1st (1) (6/4 +25%)Not My Type |
6/4(+25%) | (1) Not My Type 6/4, Promising debut when a neck winner in a maiden at Sandown on debut; effective 5f on fast surface; strong chance under a penalty with improvement likely. No Nay Never filly who made a winning start to her career over 5f at Sandown (good to firm) three weeks ago; the third from that race has won since; 7lb penalty but almost certainly has more to offer for top stable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (17/2 -89%)Empress Princess |
17/2(-89%) | (3) Empress Princess 17/2, 7 Feb; 100,000 euros No Nay Never filly; dam moderate at 12f; trainer in form and quite capable at readying one, worth a market check. 100,000euros daughter of No Nay Never; stable has had a first-time-out 2yo winner here in the Jaber Abdullah silks this season; would need considering if the betting speaks in her favour.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (28/1 -180%)Flower Youmzain |
28/1(-180%) | (4) Flower Youmzain 28/1, Yard has won 6 of last 10 runnings of race; improved from debut down to 5f when fourth beaten 5 1/2l in a maiden at Hamilton latest; speed sire's side, stamina on dam's; back up in trip, type to do better when handicapping. Showed ability in maidens at Pontefract (6f, good) and Hamilton (5f, good to firm) in June without achieving a great deal; capable of better at some point.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (5/6 +44%)What A Girl Wants |
5/6(+44%) | (6) What A Girl Wants 5/6, Too keen but game and close to form without certainly staying 6f when fourth beaten 3 1/2l in Empress Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at Newmarket (July) latest; effective 5/6f, acts on any; good chance here albeit vulnerable to an improver. Promise in three 5f runs in Ireland in the spring; well beaten in the Albany at Royal Ascot on yard debut but bounced back when fourth of eight in 6f Newmarket Listed race (good to firm) seven weeks ago, no extra late on and shaping as if this return to a stiff 5f may be ideal; sets a good standard for the rest to aim at.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (80/1 -264%)Classyfied |
80/1(-264%) | (2) Classyfied 80/1, 9 Feb; Advertise filly; half-sister to Sunday River, poor at 6f; dam useful at 6f; top course trainer but looks up against it here on debut. Advertise filly and the second foal of a fair 6f AW winner; the mount of David Allan from the yard's two debutantes but the market is likely the best guide to expectations. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (50/1 -127%)Queen Of Tears |
50/1(-127%) | (5) Queen Of Tears 50/1, 17 Apr; Starspangledbanner filly; half-sister to The Untamed, very useful at 6f; dam very smart at 6f as a 2yo; top course trainer but likely to need this. Starspangledbanner half-sister to 6f winner The Untamed (RPR 80); dam 6f 2yo winner (95); David Allan is on the yard's other newcomer but she's bred to have a future and is worth a second look in the betting.. |

WHAT A GIRL WANTS has been highly tried so far in her career and it would be disappointing if the daughter of Persian Force couldn't get off the mark at the sixth attempt. Fourth in a Listed contest at Newmarket last time, she gets the vote at the expense of Sandown winner Not My Type, who has to give 7lb to the opposition. 100,000-euro purchase Empress Princess appeals most of the newcomers.

1st (1) (8/15 +82%)Concert Pitch |
8/15(+82%) | (1) Concert Pitch 8/15, Ran to form beaten a neck off this mark at Carlisle last time; probably effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good; chance once again if turning out quickly. Bumped into useful types when runner-up in maidens Hamilton (5f, good to soft) and over C\u0026D (good to firm) in June/July and made a good start to his nursery career when beaten only a neck in a 0-75 at Carlisle (5f, good) on Tuesday; pulled just over 3l clear of the third at Carlisle and is the one to beat if turned out again quickly.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (15/2 +17%)Lairy Mary |
15/2(+17%) | (5) Lairy Mary 15/2, Yard won this last year; didn't get home up to 6f beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; top course trainer; effective 5f on good to soft and good to firm; mark easing and drop to 5f a plus. Her mark appears about right based on her two nursery efforts last month but she now returns to the scene of her fast-ground claiming success in May; also has a handy draw so there are reasons to be hopeful.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (12/1 -118%)Mrs Mole |
12/1(-118%) | (3) Mrs Mole 12/1, Back to debut level down to 6f when 3 1/4l third in a maiden at Lingfield most recent run; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on sound surface; could improve for drop to 5f now. Has reached the frame on two of her three starts; looked suited by the drop to 6f (led for long way) when third in Lingfield maiden and it could be that the minimum trip sees her in an even better light on nursery debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (20/1 -233%)Targa |
20/1(-233%) | (8) Targa 20/1, Ran to form down to 5f beaten 2 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Lingfield last time; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; chance once again from a reduced mark. Had two runs in nurseries last month, beaten just over 2l when third of seven over 5f at Lingfield (good to firm) latterly; being eased another 2lb can only help but it's not enough to tempt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (16/1 -300%)Enemy Action |
16/1(-300%) | (2) Enemy Action 16/1, Best work late, back to debut level returned to 6f beaten 2l off this mark at Thirsk last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; drop to 5f not sure to suit but could still have a say. Made a sound start to his nursery career when fourth to stablemate Lady Dublin over 6f at Thirsk (good to firm) three weeks ago, albeit not obviously shaping as if crying out for a drop back to 5f; wears first-time cheekpieces; has shown a tendency to start slowly.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (33/1 -83%)Good Fighter |
33/1(-83%) | (9) Good Fighter 33/1, Again ran to a moderate level down the field in a novice at Southwell most recent; blinkers first time; wide draw; type to do better now handicapping. Hasn't built on his 5f debut in two subsequent 6f outings but more realistic chance now handicapping at a low level; has shown speed so the return to 5f could help, as may first-time blinkers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (12/1 -20%)Johns Power |
12/1(-20%) | (7) Johns Power 12/1, Best work late, improved when fourth beaten 6l in a novice at Catterick latest; effective 5f on good to firm; chance if building on latest now handicapping. Stepped up on his first two efforts when keeping on for fourth (Kaiulani Spirit behind in fifth) over 5f at Catterick (good to firm) four weeks ago; the third gave that form a bit of a boost when winning a maiden at Thirsk last week; should be up to making an impact from an opening mark in the mid-50s.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (40/1 -150%)Mardy Bum |
40/1(-150%) | (4) Mardy Bum 40/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 7l in a nursery at Thirsk last time; wide draw; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; needs more although drop to 5f a help. Good third on nursery debut at Catterick (5f, good to firm) but well-held third third over 6f there a week later and she trailed throughout at Thirsk (6f again; Enemy Action ahead of her) since.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (11/1 -38%)Kaiulani Spirit |
11/1(-38%) | (6) Kaiulani Spirit 11/1, Yard won this last year; ran to form, best work late beaten 7l in a novice at Catterick last time; blinkers first time; top course trainer; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; might do better now handicapping. Has hinted at ability on all three 5f starts and the return to a stiff track for nursery debut should suit having been taken off his feet at Catterick latest; also gets first-time blinkers; possible improver.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (33/1 +0%)Articulate |
33/1(+0%) | (10) Articulate 33/1, Again ran to a moderate level well beaten in a novice at Thirsk latest; sire high-class at 6f, dam fair at 7f; major improvement needed now handicapping. Down the field in three 5f outings in recent weeks; more chance in this company but still hard to fancy from 6lb out of the weights.. |

Mrs Mole produced her best effort so far when third at Lingfield and the manner of that performance suggests an opening mark of 60 is a workable one. Johns Power is another open to improvement on his nursery bow, but preference is for ENEMY ACTION. The application of cheekpieces are likely to sharpen him up in the early stages and that might help to make the difference based on his recent fourth at Thirsk.

1st (2) (11/2 -10%)State Of Gold |
11/2(-10%) | (2) State Of Gold 11/2, Run of race, improved when second beaten 1 1/4l in a novice at Ripon latest; off a short-break; effective 6f on good; might improve further now handicapping up in trip. Best effort when second of 11 in 6f Ripon novice (good) eight weeks ago; mixed messages from that form but her pedigree provides hope that the longer trip could suit now handicapping.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (8/1 +20%)Court Legend |
8/1(+20%) | (5) Court Legend 8/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a novice at Chester most recent; usually held up; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; another who could improve now upped to 7f. Signs of ability in three qualifying runs over 6f; steps up in trip for nursery debut after five weeks off; all the more interesting if backed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (1/1 +60%)Ariane Sky |
1/1(+60%) | (1) Ariane Sky 1/1, Run of race, good attitude landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; trainer in form; effective 7f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; chance of more to come with mark still fair. Improved to make a winning start to her handicap career over the extended 7f at Ffos Las (good) 16 days ago, making virtually all under Mason Paetel; a 3lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (11/1 -175%)Sovereign Beach |
11/1(-175%) | (6) Sovereign Beach 11/1, Improved on handicap debut beaten 3/4l off this mark at Chepstow last time; wide draw; effective 6f; more to offer up to 7f now. Improved when 0.75l third of six on 6f Chepstow nursery debut (good to firm) three weeks ago and her stablemate who won that race followed up back at Chepstow on Sunday; merits plenty of respect off an unchanged mark, particularly as the longer trip may help (dam 1m winner); Ollie Sangster's 6-11 Beverley record is another positive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (9/2 +18%)Amantha |
9/2(+18%) | (3) Amantha 9/2, Bit keen, ran to form beaten 3l off this mark at Musselburgh last time; effective 7f on sound surface; in fine form, mark still competitive. Led close home to win 7f Musselburgh seller (good) in June; shaped best when short-headed in a C\u0026D novice (good to firm) next time but hasn't reproduced that form when third in two nurseries back at Musselburgh since; needs to bounce back to her best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (28/1 -75%)Bonjour Belle |
28/1(-75%) | (7) Bonjour Belle 28/1, Lacked pace when fourth beaten 9l in a nursery at Thirsk latest; effective 7f; slightly longer trip a plus. Has yet to build on her debut, including a remote fourth of six on last week's 7f Thirsk nursery debut; her claims aren't obvious (mark due to be 3lb lower from weekend).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (33/1 -175%)Farndale |
33/1(-175%) | (8) Farndale 33/1, Again below form on handicap debut beaten 3 1/2l off a 3lb higher mark here last time; top course trainer; wide draw; seems effective 7f; mark easing but needs more. Only modest so far, including last of five (Amantha second) on C\u0026D nursery debut (good to firm) six weeks ago; improvement needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (100/1 -203%)Whisper Angel |
100/1(-203%) | (11) Whisper Angel 100/1, Never in it after a slow start well beaten in a novice at Newcastle latest; major improvement needed on what we've seen. Well beaten in three starts last month, including 7f; yard in form but she's best watched unless the betting hints otherwise. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (14/1 +0%)Yorkshire Dream |
14/1(+0%) | (10) Yorkshire Dream 14/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a novice at York most recent; wide draw; effective 5f on good to firm; improvement likely now handicapping. Well held in three 5f/6f starts in the first half of the summer; gelded ahead of this handicap debut over a longer trip; worth a look in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (40/1 -186%)Wells Fargo Stage |
40/1(-186%) | (9) Wells Fargo Stage 40/1, Found little, again ran to a moderate level beaten 10l in a novice at Ripon last time; top course trainer; needs more now handicapping up in trip. Never a serious threat in three qualifying runs over 6f/7f; should stand more chance in nurseries but even an opening mark in the low-50s isn't obviously generous.. |

ARIANE SKY got off the mark at Ffos Las on her nursery debut and a 3lb rise appears to be more than fair. There should be more to come from James Owen's filly and she can prove too strong for State of Gold, who improved when runner-up at Ripon in June and the extra distance might see her in a better light. Others to consider are Sovereign Beach and Amantha.

1st (9) (7/2 +22%)Shazani |
7/2(+22%) | (9) Shazani 7/2, Run of race, ran to best down to 6f landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; enjoys making it; effective 6-8f, acts on any, likes Doncaster; fair mark still, can go well again down to 5f. Made all and held on in tenacious fashion at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; handily drawn but he faces competition for the lead on what is only the second 5f start of his career.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (16/1 -167%)Call To Action |
16/1(-167%) | (1) Call To Action 16/1, Ran to form benefitting from drop in class beaten a head off a 1lb lower mark at Hamilton last time; off a short-break; effective 5/6f on a sound surface; better of late in blinkers, can go well. Fine runner-up efforts on two of his three starts this year and should give it another good go if fully tuned after ten weeks off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (10/1 +50%)Castan |
10/1(+50%) | (3) Castan 10/1, Again below form beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Thirsk last time; suited by 5f, acts on sound surface; back down to last winning mark. 5f AW win in April; hasn't reproduced that in four subsequent turf outings but he's back on that last successful mark and has run well here before.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (50/1 -150%)Infinity Blue |
50/1(-150%) | (10) Infinity Blue 50/1, Chance went when not coming out the stalls on terms beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; returning from long layoff; effective 6/7f, acts on any; needs to bounce back from poor run. Sole win from 21 starts came at Newmarket (6f, good) in August 2024; also posted a couple of decent placed efforts last August but ended 2025 on a low note and off for ten months ahead of this reappearance; a watching brief is the percentage call.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (5/2 +58%)Ventura Express |
5/2(+58%) | (7) Ventura Express 5/2, Yard won this last year; ran to form beaten a length off this mark at York last time; suited by 5f, acts on a sound surface; capable off this mark. Has drawn a blank since scoring over C\u0026D in July 2024 but he's on a dangerous mark and latest keeping-on fourth of 17 at York (5f, good to firm) was encouraging with a return to a stiff 5f in mind (all six wins here and at Pontefract).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (20/1 -100%)Good Earth |
20/1(-100%) | (5) Good Earth 20/1, Step back in right direction beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Newmarket (July) last time; effective 5f/6f, acts on any; competitively weighted still, chance here. Recorded his 13th turf win when scoring in good style at Haydock (6f, good to firm) in April; respectable fifth of ten at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago but he remains 4lb above the mark he defied at Haydock.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (7/4 +71%)American Bay |
7/4(+71%) | (4) American Bay 7/4, Yard won this last year; back to form beaten 2 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; top course jockey; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing but needs more. Runner-up off 2lb higher at Redcar (5f, good to firm) in June; respectable fifth (Castan sixth) of 12 at Thirsk (5f, good) 12 days ago; enters calculations for last year's winning yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (22/1 -57%)Holbache |
22/1(-57%) | (2) Holbache 22/1, Bit keen, found little, below form when fifth beaten 6l off 75 last time, same mark here; off a short-break; suited by 6f or stiff test at 5f, acts on any; new mark looks stiff. Admirable 8yo who recorded his 11th win when surging clear on his reappearance at Catterick (6f, good to firm) under Tom Kiely-Marshall in May; not in the same form when last of five at Nottingham (6f again) since but he's bagged the inside stall on his first Beverley visit and is capable of bouncing back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (33/1 -65%)Opal Storm |
33/1(-65%) | (12) Opal Storm 33/1, No run at all, run best forgotten when eighth beaten 6l off 58 last time, 1lb lower here; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; worth another chance as it all went wrong latest. Won this in 2024 and landed a second C\u0026D win when getting up late to see off nine rivals on good to firm last month; can have a line put through her subsequent effort here as she was repeatedly denied a clear run.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (18/1 -80%)Jojo Rabbit |
18/1(-80%) | (11) Jojo Rabbit 18/1, Not best of runs, hit the line well beaten 2 1/4l off this mark here last time; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on any, goes well in front; chance if building on latest when should have been closer. Made all at Pontefract (5f, good to soft; has won on good to firm) in April; beaten only a head over C\u0026D off 1lb higher in May and arguably unlucky not to go close at the least over C\u0026D again last time, finishing well for fourth having met trouble at a crucial stage; his draw isn't ideal but still respected.. |

SHAZANI benefited from the return to 6f when just holding on at Doncaster following a string of consistent events at the same venue. Despite a 3lb rise, there is every chance he can progress again dropping to the minimum distance. Ingleby Archie has been running well all season and commands respect after being dropped 1lb for his latest fifth at York, while Call To Action is another with strong claims.

