---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (8) (5/1 -25%) Magical Trail |
5/1(-25%) | (8) Magical Trail 5/1, Foaled April 23. Blue Point filly. Closely related to useful 1m/9f winner Romantic Rival. Should be tuned up for this and is worth a chance to make a winning start. Enough to like on breeding and respected on debut; stable has a good record in this race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (9/1 -125%) Jowddah |
9/1(-125%) | (6) Jowddah 9/1, Foaled March 19. 210,000 gns yearling, New Bay filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 1m-1¼m winner Royal Mews and 8.3f-1¼m winner King of Clubs, both useful. Worthy of interest. Nicely bred and stable gets plenty of 2yo winners first time out; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (100/1 -525%) Pink Diesel |
100/1(-525%) | (10) Pink Diesel 100/1, Foaled April 9. €22,000 foal, €31,000 yearling, Showcasing filly. Half-sister to 2 winners, including 17f winner Spiced Rum. Dam, French 2-y-o 1¼m winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 9f Musetta. Worth a market check. Apprentice-ridden on debut which suggests yard may have stronger candidates elsewhere. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (25/1 -213%) Chiringita |
25/1(-213%) | (4) Chiringita 25/1, Foaled February 21. American Pharoah filly. Dam, smart winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 1m winner), half-sister to smart 1m-10.2f winner Phantom Flight. Interesting pedigree, albeit she'll probably want further. Appealing pedigree and stable does have winning 2yo newcomers; watch market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (100/1 -2122%) Kathleen's Glory |
100/1(-2122%) | (7) Kathleen's Glory 100/1, Foaled January 21. €32,000 foal, 50,000 gns yearling, Ten Sovereigns filly. Half-sister to 7f-1m winner Optiva Star and winner in US by Declaration of War. Wears hood. Notabel newcomer. Worth considering for top yard that has plenty of 2yos go in first time; hood on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (80/1 -2186%) Beronia |
80/1(-2186%) | (1) Beronia 80/1, Fair form on each of her three runs to date, again shaping like a step up to this trip would suit when third in a novice here 56 days ago. Has the experience edge and should be involved in the finish. Placed in all three starts over 6f; should appreciate 7f; sets a fair standard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (80/1 -1678%) Bintjeddah |
80/1(-1678%) | (2) Bintjeddah 80/1, Foaled March 14. 220,000 gns yearling, Too Darn Hot filly. Half-sister to useful French 2-y-o 7f/7.5f winner Paz. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 9f-1¾m winner Lion Sands and Lancashire Oaks winner Pongee. One to consider. Stable has had three winning 2yo newcomers this month; market confidence significant. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (80/1 -21%) Borderline Madness |
80/1(-21%) | (3) Borderline Madness 80/1, Foaled May 8. Territories filly. Dam twice-raced half-sister to useful multiple 5f winner Spoof. Not an obvious sort on paper. Bred more for speed and stable wouldn't be a noted source of winning 2yo newcomers. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Beronia has placed on all three appearances over 6f to date and this 7f trip looks likely to suit. George Boughey's filly is a big player, but there are some intriguing newcomers on show, with the well-bred MAGICAL TRAIL making most appeal. The daughter of Blue Point is a half-sister to the Group 3-placed Romantic Rival and she's likely to know her job. Fellow debutants Bintjeddah and Jowddah must also be watched in the market.
MAGICAL TRAIL should be sufficiently well forward to do herself justice first time out and, without the benefit of market clues, she's fancied to make a winning debut. Beronia is a clear player having put up three solid showings to date and Jowddah is another notable newcomer.
Beronia sets the standard, but there are some interesting newcomers up against her such as MAGICAL TRAIL who gets the vote.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (3) (13/2 -8%) Shadow Dance |
13/2(-8%) | (3) Shadow Dance 13/2, Made good strides in first season, including second in the very competitive Old Rowley Cup at Newmarket. Well held in the Duke of Edinburgh on his Royal Ascot reappearance but quickly back on track when second of 9 at Ripon (1½m) 4 weeks later, despite not looking at ease on the track. Respected. Ran poorly at Royal Ascot, sole start on good to firm; close 2nd at Ripon five weeks ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (10/1 -11%) Lieber Power |
10/1(-11%) | (6) Lieber Power 10/1, Has thrived since stepped up to 1½m this summer, winning here and at Chepstow. Conceded first run when narrowly denied in a Racing League handicap last week, suggesting his mark is still very workable. A must for the shortlist. Returned to 1m4f this summer for two wins and two close seconds; 4lb higher in future. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (28/1 -75%) Dark Moon Rising |
28/1(-75%) | (10) Dark Moon Rising 28/1, Back to form when winning at Hamilton (13f) in June. Also a creditable second of 5 at Ayr (13f again) 46 days ago but he didn't look straightforward under pressure. Former C&D winner. C&D win last July; lacks consistency but won this June and a good second on latest start. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (28/1 -409%) Mr Monaco |
28/1(-409%) | (9) Mr Monaco 28/1, Going the right way, making all by 4 lengths in a 3-y-o only handicap at Sandown (1¼m, good) 15 days ago. 1½m seems likely to suit him on that evidence and he's of obvious interest up against largely older and more exposed opposition. Progressive in handicaps; 1m2f Sandown win; up 7lb but shapes as if worth a go at 1m4f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (16/1 -14%) Euchen Glen |
16/1(-14%) | (4) Euchen Glen 16/1, Admirable veteran who showed he's still capable of useful form when snapping a losing run at Ayr (13f) in June. Good efforts in John Smith's Cup here and a Glorious Goodwood handicap since. 11yo; close fourth at Goodwood three weeks ago; well capable of a prominent finish. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (66/1 -633%) Grey Cuban |
66/1(-633%) | (7) Grey Cuban 66/1, Has improved for a hood, winning a pair of 1¼m Chester handicaps last month, the latter by 4½ lengths. His strength at the finish on that occasion provides hope that 1½m might be within range. 2-2 since hooded over Chester's 10.3f; new trip and races a bit too freely for comfort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (40/1 -21%) Qitaal |
40/1(-21%) | (12) Qitaal 40/1, Made a winning return at Doncaster in March and plenty of decent efforts in defeat since, including fourth of 7 in a Chepstow Racing League handicap 15 days ago. First attempt at 1½m. Has largely held his form in defeat and first attempt beyond 10.3f has to be worth a go. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (14/1 -40%) Insanity |
14/1(-40%) | (2) Insanity 14/1, Didn't cut much ice in 2 juvenile hurdles over the winter but his profile on the Flat is one of steady progression, edging ahead late on in 1½m Ascot handicap on Shergar Cup day. A 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent another prominent showing. 121 this season; won by a head from Dream Harder at Ascot; up 4lb but he's a rising force. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (100/1 -614%) Derry Lad |
100/1(-614%) | (11) Derry Lad 100/1, Dual winner (at up to 1½m) last term. Recorded good thirds in competitive handicaps at Naas and Epsom in May but well held back from a break at Galway 3 weeks ago. Last of 18 at Galway three weeks ago but he's of major interest if that can be forgiven. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (100/1 -3233%) Wafei |
100/1(-3233%) | (13) Wafei 100/1, Looked promising on debut last year and, after a couple of underwhelming efforts, got firmly back on track when readily landing a 9f Hamilton maiden in June. Built on that when second of 7 in 11f Glorious Goodwood handicap 3 weeks ago. Unexposed profile provides the hope for better again. Five races; ran on well from off the pace when second of seven at Goodwood (1m3f) latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (100/1 -203%) Law Of The Sea |
100/1(-203%) | (8) Law Of The Sea 100/1, Resumed with a creditable effort in defeat at Chester (18.5f) in May but 3 lesser efforts have followed. Remains to be seen whether this significant drop back in trip helps. 3rd on reappearance but disappointing since; has spent last two seasons over 2m+. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (80/1 -100%) Track Of Time |
80/1(-100%) | (1) Track Of Time 80/1, Three-time winner on turf/AW in France last summer. Not disgraced when midfield in pair of Meydan handicaps in January for Francis-Henri Graffard but has yet to get competitive in 3 outings for this yard, including with cheekpieces added last time. Ex-French; increasing signs of a revival and he'll click again at some stage. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
A progressive sort last season, SHADOW DANCE looked to be back on track when second at Ripon a month ago. The son of Almanzor is likely to be much better suited by going back left handed and he is narrowly preferred to the improving Wafei, and Mr Monaco, who should appreciate going up in trip after an emphatic success over 1m2f at Sandown last time out. A winner over C&D in July and consistent since, Lieber Power is another to note, along with Grey Cuban and Insanity.
MR MONACO is a progressive 3-y-o who should have more to offer now stepping up to 1½m so he's preferred to solid older rivals Lieber Power, who has been performing so well in the Racing League in recent weeks, Insanity and Shadow Dance.
Wafei may have the most potential but there are other good candidates and the two to focus on may be INSANITY and Derry Lad.

1st (1) (5/2 +0%) It's All About You |
5/2(+0%) | (1) It's All About You 5/2, Gained reward for consistency when winning 7-runner handicap at Ayr (13.1f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Longer trip no issue and looks sure to go well again. Consistent for new stable this season and deserved last month's win at Ayr; major player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (17/2 -89%) Russian Rumour |
17/2(-89%) | (4) Russian Rumour 17/2, Latest win at Nottingham in May. 16/1, creditable seventh of 12 in handicap at Bath (14f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Claims on best form. Consistent since her narrow win in May and now 1lb below that mark; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (11/1 -22%) Captain Haddock |
11/1(-22%) | (6) Captain Haddock 11/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, good) 16 days ago. Visor back on. Needs a couple of these to falter. 1 lb out of the weights. Placed at Doncaster two starts ago but this regressive 7yo has not won since summer 2021. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (15/2 +0%) Cubana Habana |
15/2(+0%) | (5) Cubana Habana 15/2, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable 8¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Eagle One in handicap (10/1) at this course (14f, soft) 17 days ago. Work to do. Below par here last time but has pretty good claims if judged on earlier form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (7/1 +50%) Diamand De Vindecy |
7/1(+50%) | (2) Diamand De Vindecy 7/1, Winner at Haydock in June. 22/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (16.2f, good to firm) 19 days ago, merely closing up late. Others preferred. Won't mind what the weather does but has very inconsistent record in Britain. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (9/4 +0%) Eagle One |
9/4(+0%) | (3) Eagle One 9/4, Back to winning ways under this pilot when taking 9-runner handicap at this course (14f, soft) 17 days ago, 4 lb rise fair and holds strong follow-up claims. 1m6f course winner under Charlie Bell this month; respected off 4lb higher mark today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (11/2 -175%) Parikarma |
11/2(-175%) | (7) Parikarma 11/2, Won over hurdles on debut for new yard and backed that up on level when creditable second of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (13f, good to firm) 21 days ago. 3 lb out of the weights here but warrants respect nonetheless. Won over hurdles on stable debut and has gone close on the Flat since; 3lb wrong. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
EAGLE ONE was comfortable at the finish when getting up over shorter here last time out, and stepping back up in trip should not inconvenience him, given he performed with credit when third over 2m at Lingfield on his penultimate outing. It's All About You, who returned to winning ways with a taking performance at Ayr last month and has run well over this distance before, can give him the most to think about. Captain Haddock and Parikarma have the form to get involved too.
EAGLE ONE was confidently ridden by his amateur pilot when scoring here earlier this month and the pair are fancied to go in again. It's All About You and Parikarma are feared most.
It might be worth chancing CUBANA HABANA, who was below form here this month but went close over C&D in June and is well handicapped.

1st (6) (17/2 +39%) The Lost King |
17/2(+39%) | (6) The Lost King 17/2, Down the field at Kempton on debut but is bred to do better and should have learned from that, so better is expected. Only ninth of 13 at Kempton but this Kingman colt should be all the wiser this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6/4 +8%) Al Misbar |
6/4(+8%) | (1) Al Misbar 6/4, Half-brother to outstanding 5f performer Battaash and was a warm order for his debut at Ascot. Didn't quite come up to expectations there but could improve markedly to open his account at the second attempt. Only 4th at Ascot but he was a warm favourite and he's in the Dewhurst. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (20/1 -43%) Law Of Design |
20/1(-43%) | (3) Law Of Design 20/1, Foaled February 11. 25,000 gns yearling, Sottsass gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 2-y-o 5f-7f winner Great Page and 6f winner Kidwah. Dam 7f winner. Makes appeal on paper. Gelded ahead of debut and stable's newcomers usually improve on their debut efforts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (5/2 +38%) Valiant Knight |
5/2(+38%) | (7) Valiant Knight 5/2, Ghaiyyath colt. Closely related to useful 5f winner Queen of Desire. Something to work on when fifth at Sandown first time out and should improve for the experience, so definite claims. Raced prominently but dropped away to be beaten 5l at Sandown (7f, good to firm; 20-1). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (80/1 -1678%) Half Moon Bay |
80/1(-1678%) | (2) Half Moon Bay 80/1, Foaled April 11. 70,000 gns yearling, New Bay gelding. Dam, 1m winner who stayed 1¼m, sister to smart winner up to 1m Akua'da. Looks the pick of the newcomers on paper. Cost 70,000gns as a yearling and is the first foal of a German Listed-placed 1m winner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (80/1 -2186%) Stenmark |
80/1(-2186%) | (5) Stenmark 80/1, 200,000 gns Kingman colt from good family and has made an encouraging start to his career, third in a novice at Doncaster a month ago. That's the best form on offer but others may have more potential. Strong form claims on his latest close third over this far at Doncaster. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (100/1 -525%) Regal Guest |
100/1(-525%) | (4) Regal Guest 100/1, Foaled February 14. 85,000 gns yearling, Kodiac colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 5f-6f winner Protest Rally and 2-y-o 6f winner Sandhoe. 85,000gns yearling and related to winners from 5f to 1m; likely best watched. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The market should prove informative for Half Moon Bay on debut and the son of New Bay certainly won't be found lacking for stamina over 7f judged on his pedigree. However, AL MISBAR should have learned plenty from his fourth-placed debut in a class 2 event at Ascot last month and he may find enough improvement to open his account. Valiant Knight and Stenmark are also noted.
AL MISBAR was a very expensive yearling with good reason, a relation to the outstanding Battaash, so he's worth a chance to build on an underwhelming debut by getting off the mark here. Valiant Knight is also open to improvement and Half Moon Bay is an interesting newcomer.
Expensive yearling STENMARK gets the nod on the strength of his form on a second visit to Doncaster. Al Misbar is next best.

1st (7) (11/2 -83%) Vauban |
11/2(-83%) | (7) Vauban 11/2, High-class hurdler and also smart on the Flat. Decent comeback when second in Yorkshire Cup before shaping as though extreme trip of Ascot Gold Cup was too much. Disappointed in Curragh Cup next time but capable of bouncing back over a C&D which should play to his strengths. Ran respectably in the Yorkshire Cup and Ascot Gold Cup before a lesser show last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (50/1 -52%) Al Nayyir |
50/1(-52%) | (1) Al Nayyir 50/1, Has developed into a smart stayer since being trained in France, his best effort coming when 2 lengths second of 15 in Dubai Gold Cup in March. However, that performance is a standout and well below that level for a different yard in Group 2 at Longchamp next time. Has since changed yards again. Smart in UAE and France, 66-1 second in the Dubai Gold Cup (2m, good) this March; new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (100/1 -2122%) Gregory |
100/1(-2122%) | (3) Gregory 100/1, Most progressive when winning first 3 starts last season, notably when making all in Queen's Vase. Excuses in Great Voltigeur/St Leger and made an encouraging return when third in Yorkshire Cup. Too bad to be true in Ascot Gold Cup and duly bounced back when third in Goodwood Cup. Big shout. Career-best form when third in the 2m Goodwood Cup late last month; effective here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (25/1 -150%) Night Sparkle |
25/1(-150%) | (8) Night Sparkle 25/1, Progressive on the Flat for Michael O'Callaghan last summer and similar form when runner-up 3 of her 4 starts this term, including in Lillie Langtry Stakes at Goodwood (14f, good to firm, 8/1) 20 days ago. Opposable back against the males, however. Fine seconds this term, two in Group races against her own sex; significantly stiffer task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (66/1 -2833%) Point Lonsdale |
66/1(-2833%) | (4) Point Lonsdale 66/1, Highly tried since winning first 2 starts last season but resumed winning ways back down in Ormonde Stakes at Chester in May. Not disgraced back at Group 1 level when third in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud since. Shapes as if he wants a marathon trip nowadays so is an interesting contender. Unraced beyond 13.3f of his impressive Chester win in May, when galloped on relentlessly. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (100/1 -733%) Quickthorn |
100/1(-733%) | (5) Quickthorn 100/1, Front runner who slipped the field when a wide-margin winner of the Goodwood Cup last summer and did the same in this race next time. However, well held since (unable to dominate) and opposable on balance. Gave them the slip in this race two years ago and 2023 Goodwood Cup; disappointing lately. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (66/1 -560%) Alsakib |
66/1(-560%) | (2) Alsakib 66/1, Developed into a smart performer in 2023, winning 4 times, including a couple of valuable handicaps, and best effort this term when winning Group 3 here (13.8f) 6 weeks ago. However, that wasn't a strong race for the grade and likely to find a few too good here. Kept finding to get on top late on in 1m6f Group 3 here six weeks ago; 2m beckons. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (66/1 -450%) Align The Stars |
66/1(-450%) | (9) Align The Stars 66/1, Sea The Stars colt who continues to improve with each run, winning handicaps at Thirsk and Haydock before completing hat-trick at Glorious Goodwood. Will stay but this is a tough ask. 2m is well worth a go but marked further progress is required on graduation from handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (100/1 -203%) Tashkhan |
100/1(-203%) | (6) Tashkhan 100/1, Smart stayer who signed off for 2023 with a solid third in the Prix Royal-Oak at Longchamp. However, well held both starts this season so has plenty to prove. Needs to put this season's two runs (good to soft latest) way behind him; best in the mud. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Aidan O'Brien looks to have a prime candidate in POINT LONSDALE, who has long shaped as though he would relish this trip. A taking winner of the Ormonde at Chester in May and a promising third in the Grand Prix de Saint-Cloud since, the son of Australia looks primed for a big run. Vauban had the reopposing Gregory (third) behind when runner-up in the Yorkshire Cup here in May, and both are likely to be thereabouts once again. A comfortable winner of a Group 3 here last month, Alsakib continues to progress and may turn out to be the main danger to the selection.
GREGORY put his Gold Cup shocker behind him when just edged out for second in the Goodwood Cup and can record his first win since making all in the Queen's Vase at Ascot as a 3-y-o. Vauban needs to shrug off a disappointing run at the Curragh but he finished in front of the selection in the Yorkshire Cup here and is an obvious threat, with Point Lonsdale another to consider with the extra distance likely to suit.
Gregory may prove best of the established stayers but ALSAKIB and Point Lonsdale are preferred on their first appearance at 2m.

