FLANN SUNNA appeared to improve for the drop to 5f when a close third in the Flying Childers at Doncaster last month and a repeat of that performance may well be good enough to take this contest.

Marco Polo struggled in the Middle Park but should not be discounted, while Fast Track and Mussab are also noted.

100/1(-355%) | (6) Goliath Flight 100/1, Better was expected when well beaten in a 4yo bumper at Stratford only start; bred for 2m-2m6f; with top yard and can surely do better now hurdling. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Although thwarted in his hat-trick bid at Stratford, King's Scholar lost little in defeat, finding only a useful prospect too strong. Olly Murphy's charge should be in the shake-up once more, while Worcester winner Kind Intention is also heading in the right direction. That said, there are some interesting hurdling newcomers in receipt of weight, with COOLTOBECARELESS catching the eye. Unable to make an impact in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree, his previous exertions in NH Flat races suggest an event of this nature is within his compass.

17th (3) (14/1 -17%)Ozat |
14/1(-17%) | (3) Ozat 14/1, Ran roughly to form beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Ascot last time; drawn on wing of large field; suited by 8f, acts on both sides of good; ex-French winner, mark easing, but needs a bit more to get off the mark for new yard. |

Karl Burke won this last year and this time he relies on Inspired, who is already a three-time winner this season. He pulled too hard before finishing 15th at Doncaster in September, but could challenge if he settles. Empire Of Light and HENLEIN are both due to go up in the handicap for future races, with the latter an unlucky neck second after failing to get a clear run at Ascot and he seems likely to make amends.

12th (15) (150/1 -50%)Thuritha |

Nuit D'eclair has been running well in defeat at this level of late and merits plenty of respect. That said, she could be vulnerable once again and a chance can be taken with GOLDEN RING, who has improved with every start to date and bolted up in a Dundalk maiden a week ago. Sweltering is another recent impressive maiden winner to consider, while Miss Kodi and Siena Storm should not be written off.

|PU| (10) (125/1 -89%)Shirleynightingale |
125/1(-89%) | (10) Shirleynightingale 125/1, Improved on poor debut effort when fourth beaten 20l in a maiden hurdle at Tramore latest; trainer in form; effective 2m on soft; more to come, but might need handicaps. |

With all guns blazing from the stable, SAINT JEANNAIS is unlikely to be lacking for fitness on his return from a 146-day break. The Twiston-Davies' gelding made light work of the opposition on his hurdling bow at Bangor in May and he may be able to repel chief rival Dutch Corner. The five-year-old ended his spring campaign with a respectable sixth in the Novices' Championship Final at Sandown and should put his experience to good use. Market support for point-to-point winner Hive Runner would be interesting.

Capitano Josepi did well to score on debut when repeatedly denied a clear run and hanging badly. He can only go on from there with that experience under his belt and is unlikely to be too far away. Andrew Balding has three in here with Regency Royal, an easy winner at Chester, and NAKILA SUN making the most appeal. The latter has improved with every start and got off the mark in impressive style at Windsor last time. With that in mind, he tops the shortlist.

3rd (6) (12/1 +14%)Poets Rambler |

200/1(-100%) | (4) Lone Ash Lad 200/1, Hampered early, green and never travelled when down the field in a maiden hurdle here most recent; acts on good; looks one for further down the line. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (3) (4/1 +50%)Marine Tycoon |
4/1(+50%) | (3) Marine Tycoon 4/1, Crystal Ocean gelding; half-brother to Patsy's Honour, moderate at 22f; dam useful at 16f; yard in good form, market can guide. |

EURO AGENT looks to have been found a nice opportunity to shed his maiden tag. Runner-up on his previous two visits to this track, the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding again ran a solid race when third at Gowran Park last week. With an official rating of 105 and the benefit of previous experience, he looks the one to beat. Santa Paula, who also boasts placed form over hurdles at this track, could provide the main threat. Although she struggled at Ballinrobe last time, her previous runs would give the six-year-old decent claims. Twice placed in bumpers, the Gavin Cromwell-trained Orderly Conduct has to be respected on his hurdling debut.

4/1(+20%) | (2) Never So Brave 4/1, Slowly away and bit below best again beaten 5l in Park Stakes (Group 2) at Doncaster last time; top jockey back on board; effective 7/8f, suited by sound surface; G1 winner, winless this year but consistent, no forlorn stable second string. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

9/2(+50%) | (3) Witness Stand 9/2, Got racing too early but ran to form benefitting from drop in class when second beaten a neck in Guisborough Stakes (Listed) at Redcar latest; suited by 7f, acts on heavy and good to firm; generally consistent but poor strike rate, dangerous if allowed to dictate back up in grade but strike rate a worry. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (9/2 +25%)Pina Sonata |
9/2(+25%) | (6) Pina Sonata 9/2, Probably ran better fractions and to form when winning Sceptre Fillies' Stakes (Group 3) at Doncaster by 1 1/2l last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; progressive and not fully exposed over 7f, interesting. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (16/1 -14%)Holguin |
16/1(-14%) | (1) Holguin 16/1, Improved down in class and trip aided by leaders getting racing early when winning Goldene Peitsche (Group 3) at Baden-Baden by 2l last time; effective 6f, suited by 7f (gets 1m), acts on any, loves Chester; progressive, form of German Group win questionable, risky. |

All of these have claims, but none more so than FLORA OF BERMUDA. Andrew Balding's mare proved that she stays this far when second to More Thunder in the Park Stakes at Doncaster a month ago and she may even have more improvement left to come over this trip. Never So Brave has yet to show his very best this year but should not be written off in this company, while Time To Turn is the pick of the remainder.

500/1(-300%) | (6) Zerouali 500/1, Outpaced, never threatened 72l third in a maiden hurdle at Worcester most recent run; dam a hurdles winner at 2m1f; all to prove for now. |

Having offered plenty of promise on his second-placed Rules bow over C&D, SEVEN KITES makes plenty of appeal on his return to action. The four-year-old is expected to have strengthened up for a summer break and a first hurdling victory may beckon. Little Lady Rock arrives on the back of a close-up third over 2m1f at Newton Abbot and, if seeing out the trip, she may serve the most resistance to the selection ahead of Locker Boum, whose yard is in tremendous form at present.

