14:10 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 6f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	11 1st (11) (1.1/1 +27%) Petra Celera	1.1 1.1/1(+27%)	(11) Petra Celera 1.1/1, Runner-up at Hamilton on second start and matched that form when third of 5 in novice event at Ayr (6f, good, 5/1) 9 days ago. Failure to keep straight under pressure last time was a shade disconcerting. Clear promise on slow ground in her last two runs and she sets the standard; key player.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/1 +36%) Mini Magna	9 9/1(+36%)	(4) Mini Magna 9/1, Bred for longer trips and merely hinted at ability when fourth of 8 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) on debut 48 days ago. Pulled hard and was a well-held fourth of eight at Chelmsford (6f, AW) on his debut.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/1 -50%) Showhound	9 9/1(-50%)	(7) Showhound 9/1, Foaled February 16. 85,000 gns foal, 5,000 gns yearling, Showcasing gelding. Half-brother to useful 5f winner Great State. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Chil The Kite. Yard's 2-y-os going very well. Has soft-ground winners in his good pedigree and he needs watching in market.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 -43%) Hyrcanian	10 10/1(-43%)	(8) Hyrcanian 10/1, Foaled April 8. €16,000 yearling, Bungle Inthejungle filly. Half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 1m Machito and 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Moonlight Bay, both useful. Lot to like on paper. Yard 22% with juveniles this season and she's an interesting newcomer.
5th	10 5th (10) (18/1 +28%) Lady Of The Garr	18 18/1(+28%)	(10) Lady Of The Garr 18/1, Promise amidst greenness when fourth of 9 in claimer at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on debut 56 days ago, nearest finish. First run for yard after leaving David Loughnane. Should progress. Some ability in a claimer but she needs major improvement upped in trip for new yard.
6th	12 6th (12) (3.33/1 +39%) Smooth Silesie	3.33 3.33/1(+39%)	(12) Smooth Silesie 3.33/1, Runner-up on debut and stepped up slightly in form terms when third of 12 in maiden at this course (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Should be in the mix. Two promising placed efforts over 5f and she's respected on this step up in trip.
7th	9 7th (9) (100/1 -52%) Lady Bouquet	100 100/1(-52%)	(9) Lady Bouquet 100/1, Ninth of 12 in maiden at this course (5f, good to firm, 150/1) 14 days ago. Well held at big prices in her three runs, with a standout RPR of 50.
8th	5 8th (5) (25/1 -39%) Obligatory	25 25/1(-39%)	(5) Obligatory 25/1, Foaled March 31. €13,000 yearling, Dandy Man colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 1¼m Poetic Force and 7f/1m winner Anglo Saxson. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner). Yard 2-93 with 2yos this season and he looks a longer-term prospect.
9th	2 9th (2) (11/1 -69%) Bulldog Drummond	11 11/1(-69%)	(2) Bulldog Drummond 11/1, Foaled March 31. Aclaim gelding. Dam, 5f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 7f Perdika. Noteworthy newcomer for successful stable. Has good pedigree and he needs a close look on debut.
10th	3 10th (3) (100/1 -203%) Buzz Box	100 100/1(-203%)	(3) Buzz Box 100/1, Foaled March 18. 8,000 gns foal, £14,000 yearling, Adaay gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including 5f winner Baytown Kestrel and winner up to 7f Gin Rummy. Dam winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner). Bred to be sharp. Half-brother to seven winners but yard is 0-10 with 2yos in recent years.
11th	1 11th (1) (150/1 -127%) Bargain Basement	150 150/1(-127%)	(1) Bargain Basement 150/1, Seventh of 9 in claimer at Beverley (5f, good to firm, 14/1) 56 days ago. Has struggled in all three runs, with a best RPR of 39.
12th	6 12th (6) (66/1 -65%) Secret Command	66 66/1(-65%)	(6) Secret Command 66/1, Too green to show anything when last of 13 in maiden at Carlisle (5.8f, soft) on debut 37 days ago. Showed very little in a Carlisle maiden last month and has been gelded since.

LTO Selection:

Given she has already handled some cut in the ground, and fared well with the draw, PETRA CELERA has a lot in her favour and her claims are hard to ignore. She arrives on the back of a fine effort when a close third at Ayr and another step forward could see her strike. Smooth Silesie has also shown plenty and is feared most, with Newmarket raider Mini Magna another name to note.

It would come as no surprise were newcomers to come to the fore, with HYRCANIAN, Showhound and Bulldog Drummond preferred in that order before the benefit of market clues. Smooth Silesie is just about the pick of those with experience.

Preference is for PETRA CELERA, who has shown plenty of promise on slow ground in her last two runs and sets the standard.

14:10 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 6f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:30 Bath Maiden (Class 5) 8f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (0.17/1 +70%) Rose Bolt	0.17 0.17/1(+70%)	(4) Rose Bolt 0.17/1, Found only one too good on debut in February. Could only match that form when third of 12 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f). Off 139 days. Tongue strap back on and she sets the standard.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/1 -125%) Ciara Pearl	9 9/1(-125%)	(3) Ciara Pearl 9/1, 20,000 gns yearling, Twilight Son filly. Closely related to 7f winner Edge of Love and half-sister to several winners, including 2-y-o 6f winner Titled Gent and 1½m winner Way of Life. Starts out at a low level and considered.
3	1 3rd (1) (20/1 +20%) Boujee Gold	20 20/1(+20%)	(1) Boujee Gold 20/1, Failed to match debut form when fourth of 7 in maiden (40/1) at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago, though she was considerately handled. Significantly up in trip, which will suit.
4	2 4th (2) (40/1 -264%) Certain Style	40 40/1(-264%)	(2) Certain Style 40/1, Sent off 66/1 but stepped up markedly on debut run when third of 5 in maiden at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 30 days ago.
5th	5 5th (5) (10/1 -25%) Another Dream	10 10/1(-25%)	(5) Another Dream 10/1, 12,000 gns yearling, Oasis Dream filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Yimkin. Dam, 2-y-o 6f winner who stayed 1m, half-sister to very smart 9f winner Olden Times. Newcomer to note.

LTO Selection:

Boujee Gold wasn't disgraced when fourth at Leicester earlier this month and she is one to monitor closely in the betting, while Certain Style has the scope to improve now she has experience of this trip. However, ROSE BOLT has shaped with promise on both her starts to date on the all-weather and another step forward could see her hard to beat on this occasion.

ROSE BOLT was unable to build on her promising debut when third at Southwell in March but she's back from a break switched to turf with a tongue strap back on and this isn't a deep race. Newcomers Ciara Pearl and Another Dream are feared most.

The most obvious answer to this uncompetitive maiden is ROSE BOLT, who was placed twice on the AW in the early part of this year.

14:30 Bath Maiden (Class 5) 8f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:45 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 7f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (3.5/1 +36%) Making Dreams	3.5 3.5/1(+36%)	(8) Making Dreams 3.5/1, Lightly-raced filly. Creditable second of 10 in seller (9/2) at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago, running on late. Return to 7f will help. Runner-up in 2 sellers on last 2 starts; stays 7f; could play a part on first run on soft.
2	9 2nd (9) (14/1 +65%) Buttercross Flyer	14 14/1(+65%)	(9) Buttercross Flyer 14/1, Once-raced filly. Fifth of 7 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm, 16/1) on debut 23 days ago, not ideally placed. Feasible to think she can build on that now. Should improve on her Musselburgh debut effort and is worth considering.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 +60%) Louiescall	10 10/1(+60%)	(5) Louiescall 10/1, Foaled March 28. 20,000 gns foal, £28,000 yearling, Soldier's Call colt. Half-brother to 5f-7f winner Skip The Queue and winner up to 6f My Wild Side. Yard 0-4 with their juveniles so far this term. £28,000 yearling by Soldier's Call; half-brother to two winners abroad; others stronger.
4	11 4th (11) (5/1 -43%) Nelson Rose	5 5/1(-43%)	(11) Nelson Rose 5/1, Thrice-raced filly. 40/1, ran best race to date switched to turf when second of 7 in maiden at Epsom (7f, good) 13 days ago, headed late on. Well in the mix with a repeat if underfoot conditions don't hinder her. Improved form on turf debut when second at Epsom; first run on soft; not ruled out.
5th	6 5th (6) (5.5/1 -22%) Mr Irrelevant	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(6) Mr Irrelevant 5.5/1, Invincible Army gelding who has improved with each start to date, second of 8 in Thirsk novice (6f) 3 weeks ago, headed final 100 yds and keeping on. Not out of things. Best run when runner-up over 6f at Thirsk latest; promises to stay 7f; first run on soft.
6th	10 6th (10) (7/1 +42%) Lady Of Time	7 7/1(+42%)	(10) Lady Of Time 7/1, Time Test filly who has plenty about her physically and showed some ability when midfield in a Doncaster maiden (7f) 3 weeks ago, coming home under hands-and-heels riding. Very much the type to improve but handicaps could be more her bag in due course. Creditable sixth on debut at Doncaster; likely to improve and worth considering..
7th	1 7th (1) (11/1 -38%) Borderline Boss	11 11/1(-38%)	(1) Borderline Boss 11/1, Foaled May 21. Harry Angel colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 6f winner Bielsa and useful winner up to 1¼m God Willing. Dam 7f winner. Betting should provide a useful guide ahead of debut. Harry Angel half-brother to Ayr Gold Cup winner Bielsa; interesting newcomer.
8th	3 8th (3) (5.5/1 -83%) Hadrian's Wall	5.5 5.5/1(-83%)	(3) Hadrian's Wall 5.5/1, Territories colt who showed fair form when second at Wolverhampton (7f) in June. Below that level when third of 10 in maiden at Chepstow (7f) since but not out of things with a repeat of his debut form. Two fair runs so far, including when 3rd at Chepstow (7f) last time; worth considering.
9th	2 9th (2) (40/1 -21%) Due Consideration	40 40/1(-21%)	(2) Due Consideration 40/1, Twice-raced gelding. 22/1, last of 7 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm) 23 days ago, weakening final 1f having raced freely. Low-grade nurseries will be more his bag moving forward. Well beaten both starts, including over 7f most recently; first run on soft ground.
10th	7 10th (7) (80/1 -142%) Too Much Too Young	80 80/1(-142%)	(7) Too Much Too Young 80/1, Foaled April 21. Massaat gelding. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Probably best watched unless market vibes proved particularly positive. Already gelded; nice enough pedigree but likely to improve for the run.
11th	4 11th (4) (11/1 +0%) Likleman	11 11/1(+0%)	(4) Likleman 11/1, Twice-raced colt. 7/1, fourth of 9 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, good) 18 days ago, running green and making little impression. Looks one for later on. Modest form so far, beaten 12l when fourth over 7.5f last time; first run on soft.

LTO Selection:

With the form in the book not looking anything special, BORDERLINE BOSS is presented with a good opportunity to make a big impact on his racecourse debut. The Kevin Ryan-trained youngster is a half-brother to high-class sprinter Bielsa, who has done so well for the same yard over the years. Nelson Rose arguably sets the standard from those with previous experience and, as a potential pace angle, can provide the selection with something to aim at, with Making Dreams and Likleman others to consider.

NELSON ROSE was much improved under a change of tactics when second in an Epsom maiden 13 days ago and she could be worth chancing in the hope underfoot conditions don't catch her out. Hadrian's Wall and Mr Irrelevant head up the dangers, with newcomer Borderline Boss also one to note in the betting for clues.

A chance is taken on LADY OF TIME who showed plenty of promise on her debut and is taken to beat Nelson Rose and Hadrian's Wall.

14:45 Catterick Maiden (Class 5) 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:55 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 12f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (2/1 +33%) Overactive	2 2/1(+33%)	(3) Overactive 2/1, 10/3, good second of 7 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Improving all the time recently so he's firmly in the picture. Lightly raced 3yo who continues to race keenly but brings solid form claims.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/1 +0%) Party Island	7 7/1(+0%)	(1) Party Island 7/1, Arrives below par, only fourth of 6 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to soft) 44 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. A better horse on the AW and recent turf efforts aren't overly persuasive.
3	2 3rd (2) (1.1/1 +0%) Oh So Grand	1.1 1.1/1(+0%)	(2) Oh So Grand 1.1/1, Made it 2-3 with an easy success in 5-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 9 days ago. Saddles a 6 lb penalty for her handicap debut and weighted to go close once more with this longer trip also a plus. Well related and looks progressive after winning an AW novice with plenty in hand.
4	4 4th (4) (6/1 -33%) Gallimimus	6 6/1(-33%)	(4) Gallimimus 6/1, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton in July. 7/2, good second of 11 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, good) 14 days ago. Can go well again. Record of 3-6 in handicaps and was only pipped on the line at Bath latest.

LTO Selection:

Overactive still looks ahead of his mark but may have to settle for a minor role once more as he bumps into a couple of upwardly mobile rivals. Gallimimus was a touch unlucky not to gain his fourth win of the season at Bath two weeks ago and is a big player once more. However, he may struggle to fend off the challenge of OH SO GRAND, who won at a canter at Wolverhampton last week and might have got in lightly on handicap debut.

OH SO GRAND remains ahead of her mark under a 6 lb penalty for her easy Wolverhampton victory so looks the way to go in her hat-trick bid with this longer distance also a positive. Overactive should ensure she doesn't have things all her own way though with Gallimimus also not taken lightly.

The filly OH SO GRAND carries a penalty for winning a non-handicap on the AW but that was very comfortable.

