Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +25%) King's Call	3 3/1(+25%)	(4) King's Call 3/1, Foaled March 30. Dandy Man colt. Brother to useful 5f winner Thunder Moor and half-brother to winner up to 1m Jungle Mate. Bred to be sharp and this Gimcrack entry merits consideration on debut. Dandy Man colt; related to two 5f winners out of 6f winner; well entered; interesting.
2	9 2nd (9) (16/1 -33%) We Dare To Dream	16 16/1(-33%)	(9) We Dare To Dream 16/1, Foaled February 24. €75,000 foal, €45,000 yearling, Dark Angel colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 6f-1m winner Texas Rock and 6f/7f winner Evident. Dam unraced. 45,000euros yearling by Dark Angel; quite an interesting newcomer.
3	1 3rd (1) (28/1 -1929%) Fred On Fire	28 28/1(-1929%)	(1) Fred On Fire 28/1, Mehmas colt who made a winning debut in game fashion when taking 12-runner Newcastle novice (6f) 18 days ago, leading inside final 1f and keeping on well. Sound claims under a penalty with prospect of more to come. 35,000gns yearling; won AW novice on debut (6f); dam won on turf; chance with a penalty.
4	6 4th (6) (40/1 -300%) Peninsula Power	40 40/1(-300%)	(6) Peninsula Power 40/1, Foaled April 12. 100,000 gns yearling, Profitable colt. Shaped with some encouragement when fourth of 9 in minor event at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 9/1) on debut 23 days ago. Type to improve. 100,000gns yearling; fair fourth on debut at Redcar and should come on for that run.
5th	3 5th (3) (14/1 -180%) Arbitration	14 14/1(-180%)	(3) Arbitration 14/1, Foaled March 26. Beckford colt. Dam unraced half-sister to useful winner up to 1½m Red Stars. Represents yard with a fine record with their juveniles and he's one to note if the market speaks in his favour. By Beckford and of an unraced mare who is related to 1m4f Listed winner; market good guide.
6th	8 6th (8) (100/1 -52%) Sanbona	100 100/1(-52%)	(8) Sanbona 100/1, 18/1, hopelessly green when twelfth of 14 in minor event at York (6f, good) on debut in May. This should reveal more but passed over in any case. 40,000gns yearling; well beaten 18-1 chance on York debut; gelded since; may do better.
7th	7 7th (7) (100/1 -1718%) Riyadh	100 100/1(-1718%)	(7) Riyadh 100/1, Foaled March 5. 48,000 gns 2-y-o, War of Will colt. Half-brother to 2 minor winners in US. Dam US 2-y-o 7f winner.

Visored for 1st time, last of 4 in maiden (11/2) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 12 days ago, early reminders and always behind. Has finished last on both starts so far (visored latest); needs to show marked improvement.
9th	5 9th (5) (100/1 -733%) Mystical Sky	100 100/1(-733%)	(5) Mystical Sky 100/1, Foaled January 29. Oasis Dream colt. Dam, 2-y-o 1m winner. Last of 6 in minor event (12/1) at Nottingham (6.1f, good) on debut 32 days ago, headed over 2f out and weakening. This should reveal more. Faded after showing early pace when last of six on debut (14-1); should improve.

The strength of Fred On Fire's Newcastle debut success has yet to be truly tested but, given that he pulled well clear with the runner-up, he needs respecting under a penalty. Dandy Man colt King's Call represents an in-form Kevin Ryan yard so it would come as no surprise were he to feature on his racecourse bow, though preference is for PENINSULA POWER. Richard Fahey's charge shaped with promise on his first start at Redcar last month and he can step forward with that experience under his belt.

FRED ON FIRE showed a willing attitude when making a winning debut at Newcastle 18 days ago and, open to improvement, he could be worth siding with to follow up under a penalty. Kevin Ryan's Gimcrack entry King's Call appeals as a likely type on paper and he's respected. Peninsula Power and Arbitration are others to note.

Fred On Fire sets the standard but has a penalty and it could be worth taking a chance on KING'S CALL winning on his debut.

14:30 Newton Abbot Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 18f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
5	5 (5) (10/11 -36%) Mr Escobar	0.909091 10/11(-36%)	(5) Mr Escobar 10/11, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¾m) and he wasn't disgraced without looking straightforward when tenth in Cesarewitch at Newmarket (18f) back in October. However, he has to merit serious consideration now his attentions switch to hurdles for his leading Irish stable. Fairly useful Flat-racer; represents top Irish stable; makes hurdling debut today.
1	1 (1) (11/4 +8%) Boyles Hill	2.75 11/4(+8%)	(1) Boyles Hill 11/4, Successful on second of his 2 starts in points and having finished runner-up on bumper debut in April, he ran creditably when third of 13 on hurdles debut in a Ffos Las maiden (15.8f) a month later. Claims here with progress anticipated. Irish point winner; sound effort when third on hurdle debut; has a big role to play here.
4	4 (4) (11/2 -22%) Manowest	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(4) Manowest 11/2, £6,500 6-y-o, Mahler gelding. Dam, ran once over hurdles/once in bumper, half-sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chase winner (stayed 2½m) Golan Guy. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 6). Goes hurdling now for very good stable and he commands a second look. Bought for £6,500 after Irish point win in May; market may point the way on rules debut.
9	9 (9) (9/1 +10%) Miss Goldfire	9 9/1(+10%)	(9) Miss Goldfire 9/1, Made a winning bumper debut in March 2023. Seen only twice since and she looked badly in need of the experience when tenth of 13 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, good) on hurdles bow 60 days ago. In good hands and this should reveal more. Looked promising in bumpers but lacked fluency and was always behind on her hurdling debut.
3	3 (3) (33/1 -106%) Killard Point	33 33/1(-106%)	(3) Killard Point 33/1, €32,500 3-y-o, Kitkou gelding. Dam 17f hurdle winner in France, also 1½m winner on Flat. Off mark in points at sixth attempt (May 26). Betting should prove a useful guide on Rules/hurdles debut. Off the mark in points at ninth attempt in May; makes rules debut here.
6	6 (6) (40/1 -21%) Too Sharp	40 40/1(-21%)	(6) Too Sharp 40/1, Teofilo gelding who offered little in trio of juvenile hurdles in Ireland during 2022/23 campaign. Will likely hold more chance once sent handicapping for new stable. Soundly beaten on three Irish hurdles in 2022-23 season; makes stable debut today.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -100%) Granny Smith	66 66/1(-100%)	(11) Granny Smith 66/1, Unplaced on her sole outing in points and only minor promise on first of 2 starts in bumpers in recent weeks. Probably best watched on hurdles debut. Well down the field in Worcester bumper a fortnight ago; makes hurdling debut today.
7	7 (7) (66/1 -32%) Stage Show	66 66/1(-32%)	(7) Stage Show 66/1, Fair maiden on Flat, stays 1½m, not seen to best effect on latest start in that sphere at Lingfield 16 days ago. Looked badly in need of experience when making hurdles debut at Stratford previously and he's best watched at present. Fair on the Flat but made jumping errors and was well-beaten 50-1 shot on hurdle debut.
8	8 (8) (66/1 -32%) Ask Her Out	66 66/1(-32%)	(8) Ask Her Out 66/1, Fair bumper winner but looks a likely type for handicaps in this sphere judged on her exploits in maiden/novice hurdles in recent months. Shock bumper winner in November but has not shown enough on her first two hurdling starts.
2	2 (2) (150/1 -50%) Johnnie River	150 150/1(-50%)	(2) Johnnie River 150/1, Telescope gelding out of 1½m-1¾m winner who stayed 16.5f. Well held only start in bumpers/on Flat to date. Tailed off on bumper debut in October and also struggled on the Flat in Jersey last month.
12	12 (12) (150/1 -50%) What An Icon	150 150/1(-50%)	(12) What An Icon 150/1, Poor maiden on Flat who has offered little over hurdles so far. Looks set for another struggle returned to maiden company. Safely held off lowly mark in 2m1f handicap here last month; now 0-7 over hurdles.
10	10 (10) (150/1 +0%) Mutley Crew	150 150/1(+0%)	(10) Mutley Crew 150/1, Mutathir mare. Dam ran twice on Flat. 66/1, could hardly have shown any less on her belated debut when ninth of 12 in novice hurdle at this course (16.8f, good, 66/1) 31 days ago, losing touch long way out. Readily passed over. Lacked fluency and was tailed off when 66-1 for debut here (2m1f) a month ago.

Having placed in third on his hurdles bow at Ffos Las in May, BOYLES HILL should put that experience to good use. The son of Watar has also proven himself in soft underfoot conditions in the past, and he rates the one to beat. Market support for fellow point-to-point winner Manowest would be interesting on his Rules debut and the six-year-old warrants respect, but the Willie Mullins-trained Mr Escobar may give the selection most to think about on his first outing in this sphere.

MR ESCOBAR didn't always look straightforward when campaigned on the Flat but his leading Irish stable looks to have found a very good starting point now his attentions switch to timber and he gets the nod to come out on top. Boyles Hill, following his encouraging Ffos Las third, and point-scorer Manowest can provide chief resistance.

Hurdling debutant MR ESCOBAR, who was fairly useful on the Flat and is a rare runner here for champion trainer Willie Mullins.

