---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (12) (14/1 +44%) Empirestateofmind |
14/1(+44%) | (12) Empirestateofmind 14/1, It's now 14 runs since his last win in 2022 and he came in only twenty first of 31 in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (9f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Others appeal more. It's been a light season and he finished in the bottom half in the Cambridgeshire. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (15) (13/2 +54%) Thunder Roar |
13/2(+54%) | (15) Thunder Roar 13/2, Course winner who recorded a good fourth of 11 in conditions event at Ascot (8f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts back in handicap company. Has been running well and this is his sort of race on ground he likes. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (16) (33/1 -32%) Barley |
33/1(-32%) | (16) Barley 33/1, Scored at Carlisle (1m) in June and in good order until only eighth of 11 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Sort to bounce back. Consistent but whether he's quite up to bagging a Class 2 handicap is questionable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (13/2 +28%) Hafeet Alain |
13/2(+28%) | (4) Hafeet Alain 13/2, Took this 12 months ago and comes here on the back of a good fourth of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, heavy) 16 days ago. Player. Last year's winner; returns in fair form and being back in a bigger field will help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (22/1 -10%) Rhythm Master |
22/1(-10%) | (8) Rhythm Master 22/1, It's now 11 runs since his last win in 2022 but he wasn't disgraced when seventh of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good) 27 days ago, set a lot to do. Merits consideration. Only 2l away at Thirsk two starts ago and races either side of that haven't gone to plan. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 -32%) Box To Box |
33/1(-32%) | (7) Box To Box 33/1, Winless this season and poorly drawn when last of 10 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 34 days ago. No forlorn hope off an easing mark. Finished well down the field in his last three races and saves his best form for Chester. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (50/1 -127%) Alzahir |
50/1(-127%) | (9) Alzahir 50/1, On a long losing run and he came in only fourth of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 50 days ago on his final run for David O'Meara. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence. Dual winner for the Gosdens but went 0-8 for David O'Meara; now with another new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (6/1 +8%) Theoryofeverything |
6/1(+8%) | (6) Theoryofeverything 6/1, Dual winner of handicaps at Hamilton (9f) and Ascot (1m) recently but only seventeenth of 31 in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (9f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Sort to bounce back with tongue strap on for 1st time. Won two of his last four but the Cambridgeshire proved too tough off this mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (17/2 -42%) Blue For You |
17/2(-42%) | (1) Blue For You 17/2, A 3-time C&D winner, latest in July, and he was set too much to do when thirteenth of 18 in handicap here 50 days ago. Expected to be bang there eased 1 lb. Goes well here and takes a welcome drop in class after two tough assignments. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (12/1 +33%) Zealot |
12/1(+33%) | (14) Zealot 12/1, Winless in 2024 but he comes here in very good order, second of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (9f, heavy) last month. Can go well again. All eight wins have been on the AW and he's been coming up short in weaker handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (15/2 +53%) Look Back Smiling |
15/2(+53%) | (13) Look Back Smiling 15/2, Resumed with success in Spring Mile at Doncaster in March (heavy) and back in decent nick after a 4-month break, seventh of 31 in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket last time. Not ruled out with underfoot conditions to suit. Habitual slow-starter and after another he did well to be seventh in the Cambridgeshire. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (11/2 +21%) Naxos |
11/2(+21%) | (3) Naxos 11/2, Off 7 monhts (tongue strap on) before posting a good third of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, heavy) 16 days ago. Can make his presence felt in his bid for a first win of 2024. 222 days off prior to his rallying third at Goodwood; gets in here off the same mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (8/1 -14%) Padishakh |
8/1(-14%) | (5) Padishakh 8/1, Useful in France and much more encouraging signs for current yard lately, runner-up in 1m Ayr handicap 20 days ago. Very much one to consider now. Useful in France; improved run last time and today's softer ground should be preferable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (11) (10/1 +0%) Navagio |
10/1(+0%) | (11) Navagio 10/1, Useful 1m/9,5f winner in Ireland who got back on track for his current yard when third in 1m Haydock handicap 13 days ago. Needs to follow it up now. Good last run and 8lb lower than when third on stable debut in the Lincoln in March. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (2) (33/1 -136%) La Trinidad |
33/1(-136%) | (2) La Trinidad 33/1, Scored at Thirsk in August but only twenty sixth of 31 in Cambridgeshire at Newmarket (9f, good to soft) 13 days ago. this C&D winner still needs considering. Better than ever this campaign but form has just dipped the last twice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (10) (80/1 -60%) Catch The Paddy |
80/1(-60%) | (10) Catch The Paddy 80/1, Unreliable type and he came in last of 18 in handicap over C&D 50 days ago. This course scorer has slipped below his last winning mark though so possibilities. Just one good run this year and soft ground looks a further blow to his chances. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Hafeet Alain remains 4lb higher than when winning this last year and needs to reverse last month's running at Goodwood with NAXOS. The latter finished a creditable third on heavy ground on that first outing since February, and a bold bid is expected from the four-year-old racing off the same mark. Padishakh went close in a competitive handicap at Ayr and can make his presence felt, while there was some cut in the ground when Blue For You scored here during the summer and he's not out of this.
