LTO Selection:

13:40 Bath Maiden (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

MISS DOLLY ROCKER filled the runner-up berth at Lingfield over a mile in December, when just touched off by a short head. The daughter of Frontiersman is bred to get further and can unlock the improvement needed to shed her maiden tag at the fifth time of asking. The main threat might be Ajyad, who took a step forward when upped to this distance last time, while any market support for Ala Kaifi should be noted.

AJYAD shaped well when runner-up at Newcastle and is fancied to go one better here with further progress on the cards for this daughter of Australia. Miss Dolly Rocker has the form to have a big say too and is feared most, although a market move for newcomer Ala Kaifi would put a slightly different slant on things.

The suggestion is AL TARFA, who came on plenty on his second start and is selected in the hope that he can settle better this time.

Dam tough 5f-6f winner (RPR 88), sister to useful 6f-7f winner Harwoods Volante.
LTO Selection:

13:50 Goodwood Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The market will be a key guide but marginal preference is for PACKARD, who cost 150,000 euros as a yearling and the son of Mehmas is closely related to plenty of two-year-old winners. Double Jump is also very interesting given that his dam won at Listed level early in her juvenile career and Clive Cox's colt was another expensive purchase at 180,000gns. Others to note are Ambushed, Barnwell Boy and Moyet.

BATED BREEZE ran to just a modest level when mid-field here on debut 3 weeks ago but he showed plenty to work on and can put that experience to good use up against newcomers. Double Jump's sales price doubled from foal to yearling so is one to note, while Packard looks a likely type for Richard Hannon.

The market should be enlightening. As things stand, PACKARD looks a likely type with his owner's 2yos going great guns.

Spirit Of The Bay

8.5
8.5/1(-13%)
(5) Spirit Of The Bay 8.5/1, It's now 11 runs since her last win in 2021 but she posted a fair fourth of 7 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft) 25 days ago. Can give a good account now back up in trip.
Fair run over 1m at Bath this month and she's one to consider now back up in distance.

Maghlaak

1.1
1.1/1(+37%)
(3) Maghlaak 1.1/1, Made a promising start to his career with wins in novices at Kempton and Goodwood last summer and resumed from 8 months off with an encouraging third of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, heavy) 20 days ago, clear of rest. Big shout off an unchanged mark.
2-3 in 3yo campaign and reappeared with solid 3rd; open to further improvement; respected.

Thunder Max

7.5
7.5/1(+17%)
(7) Thunder Max 7.5/1, Yet to add to his debut success but he's largely run well in handicaps since. Beat only one in first-time blinkers at Chester 15 days ago though so he needs to get back on track.
Reappeared with encouraging fourth over C&D and soft ground may not have suited at Chester.

Tamarama

(1) Tamarama 4/1, Ended her time with Charlie Hills with a 10f Chelmsford win in October but she came in last of 7 for her new trainer in handicap at Windsor (10f, heavy) 18 days ago. Worth another chance.
Tailed off on stable debut but on soft ground; three wins last year and not written off.

Noble Anthem

22
22/1(-83%)
(2) Noble Anthem 22/1, 2 wins from 5 runs last year and ended 2022 with two efforts in the frame over hurdles. Respected on his return.
On a competitive mark on his best form but returns from a break with something to prove.
6
7th (6) Rogue Rocket (12/1 +14%)
Rogue Rocket

12
12/1(+14%)
(6) Rogue Rocket 12/1, Winner at Salisbury last July. Run best ignored (stumbled badly early) when last of 11 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 7 months ago. Not discounted on his return.
Disappointing on final two starts last season but perhaps a break will have helped.
LTO Selection:

14:05 Haydock Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

The unexposed MAGHLAAK shaped well enough behind a couple of rivals proven in testing conditions at Goodwood on his return and having progressed well last term, he can resume that forward momentum. Tamarama failed to fire at Windsor on her first appearance for Ralph Beckett, pulling too hard in conditions softer than ideal, but can be given another chance on a sounder surface. Spirit Of The Bay improved on her second start of the year and appears to be on an attractive mark.

MAGHLAAK was a dual winner last season and signalled he's ready to go in again when a promising reappearance third at Goodwood. Spirit of The Bay is on a lengthy losing run but should benefit from this step up in distance and is feared most off an easing mark, with Tamarama worth considering too.

The Charlie Hills-trained MAGHLAAK (nap) could be a lightly raced 4yo to follow and he is the selection ahead of Thunder Max.

(7) Jimmy Mark 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, sixth of 12 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, good to soft) 22 days ago, headway out wide over 2f out and keeping on. That was his best effort yet but he'll need to find further progress to get involved here.
Modest form in 5 starts but this isn't overly competitive & it's still early days for him.

2/1(-6%)
(3) Pink Lily 2/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. 6/1, career best when winning 14-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 9 days ago, cosily. Claims once more under a penalty.
Won well over C&D last week and leading claims despite her 6lb penalty.

Star Sprite

2.5
2.5/1(+50%)
(4) Star Sprite 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 4 in handicap (2/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 47 days ago, not seeing things out over the marked longer trip on back of 7 months off. This ought to reveal more having first crack at 10f.
Hasn't lived up to market expectation on a couple of occasions; flashed tail latest.

Man Made Of Smoke

(1) Man Made Of Smoke 25/1, Belatedly shed maiden tag at Wolverhampton (9.5f) at the start of the month but not in same form turned out under a penalty when last of 6 over that trip/track 14 days ago. Blinkers replace usual visor back on turf but he may find a couple too good.

Modest form to date; cheekpieces left off today; not bred to relish this longer trip.

4/1(-78%)
(2) Fullforward 4/1, 18/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, good to soft) 22 days ago, challenging inside final 1f and keeping on. Expected to be bang there.
In front of Pink Lily latest and 4lb better off today; strong claims.

(6) Alicefromumbridge 18/1, Respectable 7¾ lengths seventh of 14 to Pink Lily in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 40/1) 9 days ago, plenty to do over 2f out and plodding on. More needed if she's to double career tally here.
1m AW winner in January but not progressing and behind Pink Lily over C&D last week.
LTO Selection:

14:15 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

FULLFORWARD (second) had Pink Lily (third) behind at Salisbury on his latest outing and is now 4lb better off at the weights, as the latter went on to strike over this course and distance. If he is able to reproduce that level of form, the son of Tamayuz could prove very tough to beat. Another to consider is Star Sprite, who remains unexposed and was not beaten far on her handicap debut.