1st (4) (11/8 +66%)Wardlaw |
11/8(+66%) | (4) Wardlaw 11/8, Bit keen after slow start, found little and eased when 75l third in a handicap at Doncaster most recent run; hood first time; trainer in form; effective 12-14f, acts on good and AW; got the talent to win off this mark but comes with risks. Raw material is clearly there to win races over 1m4f and beyond, but couldn't have got more wrong at Doncaster latest, overcompensating for having again fluffed the start (beaten 75l); hood replaces blinkers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3/1 +10%)Grey Fable |
3/1(+10%) | (3) Grey Fable 3/1, Run of race, improved a little upped in grade fourth beaten 3/4l off 59 last time, same mark here; top course jockey; effective up to 12f, suited by cut, acts on good and AW; chance once again in a small field. Passed by Mr Moonshine close home when fourth at Chester latest, beaten under 1l and clear of Sisterandbrother and Return With Gold; well treated on 2024's peak form, but winless around any course this galloping.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/4 +10%)Mr Moonshine |
9/4(+10%) | (6) Mr Moonshine 9/4, Ran to form up to 12f beaten 1/4l off this mark at Chester last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 8-12f, likely to get further, acts on good; might have more to offer at this sort of trip. Has belied a pedigree not obviously conducive to middle distances in recording two recent near misses, including a neck third at Chester latest (1m4f, good) with three reopposing rivals held; chance off an unchanged mark, assuming no adverse reaction to the debuted cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (13/2 -86%)That Darn Cantor |
13/2(-86%) | (5) That Darn Cantor 13/2, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; effective 12f on sound surface; chance once again off current mark. Recent step up to 1m4f and fitting of cheekpieces has returned him to the level of his peak 2yo effort, and still had running left at the end of a slightly better Thirsk Class 5 than this last time; chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (50/1 -100%)Return With Gold |
50/1(-100%) | (1) Return With Gold 50/1, Found little, below form on Flat turf debut down the field in a handicap at Chester most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective 10-12f, acts on AW; all to prove on turf for now. 18l behind Mr Moonshine when tenth of ten at Chester latest (1m4f); slight ease still leaves him 4lb above his highest winning mark, and cheekpieces will likely need to inspire a career best.. |

MR MOONSHINE has been knocking on the door with a pair of narrow defeats since going up in distance. Beaten a short-head into second at Hamilton and a neck into third at Chester, the application of first-time cheekpieces are likely to aid his cause and he can get his head in front now. That Darn Cantor is steadily improving and is capable of being in the mix, while Wardlaw is expected to bounce back from a lacklustre effort at Doncaster.

1st (3) (6/5 +13%)Saxon Grace |
6/5(+13%) | (3) Saxon Grace 6/5, Bit keen but scored with plenty in hand under a penalty landing a handicap by 3l off a 6lb lower mark at Redcar last time; effective 6-8f, acts on good, good to firm and AW; more to come, chance again here. Penultimate start had presaged an imminent breakthrough, and a first try over the 1m trip her dam won at duly reaped reward at Redcar last week (good to firm; RPR 59); case clear if over that effort; 1lb well in.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (6/1 +20%)Copper And Five |
6/1(+20%) | (5) Copper And Five 6/1, Below form beaten 4 1/2l in a classified race at Thirsk last time; effective around 1m, acts on soft and good to firm; not at best last two starts. C\u0026D record read 14224 before June's below-par run, and a foray into classified company since bore no fruit either; wouldn't dismiss outright from this lowest mark he's ever raced off in a handicap, however.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (15/2 -7%)Back From Dubai |
15/2(-7%) | (4) Back From Dubai 15/2, Lacked pace down to 7f when sixth beaten 6l off 51 last time, 1lb lower here; wide draw; effective 7-10f, acts on any; mark fair but needs more this time. A repeat of the form of either May's Doncaster 7f win (good to soft) or last September's second over today's C\u0026D (soft) would see him go close; over four years now since his sole win on fast turf, however.. |

4th (1) (10/1 -82%)Dumfries |
10/1(-82%) | (1) Dumfries 10/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap here last time; usually held up; wide draw; effective 7/8f, acts best on fast ground; mark easing but needs more. Hostage to fortune under his usual running style but defied trouble in running for both 7.5f wins here last year, one at this meeting off today's mark; should be coming to the boil after two staying-on efforts over that same C\u0026D this term, and did win third time out in 2025; very interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (16/1 -60%)Ten Sixty Six |
16/1(-60%) | (6) Ten Sixty Six 16/1, Ran to form beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Hamilton last time; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; inconsistent maiden, bounce back needed. All but held on in a 7.5f fillies' maiden here a year ago, and best effort since came when a staying-on C\u0026D fourth two runs back; claims on that, so long as a weakening effort at Hamilton last time is forgiven.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (9/2 +68%)Amarachi |
9/2(+68%) | (2) Amarachi 9/2, Too keen, didn't get home beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 6-8f, acts on good to firm and AW; bounce back needed but mark is fair. Raced on turf only once since June 2025's Yarmouth handicap debut win (6f), going close over just shy of today's trip twice in the winter; no threat on either previous return from a triple-figure number of days out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (22/1 -83%)Royal Sizzler |
22/1(-83%) | (9) Royal Sizzler 22/1, Bit keen, didn't see out 10f when fourth beaten 6l in a handicap here latest; off a short-break; dam Listed-placed 7f winner; yet to show any reliable signs of ability. Attainment level in handicaps not clarified by June's weakening 6l fourth here that perhaps owed more to racing wastefully than to the 1m2f (winners at that trip in immediate family); may learn more today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (14/1 -65%)Harswell River |
14/1(-65%) | (10) Harswell River 14/1, Below form beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Ripon last time; wide draw; effective at 7/10f, acts on soft and good to firm; bounce back needed but capable off this mark. Beaten favourite in the 7.5f nursery on this card last year, but better than a record of 1-23 might imply and she remains 4lb below her winning mark; likely goaded into overracing last time over a 1m2f trip she's still quite new to, and return to about 1m for now may do no harm.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (125/1 -56%)Sweet Cicely |
125/1(-56%) | (7) Sweet Cicely 125/1, Never in it from off the pace ridden to get 2m when fourth beaten 17l in a handicap at Redcar latest; effective 8-10f on sound surface; hard to make a case for. 0-23; struggling to beat many home this turf season, faring no better for a step up to 2m at Redcar last time; others likelier.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (100/1 +33%)Aurora's Doublesix |
100/1(+33%) | (8) Aurora's Doublesix 100/1, Again ran to a poor level comfortably held in a novice at Ripon last time; hard to form any sort of case on what we've seen. 0-18; more realistic assignment today following last week's Ripon novice tilt, but preceding efforts in handicaps fall some way short of the required; work on from out of the weights.. |

SAXON GRACE has been heading in the right direction since stepping up in trip at the start of the month. Having finished third at Hamilton, the three-year-old ran out a comfortable winner at Redcar on Saturday and a 6lb penalty might not be enough to stop her from following up. Harswell River is likely to return to form after her latest effort at Ripon, while a drop in trip may suit Royal Sizzler.

1st (4) (9/4 +32%)Luker's Tipple |
9/4(+32%) | (4) Luker's Tipple 9/4, Ran to form defying penalty, got first run when winning a novice hurdle at Sligo by 3l last time; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; consistent hurdler, could be progressing now he's getting his head in front and looks a big player on chase debut. Has hit top form recently; followed up an easy win in a weak Downpatrick maiden hurdle (2m2f, good) with success in a Sligo novice contest (2m2f, good); his rating of 120 over hurdles is the best on offer here but he must transfer it to fences on this chasing bow.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5/2 -67%)Killeemore Lad |
5/2(-67%) | (3) Killeemore Lad 5/2, Went clear with winner early, ran to form suited by aggressive ride when second beaten 4 1/2l in a beginners chase chase at Roscommon latest; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on good; in good form since switch to chasing, chance. Dual-purpose sort; rated 112 over hurdles; was in the process of running a cracker when returning from 745 days off on his chasing debut at Wexford before falling at the last; pulled a long way clear with one other at Roscommon 13 days later when runner-up (2m1f, soft); this is another run relatively quickly but he looks like he has improved for fences.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/1 +25%)Missus Beeton |
9/1(+25%) | (5) Missus Beeton 9/1, Ran to form, forced wide down the field in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent; usually held up; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on soft and good; generally consistent hurdler, threat if getting stiff test on chase debut. Bagged back-to-back mares' handicap hurdles in January/March at Down Royal and Leopardstown at 2m1f/2m3f on soft ground; form has dipped in three runs since, including when beaten 18.5l at Galway last time (2m1f, good); cheekpieces return and the tongue tie is new; one of the top rated over hurdles for this chasing bow but needs to bring her best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (12/1 -33%)Cappa Hill |
12/1(-33%) | (2) Cappa Hill 12/1, Let down by jumping on chase debut comfortably held in a novice chase at Killarney last time; effective 2m, acts on good; needs drop in class and more experience over fences. Won back-to-back handicaps at Cork (2m1f, good) and Tipperary (2m, good to yielding) in August/October; hasn't hit same heights since; unplaced in points and switch to chasing didn't bring improvement at Killarney last time when beaten 28l.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (5/1 -11%)Tell Us This |
5/1(-11%) | (1) Tell Us This 5/1, Yard won this last year; improved back on better ground when winning a handicap chase at Galway by 2 1/2l last time; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on soft but suited by good; progressive over hurdles and fences, may do better over summer. Dual hurdles winner got off the mark over fences for the first time at the eighth attempt at the Galway festival (2m2f, good); 4lb penalty for that could prove pivotal and his overall form doesn't suggest that a follow-up is guaranteed; trainer won this race last year though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (6/1 +20%)Playtime |
6/1(+20%) | (6) Playtime 6/1, Flattened out having made big move comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Galway last time; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; consistent hurdler, can get involved on chase debut. Flat winner is 1-11 over hurdles, having been successful in a Leopardstown maiden hurdle in March (2m, soft to heavy); good runner-up finish to the smart Switch From Diesel in a Punchestown novice hurdle in June was his best run since (2m1f, good); makes chasing debut now and his hurdles rating of 115 gives him a shout but his recent runs have been a bit below his best.. |

Luker's Tipple had little difficulty in completing a double over timber at Sligo recently and merits consideration on his chase bow. However, KILLEEMORE LAD found only a 124-rated rival too strong on his most recent outing at Roscommon and his experience could prove invaluable. Galway Festival winner Tell Us This is heading in the right direction, although a 4lb penalty demands another career best.

1st (8) (7/1 +13%)Alice De Clare |
7/1(+13%) | (8) Alice De Clare 7/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Leicester penultimate start; bit below form seventh beaten 5 1/4l off 72 last time, same mark here; off a short-break; suited by 10f, acts on good to firm and AW; progressive since handicapping, but more needed off this mark now. Made a bright start in handicaps, with a second at Beverley followed by 1m2f wins at Yarmouth and Leicester (both on good to firm); still unexposed after only seven starts but she didn't fire on turf here last time and needs to resume her progress back on AW.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (9/2 +10%)Barbury Boy |
9/2(+10%) | (7) Barbury Boy 9/2, Scored by a neck off a 5lb lower mark at Nottingham penultimate start; below form seventh beaten 10l off 74 last time, same mark here; effective 10f, acts on a sound surface; progressive since handicapping, but mark might be stiff now. Made it 2-3 in handicaps when scoring at Nottingham (1m2f, good) in June but he flopped with a laboured effort at Sandown (beaten 9l) last month; still lightly raced but he's a been a bit up and down so far and needs to bounce back again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 +11%)Kaaranah |
4/1(+11%) | (1) Kaaranah 4/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; trainer in form; effective 8-10f, 9.5f may be sweet spot, best recent form on AW; chance to complete hat-trick despite another rise in the weights. Has won at Wolverhampton (9.4f, Tapeta) in four of his last six starts, including a comfortable success from a wide draw three weeks ago; up another 4lb but he still looks feasibly treated and this return to Polytrack should be fine; big player in hat-trick bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/4 +68%)Booziebrunch |
9/4(+68%) | (5) Booziebrunch 9/4, Scored by 8 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) penultimate start; bit below form second beaten 3 1/4l off 75 last time, same mark here; effective 7-10f, acts on a sound surface; more needed off this career-high mark. Got back on the scoresheet with a runaway win over two rivals at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) in June; held in another small-field event at Epsom last time but that was a solid front-running effort behind an improver; still unexposed at this trip and he should be in the mix again back on AW.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (10/1 -43%)Jack Sparowe |
10/1(-43%) | (4) Jack Sparowe 10/1, Scored by 3 1/4l off a 8lb lower mark at Yarmouth three starts back; ran to form third beaten 3l off 69 last time, same mark here; trainer in form; off a short-break; suited by 10-12f, acts on most; good chance again in current mood. Ended a long losing run in first-time blinkers at Yarmouth (1m2f, good) in May and he's continued the good work with placed efforts in both subsequent runs (AW/turf); still looks on a workable mark and has claims if this sets up for his closing style.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (11/2 -22%)Barry's Boy |
11/2(-22%) | (3) Barry's Boy 11/2, Ran to form up to 9.5f beaten 1 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective around 8/9f, acts on good and AW; chance if building on latest. Has a patchy profile but he won at Newcastle (1m, AW) in March and was as good as ever when runner-up at Wolverhampton (9.4f) last time; only 1lb higher back on Polytrack and he could make another bold bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (20/1 -122%)Turku |
20/1(-122%) | (9) Turku 20/1, Much below form on handicap debut down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; visor first time; stays 8-10f, acts on AW; needs a lot more. Showed promise in novice events at Chelmsford last winter but he failed to beat a rival when 4-1 favourite on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (9.4f; cheekpieces added) last month; that was from a wide draw but he hung right and has bit to prove after that disappointing effort; first-time visor replaces cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (33/1 -65%)City Of God |
33/1(-65%) | (2) City Of God 33/1, Ran to about current level beaten 4l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; off a short-break; effective 7-9f, suited by AW; 5lb below last winning mark, but needs a lot more. Won with cheekpieces added at Chelmsford (1m, Polytrack) in February but that was a seller and he's been well back in handicaps in three runs for his current yard; continues to drop down the weights but he's untried at this trip and others are preferred.. |

Kaaranah has won four of his last six starts at Wolverhampton and the veteran seemingly reserves his very best for that venue. With that in mind, a chance can be taken on BARBURY BOY, who had been improving before a lacklustre Sandown effort, which can be forgiven because he did miss the break on that occasion. Booziebrunch is also noted.

