Missmimi |
(12) (66/1 -65%)66/1(-65%) | (12) Missmimi 66/1, Offered very little in handful of starts as a 3-y-o but did at least hint at ability second start back without being seen to best effect when sixth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good to firm) 9 days ago. Now she needs to build on that effort. Engaged 1.45 here Monday. Has yet to make the frame and well beaten over 7f here yesterday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (3) (17/2 +47%) Copper And Five |
17/2(+47%) | (3) Copper And Five 17/2, C&D winner who has yet to fire in 2 starts this season, possibly still in need of the run when thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, soft) 24 days ago. Lines up here operating 7 lb below last winning mark but needs to show more before becoming of interest. Well handicapped but poor in latest outings; best form has come on good or faster ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (7/1 +7%) Dougies Dream |
7/1(+7%) | (7) Dougies Dream 7/1, Dual winner last season (at 1m) who quickly dispelled a lesser run when third of 11 in handicap at Beverley (8.5f) 3 weeks ago, keeping on close home. Respected with a repeat. 4lb below last winning mark, has won on good to soft, but well held on soft/heavy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (2/1 +60%) Young Fire |
2/1(+60%) | (1) Young Fire 2/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 9/2, twelfth of 15 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 14 days ago, not clear run approaching final 1f and no chance after. Well worth bearing in mind from further reduced mark. C&D winner; ground conditions are likely to be ideal; interesting down in grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (22/1 -193%) Admiral Nelson |
22/1(-193%) | (2) Admiral Nelson 22/1, Successful on yard debut at Newcastle (7f) in December and best effort since when runner-up in 7-runner handicap back at that venue in March. Finished respectable fourth at Wetherby 4 weeks ago and he's not discounted from 1 lb lower mark. Dual turf winner in Ireland and fourth back on grass last time, but form not worked out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (10/1 +17%) Tasever |
10/1(+17%) | (9) Tasever 10/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs but stepped up markedly on his reappearance run when tenth of 15 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm, 20/1) 14 days ago, not clear run final 1f and never dangerous. Not dismissed out of hand returned to class 6 company. Little in two outings since returning last month and now 0-16; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (11/1 +0%) Juryman |
11/1(+0%) | (8) Juryman 11/1, Unreliable on the whole for William Jarvis but reappearance/yard debut effort wasn't devoid of encouragement when seventh of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to soft, 14/1) 32 days ago, not knocked about. Task is to build on that here. 5lb below sole winning mark; stamina to prove but caught the eye on stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (20/1 -43%) Martin's Brig |
20/1(-43%) | (11) Martin's Brig 20/1, Latest win at Newcastle in March. Eighth of 12 in handicap back at that venue (10.2f) 42 days ago. Back down in trip returned to turf and no big surprise to see a better showing. Acts on any ground, but is just 1-22 on turf and others hold more compelling claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (10/1 -11%) Global Spirit |
10/1(-11%) | (6) Global Spirit 10/1, Successful from a 4 lb higher mark at Pontefract (1m) in September. Mixed bag so far this season, not entirely disgraced when seventh of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Not dismissed out of hand. 4lb below his last winning mark, but unplaced all six starts far this year; more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (66/1 -371%) Jumeira Vision |
66/1(-371%) | (10) Jumeira Vision 66/1, Winner at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in November. 20/1, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 14 days ago. Back down in trip. 3lb below sole winning mark, but has been well held in both outings on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (7/2 +13%) Kristal Klear |
7/2(+13%) | (5) Kristal Klear 7/2, Maiden who has made an encouraging start for new yard, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good) 11 days ago, better placed than most. Not taken lightly. 0-11 but placed both starts for this yard; ran well on soft ground as a 2yo; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (4) (25/1 -108%) Tipp Town |
25/1(-108%) | (4) Tipp Town 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden who seemed unsuited by the drop to sprinting/back from 10 months off when fourth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft, 6/1) 26 days ago. Remains one of the least exposed and he could yet do better back up in trip. Lightly raced 4yo (0-5) who probably needed Doncaster return; 1m should be within range. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
KRISTAL KLEAR has been unlucky not to get her head in front since joining the Stella Barclay yard and a 1lb drop could prove lenient on the back of a placed effort at Hamilton recently. She can break the maiden at the main expense of recent Beverley third Dougies Dream, as well as Young Fire, who is a player based on the pick of his form. Others to note include Admiral Nelson, Tasever and Tipp Town.
C&D winner YOUNG FIRE lurks on a very tempting mark down in class and could be the way to go. Kristal Klear and Dougies Dream are feared.
There is plenty in favour of YOUNG FIRE (nap). Ground conditions should be ideal and he drops to this level for the first time.

1st (5) (5/2 -11%) Jacquelina |
5/2(-11%) | (5) Jacquelina 5/2, 3 wins from 11 runs this year. 11/4, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 7 days ago. Carries penalty. Worth a chance to follow up. Recorded back-to-back wins at Windsor and over C&D this month; 5lb penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (11/2 +8%) Alpine Girl |
11/2(+8%) | (4) Alpine Girl 11/2, 22/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, soft) 31 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Won at Salisbury (5f) last July off 3lb higher; of interest back on good ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (7/2 +50%) Mokaatil |
7/2(+50%) | (6) Mokaatil 7/2, 9/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good) 15 days ago. Blinkers refitted and he's back on his last winning mark. On the decline but won on AW in February and still capable at this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (6/1 +0%) Batchelor Boy |
6/1(+0%) | (1) Batchelor Boy 6/1, 4-time course winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in April. Sixth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at this course (6f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Not completely dismissed. Won four times here and he scored at Yarmouth last month; only sixth here last time.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (5/1 -25%) Secret Handsheikh |
5/1(-25%) | (3) Secret Handsheikh 5/1, C&D winner. 12/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back but return to this course should help. Third in a higher grade over C&D last month and he should run well.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (12/1 -118%) Cabeza De Llave |
12/1(-118%) | (7) Cabeza De Llave 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in February. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 15/2) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Not one to write off. Won at Chelmsford in February and had excuses when beaten on his last two starts.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (28/1 -40%) Boom The Groom |
28/1(-40%) | (2) Boom The Groom 28/1, Course winner. 18/1, last of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 60 days ago. Others more persuasive. Course winner; wonderful servant to the yard but on the decline now.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (40/1 -60%) Haveagobeau |
40/1(-60%) | (8) Haveagobeau 40/1, 28/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 15 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm). Off 7 months. Hard to recommend. Still a maiden and has it to do following seven months off. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Turned out again quickly after a determined success here last week, JACQUELINA looks well capable of landing the hat-trick under a 5lb penalty. Phil McEntee's charge gets the vote ahead of Secret Handsheikh and Batchelor Boy, who must hold every chance if bouncing back to the form which saw him win comfortably at Yarmouth on his penultimate outing. Alpine Girl and Mokaatil are capable of being in the shake-up too.
JACQUELINA arrives on the back of an improved effort when scoring here a week ago and she's capable of following up in a race where most of the others have something to prove. Batchelor Boy is another one to consider and Cabeza de Llave should strip fitter for his latest outing, so a return to form would be no surprise.
A tight little heat but ALPINE GIRL will appreciate the return to good ground and is 3lb lower than her Salisbury win last summer.

1st (1) (10/1 -67%) Blinky |
10/1(-67%) | (1) Blinky 10/1, Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 6 in minor event (17/2) at Salisbury (5f, heavy) on debut 12 days ago. Will be more street-wise this time. Too free early doors at Salisbury (5f, soft) before dropping away. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (9/2 +10%) Simply Blue |
9/2(+10%) | (5) Simply Blue 9/2, Promising type. 10/1, seventh of 9 in maiden at Chester (6.1f, good) on debut 19 days ago, not clear run. Almost certainly capable of a good deal better and he's on the shortlist. £180,000 yearling; soon on the back foot after starting slowly at Chester (6f, good; 10-1). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (10/11 +60%) Carrados |
10/11(+60%) | (2) Carrados 10/11, Foaled March 30. €52,000 foal, £360,000 2-y-o. Half-brother to 7f/7.2f winner New Hill. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 6.5f Campanelle. Yard no stranger to success first-time-out with 2-y-os and he's one to note. 52,000euros foal but fetched £360,000 at the breeze-ups this April; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (33/1 -65%) Son Of Astar |
33/1(-65%) | (6) Son Of Astar 33/1, Once-raced maiden. 18/1, fifth of 7 in maiden at this C&D (heavy) on debut 31 days ago, missing break. Others preferred. Never dangerous after starting slowly on C&D debut (soft) a month ago when 18-1. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (50/1 -213%) Royal Accord |
50/1(-213%) | (4) Royal Accord 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in minor event at Goodwood (5f, heavy, 20/1) 25 days ago. Probably more one for nurseries in due course. Showed more at Goodwood but was still only fifth of the seven starters. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (20/1 -300%) Gobsmacked |
20/1(-300%) | (3) Gobsmacked 20/1, Once-raced maiden. Third of 5 in maiden at Hamilton (5f, good, 9/4) on debut 11 days ago. May well do better with that experience to draw upon here. Sent off one of the favourites at Hamilton (5f) but was beaten 5.5l in a field of five. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (4/1 -45%) Tolerance |
4/1(-45%) | (7) Tolerance 4/1, £88,000 yearling, £145,000 2-y-o. Half-brother to 5f winner Navajo Dawn and dam was a 2-y-o 5f winner, herself a half-sister to useful 11f/1½m winner Without A Trace. Positive jockey booking and he needs a close look in the betting. £145,000 2yo and lots of speed in his pedigree; interesting with Buick booked. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
An open contest which may go the way of newcomer TOLERANCE, who is bred to be precocious as his dam Patience Alexander won the Marygate. Geroge Boughey's charge is narrowly preferred to Gobsmacked, who shaped with promise on debut at Hamilton when only weakening late into third. Blinky is another open to improvement, while Carrados is one to monitor for market support as he makes his racecourse bow for powerful connections.
Newcomers TOLERANCE and Carrados both make plenty of appeal on paper and it would be no surprise were one of them to prove equal to the task. The latter was the more pricey of the two but Tolerance is bred to make a 2-y-o and he could have the edge on this occasion. Simply Blue is the pick of those with experience.
Simply Blue and Blinky can do better but breeze-up buys CARRADOS and Tolerance could be above average.

