Validated

10
10/1(-11%)
(6) Validated 10/1, Revitalised by new stable when running out a comfortable winner of a Brighton maiden (7f) in May and he ran well despite not looking at home on the track when sixth of 13 in handicap at Goodwood (7f) 6 weeks ago. Not out of things eased in class.
Improved form for new yard, winning at Brighton then close sixth at Goodwood.

Get The Music On

14
14/1(-17%)
(7) Get The Music On 14/1, Kempton novice winner who dispelled a couple of lesser efforts upon returning when second of 9 in handicap back at that venue (1m) last month. However, she again proved disappointing back on turf when last of 7 in handicap at Goodwood 15 days ago.
Best effort this season when second on Polytrack; weak claims on 2024 turf form.
8
(8) Al Shabab (20/1 +0%)
Al Shabab

20
20/1(+0%)
(8) Al Shabab 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden who returned to pick of his form when second in a Chelmsford novice (7f) in October on final start for Andrew Balding. Changed hands for 38,000 gns and gelded thereafter and feasible to think he can do better now handicapping as a 3-y-o.
0-5 last term for Andrew Balding; gelded since; market helpful on reappearance.

1st (2) Swindon (10/1 -43%)
Swindon

10/1(-43%)
(2) Swindon 10/1, Breeze-Up acquisition who made a winning start at Wolverhampton last November. Similar form both starts switched to turf this season, fourth of 7 on handicap debut at Goodwood (1m) 15 days ago. Remains early days and he could yet do better.
Possibly unsuited by the switch to hold-up tactics (after tardy start) last time.

2nd (1) Spanish Blaze (7/4 +7%)
Spanish Blaze

7/4(+7%)
(1) Spanish Blaze 7/4, Dual winner at 2 yrs (including here) and proved more settled with a run under his belt when resuming winning ways over C&D 21 days ago, keeping on well final 1f. Possibilities again from 4 lb higher mark in bid to maintain his 100% course record.
Successful in similar event over C&D three weeks ago, taking Sandown record to 2-2.
4
3rd (4) Storm Star (11/1 -144%)
Storm Star

11
11/1(-144%)
(4) Storm Star 11/1, Night of Thunder colt who was really getting the hang of things late on when making a winning debut at Newcastle (6f) in May. Respectable fourth under a penalty at Kempton (7f) subsequently and likely he can do better still now handicapping on turf debut.
Twice-raced colt; won on debut; bred to do better still and remains of interest.
3
4th (3) Lessay (100/1 -900%)
Lessay

100
100/1(-900%)
(3) Lessay 100/1, Winner on debut at Kempton (1m) in December and has run respectably in handful of starts since, fourth of 5 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, soft) 63 days ago. This sort of mark demands further progress, however.
AW winner; no improvement switched to turf two months ago; gelded since.
5
5th (5) Pitney (80/1 -2186%)
Pitney

80
80/1(-2186%)
(5) Pitney 80/1, Mehmas colt who made it third time lucky in a Wolverhampton novice (7f) in November and much-improved from his Newmarket reappearance when runner-up at Chester (7.6f) in June, forced widest of all 2f out and just failing. One to be interested in on that evidence.
Has shown largely progressive form; ran well at Chester most recently; in the mix.

13:15 Sandown Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

STORM STAR lost little in defeat when finishing fourth behind some potentially useful rivals in a hot novice event at Kempton last month and, making his handicap debut off what looks a workable mark, the son of Night Of Thunder gets the tentative vote in a competitive affair. Swindon didn't look entirely at home on the track when fourth over a mile at Goodwood on his handicap bow most recently, and better can be expected off an unchanged mark, while recent C&D winner Spanish Blaze must also enter calculations in a fascinating renewal.

SPANISH BLAZE showed the benefit of his reappearance run when adding a second C&D handicap to his tally 3 weeks ago, well positioned as the race unfolded but keeping on well nevertheless to prevail. He looks a sound player again from a 4 lb higher mark and shades the vote ahead of Pitney, who ran a cracker without being seen to best effect at Chester latest. Storm Star and Swindon are others worth a look.

Being 2-2 over C&D and possibly capable of better still, SPANISH BLAZE (nap) is the pick. Pitney is second choice.

Cloud King

8.5
17/2(-42%)
(7) Cloud King 17/2, His 2 best efforts have come at Southwell, winning 5f handicap in March. Just fourth in weaker 6-runner 3-y-o Windsor handicap on Monday and more needed here.
Fair fourth of sixth at Windsor on Monday; the likely strong pace will boost his claims.

Vince L'amour

9/1(+10%)
(4) Vince L'amour 9/1, Bagged a pair of 5f/6f handicaps in the mud in April and good efforts behind Due For Luck at Chester and Epsom subsequently. Unable to lead at York last time. Wouldn't dismiss.
Getting away from York could be a plus; two wins this year and might not be far away.

3rd (3) Curious Rover (7/2 +13%)
Curious Rover

3.5
7/2(+13%)
(3) Curious Rover 7/2, Enjoyed a productive 2-y-o campaign, including a C&D success, and good efforts this term when fifth behind Due For Luck at Epsom and third to Copper Knight at Chester last time. Respected.
C&D winner who has run well in defeat the last twice and can give another good account.

4th (2) Fool's Gold (9/2 -29%)
Fool's Gold

4.5
9/2(-29%)
(2) Fool's Gold 9/2, Won 6f Windsor maiden in September before struggling behind Big Evs on softer ground in the Flying Childers. Gelded since last seen and remains with potential now handicapping at 3 yrs.
One win from his three 2yo starts; market check advised on handicap and seasonal debut.
1
5th (1) Due For Luck (5/1 -150%)
Due For Luck

5
5/1(-150%)
(1) Due For Luck 5/1, Dual winner at 2 yrs and looked unlucky not to land a hot Chester (5.1f) handicap on return, finishing with a flourish. Good third in the 3YO "Dash" at Epsom (again strong form) 5 weeks ago and leading claims down in class.
Third in the 3yo Dash at Epsom last month and holds strong claims now back down in grade.

6th (6) Lady Pink Rose (100/1 -1150%)
Lady Pink Rose

100
100/1(-1150%)
(6) Lady Pink Rose 100/1, Won 5f Beverley maiden a year ago but has been well held all 4 starts this season. Drops back in trip from reduced mark now.
The drop back down to 5f could trigger a revival but her claims aren't overly compelling.
5
7th (5) Moonstone Boy (100/1 -900%)
Moonstone Boy

100
100/1(-900%)
(5) Moonstone Boy 100/1, Winner at Southwell in March and good seconds there and at Thirsk the next twice. Progression looks to have levelled off but his mark has dipped as a result and he has the services of the yard's 5 lb claimer for the first time here.
Runner-up twice in a row in the spring and now 4lb lower, but not at the same level since.

13:30 Haydock Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

The pecking order among the current crop of three-year-old sprinters is working out nicely and it would come as no surprise to see DUE FOR LUCK stamp his authority on this race under top-weight. A close third in the 3YO 'Dash' at Epsom on Derby day, the son of Due Diligence has improved with each start and, off just a 1lb higher mark, can confirm the form with the reopposing Curious Rover (fifth) and Vince L'Amour (sixth). Seasonal debutant Fool's Gold is also noted now dropped in class.

There are more races in DUE FOR LUCK and he makes most appeal dropped in class here. Old-rival Curious Rover is feared most ahead of the returning Fool's Gold.

