Race 1: 15:15 Salisbury Skytree Restricted Novice Stakes (For Horses In Bands A, B, C And D) (GBB Race) GB 1m

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
6th (11) Orchard	2	Ethan Jones	Warren Greatrex	28-1 and ran green when last of 13 on last month's Newbury debut (7f, good to firm); plenty more needed.
12th (9) Masterofperfection	2	Gina Mangan	Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	April foal by Mastercraftsman; 55,000gns yearling; half-brother to winners Desert Gulf (6f/7f including 2yo/AW/Bahrain; RPR 99), Red Hat Eagle (multiple 1m; 91), Mabel Jane (1m4f; 93) and Sabaani (1m AW; 76); dam unraced half-sister to Arc winner Marienbard; stable 1-18 with 2yo newcomers this year; others make greater appeal.
7th (8) Opening Bat	2	Jack Mitchell	Harry Charlton	February foal by Bated Breather; 80,000gns yearling; half-brother to five winners including Gale Force Ten (6f/7f including 2yo/AW/Group 3; RPR 115), Rousay (7f AW 2yo/1m2f turf Listed; 106) and Eynhallow (1m1f-1m4f; 100); dam 7f-1m3f winner (including 2yo/Listed; 108); nicely bred, but stable's 2yo newcomers are usually better for a run.
9th (4) Arth's Gold	2	Marco Ghiani	Richard Hannon	100,000gns yearling; 33-1 when finishing in midfield on his Kempton debut (7f, AW) nine days ago; improvement required.
11th (5) Battle Stride	2	Saffie Osborne	Michael Bell	March foal by War Of Will; $50,000 yearling, 100,000euros breeze-up 2yo; dam twice-raced half-sister to US 8.5f Grade 2 winner Promenade Girl (dam of US 7f-1m1f Grade 1 winner Cavorting); stable has the occasion winning 2yo newcomer, but may only be of interest if attracting support.
10th (10) Night Step	2	Ross Coakley	Owen Burrows	April foal by Showcasing; 57,000gns foal, £60,000 breeze-up 2yo; half-brother to winners Cribbs Causeway (Listed-placed 1m3f-1m4f including AW; RPR 100), Voyager Blue (1m including AW; 92) and Rosy Kiss (1m; 72); dam unraced half-sister to 1m2f/1m4f Group 1 winner Coronet; tongue tied for debut, but stable has its share of 2yo winners first time out so worth a market check.
8th (6) Crackeagle	2	Rossa Ryan	Ralph Beckett	March foal by Cracksman; first foal; dam unplaced 1m2f-1m4f (RPR 61), sister to useful 7f-1m4f winner Galactic Prince, half-sister to 1m 2yo winner Opera Forever, out of 1m2f/11.4f Listed winner from family of smart stayer/jumper Grey Shot; already gelded and stable is also represented by Square D'Alboni, but yard's record with 2yo newcomers this year makes him well worth monitoring in the market.
2nd (1) Archie's Angel	2	Clifford Lee	Clive Cox	10-1 when making a winning debut at Haydock (7f, good) in July, displaying a nice turn of foot; extra furlong should be within range and respected despite conceding weight all round.
3rd (3) Celeborn	2	Billy Loughnane	George Boughey	Sent off 5-4 favourite for his Leicester debut (7f, good to soft) in June and got the job done, but not before zig-zagging all over the track; withdrawn after getting upset in the stalls next time and has been gelded since; should stay 1m and remains open to plenty of improvement; respected.
4th (12) Way Of Stars	2	David Probert	Andrew Balding	Sent off 2-1 favourite when beaten a neck on last month's Goodwood debut, only getting run out of it late; that was a promising start and he wouldn't need to improve much to play a major roll.
1st (2) Square D'Alboni	2	Hector Crouch	Ralph Beckett	Has excuses when well held on his Doncaster debut in July (started favourite) but showed his true worth when making all at Epsom (7f, good) last month; extra furlong should suit him on pedigree and he shouldn't be underestimated; stable also runs the newcomer Crackeagle.
5th (7) Half Moon Bay	2	Tom Marquand	William Haggas	20-1 when fifth of seven on his Newmarket debut (7f, good) three weeks ago (third has won since); gave the impression he would benefit both from that initial experience and this extra furlong; one for the shortlist.

