13:50 York Handicap (Class 2) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Jm Jungle has been in fine fettle and warrants respect off 5lb higher than when scoring at Glorious Goodwood last time. However, preference is for EQUILATERAL, who steps into the handicap ranks. If he can reproduce anything like his King's Stand fifth at Royal Ascot on his penultimate start, he could be the one to beat. Intrinsic Bond and Manila Scouse are both in great heart and should also be considered.

INTRINSIC BOND went down only to a progressive 3-y-o at Ascot last time so the handicapper might have taken a chance leaving his mark unchanged and he's selected to make it 2-3 since joining Michael Wigham. Korker, Jm Jungle and Manila Scouse head the many possible dangers in a typically fierce renewal of the now traditional sprint handicap to open the meeting.

Several of these have excellent form on this track but MANILA SCOUSE continues to improve and he can complete the hat-trick.

14:05 Carlisle Handicap (Class 6) 11f Race Class Flow

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

A tight race to kick things off and plenty are in with a chance. Lechro bolted up at Beverley last time but gets an 8lb rise in the weights which makes life tougher, while Aighear has been running really well without winning of late and is respected. Super Stars is one to watch in the betting on his first start for Julie Camacho but preference is for OWENS LAD, who looks ready to strike having done well in races that haven't been run to suit the last twice. These conditions should be ideal and he looks a major player.

LECHRO took a marked step up in a first-time visor when landing a Beverley handicap in convincing style and, despite the handicapper having a big say, she's worth a chance to follow up at the possible expense of Flying Moon. Aighear arrives in good order and is also expected to be on the premises.

14:25 York Group 3 (Class 1) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A small but select field, with all six declared runners looking to have some sort of chance. However, BALLYMOUNT BOY undoubtedly sets the standard with his second to subsequent Group 1 winner Vandeek in the Richmond Stakes at Glorious Goodwood and he looks the one to beat stepping up from 6f for the first time. Cogitate won impressively on his debut and rates the biggest threat, while runaway Salisbury scorer Hot Fuss may go well at longer odds.

BALLYMOUNT BOY was never stronger than at the finish when a fine second behind subsequent Prix Morny winner Vandeek in the Richmond Stakes at Goodwood 3 weeks ago and, with the step up to 7f expected to suit on that evidence, he gets the nod to come out on top. Impressive Newbury scorer Cogitate looks well worth his place at this higher level and rates next best, ahead of Loose Cannon and Edwardian.

The standard is set by BALLYMOUNT BOY, whose Group 2 form at Glorious Goodwood received an almighty boost last weekend.

SUMMIT has shaped with considerable promise on both her starts to date and this drop back to 6f on a stiff track is fancied to see her get off the mark. Gutsy Girl should have learnt plenty from her debut at Ascot, when held up in a race which suited the frontrunners, and she looks the main danger. Suicide Blonde took a step forward at Yarmouth last time and looks best of the rest.

SUMMIT has shaped with plenty of encouragement on both outings to date and this isn't as strong a race as the novice she contested at Newmarket last time, so she gets the nod ahead of Gutsy Girl, who offered something to work on at Ascot on debut. Suicide Blonde should also be on the premises.

William Haggas' Kodiac filly SUMMIT hold the clear edge on form, so is taken to build on her Newmarket second last time.

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

Joy Choi dead-heated for first place at Salisbury just under a fortnight ago and should remain competitive off 4lb higher in this contest. However, Malcolm Saunders' mare may find SECRET HANDSHEIKH too strong. The son of Mayson returned to form with a good second at Yarmouth last Wednesday and could take all the beating off the same mark here, with Luke Catton now on board to claim a handy 5lb. The in-form Confederation also enters the reckoning.

A C&D winner on his sole previous visit here as a 2-y-o, SECRET HANDSHEIKH looks the way to go on the back of a solid second off this mark at Yarmouth last week. Mumayaz, who looks the pick of the Tony Carroll-trained pair, is nominated as the main danger but Confederation also merits respect on the back of a good effort last time and recent Salisbury scorer Joy Choi has to enter calculations, too.

