The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

1st: 5/1 (4) LIKE A TIGER 2nd: 4/1 (6) SALT BAY 3rd: 5.5/1 (2) CIRCLE OF FIRE

Salt Bay sets the form standard having finished a good third in the Criterium International at Saint-Cloud last October and is respected, along with Victory Dance, who hasn't been seen since his third-placed finish in the Tattersall Stakes. Like A Tiger was an impressive winner over course and distance 16 days ago and is another who needs taking seriously, but preference is for CASTLE WAY. William Buick opts to ride the son of Almanzor over stablemate Victory Dance, which could give an indicator of his chance today, and he was impressive when scoring over this C&D on his final start as a juvenile.

Sure to be an informative race with Group winners coming out of it. CIRCLE OF FIRE didn't achieve as much as the likes of Salt Bay and Victory Dance as a juvenile but he couldn't be in better hands to progress as a 3-y-o and this trip is sure to help. He therefore just about receives the vote.

This field is packed with potential but SALT BAY has already been tried at Group 1 level and acquitted himself well, so he get the vote.

13:30 Goodwood Stakes (Class 2) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Predictions: 1st place - Adaay filly (8/1 (8) VITARLI) 2nd place - Havana Grey filly 3rd place - Intrinsic filly (40/1 (12) REVE D'ETOILES)

DUBAI HILLS shaped with promise on his racecourse debut when finishing second at Chantilly last month. It would be no surprise were Amy Murphy's charge to take a step forward today, and he is taken to score at the second time of asking. Eve Johnson Houghton continues to fire with her juveniles, so both Ethandun and Bated Breeze need considering, of which the former is preferred. Vitarli should be thereabouts, while others to note include Haatem and Relentless Warrior.

The market will no doubt prove informative with the majority unraced, but this can go to DUBAI HILLS, who ran to a fair level when runner-up on debut in France and, with improvement on the cards, Amy Murphy's colt is taken to go a place better. Ethandun is seemingly the choice of Charlie Bishop and he may emerge as the main threat, with last-time-out winner Vitarli and Beenham also fancied to figure.

The betting should be revealing but as things stand BEENHAM is fancied to leave her promising debut run well behind her.

1st: 2/1 (1) VICTORY FLAGSHIP 2nd: 3/1 (4) DALEY T 3rd: 2.75/1 (2) LADY PASCHA

VICTORY FLAGSHIP outran odds of 50/1 to finish second on his racecourse debut at Thirsk a month ago and he could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Lady Pascha was third at equally big odds in the same contest and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, ahead of Daley T and Whisky Mcgonagall.

Declan Carroll looks to hold a strong hand here and his lightly-raced Garswood gelding VICTORY FLAGSHIP is fancied to build on his promising Thirsk debut second and get off the mark at the chief expense of stablemate Lady Pascha, who also has very few miles on the clock. Newcastle runner-up Daley T and newcomer Rooska need considering too.

This doesn't look a strong contest and VICTORY FLAGSHIP, a good second at Thirsk first time out, is taken to get off the mark.

1st: 1.1/1 (5) NATIVE TRAIL 2nd: 3.5/1 (4) LIGHT INFANTRY 3rd: 3.5/1 (1) MUTASAABEQ

NATIVE TRAIL would be difficult to beat if running to the same level that saw him claim the Irish Guineas last year. The son of Oasis Dream, whose only defeat at this venue came when finishing a gallant second in the 2000 Guineas, can get back to winning ways on his first start post wind surgery at the main expense of Light Infantry, who is 1lb superior on official ratings. Checkandchallenge merits consideration judged on his fourth in the Queen Elizabeth II, while Mutasaabeq is not ruled out, though he may struggle to concede weight all round.

NATIVE TRAIL escapes a penalty for his Irish 2000 Guineas win last year and should be hard to beat on his return from wind surgery (goes well fresh). Light Infantry can give him most to do ahead of Joel Stakes winner Mutasaabeq.

This rescheduled bet365 Mile has attracted an exciting addition in NATIVE TRAIL, whose biggest threat is Light Infantry.

1st: 1.38/1 (7) TIME LOCK 2nd: 12/1 (4) LUISA CASATI 3rd: 8/1 (6) THANKS MONICA

This could go the way of TIME LOCK, who was narrowly denied at York on her latest outing last August and she must hold every chance of building on that. She beat the reopposing Voodoo Queen into fifth and, even though Roger Varian's charge has since contested a Group 3 over this trip at Newmarket, the daughter of Frankel is entitled to confirm that form. Luisa Casati was only beaten a neck in Listed company in France on her reappearance in March and is another to consider.

If the promising TIME LOCK can reproduce anything like the form she showed when a close second in the Galtres at York at the end of last summer then it's likely the others are playing for place money. Luisa Casati, Thanks Monica and Alaroos are a few who should be involved in the battle for minor honours.

Time Lock is greatly respected but LUISA CASATI ran well in France on her reappearance and looks a viable each-way alternative.

Predicted order of finish: 1. 1.25/1 (1) CODE PURPLE 2. 3.33/1 (4) GUNNERSIDE 3. 18/1 (3) MONHAMMER

CODE PURPLE arrives here on the back of two victories in recent months and a 2lb rise for the most recent of those wins at Redcar may not be enough to stop him from making it a hat-trick. Gunnerside is a player based on his Southwell success two starts ago, while Giselles Izzy and One Last Hug also make the shortlist.

CODE PURPLE looks the way to go on the back of his cosy Redcar success and can defy a 2 lb rise in the weights to complete a quick hat-trick. Gunnerside suffered a poor run when sixth at Southwell last time so should ensure Ben Haslam's C&D scorer doesn't get things all his own way though. The returning The Gay Blade appeals as the pick of the remainder for place purposes.

With his stable in fine form CODE PURPLE is taken to complete a hat-trick for Ben Haslam with Gunnerside his most likely danger.

1st - 2/1 (4) MAJESTIC PRIDE 2nd - 3.5/1 (5) SHOULDVEBEENARING 3rd - 6.5/1 (3) BENACRE

Majestic Pride ought to prove popular following his recent C&D success, but a chance is taken on ICONIC MOMENT. A rapid improver on the all-weather, he was perhaps unfortunate to lose his unbeaten record having been denied a clear run at Chelmsford last time out. The switch to turf shouldn't pose a problem to the son of Harry Angel and James Tate's charge can resume his progress. Shouldvebeenaring is fancied to chase them home ahead of Benacre.

The best is surely yet to come from the well-bred MAJESTIC PRIDE, who maintained his theme of race-by-race progress when scoring on return over C&D at the Craven meeting. He is evidently held in high regard (was entered in Saturday's 2000 Guineas at the time of that success) and can take another step up the ladder. Benacre's best days may well be ahead of him, too, and he is next on the list ahead of the reliable Shouldvebeenaring.

The vote goes to SHOULDVEBEENARING (nap) who has the best chance on ratings. The improving Majestic Pride is feared most.

