Expected to bounce back. Apprentice race winner on comeback (plenty went his way; not so good latest; stiffer task.
6 1st (6) (12/1 +0%) Hurt You Never	12 12/1(+0%)	(6) Hurt You Never 12/1, Latest win at Newcastle in January. 16/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Others more persuasive. Won four over 6f last time (5f Newcastle winner in January); sharp 5f may not be ideal.

7 5th (7) (4/1 +43%) Lotus Rose	4 4/1(+43%)	(7) Lotus Rose 4/1, C&D winner. 6/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Cheekpieces back on. C&D winner in 2021; fair form last twice; chance down in trip with cheekpieces back on.
11 6th (11) (11/2 +31%) Mrs Trump	5.5 11/2(+31%)	(11) Mrs Trump 11/2, Off the mark at the sixteenth attempt in 10-runner handicap (20/1) at Redcar (5f, soft) 17 days ago. Not an obvious type to follow up. Off the mark on turf at Redcar last time (soft); up 4lb; could go well; best on soft.
9 7th (9) (10/1 +38%) Foreseeable Future	10 10/1(+38%)	(9) Foreseeable Future 10/1, C&D winner. Yet to fire this season, eighth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 22/1) 9 days ago, never nearer. Won this off 2lb higher in 2023; well drawn, but not been in best of form this year.

8 9th (8) (9/1 -29%) Latin Five	9 9/1(-29%)	(8) Latin Five 9/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Newcastle in March. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good, 14/1) 19 days ago. Respected. In good form this year, winning on AW in March and second on turf last time; a possible.
2 \|U\| (2) (9/2 +10%) Honour Your Dreams	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(2) Honour Your Dreams 9/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to soft, 10/3) 14 days ago, just failing. Merits consideration. Good second at Hamilton last time; stable going really well at present; a contender.
4 10th (4) (10/1 -25%) Son Of Sampers	10 10/1(-25%)	(4) Son Of Sampers 10/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 6 in handicap (3/1) at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 14 days ago, collared dying strides.

13:50 Naas Stakes 5f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
2 1st (2) (8/13 +23%) Treasure Isle	0.615385 8/13(+23%)	(2) Treasure Isle 8/13, Half-brother to 3 winners, including 1m winner (stays 1¼m) Kaatibb and 6f winner Liberty Tree, while his dam was 1m winner and sister to the useful Dress Rehearsal. Promising second of 6 in novice at the Curragh (5f, heavy, 5/4) on debut 28 days ago, no match for winner. Should progress. Curragh debut second expected to improve for that and major player.
5 2nd (5) (10/3 -11%) Saratoga Special	3.333333 10/3(-11%)	(5) Saratoga Special 10/3, Foaled January 18. €110,000 yearling, Mehmas filly. Sister to useful Irish/US 5f and winner Turn On The Jets, also placed in US Grade 2 6.5f event. Dam 5f winner. Speedily-bred debutante whose yard has already had a trio of juvenile winners.
4 3rd (4) (15/2 -50%) Queens Fury	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(4) Queens Fury 15/2, Foaled January 23. €140,000 yearling, Blue Point filly. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 6.7f Laugh A Minute. Yard's juveniles always respected and market should be informative.
1 4th (1) (33/1 -32%) This Ain't Texas	33 33/1(-32%)	(1) This Ain't Texas 33/1, Foaled April 4. 35,000 gns yearling, Bated Breath colt. Brother to useful 2-y-o 6f winner Take A Deep Breath and half-brother to several winners, including 5f/5.3f winner Entertaining Ben. Dam maiden. Speedily-bred type but yard's newcomers tend to need a run.
3 5th (3) (9/1 -13%) Lovely	9 9/1(-13%)	(3) Lovely 9/1, Foaled April 9. Australia filly. Sister to smart winner up to 9f Ocean Road and half-sister to several winners, including very smart winner up to 1½m Wigmore Hall. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. Yard had a good 2yo winner a week ago so any market support on debut has to be noted.

14:05 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 5) 17f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
2 1st (2) (13/2 -44%) Dusky Days	6.5 13/2(-44%)	(2) Dusky Days 13/2, Winless since debut in a bumper. Good third at Hereford (16f, good) on debut over fences in November but ran poorly at Fontwell on Boxing Day. Might have been amiss that day given his absence since so could well bounce back. Good third on chase debut in November; absent since very poor run on Boxing Day.
3 2nd (3) (4/1 +11%) Barest Of Margins	4 4/1(+11%)	(3) Barest Of Margins 4/1, Made an encouraging start to his chasing career in 2022, finishing runner-up on all 3 completed outings, and ran to a similar level back from 19 months off for new yard when third of 11 in handicap chase at Taunton (16f, soft, 15/2). Might have found next run coming too soon so worth another chance. Good third on last month's stable debut but dropped out tamely a fortnight later.
7 3rd (7) (3/1 +40%) Theonlywayiswessex	3 3/1(+40%)	(7) Theonlywayiswessex 3/1, Dual AW Flat winner for this yard who went close at Wolverhampton 6 weeks ago. Lightly raced over hurdles and posted a good second at Bangor in September. Didn't look a natural tried over fences at Plumpton following month, however. Not bred for fences but ran quite well on slower-than-ideal ground on chasing debut.
1 4th (1) (9/2 +18%) Phoenix Risen	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(1) Phoenix Risen 9/2, Scored twice over hurdles last spring and stepped up on his comeback run when fifth of 16 at Taunton last month. Not bred for chasing but can make his presence felt if taking to it at the first attempt. Looked back in good nick over hurdles last month; makes chasing debut from workable mark.
9 5th (9) (40/1 +20%) Invincible Wish	40 40/1(+20%)	(9) Invincible Wish 40/1, Veteran who went close at Stratford in June 2022 but he hasn't made much of an impact in 3 starts since returning from 18 months off in January. 6 lb out of the weights. Went close over C&D last June but soundly beaten all four subsequent appearances.
6 6th (6) (50/1 -100%) Boom Boom	50 50/1(-100%)	(6) Boom Boom 50/1, Got off the mark in 2m maiden hurdle at Wincanton last April but he has shown little since, including on debut for this yard last time. Made poor start to chase career for Nicky Henderson and was pulled up on stable debut.
5 7th (5) (7/2 -27%) Dunstall Rambler	3.5 7/2(-27%)	(5) Dunstall Rambler 7/2, Just modest form at best over hurdles but would have gone close to making a winning chase bow at Huntingdon (16.5f) but for falling at the last. Backed that up when second at Exeter last month and he's a player. Began chasing career with two good efforts towards end of last season; likely contender.
10 8th (10) (80/1 -60%) Theoule	80 80/1(-60%)	(10) Theoule 80/1, Showed ability on the first of his 2 outings on the Flat for Martyn Meade but has offered nothing over jumps. 10 lb out of handicap. Struggled when 33-1 for chase/handicap debut two years ago and not seen since.
8 \|U\| (8) (28/1 -40%) Barley Breeze	28 28/1(-40%)	(8) Barley Breeze 28/1, Some form in bumpers but has shown very little over obstacles, including for this yard last time. Pulled up over hurdles on recent stable debut; considered only if lively in the betting.
4 \|PU\| (4) (10/1 -122%) Smurfette	10 10/1(-122%)	(4) Smurfette 10/1, Placed in mares' bumper/novice hurdle but disappointed switched to handicaps last 2 starts. Now goes chasing. In good hands and lightly raced but was safely held in both handicap hurdles this spring.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 1st (5) (14/1 -40%) Substitute	14 14/1(-40%)	(5) Substitute 14/1, Foaled April 7. €32,000 Bungle Inthejungle filly. Half-sister to useful 2-y-o 7f-1¼m winner Have Secret and 2-y-o 8.6f winner Roman Secret. Dam 10.7f winner. Newcomer from a good stable. The betting should reveal more. 32,000euro yearling; half-sister to two winners at up to 1m2f; worth a market check.
7 2nd (7) (7/2 +0%) Titian Blue	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(7) Titian Blue 7/2, Foaled January 31. 170,000 gns yearling, Blue Point half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f winners St Ives and Tea Dance. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Makes obvious paper appeal. Blue Point filly; dam a Group-placed 5f juvenile winner; likely sort; worth a market check.
4 3rd (4) (4/5 +0%) Night In Paris	0.8 4/5(+0%)	(4) Night In Paris 4/5, 140,000 gns purchase who showed plenty of speed and battled well to push another promising newcomer close (the pair clear) on her 5f course debut 22 days ago. Should improve and the one to beat. Good second over 5f here on debut; step up to 6f should suit and an obvious contender.
6 4th (6) (6/1 +0%) Thecoffeepoddotco	6 6/1(+0%)	(6) Thecoffeepoddotco 6/1, Foaled April 3. 42,000 gns Sergei Prokofiev filly. Dam 5f-7f winner. Her powerful southern yard has a 5-16 record with 2-y-os here. A likely type on paper. 45,000gns yearling; dam 5.5f/7f winner; has some good entries; could play a part on debut.
2 5th (2) (12/1 -20%) Beaujolais Nouveau	12 12/1(-20%)	(2) Beaujolais Nouveau 12/1, 22/1, 2 lengths third of 5 in maiden at Pontefract (5f, soft) on debut 18 days ago. May do better but the form doesn't look anything special. Third of five in a maiden on debut (5f, soft); up in trip on better ground; interesting.
1 6th (1) (33/1 -65%) Aye Up Lass	33 33/1(-65%)	(1) Aye Up Lass 33/1, Foaled April 17. Sergei Prokofiev filly. Half-sister to 7f-1m winner Time To Rumble. Dam winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 7f winner). Betting should guide to expectations. Newcomer by Sergei Prokofiev; half-sister to a 7f/1m winner; dam 7f-1m2f winner.