1st (6) (6/1 +50%) Alfie Boy |
6/1(+50%) | (6) Alfie Boy 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Off 8 months/gelded, shaped as if better for the run when sixth of 10 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good) 22 days ago, ridden 2f out and no extra last ½f. Should be sharper with that under his belt. Out of the frame in all five starts; down again in grade but still best watched for now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (30/1 -88%) Angel Of The Bay |
30/1(-88%) | (8) Angel Of The Bay 30/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, ninth of 10 in minor event at Catterick (7f, good) 15 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Some ability on AW but well held on turf debut; resurgence needed switched to a handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (11/2 +21%) Without Flaw |
11/2(+21%) | (4) Without Flaw 11/2, Ffos Las nursery winner (on heavy) last summer for Archie Watson and stepped up appreciably on her yard debut effort when second of 8 in handicap at Ripon (6f, heavy) 31 days ago. Underfoot conditions fine and she remains unexposed at this sort of trip. Chased home a subsequent winner last time and handles testing conditions well; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (9/2 +0%) Bestie |
9/2(+0%) | (10) Bestie 9/2, Advertise gelding who returned to form when third over 7f at Catterick on his penultimate start and seemed unsuited by the drop back to sprinting when filling the same spot back there 5 days ago. Return to 7f a plus and conditions will hold no fears. Respected. Third on soft ground at Catterick the last twice; return to 7f should be in his favour. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (28/1 -75%) Chatty |
28/1(-75%) | (1) Chatty 28/1, Offered definite signs of promise under a positive ride on second of 3 starts in maiden/novice events last summer. Off 11 months/gelded and feasible to think he can get back on track now handicapping. Betting may unearth some clues. Best effort in three starts at two came on soft ground; interesting on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (9/2 -29%) Berrygate |
9/2(-29%) | (5) Berrygate 9/2, Gregorian filly who quickly bounced back to her best when second of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 32 days ago. Claims provided she proves as effective on turf. 0-6 on AW but placed five times; claims if she can cope with the conditions on turf debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (12/1 -85%) Body Parts |
12/1(-85%) | (3) Body Parts 12/1, Raced exclusively on AW to date, bouncing back to her best when doubling career tally in 10-runner handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 4 weeks ago. Respected making turf debut. Won two of her last four starts on the AW; player if she handles conditions on turf debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (11/2 +45%) Bits And Bobs |
11/2(+45%) | (2) Bits And Bobs 11/2, Winless since tasting success on debut for Andrew Balding at Leicester last summer but ended time with Jamie Osborne with a creditable third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 6 weeks ago. Changed hands for 5,500 gns earlier this month and not discounted back on turf. Runnng with credit on the AW lately; not dismissed on stable debut back on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (17/2 +15%) Inspiring Speeches |
17/2(+15%) | (7) Inspiring Speeches 17/2, Churchill colt. Eighth of 12 in nursery at Newcastle (6f) in November, headway under pressure over 1f out and plugging on. Return to 7f likely to suit returning from 6 months off. Didn't get home in one go over this trip last year; enough to prove on return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (16/1 -78%) Socialise |
16/1(-78%) | (9) Socialise 16/1, Winner at Newcastle (6f) in April. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap back at that venue (6f, 9/1) 17 days ago, snatched up last ½f and finished with running left. Revised mark certainly not beyond him. 1-14 though he didn't enjoy a clear run over C&D last time; can't be written off entirely. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
As long as she handles the switch to turf, the consistent BERRYGATE looks the one to be with on the back of a strong runner-up effort at Newcastle last month. A taking winner at Southwell on her most recent start, Body Parts looks to be the main danger despite a 6lb rise, along with Bits And Bobs, who is of interest on his first start for new connections.
Plenty in with claims and a chance is taken on BESTIE at the foot of the weights. He looked unsuited by the drop back in trip when third at Catterick 5 days ago and this sort of test promises to suit more with underfoot conditions holding no fears. Socialise and Body Parts head up the dangers, with Berrygate another to consider.
It may be worth siding with BESTIE who has been placed on soft ground at Catterick the last twice. The return to this trip should suit.

1st (5) (5/1 +9%) Isla Bella |
5/1(+9%) | (5) Isla Bella 5/1, Once-raced filly. Sixth of 8 in maiden at this course (5.3f, good, 9/1) on debut 38 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. More required, but should have learned from her debut. Faded inside final furlong and finished sixth of eight here on last month's debut (5.2f). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (15/8 +58%) Double O One |
15/8(+58%) | (2) Double O One 15/8, Once-raced filly. Fifth of 6 in maiden (22/1) at Ascot (5f, good) on debut 18 days ago. Needs to have learned plenty from that initial outing. Low-key debut when fifth of six at Ascot (5f) but this race looks much weaker. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (7/2 -154%) Premium Pass |
7/2(-154%) | (4) Premium Pass 7/2, Foaled April 19. Raven's Pass filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 9f Naval Power and 7f-8.3f winner Border Edge. Makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and worth a chance to make a winning start. Half-sister to UAE Group 2 winner Naval Power; stable does well with this age-group. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (20/1 -100%) Kaleidoscope Eyes |
20/1(-100%) | (3) Kaleidoscope Eyes 20/1, Foaled May 3. 30,000 gns 2-y-o, No Nay Never filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 1m winner Alibaba and Australian 1½m winner Fantasising. Interesting newcomer. Out of a well-connected dam but probably one for a bit further down the line. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (8/1 -33%) Bolly Dolly |
8/1(-33%) | (1) Bolly Dolly 8/1, Foaled April 6. 20,000 gns yearling, Due Diligence filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Bremner and useful winner abroad up to 9f Key Master. Worth a market check. 20,000gns yearling; half-sister to a 1m Italian Listed winner; market may guide. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (50/1 -52%) My Candy Girl |
50/1(-52%) | (8) My Candy Girl 50/1, Foaled January 18. 8,000 gns yearling, Expert Eye filly. Closely related to useful winner up to 12.5f Mukhayyam and half-sister to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 9f Barleysugar. Dam 1m-11f winner. Out of a fair 1m-1m3f winner; may find 6f a bit sharp on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (11/2 +61%) Tiggy Webber |
11/2(+61%) | (9) Tiggy Webber 11/2, Foaled February 21. 1,500 gns foal, £3,000 yearling, Cotai Glory filly. Half-sister to Italian winner up to 1m Fly By Fly. Cheap purchase but makes some appeal on pedigree. Pedigree does not leap off the page but market support will make her of interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (40/1 -186%) Lizzie Bubbles |
40/1(-186%) | (7) Lizzie Bubbles 40/1, Once-raced filly. 25/1 and blinkered, twelfth of 14 in minor event at Bath (5f, good to soft) on debut 39 days ago, not much room. Tongue strap on for 1st time, cheekpieces on for 1st time. In rear throughout when 25-1 for last month's debut at Bath (5f); headgear switched here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Trainer Archie Watson is no stranger to first-time-out winners and he could have a smart one on his hands in the shape of PREMIUM PASS, who is a half-sister to Group 2 winner Naval Power. The daughter of Raven's Pass should know her job on debut and she may have too much for fellow newcomer Bolly Dolly, as well as Isla Bella, who is entitled to improve for the step up in trip.
PREMIUM PASS is well bred and has found a good opening to start out, so she's worth chancing to make a winning debut for a stable that should have her well prepared. Breeze-Up recruit Kaleidoscope Eyes is another one to be interested in and Bolly Dolly could feature if the market speaks in her favour.
The ones with experience have not shown a great deal and by far the most appealing of the newcomers is PREMIUM PASS.

Aegean Sea |
(1) (7/1 -27%)7/1(-27%) | (1) Aegean Sea 7/1, Foaled February 23. Kingman colt. Dam, French 1¼m winner sole start, half-sister to useful 1m winner Pabouche out of very smart winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 1m winner) High Heeled. Lots to like on paper and the market will be instructive. Nice pedigree and the stable won this with an above-average type three years ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (10) (12/1 +70%) Santa Savana |
12/1(+70%) | (10) Santa Savana 12/1, Foaled February 28. Havana Grey filly. Dam, winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner), closely related to smart winner up to 1m Oasis Dancer and half-sister to smart 1m/9f winner Smart Enough. Wears hood. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner. Second foal; dam 7f/1m winner (inc 2yo; RPR 89); hood applied for debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (5/1 +69%) Seaplane |
5/1(+69%) | (8) Seaplane 5/1, Foaled April 16. Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 14.5f Sumo Sam and 2-y-o 1¼m winner Sun God. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 1½m winner Stay Alert. Will probably need more time and distance. Excellent pedigree but for longer distances further down the line. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (11/2 -100%) Jorge Alvares |
11/2(-100%) | (5) Jorge Alvares 11/2, Promising type. Third of 11 in minor event at York (6f, good, 40/1) on debut 12 days ago. Open to improvement and he should have a part to play. £30,000 yearling; third in what was probably a useful York maiden (6f, good). |

4th (7) (28/1 -75%) Rogue Endeavour |
28/1(-75%) | (7) Rogue Endeavour 28/1, Foaled March 22. Dandy Man colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Galeron and 1¼m-1½m winner Goldenfield, both useful. Dam unraced. Interesting to see what the market has to say. Half-brother to six winners including Galeron (Group-placed 6f/7f 2yo; RPR 108). |

6th (9) (11/1 -22%) Nad Alshiba Green |
11/1(-22%) | (9) Nad Alshiba Green 11/1, Once-raced filly. 10/3, sixth of 8 in maiden at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) on debut 15 days ago. Should have more to offer with that run under her belt. Strong in the market when sixth at Windsor and should be all the wiser this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (8/11 +20%) Beccali |
8/11(+20%) | (4) Beccali 8/11, Foaled March 27. €310,000 foal, €580,000 yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to useful 6f winner Platinum Star (by Lope de Vega). Immediate appeal given his pedigree and the powerful connections he represents. 580,000euros yearling; second foal out of a French 1m winner (Listed; RPR 108). |

8th (3) (100/1 -100%) Balzarini |
100/1(-100%) | (3) Balzarini 100/1, Foaled April 29. €60,000 foal, Dark Angel colt. Dam, 2-y-o 6f/7f winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m-2m winner Johann Zoffany, 6f-7f winner Crown Choice and 1¼m winner Hail, latter 2 useful. Entitled to come on for the run. First foal; dam Listed-placed 6f/7f 2yo winner (RPR 95); best watched unless backed. |

9th (2) (150/1 -127%) Backer Bilk |
150/1(-127%) | (2) Backer Bilk 150/1, Foaled April 1. £24,000 yearling, Ulysses gelding. Brother to 1m winner Kirilenko and 7f winner Purefoy. Yard rarely strikes with 2-y-o newcomers. £24,000 yearling; already gelded; likely to be outclassed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
This can go the way of JORGE ALVARES on the back of a highly promising debut at York, where he was behind two smart Royal Ascot-bound colts. Kevin Ryan's charge shaped on that occasion as if he would improve plenty from it, while the costly newcomer Beccali looks best placed to chase him home for leading connections. Aegean Sea is another likely type to consider first time out.
The obvious starting point is BECCALI, a typically well-bred Godolphin newcomer and it will be an ominous sign for his rivals if he's strong in the betting. Jorge Alvares shaped with far greater promise than his SP suggested he might at York recently and he is second choice ahead of another likely-looking newcomer in Aegean Sea.
Some of the newcomers have the potential to be above average and BECCALI holds obvious appeal after making 580,000euros.

