1st (12) (6/1 +50%)Cliff Danger |
6/1(+50%) | (12) Cliff Danger 6/1, Bit below best again at a mile beaten 8l in a handicap here last time; effective 10f, acts on good to soft; more needed up in trip on second handicap start. Best novice effort when fourth over 1m2f at Nottingham on second start, making most; never-dangerous ninth of 14 when 16-1 for handicap debut here six weeks ago but that was over just 1m, whereas his dam was a useful bumper and 1m6f Flat winner; stepped up markedly to 1m4f, he could now be a great deal more interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (11/8 +54%)Astrological |
11/8(+54%) | (11) Astrological 11/8, Ran to form landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Windsor last time; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 10-12f, acts on good to firm and AW; more to come from this unexposed sort despite revised mark. Won a 9.4f maiden at Wolverhampton (Tapeta) in April and over 11.4f on turf at Windsor in June in his second handicap; that's two wins from four starts and that latest performance was encouraging for this second crack at 1m4f; 3yo to consider seriously.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (13/2 -30%)Domination |
13/2(-30%) | (10) Domination 13/2, Scored by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Doncaster penultimate start; ran to form third beaten 3 1/2l off 77 last time, same mark here; effective 8-10f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; can go well again. 2-4 for this yard with narrow wins at Ripon (1m) and Doncaster (1m2f); another creditable effort over 1m2f last time; needs to resume improvement, which may be possible as he's just a 3yo but he's not bred for this new trip; it's also his AW debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (11/2 +15%)Yaa Min |
11/2(+15%) | (3) Yaa Min 11/2, Ran to form beaten 2l off this mark at Kempton last time; effective 12-16f, acts on good to soft, good and AW; in excellent form and still on a competitive mark. Two wins this year over 1m4f on Lingfield Polytrack, dictating the pace on second occasion; good third at Kempton (also 1m4f on Polytrack) on latest start, which gives him each-way claims if it's transferred to Tapeta.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (13/2 -44%)Wonder |
13/2(-44%) | (1) Wonder 13/2, Ran to form but looked in need of stiffer test 6l third in a handicap at Lingfield most recent run; returning from a break; effective 12-16f, acts on AW, good to firm; consistent, leading chance again. 3-15 on AW (last two wins were at this track) compared to 0-4 on turf; in good form at 1m4f on AW initially this year, including a second under Taryn Langley; there was a dip in April when last seen but it's easy to see him returning in a major role for his in-form yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (7/1 +61%)Jindri |
7/1(+61%) | (7) Jindri 7/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Newcastle most recent; effective at 10-12f, acts on sound surface; needs more at this level. Won off this mark over C\u0026D last November; that's her only win from nine races and she was well beaten when 28-1 under 7lb claimer at Newcastle (Tapeta) last time, but her stable is in good form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (50/1 -100%)Bondi |
50/1(-100%) | (5) Bondi 50/1, Never dangerous comfortably held in a handicap at Kempton last time; returning from long layoff; suited by 12f and fast ground; competitive mark, form in and out. Won two handicaps over about 1m4f last summer, in a mixed record; one of the lesser efforts was his AW debut (Kempton Polytrack) when last seen; left Richard Hannon for 20,000gns last October and this is his first run since (gelded in interim).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (33/1 -267%)Gallant Lion |
33/1(-267%) | (9) Gallant Lion 33/1, Scored by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Brighton penultimate start; ran to form up in class fourth beaten 2 1/2l off 69 last time, same mark here; off a short-break; effective 10-16f, acts on any; chance again if building on recent efforts. Back to some form over 1m4f on turf on last two starts; 0-11 on AW, however, with two places but they were on Polytrack.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (66/1 -164%)Motazzen |
66/1(-164%) | (6) Motazzen 66/1, Won this last year; mistakes, race may have come a bit soon when fourth beaten 25l in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton latest; off a short-break; effective 12-20f on the Flat, acts on most; mark could still be stiff in this sphere, needs more.. 50-1 winner of this race last year off 4lb lower; following 228 days off; 10l winner over hurdles this March, followed by two modest shows in May; had wind operation (his second) in July and needs a second look.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (22/1 -175%)Typical Woman |
22/1(-175%) | (8) Typical Woman 22/1, No obvious excuse beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; off a short-break; effective 10f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; fair mark but needs to bounce back. Has the same mark as when winning at Lingfield (1m1f, good to firm) almost exactly one year ago, on her final start last season and the last time she was ridden by Billy Loughnane; that was her fifth career win, and she stays 1m4f and used to look effective on Tapeta but a revival is needed on this first run since May.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (66/1 -65%)Mehmas Champion |
66/1(-65%) | (2) Mehmas Champion 66/1, Below form, out of depth down the field in a handicap at Redcar most recent; off a short-break; effective 7/8f, acts on heavy and good; ex-German, all to prove after three poor efforts in Britain. Fourth in the German 2,000 Guineas (1m, good) in May 2025 on his third start; however, absent for a year afterwards and he's been way below that form in his three starts for new yard this year, tenth of 11 on handicap debut last time; goes beyond 1m for the first time and, although he's by a speed influence, his dam was a good 1m-12.5f winner.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (100/1 -300%)Naples |
100/1(-300%) | (4) Naples 100/1, Found little, below form tried in cheekpieces beaten 10l in a handicap at Carlisle last time; off a short-break; effective 1m-10f, acts on heavy and good; bounce back needed. Dam 1m3f winner; 1m, heavy-ground maiden winner last September for Paddy Twomey; after his four 1m/1m2f handicaps for current yard this term, trying cheekpieces last time, others bring much more persuasive claims.. |

Astrological should be a key player if coping with a 6lb rise for his Windsor success, while Domination and Yaa Min are consistent types to also monitor in the betting market. The top of the shortlist, however, is reserved for WONDER, who seems to reserve his best for racing at this venue and this previous C&D winner may be able to stamp his authority in a race where previous Southwell winners are thin on the ground.

1st (7) (10/1 +17%)Howlin Wolf |
10/1(+17%) | (7) Howlin Wolf 10/1, Below form of second start when fourth beaten 8l in a maiden at Bellewstown latest; wide draw; pedigree all speed, acts on good; more needed on handicap debut. Long odds for first two starts and soundly beaten; Bellewstown fourth was a step in the right direction; others have more convincing claims. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7/2 +56%)I Ready |
7/2(+56%) | (1) I Ready 7/2, Scored by a head off a 7lb lower mark here penultimate start; ran about to form fourth beaten 7l off 82 last time, same mark here; blinkers first time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; more needed off this tough mark. Reacted well to the addition of cheekpieces when a narrow winner from Seven Nation Army in a C\u0026D nursery; raised 7lb and was almost 2l behind Battle Of The Boyne when fourth in the Galway race won by Seven Nation Army; blinkered this time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (9/2 -50%)Mr Montauk |
9/2(-50%) | (9) Mr Montauk 9/2, Yard has won 2 of last 9 runnings of race; ran to form beaten 3 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark at Sligo last time; effective 5/6f, acts on yielding and good; progressive since handicapping and can open account now. Three qualifying runs over 5f, all within the space of three weeks in April/May; sent off second-favourite for a 5f Down Royal nursery last month, got outpaced and then hampered at a crucial stage when staying on; chased home a strongly fancied rival from the Paddy Twomey stable at Sligo, good chance he can go one better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (7/2 -5%)Banks Of The Boyne |
7/2(-5%) | (2) Banks Of The Boyne 7/2, Yard has won 2 of last 9 runnings of race; ran to form when second beaten 5l in a nursery at Galway latest; effective 6/7f, acts on yielding and good; more to come in handicaps. Showed little on his first two starts; was able to dictate in a 6f Fairyhouse maiden and gave a much-improved display to take second; no match for a Joseph O'Brien-trained winner at Galway (I Ready back in fourth); might not cope with Mr Montauk now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (14/1 -133%)Alrashdeyah |
14/1(-133%) | (8) Alrashdeyah 14/1, Below form again, wasn't suited by drop to minimal distance well beaten in a maiden at Bellewstown latest; significant jockey booking; effective 6f, acts on soft; notable jockey booking, but needs more on handicap debut. Oisin Murphy booked; hard to take positives from her maiden form; very poor at Bellewstown when last of eight; hood used then is now discarded.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (9/2 +55%)Shesthedevil |
9/2(+55%) | (3) Shesthedevil 9/2, Ran about to form up in grade beaten 10l in Marwell Stakes (Listed) at Naas last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good; not ruled out dropping into calmer waters for handicap debut. Ordinary form in maidens at Listowel and Down Royal; stepped up considerably on those runs to win at Navan on a superb day for her trainer; sights are lowered considerably now following a Listed bid at Naas.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (7/1 +36%)High Morals |
7/1(+36%) | (4) High Morals 7/1, Much below form down the field in an auction race at Galway most recent; sire smart US miler, appears effective 6-8f, acts on good; should be capable of better still, but needs more here. Failed to run to expectations when favourite for a C\u0026D maiden on debut; best of his three outings was over 1m at Bellewstown; this trip may prove inadequate.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (11/1 -10%)Celestial Crown |
11/1(-10%) | (5) Celestial Crown 11/1, Outclassed again beaten 9l in a 2yo race at Cork last time; wide draw; effective 5f, acts on soft and good; drop in class to suit, but needs to bounce back now handicapping. All four runs over 5f; best display on debut when second to the smart Velozee (third in last Sunday's Phoenix Stakes) on soft ground at Cork; subsequent form on good going raises doubts.. |

Badly hampered before running on for third at Down Royal, MR MONTAUK then bumped into a handicap blot when second at Sligo. He's up in grade, but can make the most of bottom weight and his experience will be an asset. Banks Of The Boyne has shown improvement on his last two starts and split a pair of Joseph O'Brien-trained runners when second in a 7f nursery at Galway. Michael Mulvany's juvenile holds C&D nursery winner I Ready on that form. Away And Gone was sent off joint-favourite for her debut and has claims based on her fourth at Navan next time out.

1st (1) (9/2 +55%)Louiescall |
9/2(+55%) | (1) Louiescall 9/2, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap at Galway most recent; progressive at 2m in maiden hurdles on good; more to come judged on staying Flat form. Fair sort on the Flat, winning 1m7f Leopardstown handicap last summer, albeit latest two efforts have been well below his best; 0-6 hurdling, narrowly beaten in C\u0026D maiden at this meeting last year his best effort; chance if returning to that sort of form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (6/4 -20%)Speed For Fun |
6/4(-20%) | (3) Speed For Fun 6/4, Yard has won 3 of last 10 runnings of race; green, mistakes, ran to form behind useful rival when second beaten 11l in a maiden hurdle at Cartmel latest; hood first time; trainer in form; effective 2m1f-2m4f, acts on soft, good; joined top yard from France where a winner on Flat, unlucky on hurdles debut, can make amends. Won on the Flat in France last year (1m2f, soft) and had Listowel maiden hurdle (2m4f, good to yielding) at his mercy before last-flight fall on stable debut in May; clear second to an odds-on shot at Cartmel last month (2m1f), having been clear for much of the way; hood now fitted and likely the one to beat.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (11/4 +45%)Ivatt |
11/4(+45%) | (10) Ivatt 11/4, Ran to form benefitting from drop in class beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Galway last time; effective 12f; consistent maiden on Flat; could make into useful hurdler for top yard. Ghaiyyath 4yo ran to a useful level of form on the Flat last year for Charlie Fellows at around 1m4f; yard debut effort at Galway was respectable, considering he was plenty fresh; interesting now switched to hurdles and one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (14/1 -65%)Penzance |
14/1(-65%) | (2) Penzance 14/1, Never competitive in race dominated from front after series of errors, unsuited by change of tactics down the field in a handicap hurdle at Galway most recent; in good form prior; effective 2m-2m2f over hurdles, acts on sound surface, all wins on AW; progressing and unexposed over hurdles, should find a race soon if resuming positive handling. Not the force of old (one-time useful AW handicapper) but runner-up in modest maiden hurdle company in Britain this summer at Stratford (twice) and after making most (carrying head awkwardly, hung right) at Worcester (2m, good); no show on handicap debut at Galway and back into maiden company probably with a bit to find.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (10/1 +9%)Captain Hanley |
10/1(+9%) | (6) Captain Hanley 10/1, Badly hampered late, ran to form when fourth beaten 16l in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; effective 2-3m over hurdles, acts on sound surface; maiden in both codes but arrives in from and can give a good account. Runner-up in maiden hurdles at Clonmel (2m4f) in May and Punchestown (3m) in June; not so good the last twice back in trip and has it to do here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (33/1 -65%)Bobby Kirova |
33/1(-65%) | (9) Bobby Kirova 33/1, Ran to form comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan last time; effective 2m1f, acts on good; has shown promise both runs so far, bit more needed to get off the mark. Some promise in Flat maidens last year but has been disappointing in handicaps this term; hurdles debut was a bit more encouraging when third in 2m2f Sligo maiden, despite some novicey jumping, but didn't improve at Kilbeggan; drops in trip here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (6/1 -33%)Ballybollen |
6/1(-33%) | (4) Ballybollen 6/1, Travelled, probably hit the front too soon, promising effort 8l fourth in a bumper at Ballinrobe first-time out; effective 2m, acts on good; ran well in a bumper, likely much more to come now hurdling for top stable. Nathaniel half-brother to four winners, notably useful bumper and hurdles performer Mongibello; dam French 1m1f/10.5f winner, half-sister to French 2m5f Grade 3 hurdle winner; beaten favourite but showed some promise on debut in Ballinrobe bumper last month; quickly switches to hurdles.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (150/1 -127%)Cairo King |
150/1(-127%) | (5) Cairo King 150/1, Too green to show anything, probably needed race down the field in a maiden hurdle at Stratford most recent; absent for very lengthy period; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m, acts on good to soft; placed in a bumper, needs to prove ability remains after lay off. Very lightly raced in Britain, initially with Alan King and then in two runs at Stratford for Jamie Snowdon, latter occasion when last in 2m maiden hurdle in May 2024; tongue-tied on debut for Andy Slattery and watching brief advised.. |

It's hard to get away from SPEED FOR FUN, who would have made a winning start for the Willie Mullins yard if he hadn't fallen at the last when four lengths clear at Listowel in May. Second at Cartmel subsequently, a reproduction of that performance will make him very hard to beat. Ballybollen failed to justify favouritism when fourth on his sole bumper start at Ballinrobe, but he could prove a different proposition now sent over timber. Of the remainder, Ivatt makes the most appeal.

1st (9) (6/1 +29%)Heretic |
6/1(+29%) | (9) Heretic 6/1, Ran to level beaten 2l off this mark at Yarmouth last time; off a short-break; effective at 8f, acts well on AW, handles good to soft; 5lb below last winning mark, back in form last couple of outings. First 27 starts came on the AW with three wins, including two over C\u0026D last October; rather patchy this year but he was third of 13 when making his turf debut at Doncaster (7f) in May and probably not discredited in a two-runner turf race in June when last seen; in the mix.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (11/1 +45%)Have You A Minute |
11/1(+45%) | (11) Have You A Minute 11/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; off a short-break; effective 8-10f, suited by AW; 1lb below last winning mark, but form has tailed off. C\u0026D winner in 2024 and scored at Wolverhampton last October; finished last season on a downswing and well beaten at 40-1 for reappearance two months ago, which he might have needed but absent again since; market may guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (20/1 -25%)Splinterwood |
20/1(-25%) | (10) Splinterwood 20/1, Ran about to current level on handicap debut beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; top course trainer; hasn't found suitable conditions; yet to show much ability but unexposed. Accomplished little in three novices, though he did attract the stewards' attention on third start; weakened into ninth of 13 when 22-1 for handicap debut at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on latest outing; all four were on Tapeta; down 2lb but no solid form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (22/1 -10%)Evelyn's Phoenix |
22/1(-10%) | (14) Evelyn's Phoenix 22/1, Another poor effort beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Hamilton last time; effective 8-10f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing, but bounce back needed. 4-29 record includes a Nottingham win (1m) in April on reappearance but he's been out of form in recent outings; now makes his AW debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (8/1 -7%)Barleybrown |
8/1(-7%) | (3) Barleybrown 8/1, Below form well beaten in a handicap at Newcastle latest; off a short-break; suited by 8f, acts on a sound surface; on a competitive mark based on old efforts, can bounce back. The last four of his five wins were over 1m on Newcastle Tapeta (hampered on sole start here); looked an unlucky loser at Newcastle on penultimate start but bled from the nose when a disappointing favourite there on latest; player if straight back to form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (9/2 +25%)Love You More |
9/2(+25%) | (5) Love You More 9/2, Overcame a slow start, hit the line well when winning a classified race at Lingfield by 1/2l last time; usually held up; suited by around 1m, acts on good to soft, good and AW; chance back in a handicap. Benefited from the drop into 0-50 classified company when off the mark at the 14th attempt at Lingfield (1m, Polytrack) five weeks ago; more is needed on this return to a handicap and she has more to prove on Tapeta.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (13) (5/1 +29%)Timebar |
5/1(+29%) | (13) Timebar 5/1, Ran to form when second beaten 1 1/4l in a classified race at Newcastle latest; effective 5-7f, acts on most; can go well again here. 0-18 but second in three of his last four starts; made most on last two occasions, the latest over 7f on Newcastle Tapeta; there's a bit more for him to prove at this track and over 1m.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (125/1 -25%)Muddy Marvellous |
125/1(-25%) | (12) Muddy Marvellous 125/1, Too awkward away form stalls, needs to break better comfortably held in a novice at Newcastle last time; returning from long layoff; speed in pedigree; hard to fancy. Low-level form in all five starts, including one handicap (C\u0026D last October); he was triple-figure odds for all of them, so the market has been a pretty good guide so far; seasonal debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (10/1 -25%)Tardaff |
10/1(-25%) | (1) Tardaff 10/1, Ran to same poor level comfortably held in a handicap at Nottingham last time; effective 7f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; not beaten a rival last three starts, impossible to recommend. Second in two novice/maiden events last year but she's failed to beat a rival in any of her last four starts, including three handicaps this year.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (16/1 +0%)The Spotlight Kid |
16/1(+0%) | (7) The Spotlight Kid 16/1, Bit below form again beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 7/8f, acts on good and AW; more needed. Both AW wins (his latest) were on Kempton Polytrack in November 2024; effective over C\u0026D, edging down the weights and often not far away but others are preferred for win purposes.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (12/1 -20%)Create |
12/1(-20%) | (8) Create 12/1, Returned to form when winning a classified race at Ffos Las by a length last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft and a sound surface; needs to build on latest back in handicaps. Three C\u0026D wins; competitive only twice in 2026 but latest instance saw her register a turf win at Ffos Las (1m) 19 days ago; player if backing that up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (6) (16/1 +27%)Implied Volatility |
16/1(+27%) | (6) Implied Volatility 16/1, Step back in the right direction beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; effective 7-10f, acts on AW; down again in weights but largely struggling. Yet to make the first three after 11 races from 6f to 1m2f; 18lb lower now than on last summer's handicap debut but others are more solid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (4/1 +27%)Ribston Pippin |
4/1(+27%) | (2) Ribston Pippin 4/1, Below form again beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Doncaster last time; effective 8-10f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing, but more needed. No claims from last two starts but he was a C\u0026D winner last December and second over C\u0026D this April, which give him a chance.. |

