It took 12 starts before KYNSA got off the mark, but she had plenty of placed form to her name prior to that Kempton triumph, when making all in first-time cheekpieces. If the headgear works a second time, she might come home in front again. Charlatan has been dropped 2lb after his Brighton third and, with Kyle McHugh claiming 5lb, he could go close. Mumayaz was beaten half a length at Brighton off this mark and rounds out the shortlist.

KYNSA opened her account with a bit to spare at Kempton last time and a 2 lb rise doesn't look sufficient to prevent her from following up. Brighton runner-up Mumayaz could emerge as the main danger, although in-form pair Red Hat Eagle and Charlatan are others to consider in an open handicap.

This can go to KYNSA who was well handled by Dominique Van Der Kraats at Kempton and may well follow up.

IL PELLEGRINO hasn't run since last October but showed useful form as a juvenile and reappears in a winnable maiden. Out of a winning half-sister to French 2,000 Guineas winner Aussie Rules, he finished second on Curragh debut to a subsequent Listed and American Grade 3 winner and while he was a beaten odds-on favourite at Naas in October, the winner is capable while the runner-up finished fifth in the recent Irish 2,000 Guineas. Settlement has a big race-fitness advantage but is frustrating, having failed to build on her juvenile promise and is tried in first-time cheekpieces. An Mhi Abu disappointed on his second start at Fairyhouse recenty but had previously run well on Leopardstown debut.

IL PELLEGRINO may have been turned over at short odds when last seen in the autumn but the pair ahead of him on that occasion have turned out to be useful and he can get off the mark on his return. Dermot Weld's Settlement is second choice ahead of Judge Me Not.

Several with similar chances but perhaps it's worth giving another chance to SETTLEMENT, dropped in trip with cheekpieces fitted

ROGUE ENDEAVOUR shaped promisingly when fourth over 6f on debut at Leicester 25 days ago and, having displayed early speed in that race, the drop in trip to 5f could see him off the mark. Sonic Blue was well beaten at Ripon last time out but may emerge as the main danger, having previously made a winning debut at Doncaster. Debutant Managing Director might be worth a second look for the in-form Bryan Smart team, especially if the market speaks in his favour.

ROGUE ENDEAVOUR made a promising start at Leicester and seems sure to improve, so looks the way to go. Qaseem should progress also, while Peninsula Power and Managing Director are interesting newcomers.

A few with chances but Richard Fahey's Profitable colt PENINSULA POWER appeals on paper and is taken to go in on debut.

Cornahilt Soldier is a contender if judged on her 7f stroll here rather than her subsequent Fairyhouse defeat over 1m4f, but she comes up against some interesting handicap debutants. The pick of the bunch could be PRESENCE, who looks nicely treated after her Dundalk fourth in a race won by the classy Port Fairy. My Mate Tony starts off on a low rating, and Model Approach is another to enter the equation in first-time blinkers.

PRESENCE gets the tentative vote on her handicap debut. Cornahilt Soldier, Galician Girl and My Mate Tony are others to note and a market move for the last-named would be particularly interesting.

This could boil down to a battle involving handicap newcomers from good homes. A tentative vote goes to Natalia Lupini's PUNTA COCO

A homebred son of Dubawi and related to numerous winners, he might be able to make the most of the weight concession. Invited is another to consider seriously after his Newbury third, when running on to go under by a length. He cannot be discounted in a race that may be full of future winners.

ANCIENT TRUTH looked a good prospect when making a successful start over 6f on the other course here, beating a couple of subsequent winners, and he's sure to improve over this longer trip so can defy a penalty. Invited made a promising start at Newbury last week and is sure to progress also. Hidden Secret, a stablemate of the selection, and Royal Alliance are interesting newcomers.

This can go to ANCIENT TRUTH after his successful debut on the Rowley Mile last month. That form has since been boosted,

EMERALD ECLIPSE reverts to handicaps having run well in a recent maiden and is suited by fast ground and this distance. His initial Dundalk runs were quite encouraging and while he was well held on handicap debut at Gowran, the third-placed horse won subsequently while the winner, runner-up and fourth-placed horses were each subsequently placed. Solomon Coop has a similar profile, in that he was well held on his own handicap debut recently but has useful form in maidens and has form at this distance. Hemight debuts in handicaps and while well enough held at Tipperary last month, should be better suited by this faster ground and runs in first-time cheekpieces.

SOLOMON COOP was better than the result on his recent 1m Leopardstown handicap debut and can come good now dropping back to 7f. Joseph O'Brien's Emerald Eclipse is second choice ahead of Byzantine Empress.

Sure to appreciate the return to this trip EMERALD ECLIPSE (nap) could prove the one to beat on ground to suit

There was plenty to like about the way KINETIC FORCE opened his account on debut at Lingfield and, with that experience under his belt, he could prove hard to beat. Airspeed failed to justify favouritism on debut when third at Carlisle, but the winner Ain't Nobody boosted the form when landing the Windsor Castle Stakes on Wednesday at Royal Ascot, and Karl Burke's charge remains open to improvement. Recent Pontefract second Lady Luzon may do best of the remainder.

The well-bred KINETIC FORCE created a good impression when scoring first time up at Lingfield and can make it 2-2 with improvement on the cards. Airspeed was sent off favourite when chasing home the Windsor Castle winner at Carlisle and will progress. Doncaster-winner Al Hussar should also be on the premises again.

Karl Burke's AIRSPEED appeared to be strongly fancied at Carlisle and perhaps the slow ground blunted his speed.

