13:15 Newbury Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

SAVVY KINGDOM made a promising start to his career when third over 6f at Windsor last month. Sean Woods' charge was beaten just one and three quarter lengths that day and he's likely to have improved for that experience. Infinity Blue, a son of Blue Point, is of most interest out of the debutants for the powerful combination of Andrew Balding and Oisin Murphy, while Chiedozie heads the remainder.

SAVVY KINGDOM shaped well when third on his debut at Windsor last month and may well be able to make his experience count against a field largely consisting of newcomers. Debora's Dream, Sketch and Infinity Blue all make appeal on paper for respected yards and require market checks.

The vote goes to SAVVY KINGDOM after a promising debut although the betting will provide clues with a host of newcomers in the line-up.

Trainer Aidan O'Brien triumphed in this contest last year and he can repeat the dose with newcomer HENRY LONGFELLOW, a colt bred in the purple being a son of multiple Group 1 winner Minding. He may well need further in time, but the two-year-old may have enough pace on this occasion to see off the likes of stablemate Master Of The Hunt and Mythology, who drops in class having performed with credit in the Railway Stakes. Ocean Conquest and Versatile are other newcomers to consider.

There should be more to come from MYTHOLOGY, who was rather run off his feet in Group 2 company last time. This stiffer test of stamina will suit and he can open his account. There are plenty of interesting newcomers on show including the Aidan O'Brien pair, Henry Longfellow and Master of The Hunt. They may provide the chief threat.

The experience gained by MYTHOLOGY in two races could prove crucial in a likely duel with Henry Longfollow

Al Aasy is the highest rated of these and he deserves to be taken very seriously, but his last of five over 1m4f at Newmarket earlier this month is a concern, therefore the nod goes to HIGHLAND AVENUE. Charlie Appleby's five-year-old hasn't won for more than two years but he's been running well in defeat this term, most recently when a good fourth in the Wolferton at Ascot. A repeat of that effort wouldn't see him too far away, while Epic Poet is another to note.

A very smart performer in his prime, AL AASY wasn't on a going day on his return from a lengthy absence at Newmarket 3 weeks ago but fancied to leave that effort well behind, William Haggas' 6-y-o can notch a sixth career success at the expense of Highland Avenue, who has returned in good order this season and should be bang there back in this small-field scenario. Phantom Flight can fill out third spot.

Al Aasy is a clear pick at his best but was last of five on his reappearance so it may be worth opposing him with HIGHLAND AVENUE.

A fairly open contest in which PEARLS AND RUBIES gets the vote. Only narrowly denied in the Chesham at Royal Ascot last month, she shaped as though this shorter stamina test won't inconvenience her and looks the one to beat. Gunzburg is her biggest danger back up in distance following a fair effort in Listed company at Tipperary earlier this month. She finished a close-up second in Group 2 company before that, while Gaenari adds further spice to the race.

GUNZBURG showed much improved form when runner-up in the Airlie Stud Stakes here earlier this month and probably found the race coming too soon when down the field in a listed event at Tipperary 4 days later. She could be worth chancing over Pearls And Rubies, who is bound to be popular after her Chesham near-miss. The once-raced Kairyu and Buyin Buyin can fight out third spot.

The Chesham second PEARLS AND RUBIES was able to win over 5f on her debut. Even though she needed every yard, this trip should be fine

Narrowly denied on his return from a 111-day break at Uttoxeter last month, WAVERING DOWN deserves a change in luck and the drop in trip could prove ideal on this occasion. Jeremy Scott's charge is narrowly preferred to Fenna's Loss and Cousu Main, while Pardon Me has a long absence to overcome but arrives on a hat-trick. The veteran Pink Eyed Pedro and Appreciate are entitled to be thereabouts too.

FENNA'S LOSS led home Cousu Main at Hexham and that duo are taken to go well again here, with Mark Walford's gelding fancied to confirm that form. Uttoxeter second Wavering Down can complete the placings in a race where few are hard to rule out.

Top of the list is WAVERING DOWN, who was clear of the others when losing out only narrowly to one in a very determined mood last time.

KINBARA is sure to be a warm order having bolted up at Wexford earlier this month. The five-year-old appeared to relish the step up in trip on that occasion and appears to have been found an excellent opportunity. Jeepydoff Meel has run well on all three starts since moving from Gordon Elliott and may improve again now upped in trip. Mr Rumbalicious has his first run for Jimmy Moffatt and can't be discounted receiving the weight-for-age allowance.

KINBARA ran to a borderline useful level when making a winning hurdling debut at Wexford 15 days ago and this looks an outstanding opportunity to follow up that success. Jeepydoff Meel is the obvious one for the forecast.

The recent Wexford scorer KINBARA is fully proven in terms of stamina, so receives the confident vote over Jeepydoff Meel.

SWEET WILLIAM created a big impression when scoring over 1m4f at Doncaster last time and he can follow up that success here. John and Thady Gosden's charge shaped as if this hike in trip would be no issue, scoring even more comfortably than the winning distance of four and a quarter lengths might suggest. Nathanael Greene is feared most after running well in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle last time and he should pose a threat off the same mark, while Postileo and Novel Legend could also feature.

