---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (4.5/1 +10%) Castle Way |
4.5/1(+10%) | (1) Castle Way 4.5/1, Dual winner at 2 but still improved significantly when making a winning reappearance in 1¼m listed race on the Rowley Course here in May. Takes a 3f jump in trip now but does shape as if he'll stay further. Likely capable of better again. Led 5f out in 1m2f Listed race at Newmarket in early May and won in clearcut style. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (0.67/1 +51%) Tower Of London |
0.67/1(+51%) | (6) Tower Of London 0.67/1, Form has taken off since stepping up to 1½m, winning a Leopardstown listed race and the Ulster Derby (Handicap) last month. More to come up in grade and leading claims. Smooth win in 1m5f Ulster Derby (handicap) at Down Royal puts him into serious contention. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (4.5/1 -64%) Saint George |
4.5/1(-64%) | (4) Saint George 4.5/1, Won novice at Southwell and handicap at Doncaster before finding a big chunk of improvement to finish an excellent 1½ lengths second of 14 to Gregory in the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (1¾m, good) 3 weeks ago. Big player. Second in the 1m6f Group 2 Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot last time; lots to like. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (10/1 -33%) Klondike |
10/1(-33%) | (2) Klondike 10/1, 600,000 gns Galileo colt who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in Newbury maiden (11f, heavy) in April. Much improved (despite still looking green) when 3 lengths second to Gregory in Goodwood listed (11f again) 5 weeks later. Tongue tie added. Should relish this longer trip. Two races; put in his place in 1m3f Listed race at Goodwood but stuck on very well for 2nd. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (25/1 -150%) Land Legend |
25/1(-150%) | (3) Land Legend 25/1, Excellent second to the smart Chesspiece in 1½m handicap at York's Dante meeting and not seen to best effect in King George Handicap at Royal Ascot since, staying on when badly hampered inside final 1f. Remains capable of better but this is a big jump in class. Will stay and should improve again but he is bottom of the list on form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (100/1 -52%) Think First |
100/1(-52%) | (5) Think First 100/1, Useful colt but well behind Saint George in Doncaster handicap and Queen's Vase on his last 2 starts and surely booked for another struggle. Well held behind Saint George over about 1m6f on last two outings. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Saint George ran a career best when a close second in the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot and has very strong claims dropping back a furlong in trip. Going up in trip looks a good move for Castle Way, having dominated a Listed contest over 1m2f on the Rowley Mile course in April and has bundles of potential. Slight preference, though, is for TOWER OF LONDON, who looks to be improving at a rate of knots and having won a premier handicap off a mark of 99 last time with his head in his chest, the son of Galileo looks another potential star stayer for connections.
An interesting renewal. TOWER OF LONDON looked on a steep upward curve when scoring twice in Ireland last month and can extend his winning run to three. Queen's Vase runner-up Saint George rates an obvious danger, while Klondike has come a long way in a short time and should have more to offer.
Five of these bring clear potential but it's SAINT GEORGE (nap) and Tower Of London who head them on form.

Aris De Crat |
(6) (50/1 +24%)50/1(+24%) | (6) Aris De Crat 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 50/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (2m) 29 days ago, unsuited by step up in trip. Makes turf debut. Visor on first time. Well down the field when upped to 2m at Lingfield last month and now 0-7. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (9) (11/1 -10%) Chief Craftsman |
11/1(-10%) | (9) Chief Craftsman 11/1, One win from 30 Flat runs. Creditable third of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (1¾m, 15/2) 17 days ago. One of 2 good contenders for the stable. Has modest 1-31 strike-rate but stayed on for third over 1m6f on AW last month; new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (4/1 -14%) Marbuzet |
4/1(-14%) | (5) Marbuzet 4/1, 6/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (1¾m, good to soft) 5 days ago, faring best of those held up. Good shout. Placed on his last three appearances (1m4f-1m6f); contender if stamina holds out here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (3/1 +54%) Pound Off You |
3/1(+54%) | (8) Pound Off You 3/1, Made winning return from long absence in 1¾m handicap at Nottingham in May. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (9/2) at Redcar (1¾m, good to firm) 19 days ago. Missed last year but returned from long layoff with Nottingham win in May; considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (12/1 -60%) Toutatis |
12/1(-60%) | (12) Toutatis 12/1, Good second of 7 in handicap at Wetherby (2m, good to firm, 33/1) 30 days ago, although he would have won but for wandering around in the final 1f. 0-20 overall but ran big race in defeat at Wetherby last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (10/1 -18%) My Brother Jack |
10/1(-18%) | (7) My Brother Jack 10/1, Fit form hurdling, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (1¾m, 5/1) 17 days ago. Ran fairly well when back on the Flat last month and now 1lb below last winning mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (14) (9/1 -20%) Foursome |
9/1(-20%) | (14) Foursome 9/1, Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Leicester 14 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Each-way shout under Serena Brotherton. Competitive off lowly marks in recent weeks and experienced amateur booked here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (40/1 +20%) With A Start |
40/1(+20%) | (1) With A Start 40/1, 80/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Southwell (2m, good to soft) 37 days ago. Also well held on the Flat at Nottingham in May. Others are more obvious. Out of form on the Flat and over hurdles for new stable this year; lots to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (6/1 -9%) Aighear |
6/1(-9%) | (10) Aighear 6/1, 15/2, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (13f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Another who can't be discounted. Yet to hit top gear this year but on a workable mark and any rain will be a bonus. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (8/1 -33%) Never No Trouble |
8/1(-33%) | (2) Never No Trouble 8/1, Arrives in form from hurdling (runner-up twice last month). Also second off this mark when last seen on the Flat a year ago. One to consider. Consistent over hurdles for this stable and completely unexposed over 2m on the Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (15) (66/1 -32%) Robeam |
66/1(-32%) | (15) Robeam 66/1, Unreliable type. Has struggled over hurdles in recent months and hard to fancy back on the Flat. Badly out of sorts over hurdles in recent months; makes very limited appeal on Flat return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (66/1 +34%) Smart Connection |
66/1(+34%) | (11) Smart Connection 66/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 125/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (23f, good) 20 days ago. Poor on last Flat run. Easy to look elsewhere. Has struggled on the Flat and over hurdles since switching to current stable in the autumn. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (7/1 +18%) Sir Joseph Swan |
7/1(+18%) | (4) Sir Joseph Swan 7/1, Hooded first time, first run since leaving Amanda Perrett when seventh of 9 in handicap (17/2) at Hamilton (13f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Entitled to strip fitter for the outing and represents last year's winning trainer/jockey combination. Made low-key seasonal/stable debut this month but might well come on for the run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (3) (200/1 -203%) Numero Uno |
200/1(-203%) | (3) Numero Uno 200/1, Has struggled badly over hurdles for this yard and it remains to be seen whether a switch back to the Flat improves matters. Has struggled in points and a selling hurdle this year; first Flat run since 2019. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (13) (150/1 -50%) Hartside |
150/1(-50%) | (13) Hartside 150/1, Off 664 days, last of 13 in handicap (150/1) at Wolverhampton (1¾m) on return 17 days ago. Can only watch. Teenager who was beaten out of sight at Wolverhampton last month, after a long absence. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
There would be no more deserving winner than MARBUZET, who has found only one too strong on each of his last two appearances, including at Nottingham only last weekend. He has shaped like the step up from 1m6f will be in his favour and is preferred to Never No Trouble, for whom there are no stamina concerns because he has been in good form over obstacles. Toutatis almost sprung a 33/1 surprise at Wetherby, but needs to back that performance up.
MARBUZET has been knocking on the door and might prove the answer to this opener for amateur riders. Never No Trouble has been in good form over hurdles and is much respected on her first Flat start for the Donald McCain stable. The selection's stablemate Chief Craftsman is another likely to be on the premises.
Representing a trainer-jockey combination with a good record in amateur riders' races, SIR JOSEPH SWAN might be the answer.

1st (8) (3.33/1 +33%) Whatacracker |
3.33/1(+33%) | (8) Whatacracker 3.33/1, 4/1, bit below form third of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good) 14 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Yet to win but isn't fully exposed; has run respectably on last two starts; place claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (14/1 -40%) Glittering Choice |
14/1(-40%) | (4) Glittering Choice 14/1, Course winner. Last of 7 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 13/2) 24 days ago. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Sole win came at this venue nearly a year ago; well beaten on turf reappearance though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (1.5/1 -65%) Robusto |
1.5/1(-65%) | (6) Robusto 1.5/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 2/1, career best when cosily winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 12 days ago. Has more to offer so rates a big player despite a 6 lb rise. Has won two of last three starts and, although up in weights/grade, is a progressive sort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (6.5/1 -30%) Kehlani |
6.5/1(-30%) | (5) Kehlani 6.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Brighton in May. Very good third of 6 in handicap (9/2) at Ffos Las (10f, good) 9 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Unexposed sort who ran well on handicap debut and should stay this trip; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (10/1 +60%) Explorers Way |
10/1(+60%) | (7) Explorers Way 10/1, 18/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, ninth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 12 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Regressive maiden; down a fair way in the weights and blinkers tried but remains risky. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (7/1 +72%) Iolani |
7/1(+72%) | (9) Iolani 7/1, C&D winner. 11/1, good third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, good) 13 days ago. Not discounted back in this sphere. Not won for nearly two years and, although running respectably, he'll have to raise game. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (33/1 -65%) Loom Large |
33/1(-65%) | (2) Loom Large 33/1, First run since leaving Andrew Oliver when last of 14 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D (soft) 15 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Good-ground winner in Ireland; below best last two turf runs but better ground could help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (28/1 -155%) Three Platoon |
28/1(-155%) | (3) Three Platoon 28/1, 5/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f). Off 6 months. Down in trip with work to do. Below best at end of last year and hasn't been seen since; enough to take on trust. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (14/1 +58%) Pretty Bouquet |
14/1(+58%) | (1) Pretty Bouquet 14/1, C&D winner. Last of 8 in handicap (40/1) at Pontefract (12f, good) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time with more needed. C&D winner last year but soundly beaten both runs this year; enough to prove at present. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This could go the way of the unexposed KEHLANI, who arrives here following a staying-on third over 1m2f on her handicap debut at Ffos Las last week. With more progression likely, she is taken to get the better of the progressive Robusto, who has struck at Salisbury and Lingfield since going handicapping but has a 6lb rise to contend with for the most recent of those. Whatacracker is another to bear in mind following a fair third at Newmarket.
A few of these arrive with question marks against them so ROBUSTO looks the way to go on the back of his cosy Lingfield success. Ffos Las third Kehlani appeals as the one to give Sir Mark Prescott's improver most to do ahead of C&D winner Iolani.
This looks between KEHLANI and Robusto, with preference for the Jamie Osborne runner, who should be suited by this longer trip

1st (2) (16/1 +36%) Jasour |
16/1(+36%) | (2) Jasour 16/1, Confirmed debut promise when taking 8-runner maiden at Nottingham (5f, good) 39 days ago. Ought to progress further but asked a much sterner question now. Won at Nottingham last time; unexposed but he's well down this pack on bare form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/1 +0%) Lake Forest |
7/1(+0%) | (3) Lake Forest 7/1, Quickened clear to land 7-runner minor event at Haydock (6f, firm) on debut 29 days ago. Should have learnt plenty from that experience so warrants respect. Well on top at the finish in Haydock novice event on debut; brings lots of potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (40/1 +50%) Toca Madera |
40/1(+50%) | (9) Toca Madera 40/1, Confirmed debut promise when scoring decisively in a Bath novice last month but was unable to land a blow in Norfolk Stakes latest and this doesn't look any easier. Finished behind two of these rivals in the Norfolk; stiff task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (6.5/1 +59%) Thunder Blue |
6.5/1(+59%) | (8) Thunder Blue 6.5/1, Opened account in fine style at Goodwood (6f) last month and far from disgraced when fifth of 14 in Norfolk Stakes since. Likely to give another good account. Creditable fifth in the Norfolk but is held by Malc on that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (3.5/1 -27%) Purosangue |
3.5/1(-27%) | (7) Purosangue 3.5/1, Bred for speed and duly made an impressive racecourse bow when making all in minor event at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago. Looks sure to progress and is not taken lightly. Powered clear for an impressive success at Haydock and looks a smart prospect; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (3.33/1 +17%) Malc |
3.33/1(+17%) | (4) Malc 3.33/1, Off the mark first time up at Carlisle in May and improved significantly on that form when second of 14 in Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Ought to stay this trip and sets the standard here. Runner-up in the Norfolk last time, appearing to record a useful rating; leading chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (5.5/1 -22%) Mountain Bear |
5.5/1(-22%) | (6) Mountain Bear 5.5/1, Promising sort who took a step forward from his debut effort when landing 18-runner maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 4/1) last month. Further progress on the cards and he is one for the shortlist. Driven out to win at the Curragh two weeks ago; open to further improvement for top yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (18/1 +40%) Maximum Impact |
18/1(+40%) | (5) Maximum Impact 18/1, Followed up Leicester debut success with victory at Ascot (5f) in May but clearly wasn't right when last home in Windsor Castle latest and may be best watched. Flopped badly in the Windsor Castle and can be opposed after that dismal effort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (5.5/1 +0%) Chief Mankato |
5.5/1(+0%) | (1) Chief Mankato 5.5/1, Sioux Nation colt who came from off the pace to make a winning debut in Windsor novice (6f) in May. That form looks solid and he likely has more to offer yet. Form of Windsor win has substance; withdrawn (upset in stalls) from the Coventry since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Purosangue was impressive on his debut at Haydock, but there has to be a slight worry about him being on the best part of the track that day and it might be worth taking him on. Mountain Bear improved plenty on his debut to win nicely on his second start and that level of form would put him in the mix with further improvement to come. There was so much to like about the run of MALC in the Norfolk Stakes at Royal Ascot, keeping on really well in the closing stages and suggesting the extra yardage should be ideal. Any improvement on that Ascot effort would make him very hard to beat.
Preference is for MOUNTAIN BEAR, who is in top hands and remains open to improvement on the back of his maiden success at the Curragh last month. Norfolk Stakes runner-up Malc is feared most with the step up in trip likely to be in his favour, whilst Purosangue hails from a yard whose juveniles tend to come on plenty from their first outing and is also much respected.
The two most appealing contenders are the clearcut Haydock winners PUROSANGUE and Lake Forest in that order of preference.

1st (3) (11/1 +8%) Be Proud |
11/1(+8%) | (3) Be Proud 11/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (5f, firm, 11/2) 19 days ago, nearest finish. More prolific on AW but he's down in the weights and a revival isn't out of the question. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (7/1 -40%) Jenever |
7/1(-40%) | (8) Jenever 7/1, Latest win at Wetherby in June. Evens, good second of 13 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 30 days ago, nailed only on the line. Should go well again. Progressive sprinter who was pipped at the post on AW latest; still has time to do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (16) (22/1 -10%) Mehmo |
22/1(-10%) | (16) Mehmo 22/1, Unreliable sort. Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. Sixth of 8 in handicap (3/1) at Nottingham (5f, good) 14 days ago. Visor back on. Course winner; beaten fav in a Class 6 at Nottingham latest; tough race in which to revive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (12/1 -33%) Stone Of Destiny |
12/1(-33%) | (1) Stone Of Destiny 12/1, Won the Portland over C&D in 2020 but this untrustworthy individual has drawn a blank in 31 starts since. 18/1, bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, heavy) 68 days ago. More than capable of getting involved dropped to a 0-70 for the first time, though. Won valuable C&D h'cap in 2020; hard to win with but this the weakest race he's contested. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (14/1 -17%) Hurstwood |
14/1(-17%) | (11) Hurstwood 14/1, Latest win at Ripon in June. Creditable third of 9 in handicap there (6f, good to firm) since. Ripon win last month and followed it with a solid third latest; up in class today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (7/1 +56%) Thornaby Pearl |
7/1(+56%) | (4) Thornaby Pearl 7/1, C&D winner in 2021 and also second over C&D on her penultimate 2022 start. Much depends on whether he's primed after 8 months off. Course winner in 2021; drew a blank in 2022; can go well fresh and on a handy mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (7.5/1 +25%) J R Cavagin |
7.5/1(+25%) | (6) J R Cavagin 7.5/1, C&D winner. Visored for 1st time, below form fifth of 11 in handicap (10/3) at Pontefract (5f, good) 10 days ago, not ideally placed. C&D winner; below par latest but threatening beforehand; one for the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (14/1 +0%) Prince Of Bel Lir |
14/1(+0%) | (2) Prince Of Bel Lir 14/1, C&D winner. 14/1, sixth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 16 days ago, leading until 2f out. Being eased another 2 lb can only help. Three 6f wins last season; ran okay at Newbury latest; career-low mark; could bounce back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (40/1 -60%) Elzaal |
40/1(-60%) | (5) Elzaal 40/1, Has notched 4 5f AW wins at Newcastle this year. Eleventh of 14 in handicap there (5f) 13 days ago, not clear run. Back on turf for the first time this year now. Made giant strides on AW since last turf run but perhaps a shade high in the weights now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (5/1 +17%) South Dakota Sioux |
5/1(+17%) | (14) South Dakota Sioux 5/1, Latest win at Wetherby in June. 14/1, unlucky not to finish closer when sixth of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 10 days ago, badly hampered under 1f out. One to consider. Strong traveller; had excuses since his Wetherby win and he's one to take seriously. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (7/1 -17%) Storm Fox |
7/1(-17%) | (12) Storm Fox 7/1, Winner at Thirsk in June. 15/8, good second of 7 in handicap at Leicester (5f, good to firm) 26 days ago, just failing. Going the right way and much respected. Improved for cheekpieces the last twice; this trip should suit; still not fully exposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (7) (20/1 +9%) Lily In The Jungle |
20/1(+9%) | (7) Lily In The Jungle 20/1, Latest win at Ripon (6f) in May. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap there (6f, good) 22 days ago. Goes well at Ripon & ran creditably in a stronger race there last month; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (12/1 +14%) Belsito |
12/1(+14%) | (10) Belsito 12/1, Fair form. Not seen to best effect when seventh of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 18/1) 13 days ago, hampered. Remains unexposed for a sprinter. 0-4 in handicaps this year but has shown promise and this trip could suit him well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (13) (11/1 +21%) Concierge |
11/1(+21%) | (13) Concierge 11/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 34 days ago. On losing run; in fair form this year but this looks competitive enough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (17) (20/1 -25%) Parr Fire |
20/1(-25%) | (17) Parr Fire 20/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Visored first time, good third of 13 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm, 14/1) 13 days ago. Another who could make her presence felt. Course winner; promising effort over 6f last time and this shorter trip in her favour. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The penny dropping for STORM FOX has coincided with her encountering quick conditions, with a Thirsk triumph sandwiched by narrow defeats at Redcar and Leicester. Providing there isn't a deluge, she can continue on her upward curve at the chief expense of Jenever, whose latest form figures are identical to the selection's. Hurstwood has been in fine fettle at Ripon, while Miss Belladonna and King Of Speed are just two others to consider.
STORM FOX is a lightly-raced sprinter making steady progress and might be the way to go tackling largely older opposition. Fellow 3-y-o South Dakota Sioux arrives in form and is second choice ahead of Jessica Macey's Jenever.
Parr Fire shaped well here 13 days ago but she may have to give best to the strong-travelling SOUTH DAKOTA SIOUX.

