|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (10) (3/1 -71%)Libertango |
3/1(-71%) | (10) Libertango 3/1, Ran to Albany form when second beaten 3/4l in Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes (Group 2) at Newmarket (July) latest; trainer in form; all races 6f on fast ground; reliable Group-class 2yo filly. 400,000gns breeze-up buy who made it 2-2 when coming from a tough position to win the Group 3 Albany at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm); close second in the Group 2 Duchess Of Cambridge at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) since and the third was a convincing Listed winner next time; leading claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (18) (9/4 +36%)Star Of State |
9/4(+36%) | (18) Star Of State 9/4, Built on debut effort over an extended 6f when winning a maiden at Leopardstown by 9l last time; effective around 6f, acts on good; good chance for top yard up in class given ease of latest. Inexperience evident when runner-up to Livenka on last month's debut at Fairyhouse (6f, good) and showed the benefit of that experience when easily justifying 1-3 odds in Leopardstown maiden (6.5f, good) eight days later; it's possible she didn't beat much last time but she was certainly impressive, and has been supplemented for this race at a cost of £20,000; dam was a 2yo Group 3 winner; she's one to be interested in.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (25/1 +24%)Jolivette |
25/1(+24%) | (9) Jolivette 25/1, Settled better and improved beaten 4l in Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes (Group 2) at Newmarket (July) last time; top course jockey; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface. Won debut at Newmarket (6f, good) in May and respectable runs in Group races since, finishing ninth in the Albany at Royal Ascot (6f, good to firm) then fifth in the Duchess Of Cambridge at Newmarket (6f, good to firm), both times behind Libertango; improvement possible but she has to settle better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (10/1 +60%)Miss Kodi |
10/1(+60%) | (13) Miss Kodi 10/1, Improved up in class and from debut beaten 1 1/2l in Princess Margaret Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot last time; effective 6f, acts on good to soft and fast ground; more needed at this level. Impressive on debut at Chepstow (6f, good to soft) in June and not beaten far when fifth to Moonrise in the Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (6f, good to firm); improvement is needed but she didn't look the finished article last time, having failed to settle and flashed her tail; not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (16) (100/1 -25%)Sexy Chick |
100/1(-25%) | (16) Sexy Chick 100/1, Bit below form up in class and down in trip beaten 6 1/4l in St Hugh's Stakes (Listed) at Newbury last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; will appreciate this step back up, but hard to make a case for at this level. Won Newmarket novice (6f, good to firm) last month on third start and midfield in Listed race at Newbury (5f, good to firm) last Friday; the return to 6f can help but it seems likely her limitations will again be exposed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (19) (4/1 +71%)Wild Blossom |
4/1(+71%) | (19) Wild Blossom 4/1, Ran to form when winning Alice Keppel at Goodwood by 1 1/2l last time; suited by 5f, acts on a sound surface; worth another chance at this level, up in trip. All three starts over 5f; won by 10l on debut at Carlisle in May (good, good to soft in places) and, although she was a touch underwhelming in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (good to firm), she won a quality conditions race at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) three weeks ago; having drawn clear close home last time there is every chance that 6f will suit; contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (10/1 +80%)Crownbreaker |
10/1(+80%) | (5) Crownbreaker 10/1, Clipped heels, no chance after and down the field in Molecomb Stakes (Group 3) at Goodwood most recent start; drawn on wing of large field; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface. Kept on well for fifth in a strong running of the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) and got off the mark at the fourth attempt in Listed race at Deauville (5f, good to soft) last month, with a next-time-out Listed winner in second; a line can be put through her run in the Molecomb at Goodwood as she stumbled; looks a good prospect for 6f and is one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (25/1 -25%)In The Black |
25/1(-25%) | (8) In The Black 25/1, Promising 1 1/2l winner in a maiden at Carlisle on debut; has had wind op since; effective 5f, should get further, acts on fast ground; plenty of progress needed taking a big step up in class. 320,000gns yearling who has an attractive pedigree and is a close relation to 6f Group 2 winner El Caballo; weak in the betting but won four-runner maiden at 13-2 on debut at Carlisle (5f, good to firm) in June; wind op since; takes on a vastly better calibre of opponent this afternoon but she's very unexposed and could be an exciting prospect; no surprise to see a big run.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (15) (10/1 +60%)Ruby Moon |
10/1(+60%) | (15) Ruby Moon 10/1, Solid effort up markedly in class when fourth beaten 3l in Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes (Group 2) at Newmarket (July) latest; both runs 6f on fast ground; smart filly, probably more to come. Her dam is from a classy family and this filly posted a cosy win on debut at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) in June; beaten about 2l by runner-up Libertango when fourth in Group 2 Duchess Of Cambridge Stakes at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) last month but that was a very creditable performance on just her second start and her powerful finish hinted that a stronger early gallop would have been favourable; not discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (40/1 -21%)Angels Passing |
40/1(-21%) | (2) Angels Passing 40/1, Slight improvement from debut when winning a maiden at Hamilton by 5l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on good; smart filly, but more needed at this level. Thrown in at the deep end on debut in the Listed Marygate here (5f, good) in May and did very well to finish fourth; easily made all at 11-10 in three-runner maiden at Hamilton (6f, good) in June; off since and up in grade today but it remains to be seen where the ceiling of her ability lies.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (25/1 +24%)Big Negotiator |
25/1(+24%) | (3) Big Negotiator 25/1, Took another step forward when winning Marwell Stakes (Listed) at Naas by 1 1/4l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on most; ability at this level was exposed at Royal Ascot, Listed looks the limit. Her six starts have yielded two wins, in a 5f novice here (good) in June and a 5f Listed race at Naas (good) four weeks ago when showing improved form in a first-time visor (retained) to make virtually all from Shimmering Sun; ran well over 6.2f in May; this Irish challenger could be a factor.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (50/1 -25%)Bint Archange |
50/1(-25%) | (4) Bint Archange 50/1, Below form beaten 6l in Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury last time; effective 5f, acts on good; won a Listed contest at Sandown penultimate start and Ryan Moore back in the saddle after that success. All five starts at 5f; won at Ascot (good) on second outing and bounced back from heavy Royal Ascot defeat with Listed win at Sandown (good) under Ryan Moore, who is back on board today; didn't run up to her best in the Super Sprint at Newbury and now tackles 6f; others appeal more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (6) (80/1 -60%)Crystal Queen |
80/1(-60%) | (6) Crystal Queen 80/1, Finished well, too much to do beaten 6l in Queen Mary Stakes (Group 2) at Ascot last time; effective at 5f, 6f may bring more, acts on fast ground; light-framed filly, should progress, particularly upped in distance. All three runs at 5f on good to firm; won the Hilary Needler at Beverley in May on her second start then mid-division in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot behind a few of these; the step up to 6f could suit but lots of improvement is needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (17) (18/1 +28%)Shimmering Sun |
18/1(+28%) | (17) Shimmering Sun 18/1, Ran to form when second beaten 1 1/4l in Marwell Stakes (Listed) at Naas latest; effective 5f, will get further, acts on good and fast ground; nice sort, but not sure to be this standard. Won on debut at Salisbury (5f, good) in May and kept on well for seventh in the Group 2 Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm), a race that has worked out extremely well; again finished strongly when Listed runner-up to Big Negotiator at Naas (5f, good) four weeks ago and this first crack at 6f could be right up her street; firmly in calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (12) (33/1 +59%)Love A Giggle |
33/1(+59%) | (12) Love A Giggle 33/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; ran to form on nursery debut when fourth beaten 2 1/4l at Newmarket (July) latest; drawn on wing of large field; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; smart sprinting juvenile filly, but probably not up to this grade. Made it 2-2 when leading in the final strides in the Listed Marygate Stakes here (5f, good) in May; hasn't kicked on since, however, finishing down the field at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) and merely fourth on recent nursery debut at Newmarket (6f, good to firm); others are preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (7) (300/1 -100%)Desert Sands |
300/1(-100%) | (7) Desert Sands 300/1, Roughly to form when 5l third in a novice at Lingfield; effective 6f, acts on good to firm and AW; still a maiden and all to prove back at this level. Has shown ability but she's 0-4 and yet to pose a serious threat, including when 250-1 at Royal Ascot; she would be a shock winner today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (1) (33/1 +50%)Alta Regina |
33/1(+50%) | (1) Alta Regina 33/1, Probably didn't stay 6f beaten 5 1/2l in Princess Margaret Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot last time; in good form prior; effective 5f, acts on good to firm; needs more in this. 240,000gns breeze-up buy who won easily on debut at Lingfield (5f, good to firm) and kept on well for sixth of 27 in a hot renewal of the Group 2 Queen Mary at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm); disappointing in the Group 3 Princess Margaret at Ascot (6f, good to firm) last month but she started awkwardly and is better than that; retains potential at 6f; could bounce back.. |

Libertango was an impressive winner of the Albany at Royal Ascot before tasting defeat for the first time in the Duchess Of Cambridge at Newmarket's July Festival. The switch to a flatter track looks to be a positive, but she may have to play second fiddle to STAR OF STATE. Runner-up when displaying signs of inexperience on debut to Livenka, who had a couple of outings under her belt, she then won in the manner of a very smart filly at Leopardstown and is expected to take another step forward. Livenka franked the form herself in a valuable contest at Naas and is respected, along with Wild Blossom and Moonrise.

1st (3) (1/1 +60%)Minkaas |
1/1(+60%) | (3) Minkaas 1/1, Improved on debut effort up in trip 3/4l third in a maiden at Yarmouth most recent run; effective 5/6f, acts on good to firm; further progress likely over this distance. £140,000 breeze-up 2yo; showed clear promise on Bath debut in May and she built on that when going close over this trip at York (good to firm) two weeks ago; just about sets the standard on that clear third and she should continue to improve with experience; key player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (2/1 +56%)Zephyra |
2/1(+56%) | (6) Zephyra 2/1, Promising, outran market expectations runner-up beaten 3 1/2l in a novice here only start; trainer in form; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; open to improvement, but pedigree suggests might want further than this with time. Looked inexperienced but she shaped with promise when a 20-1 second on her debut over C\u0026D (good to firm) two weeks ago; that form is not strong but she should know more this time and is open to progress on her second start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (7/1 -155%)Elpeeare |
7/1(-155%) | (1) Elpeeare 7/1, Improved on debut effort when fourth beaten 2l in a maiden at Sandown latest; bred to be a sprinter, effective 5f, acts on good to firm and AW; chance with further progress likely. 95,000gns yearling; eye-catching third on Wolverhampton debut (5f, AW) last month and she didn't get much luck when fourth at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 18 days later; that form puts her firmly in the picture and she's open to more progress on this step up in trip; interesting contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (22/1 +12%)Plastic Dream |
22/1(+12%) | (4) Plastic Dream 22/1, 12 Mar; 55,000gns breeze-up purchase by Havana Grey; full-sister to Phone Tag, useful at 9f; dam very useful at 8f at 2yo. 35,000gns yearling, 55,000gns breeze-up 2yo; fourth foal; sister to 1m-1m2f winner Phone Tag (including 2yo; RPR 79); dam 1m 2yo winner (75), half-sister to 7.6f/1m winner Drymee, out of French 1m 2yo winning half-sister to useful 1m1f-1m4f winner Demolition; yard 0-6 with 2yos this season and she could be a longer-term prospect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (9/1 +0%)Scoot Away |
9/1(+0%) | (5) Scoot Away 9/1, 2 Feb; 70,000gns Havana Grey filly; half-sister to Seven Of Hearts, fair at 5f; dam smart at 5f at 2yo; tongue-tie first time. 70,000gns yearling; third foal; dam 5f 2yo winner (RPR 92), half-sister to winners Heartache (5f 2yo Group 2), Unbreak My Heart (Group-placed 5f 2yo) and Heartwarming (Listed-placed 5f 2yo), out of 5f Listed winner; tongue-tie is applied on debut and market should guide.. |

MINKAAS was a close-up third to a well-reagrded filly on the second of her two previous starts and seems to be heading in the right direction. The daughter of Minzaal has a very likeable pedigree and can make her experience count. Zephyra ran green in the early stages when introduced over C&D a fortnight ago, but picked up well to finish a clear second. She, too, should have plenty more to offer. Plastic Dream and Scoot Away are interesting newcomers to monitor in the betting.

1st (1) (5/1 -82%)Birkacre Brow |
5/1(-82%) | (1) Birkacre Brow 5/1, Much improved effort back at 5f when second beaten 3 1/4l in a novice here latest; trainer in form; effective 5f, acts on good to firm and AW; probably a bit more to come and should contend. Showed some ability when fourth of seven on her Redcar debut (5f, good to firm) in May before running poorly over 6f one month later; plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from her AW debut, however, when runner-up over C\u0026D nine days ago; player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (4/6 +59%)Inglewood |
4/6(+59%) | (5) Inglewood 4/6, Game effort made a lot of use of when 3/4l third in a maiden at Thirsk most recent run; hood first time; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; has probably found level but should be competitive again. Promising fifth on debut in May was built on when second at Catterick (good to firm) last month; similar form when fairly close third back at Thirsk (again 5f, good) a fortnight ago; has been racing freely so the new hood looks a good move for her AW debut; considered.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (9/2 +25%)Last Dandelion |
9/2(+25%) | (8) Last Dandelion 9/2, Did too much too soon to get to front wjhen comfortably held in a maiden here last time; effective 5-6f, acts on good, firm and AW; return to 5f a positive but others with experience appeal more. Best effort when third of ten in a slowly run fillies' maiden over 6f on AW here in June; hasn't matched that on turf subsequently and, while the return here is a positive, she's starting to look exposed; drops back to 5f with cheekpieces discarded after one use.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (14/1 -40%)Sacred Rhythm |
14/1(-40%) | (6) Sacred Rhythm 14/1, 21 Mar; 38,000gns Mehmas filly; half-sister to Harlequin Breeze, smart at 8f; dam smart from 12f to 13f; sire's progeny are usually very game and could out-run price on debut. 38,000gns yearling; second foal; Mehmas half-sister to 1m winner Harlequin Breeze (RPR 89); dam Listed-placed 1m 2yo winner (95), half-sister to winners Tigerwolf (6f-1m) and Know No Limits (6f/7f 2yo), out of half-sister to Hollywood Derby runner-up Fast And Furious; stable not noted for winning 2yo newcomers but she'll require a market check.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (33/1 -65%)Fancied Angel |
33/1(-65%) | (3) Fancied Angel 33/1, 26 Mar; 8,000gns Harry Angel filly; dam fair at 5f; bred to be fast and precocious, market move would enthuse. 8,000gns yearling by Harry Angel; first foal; dam runner-up 5f (RPR 57), closely related to 6f winner Sushi, half-sister to Listed-placed winners Queen Of Time (7f-1m2f) and Bounce (6f 2yo), out of 6f 2yo winner; yard is 1-26 with its juveniles at the start of play yesterday.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (33/1 -136%)Glamorous Wild |
33/1(-136%) | (4) Glamorous Wild 33/1, 20 Apr; Twilight Son filly; half-sister to Glamorous Joy, moderate at 5f; dam very useful at 5f; bred to be fast, market best guide to chance. By Twilight Son; fourth foal; half-sister to 5f winner Glamorous Joy (RPR 61); dam 5f winner (including AW; 85), closely related to multiple 5f winner Glamorous Force, out of 5f Group 3 winning half-sister to 5f Group 3 winner Just Glamorous; yard is 0-5 with 2yos this term but that's a speedy pedigree.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (22/1 -450%)Adelaides Turn |
22/1(-450%) | (7) Adelaides Turn 22/1, 18 Mar; Land Force filly; half-sister to Recovery Road, useful at 5f; dam very useful at 7f; likely to be speedy and one of newcomers worth considering. By Land Force; fifth foal; half-sister to 5f-7f winner Hannah's Return (including AW; RPR 63); dam 5f/6f winner (mainly AW; 93), half-sister to 5f/6f winner Lordsbridge Boy, out of German 6f 2yo winning sister to German 6.5f 2yo Listed winner Gooseley Lane; widest stall unhelpful but stable was recently off the mark with this year's juveniles, from just a handful of runners.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (300/1 -200%)Leading Raya |
300/1(-200%) | (9) Leading Raya 300/1, Pedigree a mix of speed and stamina and yet to beat a rival in two starts. 250-1 before finishing last in both outings; one for handicaps.. |

INGLEWOOD has shown promise on all her three starts to date, with placed efforts the last twice at Catterick and Thirsk, despite racing too keenly on both occasions. A first-time hood is applied, which gives her every chance of shedding the maiden tag. Birkacre Brow improved when runner-up over C&D last week and has to enter the reckoning, while Sacred Rhythm appeals most of the newcomers.

1st (6) (1/1 +9%)Sun Goddess |
1/1(+9%) | (6) Sun Goddess 1/1, Strong pace suited and improved when winning Phoenix Stakes (Group 1) at The Curragh by 1 1/4l last time; effective 6f, further may bring more, acts on good and fast ground; looks the one they all have to beat on the balance of form. Only just denied on debut and impressed with 5l win on second start; well backed when a close second in the Albany at Royal Ascot and was then a snug odds-on winner of Curragh Group 2 eight days later; took it up another notch with convincing win in Group 1 Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago; 7lb penalty and she's out fairly quickly again but she sets a high bar.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (80/1 -60%)Battle Fever |
80/1(-60%) | (7) Battle Fever 80/1, Improved on solid efforts first two starts when winning a novice at Thirsk by 3l last time; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; bit more needed again stepping back up in trip. Off the mark at the third attempt when he came nicely clear close home over 5f at Thirsk (good) 19 days ago; step back up to 6f should be no problem but that bare form needs a big chunk of improvement.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (21) (40/1 -21%)Speed Of Sound |
40/1(-21%) | (21) Speed Of Sound 40/1, Opened account when winning a maiden at Yarmouth by a head last time; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; trainer/jockey combination has proved useful this season, but progress needed here. All starts at 6f on good to firm and she's displayed similar ability across the three of them, latterly off the mark by a head at Yarmouth a fortnight ago; requires a step up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (13) (28/1 -12%)Pride Of Toledo |
28/1(-12%) | (13) Pride Of Toledo 28/1, Yard has won last three runnings of race; took a marked step forward from debut when winning a novice at Salisbury by 4l last time; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; open to more improvement, but looks to be yard's second string. Big step up from his debut when he scampered clear to win four-runner Salisbury novice (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; needs to improve again but it's highly unlikely we've seen the best of him and he's respected as one of three for a yard that's on a four-timer in this race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (7/2 +42%)Satellite Of Love |
7/2(+42%) | (15) Satellite Of Love 7/2, Improved on debut success when winning a novice at Newbury by a neck last time; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; looks to have plenty of ability and big chance in this for the jockey/trainer combination that has won the last two renewals. Made all in 12-runner Windsor maiden on his introduction in May and followed up under a penalty at Newbury (again 6f, good to firm) last month; jockey bookings suggest he's the pick of a three-pronged attack from a yard that's won this race for the last three years; respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (80/1 +0%)The Bookkeeper |
80/1(+0%) | (5) The Bookkeeper 80/1, Ran to form 2l third in a nursery at Goodwood most recent run; effective 6/7f, bred for 7f, acts on good to soft; steadily progressive, but needs a bit more and carries a small penalty for earlier success. Carries a 3lb penalty for winning Class 3 Haydock novice (good to soft) in May; solid effort when third in Glorious Goodwood nursery (again 7f, good to firm) last time but that still leaves him a little short of the required standard on this drop back to 6f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (16) (80/1 -60%)Secret Society |
80/1(-60%) | (16) Secret Society 80/1, Built on debut effort when a length third in a novice at Windsor most recent run; effective 6f, acts on good to firm; notable jockey booking, but plenty of progress needed considering still a maiden. Stepped forward from his debut to be third of 12 at Windsor (6f, good to firm) last month; plenty to do on that bare form but his yard's record in this race ensures he's not instantly dismissed and Dylan Browne McMonagle is an eye-catching jockey booking.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (17) (10/1 +75%)Thebesthasyetocome |
10/1(+75%) | (17) Thebesthasyetocome 10/1, Improved on fair debut when winning a maiden at Ayr by 3 1/2l last time; trainer in form; drawn on wing of large field; off a short-break; effective 5/6f, acts on good and soft; open to further progress and held in high regard. Well-held third behind Where Love Lives on debut at Thirsk (5f, good) in April; different story over 6f on soft ground when drawing away late to bag Ayr maiden two months ago; has some punchy future entries and, while he might already be looking for further, he's not one to rule out at likely rewarding odds.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (125/1 -150%)It Dunt Marra |
125/1(-150%) | (11) It Dunt Marra 125/1, Off the mark at the third time of asking dropped back into a novice at Lingfield last time; effective 5f, acts on a sound surface; has already ran well at Listed level, still needs a bit more. All starts at 5f; appeared to run quite well when sixth in Sandown Listed event (good) last month and he didn't need to better that effort when opening his account at Lingfield (good to firm) three weeks later; this is a very different test.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (20) (28/1 +15%)Rollthedicebaby |
28/1(+15%) | (20) Rollthedicebaby 28/1, Yard has won 5 of last 10 runnings of race; ran to form beaten 3l in a nursery at Newmarket (July) last time; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and a sound surface; plenty of promise when winning Goodwood maiden earlier, but more needed at this level now. Yard is no stranger to success in this sort of event and she looked on the up when bounding clear in 6f Goodwood maiden (soft) in June; only sixth of nine in a Newmarket nursery 19 days ago, however.. |

11th (22) (22/1 +0%)Vollering |
22/1(+0%) | (22) Vollering 22/1, Ran to form when second beaten 3/4l in Prix de la Vallee d'Auge (Listed) at Deauville latest; drawn on wing of large field; effective 5f, should get at least 6f, acts on both sides of good; very useful early 2yo, chance here based on latest effort. Redcar novice winner on her debut in April who was less than 2l behind Tokaido in Chantilly Listed event (good) the following month; big run when second in another French Listed race (again 5f) 12 days ago; should stay 6f on pedigree and has solid each-way claims on that latter form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (14) (33/1 -83%)Quillan |
33/1(-83%) | (14) Quillan 33/1, Ran to from making it 2-2 when winning a novice at Ripon by 1 1/4l last time; effective 5f, probably wants further, acts on good; more to come up in trip. Unbeaten colt who was 28-1 when winning on his debut at Redcar in June and showed a good attitude when defying a penalty at Ripon (again 5f, good) one month later; this step up to 6f could unlock more and he might go well for a long way.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (2) (150/1 -20%)Furturra |
150/1(-20%) | (2) Furturra 150/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 4l in a nursery here latest; effective 5/6f, acts on good; experienced dual winner running to a good level, but needs more having to carry a penalty for an early success. Experienced juvenile who has won two of his ten starts, including a Class 2 seller at Musselburgh (5f, good) in June which leaves him with a 5lb penalty; passed over.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (9) (28/1 -40%)Glorious Game |
28/1(-40%) | (9) Glorious Game 28/1, Made too much use of beaten 7l in Princess Margaret Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot last time; in good form prior; effective 6f, bred to get at least 7f, acts on good to soft and fast ground; worth a go at this level. Tongue tied all starts; won her first two, including when she shared a Newmarket Listed event (6f, good to firm) in June; not so good last time and she has a 5lb penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (18) (80/1 -142%)Weekend Roar |
80/1(-142%) | (18) Weekend Roar 80/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 6l in Ballyhane Stakes at Naas latest; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; needs more and looks to be yard's second string. Did just enough to score at Newmarket (good to firm; solid form) on his second start and it wasn't a bad effort when fourth in valuable Naas event (also 6f, good) 17 days ago; needs more, though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (1) (5/1 -11%)Tokaido |
5/1(-11%) | (1) Tokaido 5/1, Took another step forward when winning Prix Robert Papin (Group 2) at Chantilly by 2l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good; rapidly progressing gelding who has already won at Listed and Group level in France, carries a hefty penalty, but very big chance. Improving gelding who won his second Group race when taking three-runner Group 2 Prix Robert Papin at Chantilly (6f, good) one month ago; shoulders a 7lb penalty but he may be capable of better again and rates a leading contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (12) (40/1 +20%)Kodiak Breeze |
40/1(+20%) | (12) Kodiak Breeze 40/1, Ran to form completing double when winning a novice at Thirsk by 1/2l last time; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; more needed up in class. Runner-up on debut in May to a subsequent Listed winner and made no mistake in big-field Redcar maiden (6f, good) a fortnight later; belied an awkward head carriage to battle back and score under a penalty at Thirsk last time; has work to do on the figures but might surprise a few.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (19) (150/1 -50%)Niewiadoma |
150/1(-50%) | (19) Niewiadoma 150/1, Outclassed but ran to form beaten 10l in Weatherbys Super Sprint at Newbury last time; blinkers first time; suited by 5f, acts on good, sound surfaces will suit action; more needed stepping up in trip. All starts at 5f; she made the perfect start at Thirsk (good) in April but it's been downhill in better events subsequently; steps up to 6f with blinkers added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
19th (10) (18/1 +28%)Innichen |
18/1(+28%) | (10) Innichen 18/1, Ran to form up in class 1/2l third in a nursery at Goodwood most recent run; drawn on wing of large field; effective at 5/6f, acts on sound surface; progressive and clearly held in high regard, chance. Improver; picked up a 5f Pontefract maiden (good) in April and had no problem with 6f when taking a Nottingham nursery in July; missed the break but still went on to run well when third of 18 in Glorious Goodwood nursery (again 6f, good to firm) four weeks later; holds Group entries and he's likely better than his current mark; not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
20th (3) (150/1 +0%)Mind Those Steps |
150/1(+0%) | (3) Mind Those Steps 150/1, Below form in a tongue-tie beaten 5l in a novice at Newcastle last time; effective 6f, acts on good; this looks a tough ask. Built on his debut to take a Class 2 novice narrowly at Hamilton (6f, good) in May; 5lb penalty for that win makes life even harder and he was down the field in a tongue-tie at Newcastle four weeks ago.. |

It is very difficult to oppose SUN GODDESS after her recent Group 1 success in the Phoenix Stakes at the Curragh. Aidan O'Brien's filly has proved to be a relative bargain after being purchased for 120,000 pounds at the Goffs UK Premier yearling sale and connections have opted to take advantage of the excellent prize money on offer. Tokaido appears the most obvious threat following his Prix Robert Papin victory, while the unbeaten Satellite Of Love is the pick of Clive Cox's trio as he seeks a fourth win on the bounce in this valuable contest.