14:20 Naas Listed 5f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
2 1st (2) (11/4 -120%) Aesop's Fables	2.75 11/4(-120%)	(2) Aesop's Fables 11/4, Smart colt. Off 5 months before a fading seventh of 10 to Moss Tucker in listed race at this C&D (soft) 20 days ago. Trainer going well so he holds leading claims with that run under his belt. Group 2 winner at two, looks the pick of these based on top-level placed form at three.
1 2nd (1) (14/1 -17%) Twilight Jet	14 14/1(-17%)	(1) Twilight Jet 14/1, Useful gelding. Course winner. Ninth of 14 in handicap at this course (5.9f, soft, 12/1) 20 days ago. Blinkers back on with more required. Smart juvenile in 2021, uneven career since then but managed a 5f Listed win last season.
7 3rd (7) (150/1 -88%) So Majestic	150 150/1(-88%)	(7) So Majestic 150/1, C&D winner who recorded a respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good, 17/2) 8 days ago. Faces no easy ask in this grade, however. C&D handicap winner last June during a good spell of form, this is highly ambitious.
6 4th (6) (17/2 +15%) Ano Syra	8.5 17/2(+15%)	(6) Ano Syra 17/2, Useful mare. Only eleventh of 12 to Dun Na Sead in Mercury Stakes (28/1) at Dundalk (5f) 6 months ago. This course winner is much respected on her seasonal return. Mostly solid form in stakes races last year but needs to find more to win at this level.
3 5th (3) (16/1 -14%) Crispy Cat	16 16/1(-14%)	(3) Crispy Cat 16/1, Fairly useful colt. First run since leaving Jorge Delgado when 6 lengths eighth of 10 to Moss Tucker in listed race (16/1) at this C&D (soft) 20 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward. Smart juvenile for Michael O'Callaghan at two, not as effective during his time in the US.
4 6th (4) (4/1 +33%) The Highway Rat	4 4/1(+33%)	(4) The Highway Rat 4/1, Useful gelding. Creditable 3 lengths fourth of 10 to Moss Tucker in listed race at this C&D (soft, 17/2) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and possibilities. Five of his six wins have come on AW but capable of smart turf form, decent efforts lately.
8 7th (8) (2/1 +56%) Betsen	2 2/1(+56%)	(8) Betsen 2/1, Progressive filly who comes here on the back of an excellent head second of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 16/1) 22 days ago. In the mix. One of the best maidens around judged on Listed second at Navan, again faces a stiff task.
5 8th (5) (8/1 -78%) Dun Na Sead	8 8/1(-78%)	(5) Dun Na Sead 8/1, Smart mare who made a winning start for her new yard (formerly with Kieran Cotter) in 12-runner Mercury Stakes at Dundalk (5f) by 2¼ lengths from Bouttemont. Off 6 months but she can't be dismissed. Speedy front-running mare, easily career-best at Dundalk on her final start last season.

14:35 Stratford Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 26f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (6/1 -50%) Saint Bibiana	6 6/1(-50%)	(3) Saint Bibiana 6/1, Arrives in good nick, shaping as though a stiffer test would suit when third of 14 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f) last month. That form looks decent and she has to be taken seriously off an unchanged mark with this step up in distance looking the right move. 0-5 over hurdles but placed in two 2m4f handicaps last month; tries a new trip today.
9 2nd (9) (4/1 +20%) Bridget Mary	4 4/1(+20%)	(9) Bridget Mary 4/1, £75,000 buy after winning a point. Patchy and just poor form over hurdles so far, her best performance coming with positive tactics employed at Ludlow. Upped further in trip. Fourth on both outings last month (2m5f/3m) and may still have a bigger run in her.
8 3rd (8) (9/2 +31%) Newmill Getaway	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(8) Newmill Getaway 9/2, Fair winner in bumpers with some promising runs over hurdles to her name, although poor at Fontwell latest having been well backed. Goes up markedly in trip now. Only fifth of ten when well supported at Fontwell this month; moves up from 2m3f today.
10 4th (10) (18/1 -29%) Rubys Reward	18 18/1(-29%)	(10) Rubys Reward 18/1, Winner over 23f at Worcester in July and runner-up back there in August/September. She might need this after 6 months off. Won last summer but had gone off the boil by the autumn; back from seven-month break.
2 5th (2) (16/1 -60%) Auditoria	16 16/1(-60%)	(2) Auditoria 16/1, Didn't complete twice after her second over fences at Fontwell (19.5f) in October and bit to prove after another 4 months off on return to hurdling. Failed to complete last two chases; now back hurdling for first time since 2022.
6 6th (6) (11/1 -38%) Little Talks	11 11/1(-38%)	(6) Little Talks 11/1, Stopped the slide by the end at Fakenham a fortnight ago, running on late. This much longer trip will suit (placed over 3m at Doncaster in January under this rider). One to consider. Disappointing mare who didn't achieve a great deal when remote second in a recent maiden.
7 7th (7) (6/1 -50%) Harkangel	6 6/1(-50%)	(7) Harkangel 6/1, Yard in good form and she struck in first-time cheekpieces/tongue strap after 12 weeks off in similar 3m event at Taunton last month. Could feature again up 7 lb. Caused 33-1 surprise when fitted with today's headgear combination last month.
4 8th (4) (22/1 +33%) Camilla's Choice	22 22/1(+33%)	(4) Camilla's Choice 22/1, Surpassed pick of her Irish form when making second start for this yard a winning one at Bangor (23f) in August. However, very disappointing in 3 starts since. Well beaten on all three appearances since last summer's ready win at Bangor.
5 9th (5) (7/1 +30%) Houston Calling	7 7/1(+30%)	(5) Houston Calling 7/1, Claims on her Stratford second in the mud in March but was poor at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago. Upped in trip now. Second off this mark over 2m6f here in March but has disappointed this month; new trip.
1 10th (1) (20/1 -100%) Lily Glitters	20 20/1(-100%)	(1) Lily Glitters 20/1, Four-time winner in staying handicap hurdles and matched that level at the second attempt over fences when runner-up on return in October. Poor since though, pulled up after 4 months off/wind op at Bangor 4 weeks ago (reportedly had a breathing problem). Visor back on upped markedly in trip. Pulled up last month, after a break, but this trip-and-ground combination will suit better.
11 \|PU\| (11) (17/2 +6%) Joyful Kit	8.5 17/2(+6%)	(11) Joyful Kit 17/2, Long-standing maiden who typically gives her running. Likely to give it another good go while proving vulnerable. 0-19 over hurdles but largely consistent since the autumn and has conditions to suit.

After beginning her handicap career with two good efforts over 2m4f, SAINT BIBIANA is open to improvement over this new trip.

14:45 Ripon Maiden (Class 5) 10f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
4 1st (4) (5/6 -4%) Sea Regal	0.833333 5/6(-4%)	(4) Sea Regal 5/6, Promising sort. Third of 9 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f, 13/8) on debut. Off 177 days. Well-bred filly with the scope for big improvement over this distance, so clearly the one to beat. Debut third (beaten fav) came in a race won by the 1,000 Guineas winner; up in trip; solid.
7 2nd (7) (25/1 +0%) Winter Life	25 25/1(+0%)	(7) Winter Life 25/1, Twice-raced filly. Fifth of 7 in minor event at Wetherby (10f, soft, 40/1) 21 days ago. Others make more appeal. Poor form in two runs 322 days apart; handicaps more suitable after this.
6 3rd (6) (14/1 -40%) Wadacre Tivoli	14 14/1(-40%)	(6) Wadacre Tivoli 14/1, Churchill filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 7.5f/1m winner Toinette and 1¼m/11f winner Mutinne, both in France. Interesting newcomer on paper and worth monitoring in the betting. Half-sister to four French winners out of a Listed winner; one of two runners for the yard.
3 4th (3) (11/5 +45%) Marianglas	2.2 11/5(+45%)	(3) Marianglas 11/5, Promising type. Third of 9 in maiden at Newcastle (8f, 7/1) 33 days ago, clear of rest. More to come up in trip and should be involved. Two promising runs on Newcastle AW; upped in trip for turf debut; can do better.
5 5th (5) (8/1 +0%) Twilight Vision	8 8/1(+0%)	(5) Twilight Vision 8/1, Once-raced filly. Fourth of 5 in maiden at Doncaster (11.9f, soft, 7/2) on debut 23 days ago. Should have more to offer with the benefit of experience, so worth considering. Only fourth of five on her Doncaster debut (1m4f, soft) last month; bred to do better.
2 6th (2) (33/1 -371%) Little Heron	33 33/1(-371%)	(2) Little Heron 33/1, Twice-raced filly. 13/2, sixth of 7 in minor event at Wetherby (10f, soft) 21 days ago. Others are more persuasive. Promising debut before a flop on soft ground last month; still has potential.
1 7th (1) (50/1 -213%) Just Hot	50 50/1(-213%)	(1) Just Hot 50/1, €70,000 yearling, Too Darn Hot filly. Half-sister to 1m-10.5f winner Pervade and 1¼m-1½m winner Perfuse, both useful. 70,000euros yearling with a fine middle-distance pedigree; betting to guide on debut.

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (6/5 +60%) Fairy Godmother	1.2 6/5(+60%)	(3) Fairy Godmother 6/5, 2½ lengths second of 12 to impressive Sparkling Sea in maiden at this C&D (soft, 4/7) on debut 20 days ago, clear of rest. Should be better for that and strength in the betting behind her that day was notable. Sure to progress. No match for Sparkling Sea over C&D last month but expected to get closer this time.
5 2nd (5) (5/2 -108%) Sparkling Sea	2.5 5/2(-108%)	(5) Sparkling Sea 5/2, Impressive when winning 12-runner C&D maiden (7/1) on debut 20 days ago by 2½ lengths from Fairy Godmother, drawing clear under hand riding and clocking a good time. Looks smart. Quite impressive C&D debut winner over Fairy Godmother last month; bold bid expected again.
2 3rd (2) (20/1 +9%) California Dreamer	20 20/1(+9%)	(2) California Dreamer 20/1, Head second of 6 to Usdi Atohi in maiden (4/7) at Dundalk (5f) on debut 36 days ago, green and running on. Open to improvement but plenty to find with the principals here. Just denied over 5f at Dundalk by Usdi Atohi; extra furlong should suit.
1 4th (1) (3/1 +0%) Barnavara	3 3/1(+0%)	(1) Barnavara 3/1, Promising type. Won 15-runner maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft, 5/1) on debut 13 days ago, cosily. Good prospect. Curragh debut winner reportedly Albany-bound so expected to go close here.
4 5th (4) (33/1 -136%) Proudly Yours	33 33/1(-136%)	(4) Proudly Yours 33/1, Won 9-runner maiden (3/1) at Dundalk (5f) on debut 37 days ago, always holding on. Should improve. Dundalk winner probably needs to improve but extra furlong should suit.
6 6th (6) (22/1 +0%) Usdi Atohi	22 22/1(+0%)	(6) Usdi Atohi 22/1, Won 6-runner maiden (7/2) at Dundalk (5f) on debut 36 days ago by head from California Dreamer, just holding on. Plenty more needed. Made all when holding California Dreamer by a head over 5f a Dundalk; more needed here.

