Spirit Of Cahala |
(6) (33/1 +18%)33/1(+18%) | (6) Spirit Of Cahala 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f), slowly away. Off 173 days ahead of this debut for new yard and needs to raise his game a touch. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Tridevi |
(16) (125/1 -25%)125/1(-25%) | (16) Tridevi 125/1, 100/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 26 days ago. Makes turf debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (8) (5/1 +29%) Big Bard |
5/1(+29%) | (8) Big Bard 5/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 7 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 54 days ago, not knocked about. Went close off a 5 lb higher mark here in October, so couldn't rule out. Cheekpieces back on. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (28/1 -27%) Firenze Rosa |
28/1(-27%) | (9) Firenze Rosa 28/1, Course winner. Tenth of 11 in handicap at this course (5.1f, good to soft, 12/1). Off 6 months ahead of this debut for new yard and it's probably best to look elsewhere. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (13) (12/1 +25%) On Edge |
12/1(+25%) | (13) On Edge 12/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f), left with too much to do. Off 146 days and will probably find a few too strong here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (4/1 +43%) Connie's Rose |
4/1(+43%) | (7) Connie's Rose 4/1, Good fourth of 17 in handicap (25/1) at Bath (5f, soft) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon. Return to this trip no bad thing (same goes for the forecast better ground) and she's a key player. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (33/1 +0%) Soldier's Son |
33/1(+0%) | (15) Soldier's Son 33/1, Remains a maiden after 33 Flat runs. 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f). Off 6 months and he's passed over. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (33/1 -65%) Kyber Crystal |
33/1(-65%) | (3) Kyber Crystal 33/1, Sixth of 8 in minor event (14/1) at Southwell (5f), slowly away. Off 159 days and back up in trip here. Looks vulnerable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (14) (10/1 -43%) Hannah's Return |
10/1(-43%) | (14) Hannah's Return 10/1, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (13/2) at Kempton (6f) 40 days ago, driven out. Nudged up just 1 lb and she should be in the thick of things if proving equally effective on turf. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (4.5/1 +40%) Joy Choi |
4.5/1(+40%) | (5) Joy Choi 4.5/1, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 20/1) 5 days ago and likely to find a few too good once more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (11/1 -144%) Rogue Star |
11/1(-144%) | (1) Rogue Star 11/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 9/2) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and could take a hand off this reduced mark if he puts his best foot forward. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (50/1 -79%) Dazzerling |
50/1(-79%) | (11) Dazzerling 50/1, Last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 50/1) on latest start in December. Placed twice off higher marks than this on turf in 2022 and possibilities if on-song back from a break. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (4) (4.5/1 +50%) Kondratiev Wave |
4.5/1(+50%) | (4) Kondratiev Wave 4.5/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. 4/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 26 days ago, left poorly placed. Down to an attractive mark but others are more convincing overall. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (2) (6/1 -50%) The Princes Poet |
6/1(-50%) | (2) The Princes Poet 6/1, Course winner. Latest win at Kempton in October. Creditable third of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Lingfield (6f, AW) when last seen in December. Goes well fresh and should have a part to play. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Based on the summary, 7/1 (14) HANNAH'S RETURN and 7/1 (7) CONNIE'S ROSE seem to be the strongest contenders as they both have recent wins and good performances in their last races. 4/1 (2) THE PRINCES POET also seems to have a good chance, as they have a recent win and perform well when fresh. 4.5/1 (1) ROGUE STAR, 7/1 (8) BIG BARD, and 28/1 (11) DAZZERLING could also potentially be in the mix. 7.5/1 (5) JOY CHOI, 9/1 (4) KONDRATIEV WAVE, 16/1 (13) ON EDGE, 20/1 (3) KYBER CRYSTAL, 22/1 (9) FIRENZE ROSA, 25/1 (10) PORT NOIR, 33/1 (15) SOLDIER'S SON, 40/1 (12) THE COLA KID, Spirit of Cahala, and 100/1 (16) TRIDEVI are less likely to do well based on their recent form and past performances.
The Gary Moore stable can do little wrong at present and preference is for BIG BARD, who bounced back to form with a solid runner-up effort at Lingfield last month. The five-year-old went close over C&D last October and he is taken to master the likes of course regular The Princes Poet and Hannah's Return, who makes her turf debut having won at Kempton last time out. Others to note include Connie's Rose, Joy Choi and Rogue Star.