Topweight DUE FOR LUCK was denied a clear run when a fine third in the 3yo Dash at Epsom and can make amends in this easier race.

Pap's Turf

7/1(-133%)
(2) Pap's Turf 7/1, Put debut experience to good use when won 7-runner minor event (5/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 18 days ago by 2¼ lengths from Footwork, having run of race. Fancied to be in the mix again under a penalty.
Made all to comfortably beat Footwork over C&D; major player despite the penalty.

(9) Sanbona 100/1, 18/1, hopelessly green when twelfth of 14 in minor event at York (6f, good) on debut 6 weeks ago. Up in trip.
Never that competitive after starting slowly at York and has to leave that run well behind.

El Burhan

8/11(+51%)
(1) El Burhan 8/11, 6/4, confirmed debut promise when won 9-runner minor event at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) just under 6 weeks ago, benefiting from the step up in trip to lead approaching final 1f. Carries a penalty but seems sure to progress further.
Has the penalty but also the best form after winning nicely at Yarmouth.
5
2nd (5) Footwork (33/1 -843%)
Footwork

33
33/1(-843%)
(5) Footwork 33/1, 3/1, showed plenty to work on when 2¼ lengths second of 7 to Pap's Turf in minor event at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 18 days ago. Should improve, so fancied to go close.
Has just over 2l to find with Pap's Turf on their recent C&D clash but that was his debut.
7
3rd (7) Knights Gold (28/1 -180%)
Knights Gold

28
28/1(-180%)
(7) Knights Gold 28/1, Foaled April 17. 68,000 gns yearling, Dark Angel colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart winner up to 11f Sand Zabeel and 1¼m winner Paris Rose. Dam 1m-1¼m winner who stayed 13f. Best watched unless market indicates otherwise.
68,000gns yearling; half-brother to six winners, some of them decidedly useful.

Divine Legacy

100
100/1(-1718%)
(3) Divine Legacy 100/1, Foaled April 20. Siyouni colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 1½m Silver Knott. Catches the eye on pedigree and one to keep a close eye on.
Third foal; half-brother to 7f 2yo-1m4f winner Silver Knott (US Grade 2; RPR 123).

(4) Dr T H G 100/1, 11/1, failed to progress from debut when third of 6 in minor event at Nottingham (6.1f, good) just over 3 weeks ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip.
Beaten about 9l by Al Burhan at Yarmouth and was no better at Nottingham.

(8) New Bombay 100/1, Offered little when ninth of 11 in minor event (33/1) at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) on debut 23 days ago. Looks one for the longer term.
Weak 33-1 chance at Newbury and beat just two home in what looked a good race.

13:40 Beverley Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

El Burhan created a favourable impression when scoring cosily over 7f at Yarmouth in May and George Boughey's charge must be respected in a race of this nature. That said, preference is for PAP'S TURF. The son of Shaman made no mistake when getting off the mark with the minimum of fuss at the second attempt over C&D last month, cutting out his own fractions before asserting under hands and heels on the run-in. Footwork, who was second to the selection on that occasion, can also go well but may have to go some to reverse that form.

EL BURHAN relished the extra distance when getting off the mark at Yarmouth just under 6 weeks ago and with further progress on the cards, George Boughey's colt is taken to follow up at the expense of Footwoork, who was a place behind Pap's Turf on debut but is expected to improve past that rival here. Divine Legacy catches the eye on pedigree, so he completes the shortlist.

This doesn't look that strong a race and Yarmouth winner EL BURHAN might well be able to defy the penalty.

Makarova

9
9/1(-29%)
(7) Makarova 9/1, Landed a listed contest at Ayr last summer and held her own when fourth in the Nunthorpe at York and sixth in the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp. Respectable efforts in defeat this term, 3¾ lengths seventh of 17 in King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago. In the mix.
Runner-up 12 months ago but will need a career best to win her first Group race.

Purosangue

9
9/1(+44%)
(9) Purosangue 9/1, Ended solid juvenile campaign with a ¾-length success in a 6f listed event at York. Creditable third in 6f Ascot Group 3 on reappearance but limitations exposed in Sandy Lane at Haydock/King Charles III Stakes (80/1) at Royal Ascot both starts since.
Would be helped by rain (best efforts on softer than good) but needs marked improvement.

Desperate Hero

5
5/1(+0%)
(3) Desperate Hero 5/1, Better than ever this year, winning his last 2 starts, taking his form to another level when making all in an excellent time in class 2 handicap at Hamilton. Faces strong competition for the lead here but well worth a shot at this level.
Surged clear of 14 rivals in Hamilton handicap; well worth his place in this higher grade.

4th (5) Live In The Dream (100/1 -3536%)
Live In The Dream

100
100/1(-3536%)
(5) Live In The Dream 100/1, Very speedy front runner who showed improved form when winning the Group 1 Nunthorpe Stakes at York last summer. Reappearance second in the Temple Stakes at Haydock was good and probably best excuse run there since. The one to beat.
2023 Nunthorpe winner; best forgiven last run; tops the ratings; commands major respect.
6
5th (6) Twilight Calls (20/1 -400%)
Twilight Calls

(6) Twilight Calls 20/1, Smart gelding who ran well when ¾-length fourth in Palace House at Newmarket (5f, good) on reappearance. Backed that up when 3¼ lengths sixth of 17 in King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot and can go well again back down in class. Headgear applied.
Regularly contests Group events but yet to win one; first-time cheekpieces may help.

6th (1) Apollo One (100/1 -614%)
Apollo One

(1) Apollo One 100/1, Most likeable and reliable sprinter who was runner-up in the Wokingham and Stewards' Cup last season. As good as ever when placed in handicaps at Newmarket/Epsom both starts this term and should give another good account back up in class.
Tough and reliable, but up in grade and will need a career best to win.

Her fourth over C&D three weeks ago leaves her with good deal to find in this higher grade.
4
8th (4) Equality (100/1 -733%)
Equality

100

(4) Equality 100/1, Translated smart handicap form to Group 3 company when winning this last year. Another good handicap performance when seeing off 14 rivals at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) in April but well below par in Temple Stakes at Haydock/King Charles III Stakes at Royal Ascot since.
Last year's winner; excuses last two starts and could bounce back under Billy Loughnane.

13:50 Sandown Group 3 (Class 1) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Live In The Dream is undoubtedly a high-class performer over the minimum trip and he merits respect, but on the back of a below-par effort in a Haydock Listed race last month, it may pay to side with DESPERATE HERO. Jack Channon's charge accounted for multiple subsequent winners when bolting up over 5f in a Hamilton handicap last time, and this upwardly mobile sprinter looks worth his place at this level. Classy on his day, Twilight Calls is well capable of playing a hand in a race of this nature and, sporting cheekpieces for the first time, a bold showing is anticipated.

LIVE IN THE DREAM skipped Royal Ascot for a crack at this and last year's Nunthorpe winner sets a clear standard. Twilight Calls will be suited by the likely strong pace so is next best ahead of the fast-improving Desperate Hero, who looks worth a shot at this level after his wide-margin win in a handicap at Hamilton.

The booking of Billy Loughnane could be the catalyst for a return to form for EQUALITY. Live In The Dream is feared most.

Stayed on for third over 1m4f at Thirsk last time and could relish this longer distance.

Unplaced favourite over 1m2f on handicap debut but bred to be suited by this longer trip.

