1st (2)  (13/2 +46%)Glenfinnan |
13/2(+46%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Glenfinnan 13/2, Got off the mark for new yard at Ascot (6f) in May also fifth in the Wokingham there. Well held in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time so needs to get back on track. Campaigned at 6f this term, winning once; recorded a 7f win under Oisin Murphy last year. |
|||
2nd (4)  (10/1 +0%)Havana Blue |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Havana Blue 10/1, Capitalised on a reduced mark when landing 7-runner handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 17 days ago, always well positioned. Up 4 lb in tougher race but he still can't be discounted. Back in clover at Beverley this month; gained back-to-back wins last term; appealing. |
|||
3rd (1)  (10/1 -82%)Star Of Orion |
10/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Star Of Orion 10/1, Back to his best for his new yard when ½-length second of 6 to Waiting All Night in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 15 days ago. Must enter calculations with cheekpieces added. Ties in with Waiting All Night on latest effort (second run for new yard); possibilities. |
|||
4th (5)  (7/1 -56%)Waiting All Night |
7/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Waiting All Night 7/1, Made it two wins in his last three runs in 6-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 15 days ago by ½ length from Star of Orion. Not taken lightly in his current mood despite a 4 lb rise. In good form at Newmarket this summer, including two August wins; major contender. |
|||
5th (6)  (7/2 +36%)Spanish Blaze |
7/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Spanish Blaze 7/2, C&D winner in June and in good form since, fifth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Can give another good account off the same mark. Form figures over C&D read 112; successful on this card last year and warrants respect. |
|||
6th (8)  (5/1 +29%)Lyndon B |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lyndon B 5/1, It's now 12 runs since his last win in 2022 but he was unlucky when second of 15 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 15 days ago, finishing well after meeting trouble. Raised 3 lb for that but it shouldn't prevent him going well. Unlucky at Newbury last time; on a two-year losing spell but holds a fighting chance. |
|||
7th (9)  (7/1 +22%)Feel The Need |
7/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Feel The Need 7/1, Resumed winning ways at York in May and backed it up with a very good second of 16 there following month. Up 2 lb but he can go well again after a break. In particularly good form at York since returned to turf; enters calculations. |
|||
8th (3)  (28/1 -133%)Accidental Agent |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Accidental Agent 28/1, It's now 16 runs since his last win in 2022 and only eighth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Others are preferred. Hinted at retaining ability on reappearance but losing spell goes back to April 2022. |
|||
9th (10)  (17/2 +58%)Mr Baloo |
17/2(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Mr Baloo 17/2, Has raised his game this season, bagging 7f/1m handicaps at Kempton and a solid fifth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good) when last seen out in May. One to consider after a break. Has gained his 2024 wins on AW; remains on highest mark and goes up in grade. |
|||
10th (7)  (12/1 +40%)Sir Les Patterson |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Sir Les Patterson 12/1, Won a pair of 7f AW novices but dropped away tamely when last of 12 in the Silver Bowl at Haydock on his turf/handicap debut in May. Fared no better in the Britannia at Royal Ascot, so he needs to get back on track having been gelded since last seen. 2-2 over this distance (AW wins) but still has something to prove on turf. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Waiting All Night narrowly accounted for Star Of Orion (second) when scoring at Newmarket a couple of weeks ago and both have to be respected here on the back of those efforts. That said, preference is for FEEL THE NEED, who was far from disgraced when chasing home a very well-handicapped rival when last seen at York in June. Off just a 2lb higher mark, the four-year-old has to be of interest.
This is wide open but LYNDON B signalled he's ready to go in again when an unlucky Newbury second last time out so edges the vote. Waiting All Night comes here in top form so heads the list of dangers, although Star of Orion, Feel The Need and Havana Blue all bring solid credentials too. Mr Baloo completes the shortlist.
Judged on 2023 data, northern raider HAVANA BLUE (nap) looks capable of following up his Beverley win. Spanish Blaze is feared most.

