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

MIMI KAKUSHI took a step forward when finishing in fourth over 6f at Newmarket on her most recent outing, and the daughter of Galileo Gold gets a tentative vote in a trappy contest. She was beaten by Flag Of St George on that occasion, who was deemed good enough for the Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Lady Of Africa sports first-time blinkers following a disappointing run in France earlier this month, while the unraced Sometimes A Lady also warrants a market check.

Worthwhile form is thin on the ground in this seller but a repeat of MIMI KAKUSHI's fourth-placed finish in novice company at Newmarket last month may well suffice. Lady of Africa is feared most unless there's market support for either newcomer.

This looks a great opportunity for MIMI KAKUSHI whose form stands head and shoulders above the others with experience.

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

Dicey Rielly finished a creditable second over an extended 3m at Aintree earlier this month and Peter Bowen's inmate commands respect off the same mark, but she has to shoulder top-weight here. Therefore, MERVEILLO gets the vote. The gelded son of Archipenko is rated 1lb higher following a decent run to fill the runner-up spot over an extended 2m7f at Uttoxeter last month and is taken to build on that promising effort. Jimvale is another to consider following a fair third at Southwell recently.

DICEY RIELLY has been in fine form since returning from a break and is able to race from the same mark as when chasing home an impressive winner at Aintree last week. She makes the most appeal. Merveillo and Tara Brooch are dangers.

Progressive mare DICEY RIELLY is 3lb ahead of the handicapper after her good effort in defeat at Aintree a week ago.

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

Only narrowly denied at Southwell on her most recent outing in February, COAXING rates the one to beat if transferring that all-weather form to turf. She is rated 2lb above her last winning mark and, with further progression likely, she's taken to get the better of the class-dropping Kodebreaker. Alseeyerthere remains unexposed and can build on a fair fourth at Doncaster earlier this month.

MARTIN'S BRIG was unlucky not to win at this track last month, and granted better luck in-running this time, David Thompson's charge can gain compensation dropped back down to 7f. Fiftyshadesofred has tumbled in the weights, and he could emerge as the main danger, with the promising Conor Planas booked to ride. Coaxing and Alseeyerthere can fight out third spot.

Although a win around here for Martin's Brig would be deserved, ALSEEYERTHERE looks well worth this quick return to 7f.

The retained booking of Harry Cobden on Vision Of Hope merits respect, but she is rated 3lb higher following a six-length defeat over C&D on her most recent run. Therefore, it could pay to side with GREEN OR BLACK, who took a big step forward when seeing off Lucky Draw (second) over 2m at Uttoxeter earlier this month. A 7lb rise may not be enough to stop her securing a double, but Daniel Bourne's six-year-old can give her plenty to think about again and is slightly better off at the weights with the winner for that one-length defeat.

LUCKY DRAW has been hit with a 6 lb rise for her fine run behind veteran Green or Black at Uttoxeter but looks sure to win races in this sphere and might be up to reversing the form with Neil Mulholland's charge. Karannelle's turn might be getting nearer also.

Unlucky to encounter Green Or Black in a very determined mood at Uttoxeter this month, LUCKY DRAW can go one better here.

This represents a good opportunity for OKEANOS to regain the winning thread and Ivan Furtado's four-year-old can take advantage of a drop in trip. He is 3lb above his last winning mark and rates a solid contender. Biplane finished a fair fourth over a mile at Ayr earlier this month and is feared most, while Kats Bob completes the shortlist.

This can go the way of OKEANOS, who was ultimately found out by the longer trip having refused to settle at Wolverhampton just under 8 weeks ago2, but back down in distance and having a first start on turf, Ivan Furtado's 4-y-o can get back to winning ways. Like A Lion has been given a chance by the handicapper so he's put forward as the main threat back at 7f, with Key Look taken to fill out third spot.

Two back down to winning marks who were also both unlucky in the run last time, KATS BOB is narrowly preferred to Darbucks.

PORTA FORTUNA showed a pleasing attitude to make a successful start to her career at the Curragh and then made it two out of two when gamely holding off Navassa Island in a Group 3 at Naas. The daughter of Caravaggio should continue to progress, although the runner-up was making her debut on that occasion so will be a big danger again. Newmarket winner Jabaara is a contender for a trainer who knows what it takes to land this prize, while Aidan O'Brien was victorious with Meditate 12 months ago and has another likely candidate in Curragh scorer Matrika. Impressive Doncaster winner Carla's Way and Soprano, who did it well at Newmarket, are a couple more to consider.

CARLA'S WAY created an excellent impression when justifying favouritism on her Doncaster debut and, with the runner-up going on to frank the form in a big way, she makes plenty of appeal now stepping up in grade. Of the opposition, Jabaara was value for considerably more at Newmarket and is open to oodles of improvement, while Soprano and Navassa Island are others that look capable of making an impact.

This looks a strong Albany. JABAARA was good value for her winning margin at Newmarket and she's preferred to Persian Dreamer.

Only narrowly denied over 2m4f at Fakenham on his most recent outing, SCUDAMORE rates the one to beat in a contest lacking depth. A stiffer stamina test may not be enough to hold him back given he kept on well during that contest and he is fancied to get the better of the unexposed Matoury. Man Of Riddles looks the pick of the remainder.