15:05 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 4) 23f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (4/1 -45%) The Boola Boss	4 4/1(-45%)	(3) The Boola Boss 4/1, Dual chaser winner who returned from a 9-month break to finish a good second at Chepstow (19.5f) 36 days ago. Contender from an unchanged mark. Dual 2m7f chase winner last year and returned from layoff with pleasing run last month.
5 2nd (5) (9/2 +36%) Petty Cash	4.5 9/2(+36%)	(5) Petty Cash 9/2, A hurdler on the up in spring 2022 but fell both starts over fences during 2022/23 campaign. Showed he retains ability on second outing back from a long absence when third in Hereford handicap hurdle last month but comes with risks attached back chasing. Didn't run badly over hurdles last month but fell in both previous chases; too risky.
6 3rd (6) (9/1 -13%) Lelant	9 9/1(-13%)	(6) Lelant 9/1, Fair form over hurdles and should be better for last month's first experience of chasing at Ffos Las. The tongue tie worn on that occasion is retained. On a workable mark but made low-key chasing debut last month; others appeal more.
4 4th (4) (9/4 +25%) Deerstalker	2.25 9/4(+25%)	(4) Deerstalker 9/4, Stuck in the mud on handicap hurdle debut but more likely it faced with a sounder surface (also tongue tied) when narrowly denied in an 18.5f course handicap last month. Switches to fences now (would have won a point at start of career but for a late fall). Unexposed 6yo; went close over hurdles here last month; upped in trip for chasing debut.
1 \|PU\| (1) (5/1 -43%) School Days Over	5 5/1(-43%)	(1) School Days Over 5/1, Perfect start over fences when seeing off 6 rivals at Hereford (21f, good )in November. Below par next 2 starts but took a step back in the right direction with cheekpieces added (retained) when fourth of 9 at Ludlow (3m) 25 days ago. Won on chase debut in November and ran well in first-time cheekpieces last month; player.
2 \|PU\| (2) (5/1 -50%) Golden De Coeur	5 5/1(-50%)	(2) Golden De Coeur 5/1, Fair form over hurdles. Interesting now switching to fences for his handicap debut with the yard among the winners. Dual point winner; made the frame in five maiden hurdles last season; chase/handicap debut.

15:15 Ripon Handicap (Class 3) 6f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (3/1 +25%) Radio Goo Goo	3 3/1(+25%)	(3) Radio Goo Goo 3/1, Below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 2/1) 36 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Yet to win this year but retains a chunk of her ability; quick enough to exploit rail draw.
2 2nd (2) (7/2 -17%) Glorious Angel	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(2) Glorious Angel 7/2, Course winner. Latest win here in April. Only eighth of 11 to Ponntos in Prix de Saint-Georges at Longchamp (5f, good to soft, 12/1) 7 days ago but the sort to bounce back. Won a 5f Class 2 handicap here last month (soft); highly tried twice since; contender.
5 3rd (5) (7/2 +30%) Origintrail	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(5) Origintrail 7/2, C&D winner. Creditable second of 5 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 7/2) 25 days ago. Eleven runs since her last win in 2022, however. C&D winner; promising return at Catterick; wouldn't want the ground to dry out too much.
4 4th (4) (10/1 -67%) International Girl	10 10/1(-67%)	(4) International Girl 10/1, Good second of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 8 months but she can't be ruled out for yard among the winners. Second in this race on 2023 return and also runner-up twice after; should give her running.
7 5th (7) (10/1 +0%) Mersea	10 10/1(+0%)	(7) Mersea 10/1, Latest win at Southwell in April. 9/2, only fourth of 5 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, soft) 18 days ago so needs to get back on track. Two good runs last month but her form has dipped since; vulnerable at this level.
6 6th (6) (25/1 -257%) Game Breaker	25 25/1(-257%)	(6) Game Breaker 25/1, Lightly-raced sort who posted a career best when winning 9-runner nursery at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 9 months ago on her final run for Ralph Beckett. Needs to hit the ground running for her new handler. Last seen making a winning nursery debut (6f, soft) 296 days ago; sold 18,000gns since.
1 7th (1) (10/3 +17%) The Big Board	3.333333 10/3(+17%)	(1) The Big Board 10/3, 14/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (6f, good) 9 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Holds good claims off an easing mark. On a handy mark and returns to her own sex and an easier 6f than last time; contender.

15:20 Naas Listed 7f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
2 (2) (7/4 +0%) Yosemite Valley	1.75 7/4(+0%)	(2) Yosemite Valley 7/4, Smart colt. Career best when winning 6-runner Gladness Stakes at the Curragh (7f, heavy, 3/1) 28 days ago by 2¾ lengths from Jumbly, responding well. Sure to go well. Better than ever this year; best form on more testing ground but major player.
6 (6) (66/1 -164%) Zenga	66 66/1(-164%)	(6) Zenga 66/1, Fairly useful mare. 33/1, first run since leaving Roger Varian when 17¼ lengths last of 6 to Goldana in listed race at Leopardstown (8f, heavy) 39 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Has looked exposed at this level in the past and seemingly loads to find to feature here.
1 1st (1) (13/8 +60%) Mutasarref	1.625 13/8(+60%)	(1) Mutasarref 13/8, Useful gelding. C&D winner. Six wins from 16 Flat runs. Respectable 4 lengths third of 6 to Yosemite Valley in Gladness Stakes (7/1) at the Curragh (7f, heavy) 28 days ago. Recent Curragh third to Yosemite Valley a solid run but more needed to reverse form.
4 2nd (4) (4/1 +60%) Special Wan	4 4/1(+60%)	(4) Special Wan 4/1, Won on 6.5f Leopardstown debut last July. 7/1, 3¾ lengths third of 14 to Aussie Girl in listed race at the Curragh (6f, soft) only other start. Off 7 months. Likely capable of better. Lightly raced filly likely still has more to offer and should stay 7f.
5 3rd (5) (11/8 +31%) Tarawa	1.375 11/8(+31%)	(5) Tarawa 11/8, Useful filly. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable ½-length third of 12 to Coppice in listed race (13/2) at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) on final 3-y-o start. Has good chance on form. Solid level of form last year makes her a leading player on seasonal return.
3 4th (3) (11/1 -38%) Quar Shamar	11 11/1(-38%)	(3) Quar Shamar 11/1, AW maiden winner. Seemed to show very useful form when sixth in last year's Irish 2000 Guineas but well below that level in his 2 subsequent 3-y-o starts. First-time cheekpieces are reached for on his return to the track. Ultimately disappointing 3yo campaign; gelded and first-time cheekpieces on return.
7 5th (7) (33/1 -32%) Genesis	33 33/1(-32%)	(7) Genesis 33/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Dundalk in March. 6/1, good second of 5 in minor event at Dundalk (6f) 65 days ago, rallying. Makes turf debut. This demands significant improvement. Progressive AW form but faces altogether different class of opposition here.

Form	Odds	Runs
4 1st (4) (2/7 +53%) Minella Rescue	0.285714 2/7(+53%)	(4) Minella Rescue 2/7, Dual bumper winner who has made an encouraging start over hurdles, posting a very good third of 7 in novice at Cheltenham (20.2f, good) 32 days ago. Big player with this longer trip also a likely plus. Ran on well for third in strong 2m4f Cheltenham novice last month; good chance here.
3 2nd (3) (11/4 -99%) Huelgoat	2.75 11/4(-99%)	(3) Huelgoat 11/4, Notched his fifth success over fences at Wincanton (2½m) in November. Little to shout about in 3 subsequent starts, though, including when returning from a 13-week break at Plumpton last month. Leading form claims if back on song now reverted to hurdles. Useful chaser (five wins); flopped badly last month; dangerous if back on song.
2 3rd (2) (100/1 -300%) High Joker	100 100/1(-300%)	(2) High Joker 100/1, 17/2, ninth of 11 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (16f, good) on his belated debut 23 days ago. Goes up in trip with cheekpieces added and this Mountain High gelding needs to take a big step forward. Well beaten in uncompetitive 2m maiden on recent debut; up in trip with headgear on here.
1 4th (1) (28/1 -12%) Carnet De Stage	28 28/1(-12%)	(1) Carnet De Stage 28/1, Poor ex-Irish hurdler/chaser who came in only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Tramore (22.8f, heavy) 139 days ago on his final run for Eugene O'Sullivan. Needs to hit the ground running for his new handler. Had 1-45 strike-rate under all codes when trained in Ireland; best watched on stable debut.
5 \|PU\| (5) (100/1 +0%) Kadarra	100 100/1(+0%)	(5) Kadarra 100/1, 150/1, fell heavily first in novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good) on debut 23 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Fell at first flight when 150-1 for last month's debut at Chepstow.

4 2nd (4) (6/1 +14%) Blueflagflyinghigh	6 6/1(+14%)	(4) Blueflagflyinghigh 6/1, C&D winner. Off 7 months. Might need this. C&D winner last June; conditions suit but might need the run on return from a break.
1 3rd (1) (10/3 +39%) Westernesse	3.333333 10/3(+39%)	(1) Westernesse 10/3, Won at Pontefract a year ago. Fourth of 6 in handicap (2/1) at Beverley (8.4f, good to soft) 24 days ago, unable to sustain effort. One to note down in class. 1m winner off this mark in 2023; in the frame 3 starts this term; these conditions suit.
8 4th (8) (40/1 -186%) Just Hiss	40 40/1(-186%)	(8) Just Hiss 40/1, Course winner. Off 7 months. Record suggests he might need this. Veteran; has won six times at up to 1m2f; usually improves for his reappearance run.
2 5th (2) (7/1 +22%) El Pro	7 7/1(+22%)	(2) El Pro 7/1, Fair maiden. Fourth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (12f, 18/1) on UK flat debut 74 days ago. Makes handicap debut and wouldn't dismiss. Ex-German; creditable effort over 1m4f on AW on British Flat debut; 1m2f may suit better.
9 6th (9) (13/2 +0%) Flight Of Angels	6.5 13/2(+0%)	(9) Flight Of Angels 13/2, Won at Wetherby last June. Off 6 months, seventh of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to soft, 11/2) 14 days ago, too free. Down another 2 lb and could show a lot more here. One to consider. 1m2f winner in 2023; some fair form after; disappointing on reappearance; bit to prove.
3 7th (3) (12/1 -71%) Cavalluccio	12 12/1(-71%)	(3) Cavalluccio 12/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in January. 7/2, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Four AW wins (1m/1m2f); good second on fast turf a year ago; new headgear; could go well.

