|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 13:50 Doncaster | 3rd (1) Shadow Dance |  | | | | 4 | James Doyle | Roger Varian | Flopped at Royal Ascot on reappearance (his only run on good to firm ground) but has a cracking record in his other four handicaps; stuck to his task most determinedly to get on top close home at York (1m4f, good) three weeks ago; up 5lb but he's progressive and this trip now looks viable. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | (2) Citizen General | | | | | 5 | David Egan | Ed Dunlop | Seen almost twice as often on the AW but had an impressive win on good to firm last August; did well over 2m on AW last winter, notably for an easy Kempton win, but he failed to fire in an AW Championships race next time and finished last in the Chester Cup in May latest; very mixed messages. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | (3) Evaluation | | | | | 6 | Joe Fanning | Lucinda Russell | Got up close home at Wolverhampton (2m, AW) in April on second start for new yard and backed that up with second of 20 in the Northumberland Plate at Newcastle (2m, AW; 40-1) in June; he's close to his career-high mark now, however, and was never dangerous at York (2m) last time; unraced over shorter than 2m since August 2022; first-time cheekpieces need to spark something. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | (4) Dream Harder | | | | | 5 | Jamie Spencer | Ian Williams | Losing run up to 13; beaten a head at the Shergar Cup meeting at Ascot last month and not disgraced when front-running on AW last time; upped in trip and the cheekpieces (of last five starts) are removed, but others are more persuasive. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | 1st (5) Faylaq | | | | | 8 | Amie Waugh | Jim Goldie | Ayr (1m2f) last month was the end of a monumental losing run but he's seldom far away and is versatile regarding distance, so has each-way claims. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | 2nd (6) Subsequent | | | | | 3 | Oisin Murphy | Andrew Balding | Won twice in June before failing to land a blow at Glorious Goodwood, all over about 1m4f on good to firm; looked a strong candidate for 1m6f and proved it when asserting late on in a five-runner race at Newmarket (soft) three weeks ago; up 4lb but this 3yo surely retains potential. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | (7) Quantum Leap | | | | | 5 | P J McDonald | Edward Bethell | Tends to be slowly away; below form in this race last year, perhaps because of soft ground; creditable minor honours off this mark on all four starts this term (1m4f, 1m6f, 1m5f and 2m) and should be on the premises. |
| 13:50 Doncaster | 4th (8) East India Dock | | | | | 3 | Ryan Moore | James Fanshawe | Below form at Royal Ascot in his only handicap on good to firm; cheekpieces enlisted on last three outings and resumed improvement when stepped up to 2m at Goodwood for last two, unlucky on first occasion but hugely on top under a 5lb claimer ten days ago; respected as a progressive 3yo but he has a 6lb penalty and the step back in trip may not be ideal. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | 1st (1) Benevento | | | | | 2 | David Egan | Raphael E Freire | Both starts on good ground; made all at Yarmouth (5f) in May and keeping-on second in Ripon Listed event (6f) last month; open to further progress upped further in distance (bred to stay at least 7f). |
| 14:25 Doncaster | (2) God Of War | | | | | 2 | Daniel Tudhope | Tom Clover | Both starts in July; solid fourth (behind the subsequent Gimcrack runner-up) over 6f at Yarmouth then just pushed out to justify favouritism in C&D novice event (good to firm); brings potential to this assignment. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | (3) Jonquil | | | | | 2 | Ryan Moore | Sir Michael Stoute | First foal of a useful performer for his connections; did well to win Sandown maiden (7f, good) two weeks ago, having been badly hampered, and looks much better than the narrow margin of victory suggests; promising. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | 4th (4) Mr Chaplin | | | | | 2 | Rob Hornby | Ralph Beckett | Record of 2-5 includes a success in Glorious Goodwood nursery (7f, good to firm); however, looks held by Symbol Of Honour and The Waco Kid on Coventry/Acomb efforts which expose his limitations to some extent. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | (5) Mukaber | | | | | 2 | Jamie Spencer | Richard Hannon | Proved well suited by the step up to 7f in Newbury maiden (good to firm) last month on fourth start, making all for an emphatic success; faces a stiffer task upped in grade but may have more to offer at this trip. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | 2nd (6) Symbol Of Honour | | | | | 2 | James Doyle | Charlie Appleby | Progressive in three starts in May/June, solid sixth in the Coventry at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm; Group 2) latest, shaping as if he'll stay 7f; gelded since; form has worked out well; major player. |
