Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (10/11 +44%) Enchant	0.909091 10/11(+44%)	(3) Enchant 10/11, 16 Mar; £300,000 breeze-up purchase by Wootton Bassett; half-siter to Legitify, who won over 1m on the dirt in the US; dam smart at 9f; likely go well for powerful connections on debut £300,000 breeze-up 2yo; stable rich in 2yo talent and she's of obvious paper interest.
2	1 2nd (1) (85/40 -13%) Bleep Test	2.125 85/40(-13%)	(1) Bleep Test 85/40, Second by 2l on debut at Redcar; won second start back there; second beaten a neck in a novice over 5f at York in better; steadily progressive; top course trainer; up in trip; contender Useful form on all three starts; know-how is a big plus against two newcomers; contender.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/3 -33%) American Flight	3.333333 10/3(-33%)	(2) American Flight 10/3, 21 Feb; 230,000gns Starspangledbanner filly; half-sister to several winners, including Feathery and Les Bleus, very smart at 7f; dam smart at 5f; Danny Tudhope tends to do well here 230,000gns half-sister to three winners out of a useful sprinter; lots to like on paper.

LTO Selection:hiden content,

Having lost little in defeat when finishing a close-up second in a class 2 event at York recently, this looks a suitable opportunity for BLEEP TEST to outrun her rivals. Tim Easterby's filly sets a good standard dropping in class and her experience could prove crucial. 300,000-pound newcomer Enchant must be monitored in the betting, along with American Flight, a half-sister to the Group-placed Les Bleus.

The newcomers, especially Enchant, are of interest but BLEEP TEST is useful and may do better. She can exploit her experience.

MALANGEN was on an 8lb higher mark when he won this corresponding race 12 months ago and is an attractive proposition, having had a similar preparation in the build up to his crack at back-to-back wins. Huit Reflets goes well here and can make sure the selection is kept up to his work, while National Question is another C&D winner that cannot be ruled out having returned from a break/wind surgery with a fourth-placed finish on the Flat at Pontefract last month.

A chance is taken on HUIT REFLETS who was too free for his own good when placed here two weeks ago and he's back in trip.

1	4 1st (4) (4/1 +11%) Buck Barrow	4 4/1(+11%)	(4) Buck Barrow 4/1, Slowly away beaten 7l in a handicap at Chepstow last time; usually consistent; could bounce back Very solid second (strong form) at Bath on stable debut; unsuited by Chepstow later in May.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/1 -10%) Electric Bass	11 11/1(-10%)	(2) Electric Bass 11/1, Below par well beaten on turf debut in a handicap at Chepstow latest; in good form prior on AW; risky Possibilities on most recent AW effort but failed to transfer the form to turf since.

6th	5 6th (5) (16/1 +20%) Grande Armee	16 16/1(+20%)	(5) Grande Armee 16/1, Appeared not to stay well beaten in a handicap at Leicester latest; given another chance over 1m2f; Shoemark up; not out of it Finished about 10l behind Shabu Shabu at Leicester but may do better still.
7th	8 7th (8) (125/1 -89%) Bird About Town	125 125/1(-89%)	(8) Bird About Town 125/1, Appeared not to stay down the field in a handicap over 12f at Lingfield most recent; cheekpieces first time; not proven trip; more needed Has finished last in most starts; dismal claims.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

D DAY MAJOR WINTER appeals most after proving he can last beyond a mile with a resectable second-placed finish over an extended 1m3f at Lingfield 11 days ago. This slightly shorter trip could prove to be ideal given the way that race panned out and he won't need much of a step forward to assert his authority under top-weight. Leicester runner-up Shabu Shabu is feared most, although Buck Barrow also has strong possibilities at this level.

A maiden handicap in all but name. BUCK BARROW is the form pick on his Bath effort. Shabu Shabu is second choice.

