13:55 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (1.88/1 -7%) Line Of Descent	1.88 1.88/1(-7%)	(4) Line Of Descent 1.88/1, Has taken well to fences, winning handicaps at Stratford and Cartmel in recent months. Had his winning run ended at 2 but again ran well on the back on an 8 lb rise when runner-up at Uttoxeter (20f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Looks sure to go well again. Two wins this spring and probably no disgrace in latest defeat; live contender.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/1 +36%) Glajou	9 9/1(+36%)	(3) Glajou 9/1, Fair chaser but he's not the most straightforward. Cashed in on a reduced mark at Worcester last summer but not scaled same heights on 4 of his 5 starts since, finding little at Worcester at Ffos Las (16f, good) 30 days ago. Remains easy to oppose. Won off 4lb higher last August but no real danger since; up in trip.
3	6 3rd (6) (3.5/1 +0%) Annie Nail	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(6) Annie Nail 3.5/1, Got the better of a dual subsequent winner when opening chase account at Fontwell (19.5f) around this time last year and stepped up on reappearance when runner-up at Uttoxeter (20f, good) 18 days ago, albeit making her effort sooner than ideal. In the mix. Probably needs improvement if she's to win in this company.
4	5 4th (5) (3.5/1 +0%) Do No Wrong	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(5) Do No Wrong 3.5/1, Hurdles winner at Sedgefield in August 2021. Lightly raced in the last couple of years but left his chase bow well behind when winning at Cartmel 4 weeks ago but failed to complete a fortnight on at Bangor (24f, good). Can feature with a clear round. Cartmel winner two starts ago and well in touch when falling latest; could atone.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (4.5/1 +10%) Fire Away	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(1) Fire Away 4.5/1, Added to his tally at Cartmel last year but failed to justify support refitted with headgear in a much stronger edition of that corresponding event (21.2f, good) in May. Got a little bit closer at Bangor (20.3f, good) since and is lurking on a dangerous mark. Hasn't found his best this year; on a good mark if he could bounce back.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (16/1 -33%) I'm So Busy	16 16/1(-33%)	(2) I'm So Busy 16/1, In good form during summer 2021, winning 2m Uttoxeter maiden/novice hurdles. Ended that season out of sorts and returns after15 months off with attentions switched to the larger obstacles. Absent since well beaten over hurdles 15 months ago; chasing debut.

LTO Selection:

Do No Wrong couldn't live up to his name last time when falling at the 11th fence at Bangor over 3m. However, if he can reproduce the form of his penultimate effort at Cartmel, then he ought to go close. However, the vote goes to ANNIE NAIL, who was only beaten just over three lengths into second last time at Uttoxeter in this grade. Line Of Descent isn't ruled out either.

LINE OF DESCENT was denied the hat-trick by a thriving sort at Uttoxeter 9 days ago, but this looks a good opportunity for Warren Greatrex's 5-y-o to regain the winning thread at the expense of Do No Wrong, who scored over fences second time up and is fancied to get back of track having taken a spill mid-race at Bangor last time. Annie Nail looks best of the remainder.

The in-form Line Of Descent may not cope with the progressive DO NO WRONG.

14:10 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 10f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (2.25/1 +44%) Khangai	2.25 2.25/1(+44%)	(1) Khangai 2.25/1, 14/1, wasted no time getting back to form when third of 11 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good) 27 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Has mixed record this season but ran well when upped to 1m2f last month.
2	6 2nd (6) (2.12/1 +23%) Brabusach	2.12 2.12/1(+23%)	(6) Brabusach 2.12/1, 5/1, again ran creditably when second of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Expected to be bang there upped to this trip for the first time. Second to next-time-out winner over 8.3f this month; big player if new trip suits.
3	5 3rd (5) (22/1 +27%) Mont Vallon	22 22/1(+27%)	(5) Mont Vallon 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fared no better when seventh of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 22/1) 16 days ago. Up in trip. Others more persuasive. Unplaced all five starts, most recently in 1m handicap this month; up in trip again here.
4	10 4th (10) (11/1 +21%) Angel De Luz	11 11/1(+21%)	(10) Angel De Luz 11/1, Blinkered for 1st time, too free when third of 4 in minor event at Brighton (11.9f, good to firm, 9/1) 13 days ago. Will need to settle much better to feature. Ran quite well in Leicester handicap last month but well beaten in basement grade since.
5th	8 5th (8) (20/1 +33%) Two Plus Two	20 20/1(+33%)	(8) Two Plus Two 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, never a threat when sixth of 7 on handicap debut at Wetherby (8f, good to firm) 13 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Detached in rear for most of handicap debut (1m) but did at least make some late headway.
6th	9 6th (9) (6/1 -9%) Yesisaidyes	6 6/1(-9%)	(9) Yesisaidyes 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fared no better under less testing condition when ninth of 10 in maiden at Leicester (8.2f, good, 150/1) 20 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Makes handicap debut. May well do better given his smart pedigree. Beaten 20l+ in three warm maidens this spring; ought to fare much better here.
7th	2 7th (2) (8.5/1 +29%) Man Made Of Smoke	8.5 8.5/1(+29%)	(2) Man Made Of Smoke 8.5/1, Sole success came at Wolverhampton in May. 16/1, below form after just 4 days off when fifth of 6 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good) 20 days ago. Belatedly opened account on AW in May but didn't fire last time; others preferred.
8th	4 8th (4) (7.5/1 -7%) Fantastic Artist	7.5 7.5/1(-7%)	(4) Fantastic Artist 7.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fared no better after 5 months off when ninth of 11 in minor event (200/1) at Newbury (7f, good) 38 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Well beaten outsider in three novice races but might get more competitive in this handicap.

LTO Selection:

The form of BRABUSACH's most recent second at Nottingham has worked out very well with two winners since, and he must hold every chance if building on that career-best effort. Ivan Furtado's charge gets the vote ahead of Zakram and Khangai, who has been knocking on the door of late and ran well on his first attempt over this distance at Leicester.

This can go to BRABUSACH, who bumped into one at the top of his game at Nottingham just over 3 weeks ago and, with this longer trip holding no fears, he's taken to open his account. The main danger could emerge from Yesisaidyes, who hasn't shown much so far but may well take a step forward now handicapping given his smart pedigree. Khangai and Man Made of Smoke can fight out third spot.

This might go to BRABUSACH, who chased home an improved performer at Nottingham three weeks ago. Yesisaidyes is feared most.

14:10 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 10f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:25 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (3/1 -50%) Getaway Jewel	3 3/1(-50%)	(3) Getaway Jewel 3/1, Landed a Market Rasen double (both 17.2f) under Brian Hughes last summer and, reunited with Hughes, back to form when runner-up at Newcastle last time. Remains 3 lb below his last winning mark so he's not taken lightly. Back to form with Newcastle second last month; goes best for Brian Hughes; chances.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 -100%) Jet Of Dreams	4 4/1(-100%)	(2) Jet Of Dreams 4/1, Won his only start in points easily and has shown promise in 4 starts over hurdles so far, again not knocked about when fifth of 8 in novice at Ffos Las last month. Capable of better now making his handicap debut over fences. Major player. Chasing/handicap debut and has shown enough over hurdles to be of strong interest.
3	5 3rd (5) (3.2/1 +9%) Uncle O	3.2 3.2/1(+9%)	(5) Uncle O 3.2/1, Placed off slightly higher marks last season and runner-up on his return at Fakenham at the beginning of the month, though not always fluent with his jumping. Capable of getting involved, but may just remain remain vulnerable for win purposes. Fair second on return from a break/wind surgery but vulnerable for win purposes.
4	4 4th (4) (8.5/1 +53%) Punches Cross	8.5 8.5/1(+53%)	(4) Punches Cross 8.5/1, Useful handicap chaser at best for Joseph Patrick O'Brien but form has gone the wrong way for his current trainer, off 19 months prior to showing little in 3 starts in 2022/23. Best watched on return. Has mostly struggled in Britain; back from six months off; worth market check.
1	1 \|U\| (1) (2.5/1 +50%) The Cathal Don	2.5 2.5/1(+50%)	(1) The Cathal Don 2.5/1, Maiden chase winner in Ireland but below that level for Seamus Mullins subsequently in 2021/22. However, after 11 months off he fared better on debut for Richard Bandey when runner-up at Plumpton in February. Lurks on a dangerous mark starting off for new stable. Has proved rather disappointing in Britain; stable debut after being bought for £6,500.

LTO Selection:

GETAWAY JEWEL was only denied by just over two lengths on his latest outing at Newcastle and he was put up 3lb for that effort, which may not be enough to prevent him from recording his fourth career success. Another to consider is Jet Of Dreams, who failed to fire over 2m4f last time but now drops in trip, which could prove a positive move. Uncle O completes the shortlist.

Successful on his sole outing in Irish points, JET OF DREAMS showed promise in 4 starts over hurdles and he remains with potential now sent handicapping on his chase debut. The 5-y-o is taken to open his account under Rules, though Getaway Jewel isn't taken lightly having returned to form under Brian Hughes last time. The Cathal Don is the pick of the remainder.

Chasing newcomer JET OF DREAMS looks open to a deal of progress.

14:45 Chepstow Stakes (Class 5) 10f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (0.57/1 +31%) Karakoy	0.57 0.57/1(+31%)	(4) Karakoy 0.57/1, Ran to a similar level as on debut when second of 10 in maiden (5/2) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 4 months ago, clear of rest. Every chance he can go one better. Fair form when placed in two AW maidens at start of year; in the mix on this turf debut.
2	5 2nd (5) (40/1 +39%) Sonnet Star	40 40/1(+39%)	(5) Sonnet Star 40/1, Poet's Word filly. Closely related to useful 1¼m-1½m winner Lyrical and half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 2m Grey Britain. Wears hood and is a likely outsider. Nice pedigree, but it's always a bit worrying to spot headgear on a newcomer.
3	6 3rd (6) (16/1 -45%) Postergal	16 16/1(-45%)	(6) Postergal 16/1, Proved a let-down upped to a trip that had promised to suit when fifth of 8 in minor event (9/2) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 76 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding (5,500 gns). Could feature should either of the main protagonists fluff their lines. Has claims on her AW fourth in March; left Andrew Balding after poor run in April.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 +25%) Buxlow Boy	12 12/1(+25%)	(3) Buxlow Boy 12/1, Twice-raced maiden. 10/1, ran to a similar level as on debut after 8 months off when fifth of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 27 days ago, slowly away. Hood on 1st time. Displayed minor promise on first two starts; should improve as he gains experience.
5th	2 5th (2) (2.25/1 -25%) Spring Day	2.25 2.25/1(-25%)	(2) Spring Day 2.25/1, Made a winning debut at Chelmsford in September and ran to similar level when fifth of 12 in minor event (15/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 5 months ago, faring best of those held up. Significantly up in trip. Should progress. 6f AW winner in September; not discredited over 7f on second start; hiked up in trip here.
6th	1 6th (1) (40/1 +20%) Run At Dawn	40 40/1(+20%)	(1) Run At Dawn 40/1, Twice-raced maiden on Flat. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, struggling when slithered on landing 4 out and unseated rider in juvenile hurdle (150/1) at Fontwell (17.7f, good) 7 months ago. Best watched. Not seen since failing to complete two juvenile hurdles in the autumn; best watched here.

LTO Selection:

Not beaten far on either of his first two starts, KARAKOY has shown more than enough ability to suggest that he can get off the mark, and the switch to turf should aid his cause. Spring Day disappointed under a winner's penalty at Wolverhampton in January, but he must be of interest on this significant step up in trip, while Buxlow Boy cannot be ruled out either.

This could develop into a match between KARAKOY and Spring Day, with preference for the former after having pulled clear of the remainder when runner-up on his first attempt at this trip at Lingfield back in March. Andrew Balding's filly remains with potential though, and she's sure to give the selection plenty to think about with the extra distance sure to pose no issues. Postergal looks best of the rest.