5/1(+33%) | (3) Love Talk 5/1, Foaled March 28. €25,000 yearling, Ten Sovereigns filly. Closely related to 5f-6f winner Ibn Arabi, and half-sister to 9f-10.5f winner Shikami and useful winner up to 1m Nellie Leylax. Makes appeal on paper and she's one to note on debut. Stable not noted for winning 2yo newcomers. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (4/1 -14%) Big Bug |
4/1(-14%) | (6) Big Bug 4/1, Thrice-raced filly. 11/1, matched previous best when third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good) 28 days ago, helping force the pace and no extra inside final 1f. Third in her last two starts; sets the standard and shouldn't be far away. |

3rd (2) (7/2 +0%) Lovely Spirit |
7/2(+0%) | (2) Lovely Spirit 7/2, Foaled February 24. 33,000 gns foal, 30,000 gns yearling, Invincible Spirit filly. Dam unraced half-sister to 1m-1¼m winner Hawk Island out of useful 1¼m/11f winner (stayed 1¾m) Crimphill. Yard boast 25% strike rate with their juveniles so far this term and she's one to note. Stable doing well with 2yo newcomers this year so worth considering, especially if backed. |

4th (5) (50/1 -213%) Suzette |
50/1(-213%) | (5) Suzette 50/1, Foaled April 7. 24,000 gns foal, £22,000 yearling, Zoustar filly. Dam, maiden (stayed 1½m), closely related to very smart 5f-7f winner Make A Challenge. Stable has very few 2yos go in first time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (12/1 +0%) Greek Gift |
12/1(+0%) | (7) Greek Gift 12/1, Magna Grecia filly. Very green when midfield on debut in a Beverley maiden (5f) and fared no better when fourteenth of 16 in maiden at Pontefract (6f, good to soft, 16/1) 4 days ago. Likely best watched. Hinted at ability on debut, but ran no sort of race at Pontefract on Friday. |

6th (4) (10/1 +9%) Polar Rebel |
10/1(+9%) | (4) Polar Rebel 10/1, Foaled March 10. €20,000 yearling, Kodi Bear filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 2-y-o 7.4f winner Port Louis and French 2-y-o 5f winner Just Approve. Stable can get one ready first time so well worth monitoring in the market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (16/1 -14%) Mayflower Rosie |
16/1(-14%) | (8) Mayflower Rosie 16/1, Tasleet filly. 12/1, hinted at ability seventh of 13 in maiden at Thirsk (5f, soft) on debut 24 days ago. This should reveal more. Midfield on Thirk debut but form is working out well; could take a step forward. |

8th (9) (13/2 +46%) Rose Of New Jersey |
13/2(+46%) | (9) Rose Of New Jersey 13/2, Foaled January 26. 16,000 gns foal, 15,000 gns yearling, Advertise filly. Half-sister to a winner in Sweden by Norse Dancer. Market should prove a useful guide on debut with yard having struck with their only 2-y-o runner so far this term. Stable 1-1 with 2yo newcomers so far this year; worth a second look. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (8/1 -129%) Tales Of Immortal |
8/1(-129%) | (10) Tales Of Immortal 8/1, Foaled February 9. Expert Eye filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 5f winner (Queen Mary Stakes) Ceiling Kitty. Dam maiden (stayed 1m). Yard yet to strike with their juveniles but she's a likely type on paper. Respected. Stable has very few 2yos go in first time, but she is nicely bred; watch market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (80/1 -100%) Aria's Dream |
80/1(-100%) | (1) Aria's Dream 80/1, Twice-raced filly who again offered little when ninth of 10 in maiden at Doncaster (5f, firm, 40/1) 10 days ago, always behind. Can only be watched. Well held in both starts over 5f this month; needs to take a major step forward. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Two-year-olds from the Richard Fahey stable have been showing up well of late, and LOVELY SPIRIT looks another likely type on debut from a plum draw in stall two. The daughter of Invincible Spirit may want further in time but she is likely to be tuned up for this and gets the vote ahead of fellow newcomer Tales Of Immortal, who is related to a whole host of smart winners. Of those with experience, Big Bug sets the standard on the back of a pair of creditable efforts.
Those with previous form don't set a tall standard by any means and it may pay to side with a newcomer. LOVELY SPIRIT represents a yard boasting a 25% strike rate with their juveniles so far on turf this term and shades the vote without the benefit of market clues. Tales of Immortal is very much of interest on paper and she's another to note along with Love Talk. Big Bug can do best of those with experience.
Big Bug has the best form, but preference is for LOVELY SPIRIT whose stable has been doing well with its 2yo newcomers this year.

17/2(+29%) | (5) Could She Be Magic 17/2, Once-raced filly. Twelfth of 14 in maiden at Bath (5.7f, good, 6/1) on debut 13 days ago. A lot more required. Beaten when hampered on Bath debut but no surprise if she improves plenty. |

16/1(-14%) | (2) Go Steelers Go 16/1, Once-raced filly. 18/1, seventh of 9 in maiden at Doncaster (5f, firm) on debut 10 days ago, very slowly away. Should know more but needs to step up markedly. Ultimately well beaten on 5f debut at Doncaster; too soon to fancy for a maiden. |

100/1(-52%) | (3) Innocent Settler 100/1, Twice-raced filly. 40/1, last of 9 in maiden at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Beaten 19l and 27l in two 5f maidens (tongue tied each time, not today); best watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Runner-up to a subsequent winner on her debut at Catterick when well fancied, TEQUILA ROSE is open to plenty of improvement going up in trip and she is taken to go one better. Related to a couple of smart winners, Qumasha is one to be interested in on debut, while Kimmico is another to consider and can go well if rediscovering the form which saw her run with plenty of promise at Kempton.
TEQUILA ROSE showed plenty when second at Catterick on debut and might not need to improve on that to open her account, acknowledging Charlie Johnston's newcomer Qumasha is an interesting one on paper. Kimmico could feature if she builds on her debut at the second attempt.
Qumasha has lots going for her on paper but TEQUILA ROSE showed plenty on debut and the experience can stand her in good stead.

Autumn Dream |
(7) (12/1 +0%)12/1(+0%) | (7) Autumn Dream 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 8 in maiden at Kempton (8f, 25/1) when last seen 8 months ago. Booking of William Buick an obvious plus now upped in trip for this handicap debut. Cost 150,000gns as a yearling and should do better now handicapping over further. |

Campaign Medal |

Tongue strap enlisted for this handicap debut and improvement on the cards now faced with a stiffer test. Handicap debut; has to improve but well bred and a tongue-tie is added. |

3/1(+73%) | (6) Tipsy Tiger 3/1, Fourth of 5 in handicap (11/10) at Windsor (11.4f, heavy) 22 days ago, hampered. Others possess greater potential. Can be headstrong but the ability is there to have some say. |

4th (3) (12/1 -100%) Rogue Raider |
12/1(-100%) | (3) Rogue Raider 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/3, first run since leaving Tom Clover when creditable third of 6 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and will need to raise his game a notch. Third on stable/handicap debut after hanging; the cheekpieces could be a positive. |

5th (5) (9/1 +18%) Balletic |
9/1(+18%) | (5) Balletic 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 9/2, seventh of 10 in minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, heavy) 12 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time for this handicap debut and improvement should be forthcoming. Salisbury only 12 days ago was disappointing and blinkers are soon turned to. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (66/1 -100%) Albert Lasker |
66/1(-100%) | (11) Albert Lasker 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 13 in handicap (22/1) at Newbury (10f, good) 11 days ago. Readily passed over. Close up on his winter debut on the AW but not a lot to shout about since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Yippee is bound to be popular turned out quickly under a 6lb penalty for a comfortable success at Pontefract last week. That said, it is ROGUE RAIDER (third), who was almost two lengths behind him at Haydock previously, that gets the vote on this occasion. The three-year-old is 7lb better off with Charlie Johnston's charge here and the booking of Tom Marquand catches the eye as he looks to get off the mark. Ashariba didn't seem to enjoy heavy ground on her return at Goodwood and is best judged on her success at Yarmouth.
The two with arguably the greatest potential are ASHARIBA and Campaign Medal. The former wasn't beaten far when fourth in what looked a decent Goodwood handicap on her reappearance and, with that run under her belt and better ground likely here, she can be expected to see things out better this time. Campaign Medal has shown signs of promise in three starts at around a mile and is likely to benefit from this stiffer test, while Amancio and recent Pontefract winner Yippee are others to consider.
Last week's winner Yippee is a major player but making a case for him brings ROGUE RAIDER right into the equation.

1st (3) (9/2 -13%) Filibustering |
9/2(-13%) | (3) Filibustering 9/2, Clear signs of ability in 3 starts on the AW during the winter and improved back from a break upped to 1¾m for his handicap debut at Wetherby (soft) in April. Easy to excuse his subsequent Chester run (shuffled right back 3f out) and remains one to be interested in. Just beaten on soft ground at Wetherby before held at Chester; bit to find with Mach Ten. |

2nd (1) (13/2 -44%) Mach Ten |
13/2(-44%) | (1) Mach Ten 13/2, 14/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Chester (12.3f, good) 19 days ago, going in snatches and merely passing beaten rivals. Steps up further in trip now. Ran better than it looked when fourth at Chester last time and shaped like a stayer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (16/1 -256%) Shadowofyoursmile |
16/1(-256%) | (2) Shadowofyoursmile 16/1, From a good family and fared a little better than previously when third of 5 on qualifying run in 5-runner maiden at Doncaster 32 days ago. Switch to handicaps/longer trip rate a plus now and market confidence behind her would look significant. Some improvement on turf debut last time, but didn't shape as though further would suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (20/1 -43%) Little Venice |
20/1(-43%) | (6) Little Venice 20/1, 10/1, bit below form having raced keener than ideal when third of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) 8 days ago, no extra final 1f. Others more persuasive. Third in her last three starts, though 11l behind the runner-up over C&D eight days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (6/4 +50%) Candle Wax |
6/4(+50%) | (7) Candle Wax 6/4, Son of Dubawi who finished down the field in trio of AW maidens late last year. However, represents top yard and feasible to think he can do better now handicapping (also gelded) upped markedly in trip. One to consider with blinkers enlisted. Well held in three starts over 1m on AW late last year; stamina in pedigree; blinkers on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (4/1 +67%) Oh What Fun |
4/1(+67%) | (4) Oh What Fun 4/1, Brought along gradually in trio of novice/maiden events at around 1m for Harry & Roger Charlton in the autumn. Gelded/switched yards ahead of return and feasible to expect improvement now handicapping over this longer trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Bred to stay and interesting to see how he fares in the market on stable/handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (22/1 -120%) Made In China |
22/1(-120%) | (5) Made In China 22/1, Showed ability in handful of starts as a 2-y-o but has disappointed both starts on AW/turf upon returning this spring. Stamina is tested further now but others more persuasive. Little in two starts since returning in March; needs the longer trip to unlock improvement. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Although MACH TEN was beaten by 10 lengths into fourth over an extended 1m4f at Chester last time, it did at least give the impression that he would be suited by a further step up in trip. The Ten Sovereigns gelding is related to a 2m winner, so it would come as no surprise were he to step forward. Ed Bethell can do little wrong at present, so Oh What Fun, who steps up markedly in distance on the back of a 200-day absence, is worth monitoring in the market. Similar comments apply to Candle Wax, but Filibustering might be better equipped.
The market should prove informative assessing the claims of a few here but FILIBUSTERING can easily have his latest run at Chester ignored and, having looked a sure-fire future winner when runner-up at Wetherby previously, he earns the vote. Candle Wax and Oh What Fun both appeal as likely improvers now handicapping/upped in trip and need considering, as does Shadowofyoursmile.
Preference is for MACH TEN who looked well worth a go over a longer trip when fourth at Chester last time.