14:40 Pontefract (Class 6) 10f - 3 Run Class & Speed Card

1	2 1st (2) (85/40 +23%) Twilight Guest	2.125 85/40(+23%)	(2) Twilight Guest 85/40, Hat-trick seeker; going away a touch line and came clear with second landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off 52 for second straight win at Brighton; form progressing and rated in 60s in 2023; in the mix Took an age to get off the mark but now chasing a hat-trick after two easy Brighton wins.
2	1 2nd (1) (15/8 +38%) Hawa Jumeirah	1.875 15/8(+38%)	(1) Hawa Jumeirah 15/8, All out after looking like would win easily landing a handicap by a head off 56 at Leicester last time; high cruising speed, but lacks turn of foot at 10f; can't ruled out entirely looking to follow up Two wins this year, the latest last month over this trip on good to firm; needs more here.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/4 +63%) Roman Secret	1.5 6/4(+63%)	(3) Roman Secret 6/4, Probably needed race when reappearing for first time since October when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Nottingham latest; another who could be in with a chance, but on long losing streak Shaped okay on stable/seasonal debut; sharper today but may prefer good ground or slower.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content,

Twilight Guest supplemented his breakthrough victory at Brighton last month when following up over the same C&D six days later. George Margarson's gelding warrants respect in his hat-trick bid, but could be worth taking on off a 7lb higher mark. Hawa Jumeirah arrives on the back of a triumph at Leicester, but preference is for ROMAN SECRET, who is taken to improve on her fourth-placed seasonal/stable bow at Nottingham earlier this month.

Roman Secret can build on her recent stable debut but the thriving TWILIGHT GUEST can complete his hat-trick.

3	3 \|U\| (3) (9/2 +0%) Disco Annie	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(3) Disco Annie 9/2, Flattened out but returned to form, poorly placed at sharp track in race dominated from front fourth beaten 6l in a handicap chase over 2m1f at Cartmel latest; good mark on hurdle form; has speed edge here; easy lead likely; strong claims Below-par fourth of five in 2m1f Carmel handicap chase 29 days ago; others appeal more.

BENY NAHAR ROAD is readily nominated after he won in a cosy manner at Southwell 19 days ago. A 6lb higher rating looks fair and the six-year-old's case is boosted as he already boasts some C&D experience. Glory And Honour's recent second-placed finish over hurdles here should have kept him ticking over nicely and he rates a key player in what is likely to be a tactical affair. Scots Poet can utilise his course knowledge to out manoeuvre Disco Annie for third place.

Henry Hogarth's progressive BENY NAHAR ROAD scored impressively at Southwell recently and can make light of a 6lb rise in the weights

Nivelle's Magic was back on a previous winning mark when scoring over 1m4f at Southwell on her most recent start, but she has a 5lb higher rating, a 53-day absence to overcome and two additional furlongs to cope with here. Those factors are persuasive enough to suggest looking elsewhere, with BLENHEIM LAD forwarded as the first one to consider. Already a winner over this distance, that proven stamina earns the Camilla Poulton-trained gelding the vote. Adrian and Jimmy Mark can also feature.

With a combined record of 3-3 at Ffos Las and respectable 2025 form, NIVELLE'S MAGIC and Jimmy Mark are the biggest players.

Sol Cayo continued his progression for current connections when landing the spoils at Southwell 149 days ago and he must enter calculations. However, he does have something to prove on turf, so LIEBER POWER could be the one. The son of Cracksman arrives on the back of a respectable fourth in a class 2 event at Haydock and a similar performance may prove sufficient. Expert Witness is also noted.

Expert Witness is better than she showed last time but LIEBER POWER looks the safest option.

Fortune The Brave's latest start is best forgotten as he unseated at the first flight at Punchestown. The Irish raider has to be of interest in taking this potentially winnable race. However, he has to concede plenty of weight to the hat-trick seeking MAN OF ACTION, who won over this C&D in early-May before following up at Perth a fortnight ago. A 5lb higher rating might not be enough to prevent him from extending the winning sequence, while Foxwood and Brave Adam are the pick of the rest.

A few with chances but MAN OF ACTION (nap) hasn't looked back since sent over longer distances and can complete a hat-trick

This could be well within the reach of MAGNETITE, who won't need much of a step forward to get off the mark. The Wathnan Racing-owned colt was a respectable third behind a much better-fancied stable companion on his seasonal debut at Chepstow last month and should be spot on for a bolder showing in this, his qualifying run for a handicap mark. Outlandish, Pantani and Mum's Angel are other unexposed options to consider.

Arctic Dawn and The Hare Rail are major players on form, while MAGNETITE and Outlandish could well progress further.