BEDTIME STORY, a daughter of Frankel out of dual Nunthorpe winner Mecca's Angel, could hardly appeal more on pedigree and, on the back of a comfortable success over the extended 7f at Leopardstown 16 days ago, the sole representative of Ballydoyle is very hard to ignore, especially when Aidan O'Brien's record in this race is taken into account. By the same sire, Age Of Gold made a pleasing start over 6f on debut at Yarmouth and, now stepped up in trip, he could be a fly in the ointment for O'Brien as he bears down on a seventh Chesham winner. There are a host of potential improvers, with stablemates Expensive Rose and Lazy Griff ones to consider each-way, while big runs from Motawahij and Jewel Of London cannot be ruled out.

BEDTIME STORY looked a fine prospect when running out an easy winner first time up at Leopardstown and is bred to go to the top, so she can give Aidan O'Brien another victory in this listed contest. The clear danger is Godolphin's Age of Gold, who was impressive when scoring at Yarmouth and can improve plenty himself. Leicester-winner Pentle Bay was highly in demand at Monday's sale and is a big player up in trip. Motawahij is one to note at bigger odds.

Bedtime Story and Age Of Gold are promising. PENTLE BAY, Miss El Fundi and Chilly Breeze are interesting at bigger odds.

NOT JUST ANY EAGLE fared best of those ridden off the pace when finishing an eye-catching third after meeting trouble in running over an extended 1m1f at Gowran earlier this month. Stepping up in trip off an unchanged mark, he may be tough to stop. Explorers Way shaped with promise on just his third start for this yard when finishing third over 1m2f at Navan latest, and he is respected off the same mark. Limestone Red should appreciate going up in distance and is noted too.

CHOPSTICKS has races in him and could be the way to go. Not Just Any Eagle and Explorers Way are also high on the shortlist.

With Silvestre De Sousa enjoying a resurgence since his return from Hong Kong, it may pay to side with MISS BODACIOUS. Karl Burke's filly dead-heated to win at Chelmsford on her second appearance, despite a blocked run, and begins her handicap career off a reasonable mark of 74. Unico has her first outing for Chris Gordon after a Yarmouth success and she can go well, despite a 3lb rise. Miss Anya and Cuban Melody bring consistency to the party.

There's a strong possibility MISS BODACIOUS will be better over a bit further in due course, but an opening BHA mark of 74 is potentially lenient for a filly whose physique, attitude and pedigree suggest there is even better to come, so she's taken to come out on top. Boadicia ran out a ready winner of a Salisbury handicap 4 weeks ago and is feared most, along with Cuban Melody.

This can go to BOADICIA (nap) who looked progressive when making a successful handicap debut at Salisbury. She can defy an 8lb rise.

Out of a winning half-sister to Hong Kong Group 1 winner Designs On Rome, she has improved this year and having met trouble in-running when finishing fourth in a valuable Curragh handicap in May, competes from just 2lb higher today. Frankel-sired Quadruple is out of a Group 2 winner and while her form is a little limited, is consistent and drops to handicap company. Help Me Rhonda ran well on handicap debut at Gowran six days ago and while well held by the first two finishers, shaped as though today's mile might suit.

HELP ME RHONDA shaped well in a big field on her recent Cork handicap debut and can build on that promise now. Fellow 3-y-o fillies Quadruple and September Leaves can give her most to think about.

A C&D maiden winner last time, SEPTEMBER LEAVES gets the benefit of a talented claimer's 7lb allowance today and can follow up.

David O'Meara's nine-year-old defied a mark of 96 here in October 2020 and finds himself 33lb lower in the handicap at present, while his two recent placed efforts suggest he's in good form. Fellow track-and-trip scorer Tacitus heads the list of possible dangers along with the Adrian Nicholls-trained Due Consideration, who finished a half-length second at Ripon earlier this month.

YOUNG FIRE looks ready to strike again judged on his latest Ayr performance and could be the way to go. Chatty is shaping up well and respected, while Tacitus is also threatening to end his losing run.

Several have a chance on their best form notably TACITUS, who won this 12 months ago, and was a good second last time at Musselburgh.

St Leger winner CONTINUOUS should be a real force over middle distances this season and can put down a significant marker on his first start of the campaign. Versatile regarding the ground, the son of Heart's Cry was far from disgraced when fifth in the Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe when last seen and the forecast quicker surface could be a key element to a dominate effort here. Middle Earth was seventh in the St Leger but returned with a gutsy success in the Aston Park at Newbury last month. The Gosdens' representative is feared most, although Desert Hero is surely better than he managed when fifth in that Group 3 contest and enters calculations. A winner at this meeting in 2022 when with George Boughey, Missed The Cut, a multiple Grade 3 winner for his new trainer in the States, is noted back at this venue with a first-time tongue-tie added.

CONTINUOUS lacks a recent run but he was much improved in the second half of last year and will prove hard to beat if returning anywhere near that sort of level. Middle Earth did well to overcome a pace bias in a Newbury Group 3 last month and could easily have more to come, while Desert Hero is better judged on his excellent reappearance at Sandown.

Bahrain revelation ISLE OF JURA continued the excellent work at Goodwood and is the selection ahead of US raider Missed The Cut.

HASNA looked a decent sort when winning on her second start by a couple of lengths at Naas and although she is making her handicap debut here, a mark of 87 may underestimate the daughter of Sea The Moon. Lady Doris was caught late on over 1m4f last time out at Fairyhouse but has a better chance of lasting home over this trip, leaving top-weight Fiver Friday as an interesting alternative, with jockey Robert Whearty claiming 5lb from the saddle.