4/1(+43%) | (12) Irezumi 4/1, 8/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good) 13 days ago. One of likelier contenders. Nearly cause 66-1 shock over C&D last month and both runs since were perfectly respectable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (12/1 -71%) Bbob Alula |
12/1(-71%) | (11) Bbob Alula 12/1, Course winner who stepped up on his reappearance run when close second of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 9/1) 26 days ago. Blinkers back on. Must enter calculations. Kept on well to go very close on AW this month and is also suited by this C&D; a player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (33/1 -106%) Roman Tempest |
33/1(-106%) | (8) Roman Tempest 33/1, C&D winner. 33/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at this course (11.9f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Soft-ground C&D winner in October but well beaten on both outings this year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (8/1 +60%) Lucidity |
8/1(+60%) | (5) Lucidity 8/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap (20/1) at Windsor (10f, heavy) 22 days ago. Still looking for first success. Has plausible excuses for both defeats this season; second off 6lb higher here last summer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Kojin posted his best effort for some time when placed at Bath and will likely have a say in proceedings, while Irezumi finished in front of Bbob Alula when going close at this venue last month. COME ON JOHN wasn't at his best when dropped in distance at Wolverhampton recently but was scoring off a higher mark over track and trip at this time last year and a bold bid looks on the cards.
Last year's winner COME ON JOHN has largely been in good form and has dropped to a handy mark. He may be able to take the prize home again. Bbob Alula and Kojin can also make their presence felt.
It might be worth chancing CORPORATE RAIDER, who didn't run badly on his seasonal reappearance and has slipped to a very tempting mark.

1st (6) (40/1 -21%) Indication Court |
40/1(-21%) | (6) Indication Court 40/1, Last of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Ripon (8f, good) 18 days ago. Others preferred. Drops in grade but with a great deal to prove; headgear returns. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (9/4 +18%) Travis |
9/4(+18%) | (1) Travis 9/4, Lightly-raced maiden. 7/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (6f, heavy) 31 days ago. Minor place money looks the most likely outcome. Handicap debut wasn't devoid of promise and he's dropped into a claimer here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (11/2 +31%) Buttercross Flyer |
11/2(+31%) | (2) Buttercross Flyer 11/2, Fair filly. 8/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good) 8 days ago. Place possibilities. Needs to turn a corner but dropping into a claimer should help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (11/2 +21%) Emu War |
11/2(+21%) | (5) Emu War 11/2, Modest filly. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Ripon (8f, good) 18 days ago. Visor on 1st time and she's likely to find one or two too good. 0-8 but these terms aren't impossible should the visor help in some shape or form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (10/3 -33%) She Is A Keeper |
10/3(-33%) | (8) She Is A Keeper 10/3, Fair filly. Ninth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 66/1) 20 days ago. Visor on 1st time and will have every chance if able to reproduce something akin to her 2-y-o turf form for Richard Hannon. Always a chance that more new headgear might trigger a return to form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (100/1 -52%) Itsalotafun |
100/1(-52%) | (7) Itsalotafun 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 12 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 70 days ago. Best to look elsewhere. Failed to beat a rival in 6f/7f novices at Wolverhampton in March. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (5/1 -67%) Petra Celera |
5/1(-67%) | (3) Petra Celera 5/1, Fair filly. Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. First run since leaving K. R. Burke when fourth of 6 in handicap at Catterick (7f, soft, 20/1) 5 days ago. Needs taking seriously down in grade here. Probably remains in fair form as soft ground was probably too slow the last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (50/1 -400%) Merrimack |
50/1(-400%) | (4) Merrimack 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good) 28 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Simon & Ed Crisford. Looks vulnerable. Failed to progress for the Crisfords but has low mileage and joined a respected yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
TRAVIS remains unexposed and drops down to claiming level for the first time. The son of Advertise may prove good enough with William Buick's presence in the saddle taking the eye. Petra Celera and She Is A Keeper are not badly treated on these terms with preference for the former of that pair, while Emu War may improve fitted with a visor for the first time.
SHE IS A KEEPER needs to bounce back following a poor effort at Kempton earlier this month, but there's a good chance that she will do so back on turf at this lower level and with the assistance of a first-time visor. Petra Celera has a good chance at the weights and is feared most ahead of Travis.
It's hard to be confident about any of these but TRAVIS wasn't seen to best effect on his handicap debut and remains lightly raced.

Clipped heels on debut before showing ability in novice at Nottingham (10.2f) 18 days ago, finishing with a late flourish from a poor position. Should progress.

Promising second of 6 in maiden at Haydock (8f, heavy) on debut 31 days ago, very green for the most part but offered plenty to work on by the end. Up in trip. Will progress.

First run for yard after leaving William Haggas. Sixth at Nottingham sole run for William Haggas; lots more needed for his new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
UNIQUE SPIRIT did incredibly well to fill the runner-up spot over 1m on his racecourse debut last month having lost many lengths leaving the stalls. The son of Waldgeist should be more streetwise here and, with a step up in trip likely to suit, he can go one better. Dubai First finished behind the selection in third that day and should also progress, but it is hard to see that form being reversed. Lord Chamberlain can chase the pair home.
PACK ICE was starting to get the hang of things when not beaten far in a small-field maiden at Pontefract and she's expected to take a step forward over this longer trip. Unique Spirit offered plenty to work on when second at Haydock and is another to consider, while Liberty Coach and Lord Chamberlain are both worth another chance to confirm debut promise.
David O'Meara's UNIQUE SPIRIT caught the eye when a debut Haydock second and he can take a sizeable step forward to go one better

2nd (9) (11/1 -38%) King Of War |
11/1(-38%) | (9) King Of War 11/1, C&D winner. Won 7-runner handicap (15/2) at Chepstow (7.1f, good). Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Alexandra Dunn. Worth monitoring in the betting. Ended last season with a Chepstow win and needs watching in market on return for new yard. |

5/1(+29%) | (8) Fierce 5/1, Only sixth of 9 in handicap (10/3) at Windsor (6f, heavy) 22 days ago. Should come on for that reappearance and blinkers go on for the first time, so no surprise if he makes his presence felt. Record of 1-14 and has something to prove in new headgear at this new trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A dual winner on the all-weather, MUSICAL MYSTERY finished a decent third at Leicester last time and looks set to open his account on turf with Ed Dunlop's yard in fine form. Twilight Dancer has been raised 5lb for last month's C&D success, while King Of War ended last season with a victory at Chepstow and has subsequently switched yards. Lunatick ran well at Bath on his reappearance and is another to bear in mind.
FIERCE shaped as if he'd strip fitter for his reappearance and, with blinkers on, he's worth taking a chance on from a handy mark. Recent C&D winner Twilight Dancer is an obvious danger and Falcon Nine has some potential starting out for a new yard.
Top of the list is TWILIGHT DANCER (nap), who made it 3-7 on turf with her comfortable win over C&D. Lunatick is feared most.

7/1(+50%) | (8) Perianth 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to soft, 11/2) 29 days ago. Sizeable step forward needed now making her way down the handicap route. Potential improver now handicapping at a modest level; betting can provide clues. |

Third at Kempton last month but backward step on turf latest; drops to 6f for h'cap debut. |

7/2(+65%) | (9) Mrs Thrump 7/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 12/1, third of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 85 days ago. Further progress likely now handicapping off a realistic opening mark. Promise in her three qualifying runs and she appeals as a likely improver now handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (9/2 +18%) Spirit Of The Rose |
9/2(+18%) | (5) Spirit Of The Rose 9/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 2/1, third of 6 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 73 days ago. Needs to improve now pitched into a handicap but that's entirely possible given the yard she represents and the booking of William Buick. Bred to be better than this mark but she needs to step up on the form of her three AW runs. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
WREN OFFICER has won a couple of sprints at Newcastle already this year. Unexposed on turf, she looks to have every chance off her current mark having placed in a higher grade last time. It was soft going when Cypriot Diaspora scored at Nottingham last month and she's preferred to Wolverhampton runner-up Mammy, while both Spirit Of The Rose and Noisy Music are open to improvement on their handicap debuts.
NOISY MUSIC and Mammy both look very much like winners-in-waiting judged on their recent efforts at Wolverhampton. Preference on this occasion is for the former, who shaped as though she would benefit from the return to this trip when chasing home Grandlad over 5f on debut for this yard, form which was given a timely boost when the winner went in again on Saturday. Wren Officer is likely to be in the mix, while handicap handicap debutantes Rockymountainway and Mrs Thrump also need a mention.
Noisy Music is a potential improver now handicapping but so is MRS THRUMP and Rossa Ryan's mount is marginally preferred this time.

1st (4) (9/4 -50%) Shifter |
9/4(-50%) | (4) Shifter 9/4, C&D winner in October. 1 win from 2 runs this year. 4/1, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 14 days ago, overcoming positional bias under this rider. Has good chance on form. Up 7lb after Ayr win but a rare run on ground softer than good gives her most to prove. |

Capable off this mark if things drop right. Possible excuses on last two starts given the heavy ground at Bath and Brighton track. |

4th (5) (17/2 +15%) Dandy's Angel |
17/2(+15%) | (5) Dandy's Angel 17/2, 25/1, respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good) 18 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Five wins last June-September, four of them over Beverley's 1m2f; no impact this term. |

5th (6) (10/1 -11%) Dream Selection |
10/1(-11%) | (6) Dream Selection 10/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in February. 25/1, last of 12 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) 29 days ago, lack of stamina upped in trip not solely to blame. Bit to prove on turf. Something to prove after tailing off at Windsor (11.4f) returned to turf four weeks ago. |

6th (1) (33/1 -106%) Too Much |
33/1(-106%) | (1) Too Much 33/1, Lightly-raced winner. 7/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f), doing too much too soon. Off 14 months. Up in trip. Sold from James Horton 6,000 gns after final start. Off since last April; left J Horton for 6,000gns in September; turf debut for 7lb claimer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Too Much drops a grade on her first start for new connections and her turf debut. She steps up in trip and is worthy of close consideration. Dream Selection has place chances on her better all-weather form if she can transfer that to the grass, but SHIFTER ticks lots of boxes. She has won two of her three starts over this trip including last time out and on her only previous start at this venue.
SHIFTER stepped up on her reappearance run when overcoming a positional bias for a convincing success at Ayr 2 weeks ago and a 7 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the follow up. Measured Moments is feared most.
With a ground doubt over Shifter, GOLDEN MELODY is narrowly preferred to Measured Moments and Dandy's Angel.