14:40 Downpatrick Maiden Hurdle 18f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
2	2 (2) (Evens +33%) Coole Cherry	0 Evens(+33%)	(2) Coole Cherry Evens, Promising sort. 3/1, good third of 12 in novice hurdle at Wexford (24f, soft) when last seen 10 months ago. Back down in trip and, with the promise of better to come, she merits serious consideration. Latest third was over 3m but showed in bumpers that she's quick enough for this trip.
12	12 (12) (3/1 -117%) Hey Whatever	3 3/1(-117%)	(12) Hey Whatever 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, fell in novice hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good) 10 days ago. Close third and keeping on at the time of his depature. Big player. Would have at least made the frame had she not come down late on at Cork.
14	14 (14) (7/1 -8%) She Can Do It	7 7/1(-8%)	(14) She Can Do It 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 18/1, second of 8 in bumper at this C&D (good) 29 days ago. Claims granted a clear round now switched to hurdles. Came from off the pace she was best of the rest behind an easy Elliott winner in a bumper.
3	3 (3) (12/1 +25%) Gina Moon	12 12/1(+25%)	(3) Gina Moon 12/1, Promising sort. 7/1, tenth of 14 in novice hurdle at Wexford (20.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 81 days ago. Should progress for top yard (also represented by Hey Whatever). Well related but found no fluency in her jumping when tailed off at Wexford.
11	11 (11) (20/1 -67%) Give Her Hollie	20 20/1(-67%)	(11) Give Her Hollie 20/1, Casamento filly. Half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser On The Bridge and fairly useful hurdler Fairytale Theatre, stayed 3m. Entitled to come on for the run. Related to winning jumpers and the market can guide on debut.
9	9 (9) (28/1 -133%) Cornamona Park	28 28/1(-133%)	(9) Cornamona Park 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, eighth of 13 in novice hurdle at this course (18.8f, good) 30 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Beaten 24l and 31l in two maiden hurdles, the latest at this track; now in cheekpieces.
6	6 (6) (40/1 +20%) Kilrush Lady	40 40/1(+20%)	(6) Kilrush Lady 40/1, Once-raced maiden. 9/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 45 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Hard to warm to. Not unbacked at Tramore (2m5f, yielding; 9-1) but was always behind before pulling up.
8	8 (8) (50/1 +0%) Whitewinewednesday	50 50/1(+0%)	(8) Whitewinewednesday 50/1, Once-raced maiden. Tenth of 17 in bumper (66/1) at Punchestown (16.6f, good) on NH debut. Off 9 months ahead of this hurdles debut. A weakener when beaten 23l in a Punchestown bumper last October (66-1); showed something.
15	15 (15) (66/1 -450%) Spread The Faith	66 66/1(-450%)	(15) Spread The Faith 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 14 in bumper (150/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 106 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Tailed off in both her bumpers on testing ground; different conditions here may assist.
1	1 (1) (66/1 -32%) Bishbashbosh	66 66/1(-32%)	(1) Bishbashbosh 66/1, Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 13 in novice hurdle (25/1) at this course (18.8f, good) on NH debut 30 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Gary McGill. Best to look elsewhere. Made the frame in two points but needs to step up on her 25l seventh here a month ago.
5	5 (5) (150/1 -650%) Kathleen Gold	150 150/1(-650%)	(5) Kathleen Gold 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 13 in bumper at Navan (16f, good to soft, 200/1). Off 17 months ahead of this hurdles debut. Beaten in four bumpers and her most promising performance was on debut; off since Feb 2023.
13	13 (13) (200/1 -400%) Mutha	200 200/1(-400%)	(13) Mutha 200/1, Once-raced maiden. Hooded, sixth of 7 in novice hurdle (25/1) at Bellewstown (17.2f, good to firm) on NH debut 9 days ago. Hard to fancy. The hood made no difference when tailed off at Bellewstown only last week.
7	7 (7) (200/1 -300%) Legacy Juno	200 200/1(-300%)	(7) Legacy Juno 200/1, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Broke blood vessel when pulled up in novice hurdle at this course (18.8f, good, 125/1) on hurdles bow 30 days ago, bad mistake 3 out. Minor promise in bumpers before returning from long absence here last month and pulling up.
4	4 (4) (200/1 -203%) Hanara Rovan	200 200/1(-203%)	(4) Hanara Rovan 200/1, Once-raced maiden. 28/1, last of 10 in bumper at Limerick (16f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 20 months and probably best watched on hurdles/yard debut. In a different yard when tailed off in a soft-ground bumper at Limerick in late 2022.
10	10 (10) (300/1 -355%) Equine Angel	300 300/1(-355%)	(10) Equine Angel 300/1, Once-raced maiden. Twelfth of 17 in bumper (33/1) at Tipperary (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 11 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. Related to winners but didn't show a lot in a Tipperary bumper when a 33-1 chance.

HEY WHATEVER was placed a number of times on the Flat for Noel Meade gaining a rating in the mid 70s and may have found winter ground too testing when switched to hurdles by current connections. The selection seemed to appreciate a sounder surface at Cork last time and was still in contention when falling at the last. Hopefully she's none the worse for that tumble and gets the vote over Coole Cherry who was frustrating to follow in bumpers filling the runner-up spot four times. She weakened in the closing stages in a three-mile maiden hurdle at Wexford and now reappears after a ten-month break. Give Her Hollie is a newcomer to note in the market.

This looks between HEY WHATEVER and Coole Cherry, with preference for the former who was in the process of running a big race when coming down at the last at Cork. She will take plenty of stopping granted a clear round. Coole Cherry arguably possess the greater potential of the two and while she is entitled to come on for the run following a 10-month absence, she is greatly respected. The selection's stablemate Gina Moon and hurdles debutante She Can Do It can scrap it out for minor honours.

Coole Cherry ran over 3m last time and former Flat racer HEY WHATEVER could have the superior gears around here on good ground.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
6	6 (6) (5/2 -67%) Jumeira Vision	2.5 5/2(-67%)	(6) Jumeira Vision 5/2, Career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to soft, 9/4) 2 days ago. Obvious claims under penalty bidding for 4-timer. In good form recently, completing a hat-trick on Saturday; penalised; should go well again.
4	4 (4) (7/2 +30%) Young Fire	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(4) Young Fire 7/2, Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (10/3) at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 10 days ago, clear of rest. Merits consideration from the same mark. Conditions suit, is 18lb lower than last winning mark and a good 2nd last time; chance.
9	9 (9) (9/1 -64%) Braes Of Doune	9 9/1(-64%)	(9) Braes Of Doune 9/1, Course winner. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at this course (10f, good to firm, 6/4) 8 days ago, slowly away but sticking to his task. Only win was over 1m2f; effective at 1m; placed all three starts in 2024; each-way chance.
8	8 (8) (10/1 +38%) Going Underground	10 10/1(+38%)	(8) Going Underground 10/1, Course winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Musselburgh (7.1f, good) 12 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Needs things to fall right given usual tactics. Narrow win over 7f here last month; not so good next time; has won at 1m; can pull hard.
3	3 (3) (14/1 -40%) My Harrison George	14 14/1(-40%)	(3) My Harrison George 14/1, Shaped quite nicely when sixth of 16 in handicap at York (10.2f, good to soft) 31 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Down in trip/class so he looks a major player. 0-11; tried up to 1m4f this term (headgear on last twice); quite interesting down in trip.
5	5 (5) (22/1 -300%) Island Of Skye	22 22/1(-300%)	(5) Island Of Skye 22/1, First run since leaving Eve Johnson Houghton and career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 21 days ago, overcoming pace bias in the process. May have more to offer for this yard. First turf win last time (cheekpieces back on); same headgear; 2lb higher; a possible.
7	7 (7) (50/1 -317%) Golden Valour	50 50/1(-317%)	(7) Golden Valour 50/1, Temperamental sort. C&D winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Latest win here in May. Below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm, 22/1) 33 days ago, hanging right. Off the mark on turf at 30th attempt when scoring over C&D in May; not so good last time.
2	2 (2) (80/1 -567%) Jkr Cobbler	80 80/1(-567%)	(2) Jkr Cobbler 80/1, Course winner who made a winning reappearance at Carlisle in May. 4/1, slightly better than the result when seventh of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (7.8f, soft) 28 days ago. Hood back on. All four wins have been over 7f on good to soft (three of them here); not as good at 1m.
1	1 (1) (100/1 -400%) Black Friday	100 100/1(-400%)	(1) Black Friday 100/1, Four-time course winner. Sixth of 8 in handicap (18/1) at this course (7.2f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Stays this far and this represents a drop in grade. Won 7 races at up to 7f; close 3rd over 8.5f in May; suited by some give; on a good mark.

ISLAND OF SKYE showed a willing attitude when recording a narrow success on the back of a 170-day absence at Thirsk three weeks ago. That performance can be marked up given that he was held up off a slow pace and, should he take another step forward, a 2lb rise in more than manageable. Young Fire bumped into a progressive rival at Doncaster recently and has to be of significant interest along with Going Underground. If turned out quickly following Saturday's victory at Hamilton, Jumeira Vision commands the utmost respect in search of a four-timer.

This looks a strong race for the grade with ISLAND OF SKYE awarded the vote having overcome the run of the race when making a successful stable debut at Thirsk 3 weeks ago. My Harrison George is still a maiden but shaped well in a deeper handicap than this at York last time, with Young Fire and Jumeira Vision likely to be bang there again.

Although without a recent win YOUNG FIRE is really well handicapped at present and is just preferred to Jumeira Vision.

1	1 (1) (11/10 -38%) In This World	1.1 11/10(-38%)	(1) In This World 11/10, Flat/hurdles winner in 2021 and immediately improved for the switch to fences in recent months, building on a series of runners-up efforts when winning 8-runner handicap chase at Worcester (16.5f) 3 weeks ago, well on top finish. Big shout again. Reeled in clear leader to win at Worcester last month and probably still has potential.
3	3 (3) (2/1 +43%) Feel The Pinch	2 2/1(+43%)	(3) Feel The Pinch 2/1, Prolific since joining present stable, successful 5 times during 2023 and confirmed he's at the top of his game when going in again over hurdles here (16.8f) 10 days ago, driven clear between last 2. Not discounted back over fences for all his revised mark demands more. Won readily over hurdles here last week; obvious contender on return to chasing.
2	2 (2) (7/2 +22%) Opening Bid	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(2) Opening Bid 7/2, Won 5 times over fences last term (including over C&D) and he's returned to pick of his form in recent weeks, fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (2m) 15 days ago. 3 lb above last winning mark but respected in any case. Very creditable fourth off this mark in valuable race at Uttoxeter two weeks ago.
4	4 (4) (10/1 -54%) Silent Revolution	10 10/1(-54%)	(4) Silent Revolution 10/1, Had wind op/tongue strap on for 1st time when respectable third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Newbury (20.5f) in December. However, not matched that either start since, running no sort of race returned to this sphere at Warwick in May. Needs to leave that well behind. Useful hurdler when on song but has looked dicey in both his chases.
5	5 (5) (40/1 -60%) L'impertinent	40 40/1(-60%)	(5) L'impertinent 40/1, Fairly useful hurdle/chase winner for Enda Bolger in 2022. Record distinctly mixed for Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero and pulled up on debut for new yard in a C&D handicap 31 days ago. Good deal to prove. Pulled up over C&D on last month's stable debut and has become hard to predict.

IN THIS WORLD built on a trio of runner-up efforts when opening his account over fences at Worcester. The Dan Skelton-trained gelding was value for further that day and a 6lb higher mark might not be enough to prevent him from completing the double. Fellow last-time-out winner Feel The Pinch scored on the hurdle track at this venue and the switch to chasing shouldn't prevent another bold bid. He is feared most, ahead of Opening Bid.

