1	5 1st (5) (5.5/1 -22%) Mars Harper		5.5 5.5/1(-22%)																															(5) Mars Harper 5.5/1, Useful chaser. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 7 in novice chase (13/2) at this course (18.2f, good to soft) here on Tuesday. Claims with a repeat if allowed to take his chance. Good run here on Tuesday but should acquit himself well if he turns out again.
2	6 2nd (6) (2.75/1 +8%) Sir Argus		2.75 2.75/1(+8%)																															(6) Sir Argus 2.75/1, Useful hurdler. 16/1, good third of 25 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.6f, good to soft) 98 days ago, left poorly placed. Makes chase debut for top yard so a must for the shortlist. Could be the type of horse to pay much more respect to fences; respected on chase debut.
3	2 3rd (2) (2.75/1 +75%) Grozni		2.75 2.75/1(+75%)																															(2) Grozni 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Three wins from 11 runs last season. Caught the eye when third on chase debut in May but not in the same form when fourth of 7 in novice chase at Kilbeggan (19.4f, good, 6/1) 45 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Capable of better over fences with better jumping; likely to find one or two too good here.
4	4 4th (4) (2/1 -14%) Joyeux Machin		2 2/1(-14%)																															(4) Joyeux Machin 2/1, Useful winner at 24f over hurdles. 11/4, third of 4 in novice chase at Wexford (19.8f, good to soft) on debut over fences 27 days ago, held back by a bad mistake. Expected to build on that. Unlucky at Wexford; the one to beat although would not want the ground to soften too much.
5th	3 5th (3) (100/1 -52%) I Am Rocco		100 100/1(-52%)																															(3) I Am Rocco 100/1, Modest hurdler. Creditable sixth of 14 in novice hurdle (15/2) at Fairyhouse (20.4f, soft). Off 6 months. Makes chase debut. First run for yard after leaving W. P. Mullins. Debuts for Brian McMahon here but looks out of his depth on his chase debut.
7	7 |PU| (7) (7.5/1 -15%) Jungle Prose		7.5 7.5/1(-15%)																															(7) Jungle Prose 7.5/1, Useful winner at 25f over hurdles. Second of 7 in novice chase at Kilbeggan (19f, soft, 5/1) on debut over fences 13 days ago, taking a while to warm to her task over inadequate 19f. More to come upped in trip. Respectable debut over fences when second in a beginners at Kilbeggan; should improve.

LTO Selection:

SIR ARGUS is a half-brother to useful chaser Brahma Bull and goes over fences for the first time after showing improved form over hurdles in the spring. After landing a maiden at Cork, he came home well to be third in a big-field handicap at the Punchestown Festival and makes plenty of appeal for the champion trainer. Joyeux Machin bounced back to form after a few indifferent runs over hurdles when easily beating Jungle Prose at Wexford, and his chase debut at the same track was promising. Paul Nolan's charge was in with every chance until making a costly mistake at the last, which saw him drop to third behind the talented Ballyadam. Jungle Prose was a very progressive hurdler last term and was notably weak in the market when runner-up on chase debut at Kilbeggan. She should be all the better for that experience.

JOYEUX MACHIN's opening effort over fences at Wexford a month ago was full of promise and he's fancied to build on that and open his account. Sir Argus is sure to be well prepared for this chase debut and is a big threat, along with Mars Harper if he's allowed to take his chance.

The selection is JOYEUX MACHIN(nap) who was unlucky on his chase debut at Wexford and can go better here if there is not too much rain

1	11 1st (11) (1.38/1 +8%) Vandeek		1.38 1.38/1(+8%)																															(11) Vandeek 1.38/1, 625,000 gns breeze-up who did very well to justify cramped odds on his 6f Nottingham debut (soft ground) as he very slowly away and showed obvious inexperience before finishing well. Has the potential for significant improvement. Evens, overcame a very tardy start to justify favouritism at Nottingham; good prospect.
2	3 2nd (3) (25/1 -178%) Ballymount Boy		25 25/1(-178%)																															(3) Ballymount Boy 25/1, Has made a promising start, building on his AW debut second when going one better in maiden company at Hamilton (6f, good) 3 weeks later. Should be more to come but it's fair to say this is a steep rise in class. Comfortably beat his 3 rivals at Hamilton (good to soft) last time; this is much harder.
3	9 3rd (9) (7.5/1 +58%) Toca Madera		7.5 7.5/1(+58%)																															(9) Toca Madera 7.5/1, Down the field in the Norfolk at Royal Ascot but showed he can be competitive in Group company when 2 lengths third to the reopposing Jasour in July Stakes at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. His trainer is no stranger to success in this race. Needs to show he can back up the form of his 40-1 third in July Stakes.
4	6 4th (6) (22/1 -120%) Hala Emaraaty		22 22/1(-120%)																															(6) Hala Emaraaty 22/1, Won first 2 outings but his limitations have been exposed at listed level since. First outing beyond 5f this afternoon. Likely outsider. Listed defeats expose his limitations to an extent; first go beyond 5f.
5th	4 5th (4) (7/1 +13%) Bobsleigh		7 7/1(+13%)																															(4) Bobsleigh 7/1, Won first 2 starts, latterly the Woodcote at Epsom (6f, good to firm). Improved again when sixth of 20 in the Coventry at Royal Ascot and better than he could show in the Super Sprint at Newbury recently. Will still need to raise his game to go close here. Has useful 6f form and the return to this trip looks a plus.
6th	8 6th (8) (2/1 +33%) Sketch		2 2/1(+33%)																															(8) Sketch 2/1, Looked very useful when scoring by 5 lengths on his recent 6f Newbury debut. Fast tracked to pattern level on the back of that. Should have more to offer. Impressive debut at Newbury 12 days ago, looking a useful prospect; interesting.
7th	7 7th (7) (16/1 +27%) Nazalan		16 16/1(+27%)																															(7) Nazalan 16/1, Made all in 5f Sandown novice on second start but beaten 6¼ lengths by Kylian in a listed race back there since. Was a bit better than the result on that occasion but still rates an outsider now stepping up to 6f for the first time. Stiff task upped to 6f; well down this pack judged on his 5f form.

LTO Selection:

---

Expensive breeze-up purchase VANDEEK overcame a sluggish start to justify favouritism on his Nottingham introduction, and the third ran well here earlier in the week. His proven ability on rain-affected ground gets him the nod ahead of Sketch, who couldn't have been more impressive on his Newbury debut. Toca Madera did well to make the frame in the July Stakes, while Asadna has yet to live up to his Ripon demolition job but can't be written off just yet.

With the 2 market leaders dropping out, VANDEEK could be the answer. He has a bit of ground to make up on form, but is open to considerable improvement following a very promising debut success at Nottingham. Sketch was also impressive on his Newbury debut, Watch My Tracker still has potential after getting off the mark at the third attempt last month.

Several withdrawals have weakened the field. The once-raced colts VANDEEK (narrowly preferred) and Sketch bring lots of potential.

1	5 1st (5) (2.12/1 -6%) Mole Court		2.12 2.12/1(-6%)																															(5) Mole Court 2.12/1, Has made a positive start to chasing career, landing brace of 20f handicaps at Worcester fitted with cheekpieces this summer. Up 8 lb and tackles a new trip but seems sure to go well. Two 2m4f wins at Worcester; up another 8lb; could prove up to it.
2	1 2nd (1) (1.62/1 +7%) Tiger Orchid		1.62 1.62/1(+7%)																															(1) Tiger Orchid 1.62/1, Won twice over hurdles last season and has already matched that tally over fences after just 3 starts, doing so with plenty in hand at Worcester last week. Penalty unlikely to prevent further success. Easy Worcester winner last week on soft ground; hard to beat under a penalty.
3	4 3rd (4) (4.5/1 +10%) Post No Bills		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(4) Post No Bills 4.5/1, Point winner who has taken well to fences, bagging handicaps at Fontwell and Cartmel in May. Heavy ground perhaps to blame for tame effort at Cartmel since. Tailed off on heavy ground latest but considered on previous form.
4	3 4th (3) (6.5/1 -8%) Hidden Depths		6.5 6.5/1(-8%)																															(3) Hidden Depths 6.5/1, Multiple Flat/hurdles winner who made a winning chase debut at Kempton, seen to good effect (held up off strong pace). Sound efforts since, no match for the winner when second of 5 at Market Rasen 3 weeks ago. Good claims on form but rain would pose a problem.
2	2 |PU| (2) (14/1 -56%) Inishbiggle		14 14/1(-56%)																															(2) Inishbiggle 14/1, Emphatic winner of 19.3f Catterick handicap hurdle in February 2022. Failed to convince as a chaser so far but has undergone breathing surgery since last outing. Wind surgery since respectable Bangor run in June; needs better.

LTO Selection:

TIGER ORCHID could hardly have been any more impressive when sauntering round Worcester last week, which made it two from three over fences, and a 7lb penalty may not be enough to stop him going in again. Receiving weight from all of his rivals, Mole Court appears the biggest danger, having won his last two races in emphatic style and merits plenty of respect. Of the remainder, Post No Bills should appreciate this sounder surface following his Cartmel effort last month.

TIGER ORCHID and Mole Court have both made hay at Worcester switched to fences in recent weeks and are expected to dominate this, with marginal preference for the Dr Richard Newland inmate.

Last week's easy Worcester win makes TIGER ORCHID the one to beat.

1	1 (1) (5/1 -43%) Momaer		5 5/1(-43%)																															(1) Momaer 5/1, After 6 months off, showed much improved form when making all in 10-runner handicap at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago, travelling powerfully. Can score again with tongue strap on 1st time. Lightly raced 4yo who made all to win comfortably by over 3l last month, after a break.
1	9 1st (9) (3.5/1 +75%) Enderman		3.5 3.5/1(+75%)																															(9) Enderman 3.5/1, Twenty-nine runs since his sole win back in 2020. Has finished in the frame on his last 4 starts, second of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this C&D (soft) 16 days ago, but he remains vulnerable for win purposes. Yet to add to nursery win in 2020 but went close over C&D (soft) 16 days ago.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/1 -6%) Trabajo Detecho		9 9/1(-6%)																															(6) Trabajo Detecho 9/1, Confirmed promise of previous run when gaining a first success on turf in 7-runner handicap at Hamilton (6f, good, 5/1) 2 weeks ago. Can give his running again. Consistent and steadily progressive 3yo who recently collected his third win of the year.
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 +50%) Impeller		3 3/1(+50%)																															(5) Impeller 3/1, Confirmed return to form when winning at Carlisle in July. Again ran well when second of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, soft, 11/2) a week ago, clear of rest, so he could be thereabouts once more. Back in good form last month and is 3lb ahead of the handicapper; good chance.
4	7 4th (7) (8.5/1 +15%) Bay Of Hope		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(7) Bay Of Hope 8.5/1, Off the mark at Redcar in June and ran at least as well upped in grade when third of 11 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft, 33/1) 24 days ago. More needed as he drops back in trip. In good form form 7f this summer; still low mileage; claims if handling drop back in trip.
5th	3 5th (3) (1.38/1 +59%) Thornaby Pearl		1.38 1.38/1(+59%)																															(3) Thornaby Pearl 1.38/1, After a promising return, produced a career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 13/8) 12 days ago, helping force pace before going clear over 1f out. Not taken lightly. Back in prime form with emphatic win on soft ground at Ripon last month; up 6lb.
6th	8 6th (8) (66/1 -32%) Strength 'n Honour		66 66/1(-32%)																															(8) Strength 'n Honour 66/1, Failed to build on his previous effort when well-beaten last of 7 to Thornaby Pearl in handicap at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 33/1) 12 days ago. Others preferred. Hasn't shown a great deal for new stable this season; the one with most to prove here.

LTO Selection:

---

Trabajo Detecho has a good record over this trip with three wins, two at Newcastle and one at Hamilton last time, but he was all out that day to score narrowly, so a 3lb rise will make life tougher. Impeller is due to go up 3lb in future after his recent second, which brings him into the equation, but MOMAER is preferred. An easy winer at Leicester last month, she has been put up 9lb for that but with only the five career starts to her name, there may be improvement to come.

Having her first try at 6f, MOMAER resumed her progress when making all in dominant fashion at Leicester last month, so she looks capable of following up with more still to offer as a sprinter. Thornaby Pearl also arrives on the back of an easy win on his latest outing and is feared most, ahead of Imperial Dream.

The pick is IMPELLER, who is 3lb ahead of the handicapper after last week's clear second at Doncaster. Momaer is feared most.

1	1 1st (1) (0.73/1 +34%) Hercule Du Seuil		0.73 0.73/1(+34%)																															(1) Hercule Du Seuil 0.73/1, Promising type. Three wins from 4 runs last season. Career best when winning 4-runner minor event chase at Killarney (17f, good, 4/7) 13 days ago by 13 lengths from Solness, cruising clear. Thriving and he looks a very smart prospect. Prefers better ground and much more rain would be negative but the best horse in the race.
2	2 2nd (2) (33/1 -136%) Solness		33 33/1(-136%)																															(2) Solness 33/1, Useful chaser. Two wins from 4 runs last season. 13 lengths second of 4 to Hercule Du Seuil in minor event chase at Killarney (17f, good, 11/2) 13 days ago, no match for winner. Tongue strap back on but no obvious reason why he'll reverse the form. Twice a winner over fences but no match for Hercule De Seuil at Killarney.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/1 +8%) Ballyadam		6 6/1(+8%)																															(3) Ballyadam 6/1, Smart hurdler. Didn't need to improve on previous chase form to win 4-runner novice chase (evens) at Wexford (19.8f, good to soft) 27 days ago, driven out. Remains to be seen whether he can scale the same heights over fences. Well beaten by Hercule De Seuil at Ballinrobe; could get closer with the experience since.
4	8 4th (8) (33/1 +34%) Elle Perfecta		33 33/1(+34%)																															(8) Elle Perfecta 33/1, Fairly useful chaser. Career best when winning 7-runner novice chase (3/1) at Kilbeggan (19.4f, good to soft) on debut over fences 104 days ago, plenty in hand. This is a totally different assignment. Winning chase debut in a mares contest at Kilbeggan in April; much more needed here.
5th	9 5th (9) (4/1 +43%) Heia		4 4/1(+43%)																															(9) Heia 4/1, Promising type. Useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Career best when winning 5-runner novice chase at Tramore (15.4f, good, 2/7) on debut over fences 61 days ago, easily. Enters calculations with promise of more to come. Easy winner at Tramore in June; stable third-string here but unexposed and could run well.
6th	6 6th (6) (6.5/1 -30%) Tax For Max		6.5 6.5/1(-30%)																															(6) Tax For Max 6.5/1, Useful winner at 16f over hurdles. 13/8 and tongue strap on for, respectable second of 8 in minor event at Leopardstown (15f, good) 21 days ago, conceding first run. Made a winning chase debut prior to that and he's open to improvement over fences. Did enough to win on his chase debut at Wexford in June; needs plenty more here.
7th	5 7th (5) (33/1 -83%) Lieutenant Highway		33 33/1(-83%)																															(5) Lieutenant Highway 33/1, Useful chaser. Four wins from 6 runs last season. 11/8, career best when winning 3-runner novice chase at Roscommon (16.2f, good) 52 days ago, easily. In fine heart at present and slight step up in trip will help. Won well at Roscommon last time despite not being fluent early on; has to improve.
7	7 |PU| (7) (18/1 +28%) Choice Of Words		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Choice Of Words 18/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Didn't need to be at best when winning 7-runner novice chase (4/11) at Kilbeggan (19f, soft) 13 days ago, all out. This demands a lot more. New headgear combination tried today but needs to find plenty to be a factor here.

LTO Selection:

---

HERCULE DU SEUIL has convincingly beaten several of these rivals already and is hard to oppose. The Saddler Maker gelding was far too good for Ballyadam at Ballinrobe in May, with Lieutenant Highway further back in fourth, and his recent victory over Solness at Killarney was equally emphatic. He likes to get on with things and can again make all. Ballyadam showed the benefit of his first taste of chasing when winning at Wexford and is 4lb better off with the selection compared to their clash at Ballinrobe, but will find it hard to turn around the form. Killarney runner-up Solness has a 5lb pull at the weights with the selection and is fitted with a tongue-tie for the first time so may be able to get a bit closer without turning the tables. Fifth in last year's Galway Hurdle, Heia was an easy winner on chase debut at Tramore and can give a good account.

Willie Mullins has a very strong hand, particularly with HERCULE DU SEUIL and Heia. The latter receives a sex allowance and is clearly a promising mare but there's an air of star quality about the former, who will be tough to contain if he gets into his rhythm.

Whatever happens with the weather, it is very hard to see HERCULE DE SUEIL not completing the hat-trick

1	5 1st (5) (7/1 -27%) Desert Hero		7 7/1(-27%)																															(5) Desert Hero 7/1, Produced a smart performance when winning the traditionally very strong King George (Handicap) at Royal Ascot in June. Won on soft ground as a 2-y-o. Capable of making his presence felt at a higher level. Helped by leaders going too fast in handicap at Royal Ascot but markedly improved form too.
2	4 2nd (4) (3.5/1 +22%) Chesspiece		3.5 3.5/1(+22%)																															(4) Chesspiece 3.5/1, Made a winning handicap debut upped to 1½m at the York Dante meeting. Improved again when third to Gregory in the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (1¾m) before dropping back to 11f to win the Glasgow Stakes at Hamilton 13 days ago. Unlikely to be far away. Improvement every time; has some of the best form in this field and proven stamina.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/1 +0%) Canberra Legend		7 7/1(+0%)																															(3) Canberra Legend 7/1, AW debut winner in February. Took the jump up in class in his stride when following up in Feilden Stakes at Newmarket (9f, good to soft) in April. Disappointed in the Dante but straight back on track when fifth in the Hampton Court at Royal Ascot (1¼m, good to firm). Shapes as if he'll stay 1½m. Stuck to his task admirably when fifth in 1m2f Group 3 at Royal Ascot; worth a go at 1m4f.
4	1 4th (1) (3/1 +40%) Artistic Star		3 3/1(+40%)																															(1) Artistic Star 3/1, Won his first 2 starts (both softer than good). Improved again when seventh in the Derby at Epsom and creditable 6 lengths third in the King Edward at Royal Ascot since. That underlines he needs a bit more to come out on top at pattern level but it's still early days after only 4 starts. 11l seventh in the Derby and always-prominent 3rd of six in King Edward VII at Royal Ascot.
5th	2 5th (2) (28/1 -40%) Burdett Road		28 28/1(-40%)																															(2) Burdett Road 28/1, Big improver in handicaps since stepped back up to 1¼m, winning easily at Newbury and following up in the Golden Gates at Royal Ascot. More will be needed here and the trip and likely ground are unknowns. Won 1m2f handicap at Royal Ascot; this demands a fair bit more and 1m4f not sure to suit.
6th	6 6th (6) (1.75/1 -7%) Espionage		1.75 1.75/1(-7%)																															(6) Espionage 1.75/1, Went down only narrowly in a Group 1 in France (heavy ground) on his final 2-y-o start and made a winning return to action in 1½m Roscommon listed race (good to soft) last month. Looks capable of better again and the one to beat. Head 2nd in French Group 1 (1m, heavy) in October; satisfactory 11.7f Listed win on return.