6 9th (6) (22/1 -83%) Parish Councillor	22 22/1(-83%)	(6) Parish Councillor 22/1, Won at Newcastle in February 2023. 5/1, last of 8 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 40 days ago. Makes turf debut. Others more persuasive. Lightly raced 4yo; won AW novice last May (1m); seems to stay 1m2f; first run on turf.

7 (7) (66/1 -32%) Majestic Beauty	66 66/1(-32%)	(7) Majestic Beauty 66/1, Fairly useful filly. 15/2, first run since leaving Alice Haynes when bit below form 5½ lengths fourth of 13 to Cherry Blossom in listed race at Cork (5.5f, good) on reappearance 9 days ago. Uphill task. Probably a pacemaking role here for stablemate Bucanero Fuerte.
1 1st (1) (2/1 -251%) Bucanero Fuerte	2 2/1(-251%)	(1) Bucanero Fuerte 2/1, Won the Group 2 Railway and Group 1 Phoenix over 6f at the Curragh last season. Ended the year on a low note when 12½ lengths third of 4 to Henry Longfellow in National Stakes over 7f there but he's a potential cut above back sprinting on return. Group 1-winning 2yo should take all the beating if he has trained on.
3 2nd (3) (5/4 +62%) Givemethebeatboys	1.25 5/4(+62%)	(3) Givemethebeatboys 5/4, Useful colt. 1 win from 1 run this year. Career best when winning 13-runner listed race at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 13/8) 22 days ago by head from Betsen. Should give another good account. Beat two of these rivals at Navan last month; looks the main threat to Bucanero Fuerte.
6 3rd (6) (8/1 +27%) My Mate Alfie	8 8/1(+27%)	(6) My Mate Alfie 8/1, Useful gelding. 8/1, good 1¼ lengths third of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Career-best last month when third to Givemethebeatboys at Navan; 3lb worse off now though.
5 4th (5) (15/2 +53%) Military	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(5) Military 15/2, Lightly-raced winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable 3½ lengths fourth of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race (11/2) at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) 22 days ago, nearest finish. Blinkers added here but not sure if he has the speed for this assignment.
4 5th (4) (14/1 +13%) Jakajaro	14 14/1(+13%)	(4) Jakajaro 14/1, Useful gelding. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Latest win at Dundalk in March. Very good 3½ lengths fourth of 10 to Jasour in Pavilion Stakes (28/1) at Ascot (6f, good) 18 days ago. Group 3 Ascot fourth a career-best; still progressing but two smart rivals to overcome.
2 6th (2) (25/1 +24%) Alabama	25 25/1(+24%)	(2) Alabama 25/1, Useful colt. Bit below form 5 lengths seventh of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race (14/1) at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) on reappearance 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Never sighted behind Givemthebeatboys on last month's Navan return and plenty to find.

Form	Odds	Runs
6 1st (6) (11/4 +77%) Fancy Stuff	2.75 11/4(+77%)	(6) Fancy Stuff 11/4, Bumper winner who failed to progress over jumps for Dan Skelton. Good start for new yard when third over fences at Ludlow (20f) in December but hasn't gone on from that, albeit left poorly placed back hurdling at Ludlow last time. Lurks on a dangerous mark. Placed on stable debut in December but subsequent form has been underwhelming.
9 2nd (9) (22/1 +67%) The Gambler	22 22/1(+67%)	(9) The Gambler 22/1, Irish point winner last April. Also made a successful start under Rules in a Market Rasen bumper but has struggled since, including switched to chasing on her last 2 starts. Best watched. Struggled in first two handicap chases and is 8lb wrong here.
1 3rd (1) (6/1 -80%) Goodtimecrew	6 6/1(-80%)	(1) Goodtimecrew 6/1, Fair bumper winner who ran to a similar level when finding only one too good first 2 starts in maiden hurdles in November. After a lesser effort, back on track when fourth of 16 at Chepstow (19.4f) last month and she's respected as she makes handicap/chase debut. Quite promising in novice hurdles last season; switched to fences for handicap debut.
3 4th (3) (14/1 -87%) Admiral's Sunset	14 14/1(-87%)	(3) Admiral's Sunset 14/1, Sprung a surprise when landing this race last year and runner-up here (17f) next time. However, below form on her last 3 starts of the campaign (over hurdles on her final outing), so she needs to bounce back after 7 months off. Out of form when last seen in the autumn but won this race when fresh a year ago.
2 5th (2) (5/1 -25%) Feuille De Lune	5 5/1(-25%)	(2) Feuille De Lune 5/1, Hunter chase winner at Cheltenham on her Rules debut back in 2022 (when trained by Kelly Morgan). Below form at Hereford (25.2f) when last seen in October, but she's not discounted as she drops in trip/grade on her return (has had a wind op). Yet to make a significant impact in handicap chases; had wind op during break.
7 \|F\| (7) (25/1 +0%) La Breille	25 25/1(+0%)	(7) La Breille 25/1, Winner of a juvenile hurdle at Fakenham in October 2022 but her form has gone the wrong way since, including when pulled up on her chase debut at Fontwell a month ago. Looks to be up against it. Struggled to get competitive on last month's chasing debut; difficult to enthuse over.
8 \|U\| (8) (14/1 -56%) Sevenofus	14 14/1(-56%)	(8) Sevenofus 14/1, Point winner who was placed in a series of handicap hurdles at around 20f in 2022. Has matched that form sent chasing on her last 3 starts, leaving behind a lesser effort when third at Taunton (21.7f) last time. More needed to open her Rules account. Placed in two of her three chases; 3lb wrong today but still enters calculations.
4 \|PU\| (4) (4/1 -100%) Iorens	4 4/1(-100%)	(4) Iorens 4/1, Failed to build on a promising start over hurdles, but bettered previous chase form by some way when runner-up at Huntingdon (16.5f) in March. Took another step forward when fourth at Hereford 12 days ago, so she's a leading contender with cheekpieces added. 0-10 under rules but dropped another 2lb since recent Hereford fourth; cheekpieces added.
5 \|PU\| (5) (11/2 +27%) Malina Ocarina	5.5 11/2(+27%)	(5) Malina Ocarina 11/2, Landed a gamble over hurdles at Southwell (20.4f) a year ago but mixed bag since, though she did run one of her better races when fourth back at the same C&D 12 days ago. Watch for market clues ahead of her chase debut. Ran well over hurdles recently but has left if late in the day to launch chasing career.

16:15 Newmarket Handicap (Class 3) 14f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
4 (4) (9/2 +10%) Adjuvant	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(4) Adjuvant 9/2, Looked progressive in first half of last season but ended Flat campaign with a couple of below-par efforts and failed to meet expectations sent hurdling this winter. Made little impression on his comeback here 2 weeks ago so others are preferred. Won this race last year; 2023 Flat campaign petered out and below form on reappearance.
8 (8) (10/1 +9%) Zimmerman	10 10/1(+9%)	(8) Zimmerman 10/1, Resumed winning ways at Haydock (16.2f, heavy) in August and made the frame at Chester/York in September. Looked rusty at Ripon on return 3 weeks ago and any rain would enhance his claims. Reliable; relatively exposed and might be ideally suited by softer than good.
7 1st (7) (4/1 +71%) Hope You Can Run	4 4/1(+71%)	(7) Hope You Can Run 4/1, Held form well in the first half of last season, deservedly getting his head back in front at Catterick in July. Not at best both starts this term but worth another go at this trip and jockey booking catches the eye. Ended last season in July but on a high note; well beaten over 1m4f both starts this term.
6 2nd (6) (9/4 +36%) Too Friendly	2.25 9/4(+36%)	(6) Too Friendly 9/4, Won 3 times over hurdles for current yard last summer and added to his tally back on the level in 2m Kempton handicap in March. Gambled on for the Chester Cup 9 days ago but isn't a thorough stayer and didn't get home. Will find this much more suitable. Hood replaces cheekpieces. Not discredited when tenth in Chester Cup nine days ago; hood replaces cheekpieces.
1 3rd (1) (5/2 +50%) Berkshire Rocco	2.5 5/2(+50%)	(1) Berkshire Rocco 5/2, Plenty of solid efforts last season, notably fifth of 22 in the Ebor at York. Looked rusty after 8 months off over C&D 2 weeks ago and better expected now down in class. May have needed his recent reappearance here but he does not look the percentage call.
3 4th (3) (22/1 +21%) Island Brave	22 22/1(+21%)	(3) Island Brave 22/1, Veteran who scored in determined fashion at Haydock in 2022. Well beaten on sole outing last season and similar story back from further 18 months off when twelfth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 43 days ago. Can only be watched. Normally reliable, fully effective on AW, but no show when 40-1 in AW race six weeks ago.
9 5th (9) (9/1 -29%) Tradesman	9 9/1(-29%)	(9) Tradesman 9/1, Form took off on the AW second half of last year, winning 4 times, and further progress when runner-up at Southwell both starts this season. Has to prove he's as effective on turf but he's bred to be. Not proven on turf but he is a major player on the more recent AW efforts.
2 6th (2) (4/1 +38%) Scottish Anthem	4 4/1(+38%)	(2) Scottish Anthem 4/1, Useful gelding for Andre Fabre and similar form for this stable in 4 runs at Meydan. Not taken lightly down in class. Made late headway over 1m4f/1m6f at Meydan, before a lesser show with a visor last time.