A poor round of jumping prevented SCUDAMORE following up his Stratford success at Fakenham last time, but this looks a good opportunity to make amends providing his stamina holds out (unproven beyond 2½m). San Fermin is feared most, though a market move for Ballylinch, who has the assistance of Brian Hughes, would be noteworthy.

The one with least to prove here is SCUDAMORE, who won a handicap in April and now returns to novice company.

ROCKONMECCA ran her best race to date when beaten just under two lengths at Ripon earlier in the month, and the combination of a 1lb drop and first-time blinkers may see Michael Dods' filly gain a first success. Bay Of Hope was an eye-catcher when staying on into fifth on the all-weather in January and he's feared most now switched to turf. Senseofentitlement completes the shortlist.

ROCKONMECCA went close to opening her account in first-time headgear when third at Ripon earlier this month and this represents a good opportunity for Michael Dods's filly to come out on top with blinkers the equipment of choice this time around. Senseofentitlement turned in his best effort of the season at Beverley recently, so he heads up the opposition, ahead of the returning Bay of Hope.

The choice is ROCKONMECCA who has run well in all three handicaps since returning in April and should be suited by the return to 7f.

LITTLE BIG BEAR put his 2000 Guineas disappointment behind him when recording a comfortable success in the Sandy Lane at Haydock and Aidan O'Brien's classy sprinter, who was mightily impressive in the Phoenix Stakes last season, is difficult to oppose back at the top table. Sakheer can resume his progression down in trip, having finished ahead of the selection at Newmarket, while Cheveley Park heroine Lezoo should not be underestimated with her fillies' allowance. Shaquille made it four on the trot when claiming Listed honours at Newbury and the progressive colt looks worth a crack at this level, while others to note include Ocean Quest and Shouldvebeenaring.

The outstanding juvenile of 2022, LITTLE BIG BEAR returned lame in the 2000 Guineas but he was expertly prepared to land the Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock and he's a high-class sprinter who will take all the beating. Several of these revert back to 6f having tackled a Guineas, with Sakheer expected to regain the progressive thread, while Shaquille boasts a slightly different profile in that he's improved by the run and his limit has not yet been established.

Little Big Bear commands major respect but there are plausible alternatives. LEZOO is first choice, ahead of Ocean Quest.

Rory And Me (second) and PILEUP (third) were closely matched when meeting over C&D a fortnight ago, but the result of that contest may have been different had the latter jumped the final flight better. With that in mind, there is every chance Mark Walford's gelding could reverse the form and get his head in front for the first time. Headscarf Lil benefited from wind surgery when scoring here last month and she can enter the reckoning.

PILEUP shaped well when third over C&D a fortnight ago and it's not out of the question he could have a bit more to offer given his low-mileage profile, so he earns the vote. Rory And Me and More To Follow head the opposition.

Daragh Bourke's MORE TO FOLLOW has shown improvement at around 2m lately and today's longer trip might prompt a breakthrough win.

BARYSHNIKOV looked a winner in waiting judged on his luckless passage at Ripon earlier this month, and a first triumph of the season appears a distinct possibility off only 1lb higher. Wild Side continued her fine form when successful on her handicap debut at Catterick last month and isn't taken lightly in her quest to land a hat-trick. Mahanakhon also commands attention.

BARYSHNIKOV looked unlucky not to win when runner-up at Ripon last time, finishing well having been held up in a steadily-run race, and he can make amends this time around. Wild Side arrives bidding for a hat-trick and isn't taken lightly, while Mahanakhon can also give another good account.

George Boughey's WILD SIDE has improved by the run this term and is taken to complete her hat-trick with the step up to 1m also a plus

Things appeared to finally click for Al Nafir when registering his first triumph on the turf in the Old Rowley Cup at Newmarket in October and is one to note on his return to action, despite facing a 10lb rise in the handicap. Preference, however, is for the progressive TEUMESSIAS FOX, who has proved a different proposition since undergoing a gelding operation. Andrew Balding's four-year-old will need to overcome a 7lb increase in the ratings after an authoritative display at Newmarket, but looks capable of doing so. Nagano may have a lengthy layoff to contend with, but is an intriguing contender given what he achieved in 2021. His stablemate Aimeric is another to consider on the back of a Doncaster triumph.

TEUMESSIAS FOX has been much improved this season and, having had something to spare when scoring at Newmarket last time, he makes plenty of appeal with further progress on the cards. Al Nafir is an obvious player if tuned up for his return and Okita Soushi looks a notable Irish challenger.

It was 2008 when this race was last won from a single-figure draw. Top of the list are HMS PRESIDENT, Al Nafir and Maksud.

ILE DE JERSEY ran well over hurdles when returning from a break at Aintree last month and the five-year-old remains unexposed on just her fourth outing over fences. Jemima P bounced back to fill the runner-up spot at Aintree when attempting to make every yard of the running and a similar display here would put her right in the mix. Others for the shortlist include Fix At All and Northern Bound.