Andrew Balding's SPRING DAY gained her 2yo win over 6f but connections are evidently keen to move her up in trip. She gets the nod.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (1.62/1 +54%) Cast A Spell	1.62 1.62/1(+54%)	(2) Cast A Spell 1.62/1, Stepped forward from debut when fifth in Kilbeggan bumper a couple of months ago and has left T. Hogan since. Worthy of interest if attracting market support starting out for a new yard. Not beaten far on second Irish start in April and ought to go close on British debut.
2	5 2nd (5) (5.5/1 -22%) Riccirella	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(5) Riccirella 5.5/1, Lost action when pulled up in bumper at Newcastle on debut but showed a lot more when third over C&D earlier in the month. Stable is going well and he's likely to give another good account. Pulled up on debut but third over C&D since; enters the argument.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.88/1 -15%) Gladys Eva Jane	1.88 1.88/1(-15%)	(3) Gladys Eva Jane 1.88/1, Left form of Rules debut well behind when second at Ffos Las a month ago. That's the best piece of form on show and there's more to come, so worth taking a chance on. Last month's Ffos Las second marks her out as a leading contender in this.
4	4 4th (4) (28/1 +15%) Happy Friend	28 28/1(+15%)	(4) Happy Friend 28/1, Elzaam mare. Sister to fair 1¼m winner on Flat Tebay. Dam maiden on Flat (probably stayed 8.3f). Yard not renowned for debut winners. Sister to a Flat winner; possibly best watched on debut.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/1 +21%) Upbeat Betty	11 11/1(+21%)	(8) Upbeat Betty 11/1, £5,000 3-y-o, Schiaparelli filly. Dam (c109/h99), 2¾m-3m hurdle/chase winner, sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (17f-21f winner) Rebel du Maquis. Likely to need further. Limited appeal on pedigree and stable has modest bumper record.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/1 +56%) Jenner Park	7 7/1(+56%)	(7) Jenner Park 7/1, £2,000 3-y-o, Walk In The Park filly. Dam, 1¼m winner who stayed 1½m, half-sister to top-class hurdler (stayed 3m) Nichols Canyon. Third sole start in point bumpers (May 13). Showed ability when third in a point bumper; this will require a deal more.

LTO Selection:

Gladys Eva Jane filled the runner-up spot at Ffos Las on her latest outing and that puts her well in contention against this level of opposition, but a chance can be taken on RICCIRELLA, who finished behind a potentially nice type in Aston Martini on her second bumper start and is likely to improve further. Any market support for Upbeat Betty should also be noted.

GLADYS EVA JANE showed improvement when runner-up at Ffos Las and another step forward should be enough for her to open her account at the likely expense of Riccirella. Amelia Marianne is worth monitoring in the betting on debut.

The ex-Irish CAST A SPELL can make a winning debut in Britain.

15:15 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (16/1 -33%) Kyber Crystal	16 16/1(-33%)	(6) Kyber Crystal 16/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 14/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, fared no better when ninth of 10 in handicap at this course (6.1f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Looks vulnerable once more. Out of form over 6f/7f this season but may benefit from today's drop back in trip.
2	8 2nd (8) (5.5/1 +54%) Coronation Cottage	5.5 5.5/1(+54%)	(8) Coronation Cottage 5.5/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, not in the same form as previous outing when fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Bounce back called for. Very inconsistent this season but has quickly dropped 5lb since C&D third three weeks ago.
3	4 3rd (4) (8/1 +50%) Atty's Edge	8 8/1(+50%)	(4) Atty's Edge 8/1, C&D winner. Failed to come on for recent run when fourth of 7 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Has been given a chance by the handicapper. Won four times in 2021 but drew a back last year and hasn't fired this season.
4	3 4th (3) (7/1 +42%) Glory Hallelujah	7 7/1(+42%)	(3) Glory Hallelujah 7/1, Not seen to best effect when twelfth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good, 12/1) 17 days ago, not ideally placed. On a career-low mark, but needs to step up on what he's shown so far this year. Seemed to take step back in right direction two runs ago but well held since.
5th	5 5th (5) (3/1 +33%) Rhubarb	3 3/1(+33%)	(5) Rhubarb 3/1, Three-time C&D winner. Has finished in the first 3 at this C&D on her last 4 starts, third of 7 in handicap (good to firm, 3/1) 10 days ago. Could be set to gain a first success of the year. Triple C&D winner who has made the frame four consecutive times over C&D in recent weeks.
6th	7 6th (7) (8/1 +0%) Fossos	8 8/1(+0%)	(7) Fossos 8/1, Three-time C&D winner. Unable to recover from slow start when sixth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 13/2) 10 days ago. Capable of going well if getting away on terms. Triple C&D winner in 2022; yet to hit top gear this season but still considered.
7th	9 7th (9) (66/1 -65%) Alya's Gold Award	66 66/1(-65%)	(9) Alya's Gold Award 66/1, Again lost all chance at the start when last of 6 in minor event at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm, 25/1) 13 days ago. Best watched. Effectively lost her chance when starting very slowly on both runs for new stable; risky.
8th	10 8th (10) (6.5/1 -117%) Zing Up	6.5 6.5/1(-117%)	(10) Zing Up 6.5/1, Stepped up seasonal/stable debut when second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 18/1) 7 days ago. Could still have more to offer for her current yard. Bettered low-key stable debut when close second at Windsor last week; good chance.
9th	1 9th (1) (5/1 -11%) Astrophysics	5 5/1(-11%)	(1) Astrophysics 5/1, C&D winner who scored twice at Wolverhampton in February. Retuned to form when second of 11 in handicap (7/1) back at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 7 days ago. Can make his presence felt off his last winning mark. Went very close on Tapeta a week ago and enters calculations on this turf return.
10th	2 10th (2) (12/1 +40%) Igotatext	12 12/1(+40%)	(2) Igotatext 12/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Ended last year out of form, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 12/1) in October. Has fallen further in the weights but has a bit to prove on return. Unplaced all four stable starts, most recently when down the field on Tapeta in October.

LTO Selection:

ZING UP didn't do herself any favours when making an awkward start at Windsor last time out, but she still put in a huge effort to finish second. The booking of Hollie Doyle suggests that connections mean business, and she can get off the mark at the main expense of course winner Rhubarb and Astrophysics, who was denied by the narrowest of margins at Wolverhampton last time out.

RHUBARB has been going through a good spell at this C&D of late, keeping on in a strongly-run race when third here 10 days ago, so she could be ready to return to winning ways this time around. It remains early days for Zing Up with her current trainer and the 3-y-o is feared most, ahead of Astrophysics who is back down to his last winning mark.

There may still be more to come from 3yo filly ZING UP, who is somewhat ungainly but ran very well in defeat a week ago.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (150/1 -50%) My Boy Grizzle	150 150/1(-50%)	(3) My Boy Grizzle 150/1, Has no more than hinted at ability and likely outsider here. Hasn't shown a great deal in two starts over hurdles this spring.
1	5 1st (5) (6.5/1 +41%) Young Merlin	6.5 6.5/1(+41%)	(5) Young Merlin 6.5/1, Fair Flat winner in France. Betting should help guide to expectations now hurdling for a new stable. British and French Flat winner; worth noting in the betting on stable/hurdle debut.
2	4 2nd (4) (0.83/1 +17%) The Galahad Kid	0.83 0.83/1(+17%)	(4) The Galahad Kid 0.83/1, Easily won both completed starts in Irish points and 2-2 in bumpers last summer. It's taken a while to get him back to the track for this hurdle debut but he's probably still the one to beat, particularly if the betting vibes are strong. Unbeaten in last four starts, two Irish points and two British bumpers; hurdle debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (2.5/1 -11%) Absolute Ruler	2.5 2.5/1(-11%)	(1) Absolute Ruler 2.5/1, Fair Flat winner. Off the mark over hurdles in 2m Huntingdon maiden hurdle in May. Creditable second in a Ffos Las novice since but it suggests he might be vulnerable under his penalty to something above average. Has taken well to hurdling with a Huntingdon win and seconds either side of that.
4	7 4th (7) (7/1 +0%) Definite	7 7/1(+0%)	(7) Definite 7/1, Fairly useful performer at best on Flat (stays 1¼m) and has shown a bit over hurdles, keeping on for third in maiden at Plumpton last month. Might be worth forgiving running out at the second at Huntingdon last time as he seemed to be put off by another rival wandering just before the flight. Some promise on first two starts but ducked out latest.
5th	6 5th (6) (20/1 -11%) Ar El Bee	20 20/1(-11%)	(6) Ar El Bee 20/1, Fair best on Flat for David Menuisier but lost his way towards the end of 2022. Remains to be seen if a switch to hurdling helps to spark an upturn in his fortunes. Disappointing Flat maiden; enough to prove on stable/hurdle debut after a break.
6th	2 6th (2) (100/1 -100%) Il Cima	100 100/1(-100%)	(2) Il Cima 100/1, 14/1, remote fifth of 7 in Market Rasen bumper 45 days ago. Tailed off in a bumper last month; hurdle debut.

LTO Selection:

ABSOLUTE RULER didn't lose much in defeat when giving weight away and not beaten far at Ffos Las earlier in the month, and this looks like an ideal opportunity to make it two wins from four in this sphere. The Galahad Kid comes here with an unbeaten record under Rules but this is tougher on his hurdles bow, while Definite is another to consider for his in-form connections.

THE GALAHAD KID looked useful when winning 2 bumpers last summer and is taken to make a successful start to his hurdle career, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Absolute Ruler is second choice ahead of Definite.

The proven hurdling form of ABSOLUTE RULER gives him the edge over The Galahad Kid.

1	2 1st (2) (0.91/1 -14%) Azahara Palace	0.91 0.91/1(-14%)	(2) Azahara Palace 0.91/1, Twice-raced filly. 5/4, third of 8 in maiden at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 16 days ago. May be capable of better. Seemed to find 7f a bit sharp when third at Catterick; moves back up in trip here.
2	1 2nd (1) (1/1 +20%) Owners Dream	1 1/1(+20%)	(1) Owners Dream 1/1, Promising sort. 11/2, third of 5 in maiden at Redcar (8f, good to soft) 35 days ago, not knocked about. Leading claims. Fair form when twice in the frame last month, albeit his better effort was on heavy ground.
3	3 3rd (3) (66/1 -32%) Certain Style	66 66/1(-32%)	(3) Certain Style 66/1, 24,000 gns 2-y-o, Adaay filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 1¼m winner Go Sakhee and winner up to 1¼m Bling King. Dam maiden (stayed 9.7f). 150/1, eighth of 11 in minor event at Kempton (7f) on debut 33 days ago, slowly away. Big step forward required. Well-beaten outsider on last months debut at Kempton (7f, AW).
4	4 4th (4) (50/1 +24%) Clandestinely	50 50/1(+24%)	(4) Clandestinely 50/1, Foaled January 7. 15,000 gns yearling, El Kabeir filly. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner) who stayed 10.5f. 25/1, ninth of 12 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f) on debut. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding. Much more needed. Always towards rear on debut in November (7f, AW); now with new stable.
5th	5 5th (5) (22/1 +27%) Lady Of Nepal	22 22/1(+27%)	(5) Lady Of Nepal 22/1, The Gurkha filly. Half-sister to useful 9f-1½m winner Military Mission and 1m winner Augeval. Dam 7f/1m winner. Half-sister to an Australian 1m4f Group 3 winner; stable not known for winning newcomers.

LTO Selection:

OWNERS DREAM sets the standard for others to aim at with a rating of 72 and he got up for third last time at Redcar, which was a solid effort. The son of Time Test may not need to improve much to shed his maiden tag at the fourth time of asking. The main danger is Azahara Palace, who hit the frame over 7f at Catterick last time and could take a step forward, while any market support for newcomer Lady Of Nepal would be interesting.

OWNERS DREAM might have been expected to turn up in a handicap for his fourth run, given he retains potential at an ordinary level, but this nonetheless looks a good opportunity for him to get off the mark. Twice-raced Azahara Palace may be capable of better and rates the clear main danger.