CONNIE'S ROSE made an encouraging seasonal reappearance at Bath earlier this month and, entitled to come on for that, she could be the answer. Provided she takes to turf, dual all-weather scorer Hannah's Return will be a live danger, while The Princes Poet performed well on his return both last year and in 2021, and he is likely to be in the mix, too. Another for the shortlist is Big Bard, who has slipped to a dangerous mark.

1st (8) (6/1 -118%) Relief Rally |
6/1(-118%) | (8) Relief Rally 6/1, Foaled April 19. 58,000 gns yearling, Kodiac filly. Sister to smart 6f winner Koropick and half-sister to 3 winners, including winner up to 7f Batchelor Boy and 5f/6f winner Phebes Wish. Dam unraced. Obvious appeal on paper. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (3/1 +50%) Gaiden |
3/1(+50%) | (4) Gaiden 3/1, Foaled February 11. £65,000 yearling, Mehmas filly. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 12.5f) Lustrous. Represents top 2-y-o yard and it will look significant if the market vibes are upbeat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (33/1 -32%) Denruth Diamond |
33/1(-32%) | (3) Denruth Diamond 33/1, Foaled April 1. €60,000 yearling, City Light filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 9f-11f winner Monsieur Vic and 2-y-o 7f winner Jonquille. Entitled to come on for the run. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (3.33/1 +67%) Always Love You |
3.33/1(+67%) | (1) Always Love You 3.33/1, Foaled February 25. 12,000 gns yearling, Aclaim filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 6f winner City Money and 7.5f winner Evidence, both in France. Dam 9.2f-10.5f winner. Yard has madea good start to the season with its 2-y-os and she's one to note in the betting. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (125/1 -89%) Tears Of A Clown |
125/1(-89%) | (9) Tears Of A Clown 125/1, Foaled March 21. Pearl Secret filly. Dam 2-y-o 5.5f winner. Limited appeal on paper. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (18/1 +28%) Line Of Fire |
18/1(+28%) | (6) Line Of Fire 18/1, Foaled March 18. Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f-7.4f winner Sweet Gardenia. Dam, 5f winner, half-sister to useful 2-y-o 6f winner Royal Rascal. Wears hood. Like stablemate Denruth Diamond, she'll probably come on for the run. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (10/1 -100%) Lady Wulfrun |
10/1(-100%) | (5) Lady Wulfrun 10/1, Foaled April 20. Saxon Warrior filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 9f-1½m winner Encourage and 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Candle of Hope. In good hands and the market will be instructive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (7.5/1 +38%) Dainty Lady |
7.5/1(+38%) | (2) Dainty Lady 7.5/1, Foaled March 14. 20,000 gns foal, 10,000 gns yearling, Dandy Man filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Galeron and 1¼m-1½m winner Goldenfield, both useful. Dam unraced. Watch the betting for clues. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (14/1 -27%) Pickled Pepper |
14/1(-27%) | (7) Pickled Pepper 14/1, Foaled January 16. Too Darn Hot filly. Dam, useful winner up to 7f (2-y-o 5f/6f winner), half-sister to useful 1½m winner Tyson Fury. Yard seldom strikes with newcomers. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (50/1 +24%) Tejesueno |
50/1(+24%) | (10) Tejesueno 50/1, Foaled April 28. Coach House filly. Dam, 7f winner, half-sister to useful 1m winner Winfromwithin. Probably best watched on debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (4/1 -45%) Tokyo Drift |
4/1(-45%) | (11) Tokyo Drift 4/1, Once-raced maiden. 6/1, third of 8 in minor event at Kempton (5f) on debut 12 days ago. Likely to win a race or two if building on that. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 2.75/1 (8) RELIEF RALLY and 5/1 (5) LADY WULFRUN seem to have the strongest pedigrees with successful siblings and good potential. 6/1 (4) GAIDEN also represents a top yard and may be worth watching in the betting. 10/1 (1) ALWAYS LOVE YOU and 12/1 (2) DAINTY LADY also have promising pedigrees and should be noted in the market. It is unlikely that 11/1 (7) PICKLED PEPPER, 66/1 (9) TEARS OF A CLOWN, and 66/1 (10) TEJESUENO will perform strongly on debut.
Not beaten far on her debut at Kempton when only wilting from the front close home, TOKYO DRIFT showed more than enough ability to suggest that she can get off the mark in a race like this. A sister to a debut winner herself in Koropick, Relief Rally looks the pick of the newcomers, ahead of Gaiden, who is a daughter of Mehmas, an excellent influence on speed.
