(8) (1/1 +47%)Next Of Kin |
1/1(+47%) | (8) Next Of Kin 1/1, Promising debut when third beaten 2l in a maiden at Newbury debut; effective 6f on good to firm; good chance here with progress likely for top yard. Out of a Group-placed 6f/7f 2yo winner and kept on well for third on recent debut at Newbury (6f, good to firm), despite showing her inexperience; improvement likely here; leading contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (11/4 +8%)Fly Smartly |
11/4(+8%) | (4) Fly Smartly 11/4, Improved on debut effort beaten 2 1/2l in a maiden at the Curragh last time; effective 7f on sound surface; type to do better when handicapping. Out of a well-connected 7f 2yo winner and displayed clear promise on first two starts, more recently when fifth at Curragh (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; drops back in trip here; ought to make her presence felt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/2 -57%)Desert Smoke |
11/2(-57%) | (3) Desert Smoke 11/2, Below debut level, lacked pace early beaten when 6l in a novice at York last time; top course jockey; effective 6f on good to firm; bounce back needed. Disappointing favourite when only fifth of six at York last month but her debut at Newmarket (also 6f, good to firm) a fortnight earlier was promising and she remains one to be interested in.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (15/2 +6%)Myesme |
15/2(+6%) | (7) Myesme 15/2, 10 Apr; Havana Grey filly; half-sister to Thelma's Angel, very useful at 7f; dam high-class at 5f; trainer in form but might need this. Fourth foal; half-sister to 6f winner Thelma's Angel (RPR 88); dam Listed-placed 5f/5.4f winner (109), closely related to 5f/6f winner Daffy Jane, half-sister to 7f Group 3 winner Last Empire; makes appeal on paper.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (12/1 +0%)Ashina |
12/1(+0%) | (1) Ashina 12/1, Maybe needed run on debut well beaten in a maiden at Doncaster only start; off a short-break; bred for 7f+; should improve. Raced too freely and ran green when last of six in valuable Doncaster maiden (6.5f, good to firm) on debut in June; ought to be more streetwise here but needs to take a big step forward.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (22/1 -83%)Lady Titania |
22/1(-83%) | (5) Lady Titania 22/1, Moderate debut well beaten in a novice at York only start; tongue-tie first time; bred for 6-8f; improvement likely now tried in tongue-tie. Out of a half-sister to Nunthorpe winner Reverence; weakened into seventh in York novice (6f, good to firm) last month but represents a good stable and can improve if aided by new tongue-tie here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (33/1 -83%)La Flor Granada |
33/1(-83%) | (6) La Flor Granada 33/1, 6 May; 40,000gns Perfect Power filly; half-sister to Baba Boom, very useful from 12f to 17f; could have a say on debut for good northern yard. 40,000gns yearling; eighth foal; half-sister to winners Baba Boom (11.3f-12.3f; RPR 92) and New York Dreams (US 6.5f turf); dam unraced half-sister to 6f Group 1 winner The Tin Man and 6f Group 2 winner Deacon Blues; good market support will bring her into the equation.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (50/1 -178%)Oh So Slow Sloth |
50/1(-178%) | (9) Oh So Slow Sloth 50/1, Poor debut when well beaten in a novice at Hamilton only start; hood first time; off a short-break; major improvement needed. Half-sister to useful 6f/7f performer Brighton Boy; dropped out tamely and finished last of six on debut at Hamilton (6f, good) 12 weeks ago; returns with hood added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (66/1 -100%)Dadawada |
66/1(-100%) | (2) Dadawada 66/1, Found little, below form well beaten in a maiden at Musselburgh only start; wide draw; major improvement needed. Out of a half-sister to two Group-winning sprinters and a Listed sprint winner but made a low-key debut for Gemma Tutty at Musselburgh (5f, good) in June; now with new stable.. |

NEXT OF KIN shaped with promise after showing her inexperience when third on her racecourse bow at Newbury and William Haggas' filly has been found a suitable opportunity to get off the mark at the second time of asking. Desert Smoke was a beaten favourite in a decent York novice last month and she is entitled to be in the mix, along with the two newcomers Myesme and La Flor Granada.

(5) (9/4 +18%)Hostelry |
9/4(+18%) | (5) Hostelry 9/4, Lacked pace off steady gallop beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Hamilton last time; visor first time; suited by a stiff 1m, acts on any; more needed but this is a weak race. Ten-time winner; on the downgrade now but fairly consistent in handicaps in recent months; went without her usual cheekpieces on last two outings; big player in this grade if first-time visor has any positive effect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (11/4 +58%)Millbuie |
11/4(+58%) | (6) Millbuie 11/4, Run of race, ran to form up to 10f when second beaten 4 1/4l in a classified race at Newcastle latest; effective 8-12f, acts on soft, good and AW; capable maiden. Beaten only by a short head and a nose when third in similar C\u0026D race to this last month and also ran well when second at Newcastle (1m, AW) ten days ago, but his 0-29 strike-rate is not easily overlooked.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 +25%)Spirit Of Nature |
9/2(+25%) | (8) Spirit Of Nature 9/2, Never in it from off the pace beaten 7l in a handicap here last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; usually held up; effective up to 11f; much more needed. Did not get competitive over C\u0026D on seasonal/handicap debut a fortnight ago, but remains unexposed after only four runs and is worth a glance in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (13/2 +13%)Concert Boy |
13/2(+13%) | (2) Concert Boy 13/2, Never in it after a slow start when down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; effective 7/8f, suited by AW; bit to prove on turf. Five-time AW winner but 0-24 on turf; will appreciate this ease in grade but has been out of form since returning from a break in June; needs to turn things around.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (15/2 -114%)Bridgefoot Rambler |
15/2(-114%) | (1) Bridgefoot Rambler 15/2, Ran to form tried in blinkers 3/4l third in a classified race at Thirsk most recent run; effective 1m on good to firm; much better latest, headgear needs to work again. Placed for first time in five-race career when 150-1 third in this grade at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) last month, seemingly aided by first-time blinkers; contender if in similar form again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (14/1 -17%)Due Respect |
14/1(-17%) | (3) Due Respect 14/1, Below form beaten 7l in a classified race at Catterick last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; below last winning mark, but needs a lot more than of late. Made the frame in 7f Musselburgh handicap in June but has not been firing on all cylinders this year and is not yet proven over 1m.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (16/1 -33%)Royal Baroness |
16/1(-33%) | (11) Royal Baroness 16/1, Paid price for trying to go with winner when 16l third in a handicap at Musselburgh most recent run; off a short-break; stays 1m on soft and good; big, rangy filly, more to come. Stayed on for fourth off basement mark on seasonal/handicap debut at Carlisle (1m, soft) in May, but her well-held third at Musselburgh (1m, good) the following month was a backward step; others look stronger.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (16/1 -33%)Game Management |
16/1(-33%) | (4) Game Management 16/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Sedgefield latest; returning from long layoff; effective 1m on Flat; plenty to find. Soundly beaten on all three Flat starts last year (albeit on ground slower than good) and pulled up twice over hurdles afterwards; returns from 314-day absence with a lot to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (20/1 -25%)Hawksworth |
20/1(-25%) | (10) Hawksworth 20/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a novice at Newcastle most recent; sire a sprinter, dam a miler; all to prove for now. Showed no significant promise in three novice races in June (7f-1m2f) but has a more realistic chance to get competitive in this basement-grade contest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (28/1 -133%)Charcon |
28/1(-133%) | (9) Charcon 28/1, Late gains tried in cheekpieces beaten 6l in a classified race at Newcastle last time; effective at 6/7f, acts on AW; bit to find back on turf. Not disgraced when fifth of 13 in this grade at Newcastle (7f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) last month, but has now been unplaced all eight starts; back up in trip for turf return; improvement required.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (28/1 -40%)Ring Of Gold |
28/1(-40%) | (7) Ring Of Gold 28/1, Again ran to a poor level well beaten in a handicap at Hamilton latest; effective 7/8f, acts on any; all to prove for now. Won two 7f AW handicaps in September, but recent turf form has been disappointing and he's now 0-25 on this surface.. |

It might be worth taking a chance on SPIRIT OF NATURE, whose seasonal return/handicap bow wasn't entirely devoid of promise. The low-mileage gelding might step forward from that outing, especially because he had undergone wind surgery prior to it. Bridgefoot Rambler outran odds of 150-1 to hit the frame at Thirsk and is high on the shortlist as a result, whilst Hostelry could also be thereabouts in a first-time visor.

(8) (10/3 +17%)Tikka |
10/3(+17%) | (8) Tikka 10/3, 14 Mar; 30,000 euros Sealiway filly; half-sister to Candonomore, useful at 8f; dam smart at 10f; worth a market check on debut. 30,000euros yearling; fifth foal; half-sister to winners Trinquette (French 7f/1m; RPR 100), Candonomore (7f/1m; 88) and Tilak (French 8.5f AW); dam French 7f AW 2yo winner (93); trainer doesn't have many 2yos go in at the first time of asking.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/3 +26%)Hidden Beyond |
10/3(+26%) | (5) Hidden Beyond 10/3, Born in Southern Hemisphere on 9 Feb; Lucky Vega filly; dam French 11f winner; yard capable of readying one and this filly has a chance on debut. Born in Southern Hemisphere in February 2024; second foal; out of a French 1m3f winner, closely related to French 1m4f Listed winner Sacred Spirit; breeding suggests she might be one for further down the line.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (5/1 -11%)Greta Tintin |
5/1(-11%) | (4) Greta Tintin 5/1, 9 Apr; Kameko filly; half-sister to Queen Leila, useful at 6f; dam fair at 14f; top course trainer and likely go well on debut. Half-sister to 1m AW winner Queen Leila (RPR 62); dam 1m6f Flat (62) and 2m hurdle winner; in a powerful yard so the betting should be instructive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (11/2 +0%)Rhythm Of My Heart |
11/2(+0%) | (12) Rhythm Of My Heart 11/2, 1 Mar; 14,000gns Lope Y Fernandez filly; half-sister to St Pancras, very useful at 14f; dam high-class from 14f to 15f; might need further than this. 14,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to 1m4f/1m6f Flat (RPR 90) and 2m hurdle winner St Pancras; dam 1m2f-1m6f winner (109); appeals as one who might do better over longer trips next season but needs checking in the betting; one of two runners for this yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (15/2 +6%)Nouva Stella |
15/2(+6%) | (6) Nouva Stella 15/2, 22 Mar; 38,000gns Sergei Prokofiev filly; half-sister to Preanka, very useful at 6f; wide draw on debut and probably need the experience. 38,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to 6f 2yo winner Preanka (RPR 77); dam unraced sister to French 1m2f Listed winner Tresorerie; it's not ideal for a newcomer to be drawn widest over 7f here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (10/1 +0%)Blue Vixen |
10/1(+0%) | (3) Blue Vixen 10/1, 27 Mar; 32,000gns breeze-up purchase by Blue Point; trainer in form and this one is worth a market check on debut for all that others are preferred. 32,000gns breeze-up buy; by Blue Point; first foal; out of an unraced half-sister to winners Dubai Harbour (1m2f) and Passive Management (US 1m1f); yard is 0-4 with 2yos this season but she might be happier over this trip than some with stouter pedigrees.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (12/1 +0%)Alidoolally |
12/1(+0%) | (1) Alidoolally 12/1, 13 Mar; Mohaather filly; dam smart at 15f; wide draw on debut makes things trick and is probably best watched. Third foal; out of a Listed-placed 1m5f winner (RPR 101) and sister to 1m 2yo/12.4f winner Gallifrey; longer trips will suit in time but Saffie Osborne is booked; her yard's first 2yo runner of the season, along with stablemate Rhythm Of My Heart.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (14/1 0%)April's Luck |
14/1(0%) | (2) April's Luck 14/1, 3 Apr; 42,000 euros Gleneagles filly; half-sister to One Cool Bear, useful at 6f; dam useful at 5f as a 2yo; tough enough task on debut. 42,000euros yearling; second foal; dam placed 5f 2yo (RPR 75), half-sister to winners Mgheera (5f Group 2) and Readman (Italian 6f-10.5f); one of two runners from this yard and it's best to let the market guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (18/1 -80%)Singing Blues |
18/1(-80%) | (7) Singing Blues 18/1, 8 Feb; 32,000gns Space Blues filly; half-sister to Fast Society, very useful from 7f to 9f; worth a market check on debut. 32,000gns yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to 7f winner Fast Society (RPR 92); dam unraced sister to 11.6f winner Nathania; stable's 2yos 1-18 this season and a watching brief makes sense.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (20/1 -100%)Isabella Of Aragon |
20/1(-100%) | (10) Isabella Of Aragon 20/1, 29 Apr; 12,000gns Phoenix Of Spain filly; half-sister to He's A Laddie, very useful at 5f; looks up against it on debut. 12,000gns yearling; twelfth foal; half-sister to five winners including Pursuing The Dream (French 5f 2yo Listed; RPR 100), Izlaz (French Listed-placed 1m/8.5f; 96) and He's A Laddie (5f AW 2yo; 85); dam maiden half-sister to Listed winners at 6f and 1m2f; best watched unless backed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (33/1 -32%)Blanquita |
33/1(-32%) | (9) Blanquita 33/1, 9 Feb; Lope Y Fernandez filly; half-sister to Huggable, useful at 10f; dam fair at 8f; probably best watched on debut. Second foal; half-sister to 1m2f winner Huggable (RPR 75); dam placed 1m/8.6f AW (70), out of Australian 6f-winning close relative of New Zealand 7f Group 1/Australian 1m Group 2 winner Tavistock; nice pedigree so worth checking in the betting, especially with her yard doubly represented.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (40/1 -21%)Lady Gloriana |
40/1(-21%) | (11) Lady Gloriana 40/1, 7 May; 2,000gns Mohaather filly; half-sister to Dudley's Boy, useful from 8f to 9f; dam very useful at 7f; wide draw; tough enough task on debut. 2,000gns yearling; sixth foal; half-sister to winners Dudley's Boy (1m-1m2f; RPR 88), Lunanova (1m; 72), Gyenyame (Flat/hurdle/chase winner) and Saorla (7f AW; 69); dam 1m 2yo winner (89); others appeal more on paper.. |

As is par for the course in these types of contest, the market is likely to be a good indicator as to what is expected, and only a tentative vote can go to SINGING BLUES with that in mind. The daughter of Space Blues is a half-sister to Fast Society, who won over 7f on the all-weather, so although she might come into her own over further in time, this should still be a suitable starting point. Others to note include Hidden Beyond, Greta Tintin and Alidoolally.