14:55 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 12f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:05 Bath Stakes (Class 6) 8f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (2/1 +56%) Lilandra	2 2/1(+56%)	(3) Lilandra 2/1, Modest mare. C&D winner. Two wins from 41 Flat runs. 10/1, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good) 7 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Arrives in better heart than most of these. Only C&D winner in the field; close fourth here last week; respected at this level.
2	8 2nd (8) (6/1 -71%) Thrave	6 6/1(-71%)	(8) Thrave 6/1, Modest gelding. 4/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Usual visor back on and he's a big player at this level. Sole turf win came in 2017 but holds a fighting chance in this grade.
3	7 3rd (7) (40/1 -60%) The Grey Bandit	40 40/1(-60%)	(7) The Grey Bandit 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Ninth of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 35 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces on for first time. Drop to 0-50 level and first-time headgear are possible sources of improvement.
4	13 4th (13) (22/1 +33%) Stamford Blue	22 22/1(+33%)	(13) Stamford Blue 22/1, Modest colt. 50/1, last of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 14 days ago, badly hampered. Others more persuasive. Inconsistent maiden; drop in class needs to help him.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 +65%) Six Strings	14 14/1(+65%)	(6) Six Strings 14/1, Modest gelding. Seventh of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 40/1) 7 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Has won on turf but it's 22 months since last attempt in this sphere.
6th	10 6th (10) (20/1 -67%) Clandestinely	20 20/1(-67%)	(10) Clandestinely 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in maiden at this C&D (good, 150/1) 14 days ago. Form lacks solidity but she's a possible improver now dropped in class.
7th	14 7th (14) (25/1 -355%) Taswara	25 25/1(-355%)	(14) Taswara 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 18/5, fifth of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, soft) 11 days ago. Blinkers on first time. Open to improvement back down in trip with headgear fitted; shortlisted.
8th	12 8th (12) (12/1 -33%) Regal Glory	12 12/1(-33%)	(12) Regal Glory 12/1, Modest filly. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 14 days ago. Shaped well on latest AW start; return to turf presents a question mark.
9th	9 9th (9) (3/1 +25%) Ceilidh	3 3/1(+25%)	(9) Ceilidh 3/1, Modest gelding. Creditable third of 10 in minor event (4/1) at Brighton (8f, good) 15 days ago. Not yet fully exposed and he ought to go close. Placed in similar event at Brighton last time; possibilities if building on that effort.
10th	4 10th (4) (200/1 -100%) Miss Malou	200 200/1(-100%)	(4) Miss Malou 200/1, Poor filly. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 150/1) 74 days ago. Looking exposed as a poor maiden.
11th	11 11th (11) (12/1 -71%) Dame Laura Knight	12 12/1(-71%)	(11) Dame Laura Knight 12/1, Modest filly. Sixth of 8 in handicap (15/2) at Salisbury (9.9f, soft) 11 days ago. May do better down in trip on quicker ground. Solid effort on sole attempt over a bare 1m; interesting returned to this distance.
12th	2 12th (2) (66/1 -32%) Into The Spotlight	66 66/1(-32%)	(2) Into The Spotlight 66/1, Last of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 66/1) 23 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Combination of tongue-tie and drop in class needs to prompt a turnaround.
13th	5 13th (5) (11/1 +31%) Romantic Memories	11 11/1(+31%)	(5) Romantic Memories 11/1, Seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 25/1). Off 9 months. Inconsistent maiden; best effort last year came over 6f; makes reappearance.
14th	1 14th (1) (150/1 -500%) Amazing Mollie	150 150/1(-500%)	(1) Amazing Mollie 150/1, Poor filly. 125/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving John Mackie. Tongue strap on 1st time. First-time tongue-tie needs to make a difference on stable/seasonal debut.

LTO Selection:

Unlike many of his rivals, THRAVE does have winning form over a mile and this may be a decent opportunity for the eight-year-old to get his head back in front. The selection has struggled to land a blow in handicaps lately and looks a prime candidate to benefit from the nature of this sort of race. Previous C&D winner Lilandra is feared most, despite also being on a long losing run, while the first-time blinkered Taswara completes the shortlist.

Three-year-old CEILIDH has yet to win a race but probably won't get many better opportunities at this level with Connor Planas a positive jockey booking. Thrave is a lot more exposed but can make his presence felt, along with Lilandra.

Some of the 3yos are still fairly unexposed. The suggestion is DAME LAURA KNIGHT, ahead of Taswara.

15:20 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (3/1 +60%) Mutanaaseq	3 3/1(+60%)	(8) Mutanaaseq 3/1, C&D winner in May. Creditable second of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (6f, soft, 11/2) 5 days ago. Return to 7f should suit and he's one of two solid contenders for the stable. C&D winner in May and was a runner-up on soft at Nottingham (6f) last week; respected.
2	10 2nd (10) (8.5/1 -6%) Magical Effect	8.5 8.5/1(-6%)	(10) Magical Effect 8.5/1, C&D winner. Took too long to get going when sixth of 9 over C&D on fast ground a fortnight ago but the likely slower conditions here should suit. On the shortlist. Veteran who is not easy to predict and was well held over C&D latest; down the list.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/1 -57%) Coaxing	11 11/1(-57%)	(3) Coaxing 11/1, Back on the scoresheet at Southwell (7f) in January and narrowly outpointed over the same C&D a month later. Again performed with credit back from a break/returned to turf when third at Redcar (7f) last month. C&D winner who was a creditable third back on turf at Redcar last month; respected.
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 +33%) End Zone	12 12/1(+33%)	(1) End Zone 12/1, Latest win at Hamilton in May. May have just needed his first outing in 7 weeks when eighth of 12 at Ayr (1m, good) 9 days ago. Should be back closer to his best this time. Didn't fire at Ayr last time and he will need a good pace back at this trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (18/1 -100%) New Tycoon	18 18/1(-100%)	(7) New Tycoon 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago, racing keenly in the lead for a long way. Still early days but he does require improvement. 0-7 and his tendency to race freely has held him back; others are preferred.
6th	6 6th (6) (8/1 +27%) Star Sound	8 8/1(+27%)	(6) Star Sound 8/1, Fair maiden. Creditable fifth of 9 in C&D handicap (good to firm) 14 days ago, fading late on having set the pace. 0-7 but she's had some close calls and has run well on soft ground; in the mix.
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 -33%) Obee Jo	6 6/1(-33%)	(4) Obee Jo 6/1, Gained the third C&D win of his career (and second of 2023) when seeing off Liberty Breeze on good to firm a fortnight ago. Failed to repeat that form when fourth of 7 over C&D last week but that was a Class 4 and he's back in a lower grade this time. Considered. Effective on soft and he's won twice over C&D this season; dangerous if he gets the breaks.
8th	11 8th (11) (16/1 +0%) Mr Trevor	16 16/1(+0%)	(11) Mr Trevor 16/1, Three-time winner on AW in 2022 but yet to fire so far this season, sixth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (7f, firm, 12/1) 19 days ago. Needs to get back on track. 3-7 on AW but he's 1-25 on turf and was well held at Haydock last time.
9th	2 9th (2) (33/1 -65%) Woodlands Charm	33 33/1(-65%)	(2) Woodlands Charm 33/1, Course winner and another good run here when second over 6f last month. Not disgraced when seventh of 9 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 34 days ago. First attempt at 7f. Campaigned mostly at 6f and is untried at this trip; others preferred.
10th	9 10th (9) (4/1 +0%) Liberty Breeze	4 4/1(+0%)	(9) Liberty Breeze 4/1, Landed a gamble to notch a third C&D success last month. Good ¾-length second of 9 to Obee Jo back here a fortnight ago. There's unlikely to be much between them on the revised terms. In good form over C&D in last three runs but this return to soft ground is a concern.
11th	12 11th (12) (28/1 -12%) Sharrabang	28 28/1(-12%)	(12) Sharrabang 28/1, Twenty six runs since last win in 2021. Ninth of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Hamilton (6f, good) 6 days ago. Not hard to look elsewhere. Well held in last three runs and is now 0-26 since his last win in May 2021.
5	5 \|DQ\| (5) (11/1 -10%) Langholm	11 11/1(-10%)	(5) Langholm 11/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 18/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (6f, good) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. On a workable mark but doesn't obviously arrive in form. Dual C&D winner but his form has slumped recently and he needs to get back on track.

LTO Selection:

Several old rivals and course specialists face-off again and, while the likes of Obee Jo, Liberty Breeze and Mutanaaseq are all high on the shortlist, the relatively unexposed STAR SOUND is preferred. Kevin Ryan's three-year-old, who has a live chance at the weights due to her age allowance, is 1lb lower than when a creditable fifth over C&D two weeks ago and could represent some value.

A few course specialists clash here. MUTANAASEQ ran well again when second over 6f at Nottingham last week but 7f is more his trip and he can land a second C&D win of the summer. His stablemate Magical Effect was never a threat when behind him over C&D on fast ground earlier in the month but it could be a different story under today's likely slower conditions and he's second choice ahead of Obee Jo and Liberty Breeze.

An open race in which MUTANAASEQ gets the vote ahead of Obee Jo and Coaxing.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (2.5/1 -11%) Dark Company	2.5 2.5/1(-11%)	(2) Dark Company 2.5/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (5/2) at Carlisle (9f, good to soft) 18 days ago, no match for winner. Untrustworthy but capable of going close again if in the mood. 0-17 on turf but recent form is very positive; enters calculations.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +47%) Send In The Clouds	4 4/1(+47%)	(6) Send In The Clouds 4/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Fourth of 7 in minor event at Bath (8f, firm, 15/2) 28 days ago. Up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Some of his 1m efforts suggest this new trip is worth exploring; one to consider.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/1 +7%) Global Style	7 7/1(+7%)	(7) Global Style 7/1, Seventh of 15 in minor event at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm, 28/1) 37 days ago, doing too much too soon. Can give a good account. Second in this race two years ago; 0-25 on turf overall.
4	5 4th (5) (2/1 -60%) Naadyaa	2 2/1(-60%)	(5) Naadyaa 2/1, Is knocking on the door and she posted a good second of 9 in minor event at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to soft, 9/4) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Has to be taken seriously back in handicap company. In-form maiden; good second at Yarmouth last week; possibilities.
5th	3 5th (3) (18/1 -29%) Doonbeg Farmer	18 18/1(-29%)	(3) Doonbeg Farmer 18/1, Untrustworthy individual. 25/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 7 days ago, very slowly away. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. It's two years since his last worthwhile form on turf.
6th	4 6th (4) (22/1 +21%) Creationist	22 22/1(+21%)	(4) Creationist 22/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2019. 33/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 28 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Visored for 1st time. Chance if rediscovering old form. On a long losing spell and his turf record isn't compelling.
7th	8 7th (8) (50/1 -25%) Raphel Jake	50 50/1(-25%)	(8) Raphel Jake 50/1, Last of 11 in minor event (40/1) at this course (7.6f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Risky proposition at present. Holds weak claims on form; upped in trip.
8th	1 8th (1) (10/1 +60%) Aryaah	10 10/1(+60%)	(1) Aryaah 10/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 25/1, last of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good) 20 days ago. More is required if he's to end his losing run. Inconsistent for new stable but is well treated if showing his form.

LTO Selection:

Most of these find winning difficult and the most compelling argument probably comes from DARK COMPANY, who is at least in good form at this level and he gets on well with his rider who takes off a handy 7lb. Naadyaa is the biggest danger based on recent performances and should go well. Creationist in the first-time visor and Aryaah would both be key players if they got back to anything near their best form.

NAADYAA has signalled she's ready to end her losing sequence of late so gets the vote at the chief expense of Global Style, who wasn't seen to best effect when seventh at Windsor last time and is also handily weighted. Dark Company hasn't proved the most trustworthy of individuals but is another well in the mix if on a going day.

Appealing types are thin on the ground. A chance is taken on SEND IN THE CLOUDS, with Dark Company second choice.

1	1 1st (1) (4.5/1 -35%) Delagate This Lord	4.5 4.5/1(-35%)	(1) Delagate This Lord 4.5/1, Four-time C&D winner. First run since leaving Simon Hodgson when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (firm) 47 days ago, dead-heating with More Than Likely. Retains handicap scope. Dead-heated over C&D on last month's seasonal/stable debut; still on a good mark.
2	10 2nd (10) (18/1 -13%) Fossos	18 18/1(-13%)	(10) Fossos 18/1, Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm, 8/1) 30 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Triple 5f winner in 2022 but slow starts have become a serious issue this season.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/1 +38%) Concierge	5 5/1(+38%)	(3) Concierge 5/1, Course winner. Twenty four runs since last win in 2021. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to firm, 11/1) 13 days ago. Needs to cast that effort aside. Without a win since May 2021 but lurks on a tempting mark; not ruled out.
4	2 4th (2) (3.5/1 +0%) First Company	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(2) First Company 3.5/1, One win from 28 Flat runs. Good second of 14 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good) 7 days ago. Expected to be bang there for all he does need things to fall right. Ran well in defeat over C&D a week but has modest strike-rate and is inconsistent.
5th	5 5th (5) (16/1 -60%) Katar	16 16/1(-60%)	(5) Katar 16/1, Back in form when third of 9 in handicap (11/1) at this course (5f, good) 14 days ago. Has plenty of speed and one to consider. Placed on two of three starts for new stable, including a very close second; shortlisted.
6th	11 6th (11) (14/1 +44%) Silver Diva	14 14/1(+44%)	(11) Silver Diva 14/1, Remains a maiden after 26 Flat runs. 25/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Running respectably in recent weeks but remains a maiden after 26 starts.
7th	8 7th (8) (40/1 -60%) De Vegas Kid	40 40/1(-60%)	(8) De Vegas Kid 40/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Sixth of 8 in handicap (28/1) at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Has poor strike-rate in recent years and has not fired since returning from break in June.
8th	6 8th (6) (7.5/1 +46%) More Than Likely	7.5 7.5/1(+46%)	(6) More Than Likely 7.5/1, Three-time C&D winner. 2 wins from 5 runs here this year, including when dead-heating with Delagate This Lord. 9/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good) 7 days ago. Didn't fire from wide draw here last week but is a dual C&D winner this season.
9th	9 9th (9) (14/1 +13%) Glamorous Force	14 14/1(+13%)	(9) Glamorous Force 14/1, Course winner. Respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good, 22/1) 7 days ago, never nearer. Given a chance by the handicapper. Never really looked dangerous when midfield over C&D a week ago.
10th	4 10th (4) (10/1 +0%) Alfred Cove	10 10/1(+0%)	(4) Alfred Cove 10/1, Winner at Brighton in May. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap (8/1) at this C&D (good) 7 days ago, awkward leaving the stalls. Not much went to plan here a week ago but earlier form give him a fighting chance.
7	7 \|RR\| (7) (5/1 -11%) Hagia Sophia	5 5/1(-11%)	(7) Hagia Sophia 5/1, Good second of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft, 5/1) 16 days ago, running on. Another bold bid likely. Kept on well to make frame on last two starts; needs to prove she can handle this track.

LTO Selection:

Recent course and distance winner Delagate This Lord and Hagia Sophia can play strong roles at this level and both command respect. However, FIRST COMPANY shades preference on the back of last week's narrow C&D defeat, where he may well have won were it not for an awkward start. The five-year-old is on a competitive rating and has a live chance of exploiting it on this occasion.

FIRST COMPANY's strike rate will put some off but he's down to a lowly level now and having found only one too good over C&D a week ago, he looks the most persuasive option. Delagate This Lord made a winning start for Robyn Brisland and he retains handicap scope, with Hagia Sophia another to consider.

The pick is DELAGATE THIS LORD, who started off for Robyn Brisland with a C&D dead-heat last month and is still on a good mark.