1st: 4/1 (6) DREAM COMPOSER 2nd: 4/1 (3) WHENTHEDEALINSDONE 3rd: 7/1 (2) CLARENDON HOUSE

DREAM COMPOSER found the drop to 5f to his liking when appearing to win with something in hand at Newmarket last month, and James Evans' inmate could make light work of a 2lb rise in the handicap. Prop Forward returned to winning ways when making all over 6f last time at Kempton and the five-year-old shouldn't be underestimated now switched to the turf off 4lb higher. Clarendon House also makes some appeal.

Plenty in with a shout, including the returning CLARENDON HOUSE. He ran a blinder on his return when runner-up in this race 12 months ago and, having ended the campaign with a solid second at Beverley, he can be expected to make a bold bid back from 7 months off. The Low-mileage, progressive Prop Forward is an obvious threat, ahead of the thriving Reigning Profit and Dream Composer.

Came From The Dark ran well on his reappearance but WHENTHEDEALINSDONE gets the nod on his return to action.

14:45 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the information provided, 2.75/1 (5) KISS MY FACE seems to be the strongest contender for finishing in the top 3 as it has been in fine form with recent wins. 7.5/1 (3) AEGIS POWER and 1.1/1 (1) THERMOSCOPE could also have a chance based on their previous performances and weight. Therefore, the predicted order of finish would be 2.75/1 (5) KISS MY FACE, 7.5/1 (3) AEGIS POWER, and 1.1/1 (1) THERMOSCOPE.

KISS MY FACE disappointed when last of five at Chelmsford on his most recent outing, but the son of Nathaniel can be given another chance having racked up a three-timer before that defeat. Zephlyn was second to the selection a couple of starts ago and cannot be discounted as a result. Aegis Power makes his debut for Tim Easterby here and is capable of going well, despite remaining a maiden.

THERMOSCOPE made an immediate impact for Brian Ellison when going in at Newcastle and this lightly-raced 5-y-o can make a winning debut for Keith Dalgleish now with very few miles still on the clock. Aegis Power is still a maiden but weighted to go well on his seasonal return and next on the list ahead of in-form Kiss My Face.

It could pay to go with THERMOSCOPE on his stable debut despite his absence since October. Aegis Power looks his main danger.

1st: 3.5/1 (6) FINAL WATCH 2nd: 7.5/1 (5) PERSUASION 3rd: 3.33/1 (4) THE GATEKEEPER

THE GATEKEEPER finished a fair fourth over this trip at Musselburgh and a 1lb lower mark can see him build on that. He is now rated 6lb above his last winning all-weather mark but remains relatively unexposed and could have a big say in proceedings. Final Watch made a promising return to action, when also finishing fourth, over C&D last month and is feared most. Darkness completes the shortlist dropping in trip from his latest outing.

A good winner from this mark at Ascot in September, FINAL WATCH hasn't been seen to best effect all 3 starts since, incluidng when finishing a creditable fourth on return over C&D 17 days ago. He could be worth chancing to build on that, with The Gatekeeper and Accidental Agent others to consider. Darkness isn't out of things either in a refitted visor.

Most of the runners have possibilities in this open-looking race. Slight preference is for FINAL WATCH, ahead of Star Of Orion.

1st: 4.5/1 (4) CAPOTE'S DREAM, 2nd: 3.33/1 (2) SPANISH STAR, 3rd: 5/1 (5) THE LAMPLIGHTER.

Shobiz (winner) renews rivalry with The Lamplighter (second) from this race last year, when the latter was held by a nose, but he does have a 2lb pull in the weights this time around and that could help him reverse that form. However, they may only be playing for the places as CAPOTE'S DREAM showed much improved form last time on his return to action. The son of Dream Ahead was only beaten just under three lengths into third at Windsor behind a subsequent winner and is likely to go very close off the same mark.

This looks very open with THE LAMPLIGHTER selected on account of the fact that he is a triple C&D winner with a good record fresh. Capote's Dream made a positive start to the campaign at Windsor and is second choice, ahead of Ernie's Valentine.

These conditions bring out the best in SPANISH STAR (nap) and he can prove too strong for Sergeant Tibbs and Marshal Dan.

15:20 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Prediction: 3.33/1 (3) RIVERSWAY is likely to do well based on her recent form and previous successes. She could finish in 1st place. 4/1 (5) LADY LADE could come in 2nd place, as she has shown improvement in her last two runs and is likely to improve further after her recent outing. 2.5/1 (6) PRIMO'S COMET has a chance of finishing in 3rd place based on his fitness edge and previous performance at the course.

Modular Magic has been kept busy on the all-weather of late and the six-year-old could have a say in proceedings back over turf, but RIVERSWAY secured a comfortable success over this trip at Southwell when last seen in September. She is fancied to make a winning return to action off 5lb higher, while Primo's Comet finished a far from disgraced third over C&D last month and may give the selection plenty to think about.

PRIMO'S COMET boasts a very good record here and, having performed with credit in a more competitive C&D handicap than this last month, he makes plenty of appeal off the same mark. If able to pick up where she left off last season, Riversway will be a big threat, while both Lady Lade and Mr Beaufort are capable of taking a hand in the finish.

The 8yo PRIMO'S COMET, who was a good third here last time, can make it seven wins over C&D by beating Riversway and Lady Lade.

Hurricane Lane made a disappointing return to action when failing to get involved at Newbury last month and he will need to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces if he is to land this. Therefore, preference is for WEST WIND BLOWS, who was last seen finishing a decent third in a Group 2 at Longchamp in October. He has run well fresh in the past and can make a winning return to action here. Global Storm has proven to be capable of better than his latest showing and is another worthy of consideration.

Tactics could have a significant impact on this small-field contest and one who may prove best equipped for such a scenario is WEST WIND BLOWS. Simon & Ed Crisford's 4-y-o can make a winning return at the expense of Hurricane Lane, who turned in a lacklustre effort after 10 months off at Newbury just under a fortnight ago and hopes are pinned on first-time headgear sparking a revival. Global Storm can fill out third spot.

Hurricane Lane made a disconcerting reappearance. With a stamina query for West Wind Blows, the vote goes to GLOBAL STORM.

1st: 0.91/1 (4) KOLSAI 2nd: 2.75/1 (3) CICERO'S GIFT 3rd: 5/1 (1) ANCESTRAL LAND

KOLSAI made a giant leap from his juvenile efforts when runner-up to a potentially smart type in the Feilden at Newmarket's Craven meeting. The drop back a furlong in trip appears likely to suit and the son of Oasis Dream, who comes from an excellent family, is expected to be too strong for the opposition. Ancestral Land showed plenty of freshness when fourth in the Craven and is open to improvement, while the unbeaten Cicero's Gift produced a smart performance at Wolverhampton under a penalty and may prove to be the main threat.

Caught close home in a 9f listed race on return at Newmarket, KOLSAI is likely to benefit from dropping back in trip here and, with further improvement on the cards from this son of Oasis Dream, he will prove hard to beat. The unbeaten Cicero's Gift, like Kolsai, holds some fancy entries and he is feared most. Ancestral Land is best of the rest.