A winner over 1m on his final start as a juvenile, FULLFORWARD ran his best race yet for his new yard when runner-up over this sort of trip at Salisbury 3 weeks ago (Pink Lily placed third) and he can confirm the promise of that run and come out on top. The latter-named, a subsequent winner over C&D 9 days ago, rates a big threat however, ahead of Star Sprite.

Pink Lily won well over C&D last week but she may have to give best to FULLFORWARD at these weights.

(6) Sudden Ambush 7.5/1, Improved after 4 months off when off the mark in minor event at Lingfield (1m) in January, benefiting from an aggressive ride. Has matched rather than improved on that form in a pair of handicaps subsequently.
May still have more to offer; possibilities back down in distance.

Form dipped on latest AW run; attempts turf for first time.

(7) Seductive Power 12/1, Fairly useful performer who has scope and ran well on the AW first 2 starts this year. Was below form back on turf on most recent outing, though. Wears first-time blinkers.
May bounce back if he takes well to first-time blinkers.
5
4th (5) Man Of Eden (2.5/1 +17%)
Man Of Eden

2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(5) Man Of Eden 2.5/1, Irish import who made quite hard work of landing the odds on debut for new yard in a 1m Newcastle maiden in January. Failed to fully settle when sixth in 1¼m Newmarket handicap back from a break but benefited from the drop back in trip when second to a big improver over C&D last time. Shortlisted.
Finished nicely for second in similar event over C&D three weeks ago.
9
5th (9) Tiger Bay (25/1 -108%)
Tiger Bay

25
25/1(-108%)
(9) Tiger Bay 25/1, Reached the frame over 6f/7f at Wolverhampton at the end of 2022 and improved to get off the mark at Lingfield (7f, AW) last month, having run of race. Into handicaps now and more required.
Likely player if transferring her AW progress to turf.
8
6th (8) Woodstock (6/1 +45%)
Woodstock

6
6/1(+45%)
(8) Woodstock 6/1, Built on debut second when comfortably landing short odds at Chelmsford and didn't need to improve again to double his tally at Kempton in March. Seemed unsuited by very testing underfoot conditions tackling turf for the first time at Nottingham last time, so well worth another chance.
Progressive on AW; possibly unsuited by soft ground on turf debut.
11

1-1 on AW; 0-5 on turf; gelded since last run.

(4) John Chard VC 5/1, 100,000 gns yearling who displayed fine battling qualities to get off the mark in a Leicester novice (7f) in September. Matched that form when third on nursery debut at York on final outing and is likely to do better still this season given his physique. Has been gelded since last seen. Interesting.
Solid record in four races last term; enters the reckoning.

Not solid on turf form but the return to 1m may suit.

(1) Dornoch Castle 16/1, Went the wrong way at 2 yrs after a promising start and turned in another underwhelming effort after 9 months off (had breathing op) on his handicap debut at Haydock 13 days ago. Enough to prove at present.
May bounce back with Haydock reappearance under his belt.
2

Come Together

5
5/1(+0%)
(2) Come Together 5/1, Showed much improved form when edging out a promising newcomer close home in 11-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November. Has a 6-month absence to overcome but looks on a good mark for handicap debut.
Looks the type to improve further and do well in handicaps.
LTO Selection:

14:25 Goodwood Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

This is an open looking handicap and a tentative nod goes to MAN OF EDEN, who has a fitness edge over potentially his biggest dangers. Harry and Roger Charlton's charge was a good second over C&D last time and he can go close again, despite a 2lb rise. Come Together was successful over the extended mile at Wolverhampton but has been off the track since November, while John Chard Vc must also overcome an absence from the track.

COME TOGETHER looks to have got into handicaps on a good mark based on his win at Wolverhampton in November, so he's an appealing candidate, especially with the prospect of more to come. Man of Eden ran well behind a big improver over C&D on his most recent outing and is feared most, while Woodstock and John Chard Vc are others who enter calculations.

On the back of his good second over C&D three weeks ago, MAN OF EDEN could well go one better. Sudden Ambush is second choice.

Down the field at Goodwood; others preferred.
LTO Selection:

14:40 Haydock Maiden (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Any market confidence behind the George Boughey-trained newcomer Chic Colombine would be significant, but ALWAYS LOVE YOU shaped with plenty of promise when fourth at Windsor. The form of that race has worked out well, with the winner going in again since, while the second went close in Listed company at York last week. China Trade might prefer further than this in time but is sure to be fit and ready to go on debut.

ALWAYS LOVE YOU clearly knew her job and showed bright speed before proving vulnerable late in the day when fourth on debut in a Windsor novice (5f) last month. Very much the type to improve, she can build on that run and make it second time lucky. Chic Colombine and China Trade are a couple of appealing newcomers and may emerge as the lead threats.

The standard is set by ALWAYS LOVE YOU. Nicely bred newcomer China Trade is second choice.

LTO Selection:

14:50 Bath Stakes (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Succession made all last time over course and distance but he now has to carry a 7lb penalty, which could open the door for the Richard Hannon-trained MASHADI. The son of Blue Point was just touched off on his second career start at York and he can score here. The Liegeman, who is a full-brother to the multiple Group 1 winner The Tin Man, should be monitored in the betting.

Mashadi has finished runner-up on both outings so far and he may find one too strong again here in the shape of MAYO NEIGHS, who has plenty of speed in his pedigree and confidence would only heighten should market support arrive. Recent C&D winner Succession can fight out third spot with debutant The Liegeman.

Dual silver medallist MASHADI (nap) is taken to go one better. Succession and newcomer The Liegeman are feared most.

LTO Selection:

15:00 Goodwood Listed (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

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

It's difficult to rule any of these out with improvement on the cards, so only a tentative vote can go to ARAMINTA. It's not often Henry Candy sends out a winning debutant, so it was all the more striking when she cruised to success at Newbury last month. She then lost nothing in defeat when third over 1m here, and the step up in trip can see her in an even better light. Heavenly Breath and Veil Of Shadows are feared most, while Inner Space heads the remainder.

ARAMINTA acquitted herself well against a couple of older, more experienced rivals when a close third in a 1m course listed event 3 weeks ago and can build on that now stepping up to 1¼m. Veil of Shadows, Blue Missile and Understated look very useful prospects for good stables and head the many possible dangers in an open-looking listed event.