16/1(-33%) | (8) Itica 16/1, Returned to form up in trip beaten a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Haydock last time; effective up to 14f, acts on soft and AW; light-framed filly, needs a bit more again off revised mark up in grade. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (4/1 +0%)Glory Road |

8th (5) (11/1 +8%)Baltic Fleet |

William Haggas has trained the winner of this three times in the last six years and has a lively chance of a fourth with GASPACHO. She won her last two starts as a juvenile and returned from 10 months off with an respectable fourth over 1m2f at Leicester last month. The same mark may underestimate her upped to this trip for the first time. Easy Carlisle winner Harper Violet should not be ignored, with Glory Road another to consider.

4th (5) (10/1 -25%)Speakasyoufind |
10/1(-25%) | (5) Speakasyoufind 10/1, Too much to do having been hampered, needed stiffer test down the field in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon most recent; effective 2m-2m3f; inconsistent maiden, may do better if stepped up in trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (33/1 -200%)Mr Caulfield |
33/1(-200%) | (3) Mr Caulfield 33/1, Unsuited by drop in trip, not asked a question down the field in a maiden hurdle at Galway most recent; effective 2 1/2m; point winner, capable of better over further in handicaps. |

Off the mark here last month, LYGON LAD can follow up. A 10-race maiden going into the contest, the Gordon Elliott-trained gelding seemed to appreciate the demands of this unique track as he stayed on best to open his account. Despite being raised 4lb for that maiden hurdle win, the six-year-old remains fairly treated reverting to handicap company. Facile Ocean had been in good form prior to finishing fourth at Kilbeggan and, on the balance of his previous form, the Ciaran Murphy-trained gelding shouldn't be far away. A three-time winner on the Flat, Papagei shaped with promise at Navan over flights and could be open to further improvement.

4th (5) (25/1 -39%)Lex Victoria |
25/1(-39%) | (5) Lex Victoria 25/1, Well placed off modest pace but quickened clear comfortably, improved to defy penalty when winning a novice at Kempton by 4l last time; effective 7f on good to firm; more to come from this useful prospect but needs it stepping up significantly in class. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

8th (2) (50/1 +24%)Exceptionally |
50/1(+24%) | (2) Exceptionally 50/1, Yard won this last year; every chance, bit below form but looked decent race for grade when 2 1/4l third in a maiden at Punchestown most recent run; effective 7/8f, should get further, acts on a sound surface; steadily progressing for top yard until latest, likely pacemaker here. |

The unbeaten MUSICAL TIMES is difficult to oppose. Charlie Appleby's dual novice winner returned the impressive winner of the Group 2 May Hill Stakes when upped to a mile at Doncaster last month and the daughter of Lope De Vega could prove a cut above the opposition. Rogue Passion was a Group 2 winner at Longchamp and the runner-up, Amusingly, has since boosted the form. She is the main danger, with the Listed winner Forbidden Fire preferred to Lex Victoria and Haven of the rest.

5/1(+9%) | (6) Captain Hugo 5/1, Travelled, improved again, just out-battled late on ground softer than ideal when second beaten 5l in Scottish Champion Hurdle (Grade 2) at Ayr latest; effective 2m, acts on heavy and good; progressive with more to come back back on better ground. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (11/1 -57%)Gibbs Island |

14/1(+22%) | (10) Filibustering 14/1, Ran to form when 8l third in a handicap hurdle at Perth most recent run; off a short-break; effective around 2m on a sound surface; hugely progressive but handicapper has reacted. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (10/3 +17%)Le Beau Madrik |
10/3(+17%) | (4) Le Beau Madrik 10/3, Run of race, improved again when winning a novice hurdle at Haydock by 15l last time; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on soft and good; looks very useful, down in trip but big chance on handicap debut. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (14/1 14/1)Hamlet's Night |
14/1(14/1) | (11) Hamlet's Night 14/1, Ran to best back on Flat landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 48lb lower mark at Yarmouth last time; effective 2m, acts on any but suited by sound surface; inconsistent dual-purpose performer, fair mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

50/1(-25%) | (2) Kateira 50/1, Ran to form, just flattening out late up the hill when comfortably held in BetMGM Cup Handicap Hurdle at Cheltenham last time; effective 2m-3m, suited by sound surface; tricky but on workable mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

66/1(-32%) | (12) Listentoyourheart 66/1, Poorly placed off modest pace down the field in a handicap hurdle at Sandown most recent; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good to soft and good; remains 4lb above last winning mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (8) (66/1 +0%)Sony Bill |
66/1(+0%) | (8) Sony Bill 66/1, Never travelled or jumped, again ran to a poor level when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Stratford last time; effective 2m-3m, best with give, acts on good; fitness on his side back hurdling but not at best of late. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (13) (33/1 +18%)Queenie St Clair |
33/1(+18%) | (13) Queenie St Clair 33/1, Ran to form back on Flat when 11l third in a handicap at Ffos Las most recent run; effective 12f on Flat, 2m over hurdles, acts with plenty of give; could have more to offer. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (5) (22/1 -10%)Serious Challenge |
22/1(-10%) | (5) Serious Challenge 22/1, Too much to do having conceded first run, returned to form when 6 1/4l third in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton most recent run; usually held up; effective 2m-2m2f, acts on good to soft and good; consistent and chance if ready for return. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (16) (17/2 -70%)Doctor Blue |

Captain Hugo beat Serious Challenge in the Morebattle at Kelso before finishing a respectable second in the Scottish Champion Hurdle when last in action. He could launch a strong challenge on his reappearance, while Le Beau Madrik showed marked improvement in novice company last term and Dan Skelton's handicap debutant could also get involved. However, PIONEER PETE has the more recent form having defied a penalty when landing the odds at Stratford last month and the progressive six-year-old looks on a fair mark back in a handicap.