Provided he gets away on terms, as when leading everywhere bar the line here 19 days ago, CONFEDERATION could be tough to catch.

15:00 York Group 2 (Class 1) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Both Continuous and Castle Way are on the upgrade and bring significant potential to the contest, with the former possibly the stronger of the pair given his troubled passage at Ascot last time. However, it is very hard to get away from the claims of the unbeaten GREGORY, who has improved with each start and looks to have future Group 1 potential. He impressed when landing the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot and can take this on route to bigger targets later in the year.

The Gosden/Dettori combination have tasted notable success in this contest in recent years and the unbeaten GREGORY looks to hold serious claims of enhancing that record further before heading to Doncaster for a tilt at the St Leger next month. The main danger is likely to come from Castle Way, who has taken his form up a notch and also arrives chasing an impressive 4-timer, with Continuous taken to fill out third spot.

With Gregory down in trip and giving 3lb, it's CONTINUOUS who gets the vote. Castle Way is the other big player.

15:15 Carlisle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Both her debut at Kempton and her last run at Ripon suggest that ELUSIVE ANGEL may have been let in lightly on handicap debut off an opening mark of 73, and she can gain the first win of her career today. However, there are a whole host of potential dangers, possibly headed by Creative Style, who will be a player if the first-time blinkers do the trick from a low draw. B Associates and Happier are both likely to be involved in the finish if bouncing back to their form from earlier in the season.

ELUSIVE ANGEL has created a positive impression on two of her three starts to date and is likely to take another step forward now handicapping, so she's preferred to Mersea and Happier, who are both liable to bounce back returning to a sounder surface.

Handicap debutante ELUSIVE ANGEL is open to more progress and looks to have been given a lenient opening mark here

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

There were plenty of positives to be gleaned from SALVUCCIO's debut fifth at Nottingham earlier in the month and any improvement for that opening bid could see the Dutch Art colt gain a breakthrough success at the second time of asking. Last-time-out winner Mini Magna has progressed with each appearance and is feared most, while newcomers Belle Pearl and Invincible Speed make appeal on paper and any market support for them should be noted.

There were positives to glean from SALVUCCIO's introduction in a Class 2 Nottingham novice 13 days ago and, likely to come on for that, the son of Dutch Art is marginally preferred to Mini Magna, who opened his account in a maiden here recently and Rose Dawes' claim negates the penalty he incurred. Newcomers Invincible Speed, Belle Pearl and Ziggy's Missile (in order of preference) all need a second look in the betting.

George Boughey's SALVUCCIO ran even better than it looked on paper first time out and ought to appreciate the drop to 5f.

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

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

A small but select field for this prestigious Group 1, where PADDINGTON should take all the beating. Aidan O'Brien last won this with the three-year-old Japan in 2019, and the son of Siyouni has gone from strength to strength this season, especially since scoring in the Irish 2,000 Guineas. He proved his worth over middle distances when taking the Eclipse last month and a fifth straight Group 1 could well be in the offing. An impressive winner of the Prince of Wales's Stakes at Royal Ascot, Mostahdaf looks to be hitting his peak as a five-year-old, but the 7lb he concedes to the selection will be no easy task. Falmouth winner Nashwa adds further intrigue as she looks to improve upon a creditable effort in the Nassau Stakes at Glorious Goodwood.

Just 4 runners for one of the great races in the British Flat calendar and a good chance for PADDINGTON to emulate the mighty Giant's Causeway, who won this in 2000 after victory in the St James's Palace, Eclipse and Sussex Stakes. There are plenty of similarities between the two, with Paddington thriving on his racing at the top level, and a fifth successive Group 1 looks his for the taking. Mostahdaf was impressive in the Prince of Wales and is the clear danger under Dettori.

Mostahdaf is strongly respected but admirable PADDINGTON just keeps on winning and is taken to complete a Group 1 five-timer.

BACK TOMORROW shaped with significant promise when chasing home a short-priced favourite on her debut a fortnight ago. Her finishing effort would suggest she ought to appreciate the stiff finish here, and natural progression can see Richard Spencer's filly strike at the second time of asking. Sidney's Son sets the standard with an official rating of 70 and he is likely to be in the thick of things, while No More Heroes appeals most of the remainder.