1st (9)  (13/8 -35%)Tamfana |
13/8(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Tamfana 13/8, Smart filly who was unlucky not to win the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket. Good third in Prix de Diane at Chantilly next time before respectable fourth in Grand Prix de Paris at Longchamp, giving the impression another step up in trip stretched her stamina. Clear form pick back down in distance/grade. Top rated in this field and brings Group 1 form (1m-1m4f); appears to have a great chance. |
|||
2nd (2)  (10/3 +58%)Doha |
10/3(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Doha 10/3, Regally bred filly who is progressing nicely, following 1m Royal Ascot handicap success by finishing second in a listed race at Pontefract (1m again). Ran as well as could have been expected when fifth of 9 in Nassau Stakes at Goodwood since and respected back down in class. Ran well in the Nassau; improving filly who warrants respect back down in class. |
|||
3rd (4)  (50/1 +50%)Imperial Quarter |
50/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Imperial Quarter 50/1, Useful filly who ran well when close fourth in handicap at Goodwood last month but this is a big ask. Good fourth in Glorious Goodwood handicap; bottom of this pack on ratings. |
|||
4th (8)  (12/1 -9%)Spiritual |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Spiritual 12/1, Highly tried since winning on debut and finally justified such campaigning when making all in listed race over C&D (soft) at Eclipse meeting. Not in same form in Deauville Group 3 since, however, and worth noting both her successes were in the mud. Best form when winning C&D Listed event in July but that was on soft ground. |
|||
5th (7)  (20/1 -150%)Rolica |
20/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Rolica 20/1, Stepped up on debut run when making a winning return in Newmarket maiden. Excellent effort fast-tracked from maidens to Group 1 level when sixth in 1000 Guineas next time before failing to settle in Group 2 at Chantilly. Not taken lightly back from a break. Good sixth in the 1,000 Guineas on last British start; may rate higher still. |
|||
6th (6)  (25/1 -178%)Bright Thunder |
25/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bright Thunder 25/1, Night of Thunder filly who looked above average when making a ready winning start at Haydock. Progress next 2 starts, resuming winning ways in listed race at Chantilly in June. Easy to excuse next run and remains with potential. Better than bare result in French G3 last time; may still have more to offer. |
|||
7th (5)  (10/1 +60%)Naomi Lapaglia |
10/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Naomi Lapaglia 10/1, Useful filly who is still improving if anything, 1½ lengths third of 9 to Choisya in listed race (17/2) at Haydock (8.2f, good to firm) 21 days ago, nearest finish. Should give her running again but likely to find a few too good. Ties in with Doom and Choisya on recent form; proving consistent. |
|||
8th (1)  (8/1 +33%)Choisya |
8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Choisya 8/1, Useful filly. Four wins from 11 runs last year and acquitted herself with credit both starts in the spring. Returned from a break better than ever when winning listed race at Haydock 3 weeks ago and looks ready for this step up in class. Listed scorer at Haydock last time and looks ready for a crack at Group level. |
|||
9th (3)  (13/2 +35%)Doom |
13/2(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Doom 13/2, Consistent filly who signed off for 2023 with success in French listed event (7f). Good placed efforts in pattern events all 3 starts this term, outclassed only by a very smart prospect in Valiant Fillies' Stakes at Ascot latest. Steadily progressive; latest effort is strong form; dam won this race in 2012; solid. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
TAMFANA did not appear to fully see out the trip when fourth in the Grand Prix de Paris last month, but that was still a top effort in Group 1 company. She was previously a close third in the Prix de Diane and an arguably unlucky loser in the 1000 Guineas. A reproduction of any of those efforts would give David Menuisier's filly a big chance here. Doha is another who may benefit from a drop in trip and grade following an encouraging effort in the Nassau at Goodwood. Spiritual should not be discounted based on her C&D win in July, while Bright Thunder and Rolica are also noted.
TAMFANA's last run at this trip was an unlucky defeat in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket so is clearly the one to beat down in class. Likeable older fillies Choisya and Doha can follow her home.
Tamfana is not opposed lightly but a solid alternative is DOOM. The shortlist is completed by Rolica and Doha.