1st (4) (10/3 -67%)Tie A Navyribbon |
10/3(-67%) | (4) Tie A Navyribbon 10/3, Didn't get home up in class made plenty of use of beaten 7 1/2l in Stud Sweet Solera Stakes (Group 3) here last time; effective 7f, acts on good to firm; chance to get off the mark back in calmer waters. Both runs have been at big prices over 7f (good to firm) on this course; rallied well when third in a novice (third of seven) last month and she wasn't disgraced in the Group 3 Sweet Solera last time; has leading claims now back in much calmer waters and she's out of a 1m winner.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6/4 +0%)Missouri Waltz |
6/4(+0%) | (1) Missouri Waltz 6/4, Very promising a length winner in a maiden at Catterick on debut; effective 7f, will get further, acts on good to firm; open to plenty of progress. 95,000gns yearling but re-sold for £20,000 at a breeze-up; half-sister to two useful winners including Zihba (7f/1m including Group 3; RPR 104); 11-2 on Catterick debut (7f, good to firm) last month and she found plenty before staying on strongly to beat nine rivals; this is tougher under a penalty but that was a bright start and she's open to progress upped in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (15/2 +38%)Highland Girl |
15/2(+38%) | (2) Highland Girl 15/2, Poor well beaten in a maiden at Goodwood only start; sire highly effective over middle distances, dam useful 12-16f; step up in trip should suit, but likely wants further than this still. Half-sister to six winners but she was 50-1 at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) three weeks ago and beat only one rival in that 13-runner maiden; can only be watched after that low-key start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (10/3 +72%)Mandolin Rain |
10/3(+72%) | (3) Mandolin Rain 10/3, Modest 6 1/2l fourth in a novice at Nottingham first-time out; sire top-class 6/7f, dam useful from 7f to 16f; could unlock further progress up in trip by a couple of furlongs. 75,000euros Irish breeze-up 2yo; weak 20-1 shot on recent Nottingham debut (6f, good to firm; 20-1) and she finished a well-held fourth of seven; this trip should be a better fit on pedigree but she needs a major step forward on her second start.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (18/1 -80%)Voyager One |
18/1(-80%) | (6) Voyager One 18/1, 25 Mar; 15,000gns breeze-up purchase by Space Traveller; half-sister to Starboy, very useful at 7f; dam smart at 8f; probably best watched on first start. 15,000gns breeze-up 2yo; half-sister to winners Theotherside (6f including 2yo; RPR 92), Starboy (6f/7f including 2yo; 91), Fat Gladiator (7f AW; 72), Chevillon (1m AW 2yo; 71) and Dandy Fitz (5f; 66); dam 1m winner (including 2yo; 93); has fair target to aim at on debut and market should guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (10/1 -100%)Veloria |
10/1(-100%) | (5) Veloria 10/1, 13 Apr; Earthlight filly; half-sister to King Zain, smart at 7f; dam high-class at 8f; trainer in form; not ruled out entirely on debut. Ninth foal; half-sister to winners King Zain (7f including 2yo; RPR 106), Porters Place (7f 2yo; 90), Duvessa (10.6f AW; 87), Kamili (1m; 83), Shringara (1m3f; 79) and Dark Side (US 1m/8.5f); dam 1m-9.4f winner (including Group 3; 108); well-bred newcomer and she needs watching in market.. |

TIE A NAVYRIBBON was a respectable third when introduced in a maiden over 7f here last month before stepping up for a crack at the Sweet Solera 12 days ago. She set the early fractions in that Group 3 event before finding herself out of her depth. This is far more within reach and the drop in class can see her off the mark at the third attempt. Missouri Waltz won stylishly at Catterick and should go close, despite a 4lb penalty. Voyager One is a half-sister to five winners and is an interesting newcomer to consider.

1st (5) (4/5 +60%)One Number |
4/5(+60%) | (5) One Number 4/5, Never landed a blow down to 7f in very good maiden at Galway last time; cheekpieces first time; stays 1m, acts on yielding and good; touch short of pace at 7f in good company last time and has major chance here on 1m Listed form. Promising start over 6f but best form when a one-paced third in 1m Listed race in July; perhaps found yielding ground against him in an easier grade at Galway (7f) next time, finding zero, but he may do better on sand with cheekpieces fitted; leading Irish yard 0-5 with juveniles on AW in Britain.. |

2nd (1) (4/1 +20%)Berkshire Regal |
4/1(+20%) | (1) Berkshire Regal 4/1, 14 Apr; 90,000gns Calyx colt; full-brother to Mathoura, useful at 9f and half-brother to a couple of useful sorts in France; top trainer; interesting debutant and one for the short-list. 35,000euros foal; 90,000gns yearling; fifth foal; Calyx half-brother to French winners Illois (9.5f/1m2f AW) and Imbleville (10.5f AW); dam 9.5f-10.7f winner (including AW); likely type; market can guide.. |

3rd (6) (11/4 +0%)Royal Acclamation |
11/4(+0%) | (6) Royal Acclamation 11/4, 11 Mar; Zarak colt; half-brother to Blessed Honour, very useful at 10f; dam unraced half-sister to smart miler Doom; top trainer; a very likely player on debut and one to consider. Third foal; by Zarak; closely related to 1m2f winner Blessed Honour (RPR 86); dam unraced half-sister to Listed winners Doom (7f/1m) and Lilt (1m), out of US 9.5f/1m2f Grade 1 winner; top trainer's juveniles have a cracking strike-rate on sand, 34% in the last five years.. |

4th (7) (40/1 -233%)Yellow Vision |
40/1(-233%) | (7) Yellow Vision 40/1, 6 Apr; 67,000gns Space Blues colt; half-brother to Booklight, useful at 8f; dam very useful at 8f, half-sister to a staying Group winner; trip could suit, market best guide to chance. 67,000gns yearling; fifth foal; by Space Blues; closely related to Qatari 9.5f winner Sydney Mews; dam 1m/8.4f winner (RPR 93), half-sister to 2m2f Group 2 and smart 2m-2m5f hurdle winner Thomas Hobson; trainer has done well with 2yos on turf this year but less so on AW; likely other days.. |

5th (4) (18/1 -157%)Minsmere |
18/1(-157%) | (4) Minsmere 18/1, 25 Apr; 50,000 euros Minzaal colt; half-brother to Heiselectric, very useful at 9f; dam unraced half-sister to dual purpose winners; mixed pedigree stamina-wise, market best guide. 50,000euros yearling; third foal; Minzaal half-brother to 1m2f winner Heiselectric (RPR 89); dam unraced half-sister to winners Zoffman (1m2f/1m4f Flat and 2m hurdle) and Sheishybrid (12.6f/2m2f Flat and 2m1f/2m2f hurdle); leading trainer is 8-64 with 2yos here in the last five years.. |

6th (2) (10/1 -100%)Blueabad |
10/1(-100%) | (2) Blueabad 10/1, 24 Mar; Blue Point colt; dam smart at 14f, half-sister to Group 3 12f winner; trainer in form; mixed pedigree stamina-wise, worth watching in the market. Second foal; by Blue Point out of 1m 2yo/1m6f winner (RPR 98) who also acted well on Polytrack, half-sister to multiple winner Dubday (including 1m4f Group 3) and Dannyday (useful at 1m5f-2m on AW); yard hasn't had many 2yos run on the AW this year (1-7) but the betting should be helpful.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (25/1 -56%)Appassionata |
25/1(-56%) | (8) Appassionata 25/1, 13 Feb; Golden Horn filly; half-sister to numerous winners including Cabaletta, high-class at 14f and Listed winner; dam French Leger winner; likely to need distance of ground and time. Ninth foal; Golden Horn half-sister to six winners including Cabaletta (1m-1m4f including 2yo/Listed); Pivotal Trigger (7f 2yo/1m2f; 101) and Baihas (1m6f; 90); dam 1m4f-2m winner (including French St Leger; 115); interesting newcomer but no surprise if this is needed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (125/1 -89%)Dust My Broom |
125/1(-89%) | (3) Dust My Broom 125/1, 17 Apr; Cracksman colt; dam unraced half-sister to Middle Park (2yo 6f G1) winner Shalaa; sire tends to impart plenty of stamina and may need time and distance. 3,000gns yearling; second foal; by Cracksman out of unraced half-sister to winners including Shalaa (6f 2yo Group 1); likely best watched as yard doesn't target 2yo races.. |

It would be disappointing if ONE NUMBER couldn't get off the mark. The only member of the field with experience, Joseph O'Brien's colt made the frame at Listed level at Naas before appearing to have a valid excuse on softer ground at Galway, and the combination of first-time cheekpiece along with the return to a mile can also benefit him. There are some interesting newcomers, including Royal Acclamation whose grand-dam was a dual Grade 1 winner in the US, and Blueabad.

1st (5) (7/1 +7%)The Lost King |
7/1(+7%) | (5) The Lost King 7/1, Returned to form back to a mile landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark here last time; effective 7-9f, acts on a sound surface; can go well again despite revised mark. Added to his two AW wins early this year when scoring over C\u0026D (good to firm) last month; 6lb higher in hotter race today but this lightly raced 4yo is progressive; unraced on slow turf but dam's family excelled on it.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (9/2 +18%)Bullet Point |
9/2(+18%) | (6) Bullet Point 9/2, Won this last year; ran about to form beaten 4l off this mark at Ascot last time; top Ebor meeting trainer; effective 8f, acts on soft and a sound surface; just 1lb above win in this last year and heading back in the right direction. Failed to kick on after winning this last year (good to firm) but he returned to form in first-time cheekpieces (retained today) when runner-up at Ascot (1m, good to firm) recently; won on soft ground early in career; firmly in the mix if backing up that latest performance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (16) (14/1 +44%)Spell Master |
14/1(+44%) | (16) Spell Master 14/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/2l off this mark at Goodwood last time; effective 7-10f, acts on most; generally consistent, ran to fair level for new yard this term, can go well again back over a mile. Close third at Newmarket (good) in June when upped to 1m on his second start for this yard, and he made good headway before his run petered out in the John Smith's Cup here (10.2f, good to firm) last month; denied a clear run when mid-division at Glorious Goodwood (1m1f, good to firm) last time; the return to 1m could be ideal; ran well on soft early in career; chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (28/1 -75%)Hawksbill |
28/1(-75%) | (11) Hawksbill 28/1, Roughly to form beaten 4l off this mark at Goodwood last time; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface; looks to be on a competitive mark, but needs a bit more. Two quick runs at Glorious Goodwood three weeks ago, beaten only 2l when fifth of 20 on the Wednesday (7f, good to firm) then seventh of 18 in the Golden Mile on the Friday (good to firm) when he would have been closer with a clear run; it's possible he'll be involved; unproven on slow ground.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (8/1 +0%)Blue Brother |
8/1(+0%) | (8) Blue Brother 8/1, Ran about to form of latest beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; effective 7-10f, acts on most typesof ground; ex-French winner, chance if building on recent efforts. Returned from a year off with fine fourth in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot (7f, good to firm); not quite at the same level in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood (good to firm) since and could do with settling better, but he was effective over 1m in France (including on testing ground) and is capable of playing a leading role if at the top of his game.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (5/2 +44%)Centigrade |
5/2(+44%) | (4) Centigrade 5/2, Confirmed retained ability back from a long absence when winning a novice at Southwell by 3l last time; won hot novice as 2yo previous run in 2024; effective 7/8f, acts on heavy, good and AW; unexposed and major player despite opening mark based on 2024 form. Looked very promising in 2024 on first two starts (7f/1m, good/heavy) and returned from long absence to win a Southwell novice (1m, AW) at 6-4 two months ago; in a hot race on a lofty mark for his handicap debut but very unexposed and could well be up to the task for his top yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (10/1 +29%)Eternal Force |
10/1(+29%) | (9) Eternal Force 10/1, Ran to form beaten 6l in a handicap at Newcastle last time; blinkers first time; top Ebor meeting trainer; off a short-break; suited by 1m, acts on both sides of good; very progressive backend of last season, still running to a fair degree at this level this campaign and has a notable jockey booking. Looked very much one to follow after winning his final three runs last term (1m, good to firm/good to soft); that hasn't been the case but he was beaten just a nose at Hamilton (1m, good) two starts ago and perhaps the first-time blinkers will prompt a bigger performance; unproven on soft/heavy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (28/1 -27%)Arctic Dawn |
28/1(-27%) | (2) Arctic Dawn 28/1, Ran to very best landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) last time; trainer in form; effective 7f, acts on a sounds surface; in good form, but new mark could be stiff. Made it four wins from his last ten starts when scoring at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) recently; on a lofty mark under a 6lb penalty and it remains to be seen if he's just as good over 1m, but there can be optimism in that regard and he's clearly progressive; has run well on soft/good to soft.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (80/1 -142%)Mirsky |
80/1(-142%) | (12) Mirsky 80/1, Ran about to current level beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at Thirsk last time; wide draw; effective 8f, acts on most surfaces; back on last winning mark, but form has tailed off since then. Two wins last year (1m, good to firm/good to soft; he's possibly okay on soft) and added another off this mark at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) in May; however, he's finished no better than seventh across his five runs since.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (18/1 +28%)Yorkshire |
18/1(+28%) | (14) Yorkshire 18/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at Haydock last time; effective 7/8f, best recent efforts on AW but acts on a sound surface; can go well again back up in class after last couple of efforts. Returned to form when going very close at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) last month and again ran well when third of 13 at Haydock (1m, good) 12 days ago; it's possible he's better over 7f but he might not be far away; has won on good to soft, unraced on softer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (17) (33/1 -32%)The Angel King |
33/1(-32%) | (17) The Angel King 33/1, Returned to form beaten a length off this mark at Chester last time; effective 7f, acts with cut and on good; ex-French winner, has struggled for consistency for new yard, needs to build on latest. Two wins in France last year over 7f on very soft/good to soft; mixed form for new yard this year but has twice run well at Chester, most recently second there 18 days ago (7f, good); 1m might be within range and he has possibilities if backing up that latest performance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (12/1 +25%)Cerulean Bay |
12/1(+25%) | (3) Cerulean Bay 12/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; well below form down the field in a handicap at Ascot most recent; in good form prior; effective at 7/8f, acts on soft and a sound surface; generally consistent and can bounce back. Uncharacteristically below par at Ascot recently but was under a new rider in the Shergar Cup; he's run really well in defeat under Danny Tudhope in some hot handicaps this year and was second in this last season (good to firm); versatile ground-wise; could bounce back with a big performance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (13) (11/1 +83%)Nizam |
11/1(+83%) | (13) Nizam 11/1, Below form beaten 8l in a handicap at Ascot last time; off a short-break; effective 8-10f, acts with cut and on good; mark continues to ease, but needs a lot more. His three French wins came on slow ground; unplaced this year on his three British starts but best effort came on good to soft when 4l seventh of 18 at Epsom in June when squeezed for room more than once; edging down the weights and slow ground would be a major boost to his claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (7) (10/1 +50%)Checkandchallenge |
10/1(+50%) | (7) Checkandchallenge 10/1, Ran roughly to form 4l third in a handicap here most recent run; effective 8-10f, acts on most ground; on a lengthy losing streak, but running to a fair level and competitively weighted based on old efforts. 7yo who is winless since November 2023 but has dropped down the weights and was 4l third of 13 to The Lost King over C\u0026D (good to firm) last month; each-way claims if acting on the ground; his last win came on heavy going but subsequent slow-ground form has been mixed.. |

Centigrade showed plenty of promise as a juvenile against some smart individuals and returned from a lengthy absence to win at Southwell in June. Ralph Beckett's colt has the potential to be better than his opening mark of 102, but whether he is streetwise enough against experienced handicappers is a concern. Mezcala has won two valuable prizes this season, including the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot, but a wide draw tempers enthusiasm and the vote goes to last year's winner BULLET POINT. He took a step in the right direction when runner-up at the Shergar Cup earlier this month and that may have set him up for a repeat success off 1lb higher.

9/4(-50%) | (6) Venetian Lion 9/4, Ran to form landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off a 7lb lower mark at Nottingham last time; trainer in form; effective 8f, acts on fast ground and AW; in good form, still unexposed and can go well again. Gelded after three ordinary efforts in maidens in the spring; raised his game on handicap debut when a close second at Southwell (1m; tongue-tie added) last month and he built on that when landing the odds in good style at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm); up 7lb but he still looks feasibly treated on that latest form and is open to more progress; major player.. |

9/4(+65%) | (5) Glen Nevis 9/4, Step back in the right direction beaten 2 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Brighton last time; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface; likeable type, down in class and weight, but needs a bit more. Unexposed gelding who was a fair fourth in a Brighton handicap (1m, good to firm) two weeks ago but he hasn't really progressed so far and needs to find more to make a big impact.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (6/1 -9%)Potomac River |
6/1(-9%) | (1) Potomac River 6/1, Step back in the right direction beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Haydock last time; effective 7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; mark continues to ease, but still needs a bit more. Inconsistent seven-race maiden but he's on a reduced mark and made some good late headway when fourth of 11 in a Haydock handicap (7f, good) 13 days ago; this step up in trip should suit on pedigree and he's in the mix with Jamie Spencer booked.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (7/2 -5%)Mertoun |
7/2(-5%) | (4) Mertoun 7/2, Scored by 5l off a 11lb lower mark at Carlisle penultimate start; ran about to form up in class, better than the bare result fourth beaten 1 1/4l off 73 last time, same mark here; effective 1m, acts on a sound surface; rapidly progressive in handicaps, can go well again here. Made it second-time lucky in handicaps when trouncing his rivals at Windsor and he followed up with a 5l success at Carlisle (1m, good) last month; shot up the weights after those wins but he ran another good race when a close fourth over C\u0026D last month; needs to kick on again to defy this mark but he's still lightly raced and is bred to be useful.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (16/1 +27%)Big Alex Walmsley |
16/1(+27%) | (8) Big Alex Walmsley 16/1, Ran about to the balance of form up in distance 5 1/4l third in a handicap at Yarmouth most recent run; effective 7/8f, stayed 10f, acts on sound surface; mark continues to ease, but needs a lot more back down in trip. Eight-race maiden who has finished third in Yarmouth handicaps (1m/1m2f, good to firm) in his last two runs but those were five-runner events and he was beaten 5l last time; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (9/1 +25%)Legacy Rock |
9/1(+25%) | (7) Legacy Rock 9/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Windsor three starts back; below form sixth beaten 7 1/4l off 72 last time, 1lb lower here; off a short-break; effective 8f, acts on a sound surface; had been progressive, but handicapper might have caught up now. Won back-to-back handicaps at Windsor (1m, good to firm) in May before a good second in his hat-trick bid at Nottingham; only 1lb higher here but his progress came to a halt at Salisbury (last of six) in June and he has a bit to prove after that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (100/1 -203%)Wield |
100/1(-203%) | (3) Wield 100/1, Below form again down the field in a handicap at Ascot most recent; stays 7f, acts on good and AW; promising novice and maiden form, but found nothing in handicaps. All starts at 7f; showed clear promise in novice/maiden events for Andrew Balding in the spring but he's struggled at big prices in two handicaps for current yard; still unexposed but he needs a transformation at this new trip.. |

VENETIAN LION has scope for progression and appeals for a quick follow-up after a smooth win at Nottingham 17 days ago. The William Haggas-trained gelding fully justified the strong support in the betting that day and appears capable of holding his own in this slightly deeper race. Mertoun has paid the price for a brace of wins in handicaps with a rising mark, but is dependable enough to warrant close inspection. Glen Nevis is less exposed than some of the others and is a reasonable alternative.

1st (8) (12/1 +0%)Whitesnake |
12/1(+0%) | (8) Whitesnake 12/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/2l off this mark at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on good and AW; needs more taking another step up in trip. Five-race maiden who has finished third in both starts since switching to handicap company, most recently at Wolverhampton over 7f last month; didn't look to be crying out for this step up to 1m but has each-way claims if seeing it out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +20%)Bajan Bandit |
4/1(+20%) | (1) Bajan Bandit 4/1, Ran to form beaten 2l off this mark at Haydock last time; suited by 7/8f, acts on a sound surface; going well again last twice, chance again. Disappointed on his reappearance in June but he's been running well in three starts since the visor was applied, most recently finishing third of 11 in a 0-75 at Haydock (7f, good) 13 days ago; drops in grade with good claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (11/2 -10%)Dandy Khan |
11/2(-10%) | (2) Dandy Khan 11/2, Step back in the right direction beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark here last time; effective 7/8f, best on AW, but acts on good to firm; needs to build on latest. All five wins have been at this track, with one coming over C\u0026D, the most recent coming off 1lb higher in February; can miss the break, just as she she did when keeping on into third here over 7f last time, but drops in grade and makes the shortlist.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (22/1 -83%)Warrnambool |
22/1(-83%) | (12) Warrnambool 22/1, Below form again beaten 9l in a handicap here last time; visor first time; effective 7-10f, all form on a sound surface and AW; on a competitive mark, but needs to bounce back returned to a mile. Third of nine over this C\u0026D last October when trained by Michael Keady but he beat only one rival home here over 1m2f on his stable debut nine days ago and his record now reads 0-18; drops back in trip with a visor added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (6/1 -9%)Manton Road |
6/1(-9%) | (7) Manton Road 6/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw; effective 7-9f, acts on AW; can go well again back to a mile despite revised mark. Caught late after hanging left in a C\u0026D classified event two starts ago before gaining his fifth AW success at Wolverhampton (7f, AW; first-time cheekpieces) three weeks ago; a 4lb rise still leaves him fairly treated on old form and he has to be respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (15/8 +38%)Ocean Force |
15/8(+38%) | (10) Ocean Force 15/8, Ran to form beaten 8l in a novice here last time; off a short-break; yet to find suitable conditions; type to do better when handicapping. Caught the attention of the stewards here on turf over 7f two starts ago and looked unfortunate not to finish closer when sixth of eight here on turf over 6f two months ago; looks a potential improver now stepping up in trip on his handicap debut and market support would look significant.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (66/1 -65%)Nubough |
66/1(-65%) | (11) Nubough 66/1, Below form again beaten 4l in a handicap at Southwell last time; wide draw; off a short-break; effective 6/7f, acts on AW; erratic, needs more. Five wins include two here over 6f; runner-up here over 7f in January but he hasn't matched that level in three starts since and failed to beat a rival home on his only previous try over 1m; returns from three months off.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (12/1 -33%)Francisco |
12/1(-33%) | (4) Francisco 12/1, Bit below best beaten 4l off this mark here last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; back on last winning mark, but more required. Two wins from 23 starts include one here over 7f at April; left the impression he's still in form after missing the break here over 7f last week but he's been well beaten in two previous tries over 1m; stamina to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (50/1 -127%)Withoutfurtherado |
50/1(-127%) | (9) Withoutfurtherado 50/1, Below form again, didn't see out trip beaten 9l in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; effective 6-9f, acts on soft, good and AW; needs to bounce back over shorter. 16-race maiden but he was runner-up in a 0-80 at York (1m, good to firm) last summer; however, he's struggled in two starts since joining this stable and others look to have stronger claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (9/1 +44%)Onslow Gardens |
9/1(+44%) | (5) Onslow Gardens 9/1, Below form down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective 1m, gets 10f, all form on a sound surface and AW; long-standing maiden, struggles for consistency. 22-race maiden but he has finished in the first three on seven occasions; however, he was down the field at Wolverhampton on his yard debut three weeks ago and needs to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (20/1 -25%)Muy Muy Loco |
20/1(-25%) | (3) Muy Muy Loco 20/1, Didn't see out longer trip beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Kempton last time; effective 7-10f, acts on a sound surface and AW; needs to bounce back reduced in distance. Both wins have been here over 1m2f, the most recent coming in February off 3lb higher; below his best over 1m3f at Kempton (refused ro settle) in March when last seen and will need them to go a good gallop now that he's dropping back to 1m.. |

Mount Mogan won here in February before returning from a break with a fine effort to finish fourth at Epsom when sent off at a massive price. The return to the all-weather warrants him a place on the shortlist, along with recent Wolverhampton scorer Manton Road, but the vote goes to BAJAN BANDIT. The six-year-old has displayed signs that a victory isn't far off and this might be the time to catch him.

1st (1) (10/11 +27%)Kalpana |
10/11(+27%) | (1) Kalpana 10/11, Winner of three G1s; perfectly placed, very game and won on merit in King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Group 1) at Ascot by 1 1/2l last time; looks the one to beat on the balance of form.. Poetry in motion up the straight at Ascot where's she registered all three of her Group 1 wins, on a range of ground, crowned by the King George (1m4f, good to firm) last month; unraced here but also shone at Newbury on 2026 reappearance; as today's chief rival on ratings is Minnie Hauk, who finished well adrift of her in the King George, this mare is the one to beat.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (25/1 +0%)Sparan Nua |
25/1(+0%) | (8) Sparan Nua 25/1, Bit below form down to a mile perhaps wanting further when fourth beaten 3l in the 8f Desmond Stakes (Group 3) at Leopardstown latest; effective 8-12f, acts on yielding and fast ground; more needed at this level back up in trip. Unraced on worse than good to yielding; won first three races, notably a 1m4f Group 3 at Cork in June; had to be switched 2f out in Irish Oaks at the Curragh (1m4f, good to firm) next time, keeping fairly close tabs on Inis Mor thereafter as both came from well off the pace to be placed, but Johanna Walsh had gone well beyond recall; while that might have promised better still, she needs to leave this month's flop at Leopardstown way behind her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (4/1 -14%)Minnie Hauk |
4/1(-14%) | (2) Minnie Hauk 4/1, Oaks winner; won this last year; raced keenly back up in trip near pace and disappointed well beaten in King George VI And Queen Elizabeth Stakes (Group 1) at Ascot latest; top jockey back on board; capable of bounce back. 1m4f Group 1 wins last summer in the Oaks, Irish Oaks and Yorkshire Oaks before she was beaten a head in the Arc de Triomphe at Longchamp; creditable runner-up to top-class Ombudsman at Royal Ascot this June but disappointing either side of that and well adrift of Kalpana in the King George at Ascot last time; can go head to head with Kalpana if back to her best.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (20/1 +0%)Earth Shot |
20/1(+0%) | (4) Earth Shot 20/1, Very disappointing for no obvious reason comfortably held in Irish Oaks (Group 1) at The Curragh last time; iwon the Ribblesdale previous start; effective at 10-12f, acts on a sound surface; needs more at this level. Second on soft ground in her only 2yo race; vastly better form on good/good to firm this season, most notably when catching Johanna Walsh on the line in Group 2 Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot; the placings were reversed big time in the Irish Oaks (again 1m4f on good to firm) one month later, which wasn't her true running but she now needs to resume progress and in a major way.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (25/1 -108%)Tattycoram |
25/1(-108%) | (3) Tattycoram 25/1, Suited by the stiff finish and improved winning going away in the Lancashire Oaks (Group 2) at Newmarket (July) by 4 1/2l last time; suited by stiff 12f, stays further, acts on any; big, progressive filly who likes a solid test of stamina at 12f. Progressive 3yo on varied ground last season who won a Listed race at Goodwood (1m4f, good) in May on her 2026 reappearance; it was a revelation, though, when she responded so well to sustained pressure to assert by four and a half lengths in the Group 2 Lancashire Oaks at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) early last month; problem today is that the Group 1 Yorkshire version includes much more daunting opposition.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (5/1 -11%)Johanna Walsh |
5/1(-11%) | (6) Johanna Walsh 5/1, Travelled best, quickened clear impressively and improved when winning Irish Oaks (Group 1) at The Curragh by 4l last time; effective 10-12f, acts on most; this tougher but probably best of 3yo's. Third in a soft-ground maiden on reappearance; huge advances in her three starts since, notably when pipped by Earth Shot at Royal Ascot and 4l winner of Irish Oaks at the Curragh (both 1m4f on good to firm); the latter was in smooth style, as she skipped clear over 1f out before Inis Mor ran on into second, while Earth Shot disappointed in sixth; any further improvement would make her a serious rival for the older stars in this race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (100/1 -100%)Sugar Island |
100/1(-100%) | (9) Sugar Island 100/1, Beaten 3f out, ground probably too fast down the field in Irish Oaks (Group 1) at The Curragh most recent; effective up to 12, acts well on easy surfaces; nothing more than a pacemaker for stablemate here. 2yo Group 3 winner on heavy who was 6l behind Legacy Link when third in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) this June; tailed off when 20-1 in Irish Oaks (made most) last time, which was her first run both on good to firm and in cheekpieces; likely to have neither of those today but she is comfortably bottom of this pack on ratings; could have front-running duties.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (20/1 -25%)Inis Mor |
20/1(-25%) | (5) Inis Mor 20/1, Worth marking up having had too much to do after winner got first run when second beaten 4l in Irish Oaks (Group 1) at The Curragh latest; effective 10-12f, acts on a sound surface; could get closer to Johanna Walsh this time. Ran well on soft as 2yo, confined to good or good to firm this season; beat Earth Shot by a head in Listed race at Goodwood in May, which preceded fine Group 1 placed efforts in the 10.4f Prix de Diane at Chantilly and 1m4f Irish Oaks at the Curragh; saw out the 1m4f well but Johanna Walsh was 4l ahead.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (12/1 +40%)Legacy Link |
12/1(+40%) | (7) Legacy Link 12/1, Beaten when hampered and eased after, ground probably too quick in the Ribblesdale Stakes (Group 2) at Ascot last time; second in the Oaks previous start; stays 12f, acts on good to soft and good, has a round action; should return to form given an easier surface. Won the Group 3 Musidora here (10.2f, good) in May and a clear second in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) in June, albeit no match for the winning stablemate of Johanna Walsh; favourite for the Ribblesdale at Royal Ascot (good to firm) but already no answers when hampered over 1f out; she'd be far from the first to find that race coming too soon after the Oaks and could bounce back, but today's task requires a huge career best.. |

KALPANA beat a field of the highest order when she won the King George at Ascot and the face value of that stellar effort is very hard to see beyond. Minnie Hauk needs to bounce back from her effort in the aforementioned contest, when only beating one rival home, and last year's heroine is better judged on her second to Ombudsman in the Prince Of Wales's at the Royal meeting. Johanna Walsh fended off Inis Mor (second), Sparan Nua (third), Earth Shot (sixth) and Sugar Island (last) to win the Irish Oaks last month and she is a rising star that could also have a big say.