All but one of these are debutantes and the market will be informative. RELIEF RALLY is bred to be speedy and she gets the nod ahead of Gaiden and Lady Wulfrun. Always Love You is also appealing on paper and Tokyo Drift, who was a close third on her introduction at Kempton, could put her experience to good use and make a bold bid.
Dominic Ffrench Davis has made a bright start with his 2yos and ALWAYS LOVE YOU gets the nod. Relief Rally is second choice.

1st (5) (2.5/1 +0%) Understated |
2.5/1(+0%) | (5) Understated 2.5/1, Posted promising second of 9 in maiden at Kempton (11f) on debut in January. Open to progress and holds sound claims. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5.5/1 -144%) Shadow Dance |
5.5/1(-144%) | (4) Shadow Dance 5.5/1, Almanzor colt. Half-brother to 11.5f winner Sassifrassi. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Speciosa. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (1.75/1 +47%) Prosper Legend |
1.75/1(+47%) | (3) Prosper Legend 1.75/1, Encouraging fourth of 9 in maiden at Kempton (8f, 9/2) on debut 19 days ago, nearest finish. Up in trip. Should improve. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (4/1 +0%) Order Of Malta |
4/1(+0%) | (2) Order Of Malta 4/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 6 in minor event at Kempton (10f, 6/1) 23 days ago, not knocked about. Enters calculations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (9/1 +18%) Charlie's Choice |
9/1(+18%) | (1) Charlie's Choice 9/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 15 in minor event at Yarmouth (10.1f, heavy, 4/1) 9 days ago. Work to do. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 2.25/1 (4) SHADOW DANCE seems to be the most promising horse with a strong pedigree and a promising second-place finish in its debut race. 3.33/1 (3) PROSPER LEGEND also shows potential, having placed fourth in its debut race and expected to improve with a longer distance. 4/1 (2) ORDER OF MALTA and 11/1 (1) CHARLIE'S CHOICE have both struggled in their previous races and may be less likely to perform well.
PROSPER LEGEND didn't set the world alight on his debut at Kempton earlier in the month, but he was plenty green on that occasion and got the hang of things late on to finish a never-nearer fourth. With improvement expected on the step up in trip, he is narrowly preferred to well-bred newcomer Shadow Dance and Understated, who performed with plenty of promise on her debut in January.
This can go to UNDERSTATED, who pulled clear of the remainder when a promising second on her debut at Kempton in January. Prosper Legend may be the main danger.
Unlucky not to finish closer on his comeback, ORDER OF MALTA gets the vote on his turf debut. Prosper Legend rates the main threat.

1st (5) (1/1 +17%) Sunset Point |
1/1(+17%) | (5) Sunset Point 1/1, Thrice-raced winner. Won 12-runner minor event (7/2) at Lingfield (8f, AW) when last seen in November. Open to improvement for top connections now upped in trip for this handicap debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (4/1 +60%) Sydney Mews |
4/1(+60%) | (6) Sydney Mews 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 7 in nursery (9/2) at this C&D (good to firm) on final start of last season. Should pick up a race before long but may find one or two too good on this occasion. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4.5/1 +50%) Young And Fun |
4.5/1(+50%) | (3) Young And Fun 4.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. One win from 3 runs last year. Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 14/1) 20 days ago. Up in trip and needs to take a step forward. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (4/1 +38%) Swift Lioness |
4/1(+38%) | (4) Swift Lioness 4/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 3-runner nursery at Doncaster (8f, soft, 9/4), finding extra. Off 6 months and, with this step up in trip likely to suit, she merits respect. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based solely on this summary, as they all have different levels of experience and varying degrees of success in their previous races. However, 1.2/1 (5) SUNSET POINT and 4.5/1 (1) MAID IN KENTUCKY both have three previous wins and recently won minor events at Lingfield, which could give them an advantage in this handicap race. 6/1 (2) DAYZEE also has a recent third place finish in a handicap race and is now up in trip on turf, which could make her a strong contender. 6.5/1 (4) SWIFT LIONESS is lightly-raced but coming off a career-best win and could also perform well with the step up in trip. 9/1 (3) YOUNG AND FUN and 10/1 (6) SYDNEY MEWS may not be the top contenders in this race based on their recent performances.
Maid In Kentucky was sent on from the start to win over a mile at Lingfield in March, but she steps up in trip for her handicap bow and it will be interesting to see if the same tactics are employed. SUNSET POINT does not hold any classic entries for Charlie Appleby, but she did quicken up nicely to win going away at Lingfield over a mile, and may be better suited by this trip. Swift Lioness and Sydney Mews are also noted.