1st (10) (5.5/1 +45%) Me Wee Bonnie Lass |
5.5/1(+45%) | (10) Me Wee Bonnie Lass 5.5/1, Doyen filly. Closely related to fairly useful hunter chaser Ask d'Man and half-sister to a winner on Flat in Italy. Dam unraced. Worth a precautionary market check in the betting for clues on debut. Newcomer from respected source, market strength likely significant. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (3/1 +33%) Bayonetta |
3/1(+33%) | (1) Bayonetta 3/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in minor event hurdle at Down Royal (16.8f, good, 8/1) 41 days ago. Jumped badly left at Down Royal latest; cheekpieces now left off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (1.88/1 +46%) Gaye Winnie |
1.88/1(+46%) | (3) Gaye Winnie 1.88/1, Twice-raced maiden. 16/1, ran to a similar level as on debut when sixth of 20 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (18.5f, heavy) in January. In good hands and progress not ruled out returning from 6 months off. Not disgraced in better maidens last winter; off 6 months but Elliott pick so respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (6.5/1 -160%) Mote Park |
6.5/1(-160%) | (4) Mote Park 6.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 10/1, went backwards from debut when tenth of 11 in bumper at Tramore (16.2f, soft) in December. Feasible to think she can get back on track now hurdling returning from 7 months off. Tongue strap on 1st time. Bumper runs disappointing; tongue-tied for hurdles debut and can't be ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (7/1 +13%) Spice Diva |
7/1(+13%) | (6) Spice Diva 7/1, Arcadio mare. Dam, unraced, closely related to top-class staying chaser (Grand National winner) Many Clouds. Off mark in points at fifth attempt (Apr 29) and well worth a check in the betting for clues ahead of Rules/hurdles bow. Won Moira mares' maiden point-to-point in April (yielding), fifth attempt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (28/1 +72%) All Ways And Ever |
28/1(+72%) | (9) All Ways And Ever 28/1, Little form in various company on Flat. 25/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 10 in claimer at Limerick (11.5f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Poor Flat maiden, can only be watched on hurdling debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (250/1 -67%) Struell Duchess |
250/1(-67%) | (7) Struell Duchess 250/1, Once-raced maiden. 100/1, pulled up in minor event hurdle at Down Royal (16.8f, good) on NH debut 41 days ago, pulled up when awkward 3 out. Pulled up after some moderate jumping on belated rules debut at Down Royal last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (22/1 -300%) Dina Leen |
22/1(-300%) | (2) Dina Leen 22/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Sixth of 9 in novice hurdle at Thurles (23.3f, good to soft, 7/1) on hurdles bow. Off 8 months. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving W. P. Mullins. Underwhelming efforts on both starts for Willie Mullins last year; likely best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (22/1 +67%) Sunshine Theatre |
22/1(+67%) | (8) Sunshine Theatre 22/1, Pulled up sole start in points. Once-raced maiden under Rules. 33/1, ninth of 18 in novice hurdle at Listowel (16f, good) on NH debut 38 days ago, losing place from 3 out. Ran okay on last month's hurdles debut; loads more required here though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|RO| (5) (14/1 -75%) Sea Aster |
14/1(-75%) | (5) Sea Aster 14/1, Yeats mare. 12/1, seventh of 17 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good) on NH debut 33 days ago. May well do better. All the better for last month's debut run; market likely significant. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
An each-way chance is taken on newcomer ME WEE BONNIE LASS. Gavin Cromwell's stable is firing in plenty of winners and this four-year-old filly is a half-sister to a very smart hunter chaser. Any market moves for her would be significant as the form of her rivals isn't insurmountable. Gordon Elliott runs two, with Jack Kennedy partnering Gaye Winnie. This Walk In The Park mare has finished sixth in a pair of big-field maidens at Punchestown and Fairyhouse. She is returning off a break at a track Elliott does ever so well at. Mote Park didn't cut much ice in two bumpers, but Willie Mullins sends her over hurdles on her return to action and she is likely to do much better. Spice Diva won a point-to-point in April and is another to consider on track debut.
Those with previous hurdles experience don't set a tall standard and it may pay to take a chance on MOTE PARK. She offered something on the first of her 2 starts in bumpers during the second half of last year and it would come as no surprise to see her make an impact now her attentions switch to hurdling. Gaye Winnie and Sea Aster head the dangers, with Spice Diva also worth a second look.
A chance is taken on Gordon Elliott's GAYE WINNIE, who showed some promise in stronger maidens last winter

1st (4) (10/1 -18%) Impeller |
10/1(-18%) | (4) Impeller 10/1, 40/1, good second of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 10 days ago, keeping on well. In the picture. Had things in his favour when returning to form last time; not certain to back that up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5.5/1 +35%) Elladora |
5.5/1(+35%) | (3) Elladora 5.5/1, Latest win at Hamilton in May. 4/1, creditable fourth of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, firm) 29 days ago. One for the shortlist. Mainly consistent sort who has been in good form this year; should continue to run well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (8/1 +56%) Run This Way |
8/1(+56%) | (6) Run This Way 8/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Newcastle (5f) 13 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces on 1st time with more needed. Not won since reappearance last year but on a good mark if cheekpieces make a difference. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (20/1 +39%) White Umbrella |
20/1(+39%) | (8) White Umbrella 20/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, only sixth of 9 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 28/1) 20 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Yet to win a handicap and hasn't done enough of late to make her of interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (3.6/1 +40%) Atomise |
3.6/1(+40%) | (5) Atomise 3.6/1, 17/2, creditable third of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 10 days ago. Can go well again. Yet to win a handicap but ran well last time; claims if widest draw isn't a hindrance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (3.33/1 -11%) Yorkstone |
3.33/1(-11%) | (13) Yorkstone 3.33/1, Very good second of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, firm) 19 days ago. On the upgrade so he's a player nudged up just 1 lb. Yet to win and sometimes starts slowly but has shown enough to suggest he can win races. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (9/1 -6%) Havana Rum |
9/1(-6%) | (9) Havana Rum 9/1, Good second of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 12/1) 22 days ago. Not taken lightly. Back to form at Hamilton last time; that form looks shaky but he may be capable of better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (5/1 +58%) Glorious Rio |
5/1(+58%) | (7) Glorious Rio 5/1, C&D winner. Only sixth of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Not won since August but, although running respectably, he looks better over a bare 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (22/1 -10%) Sherdil |
22/1(-10%) | (2) Sherdil 22/1, 10/1, not seen to best effect when sixth of 11 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good) 10 days ago, hampered. In the mix. Dual winner at Beverley last summer; patchy form since, though, and needs to raise game. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (33/1 -230%) Redrosezorro |
33/1(-230%) | (1) Redrosezorro 33/1, 14/1, landed 10-runner handicap at Catterick (6f, good) 59 days ago. This C&D winner needs considering. Back to winning ways at Catterick in May; only 2lb higher and has won here; interesting. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Only narrowly denied when sent off at 40/1 at Pontefract last week, IMPELLER is fancied to take another step forward, especially considering he is 2lb well-in compared to his revised rating. Redrosezorro was a game winner at Catterick in May and might give him most to think about off 2lb higher, while Yorkstone and Dream Deal add further spice to the race.
A few with chances but YORKSTONE comes here on the up and with the form of his recent Ayr second having been franked he is taken to get off the mark. Pontefract runner-up Impeller and Hamilton second Havana Rum appeal as the pair to give the selection most to do and can chase him home in that order.
An open event can go the way of DREAM DEAL, who returned to form when second to one that had the run of things at Pontefract last time.

1st (8) (4/1 +33%) Quinault |
4/1(+33%) | (8) Quinault 4/1, Sprinter on a roll, making it 5-5 in handicaps when landing valuable 3-y-o contest at York under this apprentice last month, edging out Washington Heights with a couple of today's rivals also in the frame. Suspect he'll have even more to offer and could defy 5 lb rise. Unbeaten in 5 handicaps at 6f/7f; winning margin shrinking but he's again a major player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/1 +36%) Mill Stream |
7/1(+36%) | (3) Mill Stream 7/1, Useful winning juvenile who comes here on the back of a good 1¼ lengths third of 21 to Quinault in valuable handicap at York (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. May do better still so he's well in the mix. Smart C&D form 12 months ago; solid 3rd of 21 at York last month; can be involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (22/1 +33%) Dark Thirty |
22/1(+33%) | (7) Dark Thirty 22/1, Back to winning ways at York (7f) in May and good effort at Goodwood next time. Poorly placed and excuses in the Britannia 3 weeks ago but not sure this return to sprinting will be in his favour. Made running for 6f (debut) and 7f wins; return to this trip could open a door. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (4.5/1 +25%) Washington Heights |
4.5/1(+25%) | (5) Washington Heights 4.5/1, Strong-travelling sort who arrives on the up, runner-up in 6f handicaps on his last 3 starts, chasing home Shaquille (now rated 123) here on the first occasion then Quinault twice. Headed only late on at York and seems sure to go well again. Strong credentials for big-field 6f handicaps; up 4lb for latest defeat; Ryan Moore up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (16) (40/1 -82%) Executive Decision |
40/1(-82%) | (16) Executive Decision 40/1, Juvenile winner for Jessica Harrington (sold 82,000 gns) and made a promising start for new yard in the Palace of Holyroodhouse Handicap at Royal Ascot, taking strong hold and nearest finish. Interesting back up in trip on the back of that. Belied big price with staying-on 5th in major 5f Ascot handicap; back at 6f but tough task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (11/1 -22%) Tough Enough |
11/1(-22%) | (13) Tough Enough 11/1, Went the right way as a 2-y-o and struck on handicap debut back on turf after 7 months at Windsor 5 weeks ago (Eminency third, good form). Up 4 lb and could have even more to offer. Not amenable to restraint but found plenty for 6f wins on AW and turf; more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (17) (8/1 +20%) Be Frank |
8/1(+20%) | (17) Be Frank 8/1, Successful return in 6f Salisbury maiden (good form) and improved again when landing Windsor handicap impressively 24 days ago, staying on strongly. There is more to come from him. Much improved as 3yo, winning twice at 6f; return to stiff finish can suit; can do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (16/1 -33%) Tajalla |
16/1(-33%) | (4) Tajalla 16/1, Improving colt who landed 5f novices on Rowley course here and at Hamitlon before posting an excellent 1¼ lengths second of 7 to Lady Hamana in listed race at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Can do better still now handicapping up in trip. Promising at 5f; now tackles very different type of race on the step up to 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (28/1 -12%) Ferrous |
28/1(-12%) | (14) Ferrous 28/1, Struck at Goodwood (5f) in May and shaped as if still in form at Windsor next time, forced to try and make up his ground on the outer flank. Back up in trip with in-form apprentice booked. This trip has caught him out in handicaps and best form is at 5f; up against it back at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (9/1 +25%) Eminency |
9/1(+25%) | (10) Eminency 9/1, Sprinter going the right way, again chasing home Quinault and Washington Heights at York last time, settling better. Application of cheekpieces looks a good move. Suited by big-field 6f handicaps; return to uphill finish will suit; form claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (28/1 -27%) Alpha Capture |
28/1(-27%) | (2) Alpha Capture 28/1, Useful gelding. Tongue strap on when good second in conditions event at Southwell but he came in last when blinkered in Lingfield listed event in March. Needs to bounce back on his handicap debut. Good 6f turf form as 2yo; well held on AW in March; return to grass could suit; aids off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (12) (20/1 +20%) Redemption Time |
20/1(+20%) | (12) Redemption Time 20/1, Juvenile winner who has run well in competitive 3-y-o York handicaps the last twice, staying on in sixth behind Quinault and co last time. Clearly needs a bit more to come out on top. Two good runs in 5f and 6f handicaps at York on last two starts; needs extra. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (9) (11/1 -100%) Frankness |
11/1(-100%) | (9) Frankness 11/1, Scored twice as a 2-y-o and resumed winning ways with something to spare in 6-runner handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) last month. Shaped well in the 3-y-o 5f handicap at Royal Ascot (met trouble, finished strongly) subsequently. Return to 6f will suit and yard have a good record in this. Came clear in fine style on latest 6f run; solid 6th in big 5f handicap at Ascot since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (1) (12/1 +0%) Desert Cop |
12/1(+0%) | (1) Desert Cop 12/1, Has come a long way in a short time, posting a smart effort to win conditions race at Newcastle (6f, AW) on Good Friday. Good sixth of 17 to Bradsell in King's Stand at Royal Ascot last time so needs considering now going handicapping for yard (1 of 2 runners) with good record in this. Talented at 6f/5f; creditable 6th in King's Stand at Ascot; competitive in first handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (6) (40/1 -43%) Rousing Encore |
40/1(-43%) | (6) Rousing Encore 40/1, Useful colt who was second in Group 2 Mill Reef at Newbury last season. Has found life tough this term, well held on handicap debut behind Quinault and co at York last time. Runner-up in 6f Group 2 as 2yo; well back on recent handicap debut at York; gelded since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (11) (20/1 -25%) Animate |
20/1(-25%) | (11) Animate 20/1, Dual AW winner over 7f and went close behind smart prospect at Newcastle 12 days ago, improving and looking the likely winner for much of the final furlong. Same mark and not dismissed. Both wins at 7f on AW but nearly managed a successful drop to 6f at Newcastle; has scope. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
A super competitive race and another rematch between Washington Heights and QUINAULT. The former has done nothing wrong in either of their last two clashes and deserves a prize of this nature, but the latter is on such a role and can bag his sixth win on the bounce, with things likely to set up ideally once more. Tajalla is completely unexposed and is likely to take a step forward so is very much respected. Cases can also be made for Desert Cop, Tough Enough and Be Frank who all have the ability to take the big pot on offer.
BE FRANK was strong at the finish when making a winning handicap debut at Windsor and there is more to come from him. He gets the vote in a red-hot contest. The form of last month's valuable 3-y-o York 6f handicap is well represented with the first 4 home, led by the thriving Quinault, who seems sure to go close again with old rival Washington Heights. Frankness is also considered.
Several have already proved themselves in big-field handicaps but TOUGH ENOUGH impressed at Windsor and has better to come.

Should have more to offer. Prominent throughout when fourth of 11 on debut at Windsor; ought to progress. |

2nd (2) (16/1 -60%) Blue Prince |
16/1(-60%) | (2) Blue Prince 16/1, Promising sort. 10/1, third of 5 in minor event at Newcastle (5f) 22 days ago. Up in trip. Big eye-catcher on debut when well backed and has more to offer. Showed promise on both 5f starts but needs to improve on this first attempt at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (13) (12/1 -33%) Welcome Dream |
12/1(-33%) | (13) Welcome Dream 12/1, Foaled February 5. Night of Thunder colt. Half-brother to winner up to 6.3f Amirat Alward, from a highly successful family for owners. Interesting on debut. With a good stable and has very good pedigree for this type of race. |

Half-brother to several winners, including high-class winner up to 1m Toormore and very smart winner up to 1m Estidhkaar. Obvious appeal on paper and top yard had a rare first-time-out winner last week. 270,000gns yearling; half-brother to 2yo Group 1 winner Toormore; interesting newcomer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (16/1 -100%) Sleven |
16/1(-100%) | (10) Sleven 16/1, 60,000 gns 2-y-o. Acclamation brother to 5f winner Banafsajjy. Dam, maiden (stayed 1½m), half-sister to smart winner up to 6f Justice Good. Fifth of 9 at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 7/1) on debut 15 days ago, not clear run. Likely to improve. Just a respectable fifth of nine on recent Salisbury debut; others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (1.25/1 +29%) Free Nation |
1.25/1(+29%) | (5) Free Nation 1.25/1, 100,000 gns yearling, Siyouni colt. Half-brother to numerous winners, including smart 6f winner Alphabet and useful winner up to 1m Aerion Power. Second of 9 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 7/4) on debut 17 days ago, shaping really well. Sure to improve and leading claims. Creditable second on recent Windsor debut and an obvious one for the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (125/1 -89%) Half Moon Rising |
125/1(-89%) | (6) Half Moon Rising 125/1, €28,000 foal, £52,000 yearling, Inns of Court colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 7.4f/1m winner Dragon Sun and 11.2f-13f winner Elara. 18/1, seventh of 8 in minor event at Newcastle (6f) on debut 14 days ago. Likely to need more time. Raced too freely and in rear throughout when 18-1 for recent debut at Newcastle (6f, AW). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (125/1 -89%) Primetime |
125/1(-89%) | (8) Primetime 125/1, 40,000 gns foal, €58,000 yearling, Time Test colt. Closely related to useful 2-y-o 6f winner Make Fast and half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 1m Cranberry and 9.5f winner Sun Festival. 28/1, last of 11 in maiden at Kempton (6f) on debut 15 days ago. Stable does well with 2yos but this colt was last of 11 when 28-1 for his recent debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||

66/1(-65%) | (12) Triggerman 66/1, Foaled April 30. 8,000 gns foal, 9,000 gns yearling, Ribchester colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Critical Data and 2-y-o 7f winner My Little Tip, both useful. Dam maiden.

Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Caturra and useful winner up to 1m Sir Arthur Dayne. One of the more expensive ones for his first-season sire and making a fair bit of appeal on paper he's one to note. 80,000gns yearling; bred for speed; no surprise if he features. |

11th (1) (8/1 +0%) Bandello |
8/1(+0%) | (1) Bandello 8/1, 18,000 gns foal, £80,000 2-y-o, Twilight Son colt. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, sister to useful 6f winner Strike Red. 9/1, fourth of 9 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) on debut 15 days ago, not knocked about. May well do better. Green in early stages of Carlisle debut but kept on for very respectable fourth. |

Closely related to 3 winners, including very smart winner up to 1m Aljamaaheer and 1¼m winner Athers. Dam 8.4f-1¼m winner. Closely related to 1m Group 2 winner Aljamaaheer but stable not known for 2yo winners. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Point Given represents top connections and makes plenty of appeal on pedigree, being a half-brother to Group 1-winning juvenile Toormore and Estidhkaar, who landed the Champagne Stakes here in 2014. Welcome Dream, who comes from the family of Queen's Logic, and Speeding Bullet are other newcomers of interest, but the vote goes to FREE NATION. Charlie Hills' colt filled the runner-up spot on debut at Windsor, when showing signs of inexperience, and he is expected to build on that display.
FREE NATION shaped with tons of promise when well backed and second on debut at Windsor recently and makes plenty of appeal with improvement on the cards. A number of interesting newcomers gives this a look of an intriguing maiden, Point Given, Speeding Bullet and Welcome Dream all debutants from top yards to keep an eye on.
Windsor runner-up FREE NATION probably sets a fairly good form standard and he is taken to put his experience to good use.

1st (12) (0.53/1 +65%) The Folkes Tiara |
0.53/1(+65%) | (12) The Folkes Tiara 0.53/1, Fairly useful chaser who matched best form in this sphere when creditable second of 13 in novice hurdle (11/8) at Tramore (16.8f, good) 40 days ago. Looks the one to beat. Frustrating maiden but could have found a good opportunity here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (5.5/1 -57%) Gino Drummer Boy |
5.5/1(-57%) | (5) Gino Drummer Boy 5.5/1, Fair hurdler. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form fourth of 14 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good, 11/4) 24 days ago. Not out of things. Bit to find with Colonel Bellew on Kilbeggan run, earlier form makes him a definite player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (22/1 -83%) Colonel Bellew |
22/1(-83%) | (3) Colonel Bellew 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Tongue strap on for 1st time, excellent third of 14 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good, 12/1) 24 days ago. Claims if building on that. Kilbeggan run encouraging but will need to jump better to be a feature here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (14/1 -75%) Art Of Silence |
14/1(-75%) | (1) Art Of Silence 14/1, Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. Ninth of 14 in handicap (10/1) at Leopardstown (15f, good) 28 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. 3/15 on last hurdle outing. Each-way claims. Bumper winner looks to have it to do here conceding weight. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (18/1 +45%) J'adore Chas |
18/1(+45%) | (15) J'adore Chas 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 12 in novice hurdle at this course (21.3f, good, 18/1) 25 days ago. Others more persuasive. Took a backward step here last month over 2m6f; down in trip here with a bit to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (100/1 +50%) Moneynabane |
100/1(+50%) | (9) Moneynabane 100/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Seventh of 9 in bumper (80/1) at this course (18.8f, good to soft) on bumper debut 26 days ago. Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Poor form in point-to-points and nothing yet to offer encouragement under rules. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (14/1 +44%) Liberty Flame |
14/1(+44%) | (7) Liberty Flame 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 18/1, fifth of 10 in bumper at Punchestown (16f, good). Off 9 months. Makes hurdles debut. Definite ability in bumpers last year so not one to rule out on hurdles debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (7/1 -27%) Now Is The Hour |
7/1(-27%) | (10) Now Is The Hour 7/1, €30,000 3-y-o, Westerner gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Katahdin, stayed 2½m, and fair chaser Mister Bells, stays 3¼m. Won on point debut and runner-up next time. Interesting Rules debutant. Points' winner wants an ease so rain will help; respected if ground softens. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (125/1 -25%) Temptation Time |
125/1(-25%) | (11) Temptation Time 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 11 in novice hurdle (100/1) at Sligo (17.6f, good) 30 days ago. Up against it. Beaten long way in both maidens; will be of more interest in handicaps in due course. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (66/1 -164%) Farrokh |
66/1(-164%) | (14) Farrokh 66/1, Once-raced maiden. 15/2, tenth of 17 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good) on NH debut 33 days ago. Should progress. Novicey round of jumping when never featuring on Punchestown debut; 4yo may need more time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (16/1 -60%) Irish Envoy |
16/1(-60%) | (2) Irish Envoy 16/1, Promising type. Second of 17 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.2f, good, 25/1) 33 days ago. Should have more to offer. Punchestown second encouraging but more likely needed to play a leading role here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (66/1 -230%) Farewellchancer |
66/1(-230%) | (4) Farewellchancer 66/1, Notnowcato gelding, first foal, dam, unraced, closely related to fairly useful hurdler (2m-2½m winner) Native Sparkle and half-sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 25f) Star To The North. Market check advised on debut. Debutant appears the lesser likely of the Elliott pair on jockey bookings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (6) (80/1 -142%) Instinct De Loup |
80/1(-142%) | (6) Instinct De Loup 80/1, €8,000 3-y-o, Puit D'or gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to Grand National winner Mon Mome. Newcomer likely all the better for the experience. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (8) (100/1 -52%) Mon Loulou |
100/1(-52%) | (8) Mon Loulou 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 125/1, eleventh of 16 in novice hurdle at Cork (24.8f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 68 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ian Patrick Donoghue. Fair form in bumpers but tailed off on hurdles debut at Cork; best watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NOW IS THE HOUR has skipped recent engagements at Down Royal and Bellewstown, but remains of interest. He won his sole point-to-point by a whopping 30 lengths in January and has switched to Gavin Cromwell for his track career. The Folkes Tiara is proving expensive for punters having been a beaten favourite on his last four starts over hurdles. A third place in a Grade B handicap chase at Punchestown in April stands out, though, and there should be one of these in him. Gino Drummer Boy came from a long way back for a never-dangerous fourth in Kilbeggan. He is likely to be a contender. Irish Envoy and Colonel Bellew are in the mix for prize money.
THE FOLKES TIARA has proved consistent over both fences and hurdles and can gain a deserved first success here. Irish Envoy is feared most of those with experience whilst Now Is The Hour looks the pick of the newcomers.
Although a beaten favourite several times in maidens it could pay to persist with THE FOLKES TIARA (nap) in an ordinary maiden

1st (3) (2.75/1 -38%) Sophia's Starlight |
2.75/1(-38%) | (3) Sophia's Starlight 2.75/1, Improved model this year, taking another step forward in form terms when making all at Newmarket (6f) 19 days ago, drawing clear over 1f out. 6 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent her making her presence felt once more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (7.5/1 +12%) Happier |
7.5/1(+12%) | (7) Happier 7.5/1, Profitable filly out of a 1m winner. Race-by-race progress in trio of novice/maiden events this spring, off the mark in good style at Redcar (6f) in May. This stiff finish will hold no fears on that evidence now handicapping and likely there's more to come. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (5.5/1 +0%) Roshambo |
5.5/1(+0%) | (5) Roshambo 5.5/1, 10/3, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 29 days ago, having to wait for gap over 2f out and keeping on. Slow starts are becoming a concern, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (1.75/1 +47%) Slainte Mhath |
1.75/1(+47%) | (2) Slainte Mhath 1.75/1, Thriving mare who justified good support to gain third victory of the campaign at Hamilton (6f) 9 days ago, around 4 lengths clear and eased close home. No surprise to see her out under a penalty and big shout once more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (14/1 -40%) Georgiava |
14/1(-40%) | (6) Georgiava 14/1, Brighton maiden winner who followed up under a penalty in a C&D novice last September. Good fourth in valuable sales race thereafter and heavy ground may have caught her out on final outing in November. Market may prove a useful guide as to expectations on return. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (5.5/1 +27%) May Blossom |
5.5/1(+27%) | (1) May Blossom 5.5/1, 3-time winner last term who has dipped below last winning mark and she again ran creditably when third of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (5f) 6 days ago, staying on final 1f. No surprise to see her give another good account. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (28/1 -155%) Cashew |
28/1(-155%) | (4) Cashew 28/1, Losing run stretches back to 2021 but mark has steadily eased and cemented solid start for new stable when third in 11-runner Chepstow handicap (6f) in May. Possible she'll find a couple too good again here, though. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A case can be made for several of these, but SLAINTE MHATH impressed when securing a comfortable success at Hamilton. She does have to shoulder a 5lb penalty but she was eased towards the finish, suggesting there will be more to come. Sophia's Starlight has gone up 6lb following a Newmarket victory but gets the danger vote from Cashew, who finished a creditable third at Chepstow on her latest run.
This may well end up concerning thriving pair SLAINTE MHATH and Sophia's Starlight, with the former just edging the vote on the back her facile success at Hamilton 9 days ago. Happier, who is also going the right way, may emerge best of the others.
The handicapper may have taken a chance with Redcar winner HAPPIER, who is capable of better on this handicap debut.

1st (4) (3.5/1 +0%) Israr |
3.5/1(+0%) | (4) Israr 3.5/1, Progressed in handicaps last season, winning at Newbury and Doncaster, and took form to another level when just denied in Group 3 at Newbury on return. Decent second in listed race at York since and may give Adayar most to do. Good second on both starts this term; needs extra if he's to beat Adayar. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (0.33/1 +18%) Adayar |
0.33/1(+18%) | (2) Adayar 0.33/1, Derby and King George winner in 2021 who was seen just twice last year, going down narrowly in Champion Stakes at Ascot. Made comfortable winning return in rearranged Gordon Richards on the Rowley Mile before respectable third in Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot. Hard to beat back up in trip. Has not hit the heights of 2021 again but still brings much the strongest form claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (18/1 -80%) Global Storm |
18/1(-80%) | (1) Global Storm 18/1, Allowed to set a modest gallop and dictated matters when winning Dubai City of Gold at Meydan in March but circumstances weren't so favourable back there in Dubai Gold Cup. Back on track when 6 lengths second to Hurricane Lane in Jockey Club Stakes here since. Up against it under a penalty. Placed in this race last year and in a Group 2 on the other Newmarket course this May. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (28/1 -75%) Grand Alliance |
28/1(-75%) | (3) Grand Alliance 28/1, Smart gelding who gained an overdue success at pattern level in the Group 3 John Porter on his reappearance but struggled in Hardwicke at Royal Ascot since. Bit to find. Major work to do even on best form and he did not fire on latest outing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
This represents a drop in grade for 2021 Derby and King George hero ADAYAR, who is fancied to bounce back following a fair third behind Mostahdaf in the Prince Of Wales at Royal Ascot last month. He should be far too good for the opposition if anywhere near the pick of his form, while recent Listed runner-up Israr can give him plenty to think about eased in distance. The selection's stablemate, Global Storm, is a Group 2 winner in his own right and is by no means a back marker, while Grand Alliance completes the quartet.
An excellent opportunity for the high-class ADAYAR to resume winning ways back down in class. Israr is a clear next best.
His top-level wins were in 2021 but ADAYAR's limited appearances since still make him the one to beat. Israr may follow him home.

3.33/1(+17%) | (5) How's The Guvnor 3.33/1, Twice-raced colt. 4/1, improved when second of 8 at Nottingham (6.1f, good to firm) 28 days ago. One to consider. Stepped up on debut effort when second at Nottingham last time; should go well again. |

2nd (12) (12/1 +25%) Shimmering Moon |
12/1(+25%) | (12) Shimmering Moon 12/1, Foaled February 13. £48,000 yearling, Kuroshio filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 6f/7f winner Shimmering Dawn and winner up to 6f Zeeoneandonly. Dam 6f/7f winner. £48,000 yearling and half-sister to several winners; market to guide on debut. |

3rd (2) (8.5/1 -70%) Classy Boy |
8.5/1(-70%) | (2) Classy Boy 8.5/1, Foaled April 21. €45,000 yearling, £160,000 2-y-o, Calyx colt. Half-brother to 1½m winner Bright Eyed Eagle and 2-y-o 1m winner San Martino. Dam 9f/1¼m (Blue Wind Stakes) winner who stayed 12.5f. Cost plenty and lots to like on paper. Half-brother to winners ranging from a mile to 1m4f; trainer strong in the 2yo department. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (66/1 +0%) Cuban Fiesta |
66/1(+0%) | (3) Cuban Fiesta 66/1, 11,000 gns foal, 22,000 gns yearling, 65,000 gns 2-y-o, Havana Grey colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f winner Miss American Pie. Tenth of 11 in maiden (22/1) at Kempton (6f) on debut 15 days ago, very slowly away. Soundly beaten on AW on debut; switches to turf with a good deal to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (10/1 -33%) The Bitter Moose |
10/1(-33%) | (10) The Bitter Moose 10/1, 140,000 gns yearling, Kodiac colt. Dam, 2-y-o 1m winner, half-sister to smart 1¼m winner Impressionist. 11/2, fifth of 9 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) on debut 22 days ago. That race has thrown up winners and he should have more to offer. Promise on debut at Hamilton and entitled to improve; this course should suit and claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (14/1 +44%) Fenlander |
14/1(+44%) | (4) Fenlander 14/1, Foaled April 10. Territories gelding. Closely related to 6f-7f winner Special Mayson and half-brother to 7f winner John Clare and useful 1¾m winner Eileendover. Dam 1m winner. Plenty of winners in pedigree; stable not noted for debut winners but market check needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (5.5/1 +8%) Project Geofin |
5.5/1(+8%) | (8) Project Geofin 5.5/1, Promising type. Fourth of 13 in maiden at Carlisle (5.8f, soft, 9/4) 24 days ago, slowly away again but best work finish. Visor on 1st time. Should progress. Fair form on both starts and now gets a visor; interesting runner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (200/1 -203%) Whatwouldiknow |
200/1(-203%) | (11) Whatwouldiknow 200/1, Fifth of 10 in minor event (125/1) at Beverley (5f, good) 58 days ago, not knocked about. Hard to fancy. Needs to better everything he's done so far if he's to win this; more one for nurseries. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (5.5/1 -100%) Mr Wonderful |
5.5/1(-100%) | (7) Mr Wonderful 5.5/1, Foaled April 18. 37,000 gns yearling, €185,000 2-y-o, Profitable colt. Closely related to winner up to 7f Pockley. Dam, 5f/6f winner, sister to smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Parliament Square, third in Prix Morny. Some tasty entries and he's one to note on debut. 185,000euros breeze-up purchase; closely related to 5f-7f AW winner; interesting newcomer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (3.33/1 +26%) Khamsin |
3.33/1(+26%) | (6) Khamsin 3.33/1, $25,000 yearling, £195,000 2-y-o, Flatter colt. Half-brother to minor US winner by Bolt d'Oro. Dam, runner-up at 5f in US, sister to US Grade 1 7f winner Capo Bastone. Fourth of 7 at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm, 6/1) on debut 50 days ago, not knocked about. May well do better. Ran well despite a slow start in race that is working out at Yarmouth on debut; claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (150/1 -127%) Seahorse Syd |
150/1(-127%) | (9) Seahorse Syd 150/1, Twice-raced colt. 14/1, eighth of 13 in minor event at Redcar (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Hasn't done enough on either start to suggest he's of any interest on these terms. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (33/1 -175%) Alghalib |
33/1(-175%) | (1) Alghalib 33/1, Twice-raced colt. Sixth of 9 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 10/3) 22 days ago. Looks one for nurseries. Similar form both starts but latest run is working out well and should go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Karl Burke has enjoyed a fine season to date with his juveniles and Classy Boy commands plenty of respect on debut following his 160,000-pound purchase at the Goffs UK Breeze-Up sale. Similar comments apply for Mr Wonderful, who represents Amo Racing and cost 185,000 euros at the Goresbridge Breeze-Up, but the pair may have to play second fiddle to KHAMSIN. Slowly away on debut, he finished off his race nicely when fourth at Yarmouth and is open to a fair amount of improvement. Nottingham runner-up How's The Guvnor and Project Geofin, who sports a visor for the first time, complete the shortlist.
MR WONDERFUL and Classy Boy are a couple of very interesting newcomers and it would be no surprise to see one of them make a winning start. How's The Guvnor improved when second at Nottingham and surely has a race in him.
This can go to THE BITTER MOOSE, who ran well at Hamilton on debut and who is entitled to improve a fair bit for the experience

1st (6) (3.33/1 +76%) Thornleigh Frank |
3.33/1(+76%) | (6) Thornleigh Frank 3.33/1, Creditable seventh of 15 in novice hurdle (10/1) at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good) 44 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Not discounted with more to offer. Beaten a fair way in three maidens; of limited appeal now entering handicaps. |

2nd (7) (7/1 -40%) C'est Quelqu'un |
7/1(-40%) | (7) C'est Quelqu'un 7/1, Fifth of 7 in handicap chase (5/1) at Leicester (22.7f, good) 135 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Sean Curran. Not ruled out. GBP8,000 buy out of Sean Curran's; respected from top yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (28/1 +0%) Breagagh |
28/1(+0%) | (8) Breagagh 28/1, Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, good, 14/1) 20 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Below form on last hurdle outing so more is needed. Longstanding maiden under both codes and not easy to see him changing that here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (8/1 -7%) Kellie's Dream |
8/1(-7%) | (9) Kellie's Dream 8/1, One win from 3 runs last season. Winner in hurdle at Wexford in September. Respectable seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (19.9f, good to soft, 5/1). Off 9 months but she's no forlorn hope. Returns from 10 months' absence here but runs well fresh so respected from an in-form yard. |

5th (4) (3.5/1 +13%) Clear The Clouds |
3.5/1(+13%) | (4) Clear The Clouds 3.5/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (21.8f, good to soft, 9/2) 69 days ago. Considered. Player on the best of his form although wants it softer. |

6th (12) (25/1 +38%) Maxios Show |
25/1(+38%) | (12) Maxios Show 25/1, Last of 15 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft, 18/1) 51 days ago, dropping away quickly. Difficult ask. Record in handicaps dismal; professional takes over from amateur here but of little appeal. |

7th (11) (33/1 +50%) Ivane |
33/1(+50%) | (11) Ivane 33/1, 80/1, eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft) 31 days ago, going in snatches. Others appeal more. Not progressing over hurdles, never sighted on handicap debut last time; opposable. |