1st (5)  (11/2 +61%)Flying Frontier |
11/2(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Flying Frontier 11/2, Won maiden/novice events on turf last June and resumed with an encouraging run over 1m here in June. A subsequent Yarmouth run was disappointing but it was almost so bad that something can't have been right. Progressive form last season; not disgraced on reappearance but last of 12 on latest start. |
|||
2nd (4)  (3/1 -33%)Balmacara |
3/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Balmacara 3/1, Pair of Doncaster novice wins came over 7f but he had no problem with this trip when a fine second of 10 in C&D handicap on Eclipse day. First-time hood worn on that occasion is retained. Should go well. Resumed improvement over C&D last time but unraced on anything firmer than good to soft. |
|||
3rd (2)  (13/8 +41%)Involvement |
13/8(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Involvement 13/8, Good efforts in the Silver Bowl at Haydock and Britannia at Royal Ascot before coming good when stepped up to 1¼m at the Newmarket July meeting. Only a respectable fourth in a French listed race since but high on the shortlist back in a handicap under Buick. 1m2f win at Newmarket July festival; not disgraced in French Listed race on latest start. |
|||
4th (1)  (11/2 -38%)Sean |
11/2(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Sean 11/2, As good as ever on his last 2 starts, third of 9 in 1¼m Windsor handicap 16 days ago, finishing with running left. Likely to be on the premises again. 0-8 for current yard but mostly on the premises and close up on last two outings. |
|||
5th (3)  (33/1 +0%)Sierra Blanca |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sierra Blanca 33/1, Useful for Aidan O'Brien but has struggled in 3 handicaps since coming to Britain. More positive latest; too headstrong on sole attempt at 1m2f but has stamina on dam's side. |
|||
6th (7)  (6/1 +25%)Dambuster |
6/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Dambuster 6/1, Maiden/novice winner but hasn't managed to kick on in 2 handicaps since, showing an awkward side again when sixth at Ascot (1½m) in a visor (retained) 3 weeks ago. 3 lb out of handicap. This lightly raced 3yo could have more to offer but he is 3lb out of the handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Balmacara has to be of interest having pulled 13 lengths clear of the third when filling second place over C&D on her latest outing in July. A 6lb rise for that effort is fair and another good run can be expected. That said, a chance can be taken with SEAN, who caught the eye when third over this trip at Windsor last time and that followed an encouraging second at Ascot. Involvement should benefit from this return to handicap company, while Wonder Legend must not be written off on just his second start this season.
INVOLVEMENT boasts some strong 3-y-o handicap form and might be the way to go. Fellow 3-y-o Balmacara coped fine with the step up to 1¼m when chasing home Persica here last month and is second choice ahead of Jamie Osborne's Sean.
Involvement and Balmacara are respected but SEAN has been knocking on the door again recently and gets the vote.

1st (2)  (5/4 +33%)Field Of Gold |
5/4(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Field Of Gold 5/4, €530,000 Kingman colt was an impressive winner of a 7f Newmarket July meeting maiden. Smart prospect for a top stable with a strong record in this race. Scored readily at the Newmarket July festival on second start and looks a smart prospect. |
|||
2nd (4)  (15/2 -50%)Matauri Bay |
15/2(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Matauri Bay 15/2, 500,000 gns yearling who overcame a sluggish start to make a winning debut at Leicester (7f) 3 weeks ago, looking very useful. Big player. Justified favouritism at Leicester; runner-up has boosted the form since; promising colt. |
|||
3rd (5)  (15/8 +38%)Royal Playwright |
15/8(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Royal Playwright 15/8, From a family which has served his owner well and he looked well above average when readily making a winning start at Salisbury (7f, good) 49 days ago. Definitely more to come. Recorded a 3l win at Salisbury seven weeks ago and looks a useful prospect; interesting. |
|||
4th (6)  (15/2 -7%)Tiger Mask |
15/2(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Tiger Mask 15/2, Havana Grey colt who has improved with each outing to date, making all in 7f Ascot novice in July and 3¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Aomori City in Group 2 Vintage at Goodwood (7f again) since. Ran well in the Vintage Stakes; brings strong form and progressive RPRs to this race. |
|||
5th (3)  (16/1 +0%)Hott Shott |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hott Shott 16/1, Too Darn Hot colt who built on his Kempton debut in June when finishing strongly to force a dead heat in a 7f Glorious Goodwood maiden (good to firm) 4 weeks ago. Capable of better. Forced a dead-heat in Glorious Goodwood maiden on second run; sire won this race in 2018. |
|||
6th (7)  (50/1 -100%)Victory Sound |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Victory Sound 50/1, All the sharper for his debut when shading a tight finish in 7f Haydock maiden in June. This is a big jump in class 10 weeks on but he should have more to offer. Absent since his narrow win at Haydock ten weeks ago; this is a much harder task. |
|||
7th (8)  (80/1 -60%)Zou's Your Daddy |
80/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Zou's Your Daddy 80/1, Made a promising start to his career when narrowly denied on his 7f Kempton debut 19 days ago but would still be a shock winner stepped up to Group level on the back of that. Runner-up in Kempton AW maiden; bottom of this pack on bare figures. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
The form of MATAURI BAY's debut victory over 7f at Leicester was given a timely boost when the runner-up finished an excellent second in a hot maiden at York last week and, having already shown his aptitude for a stiff finish on a testing track, this son of Lope De Vega might have too much in his locker for these rivals. Field Of Gold looks the main danger to the selection on the back of an impressive victory over 7f at Newmarket last month, while Salisbury debut winner Royal Playwright is also considered.