Although she lacks a Ribblesdale entry, VEIL OF SHADOWS looks sure to improve for going this far after her good run at Ascot.

LTO Selection:

15:15 Haydock Listed (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

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

GALE FORCE MAYA has finished behind her stablemate Azure Blue on her last two starts but that filly is now a Group 2 winner and with this faster surface sure to suit, the Michael Dods-trained seven-year-old gets the vote. Get Ahead has only her second try over this trip after competing over the minimum distance for most of her career, and remains of interest. Makarova was ahead of the selection at Newmarket and further improvement is possible with that run now under her belt.

GALE FORCE MAYA showed smart form when winning twice at this level last season and this looks another good opportunity for her to add to her tally under a penalty back on ground which should prove more suitable. Get Ahead is feared most back down in class, with Kape Moss best of the others.

Gale Force Maya holds leading form claims but this could go to the 3yo SWEET HARMONY, who has shown sprinting potential over 7f.

Lightly raced but she is in a competitive race after her absence and others are stronger.
LTO Selection:

15:25 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 5.5f Race Class Flow

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

COUP DE FORCE was only narrowly denied in a higher grade at Goodwood three weeks ago and the daughter of Lethal Force could be hard to stop off just a 1lb higher mark. Four Adaay is an obvious threat to the selection following her victory at Kempton earlier in the month. Redredrobin does not have to carry a penalty for her win at Salisbury recently and completes the shortlist.

The vote goes to the consistent GRANARY QUEEN, who has done most of her racing at 7f/1m but it could be that sprinting is her game after all. Coup de Force is accorded a great deal of respect on the back of a solid effort in a higher-grade handicap at Goodwood, while last week's Salisbury winner Redredrobin and Four Adaay are others to consider.

Coup De Force ran well in a better race last time but GRANARY QUEEN should get a good pace to aim at and can come out on top.

(9) Tintoretto 28/1, Landed 7f handicap at Wolverhampton in March but he ran poorly in similar event at Brighton 34 days ago. This C&D winner needs to get back on track.
Poor effort last time but is interesting on C&D win (off 4lb higher) two years ago.

Autumn Festival

5
5/1(-25%)
(1) Autumn Festival 5/1, Ended 2022 by completing a five-timer at Musselburgh (7f) in October. Took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, heavy) 20 days ago so he needs considering.
Productive sort; drop back to 7f looks ideal; 2-2 under William Buick; respected.
LTO Selection:

15:35 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A prolific winner in the second half of last season, AUTUMN FESTIVAL bounced back to form with a highly creditable effort in the Thirsk Hunt Cup and the drop in trip is a major plus. The booking of William Buick also catches the eye and he is taken to see off C&D winner Lyndon B and Global Esteem, who has not been beaten far on either start this season. Able Kane and Tintoretto are entitled to be thereabouts as well.

ROPEY GUEST is a consistent sort who shaped as if the run would put him spot on when fifteenth in Ascot's Victoria Cup so he gets the nod off a 2 lb lower mark here. Autumn Festival looked on the way back when fourth at Thirsk last time and is next on the list ahead of C&D winner Lyndon B.

Off a workable mark NIZAAKA could well enhance her strong record in British handicaps. Autumn Festival is feared most.

Dam useful French winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 9f winner). Bred for longer trips but her yard had a nice 2-y-o winner at Yarmouth earlier in the week. Wears hood.
Newcomer; has a classy pedigree and very interesting for stable whose 2yos are going well.
LTO Selection:

15:50 Haydock Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Just the one runner with any racecourse form, and SEVEN ACES may well be able to put that to good use. Slowly away at Sandown, she was never involved until passing one rival late on, but should have learned plenty from the experience. Amazing Winnie may be one of the better newcomers for a stable that has had four juvenile winners on the turf this year. Fallen Angel is another worth watching first time out.

A field of newcomers bar one so the market will likely prove the best guide in this novice, but as things stand FALLEN ANGEL is just about the pick on paper being by Too Darn Hot and out of the May Hill Stakes winner Agnes Stewart. Queen's Reign and Lady of Leisure are a couple of other well-related sorts to keep an eye on.

Some very interesting newcomers and preference is for MARY BAGOT, who is from a fine family. Fallen Angel is second choice.

In good form on AW over the winter; fair claims back on turf after 11 weeks off.
LTO Selection:

16:00 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

This represents a considerable drop in class for Flying Barty, who was last seen finishing sixth at Ayr in September. She makes her stable debut for Stuart Williams here and is taken to improve, but ALAINN TU has previous track form and shades the vote following some respectable efforts on the all-weather recently. Mayz makes her handicap bow and is another to consider.

ALAINN TU has shown improved form since her reappearance, getting off the mark at Wolverhampton at the start of the month before not being seen to best effect when third at Lingfield 6 days later. She is taken to resume winning ways at the expense of Miss Moonshine, who can leave her latest run behind following a break. My Delilah completes the shortlist.

Flying Barty could have more to come this year but DESERT ILLUSION is preferred back on fast ground and with headgear tried.

Batemans Bay

9/1(+18%)
(1) Batemans Bay 9/1, Shaped like a stayer on debut and duly improved for the extra 1f when winning Haydock novice. Ran well upped in grade/trip when fourth in Zetland Stakes at Newmarket (10f, good) 7 months ago and further progress in on the cards as his stamina is drawn out (gelded in interim).

Accounted for a subsequent Chester winner when getting up in the nick of time at Newbury.

Bigger price than Hadrianus when tailed off behind that rival in the Chester Vase.
LTO Selection:

16:10 Goodwood Listed (Class 1) 11f Race Class Flow

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

A fairly open contest in which marginal preference lies with KLONDIKE. A game winner over 1m3f at Newbury last month, William Haggas' expensive colt can make it two out of two, and the fact he holds an entry for the King Edward VII Stakes at Royal Ascot suggests he is showing all the right signs at home. Gregory is another who made a successful start to his career and he can give the selection plenty to think about, along with the grade-dropping Batemans Bay.

Normandie Stud Ltd won this contest 12 months ago with Lionel and they could have a star on their hands this time around in the shape of GREGORY, who justified support to see off a trio of previous winners at Haydock last month, and with significant improvement on the cards, he's fancied to take this step up in grade in his stride. Klondike is bred to stay well, so he may emerge as the main threat having also made a winning debut, with Tempered Soul third on the shortlist.

Klondike and Gregory are promising but HADRIANUS sets the standard on his Epsom second and there were excuses at Chester.