BARLEYBROWN has been sent off as the favourite for his last two starts and is suggested as a prime contender in a weak event. Although he reportedly bled from the nose after his latest start, the Ruth Carr-trained gelding is too attractively weighted to overlook and must have a live chance off 6lb below his last winning mark. Ribston Pippin, Timebar and Mercurius Power are suggested as others to bear in mind if the market goes against the selection.

1st (11) (11/2 +89%)Fighting Tears |
11/2(+89%) | (11) Fighting Tears 11/2, 27 Mar; 3,000 euros Lucky Vega filly; half-sister to Bouvier, very useful at 7f, and Amergio Vespucci, useful at 1m; dam, American Frolic, smart 7.5-8.5f. Cheap yearling; half-sister by Lucky Vega to a 1m winner; dam a US-Stakes winner from a solid family; plenty of speed in trhe pedigree.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (16) (50/1 -257%)Roeillaun |
50/1(-257%) | (16) Roeillaun 50/1, Improved a little for debut experience beaten 3 1/2l in an auction race at Cork last time; drawn on wing of large field; bred to be suited by 6-7f, acts on good to firm; bit more needed to get off the mark. Plenty of improvement is needed from her opening efforts at Naas and Cork.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

Ninth foal; Kodi Bear filly is a sister to 6f turf Listed/7f AW winner Clounmacon, half-sister to three other winners, including the versatile Nibiru; dam 6f winner, including at two; of some interest.. |

4th (6) (15/2 -67%)Williamsburg |
15/2(-67%) | (6) Williamsburg 15/2, Fair debut at big odds beaten 5l in an auction race at Leopardstown on debut; drawn on wing of large field; effective 7f on good; chance here with improvement likely. Ran green but showed some ability when 5l seventh of 12 on his debut at Leopardstown; improvement is feasible.. |

6th (12) (10/3 +5%)Heart Of You |
10/3(+5%) | (12) Heart Of You 10/3, Not without promise beaten 7l in an auction race at Galway on debut; sire top-class 6f winner; improvement likely and drop in trip might suit. Ran respectably first time out in a 7f maiden at Galway; open to improvement; hard to be sure if drop to 6f will be a help or a hindrance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (5/1 -82%)The Pipeman |
5/1(-82%) | (1) The Pipeman 5/1, Promising runner-up beaten 2 1/4l in an auction race at Navan only start; drawn on wing of large field; sire smart sprinter, effective 6f, acts on good; good chance here with natural progress. Showed strong potential for success in a race like this with a debut second in a 17-runner contest at Navan; winner Shesthedevil will put that form to the test in the opening nursery.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (28/1 -133%)This That |
28/1(-133%) | (2) This That 28/1, Bit below debut form down the field in a maiden at Gowran Park most recent; sire high-class sprinter, effective 6f, acts on good; more needed back down to this trip. First outing at Leopardstown was more encouraging than Wednesday's mid-division Gowran effort; more likely a handicap prospect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (15/8 +58%)Coincidenza |
15/8(+58%) | (10) Coincidenza 15/8, 9 Apr; 200,000gns breeze-up purchase by Ten Sovereigns; half-sister to Mini Cotai, fair at 5f; dam smart at 6f at 2yo; wide draw; notable jockey booking on debut.

200/1(-100%) | (18) Little Diva 200/1, Failed to build on debut down the field in a maiden at Leopardstown most recent; hood first time; trainer in form; wide draw; speed in pedigree; plenty of progress needed. Made late headway from an unpromising position at Bellewstown; well beaten at Leopardstown.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (66/1 -65%)Lion Of Fortune |
66/1(-65%) | (8) Lion Of Fortune 66/1, 3 Apr; Invincible Army colt; dam, Femme Argent, fair at 7f at 2yo; probably best watched on debut. Invincible Army colt has a decent pedigree, from the immediate family of 6f Group 1 winner G Force and US 1m Grade 3 winner Louvain (dam of French 1,000 Guineas winner Flotilla); failed to sell cheaply as a yearling.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (250/1 -67%)The Long Haul |
250/1(-67%) | (9) The Long Haul 250/1, Showed very little well beaten in a maiden at Leopardstown only start; trainer in form; sire effective 6/7f, dam useful around 8-9.5f; impossible to make a case for about debut. Tailed off when the rank outsider of five at Leopardstown last month; can be ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (250/1 -150%)Run Johnny Run |
250/1(-150%) | (5) Run Johnny Run 250/1, Minor improvement from debut down the field in a maiden at Naas most recent; wide draw; sire smart 6/7, dam 11f winner; still requires major progress. Naas run represented an improvement from his debut at Navan, a lot more progress needed.. |

14th (19) (25/1 +69%)Savannah Sun |
25/1(+69%) | (19) Savannah Sun 25/1, 1 May; Arizona filly; half-sister to Metaphorical, very useful from 7f to 8f; close relative to Froome, useful at 6f, and No Nay Now, useful at 1m; cheekpieces first time.

15th (14) (20/1 -11%)Cromane |
20/1(-11%) | (14) Cromane 20/1, Below debut form well beaten in an auction race at Galway latest; wide draw; probably effective 6f, acts on soft; could bounce back returned to sprinting, but progress needed. Finished behind Heart Of You at Galway on the more recent of two outings; might need to qualify for a handicap mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (13) (80/1 -60%)Mickian Thomas |
80/1(-60%) | (13) Mickian Thomas 80/1, 30 Jan; Alkumait colt; dam, Messa Concertata, useful at 6f at 2yo; probably best left alone on first start. First foal; Alkumait colt, dam 5f winner by Ardan, half-sister to 6f 2yo winner Nifty; others are more likely.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (3) (18/1 -100%)Cat Blade |
18/1(-100%) | (3) Cat Blade 18/1, 20 Jan; £58,000 Caturra gelding; dam, Baileys Liberty, useful at 7f; not without a chance on debut. GBP58,000 Y; first foal; dam 7f winner, half-sister to several winners; speedy pedigree, could go well on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (4) (300/1 -275%)Closed Loop |
300/1(-275%) | (4) Closed Loop 300/1, Poor again down the field in an auction race at Sligo most recent; pedigree all speed; has beaten one rival in two starts, all to prove. Has finished in front of only one of his 27 rivals in races at Naas and Sligo.. |

THE PIPEMAN represents a respected stable and made a promising debut at Navan when runner-up in a 17-runner contest. He can come forward enough to take this, despite the fact that he has to give weight to most of his rivals. Heart Of You showed up well for a long way when fifth over 7f at Galway and may benefit from dropping back in trip. Kindacan is a sister to Clounmacon, who was a Listed winner over this trip three years ago for Johnny Murtagh. By Middle Park and July Cup winner Ten Sovereigns, and out of a 6f two-year-old winner, Coincidenza was bought for 200,000gns at the Craven Breeze-Up Sale in April.

1st (4) (3/1 +0%)Ina Mina |
3/1(+0%) | (4) Ina Mina 3/1, Still green and wandered in front, improved for better ground and positive ride down in class on handicap debut landing a handicap by 3l off a 13lb lower mark at Cork last time; effective 2m1f on heavy and good; middle distance Flat winner, more to come handicapping now she's had her head in front. A wide-margin Flat winner here in 2025 got off the mark over hurdles on return at Cork last time, still showing greenness; a 13lb hike is plenty but has to be considered with more to come.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (4/1 +53%)Lanzhou |
4/1(+53%) | (9) Lanzhou 4/1, Ran to form well beaten in a handicap hurdle here latest; effective 2 1/2m; major improvement needed to defy this mark. Second runner for yard; some promise in points; modest in maiden hurdles but travelled strongly before weakening over 2m5f on handicap debut here three days ago; this trip can suite better, notable jockey booking so one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (20/1 +0%)Colesberg |
20/1(+0%) | (6) Colesberg 20/1, Outpaced, needed stiffer test well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; off a short-break; acts on soft; longer trip should suit but opening mark demands improvement. The best of four maiden hurdle runs came at Kilbeggan last time; can do better now in handicaps and local yard targets this meeting so is worth checking the market.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (16/1 -78%)Doctor Confusion |
16/1(-78%) | (3) Doctor Confusion 16/1, Needed run well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe latest; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m, acts on soft; with top yard but has clearly had issues. Showed glimpses of promise in maidens but has been poor in two handicap starts; can't be ruled out from this top yard but a tongue-tie will have to make a significant difference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (20/1 +20%)Pahlavi |
20/1(+20%) | (5) Pahlavi 20/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Sligo latest; cheekpieces first time; suited by 2m on good; dropping in weights but needs more. Has been badly regressive over hurdles this year and was withdrawn on the Flat recently after being unruly before the start; not easy to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (16) (80/1 -60%)Maxios Lady |
80/1(-60%) | (16) Maxios Lady 80/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Listowel latest where jumped poorly; returning from long layoff; usually held up; yet to show anything; looks in need of more experience and further than 2m. Showed little in maidens and was pulled-up on handicap debut at Listowel last year so not easy to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (15) (9/1 +59%)Doyen Og |
9/1(+59%) | (15) Doyen Og 9/1, Every chance, below form well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m; inconsistent. Maiden has run well enough last two starts with blinkers added but has to find more down 1lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (13/2 0%)Annie's Angel |
13/2(0%) | (2) Annie's Angel 13/2, Below form back on the Flat beaten 10l in a handicap at Galway last time; effective 2m over hurdles, acts with cut and on good; unexposed over hurdles but running into form. Won as a 2yo on the Flat; some decent efforts in defeat mixing both codes lately but needs to find more on this second handicap hurdle start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (12/1 +57%)Vairue |
12/1(+57%) | (11) Vairue 12/1, Fell in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; ran well for a long way on reappearance previously; effective 2m, acts on good; form in and out prior to absence, should come on for latest completed start. Sole hurdle win came in 2022; not many runs since and fell early at Cork last time; isn't high on the list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (8) (10/1 -33%)Truckers Cruising |
10/1(-33%) | (8) Truckers Cruising 10/1, May have found ground on the quick side beaten 7 1/4l in a claiming hurdle at Sligo last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts with cut; fair mark but trip and ground concerns here. A heavy ground chase winner last winter ran one of his best hurdle races at this track in 2024; not a bad run in a claimer last time and could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (5/1 +17%)Surviving Murmansk |
5/1(+17%) | (14) Surviving Murmansk 5/1, Won this last year; ran to form on quick reappearance beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan last time; doesn't stay further than 2m, acts on good; on last winning mark and has run back into form. Sole win came in this race last year off the same mark; not bad efforts at Cork and Kilbeggan lately so has to enter calculations back at this venue.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (28/1 0%)Owl's Delight |
28/1(0%) | (10) Owl's Delight 28/1, Outpaced, mistakes, below form up in class comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Wexford last time; top course trainer; effective 2 1/2m but breeding suggests 2m may suit better; inconsistent in maidens, needs more now handicapping. Well beaten in a bumper and four maiden hurdles but should do better now in handicaps.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (16/1 -14%)Depeche Mo |
16/1(-14%) | (13) Depeche Mo 16/1, Ran to form beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; off a long absence; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on soft and good; form tailed off before absence. Maiden in all spheres has been placed a few times but is coming back from a layoff so others are preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (7) (20/1 -67%)Glendower |
20/1(-67%) | (7) Glendower 20/1, Ran to form comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; effective 2m; looks flattered by maiden outlier. Maiden under both codes has been running well enough in defeat lately but he has run poorly both starts at this course so questions in that respect.. |

Annie's Angel's last two efforts in this discipline suggest that a race of this nature is within her compass and she merits respect after her latest spin on the Flat, but the vote goes to INA MINA. Terence O'Brien's mare benefited from a change of tactics when making every yard of the running to score at Cork on her return to the fray and, if in similar form, she will prove a tough nut to crack. Last year's victor Surviving Murmansk completes the shortlist.

1st (1) (2/11 +59%)Palladas |
2/11(+59%) | (1) Palladas 2/11, Travelled best, quickened away takingly on very promising debut 3l winner in a maiden at Kempton on debut; trainer in form; effective 1m, will stay further, acts on AW; smart prospect. 750,000gns yearling by Lope De Vega; 6-5 for his debut in a 12-runner maiden at Kempton (1m, AW) in January and came from midfield to stride clear; the next two in that race have done well since; off 200 days but one of the two leading contenders on form and probably an exciting prospect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (22/1 -10%)Mercantile |
22/1(-10%) | (7) Mercantile 22/1, Night Of Thunder gelding; half-brother to Theory Of Tides, very useful at 10f; dam high-class at 5f; probably best watched on debut. Third foal; Night Of Thunder half-brother to winners Theory Of Tides (1m2f/11.4f; RPR 100) and Regalian (7f AW; 90); dam Australian 5f/6f winner (including 2yo Group 3; 108), sister to Australian 5f Group 2 winner; needs a check but probably finds himself in a warm race for debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (10/1 +29%)Star Of The Desert |
10/1(+29%) | (9) Star Of The Desert 10/1, Below debut form when fourth beaten 10l in a novice at Carlisle latest; effective 1m, acts on AW; needs to prove not flattered by first start. 50-1 second of 13 in C\u0026D novice in June, always prominent, but his fourth of six at Carlisle (1m, good to firm) three weeks later was well below that form; a major contender if reverting to his debut form and his sire was a US dirt performer, so the return to AW may well suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (25/1 -108%)Salvezza |
25/1(-108%) | (8) Salvezza 25/1, Poor beaten 8 1/4l in a novice at Nottingham on debut; sire useful sprinter and stayed a mile; plenty of progress needed. 9-2, very green early on in a novice at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) 17 days ago and left himself with a lot to do, unable to pass any of his four rivals; should do better but no claims yet.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (14/1 -75%)Blue Boy Junior |
14/1(-75%) | (5) Blue Boy Junior 14/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 4 1/2l in a novice at Carlisle latest; off a short-break; effective 7f, bred to be a miler, acts on soft and good; should still have natural progression. Fair form when fourth at Thirsk (7f, good) and Carlisle (7f, soft) this spring, with the latter suggesting that 1m would help; however, much better is needed if he's to overturn today's form principals.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (9/2 +10%)Assiri Heights |
9/2(+10%) | (4) Assiri Heights 9/2, Well beaten on debut, market expected much more well beaten in a novice at Salisbury only start; returning from long layoff; Frankel colt, dam useful sprinter; surely capable of better for top connections, but plenty of progress needed up in trip. 700,000gns yearling by Frankel; dam 5f/6f winner (including Listed; RPR 109); rather slowly into his stride on his way to a 20l defeat in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) last July; presumably showed a lot more at home prior to that, as he started 5-4 favourite, and it will be interesting to see if his backers go in again on this belated return.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (300/1 -200%)Wyvill |
300/1(-200%) | (10) Wyvill 300/1, Ran about to debut level comfortably held in a maiden at Wolverhampton last time; sire effective 6-8f, dam fair around 7/8f; looks a no hoper again. Low-level form when 150-1 and slowly away at Leicester (1m, good) and Wolverhampton (9.4f, AW), so he looks one for handicaps in due course.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (250/1 -150%)Cullinan Wolf |
250/1(-150%) | (2) Cullinan Wolf 250/1, Failed to build on debut well beaten in a maiden at Wolverhampton latest; pedigree a mix of speed and stamina; plenty to find based on first two starts. 16-1 and 200-1 when behind at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) and Wolverhampton (7f, AW) this summer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (150/1 -50%)Jetpack Jimmy |
150/1(-50%) | (6) Jetpack Jimmy 150/1, Poor well beaten in a novice at Newcastle only start; off a short-break; sire high-class across a range of trips, winning at 6f and then the Derby, dam effective over middle distances; likely to want further in time. 66-1, always behind in novice at Newcastle (7f, AW) in June; has an extra 1f today but is bred for markedly further.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (500/1 -233%)Wats On Tiger |
500/1(-233%) | (3) Wats On Tiger 500/1, Very poor well beaten in a maiden at Beverley only start; off a short-break; sire useful sprinter; impossible to make a case for. Remote when 500-1 at Beverley (7.4f, good) in June, blowing the start.. |

PALLADAS clocked fast fractions in the closing stages on his winning debut at Kempton and the son of Lope De Vega may well prove to be above average. He is hard to ignore, despite a 200-day absence. Star Of The Desert has shown enough to suggest that he can pick up a race before long and also merits respect. However, the well-bred Assiri Heights, who cost 700,000gns as a yearling, is surely better than he showed on debut and may be a bigger danger to the selection.