A half-brother to St Leger/Irish Derby winner Hurricane Lane, SWEET WILLIAM opened his account in a canter in a 6-runner Doncaster novice (11.9f) 15 days ago and, with his opening mark looking very appealing, he's fancied to make a bold bid quickly upped to 2m on handicap debut. Novel Legend continues to shape well and is feared, along with Northumberland Plate fourth Nathaniel Greene, who sports first-time blinkers.

An open handicap but Ebor entry SWEET WILLIAM is temptingly handicapped if his penultimate effort is taken at face value.

AL HUJAIJA took a big leap forward to go down narrowly at Newbury just over a fortnight ago and, given the way she finished off her race on that occasion, this extra furlong should suit. Squeaker shaped with plenty of promise to finish runner-up at Doncaster on debut, despite being slowly away, and improvement is likely. Carolina Reaper wasn't disgraced when sixth behind Snellen in the Chesham at Royal Ascot last month and will appreciate these calmer waters.

Roger Varian's AL HUJAIJA shaped very well when runner-up at Newbury last time and looks the way to go with the extra furlong a plus too for this Kodiac filly. Carolina Reaper also has the form to play a big part and is next on the list ahead of Squeaker and Oops who can fight it out for minor honours.

This can go to CAROLINA REAPER who sets a useful standard on her close sixth in the Chesham four weeks ago.

BIG GOSSEY may be 9lb higher than when he was a close second in this race last year, but he has flourished since and makes strong appeal in his bid to go one place better than 12 months ago. His fourth-placed finish in the Rockingham 20 days ago puts him firmly in the picture and, with the additional yardage not expected to be an issue, he can defy a 2lb rise to score here. However, there are dangers aplenty, with Hurricane Ivor, Verhoyen and Rockingham second Master Matt all live dangers.

A typically competitive renewal of this valuable handicap, which can go the way of ALBASHEER. He shaped better than his finishing position would suggest on his belated handicap debut in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot and is lurking on a potentially handy mark. Blairmayne was in good form during the spring and he could be involved in the finish, along with Strike Red. Others to consider include Big Gossey and Master Matt.

It may be worth taking a chance with HISPANIC, who looked useful on soft ground at two and has found 5f inadequate in three 2023 starts

The Feral O'Brien stable can do little wrong at present and this looks like a good opportunity for the unexposed DANCILA to follow up on a taking success at Newton Abbot last month. That was his handicap debut in this sphere and he can get the better of the in-form pair Belvedere Blast and Myristica. The capable Too Friendly and the hat-trick seeking Everyonesgame must also enter calculations.

The manner in which MYRISTICA has landed short odds in maiden/novice events on her last 3 starts suggests she can cope with the demands of a competitive race on her first venture into handicap company over hurdles. Dancila, one of 4 runners for Fergal O'Brien, has also done well in his short hurdle career to date and is second choice ahead of Too Friendly, who represents the very much in-form James Owen stable.

Not many of these would appreciate rain. MYRISTICA seems to go on most surfaces and she's coming along nicely over hurdles.

Only narrowly denied over this distance at Beverley earlier this month, GOOD POINT looks the one to beat if reproducing that effort stepping up in class. He is fairly well related and the fact he is a half-brother to the Group 1-placed Decrypt means there could be much more to come. Mutasawi is surely a lot better than his latest outing suggests and he is feared most ahead of Mirroring.

TROPICAL ISLAND hails from a yard doing well with its juveniles and she's taken to go in at the first time of asking. Good Point has much the best form of those with experience and seems sure to be on the premises, while newcomer Cast No Shadow and Mutasawi need considering for minor honours.

Preference is for GOOD POINT, who found stacks of improvement with his bold bid at Beverley and sets a fair standard on that near miss.

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

GAIUS got off the mark over obstacles at Worcester last month and Olly Murphy's charge makes plenty of appeal on his handicap debut. Calevade is 2-2 at this track, having won in May and June over C&D, and should give another good account of himself, while Call Me Rocky has a 7lb penalty for his dominant win at Newton Abbot on Monday and can't be ignored.

The pick of several appealing candidates in this competitive race is CALEVADE, who made it 2-2 over C&D with a clear-cut success in a 13-runner handicap last time and an 11 lb rise may not be enough to stop him in his tracks. Gaius may well have more to offer now making the switch to handicap company and he is feared most, albeit only just as Luttrell Lad is potentially very dangerous off this reduced mark. The selection's stablemate Horn Cape is also respected with Rachael Blackmore aboard.

The 6yo HORN CAPE should relish making a return to soft underfoot conditions, so is preferred over Call Me Rocky and Gaius.