Down the field this year on her first two starts (C&D latest).
LTO Selection:

16:25 Haydock Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

The formbook points to the chances of Zouzanna, second on both her starts and only beaten a head at Kempton in November. She can go well, as can Ithra, a length second over a furlong shorter at Yarmouth and representing the in-form Alice Haynes stable, but SUB ROSA might have the edge. Fourth behind subsequent Nell Gwyn heroine Mammas Girl at Newmarket on her only start, she was green before running into traffic problems and if she learns from that, she could make up into a decent filly.

ZOUZANNA sets a clear form standard on last autumn's runner-up efforts. Roger Varian's Sub Rosa is open to progress on the back of her Newmarket debut fourth last October so she's second choice ahead of Yarmouth runner-up Ithra.

The Roger Varian-trained SUB ROSA was a promising fourth on her debut at Newmarket last October and is taken to make a winning return.

(4) More Than Likely 14/1, C&D winner. Shaped as if in need of the outing when ninth of 13 in handicap (40/1) back at this C&D (good to firm) 9 days ago. Others still more persuasive.
Won a division of this last year at 40-1; now 2lb lower and recently below par..

C&D winner; form has not yet picked up again in two AW starts this spring; handy mark..
LTO Selection:

16:30 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

ALFRED COVE arrives here following a respectable third on the all-weather at Chelmsford earlier this month and he must enter calculations if transferring that form back onto turf. The Cola Kid finished fourth when short of room late on over course and distance last time out and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Notre Maison also warrants a market check.

Fitter for his reappearance, THE COLA KID ran much better in a change of headgear when fourth at this C&D 9 days ago and he could be ready to take advantage of his reduced mark. Notre Maison shaped as if she'd be better for the run here last time and is feared most, while Suanni isn't one to write off having dropped to a career-low mark.

The suggestion is JACQUELINA, the pick of whose form prior to this handicap debut suggests she may be capable of defying this mark.

Angle Land

4.5
4.5/1(+10%)
(5) Angle Land 4.5/1, Bagged three handicaps on AW during the winter (all at 5f) and best effort yet on turf when runner-up behind Dream Composer over C&D 3 weeks ago, tackled over 1f out and edged out after. 5 lb better off with that rival now.
Couldn't deal with Dream Composer here three weeks ago; 5lb better off with the winner.

(4) Lihou 5/1, Resurgent from reduced mark this year, successful 3 times on AW and on top late on when going in again at Epsom (5f) last month. Creditable third from out of the weights at Chester (5f) 15 days ago and he ought to go well again in a refitted visor.

Has never been in better form following 5f wins on good to soft at Newmarket and here.

Comes here on the back of creditable in-the-frame efforts in recent weeks but no easy task on from out of the weights on this occasion.

Looked good on the AW in March and excuses since; perhaps better at 6f than 5f.
LTO Selection:

16:45 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 5f Race Class Flow

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

There was just over a length separating DREAM COMPOSER (first) and Angle Land (second) over course and distance three weeks ago and, although the latter is 5lb better off this time around, the James Evans-trained gelding is taken to confirm those placings. The consistent Lihou has been in great form so far this year, winning four times already, and may give the selection most to think about.

Plenty of these arrive in good form including DREAM COMPOSER who supplemented his Newmarket victory in April with a career-best display over C&D 3 weeks ago and he can complete the hat-trick in his present groove. Lihou and Angle Land may emerge as the lead threats.

A trappy little sprint. DREAM COMPOSER is on a roll and has a particularly solid record at this track, so he may go in again.

LTO Selection:

16:50 Curragh Maiden 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

OCEAN BAROQUE offered plenty of encouragement when filling the runner-up spot over C&D on his racecourse bow earlier this month and the now-gelded son of Caravaggio must hold every chance of building on that. Jakajaro will be worth monitoring closely in the market, having recorded a staying-on sixth over 5f at Cork on his debut, along with Joseph O'Brien's newcomer Absolute Advantage. Others worthy of consideration include Velvet Skies and Nemonte.

OCEAN BAROQUE showed plenty when second over this C&D earlier this month and sets a high standard. Jakajaro shaped like a potential improver when sixth at Cork so is respected, with stablemates Absolute Advantage and Nemonte making most appeal of the newcomers.

Plenty of unknown quantities here, but the logical choice is OCEAN BAROQUE, second to a potentially smart filly on his debut

LTO Selection:

17:00 Haydock Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

AURORA DAWN is difficult to oppose after she strolled home over 7f at Newmarket and although she has to carry a 6lb penalty for that victory, she will go up another 5lb for future races so she is well-in. Masterpainter is the only distance winner in this field and although not at his best so far this season, blinkers are tried, which may help him focus. Pearly Star is a work in progress and is probably better than she has shown so far.

It's very difficult to look beyond AURORA DAWN, who did the job in good style on her recent turf debut at Newmarket and she's a step ahead of the handicapper under a 6 lb penalty. Perhaps Pearly Star will improve on what she has shown in maiden/novice company now handicapping and Hugo Palmer's charge gets the nod ahead of Pearl Eye for forecast purposes.

This is all about AURORA DAWN, who comfortably won a big-field handicap at Newmarket last Friday and can follow up.

LTO Selection:

17:05 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

FAIR AND SQUARE looks to be the most solid proposition here as Ronald Harris' runner shaped well when second of 13 over this track and trip last time. With that in mind, he can go one better today off the same mark. Boarhunt is another who was second on his most recent outing, while Fact Or Fable may benefit from a drop in trip.

Having opened his account at Wolverhampton in February, BOARHUNT quickly left a below-par effort behind when runner-up at Southwell last month and Mick Appleby's 4-y-o could still have more to offer now switched to turf. He can get the better of Fair And Square who returned to form at this C&D 9 days ago, with We're Reunited another to consider.

Preference is for the unexposed BOARHUNT, who should cope with this drop in trip and is open to some improvement.

LTO Selection:

17:10 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

LITTLEFOOT makes his hurdling debut and is a good ride for 5lb-claimer Liam McKenna. He caught the eye in bumpers and has taken the runner-up berth three times in that code. He represents a shrewd stable and should be well prepared for hurdling. Ideal De Ciergues gave best in third on the run-in at Killarney, but the feeling is that there is a maiden hurdle in him particularly when you look at the good maiden hurdles he ran in before. Manisanda can play a part. She drops back in trip and get a tongue-strap. My Gaffer and Champagne Mahler are others to consider.