The Gosden stable's good record in this Group 3 contest swings the vote the way of FIELD OF GOLD over Matauri Bay, with both impressing when landing maiden/novice wins last time. Royal Playwright also looked useful when scoring on his debut and is next on the list.
Some promising colts lock horns in a typically interesting Solario. First choice is ROYAL PLAYWRIGHT, ahead of Field Of Gold.

1st (3)  (5/6 +49%)Flight |
5/6(+49%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Flight 5/6, Runner-up on debut at Newbury and again second when chasing home a promising Godolphin filly at Newmarket (7f, good) last month. The third in that maiden failed to boost the form next time out but the winner and fourth have done so. Sets the standard. 2nd over 7f at Newbury (good to firm) and Newmarket (good); top on ratings; has potential. |
|||
2nd (6)  (11/2 +21%)Sea To Sky |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Sea To Sky 11/2, €70,000 foal, 80,000 gns yearling. Half-sister to useful 11f winner Sea The Thunder, while her dam, a French 9f winner who stayed 10.5f, is a half-sister to US Grade 1 1¼m winner Competitionofideas. Yard saddled the winner of this 12 months ago and the market should be informative. 80,000gns yearling; Without Parole half-sister to 1m3f winner Sea The Thunder (RPR 97). |
|||
3rd (5)  (11/4 -10%)Rockin' The Boat |
11/4(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rockin' The Boat 11/4, Half-sister to several winners and shaped well in what was probably an above-average maiden at Newmarket (7f, good) earlier this month (the two that finished in front of her both hold entries in the Group 1 Fillies' Mile). Every inch a major player here with improvement on the cards. Promising debut when third of nine at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) running on from rear. |
|||
4th (4)  (8/1 +33%)Mamma Maria |
8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mamma Maria 8/1, Finished nearer last than first on her introduction at Newmarket (7f, good) 3 weeks ago but, as a well-bred filly from a top yard, she can be expected to leave that form well behind in time. 17-2, raced rather freely and front rank 6f when 7l seventh of nine at Newmarket (7f). |
|||
5th (2)  (50/1 -178%)Cooramook |
50/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Cooramook 50/1, Foaled February 16. 100,000 gns half-sister to 2-y-o 7f/7.4f winner Eminny. This looks a tough starting point but she's one to note in the betting nonetheless. 100,000gns yearling; third foal; Mehmas half-sister to 7f/7.5f 2yo winner Eminny (RPR 88). |
|||
6th (1)  (11/1 -120%)Bayenah |
11/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bayenah 11/1, Foaled April 23. Dubawi filly. Dam, 1¼m-1½m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 12.5f Tres Blue. Obvious appeal on paper and it will be interesting to see which way she goes in the betting. By Dubawi out of Listed-placed 1m2f/1m4f winner (RPR 106); from a top yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
ROCKIN' THE BOAT fared best of those ridden off the pace when finishing an excellent third over 7f at Newmarket on her debut earlier this month and, with the likelihood of improvement to come, she edges preference. Flight was last seen finishing runner-up behind a smart sort over that same track and trip recently and she should be thereabouts with a repeat of that effort. Of the newcomers, Bayenah appeals most.
The Newmarket maiden in which ROCKIN' THE BOAT was a promising third looked like a warm race and the Acclamation filly is pretty appealing here with William Buick booked and improvement on the way. Flight is likely to make a bold bid to make it third time lucky having found just one too good in each of her two starts at top tracks. She is the clear main danger ahead of likely-looking newcomers Bayenah and Sea To Sky.