Three of these have already got their head in front. Although Archie's Angel (second choice) and Square D'Alboni are respected, preference is for CELEBORN who was all over the place on his Leicester debut in June, but still proved good enough to win. Way Of Stars only went down narrowly on his Goodwood debut and is one for the shortlist in receipt of weight from the previous winners, while there should be better to come from Half Moon Bay. The market should indicate what is expected from the newcomers.[David Bellingham]

Race 2: 15:55 Salisbury Ire-Incentive, It Pays To Buy Irish Dick Poole Fillies' Stakes (Group 3) (IRE Incentive Race) GB 6f

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(7) Santa Savana	2	Ross Coakley	Rod Millman	Twice out of the frame in Listed races since making a successful debut at Leicester (6f, good to soft) in May; has plenty to find at this level.
4th (1) Betty Clover	2	Georgia Dobie	Eve Johnson Houghton	Has enjoyed mixed fortunes since winning a Listed contest at York (5f, good) in May, her best subsequent effort when beaten a neck in the Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (6f, good to firm) in July; well held in the Lowther and vulnerable to an improver, though stablemate Juniper Berries had the same number of runs before taking this last year.
(3) Handcuffed	2	David Probert	Andrew Balding	Made a winning debut at Newbury (6f, good to firm) in July and finished a close fourth of 17 in a York nursery (6f, good to firm) last month, but she has about 3l to find with Betty Clover on Princess Margaret running in between; others preferred.
2nd (6) Miss Fascinator	2	Billy Loughnane	Roger Varian	Landed an Ascot novice (6f, good) in July and returned to winning form in a Newmarket nursery (7f, good) last time, but she has twice finished out of the frame in races won by Magic Mild; more needed.
3rd (5) Magic Mild	2	Saffie Osborne	Clive Cox	In fine form having won her last two starts over 6f at Newmarket, firstly in a maiden (good to soft) and then in a nursery (good to firm); more needed at this level, but the form of both of those races has worked out well in the meantime so she shouldn't be underestimated; entered in the Cheveley Park.
(2) Greydreambeliever	2	Clifford Lee	K R Burke	Apparently unfancied (14-1) for her York debut (6f, good to firm) in July, but found enough to win by half a length (first two finished well clear of the third); likely there is plenty more to come from her and she holds a Cheveley Park entry; respected.
(4) Jewelry	2	Tom Marquand	William Haggas	280,000gns yearling; sent off 14-1 for her Newbury debut (6f, good) four weeks ago, but belied those odds with a cosy victory (first two clear); not sure how strong the form is, but the style was taking and she is one for the shortlist.
1st (8) Tabiti	2	Rossa Ryan	Ralph Beckett	Justified market strength when making all and winning easily on her Newmarket debut (7f, good to firm) last month; holds entries in the Rockfel and Fillies' Mile, but her pedigree suggests she should handle the shorter trip; high on list.

Betty Clover has a similar profile to Juniper Berries who won this last year for the same stable, while Magic Mild is respected in her hat-trick bid. However, there are three fillies in here who were successful in their only starts so far and look open to improvement. Greydreambeliever and Jewelry defied market weakness on their respective debuts, but preference is for TABITI who was impressive when winning at Newmarket last month. She can defy the drop in trip.[David Bellingham]

Race 3: 16:25 Salisbury Andy Hardwick & Clive Leonard Memorial Nursery Handicap (0-70) (5) 2yo GB 6f 213y