BACK TOMORROW shaped nicely amidst greenness when runner-up at Bath a fortnight ago and, with the potential for better, she's preferred to Sidney's Son, who is closely matched on form but more exposed. Market support for newcomer Rose'aid would look significant.

Richard Spencer's Rajasinghe filly BACK TOMORROW shaped well when a debut Bath second this month and can go one better.

15:55 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow

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

Blue Hero arrives in fine fettle having won four of his last five appearances and it would be foolish to rule the five-year-old out in his current mood. However, the 1m6f distance might be on the limit of the gelding's stamina and it may be worth taking him on with MILITRY DECORATION. The son of Epaulette has been performing with credit in defeat of late and the combination of a drop in class and the booking of a useful 7lb apprentice may prove just the tonic. Lusaka completes the shortlist.

NELLIE MOON responded well to the first-time cheekpieces (retained) when a closing third on her latest start at Salisbury where she encountered traffic problems at a crucial stage. On that evidence, she is now ready to capitalise on the handicapper's mercy and can underline that point by emerging on top here. Militry Decoration wasn't beaten far in a Class 4 Sandown handicap last time and he is feared most ahead of seven-time course winner Blue Hero, who is bidding for the hat-trick.

A chance is taken that AL SAYAH can strike first time out for Neil Mulholland, with her stamina yet to come sufficiently into play.

It was a career-best performance from the progressive ROBERT JOHNSON when filling the runner-up spot at Glorious Goodwood 19 days ago. Philip Kirby's gelding has rocketed up the handicap ranks this season, rising a total of 28lb since finishing down the field at Newcastle in February. He gets the nod today, with Tronador billed as his most likely danger. Others to note include Grappa Nonino, Aztec Empire and Forza Orta.

ROBERT JOHNSON has thrived having rejoined the Philip Kirby yard this year, winning 5 times with his latest success at this C&D in July, and he can add to his tally after he showed improved form in defeat at Goodwood earlier in the month. Heading the list of dangers is Haliphon, who can make his presence felt from below his last winning mark, while Aztec Empire can also go well again.

Robert Johnson is not passed over lightly but Irish challenger GRAPPA NONINO (nap) can raise his game again to defy a penalty.

Although REDARNA has not been at his best in recent starts, he is now 5lb lower than for last year's Thirsk Hunt Cup success and the drop into a class 4 contest is an added positive. Dianne Sayer's nine-year-old is preferred to Quest For Fun, who finished a creditable fourth in a competitive Racing League heat last time out. C&D winner Poet's Magic is another to enter calculations, along with Yoshimi, who seeks a third success from his last four starts.

MOBASHR had excuses at Windsor last week and can show he's still very much at the top of his game. Quest For Fun and John Quinn pair Poet's Magic and Red Mirage may give the selection most to do.

Mick Appleby's MOBASHR is having a good summer and can bounce back in style having not enjoyed the rub of the green at Windsor.

CIOTOG (second) aims to reverse the placings with Eye Of The Water from earlier in the week, but he could do so with a 7lb swing in the weights thanks to the booking of 3lb claimer and the winner's 4lb penalty today. Therefore, the son of Dandy Man could be set to go one better than each of his last two outings. My Ambition has struck twice over C&D this year and he has to be respected.

CIOTOG deserves to get his head in front and is taken to do just that following his recent C&D near miss. He was just touched off by Eye of The Water on that occasion but is now 4 lb better off with that rival, before the claim of star apprentice Billy Loughnane is taken into consideration. Mr Trick put in good late work when fourth at Sandown last time and is second choice ahead of Chifa and My Ambition. The down-in-class Ardbraccan also needs a second look.

Denis Coakley's MY AMBITION (nap) returns to Class 6 level after running better than ever at Windsor and we know he goes well here.

A really competitive renewal and chances can be given to several runners. Pinafore has obvious claims having won so easily last time and with a strong pace over this shorter trip likely to suit. Thunder Star, Cruise and Lady Hamana all bring strong form to the table and have to be respected. However, with her promising run at Goodwood so fresh in the memory, this could go to DESIGNER, who likes it here and may get the race set up perfectly to strike late in the piece.