5/1(+44%) | (6) Comfort Line 5/1, Ran to form up in trip beaten 4l off this mark at Leopardstown last time; effective 7/9f, acts with cut, on good and AW; consistent, chance again here. A winner of seven races on AW and three on turf; last turf success was in 2022, but this season's overall form provided a fair amount of encouragement; a three-time runner-up at this venue, including in June; had plenty of horses behind him at Leopardstown ten days ago.. |

2nd (11) (12/1 -9%)Avec Grand Plaisir |
12/1(-9%) | (11) Avec Grand Plaisir 12/1, Ran to form beaten 6 1/4l in a claimer at Sligo last time; effective 8f, sees out 10f, acts on yielding and good; return to a mile might suit, but more needed still. Ordinary form in maidens; stayed on for third over this trip at Cork in June on his handicap debut; failed to stay the extended 1m2f in a recent Sligo claimer.. |

3rd (8) (11/1 -10%)Sherekiya |
11/1(-10%) | (8) Sherekiya 11/1, Ran to same level beaten 3l off this mark at Naas last time; trainer in form; wide draw; effective 1m, acts on heavy; from good yard, should be capable of more, might do better now handicapping. Ran respectably in three decent maidens over a mile last year; should be better for her handicap/seasonal debut over 7f at Naas; this extra furlong should suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (14/1 +22%)Kitty Bear |
14/1(+22%) | (3) Kitty Bear 14/1, Struggled again down the field in a handicap at Galway most recent; wide draw; effective 7-9f, acts on soft, good and AW; mark still looks to be on stiff side. Three wins this year; unplaced in four outings since a Roscommon victory in May; needs to show signs of a return to form before being a betting proposition again.. |

5th (7) (18/1 +0%)Pallatine Hills |
18/1(+0%) | (7) Pallatine Hills 18/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Leopardstown most recent; effective 8-10f, acts with cut; needs to bounce back. Placed only once from 13 starts, may have needed a recent run after a break; not the most consistent type.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (7/2 +42%)Neo Smart |
7/2(+42%) | (2) Neo Smart 7/2, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Gowran Park last time; effective 7/8f, probably stays 10f, acts on good and AW; back on last winning turf mark and should be competitive again. Two wins on AW, 1-30 turf record is a negative; respectable form lately; not a lost cause judged on her fourth in a 20-runner C\u0026D event and same placing at Gowran nine days ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (17/2 -6%)Bundle Of Interest |
17/2(-6%) | (1) Bundle Of Interest 17/2, Came on from seasonal reappearance beaten 4l off this mark at Gowran Park last time; effective 7-8f, acts on heavy and good; just a couple of lbs above last winning mark, but needs to improve again. 6f winner last year; never involved on seasonal return at Naas in May; met trouble in running at Gowran nine days ago, when Neo Smart finished three places ahead of her; contender now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (11/2 +45%)Tofino |
11/2(+45%) | (4) Tofino 11/2, Won this last year; below best again beaten 7l in a handicap at Killarney last time; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and good; still 3lb above last summer's C&D win. Recorded her sole success in this race last season; also ran well when third in a 26-runner contest here late last season; uneven form this term; stable has hit a good patch of form this week; worth considering.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (15) (8/1 -23%)Alto Sax |
8/1(-23%) | (15) Alto Sax 8/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off a 8lb lower mark at Fairyhouse in June; ran to form fifth beaten 2l off 50 last time, 2lb higher here; effective 7-10f, acts on sound surface; in form and remains well treated on old efforts, can go well again back down to a mile. Winner this year over 1m at Dundalk and 1m2f at Fairyhouse in June; good form in defeat over 1m1f at Leopardstown, beaten a neck in a 22-runner contest; fair run over a longer trip last time, this may be closer to his best distance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (13/2 -8%)Ella's Gold |
13/2(-8%) | (13) Ella's Gold 13/2, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb lower mark at Roscommon last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 7-10f, acts with cut and on good; maiden who has gone close several times now, chance again. Placed in all but one of her five handicap starts; capable of winning one with just a little improvement; the addition of cheekpieces could perhaps make the difference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (18/1 -13%)Lamberella |
18/1(-13%) | (9) Lamberella 18/1, Returned to best when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Limerick latest; effective 7-12f, acts on yielding and good; still needs a good bit more. Moderate form in her three handicap outings; hard to identify her optimum distance; others are more appealing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (5) (125/1 -213%)Marambo |
125/1(-213%) | (5) Marambo 125/1, Much below form on handicap and turf debut down the field in a handicap at Killarney most recent; effective at 8-10f, acts on AW; all to prove after latest. Fair AW form late last year; 40-1 and ran accordingly on handicap/turf/seasonal debut at Killarney last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (16/1 -14%)Dinamine |
16/1(-14%) | (10) Dinamine 16/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Naas penultimate start; ran about to form, better than bare result seventh beaten 2l off 59 last time, same mark here; wide draw; effective 7/8f, acts with cut, on good and AW; in good form, but mark might be stiff. Took a long time to win a race; scored twice last season and added another win last month in first-time cheekpieces, overcoming a slow start to score over this trip at Naas; had a troubled passage and found 7f a bit sharp at Galway.. |

A course winner over 7f last term, NEO SMART generally goes well at this venue and seems to be running into form. Fourth over C&D on Derby weekend, she filled the same position when finishing strongly in a slowly-run contest at Gowran Park last time. Second at Limerick in June, Tofino won this last year and is only 3lb higher for her repeat bid. Runner-up in two nurseries last term, Ella's Gold has been placed over longer trips on her last two outings. The pick of her form is on a soft surface, but she handled good ground when third over an extended 1m2f at Roscommon.

1st (10) (5/6 -56%)Lady Lena |
5/6(-56%) | (10) Lady Lena 5/6, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; ran to form when second beaten a head in a Mares bumper at Wexford latest; trainer in form; returning from long layoff; effective at 2m, acts on yielding; more to come now upped in trip over hurdles. Solid efforts in bumpers at Listowel and Wexford last autumn, beaten a head on latter occasion, both over 2m; is likely to be well prepared for this return and has the stamina in her pedigree for this trip; a major player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (5/1 +55%)Market Ready |
5/1(+55%) | (5) Market Ready 5/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Killarney latest where went too fast and failed to stay 2 1/2m; effective 2m, acts on sound surface and soft; debut form has been franked and running well until latest. Has posted several solid efforts in defeat over hurdles, with best form coming at Clonmel; however, was pulled-up in a tongue-tie at Killarney last time but that is left off today so can rebound.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (9/2 -50%)Something Fabulous |
9/2(-50%) | (1) Something Fabulous 9/2, Outpaced, needed run well beaten in Total Enjoyment Mares Flat Race (Listed) at Fairyhouse latest; returning from a break; effective 2m on good; form franked, may have more to offer now hurdling. Runner-up on sole point start before winning a 2m bumper at this meeting last year on second rules start; was poor in soft ground in a Listed bumper on sole 2026 run but has to be respected back here on hurdles debut on good ground; penalised 8lb, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (9/2 +44%)Goodmancon |
9/2(+44%) | (3) Goodmancon 9/2, Jumped abysmally, outpaced, conceded first run 17l third in a maiden hurdle at Roscommon most recent run; effective around 2-2 1/2m, acts on yielding and good; in good form but does have jumping issues. Ran well at times in bumpers without winning, including here; some solid efforts in four maiden hurdles but has fallen once and didn't jump that well last time so needs to do better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (25/1 +62%)Eyecanboogie |
25/1(+62%) | (8) Eyecanboogie 25/1, Unseated in a maiden hurdle at Killarney latest; yet to show anything in bumpers or over hurdles; all to prove for now. Modest form in bumpers and three maiden hurdles so handicaps will suit better after today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (40/1 +0%)South Of Killerig |
40/1(+0%) | (6) South Of Killerig 40/1, Pulled up in a maiden at Ballingarry latest; cheekpieces first time; returning from a break; effective 2 1/4-2 1/2m; unexposed over hurdles but struggling in points this year. Has shown some ability in bumpers and maiden hurdles but has been pulled-up in two points this year; has to return to best for a new yard with cheekpieces added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (100/1 +20%)Flowing Fast |
100/1(+20%) | (9) Flowing Fast 100/1, Keen, poor hurdle debut down the field in a maiden hurdle at Cork most recent; showed little in points prior to that; hard to fancy. Second runner for yard; didn't progress in seven points and well beaten at Cork on hurdling debut so best watched today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (11/1 +50%)Ajp Falco |
11/1(+50%) | (2) Ajp Falco 11/1, Found nil comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Cork last time; effective up to 3m; jumping an issue in short career. Ran well enough before falling in a 3m Punchestown maiden hurdle two starts ago but was well beaten at Cork since; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (125/1 +0%)Thelittleredfox |
125/1(+0%) | (11) Thelittleredfox 125/1, Pulled way to front, did too much too soon well beaten in a Mares bumper at Killarney only start; all to prove starting out over hurdles. Well beaten in a Killarney bumper on debut and can only be watched for the time being.. |

LADY LENA wasn't able to land cramped odds when beaten a head into second in a bumper at Wexford last October, but she now makes her hurdling debut and could prove a cut above these. Goodmancon didn't convince with his jumping when third at Roscommon and will be looking for a smoother round if he wants to get into contention, while connections of L'as De Watt reach for a first-time tongue-tie in the hope of bringing out some improvement.

1st (2) (4/6 -33%)Prosperity |
4/6(-33%) | (2) Prosperity 4/6, Promising 2l winner in a novice at Ripon on debut; sire smart 8-12f, dam 10f winner, effective 8f, might want further with time, effective good to firm; can follow up here with more to come. Half-sister to the yard's smart Native Warrior; odds-on when defying greenness at Ripon 20 days ago (1m) and that was promising, for all that the second has since extended her losing streak to six; clear claims with improvement on the cards.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (6/4 +57%)Al Jolson |
6/4(+57%) | (4) Al Jolson 6/4, 260,000gns Night Of Thunder gelding; half-brother to Nashid, useful at 8f; dam smart at 10f; trainer in form; chance on debut for yard that does will with juveniles. Night Of Thunder newcomer out of a Frankel mare who won over 1m2f on the AW (RPR 95); has been gelded but he cost 260,000gns as a yearling and is of obvious interest, all the more so if strong in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (17/2 -13%)Savile Row |
17/2(-13%) | (8) Savile Row 17/2, Ran to form 2 1/2l third in a maiden at Naas most recent run; visor first time; returning from long layoff; effective 6f, acts with cut; ex-Ballydoyle, still a maiden, first run since wind op, capable of winning a race soon. Showed a consistent level of form in four defeats (6f-7f) for Aidan O'Brien, whom he left for 24,000gns; has definite form claims but he's undergone wind surgery, sports new headgear (tried blinkers on second run) and has been off since October; market confidence would be welcomed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (25/1 +24%)Elite Approach |
25/1(+24%) | (6) Elite Approach 25/1, Green early, finished well, modest debut 9l fourth in a novice here first-time out; returning from a break; effective 6f; should improve for initial experience. Out the back early before staying on to some effect when fourth of nine over 6f here in April; there's some ability lurking but he'd be a surprise winner of this.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (33/1 +34%)Electric Gambler |
33/1(+34%) | (5) Electric Gambler 33/1, Poor well beaten in a novice at Windsor only start; off a short-break; sire smart 7/8f; plenty of progress needed. Also tongue tied at Windsor (1m) where he was slowly away and always in rear; went off 33-1; no appeal after that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (28/1 -40%)Peaceful Spirit |
28/1(-40%) | (3) Peaceful Spirit 28/1, Improved from debut for experience when fourth beaten 1 1/4l in a maiden here latest; off a long absence; effective 7/8f, acts on good to firm and AW; can go well again with further progress likely. She wasn't far away in a C\u0026D maiden on second run in April 2025 on what proved her final race for Karl Burke; left that yard for 2,000gns.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (80/1 -60%)Majestic Ruler |
80/1(-60%) | (7) Majestic Ruler 80/1, Very poor well beaten in a maiden at Newbury only start; off a short-break; sire top-class sprinter; more needed stepped up to a mile. 220,000gns yearling but didn't last long with Karl Burke, for whom he was tailed off in his only run over 6f at Newbury; gelded since changing hands for 5,000gns; can only be watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (200/1 -33%)My Prerogative |
200/1(-33%) | (11) My Prerogative 200/1, Another poor effort comfortably held in a maiden at Nottingham last time; sire top-class sprinter, dam effective 6f; all to prove. Down the field in one run over 6f for Ed Walker and tailed off over Nottingham's 1m on recent yard debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (125/1 +17%)Ze Gucci Poochie |
125/1(+17%) | (10) Ze Gucci Poochie 125/1, Poor well beaten in a maiden here only start; speed-bred, sire useful sprinter, dam 5f winner, half-brother to several 5f winners; step up to a mile highly unlikely to suit. 300-1 when beaten 25l over 7f here last month.. |

PROSPERITY made a winning debut over this trip at Ripon last month, despite showing signs of inexperience. She should be a lot wiser for that experience and Karl Burke's filly is taken to defy a penalty and go in again. The Night Of Thunder newcomer Al Jolson cost 260,000gns as a yearling and could prove competitive with the Crisfords' yard in top form, while both Peaceful Spirit and Savile Row are worth noting on their stable/seasonal debuts.