15/2(-15%) | (11) Mudlahhim 15/2, Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 4/1) 7 days ago. Can make presence felt. 0-19 on turf; has run well in his last four starts here, but others preferred for the win. |

4th (2) (20/1 -25%) Shaw Park |
20/1(-25%) | (2) Shaw Park 20/1, 66/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good) 28 days ago, slowly away. Work to do. 0-12 and showed nothing on his belated turf debut at Yarmouth last month; look elsewhere. |

5th (4) (20/1 -67%) Mr Fustic |
20/1(-67%) | (4) Mr Fustic 20/1, 10/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good) 38 days ago. Chance on old form. All four wins on the AW, but has shown little in six outings on turf; hard to fancy. |

40/1(-100%) | (10) We'renotreallyhere 40/1, 28/1, fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Others look better treated. Ran his best race for this yard last time, but didn't stay in one previous attempt at 1m. |

7th (9) (33/1 -340%) Adace |
33/1(-340%) | (9) Adace 33/1, Course winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in November. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft, 7/2) 19 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Each-way claims. No obvious excuses here last time and still looks high enough in the weights. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (14/1 -75%) Mayz |
14/1(-75%) | (12) Mayz 14/1, Posted solid placed efforts the last twice, latest when third of 8 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, heavy) 14 days ago. Should go well again. 1-14, but has run well to finish third from 1lb higher the last twice; each-way claims. |

9th (5) (25/1 -108%) Zafaan |
25/1(-108%) | (5) Zafaan 25/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap (11/2) at Newcastle (8f). Off 7 months. Needs a couple of these to falter. Unplaced all five starts since Doncaster win; watch market on return from seven months off. |

10th (8) (16/1 +20%) H Key Lails |
16/1(+20%) | (8) H Key Lails 16/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in February. Eleventh of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 9/2) 45 days ago, not ideally placed. Not out of things. 0-8 on turf, though he twice went close over 7f in the middle of last year including here. |

11th (7) (16/1 -14%) Roundabout Silver |
16/1(-14%) | (7) Roundabout Silver 16/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 10/1) 30 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. First and third in two starts over C&D and back off last winning mark; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (11/2 +8%) Ivasecret |
11/2(+8%) | (1) Ivasecret 11/2, Returned to winning ways at Kempton (8f) in February and arrives on back of solid fifth of 13 in handicap over same C&D last month, having to pick way through. Much lower mark to operate from back on turf and he must enter calculations. All five wins on the AW, but seven attempts on turf leave plenty to be desired. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Roundabout Silver won over C&D in September 2022 off 3lb higher and has conditions in his favour here. Ivasecret drops in class and looks potentially well handicapped on his all-weather form, but is yet to win on the turf after seven attempts, so BUY THE DIP gets the nod. He ran on well when beaten a neck over 7f here last week and is a C&D winner.
The step back up in trip will suit BUY THE DIP and he is fancied to return to winning ways. Ivasecret and Daisy Roots are feared most.
C&D winner BUY THE DIP may be the one to side with having finished clear of the rest when beaten a neck off this mark here last time.

12/1(+0%) | (3) Obee Jo 12/1, Respectable eighth of 14 in handicap (17/2) at Catterick (7f, good) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive. Beaten just under 4l in two 7f handicaps at Catterick this season, at a venue he runs well. |

2nd (6) (13/2 -44%) Cubanista |
13/2(-44%) | (6) Cubanista 13/2, Not the easiest to win with but made the frame again when creditable second of 14 in handicap (12/1) at Catterick (7f, good) 15 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again. He's mostly consistent and went down narrowly at Catterick two weeks ago. |

3rd (1) (5/2 +29%) Shark Two One |
5/2(+29%) | (1) Shark Two One 5/2, C&D winner who bounced back to form when very good second of 13 in handicap at this course (6f, good) 17 days ago. 2 lb rise fair and holds strong claims. Two 7f wins last autumn included one here; bumped into one in form again here recently. |

6th (2) (25/1 -150%) Angel Of Antrim |
25/1(-150%) | (2) Angel Of Antrim 25/1, Latest win at Newcastle in April. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 18/1) 18 days ago. Work to do. All three wins and best form has come on the AW; beat one home back on turf latest. |

7/2(+36%) | (9) Kalama Sunrise 7/2, Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Brighton (8f, good to soft) on return 7 days ago. Claims if building on that. 1 lb out of the weights. Two placed efforts last September included one over C&D; ran fine back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (9/1 +18%) Sir Titan |
9/1(+18%) | (4) Sir Titan 9/1, Latest win at Lingfield in January. 6/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 38 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Nine-race maiden but now into the veteran stage and has become hard to predict. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
SHARK TWO ONE went close over 6f here earlier in the month and he included a course and distance success in last season's double. The six-year-old is on a workable mark and has to be of interest. Cubanista had the measure of Obee Jo when runner-up at Catterick and can figure again, while Broxi has returned to a winning mark and makes more appeal than Kalama Sunrise of the remainder.
This can go to SHARK TWO ONE, who got back on track here earlier this month and will appreciate the step back up in trip. Broxi and Cubanista can also make their presence felt.
Low-grade fare. SHARK TWO ONE is a C&D winner who bumped into an in-form rival here last time and that was over 6f.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LEITZEL ran a nice race on her hurdling debut, despite never troubling the winner, and can take a step forward here. The Teofilo filly stayed on into second behind easy winner Pinot Gris at Bellewstown last month and with that experience under her belt she looks up to winning a race of this standard. Love Me also showed some promise when fourth on her hurdling debut at Limerick last month and is an obvious danger. African Lady showed a bit more when fifth at Downpatrick last time and may be able to get into the places now.
Henry de Bromhead's LOVE ME made a promising start when fourth in a big-field Limerick juvenile (form been franked) so can build on it to open her account. Leitzel rates the chief threat on the back of her Bellewstown debut second, while Gavin Cromwell's pair African Lady and Cornamona Park appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
A modest a maiden hurdle as you could find. LOVE ME's Limerick debut fourth could be good enough here

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
John Kirkup is worthy of serious consideration with Serena Brotherton in the saddle and, after 10 career wins, three over this trip and seven off higher marks, he could go close. Polam Lane is entitled to improve for his first run in 19 months when sixth at Catterick, but ENDERMAN has the best recent form. Only beaten half a length and a head on his last two starts, he deserves a victory and won't get many better chances.
ENDERMAN is knocking on the door, just denied in a better race than this at Nottingham 18 days ago, and this C&D winner could be the answer. Stormy Pearl is another who arrives in good form and is next beat ahead of The Gay Blade.
Paul Midgley's in-form C&D scorer ENDERMAN is taken to gain a deserved first success of 2024 with Simon Walker a plus in the saddle too

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SPANISH TENOR stands out here on his return to claiming grade. The Ado McGuinness-trained veteran won a similar race at this track for previous connections almost three years ago before subsequently being claimed. A revelation since then, the now 10-year-old who continues in fine fettle, should make all under Cian MacRedmond. El Bello has to be a serious threat now that he reverts to his optimum trip. The grey found a mile stretching his stamina last time but had been running well over this distance previously. Roderick may find this an inadequate test but first-time blinkers could enable the eight-year-old to travel better in the early stages. If doing so, few will be finishing stronger than the Denis Hogan-trained gelding.
SPANISH TENOR is now into the veteran stage but he wasn't disgraced having gone off hard when fifth in a Naas handicap over 1m 9 days ago and, eased in class, he could be ready to strike down in trip. Come On The Lads, Roderick and El Bello head up the dangers.
These are trappy races but COME ON THE LADS hasn't been running badly in maiden/handicap company.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Interestnpenalties is the only runner here with recent winning form after he scored at Wolverhampton last month, but he has never placed on the turf. Dan Dee Prince was a solid third here last time and can go well off the same mark, but JUST RITA could be the one. Beaten less than two lengths in a better race at Kempton latest, she should go well off 1lb lower in this grade.
Preference is for ARNAZ, who has shown ability in AW maidens and is open to improvement now sent handicapping on turf debut. Dan Dee Prince and Just Rita should also go well.
The pick is DAN DEE PRINCE, who took a big step back in the right direction when placed in a higher-grade C&D race four weeks ago.

Improvement required on handicap debut. 1 lb out of the weights. May show more now handicapping but it's been low-level stuff in maidens (6f-7f). |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Teddy Brown was beaten less than a length when third at Redcar on his turf debut and any further progress will see him bang there once again, although RINNOVATI may edge this. The latter made a promising debut for Archie Watson's yard when runner-up at Kempton on her first start handicapping and there looks to be plenty more to come. Aspire To Glory has won off a similar mark on the all-weather and could go well, with Hits The Front and Eagle Landed perhaps best of the rest.
RINNOVATI is still low mileage and made a positive start for Archie Watson at Kempton earlier this month. She can open her account. Teddy Brown and Aspire To Glory rate the principal dangers.
Rae Guest is renowned for his patient approach and HITS THE FRONT (nap) can build on his promising first run over 7f.

Winner in hurdle at Gowran in September. 15/2, last of 5 in juvenile hurdle at Naas (15.8f, heavy) 108 days ago so needs to bounce back.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
This looks like a nice opportunity for PIGEON HOUSE. The Saxon Warrior gelding won a competitive handicap hurdle at Punchestown before a solid run on the Flat at Gowran Park last time. He is second top-rated here off his mark of 126. Cossack Chach is rated a pound superior but comes here having pulled up at Punchestown earlier in the month. He has a bit to prove after that poor showing. Pinot Gris, an easy winner at Bellewstown last time, could prove a bigger danger despite having a few pounds to find on official ratings.
PIGEON HOUSE has some fairly useful form to his name and looks the way to go on the back of his good recent third on the Flat. Barrier also has the form to have a say and is next on the list ahead of Pinot Gris and Voice of Reason.
Much improved since beaten by Open To Question last autumn, PIGEON HOUSE has good claims by virtue of a Punchestown handicap win

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The Johnny Murtagh-trained GLEN PRINCESS will be hard to beat if taking a step forward from her recent promising debut. Fourth in a Dundalk maiden first time up, that particular race has subsequently been boosted by both the third and fifth placed fillies. With an ease in the ground unlikely to be of any concern, the daughter of Calyx can gain a first career success. Straya, who ran well in a competitive fillies handicap at the Curragh recently, should make her presence felt. The Jack Davison-trained three-year-old has plenty experience which could be crucial in a race such as this. Tokenomics has been running well enough in similar contests to suggest he will eventually get his turn.
GLEN PRINCESS offered plenty to work on first time up when fourth in a Dundalk maiden over this trip 45 days ago and, open to improvement, she's selected to take a step forward and make it second time lucky. Next Trick, Tokenomics and Straya are others to consider.
An open maiden. GLEN PRINCESS made a very likeable debut at Dundalk when coming from well off the pace.