Kolsai is the one to beat back at 1m but CICERO'S GIFT is unbeaten despite his evident inexperience. He has more to come.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will do well in the race. However, some horses that have shown promise in recent races include 2.5/1 (4) CARLOS FELIX, 8/1 (6) SIMPLE STAR, 4.5/1 (3) LEDNIKOV, 5.5/1 (8) SMART LASS, and 18/1 (5) GREAT COLACI. As for the top three finishers, it is impossible to determine without more information on the other horses in the race and their recent form.

Only narrowly denied over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last month, CARLOS FELIX must enter calculations on his return to turf and he is entitled to be in the mix, even though he is now rated 3lb higher for the aforementioned run. Lednikov finished a fair fourth, also over 1m4f, on his latest outing and is feared most, while Smart Lass is another to bear in mind.

CARLOS FELIX often gives himself a bit to do out of the stalls but he's back in good order and, given the mark he's dropped to these days, he will take some stopping. Billy Bathgate is interesting down in trip, with Lednikov another to consider.

Solid contender LEDNIKOV (nap) is taken to follow up last year's success in this contest. Carlos Felix is feared most.

16:10 Newmarket Maiden (Class 2) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well as there are several interesting newcomers and potential contenders. However, some horses that may be worth considering are: 1. 4/1 (2) INDISPENSABLE - From the first crop of Ten Sovereigns and with notable connections, this filly makes plenty of appeal on paper. 2. 7/1 (4) MIDNIGHT AFFAIR - With an attractive breeding, a respected owner who won this race last year, and being a sister to a smart winner, this newcomer is worth keeping an eye on. 3. 1.63/1 (9) SOPRANO - With good hands behind her, a strong pedigree, and being closely related to a very smart winner, this filly is highly respected on debut. Based on these factors, the predicted order of finish for the race could potentially be: 1. 1.63/1 (9) SOPRANO 2. 4/1 (2) INDISPENSABLE 3. 7/1 (4) MIDNIGHT AFFAIR

Fly Pass made a promising start to her racing career when finishing a decent third at Beverley over this trip last month and there is likely more in her locker, but INDISPENSABLE boasts an appealing pedigree and could be worth siding with here. Her dam is an unraced sister to the useful Emmaus, who was Grade 2-placed at Woodbine during his career, and she is fancied to make a winning racecourse debut. Sayidh Kingman is another to bear in mind for powerful connections.

A tricky maiden, with all bar one newcomers, and the market should offer additional clues. SOPRANO's sales price more than doubled when sent through the ring as a yearling, and she makes most appeal on paper. Sayidh Kingman is another likely sort, with Fly Pass respected as the only runner with previous experience. Indispensable is another debutante worth considering.

Several of the newcomers are interesting, most notably MIDNIGHT AFFAIR. Second choice is Soprano.

1. 3/1 (1) GARRICK PAINTER 2. 8/1 (10) LUNARSCAPE 3. 14/1 (2) RAINTOWN

A case can be made for plenty of these but a chance is taken on MUDSKIPPER, who did not appear to get home over 1m2f at Nottingham last time. The drop in trip should help and arguably his best piece form came when filling second place over this course and distance last September. Garrick Painter is an obvious threat following his win at Kempton in February, while Lunarscape and Island Star are others with strong form claims.

Provided he handles conditions on this turf debut, GARRICK PAINTER may well be the answer. He did the job well at Kempton when last seen in February and should have more to offer now handicapping off what appears to be a pretty reasonable opening mark. Man of Eden looks dangerous back at this trip and he is second choice, albeit only marginally as cases can also be readily made for the likes of Lunarscape, Island Star and Raintown (in that order of preference).

Lunarscape ran well on her handicap debut but MUDSKIPPER travelled well for a long way on his return and can strip fitter today.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, 1.38/1 (4) PURPLE MARTINI seems to be the strongest contender as they have a win on reappearance and their subsequent effort suggests they can handle the longer trip. For 2nd place, 3/1 (1) GONE seems like a good choice as they have been successful in two of their last three attempts over 7f and have narrowly resumed winning ways after a break. For 3rd place, 10/1 (5) CAPOFAN could be a possible contender, despite suffering a heavy defeat last week, as they are well-treated on their best efforts and will have cheekpieces on for the first time.

PURPLE MARTINI shaped as though a return to further would suit having kept on for fourth at Ripon over a furlong shorter 15 days ago. She remains capable of better and shades the vote over Gone, who has been steadily progressive in recent starts. Capofan has tumbled in the ratings, having been allocated an opening mark of 64, and completes the shortlist.

PURPLE MARTINI shaped as if this step back up to 7f would suit when fourth at Ripon just over a fortnight ago, so Ben Haslam's charge is fancied to regain the winning thread at the expense of B Associates, who wasn't seen to best effect on return at Newcastle earlier this week. Gone completes the shortlist.

1st: 3/1 (7) DESERT HAVEN 2nd: 2.75/1 (9) FIRST GENTLEMAN 3rd: 8.5/1 (12) TWO STARS

FIRST GENTLEMAN ran well on debut. A half-brother to a Group 3 winner, he has a length to find with Desert Haven on Curragh form but was briefly checked close home. The pair reoppose on drier ground and while Desert Haven is dependable and ground-versatile, the lightly-raced selection is open to more progression and could be better suited by good ground. Roaming Star was fourth in that Curragh race while Two Stars raced green, having missed the break, on debut over course and distance in a lesser maiden last month. Capital Guarantee is held by Desert Haven on Naas form while Awesome Spirit ran well over a mile at Dundalk last November but drops back markedly in distance, on reappearance. Emorcee was well held by a capable winner at Dundalk and drops back in distance.

FIRST GENTLEMAN produced a promising first effort when third in a Curragh maiden over this trip 3 weeks ago and, open to improvement for his good yard, he's fancied to build on that and make a bold bid to make it second time lucky. Desert Haven, who was narrowly in front of the selection latest, boasts plenty of experience and is a big threat. Capital Guarantee, Roaming Star and Las Cuatro are others fancied to be thereabouts.

Desert Haven was only narrowly denied again last time but FIRST GENTLEMAN wasn't far behind him and the latter has more upside

INFINITE COSMOS was only narrowly denied by a useful rival when a short-head second on debut at Doncaster last October and the daughter of Sea The Stars could be hard to beat with the benefit of that experience. Sahara Mist has a similar profile to the selection and could well prove to be the main danger. Therapist made the frame in all three starts as a juvenile and is the clear pick of the remainder.

INFINITE COSMOS shaped with abundant promise when runner-up behind one who has subsequently placed at Group level in a Doncaster maiden back in October, finishing strongly. Open to significant improvement, she can take this on her way to better things. Sahara Mist is another who displayed plenty of ability on her respective debut at Newcastle recently and can also take a sizeable step forward. Therapist can emerge best of the remainder.

Easily the most likely outcome on racecourse evidence is that INFINITE COSMOS will go one better than she did at Doncaster last October.