LADY DORIS is progressing and, having been collared late over 1m4f last time, she's likely to take another step forward back down in trip, so she's preferred to Hasna, who is open to further improvement on the back of her Naas maiden success. Mo Ghille Mar can't be ruled out.

Caught on the line over 1m4f at Fairyhouse last time after going clear, the lightly-raced LADY DORIS can make amends back to this trip

Charlie Appleby has trained the last two winners of this contest, but First Conquest disappointed at York having made a successful start to his career in the Wood Ditton. He's still preferred to the newcomer Arabian Light, while Ombudsman is a 340,000gns Godolphin debutant representing the Gosdens, who also run SWORD. A promising third at Doncaster on his reappearance, the Kingman colt may prove the one to side with in an open contest. Both Dosman and Kilt made a winning return to action and are others to consider, despite carrying penalties.

This looks a strong novice but it's still hard to ignore the claims of SWORD after his promising reappearance at Doncaster 3 weeks ago. On 6 lb better terms Skipper might be able to turn around last month's Rowley Mile form with Kilt and give the selection most to do.

This can go to SWORD who still looked green when third at Doncaster last month. He looks to have an even bigger effort in him.

AMEMRI won today's earlier-race on this fixture last year and is better than her latest run. A three-time winner who is well suited by this distance, she met minor traffic when disappointing at the Curragh but had previously run well at Cork in May, is generally reliable and should again compete from her rating. Thirtysecondstreet has been placed twice from 15 runs, including at Gowran recently and if she can replicate that form, has obvious claims with ground and race conditions in her favour. On Our Radar was placed on his only other run at a mile and while he was well held here recently, competes from a career low rating under his regular 7lb claimer.

9-y-o SIRJACK THOMAS needs to better his recent efforts, but he's slipped to a very attractive mark and this represents a drop in grade, so he's put forward as the tentative selection. On Our Radar and Ano Manna are a couple of others to consider.

Kevin Ryan's filly has a 6lb penalty to contend with on the back of that win, but she has plenty of scope for improvement and this unexposed three-year-old remains the one to beat. She is marginally preferred to Arlington, who hasn't been seen since winning at Newcastle 96 days ago, while handicap debutant Scarfo is also worth a second look.

SOUL SINGER more or less matched the pick of his all-weather form when fifth at Doncaster last week and a similar sort of performance could be enough to see him shed his maiden status. Last-time-out winners Yengaa and Amazing Winnie head up the opposition.

Having shown improved form to win last time, YIENGAA is taken to follow up by beating last week's Doncaster winner Amazing Winnie.

Following a last-gasp victory in the Group 2 Greenlands Stakes over 6f at the Curragh last time, MITBAAHY is fancied most to follow up that success and give last year's winning connections of this renewal a second success in as many years. Charlie Hills' five-year-old got up late to see off Regional on that occasion, who has since confirmed the form by running well into second in the King Charles III earlier this week. The progressive Mill Stream got up in the shadows of the post having been well-fancied in the Duke Of York last month and another bold bid appears likely. Kinross, who finished a disappointing seventh in this race last year, returns to the track after 245 days off and would be of major interest if any significant rainfall hit the track on the day, while the hat-trick seeking Shartash is also shortlisted.

Archie Watson has done a fantastic job since SHARTASH came into his care and, while the 4-y-o is back in much stronger company, the visual impression of both his wins this term suggest he's open to more improvement for new owners, so he's preferred to Duke of York winner Mill Stream. Kinross is always a player at the top level but others have a fitness edge on him.

The filly BELIEVING ran a cracker when fourth in the King Charles III Stakes here on Tuesday and 6f may well suit her even better.

Glor Tire won in good style over the extended 1m1f at Gowran Park last time and she looks primed to offer another bold bid, but a 7lb penalty will make life tougher. Therefore, preference is for PSALM, who is one of two saddled by Aidan O'Brien in this and he can shed his maiden tag on his handicap debut. This son of Sea The Stars is likely to appreciate this extra yardage and he was unlucky to be collared late over 1m2f at Cork last month. Gibbs Island is also of interest.

OCEAN OF DREAMS looked an excellent prospect when scoring on debut last year and, while he's yet to fully build on it, he took a positive step last time and is worth a chance to prove himself better than a mark of 90 with cheekpieces on for his handicap debut. Going Remote and Gibbs Island are dangers and Glor Tire can't be dismissed given how much she's already improved this season.

Aidan O'Brien mounts a two-pronged challenge. OCEAN OF DREAMS is put forward as a colt who can improve over this trip

TREFOR arrives on the back of a victory at Windsor. He's only been raised 3lb and an earlier second on the Rowley Mile here in April behind the progressive Woodhay Wonder suggests another bold bid is on the cards. Many A Star still looks a shade high in the ratings judged on recent placed efforts, but Eminency might be fairly treated at present and went agonisingly close at Goodwood last time. Ripon runner-up Abate is not out of it, while the Irish colt Goal Exceeded is worth a second glance back over his winning trip.

The pick of these could be EMINENCY, who finished with a flourish when just failing at Goodwood and this stiffer track will be in his favour. Completely Random went down narrowly to a most progressive type on the other course here last time and he is a much-respected main danger, while Trefor is another 3-y-o with a chance. Many A Star completes the shortlist.

This tricky handicap can go to ABATE, who won this race two years ago and put up an improved effort at Ripon last time.