(10) (4/1 -14%)Carmel Valley |
4/1(-14%) | (10) Carmel Valley 4/1, Ran to form beaten a length off a 1lb higher mark here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; capable of better yet. Ex-Irish filly who has finished close up in handicaps here in her last two starts; gave it a good shot from the front over C\u0026D two weeks ago and she's still unexposed after only six runs; respected off 1lb lower than last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (5/1 +33%)Albeyours |
5/1(+33%) | (12) Albeyours 5/1, Bit below form, ground maybe quick enough when seventh beaten 4l off 53 last time, same mark here; effective 7f on soft and good; bounce back needed. Two wins since cheekpieces were added last autumn and her last success was at Carlisle (7f, soft) in June; didn't shine at Doncaster (good to firm) last time but that was over 1m and she still looks on a workable mark; dangerous back in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (5/1 +29%)Kelpie Grey |
5/1(+29%) | (4) Kelpie Grey 5/1, Below form beaten 8l in a handicap here last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; enjoys making it; effective 6-8f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Dual C\u0026D winner but his last success was in May 2024 and he's not finished closer than fifth in his seven runs this season; needs to find more back up in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/2 +0%)Novak |
11/2(+0%) | (5) Novak 11/2, Held when hampered, just about to form up to 1m beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark here last time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on soft and a sound surface; mark easing, can go well. Hasn't won on turf for more than three years but he's run plenty of good races this season including when runner-up over C\u0026D (good to firm) in May and close third at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) in June; hasn't made an impact in last two runs but this drop back in trip is a positive and he's in the mix.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (6/1 +33%)Yaaser |
6/1(+33%) | (8) Yaaser 6/1, Below form, lacked pace after slow start beaten 9l in a handicap here last time; in good form prior; top course trainer; effective 6-8f, acts on any; not ruled out. Four-time course winner (7f/1m) who acts on good to firm and good to soft; did well to finish a close third after missing the break at Hamilton (8.3f) nine days ago but he's not easy to predict and was always behind over C\u0026D on Saturday night; risks attached.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (8/1 +33%)Black Rock Beauty |
8/1(+33%) | (11) Black Rock Beauty 8/1, Below form when sixth beaten 13l off 64 last time, 1lb lower here; seems best at 7f, acts on good and AW; bounce back needed. Made the breakthrough with cheekpieces added at Redcar (7f, good) in May and he backed that up with a close third of 15 at Doncaster; struggled at Chester last time but that was from a wide draw and he ran into a handicap blot who won by 8l; has possibilities if he can bounce back and he's still unexposed at this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (9/1 -80%)Keep Me Stable |
9/1(-80%) | (9) Keep Me Stable 9/1, Bit keen, ran to form beaten a length off this mark at Musselburgh last time; trainer in form; wide draw; effective 7/8f, wants a sound surface; chance if building on latest. Three wins at Musselburgh last summer and she returned to form with a creditable second behind her stablemate there (7f, good) on Friday; this is a deeper race but her last win was off a higher mark and she has won at Ayr in the past; respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (10/1 +50%)Tropez Power |
10/1(+50%) | (7) Tropez Power 10/1, Well below from when down the field in a handicap at Southwell most recent; wide draw; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; mark lower back on turf, needs more. His last win was at Southwell in April 2024 but he travelled strongly for a long way before weakening there (7f) last month; record of 1-35 on turf but he's on a much lower mark back in this sphere and is well handicapped on his best form last season; one to keep an eye on with visor reapplied.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (12/1 -85%)Catton Lady |
12/1(-85%) | (1) Catton Lady 12/1, Flattered in a small field when second beaten 4 1/4l in a seller at Beverley latest; suited by 1m, acts on any, likes give; more needed back in a handicap. Ended a long losing run when scoring off 2lb lower at Carlisle (1m, soft) last June; has had just two runs this season but she's run creditably in a handicap and a seller at Beverley; now drops back in trip but has possibilities if she gets a good pace and some luck.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (22/1 -83%)Pal Joey |
22/1(-83%) | (3) Pal Joey 22/1, Lacked pace ridden to get 8f beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; effective 5-7f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing but needs more. Started this year with a 5f win at Newcastle (Tapeta) but he's been disappointing since and was beaten 7l at Newcastle (1m) last month; has plenty to prove and he needs a major revival back in trip; tongue-tie reapplied.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (40/1 -60%)Stoneywell |
40/1(-60%) | (6) Stoneywell 40/1, Never in it from off the pace well beaten in a handicap at Redcar latest; off a short-break; effective at 7f, acts on good; needs to settle, others stronger. Eight-race maiden who has form figures of 89778 in handicaps and was laboured at Redcar (7f, good) when last seen in June; mark continues to fall but he needs a transformation after a short break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (80/1 -21%)Joshuas Dream |
80/1(-21%) | (13) Joshuas Dream 80/1, Never in it from off the pace, well below form again down the field in a handicap here most recent; cheekpieces first time; top course trainer; effective 5f, acts on good; all to prove for now. Eight-race maiden who has been beaten 15l in two handicaps here (6f, good/good to firm) this season; mark is tumbling but he has a lot to prove with cheekpieces added at this new trip; one of three runners for the yard.. |

There are a few to consider in here but it looks best to side with KEEP ME STABLE, who bumped into an in-form stable companion when second at Musselburgh on Friday. That effort signified a clear return to form for Linda Perratt's mare and whilst still 3lb lower than when defeating the reopposing Novak last July, she can now go one better. Carmel Valley merits respect following a pair of creditable runs in defeat, while Albeyours and Catton Lady are others to note.

2/1(+60%) | (2) Celtic Storm 2/1, 16 Apr; 45,000 euros Texas colt; half-brother to Robot Rock, fair at 13f; from a good yard, chance here. 45,000euros yearling; seventh foal; closely related to French Listed-placed 1m AW winner Around The World (RPR 96); dam unplaced 7f/1m in France, half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 1 winner Carry On Katie; stable's 2yos are 5-21 on the AW this year; considered.. |

(3) (4/1 +60%)Find Your Fire |
4/1(+60%) | (3) Find Your Fire 4/1, 4 Feb; £25,000 breeze-up purchase by Persian Force; dam smart at 5f as a 2yo; tough enough task on debut. Bought at the breeze-ups for £25,000; half-brother to Italian 6f AW 2yo winner Slide To Glory; dam placed 5.5f-7f in France; stable's newcomers are usually best watched unless backed.. |

(12) (8/1 -100%)Tojoannie |
8/1(-100%) | (12) Tojoannie 8/1, 18 Mar; Calyx filly; sister to Budding Poet, moderate at 5f; dam fair at 10f; hooded on debut; top course trainer; likely go well. Third foal; out of a 1m2f/1m3f winner (RPR 69), half-sister to useful winners Snow Master (7f/1m) and Auld Toon Lune (1m2f); hails from strong yard but disconcerting to see headgear on from the outset.. |

9/1(-80%) | (11) Thespian Queen 9/1, 6 Jan; 26,000gns Time Test filly; half-sister to Eljowhary, useful at 8f; could contend on debut with yard capable of readying one. 26,000gns yearling; third foal; half-sister to 7f AW winner White Crown Star (RPR 85); dam unraced half-sister to winners Eleonora Duse (1m2f Group 2) and Scottish Stage (1m2f Listed; runner-up in Irish Oaks); one of only two fillies in the field but still one to bear in mind given her yard and pedigree.. |

9/1(-29%) | (10) Tredegar Square 9/1, 26 Feb; Land Force gelding; half-brother to Heathcliff, smart at 7f; dam fair at 6f; wide draw and probably best watched on debut. Eighth foal; half-brother to five winners including Heathcliff (Listed-placed 6f/7f AW; RPR 108), Isola Rossa (7f/1m; 94) and Glory Fighter (prolific 5f; 90); dam 6f winner (71), half-sister to smart 5f/6f winner Mazzini; has been gelded; drawn wide but some positives in his pedigree.. |

10/1(+17%) | (8) Dreamed 10/1, 2 Feb; 12,000gns Sergei Prokofiev colt; half-brother to Show Yourself, very useful at 5f; dam very useful at 7f; wide draw makes it tough on debut. 12,000gns yearling; eighth foal; half-brother to winners Show Yourself (5f; RPR 92), Yabrave (6f; 91), Engelbert (7f AW; 84) and Dream Painter (Italian 5.5f-1m1f); dam 7f 2yo winner (87); stable's 2yos are 0-19 this campaign.. |

14/1(-17%) | (9) Reichenbach Falls 14/1, 25 Apr; 6,500gns A'Ali colt; dam useful at 9f; tough enough task on debut and sort to need more time. 6,500gns yearling; second foal; dam placed 6f-9.4f AW (RPR 74), sister to 5f winner Raahy; one of two from this yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

20/1(-167%) | (7) Without Fail 20/1, 4 Apr; 28,000gns breeze-up purchase by Without Parole; dam very useful at 10f; looks an unlikely winner on debut. 28,000gns breeze-up buy in April; second foal; dam placed 1m2f (RPR 75), sister to useful 10.6f winner Tartlette; one to note in the betting.. |

(1) (25/1 -79%)Alam Rayan |
25/1(-79%) | (1) Alam Rayan 25/1, 6 Feb; 45,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Kameko; looks an unlikely winner on debut unless market suggests otherwise. 45,000euros breeze-up buy; first foal; out of an unraced sister to winners Harlem Nights (7f/1m) and Joolianoss (1m/1m2f); others appeal as more likely winners.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (25/1 +38%)Kiril |
25/1(+38%) | (4) Kiril 25/1, 20 Feb; Dream Ahead gelding; dam useful at 8f as a 2yo; this one makes limited appeal on debut. First foal; out of a 1m AW 2yo winner (sole start; RPR 69), out of unraced sister to 6f 2yo Listed winner Bogart and half-sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Blaine; already gelded but it makes sense to check the betting vibes.. |

This could be another informative maiden with a view to the future and it might be best to side with THESPIAN QUEEN. Eve Johnson Houghton's filly is related to a C&D winner and is really interesting on that basis, whilst she also has a potentially favourable draw. Clive Cox's youngsters typically merit respect and Playfull Warrior is no different and although hooded ahead of her debut, Tojoannie is still worth considering.

(3) (7/2 -27%)Star Cast |
7/2(-27%) | (3) Star Cast 7/2, Ran to form, scored with bit in hand landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; off a short-break; effective at 8-12f, acts on any but enjoys of plenty of give; in excellent form, might land hat-trick. Enjoying a fine year and garnered a sixth success in ten-runner handicap over C\u0026D in June; freshened up since and remains handily weighted despite a 5lb rise; big shout.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (9/2 -13%)Lorca's Waltz |
9/2(-13%) | (11) Lorca's Waltz 9/2, Lacked pace, below best beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Sandown last time; trainer in form; effective 7f, acts on good; nice enough type, should improve now upped to 10f. Lope De Vega gelding who resumed from five months off to land 7.5f maiden at Beverley in June; suffered a poor run on his handicap debut when fourth of five at Sandown (1m) 17 days ago and remains capable of better; likely player.. |

(2) (9/2 +25%)Spirit Of Acklam |
9/2(+25%) | (2) Spirit Of Acklam 9/2, Bit keen, back to best upped to 13f when landing a handicap by a neck off a 1lb lower mark at Hamilton last time; effective 8-13f, acts with cut, on good and AW; drop to 10f should be okay, can go well again. Resumed winning ways in 1m5f handicap at Hamilton last month; this C\u0026D scorer needs considering in refitted cheekpieces (won in them here) nudged up 1lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/2 +50%)Obito |
11/2(+50%) | (5) Obito 11/2, Yard won this last year; bit too free beaten 5l in a handicap at Doncaster last time; effective 8-10f, acts on heavy, good and probably fast ground; must bounce back after a couple of below par efforts. C\u0026D winner last summer; back in good form of late and posted a solid fifth of eight in 1m2f Doncaster handicap last month; in the mix once more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (11/2 +15%)Pearl Eye |
11/2(+15%) | (8) Pearl Eye 11/2, Below form fourth beaten 3l off 76 last time, same mark here; top course jockey/trainer combination; suited by 7-10f, acts on any; bounce back needed but is certainly capable. Already a dual winner for current yard, going in over C\u0026D in July; posted another solid effort with fourth of five over C\u0026D last time; can't be discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (15/2 +6%)Northwest Passage |
15/2(+6%) | (1) Northwest Passage 15/2, Below form when comfortably held in a handicap at Southwell last time; effective 8-11f; bounce back needed but certainly capable. Right back on song with second of 18 at York (1m2f) in June but only fifth of eight at Southwell (1m3f) since; needs to bounce back if he's to double his tally here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (8/1 +27%)Mano Chicago |
8/1(+27%) | (6) Mano Chicago 8/1, Ran to form when second beaten 3 1/2l in a maiden at Ballinrobe latest; stays 11f, acts on soft, good and AW; ex-Irish, consistent if a touch frustrating. Fair ex-Irish maiden who signed off for Johnny Murtagh with a good second of ten in 1m2f maiden at Ballinrobe in June; since changed hands for 48,000gns and not out of things for in-form yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (9/1 -29%)Ziata |
9/1(-29%) | (14) Ziata 9/1, Run of race, good attitude when winning a maiden at Windsor by a short-head last time; effective 7-10f on sound surface; big filly, likely more to come. Fair maiden for Ed Walker; made a winning start for new yard in five-runner maiden at Windsor (1m2f) two weeks ago; not out of things back in handicap company, although yard also has Star Cast in here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (12/1 +33%)Regalian |
12/1(+33%) | (4) Regalian 12/1, Again below form beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; effective 8/9f, acts on sound surface; well worth a try at 10f. Started out for current yard with encouraging Redcar sixth in June but he has failed to build on it in a pair of 1m Newcastle handicaps since; needs to take a step forward.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (40/1 -82%)Molinari |
40/1(-82%) | (12) Molinari 40/1, Below form but with excuses comfortably held in a handicap at Newcastle last time; effective 10-12f acts on soft, good to firm and AW; needs much more than of late. Winless since 2024 and this veteran has yet to fire in handicaps over C\u0026D and at Newcastle (1m4f) this summer; others appeal more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (66/1 -65%)Simply Ruby |
66/1(-65%) | (9) Simply Ruby 66/1, Below form when comfortably held in a handicap here last time; cheekpieces first time; suited by 12f, get bit further, acts on heavy and good to firm; bounce back needed. A fair 1m4f winner for Ed Walker in 2025; off ten months and failed to beat a rival on her yard debut in 1m5f handicap here four weeks ago; cheekpieces are reached for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (66/1 -65%)Cisco Disco |
66/1(-65%) | (10) Cisco Disco 66/1, Found little, below form when comfortably held in a handicap here last time; effective 8-10f, acts on soft and good, but not fast ground; course specialist, return to 10f a help. Scored four times here (three over C\u0026D) in 2025; yet to fire this season however and never threatened when sixth of nine over 1m here three weeks ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (66/1 -65%)Boy Named Sioux |
66/1(-65%) | (13) Boy Named Sioux 66/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 8l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 5-7f on good and AW; bounce back needed returning to turf. Gained a first win in 7f Southwell handicap in November but he has failed to kick on subsequently and beat just two in 7f Wolverhampton handicap last time; retried in a hood here.. |

Gemma Tutty has been amongst the winners of late and STAR CAST can add to the tally. The daughter of Almanzor has won four of her last six starts, including over C&D last time, and can once again find improvement to defy a further 5lb rise in the handicap. Her stable companion Ziata struck in a maiden at Windsor and isn't without a chance either, although both Hamilton scorer Spirit Of Acklam and Mano Chicago might represent bigger dangers.

(6) (7/2 +13%)Magical Life |
7/2(+13%) | (6) Magical Life 7/2, Ran to form beaten 3/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; wide draw; effective 5-7f; good chance here. Six-race maiden; seems to have some quirks but was beaten under 1l when third in recent Ffos Las nursery (7.3f, good); upped in trip for this AW return; could have a say.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/2 +30%)Bollengo Boy |
7/2(+30%) | (4) Bollengo Boy 7/2, Lacked pace beaten 7 1/2l in a novice at Windsor last time; type to do better now handicapping. Appeared to show improvement when sixth of seven in 6f Windsor novice a fortnight ago, on third start, but almost certainly needs to kick on again over this new trip on his nursery debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (4/1 +71%)Ten Of Clubs |
4/1(+71%) | (2) Ten Of Clubs 4/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a novice at Newbury most recent; trainer in form; speedily-bred; surely capable of better now handicapping. Well down the field in three 6f novice races and seemingly on a tough mark for this nursery debut; needs the step up in trip to unlock significant improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/2 -22%)Lushill |
11/2(-22%) | (3) Lushill 11/2, Ran to form 2l third in a maiden at Lingfield most recent run; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on good to firm; good chance again. Placed on last three appearances, most recently when third in 7f Lingfield maiden on AW debut on Tuesday; upped in trip for this nursery debut; ought to be very competitive again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/1 -133%)Hamdani Mokhater |
7/1(-133%) | (1) Hamdani Mokhater 7/1, Ran to form 4 1/2l third in a nursery at Catterick most recent run; blinkers first time; effective 7f on sound surface; more to offer now at 1m. Disappointing favourite when only third of four at Catterick last month but he went close on nursery debut at Leicester (also 7f, good to firm; first-time cheekpieces) two starts ago and has good claims if benefiting from the combination of new trip, switch to AW and first-time blinkers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/1 -125%)Lady Miranda |
9/1(-125%) | (5) Lady Miranda 9/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 8l in a novice at Newbury latest; sire sprinter, dam miler; type to do better now handicapping. Displayed minor promise on last two outings, more recently when fourth of seven at Newbury (6.5f, good to firm) last month; ought to be suited by this longer trip on this nursery debut; a possible.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 +13%)Emirates Express |
14/1(+13%) | (8) Emirates Express 14/1, No worthwhile form; blinkers first time; might do better now at 1m. Nearly 6l behind Magical Life when fifth of ten on recent nursery debut at Ffos Las (7.3f, good) and only 1lb better off with her here; upped in trip and fitted with blinkers for AW debut; clearly needs to improve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (14/1 +44%)Allaboutthelunch |
14/1(+44%) | (7) Allaboutthelunch 14/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a maiden at Leicester most recent; off a short-break; bred to want 10f in time, sound surfaces should suit action; might do better now handicapping. Well down the field in his three qualifying races in the spring (5f-7f); makes nursery debut from a basement mark but still needs to take a big step forward; recently gelded.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (20/1 -43%)Big Bad Storm |
20/1(-43%) | (9) Big Bad Storm 20/1, No worthwhile form; visor first time; speedily-bred; must settle better but looks up against it. Showed no promise and was beaten at least 17l on his first three appearances (6f-7f); upped in trip and fitted with first-time visor for this nursery debut.. |

Many of these could take a significant step forward now pitched into nurseries and LADY MIRANDA makes the most appeal. Her three novice/maiden runs weren't devoid of promise, but stepping up to a mile for first time should be a catalyst for improvement and an opening mark of 61 looks fair. Bollengo Boy shares a similar profile and is also of interest as a result, whilst the addition of first-time blinkers might sharpen Hamdani Mokhater up.