FIER JAGUEN was unable to justify strong support in the market when unseating his rider early on in the Randox Foxhunters' Open Hunters' Chase at the Aintree Festival last month, but he should appreciate this return to regulation fences and had previously looked very impressive in his point-to-point triumphs. Caryto Des Brosses was somewhat underwhelming when fifth in a similar contest at Newbury in March but he's feared most if anywhere near his best, with Envious Editor rating the pick of the remainder.

A chance is taken on last year's runner-up ENVIOUS EDITOR bouncing back to form. Fier Jaguen is a possible big threat but his tendency to jump to his right is a concern. Caryto des Brosses also has leading form claims but mainly at 3m+ so it remains to be seen whether he's fully effective over this much shorter distance.

Provided FIER JAGUEN avoids going off too fast this progressive 8yo could be the answer. Envious Editor is next best.

A drop in trip may not be enough to stop CHAMPAGNE CITY following up a facile success over 2m 2f at Pontefract last month. The gelded son of Tobougg has gone up 5lb for that success, but Joe Leavy knocks 7lb off his back in this and he can have a big say in proceedings with that in mind. Justus bolted up at Doncaster most recently and is feared under a 5lb penalty, while Candy Shack completes the shortlist in a first-time tongue-tie.

CRESCENT LAKE finished with running left trying to follow up his Chelmsford win at Lingfield 17 days ago, confirming he's back in top form. There's no reason why he won't continue the good work back on turf so he's marginally preferred in favour of Justus, who seems sure to go well under a penalty on the back of a commanding success at Doncaster last week. Grandmaster Flash completes the shortlist.

A wide-margin winner at Doncaster last week, JUSTUS is fancied to defy a penalty at the main expense of Candy Shack.

17:00 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to determine with certainty which horses will finish in the top three. However, the following horses seem to have potential: 1. 2.25/1 (2) FANZONE - With a close second at Bath last month and a win at this venue last spring, 2.25/1 (2) FANZONE is a strong contender and

It's been a while since drinks for HOW BIZARRE, but Liam Bailey's charge has been in good form on the all-weather recently and he might be ready to take advantage of a sliding handicap mark. Stablemate Fanzone features prominently in calculations having been narrowly denied at Bath last month, along with Going Underground, who finished a good second over C&D last time out.

FANZONE gained his sole success here and might be capable of notching another if reproducing anything like the form he showed when narrowly denied in a competitive race at Bath on Good Friday. Going Underground was runner-up over C&D last time and may provide chief threat ahead of the selection's stablemate How Bizarre.

On current form the leading contenders are FANZONE, Going Underground and How Bizarre in that order of preference.

17:05 Downpatrick Maiden Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Based on the summary, 4/1 (11) OTTIZZINI and 6.5/1 (3) BOB CIGAR both have obvious claims and are promising individuals, so they are likely to do well in the race. 14/1 (2) BALLYQUIN BAY and 5/1 (4) DANADA could also be contenders, as they have shown fair performances in their past races and have the potential to improve. Therefore, the horses that will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places could be 4/1 (11) OTTIZZINI, 6.5/1 (3) BOB CIGAR, and 14/1 (2) BALLYQUIN BAY.

DANADA made a promising debut at Clonmel back in January and with natural improvement he may be able to strike now. The Mahler gelding stayed on nicely when third to Cillians Charm and stepping up in trip now looks like he should be a big help. The Ballyline Man was beaten favourite in a Cork bumper on his first outing for Willie Mullins last month, finishing a moderate enough fourth. Going jumping now could bring improvement though from the Masterofthehorse gelding and he has to be respected. Ottizzini ran well when third over course and distance last month and is another for the shortlist.

The vote goes to DANADA, who made a promising start to his career when third at Clonmel in January and this step up in trip can help unlock improvement. Ottizzini doesn't look especially progressive but she's a key player nonetheless and is feared most ahead of the Willie Mullins-trained hurdling debutant The Ballyline Man. Bob Cigar looks the pick of the Gordon Elliott duo and also enters calculations.

Ottizzini sets the standard but could be vulnerable to an improver such as DANADA, who caught the eye at Clonmel

1st: 3/1 (11) MAUIEWOWIE 2nd: 11/1 (8) FIX YOU 3rd: 3.33/1 (2) TREASURE TROVE

TREASURE TROVE was twice narrowly beaten by Mauiewowie last year and while 3lb worse off, the pair today meet over a fractionally longer distance. The selection has a length and a quarter and a short-head (racing from level weights) to find on two previous meetings with this race being 110 yards further than Mauiewowie has raced over, whereas Treasure Trove has already won a 6f Group 3 race. Lady Tilbury is a course and distance winner but is held by the selection and Mauiewowie on previous form. Ocean Jewel was Listed-runner-up last year and has place claims, reverting back fractionally in distance. Basil Martini was a Group 3 winner last year but was well beaten at the Breeders Cup in November and reappears over an inadequate distance. UK raider Fix You steps up from a 77-rated handicap win while recent debut winner Amazon Lady has a tough task but can improve.

MAUIEWOWIE ended 2022 on the up with a listed success at the Curragh and Ger Lyons' filly is fancied to return in style here at the chief expense of Fairyhouse listed runner-up Ocean Jewel, who also looks to have better days ahead of her this term. Alice Haynes' challenger Fix You and Treasure Trove complete the shortlist.

Some nice prospects in here, most notably MAUIEWOWIE who shades the vote after a Listed win at the back end of her 2yo campaign

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Based on the summary, the horses that have the best chance of finishing in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place are: 1. 18/1 (7) POWER OF DARKNESS 2. 5/1 (3) SPINAROUND 3. 10/1 (6) TAHITIAN PRINCE These horses have shown consistency in their form and are still well treated by the handicapper. While some other horses may improve in this race, these three seem to have the strongest chances.

LONGLAI accounted for Spinaround by a neck when the pair met at Kempton last month and Michael Wigham's gelding can confirm that form, despite a 1lb swing in the weights. Tahitian Prince was not disgraced on his return to action recently and is entitled to improve for that outing. Azano may not be the force of old but he cannot be ruled out off his current mark.

SPINAROUND is on an attractive mark and has made a positive start for his current yard, so he gets the nod ahead of Longlai, who narrowly beat him Kempton last time. Arthur's Realm looks the pick of the remainder, although there's several others for whom a case can be made.

This looks tricky, including with rain forecast. As it stands, preference is for last month's Kempton one-two LONGLAI and Spinaround

17:25 Cheltenham Hunter Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in the top three. However, 3/1 (5) LIFT ME UP, All is True, and 3.5/1 (11) THESHODDYTRADESMAN seem to have strong performances in recent points races and may have a good chance of finishing well in the upcoming hunter chase. It is also worth keeping an eye on 10/1 (3) CAMDONIAN and 22/1 (2) BONAMARGY as they are both switching to hunters and may surprise the field.

ALL IS TRUE completed a hat-trick when a wide-margin winner in a point-to-point at Garthorpe in March and the six-year-old shades the vote in an open contest. Camdonian has seemingly found a new lease of life since leaving Dan Skelton, with three wins between the flags to his name, and he can't be discounted on this return to Rules. Lift Me Up and Theshoddytradesman also arrive in fine form and complete the shortlist.