KARMOLOGY has been the bridesmaid on three previous occasions in Listed races but is a game mare who could step up here. The Karl Burke-trained five-year-old is set to encounter ideal ground conditions and, still unexposed over the trip, there is plenty to like about her. Ralph Beckett has a good record in this and plays another strong hand, with the less-exposed Meribella shading preference over Allonsy as the main danger. Santorini Star could go well too.

Progressive SANTORINI STAR (nap) has been found a good opening for her first start at Listed level. Karmology is feared most.

This isn't the deepest of contests and it could provide MAGGIES BOY the perfect opportunity in which to break his hurdling duck. Jennie Candlish's gelding has posted a number of solid efforts in defeat and the addition of a first-time tongue-tie could eke out a little more. Moonbow was a well-held third at Perth a fortnight ago but he ought to have learnt plenty from that experience and is one of the likelier candidates. Mayor Kingston is a half-brother to a multiple hurdles winner and market support would be noteworthy.

He wouldn't be one to take too short a price about but MAGGIES BOY has by far and away the most convincing pieces of form.

This looks open with the likes of handicap debutants Maybe Not, Amica and Key Witness all seemingly capable of better, but it is HUNKY DORY that gets the vote. The son of Pinatubo was perhaps in need of the outing at Newmarket at the beginning of last month, though he took a marked leap forward to finish an extremely creditable fifth in a warm York contest latest. Eased 1lb in the handicap, it would come as no great surprise were he to find further progress and land the spoils.

Several runners are interesting, particularly KEY WITNESS (nap). Second choice is Maybe Not, ahead of Hunky Dory.

SURREY FIRE is open to progression and given that his dam won the Cesarewitch during her career, there are very good reasons to expect the Hughie Morrison-trained four-year-old will have the stamina reserves to have a big impact. This is no easy task and the likes of Almudena and Diamand De Vindecy, a C&D winner in April, will keep the selection honest. Captain Potter could also be a surprise package in an open race.

Almudena can leave her reappearance behind her but a thorough stamina test could unlock SURREY FIRE's undoubted potential.

MARTY MCFLY jumped well to make a successful chasing bow over C&D recently and, with the prospect of more to come, he is fancied to defy a 3lb rise en route to further success. Royal Deeside was also victorious over track and trip last time so he merits the utmost respect, as does Fontwell scorer Fortunate Fella. O'Faolains Glory is no back number either.

Last month's gritty Fontwell winner FORTUNATE FELLA can continue the good work for his new yard after leaving Paul Nicholls for £40,000.

King of The Dance has remained competitive since winning at Wolverhampton in March and the six-year-old is expected to be thereabouts once again. That said, it might be worth taking a chance on SCENARIO. The low-mileage three-year-old posted a solid effort when fourth at Brighton earlier this month. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time and they could elicit some improvement. Irish raider Yquem makes her handicap bow and the booking of David Egan is noteworthy.

This could go to SCENARIO, who can build on a very good recent Brighton fourth (the form has been franked) to get off the mark here.

FEACH AMACH hasn't looked back since undergoing wind surgery in March, winning three of her four starts since - the most recent of those coming at Kelso last month. Adam Nicol's mare is 4lb higher today and would require a career-best but, while some of these have a bit to prove, she ought to go very close. A drop in trip and a return to this venue could hold the key to Les's Legacy, who merits respect along with handicap debutant Kow Boy Sivola.

THREE YORKSHIREMEN was able to take advantage of a sliding handicap mark when on target over 1m3f at Kempton recently. Sean Levey retains the ride and a 2lb rise will be no barrier to further success. If seeing out this extra furlong, he might prove tough to beat. Cornish Storm has been in solid form under both codes and must feature prominently in calculations, while Run Of Luck appeals most of the remaining trio.

Based on recent form and other factors, CORNISH STORM (narrowly preferred) and Three Yorkshiremen are the strongest contenders.

Adorla Of Achill made all to score at Haydock last month and is respected off 5lb higher, but preference is for STYLE OF LIFE. Back on the grass for her seasonal return at Chester recently, the daughter of New Bay recorded a commanding success. 6lb higher but already proven at this venue, she appears to hold outstanding claims. Volenti is another who must enter calculations.

Last-time-out winners Style Of Life and ADORLA OF ACHILL can dominate. The selection may be open to the greater progress.

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.
