13:30 Navan Maiden 6f - 19 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	2 1st (2) (13/8 +41%) Bodhi Bear	1.625 13/8(+41%)	(2) Bodhi Bear 13/8, Starspangledbanner colt who matched debut form when second of 16 in minor event at Naas (7f, good to soft, 3/1) 10 days ago. Looks well up to playing his part with the drop in trip expected to hold no fears. Sets a good standard here based on two Naas runs, second in a valuable event ten days ago.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/4 +38%) Mathan	1.25 5/4(+38%)	(4) Mathan 5/4, 215,000 gns yearling, Kodiac colt. Promising start when fourth of 18 in maiden (5/1) at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) on debut 25 days ago. Should have more to offer. Promising debut when fourth of 18 over 6f at the Curragh last month, likely to improveb.
3	17 3rd (17) (100/1 -100%) Aboveheronlysky	100 100/1(-100%)	(17) Aboveheronlysky 100/1, Foaled May 7. €3,500 yearling, Far Above filly. Dam 5f winner (including at 2 yrs) out of winning sister to smart sprinter Taajub. Dam won four times over 5f in Britain; plenty of speed in the pedigree,.
4	15 4th (15) (80/1 -142%) Wait For It	80 80/1(-142%)	(15) Wait For It 80/1, Foaled February 11. €20,000 yearling, €42,000 2-y-o, Bated Breath filly. Dam 1¼m/11f winner in Germany. First foal out of a German Listed-placed 1m2f/1m3f winner, may find this trip inadequate.
5th	14 5th (14) (13/2 +24%) Asdana	6.5 13/2(+24%)	(14) Asdana 13/2, Thrice-raced filly. 16/1, fourth of 21 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Visor on 1st time and claims of making the frame again. Good chance of reaching the money following last week's improved display at the Curragh.
6th	12 6th (12) (66/1 -32%) Lyle The Crocodile	66 66/1(-32%)	(12) Lyle The Crocodile 66/1, Twice-raced gelding. 80/1, ninth of 21 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 6 days ago, making steady headway from 2f out and not knocked about. Another likely to be better suited to handicaps in due course. Last week's Curragh run was a step in the right direction, will need more experience.
7th	5 7th (5) (25/1 +11%) Tam Lin	25 25/1(+11%)	(5) Tam Lin 25/1, Twice-raced gelding. 150/1, left debut form well behind when third of 11 in maiden at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Still, he'll likely need to pull out more if he's to open his account here. Showed notable improvement from Curragh debut when third at Naas though beaten 8l.
8th	7 8th (7) (16/1 -45%) Just Jump	16 16/1(-45%)	(7) Just Jump 16/1, Kodi Bear gelding. Friendless in the betting but offered something to work on when seventh of 19 in maiden at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 14 days ago, running green and not knocked about. Open to improvement. Slowly away and showed inexperience at this venue on debut, stayed on quite promisingly.
9th	13 9th (13) (22/1 -10%) Tara Na Ri	22 22/1(-10%)	(13) Tara Na Ri 22/1, Foaled January 28. €8,000 yearling, River Boyne colt. Dam, Norwegian 2-y-o 5f winner who stayed 1½m (placed in Svenskt/Norsk Oaks), half-sister to smart 6f winner Gathering Power. First foal. dam won in Norway, half-sister to Listed-placed 6f winner Gathering Power.
10th	16 10th (16) (50/1 -127%) Temps Leve	50 50/1(-127%)	(16) Temps Leve 50/1, Twice-raced filly. Showed more than first time up when sixth of 10 in maiden at Dundalk (7f, 33/1) 26 days ago. Yard look to hold stronger claims with Mathan. Failed to make much impression in two outings last month, stablemate Mathan appeals more.
11th	9 11th (9) (40/1 -150%) Angel Of Promise	40 40/1(-150%)	(9) Angel Of Promise 40/1, Foaled March 25. €60,000 yearling, Dark Angel filly. Dam, 5.5f/6f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to useful 1m-1½m winner Glen Force. Worth a check in the betting for clues on debut. Dam Lethal Promise was a dual Listed sprint winner for Willie McCreery, in good hands.
12th	6 12th (6) (150/1 -127%) Ballymagreehan	150 150/1(-127%)	(6) Ballymagreehan 150/1, Once-raced colt. Sixteenth of 21 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 80/1) on debut 6 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Big price and never in contention on introduction at the Curragh last week.
13th	3 13th (3) (25/1 +11%) Fort Star	25 25/1(+11%)	(3) Fort Star 25/1, Foaled April 29. €32,000 yearling, Starspangledbanner colt. Dam, 5f/5.7f winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 7f Three Sea Captains. First foal, dam a multiple sprint winner, half-sister to winners, speedy pedigree overall.
14th	8 14th (8) (150/1 -127%) Quarry Stone	150 150/1(-127%)	(8) Quarry Stone 150/1, Thrice-raced gelding. Sixth of 10 in maiden (125/1) at this course (5f, good) 32 days ago. Low-grade handicaps promise to be more suitable. Finished last on his first two starts, a little better here last time; unlikely to feature.
15th	11 15th (11) (150/1 -127%) Anchors Away	150 150/1(-127%)	(11) Anchors Away 150/1, 100/1, showed nothing when twentieth of 21 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, good, 100/1) on debut back in May. Absent/gelded subsequently and whilst this should reveal more, he can only be watched. 100-1, never involved at the Curragh in May, gelded since, safe to rule out.
16th	1 16th (1) (150/1 -127%) Toastoftinseltown	150 150/1(-127%)	(1) Toastoftinseltown 150/1, Twice-raced colt. Nineteenth of 21 in maiden (100/1) at the Curragh (6f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Last of 17 at Fairyhouse, in rear at the Curragh, transformation needed with tongue-tie.
17th	10 17th (10) (25/1 -39%) Showspinner	25 25/1(-39%)	(10) Showspinner 25/1, Second of 8 in barrier trial at Leopardstown in August and best not judged too harshly on her tenth of 12 in maiden at Naas (5.9f, good to firm) 34 days ago, unable to get competitive after a tardy start. In good hands and this promises to reveal more. Finished second in a barrier trial, got upset in stalls on debut, may need more experience.
18th	18 18th (18) (150/1 -127%) Goddaughter	150 150/1(-127%)	(18) Goddaughter 150/1, Well-beaten both starts in maidens at up to 7f in recent months. Easy enough to look elsewhere. In rear in maidens here and at Dundalk, three-figure odds both times, likely same again.
19th	19 19th (19) (18/1 -112%) Marianne North	18 18/1(-112%)	(19) Marianne North 18/1, Belardo filly who had a difficult draw but left debut form in her wake nevertheless equipped with a tongue tie (left off here) when third of 15 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft) back in May, running on late. Absent since but she could do better again on debut for new stable. Promising third at the Curragh in May on her second outing, has changed stable.

Joseph O'Brien's MATHAN can progress from an opening fourth at the Curragh. The horse in second came out and won a Naas maiden by almost five lengths to strengthen the form. Bodhi Bear looks threatening on this drop in trip. He built upon a debut third in Naas when filling the runner-up berth in the valuable Irish EBF Auction Series Race Final at the same track. Marianne North has solid form in quality maidens and is interesting on her first start for Harry Rogers. Asdana showed up well for a long way in a massive field at the Curragh before finishing fourth and a first-time visor is tried on her now.

MATHAN fetched plenty as a yearling and shaped well when fourth on debut in a big-field maiden at the Curragh 25 days ago. Open to improvement, he gets the nod to build on that effort at this slightly shorter trip. Bodhi Bear, Just Jump and Marianne North are others fancied to be in the shake up.