1st (3) (4/9 -56%)Sharadd |
4/9(-56%) | (3) Sharadd 4/9, Yard won this last year; very promising, cosily 6l winner in a novice at Haydock on debut; top course trainer; effective 6f, acts on soft; nicely bred, plenty more to come for top yard. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (5/2 +17%)Our Son Oscar |
5/2(+17%) | (2) Our Son Oscar 5/2, Built on debut promise when winning a novice at Pontefract by 2 1/2l last time; effective 6f, acts on good; should go well again with more likely to come. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (50/1 -52%)Mugheer |
50/1(-52%) | (1) Mugheer 50/1, Very well-supported, though struggled under penalty when fourth beaten 4l in a novice at Redcar latest; effective 5f, should get further, acts on good; promising, but debut form has had knocks and needs to bounce back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (200/1 200/1)Pete's Angel |
200/1(200/1) | (5) Pete's Angel 200/1, Minor improvement from debut beaten 8 1/4l in a maiden here last time; sprint bred; this step down in trip should suit, but major improvement needed. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (8/1 +64%)Mehmas Star |
8/1(+64%) | (4) Mehmas Star 8/1, Ran roughly to debut level up in grade beaten 10l in an auction race at The Curragh last time; effective 6f, acts on good; can bounce back in calmer waters for top juvenile yard. |

Our Son Oscar built on an encouraging debut effort to score comfortably at Pontefract and is probably the main threat to SHARADD. The Dark Angel colt was extremely impressive when bolting up at Haydock on his debut and should be capable of much better for a yard who won this 12 months ago. Mehmas Star failed to kick on from a promising introduction at Carlisle, but he did face a tall task at the Curragh and this will be more to his liking.

2nd (4) (10/11 +55%)Invincible Oscar |
10/11(+55%) | (4) Invincible Oscar 10/11, Hampered by faller, needed every yard, improved landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m1f, acts on good; progressive, bit more to come. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 -60%)Pralognan |
4/1(-60%) | (1) Pralognan 4/1, Outpaced, ran to form comfortably held in a beginners chase chase here last time; effective 2m; generally consistent in both codes, threat. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5th (8) (9/1 -50%)Dark Berkshire |
9/1(-50%) | (8) Dark Berkshire 9/1, Made too much use of up in trip, didn't stay when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent; blinkers first time; effective 2m2f; inconsistent maiden, needs this drop in trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (125/1 -150%)Tommy Go Maith |
125/1(-150%) | (7) Tommy Go Maith 125/1, Far too free lit up by first time visor when well beaten in a maiden hurdle here latest; yet to show anything in either code beating only 2 home in 7 starts. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (9/2 -29%)Centaq |
9/2(-29%) | (5) Centaq 9/2, Out-battled late up the hill by strong stayer, ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m1f-2m3f, acts on good; maiden in decent form but frustrating. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (50/1 +0%)Viceregent |
50/1(+0%) | (2) Viceregent 50/1, No obvious excuse when well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2-2 1/2m; needs to prove ability remains after lay off. |

Despite coming into this contest as a 17-race maiden, CENTAQ appears to hold decent claims. Runner-up here last month, the Dermot McLoughlin-trained gelding wouldn't need to improve a lot to finally register a first career win. Alix Balfe, who was on board last time, retains the ride on this occasion. Winner of that aforementioned race, Invincible Oscar rates the main danger. Raised 6lb, the bulk of that is taken off by his very capable claimer. Pahlavi is a previous track-and-trip winner who shaped as though on the way back when a staying-on fourth at the Listowel Festival.

10/1(-54%) | (5) Study Of Words 10/1, Ran to form appreciating drop back in trip when second beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Ascot latest; top course jockey/trainer combination; off a short-break; effective 10-12f, acts on soft and good to firm; still time for him to fulfil potential, stable first string on jockey bookings. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (11/1 11/1)Lord D'or |
11/1(11/1) | (10) Lord D'or 11/1, Too much to do having met trouble ridden to see out the trip beaten 1 1/2l off this mark at Ascot last time; effective 8-12f, acts on a sound surface; consistent, closely matched with re-opposing rivals. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (10/3 +52%)Decade Of Time |
10/3(+52%) | (2) Decade Of Time 10/3, Improved again up in trip beaten a head off a 2lb lower mark at Ascot last time; effective 8-12f, acts on soft and good to firm; progressive sort who is unexposed over this far. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5th (9) (22/1 -120%)Liberate |
22/1(-120%) | (9) Liberate 22/1, Improved up in trip on AW debut when winning a novice at Kempton by a head last time; off a short-break; effective 10-12f, should get further, acts on soft and a sound surface; progressive in novices, form franked, more to come now handicapping but mark demands it. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (13/2 -30%)Turty Tree |
13/2(-30%) | (6) Turty Tree 13/2, Ridden conservatively to get 12f, quickened well and extremely game landing a handicap by a head off a 3lb lower mark at Ascot last time; effective at 10-12f, acts on good to soft and fast ground; consistent handicapper, should remain competitive up 3lb. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (22/1 -22%)Into The Light |
22/1(-22%) | (4) Into The Light 22/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; scored by 2l off a 7lb lower mark at Goodwood three starts back; made too much use of last time, 1lb lower here; top course trainer; effective 10-12f, acts on good, good to firm and AW; inconsistent but capable of very useful form, stable second string. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (9/4 +36%)Archers Bay |
9/4(+36%) | (1) Archers Bay 9/4, Scored by 3 1/4l off a 8lb lower mark at Ascot three starts back; ran to form up in class in Godolphin Stakes (Listed) here latest; effective 10-12f, acts on heavy, fast ground and AW; progressive sort in handicaps, Listed form looks strong for grade, every chance. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

18/1(-13%) | (11) Kahin 18/1, Yard won this last year; ran to form in first time cheekpieces beaten 3 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Ascot last time; effective 8-10f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; son of Kingman likely has more to offer but needs it to defy this mark, form has had knocks. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (7/1 7/1)Devil's Peak |
7/1(7/1) | (7) Devil's Peak 7/1, Very game and ran at least to best going away line landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; effective at 10-14f, acts on sound surface; steadily progressive, should go well again. |

Turty Tree narrowly beat Decade Of Time in a tough handicap at Ascot last month, while third-placed Archers Bay has shaped well in Listed company here since. That trio are hard to separate, with Study Of Words making more appeal having been gelded since finishing second at Ascot during the summer. That said, a chance is taken on the less exposed LIBERATE. Harry Eustace's charge beat a subsequent winner at Kempton on his first attempt at 1m4f and could prove better than his mark.