Though Garrus merits respect having defeated Commanche Falls in the Abernant Stakes at Newmarket in April, he might struggle to confirm that form under a 3lb penalty. The latter also makes plenty of appeal, but a chance is taken on COLD CASE. Ground conditions were said to have scuppered his chances in the Sandy Lane last time, but they should suit here and Karl Burke's unexposed sprinter might resume his progress. Lezoo is firmly in the mix on official ratings and she is a key player in receipt of weight.

Preference is for COMMANCHE FALLS, who boasts strong form credentials and arrives on the back of a confidence-boosting victory at the Curragh. Annaf and Rohaan head the list of dangers in a highly competitive renewal of this Group 3 contest.

This race didn't go to plan for ROHAAN last year but he was a fine fourth in a Group 1 after and is more than capable at this level.

Just A Spark has been given a 3lb rise for her game success over C&D last month and there appears to no reason to suggest why she won't go close again. James Ferguson applies blinkers for the first time to the newly gelded Hover On The Wind, who merits respect, but the vote goes to ABATE. The seven-year-old has been in fine form so far this season, having won twice already, and, although beaten at Hamilton last time, he is capable of getting back to winning ways.

A chance is taken on EQUIANO SPRINGS, who is now 2 lb below his last winning mark and a reproduction of his Haydock effort at the end of May would bring him firmly into the reckoning. The 9-y-o paid the price for racing up with the pace in a strongly-run contest over 7f at York since and dropping back in trip here looks a good move. Just A Spark scored over C&D last time and should be on the premises once again, while Mokaatil is also shortlisted.

Just A Spark is progressing well but ABATE has looked as good as ever this year and he can register his third C&D success.

Ladies Church arrives on the back of a comfortable success in Listed company and she merits the utmost respect along with White Lavender, who landed a Group 3 in France when last seen. Go Athletico made a winning stable debut for Adrian McGuinness last month, when beating Ano Syra, and he is another to consider, though preference is for ART POWER. Tim Easterby's stable star finished an admirable fourth in the July Cup at Newmarket last Saturday and can maintain his unbeaten course record down in class.

An interesting renewal of this Group 2 with ART POWER taken to maintain his unbeaten record at this track having bounced straight back to form with an excellent effort in the July Cup last week. Ladies Church, White Lavender and Go Athletico are all credible rivals, though.

Last Saturday's July Cup fourth ART POWER boasts a flawless record in Ireland and can maintain that trend on this rare venture over 5f

Francky Du Berlais comes here in search of a hat-trick in this prestigious contest, but it may be his younger, less exposed stablemate COURTLAND that outdoes him on this occasion. The son of Court Cave arrives here on four-timer, having scored comfortably over C&D recently, and he looks as though he may be up to the task. Last year's narrow second La Domaniale is key player again after a confidence-boosting win at Aintree, while Gloire D'Athon is one who has put together an excellent record over the larger obstacles.

A fiercely competitive Summer Plate but it's hard to go against BORN FAMOUS who has gone unbeaten in four starts since joining Iain Jardine yet still looks ahead of her mark under a 5 lb penalty for her easy Perth success. Chief Black Robe is another who hasn't looked back for a yard switch and feared most in a bid for his own five-timer. Francky du Berlais teed himself up well for his hat-trick attempt when third over C&D and must enter calculations too. Gloire d'Athon completes the shortlist.

Several of these are in good form but FRANCKY DU BERLAIS (nap) is back on a good mark and can win this race for the third year running.

UNEQUAL LOVE built on her racecourse debut to score over this distance at Leicester, and she left the impression that there would be more to come on that occasion. Her dam was Listed-placed during her career and, with more improvement likely, she can get the better of Billyjoh, who looked a smart prospect when scoring at Doncaster on debut. Elusive Angel looks the pick of the remainder.

There should be more to come from recent Leicester scorer UNEQUAL LOVE, who is preferred to fellow previous winner Billyjoh. Elusive Angel still looked green at Catterick and should also be thereabouts if close to the form she showed when second on her AW debut in the spring.

The vote goes to UNEQUAL LOVE, who scored in good style at Leicester two weeks ago and has plenty of scope for further progress.

The hat-trick seeking Judicial Law is respected, having won twice in May, but a 7lb rise tempers enthusiasm. The Milton Harris-trained SONGO was stepped up in trip for the first time at Newton Abbot last month when running out an emphatic winner on his handicap bow and further improvement is expected. Glinger Flame stayed on well to finish second at Hexham when last seen and is another worthy of consideration.

BREAD AND BUTTER shaped very well on his stable debut when runner-up at the Punchestown Festival, closing all the way to the line after meeting trouble, so he is taken to get back to winning ways with his yard in excellent form. Heading the list of dangers is last year's winner of the race Johnson's Blue, while Judicial Law is respected in his hat-trick bid.

Joe Tizzard's NAME IN LIGHTS (nap) impressed on his return to hurdles at Newton Abbot, so gets the vote ahead of Judicial Law.