JEMIMA P is a lightly-raced 9-y-o who looked as good as ever when runner-up at Aintree last month and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see her resume winning ways. Francky du Berlais is interesting back down markedly in trip after a break, with Fix At All, who's been in good nick in hunters, completing the shortlist.

12yo AND THE NEW seemed to enjoy a new lease of life when fitted with cheekpieces last month, and he remains very well handicapped.

Liseo hasn't appeared the most straightforward of geldings this season and although the four-year-old is likely to be involved on this switch to novice company, it may pay to take him on with the lightly-raced FLYING FRONTIER. James Tate's colt showed the benefit of his debut second at Newcastle in March when winning a maiden at Carlisle earlier this month, and he's taken to defy a 7lb penalty. Iron Lion is 7lb better off with the selection for a two-length defeat and is the main danger.

Having shown plenty when runner-up on debut, FLYING FRONTIER went one better at Carlisle at the beginning of the month and he can score again with the further step up in trip to suit. Liseo wasted no time getting back to form on his latest outing and could be the main danger, ahead of Iron Lion.

It will be no surprise if FLYING FRONTIER repeats his Carlisle superiority over Iron Lion despite the 7lb worse terms.

TAHIYRA lost her unbeaten record when going down by half a length to Mawj in the 1000 Guineas at Newmarket, with the pair well clear, but got a Classic victory on her CV when accounting for Meditate in the Irish version. Dermot Weld's top-class filly will be a warm order here and should be able to add a third Group 1 to her tally. She also had Meditate trailing in her wake in last year's Moyglare, but Aidan O'Brien's Breeders' Cup heroine could still be dangerous after taking a step forward at the Curragh. Further progression cannot be ruled out for Queen For You, who was pipped by Sounds Of Heaven at York but is out of a mare who won this for the Gosden team.

TAHIYRA is the class act here and likely has an even bigger performance in her so she's very hard to get away from. Queen For You was edged out by Sounds of Heaven at York but can improve past her and could be the danger as she attempts to emulate her dam, who won this in 2012.

The late defection of 1,000 Guineas winner Mawj leaves the door wide open for TAHIYRA. Second choice is Queen For You.

MARAJMAN justified favouritism on the switch to fences over C&D a fortnight ago and a 6lb rise might not be enough to prevent Charles & Adam Pogson's gelding from going in again. Izzy's Champion posted another solid effort in defeat when finishing third at Perth last month and rates the chief threat now off 1lb lower, while High Noon has recorded two of his three successes at this course and warrants respect.

This looks a decent opportunity for MARAJMAN to land a second C&D win of the month. Izzy's Champion is by far the most solid proposition of the remainder.

This can go to IZZY'S CHAMPION (nap), who has made the frame on his last five appearances, including a good second here in March.

IN THE TRENCHES ran an encouraging race on his handicap debut at Chepstow earlier in the month, and he must hold every chance if building on that second-placed effort. Connor Planas' 5lb claim is a major plus and he can see off the likes of Orchestra and Perfect Play, who is better than what he showed at Epsom last time out.

PERFECT PLAY confirmed the promise of his runner-up effort on return when going one better at Chester in May, before probably doing just too much too soon to last home at Epsom a week later. He can leave his latest run behind back down in grade, so is taken to see off the challenge of In The Trenches and Orchestra.

After chasing home subsequent Coventry Stakes third Bucanero Fuerte at the Curragh, STURLASSON then found only Noche Magica too good at Cork, and that winner subsequently went agonisingly close in the Marble Hill. Kieran Cotter's juvenile can go one better on the assumption that he doesn't meet anything of that calibre here but, if he does, it could be 160,000-pounds breeze-up purchase Gunzburg, who faded into fourth over 6f on debut. Naas fourth Carnegie Hall rounds out the shortlist.

CARNEGIE HALL and Gunzburg showed promise on debut and might improve past dual runner-up Sturlasson, with the narrow preference for Aidan O'Brien's charge. G'day Mate is a newcomer to monitor in the betting.

The form of the two maidens in which STURLASSON finished runner-up has been boosted since by the winners and he should win.

Coppice disappointed when sent off favourite in the Nell Gwyn, but she made no mistake when winning at Newcastle thereafter. An opening mark of 97 could underestimate the daughter of Kingman and she features prominently in calculations, along with recent Killarney scorer Ma Belle Artiste. Jackie Oh was far from disgraced in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and she merits respect, for all that her current mark doesn't look the most lenient. Chelsea Green is another to note, but marginal preference is for MARKSMAN QUEEN. She lost her unbeaten record at Kempton 16 days ago, but the daughter of Dubawi competes from a handy racing weight today and has further scope to progress now switched to turf. Girl Racer, Dream Of Love and Zouzanna are just a handful of other contenders in a typically wide-open renewal.

The Gosden yard holds a strong hand, with MARKSMAN QUEEN taken to build on an encouraging first effort in handicap company and prove just too strong for stablemate Coppice, who didn't fire when favourite for a Guineas Trial in the spring but has had a confidence booster on AW since and is evidently well regarded. Clounmacon shaped well when just failing to get there on her Curragh handicap debut last month and Johnny Murtagh won this in 2021 so she's on the shortlist along with Chelsea Green.