1st (10) (6/4 -36%)Zarak Pasha |
6/4(-36%) | (10) Zarak Pasha 6/4, Built on debut promise when second beaten 3/4l in a maiden at Galway latest; effective 8f, likely to get further, acts on yielding and good; another good chance here with further progress likely for top yard. A 75,000gns breeze-up purchase in April and from a middle-distance family; recovered from a slow start to run well over 1m on debut at Killarney; picked up useful experience behind an Aidan O'Brien-trained favourite at Galway and had 4l to spare over today's rival Thomas Chippendale; the selected of a stable quartet.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (13/2 +46%)Dancinginthecity |
13/2(+46%) | (3) Dancinginthecity 13/2, 6 Mar; 140,000 euros Saxon Warrior colt; half-brother to Riviera Queen, smart at 12f; dam smart at 12f; top trainer; not ruled out on debut, but appears to be top yard's second string. E140,000 yearling; fourth foal; half-brother by Saxon Warrior to three winners who stayed middle distances effectively; dam Listed-placed winner on the Flat and useful 2m hurdle winner, sister to German 1m3f Group 3 winner Pagera.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (25/1 +0%)Breath Of Paradise |
25/1(+0%) | (2) Breath Of Paradise 25/1, Modest 12l fourth in a maiden here first-time out; off a short-break; sire top-class sprinter; needs a lot more up in trip on second start. E120,000 Breeze Up purchase; already looked in need of further when a remote fourth over 7f at this venue on debut; likely to be capable of improvement from the experience gained then.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (25/1 -127%)Albany County |
25/1(-127%) | (1) Albany County 25/1, 6 Feb; 420,000 euros Camelot colt; half-brother to Mother Earth, top-class at 8f; dam high-class at 9f; top course trainer; top trainer; every chance on debut for top connections. E420,000 F; eleventh foal; half-brother by Camelot to seven winners, including 1,000 Guineas winner Mother Earth and Pattern scorers Ocean Jewel and Night Colours; dam a Listed winner by Green Desert; one of three runners for the stable, good apprentice aboard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (16/1 +0%)Angels Have Wings |
16/1(+0%) | (11) Angels Have Wings 16/1, 4 Mar; Camelot filly; full-sister to Sir Lamorak, smart at 12f; dam very smart at 5f at 2yo; tough enough task on debut, others preferred for these connections. Eighth foal; Camelot filly is a sister to middle-distance winner Sir Lamorak, half-sister to winners A New Dawn (Group-placed 6f 2yo) and Jewelry (6f 2yo); dam 5f 2yo winner, half-sister to 1m4f Group 1 winner Bracelet.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (11/8 +59%)Thomas Chippendale |
11/8(+59%) | (8) Thomas Chippendale 11/8, Promising third beaten 5l in a maiden at Galway debut; sire high-class 8-14.5f; should have more to come as goes up in distances for top yard. E300,000 yearling was the stable's second-string when third of four at Galway; finished 4l behind Zarak Pasha; may be capable of narrowing that gap with experience under his belt; from the Galileo/Sea The Stars family, so the extra distance can only help.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (50/1 -257%)Tommy Quick |
50/1(-257%) | (9) Tommy Quick 50/1, 10 Mar; American Pharoah colt; half-brother to For The Flag, useful at 1m; dam, Battle Flag, useful at 1m; probably best watched on debut. Fifth foal; half-brother to US 1m turf winner For The Flag; dam runner-up 1m in France and US, sister to winners Civil Union (US 1m2f Grade 1) and War Dispatch (French 1m1f Group 3), out of unraced half-sister to HK 1m4f Group 1 winner Line Of Battle.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (14/1 -56%)Palazzo Serristori |
14/1(-56%) | (6) Palazzo Serristori 14/1, 23 Jan; Justify colt; full-brother to Totally Justified, useful 8.5f; half-brother to a couple of winners, including Masteroffoxhounds, smart at 8f; dam very smart at 9f; could content on debut. Fourth foal; brother to US 8.5f turf winner Totally Justified, half-brother to two winners, including Masteroffoxhounds (US turf Grade 2; 115); dam 1m and 1m2f (Listed) winner, by Galileo, sister to BC Turf winner Magician.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (80/1 -400%)Moon Sand |
80/1(-400%) | (5) Moon Sand 80/1, 10 Mar; 105,000 euros Sea The Moon colt; dam, Laylana, useful from 8f to 9f; looks an unlikely winner on debut, others from this yard preferred. E105,000 yearling; second foal; dam French 1m AW 2yo/1m1f turf winner, half-sister to French winners Likala (1m2f Listed) and Liyann (useful 1m 2yo), out of 1m 2yo winning half-sister to Australian 1m Group 2 winner Lidari.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (50/1 -25%)Grand Cru Classe |
50/1(-25%) | (4) Grand Cru Classe 50/1, 19 Apr; 65,000 euros Sea The Stars colt; full-brother to five winners, including Sea Empress, smart at 10f; dam useful at 8f; looks a tough enough ask on debut. E65,000 Y; seventh foal; Sea The Stars colt is brother to five winners; dam AW winner, sister to 6f 2yo Group 2 winner Buratino.. |

A race for middle-distance prospects and ZARAK PASHA may be able to go one better than at Galway where he chased home a Ballydoyle-trained winner over an extended mile. Thomas Chippendale was four lengths behind the selection in third and it will be a surprise if he doesn't get closer with that debut run under his belt. The O'Brien family have lots of interesting newcomers in the line-up, including Albany County, a Camelot half-brother to 1000 Guineas winner Mother Earth, and Dancinginthecity, a Saxon Warrior half-brother to three useful middle-distance winners.

1st (6) (13/8 +19%)La Note Verte |
13/8(+19%) | (6) La Note Verte 13/8, Improved from debut down in trip 1 1/2l third in a beginners chase chase at Wexford most recent run; trainer in form; effective 2-2 1/2m on good; should be winning soon over fences. Second runner for yard; dual hurdle winner is rated 123 in that sphere; fine efforts in both chase starts including when just behind stablemate Future Prospect at Wexford last time; her previous Killarney run was over 2m5f so this trip should be fine; big player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (9/4 -50%)Future Prospect |
9/4(-50%) | (4) Future Prospect 9/4, Too much to do after errors at key stage, ran to form down in trip when second beaten a length in a beginners chase chase at Wexford latest; trainer in form; effective 2m; should be winning soon over fences but stamina to prove here. One of three runners for yard; point, bumper and maiden hurdle winner fell on chasing debut at this venue but has been runner-up twice since at Wexford over 2m and 2m3f; just in front of stablemate La Note Verte last time; a big player if staying this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (9/2 +0%)Straight Home |
9/2(+0%) | (9) Straight Home 9/2, Improved up in trip benefitting from stronger gallop, bit fortunate due to late faller when winning a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan by 4 1/2l last time; trainer in form; off a long absence; effective 2-3m, acts on good; hugely progressive hurdler, more to come as a stayer and over fences. Third runner for yard; point and bumper winner hit form over hurdles last year, winning twice and getting to a rating of 127; seems to be the stable third string on return/chasing debut but can still give a good account.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (18/1 -125%)Miss Fourie |
18/1(-125%) | (8) Miss Fourie 18/1, Yard has won 3 of last 10 runnings of race; every chance, below form up in trip comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Listowel last time; in good form prior; returning from long layoff; effective 2m, suited by sound surface; consistent hurdler until latest, more to come now chasing. Bumper and dual hurdle winner is rated 121 in that sphere though disappointed when last seen in 2025; makes chasing debut for a new yard and is respected but ran poorly on her only run at this track last year.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (4/1 +67%)Carry On Heidi |
4/1(+67%) | (1) Carry On Heidi 4/1, Keen, went clear, made bit too much use of but ran to form 14l third in Irish Stallion Farms EBF Shannon Spray Mares Novice Hurdle (Grade 3) at Limerick most recent run; effective 2 1/2-3m; may have reached level over hurdles but yard's horses tend to improve for fences, big player. Dual point winner won a Clonmel maiden hurdle over 2m4f last autumn; posted some fine runs in defeat after in Listed and Grade 3 company; has to be respected on chasing debut even after a break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (80/1 +0%)Ellens Pride |
80/1(+0%) | (3) Ellens Pride 80/1, Ran to form just flattening out late up in trip well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wexford latest; usually held up; stays 2m2f, yet to prove she gets 3m; point winner, probably more to come under rules over fences but out of depth here. Point winner is a maiden over hurdles and rated only 86 in that sphere so has a lot to find on chasing debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (200/1 -203%)Liss Eile |
200/1(-203%) | (7) Liss Eile 200/1, Race may have come a bit soon down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; yet to build on promising debut over hurdles; likely outclassed on chase debut. Maiden is rated only 77 over hurdles so can't be fancied in this company on chasing debut.. |

Willie Mullins holds a strong hand and this may be settled between stablemates Future Prospect, Straight Home and LA NOTE VERTE, with preference for the latter. The daughter of Australia shaped with promise on her third-placed chase bow over 2m5f at Killarney before looking to find an extended 1m7f at Wexford on the sharp side. She makes more appeal over this longer trip than Future Prospect, who is unproved beyond an extended 2m3f distance under Rules. Straight Home warrants close attention in the market on her return to action.

1st (1) (5/1 -11%)Valvano |
5/1(-11%) | (1) Valvano 5/1, Ran to form beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Doncaster last time; returning from a break; effective 8-12f, acts with cut; unexposed at this trip and could go well again. Has some flashes of smart form (including on sole AW start when second to Notable Speech) so it's disappointing that he's won just once in ten races, and more new headgear was tried when sixth on his reappearance in the Lincoln; that was a pretty good effort from off the pace and he returns from another break after wind surgery and with no aids fitted; has a fair record when fresh, so dangerous to dismiss.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (10/3 +39%)Sovereign Ocean |
10/3(+39%) | (11) Sovereign Ocean 10/3, Ran to best beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Chester last time; off a short-break; effective 7f, acts on a sound surface; light-framed but attractive colt, can go well again. Contested last year's Group 3 Acomb in between wins over 7f (one at Wolverhampton); still lightly raced and denied only late on last time at Chester (7f) where he appeared to have that in the bag when kicking clear after disputing the lead throughout; that effort is worthy of an upgrade; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (18/1 +18%)Aurora Majesty |
18/1(+18%) | (9) Aurora Majesty 18/1, Returned to form beaten 3 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Thirsk last time; suited by 7f, acts on good and AW; needs more than of late at this level and mark looks stiff still. 2-3 on AW surfaces; he's on a handy mark on last season's best efforts and the signs were more encouraging at Thirsk 15 days ago (7f), as although only midfield he wasn't beaten all that far; others are still preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (4/1 +47%)Shiplake |
4/1(+47%) | (10) Shiplake 4/1, Ran about to form beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Windsor last time; off a short-break; effective 6/7f, acts on both sides of good and AW; mark could still be stiff and probably needs another drop in class. Impressed with two C\u0026D wins during the winter and could leave subsequent struggles behind back on this surface; shouldn't be handicapped out of it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (10/1 +38%)Midnight Thunder |
10/1(+38%) | (3) Midnight Thunder 10/1, Below form down the field in UAE 2000 Guineas (Group 3) at Meydan most recent; absent for very lengthy period; tongue-tie first time; effective 6f, acts on soft and good; plenty of early promise, probably out of depth in Group company, more needed on handicap debut returning to UK. Won two turf novices as a 2yo, beating Wokingham winner Double Rush in the first; well below that level when confined to only two starts at Meydan in 2025 (both in January; one on AW); lots to prove on a few counts on handicap debut and with a tongue-tie tried, though any confidence behind him would turn some heads.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (12/1 +0%)Skipper |
12/1(+0%) | (7) Skipper 12/1, Below form again down the field in a handicap at Windsor most recent; blinkers first time; off a short-break; effective 8-10f acts on a sound surface; just 1lb above last winning mark, but inconsistent and more needed. Won at Redcar (1m) in April on yard debut but has beaten just one rival in two outings since; cheekpieces are quickly swapped for blinkers; has something to prove all of a sudden but the ability is lurking to take a hand.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (40/1 -400%)Great Dream |
40/1(-400%) | (4) Great Dream 40/1, Back to very best landing a handicap by 11l off a 12lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time; off a short-break; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft and AW; bit more required back on this surface off new mark. Won a 7f Tapeta maiden for the Crisfords and doubled his tally on third and final run for William Haggas when winning by 11l on soft ground at Ffos Las in June (first-time cheekpieces worn then are now removed); wouldn't want to be flattered by that having gone up 12lb; joined current connections last month for 30,000gns.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (14) (33/1 -175%)Kisskodi |
33/1(-175%) | (14) Kisskodi 33/1, Likeable attitude just pushed out landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark at Chepstow last time; off a short-break; effective 6-7f, acts on any, suited by decent pace; should go well again despite being 7lb higher in the weights. Took strike-rate to 5-16 when winning comfortably at Chepstow (7f, good to soft) ten weeks ago, looking better than ever; 7lb higher in this classier contest but has run well here before and he's not easily knocked.. |

9th (13) (14/1 +36%)Divine Libra |
14/1(+36%) | (13) Divine Libra 14/1, Below best again beaten 6l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; effective 6/7f, acts on soft, a sound surface and AW; mark easing, but hasn't shown much this term, needs to bounce back. Three-time winner but now on a lengthy losing run and connections reverted to blinkers last time at Goodwood; needs to turn a corner.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (4/1 +11%)Dixieland Blues |
4/1(+11%) | (8) Dixieland Blues 4/1, Ran to best form landing a handicap by 2l off a 8lb lower mark at Kempton last time; trainer in form; returning from long layoff; suited by 1m and AW; form in and out in handicaps, but can build on latest. First six runs were at 1m and he had been disappointing in handicaps; however, that changed when dropped to 7f at Kempton last September and he's well handicapped on that comfortable 2l win despite this 8lb higher mark; it's encouraging that he returns from his absence with the yard in great form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (28/1 -100%)Legal Reform |
28/1(-100%) | (2) Legal Reform 28/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on AW, likes plenty of cut on turf; can go well again having been handed just a minor rise. A sixth win here when beating five rivals in March on latest outing (7f); went up only 2lb but lacking a recent run is probably not ideal in this much deeper race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (12) (80/1 -186%)Utmost Good Faith |
80/1(-186%) | (12) Utmost Good Faith 80/1, Scored by 2 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Epsom penultimate start; well below form up in class 13th beaten 27l off 93 last time, same mark here; blinkers first time; suited by 7/8f, acts on good and AW; more needed at this level and mark might be stiff. Won once in Ireland and three times for George Boughey, twice on the AW and in a 7f Epsom handicap on final start for that yard; later sold for 28,000gns; had always worn a hood (also effective in tongue-tie) but went in blinkers on stable debut at Goodwood recently and raced too freely up front; now goes in an eyeshield; bit risky.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (12/1 -20%)Tina's Indian |
12/1(-20%) | (5) Tina's Indian 12/1, Ran to form 2 1/2l third in the Conditions Race at Fairyhouse most recent run; off a short-break; effective at 7f, acts with cut and on good; worth a market check on first start for new yard. Won twice on turf in Ireland and had competitive form in a handicap at this trip; latest run there in a new tongue-tie was highly respectable and he could be interesting on yard debut with Billy Loughnane booked; AW debut.. |

Great Dream has a 12lb hike in the weights to contend with after scoring easily at Ffos Las in first-time cheekpieces. He still makes more appeal than Legal Reform, whose C&D success came back in March, but a chance is taken on SOVEREIGN OCEAN in an open affair. The latter was having only his second start of the year when picked off late at Chester in June and Marco Botti's unexposed three-year-old has scope for considerable improvement.

1st (4) (4/5 +0%)Varzi |
4/5(+0%) | (4) Varzi 4/5, Promising debut in a tongue-tie runner-up beaten 3l in a novice at York only start; off a short-break; effective 5f on good; more to come now faced with 1f extra. 170,000euros yearling who was second on debut at York in May (5f, good; 2-1 favourite) and, while he was no match for the winner, that was Cut A Dash who was subsequently fourth at Royal Ascot; the tongue-tie is retained for this first run since; entered in the Group 2 Mill Reef; sets a useful standard.. |

2nd (5) (12/1 -9%)Diamondsforyou |
12/1(-9%) | (5) Diamondsforyou 12/1, 15 Feb; St Mark's Basilica filly; half-sister to Catching The Moon, very smart at 6f; dam, Riches And Rubies, fair at 12f; tough enough ask on debut. Second foal; St Mark's Basilica half-sister to connections 5f/6f 2yo winner Catching The Moon (including Group 3); dam 1m4f winner (RPR 72), half-sister to Group-placed 5f 2yo winner Pearls And Rubies, out of 1m2f Group 1 winner; takes on males on debut but no surprise to see a good run.. |

4th (3) (4/1 -78%)Princeland |
4/1(-78%) | (3) Princeland 4/1, 1 Apr; 320,000gns Havana Grey colt; half-brother to Tadej, very smart at 6f; dam useful at 8f; trainer in form; in with a big chance on first start. 320,000gns yearling; third foal; Havana Grey half-brother to 6f 2yo Group 3 winner Tadej; dam placed 1m/1m2f (RPR 75), from classy family; powerful Newmarket stable is having an excellent season with 2yos; major player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (80/1 -186%)North Coates |
80/1(-186%) | (2) North Coates 80/1, 27 Apr; Belardo gelding; dam, Harvest Day, useful at 7f; looks an unlikely winner on debut. Second foal; dam 7f/1m winner (RPR 78), half-sister to winners Bocking End (1m-1m2f) and Archie Stevens (5f/6f including 2yo); a market check is advised but this Belardo newcomer is likely to improve for the outing.. |

Having finished second on his opening bid at York, Varzi should take all the beating with the experience under his belt. That said, Karl Burke's colt is likely to be priced accordingly and it could be worth chancing PRINCELAND. The 320,000gns yearling has an attractive pedigree and this could be a good platform to launch his career. Diamondsforyou has speed in her pedigree and merits close inspection in the betting, while Magic Harry is introduced at a realistic level and appeals more than the already-gelded North Coates at this stage.