A typically wide-open renewal in which many will fancy their chances, and only a tentative vote can go to RELIEF RALLY. A winner of her first two starts, she ran a mighty race when narrowly denied in the Queen Mary last month. The daughter of Kodiac is likely to need luck in running but that Royal Ascot form makes her a leading candidate. Juniper Berries finished four lengths behind the selection on that occasion but she's entitled to be in the mix, along with stablemate and Coventry-sixth Bobsleigh. The recent Listed-scorer Son Of Corballis can also figure, while others to note include World Of Darcy, Beenham and The Camden Colt.

RELIEF RALLY confirmed herself an excellent prospect when a narrow second in the Queen Mary and, if she can back that up, she should be able to resume winning ways. Bobsleigh also ran well at Royal Ascot and he looks the main threat ahead of Son of Corballis, who landed an Irish listed race last time.

The weights are determined by purchase price and RELIEF RALLY (nap) would appear to be in pole position off only 9st.

Clive Cox appears to have found the key to HAVANA BLUE, who has won his last two races in cosy style, and although stepping up to a mile for the first time, his running style suggests it shouldn't be an issue. One Nation failed to beat a rival home in the Britannia at Royal Ascot last month, but he could be worth another chance, while the consistent Dutch Decoy, who is a previous C&D winner, looks to have solid place claims.

A number arrive with claims, including progressive HAVANA BLUE. Clive Cox's 3-y-o posted a career-best effort when doubling his tally over 7f here 3 weeks ago and, totally unexposed at 1m, he could well be up to completing the hat-trick. Dutch Decoy is knocking firmly on the door and he's feared, along with Saxon King and Indemnify.

The vote goes to BOPEDRO following his close sixth in the Buckingham Palace, whilst his latest York effort can be forgiven.

SAVETHELASTDANCE has shown plenty of ability in her career to date and she holds the most compelling claims in this contest. Aidan O'Brien's three-year-old looked a superstar when winning easily in the Cheshire Oaks before running with plenty of credit when second in the Oaks at Epsom last time, therefore she should take the beating. Warm Heart won the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot on her previous outing and is feared most, although she will have to improve again to score here, while Bluestocking completes the shortlist.

SAVETHELASTDANCE is taken to make up for her short-priced reversal in the Oaks at Epsom by landing the Irish version. Warm Heart can confirm her Ribblesdale superiority over Bluestocking and Lumiere Rock and give her stablemate most to do.

Conditions should come right for SAVETHELASTDANCE (nap) who probably found the ground a bit too lively when an excellent 2nd at Epsom

ROXBORO ROAD is attractively weighted and signalled a return to form at Cartmel last month. He can get back to winning ways. The Big Jetaway is feared most.

Dungar Glory was denied a hat-trick when stepping up in class for her most recent run and she could struggle off top-weight here, so GAREEB gets the nod. She is now 5lb better off with Dungar Glory for a two-and-three-quarter-length defeat over C&D last month. Tabuk makes a lot of appeal on his stable debut for Grant Tuer and adds further spice to the race.

An open handicap in which a final chance is given to BALTIC VOYAGE, with the drop back to 1¼m potentially in his favour. Cosmos Raj and Blueflagflyinghigh merit respect as recent course winners. Casilli has also tasted success here and is another who can't be dismissed having dropped back to a favourable mark.

This looks a bit tricky but recent course winner COSMOS RAJ gets the vote ahead of Blueflagflyinghigh and Tabuk.

Now that the penny had dropped for ENSEL DU PERCHE after a taking win at Market Rasen earlier in the month, there should be plenty more to come from the son of Anabaa Blue. A 4lb rise for that success could prove lenient and he should have too much for recent course winner Hungry Tiger, while Glan Y Gors, who ran well over C&D last time out, completes the shortlist.

Veteran TONTO'S SPIRIT signalled he's ready to go close again when fourth over C&D last time so Cartmel's winning-most horse is taken to thwart Glan Y Gors in his bid to follow up last year's victory in this contest. Hungry Tiger and Ardera Cross both have winning form here too and can't be ruled out of an open handicap.

A chance is taken that the lightly raced chaser WE'LL GO AGAIN can reverse Market Rasen placings with Ensel Du Perche.

Richard Hannon has won this race for the last two years, so Mr Wonderful, who made a low-key debut at Doncaster nine days ago, must be respected. Free Nation might have been a beaten favourite on both of his starts to date, but he should not be far away if a first-time hood allows him to settle. However, L'ENNEMI, a 190,000-euro purchase, is a half-brother to the Group 1 winner Polydream and he is fancied to make a winning debut.

FREE NATION needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Doncaster 9 days ago but he had previously shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up on debut at Windsor, so the son of Siyouni is worth another chance to put his experience to good use and open his account. L'Ennemi and Al Saif both make appeal on paper and are feared most of the newcomers.

Several of the beginners look likely types and the market needs checking but L'ENNEMI has fair claims on the face of it.

NOVAKAI was a good second in the Musidora at York behind Oaks winner Soul Sister on her penultimate effort and that form entitles her to be the one to beat in this field. Karl Burke's charge struggled to land a blow in the Group 1 Prix de Diane at Chantilly last time, but she can stamp her authority back in these calmer waters. Time Lock should also be thereabouts after a creditable run in the Lancashire Oaks at Haydock last time, while Sound Angela completes the shortlist.