(6) (7/2 +65%)Lord Abama |
7/2(+65%) | (6) Lord Abama 7/2, Ran to form when fourth beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Thirsk latest; enjoys making it; effective 6f, acts on sound surface and AW; mark keeps easing, chance. On a long losing sequence and yet to hit top form this season, fourth of nine in 6f Thirsk handicap nine days ago; more is required despite a falling mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/2 +42%)Edmond Halley |
7/2(+42%) | (4) Edmond Halley 7/2, Late gains on British debut beaten 4l in a handicap at Catterick last time; trainer in form; effective 5/6f; could do better this time up to 6f. Modest maiden for Kieran Cotter in Ireland; off over three months before posting an encouraging fifth of nine on yard debut in 5f Catterick handicap 26 days ago, running on late; a player with that run under his belt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (6/1 -71%)Velvet Skies |
6/1(-71%) | (1) Velvet Skies 6/1, Ran to form beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; best at 6-8f, acts on heavy, good and AW; chance once again. On a losing run but he made a good start for new yard (formerly with Stephen Hanlon) with second of 12 in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 11 days ago; up 2lb but not taken lightly.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (13/2 +54%)Doon The Glen |
13/2(+54%) | (9) Doon The Glen 13/2, Lacked pace seventh beaten 6l off 51 last time, same mark here; top course jockey/trainer combination; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; unreliable, has never won off a mark this high. Gained a second success of 2026 at Hamilton (6f) in July; came in last of eight over 5f here a fortnight later, though, and was also disappointing over C\u0026D on Saturday.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (8/1 +20%)Henery Hawk |
8/1(+20%) | (3) Henery Hawk 8/1, Ran to form beaten 3/4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; suited by 5/6f, acts on sound surface; continues in decent form. Back to winning ways at Wolverhampton (5f) in April and largely in good form subsequently, third of eight in 5f handicap here two week ago; can make his presence felt eased 1lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/1 +0%)Head For Freedom |
10/1(+0%) | (5) Head For Freedom 10/1, Ran to form beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Doncaster last time; off a short-break; effective 5/6f, suited by a sound surface; could go well. Failed to build on earlier promise with fifth of 14 in 6f Doncaster handicap in June; more is needed if he's to double his tally here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (12/1 +14%)Baby Rover |
12/1(+14%) | (15) Baby Rover 12/1, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Hamilton last time; effective 6f, acts on soft and good to firm; inconsistent but capable. Got back on track with third of seven to Doon The Glen in 6f Hamilton handicap 25 days ago; she needs to back it up now if she's to double her career tally.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (12/1 +52%)Macedonian |
12/1(+52%) | (7) Macedonian 12/1, Below form tried in cheekpieces down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; visor first time; effective at 6f, acts on good and AW; drop to 6f a plus. Arrives out of sorts, tried in cheekpieces when last of nine in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 27 days ago; visor is tried here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 +30%)White Umbrella |
14/1(+30%) | (8) White Umbrella 14/1, Late gains off steady pace beaten 6l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 6/7f, most recent form on AW; competitively weighted. A dual 6f/7f AW winner in 2025; only eighth of 12 in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 11 days ago, and she's not proving easy to catch right this season.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (16/1 -45%)Sixcor |
16/1(-45%) | (12) Sixcor 16/1, Ran to form fourth in a classified race at Wolverhampton latest; effective 5/6f, probably best at minimum trip, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; back in form, entitled to be thereabouts once again. Scored over C\u0026D (fifth course victory) in July and not discredited with fourth of six in 5f classified event at Wolverhampton ten day ago; very much one to consider back here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (20/1 -67%)Pivotal Terms |
20/1(-67%) | (10) Pivotal Terms 20/1, Yard won this last year; below form beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; hood first time; effective 5-7f, acts on good and AW; bounce back needed. Got off the mark at Newcastle (6f) in April but her recent form is not so encouraging, tenth of 12 in 5f handicap there ten days ago; hood goes on now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (28/1 -75%)Ski Angel |
28/1(-75%) | (13) Ski Angel 28/1, Never in it after a slow start beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; effective 5f, acts on soft and good to firm; bounce back needed. Posted a good third over 5f here in June but she's beaten just one rival in two subsequent outings at Hamilton and back here; this course scorer needs to take a big step forward.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (50/1 -52%)Red Walls |
50/1(-52%) | (14) Red Walls 50/1, Below form well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton latest; suited by 6f, acts on AW, likes give on turf; best from the front but erratic. It's now 24 starts since his last victory though he shaped as if the run was needed after five months off when eighth of ten in 6f Wolverhampton handicap last month; needs to build on it.. |

VELVET SKIES made a pleasing start for the Gary Harrison stable when filling the runner-up spot over 7f at Wolverhampton last time and is just 2lb higher. This drop back a furlong in trip looks the right move and he is the way to go. Henery Hawk finished a close third over 5f here latest and needs to be taken seriously along with Baby Rover, who competes off a workable mark.

(12) (11/4 -10%)Fallacious Promise |
11/4(-10%) | (12) Fallacious Promise 11/4, Ran to form despite not best of runs second beaten 3/4l off 59 last time, 4lb higher here; trainer in form; suited by 1m-10f, acts on AW; going in the right direction, chance. Consistent gelding who won well at Lingfield (1m, AW) and with a clear run he might well have followed up off 6lb higher over C\u0026D a month ago (beaten by Roi De Coeur); up another 4lb but he was clear of the third last time and looks a good bet to give his running.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (10/3 +17%)Ballybunion |
10/3(+17%) | (8) Ballybunion 10/3, Ran to form up to 7f after a wind op beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective 6/7f; needs to settle now up to 1m. Twice runner-up as 2yo (6f); made some return to form after wind surgery when beaten 3l at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) where he got behind before running on; this extra furlong could benefit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (7/2 +46%)Shadowmere |
7/2(+46%) | (5) Shadowmere 7/2, Ran to form on handicap debut beaten 1 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Windsor last time; off a short-break; effective 7/8f; touch quirky but chance here. Absent for 79 days but he was returning from 223 days off when runner-up on handicap debut at Windsor (1m; made the running); that was his best form yet and he could improve again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (4/1 +27%)Roi De Coeur |
4/1(+27%) | (1) Roi De Coeur 4/1, Bit keen, run of race, ran to form second beaten 3/4l off 70 last time, same mark here; effective at 1m, acts on good to firm and AW; looks set to go well again. No good thing to confirm last month's course placings with Fallacious Promise and was found wanting off this 5lb higher mark at Yarmouth since; however, he's heading the right way and Luke Catton claims 3lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (10/1 +0%)Berkshire Boom |
10/1(+0%) | (10) Berkshire Boom 10/1, Below form beaten 5l in a handicap at Sandown last time; top course trainer; effective 7f, acts on soft and good; bounce back needed. 7f maiden winner at Chester; 0-5 in handicaps and when second there last month he was beaten 8l; beat one home at Sandown subsequently; not wildly appealing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (12/1 0%)Coxy's Star |
12/1(0%) | (9) Coxy's Star 12/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 1 1/4l in a novice at Southwell latest; effective 7f, acts on AW; more to come now handicapping over 1m. Has progressed with each run and she was keeping on when close up over 7f at Southwell (AW); this trip should suit on handicap debut and one to bear in mind.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (12/1 -71%)Something Coming |
12/1(-71%) | (3) Something Coming 12/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective at 7f, acts on AW; can go well back in a maiden. Placed three times, including when a close second in a 7f handicap here on reappearance; that was an improved effort and she's just 2lb higher now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (18/1 +18%)Alkumatic Jo Jo |
18/1(+18%) | (11) Alkumatic Jo Jo 18/1, Below form well beaten in a handicap at Southwell latest; effective 7-10f, acts on soft, good and AW; drop in trip may help. Has placed form but below par in her last two races and she's now 0-10; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (28/1 -100%)Battosai |
28/1(-100%) | (6) Battosai 28/1, Below form down to 1m when comfortably held in a handicap at Leicester last time; effective 7-12f, acts on sound surface; bit to prove. Left Brian Meehan for 14,000gns; now a nine-race maiden after finishing last of five on yard debut at Leicester (1m).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (28/1 -75%)Mojito |
28/1(-75%) | (2) Mojito 28/1, Step back in right direction beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; suited by 7f, acts on fast ground; surely capable of better. Successful handicap debut at Doncaster in the spring (7f, good to firm) but hasn't been close to that level since; moves up to 1m for the first time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (28/1 -56%)Santiago Boy |
28/1(-56%) | (4) Santiago Boy 28/1, Never threatened up in trip well beaten in a novice at Lingfield latest; blinkers first time; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on good and AW; type to do better when handicapping. Failed to progress in his qualifying runs and his hopes are pinned on first-time blinkers sparking improvement now switching to a handicap.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (33/1 0%)Athena's War |
33/1(0%) | (13) Athena's War 33/1, Below form tried in hood well beaten in a maiden at Lingfield latest; returning from a break; effective 7/8f; more needed now handicapping. Owned by former trainer Andrew Balding; ran to an ordinary level for him and went in a hood when last seen in March; has much to prove after a break on handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (66/1 +0%)Mehmas Engine |
66/1(+0%) | (14) Mehmas Engine 66/1, Again below form beaten 7l in a handicap here last time; wide draw; effective 5/6f; mark easing but needs more. Failed to progress from her debut run (5f, AW) in three further starts for James Tate; sold for 3,400gns in May and was down the field on stable debut here (first-time hood).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (66/1 +0%)Seu Jo |
66/1(+0%) | (7) Seu Jo 66/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a claimer at Wolverhampton most recent; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and AW; progressive in France, not matched that level yet in Britain. 1m AW win in France in March; three heavy defeats in handicaps for this yard (6f-1m) before another one in claiming company.. |

SHADOWMERE took a big step forward when filling the runner-up spot on his handicap debut at Windsor and was only raised 2lb for that effort. The son of Sea The Moon should have more in the locker and he looks the one to beat on this occasion. Coxy's Star outran her odds of 40/1 to finish fourth over 7f at Southwell last month and an opening mark of 65 looks workable. Roi De Coeur completes the shortlist.

(6) (3/1 -9%)Penelope's Sister |
3/1(-9%) | (6) Penelope's Sister 3/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; run of race, ran to form 4l third in a handicap here most recent run; top course trainer; effective 8-10f, acts on any; not ruled out. Won three times over 1m here last season; yet to hit top gear this year but was placed over C\u0026D (good to firm) a fortnight ago and remains well handicapped; dangerous to ignore.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/3 +44%)Lesrico |
10/3(+44%) | (1) Lesrico 10/3, Too keen beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Leicester last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; effective 8-10f, acts on soft, good and AW; needs to settle. Won on soft ground in the autumn and ran big race in defeat on reappearance outing at Haydock (1m3f, good to soft) in the spring, but disappointed on his next outing (again raced too freely) and is not easy to predict.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 -35%)Recobella |
9/2(-35%) | (8) Recobella 9/2, Improved on recent form back down in trip when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; suited by 10f, acts on soft and good; in form, remains competitively weighted. In good form this year, most recently when coming from the rear for C\u0026D (good) success five weeks ago; subsequent 3lb rise is offset by Jack Nicholls' claim today; likely contender again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (9/2 +10%)Naturalia |
9/2(+10%) | (3) Naturalia 9/2, Lacked pace when fourth beaten 6l in a handicap at Newcastle latest; top course jockey; effective 9f-13f, acts on soft and good; former course winner, chance here. Has modest 2-31 strike-rate but scores good marks for her consistency in recent months, having made the frame five consecutive times (once over C\u0026D); probably won't be far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (6/1 +67%)Idyllic |
6/1(+67%) | (5) Idyllic 6/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Newcastle most recent; effective 10-12f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; inconsistent but capable. Won twice off marks slightly higher than today's last season (1m3f/1m4f) and was seemingly back in good nick when running-on fourth over C\u0026D (good) last month, but suffered heavy defeat on AW 16 days ago and has become far too inconsistent to rely upon.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/1 +0%)Ravenscraig Castle |
9/1(+0%) | (7) Ravenscraig Castle 9/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap here latest; effective up to 2m on a sound surface; sort to go well. Largely consistent hurdler who returned to the Flat with respectable fourth (just behind Penelope's Sister) over C\u0026D (good to firm) a fortnight ago; 1lb lower today and might be better suited by the slightly slower ground; each-way claims at least.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (10/1 -11%)Precious Spartan |
10/1(-11%) | (4) Precious Spartan 10/1, Again below form beaten 7l in a handicap at Ripon last time; cheekpieces first time; suited by 1m and a sound surface; worth a shot at 10f. Did well for new stable last season, winning three times over 1m at Ripon; also suited by 1m2f, but launched this campaign with two low-key runs (7f/1m) and needs a good boost from the new cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (12/1 -20%)Positive Thoughts |
12/1(-20%) | (11) Positive Thoughts 12/1, Found little, below form beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; blinkers first time; effective 7/8.5f, acts on soft, good and AW; might be happier back on turf. Eight-race maiden; kept on for third of six at Hamilton (8.3f, good; wore cheekpieces) last month but safely held on AW since; sports first-time blinkers for first attempt at 1m2f; others appeal more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (22/1 -83%)King Chaos |
22/1(-83%) | (2) King Chaos 22/1, Again below form beaten 9 1/2l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; suited by 10-12f, acts on sound surface; bounce back needed. Scored over extended 1m4f on Tapeta in January and probably found 8.6f too sharp on that surface last month, after a break; should be fine back on turf but others have more persuasive profiles all the same.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (33/1 -65%)Lightning Galaxy |
33/1(-65%) | (9) Lightning Galaxy 33/1, Continued in poor form beaten 6l in a handicap here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good and fast ground; maiden looking exposed. 12-race maiden who has basically been disappointing this season (four runs; 6f-1m); moves up in trip with quite a bit to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (66/1 0%)She's Got Bottle |
66/1(0%) | (10) She's Got Bottle 66/1, Struggled late on and well beaten in a handicap at Newcastle latest; returning from long layoff; enjoys making it; effective around 1m, acts on soft and good; out of form under both codes. Regressive mare who was badly out of form when last seen in the autumn; needs to have been revitalised by subsequent break, and could be considered only if attracting market support.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (125/1 -150%)Parole Officer |
125/1(-150%) | (12) Parole Officer 125/1, Never in it from off the pace tried in cheekpieces down the field in a handicap here most recent; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft and AW; quite small, maiden now looking exposed. 11-race maiden who has finished well down the field on all three appearances this season, most recently when 100-1 over C\u0026D (good; first-time cheekpieces) last month.. |

It's hard to ignore the claims of RECOBELLA, who made her way through the field to score over track and trip last month and a 3lb rise might prove to be lenient. With Jack Nicholls negating that rise with his claim, she looks the one to beat. Three-time course winner Penelope's Sister showed more when third over C&D on her latest outing and is one to watch out for, while Lesrico is another to consider.

