13:50 Curragh Handicap 6f - 25 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (12/1 -71%) My Mate Alfie	12 12/1(-71%)	(1) My Mate Alfie 12/1, C&D winner. 14/1, good ½-length third of 11 to Givemethebeatboys in Phoenix Sprint Stakes at this C&D (good to firm) 36 days ago, never nearer. Yard in good form. Each-way claims. Consistent sort will be bang there if running to his best and getting some luck in running.
2	6 2nd (6) (7/1 +56%) Torivega	7 7/1(+56%)	(6) Torivega 7/1, 9/2, good ½-length third of 8 to Heavenly Power in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 29 days ago, running on late. Booking of Egan a plus. Should continue to give a good account. Strong traveller and will appreciate coming off a strong pace here; should go close.
3	4 3rd (4) (40/1 -21%) Tango Flare	40 40/1(-21%)	(4) Tango Flare 40/1, 40/1, 3¾ lengths tenth of 11 to Givemethebeatboys in Phoenix Sprint Stakes at this C&D (good to firm) 36 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Good third to My Mate Alfie in the Dash here but well beaten twice since; others preferred.
4	22 4th (22) (16/1 -60%) Keke	16 16/1(-60%)	(22) Keke 16/1, Very much on upward curve and completed hat-trick when narrowly taking 14-runner handicap over C&D (good to firm) 36 days ago. 4 lb rise fair and is a big player. 14lb rise for three wins leaves him still on a reasonable mark, even if he is 1lb wrong.
5th	11 5th (11) (8/1 +33%) Over The Blues	8 8/1(+33%)	(11) Over The Blues 8/1, Lightly-raced winner. 10/1, creditable 3¼ lengths fifth of 11 to Shandy in Ballyogan Stakes at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago.

6th	16 6th (16) (9/1 +55%) Summerghand	9 9/1(+55%)	(16) Summerghand 9/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Respectable sixth of 19 in handicap (6/1) at York (6f, good to firm) 22 days ago, nearest finish. Yard having good spell. Not taken lightly. Still performs with credit in big sprint handicaps and has an each-way chance.
7th	17 7th (17) (9/1 -13%) Greek Flower	9 9/1(-13%)	(17) Greek Flower 9/1, C&D winner. Made the frame all 3 starts this term, latest when very good second of 15 in handicap at this course (6.3f, good to firm) 57 days ago, running on. Looks sure to go well again. Second in the Rockingham and up 2lb for her second in the Scurry last time; big chance.
8th	2 8th (2) (12/1 +40%) Saint Lawrence	12 12/1(+40%)	(2) Saint Lawrence 12/1, 9/1, respectable 4 lengths fifth of 9 to Spycatcher in Prix de Meautry at Deauville (6f, soft) 21 days ago. Warrants respect back in handicap company. Fallen short in stakes company and in big handicap company this season but remains capable.
9th	8 9th (8) (7/1 +30%) Strike Red	7 7/1(+30%)	(8) Strike Red 7/1, C&D winner who bounced back to best when second of 19 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and is a big player. Back to form when collared on the line in a big handicap at York last month; big player.
10th	10 10th (10) (14/1 -40%) Heavenly Power	14 14/1(-40%)	(10) Heavenly Power 14/1, 3-time C&D winner. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (4/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 29 days ago by neck from Apache Outlaw, always holding on. Enters calculations. Edged out Apache Outlaw in a C&D handicap last month; up 4lb and should not be far away.
11th	18 11th (18) (20/1 -67%) Apache Outlaw	20 20/1(-67%)	(18) Apache Outlaw 20/1, Creditable neck second of 8 to Heavenly Power in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 6/1) 29 days ago, running on. Others preferred for win purposes. Back to form when touched off by Heavenly Power here last month; 2lb higher now.
12th	12 12th (12) (25/1 -79%) Apricot Ice	25 25/1(-79%)	(12) Apricot Ice 25/1, C&D winner. 5½ lengths tenth of 11 to Shandy in Ballyogan Stakes (22/1) at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Stable in good form. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Exposed in stakes company last twice; tongue-tie tried but the stable second string.

14th	14 14th (14) (66/1 -32%) Laugh A Minute	66 66/1(-32%)	(14) Laugh A Minute 66/1, Course winner. Ninth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Navan (5.8f, good to firm) 17 days ago, merely closing up late. Makes limited appeal. Out of form of late and has dropped 10lb; needs it softer too; others preferred.
15th	26 15th (26) (33/1 -32%) Moltophino	33 33/1(-32%)	(26) Moltophino 33/1, Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (13/2) at Cork (6f, good to firm) 4 days ago. Booking of Kennedy a plus. Still looking for first success. Okay run in a 6f handicap at Cork on Wednesday but will struggle here from 9lb wrong.
16th	25 16th (25) (80/1 -220%) Universally	80 80/1(-220%)	(25) Universally 80/1, Latest win at Naas in July. 8/1, below form fifth of 13 in handicap at Navan (5.8f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others have achieved more. 9lb penalty for Naas July win; 4lb lower here but still 5lb wrong and faces an uphill task.
17th	20 17th (20) (18/1 +28%) Bold Optimist	18 18/1(+28%)	(20) Bold Optimist 18/1, Course winner. Latest win here in August. 12/1, sixteenth of 22 in handicap at York (5.4f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Others more persuasive. Never a factor after a tardy start in a valuable heat at York last month; tough task here.
18th	13 18th (13) (200/1 -400%) Arnhem	200 200/1(-400%)	(13) Arnhem 200/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap (20/1) at Navan (5f, good) 8 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Mid-division in a 5f Navan handicap last week; hard to fancy at present.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, 2¾ lengths sixth of 8 to Aesop's Fables in listed race (4/1) at Naas (5f, good to firm). Off 119 days.

20th	7 20th (7) (20/1 +50%) Follow Me	20 20/1(+50%)	(7) Follow Me 20/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. Latest win here in May. Twenty eighth of 29 in handicap (28/1) at Royal Ascot (8f, firm) 87 days ago. Back down in trip. Others look better treated. Hat-trick bid scuppered at Royal Ascot and not seen since; back over 6f and could figure.
21st	21 21st (21) (12/1 +25%) Jon Riggens	12 12/1(+25%)	(21) Jon Riggens 12/1, C&D winner. Respectable 2¼ lengths fourth of 8 to Heavenly Power in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 6/1) 29 days ago, never nearer. Looks competitive on form. Runner-up on five occasions; not beaten far in fourth behind Heavenly Power here in August.
22nd	15 22nd (15) (100/1 -300%) Sturlasson	100 100/1(-300%)	(15) Sturlasson 100/1, Winner at Navan in May. 9¼ lengths last of 10 to She's Quality in listed race at Tipperary (5f, good, 25/1) 14 days ago.

Latest win at Cork in July. 7/2, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) 45 days ago. Can make presence felt. Has to bounce back from a sub-standard showing at Goodwood last month; respected though.
24th	3 24th (3) (40/1 -186%) Shandy	40 40/1(-186%)	(3) Shandy 40/1, Career best when winning 11-runner Ballyogan Stakes at Naas (5.9f, good to soft, 50/1) 21 days ago by head from Firebird. Stable having good spell. Looks on stiff mark back handicapping here. Won the Group 3 Ballyogan Stakes at Naas last month; needs plenty of rain to be a factor.
25th	19 25th (19) (50/1 -52%) Gunzburg	50 50/1(-52%)	(19) Gunzburg 50/1, 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Cork (7f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Without success in five starts this year for her current handler; others preferred.

Course winner STRIKE RED is ground-versatile, ideally suited by this distance and finished second in a decent heritage handicap at York last month. He hasn't won since landing the Scurry Handicap here in July 2023 but has performed consistently well in similar hot handicaps and, notably, finished ahead of today's rival Torivega at Royal Ascot and is now 4lb better off with that rival. Torivega, out of a Group 2-winning dam, has had three luckless runs here this year but, being a four-year-old, might continue to progress further. Heavenly Power beat Apache Outlaw (second) to win the August C&D race in which Torivega finished third and the pair have obvious form claims.

STRIKE RED landed a big handicap here last season and returned to that sort of form when runner-up at York last month. He gets the nod in a fiercely competitive contest. Greek Flower, Keke and Heavenly Power make up the shortlist.

The selection is GREEK FLOWER, runner-up in both the Rockingham and the Scurry, and holds the best overall form this season

13:50 Curragh Handicap 6f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:57 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 10f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	10 1st (10) (14/1 -300%) Run Of Luck	14 14/1(-300%)	(10) Run Of Luck 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Showed more when second of 5 in handicap (8/1) at Ffos Las (10f, heavy) 23 days ago, clear of rest. Player. Improved form when second of five on handicap debut (1m2f, heavy); still unexposed.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 -11%) Renesmee	2.5 5/2(-11%)	(1) Renesmee 5/2, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. First run since leaving Martin Dunne when creditable second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 17/2) 13 days ago, despite meeting trouble. Has to be taken seriously for yard who do well with similar types. Ran on well for second on recent stable debut and remains unexposed over 1m2f.
3	4 3rd (4) (7/2 +13%) Blue Hero	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(4) Blue Hero 7/2, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in July. 10/3, eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (13f, good to firm) 29 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down in trip. Merits consideration. Below form when favourite here last month but runs this track well and can bounce back.
4	6 4th (6) (4/1 +43%) Galactic Glow	4 4/1(+43%)	(6) Galactic Glow 4/1, 3-time C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 10/1, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at this course (11.6f, good to firm) 11 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Place claims. Won three over C&D last season and has returned to form lately; respected.
5th	11 5th (11) (8/1 -14%) Bramble Jelly	8 8/1(-14%)	(11) Bramble Jelly 8/1, Followed a good effort with a below-par one when fourth of 5 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 34 days ago. Others more persuasive. Placed over C&D this season but didn't fire last time and strike-rate now stands at 0-15.
6th	7 6th (7) (8/1 +43%) My Brother Mike	8 8/1(+43%)	(7) My Brother Mike 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. 8/1, possibly needed outing on first run since leaving John Stimpson when eighth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 16 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive. Made low-key stable debut last month but was a multiple winner when owner-trained.
7th	3 7th (3) (11/1 +8%) Flame Of Kodiac	11 11/1(+8%)	(3) Flame Of Kodiac 11/1, Latest win at Chepstow in May. Blinkered for 1st time, below form sixth of 10 in handicap there (10f, good to firm, 12/1) 51 days ago. Others preferred. Largely disappointing since causing 66-1 shock off today's mark on seasonal debut in May.
8th	2 8th (2) (18/1 +45%) Lhebayeb	18 18/1(+45%)	(2) Lhebayeb 18/1, Course winner. Possibly still needed run when eighth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at Ffos Las (12f, heavy) 32 days ago. Has work to do. Won three times in 2023 but both runs for new stable this summer were very disappointing.
9th	5 9th (5) (80/1 -60%) Saratoga Star	80 80/1(-60%)	(5) Saratoga Star 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 18 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Still looks too high in weights. A well-beaten outsider in his first two handicaps (1m2f/1m4f); cheekpieces added here.
10th	9 10th (9) (22/1 -38%) Quick Away	22 22/1(-38%)	(9) Quick Away 22/1, Sixth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 10 days ago. Struggling for form at present and others are preferred. Went close on AW in March but has not shown a great deal since; difficult to enthuse over.
11th	8 11th (8) (66/1 -230%) Emanate	66 66/1(-230%)	(8) Emanate 66/1, Bit below form seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (22f, good, 12/1) 19 days ago. Poor on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Others have achieved more. In good form over hurdles this summer but has very uninspiring Flat record.