Stepping up to this trip is an unknown factor for some of these and, with that in mind, it can pay to side with WILD WAVES, who supplemented a cosy win over 1m4f on Polytrack at Kempton with an even more eye-catching success over the extended 1m6f at Doncaster last time out. Not fully extended that day, the Andrew Balding-trained colt could be too progressive for the likes of Align The Stars and the lightly-raced Dramatic Star, who rate the pick of the opposition.

William Haggas has a fine record in this and his upwardly-mobile Sea The Stars colt DRAMATIC STAR is fancied to make a winning start to life in handicaps. George Boughey's Fouroneohfever also looks to have better days ahead of him and heads the list of dangers, although a solid case can be made for Wild Waves, Too Bossy For Us and Games People Play too in this cracking handicap.

William Haggas has won three of the last four runnings and DRAMATIC STAR is taken to make a winning handicap debut.

14:10 Naas Maiden 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FLASH THE CASH takes a drop in class here after a creditable effort in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot last month. The Bungle Inthejungle filly wasn't disgraced when mid-division in Group 2 company last time and reverts to maiden company now. She had been third at Navan previously and sets a good standard off a mark of 86. Lunigiana looks the obvious danger having been runner-up on her debut at Cork just over three weeks ago. She bumped into a classy looking sort in Babouche then. Sweet Chariot was fifth in that Cork maiden and is a potential improver.

FLASH THE CASH ran about as well as could have been expected 5¾ lengths tenth of 24 in Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot and a fillies' maiden should be well within her compass. Lunigiana beat the rest comfortably when second to an exciting prospect at Cork and rates a big threat, while the regally-bred Sweet Chariot offered plenty to work on when fifth in the same race.

Cork runner-up LUNIGIANA pulled well clear of the remainder on that occasion and can go one better here

14:15 Beverley Maiden (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

RAJETERIAT found only one rival too good in a warm race over 5f at Sandown last month and, having placed over this C&D prior to that, he gets the vote to gain a first career success. Uncle Don kept on well to finish runner-up over 6f at Ayr on his debut and he can emerge as the main danger to the selection. Of the newcomers, Big Mojo appeals the most.

RAJETERIAT sets the standard in this contest, beaten only by a progressive type at Sandown on his latest outing, so he could be ready to get off the mark this time around. He is taken to get the better of Uncle Don, who made a promising debut at Ayr a fortnight ago, with Big Mojo the pick of the newcomers.

Tom Clover's RAJETERIAT not only has leading form claims but also the early speed and experience to make the most of his good draw.

14:25 Sandown Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Perotto (third) got the better of HOLLOWAY BOY (fifth) when the pair met in the Royal Hunt Cup at Ascot last month, but the latter wasn't seen to best effect after being short of room at a crucial stage before running on well close home. With that in mind, Karl Burke's charge gets the vote to reverse that form off 1lb better terms en route to victory here. Two Tempting (first) and Classic (second) battled it out over C&D last month and the duo look to have solid claims of at least hitting the frame once more.

Last month's C&D handicap coupled with the Royal Hunt Cup look the key pieces of form. CLASSIC split Two Tempting and Dual Identity in the former race but really should have won and is selected to gain compensation. Metal Merchant was second in his group in the latter race so needs treating as though still in top form, with Perotto also of serious interest.

The percentage call goes to CLASSIC, ahead of Holloway Boy in an open-looking Coral Challenge.

14:40 Haydock Group 2 (Class 1) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Tiffany is a typical improver from the Sir Mark Prescott yard who is highly likely to be a key player here. However, LADY BOBA, who was a short-head runner-up in the Lester Piggott Stakes over this C&D last month, is already more proven at this trip and shades preference given the winner got first run that day. Queen Of The Pride escapes a penalty for landing that Group 3 prize but might struggle to uphold the form given the selection is expected to have benefitted greatly from what was her seasonal debut.

TIFFANY took the step up to Group 3 level in her stride when running out a comfortable winner from a host of useful fillies in a Group 3 at Newcastle last week and can make it 7 wins from her last 8 starts. There was little between Queen of The Pride and Lady Boba when 1-2 in the Pinnacle Stakes over C&D last month and are obvious threats.

The Sir Mark Prescott-trained 4yo TIFFANY is firmly on the up and can complete a four-timer. Queen Of The Pride is second choice.

14:45 Naas Stakes 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

RED EVOLUTION has bumped into some smart sorts in his two maidens and may be able to collect now despite giving weight to his rivals. The Mehmas colt was third in a tight finish on his debut at the Curragh and the winner Henri Matisse went on to land the Railway Stakes. Last time he lost out by a neck to another nice horse in Celtic Chieftain at Navan and his form looks very solid. Elzem is the only winner in the field and looks like a big danger. He gets a nice pull from the selection with Wayne Hassett taking off a valuable 5lb. The lightly weighted Billie Be Quick is another that has to come into calculations.

RED EVOLUTION went close in a couple of above average maidens at the Curragh and Navan so looks the one to beat. Elzem is next best ahead of Billie Be Quick and Alfred Tennyson.

This should go to RED EVOLUTION who sets a good standard here after narrow defeats on both starts

14:50 Beverley Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

PERSIAN BLUE kept on well to finish second over 5f at Windsor on Monday and another prominent showing is expected. There should be more to come from William Haggas' filly and the quick turnaround suggests she's come out of that race earlier in the week in good nick. Warrendale Wagyu is better than he showed over C&D last month and joins Stash The Cash on the shortlist.

A few with chances but George Boughey's MARCHING MAC could prove the answer now he drops in trip having gone too freely when fifth over 7f at Wetherby last time. Stash The Cash is weighted to go close and next on the list ahead of in-form duo Persian Blue and Warrendale Wagyu.

One with a bit of potential is PERSIAN BLUE who can compete off the same mark as when second at Windsor on Monday.

15:00 Sandown Listed (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Soprano got up to take the Sandringham at Royal Ascot by half a length last month and that performance has earned her a rating of 107, which makes her the top-rated in this contest. However, she looks worth taking on with the John & Thady Gosden-trained REGAL JUBILEE. The daughter of Frankel suffered interference at a vital stage when taking home the silver medal at this level at Goodwood in May and, with a clearer passage this time around, she could be the one to beat. Clove Hitch has plenty of scope for improvement and is another to keep an eye on.

INDELIBLE emerged with her reputation enhanced despite meeting with defeat to Soprano in the Sandringham, 'winning' the race on her side, and she could be up to reversing that form with George Boughey's filly with the prospect of more improvement to come. Clove Hitch and Regal Jubilee complete the shortlist.

Sandringham winner SOPRANO has particularly strong claims, being top rated and still unexposed at 1m. Clove Hitch is feared most.

15:15 Haydock Handicap (Class 2) 12f Race Class Flow

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

David O'Meara landed this contest two years ago with Get Shirty and the trainer can do so once more with EPIC POET, who runs in the same colours. The son of Lope De Vega showed marked improvement from first to second start for his new connections when runner-up in the Duke Of Edinburgh Stakes at Royal Ascot and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to return to winning ways. A comfortable scorer over this distance at Epsom on his penultimate outing, Relentless Voyager should be thereabouts, along with the returning La Yakel for the in-form William Haggas yard. Chillingham has threatened to win a handicap of this nature for some time and is another to consider, as well as the veteran Euchen Glen and Iron Lion.