LIFT ME UP has a good strike rate in points and made a successful Rules debut in a Newbury hunter in March so, with more to come, he looks the solid option. All Is True has won his last 3 outings in points with plenty to spare, so he looks the main threat ahead of Theshoddytradesman, although the market will be informative.

The vote goes to LIFT ME UP, who had a bit about him in points and he accounted for respected opposition last time at Newbury.

1st place: 6/1 (3) IDEAL DREAM 2nd place: 7/1 (2) FIRE EYES 3rd place: 6/1 (5) CARACRISTI

Ideal Dream came home in front last time at a big price over 1m4f here and was put up 5lb in the weights, but she drops in distance and DESERT MIRACLE is preferred. The son of Postponed was staying on well at the finish over a mile at Southwell last time and has been dropped 1lb in the weights for that effort. With possible improvement coming from the step up in trip, he is fancied to record his first career success. Marcello Si is another to watch out for.

After breaking on terms for once, IDEAL DREAM left her previous efforts behind when successful here 22 days ago and she can score again now that she's up and running. The main danger could be Desert Miracle as he goes up in trip, while Caracristi soon got back on track returned to the all-weather last time.

1st: 3.5/1 (1) MIGHTY JEREMY 2nd: 4/1 (7) CLEAR THE CLOUDS 3rd: 6/1 (6) KING FERDINAND

JENNY FLEX is interesting here on her handicap debut. The well-bred daughter of Walk In The Park shaped with promise in maiden hurdles over the winter and looks on an attractive mark now. Danny Gilligan takes a valuable 7lb off her back to leave the half-sister to Scarlet And Dove on a nice racing weight. Mighty Jeremy heads the weights after two recent wins and is probably the one to beat. Connections changed tactics completely last time at Tramore when he made all and if he does something similar here around another undulating track he could be hard to peg back. King Ferdinand just failed by a head to peg back Elsannah at Cork last time and the Milan gelding is another that has to be considered.

MIGHTY JEREMY is suddenly improving at a rate of knots and the hat-trick looks a distinct possibility. Jenny Flex and Sheephaven Flyer represent good yards and both are open to progress now handicapping.

A few with chances. KELLY'S BIRR hinted at winning potential for her previous yard and could be interesting now with Gordon Elliott.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Based on the summary, 5.5/1 (4) ZONA VERDE and 20/1 (2) ASEAN are expected to do well. The third spot is harder to predict, but 25/1 (7) JUNGLE DANCE and 40/1 (10) NIKKI SWANGO are possibilities.

BATED MOON is speedily bred, with Declan McDonogh doing a light enough weight. By a sprint stallion, she cost just 14,000 euros as a yearling but her half-sister was a five furlongs juvenile winner and is out of a winning dam. Colin Keane is notable on Launch, which was registered to have been owned by Amo Racing until May 1. She was a 50,000 dollars yearling purchase, is out of an American stakes-placed dam and is the first Irish or UK runner from a speedy stallion. Nemonte is out of a Listed-placed dam and by a promising first-season sire, so could be capable. Givemethebeatboys was an 11,000 euro yearling and is out of a winning half-sister to Group 3 winning stayer Lismore. Zona Verda, Jungle Dance and One Cool Cookie each has ability but are vulnerable to capable newcomers. Seti is out of an unplaced half-sister to a Group 3 winner while Nikki Swango's pedigree contains European winners.

Little form to go on so the market should reveal plenty in this juvenile maiden. BATED MOON appeals on paper and is in excellent hands so Joseph O'Brien's Bated Breath filly is taken to go in at the first time of asking. Navan runner-up Zona Verde appeals most of those with racecourse experience and is next on the list ahead of another O'Brien newcomer in the shape of Nemonte.

It was an encouraging start to ZONA VERDE's career when chasing home a Ballydoyle colt at Navan last month and she can progress

1st - 2/1 (6) MARCLE RIDGE 2nd - 3.5/1 (8) TRIO FOR RIO 3rd - 6/1 (7) MORATORIUM

TRIO FOR RIO has won the last two renewals of this contest and recent efforts between the flags suggest that the veteran may be capable of going in once more. Marcle Ridge has failed to justify favouritism on his last two appearances in this sphere, but Lucy Smith's gelding is capable on his day and he isn't taken lightly, while Fairly Famous recorded a fourth consecutive success in point-to-points at High Easter recently and he also warrants consideration.

MARCLE RIDGE can boast a superb record in points and, as a winner of this in 2019, a bold bid seems assured. Trio For Rio landed the 2021 and 2022 renewals of this and he won't go down without a fight, with Moratorium considered for all he does need to bounce back.

Trio For Rio is bidding for a hat-trick in this race but he may come up short should MARCLE RIDGE put his best foot forward.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary, but 1.2/1 (5) FLYING CIRCUS and 8/1 (2) MOOGIE seem to have the most potential. Therefore, they may finish in 1st and 2nd place, while 4.5/1 (6) SILK BIRD could finish in 3rd. However, as with any horse race, anything can happen, so it's impossible to guarantee these predictions.

FLYING CIRCUS shaped well on debut when beaten just under five lengths into third over a mile at Doncaster in October, and two subsequent winners have come out of that race. With the likelihood of much more to come and the step up in trip a possible source of improvement, she could prove very difficult to beat. Charli Sands makes some appeal on her debut for the in-form Ed Bethell yard, as a daughter of Footstepsinthesand. Of the remainder, Ajyad could take a step forward.

FLYING CIRCUS made a promising debut when third at Doncaster on her only start at 2 yrs and she sets the standard in this contest. Entered in the Irish Oaks, the daughter of Cracksman can get off the mark upped in trip, with Ajyad the one who can give her most to think about. Silk Bird is the pick of the remainder.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary alone. However, some horses to consider for the top three positions based on their recent performances and potential are: 4.5/1 (5) ARTISTE D'AINAY, 11/1 (3) STELLIUM, and 1.75/1 (13) RING O ROSES. It is important to note that horse racing is unpredictable, and other factors such as weather and track conditions, jockey performance, and unforeseen circumstances can also impact the outcome of the race.

RING O ROSES can strike here after a nice run on her debut at Navan back in February. The Flemensfirth mare kept on nicely when third to easy winner Ho My Lord then and this looks an easier task now. She had Ossifer Hops ten lengths behind in fourth that day and should be able to confirm placings. That rival ran well last time out when chasing home Jay Jay Zee in Ballinrobe. Artiste D'ainay has been knocking on the door across the water and has to be on the shortlist. It will be interesting to see how he fares now back on home soil.

RING O ROSES offered plenty to work on when third starting out at Navan in February and with the prospect of more to come, she's more than capable of winning a maiden. Ossifer Hops and Artiste D'ainay look the main threats.

Henry De Bromhead's RING OR ROSES (nap) ran a race full of promise at Navan and she's bred to go on to better things.

The two reserves, 10/1 (24) VERHOYEN and 16/1 (23) MIGHT AND MERCY, have an outside chance of placing, but it is uncertain if they will get a run.