PINAFORE was untroubled in resuming winning ways in first-time cheekpieces at Nottingham last week and sets a clear standard under a penalty. Last year's winner Designer has a high draw to contend with but caught the eye at Goodwood and is taken to be in the mix again, whilst Pillow Talk, a listed winner here as a juvenile, produced her best effort at Pontefract last month and also merits respect.

Back down in class and remaining unexposed over 5f, MARINE WAVE looks particularly interesting. Pillow Talk is second choice.

In a race lacking depth, it might pay to side with the in-form FORTUITOUS STAR. Grant Tuer's charge has been knocking on the door in recent starts and she went desperately close at Redcar 11 days ago. A similar display could be enough to see the daughter of Starspangledbanner strike at the 12th time of asking, although Mister Sox can provide a stern challenge. The Caltonian completes the shortlist.

MISTER SOX has been shaping up quite well since the blinkers have gone on and is taken to come good back over shorter. The reliable Fortuitous Star is second choice ahead of The Caltonian.

Grant Tuer's consistent FORTUITOUS STAR (nap) arrives on the back of an excellent Redcar second and can gain a deserved breakthrough win

SURREY CHARM shaped as though a step up to this distance could bring about even more improvement when she took it up inside the final furlong to win going away over 1m2f at Chepstow on her handicap/stable debut last month, and she could prove very tough to stop off a 5lb higher rating. Recent C&D victor Lhebayeb looks the main threat despite a 3lb rise for that success, while Starfighter completes the shortlist after his Nottingham third.

There may well be more to come from SURREY CHARM, who left her low-key 2-y-o efforts for George Baker well behind when making a winning handicap debut for her new yard at Chepstow last month. That wasn't a particularly strong race but she did the job well, especially considering that she was returning from an 11-month absence, and this stiffer test promises to suit. Starfighter is taken to follow the selection home, with recent C&D scorer Lhebayeb best of the rest.

Surrey Charm is unexposed but STARFIGHTER returns to his best trip after a pleasing return at Nottingham last week.

VADSA QUEEN showed promise in bumpers last year and reappeared after a 12-month absence to score in good style at Tramore in June. She's since run on the Flat at the Galway Festival and is an interesting recruit to hurdling. The Grey Dove filled the runner-up spot behind the selection's stablemate Arctic Fly at Punchestown a couple of months ago, while Angelsworknovrtime also has placed form in maiden hurdles and wasn't disgraced here in a handicap last time. Young Lucy won a Cork bumper this spring and also has some experience over hurdles, while Tina Meehan and the well-bred I Am Shadow have also been successful in bumpers. The latter won here just under a fortnight ago.

Those with previous experience hurdling don't set a tall standard to aim at, so bumper winner VADSA QUEEN gets the vote to make a winning start in this sphere at the expense of Tina Meehan, who was previously trained by Champion trainer Willie Mullins and can easily have a line put through her hurdling debut effort. The Grey Dove and I Am Shadow are another couple to consider.

The well-related VADSA QUEEN won a bumper readily before finding 1m4f inadequate at Galway. She should be too good for these rivals

STARLUST has done nothing but improve in four starts to date and ran a blinder to finish second on his handicap debut at Glorious Goodwood, despite racing with the choke out early on. A 3lb rise for that effort is fair and, with Ryan Moore taking over the reins, he should go close. Jungle Mate could very easily be three wins from three now, after backing up a debut win with two narrow defeats, and he demands respect. Blue Prince and Bobsleigh are other names to note.

STARLUST has a solid profile and arrives on the back of an improved showing when second in a strong 6f nursery at Goodwood, so he gets the vote in what looks another warm race. Recent C&D winner Blue Prince is an obvious danger and Zoulu Chief has to be respected after his Windsor romp.

The Richard Fahey-trained BLUE PRINCE impressed when powering clear over C&D on last month's nursery debut and gets the nod.