16:25 Ripon Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
2 1st (2) (11/1 -57%) Raffles Angel	11 11/1(-57%)	(2) Raffles Angel 11/1, Showed more like her debut form when fifth of 12 in maiden (28/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 24 days ago, despite pulling hard. Could have more to offer as she makes her turf/handicap debut. Likely improver now handicapping on turf; more appealing than many.
4 2nd (4) (13/2 +19%) Louella	6.5 13/2(+19%)	(4) Louella 13/2, Could run to only a similar level as on her reappearance when sixth of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft, 13/2) 17 days ago. However, no surprise to see her fare better back down in grade. Not matched 2yo form so far this year but this represents a drop in class; not ruled out.
12 3rd (12) (33/1 -136%) Dollarindex	33 33/1(-136%)	(12) Dollarindex 33/1, Has made the frame twice this year, but ran poorly when last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 14/1) 38 days ago. Needs to find more as she makes her turf debut. Has shown promise on AW; below par latest but the switch to turf could spark extra.
13 4th (13) (25/1 -79%) Calafrio	25 25/1(-79%)	(13) Calafrio 25/1, Not seen to best effect on her last 2 starts, uncomfortable with the pace when ninth of 12 in nursery at Southwell (6.1f, 20/1) when last seen in December. Has been eased further in the weights ahead of her return. Consistent rather than progressive at 2; starts 3yo campaign off a reduced mark.
3 5th (3) (13/2 +35%) Sergeant Mayer	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(3) Sergeant Mayer 13/2, Ended last season in decent heart, but after 7 months off he ran no sort of race when sixth of 8 in handicap at Catterick (5f, heavy, 7/1) 46 days ago. Bounce back called for having another try at this longer trip. Runner-up three times as a 2yo (all 5f); ignore reappearance (bad ground); 6f the query.
8 6th (8) (9/1 -13%) Chat Up Line	9 9/1(-13%)	(8) Chat Up Line 9/1, After 5 months off, shaped as if needing the run when fifth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (heavy, 33/1) 22 days ago. However, ended last year out of form so others more persuasive at present. 5lb lower than for last summer's win (6f, soft); exposed now though and perhaps vulnerable.
1 7th (1) (12/1 +0%) Dc Flyer	12 12/1(+0%)	(1) Dc Flyer 12/1, Made a successful nursery debut at Hamilton last year. After 6 months off, did too much too soon when last of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, heavy, 10/1) 27 days ago. Needs to get back on track with blinkers applied. Carries risk but possible the fitting of blinkers will rekindle his enthusiasm.
11 8th (11) (10/1 -43%) Big Blue Boy	10 10/1(-43%)	(11) Big Blue Boy 10/1, Failed to build on promise of previous outing when fifth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 7/2) 24 days ago. However, it still remains early days for him at 6f/back on turf, so he's one to consider. Good third at Chelmsford last month; below that level one week later but retains potential.
6 9th (6) (16/1 -60%) Duely Spiced	16 16/1(-60%)	(6) Duely Spiced 16/1, Fared no better in first-time visor when last of 4 in maiden (50/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 57 days ago. Headgear discarded as she makes first run for yard after leaving Gay Kelleway. Has work to do on handicap debut. Didn't progress for G Kelleway; sold 2,000gns in March; may do better now handicapping.
10 10th (10) (14/1 +0%) Uwaittillplaytime	14 14/1(+0%)	(10) Uwaittillplaytime 14/1, Showed bit more than previously when seventh of 10 in minor event at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 25/1) when last seen in August. Has something to find as he goes handicapping after 8 months off. Minor form in three quick runs last August; pedigree offers hope of much better this year.
5 11th (5) (7/2 +50%) Coin Power	3.5 7/2(+50%)	(5) Coin Power 7/2, After 10 months off (gelded) and in first-time tongue strap, shaped much better than result sent handicapping when fifth of 8 at Pontefract (6f, heavy, 6/1) 27 days ago, doing too much too soon. One to note. No progress on last month's h'cap debut (6f, soft); still has time to do better.
9 12th (9) (7/1 -75%) Forever Eighteen	7 7/1(-75%)	(9) Forever Eighteen 7/1, Placed on first 3 starts in handicaps, before respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (7/2) at Bath (5.7f, heavy) 13 days ago. Major player with visor on 1st time. Not kicked on from his AW second in September; visor now added; interesting contender.
7 13th (7) (25/1 -79%) Groove Inn	25 25/1(-79%)	(7) Groove Inn 25/1, Ran below the level of her previous outing when eighth of 11 in minor event (125/1) at Newcastle (6f) in December. Improvement required as she switches to turf for her handicap bow. Down the field in three AW runs (6f) in late 2023; improvement needed but it's possible.
14 \|PU\| (14) (66/1 -100%) Dandycan	66 66/1(-100%)	(14) Dandycan 66/1, Hasn't offered much in 3 starts so far, in first-time hood when tenth of 11 in minor event at Southwell (7.1f, 200/1) 40 days ago. Needs to leave his previous efforts well behind sent handicapping. Poor form in three novice runs (5f-1m); this more suitable but lots to prove.

16:30 Naas Handicap 8f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
8 (8) (12/1 -20%) Raknah	12 12/1(-20%)	(8) Raknah 12/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in March. Creditable seventh of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 21 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Has done most of her racing on AW, two wins before Southwell reverse, stable is flying.
11 (11) (20/1 -67%) Uncle Albert	20 20/1(-67%)	(11) Uncle Albert 20/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Cork in March. Below form ninth of 21 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, heavy, 11/2) 28 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Cork winner in March, failed to run to market expectations at the Curragh four weeks ago.
4 1st (4) (7/1 +30%) Chicago Critic	7 7/1(+30%)	(4) Chicago Critic 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. 16/1, 13¼ lengths sixth of 8 to Battle Cry in Leopardstown 2000 Guineas Trial at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 42 days ago. Yard in good form. Makes handicap debut. Considered. Won a C&D maiden last October on soft-to-heavy, handicap debut after ambitious Group 3 run.
1 2nd (1) (7/2 +30%) Sharinay	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(1) Sharinay 7/2, Off 7 months/gelded and much improved in a first-time hood when landing 18-runner maiden at Cork (8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Much respected on his handicap debut. Won well in testing conditions at Cork but better going should not be a problem.
2 3rd (2) (3/1 +0%) Air Commander	3 3/1(+0%)	(2) Air Commander 3/1, Winner at Dundalk in April. Went keenly but still posted a solid sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 20 days ago. Remains with potential so very much one to consider. Failed to run to expectation in a C&D handicap last time, probably capable of better.
7 4th (7) (8/1 +33%) Starliner	8 8/1(+33%)	(7) Starliner 8/1, 12/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 20 days ago. Yard having good spell. Solid each-way chance. Unplaced along with the shorter-priced Air Commander over C&D on seasonal debut.
5 5th (5) (7/2 +30%) Soldier's Empire	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(5) Soldier's Empire 7/2, Thrice-raced winner. Won 13-runner maiden (11/10) at Dundalk (8f), driven out. Off 6 months. Makes handicap debut. Should progress. Still looked a bit raw when winning at Dundalk, should make a useful colt this season.
12 6th (12) (14/1 -17%) Neo Smart	14 14/1(-17%)	(12) Neo Smart 14/1, Winner at Dundalk in November. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, soft, 8/1) 13 days ago. Enters calculations. Dundalk maiden winner, third at the Curragh 13 days ago but this looks more competitive.
6 7th (6) (22/1 -83%) Profit Refused	22 22/1(-83%)	(6) Profit Refused 22/1, Thrice-raced winner. 20/1, sixth of 11 in minor event at the Curragh (7f, good). Off 9 months. Makes handicap debut with more needed. Ran in good company as a juvenile and could be well enough handicapped, merits respect.
9 8th (9) (14/1 -75%) Barnso	14 14/1(-75%)	(9) Barnso 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. 4/1, good second of 13 in minor event at Dundalk (8f), suited by increase in trip. Off 151 days. Makes handicap debut. Ought to be in the shake-up. Lacks a recent outing but well worth considering on his best juvenile from at Dundalk.
10 9th (10) (28/1 -40%) Going Remote	28 28/1(-40%)	(10) Going Remote 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (soft) 20 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Open to improvement but in-form yard appears to have a stronger candidate in Raknah.
3 10th (3) (25/1 -79%) Bid For Chester	25 25/1(-79%)	(3) Bid For Chester 25/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 9¼ lengths tenth of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 18/1) 22 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Something to find on form. Seems best on soft and heavy, and is not guaranteed to stay 1m as well as some of these.

Form	Odds	Runs
2 1st (2) (7/2 +30%) Little Watson	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(2) Little Watson 7/2, £8,000 3-y-o, Elusive Pimpernel gelding. Dam (h104), lightly raced over hurdles, 1¼m winner on Flat, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Cool Baranca. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. Out of a fairly useful 1m2f Flat winner and represents a good stable; shortlisted.
6 2nd (6) (4/1 +11%) Chattamento	4 4/1(+11%)	(6) Chattamento 4/1, Stepped up on her debut and shaped better than the result when fourth at Fakenham (made effort out wide) last time. Could take another step forward. Close fourth of seven at Fakenham last month but probably needs to improve again.
4 3rd (4) (22/1 -144%) Hola Hermosa	22 22/1(-144%)	(4) Hola Hermosa 22/1, From a good family but showed next to nothing at Huntingdon couple of months ago. Needs to have benefited greatly for that experience. Flopped when joint-favourite for debut but evidently though capable of much better.
1 4th (1) (7/2 +0%) Little Big Kev	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(1) Little Big Kev 7/2, Runner-up on his only start in points and made an encouraging start under Rules when third at Huntingdon a couple of months ago. That's the best piece of form on offer and he can put his experience to good use in a first-time tongue tie. Placed on Irish point debut a year ago and in Huntingdon bumper in March; major player.
3 5th (3) (18/1 -50%) Belle Montrose	18 18/1(-50%)	(3) Belle Montrose 18/1, £28,000 buy after finishing runner-up on her sole start in Irish points (Apr 2). Hasn't shown enough under Rules to make him of serious interest here, though. Second on Irish point debut but has shown only minor promise under rules.
7 6th (7) (12/1 +25%) Flighttothestars	12 12/1(+25%)	(7) Flighttothestars 12/1, Showed something on debut but failed to back it up at Newbury 5 months ago. Returns with something to prove. Not disgraced over C&D on debut but absent since struggling at Newbury in December.
8 7th (8) (17/2 -6%) Kiss Me Moon	8.5 17/2(-6%)	(8) Kiss Me Moon 17/2, Ran to only a poor level in a valuable, big-field Newbury on debut but may make more of an impact in this less-competitive environment. Safely held in valuable race at Newbury on debut but in much calmer waters here.
5 8th (5) (80/1 -220%) Lynda's Pet	80 80/1(-220%)	(5) Lynda's Pet 80/1, Notnowcato mare. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Pauls Hill and fairly useful hurdler Starsky. Unplaced sole start in Irish points (Mar 2023). Sixth of eight on Irish point debut in March 2023; makes rules debut after 441-day layoff.
9 \|PU\| (9) (16/5 -16%) Thewaitingisover	3.2 16/5(-16%)	(9) Thewaitingisover 16/5, Australia filly. Dam (h150) 2m-2½m hurdle winner (stayed 3m), also smart 12.5f/13f winner who stayed 17f on Flat. One to note on debut. First foal from very useful Flat and smart hurdle winner Limini; yard does well in bumpers.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 (5) (14/1 +13%) Arthur's Realm	14 14/1(+13%)	(5) Arthur's Realm 14/1, Ended a near 2-year losing run at Beverley last month and not disgraced up in class in 1m handicap on the other course at the Guineas Meeting. This is just as tough back up in trip. Busy and reliable type; perhaps best on soft or good to soft and now seen more at about 1m.
8 1st (8) (10/1 +38%) Mythical Guest	10 10/1(+38%)	(8) Mythical Guest 10/1, Much improved after 7 months off/gelding operation when opening account in well-run Yarmouth handicap over this trip on return. Not so good at Windsor next time and more needed now. Off the mark in good style at Yarmouth; well held off this 9lb higher mark at Windsor.
1 2nd (1) (7/2 +22%) Daysofourlives	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(1) Daysofourlives 7/2, Three-time winner who showed improved form and did well under the circumstances when third in hot 1m handicap here on return at the Craven Meeting, faring best of the quintet who raced up the stand rail. Might be a bit quirky, but he's also been largely progressive and good shout back up in trip. Close on return; progressive overall and return to 1m2f can help; up 1lb and one to note.
4 3rd (4) (8/1 -78%) Gloucestershire	8 8/1(-78%)	(4) Gloucestershire 8/1, Dual AW winner. Good efforts in handicaps over this trip on the other course on final starts for the Meades' last summer and not on a bad mark if ready to roll for new yard. Close second when last seen last July at Newmarket (1m2f) on final outing for the Meades.
2 4th (2) (9/1 +64%) Gaassee	9 9/1(+64%)	(2) Gaassee 9/1, Easy to back and ran poorly on first outing since leaving William Haggas after 7 months off at Ripon 3 weeks ago. Back in trip and on a good mark. Again goes without usual tongue tie. Set the pace (first time for ages) on stable/seasonal debut before weakening out of it.
9 5th (9) (10/1 -122%) Lough Leane	10 10/1(-122%)	(9) Lough Leane 10/1, Been thriving on the AW, completing 5-timer in 1m Southwell handicap 7 weeks ago under this rider. This is tougher back on turf/back up in trip but he could have more to offer. Started handicapping over middle distances but 5-5 over about 1m this February/March on AW.
6 6th (6) (15/2 +32%) Baryshnikov	7.5 15/2(+32%)	(6) Baryshnikov 15/2, Ended long-losing run at Redcar earlier this month. Left poorly placed at Chester last week and better than that. Ran well on only other previous visit here. Won at Redcar; ran respectably at Chester one week later; well treated on form last summer.
3 7th (3) (13/8 +28%) Mahboob	1.625 13/8(+28%)	(3) Mahboob 13/8, From a good family and 2-2 in Lingfield AW events over this trip 4 months apart (green but well on top finish on return). Very much a smart prospect given connections and pedigree and got to go well on turf/handicap debut. Showed plenty of inexperience and promise in two 1m2f novice wins on Lingfield AW.