(2) (7/4 +50%)Flightofthephoenix |
7/4(+50%) | (2) Flightofthephoenix 7/4, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Nottingham last time; effective 8-10f, acts on good and AW; chance once again. 0-12 but has proved herself capable off higher marks than today's and ran second over 1m2f at Nottingham 11 days ago; kept on well that day and goes up in trip here; considered.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (7/2 +22%)Mohaab |
7/2(+22%) | (10) Mohaab 7/2, Ran to form up to 11f when second beaten 1 1/4l off 64 last time, same mark here; suited by 10/11f, acts on good and AW; consistent enough. 1m2f winner on turf in May when 6lb lower; solid runs in defeat since then, latterly over an extended 1m3f when Hot Silk was back in fourth; hasn't been as good on the AW (0-5) but perhaps unwise to count that against her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (9/2 +25%)Ghost Story |
9/2(+25%) | (3) Ghost Story 9/2, Ran to form when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton latest; trainer in form; stays 12f, acts on AW, suited by cut; chance once again. Dual 1m2f winner on ground slower than good; has performed just okay since returning from a break and whether she wants quite this far is open to debate.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (8/1 +0%)Hot Silk |
8/1(+0%) | (8) Hot Silk 8/1, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Leicester last time; stays 11f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; consistent, can go well again. Lightly raced filly who has been beaten 4l (extended 1m3f) and 2l (1m2f) in her two handicaps; has dropped 3lb and Harry Vigors now takes off another 5lb with his claim; should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (8/1 -78%)Shirakawa |
8/1(-78%) | (9) Shirakawa 8/1, Bit keen, ran to form second beaten 2 1/4l off 64 last time, 1lb higher here; stays 11f, acts on sound surface; chance once again. Has won two of her four handicaps (the wins at 1m2f) and attempted to bite her rider's stick last time at Sandown, losing some focus in the process; she wouldn't have won but could have been closer; just 1lb higher now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (14/1 -17%)Kurios Lady |
14/1(-17%) | (1) Kurios Lady 14/1, Below form beaten 9l in a handicap at Doncaster last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; suited by 11f, acts on good and AW; drop in trip a plus. Competitive without winning for James Tate, whom she left for 6,000gns; ran well on her previous visit to this track and not without hope.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (18/1 -177%)Sullom Voe |
18/1(-177%) | (5) Sullom Voe 18/1, Flattered comfortably held in a maiden here last time; off a short-break; bred for middle-distances; could improve now handicapping. Well held in her first three races (1m2f/1m3f), the latest over C\u0026D; however, she's well bred and should be a different proposition now handicapping at a lowly level.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (20/1 -100%)Celestial Cen |
20/1(-100%) | (6) Celestial Cen 20/1, Found little, below form when fourth beaten 15l in a novice at Nottingham latest; effective 10f, acts on soft and good; more to come now handicapping. Disappointing last time but realistically treated for this handicap debut on her two initial efforts (1m2f); AW debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (20/1 -43%)Connie Moon |
20/1(-43%) | (4) Connie Moon 20/1, Below form but with excuses well beaten in a handicap here latest; effective up to 10-12f, acts on good and AW; dropping in trip. Nine-race maiden whose best effort was a third of 13 at Goodwood (1m2f, good; first-time cheekpieces) in June 2025; opposable on subsequent AW exploits (visored in the last two races) and she's been off since February.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (50/1 -150%)Antiquarian |
50/1(-150%) | (7) Antiquarian 50/1, Below form up in class when down the field in a novice at Lingfield most recent; off a short-break; some speed in pedigree; likely flattered penultimate start, bit to prove now handicapping. Struggled at big prices in her qualifying runs and this initial mark looks on the high side unless she can find major improvement.. |

Shirakawa came up just short when bidding for her hat-trick at Sandown and should remain competitive, but MOHAAB finished a creditable second at Windsor in June and races off an unchanged mark. The daughter of Mohaather is unexposed over this trip and might have a bit more improvement to come. Flightofthephoenix bounced back to form when runner-up at Nottingham and isn't out of this either.

(2) (9/4 +36%)Royal Blaze |
9/4(+36%) | (2) Royal Blaze 9/4, Ran to best, good attitude landing a handicap by a neck off a 4lb lower mark here last time; wants 9-12f nowadays, acts on fast turf and AW; fair mark still and in fine form. In-form 5yo who won twice over C\u0026D last month (good/good to firm); probably doesn't have much margin for error after latest 4lb rise but ought to be on the premises again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/2 +18%)Tee Aitch Aye |
9/2(+18%) | (5) Tee Aitch Aye 9/2, Back to form beaten 2l off this mark here last time; cheekpieces first time; usually held up; effective 9/10f, acts on the softer side of good; 6lb below last winning mark, chance if building on latest. Slow to find his form this season, but his keeping-on third behind Royal Blaze over C\u0026D (good) last month was a big step back in the right direction and he might be seen to even better effect if there's a stronger pace for him to chase today; sports first-time cheekpieces; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 0%)Ceinture D'orion |
9/2(0%) | (8) Ceinture D'orion 9/2, Ran to form up to 10f beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Nottingham last time; effective 1m-10f on sound surface; more to come in handicaps. Unexposed 3yo; just a respectable fourth of six on handicap debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good to firm) last month but could quite plausibly still have potential.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (6/1 +25%)Sweet Kiss |
6/1(+25%) | (4) Sweet Kiss 6/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; suited by 10/11f, acts on heavy, good to firm and AW; can go well again. Yet to win this season but came from quite a long way off the pace for clear second at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) last month and remains on a workable mark; has possibilities if this race is run to suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +33%)Spirit Catcher |
6/1(+33%) | (3) Spirit Catcher 6/1, Ran to form beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Chester last time; effective 8-12f, acts on any; drop in trip shouldn't be an issue. Bounced back to form with win off much-reduced mark at Musselburgh (1m1f, good) in April and came second on his next two outings; not seen to best effect when held up in steadily run race at Chester last month, but has quickly dropped back to a workable mark; high on the list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (13/2 +7%)West Tyrone |
13/2(+7%) | (1) West Tyrone 13/2, Ran to form up to 11f beaten a length off this mark at Carlisle last time; off a short-break; effective 8-11f, acts on good to soft, fast and AW; chance if building on latest. Front-runner; started off for new stable with two down-the-field runs over 1m in the spring, but fared much better when third at Carlisle (1m3f, good to soft) in June and remains on a good mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (8/1 +11%)Motawaared |
8/1(+11%) | (6) Motawaared 8/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; needed run after a wind op beaten 6l in a handicap here last time; top course jockey/trainer combination; effective 1m/9f, acts on good to soft and AW; should come on for latest. 12-race maiden; didn't run badly when sixth over C\u0026D (good to firm; first run after wind op) three weeks ago and continues to slip down the weights, but needs to find something extra today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (12/1 -33%)Glasses Up |
12/1(-33%) | (7) Glasses Up 12/1, Yard has won last two runnings of race; ran to form albeit lacked pace down to 10f fourth beaten 6l off 53 last time, 4lb higher here; effective 9-13f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; veteran on a competitive mark still, ideally wants further now. Veteran who led close home over 1m5f here (good to firm) last month, his 13th success; also suited by this shorter trip, but was effectively 3lb below that last winning mark when only fourth over C\u0026D a week later and his new mark has taken effect; younger rivals look better treated.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (20/1 -67%)Rugby Union |
20/1(-67%) | (11) Rugby Union 20/1, Step back in right direction beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Windsor last time; effective 10f on good to firm; could have more to offer yet. Made encouraging stable/handicap debut when fifth at Wetherby (1m2f, good to firm) in June, but two lesser efforts have followed and he arrives here with something to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (40/1 -150%)Farabove The Limit |
40/1(-150%) | (10) Farabove The Limit 40/1, Every chance and seemed to stay 10f when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Newcastle latest; stays 10f, needs stiff test at 1m, acts on AW; seems to have found level. Seven-race maiden; ran fairly well when upped to 1m2f on Tapeta in February but we haven't seen him since; gelded in April; considered only if lively in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (40/1 -60%)Cosmic Man |
40/1(-60%) | (9) Cosmic Man 40/1, Never in it from off the pace up to 9f well beaten in a handicap at Carlisle latest; off a short-break; effective 6f, acts on soft and good; stamina to prove still. Unable to land a telling blow in his first three handicaps (7f-1m1f); in good hands and not written off just yet, but others in this line-up have much more obvious claims.. |

Royal Blaze successfully completed a C&D double on his most recent start and holds an obvious chance to go in again, but the vote goes to SWEET KISS. Tim Easterby's filly produced a better display when taking the silver medal home over this trip at Newcastle and a similar effort might suffice. Tee Aitch Aye sports first-time cheekpieces and also merits consideration.

(1) (2/1 +33%)Believitanducan |
2/1(+33%) | (1) Believitanducan 2/1, Improved again landing the Northumberland Vase by a length off a 5lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; effective 14-16f, acts on soft, good and AW; progressive stayer, respected once again. Won at up to almost 2m5f as hurdler so he's a strong stayer; back to the Flat with two wins on good ground (Ascot and Chester) and another on AW at Newcastle in winning the 20-runner Northumberland Vase; up another 5lb (Luke Catton's claim eases 3lb of that) but has track form and strongly considered.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (4/1 +0%)Desert Belle |
4/1(+0%) | (12) Desert Belle 4/1, Yard won this last year; travelled, ran to form tried in cheekpieces beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 12-16f, acts on AW; more to come, chance here. 1m4f novice winner; 11-4 or shorter when runner-up in her last three handicaps, the latest here when headed late on in first-time cheekpieces; it could be she was in front early enough (travelled well) but unwise to keep making excuses; nudged up 2lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/2 +36%)Double Meaning |
9/2(+36%) | (7) Double Meaning 9/2, Ran to form beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Sandown last time; off a short-break; effective 12-16f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; can go well again. 1m6f and 2m wins on the AW last season and by clear daylight; excellent third at Newmarket (1m4f) after a break and it wasn't a bad run at Sandown (1m6f) where he hung in the closing stages; could be a factor if bringing his best game.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (15/2 +38%)Killer Whale |
15/2(+38%) | (11) Killer Whale 15/2, Outpaced late when fourth beaten 8l in a handicap at Doncaster latest; top course trainer; off a short-break; effective 12-14f, acts on good to firm and AW; likeable attitude and ought to relish 2m here. Progressive AW form (1m-1m4f) and took a strong hold when fourth of six on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m6f); there should be more to come from him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (15/2 -7%)Maxident |
15/2(-7%) | (3) Maxident 15/2, Ran to form when second beaten 5l in a handicap at Goodwood latest; off a short-break; effective 1m6f-2m2f, acts on heavy, soft and AW; tough and consistent front-runner, will make this a test. Close up in his one previous run on the AW; dual turf winner on heavy ground over 1m4f and 1m6f; beaten 5l by an exposed 8yo last time at Goodwood (2m, soft) having been clear at one stage; has a big run in him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (9/1 -50%)Senor Cortez |
9/1(-50%) | (4) Senor Cortez 9/1, Ran to form, good attitude landing a handicap by a length off a 4lb lower mark at Lingfield last time; trainer in form; effective 14-16f, acts on good, fast ground and AW; chance again here. Has turned things around with wins at Southwell (1m6f) and Lingfield (1m5f), latterly defying a penalty by one length; the 4lb rise could find him out in this higher grade and Jack Callan, who was aboard for those wins, no longer claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (10/1 -11%)Premiere Ligne |
10/1(-11%) | (6) Premiere Ligne 10/1, Travelled, ran to form beaten 4l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; stays 2m4f, acts on good and good to firm; needs more. Did well in 2024 and then had 592 days off the track; signs of rediscovering his form when 4l behind Believitanducan in the Northumberland Vase (2m AW); dropped 3lb and in the mix.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 -75%)Knight Templar |
14/1(-75%) | (8) Knight Templar 14/1, Ran to form beaten 1 1/2l off this mark at Sandown last time; effective 12-16f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; generally consistent, should remain competitive. Had a productive year over hurdles and on the Flat, last time returning from a break and boxing on for second at Sandown (1m6f); he was bang there over C\u0026D the time before; solid chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (28/1 -100%)Barenboim |
28/1(-100%) | (9) Barenboim 28/1, Run of race, ran to form beaten 3/4l off this mark here last time; effective up to 16-18f, most recent form on AW; competitive mark, can go well again. Six AW wins include two here and it was at this venue where he was headed late on over C\u0026D a month ago; he did have the run of things up front that day, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (28/1 -12%)Rock N Roll Pinkie |
28/1(-12%) | (5) Rock N Roll Pinkie 28/1, Never in it from off the pace, eased down the field in a handicap at York most recent; usually held up; effective 14-16f, acts on any; bounce back needed. Record of 6-25 on turf but 0-10 on the AW; this year started off okay but after predictably struggling in a Group 3 she's disappointed in a couple of handicaps; needs to get back on track.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (50/1 -127%)Kingdom Of Stars |
50/1(-127%) | (10) Kingdom Of Stars 50/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 12l in a handicap at Chester latest; off a short-break; effective 14-16f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; consistent stayer on Flat. Pulled up in successive handicap hurdles before beaten about 11l in a 2m handicap at Chester; has a bit to prove, but encouraging that best Flat form has been on this surface.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (66/1 -32%)Scottish Anthem |
66/1(-32%) | (2) Scottish Anthem 66/1, Every chance, ran to form on handicap debut when 9 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle at Southwell most recent run; off a short-break; effective 2m; in moderate form. Both wins came in 2022 when trained in France; returning to the Flat for the first time this year when the race was voided at Wolverhampton; he was 50-1 that day.. |

Northumberland Vase winner Believitanducan is bound to have his supporters as he bids to complete the four-timer, but a 5lb rise for that Gosforth Park triumph might leave him vulnerable. With that in mind, a chance can be taken on BARENBOIM, who outran his odds of 66/1 to finish a close third over track and trip last month. Tom Dascombe's charge is able to race off an unchanged mark and he could represent the value. Maxident is another to note.