10th (13) (8.5/1 -42%) Chancer Dancer |
8.5/1(-42%) | (13) Chancer Dancer 8.5/1, Encouraging sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle (7/2) at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago, fading late on. On a lenient mark so she's interesting now back in trip. Limited maiden but trip/ground to suit so place claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (12/1 -50%) Ask The Leader |
12/1(-50%) | (3) Ask The Leader 12/1, Course winner. In third and still going well when fell 3 out in handicap chase at Tipperary (19.5f, soft, 10/1) 9 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles and in the picture. Downpatrick specialist ideally wants a bit further but has to be respected. |

12th (2) (10/1 +29%) Trishknowsbest |
10/1(+29%) | (2) Trishknowsbest 10/1, C&D winner. Unseated rider 2nd in handicap chase at Tipperary (17f, good to soft, 10/1) 70 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. First run for yard after leaving Ian Patrick Donoghue. Hood back on and not ruled out. C&D winner last year, needs to bounce back from 2 below-par runs in the spring; yard debut. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
C'EST QUELQU'UN can make an impact on his first start for Gordon Elliott. His form was hit-or-miss in Britain, but he was good enough to win a handicap hurdle and a handicap chase there. He doesn't look harshly treated on a mark of 92 for this contest and Elliott often does well with recruits from Britain. Sovereign Duke is back to the sort of trip he finished a close second over at Tipperary in May and should be involved. Clear The Clouds has been running over further but certainly has form which gives him a chance, while Ask The Leader has won three handicap hurdles at this track, which entitles her to respect.
CHANCER DANCER should benefit from this drop back in trip judged on her fading Uttoxeter sixth last time out and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark now at the chief expense of unexposed pair Millies Dream and Thornleigh Frank who look to have better days ahead of them.
No outstanding candidate and a chance is taken on the reappearing KELLIE'S DREAM from the in-form Andy Slattery yard

3/1(+88%) | (3) Dream Selection 3/1, Eighth of 9 in minor event at Haydock (6f, good to firm, 25/1) on debut 28 days ago, slowly away. Lots more is needed. Soundly beaten at Haydock on debut and, although this isn't strong, she's best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (9/1 +18%) On The Bubble |
9/1(+18%) | (6) On The Bubble 9/1, Foaled May 29. Land Force filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful winner up to 1¼m Alternative Fact and 7f winner Four Poets. Dam maiden. Market can guide. Half-sister to winners and market should be the best guide to what is expected on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (28/1 +44%) Tees Comet |
28/1(+44%) | (8) Tees Comet 28/1, Twelfth of 13 in maiden at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 22/1) on debut 26 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Easy in the market and well beaten on debut at Leicester; best watched once again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (3.33/1 +33%) Emilshaan |
3.33/1(+33%) | (4) Emilshaan 3.33/1, Foaled April 17. 41,000 gns yearling, Havana Gold filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including very smart winner up to 1m Sirius Prospect and smart US winner up to 10.5f Bama Breeze. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. Interesting newcomer. 41,000gns yearling and half-sister to three winners; market likely best guide on debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Not exactly a daunting standard set by those with experience, so it might pay to side with the Karl Burke-trained ERANTHIS. The daughter of Saxon Warrior, a 350,000gns purchase in October last year, is related to some useful types and it would be no surprise were she to make an immediate impact for her in-form stable. Fellow newcomers Emilshaan and Carabella make enough appeal on paper to warrant a market check.
The market should reveal plenty here but Karl Burke took this event 12 months ago and his well-related Saxon Warrior filly ERANTHIS, who fetched 350,000gns as a yearling, is taken to make a winning start at the chief expense of fellow newcomers Emilshaan and Carabella who both offer potential too.
An ordinary event can go the way of 350,000gns newcomer ERANTHIS, whose trainer has a 25% strike-rate with 2yos this season

Dam, 2-y-o 5f/6f winner, half-sister to useful 1m-11f winner Super Say. Shaped quite well when third from a wide stall at Pontefract 18 days and she's sure to progress. Pontefract 3rd (6f, good to firm) puts her into calculations, especially with potential. |

2nd (2) (7/1 +30%) Dubai Treasure |
7/1(+30%) | (2) Dubai Treasure 7/1, Foaled February 14. Exceed And Excel filly. Dam 1¼m winner. One to note on debut for leading connections. First foal; dam 1m2f winner (RPR 92) out of 1m 2yo winning sister to Raven's Pass. |

Connections enjoyed plenty of success with 2-yos this season. 260,000gns yearling; Irish Group 1 entry; connections have made a big splash with 2yos. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (2.5/1 +38%) Key To Cotai |
2.5/1(+38%) | (4) Key To Cotai 2.5/1, Promising individual. Knew a lot more than on debut when second in novice event at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago, staying on well. Likely to improve again and she's very much in the mix. 20-1 second at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 15 days ago was much better than on debut. |

5th (1) (14/1 -27%) Bourgeoisie |

7/1(+42%) | (3) Jumeirah Breeze 7/1, Cost plenty as a yearling and showed much more than on debut when second of 6 in maiden at this C&D (good) 13 days ago. This is probably a deeper race. 25-1, much improved and kept on well when second of six in maiden here (6f, good). |

9th (6) (12/1 +0%) Miss Information |

Of obvious interest on debut. 90,000gns yearling; first-season sire has had plenty of winners; strong stable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (11/1 -83%) Rating |
11/1(-83%) | (8) Rating 11/1, Ran to a fair level when third on second start at Kempton last month. Flying too high in Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot (6f) and this more realistic. Kempton 3rd (6f, AW); not so hot on turf either side, latest start admittedly Royal Ascot. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Ornellaia boasts an appealing pedigree and Dominic Ffrench Davis' 260,000gns purchase should not be underestimated on her racecourse bow, but experience could prove crucial when considering KEY TO COTAI's chances. The daughter of Cotai Glory built on her racecourse debut to finish second over this distance at Salisbury last month and there is likely more to come from her. Jumeirah Breeze and Lexington Belle also warrant a market check with their most recent runs in mind.
SACRED ANGEL's debut from a wide draw at Pontefract 18 days ago was full of promise and with progress on the cards, she could be the answer. Key To Cotai just about sets the standard and her limit hasn't been reached, so she's a big threat, with Ornellaia and Dubai Treasure a couple of very interesting debutantes.
The newcomers need a very close look and Ornellaia has a Group 1 entry. SACRED ANGEL is preferred among those who have run.

200/1(-300%) | (9) Roys Pursuit 200/1, 66/1, eighth of 12 in C&D maiden (good to firm) on debut 12 days ago. Never dangerous in C&D maiden 12 days ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Holkham Bay has to concede 5lb and upwards on his first run for just over a year having got off the mark on his second start at Lingfield, and MOLAQAB is preferred. Third here in November on his racecourse bow, he shaped in need of his return at Newmarket's Craven meeting and is likely to be sharper now, especially with his stable in much better form. Swiss Star has placed on both her outings so far and is respected along with newcomer Mezon.
SWISS STAR has shown enough to suggest a win isn't far away and she's narrowly preferred to fellow Newmarket raider Molaqab. Viscountess Renard showed a bit on her Wetherby debut and may prove best of the rest unless the betting vibes are strong surrounding newcomer Mezon.
With a good chance on the figures, SWISS STAR is taken to open her account at the third attempt. Molaqab is second choice.

1st (3) (1.1/1 +8%) Foxfire Glow |
1.1/1(+8%) | (3) Foxfire Glow 1.1/1, Fair hurdler. 5/4, respectable third of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (18.8f, good) 25 days ago. Solid form claims. Frustrating maiden but sets a clear standard providing he stays this longer trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (3.33/1 -21%) Howaya C D And E |
3.33/1(-21%) | (1) Howaya C D And E 3.33/1, Fair hurdler. Off 8 months before running-on second of 10 in novice hurdle at this course (18.8f, good to soft) 26 days ago, barely adequate test. Big shout now her stamina is drawn out more. Recent second here holds place claims again and won't mind rain. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (12/1 -20%) Kalko Blue |
12/1(-20%) | (5) Kalko Blue 12/1, €11,000 3-y-o, Khalkevi gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser in France No Risk For You. Maiden pointer, unplaced last time (Apr 16). In good hands so not ruled out. Ordinary form in points', not an obvious one to make an immediate impact under rules. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (1.75/1 +42%) Scorsese |
1.75/1(+42%) | (6) Scorsese 1.75/1, €21,000 3-y-o. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/very smart chaser (winner around 2m) I'msingingtheblues. Got off mark in points at second attempt (Mar 5) so he needs considering. Points' winner; market likely good indicator on hurdles debut from respected source. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (40/1 -150%) Another Nightmare |
40/1(-150%) | (8) Another Nightmare 40/1, Mahler mare. Dam, showed nothing in bumpers, half-sister to Champion Hurdle winner (stayed 2½m) Rooster Booster. Maiden pointer, third last time (May 21). Considered. Placed in points'; may need this hurdles debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (150/1 -50%) Struell Duke |
150/1(-50%) | (7) Struell Duke 150/1, September Storm gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to ungenuine but fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Tullyraine. Failed to complete all 3 starts in points in 2021. Maiden pointer absent for guts of two years and can only be watched on belated rules debut. |

7th (2) (50/1 +0%) Fisichella |

Makes hurdles debut with more to do. Too keen when well held on last month's hurdles debut at Listowel; can only be watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (80/1 -60%) Hees Dynamite |
80/1(-60%) | (4) Hees Dynamite 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good) 44 days ago. Significantly up in trip with more required. Signs of ability in three runs over hurdles but should do better in handicaps. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Perhaps a further step up in trip can see FOXFIRE GLOW make the breakthrough. The five-year-old was a beaten favourite in third on his last outing here, but that represented his best performance to date when upped in trip to an extended 2m2f. He now gets to tackle an extended 2m5f. There won't be any stamina issues for Scorsese, who makes his track debut after landing a point-to-point in March. Howaya C D And E has been placed five times over hurdles and is well in the hunt for more prize money. Another Nightmare and Kalko Blue could be best of the remainder.
HOWAYA C D AND E should prove well suited by this return to further having taken second late on over 2m3f here last time and she can edge out Foxfire Glow, who holds the edge on form but wasn't at his very best when runner-up here last month. Hurdling newcomer Scorsese brings winning point form and needs considering too.
Another ordinary maiden in which FOXFIRE GLOW sets the standard, albeit on form over shorter trips

1st (5) (3/1 -20%) Overnight Oats |
3/1(-20%) | (5) Overnight Oats 3/1, 11/1 and hooded for 1st time, good third of 10 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Expected to be bang there off an easing mark. Put below-par effort behind when third at Newbury last time; claims if that is reproduced. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (2/1 +27%) Kynsa |
2/1(+27%) | (7) Kynsa 2/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good third of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 12/1) 35 days ago. Progressing well recently so she's very much one to consider eased 1 lb here. Improved on penultimate start and ran well behind a couple of subsequent winners latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (4/1 +11%) Mount King |
4/1(+11%) | (4) Mount King 4/1, Respectable second of 7 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 11/2) 16 days ago, no match for winner. Can give another good account. Has slipped in the weights and respectable effort last time but needs to fare better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (8.5/1 +15%) Girl From Italy |
8.5/1(+15%) | (9) Girl From Italy 8.5/1, In good form until only fifth of 6 in handicap (14/1) at Ripon (8f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly if getting back on track. Below best at Ripon last time but claims if back to the form of her Beverley second. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (33/1 -136%) Starshot |
33/1(-136%) | (6) Starshot 33/1, First run since leaving George Boughey when ninth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 33/1) 14 days ago. Has work to do. Well beaten on first run for yard on AW last month; needs to return to best back on grass. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (18/1 -100%) Blame The Farrier |
18/1(-100%) | (1) Blame The Farrier 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 50/1, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (7.8f, soft) 24 days ago. In the mix. Respectable run on handicap debut; down in trip but others make more appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (5/1 +50%) Reginald Charles |
5/1(+50%) | (2) Reginald Charles 5/1, Visored for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap at this course (7.8f, good to soft, 20/1) 41 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Uneven form so far; hood left off and needs to raise game to notch first win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (28/1 -133%) Silverlode |
28/1(-133%) | (8) Silverlode 28/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap (15/2) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 51 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Blinkers back on, tongue strap on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Well beaten on last three starts and enough to prove returned to turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (80/1 -220%) Keep Me Stable |
80/1(-220%) | (3) Keep Me Stable 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, soft, 50/1) 9 months ago on her final run for Richard Hannon. Makes handicap debut with more to do. Modicum of ability last year; enough to prove on reappearance/first run for new team. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
It can often be difficult to come from off the pace at Chelmsford, but KYNSA did well to finish third there last time out having been held up towards the rear. Eased 1lb in the ratings and back on turf, Jamie Osborne's filly can take another step forward and open her account. Mount King was no match for an impressive winner at Beverley, but that level of form would give him every chance here. Overnight Oats heads the remainder.
KYNSA made a good start to life in handicaps when third at Chelmsford and can gain her breakthrough success off a 1 lb lower mark. Newbury third Overnight Oats is feared most off an easing mark with Blame The Farrier and Mount King two more who can have a say in an open handicap.
The one that appeals most is KYNSA (nap), who showed improved form on her penultimate start and her latest AW form has been franked.

1st (5) (1.1/1 +56%) Nostrum |
1.1/1(+56%) | (5) Nostrum 1.1/1, Kingman colt who is a grand type physically and built on the considerable promise of his winning debut when taking Group 3 on the Rowley course here last autumn. Big effort when third in Dewhurst final start and is an obvious player down in grade for this return. Creditable third in the 2022 Dewhurst when last seen; leading player if in the same form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6/1 -33%) Embesto |
6/1(-33%) | (1) Embesto 6/1, Made a taking debut at Yarmouth, then followed up in a novice at Doncaster despite being on the 'wrong' part of the track. Remains open to considerable improvement and well worth a crack at this level. Impressive at Yarmouth then defied a penalty at Doncaster; promising colt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (11/1 -10%) New Endeavour |
11/1(-10%) | (4) New Endeavour 11/1, Doubled his tally in ready fashion at Kempton and showed he's every bit as good on turf when an excellent second in the Britannia at Royal Ascot last time. Capable of making his mark at this level. Useful form in handicaps last month; close second at Royal Ascot latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (6/1 -20%) Mostabshir |
6/1(-20%) | (3) Mostabshir 6/1, Winner of both starts in novice company (still green in the Craven in between) and acquitted himself quite well when sixth in St James's Palace Stakes at Royal Ascot last time. Drops back in grade and merits respect. Came up short in Group 1 at Royal Ascot but has possibilities back down in class. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (2.5/1 -33%) Imperial Emperor |
2.5/1(-33%) | (2) Imperial Emperor 2.5/1, Dubawi colt who made a successful start on Rowley course last year and maintained his unbeaten record from the front in C&D novice last month. Plenty more to come and could be up to landing the hat-trick. Well-bred colt who is 2-2, both wins at Newmarket; brings lots of potential; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (80/1 -21%) Wildfell |
80/1(-21%) | (6) Wildfell 80/1, Highly progressive since joining this stable and completed the four-timer with a degree of comfort in 11-runner handicap at Doncaster last time. This is significantly tougher, though. 4-4 for new stable, all wins in handicaps; this is a much tougher task. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
This can go the way of NOSTRUM, who has not been in action since running an excellent race to finish third in the Dewhurst last October. The step up in trip should bring about further improvement and he is preferred to the likes of Britannia Stakes runner-up New Endeavour, and Mostabshir, who would hold strong claims if bouncing back to the form of his penultimate start at York. Unbeaten C&D winner Imperial Emperor is another to note on the rise in grade.
IMPERIAL EMPEROR has made a big impression on both starts to date and, with more to come, he's marginally preferred to Nostrum, who looked a class act last year but doesn't have the benefit of a recent run. Embesto has looked another exciting prospect to date, so he's another one to consider in what looks a strong renewal on paper.
Dewhurst third Nostrum sets the form standard but he is taken on with smart prospect IMPERIAL EMPEROR.

Boasts an excellent pedigree and is worth chancing to make a winning start. May need further in due course but is bred to be useful; interesting newcomer. |

5th (7) (250/1 -279%) Opal Storm |
250/1(-279%) | (7) Opal Storm 250/1, Once-raced maiden. 66/1, fifth of 6 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, soft) on debut 24 days ago, slowly away. Needs to improve plenty on Carlisle debut form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (40/1 +20%) Time To Spark |
40/1(+20%) | (4) Time To Spark 40/1, Orientor gelding. Dam 5f winner. Likely to need this initial experience. From a family that has served his stable well; follow the market signals. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (28/1 +15%) Lucky Protector |
28/1(+15%) | (3) Lucky Protector 28/1, Once-raced maiden. 125/1, sixth of 11 in minor event at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) on debut 30 days ago. Unlikely to feature. Showed some ability at Wetherby while shaping as if this drop to 6f will suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (33/1 -32%) Coco Starlight |
33/1(-32%) | (6) Coco Starlight 33/1, Gregorian filly. Dam maiden half-sister to very smart winner up to 1¼m Folkswood. Stable capable of readying a newcomer, so she's worth a market check. Debutante by Gregorian and the first foal of a well-related maiden. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (250/1 -150%) Irish Dancer |
250/1(-150%) | (2) Irish Dancer 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. Last of 12 in maiden (22/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 12 days ago. Makes no appeal. Finished last in both outings. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
COUPLET created a big impression when winning on debut at Haydock last September and the daughter of Zoustar could be hard to beat once again, despite the penalty and layoff. Star Map took a big step forward when second over C&D last time and she may have more to offer here. The most noteworthy newcomer is Primeval, who is a half-sister to high-class Group 2 winner and emerging sire Time Test.
PRIMEVAL is a half-sister to several winners, notably the classy Time Test, and this isn't the strongest novice to be starting out in, so she's worth taking a chance on if the market vibes are right. Couplet, who made a winning start 9 months ago, is an obvious danger and Star Map should be in the mix.
Haydock winner Couplet holds leading claims on her return to action but an interesting alternative is TURQUOISE DIAMOND.