EPIC POET represents the same connections as 2022 winner Get Shirty and is taken to build on his good second in the Duke of Edinburgh at Royal Ascot. Relentless Voyager, a fine third at listed level last time, If Not Now and Sheer Rocks head the many dangers in a typically competitive renewal.

David O'Meara has won two of the last eight runnings and has another likely type in Royal Ascot runner-up EPIC POET (nap).

15:20 Naas Handicap 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

AMERICAN IN PARIS ran a remarkable race here last time after blowing the start and if she can get off on terms the Starspangledbanner filly is up to winning off her current mark. She gave the field a healthy start then and was getting reminders early on. Going to the line though she powered home and was just denied for second at the post behind Turn Up The Beat. The winner turns out again here and with connections saying that they expected improvement from that run he has to be respected. Scarlet Dancer drops in trip after a cosy win at Roscommon on Tuesday and is another for the shortlist.

SCARLET DANCER confirmed more positive signs when ending a losing run stretching back almost 3 years at Roscommon 4 days ago and, evidently thriving at present, he could well be up to defying a penalty. Not Just Yet, with a reappearance spin under his belt, and Nouvel Espoir are others to consider, with Lady Daar and American In Paris completing the shortlist.

After running creditably in a much stronger race at Navan, NOUVEL ESPOIR may have a class edge over these and he remains unexposed

15:25 Beverley Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

GOLDEN MYRRH successfully recorded a double when scoring by just under a length at Doncaster last time. Ralph Beckett's three-year-old has a 6lb rise to contend with, but that is unlikely to be enough to prevent her from going in again. Ziggy's Phoenix produced a solid display to fill the runner-up spot in this grade last month and she should go well off the same rating, while Zapphire is another to note back at this level.

GOLDEN MYRRH is on a roll and a 6 lb rise for her recent impressive Doncaster victory doesn't look sufficient to prevent Ralph Beckett's filly from rattling off a hat-trick. Richard Fahey's resurgent No Nay Nicki could emerge as the main danger, with Ziggy's Phoenix, Zapphire and Blufferonthebus also in the picture.

The Frankel filly GOLDEN MYRRH had more in hand last time at Doncaster than her narrow margin of victory may suggest.

Lightly raced since but his close fourth in the Ganay at Longchamp (10.5f, soft) on his reappearance in April shows he can still mix it at the highest level. Well held on a much firmer surface in the US since. Any easing of the ground in his favour.

15:35 Sandown Group 1 (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Derby hero CITY OF TROY is likely to prove a very warm order for this contest, as that form has already been franked with his stablemate, Los Angeles (third), taking the Irish Derby last week. Aidan O'Brien's colt has his first attempt at this trip, but he showed plenty of pace as a juvenile, so that is unlikely to catch him out. Ghostwriter looks the main danger after he finished in front of the selection in the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket and he backed that up with a respectable fourth in the Prix du Jockey Club at Chantilly. Dancing Gemini may improve for this drop back in trip and he completes the shortlist.

An Eclipse which revolves around CITY OF TROY, who will surely have too much for these rivals if in anything like the same form as when leaving Ambiente Friendly and Los Angeles (third and first in last weekend's Irish Derby) trailing in his wake at Epsom. Bar a forgivable blip at Chester, recent Royal Ascot winner Jayarebe has a progressive profile and might be the one to chase Aidan O'Brien's colt home.

It should be onwards and upwards for CITY OF TROY, who bounced right back in the Derby. Dancing Gemini is second choice.

15:50 Haydock Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

HOFBURG has improved with each start in his career thus far and he has every chance on the back of a narrow reversal at Chepstow last month. A mark of 75 on his nursery handicap debut could prove lenient, and the son of Mehmas is preferred to Shazani, who has been handed an opening mark of 84 after scoring comfortably at Hamilton. Not beaten far at Brighton last time out, Gold Medallist looks well capable of breaking the maiden at this level.

SHAZANI relished 6f when making third start a winning one at Hamilton 3 weeks ago, and with the prospect of more to come, he's taken to continue the good work. Hofburg is going the right way so he's feared, with Arabian Cobra well weighted on the pick of his form.

Having kept on for an eyecatching fourth over 5f at Goodwood a fortnight ago, RARE CHANGE earns the vote now back up to 6f.

15:55 Naas Handicap 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A competitive looking contest and previous course and distance winner TAI TAM BAY may prove the pick after a good run at the Curragh a week ago. She kept on nicely when third at a big price behind Apricot Ice in a strong contest then and despite a 4lb rise is entitled to run a big race here. Magical Vision was a winner at the Curragh on her last outing but this quicker ground would be a concern for her. Ostraka ran really well on her first outing for Danny Murphy at Cork, when second to Bold Optimist, and could be a big player here now.

Plenty arrive with claims, including TAI TAM BAY who shaped well returned to sprinting when third at the Curragh 7 days ago, particularly given she probably raced a touch further back than ideal, and she can confirm the promise of that run and come out on top. Aurora Nova shouldn't be judged harshly on her latest run and better is expected here. Magical Vision and Annie Edson Taylor are a couple of others to factor in.

The selection is TAI TAM BAY(nap) who ran a fine race off her highest mark at the Curragh last week and should go very close

16:00 Beverley Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

GOD OF FIRE made a highly encouraging start for the Daniel & Claire Kubler stable when hitting the crossbar in this grade at Salisbury last time. The son of Muhaarar is only 2lb higher for that performance and, with Jim Crowley booked, he looks the way to go. Giselles Defence bolted up in an apprentice race at Epsom on his latest outing, so he holds an obvious chance off the same mark, while Strawman can be in the mix for the minor honours.

GISELLES DEFENCE escapes a penalty for his win at Epsom earlier in the week and should prove difficult to beat if coping with the quick turnaround. Bearwith was back to his best at Doncaster last week and should be in the mix again, with God of Fire another player on his second start for the Kubler yard.

Giselles Defence is feared but preference is for GOD OF FIRE who got himself firmly back on track on his debut for the Kublers.

16:05 Leicester Seller (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

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

COILED has performed with credit in placing on each of his four starts over shorter to suggest his turn might be near. Eve Johnson Houghton's charge shaped encouragingly when second at Goodwood 27 days ago and could prove hard to beat now stepping up in trip. Addictive is an interesting contender on his turf debut following a couple of spins on the all-weather and is feared most, ahead of Double O One.

ADDICTIVE displayed some promise in a couple of early-season maiden/novice contests on all-weather, and with this increase in trip promising to suit, he shades the vote back from a break on his turf debut down in class. Coiled, Double O One and I Love Dad head up the dangers, in that order.

The safest option is COILED, who is beginning to look exposed after four starts but has a reassuringly consistent record.

16:12 Sandown Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Midnight Rumble impressed when scoring over this trip at Lingfield and should go well if transferring that form back to turf off a 6lb higher mark. Fellow last-time-out winner Dramatic Effect also appeals, with the step up in trip potentially a source for improvement. However, the latter was no match for BLAKE when they clashed here in May and, having subsequently finished a respectable fourth over 1m2f in a deeper race at Epsom, Peter Chapple-Hyam's colt shades preference back at this happy hunting ground.

A host in with chances but the verdict goes to ASHARIBA, who doubled her tally at Leicester just under 6 weeks ago (front pair pulled 22 lengths clear), and with further progress on the cards, a 4 lb rise certainly doesn’t look insurmountable. She can get the better of Midnight Rumble, who is improving with experience and opened his account at Lingfield recently, with Sun God taken to edge out Highland Spring for minor honours.