(3) (7/2 +13%)Keep An Eye On It |
7/2(+13%) | (3) Keep An Eye On It 7/2, Ran to form beaten 3l off this mark at Musselburgh last time; returning from a break; effective 7f/1m; more to come. Finished well to go close on handicap debut at Southwell (7f, AW) in April and he backed that up with a creditable third at Musselburgh (1m, good); returns after 120 days off but he's still unexposed and that latest form has been well advertised by the runner-up since; respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (4/1 -14%)Paroda Diva |
4/1(-14%) | (6) Paroda Diva 4/1, Ran to form second beaten 1 1/2l off 65 last time, same mark here; off a short-break; best at 1m; leading claims. Has a patchy profile but she returned to form with a win at Haydock (1m, good to soft) in May and backed that up with a good second at Ripon (1m, good) the following month; now goes back up in grade but she's respected off same mark as last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (5/1 +0%)Hatamoto |
5/1(+0%) | (9) Hatamoto 5/1, Below form but with excuses sixth beaten 6l off 60 last time, same mark here; effective around 1m on sound surface; could bounce back. Came good with wins at Beverley (8.4f) and Thirsk (1m, again on good to firm) last month and had an excuse in his hat-trick bid at Southwell (suffered interference) two weeks ago; only 2lb higher than for his last success and he could kick on again back on turf.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/1 +42%)Napolian |
7/1(+42%) | (1) Napolian 7/1, Step back in the right direction, but still below best fourth beaten 5 1/4l off 70 last time; effective 1m on good to firm; chance here. Beat a 1-9 shot in a match at Leicester (1m, good to firm) in June, but struggled at York next time before being well held at Beverley 13 days ago; record is now 1-8 and others are more convincing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (15/2 +25%)Vega Storm |
15/2(+25%) | (7) Vega Storm 15/2, Below form beaten 7l in a handicap at Catterick last time; effective 6/7f; needs more now upped to 1m. Unexposed gelding but he's not really progressed and was a well-held sixth behind Wise Crack at Catterick (7f, good to firm) last time; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (15/2 +46%)Light The Night Up |
15/2(+46%) | (8) Light The Night Up 15/2, Didn't stay 10f beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap here last time; best around 1m; could bounce back down in trip Reached the frame in her first three handicaps but her form has gone in the wrong direction in two runs this summer; may have been stretched when upped to 1m2f here last time but she's now 0-8 and others are more persuasive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (8/1 -78%)Wise Crack |
8/1(-78%) | (5) Wise Crack 8/1, Bit keen but improved to get off the mark tried in a visor landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Catterick last time; effective 7f on good to firm; good claims here. Made the breakthrough with a visor added when finishing well to land a Catterick handicap (7f, good to firm; 18-1) last month; up 3lb but he still looks feasibly treated on that latest form and is open to more progress back up in trip; key player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 -50%)Adiada |
12/1(-50%) | (2) Adiada 12/1, Bit below form when fourth beaten 9 1/2l in a novice at Newcastle latest; returning from long layoff; effective around 1m; chance on handicap debut. Her standout effort in three 2yo runs was a close call on soft ground at Beverley (8.4f) on her second start; returns after 293 days off but she should have more to offer now switched to a handicap and it would be a positive if the forecast rain arrives; needs a close look in the market.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (22/1 -83%)Beckon |
22/1(-83%) | (4) Beckon 22/1, Lacked pace down to 7f beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time; returning from a break; effective 7f/1m; could have a say. Won a Newcastle novice (1m, AW) in December but she was vulnerable switched to handicaps in her final two runs for Harry Charlton; changed hands for 22,000gns in April; still lightly raced but she needs resume her progress after 117 days off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (33/1 -83%)Our Randolph |
33/1(-83%) | (10) Our Randolph 33/1, Again ran to a poor level down the field in a novice at Wetherby most recent; off a short-break; bit to find on what we've seen so far. Has a good pedigree but struggled in three novice events, most recently when tailed off on Wetherby reappearance in June; still early days but he needs a transformation on his handicap debut.. |

Adiada showed ability in her three starts in novice company as a juvenile and warrants a market check on her return/handicap debut. However, KEEP AN EYE ON IT wasn't disgraced in third over this trip at Musselburgh in April and he could have more to offer on just his third start in the handicap ranks. Beckon and Light The Night Up are others to watch out for.

(8) (6/4 +75%)Nod Of Approval |
6/4(+75%) | (8) Nod Of Approval 6/4, Slowly away beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Galway last time; usually held up; more needed. Fair 75-rated maiden on the Flat; interesting juvenile hurdle prospect on pedigree, being a half-brother to useful jumpers Puturhandstogether and Showurappreciation.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (11/4 +31%)Minella Buoy |
11/4(+31%) | (4) Minella Buoy 11/4, Did not get a clear run when second beaten a neck in a maiden hurdle at Killarney latest; looks pick on race times. Beat very few rivals in three Flat maidens last year; sixth of 14 on Flat handicap debut at Gowran; stepped up on his modest Flat form when second on hurdles debut at Killarney, solid chance. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (9/2 0%)Sofi's Gift |
9/2(0%) | (13) Sofi's Gift 9/2, When second beaten 1 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Limerick latest; the pick on balance of form. Weak Flat form; overcame some interference to finish a promising second on hurdles debut at Limerick; has an edge over Nicky Larson and Words Unspoken; stable in great form with a treble at Kilbeggan on Saturday.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (11/2 -22%)Nicky Larson |
11/2(-22%) | (7) Nicky Larson 11/2, Well backed 3l third in a maiden hurdle at Limerick most recent run; open to marked improvement. Showed some ability on the Flat, rated 65, made the frame in two handicaps; split Sofi's Gift and Words Unspoken when third at Limerick on hurdles debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (11/1 +0%)No Bother Aoife |
11/1(+0%) | (11) No Bother Aoife 11/1, Travelled well when fourth beaten 3l in a maiden hurdle at Killarney latest; not out of it. Rated 51 on the Flat after seven runs; fair fourth on hurdles debut at Killarney but looks held by runner-up Minella Buoy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (11/1 -29%)Divine Believer |
11/1(-29%) | (10) Divine Believer 11/1, Appeared not to stay beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap here last time. 61-rated maiden on the Flat; has questions to answer after his two most recent starts, last of eight at Leopardstown and seventh of nine at this venue; coming from this source, quite possible she will improve considerably for the switch to jumping.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (18/1 -29%)Mount Eden |
18/1(-29%) | (6) Mount Eden 18/1, Outpaced, promising hurdle debut 6l third in a juvenile hurdle at Hexham most recent run; off a short-break; effective 2m; looks strong stayer at 2m. Modest Flat form for Donnacha O'Brien; will need to step up from hurdling debut at Hexham; third in a six-runner, the second has won two small-field events since then.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (20/1 -135%)Motherland |
20/1(-135%) | (5) Motherland 20/1, 58,000 euros Sioux Nation gelding; dam useful at 10f; top trainer. Third foal; Sioux Nation gelding is a brother to a Polish 7f winner, half-brother to Polish 1m 2yo winner; dam, by Wootton Bassett, French 1m 2yo winner, half-sister to Flat/hurdle/chase winner Fast Buck.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (22/1 -57%)Words Unspoken |
22/1(-57%) | (9) Words Unspoken 22/1, Made too much use of well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Killarney latest; hood first time; effective 2m, acts on good; should improve a little for initial experience. Not far behind Sofi's Guest and Nicky Larson at Limerick; has more to find with Minella Buoy, No Bother Aoife and Divelment on Killarney running.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (40/1 -186%)Divelment |
40/1(-186%) | (3) Divelment 40/1, Yard won this last year; below par comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Killarney last time; open to marked improvement. Placed on the Flat at Roscommon last year and twice on AW earlier this year; held by Minella Buoy and No Bother Aoife on running over hurdles at Killarney.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (50/1 -79%)Sands Castle |
50/1(-79%) | (12) Sands Castle 50/1, Looked to want further beaten 9l in a handicap at Gowran Park last time; hood first time; more needed. Second at this track in June was the highlight of her Flat form; disappointing when favourite at Gowran last time; hooded now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (80/1 -60%)Camp Verde |
80/1(-60%) | (1) Camp Verde 80/1, 5,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Arizona. Half-brother to Arizona to a Scandinavian Flat/hurdles winner; dam unraced; best watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (125/1 -25%)Connor Of Mali |
125/1(-25%) | (2) Connor Of Mali 125/1, Below par down the field in a maiden hurdle at Killarney most recent; plenty to find. Jumped poorly and pulled up at Limerick on debut; tailed off in the Killarney race in which Minella Buoy was second.. |

SOFI'S GIFT shaped with real promise in behind a progressive rival, who went on to follow up at the Galway Festival, when second at Limerick on her hurdling bow. Ciaran Murphy's filly can now reap the rewards of that previous experience to go one place better, although Minella Buoy did go agonisingly close at Killarney and must be given the utmost respect. Nicky Larson finished behind the selection last time but is no back number, nor is the Henry de Bromhead-trained Divine Believer.

(5) (1/1 -10%)Mythological Star |
1/1(-10%) | (5) Mythological Star 1/1, Improved to get off the mark on handicap debut landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; trainer in form; effective 7/8f on a sound surface; more to come up to 10f. Low-mileage 3yo who justified odds-on favouritism when scoring on handicap debut at Ffos Las (1m, good; front pair clear) on Tuesday; bred to be suited by today's step up in trip and probably still well treated under 6lb penalty; makes obvious appeal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (7/2 +13%)Just An Hour |
7/2(+13%) | (2) Just An Hour 7/2, Lacked pace down to 10f beaten 3 1/2l off this mark at Newbury last time; effective 10-14f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; usually reliable, can go well again. Consistent 6yo who was placed at Newbury (1m2f, good to firm) last month and remains 1lb lower than when scoring over C\u0026D (good to firm) just over a year ago; ought to be right in the thick of things.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (6/1 +0%)Shady Bay |
6/1(+0%) | (1) Shady Bay 6/1, Lacked pace down in trip when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap here latest; effective at 10/11f, acts on sound surface; can go well again. Looked as good as ever when scoring in good style on seasonal debut at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in April but subsequent efforts, though respectable, suggest she's a shade vulnerable off her current mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (8/1 -14%)Golden Circet |
8/1(-14%) | (3) Golden Circet 8/1, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Epsom last time; effective 8-12f on Flat, 2m over hurdles, acts on a sound surface; generally consistent. Pretty consistent on the Flat and over hurdles this year and has dropped 1lb since his recent fourth at Epsom (1m2f, good to firm); visor (worn for last four races) is left off here; probably won't be far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (10/1 +0%)Hello Cotai |
10/1(+0%) | (6) Hello Cotai 10/1, Below form fourth beaten 7l off 66 last time, same mark here; suited by 10f, acts on any; remains fairly treated if bouncing back. Scored over C\u0026D (good to firm) in June and was close third off today's mark at Epsom (1m2f, good) last month; needs to bounce back from a lesser effort a fortnight later but still enters calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (10/1 +17%)Post Rider |
10/1(+17%) | (4) Post Rider 10/1, Didn't stay 12f beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 8/9f, acts on soft, fast ground and AW; mark easing but needs more. Ought to be suited by combination of drop back in trip and return to turf, but has not been firing on all cylinders this season and has a lot more to prove than some of these.. |

MYTHOLOGICAL STAR is likely to be a warm order after making a successful handicap debut at Ffos Las recently. A 6lb penalty should be no barrier to further success, especially because his finishing effort on that occasion suggested a step up in trip would be of real benefit. Just An Hour wasn't disgraced at Newbury and now has Charli Parker taking a handy 7lb off his back, whilst it would be unwise to rule out Shady Bay, who receives a welcome drop in class.

(11) (4/6 +16%)How's Ellie |
4/6(+16%) | (11) How's Ellie 4/6, Raced freely when second beaten 6 1/2l in a maiden hurdle here latest; trainer in form; effective 2m, acts on good; likely more to come for top yard. Beaten favourite but not a bad run in first bumper at Galway last October, beaten 9l in fifth; not as good next time at Tramore; unfancied when a moderate sixth on hurdles debut at Roscommon; still looked raw when second at this venue last month; capable of picking up a modest race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (5/1 +9%)Texas Red |
5/1(+9%) | (7) Texas Red 5/1, When fourth beaten 7l in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; cheekpieces first time; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on good, yielding; has shown minor promise but needs more. Fair bumper form last year for Ronnie O'Leary; mildly encouraging hurdles debut for new yard at Downpatrick; will not need to improve much from his Kilbeggan fourth to feature here; cheekpieces added. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (15/2 -7%)Crystal Mariner |
15/2(-7%) | (1) Crystal Mariner 15/2, Raced freely when fourth beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap at Southwell latest; value selection based on balance of form. Four wins in Britain, best on AW; reached a peak rating of 85 after two Kempton wins last year; not at his best in recent months; however, he is race-fit and the bar is set low for his hurdles debut; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (12/1 -60%)Boo Radley |
12/1(-60%) | (3) Boo Radley 12/1, Probably needed race down the field in a maiden hurdle at Sligo most recent; trainer in form; tongue-tie first time; bit to find. Started favourite for a Roscommon bumper last August, well beaten, found to be blowing hard; raced keenly when again a beaten favourite at Tramore in October, very tame effort on hurdles debut at Sligo last month; tongue-tie on now; trainer also runs How's Ellie.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 -41%)Be My Fortune |
12/1(-41%) | (2) Be My Fortune 12/1, Below par well beaten in a bumper at Downpatrick latest; hard to recommend. Some promise in points for Rob James; hard to be confident after a poor bumper run at Downpatrick on his first start for Gordon Elliott.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (20/1 -67%)Tiffany Case |
20/1(-67%) | (15) Tiffany Case 20/1, Well beaten in a maiden hurdle here only start; needs to improve. Reported to be blowing after her debut at Ballinrobe, a long way behind How's Ellie then; probably capable of much better, needs to provide reassurance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (22/1 +0%)Salty Racer |
22/1(+0%) | (6) Salty Racer 22/1, 24l fourth in a maiden at Fairyhouse first-time out; returning from a break; all to do. Soundly beaten when fourth of five finishers in a point; positives in the pedigree; brother to bumper winner Getaway Vic, half-brother to hurdle/chase winner Lightkeeper; dam bumper and useful hurdle/chase winner.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (28/1 -56%)Hurling Academy |
28/1(-56%) | (8) Hurling Academy 28/1, Well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan only start; outside chance. Soldier Of Fortune gelding; half-brother to 2m hurdle winner Harty Cup; dam bumper/2m4f hurdle winner, half-sister to useful chase winner Sraid Padraig; Never involved first time out at Kilbeggan, likely to need more experience, in good hands.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (66/1 -100%)Sea Limit |
66/1(-100%) | (14) Sea Limit 66/1, Modest effort well beaten in a maiden at Dromahane only start; returning from a break; showed little in a point. Remote sixth on her only point-to-point start; some positives in the pedigree, sister to a bumper/chase winner, half-sister to two other winners.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (80/1 -100%)Certosa |
80/1(-100%) | (10) Certosa 80/1, Comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Limerick last time; off a short-break; effective 2m; lots to prove. Weak form in bumpers and over hurdles; big price when a remote fifth at Limerick in May.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (100/1 -25%)Rockstar Rebel |
100/1(-25%) | (5) Rockstar Rebel 100/1, 4,500 euros Hillstar gelding; half-brother to Shining Silver, moderate at 17f. Hillstar gelding whose dam (by Beneficial) won a bumper and a maiden hurdle.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (150/1 -50%)Discrete |
150/1(-50%) | (4) Discrete 150/1, Below par down the field in a bumper at Kilbeggan most recent; off a short-break; all to do. Weak overall form in points after debut third; in rear in a Kilbeggan bumper in June.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (150/1 -20%)Lexenna |
150/1(-20%) | (13) Lexenna 150/1, Below par well beaten in a Mares bumper at Sligo latest; bred to be a stayer; longer trip a plus but plenty more needed. No encouragement can be taken from her bumper runs at Limerick and Sligo.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (150/1 +0%)Kalinka De Loire |
150/1(+0%) | (16) Kalinka De Loire 150/1, No worthwhile form; tongue-tie first time; off a short-break; all to do. Three failures to complete in point-to-points; tongue-tie on for racecourse debut; reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (150/1 +25%)Trev The Rev |
150/1(+25%) | (9) Trev The Rev 150/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; yet to complete, all to prove. Pulled up in maiden hurdles at Limerick and Galway, massive odds on both occasions.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (200/1 -60%)Leva Deva |
200/1(-60%) | (12) Leva Deva 200/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; off a short-break; impossible to make a case for back hurdling. Two runs at Sligo, pulled up in a maiden hurdle and tailed off in a bumper.. |

In a race lacking depth it looks best to stick with the Willie Mullins-trained HOW'S ELLIE, who left a disappointing hurdling bow behind to fill the runner-up spot over 2m1f here last month. The daughter of Jet Away looks certain to progress again, although she wouldn't need to find bags of improvement on this occasion. Texas Red was far from disgraced at Kilbeggan and might prove to be the main threat, whilst Crystal Mariner tackles an obstacle for the first time having shown a fair level of ability on the Flat.