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
5th (8) Saint Fonteyn	2	Gina Mangan	Rachel Cook & John Bridger	Big prices and well beaten in three novices over 5f/6f on turf/Polytrack; needs to find a good deal more from out of the weights on nursery debut.
7th (7) Camden Flyer	2	William Carson	Michael Attwater	Four starts for Andrew Balding, faring best when third of six on nursery debut at Chester (7f, good to soft) in July; a repeat of that would give her a chance, but she has since changed hands for 10,500gns; market may be revealing on stable debut.
4th (5) Tiempo Alegre	2	Clifford Lee	Jack Jones	Has beaten a total of two rivals in three starts over 6f-7f (stiff task latest); needs the switch to a nursery and application of a hood to perk her up.
(4) Kaiya	2	Tom Marquand	Richard Hannon	Failed to beat a rival in her first two starts over 7f/1m, but showed more when beaten less than 3l into sixth of ten at Newbury (6f, good to firm; 100-1) 15 days ago; gives the impression there is more to come and respected on nursery debut for stable that has won two of the last three runnings.
2nd (3) Gold Medallist	2	Billy Loughnane	Eve Johnson Houghton	Went close at Goodwood (5f, heavy) in May and at Brighton (6f, good to firm) in June, but has regressed in his last three starts including two nurseries; needs the cheekpieces to help halt the slide.
6th (1) Wathbah	2	Joshua Bryan	Archie Watson	Third in novice/maiden company in the summer, but was well held on nursery debut at Newmarket (7f, good) last month; that was in a 0-90, though, and she takes on lesser company here; shortlisted
1st (2) Up The Pace	2	David Probert	Edward Smyth-Osbourne	Has shown ability in all three starts as when fifth of 12 at Kempton (7f, AW) last month (second and fourth have won since); respected now switched to a nursery.
3rd (6) Pay Attention	2	Rossa Ryan	Tom Ward	Showed promise when fourth of ten on his Chelmsford debut (6f, AW) in June (form worked out well), but has come nowhere near that in two starts on turf (cheekpieces removed after one use); gelded since last seen and he needs to resume his progress on nursery debut.

Up The Pace has shown ability in all three starts and is respected on nursery debut, while Wathbah has also shown enough to be considered in this lesser company. However, the choice is KAIYA who revealed her first signs of ability at Newbury last time and could step up again on nursery debut. Her stable has won two of the last three runnings.[David Bellingham]

Race 4: 16:58 Salisbury British EBF Quidhampton Maiden Fillies' Stakes (GBB Race) GB 6f 213y

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
5th (4) Calaxy	2	Ross Coakley	Tom Dascombe	Out of an unraced half-sister to 7f 2yo Group 3 winner Rainbows For All; well beaten when 33-1 for debut at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) in May and not seen again since.
6th (2) Bizou	2	Rossa Ryan	Jonathan Portman	First foal from a French 9.5f Listed winner; made low-key debut when seventh of 11 over C&D (good to firm) last month and needs to have taken significant benefit from that outing.
3rd (1) Art Patron	2	David Probert	Andrew Balding	Has a nice pedigree but was unable to justify prominence in betting on debut and did not show any significant improvement on second start; needs to take a good step forward here.
7th (3) Bowerchalke	2	Billy Loughnane	Jane Chapple-Hyam	Out of a Listed-placed 7f/1m2f winner and made quite promising debut when dead-heat fourth of 11 at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) last month, form that has been very well advertised by the winner since; needs to improve here but has potential.
4th (7) Take A Breath	2	Tom Marquand	William Haggas	Seventh foal; sister to two smart US milers, half-sister to two other winners including Serious Notions (Listed-placed 7.4f; RPR 95); dam 1m winner (67); in good hands; no surprise if she features on debut.
2nd (5) Jowddah	2	Jack Mitchell	Roger Varian	Well-bred filly who overcame some greenness to finish second behind a Godolphin newcomer on debut at Newmarket (7f, good; third won next time out) three weeks ago, and sets a clear form standard here; obvious contender.
1st (6) Sandtrap	2	Hector Crouch	Ralph Beckett	450,000gns yearling; fourth foal; sister to US 1m Grade 1 winner Carl Spackler, half-sister to 9.4f/1m2f AW winner Tribal Wisdom (RPR 85); dam US 5.5f-1m turf winner (including Grade 2; 104), half-sister to 1m1f Grade 1 winner Western Aristocrat; could be anything.