The step up to 1m could be just what MAGICAL SUNSET (nap) needs. She earns the vote ahead of Breege (second choice) and Coppice.

SIX AND OUT sets a clear standard on his two runner-up efforts in bumpers to date and the five-year-old rates the one to be with on his return from a layoff. Mr Zippi made a fine start to his racing career when winning at Southwell last month, but a 7lb penalty will make life tougher for Sara Ender's charge. Taghadoe has plenty to find with the main protagonists, yet still makes the most appeal of the remaining opposition.

MR ZIPPI is related to the smart (on the Flat) Prince Eiji and opened his account at the first time of asking at Southwell last month, so he's capable of maintaining his unbeaten record despite the penalty. Six And Out is an obvious danger, while Taghadoe should step up on his debut having joined a new stable.

Mr Zippi won in good style at Southwell but preference is for SIX AND OUT, who was second in two deeper races last year.

BIG BABY BULL looks the pick at the weights here and may be able to give young Kyle McHugh his first winner. The Tagula gelding won a similar contest at Tipperary on his penultimate outing and ran well back in handicap company when third at Gowran last time. Any drying of the ground will help as his best form is on a decent surface. Tai Sing Yeh is a consistent performer and looks an obvious danger. He ran well in handicap company when chasing home Master Matt at Fairyhouse last time having been third behind the selection in that Tipperary claimer previously. Is That Love is another who can be given a shout off his rating. He had some decent runs at Dundalk over the winter and makes his first start since early January.

BIG BABY BULL turned in his best effort of the season in a useful contest at Gowran last time so is very much of interest now dropping back down in grade. Is That Love and Tai Sing Yeh are considered the main threats in that order.

Over this shorter trip TAI SING YEH can reverse Tipperary form with Big Baby Bull

Sennockian has displayed a good level of ability in his two starts, while Loaded Gun performed with credit in a competitive Beverley contest. Notta Nother offered encouragement at Sandown and also has to enter the equation.

RAINYNITEINGEORGIA was clear of the remainder when second at Nottingham on debut and might not need to improve to open her account at the second attempt. Loaded Gun looks the main danger on form and Sennockian should be on the premises with track experience to help.

This can go to RAINYNITEINGEORGIA who showed plenty of promise when a clear second behind a nice prospect on her Nottingham debut.

Chief's Will took a step in the right direction when third at Yarmouth last time and he is likely to be in the mix, while Unilateralism and Dashing Dick appeal most of the remainder.

It's not hard to have misgivings where GREG THE GREAT is concerned, given his yo-yo-like profile. That said, if able to bounce back from a low-key recent effort and reproduce something akin to the form he showed at Newbury last month, he will have every chance in this open-looking contest. Chief's Will didn't do much wrong returned to turf last time and he looks a threat, while Dashing Dick and Lost In Time both make some appeal from an each-way perspective.

Crystal Casque is feared but CHIEF'S WILL is also down in grade and gets the nod after a fair run at Yarmouth three weeks ago.

First-time cheekpieces could be what COCO HILL needs to build on a pleasing third over this trip at Tipperary last month and she rates the one to beat.

So Majestic is another with claims in an intriguing handicap.

SNEDDY EDDIE looked reinvented as a sprinter when successful at Sligo last month and his revised mark may well be within reach. So Majestic and Coco Hill are just a couple of potential threats.

KING OF STEEL made up for his pre-race antics in the Dante when outrunning his odds to finish second in the Derby behind Auguste Rodin. That was an excellent performance, considering it was his first run of the year, and, providing he is over those exertions, Roger Varian's colt may prove a tough nut to crack. Arrest (10th) fared worst of those who went to Epsom, finishing behind Artistic Star (seventh) and Dubai Mile (ninth), but this more conventional track is likely to see him in a much better light, providing the ground doesn't get too quick for him. Artistic Star wasn't at all disgraced that day and the son of Galileo is likely to have more improvement to come, while Continuous is better than his display in the Prix du Jockey Club suggests.

KING OF STEEL ran a stunning race in the Derby on his comeback on what was just his third start, taking the lead briefly before caught by Auguste Rodin, the pair of them clear. He could have an even bigger effort in him and will be hard to beat if handling the quick turnaround. Arrest was looked after once his chance had gone at Epsom and remains capable of better, as does Artistic Star, who was doing his best work at the finish there.

It is hard to look beyond KING OF STEEL, who was a clear second in the Derby three weeks ago on his first run for Roger Varian.

DREAM TODAY looks capable of getting back to winning ways off this kind of mark. The eight-year-old ran a solid race behind cosy winner Warrior Brave at Fairyhouse last time and that form got a boost with the runner-up Master Matt winning back at the same venue the following week. First Gentleman is the unexposed one in the field having been placed in two maiden runs. He doesn't look harshly treated on his handicap debut and is open to further improvement. Little Queenie is a pound wrong at the weights but is a sharp sort and could make a bold bid from a low draw.