(1) (11/8 +59%)Kimeko Glory |
11/8(+59%) | (1) Kimeko Glory 11/8, Bit keen in front and set it up for closer when fourth beaten 7l in a handicap at Sandown latest; cheekpieces first time; suited by 10f, stays 12f, acts on a sound surface; bounce back needed but handicapper is relenting. She has struggled to recapture her 3yo best this term, latterly beaten 7l in a 1m2f Sandown handicap she won readily last year; today's drop back in trip and new cheekpieces could help, however, and this is probably her easiest task for a while; can't be ruled out from a dangerous mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/8 +31%)Sydney Rock |
11/8(+31%) | (2) Sydney Rock 11/8, Returned to form back down in trip settling much better beaten 1/2l off this mark at Chepstow last time; effective 7f, acts on fast ground and AW; well treated off unchanged mark, could be capable of better now she's settling. Runner-up all three starts as a juvenile and after a miserable start to this season she was back in form when second again, this time at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) one week ago; still needs to prove herself at 1m, but she finished it off well last time and should be in the shake-up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (2/1 +27%)Decalogue |
2/1(+27%) | (3) Decalogue 2/1, Too much to do having missed the break and been forced to switch beaten 2l off this mark at Newmarket (July) last time; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; effective 7/8f, acts on good to firm; could be running into form, latest run franked. Took a decent step forward on his second handicap start when third at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last Thursday; missed the break that day so better can be expected again if getting away on terms; player in his fresh cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (3/1 +75%)Thiscouldbefun |
3/1(+75%) | (4) Thiscouldbefun 3/1, Badly hampered, eased beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Windsor last time; effective 7/8f, acts on any; below last winning mark, drop in trip a plus. Exposed filly who has been in patchy form this year, including when beating one home over 1m2f at Windsor last month; drop back in trip will help, and she's 3lb below her last winning mark, but others look safer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (10/1 -67%)Amathus |
10/1(-67%) | (6) Amathus 10/1, Ran to form back down in trip needing every yard landing a handicap by a neck off a 2lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; effective 7f/1m, acts on sound surface; remains well treated on old form, longer trip no issue and likes the track. Eight-time winner who likes it here, as evidenced by him winning an amateur riders' handicap (7f) for the second year in succession last time; stays this trip and has to enter calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (14/1 +30%)Zipwire |
14/1(+30%) | (5) Zipwire 14/1, Outpaced, never threatened, poorly placed in race dominated from front comfortably held in a handicap here last time; effective 1m-10f, acts on soft, firm and AW; consistent until latest. Dual AW winner but he's yet to score on turf and his fair effort at Windsor (1m) in June was sandwiched by two moderate ones at 1m2f; return to this trip is a positive and there's nothing wrong with his mark but others hold more pressing claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (66/1 +56%)Ebn Sabt |
66/1(+56%) | (7) Ebn Sabt 66/1, Never travelled in first time visor well beaten in a handicap at Ffos Las latest; effective 7/8f, acts on AW; out of form, hard to fancy. Beat a rival for the first time this term when eighth of nine at Ffos Las nine days ago; still finished 16l adrift and he's impossible to recommend.. |

Amathus justified favouritism when getting back to winning ways over 7f here last month and the nine-year-old commands plenty of respect from just 2lb higher. That said, the less-exposed DECALOGUE appears likely to have more to offer. Jamie Osborne's gelding has stepped forward on both of his handicap starts and further improvement may be on the cards with first-time cheekpieces applied. Sydney Rock heads the remainder.

(6) (3/1 +57%)Maid In Devon |
3/1(+57%) | (6) Maid In Devon 3/1, Below form after getting hampered sixth beaten 9l off 67 last time, same mark here; effective 6f, handles soft and good to firm; excuses latest, in red-hot form prior. Secured her hat-trick over 6f on soft and fast ground; only 2lb higher than for the last of those wins and it wasn't her fault when losing position quite early last time at Salisbury; needs considering.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (4/1 +64%)Koffee And Kale |
4/1(+64%) | (10) Koffee And Kale 4/1, Ran to form up to 7f beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Epsom last time; effective 5-7f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; drop to 6f not sure to suit. Hasn't looked on that good a mark since winning as a 2yo and ordinary of late, with and without headgear.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (9/2 -29%)Solar Invincible |
9/2(-29%) | (1) Solar Invincible 9/2, Bit keen but ran to form beaten a length off a 1lb lower mark here last time; effective at 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; consistent enough and mark still fair. Dual 5f winner who ran well on his belated return to 6f here 17 days ago, finishing second to Madman despite taking a strong hold; Billy Loughnane has been aboard for both his wins and he now returns.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (6/1 -33%)Madman |
6/1(-33%) | (11) Madman 6/1, Improved back down to 6f landing a handicap by a length off a 4lb lower mark here last time; suited by 6f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; competitively weighted still, chance again. No match for Maid In Devon three runs back but probably his best form yet when beating Solar Invincible over C\u0026D 17 days ago; 4lb rise is fair enough.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (13/2 -8%)Guernsey Angel |
13/2(-8%) | (3) Guernsey Angel 13/2, Bit keen and flattened out late beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark here last time; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; bounce back needed but capable off this mark. Both wins at 5f on Southwell AW; second at Leicester (6f) before a lesser show here 17 days ago when she got warm before the race; could be given another chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (9/1 -6%)Pilgrim's Progress |
9/1(-6%) | (4) Pilgrim's Progress 9/1, Travelled, ran to best down to 5f when second beaten a head in a maiden here latest; suited by 5/6f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; respected back in a handicap. Back at 5f when going close in a maiden here recently; didn't really threaten in two handicaps prior to that, even when second at Lingfield; should run well but perhaps vulnerable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 -60%)Court Alert |
12/1(-60%) | (2) Court Alert 12/1, Ran to form when second beaten 3 1/2l in a novice at Leicester latest; effective 5/6f, acts on good to firm; two good runs since blinkers have gone on. Maiden who has been disappointing since finishing second in a 6f sales race at Newmarket a year ago and was no match for the winner when second in a small field three weeks back (5f; second run in blinkers); makes handicap debut on ninth career start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (16/1 +0%)Double Naughty |
16/1(+0%) | (9) Double Naughty 16/1, Never in it from off the pace, ran as though something amiss when seventh last time; trainer in form; suited by 6f, two best runs on fast ground; back to last winning mark, could bounce back. 0-5 for Richard Hannon; successful seasonal/stable debut at Bath (5.5f, good to firm) in May but lesser performances have followed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (28/1 +0%)Two And Two |
28/1(+0%) | (8) Two And Two 28/1, Appeared not to stay down the field in a handicap at Fairyhouse most recent; effective 6f, acts on heavy and AW; inconsistent in short career, longer trip a plus but needs more. Won a 6f AW race in Ireland on second career start; close fifth on her handicap debut afterwards when tried in a hood that's been absent since (lost her way); sold in July for 3,000gns; others safer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (40/1 -122%)Dark Alley |
40/1(-122%) | (5) Dark Alley 40/1, Again below form tried in cheekpieces beaten 5l in a handicap here last time; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; needs more than of late. Bath maiden winner last July (5.5f); lightly raced since and pretty poor in his last two starts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (80/1 -627%)Deadline |
80/1(-627%) | (7) Deadline 80/1, Step back in right direction down to 6f comfortably held in a maiden at Wolverhampton last time; effective 6/7f; possible improver now handicapping. Best of his three runs was on debut in a 7f novice at Doncaster; subsequent efforts leave him with much to prove on this handicap debut.. |

MADMAN had Solar Invincible (second) a length in arrears when victorious over C&D last month and although 3lb worse off on this occasion, he's taken to confirm that form en route to further success. Pilgrim's Progress has been knocking at the door and must enter calculations and don't rule out Maid In Devon, whose bid for a four-timer fell flat at Salisbury.

(2) (3/1 +25%)Coded Welder |
3/1(+25%) | (2) Coded Welder 3/1, Helped set it up for closers well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Galway latest; effective 2m4f-2m7f, acts on good to yielding and good; generally in good form over hurdles this summer; contender on chase debut. Placed in a point before falling in his second; 0-9 over hurdles but some okay runs in defeat; runner-up in a Cork handicap hurdle off 105 on stable debut in May; didn't match that in two subsequent outings; could do better over fences; not dismissed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (3/1 +14%)Kasper Hauser |
3/1(+14%) | (9) Kasper Hauser 3/1, Ran to form back up in trip benefitting from drop in class when winning a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan by 4l last time; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on soft and good; track should suit, leading claims on chase debut. Rated 108 over hurdles; gained a first success at the 12th attempt over hurdles in a weak Kilbeggan maiden hurdle last time (2m3f, good); he's in good form for his chasing debut but others are more appealing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (5/1 +0%)Le Kap |
5/1(+0%) | (6) Le Kap 5/1, Yard has won 2 of last 9 runnings of race; didn't stay down the field in a handicap hurdle at Bellewstown most recent; tongue-tie first time; effective 2 1/2m, acts on soft, good; debut form franked, with top yard but must bounce back switched to fences. Shaped with promise in maidens but serious jumping issues evident on handicap debut at Clonmel in May (2m4f, good to yielding) and his tailed-off finish at Bellewstown last time (3m1f, good) was concerning; rated 107 over hurdles and this yard does wonders with horses over fences so not ruled out on first try chasing with a tongue tie added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (5/1 +0%)Juke Hill |
5/1(+0%) | (5) Juke Hill 5/1, Mistakes, improved in first time blinkers on chase debut when fourth beaten 9l in a beginners chase chase at Wexford latest; effective 2 1/2m, acts on good; may do better over fences when brushing up on jumping. Lightly raced; took well to fences when just run out of it late in a beginners' at Wexford in June; blinkers stay on and he looks like he will rate higher over fences compared to his hurdles rating of 102; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (13/2 +7%)Frankie's Freebie |
13/2(+7%) | (3) Frankie's Freebie 13/2, No obvious excuse down the field in a maiden hurdle at Galway most recent; in good form prior; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on soft, good; point winner, improving over hurdles until latest, chance in an open race on chase debut. Point-to-point winner took the runner-up spot at Punchestown (2m3f, good to yielding) and Roscommon (2m5f, good) before running below his best at Galway (2m6f, good); ignoring his last run he's in good form, he has a healthy hurdles rating of 110 and he has a point background, so there's a lot to like.. |

9/1(-50%) | (1) Burru 9/1, Made too much use of, didn't stay down the field in a handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe most recent; off a short-break; wants 2 1/2m ideally, may not get further, sound surface suits; unexposed over fences but inconsistent. Rated 100 after five runs over fences; the latest of those was a positive third in a Roscommon handicap chase in August last year (2m6f, yielding) off 99; made winning stable debut in a Killarney handicap hurdle in May (2m4f, good to yielding); tailed off at Ballinrobe last time; most experienced of these but others probably more talented.. |

(7) (18/1 +28%)Mephisto |
18/1(+28%) | (7) Mephisto 18/1, Didn't stay on rain softened ground on quick return down the field in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon most recent; effective 2 1/2-2 3/4m over hurdles, best on sound surface; back in form over hurdles until latest but yet to convince as a chaser. Enjoyed a purple patch last summer, winning three handicap hurdles on the bounce at 2m5f-2m7f on good ground; generally struggled since and his latest two runs have been fairly dismal; returns to chasing for the first time since 2024, when he didn't set things alight in three beginners'.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (20/1 -11%)Happy Me |
20/1(-11%) | (4) Happy Me 20/1, Hampered by loose horse, returned to form beaten 9l in a maiden hurdle at Killarney last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft to heavy and good; flattered by best maiden hurdle form, inconsistent, risky on chase debut. Is 0-16 over hurdles and rated 100 in that sphere; nonetheless, his 9l fifth of nine at Killarney last month was one of his better efforts (2m5f, good); fences need to bring improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (66/1 -65%)Rattledelatch |
66/1(-65%) | (8) Rattledelatch 66/1, Never in the race, disappointing handicap debut down the field in a handicap hurdle at Killarney most recent; usually held up; effective 2m, acts on good; plenty of improvement required to figure on chase debut. Beaten a long way in a bumper and four hurdle starts, the latest on handicap debut; mark of 97 over hurdles is possibly flattering so work to do on chasing bow.. |

Having jumped with aplomb when making all over hurdles at Kilbeggan 20 days ago, KASPER HAUSER looks to have the necessary attributes to excel over fences. The four-year-old receives a handy weight-for-age allowance and edges the vote over fellow chase debutant Frankie's Freebie. Although Adrian Sexton's charge finished midfield at the Galway Festival, his previous efforts over timber indicates that he possesses more ability than most. Juke Hill is the pick of the remainder.