1st (3) (15/8 +32%)Race To The Stars |
15/8(+32%) | (3) Race To The Stars 15/8, Ran to form beaten a neck off a 2lb lower mark at Chelmsford last time; top course trainer; returning from long layoff; effective 11/12f, acts on good to soft and AW; potential improver on reappearance. Made a winning debut at Southwell (1m3f, Tapeta) last autumn; flopped at Ascot next time but he bounced back with a close call on handicap debut at Chelmsford (1m2f, AW; 11-4 favourite) in November; 2lb higher on his return but he has plenty of stamina in his pedigree and is open to more progress on this step up to 1m4f; interesting contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (13/2 +13%)First Officer |
13/2(+13%) | (6) First Officer 13/2, Ran to form, better than bare result beaten a length off this mark here last time; suited by 9-12f, acts on most; generally consistent, on last winning mark, chance once again. C\u0026D winner last July and he's finished close up back at this track (1m4f, good to firm) in his last two starts; didn't get much luck when fourth in a Class 3 event last time and he's a player off unchanged mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (10/3 +17%)Be Patient |
10/3(+17%) | (5) Be Patient 10/3, Scored by 1 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark at Doncaster penultimate start; ran to form second beaten 1/2l off 85 last time, 1lb higher here; effective at 8-10f, acts on fast ground and AW; progressive, still has more to come. Has form figures of 3112 and that latest second was a close call in a Redcar handicap (1m2f, good to firm) last month; now goes up in trip and grade and but he's only 1lb higher than last time and he should have more to offer; dangerous.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (14/1 +13%)Astro King |
14/1(+13%) | (1) Astro King 14/1, Another step closer to best form beaten 3l off this mark at Southwell last time; effective 8-12f, acts best on a sound surface; appears to be going in the right direction after long time off, but still needs a bit more. Has been smart in his time and is now 10lb lower than when winning the 2023 Cambridgeshire; returned after a long absence in May, but he's been working his way back to form and was only beaten around 2l when fifth at Southwell (1m3f, AW) last time; looks worth another try at this trip and he's in the mix back on turf.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (2/1 +0%)Round The Table |
2/1(+0%) | (4) Round The Table 2/1, Took another step forward when winning a novice at Doncaster by a neck last time; tongue-tie first time; effective 10f, acts on a sound surface; chance to complete hat-trick on handicap debut. Easy winner of a Ffos Las maiden (1m2f, good) in June and he made it 2-3 when following up with a front-running win in a Doncaster novice (1m2f, good to firm) last month; now steps up in trip but he pulled 11l clear with the runner-up last time and he's strongly respected off what looks a fair opening mark; tongue-tie added.. |

A case of sorts can be made for most of these, with a speculative vote going the way of ROUND THE TABLE. Held in high regard by connections, the son of Camelot defied a penalty when successful over 1m2f at Doncaster and looks one to keep on side now handicapping. Race To The Stars makes his belated reappearance having finished a close second at Chelmsford on his handicap bow last November, while Tycoon and Be Patient are others to consider.

1st (13) (15/2 -50%)Powder Monkey |
15/2(-50%) | (13) Powder Monkey 15/2, Below form of latest down to 6f beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Windsor last time; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; strong sort, step back up in trip will suit. One of the youngsters in this field and he's had just four races, below-form sixth of 14 last time on handicap debut at Windsor (6f; 15-2); earlier efforts, including on Tapeta, means he can't be dismissed.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +50%)Red Hat Eagle |
4/1(+50%) | (1) Red Hat Eagle 4/1, Ran roughly to form beaten 4l in a handicap here last time; in good form prior; tongue-tie first time; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface and AW; needs a bit more. Winner here but that was in 2023 and there's been no win anywhere since July 2024; not far away this summer and he continues down the weights but latest performance (C\u0026D) won't cut the mustard; first-time tongue-tie joins the recent cheekpieces.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (11/2 +39%)The Bitter Moose |
11/2(+39%) | (3) The Bitter Moose 11/2, Ran to form 4 1/4l third in a handicap at Brighton most recent run; off a short-break; suited by 7f, effective at 6f, acts on a sound surface and AW; generally consistent, but needs a bit more. C\u0026D scorer in 2023 who also won at Epsom (made all; 3lb higher today) last August; 2026 performances don't look good enough, third of five on last two outings.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (18/1 -50%)Yachtsman |
18/1(-50%) | (12) Yachtsman 18/1, Much below form beaten 9l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; in good form prior; effective 6/7f, best at former, acts on good and AW; mark could be on the stiff side still. Close fourth over C\u0026D in March and off the mark at Windsor (6f, good) in May; off 57 days before failing to figure at Wolverhampton (16-1) five weeks ago, but he's not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (4/1 +0%)Gunfighter |
4/1(+0%) | (5) Gunfighter 4/1, Scored by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Southwell penultimate start; ran about to form seventh beaten 4l off 69 last time, same mark here; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; competitive mark, but bit to prove at a mile. Turned things around with a win at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) last month but he was only seventh of ten in his follow-up bid at Wolverhampton (favourite); used to act on Polytrack; in-form yard also runs Split Elevens; inconsistent.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (33/1 -65%)Bold Suitor |
33/1(-65%) | (2) Bold Suitor 33/1, Below form well beaten in a handicap here latest; effective 7/8f, almost all form on AW, but acts on good; just 1lb above last winning mark, but form is going the wrong way. Eight AW wins and latest was over C\u0026D (April); backward steps in his two starts since, finishing last of seven on latest (C\u0026D; 33-1) after two months off but he now drops back in class.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (40/1 -21%)Dontspoilasale |
40/1(-21%) | (9) Dontspoilasale 40/1, Below form back up in trip beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Brighton last time; enjoys making it; effective 5/6f, most form on AW; all to prove on current form. No significant impact in his three runs for this yard, although he wasn't beaten far on second occasion; attractively weighted on lots of Irish AW form, so needs a close look; market reference recommended.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (6/1 +29%)State Of Madness |
6/1(+29%) | (7) State Of Madness 6/1, Bit below form when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Brighton latest; effective 6/7f, acts on both sides of good and AW; 1lb below last winning mark, could go well. 1-18 on other AW tracks (unraced here) but there's plenty on turf and AW to suggest that he has each-way claims.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (9/2 +68%)Starlight Sami |
9/2(+68%) | (10) Starlight Sami 9/2, Scored by a neck off a 2lb lower mark at Salisbury three starts back; step back in the right direction, but didn't fully see out a mile seventh beaten 6l off 71 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; needs to bounce back after last couple of starts. Placed on four occasions prior to his 7f win at Salisbury in May off 2lb lower; disappointing on both starts since but with possible excuses (early scrimmaging/1m) and he has proved himself over C\u0026D; needs a second look.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (14) (20/1 -122%)Paranjape |
20/1(-122%) | (14) Paranjape 20/1, Ran about to form beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap at Southwell last time; cheekpieces first time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, stamina still to prove at a mile, acts on AW; mark continues to ease and can build on latest efforts back down in trip. Suited by AW and won at Wolverhampton (6f maiden) in November, with two bits of form on Chelmsford Polytrack too; beaten a neck at Southwell (6f) in April but below form since over 6f, 7f and 1m, so others look more solid; wears headgear first time.. |

11th (8) (28/1 +0%)Double Time |
28/1(+0%) | (8) Double Time 28/1, Well below form down the field in a handicap at Sandown most recent; wide draw; effective 8f, acts with plenty of cut and AW; just 1lb above last winning mark, but needs to bounce back. Front-runner whose most recent win was at Kempton (1m, AW) last October off 1lb lower; not so good in his only four races since; absent 187 days before his last of 12 at Sandown four weeks ago, so he's a touch speculative this time.. |

C&D winner THE BITTER MOOSE has slipped to a competitive mark and could be the one to side with in a tricky event for punters. Red Hat Eagle is worth a second look in the betting market with a first-time tongue-tie applied, while Powder Monkey is open to further progress and makes some appeal towards the foot of the handicap.

1st (11) (11/1 +8%)Prizeland |
11/1(+8%) | (11) Prizeland 11/1, Ran to form when second beaten 2l in Glasgow Stakes (Listed) at Hamilton latest; effective 10-12f well, acts on firm ground and AW; small filly, but competitive at this level. Sister to 2022 Derby second Hoo Ya Mal; dual AW novice winner (1m/1m4f); runner-up in the Lingfield Oaks Trial (11.6f, good to firm) before fifth of 15 in the Italian Oaks (10.5f, good) and second to an impressive winner in Listed race at Hamilton (1m3f, good to firm), which were all useful form but she'll need to find a bit extra.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (9/1 -80%)Rhapsody |
9/1(-80%) | (6) Rhapsody 9/1, Ran to best back up in trip when second beaten 3 1/2l in Meadow Court Stakes (Group 3) at The Curragh latest; effective 8-10f, acts on a sound surface; can go well again here. Won debut on good to soft, no impression in her one race on soft; 1m1f handicap winner here last September and, having finished well for fourth of 24 over 1m this season at Royal Ascot, she ran on into second of eight when trying 1m2f again in Group 3 at the Curragh on latest outing; races a bit freely but her dam was pretty useful at this trip; each-way form chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (25/1 +69%)Capichera |
25/1(+69%) | (9) Capichera 25/1, Below form, market expected a lot better 1 1/4l third in a handicap at Windsor most recent run; effective 8-10f, could get further, acts on sound surface; plenty more needed at this level. Long odds-on for her Pontefract novice win (1m, good; acts on good to soft) in June; close third of seven when 5-6 for a handicap at Windsor one month ago on the move up to 1m2f and she's by Australia, which boosts hopes for 1m4f; she has the lowest rating in this field, however.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (15/2 +46%)Summerson |
15/2(+46%) | (12) Summerson 15/2, Improved again when winning a maiden at Ffos Las by 13l last time easing down; effective 8-12f, acts on a sound surface; progressive moving up through trips, deserves a crack at this level. Hooded on all three starts; kicked off this summer with two seconds, on the strength of which she was 11-10 favourite at Ffos Las (1m4f, good) late last month in another maiden, which she proceeded to win by 13l after leading over 1f out; only four ran in that steadily run race and this is a very different proposition, but she strode clear in great style and looks useful.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (14) (10/3 +70%)Vauntingly |
10/3(+70%) | (14) Vauntingly 10/3, Ran to form up in class when second beaten a short-head in Marble City Stakes (Listed) at Gowran Park latest; effective 9-12f, acts with cut and on good; progressing and can go well again at this level. Clearcut win from the front in a maiden at Killarney (11.3f, good) in her fourth race, having been second on soft the time before; came from midfield when short-headed by a stablemate in seven-runner Listed race at Gowran Park (1m4f, good; the third won a Group 3 next time) last month, producing another improved effort and making her a big player in these calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (17/2 +53%)Perfect Your Craft |
17/2(+53%) | (5) Perfect Your Craft 17/2, Ran to form 7l third in Stanerra Stakes (Group 3) at Fairyhouse most recent start; suited by 10-12f, acts on heavy and good; consistent, but others preferred. 3-6 for Ralph Beckett, including a 1m4f handicap win at Newmarket last October on good ground (previous wins were on heavy and good to soft); similar form this season in Ireland over 1m2f, 1m4f and 1m6f for new yard, without a win but the last two of those assignments were Group 3 (with cheekpieces enlisted) and she has a similar form chance to most in this line-up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (22/1 +12%)Merveilleux Lapin |
22/1(+12%) | (3) Merveilleux Lapin 22/1, Ran to form 5l third in a handicap at Ascot most recent run; effective 10-12f, acts on most; Polish Oaks winner, clearly capable of a good run at this level, but needs more to win. Ex-Polish filly who has won on soft; minor honours this term over 1m2f in handicap at Windsor (unlucky) and over 1m4f in both a Listed event at Pontefract (fourth of nine) and handicap at Ascot; needs to find a bit extra but has similar form to most in this field.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (40/1 -150%)Ryka |
40/1(-150%) | (7) Ryka 40/1, Below form under penalty, needing run beaten 9 1/2l in Daisy Warwick Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at Goodwood last time; returning from another break; effective 10-12f, acts on any; mightily progressive last term, should come on for latest. Showed she stays 1m4f well in two races on good to soft last autumn, latterly with a clearcut Listed win at Toulouse; well below form in her only start this season (start of May) but interesting if she's back on song.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (22/1 +12%)K Sarra |
22/1(+12%) | (10) K Sarra 22/1, Returned to form back down in class beaten 7l in Aphrodite Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at Newmarket (July) last time; blinkers first time; stays 10f, acts on good and AW; still has stamina to prove over this trip. Sister to connections' Pride Of Arras, last year's Dante and Great Voltigeur winner at this track; this filly's best effort has likewise been at York, when third in the Group 3 Musidora (10.2f, good) in May; however, tailing off in the Oaks at Epsom (good to soft; 18-1) and seventh of nine in Listed race at Newmarket, both 1m4f, weaken her case considerably; headgear is now enlisted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (50/1 -52%)Ashariba |
50/1(-52%) | (1) Ashariba 50/1, Back from Jersey and very weak effort well beaten in Hoppings Fillies' Stakes (Group 3) at Newcastle latest; effective 10f, acts with cut, on good and AW; off a short-break; more needed. Made most for Listed win at Saint-Cloud last October and reappeared this May with a respectable Listed second in France, both 1m2f on soft; won over 1m3f in 2024 and she now looks worth a crack at 1m4f; first, though, she needs to bounce back after tailing off in an AW Group 3 (20-1) eight weeks ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (4) (11/2 -65%)Morrophore |
11/2(-65%) | (4) Morrophore 11/2, Progressed again when winning a handicap at Lingfield by a head last time; trainer in form; suited by 8-10f, acts on a sound surface and AW; touch quirky but talented, progressive and well worth this step up in class. Tail flasher who has looked a bit tricky at times but she's also won four of her eight starts; did it well in a handicap at Ascot (good to firm) in May 2025 and, with Ryan Moore taking over, she then justified short-priced favouritism in last-gasp fashion in two hot AW handicaps at Lingfield last winter; those wins were 1m2f and she's unraced beyond that, but three siblings scored at 1m3f or 1m4f; absent since January but those last two 1m2f AW wins make her the clear form pick.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (2) (28/1 -40%)Club Class |
28/1(-40%) | (2) Club Class 28/1, Took a step forward up in trip when second beaten a length in Aphrodite Fillies' Stakes (Listed) at Newmarket (July) latest; effective 10-12f, acts on a sound surface and AW; needs to prove she's not flattered by latest. Second off handicap marks of 79 and 81 this summer, so filling the same position in nine-runner Listed race at Newmarket (1m4f, good to firm) on latest outing was the first inkling that she might be able to hold her own at this level; wore cheekpieces on last two starts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (8) (7/2 +30%)A La Prochaine |
7/2(+30%) | (8) A La Prochaine 7/2, Very similar to Cheshire Oaks run getting out-kicked when fourth beaten 10l in the Oaks at Epsom latest; stays 12f well, acts on soft and good; can go well in calmer waters. Won at Newbury (1m, soft) on sole 2yo start and beaten about 3l in the Listed Cheshire Oaks at Chester (11.3f, good) on return; 22-1, stuck to her task well for a never-dangerous, 10l fourth of nine in the Oaks at Epsom (1m4f, good to soft) 11 weeks ago; off since but could have more improvement in her and 1m4f on rain-softened ground would seemingly hold no fears.. |

Morrophore gamely landed the Winter Oaks at Lingfield when last seen and the dependable five-year-old, who has won four of her last six starts, looks a key player. However, respect aside, the fillies' classic at Epsom carries more substance and the Oaks fourth A LA PROCHAINE could be the way to go with her sights lowered. We have yet to see the best of this low-mileage daughter of Lope De Vega and the firmer underfoot conditions can assist for an improved display. Rhapsody is a course winner who may progress for stepping up in trip, while Without Prejudice won cosily on her Newmarket debut and offers a bit of intrigue in these deeper waters.

1st (4) (11/2 -57%)Mr Writer |
11/2(-57%) | (4) Mr Writer 11/2, Scored by a neck off a 4lb lower mark at Leicester penultimate start; below form sixth beaten 4 1/4l off 82 last time, same mark here; effective 6/7f, might not stay a mile, acts on sound surface and AW; mark still looks fair, but needs to bounce back. Two narrow wins over 7f (good to firm) either side of apparently failing to stay 1m at Goodwood in June but he found just the one pace when sixth of 11 at Ascot last month and it remains to be seen whether he's still on a winning mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (11/8 +31%)Cherry Cobbler |
11/8(+31%) | (1) Cherry Cobbler 11/8, Ran to form landing a handicap by 6l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; best at 7f, acts on a sound surface and AW; in red-hot form, goes well here, can follow up off new mark. Has had plenty of racing since winning on the Rowley course (7f, good) under Chloe Lyons in May but he found something new when striding right away over this C\u0026D (good to firm) on Saturday; due an 8lb rise so 3lb well in; much respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/2 +36%)Cancan In The Rain |
9/2(+36%) | (5) Cancan In The Rain 9/2, Bit below form beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at York last time; in good form prior; cheekpieces first time; effective 7/8f, acts on sound surface, goes well Newmarket July course; had been thriving since visor fitted, could bounce back. Two course wins at 1m; two good efforts for new yard this year but a promising-looking run came to nothing when back over 1m at York last time; still worth a look returned to 7f in his first course run since last summer's win; first-time cheekpieces replace regular visor.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (16/1 -33%)Dashing Dick |
16/1(-33%) | (9) Dashing Dick 16/1, Below form again beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap here last time; effective from 6-8f, acts on most; inconsistent, but a course specialist on a dangerous mark nonetheless. He's won over 7f but his two July course wins came over 6f; well handicapped now and although his form seems to have slacked off since he went close over this C\u0026D in June this is his first 7f run since; not ruled out.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (33/1 -32%)Here I Bow |
33/1(-32%) | (7) Here I Bow 33/1, Much below form well beaten in a handicap at Brighton latest; second run after wind op; effective 7f, plenty to prove at a mile, suited by cut; yet to show French promise for new yard, firm ground also a concern again. Soft-ground winner at 7f in France last June; big prices and well held over 7f and 1m for new yard, the latest after wind surgery, but she's dropped just 6lb and looks to have a way to go before she's well handicapped.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (50/1 -317%)Piscean Star |
50/1(-317%) | (8) Piscean Star 50/1, Below form on handicap debut when fourth beaten 4l in a handicap at Kempton latest; effective 7f, acts on AW; needs to bounce back on turf for just second time. Successful AW debut as 2yo but was up against it in a sales race next time (sole turf run); back on the AW since, running well in a 7f Chelmsford novice on final 2yo start and doing as well as could be expected on his recent belated reappearance; has a surface query back on turf but should have some potential off this mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (25/1 -233%)Sun Of Dolly |
25/1(-233%) | (10) Sun Of Dolly 25/1, Ran to form beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Epsom last time; effective 6/7f, acts on both cut and fast ground; chance if building on latest. Lightly raced maiden; in good form in 7f Epsom handicaps, persevering well when runner-up latest, and although he has more to do in this higher grade with a stiffer test at the trip he can be on the premises.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (25/1 +0%)Sunny Smile |
25/1(+0%) | (6) Sunny Smile 25/1, Below form comfortably held in a handicap at Sandown last time; second run after wind op; suited by 6/7f, acts on soft and both sides of good; needs to bounce back. Made all for 6f maiden win as 2yo; best form of 2026 when second of six at Sandown (7f) last month but he didn't repeat it there next time on return from wind surgery and has had a few chances off similar marks now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (15/2 +25%)Paladin |
15/2(+25%) | (3) Paladin 15/2, Below form down the field in a handicap at Redcar most recent; suited by 8/9f, acts on good to firm and AW; struggling for consistency of late. His first win came over 7f (soft) but better at 1m now, getting up late to win on Wolverhampton AW when making his yard debut in January and finding only a subsequent winner too good at Ascot last month; out of sorts at Redcar since though and reverts to 7f with something to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (12/1 -20%)Where's Freddy |
12/1(-20%) | (2) Where's Freddy 12/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 2lb lower mark here penultimate start; played up in stalls, missed break and virtually pulled up ninth beaten 65l off 79 last time, same mark here; effective 7/8f, acts on most; likes it here and just 2lb above last win, but can be tricky. His win in July took C\u0026D record to 3-4 (good to soft and good to firm); had a very awkward start here since and was soon tailed off (stablemate Cherry Cobbler was second) but, given his fine strike-rate here, he can't easily be left out.. |

CHERRY COBBLER left a couple of last-start winners trailing in his wake when romping home over C&D last weekend. That gives the form a solid look and Stuart Williams' charge can strike again now 3lb well-in, despite his 5lb penalty. Where's Freddy stumbled at the start here last time and is better judged on his earlier victory over track and trip. He could prove competitive off only 2lb higher, while Piscean Star has plenty of scope and might also have a say.

1st (11) (11/2 -22%)Fuseboard |
11/2(-22%) | (11) Fuseboard 11/2, Bit free but improved under positive handling on second start after wind op when winning a classified race at Wolverhampton by 3 1/2l last time; bred to be suited by 6-8f but appears effective 5f; may have more to offer now he's had his head in front. He has offered more following wind and gelding operations, fourth over 7f here in May before a commanding front-running win at Wolverhampton (5f) last month; an 8lb rise unlikely to prove beyond him and he's a key player despite his wide stall.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (9/4 +44%)Royal County Glory |
9/4(+44%) | (2) Royal County Glory 9/4, Bit below form up in trip beaten 8l in a handicap at Gowran Park last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; effective 5-7f, acts on AW, good; consistent, respected once again. The winner of one of his 11 starts in Ireland, namely a 7f handicap at Dundalk in April; makes his stable debut at a realistic level and the betting should be informative after an 80-day break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (12) (7/1 +7%)Apex Star |
7/1(+7%) | (12) Apex Star 7/1, Every chance, bit below form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Leicester last time; suited by 6/7f, acts on good and AW; maiden has been inconsistent in short career but competitively weighted. 0-9 but he has run several good races in defeat this summer, most recently finishing third of eight at Leicester (6f, good to firm) four weeks ago; each-way shout once again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/1 -20%)Dark Mandate |
9/1(-20%) | (5) Dark Mandate 9/1, Ran to form despite being too keen beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Kempton last time; hood first time; returning from long layoff; effective 5-6f, handles fast ground but action suggests give would help; return to further could suit. Ran his best race for Charles Hills when third of 12 in a 6f Kempton nursery 302 days ago; gelded during his absence and returns off a 2lb lower mark and with a hood fitted; interesting on stable debut (same owner).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (12/1 +33%)Mister Moet |
12/1(+33%) | (8) Mister Moet 12/1, Ran roughly to current form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Brighton last time; effective 5/6f, acts on sound surface; back below last winning mark, bit more needed. Two course wins earlier in the year; running okay with quite being at his best this summer; on a competitive mark and he can't be discounted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (10/1 +60%)King Cherry |
10/1(+60%) | (9) King Cherry 10/1, Hung badly on camber when tiring, didn't enjoy track, made too much use of well beaten in a handicap at Brighton latest; sprint-bred, acts on AW; needs more to figure in handicaps. Unplaced in all five starts, including 7f handicaps on last two runs; edging down the weights and dropping in trip could help; not especially solid though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (28/1 -75%)Lieutenant Sir |
28/1(-75%) | (10) Lieutenant Sir 28/1, Scored by a length off a 3lb lower mark at Ffos Las three starts back; made too much use of, stopped quickly last time, 1lb lower here; blinkers first time; effective at 6f, acts on good and AW; bounce back needed. Beat five rivals at Ffos Las (6f, good) in June but he has followed that with two heavy defeats; new blinkers need to turn things around.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (4/1 +0%)Pennine Way |
4/1(+0%) | (7) Pennine Way 4/1, Ran to form just caught late having got racing a fair way out beaten a neck off a 1lb lower mark at Brighton last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good and AW; fair mark if building on recent improvement. Seven-race maiden but she has been placed in 7f handicaps on her last two starts; has the pace to be effective back at 6f; still has time to deliver an improved showing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (14/1 -56%)Reality Queen |
14/1(-56%) | (1) Reality Queen 14/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Bath penultimate start; poorly placed in race dominated from front last time; suited by 6f, acts on fast ground and AW; form in and out but mark fair. The winner of two of her 11 starts, both over 5.7f at Bath on fast ground; only fourth back at Bath last time and she will need a career best to defy top weight; unplaced all four AW starts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (22/1 +33%)Mayfair Market |
22/1(+33%) | (3) Mayfair Market 22/1, Continued in poor form beaten 10l in a handicap at Yarmouth last time; blinkers first time; effective 6f-1m, acts on a sound surface; needs more than of late. Some promise as a 2yo; struggled this year and although she is easing down the weights, the new blinkers and drop in trip need to have a transformative effect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (33/1 -50%)Solar Phoenix |
33/1(-50%) | (6) Solar Phoenix 33/1, Never travelled, looked unwilling beaten 6l in a handicap at Brighton last time; effective at 8f, acts on soft, good to soft and AW; temperament a concern, best watched for now. His two handicap runs have been unconvincing, including when tried in blinkers at Brighton (7f, good to firm) two weeks ago; drop to 6f not enough to tempt.. |

FUSEBOARD made all to win decisively in a classified event at Wolverhampton last month and has enough scope to make a deeper impact on just his second start in a handicap. Reality Queen and Apex Star go on the shortlist after respectable efforts in defeat. However, Pennine Way, who was a good second at Brighton, is another pacy type and might be the biggest danger if switching to Polytrack for the first time initiates a step forward.