Form	Odds	Runs
4 1st (4) (8/1 -14%) Makalu	8 8/1(-14%)	(4) Makalu 8/1, Scored at Southwell in March but a below-form fifth of 9 in handicap there (8.1f) 20 days ago. Needs to bounce back. AW win in March after an absence (1m); less good latest; others are more appealing.
7 2nd (7) (6/4 +67%) Clotherholme	1.5 6/4(+67%)	(7) Clotherholme 6/4, It's now 19 runs since his last win in 2022 but he shaped well when fifth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good) 13 days ago, nearest finish having been short of room from 2f out. Weighted to go close. Engaged Hamilton 7.50 Friday. On the premises over about 1m at Beverley and Hamilton (Friday) on last two starts.
1 3rd (1) (11/2 -22%) Tees George	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(1) Tees George 11/2, Arrives below form, fourth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. 7f AW winner last year; three solid runs this season but stamina for 1m not proven.
9 4th (9) (22/1 -120%) Ribkana	22 22/1(-120%)	(9) Ribkana 22/1, Off 8 months before coming in only eleventh of 12 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, soft, 22/1) 18 days ago. Needs more if she's to shed her maiden tag. 0-15 but 2nd over C&D on three occasions in 2023; likely to bounce back from quiet return.
8 5th (8) (9/2 +0%) Kodebreaker	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(8) Kodebreaker 9/2, Twenty eight runs since his last success but he comes here on the back of a good second of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 12/1) 6 days ago. Not taken lightly. Not easy to win with but reliable at the right level and comes here in form; e-w shout.
10 6th (10) (150/1 -200%) Missmimi	150 150/1(-200%)	(10) Missmimi 150/1, Had wind op before only tenth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good) 13 days ago. Others appeal more. Unplaced in six starts from 5f to 8.5f, recording a peak RPR of 33; hard to recommend.
5 7th (5) (40/1 -186%) Mintnthat	40 40/1(-186%)	(5) Mintnthat 40/1, Latest win at Newcastle in January but he arrives below form, only eighth of 9 in handicap there (8f) 23 days ago. Others are preferred. Four wins for I Jardine, including two (1m, AW) in January; quiet for new stable though.
3 8th (3) (7/1 -56%) Calcutta Dream	7 7/1(-56%)	(3) Calcutta Dream 7/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. 5/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good) 13 days ago. Can give another good account. 0-12 on turf but a five-time AW winner and he ran creditably at Beverley last time.
2 9th (2) (25/1 -56%) Run Simba	25 25/1(-56%)	(2) Run Simba 25/1, Yet to fire for her current yard, eighth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good) 13 days ago. Others appeal more. Exposed maiden; tumbled down the weights but yet to shine for current stable.
6 10th (6) (12/1 -140%) Barossa	12 12/1(-140%)	(6) Barossa 12/1, Still to get her head in front but she posted a good second of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Newcastle (8f) 23 days ago. Needs considering off the same mark. 14-race maiden but runner-up on AW twice last month; best turf form on good or slower.

17:00 Naas Handicap 8f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
6 (6) (11/1 +73%) Something Nice	11 11/1(+73%)	(6) Something Nice 11/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap at this course (5.9f, soft, 40/1) 20 days ago, slowly away. Significantly back up in trip. Others preferred. In rear in sprint handicaps at the Curragh and this venue lately, has been placed over C&D.
10 1st (10) (9/1 +55%) Plume Noire	9 9/1(+55%)	(10) Plume Noire 9/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap at Navan (8f, soft, 6/1). Off 7 months. Liable to need the run. Useful at 7f, never placed at 1m or beyond, lacks a recent outing, others preferred.
7 2nd (7) (7/1 -27%) Desert Haven	7 7/1(-27%)	(7) Desert Haven 7/1, 14/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 39 days ago, always holding on. Definite player. Beat a well fancied rival over 7f at Leopardstown on seasonal debut, now 7lb higher.
8 3rd (8) (20/1 +0%) Derry Lad	20 20/1(+0%)	(8) Derry Lad 20/1, 8/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Cork (10.2f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Down in trip. Has work to do. Stays 1m4f, may find this trip inadequate, has a bit to find with Mr King on Cork running.
5 4th (5) (4/1 +50%) Mr King	4 4/1(+50%)	(5) Mr King 4/1, Creditable second of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Cork (8f, good) 9 days ago, clear of rest. Merits consideration. Won a 1m2f handicap at Roscommon last season for this rider, good recent run over 1m.
9 5th (9) (16/1 +52%) Spanish Tenor	16 16/1(+52%)	(9) Spanish Tenor 16/1, Course winner. 14/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Cork (8f, good) 9 days ago. Back to a potentially lenient mark. Exposed eight-time winner, well held by Mr King on running at Cork nine days ago.
1 6th (1) (11/1 -175%) Wigmore Street	11 11/1(-175%)	(1) Wigmore Street 11/1, Impressive debut winner at Kempton in December 2022. 6/4, first run since leaving Simon & Ed Crisford when fifth of 6 in minor event at Dundalk (8f) 72 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not one to wriite off. Readily won only start in Britain, looked an awkward ride at Dundalk, plenty of weight.
3 7th (3) (18/1 -177%) Exquisite Acclaim	18 18/1(-177%)	(3) Exquisite Acclaim 18/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f, 11/4) 58 days ago, always holding on. Should be on the premises again. Fine Dundalk record contrasts with a 0-16 turf statistic which is a significant negative.
13 8th (13) (13/2 +74%) Eastern Wind	6.5 13/2(+74%)	(13) Eastern Wind 13/2, 22/1, below form eighth of 21 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, heavy) 28 days ago. Potentially well treated if she strips fitter for that. Infrequent winner, placed in two of her four races at this venue, others make more appeal.
2 9th (2) (11/1 +8%) Flame Of Eire	11 11/1(+8%)	(2) Flame Of Eire 11/1, 14/1 and visored for 1st time, 5¾ lengths ninth of 12 to Many Tears in listed race at Dundalk (8f). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving A. Slattery. Others more persuasive. All four wins in handicaps in 2022, tough tasks last year, sights lowered by new trainer.
11 \|S\| (11) (17/2 +23%) Sea Chariot	8.5 17/2(+23%)	(11) Sea Chariot 17/2, Latest win at Dundalk in November. Respectable fifth of 12 in minor event at Dundalk (8f, 15/2), nearest finish. Off 149 days. Not dismissed. Two wins from five starts at Dundalk; 0-3 on turf; fair fifth in this race last year.
4 10th (4) (5/1 -67%) Genuine Article	5 5/1(-67%)	(4) Genuine Article 5/1, Lightly-raced winner. 3/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, good second of 8 in handicap at the Curragh (10f, soft). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving D. K. Weld. Definite player. A maiden winner over this trip for Dermot Weld, Colin Keane takes the ride for his father.
12 11th (12) (16/1 -33%) Sectarius	16 16/1(-33%)	(12) Sectarius 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 7/2, eighth of 11 in maiden at Listowel (8f, soft). Off 8 months. Makes handicap debut. Needs to do more. Twice place, beaten by a 72-rated horse at Gowran so his 75 mark may be too taxing.