1	3 1st (3) (2.75/1 +0%) Hope You Can Run	2.75 2.75/1(+0%)	(3) Hope You Can Run 2.75/1, Arrives in very good nick, cheekpieces back on when second of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (12.1f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Weighted to go well nudged up only 1 lb. Consistent type who was runner-up at Newmarket last time and he should go well again.
2	5 2nd (5) (0.83/1 +53%) Feud	0.83 0.83/1(+53%)	(5) Feud 0.83/1, Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (13/8) at Haydock (11.6f, firm) 19 days ago. On the upgrade and still quite lightly raced so he's a player despite taking a 3 lb rise in the weights. Justified favouritism at Haydock last time and he's open to more progress; big player.
3	2 3rd (2) (7.5/1 -88%) Genesius	7.5 7.5/1(-88%)	(2) Genesius 7.5/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Thirsk in June. 2/1, didn't enjoy the best of runs when fifth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 14 days ago. Needs considering back up in trip. Won at Thirsk on latest turf run; things didn't go his way at Kempton last time; respected.
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 +25%) Muzaffar	12 12/1(+25%)	(1) Muzaffar 12/1, Winner at Southwell in February. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap (15/2) at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) 87 days ago. Has something to prove after his break. Has not gone on since his Southwell win and was pulled up last time; others preferred.
5th	4 5th (4) (14/1 -87%) Vallamorey	14 14/1(-87%)	(4) Vallamorey 14/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Doncaster in April. Respectable sixth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Newcastle (12.4f) 25 days ago, not ideally placed. One for the shortlist. Easy win at Doncaster on her return but she's been well below that form in both runs since.
6th	6 6th (6) (18/1 -50%) Dragonball Prince	18 18/1(-50%)	(6) Dragonball Prince 18/1, Is yet to fire this season and only fourth of 6 in handicap (9/1) at Carlisle (11.2f, soft) 37 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time now. 0-8 and has finished down the field in last four starts; cheekpieces now tried.

LTO Selection:

Feud is likely to prove popular amongst punters following his recent Haydock success but, though he merits respect raised 3lb in the handicap, a chance is taken on VALLAMOREY. Chris Fairhurst's mare has been below par recently, but she romped home on her sole soft-ground start and a return to similar conditions might be vital to her chances today. Having hit the woodwork in a 0-90 handicap last time, Hope You Can Run should be involved down in class, while Genesius heads the remainder.

Ralph Beckett's son of Dubawi FEUD remains with few miles on the clock so is fancied to defy a 3 lb rise in the weights and follow up his recent breakthrough Haydock success. Hope You Can Run seems sure to have a say too though on the back of his good Newmarket second, with Genesius also firmly in the picture having not enjoyed the rub of the green when fifth at Kempton last time out.

Top of the list is FEUD (nap), who found improvement with his comfortable win at Haydock and a 3lb rise for that success looks fair.

Longer trip needs to spark improvement. Outpaced over 6f on recent nursery debut; worth a crack at 7f and still unexposed.
7th	2 7th (2) (4.5/1 -29%) Perfect Spring	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(2) Perfect Spring 4.5/1, Promising sort. Sixth of 8 in novice at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 13 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Big player now handicapping back over further for a leading yard. Promise in her three runs so far and this looks more suitable; open to improvement.
8th	8 8th (8) (100/1 -150%) Lady Of Africa	100 100/1(-150%)	(8) Lady Of Africa 100/1, Poor form. Sixth of 9 in nursery at Nottingham (6f, soft) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive. She needs to improve upon her last two performances if she is to feature.
9th	1 9th (1) (4/1 +33%) Time Signature	4 4/1(+33%)	(1) Time Signature 4/1, Modest form. 14/1 and visored first time, seventh of 10 in nursery at Ascot (6f, good) 12 days ago, never nearer. Should stay 7f. No better for a visor on nursery debut but up in trip and down in class today; unexposed.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (5.5/1 -57%) Cherry Hill	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(4) Cherry Hill 5.5/1, In frame in 3 outings over 6f this summer. Bred to be suited by this slightly longer trip now switching to a handicap. One of the more interesting runners. Clear signs of promise over 6f and bred to stay; improvement needed to defy this mark.

LTO Selection:

Cherry Hill has shaped with plenty of promise on all three starts so far and her opening mark of 60 certainly makes her of interest stepping into a nursery for the first time, although stall one is not ideal. Another Gift and Time Signature have both shaped like improvement is imminent and are interesting, especially if the market speaks in their favour. There is a strong suspicion that we have yet to see the best of MISTRESS TEITE, who has shaped on several occasions like she will be better than her current mark. The first-time hood is applied and, with the step up in trip likely to suit, she can get off the mark at the fifth attempt.

PERFECT SPRING rates a potential improver now stepping back up in trip for her nursery debut and is preferred to Alfred, who also appeals as one likely to go on to better things in handicaps. This trip could also suit Cherry Hill and she's next on the list.

Alfred can step up now tackling 7f but PERFECT SPRING is preferred on her nursery debut.

10th	3 10th (3) (50/1 -355%) Boom The Groom	50 50/1(-355%)	(3) Boom The Groom 50/1, 9/2, sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f). Off 163 days. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Old-timer who has poor strike-rate in recent years; not seen since February.

LTO Selection:

I'M MABLE has been in consistent form of late, having won at Brighton on her penultimate start, and she gets the vote having not received much luck in running when fourth over C&D last Wednesday. With conditions to suit, she can master the likes of Therehegoes, who remains feasibly handicapped and was beaten less than a length here on his most recent outing, and The Cola Kid.

THE COLA KID didn't enjoy the rub of the green when a very good C&D third a week ago and can resume winning ways off a 1 lb lower mark now. I'm Mable finished a place behind Grace Harris's 6-y-o that day and is feared most with C&D winner Bluebell Time also in the mix in a competitive handicap.

Placed from a tough draw over C&D a week ago, THE COLA KID (nap) ought to be a tough nut to crack off today's 1lb lower mark.

Good 1m2f run on soft on stable debut; not so good since; well treated but a bit to prove.

LTO Selection:

A winner on two of his last three starts, the in-form SPANISH HUSTLE can shrug off a 5lb penalty and record another success. Jamil, who struck over C&D in May from a 3lb lower mark, appeals as the most likely threat to Jim Goldie's gelding. Valley Of Flowers remains in good form and must hold every chance in the capable hands of Paul Mulrennan.

These slower conditions will suit course specialist JAMIL and he is taken to register another victory here. The in-form pair Spanish Hustle and Valley of Flowers look the obvious dangers.

In a tight handicap JAMIL, who has a fine record here, is taken to reverse last week's C&D form with Valley Of Flowers.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (4/1 +0%) Pressure's On	4 4/1(+0%)	(3) Pressure's On 4/1, Twice-raced maiden. Last of 5 in maiden at Chepstow (6.1f, good to soft, 9/4) 16 days ago. Offered encouragement at this track on debut and too soon to write him off. Latest effort suggests this drop to 5f is worth exploring; possibilities.
1	8 1st (8) (0.73/1 +47%) Tenhotfourcrazy	0.73 0.73/1(+47%)	(8) Tenhotfourcrazy 0.73/1, Twice-raced maiden. 13/8, second of 12 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good to firm) 14 days ago, no match for winner. Will take the beating. Runner-up at Bath and Catterick; leading player at the weights.
2	6 2nd (6) (8.5/1 +47%) Mc Loven	8.5 8.5/1(+47%)	(6) Mc Loven 8.5/1, Once-raced maiden. Eleventh of 14 in maiden at Nottingham (6.1f, good, 9/1) on debut 27 days ago, folding. Should be better for the run, so open to improvement. Shaped better than his debut form suggests; may well improve plenty.
3	11 3rd (11) (7.5/1 -15%) Miss Woo Woo	7.5 7.5/1(-15%)	(11) Miss Woo Woo 7.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Third of 5 in minor event at this C&D (good to firm, 8/1) 25 days ago. Beginning to look exposed. Form of last-time-out C&D effort has been franked; in the mix.
4	5 4th (5) (33/1 +50%) Black Jack Davey	33 33/1(+50%)	(5) Black Jack Davey 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in maiden (50/1) at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Others make more appeal. Looks a handicap prospect.
5th	10 5th (10) (8.5/1 -70%) Koji	8.5 8.5/1(-70%)	(10) Koji 8.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. Sixth of 8 in minor event (3/1) at Ffos Las (5f, good to firm) 31 days ago, slowly away. Blinkers on 1st time. Disappointing last time but it's too soon to write her off; now blinkered.
6th	4 6th (4) (6.5/1 -8%) Battleofbaltimore	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(4) Battleofbaltimore 6.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 7/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, second of 10 in minor event at this course (6f, firm) 14 days ago. Remains with potential. This drop in trip may prompt a bigger figure; half-brother to a 5f winner.
7th	2 7th (2) (40/1 +50%) Edgewater Drive	40 40/1(+50%)	(2) Edgewater Drive 40/1, Once-raced maiden. 50/1 and cheekpieces on, eleventh of 12 in minor event at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) on debut 60 days ago, slowly away. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Always behind at Salisbury two months ago; gelded since.
8th	1 8th (1) (80/1 +0%) Clear Justice	80 80/1(+0%)	(1) Clear Justice 80/1, Once-raced maiden. 28/1, last of 12 in minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm) on debut 13 days ago. Inauspicious debut at Newbury two weeks ago.
9th	7 9th (7) (25/1 +38%) Le Brok Cafe	25 25/1(+38%)	(7) Le Brok Cafe 25/1, Tongue strap on, sixth of 15 in maiden (22/1) at Newbury (6f, firm) on UK debut 49 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. May do better. Needs to take another step forward; cheekpieces added.
10th	9 10th (9) (200/1 -100%) Fillide Melandroni	200 200/1(-100%)	(9) Fillide Melandroni 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, last of 6 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good, 80/1) 26 days ago. Has achieved little.

LTO Selection:

Battleofbaltimore bumped into a progressive rival over 6f here a fortnight ago and he merits consideration along with Koji, who sports blinkers for the first time having failed to build on a promising debut effort. However, preference is for TENHOTFOURCRAZY, who can open her account having struck the woodwork on both career starts. Miss Woo Woo arguably sets the standard with an official rating of 70 and she must also enter calculations.

TENHOTFOURCRAZY stepped up on her debut when runner-up at Catterick and a performance of similar merit should be enough to open her account at the third attempt. Pressure's On is a danger if able to build on his initial outing at the second attempt and MC Loven is worthy of interest if the market speaks in his favour after a low-key debut.

The vote goes to TENHOTFOURCRAZY, who holds solid-looking claims. Miss Woo Woo is second choice.

Plenty more to come for leading connections. Tipperary debut second franked since; should have learned plenty and major player.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/1 +18%) Perfect Judgement	9 9/1(+18%)	(8) Perfect Judgement 9/1, Foaled January 20. €100,000 2-y-o, Inns of Court colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 7f winner Shalailah. Dam 6f winner. 100,000Euros breeze-up buy; yard has some decent 2yos so market support should be noted.
3	3 3rd (3) (8/1 -45%) Branding	8 8/1(-45%)	(3) Branding 8/1, Sales price rose earlier this year. Bred to be sharp and showed plenty when seventh of 8 in minor event at the Curragh (6f, good, 15/2) on debut 49 days ago, doing too much too soon. Can go well. Barrier trial winner too keen on Curragh debut; more expected of here.
4	10 4th (10) (16/1 +36%) Glamorously	16 16/1(+36%)	(10) Glamorously 16/1, Merely matched debut form when fourth of 9 in maiden at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Bellewstown fourth likely needs to improve markedly to feature here.
5th	2 5th (2) (200/1 -100%) Barley Cove	200 200/1(-100%)	(2) Barley Cove 200/1, 22/1, thirteenth of 14 in maiden at Fairyhouse (6f, good) on debut 14 days ago. Never sighted after slow start on recent Fairyhouse debut; probably best watched for now.
6th	7 6th (7) (4/1 +53%) Gloucester	4 4/1(+53%)	(7) Gloucester 4/1, Highly-promising individual. Fourteenth of 18 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 10/3) on debut 26 days ago. Has plenty of scope to improve. Below expectations on debut, drop in trip here could well suit.
7th	9 7th (9) (33/1 -32%) Thatsthebestoneyet	33 33/1(-32%)	(9) Thatsthebestoneyet 33/1, Foaled March 16. €12,000 yearling, Dandy Man gelding. Yard has a Listed-winning 2yo so market likely a good indicator to this debutant's chances.
8th	11 8th (11) (125/1 -89%) Rhasidat	125 125/1(-89%)	(11) Rhasidat 125/1, 25/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at Navan (5f, good to soft) on debut 11 days ago. Didn't count after tardy start on Navan debut 11 days ago; others preferred.
9th	5 9th (5) (150/1 -50%) Dabirsim Flyer	150 150/1(-50%)	(5) Dabirsim Flyer 150/1, Foaled March 30. €10,000 yearling, Dabirsim colt. Half-brother to French 2-y-o 6f winner Rose Gold. Dam unraced half-sister to useful winner up to 1m (stayed 1¼m) Mittens. Newcomer an unlikely type to make an immediate impact.
10th	1 10th (1) (9/1 +59%) Amerigo Vespucci	9 9/1(+59%)	(1) Amerigo Vespucci 9/1, Foaled April 2. €40,000 yearling, £40,000 2-y-o, Invincible Spirit colt. Dam, US winner up to 8.5f (including minor stakes event at 7.5f), half-sister to smart US sprinter Drew's Gold, runner-up in Grade 1 event at 7f. Newcomer for whom market likely best guide.

LTO Selection:

Aidan O'Brien's EDWARDIAN appeals on his second start. Although he was outgunned in second on debut at Tipperary, the winner has since proved good enough to win at Listed level at the same track. Edwardian finished well clear of the remainder and holds a clutch of big-race entries. His stablemate, Carnegie Hall, has finished fourth in both starts at Naas and Down Royal. He also has plenty of eye-catching entries and can get closer here. Newcomer Perfect Judgement made a six-figure sum at the sales and his trainer, Ado McGuinness, has had a couple of juvenile winners this season. Gloucester and Branding should do significantly better on their second starts. Amerigo Vespucci is another newcomer to note.

EDWARDIAN was too green to show his true level starting out at Tipperary in the spring and sure to step up plenty on that, he will take some stopping. Branding cost plenty this year and showed enough at the Curragh to think he can make his presence felt, with Gloucester open to significant progress.