LTO Selection:

---

This is a higher calibre of race than the Listed contest won by CHESSPIECE at Hamilton, but his previous third in the Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot was a solid statement of intent and he is a highly appealing candidate. The son of Nathaniel has already proven that stamina is his forte and, with ground conditions likely to suit, a big run is expected. Espionage commands respect as Aidan O'Brien's sole representative, while Artistic Star has posted high-class form in defeat and is dangerous to underestimate.

Deep ground won't be an issue for ESPIONAGE after going close in a French Group 1 in the mud on his final 2-y-o start. He showed he's trained on with a listed success on his Roscommon reappearance and can provide Aidan O'Brien with a third win in this since 2015. Chesspiece, Desert Hero and Canberra Legend can give the selection most to do in that order.

None are comfortably dismissed but slight preference is for CANBERRA LEGEND and Espionage is feared most ahead of Chesspiece.

Didn't jump with fluency but still made a sound start to his hurdle career when third of 11 over C&D 18 days ago. Cheekpieces refitted. Might hurdle better with that experience behind him.

4	3 4th (3) (22/1 -38%) Logistical		22 22/1(-38%)																															(3) Logistical 22/1, Fair maiden on the Flat for Andrew Balding. Only modest form in his 2 juvenile hurdles for new connections but it's still early days. Well held in both hurdle starts, the latest after wind surgery.
5th	8 5th (8) (14/1 -17%) Sunrise Boy		14 14/1(-17%)																															(8) Sunrise Boy 14/1, Modest maiden on the Flat who went backwards from hurdling debut when pulled up over C&D 18 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Excuse when pulled up over C&D last month but others still preferred.
6th	6 6th (6) (12/1 +0%) Secret Sauce		12 12/1(+0%)																															(6) Secret Sauce 12/1, Fair performer on the Flat in Ireland, winning a 1m Gowran claimer in May. 14/1, didn't get beyond the first at Newton Abbot recently so this is effectively his hurdle debut. Irish Flat winner in May but unseated at the first on recent Newton Abbot hurdle debut.
7th	12 7th (12) (9/1 +10%) Saisissante		9 9/1(+10%)																															(12) Saisissante 9/1, Fairly useful Flat winner at up to 1¼m in France. Underperformed on yard debut at Newmarket last month but has to be of interest on first crack at hurdling here. Four French Flat wins; well beaten only British start; some appeal on hurdle debut.
8th	4 8th (4) (12/1 -100%) Ramz		12 12/1(-100%)																															(4) Ramz 12/1, Fair maiden handicapper on Flat (stays 9.5f) for Alice Haynes. Respected on hurdle debut for an in-form trainer/jockey combination. Rather disappointing Flat maiden; joined good yard for hurdling; bit to prove.
9th	5 9th (5) (33/1 -230%) Red Fort		33 33/1(-230%)																															(5) Red Fort 33/1, Modest maiden on the Flat, reaching the frame in handicaps on his last 2 outings. Hurdle debut. Moderate Flat maiden; enough to prove on hurdle debut; tongue-strap on.
10th	7 10th (7) (40/1 -100%) Steven Seagull		40 40/1(-100%)																															(7) Steven Seagull 40/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Doesn't make obvious appeal now switching to hurdles. Modest Flat maiden; stays well; needs improvement on hurdle debut.
11th	9 11th (9) (125/1 -150%) Texas Boy		125 125/1(-150%)																															(9) Texas Boy 125/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Probably best watched now hurdling. Flat maiden and British efforts have been very modest.
10	10 |PU| (10) (125/1 -150%) Lady Bianca		125 125/1(-150%)																															(10) Lady Bianca 125/1, Modest maiden on the Flat for Jamie Osborne. Sports a first-time tongue tie now hurdling for a new stable. Placed once on AW; bought last month for 3,000gns; stable/hurdle debut.

LTO Selection:

---

Not much form on offer here with plenty of unexposed sorts so the market may prove informative. However, there was clearly plenty expected of CITY OF RUINS when finishing third, having been sent off favourite, at Hexham on debut in June and he may be worth another chance. Gifted Angel is another who shaped well enough on his hurdling debut when filling the same position as the selection over C&D last month. Any market confidence behind Ramz, who makes his debut for Olly Murphy, would be significant.

GIFTED ANGEL translated his fair Flat ability to hurdles at the first time of asking when third over C&D 18 days ago and a repeat of that form might be good enough here. Sassissante and Ramz are interesting recruits from the Flat, while City of Ruins hails from a good stable and may step up on his opening Hexham third.

The hurdling experience of GIFTED ANGEL may enable him to win this.

1	5 1st (5) (0.62/1 +59%) Three Yorkshiremen		0.62 0.62/1(+59%)																															(5) Three Yorkshiremen 0.62/1, Fair maiden who wasn't disgraced when seventh of 13 in handicap (14/1) at York (10.2f, good) 20 days ago. Leading claims back in novice company. Exposed after nine runs but is pretty consistent, and has a good chance on the figures.
2	1 2nd (1) (28/1 -12%) Atlantic Dream		28 28/1(-12%)																															(1) Atlantic Dream 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in maiden at Chelmsford City (8f, 22/1) 9 days ago. Has lots to find on form. Positives can be drawn from his first two runs but he may still be a work in progress.
3	6 3rd (6) (80/1 -100%) Hawk Jet		80 80/1(-100%)																															(6) Hawk Jet 80/1, Fifth of 7 in maiden at Yarmouth (8f, good, 33/1) on debut 22 days ago. Needs to build on it. 33-1, displayed only minor promise when fifth of seven on debut at Yarmouth (1m).
4	4 4th (4) (6/1 -50%) Rogue Soldier		6 6/1(-50%)																															(4) Rogue Soldier 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 6/1, third of 8 in maiden at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 54 days ago, running on. Not discounted. Third in 7.4f Beverley maiden on turf debut in June; does not have much to find.
5th	3 5th (3) (3/1 -67%) Knights Affair		3 3/1(-67%)																															(3) Knights Affair 3/1, 20/1, second of 4 in maiden at Ripon (8f, good) on debut 24 days ago. Can build on it now so needs considering. Very respectable second of four behind 1-8 favourite on last month's debut.
6th	7 6th (7) (11/1 +0%) Sheehan		11 11/1(+0%)																															(7) Sheehan 11/1, Muhaarar filly. Closely related to 5f winner For Peat's Sake and half-sister to smart 1¼m winner Peace Man. Much respected newcomer, especially if the market vibes are positive. Out of a well-connected mare and does not have a daunting standard to reach on debut.

LTO Selection:

---

Rogue Soldier has been running well without winning and wasn't beaten that far when third at Beverley last month. KNIGHTS AFFAIR almost pulled off a 20/1 shock at Ripon when keeping on into second after a slow start and, if he learns from that, he may go one better here. Three Yorkshiremen is also interesting as he's dropping back in trip after weakening over a mile and a quarter at Redcar and York.

Richard Fahey's THREE YORKSHIREMEN holds the clear edge on form and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to open his account back in novice grade. Knights Affair is much less exposed and could emerge as the chief threat if building on his debut Ripon second, although James Fanshawe's debutante Sheehan could have a say too if the market speaks in her favour.

Nine-race maiden THREE YORKSHIREMAN is not making any progress but has been found a good opportunity, and will be favoured by any rain.

LTO Selection:

---

A C&D winner on heavy ground in October, SAN AER was a fine fourth in the Irish Lincolnshire first time out this season. Not at his best in three starts since, he could well bounce back with conditions to suit. Inchturk was returning from a break when fourth at Killarney and is likely to be sharper with that run under his belt. He has form on easy ground. Cheers Again was hit hard by the handicapper for a couple of easy wins on the all-weather, but was only narrowly denied on testing ground at Cork in April and is 1lb lower now. He is another who has been a bit below par of late, but is capable of a bold bid if restored to his best. Trained by Galway native David Loughnane, Metabolt has been in good form across the water this season. He has won on good to soft, but would probably prefer a sounder surface.

NO MORE PORTER ran a cracker when second in the Premier Handicap here on Tuesday and will stand a good chance of going one better if showing up in the same form. Stablemate Spanish Tenor was also in action here on Tuesday, finishing a respectable fourth and can go well again. British raider Metabolt has a progressive profile and is also shortlisted along with John McConnell's Higher Kingdom.

PONT AUDEMAR won on the Flat in France on soft ground and he is fit from hurdling, so is selected.

1	2 1st (2) (9/1 +36%) Al Husn		9 9/1(+36%)																															(2) Al Husn 9/1, Smart filly who made it 6 wins in her last 7 starts when fending off a below-par Nashwa by ½ length in the Group 3 Hoppings at Newcastle (1¼m, AW) in June. Well worth her place at the highest level. Turned over below-form Nashwa last time; work to do on ratings but steadily progressive.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/1 +36%) Above The Curve		7 7/1(+36%)																															(1) Above The Curve 7/1, Group 1 winner at 3 and added another pattern success to her CV when seeing off last weekend's Prix Rothschild winner Mqse de Sevigne in Saint-Cloud Group 2 in May. Creditable 3¼ lengths third to Via Sistina in Pretty Polly at the Curragh (1¼m, good) since. Handles testing ground. Should run well. Dictated the pace for French Group 2 win in May; looks set for another prominent finish.
3	3 3rd (3) (2.75/1 -22%) Nashwa		2.75 2.75/1(-22%)																															(3) Nashwa 2.75/1, Won the Frenck Oaks and this race last summer. Back to form with a bang when an impressive 5-length winner of the Falmouth at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Acts on soft. Bold show looks assured. Won this last year; better than ever for 1m Group 1 win three weeks ago; sets the standard.
4	4 4th (4) (0.91/1 +0%) Blue Rose Cen		0.91 0.91/1(+0%)																															(4) Blue Rose Cen 0.91/1, Won the French 1000 Guineas in May and well suited by the step up to 1¼m when a 4-length winner of the French Oaks at Chantilly in June. The return to softer ground won't be an issue. Leading claims. The top filly or mare in France this season, with Classic wins over 1m and 10.5f.
5th	5 5th (5) (25/1 -14%) Caernarfon		25 25/1(-14%)																															(5) Caernarfon 25/1, Reached the frame in the 1000 Guineas and the Oaks on her first 2 outings this year. Respectable 3 lengths sixth of 16 to Waipiro in Hampton Court at Royal Ascot (1¼m) last time. Likeable filly who will be fine on the ground but looks sure to find a few too strong again. Best when 2l third in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to firm) where led briefly over 2f out.
6th	6 6th (6) (33/1 +0%) Never Ending Story		33 33/1(+0%)																															(6) Never Ending Story 33/1, Smart filly who chased home Blue Rose Cen in French Oaks at Chantilly but hasn't reproduced that form in the Pretty Polly and Falmouth since. Even a return to her best won't be good enough. Supporting roles in six Group 1s, including when 4l second to Blue Rose Cen at Chantilly.

LTO Selection:

Reigning champion Nashwa warmed up for the defence of her crown by bouncing back to form in the Falmouth, justifying the decision to supplement her and proving she has the speed for a mile. In BLUE ROSE CEN, though, she comes up against an exceptional French filly who backed up her cosy Poule d'Essai des Pouliches success when trouncing Never Ending Story to complete a Classic double in the Prix de Diane. Al Husn claimed the scalp of a probably below-par Nashwa at Newcastle but still warrants consideration, while Above The Curve will like the ground.

A much-anticipated clash between the last 2 French Oaks winners BLUE ROSE CEN and Nashwa. The former was having her first attempt at 1¼m when bolting up at Chantilly in June and can emulate Nashwa who followed up in this race last year. Nashwa looked better than ever when easily winning the Falmouth at Newmarket last month and is clear second pick ahead of Above The Curve.

The French 3yo star BLUE ROSE CEN may well be able to keep last year's winner Nashwa at bay.

1	9 1st (9) (1.1/1 +45%) Justshortofabubble		1.1 1.1/1(+45%)																															(9) Justshortofabubble 1.1/1, Long-standing maiden but he got back on track when edged out in 21f handicap chase at Newton Abbot 11 days ago. Merits consideration off a 2 lb higher mark here. Nearly justified strong support at Newton Abbot latest and leading claims on that.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/1 -71%) Dindin		6 6/1(-71%)																															(2) Dindin 6/1, Consistent this year, resuming winning ways at Stratford in June. Rare below-par fifth at Worcester since but he's the sort to bounce back. Fully exposed but won two starts ago and repeat of that gives him every chance.
3	5 3rd (5) (12/1 -9%) Humps And Bumps		12 12/1(-9%)																															(5) Humps And Bumps 12/1, Unreliable sort who is now 13 runs since his last win in 2021. Yet to hit top form for his new yard, having a wind op before fourth of 7 in handicap chase (20/1) at Hexham (24.2f, good) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on with more needed. Fourth at Hexham on return to chasing and that gives her a shout in this.
4	3 4th (3) (3.33/1 +26%) Conceal		3.33 3.33/1(+26%)																															(3) Conceal 3.33/1, Back on song after 12 weeks off when third of 7 in handicap chase over C&D (good) 18 days ago, fading only late on. Holds good claims off the same mark with that run under his belt. Leading claims on latest C&D third but wouldn't want the ground to turn soft.
5th	7 5th (7) (12/1 +0%) O'grady's Boy		12 12/1(+0%)																															(7) O'grady's Boy 12/1, Modest maiden hurdler/chaser at best who came in last of seven in 2m Souithwell selling hurdle last month. Hard to make a case for back in this sphere. Has ability but usually disappoints and maiden after 19 attempts.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 -29%) Dont Be Robin		18 18/1(-29%)																															(8) Dont Be Robin 18/1, Scored at Plumpton in 2021 but well held on all 3 outings so far in 2023, seventh of 9 in handicap chase here (19.4f, good) 18 days ago. Has lots to find from 5 lb out of the handicap. Unplaced since November 2021 win but dangerous to write him off here.
4	4 |PU| (4) (22/1 +33%) Galway Mahler		22 22/1(+33%)																															(4) Galway Mahler 22/1, Exceeded market expectations when fifth on Newbury hurdle debut last spring but has shown little since, including on chasing bow at Southwell 16 days ago. Visor is reached for now. Has been struggling in recent starts, the latest when pulled up on chasing debut; visor on.
1	1 |PU| (1) (33/1 -175%) Fanzio		33 33/1(-175%)																															(1) Fanzio 33/1, Ended time with Richard Hobson with success at Taunton in March but well beaten all 4 starts for this yard. Easy to look elsewhere. Tailed off in all four starts for this yard and nowhere near the force of old.
6	6 |PU| (6) (33/1 +0%) Auld Sod		33 33/1(+0%)																															(6) Auld Sod 33/1, Unreliable individual who has been pulled up in handicap chases at Fontwell and Southwell on his last two starts. Others are much more persuasive. Just 2-52 in career and has been pulled up in latest two starts.

LTO Selection:

Although he failed to justify favouritism at Newton Abbot 11 days ago, another chance can be given to the Grace Harris-trained JUSTSHORTOFABUBBLE to get is head in front for the first time. He was narrowly denied over a slightly shorter trip last time and the six-year-old appears the safest choice. Dindin was below par at Worcester last month but has been freshened up since, while Conceal, who was third over C&D last time, appeals most of the remainder.

CONCEAL made a promising return from a lay-off when third over C&D last month and can build on it here to resume winning ways in a handicap where a few arrive with question marks against them. Dindin wasn't at his best when fifth at Worcester but is a reliable type overall and could emerge as the chief threat ahead of in-form maiden Justshortofabubble.

After narrowly failing to land a gamble at Newton Abbot, JUSTSHORTOFABUBBLE can gain compensation.

1	4 1st (4) (10/1 -11%) Equion		10 10/1(-11%)																															(4) Equion 10/1, Off the mark at Wolverhampton in June and backed up that effort when third of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, soft, 12/1) 12 days ago. Going through a good spell at present. Backed up AW win in June with good run on soft turf last month; drop back in trip a plus.
2	7 2nd (7) (3/1 +14%) No Barrier		3 3/1(+14%)																															(7) No Barrier 3/1, In first-time blinkers dropped back in trip, bumped into an improver when second of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Can make his presence felt. Ran well in new blinker last month but is 0-10 now and may not be straightforward.
3	8 3rd (8) (2.5/1 +29%) Cariad		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(8) Cariad 2.5/1, After just 6 days off and back up in trip, quickly returned to form when second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (heavy, 11/2) 16 days ago. Leading contender. Runner-up twice over C&D off today's mark since fitted with cheekpieces in June; a player.
4	6 4th (6) (3.5/1 +46%) Chorus Line		3.5 3.5/1(+46%)																															(6) Chorus Line 3.5/1, After 7 months off, made a winning handicap debut at Leicester in May. However, below form when fourth of 6 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm, 5/1) 14 days ago. Engaged 8.02 Sandown Wednesday. Won on seasonal/handicap debut but two lesser efforts followed.
5th	2 5th (2) (5/1 +0%) Bobby Dassler		5 5/1(+0%)																															(2) Bobby Dassler 5/1, C&D winner in May. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ran well when second of 8 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, good, 11/4) 3 weeks ago, despite doing too much too soon. Enters calculations. Made all over C&D in May and won't mind what the weather does; can make bold bid.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 +44%) Mandega		14 14/1(+44%)																															(5) Mandega 14/1, Successful at Fontainebleau in March. Has yet to fire in 3 starts for his current yard, though, sixth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, soft, 28/1) a week ago. Has work to do. Three time winner in France but safely held all three starts for new stable this summer.