Ground firmer than good would be a minor concern for TIME LOCK but she's essentially a really solid performer in this grade and still appeals as the type who could do even better when circumstances allow. She's taken to get the better of Novakai, who needs to shrug off a below-par effort in France last time, with the unbeaten Truthful and Sound Angela others that can make their presence felt.

The choice is NOVAKAI whose runner-up finishes in the Fillies' Mile and Musidora make good reading at this level.

After disappointing behind the reopposing Yashin (first) and Point King (second) in a Group 3 at Leopardstown, the classy Emily Dickinson was back on song with a very creditable fourth in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot last month. With forecast softer conditions in her favour, Aidan O'Brien's filly has strong claims here, but slight preference is for the ground-versatile ROSSCARBERY, who has also fared well at Group 1 level. 10 furlongs wasn't far enough for her in the Pretty Polly here three weeks ago, but she emerged with plenty of credit in fourth and the recent Munster Oaks winner touched off Emily Dickinson when landing the Group 3 Stanerra Stakes last summer.

EMILY DICKINSON holds the clear edge on form so this course scorer is fancied to resume winning ways on the back of her good effort in the Ascot Gold Cup. Pretty Polly fourth Rosscarbery rates the chief threat to Aidan O'Brien's smart stayer with the progressive Okita Soushi and unexposed Gooloogong appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

This looks like a good opportunity for EMILY DICKINSON who sets a solid standard and gets her conditions

SOBEGRAND was regressive in a light career on the Flat, but is doing the complete opposite of that over hurdles and looks up to defying a penalty over this longer trip based on the manner of his Stratford win. Buck of Maine showed some promise on the first of 2 bumper runs and is bred to be suited by the step up to 2½m. Conquer The Breeze is another with place claims.

The most obvious answer to this very ordinary novice is SOBEGRAND, who comes here after a convincing 2m win at Stratford 18 days ago.

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

CHILLINGHAM went well for a long way in the Copper Horse Stakes at Royal Ascot last month, and he can strike on the drop in grade. A winner on his two previous starts over this distance, the unexposed four-year-old should have too much for the capable Sir Rumi and Mr Curiosity, who seems to be improving with each start since joining new connections.

None of these can be ruled out with confidence. MR CURIOSITY shaped as though his turn may again be near at Chester recently and he could be the answer. Chillingham is by no means fully exposed and looks a big threat on the back of his respectable effort at Royal Ascot. He is second choice, albeit only marginally as a back-to-form Pride of Priory would also have a serious chance.

The most striking contender is CHILLINGHAM (nap), who has a record of 3-6 and could resume his progress on this drop back in trip.

POST NO BILLS' winning run may have come to an end at Aintree last month, but he was a determined scorer over C&D on his penultimate start and a third win in four starts look like a distinct possibility. Jelski just held on for a game success over further here last month and a drop back in trip is unlikely to be an inconvenience, while Croagh Patrick deserves a change in luck, having been runner-up on four of his last six starts.

A dual winner over fences (latterly over C&D) POST NO BILLS made a good fist of things against a well-treated sort for a long way at Aintree 5 weeks ago and a repeat should see him go well again with his rider taking off a valuable 5 lb. Another recent course winner Jelski and the consistent, if slightly frustrating Croagh Patrick head up the dangers.

Sam England's CROAGH PATRICK has some quirks but is largely consistent, so might just hold sway over Post No Bills and Jelski.

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

This is a far easier assignment for Oaks fourth MAMAN JOON, who found things happening too quickly for her when last in the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot last time. However, all of these are unexposed and the likes of Mambo Sunset and Humankind are nicely-bred individuals who can give the selection something to think about now they switch to turf.

RED DANIELLE's latest effort can be excused and she is appealing in view of her debut promise at Goodwood where she was touched off by a potentially useful type in Royal Mila (winner again since), in turn pulling nicely clear of the re-opposing Malka in third. Maman Joon is the one to beat judged on her effort in the Oaks and it will be disappointing if she's not involved in the finish. Mambo Sunset and Sweet Memories are also of interest.

While there's a nice bit of potential on show, MAMAN JOON is the standout contender on her fourth in the Oaks.

ALA KAIFI very nearly shed his maiden tag when beaten a short-head over 1m2f at Doncaster last time and this looks like a nice opportunity to go one better. Ismail Mohammed's runner is making his handicap debut and an opening mark of 70 doesn't appear out of his grasp. Last-time-out winner I Still Have Faith should pose the biggest danger after scoring over 1m2f at Nottingham, while Kodiman shouldn't be ignored.

This can go the way of I STILL HAVE FAITH, who got off the mark in remarkable fashion at Nottingham a fortnight ago (blew the start and forfeited at least 6 lengths). Nudged up a just a couple of pounds, he's fancied to double his tally at the expense of Kodiman, who wasn't seen to best effect at Lingfield last month and should have more to offer. Ala Kaifi and Moush can do battle for third spot.