The lightly-raced TOSEN WISH is interesting on handicap debut, albeit in a wide-open race. He returned following a 469-day absence when defeating race-fit capable handicappers in a first-time tongue-tie at Dundalk and can continue progressing on today's suitably sound surface. Group 3 winner Markaz Paname carries top weight and won from a 5lb lower rating in 2022. Cheers Again was well enough held at Limerick but is a progressive four-year-old who seems ground-versatile and has form over course and distance. Similarly progressive All Lies Ahead has good recent handicap form (beating Loingseoir last month) and is suited by this distance but would prefer easy ground. Miss Mirabell was well held in March's Lincoln and runs over this distance for the first time but is ground-versatile. Stablemate Final Voyage won the valuable Vase Mile at Lingfield last month but is a specialist all-weather performer who would prefer a mile. Blairmayne's best form is at 6f.

ALL LIES AHEAD went down only to a very progressive filly at Gowran last time and can show she's still ahead of the handicapper. Tosen Wish is another lightly-raced type who is likely capable of even better and is feared most. Cheers Again, last year's runner-up Blairmayne and the reappearing Ice Cold In Alex are a few of may others who could go well in this very competitive Premier Handicap.

As ever, Ado McGuinness throws the kitchen sink at a valuable handicap and he might have the answer in NO MORE PORTER

1st - 0.67/1 (4) PREMIER MAGIC 2nd - 22/1 (7) TRAPPIST MONK 3rd - 9/1 (1) DANDY DAN

PREMIER MAGIC struck in the Hunters' Chase at the Festival here in March, when sporting first-time cheekpieces, and now up against this weaker opposition, he is very difficult to oppose. The main threat looks to be Rebel Dawn Rising, who was four lengths clear when unseating at the last at Fakenham on his latest outing and, with a clear round of jumping this time, he could have a say. Encounter A Giant is another to note.

If PREMIER MAGIC is in anything like the same form as when successful at the Festival in March he'll be very hard to beat. Dandy Dan was pulled up at the Festival but he won this race last year and can bounce back and provide the chief threat ahead of Rebel Dawn Rising, who would have won at Fakenham recently but for unseating at the last.

There was no fluke about PREMIER MAGIC's heroics here at the Festival and he's clearly in pole position to follow up.

Based on the summary, the horses that are likely to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are: 1st - 1.25/1 (3) PAGE THREE: Showed promise in her debut and has the potential to progress and win. 2nd - 2.25/1 (8) HEDONISTA: Ran to a fair level in her debut and is expected to do better with more experience. 3rd - 3/1 (6) CAPTAIN POTTER: Despite a disappointing performance in his last race, he has shown potential in his debut and could bounce back.

Hedonista was only beaten half a length on her debut at Kempton over 1m3f, and the three-year-old filly is likely to have learned a lot from that experience. However, she could be second best to the Keith Dalgleish-trained PAGE THREE, who had an extremely promising first start behind Sapphire Seas and, with the extra furlong possibly in her favour, she is the one to be with. Captain Potter completes the shortlist.

PAGE THREE ran to a fairly useful level when third at Kempton on her belated debut last month, finding only a pair of 3-y-os representing leading connections too strong, so she can build on that effort to open her account at the second time of asking. Hedonista also shaped promisingly on her first start and is feared most, ahead of Captain Potter.

Having shaped with promise on her Polytrack debut, PAGE THREE is fancied to get off the mark. Hedonista rates the main danger.

1st: 2/1 (7) THEONEWEDREAMOF 2nd: 7.5/1 (1) RETURN TO BASE 3rd: 10/1 (9) MATER MATUTA

A competitive looking contest and THEONEWEDREAMOF is fancied to continue her recent good form. The French Navy filly won on the Flat at Bellewstown last time and still looks on a nice mark back over timber. She had won at Punchestown in late January before finishing a staying on fourth at Thurles the following month. Stepping up slightly in trip now over hurdles should suit. Return To Base ran a solid race to finish third here last month. She is respected but may appreciate a bit further. Will You Win is another last time out winner in the field. She won a maiden hurdle in Clonmel last month and was pulling away late on over two-and-a-half miles. She had also been third over a similar trip here last October and that course experience is an asset.

Though she failed to make much of an impact at Fairyhouse last time, SPLASHING OUT appeared to be on the right track prior to that and she could be the answer if responding well to the first-time cheekpieces. Theonewedreamof scored on the Flat last month and, having also performed well on her latest start in this sphere, she looks dangerous. She's Tobias is third choice, while Cool Croi may well leave her previous hurdles efforts behind now pitched into a handicap.

Cases can be made for a few of these but top of the list is SPLASHING OUT, who should be winning races off her current mark.

MACADAM'S ROCK's two wins have been on the all-weather but reverts to turf having found his niche at this distance. He has top weight but sneaks in rated 65, having run well from 66 on recent runs and has placed form on good ground. Cherry Bloom is 9lb better off with Blue Wood for a nose all-weather defeat last month. Initially rated 77, she has strong claims over a suitable distance and likes good ground. Blue Wood is respected but does face a tougher assignment without Alan Persse's 7lb claim on this occasion.

MACADAM'S ROCK arrives on the back of a string of consistent efforts on all-weather in recent months, running well to finish third in a stronger race over this trip 6 weeks ago and he looks sure to go well again back on turf in his present groove. The Cola Brasil, Blue Wood and Cherry Bloom head up the dangers.

It's probably worth upgrading POET'S PRIDE's latest effort at Dundalk over 5f and he looks well treated back up in trip

Prediction: 1/1 (3) HIGHWAY JEWEL is the one to beat with her recent strong performances in the hunter chase events and her previous win in this race. 10/1 (4) KALABALOO, with her past success in this race and impressive record in points, may finish second or third. 3.5/1 (1) SINE NOMINE and 3.5/1 (2) SINGAPORE SAGA could also be in the mix for a place. 28/1 (5) MISS SEAGREEN and 50/1 (6) TANGOED are less likely to do well based on their recent form.

HIGHWAY JEWEL has been fine fettle in the point-to-point field, with his latest effort coming when bolting up by 20 lengths at Lydstep, and with winning course-and-distance form to his name from 2021, he could be the one to beat for the Gibbs family. Another to consider is Singapore Saga, who failed to justify favouritism at Exeter last month when behind Shantou Flyer but he could get in contention as the next top-rated in the field. Sine Nomine bolted up in this sphere at Stratford last time and isn't ruled out either.

A winner at this meeting 2 years ago, HIGHWAY JEWEL boasts an enviable record in points, running out a facile winner on her latest outing 25 days ago and, remaining open to further progress in this sphere, she looks the one to beat again. Singapore Saga may emerge as the chief threat, with another low-mileage improver, Sine Nomine, also expected to be in the mix.

If as good as she was when winning this two years ago then HIGHWAY JEWEL could well go in again.