LTO Selection:

Only narrowly denied over C&D last month, CARIAD looks the one to side with off the same mark. She filled the runner-up spot on her third-last outing too, also over C&D, and George Scott's inmate is fancied to progress enough to get back in the winning groove. No Barrier lost little in defeat at Doncaster most recently and is feared most, while Bobby Dassler is another to bear in mind.

With cheekpieces applied, CARIAD has finished runner-up at this C&D on 2 of her last 3 starts, so George Scott's filly could be ready to return to winning ways this time around. She can see off the challenge of No Barrier, who ran well in first-time blinkers at Doncaster last month, while Bobby Dassler also merits consideration.

Three-time AW winner CARIAD shaped very much as though close to a breakthrough turf win when a close second over C&D last month.

1	5 1st (5) (12/1 +14%) Miramis		12 12/1(+14%)																															(5) Miramis 12/1, Fairly useful mare. 6/1, fifteenth of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 69 days ago. Trainer going well. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Poor run at the Curragh last time and needs to find improvement coming back after a break.
2	8 2nd (8) (2.5/1 +50%) Keep In Touch		2.5 2.5/1(+50%)																															(8) Keep In Touch 2.5/1, Useful filly. 10/1, respectable 4¾ lengths fourth of 8 to Caroline Street in Blue Wind Stakes at Naas (10f, good) 89 days ago. Trainer going well. Visor on 1st time. Needs considering. C&D winner last year; good run over 1m2f last time; visor could sharpen her up; player.
3	6 3rd (6) (3/1 +0%) Dandy Alys		3 3/1(+0%)																															(6) Dandy Alys 3/1, Useful filly. Good ½-length second of 10 to Vetiver in listed race (15/2) at Carlisle (6.9f, soft) 36 days ago. Stable in good form. Well in the mix. Back to form in a Listed event last time (7f; sft); yard in form; should give a bold show.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 -10%) Fast Tara		11 11/1(-10%)																															(7) Fast Tara 11/1, Fairly useful filly. Winner at Bellewstown in April. Good 4¾ lengths sixth of 11 to Indian Wish in listed race at Killarney (8.2f, good, 25/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. No forlorn hope. Has been found wanting in this company over further and needs to find improvement.
5th	10 5th (10) (18/1 +28%) Nightcliff		18 18/1(+28%)																															(10) Nightcliff 18/1, Fairly useful filly. Tongue strap on for 1st time, 8½ lengths thirteenth of 15 to The Antarctic in Lacken Stakes (80/1) at Naas (5.9f, good to firm) 74 days ago. Others more persuasive. Has questions to answer after two below-par efforts and back from a break.
6th	1 6th (1) (6/1 +40%) All Lies Ahead		6 6/1(+40%)																															(1) All Lies Ahead 6/1, Useful mare. Latest win at Leopardstown in April. Seventeenth of 20 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to soft, 6/1) 69 days ago. In the picture. Second in a 7f premier handicap at Cork; disappointed at the Curragh since; more needed.
7th	11 7th (11) (12/1 +52%) Pandora Lovegood		12 12/1(+52%)																															(11) Pandora Lovegood 12/1, Fairly useful filly. C&D winner. Off 10 months before fading fifth of 6 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Yard in good form. Can take a step forward. C&D winner last year ran well enough on return but will have to improve a fair bit.
8th	4 8th (4) (28/1 -56%) Maud Gonne Spirit		28 28/1(-56%)																															(4) Maud Gonne Spirit 28/1, Fairly useful mare. C&D winner. Last of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Cork (7f, heavy). Off 117 days with more needed. Well beaten in two handicaps this term and needs a career best to get involved.
9th	3 9th (3) (10/1 -100%) Honey Sweet		10 10/1(-100%)																															(3) Honey Sweet 10/1, Useful filly. Looked rusty after 10 months off on her first run since leaving Karl Burke when fourth of 7 in minor event at Naas (7f, soft) 8 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Stable is having good spell. Interesting. Listed winner in UK; not a bad debut for this yard but needs more; tongue-tie on.
10th	2 10th (2) (7.5/1 -7%) Celtic Crown		7.5 7.5/1(-7%)																															(2) Celtic Crown 7.5/1, Useful mare. Latest win at Leopardstown in July. Fourteenth of 18 in handicap at this course (8.6f, good to soft, 33/1) 2 days ago. Shortlist material on pick of form. Is ground versatile but stays 1m3f and will likely find this trip a bit short.

LTO Selection:

---

Third in a valuable sales contest at the Curragh last term, British raider DANDY ALYS ran by far the best race of her three-year-old campaign when runner-up in a Listed contest at Carlisle in late June. That track would have a few similarities to Galway, including a stiff finish, and the daughter of Dandy Man handles soft ground well. After a couple of runs over 1m2f, Keep In Touch drops back markedly in trip, with a visor fitted for the first time. A maiden winner over C&D last year, Dermot Weld's contender was beaten less than a length in two subsequent juvenile starts in stakes company. Honey Sweet was runner-up in last year's renewal of the race at Carlisle in which the selection was second this time around. After a lengthy layoff, she was fourth at Naas last week on stable debut for Joseph O'Brien and a tongue-tie is applied for the first time.

Little between the principals on form but HONEY SWEET is fancied to take a big step forward on her second run for Joseph O'Brien and resumed winning ways. Ralph Beckett's Carlisle listed runner-up Dandy Alys is feared most, with Keep In Touch appealing as the pick of the remainder.

Dandy Alys is a big danger for an in-form UK yard but preference is for KEEP IN TOUCH, who is a C&D winner.

1	3 1st (3) (14/1 -40%) Mission To Moon		14 14/1(-40%)																															(3) Mission To Moon 14/1, Half-brother to several winners but held back by inexperience on debut. Improved from that run when second at Kempton last month and ran filled that same position at Epsom (7f, good to firm) since. Makes handicap bow. Runner-up on last two starts; improvement needed but in good hands to continue to progress.
2	6 2nd (6) (28/1 -155%) Gamraan		28 28/1(-155%)																															(6) Gamraan 28/1, Much better for debut when third at Doncaster in June but failed to confirm that form back sprinting at Hamilton (6f, good) just under a fortnight ago. Step back up in trip a positive for this handicap debut. Close third at Doncaster on sole attempt at 7f and he's firmly in calculations.
3	12 3rd (12) (1.62/1 +35%) Gray's Inn		1.62 1.62/1(+35%)																															(12) Gray's Inn 1.62/1, Getting better with each run, adding to her tally when landing the odds on nursery bow at Chester last month. Not beaten far when fourth in listed company at Sandown (7f, soft) last week, and she's potentially very well treated back in a nursery. Listed fourth last Thursday and back in a handicap before new 17lb higher mark kicks in.
4	11 4th (11) (11/1 -10%) Phone Tag		11 11/1(-10%)																															(11) Phone Tag 11/1, Havana Grey colt who has shown fair form in a trio of starts so far. Blinkers go on for his handicap bow (also gelded) and he could have more to offer with Hollie Doyle taking over in the plate. Improvement needed on nursery debut but he's been gelded and wears first-time blinkers.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 +42%) Bits And Bobs		7 7/1(+42%)																															(2) Bits And Bobs 7/1, Made a winning debut at Leicester in June and ran well conceding weight all round when runner-up at Chester 11 days later. Flopped at Carlisle since and now upped in trip for his handicap debut with Murphy back on board. Plenty of promise on first two starts but disappointing at Carlisle last time.
6th	7 6th (7) (8/1 +11%) Lincoln Legacy		8 8/1(+11%)																															(7) Lincoln Legacy 8/1, Footstepsinthesand filly who made a winning debut at Kempton in May and ran to a similar level when third at Windsor (6f, good to soft) 3 weeks later. Step up in trip in her favour now sent handicapping and is 1 of 2 for this yard. Solid efforts on both starts and pedigree provides optimism she has more to offer.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -33%) Balon D'Or		16 16/1(-33%)																															(1) Balon D'Or 16/1, Bred to be sharp and certainly knew what was required when landing novice at Musselburgh on debut. Best effort since when runner-up in class 2 event at Epsom on Oaks Day but has found the company too hot in recent starts. Could make more impact now handicapping. Has failed to shine in Group 3 and Listed races the last twice and isn't progressing.
8th	14 8th (14) (22/1 +12%) Marroof		22 22/1(+12%)																															(14) Marroof 22/1, Finished third on his first couple of starts but failed to progress as expected for the longer trip when down the field at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) 9 weeks ago. Gelded ahead of this handicap debut and is 1 of 2 for this yard. Faded over 7f last time but gelded since and there's stamina on the dam's side.
9th	8 9th (8) (16/1 -14%) Count Palatine		16 16/1(-14%)																															(8) Count Palatine 16/1, Related to plenty of winners and promising start when fifth in novice company at Windsor. Matched rather than advanced her form on both subsequent outings, so will need to take a step forward now handicapping. Well-bred nursery newcomer; could benefit from the step back up in trip; possible improver.
10th	13 10th (13) (16/1 -14%) Conde		16 16/1(-14%)																															(13) Conde 16/1, Took another step forward when third at Chester (6.1f, soft) just under 3 weeks ago, headed entering straight having made most. Could have more to offer making the switch to handicap company. Has improved with each of his three runs and he's not ruled out on nursery debut.
11th	4 11th (4) (12/1 +14%) Doddie's Impact		12 12/1(+14%)																															(4) Doddie's Impact 12/1, Made winning start in 16-runner Brocklesby at Doncaster (5f, heavy) in April but not in same form having switched to Clive Cox when down the field at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Upped further in trip and could get back on track sent handicapping. Won the Brocklesby; disappointing on sole run since but slow ground may aid his cause.
12th	9 12th (9) (12/1 -20%) Macanudo		12 12/1(-20%)																															(9) Macanudo 12/1, Posted fair form all 4 starts thus far and runner-up on last 3 outings, again showing a tendency to lug left at Chelmsford (6f, 5/2) 9 days ago. Blinkers applied to help him concentrate and he's one to look out for on handicap bow. Back up in trip for nursery debut but pedigree provides hope he'll be okay; blinkers added.
13th	5 13th (5) (28/1 +0%) Sarakana		28 28/1(+0%)																															(5) Sarakana 28/1, Harzand filly who overcame inexperience to land a 6f Haydock novice in May, albeit able to race on the stand rail from a handy draw. Found the Albany way too much on her second outing and sights are significantly lowered. Flopped at Royal Ascot but could be a contender if tapping back into promise of debut win.

LTO Selection:

---

As is typically par for the course with these nurseries, many would appear to line up with solid claims. With that in mind, only a tentative vote can go to SARAKANA. Having belied odds of 40-1 to strike on her debut, the daughter of Harzand was pitched immediately into Group company. She came up well short in the Albany, but an opening mark of 79 could underestimate her. Balon D'or is interesting despite the burden of top weight, while others to note include Phone Tag, Lincoln Legacy and Gray's Inn, who is a whopping 17lb well-in compared to her revised rating.

The market will reveal plenty with lots starting out in handicaps, but GRAY'S INN wasn't beaten far when fourth in listed company at Sandown last week and, potentially very well treated back in a nursery, Jack Channon's filly is fancied to notch a third career success. Bits And Bobs flopped when sent off a short-priced favourite at Carlisle last month but can resume his progress reunited with Oisin Murphy, while Macanudo and Conde are another couple to consider.

Last week's Listed fourth GRAY'S INN (nap) runs before her new 17lb higher mark kicks in and she can take full advantage.

1	3 1st (3) (4.5/1 +10%) Pillar Of Steel		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(3) Pillar Of Steel 4.5/1, Prolific for John Spearing in 2021 and stepped up markedly on her opening effort for Henry Oliver when third at Market Rasen last month. Nudged up 2 lb but she can remain competitive.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +50%) Pop The Champagne		4 4/1(+50%)																															(6) Pop The Champagne 4/1, Bumper winner who was well placed to land 4-timer in novice hurdles at around 2m last summer. Fit from the Flat when third at Warwick in May and recent spin on the AW for new training partnership will have blown away the cobwebs.
3	2 3rd (2) (8/1 -23%) Addosh		8 8/1(-23%)																															(2) Addosh 8/1, Now 3 lb below her last winning mark and fitted with a tongue tie, she shaped quite well in a race that wasn't run to suit at Southwell in June. Jumping remains a concern but weighted to go very close.
4	5 4th (5) (11/1 -10%) Lady Reset		11 11/1(-10%)																															(5) Lady Reset 11/1, Likeable mare who resumed winning ways over C&D last summer and signed off last year with good second at Uttoxeter. Not in top form in both codes of late but assessor has cut her some slack.
5th	4 5th (4) (2/1 +50%) Aliomaana		2 2/1(+50%)																															(4) Aliomaana 2/1, Got back on track in a refitted hood after 4 months off when landing C&D mares' handicap in October and resumed winning ways back here 18 days ago. Another bold bid likely.
6th	7 6th (7) (16/1 -33%) Lucky Draw		16 16/1(-33%)																															(7) Lucky Draw 16/1, Fair on Flat and similar form over hurdles, shaping well when finding only one too good in 8-runner handicap at Market Rasen in June. Held back by mistakes at Southwell since. Hood omitted.
1	1 |U| (1) (5.5/1 -22%) Lunar Shadow		5.5 5.5/1(-22%)																															(1) Lunar Shadow 5.5/1, Fair Flat winner who won a brace of novice events against her own sex during the middle of 2022. Fit from a fairly productive spell on the level and return to 2m will suit.

LTO Selection:

---

ALIOMAANA showed tenacity when she added a second C&D win to her portfolio 18 days ago and, given that was arguably her best effort for a while, she is hard to oppose off just 2lb higher. Lucky Draw has adapted well to hurdles and is high on the shortlist in this company. Pillar Of Steel lurks on a handy mark and also looks a big threat, alongside Karannelle, who teams up with the in-form Sean Bowen.

ADDOSH can take the odd liberty over obstacles but she figures on a very tempting mark, so is awarded the tentative vote. Aliomaana can boast a good C&D record so she's a threat, along with Pillar of Steel.

Last month's C&D winner ALIOMAANA makes most appeal.

1	3 1st (3) (6/1 -33%) Damascus Steel		6 6/1(-33%)																															(3) Damascus Steel 6/1, Opened account at Windsor in May and probably should have followed up when second of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (10f, good, 13/2) 13 days ago, forced to switch over 1f out. Capable of getting involved. Denied clear run before going close at Pontefract last month and might still be improving.
2	9 2nd (9) (6/1 +67%) Macho Sun		6 6/1(+67%)																															(9) Macho Sun 6/1, Not discredited when fifth of 7 in handicap at this course (8.3f, heavy, 11/2) 13 days ago. Improvement required having her second try at this distance. On tempting mark judged on 8.3f second here in April but needs to better recent form.
3	11 3rd (11) (2.25/1 +25%) Fougere		2.25 2.25/1(+25%)																															(11) Fougere 2.25/1, Not seen to best effect when fifth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 12/1) 17 days ago, finishing with running left having met trouble. Remains early days but she could do with settling better. Second over C&D on handicap debut in May and met traffic when fifth at Windsor last time.
4	1 4th (1) (3.5/1 +42%) Lost In Time		3.5 3.5/1(+42%)																															(1) Lost In Time 3.5/1, Returned to winning ways at Yarmouth in July. After just 7 days off, raced keenly when seventh of 12 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Could bounce back with more still to offer at this trip. Not as good as he was but won in good style off reduced mark last month; considered.
5th	10 5th (10) (28/1 +44%) Brunello Breeze		28 28/1(+44%)																															(10) Brunello Breeze 28/1, Struggling for form this year, in first-time cheekpieces when seventh of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm, 16/1) 29 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Out of form over 6f/7f this season and out of the weights for second attempt at this trip.
6th	7 6th (7) (10/1 +17%) Night Life		10 10/1(+17%)																															(7) Night Life 10/1, Returned to a shorter trip/handicap company, back on track when third of 7 at Pontefract (10f, good, 12/1) 13 days ago. Task is now to build on her latest effort. Back in form with game third at Pontefract a fortnight ago; claims if in similar mood.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 +29%) Corsican Caper		10 10/1(+29%)																															(8) Corsican Caper 10/1, Failed to justify support (2/1) when tenth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Back down in trip on first run for yard after leaving Kevin Philippart De Foy. Needs to get back on the up. Ten-race maiden who starts off for new trainer with questions to answer.
8th	6 8th (6) (16/1 +11%) Rainbow Jet		16 16/1(+11%)																															(6) Rainbow Jet 16/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. 8/1, fell at the first in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good) 71 days ago. Finished well held when last seen on the level in October last year. Others preferred. Will be favoured by the forecast rain but this year's hurdling form is very uninspiring.
9th	5 9th (5) (10/1 +55%) Paisano		10 10/1(+55%)																															(5) Paisano 10/1, Fared no better in first-time visor when last of 8 on handicap debut (33/1) at Chester (12.3f, good) 33 days ago. Has enough to prove at present. Placed on last summer's 2yo debut but disappointing since; needs to turn a corner.

LTO Selection:

---

Even though he disappointed over an extended mile on the all-weather in May, a longer distance looks worth exploring with Born Ruler on his turf debut. However, he does have to shoulder joint top-weight, so preference is for DAMASCUS STEEL. The gelded son of Mastercraftsman only lost out by a short head at Pontefract last month when denied a clear run approaching the final furlong. Night Life also warrants a second look.