Only a progressive rival proved too strong for RENESMEE on her stable bow at Windsor 13 days ago and compensation could be on the cards. Alice Haynes' filly makes plenty of appeal racing off a 2lb lower mark and she may prove too strong for chief threat Run Of Luck. The three-year-old proved far more competitive when runner-up on his handicap debut at Ffos Las last time out and another prominent showing is forecast. Galactic Glow is also noted.

RENESMEE is well handicapped on the pick of her form and has joined a yard who has a good record with similar types, so is fancied to build on a promising stable debut and belatedly get off the mark for the season. Blue Hero has a good record at this C&D and is best forgiven his latest effort here, so remains of interest, with Run of Luck also considered after an improved effort last time.

Topweight RENESMEE has a modest strike-rate but she did quite well to finish second on her recent stable debut and is well handicapped.

13:57 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 10f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:05 Doncaster Handicap (Class 3) 5f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (8/1 -45%) Venture Capital	8 8/1(-45%)	(5) Venture Capital 8/1, Got back on the up when taking 6f handicap at Ayr in July and backed that up with good second of 10 at Ascot (6f, good to firm) 36 days ago, Returns to minimum trip now but must enter calculations. Improved for a drop to 6f the last twice; should be quick enough for 5f; not fully exposed.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +33%) Haymaker	4 4/1(+33%)	(4) Haymaker 4/1, Latest win at Goodwood in June. Fifth of 8 in handicap (3/1) at Ascot (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Just 1 lb above last winning mark and must enter calculations. Capable off this mark but can fluff the start; can't rule out, for all he's risky.
3	1 3rd (1) (12/1 +0%) Tees Spirit	12 12/1(+0%)	(1) Tees Spirit 12/1, C&D winner. Eight wins from 31 Flat runs. 50/1, nineteenth of 22 in handicap at York (5.4f, good to firm) 25 days ago, not ideally placed. Needs a couple of these to falter. Excuses the last twice; only 1lb higher than for earlier Sandown win; vulnerable late on.
4	2 4th (2) (5/1 +23%) Badri	5 5/1(+23%)	(2) Badri 5/1, Hit the target on five occasions in 2023, including on final start of campaign (off 12 lb higher) at Ascot. Yet to score this term but figures off a handy mark and ran respectably last time. 12lb lower than for last October's Ascot win; retains ability for new yard; e/w shout.
5th	9 5th (9) (8/1 -14%) Good Earth	8 8/1(-14%)	(9) Good Earth 8/1, Had been given a big chance by the handicapper and back in the groove with 5f victories at Newmarket and Sandown in recent weeks. Remains feasibly treated and is one for shortlist. Chasing a hat-trick after wins at Newmarket and Sandown last month; still well treated.
6th	7 6th (7) (25/1 -25%) Blind Beggar	25 25/1(-25%)	(7) Blind Beggar 25/1, Latest win at Bath in April. 25/1, tenth of 15 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft). Off 147 days. Others more appealing. Capable off this mark and can go well fresh; not sure drying ground will suit ideally.
7th	6 7th (6) (18/1 -80%) Muker	18 18/1(-80%)	(6) Muker 18/1, Latest win at Redcar in June. 80/1, good second of 13 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 17 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Ran well at Southwell 17 days ago but may struggle to confirm placings with Brave Nation.
8th	3 8th (3) (4/1 +53%) Brave Nation	4 4/1(+53%)	(3) Brave Nation 4/1, Won for third time over this C&D last month and arrives on back of good third of 13 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 14/1) 17 days ago. Likely contender. Edging up the weights but in rude health this summer and his C&D record reads 1211.
9th	10 9th (10) (9/1 -13%) Existent	9 9/1(-13%)	(10) Existent 9/1, Twenty eight runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, soft) 22 days ago. Eyeshields on 1st time. Work to do. On a long losing run; retains ability but this looks a bit too competitive; new headgear.
10th	11 10th (11) (11/1 -10%) Arecibo	11 11/1(-10%)	(11) Arecibo 11/1, Unreliable individual. Thirty eight runs since last win in 2021. 11/1, creditable second of 13 in handicap at Haydock (5f, good) 9 days ago. Others more persuasive. Ran well last time and effective over C&D; never been easy to win with though.
11th	8 11th (8) (40/1 -186%) Ready Freddie Go	40 40/1(-186%)	(8) Ready Freddie Go 40/1, Latest win at Thirsk in August. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good, 11/4) 18 days ago. Claims on best form. Thirsk win last month and had excuse at Catterick last time; others stronger here though.

Good Earth took care of his nearest rival by half a length at Sandown last month and he should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick off 3lb higher. However, this is a much tougher assignment and, with that in mind, the vote goes to VENTURE CAPITAL. Kevin Ryan's three-year-old has proved a different proposition since being dropped to 6f on his last two starts and a repeat of his most recent second at Ascot may be good enough. Existent completes the shortlist.

GOOD EARTH arrives in fine form and showed a fine attitude when scoring at Sandown last time. He gets the nod in what looks a competitive opener. Brave Nation and Venture Capital head the list of dangers.

Good Earth isn't opposed lightly in his hat-trick bid but BRAVE NATION (nap) has a fine record over C&D and continues to progress.

14:10 Musselburgh Handicap (Class 6) 8f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (9/4 +25%) Hardman	2.25 9/4(+25%)	(3) Hardman 9/4, Pulled hard but produced a career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 17 days ago. Clearly has some quirks but may do better still if he settles down. Improved for 1m2f at Chelmsford but only up 2lb and should again be competitive.
2	5 2nd (5) (13/2 +46%) Showmethewayhome	6.5 13/2(+46%)	(5) Showmethewayhome 13/2, Shaped as if still in decent form when sixth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at this course (9f, good) 18 days ago but will need more if she's to get off the mark. Respectable in a couple of classified races before finishing well held in a 1m1f handicap.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 -20%) Pearl Sands	3 3/1(-20%)	(2) Pearl Sands 3/1, Career best when winning 6-runner minor event at Ffos Las (8f, heavy, 5/2) 16 days ago. Respected back in a handicap. Ran away with a classified race on heavy; copes fine with this surface; chance.
4	6 4th (6) (5/1 +44%) Uwaittillplaytime	5 5/1(+44%)	(6) Uwaittillplaytime 5/1, 22/1, creditable 4¾ lengths fifth of 13 to Oceanic Wonder in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 36 days ago. More needed again. Seven-race maiden from 5f to 1m; no excuses when fifth to Oceanic Wonder last time.
5th	1 5th (1) (25/1 -213%) Miss Idunn	25 25/1(-213%)	(1) Miss Idunn 25/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, made more impact when sixth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 80/1) 20 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Ran okay last time at Southwell but she carries a lot of weight.
6th	4 6th (4) (7/2 -40%) Oceanic Wonder	3.5 7/2(-40%)	(4) Oceanic Wonder 7/2, Placed several times this season before producing career best to win 13-runner handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm, 7/2) 36 days ago by ½ length from Hardman. Has good chance on form. Cosy Redcar winner and added consistency to her game since fitted in cheekpieces.
7th	7 7th (7) (80/1 -471%) Thea Bell	80 80/1(-471%)	(7) Thea Bell 80/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 11 in handicap (66/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has had breathing operation. Others have achieved more. Well down the field in all her races; did finish closer at Southwell but that was over 6f.

OCEANIC WONDER (winner) accounted for Hardman (second), who has since recorded a triumph of his own, at Redcar last month, and the pair meet on the same terms here. The latter isn't certain to be suited by a drop in trip having won over 1m2f at Chelmsford, so the form is expected to be upheld. However, if likely pace angles Pearl Sands and Showmethewayhome go too hard, then stamina could come into play.

OCEANIC WONDER gained reward for several decent efforts in defeat when off the mark at Redcar last month and Tim Easterby's filly can confirm placings with the quirky Hardman, who has since scored himself at Chelmsford in the interim. Pearl Sands took advantage of a drop in grade at Ffos Las last time and completes the shortlist.

It was only a classified race that PEARL SANDS won at Ffos Las but he did it comfortably and he might be able to kick on from there.

14:25 Curragh Group 2 10f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	8 1st (8) (12/1 +25%) Hanalia	12 12/1(+25%)	(8) Hanalia 12/1, Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 5/2, creditable 1¼ lengths second of 7 to Tarawa in Snow Fairy Fillies Stakes at this course (9f, good) 15 days ago, barely adequate test.

Upped her game further when 2¼ lengths third of 14 to You Got To Me in Irish Oaks at this course (12f, good to firm, 9/1) in July and should be suited by drop back in trip. Player.