David O'Meara looks to have a strong hand here and his course specialist BLUE FOR YOU is taken to edge out stablemate Padishakh who seems primed for a bold showing on the back of his good recent Ayr second. Last year's victor Hafeet Alain is another who can have a say along with Naxos, Zealot and Rhythm Master in this highly competitive handicap.
Lots with chances but the suggestion is PADISHAKH who contested last year's French Derby and returned to form with a near miss at Ayr.

Amiloc |
(1) (3/2 +57%)3/2(+57%) | (1) Amiloc 3/2, Had a bit in hand when making a winning debut at Kempton (7f) and was strong in the finish when following up in 13-runner novice at the same course (8f) 35 days ago. Looks to hold leading claims with further progress to come. Unbeaten in two AW starts and pedigree suggests he'll handle testing ground; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (7) (8/1 +50%) Mirabeau |
8/1(+50%) | (7) Mirabeau 8/1, After 4 months off, left his debut effort well behind when winning 9-runner maiden at Brighton (7f, soft) in September, drawing clear final 1f and scoring with plenty in hand. Open to further improvement so he's not ruled out. Much-improved effort to win over this trip on soft at Brighton last time; more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (13/2 +0%) Stratusnine |
13/2(+0%) | (4) Stratusnine 13/2, Shaped promisingly amidst greenness when runner-up on first 2 outings, before landing the odds in an Ayr maiden (6f, good to firm) in July. Has the potential of better still to come upped in trip, so he merits consideration after a break. Useful sort over 6f and should appreciate this trip; claims if handling this softer ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (12/1 -9%) Pellitory |
12/1(-9%) | (8) Pellitory 12/1, Continued his race by race progression when recording a first success in novice at Yarmouth (7f, good) in August. Ran at least as well when second on nursery debut at Doncaster (8f, good) last time, though he could do with learning to settle better. Progressive sort who stays 1m but unproven on anything slower than good to soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (66/1 -32%) Obsidian Dream |
66/1(-32%) | (12) Obsidian Dream 66/1, Found some more improvement when getting off the mark at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) in early September, but didn't make much impression when sixth of 14 in nursery at Newbury (7f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago. Has something to find. Ran respectably over this trip on nursery debut (soft) but good deal more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (14) (40/1 +0%) Prosperitas |
40/1(+0%) | (14) Prosperitas 40/1, Fair form when placing on 2 of his 3 starts so far, hampered early on the other occasion. Was doing his best work late on when third of 17 in novice at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last time, so he remains with potential upped in trip. Has shown ability in three starts but tough task on first run away from fast ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (28/1 -40%) Peter The Wolf |
28/1(-40%) | (5) Peter The Wolf 28/1, Has been going the right way with each run so far, bumping into a useful prospect when second of 7 in novice at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 18 days ago. Finished clear of the rest last time but he'll need to find more again in this contest. Needs to improve to win but has been progressive so far and should stay 7f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (8/1 +43%) Imperial Trooper |
8/1(+43%) | (6) Imperial Trooper 8/1, Opened account at the third attempt at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy) in August, before headed final strides on nursery debut at Sandown. Not discredited in valuable sales race at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 13 days ago and he can give his running once more. Ground won't be an issue and is a useful sort who should give another good account. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (15/2 +53%) Big Sip |
15/2(+53%) | (13) Big Sip 15/2, In need of the experience first 2 starts, before showing improved form upped in trip when second in a Kempton novice (8f) in August, pulling well clear of the remainder. Likely to do better still and he could be in the mix. Chinned at short price last time but still a respectable effort; claims if handling ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (8/1 -45%) Praetorian |
8/1(-45%) | (9) Praetorian 8/1, Placed on first 3 starts, including when narrowly denied at this C&D in July, before getting off the mark at Brighton (7f, good) in August. First below-par effort at Bro Park 26 days ago, but no surprise to see him get back on track with cheekpieces applied. Not at best in cheekpieces in Sweden last time and yet to race on ground softer than good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (100/1 -203%) Sir David |