17:15 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 7f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
13 (13) (10/1 -43%) King Of Fury	10 10/1(-43%)	(13) King Of Fury 10/1, After 6 months off, ran well on form despite looking a hard ride when second of 5 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f) 15 days ago, racing freely/hanging left. Needs to build on his latest effort with hood now reached for. May settle better and show progress with hood fitted; not ruled out.
9 (9) (12/1 -9%) Feel The Need	12 12/1(-9%)	(9) Feel The Need 12/1, Fifteen runs since his sole victory but some encouragement for his new trainer this year, second at Newcastle (7.1f) 16 days ago when idling close home (Outrun The Storm ½ length behind in third). Needs everything to drop right. Record is only 1-17; needs the cards to drop right (usually held up in rear).
8 (8) (14/1 -56%) Mubhijah	14 14/1(-56%)	(8) Mubhijah 14/1, Making her first start since leaving Roger Varian, ran out a convincing winner of a Carlisle maiden (6.9f) in September. Respectable fourth on her handicap debut next time, but ran poorly at Doncaster (6f) on her return. Could fare better back up in trip. Ran poorly over 6f on soft ground most recently but may rebound in this scenario.
12 1st (12) (12/1 -85%) Noodle Mission	12 12/1(-85%)	(12) Noodle Mission 12/1, Built on the promise of his seasonal/stable debut when returning to winning ways at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in March. Again ran well at Chelmsford City (7f) next time, but task is now to transfer that form to turf. Leading claims off this mark, provided his AW form is transferred back to turf.
4 2nd (4) (6/1 -9%) Hat Toss	6 6/1(-9%)	(4) Hat Toss 6/1, Winner for David Loughnane at Sandown last summer and, with a hood refitted, left behind his stable debut effort when fourth of 8 at Bath (8f) 13 days ago, despite meeting trouble in running. Enters calculations. Interesting back down in trip, with Hollie Doyle taking over from 3lb claimer.
14 3rd (14) (16/1 +36%) Royal Musketeer	16 16/1(+36%)	(14) Royal Musketeer 16/1, C&D winner who bounced back to form when scoring at Southwell (7.1f) in December. However, he's gone backwards from that effort this year, eleventh of 12 back at Southwell on his latest outing. Others preferred. Won this race in 2022 and runner-up last year; good chance if back in similar form.
5 4th (5) (7/4 +47%) Double Time	1.75 7/4(+47%)	(5) Double Time 7/4, Stepped up on his recent run when second of 13 at Yarmouth (8f) 19 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently and racing on the other side of the track to the other principals. Could be ready to get back to winning ways. Has form figures of 132 under Oisin Murphy, close second at Yarmouth latest.
11 5th (11) (8/1 -14%) Outrun The Storm	8 8/1(-14%)	(11) Outrun The Storm 8/1, Not at his best towards the end of last season, but proved determined back from 6 months off when landing a Newcastle handicap (7.1f) in April. Creditable third at the same C&D 16 days ago and he can give another good account. Has form figures of 212 on the July course here; solid credentials on Rowley debut.
2 6th (2) (9/2 +55%) Great Max	4.5 9/2(+55%)	(2) Great Max 9/2, Without a win since debut but there were better signs than he had been showing on his final 2 starts last year. Raced too freely at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in January, so he's no discounted back down in trip on first run since leaving Michael Bell. 0-18 since debut win but has become well treated on best form; debut for new yard.
7 7th (7) (80/1 -220%) Royal Parade	80 80/1(-220%)	(7) Royal Parade 80/1, Doubled his tally at Goodwood (6f) last summer but below that level for the remainder of the campaign. Finished well held on first run since leaving Michael Appleby at Kempton in January, so he has work to do after a break. Both wins at 6f; failed to beat a rival on last appearance; opposed.
3 8th (3) (40/1 -82%) Powerdress	40 40/1(-82%)	(3) Powerdress 40/1, Made a winning debut here in April 2022 and ran well after 12-month absence when third in conditions race over C&D on her next outing. However, well held all 3 starts since and has been off 10 months ahead of her first start since leaving Richard Hannon. Lost her form for Richard Hannon; market helpful on debut for new stable.
10 9th (10) (8/1 +27%) Flying Secret	8 8/1(+27%)	(10) Flying Secret 8/1, Recorded back-to-back wins in June last year and wasn't discredited after 6 months off when fourth of 12 at Southwell (7.1f) in April, left with a lot to do. Successful second time out last season so he could be in the mix. Interesting off a handy mark back on turf with AW reappearance under his belt.
6 10th (6) (25/1 +24%) Duc De Morny	25 25/1(+24%)	(6) Duc De Morny 25/1, Won his first 2 starts in 2022 when trained in France. Showed more than previously for his current yard when fourth of 9 at Kempton (8f) in March, but failed to repeat that effort at Chelmsford next time. Others more persuasive. First turf start in Britain; good chance on best French form.
1 \|PU\| (1) (14/1 -17%) Dirtyoldtown	14 14/1(-17%)	(1) Dirtyoldtown 14/1, Making his third start for Dylan Cunha, signed off last year by springing a surprise in 17-runner event at this C&D in November. Well held at Doncaster on his return, but he remains on a good mark based on old form. Inconsistent but scored comfortably over C&D (heavy; off 4lb lower) last November.

17:30 Naas Maiden 8f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
5 1st (5) (8/1 +33%) Serialise	8 8/1(+33%)	(5) Serialise 8/1, Once-raced filly. Twelfth of 16 in maiden (66/1) at the Curragh (7f, soft) on debut, merely passing beaten rivals. Off 7 months. Yard in good form. Has had plenty of time to mature since her single run at two, stable in flying form.
7 2nd (7) (4/1 +0%) Siege Of Troy	4 4/1(+0%)	(7) Siege Of Troy 4/1, Siyouni filly. Half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 8.3f Buckaroo, 1½m-1¾m winner Middle Earth, both smart, and useful 1½m-13f winner Kihavah. Makes plenty of appeal on paper and could make a winning start. Dam Roheryn is doing well at stud, may need further in time but has to be taken seriously..
6 3rd (6) (2/1 -45%) Settlement	2 2/1(-45%)	(6) Settlement 2/1, Lightly-raced filly. Bit below form sixth of 11 in maiden (11/4) at Galway (8.3f, heavy), finding test too much. Off 6 months. Strong claims. Unsuited by heavy ground on final start at two, has a sound chance on overall form.
2 4th (2) (3/1 +40%) Golden Ocean	3 3/1(+40%)	(2) Golden Ocean 3/1, €200,000 yearling, Blue Point filly. Half-sister to 12.4f winner King of The Plains. Notable newcomer for stable that can get one ready. Dam Golden Lilac won the French 1,000 Guineas French and French Oaks, likely contender.
9 5th (9) (5/1 +23%) Tanazadia	5 5/1(+23%)	(9) Tanazadia 5/1, Twice-raced filly. 20/1, sixth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (8f). Off 177 days. Stable in good form. Should improve this year. Two runs at Dundalk, stablemate Siege Of Troy is probably a more likely contender.
8 6th (8) (22/1 +12%) Star Of Atlantis	22 22/1(+12%)	(8) Star Of Atlantis 22/1, €21,000 foal, Starspangledbanner filly. Sister to winner up to 7f Starlight Song and half-sister to 1¼m winner Sea of Marmoon and 7f winner Adelita. Dam won in France and is noteworthy as a half-sister to Dubai World Cup winner Monterosso.
11 7th (11) (150/1 -127%) Time Out	150 150/1(-127%)	(11) Time Out 150/1, Once-raced filly. Eleventh of 12 in maiden (80/1) at this course (10.4f, soft) on debut 20 days ago. Down in trip. Showed inexperience on debut at this venue; plenty to find with fourth-placed Thatwilldoso.
4 8th (4) (200/1 -100%) Melkorka	200 200/1(-100%)	(4) Melkorka 200/1, Once-raced filly. 150/1, twelfth of 16 in maiden at Gowran (8f, heavy) on debut 11 days ago. Big price when down the field on recent debut at Gowran, major improvement needed.
3 9th (3) (66/1 -65%) Imperial Miss	66 66/1(-65%)	(3) Imperial Miss 66/1, Once-raced filly. 28/1, ninth of 11 in maiden at this C&D (good) on debut 8 days ago. Raced keenly and never posed a threat when stable's second-string over C&D eight days ago.
10 10th (10) (18/1 -200%) Thatwilldoso	18 18/1(-200%)	(10) Thatwilldoso 18/1, Once-raced filly. Fourth of 12 in maiden at this course (10.4f, soft, 80/1) on debut 20 days ago, not knocked about. Down in trip. May well do better. Shaped quite well at this venue on debut; shorter trip is not guaranteed to suit as well..
1 11th (1) (80/1 -400%) Empress Alma	80 80/1(-400%)	(1) Empress Alma 80/1, Twice-raced filly. Fifth of 9 in maiden (25/1) at Sligo (5.7f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Should have more to offer. Unplaced in two maidens, some ability but perhaps more of a handicap prospect.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 (5) (3/1 +25%) Al Shabab Storm	3 3/1(+25%)	(5) Al Shabab Storm 3/1, Usually well found in the betting and got off the mark at the third time of asking in 6f Goodwood novice (soft) in October. Well backed again and resumed progress after a rather underwhelming reappearance effort when just failing to catch Garfield Shadow at Chester last week. Up 4 lb. Finished strongly on the outer and nearly collared Garfield Shadow at Chester last time.
9 (9) (13/2 -18%) Jimmy Speaking	6.5 13/2(-18%)	(9) Jimmy Speaking 13/2, Going the right way now, following up his successful return at Chelmsford when landing another 6f handicap at Ascot last week, edging ahead late on. Hung badly right there but still got the job done and cheekpieces go on now. Respected in hat-trick bid. Two from two this season; now upped further in grade but may progress further.
10 (10) (14/1 +30%) Cargin Bhui	14 14/1(+30%)	(10) Cargin Bhui 14/1, 5f Wolverhampton winner on second start and improved again when runner-up under a penalty at Newcastle (decent form). Not seen to best effect in handicaps twice since, finishing with running left behind Garfield Shadow and Al Shabab Storm at Chester last week. Not one to give up on. Looks comfortably held by Garfield Shadow and Al Shabab Storm on Chester form.
2 1st (2) (2/1 +50%) Woodhay Wonder	2 2/1(+50%)	(2) Woodhay Wonder 2/1, Has won 4 times, including 3 at Newmarket, picking up where she left off in 2023 to complete a hat-trick in big fields in C&D handicap on return, taking another step forward from her sales race wins here. Up 5 lb and could be smart, while her course experience will count for plenty. Improving filly whose reappearance win confirms that she is well suited by Newmarket.
8 2nd (8) (7/2 +68%) Completely Random	3.5 7/2(+68%)	(8) Completely Random 7/2, Landed the odds in easy fashion in 6f Wolverhampton novice at Christmas but easy to back and held on return in useful C&D handicap a fortnight ago, not knocked about. This could reveal more. Seemed to need his reappearance effort over C&D two weeks ago; may improve.
3 3rd (3) (9/1 +36%) Jehangeer	9 9/1(+36%)	(3) Jehangeer 9/1, Brother to yard's top sprinter Hello Youmzain and made a bright start last year, winning 6f Ayr maiden and running well in the Rockingham at York when last seen. Loads to like about him physically and definitely the type that could develop into a high-end handicapper. One to consider on return. Raised 9lb for York Listed effort but has possibilities provided the form is repeated.
6 4th (6) (5/1 -25%) Garfield Shadow	5 5/1(-25%)	(6) Garfield Shadow 5/1, Unbeaten in 3 starts, improving in good style when landing 6f Chester handicap on return last week by neck from Al Shabab Storm, just holding on. Up 5 lb and should have even more to offer. Got a dream passage up the inside at Chester on reappearance, taking record to 3-3.
4 5th (4) (5/1 +33%) Warm Spell	5 5/1(+33%)	(4) Warm Spell 5/1, Cost a bit and landed the odds in a good time at Newbury (7f) in July. Struggled in listed race at Doncaster 2 months later but remains with potential. Remains open to further progress; interesting back down in distance/grade.
1 6th (1) (14/1 +58%) Watch My Tracer	14 14/1(+58%)	(1) Watch My Tracer 14/1, Improved again when making a winning reappearance in 7f Lingfield listed race before finding the Greenham too hot (sweated a bit beforehand). This should suit better back sprinting/handicapping. Listed winner on AW this term; faces no easy task off top weight in this warm handicap.
7 7th (7) (11/1 +21%) The Coffee Pod	11 11/1(+21%)	(7) The Coffee Pod 11/1, Won 6f York novice in September. Stepped up on reappearance but not enough to enable him to justify support at Windsor (5f) 5 weeks ago, finishing just third of 7, and this is tougher. Others preferred. Has shown progressive form in 6f races on turf, culminating in York win last September.