Preference is for OWNERS DREAM, who needs to prove he can handle fast ground but arguably has stronger form than Azahara Palace.

1	4 1st (4) (6/1 +0%) The Grey Falco	6 6/1(+0%)	(4) The Grey Falco 6/1, Dual hurdles winner for Alastair Ralph. Best run for current yard when second in a 2m chase here in March. Had yet to be asked for his effort when unseating 2 out in a Worcester handicap hurdle last time. Misfortune in two starts since reverting to hurdles; not out of this if all goes well.
2	2 2nd (2) (0.83/1 +34%) Clody Flyer	0.83 0.83/1(+34%)	(2) Clody Flyer 0.83/1, Point winner in December who has made a good start over hurdles for new connections, winning 2m maiden/novice events at Uttoxeter and Kelso last month. Opening handicap mark looks manageable and can complete the hat-trick. Two novice hurdle wins and the first has some merit; handicap debut with strong claims.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/1 +17%) Addosh	5 5/1(+17%)	(1) Addosh 5/1, C&D winner off a similar mark last summer. Bit better than the result back hurdling this spring and could go well if reacting positively to a first-time tongue tie. Won this last year but little since; tongue-strap on for first time.
4	5 4th (5) (4.5/1 -50%) No Recollection	4.5 4.5/1(-50%)	(5) No Recollection 4.5/1, Fairly useful Flat performer who won a Worcester maiden hurdle for Alan King last summer and struck at only the second time of asking for this yard in a handicap back there 11 days ago. Respected up 6 lb. Won in ready style at Worcester; 6lb rise fair; now 2-5 and might be open to progress.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (12/1 -50%) Gerard Mentor	12 12/1(-50%)	(3) Gerard Mentor 12/1, Scored twice last autumn but his 3 runs since have been underwhelming. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Hasn't found his best in two starts this season but excuses latest and could bounce back.

LTO Selection:

It is difficult to look past CLODY FLYER, who has been a comfortable winner on his last two starts and a mark of 109 could prove lenient on his handicap debut. With ground conditions in his favour as well, he should have too much for the likes of The Grey Falco and No Recollection, who bounced back to winning ways at Worcester recently.

This looks quite a good opportunity for CLODY FLYER to extend his winning run to 3 now moving into handicap company for the first time. Recent Worcester scorer No Recollection can give him most to do.

Handicap debutant CLODY FLYER looks to be on a mark that will enable him to carry on the good work.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (3.33/1 -21%) Hitched	3.33 3.33/1(-21%)	(3) Hitched 3.33/1, After 5 months off (gelded and in first-time hood), failed to improve making handicap/turf debut when fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm, 15/2) 23 days ago. It remains early days, though. Unable to land a telling blow on seasonal/handicap debut but might come on for the run.

Can go one better this time around. Well beaten on heavy ground two starts ago but runner-up in his other two handicaps.
3	7 3rd (7) (3/1 +40%) Athene's Kiss	3 3/1(+40%)	(7) Athene's Kiss 3/1, In first-time blinkers, ran one of better races when third of 9 in handicap at Brighton (1m, good to firm) 13 days ago. Can get involved again if the headgear continues to have a positive effect. Back on track when placed in first-time blinkers at Brighton this month; one to consider.
4	1 4th (1) (33/1 -65%) Winnaretta	33 33/1(-65%)	(1) Winnaretta 33/1, Hooded for 1st time, fared no better when fifth of 7 in handicap (25/1) at Windsor (8.1f, heavy) 42 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding with cheekpieces now the choice of headgear. Safely held in all three handicaps for Andrew Balding this year; recently sold for £5,000.
5th	5 5th (5) (14/1 -17%) Sundowner	14 14/1(-17%)	(5) Sundowner 14/1, With cheekpieces applied, never a threat when eighth of 11 on handicap debut at Lingfield (7f, AW) 20 days ago. Improvement required as she goes up in trip. About 7l behind Harry The Haggler when eighth on handicap debut (7f, AW).
6th	6 6th (6) (33/1 +18%) Wood Farm Wag	33 33/1(+18%)	(6) Wood Farm Wag 33/1, Run best excused when last of 11 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good, 50/1) 27 days ago, going off too hard. Still looks to be up against it, though. Beaten 22l and 34l in her first two handicaps; can't be recommended.
4	4 \|U\| (4) (3/1 +67%) Kohana Breeze	3 3/1(+67%)	(4) Kohana Breeze 3/1, Has finished no better than mid-field in handicaps this year, fifth of 9 at Brighton (1m, good to firm, 6/1) 13 days ago. Needs to find more. Eight-race maide; ran okay at Brighton this month but was behind stablemate Athene's Kiss.

LTO Selection:

Harry The Haggler filled the runner-up spot last time at Lingfield over 7f and a repeat of that display puts him well in contention. However, he will need to transfer that form to the turf, which could open the door for the Archie Watson-trained ATHENE'S KISS. The daughter of Gustav Klimt put in an improved effort in first-time blinkers last time when third at Brighton. Hitched is another to consider.

Away from testing conditions, HARRY THE HAGGLER wasted no time getting back on track when bumping into a handicap newcomer at Lingfield 20 days ago, so he can build on his latest effort to open his account. Athene's Kiss could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Hitched completing the shortlist.

This looks a good opportunity for HARRY THE HAGGLER (nap), who was second in two 7f AW handicaps this spring and might improve over 1m.

1	4 1st (4) (1.25/1 +55%) Broomfields Cave	1.25 1.25/1(+55%)	(4) Broomfields Cave 1.25/1, Point winner who shaped promisingly when third of 14 on handicap debut Taunton (19f) in February, finishing well from a poor position. Fair efforts in defeat since and he's unexposed as a stayer. Big player. Looks a stayer and could prove the point on his first start for three months.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 +38%) She's All In Gold	5 5/1(+38%)	(5) She's All In Gold 5/1, Novice hurdle winner at Stratford in 2021. Missed all of last year and failed to back up a promising Flat reappearance at Nottingham. Goes up in trip returned to hurdles. Two Flat outings since long absence and ran well in one; could be a factor if staying 3m.
3	2 3rd (2) (4.5/1 -50%) Sylvies Dance	4.5 4.5/1(-50%)	(2) Sylvies Dance 4.5/1, Winner in points who was well prepared to make a successful return to the track at Newton Abbot 19 days ago. That was a weak race but she showed the right attitude, which will hold her in good stead. Back from long absence with point second, then Newton Abbot hurdle win; handicap debut.
4	3 4th (3) (8/1 +27%) Ernesto	8 8/1(+27%)	(3) Ernesto 8/1, Capitalised on a drop in grade when resuming winning ways at Hereford (25.5f) in October but has struggled in his 6 starts since (pulled up on 3 occasions). Has stacks to prove at present. Badly out of form in recent starts but now on a good mark.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 -33%) Judge Earle	10 10/1(-33%)	(6) Judge Earle 10/1, Prolific over fences last summer, winning 5 times. Heavy defeats both starts upon return and now reverts to smaller obstacles. Thrashed in two chases this season; much lower mark over hurdles but a lot to prove.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (6.5/1 -86%) Kym Eyre	6.5 6.5/1(-86%)	(7) Kym Eyre 6.5/1, Didn't show much over hurdles but she's a former point winner and has improved over fences, relishing 27.5f when off the mark under Rules at Stratford in April. Slowly-run race against her at Fakenham and now back hurdling. Has been chasing and won over 3m3f+ two starts ago; chances if transferring that form.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (50/1 -317%) Blackhillsofdakota	50 50/1(-317%)	(1) Blackhillsofdakota 50/1, Heavy defeats both starts over fences for this yard in 2021 and off the track since. Given a chance by the assessor back hurdling but well-being taken on trust. Hurdle winner in Ireland nearly 4 years ago; back from 20 months off with it all to prove.

LTO Selection:

SYLVIES DANCE got off the mark when making her return under Rules at Newton Abbot earlier in the month and the nine-year-old could have more to offer now in handicap company for the first time. Kym Eyre has been running consistently well over fences in recent months and remains unexposed over the smaller obstacles, especially up in trip. The booking of Harry Cobden for Blackhillsofdakota is also interesting.

BROOMFIELDS CAVE is unexposed as a stayer and in a race in which most have a lot to prove he's very much the percentage call. Kym Eyre is offered as the main danger back hurdling.

A competitive event can go to the relatively unexposed BROOMFIELDS CAVE (nap). Kym Eyre is next best.

However, could fare better with cheekpieces now applied. Shade disappointing last time but placed behind two subsequent winners on handicap debut.

Return to this longer trip not enough to tempt. Had tough draw when well beaten over 5.7f on handicap debut; might fare better here.
5th	2 5th (2) (4.5/1 +40%) Moulin Booj	4.5 4.5/1(+40%)	(2) Moulin Booj 4.5/1, Showed bit more than previously when sixth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW, 125/1) 16 days ago. Further improvement required as he now goes handicapping. Took step forward when sixth in recent Lingfield novice; now makes handicap debut.
6th	4 6th (4) (4/1 +0%) Coral Reef	4 4/1(+0%)	(4) Coral Reef 4/1, After 5 months off, shaped as if back in form when second of 7 in handicap (6/1) at Leicester (7f, good to firm) 9 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Can be thereabouts with her recent run behind her. No match for clear winner when second nine days ago, but that was still a good effort.
7th	6 7th (6) (12/1 -20%) Estehwadh	12 12/1(-20%)	(6) Estehwadh 12/1, Went backwards from his previous 2 starts when last of 5 in handicap at Brighton (7f, soft, 7/1) 6 days ago. Below his last winning mark but others still look stronger. Placed at Brighton in May and has possibilities if recent defeat on soft ground is excused.

LTO Selection:

KIMNKATE is turned out quickly following her victory at Lingfield on Thursday and the 6lb penalty for that success is mostly negated by her rider's claim. In a contest lacking much depth on paper, she is taken to back that performance up. Coral Reef has filled the runner-up spot twice in her last three outings and is likely to be competitive, while the application of cheekpieces may yield improvement from Ubettabequick.

In first-time blinkers, KIMNKATE got off the mark with something to spare at Lingfield 4 days ago and she can score again with Connor Planas' 5-lb claim negating her penalty. The main danger could be Coral Reef who showed encouragement on her recent return, while Ubettabequick also merits consideration.

She was below form last time but UBETTABEQUICK is a big player if judged on her third behind two subsequent winners two starts ago.

Shaped as if going up in trip would help when fourth over 2m here this month.
2	8 2nd (8) (4/1 -20%) Highland Frolic	4 4/1(-20%)	(8) Highland Frolic 4/1, Fairly useful form on the Flat for the Gosdens and opened hurdles account in 2m Plumpton maiden in April. Has backed that up with a couple of creditable efforts in handicap company, including when second upped to 20.7f at Huntingdon last month, and he's a must for the shortlist. Two solid handicap efforts since a Plumpton maiden win; may need to go up a gear.

Bubble well and truly burst in a Musselburgh Class 2 last time but later found to be coughing and she needs considering back down in class over a new trip that may well be within her range. Hat-trick in the spring; well beaten latest; could easily bounce back after a break.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (12/1 -100%) Minelladestination	12 12/1(-100%)	(4) Minelladestination 12/1, Made a winning debut over hurdles in February last year and gained a first success since when landing a mares' handicap at Stratford (16.3f, soft) in April. However, she was in nothing like the same form at Perth last month and stamina to prove now upped in trip. Narrow Stratford winner in April but disappointing next time; has to prove stamina.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (12/1 -50%) Let Me Be	12 12/1(-50%)	(2) Let Me Be 12/1, Prolific winner on the Flat for Keith Dalgleish in 2021 and off the mark over hurdles for new yard in a Market Rasen maiden last spring. Close third on return at the same course (20.6f, good) in May and possibly found 23f too much of a test next time. Cheekpieces applied. Close third last month on return from a break; not so good since and cheekpieces now on.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (50/1 -79%) Ferrobin	50 50/1(-79%)	(5) Ferrobin 50/1, Landed an amateur jockeys' handicap at Ludlow in November 2021. Now 11 lb below that winning mark but with good reason (majority of his subsequent efforts have been poor) and it's probably best to look elsewhere. Has lost his way since a win in November 2021; too many doubts.