This looks relatively straightforward for BODHI BEAR who has strong claims based on his second in a valuable auction race at Naas

13:30 Navan Maiden 6f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:45 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 7f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (4/1 -14%) Misty Sky	4 4/1(-14%)	(7) Misty Sky 4/1, Sent off 6/4 and produced just about her best effort yet when second of 4 in maiden at Hamilton (6f, good) 30 days ago. 7f promises to suit but she looks vulnerable in a novice. Improving steadily; leading player on form, albeit setting a fairly ordinary standard.
2	10 2nd (10) (10/1 -100%) With Zest	10 10/1(-100%)	(10) With Zest 10/1, Foaled January 29. Romanised filly. Dam 8.6f winner. Newcomer for top stable. Filly by her owner's dual G1 scorer Romanised; dam a winner for her connections; respected.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/1 +30%) Fleetwater	7 7/1(+30%)	(1) Fleetwater 7/1, Winner at Windsor in July and progressed again when second under a penalty at that venue. Unable to continue the good work since, bit below form fifth of 18 in novice event at this course (6f, good to soft, 18/1) 18 days ago. Respectable fifth in sales race here last time; one of the main form contenders.
4	12 4th (12) (33/1 -175%) Kathleen Mary	33 33/1(-175%)	(12) Kathleen Mary 33/1, Sent off just 5/1 but looked in need of the experience when sixth of 10 in maiden at Leicester (8.2f, heavy) on debut 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Showed some promise at Leicester; may do better with the experience under her belt.
5th	9 5th (9) (20/1 -67%) Queen Himiko	20 20/1(-67%)	(9) Queen Himiko 20/1, 66/1, eighth of 10 in maiden at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 25 days ago. Showed a bit of promise in C&D maiden (soft) last month; may improve.
6th	4 6th (4) (11/10 +56%) Qarlyga	1.1 11/10(+56%)	(4) Qarlyga 11/10, Foaled March 5. Golden Horde filly. Dam, 1m/9f winner, half-sister to smart 1½m/12.2f winner Au Revoir. One to take very seriously on debut given pedigree and connections. Golden Horde filly; out of a Listed winner for her notable connections; interesting.
7th	3 7th (3) (14/1 +30%) Pershalla	14 14/1(+30%)	(3) Pershalla 14/1, Foaled February 21. 50,000 gns yearling, Persian King filly. Dam 1¼m winner who stayed 1¾m out of smart 1¼m-1½m winner (stayed 1¾m) Polly's Mark. 50,000gns yearling; yard has a modest strike-rate with 2yos in last five seasons.
8th	5 8th (5) (25/1 -56%) Zaraquelle	25 25/1(-56%)	(5) Zaraquelle 25/1, Twice-raced maiden. 40/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at this C&D (good to soft) 25 days ago. Beaten about 8l in both outings, latest over C&D; needs improvement.
9th	8 9th (8) (28/1 +15%) Penn Avenue	28 28/1(+15%)	(8) Penn Avenue 28/1, 20/1, last of 8 in maiden at Southwell (7.1f) on debut 13 days ago. Last of eight in 7f AW maiden, having drifted out to 20-1.
10th	2 10th (2) (12/1 -71%) Live Each Day	12 12/1(-71%)	(2) Live Each Day 12/1, Foaled January 17. Persian King filly. Half-sister to US 2-y-o 5f winner Grand Oak. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner) in Britain/US out of useful 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Lady of Kildare. Lot to like on paper. Persian King filly; newcomer who represents major stable; one for the shortlist.
11th	6 11th (6) (200/1 -150%) Just Dawned On Me	200 200/1(-150%)	(6) Just Dawned On Me 200/1, Eighth of 10 in novice at Kempton (8f, 50/1) on debut 64 days ago, slowly away. Down the field in 1m AW contest two months ago; one for handicaps.
12th	11 12th (11) (300/1 -275%) Baileys Value	300 300/1(-275%)	(11) Baileys Value 300/1, Eleventh of 13 in novice at Chelmsford City (7f, 150/1) 25 days ago. Pair of duck eggs next to her name, both on AW.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

A newcomer landed this contest last year and it may pay to side with another this time in the shape of LIVE EACH DAY. A daughter of multiple Group 1 winner Persian King, the William Haggas-trained youngster should have no issue with the ground and is preferred to the well-bred Qarlyga, who makes her debut for a stable that is always worth watching with fillies at this track. Of those with experience, Hamilton second Misty Sky and top-weight Fleetwater stand out.

Given the form on offer, a newcomer may well be up to the challenge and before the benefit of market clues, QARLYGA, Live Each Day and With Zest are preferred in that order.

The form standard isn't daunting, so interesting newcomers WITH ZEST, Qarlyga and Live Each Day comprise the shortlist.

13:45 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 7f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:55 Fontwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (8/1 +76%) Super Sabre Sam	8 8/1(+76%)	(7) Super Sabre Sam 8/1, In the process of shaping better than he had in his sole bumper when falling at the last (held at time) on Taunton hurdle debut in December. Made little impression in a similar event there in February and needs this run for a handicap mark. In contention for a place at least before last-flight fall on hurdle debut a Taunton.
2	8 2nd (8) (17/2 -6%) Tommy The Tank	8.5 17/2(-6%)	(8) Tommy The Tank 17/2, €10,000 3-y-o, Getaway gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Audacious Plan and fairly useful hurdler Savoy Court. Comfortable winner sole start in points (Apr 2023). Interesting Rules debutant. Won by 7l on point debut in April; 2023; makes rules debut after long layoff.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/4 +50%) French Symphony	1.5 6/4(+50%)	(3) French Symphony 6/4, Winning pointer who shaped with plenty of promise when placed first 2 starts in bumpers. Not quite in same form at Huntingdon on final outing but will be suited by this step up on trip on hurdle debut and reappears with his yard amongst the winners. Placed in good Doncaster bumper in January and a likely contender on hurdling debut.
4	6 4th (6) (18/1 +28%) Summer In Milan	18 18/1(+28%)	(6) Summer In Milan 18/1, Showed ability on his only start in Irish bumpers (for P. M. J. Doyle) having earlier won a point but made a low-key hurdling debut after 6 months off at this course 19 days ago. Showed ability in Ireland last season but struggled on recent stable/hurdle debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +54%) La Higuera	5.5 11/2(+54%)	(5) La Higuera 11/2, €90,000 3-y-o, half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Robin des Foret. Placed on 2 of 3 starts in Irish points and shaped like a stayer when fourth of 8 sole outing in bumpers at Exeter 6 months ago. Longer trip a plus now hurdling. From good jumping family; very respectable fourth in Exeter bumper on rules debut in April.
6th	1 6th (1) (12/1 +14%) Almuhit	12 12/1(+14%)	(1) Almuhit 12/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler at his best but he proved to be a disappointment on debut for new yard here in September and didn't run much better at Worcester only 3 days later. Strong claims if judged on best Irish form but recent efforts have been disappointing.
7th	10 7th (10) (66/1 -313%) Torre Del Oro	66 66/1(-313%)	(10) Torre Del Oro 66/1, Fairly useful on Flat for Andrew Balding (stays 1½m), but ran no sort of race on first outing for this yard after 13 months off Salisbury recently. Makes hurdle debut. Useful on the Flat at his best but struggled on recent stable debut; hurdle debut today.
8th	11 8th (11) (12/1 -9%) Walden	12 12/1(-9%)	(11) Walden 12/1, Just minor promise in a trio of bumpers for Tom Weston. Changed hands for £22,000 in May. Bought for £22,000 after displaying promise in three bumpers in the spring.
9th	13 9th (13) (9/2 +10%) Lagertha	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(13) Lagertha 9/2, Shaped with encouragement both starts in bumpers last season and shouldn't be taken lightly on this switch to hurdling, especially with the step up in trip promising to suit. Ran well in two good bumpers last season and enters calculations on hurdling debut.
10th	9 10th (9) (100/1 -150%) Cher Monsieur	100 100/1(-150%)	(9) Cher Monsieur 100/1, Placed in Irish points but made an unpromising start to his career under Rules in a novice here 19 days ago. Tailed off when 50-1 for recent stable/hurdle debut here (2m1f).
11th	12 11th (12) (200/1 -100%) Bollywollywotsit	200 200/1(-100%)	(12) Bollywollywotsit 200/1, Looks of no account at this stage. A well-beaten outsider on all three hurdling starts and makes no appeal here.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

Having acquitted herself with credit in two competitive bumpers, LAGERTHA may prove the answer in this tricky opener. Katy Price's filly has set a good foundation to build on now tackling timber for the first time in public and she edges the verdict over fellow hurdles debutant La Higuera. The five-year-old boasts a point-to-point background and posted a respectable fourth on his Rules debut in an Exeter bumper in April. French Symphony and Just Lucky Sivola are also noted.