IN THIS WORLD has taken well to this discipline and produced a professional display when opening his account in good style at Worcester 19 days ago, leading run-in and well on top finish. He can defy the handicapper and follow up. Opening Bid and Feel The Pinch, who has built up an impressive strike rate for his present yard, rate next best.

A commendable fourth off this mark in a competitive race at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago, OPENING BID might dominate from the front here.

9	9 (9) (5/6 -24%) Step Out	0.833333 5/6(-24%)	(9) Step Out 5/6, Fair hurdler. Unseated rider in novice hurdle (5/2) at this course (21.8f, good) 29 days ago, yet to be asked for effort when unseated 2 out, looking sure to play hand in finish. Looks the one to beat. Engaged 2.15 Perth Sunday. Placed again over hurdles when only headed late on at Perth yesterday.

Off 21 months. First run for yard after leaving W. McCreery. One to consider. Flat winner; long-time absent but changed hands for 37,000euros and could make a hurdler.
7	7 (7) (16/1 +68%) Peddler's Lane	16 16/1(+68%)	(7) Peddler's Lane 16/1, Once-raced maiden. First run since leaving A. J. Martin when pulled up in novice hurdle (150/1) at Navan (16f, heavy) on NH debut, tailed off when pulled up after last. Off 7 months.

11	11 (11) (50/1 -150%) Head For Home	50 50/1(-150%)	(11) Head For Home 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventeenth of 18 in novice hurdle (40/1) at Tipperary (20.4f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Tailed off in 2m4f maidens; shorter trip is unlikely to be a positive being stoutly bred.

Sixteenth of 18 in novice hurdle (200/1) at Tipperary (20.4f, good to soft) 11 days ago. RESERVE. Reserve; some promise on Flat but may do well to win a maiden judged on initial efforts.

Shinnhill showed some promise behind Le Coq Hardi at Down Royal, but a chance is taken with MARCHER LORD. Lightly raced since winning a Navan maiden on debut for Willie McCreery, it would be no surprise to see him be highly competitive following a lengthy lay-off. Bodybuilder won a point-to-point in the UK but was soundly beaten behind the impressive Belloccio in a Punchestown maiden hurdle with Mortimer Duke further behind.

STEP OUT is the clear form pick and was yet to be asked for his effort when unseating two out here last time, so he's preferred to hurdling newcomer Marcher Lord, who has a lengthy absence to overcome. Shinnhill could feature if he's back to the form he showed on hurdling debut.

The consistent STEP UP might go one better than yesterday at Perth should he turn out again. Shinnhill is the best alternative.

Runner-up all four starts for new yard, including in cheekpieces last time; should go well.
7	7 (7) (4/1 -78%) Alfa Kellenic	4 4/1(-78%)	(7) Alfa Kellenic 4/1, Progressive sort, completing hat-trick in 11-runner handicap at York (6f, good to soft) 31 days ago, well on top finish. Should have more to offer still. Two emphatic handicap wins last month; in deeper today but doubt she's reached her ceiling.
2	2 (2) (13/2 +0%) Aberama Gold	6.5 13/2(+0%)	(2) Aberama Gold 13/2, C&D winner who continues to ease in the weights but remains with only one standout effort this season. On a good mark and ran well in this race last year; revival unlikely to be too far away.
9	9 (9) (8/1 +27%) The Caltonian	8 8/1(+27%)	(9) The Caltonian 8/1, 15/2, good second of 6 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago. Respected off same mark. Lower rating on turf and he's finished 2nd over C&D the last twice; should go well again.
10	10 (10) (16/1 -167%) Batal Zabeel	16 16/1(-167%)	(10) Batal Zabeel 16/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Ripon (6f, good, 10/1) 26 days ago, driven out. Player. Took form to new level when winning at Ripon last month (6f, soft); up 3lb in better race.
1	1 (1) (22/1 -214%) Dare To Hope	22 22/1(-214%)	(1) Dare To Hope 22/1, Latest win at Beverley in April. 13/2, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good) 16 days ago. Enters calculations. Improving as a 4yo, keeping on well at Chester last month; another career best needed.
3	3 (3) (40/1 -233%) Tinto	40 40/1(-233%)	(3) Tinto 40/1, Latest win at Thirsk in May. 8/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Runner-up in the Silver Cup here last year; cheekpieces back for the first time since.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -371%) Catherine Chroi	66 66/1(-371%)	(11) Catherine Chroi 66/1, C&D winner. 6 wins from 10 runs this year. Third of 5 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good, 4/1) 13 days ago. Had a fine year, winning six times since March; this looks too competitive though.
6	6 (6) (100/1 -257%) Call Me Ginger	100 100/1(-257%)	(6) Call Me Ginger 100/1, Ended last season out of sorts and poor efforts both starts this season. Two heavy defeats this year; Paul Mulrennan back on today and he's on a dangerous mark.
8	8 (8) (100/1 -203%) Jump The Gun	100 100/1(-203%)	(8) Jump The Gun 100/1, Course winner who added to his tally at Newcastle (6f) in November. Operating below best this year, however. Inconsistent but capable on his day and well treated; others safer all the same.
5	5 (5) (100/1 -1011%) Twilight Romance	100 100/1(-1011%)	(5) Twilight Romance 100/1, Got back on the up when second of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f). Ground possibly against him at York since. One good run and two lesser efforts this year; unexposed & return to better ground a plus.

Mythical Phoenix deserves a change of luck having occupied the runner-up spot on each of his four starts for the Julie Camacho team. He's considered nudged up a further 1lb in the ratings, but the unexposed ALFA KELLENIC is a sprinter on the up and she gets the vote. A comfortable winner at Thirsk on her handicap bow in June, she followed up in similar fashion at York a week later, suggesting she is surely capable of defying a hefty 9lb rise. Others to note include Aberama Gold and Batal Zabeel.

Progressive 3-y-o ALFA KELLENIC had something in hand when completing the hat-trick at York so looks one to keep on the right side of. Batal Zabeel is another 3-y-o on the upgrade and is next best ahead of the consistent Mythical Phoenix.

The return of cheekpieces can see Tinto go well but ALFA KELLENIC is improving at a rapid rate and can make it four in a row.

Didn't have chance market suggested from out of the weights here 10 days ago and he's back on his correct mark this time. Improving 5yo who is 2-3 in handicaps and needs to be taken very seriously.
3	3 (3) (9/4 -29%) Winterwatch	2.25 9/4(-29%)	(3) Winterwatch 9/4, Three-time winner on the Flat who finally got off the mark over hurdles in first-time cheekpieces in 10-runner handicap here over 18.5f in May. Held back by a mistake when third back in novice company at Stratford but he ought to be bang there in this. Placed in Stratford novice since emphatic handicap win here in May; in the mix again.
1	1 (1) (4/1 -167%) Clearance	4 4/1(-167%)	(1) Clearance 4/1, Smooth-traveller who added to his terrific course record when scoring cosily over 16.8f a month ago. 3 lb rise perfectly so he's probably the one to beat in hat-trick bid. Six-time course winner; as good as ever this spring and commands respect.
2	2 (2) (10/1 -54%) Manor Park	10 10/1(-54%)	(2) Manor Park 10/1, Three-time C&D winner who has yet to fully find his feet for this yard but fitted with a hood, he took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 7 over C&D 10 days ago. Seemed to respond quite well to headgear switch when close fourth here last week; a player.
4	4 (4) (20/1 +39%) Cillians Charm	20 20/1(+39%)	(4) Cillians Charm 20/1, Fairly useful form at best in Ireland, but after a 14-month absence, he's yet to prove that he retains this much ability for this yard. Cheekpieces replace hood. Looked out of sorts in three handicaps for this new stable last month.

The hat-trick seeking Clearance warrants respect in his current heart and the son of Authorized is likely to give another good account of himself. However, he hasn't always performed to his best on a slower surface, and this could prove a suitable opportunity for WINTERWATCH to regain the winning thread. Harry Fry's charge performed creditably behind a subsequent winner in a novice hurdle at Stratford last month and this return to handicap company will suit. Melton Mossy also enters calculations dropping in class.

You can set your watch by CLEARANCE over this C&D, and back from a short break up 3 lb, the hat-trick looks on the cards. Winterwatch should be a factor returned to handicap company, while better is expected of Melton Mossy back on his correct mark.

There is more to come from MELTON MOSSY (nap), who won his first two handicaps comfortably and was not discredited here last week.

STEPS IN THE SAND and Rightfolksplease come here with a similar profile having both filled the runner-up spot twice before scoring last time. The Cian Collins-trained mare, twice successful on the Flat, opened her account over hurdles when stepped up to 2m4f at Sligo last time while Rightfolksplease merits plenty of respect after getting off the mark over C&D last month. Tipp For Mac is another in good form at present having beaten all bar the progressive Slieve Bearnagh at Cork earlier this month, while Muhtaluza is another to consider if brushing up his jumping.

RIGHTFOLKSPLEASE has got it together of late and a 9 lb rise for his decisive C&D success last month may not be enough to stop him in his tracks. Also coming into this on the back of a breakthrough success over hurdles, Steps In The Sand is clear second choice ahead of Tipp For Mac, who is 0-15 in this sphere but has been knocking on the door of late. The Vegas Raider is not without each-way hope.

Rightfolksplease and Steps In The Sand are feared but TIPP FOR MAC is well-in with the latter on their Roscommon form.

11	11 (11) (100/1 -100%) Groove Inn	100 100/1(-100%)	(11) Groove Inn 100/1, After 5 months off, offered little on turf/handicap debut when thirteenth of 14 at Ripon (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 57 days ago. Has work to do. Yet to show much, including on handicap debut in May; too much to prove.

RAMON DI LORIA looks set to make a bold bid having finished third at Carlisle latest. He was winning off a much higher rating at the same venue last season and it could be his turn again. Atomise will likely finish in the mix once more, despite finishing only third when sent off favourite here a week ago, while Earn Your Stripes won this contest in 2022 and is preferred to Water Of Leith of the rest. Giselles Izzy isn't discounted either if backing up her Hamilton success on Saturday.

WATER OF LEITH began the year in good form, placing on all 3 of his starts in March, and he can pick up where he left off to resume winning ways back on turf. The main danger could be Ramon di Loria, who shaped encouragingly from his reduced mark on his latest outing, with Giselles Izzy also respected if turned out again quickly.