MY GAFFER impressed with the way he went through the race before his stamina began to tell at Punchestown last month, so he's very much of interest now dropping back in trip. Ideal de Ciergues and Littlefoot rate the main threats.

The choice is MY GAFFER, a bumper winner over this trip who ran with great credit in a good novice hurdle at Punchestown last month

Ascot was a write-off but he goes in more new headgear and others appeal more.
LTO Selection:

17:20 Goodwood Handicap (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Blazeon Five is likely to prove popular after regaining the winning thread at Ascot, and a 2lb rise is unlikely to prevent her from going close once more. A chance, however, is taken on GRANDMASTER FLASH. who wasn't seen to best effect when finishing fourth over 1m6f here earlier in the month, but he offered enough to suggest he can land a race of this nature. Better is also expected from First Emperor now returned to 2m.

MELAKAZ resumed his progress when winning a Chelmsford handicap with ease earlier this month and remains relatively unexposed over staying trips. He can follow up. Yorksea could be well treated returned to the Flat and is feared most, whilst Ehteyat can also make his presence felt.

LTO Selection:

17:25 Curragh Maiden 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MACHNAMH ran her best race to date when weakening into fourth over a mile at Naas earlier in the month and Jim Bolger's filly could gain a breakthrough success now dropped in distance. Danvers Gold offered plenty of encouragement on her third-placed debut here last June and the daughter of Galileo is feared most. Roaming Star often goes well and is respected, while newcomers Nelda and Ostraka require market checks.

DANVERS GOLD did well under the circumstances when third in a big field here in June and he remains a useful prospect despite his absence. Sibyl Charm is worth another chance to confirm debut promise so is next best ahead of Machnamh, who took a step forward when fourth at Naas.

There is not enough speed on her dam's side to suggest that MRS DANVER, who showed promise over 7f at two, can win over this trip

LTO Selection:

17:30 Haydock Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Having been withdrawn at the start when a warm favourite at Nottingham on his intended return in early April, DOG FOX made no mistake when winning at Yarmouth later that month. Ed Dunlop's charge has been raised 4lb for that success but he remains unexposed and is fancied to defy the hike, with further improvement likely. Tremendous Times is one to monitor closely in the betting ahead of his handicap bow, while Wadacre Gomez heads the remainder.

Conditions here will be very different to those under which DOG FOX made a winning reappearance at Yarmouth, but it's likely that the improvement he showed that day was owing to the switch to handicap company, step up in trip and the addition of a hood, not the ground. If that proves to be the case, Ed Dunlop's charge should have little trouble following up here off a 4 lb higher mark. Edmund Ironside and Wadacre Gomez may well emerge as the main dangers.

Soft going may well have been against AL HARGAH in her first two handicaps and today's better ground could help her prevail.

Three-time C&D winner on good and faster ground; has gone well fresh in the past.
LTO Selection:

17:35 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Mabre was a good winner over 1m at Newbury a week ago and another bold bid can be expected off the same mark, but the nod goes to TRANS MONTANA. Clive Cox's charge was competitive off this mark last season and a line can be put through her run last time after finding trouble in running. Eye Of The Water has raced here three times and has never been out of the first four, so another bold bid can be expected.

MABRE looked as good as ever at Newbury a week ago when gaining a third success of the year and he can score again off the same mark this time around. Heading the list of dangers is Eye of The Water who won over C&D on his penultimate start, while Revolutionary Man isn't one to take lightly if he makes a quick turnaround.

The mare KEEPER'S CHOICE looks interesting having dropped 4lb lower than for the last of her three C&D wins on good and faster ground.

LTO Selection:

17:40 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Runner-up over an extended 2m1f on his latest outing, a 2lb raised mark looks unlikely to stop Opening Bid being in the mix, but he has to shoulder top-weight here so it is easier to side with URABAMBA. The gelded son of Arctic Cosmos finished a fair third over an extended 1m7f at Wincanton last month and the eight-year-old makes plenty of appeal back up in trip. Duke Of Luckley completes the shortlist in a first-time visor.

On the face of things this looks a very good opportunity for OPENING BID to build on last month's Exeter second and get off the mark over fences at the sixth time of asking. Urabamba has been placed in similar company lately and should have a part to play again, while Rocambolas returned to his weak-finishing ways last time but would be a threat to all if reproducing the form he showed when scoring over hurdles last month.

Preference is for OPENING BID, who ran a big race in defeat at Exeter last month and remains well handicapped on hurdling form.

LTO Selection:

17:45 Limerick Maiden Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SPACE TOURIST looks a likely sort for Willie Mullins. Since switching to Mullins, this six-year-old mare won a Tramore bumper and finished a somewhat remote third in a bumper at Cork. That run can be viewed in a better light, though, as the winner has since won a Grade 2 novice hurdle. When she won in Tramore, Mullins commented that he hoped she would win over hurdles. Glendars Mahler won't be lacking in stamina having kept on in third over an extended 2m7f when last seen at Thurles in November. Sligo bumper winner Cash The Cheque has been placed twice over flights. She didn't perform in Tipperary and tries a new trip now. Miss Madeline outran her 125/1 odds when fourth in Tramore and could build upon that.

There's every reason to think SPACE TOURIST can improve on just her second start over hurdles having landed a bumper for Willie Mullins last summer, so she's a straightforward choice to come out on top. Cash The Cheque was a shade underwhelming at Tipperary last time but can provide the main threat if returning to the pick of her form up in trip. Glendars Mahler may prove best of the rest.

Maybe this is the chance for CASH THE CHEQUE to make up for some unlucky bumper defeats. The step up in trip on good ground should suit

LTO Selection:

18:00 Curragh Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Bellaphina surprised a few when winning a Limerick maiden in comprehensive style last month, giving the impression this extra furlong could bring out further improvement. However, the vote goes to the hat-trick seeking SNOWCAPPED, who was a most impressive scorer over 7f here earlier this month and can defy the 11lb rise she received for that success. Tea Olive is another who makes appeal having performed well on all three starts so far this season.

Jessica Harrington might be set for a second successive win in this useful fillies' handicap courtesy of the progressive SNOWCAPPED, who was well on top at the finish over 7f here last time and can make light of an 11 lb rise with the return to 1m in her favour. There should be more to come from Impact Warrior now handicapping and she's feared most ahead of Tea Olive, who has done well in lower-grade handicaps this spring.