100/1(-203%) | (10) Sir David 100/1, Built on debut promise when third behind a pair of interesting newcomers in a Ripon maiden (6f, good) in August. However, failed to repeat that effort when sixth of 17 in novice at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) last month. Others preferred. Fair form at best in three starts and plenty to prove up in trip in these conditions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (66/1 -560%) Nahash |
66/1(-560%) | (11) Nahash 66/1, Encouraging third at Chelmsford on debut and stepped forward from that effort when making all in 10-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 20 days ago. Further progress required as he makes his first start on turf. Stepped up on first run when scoring over 7f at Wolverhampton; more needed on turf debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (10/1 -25%) Mr Fantastic |
10/1(-25%) | (3) Mr Fantastic 10/1, Has made a promising start, improving again when runner-up in an Ascot novice (7f, good to soft) on his third outing. Made the most of a good opportunity at Newcastle (7.1f) 17 days ago and he's respected now that he's up and running. Progressive sort who won on AW debut last time; handles soft and each-way claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (150/1 -436%) Bear Kode |
150/1(-436%) | (2) Bear Kode 150/1, Still green but confirmed debut promise when scoring at Newcastle (7f) in July. However, has finished well held both starts since, including in valuable sales race at this course (6f) on the first occasion. Others more persuasive. Fair form to win on AW but well beaten in cheekpieces since; ground an unknown; opposable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (15) (125/1 -56%) Inconspicuous |
125/1(-56%) | (15) Inconspicuous 125/1, Winner at this course (6f) in June, his final outing for Ollie Pears. However, has struggled for form since switched to nurseries for current yard, ninth of 10 at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Visor now reached for. Stiff task at these weights and opposable on ground he's yet to tackle. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Unbeaten in a couple of outings at Kempton, AMILOC has a leading chance on today's terms despite his penalty. The son of Postponed beat a subsequent winner with plenty to left in the tank on his latest start and can go close if proving as effective on this surface. Pellitory produced another good effort in a nursery over a mile at Doncaster and has solid claims on that showing, while Praetorian wasn't at his best on a trip over to Sweden last time, but had shown progressive form before that. Mr Fantastic and Stratusnine are others capable of making their presence felt.
AMILOC improved plenty from his debut when maintaining his unbeaten record at Kempton last month, impressing with his finishing effort, so he is taken to continue his progress and land the hat-trick. The main danger could be Praetorian, who can get back on track having run well at this C&D in July, while Stratusnine is one to note as he goes up in trip.
Although yet to tackle turf, this can to go unbeaten AW winner AMILOC, whose pedigree suggests he'll be suited by testing ground

1st (5) (7/1 +0%) Minstrel Knight |
7/1(+0%) | (5) Minstrel Knight 7/1, Deservedly opened his account at Carlisle in June and improved further of late, relishing the increased emphasis on stamina as he ran out a comfortable winner of 7-runner handicap at Haydock (14f, heavy) 14 days ago, by 5 lengths from Filibustering. Another warranting respect. Improved form to win over 1m6f on heavy last time; not without a chance from 7lb higher. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (16/1 -14%) Filibustering |
16/1(-14%) | (7) Filibustering 16/1, Opened account over this trip at Redcar in May and hasn't done much wrong since, most recently finishing creditable 5 lengths second of 7 to Minstrel Knight in handicap at Haydock (14f, heavy) 14 days ago. Likely to give his best shot again but he's eligible for lesser contests than this. Not disgraced on last two starts at Haydock but needs to raise game to win this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (11/4 -22%) Master Builder |
11/4(-22%) | (1) Master Builder 11/4, Mastercraftsman colt who confirmed promise of his fine third in the Melrose here when running out an emphatic winner of 10-runner handicap at Haydock (14f) 5 weeks ago. 7 lb rise unlikely to prevent him making another bold bid. Best effort when winning at Haydock (form franked) last time; leading claims back on AW. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (11/8 +31%) The Reverend |
11/8(+31%) | (2) The Reverend 11/8, Progressive son of Lope de Vega who proved his opening mark lenient as he ran out an impressive winner on handicap debut at Ascot (12f) 5 weeks ago, first-time cheekpieces seeming to really switch him on. High on shortlist with prospect of more to come upped further in trip. Stepped up on novice form to win at Ascot last time; up 9lb and open to improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (15/2 -15%) Who's Glen |