Flight is top rated but ROCKIN' THE BOAT ran on nicely for 3rd from out the back at Newmarket. Bayenah is one of the newcomers.

1st (10)  (14/1 -133%)Corriamo |
14/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Corriamo 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 9-runner nursery (2/1) at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Open to further improvement, particularly if he can break on terms, so one to consider. Produced a strong finish at Leicester (nursery debut) last time; may improve further. |
|||
2nd (8)  (11/4 +39%)Imperial Trooper |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Imperial Trooper 11/4, Belardo gelding who boasts a steadily progressive profile and opened his account with something to spare in a 4-runner novice at Ffos Las 17 days ago. Can do better still, so likely to feature. Form figures of 321 reflect his steady progress; could do well in nurseries; shortlisted. |
|||
3rd (6)  (10/3 +26%)Art Market |
10/3(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Art Market 10/3, Steadily progressive Calyx colt who won his first two starts in nurseries then shaped better than the result when sixth of 17 in a competitive event at York 9 days ago. Looks a definite player in a less-competitive environment. Respectable sixth at York when attempting to take nursery record to 3-3; remains in form. |
|||
4th (7)  (3/1 +54%)New Bombay |
3/1(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) New Bombay 3/1, New Bay colt who landed 8-runner nursery at Chester earlier this month and shaped as if still in top form for all that he was outbattled in a 4-runner event at Wolverhampton last time. Remains of interest. Impressive at Chester on most recent turf attempt; may have more to offer on grass. |

5th (9)  (40/1 -100%)Valsharah |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Valsharah 40/1, Showed ability on his second start and, while down the field at Goodwood last time, there may be more to offer now handicapping. Not exactly solid on his 6f form; something to prove off his opening mark. |
|||
6th (1)  (8/1 -129%)Love Is The Law |
8/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Love Is The Law 8/1, Built on debut promise with a ready success in a Lingfield maiden (7f) in July, before following up in similar fashion under a penalty at the same course (7.6f, good) 3 weeks ago. Big player with further improvement on the cards. Defied a penalty in Lingfield novice event three weeks ago; improving filly; respected. |
|||
7th (3)  (12/1 -33%)Blewburton |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Blewburton 12/1, Saxon Warrior gelding who made a winning debut at Leicester (5f, heavy) in April. Similar form under a penalty when third under a penalty both starts since, and opening mark seems fair. Sprinting form gives mixed messages with regard to this new trip; below par last time. |
|||
8th (5)  (16/1 -100%)Pappa Louis |
16/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Pappa Louis 16/1, Found improvement when opening account in 4-runner nursery at Newmarket (7f, good, 2/1) 21 days ago. This is tougher but he must enter calculations. Cheekpieces on first time. Fortunate to hold on at Newmarket last time, with runner-up Jet Packer looking unlucky. |
|||
9th (2)  (20/1 -122%)Jet Packer |
20/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Jet Packer 20/1, Much better for debut when second in a 6f novice at Newbury and was back on track when second to Pappa Louis in nursery at Newmarket last time. Case for saying he can turn the form around with that rival. Unlucky second to Pappa Louis at Newmarket last time; possibilities granted better fortune. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Love Is The Law defied her penalty with a convincing success in a novice stakes at Lingfield earlier in the month and she should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick on her nursery debut. However, IMPERIAL TROOPER looks the way to go. Ed Walker's gelding got off the mark in heavy conditions at Ffos Las on his latest outing and has improved with his each of his three starts to date. With William Buick booked on his nursery bow, he gets the nod. Jet Packer and Pappa Louis are others to note.
LOVE IS THE LAW has a positive profile and was going away at the finish when landing a double at Lingfield three weeks ago, so she's fancied to complete the hat-trick on handicap debut. Art Market can get back on the up having not been seen to best effect at York and there's hope for Imperial Trooper.
Preference is for NEW BOMBAY who won in great style on his last turf start. Imperial Trooper is second choice.