1st (4) (2.25/1 -13%) Gortmillish |
2.25/1(-13%) | (4) Gortmillish 2.25/1, Lightly-raced winner under NH rules. Made light of 20-month absence when landing odds in 7-runner novice hurdle at Perth (16.2f, good) 19 days ago, keeping on well. Significantly up in trip. Open to progress. Returned from a long absence to win a Perth maiden hurdle; up in trip but should stay. |

2nd (3) (1.5/1 +50%) Charlie Luciano |
1.5/1(+50%) | (3) Charlie Luciano 1.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Course winner. Career best when winning 7-runner minor event hurdle (5/2) at Bellewstown (16.8f, good) 5 days ago, outbattling runner-up. Up in trip. On the upgrade recently. Three hurdle wins this year, including over 2m2f here and at Bellewstown last week. |

3rd (1) (4.5/1 +18%) Lisnamult Lad |
4.5/1(+18%) | (1) Lisnamult Lad 4.5/1, Thrice-raced winner under NH rules. Won 11-runner novice hurdle at Sligo (17.6f, good, 10/1) on hurdles bow 30 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Up in trip. May well do better. Got off the mark when winning a Sligo maiden on hurdling debut; has to improve up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (200/1 -33%) Crecerelle |
200/1(-33%) | (6) Crecerelle 200/1, Poor chaser. 40/1, tenth of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (17.3f, good) 25 days ago. Up in trip. Regressive maiden is utterly out of his depth in this company even getting weight. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (3.33/1 +17%) Lady Of The Vale |
3.33/1(+17%) | (5) Lady Of The Vale 3.33/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Tipperary in May. Second of 4 in novice hurdle (7/1) at Roscommon (20.7f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Thriving and should give another good account. Won a Tipperary maiden over 2m; decent runs over that trip and 2m4f since; chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A competitive rated novice hurdle. Gordon Elliott's GORTMILLISH had notable form behind very useful horses in a bumper and a maiden hurdle before hacking up by 12 lengths in a Perth maiden hurdle last month. He is taken to enjoy this step up in trip. Charlie Luciano isn't easily passed over. He has won his last three hurdle races, including on his penultimate start at this track. He was tough in winning at Bellewstown on Saturday and is definitely a player if fresh enough after that run. He is also tackling this trip for the first time. Elliott's Stuzzikini was beaten a fair way into second over an extended 3m at Kilbeggan and could appreciate this distance. Lady Of The Vale and Lisnamult Lad cannot be ruled out either.
GORTMILLISH should have more to offer now stepping up in trip and is narrowly preferred to Andrew Slattery's Lady of The Vale, who has done very well in recent months. The selection's stablemate Stuzzikini and last week's Bellewstown scorer Charlie Luciano are others unlikely to be far away.
With Jack Kennedy aboard, GORTMILLISH looks the Elliott number one and this point' winner can improve from his comeback win.

1st (6) (3.33/1 +33%) Dandy's Angel |
3.33/1(+33%) | (6) Dandy's Angel 3.33/1, Latest win at Beverley in June. 18/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good) 10 days ago. Consistency is proving hard to knock and each-way possibilities once more. 6yo who won at Beverley last month and was runner-up at Pontefract last time; big player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (6.5/1 +0%) Tremendous Times |
6.5/1(+0%) | (3) Tremendous Times 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who fared better than previously when second on return/handicap debut at Haydock (10f) in May. However, he does need to shrug off a lesser display back at that venue last month. Lightly raced 3yo but he was disappointing last time and has bit to prove again after that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (4.5/1 +31%) Distinction |
4.5/1(+31%) | (7) Distinction 4.5/1, One win from 40 Flat runs. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 12/1) 14 days ago. May just find a few too good again here. Consistent type but this is a step back up in grade and he has a record of 1-40. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (11/1 -10%) Forever Proud |
11/1(-10%) | (5) Forever Proud 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm, 7/1) 28 days ago, plugging on final 1f. This stiffer test promises to suit on that evidence and she may yet have more to offer. 0-5 and she's been laboured in both her handicaps; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (3/1 +10%) Strangerontheshore |
3/1(+10%) | (2) Strangerontheshore 3/1, Course winner. Good second of 9 in handicap (11/4) at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 13 days ago, edged out final 50 yds. Likely player again in present groove. Dual course winner who went close at Doncaster last time; respected for in-form yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (4.5/1 -29%) Jewel Maker |
4.5/1(-29%) | (1) Jewel Maker 4.5/1, Landed this race from a 5 lb higher mark 12 months ago. 11/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap back at this course (11.2f, soft) 15 days ago, meeting some trouble. Has good chance on pick of form and this is easier back in trip. Won this last year and has claims if he can bounce back on this drop back in grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (10/1 -122%) Camusdarach |
10/1(-122%) | (4) Camusdarach 10/1, Hooded for 1st time, bit below form third of 7 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 15/2) 16 days ago, making only laboured progress from 2f out. Others preferred. Six-race maiden who needs to raise his game back in a handicap at this new trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Strangerontheshore is just 1lb higher than when narrowly denied at Doncaster and she must enter calculations, along with Dandy's Angel, whose recent consistency ought to stand her in good stead. However, a chance is taken on the less-exposed TREMENDOUS TIMES. He finished second on his handicap debut at Haydock in May, but was far too keen when sent off favourite there the following month. A drop in trip could play to his strengths and further improvement isn't out of the question.
Successful in this race from a 5 lb higher mark 12 months ago, JEWEL MAKER can probably have his run in the Cumberland Plate here last month overlooked and, having previously highlighted he's coming to the boil, Tim Easterby's 8-y-o could well be ready to strike back at this more suitable trip. Strangerontheshore and Forever Proud, who looks worth a try at this longer trip, head up the dangers.
Preference is for DANDY'S ANGEL, who has been in good form on fast and soft ground in her last three runs, including a win at Beverley.

1st (2) (2.5/1 +29%) Bellezza |
2.5/1(+29%) | (2) Bellezza 2.5/1, Foaled April 6. Siyouni filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 6f-1m winner Tranchee and useful 2-y-o 6f winner Tough Talk. Of obvious interest on debut. Home-bred with a Moyglare entry; of obvious interest with the stable juveniles doing well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (33/1 -18%) Glor Tire |
33/1(-18%) | (6) Glor Tire 33/1, Twice-raced filly. 20/1, fourth of 6 in maiden at this course (7.1f, good) 35 days ago. Needs to take another marked step forward. Faded from the front over 7f last time but seems to be going the right way; not discounted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4/1 +20%) Brilliant |
4/1(+20%) | (3) Brilliant 4/1, Once-raced filly. 4/1, sixth of 13 in maiden at Cork (6f, good to soft) on debut 27 days ago, not knocked about. Up in trip. Likely to improve and isn't a forlorn hope for all that she has plenty to find. Could well be capable of above average improvement from Cork and play a hand here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (0.8/1 -10%) Navassa Island |
0.8/1(-10%) | (8) Navassa Island 0.8/1, Twice-raced filly. 6½ lengths tenth of 17 to Porta Fortuna in Albany Stakes at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm, 5/1) 20 days ago. Shaped with plenty of encouragement on debut prior to that and sets a clear standard. Naas run sets a clear standard and should be hard to beat; step up in trip should suit. |

5th (11) (14/1 +13%) With Style |
14/1(+13%) | (11) With Style 14/1, Foaled May 4. €150,000 yearling, No Nay Never filly. Sister to smart 7f-1m winner Horoscope and half-sister to 2 winners, including Belgian/French 7f-9.5f winner Ave Eria. Dam maiden. One to note. Moyglare entry cost E150,000 as a yearling and looks one for the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (80/1 +20%) Glimmerglass |
80/1(+20%) | (5) Glimmerglass 80/1, Foaled February 23. Magna Grecia filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful 9f-12.5f winner Tres Belle and 1m/9f winner Ghzayel. Dam maiden (stayed 9.5f). Nice mixture of speed and stamina in her pedigree and should be worth watching. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (14/1 -180%) Andalusian Star |
14/1(-180%) | (1) Andalusian Star 14/1, Foaled April 13. 80,000 gns yearling, Invincible Spirit filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Lord Uhtred. Interesting newcomer for top yard. Quite a speedily bred newcomer; no Group entries and might be best watched this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (150/1 -20%) Maple Star |
150/1(-20%) | (7) Maple Star 150/1, Once-raced filly. 100/1, ninth of 13 in maiden at Cork (6f, good to soft) on debut 27 days ago. Up in trip. Firmly up against it. Showed ability at Cork last month; unlikely player but likely to be of future interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (80/1 -100%) Soiree Dansante |
80/1(-100%) | (9) Soiree Dansante 80/1, Foaled April 8. €21,000 foal, €26,000 yearling, Showcasing filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Perfect Number. Dam, 11f-13f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Golden Town. Good middle distance pedigree; best watched here but one that is a likely future improver. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (200/1 -60%) Time'll Tell |
200/1(-60%) | (10) Time'll Tell 200/1, Twice-raced filly. 50/1, last of 17 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 48 days ago, hampered. Up in trip. Hard to make any sort of case for. Has beaten one rival in two starts and looks the first one to put a line through here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NAVASSA ISLAND will appreciate this much easier assignment having run in the Albany Stakes last month. The Michael O'Callaghan-trained filly was sent off at just 5/1 for that Group 3 contest, on the back of a hugely promising debut at Naas. In all probability, the daughter of Territories didn't show her true ability at the Royal meeting, especially given that her narrow Naas conqueror won that particular contest. The O'Callaghan representative can win here before stepping back up in class. Glamora caught the eye staying on late on debut over course and distance in May but failed to build on that run last time. A tendency to break slowly hasn't helped the daughter of Zoffany. With Style, a full-sister to a Listed winner, is the most interesting of the newcomers.
NAVASSA ISLAND made a highly promising debut when second to Porta Fortuna at Naas and, while she failed to back that up behind her old rival in the Albany at Royal Ascot, she's likely to open her account back in calmer waters. Bellezza and With Style are both appealing newcomers.
Despite her Albany failure last time, the form of her unlucky Group 3 defeat at Naas makes NAVASSA ISLAND hard to overlook in a maiden

1st (2) (8.5/1 +6%) Darkness |
8.5/1(+6%) | (2) Darkness 8.5/1, Remains winless for this yard but went close to bucking that trend in handicaps at Epsom/Goodwood in June. May of found busy spell catching up with him at York (7f) since but good chance he can bounce back with the visor replacing blinkers. Even if bouncing back from his last run, others may prove better handicapped. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (14/1 -17%) Sirona |
14/1(-17%) | (4) Sirona 14/1, Listed winner in Germany at 2 who has yet to match that level in 2 starts so far this term, again not seeing her race out when tenth in 11-runner Goodwood handicap (9.9f) in May. Goes handicapping now on the back of 48 days off but she does need to raise her game again. Down in class and there's a rethink on the trip but she does not look on a great mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/1 -29%) Titian |
9/1(-29%) | (3) Titian 9/1, Opened account for present yard (on back of a wind op) at York (1¼m) in October and, fit from AW, bettered that form when second in Spring Mile in April. Creditable sixth in big-field 9f handicap here since and he's entitled to be thereabouts again. Big placed efforts in two of his four starts this year; needs to be at his peak. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (3.33/1 +17%) Glenfinnan |
3.33/1(+17%) | (8) Glenfinnan 3.33/1, Harry Angel colt who has improved with each start to date, appreciating the step up to 1m when making all at Yarmouth back in September. Absent since but he remains open to further improvement now handicapping and is of firm interest. Hood on 1st time. Absent 301 days and hooded but he should bring potential to this handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (6.5/1 +28%) United Front |
6.5/1(+28%) | (6) United Front 6.5/1, Capitalised on much lower turf mark at Beverley (7.4f) 2 starts back and backed that up when finishing good fifth in last month's Carlisle Bell. Return to this quicker surface fine and no reason why he won't give another good account. Finally came good on turf last month and not discredited at Carlisle on latest outing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (3/1 +25%) Bodorgan |
3/1(+25%) | (10) Bodorgan 3/1, El Kabeir colt who landed a course novice (7f) on final start in October and returned with an encouraging fifth on handicap debut at Haydock (1m) in May. Never figured at Sandown (1m) since but it remains early days with him and no surprise to see a better showing. Creditable fifth of 11 on h'cap/seasonal debut at Haydock; underperformed 3 weeks later. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (9/1 -13%) Greatgadian |
9/1(-13%) | (1) Greatgadian 9/1, Useful handicapper who finished good sixth in the Lincoln back in April. Respectable third on penultimate start at Nottingham (8.3f) and whilst he wasn't disgraced when midfield in last month's Royal Hunt Cup he rates a more interesting proposition on AW than turf. Cheekpieces back on. No win since AW last May and his strike-rate on turf is 1-15; down weights and in class. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (4.5/1 +55%) Bling On The Music |
4.5/1(+55%) | (9) Bling On The Music 4.5/1, Off the mark (following wind op) in a Leicester novice (7f) in October. Low-key return at Musselburgh in April but back to form in 2 subsequent runs, close-up fifth of 7 in Goodwood handicap (1m) 4 weeks ago. Mark looks about right, however. Ran respectably at 1m last two outings, making most on latest, but needs better than that. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
TITIAN went well for a long way here on the Rowley Mile in May before weakening late on and the Spring Mile second should be much better suited by dropping back to a mile. The form of his stable is another plus, with the relatively consistent Darkness, as well as the capable Greatgadian looking best placed to chase him home. Others to note include Bodorgan, Good Karma and Soar Above.
GLENFINNAN displayed race-by-race progress in 3 starts as a juvenile, off the mark over this trip at Yarmouth on his final start in September. With his form containing plenty of substance, he could well be worth chancing to make light of an absence, with the prospect of more to come now handicapping. Fellow 3-y-o's Bodorgan and Good Karma head up the dangers, with Titian one of the older brigade to note, also.
Improvement from the 3yos is possible, with Glenfinnan one such candidate. 6yo UNITED FRONT has been competitive recently on turf.

1st (2) (4.5/1 +10%) Riot |
4.5/1(+10%) | (2) Riot 4.5/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in May. 5/1, run best excused when 8 lengths fifth of 6 to Mobashr in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 12 days ago, badly hampered under 3f out. Can get back on track. Had an excuse here 12 days ago; respectable form otherwise this season. |

2nd (5) (3.33/1 -11%) Mobashr |
3.33/1(-11%) | (5) Mobashr 3.33/1, Capitalised on his reduced mark when winning 6-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 11/1) 12 days ago. Remains well treated on old form so he's not taken lightly. C&D winner 12 days ago; that race rather fell apart but he's hard to dismiss. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (7/1 +0%) Quest For Fun |
7/1(+0%) | (4) Quest For Fun 7/1, In first-time tongue strap, ran better than on seasonal/stable debut when fifth of 16 in handicap at York (7f, good to firm, 25/1) 27 days ago. Interesting contender having dropped below his last winning mark. Ran respectably at York on second start for new yard; has slipped to handy mark. |

4th (11) (22/1 +21%) Dagmar Run |
22/1(+21%) | (11) Dagmar Run 22/1, Form has gone the wrong way this year, faring no better after 4 months off (had been gelded) when last of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good, 33/1) 19 days ago. Best watched. Has regressed since his maiden win; something to prove. |

5th (7) (4.5/1 +18%) Cliffcake |
4.5/1(+18%) | (7) Cliffcake 4.5/1, Successful at Beverley in May and again ran well when second of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, soft, 6/1) 23 days ago. Major player in his current form. Back in better form the last twice; fourth off 5lb higher in this race last year. |

6th (3) (5/1 +29%) Alethiometer |
5/1(+29%) | (3) Alethiometer 5/1, C&D winner who scored at Ayr in June. Found things tougher upped in grade when fifth of 6 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 10/1) 19 days ago, but could fare better with good-value claimer now on board. Below par last time but usually consistent and could well bounce back. |

7th (9) (10/1 -43%) Surprise Picture |
10/1(-43%) | (9) Surprise Picture 10/1, Soon back to form when making all in 8-runner handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good, 11/2) 20 days ago. Can give another good account on first run for yard after leaving Keith Dalgleish. Couple of Class 6 wins this term; goes without usual headgear on stable debut. |

8th (8) (40/1 -100%) Grant Wood |

9th (6) (10/1 +17%) Eldrickjones |
10/1(+17%) | (6) Eldrickjones 10/1, Below form when ninth of 11 in handicap (14/1) at York (8.8f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Now drops back down in trip with blinkers reapplied, but more needed to take advantage of his falling mark. Not solid on 2023 form and can be opposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (40/1 -21%) Serenity Rose |
40/1(-21%) | (10) Serenity Rose 40/1, Off the mark at Wolverhampton in January. Run best excused when twelfth of 14 in handicap at Haydock (1m, good to firm, 8/1) 75 days ago, hampered over 2f out. Others still look stronger. Well beaten last time; record on turf still isn't fully convincing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MOBASHR returned to winning ways over C&D 12 days ago and a 4lb rise in the ratings for that success may not be enough to prevent the five-year-old from making it a double. Surprise Picture also scored on his most recent outing and Grant Tuer's new inmate could prove to be the main threat to the selection, although Alethiometer and Cliffcake should not be underestimated.
CLIFFCAKE has returned to form on his last 2 starts, getting back to winning ways at Beverley before running well when second at Thirsk last month, so he is taken to score again in his current mood. Mobashr took advantage of a career-low mark here on his latest outing and is feared most, with Quest For Fun completing the shortlist.
The suggestion is QUEST FOR FUN who has slipped to 3lb below his last winning mark. Cliffcake is second choice.