7/1(+30%) | (7) Liberation Date 7/1, Bit below best beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Gowran Park last time; effective at 7-9f, acts on good and AW; could have more to offer upped in trip. Sole win came in an AW 7f maiden at Dundalk in December; had the run of the race under today's rider in a premier handicap here (1m1f, good) when a career-best third but unable to back that up over shorter at Galway; tries this trip for the first time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3/1 +50%)Thyer |
3/1(+50%) | (2) Thyer 3/1, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Galway last time; effective at 8-12f, acts on sound surface; can go well again facing just a minor rise. Dual 1m winner in Britain, both on good ground; steady return to form of late, most recently in first-time visor at Galway, racing keenly when good third of 16 over 1m4f (yielding); step back in trip could suit now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (11/1 +31%)Nibras Rainbow |
11/1(+31%) | (12) Nibras Rainbow 11/1, Scored by a neck off a 4lb lower mark at Leopardstown three starts back; below form ninth beaten 14l off 56 last time, same mark here; effective 8-12f, acts on most; in form until latest, needs more up in class. Has been in good form this summer with wins at both Killarney and Leopardstown over slightly shorter; decent run at Ballinrobe afterwards, but Gowran effort on Wednesday was disappointing; 3lb out of handicap here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (15/2 +25%)Admiral Will Brown |
15/2(+25%) | (6) Admiral Will Brown 15/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 14lb lower mark at Navan penultimate start; ran about to form up in class and trip ninth beaten 9l off 78 last time, same mark here; effective 8-10f, stamina to prove at 12f, acts on sound surface; mark looks too stiff. Nicely improved on yard debut to win over this trip at Navan last month, didn't appear to stay 1m4f at Galway 16 days later; could still have more to offer at this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (6/1 -50%)Youcansaythatagain |
6/1(-50%) | (3) Youcansaythatagain 6/1, Improved on debut effort when winning a maiden at Down Royal by 3/4l last time; effective 10f, acts on a sound surface; big chance to follow up on handicap debut. Lightly raced Ghaiyyath colt; promising debut in C\u0026D maiden on Derby weekend and following month justified favouritism in similar Down Royal contest, still green but asserting late on to win a shade snugly; likely has more to offer and interesting stepping into handicap company.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (13/2 +7%)Great Mover |
13/2(+7%) | (4) Great Mover 13/2, Ran to form beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Galway last time; trainer in form; effective 7-10f, suited by cut, acts on good; chance back in trip. Only win from 24 starts came on heavy ground at Gowran last September; couple of good placed efforts at Leopardstown this term but needs to improve on recent form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (20/1 -67%)Sonoran |
20/1(-67%) | (1) Sonoran 20/1, Below form again down the field in a handicap at Navan most recent; effective 8-10f, acts with cut, on good and AW; mark easing, but bounce back needed. Yet to add to tally since maiden win at Tipperary last year; good third at Leopardstown in May (1m2f, good) but hasn't built on that and handicapper slow to relent.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (13/2 +7%)Blackjack Hills |
13/2(+7%) | (10) Blackjack Hills 13/2, Below form up to 12f beaten 8l in a handicap at Galway last time; effective 8-11f, acts on heavy, good and AW; can bounce back down in trip. AW winner at this trip last autumn and easily best of three turf runs this summer when beaten a neck over this trip at Leopardstown; may not have handled the track at Galway latest (softer ground) but definite chance on that Leopardstown run.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (12/1 +64%)Unterberg |
12/1(+64%) | (5) Unterberg 12/1, Below form again down the field in a handicap at Galway most recent; significant jockey booking; effective 9-12f, acts on yielding, good to firm and AW; form has tailed off this summer. Best on AW (six wins) but just 1-21 on turf; scored at Dundalk in March but soundly beaten back on turf of late; jockey booking encouraging off a reduced mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (9/1 -100%)Guinelot |
9/1(-100%) | (11) Guinelot 9/1, Ran to form, opened account when winning a maiden at Ballinrobe by a head last time; effective 10/11f, acts with cut and on good; can follow up on handicap debut. Nicely improved on third maiden outing this summer to land Ballinrobe contest over just shy of this trip, just outbattling a subsequent winner (pair clear); opening mark looks handy, could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (50/1 -257%)Storzando |
50/1(-257%) | (9) Storzando 50/1, Below form back down in trip beaten 8l in a maiden at Galway last time; effective 11f, acts on good; could bounce back over further again. Lightly raced 3yo, easily pick of three maiden runs when rallying 1l third to Youcansaythatagain over this trip at Down Royal; well below that form at Galway since however over shorter; should appreciate return to 1m2f for handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (40/1 -82%)Mighty Danu |
40/1(-82%) | (8) Mighty Danu 40/1, Below form beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Leopardstown last time; effective 7/8f, acts on yielding and good; needs a lot more upped in trip here. Won a 7f maiden (yielding) on debut at the Galway festival last season; only seen three times since, never sighted on last month's handicap debut at Leopardstown (7f); marked step up in trip here and could be a suspect stayer.. |

After a good run over a mile here on seasonal debut, THYER again ran with credit when third over 1m4f at Galway. Perhaps this intermediate distance will prove ideal for the five-year-old, whose trainer Maurice Ahern does well with a limited amount of runners. After a promising effort over C&D, Youcansaythatagain got off the mark at Down Royal and the well-bred son of Ghaiyyath is one to consider on handicap debut. Liberation Date had the inside stall when a creditable third over 1m1f here in June, but is posted wide this time. Blackjack Hills has to enter calculations on his narrow defeat over this trip at Leopardstown last month.

1st (8) (9/2 +10%)A Snow White Park |
9/2(+10%) | (8) A Snow White Park 9/2, Unseated in a handicap chase at Galway latest; effective over 2m-2m5f; progressive over fences, can do better again judged on hurdle form. Hurdle winner has twice run well in defeat at this track over fences this year, including over C\u0026D; unseated at Galway last time but has a squeak on those better earlier runs.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (9/2 +31%)Pourquoi Poi |
9/2(+31%) | (10) Pourquoi Poi 9/2, Every chance, bit below form down the field in a handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe most recent; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on sound surface; generally in fair form and unexposed over fences. Hurdle winner ran well enough on h'cap chase debut at Punchestown but was poor over hurdles last time at Ballinrobe; the cheekpieces worn then are left off today so he could rebound.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/2 +36%)Watch The Weather |
9/2(+36%) | (3) Watch The Weather 9/2, Yard won this last year; ran to form 5 1/2l third in Lord Hemphill Memorial Handicap Chase at Galway most recent run; effective at around 2m4f-3m, acts on heavy and good; generally consistent over fences. Dual chase winner was second over hurdles at Killarney in May and ran a cracker back over fences at Galway last time; looks a big player down 2lb and in grade.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (9/1 -6%)That's About Right |
9/1(-6%) | (9) That's About Right 9/1, Never threatened well beaten in a handicap chase at Galway latest; usually held up; effective 2m2f-2m6f, acts on soft and good; inconsistent. Three hurdle wins; dual chase winner at Thurles; ran well enough at Galway last time but needs to do more today even dropped 2lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (7/1 -27%)Tullyveery Lad |
7/1(-27%) | (5) Tullyveery Lad 7/1, Won this last year off 3lb lower; unseated in a handicap hurdle at Galway latest; effective 2m4f-3m on a sound surface; inconsistent but threat if bringing best. Won this race last year but has been mostly below form this year over hurdles and fences; is still 3lb above last year's winning mark so has to return to best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (12/1 +25%)General Clermont |
12/1(+25%) | (7) General Clermont 12/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip down the field in a handicap hurdle at Sligo most recent; effective 2 1/2m; return to chasing a plus but must bounce back. Dual chase winner has run well in defeat at this track; however, was pulled-up on his last chase run and below form over hurdles since so others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (25/1 +0%)Orkneys Jack |
25/1(+0%) | (6) Orkneys Jack 25/1, Outpaced, unsuited by drop in trip comfortably held in a beginners chase chase at Roscommon last time; effective 2 1/2m; point winner needs this step back up in trip, risky. Point winner has only had six runs under rules; promising Kilbeggan chasing debut but not as good twice since; however, can do better again now entering handicaps.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (12/1 +52%)Marv Michael |
12/1(+52%) | (2) Marv Michael 12/1, Every chance, below form up in class comfortably held in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan last time; off a short-break; stays up 2m4f, may not get further given aggressive tactics; must bounce back. Maiden hurdle winner here; both chase wins came at Kilbeggan when with Henry de Bromhead; below form last four starts and needs a return to his best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (9/1 -170%)Nastya |
9/1(-170%) | (4) Nastya 9/1, Yard has won 2 of last 7 runnings of race; scored by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Limerick penultimate start; never jumped or travelled in a handicap chase latest; effective 3m, suited by decent ground; progressing until latest, mark demands more. Won over 3m at Limerick on return, her second chase win, but was poor at Wexford since and has to rebound; was disappointing on her only previous run here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (11/2 +54%)Intense Approach |
11/2(+54%) | (1) Intense Approach 11/2, Mistakes, returned to form under aggressive ride beaten 9l in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan last time; effective 2m4f-3m, suited by good; not one to rely on building on latest. Five-time hurdle winner won a Galway beginners' chase last year but hasn't been as good since; however, there was more encouragement at Kilbeggan last time and he drops in class today so isn't dismissed.. |

Having posted a good third when out of the handicap at the Galway Festival, WATCH THE WEATHER makes plenty of appeal in these calmer waters. The veteran is effectively 4lb lower if taking Paddy Cody's claim into account and a sixth career victory may beckon. A Snow White Park filled the runner-up spot on two occasions before unseating at the Ballybrit venue 19 days ago and she's feared most, ahead of That's About Right.

1st (8) (2/1 +20%)Storm Force |
2/1(+20%) | (8) Storm Force 2/1, Heavily backed, very green in front, not hard ridden once winner had flown third beaten 5l in a maiden at Hamilton debut; off a long absence; wide draw; sire high-class 6-8f, dam fair sprinter; chance for top connections if settling better. 230,000gns breeze-up buy last year; raced with choke out and was turned over at odds of 4-7 on debut at Hamilton (5f, good) that May; second run has been a long time coming and he's now gelded; market vibes are awaited with interest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (2/1 +56%)Poison Arrow |
2/1(+56%) | (6) Poison Arrow 2/1, Moderate run beaten 8l in a novice at Windsor on debut; returning from long layoff; sire top-class sprinter and tends to produce useful speedsters; should have more to come, but progress needed. £170,000 yearling; went off at only 7-2 for last year's debut at Windsor (6f, good) but never really got involved from off the pace; gelded in the meantime and it will be interesting to gauge the confidence behind him after 11 months off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (3/1 -71%)Space Party |
3/1(-71%) | (7) Space Party 3/1, Built on debut effort when second beaten 3/4l in a maiden at Windsor latest; off a short-break; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; should keep progressing. Clear promise in both his runs over 6f, last time beaten half a length behind one who hasn't disgraced the form since; sets the standard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (17/2 -70%)Iron Dome |
17/2(-70%) | (4) Iron Dome 17/2, 80,000gns Blue Point gelding; half-brother to Thelma's Angel, very useful at 7f; dam high-class at 5f; wide draw; not ruled out on debut. Son of Blue Point who cost 80,000gns as a yearling; half-brother to 6f winner Thelma's Angel (RPR 88); dam Listed-placed 5f/5.4f winner (109); has been gelded but needs checking out in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (20/1 -186%)Persian Gate |
20/1(-186%) | (5) Persian Gate 20/1, 30,000gns Ardad gelding; half-brother to Yazaman, very smart at 6f as 2yo; dam very smart at 5f; probably best watched on first start. 30,000gns yearling by Ardad; sixth foal; closely related to winners Yazaman (Group-placed 5f/5.5f; RPR 103) and Poderoso (Qatari 6f/7f), and half-brother to 5f-6.5f winner Royal Commando (114); dam Listed-placed 5f winner (105); gelded prior to this debut but pedigree bodes well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (12/1 +0%)Extended Credit |
12/1(+0%) | (3) Extended Credit 12/1, Modest well beaten in a maiden at Wolverhampton only start; sire effective 6-8f, dam 6f winner, but stayed a mile; plenty of progress needed down in trip. 85,000gns yearling; settled in rear at Wolverhampton (7f; 25-1) and never made any great inroads up the straight; best watched for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (100/1 +0%)Atomik |
100/1(+0%) | (9) Atomik 100/1, Harry Angel filly; dam smart at 8f; tongue-tie first time; wide draw; looks a highly unlikely winner on debut. First foal out of a 7f-8.6f AW winner (RPR 98) and half-sister to winners Revenite (6f 2yo) and Global Art (1m-1m2f); tongue tied for debut; she'd be a surprise winner unless the money comes.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (250/1 -150%)Cosmic Bond |
250/1(-150%) | (2) Cosmic Bond 250/1, Roughly to debut form well beaten in a maiden here latest; sire top-class sprinter in Australia, dam useful over 6f; hard to make a case for after first two starts. Has performed to a low level in both his races over 7f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (500/1 -400%)Blazing Gaden |
500/1(-400%) | (1) Blazing Gaden 500/1, Continued in poor form comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot last time; off a short-break; showed very little over hurdles and all to do switching spheres. Exposed as a limited hurdler and makes no appeal on this belated Flat debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (150/1 -50%)I Can Dream |
150/1(-50%) | (10) I Can Dream 150/1, Some progression from debut, but still poor level beaten 9l in a novice at Bath last time; off a short-break; sprint-bred; should have some natural improvement but looks limited. Out the back in races at Windsor and Bath; handicaps beckon; stablemate of form choice Space Party.. |

Persian Gate is related to a couple of winning sprinters and any significant support in the market should be noted. Storm Force has been gelded since his third at Hamilton in May and is another to note, but SPACE PARTY looks the safest option. An encouraging third at Doncaster on debut, Henry Candy's inmate missed out by less than a length when runner-up at Windsor on his latest start and the winner has subsequently gone in again to give that form a solid look.

1st (3) (15/8 +17%)Luna Celeste |
15/8(+17%) | (3) Luna Celeste 15/8, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Nottingham last time; top course jockey; effective 6f-8, acts on good to firm and AW; new mark asks more, but should still have plenty more to come. Won Leicester maiden (6f, good to firm) in May on third start and progressive in handicaps since, going close behind Darzah at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) then making all at Nottingham (1m, good to firm); came clear with the runner-up last time and she's very much respected up 6lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/2 +38%)Darzah |
5/2(+38%) | (4) Darzah 5/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) penultimate start; below form fifth beaten 8 1/4l off 81 last time, same mark here; trainer in form; effective 1m, acts on sound surface; more to come and can bounce back. Beat Luna Celeste to win at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) in June on her second handicap start; disappointing behind that rival at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) subsequently but she retains potential for her top yard; could be on a good mark if bouncing back to form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (11/2 -65%)Quisana |
11/2(-65%) | (5) Quisana 11/2, Improved again, opened account when winning a maiden at Nottingham by a neck last time; effective 7f/8f, acts on sound surface; in form, and good chance again here on handicap debut. She's run to a similar level on all five starts and made all in a five-runner maiden at Nottingham (1m, good to firm) a fortnight ago; improvement is needed if she's to follow up on this handicap debut but she's unexposed in the hood (worn on last two starts) and is not ruled out.. |

10/1(+29%) | (1) Two B Tanned 10/1, Ran back to form beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Musselburgh last time; enjoys making it; suited by 1m, acts on a sound surface; mark still looks stiff. Front-runner who posted five wins last year and reappeared with another at Musselburgh (1m, good) in April; unplaced on both starts since and, while she didn't run badly back at Musselburgh last time, she's taking on 3yos this afternoon and may again prove vulnerable.. |

5th (2) (4/1 -33%)Si Grass |
4/1(-33%) | (2) Si Grass 4/1, Ran to form up in class on handicap debut beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Goodwood last time; effective 1m, should get further, acts on good and AW; big, strong filly, nice prospect and could still have more to come in handicaps. 1m AW novice winner who was beaten just over 3l when eighth of 14 on last month's handicap debut at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good); that came after a break and she may be able to build on that performance today; a possible.. |

Luna Celeste and Darzah are honours even from their two previous clashes. However, the former was readily on top in their encounter at Nottingham and Tom Clover's consistent filly may uphold the form, despite a 6lb rise for that cosy success. Even so, it will be no easy task conceding 4lb to QUISANA, who also won at the same venue last time out. The time was marginally quicker and the daughter of Ghaiyyath looks set for another bold bid on her handicap debut.

1st (3) (1/7 +57%)A Boy Named Susie |
1/7(+57%) | (3) A Boy Named Susie 1/7, Confirmed promise of unlucky French Derby run when second beaten 3l in Coral-Eclipse (Group 1) at Sandown latest; stays 10f, may enjoy 12f, acts on soft and good; notable jockey booking; the one to beat on the balance of form. Holds outstanding claims here despite having only a debut win to his name; form last season and this term ties in with several top-class Ballydoyle colts, including when fourth behind three of them in the Prix du Jockey-Club and when splitting Constitution River and Hawk Mountain in the Eclipse.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (22/1 -38%)Charles Fort |
22/1(-38%) | (4) Charles Fort 22/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; struggled up in class beaten 9l in Blenheim Stakes (Listed) at Fairyhouse last time; top course trainer; returning from long layoff; effective 6-7f, acts on with cut and on good; progressive in maidens, but more needed at this grade. Useful form in juvenile maidens, culminating in a 6f Cork win on yielding-to-soft last September; found to be lame when an unplaced favourite for a 6f Listed race at Fairyhouse later that month; makes a belated return; may outrun his 89 rating but faces a huge task. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (6/1 -20%)Omni Man |
6/1(-20%) | (2) Omni Man 6/1, Looked a marked improvement but could have flattered when fourth beaten 3l in Ballyroan Stakes (Group 3) at Leopardstown latest; effective 12f, acts on most; can go well again if building on that here. Handicap winner over 1m4f at Goodwood last season; low-key efforts in April/May before showing signs of a return to form when fifth in a 1m4f Royal Ascot handicap; faded into fourth behind Ethical Diamond in a 1m4f Group 3 event at Leopardstown ten days ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (80/1 -100%)Rebel Ascendant |
80/1(-100%) | (5) Rebel Ascendant 80/1, Confirmed debut promise up in class when fourth beaten 6 1/4l in an auction race at Roscommon latest; cheekpieces first time; off a short-break; effective 10f, acts on soft and good; open to plenty of improvement, but not sure to be up to this grade yet. Debut maiden winner on soft at Gowran in April, saw out the extended 1m1f well despite running green; moderate fourth of five at Roscommon the following month; cheekpieces fitted now; up against it.. |

A BOY NAMED SUSIE only has a debut win at Killarney to his name, but his recent form has been top-class and he is sure to be sent off at prohibitive odds. A fine fourth to Constitution River in the Prix du Jockey Club, he posted another career best when reversing form with Chantilly runner-up Hawk Mountain in the Eclipse at Sandown, which was also won by Constitution River. That level of form puts him well clear of his four rivals and it will be a shock if he doesn't gain a confidence-boosting success. A fair fourth in a Leopardstown Group 3 over 1m4f last week, Omni Man is preferred to his 6lb lower-rated stablemate Cowardofthecounty for forecast purposes.