Ramon Di Loria and Water Of Leith are feared but there are grounds for expecting an improved showing from MIGHTY POWER (nap).

6	6 (6) (5/4 +38%) Limerick Leader	1.25 5/4(+38%)	(6) Limerick Leader 5/4, Fair hurdler but just a modest maiden handicap chaser for Rose Dobbin. However, still interesting runner off potentially lenient mark for new connections here. Bought for £24,000 after giving decent account for Rose Dobbin at Perth in May; yard debut.
2	2 (2) (7/4 +7%) Begin The Luck	1.75 7/4(+7%)	(2) Begin The Luck 7/4, C&D winner who posted his best effort for current yard when good second of 13 in handicap chase at this C&D (good, 8/1) 20 days ago. Solid claims. 4-11 over fences; went close over C&D last month and is probably still on a workable mark.
1	1 (1) (5/1 +29%) Imac Wood	5 5/1(+29%)	(1) Imac Wood 5/1, Three chase wins last season but not at best on his last 3 starts, back hurdling latest. Won three good-ground chases last season but his form has slumped since.
5	5 (5) (6/1 -20%) Lelant	6 6/1(-20%)	(5) Lelant 6/1, Fair form without success over hurdles but not so good over fences so far, though better than bare result over C&D latest. Eased 4 lb. 0-3 over fences and 0-12 overall but didn't run badly when well-held third here in June.
3	3 (3) (11/1 -120%) Fat Sam	11 11/1(-120%)	(3) Fat Sam 11/1, Took a heavy fall over C&D last summer and been below form since, though more of an impact of reduced mark when fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Stratford (19.4f, good, 10/3) 13 days ago. Won this in 2022; on the downgrade now but returns here after very respectable recent run.
4	4 (4) (66/1 -100%) Naeva	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Naeva 66/1, Fair form in France, winning 3 claiming events over hurdles/fences in 2022. Understandably struggled in a Cheltenham Grade 2 on debut for this yard in January 2023 but offered little returning from 17 months off over hurdles here 31 days ago. Pulled-up over hurdles here last month, after a long layoff; current ability hard to gauge.
7	7 (7) (80/1 +20%) Hedgehopper	80 80/1(+20%)	(7) Hedgehopper 80/1, Maiden pointer and no form under Rules. Miles out of the handicap. Placed in maiden points this spring but makes only limited appeal on this rules return.

BEGIN THE LUCK found only an unexposed chaser too strong over C&D last month and this looks a good opportunity to go one better. That said, previous C&D winner Fat Sam continues to edge down the weights and there was encouragement to be drawn from his recent Stratford fourth. Limerick Leader showed up well for a long way at Perth in May and recent wind surgery could spark some improvement.

LIMERICK LEADER is potentially on a nice mark starting out for an in-form yard so could be the answer. Begin The Luck was an excellent second over C&D 3 weeks ago and is a solid alternative.

Olly Murphy's new recruit LIMERICK LEADER has been given a wind op and might capitalise upon a career-low mark here.

Info	Form	Odds
2	2 (2) (11/8 +8%) River Tara	1.375 11/8(+8%)	(2) River Tara 11/8, Promising type. One win from 3 runs last season. Creditable second of 18 in novice hurdle at Listowel (20f, soft, 3/1) when last seen 9 months ago. Remains open to improvement and will surely be bang there at the finish, provided she is fully tuned-up. Course bumper winner and placed in both her maiden hurdles; thereabouts.
8	8 (8) (7/2 +30%) Ollie La Ba Ba	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(8) Ollie La Ba Ba 7/2, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 7 hurdle runs. 16/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 13 in novice hurdle at this course (21.8f, good) 29 days ago. Place possibilities. Closely matched with Charlie's Dilemma on a recent C&D clash; fair shout.
3	3 (3) (7/2 -100%) Beaufort Scale	3.5 7/2(-100%)	(3) Beaufort Scale 7/2, Promising type. 11/1, second of 15 in novice hurdle at Cork (24f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 10 days ago. Should progress with that run under his belt and he's a key player. Strong form claims, provided he doesn't get outpaced around here back in trip.
4	4 (4) (7/2 +61%) Charlie's Dilemma	3.5 7/2(+61%)	(4) Charlie's Dilemma 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden under Rules. Very good second of 13 in novice hurdle (25/1) at this course (21.8f, good) 29 days ago. Live each-way chance if able to build on that effort. Runner-up in a C&D maiden last month and won't be far away with something similar.
1	1 (1) (10/1 +17%) Midleton Rare	10 10/1(+17%)	(1) Midleton Rare 10/1, Lightly-raced winner under Rules (successful in a bumper). 10/3, twelfth of 22 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good) on hurdles bow 37 days ago. Should improve. Impressive bumper winner; unlikely that he gave true running when 100-30 for hurdle debut.
7	7 (7) (18/1 -29%) Look Dont Touch	18 18/1(-29%)	(7) Look Dont Touch 18/1, Fair chaser. Remains a maiden after 16 hurdle runs. Below form fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Sligo (25.8f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Has the form to feature but below par the last twice and he's now 0-27.
9	9 (9) (22/1 -120%) Vaureal	22 22/1(-120%)	(9) Vaureal 22/1, €72,000 3-y-o, Kapgarde gelding. Brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/very smart chaser Hammersly Lake and useful chaser Almazhar Garde, stays 3¾m. Pulled up sole start between the flags but worth a second look in the betting nonetheless. Showed some ability before ultimately pulling up in only point, for which he was just 3-1.
10	10 (10) (100/1 -52%) Western Ability	100 100/1(-52%)	(10) Western Ability 100/1, Once-raced maiden. 66/1, eighth of 15 in novice hurdle at this course (18.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 52 days ago. Nothing to shout about in points and was well beaten in a maiden hurdle here in May.
11	11 (11) (100/1 -52%) Nicolas Fortune	100 100/1(-52%)	(11) Nicolas Fortune 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden under Rules. 66/1, sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Roscommon (20.6f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 7 days ago. Placed in two points but has weak form claims on what she's shown under rules.
5	5 (5) (150/1 -355%) Dersalwayssometin	150 150/1(-355%)	(5) Dersalwayssometin 150/1, Califet gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner Paddy The Wire. Stable in good form. Probably best watched on debut. Half-brother to bumper winner Paddy The Wire; dam failed to complete in points.
6	6 (6) (200/1 -700%) Imperial Fashion	200 200/1(-700%)	(6) Imperial Fashion 200/1, Imperial Monarch gelding. Half-brother to modest hurdler Bearwithmenow. No impact in 2 starts between the flags. Insufficient promise in his two points to warrant a second glance in this maiden.

BEAUFORT SCALE showed some promise in bumpers and made a bright start over hurdles at Cork recently when second to Now So Jake in a three-mile maiden. The Sholokhov gelding stays well and has scope for further improvement. River Tara is an obvious threat having won a bumper in good style here last summer and was placed on both subsequent hurdle starts last year including when second to Tag Man at Listowel. Charlie's Dilemma and Ollie La Ba Ba filled the minor places behind Talk In The Park over C&D last month and Eoin McCarthy's gelding now looks the bigger danger having been hampered in the closing stages. Midleton Rare won a Fairyhouse bumper in good style last autumn but needs to improve on his reappearance over hurdles at Punchestown.

Promising types BEAUFORT SCALE and River Tara are likely to come to the fore in this maiden. The latter is not passed over at all lightly but Beaufort Scale shades preference on the back of a very encouraging hurdles debut second at Cork. Though Ollie La Ba Ba was a place behind the re-opposing Charlie's Dilemma when third here last month, he was hampered in the closing stages on that occasion and may well reverse those placings granted better luck this time.

Preference is for RIVER TARA who won her bumper here and has made a solid enough start over hurdles.

Major claims from the same mark with yard amongst the winners. In fine form at about 1m this year, winning 3; this easy 7f might not be enough of a test.

Favourable mark when 7f Musselburgh winner latest; back up 6lb but still well treated.

Below form when ninth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft, 12/1) 5 weeks ago, missing break. Career-low mark to work with today if able to bounce back. Turf maiden; some encouragement on 2nd run for yard but well held over 7f since.

Remains with little form on turf so looks an easy swerve. Promising as 2yo/3yo but disappointments mounting up; at least the return to 7f will suit.
9	9 (9) (28/1 -75%) Zachary	28 28/1(-75%)	(9) Zachary 28/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 18/1, continued out of sorts when fourth of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago.

CODE PURPLE has slipped down the handicap ratings and took advantage to record a comfortable success at Musselburgh. He made every yard on that occasion and can defy a 6lb rise if allowed his own way at the head of affairs once again. Makalu has won three times over a mile already this year and can figure over this shorter distance, while Global Humor could bounce back to form at any time.

MAKALU arrives ion the form of his life and with Ruth Carr enjoying something of a purple patch at present, he's fancied to notch a fourth success of the year at the expense of Code Purple, who cashed in on career-low mark at Musselburgh earlier in the month and remains well treated on old form. The enigmatic Global Humor can edge out Concert Boy for third spot.

Makalu is having an excellent season at about 1m but CODE PURPLE was back in good form at Musselburgh and can follow up.

SEREN Y TEIGR kept on well to finish second over 2m at Ffos Las recently. Evan Williams' five-year-old looks ready for a step back up in trip on that evidence and he is taken to record a breakthrough success. Stratford winner Getmetothemoon hit the frame over 2m1f here latest. That is a solid piece of form given the winner has been on a roll recently and she merits the utmost respect from an unchanged mark. Culligran is also noted.

EURKASH has been the subject of a very interesting trainer change and is worth chancing under Harry Cobden, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Getmetothemoon has made a solid start to the season and is second choice ahead of John O'Shea's Culligran.

Getmetothemoon is respected but EURKASH makes his stable debut from a tempting mark and might be worth chancing.

RAUZAN struck form when successful over this trip at Tramore and followed up in even more impressive fashion when drawing clear on the run-in at this venue last month. The Eoin Doyle-trained gelding looks a progressive sort and can complete the hat-trick in what should be a strongly run event. Littlebiggie made all over this distance at Killarney, while Disco Dancer won at Cork last time and also likes to be up with the pace. Point-to-point winner Koori Star made a winning start under Rules at Sligo, while Notkeepinyagoing impressed when easily winning a 2m4f Leopardstown maiden on testing ground in March but has disappointed on both outings since.