2nd (5) (2.75/1 +50%) Nuttorridge |

Expected to be bang there. Winner over hurdles and fences here; should have improved from comeback and a solid chance. |

3.5/1(-27%) | (2) Winnie Woodnutt 3.5/1, Won handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan in April. Second of 15 in handicap chase (13/8) at Limerick (19.7f, good to soft) on debut over fences 49 days ago. Big player. Won over hurdles and decent chase effort since; up 9lb but should be competitive. |

4th (10) (14/1 +44%) Mr Social |
14/1(+44%) | (10) Mr Social 14/1, 12/1, bit below form eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Little promise in maidens or two handicaps, so has to improve plenty from comeback. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (7/1 +36%) Roman Parish |
7/1(+36%) | (4) Roman Parish 7/1, Creditable fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good, 25/1) 24 days ago. Good efforts at Clonmel (2m3f) and Kilbeggan (3m); this trip should be ideal and a chance. |

6th (12) (125/1 -279%) Corrigaleen |
125/1(-279%) | (12) Corrigaleen 125/1, Remains a maiden after 16 NH runs. Pulled up in handicap hurdle at this course (21.4f, soft, 12/1), pulled up before last. Off 13 months. Maiden after 16 starts has been well beaten off this mark when last seen and best watched. |

7th (11) (11/1 -22%) Silverstrand |
11/1(-22%) | (11) Silverstrand 11/1, Eleventh of 16 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good) 24 days ago but had been a good third at Ballinrobe prior to that. Could bounce back. Two good runs earlier this season but tailed-off at Kilbeggan and questions to answer. |

8th (9) (80/1 -100%) Janverlil |
80/1(-100%) | (9) Janverlil 80/1, 33/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, twelfth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good) 24 days ago. Little promise in maidens or on recent handicap debut and difficult to make a case for. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (15) (100/1 -100%) Zagnzig |
100/1(-100%) | (15) Zagnzig 100/1, One win from 52 NH runs. Thirty five runs since last win in 2018. Pulled up in handicap chase at this course (19.2f, good to soft, 22/1) 69 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Veteran has been pulled-up over hurdles and fences lately and not easy to make a case for. |

7.5/1(-67%) | (3) Cool Croi 7.5/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Perth (23.9f, good, 10/3) 19 days ago, folding. Not taken lightly for top stable. Disappointing at Perth last time following a good run there; has a squeak if bouncing back. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NUTTORRIDGE made up plenty of ground in the latter stages over a similar trip at this track in June to finish fourth. He enjoys the undulations in Downpatrick, having won over hurdles and fences at this venue. His trainer Mark McNiff is beginning to hit form, with two winners in the last week. Winnie Woodnutt was a ready winner when last seen over hurdles at Kilbeggan in April. She has been performing very consistently for some time now. Ceanndana has been placed in three of his last six hurdle races, which gives him a shot. Cool Croi and Silverstrand represent powerful stables and will be eyeing a cheque.
NUTTORRIDGE made an encouraging return from 8 months off when fourth here last month and is given a chance to build on that promise. Winnie Woodnutt followed her win over hurdles this spring with a chase second from this mark at Limerick and is second choice ahead of Ceanndana and Gordon Elliott's Cool Croi.
With the forecast Good ground in his favour, CEANNDANA should be able to build upon his Sligo return and get off the mark.

5/1(-11%) | (3) Kings Time 5/1, Fourth of 10 in maiden at Fairyhouse (6f, good, 10/11) 42 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes handicap debut for in-form yard. Below his best when odds-on for a Fairyhouse maiden last month; gelded since; interesting. |

2nd (8) (11/1 +8%) Rumbled Again |
11/1(+8%) | (8) Rumbled Again 11/1, Winner at Gowran in May. Fifth of 7 in handicap (4/1) at Listowel (7f, good) 39 days ago. That effort suggests the assessor has him. Too keen at Listowel last time but respected if coming back to his previous form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (2.5/1 +38%) Encosta |
2.5/1(+38%) | (4) Encosta 2.5/1, Very good second of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, good, 10/1) 21 days ago. Enters calculations from 1 lb higher. Touched off on the line in a 1m handicap here last month; drop back to 7f could well suit. |

4th (1) (1.75/1 +36%) Tough Talk |
1.75/1(+36%) | (1) Tough Talk 1.75/1, Lightly-raced winner. 9/1, respectable eighth of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good) 47 days ago. Stamina for 7f isn't set in stone but he remains a major player from this reduced mark. Gelded since his last run and too early to write off but others preferred here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (50/1 -100%) Eyeeye |
50/1(-100%) | (6) Eyeeye 50/1, 40/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at the Curragh (9f, good) 13 days ago. Hood back on. Has work to do. Drops back to 7f here; stable does well at this venue and hard to discount totally. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (11/1 +56%) Charming Lady |
11/1(+56%) | (5) Charming Lady 11/1, Seventh of 11 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good to firm, 12/1) 15 days ago. Up in trip and her record has a patchy look to it. Steps up to 7f for the first time and could be capable of a bold showing if she gets home. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SATURN SEVEN may be able to follow up her Limerick win on handicap debut last month. The Ken Condon-trained filly travelled easily before quickening nicely over a furlong out. Although ultimately just lasting home by half a length, she idled in front and was value for more than the winning margin. A 5lb rise gives the daughter of Sioux Nation every chance of adding to that success. Encosta had a valid excuse for a disappointing reappearance at Naas but showed a great deal more when runner-up at this track last time. The Noel Meade-trained filly had some smart form as a juvenile last season and remains largely unexposed. Artemis Jones, who won her maiden nicely at Limerick in June, has to be considered despite a lack of handicap experience.
ARTEMIS JONES needs to improve to defy her current mark but that is very likely given her profile, so she's preferred to Tough Talk and Encosta.
The one to beat could be the progressive ARTEMIS JONES in her first handicap after a decisive maiden win at Limerick

2nd (5) (1.38/1 +31%) Alhambra Palace |
1.38/1(+31%) | (5) Alhambra Palace 1.38/1, Promising sort. 7/4, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good) 14 days ago, nearest finish. Up in trip. Has to be taken seriously. Close 4th on h'cap debut last month (1m2f); bred to stay this far and still has potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (1.62/1 +46%) Denis Anthony |
1.62/1(+46%) | (4) Denis Anthony 1.62/1, 5/6, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Ffos Las (12f, good to firm) 18 days ago, driven out. Respected. Found plenty when winning at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) latest; more to come over this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (7/1 -27%) Dovena |
7/1(-27%) | (6) Dovena 7/1, 4/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) 19 days ago, comfortably. Needs considering. Two wins in 0-55s at around this trip; 6lb rise could find her out in this better company. |

5th (7) (33/1 +0%) Irezumi |
33/1(+0%) | (7) Irezumi 33/1, 10/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good) 8 days ago. Ran okay over C&D last week without suggesting he was the answer today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (25/1 -178%) Fox Flame |
25/1(-178%) | (3) Fox Flame 25/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in April. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm, 28/1) 12 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Best efforts have come on AW; may come good on turf but others look safer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A tight little handicap with plenty of potential improvers in the line-up. Denis Anthony is the obvious starting point having been well backed and travelling much the best en route to victory at Ffos Las and, only up 4lb, he is a player once more. Dovena has more to come over staying trips and there is a strong suspicion these quirky tracks suit her. However, it may be best left to ALHAMBRA PALACE, who really should have won on his handicap debut at Leicester. He steps up in trip, with Adam Farragher taking off a handy 3lb.
ALHAMBRA PALACE went close on handicap bow at Leicester 2 weeks ago, shaping as if this longer trip will suit, so gets the vote off a similar mark. Last-time-out winners Denis Anthony and Dovena head the dangers.
Alhambra Palace can progress again over this trip but DENIS ANTHONY (nap) showed plenty of pluck at Ffos Las and he can follow up.

1st (7) (2/1 -6%) Panning For Gold |
2/1(-6%) | (7) Panning For Gold 2/1, Off the mark at Yarmouth last month and defied a penalty in convincing fashion at Brighton (8f, good to firm, 11/10) 5 days later. 7 lb higher now but remains with potential. Won 1m handicaps (good to firm) at Yarmouth and Brighton last month once switched to turf. |

2nd (6) (16/1 +0%) No Barrier |
16/1(+0%) | (6) No Barrier 16/1, Failed to stay longer trip when fourth of 7 in handicap (22/1) at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Hadn't been proving particularly progressive beforehand and will likely prove vulnerable to less-exposed rivals again with blinkers applied. Easily best show this season was penultimate start; tried cheekpieces latest, now blinkers. |

3rd (1) (3/1 +33%) Bird Of Play |
3/1(+33%) | (1) Bird Of Play 3/1, Winner at Haydock in May. 5/1, again ran creditably when second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 13 days ago, sticking to task. Leading player again under regular claimer. 7f win followed by two 1m seconds, last time beaten a neck over C&D; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (18/1 +10%) Just A Notion |
18/1(+10%) | (5) Just A Notion 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 13 in maiden (18/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Opening mark looks stiff on her handicap debut. Interesting if backed for this handicap debut and she is bred to get at least 1m. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (18/1 +36%) Ubettabequick |
18/1(+36%) | (11) Ubettabequick 18/1, Respectable second of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 17 days ago, staying on again final 1f. Looks bit exposed by now but could prove capable of making the frame. Placed over 7f in two of her three handicaps; 1m is worth a go. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (25/1 -14%) Duke Of Wybourne |
25/1(-14%) | (8) Duke Of Wybourne 25/1, Runner-up at Newcastle in April but has seemingly gone badly off the boil, struggling long way out at Beverley last time. Went close at Newcastle (1m, AW) in April but hasn't been at the same level back on turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (4/1 +20%) Peaceful Story |
4/1(+20%) | (2) Peaceful Story 4/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 11 in minor event at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 7/2) 17 days ago. Not discounted on handicap debut, though perhaps will prove better suited by further. Minor honours in 1m novice events last month and should have more to give. |

8th (10) (20/1 +29%) Lakota Lass |
20/1(+29%) | (10) Lakota Lass 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 10/1, tenth of 11 in minor event at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Work to do on handicap debut. Handicap debut and probably of interest only if there's been market support behind her. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (16/1 -33%) Carvetii |
16/1(-33%) | (4) Carvetii 16/1, Did well under circumstances when second of 6 in handicap at Leicester (7f, heavy) on his penultimate outing, faring best of those ridden prominently in strongly-run event. Below form at Newmarket last time, though, and others are preferred. Went close at Leicester (7f, soft); well beaten at Newmarket (7f, good) three weeks later. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (9/1 +36%) Leading Company |
9/1(+36%) | (9) Leading Company 9/1, Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap (25/1) at Leicester (10f, good) 14 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Back down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. 7.4f/1m hat-trick last summer; raced at 1m2f this season, showing enough to be of interest. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Panning For Gold is bound to be popular in search of a hat-trick, but the step up in grade and 7lb rise for his most recent win could leave him vulnerable. With that in mind, slight preference is for BIRD OF PLAY, who is only 1lb higher than when beaten a neck over C&D a couple of weeks ago. Peaceful Story appears to be on a workable mark for her handicap debut and is the pick of the remainder.
PANNING FOR GOLD didn't appear to particularly handle the track at Brighton last time but proved far too good for his rivals nonetheless and a 7 lb rise shouldn't be enough to stop him completing the hat-trick. Chorus Line was a tidy winner at Leicester and didn't really get much of a chance to build on that victory at Haydock, so also merits plenty of respect, with the consistent Bird of Play also considered.
The two conspicuously in-form runners are PANNING FOR GOLD (nap) & Bird Of Play, with Leading Company completing the shortlist.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
AIR DROP was no match for a wide-margin winner of a bumper at this track last month, but could get her turn now. Her trainer Gordon Elliott has a good record in this race. New Sheriff and Fathom Two finished second and third respectively in another bumper at this track. They were both beaten fair distances, but New Sheriff was 14 lengths in front of Fathom Two. John McConnell's Ballerina Boxer attracted plenty of support for her first bumper in Thurles, but finished 10th. She is likely to do much better here. McConnell and Alex Harvey teamed up with a winner in Bellewstown on Saturday.
AIR DROP matched the form of her hurdling debut effort when runner-up in a bumper here 25 days ago and with the likelihood of better to come, she can come out on top. New Sheriff rates the chief danger.
Both New Sheriff and AIR DROP have shown similar levels of form. Preference is for the latter, receiving the 7lb mares' allowance.

25/1(-25%) | (10) Port Hedland 25/1, Foaled March 23. Cable Bay colt. Half-brother to 13f winner Mt Augustus and 1m winner Canal Rocks. Dam, maiden (should have stayed 1½m), half-sister to smart 7f winner Jedburgh. Market check advised on debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (2.25/1 +72%) Al Shabab |

Half-brother to numerous winners, including smart French/US 6f-8.5f winner Thewayiam and useful 2-y-o 1m winner Lady Heidi. Dam unraced. Likely longer-term prospect. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Second on his Kempton debut, Haya Taal appeals as a likely improver and must go on the shortlist. Al Shabab ought to appreciate further in time but it would be dangerous to underestimate one from the Andrew Balding yard, while market support for Port Hedland would be noteworthy. However, a tentative vote goes to AL WAASL, who is a well-related son of Showcasing. Doddie's Impact hasn't been seen since winning the Brocklesby and was pulled out of a race at Lingfield on Wednesday.
This can go to HAYA TAAL, who went with plenty of promise on his Kempton debut last month and should have learnt plenty from that experience. Doddie's Impact and Dufresne are also potential improvers and rate the principal dangers.
Haya Taal has to be on the shortlist but Andrew Balding's 2yo runners here are always of interest and AL SHABAB gets the nod.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HELPMEOUT, a dual C&D winner last season, can register her first success of the current campaign. Willie McCreery's four-year-old only weakened close home in a similar race last time and should strip fitter with the benefit of that run. Mulgrave has yet to win on turf, but has five victories to his name on the Polytrack at Dundalk. The John McConnell-trained gelding is a hard puller who needs to get cover but Donagh O'Connor does very well on the son of Mehmas. The quicker they go here, the better his chance of recording a first turf win. Thefullbackline didn't enjoy the clearest of passages at the Curragh recently so is one to consider now that he is fitted with first-time cheekpieces.
EASTERN LEGEND has improved switched to handicaps this season and gets the vote taking on older horses for the first time. Helpmeout continues to shape well and is feared most ahead of Coins Cross.
A sporting selection goes to THEFULLBACKLINE who ran much better than his finishing position last time and has the aid of cheekpieces

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Quick Away was sent off favourite for her debut at Chester, but she missed the break and ran green throughout so better can be expected. Tokyo Dreamer sets the standard and is sure to go well but may be vulnerable to an improver. One who fits the bill is ALNOORY, who shaped with real promise on her introduction at Lingfield, only getting run out of things close home. The daughter of Oasis Dream can take a step forward and get off the mark at the second attempt.
ALNOORY only just failed on debut at Lingfield 24 days ago and is taken to go one place better with improvement forthcoming. Tokyo Dreamer is getting better with each run and is feared most.
The rematch between ALNOORY and Tokyo Dreamer is a tricky one to call. Preference for Alnoory is fairly tentative.

This is way easier and she has strong claims. C&D winner before struggling in the Albany; penalised but this might not be a strong race. |

12/1(-100%) | (4) Perfect Spring 12/1, Oasis Dream filly who shaped with plenty of encouragement when mid-field at Goodwood (6f) on debut but was unable to justify favouritism at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) since, possibly finding the race coming too soon. Worth another chance. Faded over 7f at Lingfield; remains to be seen if she's quick enough for this trip. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MAPMAKER failed to make an impact when finishing down the field in the Albany last month, but Darryll Holland's filly could take all the beating returned to calmer waters. Perfect Spring paid the price after being taken on for the lead throughout at Lingfield last time but she remains of interest. Archie Watson often does well in these types of contests and Indication Dream is worth noting with that in mind.
The market will no doubt provide clues with regard to the newcomers, but MAPMAKER won over C&D second time up and having been flying too high at Royal Ascot since, Darryll Holland's charge is fancied to get back to winning ways. Second choice is Xaarine, who offered something to work on when mid-field at Lingfield last month, while Perfect Spring and Indication Dream can fight out minor honours.
Downgraded from the Albany, C&D winner MAPMAKER carries a penalty in what's probably not that strong a race.

Okay C&D run in August but little in three starts since albeit better for Gowran comeback. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ROCKBURY LAD can get off the mark at the 14th time of asking. Michael O'Callaghan's four-year-old had no luck with the draw on a number of occasions last season and suffered a similar fate on his most recent run at this track. Forced to race wide off the home turn, the Showcasing gelding ran on strongly to be nearest at the finish. Stepping back up to a mile is a definite plus, as is the low draw in stall seven. Rampage, who has gone close on his last two visits here, is a consistent sort but won't find it easy from his wide berth. If James Ryan is able to negotiate a clear passage in the straight, the McCourt runner should be involved. The lightly-raced Boomerang Bill, who shaped well on his recent stable debut, has more scope for improvement than most.
This is wide open and while disappointing on her only start on turf, FEATURE THIS gets the verdict to pick up from where she left off at Dundalk 3 months ago and notch career victory number 3 from the same mark. Rampage is threatening to come good soon, so he could be the one to give the selection most to think about, while Shona Mea, last year's winner Smaoineamh Sile and Bright Moment are just a handful of others to consider.

1st (5) (2/1 +33%) Magical Merlin |
2/1(+33%) | (5) Magical Merlin 2/1, Latest win at Lingfield in June. Fourth of 6 in handicap (7/2) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Remains one to be interested in. Won modest event at Lingfield last month but held in Class 4 latest; now tried in blinkers. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (3/1 +33%) Grenham Bay |
3/1(+33%) | (6) Grenham Bay 3/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Salisbury in May. 11/4, eighth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 29 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Not completely dismissed. Two wins in the spring; no impact the last twice; return to more positive tactics may help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (2.5/1 +29%) Toussarok |
2.5/1(+29%) | (3) Toussarok 2.5/1, C&D winner. 2¾ lengths eighth of 10 to Faro De San Juan in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good, 12/1) 26 days ago. Should strip fitter for that and handicapper has dropped him 2 lb, so he looks a player. Seems well suited by undulating tracks and won this race off 5lb higher last year; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (50/1 -52%) Lethal Angel |
50/1(-52%) | (8) Lethal Angel 50/1, Last of 5 in handicap (10/1) at Brighton (5.3f, soft) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Hard to make a strong case for. Three Brighton wins last season but yet to shine in 2023; vulnerable at this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (7) (8.5/1 +29%) Pablo Del Pueblo |
8.5/1(+29%) | (7) Pablo Del Pueblo 8.5/1, Latest win at Lingfield in March. 10/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 7 days ago, doing too much too soon. Others have achieved more. Two 5f AW wins this year but patchy record since the 2nd of them; unplaced in 3 runs here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|DQ| (4) (7.5/1 +38%) Count Otto |
7.5/1(+38%) | (4) Count Otto 7.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in March. Last of 8 in handicap (18/1) at Newmarket (6f, good) 19 days ago. Something to prove at present. 8lb lower than for March's AW win; struggled since; effective over C&D but risks involved. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
There should be plenty of speed on here and it may set up well for the closers. Magical Merlin needs to leave a slightly below-par effort at Windsor behind, but has blinkers on for the first time and looks a player. Grenham Bay was disappointing at Kempton, but this race may well work out better for him and he's much respected. Slight preference is for JUSTCALLMEPETE, who never seems to run a bad race and should love the pace he's going to get to aim at. He can claim his first win on turf.
TOUSSAROK left the impression he'd strip fitter for the run back from a short break at Chester last time and he's shown his effectiveness at this track in the past, so he's worth a chance to defy a handy mark at the likely expense of the in-form Justcallmepete. Magical Merlin is another to consider.
Justcallmepete is a big player with the blinkers back on but TOUSSAROK is well treated now and can win this race for a second time.