MERCURIAL is sure to strip fitter with his considerate reappearance under his belt and if he can return to peak form, he's a major player on these terms. Dream Today is into the veteran stage of his career but he still retains plenty of enthusiasm and he's nominated as the main danger.

A very open look to this rated race. VANGUARD STAR may prove a bit of value with Conor Stone-Walsh's claim a likely crucial factor

17:47 Goodwood Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

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

ALBA LONGA made a mockery of her opening mark when winning in impression fashion over an extended 1m3f at Windsor last month, and Ralph Beckett's filly is the one to beat off 6lb higher. Recent Chepstow scorer Divina Grace can progress further upped in trip, while class-dropper Great Bedwyn should not be taken lightly. Sovereign Spirit gained a third win from his last four starts when winning at Beverley 13 days ago and also commands attention.

ALBA LONGA relished the longer trip when running out a ready winner at Windsor last month and, with further progress on the cards, she's preferred to Divina Grace, who made a successful return at Chepstow recently. Great Bedwyn contested a more competitive event than this at York last time and he's likely to give a good account.

This can go to ALBA LONGA who looked a filly very much on the up when making an impressive return at Windsor last month.

17:55 Newmarket Maiden (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

FAAYZAH makes a fair amount of appeal on her first start, with her full-brother Red Mist a winner on his debut before going on to be placed in Listed company, and she is capable of adding to her stable's excellent run of form. Alnoory Star shaped with promise on her introduction at Pontefract and she is unlikely to have any issue stepping up in trip, while Giudecca, out of a Group 1-winning mare in Echelon, completes the shortlist.

QUEEN'S REIGN caught the eye on debut at Haydock, green and having running left at the finish. She's likely to quite a big step forward and can get the better on Alnoory Star, who should also come on for her encouraging debut. Faayzah, in particular, and Giudecca are interesting newcomers and can't be discounted in an interesting race of its type.

Queen's Reign is preferred to Alnoory Star among those who have run. Newcomers FAAYZAH and Giudecca read well, though.

COLLECTIVE POWER took a step forward when winning a competitive heat at Navan 12 days ago and the gelded son of Slade Power can mount another bold bid from a 7lb raised mark. He gets the nod over Dun Na Sead, who was eased 3lb in the ratings having finished a good third at Tipperary last month. Adnaan should be competitive, while previous C&D winner Ever Rock can't be left out of calculations either.

ADNAAN was shaping well towards the end of last year and he made a respectable reappearance at Naas 89 days ago, so he could get back to winning ways if the race is run to suit. Dun Na Sead and Collective Power look the main dangers.

She's not been at her best in 2 runs this term but EVER ROCK has won over C&D and she will appreciate any rain that arrives

Agnes Grey sets the form standard and, though it would come as no surprise were she to land the spoils, a chance is taken on POET MASTER. The Lope De Vega gelding, whose dam was successful at Listed level in her juvenile campaign, looks to have all the correct attributes to succeed on his racecourse bow. Belinda Bell can chase the pair home ahead of Sea Girt.

AGNES GREY has some fair form to her name so is fancied to gain a deserved first victory at the chief expense of Karl Burke's Lope De Vega newcomer Poet Master, who needs monitoring in the betting, Belinda Bell can also get in the mix if back on song after a break.

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

Although this is only the fourth renewal of this contest, fillies have tended to do well, including when placing in second and third last year, so it may pay to take a chance on Andrew Balding's FRANKNESS. The daughter of Frankel justified strong support when gaining a third career success at Goodwood earlier in the month and won with enough in hand on that occasion to suggest that a 5lb rise is manageable. Conquistador found a drop in trip to his liking when winning for new connections at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day and a 3lb rise for his gritty 6f success at Lingfield in March shouldn't prevent another bold bid now switched to turf. The lightly-raced Tawalla also bids for a hat-trick and is another to note under a 6lb penalty for last week's Kempton triumph.

Cases can be made for several, but preference is for FRANKNESS, who resumed winning ways in the style of one with more to come at Goodwood a fortnight ago and Andrew Balding's filly should have no problem dropped to the minimum trip for the first time. Conquistador has made the perfect start for his new yard and he could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Jer Batt, Radio Goo Goo and Danger Alert just a handful of others to consider.

Much better is likely from Hispanic today but JER BATT isn't fully exposed himself and can come out on top.

FARNBOROUGH should be good enough to win a maiden of this standard. The Galileo gelding was a touch unlucky in a competitive handicap at the Curragh last time having been runner-up in three maidens previously. He got stopped in his run a couple of times before staying on into sixth behind Betterdaysrcoming. Going back up slightly in trip now should suit. Emotivo is rated 2lb inferior by the handicapper and looks the obvious danger. The Belardo filly was a bit outclassed in stakes company at Navan last time but had run well on her return this season when third to Jackie Oh in a decent maiden at Naas. Machnamh ran a solid race when third at Gowran last time and looks place material again.

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and Aidan O'Brien's FARNBOROUGH looks to have been found an excellent opportuntiy to get off the mark after posting some fairly useful efforts. Machnamh also has the form to play a part and is next on the list ahead of Emotivo who steps back down in grade.