1/4(+50%) | (2) Valgrand 1/4, Very useful form shown in bumpers and scored readily on his hurdles debut in 2m Uttoxeter maiden 24 days ago. The one to beat with more to come. Fourth in Grade 2 bumper at Aintree last month and won on recent hurdling debut. |

7/2(-17%) | (1) Speed Davis 7/2, Irish/point bumper winner who landed maiden at Musselburgh (17.4f) in April. Solid fourth under a penalty at Hexham following month so needs considering. Disappointing favourite last time but was emphatic winner at Musselburgh in April. |

More is required. Beaten about 15l when sixth in weak maiden here (2m) on recent hurdling debut. |

100/1(-100%) | (5) We Ain't Walking 100/1, Pulled up sole start in Irish points but has shown ability in his two runs over hurdles this spring, fifth in 2m Ludlow novice on latter occasion. Possibilities. Not beaten far when fifth of six on hurdling debut at Ludlow but much more is needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (300/1 -140%) After Midnight |
300/1(-140%) | (6) After Midnight 300/1, In need of experience in 2 bumpers but has failed to complete both starts in maiden hurdles, losing touch before 2 out when pulled up at Hereford (19.7f) last time. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Failed to complete when a big-priced outsider for first two hurdling attempts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
VALGRAND displayed a high level of ability in bumpers and he made a seamless transition to hurdling when winning at Uttoxeter earlier this month. Despite the penalty, the five-year-old appears to have been found an ideal opportunity to follow up. Speed Davis must also shoulder a penalty but he is still the main danger, while Touchwoodexpress is most appealing of the remainder.
Dan Skelton's VALGRAND scored in good style on his hurdling bow at Uttoxeter and rates a confident choice to defy a 7 lb penalty and follow up. Hexham fourth Speed Davis appeals as the one to chase him home, with We Ain't Walking looking best equipped to take minor honours.
It's hard to get away from VALGRAND, who ran very well in a hot Aintree bumper last month and has since won over hurdles.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
KILKEE BAY bumped into one here three weeks ago when chasing home easy winner Supersundae and this looks a winnable opportunity now. The Ocovango gelding had shaped with promise when fourth in a decent maiden hurdle at Punchestown previously and should be up to landing a summer contest now. Bridgehead has an absence to overcome but has been placed in all three of his runs over timber and should be a big player if fit and ready on his return. Eoin's Charm ran well when fourth on his debut here last month and should improve from that. He is another leading contender.
EOIN'S CHARM offered plenty to work on when fourth in a novice here last month and, with improvement on the cards, he's the one to side with here. Kilkee Bay is closely matched on form and Whale Harbour is a threat if he can get back on the up.
The experience gained in three decent maiden hurdles last winter may be enough to see WHALE HARBOUR account for these rivals

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
A wide draw is far from ideal for MY MATE MIKE, but he might be worth taking a chance on. Dean Ivory's gelding hasn't been able to land a blow in two turf starts recently, but he returns to the all-weather on the same mark as February's C&D success and could bounce back. Mount Mogan hit the frame over track and trip on his latest outing and must be considered, while Sam's Hope could prove best of the remainder.
A tight-knit handicap in which C&D scorer MOUNT MOGAN edges the vote on the back of his good C&D third last time out. Fayasel is weighted to have a say and can emerge as the main danger with Big Bard another who commands plenty of respect. Thoughtful Gift completes the shortlist.
This can go to THOUGHTFUL GIFT (nap) who can prove suited by the return to the AW following two soft-ground defeats on turf.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ROCK N ROLL ROCKET, one of only two previous winners in the race, can maintain his unbeaten record. A winner at Cork on his debut earlier this month, the form of that race was boosted when the runner-up won his maiden next time out. Well treated by these race conditions, the Jessica Harrington-trained colt holds leading claims. Alfred Tennyson has to concede weight all round on his racecourse debut but the Aidan O'Brien-trained newcomer could well be capable of doing so. Goodwood maiden winner Brosay has progressed in each of his three runs to date. While he may well need to take another step forward here, the Diego Dias-trained representative has further scope for improvement.
Preference is for ROCK N ROLL ROCKET, who got off the mark at the first time of asking at Cork earlier this month and is entitled to build on that. Powerful Lady acquitted herself well in the same contest and could be dangerous, whilst Evening Saigon and Alfred Tennyson are newcomers to note.
It could pay to chance EVENING SAIGON whose yard won this three years ago with the smart Twilight Jet.

15/8(+37%) | (4) Imperial Bede 15/8, French bumper/hurdles winner who ran out a ready winner on chase debut at Southwell (20.4f) in February. Yet to build on that, let down by jumping when fourth at Hereford 2 weeks ago, but he's better than that. Not fully exposed and any further rain would be to his advantage; contender.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Although Le Cameleon has not been at his very best in recent starts, the nine-year-old finds himself on a competitive mark and should fare better eased in class on his second outing following wind surgery. Bagheera Ginge proved to be largely consistent over the larger obstacles last year and is worth considering ahead of his return, but it is LIPA K that shades preference. The son of Mamool made a successful fencing bow over an extended 2m1f here last month, so a 6lb rise might not be enough to stop him with improvement likely.
This looks wide-open but LIPA K overcame mistakes when making a winning chase bow here 5 weeks ago and he's entitled to improve on that with this longer trip a possible help. Le Cameleon is becoming well handicapped and offered something to work on starting out for this yard at Kempton, while Imperial Bede is better than able to show last time.
Lipa K commands respect in his follow-up bid but preference is for IMPERIAL BEDE who is better than he showed last time.

Switches from chase to hurdles. Player. Recent course winner over fences, runs off 19lb lower than her revised chase rating. |

15/2(-15%) | (3) First Dare 15/2, 9/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (17f, good to soft) 34 days ago, clear of rest. Not taken lightly. In good form last autumn, back from winter break with solid run at Bellewstown, respected. |

33/1(+50%) | (12) Brilliant Question 33/1, 12/1, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Limerick (11.2f, soft) 12 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Booking of Shinnick a plus but others look better treated at these weights. Limerick heavy ground winner but recent form leaves her with plenty to find; 9lb wrong. |

9th (9) (16/1 -14%) Doctor Nightingale |
16/1(-14%) | (9) Doctor Nightingale 16/1, Respectable 14 lengths sixth of 11 to Redwood Queen in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.7f, good, 5/1) 18 days ago, doing too much too soon. Needs considering. Only sixth behind today's rival Redwood Queen in a handicap at Down Royal last time. |

10/1(+38%) | (7) Gone For Tea 10/1, Respectable third of 13 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good, 2/1) 18 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to progress. Decent form at Downpatrick, a bit below her best when third at the same venue last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
JE T'AI PORTE was a cosy winner over fences here three weeks ago and runs off a half-stone lower mark now back over timber. The versatile Footstepsinthesand mare bounced out and made all here last time and front-running is often a big plus around here. Jolie Coeur Allen ran well at Bellewstown on her handicap debut and could get involved again but is a bit of a weak finisher. Flidais has been runner-up on her last couple of outings, including over further here last month. She's another one for the shortlist in a race where plenty can be given chances.
Lots with chances but JE T'AI PORTE edges the vote reverted to hurdles on the back of his chasing win here. In-form Jolie Coeur Allen heads the list of dangers, although Gone For Tea, Redwood Queen and First Dare are others who can have a big say.
A hopeful vote goes to MEDIA NARANJA who ran well in a Punchestown festival handicap and has a good 7lb claimer aboard

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (80/1 -21%) Falling For You |
80/1(-21%) | (9) Falling For You 80/1, 150/1, last of 10 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 27 days ago. Others more persuasive. Contender on her 2yo best but she's suffered heavy defeats the last twice. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The consistent MART was able to cash in on a spell of good form when winning at Newmarket 11 days ago and would appear to hold solid claims off a 4lb higher mark. Invincible Speed and See You Tonight are the dangers, with the former feared most on the basis that he was really impressive when winning at Wolverhampton in January.
MART can boast a C&D success and comes here on the back of a career-best Newmarket success so is hard to side against. Southwell third Torvar hails from an in-form yard and is next on the list, while Invincible Speed and Miami Heat also merit respect in an open handicap.
Invincible Speed can go well dropped in class but handicap debutante SEE YOU TONIGHT remains capable of better.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The well-bred Adrian Murray-trained VARNER could be capable of making a winning debut. Related to some very smart speedy types, the daughter of Elzaam is in the right hands to be forward enough to be competitive first-time up. Recent Cork third Shamrock Breeze has to rate a live threat for trainer Ado McGuinness. Having shown plenty of early speed on that occasion, the filly only weakened late on. Over this fast 5f, she could be difficult to peg back if getting away quickly. Truly Enchanting has to command respect for Aidan O'Brien and Ryan Moore. Although the daughter of No Nay Never may find this trip on the sharp side, it is never wise to dismiss debutants from this yard.
This can go to FLASH THE CASH, who was well supported when making a pleasing racecourse bow at Cork last week. Shamrock Breeze also acquitted herself well in the same contest and looks sure to go well, whilst Truly Enchanting may be the pick of the newcomers.
The beautifully-bred TRULY ENCHANTING(nap) is taken to make a winning debut and confidence would be bolstered by market strength.

Hasn't progressed from that since, including on handicap/chasing debut at Stratford last time. Something to prove. Well held on chase/handicap debut latest but return to longer trip and hurdles might suit.. |

5/1(+33%) | (1) Tregele 5/1, Showed promise in early starts over hurdles and got back on track when fifth in a handicap at Ffos Las 13 days ago. This is less competitive and he should be involved. Ran well for a long way latest; relatively unexposed and longer trip should suit.. |

11/2(-10%) | (3) Electric Jet 11/2, Runner-up on the first of his 2 starts in maiden points last spring.

Enters calculations now up in trip on handicap debut having shown promise at 2m4f.. |

|PU| (9) (9/2 -35%) Newtonian |
9/2(-35%) | (9) Newtonian 9/2, Belatedly off the mark when landing a handicap hurdle at Warwick (25f, good to soft) 22 days ago, finding extra. Can make presence felt again. Belatedly off the mark last time; 3lb rise looks fair and respected. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A step up in trip might hold the key to ELECTRIC JET's chances, and he is taken to build on a couple of promising efforts in maiden company now sent handicapping off a workable mark. Newtonian was on target over 3m1f at Warwick earlier this month and should be more than capable raised just 3lb in the ratings, while others to note include Josie Alice and Minniemum.
ELECTRIC JET has shaped with encouragement on a couple of hurdling outings and his point form gives him scope for improvement, so he's worth a chance to make a successful handicap debut at the possible expense of last-time-out winner Newtonian. Tregele is another one to consider in a less-competitive event than the one he contested at Ffos Las recently.
Plenty to consider in an open contest. Nelson Criq is respected but a chance is taken on JOSIE ALICE back up in distance.

16/1(-60%) | (16) Young Fitzy 16/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle (4/1) at this course (21.4f, good) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Should remain competitive. Decent enough runs here of late; return to 2m1f to suit and place claims. |

12/1(+14%) | (7) San Aer 12/1, Very good seventh of 14 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Kilbeggan (16f, good) 11 days ago. Still lightly raced and could up his game again. Yet to reproduce his Flat form hurdling; more needed. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Better ground seemed to make a big difference to TELL US THIS at Down Royal earlier in the month, where he won but was subsequently disqualified. The Westerner gelding still looked plenty green then, edging right in the closing stages and hampering Benjis Benefit. He runs off a 6lb higher mark now and may be able to gain compensation after losing the race on appeal. Luimneach returns from an absence but could play a big part on his seasonal debut. The Fame And Glory gelding has dropped 3lb since last being seen at Fairyhouse in April 2023 and this nice ground should play to his strengths. Dreamz ran a big race on her last visit here and is another that has to come into calculations.
TELL US THIS was first past the post (subsequently demoted) in a 20-runner event at Down Royal last time and is worth a chance to gain compensation here. Must Go Now is a danger if he's none the worse for his latest fall and Dreamz is worthy of consideration.
Demoted after getting off the mark at Down Royal early in the month, TELL US THIS can rectify matters here

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
DIAMOND DREAMER came up just short when attempting to complete a hat-trick on the turf here 12 days ago. That effort showed he is still in good form and Patrick Chamings' charge can regain the winning thread back on an artificial surface. Agostino is another who should benefit from a return to the all-weather and looks a likely candidate despite his wide draw. Beauld As Brass is also noted.
Adam West's new recruit BEAULD AS BRASS teed himself up well for this when fourth after an absence at Brighton and can get back to winning ways at the chief expense of C&D winner Diamond Dreamer. Fellow C&D scorer Miss Moonshine is also weighted to go well, with Sovereign Slipper and Agostino in the picture too if back on song.
A few with chances but BEAULD AS BRASS is taken to build on his promising fourth at Brighton and he edges the vote.