Form	Odds	Runs
7 (7) (8/1 -33%) Prince Of Pillo	8 8/1(-33%)	(7) Prince Of Pillo 8/1, Won 3 of his 5 starts at 2, including a listed race. Didn't fire last year but down the weights and there was encouragement to be gleaned from his C&D reappearance. Should build on that. Good 2yo who struggled last season; sharper for reappearance; on a good mark now; tempting.
3 (3) (25/1 -25%) Spoof	25 25/1(-25%)	(3) Spoof 25/1, Won 4 times last season. Shot back up in the weights as a result and hasn't fired yet this term. Had an excuse with the draw last time but he may need slower ground than this nowadays.
6 1st (6) (10/3 +58%) Pepsi Cat	3.333333 10/3(+58%)	(6) Pepsi Cat 10/3, Fairly useful and likeable mare who doubled her tally for the year at Newcastle in March and acquitted herself well in listed company at Bath since. Should give another good account. Progressive sprinter who ran well in Listed race last month; each-way claims at least.
4 2nd (4) (4/1 -14%) Isle Of Lismore	4 4/1(-14%)	(4) Isle Of Lismore 4/1, Winner at on the July course last summer and better than ever when scoring at Ascot last time. Looks to be in the form of his life, so makes plenty of appeal. Comes here in top form and that can't be said about many of his rivals; should run well.
8 3rd (8) (3/1 +33%) Glamorous Breeze	3 3/1(+33%)	(8) Glamorous Breeze 3/1, Better than ever last season, landing a third success of the campaign when scoring at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) in September. Better for return when third at Ascot last time and should be on the premises again. Strong traveller; good 3rd at Ascot last time on ground slower than optimal; contender.
2 4th (2) (14/1 -56%) Lir Speciale	14 14/1(-56%)	(2) Lir Speciale 14/1, Useful sort who looked back in form when a staying-on fourth at Chelmsford 8 months ago. Left Roger Varian since and new yard applies tongue strap down in trip. Four wins for Roger Varian at 6f/7f; sold 50,000gns October; 5f the query on stable debut.
9 5th (9) (9/2 +18%) Harry Brown	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(9) Harry Brown 9/2, Consistent performer who produced a rare poor effort at Goodwood last time but should be back on his game returned to a more realistic grade of handicap. All wins on AW but peak RPR came on fast turf at Goodwood; ground excuse latest.
5 6th (5) (16/1 +52%) Ready Freddie Go	16 16/1(+52%)	(5) Ready Freddie Go 16/1, Wasn't firing on all cylinders towards the end of last year and looked badly in need of the run at Thirsk on return. Likely to need this, too. Can leave his reappearance behind him but it wasn't full of short-term promise.
1 7th (1) (13/2 -95%) Thunder Moor	6.5 13/2(-95%)	(1) Thunder Moor 13/2, Useful operator who has improved to make all on his last two starts in Bahrain. BHA handicapper has reacted but he's no doubt of interest returning to Britain off a 3-month break with cheekpieces refitted. Two Bahrain wins in February (awarded race 2nd occasion); needs more to defy new mark.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 (1) (16/1 -33%) Raimunda	16 16/1(-33%)	(1) Raimunda 16/1, Off the mark at the third attempt at Haydock (1m) last July. Ran below that level in a handicap there in August but retains potential back from a break. Disappointing when last seen but may still have more to offer; has very low mileage.
6 (6) (18/1 +10%) Dreamrocker	18 18/1(+10%)	(6) Dreamrocker 18/1, Won a 7f Salisbury novice last summer but no significant impact in a couple of handicaps since. Still early days but she might need some more respite from the handicapper. Has failed to build on Salisbury success but is bred to do better still.
13 (13) (22/1 -10%) Toxic	22 22/1(-10%)	(13) Toxic 22/1, Won 9-runner maiden (8/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) on debut in March but well below that level there last month. Her opening handicap mark looks tough. Both starts at Wolverhampton; well beaten under a penalty latest.
11 (11) (50/1 -52%) Cariad	50 50/1(-52%)	(11) Cariad 50/1, Won 1m handicap at Chelmsford in November. Never threatened on 1m Nottingham reappearance last month but she might have needed the run. All wins in Class 6 contests on AW; not the percentage call.
9 1st (9) (66/1 -164%) Ziggy's Phoenix	66 66/1(-164%)	(9) Ziggy's Phoenix 66/1, Two 5f wins early last year but well below par in a couple of sprint handicaps this year. Remains to be seen whether a significant step up in trip and cheekpieces improves matters. Something to prove on first attempt beyond sprint distances; headgear enlisted.
5 2nd (5) (11/2 +45%) Victoria Falls	5.5 11/2(+45%)	(5) Victoria Falls 11/2, Won a pair of turf handicaps at the end of last summer. Also a good second over C&D in September and should be sharper for a recent spin on AW. One to consider under Oisin Murphy. Remains on career-high mark but this return to Class 5 is a plus.
10 3rd (10) (9/2 +18%) Heartwarmer	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(10) Heartwarmer 9/2, Promising type. Won 11-runner novice at Newcastle (6f) in December. Ran to a similar level when third on 6f Pontefract return (heavy) in April. Totally unexposed now handicapping over a 2f longer trip. Buick does the steering. Strong promise in two starts over 6f; bred to stay this longer trip; enters calculations.
7 4th (7) (17/2 +6%) Local Music	8.5 17/2(+6%)	(7) Local Music 17/2, Came good in 15-runner Chelmsford handicap last month. Could be called the winner from some way out on that occasion and a 5 lb rise doesn't look too severe if proving as effective on turf (previous attempt came on debut in Ireland). Raced mainly on AW; off the mark in Chelmsford contest most recently.
15 5th (15) (12/1 +40%) Adelabella	12 12/1(+40%)	(15) Adelabella 12/1, Fourth on 1m Chelmsford handicap debut last month and not see to best effect (met trouble) when seventh of 13 over 1m at Yarmouth since. Remains unexposed. Five-race maiden who needs to show improvement.
16 6th (16) (28/1 -56%) Machiavellian Lady	28 28/1(-56%)	(16) Machiavellian Lady 28/1, Built on turf debut third when winning 7f Chelmsford novice last autumn. Well beaten back there on final start but retains potential as an unexposed sort now handicapping on return. Folded tamely when last seen; on a rebound mission; market may prove best guide.
14 7th (14) (12/1 -50%) Royal Velvet	12 12/1(-50%)	(14) Royal Velvet 12/1, Promising sort who had a bit in hand when taking her career record to 2-3 in 7f Newcastle handicap last month. Almost certainly more to come and a 3 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop her now switching to turf. Out of an AW winner for her connections; has shown progress over 7f in that sphere.
3 8th (3) (25/1 +24%) Speriamo	25 25/1(+24%)	(3) Speriamo 25/1, Not disgraced behind a trio of 3yos when fourth of 5 in handicap (20/1) at Southwell (1m) last month but ran poorly in blinkers here since. The headgear is quickly discarded. Successful twice off this sort of mark at the Newmarket tracks; possibilities.
4 9th (4) (10/1 -67%) Astral Spirit	10 10/1(-67%)	(4) Astral Spirit 10/1, Went close on a few occasions last season and deservedly got her head in front on 1m Wetherby reappearance (soft) 3 weeks ago, making all. Showed a good attitude on that occasion and should remain very competitive up 4 lb. Consistent maiden last year; made all at Wetherby on reappearance; may build on that win.
8 10th (8) (10/3 +26%) Sunfall	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(8) Sunfall 10/3, Confirmed debut promise when quickening to lead in the final 1f and comfortably see off 10 rivals in 7f Kempton maiden last month. Surely more to come for top stable now handicapping. Twice-raced filly who should have more to offer; won at Kempton latest; respected.
17 11th (17) (25/1 -108%) Astronomica	25 25/1(-108%)	(17) Astronomica 25/1, Dual winner last season and held her form well towards the end of the campaign. Should give her running if tuned up for this return, but she doesn't appear to have much in hand. Solid record in turf handicaps but ideally needs rain; both wins on soft ground.
2 12th (2) (15/2 +53%) Bint Al Daar	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(2) Bint Al Daar 15/2, Resumed winning ways at Wolverhampton in November but wasn't in same form at Lingfield subsequently. First outing for 165 days. Gained her sole turf success on the July course here last term; makes reappearance.
12 13th (12) (22/1 -100%) Beveragino	22 22/1(-100%)	(12) Beveragino 22/1, Fair performer who got off the mark with cheekpieces added (retained) at Wolverhampton (7f) last month. Steps up to 1m for the first time now handicapping. Opened her account at Wolverhampton last month; this is a harder task.