Limerick maiden winner BELLAPHINA does not look badly treated for her handicap debut and can fly the flag for a small stable

LTO Selection:

18:10 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

BALKO SAINT finished second over an extended 2m4f at Kempton earlier this month and the fact he was headed approaching the last means he could benefit from a slightly shorter test of stamina. The class-dropping Kauto The King is now rated 8lb below his last winning mark and can bounce back to form, while Umndeni also warrants a market check on his return to chasing.

It might be worth taking a chance on COURTLAND bouncing back to form as he's come down a long way in the weights and his stable is going pretty well at present. Balko Saint is second choice ahead of last year's winner Kauto The King.

Granted a sound surface over 2m4f for the first time, COURTLAND is preferred over recent dual chasing runner-up Balko Saint.

LTO Selection:

18:15 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

REFLECTIONIST was in dominant form when powering seven lengths clear to score over a similar trip at Punchestown on Tuesday. He runs under a 7lb penalty and remains in the same 80-95 grade. Being by Sea The Stars, he should enjoy this ground. Lilian Bland is running very consistently this year and has been placed in all three runs in handicap hurdles. Connections now decide to claim 7lb off her back and she is weighted to go close. Sixty Seconds showed improvement in third at Clonmel, but that was on soft ground. He is due to step on much better ground here. He does have a fifth place in a Listowel bumper run on good to yielding ground in the book, though.

REFLECTIONIST built on the promise of his stable debut when scoring in comfortable fashion at Punchestown 3 days ago and he looks up to defying a penalty with further improvement on the cards. Dragon's Pass and Lilian Bland are a pair of credible rivals, though.

He may be only 2lb well in with his mandatory penalty, but it is hard to overlook Tuesday's Punchestown winner REFLECTIONIST

LTO Selection:

18:25 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

This can go the way of BROCTUNE RED, who arrives in excellent form and hasn't finished outside the first two in his last three starts. The slight drop back in trip is another plus, while he is able to compete off a mark 6lb lower than his all-weather figure, and he is preferred to Shimmering Sands and Westernesse, who remains a maiden after 10 starts but has shown promise since joining the David O'Meara stable.

This can go to BROCTUNE RED, who arrives in fine fettle and posted his best effort on turf when runner-up at Beverley last time. One For The Frog and Westernesse rate the principal dangers.

This can go to CLIFFS OF CAPRI, who is on a good mark and he is taken to return to winning ways back on turf in refitted blinkers.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Curragh Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SUBZERO was a clear second behind a progressive type, who has since come out and franked the form in Listed company, last time out over 7f at Leopardstown, and a repeat of that effort would make him very tough to beat. The Franchise is fancied to pose the biggest threat based on the form of his racecourse debut third last August over C&D. Beyond The Steps heads the remainder.

SUBZERO took a step forward on his sole start as a juvenile when runner-up in first-time blinkers (discarded here) at Leopardstown (7.2f) 19 days ago and a repeat may well be enough to see him get off the mark. The Franchise rates the chief danger but market support behind appealing newcomer Beyond The Steps would put a different slant on things.

It was an encouraging return from SUBZERO (nap). With the form boosted and the potential of him coming on for that, he's the one to beat

18:40 Worcester NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

It could pay to side with THE GAMBLER, who bolted up in a point-to-point in Ireland last month when trained by Patrick Turley. She can make both a winning Rules and stable debut, but C&D winner Genovese cannot be dismissed on the back of his most recent third-placed effort at Southwell. Jefe Triunfo is a newcomer of interest, especially when considering the booking of Harry Cobden.

THE GAMBLER changed hands for £20,000 after an easy victory in an Irish point last month and is fancied to make a winning start for new connections on her bumper debut. Chris Gordon's newcomer Jefe Triunfo could emerge as the main threat, especially if the market vibes are positive, with C&D scorer Genovese appealing as the pick of the trio with previous bumper experience and also considered.

The form standard is set by GENOVESE who has the added bonus of being a C&D winner. Jefe Triunfo is second choice.

18:45 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Denis O'Regan rode a patient race on CORKBEG at Wexford and the pair get the opportunity to follow up on that success. That was a shorter trip that the six-year-old gelding won over last weekend, but he has winning form over a similar distance to this. Roman Parish showed marked improvement to chase home the winner in Clonmel. If he is as effective on this better ground, he will have a fair chance. Roccorionach was gambled on in Killarney before finishing fourth. That was her first run for this stable and it wouldn't be a surprise to see her improve upon that on this drop in trip. Toon Town finished second in a slowly run handicap hurdle over 2m at this track in March. That was a big step forward and there could be more in the tank.

Lots with chances but BAL KAUTO made an eye-catching start for Declan Queally when a running-on sixth at Tramore and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark now. Toon Town is feared most on the back of his good recent second here, while Wexford-scorer Corkbeg can also have a say along with the unexposed Millies Dream.

The vote goes to TOON TOWN (nap) after a good second over 2m here last time, with the longer trip in his favour on this ground

LTO Selection:

18:55 Pontefract Stakes (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

ORMOLULU proved her 40/1 second at Southwell on debut was no fluke when easily scoring at the same venue, and there should be plenty more improvement forthcoming from Jamie Osborne's filly. Oneforsue has done well since joining the Paul Midgley stable and can give her the most to think about, although Caesars Pearl has strong claims on her narrow defeat at Wolverhampton in March.

ORMOLULU stepped up on her encouraging debut effort when making all at Southwell earlier this month and should have more to offer yet. She can follow up. Oneforsue and Caesars Pearl look the obvious dangers.

This can go to ORMOLULU, who made all at Southwell last time and can defy a penalty

LTO Selection:

19:00 Curragh Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SHE'S IN THE GAME returned from a break to strike at Dundalk and now goes off an 11lb higher mark. Considering the manner of that victory, the daughter of Starspangledbanner is fancied to make it three out of her last three to continue on her upward curve. The main threat might be Miramis, who steps back down in distance after a solid third at Gowran Park and is just 1lb higher. Touching Clouds completes the shortlist on her handicap bow.

TOUCHING CLOUDS beat a subsequent winner when winning her maiden at Gowran last summer and she surely has more to offer now handicapping given her pedigree/connections. She's In The Game enhanced her excellent strike rate for this rider at Dundalk in March so must be respected along with Midnight Fire, who wasn't seen to best effect here last time.