A fair standard is set by FARNBOROUGH who has been unlucky not to win a maiden and has a decent chance here

18:22 Goodwood Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

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

LA PULGA was only narrowly denied over this trip at Pontefract latest and Charlie Johnston's inmate is taken to benefit from a drop in class here. Although he has to shoulder top-weight, he bolted up over 1m 5f at Hamilton two starts back leaving the impression there is a lot more to come. Vega Sicilia sports first-time blinkers following a good second at York and is feared most, while Andaleep also makes some appeal.

The thriving LA PULGA is 2 lb well-in compared to his future mark and might ensure that former stablemate Vega Sicilia has to settle for the runner-up spot again. Enthrallment made quite an encouraging start for his new stable at Kempton recently and looks best of the rest.

The choice is LA PULGA (nap) who won and finished a close second in two starts earlier this month. He is already due another 2lb rise.

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

The Gosdens have won this three times in recent years, including most notably with St Leger hero Logician, and SHADOW OF WAR appears more than capable of adding to that tally. Fifth in a Lingfield maiden in November, he is bred to progress with age, being a half-brother to Gold Cup winner Subjectivist and smart stayer Sir Ron Priestley. His stable companion Governor Of India is entitled to step forward from his debut at Haydock a fortnight ago. Chepstow first and third Clan Chieftain and Seendid are both capable of further improvement too.

A fair bit of potential on show but it's hard to ignore the claims of CLAN CHIEFTAIN who looked a good prospect when going in at Chepstow and can successfully concede weight all round. Governor of India shaped really well first time up when fourth at Haydock so can have a say along with the progressive Seendid and newcomer Ya Hafhd.

The Gosden stable holds a strong hand with SHADOW OF WAR and Governor Of India who both look likely to improve.

Screen Siren could be popular with the punters after scoring with plenty in hand at Navan, but a 10lb rise tempers enthusiasm and MARIA BRANWELL is preferred after a near-miss off the same rating at the Curragh. A Listed winner for David O'Meara in the UK as a juvenile, she looks primed to record her first success for Joseph O'Brien and has conditions to suit. Escaping Thejungle has filled the runner-up berth on her last three starts and should give another good account of herself.

LOVEDAY left the impression she'd come on for her reappearance at Navan and she's on an appealing mark, so she gets the nod ahead of Maria Brawn, who arrives on the back of an excellent second at the Curragh. Escaping Thejungle is another one to consider.

Having been runner-up in this race last year off a 1lb higher mark, CURRAHEEN PRINCESS can go one better today.

Simple Star recorded back-to-back victories last month, one of which came over C&D, and Dianne Sayer's charge merits respect. Belle Of Annandale continues to knock on the door and she's unlikely to be far away, though preference is for MENELAUS. The son of Galileo Gold bolted up in an apprentice contest at York last week having won at Thirsk the start before. He's 9lb well-in here and looks set to progress further.

It's hard to look beyond MENELAUS, who is 9 lb 'well-in' with no penalty to carry for last week's clear-cut success in an apprentices' handicap at York. He is clearly at the top of his game and this step back up in trip is unlikely to be an issue. Well Planted gets the nod ahead of Belle of Annandale and Simple Star for forecast purposes.

It's surprising to see the visor left off but MENELAUS still looks the one to be with off a 2lb lower mark than at York last week.

AMEMRI was well backed but ran into another gamble when chasing home Drop The Dip at Listowel earlier in the month. It was still a solid run to chase home that rival and an improvement on her previous turf form. She had been a winner at Dundalk in March and having remained on the same mark as last time she's only rated 2lb higher than when scoring then. Miss Yvonne showed improvement when bowling along at Roscommon last time and could be a danger but the draw hasn't been particularly kind. The consistent Master Garvey is another for the shortlist but again he will have to start from a wide berth.

AMEMRI looks the way to go here given she can race off the same mark as when an excellent clear second at Listowel last time. Master Garvey is also weighted to have a say and is rated next best, while Monnow Valley is another who needs factoring in on the back of his very good Killarney third.

In a race where there is likely to be pace, it might pay to side with WATER MINT who enjoys an ease and will like dropping back to 1m

Desperate Hero scored with plenty to spare at Windsor recently and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to halt him, but slight preference is for SPARTAN ARROW after he caught the eye when failing to get a clear run in a decent contest over 6f at the same course. A Brighton maiden winner last month, Simon & Ed Crisford's colt looks capable of better and he could deliver on that promise with a clear passage. Woolhampton completes the shortlist.

SPARTAN ARROW left the impression he'd have gone close if things had gone his way last time and is preferred to last week's Windsor winner Desperate Hero. Woolhampton ran well in a warm race at York last time and is next on the list.

The vote goes to DESPERATE HERO who appeared to improve for the fitting of cheekpieces when winning in good style at Windsor last time.

John Chard Vc made a satisfactory return to action at Goodwood last month and it would be no surprise were he to take a step forward from 1lb lower. Mighty River continues to run well in defeat and must go on the shortlist, while Island Star is unlikely to be far away if seeing out this extra distance. NEVER ENDING doesn't appear to be overburdened by an opening mark of 82, though, and the daughter of No Nay Never is fancied to follow up her recent Goodwood victory now pitched into handicaps.