FRENCH SYMPHONY showed plenty in bumpers last season and, with the longer trip bound to suit now going hurdling, he makes plenty of appeal, especially with his yard very much amongst the winners. Lagertha is another who shaped with encouragement in bumpers and shouldn't be taken lightly, with successful-pointer Tommy The Tank completing the shortlist.

Placed behind a subsequent Listed winner in a Doncaster bumper in January, FRENCH SYMPHONY is the most appealing option here.

13:55 Fontwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:00 Navan Handicap 6f - 19 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	12 1st (12) (16/1 +0%) Rosato	16 16/1(+0%)	(12) Rosato 16/1, Winner over C&D in October. Twenty fifth of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft, 22/1) 6 days ago. Had several of these behind her when winning a handicap here two weeks ago; claims.
2	16 2nd (16) (15/2 +25%) Stanhope	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(16) Stanhope 15/2, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Creditable 2½ lengths fifth of 17 to Art of Unity in handicap (33/1) at the Curragh (5f, good to soft) 6 days ago, effort 2f out and keeping on. Arrives here fresher than most for this time of year. Good run behind Art Of Unity at the Curragh last week; 1lb lower here and can go close.
3	20 3rd (20) (8/1 +68%) Step Back In Time	8 8/1(+68%)	(20) Step Back In Time 8/1, Course winner. One win from 22 Flat runs. Fourteenth of 15 in handicap at the Curragh (5f, good to soft, 125/1) 25 days ago, weakening 2f out. This rates a more suitable assignment. Sole win from 22 starts came over 5f here just over a year ago; some decent runs since.
4	13 4th (13) (25/1 -56%) Iva Batt	25 25/1(-56%)	(13) Iva Batt 25/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2022. Fifteenth of 17 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6f, good, 14/1) 30 days ago. Blinkers back on. Bits and pieces of form to her credit this season but not enough to give her a chance here.
5th	19 5th (19) (10/1 -82%) My Girl Sioux	10 10/1(-82%)	(19) My Girl Sioux 10/1, Remains a maiden after 32 Flat runs. 7/1, good ½-length second of 12 to Art of Unity in handicap at Bellewstown (5f, good to soft) 20 days ago, never nearer. Worth a second look. Got within a half-length of Art Of Unity at Bellewstown; can go close off the same mark.
6th	11 6th (11) (16/1 +20%) Master Garvey	16 16/1(+20%)	(11) Master Garvey 16/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. 50/1, possibly needed the run after 6 months off when seventh of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy) 3 days ago. Better showing not ruled out. Ran well over this trip at the Curragh at the start of the season; big run is possible.
7th	1 7th (1) (9/1 -13%) Never Shout Never	9 9/1(-13%)	(1) Never Shout Never 9/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Fifteenth of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 9/2) 18 days ago. Claims if bouncing back. Not the most consistent this year but his best form would bring him very much into the mix.
8th	6 8th (6) (20/1 -25%) Bruce Lightning	20 20/1(-25%)	(6) Bruce Lightning 20/1, Bit below form 4½ lengths ninth of 18 to Rosato in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 50/1) 14 days ago. Booking of McMonagle a plus. Visor on 1st time. New headgear tried here and the rider booking is attractive but hard to fancy overall.
9th	18 9th (18) (25/1 -14%) Coolcalmncollected	25 25/1(-14%)	(18) Coolcalmncollected 25/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 22/1, respectable 5¼ lengths tenth of 18 to Rosato in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 14 days ago, missing break. Others stronger. Glimpses of form this season but not enough to suggest he can win here despite stable form.
10th	10 10th (10) (9/2 +10%) Art Of Unity	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(10) Art Of Unity 9/2, Course winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Won 17-runner handicap (7/1) at the Curragh (5f, good to soft) 6 days ago, always holding on. Needs considering under a penalty. 7lb mandatory handicap for his Curragh win to overcome but that is perfectly possible.
11th	8 11th (8) (20/1 +0%) Sunday Sovereign	20 20/1(+0%)	(8) Sunday Sovereign 20/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 7½ lengths twelfth of 18 to Rosato in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 5/1) 14 days ago. Needs to bounce back from sub-standard efforts at the Curragh and here this month.
12th	7 12th (7) (9/1 +73%) Downforce	9 9/1(+73%)	(7) Downforce 9/1, Veteran who was largely running with credit prior to a disappointing twenty third of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (7f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Another needing to bounce back. Career low mark and no surprise should he be involved; ground might not be soft enough.
13th	14 13th (14) (40/1 -186%) Navorrosse	40 40/1(-186%)	(14) Navorrosse 40/1, C&D winner. 15/2, shaped as if still in good form when seventh of 17 in handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good) in July. Hood on 1st time. Not taken lightly. Hood tried on her first run since July and should go well with the stable in fine form.
14th	2 14th (2) (9/2 +18%) Saturn Seven	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(2) Saturn Seven 9/2, Best effort of present campaign when close second at the Curragh (6f) on penultimate start and shaped bit better than distance beaten suggests when seventh of 17 to Art of Unity in handicap back at that venue (5f) 6 days ago, the gaps not appearing until late. One to consider. Ran okay behind Art Of Unity at the Curragh last week; should be a player off same mark.
15th	17 15th (17) (50/1 -127%) Conversant	50 50/1(-127%)	(17) Conversant 50/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Last of 10 in handicap at Laytown (6f, 22/1) 37 days ago, weakening from 2f out. Falling mark and the stable are in good form; could outrun his likely odds.
16th	3 16th (3) (12/1 +52%) Gustavus Weston	12 12/1(+52%)	(3) Gustavus Weston 12/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. Last of 17 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, good to soft, 18/1) 18 days ago. That was his first start for 4 months and he may well strip fitter but losing run tempers enthusiasm in any case.

MY GIRL SIOUX is a long-standing maiden, but came home well to be beaten half a length into second at Bellewstown which gives her claims. Saturn Seven is more than capable of a big run and James Ryan partnered her when they were just pipped by a head in the Curragh. Never Shout Never disappointed in that Curragh contest, but has a host of placed form this year and is on a dangerous mark for his new trainer. Art Of Unity is giving apprentice Julian Pietropaolo a great start to his career with victories banked in Bellewstown and the Curragh. Another 7lb penalty poses questions, but he is in terrific form. The veteran Stanhope shouldn't be dismissed lightly.

SATURN SEVEN shaped a bit better than the bare result having fallen to her last winning mark when seventh at the Curragh recently, the gaps not appearing until too late. She gets the narrow vote to come out on top ahead of Bellewstown runner-up My Girl Sioux. Never Shout Never and Curragh-scorer Art of Unity complete the shortlist.