PURPLE LILY endured a rough passage in the Irish Oaks but holds today's other three-year-olds on previous form and can also defeat older rivals. She failed by half a length against subsequent English Oaks winner Ezeliya at Navan in April and may have been unsuited by dropping to a mile in the Irish 1,000 Guineas, but the Irish Oaks form here in July is strong with the first two home going on to fill the same positions in the Yorkshire Oaks. The selection has 2lb to find with American Sonja on official ratings and, while she is suited by this distance and finished second in a Deauville Group 1 recently, Joseph O'Brien's charge would prefer some cut in the ground. Elizabeth Jane was a length and a half behind the selection in the Irish Oaks and has solid place claims.

PURPLE LILY ran a cracker in the Irish Oaks last time, despite seemingly being stretched by the longer trip. She is fancied to land the spoils. American Sonja and Elizabeth Jane rate the principal dangers.

The one to beat is PURPLE LILY(nap), who just ran out of steam in the Irish Oaks and should take plenty of stopping over this trip

Having been demoted to second in the stewards' room at Wolverhampton recently, Keep Singing must enter calculations racing off a 2lb lower mark. However, The Kameko filly had previously finished third behind the reopposing BRACKLESHAM BAY, who is taken to complete a double. Jamie Osborne's gelding scored with something in hand on his nursery bow at Chepstow that day and he could make light work of a 5lb rise in the ratings. Bright Era and Bownder can also have a say.

BRACKLESHAM BAY took a marked step forward switched to nurseries when scoring comfortably at Bownder's expense at Chepstow last time. He's bred to do a fair bit better again and he can uphold the form with that rival. Keep Singing, who lost the race in the Stewards' room at Wolverhampton recently, is another one to have in mind.

After running a big race at Wolverhampton on Monday, KEEP SINGING is taken to strike here before the handicapper has a chance to react.

No better than mid-field in 3 starts since, though, and looks vulnerable to better-treated rivals. Won at Thirsk in June but his subsequent form hasn't come up to scratch.
2	1 2nd (1) (18/1 +10%) Golden Mind	18 18/1(+10%)	(1) Golden Mind 18/1, Showed useful form at 2, making the frame in the Chesham Stakes and Vintage Stakes. Off the track for over a year before returning with a respectable ninth of 16 in handicap at York (7.9f, good to firm, 28/1) 23 days ago. Should be sharper now but mark still appeals as stiff. Some classy 2yo form and not disgraced last month on belated reappearance; not ruled out..

TEN POUNDS has been victorious on each of his three starts since finishing fourth on his debut and is improving at a rapid rate of knots. Harry Charlton's three-year-old made a mockery of his opening mark at Newcastle last month and might be up to defying a 9lb hike back on turf. Germanic failed to carry a penalty to success at Thirsk last time, but he was far from disgraced when a short-head second and should make a bold bid on his handicap debut in first-time cheekpieces. Fifty Nifty is another to note.

A hot 3-y-o handicap, with Harry Charlton's TEN POUNDS fancied to extend his winning sequence to 4, looking every inch a smart prospect when scoring at Newcastle last month. Spanish Blaze caught the eye when a running-on fifth at Sandown last time, with Newmarket winner Fifty Nifty, one of several who look open to improvement, completing the shortlist.

Preference is for TEN POUNDS who impressed when winning on his handicap debut at Newcastle to complete a hat-trick.

Official ratings suggest Soul Singer, who remains winless but has shown more than enough to suggest he is up to winning a race of this nature, must have a good chance. Preference is for David and Nicola Barron's WESSEX, though, who hasn't been seen since finishing seventh on debut last year. That race has worked out extremely well and, though the layoff and application of a hood is a slight cause for concern, he might not need his best to land this. All About Neve rates best of the rest.

The Lingfield race WESSEX finished seventh in a year ago worked out very nicely and while he's been off since (and moved yards) he retains plenty of potential. Similar comments also apply to All About Neve returning from even longer off the track, while Soul Singer ought to be a factor at this level.

A poor novice. WESSEX did show some raw ability on his debut for the Meades and is worth chancing on his return.

No reason why she'll get the better of her stablemate this time. Excellent Debutante second; the least likely winner although a big run would not surprise.

Has landed short odds in Silver Flash at Leopardstown and Debutante over C&D since and should make it a perfect 5-5. Sets the standard but her latest win did display vulnerabilities; not a certainty.

BEDTIME STORY has been kept ticking over since her Royal Ascot romp and will be primed for this first Group 1 attempt. By Frankel and out of dual Nunthorpe Stakes winner Mecca's Angel, she is a really smart filly and has won twice since Ascot at the expense of stablemate Exactly. Simmering was flattered to finish as close to Fairy Godmother as she did in the Albany Stakes but, nonetheless, she won in good style at Deauville last month. She seemed to benefit from stepping up to this distance that day and is noted. Lake Victoria and Red Letter met over C&D in June and are up in class.

BEDTIME STORY is an excellent prospect and can provide her trainer with a record-extending tenth success in this Group 1 contest. Her stablemate Lake Victoria can confirm her narrow C&D maiden superiority over Red Letter and fill the forecast spot.

The potentially top-class RED LETTER followed a narrow defeat in June with an impressive maiden success here and could be anything

The heavy ground was a possible excuse for ANNIE EDSON TAYLOR's defeat when runner-up at Ffos Las last month. The return to a sounder surface could prove just the tonic for the daughter of Mayson and a breakthrough victory is forecast. All Ways Glamorous posted his best effort to date when a close-up second at Chepstow 20 days ago and he may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of likely improver Trafalger.

Perhaps ALL WAYS GLAMOROUS can prove too strong for Irish-raider Annie Edson Taylor, who has yet to conclusively prove she's trained on.

Excused last month's defeat on heavy ground, ANNIE EDSON TAYLOR appears to have been found a good opportunity.

9th	12 9th (12) (14/1 -17%) Ziggy's Dream	14 14/1(-17%)	(12) Ziggy's Dream 14/1, Useful filly. Course winner. Latest win at Milan in May. 50/1, good ½-length third of 9 to Raqiya in Oak Tree Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 46 days ago. Others more persuasive. Close third in Group 3 at Goodwood last time and she's in with a chance.

Recent Listed winner in Germany; tougher test of credentials today but she was impressive.

Great Generation was put in her place at the top level at Deauville on her latest outing, but she is a previous Group 3 winner who has to be taken seriously against this level of opposition. However, it may pay to side with FAIR ANGELLICA, who is on the rise after securing victory at Listed level in France last time and that was a career-best effort. Richard Hughes' three-year-old can continue her upward curve to take her tally to six wins from eight starts. Queen Of Mougins isn't out of it either.

FAIR ANGELLICA upped her game to land a listed contest in Deauville last time and is well worth a chance to follow up at the possible expense of Queen of Mougins. Elim is another to consider in an open-looking event.

The Group 1 Prix Maurice de Gheest proved too much for GREAT GENERATION last time but she looked good in Group 3 races previously.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (1/1 +100%) Shielas Well	1 1/1(+100%)	(4) Shielas Well 1/1, Career best when winning 8-runner nursery (5/4) at Newcastle (8f) 5 days ago, suited by the step up to 1m. Can defy a penalty. There was promise before she got off the mark with a convincing success at Newcastle.
2	2 2nd (2) (22/1 -57%) Sybaris Jewel	22 22/1(-57%)	(2) Sybaris Jewel 22/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 6 in nursery (20/1) at Newcastle (6f) 44 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Hasn't gone on from her debut third at Beverley (5f, good/soft) in May and she's now 0-6.
3	3 3rd (3) (3/1 +33%) Law Degree	3 3/1(+33%)	(3) Law Degree 3/1, Winner at Beverley in July. Creditable sixth of 12 in nursery (11/2) at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Will remain vulnerable to unexposed types. Chance on form over shorter but underwhelming the last twice over 1m.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 -78%) Aye Up Lass	4 4/1(-78%)	(1) Aye Up Lass 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1 and blinkered for 1st time, excellent second of 8 in nursery at this C&D (good) 19 days ago. Must be respected. Improved for 1m/blinkers when going close here 19 days ago; up just 3lb.
5th	5 5th (5) (9/1 +36%) Sun Petal	9 9/1(+36%)	(5) Sun Petal 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, eleventh of 14 in nursery at Kempton (8f) 34 days ago. Very moderate form and especially so in her two handicaps (tried hooded), at 6f and 1m.

SHIELAS WELL won with plenty in hand at Newcastle on Tuesday and with the return to turf unlikely to pose any issues, Grant Tuer's filly looks well placed to go in again under a penalty. The form of Aye Up Lass' recent C&D second looks fairly solid and she ought to put up most resistance, with Law Degree perhaps the one for third.

SHIELAS WELL was very much suited by the extra 1f when building on previous promise to open her account in tidy fashion at Newcastle on Tuesday and looks up to defying a penalty. Aye Up Lass responded well to first-time headgear when going close over C&D last time and is the obvious threat.

This looks a good opportunity for SHIELAS WELL to follow up her recent Newcastle win which was thoroughly decisive.