The 450,000gns yearling Sandtrap has a striking pedigree and is a very interesting newcomer but Newmarket runner-up JOWDDAH is unlikely to remain a maiden for much longer and is taken to put her experience to good use. Take A Breath is next on the list.[Chris Wilson]

Race 5: 17:33 Salisbury Graham Daish Memorial British EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race) GB 1m 1f 201y

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(3) Sixfiveseven	4	Josephine Gordon	Keiran Burke	Placed twice on the Flat in French provinces in 2022 but he did not show much in his two starts over hurdles, for Milton Harris on first occasion; now tries headgear.
(7) Fire And Rain	3	Billy Loughnane	John Butler	80-1 for maiden at Ffos Las (1m, heavy) two weeks ago and ended up beaten 15l, showing low-level form.
4th (4) Wiltshire Wonder	4	Joshua Bryan	Archie Watson	Well-related 4yo who didn't run for the Gosdens; off the mark at Worcester (good) in June in his third bumper; showed some ability at 66-1 in a Southwell novice (1m4f, AW) ten days ago on debut under Flat rules but can't be fancied yet in this sphere.
(5) King Chaos	3	Clifford Lee	K R Burke	Late foal; half-brother to three fairly useful 1m4f winners; 12-1, 2l third of nine in maiden at Windsor (1m2f, good to firm) last month was a promising debut but whether he can match the two penalised winners in this field is another matter.
2nd (6) At No Time	3	Rossa Ryan	Ralph Beckett	Late foal; fourth foal; Galileo close relation to French 7f winner Bravais (1m4f Group 2-placed; RPR 115); dam 6f winner (including 2yo Group 2; 110), half-sister to winners Love (7f-1m4f Group 1), Peach Tree (1m6f Group 3) and Flattering (1m4f Group 3) who were all by Galileo; lots to like there and she needs a close look, from the same stable as Valvano.
1st (1) Military Academy	3	Tom Marquand	John & Thady Gosden	Late foal; Fastnet Rock half-brother to top stable's Group 1 2yo Fillies' Mile winner Commissioning; made his debut only three weeks ago, when second favourite and leading over 2f out to win eight-runner novice at Hamilton (1m3f, heavy) in clearcut style from the evens favourite who won a big handicap last Saturday; that was a highly promising start.
3rd (2) Valvano	3	Hector Crouch	Ralph Beckett	Late foal; 8-11 when wide-margin winner of a maiden at Nottingham (1m, heavy) last October; weak 13-2 for a conditions event at Kempton (1m, AW) in April and was put in his place in second, but that was by Notable Speech, who won the 2,000 Guineas next time, and a smart sort was third; absent since (gelded in June) but this longer trip will suit and he's the pick on form; Group 2 entry this month.

Military Academy left a big impression when winning his belated debut three weeks ago on heavy ground, from The Reverend who turned up in a valuable handicap at Ascot two weeks later and won it easily. The Gosden 3yo is not opposed at all lightly but VALVANO has also won in the mud and his reappearance form has also been franked fairly spectacularly. That reappearance was in April and he was being prepared for the Dante afterwards but failed to make that engagement and this is his first run since. He may be able to start making up for lost time. Newcomer At No Time looks good on pedigree and is from the same yard as the selection.[Richard Austen]

Race 6: 18:03 Salisbury Weatherbys Stallion Book Persian Punch Conditions Stakes (GBB Race) GB 1m 6f 44y