Marginal preference is for May course winner STANHOPE, who has a decent chance of turning Curragh tables on Art Of Unity

PRESENTING PETE only found one too good on his chasing debut over 2m5f at Sedgefield at the beginning of the month and the seven-year-old can defy a 2lb rise to go a place better here. Next Left also hit the crossbar on his most recent outing and could prove to be the main danger, ahead of Mahler Moon and Impatient.

NEXT LEFT has plenty of chase experience in the book and should appreciate the drop back in trip here. He can bag his third success in this sphere. Presenting Pete and Roger Pol are feared most.

Useful hurdler ROGER POL is open to improvement on his chase debut and is taken to score for a trainer among the winners.

An intriguing novice with a whole host of illustrious pedigrees to choose from, and it may be the soon-to-retire Sir Michael Stoute who comes out on top with PINHOLE. A brother to Fillies' Mile winner Quadrilateral, who struck on debut herself, the son of Frankel is preferred to Mudbir, who hails from a family that the Gosdens have been very successful with for these owners in recent years. Humam should handle this ground well, being a half-brother to mudlark Vadream, while Due West is another to note.

HIDDEN SECRET was held back by greenness when down the field in a novice won by his smart stablemate Ancient Truth on the July Course this summer. He's been gelded in the meantime and a much better showing can be expected. There are some well-bred newcomers for powerful stables in opposition, the standout being Mudbir, who's from a family connections' have had plenty of success with. Due West is another notable debutant.

All of the newcomers have good credentials, particularly MUDBIR, Due West, Humam and Pinhole.

Easter Icon impressed with how he travelled when making a winning handicap bow in this sphere over C&D in August. Although a 7lb higher mark looks more than workable, testing ground conditions could prove the five-year-old's undoing and preference is for GOLDEN AMBITION. The Ben Pauling-trained gelding found only an unexposed rival too strong over 2m3f here earlier this month and a 6lb rise in the ratings doesn't look insurmountable. Stage Show is also of interest stepping up in distance.

Despite failing to land heavy support here 19 days ago, GOLDEN AMBITION didn't do a lot wrong in pulling a long way clear with a handicap debutant and he can go one place better this time. Easter Icon is second choice, with What's My Line expected to step up on his reappearance run when well behind the selection.

Ben Pauling's GOLDEN AMBITION found one too good when heavily backed here this month but could still be well treated after a 6lb rise.

No Nay Never colt MORALLY SOUND could be worth chancing on his debut. He made a healthy six-figure sum at the sales and is related to a couple of multiple winners in Britain. You would think there is one of these races in the 90-rated Snapdragon and, if he puts his best foot forward, he ought to be heavily involved. Turners Cross was a close second over C&D last month and that was easily his best performance to date. Real Life went off joint favourite for a Curragh maiden in May, but weakened out of contention. He has had a break and could show marked improvement. Lunigiana, Kilmood Susan and Vanilla Baby are far from out of contention.

A good opportunity for SNAPDRAGON to finally get off the mark back in maiden company. Turners Cross took a step forward when runner-up over this C&D last time and is next best ahead of the consistent Lunigiana.

Perhaps a chance can be taken with MISS TRAVERS, who was quite green on debut at Cork and should improve for that and the stiffer track

It is hard to oppose FANCY STUFF, who arrives here on the back of two impressive victories earlier in the year. Even a 10lb rise for the most recent of those wins may not be enough to stop her from making it a hat-trick. Duke Of Luckley is clearly next best following two second-placed finishes at Worcester. The rest all have questions to answer, but Mr Mackay is just about the pick of them.

FANCY STUFF is thriving now and the manner in which she won at Bangor last time suggests she can complete the hat-trick back from a break. Duke of Luckley has jumped much better since switched to positive tactics and rates the main threat.

The in-form FANCY STUFF is an unexposed entrant and she may not have stopped winning just yet.

A 400,000gns son of Frankel out of Prix de l'Opera winner Villa Marina, THE CURSOR is likely to relish this ground and he can strike on debut for connections that are more than adept at readying newcomers. Bred in the purple having cost a huge sum, Arabian Poet may have been a disappointment on debut on the July Course, but better can be expected here and the fact William Buick seemingly prefers him to stablemate Tremorgio is a plus.

THE CURSOR makes plenty of appeal for a stable who won this 12 months ago and he could just be worth chancing on debut before the benefit of market clues. Arabian Poet, who proved too green to make an impact on debut, is surely capable of better, and along with his stablemate Tremorgio, may well emerge as the lead dangers.

Arabian Poet, Mersea Island and St Mawes have possibilities but preference is for interesting newcomer THE CURSOR.

Ground might have been too testing final start and is an interesting chasing debutant on return. Dual point winner; 0-5 over hurdles last season but makes chasing debut from workable mark.
3	4 3rd (4) (85/40 +39%) Hatos	2.125 85/40(+39%)	(4) Hatos 85/40, Off the mark in this sphere at Ffos Las (16f) in February and improved when following up in 4-runner handicap at Wincanton. Best effort since when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Wincanton when last seen in April. First run for yard after leaving Anthony Honeyball. Dual chase winner for Anthony Honeyball last season; on workable mark for stable debut.

Has the size to make a chaser at least. Became rather disappointing over hurdles last season but may fare better over fences.

Career-low mark eases further so not taken lightly. Ran well when fourth at Warwick in May and resumes on a 2lb lower mark; major player.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (28/1 +0%) Onnaroll	28 28/1(+0%)	(9) Onnaroll 28/1, Poor maiden who's easy to oppose from out of the handicap. 0-17 over hurdles; 10lb wrong for this chasing debut; can't be recommended.

Celtic Ned is making his seasonal/chase debut off what looks an attractive mark and it will be interesting to see how the six-year-old fares in the market. Mutual Respect and Hatos are others who could play a part in the finish, but KOENIGSSTERN gets the nod on the basis that he's potentially well treated on his chase bow and could really improve this season for tackling a fence.

MUTUAL RESPECT needed some luck when winning off this mark at Worcester last month but he finished clear with a subsequent winner that day and this is a weaker race. The likeable Call Off The Dogs must be respected, while Koenigsstern is a potential improver now chasing.

After running well to make the frame three consecutive times in the spring, WILL STING may exploit a favourable mark.

Johnny Murtagh's FINAL CURTAIN has posted a couple of fourth places and a third in decent maidens and appears ready to make the breakthrough in first-time cheekpieces. Beatrix Power has been freshened up since running creditably in all four outings to date. She was last seen finishing third in Down Royal and the horses in front of her have endorsed that form. Platino Bianco put in a good shift off the front over further at this track a fortnight ago. She dropped to third at the finish, but the runner-up has since obliged in Dundalk. Many Thanks was just a head behind Platino Bianco in fourth, while Court Phoenix outran his odds in third at the Curragh.

BEATRIX POWER sets the standard on several pieces of form and with the prospect of more to come, she's expected to get off the mark back in maiden company. Final Curtain and White Clover look the main dangers.

Preference is for the twice-raced COURT PHOENIX, who shaped at the Curragh last time as though this trip would suit and should improve

Little Watson has to be of interest having scored on his debut at Stratford in May, but marginal preference is for DEEP PURPLE. Dan Skelton's gelding only found one too good on his Rules bow at Warwick three weeks ago and that recent run may just give him the edge. The Long Walk makes plenty of appeal on pedigree and should not be underestimated on his first outing.

DEEP PURPLE has already won a point and, having found one too good on his first go under Rules, he's fancied to gain compensation at the possible expense of debut winner Little Watson. The Long Walk is one to be interested in if the market speaks in his favour.

The debutant THE LONG WALK represents a team enjoying a good number of first-time-out winners this season and he could be the latest.