The vote goes to I STILL HAVE FAITH who has responded well to the fitting of a hood including when winning at Nottingham last time.

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

DEMOCRACY hasn't progressed as maybe expected following his debut success here in April, twice finishing down the field in Group contests at this track, but he is worth a chance to return to form, especially with softer underfoot conditions potentially being in his favour. Oligopoly has run with credit on both starts to date and shapes as if a drop to 6f would bring about improvement, while Prince X J, who contested the Coventry at Royal Ascot, last week's Navan winner Ocean Baroque and Sanshiro are all capable of a decent showing.

Joseph O'Brien has a good record in this race and may be able to add to it with OLIGOPOLY. He again showed plenty when beaten only by a pair of well-bred newcomers at Gowran last month and looks one to keep onside now switching to a nursery, especially with a handy claimer booked. Ocean Baroque and Poppadom are a couple of potential threats.

Preference is for last week's winner OCEAN BAROQUE\ who appreciates soft and he's taken to confirm form with \bSanshiro

A 5lb rise following a cosy win over C&D earlier this month could prove too much for Adamaris, so ENTHUSED gets the vote. Only narrowly denied over a similar trip at Stratford on his most recent outing, he looks the one to beat off the same mark. Mcgowan's Pass is another to bear in mind dropping in distance following a fair second over 2m4f at Uttoxeter last month.

NADIM has a solid profile and his latest success at Stratford is backed up by the time, so he gets the nod ahead of Rakhine State, who scored off this mark over the larger obstacles recently. Adamaris is another major player.

Preference is for ADAMARIS, who came from off the pace to make a winning handicap debut over C&D a fortnight ago.

SPIRIT CATCHER may have disappointed at Sandown last time out, but he deserves a change in luck having been runner-up on his three starts prior to that. This track suits front runners, which should play to his strengths, and the son of New Bay is narrowly preferred to Pontefract second Imperial Sands and Baltimore Boy, who remains unexposed and open to improvement.

Plenty are in with a shout. GOLDEN MELODY has fallen in the weights and got back on track when runner-up at Beverley last time so edges the vote off an unchanged mark. Imperial Sands and handily-weighted Baltimore Boy appeal as the main threats to Tim Easterby's mare and can have a say too. C&D winner Copper And Five completes the shortlist.

17:10 Cartmel Handicap Chase (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow

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

The key to this race looks to be the recent clash over C&D between WHATABOUTYEH (first) and Lights Are Green (second), with the former expected to come out on top again. Sam England's charge looked to be well on top at the finish on that occasion and soft conditions should be in his favour once more. Colemanstown Lad cannot be ruled out on his first run since January.

A very quick turnaround provides WHATABOUTYEH with an obvious excuse for his failure to land short odds back hurdling at Southwell last time and he can get back on the up returned to the larger obstacles. Lights Are Green chased him home over C&D last month and can do so again.

He was not seen to best effect over hurdles last time but WHATABOUTYEH may confirm earlier C&D superiority over Lights Are Green.

With six consecutive wins, Sparks Fly has made rapid progress since she switched to turf in April. Laura Pearson has been in the saddle for the last four of those successes and it would be folly to suggest another bold effort wasn't possible. However, this is an ease in grade for DON'T TELL CLAIRE, whose game second in the Kensington Palace at Royal Ascot is of a higher standard and earns her a slender vote of confidence. Conservationist and Eximious also appeal strongly at this level.

There should be more to come from ROWAYEH who can complete a hat-trick and bring to an end the remarkable winning run of Sparks Fly, who was competing in 0-60s in the spring but now finds herself top weight in a good quality fillies' handicap. Don't Tell Claire completes the shortlist.

Sparks Fly remains of great interest but well-connected ROWAYEH can improve further following a convincing Sandown win.

Final Watch was a good winner over C&D last Friday and another bold bid can be expected, but he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals, such as STAR OF ORION. Ralph Beckett's charge wasn't disgraced in the Bunbury Cup at this venue last week and dropped 1lb in the ratings, he could be on a dangerous mark. First Folio completes the shortlist back in these calmer waters.

CANDLE OF HOPE fared best of those ridden prominently in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and, up against much more exposed types, she's worth a chance to get back to winning ways. A bold showing is likely from recent C&D winner Final Watch and Star of Orion should be on the premises.

The vote goes to CANDLE OF HOPE (nap) who suggested the return to 7f would suit when fifth in the 1m Sandringham last month.

MACHNAMH arrives here on the back of a close second against colts at Limerick a month ago and that form suggests that the daughter of Teofilo could be hard to beat back against her own sex. Beauty Bella is a useful filly who could prove to be the main threat to the selection following an encouraging effort at Leopardstown. Coco Crush has an eye-catching pedigree and is a newcomer to note, while Perfect Poise and Swan Band complete the shortlist.

COCO CRUSH has an eye-catching pedigree and represents a top yard, so she's capable of making a successful start. Machnamh is the clear pick of those with form and should be able to take advantage if the selection doesn't come up to expectations.