Plenty green when second to a subsequent Listed winner on his debut EDWARDIAN could now take plenty of beating

1	2 1st (2) (2.5/1 +9%) Dirham Emirati	2.5 2.5/1(+9%)	(2) Dirham Emirati 2.5/1, Visored/tongue strap on for 1st time, won 10-runner handicap (9/2) at this course (13f, good) 14 days ago by neck from Urban Forest, responding well. Up 3 lb but not taken lightly with headgear retained. Has turned things around in headgear lately, and won over 1m5f here a fortnight ago.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 -9%) Beggarman	6 6/1(-9%)	(4) Beggarman 6/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good to soft, 5/1) 18 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs considering off an easing mark. Second to well-handicapped rival last month but well beaten since; not one to rely upon.
3	3 3rd (3) (50/1 -100%) Thahab Ifraj	50 50/1(-100%)	(3) Thahab Ifraj 50/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) 19 days ago. Needs to step forward back on the level. Didn't run badly over hurdles this month; unraced on the Flat since January 2020.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 +9%) Geelong	5 5/1(+9%)	(5) Geelong 5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Leicester (11.8f, good) 6 days ago, missing break. Not discounted. Placed off today's mark over 1m4f on Thursday and is worth another go over a staying trip.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/1 -57%) Hidden Pearl	11 11/1(-57%)	(9) Hidden Pearl 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in June. 9/2, creditable 2¼ lengths third of 10 to Dirham Emirati in handicap at this course (13f, good) 14 days ago. In the picture. Holds no secrets from the handicapper but is in good form and has conditions to suit.
6th	1 6th (1) (18/1 +55%) Humaniste	18 18/1(+55%)	(1) Humaniste 18/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2018. Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, eleventh of 16 in handicap (100/1) at Ffos Las (14f, good to soft). Off 10 months and needs to hit the ground running. Has won four points since we last saw him under rules but his claims are not convincing.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/1 +0%) Silver Bubble	9 9/1(+0%)	(6) Silver Bubble 9/1, Back up in trip when very good fourth of 12 in handicap (11/1) at this course (11.6f, good) 7 days ago. Expected to be bang there off an unchanged mark now her stamina is drawn out more. Ran well over 11.6f here last week and could have untapped potential over this new trip.
8th	10 8th (10) (9/1 -80%) Urban Forest	9 9/1(-80%)	(10) Urban Forest 9/1, Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs. Good neck second of 10 to Dirham Emirati in handicap at this course (13f, good, 8/1) 14 days ago. Not ruled out. 0-24 but went down fighting over 1m5f here a fortnight ago; probably in the mix again.
9th	8 9th (8) (7/1 +18%) Cloudy Rose	7 7/1(+18%)	(8) Cloudy Rose 7/1, 3 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton in June. Found her good run of form coming to a halt when seventh of 11 in handicap at Epsom (12f, good, 9/2) 21 days ago. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Didn't fire last time but won three in a row over 1m4f in May/June.
10th	7 10th (7) (8.5/1 +47%) Thunder Flash	8.5 8.5/1(+47%)	(7) Thunder Flash 8.5/1, 18/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good to soft) 18 days ago, better placed than most. One for the shortlist. Yet to hit top gear this season but latest run was a step back in the right direction.

LTO Selection:

DIRHAM EMIRATI narrowly got the better of Urban Forest (second) when scoring here recently and he can uphold that form, despite a 1lb swing at the weights. The slight rise in distance is another plus and it may be that his biggest challenge comes from Geelong, who has placed on two of his last three starts. Beggarman and Cloudy Rose are capable of being in the mix.

A few with chances but the vote goes to SILVER BUBBLE who arrives on the back of a very good fourth here and can take another step forward now upped in distance. Dirham Emirati is feared most on the back of his recent victory here with in-form trio Urban Forest, Beggarman and Thunder Flash also well in the mix.

An interesting option is SILVER BUBBLE, who posted a pretty good effort over 11.6f here a week ago and now tackles a new trip.

Another bold showing seems likely under a penalty. Has won twice over C&D this season, the latest on good to soft last week; not out of it.
2	4 2nd (4) (7.5/1 +17%) Shark Two One	7.5 7.5/1(+17%)	(4) Shark Two One 7.5/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2020. 9/1, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft) 18 days ago. On a long losing run and others make more appeal. Yet to win for this yard, but on a good mark and these conditions suit; place chance.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/1 -8%) Wade's Magic	7 7/1(-8%)	(5) Wade's Magic 7/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Beverley (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago, slowly away. Should give his running again but needs everything to drop right. Goes well on soft ground and a good fourth at Beverley last week; worth considering.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 +25%) John Kirkup	3 3/1(+25%)	(3) John Kirkup 3/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Beverley (5f, heavy) 2 days ago. Faces a quick turnaround but on a fair mark if he can back up latest effort. Well suited by soft ground and has been in good form recently; each-way chance.
5th	8 5th (8) (6.5/1 +35%) Jackmeister Rudi	6.5 6.5/1(+35%)	(8) Jackmeister Rudi 6.5/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fourth of 12 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 5/1) 7 days ago. Not certain to be in the same form. C&D winner off 10lb higher last September; good AW 4th latest; can go well off 2lb lower.
6th	6 6th (6) (6/1 +14%) Spartakos	6 6/1(+14%)	(6) Spartakos 6/1, Course winner. 11/2, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Likely to be on the premises again. Last win was over 7f on soft here last August; plenty of good runs since and a possible.
7th	1 7th (1) (8/1 +20%) Highjacked	8 8/1(+20%)	(1) Highjacked 8/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 15/2, creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 62 days ago. Worthy of respect. Good fourth over C&D back from a break last time; has won on soft; a possible.
8th	10 8th (10) (80/1 -100%) Selby's Joy	80 80/1(-100%)	(10) Selby's Joy 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in handicap (80/1) at this course (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Must improve. Unexposed maiden who needs to improve to take this from out of the handicap.
9th	7 9th (7) (16/1 -14%) Ginato	16 16/1(-14%)	(7) Ginato 16/1, C&D winner. Two wins from 45 Flat runs. Twenty four runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap (9/2) at this course (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Not completely ruled out. Last win was over C&D in 2021; not been at his best recently and others appeal more.

LTO Selection:

QUERCUS recorded a fourth course and distance success when winning here a week ago and Ann Duffield's charge appeals as the one to beat under a penalty. It would be no surprise were John Kirkup to play a leading role following a series of good runs in defeat, while others to note include Wade's Magic and Ginato, who is now 13lb lower than when last winning.

QUERCUS is in good order and showed a fine attitude when scoring over C&D a week ago, so he should prove hard to pass if he grabs the early lead again. Wade's Magic could get involved if the leaders go too quick and John Kirkup is a player if a quick turnaround doesn't find him out.

C&D winner JACKMEISTER RUDI ran as though returning to form when fourth last week and is just preferred to the penalised Quercus.

4	7 4th (7) (22/1 -100%) Sparkling Spirit	22 22/1(-100%)	(7) Sparkling Spirit 22/1, Fair form. Ran creditably when third on C&D handicap debut last week but Starproof was 4¾ lengths ahead of her and she'll do well to turn the tables.
5th	5 5th (5) (28/1 -211%) Tephi	28 28/1(-211%)	(5) Tephi 28/1, Fair form when runner-up 5 times at 2. Off 7 months, well below form on 5f Windsor reappearance 24 days ago. Now has blinkers refitted and a tongue strap on for the first time as she bids to get back on track.
6th	8 6th (8) (80/1 -21%) Don't Fight It	80 80/1(-21%)	(8) Don't Fight It 80/1, Dual 5f winner at 2 yrs for Keith Dalgleish but well held all 3 outings for current yard.
7th	6 7th (6) (0.73/1 +20%) Starproof	0.73 0.73/1(+20%)	(6) Starproof 0.73/1, Career best when easily winning 9-runner C&D handicap (good) 8 days ago, proving well suited by the drop back to sprinting. A 6 lb penalty is unlikely to stop her if in similar form.
8th	2 8th (2) (9/1 +10%) Anificas Beauty	9 9/1(+10%)	(2) Anificas Beauty 9/1, Two Chelmsford wins to start 2023. Second there in May but her run of good form came to a halt when last of 10 at Chelmsford 7 weeks ago. Needs to bounce back and prove she's as effective on turf.

LTO Selection:

The handicapper hasn't been able to be too harsh on MISS MAI TAI, who arrives having notched up a brace of narrow victories. She's only 1lb higher for the latest of those and the Prince Of Lir filly can continue to progress. Starproof appeals as a likely candidate having bolted up over C&D eight days ago, while the class-dropping Cashew could also have a say in these calmer waters.

If STARPROOF is in the same form as when winning here last week she'll be very hard to beat again. The hat-trick seeking Miss Mai Tai can give her most to do ahead of Tallulah Myla.

Tallulah Myla is respected but STARPROOF (nap) looked well ahead of the handicapper here last week and can make light of a penalty.

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (11/1 -69%) Tiger Belle	11 11/1(-69%)	(7) Tiger Belle 11/1, Winner at Cork on debut in May. 1¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Son of Corballis in listed race (15/2) at Tipperary (5f, good) 21 days ago and that is just about the best form on offer. Solid form claims at this trip but possibly vulnerable to improvers.
2	6 2nd (6) (3.33/1 -67%) Storm Miami	3.33 3.33/1(-67%)	(6) Storm Miami 3.33/1, Looked a good prospect when overcoming inexperience to land 12-runner maiden at this C&D (good, 11/4) on debut 18 days ago. More to come and a must for the shortlist. Got up on the post on C&D debut; will appreciate a strongly-run race.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +56%) Indispensable	4 4/1(+56%)	(5) Indispensable 4/1, Put experience to good use when winning at Ripon in June. 16/1, below form 12 lengths fourth of 9 to Star of Mystery in listed race at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 25 days ago, proving to be too free. Better expected back over 5f. Drop back to 5f should suit but has raced only on a sound surface so far.
4	3 4th (3) (1.75/1 +13%) Cherry Blossom	1.75 1.75/1(+13%)	(3) Cherry Blossom 1.75/1, Foaled March 24. €360,000 yearling, No Nay Never filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 6f-1m winner Lawmaking and 7f/1m winner Miquelon, both useful. Pitched in deep on debut but represents leading yard. Debutante doesn't hold big-race entries but Ryan Moore's selected so has to be respected.
5th	8 5th (8) (8/1 +50%) Vanity Pays	8 8/1(+50%)	(8) Vanity Pays 8/1, Runner-up both starts, 4/6 when second of 9 in maiden at this course (5.9f, heavy), no match for winner. Off 93 days and she's in excellent hands. Outstayed here over 6f after forcing much of the pace; back in trip now.
6th	2 6th (2) (12/1 -71%) Brighter	12 12/1(-71%)	(2) Brighter 12/1, Won 6-runner maiden at Dundalk (5f, 13/8) on debut by head from Vanity Pays. Off 106 days and open to progress for top yard. Just beat Vanity Pays on Dundalk debut; looks the type to progress.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 +43%) Bated Moon	16 16/1(+43%)	(1) Bated Moon 16/1, Debut winner in May. 14½ lengths twenty first of 26 to Crimson Advocate in Queen Mary Stakes (66/1) at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Back on softer ground here and cheekpieces fitted but fair bit of improvement needed.

LTO Selection:

The forecast cut in the ground makes this a conundrum for punters. It isn't usually a negative for No Nay Never's progeny, so CHERRY BLOSSOM could make a winning debut. It is reasonable to assume Aidan O'Brien's filly is showing up well on the gallops as she starts off in Listed company. Ryan Moore is on board and she holds a Group 2 entry for next month. Storm Miami enjoyed fast ground when winning on debut over C&D and could have a major say if handling this slower ground. Cherry Blossom's stablemate, Brighter, should improve markedly from her debut win on the Polytrack in Dundalk. The Ten Sovereigns filly battled home by a head in that fillies' maiden in April and has a plethora of big-race entries. Vanity Pays has finished runner-up on both starts and was just pipped by Brighter in Dundalk, while British raider Indispensable has to be respected, although the ground is an unknown.

STORM MIAMI clearly possesses more than her share of ability given she overcame obvious greenness to make a winning debut over C&D a fortnight ago. With the promise of plenty more to come she's marginally preferred in favour of Tiger Belle and Brighter.

An interesting race in which there should be plenty of pace on which should suit recent C&D winner STORM MIAMI

1	3 1st (3) (2.75/1 +39%) Bailar Contigo	2.75 2.75/1(+39%)	(3) Bailar Contigo 2.75/1, Career best when winning 9-runner classified event at Yarmouth (1¼m, good to soft) a week ago. Respected under a 6 lb penalty. Clearcut winner of recent Yarmouth classified; likely contender under penalty.
2	8 2nd (8) (5.5/1 +8%) Billaki Mou	5.5 5.5/1(+8%)	(8) Billaki Mou 5.5/1, Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Looks competitive on form. Consistent over 1m lately but tendency to race too freely is a worry over this new trip.
3	1 3rd (1) (2.5/1 +25%) Angel Of Peace	2.5 2.5/1(+25%)	(1) Angel Of Peace 2.5/1, 7/2 and cheekpieces on first time, good second of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (1¼m, good) 14 days ago. Player if in the same form. Ran big race in defeat in first-time cheekpieces a fortnight ago; high on the list.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 -144%) Flammable	11 11/1(-144%)	(7) Flammable 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Beaten 12 lengths when third of 8 on her handicap debut at Salisbury (1¼m, soft) 11 days ago. Very early days but she needs to step up on that now. Placed on recent handicap debut and open to improvement back on better ground.
5th	13 5th (13) (12/1 +0%) Queen Of Steel	12 12/1(+0%)	(13) Queen Of Steel 12/1, 9/2, respectable sixth of 10 in classified event at Chepstow (1½m, good to soft) 16 days ago. Hood on first time now dropping back in trip. Placed twice on fast ground this season but others here have more pressing claims.
6th	12 6th (12) (50/1 -127%) Alodia	50 50/1(-127%)	(12) Alodia 50/1, Poor form. 40/1, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f). Off 120 days. Makes turf debut. Unplaced all 11 starts and needs to take a good step forward.
7th	2 7th (2) (28/1 -27%) Postergal	28 28/1(-27%)	(2) Postergal 28/1, Modest form. Well-held fourth of 5 in C&D maiden (good to firm, 33/1) 21 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Well held when fourth in recent C&D maiden but might get more competitive in this handicap.
8th	9 8th (9) (20/1 -82%) The Craftymaster	20 20/1(-82%)	(9) The Craftymaster 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 12 in maiden at Windsor (1¼m, good to firm) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Makes handicap debut. Showed only glimmers of promise in his three qualifying runs; cheekpieces added today.
9th	10 9th (10) (28/1 -75%) Texas Boy	28 28/1(-75%)	(10) Texas Boy 28/1, 10/1 and blinkered for first time, first run since leaving Rebecca Menzies when respectable fourth (Flammable narrowly ahead in third) of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (1¼m, soft) 11 days ago. Closely matched with Flammable on recent Salisbury form but overall record not persuasive.
10th	11 10th (11) (22/1 +33%) Two Plus Two	22 22/1(+33%)	(11) Two Plus Two 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1 and blinkered for first time, fifth of 8 in handicap at Chepstow (1¼m, good to firm) 30 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Unexposed after only five runs but unable to land a telling blow in first two handicaps.
11th	5 11th (5) (11/1 +39%) Timewaitsfornobody	11 11/1(+39%)	(5) Timewaitsfornobody 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, first run since leaving Eve Johnson Houghton when last of 9 in handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 26 days ago, weakening after pulling hard. It remains to be seen whether this longer trip is what's required. Last of nine when 50-1 for seasonal/handicap/stable debut at Doncaster (1m) last month.
12th	6 12th (6) (66/1 -200%) James Bradley	66 66/1(-200%)	(6) James Bradley 66/1, Winner at Chelmsford in January. Last of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) when last seen in March. Tackles turf for the first time after 137 days off. Not seen since poor AW run in March; has a bit to prove on this turf debut.
13th	4 13th (4) (8.5/1 +47%) Atwixaday	8.5 8.5/1(+47%)	(4) Atwixaday 8.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (1½m, AW) 34 days ago. Visor on first time. Something to find on form. Safely held in first two handicaps; back in trip with visor added today.