BORN RULER may have disappointed on his handicap debut in May, but he's bred to be suited by this longer trip and is worth another chance to progress having been gelded since last seen. He can get the better of Lost In Time, who remains lightly raced at this distance, with Damascus Steel completing the shortlist.

The pick is FOUGERE (nap), who kept on well for second behind a well-handicapped stablemate over C&D in May and met traffic last time.

1	8 1st (8) (5.5/1 +45%) The Big Doyen		5.5 5.5/1(+45%)																															(8) The Big Doyen 5.5/1, Useful hurdler. Very easily landed the odds in 17-runner novice hurdle at Tipperary (20f, good to soft) 28 days ag. This demands more but he can't be discounted. Easily won a weak Tipperary maiden last time over this trip; this is a lot tougher.
2	2 2nd (2) (4.5/1 -29%) What Path		4.5 4.5/1(-29%)																															(2) What Path 4.5/1, Promising type who posted a career best when winning 5-runner novice hurdle (6/5) at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good to soft) 60 days ago, comfortably. Looks competitive on form. Course bumper winner has won twice over hurdles at 3m; stable selected, so major respect.
3	11 3rd (11) (7/1 +0%) Pink In The Park		7 7/1(+0%)																															(11) Pink In The Park 7/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Career best when winning 6-runner minor event hurdle at Wexford (16.7f, good, 2/5) 43 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Barry Lyndon. Needs considering. Quality mare won well at Cork and Wexford but the forecast rain tempers enthusiasm.
4	6 4th (6) (4/1 +11%) Horantzau D'airy		4 4/1(+11%)																															(6) Horantzau D'airy 4/1, Useful hurdler who landed the odds in 16-runner novice hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good to soft) 72 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Expected to be bang there. Yard second-string; got off the mark at Punchestown last time and is on the short-list.
5th	4 5th (4) (25/1 -108%) Barry Lyndon		25 25/1(-108%)																															(4) Barry Lyndon 25/1, Twice-raced winner over hurdles. 1¼ lengths second of 6 to Pink In The Park in minor event hurdle (4/1) at Wexford (16.7f, good) 43 days ago, flattered by proximity. Up in trip. Likely to improve. Ran well trying to give weight to Pink In The Park at Wexford; steps up in trip.
6th	9 6th (9) (6.5/1 +41%) The Short Go		6.5 6.5/1(+41%)																															(9) The Short Go 6.5/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles who comfortably took 15-runner novice hurdle at Killarney (20f, good, 4/9) 80 days ago. Open to improvement and merits plenty of respect. Won a Killarney maiden over this trip in May; goes well fresh, so absence isn't a concern.
7th	3 7th (3) (33/1 -32%) All In Montmartre		33 33/1(-32%)																															(3) All In Montmartre 33/1, Tongue strap on, won 15-runner novice hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good, 20/1) on NH debut 46 days ago, pushed out. Should progress but he needs to here. Won a Downpatrick maiden hurdle on rules debut; this is a lot tougher; yard second-string.
5	5 |PU| (5) (2.12/1 +6%) Encanto Bruno		2.12 2.12/1(+6%)																															(5) Encanto Bruno 2.12/1, Highly promising sort. 1/2, career best when winning 12-runner novice hurdle at Bellewstown (16.8f, good) on hurdles bow 26 days ago, easily. Up in trip. Open to significant progress so he's a big player. Dual bumper winner won a Bellewstown maiden hurdle last time; soft ground may not be ideal.

LTO Selection:

---

WHAT PATH won his bumper around here and can land a hat-trick now over timber. Willie Mullins' six-year-old has gained both of his hurdle wins over three miles but shouldn't be too inconvenienced by dropping back in trip, with most of these races at Galway run at a good gallop. The standard is set by his stablemate Horantzau D'airy, who has a rating of 130. The French-bred easily justified his short price in maiden company at Punchestown in late May and had run well in competitive handicaps on his previous two outings. Encanto Bruno was impressive on his hurdling debut at Bellewstown, when a short price, and it will be interesting to see how he measures up now in this company.

Lots of potential on show, not least from John McConnell's ENCANTO BRUNO who created a highly favourable impression when going in on his hurdling debut at Bellewstown. This smart bumper winner can take a big step forward here and fend off the Willie Mullins-trained duo What Path and Horantzau d'Airy who both bring better form to the table and are hugely respected. Henry de Bromhead's The Short Go completes the shortlist in a fascinating contest.

As the choice of Paul Townend ahead of smart stablemates Pink In The Park and Horantzau D'Airy, WHAT PATH is hard to oppose

More exposed than some but clearly in great heart. 7f course winner who was second of 18 over C&D on Tuesday; could be bang there once more.
2	10 2nd (10) (28/1 +15%) Wildfell		28 28/1(+15%)																															(10) Wildfell 28/1, Highly progressive since joining this stable, completing the 4-timer with a degree of comfort in 11-runner handicap at Doncaster in June. Set a stiff task but excelled himself despite finishing last of 6 in listed company at Newmarket. Assessor reacted but hard to know his limit. May be flattered by bare Listed form and handicapper has reacted, but he's not ruled out.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/1 +0%) Man Of Eden		10 10/1(+0%)																															(9) Man Of Eden 10/1, Irish import who landed the odds on debut for this yard in a Newcastle maiden (1m) in January and has been shaping up well in handicaps of late, again conceding first run when a staying-on third at Haydock last month. Cheekpieces replace blinkers and big-field scenario will suit. Just one win from his 12 starts but running really well of late and he's one to consider.
4	12 4th (12) (16/1 +60%) John Chard Vc		16 16/1(+60%)																															(12) John Chard Vc 16/1, Fair 7f juvenile winner but hasn't yet hit the ground running this year, albeit 10.3f was too much of a teat at York. Others look better treated. The drop back in trip can help but others have less to prove on this season's evidence.
5th	2 5th (2) (10/1 -33%) Metal Merchant		10 10/1(-33%)																															(2) Metal Merchant 10/1, Useful performer who shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when fourteenth of 29 in in Britannia at Royal Ascot. Again better than the result back at that venue 3 weeks ago so he's not taken lightly. Some solid 1m handicap form this year (various ground) and Ryan Moore rides for first time.
6th	15 6th (15) (18/1 -80%) Spioradalta		18 18/1(-80%)																															(15) Spioradalta 18/1, Gambled on in re-fitted cheekpieces and confidence wasn't misplaced when adding to his tally at Chester 3 weeks ago. Up 2 lb in a deeper race but he's clearly in excellent heart. Two soft-ground wins this season and each-way claims if getting his conditions.
7th	3 7th (3) (8.5/1 +23%) Skysail		8.5 8.5/1(+23%)																															(3) Skysail 8.5/1, Showed much improved form in first-time blinkers when making a successful handicap debut at Goodwood (1m) on his reappearance. Proved a let-down at Salisbury but back on track in a change of headgear when runner-up at Ascot 3 weeks ago. Big field may help him settle. C&D winner who was a good second at Ascot last month and is respected.
8th	6 8th (6) (14/1 -75%) Sea Eagle		14 14/1(-75%)																															(6) Sea Eagle 14/1, Continued theme of race-by-race progress when landing 7-runner maiden at Chelmsford in October. Off since (gelded) but he's in top hands and is very likely to make a better 3-y-o. First run of the year but possesses plenty of potential for top yard.
9th	1 9th (1) (11/1 +8%) Glenfinnan		11 11/1(+8%)																															(1) Glenfinnan 11/1, Harry Angel colt who has improved with each start, signing off 2-y-o campaign with a maiden win at Yarmouth and offered plenty to work on when fourth fitted with a hood on last month's reappearance. More to come. Reappeared with promising 4th and this lightly raced type could build on that performance.
10th	14 10th (14) (10/1 +70%) Lunatick		10 10/1(+70%)																															(14) Lunatick 10/1, Yet to win a race but stuck to his task pretty well having raced freely when runner-up in maiden company at Bath. Eased 3 lb back in a handicap but big career best needed. 0-6 but has run just once on slow turf and he's well handicapped on that form.
11th	18 11th (18) (22/1 +12%) Merry Minister		22 22/1(+12%)																															(18) Merry Minister 22/1, Continued theme of race-by-race progress when landing 9-runner novice event at Thirsk (7f, soft) in June. Heavy defeat on handicap debut since and this mark looks too high. Disappointing on handicap debut at Ripon (1m2f), even taking a stamina excuse into account.
12th	5 12th (5) (22/1 +33%) Ottoman Prince		22 22/1(+33%)																															(5) Ottoman Prince 22/1, Sprung an 80/1 surprise on debut at Chelmsford (7f) in October and better form when runner-up under a penalty over the same C&D a month later. Workmanlike when landing the odds over 6f on reappearance and a shade disappointing switched to turf/handicaps at Pontefract. Two AW wins from first three starts but soundly beaten on turf/handicap debut.
13th	20 13th (20) (22/1 -38%) Dream Of Mischief		22 22/1(-38%)																															(20) Dream Of Mischief 22/1, Pulled hard a few times but more settled and advanced his form when landing 14-runner handicap at Windsor 3 weeks ago despite conceding fist run. Unexposed over 1m. Has C&D form, and an improving profile, and could be a contender.
14th	16 14th (16) (33/1 -50%) Naval Academy		33 33/1(-50%)																															(16) Naval Academy 33/1, Fairly useful performer, further improvement to win 10-runner maiden at Angers last time by length from Roi de l'Air, soon leading and setting sound pace. Has left H-F. Devin but joined a successful British yard. Not obviously well treated for British debut but there's potential in his pedigree.
15th	19 15th (19) (14/1 +13%) Cancan In The Rain		14 14/1(+13%)																															(19) Cancan In The Rain 14/1, Uncomplicated ride who was just about better than ever when winning 8-runner handicap at Newmarket (1m) last month, sticking to task. Reliable type but this is a much deeper race. Won at Newmarket in June; up in grade today but could continue to progress.
16th	17 16th (17) (40/1 -43%) Monopolise		40 40/1(-43%)																															(17) Monopolise 40/1, Ended 2022 on the up winning nurseries at Newmarket and Kempton and has returned in good heart, opening his account for the season in 7-runner handicap at Yarmouth (1m) last month. Seemed undone by revised mark in a better race at Ascot. Won at Yarmouth last month but soundly beaten since and needs to bounce back.
17th	11 17th (11) (5.5/1 +39%) Roarin' Success		5.5 5.5/1(+39%)																															(11) Roarin' Success 5.5/1, Improved with each of her 3 starts as a juvenile, getting the better of a subsequent winner at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in November. Picked up where she left off on handicap debut at Ascot 3 weeks ago and bold hat-trick bid looks on the cards. Reappeared with a win in Ascot handicap and this unexposed filly could have more to offer.

LTO Selection:

---

NOVUS appears right at home at Goodwood, winning here in May and then going very close on the first day of this meeting. She is two from two on soft ground and is preferred to Roarin' Success, who is on a hat-trick after ending her juvenile campaign with a Wolverhampton triumph and picking up where she left off at Ascot. The returning Sea Eagle must enter calculations on his first run in a handicap, while others to note include Cancan In The Rain, Merry Minister and Alpha Crucis.

A big-field handicap but the eye has to be drawn to ISLE OF JURA, who still looks at least one step ahead of the assessor following facile wins at Newbury at Newmarket last month. With the ground forecast to deteriorate, handling the conditions will be key, which brings Roarin' Success into the argument. Sea Eagle is the potential big improver in the race.

The withdrawal of Isle Of Jura may leave the door open for LUNATICK to get off the mark. Man Of Eden is second choice.

1	1 (1) (9/1 -50%) Admiral's Sunset		9 9/1(-50%)																															(1) Admiral's Sunset 9/1, Make a winning return over C&D in May and followed it with a good second. Latest effort was sub-par but he could get back on track. C&D winner in May; not at best latest; easing of the ground would be a negative.
1	2 1st (2) (1/1 +56%) Arcade Attraction		1 1/1(+56%)																															(2) Arcade Attraction 1/1, First run since leaving Evan Williams when 4/1, improved to win 9-runner handicap chase at this C&D (good) 18 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Atlantic Storm. Remains well treated on old form and should take all the beating if in the same mood. C&D winner on stable debut last month; up 7lb; handles softer ground; good claims.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/1 -80%) Atlantic Storm		9 9/1(-80%)																															(4) Atlantic Storm 9/1, Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Very good 1¾ lengths second of 9 to Arcade Attraction in handicap chase (10/1) at this C&D (good) 18 days ago. Can make presence felt again. Back to form with second to Arcade Attraction over C&D: up 5lb.
3	7 3rd (7) (5/1 -43%) Annie Nail		5 5/1(-43%)																															(7) Annie Nail 5/1, Has been reliable of late and posted another creditable effort when runner-up at Worcester a fortnight ago. Should give another good account for all that her mark seems about right. Consistent but looks exposed and best form has come on good ground.
4	5 4th (5) (3.6/1 +40%) Miladygrace		3.6 3.6/1(+40%)																															(5) Miladygrace 3.6/1, Made a positive start over fences last season but hasn't kicked on so far this term, only fourth at Newton Abbot last time. Others make more appeal. Not at her best in either start this season and may prefer going right-handed.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 -50%) Striking Out		12 12/1(-50%)																															(3) Striking Out 12/1, Fair at best but has lost his way and there's been no encouragement on either outing this term. Out of sorts in recent starts but could bounce back over more suitable trip.
6th	6 6th (6) (18/1 +64%) Noah's Light		18 18/1(+64%)																															(6) Noah's Light 18/1, Lightly-raced ex-Irish hurdles winner who has offered precious little for present connections, including on handicap debut at Newton Abbot 17 days ago. Up against it. Irish hurdle winner; little in this yard; well beaten on chasing debut latest.

LTO Selection:

---

ARCADE ATTRACTION responded kindly for Brian Hughes when the partnership registered a C&D success last month and more of the same is very possible, despite a 7lb higher mark. The selection has won off 5lb higher over fences in the past, so still has room to move from the revised rating. Annie Nail and Atlantic Storm are suggested as the pick of the opposition.

ARCADE ATTRACTION bounced back in no uncertain terms when making a successful start for this yard at the expense of Atlantic Storm over C&D recently and, with plenty of handicapping scope on old form, he's taken to follow up at the possible expense of his old rival. Annie Nail also merits plenty of respect.

Although recent efforts are uninspiring, STRIKING OUT has major claims on his efforts at the start of the year.

1	9 1st (9) (18/1 -13%) Her Way		18 18/1(-13%)																															(9) Her Way 18/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 9/1, again ran poorly when sixth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Mark drops into the 40s for the first time but needs to show more. Missed all of last year and has been hit and miss since returning.
2	8 2nd (8) (3.5/1 +30%) Oscar Doodle		3.5 3.5/1(+30%)																															(8) Oscar Doodle 3.5/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest at Chelmsford City in May. Helped by the way the race developed when fifth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 34 days ago, merely closing up late. Stayed on for fifth over C&D last time without threatening to have a serious say.
3	12 3rd (12) (6.5/1 +19%) Ana Emaraaty		6.5 6.5/1(+19%)																															(12) Ana Emaraaty 6.5/1, Blinkered for 1st time, ran best race upped markedly in trip when seventh of 12 in handicap (6/1) at Hamilton (11.1f, soft) 19 days ago. Makes all-weather debut. No worse for the application of blinkers at Hamilton (1m3f) but was only seventh of 12.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 +21%) International Law		11 11/1(+21%)																															(7) International Law 11/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 43 days ago, weakening from 2f out. Sliding back down in the weights so not ruled out. His last seven wins have been on Tapeta but his recent efforts unconvincing.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 -17%) Hot Team		7 7/1(-17%)																															(2) Hot Team 7/1, Won this corresponding event last year, latest victory was at Hamilton in May. 10/1, wasted no time getting back on track when third of 8 in handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good to firm) 7 weeks ago. Can give another good account. Has won on the AW (1-16) but far more effective on the grass; can still have a say.
6th	1 6th (1) (11/1 -10%) Great Colaci		11 11/1(-10%)																															(1) Great Colaci 11/1, 7-time course winner. 12/1, last of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (13.1f, good to soft) 5 weeks ago. Down in trip and can't be discounted back at this venue. Won't mind returning here but getting long in the tooth now and has top weight.
7th	5 7th (5) (16/1 +20%) Rumnotred		16 16/1(+20%)																															(5) Rumnotred 16/1, Followed a good run with a below-par one when eighth of 12 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, soft, 22/1) 19 days ago. Mark continues to tumble and needs to bounce back returned to all-weather. Regressive maiden; best efforts have been over shorter and this trip seems to find him out.
8th	3 8th (3) (33/1 +34%) Wheal Kitty		33 33/1(+34%)																															(3) Wheal Kitty 33/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, 28/1) 5 days ago. Back up in trip. Easy enough to look elsewhere. The wheels have come off since finishing close up at Musselburgh in May.
9th	6 9th (6) (8.5/1 -21%) Alhabor		8.5 8.5/1(-21%)																															(6) Alhabor 8.5/1, Had little luck in running once more when fifth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy, 12/1) 13 days ago, plugging on after hampered and shuffled back 2f out. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has good chance on pick of form. First run in blinkers was encouraging so perhaps a change of headgear will help.
10th	4 10th (4) (5.5/1 -10%) We Still Believe		5.5 5.5/1(-10%)																															(4) We Still Believe 5.5/1, C&D winner in March. 28/1, shaped as if amiss when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Modest on the Flat, respectable on last outing. Dual winner here and running well before pulling up over hurdles last month.
11th	10 11th (10) (12/1 -85%) Petite Sioux		12 12/1(-85%)																															(10) Petite Sioux 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, seemed stretched by the longer trip when sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 16/1) in May. Poor so far, including when stepped up from 1m to 1m4f on AW handicap debut.
12th	11 12th (11) (16/1 -33%) Miss Raindrop		16 16/1(-33%)																															(11) Miss Raindrop 16/1, 20/1, creditable fifth of 11 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, good to firm) 29 days ago, having to weave way through after not clear run over 2f out. Down in trip. No wins in eight and never closer than 6l, including handicaps from 1m1f to 1m6f.