16/1(+43%) | (7) West Hill Verde 16/1, Bit too free, may have found ground a bit testing when 12l third in a novice hurdle at Ayr most recent run; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on heavy and good to soft; consistent maiden, Grade 2-placed in February. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (5/1 +38%)La Cote Fleurie |
5/1(+38%) | (10) La Cote Fleurie 5/1, Improved again showing good attitude when winning a novice hurdle at Kilbeggan by 1 1/2l last time; effective 2m-2m3f on a sound surface; progressing over hurdles for top Irish yard, looks a player here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/1 +36%)Lock Stock |
9/1(+36%) | (6) Lock Stock 9/1, Improved up in trip on handicap debut when winning a handicap hurdle at Worcester by 4 1/2l last time; effective over 2m-2m4fm, acts on good to soft and good; form franked, needs more but is progressive. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (6/1 +0%)North Shore |

6th (8) (7/2 -27%)Lord Byron |
7/2(-27%) | (8) Lord Byron 7/2, Needed run back on Flat when comfortably held in a maiden at Carlisle last time; in good form prior; effective 2m1f-2m5f on heavy and yielding; sets a high standard on juvenile form but is still a maiden over hurdles. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (100/1 -25%)Obsessedwithyou |
100/1(-25%) | (11) Obsessedwithyou 100/1, Outpaced, couldn't go early gallop when second beaten 11l in a handicap chase at Newton Abbot latest; blinkers first time; enjoys making it; effective 2m-2m4f, suited by sound surfaces; looks up against it back hurdling. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (50/1 +0%)Chicker |
50/1(+0%) | (1) Chicker 50/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; keen, taken on up front, did a bit too much too soon back from a break but ran to form when second beaten 1 1/4l in a novice hurdle at Perth latest; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good; early days but much more needed at this level. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (15/8 -50%)Cosmic Connection |
15/8(-50%) | (2) Cosmic Connection 15/8, Did it cosily, improved again relishing stiff finish when winning a handicap hurdle at Sandown by 3 1/4l last time; effective at 2m on good to soft and good; progressive, more to come over further this season. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (16/1 +0%)Le Moulin Rouge |
16/1(+0%) | (5) Le Moulin Rouge 16/1, Ran to form to get off the mark when winning a maiden hurdle at Wexford by 3l last time; effective 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; more to come for good Irish yard but this is tougher. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (20/1 +70%)Handmedownastar |
20/1(+70%) | (3) Handmedownastar 20/1, Improved to defy penalty showing willing attitude when winning a novice hurdle at Kelso by 7l last time; effective 2m2f-2m5f, acts on soft and good to firm; has plenty more to offer but needs it at this level. |

COSMIC CONNECTION won three of his four starts over timber last term, culminating with a convincing victory over 2m at Sandown in April. Chris Gordon will likely have him primed for action and this extra test of stamina is expected to bring further improvement from the point-to-point winner. Lord Byron should be sharper for last month's Flat spin and a repeat of his narrow defeat in a Grade 1 at the Punchestown Festival could see him in the mix. Killarney maiden hurdle winner North Shore is worth noting debuting for Dan Skelton's yard.

7/4(+13%) | (4) Instant Force 7/4, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; improved again, opened account down in trip with the addition of first-time cheekpieces when winning a maiden at Windsor by 1 1/2l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on both sides of good; remains open to further progress now entering handicaps for top juvenile yard. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (8/1 -7%)Harley |
8/1(-7%) | (7) Harley 8/1, Ran to the balance of form beaten 2l off this mark at Pontefract last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 6f, acts on sound surface; consistent, worth a shot dropped to the minimum distance. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (12/1 +40%)Rotelle |
12/1(+40%) | (6) Rotelle 12/1, Below form after playing up in gates at start well beaten in a nursery at Chester latest; in good form prior; wide draw; effective 5f, acts on good and AW; strong, consistent sort, on a fair mark but needs to settle. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (50/1 -52%)Lake Muritz |
50/1(-52%) | (10) Lake Muritz 50/1, Ran roughly to her level beaten 5 1/4l in a nursery at Pontefract last time; wide draw; effective 5f, acts on good to soft and good; drop in trip should help, but plenty more needed now handicapping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

7/2(+13%) | (3) Black Velvet Boy 7/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 9lb lower mark at Windsor three starts back; ran to form second beaten a neck off 83 last time, 3lb higher here; effective 5f, acts on both sides of good; progressive, should remain competitive despite edging up in the weights again. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (13/2 -44%)Furturra |
13/2(-44%) | (9) Furturra 13/2, Yard won this last year; ran to current level beaten 3l off this mark at Ayr last time; effective 5/6f, acts on both sides of good; consistent and down to a fair mark, but probably better off down a grade. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (6/1 +33%)Bear Lee |
6/1(+33%) | (8) Bear Lee 6/1, Much below form back in handicap company beaten 8 1/2l in a nursery at Doncaster last time; wide draw; effective 5f/6f, acts with give and on a sound surface; potentially flatted by result of Ripon Champion Two Yrs Old Trophy, more needed. |

BLACK VELVET BOY might not have the same amount of scope as a few of these, but the Quinns' gelding has a very willing attitude and can continue his progress. After recording his first two successes at Beverley and Windsor, the son of Soldier's Call bumped into an improver at Thirsk and was then edged out at Newmarket. He has been raised a further 3lb but, judged on recent performances, it still appears to be workable. Nursery debutants Instant Force and Noble Raider merit respect and don't discount Harley, who could improve for the addition of first-time cheekpieces.

2nd (2) (7/2 -27%)Fuusland |
7/2(-27%) | (2) Fuusland 7/2, Improved up in trip when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last time; effective 2m1f-2m6f, acts on good; with top yard, progressing, bit more to come. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (25/1 +50%)Spill A Drop |
25/1(+50%) | (4) Spill A Drop 25/1, Ran to form when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Gowran Park most recent; effective 2m5f, acts on good; has shown promise but looks one for low grade handicaps. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (7/2 -40%)Young Doran |
7/2(-40%) | (5) Young Doran 7/2, Disappointing bumper debut when down the field in a bumper at Listowel most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective at around 2 3/4m, acts on good; in good form over hurdles this summer, form franked, can bounce back. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (66/1 66/1)Poet's Creek |
66/1(66/1) | (6) Poet's Creek 66/1, Continued in poor form when down the field in a bumper here most recent; dam effective at 2m; showed nothing in bumpers, may need more time. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (80/1 -100%)Grey Ace |
80/1(-100%) | (3) Grey Ace 80/1, Kingston Hill gelding; tongue-tie first time; dam placed in chase in France over 2m3f; may just need this initial experience. |

Bumper winner LITTLE GINGER can gain a first victory over jumps. Runner-up in a maiden hurdle at this track last time, the James Fahey-trained gelding should appreciate stepping up in trip. With only the two previous runs over flights, the son of Crystal Ocean is open to plenty of improvement and arguably sets the standard in a weak affair. Young Doran would hold definite claims on his first two outings over jumps, but has questions to answer having finished completely tailed off in a Listowel bumper last month. He will need the first-time cheekpieces to make a huge impact. Fuusland looks best of the remainder.