1st (5) (4/5 +64%) Eternal Elixir |
4/5(+64%) | (5) Eternal Elixir 4/5, Highly promising sort who finished with running left when third of 11 in novice (10/1) at Haydock (7f, firm) on debut 14 days ago. Should be plenty more to come and he's a big player. Overcame clear inexperience when third on recent Haydock debut; good chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (13/2 +19%) Pinkarizon |
13/2(+19%) | (7) Pinkarizon 13/2, Once-raced maiden. 20/1, seventh of 8 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) on debut 30 days ago. Up in trip. Improvement required. Made reasonably encouraging debut (6f) but others here have much stronger claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (66/1 -100%) Bishopton |
66/1(-100%) | (3) Bishopton 66/1, Once-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in novice at Kempton (7f, 100/1) on debut 16 days ago. Hard to recommend. Made low-key debut when down-the-field 100-1 shot at Kempton (7f, AW) this month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (6/1 -50%) Stage Effect |
6/1(-50%) | (2) Stage Effect 6/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Haydock in May. Eighth of 12 in novice at Kempton (6f, 10/1) 44 days ago. Up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time. Each-way claims. Won soft-ground maiden in May and subsequent AW defeat is not viewed harshly. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (11/2 +0%) Gloryous |
11/2(+0%) | (10) Gloryous 11/2, Left debut form well behind when fair second of 11 in maiden (66/1) at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 8 days ago. May have more to offer yet and is one for shortlist. Much improved form when second at Salisbury last week; ought to be in the shake-up here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (15/2 -88%) Downcliffe Flyer |
15/2(-88%) | (9) Downcliffe Flyer 15/2, Foaled February 1. 58,000 gns yearling, Lightning Spear filly. Sister to 2-y-o 8.6f winner Tiptoe and half-sister to numerous winners, including very smart winner up to 1¼m Military Law. Dam 7f/1m winner 13th foal from Group 3 winner who has produced two smart ones; makes debut today. |

7th (6) (25/1 -108%) Hidden Verse |
25/1(-108%) | (6) Hidden Verse 25/1, Twice-raced maiden. 12/1, fourth of 7 in novice at Epsom (7f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Looks one for handicaps down the line. Displayed some promise on his second start but needs to improve again here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Despite a tardy start and running green throughout much of the contest, ETERNAL ELIXIR shaped with plenty of promise on debut at Haydock recently and, with normal improvement expected, he may be able to get off the mark. Gloryous outran huge odds to finish an encouraging second at Salisbury last week and she looks the main danger to the selection, ahead of newcomer Blue Tempus.
ETERNAL ELIXIR looks a sure-fire improver on the back of his recent encouraging Haydock debut and can open his account. Gloryous and Stage Effect rate the principal dangers.
After keeping on well from the rear for third on his recent Haydock debut, ETERNAL ELIXIR is open to significant improvement.

1st (4) (8/1 +50%) Sayifyouwill |
8/1(+50%) | (4) Sayifyouwill 8/1, Good effort at Salisbury in June and, while below form on both subsequent outings, she wasn't seen to best effect at Lingfield last time. Not a forlorn hope. Losing run up to 12 and she finished over 5l behind All Agleam at Lingfield last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (14/1 -180%) Star Mind |
14/1(-180%) | (6) Star Mind 14/1, Blinkered for 1st time, very good second of 11 in handicap at Haydock (7.2f, good to firm, 28/1) 13 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Dual Tapeta winner during the winter and just beaten at Haydock last time; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (4/1 +0%) Bernalda |
4/1(+0%) | (5) Bernalda 4/1, LIghtly raced filly who took a step forward when a clear second in a Redcar novice last time. Can do better still and can make her presence felt on handicap debut. Nicely bred filly who has shown ability in all three starts; may be more to come. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (16/1 -482%) All Agleam |
16/1(-482%) | (2) All Agleam 16/1, 7/1, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Had something in hand and is fancied to go in again despite the 6-lb rise. Made all at Lingfield last time; 6lb higher but dangerous if again allowed her own way. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (22/1 -300%) Twilight Jazz |
22/1(-300%) | (9) Twilight Jazz 22/1, Latest win at Beverley in July. Good second of 8 in handicap there (7.4f, good to firm, 5/2) 9 days ago. This is tougher away from that track and out of the weights. Handy sort who has proved consistent since winning at Beverley last month; frame material. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (25/1 -56%) Just Rita |
25/1(-56%) | (8) Just Rita 25/1, Ran well at Lingfield on penultimate outing but failed to back it up at Doncaster last time and others are more persuasive. 0-9 but has shown ability; needs to put a lesser effort at Doncaster last month behind her. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (14/1 -40%) Born A Rebel |
14/1(-40%) | (7) Born A Rebel 14/1, Improved to make a winning return/handicap bow at Yarmouth in April and mostly at least respectable efforts since, fifth despite a slow start at this course three weeks ago. First-time visor could bring a bit more out of her. Hasn't built on her Yarmouth win, but had possible excuses recently; visor on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (100/1 -733%) Red Maids |
100/1(-733%) | (1) Red Maids 100/1, Back-to-back winner in 2023 and has generally been in good order this year, running respectably at Newbury last time. Can't be ruled out. Won twice this time last year and has run well this summer,; vulnerable to an improver. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (66/1 -1100%) Dianara |
66/1(-1100%) | (3) Dianara 66/1, Fair form as a juvenile, opening her account at Yarmouth 10 months ago. Not seen since, however, and handicapper doesn't appear to have been all that lenient with her opening mark. Makes her handicap debut after 318 days off and the market should be revealing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A switch to turf proved just the tonic for ALL AGLEAM when making all at Lingfield last time out. The Andrew Balding-trained filly scored with something in hand that day and she looks more than capable of following up off a 6lb higher rating. Handicap debutant Dianara is interesting on her seasonal bow and the three-year-old isn't taken lightly racing off what appears a workable mark. Having returned to form in first-time blinkers when runner-up at Haydock recently, Star Mind is also worth a second look.
ALL AGLEAM got back on the up when scoring at Lingfield last time and she's fancied to improve further to defy her reassessed mark. Star Mind is an obvious danger if the blinkers work again, while Bernalda is another one with the potential for better.
This can go to BERNALDA who makes her handicap debut after having probably run into a nice newcomer at Redcar last time.

1st (6) (17/2 +58%) Cool Hoof Luke |
17/2(+58%) | (6) Cool Hoof Luke 17/2, Knew what was required when scoring on debut at Chelmsford (6f) last month and improved a chunk on that when fourth in the Coventry at Royal Ascot. Extra 1f seemed to stretch him in Vintage Stakes at Goodwood since and this test more suitable. Close fourth in the Coventry then third in the Vintage Stakes; brings useful form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (13/2 -63%) Shadow Of Light |
13/2(-63%) | (8) Shadow Of Light 13/2, Justified market confidence to make a winning debut in 11-runner maiden at Yarmouth had no problems defying a penalty in 10-runner novice at Newmarket (6f, good) 21 days ago, plenty in hand. Up in class but is a colt of considerable potential. Latest win came in a Newmarket race that threw up the 2022 Gimcrack winner (for same yard). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (100/1 -52%) Symbol Of Strength |
100/1(-52%) | (9) Symbol Of Strength 100/1, Left debut run well behind when winning 5-runner maiden at Ayr last month but needs to improve another chunk to figure at this level. Beat four rivals in Ayr maiden last month on second run; bottom of this pack on bare form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (17/2 -143%) Big Mojo |
17/2(-143%) | (2) Big Mojo 17/2, Shaped with plenty of encouragement when second in Beverley maiden and showed much-improved form fast-tracked to a Group 3 when winning 15-runner Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood (5f, firm). Still far from the finished article and extra 1f unlikely to be a problem. Strong contender. Improved sharply to win the Molecomb on second start; appears to have plenty more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (14/1 +0%) Caburn |
14/1(+0%) | (4) Caburn 14/1, Beat a trio of previous winners when making a winning start to his career over 6f at Salisbury (good to firm) and showed useful form when following up in Super Sprint at Newbury despite shaping as if the drop down to 5f wasn't ideal. Worth a shot at this level back up in trip. Super Sprint win took his record to 2-2; this is harder but he's open to further progress. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (7/1 -27%) Camille Pissarro |
7/1(-27%) | (5) Camille Pissarro 7/1, Landed odds in maiden at Navan on debut before just edged out in Group 3 at the Curragh. Better than bare result when mid-field in Coventry at Royal Ascot and resumed progress when second to subsequent Group 1 winner Babouche in Anglesey Stakes at the Curragh (6.3f, good) 33 days ago. Respected. Ballydoyle colt; 0-3 since debut win but latest effort is a strong piece of Group 3 form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (66/1 -1100%) Andesite |
66/1(-1100%) | (1) Andesite 66/1, Pinatubo colt. Half-brother to connections' Queen Mary winner Dramatised. Looked a very good prospect when making a winning debut in C&D novice in May, pulling clear with the second and recording a good time. Interesting contender. Gritty success in C&D event at the Dante festival; looks an ideal Gimcrack type; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (33/1 +34%) King's Call |
33/1(+34%) | (7) King's Call 33/1, Showed plenty of speed when making all in 6f Ayr novice on debut and much-improved form upped to pattern company when sixth of 15 in Molecomb Stakes at Goodwood, though has 3 lengths to find with Big Mojo. Seems held by Big Mojo on Molecomb running but this return to 6f may help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (100/1 -2400%) The Strikin Viking |
100/1(-2400%) | (10) The Strikin Viking 100/1, Impressive debut winner over C&D and enhanced his reputation when runner-up in Group 2 at the Curragh for Kevin Ryan. Shaped best when second in Richmond Stakes at Goodwood since and goes into this with leading claims. Won C&D maiden comfortably then half-length second in two Group 2 races; very solid claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (40/1 -100%) Billboard Star |
40/1(-100%) | (3) Billboard Star 40/1, Confirmed debut promise when winning 9-runner novice at Newmarket (July Course) and took form to another level when second in Group 2 there. Fared best of those ridden prominently when 1½ lengths fourth in Richmond Stakes at Goodwood since and not taken lightly at a track which should suit. Solid second in the July Stakes then close fourth in the Richmond; useful gelding. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Having been worn down late on at the Curragh and Goodwood on his latest starts, THE STRIKIN VIKING just about sets the standard on form, and returning to a track where he scored on debut in June is a big plus. Big Mojo arrives after a taking success in the Molecomb, but he must now prove himself over 6f. Andesite makes his long awaited return after scoring on debut over C&D in May. Runner-up to a subsequent Group 1 winner at the Curragh last month, Camille Pissarro should be thereabouts, along with the unbeaten Shadow Of Light.
THE STRIKIN VIKING has arguably shaped best in a couple of Group 2s since his impressive debut success over this C&D so remains one to keep on the right side of. Big Mojo looks another classy sprinter for connections having defied inexperience in the Molecomb and rates the main threat ahead of the exciting Shadow of Light.
The suggestion is promising colt ANDESITE, ahead of solid The Strikin Viking in an open-looking Gimcrack.

1st (5) (3/1 +40%) Diamondsinthesand |
3/1(+40%) | (5) Diamondsinthesand 3/1, One win from 34 Flat runs. 18/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Consistent this year but has modest strike-rate and is frustrating. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (8/1 +27%) Mayz |
8/1(+27%) | (8) Mayz 8/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap (3/1) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 76 days ago. Best form is on a softer surface but will need to step up on recent efforts. Slow ground will assist her but she needs to better her recent form and 1m suits her best. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (11/2 -120%) Fitz Perfectly |
11/2(-120%) | (6) Fitz Perfectly 11/2, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 9/2) 74 days ago, going off too hard. Potentially well treated on the pick of her form. 16-race maiden; drops back in trip after two underwhelming 1m runs; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (2/1 +60%) Calm Waters |
2/1(+60%) | (1) Calm Waters 2/1, Course winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win here in June. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Sandown (8f, good to firm, 10/1) 23 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Player in this company. Dual 1m winner this season; drops back in trip with new headgear tried; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (18/1 -80%) Cherry Hill |
18/1(-80%) | (7) Cherry Hill 18/1, 8/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Others have achieved more. Twice in the frame on AW this summer but struggled when back on turf last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (6/1 +33%) My Clementine |
6/1(+33%) | (4) My Clementine 6/1, Won at Chepstow in July and produced a respectable runner-up effort there next occasion before running poorly last time. Place claims if able to bounce back. Placed since last month's clearcut Chepstow win; ran poorly last week; still considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (6/1 +54%) Thunderous Love |
6/1(+54%) | (3) Thunderous Love 6/1, Winner at Salisbury in May. 11/1, seventh of 8 in handicap there (6f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Back up in trip. Has good chance on pick of form with expected soft ground likely to suit. Surprise 6f winner in May but yet to build on that performance; slow ground will help. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
A winner over 1m here in June, CALM WATERS should appreciate a return to the Welsh track, and this represents a slight drop in grade for the daughter of Make Believe. The fact she stays further should be a plus on soft ground and Rod Millman's charge gets the vote ahead of Diamondsinthesand, who has dropped 1lb below his last winning mark. Another capable sort on her day, Mayz must enter calculations too.
CALM WATERS has already scored twice this season's and Rod Millmna's filly looks the most solid option on the back of a creditable effort at Sandown last time. Thunderous Love arrives after a pair of below-par efforts but should get conditions to suit, with Diamondsinthesand taken to complete the placings.
Class-dropper CALM WATERS is taken to collect her third win of the season. My Clementine is feared most.

1st (6) (11/2 -120%) Great Chieftain |
11/2(-120%) | (6) Great Chieftain 11/2, Made it two wins in his last three runs in 14-runner handicap at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Up 6 lb but he's not taken lightly in his current mood. Won in good style at Glorious Goodwood and a 6lb rise looks fair enough; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (8/1 -33%) Promethean |
8/1(-33%) | (4) Promethean 8/1, Lightly-raced sort who posted a very good fourth of 11 in maiden at Newbury (10f, good) 98 days ago. Much respected now going into handicaps after a break. Unexposed handicap newcomer but he needs improvement back in trip after another break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 +50%) Monkey Island |
4/1(+50%) | (1) Monkey Island 4/1, Got off the mark at Newbury (7f) in May and back to that sort of form of late, third of 6 in handicap here (7f, good to firm) 20 days ago. One to consider. Fair efforts at 7f last twice but he has a bit to prove on this step back up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (9/1 -100%) Charming Whisper |
9/1(-100%) | (7) Charming Whisper 9/1, A dual 1m scorer in June and he comes here on the back of an unlucky fourth of 9 at Brighton (8f, good) 16 days ago, suffering a poor run in the last 2f. Expected to be bang there off an unchanged mark. Two wins in June and he hasn't had much luck in last two runs; dangerous. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (13/2 -86%) Gressington |
13/2(-86%) | (5) Gressington 13/2, Resumed winning ways at Beverley in July and he backed it up with a solid second of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. Won at Beverley before clear second at Musselburgh last time; respected back up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (80/1 -1043%) Royal Velvet |
80/1(-1043%) | (8) Royal Velvet 80/1, Garnered her third win of 2024 at Yarmouth in July and she recorded another solid effort when fifth of 13 at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 22 days ago. Needs considering. Held in hat-trick bid at Wolverhampton last time and she looks on a tough enough mark now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (100/1 -400%) Al Mootamarid |
100/1(-400%) | (3) Al Mootamarid 100/1, Arrives in decent nick without winning, racing alone in straight when last of 6 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 15 days ago. Can't be ruled out eased 1 lb. Has mixed record in handicaps and was last of six at Sandown latest; now drops back to 1m. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
GREAT CHIEFTAIN produced a bit of shock to score by just under a length in a warm handicap at Goodwood earlier in the month and the handicapper may have been kind to only put him up 6lb. The son of Gleneagles looks to have been found a golden opportunity to make it three wins from his last four starts. Gressington has filled the top two places the last twice, including a win at Beverley, and could land a blow, while Charming Whisper is the pick of the remainder.
None of these can be ruled out but CHARMING WHISPER is fancied to gain compensation for his unlucky Brighton fourth last time out and bag a third victory of 2024. Great Chieftain arrives at the top of his game though and seems sure to pose a big threat, while in-form trio Gressington, Al Mootamarid and Royal Velvet all command plenty of respect too.
Top of the list is GREAT CHIEFTAIN (nap), who found more progress with his stylish win at Goodwood. Gressington is feared most.