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(5) Clear Storm	3	Georgia Dobie	Nigel Hawke	Record of 1-7 for William Haggas, with a 1m2f win and mostly fair form at up to 1m3f; vastly better is needed in this company, whereas she underperformed on stable debut 16 days ago.
3rd (3) Salsada	7	Billy Loughnane	Brian Ellison	Pretty useful on the Flat, last seen in this sphere in 2022; similar at her best over hurdles but she's been a couple of notches below that in 2024; this looks a tough return to Flat duties.
2nd (2) Drawn To Dream	4	Saffie Osborne	Jamie Osborne	2m4f, soft-ground Listed win in Germany last September; good run under a big weight when sixth of 16 in handicap at Royal Ascot (1m6f, good to firm) on stable/seasonal debut; well below that level in her three starts since, including with sights lowered considerably last time, so best watched.
(4) Sumo Sam	4	Rossa Ryan	Paul & Oliver Cole	Came into her own once encountering heavy and soft ground last term, galloping on relentlessly with front-running rides to win two Group 2s over about 1m6f; flopped on reappearance this May; returned from wind surgery with a satisfactory run (considering the good to firm ground) last month but well held in fifth when bidding for a repeat Park Hill win at Doncaster yesterday.
1st (1) Quickthorn	7	Tom Marquand	Hughie Morrison	Front-runner who won this race in 2021, on his way to four Group wins including the Group 1 Goodwood Cup in 2023; the major concern is that his only subsequent run last year was disappointing and something has also been missing in his three races this term, but this is a step down in class and he should still be good enough.

The class acts in this field are QUICKTHORN and Sumo Sam, who have not been able to show it this year but this race is a major case of having their sights lowered. With Sumo Sam having run at Doncaster yesterday, the way is open for Quickthorn to score for the first time this season, ahead of Drawn To Dream.[Richard Austen]

Race 7: 18:35 Salisbury S H Jones Wines & Champagne Joseph Perrier Handicap (0-80) (4) 4yo+ GB 6f

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
8th (9) Conquest Of Power	4	Alicia Perkins	Mark Usher	Two 7f AW wins in May; ran poorly at Epsom in July and underwent wind surgery two days later; tailed off over 1m here two weeks ago on his first run since; risky.
2nd (10) Snuggle	4	Marco Ghiani	Luke Dace	Always prominent when winning a 6f handicap at Windsor in April; good third over 7f here in June (made the running) but he's underperformed under more patient tactics twice since; big chance if allowed to stride on.
3rd (6) Hierarchy	5	Saffie Osborne	Jamie Osborne	Should be well handicapped but he has failed to build on the promise of his reappearance at Newmarket in May; not sure there will be enough pace on for him to shine in this field.
4th (7) Grenham Bay	4	David Probert	Andrew Balding	His turf win came over C&D last May (beat Snuggle); closely matched with Strike on Newmarket form last month but he took a backward step in a Racing League handicap at Southwell two weeks ago; others appeal more for win purposes.
6th (5) Ray Vonn	4	Hector Crouch	B F Brookhouse	Not fully exposed at 6f; ran no race in the Great St Wilfrid consolation at Ripon four weeks ago but he's better than that and it wouldn't be a huge surprise to see him bounce back.
7th (3) Strike	6	Olivia Tubb	Jonathan Portman	Had been tricky to win with in his first few seasons of racing but he's turned that around in 2024, winning three of his five starts (all 6f on good to firm); ran as well as he ever has when second at Newmarket four weeks ago (winner won again since); another 2lb higher today but can't discount in current form; raced on good to soft on debut (July 2021) but not tackled slower than good since.
10th (4) Extrication	5	Rossa Ryan	Roger Teal	Placed over 1m and 7f in maiden/novice company; unplaced in two 7f handicaps this summer; creeping down the weights but the drop to 6f needs to have a positive effect.
1st (2) Bishop's Crown	4	Billy Loughnane	Eve Johnson Houghton	Windsor win on his reappearance came off 3lb lower; back near his best when fourth at Windsor 25 days ago, keeping on steadily, and he's a contender at this level.
5th (1) Tiriac	4	Clifford Lee	Jack Channon	Looked firmly on the up in May, beating Snuggle on heavy ground at Windsor and then seeing off 20 rivals in a York sprint 19 days later (6f, good to soft); unable to make the transition into Class 2 company on his last two starts but he's a strong contender at this level; wouldn't want the ground to dry out too much.
9th (8) Capote's Dream	7	Tom Marquand	Tom Ward	Ran well at Windsor on his reappearance in April but his form nosedived subsequently; much more like it the last twice, going down narrowly over 6f at Newbury last week (soft ground); 2lb well in and he's one to be interested in.