(1) (1/1 +17%)Aljoon |
1/1(+17%) | (1) Aljoon 1/1, Improved on debut effort stepped up to 7f when second beaten a length in a maiden at Catterick latest; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on good to firm; can go well again here. In need of the experience on his debut at Newbury (6f, good to firm) and duly stepped forward when a front-running second of ten at Catterick (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago; sets the standard but he does have the widest stall to negotiate.. |

(4) (11/2 -100%)Huwa Baree |
11/2(-100%) | (4) Huwa Baree 11/2, 29 Mar; 12,000gns Saxon Warrior colt; half-brother to three winners, including First Principle, smart at 9f, and Five Towns, useful 7/8f; dam very smart at 10f; good chance on debut. 12,000gns yearling; sixth foal; closely related to 11.6f winner Three Priests (RPR 107), half-brother to three winners including Five Towns (7f/1m including 2yo/AW/US stakes; 111) and First Principle (1m/8.6f including 2yo/AW; 102); dam US 1m3f turf Grade 3 winner (100); looks the part on paper and he's a newcomer to take seriously.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +40%)Calendar Boy |
6/1(+40%) | (3) Calendar Boy 6/1, Poor beaten 9l in a novice at Salisbury on debut; sire smart over 7-8.5f; step up in trip likely to suit and yard is going well with 2yos this campaign. 22-1 and in need of the experience when down the field in a 6f novice at Salisbury (good to firm) 44 days ago; gelded since; should do better in time and the extra furlong is a plus.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (13/2 +7%)Mr Badger |
13/2(+7%) | (6) Mr Badger 13/2, 31 Mar; 14,000gns Showcasing colt; full-brother to Name The Day, very useful at 7f; half-brother to Wedding Date, useful 5/6f, and Amicia, effective 7f; dam moderate at 7f; wide draw. 14,000gns yearling; ninth foal; brother to 7f winner Name The Day (RPR 72), half-brother to winners Wedding Date (5f/6f including 2yo/AW; 93), Amicia (French 7f; 75) and Secret Potion (5f/6f including 2yo/AW; 74); dam placed over 6f on AW (53); stable have had a couple of 2yo winners this year so not discounted.. |

(2) (8/1 +50%)Brushstroke |
8/1(+50%) | (2) Brushstroke 8/1, 17 Feb; 5,000gns Advertise colt; half-brother to Mister Mojito, fair at 7f; dam very useful at 5f at 2yo; trainer in form; not ruled out on debut. 5,000gns yearling; fourth foal; half-brother to winners Mister Mojito (7f/1m including AW; RPR 81) and Bella Fortunata (6f AW 2yo; 49); dam 5f AW winner (73); starts out at a realistic level and he looks worth a market check.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (11/1 -10%)Gravastar |
11/1(-10%) | (10) Gravastar 11/1, Ran to same poor level beaten 6l in a maiden here last time; sire effective 6/7f, dam useful stayer; plenty more needed. Given a BHA rating of 57 after three runs at up to 7f; she needs a big step forward if she is to take this.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (20/1 -25%)Zonneveld |
20/1(-25%) | (8) Zonneveld 20/1, Built on debut effort beaten 5l in a novice at Bath last time; sire high-class sprinter, dam effective 7/8f; more needed again up in trip. Modest form in two sprint runs on fast turf; easy enough to look elsewhere.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (33/1 +34%)Roberts Legacy |
33/1(+34%) | (12) Roberts Legacy 33/1, Never a danger again comfortably held in a maiden here last time; sire top-class 7/8f; step up in trip might suit, but likely to need more time. Down the field in two 6f runs this summer; today's extra furlong isn't enough to tempt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (40/1 -82%)Kiss Cam |
40/1(-82%) | (11) Kiss Cam 40/1, Improved a bit from debut up in trip beaten 8 1/2l in a maiden at Wolverhampton last time; sire effective 6/7f, dam useful over 9f; plenty more needed after first two starts. Unplaced in two runs in fillies' only company, recording a peak RPR of 45; improvement essential.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (50/1 -127%)Northern Exposure |
50/1(-127%) | (7) Northern Exposure 50/1, 23 Apr; Tasleet colt; half-brother to Born A Rebel, useful at 8f; dam fair at 8f; hood first time; probably best watched on debut. Second foal; half-brother to 7f/1m winner Born A Rebel (RPR 75); dam 1m AW winner (76), half-sister to useful 6f/7f winner De Bruyne Horse (including 2yo Listed); hooded for debut; 7lb claimer on board.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (100/1 +20%)Lucky Larry |
100/1(+20%) | (5) Lucky Larry 100/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; sire sprinter, dam stayed a mile; has shown very little in first two starts and has a lot to prove now. Tailed off in two starts (5.7f, good and 7f, AW) in June; hard to recommend.. |

ALJOON was far from disgraced on his racecourse bow before taking a step forward to fill the runner-up spot at Catterick. Jack Jones' gelding should have no issues switching to the all-weather and can use his experience to negate a wide draw. It would come as no surprise were Calendar Boy to improve on his debut effort, while newcomer Huwa Baree makes some appeal.

(3) (4/5 +12%)Flooding |
4/5(+12%) | (3) Flooding 4/5, Green under pressure, very promising effort runner-up beaten 2l in a maiden at Newmarket (July) only start; top course jockey; effective 7f, bred to get further, acts on good to firm; should come on for debut experience. Lively in the market and she did best of the newcomers when second of ten at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) four weeks ago; that bare form already puts her right in the picture and improvement is on the cards.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (1/1 +27%)Tiora Time |
1/1(+27%) | (1) Tiora Time 1/1, Overcame trouble, improved from debut down in class when winning a maiden at Doncaster by 2l last time; effective 7f, acts on good to firm, likely to get further judged on breeding; debut form franked, big player under penalty. 16,000gns yearling; built on promising debut when justifying good support with convincing win at Doncaster (6.5f, good to firm) 12 days ago; 7lb penalty is largely wiped out by her allowance and she holds strong claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/1 -57%)All Angels |
11/1(-57%) | (2) All Angels 11/1, Green, never travelled, modest effort beaten 6l in a novice at Windsor on debut; sire a sprinter, dam a 10f winner; should improve for initial experience stepped up in trip. 8,500gns foal, £55,000 yearling; missed the break and looked green on her debut when sixth of eight at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month; yard's juveniles often take a good step forward from their introduction so no surprise to see her more competitive this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (40/1 -21%)Virtue Humble |
40/1(-21%) | (4) Virtue Humble 40/1, Green, modest effort beaten 9 1/2l in a maiden at Newbury on debut; speed in pedigree; should improve a little for initial experience but needs to. 66-1 when she finished ninth of 11 on her introduction at Newbury (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; will need a firm step forward.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (100/1 -100%)Polgaria |
100/1(-100%) | (5) Polgaria 100/1, Green, well held on AW debut beaten 7l in a maiden at Lingfield last time; sire effective up 12f, dam fair sprinter; lots of progress required. Improved on her very moderate debut when beaten 7l at Lingfield (7f, AW) nine days ago; that still leaves her someway adrift of the required standard.. |

TIORA TIME benefited from her debut third at Epsom when scoring at Doncaster in decent fashion at the start of the month and Tom Clover's filly makes plenty of appeal in her attempt to follow up. Flooding displayed signs of inexperience when runner-up at Newmarket and she is entitled to step forward, while All Angels' first start at Windsor wasn't without promise.

(3) (5/2 +29%)Beelzebub |
5/2(+29%) | (3) Beelzebub 5/2, Ran to form albeit beaten at short odds second beaten a length off 51 last time, 6lb higher here; top course trainer; effective 6/7f, acts on sound surface; good chance once again. Exploited reduced mark on yard debut over C\u0026D but was beaten at odds-on when escaping a penalty at Ffos Las; that was a missed opportunity as he's now 6lb higher.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (10/3 +26%)Methgal |
10/3(+26%) | (2) Methgal 10/3, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Yarmouth last time; probably suited by 7/8f, acts on a yielding and AW; drop to 6f not certain to suit. Ran three times as a 2yo for Karl Burke before moving to Ireland, where he won a handicap at Dundalk (7f, AW) in March; joined this yard for 6,000gns and finished second at Yarmouth last month (6-5f; 7f); this is a belated first go at 6f but he has shown early speed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (7/2 +65%)May Encounter |
7/2(+65%) | (7) May Encounter 7/2, Ran to form despite a stumble tried in a hood beaten 2 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark at Salisbury last time; trainer in form; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; mark continues to ease, but needs more. Consistent maiden who was no worse for the hood going on when fourth at Salisbury (6f); she would have been closer with a clearer run.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (11/2 -10%)Legendsoftheland |
11/2(-10%) | (6) Legendsoftheland 11/2, Ran to form, hit the line well landing a handicap by a short-head off a 1lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; effective extended 5-7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; has been helped by wind op and in very good form. All the better for wind/gelding operations, since producing figures of 3212131; it was by a narrow margin last time and the second disappointed at Chepstow earlier this week, but this 4yo only went up 1lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (8/1 +0%)Rianka |
8/1(+0%) | (11) Rianka 8/1, Improved to get off the mark up to 6f landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Yarmouth last time; effective 6f on good to firm; more to come from this improving filly. Out of a Listed winner; contesting only her second handicap (tongue tied for both) when coming from behind to win narrowly at Yarmouth (6f); has to be considered off 3lb higher.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (10/1 -11%)Lahina Bay |
10/1(-11%) | (4) Lahina Bay 10/1, Bit below form, didn't see it out 4l third in a handicap here most recent run; effective 5/6f, acts on heavy, good to firm and AW; needs more off current mark. Three-time course winner (5f/6f) who often leads, as was the case when a 4l third of five here ten days ago; that was a bit disappointing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (14/1 -56%)Beach Partee |
14/1(-56%) | (10) Beach Partee 14/1, Ran to form back up to 6f beaten 3/4l off this mark at Brighton last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; chance once again off this mark. 3-23; got going too late when runner-up over Brighton's 6f last week; might again hit a flat spot here and may prefer some give underfoot.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (18/1 +36%)The Feminine Urge |
18/1(+36%) | (5) The Feminine Urge 18/1, Below form comfortably held in a handicap at Ffos Las last time; in good form prior; effective 5f/6f, acts on a sound surface; bounce back needed but mark is fair. Three-time winner for George Scott; signs of getting back on track off her reduced mark last month only to then run poorly last week at Ffos Las.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (25/1 -127%)Elmfield |
25/1(-127%) | (9) Elmfield 25/1, Ran to form 3l third in a novice at Bath most recent run; effective 6f on sound surface; type to do better now handicapping. Has got closer in each of her runs, last time showing good speed before weakening into third over Bath's extended 5f; doesn't look on a strikingly good mark for handicap debut but still early days for this well-bred filly, and Liam Wright takes off 5lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (28/1 +15%)One For Harvey |
28/1(+15%) | (8) One For Harvey 28/1, Lacked pace beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Yarmouth last time; effective 5/6f on a sound surface; not at best of late, mark easing. Only 1-15 and recently joined this yard for 5,000gns; didn't get the clearest of runs behind Rianka at Yarmouth but she's unconvincing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (33/1 -50%)Ragaire |
33/1(-50%) | (12) Ragaire 33/1, Hampered and never involved down the field in a maiden at Navan most recent; off a short-break; speed in pedigree; could do better now handicapping. Looked limited in four Irish runs (5f-7f) for Joseph O'Brien and was sold on for 3,500gns; handicap debut.. |

BEELZEBUB only just failed to back up his C&D success at Ffos Las having had the blindfold removed late, but Tony Carroll gives Billy Loughnane the leg up on this occasion, suggesting another bold bid is anticipated. The unexposed Elmfield makes her handicap bow and is worth noting, whilst others for the shortlist include Rianka, May Encounter and Beach Partee.

(8) (7/4 +22%)Spanish Rising |
7/4(+22%) | (8) Spanish Rising 7/4, Mistakes, hampered late, promising debut when fourth beaten 11l in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe latest; effective 2m1f, acts on good; showed minor promise on Flat in UK, more to come over hurdles for top yard. Second in a 1m2f Flat maiden at Ripon last year when trained by owner's son; well beaten in three Flat starts for current yard, but there was promise in his fourth of 15 on hurdling bow at Ballinrobe last time (2m2f, good); in the mix if building on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (11/4 -22%)Rosarian |
11/4(-22%) | (12) Rosarian 11/4, Improved for debut experience when second beaten 4l in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; effective 2m3f, acts on good; should come on for latest. Ran okay in an academy hurdle on testing ground at Naas in December, but better in a Kilbeggan maiden hurdle on good ground last month when taking the runner-up spot; entitled to improve on that as it came after a 221-day break and if she does she won't be far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (3/1 +54%)Johnny Rambo |
3/1(+54%) | (1) Johnny Rambo 3/1, Fell in a maiden hurdle at Cork latest just before race developed; effective 2m on good; form of bumper win had knocks but should be capable of better over hurdles. Outran 40-1 odds when a fine second of 17 on debut in a Clonmel maiden hurdle (2m1f, good) despite jumping badly right at second obstacle; proved that was no fluke when winning a 2m Kilbeggan bumper 11 days later; fell at the sixth back over hurdles at Cork last time; must carry a penalty for his bumper win.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (6/1 -9%)Really Truly |
6/1(-9%) | (11) Really Truly 6/1, Order Of St George filly; full-sister to Sky Grove, fair at 16f; related to a bumper and a hurdles winner for this yard; hood first time; trainer in form; likely type. Order Of St George filly; fifth foal; sister to winners Nitty Gritty (2m4f hurdle) and Sky Grove (2m hurdle), half-sister to bumper winner Lionnar; dam unraced sister to useful bumper/2m3f hurdle winner Level Neverending; hooded for debut but entitled to respect given the trainer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (6/1 +50%)Folk Warrior |
6/1(+50%) | (3) Folk Warrior 6/1, Travelled, too much to do having been denied a run multiple times, not knocked about beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan last time; effective 2m, acts on soft; may do better but may want a bit further ideally. Yet to trouble the judge in seven Flat runs; well beaten off 93 on his handicap hurdle debut at Kilbeggan last time (2m, good); others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (8/1 0%)I'm All In |
8/1(0%) | (5) I'm All In 8/1, Outclassed up in grade down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork most recent; effective 2m, acts on soft; with good yard but jumping a serious issue. Three starts in academy hurdles on softer ground than this; best run when in second place and unseating at the last at Cork on debut; on first run of the year, was tailed off at the same venue last time; trainer also runs Noble Rocco.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (28/1 -75%)Noble Rocco |
28/1(-75%) | (10) Noble Rocco 28/1, Mistakes, below form down the field in a maiden hurdle at Sligo most recent; can do better hurdling for top yard. One of two for trainer; well beaten in a bumper at Ballinrobe (2m1f, good); just slight improvement at Sligo when sent over hurdles (2m2f, good); others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (33/1 -65%)John Gun |
33/1(-65%) | (6) John Gun 33/1, 5,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Bathyrhon; dam poor from 6f to 8f; small yard has gone more than a year without a winner; up against it. Gelded son of the German-bred stallion Bathyrhon; first foal; dam French 1m winner, half-sister to German 1m Listed winner; market best guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (50/1 +0%)Green Grass |
50/1(+0%) | (4) Green Grass 50/1, Never involved at sharp track well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan only start; dam a winner at 6/7f; all to prove. Tailed off at Kilbeggan on debut at 66-1; unlikely.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (66/1 -32%)Faerie Tales |
66/1(-32%) | (9) Faerie Tales 66/1, Never travelled down the field in a handicap at Limerick most recent; showed very little on the Flat at up to 15f; plenty more needed to figure now hurdling. Has looked limited on the Flat, beating few rivals in four starts; tailed off at Limerick last time; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (100/1 +0%)Devine Genius |
100/1(+0%) | (2) Devine Genius 100/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Cork latest; effective 7f on Flat; in poor form in both codes. Modest Flat maiden was pulled up at 300-1 on his hurdling bow at Cork (2m2f, good); hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (100/1 +0%)Pinkarizon |
100/1(+0%) | (7) Pinkarizon 100/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Cork latest where green and hampered by loose horse; usually held up; effective 1m on Flat; major improvement needed. Is 0-8 on the Flat in Britain; pulled up in three of four starts over hurdles and in the other he was beaten 90l; impossible to fancy.. |