1st (5) (15/2 +25%)Kingdom Calling |
15/2(+25%) | (5) Kingdom Calling 15/2, Travelled, ran to form but didn't find as much as looked likely when fourth beaten 15l in a handicap hurdle at Killarney latest; effective 2m, acts on soft, good; fair mark on maiden form but inconsistent of late and yet to take to chasing. 250-1 maiden hurdle winner two years ago; couple of decent runs in handicaps last year but form largely inconsistent; beaten 15l into fourth at Killarney (2m1f, good) 31 days ago over hurdles, staying on reasonably well from rear; beaten 21l over C\u0026D in May; on a nice mark but needs to put best foot forward.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +0%)Presenting Lad |
4/1(+0%) | (1) Presenting Lad 4/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Wexford latest where never travelled; suited by 2m on good; fair mark and likes the track but inconsistent of late. Six-time winner, including over C\u0026D in a novice chase two years ago; form has been in and out over the last 12 months but best effort in that time came over C\u0026D when 4.25l second off 4lb higher in May; below form last twice, pulled up at Wexford 47 days ago; on a good mark if return to this track sparks him up again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (15/2 -15%)Itsalonglongroad |
15/2(-15%) | (3) Itsalonglongroad 15/2, Won this last year off 7lb higher; unsuited by change of tactics comfortably held in a handicap here last time; enjoys making it; effective 2m, acts on any; game frontrunner, goes well at Tramore, good mark on chase form. Veteran who is 12-115 under all codes; five-time course winner, four times over jumps; dual C\u0026D winner, latest 12 months ago off 7lb higher; much below best last two vists here but dangerous to completely write off in a winnable race at a venue he loves.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (12/1 +25%)Katherine |
12/1(+25%) | (4) Katherine 12/1, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap hurdle at Cork most recent; hood first time; effective 2m, needs sound surface; likely flattered by spring hurdles outlier. Three-time winner over hurdles, latest in October 2024; last two hurdle runs have been poor and was well-held 2lb higher in handicap chase at Roscommon in June; needs plenty more in first-time hood.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (10/3 +0%)Bossing It |
10/3(+0%) | (2) Bossing It 10/3, Jumped poorly well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wexford latest; in good form prior; effective 2m-2m5f, suited by good; running back into form until latest and good mark on best hurdles efforts, major player on chase debut. Maiden hurdle winner last year who bounced back to form with second at Wexford (2m1f, good) in May; backed that up when beaten 6l into fifth at Listowel when out of the weights; below form when beaten favourite at Wexford lto; makes chase debut and appeals as the type with more to give.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (11/2 +61%)Polly Poppins |
11/2(+61%) | (6) Polly Poppins 11/2, Poor run well beaten in a handicap chase at Wexford latest; effective 2m, acts on good; debut form franked but hasn't progressed. A 15-race maiden but her best form has come here; beaten 3.5l into third by well-handicapped rival over C\u0026D in October off 7lb higher; below form three starts this term but she would have a big chance if reproducing October effort.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (8) (11/1 +21%)Nobody |
11/1(+21%) | (8) Nobody 11/1, Too much to do back from a break, did much the best of those coming from off the pace comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time; effective 2m1f, acts on good; should come on for latest and very interesting at a price on chase debut. Has been struggling in handicaps but ran one of his better races 13 days ago when keeping on to finish fifth at Cork (2m1f, good); needs fences to spark improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (4/1 +20%)Ballinaboola Gold |
4/1(+20%) | (9) Ballinaboola Gold 4/1, Every chance, below form comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Wexford last time; top course trainer; effective 3m, acts on good to yielding; unreliable but fair mark on best hurdle form; not dismissed on chase debut. A 14-race maiden but has had some good efforts, most notably when second at Punchestown (3m, good) in May off 4lb higher; well-held in four starts since and tries a shorter trip over fences; capable off this mark.. |

None of these are without risk and with that in mind, PRESENTING LAD could be worth chancing. A C&D winner as a novice a couple of seasons back, the 10-year-old has dropped to a very handy mark and a revival could see him stamp his authority under top weight in a weak event. Ballinaboola Gold is still a maiden but switching to fences could be a source of improvement at this level, while similar comments apply to Bossing It, whose peak hurdles form gives him a fair chance.

1st (7) (6/5 +60%)Yordan |
6/5(+60%) | (7) Yordan 6/5, Promising runner-up beaten 1/2l in a novice at Leicester only start; sire top-class sprinter; further improvement likely down to sprinting. 160,000gns yearling; weak 10-1 at Leicester (7f) but saw his race out well for second of four after starting slowly, and the winner had shown plenty of promise previously; this drop back to 6f wouldn't be an obvious move but he's a scopey gelding with better days ahead of him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (9/2 -80%)Black Orchid |
9/2(-80%) | (8) Black Orchid 9/2, Stayed in good form when second beaten 2 1/4l in a novice at Wetherby latest; off a short-break; effective 6f on good; big player here with improvement likely. Well-bred filly who has finished second in both her races, beaten 7l on debut but then just over 2l at Wetherby (extended 5f) where she got no freedom up front; take out the winner and that was a weak race, but she retains potential.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (20/1 -167%)Project Wallace |
20/1(-167%) | (5) Project Wallace 20/1, Bit below debut form beaten 8l in a maiden at Wolverhampton last time; off a short-break; effective 5f, acts on AW; speed in pedigree, could progress stepped up in trip. Went from the front when beaten 2l at Newcastle and had a wide draw when not so good at Wolverhampton (again over 5f; did some hanging); others in here have superior form but he'll win races further down the line, if not this one.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (150/1 -355%)El Ghuwah |
150/1(-355%) | (2) El Ghuwah 150/1, Ran about to debut form 8 1/4l third in a novice at Leicester most recent run; looks in need than further than 5f; step up in trip could help, but needs more. Both runs over 5f; his third last time came in a field of four and he was beaten just over 8l, as was also the case on his debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (4/1 -20%)Oddjob |
4/1(-20%) | (4) Oddjob 4/1, Not without promise 7l fourth in a novice at Wolverhampton first-time out; wide draw; plenty of speed in pedigree; should improve for this step down in trip. 40,000gns yearling and a half-brother to four winners; made his debut over 7f on Tapeta at Wolverhampton (14-1) where he didn't enjoy the clearest of runs before keeping on, finishing 7l off the winner; the runner-up has given that form a hefty boost; should be wiser here and get involved, for all that dropping back to 6f may ask different questions of him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (5/1 -25%)Cosmic Girl |
5/1(-25%) | (9) Cosmic Girl 5/1, Some promise third beaten 6 1/2l in a novice at Lingfield debut; off a short-break; sire effective 6/7f, dam useful around 7/8f; looks likely to appreciate drop in trip, but progress needed. 72,000gns yearling and a half-sister to four winners; also hooded at Lingfield in May (extended 7f, good) and ran with a degree of promise behind respected opposition; needs to find more but that's feasible, especially back at 6f as she travelled okay on that debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (12/1 +33%)Mr G Force |
12/1(+33%) | (3) Mr G Force 12/1, 500,000gns yearling; 16,000gns 3yo; Frankel gelding; dam, Onassis, high-class at 6f; looks an unlikely winner on first start. Son of Frankel but never raced for Godolphin after making 500,000gns as a yearling and was sold on this February for 16,000gns (gelded before then); a watching brief makes sense.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (250/1 -150%)Smooth Flight |
250/1(-150%) | (6) Smooth Flight 250/1, Ran to same level as debut well beaten in a maiden at Wolverhampton latest; wide draw; sprint-bred, sound surfaces will suit action; quite tall gelding, but needs to learn to settle. Beaten in the region of 15l in 6f races at Lingfield and Wolverhampton; one for handicaps.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (80/1 -100%)Beautiful Rumour |
80/1(-100%) | (1) Beautiful Rumour 80/1, Sogann gelding; dam, Savannah Beau, very useful at 5f; probably best watched on debut for trainer not best known for his juveniles. First foal out of a 5f/6f winner for this yard, including on the Newcastle AW; however, this is a belated debut and he's probably up against it.. |

Having finished between two useful sorts on his second-placed debut at Leicester, a breakthrough victory may await for YORDAN. That experience should do Kevin Ryan's inmate the world of good and he gets the vote over Black Orchid. The daughter of Ardad has filled the runner-up spot on both outings and may have to play second fiddle once more, while Cosmic Girl may enjoy this drop in distance.

1st (5) (11/10 +41%)America Queen |
11/10(+41%) | (5) America Queen 11/10, Solid run made plenty of use of down to 6f when fourth beaten 2l in Summer Stakes (Group 3) at York latest; top course jockey; effective 6f, stays 7f, acts on a sound surface; likeable, can go well dropped in class. 0-5, all in Group races, since winning on debut last July but she's produced some big performances in the interim, most recently a close fourth in the Group 3 Summer Stakes at York (6f, good to firm); that latest form has worked out well and this front-runner can make a bold bid from stall two.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (40/1 0%)Ruby's Angel |
40/1(0%) | (10) Ruby's Angel 40/1, Ran about to form beaten 3l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; effective 6f, acts on both sides of good; generally consistent, but not sure to be up to this level. Won handicap at Chester (6f, good) in May and ran well when fifth of 20 in competitive fillies' handicap at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good) last time; however, she has plenty to find against the pick of today's opposition.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (13/2 +24%)Arabian Dusk |
13/2(+24%) | (1) Arabian Dusk 13/2, Caught too far back but stayed beaten 3l in Oak Tree Stakes (Group 3) at Goodwood last time; trainer in form; returning from long layoff; tongue-tie first time; effective 6/7f, acts on any; generally consistent in Graded company. This is her first run since last July but she returns with her stable in fine form and she went very close in the Group 2 Sandy Lane Stakes at Haydock (6f, good) last May; in the mix if at the top of her game; wears a first-time tongue-tie.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (50/1 +24%)Catching The Moon |
50/1(+24%) | (6) Catching The Moon 50/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; outpaced down to 6f down the field in Summer Stakes (Group 3) at York most recent; effective 5/6f at 2yo, acts on any; disappointing so far as a 3yo. Made it 2-3 in 2yo campaign with Group 3 win at Ayr last September; she's had excuses on both runs this season (interference; upset in stalls) but has been well beaten each time and others arrive with less to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (9/2 -35%)Royal Fixation |
9/2(-35%) | (9) Royal Fixation 9/2, Better effort in cheekpieces and tongue-tie but below 2yo form beaten 3l in Summer Stakes (Group 3) at York last time; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; below top-class juvenile form so far, but can bounce back. Won the Group 2 Lowther Stakes at York (6f, good to firm) last August and she took a step back in the right direction when 3l fifth of 13 there last month in the Group 3 Summer Stakes (6f, good to firm; America Queen fourth), when slowly away in first-time tongue-tie/cheekpieces (both retained); she's capable of building on that latest effort and is one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (11/2 +27%)Sing The Blues |
11/2(+27%) | (11) Sing The Blues 11/2, Ran to form when winning a handicap at Goodwood by a neck last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; progressive, but step up in class requires more. Lightly raced 3yo who was sold out of William Haggas's yard for 6,000gns on July 1 and has proved to be a bargain buy for new connections, making it 2-2 for current yard when winning big-field fillies' handicap at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good); today's assignment demands further improvement but she's clearly thriving and is not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (125/1 -25%)Brazilian Rose |
125/1(-25%) | (2) Brazilian Rose 125/1, Lost chance when wide on home bend down the field in Oak Tree Stakes (Group 3) at Goodwood most recent; usually held up; effective 6/7f, seems to act on any; needs a lot more. Raced wide when well beaten at 150-1 in Group 3 Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) recently; unplaced in three Listed races prior to that; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (50/1 -52%)Killavia |
50/1(-52%) | (7) Killavia 50/1, Ran to best when winning a handicap at Ascot by 1 1/2l last time; effective 5f, 6f may eventually suit better, acts on a sound surface; more needed at this level. Exploited a reduced mark to win Class 4 handicap at Ascot (5f, good to firm) last month; this 3yo may have more to offer now that things have clicked again but she looks up against it in today's line-up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (11/1 -22%)Dash Of Azure |
11/1(-22%) | (3) Dash Of Azure 11/1, Below par on fast ground beaten 9l in Oak Tree Stakes (Group 3) at Goodwood last time; in good form prior; this seems more here level, more to come. Down the field in Group 3 Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) last time but prior to that she went close in two Listed races at Chester (7f, good); has a part to play if leaving last time behind.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (16/1 -14%)Miss Nightcap |
16/1(-14%) | (8) Miss Nightcap 16/1, Ran to form when winning a handicap at Leicester by 3 1/4l last time; effective 6/7f, acts on fast ground and AW; steadily progressing, form franked, but needs more up in grade to this level. 3yo who made her debut only in May; made all at Wolverhampton (7f, AW) in June on her third start then did likewise on handicap debut at Leicester (6f, good to firm); others have more substance to their form but she was impressive last time and it remains to be seen where her limitations lie.. |

ROYAL FIXATION cosily held America Queen when she won last year's Lowther and her subsequent third-placed finish in the Cheveley Park earned her further valuable black type. Having bettered a modest seasonal debut at Newbury with a more encouraging effort in the Summer Stakes back on the Knavesmire, a sharper start could see the Karl Burke-trained filly again master her old adversary. America Queen was a place ahead of the selection at York last month and must be on the shortlist. Dash Of Azure, Arabian Dusk and Magic Basma can also have a say.