1st (11) (5/4 +58%)Sea Of Dubka |
5/4(+58%) | (11) Sea Of Dubka 5/4, Improved up in trip under positive ride when winning a handicap at Down Royal by 3 1/2l last time; progressive on Flat at up to 13f, acts on good, major player on hurdle debut. Easily won her seventh Flat start in a Down Royal handicap off 61 last time (1m5f, good); brings that positive form to hurdles now and should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (11/4 -10%)Minella Buoy |
11/4(-10%) | (8) Minella Buoy 11/4, Ran to form just flattening out late having raced freely when second beaten 5 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe latest; effective 2m1f on good; improvement likely if settling and sets the standard on hurdle form. Has left moderate Flat form behind with runner-up finishes in two starts over hurdles; beaten a neck over C\u0026D in July but needs to settle better on the basis of his 5.5l defeat at Ballinrobe last time; best hurdles form on offer here but vulnerable to one more talented coming off the Flat.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (22/1 -38%)Misty Cove |
22/1(-38%) | (10) Misty Cove 22/1, Never involved on Flat return down the field in a handicap at Galway most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective 10/11f, acts on soft; could build on promising hurdle debut. One of two for trainer; won a Sligo Flat handicap off 71 in May but was 21l behind Harmani next time; just okay on C\u0026D hurdles debut here and tailed off back on Flat at Galway last time; others have more compelling claims; new headgear.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (300/1 -50%)Connor Of Mali |
300/1(-50%) | (4) Connor Of Mali 300/1, Unseated in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe latest; yet to show anything of note; plenty to find. Massive prices and ran like it in three starts over hurdles this summer; similar story likely.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (33/1 -32%)Guildhall Graduate |
33/1(-32%) | (9) Guildhall Graduate 33/1, Every chance, below form down the field in a handicap at Cork most recent; in moderate form on Flat at up to 12f; lot to find on hurdle debut One of two for trainer; rated 54 on Flat after no wins from nine starts; ran his best race at this track last month when fourth; others preferred on hurdling debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (40/1 -150%)Divelment |
40/1(-150%) | (5) Divelment 40/1, Green, mistakes, failed to build on debut well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe latest; seems effective 2m1f on good; improvement needed. Winless from 10 Flat starts and hasn't looked like the breakthrough was close in two recent starts over hurdles.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (25/1 -108%)Another Day Done |
25/1(-108%) | (1) Another Day Done 25/1, Bit below form having missed the break comfortably held in a handicap at Down Royal last time; in good form prior; off a short-break; 1m Flat winner worth a market check on hurdle debut. Showed good improvement for the addition of a visor at Dundalk in January when easily winning off 63 over 1m for former trainer Joseph O'Brien; okay efforts back there and at Leopardstown after that, but beaten 10.5l behind Harmani at Down Royal when last seen in May; Flat rating of 73 puts him in the mix on hurdling/stable debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (200/1 -203%)Manntari |
200/1(-203%) | (7) Manntari 200/1, Green under pressure well beaten in an auction race here only start; all to do. Tailed off here on Flat debut; hard to fancy after that.. |

3/1(-85%) | (6) Harmani 3/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 3l in a handicap at Leopardstown latest; 10f Flat winner proved consistent in that discipline; big chance starting out for top yard over hurdles. Emphatically won a Down Royal handicap for Ger Lyons in May (1m3f, good); okay efforts in three runs since leave him with the top Flat rating in this field of 82 after eight starts; obvious danger to all provided he takes to this discipline.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (2) (300/1 -200%)Camp Verde |
300/1(-200%) | (2) Camp Verde 300/1, Green, mistakes, modest debut well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe only start; all to prove. Tailed off at Ballinrobe on his debut in a similar contest ten days ago (2m1f, good, 100-1); unlikely.. |

|PU| (3) (15/2 +46%)Chairmanforlife |
15/2(+46%) | (3) Chairmanforlife 15/2, Outclassed up in grade down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; shaped with promise on Flat at up to 12f, very interesting on hurdle debut for top connections. Best of three Flat runs came at Ballinrobe in May when an 11l fourth; trainer reported he scoped dirty post-race when tailed off at Galway last time; others preferred unless market support arrives for his hurdles bow.. |

SEA OF DUBKA has recent winning form on the level and will be well schooled for today's jumps debut. Although her initial form was nothing special and she scored from a mark of just 61 last month, she will have no trouble staying National Hunt distances and it is encouraging that she goes jumping so soon after her recent Flat success. Harmani won't have done as much schooling as the selection, having joined Gordon Elliott from Ger Lyons in the past few weeks, but was nonetheless quite capable on the level and commands respect. Minella Buoy has jumps form and should be competitive.

1st (14) (3/1 +45%)Mia Fantasia |
3/1(+45%) | (14) Mia Fantasia 3/1, Ran about to form on handicap debut beaten 4l off this mark at Goodwood last time; effective 7f, acts on good to firm; still open to further progress in handicaps. All runs over 7f on good to firm, overcoming a slow start to win comfortably at Carlisle on debut before third to Dr Rascal (Rising Tiger second) in novice at Ascot; on the back of those efforts he went off a hot favourite for a Glorious Goodwood nursery but didn't get the chance to show what he could do, meeting trouble on a couple of occasions and doing well to finish sixth of 18; that performance strongly suggests he can go close at the least off this mark with more luck in running.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (19) (50/1 +0%)Theheatison |
50/1(+0%) | (19) Theheatison 50/1, Ran about to the balance of form beaten 1 1/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; needs to build on recent efforts. Bath novice win came over an extended 5f but he looked suited by the return to 7f when never-nearer third of seven in Newmarket nursery (good to firm) 12 days ago; needs to build on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (13) (22/1 -10%)Caeruleus |
22/1(-10%) | (13) Caeruleus 22/1, Ran to form up in class and trip on handicap debut beaten 3l off this mark at Goodwood last time; effective 6/7f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW; earlier form franked, should have more to come. First three starts over 6f, winning a Newcastle novice on the third; stepped up to 7f for his nursery debut and ran well for fifth (The Ginger Kid second) of 18 at Glorious Goodwood, albeit better positioned than some of today's reopposing rivals who finished behind him.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (4/1 +43%)Rising Tiger |
4/1(+43%) | (7) Rising Tiger 4/1, Yard won this last year; ran about to the balance of form when second beaten a neck in a novice at Southwell latest; first time with Oisin Murphy on board; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; big chance on handicap debut. Runner-up on all three starts; had Mia Fantasia in third at Ascot (7f, good to firm) on the second occasion and narrowly denied by Roosike at Southwell (7f, AW; now meets that rival on identical terms) last time; stall 21 could be tricky but Andrew Balding's excellent record in this race (three wins since 2021, including last year) makes him a must for the shortlist.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (9/2 +31%)Perfect Nation |
9/2(+31%) | (4) Perfect Nation 9/2, Ran to form when winning a novice at Ffos Las by a length last time; trainer in form; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; debut form franked, has shown plenty of promise, can complete hat-trick on handicap debut. Won novices at Lingfield (7f, AW) and Ffos Las (extended 7f, good) this summer; the fact he's gone off at 13-8 or shorter on all three starts suggest he's highly thought of by his leading yard, as do Group entries next month; handily drawn and Billy Loughnane is on him rather than stablemate Mirzimaan; interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (12/1 +14%)The Ginger Kid |
12/1(+14%) | (10) The Ginger Kid 12/1, Ran to form beaten 2l off a 1lb lower mark at Goodwood last time; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; consistent last couple of starts since handicapping, can go well again facing just a minor rise. Won a 6f novice at Nottingham (good) in early June; failed to fire in the Coventry at Royal Ascot but has bounced back with good seconds in 7f nurseries at Chester and Glorious Goodwood (a few of these rivals behind); didn't look entirely at ease on the course at Goodwood (hung right) and it's possible that this track will suit him better.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (28/1 -56%)Bymiddaytomorrow |
28/1(-56%) | (9) Bymiddaytomorrow 28/1, Progressed landing a handicap by a head off a 5lb lower mark at Thirsk last time; significant jockey booking; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; more needed off revised mark and at this level. Has improved for a step up to 7f, winning a maiden at Ayr (good to firm) and nursery at Thirsk (good) in recent weeks; further progress possible but it will be needed off this 5lb higher mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (22) (50/1 +24%)Fasthope |
50/1(+24%) | (22) Fasthope 50/1, Improved landing a handicap by a neck off a 5lb lower mark at Pontefract last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 6f, acts on good to soft and good; plenty more needed at this level. Got up close home to make a successful start to his nursery career over 6f at Pontefract (good) 44 days ago and the runner-up gave that form a boost when winning at Lingfield on Monday; the return to 7f may prompt more improvement but he is running off 9lb higher now (including 4lb out of handicap).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (50/1 +24%)My A'ali Baba |
50/1(+24%) | (8) My A'ali Baba 50/1, Below form up in grade in Stonehenge Stakes (Listed) at Salisbury last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 6/7f, acts with cut and on good; needs more dropping back into handicap company. Chepstow debut win in the spring came on good to soft, so he wouldn't have any issues should the forecast rain arrive; hasn't built on that significantly but he's one of a few in this line-up who didn't enjoy much luck in running in the Glorious Goodwood nursery over this trip last month and a Listed race was simply too much for him at Salisbury last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (7/1 +7%)Revels |
7/1(+7%) | (2) Revels 7/1, Took another step forward on handicap debut landing a good nursery by a short-head off a 5lb lower mark at Goodwood last time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; black-type limitations exposed at Royal Ascot, but can go very well again here. 7f Redcar debut scorer (good) in May; faded out of things in the Chesham at Royal Ascot next time but different proposition with sights lowered when pipping Dubai Champion (non-runner here on Wednesday) in 6f Glorious Goodwood nursery (good to firm); a 5lb rise demands further improvement but Group entries next month point to him being well regarded by his top stable; the draw could have been kinder.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (28/1 +30%)Shadow King |
28/1(+30%) | (3) Shadow King 28/1, Scored by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Doncaster penultimate start; bit below form up in class last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 6/7f, acts on both sides of good and AW; bit to prove at this level. Second success when getting up close home on nursery debut at Doncaster (extended 6f; good to firm; first-time blinkers); excuses when only midfield in a 7f Glorious Goodwood nursery the following week; his mark still looks favourable on the Doncaster form and his stable won this two years ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (16) (100/1 -100%)Koodini |
100/1(-100%) | (16) Koodini 100/1, Took a marked step forward up to 7f landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Catterick last time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on both sides of good; benefited from the step up in trip, but more needed in this class. Made it sixth time lucky when seeing off three rivals in a 7f Catterick nursery (good to firm) 29 days ago; that was his first attempt at this trip but he's 5lb higher in a significantly stronger race now; also drawn widest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (17) (100/1 -52%)High Hazard |
100/1(-52%) | (17) High Hazard 100/1, Well below form on handicap debut at Goodwood most recent start; cheekpieces first time; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on a sound surface; shown promise and had form franked, but needs a lot more now at this level. Behind several of these at Glorious Goodwood and first-time cheekpieces need to make a big difference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (15) (33/1 -83%)Roosike |
33/1(-83%) | (15) Roosike 33/1, Improved back up in trip when winning a 7f novice at Southwell by a neck last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good to firm and AW; open to further progress on handicap debut. Beaten a fair way when placed on first two outings and took a good step forward when holding on determinedly from the reopposing Rising Tiger in novice at Southwell (7f, AW) 24 days ago; meets that rival on the same terms.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (21) (125/1 +0%)Rbflying |
125/1(+0%) | (21) Rbflying 125/1, Below best again beaten 7 1/2l in a nursery at Goodwood last time; tongue-tie first time; effective 6f, stamina to prove at 7f, acts on good; looks flattered by novice third from a big price here three starts back, needs a lot more. His claims aren't obvious having finished well held in nurseries over 6f here (Big Cigar won) and 7f at Goodwood (behind five of these) on his last two starts; tongue tied first time; 3lb out of the handicap.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (6) (11/2 +15%)Weleyff |
11/2(+15%) | (6) Weleyff 11/2, Progressing with each start and landed a nursery by 1 1/4l off a 5lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; effective 7f, could get further yet, acts on good to firm; form franked, looks capable of defying rise in the weights. Progressing well, winning five-runner races (7f, good to firm) for a novice at Ayr and nursery at Doncaster in recent weeks; made all with something to spare at the latter track and a 5lb rise may not prevent another bold bid with the Ed Bethell stable in flying form; engaged in the Group 2 Champagne at Doncaster next month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (12) (25/1 -14%)Telegraphic |
25/1(-14%) | (12) Telegraphic 25/1, Ran to form when second beaten a neck in a novice at Yarmouth latest; effective 7f, acts on good to firm; shown plenty of promise in novice contests, not ruled out on handicap debut off opening mark. All starts over 7f on good to firm; took big step forward from debut fourth to Mia Fantasia when easily drawing clear by just over 7l at Brighton last month; backed that up when narrowly denied under a penalty at Yarmouth 18 days ago; looks on a competitive mark for his nursery debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (11) (9/1 +10%)Mirzimaan |
9/1(+10%) | (11) Mirzimaan 9/1, Ran to form when second beaten a short-head in a novice at Newcastle latest; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; should have more to come for good yard and top connections. Has raced just at 6f; too green on debut but took a significant step forward with his defeat of 17 rivals at Newbury (good to firm) last month; bettered that form and would have won with a clearer passage when only just failing to get up at Newcastle (AW) since; should have more to offer now moving up to 7f for his nursery debut but Billy Loughnane seemingly prefers stablemate Perfect Nation.. |

Andrew Balding has trained three of the six previous winners, but his Rising Tiger found Roosike too good in novice company at Southwell last month. The latter holds decent claims, while Billy Loughnane sticks with recent Ffos Las winner Perfect Nation ahead of stablemate Mirzimaan. However, REVELS already has a nursery win under his belt. The former landed a competitive affair over 6f at Goodwood and Karl Burke's charge looks worth sticking with having also won over this extra furlong on his debut back in May.

1st (4) (3/1 +0%)Traveling Man |
3/1(+0%) | (4) Traveling Man 3/1, Ran to form back down in grade beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Salisbury last time; trainer in form; effective 10f-12f, acts on good and fast ground; chance if building on latest. Best effort when third of six on 1m4f Salisbury handicap debut (good to firm) 26 days ago; a lightly raced profile provides hope that this well-bred sort may build on that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7/2 -40%)Sibling Rivelry |
7/2(-40%) | (1) Sibling Rivelry 7/2, Ran to very best beaten 1/2l off this mark here last time; suited by 12f, acts on sound surface and AW; still 4lb above last winning mark, but can be competitive again. Came from the rear to score on her reappearance at Windsor (11.5f, good to firm) in May; best effort since when 0.5l second to Society Girl over C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; same mark today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (11/4 +8%)Society Girl |
11/4(+8%) | (5) Society Girl 11/4, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; effective 12f, acts on good to firm; can go well again facing just a minor rise. First success when making all to beat the reopposing Sibling Rivelry by 0.5l over C\u0026D (good to firm) three weeks ago; only 2lb higher and doesn't face much obvious competition for the lead.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (5/2 +38%)Jack Langley |
5/2(+38%) | (3) Jack Langley 5/2, Scored by 4l off a 8lb lower mark at Lingfield three starts back; ran to form second beaten 2 1/4l off 67 last time, same mark here; effective 12-14f, stays 2m, acts on sound surface and AW; consistent and should remain competitive. Positive start for the Charlie Clover yard, readily landing a small-field affair at Lingfield (1m5f, good to firm) in June; better form when runner-up both starts since, latterly over 1m6f here on good to firm; should give another good account.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (10/1 +9%)Expressionless |
10/1(+9%) | (2) Expressionless 10/1, Ran to form 9 1/4l third in a handicap at Yarmouth most recent run; usually held up; effective 10-14f, acts on both sides of good and AW; 2lb below last winning mark, but needs to bounce back. Not at his best lately (well-held last of three latest) but is 2lb lower than when scoring over this trip on good in the spring so a revival wouldn't surprise with Dylan Cunha among the winners.. |

Sibling Rivelry found Society Girl too good over C&D, although she is weighted to turn the tables. She's also preferred to Jack Langley, who drops back in trip having placed over 1m6f here, but TRAVELING MAN could prove the one to side with. A solid third at Salisbury on last month's handicap bow, the son of Too Darn Hot may well take advantage of his unchanged mark and open his account with Charlie Fellowes' yard in fine form.

2/5(+40%) | (11) So Lovely 2/5, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; conceded first run to winner, ran to form when second beaten a head in a maiden at Goodwood latest; top course trainer; effective 7/8, acts on good and good to firm; dam a top class middle distance performer for this leading yard, debut form looks good, much more to come, will win soon. By Wootton Bassett out of Moyglare winner and dual Classic winner Love; made a promising introduction over 1m at this venue, keeping for second behind the favourite; just denied by her main market rival over 7f at Goodwood three weeks ago; will probably need further than this in time, but can make amends.. |

Slow starter when sixth in a strong maiden at the Curragh; stable well represented here, with riding plans pointing to the Group 1-entered Miss Hong Kong as the number one.. |

3rd (12) (16/1 -33%)Villaray |
16/1(-33%) | (12) Villaray 16/1, Yard has won last two runnings of race; green and never threatened having blown start beaten 7l in a maiden here on debut; sire sprinter, dam effective over 10f; should improve for initial experience but needs to. Might prefer further than this; was staying on late over C\u0026D on debut four weeks ago, beaten 7l in eight (of 12); runner-up won easily at Gowran last week.. |

Has shown definite signs of winning potential in maidens here and at the Curragh; this will qualify her for handicaps.. |

80/1(-220%) | (6) Katty 80/1, Outpaced, needed stiffer test beaten 7l in a maiden at The Curragh on debut; likely wants middle distances; will need further and more time. 50-1 when running respectably over 6f at the Curragh on recent debut; open to improvement.. |

13th (14) (200/1 -100%)Voyage Of Survival |
200/1(-100%) | (14) Voyage Of Survival 200/1, Outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test beaten 5l in a maiden at Chepstow last time; cheekpieces first time; bred to be suited by around 6/7f; major improvement needed, likely outclassed. Towards the back in races at Naas and Chepstow, cheekpieces fitted, faces tough task.. |

The Aidan O'Brien-trained SO LOVELY can shed her maiden tag at the third time of asking. Having caught the eye when staying on well to finish second here on debut, the daughter of Wootton Bassett proved slightly disappointing at Goodwood last time. However, she's likely better than that form and this looks a good opportunity for the Group 1 entrant to open her account. A well bred daughter of Kingman, Fair Say has to be respected on debut. Any market support for her should be noted, while Isle Of Capri is a likely improver.

1st (7) (25/1 -108%)Whizzy Dizzy |
25/1(-108%) | (7) Whizzy Dizzy 25/1, Outpaced, unsuited by way race developed, needed run well beaten in a handicap at Nottingham latest; cheekpieces first time; effective at 5/6f, acts on good and AW; in decent form over winter but needs to leave reappearance form behind. Came closest to a first win when reeled in late after setting the pace over C\u0026D last October; involved in another tight finish at Wolverhampton (5f) in February but not as good since, markedly so on turf in July; might yet come good with cheekpieces fitted and back at her best trip.. |

2nd (4) (5/2 +38%)Fiorella Princess |
5/2(+38%) | (4) Fiorella Princess 5/2, Not best placed behind all the way winner beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Nottingham last time; returning from a break; effective 5/6f on soft and AW; still 3lb above last win mark but in decent form until latest. Losing run goes back to last September (5f, turf) but she ran creditably in better AW races than this earlier in the year and has won and gone well fresh in the past; interesting to see what another change of yard does for her; usually tongue tied but not today.. |

Lightly raced filly whose front-running effort petered out at Windsor two starts ago but she made all either side of that at Wetherby (extended 5f) and Ayr (5f); has a new challenge in only her second AW start (fair effort at Newcastle as a 2yo) but she may yet do better.. |

Best form when winning 5f Southwell AW maiden in March for Karl Burke; has not run to her mark in handicaps at Ffos Las and back at Southwell in two runs for this yard and likely needs more weight off her back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (9/2 -29%)Over Spiced |
9/2(-29%) | (1) Over Spiced 9/2, Poorly placed behind all the way winner having been hampered at start 4 1/2l third in a handicap at Chepstow most recent run; suited by 5f, acts on a sound surface; reproduction of penultimate run would give significant chance. Four 5f turf wins for this yard in 2025 and in good form this summer, doing well to get as close as she did from the widest draw at Chester two starts ago; however, she's 0-5 on the AW and it may be significant that she hasn't run on sand since March 2025.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (28/1 -180%)Independent Expert |
28/1(-180%) | (2) Independent Expert 28/1, Outpaced, never threatened, unsuited by modest pace when fourth beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Windsor latest; usually held up; effective 6f-1m, acts on any; ex-Irish, bit to prove at present. Multiple wins at 7f-1m in Ireland, including on Polytrack, but she hasn't looked well treated on turf in Britain; has a lower AW mark but still has enough to prove in her first run over 5f.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (3/1 +14%)Queen Sana |
3/1(+14%) | (3) Queen Sana 3/1, Very disappointing given market support when fourth beaten 10l in a novice at Ripon latest; suited by 5/6f, acts on good to firm and AW; fair mark on best form but maiden looking exposed. 0-12 but she should find a race on the pick of her turf form this summer and she acts on Polytrack; should be suited by the return to 5f in her first AW handicap at the trip and has to be considered.. |

Sea Her Excel commands respect after winning two of her last three starts. However, she lacks experience on Polytrack and the betting could produce some clues regarding candidates more proven on the surface. FIORELLA PRINCESS has winning form at Chelmsford and is suggested as the first one to consider, while Whizzy Dizzy ran well to be second on her only previous attempt over C&D so could offer some each-way value.

1st (2) (7/2 +13%)Autumn Twist |
7/2(+13%) | (2) Autumn Twist 7/2, Ran to form back on Flat beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Galway last time; effective at 2m on good; in form, mark demands more. Flat winner; dual victories over hurdles include a C\u0026D win; just 0.5l behind subsequent Galway Hurdle winner Putapoundinthejar at Bellewstown last month (2m1f, good), winner now rated 14lb higher; not a bad effort on the Flat at Galway last time (1m4f, yielding to soft); interesting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (9/2 +47%)Moylussa |
9/2(+47%) | (8) Moylussa 9/2, Outpaced, solid effort on chase debut 19l third in a handicap chase at Roscommon most recent run; off a short-break; effective 2m; can do better over fences if ridden bit more positively, may want step up in trip. Won a Tipperary maiden hurdle in 2024 (2m1f, soft); creditable third at Ballinrobe in May (2m, good) off 2lb lower and okay effort on chasing debut at Roscommon last time when a distant third; place chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (7/2 +0%)Gino Bella |
7/2(+0%) | (6) Gino Bella 7/2, Well treated up 7lb, improved again allowed to dictate landing a handicap by 2l off a 8lb lower mark at Cork last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good; progressive. Chasing three wins in a row following dual victories at Cork over 2m1f on good ground following the application of a hood; up 8lb more but should be on the premises.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (14/1 +13%)Lord Ffrench |
14/1(+13%) | (9) Lord Ffrench 14/1, Ran to form just tiring late up in trip well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Galway latest; tongue-tie first time; effective around 2m4f on good; needs more to defy this mark. Has lost way since winning a 2m5f maiden hurdle at Sligo in August last year; tongue-tie added to cheekpieces but current form a concern.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 +67%)Feud |
11/1(+67%) | (3) Feud 11/1, Fell in a handicap hurdle at Thurles latest; suited by 2m on sound surface; bit to prove after few below par runs. Maiden/novice wins during the summer of 2024; mostly disappointing since then, fell at Thurles when last seen in January; makes stable debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (9/1 +0%)Eye Contact |
9/1(+0%) | (10) Eye Contact 9/1, Ran to best in first time blinkers pulled clear with useful rival when second beaten 5l in a maiden hurdle at Cork latest; effective 2-2 1/4m, acts on good; hurdles mark fair and holds strong claims. Is 0-6 over hurdles but has taken the runner-up spot in his last two runs, in a Ballinrobe handicap off 100 (2m2f, good) and in a Cork maiden earlier this month (2m2f, good); 1lb wrong here but he has found some consistency.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (22/1 -38%)Fast Felix |
22/1(-38%) | (7) Fast Felix 22/1, Modest chase debut when fourth beaten 25l in a novice chase here latest; effective 2m, acts on good; well treated on C&D maiden win, could bounce back. Won back-to-back hurdle races in August/September on good ground (including C\u0026D maiden hurdle); creditable C\u0026D fourth on seasonal return in May off 1lb higher but below that at Listowel next time (2m, yielding); okay fourth of seven on chasing debut here last time; remains 5lb higher than his last win.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (9/1 -125%)Hi Ho Idaho |
9/1(-125%) | (4) Hi Ho Idaho 9/1, Improved again suited by positive ride down in class when winning a maiden hurdle here by 1/2l last time; returning from a break; stays 2m4f, acts on soft and yielding; progressive, open to improvement still now handicapping. Placed twice in points before placing in his opening two starts over hurdles; made the breakthrough in a 2m4f maiden hurdle here last time; shaped like he wanted further that day, so this drop back in trip may not help him on handicap bow.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (6/1 -80%)Fiveonefive |
6/1(-80%) | (1) Fiveonefive 6/1, Built on recent revival, ran to form landing a handicap by 1/2l off a 8lb lower mark at Galway last time; usually held up; effective 2m, acts on soft but best on good; back in form, revised mark will demand more. Won a valuable handicap hurdle at Galway last time (2m1f, good to yielding), under a good ride by today's jockey; that was a sixth hurdles win but none of those has ever come off a mark this high; not a surefire candidate to follow up.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (18/1 +45%)Black Bamboo |
18/1(+45%) | (5) Black Bamboo 18/1, Unsuited by drop in trip down the field in a handicap hurdle at Thurles most recent; usually held up; effective 2 1/2-3m; form going the wrong way. Bumper and maiden hurdle winner was out of form last season, beaten 27l+ in three starts over hurdles; hard to recommend.. |

HI HO IDAHO won here in May and it is hoped he will cope with dropping in distance on handicap debut. Placed in two point-to-points last autumn, he has shown nice ability over hurdles and defeated subsequent winner Livio into third, with Eye Contact chasing home Willie Mullins' gelding at Cork recently. Stablemate Fiveonefive scored at the Galway Festival but is 8lb higher and has top weight, while the hat-trick seeking Gino Bella has the same rise in the handicap to overcome after her Cork success.