An open 3yo handicap can go to HIGHLAND SPRING, who finished with running left when fifth at Kempton ten days ago.

16:25 Haydock Handicap (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Recent Thirsk scorer Telemark and the hat-trick seeking Spirit Genie are on an upward curve and both must be seriously considered, but it is BILLYJOH who shades preference. Stepped up to 7f for the first time in the Buckingham Palace last month, it proved to be no problem as he finished second to the impressive English Oak. Given that he has scope for further progress at this trip, Michael Appleby's gelding can shrug off a 2lb rise in the handicap and go one better. Others to note include Mister Sketch and Oliver Show.

After 9 weeks off and in first-time tongue strap, TELEMARK did well under the circumstances when winning at Thirsk on his latest outing, coming from further back than ideal in a steadily-run race, so he is taken to follow up with more still to offer. Billyjoh produced another good effort in defeat at Royal Ascot and is feared most, ahead of Boardman.

The last two running of this have gone to 3yos so TELEMARK gets a narrow vote over Royal Ascot runner-up Billyjoh.

16:30 Naas Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Like most of the Ballydoyle juveniles SWAGMAN should improve from his first run and can step forward to open his account. The Wootton Bassett colt shaped with promise when third to Hotazhell at the Curragh last month and with that experience under his belt he looks the one to beat. Mano Chicago was also third on his debut at Gowran Park last month and Johnny Murtagh's charge looks like another leading player. The market may prove the best guide to the chances of the Dermot Weld-trained newcomer Truth Be Told. The Too Darn Hot colt is out of Ribblesdale winner Princess Highway and a half-brother to three winners, including the Group 1 placed Eternal Silence.

Aidan O'Brien's SWAGMAN appeals as the sort to take a sizeable step forward from his debut Curragh third so gets the nod from Mano Chicago who also made a promising start when third at Gowran recently. Newcomers Truth Be Told and Glyndwr are in good hands and can't be discounted either, especially if the market vibes are positive.

Preference is for MANO CHICAGO after a very good debut at Gowran with plenty of improvement likely

16:35 Beverley Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

CROWN'S LADY put three underwhelming efforts well behind her when scoring on her handicap debut over a mile at Ripon last month. Craig Lidster's charge is only 4lb higher for that victory and she could improve for this step up in trip. Little Venice struck by three lengths over track and trip last time and she is likely to be on the premises once again off 5lb higher, while Mon Etoile can pick up any pieces.

LITTLE ROSE had looked firmly on the up when going in over C&D in the spring and is worth forgiving her subsequent blip at Doncaster returning after a break. Fellow C&D scorer Little Venice should ensure William Haggas' daughter of Dubawi doesn't have things all her own way though, while in-form duo Jez Bomb and Crown's Lady can both have a say too.

With a strong pace highly likely this could be run to suit LITTLE VENICE (nap) who arrived late on the scene here 11 days ago.

16:40 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

An open-looking contest, but KEEN INTEREST posted his best effort to date when runner-up at Bath last month and a repeat showing off the same mark of 47 may be enough to see Alice Haynes' gelding open his account. Michael Wigham is 2-5 with his representatives here in the last five seasons, so his Bubblecraft is worth a second look, while Ribkana is another to consider having finished second at Ripon last time out.

RIBKANA ran as well as she ever has when runner-up at Ripon 17 days ago and a reproduction of that form could be enough to see her shed her maiden status. First Encounter will pose a threat if able to bounce back from a poor showing at Wetherby last month, with Walk The Moon likely to remain competitive from his current mark.

His strike-rate is 0-13 but KEEN INTEREST stuck to his task very well when second to a next-time-out winner at Bath recently.

16:47 Sandown Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

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

The weight-for-age allowance hands the three-year-olds, Dambuster and BALMACARA a potentially big advantage. While the former is open to any amount of improvement on his handicap debut, the latter has latent potential in his pedigree and can make the greater strides now he faces a sterner test of stamina, with a first-time hood added. Chasing Aphrodite is feared off just 4lb higher than his C&D win last month, while Persica and Truthful are other solid contenders to monitor in the betting.

DAMBUSTER is easily the least exposed in this field and there should be a good deal more to come, so he makes most appeal. Chasing Aphrodite is a player if he can get across to lead from stall 15 but, if the race is strongly run, Stay Well is likely to come into it along with a few others.

Preference is for bottom-weight DAMBUSTER, who looks the type to improve further. Persica is second choice.

16:53 Bellewstown Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Placed in four of his seven starts for Ger Lyons, HUTTON GLEN can make a winning debut over hurdles. Out of a useful dual-purpose mare, it's interesting that Tom Gibney pitches him into a novice contest straight away and the son of Aclaim will be fitter for his return to action at Leopardstown in May. St Faz, rated similarly to the selection on the Flat, has a nice bit of experience in this discipline. The Killarney maiden winner makes a quick reappearance after an unplaced run at the Curragh and has a healthy hurdles mark of 120. Churchwarden was highly tried a couple of times during the winter and will be fitter for a recent spin on the Flat.

ST FAZ can bounce back quickly from a lesser run on the Flat and land a second hurdle success. Charming Star, a winner at Navan in March, is feared most. Hutton Glen needs checking out in the betting on his hurdle debut.

Charming Star and St Faz hold strong claims but a chance is taken on hurdling debutant HUTTON GLEN, who receives weight

17:00 Haydock Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

TREASURE TIME battled on gamely to score at Newmarket a fortnight ago and, given that he pulled well clear with the runner-up, a 4lb rise might underestimate the son of Time Test. There will be challengers aplenty, however, with recent C&D victor Pedro Valentino perhaps topping the list of dangers. Love Billy Boy finished fourth behind subsequent Britannia hero Mickley at Doncaster in May before going on to record a success of his own and he is another solid candidate today.

A competitive 3yo handicap, with PEDRO VALENTINO narrowly preferred to notch his second C&D win 4 weeks on from his first. Treasure Time has proved progressive this season and should pose a major threat having scored at Newmarket at fortnight ago, whilst recent Chester winner Love Billy Boy also makes plenty of appeal.

It might be worth forgiving BURDETT a lesser effort last time as a smooth York success prior to that suggested he was a 3yo on the up.

17:05 Naas Stakes 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Ado McGuinness and Ronan Whelan have been trying to get ELINOR DASHWOOD to settle better in her races and were rewarded for their labours when the daughter of Kodi Bear won a handicap over this trip at Gowran. She had a couple of subsequent winners behind her on that occasion and, although wrong at these weights, may be progressive enough to defy what is effectively a 10lb higher mark. Chicago Fireball has come good lately with a pair of front-running victories over a mile and one would imagine similar tactics will be employed over this shorter distance. Democracy found trouble in running in a similar contest at Fairyhouse when an unlucky third to a subsequent premier handicap winner.

None of these can be discounted but DEMOCRACY is fancied to gain compensation for his unlucky Fairyhouse third and get back to winning ways. Chicago Fireball rates a big threat though on the back of his recent Leopardstown victory, with Messerschmitt also well in the mix.