1st (12) (8/1 +0%) Gallant Lion |
8/1(+0%) | (12) Gallant Lion 8/1, All the sharper for her C&D reappearance when showing a good attitude to lead on the line in a 6-runner Brighton handicap 16 days ago. Should remain competitive up 3 lb . Only 3lb higher than for Brighton win but back in stronger company. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (2.5/1 +9%) Khinjani |
2.5/1(+9%) | (10) Khinjani 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (5/2) at Ripon (1¼m, good) 22 days ago, not looking at ease on that undulating track. Worth another chance to show she's capable of better in handicaps. Made a respectable start in handicaps and never looked that happy at Ripon latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (8/1 +6%) So Farhh So Good |
8/1(+6%) | (6) So Farhh So Good 8/1, Fair form in his 3 qualifying runs over 1m/1¼m. In good hands and no surprise were he to take a step forward now moving into handicaps. All runs relatively positive and looks the type to make her mark in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (8.5/1 -31%) Rayat |
8.5/1(-31%) | (2) Rayat 8.5/1, Overcame inexperience when winning novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut 53 days ago. Took strong hold when well beaten in a similar event at Newcastle (1¼m) 8 weeks later. Sports a hood now handicapping. Still very early days. Dead-heated on AW debut but was tailed off next time; hood on for handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (5.5/1 +0%) Yellow Lion |
5.5/1(+0%) | (11) Yellow Lion 5.5/1, Placed in handicaps at Goodwood (7f) and Bath (1¼m) last month. Creditable sixth of 12 in 1m course handicap a week ago. Has placed form but he's now 0-8 and is struggling to get the job done. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (7/1 +42%) Lawn Ranger |
7/1(+42%) | (8) Lawn Ranger 7/1, Latest win at Windsor (1¼m) in April. 5/1, respectable third of 8 in handicap there (11.5f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Can play a part but possibly vulnerable for win purposes. Conditions will suit and would have each-way claims if putting in a good shift. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (4.5/1 -29%) Lost In Time |
4.5/1(-29%) | (7) Lost In Time 4.5/1, Bounced back to form in recent days, second on AW at Lingfield before comfortably going one better at Yarmouth (1¼m, good) a week ago. Player under a 5 lb penalty if in similar form. Not the first time he's threatened when coming clear in a 1m2f Yarmouth handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (100/1 -150%) Finn Russell |
100/1(-150%) | (9) Finn Russell 100/1, Hooded first time, first run since leaving Iain Jardine when last of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Chester (7.6f, good) on reappearance 13 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Hood off this time. Could only consider if backed. Nowhere in a 7.5f handicap on stable debut; stamina to prove over this far. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (14/1 -40%) Forward Flight |
14/1(-40%) | (3) Forward Flight 14/1, Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, soft, 9/2) 23 days ago. Placed twice prior to that and he's not without hope. Knocking on the door for his new yard before failing to fire at Beverley. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (100/1 -203%) Mambo Beat |
100/1(-203%) | (4) Mambo Beat 100/1, Fair form at 2 but down the field in 2 handicaps last summer. It's of some interest that connections persevere but could only really consider if the market vibes are notably strong on this return from 11 months off/wind op. Returns from an absence following wind surgery and there's time to turn things around. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (20/1 +9%) Whitcombe Rockstar |
20/1(+9%) | (5) Whitcombe Rockstar 20/1, Fair form. Made a reasonable start to his handicap career when 5 lengths fifth of 10 over 1m at Kempton 15 days ago. Did his best work at the finish so this return to further should suit. Well held in novices at this trip but 1m looked too sharp when midfield on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (50/1 -25%) Sky Power |
50/1(-25%) | (1) Sky Power 50/1, Pretty useful at his best for Ralph Beckett but drew a blank in 2022 and now starts out for a new stable after 9 months off. Probably best watched. Out of sorts on turf last autumn and was sold out of Ralph Beckett's for 14,000gns. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
LOST IN TIME has found marked improvement since being sent over this distance earlier in the month. Runner-up at Lingfield two starts ago before bolting up at Yarmouth five days later, Dean Ivory's gelding appeals as the one to beat under a penalty. Recent Brighton-scorer Gallant Lion merits respect at the foot of the weights, while it would be no surprise were So Farhh So Good to go well on her handicap bow.
KHINJANI ran okay last time considering she didn't really cope with the undulations of Ripon and is worth another chance to show she can win off a mark in the low 70s. Lost In Time will be a threat if showing up in the same form as when successful at Yarmouth last week. So Farhh So Good and Rayat are unexposed sorts who could have more to come in handicaps.
This looks very open. SO FARHH SO GOOD appeals as the type to pay her way now handicapping and she edges preference.

1st (9) (7/1 +7%) Redstone Well |
7/1(+7%) | (9) Redstone Well 7/1, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (5/2) at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good) 17 days ago, always holding on. Merits respect. More needed but showed a good attitude at Ballinrobe last time and could go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (13) (16/1 +36%) Carracci |
16/1(+36%) | (13) Carracci 16/1, Lightly-raced winner. Twentieth of 29 in handicap at Royal Ascot (8f, good to firm, 28/1) 21 days ago, slowly away. Too soon to write off. Well held in competitive handicaps last twice and others look more likely this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (5.5/1 +0%) Coeur D'or |
5.5/1(+0%) | (5) Coeur D'or 5.5/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap (4/1) at this C&D (good) 35 days ago, readily. Up 10 lb for that but can't be ruled out. Up 10lb for last time which is not excessive; has a big chance if able to reproduce that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (20/1 +29%) Cordouan |
20/1(+29%) | (11) Cordouan 20/1, 28/1, bit below form eighth of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 11 days ago, running on. Has good chance on pick of form. Not at his best in two runs this season and others preferred this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (16) (2.5/1 +64%) Lan Cinnte |
2.5/1(+64%) | (16) Lan Cinnte 2.5/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 7/1, very good second of 11 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Up in trip. Going the right way and might well get her head back in front. Good Curragh run; should be okay with the step up in trip; looks to be going the right way. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (15) (66/1 -136%) Sirjack Thomas |
66/1(-136%) | (15) Sirjack Thomas 66/1, Latest win at the Curragh in May. Fifteenth of 18 in handicap (33/1) at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Seems to have lost his form. Nothing if not inconsistent; well capable of going close off this mark if the in the mood. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (28/1 +58%) Saltonstall |
28/1(+58%) | (1) Saltonstall 28/1, Course winner. 40/1, twelfth of 18 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 11 days ago, merely closing up late. Others make more appeal. A few more progressive types in opposition here and probably best watched this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (22/1 +21%) Star Harbour |
22/1(+21%) | (6) Star Harbour 22/1, Below form sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f, good to soft, 5/2) 72 days ago. Useful on the Flat, respectable on last Flat outing. Not taken lightly. Tried over hurdles last season with limited effect; off since May and others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (17) (12/1 +52%) Lord Vader |
12/1(+52%) | (17) Lord Vader 12/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable 5 lengths fourth of 15 to Alanya in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good, 9/1) 12 days ago, left with too much to do. Can get involved if everything drops right. May well improve a bit more but has a tough task here from 5lb out of the handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (11/1 -22%) Good Too |
11/1(-22%) | (3) Good Too 11/1, First run since leaving Jean-Claude Rouget when fourth of 6 in minor event (9/2) at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft) on IRE debut 25 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Makes handicap debut. One to note in the betting. Needed the run on his stable debut at Gowran; totally unexposed and could go close here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (7/1 +22%) Londoner |
7/1(+22%) | (8) Londoner 7/1, Bit below form ninth of 15 in handicap at Royal Ascot (10f, good to firm, 18/1) 19 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Remains one to be interested in. Well beaten in an Ascot handicap; hard to assess but not impossible to see him involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (2) (18/1 -64%) Monaasib |
18/1(-64%) | (2) Monaasib 18/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Second of 4 in minor event at Fairyhouse (7f, good, 6/4) 27 days ago. Back up in trip. Not discounted. Consistent performer; best form is over shorter though and might find a couple too good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (4) (12/1 +33%) Jungle Cove |
12/1(+33%) | (4) Jungle Cove 12/1, Course winner. 12/1, creditable 4¾ lengths third of 15 to Alanya in handicap at the Curragh (10f, good) 12 days ago. Likely to continue in form. Four-time winner, including off a 7lb lower mark in this race last year; each-way chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (12) (8/1 +6%) Zabeir |
8/1(+6%) | (12) Zabeir 8/1, Good third of 18 in handicap (16/1) at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 11 days ago, faring best of those held up. Can't be discounted. Will need plenty of luck in running from an inside draw; big chance if things fall his way. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LORD VADER is an intriguing contender from the foot of the weights here. The Emmet Mullins-trained four-year-old stayed on nicely from the rear when fourth over a mile at Limerick on his second start for current connections. He then caught the eye when nearest at the finish under a relatively inexperienced amateur rider at the Curragh on Derby weekend. Leigh Roche takes over in the saddle now, with the horse running over what may well be his optimum trip. Coeur d'Or was a very impressive winner on his last start at this venue, suggesting that he may well be up to Pattern class. A subsequent 10lb hike isn't as much of a concern as his wide draw. Londoner disappointed at Royal Ascot but had some very smart form prior to that. Killian Hennessy is proving great value for his 5lb claim.
LAN CINNTE is progressive and shaped better than the result when second at the Curragh last time, so she's worth chancing with the longer trip expected to suit. Last-time-out winners Redstone Well and Alanya look major dangers.
The selection is ALANYA(nap), up 8lb for bolting up in the Ladies Derby on her Irish debut and chances are that there is more to come

1st (2) (2.75/1 +8%) Redredrobin |
2.75/1(+8%) | (2) Redredrobin 2.75/1, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Salisbury in June. Fifth of 6 in handicap (11/4) at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Merits consideration. Having a good year over sprint trips but stays this far and could take some pegging back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (6/1 -118%) Harb |
6/1(-118%) | (3) Harb 6/1, 11/4, fourth of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) 12 days ago. On a handy mark but has stamina to prove up in trip. On a good mark and running creditably this year; stamina for 7f a major question mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/1 -50%) Dulcet Spirit |
9/1(-50%) | (5) Dulcet Spirit 9/1, Winner at Lingfield in January. 33/1, creditable third of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Should give another good account. 7f AW winner in January; ran okay at Brighton latest (led) but more needed to win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (3.5/1 +65%) Otago |
3.5/1(+65%) | (4) Otago 3.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Brighton in April. Last of 8 in handicap (5/1) at Brighton (8f, good to firm) 51 days ago, slowly away. Needs to bounce back. Two C&D wins, one in this race in 2021; started 2023 well but quiet the last twice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (11/1 +73%) Bonus |
11/1(+73%) | (9) Bonus 11/1, 20/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft) 73 days ago. Hood back on. Others have achieved more. On a winning mark but he was tailed off on his seasonal return; enough to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (33/1 +0%) Stepmother |
33/1(+0%) | (8) Stepmother 33/1, 50/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good) 13 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Yet to fire for current stable and opposable despite her reduced mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (18/1 +45%) Nubough |
18/1(+45%) | (7) Nubough 18/1, Two wins from 45 Flat runs. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm, 22/1) 44 days ago. On losing run and 0-19 on turf; well beaten at Lingfield last time; others much safer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (2.75/1 -10%) Marsh Benham |
2.75/1(-10%) | (1) Marsh Benham 2.75/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton in June. Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Sandown (8f, good, 13/2) 6 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again. 2 wins this summer; ran OK in last week's hat-trick bid; considered in race lacking depth. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This represents a drop in class for REDREDROBIN, who looked outpaced over 5f at Salisbury last month. She made every post a winning one over 6f there on her penultimate outing and a reproduction of that effort can see her firmly in the picture. Marsh Benham was denied a hat-trick when stepped up to a mile at Sandown and is feared most down in trip, while Dulcet Spirit is another to bear in mind.
REDREDROBIN has already won three times in 2023 and, having found things happening too quickly over the minimum distance at Salisbury last time, she's fancied to get her head back in front returned to a more suitable trip. Marsh Benham arrives in form and looks a danger, while Dulcet Spirit can't be dismissed.
5f looked too sharp for REDREDROBIN last time but she can resume her progress back up in trip. Marsh Benham is feared most.

1st (5) (0.62/1 +23%) Tony Montana |
0.62/1(+23%) | (5) Tony Montana 0.62/1, 425,000 gns Kingman colt who made a promising start to his career when second in a strong 1m Salisbury novice last September. Yet to build on that but faced a stiff task in Hampton Court Stakes at Ascot last time and looks capable of getting off the mark. Plenty of initial promise before struggling to cope in a Group 3 at Royal Ascot. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (4/1 +33%) Cracksking |
4/1(+33%) | (2) Cracksking 4/1, Posted promising third of 9 in maiden at Kempton (8f) on debut in April and, while he could only run to a similar level when fourth in a similar event at Sandown last month, he remains with potential. Debut form has worked out well; good to firm perhaps too fast for him at Sandown. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (12/1 +0%) Esmeray |
12/1(+0%) | (7) Esmeray 12/1, €50,000 foal, 50,000 gns yearling, Sea The Moon filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful winner up to 1¼m Rythmique out of winning half-sister to Irish Oaks winner Vintage Tipple. Interesting newcomer. 50,000gns yearling; only filly in the field but market support would heighten interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (5.5/1 -57%) Fleet Admiral |
5.5/1(-57%) | (3) Fleet Admiral 5.5/1, Shaped with encouragement when hitting the frame on first two starts and bred to be well suited by this longer trip, so more to come. Only 5l away in a decent Leicester 1m maiden and should be fine over this far. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (25/1 +24%) Sailing On |
25/1(+24%) | (4) Sailing On 25/1, Brother to smart winner up to 1½m Talent and useful 2-y-o 1m winner Forte but shaped as if amiss (irregular heartbeat) when pulled up at this course 82 days ago. Gelded since. Suffering from an irregular heartbeat when pulled up over 1m3f (soft) here in April. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (40/1 -233%) Clever Relation |
40/1(-233%) | (1) Clever Relation 40/1, Made a winning start at Windsor in April and, while he disappointed next time, he's not one to write off after a break. Windsor winner but was unsteerable when tailed off at Sandown; bit to prove now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (33/1 +0%) Truth Will Out |
33/1(+0%) | (6) Truth Will Out 33/1, Outstrip gelding. Dam 2m-17f winner. Likely to need time and distance, so unlikely to feature on debut. Sixth foal; dam 2m-2m1f winner; gelded ahead of this belated debut and rather watch. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
TONY MONTANA was pitched into the Hampton Court at Royal Ascot following a pair of solid efforts, including when third here in May, and this appears to be a solid opportunity for the son of Kingman to shed the maiden tag. Fleet Admiral stepped forward when fourth at Leicester last month, but going up in trip may not be the right move at this stage of his career, so the main threat may come from Cracksking, who appeals as the type to progress with more experience under his belt.
TONY MONTANA has the best form and didn't have much chance at Royal Ascot last time, so he's worth a chance to open his account at the fourth attempt. Fleet Admiral looks the main danger up in trip and Cracksking is no forlorn hope.
Contesting the Group 3 Hampton Court on his third run was a big ask for TONY MONTANA and he should take some beating this time.

1st (10) (3.33/1 +33%) Shamida |
3.33/1(+33%) | (10) Shamida 3.33/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Evens, won 12-runner maiden at this course (12f, good) 55 days ago by ½ length from Scarlett O'hara, driven out. Half a length too good for Scarlett O'Hara in 1m4f maiden here; should improve further. |

2nd (1) (5.5/1 -100%) Divine Jewel |
5.5/1(-100%) | (1) Divine Jewel 5.5/1, Useful filly. Very good 5½ lengths third of 6 to Quickthorn in listed race (12/1) at York (13.8f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Form pick. Third on seasonal debut behind two smart stayers on fast ground at York last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (7.5/1 +46%) Scarlett O'Hara |
7.5/1(+46%) | (9) Scarlett O'Hara 7.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 13-runner maiden at the Curragh (12f, good, 13/8) 36 days ago, always holding on. Much more required. 1m4f winner seems sure to stay this trip and well-bred sort open to plenty of progression. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (8.5/1 +23%) Amusement |
8.5/1(+23%) | (4) Amusement 8.5/1, Useful filly. Course winner. 12/1, very good 1½ lengths fourth of 11 to Layfayette in listed race at Limerick (12.5f, good) 20 days ago. Yard in good form. Should continue to give a good account. 1m4f course handicap win came off just 79 but two creditable efforts in this grade since. |

5th (2) (25/1 -14%) Irish Lullaby |
25/1(-14%) | (2) Irish Lullaby 25/1, Useful filly. 20/1, fifteenth of 19 in handicap at Royal Ascot (20f, good) 23 days ago. Back down in trip. Should go well again. Second in 1m4f Listed contest at Cork; stays this trip but well beaten last twice. |

6th (3) (12/1 -71%) Powerful Aggie |
12/1(-71%) | (3) Powerful Aggie 12/1, Useful mare. 1 win from 2 runs this year. 4/1, career best when winning 6-runner listed race at Down Royal (16.2f, good) 20 days ago by 1½ lengths from Taipan, driven out. Can make presence felt. Stays 2m well and won Down Royal Listed heat over that trip last month; more to do here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (2.75/1 +39%) Library |
2.75/1(+39%) | (7) Library 2.75/1, Useful filly. Career best when winning 9-runner listed race (5/1) at Naas (10f, good to firm) 15 days ago by head from Empress of Beauty. Respected. 1m2f Listed winner at Naas, rallying well to win narrowly; pedigree suggests she'll stay. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (12/1 +0%) Understated |
12/1(+0%) | (11) Understated 12/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Windsor in April. 16¾ lengths twelfth of 17 to Warm Heart in Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm, 40/1) 21 days ago. Runner-up in Goodwood Listed contest over 1m2f; too free when well held in the Ribblesdale. |