| 14:25 Doncaster | 3rd (7) The Waco Kid | | | | | 2 | Oisin Murphy | Hugo Palmer | Raced only on good to firm; brings Group form, having finished about 2l fifth in the Richmond at Goodwood (6f) then about 7l fourth in the Acomb at York (7f) last month; 1-1 under Oisin Murphy; not ruled out. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 1st (1) Aesterius | | | | | 2 | James Doyle | Archie Watson | Has won three of his five races, all at 5f; on form was entitled to win a Group 3 in France last time (made all; good to soft) and had previously split Big Mojo and Mr Lightside in Goodwood's Molecomb (good to firm); battle-hardened youngster who looks sure to be heavily involved. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 6th (2) Ain't Nobody | | | | | 2 | Tom Eaves | Kevin Ryan | Ran too poorly to blame just stamina on his step up to 6f in the July Stakes but rested since then; had previously matched the ten-year average winning RPR in winning the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) and he wouldn't be far away if back in that form. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 2nd (4) Big Mojo | | | | | 2 | Silvestre De Sousa | Michael Appleby | Beaten at Beverley first time out so his Group 3 Molecomb Stakes was a surprise (5f, good to firm; 25-1), but he proved that to be no flash in the pan when only 2l away in the Group 2 Gimcrack; only backed out of it late on at York having travelled with real purpose and 5f looks his trip for now; major player for the same connections that won this last year with Big Evs. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 8th (5) King's Call | | | | | 2 | Daniel Tudhope | Kevin Ryan | Debut winner who has finished behind Big Mojo in both his Group-race assignments; there's no reason why he should be finishing ahead of the Appleby runner here. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 3rd (6) Magnum Force | | | | | 2 | Colin Keane | G M Lyons | Tongue tied the last twice over 5f on good to firm; won at Cork and would surely have followed up in a Listed race at York had that panned out differently, as he wasn't well drawn and then found traffic issues before bearing down on Tropical Storm late on; has a Middle Park entry and looks decidedly smart. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 7th (7) Mr Lightside | | | | | 2 | Alistair Rawlinson | Michael Appleby | The winner of two 5f novices and has done well raised in grade, finishing hot on the heels of Big Mojo and Aesterius in a Group 3 at Goodwood and again not far away behind Tropical Storm and Magnum Force at York (5f Listed); asking a lot of him to reverse placings with all of those and probably placed at best. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 4th (8) Tropical Storm | | | | | 2 | Oisin Murphy | Andrew Balding | Second in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot (good to firm) before stopping quickly tried over 6f at Goodwood; bounced back from that with a 5f Listed win at York but from a good draw he got first run on the unfortunate Magnum Force and was all out to prevail; could struggle to confirm those placings with the second. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 5th (9) Zayer | | | | | 2 | Hollie Doyle | Archie Watson | 85,000euros breeze-up buy; unlike most of these he lacks Pattern-class experience but he posted smart figures when justifying odds-on favouritism at Ripon (5f, good to firm) and he could be a dark one. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | (10) Coto De Caza | | | | | 2 | Harry Davies | Simon & Ed Crisford | Looked nice in winning by 5l at Beverley (5f, soft) and comfortably followed up in a good time at Goodwood (fillies' conditions race; good to firm); won that day despite getting noticeably warm beforehand; dangerously unexposed and a Cheveley Park entry bodes well. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 10th (11) Make Haste | | | | | 2 | Gavin Ryan | Diego Dias | Never gave her running in the Queen Mary and then finished second in a Naas Listed race (5f, yielding); behind three of these when only sixth at York (5f Listed) but was soon on the back foot after starting slowly and ran well all things considered; worn this headgear combination the last twice; no forlorn hope at lengthy odds. |
| 15:00 Doncaster | 9th (12) Maw Lam | | | | | 2 | Jamie Spencer | Adrian Nicholls | Has gone 0-4 since her winning debut but has been performing to a commendable level, last time running right up to her best in a Listed race at Deauville (5f, good); just a worry that slow starts are becoming a habit and can't afford to concede ground in this company. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 4th (1) Coltrane | | | | | 7 | Oisin Murphy | Andrew Balding | Stalwart of the staying scene who won this race in 2022; however, disappointing performances have been in the ascendancy for a while now; perhaps excused his run in this contest last year, as that was on soft ground, but easily the best of his last six starts came when winning at Ascot this May in first-cheekpieces (kept since); big chance if he's back to that form. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 5th (2) Gregory | | | | | 4 | James Doyle | John & Thady Gosden | Took the 1m6f Queen's Vase from the front at Royal Ascot 2023; supporting roles in his six races since but the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot was his only flop; career-best form in the Goodwood Cup next time, beaten a head by Sweet William for second; third at York (again 2m on good) last time was not at that level but some of the stars of the division are missing today and he has to be considered seriously. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 3rd (3) Point Lonsdale | | | | | 5 | Ryan Moore | A P O'Brien | Ran respectably sole start on good to firm; 0-8 in Group 1 races but has won five lesser Group contests and he's a leading contender on form; impressive over the extended 1m5f at Chester in May, galloping on relentlessly; first venture beyond that when disappointing favourite at York (2m) three weeks ago but he's nevertheless back for more in the Cup races and over an even longer trip this time; interesting to see whether his backers return. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 1st (4) Sweet William | | | | | 5 | Robert Havlin | John & Thady Gosden | Has had headgear and Rab Havlin for all starts; second to Trueshan in this race last year marked his emergence as a Cup horse; produced late with the first-time visor (kept since) over 2m at Sandown in May to win his first Group race and he's shown even better form since in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2m4f) and Goodwood Cup (head in front of Gregory); good chance. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 2nd (5) Trueshan | | | | | 8 | Hollie Doyle | Alan King | Tricky to settle; beaten a neck by Coltrane in this race in 2022 but he went one better against Sweet William in it in 2023; as in those races, he's usually been kept to ground softer than good, but he was allowed to take his chance on good going on last two starts, hammering his rivals in a Listed race at Sandown but finishing just over 4l adrift of Sweet William and Gregory in the Goodwood Cup last time; a staying star of previous campaigns but on this season's evidence he needs a bit extra. |
| 15:35 Doncaster | 6th (6) Wise Eagle | | | | | 7 | Daniel Tudhope | Adam Nicol | Peak turf efforts on good to soft; tailed off in the Ascot Gold Cup last June on final 6yo start; surged back to his best when third in 1m6f Group 3 at York this July, having made smooth headway over 2f out, but always behind at 50-1 in the Ebor Handicap there three weeks ago; stays 2m2f but even his best form gives him a stiff task. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 6th (1) There's The Door | | | | | 4 | Richard Kingscote | David Evans | Her last win came at last season's Glorious Goodwood when the ground was heavy; she has run mostly respectably this term but having ground softer than good, preferably soft or heavy, seems vital to her chance. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 4th (2) Ayyab | | | | | 4 | Oisin Murphy | S Woods | Won at Goodwood (1m4f, good) in May and ran creditably on next two starts, before a modest show behind Cabrera at Newmarket on latest; coming back down to 1m4f may help but others may be more open to improvement. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 3rd (3) Bint Al Daar | | | | | 4 | Daniel Muscutt | Kevin Philippart De Foy | Two wins from her last four starts, along with two seconds over the extended 1m2f at York and she ran on well from the back in a 15-runner race there on latest outing; unraced beyond that but 1m4f now looks worth a go (despite pedigree) and she comes here having been in career-best form. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 2nd (4) Cabrera | | | | | 3 | Callum Rodriguez | Edward Bethell | Improvement during first five starts culminated in a valuable novice win at Doncaster (upped to 1m4f, good to firm) in July; creditable second of seven on handicap debut at Newmarket (good) four weeks ago when upped to 1m6f; back in trip and needs to resume progress but no way can that be ruled out. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 1st (5) Meribella | | | | | 3 | Rob Hornby | Ralph Beckett | Won at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last August on sole 2yo start; the most solid form in her three races this term came when 33-1 fourth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (1m5f, good) last time, having to be switched before running on; has a competitive mark and may still be capable of better. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 5th (6) Miss Alpilles | | | | | 3 | Jamie Spencer | Ed Walker | Up and down in her first four races but, with a hood added, she improved markedly next time when coming from last to first in an eight-runner handicap at Haydock (11.6f, good) ten weeks ago; off since; has maybe turned a corner and the form has been boosted but she's 9lb higher today. |
| 16:10 Doncaster | 7th (7) Beatrice Shilling | | | | | 3 | Kieran O'Neill | Peter Chapple-Hyam | Came from well off the pace to push an unexposed Godolphin filly close in a valuable novice at Newbury (1m2f) in July; outpaced in rear for most of the last half mile on handicap debut at Salisbury (again good to firm) despite the move up to 1m4f, but did her best work at the finish and left the impression that the best is yet to be seen of her. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | (1) Arf's Duchess | | | | | 2 | Cieren Fallon | Charles Hills | 88,000euros yearling; Saxon Warrior half-sister to nine winners, notably Imperial Fighter (7f 2yo/Irish Guineas third); stable has a modest strike-rate with 2yos this term. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | 4th (2) Berning Hot | | | | | 2 | David Egan | Richard Hannon | Green and seemed to need the run at Newbury (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago but needs a big step forward, having recorded a modest RPR; the other two runners with experience have better form. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | (3) Coma Cluster | | | | | 2 | Richard Kingscote | Sir Michael Stoute | Wootton Bassett half-sister to winners Uxmal (Listed-placed 1m6f-2m5f) and Reflexivity (US 7f turf), out of 6f winner (including 2yo/Group 3); major connections; interesting newcomer. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | 2nd (4) Gulya | | | | | 2 | Silvestre De Sousa | Roger Varian | 200,000gns foal; Night Of Thunder half-sister to KSA 1m winner Marroof, out of unraced sister to Irish 2,000 Guineas winner Romanised; notable connections; looks one for the shortlist. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | (5) Kebili | | | | | 2 | Sean Levey | Richard Hannon | Showed promise with her seventh-place finish, keeping on from rear, in Newbury maiden (6f, good to firm) two weeks ago; represents last year's winning yard and looks open to improvement. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | (6) Kingsclere | | | | | 2 | Oisin Murphy | Andrew Balding | Sister to her connections' 2,000 Guineas winner Kameko, who scored on 2yo debut; dam US 1m turf Grade 3 scorer, half-sister to 1m 2yo Group 1 winner Kingsbarns; respected debutante. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | (7) Like A Vision | | | | | 2 | Daniel Tudhope | David O'Meara | 60,000gns yearling, 215,000euros (breeze-up) 2yo; Blue Point half-sister to 6f 2yo winner Najat, out of 1m4f AW winner who descends from an Oaks runner-up; heed the market signals. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | 3rd (8) Thanks Angel | | | | | 2 | Connor Beasley | Adrian Paul Keatley | 120,000gns yearling; Dark Angel half-sister to three winners, notably With Thanks (7f including 2yo/Group 3); one of several newcomers in the field; check the betting. |
| 16:45 Doncaster | 1st (9) Whirl | | | | | 2 | Ryan Moore | A P O'Brien | Has shown ability in both runs, latest in the Convivial Maiden at York (7f, good to firm; fifth of 17) where she was the only filly in the field; this Ballydoyle runner sets the form standard. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | 2nd (1) Artagnan | | | | | 2 | James Doyle | K R Burke | Has performed well at major festivals since switched to nursery level, winning at Glorious Goodwood then close second at York, both over 6f on good to firm; very solid contender, despite another rise in the weights. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | (2) Diligently | | | | | 2 | Richard Kingscote | Clive Cox | Got up close home in York sales race (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago, belying his 22-1 odds and opening his account at the sixth attempt; likely player off new mark, provided that improvement is confirmed. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | (3) Wheels Of Fire | | | | | 2 | Sean Levey | Richard Hannon | Has received no punishment from the assessor for Lingfield (AW) novice win last month when taking advantage of a good opportunity; consistent thus far and and likely to remain competitive; nursery debut. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | 1st (4) Shout | | | | | 2 | Robert Havlin | Simon & Ed Crisford | Spoiled his chance by hanging and proving a difficult ride last time when bidding for a Salisbury (6f) double, holding on for third place; chance of progress depends on whether that waywardness doesn't become a habit. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | 4th (6) Blinky | | | | | 2 | P J McDonald | Ed Walker | Campaigned exclusively over 5f; has shown no further progress since his spring success but latest effort, when never-nearer third at Sandown, suggests he's ready for a crack at this new trip; could go well. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | (7) Shazani | | | | | 2 | Connor Beasley | Charlie Johnston | Clear best form at Hamilton, namely a maiden success in June and nursery second (might have won but for coming off a true line) last week, both over 6f; has something to prove away from that venue. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | 3rd (8) Far Above The Law | | | | | 2 | Kieran O'Neill | Alice Haynes | Form figures of 133 since being gelded, close third in competitive nursery at the York Ebor festival (6f, good to firm) most recently; ties in with the similarly solid Artagnan on that effort; shortlisted. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | (9) Rare Change | | | | | 2 | Oisin Murphy | Richard Hughes | Six-race maiden who is proving consistent; ties in with Artagnan and Far Above The Law on Goodwood/Newbury form the last twice; possibilities off same mark, provided first-time headgear prompts some improvement. |