DOUBLETALK got off the mark in good fashion at Beverley last week and she could be tough to catch around here with conditions ideal under her penalty. Beaten just three-quarters of a length in second that day, Whatwouldiknow has strong claims to get closer to the selection with a decent pull at the weights and is the obvious danger. There should be more to come from Salsa Dancer and Brooklyn Express, both of whom are worth monitoring in the market.

Doubletalk and WHATWOULDIKNOW pulled clear of the remainder at Beverley last Thursday and Nigel Tinkler's gelding is fancied to turn the tables with that rival (winner carries a penalty and the selection has a handy 7-lb claimer on board for the first time). Forever A Diamond and Diddy Man met over C&D 10 days ago and they can fight out minor honours.

An open race in which the vote goes to FOREVER A DIAMOND, who chased home a major improver in a C&D nursery ten days ago.

SHAZAM didn't quite see out the trip when run down late over further at Newmarket, but dropping back to his optimum distance now is a major plus. The three-year-old can make it three wins in her last four starts, with the consistent, yet winless, Calypso and Nottingham scorer Damascus Steel looking best placed to chase her home. Eddie Temple and Wild Hurricane cannot be ruled out either.

Moving up in trip here should suit CALYPSO, who was going on at the finish when a close third over a mile at Nottingham last month and, now 1 lb lower and equipped with first-time cheekpieces, he is taken to open his account at the eighth attempt. Wonder Starelzaam has acquitted himself well in higher-grade handicaps at Newbury and Windsor the last twice and is feared most ahead of Eddie Temple, Damascus Steel and Shazam.

A well-contested finale. SHAZAM still appears to be improving having seemingly got outstayed over further at Newmarket.

REDWOOD QUEEN won at Cartmel for Noel Kelly last summer and caught the eye of the stewards on her first start for Charles Byrnes at Punchestown in May. She disappointed on her only subsequent outing on softer ground at Roscommon and has been taken out a number of times recently due to the going. She looks well treated if the getting a sound surface. Makfils hails from a yard in good form and should progress from a run at Bellewstown last month, while Rockview Roman gave encouragement when runner-up here recently. Listentillitellyea was a frustrating sort to follow last year finishing second four times and again filled the runner-up spot behind the progressive Presenting Lad at Ballinrobe last week.

REDWOOD QUEEN has shaped better than the result on both starts for her current yard and, if strong in the betting back from a break, she's the one to side with. In-form pair Listentillitellyea and Rockview Roman also make plenty of appeal.

Though getting on in years BENEFIT RUN may be able to pick up another win. Listenttillitellyea is a likely danger.

This looks a tough one to call, so a tentative vote goes to EVENSTAR, who makes her handicap bow after finishing down the field on her return to action at Ripon, a track that didn't seem to favour her. The daughter of Havana Grey could be let in leniently off a mark of 68 based on her debut run at Southwell. Abbey's Dream filled the runner-up spot at Salisbury last time and she could get involved off the same rating. Surrey Noir is another to note in first-time cheekpieces.

Having made a successful handicap debut at Chelmsford in July, OKAMI had excuses at this C&D on his latest outing (left poorly placed) and he can get back on the up to resume winning ways. Abbey's Dream ran well on her turf debut a week ago and can give another good account back on all-weather, with Surrey Noir completing the shortlist.

Narrow preference is for SURREY NOIR who really should have a win under his belt but looks just the type to benefit from being gelded.

Slight preference is for HIGH POINT, who is likely to need a bit further in time, but his debut effort when a close third at Epsom suggests he should be able to win at this trip and he can get off the mark at the second attempt.

HIGH POINT produced a promising first effort when finishing a close-up third in an Epsom novice 3 weeks ago and with progress anticipated, he shades the vote to build on that and make it second time lucky. Mr Monaco and Al Shabab can provide the chief threats.

Preference is for HIGH POINT, who went close at Epsom on his recent debut and sets a clear standard on that clear third.