1st (15) (9/1 +10%)Machadadorp |
9/1(+10%) | (15) Machadadorp 9/1, Ran about to form beaten 4l off this mark at Goodwood last time; suited by 7f, acts on a sound surface; form franked, progressive, and could suited by return to this trip. Unraced on ground slower than good; off the mark in a maiden at Chester (7f) on second start and followed up narrowly in a novice at Wetherby (7f; second has won since); ran well behind an improving rival on handicap debut at Newmarket (7f) last month but was below that level at Goodwood (6f) three weeks ago; stepping back up in trip should suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (20) (18/1 +28%)Woohoo |
18/1(+28%) | (20) Woohoo 18/1, Ran to form beaten a neck off a 5lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; in very good form but revised mark and hike in class requires further progress. Unproven on ground slower than good to soft; five-time winner (5f/6f), the most recent win at Musselburgh in April off a 10lb lower mark than today's; second in each of her last five starts, including when ahead of a few of today's rivals at Goodwood (6f, good) two starts back, but now tries 7f for the first time off a career-high mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (9/1 +36%)Oolong Poobong |
9/1(+36%) | (9) Oolong Poobong 9/1, Well below form down the field in a handicap at Ascot most recent; off a short-break; effective 7f/1m, acts on a sound surface; needs to bounce back, mark may still be stiff. Unraced on ground slower than good; landed a handicap at Haydock (7f) last May in convincing style before a good fourth in the Sandringham (1m); returned from 11 months off with a solid fifth of 13 at Thirsk (1m; first-time tongue-tie) in May but well beaten since in the Kensington Palace back at Royal Ascot (1m); drops back in trip, needing to bounce back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (19) (40/1 -21%)Cotai Belle |
40/1(-21%) | (19) Cotai Belle 40/1, Ran to form beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at Leicester last time; suited by 6f, might get further, acts on a sound surface; in good form, but needs more back up in class and stepping up in trip. Best form has been on good/good to firm ground; dual winner last year (5.5f/5f) and she's been runner-up in four of her five starts this year, including when going close here in a 0-100 over 6f in June; her pedigree gives the impression this step up in trip will be no problem and she's a contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (14) (25/1 +24%)Perfect Part |
25/1(+24%) | (14) Perfect Part 25/1, Ran back closer to best beaten 4l off a 2lb higher mark at Doncaster last time; suited by 7/8f, acts on both sides of good; plenty more needed at this level. Acts on good to soft but unraced on slower; without a win since her debut in June 2024 (Hilary Needler) but she has posted some good efforts, including when a 1l second of 11 at Thirsk (1m, good) in May; however, she hasn't been at her best in her two starts since and was well beaten in this race last year, albeit off an 11lb higher mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (18) (10/1 +9%)Secret History |
10/1(+9%) | (18) Secret History 10/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) penultimate start; ran to form third beaten 3l off 83 last time, same mark here; effective 6/7f, acts on a sound surface; progressive and should remain competitive. Unraced on ground slower than good; off the mark when winning a Chelmsford novice (6f, AW) in January and has since won twice in handicap company with this hood applied, most recently off a steady pace at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) last month; solid effort at Goodwood (6f, good; Woohoo was second) last time and she has each-way claims returned to this trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (40/1 +0%)Mubasimah |
40/1(+0%) | (3) Mubasimah 40/1, Much below form down the field in a handicap at Ascot most recent; off a short-break; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface; needs to bounce back from latest. Unraced on ground softer than good; can front-run; sixth in the Group 3 Nell Gwyn on her reappearance before finishing down the field in the 1,000 Guineas and fading into fifth in a French Group 2 (1m, good; her best form); now drops back to 7f after failing to settle over 1m in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot two months ago but stall 17 isn't ideal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (7/1 +0%)Albaydaa |
7/1(+0%) | (13) Albaydaa 7/1, Landed a handicap by a neck off a 5lb lower mark at Carlisle penultimate start; ran to form up in class beaten in Eternal Stakes (Listed) last time; top course trainer; off a short-break; effective at 6/7f, acts on any; has progressed, limitations exposed latest. Unraced on ground slower than good since her debut; half-sister to Queen Elizabeth ll Jubilee Stakes winner Almeraq; placed on her first two outings this season (6f/7f) before doubling her win tally with a neck success at Carlisle (7f, good to firm) in May; strong in the betting when only fifth in a Listed race there in June, but she now returns to handicap company and should still be capable of progress.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (4/1 +75%)Caim |
4/1(+75%) | (12) Caim 4/1, Much below form when fourth beaten 11l in a novice at Leicester latest; drawn on wing of large field; off a short-break; effective 7f, acts on soft; plenty of promise as 2yo, could come on from seasonal reappearance. Comfortable win on her debut at Beverley (7.5f, soft) last September and second of eight in a Newbury Listed race (7f, soft) the following month; disappointed under a penalty on her reappearance at Leicester (1m, good to firm) in May and now makes her handicap debut having been off again since; will appreciate any rain that falls.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (20/1 +20%)Figjam |
20/1(+20%) | (10) Figjam 20/1, Much below form back in handicaps beaten 9l in a handicap at Ascot last time; in good form prior; effective 6/7f, acts on any; needs to bounce back. Sole win came in a novice at Leicester (6f, good) last October and second behind Lam Yai in a Listed event at Doncaster (6f, heavy) next time; posted her best effort on RPRs when sixth of 13 in Group 3 here over 6f last month but she was below her best in a handicap at Ascot (6f, good to firm) 12 days ago; down 2lb but others look stronger.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (11/1 -47%)Tryst |
11/1(-47%) | (6) Tryst 11/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 2l off a 6lb lower mark at Newmarket (July) last time; trainer in form; effective 7-9f, acts on sound surface; can go well again despite tougher mark and higher grade. Unproven on ground slower than good; 3yo filly who seems to have been well suited by dropping back to 7f in cheekpieces, landing a six-runner handicap at Yarmouth (good to firm) and making all at Newmarket (good to firm) 19 days ago; another 6lb higher in this more competitive race but can't be dismissed lightly in her current form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (40/1 -60%)Bellarchi |
40/1(-60%) | (1) Bellarchi 40/1, Landed a handicap by 4 1/4l off a 11lb lower mark at Musselburgh three starts back; bit below form beaten in Pipalong Stakes (Listed) last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good to soft and good; needs to bounce back from latest back in handicap company. Acts on most ground; has won three handicaps at Musselburgh this season and gained her first Listed success when scoring at Chester (7f, good) in June, but she was below that level at Pontefract (1m) last month; has a better draw than she did when down the field in this contest last year but is now 11lb higher than when last seen in handicap company.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (17) (100/1 -203%)Starfinch |
100/1(-203%) | (17) Starfinch 100/1, Returned to form on handicap debut beaten 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Yarmouth last time; usually held up; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on firm ground and AW; nice attitude, but needs more at this level. Unraced on ground slower than good; made a winning yard debut in a Southwell novice (6f, AW) in January and built on that when sixth of eight in a Listed event at Lingfield (7f, AW); had failed to beat a rival in two starts on turf prior to finishing a close third of four on handicap debut at Yarmouth (7f, good to firm) four weeks ago, but this is a more competitive contest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (16) (3/1 +10%)Starlight Lass |
3/1(+10%) | (16) Starlight Lass 3/1, Took another step forward when winning a novice at Yarmouth by 2 1/4l last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good to firm; highly progressive and can go well again on handicap debut for top connections. Caught the eye on her debut over 7f (good to soft) before making all in a three-runner novice at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) and following that with a comfortable success in another small field at Yarmouth (1m, good to firm) last month; this race is much more competitive but she doesn't lack a turn of foot, which bodes well for this drop back in trip, and this well-related filly is a leading contender on her handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (8) (80/1 -100%)Bella Lyra |
80/1(-100%) | (8) Bella Lyra 80/1, Well placed and every chance when second beaten a length in Spring Cup Stakes (Listed) at Lingfield latest; wide draw; defective 6/7f, acts on most; returns to this yard for handicap debut after lackluster showings in US. Acts on soft-good to firm ground; off the mark when winning at Windsor (6f) on second start and ran well when second of eight in a Listed event at Lingfield (7f, AW) in February; then left Richard Hughes and has since struggled in two starts in the USA (6.5f/1m); now makes her handicap debut on her first start back for this trainer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (7) (25/1 -79%)Carnival Of Light |
25/1(-79%) | (7) Carnival Of Light 25/1, Took another step forward landing a handicap by a neck off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw; effective 7f, acts on good and AW; can go well again switched back to turf. Well held over 1m on turf on her first two outings (good) but she posted an improved effort when winning a Wolverhampton maiden (7f, AW) last month; overcame a wide trip to follow up on her handicap debut over that same C\u0026D 20 days ago, holding off the late challenge of the runner-up, but she now needs to transfer that improvement to turf.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (4) (18/1 +0%)Lam Yai |
18/1(+0%) | (4) Lam Yai 18/1, Ran to form when winning Prospect Stakes (Listed) at Doncaster by 1 1/2l last time; returning from long layoff; drawn on wing of large field; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and good; progressive. Best efforts have been on soft/heavy ground, including when going close in a Group 3 at Ayr (6f) last September and winning a Listed contest at Doncaster (6f) when last seen 299 days ago; has since had wind surgery and steps up to 7f for her reappearance; pedigree suggests she'll stay but she may need this return to action.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
18th (21) (16/1 -14%)Zooella |
16/1(-14%) | (21) Zooella 16/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Thirsk last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good to firm and AW; progressive since handicapping, could have more to come at this level. 0-4 as 2yo but improved form since a 207-day break, making all at Lingfield (6f, AW) before following up at Thirsk on her turf debut (6f, good to firm); leaves the impression she has more to offer but now steps back up in trip in a deeper race off this 8lb higher mark (2lb out of the handicap).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
19th (5) (50/1 +0%)Just Call Me Angel |
50/1(+0%) | (5) Just Call Me Angel 50/1, Step back in the right direction beaten 6l in a handicap at Goodwood last time; cheekpieces first time; suited by 1m, acts on a sound surface; nice type, Italian 1000 Guineas winner, but mark still looks stiff. All three turf wins have been on good ground, including two Group-race successes at San Siro over 1m, most recently in the Italian 1,000 Guineas in May; below her best in three starts since and may be high in the weights for now; drops back to 7f with cheekpieces applied.. |

STARLIGHT LASS defied a penalty when beating the odds-on favourite in novice company at Yarmouth. The progressive daughter of Dubawi should have plenty more to offer now handicapping and gets the tentative vote in an open affair. Oolong Poobong has a fighting chance off her current mark back as she reverts to 7f, but last year's winner Royal Velvet bids to repeat the dose off a 14lb higher mark and the less-exposed Tryst could prove a bigger danger bidding for a hat-trick.

1st (11) (9/4 -38%)Banks Of The Boyne |
9/4(-38%) | (11) Banks Of The Boyne 9/4, Ran to form when fourth beaten 3l in a nursery at The Curragh latest; effective 6/7f, acts on yielding and good; in good form, has experience edge, every chance. Showed little on his first two starts; was able to dictate in a 6f Fairyhouse maiden and gave a much-improved display to take second; has picked up valuable experience in nurseries, second to a well-handicapped runner at the Curragh, fair fourth at Galway; the most appealing of those that have run.. |

2nd (4) (9/2 +31%)Sovreigns Joy |
9/2(+31%) | (4) Sovreigns Joy 9/2, Green early, showed minor promise well beaten in an auction race at Galway only start; wide draw; effective 7f; should improve a little for initial experience. Hampered at the start at Galway, made some late progress; has potential for improvement and enjoys a slight edge over Romance.. |

3rd (6) (3/1 +25%)The Green Helmet |
3/1(+25%) | (6) The Green Helmet 3/1, Ran to form 2 1/2l third in an auction race at Sligo most recent run; some speed in pedigree; in good form, remain competitive. Stepped up from a satisfactory debut in a 17-runner Navan event when third at Sligo; would have been closer but for becoming unbalanced at a track crossing point around two furlongs down; should not be far away.. |

66/1(-136%) | (2) Letmeentertainyou 66/1, Green, never threatened beaten 6 1/4l in an auction race at Cork on debut; wide draw; longer trip should suit on breeding, should improve a little. Never in the hunt over 5f at Cork on debut; pedigree suggests 7f will suit better.. |

Slowly away and never involved first time out at Gowran; unlikely to feature.. |

6th (13) (25/1 +50%)Romance |
25/1(+50%) | (13) Romance 25/1, Below form on softer ground down the field in an auction race at Galway most recent; trainer in form; wide draw; sire fair miler, dam useful around a mile; sire's progeny tend to progress with racing. Sent off at 66-1 on debut at Roscommon, shaped with promise, staying on in the closing stages for a 6l fifth behind subsequent Listed winner Dancing Destiny; failed to match that form at Galway, when finished behind Sovreigns Joy.. |

Mid-field run at Roscommon gives him something to build on; plenty of improvement needed.. |

9th (12) (250/1 -25%)Dear Theodosia |
250/1(-25%) | (12) Dear Theodosia 250/1, Yet to show any real signs of ability; should be suited by around 1m; yet to beat a rival home or show anything. Has failed to beat a single opponent in races here and at Galway; can be ruled out.. |

11th (15) (10/1 0%)Lucy's Promise |
10/1(0%) | (15) Lucy's Promise 10/1, Found little beaten 10l in a nursery at The Curragh last time; sprint bred; major improvement needed now handicapping. Did not show much on first two starts; took a step in the right direction when a staying-on sixth of 17 at Navan, in front of The Green Helmet (seventh); however, confidence is dented by her eclipse in a Curragh nursery, never looked like featuring, last of eight.. |

14/1(+36%) | (1) Kilconnell 14/1, 23 Feb; 6,500gns Too Darn Hot colt; half-brother to Bella Kumari, fair at 7f; yard quiet just now, best watched. 6,500gns yearling; second foal; Too Darn Hot colt, unraced dam closely related to a 5f winner, half-sister to Richmond Stakes winner Prolific and Deal Breaker (US 1m stakes).. |

Despite being more exposed than the majority of these, BANKS OF THE BOYNE can land a deserved first success. Runner-up in a Fairyhouse maiden that has worked out well, Michael Mulvany's charge has subsequently acquitted himself with credit in handicap company. An official rating of 79 sets a fair standard and the son of Space Traveller gets the nod. The Green Helmet took a step forward when finishing third at Sligo earlier this month and deserves consideration, while Togetherwearefree is an interesting newcomer worth noting.

1st (2) (9/4 -13%)Fine Thing |
9/4(-13%) | (2) Fine Thing 9/4, Quickened clear comfortably, very promising effort when winning a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter by 7 1/2l last time; effective 2 1/2m, acts on good; more to come up in trip for top yard. Unable to justify favouritism when only third of six in Market Rasen bumper on rules debut in June but comfortably won Uttoxeter maiden hurdle (2m4f, good) by over 7l last month, and should have a lot more to offer.. |

2nd (1) (30/100 +25%)Porcupine Bank |
30/100(+25%) | (1) Porcupine Bank 30/100, Outpaced, improved again, poorly placed to challenge, looked in need of stiffer test 4l third in Novice Hurdle (Listed) at Galway most recent run; effective 2m, acts on soft; form looks decent, progressive, more to come for top yard. Useful Irish 4yo who won twice over 2m in May and was creditable third over that trip in Listed contest at last month's Galway festival (good ground); hiked up in trip here; will be tough to beat if stamina holds out.. |

PORCUPINE BANK raised his game again when third in a Listed contest at the Galway Festival and this represents a fine opportunity for Gordon Elliott's charge to gain a third career victory. He has to give 8lb to Fine Thing, who made a winning start over timber at Uttoxeter last month but this will require a decent chunk of improvement.

1st (5) (4/9 +44%)Diamond Du Berlais |
4/9(+44%) | (5) Diamond Du Berlais 4/9, Yard has won last two runnings of race; ran to form 4l third in a Mares hurdle here most recent run; trainer in form; effective around 2m-2m5f, acts with cut and on good; highly tried in France, should have more to offer for new yard. Solid placed graded form in France on testing ground; shed the maiden tag for this stable at Ludlow in February (2m5f, soft); decent effort on good ground in the mares' novice hurdle at Cheltenham but was below best at Punchestown next time; creditable effort over 2m5f here last time, and extra trip should suit; well treated at weights here and big chance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (11/2 +15%)Brother Walfrid |
11/2(+15%) | (2) Brother Walfrid 11/2, Below form in much better race comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Galway last time; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on yielding and good; needs drop in class, stable first string on jockey booking. One of two for trainer; second in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle on stable debut in April before a lesser bumper run; was happier back over obstacles when winning a 2m3f Punchestown maiden hurdle in June; must bounce back from a disappointing Galway (2m5f, good) effort last month, but Kennedy stays loyal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (6/1 +33%)Pets Georgina |
6/1(+33%) | (6) Pets Georgina 6/1, Too keen up in trip and grade when fourth beaten 15l in the Conditions Hurdle at Kilbeggan latest; effective at around 3m; form of maiden win franked emphatically, could bounce back. Followed up a Sligo bumper success by easily landing a C\u0026D mares' maiden hurdle; too keen at Kilbeggan last time when well beaten upped to 3m1f in a conditions hurdle; prior to that she looked like a mare on the improve and foolish to discount.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (40/1 -21%)Don Jefe |
40/1(-21%) | (3) Don Jefe 40/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse latest where went too fast; returning from a break; effective at 2m1f-2m4f, acts with cut; form of maiden win had knocks. Fairyhouse maiden hurdle winner was pulled up on handicap debut off a mark of 113 in April; looks vulnerable at this level.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|DQ| (4) (7/1 -56%)Local News |
7/1(-56%) | (4) Local News 7/1, Improved from debut up in trip when winning a novice hurdle at Kilbeggan by a neck last time; off a short-break; effective 2m3f-3m, acts on good; progressive. Belied odds of 100-1 to make a winning start in a 2m3f mares' maiden hurdle at Cork; proved it wasn't a fluke when a neck in front of Pets Georgina at Kilbeggan to retain unbeaten record (3m, good to yielding); these are deeper waters so must improve.. |

French import DIAMOND DU BERLAIS was a 13-race maiden prior to scoring on debut for Willie Mullins at Ludlow in February but is a capable type who could be suited by stepping up to this trip. She ran well at both the Cheltenham and Punchestown Festivals last spring and gained course experience when finishing behind two smart types here last month. Brother Walfrid disappointed at Galway but is better judged on his Punchestown success the time before, while stablemate Loch Cuan steps up from two summer Cartmel wins.

1st (3) (20/1 +9%)Naoi |
20/1(+9%) | (3) Naoi 20/1, May have found ground too soft beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap at Killarney last time; in good form prior; off a long absence; effective 6/7f, acts on good; fair mark on maiden form but likely to need this. Placed in three maidens, soundly beaten on only handicap start; seasonal/stable debut and best watched in the circumstances.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (20/1 +29%)Free Solo |
20/1(+29%) | (7) Free Solo 20/1, May not have stayed down the field in a handicap at Bellewstown most recent; wide draw; best at 7f, acts on any; in moderate form. Gained the sixth win of his career at Roscommon this time last year; 7lb lower now, but this season's form offers limited hope.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (20) (33/1 -106%)Ninth Crusade |
33/1(-106%) | (20) Ninth Crusade 33/1, Never threatened back up in trip, below form on turf debut beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Naas last time; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; inconsistent, fair mark on AW but unproven on turf and over this far. Breeze-up purchase cost £205,000; justified favouritism on debut at Wolverhampton (6f); failed to build on that in two subsequent outings in Britain; runner-up on the second of two Dundalk nursery outings; may improve from his turf/seasonal debut at Naas last month; second reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (3/1 +33%)Bear Right |
3/1(+33%) | (11) Bear Right 3/1, Ran to form beaten a neck off a 1lb lower mark at Naas last time; drawn on wing of large field; effective 7/8f, acts on soft and good; consistent if a touch frustrating maiden, chance once again. Has made the frame in her last five starts in handicaps from 7f to 1m on varying ground; beaten favourite when third over C\u0026D last month, doing well after losing her position early; neck second to Zheleznaya Dama at Naas on latest; does not need to improve much.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (80/1 -100%)Shamanka |
80/1(-100%) | (15) Shamanka 80/1, Poorly placed in race dominated from front beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Down Royal last time; effective at 6/7f, acts on soft and AW; inconsistent, longer trip a plus but quick ground a worry. Maiden raced mostly on AW for Natalia Lupini, fair form at up to 1m, placed three times; best of three runs for this stable when fourth over 5f at Down Royal.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (16) (12/1 +33%)Brains |
12/1(+33%) | (16) Brains 12/1, Did plenty early, ran to current form beaten a length off this mark here last time; effective 7/8f, acts on soft, good and AW; chance if building on recent efforts, well treated on old form. Veteran winner of 14 races (11 on AW); respectable form in recent months, highlighted by a Roscommon second; another solid display when fifth of 17 here a fortnight ago, on the heels of runner-up Jazzit (second reserve) with Gordon Bennett among those behind.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (10/1 +60%)Phoenix Pairc |
10/1(+60%) | (9) Phoenix Pairc 10/1, Continued in poor form beaten 6l in a handicap at Naas last time; effective 6/7f, acts on good, yielding and AW; mark easing but needs more, flattered by maiden win. Sole win in 11 starts came on AW in maiden over 7f last October; well held in handicaps; towards the rear in Naas event dominated by Zheleznaya Dama and Bear Right.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (18/1 +28%)All Hail |
18/1(+28%) | (6) All Hail 18/1, Ran to current form in first time blinkers beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at The Curragh last time; effective 5/6f on good; mark dropping but improvement required. Showed promise at two, notably when second in a 6f maiden at Navan; one decent run over 5f at the same venue this season, overall form is unconvincing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (7/2 +65%)Altimara |
7/2(+65%) | (2) Altimara 7/2, Won this last year off 1lb lower; every chance, ran to form beaten 2l off a 2lb higher mark at Naas last time; effective 7/8f, acts on good and AW; mark easing, could be running into form. Landed back-to-back handicaps over C\u0026D last year, including this race; placed twice over 1m subsequently; below best on first two runs this year; step in right direction with staying-on sixth at Fairyhouse; big chance after fifth in Naas race won by Zheleznaya Dama.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (19) (4/1 +47%)Jazzit |
4/1(+47%) | (19) Jazzit 4/1, Too much to do ridden to see out the trip beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark here last time; suited by 5/6f, effective 7f, acts on yielding, good and AW; consistent but frustrating maiden, not fully exposed at 7f. Placed three times at sprint distances on AW earlier in the year; now appears to be on the brink of a breakthrough; third in a 19-runner 6f event at Cork, second in a 17-runner contest over C\u0026D on latest; first reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (21) (50/1 -150%)Sporting Hero |
50/1(-150%) | (21) Sporting Hero 50/1, Never in it from off the pace down the field in a handicap at Dundalk most recent; drawn on wing of large field; off a short-break; effective 5/6f, appears best AW, acts on good; largely consistent, handicapper may have caught up. Fine strike-rate of 9-28 on the AW; gained first win on turf at Navan in April off 6lb lower (5f, gd-yld), making all; soundly beaten off revised mark twice since; third reserve.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (15/2 +0%)Zheleznaya Dama |
15/2(+0%) | (13) Zheleznaya Dama 15/2, Quickened clear, improved down in trip at sharp track under positive ride landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Naas last time; wide draw; effective 7f/1m on good; good chance here once again up 3lb. Good third in a nursery in September; saddle slipped at Cork; back on track with fifth at Limerick; gave way late on when second at Killarney; held on for a front-running win from Bear Right at Naas; not certain to uphold the form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (14) (25/1 -25%)Hazrama |
25/1(-25%) | (14) Hazrama 25/1, Allowed to coast home having been hadly hampered down the field in a claimer at Killarney most recent; drawn on wing of large field; bred to be suited by middle distances; in top hands but plenty to prove now handicapping. Never closer than tenth in three outings; most recent run was in a claimer; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (8) (11/1 +45%)Ballymagreehan |
11/1(+45%) | (8) Ballymagreehan 11/1, Scored by 4l off a 7lb lower mark at Gowran Park in May; effective at 7/8f, acts on sound surface; mark looks high enough. Not in the first six in three outings since incurring a sharp rise for a Gowran win in May; others preferred.. |

A dual C&D winner around this time last year, ALTIMARA could record her third win back here. Ross O'Sullivan's mare has slipped back down the weights this season and following two promising runs in recent weeks, the five-year-old shouldn't be far away. Mr Perth went into plenty of notebooks following a luckless passage at the Galway Festival last time. Granted a clear run, he should be involved at the death, while Ballymagreehan may also feature if he can get a prominent position from his wide draw.

1st (2) (2/1 +27%)Rebel Tribesman |
2/1(+27%) | (2) Rebel Tribesman 2/1, Ran to form up in trip when second beaten 5 1/2l in a novice hurdle at Cartmel latest; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on good; promising sort, remain competitive. Did not need to improve to justify skinny odds in Warwick maiden (2m3f, good) in May, his third start over hurdles, and was not discredited when second to useful rival at Cartmel (2m6f, good) last month; should have some progress to come in handicaps; likely contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (11/4 +8%)Kittys Glance |
11/4(+8%) | (5) Kittys Glance 11/4, Ran to form beaten 4l off a 1lb higher mark at Newton Abbot last time; trainer in form; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good; shaped with promise in bumpers, progressing over hurdles and mark still fair. Won Huntingdon maiden (2m3f, good) in March and was placed in her first two handicaps, latterly when second at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) last month; could have untapped potential over this new trip; respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (5/1 -11%)Torrent |
5/1(-11%) | (4) Torrent 5/1, Too much to do, ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off this mark at Uttoxeter last time; effective 2m, barely gets 3m, acts on any; needs this slight drop back in trip. Seemingly on the downgrade now but stayed on for creditable third of 16 when upped to 2m7f at Uttoxeter (good) last month and gets another chance off the same mark here; a possible.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (11/2 -100%)Notnowlinda |
11/2(-100%) | (1) Notnowlinda 11/2, Every chance, below form when fourth beaten 16l in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon latest; returning from a break; effective 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; fair mark if building on penultimate run. Seemingly aided by first-time cheekpieces when close third at Uttoxeter (2m4f, good to soft) in March, her fourth run after a long layoff, but was disappointing favourite on next outing; goes without headgear here; needs to up her game.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (3) (9/2 +25%)Kom Tu Voudras |
9/2(+25%) | (3) Kom Tu Voudras 9/2, Scored by a length off a 3lb lower mark at Worcester three starts back; keen, travelled, outstayed late up in trip over 3m last time; effective 2 1/2m, acts on heavy, yielding; highly tried in short career, more to come back down in trip. Low-mileage mare with 2-5 strike-rate for current stable, the latter win gained in first-time cheekpieces at Worcester (2m4f, good) in June; weakened into fourth of 16 (behind Torrent) after travelling strongly for a long way at Uttoxeter (2m7f, good) last month but this slightly sharper test might suit her better and she remains of interest.. |

REBEL TRIBESMAN got off the mark at the third attempt over hurdles at Warwick before arguably improving on that effort when runner-up to a smart Irish raider at Cartmel. An opening mark of 109 looks to be more than workable and the five-year-old can prove too strong for Kittys Glance, who has been competitive on both outings in handicap company. Torrent appears best of the remainder.

1st (1) (4/1 +33%)Ballystone |
4/1(+33%) | (1) Ballystone 4/1, Returned to form on chase debut when fourth beaten 15l in a beginners chase chase at Galway latest; effective 2 3/4-3m, acts on good; more to come over fences at 3m. Dual hurdle winner up to 3m and is rated 125 in that sphere; made a sound chasing debut at Galway after 92 days away and has to be considered with improvement to come from that.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (11/4 +73%)Fort Dino |
11/4(+73%) | (2) Fort Dino 11/4, Needed run on stable debut well beaten in a novice hurdle at Punchestown latest; returning from a break; effective 2m1f, acts with cut; form of French win franked emphatically, more to come having joined top stable. Won over hurdles in France on his second start but was well beaten on stable debut in a competitive Punchestown novice hurdle; quickly sent over fences but can't be ruled out; the market might guide.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (7/4 +13%)Affinity Rock |
7/4(+13%) | (8) Affinity Rock 7/4, Improved up in trip under positive ride when second beaten 4 1/4l in a Mares chase at Limerick latest; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2-2 3/4m; more to come over fences now stepped up in trip and already sets the standard. Won a 2m6f maiden hurdle at this track last year before a poor run at Galway; posted solid efforts in both chase runs earlier this year, including back here; rated 124 and should go well getting the 7lb mares' allowance.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (4/1 +0%)Lemmy Caution |
4/1(+0%) | (5) Lemmy Caution 4/1, Yard won this last year; improved again under positive ride down in trip just beaten by course specialist when second beaten 5 1/2l in a novice hurdle at Downpatrick latest; effective 3m, acts on good to yielding; much more to come under rules for point and hurdle winner. Second runner for yard; point winner got off the mark over hurdles at Punchestown (3m) in May and posted decent runs in novice races twice since; one to consider on chasing debut with cheekpieces retained.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (11/1 +45%)Themanintheanorak |
11/1(+45%) | (6) Themanintheanorak 11/1, Mistakes, outclassed on chase debut comfortably held in a beginners chase chase at Galway last time; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on heavy and good; needs drop in class over fences. Bumper winner got off the mark over hurdles in a Fairyhouse handicap in February; found life tougher off higher marks and was well beaten on chasing debut at Galway; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (66/1 -32%)Happy Me |
66/1(-32%) | (3) Happy Me 66/1, Never put into the race well beaten in a beginners chase chase at Tramore latest; cheekpieces first time; effective at around 2 1/2m; frustrating maiden. Maiden is rated 100 over hurdles and was well beaten on chasing debut at Tramore a week ago; cheekpieces added but not easy to fancy.. |

AFFINITY ROCK is rated just 105 over hurdles but this summer has shown better form over fences and has winning course form. Successful here in May 2025, the selection again ran well here in May when finishing ahead of subsequent winner La Note Verte, and backed up that effort with another useful runner-up placing at Limerick. She stays well and likes good ground. French import Fort Dino scored smartly at Auteuil in May 2025 but was absent nearly a year prior to his return at the Punchestown Festival. He should improve from that effort but notably wore a tongue-tie then and now tries a longer distance on chase debut. Previous Galway Festival winner Ballystone wasn't beaten too far at that same course last month.