Gowran h'cap winner Elinor Dashwood is effectively 10lb higher so will need to have improved again in the interim but that is possible

17:15 Leicester Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Having returned a beaten favourite at short odds the last twice, Asinara is proving expensive to follow and can be opposed once more. Preference is for the David Simcock-trained SANT ALESSIO, whose form looks a touch superior and could offer better value. This son of Too Darn Hot bumped into a subsequent winner when second over 1m at Kempton in November, going down by only three-quarters of a length, and is interesting on his first crack at sprinting after a respectable effort over 1m at Thirsk. The grade-dropping Harry Did may do best of the remainder.

HARRY DID and Asinara look the pair to focus on. The former was well held on his turf/handicap debut at Newmarket on his most recent outing, but he posted a good second in a race that's worked out well at Kempton on his reappearance and is well worth another chance back in appreciably calmer waters.

It can pay to give another chance to HARRY DID, who disappointed on his handicap debut but looked promising in his qualifying races.

17:28 Bellewstown Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Paul Townend comes here for one ride and can make the journey worthwhile on hurdling debutant WHERE'S MY JET. Having shown promise in two outings for Cormac Farrell, the selection justified long odds-on favouritism on his first start for Willie Mullins at Tramore in November. That bumper was an ordinary contest but the five-year-old can improve for going over flights. Dual bumper winner Intense Approach was beaten when coming down on hurdling debut before being highly tried in a Grade 2 at Kelso in March. He will be primed for a big run at his local track. Crooked Tannie has the rating to contend but has been a beaten favourite on his last three starts and now drops in trip.

WHERE'S MY JET started out for Willie Mullins by winning a Tramore bumper last November and can follow up switched to hurdles. Point Gellibrand is second choice ahead of Crooked Tannie and Intense Approach.

One of only two rides for Paul Townend on the card, WHERE'S MY JET can make a winning start over hurdles

17:35 Nottingham Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

SHOWY put in a much improved display when hitting the frame over C&D last month and she goes off an unchanged mark. The daughter of Golden Horn looks to have lots in her favour and she can get her career up and running. The main threat is Isle of Wolves, who has been unfortunate to fill the runner-up spot on each of his last three outings. Of the remainder, Gert Lush makes the most appeal.

The losing sequence of ISLE OF WOLVES will put a few off but he's not done a lot wrong in finding only one too good on his last 3 outings and a deserved third success may well be forthcoming. Gert Lush is back on her last winning mark so she's of interest, along with Showy.

Isle Of Wolves looks set to go well again but the in-form IRV can better last year's close second in the corresponding race.

17:40 Naas Handicap 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TYDER showed notable improvement when second in an all-aged handicap over 1m1f at Leopardstown and can go one better off a 3lb higher mark. The Ribchester gelding stuck to his task well on that occasion and this extra furlong should suit. The Slatterys combined to land a winner with a similar type at Tipperary during the week. Dancing Steve had shown little before finishing third to Dream Ticket at Down Royal and, with a claimer now on board, can turn around that form on 10lb better terms. Empress Alma was not far off a subsequent maiden winner when fifth over a longer trip at Limerick. She still looked a little green there and can continue to progress.

Plenty are in with a shout. Adrian McGuinness has his string in good nick so his DANCING STEVE is taken to build on his excellent recent Down Royal third and gain his breakthrough victory. Tyder heads the list of dangers on the back of a good Leopardstown second, although the likes of Fine Print, Best Law and Dream Ticket can all have a say too in this highly competitive handicap.

Andy Slattery had a recent winner in this category and may bag another here with TYDER who showed notable improvement at Leopardstown

Doncaster win last June but still 3lb higher; no great record fresh; vulnerable.

17:48 Carlisle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

A tentative vote goes to RUNNINWILD, who went well from the front before weakening late on over this distance at Thirsk last month. Ann Duffield's charge has dropped 13lb below his last winning mark and the six-year-old may have too much for promising Hamilton third Giselles Izzy, as well as Golden Duke, who has strong claims on his penultimate second at Newcastle.

Veteran BRIAN THE SNAIL possibly still needed the run when fourth at Windsor 7 days ago and, back on his last winning mark, he could be worth siding with to strike in an open-looking affair. Music Society, eased in class, and Giselles Izzy are others to consider.

Music Society is a strong contender but GISELLES IZZY may have his measure this time.

17:53 Leicester Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Given Michael Herrington's excellent strike-rate at this venue, dual track-and-trip winner YOSHIMI merits consideration. Successful over C&D last August off a 3lb higher rating, the seven-year-old could make an impact if stepping forward from recent efforts. Handicap debutant King Of Charm could emerge as the main threat after finishing a fine second at Sandown when last seen, while Finbar's Lad was runner-up at Doncaster last month and he cannot be ruled out either.

TRAVIS confirmed the improvement shown at Pontefract last month when runner-up in a 0-88 back there last time and gets the nod to resume winning ways returning to a more suitable grade. Fellow 3-y-os King of Charm and Swordplay head up the opposition.

This can go to KING OF CHARM, who travelled well and was denied a clear run before keeping on well for second on his handicap debut.

17:58 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A competitive contest can go to ME WEE BONNIE LASS. One of three runners for Gavin Cromwell, the daughter of Doyen won three of her first four starts including a course and distance handicap in April and ran respectably in a mares' novice contest at the Punchestown festival. Back from a break, the five-year-old can show that she is still feasibly treated on her return to handicap company. Napper Tandy turned over a higher-rated rival in a Punchestown novice last month and his mark has been left unchanged. So Scottish went close at Killarney two runs back and can contend but the handicapper may have caught up with Redwood Queen who completed a hat-trick at Listowel a month ago.

Plenty to consider but SO SCOTTISH Is a regular in good-quality handicaps and having shaped well at Listowel a month ago, he now looks weighted to strike. Redwood Queen is improving at a rate of knots so has to be feared, with Petrol Head also of interest at the foot of the weights.

Very competitive with preference for C&D winner ME WEE BONNIE LASS, part of a strong Gavin Cromwell challenge

Royal Ascot too much to cope with last time but his debut effort was promising; yard run 2.

18:10 Nottingham Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

YES I'M MALI justified his place in the market when he was victorious by half a length on his debut at Wetherby last month, and he is likely to have huge improvement in him after that success. Richard Fahey's juvenile can carry his penalty to victory and remain unbeaten. Artagnan had Art Design a place behind when finishing second on his debut at Ripon before being well beaten in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot, but he can confirm the debut form. Diligently completes the shortlist.

Quite a few to consider but YES I'M MALI clearly possesses his fair share of ability to have won cosily on debut despite obvious signs of greenness so he can make the necessary step forward to defy a penalty. Artagnan will find this easier than the Windsor Castle so he's a threat, with Hallasan another expected to be bang there.

Mr Lightside looked quite promising at Redcar but conceding 6lb to CRACKING MAN might prove beyond him this time.

18:18 Carlisle Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

LINE OF FORCE could not have done it any easier when scoring on debut at Ripon last month and a 6lb penalty may not be enough to stop him from maintaining his unbeaten record. The son of Calyx is likely to have too much for Brooke Winder, who was an eye-catcher at Catterick last time out when detached and green early doors before keeping on well late in the piece. Gold Black is another open to improvement after a respectable debut effort at Hamilton.

LINE OF FORCE was an easy winner on his Ripon debut and looks good enough to defy a penalty. Richard Fahey's Gold Black should be wiser with his Hamilton debut under his belt and is the one likely to give the selection most to do unless the betting speaks strongly in favour of one of the newcomers.

This can go to LINE OF FORCE who showed a useful level of form when winning at Ripon and should improve for the run.