LTO Selection:

IVETWIGGEDIT was very progressive earlier in the year having landing a hat-trick, going up 24lb in the process, before disappointing when last seen at Musselburgh in March. She clearly relishes a sound surface and is worth a chance to bounce back from that display. Highland Frolic has been running well off this mark of late and merits respect, with Let Me Be, who drops in trip, and St Patricks Bridge appealing most of the remainder.

Though yet to trouble the judge in this sphere, bumper-winner BOBBY SOCKS took a step in the right direction over 15.8f here when returning from a break, leaving the impression that this stiffer test will be in his favour. Ivetwiggedit was well held bidding for the four-timer at Musselburgh but excuses have emerged for that heavy defeat and she will be a threat back down in class if coping with this step up in trip. The 4-y-o Highland Frolic and C&D winner Supreme Yeats are others to consider.

After an encouraging effort over 2m here this month, BOBBY SOCKS can gain a first hurdle success.

Not sure that this drop back in trip will work in her favour (and will need to be quicker off the blocks this time) but she needs considering off the same mark all the same.

LTO Selection:

There will be plenty who keep the faith in Penny Be, who had to settle for third when sent off favourite at Salisbury but is edging towards her first success. Even so, RECKON I'M HOT is preferred, despite being a lot more exposed, because he came with a head of finally breaking his duck at Bath last time. Forever Dreaming showed a few more signs of life at Salisbury, with Thegreatestshowman and Q Twenty Boy also respected.

This looks wide open and there are plenty of ifs and buts to ponder. Perhaps RECKON I'M HOT will open his account at the twentieth time of asking having produced one of his best efforts to date (and by far his best on turf) when just touched off at Bath last month. Peachey Carnehan and Forever Dreaming are nominated as the main dangers, largely owing to the fact that dropping back to 6f may not help Penny Be, while Sir Sedric and Thegreatestshowman both need to turn things around.

Penny Be remains of interest but this could be the day that RECKON I'M HOT (nap) gets off the mark after a stout effort at Bath.

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (20/1 -67%) Bedelia	20 20/1(-67%)	(7) Bedelia 20/1, Modest filly. Twelfth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good, 50/1) 21 days ago. Blinkers back on, tongue strap on 1st time. Regressed this year; has to find her best to be involved even off this low weight.
2	3 2nd (3) (2/1 +56%) Western Cape	2 2/1(+56%)	(3) Western Cape 2/1, Fair gelding. 15/2 and blinkered for 1st time, good fifth of 15 in handicap at Limerick (8f, good) 3 days ago. Respectable runs in handicaps, including over 1m at Limerick three days ago; be involved.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/1 -40%) Lady Pro	7 7/1(-40%)	(5) Lady Pro 7/1, 57,000 gns Gleneagles filly. Half-sister to useful 1m/8.6f winner Kestenna. Dam, 8.3f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 7f Electric Beat. Starts out at a low level and a market move for her would look significant. A 57,000gns yearling is by a decent sire and doesn't need to be smart to make an impact.
4	2 4th (2) (100/1 -150%) Td's Approach	100 100/1(-150%)	(2) Td's Approach 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 15 in maiden at Gowran (7f, good to soft) 54 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Was 19l behind at Gowran after hanging on the first turn; has to show much more today.
5th	1 5th (1) (3.33/1 -77%) Cyber Attack	3.33 3.33/1(-77%)	(1) Cyber Attack 3.33/1, Fair filly. Blinkered for 1st time, respectable sixth of 10 in maiden (14/1) at Listowel (8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Leading claims down in grade. Has run respectably a number of times in defeat in stronger company than this; player.
6th	6 6th (6) (1.88/1 +37%) Love Mocha	1.88 1.88/1(+37%)	(6) Love Mocha 1.88/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable third of 10 in claimer at Fairyhouse (10f, good, 10/3) 25 days ago. Blinkers back on. Unlikely to be far away. Respectable effort in a 1m2f Fairyhouse claimer last time; big player at the weights.
7th	4 7th (4) (16/1 -14%) Not Even Maybe	16 16/1(-14%)	(4) Not Even Maybe 16/1, Modest filly. 33/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighteenth of 22 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good) 4 days ago, slowly away. Maiden after 12 starts is rated only 48 and has plenty to find on these terms.

LTO Selection:

LOVE MOCHA gets the vote. The Jessica Harrington-trained filly showed promise on debut at Dundalk last autumn and has been placed a couple of times this season, including behind Saphristi in a 1m2f Fairyhouse claimer earlier this month. She had Western Cape over three lengths adrift on that occasion and that rival has put in a couple of solid efforts since in handicaps, including at Limerick on Friday evening. Cyber Attack showed plenty of promise on debut last year and again when going close at Dundalk, but hasn't progressed in three outings this term.

CYBER ATTACK has shown a fair level of form on most of her starts and looks to stand a good chance now dropping into a claimer. The main opposition may come from the Jessica Harrington yard, with Love Mocha an obvious threat after her third in similar company at Fairyhouse. Her debuting stablemate Lady Pro would also very much enter the reckoning if the betting vibes are strong.

Closely matched at the weights, CYBER ATTACK and Love Mocha can fight this out, with narrow preference for the first-named.

1	6 1st (6) (4.5/1 +18%) Steel Helmet	4.5 4.5/1(+18%)	(6) Steel Helmet 4.5/1, C&D winner in May. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 15/2) 21 days ago. Ought to be on the premises again. Clearcut C&D winner last month and met traffic when only fifth on latest outing.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 -9%) King Charles	6 6/1(-9%)	(7) King Charles 6/1, C&D winner. 5/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (2m) 82 days ago. Won this in 2022; below best on last two outings but returns from short break on good mark.
3	4 3rd (4) (7.5/1 -36%) Chief Craftsman	7.5 7.5/1(-36%)	(4) Chief Craftsman 7.5/1, One win from 29 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2020. Went close at Carlisle (11f) last month. Well held at Beverley (1½m, good to firm) since but claims if recapturing the Carlisle form. Has modest turf strike-rate but last month's Carlisle third was a good effort.
4	9 4th (9) (33/1 -65%) Adaayinourlife	33 33/1(-65%)	(9) Adaayinourlife 33/1, Out of sorts lately. 66/1, eleventh of 12 in classified event at Lingfield (1½m, AW) 20 days ago. Out of sorts in recent months and has stamina to prove.
5th	1 5th (1) (5/1 +17%) My Brother Jack	5 5/1(+17%)	(1) My Brother Jack 5/1, C&D winner. Fit from a couple of hurdle runs this spring and his stable is among the winners. Not discounted. C&D winner last summer but this spring's hurdling form was underwhelming.
6th	13 6th (13) (22/1 +56%) Harmonious	22 22/1(+56%)	(13) Harmonious 22/1, Remains a maiden after 34 Flat runs. Tenth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at this course (1½m) 21 days ago. Never competitive over 1m4f here this month and strike-rate now 0-34.
7th	8 7th (8) (12/1 -20%) Crossbeau	12 12/1(-20%)	(8) Crossbeau 12/1, 33/1, first run since leaving Les Eyre when good fifth of 9 in handicap at Beverley (1½m, good to firm) 26 days ago. Less exposed than a lot of these and the step back up in trip should suit him. 0-6 but ran okay on last month's seasonal debut and that run might have brought him on.
8th	11 8th (11) (18/1 +55%) Quiet Thunder	18 18/1(+55%)	(11) Quiet Thunder 18/1, Twelfth of 13 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 28/1) 21 days ago. Others are more obvious. Ran okay over 2m here last month but has suffered a heavy defeat since.
9th	10 9th (10) (3.5/1 +71%) The Resdev Way	3.5 3.5/1(+71%)	(10) The Resdev Way 3.5/1, Course winner. Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Ripon (1½m, good to firm, 8/1) 4 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Second off basement mark two runs ago but this regressive veteran is very inconsistent.
10th	2 10th (2) (10/1 -233%) Fighting Poet	10 10/1(-233%)	(2) Fighting Poet 10/1, Blinkered first, creditable second of 12 in classified event (9/1) at Lingfield (1½m, AW) 20 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Bumped into much-improved rival when second in 1m4f Lingfield classified three weeks ago.
11th	12 11th (12) (40/1 +0%) Clooney	40 40/1(+0%)	(12) Clooney 40/1, Poor maiden on balance. Last of 4 in classified event (28/1) at Brighton (1½m, good to firm) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive. 12-race maiden who was well beaten when last of four in recent Brighton classified.
12th	3 12th (3) (20/1 -25%) Peruvian Summer	20 20/1(-25%)	(3) Peruvian Summer 20/1, Eleventh of 13 in handicap at this course (16.5f, 11/1) 21 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to give him something extra. Respectable fifth over C&D in April but tailed off over 2m since; last win in March 2021.
13th	5 13th (5) (150/1 -275%) Hartside	150 150/1(-275%)	(5) Hartside 150/1, 14-y-o who hasn't been seen twice finishing well held over fences in summer 2021. Can only watch. 14yo; not seen since struggling in a chase in summer 2021.

LTO Selection:

CROSSBEAU wasn't disgraced on his return to action when fifth at Beverley last month and the extra couple of furlongs on this occasion appear likely to benefit the son of Dunaden. Steel Helmet scored over C&D on his penultimate start and the nine-year-old is capable of being in the mix, while King Charles and The Resdev Way are others worth noting.

FIGHTING POET reacted well to blinkers when second at Lingfield last time and might be capable of going one better now if the headgear works again. Chief Craftsman was never in it at Beverley last time but had shaped quite well at Carlisle prior to that and could be a threat if back to that form. The step back up in trip should suit the unexposed Crossbeau who completes the shortlist.

The suggestion is KING CHARLES, who won this race off a 3lb higher mark under Jessica Llewellyn a year ago.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	9 1st (9) (2.5/1 +67%) Port Noir	2.5 2.5/1(+67%)	(9) Port Noir 2.5/1, Course winner. Latest win at Lingfield in May. 22/1, creditable third of 11 in amateur riders' handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 4 days ago, keeping on under inexperienced jockey. Can make presence felt. Turf winner last month and placed on AW on Thursday but not very consistent.
2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 +10%) Connie's Rose	3 3/1(+10%)	(1) Connie's Rose 3/1, Four-time course winner, including twice over 5f this summer. Respected as a thriving filly but she did fade late on over this trip on her penultimate start. Career-best form when making all over 5f here ten days ago; up 6lb; 6f also suits.
3	6 3rd (6) (4.5/1 +18%) Savalas	4.5 4.5/1(+18%)	(6) Savalas 4.5/1, Snapped a losing run at Bath last month and went in again over C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, all out. Put up 4 lb for that so more will be needed if she's to come out on top again. Seemed to be idling closing stages when holding on for narrow C&D win this month; up 4lb.
4	7 4th (7) (6/1 -20%) Local Bay	6 6/1(-20%)	(7) Local Bay 6/1, Started 2023 with a pair of 7f Southwell wins. Went close to the hat-trick at Wolverhampton in February but off since a lesser run back at Southwell (1m) later that month. Drops in trip on turf return. Dual 7f Tapeta winner in February; looks interesting off his lower turf mark.
5th	12 5th (12) (25/1 -14%) Silver Diva	25 25/1(-14%)	(12) Silver Diva 25/1, Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at this course (5f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Something to find on form. Ran well over 5f here last month but remains a maiden after 25 runs.
6th	4 6th (4) (7.5/1 -88%) Bonkersinabundance	7.5 7.5/1(-88%)	(4) Bonkersinabundance 7.5/1, 17/2, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Brighton (6f, firm) 17 days ago, proving well suited by the drop to sprinting. Can make light of a 6 lb rise. Came good when dropped to 6f at Brighton this month and could have more to offer.
7th	2 7th (2) (10/1 +60%) Hollow Steel	10 10/1(+60%)	(2) Hollow Steel 10/1, 50/1, first run since leaving Alice Haynes when creditable third of 6 in C&D handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Needs to build on that. Very respectable third of six over C&D on recent seasonal debut; might come on for the run.
8th	11 8th (11) (50/1 -178%) Stamford Blue	50 50/1(-178%)	(11) Stamford Blue 50/1, Modest maiden. One of best runs when fourth of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (7f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Led until over 1f out on that occasion so this drop back to 6f looks worth a go. Seven-race maiden; ran okay over 7f last week and this drop back to 6f is worth a go.
9th	5 9th (5) (28/1 -155%) Berkshire Cruz	28 28/1(-155%)	(5) Berkshire Cruz 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on reappearance 21 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding. Cheekpieces on first time. Yard has a solid contender in Connie's Rose but Hollie Doyle is on this one. Check the betting. Bought for £8,000 after this month's respectable handicap debut for Andrew Balding.
10th	8 10th (8) (33/1 -65%) De Vegas Kid	33 33/1(-65%)	(8) De Vegas Kid 33/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Last of 6 in handicap (15/2) at Brighton (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago, missing break. Others more persuasive. Better known as a 7f/1m performer now; last of six when dropped back to 6f this month.