1st (13) (13/8 +28%)Niffler |
13/8(+28%) | (13) Niffler 13/8, Looked badly in need of much further than 7f down the field in a maiden at Wolverhampton most recent outing; trainer in form; returning from a break; bred to want middle-distances; big, workmanlike sort, has been racing over inadequate distances. In typical yard style he cracked off three quick qualifying runs (7f-1m); now enters handicaps up sharply in trip in a race that's begging to be won; betting should be very informative.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3/1 +57%)Fleur De Mer |
3/1(+57%) | (3) Fleur De Mer 3/1, Ran to form tried in a visor up to 2m when third in a handicap at Catterick most recent run; top course jockey; effective 12f, stays 2m, acts on any; change of head gear probably helped latest and repeat gives a chance. Dual winner although the latest of them came here (1m2f) in 2023; regularly in the frame, however, including when fourth at Carlisle (1m3f) last month and third over 2m at Catterick (also good to firm) a fortnight ago; capable of having a say.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (7/1 +22%)Billy Bathgate |
7/1(+22%) | (2) Billy Bathgate 7/1, Didn't have best of runs but head higher than ideal under pressure beaten 4l off 57 last time, 1lb lower here; effective 14-16f, acts on any; Redcar run may flatter a little but very consistent sort. His six wins, including two here, have all been gained over further; won at Redcar (2m) on his penultimate start and his latest fifth over 1m6f wasn't a bad effort; this is winnable if he handles the drop back in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/2 +0%)Jedhi Knight |
9/2(+0%) | (5) Jedhi Knight 9/2, Third run since wind op and bit below par 7 1/2l third in a handicap at Musselburgh most recent run; effective 12f though looks thorough stayer and 2m+ suits, acts on any; in fair form and may contend. First two Flat runs for this yard were fairly encouraging, beaten 3l over C\u0026D in June and second of 11 at Pontefract (1m4f, good) the following month; lacked the gears at Musselburgh last time but he's still of some interest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (22/1 -83%)Hickton |
22/1(-83%) | (1) Hickton 22/1, Moderate effort in a handicap at Pontefract last time; off a short-break; effective 11-14f, acts on soft, good and AW; return to AW may help but not in best form. All three wins since September and he opened his AW account at Southwell (1m4f, Tapeta) in October; posted a career best when scoring at that track (1m6f) in April but he made no impact in two starts the following month; returns from three-month break.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (33/1 +0%)Galahad Threepwood |
33/1(+0%) | (10) Galahad Threepwood 33/1, In poor form and never showed when well beaten in a handicap here latest; effective at around 12f, probably stays 2m, acts on soft, good and AW; out of sorts and very hard to make a case for. Two Lingfield AW wins (1m4f) for Mick Channon in 2021 and he also nabbed a handicap hurdle for Ben Pauling in 2023; some fair runs without winning for this yard but he has not been at his best since returning from a 406-day absence this season; career-low mark and he lost a shoe last time so worth a market check.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (14) (22/1 -57%)Romeo's Guardian |
22/1(-57%) | (14) Romeo's Guardian 22/1, Probably didn't stay 10f but also unenthusiastic tried in cheekpieces beaten 9l in a handicap at Ayr last time; blinkers first time; bred for 6f/7f; trip looks very stretching and attitude a concern. He had three qualifying runs over 6f in the spring before being gelded; made handicap debut over 1m2f at Ayr last month but he was uneasy in the market and never threatened; first-time cheekpieces worn that day are swapped for blinkers; still early days ahead of this further step up in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (16/1 -220%)Muhib |
16/1(-220%) | (9) Muhib 16/1, Ran to handicap form 6 1/4l third in a handicap at Catterick latest; effective 10-12f, acts on both sides of good and AW; exposed long-standing maiden, but usually consistent and fair weight. 28-race maiden but he has been running with credit, finishing in the frame on his last eight starts; acts on AW and he makes more appeal than some.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (22/1 -83%)Gemical |
22/1(-83%) | (12) Gemical 22/1, Made plenty of use of and may not have handled soft ground when well beaten in a handicap at Nottingham latest; suited by 12f, acts on a sound surface; could bounce back returned to a better ground. Seven-race maiden; both 1m4f runs in May were respectable and she may not have been suited by the soft ground when well beaten over 1m6f in June; has her second go on AW from a reduced mark and it's still relatively early days.. |

50/1(+0%) | (8) Wave Power 50/1, Didn't stay 14f well beaten in a handicap at Southwell latest; cheekpieces first time; got a mile at 2yo, yet to show any form this year; stamina a major concern. He has been beaten increasingly big margins in three handicaps; new cheekpieces have some work to do.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (12/1 -50%)Forever Perfect |
12/1(-50%) | (7) Forever Perfect 12/1, Made too much use of down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton most recent start; stays 12f, acts on good and AW; couple of poor runs most recently and needs a return to form to figure. In good form on AW in the spring and she won at Wolverhampton (1m4f, Tapeta) in April; beaten 14l on turf in June and 23l on her return to AW three weeks ago, however; needs to get back on track but that's not beyond the realms.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (4) (33/1 +0%)Brunello Breeze |
33/1(+0%) | (4) Brunello Breeze 33/1, No chance after terrible start but didn't look the most enthusiastic when well beaten in a handicap at Catterick latest; effective 10-12f, best on AW, but acts on heavy and good; plenty to prove including temperament. All three wins have come here (1m2f-1m4f); yet to recapture his best for this yard and he looked to wonder whether he fancied leaving the stalls on his return from 146-day break at Catterick a fortnight ago.. |

Jedhi Knight returns to this shorter trip with a shout, having finished runner-up at Pontefract last month. Muhib reverts to the all-weather with place claims, but this won't take much winning and NIFFLER could prove good enough. The son of Isfahan failed to feature in three starts on the Tapeta earlier in the year, but he makes his handicap debut off a lowly mark as a consequence and Sir Mark Prescott's charge will relish the extra yardage.

1st (3) (22/1 -100%)Highwayman |
22/1(-100%) | (3) Highwayman 22/1, Went clear with ease, improved up in trip when winning an auction race at Killarney by 9l last time; effective 1m-1m3f, acts on good; progressing but maiden win had knocks, needs more. Modest form at up to 1m before a runaway success when stepped up in trip at Killarney; promoted a punitive 17lb for that success over just short of 1m4f; faces a tough task at this level.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (7/2 +13%)Cannes |
7/2(+13%) | (2) Cannes 7/2, Outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test, ran to form 4 1/2l third in a handicap at Goodwood most recent run; effective 8-12f, acts with cut and on good to firm; form franked, progressive in maidens, may have more to offer over staying trips. Twice runner-up before winning a C\u0026D maiden in May; well beaten when favourite on handicap debut in the King George V Stakes at Royal Ascot (won by a stablemate); looked short of pace when third of eight in a 1m4f handicap at Goodwood; extra two furlongs should help.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (5/1 -11%)Piazza San Marco |
5/1(-11%) | (5) Piazza San Marco 5/1, Poorly placed in race dominated from front beaten 3 1/2l in Criterium International (Group 1) at Saint-Cloud last time; in good form prior; top course trainer; returning from long layoff; effective 1m, acts on soft, will get further; showed high class form at 2, holds lofty entries and has more to come over staying trips. Holds a big chance in theory, though possibly flattered by a juvenile rating of 105 acquired after a four-race campaign, highlighted by a Galway maiden win; beaten favourite when fourth of eight in a high-class edition of the 1m1f Eyrefield Stakes won by Christmas Day; ended with a low-key display in a Group 1 at Saint-Cloud; unknown quantity as a stayer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (10/3 +26%)Wyman |
10/3(+26%) | (7) Wyman 10/3, Outpaced, went clear with ease, improved up in trip when winning a 3yo race here by 4l last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 10-13f, yielding and good to firm; improving, looks thorough stayer, more to come. Some promise in two runs as a juvenile; improved from his seasonal debut here to win a Curragh maiden, both over 1m2f; did well on the latter occasion as he had to wait for room; backed that up with victory in a four-runner event over 1m5f here four weeks ago; speedy pedigree on the dam's side, stamina derived from his sire.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (17/2 +29%)Teologia |
17/2(+29%) | (9) Teologia 17/2, Did it easily and improved again up in trip when winning a handicap at Down Royal by 5 1/2l last time; effective 10-13, acts on soft and good; hugely progressive handicapper, worth step up in class. Promoted a total of 24lb in the ratings for a Down Royal hat-trick; steps into a different league, needs to find considerably more to pose a serious threat.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (9/1 -13%)Madbadanddangerous |
9/1(-13%) | (4) Madbadanddangerous 9/1, Improved again needing every yard when winning a handicap at Galway by a neck last time; effective 10-12f, acts on soft and yielding; more to come over middle to staying trips, worth step up in class. Consistent apart from a poor Navan run in May; bounced back from that reverse to win the Ulster Derby over 1m5f at Down Royal in June; maintained progress with a Galway festival win, defying a big burden in a lower handicap grade; stays well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (11/4 +31%)Abbotsford |
11/4(+31%) | (1) Abbotsford 11/4, Quickened clear with ease, improved up in trip when winning a maiden at Galway by 7 1/2l last time; effective 10-12f, acts with cut; should improve again for further, worth step up in class. Lightly-raced son of Frankel; gelded after finishing second to an odds-on shot in 1m2f Cork maiden in May, having run green; one-time Irish Derby entry left an impression he would stay this far with a smooth 1m4f win at Galway; progressive sort is out of a half-sister to St Leger winner Brian Boru.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (25/1 -25%)Keepsgettingbetter |
25/1(-25%) | (8) Keepsgettingbetter 25/1, Ran to form up in class when second beaten 4l in a 3yo race here latest; effective 1m-1m5f, should get further, acts on a sound surface and AW; progressive as gone up through trips, should have more to come but vulnerable in this grade. Won Dundalk handicaps over 1m and extended 1m2f in the spring; has remained dependable on turf; however, she was no match for Wyman here last month and faces a tough task on these terms.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (50/1 -100%)Trojan Fighter |
50/1(-100%) | (6) Trojan Fighter 50/1, Ran to form beaten 7l in a handicap at Down Royal last time; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 13f, will get further, acts on yielding; looks short of stakes class. Unraced at two; showed plenty of improvement to land a 1m5f Ballinrobe maiden on his third start; met trouble in running in Navan race won by the smart Limestone; may struggle to reverse Down Royal handicap form with Madbadanddangerous.. |

PIAZZA SAN MARCO drops in class and is taken to make a winning return. The Aidan O'Brien-trained colt was far from disgraced in a couple of runs in Group company last autumn and the St Mark's Basilica colt can land this Listed prize before going on to better things. Wyman has looked a thorough stayer in both wins this season, so this longer trip could see Jessica Harrington's charge improve further, while the lightly-raced Abbotsford has plenty of potential and could also shape well.

1st (4) (9/4 +10%)Captain Cool |
9/4(+10%) | (4) Captain Cool 9/4, Scored by 20l off a 4lb lower mark here penultimate start; bit too free but ran to form last time, same mark here; effective 2-2 1/2m, suited by sound surface; progressive over hurdles and fences. Progressive 6yo with 3-5 strike-rate over fences, including two 2m1f course wins this season; ran big race when close third behind Sir Tivo here (2m1f, good to firm) last month and could still have a bigger performance in him over this longer trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 -45%)Crebilly |
4/1(-45%) | (1) Crebilly 4/1, Scored by a head off a 9lb lower mark at Market Rasen penultimate start; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2m, may not quite get 3m; remains fairly treated on best form and return to chasing a plus. Exploited reduced hurdle mark when winning narrowly over about 2m6f (if additional yardage is included) at Market Rasen (good) in May and remains very well handicapped on older chase form but he's not as good as he was and others have more appealing profiles.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (8/1 -7%)Parisencore |
8/1(-7%) | (5) Parisencore 8/1, Didn't stay comfortably held in a handicap chase at Perth last time; effective 2m-2m4f, best on sound surface; remains on workable mark and drop in trip will suit. Gained both chase wins over 2m4f; bumped into progressive rival when second at Hexham (1m7f, good) two starts ago and travelled well until stamina ebbed away over 3m at Perth last month; remains on a workable mark; can make his presence felt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (3) (4/1 +0%)Bagheera Ginge |
4/1(+0%) | (3) Bagheera Ginge 4/1, Improved suited by positive ride back down in trip at sharp track landing a handicap by 9 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark here last time; enjoys making it; off a short-break; effective 2m4f-3m, suited by sound surface; inconsistent. Front-runner who is 2-3 since fitted with a visor this season, with both wins gained over 2m6f here (good to firm); may not have things all his own way today and this drop back in trip is probably not ideal but further progress is not out of the question.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (2) (9/2 +63%)Magistrato |
9/2(+63%) | (2) Magistrato 9/2, Won this last year off 22lb lower; keen, unable to dominate, needed run comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time; enjoys making it; effective 2-2 1/2m, needs sound surface; should come on for latest but mark stiff. Quirky front-runner who began last season's hat-trick with an emphatic success in this race (good to firm); made low-key reappearance over hurdles in March and has been off for another five months since but not out of this if back in prime form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (8/1 -60%)Sir Tivo |
8/1(-60%) | (6) Sir Tivo 8/1, Ran to form suited by positive ride at sharp track landing a Silver Fox Classic Handicap Chase (gbb Race) by 1 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark here last time; enjoys making it; frontrunner suited by 2m on good; inconsistent, still fairly treated on best form but stamina concerns. Front-running veteran who is well suited by good or faster ground and battled well to score over 2m1f here last month, his 12th chase win; not sure to be ideally suited by today's longer trip but no surprise if he makes another bold bid.. |

Crebilly is 7lb lower than his last appearance over fences and the nine-year-old, who won over hurdles at Market Rasen in May, is well handicapped to strike if his jumping holds up. That said, BAGHEERA GINGE is preferred after his comfortable success over further here at the end of June and a 5lb rise seems more than fair. Captain Cool was third behind Sir Tivo here, although the step up in trip may see him reverse the form.

1st (7) (3/1 +25%)Ladies Well |
3/1(+25%) | (7) Ladies Well 3/1, Scored by 5l off a 9lb lower mark here penultimate start; conceded first run and left with too much to do down in trip, did best of those held up, last time, 1lb higher here; effective 2 3/4-3m, suited by sound surface; progressive over fences, could remain ahead of mark. Hurdle winner at Ballinrobe in 2025 got off the mark over fences over C\u0026D last month in ready fashion (good to yielding); raised 8lb but was best of the rest when chasing home an easy winner at Roscommon last time (2m6f, soft); up 1lb more but should be thereabouts.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (12) (11/2 -22%)Cullenwaine |
11/2(-22%) | (12) Cullenwaine 11/2, Improved on recent form back up in trip landing a handicap by 15l off a 9lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m3f-3m1f, acts on soft and good; back in form, revised mark will demand more. Modest strike rate of 2-22 over fences but was on a real going day over C\u0026D last time, blowing the field apart by 15l (good to yielding); up 9lb for that, but if he's in the same form he has a huge chance; overall record suggests that's no sure thing though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (14/1 -27%)Tropical Image |
14/1(-27%) | (11) Tropical Image 14/1, May not have stayed comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time; effective 2m6f, acts on good; inconsistent but chance on penultimate run if stamina holds up. Fine run in a 2m3f Listowel beginners' on penultimate when a close runner-up; didn't back it up over C\u0026D last time when beaten 26l; 1lb drop not enough to tempt.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (3/1 +25%)Western Model |
3/1(+25%) | (5) Western Model 3/1, Improved up in trip landing a handicap by a neck off a 3lb higher mark at Roscommon last time; effective 2 3/4-3m; generally consistent and well treated on hurdle form, could gain first chase win. Doubled his hurdles tally when successful by a neck at Roscommon last month (3m, good); rated 3lb below that winning mark over fences and he has placed on a couple of occasions from nine chase starts; one of the likelier candidates.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (20/1 -67%)Smallcraftwarning |
20/1(-67%) | (2) Smallcraftwarning 20/1, Poor chase return down the field in a handicap chase at Galway most recent; effective 2m-3m1f, versatile ground wise; must bounce back. Is 1-13 over fences with the win coming over C\u0026D last summer off 91 (yielding to soft); hard to predict this term with some okay runs in defeat interspersed with poor efforts; his run at Galway was one of the latter when tailed off over fences but not a bad effort over hurdles here on penultimate; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (12/1 +14%)Mount Shenshan |
12/1(+14%) | (10) Mount Shenshan 12/1, Below form back down in trip down the field in a handicap chase at Galway most recent; effective 2 1/2m, gets sharp 3m, acts on soft, good; inconsistent, weak finisher, goes well at Tramore. Winning hurdler is 0-12 over fences; ran okay in handicap chases at Clonmel and Wexford over 2m7f/3m2f earlier this year; well beaten over 2m2f at Galway last time (good); may want it softer.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|B| (9) (17/2 +15%)Wakey Wakey Man |
17/2(+15%) | (9) Wakey Wakey Man 17/2, Ran to form, outstayed late beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle at Punchestown last time; off a short-break; effective 2m4f-2m7f with cut; in fair form over hurdles and unexposed in this sphere. Soundly beaten in both his points and the same story on sole chase start under rules in a beginners' at Tramore in October (2m5f, yielding); 0-12 over hurdles but has some placed form this season.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (13) (14/1 -17%)Malton Groove |
14/1(-17%) | (13) Malton Groove 14/1, Flattened out late comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time; trainer in form; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on soft, good; fair mark on best form but unreliable maiden. Maiden in all spheres after 34 starts, but was second at Downpatrick in June off 1lb higher (3m, good); sent off favourite up in grade at Wexford next time (2m7f, good), but was a modest third; well beaten over C\u0026D latest; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (4) (10/1 -33%)Kilkee Bay |
10/1(-33%) | (4) Kilkee Bay 10/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; scored by 5l off a 5lb lower mark at Roscommon three starts back; may not have stayed 3m1f last time, 1lb lower here; usually held up; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on any; inconsistent, well treated on hurdle form. Made the breakthrough when winning a Roscommon handicap chase off 90 in June (2m6f, yielding to soft); chased home Cullenwaine over C\u0026D next time when 15l behind; tailed off back at Roscommon last time (3m1f) when didn't appear to stay the trip on soft ground.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (17/2 +39%)Je Suis |
17/2(+39%) | (6) Je Suis 17/2, Beaten early down in trip down the field in a handicap hurdle at Wexford most recent; blinkers first time; effective 3m, acts on good; thorough stayer not one to rely on. Point winner whose best run came at Sligo in June when beaten 3.5l into third in extended 3m1f hurdle; not at same level in two subsequent outings over hurdles; back over fences now, but previous five starts in this sphere were moderate; blinkers on.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (8) (22/1 -10%)Walk Away Harry |
22/1(-10%) | (8) Walk Away Harry 22/1, Improved a little for debut experience when fourth beaten 12l in a beginners chase chase at Listowel latest; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2m; inconsistent maiden. His best hurdles form for Charles Byrnes seems long gone and he's now regressive; 12l behind Tropical Image in a six-runner 2m3f Listowel beginners' chase last time.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (40/1 -60%)King Ferdinand |
40/1(-60%) | (3) King Ferdinand 40/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; cheekpieces first time; effective 2m4f-3m4f; out of form and needs to prove ability remains following long lay off. Veteran hasn't won since August 2024; tailed off here in July, a run sandwiched between two pulled-up finishes; new headgear not enough to tempt now back over fences.. |

WESTERN MODEL is a nine-race maiden over fences, but scored over hurdles recently and is ideally suited by this distance and good ground. A dual hurdles winner, he has finished second three times over fences and having struck from a rating of 97 over the smaller obstacles at Roscommon, should compete from this lower chase mark. Three-time winner Cullenwaine defeated Kilkee Bay by 15 lengths at this venue last month, but is now 9lb higher. Ladies Well sprung a surprise in the earlier division of that event here and ran well at Roscommon subsequently.

1st (3) (85/40 +29%)Star Of Commala |
85/40(+29%) | (3) Star Of Commala 85/40, Tired, perhaps idled late but good effort from wide draw when winning a maiden at Wolverhampton by a neck last time; effective 7f, acts on AW; tall, light-framed filly, seems quite talented and should improve and figure. In rear throughout on her debut at Wolverhampton (6f) but there was no fluke about her 125-1 success there over 7f as she travelled well before clinging on to repel a subsequent Newmarket winner; has to be taken seriously; Molly Keegan-Price was aboard that day.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/7 +22%)Queen's Hame |
4/7(+22%) | (1) Queen's Hame 4/7, Good attitude and came clear takingly when winning a novice at Nottingham by 4l last time; trainer in form; effective 8f, acts on a sound surface; looks type to get beyond a mile but should progress anyway and go well. Drops back from 1m; too free when a beaten favourite on debut but made no mistake with a comfortable 4l success at Nottingham (again market leader) and she's looking a good prospect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (22/1 -10%)Roccapina |
22/1(-10%) | (8) Roccapina 22/1, Still green but much better run than debut when fourth beaten 6 1/2l in a novice at Ripon latest; stays 1m, acts on fast ground; gave impression last time that there was more to come. Changed yards after debut and was always behind in a small field at Ripon last month.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (66/1 -32%)Miss Veronika |
66/1(-32%) | (2) Miss Veronika 66/1, Couple of very modest efforts in bumpers; hasn't run since November and is going to find things happening too quickly. Had wind surgery prior to finishing comfortably held in two bumpers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (22/1 -57%)Suntino Lady |
22/1(-57%) | (9) Suntino Lady 22/1, Finished off with some promise when fourth in a maiden at Redcar first-time out; speedily-bred but stays 7f, acts on fast ground; type to make marked improvement and could fill one of places. Fourth of eight behind a well-bred winner at Redcar (7f) and she was getting the hang of things late on (beaten just under 8l); improvement seems likely.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (16/1 +27%)Janora |
16/1(+27%) | (7) Janora 16/1, Cotai Glory filly; half-sister to Archduke Ferdinand, very useful at 6f; dam very useful at 8f; likely to need the experience and tough ask on debut. Fourth foal; half-sister to winners Archduke Ferdinand (6f-1m; RPR 94) and Lorna B (6f; 86); dam 1m/9.4f winner (81); would need to see market confidence behind her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (8/1 -14%)Navertity |
8/1(-14%) | (5) Navertity 8/1, Showed minor promise when fourth in a novice at Wolverhampton first-time out; bred to want 10f+ in time; stocky, scratchy-actioned sort but should improve from debut. Ran to a modest level in one AW run over 6f for Harry Charlton and sold on for 5,500gns.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (250/1 -25%)Mystic Wave |
250/1(-25%) | (4) Mystic Wave 250/1, Extremely green and unenthusiastic when well beaten in a novice at Redcar only start; sprint-bred; may know more than terrible debut but attitude a big worry. 250-1 when completely tailed off over this trip at Ripon three weeks ago.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (250/1 -100%)Bowie Lass |
250/1(-100%) | (6) Bowie Lass 250/1, Tired very badly late last time over 7f; speedily-bred; doesn't look a sprint type but has run as if doesn't get this trip. Out of a Listed 6f winner but has shown pretty much nothing in two 7f races at Redcar.. |

QUEEN'S HAME was an impressive winner at Nottingham and that looks the strongest form on offer. She led for most of the way, so this shorter distance shouldn't prove an inconvenience for the Haggas filly and she's taken to defy a penalty. Star Of Commala is also penalised having returned the shock winner at Wolverhampton on her seasonal debut. She can give the selection the most to think about, with Roccapina preferred of the rest.