(1) (4/5 +47%)Harry Knows |
4/5(+47%) | (1) Harry Knows 4/5, Travelled, scored with loads in hand tried in cheekpieces when winning a novice here by 4 1/4l last time; top course jockey; effective 5/6f on soft and good to firm; obvious chance once again now handicapping. Delivered on earlier promise when emphatic winner of C\u0026D (good to firm) novice in first-time cheekpieces a fortnight ago and has the services of Oisin Murphy again for this nursery debut; commands respect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/2 -56%)This Moment |
7/2(-56%) | (3) This Moment 7/2, Bit keen, ran to form when second beaten a neck in a novice at Ffos Las latest; trainer in form; effective 6f, acts on good; more to come now handicapping. Showed similar level of form in all three novice races, most recently when close second at Ffos Las (6f, good) six weeks ago; gelded in the meantime; open to improvement in nurseries.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (4/1 -20%)Keep Kicking On |
4/1(-20%) | (2) Keep Kicking On 4/1, Improved to get off the mark landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; effective 6f on soft and good to firm; more to come, good chance. Kept on well to make winning nursery debut over C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; subsequent 5b rise demands more from him but he still needs to be taken very seriously.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/1 -17%)Everatease |
7/1(-17%) | (4) Everatease 7/1, Bit keen, never involved down the field in a nursery at Goodwood most recent; in good form prior; effective 5f/6f, acts on a sound surface; done his winning at selling level. Won two quite valuable sellers (both 6f, good) this spring, but was soundly beaten after racing too freely on recent nursery debut at Glorious Goodwood (7f, good to firm); in calmer waters here and may benefit from the drop back in trip, but others have more convincing claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (20/1 +20%)El Lambo |
20/1(+20%) | (5) El Lambo 20/1, Bit keen, lacked pace beaten 6l in a nursery here last time; effective 6f on sound surface; bounce back needed. Won Bath maiden (5.7f, firm) by wide margin in May, but was last of six after refusing to settle in C\u0026D nursery won by Keep Kicking On three weeks ago; now has a point to prove.. |

Harry Knows deservedly got his day in the sun in a C&D novice a fortnight ago and is entitled to the utmost respect, but he might need a bit more if he's to defy a mark of 86. With that in mind preference is afforded to KEEP KICKING ON, who also struck over track and trip last time. Clive Cox's colt is 5lb higher this time around but that looks far from insurmountable and further success might be on the cards. This Moment heads the remainder.

(14) (3/1 +25%)Chemdawg |
3/1(+25%) | (14) Chemdawg 3/1, Did not get a clear run beaten 1/2l off a 16lb lower mark at Limerick last time; off a short-break; effective 12f on the Flat, acts on soft; needs more returned to this sphere. Took a long time to win a race over hurdles but has been in fine form in recent months; deserved her breakthrough win at Kilbeggan; suffered interference when chasing home an easy winner at Limerick; transferred her form to the Flat when second at 25-1 in a 1m4f contest at the same venue; good chance off a light weight.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (10/3 -11%)Koeur A Prendre |
10/3(-11%) | (11) Koeur A Prendre 10/3, Improved again beaten 3l off a 2lb lower mark at Killarney last time; usually held up; effective 2m-2m4f; progressing, may do better over even further. Left modest maiden form behind to run a fine race when second on handicap debut at Clonmel in May; showed a similar standard of form when runner-up at Killarney; both those races have been over further, and this trip might not be ideal; holds a leading chance all the same.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (6/1 -9%)Go To Town |
6/1(-9%) | (4) Go To Town 6/1, Every chance, below form down the field in a handicap hurdle at Sligo most recent; in good form prior; cheekpieces first time; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on good; progressing in handicaps until latest. Cheekpieces on now after a below-par Sligo run last week; respectable form before that, fourth in races at Clonmel and Sligo.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (8/1 +56%)Atlantic Gamble |
8/1(+56%) | (9) Atlantic Gamble 8/1, Below form back in a handicap well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m3f with cut; still early days in handicaps. Six wins on the Flat; no sign of an equivalent standard in six starts over hurdles, the most recent at this venue in May.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (8/1 +0%)Theanniversary Man |
8/1(+0%) | (13) Theanniversary Man 8/1, Ran to form beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time; usually held up; effective over 2-2 1/2m, acts on heavy, good; progressing now he's had his head in front. Won back-to-back handicap hurdles at Thurles (2m) and Cork (2m4f) late last year; 2026 form is less persuasive, though the form of his Sligo fourth was boosted significantly by the winner Timurshah in winning twice at the Galway festival.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/1 +10%)Ripsnorter |
9/1(+10%) | (5) Ripsnorter 9/1, Green, mistakes, improved comfortably held in a maiden hurdle here last time; effective 2m, acts on any; progressive in bumpers, form franked, improving with experience over hurdles. Roscommon bumper winner a year ago for Andy Slattery; may find his level now after three maiden hurdle runs; needs to settle better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (12/1 +14%)Long Gone |
12/1(+14%) | (1) Long Gone 12/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Downpatrick latest; visor first time; usually held up; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on good; mark demands more. Won a bumper and two hurdles for Declan Queally; yet to hit form for this stable; pulled up at Downpatrick in June; visor on now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (12/1 +40%)Le Diablo |
12/1(+40%) | (8) Le Diablo 12/1, Outpaced, below form back down in trip, race may have come a bit soon down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recent; effective 2m-2m3f on sound surface; consistent until latest, unexposed at 2 1/2m. Won 2m1f Clonmel handicap in April (yielding); has been kept busy; second over 2m1f at Wexford, fair third behind Max Meridius over a slightly longer trip at this venue; needs to bounce back from a poor run at Cork last week.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (16/1 -60%)Houndsworth |
16/1(-60%) | (6) Houndsworth 16/1, Mistakes, never threatened comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time; effective 2m on yielding; in fair form until latest, bit more needed. Shock winner at Cork in April (2m, yielding); mid-field off revised mark at Limerick later that month, when testing ground may not have suited; unplaced favourite in a novice contest at Downpatrick; moderate run at this venue last month, jumped untidily at times.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (16/1 +68%)Brave Crogha |
16/1(+68%) | (12) Brave Crogha 16/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle here latest; visor first time; off a short-break; acts on G; yet to build on promising debut over hurdles. 200-1 bumper winner at the 2024 Galway festival; no sign of winning potential over hurdles at this stage; 50-1 when pulled up here in May.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (18/1 -50%)Secret Rock |
18/1(-50%) | (2) Secret Rock 18/1, Scored by 2l off a 7lb lower mark at Kilbeggan penultimate start; below form up in class tenth beaten 29l off 105 last time, same mark here; usually held up; effective 2m, suited by decent ground; remains well treated on maiden form. Maiden hurdle winner in 2023 and also recorded two Flat wins for Tony Martin; won a Kilbeggan handicap on stable debut in May, when returning from a 214-day break; failed to back that up at Killarney last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (22/1 -57%)Fremantle Doctor |
22/1(-57%) | (7) Fremantle Doctor 22/1, Needed run, may have found ground too soft down the field in a handicap hurdle at Leopardstown most recent; effective 2 1/2m; inconsistent. Flashes of form over hurdles and fences during a light campaign in 2025; first run since March; not one of the more obvious contenders.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (28/1 -250%)Figero |
28/1(-250%) | (3) Figero 28/1, Fair Flat debut comfortably held in a maiden here last time; effective 2m, acts on good to yielding; may have more to offer now handicapping. Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner; possible to excuse his handicap hurdle debut at Tramore; ran respectably in a Flat maiden here three weeks ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (80/1 -142%)Final Decision |
80/1(-142%) | (10) Final Decision 80/1, Yard won this last year; outpaced, needed run down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; off a short-break; effective at 2m; needs to prove ability remains following long lay off. Won a Kilbeggan bumper in 2023; has struggled over hurdles after two lengthy absences; tailed off at Wexford in May, same at this venue on her only 2025 start.. |

Daniel King, who rode all four of Mark Molloy's winners last season, takes the mount on KOUER A PRENDRE for the first time and the six-year-old might be able to go one better than on his first two outings in handicap company. The Estejo gelding has been raised a total of 5lb for those promising efforts and drops in trip from 2m4f. Chemdawg represents an in-form stable and has made her own contribution to that by winning at Kilbeggan and filling the runner-up spot over hurdles and on the Flat at Limerick. A dual winner last year, Theanniversary Man wouldn't need to improve much on recent efforts to play a leading role.

(1) (10/11 +0%)Real Bullet |
10/11(+0%) | (1) Real Bullet 10/11, Bit keen but hit the line well, promising debut a head winner in a novice here on debut; trainer in form; effective 6f on good to firm; main danger to Wateera. Mehmas colt who finished well for a last-gasp debut win over C\u0026D (good to firm) last month; pulled almost 4l clear with the runner-up in that race and he should improve for that experience; strongly respected under a penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (1/1 +9%)Wateera |
1/1(+9%) | (2) Wateera 1/1, Still green, confirmed debut level a short-head third in a novice at Newbury most recent run; effective 5/6f on good to firm; looks useful, more to come, strong chance here. Made all for a comfortable win on Wetherby debut (5.5f, good to firm) in June and she built on that when going very close under a penalty at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 19 days later; sets a good standard on that form and she could be hard to catch.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (16/1 -14%)Goldtrader |
16/1(-14%) | (4) Goldtrader 16/1, Never in it from off the pace well beaten in a novice at Salisbury only start; off a short-break; major improvement needed. Weak 11-1 shot and he ran green before finishing a remote last of nine at Salisbury (5f, good) in May; returns after a break and he needs a transformation upped in trip on his second start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (22/1 +12%)Major Looktwice |
22/1(+12%) | (5) Major Looktwice 22/1, 24 Mar; 45,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Mehmas; half-brother to Gavota, very smart at 7f; not easily fancied here. 100,000euros yearling, 45,000euros breeze-up 2yo; Mehmas half-brother to three winners, notably Gavota (Group-placed 6f/7f 2yo; RPR 105); dam unraced; has good target to aim at on debut and market should guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (50/1 -25%)Parkers Light |
50/1(-25%) | (6) Parkers Light 50/1, Too keen, well below debut level comfortably held in a maiden at Nottingham last time; effective 6f, acts on firm; bounce back needed. Finished down the field on Bath debut (5.7f, firm) last month and he was beaten 19l when last of five at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (50/1 +24%)Aksel |
50/1(+24%) | (3) Aksel 50/1, 25 May; Cotai Glory gelding; brother to Nordic Glory, useful at 6f; dam very useful at 5f as a 2yo; up against it on debut. Sixth foal; gelded brother to winners Nordic Glory (prolific 5f/6f including 2yo; RPR 77) and A Lott Of Kane (5f/6f AW; 58); dam 5f 2yo winner (76), sister to 6.5f Listed winner Princedargent and useful 1m-1m2f winner Erik The Red; this looks a tough starting point and he's best watched.. |

This would appear to be between the penalised runners Wateera and REAL BULLET. The former made a successful start at Wetherby before coming up just short at Newbury next time, which could be the case again as Billy Loughnane looks to gain further ground in the jockeys championship. His mount dug in to strike over C&D on debut and whilst the George Boughey team can do little wrong at present, he appears to have been found another good opportunity. Goldtrader completes the shortlist.

(6) (7/2 +59%)Cool Summer |
7/2(+59%) | (6) Cool Summer 7/2, Keen, hampered bend, hung, still green, returned to form when second beaten 7l in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon latest; effective 2m, acts on decent ground; has looked tricky, could build on latest. Placed in a maiden last summer; improved considerably from her first handicap at Listowel when second at Roscommon five weeks ago; beaten 7l but did well to recover from interference which caused her to become unbalanced before three out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (11/2 -38%)Grey Gardens |
11/2(-38%) | (1) Grey Gardens 11/2, Ran to form but taken on up front and did too much too soon when fourth beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Wexford latest; effective 2 1/4m, acts with cut; could progress now handicapping, further may suit. Promising effort at Down Royal in his first handicap; two slightly less encouraging runs since, both at Wexford; fair chance in this grade with 5lb claimed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (6/1 -9%)Max Meridius |
6/1(-9%) | (5) Max Meridius 6/1, Scored by 4l off a 7lb lower mark here penultimate start; far too free off revised mark 11th beaten 55l off 93 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 2m, acts on heavy and good; inconsistent. Won a handicap hurdle over a furlong further here last month, with Le Diablo back in third; last week's Cork run looked too bad to be true.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (6/1 +29%)Sidiriya |
6/1(+29%) | (14) Sidiriya 6/1, Ran to form under change of tactics beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts with cut; usually played late, frustrating maiden. Flat winner has run creditably in defeat recently; started slowly at Sligo and did well to stay on and take third; went one place better at Clonmel; doubt raised by unplaced run at Wexford last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/1 -17%)Let Him B |
7/1(-17%) | (3) Let Him B 7/1, Down the field in a handicap hurdle at Limerick most recent; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good, soft; unreliable but could remain ahead of mark now switched to fences. Progressive handicap hurdler in March/April; won over 2m5f at Down Royal (yielding) and better again off 11lb higher when clear second over 2m4f at Limerick; questions to answer after his last two starts, one of which was over fences.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (15/2 +25%)Euro Maker |
15/2(+25%) | (7) Euro Maker 15/2, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on yielding and good; good chance if building on latest. Promising second handicap attempt when chasing home a 6l winner in a 20-runner 2m Cork contest in April, having made much of the running; possible excuse for a poor Wexford run in May, hampered by a loose horse and may have lost confidence.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (15/2 +12%)The Toothpicker |
15/2(+12%) | (10) The Toothpicker 15/2, Comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan last time; returning from a break; effective 2m-2m4f on most ground; respected once again. A couple of encouraging efforts last season after returning from a long absence, notably when fifth of 24 at Cork (2m4f, soft to heavy); soundly beaten when filling the same place at Kilbeggan in April.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (9/1 +25%)Lunar Landscape |
9/1(+25%) | (13) Lunar Landscape 9/1, May not have stayed down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recent; still unexposed over hurdles, stamina to prove. Placed six times on the Flat; relatively unexposed over hurdles; needs to find extra judged on his handicap attempts at Wexford and Cork.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (14/1 -40%)The Vegas Raider |
14/1(-40%) | (4) The Vegas Raider 14/1, Unseated in a handicap hurdle at Limerick latest; effective 2m-2m5f, suited by decent ground; fair mark on old form but needs to prove ability remains. Three wins on the Flat; 1-18 over hurdles, with that sole success coming in this race two years ago; had a long layoff before returning at Limerick early last month, struggling when unseating rider three out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (20/1 -100%)Sayitfirst |
20/1(-100%) | (8) Sayitfirst 20/1, Pulled up in Order Of St George Mares Novice Chase (Grade 2) at Cork latest; effective 2m, suited by decent ground; progressive handicapper. Potentially well handicapped relative to her best chase form; good form in that sphere last October when backing up a Sligo win with seconds at Tramore and Down Royal; might need the run, her first since out of her depth in a Grade 2 mares' chase at Cork last December; 13lb lower than her chase mark. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (25/1 -108%)Spread The Faith |
25/1(-108%) | (12) Spread The Faith 25/1, When fourth beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap chase at Limerick latest; off a short-break; bit to find. Badly out of form over hurdles before a satisfactory chase debut at Limerick in May; others are more appealing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(17) (28/1 -12%)Calm Flight Ahead |
28/1(-12%) | (17) Calm Flight Ahead 28/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Limerick latest; blinkers first time; off a short-break; yet to show any sign of ability under rules. Weak form in maidens; cheekpieces failed to produce any improvement when pulled up last time on handicap debut; blinkers tried now; first reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(19) (33/1 -50%)Moulane West |
33/1(-50%) | (19) Moulane West 33/1, Never threatened down the field in a handicap hurdle at Sligo most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; generally consistent but holds no secrets from handicapper. Only one win from 36 starts over hurdles, no encouragement from recent form; third reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (33/1 -32%)Victoria Kesia |
33/1(-32%) | (9) Victoria Kesia 33/1, Never threatened well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wexford latest; effective 1m on Flat, 2m over hurdles, acts with cut and on good; inconsistent. Flat winner ran her best race over hurdles when a distant third of 14 on handicap hurdle debut at Downpatrick (2m2f, good); has produced two much less encouraging displays since then.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (33/1 -18%)Home By The Sea |
33/1(-18%) | (2) Home By The Sea 33/1, Slowly away down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; needs to improve again in handicaps. Out of his depth in a Flat maiden at Galway; struggled at Killarney in his first handicap hurdle, last of 15.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(18) (40/1 -21%)Ikalimix |
40/1(-21%) | (18) Ikalimix 40/1, Fell in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; effective 2m; inconsistent in short career. 50-1 shot when falling at the fifth at Cork in his first handicap; can be ruled out; second reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (80/1 -220%)Western Doyen |
80/1(-220%) | (16) Western Doyen 80/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse latest; absent for very lengthy period; looks pick on race times. Has run only once since second at Killarney in August 2022; yard has traditionally done well with veterans; nonetheless, likely to need this.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (100/1 +0%)All In Peder |
100/1(+0%) | (11) All In Peder 100/1, Below par down the field in a handicap at Tramore most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; C&D winner needs to prove ability remains after lay off. Back-to-back winner in staying handicaps at Gowran and Listowel for Emmet Mullins in May/June 2023; has run infrequently in recent years; has struggled in three runs for this yard.. |

COOL SUMMER was no match for an easy winner at Roscommon, but she finished best of the rest in second and the victor has since franked the form in good style at Wexford. She should be in contention off just 1lb higher. Max Meridius was well held in a much stronger grade at Cork, but he would be a real threat if bouncing back to the form that saw him win here on his penultimate start. Eoin Staples claims 5lb off the top-weight Grey Gardens, who would have gotten closer to a breakthrough success at Wexford but for a mistake at the last. Spread The Faith could be one to keep on side after showing more when fourth over fences at Limerick in May.