Gordon Elliott saddled six winners at Tramore last week and may add to his tally here ARABIAN DIAMOND who filled the runner-up spot twice in bumpers before scoring here in runaway fashion. The Getaway gelding switched to hurdles last time at the Galway Festival when a creditable fourth behind the odds-on High Class Hero. The latter's stablemate Rule The Wind is a threat on his second to Castle Field Boy at Tipperary this spring but hasn't really progressed since. Oliver McKiernan has shown some signs of a revival recently after a quiet spell and it will be interesting to see if there is any support for Musta Lovea Lovea, absent since narrowly denied at Fairyhouse on New Year's Day.

It's worth giving another chance to RULE THE WIND, who has so far failed to build on the promise of his hurdles debut second at Tipperary in April but time is still on his side and he couldn't be in better hands. Bumper winner Arabian Diamond shaped well on his first run in this sphere at Galway and is likely to emerge as the main danger. That said, Musta Lovea Lovea was just touched off in a Fairyhouse handicap when last seen in January and will also be a threat if fully tuned-up.

The vote goes to ARABIAN DIAMOND (nap), a runaway bumper winner here last month before a satisfactory hurdles run at Galway

ALJEZUR has produced two promising efforts so far in his young career, with the latest of them coming at Ascot when getting up for fourth late on, suggesting he is ready for a step up in trip. Therefore, with plenty of improvement to come, he could be the one to beat. Musical Act was sent off favourite for his debut at Doncaster, so his run looked too bad to be true and he can be given another chance. Any market support for 32,000gns purchase Dunstan should be noted.

ALJEZUR showed plenty when hitting the frame in a 6f Newbury novice/Ascot maiden and is preferred to Commander of Life, who shoulders a 7 lb penalty for his win at Chelmsford. Swift Victory is another to consider having left his debut run well behind when third over this C&D 2 weeks ago.

Chelmsford winner COMMANDER OF LIFE could well defy a 7lb penalty granted further progress. Swift Victory is second choice.

Game Breaker is sure to be popular after her opening win at Thirsk last time but that came on soft ground which seemed to suit her well. Back on a sound surface and up 8lb in the ratings, she has questions to answer. Slight preference is for TIERNEY, who won really well two starts back but didn't seem to appreciate the softer surface at Newmarket last time. With firmer conditions on offer this evening, she can resume her progression to get back in the winner's enclosure. Handicap newcomers Heritage House and Invincible Tiger have the potential to do better and both require market checks.

GAME BREAKER showed improved form to make her first start in nurseries a winning one at Thirsk 26 days ago. A well-bred filly from an excellent yard, she ought to have more to offer still and gets the nod to follow up. The return to quicker ground rates a plus for Tierney who could bounce back, whilst nursery debutante Invincible Tiger is another worth a second look.

Top of the list is GAME BREAKER (nap), who justified favouritism on her nursery debut at Thirsk last month and is open to more progress

GENDARME won twice over two miles on a sound surface back in 2021 but has been lightly raced and generally disappointing since on soft ground until making eye-catching late headway when unfancied at Limerick last month. It will be fascinating to see how strong he is in the market here. The Grey Monty was second over C&D 12 months ago and was again prominent throughout after a lengthy lay-off when headed in the closing stages by Fruit Blossom (won again since) at Downpatrick. Dragon's Pass has gained both previous wins at around this trip and has kept her form well since scoring at Fairyhouse in January.

GENDARME is given a chance to build on his eyecatching reappearance fourth at Limerick, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. John McConnell's recent Downpatrick runner-up The Grey Monty is second choice ahead of the consistent Dragon's Pass.

Twice successful two summers ago, GENDARME has dropped to a tempting mark again and indicated a possible revival last time.

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

QIRAT showed plenty of promise on his debut at Newmarket and, with normal improvement expected, he could prove tough to beat. The main threat might be Clear Image, who ran a respectable fourth on debut at Leicester and he can take a step forward. Spun To Gold is closely related to Tapestry and he would be of interest if the betting market speaks in his favour.

QIRAT's lack of experience arguably prevented him from making a winning debut at Newmarket and he can make amends with this extra furlong likely to suit. Clear Image showed plenty to work on despite being easy to back at Leicester, so is next best ahead of well-bred newcomer Spun To Gold.