9th (8) (20/1 -67%) Red Riding Hood |
20/1(-67%) | (8) Red Riding Hood 20/1, Useful filly. Hooded for 1st time, 18½ lengths fifteenth of 17 to Warm Heart in Ribblesdale Stakes at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm, 80/1) 21 days ago, slowly away. Third in 1m2f Naas Group 3 when fitted with blinkers; well beaten in Oaks and Ribblesdale. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (10/1 +38%) Lambada |
10/1(+38%) | (6) Lambada 10/1, Fairly useful filly. Creditable 2½ lengths fourth of 9 to Library in listed race at Naas (10f, good to firm, 15/2) 15 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Fourth over 1m2f at Naas in Listed race won by Library; nearly 3l to find with that rival. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (50/1 -52%) High Chieftess |
50/1(-52%) | (5) High Chieftess 50/1, Lightly-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at the Curragh in May. 9¾ lengths eighth of 11 to Layfayette in listed race (16/1) at Limerick (12.5f, good) 20 days ago. Weakened tamely when front-running tactics were employed in 1m4f Limerick Listed event. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LIBRARY, who seems to have improved since being fitted with blinkers, may be able to add to her recent Naas Listed win. The Aidan O'Brien-trained filly showed real heart and determination once challenged in the straight and wasn't for passing. On breeding, she should appreciate this step up in trip, while she looks just the type to prevail should the race turn into a battle. Stablemate Red Riding Hood will find this easier having raced in better company of late. She remains unexposed after just the six career starts so has to be a live contender. Understated struggled at Royal Ascot last month but is very lightly raced. The Ralph Beckett-trained daughter of Nathaniel still has time to deliver on the promise she showed at Goodwood.
DIVINE JEWEL ran a cracker when third behind a couple of smart sorts at York on her return and gets the vote back against her own sex. Powerful Aggie and Amusement head the dangers.
Game in victory over 1m2f at Naas, LIBRARY has to answer a stamina query but is taken to account for proven stayer Divine Jewel

3.33/1(+63%) | (8) Desfondado 3.33/1, Held up in a steadily-run race when seventh of 9 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 27 days ago, not ideally placed. Looks competitive on form taking on his elders. Maiden but has shown promise and this is weaker than last time; each-way claims. |

2nd (1) (2.75/1 +39%) Bobby Dassler |
2.75/1(+39%) | (1) Bobby Dassler 2.75/1, Just about better than ever when opening his account at Nottingham in May. Disappointing at Haydock since and headgear now on. Made all at Nottingham in May; less good latest but headgear now added and he's a player. |

3rd (9) (4/1 +0%) Buy The Dip |
4/1(+0%) | (9) Buy The Dip 4/1, Off the mark switched to the AW at Lingfield in June. Raced away from the action when fifth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 20 days ago and needs treating as though still in top form. Seems happiest on AW and he'll need a big personal best on turf to come out on top. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (7/1 -100%) Beau Vintage |
7/1(-100%) | (7) Beau Vintage 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, very good second of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 24 days ago. Makes turf debut. On the upgrade and may have a bigger performance in him. Close 2nd on recent h'cap debut; hung both ways there so this track a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (20/1 +9%) La Rav |
20/1(+9%) | (3) La Rav 20/1, Below form sixth of 10 in claimer at Lingfield (8f, AW, 11/1) 42 days ago. Back on turf and just 1 lb above last winning mark but tendency to blow the start is a worry. Capable on his day and market confidence would be encouraging. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (5.5/1 +15%) Frequent Flyer |
5.5/1(+15%) | (6) Frequent Flyer 5.5/1, Interesting runner on his 2-y-o form but has yet to fire this season, visored when fourth of 5 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Drops in class. Not matched his 2yo best in handicaps this year; down in weights but others safer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (14/1 +0%) Amaysmont |
14/1(+0%) | (2) Amaysmont 14/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 20/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Dropped a long way in the weights if he can bounce back. Yet to really catch light for current stable but down in the weights; market check advised. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (9/1 +25%) Star Of Sussex |
9/1(+25%) | (5) Star Of Sussex 9/1, Still looked green when fifth of 6 in handicap at Chepstow (10f, good to firm, 18/1) 41 days ago, very slowly away. Isn't yet exposed and is in good hands but more needed from this mark. Ran well on 2nd start; yet to shine this year, blowing start on h'cap debut latest; gelded. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Nonsuch Lad has been fairly consistent this term and finished a creditable third over 1m2f at this track last week. He has been left on the same mark but could want further so the vote is given to BEAU VINTAGE. Only narrowly denied over a similar trip at Wolverhampton, the fact that Adam Farragher negates all of the gelding's 2lb rise with his 3lb claim must make him of significant interest on his turf debut. Bobby Dassler seeks to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces and completes the shortlist.
Having got off the mark on the AW on his penultimate start, BUY THE DIP shaped well from a poor track position at Newmarket 3 weeks ago so he needs treating as though still at the top of his game. Fellow 3-y-os Beau Vintage and Desfondado head the opposition.
Desfondado and Star Of Sussex can still do better but BOBBY DASSLER could take some catching if anywhere near his best.

1st (8) (1.38/1 +54%) Kyle Of Lochalsh |
1.38/1(+54%) | (8) Kyle Of Lochalsh 1.38/1, Making his handicap debut after 5 months off, matched the pick of his 2-y-o form when fourth at Windsor (11.4f) in May, despite not being ideally placed in a steadily-run race. Could be ready to open his account with tongue strap on first time. Now tongue tied; surely has more to offer and pedigree boosts interest at today's trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (6/1 +40%) Dancing Cloud |
6/1(+40%) | (9) Dancing Cloud 6/1, Ran to a fair level in two starts for Joseph Patrick O'Brien last year. On his second run for current connections, left poorly placed when fourth of 7 at Newcastle (12.4f) on handicap debut a fortnight ago. Now upped further in trip. Fourth of seven on handicap debut latest (1m4f, AW); needs better but early days. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (18/1 -64%) Ancient Capital |
18/1(-64%) | (6) Ancient Capital 18/1, After 13 weeks off and upped in trip, made a winning stable debut at Ffos Las (12f) a year ago. Shaped as if still in good form when second at the same C&D the following month, but hasn't been seen on the track for 11 months since. Off since last August but has a big shout if he returns firing on all cylinders. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (5/1 +9%) Royal Athena |
5/1(+9%) | (11) Royal Athena 5/1, Has shown improved form on her last two starts, winning at Lingfield (12f, AW) in June before faring best of those held up when third at the same C&D 10 days later. Could still have more to offer as she goes further up in trip. Best efforts upped to 1m4f on Lingfield AW on last two outings; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (6/1 -9%) Stonking |
6/1(-9%) | (1) Stonking 6/1, Progressed gradually last year, getting off the mark at the third attempt at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in November. After 7 months off, ran well on his handicap debut when runner-up at the same course (14f) in June. Can do better again with his reappearance behind him. 2nd on handicap debut (1m6f); switches to turf and could easily have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (6.5/1 -18%) Greased Lightning |
6.5/1(-18%) | (10) Greased Lightning 6.5/1, Left his reappearance run well behind when second at Windsor (11.4f) in May. However, hasn't been able to build on that effort in two starts since, in first-time cheekpieces when third of 5 back at the same C&D 17 days ago. Mixed record since debut win but best run this term (three starts back) gives him a chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (18/1 -50%) Shibuya Song |
18/1(-50%) | (5) Shibuya Song 18/1, Winner at this course (12f) last year for Ed Walker, but below that level in two runs for her current yard this season. Retried in cheekpieces, went backwards from her reappearance when fourth of 5 at Ffos Las 18 days ago. Has work to do (headgear left off). Comfortable win here (1m4f, good) one year ago off 2lb lower; poor show 18 days ago. |

8th (7) (50/1 -100%) Estrela Star |
50/1(-100%) | (7) Estrela Star 50/1, Sole success on turf came at this course (10f) back in summer 2021. Scored twice at Chelmsford (both at 14f) last year, including in December, but below form also at Chelmsford when last seen in January. Lesser show in January last time; has plenty of form to make this look a competitive mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (22/1 -83%) Atalanta Breeze |
22/1(-83%) | (2) Atalanta Breeze 22/1, Successful at Brighton (11.9f) on her sole outing last year and has had only the three starts so far this season, producing her best effort of the year when third of 6 at Wolverhampton (14f) last time. Needs to find more again. Won her only race last term; back to that form on latest start, just behind Stonking. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (33/1 +0%) Systemic |
33/1(+0%) | (4) Systemic 33/1, Has had only one start on the Flat for his current trainer, finishing last at Goodwood (14f) in May 2022. Won a handicap hurdle at Plumpton 9 days later, but after almost a year off has been below form both outings this year. Others more persuasive back on the level. Last Flat run was in April 2022; not dismissed, as the handicapper has given him a chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
STONKING was a beaten favourite when making his handicap bow at Wolverhampton last month, finishing one place ahead of Atalanta Breeze, but Heather Main's gelding is likely to have benefited from that outing and the slight drop back in trip may also aid his cause. Kyle Of Lochalsh is open to improvement following his fourth at Windsor with a tongue-tie applied for the first time, while others to note are Royal Athena and Dancing Cloud.
KYLE OF LOCHALSH ran well on his seasonal/handicap debut when fourth at Windsor in May, despite having not been ideally placed, so he remains capable of better as he goes further up in trip. The 3-y-o can open his account in a first-time tongue strap, though Stonking also made an encouraging return and is feared most, ahead of Sharp Distinction.
Nearly all are considered seriously but the very lightly raced pair KYLE OF LOCHALSH (nap) & Stonking bring hopes for improvement.

1st (4) (1.62/1 +28%) Jesse Evans |
1.62/1(+28%) | (4) Jesse Evans 1.62/1, Useful gelding. Bit below form second of 8 in minor event (7/5) at Bellewstown (12.2f, good to soft) 7 days ago, no match for winner. Back up in trip and may strip fitter for that run. Stays 2m1f on the level so 1m4f and a steady pace was no good to him at Bellewstown. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (1.62/1 -8%) Tax For Max |
1.62/1(-8%) | (5) Tax For Max 1.62/1, Useful jumps winner and on the level. Won 6-runner novice chase (1/5) at Wexford (16f, good to soft) on debut over fences 23 days ago, easily. Big player on these terms back on the level. Ran nowhere near mark of 110 last year and current mark likely still flatters him. |

3rd (2) (12/1 +25%) Magellan Strait |
12/1(+25%) | (2) Magellan Strait 12/1, Useful gelding. 28/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at the Curragh (16f, good) 12 days ago. Blinkers now the headgear of choice. Never a factor over 2m at the Curragh last time; better than that and blinkers tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (12/1 +40%) Female Soldier |
12/1(+40%) | (3) Female Soldier 12/1, Useful filly. Course winner. 7/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Ballinrobe (12.8f, good) 17 days ago. Good track form, debut winner and fine fifth of 23 in Petingo Premier Handicap (1m5f). |

5th (6) (7/1 +72%) Gatsby Grey |
7/1(+72%) | (6) Gatsby Grey 7/1, Useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Eleventh of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.6f, good to soft, 14/1) 77 days ago. Open to improvement on this just his second Flat start. Bumper and dual hurdles winner, rated 137 in the latter discipline; second Flat start. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (6/1 -100%) Suprise Package |
6/1(-100%) | (9) Suprise Package 6/1, Useful jumps winner, making Flat debut. 12/1, 32¼ lengths sixth of 9 to Jonbon in Top Novices' Hurdle at Aintree (16.5f, good), never travelling well. Off 15 months but he's a major player if fully tuned up. Top rider booked and yard flying but surely going to need his first outing in 15 months. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (200/1 -203%) Goodbye Someday |
200/1(-203%) | (7) Goodbye Someday 200/1, Fairly useful jumps winner. First run since leaving John E. Kiely when last of 17 in maiden (80/1) at this C&D (good) on Flat debut 21 days ago. Three-time hurdles winner was tailed off in C&D maiden last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (250/1 -279%) Patrick Joseph |
250/1(-279%) | (8) Patrick Joseph 250/1, Remains a maiden after 32 Flat runs. 250/1, seventh of 8 in minor event at Bellewstown (12.2f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Back up in trip. Longstanding maiden in all codes; no chance in this company. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Despite being rated lower than a couple of these over hurdles, TAX FOR MAX is very much the horse to beat on official Flat ratings. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding boasts a triple-digit mark, something few of these rivals could ever aspire to. A winner over fences at Wexford last month, the six-year-old arrives here in rude health. Jesse Evans is a very smart hurdler but has yet to reach those same heights on the level. It may be that the Noel Meade-trained gelding just needs a set of hurdles in front of him. Gatsby Grey could be the most interesting contender, given that he is a decent National Hunt horse who is totally unexposed in this sphere. Trainer Oliver McKiernan does well in these races, so the seven-year-old deserves maximum respect.
TAX FOR MAX is better known as a useful jumper but he's a major player on these terms back on the level so he looks the one to beat. Jesse Evans is a big danger back over a more suitable trip, with Suprise Package interesting on Flat debut.
With the benefit of last week's return at Bellewstown under his belt and back over a more suitable trip, JESSE EVANS is the selection

8/1(+56%) | (7) Ectocross 8/1, Winner at Lingfield in March. 22/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 12 days ago. Needs to build on that. Ran well in his first two handicaps but his progress has stalled since; needs full revival. |

2nd (5) (2.75/1 +31%) Obama Army |
2.75/1(+31%) | (5) Obama Army 2.75/1, Winner at Bath in May. 8/1, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good) 14 days ago. Visor replaces cheekpieces and he's likely to give it another good go. Engaged 8.00 Kempton Wednesday. Running well in handicaps in 2023; first-time visor. |

3rd (2) (10/1 +17%) Feyha |
10/1(+17%) | (2) Feyha 10/1, Newcastle nursery winner who stepped up on her reappearance when third of 6 in handicap (11/1) at Brighton (9.9f, good) 16 days ago. Change of headgear may enable her to settle better. 1m2f AW winner for A Balding (in a hood); some promise latest and hood returns today. |

4th (6) (1.5/1 +63%) Storm Valley |
1.5/1(+63%) | (6) Storm Valley 1.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in maiden at Lingfield (10f, AW, 28/1). Off 160 days. Makes handicap debut for top yard so improvement could be forthcoming. Promise in three AW runs at up to 1m4f; makes h'cap debut in a modest event; respected. |

5th (1) (3/1 -9%) Kitaro Kich |
3/1(-9%) | (1) Kitaro Kich 3/1, Good fourth of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 2/1) 31 days ago, keeping on having been denied a clear run. That was his most promising run yet and he's now fitted with cheekpieces. Has shown clear winning potential and the addition of cheekpieces can help; contender. |

6th (8) (100/1 -52%) Delightfully Yours |
100/1(-52%) | (8) Delightfully Yours 100/1, Visored for first time, tenth of 11 in handicap at this course (12f, good, 125/1) 8 days ago, slowly away. Established as limited. Poor form in her seven starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
FEYHA took a step forward when third at Brighton and can go a couple of places better off 1lb lower. She does lose Harry Davies' 3lb claim, though, so Strictly Dreaming can give her plenty to think about following a creditable second at Redcar. The unexposed Storm Valley makes her handicap debut and warrants a market check off a break, along with Paradise Row, who ran in the void race at Wolverhampton on Tuesday.
KITARO KICH would have finished closer with a clear run when fourth at Lingfield a month ago and on that evidence, he's capable of winning a race of this nature. Paradise Row and Obama Army are a couple of viable threats.
Storm Valley looks a likely improver now handicapping but KITARO KICH has shown enough to think a similar race could fall his way.

3rd (5) (6.5/1 -30%) Symbol Of Hope |
6.5/1(-30%) | (5) Symbol Of Hope 6.5/1, Returned in rude health this term, landing pair of Bath handicaps before producing 3 fine efforts in defeat, just failing when second of 10 in handicap at this course (5.2f, good to firm, 5/1) 7 days ago. Leading player again. Having a very consistent season and yet remains on a fair mark. |

4th (2) (4.5/1 +36%) Sergeant Tibbs |
4.5/1(+36%) | (2) Sergeant Tibbs 4.5/1, C&D winner. Close second at Ascot in May, though has struggled on quick ground since, failing to beat a rival home over 7f here last month. Others preferred at present. Good runs for this yard over 6f and latest backward step here was over 7f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (25/1 -14%) Firenze Rosa |
25/1(-14%) | (12) Firenze Rosa 25/1, Placed at Windsor on her first 2 outings this year but has disappointed both starts since, only ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Looks up against it in stronger contest than she need contest. Below par of late but still dangerous to dismiss under conditions that suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (80/1 -400%) Beauen Arrows |
80/1(-400%) | (11) Beauen Arrows 80/1, Placed 3 times at Kempton this season, third of 12 in minor event (10/3) there (7f) 50 days ago. Bit more required if he's to shed his maiden tag back in a handicap. Placed again last tine in a 7f novice but 0-12 and had his chances in low-grade handicaps. |

7th (7) (10/1 -25%) McCauley's Tavern |

Potentially well treated if putting his best foot forward with tongue tie/refitted cheekpieces on. Now tackling his first British handicap off a reduced mark and cheekpieces return. |

9th (6) (50/1 -25%) Endowed |
50/1(-25%) | (6) Endowed 50/1, Won at Epsom last season for Tony Carroll but hasn't shown much in 2 starts so far this yard, faring no better after a wind-op when seventh of 8 in handicap at Ffos Las (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Underwent a third wind operation prior to a quiet debut for this yard at Ffos Las. |

Cheekpieces back on. Lowest mark for some time but others are preferred. Beaten a good way out last time at Salisbury (6f) and he runs that track well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SYMBOL OF HOPE has been in fine fettle and was just denied a third victory of the season when beaten by a nose here over 5f last Thursday. The five-year-old is yet to win over 6f, but the manner of that performance suggested it is worth another try, especially being 1lb lower. McCauley's Tavern is tried in a first-time tongue-tie, with cheekpieces reapplied, which might help to make a difference, while The Cruising Lord and Libra Tiger appear best of the remainder.
THE CRUISING LORD has barely put a foot wrong since joining Robyn Brisland and is fancied to get off the mark for the season with the benefit of useful apprentice Kaiya Fraser in the saddle. Symbol of Hope has also enjoyed a fine season, holding his form well after 2 wins at Bath, and he should be bang in the mix again after going close here last week. Libra Tiger also arrives in good form and can complete the placings.
Mark Loughnane's MCCAULEY'S TAVERN might be the one now tackling his first British handicap off a reduced mark.

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.