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (2/1 -14%) Bradsell	2 2/1(-14%)	(2) Bradsell 2/1, Second 5f Group 1 success if his career when seeing off Believing by ¾ length in the Nunthorpe at York (5f, good to firm) 23 days ago. The one to beat if in the same form. Accounted for Believing in the Nunthorpe at York last month; clearly the one to beat here.
2	13 2nd (13) (7/2 -17%) Believing	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(13) Believing 7/2, Has recorded good in-frame efforts in Group 1s either side of her C&D Group 2 win in July. Kept on well to finish ¾-length second of 12 to Bradsell in Nunthorpe at York last time. Another bold show likely. Narrow defeats in a Goodwood Group 2 and to Bradsell in the Nunthorpe; should go close.
3	14 3rd (14) (28/1 -56%) Makarova	28 28/1(-56%)	(14) Makarova 28/1, Smart mare. Latest win at Sandown in July. Below form 5 lengths seventh of 12 to Bradsell in Nunthorpe Stakes (25/1) at York (5f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Well held by Bradsell and Believing in the Nunthorpe and unlikely to turn those tables.
4	6 4th (6) (12/1 +33%) Kerdos	12 12/1(+33%)	(6) Kerdos 12/1, Much improved when proving ½ length too strong for Live In The Dream in the Group 2 Temple at Haydock (5f, good to soft) in May. Respectable 2 lengths fifth of 10 to Big Evs in King George Stakes at Goodwood (5f, firm) last time. Respectable runs in big sprints at Ascot and Goodwood since Haydock win; each-way chance.
5th	8 5th (8) (22/1 -38%) Washington Heights	22 22/1(-38%)	(8) Washington Heights 22/1, Strong-travelling sort who made all in the Abernant on 6f Newmarket reappearance (from Mill Stream). Good fourth to that rival in the Duke of York (6f again) next time but he was 4 lengths behind Bradsell when sixth in the Nunthorpe back at York last month. Cheekpieces on first time. More exposed in Group 1 company last twice and others more likely; tried in cheekpieces.
6th	3 6th (3) (66/1 +0%) Desperate Hero	66 66/1(+0%)	(3) Desperate Hero 66/1, Better than ever this year, winning 5f handicaps at Goodwood (heavy) and Hamilton (good to firm) at the start of the summer. Good third in Sandown Group 3 in July since but found the King George Stakes at Goodwood all too much. Found things a bit beyond him in a Group 2 at Goodwood; others much more likely.
7th	9 7th (9) (7/1 +42%) Bucanero Fuerte	7 7/1(+42%)	(9) Bucanero Fuerte 7/1, Good record here last year, notably winning the Group 1 Phoenix. Successful in 6f Naas Group 3 on return in May. Not seen again until sixth of 16 in Sprint Cup at Haydock last weekend, shaping as if he'd be better for that first outing in 4 months. Respected. Ran okay at Haydock; could do better here but the drop back to 5f unlikely to suit.
8th	17 8th (17) (25/1 -39%) Beautiful Diamond	25 25/1(-39%)	(17) Beautiful Diamond 25/1, Gained a second 5f listed success at Ayr when dead heating with Azure Blue in June. Creditable 1¾ lengths second of 9 to Believing in Group 2 Sapphire over C&D (good to firm) 57 days ago. Kept fresh for this since. Chased home Believing in the Group 2 Sapphire Stakes here; more needed but progressing.
9th	1 9th (1) (50/1 +24%) Big Gossey	50 50/1(+24%)	(1) Big Gossey 50/1, Six-time course winner, the latest in a 6f handicap in July. Give his usual good account here when fifth in 1m handicap last time but surely biting off more than he can chew at this level. Brilliant record here but but will need plenty of these to underperform to have a chance.
10th	18 10th (18) (50/1 0%) She's Quality	50 50/1(0%)	(18) She's Quality 50/1, Has progressed into a smart filly this year, including comfortable 5f Tipperary listed success in first-time blinkers (retained) a fortnight ago. This demands more. Impressive Tipperary winner could end up being the most potent of the home challengers.
11th	12 11th (12) (200/1 -100%) Ano Syra	200 200/1(-100%)	(12) Ano Syra 200/1, Useful mare with 2 C&D wins to her name but she's not up to this company. Unable to cope with the early pace in a Tipperary Listed two weeks ago; similar story here.
12th	10 12th (10) (25/1 -14%) Givemethebeatboys	25 25/1(-14%)	(10) Givemethebeatboys 25/1, Smart colt who bagged a 6f Group 3 here last month but he struggled in the Sprint Cup at Haydock last weekend. Well beaten in two forays into Group 1 company and does not look the likeliest winner here.
13th	4 13th (4) (100/1 -100%) Go Athletico	100 100/1(-100%)	(4) Go Athletico 100/1, Smart gelding. Course winner. Below form when 7½ lengths seventh of 11 to Ponntos in 5f Longchamp Group 3 in May. Freshened up since. Others are preferred. Absent since May; has a bit to find and unlikely to get enough rain to bring him into it.
14th	15 14th (15) (12/1 +70%) Matilda Picotte	12 12/1(+70%)	(15) Matilda Picotte 12/1, Won Group races over 7f this time last year but has yet to find peak form in 2024, finishing length second of 8 Group 3 in Fairy Bridge at Tipperary (7.5f, good) 14 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Others are preferred. Well worth a try at this trip with similar tactics to Tipperary; interesting runner.
15th	11 15th (11) (8/1 +71%) Jasour	8 8/1(+71%)	(11) Jasour 8/1, Won 6f Ascot listed event on return. Ran creditably considered how hard he pulled when third in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot and sixth in the July Cup at Newmarket on his next 2 starts. Not to seen to best effect in last Saturday's Sprint Cup at Haydock. The drop back to 5f could suit. Held in Group 1s last twice and others look more likely, but has a chance at his best.
16th	16 16th (16) (28/1 +30%) Vadream	28 28/1(+30%)	(16) Vadream 28/1, Smart mare who bounced back to her best when 1½ lengths fourth of 16 to Montassib in Sprint Cup (50/1) at Haydock (6f, good) 8 days ago, running on. Close fourth in last week's Sprint Cup; could find this stiff five to his liking;respected.
17th	7 17th (7) (22/1 -38%) Moss Tucker	22 22/1(-38%)	(7) Moss Tucker 22/1, Won this race last year. Reappeared with a 5f Naas listed win in April. Not at best over 6f twice since, including Haydock Sprint Cup, but 5f is his optimum trip. Rain a help last year; others might just prove quicker than him on this good ground.
18th	5 18th (5) (125/1 -279%) Go Bears Go	125 125/1(-279%)	(5) Go Bears Go 125/1, Won a 6f Group here in summer 2022. Found life tough in the US for Wesley Ward last year. Also below form in French Group 3 on first run back with David Loughnane 3 weeks ago but he's entitled to come on for the outing. Had a spell in America; hard to know what he is capable of now and probably best watched.

BRADSELL has underperformed in two course runs but is top class when conditions are in his favour. Winner of the 2022 Coventry Stakes, he disappointed in the Phoenix Stakes here as a juvenile but has since found his niche running over this distance. He won the King's Stand as a three-year-old and, while he disappointed in this race last year, softening ground blunted his speed that day and he should take all of the beating if replicating his Nunthorpe Stakes performance. Believing finished second in the Nunthorpe and should again run well, while last year's winner Moss Tucker might need a bit of cut underfoot.

BRADSELL impressed when seeing off Believing in the Nunthorpe at York last month and is taken to confirm his superiority over George Boughey's consistent filly, who returns to the scene of her Group 2 success in July. Bucanero Fuerte could be spot on for this after his run in the Haydock Sprint Cup last weekend and is next on the list.

It may pay to side with BELIEVING, a Group 2 winner here in July and one that might be improving at a faster rate than Bradsell

Latest win at Windsor in August. 15/2, good second of 8 in handicap at Newbury (12f, soft) 10 days ago, clear of rest. Has good chance on form. In career-best form this summer (two wins); ought to give this a good shot from the front.
10th	7 10th (7) (9/1 -13%) Spitfire Bridge	9 9/1(-13%)	(7) Spitfire Bridge 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Good fourth of 11 in novice hurdle (17/2) at Worcester (16f, good) 14 days ago.

AL SAYAH notched up back-to-back successes over timber in May before recording a commanding win over 2m1f here on his Flat return the following month. The excellent Sean D Bowen takes 3lb off her back to soften the blow of a 9lb rise and she has scope for further progress in this sphere, so could be up to the task. Dynamiste got the better of Spitfire Bridge (second) when the pair met over 1m5f here last month and she's taken to confirm her superiority over that rival, while others to note include Grey Owl and Uther Pendragon.

BOY GEORGE had his winning run ended at Newbury 10 days ago but the way he pulled clear of the third suggests he can win off this mark. Al Sayah transferred her improvement over hurdles to the Flat when bolting up here in June so is an obvious threat, with the likeable Grey Owl another to consider having got off the mark at Salisbury last time.

Dual hurdle winner AL SAYAH (nap) returned to the Flat with a wide-margin course win in June and can collect this quite valuable prize.

2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 +67%) Terries Royale	3 3/1(+67%)	(1) Terries Royale 3/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Ascot (1m, good to soft) 9 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Merits consideration under Megan Nicholls. Lightly raced 4yo who got off the mark at Ascot last Friday and could have more to offer.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/1 +8%) Finn Russell	11 11/1(+8%)	(3) Finn Russell 11/1, Back to winning ways over 9f at Carlisle in August. 5/1, good second of 7 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) 3 days ago.

4	12 4th (12) (18/1 -29%) Finn Ironside	18 18/1(-29%)	(12) Finn Ironside 18/1, Winner at York (7f) in July. 9/4, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 16 days ago, faring best of those ridden prominently. One of 2 solid contenders from the Craig Lidster stable. Brings a mark of 65 to this 0-70 but he's progressive and could make another bold bid.
5th	15 5th (15) (25/1 -178%) Tactical Control	25 25/1(-178%)	(15) Tactical Control 25/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Salisbury (1m, good to firm, 12/1) 16 days ago, well positioned. Respected for last year's winning yard. 3yo; off mark at 11th attempt at Salisbury last time; needs to build on that latest form.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 +22%) English Spirit	14 14/1(+22%)	(2) English Spirit 14/1, Fair performer who scored twice on AW over the winter. 10/1, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, good) 20 days ago. Running well but he'd be a few pounds better off if this was a handicap.
7th	10 7th (10) (5/1 +58%) Beale Street	5 5/1(+58%)	(10) Beale Street 5/1, Fair maiden. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (9f, soft, 5/2) 17 days ago. Less exposed than most of these and one of the more likely types. Lightly raced 3yo; third over 7f/1m1f at Carlisle the last twice; this trip could be ideal.
8th	16 8th (16) (16/1 -113%) Ten Commitments	16 16/1(-113%)	(16) Ten Commitments 16/1, Winner at Leicester (7f) in June. 9/4, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Brighton (1m, good) 14 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race.

Likely to give a good account. Won at Southwell (7f, AW) two starts ago; open to further improvement but it's necessary.
11th	13 11th (13) (9/1 +36%) Secret Beach	9 9/1(+36%)	(13) Secret Beach 9/1, Runner-up twice in 1½m handicaps this summer, pulling well clear with a progressive type at Newmarket on the second occasion. Below-par sixth over 1¼m on AW at Newcastle since. Remains to be seen how he copes with the drop back to 1m but this trainer/jockey won the race last year. Jockey and trainer combined to win this last year with a 3yo who was dropping back in trip.
12th	8 12th (8) (40/1 -60%) Strongbowe	40 40/1(-60%)	(8) Strongbowe 40/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 10/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (7.8f, good to soft) 4 days ago, hampered. Good second at Thirsk last month and soft ground may not have suited the next twice.