Underfoot conditions will be important here as Tiriac will be hard to beat if it's slow and the thriving Strike would prefer it to be drying out. Snuggle can go well if ridden prominently but Bishop's Crown and CAPOTE'S DREAM (nap) may be the pair to focus on. The latter went close at Newbury last week, is 2lb well in as a result and represents a stable in fine form.[Paul Smith]

Race 8: 19:10 Salisbury Symonds Event Catering Handicap (0-70) (5) 3yo GB 6f

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(4) Twisted Tiara	3	David Probert	Rod Millman	Best form when winning a Bath novice (extended 5f, soft) in April; minor efforts in AW novice and 5f handicap debut here (good to firm) since but she may do better with this greater stamina test and softer conditions.
(3) Clyde Bay	3	Georgia Dobie	Eve Johnson Houghton	Showed promise at 5f and 6f as 2yo; looked a likely type for handicaps but he finished lame when pulled up early on return in April; unknown quantity now but trainer has won this twice since 2014; market can guide.
3rd (5) Unico	3	Jonny Peate	Chris Gordon	Two 6f wins for previous yard; back in form of late, having a difficult passage at Goodwood (good to soft) and she couldn't quite peg back the winner on Lingfield AW since; competitive off 1lb lower than her April win.
(11) Thunderous Love	3	Saffie Osborne	Jonathan Portman	Mixed fortunes since handicapping but was suited by the drop to 6f on soft ground when a ready C&D winner in May; not as good since but the return to this track, if the ground remains good to soft, can suit.
(8) Intertwined	3	Billy Loughnane	Brian Meehan	Lightly raced filly who's been big prices and a weak finisher in 1m handicaps on last two starts and looks a good candidate for a drop in trip; still has a question to answer.
(9) Art Fantastique	3	Tom Marquand	Tom Ward	Raised his game once handicapping in a tongue-tie, winning first two starts, both at 6f on good ground, and he lost little in defeat on AW debut when last seen in November; might well have more to come in 2024.
4th (2) Sub Thirteen	3	William Carson	Tony Carroll	Ran flat in July; previously won three of four sprints for new yard, seemingly not at his limit at Leicester (6f, good to soft; has won on good and heavy) in the latest of them; up 3lb but may do better yet back at 6f.
1st (7) Land Of Magic	3	Gina Mangan	Rachel Cook & John Bridger	Winner of handicaps at 5f (heavy) and 7f (good), the latter in July; has had excuses for latest defeats but extra needed back at this trip on her earlier 6f handicap form; tongue-tie refitted.
2nd (10) Moe's Legacy	3	Marco Ghiani	Ronald Harris	Suited by fast surfaces and it was good to firm when she drew clear over C&D in June; has run well in defeat since and refitting a visor saw her go close over 7f at Chepstow recently; could be vulnerable off current mark back at 6f.
(1) Glitterella	3	Rossa Ryan	Clive Cox	Much better the last twice, runner-up to wide-margin winner at Haydock (6f, good; made running) and ridden more patiently dropped to 5f at Bath (good to firm) when involved in a tight finish; a first win edges closer.
(6) Port Hedland	3	Hector Crouch	Henry Candy	Highly creditable fifth of 12 in a strong 6f Kempton AW novice in October; came on for his Windsor reappearance when finishing well into a close third of four at Bath (also 5f; good) last week; ready for another go at 6f and likely not seen the best of him yet.

Unico (second choice) has hit form for her new yard and is weighted to win again but PORT HEDLAND can fulfil the promise of his final 2yo start on the AW and his recent Bath third and get off the mark. Sub Thirteen still has some potential at this trip and is preferred of the remainder, although Clyde Bay is one to keep an eye on.[Emily Weber]