| 17:20 Doncaster | (10) Equalised | | | | | 2 | Rob Hornby | Charles Hills | Thrice-raced colt whose fourth at Kempton (AW) is flanked by poor efforts on turf; may be capable of better in handicaps but this looks a difficult assignment for the first attempt; eligible for lesser events. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 14th (1) Digital | | | | | 6 | James Sullivan | Ruth Carr | Enjoying a good summer, winning two 5f handicaps at Hamilton on good ground; creditable efforts in defeat twice since last win; back down in class today and should go well once again. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 11th (2) Seantrabh | | | | | 4 | Zak Wheatley | Declan Carroll | Has form on straight tracks but both wins have come around a bend; still 1lb higher than for his Chester win one year ago (5f, good to soft) but that was a fine effort and his efforts when last seen in May weren't too bad; capable if ready to roll after 105-day absence. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | (3) Rock Of England | | | | | 4 | David Nolan | Paul Midgley | Three 6f wins for Ed Bethell; in good form over 5f in recent months for this stable, most recently finishing second of 16 at Beverley 19 days ago (5f, good to firm); short of his best in two visits to Doncaster. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 12th (4) Princess Karine | | | | | 5 | Andrew Breslin | Bryan Smart | Wide-margin win at Pontefract in May (5f, soft) hasn't proved a springboard to better things; she is now 2lb lower but others boast more compelling claims. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 4th (5) Paddy's Day | | | | | 4 | Alex Jary | Nigel Tinkler | Yet to win this year but he's finished second on three occasions; latest 6f run not the one to judge him on and he holds each-way claims under these conditions. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 5th (6) Count d'Orsay | | | | | 8 | P J McDonald | Tim Easterby | Not as good as he was but he won cosily at Chester on his penultimate start off 4lb lower; finished behind Digital at Hamilton three weeks ago, however, and drying ground won't be in his favour. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 1st (7) Fantasy Master | | | | | 6 | David Egan | Darryll Holland | 3lb lower than for his 6f win here last summer (good ground); yet to win this year but he's run several good races in defeat, including at York on Sunday when he only tired in the final 100 yards; big run on the cards back at 5f. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 6th (8) Rebel Path | | | | | 5 | Sean Levey | Stuart Williams | On a fair mark on the pick of this year's handicap runs and he responded well to a visor at Sandown 13 days ago, racing enthusiastically but unable to sustain his effort in the closing stages; this track may prove more suitable and he's been dropped another 1lb since; not ruled out. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 13th (9) Hurt You Never | | | | | 5 | Mia Nicholls | Adrian Nicholls | Prolific in Class 5/6 company; only 2lb higher than for her Newbury win in July (5f, good to firm) and this is weaker than the Class 2 she tackled at York last month; others still look to hold more obvious claims. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 7th (10) Strong Johnson | | | | | 8 | Daniel Tudhope | Paul Midgley | On a lowly mark again but he's been beaten at 3-1 or shorter on his last three starts and there weren't any obvious excuses at Ripon 18 days ago; capable at this level but may have to make do with more minor money. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 9th (11) Cluedo | | | | | 4 | Nicola Currie | Henry Candy | Had a wind op in July and her finishing effort when second at Goodwood three weeks ago suggested it had done the trick; runs off the same mark today and, given her relatively low mileage, there could well be more in the tank. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 10th (12) State Of Madness | | | | | 3 | Raul Da Silva | Derek Shaw | Only fifth on Saturday's handicap debut at Wolverhampton; while he may do better at some point, this race looks too competitive. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | (13) Crypto Quest | | | | | 5 | Dale Swift | Scott Dixon | Better on turf than AW and with that in mind his latest second at Southwell (second run for Scott Dixon) was encouraging; has solid form at this track and he's one to consider. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 2nd (14) South Parade | | | | | 3 | Tommie Jakes | Richard Fahey | Something of a slow burner but things have really clicked in recent weeks, showing fine speed to win a 6f handicap at Thirsk in good style last month; confirmed herself an improved performer when third in a Racing League event at Newcastle three weeks ago, making the running and only picked off late; the second there has advertised the form since and she could well have more to come; key player. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 8th (15) Protest Rally | | | | | 4 | Tom Kiely-Marshall | Liam Bailey | Slow start for this stable but having dropped in the weights he's been back in the groove since June, winning twice at Musselburgh (5f, good) and narrowly beaten at Ripon and Musselburgh the last twice; sneaking up the handicap but current wellbeing counts for plenty. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | 3rd (16) Water Of Leith | | | | | 6 | Amie Waugh | Jim Goldie | Style of racing leaves him a hostage to fortune but he's talented and isn't handicapped out of things; saw no daylight when ninth at Newcastle last time (behind South Parade); chance if getting a clear run through. |
| 17:55 Doncaster | (17) Lady Nunthorpe | | | | | 3 | Tom Eaves | Geoff Oldroyd | Seven-race maiden; may have needed the run on last month's return to action at Beverley (stable debut) but this looks a deep race in which to try and shed her maiden tag. |