2nd (7) (11/2 +0%)Threelittleangels |
11/2(+0%) | (7) Threelittleangels 11/2, Late gains after interference, promising third beaten 5l in a novice here debut; effective 6f on AW; obvious claims given normal progress. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

50/1(-52%) | (8) Wintour 50/1, Improved a little from debut up to 7f beaten 7 1/4l in a novice at Yarmouth last time; bred for 7-9f; type to do better when handicapping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (9/1 -29%)Sarasota Blue Blue |
9/1(-29%) | (6) Sarasota Blue Blue 9/1, Never competitive after an awkward start beaten 8l in a novice at Carlisle on debut; bred for 5/6f; almost certainly capable of better, could show big improvement. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (40/1 -21%)Lilywhite Hart |

Having supplemented a promising second-placed debut at Newbury with a breakthrough victory at Yarmouth, this could prove a suitable opportunity for BIDSTA to follow up. George Boughey's filly scored a shade cosily and looks capable of shouldering a 7lb penalty, with Threelittleangels feared most. The daughter of Harry Angel offered plenty to work with on her opening third over C&D and improvement is forecast. Lilywhite Hart is the pick of the remainder.

9/1(-6%) | (8) Lady Youmzain 9/1, Met trouble at a key stage, no chance when after beaten 7l in Scottish Sprint Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at Ayr last time; in good form prior; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good; excuses last time and possibly a bit to come, already proven at this level. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

The consistent Forty Years On has been in fine fettle over 7f and has to be of interest in this grade, as does The Prettiest Star. Dance In The Storm could go also well, but MIDNIGHT TANGO gets another chance fitted with a tongue-tie for the first time. Not at her best in Listed company of late, Ed Walker's filly was only beaten a neck in a Group 3 sprint at Ascot in May and a repeat effort would see her bang there at the finish.

UNJEU ROYAL faced a tougher task at Warwick when last in action. A winner at Plumpton before that, Tom Lacey's charge has plenty of scope off his current mark and could make a bold bid back in this grade. Knight Templar is fit from racing on the level and won at Taunton when last seen over timber. He could make his presence felt, as could Opening Bid, who returns from a long absence but can race off a lower mark back over hurdles. Typhoon Warrior is another to note.

TOCA MADERA returned to winning ways in a conditions race at Beverley last month. Placed in a valuable handicap off a 1lb higher mark here in August, David O'Meara's sprinter looks worth sticking with back in a handicap. Equity Law landed a double over the minimum trip during the summer and Tim Easterby's charge is preferred to stablemate Go Vince Go, while Tatterstall resumed winning ways at Lingfield recently and could prove to be competitive in this grade.

Having run his best race to date when third here last month, YOUKNOWME can make the breakthrough. Staying on late to make the frame, the Philip Rothwell-trained gelding should appreciate stepping back up in trip. C&D winner Jimli's Cave has also been placed here on a couple of occasions and Daniel King looks a significant booking on the locally-trained gelding. Hob's Angel is another with place claims at the very least. Trainer James Barcoe was among the winners at the weekend and this 10-year-old mare has run some decent races in defeat since opening her account at Clonmel in May.

18/1(+36%) | (11) Invincible Isaac 18/1, Ran to form when third beaten 4 1/2l off 67 last time, 1lb lower here; off a short-break; effective 5/6f, acts on good and AW; should remain competitive, likes it here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

40/1(+0%) | (12) Agent Rose 40/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 9l in a maiden at Windsor last time; wide draw; bred to stay middle-distances; type to do better now handicapping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

80/1(-21%) | (10) Yahaira 80/1, Hampered and below form well beaten in a nursery at Nottingham latest; off a short-break; effective 6f on fast surface; plenty of speed, could bounce back. |

Bahia Bonita has improved with each outing, culminating in a victory on her third start at Newcastle. An official rating of 69 on her nursery debut looks workable and she isn't taken lightly, but a wide draw may leave her vulnerable. This could leave the door open for Leicester runner-up SOEUR DE FLASH to gain some compensation, with a 2lb nudge up the ratings looking fair. Laylaty and Sydney Grace are others of interest.

A switch to aggressive tactics saw Naga make all in a Listed contest at Yarmouth last month and another bold is forecast. However, the Gosdens' filly may find this step up in class more difficult to dominate and Sceptre Fillies' Stakes runner-up TOULEEN edges the vote. The daughter of Lope De Vega has shaped as if this step up in distance could unlock some potential and she holds leading claims judged on the official ratings. On Message and Legacy Link are others of note.

STAR GLORY sets a decent standard here off a mark of 85. The Cotai Glory filly ran well to chase home a decent sort in Maeda Matsu at Naas on her last start and a similar effort would make her the one to beat now. Ippy showed significant improvement to finish third at a massive price at Down Royal last time but the ratings suggest she has a bit to find off her mark of 73. The Joseph O'Brien-trained newcomer Ladies Gossip deserves a look in the market after the Calyx filly cost 170,000 Euros at the breeze-ups.

FASOL has been slowly edging down the ratings and his latest third at Bangor in May suggests that he could play a leading role now just 2lb above his last winning mark. Codetalker is an obvious threat having bolted up at Southwell in March, although a 9lb rise is a slight concern. Others to note are Beau Quali, Step Ahead and Guchen.

14/1(-27%) | (1) Obelix 14/1, Ran roughly to form beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Beverley last time; effective 7f, acts on both sides of good; generally consistent last few starts, should remain competitive off easing mark. |

Beaten only a neck in a tougher contest over C&D last month, QUEST FOR FUN makes plenty of appeal. Placed again subsequently at Ayr, the eight-year-old may prove to be the one to side. Magic Boy went close over 6f at Ripon last time and this longer trip is not an issue for Nigel Tinkler's charge. He's preferred to the recent Southwell winners Feel The Need and Mystical Storm or the remainder.

|PU| (8) (18/1 -177%)River Tara |

Jack Kennedy looks a significant booking on the Paul Traynor-trained ASTLEY. Third in a handicap chase at Gowran Park last weekend, the gelding reverts to a beginners chase with the champion jockey in the saddle. Given that Kennedy appears to have deserted the Gordon Elliott-trained Down Around in favour of the selection, the hint should be taken. A three-time winner over hurdles, Down Around still has to be respected on only his second start over fences. A faller three out at Sligo recently, Kennedy was on board on that occasion. Point-to-point winner Ring Of Kerry should be noted too.