15/2(-15%) | (3) Who's Glen 15/2, Made the frame on first 5 starts on all weather and relished the increase in trip/heavy ground when running out an emphatic winner of 6-runner Chester handicap (14.4f) 4 weeks ago. This understandably tougher up 12 lb but he's very much unexposed over staying trips. Much-improved effort when winning by a wide margin at Chester on turf debut; up 12lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (16/1 -14%) Forest Gate |
16/1(-14%) | (4) Forest Gate 16/1, Waldgeist gelding who made frame first 3 starts and he found some progress when winning 7-runner novice at Epsom (10.1f, soft) 12 days ago, controlling things from the front and clear final 1f. Up markedly in trip under a penalty for handicap debut and likely there's more to come. Best effort to win at Epsom last time; bit to prove under penalty up a fair way in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (12/1 +64%) Caprelo |
12/1(+64%) | (6) Caprelo 12/1, Took a step forward when making a winning handicap debut at Kempton in April. Improved in defeat since, albeit not ideally suited by test of speed when fourth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (12f) 27 days ago. This a much sterner assignment but increase in trip could unlock further progress. Consistent sort who could be suited by the step up in distance; ground a concern. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
William Haggas has trained three of the last five winners of this race and THE REVEREND arrives with strong claims of adding to that tally. The latter won by three lengths over 1m4f at Ascot on his handicap debut, despite being eased down in the closing stages, and can defy a 9lb hike with the possibility of plenty more to come over this extra distance. Minstrel Knight won easily over today's trip on testing going at Haydock a fortnight ago and is preferred to Master Builder, who scored on faster ground at the same venue, while Who's Glen romped home at Chester last time but will find this a more difficult test.
Hard not to be positive about most here with THE REVEREND narrowly fancied to give William Haggas a third consecutive win in the race. He took his form up a notch when making a winning handicap debut at Ascot 5 weeks ago, impressing with how he travelled/put the race to bed and this further increase in trip promises to suit. Haydock-scorer Master Builder is another firmly on the up and he's a serious threat. Who's Glen, who routed 5 rivals at Chester latest completes the shortlist.
The one who appeals most is THE REVEREND (nap), who improved to win on handicap debut last time and he should stay this trip

1st (5) (11/2 +8%) End Of Story |
11/2(+8%) | (5) End Of Story 11/2, Winner on debut in a Thirsk maiden (5f) in June. Didn't progress immediately but back on track having been gelded when second of 8 in course nursery (6f, soft) last month, but again flopped at listed level at the Western Meeting 3 weeks ago. Ground conditions in his favour so should go close. Below best in Listed event last time but this looks much more his level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6/1 0%) King's Call |
6/1(0%) | (1) King's Call 6/1, Debut winner of 6f novice at Ayr in July and not disgraced in face of stiff tasks all 4 starts since, well backed but failing to go through fully with his effort when 3¼ lengths eighth of 14 to Star of Mehmas in listed race at the Western Meeting 3 weeks ago. Now makes nursery debut. Has faced some stiff tasks in Group/Listed events; unproven on soft ahead of nursery debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (11/2 +8%) Fuji Mountain |
11/2(+8%) | (2) Fuji Mountain 11/2, Speedy sort who came good back in calmer waters when making all in Chester novice (soft) in July. Struggled in group/listed company since but made a successful nursery debut back at the scene of his previous win last month, just holding off Teej A. Up 4 lb and should go well again. Best effort when winning on nursery debut at Chester (soft) last time; claims up 4lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (15/2 -25%) Teej A |
15/2(-25%) | (3) Teej A 15/2, Progressive during the spring, winning 2 of first 3 starts, including the Woodcote Stakes at Epsom (6f, soft). Back on track when an unlucky second in a 5f Chester nursery (behind Fuji Mountain) last month but raced too freely up with the pace at Haydock since. Bounce back needed. Closely matched with Fuji Mountain on recent Chester form but not at best last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (12/1 -50%) Al Hussar |
12/1(-50%) | (7) Al Hussar 12/1, Off the mark in 10-runner Doncaster maiden (5f, firm) in May and having disappointed on his next 2 starts, resumed winning ways switched to handicaps (also gelded) in 10-runner event at Catterick (5f, soft) 9 days ago. 6 lb penalty to carry and this is a significant step up in grade. Soft-ground winner on nursery debut last time; 2lb badly in under penalty but a player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (9/1 +25%) Ardennes |
9/1(+25%) | (6) Ardennes 9/1, Good fourth of 16 in a hot nursery at Goodwood (6f) in August before flying too high in listed company at this track later that month. Possibly unsuited by conditions back in calmer waters at Salisbury (6f, good to soft) 8 days ago and that tempers enthusiasm somewhat here. 6f fast-ground winner on second start but below best last twice; more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (17/2 -70%) Lord Roxby |