As regards the runners with experience, QIRAT is the pick. Well-bred newcomer Spun To Gold is respected.

ALICE KNYVET posted her best effort to date when a staying-on second at Bath last month and a similar level of performance off only 1lb higher in the ratings could be good enough here. Matty Too was recently thwarted in his hat-trick bid when denied by a neck in third at Brighton and may unlock some potential now upped in trip to a mile. Golden Sands races off a career-high mark but is dangerous to discount if gaining an uncontested lead.

MATTY TOO has improved again for the application of a visor, landing back-to-back handicaps at Yarmouth/Chepstow prior to a good third at Brighton 2 weeks ago, noted finishing well. He gets the narrow vote to come out on top operating from the same mark, with Alice Knyvet and Golden Sands heading up the dangers. Whitefeathersfall is also worth keeping an eye on.

With slight question marks over plenty of his rivals, a chance is taken on TUSCAN. Second choice is Alice Knyvet.

MOONOVERCLOON returned in good form this summer, finishing well to score over 2m1f at Downpatrick and placed on both outings since including a close fourth over 2m6f at the Galway Festival. Cottie has a similar recent profile having made all at Downpatrick and only weakened in the closing stages at Galway. Arctic Ambition went up a total of 17lb for two hurdle wins in the space of four days in May and has been placed on both outings since over fences. He remains on a reasonable hurdle mark compared with his chase rating. Dancing Jeremy is another to consider while Must Meet Cecil won a claiming hurdle here last time.

ARCTIC AMBITION ran another solid race when third behind a well-handicapped pair over fences at Kilbeggan 11 days ago and, operating from his reduced hurdles mark, he could be the way to go with his record for Gordon Elliott team a solid one. Moonovercloon and Dancing Jeremy head up the dangers.

Now that he is switched back to hurdling after a couple of runs over fences ARCTIC AMBITION may pick up the winning thread again.

NAQEEB drew well clear with a useful sort at Newmarket last month and a similar level of performance on his Polytrack debut should suffice. Atlantis Blue found only a subsequent winner too strong in a handicap at Bath in April and she is the obvious threat here. Buganvillea and Larkhill are both entitled to build on their respective opening bids and can battle it out for third.

A very thin novice and an excellent opportunity for the progressive NAQEEB. Atlantis Blue is the only realistic threat.

Atlantis Blue showed pretty useful form on her return. Preference is for NAQEEB who rallied when beaten a nose over 1m4f last time.

Selenachorus is sure to prove popular after completing a quick-fire double over C&D at the start of August, with a 5lb rise looking workable. However, fellow last-time-out winner MILDYJAMA found improvement on the rise to 1m3f at Kempton last Monday and could unlock enough potential over the extra furlong to defy a 6lb penalty. My Chiquita returns to the scene of her last success and rounds off the shortlist.

SELENACHORUS will take plenty of beating in her bid to complete a C&D hat-trick, a 5 lb rise for her most recent victory almost certainly underestimating her superiority. Mildyjama is also proving progressive and appeals as by far the most pertinent threat under a penalty.

1m2f/1m3f winner Mildyjama is slightly preferred to dual C&D winner Selenachorus. Both might be upstaged by MOVIE STAR LOOKS.

TUFF DAYS won a point-to-point in May and has been a model of consistency since in staying handicap hurdles. He's been second twice over this trip at Kilbeggan and was hampered on the run-in at Downpatrick last time. Menindee and Dinoland were only separated by half-a-length when fighting out the finish over C&D last month. The David Christie-trained mare successfully switched to fences at Kilbeggan last time and again looks sure to give a good account with stamina at a premium. The well-bred Appian Way won twice for Charles O'Brien last autumn and wasn't beaten too far at Roscommon earlier this month.

DINOLAND arrives a maiden following 9 starts but ran his best race yet when runner-up at Perth 3 weeks ago and he looks to hold sound claims of going one place better stepping back up in trip. Menindee and Tuff Days head up the dangers, whilst Old Chap is another worth keeping an eye on with a reappearance run under his belt.