LTO Selection:

This can go the way of ANGEL OF PEACE, who arguably produced a career-best effort when runner-up at Yarmouth earlier in the month. Ed Walker's charge remains on a workable mark and she may have too much for Flammable, who is entitled to step forward from her handicap debut when third at Salisbury recently, and the consistent Billaki Mou. Others to note include Bailar Contigo and Queen Of Steel.

ANGEL OF PEACE pulled out a little more for cheekpieces last time and may be able to get off the mark if showing up here in similar form. Bailar Contigo came good in a classified event at Yarmouth last week and is second choice ahead of George Baker's Billaki Mou.

Well-bred filly FLAMMABLE may not have been ideally suited by the soft ground on her handicap debut and still has potential.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (4.5/1 +0%) Proud Fairy	4.5 4.5/1(+0%)	(1) Proud Fairy 4.5/1, Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 9/1) 28 days ago. Not dismissed. Last season's form gives her claims and she should be sharper for a recent run; contender.
2	8 2nd (8) (3/1 -50%) Deacs Delight	3 3/1(-50%)	(8) Deacs Delight 3/1, Winner here in June. Creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (7/2) at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 6 days ago, badly hampered. Would have been a close third at least with a clear run last time and makes plenty of appeal back at this track. C&D winner last month and two solid efforts in defeat since; each-way claims again.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 -25%) Optiva Star	5 5/1(-25%)	(6) Optiva Star 5/1, Hooded for 1st time, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Epsom (7f, good to firm, 9/1) 6 days ago, slowly away. Should give another good account. Fared a bit better dropped into a Class 6 last week and he now has something to build on.
4	10 4th (10) (16/1 +11%) Arlo's Sunshine	16 16/1(+11%)	(10) Arlo's Sunshine 16/1, Latest win at Yarmouth in April. 17/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good) 26 days ago. First run for yard after leaving P. Charalambous & J. Clutterbuck. 1m winner on soft in April; quiet the last twice; sold 3,000gns this month; others safer.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 +0%) Blue Collar Lad	12 12/1(+0%)	(3) Blue Collar Lad 12/1, Course winner. Latest win here in June. 10/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. 7f winner here last month (in headgear); poor without headgear latest but it's back today.
6th	2 6th (2) (3.33/1 +49%) Major Gatsby	3.33 3.33/1(+49%)	(2) Major Gatsby 3.33/1, Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, good to firm, 5/1) 25 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Becoming well treated and looks ready to strike. Four wins last year and he's been threatening this time around; one to consider.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 +0%) Sassy Redhead	14 14/1(+0%)	(9) Sassy Redhead 14/1, Latest win here in February. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (5.2f, good, 22/1) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Uphill task. Two 6f AW wins over the winter; not at her best this summer; stepped up in trip today.
8th	5 8th (5) (50/1 -150%) Swiss Rowe	50 50/1(-150%)	(5) Swiss Rowe 50/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Kempton in March. Eleventh of 13 in handicap (18/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW). Off 91 days. Makes turf debut. Blinkers on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Two 7f AW wins; turf debut; good draw if the change of headgear works the oracle.
9th	12 9th (12) (7.5/1 +25%) The Game Is Up	7.5 7.5/1(+25%)	(12) The Game Is Up 7.5/1, Very good third of 8 in handicap (10/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Needs to back that up. Best effort to date when 3rd of 8 at Windsor this month (1m); still time to do better.
10th	11 10th (11) (80/1 -100%) Grey Rosetta	80 80/1(-100%)	(11) Grey Rosetta 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 300/1, last of 6 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 99 days. Makes handicap debut. Hard to fancy. Modest form in novice/maidens in the spring; this more suitable but much more is required.

LTO Selection:

PROUD FAIRY made a pleasing return to action for the Gary Moore team last month, when beaten four lengths into fifth at Kempton. The unexposed daughter of Garswood was subsequently eased 2lb in the ratings, and the drop in class further aids her cause. Deacs Delight continued his decent spell of form with a creditable fifth at Chepstow six days ago and is likely to make his presence felt. Blue Collar Lad is also noted.

MAJOR GATSBY is well handicapped now and gave a clear indication that he's ready to capitalise when fourth (closer to the early pace than ideal) at this course last time, so he gets the nod over the in-form Deacs Delight, who was hampered late at Chepstow recently. Proud Fairy is also considered.

Deacs Delight remains in good form but PROUD FAIRY may be able to build on last month's return to action.

Info	Form	Odds
16	16 (16) (80/1 -100%) Tooprofitable	80 80/1(-100%)	(16) Tooprofitable 80/1, Last of 9 in handicap at Limerick (7f, good, 25/1) 32 days ago. Yet to offer much for current yard. Handicapper giving her a chance and ground in her favour.
1	7 1st (7) (14/1 +0%) Tai Sing Yeh	14 14/1(+0%)	(7) Tai Sing Yeh 14/1, Kept busy this year and returned to form when second of 15 in handicap at Navan (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and warrants respect. Holding his form well and recent Navan second on soft augurs well.
2	5 2nd (5) (20/1 -82%) Collective Power	20 20/1(-82%)	(5) Collective Power 20/1, Latest win at Navan in June. 4/1, last of 5 in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 20 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Claims on best form. Withdrawn due to soft ground at Navan recently so unlikely to have his conditions here.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/1 -10%) Wave Machine	11 11/1(-10%)	(2) Wave Machine 11/1, C&D winner. 3½ lengths fourth of 5 to Little Queenie in handicap at this C&D (good, 17/2) 18 days ago. Stable having good spell. Others preferred. Birdcatcher winner over C&D last autumn; career-low mark and soft ground to suit.
4	13 4th (13) (6.5/1 +7%) Sounds Of Spring	6.5 6.5/1(+7%)	(13) Sounds Of Spring 6.5/1, 9/2, last of 10 in handicap at Cork (5f, heavy). Off 109 days. Wouldn't be without a chance if he were to put his best foot forward. Down to a nice mark with conditions to suit and okay draw so definite contender.
5th	1 5th (1) (16/1 +20%) Hallowed Time	16 16/1(+20%)	(1) Hallowed Time 16/1, 14/1, last of 10 in handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. Drop in trip and soft ground to suit, draw may not.
6th	8 6th (8) (6.5/1 -8%) The Snapper	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(8) The Snapper 6.5/1, Career best when winning 17-runner handicap at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 9/2) 11 days ago. 8 lb higher now but is one for the shortlist. Loves soft/heavy although 8lb rise for recent Navan win seems plenty.
7th	4 7th (4) (4.5/1 +55%) Transcendental	4.5 4.5/1(+55%)	(4) Transcendental 4.5/1, Winner at the Curragh in May. 17/2, tenth of 11 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Not out of things. Too keen latest so now hooded; ground no problem.
8th	3 8th (3) (5.5/1 +66%) Yermanthere	5.5 5.5/1(+66%)	(3) Yermanthere 5.5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f, 12/1). Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Patrick T. Foley. Fairly treated on return. Absent since October and may need this on first start for new yard.
9th	17 9th (17) (12/1 +57%) Lalechko	12 12/1(+57%)	(17) Lalechko 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below form eighth of 13 in maiden (18/1) at this C&D (heavy). Off 8 months. Work to do on handicap debut. Chance of sorts on his best maiden form but lack of a recent run a big concern.
10th	9 10th (9) (16/1 -60%) Coolcalmncollected	16 16/1(-60%)	(9) Coolcalmncollected 16/1, Bit below form fifth of 15 in handicap (40/1) at Navan (5f, good to soft) 11 days ago, not ideally placed. Others more persusive. Encouraging recent Navan comeback run; more expected of here.
11th	10 11th (10) (8/1 -14%) Livingston Range	8 8/1(-14%)	(10) Livingston Range 8/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 11/1 and blinkered for 1st time, improved on recent efforts to win 19-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 18 days ago. 9 lb higher now and remains to be seen if in same form. Up 9lb for recent C&D win so tough-looking task here.
12th	15 12th (15) (50/1 -25%) Play It Again Zaam	50 50/1(-25%)	(15) Play It Again Zaam 50/1, 66/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, tenth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good) 13 days ago. Down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Cheekpieces had no effect last time; marked drop in trip here but hard to fancy.
13th	12 13th (12) (7.5/1 -50%) Adnaan	7.5 7.5/1(-50%)	(12) Adnaan 7.5/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap at Down Royal (5f, good, 10/1) 33 days ago, not clear run. Likely capable of better. Interrupted campaign for current yard and yet to convince on this sort of ground.
14th	14 14th (14) (100/1 -52%) Field Of Honour	100 100/1(-52%)	(14) Field Of Honour 100/1, Last of 11 in claimer (66/1) at Killarney (8.2f, good) 7 days ago. Down in trip. Trainer going well. Difficult ask. Nothing yet for current yard; winning form is on fast ground.
15th	11 15th (11) (20/1 +29%) Lovejoy	20 20/1(+29%)	(11) Lovejoy 20/1, 11/1, 17¼ lengths thirteenth of 15 to Transcendental in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good) 59 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Probably not an ideal draw here but trip/ground to suit.

LTO Selection:

SOUNDS OF SPRING holds an each-way chance on his return to action. He disappointed in a higher grade at Cork in April and should be refreshed after more than three months off. He is down to an appealing mark and will enjoy any cut in the ground. Furthermore, he has run well off a break before. Lovejoy has more upside than most especially on rain-softened ground. Her runner-up berth in a good fillies' handicap at the Curragh in May was a notable effort. Mudlark The Snapper would welcome as much rain as possible. He sluiced home at Navan and has prospects of defying an 8lb rise in the weights. Tai Sing Yeh is capable of banking another cheque and Wave Machine isn't out of contention at a price. Little Queenie and Livingston Range should bring plenty of pace to this race.

Navan winner THE SNAPPER is relatively unexposed over sprint trips and may be able to follow up. Litttle Queenie and Tai Sing Yeh head the list of dangers.

Very open and a chance is taken on COOLCALMANDCOLLECTED improving on an eyecatching recent comeback run at Navan

10	10 (10) (20/1 +20%) Ocean Reach	20 20/1(+20%)	(10) Ocean Reach 20/1, One win from 34 Flat runs. Well-held fifth of 7 in handicap (11/2) at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) 16 days ago. Back down in trip. Not easy to make a case for. Hasn't shown enough off basement marks this year to suggest she's the answer here.
1	2 1st (2) (3.5/1 +0%) Blue Hero	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(2) Blue Hero 3.5/1, SIx-time course winner, including 3 this summer, the latest over 1¼m (good, 6/1) 14 days ago, quickening to lead in the final strides under a confident Finley Marsh. Has won over this trip and another bold bid is on the cards. Triple course winner this season and still well handicapped on some of last year's form.
2	6 2nd (6) (5.5/1 +35%) Nevendon	5.5 5.5/1(+35%)	(6) Nevendon 5.5/1, 18/1, respectable third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (17f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Shaped better than the result when fourth on the Flat at Brighton prior to that. Won selling hurdle in May and last month's Flat run was respectable; each-way claims.
3	9 3rd (9) (12/1 +25%) Susanbequick	12 12/1(+25%)	(9) Susanbequick 12/1, 12/1, good 1½ lengths fifth of 12 to Uther Pendragon over C&D (good) 7 days ago. More needed for win purposes, though. Pretty consistent off lowly marks here in recent weeks; could have a say.
4	4 4th (4) (50/1 -52%) Largo Bay	50 50/1(-52%)	(4) Largo Bay 50/1, Four wins in a productive 2022 but has yet to fire this year, finishing a well-held last of 5 at Brighton last month. Ran okay in May, after a break, but well beaten since; has more to prove than some.
5th	1 5th (1) (2.25/1 -13%) Gearing's Point	2.25 2.25/1(-13%)	(1) Gearing's Point 2.25/1, Made it 4-6 for this yard when seeing off 8 rivals in a C&D handicap (good to firm, 4/5) 21 days ago. A further 3 lb nudge may not prevent her going in again. 4-6 for new stable this season, with the latest win gained over C&D; commands respect.
6th	7 6th (7) (9/1 +44%) Uther Pendragon	9 9/1(+44%)	(7) Uther Pendragon 9/1, Won 12-runner C&D handicap (good) a weeks ago. Should be very competitive under a 4 lb penalty if showing up in similar form. C&D winner off reduced mark a week ago; no surprise if he goes well again under penalty.
7th	8 7th (8) (5.5/1 +66%) Princess T	5.5 5.5/1(+66%)	(8) Princess T 5.5/1, Didn't need to be at best when winning a 4-runner hurdle on Jersey 19 days ago. Respectable third on the Flat here prior to that. Ran quite well when third of six here (1m2f) in June but others appeal more all the same.
8th	11 8th (11) (200/1 -150%) Topofthetrifle	200 200/1(-150%)	(11) Topofthetrifle 200/1, No worthwhile form. 150/1, last of 10 in handicap at this course (13f, good) 14 days ago. Yet to show any worthwhile form after seven runs; can't be recommended.
9th	3 9th (3) (8.5/1 -55%) Shadowfax	8.5 8.5/1(-55%)	(3) Shadowfax 8.5/1, Fair maiden. Off 6 months, strong in the betting but faded to finish fourth of 6 over 1¾m at Nottingham (good to firm) 27 days ago. Visored and dropped in trip now. It'll be interesting to see whether his supporters' return. Seven-race maiden who has become rather disappointing; back in trip with visor on.

LTO Selection:

A determined winner over C&D last time out, GEARING'S POINT is in the form of her life at present and the four-timer looks like a distinct possibility for Sheena West's charge. The five-year-old goes really well at this trip and her proven stamina can come in handy against course specialist Blue Hero, who has done all of winning over shorter this season. Princess T cannot be ruled out either following her third here last month.

A further 3 lb rise may not prevent the thriving GEARING'S POINT from going in yet again. Course specialist Blue Hero is another who is very much in the winning habit at present and is second choice ahead of Charlie Arthur, who ran quite well at Newbury last time and has dipped below the mark he defied on turf last summer.

Topweight GEARING'S POINT might still be improving and is selected to record her fifth win since her stable debut in May.