The one with the most striking potential is SUNSET POINT, who improved with each of her 3 starts as a juvenile and it's likely that this well-bred filly will make further progress now faced with a stiffer test on this handicap/turf debut. Dayzee didn't do much wrong when third on her handicap bow at Southwell and is feared most ahead of Maid In Kentucky and Swift Lioness.
From a family that get better with age, SUNSET POINT is open to further improvement now upped in trip on her turf debut.

1st (2) (2/1 -14%) Spoof |
2/1(-14%) | (2) Spoof 2/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Good third of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, heavy, 6/1) 9 days ago, running on late. Expected to be bang there. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7.5/1 -50%) Lipsink |
7.5/1(-50%) | (1) Lipsink 7.5/1, C&D winner. Blinkered for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap (6/1) at Southwell (5f) on final start of 2022. Visor back on. Others more persuasive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (7/1 +13%) Sarah's Verse |
7/1(+13%) | (6) Sarah's Verse 7/1, C&D winner. 8/1, improved on recent efforts to win 17-runner handicap at Bath (5f, soft) 17 days ago, suited by way race developed. More on her plate here having gone up 5 lb for that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (4/1 +11%) So Smart |
4/1(+11%) | (4) So Smart 4/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Winner at Leicester in October. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, heavy, 7/1) 9 days ago. Tongue strap back on and he has to enter calculations. Yard also saddles Level Up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (7.5/1 +17%) Dream By Day |
7.5/1(+17%) | (8) Dream By Day 7.5/1, Latest win at Nottingham in October. 5/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW). Off 156 days and likely to find one or two too good. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (7/1 +7%) Level Up |
7/1(+7%) | (5) Level Up 7/1, 4/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 13 days ago, well on top finish. More needed up 5 lb in this stronger race. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (8.5/1 +47%) Some Nightmare |
8.5/1(+47%) | (3) Some Nightmare 8.5/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Ayr (6f, heavy). Off 6 months and cheekpieces back on. Others make more appeal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (22/1 -10%) Glamorous Express |
22/1(-10%) | (7) Glamorous Express 22/1, 16/1, 18¾ lengths last of 9 to So Smart in handicap at Leicester (5f, heavy). Off 6 months and needs to get back on track. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Based on the summary, the horse that is predicted to do well is 4.5/1 (4) SO SMART as it is described as a
Pat Cosgrave has an enforced holiday to come but he may add another winner first if SO SMART improves for his short-head Yarmouth second on his first start of the year. Caught on the line that day, he would be a deserved winner. Stable companion Level Up is entitled to have a say, but if Sarah's Verse makes the most of the eight stall, she may be the bigger danger.
The vote goes to SPOOF, who looked unlucky when going down narrowly at Yarmouth where he was denied a clear run at a crucial stage. He has clearly resumed in good order (also went close on his seasonal reappearance at Doncaster) and remains on a handy mark. So Smart, who was just ahead of the selection when second in the aforementioned Yarmouth handicap, is feared most ahead of stablemate Level Up.
A dual C&D winner who won't mind any further rain, SPOOF can turn things round with So Smart.

2.75/1(+31%) | (4) Warhol 2.75/1, Ran right up to best when third of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this course (10f, heavy) on return 7 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is one for the shortlist. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (9/1 +44%) Ship To Shore |
9/1(+44%) | (8) Ship To Shore 9/1, Creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f, 15/2) 73 days ago, well positioned. Each-way claims. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (6/1 -20%) God Of Thunder |
6/1(-20%) | (2) God Of Thunder 6/1, Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 7/1). Off 7 months. Booking of Dobbs a plus. One of likelier contenders. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (2.5/1 +29%) Lawn Ranger |
2.5/1(+29%) | (5) Lawn Ranger 2.5/1, Scored for fourth time at this course when taking 8-runner handicap (10f, heavy) 7 days ago, driven out. 4 lb penalty to carry but expected to be bang there again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (3.33/1 -11%) Vissani |
3.33/1(-11%) | (7) Vissani 3.33/1, 20/1, sixth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 30 days ago, running on. Significantly back up in trip. Others preferred. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (28/1 -300%) Agent Empire |
28/1(-300%) | (1) Agent Empire 28/1, 5/1, seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (16.8f, soft) 16 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code. Poor on last Flat outing. Makes handicap debut in this sphere. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (18/1 +10%) Fight For It |
18/1(+10%) | (6) Fight For It 18/1, 50/1, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (16f, good to soft) 140 days ago. Off 140 days. Tongue strap on 1st time, cheekpieces on 1st time. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (18/1 -80%) Bluenose Belle |
18/1(-80%) | (3) Bluenose Belle 18/1, Latest win at Kempton in January. Sixth of 8 in handicap at same course (12f, 10/3) 54 days ago but had excuses on that occasion and enters calculations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (125/1 -56%) Moorgate |
125/1(-56%) | (10) Moorgate 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Last of 8 in minor event (250/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 26 days ago. Plenty to do on handicap debut, particularly from 6 lb out of the weights. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 3.5/1 (5) LAWN RANGER seems to be the most likely to do well since it has recently scored its fourth win at the same course and is expected to be a top contender despite having a 4 lb penalty to carry. 4/1 (4) WARHOL and 5/1 (2) GOD OF THUNDER are also mentioned as contenders and ones to watch out for, but 3.5/1 (5) LAWN RANGER seems to have the strongest recent form. The rest of the horses seem less likely to win or place in the race.