There was plenty of encouragement to be taken from Spanish Rising's fourth-placed hurdle bow over an extended 2m1f at Ballinrobe and this drop in distance is likely to suit. That said, ROSARIAN arrives on the back of a good second at Kilbeggan and she's entitled to build on that outing. Racecourse debutant Really Truly warrants a market check, while it's still early days for Johnny Rambo.

(13) (2/1 +80%)Oxford Circus |
2/1(+80%) | (13) Oxford Circus 2/1, Well below form down the field in a handicap at Limerick most recent; wide draw; off a short-break; effective 6-8f, acts on AW, poor on turf; plenty more needed, but worth a market check on first start for this yard. He has gone the wrong way on turf in Ireland this season but he did show clear promise on the AW at Dundalk early in the year, including finishing first past the post in a 6f maiden in February (disqualified on a technicality); he has joined a stable who have enjoyed considerable success with similar types and he's a fascinating contender, for all his draw could have been kinder.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (9/2 +25%)Spirit Of Breeze |
9/2(+25%) | (2) Spirit Of Breeze 9/2, Ran to form beaten 2l off this mark at Windsor last time; wide draw; effective 5-8f, acts on most; bit more needed. C\u0026D win last October off 2lb lower; had a wind operation prior to his seasonal return in June; two solid efforts this year and he's one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (7/1 -8%)Captive Beauty |
7/1(-8%) | (11) Captive Beauty 7/1, Stark improvement on second start for new yard beaten a head off a 2lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on AW; could go well again facing just a minor rise. Improved for the switch to handicaps when finishing a head second in a 7f event at Wolverhampton last month; that form doesn't look overly strong, however, and she has a 2lb higher mark to contend with.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/1 +7%)Elvetham |
7/1(+7%) | (4) Elvetham 7/1, Returned to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time; effective 6f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; worth another go at 7f. Three AW wins this year, the latest here (6f) nine days ago; only 3lb higher under a penalty (1lb ahead of the handicapper) and he has form over a mile so this trip should be fine; one to consider.. |

7/1(+13%) | (6) Midnight's Dream 7/1, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 7/8f, acts on good to firm and AW; consistent of late and could challenge. Four solid efforts this summer once fitted with a visor; should remain competitive.. |

15/2(+17%) | (9) Chelio 15/2, Returned to form of 2yo promise when second beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Goodwood latest; off a short-break; suited by 7/8f, acts on good to soft and AW; demands more back in an open handicap. Twice a runner-up from his six starts, most recently at Goodwood (7f, good to soft) ten weeks ago; he was beaten over 4l on that occasion though and a personal best is required.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (14/1 +44%)Francisco |
14/1(+44%) | (8) Francisco 14/1, Ran back closer to form beaten 4 1/2l in a handicap at Chepstow last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; back on last winning mark, but more needed. Does a lot wrong in his races (often misses the break and/or pulls too hard) but he has two 7f AW wins to his name, including off this mark over C\u0026D in April; others are more appealing this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (18/1 -50%)Quick Quasar |
18/1(-50%) | (5) Quick Quasar 18/1, Returned to form switched back to AW beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective 7f, acts on AW; remains 7lb above last winning mark. Improved for the switch to handicaps/fitting of cheekpieces this spring, second at Southwell before winning at Kempton four days later (both 7f); best run since when fourth of ten in a Class 5 at Wolverhampton two weeks ago (blinkered first time); respected back down into a Class 6.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (25/1 -39%)Blue Samuna |
25/1(-39%) | (10) Blue Samuna 25/1, Much below form down to 6f beaten 10l in a handicap at Newmarket (July) last time; probably effective 7/8f, acts on good to firm and AW; mark easing, but more needed. She didn't progress for Jane Chapple-Hyam and then finished down the field in a 6f handicap at Newmarket on her stable debut 13 days ago; drops in class and returns to a longer trip so not discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (28/1 -75%)My Dad Tom |
28/1(-75%) | (12) My Dad Tom 28/1, Eased off late when fourth beaten 10l in a handicap here latest; effective 6/7f, possibly better latter, acts on a sound surface; form is going the wrong way. 11-race maiden who hasn't matched his 2yo form this year; others look more persuasive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (33/1 -18%)Wind Summer |
33/1(-18%) | (7) Wind Summer 33/1, May not have stayed but similarly to previous handicap start ran too bad to be true well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton latest; returning from a break; effective 7/8f, acts on AW; largely consistent. Ran poorly at Wolverhampton in March but he ran some sound races on AW over the winter; returns from 136 days off with a visor back on for the first time since his debut.. |

CAPTIVE BEAUTY went desperately close on her handicap bow at Wolverhampton and with the likelihood of more to come, she can defy a 2lb rise in the handicap to go one place better. 6f course winner Elvetham is worth another crack back up in distance and Ffos Las scorer Lerwick makes plenty of appeal, given that Hope Regan takes 7lb off his back this time.

(1) (1/5 +33%)Serenetta |
1/5(+33%) | (1) Serenetta 1/5, Improved from debut with easy lead when winning a novice at Kempton by 1 1/2l last time; top course trainer; returning from long layoff; effective at 7f, acts on good to soft and AW; quite nice type, good attitude, may progress again. Confirmed the promise of her November debut (good to soft) when taking Kempton novice (also 7f, AW) one month later; half-sister to connections' Group 1 winners Bluestocking and Qirat whose trainer hoped could progress into a Pattern performer in a spring stable tour; has been found a cracking opportunity to start out on that journey.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (10/3 -11%)Reformation |
10/3(-11%) | (2) Reformation 10/3, Sold for 130,000 guineas as a yearling; gelding by high-class sprinter No Nay Never; half-brother to Maybe Not, very useful at 1m; dam smart miler Considered Opinion; probably effective 7f; very interesting if money arrives. 130,000gns yearling; already-gelded son of No Nay Never; half-brother to winners Maybe Not (7f-1m including AW; RPR 95) and Glencalvie (1m including AW; 78); dam 7f/8.6f AW winner (91), half-sister to smart winners English Oak (7f/1m) and Forest Of Dean (1m2f Group 3); faces just one rival on his introduction and he's in good hands; market should prove telling.. |

SERENETTA has a long way to go before living up to her pedigree, being a half-sister to Group 1 winners Bluestocking and Qirat, but Ralph Beckett's filly has already shown a fair amount of promise. Third at Newmarket on her debut, she got off the mark at Kempton next time and the experience already gained gives her the edge over newcomer Reformation, who does come from a decent family.

(5) (13/8 +41%)Colourband |
13/8(+41%) | (5) Colourband 13/8, Ran to form beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark at Ayr last time; trainer in form; tongue-tie first time; effective 8-10f, acts on soft, good and AW; another good run likely. 1m2f novice winner in April; rather disappointing afterwards but he was then well backed last time at Ayr (1m2f) and beat all bar an Ed Walker improver; 2lb higher with a tongue-tie added and firmly enters the reckoning; should be fine back at 1m.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (9/2 +10%)Magical Merlot |
9/2(+10%) | (7) Magical Merlot 9/2, Ran to form up to 9f when 5 1/2l third in a handicap at Lingfield most recent run; effective 1m, middle-distance bred, acts on good, fast ground and AW; more to come yet, chance here. 1m novice winner at two and then gelded; slow starts weren't helping matters this season but raced in touch last time at Lingfield (1m1f) and they all bumped into an improver; could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (6/1 -33%)Too Hot To Tango |
6/1(-33%) | (8) Too Hot To Tango 6/1, Disappointing effort fourth beaten 5l off 73 last time, same mark here; suited by 8-10f, acts on a sound surface and AW; could bounce back as looked progressive. Came good at 11th attempt from off the pace over C\u0026D in June (3lb lower) and the steady pace wasn't beneficial when last of the four at Epsom; consistent in the main.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (13/2 -8%)Knights Gold |
13/2(-8%) | (4) Knights Gold 13/2, Ran to form beaten 6l in a handicap at Chester last time; in good form prior; effective 7f/1m, acts on any; just below last winning mark, can go well. Four-time turf winner; cheekpieces applied for final three races and after two thirds (1m) he got no luck in running at Chester; now having first run for Tom Ward and wouldn't rule out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/1 +30%)Great Chieftain |
7/1(+30%) | (3) Great Chieftain 7/1, Found little, below form beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; suited by 8/9f, acts on sound surface; mark easing but needs more. Won two in a row last May (1m, good) and is 7lb below his last winning mark; however, hasn't produced an effort of note since returning to Britain after a stint at Meydan.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (15/2 +12%)Signcastle City |
15/2(+12%) | (6) Signcastle City 15/2, Late gains up to 8f when fourth beaten 9l in a handicap at Newbury latest; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface and AW; respected here off a competitive mark. A suspicion that 7f might suit him best but after starting slowly he did keep on over 1m at Newbury last time, albeit some 9l off the winner; the handicapper knows all about him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/1 +8%)Clouds Hill |
11/1(+8%) | (2) Clouds Hill 11/1, Again below form well beaten in a handicap at Ascot latest; effective 8-10f, acts on sound surface; mark easing, but bounce back needed. The season started well but this front-runner has dropped away tamely in his last three races, albeit strong handicaps; this might not be so challenging and could go well if getting any freedom up front.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (20/1 -208%)Mia Sunshine |
20/1(-208%) | (1) Mia Sunshine 20/1, Rise in grade too much up to 10f beaten in Grand Prix de Fontainebleau (Listed) last time; returning from long layoff; effective 1m with cut; undergone a wind op, likely to need this. 2-5 in France, the wins coming at 1m on slow ground; later sold for 130,000euros and since had wind surgery; Billy Loughnane booked but the ground has to be a worry.. |

Dropping to a mile might be of real benefit to COLOURBAND, who cruised into the lead over 1m2f at Ayr before weakening inside the final furlong. He's preferred to Mia Sunshine, who might be worth more than a cursory glance with Billy Loughnane booked after 264 days off the track. Great Chieftain drops in class and must also enter calculations.

(1) (13/8 +41%)Churchwarden |
13/8(+41%) | (1) Churchwarden 13/8, Improved in first time blinkers landing a handicap by 10l off a 48lb lower mark here last time; effective 2 1/2m, acts on yielding; fair mark on maiden form, big player if building on recent Flat revival. Won a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle in 2024 for John McConnell; came back to form in first-time blinkers to easily win on the Flat here over 1m4f last time; has to be respected back hurdling assuming the blinkers have the desired effect again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (2/1 -14%)Rightfolksplease |
2/1(-14%) | (5) Rightfolksplease 2/1, Improved back over fences landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Wexford last time; effective 2m, suited by sound surface; back in form after lay off and well treated if turned out quickly, goes well at Wexford. Downpatrick hurdle winner in 2024 for Paul Flynn; came back from a long absence for this yard with a close second over hurdles at Wexford; got off the mark over fences since at the same track; should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (3/1 -20%)Dairy Force |
3/1(-20%) | (3) Dairy Force 3/1, Not best placed to challenge comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Galway last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on yielding and good; form in and out of late but this much easier. Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner two years ago for former yard; has been consistent in defeat lately for this stable at around this trip and should run well again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (9/2 +59%)Claude |
9/2(+59%) | (4) Claude 9/2, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent; effective 2m on good; form of debut win had knocks and inconsistent since. Maiden hurdle winner for Joseph O'Brien last year; similar runs in defeat at Killarney and Galway lately so has to find more even dropped 2lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (20/1 +0%)Kome Dans Un Reve |
20/1(+0%) | (6) Kome Dans Un Reve 20/1, Never threatened on handicap debut down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; usually held up; off a short-break; yet to show any measurable form. Hints of ability in maidens but has to improve plenty from handicap debut at Wexford last time when beaten 24l.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (40/1 -21%)Palace Boy |
40/1(-21%) | (2) Palace Boy 40/1, Needed run down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recent; effective 2m; formerly useful dual purpose performer, has dropped in weights but needs to prove ability remains after lay off. One-time useful dual-purpose sort when trained in UK; however, has been poor on his last three runs (two over hurdles) and others preferred.. |

Recent Wexford winner RIGHTFOLKSPLEASE has been rejuvenated by a change of scenery and he looks nicely treated reverting to the smaller obstacles. A 4lb higher mark is unlikely to prevent another bold bid from Declan Queally's inmate and a double may beckon. Dairy Force finished a respectable fifth at the Galway Festival, but a bigger threat may emerge from last month's easy Flat winner Churchwarden.