1st (1) (10/3 +39%) Bradsell |
10/3(+39%) | (1) Bradsell 10/3, Very smart performance when a taking winner of the King's Stand Stakes at the Royal meeting in 2023. Prominent in the betting when third in this next start and warmed up for this with a ready winner down in listed company on reappearance 19 days ago. Low-mileage 4-y-o should be in the mix. Impressed when dropped to 5f for Group 1 win at Royal Ascot 2023; good 3rd in this after. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (8/1 +0%) Believing |
8/1(+0%) | (11) Believing 8/1, Twice fourth in Group 1s at Royal Ascot (to Asfoora first occasion) before resuming winning ways with her sights lowered slightly at the Curragh last month. Carried a penalty so lost very little in defeat when a keeping-on third behind the big 2 at Goodwood and no reason why she won't go well. Game and tough; suffered interference when fast-finishing 3rd at Goodwood; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (14/1 +30%) Starlust |
14/1(+30%) | (8) Starlust 14/1, Three-time winner over 6f at 2 yrs and progressed into a smart sprinter this year, justifying support in fine style over C&D (listed) last month. Behind several of these in the King George Stakes at Goodwood and this no easy race to bounce back in, for all this track will be more suitable. Shaping well as a 5f sprinter, close 3rd to Big Evs in US as 2yo; excuse latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (9/1 -452%) Asfoora |
9/1(-452%) | (9) Asfoora 9/1, Very smart sprinter and multiple Group winner from Australia who, sharper for a run in the Temple, proved better than ever when winning Group 1 King Charles at Royal Ascot, with Regional, Big Evs and Believing directly behind. Emerged with lots of credit at Goodwood and now pick of the weights. Group 1 winner over 5f at Ascot; close 2nd to Big Evs under a penalty (none today) since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (22/1 +45%) Ponntos |
22/1(+45%) | (4) Ponntos 22/1, Been around a while now but this front runner is an improved performer as a 6-y-o, readily completing a hat-trick in Chantilly Group 2 in June. Took off early and was unsurprisingly brushed aside in the King George Stakes at Goodwood last time. Czech Republic sprinter; multiple wins in Europe but faded after front-running at Goodwood. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (66/1 -230%) Washington Heights |
66/1(-230%) | (6) Washington Heights 66/1, Strong-travelling sort who was well-served by front-running ride when taking the Abernant Stakes on return (from Mill Stream) and acquitted himself with plenty of credit behind that rival in the Duke of York, both 6f. Disappointing how little he found off the bridle at Ascot and now back at 5f. Group 3 winner at 6f; strong traveller who might improve for this rare run at 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (100/1 -257%) Makarova |
100/1(-257%) | (12) Makarova 100/1, Had Live In The Dream behind her when back to winning ways in listed company at Sandown (5f, soft) last month. Shaped as if still in top form (short of room at crucial stage) when 2¼ lengths third of 9 to Believing at the Curragh but no reason to think she's much better than her current level. Creditable 4th in this race last year; behind a few of today's rivals since; tough task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (100/1 -1233%) Big Evs |
100/1(-1233%) | (7) Big Evs 100/1, Ended terrific 2-y-o campaign with a Group 1 Breeders' Cup success. Landed the odds without any fuss on C&D reappearance and since gone 1-1 with Asfoora at Royal Ascot and Goodwood (just held on). Flopped in this race last year and must now concede weight to that rival this time. More than a match for most 5f sprinters; suited by sharp 5f; rare off day here last year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (100/1 -257%) Azure Blue |
100/1(-257%) | (10) Azure Blue 100/1, Very hard to knock her strike rate and she showed a willing attitude for latest success (dead-heat) on first try over 5f in listed company in June. Big career-best effort came at this track last year but a huge personal best required at this level. Very smart form for Group 2 win over 6f here in May 2023; not as good since; trip query. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (100/1 -52%) Frost At Dawn |
100/1(-52%) | (14) Frost At Dawn 100/1, Huge career best when winning 15-runner Nad Al Sheba Turf Sprint at Meydan in March. Seen to good effect that day and in nothing like the same form upped to 6f later that month. Tough task on balance of her form. Impressive winner of sole 5f start, in Group 2 at Meydan in March; lacks a recent run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (125/1 +17%) So Majestic |
125/1(+17%) | (13) So Majestic 125/1, Useful filly in Ireland but on a losing sequence of 14 and that is most unlikely to change here. Usual hood left off. Up against it on her Listed and Group 2 form this year; lots to find. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (2) (100/1 -150%) Clarendon House |
100/1(-150%) | (2) Clarendon House 100/1, Blotted his copybook in the Epsom Dash (virtually refused to race) but lot to like about his victories either side of that in hot C&D handicap and Cork listed contest. Failed to get it right at the stalls again back here and this is a tough assignment in first-time cheekpieces. Winner of big-field C&D handicap and Listed race this year; this looks a tall order. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Already established as two of the world's fastest sprinters, ASFOORA and Big Evs are honours even from their Group-race clashes at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood and stand out as they as the gear up for round three of their personal battle. The margins will surely be tight if both run up to expectations but, armed with a 6lb turnaround after a short-head defeat in the King George Stakes, Asfoora shades the narrowest of votes over her arch enemy. Regional and Believing are no back numbers and can give the 'big two' a good run for the money. Whereas City Walls winner Starlust has only raced four times over the minimum distance and could be a surprise package. 2023 hero Live In The Dream appeals for a place this time.
As is often the case at the top of the sprinting division there's plenty of collateral form to go on. Having beaten several of these at Ascot, ASFOORA emerged with bundles of credit when a short-head second to Big Evs at Goodwood and on 6 lb better terms, she's poised to reverse the form. Believing also ties nicely in with that pair, while Bradsell may actually emerge as the chief threat.
Asfoora is likely to be finishing strongly but BRADSELL can improve on last year's third in this race and gets the vote.

10/3(-11%) | (2) Drusilla 10/3, 28/1, failed to improve when sixth of 8 on handicap debut at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 25 days ago, plugging on late. Probably needs further than this. Unexposed after only four runs but was safely held on last month's handicap debut. |

17/2(-21%) | (6) Run Of Luck 17/2, Yet to show any ability in novice/maidens. Upped in trip for her handicap debut and will need to leave previous efforts behind. Showed no significant promise at triple-digit odds in three novice/maiden races. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (7/4 +46%) Make A Scene |
7/4(+46%) | (1) Make A Scene 7/4, Has been held back by attitude but again ran well when second of 5 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm, 4/1) 11 days ago, no match for winner. Hard to beat if bringing her A game. Went close at Lingfield in July and bumped into a big improver when second again recently. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/4 -80%) Kimchi |
9/4(-80%) | (5) Kimchi 9/4, Improved when fifth of 8 on handicap debut (11/2) at Salisbury (9.9f, good) just under 6 weeks ago, no room under 3f out. Every chance she will be in the shake-up. Kept on for respectable fifth on handicap debut and might build on that effort here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (15/2 -50%) Reaching The Moon |
15/2(-50%) | (3) Reaching The Moon 15/2, 250/1, again showed little when ninth of 14 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f) 3 weeks ago. Back up in trip. Tongue strap on for handicap debut. Well down the field when a big-priced outsider for three maidens; handicap debut today. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
The most appealing option is MAKE A SCENE, who comes here after running well in defeat on consecutive outings this summer.

1st (3) (1/2 +0%) Typical Woman |
1/2(+0%) | (3) Typical Woman 1/2, Resumed winning ways in some style by 17 lengths at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 7 days ago, suited by strong pace and settling better than usual. Escapes a penalty so holds leading form claims. Won by 17l at Newbury a week ago; avoids a penalty (9lb well in) and will be hard to beat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (40/1 -400%) Piecederesistance |
40/1(-400%) | (1) Piecederesistance 40/1, Ungenuine type who has drawn a blank since 2022. Good second of 20 on his York reappearance in May but below par twice since. Others appeal more. Drops into a Class 5 for the first time, but is 1-20 since arriving from France. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (50/1 -178%) Eljaytee |
50/1(-178%) | (5) Eljaytee 50/1, Scored at Brighton in May and in good nick since, sixth of 12 at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to soft) 44 days ago. One for the shortlist despite being 4 lb out of the handicap. Won at Brighton in May but he's 4lb wrong in a better race here and looks up against it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (25/1 -456%) Bruno's Gold |
25/1(-456%) | (2) Bruno's Gold 25/1, Lost his form for Brett Johnson last summer but resumed from 11 months off for his new yard with success in 11-runner handicap at Pontefract (10f, good) 16 days ago. Must enter calculations despite taking a 4 lb rise in the weights. Made a successful stable debut after almost a year off last time; respected up 4lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (50/1 -525%) Sunset In Paris |
50/1(-525%) | (4) Sunset In Paris 50/1, Bagged his third win this year in 10-runner minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW) 31 days ago, always holding on. Much respected back in handicap company. All four wins have come on the AW and 0-10 on turf (including hurdles); needs to find more. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
TYPICAL WOMAN won by no less than 17 lengths in an apprentice handicap at Newbury last week and she gets to compete off the same rating. Considering the manner of that victory, she is very difficult to oppose. Bruno's Gold made a perfect start for the Peter Niven stable when scoring at Pontefract last time and is noted, while Sunset In Paris rates best of the rest.
TYPICAL WOMAN spreadeagled her field at Newbury last time and is hard to oppose having escaped a penalty for that apprentice handicap success here. Pontefract winner Bruno's Gold can chase home Ian Williams' improver ahead of Eljaytee.
This should go to TYPICAL WOMAN who avoids a penalty for her 17l romp in a Newbury apprentice event a week ago.

1st (9) (25/1 +24%) Canoodled |
25/1(+24%) | (9) Canoodled 25/1, Turned in her best effort of the season from a slipping mark when fifth of 11 in handicap at Ascot (8f, good, 9/1) 41 days ago. However, new trip asks a question and she's not one to be going overboard about anyway given her regular issues at the start. Kept on well for 2l fifth over 1m at Ascot and worth a go at this new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (20/1 -11%) Bint Al Daar |
20/1(-11%) | (8) Bint Al Daar 20/1, Resumed winning ways in 12-runner handicap (10/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 22 days ago, albeit seen to advantage with prominent tactics again adopted. 4 lb rise fair but looks vulnerable in a deeper race. Two wins this summer either side of her fine second over C&D; clearly thriving. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (13/2 -18%) Al Anoud |
13/2(-18%) | (3) Al Anoud 13/2, Successful both starts at 3yrs and resumed her progress when opening her account for the season in likeable fashion back down in trip at Goodwood (9.9f) 23 days ago, albeit aided by a good position. Much respected from only 2 lb higher. Won in blanket finish at Glorious Goodwood; up just 2lb but could still have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (33/1 +18%) Zenjabeela |
33/1(+18%) | (13) Zenjabeela 33/1, Dual winner last summer but has largely been disappointing this season despite faring better at Redcar last time and others make more appeal. Back to form with close 3rd of five at Redcar; goes up in trip; others are more compelling. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (40/1 -233%) Sound Angela |
40/1(-233%) | (1) Sound Angela 40/1, Useful mare who was placed 5 times at listed level last season but doesn't look especially well treated on this return to handicap company after 8 months off. Placed in Listed races on final three runs last year; absent since but goes well fresh. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (40/1 +0%) Mysterious Love |
40/1(+0%) | (7) Mysterious Love 40/1, Useful maiden winner who shaped as if amiss when last of 11 in handicap at Newbury (13.3f, good to firm) 35 days ago, eased over 1f out. Back down in trip and best efforts have tended to come on softer ground. Has dropped down the weights but she has a modest strike-rate; fast ground is a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (20/1 -25%) Ambiente Amigo |
20/1(-25%) | (5) Ambiente Amigo 20/1, Won maiden/novice events on turf and AW for Michael Bell at 2 yrs and has acquitted herself well in a pair of Newmarket listed events on her last 2 outings but her mark has suffered as a result. Improved form in Listed races the last twice but not obviously well treated back in h'cap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (16) (50/1 -456%) Chorus |
50/1(-456%) | (16) Chorus 50/1, Made the most of a good opportunity to get off the mark in 8-runner novice at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 25 days ago, comfortably. Into handicaps now and more required. Off mark at fifth attempt at Windsor; makes h'cap debut; well bred and with a leading yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (40/1 -264%) Shemozzle |
40/1(-264%) | (14) Shemozzle 40/1, Won sole start last season and got back on the up when landing 7-runner handicap at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 10 days ago, dictating but still quite impressive. Carries a 6-lb penalty in a deeper race now but could have more to come. Easily made all at Lingfield last Tuesday; unexposed & could be well treated under penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (50/1 -257%) Invisible Friend |
50/1(-257%) | (10) Invisible Friend 50/1, Resumed progress in no uncertain terms after 9 months off when winning 16-runner handicap over C&D (good to soft, 18/1) in June, suited by strongly-run race and well on top finish. That form hasn't worked out too badly, but she has to contend with a number of unexposed 3-y-os here. 2l win in big-field C&D handicap on reappearance; unexposed; could have more left in tank. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (100/1 -900%) Reach |
100/1(-900%) | (6) Reach 100/1, Strong traveller who had a bit in hand when winning this corresponding event 12 months ago and has returned better than ever, stepping up on her reappearance when an excellent third of 17 in a C&D handicap on most recent outing in June. Likely to make her presence felt again. Won this a shade cosily 12 months ago; good efforts over C&D on both outings this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (17) (20/1 +29%) Dreamrocker |
20/1(+29%) | (17) Dreamrocker 20/1, Showed improved form to resume winning ways in 11-runner handicap at Ascot (8f, good) in July, doing well under the circumstances given how long she had to wait for a clear run. Ran at least as well in defeat at Sandown since and remains of interest. In good heart this summer and the step up in trip could unlock further improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (15) (100/1 -900%) Battle Queen |
100/1(-900%) | (15) Battle Queen 100/1, Displayed plenty of ability before opening her account in a Nottingham maiden (8.3f) in May. Shaped well when sixth in Sandringham handicap at Royal Ascot (second home in group) and was unlucky not to make more of a race of it with the winner at Newbury subsequently. Big chance up in trip. Kept on well for second over 1m at Newbury; further improvement is possible now up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (12) (100/1 -100%) Moogie |
100/1(-100%) | (12) Moogie 100/1, Three-time winner on AW but proved herself fully effective on turf when doing best of the older fillies behind a 3-y-o handicap debutante at Ascot (10f) in May. Next run best excused but not at her best on her last 2 outings. Runner-up off this mark at Ascot in May but three lesser performances have followed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (11) (50/1 -900%) Power Of Destiny |
50/1(-900%) | (11) Power Of Destiny 50/1, Confirmed promise of debut when winning at Haydock in June and much better form in defeat since, including when head second of 9 to Al Anoud in handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Should have more to offer and has to be shortlisted. Pushed Al Anoud close on Glorious Goodwood handicap debut; in excellent hands to progress. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
The 3yo BATTLE QUEEN has run fine races in defeat over 1m the last twice and is open to further improvement now she's up in trip.

1st (1) (4/1 +33%) Alioski |
4/1(+33%) | (1) Alioski 4/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Lit up once again when seventh of 8 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, good to firm, 10/3) 57 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Placed twice in May (Flat/hurdles) but doesn't help himself by racing too freely. |

2nd (4) (100/1 -2400%) James Park Woods |
100/1(-2400%) | (4) James Park Woods 100/1, Twenty-seven runs since sole win in 2019. Again below form when fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (8f, heavy, 7/2) 9 days ago. Up in trip. In the frame over 1m on all five outings this season and should be fine over today's trip. |

3rd (3) (20/1 -1043%) Iconique |
20/1(-1043%) | (3) Iconique 20/1, One win from 29 Flat runs. Impressed with how she moved through the race when second of 9 in handicap (15/2) at Bath (11.6f, firm) 3 weeks ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Leading claims in this grade for the first time. Good second in recent Bath handicap and a major player in this grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (66/1 -2100%) Goodwood Vision |
66/1(-2100%) | (2) Goodwood Vision 66/1, Stepped up on reappearance run when fourth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 40/1) 11 days ago. Should prove suited by a return to this trip and can make presence felt. Bettered poor stable debut when fourth in recent Windsor handicap; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (400/1 -2757%) Rita Rana |
400/1(-2757%) | (5) Rita Rana 400/1, Twenty-one runs since sole win in 2022. 10/1, last of 5 in minor event at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Others preferred. Unplaced in all six handicaps this year and came last in this grade ten days ago. |

6th (7) (200/1 -1150%) The Flying Falco |
200/1(-1150%) | (7) The Flying Falco 200/1, 66/1, showed nothing when ninth of 11 on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (14f) 25 days ago. Back down in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Well beaten when 66-1 for handicap debut; drops back from 1m6f with blinkers tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (250/1 -1686%) Master Toney |
250/1(-1686%) | (9) Master Toney 250/1, 28/1, fared no better upped in trip after 3 months off when last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 24 days ago. Five-race maiden; well down the field in both handicaps; needs to raise his game here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Iconique occupied the runner-up berth in handicap company at Bath earlier in the month and it would be no surprise to see her get into contention. However, she could come out second best to GOODWOOD VISION, who has dropped to a very workable mark and she caught the eye keeping on for fourth over 1m at Windsor last week. Rita Rana is another to note.
ICONIQUE has just the one success to her name but having impressed with how she moved through the race when runner-up at Bath 3 weeks ago, Tony Carroll's mare is fancied to go a place better dropped into classified company for the first time. Goodwood Vision is next best.
She's on a lengthy losing streak but ICONIQUE has not been with Tony Carroll long and is eased in grade after a good recent second.

7/2(-40%) | (2) Regal Connection 7/2, Fair maiden but he was below his best when third of 9 in maiden (2/1) at Lingfield (11.6f, good) 13 days ago. Still respected now going into handicaps for top yard. Clear promise in his last two qualifying runs and he looks interesting on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (5/2 +29%) Aulis |
5/2(+29%) | (5) Aulis 5/2, Is knocking at the door, blinkered for 1st time when good second of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Can go well again in his bid for a breakthrough victory. 0-8 but he's finished runner-up in last three starts and is respected back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (5/1 -122%) The Thunderer |
5/1(-122%) | (3) The Thunderer 5/1, It's now 13 runs since his last win in 2023 but he posted a good second of 6 in handicap here (10f, good) 7 days ago. Big shout off a 2 lb lower mark here. Bounced back with close call here last week and is a big player if he can repeat that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (40/1 -233%) Old Saxony |
40/1(-233%) | (4) Old Saxony 40/1, Son of Saxon Warrior who has shaped with promise, seventh of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Ascot (12f, good to firm) 13 days ago when not ideally placed. Remains with potential to progress. Unexposed but has mixed record so far and was well held on handicap debut at Ascot. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (20/1 -25%) God Of Thunder |
20/1(-25%) | (1) God Of Thunder 20/1, Doubled his tally at Lingfield on Good Friday. However, he hasn't gone on from that effort in four subsequent starts. Needs to get back on the up. Has lost his way in last three runs and is now 0-10 on turf; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (66/1 -1550%) Golden Phase |
66/1(-1550%) | (6) Golden Phase 66/1, Dual 10f scorer at Bath in summer and posted another solid effort when fourth of 11 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 32 days ago, running on. Can make his presence felt once more. In-form 4yo who has won twice this season and this new trip looks worth exploring. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Aulis has filled the runner-up spot on each of his last three outings and has proven to be expensive to follow, but it would be foolish to dismiss him completely. However, REGAL CONNECTION looks the way to go. Charlie Appleby's three-year-old has shown a fair amount of ability in his three starts in maiden/novice company and is bred to be a lot better than a mark of 80. The Thunderer completes the shortlist.
THE THUNDERER signalled he's ready to end a losing sequence when runner-up here a week ago and can take full advantage of a 2 lb lower mark. Aulis might have to settle for runner-up spot once more with the much less exposed Old Saxony also in the mix along with Golden Phase and Regal Connection.
Preference is for the unexposed REGAL CONNECTION who has shown plenty of promise in his last two runs and looks on a fair opening mark.