4/1(+38%) | (9) Henfield 4/1, Didn't stay up to extended 9f when comfortably held in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; in good form prior; effective 8f on AW; steadily progressing until latest, could bounce back. |

Having filled the runner-up spot at Ffos Las on her last two outings, ARVANA BELLE makes plenty of appeal in her current vein of form. A 2lb higher mark looks more than fair for Rod Millman's filly and she boasts a handy draw in stall four. Newcastle fourth Positive Thoughts arrives here in better form than most and may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Ernie Mccrew, who should appreciate a return to Polytrack.

17/2(+15%) | (10) Expert Agent 17/2, Too much to do having met trouble at a key stage beaten 5l in a handicap here last time; in good form prior; suited by 6f, acts on sound surface and AW; generally in good form, worth another try over this far. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (28/1 +15%)Back To Me |

25/1(+38%) | (14) Albemagic 25/1, Made bit too much use of well beaten in a handicap at Carlisle latest; effective up to 8f, acts on good and good to firm; probably flattered by maiden outlier, must bounce back. |

BINTOLA looked to improve on her first attempt over 7f when finishing third over C&D last month. A 1lb ease in the ratings could prove to be lenient for the three-year-old and a second career victory may be on the horizon. Reopposing fifth Nanoscience was only a length behind the selection and she must enter the reckoning, while better is expected from Waistcoat, who has looked in need of this trip of late.

THUMAMA GLORY looks like he'll appreciate stepping back up to seven furlongs after a good effort to finish second over shorter here three weeks ago. The Cotai Glory gelding got a touch outpaced mid-race then but came to hold every chance a furlong out before finding Value Pending too strong late on. A similar effort should see him go close. He can again hold The Pipeman, who finished fifth that day and hasn't progressed from his debut second. Tio Joao ran well when runner-up in a nursery here last week and also has to be on the shortlist, while newcomers Tajac and Final Ascent, deserve a look in the market.

6/1(6/1) | (8) Georgia's Charm 6/1, Below form up in trip when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Worcester last time; returning from a break; effective around 2m on sound surface; improvement needed off reduced mark. |

Adba has to be respected having got off the mark in a mares' maiden hurdle at Market Rasen a couple of weeks ago. That said, preference is for GETAROSE, who had plenty in hand when scoring at Plumpton recently and is only 4lb higher on this occasion. Siorai was second that day and could make the frame once again, while Reel Orange completes the shortlist.

Recent Sligo winner MINI GETAWAY can follow up for trainer Martin Lynch. Third at Wexford on her previous outing, the nine-year-old is thriving at present and has to be followed. A former point-to-point scorer, she also ran well on her only previous visit to this track, so everything looks in place for another big performance. Admirable veteran Fr Gilligansvoyge has to be respected at a venue where he is a previous C&D winner. Although well beaten on his last two runs, he had been in fine form earlier in the year. Lecale's Diamond is another worthy of consideration.

10/3(+33%) | (5) Lily Pink 10/3, Back to debut level on better ground when second beaten 2l in a novice at Newmarket latest; wide draw; effective 8f on sound surface; obvious form claims here on AW debut. |

Lily Pink would be a deserved winner having occupied the runner-up spot on two of her three racecourse appearances, while Watch Party has looked ready for a step up to a mile on both of her starts and also enters calculations. Newcomers Red Curry and Playhouse represent powerful yards and are of definite interest, but this could be all about NEWS. The daughter of Cracksman, who is from the family of 1000 Guineas heroine Mother Earth, looked potentially smart when bolting up at Southwell and the penalty might not be enough to stop her from going in again.

MICKEY THE STEEL is 10lb higher than when winning here last month but may be able to strike again in a moderate looking affair. The veteran has run well to finish placed back on the turf since and he may prove the safest option here. In A Hurry was third to the selection here three weeks ago and is entitled to get a bit close now at the revised weights. Lahore Da King won twice over course and distance last winter and didn't run too badly on his latest turf outing. He has slipped a bit in the ratings and could play a bigger role now.

Lingfield debut winner SIN CITY was out of his depth in a conditions race over C&D next time, but he still retains lots of potential and is expected to be good enough to shoulder a penalty and regain the winning thread in this novice event. Kinetic Impact has shown promise and might be capable of better having been gelded since his latest Salisbury effort, while El Presidente is also in the mix.

50/1(+24%) | (8) Eschweiler 50/1, Much below form down the field in a handicap at Gowran Park most recent; returning from a break; effective 7f, acts on good; looks flattered by earlier Epsom second, very hard to make a case for on first start for another new yard. |

MEHMAN has won four times over sprint trips here but seven furlongs isn't a problem either and he can strike again at the venue after running well over six here a fortnight ago, when third to the in-form Caffu Zafeen. He had been placed over seven and a mile earlier this year and may even need a bit further at this stage of his career. Boston Max was a length behind the selection last time and could be a danger with Nina Doherty taking 10lb off his back. Send Harry ran well here on his penultimate outing but is 7lb higher now, which doesn't make life any easier.

HAVANA TOUCH struggled on the turf at Ayr latest but the three-time course winner will be much happier back on an artificial surface, not least around here, and can get back on track in the hands of Billy Loughnane. Eupator's handicap mark has been on a steady decline but he's shown enough at times this year to suggest he can take advantage if things go his way, and don't rule out the top-weight Marsh Benham because he was far from disgraced at Brighton last time.