More realistic chance at this level but may not see the best of him in this sphere until he tackles longer trips. 2m hurdle winner; may prefer further than this on the Flat, but has Gerald Mosse up.
14th	14 14th (14) (22/1 -10%) Slaney Swagger	22 22/1(-10%)	(14) Slaney Swagger 22/1, Fairly useful form in Ireland but below that level when third in 2 maidens since coming to Britain, looking a bit of an awkward ride (hung right). A first-time visor replaces cheekpieces. Strong claims on pick of Irish form but needs to get back on track in a first-time visor.

Having opened his account on the straight mile at Ascot nine days ago, another bold bid is forecast from TERRIES ROYALE. On that evidence, Mick Appleby's gelding shades the verdict over Finn Russell. The Caravaggio gelding was far from disgraced when runner-up at Epsom on Thursday and he's likely to be involved if over those exertions. Tactical Control and Finn Ironside are also noted in a race where few can be ruled out.

TERRIES ROYALE is a lightly-raced 4-y-o with a largely progressive profile who might be able to follow up last week's Ascot success. There are many possible dangers, headed by Tactical Control for last year's winning stable and Craig Lidster pair Finn Ironside and Crown's Lady.

Ben Brookhouse and Tom Scudamore won this last year with a 3yo who was dropping back in trip and can repeat the feat with SECRET BEACH.

1	2 1st (2) (7/4 +22%) Dain Ma Nut In	1.75 7/4(+22%)	(2) Dain Ma Nut In 7/4, Took a step forward when making all in 5-runner maiden at this C&D (good, 13/8) 19 days ago, forging clear. Leading contender as he makes only his second start in a handicap. Won a weak maiden last time but was previously well held off this very mark.
2	6 2nd (6) (85/40 +47%) Gone Rogue	2.125 85/40(+47%)	(6) Gone Rogue 85/40, Course winner. Without a victory so far this season, but ran well from his easing mark when second of 11 in handicap at this course (9f, good, 3/1) 18 days ago. Merits consideration. Can front-run but accepted a lead when runner-up over the 1m1f here 18 days ago.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/3 +0%) Jesmond Dawn	3.333333 10/3(+0%)	(4) Jesmond Dawn 10/3, Found some improvement when doubling his tally in 8-runner handicap at Ripon (8f, good to firm, 13/2) 19 days ago, albeit getting first run. Can make his presence felt. 6lb rise for 2l win at Ripon sees him up to a career-high mark; still a player.
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 +40%) Savrola	12 12/1(+40%)	(1) Savrola 12/1, Hasn't gone on from an encouraging seasonal/stable debut, last of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm, 16/1) 59 days ago. Back down in grade but others more persuasive at present. Not beaten a rival on his last two outings at Haydock and Hamilton.
5th	3 5th (3) (22/1 -300%) Jackhammer	22 22/1(-300%)	(3) Jackhammer 22/1, With blinkers reapplied, produced best effort of the season when second of 10 in handicap (66/1) at this course (7.1f, good) 18 days ago. Task is now to build on his latest run. Had a near miss here over 7f last time but no good thing to be as good again.
6th	5 6th (5) (25/1 -108%) Trais Fluors	25 25/1(-108%)	(5) Trais Fluors 25/1, Made the frame for the first time in a while when fourth of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Ayr (7.2f, good) 34 days ago. Has been eased further in the weights but others still look stronger. Close fourth at Ayr last time (7f, good) but a 10yo now who struggles with consistency.
7th	7 7th (7) (12/1 -118%) Bulls Aye	12 12/1(-118%)	(7) Bulls Aye 12/1, Course winner. With visor back on, ran better than for a while when second of 9 in handicap (11/) at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago, never nearer. Regular slow starter but he's capable of getting involved. Second at Thirsk last time but an overall strike-rate of 3-42 tempers enthusiasm.

Dain Ma Nut In shed his maiden tag in fine style over track and trip last month and he should go well now stepping back into the handicap ranks. However, JESMOND DAWN looks the way to go. Grant Tuer's three-year-old went in by two lengths in this grade at Ripon on his latest outing and a 6lb rise may underestimate the manner of that success. Gone Rogue is another to consider.

DAIN MA NUT IN opened his account in good style when making all at this C&D last time and he is taken to score again now that he's up and running. He can get the better of Jesmond Dawn, who also arrives on the back of a win, while Gone Rogue is one to note from his current mark.

With Jesmond Dawn now on a career-high mark this could be a suitable opening for GONE ROGUE to win for a third time.

1	6 1st (6) (12/1 +25%) Scorthy Champ	12 12/1(+25%)	(6) Scorthy Champ 12/1, Striking turn of foot when making winning debut at Leopardstown. 17/2, 2 lengths third of 4 to Henri Matisse in Futurity Stakes at this C&D (good) 22 days ago, missing break. Third behind Henry Matisse in the Futurity Stakes, unlikely to reverse the form.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/6 +24%) Henri Matisse	0.833333 5/6(+24%)	(3) Henri Matisse 5/6, Looks a top prospect, winning 3 from 3 runs this year. 5/6, won 4-runner Futurity Stakes at this C&D (good) 22 days ago by length from Hotazhell, driven out and still learning his trade. Difficult to oppose. Unbeaten winner of the 6f Railway Stakes and Futurity Stakes (C&D) sets a high standard.
3	7 3rd (7) (7/1 +42%) Seagulls Eleven	7 7/1(+42%)	(7) Seagulls Eleven 7/1, Confirmed debut promise when winning at Haydock in June and cranked his form up again when 1½ lengths second of 6 to Ancient Truth in Superlative Stakes at Newmarket (7f, good, 5/1) 64 days ago. Second to the unbeaten Ancient Truth in the Group 2 Superlative Stakes, form looks solid.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 +20%) Aomori City	4 4/1(+20%)	(1) Aomori City 4/1, Improved for step up in trip when winning Group 2 7-runner Vintage Stakes at Goodwood (7f, good to firm) 47 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Wolf of Badenoch, driven out. In the right hands to progress again so he commands respect. Looks a likely threat to Henri Matisse following an emphatic Group 2 win at Goodwood.
5th	2 5th (2) (16/1 -45%) Cowardofthecounty	16 16/1(-45%)	(2) Cowardofthecounty 16/1, Winning debut here over 6f in April and useful form when winning 5-runner Prix Francois Boutin at Deauville (7f, good to firm) 35 days ago by 1½ lengths from Houquetot. Limit not yet reached. Excuse for poor Anglesey Stakes run, showed true ability when winning Group 2 at Deauville.
6th	5 6th (5) (40/1 -21%) Rock Of Cashel	40 40/1(-21%)	(5) Rock Of Cashel 40/1, Left debut form well behind when winning at Galway in July. 13/2, 5 lengths last of 4 to Henri Matisse in Futurity Stakes at this C&D (good) 22 days ago and no reason why he'll reverse the form with that rival. Faded to finish last of four behind Henri Matisse in the Futurity, 3l off Scorthy Champ.
7th	4 7th (4) (14/1 -56%) Hill Road	14 14/1(-56%)	(4) Hill Road 14/1, Won a barrier trial in May and looked a really good prospect when winning 11-runner maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good to firm) on debut 38 days ago, forging clear. Can leave bare form behind. Impressed in beating an Aidan O'Brien-trained colt at Leopardstown, big jump in class.
8th	8 8th (8) (66/1 -164%) The Parthenon	66 66/1(-164%)	(8) The Parthenon 66/1, 5½ lengths last of 3 to New Century in listed race (10/11) at Salisbury (8f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Visor on and this a tough race to bounce back in. Stablemate of Henri Matisse, flopped at Salisbury, has a huge amount to prove now.

HENRI MATISSE is still a work in progress but can progress further. Out of a Group 1-winning dam, none of his wins have been flashy performances and while displaying signs of inexperience in both the Railway Stakes and the Futurity, he finished that latest race quite well and is ideally suited by this distance. Aomori City also seemed to benefit from stepping up to this distance when winning at Goodwood in July. He had previously finished third to subsequent Prix Morny winner Whistlejacket at Newmarket, while the form of his recent win was subsequently boosted by the third-placed colt winning at Group 2 level. Hill Road stays well as he impressively won his maiden over a mile, but steps up markedly in class.

HENRI MATISSE looks every inch a Group 1 winner in waiting following a faultless start to his career and with his Futurity Stakes win over C&D comfortably the best form on offer, he's very hard to get away from. Aomori City is second choice, though Hill Road brings considerable potential to the table.

Aidan O'Brien can prevail with the unbeaten Railway Stakes and Futurity Stakes winner HENRI MATISSE. Aomori City is a big danger