2nd (5) (7/2 -87%) The Marty Party |

3rd (1) (Evs +100%) Yamal |
Evs(+100%) | (1) Yamal Evs, 17/2, sixth of 8 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Makes handicap debut (gelded) and well weighted on his debut form. Big shout. Ran well in pair of good maidens over 7f; didn't get home on first try at 1m; gelded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (10/1 +9%) Zaraahmando |
10/1(+9%) | (6) Zaraahmando 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in maiden at Tipperary (7.1f, soft, 50/1) 86 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Three quick runs in country maidens in May (money for him on second start); gelded since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (7/1 +46%) Shocker |
7/1(+46%) | (3) Shocker 7/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 9 in maiden at Bellewstown (7.9f, good, 8/1) 49 days ago. Blinkers reached for switched to a nursery. Outclassed at Royal Ascot but, either side of that, beaten less than a length in maidens. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
YAMAL may be worth siding with here on his handicap debut. The Dark Angel had two good runs on his first couple of outings in strong maidens and although it was a slightly disappointing effort last time at Leopardstown he was far from disgraced when sixth behind Green Impact. Judged on his first two runs he could be nicely treated off 80. King Thistle ran better than his finishing position suggests when mid-division on his handicap debut at Galway, having had to overcome traffic problems. He could give young Patrick McGettigan a good spin here. Shocker wasn't beaten far when fourth in a Bellewstown maiden last time and is another for the shortlist.
YAMAL's opening mark could be judged as lenient given how his debut performance worked out and having been gelded, he's fancied to get back on track. The Marty Party is expected to show more this time, the Sunriseontheboyne another to note up in trip.
For last year's winning trainer, THE MARTY PARTY has looked a handicap project and they'll be disappointed if he can't go close off 62

Should have more to offer for his powerful stable. Ran well despite failing favourite backers at Redcar and he is bred for this longer trip. |

Hurricane Bea |
(10) (200/1 +0%)200/1(+0%) | (10) Hurricane Bea 200/1, 40/1, last of 9 on 6f Redcar debut in June. Big outsider. Always behind when last of nine runners in a 6f novice at Redcar (good to firm). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (1) (9/4 +36%) Angelo Buonarroti |
9/4(+36%) | (1) Angelo Buonarroti 9/4, €1,000,000 breeze-up purchase. Faced a demanding task on debut but acquitted himself well when 2¾ lengths ninth of 22 in Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Has since switched yards and big shout dropped in class. Not disgraced for a debutant when beaten 3l into ninth of 22 in the Coventry. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (14) (22/1 -83%) Shah |
22/1(-83%) | (14) Shah 22/1, Purchased for 100,000 gns earlier in the year and made an encouraging start to his career when second of 6 over 7f at Leicester 12 days ago, staying on. Open to progress. Second at Leicester and the two he divided were well-bred newcomers from top yards. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (13/2 +0%) Realign |
13/2(+0%) | (12) Realign 13/2, €550,000 breeze-up buy who made a promising start to his career when second over 6f at Newmarket (good) 3 weeks ago. Will improve. Lots to like about Newmarket debut when inexperience was evident; likely improver. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (80/1 -142%) Bowen Island |
80/1(-142%) | (4) Bowen Island 80/1, Fairly useful form when reaching the frame over 6f at Newcastle (AW) and Haydock (firm) in his 2 starts. More will be needed now tackling 7f for the first time. Has produced figures that make him one of the stronger form contenders here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (20) (100/1 -1900%) Whirl |
100/1(-1900%) | (20) Whirl 100/1, 11/1, fourth of 11 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, good) on debut 33 days ago. Can be expected to improve for a top stable which won this race last year. 4th in a good Curragh maiden; scopey filly with better days ahead virtually guaranteed. |

6th (17) (66/1 -1000%) Ultrasoul |
66/1(-1000%) | (17) Ultrasoul 66/1, Promising individual. 8/1, second of 11 in maiden at Yarmouth (6f, good) on debut 50 days ago, finishing strongly. That form boosted. Should improve now stepping up to 7f. High on the shortlist. Second to Gimcrack contender Shadow Of Light on debut; this 7f is sure to suit. |

7th (3) (100/1 -733%) Bambalam |
100/1(-733%) | (3) Bambalam 100/1, Foaled May 4. 600,000 gns breeze-up purchase by Persian King. Half-brother to useful French 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Ritournelle. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. The stable has sent out a couple of promising first-time-out winners recently and a market move for this one would look significant. Made 80,000euros as a foal but 600,000gns at the Craven breeze-ups this April. |

8th (18) (66/1 -560%) White Chapel Road |
66/1(-560%) | (18) White Chapel Road 66/1, Has shown promise when reaching frame twice in 6f maidens in recent months, shaping as if ready for 6f when fourth at Goodwood latterly. Likely has bigger performances in him. Two good runs and gives the impression that today's extra 1f will bring him on some more. |

9th (16) (100/1 -733%) Spirit Of Summer |
100/1(-733%) | (16) Spirit Of Summer 100/1, 11/1, 5 lengths second of 12 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good) on debut 14 days ago, clear of rest. Should have more to offer. No match for the winner at Newmarket but showed promise and can improve. |

10th (11) (150/1 -20%) Lever Up |
150/1(-20%) | (11) Lever Up 150/1, Foaled January 31. Ulysses gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 7f Existent out of winning half-sister to Sun Chariot/Falmouth Stakes winner Integral. One of 2 newcomers from the stable. Likely outsider. First foal; dam unraced half-sister to Group-placed 5f-7f winner Existent; has been gelded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (150/1 -127%) Goal Line |
150/1(-127%) | (8) Goal Line 150/1, 11/1, showed ability when third of 7 on 6f Ayr debut 13 days ago but not enough to suggest he's likely to play a prominent role in a warm maiden like this one. Third at Ayr but that form doesn't look anywhere near good enough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (15) (100/1 -100%) Sherlock |
100/1(-100%) | (15) Sherlock 100/1, 11/2 needed the experience when fifth of 6 in novice at Haydock (7f, good) on debut 34 days ago. Capable of better but a big chunk of improvement will be needed to go close. Green on Haydock debut and dropped out to beat only one home; opposable after that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (9) (80/1 -400%) High Season |
80/1(-400%) | (9) High Season 80/1, Promising type. Second of 9 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm, 12/1) on debut 9 days ago, clear of rest. Open to improvement for a stable which has tasted success in this race. Made a nice start at Beverley (winner odds-on) and bred to improve with his racing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (13) (100/1 -257%) Red Admiral |
100/1(-257%) | (13) Red Admiral 100/1, Foaled March 23. €100,000 Dark Angel colt. Dam unraced half-sister to Desmond Stakes winner Alexios Komnenos from an excellent family. Worth a precautionary betting check but a very useful performance will be required to take this on debut, particularly from stall 19. 100,000euros yearling; out of an unraced half-sister to 1m Group 3 winner Alexios Komnenos. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (5) (100/1 +0%) Draupnir |
100/1(+0%) | (5) Draupnir 100/1, Foaled May 24. 24,000 gns foal, Golden Horn colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 7f-1¼m winner Don't Give Up and winner up to 11f Welford. Dam 11f winner. Bred to have a future but best watched this time unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Bred to have a future but stable's newcomers are usually best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (7) (100/1 -52%) Frostmagic |
100/1(-52%) | (7) Frostmagic 100/1, Foaled March 19. Frosted colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart 5f-7f winner Good Effort and 1m-1¼m winner Magical Mile. Will need to be good to take this on debut. Well related to plenty of winners and Jim Crowley has a positive record for the yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (6) (100/1 -100%) Fajhan |
100/1(-100%) | (6) Fajhan 100/1, Foaled January 26. 90,000 gns Kameko colt. Dam, 1m winner, closely related to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Hot Snap and half-sister to high-class winner up to 1½m Midday. A watching brief is the percentage call on debut. 90,000gns yearling; first foal; dam 1m winner from an excellent Juddmonte family. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
A line through Gimcrack contender Shadow Of Light can be made which gives ULTRASOUL a form edge over Realign (second choice).

1st (1) (2/5 +30%) Luckinthecity |
2/5(+30%) | (1) Luckinthecity 2/5, Fairly useful bumper winner who got back on track after 7 months off when third of 8 in bumper at Galway (16f, soft, 7/1) 19 days ago. Found a weak race on hurdling debut and has excellent claims. Useful level of form in bumpers; rain no problem and likely major player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (7/1 -56%) Garnacho |
7/1(-56%) | (10) Garnacho 7/1, Showed some ability in bumpers and did do again sent hurdling in a first-time tongue strap when second of 16 in maiden at Roscommon (15.4f, soft) on hurdles bow 17 days ago. Merits consideration. Recent Roscommon maiden second has to be respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (66/1 -65%) Arthur's Victory |
66/1(-65%) | (5) Arthur's Victory 66/1, Disappointed bearing in mind the promise of last run when only ninth of 15 in maiden at Tramore (16.6f, good to soft, 66/1) 5 days ago. Didn't land a blow on return from a short break at Tramore last weekend; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (40/1 +39%) Next Week |
40/1(+39%) | (2) Next Week 40/1, Fair bumper winner but well held both starts over hurdles. Bumper winner here in 2022 but recent maiden hurdle efforts not encouraging. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (33/1 -106%) Pepperpots |
33/1(-106%) | (7) Pepperpots 33/1, Bumper winner who offered something to work on sent hurdling when fifth of 9 in maiden at Downpatrick (17.8f, good, 18/1) 12 days ago. Should improve. Shock Downpatrick bumper winner in May well held on hurdles debut there on latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (15/2 -7%) Ballinvasas Best |
15/2(-7%) | (13) Ballinvasas Best 15/2, Has shown ability when in the frame both starts over hurdles. Down in trip. Mild promise in 2m4f maidens last month; not sure this drop in trip will suit though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (200/1 -300%) International Lady |
200/1(-300%) | (6) International Lady 200/1, Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 9f) but again refused to race last time and makes little appeal on hurdle debut. Limited enough Flat handicapper refused to race at Bellewstown on latest; hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (33/1 +0%) Glyde Ranger |
33/1(+0%) | (4) Glyde Ranger 33/1, Fair Flat winner who wasn't seen to best effect on his most recent outing. Makes hurdle bow . Fair mid-distance Flat handicapper but hard to see him making an immediate impact hurdling. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (14) (16/1 -129%) Finnicky Filly |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (14/1 -40%) Boston Beach |
14/1(-40%) | (9) Boston Beach 14/1, 9/1, shaped as if needing the run when fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) on NH debut 13 days ago. Entitled to do better. Looked a bit green on recent C&D hurdles debut when remote 4th of 7; entitled to improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (300/1 -200%) Storm Steps |
300/1(-200%) | (3) Storm Steps 300/1, Modest Flat performer who shaped with no promise making a belated hurdling debut at Roscommon 17 days ago. Never counted (jumped deliberately) on recent Roscommon hurdles debut; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (150/1 -50%) A Year Older |
150/1(-50%) | (8) A Year Older 150/1, Well held in maiden/novice hurdles. Big odds, soundly beaten both maiden hurdle runs. |

13th (11) (300/1 -809%) Ryoma |
300/1(-809%) | (11) Ryoma 300/1, Dragon Pulse gelding. Dam down the field sole start in bumpers. Newcomer best watched unless market speaks in his favour on belated debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (12) (400/1 -300%) Susie Wosie |
400/1(-300%) | (12) Susie Wosie 400/1, Modest form when winning claimer on Flat in 2023 for Noel Meade but no show since. Low-grade Flat handicapper best watched on hurdles debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
LUCKINTHECITY is a useful bumper performer and gets the vote to make a winning start over hurdles. The selection scored on debut at the Listowel Festival last year and returned after a break when third behind The Passing Wife at Galway earlier this month. Garnacho showed some promise in two bumper starts and was prominent throughout when switched to hurdles at Roscommon filling the runner-up spot behind the impressive Zariygann. Glyde Ranger and International Lady both have plenty of experience on the Flat and now switch to hurdles, while Finnicky Filly and Boston Beach may prove best of the remainder.
LUCKINTHECITY has achieved a fairly useful level in bumpers and may not need to replicate that form to make a winning start over hurdles in a weak race. Garnacho and Ballinvasas Best have both shown a bit of promise and could be the pair to fill the places.
A maiden which may not take much winning and likely a good opportunity for hurdles newcomer LUCKINTHECITY

1st (1) (7/2 -40%) Three Dons |
7/2(-40%) | (1) Three Dons 7/2, 6/1, wasn't disgraced in pursuit of a 4-timer when third of 6 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good) 16 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Back up in trip. Can give another good account. Resurgent 5yo who has already collected four wins this season; high on the list. |

2nd (4) (33/1 -1220%) Marmalade Lady |
33/1(-1220%) | (4) Marmalade Lady 33/1, Winner at Chepstow in June. 10/3, shaped as if still in top form when fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW) 30 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has to be taken seriously. Two very respectable runs since breakthrough win in June; cheekpieces added today. |

3rd (5) (66/1 -633%) Private Bryan |
66/1(-633%) | (5) Private Bryan 66/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. 20/1, followed a good run with a poor one when last of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 24 days ago. Must bounce back. Placed off this mark on AW in July but well held since; others have more pressing claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (66/1 -633%) Nevendon |
66/1(-633%) | (2) Nevendon 66/1, Ran one of his lesser races sent chasing when fourth of 7 in handicap chase (16/1) at Stratford (17f, good) on debut over fences in June. Modest on the Flat, run best excused when last seen in this sphere at Bath 11 months ago. Market can guide. In fairly good form over jumps in the spring and reverts to the Flat on a workable mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (300/1 -10809%) Highland Lil |
300/1(-10809%) | (6) Highland Lil 300/1, Ran up to best when third of 6 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 33/1) 37 days ago, slowly away. Visor on 1st time. Third behind two very progressive rivals over C&D last month and another 2lb lower today. |

Well-beaten 66-1 shot when upped to 1m6f for recent stable debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Three Dons failed to complete the four-timer when he was beaten into third at Brighton last time, but he should remain competitive off the same mark. However, MARMALADE LADY may have more scope for improvement off her current rating. Hughie Morrison's three-year-old finished fourth over 1m5f at Lingfield last month and the return to turf in first-time cheekpieces could work the oracle. Highland Lil is another to watch out for.
Preference is for MARMALADE LADY, who shaped as if still in top form when fourth at Lingfield last month and first-time cheekpieces can eke out that little bit extra. Three Dons wasn't disgraced in the pursuit of a 4-timer at Brighton just over a fortnight ago, so he heads up the dangers, with Highland Lil rounding off the shortlist in a change of headgear.
Third behind two very progressive rivals over C&D last month, HIGHLAND LIL (nap) can open her account today.

3/1(+80%) | (3) Monasterboice 3/1, Fairly useful gelding. C&D winner. 9/2, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Galway (8.6f, good to soft) 23 days ago, driven out. Has good chance on form. Kept his existing mark after C&D maiden win, further progress feasible after Galway win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (11/4 +0%) Four Blondes |
11/4(+0%) | (4) Four Blondes 11/4, Fairly useful filly. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Fairyhouse in July. 7/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good) 33 days ago. Fairyhouse maiden winner over 7f, dropped 2lb following Curragh fourth on handicap debut. |

4th (5) (11/2 -175%) Artful Approach |
11/2(-175%) | (5) Artful Approach 11/2, Fairly useful gelding. Winner at Galway in July. 15/2, good third of 12 in handicap at Galway (8.3f, soft) 19 days ago. Two good Galway performances, has improved since fifth to Four Blondes in a C&D maiden. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (11/4 +0%) Il Pellegrino |
11/4(+0%) | (6) Il Pellegrino 11/4, Lightly-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Limerick in June. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) 43 days ago. Beat Monasterboice at Limerick, got upset in stalls when fifth in a Leopardstown handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (11/1 +21%) Action Plan |
11/1(+21%) | (2) Action Plan 11/1, Fairly useful gelding. Winner at Gowran in April. 25/1, respectable 8¼ lengths fifth of 10 to Monasterboice in handicap at Galway (8.6f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Others more persuasive. Beaten around 8l behind the 9lb-receiving Monasterboice at Galway, level terms now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
IL PELLEGRINO may be capable of a bit better on his second outing in handicap company. The No Nay Never colt reportedly got upset in the stalls before finishing fifth at Leopardstown last month. He had beaten one of today's rivals, Monasterboice, in a Limerick maiden previously and that rival has won twice since. Il Pellegrino gets weight from Noel Meade's runner now. Monasterboice won his maiden over course and distance and should be a big player again. Top-weight Democracy is tried in cheekpieces now and is another to add to the shortlist, as he has been knocking on the door recently.
Galway winner MONASTERBOICE has been a different proposition since front-running tactics have been employed and is taken to go in again. Aidan O'Brien's Democracy is feared most ahead of Jack Davison's Artful Approach, another who was in good form at the Galway Festival.
Having beaten dual subsequent winner Monasterboice in a Limerick maiden, IL PELLEGRINO may bounce back from a Leopardstown lapse

1st (3) (9/1 -157%) Silent Flame |
9/1(-157%) | (3) Silent Flame 9/1, Has reacted well to blinkers, snaping a losing run at Newbury (6f, good to soft) in July and good placed efforts on her 2 outings since. Should go well again. Done well since blinkers were added; not shone at Goodwood in the past but still respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (14/1 -115%) Lahina Bay |
14/1(-115%) | (5) Lahina Bay 14/1, Latest win at Windsor (6f, good to firm) in July. Good third of 15 in handicap there 3 weeks later but below her best when fourth of 13 at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Well suited by fast turf; comes here in decent order and she's likely to go well again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (11/1 -120%) Papabella |
11/1(-120%) | (8) Papabella 11/1, Off the mark in 6f Ffos Las handicap 24 days ago. Did that quite cosily from a next-time-out winner so a 3 lb higher mark may not be beyond her. Off the mark at the 10th attempt when landing a Ffos Las handicap last month; more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (50/1 -25%) Unico |
50/1(-25%) | (4) Unico 50/1, Won a 6f Yarmouth handicap in April for Marco Botting but struggled in her 3 outings for this yard. Below that winning mark but not obviously in good enough form to take advantage. Yet to shine for new yard, including when behind Silent Flame at Newbury. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (50/1 -525%) Media Guest |
50/1(-525%) | (6) Media Guest 50/1, Won 13-runner handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to firm, 9/2) last month but not in anything like the same form when last of 5 at Salisbury since. Gained an overdue win at Bath last month; less good at Salisbury since; can bounce back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (33/1 -313%) Bated Breeze |
33/1(-313%) | (7) Bated Breeze 33/1, Did too much too soon in a first-time visor at Epsom (7f, good) last month. Now back down at 6f in a change of headgear (cheekpieces). 0-9 but the odd run that hints he's up to winning a similar race; interesting back at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (14/1 +0%) Cooperation |
14/1(+0%) | (2) Cooperation 14/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Epsom (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Potentially well handicapped but need to see more. Struggling for form this year, most recently well held at Epsom last week; vulnerable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (16/1 -191%) Calafrio |
16/1(-191%) | (9) Calafrio 16/1, 2/1, career best when winning 11-runner classified event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 14 days ago, comfortably. More on her plate back in a handicap but wouldn't be a surprise to see this 3-y-o step up again. Easy win in a classified event at Thirsk two weeks ago; should go well back in a handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (100/1 -3233%) Symbol Of Hope |
100/1(-3233%) | (1) Symbol Of Hope 100/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm, 4/1) 21 days ago, responding well. Should remain competitive up 6 lb. Well suited by up to 5.5f at a stiff track; in good form but this test perhaps not ideal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CALAFRIO won a classified event with plenty in hand at Thirsk a fortnight ago and the Phillip Kirby-trained filly could play another leading role if she handles this return to handicap company. Silent Flame has some C&D experience and can also go well given that she is on a good mark in comparison to her peak form. Lahina Bay and Media Guest complete the shortlist.
Rod Millman's SILENT FLAME has had a good spell since blinkered and gets the nod. Papabella saw off a next-time-out winner when off the mark at Ffos Las at the end of July and is second choice ahead of northern raider Calafrio.
Silent Flame looks set to go well again but BATED BREEZE has hinted at better on a couple of occasions and he gets the nod.