ANNIVERSARY lost little in defeat when unable to concede 3lb to a now 101-rated rival at Epsom last month. An opening mark of 91 looks extremely workable and Ralph Beckett's colt is taken to regain the winning thread. Fellow nursery debutant Watching Stars made it third-time lucky when opening his account at Thirsk and first-time cheekpieces could improve him further. The son of Sea The Stars is feared most, ahead of Harmonia.

WATCHING STARS made it third time lucky with a gutsy display at Thirsk last month and, with this step up in distance sure to suit, Charlie Appleby's colt can get the better of Anniversary, who has made a promising start and remains open to improvement now handicapping up in trip. Harmonia and Lazieelunch can fight out minor honours.

Still open to progress, ANNIVERSARY could well defy top weight. Steadily improving Watching Stars is feared most.

Dual novice winner; inconsistent in handicaps since but current mark is workable.

Oscars Moonshine is worth noting on his first start for a new yard having been formerly trained by Paul Nicholls. The latter is represented by INCA DE LAFAYETTE, who will relish the step back up in distance and has solid claims on his victory on soft going at Taunton in January. Whatsupwithyou is another to consider based on his second at Cheltenham in April, while Colours On Canvas landed a double on testing ground at Plumpton last season and will have benefitted from a recent outing on the level.

The betting should prove useful with a number making their seasonal return but INCA DE LAFAYETTE made a successful reappearance 12 months ago and, having ended the campaign in good order, he's narrowly selected to continue the good work. Junkanoo appeals as being on a handy mark and is respected provided the trip doesn't stretch him. Oscars Moonshine completes the shortlist.

Nudged up only 1lb for his commendable second in a big-field Class 2 at Cheltenham in April, WHATUPSWITHYOU gets the nod.

FAIR TAXES may be able to strike back on home soil after a couple of good runs in Britain. Ross O'Sullivan's charge was third on two trips across the water in August, most recently at Chester, and remains on the same mark of 79. Rathbranchurch ran a big race when second to Art Of Unity at the Curragh six days ago and could go well again here for young 10lb claimer Terry Casey. Mickey The Steel has been slipping a few pounds in the ratings and is a C&D winner, so has to come into calculations.

An open-looking handicap with the vote going to MICKEY THE STEEL, who is best under these sort of conditions and has dropped to a very tempting mark. Rathbranchurch and Emerald Harmony are just a couple of potential threats.

Winner of this race two years ago, MICKEY THE STEEL is likely to be close to peak form again following a recent Bellewstown run

ASIAN STAR showed enough to suggest she will be winning over timber sooner rather than later when third at Newton Abbot on her hurdling debut. The runner-up has subsequently boosted the form and Dan Skelton's mare makes plenty of appeal with improvement likely. Irish Chorus has to come into the reckoning on her second at Warwick in May and is preferred to stable companion Rockola. Lady Buttercup landed a bumper at Warwick on her reappearance and can make her presence felt now hurdling.

A slowly-run race counted against ASIAN STAR when she was third at Newton Abbot a month ago but that race has already worked out well and she's well worth another chance. Mary is a pretty solid opponent, while Bellas Bridge demands consideration given her ability in bumpers.

Irish Chorus and Asian Star represent top yards, but BELLAS BRIDGE has shown solid form in bumpers, so could offer a solution.

Placed on last four starts, the most recent on Monday, and should give his running again.

AIDAN ANDABETTIN may not have shown much in recent starts, but he should be suited by stepping back up in trip and returning to a track where he ran well when fourth in July. The booking of champion jockey Oisin Murphy is another plus so he gets the vote ahead of Dion Baker and C&D winner Treacherous, who had been in fine form prior to a disappointing effort when upped in grade at Bath last month.

AIDAN ANDABETTIN are Treacherous are at the opposite end of the age spectrum but look the pair to focus on down in class. Marginal preference is for the Richard Spencer colt with Oisin Murphy taking over.

An unappealing betting event in which TREACHEROUS may be able to capitalise on the favourable terms. Aidan Andabettin is next best.

Handicapper may be in charge now, however. Remains in form but a career-best performance is needed off current mark.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 +22%) Queen's Reign	7 7/1(+22%)	(5) Queen's Reign 7/1, Resumed winning ways at Goodwood (8f) in May and acquitted herself well in defeat on next 2 starts.

3	8 3rd (8) (2/1 +67%) Lunar Eclipse	2 2/1(+67%)	(8) Lunar Eclipse 2/1, €350,000 yearling by Night of Thunder who made a winning start for David Simcock in 7f fillies' novice in the mud at this course last November. Not disgraced in better company here in May and remains with potential, now sent handicapping for new yard. Worth monitoring in market. Twice-raced filly who is open to progress back down in class on debut for new stable.
4	6 4th (6) (4/1 +11%) Zapphire	4 4/1(+11%)	(6) Zapphire 4/1, Gained reward for some agonising defeats when winning at Beverley (5f) in August and back to that sort of form when third of 10 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to soft) 18 days ago, not ideally placed. Likely contender. Northern filly; largely consistent; ran creditably in series final at Redcar last time.

9th	3 9th (3) (13/2 -86%) Surveyor	6.5 13/2(-86%)	(3) Surveyor 13/2, Dual winner this year who wasn't seen to best effect when good third of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 2/1) 18 days ago. Races off same mark here and is one for shortlist. Has form figures of 123 since switched to fillies' handicaps; ran creditably on AW latest.
10th	10 10th (10) (18/1 -64%) Mallavelly	18 18/1(-64%)	(10) Mallavelly 18/1, Still looking for first success but added another creditable run to her CV when good third of 8 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, soft) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Should give another solid account. Consistent sort but she's the only maiden in this field; the headgear needs to help.

Surveyor endured a rough passage when finishing third at Wolverhampton earlier this month and she must enter calculations reverting to turf. However, rain-softened ground may not enable James Fanshawe's filly to show her best and preference is for QUEEN'S REIGN. The daughter of Siyouni wasn't disgraced when seventh in a Listed event at Ascot and a bold bid is forecast back in handicap company. Twirling and Zapphire look best of the remainder.

ZAPPHIRE ran right up to her best when third at Redcar earlier this month and looks the safest option in a tricky-looking handicap. Market support for Lunar Eclipse could prove significant, as she remains open to improvement, whilst Surveyor is also much respected.

One-time Oaks entry LUNAR ECLIPSE (nap) is particularly interesting off an opening mark of 81. Zapphire is second choice.

Big shout up another 7 lb back at this track. 3-3 since switched to fences last month, with two of the wins over C&D; obvious claims.

Shaped quite well again back over hurdles at Stratford (22f, good to soft) just over a fortnight ago and fancied to be in the shake-up returned to fences. Ran big race behind dual subsequent winner Instant Gambler over C&D last month.
3	3 3rd (3) (8/1 +27%) Samourai One	8 8/1(+27%)	(3) Samourai One 8/1, Left his hurdling exploits behind when scoring easily on his Market Rasen chase debut in February. That was decent form (had 3 next-time winners in behind) but pulled up on both subsequent starts that season. Cobden booked and can hit the ground running on reappearance. Puled up twice since 13l win on chasing debut but a contender if all is well after break.
3	5 3rd (5) (13/2 -63%) Caeruleum	6.5 13/2(-63%)	(5) Caeruleum 13/2, Bounced back to form shown on chase debut after a handful of lesser efforts when runner-up at Bangor (24.1f, soft) 6 months ago, edged out close home. 3 lb higher for that near miss but should be bang there again if ready to roll. 0-5 over fences but went close at Bangor at end of last season.

Left opening effort in handicaps well behind when second of 9 at Plumpton in May 2021 but failed to build on that later in the year and not seen since. Has switched yards ahead of his chase debut.