(6) (2/1 +27%)Zaltalla |
2/1(+27%) | (6) Zaltalla 2/1, Ran to form 4l third in a classified race here most recent run; suited by 7/8f, probably acts on any; competitive at this level and can go well again. Poor strike-rate but he performed with credit in two classified events here (1m, AW and 7f, good to firm) for this yard last month; should give his running again but not obviously crying out for the drop to 6f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (3/1 +63%)My Mate Mackley |
3/1(+63%) | (7) My Mate Mackley 3/1, Returned to form back at 6f when second beaten 3/4l in a handicap at Chepstow latest; effective 5/6f, acts with some cut, on good and AW; chance at this grade if building on latest. Dead-heated at Chepstow (5f, good to soft) in May; held his form since and Sunday's second at Chepstow (6f, good to firm) was another solid effort.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/3 +72%)Roman Spring |
10/3(+72%) | (5) Roman Spring 10/3, Below form again beaten 5l in a classified race here last time; suited by 5/6f, acts on most; inconsistent, needs more. Won three times in the second half of 2025, including here (5f); mixed bag in 2026 but he is capable at this level and shouldn't be discounted; stable also run Real Gold.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (11/2 -120%)Pure Passion |
11/2(-120%) | (1) Pure Passion 11/2, Returned to form when winning a classified race at Yarmouth by 3/4l last time; effective 5f, acts on good to firm and AW; small, but good attitude and can go well again here now got her head in-front. Promise in maiden/novice company in January; duly stepped forward when winning a 5f classified event at Yarmouth last week; should be fine over the extra furlong but she does have to overcome a 6lb penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (9/1 -38%)Ridger |
9/1(-38%) | (9) Ridger 9/1, Poor again down the field in a maiden at Southwell most recent; sire champion sprinter, dam effective around 8.5-10f; return to 6f could suit stepping into this grade. Uncompetitive in three maiden runs this summer (6f, good to firm and 7f, AW); hard to recommend on bare form but he's bred to be smart and it would be no surprise to see marked improvement now dropped to this level; hood discarded this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (9/1 +44%)Porfin |
9/1(+44%) | (4) Porfin 9/1, Bit below form beaten 4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 6/7f, acts on any; needs more than of late. C\u0026D win in January; not in the same form in three runs since April and minor money perhaps his best hope.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (22/1 -83%)Real Gold |
22/1(-83%) | (8) Real Gold 22/1, Below form again beaten 10l in a handicap at Epsom last time; cheekpieces first time; effective at 6f, acts on AW; generally consistent over this trip. 0-12; bits of form on AW earlier in the year but two runs last month were disappointing; revival could be forthcoming now back at 6f and tackling her first classified event; cheekpieces given a go.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (50/1 -52%)Global Effort |
50/1(-52%) | (3) Global Effort 50/1, Below form beaten 8 1/2l in a classified race at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 5/6f, acts on sound surface and AW; all to prove at present. Not at his best so far this year; returns from five months off with a point to prove.. |

Chloe Lyons got a good tune out of Magna Grecia filly PURE PASSION when landing a similar event at Yarmouth and she is very much worth keeping onside, especially at this level. The relatively consistent My Mate Mackley has to enter calculations in a race of this nature, whilst Zaltalla, Ridger and C&D runner-up Dr Ali all have claims too.

(5) (4/9 +39%)Siena Storm |
4/9(+39%) | (5) Siena Storm 4/9, Green early, finished well when penny dropped, promising effort 2l fourth in a maiden at Goodwood first-time out; effective 7f, bred to get 10f, acts on good to firm; debut form looks good, likely improver up in trip. 600,000euros breeze-up buy who did best of those coming from off the pace when fourth of 13 at Goodwood (7f, good to firm; Clarity fifth, Orchard Hatches eighth) on her introduction a fortnight ago; holds Pattern-race entries and connections took this with a future Group 2 winner in 2024; a mile will suit on breeding and she's probably the one to beat.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (4/1 -14%)Indian Lights |
4/1(-14%) | (3) Indian Lights 4/1, Outpaced, showed minor promise 3l fourth in a maiden at Newmarket (July) first-time out; sire sprinter, bit more stamina on dam's side; should improve a little for initial experience. Showed signs of inexperience before finishing fourth of ten at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on her debut four weeks ago; that initial effort already gives her solid claims and runner-up Flooding (declared for 6:04 on this card) may give the form a boost; pedigree suggests this new trip may suit and she's a player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (9/2 -29%)Clarity |
9/2(-29%) | (2) Clarity 9/2, Ran to form up in trip, saw it out well beaten 4l in a maiden at Goodwood last time; top course jockey; effective over 6/7f, acts on AW and good to firm; latest form looks good, could progress again. Similar form when beaten around 4l in Kempton novice (6f, AW) last month and valuable Goodwood maiden (7f, good to firm; Siena Storm 2l ahead, Orchard Hatches behind) three weeks later; goes up in trip again and she's probably still getting the hang of things; can be expected to do better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (14/1 +44%)Orchard Hatches |
14/1(+44%) | (4) Orchard Hatches 14/1, Keen, outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test beaten 7 1/4l in a maiden at Goodwood on debut; trainer in form; bred for middle distances; longer trip a plus but may need further and more time. 125-1 when she did quite a bit wrong before finshing eighth of 13 at Goodwood (7f, good to firm; Siena Storm fourth, Clarity fifth) a fortnight ago; looks sure to prove better than that at some point, but might be one for further down the line.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (22/1 0%)Caelan's Rose |
22/1(0%) | (1) Caelan's Rose 22/1, Filly by top-class middle-distance performer Ulysses; half-sister to Jewel In My Crown, smart at 1m2f; dam high-class middle-distance performer Rosa Grace; looks stable second string on jockey bookings. By Ulysses; sister to 9.4f/1m4f winner Lia Rose (including AW/Sweden; RPR 76), half-sister to four winners including Jewel In My Crown (1m-1m3f including AW; 101), Ruby Wedding (1m3f; 87) and Rosa Gold (1m-1m2f; 82); dam 7f 2yo/1m2f Listed winner (107); looks the yard second string on jockey bookings but still requires a market check on her introduction.. |

Indian Lights ran with credit on her first start when fourth at Newmarket, despite showing signs of greenness, and the booking of Ben Coen catches the eye. However, it is difficult to ignore the claims of SIENA STORM. Ed Walker's filly made a very promising start when fourth in a maiden at Glorious Goodwood, finishing ahead of Clarity (fifth) and Orchard Hatches (eighth), and she may be a tough nut to crack on that evidence.

(4) (4/6 +0%)Waterford Castle |
4/6(+0%) | (4) Waterford Castle 4/6, Ran to form tried in blinkers despite not best of runs 2 1/2l third in a handicap at Goodwood most recent run; effective 7-10f, acts on a sound surface; consistent and this looks a good opportunity. Had plenty of chances now (0-10) but he hasn't always enjoyed the best of luck in showing useful form, as was again the case when third in a competitive 1m3f handicap at Glorious Goodwood (first-time blinkers); he's the standout danger to the regally-bred newcomer Partying.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/8 +8%)Partying |
11/8(+8%) | (5) Partying 11/8, 4,400,000gns Frankel filly; dam a Group 2 winner, best at 1m; cost a bomb but clearly not been straightforward to be making debut this late; market will tell all. Frankel filly who cost 4,400,000gns as a yearling; second foal out of a 7f/1m winner (RPR 116), closely related to 1m2f winner Gamrai; bred in accordance with her purchase price and the betting should be highly revealing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/1 -10%)Thatcham |
11/1(-10%) | (3) Thatcham 11/1, Similar run as to debut effort beaten 5l in a maiden at Southwell last time; returning from long layoff; bred to get 8-10f; llikely to need this. Beaten 17l behind none other than Bow Echo on his debut in August and the following month beat one home at Southwell (1m), though did get closer; could be one for handicaps.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (28/1 +58%)Sergei Breeze |
28/1(+58%) | (2) Sergei Breeze 28/1, Much better than when poor on debut when fourth beaten 12l in a maiden here latest; trainer in form; effective 10f on sound surface; type to do better when handicapping and needs more time. Probably achieved little when a remote fourth over C\u0026D last month (300-1).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (80/1 -21%)Winston's Oath |
80/1(-21%) | (1) Winston's Oath 80/1, Never in it from off the pace when fourth beaten 21l in a novice at Newmarket (July) latest; type to do better when handicapping. Modest form under National Hunt rules and pretty much tailed off in two 7f novice races.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (80/1 +0%)Sax Avoidance |
80/1(+0%) | (6) Sax Avoidance 80/1, Poor debut in a hood well beaten in a novice at Nottingham only start; major improvement needed. 40-1 when completely tailed off at Nottingham last month (1m2f).. |

Waterford Castle has undoubted ability and won't be far away, but he's had opportunities similar to this previously and hasn't been able to take advantage. With that in mind, it might be wiser to side with the newcomer PARTYING. She fetched an eyewatering 4,400,000gns as a yearling and should be able to make an immediate impact. Thatcham is also noted.

2/1(+27%) | (2) Mr Master Mac 2/1, Travelled, ran to form on handicap debut just outstayed late when second beaten 4l in a handicap hurdle at Galway latest; effective 2m2f, gets sharp 3m, acts on yielding and good; maiden form had knocks but may have more to offer. Sligo bumper winner last year took a Downpatrick maiden hurdle over 2m3f in May; improved from his handicap debut at the same track when runner-up over 3m at Galway last time; can run well again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (5/2 +0%)Early Dawning |
5/2(+0%) | (1) Early Dawning 5/2, Very promising effort when winning a maiden hurdle at Killarney by 1 1/4l last time; trainer in form; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on soft and good; debut bumper form franked at Graded level over hurdles, should progress over hurdles for top yard. Was third in a valuable Fairyhouse restricted bumper on debut last year; lesser bumper run in January; belied inexperience to win on hurdles debut at Killarney over this trip; there should be more to come and is a big player.. |

Got off the mark when winning a 2m Limerick maiden hurdle in May and was a solid second in a Ballinrobe novice last time over 2m1f; stayed this trip in France so has to be considered for a top local yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (13/2 -8%)Master Haku |
13/2(-8%) | (4) Master Haku 13/2, Improved needed every yard down in trip when winning a novice hurdle at Market Rasen by 1/2l last time; effective at 2-2 1/2m, acts on most ground; may get bit further in time and progressing. Won a 2m Kilbeggan maiden hurdle and bounced back from two lesser runs over further to take a Market Rasen novice over this trip; this is more competitive but has a chance.. |

Was a wide-margin winner of a Limerick maiden hurdle over this trip but was poor in a Galway novice since so has to rebound.. |

10/1(-25%) | (6) Holy Joe 10/1, Improved again up in trip to defy penalty, aided by main market rival going wrong when winning a novice hurdle at Perth by 3 1/4l last time; effective 2m-2m4f; progressive. Second runner for yard; won a 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle and added a Perth novice over 2m4f since; this is more competitive but has to be considered.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (16/1 +36%)Butch Coolidge |
16/1(+36%) | (7) Butch Coolidge 16/1, Yard won this last year; outclassed comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Downpatrick last time; in good form prior; effective 2m-2m5f; may have more to offer but out of depth here. Won a maiden hurdle over 2m6f here in May; a decent run in a Downpatrick novice since but was beaten 32l there last time; has a lot to do in this company on these terms.. |

Although Holy Joe completed a double at Perth last month, he will need to brush up his jumping in this tougher affair. Little separates him and stablemate Master Haku if judged by the ratings, with the latter also worthy of consideration after his latest victory at Market Rasen. However, the pair may have their work cut out against Galway Festival runner-up MR MASTER MAC, who shouldn't be inconvenienced by a drop back in distance.

(3) (11/8 +31%)Dove Tale |
11/8(+31%) | (3) Dove Tale 11/8, Improved on debut effort stepped up to 11f 7 1/2l third in a novice at Kempton most recent run; hood first time; bred for middle distances; can go well again and chance to open account. Unfancied for her sole 2yo run (7f); sent off at 11-1 for last week's return to action at Kempton (1m3f) where she was a well-beaten third; can do better and the addition of a hood can help.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/4 +25%)Shangri La |
9/4(+25%) | (8) Shangri La 9/4, Returned to best form stepped up in trip beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 8f at 2yo, stays at least 12f, acts on soft, good and AW; can go well again here. Promise as a 2yo and again when in midfield on her handicap debut at Wolverhampton (1m4f) last month; likely to be in the thick of it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (4/1 -60%)Neswick |
4/1(-60%) | (4) Neswick 4/1, Very promising third beaten 3/4l in a maiden here debut; returning from a break; effective 10f, acts on AW; further improvement likely and can go close again. 28-1 for her C\u0026D debut in April but she finished with a flourish to take third; others have achieved more but she is unexposed and could leave that initial run well behind; yard in form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (11/2 +0%)Walking On Stars |
11/2(+0%) | (9) Walking On Stars 11/2, Improved on debut up in trip when fourth beaten 3 1/2l in a maiden at Wolverhampton latest; effective 9.5f, acts on AW; further improvement likely over middle distances now. Shaped nicely on her Southwell debut (7f) last month and took a step forward when fourth of eight at Wolverhampton (9.5f) one week later; still capable of better and she's more appealing than many.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (11/1 +8%)Blue Hill |
11/1(+8%) | (1) Blue Hill 11/1, Below debut form stepped up to 11f when fourth beaten 12l in a novice at Kempton latest; out of Derby-winning sire, dam effective 1m2f; could improve over 10f, but needs more. She has shown some promise in her two runs (1m, good to firm and 1m3f, AW) this summer but she will need to produce plenty more to take this.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (33/1 -50%)Oklahoma Dream |
33/1(-50%) | (5) Oklahoma Dream 33/1, Built on debut effort up to 10f comfortably held in a novice at Salisbury last time; off a short-break; US-bred, from a family of high-class middle-distance performers; more improvement needed. Modest form in two runs 199 days apart; bred to do better at some point but that progress may come when handicapping.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (40/1 +20%)Protectrix |
40/1(+20%) | (7) Protectrix 40/1, Poor well beaten in a maiden at Southwell only start; trainer in form; sire high-class 6-10f, dam effective around 1m; plenty of improvement needed up in trip on second start. 50-1 and finished well beaten on her debut at Southwell (7f) three weeks ago; new trip not enough to tempt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (66/1 -32%)Paraone |
66/1(-32%) | (6) Paraone 66/1, Raven's Pass filly; half-sister to five winners, including Paloma Ohe, smart 6.5/7f, and Expresso James, useful 7-12f; dam effective 11.5f; looks an unlikely winner on debut. Eighth foal; half-sister to five winners including Paloma Ohe (German 6.5f/7f including 2yo Listed; RPR 94), Expresso James (French 7f-1m4f including AW) and Panjo (German 7.5f-1m1f); dam Listed-placed 11.5f winner (89), sister to 6f Group 2 winner Pomellato; stable not known for winning newcomers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (80/1 -21%)Champagne Beau |
80/1(-21%) | (2) Champagne Beau 80/1, Improved on debut effort, but still well beaten in a novice at Windsor latest; sire and dam both effective over middle distances; step up in trip to suit, but major improvement still needed. Big prices and well beaten in two 1m Windsor novices this summer; opposable.. |

NESWICK went under the radar when beaten less than a length into third over C&D on her debut, but punters will have taken note of that performance and she gets a confident vote here. Shangri La has proven consistent in her career so far and is expected to be thereabouts again, but so might Dove Tale if a first-time hood can work the oracle after being too keen when third at Kempton.