Midnight Gun |
(4) (9/1 -100%)9/1(-100%) | (4) Midnight Gun 9/1, Progressive, winning Nottingham novice and Newmarket handicap (both 1m) for Ed Walker in May/June. Subsequently bought by Wathnan Racing and still looked ahead of a mark starting out for this yard when third at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago. Considered back down in trip. Close third at Glorious Goodwood on debut for new connections; open to further progress. |

Native Warrior |
(6) (12/1 -41%)12/1(-41%) | (6) Native Warrior 12/1, Shaped well both 2-y-o starts and wasn't far behind Notable Speech on return at Kempton in April. Successful in a Nottingham maiden next time and improved again taking on his elders for the first time when runner-up at Goodwood (9f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago. Stacks to like. Performed very well in handicaps at Royal Ascot and Glorious Goodwood; solid claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (12) (7/1 +42%) Treasure Time |
7/1(+42%) | (12) Treasure Time 7/1, Steadily progressive son of Time Test who opened his account at Newmarket (7f) in June and stepped up further up in class when runner-up back at that venue (1m) 3 weeks later. Much better than result when fifth at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) last time and clearly still one to be interested in. Ran creditably at Glorious Goodwood; in excellent hands and may do better still. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (17/2 +58%) Volterra |
17/2(+58%) | (11) Volterra 17/2, Looked firmly on the up when scoring on Rowley Course in May and came home first in his group when eleventh of 29 in handicap at Royal Ascot (8f, firm). Proved to be a disappointment at Newmarket (8f, good) just under 6 weeks ago (did too much too soon) so certainly worth another chance. No apparent excuses last time and now has two duck eggs next to his name; opposed. |

3rd (5) (9/2 +31%) Mount Teide |
9/2(+31%) | (5) Mount Teide 9/2, Confirmed previous promise when opening account in a Chepstow novice (7f) in May and showed improved form trying 1m for the first time when easy winner of 6-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) just under a fortnight ago. 7 lb higher but looks one to keep on the right side of. Made all at Newmarket two weeks ago, proving suited by the step up to 1m; progressive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (33/1 +18%) Apiarist |
33/1(+18%) | (14) Apiarist 33/1, Edged ahead late on in valuable sales' race at this track (7f, heavy) on final start at 2 yrs and performed creditably whilst looking no more than averagely treated in handicaps on each of his last 3 starts. Plenty more needed in this. Won valuable prize here last autumn; consistent efforts since handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (17) (100/1 -300%) Zain Blue |
100/1(-300%) | (17) Zain Blue 100/1, Made a promising start in handicaps when runner-up at Ascot in May and belatedly built on that when opening his account back there (8f, good) last month. Went a long way to confirming that improvement when third behind Mount Teide at Newmarket recently and holds each-way claims again. Off the mark at Ascot in July; unable to follow up off this mark at Newmarket since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (18) (100/1 -150%) Madame De Sevigne |
100/1(-150%) | (18) Madame De Sevigne 100/1, Night of Thunder filly who showed improved form to get off the mark with something to spare at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last month, racing much more kindly in the finish on a flatter track. This a much harder race, but she can continue to progress. Opened her account in Class 4 event at Leicester last month; this is a harder task. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (100/1 -1011%) Paborus |
100/1(-1011%) | (10) Paborus 100/1, Doubled his tally in 11-runner novice at Carlisle (6.9f, good to firm) back in May and with this step up in trip sure to suit, this highly progressive sort could well have a big say now handicapping provided he's ready to roll. Very progressive in 7f novice events in the north; the type to do well in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (16) (80/1 -344%) Tokenomics |
80/1(-344%) | (16) Tokenomics 80/1, Improved to get off the mark with a bit to spare in 14-runner handicap at Dundalk (7f) last month before following up in similarly smooth fashion at Leopardstown (9f, good to soft) just over 4 weeks ago. Respected making his first start on the shores. Irish challenger; record of 311 since handicapping; may improve further; not ruled out. |

9th (1) (80/1 -186%) Golden Mind |
80/1(-186%) | (1) Golden Mind 80/1, Half-brother to Perfect Power who won the Norfolk/Commonwealth Cup and progressed from run-to-run last year, last seen when 1¾ lengths fourth of 9 to Haatem in Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) 12 months ago. Presumably been hard to get to the track and now sent handicapping. Has earned top weight judged on his progressive 2yo form; absent for over a year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (100/1 -355%) Usuario Amigo |
100/1(-355%) | (13) Usuario Amigo 100/1, Proved disappointing on handicap debut at Lingfield in June but having been gelded, got right back on track after 2 months off when runner-up at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) just under 3 weeks ago. Visor applied and the likelihood is he'll find a few too strong. Ran well last time but he's the only maiden in this better contest; headgear applied. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (66/1 -843%) Dosman |
66/1(-843%) | (3) Dosman 66/1, Confirmed debut promise after 8 months off when landing 13-runner novice at Kempton (7f) on reappearance in June and improved again when finding a couple of newcomers too strong at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) later that month. Off since but looks a potential improver now handicapping. Improving colt; latest effort has bags of substance; highly interesting on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (15) (100/1 -52%) Sailthisshipalone |
100/1(-52%) | (15) Sailthisshipalone 100/1, Is developing a decent course record here but just creditable efforts when mid-field at Thirsk/Windsor this month. Hard to see him getting involved in something this competitive. Best efforts at York but he is more exposed than many of these opponents. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (19) (80/1 -21%) Candonomore |
80/1(-21%) | (19) Candonomore 80/1, Showed promise all 3 starts at 2yrs and made a winning return in good style in 1m Haydock maiden. Yet to be seen to truly best effect in handicaps since but looks no more than averagely treated in any case. Form of his maiden win hasn't worked out well; struggled in handicaps since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (2) (100/1 -100%) Indian Run |
100/1(-100%) | (2) Indian Run 100/1, Won the Group 3 Acomb here 12 months ago and back on track following a wind op when 6¾ lengths eleventh of 19 to Haatem in Jersey Stakes at Royal Ascot. However, he ran poorly on handicap debut 6 weeks later at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) and now first-time cheekpieces go on. Won Group 3 Acomb here last year; has failed to repeat the form; headgear enlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (9) (50/1 -317%) Ebt's Guard |
50/1(-317%) | (9) Ebt's Guard 50/1, Consistent type who deservedly opened his account when landing the odds in 1m Thirsk maiden in June. Enhanced his form further returned to handicaps since, never-nearer second at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago. Nudged up 4 lb for that near miss. Consistent sort who looked unlucky at Glorious Goodwood most recently; possibilities. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (8) (50/1 -317%) Crown Estate |
50/1(-317%) | (8) Crown Estate 50/1, Got off the mark with plenty in hand on return at Newcastle in March and it has been a tale of gradual progression, doubling his tally fitted with cheekpieces in 6-runner handicap at Salisbury (8f, good to firm) a couple of months ago. This tougher, but he could well have more in the locker. Both wins making all in small fields; steadily progressive but this scenario isn't ideal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Having not quite lasted home when collared late on over 1m2f at Goodwood earlier this month, MIDNIGHT GUN is likely to relish this drop in trip. Hamad Al Jehani's charge was denied a hat-trick by just half a length on that occasion and a 3lb rise in the ratings doesn't appear out of his reach. Golden Mind will have to defy top-weight to claim this prize but, having run well in the Vintage at Goodwood, he could be a Group horse in a handicap. Blue Prince warrants consideration despite being raised 4lb for his win over 7f at Goodwood last month.
A valuable 3-y-o contest littered with unexposed types and it's MIDNIGHT GUN who gets the nod to continue his upward trajectory having still looked some way ahead of hismark starting out for this trainer at Goodwood just over 3 weeks ago. Back down in trip, he can regain the winning thread at the expense of Volterra, who can have a line put through his latest effort. Native Warrior, Mount Teide and Ebt's Guard are just a handful of others to consider, too.
Being an improving colt whose latest form has been boosted, DOSMAN (nap) is particularly interesting. Midnight Gun is second choice.

1st (3) (Evens +9%) Tounsivator |
Evens(+9%) | (3) Tounsivator Evens, Belatedly built on his hurdling debut win when very good second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16f, soft, 17/2) 21 days ago. Sets the standard. Caught on the post in valuable Galway handicap; probably the one to beat. |

2nd (2) (9/4 +0%) Ninth Titan |
9/4(+0%) | (2) Ninth Titan 9/4, Useful Flat winner who progressed again when second of 12 in novice hurdle at Galway (20.7f, good to soft) 22 days ago, closing all way to line. Open to further improvement. Galway novice second progressing nicely, should go well. |

3rd (6) (7/1 +30%) Karacole |
7/1(+30%) | (6) Karacole 7/1, Ran close to her best back in a maiden when second of 14 at this course (19f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Should remain competitive if turning up here in similar form. C&D maiden second 13 days ago; gets the weight allowances but still faces stiff task. |

25/1(-108%) | (5) Hardy Diamond 25/1, Made a successful debut over hurdles over C&D in July. However, went the wrong way under more testing conditions at Sligo. Return to better ground to suit but plenty to prove at this level. |

28/1(-27%) | (4) Charming Star 28/1, Fairly useful on Flat (below form of late) and confirmed hurdling debut promise when winning a juvenile maiden at Navan in March. However, proved to be a disappointment at Downpatrick in July. Below par under both codes of late; looks to have a bit to do here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Riding arrangements suggest TOUNSIVATOR is preferred of Willie Mullins' two runners and the dual-purpose gelding can gain compensation after a very narrow defeat in a valuable handicap hurdle at the Galway Festival. The French import won a 25-runner Naas maiden hurdle earlier this year and was just headed on the line by Volantis at Ballybrit. Stablemate Ninth Titan easily made all in a Tramore maiden but may find this a bit sharp having stayed on well last time when runner-up to Donnie Devito in a 2m4f Galway novice. Al Gasparo impressed when making all in a Killarney maiden, but the point-to-point winner was soundly beaten last time at Galway.
TOUNSIVATOR sets the standard judged on his excellent second in a Galway handicap 3 weeks ago, so he has to be considered the one to beat, especially with the timefigure supporting his performance. Ninth Titan, a stablemate of the selection, is going the right way as a hurdler and rates the main threat ahead of Al Gasparo, who appeals as the type to bounce back quickly.
Likely a good pace here which could set this up nicely for TOUNSIVATOR, whose Galway handicap second sets a decent standard

1st (3) (11/8 +66%) Castle Stuart |
11/8(+66%) | (3) Castle Stuart 11/8, Well-bred colt but has looked a work-in-progress so far, third of 4 in novice (8/1) at Haydock (8f, firm) 14 days ago. In the right hands. Very respectable third of four when upped to 1m at Haydock this month; major player. |

2nd (1) (9/4 -125%) Boston Run |
9/4(-125%) | (1) Boston Run 9/4, Promising individual. 16/1 and hooded, second of 6 in novice at Haydock (7f, good) on debut 34 days ago. Sets the bar pretty high with promise of much more to come. Persistently short of room before keeping on well to snatch second on Haydock debut. |

3rd (4) (8/1 -300%) Raulin |
8/1(-300%) | (4) Raulin 8/1, Foaled February 8. 150,000 gns yearling, Mehmas colt. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to very smart 1m/9f winner Gm Hopkins out of useful 1¼m/10.7f winner Varsity. One to note on debut. 150,000gns yearling; out of half-sister to a Group 3 winner; market may guide. |

Half-brother to several winners, including 7f/1m winner Narnia Dawn and 8.3f-1½m winner Meteor Light, both useful. Dam lightly raced. 22,000gns 2yo; already gelded and has pretty good standard to reach on debut. |

6th (5) (50/1 -52%) U S Grant |
50/1(-52%) | (5) U S Grant 50/1, 40/1, last of 6 in novice at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) on debut 56 days ago. Tailed off when 40-1 for debut in June; gelded last month. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
BOSTON RUN displayed plenty of promise when hitting the crossbar on his debut over 7f at Haydock last month and Hugo Palmer's colt is hard to oppose on the back of that performance. Castle Stuart took a step forward when third at the same venue on his most recent outing and he could prove to be the main threat, although Raulin was an expensive purchase and is a newcomer to note.
It was a muddling contest that BOSTUN RUN finished second in starting out at Haydock a month ago but it was a promising effort nonetheless and with improvement assured, he'll take some stopping, Given his pedigree, Castle Stuart surely has a bigger performance in him, with Raulin a newcomer to note given his sales price.
This looks good for BOSTON RUN, who was denied a clear run before keeping on well for a very promising second on last month's debut.

Kayhana |
(3) (16/1 -60%)16/1(-60%) | (3) Kayhana 16/1, Fairly useful filly. Respectable 4¼ lengths sixth of 12 to Raknah in listed race (11/1) at Galway (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Stable having good spell so she's one to consider. Split Concluding Call and Curvature when sixth at Galway, not suited by race conditions. |

1st (8) (9/4 +0%) One Look |
9/4(+0%) | (8) One Look 9/4, Lightly-raced winner. Creditable ¾-length second of 8 to Wingspan in listed race at Gowran (9.4f, good, 5/1) 9 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Goffs Million winner, two disappointing runs before a more reassuring effort at Gowran. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (6/1 -50%) Princess Child |
6/1(-50%) | (9) Princess Child 6/1, Useful filly. 10/1, neck second of 12 to Raknah in listed race at Galway (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. A rare Irish import from Spain, comes into the reckoning based on excellent Galway second. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (15/2 -67%) Mexicali Rose |
15/2(-67%) | (4) Mexicali Rose 15/2, Useful filly. Latest win at Galway in July. 6 lengths tenth of 12 to Raknah in listed race (5/1) at Galway (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Still enters calculations. Won valuable Galway festival handicap, Listed attempt at same venue may have come too soon. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (5/1 +71%) Curvature |
5/1(+71%) | (2) Curvature 5/1, Useful filly. 8/1, respectable 4¼ lengths seventh of 12 to Raknah in listed race at Galway (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Can give a good account. Won in this grade last season, needs to step up from runs at Leopardstown and Galway. |

11/1(+8%) | (10) Without Words 11/1, Useful filly. 11¾ lengths fifth of 7 to Diego Velazquez in Meld Stakes at Leopardstown (9f, good, 22/1) 36 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. The lowest-rated of four Joseph O'Brien runners, plenty to prove in the circumstances. |

6th (7) (7/1 +53%) Military |
7/1(+53%) | (7) Military 7/1, Useful colt. 6¼ lengths seventh of 9 to Super Sox in listed race (12/1) at Cork (7f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Yard having good spell. Blinkers back on. Something to find on form. Winner and Group 3-placed at two, has failed to make a significant impact this season. |

9th (5) (9/1 -50%) Oujda |
9/1(-50%) | (5) Oujda 9/1, Useful filly. Won 6-runner minor event at La Teste (7f, good, 24/10) 57 days ago. First run for yard after leaving M. Baratti and well in the mix. Former French-trained filly, starts in Ireland with a rating that puts her in the mix. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ONE LOOK ran much better last time when chasing home Wingspan at Gowran Park and can strike at this level now. The Gleneagles filly looked like a star in the making when taking the Goffs Million in stunning style on her debut last year. It hasn't quite worked out this term but she finished off strongly in Listed company last time and can get back in the winner's enclosure now. French import Oujda is an interesting contender for Johnny Murtagh. The Sioux Nation filly won four times in her native land and was placed at this level. Joseph O'Brien saddles three and it's interesting that Dylan Browne McMonagle sides with Without Words.
ONE LOOK holds the edge on form so is fancied to go one better than when a good second at Gowran in similar company last time out. Oujda also has the form to play a big part now starting out with Johnny Murtagh, while Curvature and Mexicali Rose also need factoring into this open listed event.
Last year's impressive Goffs Million winner ONE LOOK got her career back on track with last week's Gowran second and may go one better

7/2(+61%) | (7) Sea Emily Run 7/2, Half-sister to several winners and encouragement when fourth on C&D debut in June. Backward step at Newmarket since but perhaps softish ground didn't suit her. Promising debut over C&D in June; less good at Newmarket since; faster ground today. |

2nd (1) (25/1 -1329%) Mollie Foster |
25/1(-1329%) | (1) Mollie Foster 25/1, Fairly useful form when winning a 6f Haydock novice last month. Not up to a listed race at Deauville (5f, good) since but much better can be expected with her sights lowered. Came up short in Listed company 3 weeks ago; earlier efforts set the standard. |

5th (6) (200/1 -400%) Kensington Hope |
200/1(-400%) | (6) Kensington Hope 200/1, Well held in 2 runs over 5f. Outsider. Down the field in two 5f runs this summer; new trip needs to spark a major transformation. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (100/1 -1718%) Empowered Queen |
100/1(-1718%) | (5) Empowered Queen 100/1, 10/3, sixth of 10 in novice at Lingfield (5f, AW) on debut 10 days ago, left poorly placed after a slow start. Her starting price that day suggests she is thought capable of better. Poor draw & too green to do herself justice at Lingfield (5f, AW) ten days ago; do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (100/1 -525%) Virtue Temperance |
100/1(-525%) | (8) Virtue Temperance 100/1, Modest form both starts and looks more one for nurseries after this. Some promise in two 6f runs but others have achieved considerably more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (66/1 -560%) Daisy Dukes |
66/1(-560%) | (4) Daisy Dukes 66/1, Foaled March 1. 58,000 gns Havana Grey filly. Sister to winner up to 6f Rocking Ends and half-sister to 11f-1¾m winner Copper Scape. The yard can ready one so this newcomer would enter the reckoning if the betting speaks for her. 58,0000gns sister to useful sprinter Rocking Ends; betting instructive on debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Things didn't pan out as hoped for MOLLIE FOSTER when she contested a Listed race at Deauville three weeks ago but she can get back on track with her sights lowered here. The daughter of Acclamation, who bettered her commendable second over this C&D on debut by landing a novice at Haydock last month, has plenty of scope for progression and tops the shortlist. Fellow previous winners Queen All Star and Sweet Sonata look the pick of the opposition.
There was plenty to like about the way QUEEN ALL STAR went about things at Windsor and she's preferred to fellow previous winner Mollie Foster. Empowered Queen ran green when seemingly fancied for her recent Lingfield debut and it wouldn't be a surprise to see her prove a different proposition now.
Mollie Foster and Sweet Sonata are respected but QUEEN ALL STAR looks open to the greater improvement.