10th (1) (14/1 +22%)Bold Style |
14/1(+22%) | (1) Bold Style 14/1, Outpaced, never threatened down in trip comfortably held in the Conditions Race at Cork last time; effective 7f/1m, acts on AW and good; looks vulnerable on these terms. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (20/1 -25%)Star Strewn |
20/1(-25%) | (12) Star Strewn 20/1, Run of race, good attitude landing a handicap by a neck off a 9lb lower mark at Cork last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; needs more again off revised mark up in class. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (9/1 -20%)Sonoran |
9/1(-20%) | (4) Sonoran 9/1, Improved back down in trip suited by stiff track landing a handicap by a length off a 4lb lower mark at Navan last time; trainer in form; effective 8-10f, acts with cut, on good and AW; remains well treated on best form, could follow up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (5/1 +50%)Bishopton |
5/1(+50%) | (5) Bishopton 5/1, Below form again stepped up in class beaten 5l in a handicap at Fairyhouse last time; off a short-break; effective 6/7f, acts on any; 3lb below last winning mark on AW return, but needs to bounce back. |

Previous course and distance winner DALER could prove the answer to a tricky looking handicap. The consistent Dark Angel gelding ran well at Navan last time when third to stablemate Sonoran who now meets the winner on 5lb better terms. Naoi got a 10lb hike for her win at Fairyhouse last time but Reese Holohan takes half of that off now and she is respected. Exquisite Acclaim has been knocking on the door and is another to consider back here, having won seven times at the venue.

7/2(-27%) | (4) Berry Clever 7/2, Ran to form, good attitude landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Newmarket last time; usually held up; effective 7f/8f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; good mark still, former C&D winner can go well again. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (11/1 +0%)The Hare Rail |
11/1(+0%) | (7) The Hare Rail 11/1, Back to best, good attitude landing a handicap by a head off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; trainer in form; suited by 7-9f, acts on a sound surface; chance if building on latest. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

12/1(12/1) | (3) It'sneverjustone 12/1, Travelled but didn't get home on soft beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Ayr last time; blinkers first time; suited by 7f, acts on soft, good and AW; could do with dropping to 7f. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (9/1 -20%)Cancan In The Rain |
9/1(-20%) | (2) Cancan In The Rain 9/1, Again below form beaten 7l in a handicap at Newmarket last time; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface, likes the Newmarket July course; mark easing but needs more. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (8/1 -7%)Asteverdi |
8/1(-7%) | (1) Asteverdi 8/1, Back to form up to 8f beaten a length off this mark here last time; suited by 8f, acts on heavy, good to firm and AW; chance once again here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (66/1 -65%)Longlai |
66/1(-65%) | (6) Longlai 66/1, Didn't get home back up to 8f beaten 10l in a handicap here last time; cheekpieces first time; wide draw; suited by 8/9f, acts on a sound surface; out of form, others stronger. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (40/1 -122%)Port Erin |
40/1(-122%) | (9) Port Erin 40/1, Ran to current form when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Bath latest; wide draw; effective 8f, acts on a sound surface; back below last winning mark but needs more than of late. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

10th (10) (100/1 -52%)King Of Charm |
100/1(-52%) | (10) King Of Charm 100/1, Bit keen and again below form well beaten in a handicap at Newmarket latest; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface; bit to prove at present. |

GUNFIGHTER had Asteverdi a length back in third when finally proving that he stays a mile for a C&D success and connections must feel confident in his follow-up bid because they have booked Billy Loughnane. The horse who got closest to him last time wasn't able to boost the form in a Newmarket affair won by Berry Clever, so Chris Dwyer's five-year-old has to be considered dangerous. The Hare Rail dug deep to break through at Wolverhampton, but this requires more.

4/1(-78%) | (7) Aiteall 4/1, Best effort yet with the addition of cheekpieces beaten 1 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Down Royal last time; effective 11f, acts on good to yielding; nicely bred, should have more to come for top yard now. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5/1(+58%) | (12) Kingcharles 5/1, Showed very little again stepped up in trip beaten 9l in a handicap at Navan last time; yet to find suitable conditions; mark continues to ease, but needs a lot more to open account. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (20/1 -82%)Zitkala Sa |
20/1(-82%) | (13) Zitkala Sa 20/1, Outran massive odds switched back to AW beaten 3l off this mark here last time; effective 10/12f, acts on yielding and AW; hinted at something latest, chance if building on that. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (7/1 -27%)Doctor Grace |
7/1(-27%) | (5) Doctor Grace 7/1, Returned to form 4 1/2l third in a handicap here most recent run; top course trainer; effective 10-12f, acts on good and AW; chance if building on latest. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

7/1(+7%) | (1) Timandi 7/1, Below recent claiming form 4 1/2l third in a handicap at The Curragh most recent run; effective up to 12f, acts with give, on good and AW; inconsistent, possibly a bit flattered by recent efforts. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (100/1 -203%)Ebony Reign |
100/1(-203%) | (9) Ebony Reign 100/1, No impression once again down the field in a maiden at Fairyhouse most recent; tongue-tie first time; yet to find suitable conditions; plenty more needed now handicapping. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

33/1(-18%) | (11) Ventriloquist 33/1, Found nothing again stepped up in trip down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; yet to find suitable conditions; impossible to make a case for on handicap debut. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (8) (12/1 +57%)Colugo |
12/1(+57%) | (8) Colugo 12/1, Ran to same poor level beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap here last time; effective up to 12f, acts on AW; has shown very little this term. |

STORM ERIC finished a decent third over a mile here a fortnight ago and may well appreciate stepping back up in trip. His previous course wins have come over shorter, but he has plenty of placed form over this extended 10-furlong trip and looks capable of adding to his tally. Timandi posted a solid effort to finish third at the Curragh 12 days ago and could go well under top weight, while Aiteall is less exposed and is another to consider after a good effort at Down Royal recently.

3/1(-33%) | (3) Star Time 3/1, Didn't get home on heavy when comfortably held in a handicap at Haydock last time; effective 10-12f, acts on a sound surface and AW; return to AW in his favour. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +11%)Harlington |
4/1(+11%) | (1) Harlington 4/1, Again below form beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Sandown last time; off a short-break; effective 10-12f, acts on heavy, good to firm and AW; slipped 1lb below last winning mark, not ruled out. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

11/4(+21%) | (5) Mountbatten 11/4, Didn't get home back up in trip comfortably held in a handicap at Lingfield last time; in good form prior; effective 12f, acts on good to firm an AW; might show the benefit of gelding operation, could get back on track. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5th (8) (17/2 +6%)Tales Old As Time |
17/2(+6%) | (8) Tales Old As Time 17/2, Travelled, didn't see it out when fourth beaten 7l in a handicap at Ffos Las latest; effective at 7/8f, acts on AW; stamina to prove over this trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

7th (4) (5/1 +9%)Meet Me In Meraki |
5/1(+9%) | (4) Meet Me In Meraki 5/1, Ran to form, good attitude landing a handicap by a nose off a 2lb lower mark at Southwell last time; usually held up; effective 10-12f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; can go well again in hat-trick bid. |

Although Meet Me In Meraki only won by a nose at Southwell last month, he ran on well over a furlong shorter and an added 2lb from the handicapper still leaves him looking competitive. However, HARLINGTON returns to a mile and a half after competing over 10 furlongs since January and having won off 1lb higher at Chelmsford in February, he looks the best handicapped. Mountbatten has to come into the equation as well.