17/2(-70%) | (8) Lord Roxby 17/2, Much improved from debut when winning 11-runner maiden at Beverley in August and took another step forward when runner-up in Redcar novice (5f, good to firm) the following month, just unable to fend off a promising newcomer under a penalty. Big shout now heading into nurseries. Progressive sort who ran well under a penalty at Redcar; ground a worry on nursery debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (17/2 -70%) Managing Director |
17/2(-70%) | (9) Managing Director 17/2, Showed improved form as he capitalised on the drop in grade to get off the mark under a no-nonsense ride in 8-runner nursery at Thirsk (5f, good to firm) just under 5 weeks ago, still looking a little rough around the edges but always in command. Contrasting conditions to deal with here. Off the mark at Thirsk last time but 7lb higher and encounters different ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (13/2 +28%) Radio Star |
13/2(+28%) | (10) Radio Star 13/2, Left debut well behind when third of 7 in novice at Lingfield (5f, AW) in August and ran to a similar level upped in trip when runner-up in similar event at Chester (6.1f, soft) just under 3 weeks ago. More needed switched to handicaps if she's to open her account. Ground a worry and will have to improve to win off this mark on nursery debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (14/1 +0%) Do It Now |
14/1(+0%) | (4) Do It Now 14/1, Showed improved form to get off the mark at Ripon in May before an excellent fifth in the Super Sprint at Newbury. Well held on nursery debut at Goodwood and, having been sent off favourite, failed to capitalise on the drop in grade at Redcar last month. More needed back in a nursery. Patchy form since Ripon win in spring and plenty to prove on this ground back in nursery. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Having struggled to land a blow in tougher assignments than this in recent starts, KING'S CALL is likely to be seen to better effect in these calmer waters. Having his first run in nursery company, his mark of 94 could prove lenient. Teej A (second) is fancied to reverse the form with the reopposing Fuji Mountain (first) off much better terms after the pair met over 5f at Chester last month, while End Of Story should prefer this test after struggling when behind the selection in Listed company last time.
END OF STORY has twice found listed company all too much at this stage of his career so, having gone close in a course nursery on his penultimate start, Kevin Ryan's charge is fancied to double his tally back in this company at the expense of Fuji Mountain, who made a successful nursery debut at Chester last month and should go close again from 4 lb higher. The unexposed Lord Roxby and handicap debutant King's Call round off the shortlist.
An open event can go to END OF STORY, who wasn't at his best in a Listed event last time but he'll be suited by the return to this grade

1st (15) (25/1 0%) Vince L'amour |
25/1(0%) | (15) Vince L'amour 25/1, Two wins in the mud in April. Creditable third over C&D last month. Two lesser runs have followed but no shock were he to bounce back to form with ground conditions to suit. Two wins in the spring; good 3rd over C&D last month; not so good twice since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (13) (9/2 +36%) Trilby |
9/2(+36%) | (13) Trilby 9/2, Three 6f wins this year, including on heavy. Showed he's still very much at the top of his game when second of 12 at Haydock (6f, heavy) 13 days ago, finishing first in his group. Travels well enough to think he can be fully effective at 5f. Big player. Progressive this year and likely there's more in the tank; fast-run 5f could suit him well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (5/1 +50%) Wen Moon |
5/1(+50%) | (12) Wen Moon 5/1, Not at best the last twice but placed 3 times prior to that and he's dropped to 4 lb lower than when landing this race in the mud last year. No surprise were he to bounce back to form with a bang. Won this race last year off 4lb higher; loves it soft and he's had excuses the last twice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (9/1 +18%) Vantheman |
9/1(+18%) | (1) Vantheman 9/1, Second in a big-field event over C&D at the Dante meeting and produced a really good performance when scoring at Pontefract in July. Touch disappointing when only fifth back at Pontefract in August but the fact he's been off 8 weeks since suggests something may have come to light. Progress stalled at Pontefract latest; still low mileage but soft ground would be a query. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (16/1 -14%) Irish Nectar |
16/1(-14%) | (11) Irish Nectar 16/1, Won a C&D nursery on heavy at this meeting last year. Hasn't reached the same heights in 2024 but his mark has come down as a result and he can't be ruled out with the ground in his favour. C&D win on soft at 2yrs; well backed here last time but laboured early; better than that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (18) (20/1 -43%) Copper Knight |