1st (3) (9/2 -35%) Imperial Express |
9/2(-35%) | (3) Imperial Express 9/2, Winner at Ffos Las in July. Good fifth of 12 in handicap (12/1) at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 24 days ago and that was a deeper race than this one. Shortlisted. Won at Ffos Las last month but was well held off this revised mark last time; needs more. |

2nd (2) (9/2 -13%) Own Accord |
9/2(-13%) | (2) Own Accord 9/2, Didn't race until April but has quickly made up for lost time, recording win number 2 win at Wetherby in June. Fourth of 5 in handicap (2/1) at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, having run of race. Stamina for this trip isn't set in stone. Still unexposed but she's been disappointing since her two wins at Wetherby; bit to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (9/1 -13%) Asteverdi |
9/1(-13%) | (4) Asteverdi 9/1, Latest win at Sandown in June. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good to firm, 18/1) 24 days ago though she is back in calmer waters her trying a new trip. Clearcut win at Sandown and she had excuse on fast ground at Glorious Goodwood; dangerous. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (16/1 -300%) Yorkshire Lady |
16/1(-300%) | (1) Yorkshire Lady 16/1, Hurdles winner in February who made a sound return from 6 months off when third of 10 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 11 days ago. Shortlist material from the same mark. Won on hurdling debut in February and was close up back on Flat at Ayr recently; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (100/1 -1150%) Golden Melody |
100/1(-1150%) | (5) Golden Melody 100/1, Latest win at Carlisle in June. Good second of 10 in handicap (33/1) at Chester (10.3f, good to soft) 19 days ago, finishing well. Task is to now back that up (isn't the most consistent). Suited by good or slower ground and she had a near-miss at Chester latest; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (50/1 -456%) Blufferonthebus |
50/1(-456%) | (6) Blufferonthebus 50/1, Three wins from 11 runs this year. Latest win at Beverley in July. Fifth of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Back up in trip and assessor may just have her. Three wins this season but was disappointing last time and she needs to bounce back. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Several have possibilities but ASTEVERDI gets the vote ahead of Golden Melody and Yorkshire Lady.

Drop The Dip |
(1) (8/1 +20%)8/1(+20%) | (1) Drop The Dip 8/1, 20/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Galway (7f, soft) 20 days ago. Given a chance by the handicapper. Three-time winner last year including twice at Listowel, yet to hit form this campaign. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (15) (14/1 +30%) Spring Collection |
14/1(+30%) | (15) Spring Collection 14/1, Blinkered for 1st time, twelfth of 18 in handicap at Cork (8.9f, good to firm, 12/1) 7 days ago. Recorded three consecutive fourth placings before a below-par display at Cork last week. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (16) (17/2 -143%) Seas And Oceans |
17/2(-143%) | (16) Seas And Oceans 17/2, Good ¾-length second of 12 to Rock Etoile in handicap (12/1) at Dundalk (8f) 8 days ago. Player if getting a run. RESERVE. First reserve; has run over a range of trips, this looks almost ideal after Dundalk second. |

3rd (6) (9/1 +0%) Campari Soda |
9/1(+0%) | (6) Campari Soda 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to firm, 6/1) 7 days ago. Yard in good form. Visor on 1st time. Failed to improve in first-time blinkers on recent handicap debut, visored now instead. |

4th (13) (10/1 +0%) Thrifty Of Digby |
10/1(+0%) | (13) Thrifty Of Digby 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at Bellewstown (8f, good, 12/1) 50 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Did not seem to handle the track at Bellewstown, decent chance on her Limerick third. |

5th (12) (17/2 -31%) Skontonovski |
17/2(-31%) | (12) Skontonovski 17/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Fairyhouse in July. 7/1, respectable third of 17 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.2f, good to firm) 15 days ago, running on. Enters calculations. Heavily-raced winner of nine races, stayed on well over 7f at Leopardstown on latest. |

6th (9) (9/2 +18%) Rock Etoile |
9/2(+18%) | (9) Rock Etoile 9/2, C&D winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f, 11/2) 8 days ago by ¾ length from Seas And Oceans, driven out. Should remain competitive up 2 lb. Took advantage of a declining mark when winning at Dundalk last week, only 2lb higher. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (16/1 -60%) Feature This |
16/1(-60%) | (8) Feature This 16/1, Latest win at Leopardstown in May. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 15/2) 42 days ago, never nearer. Stable is in excellent form at the moment, not a bad run at Dundalk on latest. |

25/1(+38%) | (14) Lady Montse 25/1, First run since leaving Adrian Murray when eleventh of 14 in handicap (25/1) at Naas (8f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Was entitled to need her comeback run at Naas but very hard to make a case for her. |

10/1(+41%) | (3) Starting Monday 10/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. Ninth of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Cork (8f, good). Off 105 days. Best form has been on heavy ground, started the season brightly with Leopardstown second. |

13th (11) (14/1 -56%) Mark's One |
14/1(-56%) | (11) Mark's One 14/1, 33/1, below form fifteenth of 28 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) 6 days ago. Hard to fancy after running down the field the last twice, has managed two fourth placings. |

12/1(-9%) | (10) Eastern Capital 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, last of 16 in handicap at Gowran (7f, good) 68 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Weak form in maidens, ran no sort of race when last of 16 at Gowran in his first handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CAMPARI SODA is tried with a visor now and there looks to be a race in her off this kind of mark. She got a little bump when staying on at Cork last time and makes just her second handicap start now having been eased a couple of pounds for that performance. Rock Etoile is only a couple of pounds higher than when winning at Dundalk eight days ago and is a previous course and distance winner. He could run well for Sam Coen on his first racecourse outing. Skontonovski ran a solid race when third at Leopardstown last time and could reach the frame again.
CHURCH MOUNTAIN shaped quite well in a Naas race last time that looks solid form so he might prove the answer to the first division of this 1m handicap. Skontonovski has remained in form since his Fairyhouse win in July and is second choice ahead of former C&D scorer Chimeric.
Runner-up in a heat of this race last year and also a C&D winner, ROCK ETOILE can get young Sam Coen off to the best possible start

1st (6) (9/1 -13%) Ziggy's Phoenix |
9/1(-13%) | (6) Ziggy's Phoenix 9/1, Caused a 66/1 shock at Newmarket (1m) in May and posted a couple of sound efforts in defeat subsequently, including when second at Sandown in June. Easy to excuse her latest run at Ascot (caught behind weakening rival) and she's respected having back down towards last winning mark, On a feasible mark and not fully exposed at 1m; had excuses last time; can bounce back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (11/2 +31%) Faro Di Notte |
11/2(+31%) | (8) Faro Di Notte 11/2, Has ran to fair level on both starts since joining this yard, most recently when second of 8 in novice at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Step up to 1m should suit and she's not discounted on handicap debut. Potential improver upped to 1m and switched to handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (14/1 -133%) Crystal Casque |
14/1(-133%) | (1) Crystal Casque 14/1, Signed off last season by winning at Lingfield and turned in her best effort for a while from a reduced mark when runner-up in a 6-runner handicap at Sandown (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago. The only older horse in contest here but merits place claims again. Good second at Sandown last month but up against it conceding weight and age to her rivals. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (33/1 -450%) Mallavelly |
33/1(-450%) | (4) Mallavelly 33/1, Made the frame in a couple of Newmarket maidens and a Goodwood handicap in the spring but proved a disappointing favourite when down the field in a Newbury novice last month. Mark remains workable if able to bounce back. Below par last time but earlier efforts give her sound claims now returning to 1m. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (8/1 -33%) So Logical |
8/1(-33%) | (3) So Logical 8/1, Won 7f maiden and handicap in the spring but her improvement appears to have levelled off. First-time cheekpieces need to help her to resume her progression. Two 7f wins in the spring; progress stalled the last twice; new trip/headgear could help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (66/1 -560%) Dramatic Effect |
66/1(-560%) | (5) Dramatic Effect 66/1, Narrowly opened account in a novice event at Goodwood (8f) in June but just a respectable fifth of 7 in handicap at Newbury (8f) since and others look better treated. C&D win in June but only fifth in a Newbury fillies' handicap last month; needs a PB. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (25/1 -456%) Pasha |
25/1(-456%) | (2) Pasha 25/1, Made a decent start for this yard when fifth of 17 in hot maiden at Newbury on return in April and showed the benefit of her experience when winning a 9-runner maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 7/2) 10 days ago. Makes handicap debut under a penalty but she's open to progress. Had shown promise before recent front-running win at Nottingham; more needed under penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (100/1 -3900%) Imitate |
100/1(-3900%) | (7) Imitate 100/1, Left debut form well behind when sixth in a Bath maiden in May and took another step forward when filling the same spot at Yarmouth (8f, good to soft) 44 days ago. Very much the type to improve now handicapping. Bred to be smart and looks a likely improver now handicapping; betting can guide. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
PASHA emerged as the ready winer of a fillies maiden at Nottingham last week and, turned out under a 6lb penalty, the daughter of Advertise is an obvious candidate to follow up. Imitate represents powerful connections and is an appealing alternative to the selection on her handicap debut. Dramatic Effect, a C&D winner in June, is another notable contender given this represents a drop in class for her, while Crystal Casque is also considered.
A competitive fillies' event, with the Sir Michael Stoute-trained handicap newcomer IMITATE given the nod having progressed with each qualifying run. Crystal Casque is thrice the age of her opposition but proved herself back on a fair mark when second at Sandown last time and she's also shortlisted, with another handicap newcomer Pasha also respected.
Imitate and Faro Di Notte can improve but MALLAVELLY can bounce back from her low-key effort last month.

1st (8) (13/8 +19%) Native Speaker |
13/8(+19%) | (8) Native Speaker 13/8, Fairly useful hurdler. 11/8, good third of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (24.4f, good) 28 days ago. The one to beat. Only just behind Magellan Strait here last month and has an 8lb pull; could be enough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7/2 +13%) Magellan Strait |
7/2(+13%) | (1) Magellan Strait 7/2, Useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. Useful winner at 17f on Flat. Second of 15 in novice hurdle (3/1) at this course (24.4f, good) 28 days ago, going in snatches. Should be a factor at this level. Jumping cost him in a C&D maiden hurdle last month; reproduction might be good enough. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (10/3 -21%) Uncle Pat |
10/3(-21%) | (2) Uncle Pat 10/3, Promising individual. Bumper winner who was fifth of 18 in novice hurdle at Galway (21f, good to soft, 9/2) 23 days ago. Scopey sort who is sure to improve for top yard. Longer trip and the forecast rain should suit; decent claims despite the weight concession. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (66/1 -230%) Western Ability |
66/1(-230%) | (10) Western Ability 66/1, Maiden pointer. 11/1, fifth of 11 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Improved up to 2m6f at Downpatrick last twice but not enough to land this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (14/1 +30%) Ashdale Flyer |
14/1(+30%) | (12) Ashdale Flyer 14/1, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 8 hurdle runs. Eleventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, good to soft, 33/1) 49 days ago. Up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has not matched her best of late; up to 3m with cheekpieces tried but others preferred. |

6th (3) (100/1 -203%) Coole Cottage |
100/1(-203%) | (3) Coole Cottage 100/1, Valirann gelding. Dam, maiden pointer, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2½m) Flying Spirit. Runner-up on the third of his three point-to-points in May; best watched on track debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (66/1 -313%) Practice Run |
66/1(-313%) | (9) Practice Run 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. 9/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 41 days ago, dropping away before 4 out. Won his only point-to-point but his two efforts on the track have been quite underwhelming. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (14) (22/1 +12%) Milanaway |
22/1(+12%) | (14) Milanaway 22/1, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 7 hurdle runs. 16/1, possibly amiss when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.3f, good) 75 days ago, behind when pulled up before last. Below par effort switched to a handicap at Punchestown in June but capable of a bold show. |

|PU| (6) (12/1 -100%) Irina's Path |
12/1(-100%) | (6) Irina's Path 12/1, Fair hurdler. Good second of 15 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (20.2f, soft, 13/2) 17 days ago, running on. Up in trip. Ran well over 2m4f at Roscommon; up to 3m here and certainly respected if he stays. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (33/1 -32%) Deise Bhoy |
33/1(-32%) | (4) Deise Bhoy 33/1, Modest hurdler. Blinkered for 1st time, good fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Wexford (24f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Close fourth in a 3m handicap hurdle at Wexford last month; more needed here. |

66/1(-164%) | (7) Manlikemike 66/1, Winning pointer. 12/1, fifth of 14 in bumper at Wexford (16.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 29 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Significantly up in trip. Straight over hurdles and up in trip; others make more appeal but worth watching. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (400/1 -300%) Flaxfield |
400/1(-300%) | (5) Flaxfield 400/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. First run since leaving Nigel Slevin when ninth of 11 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good, 100/1) on hurdles bow 12 days ago. Off for two years, no show on his stable debut at Downpatrick two weeks ago; no appeal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (15) (400/1 -300%) Pure Design |
400/1(-300%) | (15) Pure Design 400/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 150/1, eighth of 10 in novice hurdle at Sligo (20.5f, soft) on hurdles bow 15 days ago. Up in trip. Beaten a long way in a bumper and a maiden hurdle; hard to give a chance to. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (16) (400/1 -300%) Spricklestown |
400/1(-300%) | (16) Spricklestown 400/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. 150/1, tenth of 11 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (21.8f, good) on hurdles bow 12 days ago. Beaten out of sight over hurdles at Downpatrick latest; others much more appealing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (13) (500/1 -150%) Eabha Rose |
500/1(-150%) | (13) Eabha Rose 500/1, 250/1, fifteenth of 16 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (15.4f, soft) 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Very modest mare on all known form; cheekpieces will need to have a transformative effect. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Not much to choose between Magellan Strait and NATIVE SPEAKER here last time, but the latter might turn tables with an 8lb pull

Dam, 1¼m winner, sister to St Leger and Irish Derby winner Capri. Interesting newcomer. Debut; half-brother to yard's Fillies' Mile winner Commissioning; could play leading role. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (11/8 -10%) The Reverend |
11/8(-10%) | (2) The Reverend 11/8, Overcame inexperience when winning 10-runner novice at Newmarket (7f, soft) on sole start at 2 yrs and similar form when chasing home a similarly useful sort under a penalty on return to action at Thirsk (1m) last month. Sets the standard. A win (7f) and a creditable second (1m) from first two starts; bred to stay this far. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (150/1 -275%) Wendrock |
150/1(-275%) | (7) Wendrock 150/1, €5,000 2-y-o, Manduro gelding. Closely related to French 15f winner Montalte, also won over hurdles. Dam French 1¼m/10.5f winner. 5,000euros 2yo; closely related to French Flat/hurdle winner; may be best watched on debut. |

Closely related to useful 2-y-o 5.5f/6.5f winner Sonjeu and half-sister to 5f-14.5f winner Born To Be Alive and 1½m winner Alcander. 12/1, fourth of 12 in maiden at Bellewstown (12.2f, good) on debut 49 days ago, not knocked about. Has left Joseph Patrick O'Brien. 11l fourth in hot maiden at Bellewstown on debut; possible improver on stable debut. |

6th (3) (100/1 -900%) Izzari |
100/1(-900%) | (3) Izzari 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. 2/1, third of 4 in maiden at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 55 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Sold from Joseph Patrick O'Brien 11,500 gns in July. Showed ability on both starts in Ireland but improvement is needed on stable debut. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
The Reverend was not disgraced when second on his belated seasonal return at Thirsk last month and cannot be discounted. That said, he may struggle to give 6lb to SUGAR ROAD, who improved on his debut effort at Southwell last time and Andrew Balding's colt may have more improvement left to come. Military Academy is a half-brother to a Group 1 winner and any market support for him would have to be noted.
SUGAR ROAD improved on debut form when third at Southwell and can be expected to do better again as he continues to gain experience. He shades the vote over penalised-winner The Reverend. Military Academy is a newcomer to note being a half-brother to connections' Fillies' Mile winner Commissioning.
Preference is for SUGAR ROAD, who was a good third at Southwell on his second start and is taken to get off the mark.

1st (9) (17/2 -240%) Nibras Rainbow |
17/2(-240%) | (9) Nibras Rainbow 17/2, Twenty one runs since last win in 2022. 40/1, creditable fourth of 28 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) 6 days ago, running on. Merits consideration on the back of that eye-catching run. Showed signs of a return to form when dead-heating for fourth in a 28-runner Curragh event. |

4/1(+20%) | (2) Speckled Meadow 4/1, Latest win at Leopardstown in April. 7/1, good second of 17 in handicap at Galway (8.6f, good to soft) 24 days ago. In top form at present so a bold bid looks assured. Some easing of the ground would help but has excellent chance based on Galway second. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (15/2 -114%) Asisaid |
15/2(-114%) | (6) Asisaid 15/2, 9/2, below form fifth of 14 in handicap at Naas (8f, good to soft) 30 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces back on. Suited by plenty of cut in the ground, slow starts have proved detrimental this term. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (7/2 +36%) Bear Profit |
7/2(+36%) | (1) Bear Profit 7/2, Latest win at Leopardstown in June. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good to soft, 3/1) 32 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Drops in class. Twice a beaten favourite since Leopardstown win in June, perhaps a little risky. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (12/1 -20%) Saith Seren |
12/1(-20%) | (11) Saith Seren 12/1, Good fifth of 12 in handicap (50/1) at Galway (8.3f, soft) 19 days ago. Modest form in maidens, encouraging start to life in handicaps when fifth at Galway. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (16) (11/1 +67%) Private Officer |
11/1(+67%) | (16) Private Officer 11/1, Respectable sixth of 17 in handicap (25/1) at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft) 81 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Difficult ask. RESERVE. Reserve, placed twice in small-field handicaps, needs to improve in first-time cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (20/1 +0%) Wrist Art |
20/1(+0%) | (4) Wrist Art 20/1, Twelfth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 16/1) 43 days ago. Should strip fitter with that under his belt. Won twice last autumn when the stable was in flying form, posed no threat on reappearance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (22/1 +21%) Relevant Range |
22/1(+21%) | (7) Relevant Range 22/1, Eleven runs since sole win in 2023. Eleventh of 14 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good, 17/2) 82 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Weak form over hurdles before finishing down the field on return to Flat action in June. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (12/1 -9%) Purring Along |
12/1(-9%) | (13) Purring Along 12/1, Creditable third of 14 in handicap (7/2) at Naas (8f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Both 2023 wins were over 7f on soft, favourite when third over 1m at Naas last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (15) (20/1 +0%) Well Suited |
20/1(+0%) | (15) Well Suited 20/1, Three wins from 63 Flat runs. Forty four runs since last win in 2021. Fifteenth of 18 in handicap (50/1) at Cork (8.9f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Three AW wins, 0-31 record on turf is off-putting, down the field at Cork on latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (8/1 -60%) Blue Poppy |
8/1(-60%) | (8) Blue Poppy 8/1, 11/1, seventh of 14 in maiden at Roscommon (7.4f, good to firm) 52 days ago. Cheekpieces on for handicap debut and surely has more to come. Makes handicap debut, dam was useful and well-related, has potential for improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (14) (8/1 -14%) Swiss Army Officer |
8/1(-14%) | (14) Swiss Army Officer 8/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 7/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (8.2f, good) 37 days ago. Hard to win with, unplaced on both outings since third over 7f at Tipperary in May. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SPECKLED MEADOW has been knocking on the door and may be able to bag another win here. The Footstepsinthesand mare chased home Clear Quartz in a competitive contest at Galway on her last outing and off just a pound higher mark she is capable of winning a race of this standard. Ger O'Leary has his string in fine form and Bear Profit has to be respected under top-weight. The Profitable gelding won at Leopardstown in June and has run a couple of solid races since. Purring Along was well backed when third behind easy winner Selective Power at Naas last time and she's another to consider.
Given her pedigree and connections, BLUE POPPY surely has a bigger effort in her and now she goes handicapping with headgear on, a leap forward may well be forthcoming. Speckled Meadow is the solid option, with Asisaid also of some interest.
Runner-up at the Galway festival, SPECKLED MEADOW can add to the win achieved early in the season at Leopardstown.