HARBOUR WIND was a smart stayer last year and this race is likely to have been mapped as a starting point ahead of another autumn campaign. Out of a smart half-sister to Ascot Gold Cup-placed Forgotten Rules, his high-class Longchamp runner-up effort in September has received many boosts with, most notably, the winner scoring a wide-margin success in the subsequent Group 1 Prix Royal-Oak. Race-fit Sunchart is capable and won a Listed race in March but might struggle to beat the selection racing from level-weights. Three-year-old London City is clearly progressive and has just 4lb to find with the selection on adjusted ratings, but nonetheless faces a much stiffer task than when winning a recent Chester handicap.

LONDON CITY's form is on an upward curve so Aidan O'Brien's Justify colt can take this step up in class in his stride and complete his hat-trick. The returning Harbour Wind has the form to play a big part and is next best ahead of in-form pair Serious Challenge and Esquiline.

An improving type, LONDON CITY can get the better of his older rivals, several of whom are penalised for previous wins at this level.

After a promising racecourse debut, EVE'S BOY makes the most compelling case. Michael Dods' charge showed his inexperience when second over 6f at Carlisle, having been slowly away from the stalls, and he can go one better with that experience under his belt. Big Cyril is another with a taste of racecourse action and may be the biggest danger to the selection following his third over 7f at Yarmouth. The drop to 6f is a positive, while newcomer Uncle Don, a half-brother to Group 2-placed juvenile Malc, is also noted.

EVE'S BOY found only an odds-on poke too strong on debut at Carlisle on debut last month and with improvement on the cards, this looks a good opportunity to go a place better for the in-form Michael Dods yard. Big Cyril showed plenty of ability when third first time up and he looks the obvious one for the forecast, with Uncle Don making most paper appeal of the newcomers.

Who knows what lurks amongst the newcomers but EVE'S BOY pushed a good horse close at Carlisle and he's preferred to Big Cyril.

Having showed a good attitude when making all over 5f at Catterick earlier this month, Tatterstall is likely to be well found in the market, but a 7lb rise for that display looks harsh. Preference is for RUSSET GOLD, who was last seen finishing a close-up third over 6f at Ascot last month and, with the step back to 5f looking like it will be no hinderance, Roger Varian's charge can return to winning ways off 2lb higher. Zarzyni shaped like he was still in form when finishing mid-division in a warm Hamilton handicap recently and he can prove best of the rest.

A chance is taken on GOOD EARTH, who's slipped to a good mark and took another step back in the right direction at Windsor 12 days ago, despite not being seen to best effect. Russet Gold made a promising return to action when third at Ascot just over 6 weeks ago, while Spirit of Applause and Tatterstall are others in the mix in an interesting sprint handicap.

Roger Varian's RUSSET GOLD (nap) appeals as the sort to do well in 2024 and can build on his Ascot third to bag a second C&D win.

The Irish 2000 Guineas form could be the key to this race, with preference for the Aidan O'Brien-trained RIVER TIBER. The son of Wootton Bassett finished just over a length behind Haatem (second), but that was his first run of the campaign and, like many of his stablemates this week, he ought to take a big step forward from that effort. This could possibly be his ideal trip after running well at the top level over sprint distances as a juvenile. As for the latter, he makes his fourth start of the year having improved plenty from his juvenile campaign and he commands the utmost respect, despite dropping back in trip and giving away a 3lb penalty for his Craven success. Of the remainder, the progressive Never So Brave makes the most appeal after his impressive victory in a handicap at Chester last month.

On 3 lb better terms RIVER TIBER is taken to turn around Irish 2000 Guineas form with Haatem, particularly as it's possible Aidan O'Brien's colt will come on for that reappearance. Task Force, Never So Brave and Kikkuli can fight it out for minor money in a strong renewal of this Group 3.

Old rivals RIVER TIBER and Haatem meet for the third time and, receiving 3lb, Aidan O'Brien's high-class colt can come out on top.

Charlie Luciano came out best in a three-way photo at Fairyhouse, but the margin of victory was such that a 4lb rise could find him out. El C Wells also prevailed only narrowly on her debut for Paul Mulligan at Navan, whereas NUMIDIA had six lengths to spare over the runner-up when triumphant at Fairyhouse. He clearly relished the half-mile rise to 1m4f that day, and this slightly extra yardage shouldn't inconvenience him at all in his follow-up mission.

CHARLIE LUCIANO showed a good attitude to prevail at Fairyhouse last time and, having gone up 4 lb, he's worth a chance to follow up from the front again. Fellow last-time-out winners Numidia and El C Wells are obvious dangers and Gordons Aura is one to consider back on the level.

Three last-time-out winners clash. NUMIDIA bolted up at Fairyhouse and may cope with a 12lb rise

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

NORTH VIEW showed improvement in first-time cheekpieces when filling the runner-up spot at Kempton and he is just 1lb higher for that effort. The son of Expert Eye makes only his seventh career start and he could be the one to beat. Wonder Smile took a big leap forward after being gelded when second at Salisbury and he would be foolish to overlook off a 2lb higher mark. Treasure Time is another to keep a close eye on.

WONDER SMILE looked ahead of his mark when second at Salisbury last time and he can prove the point here. It's a strong race for the grade, with several having potential, and both Treasure Time and North View are likely to feature.

The vote goes to NORTH VIEW who seems to be steadily returning to form and will be suited by drying ground.