The standard is set by MACHNAMH who was only narrowly denied at Limerick and a repeat of that level of form may make her hard to beat

A determined winner over C&D recently, GLENDOWN should have plenty more to come off a 3lb higher mark. Tim Easterby's charge is a consistent sort at this level and he gets the vote ahead of Strength 'n Honour and Thornaby Pearl, who returned from a long absence with an encouraging effort over slightly shorter at Doncaster. Wreck It Ryley has only run the four times on turf and is another to consider.

Having shaped with encouragement on his recent reappearance at Doncaster, THORNABY PEARL looks the way to go. The 5-y-o evidently goes well here and is now 4 lb below his last winning mark. Glendown hit the target over this C&D last time and is clear second choice ahead of Wreck It Ryley and South Dakota Sioux.

An open race in which WRECK IT RYLEY gets the vote ahead of recent C&D winner Glendown.

Following a comfortable success over this distance at Bath earlier this month, BEAU ROC is fancied to secure a double, albeit off a 5lb raised mark. She has been fairly consistent of late and can be forgiven following a disappointing spin over 6f at Newmarket on her penultimate outing. Miss Belladonna filled the runner-up spot at Yarmouth last month and is feared most off the same mark, while Mrs Trump completes the shortlist.

The one who makes most appeal is BURJ MALINKA. A good third in a race that worked out well over C&D in April, he's largely remained in form since and this return to the minimum trip could be just the ticket operating from his last winning mark. Bath scorer Beau Roc is a threat with a repeat, whilst it would come as no surprise to see a better showing from Speedacus back from 5 weeks off.

Benadalid has been running well in defeat of late and he must go on the shortlist eased 1lb in the ratings since his most recent run. Equion gained a confidence-boosting success over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last month and he's another to enter the reckoning, though preference is for BILLY ROBERTS. Second in this off a 2lb higher mark last year, it would be no surprise to see Simon Whitaker's veteran mount a serious challenge as he bids to go one better.

BILLY ROBERTS took a step back in the right direction at Pontefract last time and could be the answer if building on that having dropped to a good mark. Bushfire paid the price somewhat for quite a big move into contention at Chester last week and is second choice, while Jewel Maker can also have a say if returning to the pick of his form this season.

These conditions would be a concern for a few but not for BUSHFIRE (nap), who offered more in a race not run to suit last weekend.

In a field dominated by unraced candidates, the vote goes to SNAFIYA, who has shown promise on all three career starts. She lost little in defeat behind subsequent Albany fifth Pretty Crystal at Ripon on her most recent outing and, with more progression likely, can get the better of the unraced Glitterella, who is related to a few smart types. Fellow newcomer Queen's Guard is another not to be taken lightly either.

The market should prove highly informative but Michael Bell's Havana Grey filly QUEEN'S GUARD catches the eye on paper and holds a Lowther entry so is taken to make a winning debut at the chief expense of Snafiya, who showed fair form for George Boughey and now starts out for her new yard with plenty to recommend her. Other debutantes Roman Secret and Glitterella are in good hands and worth a market check too.

Snafiya sets the standard but there are some interesting opponents and SALAAMAAT is taken to leave her debut effort well behind.

THUNDER STAR was able to exploit a drop in the handicap when winning at Yarmouth last month and the unexposed Night Of Thunder filly doesn't look overburdened by a subsequent 5lb rise. Jessica Macey's charge shades the vote over recent Ayr second Woobay, who should appreciate a strong pace, while All In The Hips ought to be thereabouts following a string of decent performances.

ALL IN THE HIPS ran with credit when runner-up at Bath 10 days ago and a performance of similar merit could be enough for her to go one better at the likely expense of Thunder Star, who scored at Yarmouth recently. Woobay is also considered.

The vote goes to WOOBAY, who is lightly raced and did better on her first crack at 5f last time. Destiny's Spirit is second choice.

Straight A has to shoulder a 6lb penalty following a two-length success at Yarmouth last month and he could struggle with that in mind, so GOLDEN BUNGLE gets the vote. A comfortable winner over this distance at Leicester last month, she receives both a fillies' and a Band D allowance and could have more to offer upped in class. Others of interest include Nellie Leylax and Chiefman.

The step up to 7f should suit STRAIGHT A who is selected to add to last month's Yarmouth success. The fact that Chiefman went off at 5/4 for his debut suggests he's well regarded and it would be no surprise to see him leave that opening run behind and provide the chief threat. Tasmanian Legend is another who could improve plenty with an outing under his belt, while Magna Vega is a newcomer to keep a close eye on in the betting given Danny Tudhope has a 4-9 record for the Tom Clover yard in 2023.