A competitive contest but JERED MADDOX ran well for a long way in a decent race at Cork last week and drying ground will suit

LTO Selection:

19:10 Worcester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 23f Race Class Flow

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

AJP KINGDOM was pushed out to strike by three lengths last time at Kempton over 2m5f, and that race is already working out well with the third coming out to bolt up since. The son of Mahler makes only his fourth start over hurdles and should have more to come, so he is strongly fancied to defy his 7lb penalty. Court Master is rated 120 and, if he can run anywhere near that level, he is likely to be bang there. Of the remainder, Nuova Vita makes the most appeal.

AJP KINGDOM and Court Master stand out a mile in a thin contest. The former has a penalty to shoulder, but he has much less to prove and is preferred, especially with his previous second to Twig reading better now than it did at the time.

Court Master is greatly respected on his best chase form and looks the only threat to recent hurdles winner AJP KINGDOM.

LTO Selection:

19:15 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 19f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

RATHNALEEN KAL beat a subsequent winner on slower ground at Clonmel and has to be respected off 6lb higher. Trendy Lady could have a say on handicap debut for Henry de Bromhead. The last time she raced over flights she was a beaten favourite in fourth at Downpatrick, but all three horses that finished in front of her have won since. Trendy Lady has run well off a break before. I Don't Get It is highly likely to adopt his customary front-running tactics. They have served him well as he has won two of this last three races and was runner-up in the other one. Trendy Lady's stablemate, Atimetodream, has one notable third place at Cork in the formbook. There is surely more to come from her on handicap debut. Deep Pockets is not without hope up in trip.

RATHNALEEN KAL took her form up a notch when scoring at Clonmel recently and looks weighted to go in again despite taking a 6 lb rise in the weights. Atimetodream looks open to progress now going into handicaps and rates the chief threat, although Farceur de Sivola is another handicap debutant who can have a say along with the resurgent I Don't Get It.

Eoin McCarthy has a strong hand here with Clonmel winner RATHNALEEN KAL and Deep Pockets, the former just preferred

LTO Selection:

19:25 Pontefract Stakes (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

George Boughey has done well with his two-year-olds already this season and MUQTAHEM has the potential to be another useful one after showing plenty of ability when third on debut at Hamilton. The step up in trip looks to be a plus and he may have too much for Nellie Leylax, who carries a 6lb penalty for a determined success at Beverley. A son of Expert Eye, Expert Choice looks like the pick of the newcomers for a stable that can ready one.

NELLIE LEYLAX did well to run down a front runner with prior experience on his Beverley debut and, with this step up in trip sure to suit, he's selected to defy a penalty at the first attempt. Muqtahem looks the obvious threat having shaped well first time up at Hamilton last week, while There's No Limit is pick of the newcomers before market clues.

The one that appeals most is NELLIE LEYLAX, who created a good impression on debut and she is bred to handle these quicker conditions

LTO Selection:

19:30 Curragh Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Dunum continues to go from strength to strength and was a clear-cut winner on his Limerick return, while Earls burst back into life when denying All Lies Ahead at Cork. Joseph O'Brien holds a strong hand and while there is no denying Gambe Veloci was impressive when breaking through at Limerick, a chance is taken on his returning stablemate POINT GELLIBRAND, who has been set some stiff assignments. Tosen Wish, a former inmate of O'Brien's, caught the eye when fifth in Earls' Cork race.

Unsurprisingly plenty arrive with claims, and it could pay to take a chance on Cork eye-catcher TOSEN WISH. Very much catching the eye in the race won by re-opposing Earls on that occasion, he remains low-mileage on the back of just 4 career starts and can prove his mark lenient. Dunum, All Lies Ahead and aforementioned Earls head up the dangers in an ultra-competitive handicap.

Perhaps the most interesting runner is POINT GELLIBRAND, who is unexposed in handicap terms and may now prosper at four.

LTO Selection:

19:40 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

Fine By Her went in by just under two lengths in this grade over 3m last time at Ludlow, and a 3lb rise for that keeps her in with a big shout. However, preference is still for STRIPE OF HONOUR, who defied his huge odds in style on his latest outing at this track over 2m4f, and the way he came clear suggests the step back up to this distance may not pose any problems. D'jango is noted too.

STRIPE OF HONOUR could hardly be labelled a model of consistency but if in the same form as when scoring by a wide-margin here last week he will prove a tough nut to crack. D'Jango is on a handy mark returned to this sphere and could be the one to follow the selection home. Symbolic Spirit is also shortlisted, along with last-time-out winners Fine By Her and Nelsons Rock.

June 2022 C&D scorer D'JANGO can take advantage of this similarly realistic assignment, ahead of the 4lb well-in Stripe Of Honour.

LTO Selection:

19:45 Limerick Handicap Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Reserve Arctic Ambition would have a serious chance if getting a run. His last two starts came over fences including when winning at Kilbeggan in April. He would be competing off a hurdle mark 27lb lower than his chase mark. Furthermore, Danny Gilligan would take 7lb off his back. There was definite promise in SHEEPHAVEN FLYER's handicap debut at Downpatrick. The Milan gelding stayed on well for third and a reproduction of that run should have him heavily involved. Just Hannah has shown snippets of form on better ground while Saint Bernadette posted a trio of third places in hurdle races last autumn.

Lots of these arrive with a question mark against them so SHEEPHAVEN FLYER looks the way to go nudged up only 1 lb for his very good Downpatrick third. In-form pair Tilloughna and Who's Houdini appeal as the pick of the remainder and can chase home Henry de Bromhead's low-mileage 5-y-o in that order.

Putting in good late work to take third at Downpatrick, SHEEPHAVEN FLYER remains relatively unexposed and gets the vote

LTO Selection:

19:55 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

CREMA INGLESA did well to finish runner-up at Windsor given she was positioned at the rear, and she could regain the winning thread now turned out quickly off the same mark. A 4lb rise for Golden Keeper's success at Southwell earlier in the month looks more than fair and he isn't one to take lightly. C&D winner Carrigillihy is only 1lb higher than for his September success here and he completes the shortlist.

UNPLUGGED was shaping up well in the winter, unlucky not to finish closer when third at Newcastle when last seen in December, and remains of interest back from a break. Crema Inglesa lost little in defeat when second to a useful prospect at Windsor 11 days ago and is next best ahead of recent Southwell-winner Golden Keeper.