ISLAND STAR is thriving under the expert tutelage of Roger Varian and can bag a second success on the back of his fast-finishing Sandown third last time. Never Ending looks to have better days ahead of him and is feared most now going handicapping. In-form pair Mighty River and Feud complete the shortlist.

There should be more to come from NEVER ENDING (nap). Second choice is Feud, ahead of Island Star.

Wordsworth is a fascinating contender on his first start for Josh Halley because he wasn't far off the best three-year-olds in 2021. He did prove a bit costly to follow last season and left Ballydoyle for 43,000gns so perhaps TAIPAN is a safer option, with Jessica Harrington's charge arriving on a high after capitalising on some excellent placing by his connections recently. White Caviar had Mellow Magic in arrears when third in the Vintage Tipple Stakes, although that form was reversed at the Curragh subsequently.

TAIPAN should have had his confidence boosted by wins at a lower level in recent weeks and can complete a hat-trick now stepping back up in class. Wordsworth had a good record when fresh for Aidan O'Brien and will be a danger if reproducing anything like his best form on his return for a new stable. White Caviar just wasn't herself last time and her overall record suggests she can bounce back here and also play a prominent role.

POWERFUL AGGIE is coming off a poor run but with rain in the forecast conditions can suit her, so is the selection.

A comfortable winner over this trip at Catterick most recently, Glory Fighter seems a solid option despite an 8lb rise. However, his stablemate SPRING IS SPRUNG can take advantage of a considerable drop in class and the gelded son of Oasis Dream gets the vote. He was not disgraced when finishing in fourth off 1lb higher at York last month and the four-year-old may have more to offer. Sugar Baby has gone up 6lb for winning at Thirsk and completes the shortlist.

Paul Midgley looks to hold a strong hand here and his emphatic Catterick scorer GLORY FIGHTER can defy an 8 lb hike in the weights and lead home his in-form stablemate Spring Is Sprung. Cavalier Approach and Dickieburd appeal as the pick of the remainder and can fight it out for minor honours.

The 5yo SUGAR BABY is drawn well. He won with a nice bit in hand at Thirsk and can defy a career-high mark.

LAYFAYETTE takes a drop in grade here and can prove the class act. The former Group 2 winner has kept good company this season and ran well, despite not troubling the front pair, when fourth behind Luxembourg in the Group 1 Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh last time. A little cut in the ground suits him well and he does stay this trip, having won a listed race in good style at Roscommon over a mile-and-a-half a couple of years ago. Ottilien was a touch disappointing on her first outing for Joseph O'Brien but ran much better when third to Mashhoor at this level at the Curragh late last month. She could be a danger now. Stablemate Perfect Portrait comes here after winning a maiden at Gowran but is a nice sort and could be the potential improver in the field.

LAYFAYETTE has much the best form so he's the obvious choice to capitalise on this drop in grade. Ottilien heads up the dangers, along with Term of Endearment in an interesting renewal of this listed contest.

Twice a winner at Group level early last season LAFAYETTE escapes a penalty and his recent form at Group level gives him major claims

ANOTHER RUN boasts as good a chance as any on the basis that he comes here on the back of a career-best effort at Doncaster. Andrew Balding's colt was denied narrowly in handicap company on that occasion and might have more to offer going up in trip on just his third start on turf. Midnight Lion boasts a similar profile and represents Charlie Johnston's in-form yard, while Seahouses and Art De Vivre are also expected to go well.

Upped to 14.5f for his reappearance, MIDNIGHT LION left his 2-y-o form well behind when fourth at Doncaster 3 weeks ago and, now back in maiden company, he's fancied to get off the mark. Another Run is the obvious threat on form, though Art de Vivre and Seahouses are potential improvers.

This looks to be between ANOTHER RUN and Midnight Lion. The former is preferred with the form of his latest run working out well.

James Horton's charge was far from disgraced in a warm York contest having been successful at Wolverhampton two starts ago, and he could get back on track in these calmer waters. Cancan In The Rain is another to consider.

CANCAN IN THE RAIN arrives on the up and can race off the same mark as when an excellent Goodwood third a week ago so is fancied to resume winning ways. Buy The Dip is feared most on the back of his victory at Lingfield, with in-form pair Forest Demon and Edge of Ember also in the mix.

Awesome Georgie looks a likely improver but CANCAN IN THE RAIN can build on the promise of last week's Goodwood third.

Others worth considering include Glengarriff, who stepped forward from his first outing when upped in trip, and St Laurence's Gate.

BLAME THECHAMPAGNE is probably worth another chance despite her Listowel disappointment as she'd gone well in a Group 3 prior to that. Look At The Stars and State's Evidence are a couple of interesting newcomers.

Others of interest include Primo's Comet and Aconcagua Mountain.

PRIMO'S COMET took a step in the right direction last time and has an excellent track record, so he gets the nod down in grade. Latin Five is an obvious danger and Aconcagua Mountain is worthy of consideration on the back of an excusable run.