Lawn Ranger won his first race since 2021 when steered to the front by Robert Havlin, who keeps the ride this afternoon as the eight-year-old looks to follow up under a 4lb penalty. He can go well, but if WARHOL steps up on his course third off the same mark, the added yardage here may see him emerge victorious. God Of Thunder is another who warrants plenty of respect as he returns from a gelding operation.
WARHOL didn't get the clearest of runs when a good third on his reappearance at this course last week and is taken to go one better. Lawn Ranger and God of Thunder should also go well.
Course specialist Lawn Ranger should go well again but VISSANI has been offering more of late and can bounce back.

1st (1) (5/1 -25%) Talap |
5/1(-25%) | (1) Talap 5/1, Latest win at Cagnes-Sur-Mer in February. 16/1, shaped better than on his British debut when sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 6 days ago, no room well inside final 1f. Not dismissed. Raced keenly and hit traffic on the AW latest; that was more like it; won't mind any rain. |

2nd (8) (3.5/1 +36%) Rick Blaine |
3.5/1(+36%) | (8) Rick Blaine 3.5/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. 16/5 and visored for 1st time, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, soft) 17 days ago, every chance when hanging left over 1f out. Lurks on a dangerous mark. Good support back from wind surgery early in the month and that gave something to build on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (11/1 +8%) Manor Park |
11/1(+8%) | (6) Manor Park 11/1, C&D winner. Given a considerate return from 5 months off when ninth of 13 in handicap (40/1) at Kempton (12f) 12 days ago. Could well make his presence felt with that under his belt. C&D winner in the past but is better over hurdles now; again no sign of the cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (3/1 -9%) Mrs Meader |
3/1(-9%) | (3) Mrs Meader 3/1, Took a while to shed her maiden tag but after doing so at Newbury last June she went on to add two more handicaps to her tally, signing off with a second success at Newbury (1½m, heavy) in October. Shaped as if needing the run on return and should be spot on for this. Showed enough on comeback, off today's career-high mark, to suggest she can make an impact. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (16/1 -14%) Wise Glory |
16/1(-14%) | (2) Wise Glory 16/1, Out of sorts for some time, thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, good to soft, 125/1) when last seen 5 months ago. Needs this switch back to the Flat to spark some sort of revival. Regressed since joining from Paul Nicholls; was running poorly over hurdles when last seen. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (40/1 -233%) Chargo |
40/1(-233%) | (7) Chargo 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. First run since leaving Gordon Elliott when fourth of 7 in maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 33/1). Off 5 months ahead of this handicap debut and she needs to bounce back. Expensive to follow in Ireland; better off now into a handicap but needs a deal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (10/1 +17%) Midrarr |
10/1(+17%) | (4) Midrarr 10/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Ran poorly after 4 months off when eighth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 24 days ago. Wins have come in the summer and she didn't offer much on her comeback. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (3/1 +10%) Waterloo Sunset |
3/1(+10%) | (5) Waterloo Sunset 3/1, 7/2, ran creditably after 5 months off when fourth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 26 days ago, keeping on late after finding trouble at a crucial stage. In the mix. Has only been seen sporadically but not beaten far on recent comeback and could go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Based on the summary, 2.75/1 (3) MRS MEADER and 5.5/1 (8) RICK BLAINE seem to be the strongest contenders as they have recent good form in handicaps and are both lurking on dangerous marks. 3.33/1 (5) WATERLOO SUNSET and 12/1 (6) MANOR PARK could also be in the mix based on their recent performances and track record. 4/1 (1) TALAP, 12/1 (7) CHARGO, 14/1 (2) WISE GLORY, and 50/1 (9) OCEAN REACH seem to have more to prove or have been out of form for a while.