20/1(-43%) | (18) Copper Knight 20/1, Seven-time C&D winner, including this in 2018. Chester win in June shows there's still plenty of life in his legs and he didn't run too badly back there last time. Cheekpieces refitted. A bold show would come as no surprise. Would be a popular winner but others in today's field bring more compelling claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (13/2 -8%) Aberama Gold |
13/2(-8%) | (6) Aberama Gold 13/2, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 9/2, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Haydock (5f, heavy) 13 days ago. Good 3rd at Haydock two weeks ago; loves the mud but may need more of a test at 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (14/1 -56%) Duran |
14/1(-56%) | (9) Duran 14/1, Third win of a good season when seeing off 12 rivals over C&D (soft) 33 days ago. A 4 lb rise demands more again but no surprise were this 3-y-o to find it. 2-2 at York, coming from well back to score tidily over 5f last month; contender up 4lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (22/1 -100%) Moonstone Boy |
22/1(-100%) | (10) Moonstone Boy 22/1, Successful twice at Hamilton in August. Couldn't complete a hat-trick there 11 days ago but he shaped well in third, suggesting his mark is still workable. In fine form on testing ground at Hamilton of late; missed the break when third latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (25/1 -79%) Good Earth |
25/1(-79%) | (7) Good Earth 25/1, Bagged handicaps at Newmarket/Sandown in August. Good second of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Has won here before. Two wins in August; good second at Hamilton 11 days ago; 2lb well in; draw a query. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (14/1 -17%) Dakota Gold |
14/1(-17%) | (5) Dakota Gold 14/1, Six-time course winner. Latest win at Redcar (6f, soft) in May. 12/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft) 13 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Back to his last winning mark but this admirable veteran may find a few stronger today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (11/2 -10%) Brooklyn Nine Nine |
11/2(-10%) | (8) Brooklyn Nine Nine 11/2, Lightly raced for a 4-y-o sprinter and went close at Ascot (5f, good to soft) back from a 4-month break 5 weeks ago. Effective in the mud. Interesting runner. Yet to win a handicap but has the ability to feature granted a clear run; handles soft. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (16) (28/1 -40%) Abate |
28/1(-40%) | (16) Abate 28/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Down in the weights and retains ability; won't be easy trying to dominate this field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (4) (80/1 -100%) The Fixer |
80/1(-100%) | (4) The Fixer 80/1, Useful in France at 2 but struggled in 3 outings in the first half of this year. First run for yard after leaving Francis-Henri Graffard. Probably best watched. Listed winner in France as a 2yo; quiet this year prior to 25,000euros sale in July. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (17) (40/1 -60%) Monks Dream |
40/1(-60%) | (17) Monks Dream 40/1, AW maiden/novice wins last autumn but has found it tougher in handicaps since. Latest Hamilton fifth was better but he didn't show enough to be too positive here. Slowly running himself into form but this looks too competitive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (14) (50/1 -150%) Mini Magna |
50/1(-150%) | (14) Mini Magna 50/1, Creditable 1½ lengths fourth of 13 to Duran in C&D handicap (soft, 66/1) 33 days ago. Others are preferred for win purposes again, though. Ran well for 4th behind Duran last month; suspicion he'll find others better treated today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (3) (10/1 -67%) Enchanting |
10/1(-67%) | (3) Enchanting 10/1, Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Goodwood (5f, soft, 11/8) 48 days ago, readily making all. Also won a maiden on heavy last autumn. Interesting with this week's rain very much in her favour. Speedy filly who won well, albeit in less-demanding race, at Goodwood in August; contender. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
BROOKLYN NINE NINE ran on strongly when only narrowly touched off over 5f at Ascot last time and he can go one better today. Richard Fahey's runner was sent off favourite for that assignment and despite a 3lb rise, he can gain compensation here. Course winner Good Earth runs off the same mark as his half-length second over 5f at Hamilton last month and he warrants respect, while Enchanting was a good winner over 5f at Goodwood in August and she can offer a bold bid despite an 8lb hike.
TRILBY has been on form pretty much all turf season and can deservedly get his head back in front. Last year's winner Wen Moon, Richard Fahey's Brooklyn Nine Nine and mud-loving 3-y-o filly Enchanting head the dangers. Copper Knight could also go well in 'his' race.
Last year's winner WEN MOON has conditions to suit and has had excuses for recent defeats. He can get the better of Trilby.