Wears tongue strap. 9/2 and tongue strap on, sixth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (7f) on debut, not knocked about. Off 6 months. Down in trip. Visored for 1st time. Should improve.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Despite being a 10-race maiden, the Diego Dias-trained GAENARI looks to hold solid claims under Gavin Ryan. Just touched off at Hamilton last time, the filly had previously run a big race when third at Dundalk. Listed placed as a juvenile last season, the daughter of Inns Of Court may finally get her day. The locally-trained Staysound Susie is another that has run well on multiple occasions without managing to get her head in front. Similar to the Dias filly, she has enough ability to open her account at some point. David Marnane's Movento showed enough when staying on in seventh last time to suggest he, too, has races in him. He may just need another run or two.
GAENARI is working her way back to her best and this looks an excellent opportunity for her to open her account. Staysound Susie and Red Hugh O'Donnell can follow the selection home.
STAYSOUND SUSIE has run well several times and wasn't far behind a subsequently Listed-placed horse at Cork last time, so gets the nod.

Whatdeawant |
(4) (6/1 +8%)6/1(+8%) | (4) Whatdeawant 6/1, Pretty useful novice hurdler for Willie Mullins during 2021/22 campaign, best effort when third in the Ballymore at the Cheltenham Festival. Safely held when third back from over a year off for new yard in a Hexham handicap chase (2½m, soft) earlier this month and he's probably worth taking on. Smart novice hurdler in 2022 but just a respectable third in recent Hexham handicap chase. |

Boombawn |
(1) (10/3 -21%)10/3(-21%) | (1) Boombawn 10/3, Useful hurdler who made the perfect start over fences when scoring with plenty left in the tank at Warwick (2½m, good) recently. Mark looks manageable on handicap debut in this sphere and he'll be the one to beat if taking his chance. Engaged 4.05 Cartmel Monday. Five-time hurdle winner; scored on recent chasing debut; finished 3rd at Cartmel Monday. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (7) (12/1 +64%) Lesser |
12/1(+64%) | (7) Lesser 12/1, Point/bumper winner who looked a good prospect when landing brace of novice hurdles during first half of 2021. Well below par both starts since returning from a lengthy absence, though, including when returned to this sphere at Uttoxeter last time. Back from mammoth absence with two disappointing runs this year; tricky to weigh up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (11/8 +77%) Flaming Ambition |
11/8(+77%) | (6) Flaming Ambition 11/8, Won sole start in points and confirmed promise of eye-catching hurdling debut up in trip when landing a 21f Warwick maiden in March 2022. Off for 2 years prior to last month's return/chase debut at Uttoxeter (3m, heavy) but that didn't stop him and there could be more to come from this 7-y-o. Very lightly raced 7yo; returned from long absence to win on last month's chasing debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (5/1 -50%) Hometown Boy |
5/1(-50%) | (2) Hometown Boy 5/1, Useful hurdles form during 2020/21 campaign, the highlight of which was a Grade 3 handicap success at Aintree. Shaped as though plenty of ability remains intact when third on chase debut following a lengthy absence in October, but failed to complete next time and others look stronger. First two chasing attempts did not go well but he may yet get his act together over fences. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (4/1 +56%) Watergrange Jack |
4/1(+56%) | (5) Watergrange Jack 4/1, Showed improved form over hurdles in 2023/24, successful at Worcester in August before going on to score twice at Fontwell. Left low-key chase debut behind when going close at Stratford (22.6f, good) recently and he has to enter calculations. Pulled up on chasing debut but this month's close second at Stratford was much better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (10/3 +17%) First Street |
10/3(+17%) | (3) First Street 10/3, Four-time hurdles winner who was turned over when long odds on for a match on chase debut at Kempton in November. Bettered that when 4½ lengths fourth to Boombawn at Warwick (due to meet that rival on same terms here), for all that his jumping still lacked conviction. This stiffer test may help. Smart hurdler at his best but yet fully to convince as a chaser after two attempts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
An interesting field includes the classy hurdler HOMETOWN BOY, who was a Grade 3 winner over the smaller obstacles. Third on his debut over fences, the nine-year-old fell at Newbury in February but may be worth another chance after three months off. Flaming Ambition won't be stopping over this trip judged on his narrow Uttoxeter victory and, from nearer the bottom of the weights, he could rival Stratford second Watergrange Jack in the race for the places.
The vote goes to the unexposed FLAMING AMBITION, who was returning from a two-year absence when making a winning chase debut at Uttoxeter. A 4 lb rise almost certainly underestimates him. If Boombawn goes to post he will take some stopping but, assuming he takes up his engagement at Cartmel on Monday, Watergrange Jack and First Street could emerge as the main dangers.
The vote goes to very lightly raced 7yo FLAMING AMBITION, who made a good start to his chasing career last month.

13/2(+35%) | (4) Rideau Canal 13/2, Creditable fourth of 17 in handicap hurdle (9/1) at Naas (19.3f, soft) 42 days ago. Not taken lightly. Creditable comeback run at Naas last month; this probably his stamina limit. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
I AM SPIDER MAN stayed on well when fourth at Downpatrick last time and looks capable of winning one of these back in the lowest grade. The Walk In The Park gelding remains on the same mark of 94 and should be capable of striking off that if things fall his way. Ask Cillian ran well at a big price here three weeks ago when chasing home Whatyouwant and if she can repeat that showing she'd be a big player despite a 3lb rise. Sineads Fancy is another who was placed at fancy odds here three weeks ago and also has to be considered.
Save for a mistake at the final flight at Bellewstown last month, GET IT RIGHT would probably be a maiden no more and he is taken to gain compensation here. I Am Spider Man put in a good shift when fourth at Downpatrick recently and he is next on the list ahead of Ask Cillian and Rideau Canal.
A bad blunder at the last deprived GET IT RIGHT of victory at Bellewstown last month and he gest the nod here

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Middlesex has a couple of second places to her name and travels down for Charlie Johnston with every hope of a first success, but she hasn't been seen since October last year and LOVEABLE ROGUE might have an edge. Second and beaten less than a length at Wolverhampton earlier this month on only her second start, she could go one better. Ehtiram is another to consider with her stable in good form.
LOVEABLE ROGUE left her debut form well behind when second at Wolverhampton at the beginning of the month and is the obvious choice to go one better. Ehtiram is a nicely bred sort who should have more to offer this season and is feared most ahead of the more exposed Middlesex.
There aren't many striking candidates to improve past Loveable Rogue and Middlesex but EHTIRAM is one.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Dropping into handicap company for the first time, the Aidan O'Brien-trained SWEETEST could be the answer. Winner of a Dundalk maiden in November, the Blue Point filly has been highly tried in three subsequent starts. Now back racing at what may well be her optimum distance, the three-year-old can beat her elders. Sevensees ran his best race to date when third over this minimum trip at Navan on his penultimate start. The Johnny Murtagh-trained gelding may not have appreciated stepping back up a furlong in trip last time. It would come as no surprise to see a big run here. Never Shout Never showed a little more last time so is another that can get involved.
SPORTING HERO pulled too hard returned to 6f at Naas last time so is worth another chance to build on his promising run at the Curragh. Mount Ruapehu and Sweetest head the dangers.
SEVENSEES was previously a fine third on good at Navan and can get off the mark back to this trip as long as the going doesn't soften.

5/2(+29%) | (5) Collingham 5/2, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark when winning 9-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow (15.8f, good to firm, 17/2) 16 days ago. Just 3 lb higher now and must enter calculations. Respected back up 3lb if in the same form as when winning at Ludlow last time.. |

5/2(-25%) | (4) Finest View 5/2, Won 4 on the bounce for this yard in spring 2022 but not at the same level for Andrew Martin last year. However, her mark has dropped as a result and she made her second start back with Alan King a winning one at Stratford (16.3f, good to soft) last month. 2 lb rise very fair. Back to winning ways at Stratford last month; remains well treated back up 2lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (10/3 +17%) Tedley |
10/3(+17%) | (2) Tedley 10/3, Wincanton maiden winner (15.2f) in February who has hit the frame in a brace of handicaps this spring, latterly when fourth, in first-time cheekpieces, at Hexham (16.2f, soft) earlier this month. Should go well again. Reliable and versatile 5yo who should give another good account.. |

15/2(+46%) | (7) Let's Go Joe 15/2, Runner-up in a point before making winning hurdles bow for new yard in maiden at Sedgefield in November.

7th (3) (25/1 -150%) Sea Grey |
25/1(-150%) | (3) Sea Grey 25/1, Fairly useful performer on Flat who got off the mark for new connections over hurdles at Catterick (19.3f) in December. Disappointed in both completed starts over timber since, however, and others look better treated. Unseated early in a C&D handicap latest; capable 5yo but has a point to prove at present.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Donald McCain has a good recent record in this race and Forcing Bull is one to note with Brian Hughes booked. Pulled up on his only two starts last season, the seven-year-old could do better if he settles here, but may have to give way to TEDLEY. Fourth in a higher grade at Hexham last time, he races off the same mark now and could make the most of the weaker opposition. Collingham and Finest View might battle it out for third spot.
FINEST VIEW returned to winning ways at Stratford last month and remains nicely treated on old form. She can follow up. Collingham and Tedley look the likeliest dangers.
Collingham has to be feared but FINEST VIEW (nap) remains on a good mark despite going back up 2lb for her recent Stratford win.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
IT'S TIME AGAIN has hit the crossbar on her last couple of visits here and may be able to gain a deserved win now. The Shirocco mare has won twice here in the past and ran well on her two outings this season, most recently when third to Whatyouwant three weeks ago. The winner turns out again here having been fifth at Clonmel since and is now 6lb worse off. Roscomroe also has recent course form having been runner-up at a massive price here three weeks ago. The Getaway gelding only went up a pound and is a big player if he can repeat that showing.
IT'S TIME AGAIN boasts a good record at this course, which includes a success in a division of this race in 2022, and she is the most appealing candidate. If able to build on the improvement he showed when runner-up here last time, Roscomroe should have a part to play, while The Vegas Raider and Whatyouwant are place money contenders.
ROSCOMROE put up a career-best when a clear second over C&D three weeks ago and is taken to go one better off just a 1lb higher mark

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
With the James Fanshawe horses hitting top gear recently it may pay to side with top-weight CAMBRIA LEGEND after he scored by close to five lengths over this trip at Haydock. He does have an added 9lb from the handicapper, but that may not stop him doubling up in this company. Crimson Road was a solid third on his return from a gelding operation and can only improve with experience, while Endosser might also go well.
CAMBRIA LEGEND looks the way to go here on the back of his emphatic Haydock victory, with Crimson Road appealing as the one to chase home James Fanshawe's improver. Marefuori appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.
Most have something to prove on turf but CAMBRIA LEGEND was a fine sight in the closing stages of his win at Haydock.