1st (4) (13/8 +59%)Armor Supreme |
13/8(+59%) | (4) Armor Supreme 13/8, Every chance, ran to form beaten 4l in Queen Mary Stakes (Group 2) at Ascot last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; suited by 5f, acts on a sound surface; smart sprinting 2yo filly with good attitude; Rossa Ryan travels for sole ride. All three runs have been in Britain, winning Goodwood novice in May, beaten a head in York Listed a fortnight later and creditable ninth of 27 behind Victorious in Group 2 Queen Mary at Ascot on good-to-firm; has had a break since and heads a strong stable challenge here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (15/2 -36%)Grayrobin |
15/2(-36%) | (1) Grayrobin 15/2, Ran to form when winning a 2yo race at Cork by 1 1/4l last time; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; shown plenty of promise and good chance taking another step up in class. Well beaten on debut when trained by Archie Watson but 2-2 since joining this yard, showing plenty of speed when up with the pace in winning Bellewstown maiden and Cork rated event (much better form) on good-to-firm; should make another bold bid although stiffer 5f here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (3/1 +45%)New Bond Street |
3/1(+45%) | (8) New Bond Street 3/1, Minor improvement again 2l third in a maiden here most recent run; trainer in form; wide draw; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; has been taking steps forward with each start, but needs further progress to challenge at this level. Second runner for the owners/trainer; 0-3 in 6f maidens, including Naas third to a subsequent Group 2 winner, and didn't quite get home here a week ago; back in trip now and don't rule out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (22/1 -159%)Star Prospect |
22/1(-159%) | (2) Star Prospect 22/1, Ran about to form beaten 9l in a 2yo race at Naas last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and a sound surface; wasn't Group 2 level at Ascot, but could be more competitive here. C\u0026D debut winner in April (soft) is 0-4 since, notably Cork rated third to Grayrobin (rec 5lb); never able to land a blow in valuable Ballyhane Stakes on first run over 6f latest; place claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (80/1 -186%)Arrowstock |
80/1(-186%) | (5) Arrowstock 80/1, Below form again when fourth beaten 2l in a maiden at Cork latest; plenty of speed in pedigree, effective 5f, acts on good; needs plenty more stepping back up in grade. Maiden whose standout run came when fifth of 10 in Naas Listed last month, fourth in Cork maiden on Friday.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (10/1 -11%)Brazilian Diva |
10/1(-11%) | (6) Brazilian Diva 10/1, Ran to form beaten 5l in Molecomb Stakes (Group 3) at Goodwood last time; in generally good form; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; on an upward trajectory. Plenty of experience, winning Naas maiden (beating April Mist 2.5l) and much better form when narrowly defeated in Listed at same venue last month; keen when beaten 5l in Group 3 Molecomb Stakes on latest; definite claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (33/1 -136%)April Mist |
33/1(-136%) | (3) April Mist 33/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; below form well beaten in Marwell Stakes (Listed) at Naas latest; in good form prior; wide draw; effective 5f, acts on good; bit more needed at this level. Promising Naas debut in June was quickly followed by a Bellewstown maiden win at this trip (good); unable to handle step up to Listed company on latest and needs to find more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (3/1 -20%)Concorde Landed |
3/1(-20%) | (7) Concorde Landed 3/1, Bit below debut promise, market expected better when fourth beaten 4 1/4l in Marwell Stakes (Listed) at Naas latest; hood first time; trainer in form; effective 5f, acts on good; more to come and not ruled out giving this level a second chance. Sioux Nation filly made favourable first impression with a 5l Naas maiden win last month but ran below expectations (favourite) in Fillies' Listed over same C\u0026D 18 days later, keen to post and not quite getting home when fourth to a stablemate; tried hooded now and remains capable of better.. |

9th (10) (125/1 -279%)The Baddie |
125/1(-279%) | (10) The Baddie 125/1, 2 Apr; Space Traveller filly; half-sister to Miami Hills, fair at 6f, and Serce, useful at 6f; dam smart at 6f; wide draw; looks an unlikely winner thrown into the deep end on debut. Space Traveller half-sister to Polish 6f 2yo winner Serce; dam Listed-placed 5f winner (RPR 92), half-sister to winners Brooklands Bay (8.6f 2yo) and Majestic Timeline (5f); likely outsider of the yard's trio of runners, all the better for the experience.. |

250/1(-100%) | (9) Stellar Path 250/1, Below form down the field in a nursery at Sligo most recent; speed in pedigree; very hard to make a case for here. Yet to trouble the judge in four runs; looks out of her depth here.. |

Trained on the Curragh, ARMOR SUPREME has shown a high level of ability in three runs in Britain. After a debut win at Goodwood, she was touched off in a Listed contest at York and was last seen when ninth in the Queen Mary. Her four-length defeat on that occasion is strong form, with that Royal Ascot Group 2 working out very well. Grayrobin is on a hat-trick and had Star Prospect (now 5lb better off) back in third when making all at Cork. An impressive debut winner at Naas, Concorde Landed was too free when fourth to a more experienced stablemate in a Listed race at the same venue and may benefit from the application of a hood.

1st (7) (4/5 +60%)Village Dream |
4/5(+60%) | (7) Village Dream 4/5, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; too much to do but shaped well well beaten in a Ladies bumper at Killarney only start; trainer in form; effective 2m1f, acts on good; can build on debut if ridden a bit more positively. Half-sister to some smart performers; showed ability when making late headway to be beaten 11.5l into fifth on debut at Killarney 31 days ago; hails from top yard; improvement expected and should be thereabouts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (2/1 +50%)Myluckymaker |
2/1(+50%) | (4) Myluckymaker 2/1, Yard won this last year; went clear, improved under aggressive ride when second beaten 8l in a Mares bumper at Clonmel latest; returning from a break; stays 2m1f, acts on yielding; steadily progressive. Stepped forward with each of her three stars for Adrian Murray; 8l second to subsequent winner at Clonmel (2m4f, yielding) 124 days ago having raced with enthusiasm in the lead in first-time hood; looks solid form and drop in trip should help on stable debut; hood left off; leading player.. |

3rd (5) (66/1 -371%)Pamelaisbrass |
66/1(-371%) | (5) Pamelaisbrass 66/1, Outpaced, improved up in trip beaten 4 1/2l in a Mares bumper at Sligo last time; effective 2m2f, acts on good; may get further over hurdles but place claims if getting stiff test here. Didn't show a great deal in first three runs but much improved when beaten 4.5l into sixth at Sligo (extended 2m2f, good) 10 days ago; could be flattered by that however and needs to build on it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (14/1 -27%)Bluebell Breeze |
14/1(-27%) | (11) Bluebell Breeze 14/1, Ran to form well beaten in a Mares bumper at Galway latest; effective 2m on sound surface; drops in class but needs more. Decent fourth over C\u0026D on debut but followed up with poor effort at Cork; more like it last time when beaten 15.5l into seventh at Galway (extended 2m, good) keeping on; each-way shout.. |

5th (10) (20/1 -150%)Anna Quaintance |
20/1(-150%) | (10) Anna Quaintance 20/1, 12,000 euros Waldgeist filly; half-sister placed over 1m on Flat in Czech Republic; yard has had recent bumper winner; watch betting. A 12,000euros foal; half-sister to Czech 6f 2yo winner Dantawi; unraced dam closely related to useful 7f/1m winner Akira, half-sister to 1m1f Flat/2m hurdle winner Halling Gal, out of unraced half-sister to 1m2f Group 3 winner Husyan; bred to be sharp; yard gets bumper winners.. |

6th (2) (100/1 -100%)Lockeen Rose |
100/1(-100%) | (2) Lockeen Rose 100/1, Slipped up coming down the straight in a Mares bumper at Thurles latest; best watched for now. Slipped up when struggling on debut at Thurles; off 239 days; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (66/1 -313%)Frau Blucher |
66/1(-313%) | (1) Frau Blucher 66/1, 3,000 euros Blue Bresil mare; half-sister to Knot Another One, moderate at 16f; yard has had bumper winner here this year but likely best watched. 3,000euros foal by Blue Bresil; dam unraced half-sister to winners Croco Bay (smart 2m-2m3f hurdle/chase) and Thistle Do Nicely (useful bumper and 2m-2m4f hurdle/chase); yard had bumper winner here in May.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (80/1 -300%)A Chairde Go Leir |
80/1(-300%) | (9) A Chairde Go Leir 80/1, 1,400 euros Valirann filly whose dam was unraced; stable has had recent bumper winner but probably best watched. A 1,400 euros foal; dam unraced half-sister to 3m hurdle/chase winner Lunar Contact, out of unraced sister to Champion Bumper and smart 2m2f-2m4f hurdle/chase winner Briar Hill; decent pedigree and market can guide on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (14/1 -56%)Super Freak |
14/1(-56%) | (6) Super Freak 14/1, Needed run down the field in a Ladies bumper at Killarney most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; debut form franked at Listed level, should come on for latest. Showed ability on debut when beaten 16l in good Galway bumper a year ago; backwards step when returned from long absence at Killarney 31 days ago, beaten 21l; market expected better; should come on for that and not to be dismissed based on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (12) (13/2 -18%)The Two Mary's |
13/2(-18%) | (12) The Two Mary's 13/2, Promising effort behind useful pair 13l third in a bumper at Galway most recent run; effective 2m, acts on good; debut form looks solid, should progress. Didn't complete in two point-to-points but outran odds when third past the post (demoted to fourth) at Galway 14 days ago; she was probably flattered by proximity but the first two are potentially smart so it was a positive effort; good chance here in winnable race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (18/1 +28%)Moot Hall |
18/1(+28%) | (3) Moot Hall 18/1, Masked Marvel mare; half-sister to Down To The Sea, fair at 16f; dam a winner over 1m on Flat; market should reveal more. Dam unraced half-sister to 2m chase winner Majorica King and French 1m7f hurdle/2m1f chase winner Six Fois Sept, out of Listed-placed 1m2f winner; market can dictate expectations on debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (8) (125/1 -279%)Winnie Mcgoogan |
125/1(-279%) | (8) Winnie Mcgoogan 125/1, Elusive Pimpernel mare; half-sister to Break The Boundary, fair at 20f; dam moderate at 12f but a point winner; may need more time. Elusive Pimpernel mare; half-sister to point winner Break The Boundary; dam point winner, half-sister to 5f 2yo winner Cloudea; not an obvious type on paper to make a winning debut.. |

VILLAGE DREAM posted a respectable effort on her debut at Killarney and the Willie Mullins-trained mare gets the vote based on her potential to improve for her high-profile yard. Myluckymaker is more experienced and is one to keep an eye on in the betting on the back of a fair second at Clonmel when last seen. She debuts for new connections here and support in the betting would be noteworthy. The Two Mary's and Bluebell Breeze complete the shortlist.

1st (1) (5/1 -43%)Massimo Blue |
5/1(-43%) | (1) Massimo Blue 5/1, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Wolverhampton last time; suited by 5/6f, best on AW; competitive last twice, can go well again. New trainer decides against the cheekpieces (and regular tongue-tie) that worked well for this 4yo in his last two races, when he had the outside stall at Kempton and raced wide throughout at Wolverhampton (again over 6f); C\u0026D winner with a good chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (12/1 -140%)Toptime |
12/1(-140%) | (4) Toptime 12/1, Scored by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Nottingham penultimate start; ran to form third beaten 1/2l off 61 last time, same mark here; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and a sound surface; can go well again here. Made all at Nottingham (5f, soft) and bang there on starts either side of that, beaten under a length; solid chance with C\u0026D form to his name.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (10/1 -67%)On Key |
10/1(-67%) | (8) On Key 10/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 5lb lower mark at Wolverhampton three starts back; ran to form second beaten 1/2l off 56 last time, 3lb higher here; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts best on firmer ground and AW; can go well again in current mood. Only 1-26 but that win was three runs back over 7f at Wolverhampton and it had been coming; has continued to run well and 6f is fine, as is this track.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (5/1 +58%)Big Apple Jack |
5/1(+58%) | (12) Big Apple Jack 5/1, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Doncaster last time; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; needs a bit more. No wins in 14 but twice runner-up this year over 6f and tried 7f last time, running another fair race; could drop lucky one day.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (25/1 +0%)Orange Emperor |
25/1(+0%) | (6) Orange Emperor 25/1, Below form beaten 9l in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; needs to bounce back. No wins in nine; has gone close in 6f/7f handicaps (one on Polytrack) but prone to off days, as he reminded us last time at Yarmouth.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (33/1 -175%)Ahead Of Fashion |
33/1(-175%) | (9) Ahead Of Fashion 33/1, Bit keen, found little beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Salisbury last time; off a short-break; suited by 6/7f, acts on any; mark easing but has been out of sorts. Regressive maiden who continues to race freely, so dropping back from 7f might be no bad thing; wouldn't be the percentage play, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (10/3 +72%)Tough Enough |
10/3(+72%) | (2) Tough Enough 10/3, Below form beaten 8l in a handicap at York last time; effective at 6/7f, acts on sound surface; mark continues to ease, but appears to be no end to lengthy losing streak in sight. Three-time winner but 0-13 since moving yards and doesn't look about to put that right.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (16/1 +20%)Lesley's Boy |
16/1(+20%) | (3) Lesley's Boy 16/1, Below form again beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Carlisle last time; off a short-break; effective 6f, acts on good and AW; inconsistent and needs to prove retains earlier ability. Best form was as a 2yo when twice successful; falling in the weights but this season hasn't got up and running.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (5/1 +23%)Federal Envoy |
5/1(+23%) | (7) Federal Envoy 5/1, Step back in the right direction beaten 5l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; effective 6/7f, best form on AW; needs to build on latest. All three wins have been here but over 7f and for different yards; however, close up on stable debut over 6f at Ripon and last run wasn't too bad as he was never in the right place at Lingfield; don't put a line through him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (33/1 -230%)Starsong |
33/1(-230%) | (14) Starsong 33/1, Ran to form back up in trip beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Pontefract last time; top course trainer; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface, goes well at Brighton; inconsistent but on a good mark if building on latest. Inconsistency has crept in but she ran really well from a bad draw at Pontefract last time (6f) and has won here before.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (13) (40/1 -21%)Great Success |
40/1(-21%) | (13) Great Success 40/1, Below form again beaten 5l in a handicap at Leicester last time; wide draw; effective at 6/7f, acts on fast ground and AW; mark easing, but needs a lot more. Left the Faheys for 3,500gns as an eight-race maiden; needs to halt the slide in his form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (11) (14/1 -87%)Torfrida |
14/1(-87%) | (11) Torfrida 14/1, Below best again beaten 3 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark here last time; off a short-break; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; needs a lot more. Sole win was in 2023 but she's lightly raced for a 6yo; ran on late over 5f here two months ago when making AW debut after nearly a year off; if sharper for that, and returning to her winning trip, she should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (100/1 -52%)Southern Warrior |
100/1(-52%) | (5) Southern Warrior 100/1, Well below form well beaten in a handicap at Nottingham latest; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; hasn't beat a rival last twice. Won off 3lb higher over 6f on the AW for previous yard; unplaced so far for current one, offering little in last two races.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (10) (22/1 -38%)Blackjack |
22/1(-38%) | (10) Blackjack 22/1, Returned to form beaten a length off a 1lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 6/7f, acts on AW; well below last winning mark. Has won on turf but better on the AW and gave it a good go under a front-running ride last month at Wolverhampton (7f; just behind On Key); better known for his exploits at this trip; an exposed 9yo but not without hope.. |

Massimo Blue was knocking on the door when with previous connections and a change of scenery could bring about some improvement on his stable bow. Dylan Cunha's charge isn't taken lightly, but TOPTIME is slightly more appealing reverting to 6f. The veteran arrives on the back of a close-up third over 5f at Beverley and Joe Bradnam's 3lb allowance may prove invaluable. On Key and Blackjack are others of note in their current vein of form.

1st (1) (6/4 -36%)High Degree |
6/4(-36%) | (1) High Degree 6/4, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Newmarket (July) last time; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; effective 8-10, act on most; consistent, proved stamina latest, can return to winning way. 0-7 in handicaps and expensive to follow but he's run some big races this season, most recently second of six at Newmarket (1m2f, good to firm) behind a well-handicapped winner; wears first-time cheekpieces and can be bang there off the same mark as last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (14/1 +22%)Financer |
14/1(+22%) | (7) Financer 14/1, Scored by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Redcar three starts back; below form seventh beaten 9l off 77 last time, 1lb lower here; top course trainer; suited by 8-10f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing, but may still be on the stiff side. Won four-runner handicap at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) last month and close fourth of 15 at York (1m, good to firm) next time; caught wide early and failed to settle when mid-division in competitive handicap at Haydock (1m, good) last Saturday so that run can be forgiven; not discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (15/2 -25%)Shoof Baeed |
15/2(-25%) | (6) Shoof Baeed 15/2, Didn't stay up in trip and class beaten 6 1/4l in a novice at Doncaster last time; effective 10f, acts on a sound surface; can bounce back returned to this distance on handicap debut. Made all at 15-2 on debut at Redcar (1m2f, good) in June and faded into sixth of eight in warm novice at Doncaster (1m4f, good to firm) last month, having failed to settle; this very lightly raced 3yo could be suited by the return to 1m2f on his handicap debut and he's a possible player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (11/2 +66%)Mr Seagull |
11/2(+66%) | (8) Mr Seagull 11/2, Bit below recent form beaten 6l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; visor first time; stays up to 10f, acts on a sound surface; mark easing, but more needed over this distance. Yet to pose a serious threat this season and unproven at the trip, but he kept on well for fifth in a hot race at Ascot (1m, good to firm) two starts ago, and he didn't run badly in a big-field 3yo handicap at Glorious Goodwood (1m, good to firm) last time; not ruled out in first-time visor.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (3/1 +60%)Ammes |
3/1(+60%) | (2) Ammes 3/1, Ran to form beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; effective 10-14f, acts on both sides of good; generally consistent, chance if putting best foot forwards. Runner-up off 1lb higher at Redcar (1m2f, good to firm) in April and he's run respectably on his three starts since; this is less competitive than those last three outings and he might not be far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (25/1 -56%)Without Compromise |
25/1(-56%) | (4) Without Compromise 25/1, Returned to form beaten 3 1/4l off this mark here last time; best at 10f, acts well on a sound surface and AW; looks to be on a stiff mark. Three 1m2f wins on Newcastle AW towards the end of last year and he returned from a break and wind surgery to finish second over C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; he was no match for the winner Jez Bomb but is 7lb better off today and is not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (8/1 -60%)Jez Bomb |
8/1(-60%) | (3) Jez Bomb 8/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 3 1/4l off a 7lb lower mark here last time; effective 8-10f, acts on a sound surface; admirably consistent, loves this track, can go very well again despite another rise. Won here (1m, good) in June on first course visit; no match for the winner when second here (1m, good to firm) next time but he returned to winning ways in commanding fashion over today's C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; a 7lb rise takes him to a career-high mark but he has to be respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (80/1 -186%)Farasi Lane |
80/1(-186%) | (5) Farasi Lane 80/1, Scored by a head off this mark at Ripon three starts back; ran to form third beaten 6l off 79 last time; effective 7-10f, acts on a sound surface and AW; more needed at this level. 8yo who won off this mark on his stable debut at Ripon (1m, good) last month; two reasonable performances have followed (1m/1m2f, good to firm/good) but he needs something extra to come out on top today.. |

HIGH DEGREE has undoubtedly been expensive to follow and is not without his flaws. However, he is still unexposed over 1m2f and hasn't done too much wrong in his four starts since being gelded. The addition of cheekpieces could provide the missing ingredient and the son of Too Darn Hot is worth one more chance. Jez Bomb and Farasi Lane have been in good form of late and can make this another good test. The three-year-old Shoof Baeed is another of interest on his handicap debut.