16:40 Limerick Maiden 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

MONT ST MICHEL has a similar profile to Sara Valentina which won another such designed-to-be-weak course maiden recently and today's selection is also allowed compete, despite being very much unexposed. By Galileo and out of an American Grade 1 winning mare, the selection is clearly no star and showed only mild promise when beaten 18 lengths by high-class Illinois on debut but finished his race reasonably well, should progress and this race is weak. If the selection fails to perform in first-time tongue-tie and blinkers, Gangster Granny might pick up the pieces being race-fit and having run well here when rated 59 ten days ago. Viyanni showed mild promise at Fairyhouse while Fighter finished behind his stablemate selection last year.

GANGSTER GRANNY holds the clear edge on form so is taken to gain her first victory at the chief expense of fair hurdles scorer Bukhill who could build on his recent Fairyhouse eighth. Viyanni and Winning Smut appeal as the pick of the remainder for minor honours.

MONT ST MICHEL can show improvement from his sole run last year and get off the mark, with a tongue-tie and blionkers to help.

16:45 Ayr Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Jordan Electrics has won three of his last four starts and this progressive type won more cosily than the half-length winning distance may suggest last time over 6f at Hamilton. Jim Goldie's gelding is likely to run well again, but the preference is for MOON FLIGHT. The four-year-old finished six lengths in front of the aforementioned runner on his most recent outing over 5f at Hamilton and he can confirm that form off 3lb better terms. Alligator Alley returns to a tempting mark and he completes the shortlist.

ALLIGATOR ALLEY hasn't won for a while, though is normally competing at a higher level and could be worth chancing in this company. That said, the thriving Jordan Electrics cannot be taken lightly. whilst Moon Flight didn't enjoy the clearest of passages at Hamilton last time and also enters considerations.

The thriving Jordan Electrics is high on the list but MOON FLIGHT's peak AW form this year brings him right into the picture.

Despite doing plenty wrong throughout the race, DURAN went on to score cosily over 6f at Brighton earlier this month and, stepping back down to 5f off a workable mark for his handicap debut, he gets the vote. Make It Easy encountered traffic problems when finishing fourth over 5f at Musselburgh recently and she can get closer here, while Kings Merchant completes the shortlist dropping to the minimum trip on the back of a game victory off 2lb lower over 6f at Thirsk most recently.

NAZRON confirmed his previous promise when opening his account in good style at Lingfield back in October and appeals as the type to win more races this season, so he earns the vote. Kings Merchant impressed with his attitude at Thirsk on his most recent outing and is feared most ahead of Make It Easy.

In a competitive sprint MAKE IT EASY earns narrow preference over Kings Merchant but most of the runners are feasible winners.

17:05 Ascot Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Saint Lawrence started at odds of 22/1 when winning this contest last year and is a prime example of how this race can be a minefield for punters, but, given Apollo One (runner-up) and Juan Les Pins (third) have also gone up in the weights, he still offers some value in trying to emulate Rohaan, who landed back-to-back wins in the two previous editions. Albasheer drops in class but was notably well held in this 12 months ago and again carries risk. Therefore, perhaps Mums Tipple, off 4lb lower after finishing fourth to Archie Watson's gelding, could reverse that form. However, DARK TROOPER, a dual C&D winner when trained by Ed Walker, may be the way to go for win only purposes, given he is a proven course specialist who is still on an upwards trajectory.

Plenty in with a shout but it could pay to side with ALBASHEER who remains on an attractive mark despite scoring twice this term on the AW at Newcastle and should find this stiff 6f right up his street. Richard Fahey's Strike Red is another who should be suited by conditions and he is next on the list after an encouraging Epsom fifth. Unequal Love and Ferrous both command plenty of respect too, with Glenfinnan completing the shortlist in a typically ultra-competitive Wokingham.

The ability to act on fast ground is crucial and ALBASHEER (nap) has a good deal in his favour on his best 6f form last year.

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

Lily Hart will no doubt improve for last month's reappearance when finding one too good over 1m2f. The Ballydoyle filly should be bang there at the finish, but YES OUI SI may edge this having posted her best effort so far when upped to 1m4f at the Curragh, finishing a respectable third. Dark Oak is another going the right way judged on last week's placed effort at Fairyhouse and is preferred of the rest.

LILY HART left her 2-y-o debut effort well behind upped to 1¼m in a maiden at the Curragh last month and, with further improvement likely now that she takes another step up in trip, the Galileo filly will take plenty of stopping. Dark Oak could be the one for the forecast, albeit Yes Oui Si also commands respect.

LILY HART almost justified favouritism in a Curragh maiden over 1m2f. She can improve from that and score up to this trip.

SINGLE made an excellent return to action when scoring by just under a length at Nottingham earlier in the month and a 3lb rise for that success might prove to be lenient. Jack Channon's mare is a previous C&D winner and could be hard to beat again. Expressionless got his head back in front at Nottingham and should remain competitive off a 3lb higher rating, while Lunar Shadow is another to note after her Lingfield triumph.

A few with chances but EXPRESSIONLESS looks to have more to offer as a stayer so is taken to defy a 3 lb weight rise and follow up his recent Nottingham success, The handily-weighted Star Legend heads the list of dangers, although Mountain Road, Lunar Shadow and Single can all have a say too in an intriguing handicap.

This looks tricky, including tactically, but the last-time-out turf winners EXPRESSIONLESS and Single could be the two to focus on.