LTO Selection:

---

Having landed the corresponding event from a 1lb higher mark 12 months ago, HOT TEAM is fancied to repeat the dose. The gelded son of Zoffany has been in fine fettle recently and that could give him an edge over some out-of-form rivals. We Still Believe appeals as one of the more likely challengers, while dual course winner Oscar Doodle heads the remainder.

A low-key start to proceedings in which ALHABOR is selected to make just his second outing on the all-weather a winning one having again had little luck in running at Nottingham last month. Cheekpieces replace the usual blinkers, and he can get the better of International Law, who continues to slide in the weights. Last year's winner Hot Team and Ana Emaraaty round off the shortlist.

The 5yo WE STILL BELIEVE pulled up over hurdles last time but was running well on the Flat prior to that. He looks the safest option.

1	11 1st (11) (1.25/1 +50%) Manxman		1.25 1.25/1(+50%)																															(11) Manxman 1.25/1, Winning handicap debut at Windsor (11.5f) in July. Creditable third of 7 when stepped up to 1¾m at Wolverhampton since. Has a bit of a lazy streak in him and may benefit from today's first-time headgear. Very much the unexposed one now stepping up to 2m. Comfortable winner on handicap debut but raced lazily when third last time; visored here.
2	12 2nd (12) (12/1 -50%) Cantalupo Bella		12 12/1(-50%)																															(12) Cantalupo Bella 12/1, 11/1, good fourth of 12 in handicap at Hamilton (11f, soft) 19 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Looks competitive on form. Twice made the frame last month (1m4f/1m2f); a possible if this new trip suits.
3	8 3rd (8) (6.5/1 +28%) Tarbat Ness		6.5 6.5/1(+28%)																															(8) Tarbat Ness 6.5/1, Raced too freely when last of 8 at Newbury (2m, good to soft, 13/2) 7 days ago but is more than capable of going close from this mark if bouncing back to his best. Placed three times in spring but form has dipped lately and he's now 0-13.
4	1 4th (1) (10/1 -11%) Wannabe Brave		10 10/1(-11%)																															(1) Wannabe Brave 10/1, Respectable 4¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Dereham in handicap at Newmarket (2m, good, 12/1) 35 days ago, not ideally placed. Pretty consistent this season and continues to edge down the weights; probably in the mix.
5th	4 5th (4) (16/1 -33%) Sophar Sogood		16 16/1(-33%)																															(4) Sophar Sogood 16/1, 4/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Chester (12.5f, heavy) 19 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Enters calculations. Respectable fourth over 1m4f last month and ought to be better suited by today's trip.
6th	6 6th (6) (10/1 -54%) Team Endeavour		10 10/1(-54%)																															(6) Team Endeavour 10/1, Improved to get off the mark in 7-runner handicap at Wetherby (2m, good to firm, 11/1) 51 days ago, benefiting from the longer trip. Unexposed as a stayer. Narrow winner when upped to 2m in June, his third handicap; further progress possible.
7th	3 7th (3) (3/1 +60%) A Tickatickatiming		3 3/1(+60%)																															(3) A Tickatickatiming 3/1, Bumper winner. Modest form in 3 Flat runs but much more chance now handicapping as a low level. Interesting runner. Bumper winner; safely held all three Flat runs but in calmer waters for handicap debut.
8th	13 8th (13) (125/1 -150%) Wilpena Pound		125 125/1(-150%)																															(13) Wilpena Pound 125/1, Little form. First-time cheekpieces (replacing visor) need to spark improvement. Has struggled on all three stable starts; up in trip with new headgear tried.
9th	10 9th (10) (66/1 -136%) Guilty Party		66 66/1(-136%)																															(10) Guilty Party 66/1, 10/1, 13¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Zillion in handicap at Chepstow (2m, good to soft) 24 days ago. First-time blinkers replace visor. 11-race maiden who needs a good boost from today's headgear switch.
10th	14 10th (14) (25/1 +24%) Knights Spear		25 25/1(+24%)																															(14) Knights Spear 25/1, Blinkered first time (retained), good fourth of 11 in handicap (50/1) at Thirsk (1¾m, good to firm) 29 days ago. Tongue strap for first time. Ran okay in first-time blinkers last month but needs to find extra here; tongue-tie added.

LTO Selection:

MANXMAN didn't have the most straightforward of passages through the race when attempting to supplement a Windsor success at Wolverhampton, but he still managed to take third spot. He did his best work at the finish so the rise from 1m6f is in his favour, as is the application of a visor. Last-time-out winners Team Endeavour and Zillion complete the shortlist.

If first-time headgear sharpens up MANXMAN then he might take a bit of stopping against largely much more exposed opposition. Team Endeavour was tackling 2m for the first time when successful at Wetherby last time and is second choice ahead of fellow last-time-out scorer Dereham. Handicap-newcomer A Tickatickatiming is also on the shortlist.

The veteran ZILLION won more comfortably than the narrow margin might suggest at Chepstow last month and can handle a 3lb rise.

1	1 (1) (28/1 -56%) Fils D'oudairies		28 28/1(-56%)																															(1) Fils D'oudairies 28/1, Career best when winning 13-runner Grimes Hurdle (18/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 28 days ago by 2¾ lengths from Sharjah, kept up to work. Clearly in top form but has no margin for error from this mark. Grimes Hurdle winner likely to be ridden positively and handles ground with plenty of ease.
1	6 1st (6) (4.5/1 -13%) Zarak The Brave		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(6) Zarak The Brave 4.5/1, French Flat recruit who improved another chunk when runner-up in Grade 1 Juvenile company at Punchestown in April. 12 lengths third of 10 to Gala Marceau in Prix Alain du Breil at Auteuil (19.4f, soft) 74 days ago was just a fair effort but the assessor may have underestimated him. Inexperienced sort for this hurly burly but talented and capable of contending.
2	2 2nd (2) (16/1 -14%) Jesse Evans		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) Jesse Evans 16/1, Didn't need to be at best when winning 8-runner minor event at Leopardstown (15f, good, 13/8) 21 days ago, always holding on. That will have put her spot on for another crack at this (hit the frame last 2 years). Last year's runner-up; two runs on the Flat to warm up for this winning last time; claims.
3	8 3rd (8) (7.5/1 +32%) My Mate Mozzie		7.5 7.5/1(+32%)																															(8) My Mate Mozzie 7.5/1, Could manage only mid-field in this last year but better than ever when third in a deep handicap at Listowel in September. Warmed up for this with a smooth win in maiden company on the level. Rain will not bother him and has a good 5lb claimer up; likely to be thereabouts.
4	14 4th (14) (14/1 +50%) Icare Allen		14 14/1(+50%)																															(14) Icare Allen 14/1, Respectable 10¼ lengths eighth of 13 to Fils D'oudairies in Grimes Hurdle (11/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 28 days ago. That was a sound return to action and the assessor has given him a chance. Largely disappointing last season; well beaten in the Grimes latest and others preferred.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 -71%) Filey Bay		12 12/1(-71%)																															(3) Filey Bay 12/1, Another very good advert for his shrewd yard, bagging handicaps at Doncaster/Wincanton prior to advancing his form to occupy a place in big-field spring handicaps. Flat spin should have blown away the cobwebs. Tongue tie back on. Major claims. Runner-up in the Betfair at Newbury and third in the County Hurdle; major contender.
6th	12 6th (12) (12/1 +25%) Mighty Tom		12 12/1(+25%)																															(12) Mighty Tom 12/1, C&D winner. 9/2, career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft) 81 days ago, suited by way race developed. Clearly in excellent order but this demands another jolt of progress. Impressive success in a Listed contest at Killarney in May; up 11lb for that but a player.
7th	10 7th (10) (16/1 -14%) Bialystok		16 16/1(-14%)																															(10) Bialystok 16/1, Talented Flat performer in France and ended the spring firmly on the up over hurdles, big career best when winning 18-runner handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft) 100 days ago, travelling strongly. Limit not yet reached. No run since April; not stable first-string but every chance that there is more to come.
8th	20 8th (20) (14/1 +13%) Tudor City		14 14/1(+13%)																															(20) Tudor City 14/1, First repeat winner of this race in 2022. Didn't need to improve to win 18-runner minor event (17/2) at the Curragh (12f, good) 34 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles and this likeable veteran will likely give it another good shot. 11-year-old going for his third win in this race; won the Apprentice Derby at the Curragh.
9th	19 9th (19) (40/1 +0%) Amir Kabir		40 40/1(+0%)																															(19) Amir Kabir 40/1, Had plenty of exposure on the level and won a maiden/novice over hurdles last year. Out of his depth when 25 lengths last of 5 to Impaire Et Passe in Champion Novices' Hurdle (50/1) at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) 97 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Outclassed in Punchestown Grade 1 latest; others preferred.
10th	18 10th (18) (12/1 -20%) Merlin Giant		12 12/1(-20%)																															(18) Merlin Giant 12/1, Maiden hurdle winner at this meeting last year who didn't need to improve to win 9-runner maiden at Down Royal (12.8f, good) 40 days ago, bit in hand. That should have put him spot on for this hurdles return. Back to form in a Flat maiden in cheekpieces at Down Royal latest; a big run very possible.
11th	5 11th (5) (14/1 -17%) Party Central		14 14/1(-17%)																															(5) Party Central 14/1, Disappointing on return to hurdling in May but back on track when winning 8-runner minor event on the level at Bellewstown (12.2f, good to soft, 4/6) 28 days ago by 3½ lengths from Jesse Evans, despite being slowly away. In top hands and revised mark does look fair. Beat Jesse Evans in a Bellewstown amateur contest; Elliott first-string; much respected.
12th	16 12th (16) (16/1 +0%) Captain Conby		16 16/1(+0%)																															(16) Captain Conby 16/1, Shaped quite well when sixth in the Coral Cup over 21f in March. 5 lengths seventh of 14 to Glan in maiden (22/1) at Roscommon (11.7f, good to soft) on Flat debut 30 days ago, not knocked about. Well-run 2m may suit him back over timber. Not a bad effort in a Flat maiden at Roscommon last month; each-way chance.
13th	9 13th (9) (28/1 +0%) Cash Back		28 28/1(+0%)																															(9) Cash Back 28/1, Smart chaser but just a respectable 4½ lengths third of 13 to Fils D'oudairies in Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good) 28 days ago. Back in a handicap. Likely to be ridden prominently but less likely to be thereabouts at the finish.
14th	4 14th (4) (40/1 -43%) Lucky Max		40 40/1(-43%)																															(4) Lucky Max 40/1, Backward step when 27 lengths fifteenth of 18 to Bialystok in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (16.4f, good to soft) 100 days ago. Blinkers reached for. No run since well beaten at Punchestown in April; blinkers tried here; others preferred.
23	23 |PU| (23) (4/1 +64%) Glan		4 4/1(+64%)																															(23) Glan 4/1, 9/2, career best when winning 14-runner maiden at Roscommon (11.7f, good to soft) on flat debut 30 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. RESERVE. Third reserve; fourth here last year and bang in form after wins at Listowel and Roscommon.
7	7 |PU| (7) (14/1 -75%) Brazil		14 14/1(-75%)																															(7) Brazil 14/1, 2022 Fred Winter winner so can clearly cope with the demands of a race like this. Tongue strap on for first time when eighth of 10 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 17 days ago, slowly away and that will have served a purpose. Cheekpieces reached for back hurdling. Encouraging return in a 1m Flat handicap at Killarney two weeks ago; owner's first choice.
13	13 |PU| (13) (18/1 +28%) Da Capo Glory		18 18/1(+28%)																															(13) Da Capo Glory 18/1, Latest win in hurdle at Punchestown in June. 25/1, good 5½ lengths fifth of 13 to Fils D'oudairies in Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good) 28 days ago. Well-run race over 2m will suit back in a handicap. Chance that he might find himself too far behind; soft ground won't bother him though.
15	15 |PU| (15) (33/1 -18%) Prairie Dancer		33 33/1(-18%)																															(15) Prairie Dancer 33/1, Three wins from 10 runs in a productive 2022/23 campaign. Third of 8 in novice chase at Ballinrobe (17f, good, 10/1) on debut over fences 66 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Blinkers back on. Out of form this year, including when tried over fences at Ballinrobe last time.
17	17 |PU| (17) (40/1 +20%) Gatsby Grey		40 40/1(+20%)																															(17) Gatsby Grey 40/1, Failed to win last term and looked short of gears when 7 lengths fifth of 8 to Jesse Evans in minor event at Leopardstown (15f, good) 21 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles and this test may also be too sharp. Consistent performer; up against it here a little bit but unlikely to be disgraced.

LTO Selection:

---

Perugino Diamond was the last four-year-old to win this, back in 2000, but ZARAK THE BRAVE looks to have strong claims. Willie Mullins' charge kept top company in juvenile hurdles last season, chasing home the brilliant Lossiemouth on a couple of occasions and also finishing third in Grade 1 company in France. A mark of 145 looks lenient for the Zarak gelding, who could be a top-level hurdler in the making. Emmet Mullins has already made a mark this week and he saddles two. Filey Bay, third in the County Hurdle back in March, warmed up for this with a spin on the Flat at Roscommon and could be a big player. His stablemate Merlin Giant is another who has to be on the shortlist. He won his maiden hurdle over C&D last year and comes into this in form having won on the level at Down Royal in late June. Dual winner Tudor City is on the same mark as when successful 12 months ago and just scrapes into the field. He is sure to run his race again.

ZARAK THE BRAVE has had no exposure to the hustle and bustle of a big-field handicap like this but he was talented enough to finish runner-up in Grade 1 juvenile company in the spring and his mark could be lenient. We know a bit more about Filey Bay bit his limit may not have been reached, with Brazil another to take very seriously.

A sporting selection goes the way of MIGHTY TOM, much improved this year as he showed at Killarney last time, with a C&D win too

LTO Selection:

Get Jiggy With It made a short-priced favourite with previous experience pull out all the stops at Newmarket and a maiden looks a formality. However, the form of ORNELLAIA's debut third there a couple of days earlier was given a massive boost when the winner ran away with the Princess Margaret at Ascot last weekend, and Dominic Ffrench Davis' filly gets the nod. Classical Song was a 420,000-euro breeze-up purchase and has Ryan Moore on top, while Imperial Express is a half-sister to Ebro River so is another newcomer to note.

ORNELLAIA is well entered up and she duly produced a promising first effort when third at Newmarket. That form has taken a significant boost since so she gets the vote over Get Jiggy With It, who emerged best of the newcomers when second at Newmarket. Shadan Joy is worth another chance to build on her debut, while Classical Song makes the most appeal of the newcomers given how much she fetched at the Breeze-Ups.

The top form players are two fillies who showed promise at Newmarket's July festival, namely ORNELLAIA and Get Jiggy With It.

1	7 1st (7) (10/1 +0%) Hunting Percival		10 10/1(+0%)																															(7) Hunting Percival 10/1, Course winner but he was tried in a hood when pulled up in handicap chase at Newton Abbot (25.8f, good) 3 days ago. Headgear is dispensed with but switches to hurdles with something to prove. Won here last month; pulled up over hurdles latest and soft ground would be a concern.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +0%) Mr Yeats		4 4/1(+0%)																															(6) Mr Yeats 4/1, Won a trio of handicap hurdles last season and has returned in good form, second in 23f Uttoxeter handicap 15 days ago. Should go well again from an unchanged mark. Consistent and should run well but others may be better handicapped.
3	3 3rd (3) (8.5/1 -21%) Isthebaropen		8.5 8.5/1(-21%)																															(3) Isthebaropen 8.5/1, Course winner but he has been off for 9 months since turning in a rare poor effort in 3m handicap hurdle at Aintree. Has won when fresh though so he can't be dismissed. Absent since last October and all her wins gained on good ground.
4	4 4th (4) (2.5/1 +0%) Gentleman Valley		2.5 2.5/1(+0%)																															(4) Gentleman Valley 2.5/1, Is going from strength to strength and completed a hat-trick in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 29 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so he has to be taken seriously despite another 6 lb rise. Completed hat-trick with career-best effort at Worcester and could continue the good work.
5th	5 5th (5) (6.5/1 +7%) Hoganville		6.5 6.5/1(+7%)																															(5) Hoganville 6.5/1, Has done well in handicap hurdles for this yard, scoring for a fourth time at Kelso (22.7f) in May. Good effort at Hexham since and in the mix here. All four wins with give in the ground and live contender given his record.
6th	1 6th (1) (2.25/1 +72%) Shantou Express		2.25 2.25/1(+72%)																															(1) Shantou Express 2.25/1, C&D winner in June who backed it up with a creditable third of 5 to Scarpia in handicap hurdle at Worcester (23f, good) 49 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Two C&D wins and fair third to Scarpia latest; may be too high in the weights now.

LTO Selection:

---

Scarpia edged a narrow verdict over 2m7f at Worcester last time out and might be suited by this sterner test of stamina. However, GENTLEMAN VALLEY was more convincing in winning his last three starts and Ben Pauling's gelding is capable of taking another step forward. Shantou Express needs to reverse the Worcester form with Scarpia, but stamina is assured following his C&D victory on his penultimate start and he is likely to be competitive once again.

GENTLEMAN VALLEY has a career-high mark to overcome but still can't be opposed on the back of an emphatic Worcester success as he bids to make it four wins in a row. The consistent Mr Yeats seems sure to have a say in his attempt to bag a first win of 2023, with game Worcester scorer Scarpia also in the picture in a competitive handicap.

This competitive contest can go to GENTLEMAN VALLEY (nap), who continues to improve.