LTO Selection:

All of CONNIE'S ROSE's four victories have come at this venue and the daughter of Adaay, who scored over 5f on her latest start, makes plenty of appeal despite a 6lb rise from the handicapper. Savalas appears to be a solid threat following his recent C&D success and he commands respect along with Berkshire Cruz, who has cheekpieces on for the first time, and Bonkersinabundance.

BONKERSINABUNDANCE is totally unexposed as a sprinter and can follow up her recent Brighton success. Port Noir has been in good form back on turf in recent months and is second choice ahead of Connie's Rose, who has a good record here but is arguably better suited by 5f these days.

Roger Varian's BONKERSINABUNDANCE delivered a fairly comfortable success when dropped to 6f this month and may still have potential.

Dam of little account, closely related to smart German winner up to 11f Black Arrow. Mixed pedigree, so interesting to note market vibes on debut. 140,000gns yearling; some appeal on pedigree and yard had debut 2yo winner this month.

LTO Selection:

There is stamina on the dam's side of FAUNTLEROY's pedigree, but sire Mehmas imparts plenty of speed and the Crisfords' 140,000gns yearling can get off the mark at the first time of asking. Free Nation is a half-brother to former smart sprinter Alphabet and changed hands for 100,000gns, while Red Zone Hero and Kinnigoli Kid also went for six-figure sums. At 85,000gns, Savvy Kingdom wasn't exactly cheap and William Buick is an interesting booking.

A field of newcomers and hard to rule any out or in for that matter, and the market should provide valuable clues. but KINNIGOLI KID is highest rated on Timeform's provisional ratings for unraced horses given his pedigree and having been resold this year for 120,000 euros, and appeals as much as any. Free Nation and Red Zone Hero are a couple of others to note.

The one that appeals most on paper is FREE NATION, who is given the vote.

LTO Selection:

Simpson's Paradox is certainly bred in the purple as a brother to Alpha Centauri and Discoveries, but has yet to hit anything near the heights of his illustrious siblings. He's been given a break since a spring reappearance at Gowran and is now fitted with cheekpieces but may not cope with stablemate THE FIRST AND LAST, who took a step forward from his debut at the Curragh last summer when reappearing at Cork. He was just touched off by Mr Lincoln and may now have most to fear from Report, who has a similar profile and showed definite promise at the Curragh last month. Not a lot went right for Green Sky on debut at Gowran and hopefully she can benefit from that experience.

SIMPSON'S FAIR looked unsuited by the drop back to 7f when a beaten favourite on his Gowran reappearance in the spring and is given one more chance back over further in headgear. His stablemate The First And Last rates a threat after his Cork near miss, while Report showed promise on her Curragh reappearance and could have more to come for the Donnacha O'Brien yard.

Though there are some doubts about his stamina for this trip, THE FIRST AND LAST has the pace to lie close and can last home.

ZENO has performed with some promise on a couple of occasions, including when fourth here last month, and the use of cheekpieces now making his handicap bow may see him step forward on what he has achieved to date. All Dunn clearly wasn't at his best at Lingfield last time and is worth a chance to return to form. Zebadaay and Struck Gold complete the shortlist.

It's likely that ZENO will be seen in an altogether better light now pitched into a low-grade handicap off what looks a fair mark, and the hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. All Dunn is 3-8 on the all-weather and is likely to give a good account, while Glory Call and Alainn Tu both make each-way appeal.

This looks trappy but it might be worth siding with STRUCK GOLD. Alainn Tu is feared most ahead of the handicap newcomer Zeno.

Should have more to offer. Minor form on 2yo debut and reappearance; early days yet and handicaps more likely.
5th	11 5th (11) (20/1 +0%) Sea Of Elegance	20 20/1(+0%)	(11) Sea Of Elegance 20/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 11 in minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, good to firm, 50/1) 39 days ago. Minor promise over 7f (AW) and 1m2f on turf; needs to raise her game a good deal.

7th	6 7th (6) (33/1 +50%) Eight Fifteen	33 33/1(+50%)	(6) Eight Fifteen 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in minor event (100/1) at Kempton (7f). Off 8 months. Hooded for 1st time. Unlikely to feature. Low-key 7f novice form in two 2yo runs; belated return; one for another day.

Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 2-y-o 6f winner Most Beautiful and 1½m winner Purdey's Gift. Dam 8.6f-1¼m winner who stayed 1½m. Interesting newcomer if the market speaks in his favour. Handy pedigree but already had wind surgery and makes belated debut.
10th	7 10th (7) (10/1 +38%) Lakota Lass	10 10/1(+38%)	(7) Lakota Lass 10/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in maiden (40/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago. Looks a handicap type. Easy to back for both starts; glimmer of ability on return over C&D; handicap prospect.
11th	12 11th (12) (200/1 -400%) Visiting Hours	200 200/1(-400%)	(12) Visiting Hours 200/1, Once-raced maiden. 14/1, last of 5 in minor event at Catterick (7f, soft) on debut. Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Charlie & Mark Johnston. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Ran green and remote last of 5 on sole 2yo run for the Johnstons (7f); can only watch.

LTO Selection:

GARDEN ROUTE hasn't been seen since November, but he got to within a neck of success at Kempton and the third won a Newmarket handicap last week off a mark of 87. Wind and gelding operations during his time off should also stand the son of Galileo in good stead and he is a strong fancy to break through. If he needs the run, Peaceful Story is capable of capitalising following a solid Goodwood fourth. Give Aurora Charm and Paternoster Square some thought too.

GARDEN ROUTE took a step forward when runner-up at Kempton 7 months ago and his expert handler should have him well prepared for this return, so he's preferred to Peaceful Story, who offered encouragement at Goodwood last time out.

Peaceful Story has something to recommend her but this looks booked for GARDEN ROUTE who ran so well in both starts as a juvenile.

7th	5 7th (5) (16/1 +11%) Captain John Barry	16 16/1(+11%)	(5) Captain John Barry 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in maiden at Limerick (8f, good to soft, 100/1) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Hard to assess, beaten favourite on debut so probably not devoid of ability, cheekpieces.

LTO Selection:

MISS YVONNE gets the vote on what may prove a good evening for Jessica Harrington. The daughter of Churchill has dropped down to a competitive mark this year and has solid claims on her latest two starts. She was beaten just over a length at Roscommon and went even closer over a mile at Limerick on Friday. Harrington is also represented by Portreath, who was placed on his handicap debut at Listowel and may be suited by this step up in trip. Navy Beach appreciated the step up to 1m2f when staying on into third behind the well-backed Picture Of A City at Down Royal on Saturday.

NAVY BEACH took a step forward when runner-up at Down Royal on Saturday and there's likely more to come if he's not undone by the quick turnaround, so he's preferred to in-form pair Miss Yvonne and Portreath.

Jessica Harrington has the top two in the handicap and can collect with MISS YVONNE who has not been beaten far on her last two starts

2	1 2nd (1) (5.5/1 -22%) South Dakota Sioux	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(1) South Dakota Sioux 5.5/1, Career best when comfortably winning 10-runner handicap at Wetherby (5.5f) at the beginning of the month. Being kept busy and posted another sound effort when third at Leicester last week. Two wins this year and he went close over 5f at Leicester last Saturday; respected.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.25/1 +29%) Unlimited Data	1.25 1.25/1(+29%)	(3) Unlimited Data 1.25/1, Picked up where he left off when landing a C&D handicap here in May. 7/2, good second of 6 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to soft) 14 days ago and he's clearly in good nick. Two wins over C&D before a good second at Windsor in his hat-trick bid; key player.
4	2 4th (2) (10/1 -43%) Sugar Hill Babe	10 10/1(-43%)	(2) Sugar Hill Babe 10/1, Several placed effort to her name but spurned what looked a great opening when third of 5 in novice event at Southwell (5f). Off 118 days. Has solid record on Tapeta but she's now 0-10 and this looks competitive back from a break.
5th	5 5th (5) (4/1 -33%) Cuban Grey	4 4/1(-33%)	(5) Cuban Grey 4/1, Gained breakthrough in a C&D novice in March. 5/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 7 days ago. Expected to be bang there from the same mark. C&D winner who was a close second off this mark at Lingfield last Monday; in the mix.
6th	6 6th (6) (40/1 -233%) Pink Stripes	40 40/1(-233%)	(6) Pink Stripes 40/1, 18/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 32 days ago. Not easy to make a case for from out of the handicap again. Established trailblazer but he's still a maiden after 14 starts and looks vulnerable again.

LTO Selection:

UNLIMITED DATA finished second at Windsor a fortnight ago when attempting to make it a hat-trick of victories, having scored twice over C&D prior, and, now back on the all-weather, the son of Tasleet may prove a tough nut to crack. Cuban Grey went close on his most recent effort at Lingfield and is respected, while South Dakota Sioux and Sugar Hill Babe both have solid credentials.

CUBAN GREY has gained his sole win over this C&D and last week's excellent second at Lingfield suggests he's ready to double his tally from an unchanged mark. Unlimited Data and South Dakota Sioux are likely to give their running and are feared most.

This should be run at a good pace and it could set up for SOUTH DAKOTA SIOUX, who finished well to go close at Leicester last time.

4	8 4th (8) (3.5/1 +22%) Magical Merlin	3.5 3.5/1(+22%)	(8) Magical Merlin 3.5/1, C&D winner. Career best when winning 4-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm, 13/2) 14 days ago, forging clear. Worth a chance to follow up. C&D winner as 2yo; not an immediate success in handicaps but wide-margin winner latest.
5th	3 5th (3) (25/1 -25%) Spirited Guest	25 25/1(-25%)	(3) Spirited Guest 25/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in April. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Ascot (6f, soft, 14/1) 44 days ago. Up against it. Ended losing run on AW in April; useful at 6f and 7f on turf but left standing latest.
6th	7 6th (7) (40/1 -100%) Afterlife	40 40/1(-100%)	(7) Afterlife 40/1, Lightly-raced winner. First run since leaving John & Thady Gosden when tenth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 10/1) 12 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. Promising 7f win on final start for the Gosdens; hampered early on debut for new yard (6f).

LTO Selection:

LIVE IN THE MOMENT was one of those scuppered by the stalls fiasco at Epsom on Derby day, and he couldn't quite gain compensation at Catterick a week later, but he remains on a competitive rating and is worth sticking with. Lequinto bounced back to form when runner-up over C&D last week and is able to compete off the same mark. Magical Merlin did it well at Lingfield but, prior to that, he was only fourth behind Animate at Wolverhampton.

MAGICAL MERLIN powered away to score at Lingfield a fortnight ago and he's been successful here before, so he takes marginal preference over Live In The Moment, who arrives on the back of a solid showing at Catterick. Lequinto is also considered.

Magical Merlin is dangerous but LEQUINTO looks ready to win again following a return to form over C&D last week.