RAUZAN has been a different proposition over hurdles since cheekpieces went on and in receipt of plenty of weight all round, further success may well be forthcoming. Koori Star won a point and made the perfect start under Rules at Sligo so he's a massive danger, with Disco Dancer also open to progress.

Only seven go but this is trappy. Something has clicked with RAUZAN and his proven ability to handle this track ticks a big box.

Kevin Ryan's four-year-old can return to winning ways and prevent Empire Of Light from landing a double in the process. The latter returned a surprise 28/1 winner at Haydock last month and is expected to be competitive, despite a 5lb rise, while the more exposed pair, Hortzadar and Tilsitt, have a bit more to find off their current handicap marks.

HORTZADOR looks on the cusp of another win after returning to form with a couple of good runner-up efforts last month and might be able to see off the 3-y-o challenge headed by Aviemore and last month's Haydock scorer Empire of Light.

Although disappointing on his handicap debut it could be worth giving another chance to the unexposed AVIEMORE.

4	4 (4) (11/4 +21%) The Dragon King	2.75 11/4(+21%)	(4) The Dragon King 11/4, Invincible Army colt who was quickly back on track away from the mud when winning 9-runner maiden at Doncaster (5f, firm) 58 days ago, noted travelling well and leading entering final 1f. Looks the type to make his mark now handicapping and shortlisted. 5-4, won maiden at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) last time; off nearly two months.
5	5 (5) (6/1 +33%) Storm Call	6 6/1(+33%)	(5) Storm Call 6/1, Clearly derived plenty mentally from debut when winning 8-runner C&D maiden in May. Raced freely early and ultimately weakened out of things when last of 13 in a Beverley novice (5f) subsequently. Goes handicapping now. C&D maiden winner; made the running from widest draw when last in the Hilary Needler.

Beaten a long way out in Queen Mary at Royal Ascot subsequently but feasible to think she can get back on track returned to calmer waters. AW win on second start; led early when soundly beaten at 50-1 in the Group 2 Queen Mary.
1	1 (1) (20/1 -1043%) Siegen	20 20/1(-1043%)	(1) Siegen 20/1, Blue Point who continued theme of race-by-race progress when winning 12-runner minor event at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 31 days ago, readily. Looks likely to progress further now tackling nurseries. Big player. Progressive; asserted in clearcut style in the final 1f of a novice at Sandown (5f, good).
2	2 (2) (25/1 -614%) Blinky	25 25/1(-614%)	(2) Blinky 25/1, Totally different proposition on second start when landing 7-runner novice at Leicester (5f) in May, settling better and just holding on. Found Group 2 company too hot at Royal Ascot since and switch to handicaps now rates a plus. Group 2 Norfolk (5f, good to firm) proved much too tough but he wasn't discredited.
6	6 (6) (100/1 -614%) Mademoiselle	100 100/1(-614%)	(6) Mademoiselle 100/1, Similar form to debut when ¾-length second of 10 to a newcomer in a Thirsk maiden (5f) in May. Below form having forced pace when twelfth of 13 in a Beverly novice (5f) 37 days ago and she needs to get back on track making nursery debut. Hood on 1st time. Fair form first two starts; much better than the Hilary Needler result suggests last time.

SIEGEN didn't need a second invitation when a gap finally appeared in the closing stages at Sandown, and he burst clear to win with plenty in hand. Richard Hannon's colt can take the step into nursery company in his stride. Leicester novice winner Blinky failed to get involved in the Norfolk Stakes at Ascot, but this looks more his level, while the filly Where's Clare was outclassed in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot having won on the all-weather before that.

SIEGEN improved further and looked one to keep firmly on side when opening his account in good style at Sandown 31 days ago and he's fancied to continue on his upward curve now his sights are set on nurseries. The Dragon King, who quickly got back on track at Doncaster, and Blinky are others to consider.

Preference is for the two who have come by quieter routes, with Sandown novice winner SIEGEN selected ahead of The Dragon King.

The market is likely to prove informative here and Ballydoyle newcomer SARATOGA may be worth a shot on his debut. The Camelot colt is the tenth foal of a wonderful producer, Dialafara. She has bred seven winners, the most notable of those being Irish Derby and St Leger winner Capri. Apples And Bananas shaped with promise when sixth on his debut at the Curragh and may be the pick of those that have run. Donnacha O'Brien has won this race for the past three years and Wolf Rayet commands respect on his debut. The Camelot colt is out of an American Grade 2 winner.

APPLES AND BANANAS can put his experience to good use having shaped well in a maiden at the Curragh, with this extra 1f sure to suit. Aidan O'Brien won this maiden in 2018 with subsequent Derby winner Anthony Van Dyck, and National Stakes entry Saratoga looks the pick of his 2 newcomers. Sujet is another likely type on debut.

This trip should be fine as a starting point for SARATOGA whose pedigree is geared towards middle distances. Wolf Rayet is feared

Lesser effort last time but since undergone a wind op/changed yards and will be in the mix if on-song. 0-21 over hurdles; claimed out of a seller in May; makes stable debut from good mark.
3	3 (3) (4/1 -60%) Konigin Isabella	4 4/1(-60%)	(3) Konigin Isabella 4/1, Has taken steps forward the last twice, finishing fourth of 12 at Stratford prior to opening her account over this C&D (good). 4 lb rise doesn't look at all harsh all things considered and she's a leading contender. Kept on strongly to score by a neck over C&D last month; further progress is possible.
10	10 (10) (11/2 +15%) Testflight	5.5 11/2(+15%)	(10) Testflight 11/2, Second to a bang in-form rival back from a break in a maiden hurdle in Jersey last month. Going well when unseating four out over fences at Worcester (2½m, good to firm) a fortnight ago and, 4 lb lower back in this sphere, he has to enter calculations. Seemed to be running well before falling in a recent chase; can be competitive here.
4	4 (4) (11/2 -10%) Invictus De Brion	5.5 11/2(-10%)	(4) Invictus De Brion 11/2, Plumpton bumper winner in September 2022 and bettered previous efforts in this sphere by some way when fourth in a 10-runner Worcester handicap (2m, good) last month. That was his first run for 15 months so he's entitled to come on for it. Cheekpieces applied. Pulled up in first two handicaps but returned from long break with much better run in June.
6	6 (6) (12/1 -20%) Jormungandr	12 12/1(-20%)	(6) Jormungandr 12/1, No real impact in his qualifying runs but there were more encouraging signs when fifth on recent handicap bow at Worcester (2½m, good). However, this drop back in trip may not be ideal. Very respectable fifth on last month's handicap debut; might have a bit more to offer.

Appeals as the type to improve now venturing down the handicap route. Yet to match his bumper form over hurdles but still has potential; handicap debut today.
1	1 (1) (40/1 -300%) Bears Hug	40 40/1(-300%)	(1) Bears Hug 40/1, Successful twice on the Flat (both on AW) but yet to trouble the judge in this sphere and was well beaten on second start for this yard over 16.8f here last month. Always behind here last month but may yet build upon his encouraging stable debut in May.

Big step forward required on handicap debut in this sphere. Makes handicap hurdle debut from a lowly mark but still needs to improve..
9	9 (9) (40/1 +0%) Square Du Roule	40 40/1(+0%)	(9) Square Du Roule 40/1, Poor maiden who hasn't found any improvement for the switch to handicap company the last twice. Not beaten that far in first two handicaps but latest 3lb drop not enough to tempt.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -32%) Galactic Glow	66 66/1(-32%)	(11) Galactic Glow 66/1, Three-time winner on the Flat last year but recent efforts in that sphere have lacked spark and he hasn't shown much in 5 runs over hurdles to date. 14 lb 'wrong' at the weights. Three-time winner on the Flat but has huge amount to prove over hurdles.

A step up in distance appeared to unlock some improvement in KONIGIN ISABELLA when opening her account over C&D last month. A 4lb higher rating looks more than workable for the Anthony Honeyball-trained mare and she's taken to follow up. Stable debutant Bushmill Boy looks just the type that will benefit from a change of scenery and an improved bid is forecast, while Invictus De Brion is entitled to build on last month's reappearance fourth at Worcester.

There were positives to glean from GET THE VALUE's efforts in a Stratford maiden and a novice event here in May, and he is of interest now switched to handicap company off a feasible opening mark. With recent winning form at a premium in this contest, Konigin Isabella, who got off the mark over C&D last time, has to be feared, while Bushmill Boy, Invictus de Brion and Testflight are all strong each-way contenders.

Preference is for INVICTUS DE BRION, who returned from a long layoff with a pleasing fourth at Worcester last month.

WARMER DAYS AHEAD hasn't been beaten far in his last two starts at Punchestown and may get his turn here under Phillip Enright. The Waldpark gelding found only one too good over 2m4f in May and dropping in trip probably counted against him when third last time. Going back up a couple of furlongs should bring the five-year-old's stamina into play. Stockdale hasn't been able to add to a solitary win gained over three years ago but she's been second at this track over both hurdles and fences in recent starts and is now fitted with a tongue-tie. Cullenwaine was strong at the finish when winning over course and distance last month and merits respect off a 6lb higher mark.

WARMER DAYS AHEAD has made a positive start to his career in handicaps and with this step up in trip sure to suit, he makes plenty of appeal. Cullenwaine was impressive here last month so he needs considering, along with Stockdale.

The step up in trip should suit WARMER DAYS AHEAD (nap) down the ground. Cullenwaine and Stockdale should give him a good test.

Having proved fractious at the post, Dubai Treasure failed to justify cramped odds when beaten in third at Yarmouth in August last year. The Godolphin-owned filly is a likely threat if keeping her temperament in check, but a race-fit HEART OF THE CITY rates a more solid proposition. The daughter of Night Of Thunder posted a respectable second on her debut at Newmarket last month and a breakthrough victory could be imminent. Santa Croce completes the shortlist.

This is an above-average fillies' maiden for the track and HEART OF THE CITY is the one who gets the vote having made a highly encouraging start at Newmarket. Dubai Treasure and Santa Croce are obvious dangers with the potential for better themselves.

Heart Of The City shaped well at Newmarket but DUBAI TREASURE is given another chance to confirm the promise of her 2yo debut.

BOLD IMPACT returns to action with leading claims having made a promising debut when third at Newmarket back in May. The first two home have both subsequently won, so that form looks rock-solid and he gets the vote. Rokuni has been gelded since disappointing at Leicester but had shown ability at Ascot on his debut and can't be written off, while George Scott has trained the last two winners of this and runs the newcomer The Feminine Urge. Hoodie Hoo is another debutant to note with William Buick on board.