1	11 1st (11) (10/1 +60%) Baldomero	10 10/1(+60%)	(11) Baldomero 10/1, Infrequent winner but having edged back down in the weights he wasn't seen to best effect when fourth of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to soft, 15/2) 3 weeks ago, snatched up 1f out. Blinkers now reapplied. Won off 3lb higher at Goodwood in May but subsequent form has been mixed.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 +20%) King's Lynn	6 6/1(+20%)	(7) King's Lynn 6/1, C&D winner. It's been a while since his last success but has been holding his form well this season, fourth of 14 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, good to soft, 17/2) 3 weeks ago. Merits consideration. Versatile two-time course winner who arrives in good heart and may well be in the mix.
3	10 3rd (10) (15/2 +53%) Knebworth	7.5 15/2(+53%)	(10) Knebworth 15/2, With cheekpieces applied, won at this course in March and ran well after 4 months off when second of 15 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm, 12/1) 42 days ago, rallying last ½f. Could be in the mix over this slightly longer trip. Game winner over 6f here in March and runner-up at Haydock last time; this trip could suit.
4	6 4th (6) (10/1 +17%) Spangled Mac	10 10/1(+17%)	(6) Spangled Mac 10/1, Without a victory so far this year but not seen to best effect when tenth of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Ascot (7f, good to soft) 8 days ago, denied clear run approaching final 1f. Has dropped below his last winning mark. Not seen to best effect the last twice and now below last winning mark; not discounted.
5th	3 5th (3) (6/1 +29%) Brewing	6 6/1(+29%)	(3) Brewing 6/1, Boasts an excellent strike rate, making it five wins from 7 career starts when landing 8-runner handicap (85/40) at Kempton (7f) by 1½ lengths from Silver Samurai in January. Off 7 months but he's one to note on turf debut. Makes turf debut after absence, but he's 5-7 and is in top hands; could play leading role.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/2 +21%) Tacarib Bay	5.5 11/2(+21%)	(2) Tacarib Bay 11/2, Has returned to form on his last 2 starts, just failing when second of 7 in handicap at Ascot (6f, good to soft, 7/1) 8 days ago. On a handy mark and he could be ready to take advantage. Has posted near-misses over 6f the last twice and he's respected.
7th	5 7th (5) (11/4 +39%) Baradar	2.75 11/4(+39%)	(5) Baradar 11/4, Winner of this race last year but yet to fire during the current campaign, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Ascot (8f, good, 40/1) 50 days ago. Not written off given his course record, though would ideally want softer ground. Something to prove regarding current form but won this last year and has fine record here.
8th	4 8th (4) (22/1 -38%) Flaming Rib	22 22/1(-38%)	(4) Flaming Rib 22/1, C&D winner. Below his best this season, though fared a bit better when 2 lengths seventh of 10 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, good to firm, 9/1) 15 days ago, hampered final 100 yds. Blinkers now reached for. Took sizeable step back in right direction at Chester but now needs to build on that run.
9th	9 9th (9) (22/1 -57%) Silver Samurai	22 22/1(-57%)	(9) Silver Samurai 22/1, Succesful at this course (7f) in June but not in the same form both starts since, tenth of 11 in handicap at Newbury (7f, good to firm, 16/1) 29 days ago. Others make more appeal. Won over C&D in June; below par the next twice but 2-2 here so well worth a second look.

Orazio didn't appear to see out the rise in distance when last over 7f at Ascot in July, but can go well if bouncing back to the form that saw him finish a close-up third in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot the month before. However, it may be worth taking a punt on BARADAR, who won this last year. George Boughey's inmate is now 4lb below that winning mark and a 50-day break may have freshened him up. The progressive Brewing is also interesting on his turf debut.

TACARIB BAY has only narrowly been denied on his last 2 starts, beaten a nose by a course specialist at Ascot on his latest outing, so he is taken to get back to winning ways this time around. King's Lynn arrives in good heart and can make his presence felt once more, with Knebworth also considered.

Last year's winner BARADAR hasn't been at his best this summer but has an excellent record here and is 4lb lower than 12 months ago.

Enters calculations with a well-run race likely. Habitual slow starter; won't be able to give today's rivals too much of a headstart.
2	9 2nd (9) (20/1 +39%) Delagate This Lord	20 20/1(+39%)	(9) Delagate This Lord 20/1, Six-time C&D winner. Fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm, 16/1) 11 days ago. Dropped to a handy mark and should strip fitter with that run under his belt. Veteran who saves his best for this track; recent fourth needs bettering though.
3	10 3rd (10) (11/2 +45%) Glamorous Express	5.5 11/2(+45%)	(10) Glamorous Express 11/2, Course winner. Creditable third of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm, 6/4) 11 days ago, no extra only late on. Course winner; threatening on turf in recent starts; rider's claim handy; e/w shout again.
4	13 4th (13) (14/1 +0%) My Delilah	14 14/1(+0%)	(13) My Delilah 14/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Fourth of 6 in handicap (2/1) at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and he's well weighted if they help. Generally running well this summer but this is a stronger race than she's accustomed to.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 -118%) Connie's Rose	12 12/1(-118%)	(2) Connie's Rose 12/1, Three wins from 14 runs this year. Tongue strap on for first time, career best when winning 4-runner handicap (11/8) at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 13 days ago, pushed out. Does most of her winning at that track but also very effective here. Having a good summer and a 2lb rise for latest Chepstow win is manageable; considered.
6th	6 6th (6) (9/1 +36%) Beyond Equal	9 9/1(+36%)	(6) Beyond Equal 9/1, C&D winner. Twenty-eight runs since last win in 2021. 9/1, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 9 days ago. Blinkers back on and clearly needs everything to fall right. On long losing run and this looks a competitive event in which to try and end the drought.
7th	4 7th (4) (5/1 +44%) Lipsink	5 5/1(+44%)	(4) Lipsink 5/1, Latest win at Nottingham in June. 17/2, good short-head second of 9 to Treacherous in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 29 days ago. Up 3 lb but can still make his presence felt. New yard have coaxed him back to form; latest C&D 2nd was a fine run; still well treated.
8th	3 8th (3) (9/1 -13%) Sarah's Verse	9 9/1(-13%)	(3) Sarah's Verse 9/1, Three wins from 13 runs this year. Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (11/1) at Sandown (5f, good to firm) 15 days ago, finishing well. Needs a good pace to aim at given habitual slow starts. Good record at Bath and she's been running okay since a Ffos Las win in June; good chance.
9th	7 9th (7) (14/1 -40%) Symbol Of Hope	14 14/1(-40%)	(7) Symbol Of Hope 14/1, Four-time C&D winner. Latest win here in August. 15/2, good second of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm) 11 days ago. No reason why he won't give it another good go. Multiple course winner; ran well when second over 5f here 11 days ago; this is deeper.
10th	11 10th (11) (33/1 -313%) Under Curfew	33 33/1(-313%)	(11) Under Curfew 33/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Salisbury in July. Visored for first time, shaped quite well when third of 9 in handicap (16/1) at Brighton (6f, good to soft) 37 days ago given he was denied a clear run. Two turf wins this summer and ran well last time; this perhaps too competitive though.
11th	15 11th (15) (25/1 +24%) Second Collection	25 25/1(+24%)	(15) Second Collection 25/1, Course winner. Latest win here in June. Last of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 15/2) 29 days ago, already held when hampered. Not easy to make a case for. 5f course win in June; not so good in three runs since; others stronger for the win.

Latest win at Thirsk in July. 11/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 20 days ago, slightly short of room. Thirsk winner in July; not run badly the last twice but looks vulnerable in this field.

Has work to do from 3 lb out of the weights. His C&D second in July came in a much weaker race; opposable from 3lb wrong.
14th	5 14th (5) (25/1 -25%) Crazy Luck	25 25/1(-25%)	(5) Crazy Luck 25/1, 14/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 12 days ago, never nearer. Further 2 lb ease in the weights can only help her cause. 3lb lower than for May's Nottingham win; that's a result of modest efforts since though.
15th	1 15th (1) (7/1 -75%) Treacherous	7 7/1(-75%)	(1) Treacherous 7/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in August. 6/4, creditable second of 5 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, running on. Expected to be bang there from the same mark. C&D win last month was followed by close 2nd at Salisbury; drawn wide & top weight to defy.

With bags of recent winning form to consider, this looks wide open, and, with that in mind, only a tentative vote can go to DELAGATE THIS LORD. The veteran landed this race in comfortable fashion from a 2lb higher mark 12 months ago and while he had struggled earlier in the season, there were more encouraging signs on his most recent effort. There ought to be many of challengers, including the likes of Treacherous (winner) and Lipsink (second) who clashed over C&D last month. Sarah's Verse and Symbol of Hope both like it around here and must enter the reckoning, along with Vaunted, who was slightly unfortunate when third here earlier this month.

Lots of these arrive in good order with the veteran TREACHEROUS taken to come out on top. He's used to running in slightly stronger races than this and had a few of these behind when winning over C&D last month. A well-run race brings Vaunted firmly into the equation, with Silent Flame completing the shortlist.

Sarah's Verse and Lipsink are high on the list but SILENT FLAME hasn't looked back since blinkers were fitted.

Got on top late on when dropped back to 5f here 18 days ago. 6f arguably suits her better but still much respected.

Poorly drawn when eleventh of 16 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good, 11/1) 21 days ago. That run can probably be overlooked and fairly handicapped on this season's best form. This summer's best gives him claims & last time can be excused (bad draw); one to consider.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 -35%) Spring Is Sprung	4.5 9/2(-35%)	(1) Spring Is Sprung 9/2, Pair of 5f wins in June. Creditable second of 11 in a Racing League handicap at Windsor (5f, good to firm, 16/1) 31 days ago. Should give a good account from a handy draw. Having a good summer and likely to make another bold bid under suitable conditions.
6th	8 6th (8) (14/1 +30%) Herakles	14 14/1(+30%)	(8) Herakles 14/1, Latest win at Ripon in June but below that form in his 3 outings since. Not at best since his Ripon win in June; conditions fine but others look stronger.
7th	5 7th (5) (17/2 -21%) Classy Al	8.5 17/2(-21%)	(5) Classy Al 17/2, Tricky customer. Last of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, soft) 23 days ago but he was unlucky not to finish closer when third over C&D prior to that. Unlucky in running over C&D on penultimate start; has the ability to feature.

This front runner was on the backfoot after a slow start at Haydock last time so it may be worth forgiving that. Two C&D wins to her name; made all in the mud at Hamilton last month; below par latest.

Eternal Sunshine is in sparkling form after making it four wins from her last five starts over C&D last time, and she is likely to be on the premises off a 4lb higher mark. However, she could come out second best to SPRING IS SPRUNG, who filled the runner-up spot at Windsor on his latest outing and is only 1lb higher for that effort. Paul Midgley's five-year-old looks well placed to get his head back in front, while Our Absent Friends completes the shortlist.

SPRING IS SPRUNG has had a productive season and can take advantage of a draw near the rail and prove too strong for the thriving Eternal Sunshine, who only just got away with it over 5f here last time and is another 4 lb higher now. Recent Haydock scorer Our Absent Friends completes the shortlist.

Classy Al has the ability to go well at this level but his thriving stablemate ETERNAL SUNSHINE could have his measure today.