Mark looks reasonable for handicap debut in this sphere. Flat winner on soft in France, similar conditions for best hurdles form, ground a concern.

8th	1 8th (1) (22/1 +12%) Saraqael	22 22/1(+12%)	(1) Saraqael 22/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. Twelfth of 18 in novice hurdle (20/1) at Gowran (16f, heavy) 107 days ago. Off 107 days. Fairly useful on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Others preferred. Soft-ground maiden winner for his former trainer, ordinary form over hurdles for this yard.
9th	10 9th (10) (4/1 -14%) Quick Blessing	4 4/1(-14%)	(10) Quick Blessing 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, excellent second of 15 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 18/1) 18 days ago, conceding first run. Could go one better. Showed winning potential for the first time on seasonal debut, leading contender now.

LTO Selection:

Gavin Cromwell looks to have a strong hand here and the vote goes to bottom weight QUICK BLESSING. The sole three-year-old in the field gets a nice bit of weight from some of his rivals and looks capable of further improvement after a good run to chase home Parana Delta at Leopardstown earlier in the month. As a son of Australia going a bit further now should suit. Cromwell also has Pont Audemer who has been in good form over hurdles recently. The French-bred won over a mile in his native land and it will be interesting to see how he fares off a mark of 82 on his handicap debut on the level. Redstone Well looks another for the shortlist after a good effort to finish second at Gowran Park three weeks ago.

QUICK BLESSING finished strongly having conceded first run to the winner at Leopardstown 18 days ago and he's worth a chance to go one better with further progress on the cards. Stablemate Pont Audemar is a danger returning to the Flat and Redstone Well can't be dismissed on the back of a solid showing.

Gavin Cromwell's good run can continue with QUICK BLESSING who gave a promising display in his first handicap

LTO Selection:

There was a good word for KNICKS prior to his introduction at Ripon but after showing good speed, he faded into third as a short-priced favourite. With that run under his belt, though, he should be able to see his race out better and can improve past Mutasawi, who was a couple of lengths in front of him in second. Fifty Grand Slater has kept decent company so far, while Matloob is best judged on his debut fourth at Doncaster rather than his subsequent Leicester failure.

MUTASAWI produced a promising first effort when runner-up at Ripon 3 weeks ago despite not fully handling the undulations. and with that effort behind him, he will take some stopping. Knicks has 2 lengths to find with the selection but he was hampered so there's hope he will finish closer this time.

This can go to MUTASAWI, who sets a good standard on his debut second at Ripon 19 days ago and should be more streetwise this time.

1	1 1st (1) (1.1/1 -38%) Alpina Express	1.1 1.1/1(-38%)	(1) Alpina Express 1.1/1, Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 11/8, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, soft) 7 days ago, plenty in hand. Very much the one to beat under a penalty. Won both starts since handicapping, over 1m2f and 1m3f; good chance of hat-trick.
2	2 2nd (2) (2.25/1 +44%) Hurtle	2.25 2.25/1(+44%)	(2) Hurtle 2.25/1, 13/2, very good third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago, finishing with running left. Subsequently gelded and should have a part to play off the same mark. 1m winner on final 2yo start; solid 3rd over C&D on return; likely to need more.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +33%) Greased Lightning	4 4/1(+33%)	(5) Greased Lightning 4/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (12f, good to firm, 9/2) 39 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces on 1st time and won't be too far away if reproducing the form of his C&D second on penultimate start. Fair 2nd over C&D (soft) before tackling unexposed rivals latest; cheekpieces fitted.
4	3 4th (3) (20/1 -43%) Lexington Hero	20 20/1(-43%)	(3) Lexington Hero 20/1, Lightly-raced winner. Successful at Wolverhampton in February. Last of 5 in handicap at Newbury (12f, firm, 18/1) 11 days ago, having run of race. Faces a stiff task here. Won AW seller at 1m; faded into 5th over 1m4f on turf latest; up against it.
5th	4 5th (4) (18/1 -50%) Mirabello Bay	18 18/1(-50%)	(4) Mirabello Bay 18/1, Two wins from 6 runs this year, the latest at Wolverhampton in March. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Newbury (12f, firm, 28/1) 11 days ago, left poorly placed. Down 2 lb but likely to find one or two too good here all the same. Two AW wins at 1m2f/1m4f; has found turf handicaps harder work; slowly coming down weights.

LTO Selection:

ALPINA EXPRESS continues to go from strength to strength and a 6lb penalty for her most recent stylish win at Carlisle may not be enough to prevent Charlie Johnston's filly from landing the hat-trick. The slight rise in distance is another plus and she gets the vote ahead of Hurtle, who ran a highly creditable race on his return over C&D last month, and Greased Lightning.

Ready preference is for the filly ALPINA EXPRESS, who made it 2-2 in handicaps/on turf when scoring with plenty left in the tank at Carlisle last week. It's no surprise that connections are keen to get another run into her before being reassessed and she is hard to oppose under a 6 lb penalty. Hurtle's reappearance effort over this C&D was encouraging and he edges the vote ahead of Greased Lightning for forecast purposes.

Hurtle put up a good show on his reappearance but ALPINA EXPRESS is the one to beat and she can bring up the three-timer.

Info	Form	Odds
1	13 1st (13) (1.5/1 +33%) Lizzy's Filly	1.5 1.5/1(+33%)	(13) Lizzy's Filly 1.5/1, Fairly useful filly. Remains a maiden after 9 Flat runs. Respectable second of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (8f, 5/2) when last seen in December. Since rejoined former yard and she has to be high on the shortlist with Colin Keane booked. Placed in five of her six starts for Ciaran Murphy last year, champion jockey booked.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -11%) Expound	5 5/1(-11%)	(5) Expound 5/1, Fair gelding. Creditable third of 13 in handicap (16/1) at Gowran (9.4f, good) 21 days ago. Fair form at Dundalk last winter, best turf run so far when third in a Gowran handicap.
3	11 3rd (11) (2.75/1 -22%) Banned	2.75 2.75/1(-22%)	(11) Banned 2.75/1, Fair filly. Remains a maiden after 12 Flat runs. 5/2 and hooded for 1st time, creditable second of 9 in maiden at Roscommon (11.7f, good) 25 days ago. Another bold show likely. Four seconds to her name including at Roscommon on latest, should be in the mix again.
4	7 4th (7) (5/1 +33%) Granville Street	5 5/1(+33%)	(7) Granville Street 5/1, Lightly-raced gelding. 15/2, creditable second of 10 in maiden at Sligo (10.4f, good to soft), no match for winner. Off 13 months but will be a threat if ready to roll. Bumped into two superior maiden winners last season, every chance if fit and ready.
5th	3 5th (3) (11/1 +8%) Chicago Storm	11 11/1(+8%)	(3) Chicago Storm 11/1, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 7 Flat runs. Respectable tenth of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (10f, good, 14/1) 25 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Posed no threat on his handicap debut at Fairyhouse, some of his maiden form is appealing.
6th	9 6th (9) (80/1 -100%) Rock Basher	80 80/1(-100%)	(9) Rock Basher 80/1, Once-raced colt. 125/1 and tongue strap on, sixth of 10 in maiden at Listowel (8f, good to soft) on debut 23 days ago. Made a satisfactory debut at Listowel but needs to find above-average improvement.
7th	6 7th (6) (20/1 -25%) Game Nation	20 20/1(-25%)	(6) Game Nation 20/1, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 12 Flat runs. Tongue strap on for 1st time, good third of 10 in claimer (50/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 25 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Brian Barr. 56-rated gelding makes his Irish debut, would have better prospects in a handicap..
8th	2 8th (2) (28/1 +58%) Black Soul	28 28/1(+58%)	(2) Black Soul 28/1, Twice-raced gelding. First run since leaving John E. Kiely when eighth of 13 in maiden (200/1) at Tipperary (12.5f, good) 27 days ago. Down in trip. Has something to build on following reappearance, will need to get a handicap mark.
9th	8 9th (8) (33/1 +74%) Plunkett Street	33 33/1(+74%)	(8) Plunkett Street 33/1, 150/1, tenth of 11 in maiden at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) on Flat debut 41 days ago, very slowly away. Soundly beaten in two bumper outings, in rear over 1m at Killarney on Flat debut.
10th	10 10th (10) (150/1 -127%) So Easy Way	150 150/1(-127%)	(10) So Easy Way 150/1, Making GB/IRE Flat debut. 25/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft) 14 days ago, possibly amiss. Ex-French chase winner, one of her better efforts over hurdles was at this track in May.
11th	1 11th (1) (150/1 -20%) Angelus Griseo	150 150/1(-20%)	(1) Angelus Griseo 150/1, Twice-raced gelding. 66/1, first run since leaving Joseph O'Brien when ninth of 10 in maiden at Listowel (8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Soundly beaten on only start for Joseph O'Brien, in rear on debut for this stable.
12th	4 12th (4) (150/1 +0%) Cornmarket	150 150/1(+0%)	(4) Cornmarket 150/1, Twice-raced gelding on Flat. Tenth of 13 in juvenile hurdle (80/1) at Limerick (16f, heavy). Off 6 months. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Poor on last Flat run. Poor form on the Flat and no better over hurdles, tried with cheekpieces now.

LTO Selection:

Colin Keane is a positive booking for LIZZY'S FILLY and she may be able to gain a deserved win on her return. Cotai Glory filly rejoins Pat Martin having started her career with him and wouldn't be scoring out of turn having been placed six times from nine runs. To be fair she has bumped into some decent sorts and was last seen chasing home cosy winner Vadiana at Dundalk in December. Banned has a similar profile with plenty of placed form in the book. She doesn't look the most straightforward but could be a danger in a moderate enough contest. Granville Street was runner-up on his two outings for Ciaran Murphy last year, chasing home short-priced hotpots both times. He looks like another for the shortlist.

This represents a good opportunity for both BANNED and Lizzy's Filly to get off the mark. The latter will not go down without a fight if fully tuned-up following six months off but preference is for Banned, who put in a good shift equipped with a first-time hood (retained) when runner-up back from a break at Roscommon. She is unlikely to be inconvenienced by this drop back in trip and similar conditions are forecast here. Granville Street is third choice.

Race fitness could give BANNED an edge over Lizzy's Filly and she holds Celebating Ethel on Roscommon running