4	6 4th (6) (12/1 +0%) Olympicus	12 12/1(+0%)	(6) Olympicus 12/1, Fair ex-Irish maiden. Hood on for 1st time when good fifth of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 26 days ago on just his second run for his new yard. Considered stepping up in trip. 1m2f is plausible; settling remains an issue and a good pace up front may well be required.
5th	3 5th (3) (4.5/1 -35%) Night Eagle	4.5 4.5/1(-35%)	(3) Night Eagle 4.5/1, Got off the mark for the season in good style in 7-runner handicap at Epsom (12f, good to firm) 6 days ago.

6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 +0%) Sea Of Charm	18 18/1(+0%)	(8) Sea Of Charm 18/1, It's now fourteen runs since his last win in 2021 but she wasn't disgraced when fourth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and in the mix. Two minor honours for new trainer; cheekpieces (tried once in 2021, finished last) return.
7th	12 7th (12) (11/1 +8%) Lawn Ranger	11 11/1(+8%)	(12) Lawn Ranger 11/1, Scored at Windsor in April and has remained in good order, ridden too aggressively when sixth of 12 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 13 days ago. One for the shortlist. Front-runner; enhanced his good Windsor record; well below form at Sandown (latest 2021).
8th	7 8th (7) (5/1 -11%) Nonsuch Lad	5 5/1(-11%)	(7) Nonsuch Lad 5/1, C&D winner who posted a respectable third of 7 in handicap at Epsom (10.1f, good) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Enters calculations off the same mark. Won twice (once here) over 1m2f last term; solid efforts on his last three starts.
9th	2 9th (2) (12/1 +25%) Glen Again	12 12/1(+25%)	(2) Glen Again 12/1, Dual winner in 2021 for Mark Johnston but missed whole of last year and below par in three runs for new connections this term.

10th	4 10th (4) (7.5/1 +17%) Beautiful Crown	7.5 7.5/1(+17%)	(4) Beautiful Crown 7.5/1, Sixteen runs since his last win in 2021 but he posted a creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 50 days ago. Merits consideration eased 1 lb. Back to 1m2f (latest start was one of his 1m4f races) and not totally dismissed.
11th	11 11th (11) (18/1 -64%) Come On John	18 18/1(-64%)	(11) Come On John 18/1, Scored at Wolverhampton and Brighton in May and not discredited when fourth of 6 back at Brighton (9.9f, good) 29 days ago. Can give another good account eased 1 lb. Below form latest start; big shout if reverting to peak 2023 form, which includes two wins.
12th	10 12th (10) (12/1 -50%) Sarkha	12 12/1(-50%)	(10) Sarkha 12/1, Winner at Lingfield in May and in good nick since, visored when fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 37 days ago. Cheekpieces back on now and needs considering. Chief disincentive is that he showed so little at Yarmouth (good) in his only turf race.
13th	15 13th (15) (80/1 -21%) He's Our Star	80 80/1(-21%)	(15) He's Our Star 80/1, In good form on the AW in the winter but he came in last of 14 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, soft) in April. Needs to hit the ground running after 110 days off. 7f 2nds this year; record at this trip is far from convincing, including tailed off latest.
14th	1 14th (1) (25/1 -213%) The Conqueror	25 25/1(-213%)	(1) The Conqueror 25/1, Yet to get his head in front on these shores and while he didn't shape badly on return/debut for new yard on the AW in April, his subsequent efforts have not been particularly encouraging. Others appeal more. Ex-German; 9lb lower than on British debut four starts ago, so needs a second look.

LTO Selection:

A winner over C&D last September, this looks like a good opportunity for NONSUCH LAD to regain the winning thread after some highly-creditable efforts in defeat of late. The four-year-old should have too much for Mrembo and Beautiful Crown, who is looking to end a losing sequence dating back to August 2021. Sarkha and Sea Of Charm are also capable of being in the shake-up.

A case can be made for lots of these but the most persuasive one is for NIGHT EAGLE who ran out a stylish winner at Epsom and rates the pick of these weights turned out under a 5 lb penalty. C&D scorer Nonsuch Lad heads the list of dangers, although in-form pair Olympicus and Beautiful Crown can also have a say. Mrembo completes the shortlist.

Preference is for NONSUCH LAD who has a 1st and 3rd from only two runs at Sandown and has not been far away in his last three races.

Needs to find more again. Carlisle third is not the best form on offer and dropping back to 5f is a concern.

Likely to improve. 5l to find with stablemate Flying Kiss on their Nottingham form but that was her debut.

LTO Selection:

Runner-up on her last two starts, FLYING KISS sets the standard following a narrow defeat at Nottingham and she can get off the mark. Behind her on that occasion was Corellian Star (third), who is open to improvement, while Tuki Tuki should not be inconvenienced by the drop back in trip. Alexi Boy is a well-related newcomer that must be monitored for market support.

FLYING KISS has been getting the hang of things, edged out only late on when second at Nottingham 8 days ago, so she looks ready to open her account with more still to come. Tuki Tuki could be the main danger dropped in trip, with Alexi Boy the pick of the newcomers.

The newcomers need a market check but as things stand preference is for FLYING KISS, who has just about achieved the most of these.

4	1 4th (1) (11/1 +39%) Craft Irish	11 11/1(+39%)	(1) Craft Irish 11/1, Useful mare. 6/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good) 59 days ago, keeping on again final 100 yds. Underfoot conditions will hold no fears but she needs to pull out more to feature at this level. Winner of a maiden on AW and three turf handicaps, needs a career-best to reach the money.

Creditable 1½ lengths third of 7 to White Moonlight in listed race at Chelmsford City (7f, 50/1) 17 days ago. In the mix back on turf. Has improved to the tune of 42lb in a year, best form on AW but worth a shot at this.
7th	7 7th (7) (4/1 -33%) Lady Onyx	4 4/1(-33%)	(7) Lady Onyx 4/1, Winner at Gowran in May. 1¾ lengths third of 10 to Vetiver in listed race at Carlisle (6.9f, soft, 10/3) 28 days ago. Yard having good spell and she could well have more to offer on the back of just 3 career starts. 7f Gowran maiden winner, has shown good speed in two Listed bids at 7f, leading contender.

Career best when winning 8-runner maiden (13/8) at Listowel (6.3f, good) 52 days ago, kept up to work. Another who needs to pull out a good deal more now stepping up in grade. Rewarded for consistency with Listowel maiden win, not well suited by the race conditions.
9th	10 9th (10) (33/1 -175%) Sioux Spirit	33 33/1(-175%)	(10) Sioux Spirit 33/1, Fairly useful filly. Latest over C&D in June. Last of 5 in handicap at this C&D (good, 11/4) 18 days ago, pushed along halfway and weakening. More needed up in grade in any case. Beat Aussie Girl in a C&D handicap last month, 2lb worse off now, below her best last time.
10th	3 10th (3) (50/1 -67%) Linden Lady	50 50/1(-67%)	(3) Linden Lady 50/1, Fairly useful filly. 13/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, 4¼ lengths fifth of 10 to She's Fit in Gr 3 at Ascot (Australia) in March. Drops back markedly in trip on yard debut and the betting should prove a useful guide. 1m winner in Australia, has been running over middle distances, this trip looks inadequate.

LTO Selection:

The lightly-raced LADY ONYX holds a rating of 99 after being placed in Listed class at Carlisle last month. She is dropping back in trip, but tends to race prominently which will aid her cause here. She won her maiden on soft ground at Gowran Park and should be finishing well on the stiff finish. My Eyes Adore You could outrun her odds in a competitive race. Fozzy Stack's charge has been keeping decent company and slower ground will be more advantageous to her than some of her rivals. Stack's Aussie Girl is holding her form very well. She has won two of her last six races and was placed in the other four including when runner-up in the valuable Scurry at the Curragh on Saturday. British raider Radio Goo Goo has plenty of form to advertise her claims while Linden Lady has some creditable Australian from, so is worth checking for market strength on Irish debut for Denis Hogan. The ground doesn't look to be in Hodd's Girl's favour.

Plenty arrive with claims, including the thriving AUSSIE GIRL. She ran her best race to date when runner-up in an ultra-competitive Curragh handicap 4 days ago and could well be the way to go in this groove. Lady Onyx, Queen Maedbh and My Eyes Adore You head up the list of potential threats.

No runner with an official rating in three digits, but LADY ONYX falls only one pound short and is one of the less exposed types

Faced a stiff task when well held in the Queen Mary Stakes at Royal Ascot next time, but she sets the standard back in maiden company.

Watch for market clues. 27,000euros yearling; Oisin Murphy is 10-27 for this yard; interesting newcomer.
5th	3 5th (3) (8.5/1 +39%) Naturalia	8.5 8.5/1(+39%)	(3) Naturalia 8.5/1, Showed a bit on debut when sixth of 9 in maiden at Windsor (6f, good to firm) a month ago. Should improve from that first experience, though bred to be suited by further in time. May do better with Windsor debut experience under her belt.

LTO Selection:

A chance can be taken with newcomer MIAHARRIS, who is a half-sister to a debut winner in Bletchley, while another relation Time Scale was a Listed winner as a juvenile. The booking of Jim Crowley should only aid her cause, with Tallulabelle looking best placed to chase her home after being outclassed in the Queen Mary last month. Naturalia is another open to improvement after shaping with some promise at Windsor first time out.

TALLULABELLE faced a stiff task at Royal Ascot last time, but she had previously run well when third at Beverley and can resume her progress back down in grade. David O'Meara's filly looks ready to open her account, though Miaharris makes plenty of appeal on paper and is respected on debut. Naturalia can fare best of the remainder.

The clear pick of the fillies with experience is TALLULABELLE. Interesting newcomers Miaharris and Toosha are feared most.

Tongue strap now applied but others still preferred. Some sign of progress when fourth in first-time cheekpieces over 1m at Chelmsford latest.

LTO Selection:

The key to this race looks to be the recent clash over C&D between HAAF A DIAMOND (first) and Astronomica (second), with Kevin Frost's charge taken to come out on top again. The three-year-old needs to prove herself on softer ground but, if doing so, she looks the one to beat. Annalee Lass went close on just her second run for new connections at Wolverhampton a week ago and is another to consider.

ANNALEE LASS ran well when only narrowly denied at Wolverhampton a week ago and she can build on that effort to gain a first success for her current yard. Peter Niven's filly is taken to get the better of Haaf A Diamond and Astronomica, who can both get involved again having fought out the finish over C&D last month.

Haaf A Diamond was let loose on the lead when repelling ASTRONOMICA here last time and the second can gain her revenge.

16th	16 16th (16) (100/1 -52%) Sioux Grit	100 100/1(-52%)	(16) Sioux Grit 100/1, Twelfth of 13 in handicap (50/1) at Dundalk (8f). Off 18 months. First run for yard after leaving Gavin Patrick Cromwell with her fitness to prove. Never in the first six in ten outings for Gavin Cromwell, has a long absence to overcome.
17th	2 17th (2) (100/1 -150%) Mumma Mac	100 100/1(-150%)	(2) Mumma Mac 100/1, 80/1, first run since leaving Hughie Morrison when twenty first of 22 in handicap at Cork (7f, soft) 40 days ago. Has work to do. Placed twice from eight starts for Hughie Morrison, showed nothing on yard debut at Cork.
18th	4 18th (4) (16/1 +36%) Nicky's Champ	16 16/1(+36%)	(4) Nicky's Champ 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 15 in handicap (11/1) at Leopardstown (9f, good) 41 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Did not show a great deal in maidens and finished towards the back in his first handicap.

LTO Selection:

A weak contest and THE BLUE PANTHER may be worth a shot dropping into this grade. The Buratino gelding didn't run too badly when staying on to finish mid-division over slightly shorter at Bellewstown last time. He has form on this kind of ground and is on a career low mark now. Feature This was sixth on his return from a break at Leopardstown 13 days ago and could play a big part now with that run under his belt. Prince Of Abington was a close third at Navan last time over ten furlongs and off just a pound higher mark he is another for the shortlist.

FEATURE THIS made an encouraging return from a lay-off when sixth in a big field at Leopardstown last time out, fading only late on, so is fancied to bag a third success of 2023 here. Alqabeela is still to register a victory but feared most after resuming with a promising eighth in the same contest. Patrick Street and Prince of Abington appeal as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

A third placing over 1m2f at Navan gives PRINCE OF ABINGTON a decent chance. The shorter trip should suit him better

1	3 1st (3) (3.5/1 -17%) Overnight Oats	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(3) Overnight Oats 3.5/1, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) 13 days ago. A 4 lb rise for that looks manageable. Leading claims. Hooded last two starts, winning a maiden handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to soft) on latest.
2	6 2nd (6) (1.62/1 +41%) Ben Hamrash	1.62 1.62/1(+41%)	(6) Ben Hamrash 1.62/1, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 17 days ago (second past the post but subsequently promoted). First attempt on turf here. One to consider under Oisin Murphy. Awarded 7f AW race last time; probably more to offer, which is needed on this turf debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (12/1 -20%) Concert Boy	12 12/1(-20%)	(1) Concert Boy 12/1, Winner at Newcastle in May but poor runs outweigh good ones since, never on terms after another slow start at York 12 days ago. Haydock second (7f, good to firm) in June was easily the best of his last four efforts.
4	2 4th (2) (9/1 -38%) Hello Arthur	9 9/1(-38%)	(2) Hello Arthur 9/1, Fair form. Respectable fourth in handicaps over this C&D and Newmarket (6f) on her last 2 outings. Ran respectably at Newmarket latest start, while shaping as if 6f was shorter than ideal.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/1 +8%) Enola Grey	11 11/1(+8%)	(5) Enola Grey 11/1, Operating below last season's best so far this year, beaten 11 lengths when fourth of 6 at Windsor (1m) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) 24 days ago. Won last September off 5lb higher but little to shout about in her five subsequent starts.
6th	8 6th (8) (6/1 -20%) Chalk Mountain	6 6/1(-20%)	(8) Chalk Mountain 6/1, Made a winning reappearance on AW at Wolverhampton in April and mostly creditable efforts in defeat since, including second of 12 at Kempton (1m) in first-time cheekpieces (retained) a fortnight ago. Contender under Buick. His four turf runs (two this season) were of a lower order than AW form.
7th	7 7th (7) (12/1 -20%) Goodwood Vision	12 12/1(-20%)	(7) Goodwood Vision 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 on 1m Salisbury handicap debut/reappearance 28 days ago, weakening after racing keenly in the lead. The drop to 7f could help but others arrive with more pressing claims. May have more to offer now dropped to 7f with her reappearance run under her belt.
8th	4 8th (4) (16/1 +27%) What A Whopper	16 16/1(+27%)	(4) What A Whopper 16/1, Failed to go on from his debut in 3 outings as a juvenile. Opening handicap mark isn't obviously generous and watching brief is advised on this slightly belated reappearance. Unexposed as a handicap debutant on first run for 300 days; debut was easily best 2yo run.