The one to appeal most is CARRIGILLIHY (nap), who should be suited by the return to faster ground and he's bidding to make it 4-4 here.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Curragh Handicap 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A fiendishly difficult race to unpick in which many would appear to hold chances, so only a tentative vote can go to the form horse DANDYVILLE. Natalia Lupini's charge racked up a brace of successes at Dundalk in November before returning with a decisive victory at Naas, so a subsequent 10lb rise might not be enough to stop him from completing the four-timer. Others to note include Hurricane Ivor, Tawaazon, Jon Riggens and last year's runner up Mickey The Steel.

Lots with chances in this very competitive handicap. DREAM TODAY made a solid return to turf when third to the reopposing Dandyville at Naas 3 weeks ago and is taken to turn the tables on 10 lb better terms. Natalia Lupini's charge is unlikely to go down without a fight as he bids for a 4-timer and is second choice ahead of recent Navan 1-2 Jon Riggens and Tawaazon.

It's hard to get away from DANDYVILLE who returned with a third win on the spin at Naas this month and he can come on for that

LTO Selection:

20:10 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

SINURITA is having her first run in handicap company after outrunning her odds over 2m5f at Ludlow earlier this month, where she finished third of 11. This opening mark of 88 looks workable and this slight drop in trip looks likely to suit. The consistent Barely Famous is having her first run for Matt Sheppard and she is noted despite the absence, while Valentine Getaway should also be in the mix.

Several in with a squeak but a chance is taken on BLUE SANS, who endured a miserable 2022/23 campaign but can get back on track for her top yard arriving fit from points/having tumbled in the weights. Sinurita, Whenthepennydrops and Barely Famous are just a handful of possible dangers.

Previous C&D winner BLUE SANS (nap) shaped well when second in a point last month and she gets the nod over Sinurita.

LTO Selection:

20:15 Limerick NH Flat Race 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ONE FOR LUCY wouldn't be winning out of turn after a run of three consecutive runner-up finishes in bumpers. She enjoys better ground and that is what she should encounter on her seasonal reappearance. Willie Mullins takes the wraps off French-bred Ivana and she is an obvious danger in the hands of Patrick Mullins. Gordon Elliott's The Grey Dove was pipped by a head when last seen in Downpatrick. That race was over a year ago, though. Jessica Harrington's Jekiki is another newcomer to note. It is unlikely that third-reserve Littlebiggie will get a run, but she was very good in winning a Stradbally point-to-point by seven lengths.

The Willie Mullins-trained IVANA gets the nod to make a winning debut, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Reappearing pair One For Lucy and The Grey Dove have some fair form and might give her most to do.

Such is the strength of the yard's bumper team, IVANA could be up to make a winning debut, chiefly at the expense of One For Lucy

(3) Butterfly Effect 10/1, Blinkered for 1st time, again wasn't seen to best effect when sixth of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) just over 3 weeks ago, not ideally placed. Back up in trip. She's capable but usually misses the break so is something of a hostage to fortune.
Has shown ability from 6f-1m2f on AW; should be suited by the return to 1m2f and claims.

LTO Selection:

20:25 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

In a modest looking affair, a tentative vote goes to BUTTERFLY EFFECT. George Scott's filly wasn't at her best when finishing sixth on the Lingfield all-weather earlier in the month, but her previous displays suggest that she has a race of this nature within her compass. Dancing Gypsy may appreciate the drop in distance from an extended 1m3f at Haydock and he warrants consideration, as does Ski Jump, who wasn't disgraced when placing at Beverley recently.

There was more than enough in DANCING GYPSY's penultimate run at Doncaster to think he's got a bigger performance in him at some stage so, provided he can leave a below-par effort behind earlier this month, John O'Shea's 3-y-o is put forward as the answer. Cantalupo Bella resumed her progress when third at Wolverhampton recently so she may emerge as the main danger, ahead of Absolute Queen and Butterfly Effect.

The step up to 1m2f and the step into handicaps should suit the newly gelded DIFFERENT TONE, who is open to plenty of improvement

Tailed off on AW when last seen; probably needs a bit further than this these days.
LTO Selection:

20:30 Curragh Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

In a competitive handicap A Shin Undine may prove popular after winning off a 7lb lower mark at Gowran Park. She can go well over this reduced trip, but preference is for FACETHEPUCKOUT, who was unlucky in running before coming home third at Naas and races off just a pound higher here. Others worthy of a place on the shortlist are Secret Spy and Helpmeout.

FACETHEPUCKOUT showed the benefit of his reappearance run and was arguably unlucky not to win when meeting interference at a crucial point when third at Naas (1m) 5 days ago and, unsurprisingly turned out quickly, he could well be up to making amends again partnered by Colin Keane. Dagoda remains a maiden but is knocking on the door and is feared, with Eloquent Arthur, Jaafel and Relevant Range others fancied to feature.

RELEVANT RANGE appears to be on a good mark back in a handicap and he's looked just as good on turf in the past

Struggled in three juvenile/maiden hurdles in 2021-22; handicap debut.
LTO Selection:

20:40 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

The nod goes to BOUNDSY BOY, who finished fourth of 10 over 2m at Uttoxeter last time. Bear A Hand was in third on that occasion, but the form is likely to be reversed given Oliver Greenall and Josh Guerriero's runner is on better terms. That looks to be the form to concentrate on, although Royal Max commands respect on his handicap bow for powerful connections.

ROYAL MAX remains open to improvement and could be a different proposition now sent handicapping. He gets the nod. Bear A Hand and Boundsy Boy look the likeliest dangers.

The suggestion is NORDY LORDY, who ran well for a long way over 2m3f at Warwick recently and may benefit from this drop back in trip.

LTO Selection:

20:55 Pontefract Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

VINCE LOMBARDI won in smooth fashion at Hamilton on Friday and a 5lb penalty on this quick turnout may not be enough to stop him from completing a double. The fact that Grant Tuer's four-year-old has yet to triumph over 5f will give hope to C&D scorer Ventura Express, who is now 1lb lower than his last winning mark, although Late Arrival may emerge as the chief threat judged on his returning third at Haydock last month.

VINCE LOMBARDI produced a career best to resume winning ways in comfortable fashion at Hamilton last week so is taken to defy a penalty. Impeach is in better form than her recent form figures suggest and is feared most from a sliding mark.

This looks between in-form pair VINCE LOMBARDI and Late Arrival with preference for the former, who is 2lb well in under a penalty.

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.