9	9 \|PU\| (9) (150/1 -50%) Fox Wallace	150 150/1(-50%)	(9) Fox Wallace 150/1, Tailed off in a bumper and 3 hurdles last season. Showed nothing hiked up in trip on return/handicap debut (hooded and had a wind op) in July and similar comments applied switched to fences at Hereford recently. Can only be watched from well out of the weights. Pulled up when 40-1 for recent chasing debut and effectively 10lb higher here.

Following a C&D double, INSTANT GAMBLER remains unbeaten over fences having completed a hat-trick with his latest success at Hexham. He won with plenty left in the tank on that occasion and a 7lb rise may not be enough to anchor Alexandra Dunn's progressive chaser. Langley Hundred has a shout off his current rating, though the soft ground is a worry for him, and Caeruleum makes more appeal having ended last season with a creditable second at Bangor.

INSTANT GAMBLER made it 3-3 over the larger obstacles at Hexham earlier this month and with further improvement on the cards, Alexandra Dunn's 8-y-o is fancied to remain unbeaten in this sphere at the expense of old-rival Eurkash, who shaped quite well over timber when fourth at Stratford recently and is of more interest returned to fences. Samourai One has Harry Cobden on board for the first time and he can edge out Caeruleum for third spot.

Instant Gambler has been a revelation over fences but EURKASH was second to him here last month and is 15lb better off now.

Galway Plate winner PINKERTON is a fascinating runner here and has the gears to win at this trip on the Flat. Noel Meade's charge makes his first start since winning the midsummer showpiece at Ballybrit and should have nice ground for his first run under Flat rules. Ballydoyle colt Double Agent sets the standard off his mark of 83, but was a touch disappointing when turned over at a short price in Thurles last time. Sanctity Of Space stayed on past him to finish second to Soul Of Spain that day and may be able to confirm the form.

PINKERTON is a useful jumper and the bar isn't set all that high for this Flat debut, so he's preferred to Double Agent, who may yet have some improvement in him. Sanctity of Space is also likely to be involved.

It looked as if DOUBLE AGENT failed to stay 2m at Thurles. He has a reaIlstic chance of turning the tables on Sanctity Of Space

Bumper scorer WICKED THOUGHTS is a brother to a winner over timber and Paul Nicholls' inmate looks to have strong claims of making a successful start over hurdles. Holokea landed a NH Flat race at Worcester during the summer and will have benefited from a recent outing at Chepstow. He can have a say in proceedings on his hurdling bow and makes more appeal than Rocket Man. Get Cracking has struggled in both starts over hurdles so far.

WICKED THOUGHTS laid a solid platform for hurdling in bumpers last season and this looks an excellent opportunity to get off the perfect start. Holokea proved to be a disappointment at Chepstow recently, so Rocket Man is preferred for forecast purposes.

The Musselburgh bumper winner WICKED THOUGHTS rates as a fascinating new recruit to this discipline for Paul Nicholls.

Can make presence felt. 5f turf win in Aug; similar form when 3rd over C&D latest (Fort Augustus 2nd); wide draw.

Likely to go well again. Met trouble in running when 4th behind two of these rivals over C&D last time; e-w shout.

FORT AUGUSTUS has steadily improved with each start and this looks like an ideal opportunity to break the maiden following a strong runner-up effort over C&D. Behind him on that occasion were Skellig Isle (third) and Sweet Sonata (fourth), who are expected to be thereabouts again. Curzon is another to note on his nursery debut following an encouraging second at Nottingham.

FORT AUGUSTUS made an encouraging start in nurseries when runner-up over C&D 2 weeks ago and looks sure to go well again. Sweet Sonata caught the eye in the same race so is next best ahead of Curzon.

Rogue Bullet still has a bigger run in him but CURZON is of interest on this nursery debut and he gets the nod.

PRESENT TIMES offered a lot of encouragement when second, despite doing plenty wrong, on his debut over C&D last month and with the promise of improvement to come, he looks the one to side with in what should be a very informative affair. Too Don Juan and I Am I Said give Ralph Beckett a strong hand, with the former looking the pick after a promising fourth at Salisbury on his introduction. Recent Newcastle runner-up Byblos is also noteworthy.

Although already gelded, PRESENT TIMES showed up well when runner-up over C&D on debut and, with improvement forthcoming, he's fancied to edge out Byblos, who is closely matched with him on form. I Am I Said is a newcomer to note.

Smartly bred BYBLOS is taken to show further progress and get off the mark. Present Times is feared most.

Could do with brushing up her jumping, though. Second over C&D last November but needs improvement from 7lb out of handicap today.
1	6 1st (6) (28/1 -40%) Mutley Crew	28 28/1(-40%)	(6) Mutley Crew 28/1, Showed more than on debut when third of 14 in maiden hurdle at Newton Abbot (18.5f, good) in August, but failed to repeat that effort when well beaten at this course (17.7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Improvement required as she goes handicapping. Did not show a great deal in her qualifying races but may improve in handicaps.
2	3 2nd (3) (15/8 +17%) Tuscan Rose	1.875 15/8(+17%)	(3) Tuscan Rose 15/8, Went the right way upped in trip in handicaps last season, improving further when getting off the mark in mares' race at Taunton (23.9f, soft) in March. Back down in distance for her return, but she's respected with her yard going well. Kept on well for 3m win in March; drops back in trip after her break; shortlisted.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/1 -22%) Pennsylvanie	11 11/1(-22%)	(2) Pennsylvanie 11/1, Fair form over hurdles in France. Largely struggled for Alexandra Dunn subsequently, but was runner-up at this course (21.8f) last September. However, after 12 months off she was well held over C&D on stable debut 19 days ago. Cheekpieces now reached for. Made low-key stable debut this month but worth a glance in the betting today; headgear on.
4	5 4th (5) (11/1 -69%) Miss Popalong	11 11/1(-69%)	(5) Miss Popalong 11/1, Didn't show much in a bumper and novice hurdles last season, but in first-time hood she took a step forward on handicap debut when third of 9 at this C&D (good) in May. Remains lightly raced so she could still have more to offer. Just a respectable third over C&D on handicap debut in May but may have more to offer.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (7/4 +36%) Drumlee Spud	1.75 7/4(+36%)	(1) Drumlee Spud 7/4, Made promising start under Rules last season, in front when falling at the last in mares' maiden hurdle at Stratford (22f, heavy) in November. Only seventh in handicap at Newbury (20.5f, good to soft) in March, but she's a leading contender returning on softer ground. Placed in two novice hurdles last season and not disgraced in valuable handicap afterwards.

Not in the same form at Southwell next time, though she's not dismissed from her current mark. Ran okay when back over hurdles in May but a lesser effort followed; returns from a break.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (20/1 +39%) Jaunty Belle	20 20/1(+39%)	(7) Jaunty Belle 20/1, Still a maiden and, in first-time blinkers, she ultimately finished well held despite making the frame when fourth of 9 in mares' handicap hurdle at this course (21.8f, good) 45 days ago. Has work to do with cheekpieces back on. Ran better than bare form suggests here last time but still makes only limited appeal.

LADY SALVADOR will be sharper for a recent comeback run over these obstacles. Still in contention approaching the last hurdle, she faded in the closing stages to finish third over further that day, but looks capable of winning over timber off her current mark and gets another chance now dropped back in trip. Tuscan Rose can feature again having been raised only 4lb for winning over 3m at Taunton in March, while the unexposed Miss Popalong placed over C&D in May and could have a say in the outcome on only her second start in a handicap.

After making a promising start to her career, DRUMLEE SPUD finished well held in a Grade 2 contest at Newbury on handicap debut when last seen in March, but back on softer ground she can take advantage of this drop in grade. Tuscan Rose showed improved form in handicaps last season and is feared most, ahead of Miss Popalong.

This is a huge drop in grade for DRUMLEE SPUD (nap), who could be far too good for this field.