Disappointed in Curragh Cup next time but bounced back with a bang when taking Lonsdale Cup at York. Not taken lightly. No match for Giavellotto in the Yorkshire Cup, beaten 9l behind Kyprios at Royal Ascot,.
3	3 3rd (3) (3/1 +0%) Giavellotto	3 3/1(+0%)	(3) Giavellotto 3/1, High-class horse who has looked better than ever this season, winning the Yorkshire Cup (beating Vauban) for the second year running in May before defying a penalty in good style in Group 2 at Newmarket 66 days ago. Must be highly respected. Dual Yorkshire Cup winner, smart winner of the Princess Of Wales's Stakes at Newmarket.
4	8 4th (8) (40/1 -21%) The Euphrates	40 40/1(-21%)	(8) The Euphrates 40/1, Useful but likely to be used as a pacemaker for his stablemate Kyprios. 1m4f Listed winner, stablemate of Kyprios, goes beyond 1m4f for the first time.
5th	7 5th (7) (125/1 -56%) Nastaria	125 125/1(-56%)	(7) Nastaria 125/1, Useful German raider but doesn't look up to this level. Won a Listed event over this trip at Hoppegarten five weeks ago, aiming very high now.
6th	6 6th (6) (80/1 -60%) Waldadler	80 80/1(-60%)	(6) Waldadler 80/1, Useful German raider but doesn't look up to this level. Solid Group-race form in Germany, beat Nastaria over this trip at Hoppegarten in April.

KYPRIOS was beaten in this at a short price last year but has looked back to his brilliant best this term and should prove the class act. The son of Galileo had an injury interrupted campaign last term but has been flawless in four starts this year, winning his second Ascot Gold Cup and most recently running out an impressive victor of the Goodwood Cup. Giavellotto looks the obvious danger and will make sure it's a solid test. He steps back up in trip after a cosy Group 2 success at Newmarket in July. He beat Vauban in fine style in the Yorkshire Cup in May, while Willie Mullins' charge restored his confidence on the Knavesmire last month.

KYPRIOS looked as good as ever when regaining the Ascot Gold Cup and Goodwood Cup this summer and he can do the same here having won this 2 years ago (runner-up last year on belated comeback). Giavellotto has looked high-class this year and rates a serious opponent, with Lonsdale Cup winner Vauban the only other realistic threat.

In regaining the Gold Cup at Ascot, KYPRIOS confirmed his status as an outstanding stayer. His Goodwood win was most impressive

Fair chance there's more to come if the cheekpieces continue to work. Back up 2lb but respected after a game first win from the front over C&D (good to firm).
2	3 2nd (3) (10/1 +29%) Arkendale	10 10/1(+29%)	(3) Arkendale 10/1, 11/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 41 days ago. Down in the weights but doesn't look ready to cash in at present. Patchy record; fair fourth of six last time and all previous turf runs had been on softer.
3	16 3rd (16) (6/1 +40%) Miners Gamble	6 6/1(+40%)	(16) Miners Gamble 6/1, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good, 6/1) 18 days ago, suited by strong pace. Progressing recently and this extra distance won't be an issue. Shortlisted. Back up 4lb but still of serious interest following breakthrough win at Musselburgh (1m1f).

Becoming well treated but need to see more spark. Won at Nottingham in April off 3lb higher but his more recent form is not so encouraging.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/1 +21%) Ala Kaifi	11 11/1(+21%)	(1) Ala Kaifi 11/1, Won at this meeting a year ago and doubled tally in Abu Dhabi in January. Seventh of 8 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 5/1) 29 days ago, though he may well have needed that. Visor left off. Won this race (soft) last year off 7lb lower; needs overall improvement this time round.
6th	10 6th (10) (14/1 +0%) Placeholder	14 14/1(+0%)	(10) Placeholder 14/1, Well prepared to make a successful reappearance at Wolverhampton in July. Hit the frame both starts on handicaps around 1m since and now goes up in distance. Needs improvement on this step up from 1m but the sire gives some hope that it will suit.
7th	6 7th (6) (4/1 +33%) Young Fire	4 4/1(+33%)	(6) Young Fire 4/1, Down in the weights this season and back on track with a brace of wins in a busy campaign, latterly in 17-runner handicap at York (10.2f, soft) 7 days ago, driven out. Just 2 lb higher so he's likely to give it another good go. Just 2lb higher than for York 1m2f win last Sunday and has to be on the shortlist.
8th	5 8th (5) (80/1 -142%) Harlem Nights	80 80/1(-142%)	(5) Harlem Nights 80/1, First run since leaving James Horton when eighth of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Redcar (1m, good to firm) on reappearance, not ideally placed. Didn't build on that switched to the AW but he looks well worth a shot at this trip. Year off before below form both starts for new connections; goes beyond 1m for first time.
9th	14 9th (14) (25/1 -25%) Burglar's Dream	25 25/1(-25%)	(14) Burglar's Dream 25/1, Long-standing maiden who merely plugged on when seventh of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 3 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Pops up with the odd good run but remains a maiden after 14 starts.

Off 125 days and he retains potential now handicapping. Fair form all starts, 2nd when favourite twice this spring; needs extra on handicap debut.
15	15 \|U\| (15) (16/1 +0%) Zenzic	16 16/1(+0%)	(15) Zenzic 16/1, Left his qualifying form well behind when making a winning handicap debut at Yarmouth in August. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 7/1) 31 days ago, missing break and now goes up in distance. Interesting on style of 1m Yarmouth win; perhaps brought out too quickly one week later.
10th	2 10th (2) (11/1 -175%) Bowood	11 11/1(-175%)	(2) Bowood 11/1, In top form for current yard, completing hat-trick in 8-runner handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 8/11) 26 days ago, despite being slowly away. Up in trip and has to command serious respect in his current mood. 3-3 for Ivan Furtado, all under Elle-May Croot over about 1m; scored easily last time.
11th	12 11th (12) (22/1 -175%) Can't Stop Now	22 22/1(-175%)	(12) Can't Stop Now 22/1, Represents in-form yard and easily best effort this season when winning 11-runner handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 36 days ago, soon clear. Up 4 lb and task is to back that up. Did it comfortably under Mohammed Tabti at Ayr (1m2f) on latest start and he's a player.

This can go the way of the unexposed LENNOX, who was making just his fourth career start when narrowly denied at Windsor in May. Given a break since then, Harry Eustace's charge can strike off a mark of 78 on his handicap debut, with Bowood looking best placed to chase him home as he goes in search of a four-timer. Back to winning ways at York last time out, Young Fire is another to consider, along with French Mistress and Liberty Coach.

Plenty to consider but MINERS GAMBLE produced a career-best effort when successful at Musselburgh 3 weeks ago and given his pedigree, this step up in trip could unlock even more. Bowood has made a faultless start for Ivan Furtado so he has to command respect, along the in-form veteran Young Fire.

Bowood impressed over 1m on his last two starts but is not crying out for 1m2f. MINERS GAMBLE gets the vote in a competitive race.

Bounce back called for returned to this shorter trip. Front-runner with three wins this year; last of 12 last month over 7f after 105 days off.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +0%) Wedgewood	4 4/1(+0%)	(4) Wedgewood 4/1, Gained a second success of the year in minor event at this C&D in July. Ran well when second of 8 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm, 12/1) 27 days ago and she can make another bold bid. On long competitive sequence; two peak efforts on fast ground, unraced on softer than good.
3	3 3rd (3) (7/2 +0%) Darkened Edge	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(3) Darkened Edge 7/2, Off the mark at this C&D in August. Quickly bounced back from a lesser effort when second of 6 in handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm, 17/2) 12 days ago, so she merits consideration back at this venue. In the argument in this competitive race judged on two of her last three performances.
4	8 4th (8) (17/2 +66%) Fishermans Cottage	8.5 17/2(+66%)	(8) Fishermans Cottage 17/2, After 12 months off, shaped as if needing the run when 4¾ lengths eighth of 9 to Snow Berry in handicap at this course (5.7f, good to firm, 18/1) 11 days ago. Needs to find improvement, though. Low-level maiden; almost a year off before his eighth to Snow Berry here 11 days ago.
5th	5 5th (5) (16/1 -167%) Turn And Burn	16 16/1(-167%)	(5) Turn And Burn 16/1, Was the outsider of the field (22/1) but made a winning handicap debut at Lingfield (5f, AW) 10 days ago, overcoming a slow start. Task is now to build on his latest effort. Won AW/handicap debut at Lingfield (5f) ten days ago; more to give with practice.
6th	6 6th (6) (12/1 -71%) We're Reunited	12 12/1(-71%)	(6) We're Reunited 12/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last success in 2023 but has returned to form on his last 2 starts, third of 7 in minor event at this course (5.7f, firm, 7/2) 44 days ago. Can give another good account. Bath regular who often makes the running; regular minor honours but no win since June 2022.
7th	1 7th (1) (9/4 -29%) Snow Berry	2.25 9/4(-29%)	(1) Snow Berry 9/4, Has been going through a good spell, making it 3 wins from her last 4 starts when landing 9-runner handicap at this course (5.7f, good to firm, 9/1) 11 days ago. Major player. In form of her life with two wins over Nottingham 5f and another over the extended 5f here.
8th	7 8th (7) (33/1 -65%) Katar	33 33/1(-65%)	(7) Katar 33/1, Remains a maiden after 36 Flat runs. Wasn't discredited when fourth of 7 in minor event at this course (5.7f, firm, 10/1) 44 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Others still preferred. Beaten a head in C&D classified in June but his strike-rate now stands at 0-35.

A highly progressive sort throughout this summer, SNOW BERRY arrives on the back of a comfortable success over slightly further here last time out, and the drop in trip should not inconvenience as she looks to follow up off 4lb higher. Not beaten far at Chepstow last time out, Darkened Edge can give her the most to think about, along with Turn And Burn, who got off the mark with a win over 5f at Lingfield.

SNOW BERRY proved better than ever when successful at this course on her latest outing, so she looks to hold leading claims as she bids for a fourth win of the season. A pair of fellow C&D winners could be the main dangers, with Darkened Edge feared most ahead of Wedgewood.

Most have realistic each-way claims but it might be another race which pans out best for SNOW BERRY. The wild card is Turn And Burn.

LAUDABLE continues to go from strength to strength and, turned out again quickly after a comfortable success at Catterick on Tuesday, the four-year-old looks well capable of landing the four-timer under a 5lb penalty. Denied by the narrowest of margins on each of his last three outings, including over C&D the last twice, Freddy Robinson might be forced to settle for another supporting role. Midnight Lion returns from a break and is also noted.