2nd (5) (3/1 3/1)Cooley's Mist |
3/1(3/1) | (5) Cooley's Mist 3/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 8lb lower mark at Leopardstown in July; ran to the balance of form third beaten 5 1/4l off 69 last time, same mark here; effective up to 14f, acts with give and on good; in very good form, should go close again. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

12/1(+33%) | (6) Coolnagrattan 12/1, Ran to current level beaten 7 1/2l in a maiden here last time; effective 12f, acts on good; more needed on handicap debut. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (8/1 +33%)Dark Viper |
8/1(+33%) | (1) Dark Viper 8/1, Scored by 2 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Leopardstown three starts back; didn't stay 12f, ran well to a point comfortably held in a conditions race last time; effective 8-10f, acts with cut and on good; in form, drop in trip a plus, mark probably about right. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (25/1 -108%)Wandering Rocks |
25/1(-108%) | (4) Wandering Rocks 25/1, Ran to current level returned to Flat beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap here last time; effective 12f on Flat, stays 17f over hurdles, acts on good and AW; on a fair mark, but needs a bit more to end losing streak. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

9/2(+31%) | (7) Showyoutheropes 9/2, Much below form down the field in a handicap at Down Royal most recent; effective 10-12f, suited by a sound surface; mark continues to ease, but needs more than has shown of late. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (7/4 +0%)Camino Lad |
7/4(+0%) | (3) Camino Lad 7/4, Ran to form stepped back up in trip on handicap debut beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time; trainer in form; effective 8-11f, should get further, acts on yielding, good and AW; very consistent in short career, should go well again stepped up to 12f. |

CAMINO LAD arrives in fine form. The Flintshire gelding won a maiden at Bellewstown on his penultimate start and subsequently ran a big race here when second to the more experienced Quatre Bras on his handicap debut. There looks more to come and Ger Lyons' charge gets the nod. Cooley's Mist has been knocking on the door and looks a danger off his current mark, while Serenity Blue could be nicely treated is another to note on his first start for Ado McGuinness.

2nd (7) (5/2 +9%)Bold Shout |
5/2(+9%) | (7) Bold Shout 5/2, Not best of runs, should have finished closer beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time; effective 6/7f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; more to come at this trip, good chance. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (15/2 15/2)Angels' Share |
15/2(15/2) | (8) Angels' Share 15/2, Bit wide and below form when fourth beaten 4l off 68 last time, same mark here; enjoys making it; effective 7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; been in decent form overall, can go well here with better trip. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5th (2) (3/1 +25%)Red Hat Eagle |
3/1(+25%) | (2) Red Hat Eagle 3/1, Ran to the balance of form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface and AW; in fair form and on a competitive mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (28/1 +15%)Flash Rascal |
28/1(+15%) | (3) Flash Rascal 28/1, Again below form, found little beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; cheekpieces first time; ideally suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; slipped back to a fair mark but not in best of form. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (13/2 +28%)Santiago Boy |
13/2(+28%) | (4) Santiago Boy 13/2, Again below form beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; bounce back needed but on fair mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (40/1 -21%)San Juanito |
40/1(-21%) | (13) San Juanito 40/1, Lacked pace down to 7f beaten 8l in a handicap here last time; hood first time; wide draw; effective 8-10f, acts on good and AW; might want returning to further. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (22/1 +0%)Rey De La Batalla |
22/1(+0%) | (5) Rey De La Batalla 22/1, Never in it from off the pace down to 7f beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap here last time; trainer in form; wide draw; effective 7/8f, best on AW; might want returning to 8f. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (40/1 -21%)Loquella |
40/1(-21%) | (10) Loquella 40/1, Didn't stay 8f beaten 6l in a handicap here last time; suited by 6/7f, acts on AW; drop in trip a plus here. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (14) (66/1 -164%)Manhattan Chute |
66/1(-164%) | (14) Manhattan Chute 66/1, Never in it from off the pace beaten 8l in a handicap at Windsor last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; effective at 5/6f, acts on yielding, good to firm and AW; worth a shot at 7f here. |

Zero Carbon has won here four times over this trip, all of them off far higher marks, and although he hasn't been at his best for a while, Billy Loughnane takes the ride and may yet reinvigorate the seven-year-old. Red Hat Eagle has been knocking on the door, with a third at Thirsk his latest placed effort, but so does STRONG VOICE, who is long overdue a victory. Headed close home when second at Lingfield, a slightly more patient ride could finally see success.

2nd (5) (11/2 -22%)Quatre Bras |
11/2(-22%) | (5) Quatre Bras 11/2, Stark return to form and winning ways landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; effective 8-12f, acts on soft, good and AW; chance to follow up back up in trip despite revised mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (13/2 +13%)Poetic Sound |
13/2(+13%) | (1) Poetic Sound 13/2, Ran to the balance of form, better than the bare result beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Leopardstown last time; trainer in form; effective 12-16f, suited by plenty of give but acts on good; generally consistent, should run well again off easing mark. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (6/1 -33%)Tribal Star |
6/1(-33%) | (4) Tribal Star 6/1, Ran to current level beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Listowel last time; top course trainer; effective up to 16f, suited by cut on turf but better on AW; 6lb below last winning mark, but needs more. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/4 +8%)Touch The Moon |
11/4(+8%) | (3) Touch The Moon 11/4, Scored by 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here penultimate start; ran to the balance of form eighth beaten 4l off 91 last time, same mark here; effective 10-16f, acts on sound surface; tough and versatile sort, should remain competitive. |

TOUCH THE MOON gets the vote in a tricky contest. The Sea The Stars gelding run well for a long way in a valuable handicap at Doncaster last month, having won here previously, and is taken to reverse earlier running at the Curragh with the winner Fixation. The latter has scored again since and wasn't disgraced in a premier handicap last time, while Quatre Bras won here a fortnight ago though faces a tougher task from 2lb out of the handicap.

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.