18:25 Leicester Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The consistent CONNIE'S ROSE is fancied to register an eighth career success. She has been in tremendous form this year, finishing out of the frame just once in eight starts, and looks the way to go despite the burden of top-weight. A winner at Wetherby in April, Canaria Queen arrives on the back of two good placed efforts and could give the selection the most to think about. Handicap debutants Mirroring and Military Queen are others to note.

CONNIE'S ROSE shaped as if still in good form at Chepstow 19 days ago and gets the nod to notch a second win of the year. Etoile d'Alexandre needs to get back on track but it's worth remembering the promise she showed on her York debut now setting out for George Boughey and strong market support would look significant. Canaria Queen did best of those held up on her most recent outing at Ripon and merits consideration, also.

She's the oldest runner in the line-up but CONNIE'S ROSE (nap) has been in excellent form in recent months and can strike again.

18:30 Bellewstown Maiden Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The locally-trained BIRMINGHAM ALABAMA gets the nod in this open contest. The winner of a point-to-point when in the care of Colin Bowe, the Ocovango bay wasn't knocked about on her track debut, finishing an encouraging fifth to Just For Love. Cottesloe Sunshine was two places ahead of the selection in third and she reopposes now. Godblessyourosie finished fourth on debut at Limerick in May and is another who wasn't given a hard time of it. Entitled to come on plenty for that effort, she should get a lot closer now. Placed on her last three starts, Slim Marvel certainly wouldn't be winning out of turn, while few would begrudge Ta Na La if she were to get her head in front. A strong case can be made for a few others, with the 104-rated Mill House Creek likely to give a good account of herself.

An opening-looking maiden hurdle with the vote going to COTTESLOW SUNSHINE, who has shaped with plenty of promise on both runs in this sphere and remains the sort to do better. Slim Marvel, Ashlia Dancer and Godblessyourosie are a trio of potential threats.

Consistency may be rewarded here for SLIM MARVEL (nap), who came up against a decent sort when a clear second at Wexford last time

18:40 Nottingham Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

SPRING IS SPRUNG struck by just under a length at Lingfield on his latest outing and a 4lb rise for that triumph could prove to be on the lenient side. With Dougie Costello taking over in the plate, he can complete the hat-trick. Faustus bounced back to form when accounting for his nearest rival by three-quarters of a length over C&D last month and he could get into contention again, while last-time-out winner Catch Cunningham is another to consider.

Having fallen a long way in the weights, NEVER DARK produced easily his best effort of 2024 when third at Newcastle last week and he now looks ready to cash in. Catch Cunningham certainly wasn't winning our of turn at Leicester and he commands respect, with hat-trick seeking Spring Is Sprung demanding a mention, too.

A small field but competitive nonetheless with four last-time-out winners. JENEVER is preferred to Catch Cunningham.

18:48 Carlisle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

GOLDEN RAINBOW and Rainbow Rain have developed quite the rivalry of late, and it is the former who is taken to come out on top again. He was value for more than the winning margin of a head when hanging right and still managing to see off Tracy Waggott's charge at Thirsk last month, and a 3lb rise for that success looks manageable. A capable sort on his day, John Kirkup is another to consider.

RAINBOW RAIN has been knocking on the door lately and this might be the day he comes good again. South Parade is low mileage for a sprinter and impressed with the way she travelled at Thirsk last time so she's second choice ahead of fellow 3-y-o Dc Flyer.

A chance is taken on RAMON DI LORIA who might have needed his last two runs and now returns to the scene of his most recent turf win.

18:55 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Michael Appleby has his string in good order and his Midnight Missile, who sneaks in at the foot of the weights, could run well. He could only finish seventh at Bath last time out but it would come as no surprise to see an improved display from three-year-old, having been dropped 4lb in the handicap. The vote, however, goes to KALAMA SUNRISE. She completed a hat-trick of victories over 1m when scoring comfortably at Ffos Las 13 days ago and did so with enough in hand to suggest she can defy a 7lb rise. Charlatan produced a solid second at Newmarket last time out off a 1lb lower mark and should remain competitive.

KALAMA SUNRISE completed a quick-fire hat-trick with plenty up her sleeve at Ffos Las 2 weeks ago so could still be ahead of her mark despite a 7 lb rise. Cobh Harbour took a step back in the right direction at Bath so rates the main threat ahead of the consistent Charlatan.

Kalama Sunrise is respected but AMAYRETTO won a fast-ground nursery quite stylishly in the autumn and is preferred.

19:00 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

THE MASS PATH looks the safest option in this weak affair. A close third at Limerick on his penultimate start, he again had to settle for minor honours when tried over fences at Clonmel last month. Returning to the smaller obstacles now, he can be expected to go close. The subject of strong market support, Moneynabane disappointed on his debut for Ian Donoghue at Downpatrick last month. Successful at the northern venue in October, the Doyen six-year-old is capable of making an impact. A good third of 17 on his second try in handicap company at Punchestown, Kalaroun is a leading contender for the father and son team of Conor and Charlie O'Dwyer. Former Ballydoyle inmate Cape Bridgewater is another of interest on his handicap debut, while Lucky Storm, On My Bike and Boskill Borden (first-time blinkers) all warrant respect.

THE MASS PATH has been threatening to come good recently, including on his chasing debut at Clonmel last month, so he remains of firm interest back over hurdles. On My Bike will benefit from a return to this trip and heads up the opposition, along with Kalaroun, who stepped up appreciably on his reappearance when third at Punchestown 4 weeks ago.

With solid runs over hurdles and fences on his last two starts, THE MASS PATH can get off the mark today.

19:10 Nottingham Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Better was expected of Rayat at Thirsk last time, but having weakened quickly over the mile that day he is worth a second look now eased in trip. Vince Lombardi was narrowly denied at Ffos Las recently and must be respected. Preference, however, is for RAY VONN. The four-year-old is now two from two over C&D following May's narrow success and he could extended that record raised just 3lb. Dark Dreamer is also noted.

A competitive handicap with RAY VONN taken to make it 3-3 over C&D. Dark Dreamer and Vince Lombardi are dangers, while Godolphin's Rayat might be worth another chance.

Vince Lombardi went close at Ffos Las last time but the quirky RAY VONN may be able to extended his unbeaten C&D record.

19:20 Carlisle Maiden (Class 5) 11f Race Class Flow

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

INCENSED put in a career best when a short-head second over 1m3f at Kempton last month and it would be no surprise to see Andrew Balding's filly go one better here. That said, Cabrera was also narrowly denied on her most recent outing at Haydock and could give the selection plenty to think about. Kitty Furnival edges out Lady La Fay to be best of the rest.

CABRERA shaped best last time and the winner has come out and run well since, so she's worth chancing to get the better of Incensed for all that she's also looked a useful filly in the making. Kitty Furnival is another one to consider but her latest effort was a touch underwhelming.

Top of the list is INCENSED, who went down only to a useful prospect at Kempton last time. Cabrera may follow her home.

19:30 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A three-time winner on the level, RIYAMI might be able open his account over flights. A solid fifth of 23 in a stronger contest than this at Leopardstown over Christmas, he since filled the runner-up spot when sent off favourite at Kilbeggan. Upped in trip now, it'll be disappointing if the 102-rated five-year-old isn't involved towards the business end in a contest of this quality. The winner of this very race in 2022 and third 12 months ago, Inforapenny is a definite danger. Placed on two of his last three starts, another bold bid can be expected from the Mark Fahey-trained seven-year-old. Handicap debutant Burru has some eye-catching bits of form to his name and could come alive in the market with Philip Byrnes an interesting jockey booking.

