Persian Dreamer had over three lengths to spare with Dorothy Lawrence at Newmarket last month but, with that experience under her belt, the latter may well get closer this time. However, they both may have their work cut out to stop GOT TO LOVE A GREY, who was a most impressive winner of a novice event at Nottingham on debut and looks an exciting filly for this season. If all goes to plan here, Royal Ascot is likely to be her next target.

PERSIAN DREAMER ran to a high level for a newcomer when making a winning debut at Newmarket and should prove hard to beat with that performance backed up by the clock. Got To Love A Grey also posted a solid timefigure when scoring by a wide margin at Nottingham and is a clear-next best.

There was a lot to like about PERSIAN DREAMER's dominant debut win at Newmarket and she is taken to make it two out of two.

Silver Lady won well on debut at Newmarket and two subsequent winners have already come out of that race, so she has to be respected. However, preference is for STORMY SEA, who showed an impressive turn of foot to put her rivals to the sword last time at Haydock. She is a half-sister to Bay Bridge and, with any amount of improvement to come, she merits plenty of respect. Orchid Bloom is another to note.

QUEEN FOR YOU and Silver Lady both stand out having made striking winning debuts and are open to oodles of improvement. The former edges the vote though, her Group 1 entry in the Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot suggesting she's held in really high regard by the Gosdens and the hint should be taken now that she steps up in grade. Stormy Sea is another promising filly who's in excellent hands.

Juliet Sierra has Group 1 form but gives 5lb all round. QUEEN FOR YOU, Silver Lady and Stormy Sea have made big impressions.

Nobel could have more to offer this season and he's not one to take lightly now entering handicaps off what looks a fair opening mark. Preference, however, is for C&D winner EEETEE, who bounced back to form with a ready success at Haydock last month. The five-year-old looks more than capable of shrugging off a 4lb rise. Lightening Company also returned to winning ways at Pontefract last month and is another of interest for an in-form yard.

This is wide open and though he hasn't been seen for nearly 2 years, ARAMAIC can pick up from where he left off in 2021 and regain the winning thread for his top yard. Spirit Dancer took his form up a notch last season, so Richard Fahey's charge is fancied to give the selection most to think about, with Nobel and Eeetee another couple meriting consideration.

The very lightly raced 4yo MARHABA THE CHAMP returns to action having had wind surgery and there can be optimism he is on a good mark.

QUICKTHORN (sixth) was well behind Broome (first) when they met in the Dubai Gold Cup in March, but that was the six-year-old's first run of the season so there is every chance he will improve upon that effort. A progressive stayer throughout last season, including a career-best performance when bolting up in the Lonsdale Cup here, he can bounce back to winning ways. Eldar Eldarov may have disappointed when last seen on British Champions Day, but he was a determined winner of the St Leger before that and promises much as a four-year-old. Giavellotto and Siskany are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

SISKANY and Broome fought out a fine finish in Meydan's Dubai Gold Cup last time and Charlie Appleby's likeable sort is fancied to turn the tables on Aidan O'Brien's doughty 7-y-o meeting him on 3 lb better terms here with this shorter trip also likely to suit him more. This is no two-horse race though with last year's St Leger hero Eldar Eldarov and wide-margin Lonsdale Cup winner Quickthorn also well in the mix in a fascinating Yorkshire Cup.

The key may well be the Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan, on which evidence SISKANY (nap) has a good chance to reverse placings with Broome.

Mostabshir arguably sets the standard based on his impressive Kempton win last year and his fifth in the Craven was also promising. That said, Jim Crowley has chosen KATHAB over him and the son of Dark Angel may struggle to give 6lb and a beating to the selection. William Haggas' gelding only found one too good on his debut in the Wood Ditton last month and he is fully entitled to improve for that experience. New Business was only a place back in third on that occasion and is another to note, along with Ziryab.

MOSTABSHIR was still green in the Craven, and he'd looked a smart prospect on debut, so his profile rather stands out in the context of this race. Kathab is an expensive Kingman gelding who's likely to take a step forward, so he's respected, along with another once-raced pair New Business and Ziryab (selection's stablemate).

The Shadwell pair have the best form and it could be significant that Jim Crowley rides KATHAB as opposed to Mostabshir.

Mark Walford's string have been in excellent form recently and IT JUST TAKES TIME gets the vote to follow up his Thirsk victory from last week. The 5lb penalty is negated by Jonny Peate's claim and the step back up in trip is unlikely to inconvenience him. Tiempo Star won on his return to action at Chelmsford and may just be the type to kick on after some below-par efforts last season. Titan Rock, No Nay Nicki and Ataser are others worth a place on the shortlist.

IT JUST TAKES TIME just keeps on getting better and looks well treated under a penalty for last week's ready Thirsk success. The chief threat may come from fellow-last-time out scorers Tiempo Star and Titan Rock, the mount of William Buick.

The filly NO NAY NICKI was a good second of 14 off today's mark over C&D last August and is taken to make a winning return.

A tentative vote goes to SPARTAN ARROW, who could not have won any easier at Brighton last time out, and an opening mark of 82 could greatly underestimate him on his handicap debut. Runner-up on his last two starts, Winter Crown looks very dangerous off a featherweight, while Rhythm N Hooves arrives on the back of a bloodless success at Chelmsford last month. Last-time-out winners Miss Brazen and Tatterstall are others to note, as well as Just A Spark and Thankuappreciate.

RHYTHM N HOOVES has made a positive start on the AW and, such was the ease in which he defied a penalty in a novice at Chelmsford last time, he's likely to prove better than a mark of 88. He's preferred to Spartan Arrow, who arrives with a similar profile, and a solid showing is also expected from She's Centimental.

A cracking race in which SHE'S CENTIMENTAL can continue her progress on her turf debut. Spartan Arrow is next best.

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.