1st (5) (7/4 +50%)Ben Hur |
7/4(+50%) | (5) Ben Hur 7/4, Ran to form up in trip on handicap debut 6l third in a handicap at Galway most recent run where probably challenged too early; effective 12-16f, acts on heavy and good; in good form and unexposed in both codes, more to come as a stayer. Useful juvenile hurdler last season reappeared from six months' absence when well-backed favourite on flat handicap debut at Galway festival, not quite getting home over 2m1f, having led home turn, finishing a good third of 19; 3lb higher but likely major player back slightly in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (12/1 -20%)Cooley's Mist |
12/1(-20%) | (9) Cooley's Mist 12/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 5lb lower mark here penultimate start; disappointing up in trip off revised mark in first time headgear last time, same mark here; effective 9-13f, acts on heavy and good; consistent until latest, mark demands more. Off the mark over C\u0026D last month on good ground, soft ground probably against him at Galway (beaten when hampered); cheekpieces retained and could bounce back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (11/1 -57%)Pavilion End |
11/1(-57%) | (4) Pavilion End 11/1, Ran to form back down in trip at stiff track beaten 3/4l off this mark at Naas last time; effective 11-16f, suited by AW, acts on good; yet to add to debut win but back in form of late. Just 1m4f AW maiden win to his name but arrives on the back of two fine runs on turf, had the run of the race when pipped over 1m6f at Fairyhouse (rated race) and again made plenty of use of when third in 1m3f Naas handicap early this month; definite claims back up in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (4/1 +27%)Darius Dark |
4/1(+27%) | (6) Darius Dark 4/1, Scored by a neck off a 8lb lower mark at The Curragh penultimate start; below form up in class off revised mark last time, same mark here; effective 12f on sound surface; progressive until latest, handicapper may have caught up. Much improved when upped to 1m4f, rattling off a hat-trick of wins, at Cork, here and the Curragh; didn't do himself justice at Galway when keen but remains of interest.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (11/2 +8%)Lauderdale King |
11/2(+8%) | (12) Lauderdale King 11/2, Ran to form beaten a length off this mark at Gowran Park last time; off a short-break; effective 10f, should get further, acts with cut; could have more to come stepped up again in trip. Good opening efforts in handicaps, staying on late over 1m2f at Cork and raced handier over slightly shorter at Gowran, weakening late on when only beaten 1l into fourth; upped in trip now and contender if he stays.. |

6th (11) (14/1 +0%)Gaelic Drills |
14/1(+0%) | (11) Gaelic Drills 14/1, Bit free and met trouble, ran to form beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap at Limerick last time; effective 10-12f, acts with cut and on good; could build on latest. Quite lightly-raced 3yo has a bit to find with Darius Dark on Curragh run, plenty keen and not clear run at Limerick on latest; may yet do better if settling.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (12/1 -100%)Celtic Druid |
12/1(-100%) | (7) Celtic Druid 12/1, Ran to form beaten 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Dundalk last time; trainer in form; effective 9-14f, probably best at 12f, acts on a sound surface and AW; can go well again, but more needed up in trip. Back-to-back Dundalk wins in the spring, and close second at Dundalk last month; previously put up his best turf effort of the season when close third to Darius Dark over 1m4f at the Curragh; steps up in grade.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (18/1 -50%)Sea Coral |
18/1(-50%) | (2) Sea Coral 18/1, Short of room when closing, bit below form up in class in first time cheekpieces beaten 8l in a handicap at Gowran Park last time; in good form prior; effective at 12/13f, acts on soft and good; in good form until latest, must bounce back. Hasn't added to Bellewstown maiden win of last summer although creditable handicap placings last month at Tramore and Ballinrobe; reportedly saddle slipped leaving stalls at Gowran on latest so that run forgiven; others look better handicapped.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (22/1 -22%)Harry's Legacy |
22/1(-22%) | (8) Harry's Legacy 22/1, Never competitive in strong race down the field in a handicap at Galway most recent; cheekpieces first time; usually held up; effective 14-17f, acts on soft and good; inconsistent and on long losing run. Two flat wins in 2022 included here over 1m7f; long losing stretch since and not too much to take from recent efforts; cheekpieces now added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (33/1 -136%)Satono Chevalier |
33/1(-136%) | (1) Satono Chevalier 33/1, Scored by 1/2l off a 3lb lower mark at Limerick three starts back; below form back down in trip and up in class last time; effective 10-16f, acts with cut, on good and AW; in great form over middle distances until latest, this easier but quicker ground a worry. Much improved this year, recording wins at Navan, Ballinrobe and over just shy of this trip at Limerick in June; held off career-high marks last twice, trip possibly too far at Killarney and in Galway premier handicap; drops back in grade so respected, but this ground may be on the quick side.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (3) (33/1 -50%)Ehteyat |
33/1(-50%) | (3) Ehteyat 33/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Down Royal latest; returning from a break; effective at 2m, suited by cut; inconsistent over hurdles of late, Flat mark demands more. Dual AW winner whose turf win came over 1m6f on heavy at Listowel last year; back from hurdling campaign last season and stablemate of top-weight may just need this.. |

COOLEY'S MIST failed to fire at Galway, but is worth another chance to confirm the promise he showed when scoring over C&D on his previous start. Lightly raced for trainer Harry Rogers, the four-year-old looks a strong stayer who has scope for improvement off his current mark. While his below-par run at the Festival last month is an obvious concern, the son of Churchill deserves another chance. Lauderdale King is almost certainly ahead of the handicapper. Having shaped with promise over shorter trips, the step up in distance looks a positive move. Ben Hur may not have quite stayed an extended 2m at Galway so has to enter calculations dropped back in trip.

1st (1) (11/8 -25%)Dunkerque |
11/8(-25%) | (1) Dunkerque 11/8, Scored by 4 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark at Newton Abbot penultimate start; ran to form down in trip last time, same mark here; effective 2 1/2m, acts on good; in career best form for new yard, probably a bit flattered by latest win. Won his first three races over fences (2m4f to an extended 2m5f) and, in first-time cheekpieces, ran well enough at Cartmel (2m1f; Krak 15l behind) to believe he's still on a workable mark; hard to knock.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (5/2 +29%)Krak |
5/2(+29%) | (3) Krak 5/2, May have found ground on the quick side 20l third in a handicap chase at Cartmel most recent run; effective 2 1/2m, may need some cut; can do better for new yard but ground quick enough. Winning hurdler in Ireland and runner-up over hurdles on final run for the Twiston-Davies yard; back over fences (0-4) in two runs for Dan Skelton and didn't see either race out with much purpose (2m/2m1f), and those were after a wind operation; reservations for now and returning to further isn't an obvious positive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (2) (7/4 +7%)Samuel Spade |
7/4(+7%) | (2) Samuel Spade 7/4, Scored by 2 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Worcester three starts back; ran to form benefitting from drop in class last time, same mark here; effective 2 1/2-3m; useful handicap hurdler, unexposed over fences. Five wins over hurdles and opened chasing account over 2m7f at Worcester in June off 5lb lower (under Beau Morgan claiming his 5lb); respectable since on two visits to Uttoxeter, in a Class 2 and last time behind a Skelton improver; good chance.. |

DUNKERQUE finished 15 lengths ahead of Krak when they were second and third at Cartmel last month and while the margin might be tighter over this more conventional course, it's hard to envisage the form being turned around if they both complete. Samuel Spade is effective at this level and he may be a bigger danger to Dunkerque if he handles cutting back in distance.

1st (10) (13/8 +64%)Miners Bridge |
13/8(+64%) | (10) Miners Bridge 13/8, Flattened out late back from break having raced freely when fourth beaten 32l in a handicap hurdle at Cork latest; effective at around 2 1/2m, wants decent ground; well treated on old form, should come on for latest. Won a maiden hurdle here in 2024; went close to adding to his tally in a Tipperary handicap chase in July last year off 3lb lower (2m1f, yielding); well beaten over hurdles at Cork on return, but has tended to improve with runs in the past.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (11/1 -100%)Tippin And Tappin |
11/1(-100%) | (6) Tippin And Tappin 11/1, Yard has won 2 of last 10 runnings of race; pulled up in a handicap chase here latest where went too fast; effective at around 3m, acts on yielding, good; progressive chaser until latest, mark demands more. Back-to-back handicap chase winner last summer, the second of those over 2m7f here (yielding to soft) off 92; sent off favourite for the same race last month but weakened quickly and was pulled up; cheekpieces worn that day are now left off, but questions linger.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (16/1 -60%)Kings Jet |
16/1(-60%) | (2) Kings Jet 16/1, Returned to form down in class in first time cheekpieces on quick reappearance when second beaten 4l in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan latest; effective 3m, needs decent ground; not one to rely on building on latest. Winning pointer and hunter chaser; unseated on seasonal return at Wexford before tailed off at the Galway festival; positives to take from his runner-up finish in a four-runner Kilbeggan handicap chase last time in first-time cheekpieces (retained).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (11/2 -22%)Illtakehimmyself |
11/2(-22%) | (1) Illtakehimmyself 11/2, Yard won this last year; improved back down in trip landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 7lb lower mark here last time; effective 2 1/2-3m on heavy and good; progressive, capable of better yet now chasing. Consistency over hurdles this season was rewarded here last time when gaining a first win (2m5f, good) off 7lb lower; must carry joint top weight on chasing debut but he's in good form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (22/1 -175%)Toon Town |
22/1(-175%) | (7) Toon Town 22/1, Scored by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Limerick penultimate start; every chance, bit below form back over hurdles last time; effective 2m-2m3f; generally in good form for new yard, appears better over fences. Won a Wexford handicap hurdle for Brendan Walsh in 2024 off 87, and first success since came in a 2m4f Limerick handicap chase in May (good to yielding) off 6lb lower; disappointed as favourite when attempting to take advantage of his lower hurdles mark at Cork last time (2m1f, good); not ruled out now back chasing.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (7/2 +56%)Burru |
7/2(+56%) | (5) Burru 7/2, Ran to form, did plenty early when fourth beaten 11l in a beginners chase chase at Tramore latest; effective 2 1/2-3m, suited by sound surface; good mark on hurdle form. Hasn't run badly at times in six runs over fences, including when fourth of nine in a Tramore beginners' chase last time (2m6f, good); won here over hurdles on seasonal return/stable debut in May (2m4f, good to yielding) off 104; could go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (16/1 +43%)Ferdia |
16/1(+43%) | (11) Ferdia 16/1, Every chance, below form down the field in a handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan most recent; effective 2m-2m5f, suited by good; out of form veteran. On a long losing run and needs to improve markedly on recent efforts over fences; hard to fancy.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (50/1 -52%)Seeitoldya |
50/1(-52%) | (8) Seeitoldya 50/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter latest where failed to stay 3m; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on good; must bounce back. Safely held at Uttoxeter in a 2m4f handicap chase and a 3m handicap hurdle last month; now 0-10 under rules; others preferred.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (12/1 +14%)Ollie La Ba Ba |
12/1(+14%) | (4) Ollie La Ba Ba 12/1, Needed run comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Roscommon last time; off a short-break; effective 2m2f-2m6f on heavy and good; races off lower chase mark but better over hurdles. Best of three chase runs was the first at Kilbeggan last year, when sixth of 13; beaten 24l at Clonmel in October off 1lb higher on handicap chase debut; two starts over hurdles since not too encouraging.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (3) (12/1 -118%)Gaelic Des Chastys |
12/1(-118%) | (3) Gaelic Des Chastys 12/1, Yard won this last year; ran to form when second beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Thurles latest; effective 2 1/2m, acts on any; good mark, consistent. Consistent gelding; placed on all four starts off a lower mark over hurdles since a handicap chase win off 98 at Listowel in September (2m4f, good to yielding), form has worked out well; back over fences now on his first run since January; never runs a bad race.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (12/1 -20%)Shannon Bank |
12/1(-20%) | (9) Shannon Bank 12/1, Scored by 3/4l off this mark at Listowel penultimate start; off a short-break; effective 2m-2m6f, suited by decent ground; may do better over further over fences. Bagged a first hurdles win at Listowel in June on her second run for the yard (2m, yielding); hasn't looked as good over fences in two tries to date.. |

It is hoped that GAELIC DES CHASTYS will be ready for his first start since January because last year's Listowel Festival success reads well. An able type at this level, he was well enough held in third-place here last August but reverts to a more favourable trip and, notably, from that last chase outing at Listowel, five of the beaten horses won races soon afterwards. Stablemate Illtakehimmyself is progressive and won over hurdles here last month, but debuts over fences. Tippin And Tappin was out of sorts here last month but is a previous course winner, while ex-hunter chaser Kings Jet ran well in Kilbeggan but would prefer a longer trip.

1st (1) (1/6 +50%)Spirited Gesture |
1/6(+50%) | (1) Spirited Gesture 1/6, Green but quickened nicely to win easing down when 2 1/4l winner in a novice at Newmarket (July) on debut; trainer in form; suited by 7f, acts on fast ground, give will suit action; typical Kingman, classy with bags of speed and smart prospect. By Kingman and a sister to smart winners Calyx and Coppice; noticeably strong in the market when defying inexperience (drifted left) in a good-looking 7f novice on the July course at Newmarket, where she travelled well and found plenty; entered in the Group 2 Rockfel and Group 1 Fillies' Mile; she could well be destined for that level.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (5/1 +0%)Angel In My Heart |
5/1(+0%) | (2) Angel In My Heart 5/1, Stiff 6f suited and outstayed rivals when winning a novice auction race at Pontefract by a neck last time; effective 6f, 7f may suit even better, acts on fast ground; progressing and may be more to come over this longer trip. Showed a bit over 5f and then justified favouritism over 6f at Pontefract; however, that was by a narrow margin and the form has taken some knocks.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (7/1 +0%)Rubyroo |
7/1(+0%) | (7) Rubyroo 7/1, 24 Mar; 140,000gns Supremacy filly; half-sister to Sayidah Dariyan, high-class at 6f; dam moderate at 7f; likely type and may figure on debut. 140,000gns yearling; fourth foal; sister to 5f 2yo winner Supreme Diamond (RPR 66) and half-sister to 6f winner Sayidah Dariyan (Group 3; 115); dam French 7f winner; could be interesting, all the more so if strong in the betting.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (40/1 +20%)One Shot Kodi |
40/1(+20%) | (5) One Shot Kodi 40/1, Badly impeded and would have been 2-3l closer beaten 4l in a novice here last time; effective 6f, should get 7f well, acts on AW; better than bare form of latest run and could contend. In the process of showing more when hampered over 6f here last time out; capable of better but extremely hard to envisage her coping with Spirited Gesture.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (25/1 -25%)All I Know |
25/1(-25%) | (3) All I Know 25/1, 15 Mar; 40,000gns Pinatubo filly; half-sister to Chess Grand Master, very useful from 12f to 16f; dam high-class at 6f at 2yo; top course jockey; speed and stamina in pedigree, market move needed to enthuse. Pinatubo filly who cost 40,000gns as a yearling; eleventh foal; half-sister to seven winners including Bullingdon (7f turf 2yo/1m AW; RPR 94), Garrick (1m AW; 92), Chess Grand Master (bumper and 1m4f/2m AW Flat; 91) and Ginger Fox (6f/7f; 89); dam 5f 2yo and 7f Group 3 winner (106); positive pedigree.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (80/1 -60%)Texting |
80/1(-60%) | (8) Texting 80/1, Better than bare form, green and never had much room beaten 7 1/2l in a novice at Ripon on debut; speedily-bred; ran reasonably first time out with interrupted passage and good bit to come. Finished midfield at Ripon (6f), beaten just over 7l at odds of 66-1; should win races in time but this is highly unlikely to be one of those.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (18/1 +45%)Ortanique |
18/1(+45%) | (6) Ortanique 18/1, 7 May; Oasis Dream filly; half-sister to Royal Favour, very smart at 10f; yard usually leave plenty to work on and this one may need time. Third foal; half-sister to winners Royal Favour (UAE 9.5f dirt; RPR 96) and Nochebuena (1m4f; 93); dam Peruvian 1m/1m2f Group 1 winner, half-sister to Peruvian champion grass horse More Than Words; the sire instils some speed into the pedigree; the market should be enlightening.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (150/1 -20%)Noccalula Falls |
150/1(-20%) | (4) Noccalula Falls 150/1, Short of pace and needing some give down to 5f on fast ground in a maiden at Beverley most recent start; longer trip here may help as will easier surface but lot to find. Beaten in the region of 12l in a 6f novice and 5f maiden; one for handicaps.. |

SPIRITED GESTURE scored nicely at Newmarket on debut, despite running green. The Kingman filly will be a lot wiser for that experience and the Fillies' Mile entrant will likely prove a warm order to go in again in this company. Angel In My Heart rates the chief threat on her victory at Pontefract, where she gave the strong impression this extra furlong would suit. Rubyroo is a newcomer to note for the future.

11/4(+45%) | (12) Uncle Goalie 11/4, Bit free but ran to form 6 1/2l third in a maiden at Galway most recent run; effective 7f/1m on yielding and good; chance with improvement likely. Respectable debut run at Gowran in May over this trip, returning from a couple of months' break with decent third at Galway over 7f; more possible back at 1m.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (14) (9/2 +40%)My Shayla |
9/2(+40%) | (14) My Shayla 9/2, Showed minor promise beaten 6l in a maiden at Dundalk on debut; bred to be suited by around 1m; improvement required to figure. Phoenix Of Spain filly cost E13,000 as a yearling, related to three prolific and useful winners, two of them on AW; tongue-tied, never competitive but not discredited on Dundalk debut last month; may need more experience. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (13) (5/2 -67%)Goddess Of War |
5/2(-67%) | (13) Goddess Of War 5/2, Yard won this last year; very promising effort 7 1/2l fourth in the Conditions Race at Gowran Park first-time out; effective 9f, acts on good; debut form franked, should progress. South African-bred filly was set a stiff task on debut in Gowran winners' contest last month, showing promise when a staying-on fourth over 9.5f; technically not yet a 3yo (born in October 2023) so can be expected to improve with time; not sure this drop in trip will suit.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (11/1 -47%)Holy Lettuce |
11/1(-47%) | (6) Holy Lettuce 11/1, Improved for debut experience when second beaten 3l in an auction race at Cork latest; effective 1m, acts on good to firm; has shown enough to land a maiden. Hint of promise on debut at Killarney last month and nice bit of improvement 9 days later when staying on late to chase home a long odds-on shot at Cork (clear of remainder); over 1m; more possibly needed but definite contender.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (8/1 -45%)Port Arthur |
8/1(-45%) | (10) Port Arthur 8/1, Outpaced, improved but wanted stiffer test 4 1/2l third in the Conditions Race at Naas most recent run; trainer in form; effective 6f, will get further in time; steadily progressing, more to come now upped in trip. All three runs have been over 6f, showing definite promise last autumn at Naas and the Curragh, reappearing early this month at former venue when never dangerous staying-on third of 5 (couple of 80+ rated rivals behind) in conditions event; half-brother Texas Rock won over 1m so good chance he'll stay, big player if he does.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (125/1 -150%)Nottooshabby |
125/1(-150%) | (9) Nottooshabby 125/1, Too much to do, ran to form well beaten in a maiden here latest; sire a miler, dam a sprinter; may need more time. Midfield finish here a fortnight ago was a bit more encouraging but likely more one for handicaps in due course.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (9/2 0%)Scorcher's Son |
9/2(0%) | (2) Scorcher's Son 9/2, Sold for 450,000 guineas as a yearling; gelding by top-class miler Too Darn Hot; half-brother to Cell Sa Beela, smart at 1m; top yard gets plenty of first time out winners, watch betting. Too Darn Hot gelding was a 450,000gns yearling; brother to 7f/7.4f 2yo winner Zenjabeela (inc AW; RPR 91), half-brother to three winners inc Cell Sa Beela (7f/7.4f inc 2yo/Listed; 102); dam unraced half-sister to 1m Group 1 winners Alpha Centauri and Alpine Star; well-bred 4yo making a belated debut, has to be respected.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (33/1 -18%)Time Whisperer |
33/1(-18%) | (11) Time Whisperer 33/1, Some promise on debut well beaten in a maiden at Gowran Park only start; off a short-break; effective 1m; improvement required to figure. Late gains into midfield on debut at Gowran (1m) in May, catching the attention of the stewards (rider reported he ran green before staying on); improvement likely although lacks a recent run.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (66/1 -32%)Eldorado Glory |
66/1(-32%) | (5) Eldorado Glory 66/1, Outpaced, rallied, showed minor promise well beaten in a maiden at Dundalk only start; sire sprinter, dam miler; may need more time. Cotai Glory half-brother to 1m5f turf/2m AW winner Elle Dorado Rock (RPR 69); dam 1m 2yo winner (71), half-sister to Group-placed 9.4f-11.4f winner Majeed; never better than midfield on AW debut five days ago, seems best watched.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (200/1 -150%)Aiteall |
200/1(-150%) | (4) Aiteall 200/1, Never threatened comfortably held in an auction race at Tramore last time; bred to get middle distances; from top yard but lots more needed. Well-bred Wootton Bassett gelding had run in a barrier trial before two ordinary recent runs in maidens, latest when never landing a blow over 1m4f at Tramore five days ago; best watched for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (33/1 +18%)King Of Eze |
33/1(+18%) | (7) King Of Eze 33/1, Improved a little for debut experience beaten 9l in a maiden at Dundalk last time; sire high-class sprinter, dam effective 10f; more needed second start. Boiled over, bolted to post and unseated rider before Curragh debut, where he ran keen and dropped out to finish in rear; hood didn't appear have a major impact at Dundalk last month, can only be watched for now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (200/1 -60%)Aghadrum Boy |
200/1(-60%) | (3) Aghadrum Boy 200/1, Outpaced, ran to form well beaten in a maiden at Dundalk latest; speed on sire's side, dam a bumper winner; improvement needed. Both recent runs suggest he'll be of more interest when going handicapping.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (1) (100/1 -25%)Lonelyharbourwall |
100/1(-25%) | (1) Lonelyharbourwall 100/1, Modest effort well beaten in an auction race at Gowran Park latest; sire sprinter, dam a 12f winner; hard to fancy on Flat debut. Towards the rear throughout on debut in a Roscommon bumper earlier this month and 8 days later didn't count in midfield in Gowran flat maiden (9.5f); hard to see him making the required improvement to feature here.. |

Having split two horses rated, at the time, in the 100s when fourth at Gowran Park, GODDESS OF WAR can get off the mark. Given that she performed so admirably in that winners' race, the Jessica Harrington-trained filly should be difficult to beat stepping into maiden company. Port Arthur is interesting stepping up in trip now having run with credit in three starts over 6f. Bred to appreciate this distance, the Michael Grassick-trained gelding looks one of the biggest dangers to the selection. Uncle Goalie also boasts leading claims having run well in both starts thus far.

1st (1) (3/1 -71%)Glenmalure Flyer |
3/1(-71%) | (1) Glenmalure Flyer 3/1, Scored by 2 1/4l off a 8lb lower mark at Bangor-on-Dee penultimate start; race may have come a bit soon last time; off a short-break; effective 3m, acts on good; point winner is unexposed for new top yard, more to come over fences. Ex-Irish pointer; won comfortably on stable debut at Bangor (3m) and the 18l defeat here was only four days later under a penalty and back over 2m3f; 1lb higher now but good reason to expect much better from her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (13/2 -44%)Illogical Logic |
13/2(-44%) | (4) Illogical Logic 13/2, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; went clear, made too much use of comfortably held in a handicap chase at Newton Abbot last time; off a short-break; effective 3m on good and good to soft; winner off higher mark last summer, inconsistent. Last season ended on a low note, as he wasn't in much form before pulling up here in April behind Yes And Yes; the cheekpieces returned for his June run and he perhaps went off too hard having been clear at one stage (often front runs); has wellbeing issues to address, but he's on a handy mark and Jack Tudor is back aboard replacing a 7lb claimer (up top last three races).. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (7/2 +61%)Flashy Boy |
7/2(+61%) | (5) Flashy Boy 7/2, Below form on quick ground comfortably held in a handicap chase at Newton Abbot last time; effective 2 3/4-3m; should come on for latest but plenty to prove. Limited hurdler; unconvincing point form before finishing tailed off on second run over fences at Newton Abbot (2m5f); he was only 7-2 that day so better was perhaps expected, but he's risky.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (6/1 +20%)Winning Paddy |
6/1(+20%) | (2) Winning Paddy 6/1, Scored by 8l off a 6lb lower mark at Newton Abbot three starts back; effective 3m, suited by decent ground; point winner may have more to offer over fences. 3m2f winner at Newton Abbot in June and his next run was over hurdles; latest defeat, back at Newton Abbot over his winning trip, is harder to forgive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (7/1 +65%)The Kings Soldier |
7/1(+65%) | (6) The Kings Soldier 7/1, Race may have come a bit soon comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time; ran well to a point on chase debut previously; off a short-break; effective up to 3m2f on good; needs more. Nine-race maiden under rules; his third on chase debut two runs back was quite remote and then tailed off on his return to hurdles; 3lb out of the weights.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (3/1 -50%)Yes And Yes |
3/1(-50%) | (3) Yes And Yes 3/1, Improved again landing a handicap by 4 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark at Warwick last time; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2-3 1/4m, acts on good; back in form, could remain ahead of mark. 3-3 beyond 3m, winning over C\u0026D and then readily defying a 5lb rise at Warwick (3m1f); up another 7lb and has been absent for three months, but clearly a likely contender.. |

YES AND YES is hard to ignore on his bid to complete a hat-trick. Having won over C&D in April, the nine-year-old brushed aside a 5lb rise to follow up at Warwick the following month. Freshened up by a short break, a further 7lb hike might not be enough to derail the progression if he picks up where he left off. Glenmalure Flyer and Winning Paddy are the pick of the rest and can make a good fist of things.

(6) (5/1 +0%)Stuntman Steve |
5/1(+0%) | (6) Stuntman Steve 5/1, Every chance, ran to form, well placed off modest pace beaten 3 1/2l off a 8lb higher mark at Bellewstown last time; effective 2m, acts on a sound surface; inconsistent, up against it in this. Dual hurdle winner lost his form over fences (unlucky twice too) earlier this year but posted a solid hurdle effort at Bellewstown last time behind the Galway Hurdle winner; the blinkers worn then are retained and should go well for his in-form yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (6/1 +0%)Piccolo Player |
6/1(+0%) | (9) Piccolo Player 6/1, Ran to form 16l third in a beginners chase chase at Roscommon most recent run; effective 2m, acts with cut; frustrating type but looks well treated back in a handicap. Hurdle winner has been soundly beaten in three chases but put up respectable runs in beginners' events the last twice behind smart sorts, including over C\u0026D; might not be too far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (9/2 +0%)Ballybrittas |
9/2(+0%) | (8) Ballybrittas 9/2, Scored by 2 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Wexford penultimate start; ran to form last time, same mark here; effective 2m-2m4f on a sound surface; still well treated on early chase form. Got off the mark over fences at Wexford last month and a solid effort there since off this mark; needs to find a bit more but shouldn't be far away.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (9/2 +0%)Costacurta |
9/2(+0%) | (4) Costacurta 9/2, Hampered early, unable to dominate as desired when fourth beaten 11l in a handicap chase at Kilbeggan latest; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on good; more to come over fences, could prove tough to peg back. A wide-margin 2m4f Kilbeggan maiden hurdle winner last year but didn't really go on from that over hurdles; similar efforts in defeat in three chase starts, but has to find more dropping down in trip.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (10/1 +0%)Crowsatedappletart |
10/1(+0%) | (1) Crowsatedappletart 10/1, Travelled strongly, found little having looked a big threat comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Cork last time; effective 2m-2m4f, suited by sound surface; better over fences but mark looks high enough now. Five-time chase winner is now off a career-high mark following his win at Wexford in May; was poor over hurdles recently at Cork, but can be expected to do better now back over fences; a player.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/1 +0%)Beauforts Storm |
11/1(+0%) | (5) Beauforts Storm 11/1, Every chance, ran to form when fourth beaten 12l in a beginners chase chase at Wexford latest; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; can do better judged on hurdle form. Bumper and hurdle winner has run well enough in defeat over fences including a fourth at Wexford last time; should be competitive on handicap debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/4 +0%)Femme Magnifique |
11/4(+0%) | (2) Femme Magnifique 11/4, Improved again landing a handicap by 8 1/2l off a 9lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m-2m4f on heavy but suited by good; progressive, remains well treated on debut form. Has hit form back on good ground since switched to this yard, winning chases at Tramore and a career-best when winning over C\u0026D last time; got a 9lb hike for that, but has to be on the short-list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (12/1 +0%)Kilbrin Rocco |
12/1(+0%) | (7) Kilbrin Rocco 12/1, Ran to form down the field in a handicap chase at Galway most recent; in good form prior; effective 2m-2m4f on heavy, good; penultimate placed effort strong form, inconsistent. Dual chase winner won at Tramore in April and was second to Crowsatedappletart at Wexford in May; got badly hampered so ran respectably at Galway last time; capable of being involved.. |

STUNTMAN STEVE hasn't enjoyed much luck over fences, but wasn't beaten far behind Galway Hurdle winner Putapoundinthejar and runner-up Thisistheway at Bellewstown and reverts to chasing with a favourable rating. A dual hurdles winner, he is ideally suited by this distance and good ground and while his jumping has let him down over fences, he is rated 8lb lower in this sphere. Femme Magnifique is in fantastic form but now competes from a career-high mark, while Ballybrittas has been running well in similar races recently.