(2) (4/1 +53%)King Of Light |
4/1(+53%) | (2) King Of Light 4/1, Ran to form up to 6f when eighth beaten 3l off 97 last time, same mark here; effective 5/6f, acts on good, likes give but not fast ground; in career best form of late, probably high enough in weights. Has raced mostly at around 5f but there was no doubting that this C\u0026D suited him well when he won by a wide margin (good to firm) in June; ran with great credit when eighth of 27 in the Stewards' Cup at Goodwood recently, after having to be switched, and looks a likely contender back here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (5/1 +17%)Trefor |
5/1(+17%) | (3) Trefor 5/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Ascot last time; effective 5/6f, on a sound surface; bounce back needed. Had two C\u0026D wins under his belt before finishing close up in the last two runnings of this (both on good to firm); not ideally placed when returned to this track in May but he should have a say again now back on a better mark, 3lb lower than last August.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (6/1 -20%)Another Abbot |
6/1(-20%) | (5) Another Abbot 6/1, Ran to best, scored with bit in hand landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark here last time; trainer in form; suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; inconsistent but clearly capable. Has plenty of handicapping experience but better than ever when winning quite convincingly over C\u0026D (good to firm) recently; on a career-high mark against stronger opposition but it's not too late for him to do better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (15/2 -7%)Diligently |
15/2(-7%) | (11) Diligently 15/2, Never in it after a slow start tenth last time, same mark here; usually held up; suited by 6f, acts on sound surface; bounce back needed. Has had some ups and downs in handicaps but is 2-3 in them over C\u0026D (latest win when getting the better of Indian Run in June) and was seriously impeded in the other; has claims with Billy Loughnane up for the first time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (9/1 -50%)Badri |
9/1(-50%) | (1) Badri 9/1, Improved again, hit the line well landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Pontefract last time; top course jockey; suited by 5/6f, acts on any; competitive mark still and in very good form. C\u0026D winner who has had a fantastic run this year, winning his last four races on good to firm ground, over 6f and 5f; at the age of nine he seems to be closing in on his best-ever form and he has won off a slightly higher mark than today's in the past; Oisin Murphy up for the first time; much respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/1 -50%)Sudden Flight |
9/1(-50%) | (7) Sudden Flight 9/1, Ran to form beaten 3/4l off a 1lb lower mark here last time; effective 5/6f, both wins on AW but handles fast turf; competitively weighted still. Both wins on AW; 0-9 on grass but cheekpieces seem to have bucked him up of late and he was very close to breaking his turf duck at Salisbury before making late inroads into Another Abbot's lead over this C\u0026D last time; weighted to be thereabouts with that one and can't be ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (10/1 +9%)Rosario |
10/1(+9%) | (8) Rosario 10/1, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Newmarket (July) last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good to firm; capable of a good run here. Both wins over 5f; stays further, having finished better than anything when third of 21 in the Portland at Doncaster (extended 5f, good) last September but this is only his second run in a 6f turf handicap (faded in the first of them) so still has stamina to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (11/1 -10%)Indian Run |
11/1(-10%) | (4) Indian Run 11/1, Ran to form down to 5f when third beaten 1 1/2l off 90 last time, same mark here; effective 5/6f on sound surface; has found his form again, good chance. Lost his way as a 3yo but he had smart 6f handicap form last May and a close second to Diligently over C\u0026D (good to firm) in June signalled a return to better days; a Thirsk win at 6f and a close third over 5f at Ascot have followed and he can be in the thick of it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (12/1 +64%)Purest Time |
12/1(+64%) | (14) Purest Time 12/1, Below form when ninth beaten 6l off 85 last time, 1lb lower here; suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; more needed off this mark. Smart on his day, as when runner-up to a top 6f handicapper at York (good) last October, and he saw off Desert Cop, Badri and Diligently in some style over C\u0026D in May, despite being switched twice; not so good in two runs since but he's too talented to overlook back on this track.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (14/1 +36%)Cindy Lou Who |
14/1(+36%) | (9) Cindy Lou Who 14/1, Ran to form beaten 6l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; top course trainer; effective 5/6f, acts on any; mark easing but needs more. Four wins on extremes of going in 2025, including over C\u0026D, but she surpassed them all in form terms when just losing out in a Listed race at Bath in April; had a rough ride from the handicapper as a result and she's found it all too much since; up against it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (16/1 +43%)Baldomero |
16/1(+43%) | (16) Baldomero 16/1, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at York last time; suited by 5/6f, acts with cut and on AW; mark easing, capable of a good run. Saw out 2025 with three AW wins from his final four starts but he's played only minor roles in turf handicaps this year, including when beaten nearly 5l behind King Of Light over C\u0026D in May; could do with some rain or, failing that, a return to the AW as he's well treated now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (20/1 +39%)Star Chorus |
20/1(+39%) | (15) Star Chorus 20/1, Best work late, should have finished closer beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; usually held up; effective 5/6f, suited by a sound surface; chance here. One turf win from 15 attempts, in a four-runner race at Chepstow (5f) last July; two fair C\u0026D runs since returned to turf in May and was out on a limb when finishing sixth to Another Abbot and Sudden Flight 14 days ago; however, he'll do well to win at this level off his current mark.. |

25/1(-108%) | (10) Uncle Don 25/1, Below form beaten 6l in a handicap here last time; off a short-break; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; capable of a good run. Sole win in a Beverley maiden over two years ago but he only just failed to gain a first handicap win when touched off by Justcallmepete over C\u0026D (good to firm) in May; some way below that level in Diligently's race here the following month, though, and others are higher up the list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (25/1 -56%)Dream Composer |
25/1(-56%) | (13) Dream Composer 25/1, Below form up to 6f fifth beaten 6 1/4l off 87 last time, 3lb lower here; top course trainer; suited by 5f, acts on any; could do with dropping to 5f. Multiple wins include two over 5f for new yard this year, the first under Myla Coppins and the second on this track; did win once over 6f back in 2022 but it's a long time since he played a part over this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (25/1 -56%)Justcallmepete |
25/1(-56%) | (12) Justcallmepete 25/1, Below form down to 5f fourth beaten 8l off 85 last time, 1lb lower here; top course trainer; effective 6/7f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; capable off this mark. Just 3-26 on turf but this C\u0026D does work well for him and he gained a deserved first win on the track when just fending off Uncle Don (good to firm) in May; has had going (good to soft) and trip (5f) excuses since but this company could be overwhelming.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (33/1 +0%)Desert Cop |
33/1(+0%) | (6) Desert Cop 33/1, Below form 20th last time, 1lb lower here; effective 5/6f, suited by a sound surface; inconsistent, looks high enough in weights. Took advantage of a more favourable mark when winning over this C\u0026D (good to firm) in June, a first win in Britain for over two years; perhaps downhill tracks weren't so helpful in two runs since, at 6f and 5f, but he still has something to find in this company.. |

Badri is in a rich vein of form after completing a hat-trick at Pontefract on his most recent outing and his chance is there for all to see, but the one who appeals most is ANOTHER ABBOT. William Haggas' charge showed improved form when beating Sudden Flight by just under a length over track and trip two weeks ago and can confirm that form to go in again.

(7) (2/1 +27%)Run For The Border |
2/1(+27%) | (7) Run For The Border 2/1, Yard won this last year; travelled, made too much use of when fourth beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Sligo latest; effective 2m3f-2m6f, acts on most ground; consistent, not ruled out. Won a Limerick maiden hurdle in October (2m3f, gd-yld); best run since a 2.25l second of 15 here over 2m6f (good) on penultimate off 3lb lower; not as good at Sligo four days ago and has stamina to prove for this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (4/1 +20%)Ladiam |
4/1(+20%) | (8) Ladiam 4/1, Ran to form 6l third in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent run; effective 2 1/2m, needs sound surface; in decent form. Not the easiest to win with, as her 2-30 record over hurdles illustrates; both wins at Sligo over 20.5f, but did run a cracker in this last year when beaten 4.25l into second and she's 5lb lower now; yard in form and she shaped well at Wexford on latest; big chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (4/1 +20%)Killowen House |
4/1(+20%) | (2) Killowen House 4/1, Outpaced, improved up in trip when fourth beaten 5 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Galway latest; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on good; point winner, longer trip should suit. Point-to-point winner; getting the hang of things over hurdles; fine effort in a Galway maiden on latest (2m6f, good); mark may be workable and interesting up in trip on handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/2 +72%)Strange Currency |
9/2(+72%) | (5) Strange Currency 9/2, Returned to form on chase debut, no given a hard time comfortably held in a beginners chase chase at Kilbeggan last time; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2m, acts with cut and on good; more to come over fences, may get further. Showed promise in a couple of runs for Gearoid O'Loughlin but arguably best form has come on rain- softened ground; unproven over this far and probably best watched on first run for new trainer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (6/1 -71%)Down Around |
6/1(-71%) | (6) Down Around 6/1, Needed run, ran well to a point well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; effective 2m-2m6f; back in form, remain competitive. 1-21 over hurdles, the win coming at Thurles (2m4f, good) in November 2024 for Philip Rothwell; midfield at Kilbeggan on first run for this yard after a 232-day break so should be sharper now; now rated 2lb below his win and has run well here before; this trip is an unknown, however.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (15/2 -25%)Dorans Law |
15/2(-25%) | (3) Dorans Law 15/2, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; ran to form when second beaten 11l in a handicap chase at Wexford latest; suited by 3m, acts on good and yielding; fair mark if building on latest revival. Won this race in 2024 off this rating and fourth off 5lb higher last year; hinted that he may be returning to form in a handicap chase at Wexford on latest; could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (50/1 -178%)My Trump Card |
50/1(-178%) | (1) My Trump Card 50/1, Poorly placed in race dominated from front, needed run down the field in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent; effective 2 1/2m, acts with cut; must bounce back. Bumper and maiden hurdle winner on heavy for former yard; inauspicious start for this stable when 100-1 and tailed off at Galway (16.5f, good); needs softer ground.. |

KILLOWEN HOUSE's fourth-placed finish in a maiden hurdle at the Galway Festival looks a strong form piece of form in the context of this race. The former point-to-point winner steps up in trip for his handicap debut, which could see him in a better light. Dorans Law enjoys his trips to Ballinrobe and he put in some good late work for second place at Wexford latest, despite finishing well in arrears of the winner. He will have no problem with this staying trip. Ladiam can make an impact off a handy weight having hit the frame at Wexford recently, while Lord Ffrench is also noted in a first-time tongue-tie.

(4) (4/6 +8%)Princess Honey Bee |
4/6(+8%) | (4) Princess Honey Bee 4/6, Ran to form up to 1m when second beaten 2l in a novice at Ripon latest; effective 7f/1m, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; chance in a weak race. Promising debut third at Yarmouth (7f) for previous trainer and can't be entirely blamed for later defeats that year; two fair efforts for new yard, finding only a well-supported newcomer too good at Ripon (1m, good to firm) recently; looks competitive under Billy Loughnane, who's 1-4 for the yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (11/4 +17%)Somethingintheair |
11/4(+17%) | (7) Somethingintheair 11/4, Lacked pace 5 1/2l third in a handicap at Ffos Las most recent run; effective 1m, be suited by further, acts on good and AW; more to come. Improved as a 2yo, running an eye-catching race when making late headway into fifth on Lingfield AW on final start (first three have done well in handicaps since); never able to threaten at Ffos Las (1m, good) only last week on her belated return but she should progress.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (5/1 +0%)Sterling Fortune |
5/1(+0%) | (2) Sterling Fortune 5/1, Below form 8l third in a maiden at Yarmouth most recent run; effective 7f, acts on good to soft and AW; likely vulnerable here. All four runs over 7f with some signs of ability, albeit not looking to be crying out for the extra furlong despite several siblings having won at about this trip; still can't be written off in an ordinary race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/1 -54%)Moonswept |
10/1(-54%) | (5) Moonswept 10/1, Sea The Moon filly; dam unraced half-sister to a winner in Australia up to 12f; trainer in form but has a chance in a weak race on debut. First foal; by Sea The Moon out of unraced half-sister to winners Furrion (useful Australian 6.5f-11.7f), Open The Red (1m2f; 83) and Elterwater (1m-1m2f; 81); interesting newcomer for in-form yard that has a healthy 14% strike-rate in maidens (11-78); market can guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 +58%)Thunder Goddess |
14/1(+58%) | (8) Thunder Goddess 14/1, Below debut level when fourth beaten 15l in a novice at Wolverhampton latest; returning from a break; probably wants 10f+; should progress. Never in the picture in two AW races at 1m (22-1) and about 1m1f (50-1); seems unlikely to suddenly sprout wings in a maiden.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (33/1 +18%)Mystic Music |
33/1(+18%) | (6) Mystic Music 33/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; returning from a break; middle-distance bred; all to prove for now. 33-1 for two AW starts over 1m and 1m4f, finishing 20l and 30l behind the winner; heading for modest handicaps off a lowly mark after today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (40/1 +0%)Dayna |
40/1(+0%) | (3) Dayna 40/1, Same level as on debut beaten 8l in a maiden at Lingfield last time; sire sprinter, dam a 7f winner; plenty to find. Big prices when she finished last of five this summer over 1m at Ripon and 7f at Lingfield; likely to show more when qualified for run-of-the-mill handicaps.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (50/1 -52%)Gift Box |
50/1(-52%) | (1) Gift Box 50/1, 10,000gns Sergei Prokofiev filly; dam very useful over 7f including at 2yo including as a 2yo; up against it. 10,000gns foal; first foal; by Sergei Prokofiev out of winner at 7f-8.6f (RPR 78), half-sister to multiple winner Fiscal Policy (5f/6f) and Dittander (5f 2yo); likely best watched on debut as yard has a better record in handicaps than at this level.. |

Princess Honey Bee has found one too good on both of her starts for the Craig Lidster stable and sets the standard with an official rating of 69. However, a chance can be taken on newcomer MOONSWEPT, who is related to a few winners and could make an instant impression. Sterling Fortune is bang there on figures and is another to watch out for.