LTO Selection:

The booking of William Buick aboard CHALK MOUNTAIN catches the eye and, having run well in recent starts, this looks like an ideal opportunity for him to break the maiden on turf. A taking winner at Carlisle, Overnight Oats can give him the most to think about, along with the unexposed Ben Hamrash, who was awarded the race at Chelmsford last time out.

OVERNIGHT OATS showed improved form to open his account at Carlisle a couple of weeks ago and a 4 lb rise may not prevent him following up. Fellow last-time-out scorer Ben Hamrash could pose a threat if able to translate his AW form to turf at the first time of asking. Chalk Mountain completes the shortlist.

It took a while to get off the mark but OVERNIGHT OATS (nap) coming up the hill to score at Carlisle suggests that he may follow up.

5	5 (5) (2/1 +50%) Portoro	2 2/1(+50%)	(5) Portoro 2/1, Offered little all 3 starts in maiden/novice company but proved a different proposition to make a winning turf/handicap debut at Salisbury 11 days ago, drawing clear to score by 9 lengths. Has since left John Butler and he's one to be interested in again despite 13 lb higher mark. Not unbacked when dotting up by 9l on handicap debut; has 13lb rise to contend with.
1	8 1st (8) (2.5/1 +17%) Selenachorus	2.5 2.5/1(+17%)	(8) Selenachorus 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Produced best effort to date when second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 11/2) 58 days ago, conceding first run but keeping on. Remains low-mileage and she ought to have more to offer on that evidence. First go over this far when bearing down on the winner late on here in May last time.
2	2 2nd (2) (14/1 +22%) Kittykarma	14 14/1(+22%)	(2) Kittykarma 14/1, 11/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago, making only laboured progress 2f out and never on terms. Cheekpieces go on now upped significantly in trip. Has not progressed from a decent seasonal debut and now tries cheekpieces.
3	1 3rd (1) (2.25/1 -38%) Trooper Bisdee	2.25 2.25/1(-38%)	(1) Trooper Bisdee 2.25/1, Promising sort. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 7/4, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Bath (14f, good) 7 days ago, going clear entering final 1f. Still looked far from the finished article then and big player with prospect of more to come. Penalised for last week's win but looks a typically progressive handicapper from this yard.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 +14%) Optician	12 12/1(+14%)	(3) Optician 12/1, Ran up to best when runner-up at Carlisle (11f, soft) in June but proved disappointing when last of 6 at Beverley (12.1f) 3 weeks ago, fading last ½f having had the run of things. Bounce back called for now equipped with first-time cheekpieces. 0-7 but has ability; returning to slower ground may help, as could the new headgear.
5th	4 5th (4) (66/1 -371%) Congruent	66 66/1(-371%)	(4) Congruent 66/1, 20/1 and visored for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, good to firm) 19 days ago, weakening over 2f out. Others make greater appeal upped significantly in trip. 0-8 and placed only once; disappointing last twice in cheekpieces and a visor.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 +13%) Ausdaisia	14 14/1(+13%)	(9) Ausdaisia 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 6 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, firm, 25/1) 19 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Something to find on form. Mild promise on handicap debut but then finished last on return to Haydock; now hooded.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 -75%) The Pug	28 28/1(-75%)	(7) The Pug 28/1, Opened account in first-time blinkers at Lingfield (10f) in January and dispelled a lesser effort when runner-up at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in April. Hasn't always looked the most straightforward but Hollie Doyle an eye-catching booking on return. Close to winning form when chasing home an unexposed one at Wolverhampton latest.

LTO Selection:

Trooper Bisdee is bound to be popular after a comfortable success over further at Bath last time out. However, preference is for the easy Salisbury-scorer PORTORO, who makes his first start for a new yard and receives 6lb from the aforementioned rival. The step up in trip could eke out further improvement from the selection, but another threat may come from Selenachorus following a runner-up effort over C&D on her handicap debut in May.

TROOPER BISDEE took his record in handicaps to 2-3 despite looking far from the finished article at Bath 7 days ago and, just the type to go on improving for his shrewd stable, he looks to hold sound claims once more. Portoro bolted up himself on handicap debut latest and along with Selenachorus heads up the dangers.

Trooper Bisdee is feared but he's opposed with wide-margin Salisbury winner PORTORO, who has more to offer.

LTO Selection:

SIOUX PRINCESS is interesting on her first start for Michael O'Callaghan. The Divine Prophet filly was placed three times in the autumn and has eased a few pounds over the winter to put her on the basement mark. She is a half-sister to listed winner Dickiedooda and may be capable of a bit better for her new yard. Simply Sideways has been knocking on the door and remains on the same mark having been a solid fourth at Bellewstown last time. She looks a leading player. Jazz Dreamers was a close fourth on his last outing at Killarney and looks on a competitive mark so is another for the shortlist.

MORNING APPROACH was better than the result at Roscommon last time and, in anticipation of a well-run race, a chance is taken on her in a wide-open contest. Jazz Dreamer is likely to be on the premises again and Singe Anglais isn't without hope.

Michael O'Callaghan is not often associated with low-grade handicappers and \bSIOUX PRINCESS\b catches the eye on her stable debut

1	4 1st (4) (7.5/1 -7%) Night Arc	7.5 7.5/1(-7%)	(4) Night Arc 7.5/1, Improved when landing a 1¼m Leicester handicap on the second of just 2 appearances last season. Low-key start to the campaign but dropped in trip and much more like it with a brace of runner-up efforts this summer. Back in better form the last twice, finishing second at Newbury and Doncaster.
2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 +40%) Two Tempting	3 3/1(+40%)	(1) Two Tempting 3/1, Career-best effort when doubling career total at Kempton 3 weeks ago. Both wins gained at that venue but he's equally effective on turf and 4 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent a bold follow-up bid. AW winner last time; creditable second in both attempts over C&D; in the mix.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 +33%) Golden Sands	12 12/1(+33%)	(2) Golden Sands 12/1, Front runner who opened account for this yard at Kempton (1m) in February. Bagged first win on turf granted an uncontested lead at Beverley (8.5f) in May but certainly didn't enjoy the run of things at Carlisle since. Expected to bounce back. Made all at Beverley in May; unsuited by change of tactics last time.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 +17%) Snapcracklepop	10 10/1(+17%)	(6) Snapcracklepop 10/1, Just 1 lb above his last winning mark, gained at Windsor last summer. Headgear fitted this term and solid if unspectacular efforts so far. Generally consistent and has possibilities back down in class.
5th	9 5th (9) (2.25/1 +25%) Mudskipper	2.25 2.25/1(+25%)	(9) Mudskipper 2.25/1, Fair form at 2 yrs, placed in a Goodwood maiden and a novice event at Newbury. Just a fair start to life in handicaps but he's been gelded since last seen, is unexposed and has the services of William Buick. Gelding operation may prove beneficial; still open to improvement in handicaps.
6th	5 6th (5) (8/1 +20%) Intercessor	8 8/1(+20%)	(5) Intercessor 8/1, Won 3 times at around 1m in 2022 and placed twice this spring. Brushed aside in the Carlisle Bell when last seen, though he did fluff the start slightly (normally a prominent racer). Form dipped last time but is capable of being involved if bouncing back.
7th	10 7th (10) (11/1 -38%) Frequent Flyer	11 11/1(-38%)	(10) Frequent Flyer 11/1, Interesting runner on his 2-y-o form but has yet to fire this season, visored when only sixth of 8 upped to 8.5f at Epsom a fortnight ago. Blinkers now the headgear of choice. Chance depends on how well he responds to change of headgear.
8th	8 8th (8) (14/1 -65%) Fascinating Lips	14 14/1(-65%)	(8) Fascinating Lips 14/1, Won Lingfield seller last summer before a pair of good placed efforts. Successful transition to hurdling in 4-runner novice hurdle at Fontwell in September and shaped as though in need of the run on last month's Flat return. Expected to step up on that. 1m winner in Germany; all of his British Flat form is over middle distances.
9th	3 9th (3) (22/1 -10%) Billy Mill	22 22/1(-10%)	(3) Billy Mill 22/1, Rarely races on turf and not in top form on the AW on last 2 outings. That said, a handicapping case can certainly be made for him now 2 lb below his last successful mark. It's over two years since his last piece of respectable turf form.

LTO Selection:

Frequent Flyer has been a little disappointing so far this season, but blinkers go on for the first time and Oisin Murphy is back on board so a better showing is possible. Distinguished Lady goes up in trip to a mile on her first start for Darryll Holland and is of certain interest. NIGHT ARC travelled so well into the race at Doncaster last time that the suspicion is that he is well up to winning off this sort of mark, especially if delaying his challenge a bit later.

There's definitely an air of unfinished business around MUDSKIPPER, who could well up his game on the back of a gelding operation with William Buick taking the ride. Night Arc arrives on the back of a brace of runner-up efforts and he seems sure to give it another good go, along with recent AW winner Two Tempting.

Another chance is given to MUDSKIPPER. Second choice is Night Arc. A few others also have clear possibilities.

Below best at Kempton next time but not seen to best effect when third in 6-runner handicap (7f) at first-named venue last month. Ease in class rates a plus here and she's one to consider. Beaten in both her handicaps; mark hasn't budged but she can still figure prominently.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 +0%) American Belle	4 4/1(+0%)	(3) American Belle 4/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Fourth of 6 in handicap (18/5) at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Not out of things. Hat-trick bid came up well short behind Prepense at Newmarket a month ago.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 +9%) Icy Dip	10 10/1(+9%)	(5) Icy Dip 10/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Kempton in April. Seventh of 10 in handicap (9/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 34 days ago, making little impression. Return to 1m may well suit ideally. Beat Sonemos on reappearance but has been nowhere near that level since.
4	4 4th (4) (25/1 -79%) Windsor Pass	25 25/1(-79%)	(4) Windsor Pass 25/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 18/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 42 days ago, headway from 2f out but never a threat. Lurking on a handy mark so one to keep an eye on, particularly if betting speaks in her favour. Has not progressed from a respectable reappearance and she's now 0-18.
5th	2 5th (2) (8/1 -45%) Liberalist	8 8/1(-45%)	(2) Liberalist 8/1, Placed both starts as a juvenile and found some improvement to make a winning return in a Thirsk maiden (7f, soft) in April. Never figured in Group 3 Fred Darling later that month but this rates more suitable back from a break and underfoot conditions will hold no fears. Downgraded from a Guineas trial but this mark looks quite harsh on what she's achieved.
6th	6 6th (6) (5/1 -25%) Sonemos	5 5/1(-25%)	(6) Sonemos 5/1, Improved model this term, building on her Kempton reappearance run to score over 1m here in May. Good second under another front-running ride at Sandown (1m) and fancied to give another good account for all she's yet to tackle ground softer than good. Unraced on turf slower than good but is having a solid season and looks progressive.

LTO Selection:

Sonemos wasn't beaten far at Sandown last month and remains open to improvement in handicap company.The likelihood of slower ground raises a concern, however, and the class-dropping PREPENSE could be a more profitable route to follow. The daughter of Kingman has shown improved form since returning after a wind operation and appears to hold more solid credentials at this level. Liberalist faced a stiff test in the Fred Darling last time and should also appreciate the ease in grade.

This looks less demanding than the race PREPENSE contested at Newmarket last month and, with form on ground softer than good, she could well be the way to go. Sonemos and American Belle head the dangers, whilst the returning Liberalist is one to keep an eye on also.

Prepense can go well for all that she's on a tough mark but SONEMOS (nap) is having a solid season and could get an easy lead.

Twenty second of 29 in handicap at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm, 40/1) 34 days ago, weakening over 1f out.

Remains early days with him but he does need to prove himself at this sort of trip. Back from a break with ground in his favour but still unproven over this far.
6th	4 6th (4) (12/1 -200%) Pretreville	12 12/1(-200%)	(4) Pretreville 12/1, Smart gelding at best. 28/1, 4¾ lengths seventh of 9 to Bold Discovery in listed race at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 24 days ago, very much having run of race. Return to softer ground may help now and better showing anticipated. Below best both starts this term; has winning form on soft in France.
7th	2 7th (2) (40/1 -300%) Freescape	40 40/1(-300%)	(2) Freescape 40/1, Useful gelding who struggled in face of some stiff tasks in Meydan earlier in the year. Again ran below best when last of 6 in conditions' event at Newcastle (10.2f) in April and worth noting he's still to get his head in front on turf. Six-time AW winner is 0-31 on turf and has little experience of soft ground; opposable.

LTO Selection:

CARRYTHEONE has run well in stakes company on his last couple of outings and this looks like a nice opportunity to get him back into the winners' enclosure. The Lope De Vega gelding is versatile ground-wise and brings solid recent form into this race having been third in a good listed race at the Curragh last time. He had Pretreville in behind that day and may be able to confirm form with that rival, who faded after making the running then. Freescape is another that holds an official rating of 103 but soft ground here would be a bit of a concern for him on his return from a break. Honey Sweet is an interesting runner on her first start for Joseph O'Brien. The Adaay filly was a Listed winner for Karl Burke.

CARRYTHEONE fared best of those held up when third in a Curragh listed event (1m) 24 days ago and, with the drop in trip/return to softer ground holding no fears, Johnny Murtagh's 6-y-o could be the way to go. Pretreville needs to shrug off a lesser run but is a player on the pick of his form. Warrior Brave is also worth a second look.

Although on a long losing run CARRYTHEONE has been running well in Group company and looks to have a good opportunity here

20:10 Sandown Handicap (Class 4) 10f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (3/1 -33%) Gallant Lion	3 3/1(-33%)	(8) Gallant Lion 3/1, Arrives firmly on the up having supplemented a Brighton win with a smooth success at Newbury 13 days ago, well on top at the finish having travelled strongly. Should put up a bold bid for the hat-trick. On a hat-trick; up another 7lb but there was plenty to like about latest win from off pace.
2	7 2nd (7) (4/1 +56%) Dancing In Paris	4 4/1(+56%)	(7) Dancing In Paris 4/1, Took a step forward making his handicap debut when off the mark at Haydock (1m) in April. Backed up that effort when second at Sandown next time, though not quite in the same form on latest two outings. Tries this trip for the first time. Backward steps on last two outings (1m1f and 1m) but there's stamina on the dam's side.
3	9 3rd (9) (4/1 +27%) Stage Show	4 4/1(+27%)	(9) Stage Show 4/1, Hasn't had much racing and got back on track when third of 6 in a Haydock handicap last time. Others look more progressive/better treated, though. Not so good over C&D two runs back but close up judged on best efforts either side.
4	6 4th (6) (8/1 +43%) Dumfries	8 8/1(+43%)	(6) Dumfries 8/1, Well supported and showed improved form when easily winning 12-runner maiden at Southwell in March. Disappointed at Musselburgh next time but has been given a break since (gelded) and should get the longer trip. Favourite but flopped on handicap debut at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft) in April; gelded.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 +45%) Golspie	12 12/1(+45%)	(2) Golspie 12/1, Won 1m maiden at Newbury on debut in April and similar form when fourth under a penalty at Salisbury following month. Only sixth off a stiff opening mark at Newmarket last time, though, and improvement is required. Has not lived up to his debut win; 6th of 7 in 1m2f handicap latest; cheekpieces today.
6th	5 6th (5) (4/1 +20%) Gozo	4 4/1(+20%)	(5) Gozo 4/1, Trained by Ian Williams at 2 yrs and showed much improved form in first-time cheekpieces on stable/handicap debut when going close in a 5-runner handicap at Haydock. Has remained in form since and should be on the premises. Drops in class after fifth of 12 in valuable 3yo handicap at Newmarket (1m2f) 12 days ago.
7th	3 7th (3) (8/1 -129%) Morcar	8 8/1(-129%)	(3) Morcar 8/1, Left previous form well behind when easing to a successful handicap debut in a 3-runner event at Windsor last time. Further progress on the cards and should go well. Won handicap debut at Windsor (1m2f) in a three-runner race but he did it easily; up 8lb.