Imperial Khan |
(13) (66/1 -32%)66/1(-32%) | (13) Imperial Khan 66/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Last of 13 in handicap at Naas (5f, good, 80/1) 17 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Well beaten in three starts for this yard and blinkers need to work. |

1st (9) (9/2 +31%) Cuban Grey |
9/2(+31%) | (9) Cuban Grey 9/2, Respectable third of 16 in handicap (15/2) at Navan (5.8f, good) 10 days ago. Has good chance on form. Just denied over 5f and then found 6f a stretch last two runs, both at Navan; solid chance. |

2nd (16) (14/1 -56%) Improving |
14/1(-56%) | (16) Improving 14/1, One win from 34 Flat runs. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Blinkered for 1st time, below form fifth of 16 in handicap (6/1) at Cork (6f, soft). Off 8 months. Looks competitive on form. Sole win came in a Limerick maiden in 2020; an e/w shout on some of his better runs. |

3rd (11) (13/2 +35%) Un Bacio Ancora |
13/2(+35%) | (11) Un Bacio Ancora 13/2, One win from 39 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, bit below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, good) 10 days ago, nearest finish. Just 1-39 but some decent runs lately; probably better over further. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (15) (12/1 +25%) Coco Hill |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (12/1 -20%) Make Clear |
12/1(-20%) | (1) Make Clear 12/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Dundalk in April. 16/1, bit below form third of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 29 days ago, going off too hard. Won on debut for this yard on AW but not as good since and unproven on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (12/1 +14%) Realtin Fantasy |
12/1(+14%) | (7) Realtin Fantasy 12/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Dundalk in November. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Dundalk (5f), met some trouble. Off 179 days. A C&D maiden winner has run well here many times since and can do so again on return. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (6/1 +0%) Aloysius Lilius |
6/1(+0%) | (3) Aloysius Lilius 6/1, C&D winner. 28/1, respectable fifth of 16 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, good) 10 days ago. Won over C&D last August off 3lb higher; not a bad Navan run over 6f last time; squeak. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
C&D winner ALOYSIUS LILIUS shaped well enough at Navan last time to suggest his turn is near. Now rated 3lb lower than when successful here last August, it must also be highly significant that Colin Keane resumes the partnership. Cuban Grey, who finished a couple of places in front of Aloysius Lilius last time, must also enter calculations. One obvious concern for supporters is the fact that he will almost certainly be taken on for the lead. Sligo claiming winner Eruption could be suited to how the race is likely to pan out, as she can track the furious pace before her proven stamina comes into effect late on.
MARBLE ANGEL's opening mark looks a fair one on the pick of her maiden form with the drop to 5f another positive. Havana Notion was a close third on his return to turf at Navan 3 weeks ago and is next best ahead of Cuban Grey.
MY GIRL SIOUX has been running with credit recently and could turn around Navan form with Cuban Grey and Havana Notion.

Al Sayah |
(5) (5/4 +17%)5/4(+17%) | (5) Al Sayah 5/4, Looks to be improving well, making it 2 from 2 in handicaps in dominant fashion in 6-runner event at Hereford (19.7f, good to soft) last week. More to come and much respected in hat-trick bid. Improving filly; strong chance of completing the hat-trick under penalty.. |

Never No Trouble |
(1) (22/1 -83%)22/1(-83%) | (1) Never No Trouble 22/1, Consistent sort who clearly wasn't 100% percent on the day when last of 6 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (19.8f, soft) in November. Cheekpieces reapplied and can bounce back after a break. Aided by Williams Maggs's 5lb claim, she can make her presence felt back from a break.. |

1st (2) (6/5 +70%) Barrons Land |
6/5(+70%) | (2) Barrons Land 6/5, Showed improved form making a quick switch to handicaps when winning 14-runner event at Sedgefield (19.8f, good) 18 days ago. Can progress again. Game effort to win on handicap debut; respected and likely there's more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/6 +63%) Special Dragon |
5/6(+63%) | (4) Special Dragon 5/6, Progressed again over 2f longer trip when winning 8-runner handicap at Ludlow (21.2f, good) 34 days ago, leading on bridle 3 out and in command last. Hiked up 11 lb but has more to offer and can follow up. 11lb hike for her latest win will ask a question but she could prove to be up to it.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/1 +0%) Chooch |
9/1(+0%) | (3) Chooch 9/1, Failed by a long chalk to confirm previous form when pulled up in maiden hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good) 19 days ago. Has shown ability and improvement not ruled out on handicap debut fitted with a hood.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
AL SAYAH is looking for a hat-trick under a 7lb penalty but Dylan Johnston's 5lb claim will help with that. An easy nine-length winer at Hereford on Friday, she is turned out quickly and could strike again at this level. Barrons Land may take them along and set the race up for the selection, although Special Dragon won with some ease at Ludlow and may prove the bigger danger.
A good race for the grade with SPECIAL DRAGON, Al Sayah and Barrons Land all unexposed and appealing as the types to win more races, with narrow preference for the first named, who looked some way ahead of her mark when thumping her 7 rivals at Ludlow last month.
Barrons Land and Special Dragon are respected but they might struggle to concede weight to the hat-trick seeking AL SAYAH.

Soir De Garde |
(4) (4/6 -8%)4/6(-8%) | (4) Soir De Garde 4/6, Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including top-class hurdler State Man and useful hurdler Statuaire. Dam hurdle/chase winner up to 19f. Wears a hood for his debut and is clearly the one to beat. Half-brother to the outstanding State Man, yard won this with Mystical Power last year. |

The Correction |
(5) (20/1 -100%)20/1(-100%) | (5) The Correction 20/1, Once-raced maiden. 22/1 and tongue strap on, second of 10 in bumper at Punchestown (16f, good to soft) on NH debut, running on. Off 15 months. Open to improvement if all is well. Went very close at Punchestown early last year, concerning that he has not been seen since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (6) (7/2 +84%) Minella Hollow |
7/2(+84%) | (6) Minella Hollow 7/2, Beat Hollow gelding. Closely related to 2 winners, including modest hurdler It's All About Me, and half-brother to bumper winner/useful hurdler Tag Man, stays 23f. Makes some appeal on paper. Decent pedigree and in good hands but may need further than this, best watched. |

2nd (8) (7/2 +50%) Gers Gigi |
7/2(+50%) | (8) Gers Gigi 7/2, Once-raced maiden. Third of 16 in bumper (7/1) at this course (16.8f, good) on NH debut 21 days ago. Worth considering. Around 3l third behind a stablemate of Soir De Garde here on debut, may need to improve. |

4/1(+43%) | (7) Arctic Piper 4/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good to soft, 11/4) on NH debut 33 days ago. Needs to improve. May be capable of better than on Wexford debut but this looks a hot bumper for this venue. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (11/4 +73%) I Am Mimi |
11/4(+73%) | (2) I Am Mimi 11/4, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 19 in bumper at Punchestown (18.8f, heavy, 6/1) 25 days ago. Not one to write off. Started career with a good 2m effort at Punchestown, failed to match that form in 2m3f run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (7/2 +81%) Garnacho |
7/2(+81%) | (1) Garnacho 7/2, Once-raced maiden. 4/1, fifth of 11 in bumper at this course (16.5f, good) on NH debut. Off 12 months. 4-1 at this venue a year ago when unplaced behind the top-class Mystical Power, off since. |

6th (10) (66/1 +67%) Nicolas Fortune |
66/1(+67%) | (10) Nicolas Fortune 66/1, Soldier of Fortune mare. Half-sister to fair 21f hurdle winner Kaituna River and Westernerka. Wears tongue strap. Maiden pointer, pulled up last 2 starts (Apr 2023). Twice placed in points but pulled up twice before long absence, unlikely to feature. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (300/1 -20%) Heure Exacte |
300/1(-20%) | (9) Heure Exacte 300/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, pulled up in bumper (250/1) at Punchestown (18.4f, heavy) 149 days ago, tailing off end of back straight. Poor form in three bumpers, pulled up on hurdles debut, can be ruled out.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (33/1 +50%) Kilroe Champ |
33/1(+50%) | (3) Kilroe Champ 33/1, Milan gelding. Brother to fairly useful hurdler Itsnotyouitsme and half-brother to a point winner. Dam modest 17f-21f hurdle winner. Wears tongue strap. Makes belated debut at the age of seven with a tongue-tie fitted, tough task. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Willie Mullins is hard to oppose in bumpers and SOIR DE GARDE may be able to make a winning debut here. The Kapgarde gelding has a big pedigree being a half-brother to one of the stable's stars, in State Man. Gers Gigi ran well when third on her debut here three weeks ago and is entitled to improve from that experience. With the course form under her belt she should be a big player again. I Am Mimi was mid-division in a festival bumper at Punchestown earlier in the month having been a good second at the Kildare course on debut last November. He has shown enough to be a contender now.
SOIR DE GARDE is a half-brother to State Man and is fancied to make a successful start representing the same connections as that top-class hurdler. The Correction and Gers Gigi are the main dangers.
State Man's half-brother SOIR DE GARDE makes his debut. He may be good enough to beat Gers Gigi and I Am Mimi

11/1(+21%) | (5) Fullforward 11/1, 12/1, bit below form when eighth of 14 in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy) 22 days ago. Possibilities if bouncing back. Both wins came when sporting headgear; below par back on turf last time. |

6th (6) (14/1 -56%) Big Jimbo |
14/1(-56%) | (6) Big Jimbo 14/1, 16/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 48 days ago. Visor on for 1st time and entitled to come on for recent run. Won at Bath last August; no impact on return from break; visor replaces cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (33/1 -106%) Martin Spirit |
33/1(-106%) | (2) Martin Spirit 33/1, Poor handicap hurdler who was well held at Plumpton (15.9f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Modest on the Flat, not unduly punished when seventh on last Flat run. Maiden on the Flat but won over hurdles in March and this is his first turf handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (18/1 +45%) Iconic Mover |
18/1(+45%) | (9) Iconic Mover 18/1, Long-standing maiden who probably needed the run in first-time cheekpieces when fifth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (11.9f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Longstanding maiden; beaten a long way on reappearance and has a lot to find. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (10/1 -25%) Imperial Cult |
10/1(-25%) | (4) Imperial Cult 10/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable sixth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Kempton (12f) 20 days ago, albeit with no excuses the way the race was run. 14-race maiden; placed 5 times at 1m2f-2m in 2023; not shaping like an imminent winner. |

10th (10) (100/1 -150%) Blondelle |
100/1(-150%) | (10) Blondelle 100/1, Hooded for 1st time, fifth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft, 40/1) 24 days ago, having every chance. 0-10; not beaten too far on reappearance at Yarmouth but not an obvious winner of this. |

11th (11) (125/1 -150%) Eaux De Vie |
125/1(-150%) | (11) Eaux De Vie 125/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Visored for 1st time, last of 11 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good, 50/1) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on. 0-17; finished last on her two most recent starts and has little to recommend.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Basilette was supported in the market last time at Brighton and wasn't beaten far into third and, with first-time cheekpieces on now, he could go well under George Downing. Largo Bay might be better on the all-weather but could still go well in this field, but they could both struggle to get the better of LASER FOCUS. He won easily despite a troubled run at Windsor and a 5lb penalty may not stop him up in trip.
LASER FOCUS drew clear in a manner of one capable of following up under a penalty at Windsor last week, so there's no real urge to take him on. Basilette seems likely to go well again, while Largo Bay is better judged on his previous form having raced wider than ideal on his most recent outing.
The two to be interested in are Laser Focus and BASILETTE. The former is much respected but Basilette could be an each-way option.

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.