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	11 1st (11) (22/1 -38%) Tiffany	22 22/1(-38%)	(11) Tiffany 22/1, Twice-raced maiden. 66/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at this C&D 21 days ago, not knocked about. Given the yard she represents, better is likely to come when handicapping in due course. Showed some promise over C&D this month but middle distances are likely to be her bag.
2	1 2nd (1) (0.67/1 +70%) Mars Magic	0.67 0.67/1(+70%)	(1) Mars Magic 0.67/1, Promising sort. 4/1, won 8-runner minor event at this C&D on debut/sole start for the Charltons last September. More needed on return for new yard under a penalty but he's probably capable of better. Created pretty good impression when winning over C&D on debut in September.
3	10 3rd (10) (5/1 -25%) Nigiri	5 5/1(-25%)	(10) Nigiri 5/1, Promising type. Tenth of 11 in minor event at Chelmsford City (8f, 11/2) 32 days ago, left poorly placed. Showed ability on sole 2-y-o start in a Newmarket maiden and, in good hands, she remains of interest. Made promising 2yo debut and had excuse when down the field on last month's reappearance.
4	6 4th (6) (9/1 -20%) Isle Of Jura	9 9/1(-20%)	(6) Isle Of Jura 9/1, Twice-raced maiden. 12/1, first run since leaving Charlie Appleby when seventh of 9 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, soft) 6 days ago, slowly away. Will need to step up on that if he's to play a leading role here. Has excellent pedigree but made very underwhelming stable debut on Tuesday.
5th	3 5th (3) (8.5/1 +47%) Boxing Alex	8.5 8.5/1(+47%)	(3) Boxing Alex 8.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 18/1, sixth of 8 in minor event at Chester (7.6f, good) 30 days ago, slowly away. Likely to be more of a force when going down the handicap route. Well beaten on 2yo debut but showed promise when sixth at Chester last month; can improve.
6th	8 6th (8) (50/1 -100%) Wild Hoofer	50 50/1(-100%)	(8) Wild Hoofer 50/1, Once-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in minor event (80/1) at Kempton (7f) on debut 19 days ago. Probably more one for the longer-term. Unable to land a significant blow when 80-1 for recent debut at Kempton.
7th	5 7th (5) (66/1 +0%) Golden Moon	66 66/1(+0%)	(5) Golden Moon 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, tenth of 12 in minor event at Newbury (7f, good) 38 days ago. Another for whom handicaps will likely provide greater opportunities. Has a good pedigree but was a well-beaten outsider on both starts last month.
8th	2 8th (2) (100/1 -203%) Boujee Gold	100 100/1(-203%)	(2) Boujee Gold 100/1, Garswood filly. Half-sister to winner up to 9f Pulsating Dragon. Dam 1m/8.6f winner. Probably best watched on belated debut for a yard that seldom strikes with newcomers. Half-sister to a winner in Italy; probably best watched on this belated debut.
9th	4 9th (4) (11/1 +39%) Field Of View	11 11/1(+39%)	(4) Field Of View 11/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 10 in minor event at this course (6.1f, 16/1). Off 7 months and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Raced too freely and showed only minor promise on his two 6f starts in the autumn.
10th	7 10th (7) (28/1 -918%) Poseidon Prince	28 28/1(-918%)	(7) Poseidon Prince 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. Second of 9 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft, 11/2) on second of his 2 starts for Charlie Appleby at 2 yrs. Big player on return/debut for new yard, provided he takes to this surface. Good second for Godolphin in October but offloaded by that outfit for £4,500 in March.
11th	9 11th (9) (80/1 -21%) Jophiel	80 80/1(-21%)	(9) Jophiel 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 12 in minor event (66/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 16 days ago. Needs to take a big step forward. Always behind when 66-1 for both 7f starts this spring.

LTO Selection:

MARS MAGIC didn't taste competitive action until the September of his three-year-old season, but he immediately made up for lost time when scoring over C&D. He can't be all that straightforward because he has been off since, and has moved from the Charltons to James Ferguson in that time, but he looks quite a bright prospect. Poseidon Prince also has an absence to overcome, but was bought from Godolphin after a second at Yarmouth. There were excuses for Nigiri's Chelmsford no-show and she can't be written off just yet.

Godolphin cast-off POSEIDON PRINCE stepped up on his debut effort when chasing home a decent type in Tafreej when last seen at Yarmouth in October. If fully tuned-up for this debut for new connections, he could be the answer. There were excuses for Nigiri's low-key reappearance effort (reportedly bled) and she remains of interest in view of what was a fairly promising introduction in a backend Newmarket maiden. Mars Magic, a winner over C&D on debut last year, is best of the rest.

Nicely in command in the closing stages of a C&D novice in September, MARS MAGIC is taken to maintain his 100% record.

1	5 1st (5) (0.83/1 +85%) Morcar	0.83 0.83/1(+85%)	(5) Morcar 0.83/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, fourth of 12 in minor event at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Open to improvement and makes the most appeal. Improved 4th over 1m on latest qualifying run; can improve now handicapping at 1m2f.
2	6 2nd (6) (3.33/1 +45%) Emperor Zen	3.33 3.33/1(+45%)	(6) Emperor Zen 3.33/1, Winner at Kempton in December. 11/8, last of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW), needing stronger gallop. Off 128 days. Solid claims if he's tuned up after a break. In good form in AW handicaps at 1m-1m2f over the winter; needs more in first turf handicap.
3	4 3rd (4) (2.25/1 +68%) Mindset	2.25 2.25/1(+68%)	(4) Mindset 2.25/1, Lightly-raced winner. 14/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Claims if he can get back to the pick of his 2yo efforts. Won 7f novice as 2yo but weak finisher in 1m2f and 1m handicaps this year.

LTO Selection:

The drop in trip can work the oracle for MONTEVIDEO, having shown plenty of pace over further when not beaten far at Haydock last time out. Joe Fanning will look to dictate from the front and he may have enough to see off the likes of handicap debutant Morcar, while Tribute has strong claims on his penultimate effort at Southwell.

MORCAR has set a solid platform and promises to be well suited by the longer trip, so he gets the nod over Montevideo, who ran with credit in a novice at Haydock 12 days ago and could get her own way in front. Tribute is also considered.

An open race with MORCAR, who should appreciate the step up in trip on his handicap debut, narrowly preferred.

First run for yard after leaving Jessica Dupont-Fahn. Wears tongue strap. Two wins during a 24-race career in France, entitled to need this on debut for Galway yard.
3	4 3rd (4) (1.88/1 +46%) Sign From Above	1.88 1.88/1(+46%)	(4) Sign From Above 1.88/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. 11/4, creditable third of 16 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft) 34 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Cheekpieces on first time and this mark should be within range. Has run creditably over hurdles since last seen on the Flat, trainer also runs The Truant.
4	5 4th (5) (3.33/1 +0%) Nostra Casa	3.33 3.33/1(+0%)	(5) Nostra Casa 3.33/1, First run since leaving Brian Francis Cawley when 16/1 and tongue strap/cheekpieces on for first time, won 12-runner handicap at Sligo (13.1f, soft) 57 days ago, well on top finish. Made light of a two-year absence to score in decisive fashion at Sligo in April, up 10lb.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 -57%) The Truant	11 11/1(-57%)	(6) The Truant 11/1, Bit below form sixth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Naas (15.7f, soft, 12/1) 148 days ago. Off 148 days. Back down in trip. Fair on the Flat. Fair hurdles form last winter, worth bearing in mind that he won on seasonal debut in 2022.
6th	12 6th (12) (11/1 -57%) Evening Verse	11 11/1(-57%)	(12) Evening Verse 11/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 11/1, respectable fourth of 15 in handicap at Cork (10.1f, good) 40 days ago. Up in trip. Has to be taken seriously. Both wins have come on AW and has a 0-11 record on turf, fair fourth at Limerick on latest.
7th	11 7th (11) (5.5/1 +31%) Red Vermillion	5.5 5.5/1(+31%)	(11) Red Vermillion 5.5/1, Latest win at Navan in May. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (15f, good, 17/2) 11 days ago. Can give a good account. Has already produced a foal but that has not stopped her from recapturing form this season.
8th	9 8th (9) (7.5/1 +6%) Five Zeros	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(9) Five Zeros 7.5/1, 15/2, eleventh of 17 in handicap at Navan (10f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Back up in trip. Hood back on. Dropped to a handy mark if she can bounce back. No sign that she can recapture the form that delivered three wins last season.
9th	13 9th (13) (9/1 +0%) Lofoten	9 9/1(+0%)	(13) Lofoten 9/1, 14/1, creditable fifth of 15 in handicap at Listowel (8f, good) 22 days ago, faring best of those held up. Significantly up in trip. Yet to reach the first four for this stable, not a bad effort when fifth at Listowel.
10th	2 10th (2) (33/1 +0%) Big Kitten	33 33/1(+0%)	(2) Big Kitten 33/1, 40/1, fourteenth of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (10f, good) 25 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Back up in trip. Booking of Keane a plus. Both wins were on AW in Britain in 2018, this year's efforts far from convincing.
11th	10 11th (10) (40/1 -43%) Mutadaawel	40 40/1(-43%)	(10) Mutadaawel 40/1, 50/1, ninth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (17.6f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Down in trip and should strip fitter with that under his belt. Should be better for a recent hurdles run, better on AW than turf but good going will suit.
12th	14 12th (14) (28/1 +30%) Vintage Gold	28 28/1(+30%)	(14) Vintage Gold 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle (22/1) at Tramore (16.8f, good) 23 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Modest on the Flat. Fit from hurdling, ended last season with a good run but that was on soft ground.

LTO Selection:

SIGN FROM ABOVE looks capable of winning off this kind of mark on the Flat after some good runs over timber. The Sea The Stars gelding gained his sole win over a similar trip to this at Down Royal last September on nice ground before meeting trouble in running when sixth at the Curragh subsequently in more testing conditions. He remains on the same mark now for his return to Flat. Connections will be hoping the rain arrives for Nostra Casa. He won well on his return from a long absence at Sligo in late April and tries to defy a 10lb hike now. Red Vermillion won at Navan on her penultimate start over a similar trip and didn't appear to get home over further at Leopardstown last time. She's another that has to be considered.

SIGN FROM ABOVE has developed into a pretty useful hurdles performer since last racing on the level and this mark looks very workable. Nostra Casa and Red Vermillion are a couple of potential threats.

A first turf win beckons for dual Dundalk scorer EVENING VERSE following a creditable fourth at Gowran last month

GAME SET is a full-brother to a useful handicapper in Razeyna and he could be even better judging by his successful Doncaster debut. Owen Burrows' colt showed a pleasing attitude to fend off a subsequent scorer and he can take the next step up the ladder. Verona Star also defends an unblemished record, although his winning introduction came at Newcastle back in October 2021 and he has to concede weight all round. Sparkling Spirit is interesting on her first appearance for Adrian Keatley.

GAME SET had a bit up his sleeve when seeing off a next-time-out winner on debut at Doncaster 3 weeks ago and he looks capable of defying a penalty. Verona Star has a 20-month absence to overcome but is in excellent hands, with Sparkling Spirit one to monitor in the betting for her new yard.

Owen Burrows' GAME SET showed a good attitude when scoring at Doncaster on his recent debut and sets a useful standard under a penalty.

20:10 Windsor Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (5/1 +50%) Lahina Bay	5 5/1(+50%)	(8) Lahina Bay 5/1, 9/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Salisbury (6f, firm) 13 days ago. Has made a positive start to the current campaign and should go well again. Rallied well to prevail in three-way finish at 6f latest; return to 5f raises a query.
2	10 2nd (10) (14/1 +30%) Cloudy Breeze	14 14/1(+30%)	(10) Cloudy Breeze 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in handicap (80/1) at Kempton (7f) 70 days ago. Back down in trip. Others preferred. Raced too freely when a down-the-field outsider in first two handicaps; drops back in trip.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 +33%) Mucky Mulconry	4 4/1(+33%)	(7) Mucky Mulconry 4/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in May. Good second of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm, 9/4) 11 days ago. Holding form well recently and likely to be on the premises again. Followed last month's AW win with clear second at Yarmouth 11 days ago; considered.
4	6 4th (6) (5/1 -43%) Liosa	5 5/1(-43%)	(6) Liosa 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Craig Lidster when excellent fourth of 8 in handicap (10/1) at this course (6f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Claims if he can build on that. Unexposed after only four runs and did well to finish fourth over 6f on handicap debut.
5th	3 5th (3) (4.5/1 +25%) Imperiousity	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(3) Imperiousity 4.5/1, Winner at Lingfield in May. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 20 days ago. Booking of Buick a plus. Likely to go well. In good form on AW in recent weeks and this return to turf won't be a problem.
6th	2 6th (2) (9/1 -64%) Victors Dream	9 9/1(-64%)	(2) Victors Dream 9/1, Evens, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 20 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Should put up another solid showing. Placed in all three AW handicaps; big player if form transfers to turf.
7th	9 7th (9) (28/1 -180%) Urban Jungle	28 28/1(-180%)	(9) Urban Jungle 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 16/1) 56 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Tom Ward. Hood on 1st time. Not easy to make a case for. Unplaced all five starts for Tom Ward; dropped in trip and hooded for stable debut.
8th	4 8th (4) (18/1 -13%) Missing You	18 18/1(-13%)	(4) Missing You 18/1, Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 9/2) 20 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Not discounted. Twice in the frame on Polytrack this month; in the mix if this switch to fast turf suits.
9th	1 9th (1) (11/1 +0%) Desert Illusion	11 11/1(+0%)	(1) Desert Illusion 11/1, Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good, 13/2) 21 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Worth considering. Placed twice in cheekpieces this spring; likely contender again in first-time visor.
10th	5 10th (5) (7/1 -40%) Carry On Aitch	7 7/1(-40%)	(5) Carry On Aitch 7/1, 5/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago, well on top finish. Carries penalty. Makes plenty of appeal. Opened account with C&D win a week ago; respected under 6lb penalty.