LTO Selection:

GALLANT LION is improving at a rate of knots and, with this stiff finish expected to play to his strengths, he can land the hat-trick under William Buick. Morcar won easily on handicap debut but has been raised 8lb, which will make his life tougher. Golspie, who may improve for first-time cheekpieces, and Stage Show remain unexposed and cannot be ruled out either.

GALLANT LION is progressing well and once again showed a good attitude to score at Newbury recently, so he's worth a chance to complete the hat-trick at the likely expense of Morcar, who improved to make a successful handicap debut with loads in hand at Windsor a month ago. Gozo is the pick of the remainder.

Morcar won in sumptuous fashion on his handicap debut but from only two rivals. Preference is for hat-trick seeker GALLANT LION.

20:20 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (2/1 -23%) Spirit Of Breeze	2 2/1(-23%)	(1) Spirit Of Breeze 2/1, Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm, 3/1) 25 days ago, no match for winner. Should go well again. Back to form in a tongue-tie but this slower ground might not be ideal.
2	2 2nd (2) (16/1 +20%) Margaret's Fuchsia	16 16/1(+20%)	(2) Margaret's Fuchsia 16/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Brighton (7f, good) 22 days ago. Still a maiden and has something to prove at present. Three times she's made the frame but right out of form on her last two outings.
3	8 3rd (8) (3.5/1 +42%) American Rose	3.5 3.5/1(+42%)	(8) American Rose 3.5/1, 15/2, seventh of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 15 days ago. Type to bounce back quickly, so can't be written off. Mostly consistent in handicaps until dropping her guard last time at Wolverhampton.
4	3 4th (3) (8/1 +20%) Global Crisis	8 8/1(+20%)	(3) Global Crisis 8/1, Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good to firm, 40/1) 20 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Not completely dismissed. Beaten 5l+ in his three handicaps (6f/7f) and needs some help from the blinkers.
5th	7 5th (7) (6/1 +20%) Hardy Angel	6 6/1(+20%)	(7) Hardy Angel 6/1, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good to firm, 13/2) 20 days ago. Operating below best at present and others make more appeal. Has hinted at winning potential but progress seems to have stalled in a big way.
6th	9 6th (9) (10/1 -18%) Show Of Hands	10 10/1(-18%)	(9) Show Of Hands 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in minor event (80/1) at Salisbury (7f, soft) 11 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Worth a market check for all that she has plenty to find. In good hands and a tongue-tie is fitted for this handicap debut and first run over 6f.
7th	5 7th (5) (18/1 +36%) Shine's Ambition	18 18/1(+36%)	(5) Shine's Ambition 18/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 66/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 5 days ago. Others preferred. Hit and miss this season, running badly the last twice after finishing close up at Redcar.
8th	6 8th (6) (5.5/1 -57%) Diamond Dreamer	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(6) Diamond Dreamer 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Andrew Balding when respectable seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 15/2) 20 days ago. Should strip fitter for that and remains with potential. Placed in a handicap for previous yard and may have needed his first run for this one.

LTO Selection:

MOULIN BOOJ does at least have some scope to improve and, having shown more zest when tried in a hood at Yarmouth last week, he could have more to give back at this trip with the headgear retained. American Rose is a proven winner and heads the list of dangers, with Spirit Of Breeze and Diamond Dreamer also making the shortlist.

SPIRIT OF BREEZE found only one too good at Lingfield earlier in the month and can land the spoils. Diamond Dreamer and American Rose are feared.

In an open race a chance is taken that SHOW OF HANDS will show more now she goes handicapping off a basement mark.

20:30 Naas Handicap 7f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	9 1st (9) (6/1 +33%) Bells On Her Toes	6 6/1(+33%)	(9) Bells On Her Toes 6/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/2, creditable second of 5 in handicap at this course (5.9f, good) 18 days ago, slowly away. Visor back on. Decent run back in trip here on latest so not one to rule out back at her optimum trip.
2	3 2nd (3) (18/1 -112%) Helpmeout	18 18/1(-112%)	(3) Helpmeout 18/1, Rare below-par effort when ninth of 14 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 7/1) 13 days ago. Type to bounce back quickly. Okay mark but best form is on better ground.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/1 -27%) Facethepuckout	7 7/1(-27%)	(7) Facethepuckout 7/1, Creditable third of 13 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm, 13/2) 28 days ago. Can give a good account. Running well in defeat this season on quicker ground; return to softer ground should suit.
4	6 4th (6) (3/1 +0%) Desert Haven	3 3/1(+0%)	(6) Desert Haven 3/1, 5/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, career best when winning 14-runner maiden at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 14 days ago, keeping on well. Makes handicap debut. Respected under Colin Keane. Fairyhouse maiden winner could have more to offer back on soft on handicap debut.
5th	1 5th (1) (3/1 +10%) Coins Cross	3 3/1(+10%)	(1) Coins Cross 3/1, Good second of 14 in handicap (11/2) at Leopardstown (8f, good) 13 days ago, running on. Should go well. Just denied at Leopardstown; softer ground should suit as he drops in trip; big chance.
6th	2 6th (2) (5.5/1 +45%) Pale Iris	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(2) Pale Iris 5.5/1, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 7/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Stable having good spell. Respectable recent comeback run and could go well here back on favoured soft ground.
7th	8 7th (8) (28/1 -12%) Siesta Beach	28 28/1(-12%)	(8) Siesta Beach 28/1, Course winner but absent since finishing down the field in a Curragh listed race 13 months ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Reappears here with blinkers tried on handicap debut; best watched.
4	4 \|RR\| (4) (5/1 +44%) Semblance Of Order	5 5/1(+44%)	(4) Semblance Of Order 5/1, Latest win at Leopardstown in June. Not seen to best effect when seventh of 11 in handicap at the Curragh (9f, good, 9/2) 26 days ago, not ideally placed. Back down in trip. Versatile in terms of trip and ground; 3yo likely still has more to offer and shortlisted.

LTO Selection:

COINS CROSS went close last time and may be able to strike now on softer ground. Both his previous career wins have come with plenty of cut in the ground and he wouldn't be winning out of turn now having just failed by a short-head to get up at Leopardstown 13 days ago. Desert Haven is versatile ground-wise and has to be respected having opened his account in good style in a Fairyhouse maiden a fortnight ago. Bells On Her Toes and Facethepuckout are others with solid placed form recently that have to come into calculations.

COINS CROSS added to his good record when blinkered when going down only on the nod at Leopardstown 13 days ago and is taken to resume winning ways now. Helpmeout was behind the selection in ninth in that same Leopardstown contest but isn't the type to stay down for long and is second choice ahead of Michael O'Callaghan's Facethepuckout.

Top-weight COINS CROSS can strike again on his favoured soft ground after a narrow defeat last time

20:30 Naas Handicap 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

20:40 Sandown Handicap (Class 4) 14f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (9/1 +0%) State Legend	9 9/1(+0%)	(2) State Legend 9/1, Successful 3 times at up to 1½m for James Ferguson last year. Best effort for present yard when going down narrowly at York (13.9f) last month and wasn't seen to best effect when sixth of 7 at Newmarket since. Others more appealing, though. Close at York penultimate run, easily the most competitive of eight attempts for this yard.
2	9 2nd (9) (5/1 +38%) Bunker Bay	5 5/1(+38%)	(9) Bunker Bay 5/1, Belatedly off the mark in 4-runner handicap (5/2) at Yarmouth (11.5f, good) 20 days ago, pushed out. This longer trip is an unknown but he remains feasibly treated. Finally off the mark at Yarmouth (11.4f, good to soft) latest, against just three rivals.
3	4 3rd (4) (20/1 +9%) Ace Rothstein	20 20/1(+9%)	(4) Ace Rothstein 20/1, Not successful since early 2022 and hasn't landed a blow in a couple of starts for this yard. A while since he last had a prominent finish on Flat; with new trainer last two outings.
4	10 4th (10) (8.5/1 +39%) Militry Decoration	8.5 8.5/1(+39%)	(10) Militry Decoration 8.5/1, Posted his best effort this year when fourth of 11 in handicap over C&D (good) 19 days ago, suited by way race developed. 1 lb lower now and holds each-way claims. C&D run on latest start is among the plentiful evidence that he holds an each-way chance.
5th	11 5th (11) (4/1 -33%) Lusaka	4 4/1(-33%)	(11) Lusaka 4/1, Chasing a hat-trick after small-field wins at Chepstow (12f) and Ffos Las (14f) last month. This is undoubtedly more competitive but a further 4 lb rise doesn't look too severe. On a hat-trick; back up another 4lb and in class but he's on the shortlist.
6th	1 6th (1) (2.75/1 +31%) Neandra	2.75 2.75/1(+31%)	(1) Neandra 2.75/1, Run creditably the last twice, latest when third of 7 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 20 days ago. 1 lb lower now and looks ready for another crack at this longer trip. Edging down weights; latest start gives a bit of encouragement for second crack at 1m6f.
7th	5 7th (5) (11/1 -38%) Victory	11 11/1(-38%)	(5) Victory 11/1, Bounced back to best, in first-time cheekpieces, when close second of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 9/2) 25 days ago, better placed than most. 3 lb higher now but warrants respect. Cheekpieces on when 2nd on AW latest start; needs to find extra over this new, longer trip.
8th	3 8th (3) (8.5/1 -6%) Justus	8.5 8.5/1(-6%)	(3) Justus 8.5/1, French maiden winner who opened his account in this country when taking Doncaster handicap (16.5f) in April. Below that form over longer trip at Chester since but warrants respect with cheekpieces back on here. Had wind operation. Easy Doncaster win (2m, soft; up 7lb today) in April; well beaten in 2m2f Chester Plate.
9th	6 9th (6) (16/1 +11%) Noble Masquerade	16 16/1(+11%)	(6) Noble Masquerade 16/1, Won on his return (11.5f) in 2022 but hasn't been able to add to that victory since and is yet to fully convince over this longer trip. More to prove on this third go at 1m6f and over two years since he raced without headgear.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (33/1 -50%) Tralee Hills	33 33/1(-50%)	(8) Tralee Hills 33/1, Resumed winning ways over this trip at Bath in April but wasn't in same form at Epsom last time and others look better treated. Ground softer than good would be preferable; considered each-way if he gets it.

LTO Selection:

Militry Decoration has been coming to the boil nicely this season and has dropped back down to his last winning mark, which makes him a player. Bunker Bay scrambled home over shorter at Yarmouth last time and shapes like this trip will suit. That said, this might be a good opportunity for NEANDRA to get off the mark for the season. Things haven't panned out for her on the all-weather at Kempton the last twice and there is a good chance this track will suit back on turf.

LUSAKA arrives in fine form and still looks on a workable mark. He can extend his winning run in the finale. Alpine Stroll and Neandra can also make their presence felt.

Something has clicked with LUSAKA who can defy the step up in class to complete his hat-trick.

1	1 1st (1) (3.2/1 +20%) Sweet Fantasy	3.2 3.2/1(+20%)	(1) Sweet Fantasy 3.2/1, Respectable third of 10 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, good to firm, 9/2) 20 days ago. Can go well. Welcome return to form when beaten under 2l into third over a similar trip at Haydock.
2	7 2nd (7) (5/1 -25%) Edwina Sheeran	5 5/1(-25%)	(7) Edwina Sheeran 5/1, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Ripon (12f, good, 11/8) 16 days ago, eased down. Solid claims for all that this is a stronger contest. 4lb higher than for winning a Class 6 last time but the front two were dominant.
3	5 3rd (5) (4.5/1 -29%) Dreams Adozen	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(5) Dreams Adozen 4.5/1, Visored for 1st time, good second of 6 in handicap (12/1) at Haydock (11.6f, firm) 19 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Makes plenty of appeal. Runner-up the last twice (blinkers/visor) and should be in the thick of it once more.
4	4 4th (4) (4/1 +33%) D Day Arvalenreeva	4 4/1(+33%)	(4) D Day Arvalenreeva 4/1, Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. Winner here in May. Creditable second of 6 in handicap (6/1) at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) 25 days ago, clear of rest. Should give another good account. Same mark as when clear of the rest behind an improver at Newmarket last time.
5th	3 5th (3) (14/1 -65%) Al Asmakh	14 14/1(-65%)	(3) Al Asmakh 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 7 in minor event at Kempton (12f, 10/1) 20 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Makes handicap debut. Has some potential but assessor has taken no chances with opening mark. Returning from three months off when only 2l away in a 1m4f novice at Kempton; turf debut.
6th	6 6th (6) (6.5/1 +19%) Mrs Twig	6.5 6.5/1(+19%)	(6) Mrs Twig 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in handicap (5/1) at Ffos Las (10f, good) 22 days ago. Needs more but she's going the right way. No excuses from the front when a 3l fourth of six on her handicap debut at Ffos Las.
7th	2 7th (2) (6.5/1 +7%) Jo's Rainbow	6.5 6.5/1(+7%)	(2) Jo's Rainbow 6.5/1, Winner at Haydock in June. Last of 4 in minor event at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft, 5/6) 18 days ago. Needs to bounce back. 5lb higher than for her clearcut Haydock win; last time was too bad to be true.

LTO Selection:

The hat-trick seeking Edwina Sheeran appeals, despite having to shoulder another 4lb after her latest Ripon success. However, the C&D winner D DAY ARVALENREEVA needs more serious thought and is preferred now dropped back in class after posting a respectable second-placed finish at Newmarket at the start of this month. Dreams Adozen has been progressive since being fitted with headgear and is weighted to get closer to the selection than when they clashed here in May.

SWEET FANTASY is well treated on AW form and took a step in the right direction when third at Haydock last time, so she gets the marginal vote in a trappy contest. Dreams Adozen should go well if the headgear continues to have a positive effect and the progressive Edwina Sheeran can't be ruled out.

This might set up nicely for JO'S RAINBOW if she can return to the form she showed when a decisive winner at Haydock.

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.