MASTER DUNRAVEN raced from well off the pace and met some interference at Fairyhouse last month and should be suited by reverting to this distance. His only win was indeed gained over that same 1m2f distance, but having been outpaced at Fairyhouse, was also hampered three furlongs out before staying on reasonably well to finish a never-nearer sixth. Three-year-old Rapid Mission races against older horses for the first time but showed some promise on his seasonal reappearance recently. By Frankel, his juvenile form was useful and could be suited by stepping up to this distance. Black Soul is ideally suited by conditions and but is nonetheless long absent.

This looks wide open so it could be worth siding with Joseph O'Brien's son of Frankel RAPID MISSION who is fancied to take a step forward from his reappearance Navan fifth with this step up in trip also a likely plus. Fairyhouse-fourth Out On Friday is next on the list with Inchiquin Star and Master Dunraven also in the picture.

OUT ON FRIDAY gets the vote on the back of a fine run over further at Fairyhouse last week and seems sure to make a bold bid

After being only narrowly touched off over 7f at Leicester last time, this appears to be a good opportunity for MOON MAN to go one better. David O'Meara's charge was beaten just a neck on that occasion and raised just 1lb, he looks capable of shedding the maiden tag. The hat-trick seeking Mereside Madness is feared most but he may struggle to defy an 6lb rise for his Newcastle success in February, while Eminent Jewel also won last time at Wetherby and isn't easily discounted.

EMINENT JEWEL did well under the circumstances when making a winning return at Wetherby 19 days ago, scoring cosily despite having been slowly away, so she is taken to continue her progress to follow up. Gundogan also improved on his reappearance and is feared most as he makes his second handicap start, ahead of Moon Man.

A small field but still plenty of interest. EMINENT JEWEL won well at Wetherby this month and she can defy her 4lb rise in the weights.

RED FORCE ONE readily pulled clear when scoring over 2m at Musselburgh last week and, though the step back in trip doesn't look to be the obvious move, a 3lb rise for that dominant display appears lenient. Sam Sarphati took advantage of a tumbling mark when running out a game winner over 2m1f at Pontefract latest and is entitled to respect, for all that a 3lb rise demands more of him. Michael's Pledge is also considered now sporting cheekpieces for the first time.

SAM SARPHATI led home some in-form rivals when opening his account at Pontefract recently and, given his low-mileage profile, a 3 -lb rise may not be enough to prevent the follow up in a race containting plenty of dead wood. Red Force One isn't anywhere near the force of old but is still respected as a last-time-out scorer, while Carlton might be the one to fill the place providing his stamina holds out (unproven beyond 12.5f).

The vote goes to SAM SARPHATI, who took his form up a notch when scoring at Pontefract and remains unexposed as a stayer.

After a bloodless success over 1m2f at Windsor last time, APPROVAL could be anything and this exciting proposition could make a mockery of an opening handicap mark of 90. William Haggas' charge barely saw another rival on that occasion and showed a likeable attitude to race clear in the closing stages, looking better the further he went. The main danger could be fellow prominent racer Hand Of God, who justified a short price to win the Esher Cup over 1m at Sandown in April and will likely appreciate this extra yardage. The hat-trick seeking Old Faithful appears to be Aidan O'Brien's first string, while stablemate Cambridge returns to handicap company after running with credit in Group company. Andrew Balding saddled Foxes Tales to victory in 2021 and he's represented by Portsmouth.

There was a lot to like about the way PRIMO LARA came clear at York last time and he's selected to defy another rise in the weights. The draw could have been kinder to Hand of God but it looks like he's been saved for this since his Esher Cup success so he's still second choice ahead of Palace Green and Approval.

A great deal is in place for HAND OF GOD to run well and the fast ground earns him preference over Dambuster and Nerano.

MAGICAL ZOE proved herself to not be out of place in Listed company when finishing fifth on her first start on the Flat at Cork last time. Henry De Bromhead's classy hurdler will find this a lot easier and she looks difficult to oppose. The main threat might be Neptunes Staircase, who has finished second on his last three starts when competing in maiden company, although Stariam has also knocked hard on the door and should break through sooner rather than later.

It's hard to look beyond MAGICAL ZOE, a smart hurdler who didn't shape at all badly on debut in this sphere in a listed race at Cork. Nucky Johnson is taken to follow the selection home, with both Stariam and Neptunes Staircase likely to be on the premises, too.

Henry de Bromhead set the bar high for smart hurdler MAGICAL ZOE(nap) on her first Flat run and she can avail of this drop in class

Iron Lion struck by a length in this grade over 1m4f at Haydock earlier in the month and he is 5lb higher for that triumph up in trip, so he holds an obvious chance. However, the vote goes to BAILEYS KHELSTAR, who made every yard of the running over 2m at Ascot last time and the four-year-old may have been worth more than the winning margins suggests. The son of Sea The Stars can land the hat-trick, while Ayr Poet is another to consider.

DIVINA GRACE wasn't at her best when fourth to Iron Lion at Haydock a fortnight ago but, now 6 lb better off with David O'Meara's representative, it would be no surprise were she to turn the tables this time. Iron Lion should make his presence felt once more but bigger threats may be posed by the hat-trick seeking Baileys Khelstar and Island Brave, who has dipped to an attractive mark.

Topweight IRON LION has a progressive profile and is taken to make it three wins from his last four starts.

TRIBAL WISDOM was only narrowly beaten on the Polytrack here on his penultimate start and should he put the disappointment of last month's fifth over the extended 1m4f at Chester behind him, he should take some stopping. Ian Williams' charge has been eased 1lb by the handicapper and is taken to go well. Charlie's Choice (second) and Morcar (third) are closely matched on their meeting here a fortnight ago and can also get involved.