(4) (15/8 +44%)Gainsville |
15/8(+44%) | (4) Gainsville 15/8, Beaten 7l in a maiden hurdle at Downpatrick last time; off a short-break; consistent in points, longer trip should suit. 0-6 in point-to-points but did go close in a couple of them; not beaten all that far in Downpatrick maiden hurdle on latest (2m6f, good) and that's amongst the best form on offer in this race; player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (3/1 +0%)Keep Em Quite |
3/1(+0%) | (6) Keep Em Quite 3/1, Ran to form appreciating step up in trip beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; off a short-break; effective at 2 1/2-3m, acts with cut; unexposed over staying trips. Far from disgraced on handicap debut at Wexford when last seen in May, beaten 8l off a mark of 102; a repeat of that back would give him every chance in this race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (6/1 +57%)Walkingmayotomilan |
6/1(+57%) | (14) Walkingmayotomilan 6/1, Needed run down the field in a maiden hurdle at Galway most recent; tongue-tie first time; ; showed minor promise in points but likely one for handicaps. Placed in a couple of points; struggled on rules debut at Naas in January (18.5f, heavy), but much better effort when mid-field at Galway (RPR 90) after a six-month break; could run into the money here if the new tongue-tie ekes out more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (6/1 +0%)Western Shores |
6/1(+0%) | (15) Western Shores 6/1, Appeared not to stay comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Bellewstown last time; tongue-tie first time; effective 2-2 1/4m, acts on good; should improve up in trip. Rated 98 after three runs over timber; her first two efforts at Tramore (2m, good) and Downpatrick (2m3f, good) saw her run to RPRs in the mid-90s; weakened over 20.5f at Bellewstown on latest, but bred to stay and Jack Kennedy takes over with a tongue-tie also added; chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (13/2 +0%)Room For One More |
13/2(+0%) | (12) Room For One More 13/2, Weak in the market down the field in a maiden hurdle at Downpatrick most recent; trainer in form; more needed. Beaten a cumulative distance of 89l in a Leopardstown bumper and when 22-1 in a Downpatrick mares' maiden hurdle; with a top yard but her claims are not obvious; any market support could be significant.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (11/1 +39%)Rumi Rock |
11/1(+39%) | (8) Rumi Rock 11/1, Race may have come a bit soon down the field in a maiden hurdle at Galway most recent; ; showed little in points, a bumper or over hurdles. Failed to win a point and mid-field in both maiden hurdles, here and on latest at Galway when beaten 34l; given an RPR of 90 for that run, so place chance if he can build on it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (14/1 -17%)Barton Sky |
14/1(-17%) | (1) Barton Sky 14/1, Probably needed race comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan last time; bit to find. Point winner made no impression on debut for this yard after a long absence in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last month; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (16/1 -33%)Scotty Joe |
16/1(-33%) | (9) Scotty Joe 16/1, Unsuited by drop in trip down the field in a maiden hurdle at Punchestown most recent; off a short-break; form of point win looks modest, likely to need further. Point winner; stayed on well enough when sixth of 16 in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle (18.5f, good) in May; never sighted dropped back to 2m at Punchestown on latest; could do better now stepped up in distance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (20/1 +29%)Derby Rock |
20/1(+29%) | (3) Derby Rock 20/1, May not have stayed down the field in a handicap chase at Wexford most recent; yet to fully convince with stamina for 3m; major improvement needed. 0-7 over hurdles and rated just 82; beaten 49l off that mark in a handicap chase at Wexford on latest; difficult to make a case.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (40/1 -433%)Three County Star |
40/1(-433%) | (10) Three County Star 40/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Killarney latest; effective 2 3/4m; all to prove. 0-11 over hurdles and rated just 76; pulled up in a handicap chase at Killarney last month; others make more appeal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (66/1 -267%)Hey Sir |
66/1(-267%) | (5) Hey Sir 66/1, Comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Sligo last time; hard to recommend. Very modest form in point-to-points and under rules; beaten 19l off 82 in Wexford handicap chase on penultimate; was 22l behind when sixth in a Sligo maiden hurdle latest; cheekpieces worn that day left off now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (100/1 -257%)Go To The Moon |
100/1(-257%) | (16) Go To The Moon 100/1, Well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon latest; more needed. First reserve; bought for 40,000GBP after winning a point in 2025; however, has struggled badly in a Sligo bumper and a Roscommon maiden hurdle, beaten 78l in the latter race; questions to answer now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (100/1 -100%)Secret Moon |
100/1(-100%) | (13) Secret Moon 100/1, Below par well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Downpatrick latest; showed little in points or on hurdle debut. Difficult to make a case for based on the evidence of heavy maiden hurdle defeats at Downpatrick and Limerick.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (150/1 -200%)Boomerang Breeze |
150/1(-200%) | (2) Boomerang Breeze 150/1, Down the field in an auction hurdle at Cork most recent; major improvement needed. Very modest efforts in maiden hurdles at Limerick and Cork; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (175/1 -250%)Kilmond Knight |
175/1(-250%) | (7) Kilmond Knight 175/1, Never put into the race on final qualifying run well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon latest; ; pointer may be one for handicaps over further. 0-3 over hurdles and has had jumping issues; got around at Roscommon last time but was beaten 34l; needs more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (200/1 -203%)Likeyouhaveplenty |
200/1(-203%) | (11) Likeyouhaveplenty 200/1, Down the field in a Ladies bumper at Roscommon most recent; plenty more needed. Huge odds and no show in bumper and two maiden hurdles; may need more time.. |

The 102-rated KEEP EM QUITE could record a breakthrough success now tried over a new trip. He has finished fifth on three of his four starts over timber, including in handicap company at Wexford last time, and he wouldn't need to find considerable progress back in a maiden. Room For One More is related to a number of winners and although she hasn't pulled up any trees so far, the mare could have more to offer on just her third start for Willie Mullins. Gainsville, who was placed in no less than four point-to-points, ran well for a long way before fading into sixth at Downpatrick, while this assignment could suit fellow point-to-point graduate Scotty Joe.

(2) (8/11 +61%)My Old Mate |
8/11(+61%) | (2) My Old Mate 8/11, Bit keen, run of race, back to best to get off the mark landing a handicap by 2l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; effective 1m, acts on good to soft and fast ground; capable of further progress. Came good at seventh attempt, readily making all over C\u0026D six weeks ago; that form has been well advertised by the clear runner-up since and this fellow could still be well handicapped after a 5lb rise.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (10/3 +0%)Creciente |
10/3(+0%) | (8) Creciente 10/3, Ran to form beaten a nose off this mark at Lingfield last time; top course jockey; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; step up to 1m might suit. Clearcut winner of Lingfield classified (7f, good to firm) under Oisin Murphy last month, her tenth start, and went very close off today's mark in recent handicap over that C\u0026D; reunited with the champion jockey for this first attempt at 1m; must be considered.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (7/2 0%)Karisma's Angel |
7/2(0%) | (7) Karisma's Angel 7/2, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Epsom last time; probably effective 7f, acts on good to firm and AW; latest run probably reflects ability. Still a maiden after six starts, but posted good effort when third at Epsom (7f, good to firm) last month and looks well worth another crack at 1m; shortlisted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/1 +17%)Fizzy Bear |
10/1(+17%) | (1) Fizzy Bear 10/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Kempton most recent; off a short-break; seems effective at 8f; bounce back needed. Unexposed after only four starts, but absent since 21l defeat on handicap debut at Kempton (1m, AW) in May; leap of faith required to support him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/1 -22%)Ingemar |
11/1(-22%) | (3) Ingemar 11/1, Bit keen despite first-time hood 5 1/4l third in a handicap at Sandown most recent run; trainer in form; bred to be suited by around 8-10f, acts on good; more to come if settling. Drops in grade after respectable third of six on recent handicap debut at Sandown (1m, good to firm; first-time hood), but displays an ungainly head carriage and needs to learn to settle better; others look safer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (12/1 -41%)Torbados |
12/1(-41%) | (4) Torbados 12/1, Lacked pace beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good to soft and AW; mark continues to ease, but needs more. Ran quite well from the front when upped to 1m at Kempton (AW) last month, but managed only sixth when favourite at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) three weeks ago; now 0-10 and needs to find something extra on this turf return.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (22/1 -57%)Landslide |
22/1(-57%) | (6) Landslide 22/1, Lacked pace down in trip beaten 6l in a handicap at Leicester last time; hood first time; possible improver for 1m now. Seemed to find things happening too quickly when dropped back to 6f for recent handicap debut, finishing only sixth of eight, but remains unexposed and his pedigree suggests this new trip will suit; cheekpieces removed but hood remains.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (25/1 -108%)Neat And Tidy |
25/1(-108%) | (9) Neat And Tidy 25/1, Not best of runs, below form comfortably held in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 7f; form has gone wrong way and all to prove. Unplaced all five starts, most recently when well-held fifth on stable debut at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) three weeks ago; moves up in trip here; may yet come good for Richard Hughes but others have more obvious claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (40/1 +0%)Bennyworth |
40/1(+0%) | (10) Bennyworth 40/1, Never in it from off the pace when fourth beaten 11l in a handicap at Sandown latest; usually held up; suited by 8f, all form on AW; plenty to prove for now. Ten-race maiden who was behind Ingemar when well-held fourth of six at Sandown (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago; difficult to enthuse over.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (66/1 +34%)Mr Jeffrey |
66/1(+34%) | (11) Mr Jeffrey 66/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 9 1/4l in a classified race at Lingfield last time; hasn't shown anything in short career. Five-race maiden who was safely held in Lingfield classified events on last two outings (7.6f/7f), latterly in race won by Creciente; needs significant improvement on handicap debut.. |

Despite taking a keen hold, MY OLD MATE still managed to make every yard of the running to make his fourth start in handicap company a winning one over track and trip in June. With Billy Loughnane booked, he could prove a tough nut to crack. Ingemar was well held in third on his handicap bow at Sandown last time, but he isn't one to write off just yet. Of the remainder, Epsom third Karisma's Angel makes the most appeal.

(4) (12/1 +0%)The Little Yank |
12/1(+0%) | (4) The Little Yank 12/1, 5 1/4l third in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan most recent run; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on any ground; mark easing but needs more. Course winner took a step back in the right direction at Kilbeggan on latest after four non-completions in a row; third of four, only beaten 5l, in Kilbeggan chase on Saturday.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (4/1 +33%)Moonshine Girl |
4/1(+33%) | (11) Moonshine Girl 4/1, Travelled, hit the front too soon and out-battled late, returned to form beaten a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Roscommon last time; probably wants 3m; frustrating maiden, in form. Maiden has been knocking on the door in recent starts; beaten 1l at Limerick (2m6f, soft) and a neck on latest at Roscommon (3m, good); nudged up 3lb, but this could be her day.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (9/2 +25%)Pilgrims Walk |
9/2(+25%) | (5) Pilgrims Walk 9/2, Improved up in trip beaten 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Kilbeggan last time; cheekpieces first time; off a short-break; probably effective 3m on soft, good; more to come over staying trips in handicaps. Ran a fine race on handicap debut at Kilbeggan (24.5f, good), staying on well and finding just one too good; raised 4lb for that and cheekpieces go on; whether this sharper trip will suit is debateable, but can't be discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +8%)Tannery Park |
6/1(+8%) | (3) Tannery Park 6/1, Travelled, cosily, improved up in trip landing a handicap by 4l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; off a long absence; effective 2m6f, acts on good; more to come over staying trips. Bolted up over C\u0026D (good) off 6lb lower when last sighted in May 2025; non-runner twice last month on account of good ground, so might need a drop of rain.. |

Showed ability in maidens and again when a 1.25l second over 20.5f (good) in a Killarney handicap hurdle on latest; should go well again off 3lb higher, but must prove stamina for this longer trip.. |

(8) (10/1 +0%)Ranger Billy |
10/1(+0%) | (8) Ranger Billy 10/1, Returned to form 4 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle here most recent run; effective up to 3m on a sound surface; unreliable. Hasn't won since October 2024; bounced back from non-completions on first two runs for this yard with an encouraging third over C\u0026D (good) last month; should be in the mix with a repeat of that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (10/1 +0%)Queen Kulina |
10/1(+0%) | (15) Queen Kulina 10/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 19l in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon latest; effective at around 2 1/2-3m; maiden running into form. Maiden is in decent form; beaten just 5l when third at Kilbeggan on penultimate; weakened late into fourth at Roscommon (3m, good) on latest; worth another go at this trip on that evidence; place chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (11/1 -10%)Political Stance |
11/1(-10%) | (6) Political Stance 11/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal latest; returning from a break; effective 2-3m, acts on heavy and good; likely has more to offer in handicaps when money is down. Beaten 20l on handicap debut at Clonmel in February (16.5f, heavy) and was never travelling when pulled up over 20.5f at Down Royal when last seen in March; eased 2lb but best watched unless the market speaks.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (11/1 +8%)It's Time Again |
11/1(+8%) | (7) It's Time Again 11/1, Taken on up front well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m-2m6f on a sound surface; good mark on penultimate run. Three-time course winner (including over C\u0026D); in the lead when overjumping and falling two out on her penultimate start at Clonmel; below-par here on latest but is on last winning mark and loves this place; not discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(19) (11/1 +31%)Joshua Chamberlain |
11/1(+31%) | (19) Joshua Chamberlain 11/1, Yard won this last year; too much to do, returned to form back up in trip when fourth beaten 13l in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2m1f-2m6f, acts with cut and on good; could build on latest revival. Third reserve; struggled on return from huge layoff at Punchestown in May, but proved some ability remained with a nice fourth over C\u0026D last month; 2lb below sole win and could be a player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (11/1 -29%)La Tene |
11/1(-29%) | (16) La Tene 11/1, Well placed to challenge, ran to form 9l third in a handicap hurdle here most recent run; effective at 2m2f-3m, acts on soft, good; fair mark on maiden form. Promise on soft when a 7l third at Clonmel (2m3f) back in March; similar effort over this C\u0026D (good) 20 days ago; place chance but needs to find a bit more to win.. |

(10) (12/1 +25%)Chanceitlucky |
12/1(+25%) | (10) Chanceitlucky 12/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Navan last time; returning from long layoff; effective at 2m4f, acts on good to yielding; return to this longer trip in his favour. Best maiden run came over 2m4f at Punchestown on nice ground; no impact over 2m on handicap bow on heavy at Navan when last seen in November; worth a market check moving up in trip on better ground.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (16/1 -14%)Mini Getaway |
16/1(-14%) | (13) Mini Getaway 16/1, Hampered by faller, never threatened, not disgraced on chase debut 28l third in a handicap chase at Downpatrick most recent run; off a short-break; effective 3m; more to come over fences from point winner. Point winner is 0-9 over hurdles and her latest third in a handicap chase at Downpatrick in May was a very remote one; others make more appeal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (16/1 +0%)Poetic Focus |
16/1(+0%) | (9) Poetic Focus 16/1, Jumped poorly down the field in a handicap hurdle at Sligo most recent; effective 2m4f-2m6f; inconsistent. 0-12 and hasn't looked like shedding the maiden tag in recent starts; tailed off at Sligo latest; others more convincing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (20/1 -25%)Nothing Hectic |
20/1(-25%) | (1) Nothing Hectic 20/1, Too much to do well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Downpatrick latest; off a short-break; effective 2-2 3/4m, likely to get 3m, acts on good, yielding; can do better if ridden bit more positively over hurdles. C\u0026D (good) maiden hurdle winner last August; form has nosedived since and beaten around 20l in handicaps in both starts this year; return to this venue needs to spark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(18) (20/1 -25%)Everystep Oftheway |
20/1(-25%) | (18) Everystep Oftheway 20/1, Bit below form when fourth beaten 17l in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon latest; absent for very lengthy period; effective at around 3m, suited by decent ground; maiden in fair form when last seen but likely to need this. Second reserve; in okay form when last seen in July 2024; on a workable mark on best form, but entitled to need this after such a long layoff.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(17) (20/1 +39%)Lost Features |
20/1(+39%) | (17) Lost Features 20/1, Too much to do ridden to see out the trip beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap hurdle here last time; effective 2m6f; modest form so far, staying trips may suit. First reserve; best run yet in handicaps over C\u0026D (good) on latest, staying on from the back for a 7.25l fifth of 15; could run on late into the places.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (40/1 +20%)Urbs Intacta Manet |
40/1(+20%) | (12) Urbs Intacta Manet 40/1, May not have stayed down the field in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown most recent; off a short-break; ; all to prove. Showed little in maidens and similar story in first two handicaps; hard to fancy on form.. |

MOONSHINE GIRL wouldn't be winning out of turn after going close at both Limerick and Roscommon. She stays further than this, which will stand her in good stead if this becomes a real test of stamina. She has been inching up the weights courtesy of those placed efforts but Jack Gilligan's 5lb claim offsets the rise on this occasion. Pilgrims Walk showed that he should have a future in this discipline when staying on well into second on his handicap debut at Kilbeggan, and is now tried in first-time cheekpieces. Cornaroya Rocco hit the woodwork at Killarney and he enters calculations as a result, while the returning Tannery Park is another to consider.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