(2) (6/4 +73%)Green Sky |
6/4(+73%) | (2) Green Sky 6/4, Improved again up in trip landing a handicap by 4l off a 8lb lower mark at Newbury last time; top course jockey; effective 10-13f, acts on a sound surface and AW; more to come from this bang in-form mare. Rampant since joining Rod Millman and she was 7lb well in when completing a July hat-trick at Newbury (13.5f, good to firm) four weeks ago; runs off her revised rating this time but this drop back in trip should be no bother and she needs to be taken very seriously.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/4 -10%)Counter Intuitive |
11/4(-10%) | (5) Counter Intuitive 11/4, Improved taking advantage of lenient opening mark landing a handicap by 2l off a 4lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) last time; effective 10-12f, acts on good; well bred and should improve again, still looks ahead of mark. Unexposed filly who won Thirsk novice (good) in June and made a winning handicap debut at Newmarket (also 1m4f, good to firm) one month later; looked better the further she went last time and a 4lb rise shouldn't stop her being very competitive in the hat-trick bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (4/1 -14%)Ruby Wedding |
4/1(-14%) | (6) Ruby Wedding 4/1, Scored by a nose off a 6lb lower mark at Hamilton penultimate start; improved again up in trip on AW debut last time, 3lb higher here; effective 1m-12f, acts on good to firm and AW; more to come from this progressive filly. In-form filly who scraped home at Hamilton (1m3f, good to firm) in June before going fairly close at Newcastle (12.5f, AW) one month later; goes up in grade again but she's getting better and needs respecting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (13/2 -44%)Liveinthelight |
13/2(-44%) | (7) Liveinthelight 13/2, Improved again showing willing attitude landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Leicester last time; effective 10-12f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; progressive in small fields, mark creeping up but should remain competitive. Prominent racer who is only a neck away from being on a five-timer, with two wins at Ffos Las supplemented by success at Leicester (1m4f, good to firm) three weeks ago; those wins came in small fields and this is a hike in grade but she's still a player; one of two for a yard that's ticking along nicely.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (15/2 -50%)Rossa Raheen |
15/2(-50%) | (8) Rossa Raheen 15/2, Ran to best up in trip showing willing attitude landing a handicap by a length off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 1m-12f on sound surface; only 2lb higher than recent win but this looks much stronger contest. Bar a soft-ground blip she's been in good form since switched to handicaps and she made the breakthrough over C\u0026D (good to firm) 19 days ago; like stablemate Liveinthelight she goes up in grade but similarly has her best days ahead of her and warrants consideration.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (16/1 +20%)Gloryous |
16/1(+20%) | (4) Gloryous 16/1, Outpaced, ran to form 10l third in a handicap here most recent run; trainer in form; suited by 10f, acts on sound surface; dropping back towards workable mark, threat if stamina holds up. Tends to lead; won twice last summer and she also went close here (again 1m2f, good) in October; yet to match latter form in two starts this term and now tries a new trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (18/1 -13%)Percy's Daydream |
18/1(-13%) | (3) Percy's Daydream 18/1, Scored by 4l off a 5lb lower mark at Beverley in June; blocked on inside and never got a run, allowed to coast home last time, 2lb lower here; effective 10-12f, acts on a sound surface; progressive filly probably flattered by Listed form but still looks on workable mark. Steadily progressive filly who made the running when taking 1m2f handicaps (good to firm) at Doncaster and Beverley this year; didn't get the breaks at Pontefract last time and this return to 1m4f is no reason to rule her out.. |

A very competitive event on paper, with a whole host of these boasting strong credentials. Green Sky has Oisin Murphy aboard again after completing a quickfire hat-trick at Newbury last month and she is entitled to be in the mix, despite an 8lb rise. Liveinthelight made it three wins from four outings in handicap company at Leicester and has to enter calculations, but COUNTER INTUITIVE may have the most improvement to come. Ed Walker's filly has relished stepping up to 1m4f and can handle a 4lb rise from her handicap debut success at Newmarket.

(7) (10/3 +63%)Law Court |
10/3(+63%) | (7) Law Court 10/3, Ran to form when ninth beaten 4l off 87 last time, same mark here; effective 7-9f, acts on good, fast ground and AW; step up to 10f a likely plus. Progressed well this year and was doing all his best work late when mid-division in a big field at Glorious Goodwood (1m); stays 1m1f and he'll probably stay this far; has more to offer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/2 +65%)City Of Poets |
7/2(+65%) | (3) City Of Poets 7/2, Bit below best tenth beaten 7l off 92 last time, same mark here; trainer in form; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; worth a shot at 10f. Both handicap wins have come by narrow margins at Class 3 level and it was a deep Class 2 in which he made no impact last time at Sandown; he's not handicapped out of it if he stays this longer distance (unraced beyond 8.6f).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/2 +56%)Auld Toon Loon |
7/2(+56%) | (1) Auld Toon Loon 7/2, Ran to form beaten 7l in a handicap at York last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 10-12f, acts on a sound surface; good chance in less competitive race, former C&D winner. Close third over C\u0026D in May since when he's been up against it in Class 2s won by a Group horse and then the John Smith's Cup, in which he ran perfectly well for a 66-1 chance; very capable of a big show, though the cheekpieces are new and so too is Donagh Murphy claiming 7lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (4/1 -60%)A Major Payne |
4/1(-60%) | (6) A Major Payne 4/1, Picked up well, ran to best landing a handicap by 3 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; effective 7-10f, acts on any; in fine form but new mark demands more again. This is a classier race than he's accustomed to but he's been in fine form since returning from a break and it was comfortable over C\u0026D a month ago; 6lb rise demands another career best but couldn't put it past him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (10/1 -100%)Bold Impact |
10/1(-100%) | (8) Bold Impact 10/1, Picked up well from off the pace, ran to best landing a handicap by a length off a 5lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; effective 6f-1m, acts on soft and good to firm; could have more to offer at 10f. Gina Mangan picked up a 12-day ban when this 4yo was given a lot to do at Ffos Las and he then won by a length under Oisin Murphy here over 1m; has never raced beyond that trip but gives the impression he'll stay this far; up in class off a 5lb higher mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (10/1 -11%)Box To Box |
10/1(-11%) | (4) Box To Box 10/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Chester last time; returning from long layoff; enjoys making it; effective 10f, acts on soft, good and AW; back in form, goes well at Chester. Four of his six wins have been at Chester where he nearly won again when last seen 11 months ago; trip/ground fine and on a fair mark, but market confidence would be welcomed after so long out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/1 -83%)Parlando |
11/1(-83%) | (5) Parlando 11/1, Returned to form down in trip benefitting from pace collapse landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Chester last time; suited by 8-12f, acts on sound surface, largely below form with give; remains well treated on best form but unreliable. Had gone badly off the boil but back in a Class 4 he came from behind to score narrowly at Chester (extended 1m2f); if he's turned a corner then likely to have some say off 3lb higher.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (12/1 -20%)King's Code |
12/1(-20%) | (2) King's Code 12/1, Ran about to form up in class eighth beaten 4l off 95 last time, same mark here; effective 10-12f, acts on good and AW; still competitively weighted on old form, but more needed at this level now. Five turf wins but has done most of his winning on the AW; surprising to see blinkers back on having won in a visor at Chester last month and then beaten only 4l in a Class 2 handicap at Goodwood; if that doesn't backfire then has possibilities.. |

A MAJOR PAYNE took his form to a new level with a resounding C&D triumph last month and might still have what it takes to defy a rise in class and a 6lb hike in the handicap. Bold Impact looked ready for another step up in trip when winning over a mile here last time, so is respected along with Parlando and the class-dropping City Of Poets.

(6) (4/1 +0%)Maxicourt |
4/1(+0%) | (6) Maxicourt 4/1, Outpaced, unsuited by way race developed well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; effective 2m, acts on yielding, good; fair mark on maiden form, could build on latest couple. Maiden was a close third at Cork last month over 2m1f but was below that level since over the same C\u0026D; has to rebound back up in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (5/1 +29%)Princess Felicia |
5/1(+29%) | (14) Princess Felicia 5/1, Travelled, improved on rules return just tiring late behind race fit rivals having done plenty early 5l third in a handicap hurdle at Clonmel most recent run; returning from long layoff; effective 2 1/2m; inconsistent, threat on latest and has run well fresh. Third in a Clonmel handicap over this trip on debut for this yard last October; has a shout if she can repeat that after a break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(15) (11/2 +73%)The Cobblers Wife |
11/2(+73%) | (15) The Cobblers Wife 11/2, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown latest where went wrong; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2m; yet to show anything of note. Was beaten 20l over C\u0026D in April but pulled-up next time at Punchestown; has to find improvement for a new yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (7/1 +42%)Inchidaly Copper |
7/1(+42%) | (5) Inchidaly Copper 7/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Galway latest; effective 2 3/4-3m, acts on good; stiff mark over fences but hurdles one looks workable, not ruled out. One of his three chase wins came here; has also claimed two hurdle races plus was runner-up in this race last year off 6lb lower; pulled-up over fences at Galway last time but can bounce back over hurdles.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/1 +50%)Double Power |
7/1(+50%) | (1) Double Power 7/1, Every chance, below form down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; effective 2m4f, acts on yielding; hasn't shown much yet, bit to prove. Maiden ran well enough on second handicap start at Wexford last time but was still beaten 16l; needs a fair bit more off 2lb lower.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(17) (8/1 +43%)Lanzhou |
8/1(+43%) | (17) Lanzhou 8/1, Outpaced, continued in poor form down the field in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan most recent; off a short-break; effective at 3m in points; major improvement needed. First reserve; some promise in points but hasn't progressed in five maiden hurdles; can do better for a local yard on handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (8/1 -60%)The Ducks Walk |
8/1(-60%) | (11) The Ducks Walk 8/1, Outpaced, improved up in trip when fourth beaten 7l in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; off a short-break; effective 3m; more to come over staying trips but a danger if getting stiff test here. Point winner on soft ground ran his best race over hurdles when fourth over 3m at Kilbeggan last time; this shorter trip might not suit as well but still one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (8/1 -33%)Diamond Secret |
8/1(-33%) | (3) Diamond Secret 8/1, Refused in a handicap hurdle at Killarney latest; blinkers first time; effective at 2m4f with cut; more of a chance now stepped up in trip in handicaps. Best handicap run came when beaten only 9l at Kilbeggan over 15.5f; carried out early at Killarney since; blinkers added today and should stay this trip; a player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(16) (14/1 +0%)Youknowme |
14/1(+0%) | (16) Youknowme 14/1, Continued in poor form well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Killarney latest; maiden looking exposed; hard to fancy. Not a bad run at Kilbeggan over 3m but has to rebound from a poor effort over this trip at Killarney.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (14/1 -75%)Nashville Notions |
14/1(-75%) | (7) Nashville Notions 14/1, Outstayed late having done plenty early beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; effective 2-2 1/2m; needs this drop back in trip and should go well. Won a Sligo maiden hurdle last summer but has been mostly below that level since; better last time at Wexford in first-time cheekpieces over 3m; this trip suits better and could go well with the headgear retained.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (16/1 +20%)Talas Kera |
16/1(+20%) | (13) Talas Kera 16/1, Didn't find much after bad error down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; effective 2-3m, acts on good; inconsistent in short career but well treated on winter form. Has shown a hint of ability in bumpers and over hurdles but was beaten a long way in a Wexford handicap last time so others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (18/1 +10%)Taketwotoone |
18/1(+10%) | (8) Taketwotoone 18/1, Ran to form, poorly placed in race dominated from front comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time; usually held up; effective 2m, acts on heavy; could build on latest if ridden slightly more positively. Ran her best race over hurdles when fourth in heavy ground here in 2025; not a bad run at Cork last time over 2m1f; a squeak if staying this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (22/1 -22%)Pure Logic |
22/1(-22%) | (2) Pure Logic 22/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter latest where never jumped or travelled; effective at 2m1f, acts on good; bit more needed to get off the mark. Maiden showed promise in four bumpers in 2024 and in two maiden hurdles last year; hit and miss this year and has to rebound from two poor runs.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (28/1 -100%)Arctic Piper |
28/1(-100%) | (4) Arctic Piper 28/1, Fell in a handicap chase at Wexford latest; top course trainer; effective 2m, acts on heavy, good; exposed maiden over hurdles, all to prove. Was regressive over hurdles over the winter in testing ground; fell on stable/chasing debut last time; others make more appeal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (33/1 -65%)Miss Guiry |
33/1(-65%) | (10) Miss Guiry 33/1, Never involved throughout down the field in a maiden hurdle at Thurles most recent; returning from long layoff; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m on good; debut form franked in bumpers but didn't progress, plenty to prove. Third in a Cork bumper on debut last year but hasn't built on that over hurdles; is still worth a market check on handicap debut after a break with a tongue-tie added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (100/1 -52%)Keep The Head |
100/1(-52%) | (12) Keep The Head 100/1, May not have stayed down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; yet to show anything in bumpers or over hurdles. Mild promise in bumpers but not much over hurdles and isn't easy to make a case for her.. |

Having posted his best effort under Rules to date, Kilbeggan fourth The Ducks Walk must enter calculations. That said, the eight-year-old would make more appeal over further, which may leave the door open for PRINCESS FELICIA. David Kelly's mare posted a decent third on her stable/seasonal debut last October and a similar performance on her return may prove sufficient. The up-in-distance Maxicourt is also of interest.