Harry Eustace's STRAIGHT A has to concede weight all round but there was lots to like about his Yarmouth win and he can defy a penalty

The Karl Burke team have been in flying form recently and the Middleham-based trainer looks to hold another strong chance with his pair here. The Dark Angel colt ICE MAX, a 105,000gns purchase, is related to a few winners and ought to be suited by this trip. He is preferred to stablemate Mannerism, who makes plenty of appeal on paper. Varden struggled at York on debut but he's in good hands to progress, while the Richard Fahey-trained Ajwadi is also noted.

ICE MAX is a full brother to a smart sort and hails from a yard that's well capable of readying a newcomer, so he takes preference over Ajwadi, who will benefit from his initial experience at Carlisle. Try Line is another debutant to consider.

Ice Max and Mannerism are likely looking newcomers but AJWADI is given the chance to show why the money came on debut.

Plenty of connections will be arriving here thinking their runners have a good chance of taking this prize, perhaps none more so than those affiliated with HICKORY. James Fanshawe's charge was just beaten three-quarters of a length when running well in second over 7f at Redcar last time and, off the same mark today, he appears primed for another bold bid. Atrium seems to be the biggest danger now back in these calmer waters after running in the Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot on his latest outing, while Game Set should also be respected on his handicap bow.

GAME SET is the one here who could prove better than a handicapper. The only 3-y-o in the field and a winner over C&D on debut, he should prove more than a match for his rivals and can remain unbeaten. Sir Thomas Gresham looks the main danger, ahead of the admirable Maywake.

Sole 3yo GAME SET has looked very promising when winning two novices (C&D first occasion) and can stretch his unbeaten record to three.

SNUGGLE is proving consistent and may still have a bit more improvement in him, particularly at this trip, so he strikes as a solid option. Royal Dress and Kentucky Bluegrass head the dangers.

A lot of in-form rivals line-up for this deep contest and plenty are in with a chance, but the nod goes to POWERFUL RESPONSE. Edward Bethell's charge arrives here seeking a hat-trick after wins at Newcastle and Hamilton and the most recent of those successes was more comfortably than the winning distance of three-quarters of a length suggests. The three-year-old will have to defy another 4lb rise in the ratings but he appears to be on an upward trajectory and he could take the beating. Back From Dubai looks to be the biggest danger after a cosy success at Beverley, while Kodebreaker heads the remainder.

The vote goes to WAR DEFENDER, who has slipped to an attractive mark and dropping back in trip here will aid his cause after weakening close home when fourth over 9f at Musselburgh recently. Back From Dubai resumed winning ways at Beverley and is next on the list ahead of the hat-trick seeking Powerful Response and the consistent Kodebreaker.

Back From Dubai is respected but POWERFUL RESPONSE has the most potential of these as he chases a hat-trick for his in-form yard.

COPY ARTIST appears to have been found an excellent opportunity to open her account having shown a solid level of form on all starts. She was last seen down the field behind Coppice at Royal Ascot but there doesn't look to be anything of that quality here. However, any market confidence behind the William Haggas-trained newcomer Romilda, who is a daughter of Kingman, would be significant. Classic Times was slowly away at Newbury on debut and is sure to have benefitted from that experience.

COPY ARTIST never figured in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot last month but Andrew Balding's filly had previously been shaping up well in novice company and, returned to calmer waters, she's fancied to bounce back. Romilda is an appealing newcomer for a powerful yard and she needs monitoring. Raimunda and Dreamrocker are others that can do battle for minor honours.

More questions than answers and perhaps ROMILDA will be up to the job on debut. Classic Times is another to consider.

OWNERS DREAM has been running consistently well of late and this looks like a nice opportunity to get his head in front. David O'Meara's runner shaped as if this extra yardage would suit when running with credit in third over 1m2f at Haydock earlier this month and, dropped 1lb by the handicapper for that two-length defeat, he could be on a dangerous mark. Last-time-out winner Baileys Khelstar should also be thereabouts but he'll have to defy a 4lb hike in the ratings, while Graham is not without a chance.

GRAHAM is going the right way and was comfortably on top of the remainder when second at Newbury last time, so he's fancied to go one better despite the presence of Baileys Khelstar, who looks similarly progressive. Latin Verse was better than the result on his latest outing and shouldn't be completely dismissed.

David O'Meara's OWNERS DREAM took a step forward with his Haydock third and gets the nod with more to come now his stamina is drawn out

Darryll Holland applies first-time cheekpieces to Pearl Eye and if they bring out any improvement he shouldn't be far away, however, preference is for TANGO MAN. The son of Kingman has run well on both starts so far this term but, now upped in trip and having his first taste of handicap company, he may prove a cut above these. Pol Roger beat Docklands to land a novice event over 7f here last year and is not without a chance.

TANGO MAN ran to a similar level as on yard debut when plugging on for second in a 7f novice here 15 days ago and, with this step up in trip expected to suit, he could be worth siding with to take a step forward on handicap debut. Pearl Eye continues to run well in handicaps and is a big threat. Pol Roger, who got back on track at Ayr, is also in the mix in an open-looking affair.

The suggestion in a tricky finale is the handicap debutant TANGO MAN. He receives a narrow vote over the C&D scorer Pearl Eye.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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

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

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

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