BOLD IMPACT was surrounded by next-time-out winners when a promising third on his debut in May at Newmarket and should take a bit of stopping if making the expected improvement. The danger may come from newcomers, with Hoodie Hoo, a 220.000gns breeze-up buy, and Aparajeo a couple who make paper appeal.

Much the most convincing case can be made for BOLD IMPACT who ran so well on his debut at Newmarket in a race that has been franked.

3	3 (3) (1/2 +0%) Galen	0.5 1/2(+0%)	(3) Galen 1/2, Promising type. 1 win from 2 runs this year. 4/7, won 13-runner maiden at the Curragh (8f, good to soft) 16 days ago, keeping on well. Smart prospect. Second to City Of Troy at two, going the right way judged on wide-margin Curragh win.
1	1 (1) (9/4 +25%) Beechwood	2.25 9/4(+25%)	(1) Beechwood 9/4, Useful filly. Course winner. 7/1, 6¾ lengths sixth of 9 to Candleford in listed race at the Curragh (12f, good) 51 days ago. First run for yard after leaving John S. O'Donoghue. Hood on 1st time. Back down in class. Course maiden winner over 1m3f last year; mixed form since then, hooded for stable debut.
2	2 (2) (16/1 -327%) Buttermere Ridge	16 16/1(-327%)	(2) Buttermere Ridge 16/1, Twice-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Gowran in April. 9/2, fourth of 7 in minor event at Gowran (9.4f, good) 29 days ago. Should have more to offer still. Debut winner at Gowran, solid run at the same venue on second start, Galen may be too good.
4	4 (4) (66/1 -100%) Atheneum	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Atheneum 66/1, Vadamos gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1½m George Boole and 1m-9.5f winner Beau Geste. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Big Time. Stiff task on debut. Home-bred Vadamos gelding is a half-brother to four winners, in at the deep end here.

The 100-rated GALEN sets the standard and this is a nice stepping stone for him after an impressive maiden win at the Curragh last time. The Gleneagles colt chased home City Of Troy on his sole outing at two and after finishing second on his return this season he opened his account in style last time. Beechwood has switched to Paddy Twomey and takes a drop in class now after contesting stakes races on her two outings this term. She ran well when fourth in Listed company at Cork in April and looks the danger. Buttermere Ridge ran with credit when fourth in a decent conditions race at Gowran last month and is still unexposed on his third outing.

GALEN looked a smart prospect when a wide-margin winner of his maiden at the Curragh 16 days ago, form which is backed up by the time, and he can prove too strong for Beechwood and Buttermere Ridge.

Curragh maiden winner GALEN appeals as a colt who can go on to better things and should have too much firepower for these three rivals

Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Apr 28). Bought for £30,000 after making the frame in two Irish points; yard does well in bumpers.
1	1 (1) (3/1 -9%) Back In The Bay	3 3/1(-9%)	(1) Back In The Bay 3/1, Runner-up in a point and fourth on Rules debut at Worcester. That sets a reasonable standard and she could put her experience to good use. Ran big race when fourth on recent rules debut at Worcester; major player here.
3	3 (3) (13/2 +35%) O'malley	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(3) O'malley 13/2, Showed something to work on when fifth here on completed start, showing greenness. Capable of better with the benefit of experience. Struggled on debut in March but her C&D fifth in May was much more encouraging.
2	2 (2) (15/2 -50%) Eskimo Sam	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(2) Eskimo Sam 15/2, Black Sam Bellamy mare. Half-sister to 1¾m winner Artic Nel. Wears tongue strap. Makes plenty of appeal on paper for a yard that does well in this sphere. Yard enjoys some bumper success but this newcomer does not have an exciting pedigree.
4	4 (4) (10/1 -11%) Absence Of Malice	10 10/1(-11%)	(4) Absence Of Malice 10/1, Hillstar filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stays 25f) Pym.

5	5 (5) (11/1 -10%) Dance The Moon	11 11/1(-10%)	(5) Dance The Moon 11/1, Half-sister to numerous winners, including smart hurdler/useful chaser Thomas Campbell. Something to work on when fourth in a 17-runner event at Newbury on debut but failed to back it up at Uttoxeter last time. Has very good pedigree; made promising debut in December but flopped last month.
7	7 (7) (16/1 -146%) Polly Pi	16 16/1(-146%)	(7) Polly Pi 16/1, Mount Nelson filly. Half-sister to poor hurdler Timassini. Dam (c92/h94), temperamental 2m hurdle winner (stayed 2½m), also 10.7f winner on Flat. Noteworthy newcomer. Half-sister to low-grade hurdle winner Timassini; stable not prolific in bumpers nowadays.
6	6 (6) (20/1 +0%) Lady Henrietta	20 20/1(+0%)	(6) Lady Henrietta 20/1, Has hinted at ability in a couple of bumpers but looks more one for the longer term. May not be straightforward but was not beaten far on her first two starts.

There was plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from BACK IN THE BAY's fourth-placed Rules bow at Worcester at the start of July. An extra furlong is sure to suit the daughter of Doyen and she ticks the most boxes. Fellow point-to-point runner-up Pure Seduction may serve the most resistance to the selection on her debut in this sphere, ahead of the Tom Lacey-trained newcomer Eskimo Sam.

PURE SEDUCTION has shown ability in points and her stable has a good record in this sphere, so she's marginally preferred to Back In The Bay, who made a positive start under Rules at Worcester last time. Eskimo Sam is also considered.

Irish point runner-up BACK IN THE BAY made a pretty good start to her rules career at Worcester last month and gets the nod.

Should get off the mark at the second attempt. Warm order to collect on debut when narrowly denied at Clonmel, compensation looks likely.
3	3 (3) (11/4 +14%) Eoin's Charm	2.75 11/4(+14%)	(3) Eoin's Charm 11/4, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Second of 15 in bumper (11/4) at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) on bumper debut 28 days ago, no match for winner. One to consider.

1	1 (1) (11/1 +78%) Cap Bernat	11 11/1(+78%)	(1) Cap Bernat 11/1, Remains a maiden after 7 bumper runs. Bit below form fourth of 9 in bumper (14/1) at this course (18.8f, good) 30 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Should come on from recent spin here but has played a fair few cards, first time hood.
8	8 (8) (12/1 -41%) Royal Attitude	12 12/1(-41%)	(8) Royal Attitude 12/1, Primary mare. Dam unraced. Not much to go on pedigree but stable can ready a newcomer, so worthy of some respect in a race that lacks depth. Newcomer from a shrewd source, any positive market vibes would be of obvious interest.

Third on first of 4 starts in points, unplaced last time (May 19). Point-to-point form hardly screams out a win is imminent; looks to have her work cut out.
10	10 (10) (16/1 -45%) Blacksmiths Forge	16 16/1(-45%)	(10) Blacksmiths Forge 16/1, Kalanisi filly. Half-sister to 2 winning pointers. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 23f) Corinto. Newcomer related to a couple of winners, will know what to expect, far from ruled out.
4	4 (4) (16/1 +20%) Kinnagrelly Boy	16 16/1(+20%)	(4) Kinnagrelly Boy 16/1, Once-raced maiden. 13/2, eighth of 15 in bumper at Kilbeggan (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 28 days ago. Not short of each-way support when eighth at Kilbeggan (Eoin's Charm second); not ignored.

It's hard to oppose the Willie Mullins-trained CUCKOO VALLEY, who went down by only a neck when odds-on for his debut at Clonmel in May. The winner has shown the form in a favourable light with a couple of good runs on the Flat lately and the half-brother to a Grade 2-winning hurdler can improve for stepping up in trip here. Eoin's Charm is clearly the danger after showing promise over hurdles before finishing second in a bumper at Kilbeggan. He was tapped for toe on that occasion and is another who will appreciate this greater test of stamina. The Crawford's have plenty of bumper winners and any market support for their newcomer Royal Attitude would be significant.

CUCKOO VALLEY's second at Clonmel on debut is clearly the best piece of form on show and he's more than likely to go one better at the second attempt. Eoin's Charm is a player on the back of a solid showing and Royal Attitude is of interest first time out.

The Willie Mullins-trained CUCKOO VALLEY sets the standard on the back of a narrow defeat on debut at Clonmel and will take stopping.

The class-dropping SHEILA'S PARADISE proved far more competitive when runner-up on his handicap bow at Kempton last month and a 1lb nudge up in the ratings looks negligible. Compensation could await the Richard Hannon-trained colt, at the main expense of Giorgio M. The son of Profitable is best excused his fifth-placed defeat at Beverley in late June after rearing when the stalls opened. Zipster and Commander Of Life are also noted.

ZIPSTER was quite impressive when scoring at Yarmouth on his penultimate outing and he's probably best excused a lesser showing at Sandown since, so he's worth a chance to resume progress. He can get the better of the likes of Giorgio M and Sheila's Paradise, who both arrive in good order.

The Crisford yard is going well again and ZIPSTER can be excused his backward step at Sandown on account of the soft ground.

UNDER SIEGE found only Lead Artist too good at York on his latest start and stands out from the pack on that form. The winner has since placed in Listed company and Andrew Balding's grey colt faces nothing of that calibre in this. Min Huna showed a modicum of improvement at Goodwood but there should be more to come from her, while stable companion Bullet Point is upped in trip with a chance of finishing closer. Shamran is a likely improver and is preferred of the rest.

UNDER SIEGE sets the bar high for a race like this and should make it third time lucky. There was plenty to like about Shamran's opening effort at Chelmsford and he might be the one for the forecast spot ahead of William Haggas pair Min Huna and Bullet Point.

This has a standout candidate in UNDER SIEGE, who's been easily the most competitive in this field and has comfortably the best form.

Kevin Prendergast gives Jack Cleary the leg up now in a bid to offset the 7lb rise COPIE CONFORME received for her win at Bellewstown 11 days ago. The Make Believe filly opened her account when dropping back to this trip last time and still looks open to a bit more improvement. Noel Meade has his string in fine form and Gandolfo is interesting back in a handicap having slid a few pounds. The Churchill gelding had some strong maiden form last season and Neil Ryan takes a useful 7lb off his back now. The lightly-weighted Grand Citadel ran well when second at Navan on Saturday and is another for the shortlist.

COPIE CONFORME took a step forward returned to this trip when off the mark at Bellewstown 11 days ago and is taken to follow up with apprentice Jack Cleary offsetting a 7 lb rise. Grand Citadel ran a cracker when second in a big field at Navan on Saturday and is the obvious threat if turned out quickly off the same mark. Avatar Jet is another to consider.