KOOL ONE has run well on his last couple of outings and looks capable of landing one of these off his current mark. The Kool Kompany gelding steps up in trip again after two placed efforts over a mile and a half and that might prove the difference. Tudor Manor ran well over this trip when chasing home Sir Allen at Listowel and he could be a big player off just a 1lb higher figure. Forlio has been knocking on the door and is another who has to be on the shortlist.

TUDOR MANOR couldn't deal with a rejuventated rival at Listowel last time but he was clear of the others and is worth a chance to gain compensation. Elusive Guy is holding his form well and should be thereabouts along with Kool One.

Wide open and a tentative vote going to CAFE CON LECHE, who didn't appear to quite stay 2m last time and will appreciate this trip

Goblet Of Fire has registered three victories on the all-weather since his respectable fourth at Bangor in May and Nicky Henderson's charge must enter calculations. However, TOONAGH WARRIOR has posted several creditable efforts in defeat since his Wetherby triumph in November last year and he may offer slightly more value on his return to action. Ascension Day also makes some appeal now back at 2m.

GOBLET OF FIRE has improved further on the Flat since last seen over hurdles and Nicky Henderson's 4-y-o makes plenty of appeal returned to this sphere from what could well prove a lenient mark. Jeudidee and Ascension Day head up the dangers, along with Toonagh Warrior who isn't out of things on his seasonal bow.

The 4yo GOBLET OF FIRE (nap) has thrived for Nicky Henderson and could be thrown-in from a mark of 108.

Half-sister to several winners, including smart 11.4f-16.2f winner Summer Moon and useful 1½m-13f winner Hardstone. Dam 2-y-o 7f/1m winner who stayed 1½m. Interesting newcomer. Fine middle-distance pedigree; betting should guide as to expectation levels.

Half-brother to smart 9f-1½m winner Naval College and 1m/8.6f winner Desert Caravan. Last of 5 in novice (50/1) at Salisbury (7f, good to soft) on debut 20 days ago, slowly away. Never threatened on Salisbury debut 3 weeks ago; good middle-distance pedigree; do better.

Narrowly denied over C&D in July and a respectable fourth over 1m here last time out, LOCH LEVEN must enter calculations as she sets the standard and has experience on her side. Add to that Oisin Murphy is doing the steering in the plate and she boasts sound claims. Newcomers Crest Of Light, Penfolds Grange and Transparent should be monitored for market support.

LOCH LEVEN went close in a C&D novice 3 starts back and has a big shout if reproducing that in a thin maiden. String of Pearls and Transparent are interesting newcomers.

Loch Leven sets the standard but she's not bombproof and one of the newcomers may have her measure. CREST OF LIGHT is suggested.

1	10 1st (10) (12/1 +40%) Jakarta	12 12/1(+40%)	(10) Jakarta 12/1, Off the mark at Goodwood in May but hasn't really fired since, including in a nursery (when blinkered first time) there last time. Has a bit to prove. Won at Goodwood (6f, good) in May on second run but unable to reproduce that promise.
2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 +14%) Al Misbar	3 3/1(+14%)	(1) Al Misbar 3/1, 1.5 million half-brother to outstanding sprinter Battaash and better than the result on each start to date. Should be better than a mark of 83 and, having been gelded prior to this nursery debut, he's got very appealing claims. Needs more, but gelded since last time which could unlock the potential in his pedigree.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 +29%) Megalithic	10 10/1(+29%)	(5) Megalithic 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in nursery (5/1) at Goodwood (7f, heavy) 10 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Goodwood last time was a step back in the right direction but he needs another today.
4	7 4th (7) (10/3 +33%) Veydari	3.333333 10/3(+33%)	(7) Veydari 10/3, 4/1, career best when winning 11-runner nursery at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 16 days ago. Cost plenty at the breeze ups and no surprise if he continues to progress now up and running. Made all at Pontefract on first run since being gelded; could take 7lb rise in his stride.
5th	8 5th (8) (8/1 -14%) Aegean Sea	8 8/1(-14%)	(8) Aegean Sea 8/1, Made a promising start when third in 7f Sandown novice in June but has failed to kick on. Headgear changed again but others make more appeal. Fair fifth over C&D recently but needs to raise his game; another new type of headgear.
6th	2 6th (2) (5/1 +23%) Cairdeas	5 5/1(+23%)	(2) Cairdeas 5/1, Showed a good attitude to get off the mark on the July Course in August and fared as well as could have been expected when tenth in a sales race at Doncaster last time. Not ruled out on nursery bow. 7f novice winner; mid-division in sales race last time but not ruled out on nursery debut.
7th	14 7th (14) (12/1 +14%) Maldevious	12 12/1(+14%)	(14) Maldevious 12/1, Breeze-up purchase who is getting better by the run, third at Haydock last time. Hasn't been handed a lenient mark but is bred to do better again. Trainer has enjoyed a good season with his 2yos and she's not ruled out on nursery debut.
8th	6 8th (6) (16/1 -14%) Ecology	16 16/1(-14%)	(6) Ecology 16/1, 5,000 gns yearling, Earthlight filly. Knew her job when second of 9 in maiden at Haydock (6f, good) on debut. Hasn't backed that up but returns from a couple of months off with blinkers tried. Has gone backwards after promising debut, but one to watch in the betting in first nursery.
9th	11 9th (11) (16/1 +20%) Rokuni	16 16/1(+20%)	(11) Rokuni 16/1, Came good at the fourth time of asking when making all in 5-runner maiden at Brighton (6f) in August and back to that sort of form when creditable fifth of 14 in nursery at Newbury (7f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others look better treated. Fair fifth of 14 in Newbury nursery last month and he holds each-way possibilities.
10th	13 10th (13) (50/1 -25%) Help From Above	50 50/1(-25%)	(13) Help From Above 50/1, Encouragement in novices and hooded after a short break, so improvement can't be discounted switched to nurseries. Promising fourth on debut but two lesser runs have followed; wears a hood on nursery debut.
11th	9 11th (9) (18/1 +36%) Noble Guest	18 18/1(+36%)	(9) Noble Guest 18/1, Bred to be better than a mark of 76 and shaped better than the result on his penultimate outing, so he's not ruled out on first go in nursery company. Nursery debut; well bred & gelded since last time, which may result in him settling better.

Punters will need to be in a forgiving mood with MEGALITHIC, but it may pay to do so. He hasn't cut much ice in his two starts in nurseries but he showed a useful level of form prior to that and, sporting first-time blinkers off what may transpire to be a workable mark, he gets a tentative nod. Veydari kept on well when scoring over 6f on testing ground at Pontefract and merits consideration, while Al Misbar has shown enough in his three qualifying runs to suggest that he can play a hand on his first appearance as a gelding.

AL MISBAR hasn't lived up to his huge price tag as yet but, after a gelding operation, there's scope for him to step forward now handicapping and he's preferred to last-time-out winners Veydari and We Dare To Dream in a competitive nursery.

The attractively bred NOBLE GUEST could settle better now he's been gelded and he's taken to make a winning nursery debut.

Can make presence felt. Progressive hurdler; good runs in defeat on Turf previously and has to be on the shortlist.
2	10 2nd (10) (16/1 -14%) Black Soul	16 16/1(-14%)	(10) Black Soul 16/1, 9/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 11 in handicap at Thurles (16.4f, good) 13 days ago. Chance on old form. Yet to deliver but remains of interest and rider's claim here a likely positive.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 +44%) Charlie Darling	5 5/1(+44%)	(6) Charlie Darling 5/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Tramore in August. 10/1, creditable fifth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Out-and-out stayer has been generally running well of late but others better handicapped.