(6) (7/4 +56%)Star People |
7/4(+56%) | (6) Star People 7/4, Run probably reflected ability on nursery debut beaten 3/4l off this mark at Nottingham last time; blinkers first time; effective 6f, acts on a sound surface; should contend, perhaps one or two others bit more leniently handicapped. Neck second in a match at Ayr (6f, good to firm) last month on first run since being gelded and close third of seven on subsequent nursery debut at Nottingham (6f, good to firm) where he showed bright pace; this first attempt at 5f might be a good move; could be a contender in first-time blinkers.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (3/1 +0%)Casino Star |
3/1(+0%) | (3) Casino Star 3/1, Ran to form beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Haydock last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good; ran respectably on handicap debut and should contend. Went close behind the subsequent Molecomb third in Hamilton maiden (5f, good) last month on third start; beaten 3l when third of five in nursery there (5f, good) subsequently but the first-time cheekpieces might give him a boost and he remains one to be interested in for his top yard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (4/1 -129%)Influencer Man |
4/1(-129%) | (1) Influencer Man 4/1, Good attitude, well handicapped and came clear with 2nd landing a handicap by a neck off a 6lb lower mark at Carlisle last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 5f, acts on good; penalty may not anchor and should go well again. He's improved with each of his three starts and justified favouritism on his nursery debut at Carlisle (5f, good) last Tuesday; the clear runner-up has since gone one better in good style and a 6lb penalty may not stop this gelding on his first AW start, for which cheekpieces go on.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/2 +0%)This Moment |
11/2(+0%) | (2) This Moment 11/2, Good effort looking beaten on merit off this mark at Windsor last time; trainer in form; effective 6f, acts on good and fast ground; drop to 5f interesting and will need to bring some improvement. Went close in two of his three novice races (6f, good) and not beaten far in fourth of five on recent nursery debut at Windsor (6f, good to firm), where shaping as though 5f would be worth exploring; might be in the mix.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (6/1 +57%)Social Spirit |
6/1(+57%) | (5) Social Spirit 6/1, Got behind early and never landed a blow down the field in a nursery at Goodwood most recent outing; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good to firm; mark based on Woodcote 5th and struggling to replicate that. Promising third on debut at Doncaster in May and he's back at 5f for the first time since; however, his form has gone the wrong way and he's been soundly beaten over 6f in his two nurseries; others have less to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (22/1 -57%)May Bee In Profit |
22/1(-57%) | (4) May Bee In Profit 22/1, Probably out of depth in very good nursery at Goodwood most recent start; in good form prior in non-handicaps; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft and good; others look better handicapped but drop in class can help. Improving profile in the spring, winning a novice at Carlisle (5f, good) in May on her fourth start; tailed off at 33-1 on nursery debut at Glorious Goodwood (6f, good to firm) three weeks ago following a two-month break but she's back in calmer waters today and is not written off.. |

Influencer Man scored on his nursery bow at Carlisle last week and is expected to have more to offer, despite carrying a 6lb penalty for that success. However, the vote goes to STAR PEOPLE. The drop to 5f for the first time appears to be the right move after his third at Nottingham and first-time blinkers are another likely source of improvement. Casino Star and This Moment complete the shortlist.

(8) (3/1 +50%)Tachos |
3/1(+50%) | (8) Tachos 3/1, Ran to form benefitting from drop in class beaten 3 1/2l off this mark here last time; cheekpieces first time; effective 8-10f, acts on soft and good to firm; back below last winning mark, could build on recent revival. Last of two wins came here over 1m1f last summer off 74; seasonal-best came over same C\u0026D a fortnight ago when strong-finishing third (from a wide draw) of 22 to Bella Colombia (fourth has won since); nice turn around in weights with that rival here and cheekpieces added; should go well.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (5/1 -82%)Duchess Of Kenli |
5/1(-82%) | (4) Duchess Of Kenli 5/1, Yard has won 2 of last 5 runnings of race; improved for debut experience up in trip back from a break when winning a maiden at Gowran Park by 1 1/4l last time; effective 1m, acts on good; form of maiden win looks good, more to come in handicaps. Half-sister to the yard's Group 3 winner at 7.5f Princess Child; debuted on AW in December and reappeared much improved to land Gowran fillies' maiden last month, plenty green but picking up well to win going away over 1m; likely has more to offer (Group-entered) and could well be up to making an impact off this opening mark.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (5/1 +44%)Pink Oxalis |
5/1(+44%) | (1) Pink Oxalis 5/1, Ran to form beaten 5l in a handicap at Galway last time; effective 1m, acts on soft, good and AW; back in form, mark stiff. Four wins last year, culminating in C\u0026D premier handicap success off 85; pick of this season's form when chasing home a progressive all-the-way 3yo winner at the Curragh (good-to-firm); okay Galway effort on latest under top-weight, so has to enter calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/2 -38%)Thrifty Of Digby |
11/2(-38%) | (5) Thrifty Of Digby 11/2, Scored by a short-head off a 6lb lower mark at Gowran Park three starts back; returned to form back down in trip last time, same mark here; enjoys making it; effective 7-10f, acts on soft and good; in career-best form, mark probably high enough. Front-runner's five wins include back-to-back successes earlier in the summer at Roscommon and Gowran; good run at former venue back at 7f on latest off this mark; should make a bold bid again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (11/2 -22%)Bella Colombia |
11/2(-22%) | (7) Bella Colombia 11/2, Improved again up in trip landing a handicap by a head off a 8lb lower mark here last time; effective 8f, acts on heavy, good and AW; admirably consistent, can go well again but mark has shot up. Improving mare seeking to complete a hat-trick, following a Killarney success when overcoming 7lb rise in 1m1f contest here a fortnight ago, having to wait for an opening and getting first run on runner-up when holding on by a head (pair clear); another 8lb rise to overcome but thriving.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (15/2 +0%)Mallavelly |
15/2(+0%) | (2) Mallavelly 15/2, Probably challenged too soon beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap at Gowran Park last time; in good form prior; effective 7/8f, acts on a sound surface; conditions in favour and every chance of another big effort. C\u0026D winner last summer is without a win this year but two good runs in Curragh contests on quick ground; not at same level at Gowran on latest, having raced prominently; cheekpieces now added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (10/1 -11%)Glory To Be |
10/1(-11%) | (3) Glory To Be 10/1, Scored by 3/4l off a 5lb lower mark at Fairyhouse penultimate start; raced unfavourable far side last time; trainer in form; effective 5-7f, acts on heavy and good to firm; in fine form of late, mark demands more. Dual handicap winner over 7f this year, here on soft ground in April and on good ground at Fairyhouse last month; stiff task back in trip in Scurry Handicap latest; only second attempt at 1m now.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (12/1 +14%)Marmeladova |
12/1(+14%) | (6) Marmeladova 12/1, Scored by a neck off a 3lb lower mark here three starts back; never threatened ridden to see out the trip last time, same mark here; effective 8-12f on sound surface; must bounce back after a couple of below par efforts. Added to her Ballinrobe maiden win when landing a 1m2f handicap here last month off 75; both runs since have been disappointing however, getting worked up beforehand at the Curragh and never landing a blow upped to 1m4f at Tramore five days ago; back down in trip here.. |

Despite taking another step up in class, the Willie McCreery-trained BELLA COLOMBIA can complete the hat-trick. A mare in the form of her life at present, the daughter of The Last Lion is proven around this track and was value for a bit more than the winning margin here last time. Although the handicapper didn't miss her, the five-year-old may just remain a step ahead for now. Gowran Park maiden winner Duchess Of Kenli is totally unexposed and open to any amount of improvement. Having had just the two starts, she enters handicaps off a reasonable mark. C&D winner Mallavelly has been running well of late and has to enter calculations for the Ger Lyons stable.

(1) (10/3 +17%)Reteti |
10/3(+17%) | (1) Reteti 10/3, Ran to form but out-battled late beaten 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark here last time; off a short-break; effective at 2m on good to soft, good; consistent but frustrating, maiden for a reason. 0-8 over hurdles but runner-up twice over C\u0026D on fast ground since returning from a break in May; won't mind if there's rain about and ought to be right in the thick of things again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (7/2 +59%)Mayday Games |
7/2(+59%) | (6) Mayday Games 7/2, Scored by 7l off a 6lb lower mark here penultimate start; got racing too early last time, 1lb lower here; effective 2m-2m5f; not one to rely on. Opened account over C\u0026D (good) on stable debut in June, readily drawing 7l clear; might still have more to offer for his new trainer but was safely held when favourite at Uttoxeter last month; needs to bounce back.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (4/1 +33%)Jet Patrol |
4/1(+33%) | (4) Jet Patrol 4/1, Won this last year off 13lb lower; outpaced, returned to form beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time; effective 2m on sound surface; enjoyed productive autumn for new yard, running into form this term. Won this race on stable debut a year ago (good to firm) and was also on target at Plumpton (2m, good) last September; returned from break with two respectable runs last month and, with Sean Bowen booked again, features prominently in calculations.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (4/1 +33%)Northern Rose |
4/1(+33%) | (11) Northern Rose 4/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Uttoxeter last time; suited by 2m, gets 2m3f, needs sound surface; consistent of late, may have a bit more to offer now she's finally had her head in front. Posted several good efforts in defeat over C\u0026D before finally making her breakthrough at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last month, her 27th start over hurdles; might be a shade vulnerable after recent 4lb rise but ought to give another good account.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (13/2 +46%)Diesel Line |
13/2(+46%) | (5) Diesel Line 13/2, Below form up in class well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen latest; effective at 2m on sound surface; below par this year. Yet to hit top gear after three runs this year (suffered heavy fall on penultimate outings) but won twice at Uttoxeter (2m, good) last summer and is back on a good mark now; could have a say.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (14/1 -40%)Lord Cauvelliere |
14/1(-40%) | (7) Lord Cauvelliere 14/1, Outpaced, ran to form but looked in need of stiffer test beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot last time; off a short-break; effective 2m, suited by quick ground; bumper and point winner, more to come over hurdles possibly over further. Unplaced all five hurdling starts but wasn't beaten far in his two handicaps in the spring (2m/2m1f, good) and now returns to this track for first time since comfortably winning a bumper last spring; interesting. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (16/1 -14%)Versatile |
16/1(-14%) | (3) Versatile 16/1, Yard won this last year; never travelled, couldn't go gallop down the field in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; unexposed dual purpose performer, may do better in handicaps over hurdles. 1-25 on the Flat; kept on for third on handicap hurdle debut at Southwell (2m, good) in June but two lesser efforts have followed and it's questionable whether the refitted cheekpieces will make the necessary difference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (18/1 -64%)Clever Relation |
18/1(-64%) | (8) Clever Relation 18/1, Not given a hard time back from break, improved when second beaten 9l in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter latest; tongue-tie first time; off a short-break; gets 2m over hurdles; Flat winner should come on for latest, more to come. No match for comfortable winner when second of five on stable/handicap debut at Uttoxeter (2m, good; reportedly made respiratory noise) in June but that was his first run for 462 days and he now has a tongue-tie fitted; improvement possible.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (22/1 +33%)Glance At Me |
22/1(+33%) | (10) Glance At Me 22/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle here latest; hood first time; absent for very lengthy period; effective 2m, acts on good to soft and good; inconsistent, likely to need this. Scored off 4lb higher at Fakenham (2m, good) in April 2024 but absent since pulled up twice the following June; had wind op in June and is fitted with first-time hood/tongue-tie for this reappearance; others have much less to prove.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (50/1 -127%)Angel Of My Dreams |
50/1(-127%) | (12) Angel Of My Dreams 50/1, Outpaced, looked in need of stiffer test 49l third in a novice hurdle here most recent run; usually held up; acts on good to firm; all to prove. Showed no significant promise in three novice/maiden hurdles here (2m-2m2f) in June/July and is 8lb out of the weights for this handicap debut; significant improvement required.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (66/1 -100%)Eyeeye |
66/1(-100%) | (2) Eyeeye 66/1, Disappointing Flat return down the field in a maiden at Galway most recent; effective 2m over hurdles; exposed maiden in both codes, best watched on stable debut. Predictably struggled in good-quality Irish Flat maiden last month and is now 0-30 under all codes; has much more realistic assignment now back in a low-grade handicap hurdle for new stable but still makes only limited appeal.. |

NORTHERN ROSE built on two second-placed finishes here to gain a deserved success at Uttoxeter. Although that was the first visit to the winner's enclosure of her career, the six-year-old mare is dependable and a 4lb rise still appears workable. Reteti also arrives in good form and is less exposed than the selection so has to be feared. The returning Berry Edge is another must for consideration on his debut for Dan Skelton and first start after wind surgery.

(5) (2/1 +0%)Iron Sword |
2/1(+0%) | (5) Iron Sword 2/1, Yard won this last year; bit free but improved for debut experience 6 1/2l third in a 4yo bumper at Roscommon most recent run; effective 2m, acts on good; shaped well both starts so far, should progress. Posted similar efforts in defeat in bumpers at Punchestown and Roscommon in varying ground conditions; was just in front of Rocky Alfonso on latter occasion but might struggle to uphold that form today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (9/2 +0%)Rocky Alfonso |
9/2(+0%) | (6) Rocky Alfonso 9/2, Bit keen but ran well for a long way 7l fourth in a 4yo bumper at Roscommon first-time out; effective 2m, acts on yielding; should improve if settling. Flat-bred gelding ran creditably on bumper debut at Roscommon on ground that would have been soft enough; should have improved since and this livelier ground can suit better, so looks a big player with improvement to come.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (11/8 +0%)Killeedy |
11/8(+0%) | (8) Killeedy 11/8, Outpaced, rallied, very promising effort 3l fourth in a Mares bumper here first-time out; trainer in form; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m1f, acts on good; can improve if ridden more positively. Was weak in the market and ran green on debut over C\u0026D last month but still showed potential; the form of that race has taken some knocks, but this mare should be sharper today and still be a big player; tongue-tie added.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (12/1 +0%)Streamhill |
12/1(+0%) | (9) Streamhill 12/1, Outpaced, needed stiffer test beaten 6 1/4l in a bumper at Kilbeggan last time; off a short-break; effective at around 2m on sound surface; bounce back needed, may want further in time. Some decent efforts in defeat in four bumper starts for this yard and Terence O'Brien; has to build on that to win.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (13/2 +0%)The Last Line |
13/2(+0%) | (4) The Last Line 13/2, Lot to do, very promising debut runner-up beaten a short-head in a 4yo bumper at Cork only start; absent for very lengthy period; effective 2m, acts on good; debut form franked at Listed level, big chance if fit but absence a concern. Was just denied by a smart rival in a Cork bumper on debut in 2024 over this trip; has a long absence to overcome, but if he can run even close to that form, then would have a big shout; the market can guide with an inexperienced rider aboard.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (20/1 +0%)Stary Notions |
20/1(+0%) | (2) Stary Notions 20/1, Mahler gelding; half-brother to Lady Of Longstone, smart from 19f to 24f; tough enough task on debut. Eighth foal; half-brother to winners Lady Of Longstone (bumper/2m3f-3m hurdle) and Seangoell (2m6f hurdle); dam bumper and 2m6f/2m7f hurdle winner, half-sister to two smart hurdle/chase winners; has a decent pedigree, but is best watched on debut for future reference.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (50/1 +0%)Walkineezy |
50/1(+0%) | (7) Walkineezy 50/1, Disappointing form to date down the field in a 4yo bumper at Galway most recent; could try racing off the pace; improvement possible. Posted a promising debut over C\u0026D before being tailed-off in a Galway bumper; has to resume progress in a major way.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (100/1 +0%)Suresuresure |
100/1(+0%) | (3) Suresuresure 100/1, Green, mistakes comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Roscommon last time; inconsistent over hurdles and in bumpers; hard to fancy for now. Some fair efforts in bumpers and over hurdles, but has to find significant improvement to score.. |

KILLEEDY wasn't beaten far here last month and is now fitted with a tongue-tie. Out of a bumper winner and a sibling to a dual bumper victor, she needs to improve from that debut effort to cope with capable rivals but should progress and seems suited by a sound surface. The Last Line has notable form having been pipped by the exciting Windbeneathmywings in July 2024, although he hasn't raced since and will improve from this reappearance. Iron Sword finished narrowly ahead of Rocky Alfonso at Roscommon and can confirm his superiority. Con Did It is by Conduit and has a fine Flat pedigree.

(4) (3/1 +50%)Lethal Nymph |
3/1(+50%) | (4) Lethal Nymph 3/1, Well backed, probably needed stiffer test at minimum trip beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at York last time; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on any; in solid form, strong pace and testing track suit at this trip. C\u0026D win off 1lb higher last November; retains all his ability as a 7yo and he is a major player back on Tapeta.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (4/1 -14%)Little Mi Mi |
4/1(-14%) | (9) Little Mi Mi 4/1, Progressive, game and improved again landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off a 6lb lower mark at Hamilton last time; effective 5/6f, acts on good and AW; on the up but mark up 6lb for just over a length win, one to consider though. Five wins this year, three of them over C\u0026D; took her form to a new level when winning at Hamilton 19 days ago but a 6lb rise and stronger opposition could find her out today.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (7/1 +30%)Smart Vision |
7/1(+30%) | (6) Smart Vision 7/1, Ran to current form beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Sandown last time; effective 5-7f, acts on any; mark looks very stiff based on last five runs. Stable's quiet year has seen him plummet down the weights and he is now on an extremely tempting mark; didn't run badly at Sandown four weeks ago and he has run well in all three visits to Newcastle; shortlisted.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (7/1 -40%)Azuinthejungle |
7/1(-40%) | (8) Azuinthejungle 7/1, On an upward curve, game and probably progressed a little more winning a handicap by 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Thirsk last time; effective 5/6f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; handicapper has caught up but should still contend. Completed a sprint hat-trick last summer and he has repeated the feat this time around, coming here on the back of wins at Ayr, Beverley and Thirsk; up 4lb as he bids for the four-timer; should be in the thick of it again.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (8/1 -7%)Castan |
8/1(-7%) | (11) Castan 8/1, Form going the right way and ran a bit better again beaten 2l off this mark at Beverley last time; top course jockey; suited by 5f, acts on sound surface; back down to last winning mark and form on an upward trajectory. Multiple C\u0026D winner; ran his best race for some time when third of ten at Beverley last week; major player back on AW.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (8/1 +68%)Buzz Box |
8/1(+68%) | (10) Buzz Box 8/1, Second start off a break and better effort beaten 4 1/4l in a claimer at Wolverhampton last time; effective 5/6f, acts on AW; should be race-fit now and may return to form at favoured venue. Three course wins for Bryan Smart; yet to shine for his current trainer but he is edging down the weights and he shouldn't be underestimated.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (11/1 +56%)Duran |
11/1(+56%) | (5) Duran 11/1, Continued in poor form down the field in a handicap at York most recent start; off a short-break; suited by 5f, effective 6f, acts on any; out of sorts of late but handicapper is easing mark. Made a promising return to action at Beverley (5f, good to soft) in April but two runs since have been underwhelming; on a dangerous mark and there is encouragement for AW on pedigree.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (14/1 +13%)True Promise |
14/1(+13%) | (1) True Promise 14/1, Scored by 3l off a 7lb lower mark at Wolverhampton three starts back; poor effort last time; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface; form has tailed off last two starts and looks a risky prospect. Better on AW than turf so two defeats on the grass aren't especially damaging to his claims here; won easily at Wolverhampton (5f) on his most recent start and he is respected back on Tapeta.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (16/1 -14%)Star Material |
16/1(-14%) | (2) Star Material 16/1, Blinkers on but wouldn't jump off in a handicap at Redcar latest; ran quite well previous start without head gear; trainer in form; effective 5/6f, acts on soft and a sound surface; clearly not the most straightforward but stronger handling may do the trick. Often slowly away but his refusal to race at Redcar last month was a new low; blinkers tried there are quickly dispensed with; hard to recommend after latest display.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (22/1 +33%)Changeofmind |
22/1(+33%) | (3) Changeofmind 22/1, Scored by 2l off a 4lb lower mark at Pontefract in May; possibly made too much use of last time; suited by 5f, acts with cut and on good; bit below best of late and this first run on all-weather. Ended a losing run at Pontefract (5f, good to soft) in May; not so good since and others are more persuasive ahead of his AW debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(7) (25/1 -194%)Copper Knight |
25/1(-194%) | (7) Copper Knight 25/1, Would have been a length closer with clear run beaten 3l off a 2lb higher mark at Chester last time; suited by 5f, acts on any; fair mark, first time on AW in two years. Grand servant to connections and he was recording the 19th win of his long career when successful at Beverley (5f, good to soft) in May; four subsequent defeats have seen him slip to a mark 2lb lower than for that win; has won over C\u0026D but likely vulnerable to younger rivals.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (28/1 -211%)Too Much |
28/1(-211%) | (13) Too Much 28/1, Still going away line and ran to best recent form winning a handicap by 2 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark here last time; effective 5-7f, acts on good to soft, fast ground and AW; stiff track suits, mark tougher but contender. Back to form with a bang when winning a C\u0026D handicap 26 days ago; that was a lowly Class 6 event though and a 7lb rise against deeper opposition looks beyond her.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (33/1 -136%)Ice Cold Alex |
33/1(-136%) | (12) Ice Cold Alex 33/1, No obvious excuse comfortably held in a handicap at Pontefract last time; off a short-break; suited by 5f, seems to stay 6f, may need a sound surface; bit frustrating, must bounce back. A fair 5f juvenile winner; back to form with fourth in 5f Beverley handicap in May and didn't enjoy a smooth run (also stumbled 1f out) when sixth of seven at Pontefract (5f) last time; returns from a break in a competitive race and others may have his measure.. |

AZUINTHEJUNGLE continues to progress at a rapid rate of knots and arrives having landed a hat-trick at Thirsk earlier in the month. The four-year-old may prove tough to stop in his current mood and he can reverse Newcastle form with Little Mi Mi from the end of June. The latter has won since at Hamilton and looks to be the most obvious threat, while recent C&D scorer Too Much heads the remainder.

(7) (4/1 +60%)Mount Ruapehu |
4/1(+60%) | (7) Mount Ruapehu 4/1, Probably wanted a bit further beaten 4l in a 5f handicap at Hamilton last time; effective 5-7f, but 6f probably ideal, acts on soft, good and AW, doesn't want it fast; return to 6f may suit and could come back to form. Won three sprint handicaps at Southwell in the spring; form has dipped more recently but he has slipped in the weights and Jack Nicholls takes off a handy 5lb; market instructive.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(9) (9/2 +55%)Multaneighttothree |
9/2(+55%) | (9) Multaneighttothree 9/2, Disappointing after promise previous start here last time way back in February; effective 1m, acts on AW; big gelding, has ability but erratic so far and likely to need the run. Just modest form in three 1m runs here early in the year (flattered by peak RPR in a slowly run race); goes handicapping at a modest level but the drop in trip needs to have a positive effect.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(6) (9/2 +25%)Get Up Everybody |
9/2(+25%) | (6) Get Up Everybody 9/2, Ran to form seeming to stay 7f beaten 2l off a 1lb higher mark at Doncaster last time; effective 5/6f, just gets 7f, acts on good to soft and a sound surface; consistent and drop back to 6f may bring a little more but tough weight. Exposed maiden who is proving expensive to follow, beaten favourite on his last four starts; running well enough to be right in the picture here though.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) (11/2 +15%)Operation Gimcrack |
11/2(+15%) | (2) Operation Gimcrack 11/2, Back to form beaten a neck off a 2lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; top course jockey; effective 7f, acts on good to soft, good to firm and AW; ran well latest but up 2lb and drop to 6f a worry. Two AW wins earlier in the year and he was back at his best when second at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 19 days ago; has his first 6f run since his racecourse debut today but it shouldn't be a problem; high on the list.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(4) (17/2 -89%)Gemini Star |
17/2(-89%) | (4) Gemini Star 17/2, Well backed and much better effort on return beaten 2l off a 2lb lower mark at Thirsk last time; off another break; suited by 6f, may not get 7f, acts on any; came back to form last time on seasonal debut but absence since a worry. Modest strike-rate but she ran well on her seasonal and stable debut at Thirsk (6f, good), finishing second of 17; 2lb rise fair enough and she needs serious consideration.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(5) (10/1 +29%)Donald |
10/1(+29%) | (5) Donald 10/1, Stayed 7f and decent effort when fourth beaten 5l in a handicap at Doncaster latest; effective 5-7f, acts on a sound surface; still a maiden and experimenting to find right distance. The handicapper has been in command this summer and although he didn't run badly at Doncaster 19 days ago, he will need more for the switch to AW.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(12) (12/1 -20%)Wait For It |
12/1(-20%) | (12) Wait For It 12/1, Made too much use of when fourth beaten 4 1/4l in a classified race at Catterick latest; effective at 6/7f, acts on good, fast ground and AW; form has tailed off and hard to fancy. 15-race maiden; in fair form on turf this summer, placed over 6f twice before fair 7f efforts on her last starts; the return to 6f won't hurt and she did run well on AW once when trained in Ireland.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(8) (12/1 -85%)White Umbrella |
12/1(-85%) | (8) White Umbrella 12/1, Likes some give and back to form landing a handicap by 3/4l off a 4lb lower mark at Ayr last time; effective 6/7f, acts on AW, prefers some it on soft side on turf; stiffer task but in decent form and may contend again. Four AW wins (all at Wolverhampton) to her name; arrives on the back of a good win at Ayr (6f, good to soft) ten days ago and should be fine at this track; one to consider under her penalty.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(11) (12/1 -100%)Asadjumeirah |
12/1(-100%) | (11) Asadjumeirah 12/1, Benefited from pace collapse and back to form when winning a classified race here by a length last time; effective at 6f, suited by AW; track and trip suit, fair mark, needs them to go too fast again. Hardly prolific but he has six C\u0026D wins on his record, the latest three weeks ago when coming from off the pace to win decisively in 0-50 classified company; this is tougher but we know he's capable when in top form.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(13) (16/1 -60%)Desert Master |
16/1(-60%) | (13) Desert Master 16/1, Sweating heavily but solid run back to 6f 4l third in a classified race here most recent run; stiff 5f suits, just about gets 6f, acts on a sound surface; decent run back last time and can be in the mix if repeats that. C\u0026D winner; on a long losing run but there have been enough good runs this year to give him an each-way squeak.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(14) (22/1 +12%)Newyorkstateofmind |
22/1(+12%) | (14) Newyorkstateofmind 22/1, Poor effort beaten 5 1/4l in a classified race at Thirsk last time; effective 5/6f, appears best at 5f nowadays, acts on a sound surface; frustrating type, on long losing run and largely unreliable. Regressive veteran; finished second at Catterick (5f, good) in May but little to celebrate since; vulnerable once more.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(10) (33/1 -230%)Mart |
33/1(-230%) | (10) Mart 33/1, Made a lot of use of and tiring when squeezed out late beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark at Brighton last time; suited by 6f, acts on any; has tumbled down weights, chance off this weight. Has a course win (5f) amongst his seven wins but the latest was back in May 2025; two respectable turf runs for Des Donovan and he's one to consider.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(3) (66/1 -100%)Secret Road |
66/1(-100%) | (3) Secret Road 66/1, Poor run despite drop to 7f beaten 8l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; effective 6-8f, acts on soft, good and AW; out of sorts but did run as if 6f might help last time. Eight-time winner; made a winning stable debut for Laura Mongan (1m, AW) in March but that wasn't a springboard to better things; sold for 2,000gns in July; return to 6f should suit on stable debut.. |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
(1) (66/1 -100%)Ottawa |
66/1(-100%) | (1) Ottawa 66/1, Wide trip and likely needed the run down the field in a handicap at Southwell most recently; effective 6f, acts on soft and AW; should strip fitter second start back but much more needed. Consistency wasn't his strong suit for his former yard and his recent stable debut was hardly chock full of promise; drops in grade but comes with risks attached.. |

GEMINI STAR was sent off favourite on her yard debut for the Birketts when runner-up at Thirsk in May and it would be no surprise if she went one better on this occasion. White Umbrella returned to winning ways at Ayr last week and has to be of interest under a 4lb penalty. Others for the shortlist include Asadjumeirah and Wait For It.

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.