RIYAMI was strong in the betting and shaped well in defeat after 10 weeks off at Kilbeggan, paying the price very late on for a big move into contention leaving the back straight. This longer trip will suit and he can strike. Inforapenny and Hypersonic Missile are among the other key players.

RIYAMI can improve enough from his hurdles comeback at Kilbeggan to get off the mark in this sphere.

19:40 Nottingham Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Having been narrowly denied at Windsor on his penultimate start, GLOBAL ASSET made no mistake at Newmarket next time. A 7lb rise looks a little harsh but William Haggas has his string in a rich vein of form and it would come as no surprise were he to find enough improvement to strike again. Blessed Boy didn't appear to see out 1m2f at Chelmsford in May but it could be a different story now dropped in trip with blinkers applied for the first time. Bill's Baar is another to consider.

GLOBAL ASSET is improving with each start and can follow up his Newmarket success. Debora's Dream is feared most ahead of Bill's Baar.

Newmarket winner GLOBAL ASSET smacks of a typically progressive Haggas handicapper. Bill's Baar is second choice.

19:50 Carlisle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Liberty Bird has to be respected following her Beverley success 11 days ago, but marginal preference is for ISLA BELLA. The daughter of Land Force was second in a valuable seller at York last time and that form suggests that an opening mark of 67 should be workable. The rest all need to improve but Greek Gift and Cable Rate are the pick of them.

GREEK GIFT represents shrewd connections and has left the impression that there's a bigger effort in her, so she's fancied to defy a lowly opening mark at the possible expense of Liberty Bird, who improved markedly to open her account at Beverley last time. Isla Bella also warrants consideration in a thin race.

Solid form is thin on the ground and the suggestion is GREEK GIFT who has had a break and should be suited by today's step up in trip.

20:00 Bellewstown Handicap Hurdle 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

While he steps into uncharted territory trip wise, COMO PARK is the suggestion in this competitive affair. A bit disappointing on his first few tries over flights, he made the breakthrough at Cork in November and has performed with credit in good quality contests since. Last seen finishing a fine fourth of 23 at the Punchestown Festival, he is tried over three-miles for the first time now. Second and third to So They Tell Me at Punchestown last month, Donkey Years and Everglow both look the have strong claims. On what was his debut for Ian Donoghue, the latter ran with plenty of credit on his first start since December, and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a few places better here. Beaten by just a nose at Kilbeggan last month, Donacheady Gale is sure to have plenty of supporters, while others for the shortlist are Getaway Charlie, Club Manager and top-weight Dollar Value.

COMO PARK's fourth at Punchestown is a strong piece of form and he boasts a likeable profile, so he takes preference over Donacheady Gale, who finished to good effect when runner-up at Kilbeggan recently. Donkey Years also makes plenty of appeal with cheekpieces refitted on the back of a solid display.

After a fine comeback run/stable debut in third at Punchestown, when he went off at 66/1, EVERGLOW can be expected to improve enough.

20:10 Nottingham Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Now that the penny has dropped for FORTNUM after a relatively comfortable success over C&D last time out, George Boughey's charge is likely to have plenty more to offer off a 5lb higher mark. The three-year-old can uphold form with Emerald City (third), despite being 6lb worse off at the weights for a little over three lengths, while Inappropriate must also enter calculations on the back of a placed effort at Yarmouth in April.

FORTNUM relished the step up to this trip when making a successful handicap debut here recently and can follow up. Inappropriate probably has races in him, while Fram Castle remains with potential.

Fortnum still looks feasibly treated up 5lb but INAPPROPRIATE (nap) brings strong form claims on his third at Yarmouth.

20:20 Carlisle Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

In a competitive affair where a case can be made for many, HELTER SKELTER gets a tentative vote. Rebecca Menzies' charge was unsuited by the way the race developed when seventh over 7f at Ayr on his penultimate start, prior to finishing an eye-catching second over C&D last month. Sporting first-time blinkers off 1lb higher, a bold bid is anticipated. Orbaan got back to winning ways over this track and trip latest and he is respected upped 6lb, while Barley completes the shortlist.

LAHAB was considerably better than the result when a staying-on seventh behind Orbaan in the Carlisle Bell 10 days ago and, if he can sit a bit handier this time, he could be capable of turning the tables with his old rival. Barley won the consolation race at the same meeting and deserves respect.

This can go to ORBAAN (nap) who had been treading water for the best part of a year but was an emphatic winner of the Bell last time.

20:30 Bellewstown NH Flat Race 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The top three are the ones to focus on here, with preference for THE PASSING WIFE. Bought for 48,000 pounds after winning a point-to-point for Brian Linehan, he claimed a bumper on his second start for current connections and has performed with credit in high quality contests since. A fine third when last seen at the Punchestown Festival, he had no less than seven previous winners behind, and a reproduction of that effort should see him hard to beat. Placed and beaten by smart types on her first two outings at Ballinrobe, Gers Gigi made the breakthrough at Downpatrick last month and appears the main danger with Harry Swan aboard. Jackson Lamb also got off the mark at Downpatrick and while he was a decisive winner, it wasn't a strong race.

THE PASSING WIFE, Jackson Lamb and Gers Gigi are also closely matched at the weights but the first-named has the most substance to his form and he's taken to prevail in a race that the trio will likely dominate.

Such an impressive bumper winner at Downpatrick on return, it is difficult to oppose JACKSON LAMB with Patrick Mullins taking over

20:40 Nottingham Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

DAARIS may have only one career win to his name, but that came in this contest last year and Kevin Frost's charge enters this year's renewal in consistent form. A respectable third over C&D last time out, the five-year-old gets the vote ahead of the progressive Lincoln Rockstar, who beat a subsequent winner at Beverley last time out and may improve for the step up in trip. The unexposed Yurinov and Kissininthebackrow are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

CLOUDY ROSE remains in good form and gets the vote back up in trip. Castel Gandolfo is very interesting back on the level, while Lincoln Rockstar and the consistent Daaris also have claims.

Russian Rumour and Daaris are respected but LINCOLN ROCKSTAR has been in good form for her new yard and should stay 1m6f.

(6) Rampant 80/1, Maiden who ran up to very best when second at Newcastle (10.2f) in August but disappointed final 3 starts for Ewan Whillans. Needs to hit the ground running now starting out for new yard.
Out of sorts for previous yard in the autumn; off since; a contender on August form (1m2f).

20:50 Carlisle Handicap (Class 6) 9f Race Class Flow

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

SHAHNAZ (first) got the better of Ledger (third) when the pair met over an extended mile at Hamilton last month and, even though the latter is 2lb better off at the weights this time around, she can confirm her superiority over that rival en route to bringing up a double. Star Start looks the pick of the remainder off 4lb lower than his last winning mark and, provided the application of blinkers has the desired effect, he can earn himself a spot on the podium.

STAR START has yet to fully fire this campaign but he was far from disgraced when finishing midfield at Doncaster 8 days ago and, in a change of headgear from a further reduced mark, he could represent a spot of value having won over this C&D last summer. Hamilton-scorer Shahnaz and Ledger, who continues in good form, are others fancied to be firmly in the shake-up.

Shahnaz and Ledger are in good form but perhaps SOLANNA can revive now back on turf off his favourable mark.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