MRS MEADER performed with credit during a six-race campaign last year, winning three times. It's possible she needed the run when fourth on her reappearance at Doncaster 23 days ago and she may well be up to posting a personal best with that effort under her belt. Waterloo Sunset is open to improvement over the trip and is feared, while Chargo also merits consideration.
Cases can be made for a few of these, but MRS MEADER enjoyed a fruitful 2022 campaign and, having shaped as if the run was needed when fourth on return at Doncaster recently, Julia Feilden's mare can regain the winning thread. Waterloo Sunset found trouble at a crucial stage on reappearance recently so he could emerge as the main danger, with Rick Blaine and Talap also considered.
Entitled to have come on for her comeback, MRS MEADER can make it four wins from her last six starts. Waterloo Sunset is next best.

1st (5) (3.5/1 -27%) Sparks Fly |
3.5/1(-27%) | (5) Sparks Fly 3.5/1, Promising individual. Well-backed 7/2, again shaped well when third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago, conceding first run. Makes turf debut. Shortlist material. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (5/1 +9%) Racing Demon |
5/1(+9%) | (10) Racing Demon 5/1, Took another step back in the right direction when second of 8 in handicap (7/1) at Kempton (8f) 7 days ago, keeping on when edging right final 1f. Not taken lightly back on turf. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (10/1 +17%) Greavsie |
10/1(+17%) | (1) Greavsie 10/1, Temperamental sort. 12/1, wasn't disgraced under a change of tactics when seventh of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 12 days ago. He's vulnerable to less-exposed sorts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (3/1 +63%) Chinthurst |
3/1(+63%) | (8) Chinthurst 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Left previous efforts behind when second of 7 on nursery debut at Brighton (7f, good to soft, well-backed 11/2) 6 months ago. Gelded in the interim and not dismissed on return. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (4/1 +20%) Harry The Haggler |
4/1(+20%) | (7) Harry The Haggler 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 5/2, improved when second of 11 on handicap debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) 4 weeks ago. May build on that here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (14/1 +30%) Rhea Of The Year |
14/1(+30%) | (3) Rhea Of The Year 14/1, Ran poorly after 3 months off when eighth of 10 in minor event at Kempton (6f, 28/1). Off 5 months. Significantly upped in trip for handicap debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (40/1 +60%) The Game Is Up |
40/1(+60%) | (11) The Game Is Up 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 125/1, tenth of 11 on nursery debut at Kempton (8f), weakening over 1f out. Difficult ask returning from 5 months off. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (14/1 -17%) Winter Moon |
14/1(-17%) | (4) Winter Moon 14/1, 125/1, offered something to work on having her first run since leaving Andrew Balding when ninth of 12 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f) 18 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap debut. Likely to improve. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (10/1 +38%) Romantic Sunlight |
10/1(+38%) | (9) Romantic Sunlight 10/1, Off the mark on her second start in handicaps last year but made little impression when eighth of 11 in nursery at Kempton (8f, 22/1) when last seen 5 months ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
It is difficult to determine with certainty which horse will do well based on the summary provided. However, 3/1 (5) SPARKS FLY and 5.5/1 (7) HARRY THE HAGGLER seem to have shown recent improvement and have performed well in previous races. 16/1 (4) WINTER MOON is also worth considering as she is making her handicap debut and may improve.
TWILIGHT GUEST is still low mileage and looks an interesting betting proposition with first-time cheekpieces applied. This will be only his second attempt over 1m and, given he was racing off the back of a 187-day absence at Yarmouth nine days ago, it's feasible to expect an improved effort today. Chinthurst and Greavsie have form that ties in with the selection and are feared most, although support in the betting market for Harry The Haggler would be dangerous to ignore.
A tricky finale to solve but SPARKS FLY again shaped well having conceded first run when third at Wolverhampton last month, so David Loughnane's filly gets the nod to make a winning start on turf. Racing Demon took another step back in the right direction at Kempton last week so he could be the one to give the selection most to think about, ahead of Man Made of Smoke and Harry The Haggler.
Second to a subsequent winner last month, HARRY THE HAGGLER (nap) remains open to improvement. Sparks Fly is second choice.
Ths is the racecard key.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. 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.