There may be a bit more to come from FOND FAREWELL, who swooped late to win over course and distance back in April. He only has a 3lb higher mark now and it was interesting to hear his rider report that he had a little blow pulling up last time and that further improvement could be forthcoming. Notturno has been knocking on the door and has to be on the shortlist but a wide draw in 19 isn't a help. Bigz Belief was a good winner over hurdles at Sligo last time and had also run well on the level prior to that. He looks another that has to be given serious consideration.

NOTTURNO has left his 2-y-o form behind switched to handicaps this season and he is taken to open his account at the eighth time of asking. A winner over hurdles recently, Bigz Belief is likely to give it a good shot back in this sphere and he is second choice ahead of Fond Farewell, who hit the target here last time. Chilean is also worth a second look.

The selection is FOND FAREWELL(nap), up only 3lb for his C&D win in April with the ground likely to be favourable

ACOTANGO improved again when coming clear with another progressive one in a good time at Southwell 10 days ago and he looks well handicapped from the same mark. Sceptic and Nails Murphy could be the chief threats.

This can go to ACOTANGO who is already due a 6lb rise for his narrow defeat at Southwell ten days ago. He acts on turf too.

A trappy little contest, with the hat-trick seeking American Belle high on the list after two-length victories at Chelmsford and Doncaster. A 5lb rise isn't as much of a concern as the fact she comes up against some unexposed opponents, not least VIA CORONE, who was beaten by a 66/1 shot at Haydock, but the winner proved that was no fluke when going close at Newbury next time. Prepense broke through at the Craven meeting and might be happier back at Newmarket after her subsequent Kempton defeat. Pastiche and last year's winner Nizaaka have plenty to recommend them too.

This looks competitive, despite the small field. The vote goes to JUMBEAU, who shaped with plenty of encouragement on her first try at this trip and in a handicap on the Rowley Mile, and she is on a good mark given her exploits in listed company last season. Pastiche brings potential to this handicap debut and is feared most, albeit only marginally as the hat-trick seeking American Belle and Prepense are also appealing candidates.

Pastiche has more to come but similar comments apply to VIA CORONE who could have been let into handicaps lightly.

The gelded son of Epaulette shaped better than the beaten distance suggests when finishing eighth in last year's renewal and the handicapper may have been too lenient in dropping him 11lb. Kratos rates as a viable alternative having been lowered 9lb for his recent seventh-placed effort at Fairyhouse.

Low-grade stuff with SWISS ARMY OFFICER one of a small number arriving in some sort of form and he gets the vote. Wee Pablo and Sunset Nova are a couple of the other players.

Iato's Angel, who is now 1lb lower than her fourth-placed finish over C&D a few weeks ago, is also noted.

HILLS OF GOLD signalled he's ready to open his account when an excellent clear second at Carlisle last time and still looks ahead of his mark despite a 3 lb rise with that form working out really well. In-form top-weight United Force appeals as the one to chase home Michael Dods's improver ahead of the consistent Iato's Angel.

United Force is solid and King Me is an interesting handicap debutant, but HILLS OF GOLD could be the answer.

Of the others, it might be worth keeping an eye on Tronador.

CASK MATE was out of sorts during the second half of his 2022 campaign but he was fifth in a valuable big-field Galway handicap last July off an 8 lb higher mark. The 10-y-o won't be found wanting fitness-wise having performed with credit over hurdles last month and he earns the vote.

MARY OF MODENA had to settle for third at Lingfield but she is much happier on turf, as she showed when scoring at Windsor the time before. Michael Attwater's filly can take her record on the surface to five wins from 12 attempts, whereas Megan Moon has been campaigned exclusively on the all-weather so far but showed ability when with Roger Varian and now starts off for the Stuart Williams team. Four Adaay often attracts support and can give her supporters a run for their money.

MARY OF MODENA looks the safest option. The ground was testing when she scored at Windsor in May but she won on a variety of ground-types in 2022 and her recent third on the all-weather at Lingfield was a decent effort. Next on the list is Annie Maher, who did pretty well all things considered on her first run in a handicap at Salisbury and she is now 3 lb lower in the weights. Four Adaay will also be a threat if she puts her best foot forward.

A trappy race in which FOUR ADAAY is tentatively preferred to Mary Of Modena.

21:00 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Global Humor displayed another willing attitude when completing a double at Ayr earlier in the month and a 2lb rise is likely to see Jim Goldie's gelding remain competitive. Preference, however, is for C&D winner MONHAMMER. The five-year-old is now 1lb better off with the aforementioned Global Humor for a nose defeat and is fancied to gain his revenge now returned to this venue. It's too soon to be writing off Surprise Picture and he completes the shortlist.

It may pay to side with SIR MAXI, who has been cut some slack by the handicapper and is now eased into 0-65 company for the first time in his career. Surprise Picture could be the one to follow him home, provided he breaks on terms. Monhammer was beaten a whisker by Global Humor at Ayr recently but may well reverse the placings this time and emerge as best of the rest.

The handicapper hasn't been able to hit GLOBAL HUMOR too hard for his recent narrow victories and he's taken to complete the hat-trick.

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.

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.