LAUDABLE is thriving and overcame a slow start to complete the hat-trick last time, so he's fancied to go in again for all that he's up against another in-form sort in Freddy Robinson. Midnight Lion can't be dismissed.

The choice looks to rest between Laudable and FREDDY ROBINSON, with the latter chosen to end his frustrating run of seconds.

SPIRIT D'OR can give trainer Gavin Hernon a big winner here. The Invincible Spirit filly ran well to finish fourth in Listed company at Deauville on her penultimate start and there is an Irish line of form to work with there as the consistent Shamrock Breeze was just denied in that race. The handicapper has given the maiden winner a mark of 93 and she sets the standard. Aidan O'Brien tries cheekpieces on Right And True and he could be a big player after solid placed efforts in maidens the last twice. English raiders have a fine record in this and Karl Burke's Unspoken Love drops in class.

It's significant that SPIRIT D'OR has made the long trip over for this after getting off the mark comfortably at Moulins, so she's worth siding with in the hope that further improvement can be unlocked back up in trip Gloriously Glam is an obvious player and No Such Thing can do better still.

Gavin Hernon's raider SPIRIT D'OR has the merit of having run well in a Listed race, arguably giving her the best credentials

Has been rejuvenated by the drop back to 6f/return of cheekpieces and respected in hat-trick bid. Chasing a hat-trick after wins at Newmarket and Redcar; 2-2 for Alex Jary; solid claims.
3	16 3rd (16) (17/2 +47%) Onemorenomore	8.5 17/2(+47%)	(16) Onemorenomore 17/2, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f, good to firm, 12/1) 29 days ago. 2 lb out of the handicap. Both wins have come at this track (5.5f and 7f); out of the weigths but still has claims.

6th	13 6th (13) (40/1 -60%) Count D'orsay	40 40/1(-60%)	(13) Count D'orsay 40/1, Latest win at Chester in July. 33/1, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (5f, good) 2 days ago. 5f win at Chester in July; ran creditably here yesterday but 0-14 over 6f and best watched.
7th	10 7th (10) (12/1 +0%) Abate	12 12/1(+0%)	(10) Abate 12/1, Creditable third of 18 in handicap (28/1) at York (6f, soft) 7 days ago. Can give a good account. 3rd in this race last year off 4lb higher; good run at York latest; dangerous with repeat.
8th	14 8th (14) (20/1 +0%) Jump The Gun	20 20/1(+0%)	(14) Jump The Gun 20/1, Course winner. 28/1, twelfth of 15 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good) 33 days ago. Blinkers back on. 2nd in this race last year off 7lb higher; not hit top gear in 2024 but revival possible.

10th	15 10th (15) (18/1 -64%) Dicko The Legend	18 18/1(-64%)	(15) Dicko The Legend 18/1, Latest win at York in July. 10/3, fifth of 6 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Back up in trip. Beat 20 rivals at York on most recent 6f start; still feasibly weighted on that form.
11th	2 11th (2) (15/2 -7%) Havana Pusey	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(2) Havana Pusey 15/2, Latest win at Windsor in June. 13/2, good second of 9 in handicap at Windsor (6f, soft) 22 days ago, just failing. Player. Career best when second at Windsor three weeks ago; still relatively low mileage.
12th	3 12th (3) (25/1 -108%) International Girl	25 25/1(-108%)	(3) International Girl 25/1, Latest win at Ripon in June. Below form tenth of 17 in handicap (25/1) at York (7f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Back down in class. Ended losing run at Ripon in June (6f, good); held in stronger company on last three runs.
13th	5 13th (5) (12/1 +25%) Raatea	12 12/1(+25%)	(5) Raatea 12/1, 6/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, soft) 22 days ago, slowly away. Ran well at this meeting in each of the last 3 years; quiet in 2024 but revival possible.
14th	7 14th (7) (33/1 -32%) Myconian	33 33/1(-32%)	(7) Myconian 33/1, Has struggled for consistency this season, seventh of 10 in handicap at Newbury (5.2f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Change of headgear. Awkward leaving stalls last time but had run well at Newmarket beforehand; 6f the query.

Not beaten far in the Portland here on a couple of occasions, MAKANAH is the class act in this line-up and he seems to have found his old spark under jockey Tom Kiely-Marshall of late with a success at Redcar followed by a runner-up effort at Thirsk. The hat-trick-seeking Archduke Ferdinand is likely to be thereabouts, while Havana Pusey is likely to build on a narrow defeat at Windsor last month. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Dickieburd, Imperial Guard and Justcallmepete.

ARAMRAM ran well when third under this rider at Goodwood last time, travelling smoothly for a long way after the missing break, and gets the vote up against mostly exposed rivals. Dickieburd was a good second off this mark at York last week so rates a threat along with Havana Pusey, who only just failed at Windsor 3 weeks ago.

Class-droppers Imperial Guard and ROCK OPERA appeal most. The selection has had excuses since his C&D win in June.

1	7 1st (7) (9/1 -13%) Racing Demon	9 9/1(-13%)	(7) Racing Demon 9/1, Unreliable sort. C&D winner. Latest win here in May. 14/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (8.1f, good) 20 days ago. Each-way claims. C&D winner in May; on fairly tough mark but returns here after a good effort last month.

3	10 3rd (10) (7/2 +71%) Ciotog	3.5 7/2(+71%)	(10) Ciotog 7/2, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Sixth of 7 in handicap (9/2) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive. Won this in 2023; below form last time; big player if judged on C&D second two runs ago.
4	4 4th (4) (13/2 -86%) Fihrayn	6.5 13/2(-86%)	(4) Fihrayn 13/2, Posted best effort yet, back from 10 weeks off, when close second of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 13/2) 11 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and is one for shortlist. 0-7 but got career back on track with good AW second last week; back up from 7f today.
5th	11 5th (11) (16/1 -60%) Saffredi	16 16/1(-60%)	(11) Saffredi 16/1, Below form ninth of 16 in handicap at Tipperary (7.4f, good to firm, 10/1) 37 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Gavin Patrick Cromwell. Market check advised on yard debut. Placed three times in Ireland this summer and has possibilities on this stable debut.
6th	3 6th (3) (7/2 +61%) Spirit Of The Bay	3.5 7/2(+61%)	(3) Spirit Of The Bay 7/2, 28/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (11.6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Chance on old form. Ran well for long way over 11.6f here recently and may benefit from this drop back in trip.
7th	1 7th (1) (11/1 -144%) Macs Dilemma	11 11/1(-144%)	(1) Macs Dilemma 11/1, Course winner who matched season's best form when creditable third of 7 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Merits consideration. Placed twice over 7f in recent weeks but yet fully to convince stamina-wise over 1m.
8th	5 8th (5) (15/2 -50%) Vellner	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(5) Vellner 15/2, Back to winning ways at Ayr (8f) in May and largely acquitted himself well in defeat since, latest when good second of 6 in handicap at Ffos Las (10f, heavy, 7/1) 17 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Has mixed record for this stable but current mark is workable if he's in the right mood.
9th	9 9th (9) (200/1 -100%) Hadley Park	200 200/1(-100%)	(9) Hadley Park 200/1, 200/1 and visored for 1st time, last of 10 in handicap at this course (14f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Hard to fancy. Didn't take to hurdling, and finished last on all three starts since returned to the Flat.
10th	2 10th (2) (8/1 -60%) Beau Gars	8 8/1(-60%)	(2) Beau Gars 8/1, Career best when winning 5-runner handicap (10/1) at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy) 17 days ago, always holding on. 3 lb rise fair and should go well again. Back from break with front-running win on heavy ground last month; still unexposed on turf.

Now that the penny has dropped for BEAU GARS after a relatively comfortable success at Ffos Las last month, the son of Brazen Beau is likely to have plenty more improvement to come. He can defy a 3lb rise to the double at the main expense of Kempton third Fihrayn and Macs Dilemma, who has been running with credit of late without getting his head in front. Racing Demon and Vellner are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

FIHRAYN is still relatively low mileage and found improvement when runner-up at Kempton earlier this month. This step back up in trip should suit and he gets the nod in the finale. Macs Dilemna and Vellner are feared most.

The answer might be FIHRAYN, who recently returned to form with a good 7f AW run and may still have untapped potential over 1m.

Clear second at Carlisle and the winner has impressed since; big shout off 2lb higher.

4	5 4th (5) (7/1 +72%) Angel Of The Bay	7 7/1(+72%)	(5) Angel Of The Bay 7/1, 25/1, last of 10 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 34 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Maiden; ran well in May but underwhelming efforts in four subsequent starts.

8th	3 8th (3) (7/2 +50%) Sound Of Iona	3.5 7/2(+50%)	(3) Sound Of Iona 7/2, Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap (10/3) at this course (5f, good) 1 day ago. Carries penalty. Significantly back up in trip. A winner here last night over 5f but she's 0-7 when sent beyond 6f.

Returning from a 349-day absence and making his first start for new connections, SPACE NINJA looked like a winner waiting to happen when only worn down late in the piece at Carlisle last month. With normal improvement expected on the back of that, the son of Kodiac can see off recent Catterick third Elettaria, and Carlisle winner Inanna, who is a big player if handling the step back up in trip.

Preference is for SPACE NINJA, who is still low mileage and made an encouraging start for his new yard at Carlisle last month. Inanna and Believe Me Not should also go well.

Quite competitive. SPACE NINJA (nap) looks to have as good a chance as any having come clear with a subsequent winner at Carlisle.

Ryan Moore gave WIGMORE STREET a fantastic ride to win here 15 days ago and there looks scope for further improvement from the American Pharoah gelding. He came with a late charge to gain a head victory in the Irish Cambridgeshire and going another couple of furlongs now should suit. Gerry Keane had a memorable day when taking this last year with Crystal Black and Genuine Article could run a big race again for the same connections. He was a touch unlucky when fourth at Galway recently and is tried in blinkers now. Former Group 1 winner Helvic Dream has been eased a few pounds and is interesting back in handicap company.

WIGMORE STREET put it all together when landing a big-field handicap here last time and the longer trip promises to suit, so he's worth a chance to follow up at the possible expense of Take Heart, who landed a big race at Goodwood last time. This Songisforyou is another player.

This longer trip may help to bring out the best in THIS SONGISFORYOU, third in the valuable Mile Handicap at the Galway festival

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