1st (4) (5/2 +17%) Crystal Flyer |
5/2(+17%) | (4) Crystal Flyer 5/2, Course winner (9.9f) in May who found further improvement when good second of 9 in handicap at Ascot (12f, good) 42 days ago, running on. Warrants respect. Unexposed 3yo who was good second when upped to 1m4f at Ascot latest; respected. |

2nd (1) (8/1 -78%) Entrancement |
8/1(-78%) | (1) Entrancement 8/1, Course winner last term and almost added to that success when narrow second over C&D in May. Far from disgraced at Newbury since and is not out of things. Went very close over C&D on penultimate run and has claims if she can recapture that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/1 -80%) Therapist |
9/1(-80%) | (3) Therapist 9/1, Won 10f handicap for Andrew Balding last summer and has run well over hurdles for new yard this term, winning 2 of 3 her 3 starts. Fairly treated, back on Flat. and could be a player. Two wins over hurdles in May and she needs a close look on this return to the Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (80/1 -789%) Dubai Crystal |
80/1(-789%) | (2) Dubai Crystal 80/1, Off the mark in Redcar novice for Karl Burke in April 2023 and good efforts in handicaps after, but yet to make an impact in a couple of starts for new connections this year, albeit she was out of her depth at Newmarker last time. Tough task in Listed race latest but she still has something to prove back in a handicap. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (100/1 -3900%) Kate The Cook |
100/1(-3900%) | (6) Kate The Cook 100/1, Upped her game when taking 5-runner maiden at Ffos Las (12f, good to firm) 24 days ago and likely has more to offer on handicap debut here. Landed the odds at Ffos Las and she's open to more progress now switched to a handicap. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
KATE THE COOK appeared to relish the step up to this trip when scoring gamely at Ffos Las last month, pulling clear with the runner-up. Now making her handicap debut off what looks a workable mark, she gets the vote to land the spoils for the in-form Ralph Beckett team. Crystal Flyer found only one rival too good when second over 1m4f at Ascot when last seen and she should be on the premises once more nudged up just 1lb. D Day Arvalenreeva is also a key player.
D DAY ARVALENREEVA has come close on both her starts this term and remains fairly treated. She makes plenty of appeal. Kate The Cook and Crystal Flyer look the likeliest dangers.
Preference is for KATE THE COOK (nap) who is on the upgrade and she can continue to progress now handicapping.

Tongue strap on 1st time. Has good chance. Steps up in trip and tried in a tongue-tie on debut for a new stable; interesting runner. |

2nd (9) (9/1 -64%) Kadys Dirha |
9/1(-64%) | (9) Kadys Dirha 9/1, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs. 14/1, good 2½ lengths second of 16 to Le Grand Vert in handicap chase at Roscommon (25f, soft) 17 days ago, staying on well. Looks competitive on form. Divided Le Grand Vert and Ballydangan over this trip at Roscommon latest; should go well. |

3rd (8) (9/1 +18%) Smitty Bacall |
9/1(+18%) | (8) Smitty Bacall 9/1, Latest win in hurdle at Roscommon in July. 20/1, very good third of 12 in handicap chase at Tramore (22f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Can make presence felt. Inconsistent; third in a Tramore handicap chase last Sunday; hard to know what to expect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (4/1 -60%) Le Grand Vert |
4/1(-60%) | (3) Le Grand Vert 4/1, First run since leaving Micky Hammond when won 16-runner handicap chase (7/1) at Roscommon (25f, soft) 17 days ago by 2½ lengths from Kadys Dirha, kept up to work. Another bold show likely. Up 7lb for Roscommon but every chance that he has enough improvement in him to follow up. |

5th (7) (16/1 -100%) Singing Banjo |
16/1(-100%) | (7) Singing Banjo 16/1, Didn't need to be at best when winning 14-runner minor event chase (28/1) at Punchestown (33f, good to soft) 113 days ago, keeping on gamely. Down in trip. La Touche winner a totally different horse in cross-country chases; others preferred here. |

16/1(+27%) | (14) Rudy Catrail 16/1, 28/1, eighth of 15 in handicap chase at Killarney (23f, good) 35 days ago. Well beaten on his sole start this year here last month; hard to discount completely. |

10/1(-100%) | (5) Ballydangan 10/1, 10/1, good 4¼ lengths third of 16 to Le Grand Vert in handicap chase at Roscommon (25f, soft) 17 days ago. Merits consideration. Good third to two of these at Roscommon; up 1lb but could be going the right way. |

20/1(-43%) | (2) On The Tide 20/1, 125/1, fifth of 9 in novice chase at Wexford (16f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap chase debut. Not entirely disgraced in a Wexford beginners chase last month; high enough rating. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Le Grand Vert, KADYS DIRHA and Ballydangan filled the first three places over this trip at Roscommon earlier this month and it may pay to concentrate on that piece of form. The winner was having his first start for current connections and could progress further, but Kadys Dirha gets the nod having come from well off the pace. Joe's Turn won both point-to-point starts for Richie Rath and has joined Mark McNiff following a promising third over 2m4f here on his chase debut under Rules. Singing Banjo has enjoyed his finest hours over the banks at Punchestown and the veteran comes here after landing the La Touche for the second time this year.
Dual-point winner JOE'S TURN made a decent start to his chase career when third here last month and gets the vote on his first start for an in-form yard. Le Grand Vert was a cosy winner starting out for this yard at Roscommon and is the obvious threat, though Kadys Dirha and Ballydangan are weighted to finish a bit closer.
One that could be ahead of the game is LE GRAND VERT (nap), who can confirm Roscommon form with Kadys Dirha and Ballydangan

Belgoprince |
(15) (20/1 -82%)20/1(-82%) | (15) Belgoprince 20/1, 7/2, good third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.7f, good to soft) 14 days ago, faring best of those held up. Back down in trip. Fairly useful on the Flat, creditable on last Flat run. Had an excuse in June on latest Flat start and ran well over hurdles last time; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Two Brothers |
(8) (25/1 -79%)25/1(-79%) | (8) Two Brothers 25/1, Won 3 times last season and posted a career-best display when winning 14-runner Thirsk handicap (12f, heavy) in April. Below par since but has good record in the mud. Well beaten the last twice but the return to a slow surface is in his favour. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (3) (4/1 +27%) La Yakel |
4/1(+27%) | (3) La Yakel 4/1, Low-mileage sort who continued theme of steady progress last year, winning 5-runner Doncaster handicap (1¼m) prior to a good second at York (1¼m, soft) in October. Shaped well after 9 months off when sixth of 13 in handicap at Ascot (12f) 41 days ago, left poorly placed. Remains of interest. Respectable 6th on return; could build on that now back on a slow surface; in calculations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (12) (16/1 -33%) Faylaq |
16/1(-33%) | (12) Faylaq 16/1, Unreliable type. 7/2, ended long losing run in 10-runner handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 11 days ago, always holding on. Not an obvious one to follow up under a penalty. Ended long losing sequence at Ayr recently and has run well in this previously; e-w claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (100/1 -1233%) The Goat |
100/1(-1233%) | (6) The Goat 100/1, Won a Glorious Goodwood handicap last summer and back to best on AW this summer, scoring over this trip at Kempton. Not so good at Ascot since but ground might have been too fast for him. Worth another chance. In good form on AW earlier this summer and good ground may have been too lively last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (50/1 -669%) Toll Stone |
50/1(-669%) | (14) Toll Stone 50/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner. Similar form on Flat, landing a gamble at Galway in August. Not in same form there following day but expected to bounce back. Won at Galway festival three weeks ago; subsequent run maybe came too soon (one day later). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (40/1 -344%) Mr Alan |
40/1(-344%) | (5) Mr Alan 40/1, Nottingham winner in a light 2023 campaign. Has shaped as if in better form than the bare result might suggest in 3 runs this year and of interest with conditions a plus. Fair fourth at Ripon last month and today's slower ground should be right up his street. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (100/1 -456%) Loyal Touch |
100/1(-456%) | (10) Loyal Touch 100/1, Scored at Chester in June. Also a creditable fifth at Newcastle later that month but has recorded 4 below-par efforts since. Soft-ground win in June but better could have been expected on his last few starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (100/1 -203%) Surrey Mist |
100/1(-203%) | (4) Surrey Mist 100/1, Won twice on joining this yard as a 3-y-o, including an AW listed race in France. Ran well back in a handicap considering he'd been keener than ideal sixth of 15 in handicap at York (11.8f, good to firm) 15 months ago but off since. Creditable sixth of 15 in York handicap last May but absent since and may be best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (100/1 -614%) Postileo |
100/1(-614%) | (1) Postileo 100/1, Won twice here last season, including this race off 5 lb lower for Roger Varian. However, not the easiest to assess for current yard at present. Won this last year; hasn't really shone for current yard but a market check is advised. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (28/1 -211%) Flash Bardot |
28/1(-211%) | (9) Flash Bardot 28/1, Good record in the mud, successful on return in fillies' handicap at Doncaster in April. Not so good since but could bounce back with ground in her favour. Below par on last three starts but this week's rain has been in her favour. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (100/1 -1438%) Theory Of Tides |
100/1(-1438%) | (11) Theory Of Tides 100/1, Galileo colt who has looked good prospect when winning first 2 starts in novice events, latterly when defying a penalty at Yarmouth (11.5f). Well held in Group 2 at Royal Ascot since but still early days and starts life in handicaps off a workable mark. Headgear on. 2-2 prior to heavy Royal Ascot defeat; retains potential for top yard on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (80/1 -471%) Capital Theory |
80/1(-471%) | (7) Capital Theory 80/1, Course winner. Latest win here in May. However, failed to beat a rival last 2 starts and headgear now applied. Won here in May but well beaten the last twice; major turnaround needed in cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (80/1 -142%) Geremia |
80/1(-142%) | (13) Geremia 80/1, Tends to give himself a lot to do with slow starts but he struck at the second time of asking for this yard over 1½m at Hamilton in May. Respectable sixth back there next time but needs to shrug off a poor run at Thirsk. Two-time course winner but well beaten last time and slow starts can be an issue. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (66/1 -200%) L'astronome |
66/1(-200%) | (2) L'astronome 66/1, Smart performer in France but proving hard to place, not least because he seems some way removed from his best at the minute, well beaten in the Ormonde Stakes at Chester (13.4f, good, 40/1) 106 days ago. Back in a handicap but risky. French Group 2 winner in May 2022 but a return to form is needed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
LA YAKEL will be sharper for a comeback run at Ascot and the ground has turned in his favour. A winner on soft ground at Doncaster last autumn, William Haggas' five-year-old has strong claims if back to his best. Mr Alan will also appreciate the underfoot conditions and looks a threat off his current rating, while dual novice winner Theory Of Tides struggled in Group 2 company at Ascot in June, but could feature at this level making his handicap debut. Last year's winner Postileo is 5lb higher but may go well again.
Low-mileage 5-y-o LA YAKEL made an eye-catching return at Ascot 6 weeks ago and this progressive type remains of strong interest off his current mark. Theory of Tides is the only 3--y-o in the field and could well resume progress on handicap bow having found a Group 2 at Royal Ascot too tough, while Mr Alan is in better form than this season's figures suggest and will appreciate the softer ground.
This could go to MR ALAN, who ran pretty well on good going at Ripon last time and can build on that now back on slow ground.

9/2(-29%) | (5) Lot Of Joy 9/2, Below form ninth of 20 in handicap at Galway (16.8f, good to soft, 4/1) 25 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Fair to say she's been an under-achiever; well held at Galway, Curragh third was good run. |

4th (12) (14/1 -56%) Zoffanien |

First run since leaving Denis Hogan when good third of 17 in handicap at Galway (16.5f, good to soft, 14/1) 23 days ago, never nearer. Can make his presence felt. Useful hurdler was third in 2m Flat h'cap at Galway; that was a good start for new stable. |

5th (11) (5/1 +62%) Man O Work |
5/1(+62%) | (11) Man O Work 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Seventh of 15 in handicap hurdle (11/1) at Galway (16f, soft) 21 days ago. Makes handicap debut and much respected. Very capable handicap hurdler was second in 1m4f maiden in May; respected on handicap bow. |

6th (6) (13/2 -44%) Intellotto |
13/2(-44%) | (6) Intellotto 13/2, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Sligo in May. Ninth of 11 in handicap (6/4) at Wolverhampton (14f) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Smart hurdler was just behind Lot Of Joy over 1m4f at the Curragh; poor run on AW since. |

7th (7) (10/1 +17%) La Dame Blanche |
10/1(+17%) | (7) La Dame Blanche 10/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Fair fourth of 7 in handicap at Sligo (10.5f, soft, 4/1) 16 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Can give a good account. Has had a good summer with victories over 1m4f/1m5f; might be high enough in ratings now. |

8th (2) (9/2 +10%) Taipan |
9/2(+10%) | (2) Taipan 9/2, C&D winner who made light of a 14-month absence when landing 7-runner minor event at Galway (14.1f, soft) 21 days ago, always holding on. Player back in handicap company. C&D winner has been doing well in conditions events; may be vulnerable off this mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (17/2 +39%) Golden Twilight |
17/2(+39%) | (9) Golden Twilight 17/2, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Last of 9 in handicap (16/1) at Dundalk (10.7f) 8 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Visor on 1st time. Not been in great form since joining this yard; four of five wins on AW but handles turf. |

Difficult ask. Limerick maiden winner ran poorly on handicap debut; gelded since and cheekpieces added. |

22/1(-57%) | (3) The Very Man 22/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap hurdle (15/2) at this course (22.8f, good) 35 days ago. Down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Useful on the Flat so can't be discounted. Capable dual-purpose veteran has been below-par since good hurdles run in the spring. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MAN O WORK is interesting here on his first start in handicap company on the Flat. The Workforce gelding didn't run too badly when staying on in a competitive contest over timber at Galway on his last outing and had run well in a Tipperary maiden on the level back in May. He doesn't look badly treated off a mark of 79 now. Lot of Joy weakened tamely enough when favourite for the big amateur handicap at Galway but had run really well at the Curragh previously and has to be respected. The admirable Taipan won well on his return at Ballybrit but may be vulnerable to a better handicapped rival.
TAIPAN resumed in style from a long absence when going in at Galway and looks the way to go returned to handicap company here. La Dame Blanche could emerge as the main danger in her bid for a third win win of 2024 ahead of handicap debutant Man O Work.
Having been gelded since disappointing on h'cap debut at Galway, a chance is taken with CRUDEN who has always been held in high regard

1st (5) (7/2 +50%) Kiss And Run |
7/2(+50%) | (5) Kiss And Run 7/2, Off mark for the year at Windsor in June but not been in quite same form since, albeit she was 5 lb out of the weights here last time. Others more persuasive, This more suitable than last time and she was successful in her last Class 5 run; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (7/2 +61%) Cluedo |
7/2(+61%) | (2) Cluedo 7/2, Dual scorer last term but is yet to make an impact in a couple of starts this season. Drops in grade here, however, and is now just 3 lb above her last winning mark. Had wind operation. Progressive sprinter at 3; not fired this year but yard going better now and had a wind op. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (66/1 -3200%) Miss Anya |
66/1(-3200%) | (1) Miss Anya 66/1, Dual winner earlier this year who returned to form, in first-time blinkers, when good second of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) 20 days ago. Likely contender. Both wins on AW but effective on fast turf and comes here on the back of a career-best. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (22/1 -780%) Four Adaay |
22/1(-780%) | (6) Four Adaay 22/1, C&D winner who posted a season's best when second of 5 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, good) 15 days ago. Remains fairly treated and holds solid claims. Running creditably without being at best this summer; more minor money may be best hope. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (9/1 -50%) Merrimack |
9/1(-50%) | (3) Merrimack 9/1, Front runner much improved for new yard in visor, easily making all in Brighton/Yarmouth handicaps last month. Returned to form when third at Epsom latest but others look better treated. Two front-running wins last month; handicapper may have caught up for now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (40/1 -567%) The Defiant |
40/1(-567%) | (7) The Defiant 40/1, Been given a chance by the assessor and has run creditably in defeat the last twice, latest when second of 5 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Enters calculations. Has run well over C&D in the past and comes here on the back of two placed runs; e-w shout. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (100/1 -525%) Mary Of Modena |
100/1(-525%) | (4) Mary Of Modena 100/1, Made an encouraging return at Windsor in April but rather gone backwards in a couple of starts since and makes limited appeal. Close fourth in this race last year but she's finished out the back in her last two runs. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Richard Hughes has his string in fine form at present and his MISS ANYA edges preference. She was sporting blinkers for the first time (retained) when finishing runner-up over this trip at Newmarket recently and, nudged up 1lb, another bold showing should be forthcoming. Cluedo catches the eye off just 3lb higher than her last winning mark and, on her first start since wind surgery, she is respected most of the remainder. Four Adaay completes the shortlist on the back of a solid runner-up effort at Yarmouth earlier this month.
Preference is for MISS ANYA, who got back on track at Newmarket earlier this month and remains feasibly treated. Four Adaay and The Defiant should also go well in an open-looking contest.
A wind op since she was last in action could see CLUEDO bounce back to form. Kiss And Run is feared most.