It could be worth taking a chance with GANDOLFO whose only previous handicap start was off 8lb higher in a valuable nursery.

HIgh on the shortlist if translating that back on all-weather. Ended losing run in style at Yarmouth last week; big chance if turning up in the same form.
6	6 (6) (9/2 +55%) Top Button	4.5 9/2(+55%)	(6) Top Button 9/2, 9/2, 7 lengths second of 8 to Kodebreaker in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to soft) 5 days ago, no impression on winner. Headgear discarded and needs to bounce back returned to all-weather. 0-15 and finished 7l behind Kodebreaker when 2nd at Yarmouth last week; others appeal more.
4	4 (4) (18/1 -140%) Miss Calculation	18 18/1(-140%)	(4) Miss Calculation 18/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Catterick in May. Wasn't disgraced when fourth of 13 in minor event at this course (6.1f, 12/1) 7 days ago, nearest finish.

9	9 (9) (66/1 -3411%) Evoluir	66 66/1(-3411%)	(9) Evoluir 66/1, Ran well when second of 10 in handicap at this course (6.1f, 5/2) 7 days ago, nearest finish. This trip looks well worth exploring so he's one to consider. Two improved runs in 6f AW h'caps this summer; 7f should suit but tricky draw to deal with.

Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 25/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Tough to recommend on this year's form.

Having justified strong support in the market when romping home in a handicap at Yarmouth on Wednesday, KODEBREAKER should prove tough to beat on this switch to a classified event. Coconut Bay has acquitted herself with credit in similar contests of late, as evidenced by her recent third at Ayr. Tristan Davidson's mare is feared most, ahead of Evoluir, who is a potential improved upped in distance.

KODEBREAKER was an impressive 7-length winner at Yarmouth last week, so Michael Herrington's 5-y-o is fancied to continue that good work back on all-weather at the expense of Evoluir, who looks well worth a go at this trip judged on his staying-on second at this track over 6f last week. Coconut Bay is holding her form well better than most at this level so she can take third ahead of True Nation.

Evoluir has the widest draw and that is just enough reason to look elsewhere. TRUE NATION (nap) is a viable alternative.

6	6 (6) (Evens +28%) Roi De France	0 Evens(+28%)	(6) Roi De France Evens, Runner-up both starts. Beaten at short odds on his C&D reappearance 3 weeks ago but he was clear of the rest and looks capable of better still for his top stable. Pipped by a stablemate when 2-5 over C&D but the form makes him one of two leading players.
1	1 (1) (4/1 -264%) Amphius	4 4/1(-264%)	(1) Amphius 4/1, Promising sort. Second of 11 in novice at Doncaster (1m, good, 3/1) 45 days ago. A useful prospect. Brings high standard for novice races but he meets one with similar form in Roi De France.
9	9 (9) (10/1 -25%) Raheena	10 10/1(-25%)	(9) Raheena 10/1, Promising type. 13.2, fifth of 12 in C&D maiden (good to firm) 56 days ago. Should have more to offer. Sole 2yo run was much better than reappearance; stiff task against two of today's rivals.
5	5 (5) (33/1 -313%) Northern Ruler	33 33/1(-313%)	(5) Northern Ruler 33/1, 500,000 gns Kingman colt. Dam unraced half-sister to Falmouth Stakes winner Timepiece and Criterium de Saint-Cloud winner Passge of Time from an excellent family. Makes obvious paper appeal but he'll need to be very useful to win this on debut. 500,000gns yearling by Kingman; first foal; dam unraced from a superb Juddmonte family.
3	3 (3) (66/1 -32%) Edwardtheninth	66 66/1(-32%)	(3) Edwardtheninth 66/1, Twice-raced colt. Ninth of 13 in novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 15 days ago. More one for handicaps after this. Always behind after a slow start on both outings, despite a big market move on latest.
2	2 (2) (125/1 -400%) Anhydrous	125 125/1(-400%)	(2) Anhydrous 125/1, Twice-raced gelding. Sixth of 8 in novice at Leicester (1¼m, good to soft, 12/1) 49 days ago. Would be a surprise winner. Weakened right out of it in novice events at Windsor (1m) and Leicester (1m2f).
7	7 (7) (150/1 -355%) Bayadere	150 150/1(-355%)	(7) Bayadere 150/1, Twice-raced filly. 20/1, last of 7 in maiden at Haydock (11.5, firm) 23 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Major work to do, for all that this shorter trip could suit judged on pedigree.
8	8 (8) (250/1 -150%) Drusilla	250 250/1(-150%)	(8) Drusilla 250/1, Twice-raced filly. 150/1, thirteenth of 14 in C&D novice (good to firm) 21 days ago. Booked for another struggle. Big odds when last at Haydock (1m2f, good) and second last over C&D (good to firm).

Roi De France was denied by a short head into second when sent off at odds on to shed his maiden tag over C&D last month and holds an obvious chance. However, he could be playing second fiddle this time around to AMPHIUS. Harry Charlton's three-year-old finished fourth behind Economics on his debut and followed that up with a pleasing second behind Indelible, who has placed in Listed class since. With William Buick back in the saddle, he could prove very hard to beat, while Northern Ruler warrants a market check on his racecourse debut.

This is likely to develop into a straight fight between AMPHIUS and Roi de France, with a narrow preference for the former. Northern Ruler will need to be good to trouble that pair on debut but he does make obvious paper appeal.

This may be a duel between ROI DE FRANCE and Amphius. Northern Ruler is a newcomer to note and Raheena is of some interest.

PIER PRESSURE ran well for Amy Jo Hayes at Naas last time and looks capable of winning again off this kind of mark. The Kingman gelding went for home a furlong-and-a-half out then but was chased down in the closing stages by stablemate Mr King and Barbapapa. That looked a strong enough contest and he is only a pound higher now. Shigar has been knocking on the door and has to be respected having been left on the same mark as when third at Leopardstown last time. Grey Leader is another who was third at Leopardstown last time and also has to come into calculations.

GREY LEADER got back on track when a close third at Leopardstown on Thursday and gets the vote off the same mark. Shigar and Perfect Poise are feared most.

It may pay to forgive PHYSIQUE for a moderate run last time as the form of his previous third at Limerick was franked last week

USTATH made every yard of the running to score by a comfortable four lengths over 6f here last week and, provided the quick turnaround doesn't pose him any problems, he could prove very hard to beat again. Split Elevens accounted for his nearest rival by a neck in a class 6 handicap at Brighton last time and he could get involved, while last-time-out winner Alibi Warning is another to watch out for.

Making his all-weather debut, SCARFO showed much improved form when winning at this C&D a week ago and he is taken to score again now that he's up and running. The 3-y-o is preferred to Ustath, who also arrives on the back of a recent success here, with Split Elevens completing the shortlist.

The one with the most scope here is SCARFO who got off the mark last Monday. Split Elevens is next best.

AW record more convincing than turf, though. Last four wins over 7f; sharp 6f on fast ground perhaps an inadequate test.

Usual tongue tie left off. Capable but inconsistent; did well after slow start latest; not one for the faint of heart.
10	10 (10) (300/1 -1775%) Ormolulu	300 300/1(-1775%)	(10) Ormolulu 300/1, Good sixth of 12 in handicap at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 18/1) 32 days ago given she wasn't seen to best effect. Not without hope. On a winning mark but she needs to step up on this year's form to win.

Tiger Bay has hit the crossbar in this grade the last twice, including over C&D on her penultimate start, and she is likely to be thereabouts once again. The vote, though, goes to MEZZO SOPRANO, who made a very pleasing start to her four-year-old career, despite losing her unbeaten record, when filling the runner-up spot over 7f at Thirsk last month. Simon & Ed Crisford's filly will have no problems with this drop back in trip and she can go one better. Beyond Borders appeals most of the remainder.

MEZZO SOPRANO surrendered her unbeaten record at Thirsk a month ago but it was actually a very promising return to action and with that under her belt, she can quickly regain the wining thread. Havana Pusey was pretty impressive over C&D last time so she's second choice, with Ormolulu one to consider at longer odds.

Mezzo Soprano still has potential but this looks less demanding than some of BEYOND BORDERS' assignments this year.

MOTHER NATURE should prove hard to beat. The Justify filly was edged out by a short-head on her first two starts, including by recent Group 3 winner Grateful at the Curragh early last month. She was far from disgraced in the Naas Oaks Trial last time and should be up to taking a maiden of this standard now. She has a mark of 95 and the obvious danger is the Jessica Harrington-trained Riviera Queen, who is rated 87. This Camelot filly also drops in class having been last behind Oaks winner Ezeliya in the Salsabil Stakes at Navan back in April. Alinta may improve from her debut run, when behind the selection, and could be place material.

Paddy Twomey's ALINTA showed plenty to work on when fourth on her Curragh debut and might be worth chancing to improve past more-established pair Mother Nature and Riviera Queen, who drop back to a maiden after competing at listed/Group 3 level last time.

Despite an underwhelming effort in a stakes race last time, it's hard not to give MOTHER EARTH another chance back in maiden company

NANCY P was successful by just over two lengths over 1m4f at Lingfield last time, shaping as if this step up in trip could eke out improvement. The daughter of Ulysses is 5lb higher for that triumph and she looks the one to beat, with her main threat possibly being Capla Mojo. Gay Kelleway's three-year-old finished second over 1m4f here last time and could have a say up in trip off 1lb higher, while Starshine Legend is another to consider.

ALMUDENA is unexposed as a stayer and drops into a weaker grade than the race she contested at Sandown 10 days ago, so she's preferred to Lingfield winner Nancy P, with Starshine Legend another obvious player with more in the locker if everything clicks.

Preference is for STARSHINE LEGEND who scored on his handicap debut at Catterick last month. Nancy P is next best.

Great Chieftain built on his two promising efforts after being gelded to score at Newbury earlier in the month and he would be foolish to dismiss off a 5lb higher rating. However, WAR CHANT looks the way to go. The son of War Command did remarkably well to finish third at Doncaster last time, as he met plenty of traffic problems at a vital stage in that contest, and he makes plenty of appeal off the same mark. The hat-trick seeking Red Hat Eagle is another to consider.

WAR CHANT's Nottingham win worked out nicely and on the back of another very sound effort at Doncaster, he just about boasts the most compelling claims. Cabinet of Clowns, Red Hat Eagle and Lyndon B are just a trio of potential threats.