TRIBAL WISDOM was unsuited by the way things developed at Chester last time and he'd been in good order on the AW prior to that, so he makes most appeal. Charlie's Choice and Morcar both arrive on the back of solid efforts and look feasible dangers.

A trappy race that could turn tactical. CHARLIE'S CHOICE ran well here last time and looks to have as good a chance as any.

Edna E Mode (third) finished a length and a half in front of Bayadere (fourth) when they clashed over 1m2f at Lingfield and can at least be expected to uphold that form over this longer trip. The class-dropping Across Earth is also considered.

MY DREAM WORLD was still green but showed much improved form when runner-up at this C&D on his return, pulling clear of the remainder, so he looks to hold leading claims of going one better. Across Earth had been going the right way prior to his latest start, so he's not written off having been gelded, with Edna E Mode completing the shortlist.

Having gone close over C&D a fortnight ago on his second start, MY DREAM WORLD is taken to go one better.

Dawn Rising won this last year for Joseph O'Brien and is back for more, but he has raced five times since without success. Ryan Moore was aboard the son of Galileo 12 months ago but switches to QUEENSTOWN for Aidan O'Brien and, if the younger gelding stays the trip, his one-length second to Kyprios at Leopardstown last month gives him the edge at these weights with every chance there is more to come. Uxmal has to be taken seriously, as does Fasol, a rare runner on the Flat for top NH trainer Paul Nicholls.

The traditional Royal Ascot finale is run over the longest distance in the Flat calendar and it's TASHKHAN who gets the nod to come out on top provided he's ready to roll on return. The main threat may emerge from Queenstown, who has taken his form up a level this season and is Aidan O'Brien's sole representative, while last year's first and third in this Dawn Rising and Run For Oscar can do battle for minor honours in what is a truly unique test.

Last year's first and third - Dawn Rising and Run For Oscar - are feared but POSTILEO is a very viable alternative.

Group 2 winner AZURE BLUE was a disappointing favourite in a Listed contest at Haydock last month, but she can be forgiven for that effort as conditions possibly weren't in her favour. Michael Dods' mare is a class act on her day and she could prove very hard to beat on this quicker surface, with her main threat possibly being Beautiful Diamond. The daughter of Twilight Son finished fifth in the Temple Stakes at Haydock last time and has to be respected. Graceful Thunder may pick up the pieces of the remainder.

BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND came up short in the Temple Stakes but she should prove hard to beat back down in class and returned to the scene of her success in the Rosebery here last September. Azure Blue is the clear main danger, for all that she has a fair bit to prove following a couple of low-key efforts, while Pepsi Cat is third choice ahead of Graceful Thunder.

Azure Blue and Pepsi Cat are high on the list but this is a drop in class for BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND (nap) and she can capitalise.

FORGE VALLEY LAD is on a tempting mark judged on the pick of his all-weather form here. David Simcock's charge hasn't shown the same form as last year, but this return 1m4f and switch to turf might just suit. Gallimimus performed with credit when second over 1m4f at Brighton earlier this month and he isn't ruled out, while Hill Station is also worthy of consideration.

GALLIMIMUS reacted well to blinkers when second at Brighton last time and he's well treated on the form he showed for George Boughey, so he takes preference over Major Major, who is becoming well treated. Story Horse is also a player back down in trip.

Top of the list is GALLIMIMUS, who returned to form with a front-running second at Brighton and is a big player if he can back that up.

Lil Guff (fifth) and Thunder Star (fourth) are closely matched based on their encounter at Ascot last month but, armed with a 4lb pull in the weights, the former rates the chief threat to the selection. The returning Dolly Gray also enters calculations.

LIL GUFF produced her best effort of the season so far when third at Sandown 8 days ago, doing well having raced up with the pace, so she is taken to build on that effort to return to winning ways. The main danger could be Thunder Star, who bumped into an improver at this C&D on her latest outing, ahead of Star of Lady M.

Jim Goldie's six-year-old only has a 4lb higher rating to contend with and he looks the one to beat. B Associates produced a bit of a shock when going in by a neck at Carlisle earlier in the month and he would be foolish to dismiss off 4lb higher, while Cavalier Approach is an interesting contender in first-time blinkers.

Down in the weights and eased in class, BE PROUD could be the way to go. He hasn't fired the last twice but shaped well on his first two starts of the campaign and is now 1 lb lower compared to when striking here towards the end of last season. Cavalier Approach and Black Friday may emerge as the main threats, for all that last-time-out winners B Associates and Classy Al will have their supporters.

Jim Goldie saddles two with good chances but their former stablemate B ASSOCIATES may have their measure today.

THREE DONS stands out on form after his improved showing to win at Leicester a week ago and he's preferred to fellow last-time-out winner Thursday. Most of the others have something to prove but Damoiseau is likely to feature if he can back up his latest effort.

INTRUSIVELY chased home a promising type at Nottingham on his racecourse bow last week and is a highly appealing option stepping up in trip after a relatively quick turnaround. King Of Angels is another with a serious chance, especially given how well advertised his first run at Chester has become since. Slightly disappointing at the same venue last month, the Hugo Palmer-trained colt does need to up the ante now he goes a furlong further. Victory Sound and Canvas rate the pick of the rest.

This can go the way of INTRUSIVELY, who finished well clear of the rest when second at Nottingham on debut and is open to progress over this longer trip. Next best could be High On Hope, who has run to a fair level when placing on both of his starts so far, while King of Angels remains with potential given the promise of his first outing.