LTO Selection:

This looks like a wide-open contest, where a chance can be taken on last-time-out victor CARRY ON AITCH, who went in over C&D last week and considering the manner of his victory, he is fancied to carry his 6lb penalty to strike once more. Mucky Mulconry has been a consistent performer since joining Michael Wigham and has to be respected with Tom Marquand booked, while Imperiousity is far from ruled out on the back of his runner-up effort at Lingfield last time.

CARRY ON AITCH was well on top at the finish when winning here a week ago and she's worth a chance to defy the penalty for all that this is a competitive race for the grade. Imperiousity and Mucky Mulconry are obvious dangers.

This is very competitive for the grade. LIOSA did well to finish fourth here on his seasonal/handicap debut and might be the answer.

20:20 Ballinrobe Handicap 13f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +25%) Vera Verto	3 3/1(+25%)	(4) Vera Verto 3/1, Creditable second of 12 in handicap (13/2) at Fairyhouse (13.7f, good) 10 days ago. Shortlist material. No match for a well-treated winner last time but unlikely to encounter one like that today.
2	8 2nd (8) (5/1 +23%) Pachmena	5 5/1(+23%)	(8) Pachmena 5/1, One win from 32 Flat runs. 9/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, fourth of 7 in handicap at Sligo (10.6f, soft) 57 days ago, never nearer. Up in trip. Yard saddles a stronger candidate in Vera Verto. Solid effort on return at Sligo in April and this ground versatile sort can be involved.
3	6 3rd (6) (3.33/1 -67%) Marvelosa	3.33 3.33/1(-67%)	(6) Marvelosa 3.33/1, Didn't need to be at best when winning 9-runner maiden at Sligo (10.4f, good to soft, 5/6) 41 days ago, cosily. Back up in trip and she's likely to be in the mix. Won a Sligo maiden over 1m2.5f last time; seems to stay this trip well enough.
4	3 4th (3) (6/1 +33%) Molly's Gamble	6 6/1(+33%)	(3) Molly's Gamble 6/1, 13/2, eighth of 9 in handicap at Gowran (13.7f, heavy) 69 days ago. Booking of Keane a plus and she's not without each-way hope. Long way below her best on return at Gowran in April and needs to put that behind her.
5th	7 5th (7) (12/1 -33%) Vischio	12 12/1(-33%)	(7) Vischio 12/1, Good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.2f, good, 12/1) 27 days ago, finishing well. Fairly useful in this sphere and she's not discounted. Was runner-up at this track over hurdles last time and shouldn't be far away.
6th	9 6th (9) (25/1 -194%) Gonetomillgrove	25 25/1(-194%)	(9) Gonetomillgrove 25/1, 150/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, below form ninth of 19 in novice hurdle at Tipperary (15.8f, good to soft) 53 days ago. Fair on the Flat, albeit latest effort in this sphere wasn't one of her better ones. Won 1m4f handicap on soft ground last year for former yard; hasn't matched that form since.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/1 +0%) Female Soldier	7 7/1(+0%)	(1) Female Soldier 7/1, Creditable seventh of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Cork (12f, soft) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and will have a chance if she puts her best foot forward. Decent effort in the Cork Derby last time; chance if cheekpieces help restore to her best.
8th	2 8th (2) (5.5/1 +61%) Disco Boots	5.5 5.5/1(+61%)	(2) Disco Boots 5.5/1, 6/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Sligo (10.6f, soft) 57 days ago. Up in trip and looks vulnerable. Hasn't been near best form in three starts since last win and is still 8lb above that mark.

LTO Selection:

MARVELOSA may be able to follow up after gaining a deserved success at Sligo last time. She had been knocking on the door for a while before her win last month and showed a good attitude to overcome some traffic problems to get the job done then. She has eased a couple of pounds in the recent handicapper's adjustment and looks on an attractive mark. Vera Verto ran a solid race when chasing home the well handicapped Night Sparkle at Fairyhouse last time and could be a danger now. Her trainer Gavin Cromwell also runs Pachmena and she also has a chance after a decent run to finish fourth on her return at Sligo in late April.

VERA VERTO put in a solid front-running shift when chasing home an in-form rival over 13.7f at Fairyhouse recently, in turn pulling clear of the rest. This slight drop back in trip looks a good move and she is appealing off the same mark. Next on the list is Marvelosa, who got off the mark in a Sligo maiden last time and was runner-up in a handicap off 2 lb higher at the same course on her penultimate start. For those seeking an each-option, Vischio is worthy of consideration.

Having bumped into a well-treated rival on return to the Flat at Fairyhouse last time, VERA VERTO(nap) can go one better today.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (16/1 -220%) Magic Gem	16 16/1(-220%)	(5) Magic Gem 16/1, Runner-up 3 times prior to deservedly getting off the mark in 7f classified event at Southwell in March 2022 (final start for David Brown). Not seen since but player if new stable has him ready to roll. Won at Southwell last March and has claims if he can pick up where he left off; new yard.
2	9 2nd (9) (4/1 +43%) Spartakos	4 4/1(+43%)	(9) Spartakos 4/1, 10/1, good third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Not the easiest to predict. All three wins have been on turf but he gave it a good shot over C&D last time; in the mix.
3	11 3rd (11) (9/1 +55%) Twistaline	9 9/1(+55%)	(11) Twistaline 9/1, Course winner in March. Out of sorts since but her stable is back in good form. No surprise were she to revive. Won a classified event here (9.4f) in March but she's struggled in all three runs since.
4	10 4th (10) (9/1 +44%) Tea Garden	9 9/1(+44%)	(10) Tea Garden 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 9/2) 47 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Frequent slow starter who has not threatened in last two runs; needs more back up in trip.
5th	4 5th (4) (5.5/1 -10%) Lockdown Lass	5.5 5.5/1(-10%)	(4) Lockdown Lass 5.5/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. 11/8, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Chepstow (7f, good to firm) 41 days ago. Not discounted. Placed in both her runs this season and has each-way claims again back on AW.
6th	3 6th (3) (25/1 -56%) Dodgy Bob	25 25/1(-56%)	(3) Dodgy Bob 25/1, Dual C&D winner this year. Eighth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 21 days ago, left poorly placed. Bounce back needed. Two wins at big prices over C&D this year but he needs another bolt from the blue.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 +50%) Sirius White	10 10/1(+50%)	(8) Sirius White 10/1, Won at Chelmsford in January. Also went close over C&D in April. Does need to bounce back from a very poor run at Lingfield last time, though. Has claims on his best form this year but he has a hit-and-miss profile; risks attached.
8th	1 8th (1) (9/1 -13%) Cappananty Con	9 9/1(-13%)	(1) Cappananty Con 9/1, Five-time course winner, the latest in April. 17/2, eighth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 32 days ago but can do better back here. Ended long losing run over C&D in April but he was disappointing last time; risks attached.
9th	6 9th (6) (3.33/1 -33%) Martineo	3.33 3.33/1(-33%)	(6) Martineo 3.33/1, Four-time course winner. Latest win at Newcastle under Connor Beasley in May. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f, 6/1) 32 days ago. Major player. Four-time course winner who has been in good form on AW since March; respected.
10th	2 10th (2) (12/1 +52%) Christines Angel	12 12/1(+52%)	(2) Christines Angel 12/1, Below form sixth of 12 in handicap (33/1) at this course (9.5f), left poorly placed. Off 133 days. Back down in trip. Uphill task. 12-race maiden who has been well held in last three runs; others more convincing.
11th	7 11th (7) (18/1 -13%) Poet	18 18/1(-13%)	(7) Poet 18/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Struggling for form this year but pulling too hard on his return from a break provides an excuse for his latest run here. Sole win was in December 2021 and he's been well held in last six runs; opposable.

LTO Selection:

LOCKDOWN LASS ran well off a mark of 47 last time at Chepstow, despite failing to justify favouritism, and that was a very solid display in the context of this race. A live danger comes in the shape of last-time-out victor Magic Gem, who has an absence to overcome but was in good form at the start of last year. Spartakos tries first-time cheekpieces, which makes him of interest too.

MARTINEO has a much more solid recent record than most of these and gets the nod under Connor Beasley, who was on board for last month's Newcastle win. Lockdown Lass is a threat after 2 creditable runs on turf this spring, while it'll be interesting to see how much strength there is in the betting behind the returning Magic Gem, who was in good form at this level when last seen.

Top of the list is MARTINEO, who has been in good form on AW since March including a close third at Chelmsford last time.

2	5 2nd (5) (4/1 +0%) Hooflepuff	4 4/1(+0%)	(5) Hooflepuff 4/1, Three-time C&D winner. 15/8, didn't need to improve for latest of them in April. well on top at the finish. Given a short break and he's one to consider. All nine wins have come here including over C&D last time; big player again up 2lb.
3	1 3rd (1) (16/1 +27%) Nikki's Girl	16 16/1(+27%)	(1) Nikki's Girl 16/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 12/1) 18 days ago. Up in trip, which looks a good move given her tendency to miss the break. Headgear off. Three wins last year but she's lost her way and is untried at this trip; plenty to prove.
4	8 4th (8) (7/1 +0%) Barney's Angel	7 7/1(+0%)	(8) Barney's Angel 7/1, Good second of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago. Hood on first time and he can remain competitive. 0-6 but was a good second at Southwell last time and he's respected; hood added.
5th	9 5th (9) (5/1 +23%) Kenilworth King	5 5/1(+23%)	(9) Kenilworth King 5/1, Course winner. Good second of 10 in handicap at this course (9.5f, 16/1) 7 days ago. Of serious interest from the same mark. Turned things around with a bold bid over 9.4f here last Monday; respected off same mark.
6th	11 6th (11) (25/1 -108%) Los Camachos	25 25/1(-108%)	(11) Los Camachos 25/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 7/1) 45 days ago. Up in trip. On lengthy losing run and he needs to raise his game back up in trip.
7th	7 7th (7) (14/1 +30%) Pysanka	14 14/1(+30%)	(7) Pysanka 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Visored for first time, tenth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm, 33/1) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces replace a visor. Has not really progressed so far and he needs to raise his game back on AW.
8th	3 8th (3) (7.5/1 +70%) Kaaranah	7.5 7.5/1(+70%)	(3) Kaaranah 7.5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Eighth of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago. Lots to prove at present. Sole win was almost two years ago and has been well held in all four runs this season.
9th	2 9th (2) (2.25/1 +0%) Snooze Lane	2.25 2.25/1(+0%)	(2) Snooze Lane 2.25/1, Picked up where he left off with a victory here in March. 7/2, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good to soft) 54 days ago, though he was denied a clear run. Expected to be bang there returned to the AW. Dual course winner who went close here on penultimate run; respected back on Tapeta.
10th	6 10th (6) (22/1 -120%) Bond Boy	22 22/1(-120%)	(6) Bond Boy 22/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 13 runs this year. Last of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 25/1) 13 days ago. Becoming well treated and yard in excellent form. Triple AW winner who is on a reduced mark but he needs a major revival.

LTO Selection:

Hooflepuff was victorious in April at Wolverhampton when accounting for his rivals by a length in this grade, and he should go well again off only 2lb higher. However, he could be playing second fiddle to KENILWORTH KING, who filled the runner-up spot last time and was only touched off by half a length. The four-year-old competes off the same mark which gives him every chance of going one better. Barney's Angel could improve for a first-time hood and needs to be considered as well.

KENILWORTH KING left his opening effort for this yard well behind when second here last week, and from the same mark, he holds sound claims. Snooze Lane has gained both wins at this venue and is a big danger back on the AW, with Nikki's Girl another to consider upped in trip.

7yo HOOFLEPUFF (nap) recorded his ninth course win when scoring over C&D in April and he gets the vote ahead of Snooze Lane.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