1st (3) (4/5 +100%) Fondo Blanco |
4/5(+100%) | (3) Fondo Blanco 4/5, 260,000 gns Ten Sovereigns colt from good family who showed plenty on debut at Newbury (6f, soft, 11/2) 5 weeks ago, learning all the time and coming from further back than anything else in the frame, not knocked about once beaten. Improvement on the way and big shout. Promise over this trip on soft on debut and is the one to beat on that evidence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3/1 -20%) Belgrave |
3/1(-20%) | (2) Belgrave 3/1, Six-figure purchase both times he's gone through the sales ring and he was much improved from his AW debut when chasing home a promising sort in second in 6f Newbury maiden (good to soft, 10/3) 3 weeks ago. Could do better again and leading claims. Stepped up on debut form when switched to turf last time; claims if handling soft ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (6/1 -80%) Apache Green |
6/1(-80%) | (1) Apache Green 6/1, Cost a bit and much improved from debut when winning 6f novice at Pontefract (16/1, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Could progress further and key player here. Improved form to win at Pontefract last time but still to show this ground suits. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (50/1 -52%) The Vital Spark |
50/1(-52%) | (8) The Vital Spark 50/1, Shaped better in 6f Thirsk maiden 8 weeks ago. 5f might be his trip. Stepped up on debut effort last time but more needed on first run away from good ground.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (18/1 +28%) Mwafaq |
18/1(+28%) | (5) Mwafaq 18/1, Mehmas colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 7f Raven's Lady and 7f-1¼m winner Zman Awal, both useful. 11/1, very slowly away and green in 6f Pontefract maiden on debut a fortnight ago. Lost all chance with a slow start on recent debut; looks one to watch this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 +18%) Showstorm |
33/1(+18%) | (7) Showstorm 33/1, No show in 7f contests this summer and handicaps over further next year could be the order of the day. Soundly beate both starts and needs a big step forward to figure on these terms. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (8/1 +27%) Jungle King |
8/1(+27%) | (4) Jungle King 8/1, Foaled February 22. 8,500 gns yearling, £25,000 2-y-o, Bungle Inthejungle colt. Dam once-raced half-sister to useful 1¼m-16.6f winner (stayed 2½m) Solent Gateway out of smart 9f/1¼m winner Aoife Alainn. Bred to stay but worth a look for top yard who continue to have a fine year. Stamina on dam's side but interesting to see how he gets on over this trip on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (150/1 -50%) Oselton |
150/1(-50%) | (6) Oselton 150/1, Modest form in 7f events, looking hard ride at Newcastle latest. Hinted at ability on both turf and AW but looks more a handicap type. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
FONDO BLANCO should have learned plenty from his debut third on soft ground at Newbury last month and that race experience could prove crucial. Roger Varian's colt ticks plenty of the right boxes and a breakthrough victory may be on the cards. Belgrave left behind his opening sixth at Kempton when filling the runner-up spot at Newbury 21 days ago and he's feared most, ahead of penalised Pontefract winner Apache Green.
Not a strong-looking novice for the track and FONDO BLANCO makes most appeal. He shaped really well first time up in a Newbury maiden run in a good time 5 weeks ago and seems sure to improve. Pontefract winner Apache Green and Belgrave are the dangers.
This can go to FONDO BLANCO, who shaped with a good deal of promise on soft ground on debut and he's open to improvement.

1st (2) (11/2 +61%) On The River |
11/2(+61%) | (2) On The River 11/2, Bagged second win of present campaign when narrowly prevailing at Ripon (1m, good) during the summer. Has generally remained in form since but others appear more threatening. Below best on two of last three starts but of interest now the ground is in his favour. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (12/1 -20%) Danzan |
12/1(-20%) | (9) Danzan 12/1, Well treated in theory and arrives on the back of a respectable effort at Ayr. He's had a number of chances to capitalise on his sliding mark, however. Ground/trip fine and running well of late, should give another good account. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (14/1 +0%) Bajan Bandit |
14/1(+0%) | (5) Bajan Bandit 14/1, Thrived for this yard last season, winning handicaps at Haydock/here before filling the frame all 3 starts thereafter. Hasn't recaptured that level this season but there were more positive signs last time and he's been given a chance by the handicapper. Handled soft ground well enough last time but will have to do better again to win this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (17/2 +29%) Mysteryofthesands |
17/2(+29%) | (14) Mysteryofthesands 17/2, Opened his account at Hamilton in July and similar form when third of 13 at Haydock (8.2f, good) last month, clear of rest. Did enough to suggest he probably remained in form when seventh at Ayr (8f, good to firm) just over three weeks ago and not without each-way hope. Back in trip but this could be a good test in the conditions and each-way claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (8/1 +20%) Feel The Need |
8/1(+20%) | (3) Feel The Need 8/1, Resumed winning ways over C&D in May and has backed it up with solid efforts on two of his three starts since, again hitting the frame when fourth at Haydock a fortnight ago. Likely to be on the premises. C&D winner in May who ran well over this trip on heavy at Haydock last time; claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (12/1 +0%) Mostar Dreams |