Based on the summary, the horses that are likely to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place are 25/1 (9) ELIGIBLE, 7/1 (7) STREAK LIGHTNING, and 7/1 (5) SWISS ACE. 25/1 (9) ELIGIBLE has shown good form in previous races and is expected to do well in a bigger field. 7/1 (7) STREAK LIGHTNING is a three-time course winner and has been performing well recently, despite being denied a run in his last race. 7/1 (5) SWISS ACE, a previous winner of this race, has the advantage of being a dual C&D winner and could do better now that he's back round here.

ALL THE KING'S MEN found himself too far back off a sedate gallop when finishing third at Kempton last month and, with Rainbow Fire (second) subsequently winning a nice pot at Haydock, a similar performance on the class drop may suffice. Ron O is only 3lb higher than his last success over C&D in early April and he's feared most, while Eligible lost little in defeat when runner-up to a progressive rival at Wolverhampton.

Having previously been trained in France, ALL THE KING'S MEN made an impressive stable debut when winning at Lingfield in January, but he was then absent for 11 weeks before finishing third at Kempton last month. With his latest run behind him, he can resume his progress and is taken to see off the challenge of Eligible and Streak Lightning.

This can go to ALL THE KING'S MEN, who'll be happier into tonight's bigger field. Last year's winner Swiss Ace is second choice.

3.5/1 (8) LIKABLE CHANCER is expected to do well based on recent form and a career-best win in a handicap chase at Tramore. 8/1 (2) SHANTOU SISU, the C&D winner, is also in the mix after a respectable sixth-place finish in a handicap chase at Tramore. 9/1 (7) FINNIANS ROW looks competitive on form despite remaining a maiden after 20 NH runs. The prediction for the top three finishes is as follows: 1. 3.5/1 (8) LIKABLE CHANCER 2. 8/1 (2) SHANTOU SISU 3. 9/1 (7) FINNIANS ROW

This looks like a weak contest and LIKABLE CHANCER may be able to follow up on his shock win at Tramore. The Gold Well gelding enjoyed bowling along in front then and young Danny Gilligan got a good tune out of him. A 7lb rise for that 33/1 win doesn't look harsh if he can produce a similar effort. Shantou Sisu was a moderate sixth behind the selection last time but is a previous course and distance winner and having slipped a few pounds he is on a competitive mark. Robin De Roost is another previous course and distance winner who may get a bit closer now back at this track.

LIKABLE CHANCER finally opened his account at Tramore recently and, still on a feasible mark despite going up 7 lb for that, he is taken to strike again. Shantou Sisu and Finnians Row, sixth and seventh respectively behind the selection at Tramore, can fill the places. That said, if point/hurdles winner Winnie Woodnutt makes the cut she will certainly be of interest.

Plenty of question marks but a chance is taken on AGIRLCALLEDCHLOE, whose run here last month looks solid form

Based on the summary, the horses that may do well and potentially finish in the top 3 are 7.5/1 (2) ANY DREAM WILL DO, 6.5/1 (14) MERE ACCOUNTANT, and 8.5/1 (8) SECRET SPY. 7.5/1 (2) ANY DREAM WILL DO has had a recent win and is in good form, 6.5/1 (14) MERE ACCOUNTANT has won a maiden race and could be well-in for their handicap debut, and 8.5/1 (8) SECRET SPY has shown promise in their two maiden runs and could improve in their handicap debut. However, as there are also a number of reserves in the race, it is possible that other horses may also be strong contenders.

All of JERED MADDOX's wins have been over shorter distances but twice ran well at a mile earlier this year. Five of his six wins have been on the all-weather but is suited by fast ground and on his latest run at this distance finished second to Mulgrave, which subsequently completed a hat-trick. Secret Spy debuts in handicaps on his third run and is unexposed. Out of a winning half-sister to a Group 2 winner and a sibling to two capable staying winners, he should progress with racing although might eventually prefer further. Any Dream Will Do and Eloquent Arthur appeal most of the remainder.

There's likely more to come from SECRET SPY now making a quick switch to handicaps so he's the suggestion in this very open apprentice event. Mere Accountant has a similar profile to the selection and is second choice ahead of Jered Maddox and Starting Monday.

A chance is taken on three-time AW winner Giuseppe Cassioli, gelded since last season when he ran well on turf a couple of times

19:45 Cheltenham Hunter Chase (Class 4) 32f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, the horses that have the best chances of finishing in the top three are: 1st: 1.5/1 (2) SHANTOU FLYER - With a solid record at Cheltenham and recent wins in the hunter chase at Exeter and the Foxhunters at Cheltenham, 1.5/1 (2) SHANTOU FLYER has strong claims to win this race. 2nd: Law of Gold - Having placed second in this race last year and with a good record in other forms, Law of Gold could be a strong contender to finish in the top three. 3rd: 25/1 (5) ANOTHER VENTURE - Although he has not had the best results in recent hunter chases, 25/1 (5) ANOTHER VENTURE has performed well in points, and his experience as a veteran could give him an edge over some of the less seasoned competitors in the race.

Shantou Flyer is bound to be popular after an impressive success at Exeter and a highly-creditable third in the Hunters' Chase at the Festival here in March. However, preference is for LAW OF GOLD, who hasn't raced under Rules for 343 days but he won between the flags in February. He was narrowly denied in this contest last year and can gain compensation this time around. Just Your Type and Step Back are proven stayers as well and they must be considered.

LAW OF GOLD holds the edge on form and comes here on the back of a point win so gets the nod in an open hunter chase. Shantou Flyer is feared most on the back of his recent Exeter victory ahead of Just Your Type, a dual point scorer this year.

Shantou Flyer has obvious claims on a track he runs so well but LAW OF GOLD (nap) can have his measure over this distance.

19:55 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary provided, the horses that could potentially finish in 1st, 2nd and 3rd are: 1st place: 4/1 (6) TRABAJO DETECHO 2nd place: 8/1 (9) BELLA KOPELLA 3rd place: 5/1 (4) NORTHERN SPIRIT

Razzam makes his first appearance in handicaps and looks to have been given a workable mark based on what he's achieved so far. NORTHERN SPIRIT, however, was only denied by a head when second over C&D last month and, despite being 3lb higher in the ratings, Brian Ellison's gelding rates as a more solid proposition. Another Baar has been in good form on the turf of late and the son of Mayson also enters calculations.

BELLA KOPELLA had something to spare when scoring here in March and shaped as if still in form on her only subsequent outing, so she's worth a chance to get back to winning ways for all that this looks a competitive event for the grade. In-form pair Another Baar and Northern Spirit are obvious dangers.

Currently 2-2 over C&D, TRABAJO DETECHO (nap) did nothing wrong on turf last time and is fancied to see off Bella Kopella.

20:00 Downpatrick Handicap Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Based on the provided summary, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will do well in the race and finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, some horses that are mentioned as having solid claims or not being discounted include 3/1 (1) EARTHS FURIES, 12/1 (13) DOUBLE WINDSOR, 16/1 (10) OCEAN LEGACY, 3/1 (4) WALKING THE WALK, and 7/1 (8) MICHAEL'S PICK. The rest of the horses either have questionable recent form or are considered oppositional or hard to fancy. Two horses, 9/1 (15) DONNRUA DREAM and 20/1 (14) CIANKYLE, are listed as reserves. One horse, 14/1 (16) WESTERNERONA, is also listed as a reserve, but is noted as likely needing the debut chase run after being absent since August.