Ed Bethell's INTRUSIVELY sets the bar pretty high on the back of his recent 6f debut second.

The hat-trick seeking Lord Abama hasn't looked back since sporting blinkers the last twice and cannot be overlooked in a bid to defy a 4lb rise for a ready win at Thirsk recently.

SACRED FALLS was a decisive winner in first-time cheekpieces at Carlisle last month and did well to finish as close as he did, all things considered, when third at Hamilton recently. He gets the nod ahead of the hat-trick seeking Lord Abama, who remains on a workable mark and won't go down without a fight. Rory is best of the rest.

Blinkers have turned things around for LORD ABAMA and he can complete his hat-trick. Sacred Falls can chase him home.

Those with experience don't set the bar high so this has the look of a race which could go to a newcomer, with Ollie Sangster's GLAMIS ROAD preferred to Archie Watson's Enchanted Way before any betting clues are known. Make Love and Jane Garfield look best of those who have seen the track.

Tristan Davidson's charge showed a likeable attitude when scoring over 7f in handicap company at Wolverhampton last month and another prominent showing looks imminent. Miss Calculation sprung something of a surprise when winning over this trip at Catterick recently, and she is entitled to go well again. Haalim was too keen for his own good when finishing down the field over an extended mile at Wolverhampton latest, but can give a better account back in distance.

A 2 lb rise for COCONUT BAY's Wolverhampton success looks very fair indeed and she is taken to strike again, perhaps at the chief expense of Moondial and Big Blue Boy.

Moondial ran well in a stronger race nine days ago but COCONUT BAY is preferred now tackling 7f for the first time on grass.

20:00 Lingfield Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

SHIBUYA STORM outran her huge odds when finishing third on her debut at Yarmouth earlier in the month and she would have learned a great deal from that experience. With normal improvement, she ought to go close. Sense Of Spirit showed plenty of speed when attempting to make all over 7f at Catterick on her first start and this drop in trip looks a good move. Flying Star rates best of the rest.

SENSE OF SPIRIT made a promising start when fourth at Catterick so looks the way to go with progress very much on the cards. Yarmouth debut third Shibuya Storm is fancied to chase home Kevin Ryan's filly ahead of Flying Star.

Kevin Ryan's filly SENSE OF SPIRIT set a pretty honest pace over 7f on her recent debut and may be able to dominate here.

20:15 Haydock Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

A small field may see this turn tactical and if that is the case, Middlesex may be able to take them along from the start and can set her own pace. She won't be easy to catch but BLUE COLLAR travelled well at Goodwood before being sent to the front, only to be overhauled late on, and if he is held up longer, he could go one better. Carpathian and Straight A may fight it out for third.

BLUE COLLAR put up a career-best effort in first-blinkers when finishing runner-up at Goodwood last week and he's fancied to go a place better here at the expense of Straight A, who was very well backed when failing to meet expectations at Beverley last month but is worth another chance. Middlesex can fill out third.

With the blinkers retained, BLUE COLLAR could well build on his Goodwood effort. Middlesex is second choice.

20:30 Lingfield Stakes (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

RUN JOY RUN started off the year in really good form on the all-weather, springing a surprise at Kempton and ending a sequence of four good handicap performances with a third on the Polytrack here. She has been freshened up and needs to transfer that ability to turf but, if she does, she will be hard to beat. Forgotten Treasure has been edging closer to that elusive first success and reappears less than a week after a narrow Doncaster defeat. Brinton is also capable of making an impact.

FORGOTTEN TREASURE deserves extra credit for her good recent Doncaster second given she forfeited ground at the start and William Knight's filly can gain a deserved maiden success here. Another Jack appeals as the one to chase her home with this step back up in trip a plus ahead of the returning Run Joy Run.

This looks good for FORGOTTEN TREASURE (nap), who ran well in defeat when upped to 7f for a recent Doncaster handicap.

20:45 Haydock Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Siam Fox has won over this trip three times, including last time out at Windsor when bursting back into life. He can mount another challenge but a chance is taken on TROPEZ POWER, who ran on well for third at Beverley off 1lb higher and steps back up to a mile, with Joe Leavy claiming a useful 5lb. Evocative Spark and Hat Toss both have recent placed form and might prove best of the rest.

HAT TOSS has been running well in recent weeks and can take advantage of some leniency by the handicapper to get his head in front for the first time this season. Tropez Power and Evocative Spark also arrive on the back of good placed efforts and are others to consider in a competitive-looking finale.

The vote goes to HAT TOSS, who has solid turf form for his new yard. Tropez Power is second choice.

21:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Those who took the odds-on about FIVE WINDS never had a moment's worry at Yarmouth, although she didn't really have much to beat. Even so, Jack Jones' filly will have boosted her confidence by getting off the mark and can follow up. Arlecchino's Gift has been on the go for quite some time, but showed no signs of it catching up with him when successful over C&D. San Francisco Bay, another previous track-and-trip winner, is worth considering, while little separated So Sleepy and Lahina Bay at Goodwood.

SAN FRANCISCO BAY has cheekpieces back on for the first time since his win here last summer and might be able to get his head back in front. Five Winds is second choice ahead of Lahina Bay, who has returned to the mark she defied at Salisbury in September.

The vote goes to FIVE WINDS, who is unexposed on turf and found plenty of improvement with her emphatic win at Yarmouth ten days ago.

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.