Has to be taken seriously. Consistent on turf this term and has place possibilities returned to AW.
2	7 2nd (7) (3.2/1 +29%) Tafsir		3.2 3.2/1(+29%)																															(7) Tafsir 3.2/1, Belatedly off the mark at Musselburgh last month before following up in similar fashion under this rider at Hamilton (13.1f, good, 3/1) 13 days ago. Nudged up another 4 lb and having scored a shade cosily, she remains firmly of interest back on all-weather. Successful on turf under Paul Mulrennan the last twice; has form here; respected.
3	3 3rd (3) (4.5/1 +47%) Can Can Girl		4.5 4.5/1(+47%)																															(3) Can Can Girl 4.5/1, Temperamental sort. C&D winner. 7/1, backed up her reappearance effort despite not going with much zest when second of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good) 2 weeks ago. Visor back on. Return of regular visor looks a plus and she's a dual C&D winner; one to consider.
4	5 4th (5) (6.5/1 -44%) Fox Flame		6.5 6.5/1(-44%)																															(5) Fox Flame 6.5/1, Ran poorly under a change of tactics when last of 6 in handicap (25/1) at Epsom (12f, good) 3 weeks ago. Tough to support with much confidence after that. Has form figures of 43123 in AW handicaps; interesting back in this sphere.
5th	10 5th (10) (2.25/1 +10%) Eloped		2.25 2.25/1(+10%)																															(10) Eloped 2.25/1, Showed much improved form back on all-weather when second of 11 in maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 28/1) 6 weeks ago. Up in trip and is one to consider on handicap debut. May take another step forward now handicapping and upped in trip; appealing type.
6th	2 6th (2) (20/1 -43%) Bookmark		20 20/1(-43%)																															(2) Bookmark 20/1, 4/1, produced a laboured effort when fifth of 8 in handicap at Chester (12.3f, good) 47 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Case can be made if getting back to some of last year's form. 0-9 on AW but went close off this mark on last attempt in this sphere.
7th	8 7th (8) (22/1 -38%) Spiced Rum		22 22/1(-38%)																															(8) Spiced Rum 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in maiden at Carlisle (11.2f, good to soft, 66/1) 26 days ago, edging right entering final 1f. Makes handicap debut. Uphill task. Holds weak form claims but may be capable of improvement now handicapping.
8th	1 8th (1) (22/1 +12%) Kepala		22 22/1(+12%)																															(1) Kepala 22/1, 16/1, ran no sort of race on first run since leaving Eve Johnson Houghton when last of 6 in handicap at Ffos Las (10f, soft), very slowly away and taking little interest. Off 10 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Alexandra Dunn and this should reveal plenty. Absent since a dismal effort last September; market can guide on debut for new yard.
9th	9 9th (9) (40/1 -21%) Aljardaa		40 40/1(-21%)																															(9) Aljardaa 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Never dangerous eighth of 12 in handicap (22/1) at this course (10.2f) 43 days ago. Up in trip. Five-race maiden; penultimate effort offers hope for improvement.

LTO Selection:

---

Tafsir looks set to mount another stern challenge following consecutive victories at Musselburgh and Hamilton, but preference is for ELOPED. The Golden Horn filly took a marked step forward when finishing second at Chelmsford and she looks set to progress further now pitched into handicaps. Can Can Girl ought to be involved after occupying the runner-up berth at Hamilton, while Bookmark is just one more to consider.

TAFSIR has taken her form up a notch since being stepped up in trip so Jim Goldie's 4-y-o is fancied to bring up the hat-trick having scored a shade cosily at Hamilton just less than 2 weeks ago. Eloped showed much improved form back on all-weather when runner-up in June, so she could be the one to give the selection most to think about on handicap debut, ahead of Turner Girl and Can Can Girl.

With further progress entirely possible, ELOPED looks interesting on her handicap debut. Can Can Girl is second choice.

Improved on recent efforts to win 13-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good, 6/1) 48 days ago, digging deep. Should go well again.

Significantly back up in trip. Fair on the Flat, good on last Flat run. Consistent enough in defeat over hurdles and on Flat lately; needs more; reserve.
11th	17 11th (17) (33/1 -50%) Slaney Tide		33 33/1(-50%)																															(17) Slaney Tide 33/1, Winner at Naas in July. 22/1, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Down Royal (12.8f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Not completely dismissed. Got off the mark when winning at Naas but below that off this mark at Down Royal.
12th	5 12th (5) (40/1 +0%) Humanitarian		40 40/1(+0%)																															(5) Humanitarian 40/1, Quirky sort. Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. Twelfth of 18 in handicap at this course (8.6f, good to soft, 40/1) 2 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Hard to make a strong case for. Regressive on the Flat and was poor over hurdles last time; others preferred.
13th	11 13th (11) (14/1 -27%) Aghaboy		14 14/1(-27%)																															(11) Aghaboy 14/1, Well-beaten seventh of 11 to Lossiemouth in Knight Frank Juvenile Hurdle (66/1) at Leopardstown (16f, soft). Off 7 months. Has potential on his first Flat outing for current stable, so not one to write off. Dual hurdle winner is a maiden on Flat but has gone well on soft ground; not ignored.
14th	1 14th (1) (25/1 -108%) Butterfly Garden		25 25/1(-108%)																															(1) Butterfly Garden 25/1, 13/2, creditable fourth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (14.1f, good) 15 days ago. Should be on the premises again. Coming back to form lately and handles soft ground, so can be a player but tough draw.
15th	13 15th (13) (28/1 +15%) Sky Legend		28 28/1(+15%)																															(13) Sky Legend 28/1, Creditable eighth of 15 in handicap (33/1) at Killarney (14.1f, good) 15 days ago. Should strip fitter for that but others look better treated. Maiden ran well enough on return at Killarney but is unproven on soft ground.
16th	14 16th (14) (18/1 -157%) All In Peder		18 18/1(-157%)																															(14) All In Peder 18/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 10/3, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Tramore (16f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Down in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Merits consideration. Won handicaps at Gowran and Listowel; below form at Tramore since; best on good ground.
17th	16 17th (16) (125/1 -89%) Landue		125 125/1(-89%)																															(16) Landue 125/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2018. Last of 10 in handicap at Limerick (17f, good, 100/1) 41 days ago. Down in trip. Hooded for 1st time. Hard to fancy. One-time decent type was beaten a long way on Flat return and can't be fancied.
18th	15 18th (15) (80/1 -21%) Big Kitten		80 80/1(-21%)																															(15) Big Kitten 80/1, Twenty four runs since last win in 2018. Tenth of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Ballinrobe (12.8f, good) 38 days ago. Others make more appeal. Only wins came on AW in UK in 2018; hard to fancy on recent evidence.

Willie Mullins has a couple of interesting ones in this and AGHABOY may be worth a shot on his return to the Flat. The German-bred won twice over hurdles last season after joining Closutton before finding things a bit tougher up in grade behind illustrious stablemate Lossiemouth. He has been eased 6lb since last running on the Flat and could be on a lenient mark. Stoke The Fire ran a big race to finish second on his return from a long absence at Down Royal in late June and with that run under his belt, he is entitled to play a big part now. All In Peder commands respect given his connections and is fitted with first-time blinkers. He has already won twice this season.

STOKE THE FIRE was only denied by a well treated rival (who followed up) at Down Royal last time and, with the scope for better still, he's a confident choice to go one better. Granville Street and Out On Friday are two of the numerous dangers.

Just denied on his comeback at Down Royal, STOKE THE FIRE should be able to go one better off a 4lb higher mark.

1	6 1st (6) (1.38/1 +50%) Daphne May		1.38 1.38/1(+50%)																															(6) Daphne May 1.38/1, Already a three-time winner this year, latest here in July, and he posted another good effort when second of 8 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Well in the mix. In-form mare who scored here on penultimate start; still favourably treated; respected.
2	1 2nd (1) (6/1 +0%) Liseo		6 6/1(+0%)																															(1) Liseo 6/1, Remains a maiden but in good form until coming in last of 7 in handicap at Salisbury (12f) on soft ground 19 days ago. Cheekpieces replace visor now and not ruled out. Maiden; placed plenty of times, including both attempts in cheekpieces.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.5/1 +0%) Warhol		1.5 1.5/1(+0%)																															(3) Warhol 1.5/1, Got off the mark at Windsor in April and backed it up with an excellent second of 18 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good) 76 days ago, just failing. That form has worked out well so he's expected to be bang there. Unlucky at Newbury when last seen; major player if coping with drop back in trip.
4	7 4th (7) (9/1 +59%) Dotties Star		9 9/1(+59%)																															(7) Dotties Star 9/1, Fair maiden who wasn't disgraced when fourth of 5 in handicap over C&D (good to firm) 14 days ago. One for the shortlist off a falling mark. Failed to improve in C&D events the last twice and remains a maiden.
5th	5 5th (5) (40/1 -150%) Stopnsearch		40 40/1(-150%)																															(5) Stopnsearch 40/1, It's now 17 runs since his last win in 2021 and he came in last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 152 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with more required after a break. Absent for five months; has C&D form but has never won when fresh.

LTO Selection:

Warhol arrives in good form after his nose second at Newbury, but he has been upped 4lb for that and may find things happen too quickly for him dropping back in trip. He could run on into a place, but DAPHNE MAY is preferred. She has winning course form over further and has won over this trip elsewhere on a softer surface, while Anna Gibson claims a useflul 7lb from the saddle. Liseo is also noted.

None of these can be ruled out but WARHOL comes here on the back of an excellent Newbury second (form been franked) so edges the vote from in-form pair Wonder Starelzaam and Daphne May who can chase home George Baker's progressive 4-y-o in that order.

In-form mare DAPHNE MAY gets the vote. Warhol, assuming he copes with the return to 1m2f, is feared most.

1	3 1st (3) (4.5/1 +25%) Jm Jungle		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(3) Jm Jungle 4.5/1, Made the frame on his first 5 starts this season and gained reward for his consistency when winning at Haydock (5f) last time, leading final 100 yds. Likely to continue in good form and he can be thereabouts once again. Improving at 5f; good effort at the weights in June (good to soft); ready winner since.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/1 +50%) Lakota Blue		10 10/1(+50%)																															(6) Lakota Blue 10/1, Left his reappearance run behind when winning at Ripon (6f) in April, but hasn't found any further improvement since. Having a first attempt at 5f, faced a stiff task when down the field in listed race at Sandown when last seen in June. Others look stronger. Two good 6f efforts this year; faded over 5f in Listed latest; needs more back in handicap.
3	8 3rd (8) (8/1 +43%) Another Baar		8 8/1(+43%)																															(8) Another Baar 8/1, Well suited by the drop back to 5f when landing a third success of the campaign at Beverley in June. Ran well when third at Ripon and Newmarket on his next 2 starts, before possibly finding the race coming too soon at Hamilton last time. Could bounce back with visor on first time. Three wins this year, at 6f and 5f; others look better treated now; first-time visored.
4	9 4th (9) (16/1 -14%) Desert Games		16 16/1(-14%)																															(9) Desert Games 16/1, Maiden who has shown improved form fitted with a visor on his last 3 starts, again finishing runner-up when just failing at Beverley (5f) on his latest outing. Can give his running once more, with blinkers applied on first run for yard after leaving Richard Fahey. Went very close in all 3 handicaps for R Fahey; up 3lb since latest; debut for new yard.
5th	13 5th (13) (28/1 -40%) The Thames Boatman		28 28/1(-40%)																															(13) The Thames Boatman 28/1, Made a winning return at Wolverhampton (5f) in February and, barring a blip in a small-field at Yarmouth in June, has been running well since. He's a free-going type, though, and failed to settle any better in first-time hood at Newmarket last time. Blinkers now reached for. Has won at 6f and 5f on AW; capable but below best on last 2 starts; different headgear.
6th	2 6th (2) (4.5/1 +0%) Democracy Dilemma		4.5 4.5/1(+0%)																															(2) Democracy Dilemma 4.5/1, Has improved in handicaps this year with 3 victories (all at 5f), proving better than ever when making all at Chelmsford last month. Versatile with regards to ground (won on testing conditions at Thisk in April) and he could be up to defying an 8 lb rise in the weights. Raced clear back on AW latest (5f); up 8lb but can give it plenty from highest draw.
7th	11 7th (11) (8/1 +0%) Desperate Hero		8 8/1(+0%)																															(11) Desperate Hero 8/1, With cheekpieces applied, resumed winning ways in good style at Windsor (5f) in June and has continued in form since, producing a career best in defeat when headed in the dying strides at Yarmouth a week ago (Thunder Moor in third). Respected. Progressive at 5f in cheekpieces; due 2lb rise for 2nd at Yarmouth; likely to need better.
8th	12 8th (12) (8.5/1 -6%) Estate		8.5 8.5/1(-6%)																															(12) Estate 8.5/1, Opened account at the eighth attempt in handicap at Salisbury (5f) in May and quickly bounced back from a below-par effort when third at this C&D the following month. Got up close home when resuming winning ways at Windsor a month ago, but will need to find more upped in grade. Won 2 of his 5 handicaps at 5f (both on good to firm); the likely strong pace will suit.
9th	10 9th (10) (6.5/1 -95%) Holkham Bay		6.5 6.5/1(-95%)																															(10) Holkham Bay 6.5/1, Confirmed debut promise when successful at Lingfield (6f) last summer. After a year off, improved again making his turf debut when second in minor event at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, edged out only on the line. Not taken lightly as he drops in trip for his handicap bow. Front-runs at 6f; won final 2yo start and useful 2nd on return; interesting on drop to 5f.
10th	4 10th (4) (7/1 +22%) Thunder Moor		7 7/1(+22%)																															(4) Thunder Moor 7/1, Fairly useful 5f juvenile winner for Kevin Ryan and stepped up on his seasonal/stable debut when third in handicap at Yarmouth a week ago, refusing to lie down once headed. Could still have more to offer for his current yard so he merits consideration. Good effort against older sprinters last week (5f, good to soft); can improve further.
11th	5 11th (5) (14/1 +13%) Rogue Spirit		14 14/1(+13%)																															(5) Rogue Spirit 14/1, Useful performer at 2 yrs (winning 3 times) but yet to fire so far this season, dropped in grade when 6 lengths sixth of 7 to Democracy Dilemma in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) last time. Application of blinkers needs to spark a return to form. Three 2yo wins at 5f; struggling on turf and AW this year; first-time headgear fitted.

LTO Selection:

---

This is fiercely competitive and hardly any can confidently be ruled out. The likes of Rogue Spirit, Desert Games and The Thames Boatman are all open to improvement now they are tried with headgear applied and can do their bit to ensure this is a fast and furious affair - a scenario which will ideally suit DEMOCRACY DILEMMA, a pacey individual who seems to be thriving on being kept busy. Hollie Doyle keeps the partnership intact after guiding him to victory twice already this season and further success is distinctly possible.

DEMOCRACY DILEMMA proved better than ever when recording his third success of the year at Chelmsford last time, winning unchallenged having typically made the running, so he is taken to score again with both of his turf wins coming on ground softer than good. Desperate Hero also arrives in good form and is respected, while the consistent Jm Jungle is another to consider.

This looks likely to be run at a good clip and JM JUNGLE, in such good form of late, can continue on the upgrade.

1	6 1st (6) (6.5/1 +41%) Patontheback		6.5 6.5/1(+41%)																															(6) Patontheback 6.5/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 13 days ago. Merits consideration if shrugging off latest effort. Losing run mounting up but returning to 7f won't hurt and has form here.
2	7 2nd (7) (8/1 +11%) El Jad		8 8/1(+11%)																															(7) El Jad 8/1, Caught the eye on his second run back after an absence when fourth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 18/1) 9 days ago, doing too much too soon. Player off an unchanged mark in his bid for a maiden success. Fourth at Wolverhampton (8.6f) wasn't too shoddy but hasn't raced over 7f since debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (7.5/1 +17%) Mercurius Power		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(1) Mercurius Power 7.5/1, C&D winner. 12/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Has good chance on pick of form. Fourth here in March on his first run after wind surgery but has struggled since.
4	3 4th (3) (8.5/1 -55%) Saisons D'Or		8.5 8.5/1(-55%)																															(3) Saisons D'Or 8.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. Good third of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Ripon (8f, good) 24 days ago. Well in the mix. Multiple winner and best at 7f; placed in his last three runs (last two over 1m).
5th	5 5th (5) (6/1 +50%) Ibiza Rocks		6 6/1(+50%)																															(5) Ibiza Rocks 6/1, 10/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, tenth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7f, soft) 20 days ago. Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Started off okay for this yard, only to disappoint on his last three starts.
6th	10 6th (10) (7.5/1 +17%) Go Sing		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(10) Go Sing 7.5/1, Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (7f, firm, 18/5) 27 days ago. One for the shortlist. Respectable in Class 5s for this yard and this should be easier.
7th	8 7th (8) (80/1 -21%) Keep Me Stable		80 80/1(-21%)																															(8) Keep Me Stable 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Richard Hannon when last of 9 in handicap (80/1) at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Uphill task. Ex-Hannon; 80-1 and tailed off on handicap/stable debut at Carlisle.
8th	11 8th (11) (20/1 +0%) Billy McGarry		20 20/1(+0%)																															(11) Billy McGarry 20/1, Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, firm, 40/1) 27 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Can give another good account. Two fair runs for this yard and his past AW defeats were in non handicaps.
9th	14 9th (14) (3.5/1 +42%) My Roxanne		3.5 3.5/1(+42%)																															(14) My Roxanne 3.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in June. 11/2, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 17 days ago, slowly away. Ought to be in the shake-up. Continues to break slowly but it has not stopped her from racking up a good run of form.
10th	9 10th (9) (33/1 -230%) Star Map		33 33/1(-230%)																															(9) Star Map 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 11/2, last of 8 in maiden at Nottingham (5f, soft) 16 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Needs a couple of these to falter. Perhaps on a fair mark if rediscovering the form of her best maiden effort.
11th	2 11th (2) (9/1 +25%) Late Arrival		9 9/1(+25%)																															(2) Late Arrival 9/1, C&D winner. 6/1, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 31 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Unlucky not to be closer at Pontefract last time (6f); C&D winner; well worth considering.
12th	4 12th (4) (50/1 -52%) Castleberg Rock		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Castleberg Rock 50/1, Sixth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good, 150/1) 15 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Placed in his first two runs but few positives to take out of his three handicaps.
13th	13 13th (13) (40/1 +0%) Mai Alward		40 40/1(+0%)																															(13) Mai Alward 40/1, 150/1, last of 12 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 17 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Cheekpieces on for 1st time with work to do. Very quiet in three handicaps (6f-7f) for this yard and cheekpieces are now added.
14th	12 14th (12) (14/1 -155%) Howyoulikemenow		14 14/1(-155%)																															(12) Howyoulikemenow 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below-par sixth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 9/2) 30 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Early days and perhaps didn't take to Brighton last time.