It's interesting to see the cheekpieces back on EARTHS FURIES after he ran so well in first time blinkers at Tipperary last time. The Dylan Thomas gelding was collared late on then when going down by a neck to Positive Thinker. He went up 3lb for that effort but Jack Gilligan eases his top-weight burden. It could be a battle of the Gilligan brothers here with Danny taking the mount on Walking The Walk for boss Gordon Elliott. This Imperial Monarch gelding has had a bit of a break since finish fifth in very testing conditions over hurdles at Punchestown in January. His chase form is stronger and he is entitled to play a big part in this. Elliott also saddles Everything Now, who has been running consistently in point-to-points, and it will be interesting to see how he fares back on the track.

EVERYTHING NOW arrives in good forms from points and is on a potentially favourable mark, so he's marginally preferred to stablemate Walking The Walk. Having excelled himself in a cross-country event at Punchestown last week, Michael's Pick is another obvious player.

Top-weight EARTHS FURIES holds plenty of appeal after a narrow Tipperary defeat over this trip by a progressive type

20:10 Cork Maiden 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

1st: 1.38/1 (7) FARNBOROUGH 2nd: 4/1 (5) CANUTE 3rd: 9/1 (14) SQUIRE DANAGHER

Ballydoyle have declared FARNBOROUGH and Canute with the pair separated by three lengths at Leopardstown. The selection is capable and being by Galileo, will be suited by stepping up in distance on today's sounder surface. Canute ran in first-time blinkers then and while not the quickest, shaped like he would appreciate this distance. Young Ireland, Group 2-placed last September, has bumped into some high class rivals in 10 defeats and while race-fit and proven over this distance, remains vulnerable to smarter types. Warrior Lion was reported to be post-race normal following a run in a smart Curragh maiden last August but has a tough task on reappearance. Squire Danagher showed promise at Gowran but reappears in a smart maiden. Sorrento Point was well backed in an easy-ground maiden on debut last October and while well held, can improve. Hijo De La Luna is by a soft-ground sire but nonetheless may have been unsuited by heavy at Navan.

A big field but Aidan O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand and his Galileo colt FARNBOROUGH is fancied to build on his reappearance Leopardstown second now he steps up in tirp and open his account. Stablemate Canute also has his first go over 1m2f and is feared most with improvement on the cards now his stamina is drawn out more. Young Ireland and Warrior Lion appeal as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.

Ballydoyle colts FARNBOROUGH (nap) and Canute clash again over an extra 2f and the former can confirm Leopardstown form

20:17 Cheltenham Hunter Chase (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

1st: 2.25/1 (5) MAGIC SAINT, 2nd: 4.5/1 (2) NOT THAT FUISSE, 3rd: 4/1 (11) PALOMA BLUE

This can go the way of FIX AT ALL, who arrives in terrific form after taking successes at Ludlow the last twice. Michael Scudamore's charge remains largely unexposed in this sphere and he gets the vote ahead of the capable Not That Fuisse and course winner Magic Saint, who has strong claims on his penultimate win at Wincanton. Last year's winner Solomon Grey is entitled to be thereabouts again.

MAGIC SAINT is best not judged on his latest effort at Aintree and he'd previously been quite impressive at Wincanton, so he's worth a chance to resume winning ways. Paloma Blue and Not That Fuisse could pose the main threats.

Despite his remote finish over the big Aintree fences last time, MAGIC SAINT may still prove the best of this field.

20:25 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in the top three. However, some horses that seem to have a good chance based on the information given are: 1) 5/1 (3) MACHO PRIDE - Well handicapped and a course winner 2) Arrives in good order and should go well again. 3) 14/1 (2) FINAL ACCOUNT - Has claims if the return of headgear does the trick and a C&D winner. It is important to note that horse racing is unpredictable and anything can happen on the day of the race. It is always recommended to do further research and consider other factors like form, jockey, trainer, and track conditions before making a final prediction.

BOARHUNT showed enough pace over further at Southwell last time out to suggest that he can handle the drop in trip. The four-year-old remains on a workable mark and he may have too much for the likes of Dreamcasing and Zegos Surprise, who has strong claims on his penultimate effort over C&D. Others to note include Atrafan, Final Account and Mutanaaseq.

MUTANAASEQ is really well treated and caught the eye having met trouble at Redcar recently, so he gets the nod in the hope that he gets a clearer passage this time. Dreamcasing is still lightly raced for a sprinter and looks the main danger, while Boarhunt is likely to put up another solid showing.

Dreamcasing is worth a look but MERRY SECRET has had excuses since his C&D win off tonight's mark in March and can bounce back.

20:30 Downpatrick NH Flat Race 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Based on the summary, it seems like 1.5/1 (5) SURF CLUB and 3/1 (2) EXTRAPOLATION are the two strongest contenders, with 4.5/1 (8) VALSORPRESA also having some potential. Therefore, the predicted finishing order would be: 1. 1.5/1 (5) SURF CLUB 2. 3/1 (2) EXTRAPOLATION 3. 4.5/1 (8) VALSORPRESA

A few of these have some decent placed form but it's hard to get away from Willie Mullins in bumpers and it would be no surprise if SURF CLUB made a winning debut. The Fame And Glory gelding makes a belated start at the age of seven and you'd assume he has to be showing something with connections persevering. He is a half-brother to a decent sort in Minella Trump, an 11-time winner. The Gordon Elliott-trained Valsorpresa ran a nice race on his debut when third to Bialystok at Naas in February before finishing mid-division in a strong looking maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse. He could go close now in this company. Isenay was placed in two Ayr bumpers before a disappointing effort at Kelso last time. He is another that has to be considered as does Extrapolation, who has run a couple of nice races in bumpers since winning a point-to-point.

SURF CLUB is related to a smart chaser and is in excellent hands, so he's well worth a chance to make a successful debut. Extrapolation has the best bumper form to date and is feared, while Valsorpresa should be involved if he can put a tame effort behind him.

21:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

1st: 2.75/1 (4) ANOTHER ANGEL 2nd: 5/1 (5) TANTASTIC 3rd: 4.5/1 (3) LATIN FIVE

This can go the way of LATIN FIVE, who must hold every chance if building on a strong runner-up effort at Thirsk last time out. He is now 8lb below his last winning mark and is narrowly preferred to Another Angel, who has not been outside the first two home in his last three starts. Beneficiary and Tantastic are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

Having added to his tally at Wolverhampton 3 starts back, ANOTHER ANGEL has run equally well in defeat both starts since, collared only late on having arguably gone off a little hard back at that venue 3 days ago. The return to 5f will hold no fears and he could be the answer. Latin Five and Tantastic head up the dangers.

Another Angel and Latin Five are respected but HIGH SECURITY had an excuse last time and an earlier fourth here was a good run.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