Fresh from a Kilbeggan chase win, MENINDEE is in the form of her life and is taken to confirm last month's C&D defeat of Dinoland

ADELA OF CHAMPAGNE relished the drop in trip when making all in taking fashion over C&D in June and a 6lb rise in the ratings may not be enough to prevent the Kingman filly from completing the double. Rajindri shaped better than the finishing position suggests on her handicap debut at Goodwood in early August and this ease in class gives her a definite chance. Razeyna races off her latest winning mark and first-time blinkers bring William Haggas' charge into calculations.

RAZEYNA has testing ground as a possible excuse for her recent Thirsk run and is taken to bounce back in first-time blinkers. There could be more to come from last-time-out C&D scorer Adela of Champagne so she's second choice. Rajindri is a low-mileage sort who wasn't seen to best effect on her Glorious Goodwood handicap debut and she completes the shortlist.

The penny seems to have dropped with ADELA OF CHAMPAGNE (nap), who is bred to be decent and it was never in doubt over C&D last time.

Wide-margin winner STAR START escapes a penalty having won an apprentice handicap at Doncaster on Saturday and is hard to oppose on the quick turnaround. Metric offered more to work with when staying on into third on her handicap debut at Lingfield earlier in the month and may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Corporate Raider. The three-year-old often runs to his best ability in small-field affairs and is only 3lb higher than his last triumph in June.

STAR START gained a second win of the season with a comfortable success at Doncaster 4 days ago and he can follow up racing off the same mark. The biggest threat could be Metric, who remains capable of better as she goes further in trip, while Corporate Raider can give another good account.

Metric could go well but STAR START escapes a penalty for Saturday's easy win in an apprentice handicap at Doncaster.

HYPERSONIC MISSILE won an English point-to-point this spring and made a creditable debut under Rules when fifth to My Great Mate at the Galway Festival. The John McConnell-trained gelding will benefit from that experience and should have less on his plate here. A Penny A Hundred is an obvious threat. The daughter of Jukebox Jury is a half-sister to successful staying hurdler Dragon Rock and closely related to progressive chaser Whistleinthedark. Yournotthebossame is another newcomer from a powerful yard while Mount Frisco, third in a maiden hurdle here last month, and Thunder Rose both have interesting jockey bookings.

Not hard to be immediately drawn to A PENNY A HUNDRED and Yourenotthebossame before market clues, both representing top yards who mop up these races, and they make most appeal. Hypersonic Missile made a promising start at Galway and could figure up in trip.

Newcomers could dominate here with A PENNY HUNDRED preferred to Yourenotthebossame

This can go the way of TWO TEMPTING, whose two career wins have come over C&D including on his penultimate start last month. The four-year-old has been in fine form of late and he gets the vote ahead of the likes of handicap debutant Endless Power and Owl Island, who could easily improve for the rise in distance. Florida and Starshiba are other key players.

FLORIDA created a good impression when winning here in December and proved too keen stepping into handicaps for the first time at Haydock. His mark remains fair if able to build on his previous promise now gelded, so he's given another chance. Endless Power overcame unfavourable circumstances when winning at Chelmsford and can pose the biggest threat on his handicap bow, whilst Two Tempting and Starshiba are others with leading claims.

In the hope that a gelding operation will have ironed out his flaws, FLORIDA is taken to add to his good novice win here.

Slight preference is for DOVES OF PEACE, who had shown little before a career-best when runner-up at Lingfield on his handicap bow in March. Given a 145-day break since, the son of Camacho should be fresh and ready to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. Just over two lengths separated Flying Panther (first) and Angel Of Antrim (third) when they met at Lingfield last month and both are likely to be thereabouts again. Others to note include Calleveryoneuknow, Daisy Roots and Scramble.

DOVES OF PEACE rather stands out as an unexposed sort in this line-up and is taken to make light of a 5-month break for the Michael Bell team. Daisy Roots arrives on the back of a win and placed effort in classified events in recent weeks and is second choice ahead of Tom Ward's Flying Panther.

An honest pace can see CALLEVERYONEUKNOW settle better than at Windsor last time and come home in front.

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

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

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool.

Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

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

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

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