Red Hat Eagle, Great Chieftain and Cabinet Of Clowns are shortlisted but the selection goes to WAR CHANT.

ANOTHER NIGHT was the Harrington second-string but attracted market support when fourth at Roscommon in May and her stablemate, sent off a bigger price despite being the mount of Shane Foley, got off the mark at Navan on Saturday. The daughter of Almanzor has had time to mature further and should be suited by the extra furlong of this contest. Sundance Sioux had the benefit of a run in a barrier trial when narrowly beaten over 1m4f at Fairyhouse. He can contend along with Tuba, who steps up in trip from a mile after staying on well for third at Limerick. The latter is bred to appreciate this stiffer test of stamina.

There was plenty to like about SUNDANCE SIOUX's opening Fairyhouse second and he gets a narrow vote ahead of fellow promising once-raced types Tuba and Another Night.

Having shown promise at Roscommon in May, ANOTHER NIGHT has been given time to mature further and the extra furlong here will help

DAYTONA LADY was said to have been unsuited by the undulations of Pontefract a fortnight ago, so that performance can be forgiven. Ruth Carr's charge has proven to be more effective on an artificial surface, so, from a competitive handicap rating, it would come as no surprise were she to bounce back. The consistent Coast should give her running once again, although recent Catterick scorer Dusk Dame has fewer miles on the clock and might be the main threat.

Having scored at Wetherby in June, DAYTONA LADY wasn't seen to best effect at Pontefract last time and, if the race is truly run, she may be able to get back to winning ways. Lady Dreamer is of interest with blinkers back on and fellow class-dropper Jenni isn't without a chance.

Kensington Agent has had the handicapping door opened but GRANNY B can confirm the promise of her 5f run here last time out.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (6/4 +25%) God Of Fire	1.5 6/4(+25%)	(3) God Of Fire 6/4, Two wins from 3 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Kempton (11f, 4/11) 5 days ago, comfortably. Booking of Buick a plus and he's clearly in top form. May well have more to give, so he should have a big shout going for a quickfire hat-trick.
2	2 (2) (4/1 +20%) Fast Steps	4 4/1(+20%)	(2) Fast Steps 4/1, C&D winner. 11/4, won 11-runner handicap at Newbury (10f, good) 11 days ago. Up 5 lb but can remain competitive with Murphy retaining the ride. Having a solid 2024 campaign, notably with his 1m2f win at Newbury 11 days ago.
9	9 (9) (6/1 -20%) Expert Witness	6 6/1(-20%)	(9) Expert Witness 6/1, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap (2/1) at Salisbury (9.9f, good) 29 days ago by 1¼ lengths from God of Fire, running on. Up 5 lb but that rival has advertised the form since. Kicked off this season with three seconds, before a Salisbury win; needs major respect.
5	5 (5) (15/2 +25%) Silver Gunn	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(5) Silver Gunn 15/2, C&D winner. Creditable third of 8 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to firm, 9/2) 20 days ago. Does need things to fall right given free-going nature. Won this race last season; 3lb lower today but all three starts this term were respectable.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +13%) Mr Mistoffelees	14 14/1(+13%)	(7) Mr Mistoffelees 14/1, 15/2 and visored for first time, tenth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 19 days ago. Back up in trip and bounce back called for minus headgear. Headgear off; has a bit more to prove moving back up from 1m.
4	4 (4) (20/1 -43%) Nap Hand	20 20/1(-43%)	(4) Nap Hand 20/1, Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Must improve and stamina for this trip isn't set in stone. Hood removed. Needs markedly better than he showed on turf last two outings; usual hood is off.
13	13 (13) (28/1 -180%) Pink Lily	28 28/1(-180%)	(13) Pink Lily 28/1, Latest win at Goodwood in June. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, good to firm, 11/2) 17 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. A lesser show in hat-trick bid at Newmarket on good to firm; probably needs a career best.
12	12 (12) (66/1 -450%) Tribal Wisdom	66 66/1(-450%)	(12) Tribal Wisdom 66/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in February. 5/1, ½-length second of 4 to Morcar in handicap at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) 23 days ago, no match for winner. Runner-up at 1m2f on two of his last three outings and could be thereabouts again.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -164%) Monteria	66 66/1(-164%)	(11) Monteria 66/1, 40/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, eighth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 19 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Yard going better now. Did well here last term; this season has not gone well; peak efforts on soft or heavy.
10	10 (10) (66/1 -725%) Morcar	66 66/1(-725%)	(10) Morcar 66/1, C&D winner. 2/1, didn't need to improve to win 4-runner handicap at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) 23 days ago by ½ length from Tribal Wisdom. Dominating this field a tougher ask. Both wins in very small fields, including last time out; may find one or two too good.
6	6 (6) (100/1 -400%) New Heights	100 100/1(-400%)	(6) New Heights 100/1, 20/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, good) 31 days ago. Back up in trip and edging back towards last winning mark. Has rather gone the wrong way this term; raced freely when trying 1m2f first two occasions.
8	8 (8) (100/1 -203%) Spirit Of The Bay	100 100/1(-203%)	(8) Spirit Of The Bay 100/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap (100/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 14 days ago. Yet to find her feet for this yard. Below form for new yard in her two runs this season, the latest over C&D.
1	1 (1) (400/1 -1500%) Diamond Ranger	400 400/1(-1500%)	(1) Diamond Ranger 400/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap (50/1) at Kempton (8f) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on eased slightly in class but he has a fair amount to prove. Below form in his three AW starts for new yard this summer; his last turf run was in 2022.

The hat-trick-seeking God Of Fire looks set to throw down another stern challenge from 1lb higher than Wednesday's Kempton triumph, but a wide drawn could be far from ideal and FAST STEPS is preferred. Rod Millman's charge was able to justify strong market support when on target at Newbury last time out, and, under similar conditions, a 5lb rise should be no barrier to further success. Others to note include Morcar and Silver Gunn.

GOD OF FIRE confirmed he's on the up for new connections when going in again at Kempton on Wednesday and up just 1 lb, the hat-trick looks on the cards. Expert Witness saw off the selection when they clashed at Salisbury a month ago so she is a threat, along with Fast Steps.

Having made such a sparkling start for his new connections, GOD OF FIRE (nap) is selected to complete a quickfire hat-trick.

Three of these finished almost in a line in the 1m2f handicap won by Empress Alma at Naas earlier this month and perhaps BILLIE FRECHETTE can fare best in the rematch. Noel Meade's charge kept on from off the pace to be fourth and should be suited by the extra furlong here. A first-time tongue-tie is fitted and Jamie Powell's claim is a positive. Best Law (third) and Dream Ticket (fifth) are closely matched with the selection on that Naas form and both are fitted with new headgear. Highland Bells finished in front of the Naas winner when fourth at Limerick which brings him into the equation, along with T Or Coffey, who has been running well against older rivals.

BEST LAW shaped well when third at Naas recently and gets a narrow vote ahead of last month's Ballinrobe scorer Gregorina from the in-form Ado McGuinness yard. Noel Meade's Billie Frechette completes the shortlist in this finale.

Perhaps BILLIE FRECHETTE (nap), who shaped like this extra furlong would suit at Naas, can emerge best in a rematch with two rivals

Although NOTRE DAME hasn't been at her best on turf recently, the daughter of Kingman is yet to finish outside of the top three on an artificial surface. This is not the deepest of contests in which to bounce back and she's fancied to do so, for all that handicap debutant Northstead Gardens could give the selection plenty to think about. Zelma struggled at Chepstow three weeks ago, but a 4lb ease in the ratings ought to aid her cause.

CROWN'S LADY seemed stretched by 1¼m at Beverley recently and can make it 2-3 in handicaps now back over shorter. Notre Dame did well on AW earlier in the year and is second choice ahead of David Simcock handicap newcomer Northstead Gardens.

Notre Dame won twice earlier this year but CROWN'S LADY may have more to come following her Ripon win.

2	2 (2) (3/1 -20%) Due To Henry	3 3/1(-20%)	(2) Due To Henry 3/1, Stepped up on debut to win Lingfield novice in June. Further progress when close fourth of 7 on handicap debut (4/1) at Yarmouth (10.1f, good) 11 days ago, finishing with running left. Remains with potential. Close at Yarmouth (1m2f) when persistently short of room and seemingly full of running.
6	6 (6) (11/1 -57%) Born A Rebel	11 11/1(-57%)	(6) Born A Rebel 11/1, Improved to make a winning return/handicap bow at Yarmouth. Good efforts in defeat next 2 starts, fourth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 32 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip. Looks competitive on form. May now have reached ceiling at 1m but she shapes as if she's a good candidate for 1m2f.
3	3 (3) (22/1 -267%) Expected Arrival	22 22/1(-267%)	(3) Expected Arrival 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 12 in maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 5/1) 25 days ago. Makes handicap debut. More required. Turf/handicap debut; these are early days and she should still be capable of better.
4	4 (4) (25/1 -317%) Royal Blaze	25 25/1(-317%)	(4) Royal Blaze 25/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, much improved on nursery debut when winning 11-runner event (9/1) at Leicester (7f, good to firm), well on top finish. Off 11 months/gelded. Up in trip. May need this. Won nursery debut at Leicester (7f, good to firm) last August when last seen; more in tank.
7	7 (7) (100/1 -900%) Heckmondwike	100 100/1(-900%)	(7) Heckmondwike 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Modest form at best but looks the type to do better in handicaps. Handicap debut; should do better in due course but others bring far more solid claims.
1	1 (1) (125/1 -4900%) Wootton's Jewel	125 125/1(-4900%)	(1) Wootton's Jewel 125/1, Improved when winning 6-runner handicap (9/2) at this C&D (good to firm) on return 21 days ago, all out.

Stepped up to 1m2f for the first time here on his handicap bow three weeks ago, WOOTTON'S JEWEL found significant improvement to record the narrowest of victories. There should be plenty more to come from Michael Bell's gelding, and he's taken to defy a subsequent 3lb rise. Due To Henry had no luck in running at Yarmouth recently. Connections will be hopeful of a kinder passage on this occasion, though, and the booking of William Buick is a real statement of intent. Expected Arrival heads the remainder.

DUE TO HENRY is progressive and would have gone very close to winning on his handicap bow at Yarmouth had things panned out better for him. He shades the vote over Wootton's Jewel, who took a big step forward when making a winning handicap bow/return over C&D. Born A Rebel is another to consider.

After his luckless run at Yarmouth, DUE TO HENRY is clearly better than that result and could be a good deal better.

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.