LTO Selection:

---

MY ROXANNE has shown plenty on an artificial surface, including when successful over C&D from 3lb lower in June. She gets the nod back here following a good third at Ayr, although Saisons D'Or, who is well treated judged on past exploits, should give her plenty to think about. Star Map steps up in trip for her handicap bow and market support should be noted.

Lots with chances but EL JAD is taken to build on his promising Wolverhampton fourth and gain his breakthrough success at the chief expense of 3-time C&D winner Saisons d'Or. My Roxanne is another with winning form here who must enter calculations along with Go Sing and Billy McGarry.

A few with chances but GO SING has made a decent start for his new yard and drops into Class 6 company this time.

1	4 1st (4) (0.57/1 +43%) I Will Be Baie		0.57 0.57/1(+43%)																															(4) I Will Be Baie 0.57/1, Promising individual. Second of 15 in bumper at Punchestown (16.2f, good, 4/11) on NH debut 54 days ago, running on (first past the post but subsequently disqualified). Should be able to gain compensation here. Should be a lot less green here than at Punchestown and would appear to be the one to beat.
2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 +71%) Don'tstopthemusic		8 8/1(+71%)																															(3) Don'tstopthemusic 8/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 21 in novice hurdle (33/1) at Leopardstown (16f, soft) on NH debut. Off 7 months. Makes bumpers debut. Hooded for 1st time, tongue strap on for 1st time. Off since Christmas; bred to do better and could be interesting; tongue-tie added.
3	9 3rd (9) (4/1 +56%) Sea Music		4 4/1(+56%)																															(9) Sea Music 4/1, €6,000 3-y-o, Sea Moon gelding. Dam point winner.

Fifth on his stable debut at Killarney two weeks ago; others preferred but could be placed.

Last of 5 finishers completed start in points, unseated rider latest (Mar 25). Completed one of three point-to-points and looks up against it here.
7th	12 7th (12) (33/1 -18%) Aine Beag		33 33/1(-18%)																															(12) Aine Beag 33/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 13 in bumper at Wexford (20.7f, good to soft, 50/1) 27 days ago. Unlikely to get seriously involved. Improved when fourth in a Wexford mares contest when upped in trip; fair bit to find.
8th	1 8th (1) (10/1 -100%) Antrim Coast		10 10/1(-100%)																															(1) Antrim Coast 10/1, Presenting gelding. Brother to fair hurdler Frontline Worker, and half-brother to 2 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Time To Tinker, stays 3m. Interesting if the market speaks in his favour. Staying pedigree and should do better with time and distance.
9th	6 9th (6) (125/1 -213%) Making My Way Back		125 125/1(-213%)																															(6) Making My Way Back 125/1, Lucky Speed gelding. Dam, poor maiden hurdler, half-sister to dual bumper winner/useful 2½m/21f hurdle winner Tikkanbar. Unplaced sole start in points (Apr 23). Mid-division on his sole point-to-point; others look more likely.
10th	11 10th (11) (28/1 +0%) Toonagh Warrior		28 28/1(+0%)																															(11) Toonagh Warrior 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good sixth of 12 in bumper at Wexford (16f, good, 12/1) 43 days ago. More required. Seems progressive but needs to improve significantly to have a chance here.
11th	15 11th (15) (125/1 -150%) Shanlaylin		125 125/1(-150%)																															(15) Shanlaylin 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 13 in bumper at Wexford (20.7f, good to soft, 80/1) 27 days ago. Unlikely to be involved. Three runs in bumpers and has shown ability last twice but needs to find a lot more.

Fifth of 8 in novice hurdle (40/1) at Downpatrick (21.8f, good) on NH debut 21 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Soundly beaten in a Downpatrick maiden hurdle last month; makes little appeal.

I WILL BE BAIE can give Willie Mullins another bumper winner. The French-bred cost 150,000 pounds after winning his point-to-point and was first past the post only to be demoted on his 'track' debut in a Punchestown bumper in June. He showed signs of greenness that day when hanging left in the closing stages and should improve from the experience. Patrick Mullins reported that he was very highly thought of after that 'victory'. The market may prove the best guide to the chances of Sea Music, who makes his first start for Emmet Mullins. The Sea Moon gelding failed to complete on his first couple of point-to-point runs before finishing second at Fairyhouse in April. The Gordon Elliott-trained Docteur Elysees is a newcomer to note. She is out of a mare who won three times over hurdles.

I WILL BE BAIE won his only start in points and tanked round when first past the post at Punchestown on debut 54 days ago. He was subsequently demoted having hung left and bumped his rival in the closing stages, but there's unlikely to be any mistake this time. Sea Music has shown ability between the flags and could pose a threat if the market speaks in his favour, while Docteur Elysees is a player based on pedigree/connections.

This looks likely to go to I WILL BE BAIE, justifiably disqualified at Punchestown, but hard to beat with that experience behind him

1	6 1st (6) (2.25/1 -80%) Rednblue Sovereign		2.25 2.25/1(-80%)																															(6) Rednblue Sovereign 2.25/1, Fair maiden. Creditable third of 9 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 36 days ago. Sets the standard.
2	5 2nd (5) (6/1 +63%) Prepschool		6 6/1(+63%)																															(5) Prepschool 6/1, 20/1, needed experience when sixth of 11 in novice at Ascot (7f, soft) on debut 19 days ago. May do better.

5th	1 5th (1) (4.5/1 +25%) Sahara Kitten		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(1) Sahara Kitten 4.5/1, Green on debut and all the sharper for that when making all over C&D 29 days ago. Will need to improve again if he's to defy the penalty.
6th	3 6th (3) (6.5/1 -63%) Mnawekh		6.5 6.5/1(-63%)																															(3) Mnawekh 6.5/1, Promising type. Second on Chester debut and ran to a similar level when fifth of 10 in what was probably a warm maiden at Newmarket's July meeting. Remains capable of better. Respected.

Validated looks interesting as a son of Iffraaj related to numerous winners and he could go well first time out, a comment that also applies to New Bay colt High Point, who looks the part on paper, but it is still hard to oppose SAHARA KITTEN. James Tate's colt does have to give 7lb or more to all his rivals, but arrives as a C&D winner after scoring by a couple of lengths last month and, with that experience to call upon, he might well follow up.

A repeat of the form REDNBLUE SOVEREIGN has shown on his last 2 outings may be enough for him to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. Mnawekh, I'm Puzzled and Mullazem look capable of better and may give Tom Dascombe's charge most to do in that order.

There's not a great deal between those who have run, with REDNBLUE SOVEREIGN narrowly making most appeal. Validated needs a check.

1	6 1st (6) (4.5/1 +40%) Carlton And Co		4.5 4.5/1(+40%)																															(6) Carlton And Co 4.5/1, Shaped as if back in form when sixth of 14 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm, 10/1) 29 days ago, doing too much too soon. Has to be taken seriously having eased a shade in the weights. Peak RPRs have come at shorter trips and she remains a maiden.
2	12 2nd (12) (11/1 +0%) Rockin Rosa		11 11/1(+0%)																															(12) Rockin Rosa 11/1, Ran just respectably upped in trip when third of 5 in handicap (15/2) at Musselburgh (8f, good to firm) 31 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not taken lightly. Has not progressed; first-time headgear needs to make a difference.
3	8 3rd (8) (14/1 +0%) Atlantic Heart		14 14/1(+0%)																															(8) Atlantic Heart 14/1, 22/1, followed a good run with a below-par one when ninth of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 31 days ago. Must bounce back. Raced at 6f for current yard; sole win came over 7f on Tapeta.
4	9 4th (9) (7/1 +0%) Original Thinker		7 7/1(+0%)																															(9) Original Thinker 7/1, 15/2, ran best race when second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 5 weeks ago, suited by drop in trip. Player if building on that effort. Good second over C&D last time and the winner has franked the form since; strong claims.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/1 +36%) Greycious Anna		9 9/1(+36%)																															(3) Greycious Anna 9/1, 14/1, quickly returned to form when third of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Shaped well on latest turf run; possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear.
6th	1 6th (1) (7.5/1 -36%) Martini Nights		7.5 7.5/1(-36%)																															(1) Martini Nights 7.5/1, Ran to a similar level as previously when third of 13 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 6/4). One to consider given the weight of support for her when last seen 9 months ago on handicap debut. Open to progress in handicaps; interesting on reappearance.
7th	2 7th (2) (4.5/1 +25%) Abbey's Dream		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(2) Abbey's Dream 4.5/1, Dual C&D winner this year, latest in February. 13/2, wasted no time getting back on track when third of 7 in handicap at this C&D back in March, no extra final 100 yds. Can figure if hitting the ground running. Respectable third over C&D in March when last seen, taking Newcastle record to 113.
8th	11 8th (11) (16/1 -78%) Cosa Sara		16 16/1(-78%)																															(11) Cosa Sara 16/1, Latest win at Ayr in May. 5/1, good third of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 43 days ago, rallying after switched approaching final 1f. Her slow starts make her a tricky betting proposition, however. Has done her winning at 1m on turf; this scenario isn't ideal.
9th	10 9th (10) (4/1 +20%) Thawg		4 4/1(+20%)																															(10) Thawg 4/1, Showed much improved form when won 5-runner maiden at Brighton (8f, good to firm, 11/1) 65 days ago, sticking to task. Makes handicap/all-weather debut. May build on Brighton maiden win provided she copes with another drop in trip.
10th	7 10th (7) (40/1 -60%) Azucena		40 40/1(-60%)																															(7) Azucena 40/1, Course winner. Again ran poorly when last of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good, 40/1) 55 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Return to Newcastle may suit but this new trip presents a question mark.
11th	4 11th (4) (14/1 -56%) Platinum Girl		14 14/1(-56%)																															(4) Platinum Girl 14/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year, latest at Carlisle in June. 10/3, produced a rare below-par effort when eighth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 22 days ago, very slowly away. Makes all-weather debut. Enters calculations. Lost her chance with a tardy start on latest outing; consistent otherwise in 2023.

LTO Selection:

---

First-time cheekpieces may benefit GREYCIOUS ANNA following her third at Catterick and there should be plenty more to come from this lightly-raced three-year-old. The usually reliable Platinum Girl, who had excuses when not running up to scratch in that Catterick contest, could easily bounce back, while it is also worth keeping an eye on Martini Nights now she's going handicapping for the first time.

CARLTON AND CO shaped as if back in form when finishing sixth at Thirsk last month and, yet to run a bad race on the all-weather, Mick & David Easterby's 4-y-o gets the tentative nod to belatedly open her account. Platinum Girl produced a rare below-par effort last time, but she's fancied to bounce back quickly, with handicap-debutantes Martini Nights and Thawg another couple worth keeping an eye on.

On the back of a very solid C&D effort, ORIGINAL THINKER (nap) could well go one better. Abbey's Dream is second choice.

1	1 1st (1) (1.25/1 -4%) Sweet Fantasy		1.25 1.25/1(-4%)																															(1) Sweet Fantasy 1.25/1, Well ridden when a decisive scorer from the front at Leicester last week. Had the run of the race on that occasion but a 5 lb penalty won't prevent a very bold follow-up bid. Reliable sort and never better than when winning at Leicester (1m4f, soft) last Wednesday.
2	3 2nd (3) (2.5/1 +29%) Haarar		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(3) Haarar 2.5/1, Placed in a couple of small-field handicaps around this trip in May/June and ridden closer to the pace than ideal at Sandown a month ago. Likely to give it a good go. Not in peak form this year but there has been a little respite from the handicapper.
3	6 3rd (6) (3.5/1 +36%) Naasma		3.5 3.5/1(+36%)																															(6) Naasma 3.5/1, Found improvement when scoring at Lingfield (10f) in June and backed that up with a brace of runner-up efforts last month. This is a deeper handicap but she's clearly in excellent order. Unraced on softer than good; on premises if acting on ground and taking to first headgear.
4	4 4th (4) (16/1 -33%) Swift Tuttle		16 16/1(-33%)																															(4) Swift Tuttle 16/1, Seen to good effect in a steadily-run race when second at Haydock but unable to back that effort up when last of 3 back at that venue in June. Inconsistent 11-race maiden; pipped on penultimate start; ran well on heavy last term.
5th	2 5th (2) (22/1 -10%) Wilkie		22 22/1(-10%)																															(2) Wilkie 22/1, Winner in France but lightly raced for John Butler and falling in the weights without showing signs of taking advantage. Ex-French; fairly useful form on British debut (2022); no trace of that in four runs since.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 +13%) Atalanta Breeze		14 14/1(+13%)																															(5) Atalanta Breeze 14/1, Successful at Brighton (11.9f) on her sole outing last year. Produced her best effort of the season when third at Wolverhampton and a steadily-run race was against her back on turf 3 weeks ago. 2-2 at Brighton; has won on good to soft, unraced on soft; mixed form messages this term.

LTO Selection:

---

Sweet Fantasy may prove popular here after winning a similar race at Leicester last month, but she has to carry a 5lb penalty here and has only been put up 4lb by the handicapper. She can still go well, but if a first-time visor brings any improvement from NAASMA, Pat Phelan's filly could win for the second time. She was hampered before finishing second here last month but may go one better now, while Atalanta Breeze is another to consider with both trip and ground expected to suit.

SWEET FANTASY was seen to good effect from the front at Leicester last week but she could do no more than win decisively and this low-mileage 4-y-o can follow up under a penalty. Haarar and Naasma head the opposition.

Last week's winner SWEET FANTASY looks the safest bet if it's soft ground. Naasma is a player judged on recent fast-ground form.

1	2 1st (2) (4/1 -14%) I'm Spartacus		4 4/1(-14%)																															(2) I'm Spartacus 4/1, Left debut behind when second of 10 in maiden (8/1) at Beverley (5f, soft) 10 days ago. Player. Runner-up at Beverley on second start; could continue to improve now upped in trip.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 +40%) Triggerman		12 12/1(+40%)																															(5) Triggerman 12/1, 8,000 gns foal, 9,000 gns yearling, Ribchester colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Critical Data and 2-y-o 7f winner My Little Tip, both useful. Dam maiden. 66/1, ninth of 12 in maiden at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) on debut 21 days ago. Could improve for last month's debut ninth but a sizeable step forward is needed.
3	1 3rd (1) (0.83/1 +17%) Beechwood Star		0.83 0.83/1(+17%)																															(1) Beechwood Star 0.83/1, Better for debut when close second of 5 in novice at Ayr (6f, good) 17 days ago, nearest finish. Open to further progress and the one to beat. Went very close at Ayr on his second start and holds leading form claims today.
4	7 4th (7) (14/1 +72%) Madame Christine		14 14/1(+72%)																															(7) Madame Christine 14/1, 48,000 gns yearling, 32,000 gns 2-y-o, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 1¼m-1¾m winner Beat The Breeze and winner up to 6f Classic Flyer. Dam unraced. 80/1, well held in novice at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) on debut 6 days ago. 80-1 when a well-beaten sixth of 12 on last Friday's debut at Thirsk; others are preferred.
5th	10 5th (10) (12/1 +25%) Vintage Love		12 12/1(+25%)																															(10) Vintage Love 12/1, Foaled April 11. 22,000 gns foal, £16,500 yearling, Expert Eye filly. Half-sister to 7f winner Endifaa and winner up to 1m Amarillo Gold. Dam winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 1m winner) who stayed 1½m. Half-sister to three winners; likely to improve for this first outing.
6th	8 6th (8) (40/1 -21%) Lady Of The Garr		40 40/1(-21%)																															(8) Lady Of The Garr 40/1, Poor form when fourth in claimer at Beverley for David Loughnane on debut and well held in Catterick maiden since. Has shown some ability across her first two starts but not enough to fancy in this.
7th	3 7th (3) (20/1 -186%) Unowho		20 20/1(-186%)																															(3) Unowho 20/1, Went close at Thirsk on debut but regressive since, fifth of 6 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good) 30 days ago. Went close at Thirsk on debut but form went wrong way on next two starts; gelded since.
8th	6 8th (6) (7/1 +22%) Emu War		7 7/1(+22%)																															(6) Emu War 7/1, Foaled March 5. €26,000 yearling, Dabirsim filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 6f-1½m winner Harmless and 1m winner Ghabnah. Dam unraced half-sister to useful winner up to 2m Jet Action. With a top northern stable and could go well on debut, especially if strong in the betting.
9th	4 9th (4) (50/1 +0%) Birchwood Drive		50 50/1(+0%)																															(4) Birchwood Drive 50/1, Foaled January 15. Birchwood colt. Closely related to useful winner up to 7f Whittle Le Woods. Dam, 7f-10.4f winner, half-sister to useful 7f-8.4f winner Lockantanks. Closely related to the talented Whittle Le Woods but may improve for this debut run.

LTO Selection:

---

BEECHWOOD STAR sets the standard following his eye-catching debut performance at Thirsk and his runner-up effort at Ayr last month. Richard Fahey's colt is likely to make the most of his experience and shed the maiden tag at the third time of asking. I'm Spartacus improved from his first start when finishing second at Beverley and the extra furlong is unlikely to be an inconvenience. Newcomers Emu War and Birchwood Drive appeal most of the remainder.

BEECHWOOD STAR left his debut run behind when just failing at Ayr and this looks an excellent opportunity. I'm Spartacus also stepped up on his debut when second at Beverley and looks the obvious threat, with Emu War making most appeal of the newcomers.