9/2(+10%) | (5) Harry's Hill 9/2, Took a step forward beaten 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; on a competitive mark based on old efforts, can go well again. Nine-time winner, including twice over C\u0026D; no joy yet this season, going closest on latest when staying on well into second late on behind 0.5l winner Mary Shoelaces over C\u0026D last month on ground on the quick side for him; nice turn around in the weights with that rival, with rider now claiming.. |

2nd (2) (12/1 -20%)Soulful Diva |
12/1(-20%) | (2) Soulful Diva 12/1, Below form beaten 10l in a handicap at Naas last time; effective 5/6f, acts on very soft, good and AW; mark easing, but needs more. Won 5f Cork maiden a year ago (good) and didn't reappear until last month, encouraging comeback run at Fairyhouse (6f) but didn't get home at Naas three weeks later over same trip; return to 5f should suit and handicapper has dropped her 4lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (4/1 +0%)Bold Optimist |
4/1(+0%) | (4) Bold Optimist 4/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark at Naas last time; suited by 5f, acts on a sound surface and AW; still on a very competitive mark based on old efforts, in good form currently, big chance here. Two-time turf winner in 2024, including over C\u0026D; good AW run last winter and fine return from over three months' absence when second at Naas last month off reduced mark (third has won since); definite player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (5/1 +17%)Mary Shoelaces |
5/1(+17%) | (1) Mary Shoelaces 5/1, Returned to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; suited by 5f, acts with cut and on a sound surface; loves it here, but on a career-high mark. Three of her four wins have come over C\u0026D, including for second successive year last month when making much of running in beating Harry's Hill 0.5l on good-to-firm (Happy Henry fifth) under today's rider; 6lb rise but has to be respected given her record here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (18/1 -80%)Ballysax Lil' Mick |
18/1(-80%) | (10) Ballysax Lil' Mick 18/1, Bit below best form beaten 5l in a handicap at Naas last time; off a short-break; effective at 5f, acts on a sound surface and AW; still 3lb above last winning mark, needs more. Got off the mark at Tipperary a year ago over this trip; hasn't added to that, short of room when last seen at Naas in late June; handicapper giving him every chance (1lb wrong).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (100/1 -203%)Pure Valour |
100/1(-203%) | (11) Pure Valour 100/1, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap at Fairyhouse most recent; bred to be a sprinter; big, workmanlike sort, needs more dropped back in trip. Lightly raced 4yo finished stone last on last month's handicap debut over 1m; speedily-bred so could improve for this marked drop in trip; 2lb wrong. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (8/1 +11%)Arctic Steps |
8/1(+11%) | (3) Arctic Steps 8/1, Closer to form beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Naas last time; wide draw; suited by 5f, acts on good and AW, goes well up front; inconsistent, needs more again. Was gaining second turf win when scoring over this trip at Naas in May off 68; safely held both starts since, latest over same C\u0026D so needs to improve; jockey booking encouraging.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (50/1 +0%)Heart Of Eternity |
50/1(+0%) | (9) Heart Of Eternity 50/1, Ran to current poor level down the field in a handicap at Cork most recent; effective 7f/8f, acts on good and good to firm; appears to have lost all earlier ability. Godolphin cast-off; rated 74 after making the frame on all three starts for Charlie Appleby; now down to 56 after being tried over various trips this term; cheekpieces tried.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (10/3 +39%)Happy Henry |
10/3(+39%) | (6) Happy Henry 10/3, Scored by 1 1/2l off a 9lb lower mark at Bellewstown penultimate start; ran to form up in class fifth beaten 2l off 67 last time, same mark here; trainer in form; wide draw; effective at 5/6f, acts with cut and on a sound surface; progressive sort, current rating asks more but continue to go well. In good form this summer over this trip on quick ground, winning at Navan and Bellewstown; not a bad effort after aggregate 17lb rise when under 2l off Mary Shoelaces over C\u0026D last month, staying on after briefly short of room; respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (12) (40/1 -150%)Lady Landhort |
40/1(-150%) | (12) Lady Landhort 40/1, Down the field in a handicap at Cork most recent; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; good bit to prove on grass now. Sole success came in 6f Dundalk handicap in March off 49; has changed yards since fair turf effort at Down Royal in late May; 3lb wrong here; last of 12 at Cork on Friday on first start for this stable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (12/1 +25%)Surpass And Shine |
12/1(+25%) | (7) Surpass And Shine 12/1, Well below form first start after being gelded down the field in a handicap at Fairyhouse most recent; effective 5-7f, acts on a sound surface; back below last winning mark, but needs a lot more. Dual winner over this trip last season at Naas and Down Royal; gelded on the back of a couple of poor runs and return to 7f backfired at Fairyhouse on latest; questions to answer at this stage although handicapper quick to relent and 1lb below last winning mark now.. |

BOLD OPTIMIST last visited the winner's enclosure after taking a C&D contest just over two years ago. He has slipped a long way in the ratings and, on his first start of the turf season, shaped with plenty of encouragement when second at Naas last month. Harry's Hill almost made the most of a declining mark when chasing home Mary Shoelaces here a month ago and, on these terms, can turn around form with the winner. Just in behind that pair was Happy Henry and he also makes the shortlist having shown a consistent level of form in similar contests this season.

1st (2) (2/1 +11%)Fluorescence |
2/1(+11%) | (2) Fluorescence 2/1, Returned to form beaten a short-neck off a 2lb lower mark at Hamilton last time; trainer in form; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and a sound surface; very useful handicapper, close in a Listed race at Ayr three starts back, can go well again here. Found a Group 3 too much at York last month but she was a very close third when back in a handicap at Hamilton (5f, good) a fortnight ago; she was denied a clear run last time and this progressive 4yo could be firmly in the mix up 2lb.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (5/2 +55%)Badri |
5/2(+55%) | (1) Badri 5/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 3lb lower mark here penultimate start; below form 13th beaten 7l off 99 last time, same mark here; suited by 5/6f, acts on any; competitive mark still and can return to form at track where completed recent hat-trick. He couldn't get into it in a big field at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last Monday but he didn't enjoy an ideal passage and went there on a four-timer following three wins here (6f/5f, good/good to firm); this 9yo could play a leading role back at Pontefract.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (6/1 +25%)Baker Blue |
6/1(+25%) | (3) Baker Blue 6/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Goodwood last time; effective at 5/6f, former suits best, acts on sound surface, best form on AW; in good form, but bit more needed at this level. Front-runner who was overhauled by Badri when runner-up over C\u0026D (good to firm) last month and he again ran well when sixth of 18 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good to firm); this is less competitive; he can make a bold bid.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/1 -38%)Kylian |
9/1(-38%) | (5) Kylian 9/1, Outpaced, not knocked about when beaten beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Ascot last time; visor first time; effective 5/6f, acts on any but suited by AW; mark easing but out of form, needs more. His mark continues to fall and there were promising signs at Newcastle (5f, AW) in June; however, two lesser runs have followed and he has to turn things around in a first-time visor (has worn cheekpieces/blinkers this term).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (7/1 +0%)Rocking Ends |
7/1(+0%) | (4) Rocking Ends 7/1, Scored by 2l off a 6lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) penultimate start; ran to form, better than the bare result fifth beaten 2l off 91 last time, same mark here; suited by 5f, acts on fast ground; back in form, and can go well again here. With this visor back on he won at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) last month, landing that handicap for the third year in succession; not beaten far when fifth of 13 at Ascot (5f, good to firm) since but he's never won off a mark this high and there's a suspicion he'll again be vulnerable.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (12/1 -60%)Vintage Clarets |
12/1(-60%) | (6) Vintage Clarets 12/1, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Goodwood last time; wide draw; suited by 5f, acts on any; 9lb below last winning mark, but looks to need that bit more. Twice went close in June (5f, good to soft) and he ran well once more when close seventh of 23 at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last time; could be in the shake-up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (22/1 -83%)One And Gone |
22/1(-83%) | (7) One And Gone 22/1, Scored by a short-head off a 2lb lower mark at Sandown penultimate start; far too free 13th beaten 7 1/4l off 86 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 5/6f, acts on good and AW, likes soft lead; generally consistent. 3yo who made all in eight-runner handicap at Goodwood (5f, good) in June and rallied to follow up at Sandown (5f, good), beating four rivals; down the field at Glorious Goodwood last time but he's back into a smaller field today and could give it a good go from the front.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (20/1 -43%)Reigning Profit |
20/1(-43%) | (8) Reigning Profit 20/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Ripon three starts back; ran back closer to form 11th beaten 3l off 81 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 5f, acts best on a sound surface; likeable attitude but mark still demands more. Soundly beaten over C\u0026D (good to firm) two runs ago but prior to that he won at Ripon (5f, good), and he posted a respectable effort at Glorious Goodwood (5f, good) last time; he's won here four times; not ruled out.. |

Having finished a close-up third at Hamilton, compensation could be on the cards for FLUORESCENCE. The four-year-old was briefly denied a clear run before staying on nicely and a 2lb nudge up the ratings looks workable. Badri recorded a course hat-trick here prior to finishing down the field at Windsor and an improved performance would come as no surprise. The veteran is feared most, ahead of Baker Blue, who arrives on the back of a solid sixth at Glorious Goodwood.

1st (3) (9/2 -35%)Letsbefrank |
9/2(-35%) | (3) Letsbefrank 9/2, Scored by 3/4l off a 5lb lower mark at Hamilton three starts back; ran to form sixth beaten 4 1/4l off 78 last time, same mark here; off a short-break; effective 12-16f, acts on most; still on workable mark but attitude a slight concern. Ridden this season by Lauren Young; won at Musselburgh (1m4f) and Hamilton (1m3f) on first two starts, with a good third at Thirsk (1m4f) next time, all on good ground; shaped as if still in form in a steadily run race on latest outing; this good season (better than 2025) has been over much shorter but he did win this race on good to firm in 2024; not dismissed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (6/4 +25%)Campeona |
6/4(+25%) | (6) Campeona 6/4, Keeps improving, completed hat-trick landing a handicap by a neck off a 2lb lower mark at Lingfield last time; trainer in form; effective 12-16f, acts on fast ground; progressive and unexposed as a stayer, can complete four-timer. Much improved since hiked up in trip and switched to handicaps, winning small-field events on fast ground when long odds-on at Bath (1m6f), Newbury (2m) and Lingfield (2m) on last three outings; raised another 2lb; can hang and carry head awkwardly but she keeps finding more when it matters and today's even greater test of stamina should suit her well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (3/1 +40%)Pole Star |
3/1(+40%) | (1) Pole Star 3/1, Step back in the right direction beaten 2l off this mark at Ascot last time; stays 2m, acts on any turf; mark easing and generally consistent, drop in grade will suit. Two disappointing runs before a much more competitive show, still below form, when fifth of ten off this reduced mark in 2m Shergar Cup race at Ascot eight days ago; still needs to perk up somewhat but this is a drop back in class.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (17/2 +15%)Treasure Islands |
17/2(+15%) | (5) Treasure Islands 17/2, Scored by 1 1/2l off this mark at Catterick in June; bit below best seventh beaten 7l off 71 last time; top course trainer; stays at least 2m, acts on a sound surface; had been progressing earlier in the campaign, back on last winning mark, but needs to bounce back. Won at Ripon (2m, good) in April and Catterick (2m, good to firm) in June but he's not been as good at Newcastle or York (twice) since; back to his last winning mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (5/1 -43%)Sixty Plus |
5/1(-43%) | (4) Sixty Plus 5/1, Ran to form, completed hat-trick landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Nottingham last time; effective 12-14f on Flat, should stay further based on hurdles form, acts on good to firm; in very good form and can go well again up in trip despite another rise. Reeled off four straight hurdle wins last summer before losing his way; switched to the Flat this summer and he's now 3-3 in Flat handicaps, having won on good to firm at Thirsk (1m4f), Lingfield (1m6f) and Nottingham (1m6f) in the space of a week last month; the last of those wins was much more hard fought, by a neck, and he's another 3lb higher today but 2m+ is plausible and he might yet do better still.. |

Sixty Plus was made to work hard when completing a hat-trick over 1m6f at Nottingham and he could prove vulnerable off 3lb higher in the ratings. For all that this step up in distance might unlock more improvement in James Owen's gelding, CAMPEONA rates as the one to beat. The three-year-old scored a shade cosily at Lingfield and there is every chance that a four-timer beckons. The down-in-class Pole Star is worth a second look too.

1st (6) (10/1 -18%)The Good Biscuit |
10/1(-18%) | (6) The Good Biscuit 10/1, Scored by 1 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark here penultimate start; bit below form sixth beaten 4 1/4l off 83 last time, 2lb lower here; effective 6/7f, acts on any; had been thriving, mark of latest could have been too stiff, can bounce back. Won at Catterick (6f, good to firm) last month and beat three rivals to follow up over this C\u0026D (good to firm); not written off after just one lesser run but he was only sixth of eight behind Alfa Whiteburd over C\u0026D (good to firm) 11 days ago and has to bounce back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (11/2 +31%)Havana Rum |
11/2(+31%) | (7) Havana Rum 11/2, Below form beaten 5l in a handicap at York last time; suited by 5/6f, acts on most turf and AW; in form until latest, needs to bounce back. A touch below par at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago but third of 19 there (6f, good to firm) two starts ago and he has an eyecatching record at Pontefract, having made the frame on each of his last five visits; firmly in calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (28/1 -155%)Fiscal Policy |
28/1(-155%) | (9) Fiscal Policy 28/1, Scored by 2l off a 3lb lower mark here in June; still below best sixth beaten 4l off 74 last time, 2lb lower here; wide draw; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; C&D winner, but still 3lb above that mark and looks stiff enough. Below best on his last three starts but his recent Newmarket sixth was a step back in the right direction; made it 2-2 here when winning over C\u0026D (good) in June and well worth a second look now back here.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (5/2 +17%)Veblen Good |
5/2(+17%) | (1) Veblen Good 5/2, Ran to form beaten a length off this mark at York last time; top course jockey; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; big chance dropping down a class at scene of only career win on this competitive mark. Won on stable/seasonal debut over C\u0026D (good) in April and he ran really well in defeat last month, beaten only 1l when fourth of 21 at York (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago; solid contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (7/1 -8%)Yes I'm Mali |
7/1(-8%) | (5) Yes I'm Mali 7/1, Bit below form beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at York last time; suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface; form a bit up and down but chance if at best. Twice went close last month at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) then ran pretty well when seventh of 21 at York (6f, good to firm) most recently; this is less competitive than last time and he could be thereabouts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (5/2 +17%)Alfa Whiteburd |
5/2(+17%) | (2) Alfa Whiteburd 5/2, Ran to form, completed hat-trick landing a handicap by 2l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; thriving of late, looks like could still be ahead of mark. Easily capitalised on a reduced mark at Chester (7f, good) last month and he's made all over this C\u0026D on both starts since (good to firm); this 5yo is up to a career-high mark but has never been better and could prove tough to catch once more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (9/1 +18%)Rare Change |
9/1(+18%) | (3) Rare Change 9/1, Scored by a nose off a 2lb lower mark at Goodwood penultimate start; bit below form up in class seventh beaten 3l off 84 last time, same mark here; trainer in form; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on soft, a sound surface and AW; still looks on a competitive mark, could bounce back. Inconsistent but he won at Goodwood (7f, soft) in June and wasn't beaten far when seventh of 17 at York (7f, good to firm) last time; his career-best performance came when winning easily over C\u0026D (good) last June and he's an intriguing candidate back here; capable of playing a leading role.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (18/1 -112%)Russet Gold |
18/1(-112%) | (4) Russet Gold 18/1, Ran about to current level beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Ascot last time; suited by 6f, acts on most; handicapper is relenting but form has tailed off, needs more. Encouraging start for this yard with two fifth-place finishes off higher marks in the spring; however, his form has gone the wrong way subsequently and he needs to turn things around.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (100/1 -100%)Mondammej |
100/1(-100%) | (8) Mondammej 100/1, Much below form beaten 9 1/2l in a handicap at Thirsk last time; effective 5/6f, suited by a sound surface and AW; needs to bounce back. 9yo who has dropped down the weights and showed spark when second of four at Nottingham last month; however, well beaten at Thirsk since and he's winless on turf since September 2021; others appeal more.. |

Alfa Whiteburd is likely to prove popular given his current run of form and it would be folly to rule out a fourth straight triumph. However, a rise in class demands another career best from the five-year-old and it could be worth siding with VEBLEN GOOD. David O'Meara's charge arrives on the back of a good fourth in the Sky Bet Dash and he makes plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark. Stablemate and reopposing seventh Yes I'm Mali is a live each-way alternative.

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.