(1) (11/4 -10%)South West |
11/4(-10%) | (1) South West 11/4, Improved again to open account when winning a novice at Catterick by 4 1/2l last time; trainer in form; effective 5/6f, acts on good to firm; chance to follow up despite new mark given ease of latest. Off the mark at the fourth attempt with an easy win in a novice at Catterick (5f, good to firm) last month; this is tougher off revised mark on nursery debut but he has a progressive profile and is bred to be useful; key player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (7/2 +61%)Beautiful Effort |
7/2(+61%) | (5) Beautiful Effort 7/2, Produced a career-best beaten 6l in a novice at Kempton last time; didn't fully see out 6f last time, acts on AW; could find optimum trip over the minimal distance now. Tailed off in her first two starts before a well-held fifth of nine in a novice at Kempton (6f, AW) last month; needs improvement now switched to a nursery but she showed plenty of speed last time and shaped as though this drop to 5f could suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (11/2 +45%)Stoney Wood |
11/2(+45%) | (7) Stoney Wood 11/2, Took a step forward beaten 4l in a novice at Southwell last time; effective 6f, acts on AW; can do better still now handicapping, but needs a bit more. Didn't show much in his first two starts but he shaped with promise when fifth of 12 in a Southwell novice (6f, AW) last month; half-brother to a 5f Listed winner and he's an interesting contender dropped in trip on nursery debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (7/1 -17%)Wolf's Gallop |
7/1(-17%) | (4) Wolf's Gallop 7/1, Market expected better on handicap debut beaten a length off this mark at Leicester last time; effective 5f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; can bounce back. Placed in novice events at Nottingham (5f, good to soft) and Windsor (5f, good to firm) before a close fourth of six on nursery debut at Leicester (9-4 favourite) two weeks ago; still unexposed after only four starts but he needs to find something extra on this switch to AW.. |

(3) (8/1 -60%)Viking Barbie |
8/1(-60%) | (3) Viking Barbie 8/1, Below form, perhaps not suited by fast ground when fourth beaten 10l in a novice at Beverley latest; effective 5f, acts on good; can bounce back on handicap and AW debut. Showed clear promise with her placed efforts at Salisbury and Sandown (both at 5f on good) but she flopped with a 10l defeat in a Beverley novice last month; still early days but she needs to bounce back with a personal best on this nursery debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/1 -13%)Miss Moneypit |

Justified favouritism on nursery debut here (5f, good to firm) last month and the step back up 6f seemed to backfire on her return visit 12 days ago; could resume her progress back at this trip and she's out of an AW winner; in the mix.. |

11/1(+8%) | (9) From Me To You 11/1, Below form, well out of depth down the field in a 2yo race at Newbury most recent; blinkers first time; usually held up; speedily-bred, acts on good to firm; could bounce back in calmer waters on handicap debut, but needs more. Finished down the field in first three starts and he beat only one rival in the Super Sprint at Newbury (40-1) last time; this is more realistic on nursery debut but he needs blinkers to make a big difference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 -60%)Sultan Darius |
12/1(-60%) | (6) Sultan Darius 12/1, Ran about to level when fourth beaten 8l in a novice at Yarmouth latest; hood first time; effective 5/6f, acts on good to firm; more needed on handicap debut. Single-figure prices but he was beaten 5l, 6l and 7l in three maiden/novice events over sprint trips; now goes handicapping with a hood added but he needs a transformation on AW debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (16/1 -100%)Secret Rival |
16/1(-100%) | (10) Secret Rival 16/1, Bit below form down in trip beaten 8l in a novice at Chepstow last time; pedigree all speed, looks best at 6f, acts on good to firm; could have more to offer back up in distance, but needs to settle. Her best effort in novice/maiden events was a 4l sixth of ten at Newbury (6f, good to firm) on her second start; out of a 5f 2yo winner but she struggled at Chepstow last time and has something to prove on nursery debut.. |

Each of these remain open to varying levels of improvement, with nursery debutant VIKING BARBIE edging the vote. Although underwhelming on her latest fourth at Beverley, a reproduction of her previous runner-up effort at Sandown could enable a breakthrough victory. Catterick scorer South West is heading in the right direction and Richard Hughes' charge is feared most, ahead of Secret Rival.

(1) (11/10 +45%)Seven Sisters |
11/10(+45%) | (1) Seven Sisters 11/10, Forced wide at sharp track having missed the break beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Chester last time; top course trainer; effective 7-10f, acts on good to firm and AW; worth another chance in handicaps. Unexposed filly who won Doncaster novice (1m2f, good to firm) in June and it was a solid handicap debut when fairly close fourth at Chester (10.5f, good) three weeks ago; unraced at two and it will be disappointing if we've already seen the best of her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (15/8 +6%)Supplicate |
15/8(+6%) | (2) Supplicate 15/8, Ran to form taking advantage of lenient opening mark to complete hat trick landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Nottingham last time; effective 8-10f, likely to get further still, acts on fast ground and AW; plenty more to come and still looks ahead of mark. After an encouraging debut she made good strides in three subsequent starts, winning a maiden (1m, AW), Bath novice and Nottingham handicap (also 1m2f, good to firm); handicapper couldn't go overboard after that latter success a fortnight ago; leading contender in bid for the four-timer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (9/2 +25%)Storm Point |
9/2(+25%) | (6) Storm Point 9/2, Yard won this last year; scored by 2 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Newbury penultimate start; too much to do having blown start last time, same mark here; effective 7f/8f, acts on good to soft and AW; handicapper may have caught up. Made a winning handicap debut on AW (7f) in April and he doubled his tally when landing Newbury handicap (1m, good to soft) in June; underperformed on good to firm over latter C\u0026D last month and he was taken out due to quick conditions at Glorious Goodwood three weeks later; goes up in trip with a query surrounding this forecast ground.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (10/1 -54%)Sudbury Hill |
10/1(-54%) | (3) Sudbury Hill 10/1, Needed every yard down in trip, returned to form in first time cheekpieces on Flat return landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark here last time; stays 10f, acts on fast ground and AW; generally consistent in this discipline. Sauntered home in a June juvenile hurdle and, after getting turned over in similar event at Stratford six days later, he got up late to land four-runner handicap over C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; first-time cheekpieces worn that day are retained and he's respected up 3lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (16/1 -14%)On The Inlet |
16/1(-14%) | (5) On The Inlet 16/1, Ran to form 6l third in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent run; effective 7/8f, acts on AW, may be suited by cut; more needed to defy this mark and quick conditions a worry. Looked good when winning twice on AW (1m/7f) in the spring but his form on turf doesn't bear comparison, albeit his last start on grass came in a warm handicap; proved underwhelming on AW last time and he now tackles a new trip with a question to answer.. |

SUPPLICATE continues to progress at a rapid rate of knots and the daughter of Ulysses is expected to land the four-timer. The step up to 1m2f has brought about plenty of improvement from Roger Varian's filly and she was always doing enough on her handicap bow at Nottingham. After a spell in juvenile hurdle contests, Sudbury Hill returned to the level with a battling success over C&D and is respected off a 3lb higher mark. Seven Sisters and Akho Mezzna, who drops in trip sporting blinkers for the first time, are feared most of the remainder.

(2) (8/11 +42%)Mythological Star |
8/11(+42%) | (2) Mythological Star 8/11, Improved again, did well to get up late landing a handicap by a neck off this mark here last time; trainer in form; effective 7-10f on a sound surface; more to come up to 11f now. Carries a penalty for the Ffos Las win (1m, good) as he escapes one for winning an apprentice race over 1m2f here on Monday, which was only by a neck but he had to be switched; competes off the same mark and Billy Loughnane is back on; should have no trouble seeing out this longer trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (7/2 -27%)Impossible Mission |
7/2(-27%) | (3) Impossible Mission 7/2, Well positioned, picked up well, ran to best landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 8-11f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; competitively weighted still. Exposed but consistent and dug deep to prevail in a close finish over 1m2f here a month ago (they went steady); every chance off 2lb higher; third over this trip the time before.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (7/2 -27%)Aravalli |
7/2(-27%) | (1) Aravalli 7/2, Improved back up to 12f, scored with plenty in hand landing a handicap by 4 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Chepstow last time; effective 10-12f, acts on soft and fast ground; in excellent form and could go in again under a penalty. Ex-Irish filly who is 3-5 for current yard, all the wins coming on fast ground at Chepstow (1m2f-1m4f); won as she liked last week so could well make light of the penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (11/2 +50%)Roker Roar |
11/2(+50%) | (4) Roker Roar 11/2, Ran to form 8l third in a handicap at Sandown most recent run; effective 1m-10f, acts on good to firm and AW; could do better yet after just four runs. Gelded ahead of his handicap debut at Sandown where he lacked the pace of the front two over 1m2f; this extra yardage can trigger some improvement.. |

Three of the four arrive having won last time out, but none look quite as progressive as MYTHOLOGICAL STAR. A winner over a mile at Ffos Las before following up over 1m2f here on Monday, he takes another step up in trip and can shoulder a 6lb penalty en route to completing his hat-trick. Aravalli scored at Chepstow last week and is the main threat, while course winner Impossible Mission is also of interest.

(11) (9/4 +50%)Thisistheway |
9/4(+50%) | (11) Thisistheway 9/4, Improved benefitting from stiff test at the trip when second beaten 3 1/4l in Galway Hurdle Handicap (Grade 3) at Galway latest; effective 2-2 1/2m over hurdles; progressive over jumps, found 7f too sharp on last Flat run, probably one for handicaps. Three-time hurdle winner ran her best race in that sphere when third in the Galway Hurdle last time; 7f was too sharp on her last Flat start but has a solid shout on the form of her Listowel fifth over 1m6f last September; big player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (11/4 +0%)Dream On Baby |
11/4(+0%) | (3) Dream On Baby 11/4, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; every chance, below form back in a handicap down the field in Listed Handicap Hurdle at Galway most recent; effective 2m-3m over hurdles where a Listed winner; has course form and maiden runs set standard, claims obvious. A 132-rated hurdler has run well in defeat on the Flat several times including when third over 1m4f here on return last month; however, was poor over hurdles at Galway since and has to rebound; the hood worn then is left off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (6/1 0%)Paul's Dream |
6/1(0%) | (8) Paul's Dream 6/1, Would've gone very close but for late error, touch unlucky 3l third in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent run; hugely progressive over hurdles at 2-2 1/2m, acts on yielding and good; very interesting on Flat debut. Has been in the form of her career this season, winning handicap hurdles at Ballinrobe and Kilbeggan before finishing a close third at Galway; now rated 129 in that sphere so has to be respected on Flat debut over a trip that will suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (15/2 +25%)Run For Mahler |
15/2(+25%) | (9) Run For Mahler 15/2, Too much to do having missed the break comfortably held in a maiden at Galway last time; sire very smart up to 2m on the Flat, stays 2 1/2m over hurdles; bumper and dual hurdle winner, more to come in this sphere for shrewd yard now stepped up in trip. Bumper and dual hurdle winner up to 2m4f (rated 132); the best of two Flat runs when beaten 11l in a 1m4f maiden at Galway last time; this longer trip will suit better and is a big player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (9/1 -20%)Kimy |
9/1(-20%) | (6) Kimy 9/1, Poorly placed to challenge having missed the break down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; usually held up; effective 12f-2m, acts on yielding; inconsistent maiden over hurdles, progressive on the Flat until latest but may be one for handicaps. Sole win over hurdles came here in 2024; also ran well on the Flat here when second in a 1m4f maiden when 1.25l ahead of Dream On Baby; well below that level at Galway since so has to rebound.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (11/1 -57%)Splashing Out |
11/1(-57%) | (10) Splashing Out 11/1, Improved suited by aggressive ride, aided by late faller when winning a handicap hurdle at Wexford by 6l last time; useful handicap hurdler at around 2m, acts on good; course winner over hurdles, market can guide on Flat debut. Made all to win over hurdles here in May and bounced back from a poor Galway run to again make all to win a Wexford handicap hurdle six days ago; goes well here and should be a player but likes to get her own way in front.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (12/1 +14%)Fraher Field |
12/1(+14%) | (4) Fraher Field 12/1, Returned to form back down in trip when second beaten 8 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Cork latest; effective 2m, acts on yielding, good; bumper winner, well held on sole Flat start so far. Won a Wexford bumper a year ago and has run some solid races in defeat over hurdles since including at Cork last time; beaten 10l in a Leopardstown maiden on sole Flat start; has a bit to find but can be involved.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (14/1 -75%)Blue Nasturtium |
14/1(-75%) | (2) Blue Nasturtium 14/1, Very promising effort shaping like a strong stayer 2l fourth in a maiden here first-time out; trainer in form; effective 12f, acts on good; could build on debut stepped up in trip. Produced a solid effort on debut when a close fourth over 1m4f here last month; with improvement forthcoming she could turn the tables on the placed horses then, Kimy and Dream On Baby; this trip is a question on pedigree, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (50/1 -25%)Goodie Girl |
50/1(-25%) | (5) Goodie Girl 50/1, Never threatened down in trip comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Downpatrick last time; off a short-break; effective 2 1/4-2 1/2m; progressive over hurdles but green and well held sole Flat start so far. Three-time hurdle winner stays 2m6f in that sphere and rated 110; beaten a long way on sole Flat start at Ballinrobe on return this year but can do better today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (100/1 +0%)Silas Marner |
100/1(+0%) | (1) Silas Marner 100/1, Blew the start and never travelled down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; effective 14f; showed promise over hurdles but yet to fire on the Flat. Maiden in all spheres was tailed-off in a 1m4f Galway maiden on return for a new yard so can't be fancied on that showing.. |

Listed hurdle winner DREAM ON BABY wasn't disgraced on her latest 12th in a Listed hurdle at the Galway Festival and she holds strong claims reverting to the level. The six-year-old had previously posted a good third over 1m4f here and this rise in distance could prove the catalyst for a first victory in this sphere. The pick of Kimy's efforts on the Flat gives her a shout, while debut fourth Blue Nasturtium is open to improvement.

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.