1st (2)  (7/1 -56%)Good Earth |
7/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Good Earth 7/1, Had been given a big chance by the handicapper and got his head back in front for the first time in just over a year at Newmarket (5f, soft) 7 days ago, the rain that fell very much in his favour. Remains feasibly treated on old form and his versatility as regards ground is an asset. Back to winning ways at Newmarket last week; 5lb rise fair enough; good C&D record; solid. |
|||
2nd (3)  (7/2 +56%)Lil Guff |
7/2(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lil Guff 7/2, Improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap over C&D in July and did just about enough to think she's still in form when sixth at Ascot 24 hours later. Below that level at Windsor since but fancied to bounce back sporting first-time headgear. C&D record of 1231 & latest run can be excused; chance if the headgear has desired effect. |
|||
3rd (1)  (13/2 +13%)Ingra Tor |
13/2(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ingra Tor 13/2, Losing run mounting and not in the same form as when placing on his last 2 starts on turf when seventh of 14 at Newcastle (6f) 9 days ago. This his first crack at the minimum trip and better showing anticipated back on turf. Drop to 5f worth exploring and this is an ease in grade; chance if wide draw no hindrance. |
|||
4th (4)  (20/1 -186%)Miss Show Off |
20/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Miss Show Off 20/1, Showed much improved form to get off the mark reverted to front-running tactics in 8-runner novice at Newbury (6f, good to firm) when last seen 14 months ago. Sent handicapping and the likelihood is she will need this outing after such an absence. 6f novice winner when last seen 422 days ago; opening mark no gift and the absence is a ?. |
|||
5th (8)  (17/2 -89%)Sarah's Verse |
17/2(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sarah's Verse 17/2, Has won 3 times already this year, latest at Ffos Las in June. Ran a cracker when a close fourth at Newbury (5.2f, good to firm) 2 weeks ago, the only one of those off the pace to make an impact. Back down in class and should remain in form. Three wins this year and remained in form since the last of them; others better treated. |
|||
6th (7)  (9/2 -35%)Spring Bloom |
9/2(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Spring Bloom 9/2, Ended a long losing run at Newmarket earlier in the month and followed up under a penalty back there (6f) just over 2 weeks ago. Return to 5f shouldn't pose any issues and the hat-trick can't be ruled out while he's in such a rich vein of form. 2nd in this race last year off 9lb higher; chasing hat-trick after two 6f Newmarket wins. |
|||
7th (9)  (13/2 +46%)Rebel Path |
13/2(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Rebel Path 13/2, Successful on second of his 2 starts in France and has been finding his way for his current yard, failing to land a blow back up in grade at Haydock (5f, firm) earlier this month. Booking of De Sousa a plus and first-time headgear could be what's required from his tumbling mark. Best runs for this yard have come over 6f; quiet latest and now tried in a visor. |
|||
8th (5)  (11/1 -22%)Glamorous Breeze |
11/1(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Glamorous Breeze 11/1, Below her last winning mark and was staying on well when third over C&D last month. Failed to build on that at Chepstow (5.1f, good to soft) subsequently so needs to get back on track. Strong traveller; handicapped to go well and she holds each-way claims. |
|||
9th (6)  (16/1 -33%)Ganesha |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ganesha 16/1, Edging back down the weights and ran respectably when fifth of 14 at York (5.4f, good to firm) just over 5 weeks ago. Career-low mark to work with but others more appealing on balance. More encouragement at York last time and he's well treated if he can build on it. |
|||
10th (10)  (14/1 +13%)Sioux Warrior |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sioux Warrior 14/1, Had a wind op before an excellent second of 9 in novice at Leicester (5f, good to firm) last month, running on. Ran poorly making handicap debut at Wolverhampton so must leave that effort behind back down to the minimum trip. Low-key handicap debut at Wolverhampton 30 days ago; needs a career best to feature. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
INGRA TOR finished midfield in a deeper contest than this at Newcastle earlier in the month and has been dropped 1lb for that performance. Jack Channon's five-year-old now competes off his last winning mark on his return to turf and that could see him back on the scoresheet. Spring Bloom justified favouritism to complete a Newmarket double over 6f last time and holds an obvious chance off a 3lb higher mark, while Miss Show Off warrants a market check on her seasonal/handicap debut.
An ultra-competitive finale and it could be worth taking a chance on REBEL PATH, who has been finding his way for his current yard but the fitting of headgear signals intent along with the booking of the experienced Silvestre De Sousa. Spring Bloom arrives on a hat-trick, but Robert Eddery's 7-y-o may have to settle for silver this time, with recent winner Good Earth and Lil Guff another couple worth mentioning, too.
The hat-trick seeking SPRING BLOOM can go one better than in the corresponding race last year. Good Earth is feared most.

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