12/1(+0%) | (10) Mostar Dreams 12/1, Winner at Carlisle in June. Bit below form third of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Hamilton (6f, good) 19 days ago. Mark looks quite accurate and she's likely to prove vulnerable. No problems with the ground and shaping of late as though the return to 7f could suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (17) (25/1 -25%) Giselles Izzy |
25/1(-25%) | (17) Giselles Izzy 25/1, Has enjoyed a productive season and was in good order prior to a rare lesser effort at Hamilton last time. Could bounce back quickly but may find this a bit competitive. Needs to better form of latest Hamilton run if she's to return to winning ways. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (6/1 +0%) Be Frank |
6/1(+0%) | (7) Be Frank 6/1, Shaped well in some strong early-season handicaps on turf for Henry Candy and not discredited for his new yard so far, finishing well when fourth at Newmarket last time. Worth chancing from an appealing mark. Running respectably of late and may appreciate a combination of this trip in this ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (19) (7/1 +36%) Onemorenomore |
7/1(+36%) | (19) Onemorenomore 7/1, Fair handicapper who has been holding form well without indicating that he's ahead of his mark at present. Place claims. Ground/trip in favour and ran well over 6f last time; player back up in distance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (66/1 -65%) Craven |
66/1(-65%) | (8) Craven 66/1, Resumed winning ways here in July but hasn't fired since and is hard to fancy in such a competitive environment. Dual fast-ground winner, including over C&D in summer but well beaten last four outings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (18) (10/1 -25%) No Nay Nicki |
10/1(-25%) | (18) No Nay Nicki 10/1, Down the weights and returned to form when second at Southwell 12 days ago, finishing to good effect. Claims if she can build on that. Back to form on AW last time but record suggests she wouldn't be sure to reproduce that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (12/1 -140%) Another Baar |
12/1(-140%) | (13) Another Baar 12/1, Latest win at Doncaster in August. 3/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to soft) 13 days ago, running on. Back up in trip but he's one for the shortlist in his current mood. In decent form but a combination of the trip in this ground may find him out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (15) (50/1 -213%) Miggy Magic |
50/1(-213%) | (15) Miggy Magic 50/1, Lightly raced sort who returned from an absence of over a year (had left Tom Dascombe) with a mildly encouraging effort at Kempton 51 days ago. Scope for better but mark looks a bit harsh. Shaped as though retaining all ability after lengthy absence last time; ground a worry. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (11) (9/1 +10%) Hectic |
9/1(+10%) | (11) Hectic 9/1, Hasn't won for a while but has been holding his form well (fifth at Carlisle a month ago) and his mark is becoming increasingly appealing, so not without hope. Has had plenty of chances since debut win over two years ago and needs to raise game. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (4) (50/1 -100%) Cori Glory |
50/1(-100%) | (4) Cori Glory 50/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who was better than ever when winning 6-runner handicap at Catterick (7f, soft) on return in May. Hasn't really fired since, though. Soundly beaten on last two starts and, although she handles soft, is best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (16) (33/1 -32%) Misemerald |
33/1(-32%) | (16) Misemerald 33/1, Without a win so far this season and wasn't at his best at Thirsk last time. Break may have done him good but she's likely to find this too competitive. Handles soft but form patchy since last win and may find one or two too strong. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (1) (100/1 -100%) Dream Show |
100/1(-100%) | (1) Dream Show 100/1, Very lightly raced in recent years and didn't appear to retain much ability on debut for this yard 6 days ago. Firmly up against it. Lightly raced in recent times and surprise if he wins this back on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (12) (12/1 +25%) Challet |
12/1(+25%) | (12) Challet 12/1, C&D winner who is on a long-losing run and didn't perform at Thirsk last time. Others make more appeal. Has had plenty of chances since last win and soundly beaten at Thirsk last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
FEEL THE NEED has acquitted himself with credit since his C&D triumph in late May and he could be worth chancing on his return to this venue. Sam Feilden takes the ride and his 5lb claim allows the four-year-old to effectively race off the same mark as for that victory here earlier in the year. Be Frank was an eye-catching fourth when staying on well at Newmarket 20 days ago and a 1lb drop in the ratings should see him in the mix. Justcallmepete and Another Baar are others to note.
BE FRANK is lightly raced for this stable and he looked like he might be about to peak when a staying-on fourth at Newmarket last time, so he gets the nod over Another Baar and Feel The Need, who both arrive in good order. There are a number of others with chances in an open race for the grade.
A few to consider but this can go to ON THE RIVER, who is back on his last winning mark and now has the ground to suit

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.