I'm Spartacus is open to improvement now up in trip but preference is for BEECHWOOD STAR following his near-miss at Ayr.

Another 4 lb higher and up against 3-y-os this time but she's likely to give it another good shot. Superb season with four wins, latest C&D; well beaten on softer than good (2020 and 2021).
2	3 2nd (3) (2/1 +11%) Kimnkate		2 2/1(+11%)																															(3) Kimnkate 2/1, Hasn't looked back since blinkered, making it 3 wins from 4 starts when merely kept up to her work to see off 6 rivals at Doncaster (7f, firm) 4 weeks ago. Going softer than good an unknown but she still looks feasibly treated. Has form figures of 1121 since wearing blinkers; unraced on softer than good.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +38%) Storymaker		4 4/1(+38%)																															(5) Storymaker 4/1, Fair maiden. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Beverley (7.5f, good to soft) 16 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to help her find a bit extra. Novice form has not been repeated in her two handicaps; connections turn to headgear.
4	2 4th (2) (3/1 -33%) Chasseral		3 3/1(-33%)																															(2) Chasseral 3/1, AW novice winner last September. Yet to win in handicaps this year but she's shaped well on a few occasions and simply went off too hard at Newmarket (7f) last time. The refitting of a hood could help this free goer. Leading claims. Hood returns: best chance if having soft-ground form proves key.
5th	4 5th (4) (6/1 +70%) Puntarelle		6 6/1(+70%)																															(4) Puntarelle 6/1, Winner at Chelmsford (7f) in April but has since come up short in her 3 outings since. The return to 7f may help but others arrive with more pressing claims. Last two results are a worry, for all that they were over 1m; edging down the weights.

LTO Selection:

---

KIMNKATE is arguably unlucky not to have won her last four races on the bounce having been narrowly denied at Windsor in early July. The blinkers have clearly done the trick with her and she is taken to continue her progression. Chasseral is taking a welcome drop in class and can't be discounted along with last months C&D winner Redredrobin, who has been given a 4lb rise for that victory but can remain competitive.

If the refitting of a hood helps CHASSERAL to settle better she looks capable of winning off this mark. The thriving Kimnkate is the obvious threat.

Redredrobin and KIMNKATE have been in great form but neither has proved themselves on ground softer than good, so there's a risk.

LTO Selection:

The penny appeared to drop late for AL WAASL when running on strongly to finish third at Newbury and, with the likelihood of a fair amount of improvement to come, he is expected to prove too strong for the opposition. Project Geofin is capable of bouncing back from his latest effort at Doncaster and he is respected, along with newcomer Last Addition, who is a half-sister to a multiple Listed-placed filly.

AL WAASL shaped very well come the finish when third at Newbury and should take the beating. Kings Merchant and Last Addition are a couple of newcomers to note.

Having been a promising third on his debut at Newbury three weeks ago, AL WAASL gets the nod. Project Geofin is a danger.

1	2 1st (2) (5/1 +0%) Bear On The Loose		5 5/1(+0%)																															(2) Bear On The Loose 5/1, Off the mark at the second attempt in a novice at Yarmouth in April. Folded tamely at Newcastle next time but has had a break since and remains with potential. Made all on 2nd start (1m, soft); remote on AW since; conditions suit on handicap debut.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.33/1 +45%) Sly Madam		3.33 3.33/1(+45%)																															(1) Sly Madam 3.33/1, Much sharper for return when resuming winning ways at Windsor in April. In-and-out form since but wasn't seen to best effect at Ascot last time and she's a previous C&D winner, so not without hope. 2-2 over C&D (good and heavy); of interest back here with ground conditions to suit.
3	3 3rd (3) (5.5/1 +45%) Dumfries		5.5 5.5/1(+45%)																															(3) Dumfries 5.5/1, Well supported and showed improved form when easily winning 12-runner maiden at Southwell in March. Back on track despite not getting home at Sandown last time and return to this trip should help. Can't be ruled out. AW winner at 1m in March; track/trip excuses since; acts on soft; return to 1m can suit.
4	4 4th (4) (3.6/1 +35%) Almarin		3.6 3.6/1(+35%)																															(4) Almarin 3.6/1, Ran well at Doncaster in June and benefited from a drop back in trip when a good second at York despite a slow start last month. Has a bigger effort in him if he can break on terms. Form has see-sawed since 1m novice win as 2yo; respectable 1m handicap runs of late.
5th	7 5th (7) (3.33/1 -21%) Desfondado		3.33 3.33/1(-21%)																															(7) Desfondado 3.33/1, Got a race run to suit and stepped up considerably to run out a ready winner over C&D 3 weeks ago. May do better still, so merits strong consideration. Striking winner over C&D last month (good); up 7lb in higher grade; can improve further.
6th	6 6th (6) (10/1 -100%) Serious Look		10 10/1(-100%)																															(6) Serious Look 10/1, Course winner who ran to form despite seeming unsuited by the drop in trip at Yarmouth last time. Strong claims returning to a more suitable distance with cheekpieces on for the first time. Course winner at 7f (soft) as 2yo; weak finisher at 1m on AW; needs more.

LTO Selection:

---

Bear On The Loose is worth forgiving his latest effort at Newcastle when stopping quickly. However, DESFONDADO was a comprehensive winner over C&D three weeks ago and a 7lb rise may not be enough to see him follow up for local trainer Simon Dow. Almarin has gone close on a couple of occasions already this term and it would be no surprise should he be in the mix at the business end of the race.

SERIOUS LOOK got back on track after a breathing operation when fifth at Yarmouth last time and he has the potential to do better with cheekpieces applied back up in trip. Desfondado is a danger following his clear-cut C&D win recently and Cobalt Blue can't be ruled out.

Bear On The Loose is respected but DESFONDADO is capable of progressing from an impressive win here three weeks ago.

1	2 1st (2) (16/1 -33%) Dandys Derriere		16 16/1(-33%)																															(2) Dandys Derriere 16/1, Latest win at Thirsk in July. 6/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, soft) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Could bounce back. 6f winner last month and slow ground perhaps no good latest; headgear back on today.
2	7 2nd (7) (18/1 +28%) Headabovetherest		18 18/1(+28%)																															(7) Headabovetherest 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap (66/1) at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 34 days ago, never nearer. Makes tapeta debut. More required. Didn't run badly dropped to 6f last time but even that form needs bettering to win here.
3	8 3rd (8) (1.88/1 +25%) Mostallim		1.88 1.88/1(+25%)																															(8) Mostallim 1.88/1, C&D winner. 5/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 9 days ago, having run of race. Form choice. 9lb well in after last week's easy Chelmsford win; might face pressure for the lead though.
4	13 4th (13) (11/1 +67%) Final Frontier		11 11/1(+67%)																															(13) Final Frontier 11/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. 18/1, below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Difficult ask. Of interest on this winter's AW form and should be at concert pitch after two turf runs.
5th	11 5th (11) (22/1 -120%) Noble Captain		22 22/1(-120%)																															(11) Noble Captain 22/1, 7/2, good second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 15 days ago, running on. Should give another good account. Two good runs at Wolverhampton since dropped to 6f; this track may suit him better.
6th	5 6th (5) (2.5/1 +62%) Muddy Lynn		2.5 2.5/1(+62%)																															(5) Muddy Lynn 2.5/1, C&D winner. Winner here in June. Creditable third of 13 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good, 15/2) 10 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again. Impressive over C&D in June; solid 3rd on turf latest; could have more to come on AW.
7th	12 7th (12) (50/1 -150%) Aclaim To Fame		50 50/1(-150%)																															(12) Aclaim To Fame 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/3, fifth of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft) 13 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Visor on 1st time. Has shown promise but also some quirks; visor and switch to AW need to make a difference.
8th	6 8th (6) (25/1 +24%) Liberty Breeze		25 25/1(+24%)																															(6) Liberty Breeze 25/1, Latest win at Catterick in June. 4/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others make more appeal. Good spell of form came to an end at Catterick last week; cheekpieces now reached for.
9th	3 9th (3) (22/1 -38%) Tathmeen		22 22/1(-38%)																															(3) Tathmeen 22/1, 7-time course winner. 3 wins from 17 runs this year. 18/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 9 days ago. Good third at Wolverhampton last month (5f) but his form dipped over 7f last week.
10th	4 10th (4) (11/1 -22%) Nickleby		11 11/1(-22%)																															(4) Nickleby 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. 6/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at this C&D, left poorly placed. Off 132 days. Tends to go well fresh, so every chance he can bounce back. C&D winner in February; can go well fresh so a four-month absence no bad thing.
11th	10 11th (10) (33/1 -32%) Royal Mariner		33 33/1(-32%)																															(10) Royal Mariner 33/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 12/1) 15 days ago, nearest finish. Becoming well treated but not threatening to capitalise. Not beaten far at Wolverhampton last time but he has work to do with Noble Captain.
12th	9 12th (9) (33/1 -106%) Tees George		33 33/1(-106%)																															(9) Tees George 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, firm, 14/1) 46 days ago. More required. Unexposed 3yo who wasn't beaten far in a slightly higher grade last time; can do better.
1	1 |DQ| (1) (7.5/1 +12%) Glorious Rio		7.5 7.5/1(+12%)																															(1) Glorious Rio 7.5/1, Course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Eighth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) 21 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Should be competitive off reduced mark but that was the case last time too when only 8th.

LTO Selection:

---

Having last won off a 10lb higher mark, Glorious Rio has a live chance on these terms if he is still capable of matching anywhere near his peak performances, while the unexposed Noble Captain appeals strongly for a place at least on only his fourth start in a handicap. However, MUDDY LYNN is readily preferred for win-only purposes, given she is a previous C&D winner who still has bags of scope to improve over this trip.

MOSTALLIM bounced back to score in emphatic fashion at Chelmsford last time and, escaping the penalty, he should be able to comfortably follow up if in the same form. Nickleby goes well fresh and looks of interest after 4 months off, while Muddy Lynn should give her running again.

Mostallim is well ahead of the handicapper but both Noble Captain and MUDDY LYNN appeal in opposition.

1	1 1st (1) (40/1 -150%) Vinaka		40 40/1(-150%)																															(1) Vinaka 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to beat a rival at Kempton last time and arrives with something to prove. Seemed to stay 7f on AW as 2yo; close 3rd over 6f on reappearance; excuse since.
2	4 2nd (4) (2.75/1 +8%) Optiva Star		2.75 2.75/1(+8%)																															(4) Optiva Star 2.75/1, Well treated on juvenile form and has shaped better than the result on last two starts, not getting a clear run at a crucial stage when third at Lingfield 8 days ago. Worth taking a chance on. Mixed in handicaps but not clear run on last two starts, including over C&D; can go well.
3	2 3rd (2) (1.1/1 +27%) Twilight Dancer		1.1 1.1/1(+27%)																															(2) Twilight Dancer 1.1/1, Lightly-raced filly who took a marked step forward on just her second turf outing to score over C&D last time. Could do better again, so makes plenty of appeal. Looked promising when C&D winner last time; up 5lb but has hopes of better.
4	7 4th (7) (22/1 +33%) Gintini		22 22/1(+33%)																															(7) Gintini 22/1, Looked rather limited as a 2yo and is likely to need this first run for 7 months. Others preferred. No waves in AW handicaps at 6f and 7f; turf debut after break and likely to be other days.
5th	5 5th (5) (4/1 -14%) Lahina Bay		4 4/1(-14%)																															(5) Lahina Bay 4/1, Hit top form to score at Salisbury and Windsor last month and wasn't disgraced (not seen to best effect) at Lingfield 16 days ago. Not ruled out. Consecutive 6f wins in the spring; excuse latest; good chance of staying 7f; involved.
6th	6 6th (6) (10/1 -25%) Blue Curacao		10 10/1(-25%)																															(6) Blue Curacao 10/1, Hasn't had much racing for this yard and took a step back in the right direction when third to Twilight Dancer over C&D a fortnight ago. Hooded for the first time but hard to see him reversing form with that rival. Stays 7f; fair third to Twilight Dancer over C&D last month; hood fitted; involved.
7th	3 7th (3) (25/1 -56%) Macho Mania		25 25/1(-56%)																															(3) Macho Mania 25/1, Modest form for Hugo Palmer and didn't fare any better on debut for current yard in maiden at Yarmouth 15 days ago. Needs cheekpieces to perk him up. Early 6f promise on AW as 2yo but this year's form leaves something to be desired.

LTO Selection:

---

TWILIGHT DANCER opened her account with a cosy victory over C&D a fortnight ago and the manner of her success suggested there may be more to come from this daughter of Twilight Son. The nature of this track could play to the strengths of Lahina Bay, who failed to land her hat-trick when last seen but is entitled to bounce back. Optiva Star did well to finish third, having been slowly away at Lingfield last week, and is worth noting.

OPTIVA STAR is on a handy mark and would have gone close with a clear run at Lingfield last time, so he's worth taking a chance on for all that Twilight Dancer was a comfortable winner over C&D last time. Lahina Bay had been in good form prior to an excusable run 16 days ago, so she's also worth respect.

Lahina Bay should stay 7f round here but TWILIGHT DANCER (nap) can go on from a likeable effort when winning over C&D last month.

1	1 1st (1) (3.33/1 +17%) Caribbean Sunset		3.33 3.33/1(+17%)																															(1) Caribbean Sunset 3.33/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2020. 6/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Ayr (6f, soft) 3 days ago. Makes plenty of appeal despite the quick turnaround. Running well on turf in recent weeks and should give it another good go back on AW.
2	7 2nd (7) (14/1 +0%) Dream Together		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) Dream Together 14/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 34 days ago, well positioned. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Down in the weights and ran OK over C&D 5 weeks ago; now gets cheekpieces; not ruled out.
3	5 3rd (5) (7.5/1 +53%) Kraken Power		7.5 7.5/1(+53%)																															(5) Kraken Power 7.5/1, Course winner. 15/2, below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 10 days ago. Others more persuasive. Returns to AW off a sporting mark; one for the shortlist.
4	8 4th (8) (12/1 -243%) Mutanaaseq		12 12/1(-243%)																															(8) Mutanaaseq 12/1, 3/1, won 12-runner handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 8 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Carries penalty. The one to beat if taking his chance (entered at Redcar 4.55 Wednesday). In good form on turf this summer and lower AW mark to exploit; not ruled out..
5th	11 5th (11) (33/1 +18%) Lupset Flossy Pop		33 33/1(+18%)																															(11) Lupset Flossy Pop 33/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 12 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good, 22/1) 26 days ago. Up against it. C&D winner off a 10lb higher mark last October; struggling for form this time around.
6th	4 6th (4) (22/1 -10%) Guest List		22 22/1(-10%)																															(4) Guest List 22/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good, 20/1) 10 days ago. Chance on old form. Didn't run badly over 7f ten days ago but others still look more appealing for the win.
7th	13 7th (13) (14/1 -56%) Struck Gold		14 14/1(-56%)																															(13) Struck Gold 14/1, Unreliable individual. Creditable neck second of 12 to One For The Ladies in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 7/2) 15 days ago. Not sure to be in the same form. Nine-race maiden but placed in each of his four starts on Tapeta; one to consider.
8th	9 8th (9) (7/1 +0%) Variety Island		7 7/1(+0%)																															(9) Variety Island 7/1, C&D winner. One win from 22 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 13 in handicap (11/4) at this course (7.1f) 34 days ago, running on. Going through a good spell at present. C&D winner who comes here on the back of two 2nds at the track; draw might prove tricky.
9th	10 9th (10) (10/1 -11%) One For The Ladies		10 10/1(-11%)																															(10) One For The Ladies 10/1, C&D winner. Won 12-runner minor event (15/2) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 15 days ago by neck from Struck Gold, outbattling runner-up. Remains on a fair mark and should be on the premises. Beat Struck Gold narrowly 15 days ago; still has handicapping potential up just 1lb.
10th	6 10th (6) (18/1 +45%) Churchill Bay		18 18/1(+45%)																															(6) Churchill Bay 18/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 25/1, eighth of 13 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 34 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Best run for this yard came over C&D but more recent efforts make him hard to recommend.
11th	3 11th (3) (50/1 -25%) Fai Fai		50 50/1(-25%)																															(3) Fai Fai 50/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Last of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 23 days ago. Hood back on. Others make more appeal. Fair winner in France; yet to really get going in Britain and he remains opposable.
12th	2 12th (2) (3.2/1 +47%) Wee Fat Mac		3.2 3.2/1(+47%)																															(2) Wee Fat Mac 3.2/1, C&D winner. 9/2, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 17 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Should be back on his game returning to a surface that suits him well. Conditions to suit and he returns to AW off a fair mark; not discounted.
13th	12 13th (12) (22/1 -83%) Merry Secret		22 22/1(-83%)																															(12) Merry Secret 22/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. Bit below form sixth of 15 in minor event (10/3) at Leicester (6f, good) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. C&D winner off 4lb higher in March; in and out since but he can't be discounted.
14th	14 14th (14) (28/1 +44%) Silverlode		28 28/1(+44%)																															(14) Silverlode 28/1, 28/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Hard to fancy. Struggled in 2023 but his C&D 2nd off 12lb higher in December gives him a shout; visor on.

LTO Selection:

---

Mutanaaseq is versatile trip-wise and and is shorlist material, despite picking up 4lb extra for winning over 7f at Catterick. However, he is also due to appear at Redcar on Wednesday so ONE FOR THE LADIES, who arrives on the back of a successful performance at Wolverhampton, shades preference given she is a previous C&D winner who has fared a bit better with the draw. Struck Gold was only a neck behind the selection at Dunstall Park so also looks capable of going well.

WEE FAT MAC shaped better than the result at Ayr last time and has a solid record on tapeta, so he's worth chancing for a stable that has been amongst the winners recently. Mutanaaseq is an obvious danger if taking his chance (entered at Redcar on Wednesday) and Carribean Sunset is likely to give another good account if the race doesn't come too soon.

The recent Wolverhampton handicap in which ONE FOR THE LADIES beat Struck Gold may prove the key formline.

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.