1st (13) (12/1 -85%) Invictus Machin |
12/1(-85%) | (13) Invictus Machin 12/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Limerick (25.5f, good, 5/2) 92 days ago. Well worth monitoring in the betting back from a break. Let down by his jumping; off since a poor effort at Limerick in May and best watched. |

2nd (7) (7/1 +30%) Sphagnum |
7/1(+30%) | (7) Sphagnum 7/1, Latest win in chase at Wexford in July. Bit below form eighth of 20 in handicap chase (14/1) at Galway (22.5f, soft) 21 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Won over this trip at Wexford; down 1lb after down the field finish in the Galway Blazers. |

3rd (6) (14/1 -75%) Macgiloney |
14/1(-75%) | (6) Macgiloney 14/1, Temperamental sort. 10/1, second of 4 in minor event hurdle at this course (25f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back to form in a 3m1f conditions here last time; should go well if the ground stays good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7/2 -9%) The Short Go |
7/2(-9%) | (5) The Short Go 7/2, Two wins from 3 runs last season. Creditable third of 12 in handicap chase at Wexford (19.5f, good to soft, 3/1) 41 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Looks the one to beat. Still unexposed over fences; stepping back up in trip will suit and one for the shortlist. |

5th (12) (10/1 +0%) Menindee |
10/1(+0%) | (12) Menindee 10/1, Course winner. Three wins from 8 runs last season. Bit below form fourth of 16 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Roscommon (24f, soft) 17 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. C&D winner last year and should acquit herself well on her return to chasing. |

11/1(-10%) | (1) Streets Of Doyen 11/1, 25/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (22.8f, good) 35 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Stable bang in form and this seven-time winner cannot be dismissed back over fences. |

7th (9) (12/1 -71%) A Wave Of The Sea |
12/1(-71%) | (9) A Wave Of The Sea 12/1, Course winner. First run since leaving Ben Haslam when sixth of 7 in handicap chase at this course (20.2f, good to soft, 11/4) 13 days ago. Back up in trip. Chance if rediscovering old form. Not the horse he was but Mark Walsh has kept faith and down to a very competitive mark now. |

8th (8) (40/1 -60%) Freewheelin Dylan |
40/1(-60%) | (8) Freewheelin Dylan 40/1, 3-time C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Visored for 1st time, brought down in handicap chase (40/1) at Wexford (25.3f, good to soft) 16 days ago. 2021 Irish National winner brought down a long way out at Wexford; best watched. |

|U| (14) (22/1 -10%) Goodnightngodbless |
22/1(-10%) | (14) Goodnightngodbless 22/1, Unreliable type. Latest win in chase at Down Royal in May. 25/1, respectable sixth of 15 in handicap chase at Wexford (25.3f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Out of form since beating Sweet Will at Down Royal in May and can only be watched. |

|PU| (10) (8/1 +11%) Donacheady Gale |
8/1(+11%) | (10) Donacheady Gale 8/1, Last of 10 in handicap hurdle (9/1) at Killarney (22.8f, good) 35 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Others make more appeal. Never involved last time; ground versatile, runs well here and easy to see him in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (13/2 -30%) Paidi's Passion |
13/2(-30%) | (4) Paidi's Passion 13/2, Three wins from 10 runs last season. Latest win in chase at Roscommon in June. Respectable sixth of 20 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, soft, 16/1) 21 days ago. Not ruled out. Not disgraced under his penalty last twice for Roscommon win; should hold his own. |

|PU| (3) (14/1 -40%) Hascoeur Clermont |
14/1(-40%) | (3) Hascoeur Clermont 14/1, 12/1, below form thirteenth of 20 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, soft) 21 days ago. Good second to Paidi's Passion at Roscommon and definitely comes into it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (22/1 -83%) Motown Maggie |
22/1(-83%) | (2) Motown Maggie 22/1, Brought down in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, soft, 40/1) 21 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. A bit disappointing since Navan; brought down early in the Galway Blazers; more needed. |

|PU| (11) (33/1 -267%) Sweet Will |
33/1(-267%) | (11) Sweet Will 33/1, Course winner. 80/1, first run since leaving Emmet Mullins when fifteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Galway (22.5f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Well beaten on his stable debut over hurdles at Galway last time; others preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
THE SHORT GO made a successful switch to fences over three miles at Clonmel last autumn and after reappearing over hurdles, again advertised his chance on just his second chase start when third to Railway Hurricane over probably an inadequate 2m3f at Wexford last month. Menindee's five wins include a handicap chase over a similar trip here last summer and the David Christie-trained mare reverts to fences after a couple of recent hurdle outings. Macgiloney's 11 career victories include a bumper and 3m1f hurdle at this venue and he was also second to the odds-on Run For Oscar here last time.
THE SHORT GO is enjoying a productive season and arrives on the back of a solid effort at Wexford, so he's fancied to get back to winning ways up in trip. Invictus Machin is a danger if strong in the betting and Paidi's Passion should give another good account.
The selection though is THE SHORT GO, still very unexposed over fences but won over 3m at Clonmel and will appreciate this trip

1st (8) (11/2 -120%) Moonstone Boy |
11/2(-120%) | (8) Moonstone Boy 11/2, Gained his first win on turf in 5-runner apprentice handicap at this C&D (good) 10 days ago, despite being slowly away. Escapes a penalty here so big shout. Unpenalised for an easy C&D win (soft) ten days ago; 7lb well in; obvious claims. |

2nd (1) (9/1 -50%) Changeofmind |
9/1(-50%) | (1) Changeofmind 9/1, 12/1, below form sixth of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 68 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Latest 6th came in a red-hot sprint at Thirsk; down 2lb and not fully exposed; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (3/1 +14%) Mythical Phoenix |
3/1(+14%) | (2) Mythical Phoenix 3/1, Good second of 11 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good to firm, 10/3) 39 days ago. Not taken lightly. Runner-up in all five runs for this yard (6f); quick enough for the drop in trip; chance. |

4th (3) (18/1 -80%) Digital |
18/1(-80%) | (3) Digital 18/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in July. Solid fifth of 6 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 17/2) 20 days ago so needs considering. This year's best efforts have come over C&D; each-way shout once again. |

5th (7) (100/1 -1567%) Count D'orsay |
100/1(-1567%) | (7) Count D'orsay 100/1, 4/1, won 9-runner handicap at Chester (5.1f, good) 27 days ago. Up 4 lb but this C&D winner is well in the mix. C&D winner; slow ground ideal and comes here on the back of cosy Chester win; good claims. |

6th (4) (33/1 -136%) Be Proud |
33/1(-136%) | (4) Be Proud 33/1, Latest win at Ayr in June. Fair fifth of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 6 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Ayr win (6f, good to firm) in June; held his form since; others preferred for win purposes. |

7th (6) (80/1 -900%) Reigning Profit |

8th (5) (10/1 +17%) Elegant Erin |
10/1(+17%) | (5) Elegant Erin 10/1, Latest win at Newcastle in June. Tenth of 18 in handicap (16/1) at York (6f, good to soft) 41 days ago, not ideally placed. Possibilities. Draw did for her at York latest; earlier AW win was convincing; high on the list. |

9th (9) (80/1 -700%) Classy Al |
80/1(-700%) | (9) Classy Al 80/1, Latest win at Ayr in May. 9/4, creditable third of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago, running on. Tricky customer though. Saw no daylight at Musselburgh last time; talented enough for this grade but others safer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Count D'Orsay is high on the list but ELEGANT ERIN was stuffed by the draw at York last time and her earlier AW win was decisive.

1st (1) (9/4 -200%) Jabbar |
9/4(-200%) | (1) Jabbar 9/4, Course winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. 3/1, respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Down Royal (13f, good) 35 days ago, left with too much to do. Ought to be thereabouts. Kept on well over a furlong shorter last time so should get the trip, jockey a big plus. |

2nd (11) (5/1 +71%) Say It So |
5/1(+71%) | (11) Say It So 5/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, won 16-runner handicap hurdle at Cork (18.4f, good to soft, 6/1) 18 days ago. Blinkers/tongue strap back on and very much one to consider. Quirky sort needs plenty of kidding and got fine ride when winning over hurdles at Cork. |

3rd (5) (6/1 +33%) Polemon |
6/1(+33%) | (5) Polemon 6/1, First run since leaving Archie Watson when bagging 14-runner handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good) 9 days ago, just holding on. Needs considering. Immediate return for new connections in 9.5f Gowran handicap nine days ago; trip a concern. |

4th (9) (5/2 +44%) Elsa's Pride |
5/2(+44%) | (9) Elsa's Pride 5/2, Good third of 12 in handicap at this course (11.5f, good, 11/2) 37 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Merits serious consideration now stepping up in trip. Consistent in defeat since winning at a big price over 1m4f last term; tongue-tie may help. |

5th (7) (10/1 +60%) Simpson's Paradox |
10/1(+60%) | (7) Simpson's Paradox 10/1, Course winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 7 in handicap at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good to soft, 16/1) 32 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Visor on 1st time. Something to find on form. Held on first two starts for yard, over 1m2f last time; hasn't gone further than that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (7/2 +50%) Robbies Rock |
7/2(+50%) | (8) Robbies Rock 7/2, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Third of 11 in juvenile hurdle at this course (17f, good, 5/6) on NH debut 35 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. More needed. Second to fair type in 1m2f maiden at Down Royal; decent third on hurdling debut here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CHUTZPAL was an easy winner over course and distance last month and can follow up despite a 12lb hike for that victory. The Markaz gelding was making his second outing for Henry de Bromhead then and there may be more to come. Robin Donaghue-Leahy claims 7lb off him now to offset some of that rise. Stariam has been knocking on the door in maiden company and looks on a fair mark now in handicaps. She should run a big race again. Jabbar has been in good form and looks another for the shortlist, hailing from the in-form Ger O'Leary yard.
This is wide open but ELSA'S PRIDE rates just the pick of these weights so is fancied to bag a first win of the season at the chief expense of Empress Alma, who wasn't seen to best effect when fifth at Galway last time. In-form trio Polemon, Stariam and Say It So also need factoring into this competitive handicap.
Having come home well over 1m5f last time in a race that is working out well, JABBAR should get the trip and might have another in him

1st (6) (4/1 +20%) Pride Of Nepal |
4/1(+20%) | (6) Pride Of Nepal 4/1, Now over 2 years without a win but produced another creditable effort in defeat under this rider when third at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago. Drop in trip isn't a concern and he holds place claims with cheekpieces reapplied. Consistent efforts under Sarah Bowen since joining this stable; won over C&D in 2022. |

2nd (7) (20/1 -186%) Platinum Prince |
20/1(-186%) | (7) Platinum Prince 20/1, Never been the most reliable conveyance and he couldn't justify his prominent position in the market when last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) when last seen in May. Others make more appeal. Absent since a dismal effort when favourite for AW event in May; opposed. |

3rd (1) (11/4 -10%) Beautiful Crown |
11/4(-10%) | (1) Beautiful Crown 11/4, Has thrived since joining Jack Jones, winning 3 of her 5 starts, including an 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 17 days ago with a bit in hand. Big shout from 4 lb higher mark. Chelmsford win took his record in amateur events to 2-3 and record for current yard to 3-5. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (11/1 +31%) Twin Earth |
11/1(+31%) | (2) Twin Earth 11/1, Raced in bumpers initially and left Flat debut form behind when fourth of 13 in maiden at Leicester (8.2f, good to soft) last month. Soundly held both starts since, including on handicap bow last time, so others are preferred. 0-3 in bumpers and 0-4 on Flat; comfortably held last time, having pulled hard. |

5th (5) (10/1 -54%) Meadram |
10/1(-54%) | (5) Meadram 10/1, Runner-up in a selling event at Chelmsford City on his penultimate outing last season and ended year with a respectable third at Wolverhampton. Best watched on return from 9-month break. Turf record is far from solid; absent since last November; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (7/2 +50%) Bletchley Storm |
7/2(+50%) | (4) Bletchley Storm 7/2, Has scored 3 times this season, latterly when making a successful start for this yard at Brighton in July. Too free upped in trip when sixth of 8 in handicap at same course (11.9f, good) 15 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive. Possibilities back down in trip, for last year's winning trainer/jockey combination. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (11/2 -10%) Shalfa |
11/2(-10%) | (3) Shalfa 11/2, Front-runner notched her second win of the year at Brighton in June and ran at least as well in defeat when second in an 11-runner handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Claims again from unchanged mark. Back in good form the last twice; should remain competitive granted another easy lead. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Beautiful Crown must enter calculations upped 4lb for a recent victory over 1m2f at Chelmsford, but his tendency to break slowly tempers enthusiasm somewhat. SHALFA impressed when making all over 1m2f at Brighton on her penultimate start and, after shaping well again when runner-up at Windsor last month, she gets the vote to land the spoils. This step back in trip can help Bletchley Storm be seen to better effect and she completes the shortlist.
BEAUTIFUL CROWN has been in a rich vein of form since joining the Jack Jones yard and can defy to top weight to notch his fourth win for his new trainer. Pride of Nepal shouldn't be inconvenienced by the drop in trip and also merits respect, with Sea of Charm completing the shortlist.
The vote goes to PRIDE OF NEPAL, who holds solid claims on recent form and is a C&D winner. Beautiful Crown is feared most.

Dam (h101), maiden hurdler (stayed 2½m), half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (winner around 2m) Beatabout The Bush. Debutant worth a market check but likely to be all the better for the experience. |

5th (7) (12/1 -20%) People Pleaser |

11/1(+8%) | (4) Navy Guitar 11/1, Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, fifth of 14 in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) 39 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Downpatrick maiden hurdle fifth step in the right direction; more required on bumper debut. |

Bred to have the requisite spead for this sort of test and looks an obvious one for top connections. Very well-bred newcomer won't have to be anything special to make a winning belated debut. |

Lady Bouquet |
(7) (8/1 +11%)8/1(+11%) | (7) Lady Bouquet 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in July. 12/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good to firm) 17 days ago, unsuited by step up in trip. Could bounce back returned to this distance. Two 5f wins this year, including here; below par over 6f latest; drying ground would help. |

1st (2) (11/1 -10%) Zaphea |
11/1(-10%) | (2) Zaphea 11/1, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. Latest win here in June. Ninth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Carlisle (5.8f, good) 2 days ago. Others preferred. Struggled badly since her C&D win in June, most recently on Wednesday; risky for now. |

2nd (1) (9/2 +0%) Wee Fat Mac |
9/2(+0%) | (1) Wee Fat Mac 9/2, Last of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm, 9/2) 14 days ago. No great surprise if he can put that poor run behind him here. More prolific on AW & failed to fire last time; earlier runs, incl C&D, bring him into it. |

3rd (3) (7/2 +46%) Object |
7/2(+46%) | (3) Object 7/2, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Catterick in April. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap (17/2) at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 66 days ago. Not ruled out. Two fair efforts following his Catterick win in April; conditions should suit; contender. |

4th (5) (9/2 -64%) Warrendale Wagyu |
9/2(-64%) | (5) Warrendale Wagyu 9/2, Winner at Doncaster in June. 4/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good) 13 days ago. Should be on the premises again. Doncaster win on h'cap debut in June; back at that level at Ayr latest; capable of better. |

5th (8) (10/1 +29%) Jackie Brown |
10/1(+29%) | (8) Jackie Brown 10/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Navan (5f, good to soft). Off 108 days. Has a bit to prove but market support would look significant. Irish raider; just one win from 15 starts; may need more of a test than this. |

6th (4) (3/1 -33%) Sound Reason |
3/1(-33%) | (4) Sound Reason 3/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 10 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good, 11/1) 8 days ago. Not taken lightly. Good 2nd at Beverley last week; slower ground no problem; one to consider. |

7th (6) (18/1 -13%) Borough |
18/1(-13%) | (6) Borough 18/1, C&D winner. 28/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 5 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 20 days ago, very slowly away. Others preferred. Thrown in on last year's best, including C&D on soft; slow starts a big issue in 2024. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Sound Reason went close at Beverley last week, but today's soft going is a worry for him and WARRENDALE WAGYU is preferred. The unexposed three-year-old has already won at Doncaster this summer and failed to catch the winner by only a head at Ayr on his latest start. Lady Bouquet landed a double over the minimum trip, including a C&D success, before being beaten over 6f and she can get involved, while Object has won on a soft surface and is worth a second glance.
SOUND REASON is on a feasible mark and, having returned to form when second at Beverley last time, he's worth a chance to go one better at the possible expense of Warrendale Wagyu, who also arrives on the back of a solid showing. Object is probably the pick of the remainder, all of whom have to get back on track.
The unexposed WARRENDALE WAGYU (nap) still has some growing up to do but leaves the impression he has much more ability than this mark.

1st (4) (9/2 -29%) Seddon |
9/2(-29%) | (4) Seddon 9/2, Once-raced maiden on Flat. Smart winner at 21f in chases. Pulled up in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (20.2f, good to soft, 5/1) 67 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Struggling for form over jumps; ran respectably when fourth of five in last year's renewal. |

2nd (1) (9/4 -50%) Brogue |
9/4(-50%) | (1) Brogue 9/4, Useful gelding. 15/2, respectable fifth of 18 in handicap at Leopardstown (12f, heavy). Off 10 months. Significantly up in trip. Stable in good form. Missed two years before showing good form last term; comes back from 10-month layoff. |

3rd (2) (4/5 -10%) Como Park |
4/5(-10%) | (2) Como Park 4/5, Useful gelding. 11/2, won 13-runner handicap hurdle at Bellewstown (24.5f, good to firm) 48 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time on the Flat (on when winning over jumps). Sets a high standard. Been getting the hang of hurdling, will stay and gets a handy bit of weight from Brogue. |

4th (3) (125/1 -89%) Rio Doce |
125/1(-89%) | (3) Rio Doce 125/1, Twice-raced maiden on Flat. Tongue strap on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in maiden at Roscommon (12.2f, heavy, 125/1) 3 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Modest form in three starts, including on return from a year off at Roscommon on Tuesday. |

100/1(-100%) | (5) Supreme Law 100/1, Modest gelding. Eleventh of 12 in novice hurdle (80/1) at Kilbeggan (18f, soft) on NH debut. Off 13 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Matthew J. Smith. Modest owner-ridden gelding starts off for new yard after 13 months off; can't be fancied. |

COMO PARK comes here in winning form and that looks a big plus. The Camelot gelding battled to get up close home at Bellewstown early last month after some solid runs over hurdles. It remains to be seen if he's up to his old Flat mark of 90 but this looks like a nice opportunity. Seddon ran well in this last year, when fourth to Almuhit, but was pulled up when last seen over fences in Kilbeggan. Brogue hasn't been seen since last October but had some solid handicap form last year and has to be respected despite having to give weight to his rivals.
COMO PARK was useful on the Flat prior to going jumping and, fit from a Bellewstown hurdle win last month, is taken to make a successful return to the level. Dermot Weld's Brogue is the likely danger.
Fit from hurdling, a discipline at which he's improving, COMO PARK is well in at the weights in relation to sole danger Brogue

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.