5th	9 5th (9) (16/1 -100%) Young Lucy	16 16/1(-100%)	(9) Young Lucy 16/1, Bumper winner. Respectable fourth of 14 in handicap (9/1) at Sligo (13.4f, soft) 77 days ago, running on. Has good chance on pick of form. Ideally wants it softer but on a decent mark so respected.
6th	14 6th (14) (5/1 +17%) Billie Frechette	5 5/1(+17%)	(14) Billie Frechette 5/1, Creditable second of 16 in handicap (12/1) at Roscommon (12.2f, soft) 9 days ago. Player. Recent Thurles second going the right way; contender if staying this longer trip.

8th	4 8th (4) (12/1 +14%) Evolving	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Evolving 12/1, 16/1, sixth of 13 in handicap at Thurles (12.5f, good) 13 days ago, running on. Encouraging recent return on Flat at Thurles; rider enjoying a good spell.
9th	18 9th (18) (12/1 +64%) Bhean Saibhre	12 12/1(+64%)	(18) Bhean Saibhre 12/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form ninth of 16 in handicap at this course (10f, good to soft, 11/1) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Easy to look elsewhere. Penultimate Roscommon effort had some merit; upped in trip here but 2lb wrong.
10th	5 10th (5) (9/1 +44%) Rauzan	9 9/1(+44%)	(5) Rauzan 9/1, Eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Listowel (16f, soft, 20/1) 27 days ago. Fair on the Flat, bit below form on last Flat outing. Progressive hurdler; potentially well-handicapped on Flat return.

13th	20 13th (20) (28/1 -27%) Maxwell Smart	28 28/1(-27%)	(20) Maxwell Smart 28/1, Respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 12/1) 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Significantly back up in trip. Has work to do. Couple of encouraging C&D efforts on good ground; too keen over inadequate trip latest.
14th	11 14th (11) (33/1 0%) Wendell's Lass	33 33/1(0%)	(11) Wendell's Lass 33/1, Bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (15.8f, good, 9/1) 8 days ago. Modest on the Flat, good on last Flat outing. Something to find on form. Just fair hurdles form of late, remains opposable off this Turf mark.
15th	15 15th (15) (80/1 -100%) Lariat	80 80/1(-100%)	(15) Lariat 80/1, Thirteenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (17f, soft, 66/1). Off 10 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving J. J. Lambe. Absent since last Christmas and may well need this comeback run on yard debut.
16th	8 16th (8) (50/1 -52%) Enquire Within	50 50/1(-52%)	(8) Enquire Within 50/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Down Royal in September. Eleventh of 16 in handicap at Roscommon (12.2f, soft, 18/1) 9 days ago. Soft ground may have been against her last time so not one to rule out.

Knocking on the door over the summer off this mark; back from a break and respected.

RAUZAN looks potentially very well treated back on the level. The Australia gelding was a big improver for Eoin Doyle over jumps during the summer, winning four on the bounce, and it's no surprise to see connections try him back on the Flat for his first run under these Rules since August 2023. Say It So has been holding his form well and recorded his second win over hurdles at Killarney earlier in the month. He had run well at the same venue on his last outing on the Flat and, off just a 2lb higher mark, he's a danger. Billie Frechette ran well when edged out close home at Roscommon and is another to consider.

YOUNG LUCY shaped encouragingly after 11 weeks off when fourth at Sligo and is potentially on a good mark if building on that back from another break. Improving fillies Lady Kai and Billie Frechette head the dangers.

A four-time winner over hurdles since last seen on the Flat. RAUZAN could prove nicely treated here

3	3 (3) (12/1 0%) Grass's Jet	12 12/1(0%)	(3) Grass's Jet 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden who in first-time cheekpieces, failed to meet expectations on debut for new yard (sold £21,000) after 7 months off when eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (23.2f, good) in June. Others more convincing. Beaten a distance when favourite on first start for this yard; drops 2lb; bit to prove..
1	5 1st (5) (2/1 +11%) Queens Venture	2 2/1(+11%)	(5) Queens Venture 2/1, Westerner filly who looked to have been let-in lightly after just 2 starts over hurdles and duly made a mockery of her opening mark in 12-runner handicap at Market Rasen (23.1f, good) last week, quickening clear before 2 out. Plenty more to come and will be hard to beat under a penalty. Easy winner last week; returns to shorter but has plenty going for her under a penalty..
2	7 2nd (7) (5/1 +38%) Just Chasing May	5 5/1(+38%)	(7) Just Chasing May 5/1, Looked one to follow in opening his account in thoroughly dominant fashion in 13-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) when last seen in June, leading approaching 3 out the asserting quickly. With more improvement in the pipeline, he's a definite player on return. Up 12lb for easy Uttoxeter win; 10lb claimer helps negate that; remains of interest..
3	12 3rd (12) (18/1 +10%) Lenebane	18 18/1(+10%)	(12) Lenebane 18/1, Remains a maiden, but with a visor refitted she fared better from her reduced mark on both starts at Market Rasen this summer. Entirely possible she needed the run at Perth (20.2f, soft) 4 weeks ago and now has Brian Hughes taking over in the saddle. Well beaten latest but an each-way player if performing to the level she did before that..
4	2 4th (2) (6/1 +50%) Court Cian	6 6/1(+50%)	(2) Court Cian 6/1, Given a considerate return from a 4-month break back hurdling for his first outing since leaving M. Kehoe when fifth of 11 in novice at Bangor (19.6f, good) just under 7 weeks ago. Has been handed a tricky opening mark but there could be more to come. Bumper second and point winner; improvement is required off his opening mark..
5th	10 5th (10) (12/1 +40%) Zuul	12 12/1(+40%)	(10) Zuul 12/1, Showed the benefit of a recent run and seemed to stay the longer trip when 2¼ lengths fourth of 12 to Queens Venture in handicap at Market Rasen (23.1f, good) last week. Hard to see him turning the tables with that rival but could well make the frame. Unable to make an impact from similar marks on his two starts since a break; more needed..
6th	9 6th (9) (33/1 +34%) Mademewhatiam	33 33/1(+34%)	(9) Mademewhatiam 33/1, Little encouragement to glean in novice/handicap hurdles. Has rejoined former yard and a first-time tongue tie applied but hard to enthuse over. Unplaced in seven starts; tongue-tie tried; plenty to prove on his return to this stable..
7th	11 7th (11) (11/1 +45%) Gone In Sixty	11 11/1(+45%)	(11) Gone In Sixty 11/1, Long-standing maiden who shaped like a non-stayer upped in trip when only seventh at Fontwell (25.8f, good) last time. More required. Below par latest but is an each-way player back down in trip, if he can shrug that off..
8th	1 8th (1) (13/2 -8%) Fashionelle	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(1) Fashionelle 13/2, Off the mark at Worcester last month, proving a different proposition under a more positive ride. Ran at least as well under a penalty when finding only an unexposed sort too strong at Warwick (19f, good) just over 4 weeks ago and should be bang there again. 2m4f hurdle winner; probably needs improvement to defy another rise but not ruled out..
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (12/1 -41%) Stuti	12 12/1(-41%)	(4) Stuti 12/1, Course bumper winner who made an encouraging start in this sphere when third of 13 in 20.6f novice at Market Rasen last November. Close to form but again found a couple too good when last seen at Hexham (20.1f, good) 4 months ago and now heads down the handicap route. Third in four of her five hurdles and unable to better her bumper form; each-way player..
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (20/1 +20%) Spitfire Bridge	20 20/1(+20%)	(6) Spitfire Bridge 20/1, Showed ability in bumpers and looked a work-in-progress in trio of maiden hurdles to date this summer. Fit from Flat but failed to find the necessary improvement contesting his first handicap over hurdles at Huntingdon (19.6f, good) recently so more required to open his account. Looked in need of a favour from the handicapper on his recent handicap debut..
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (33/1 -230%) Lord Warburton	33 33/1(-230%)	(8) Lord Warburton 33/1, Modest at best on the Flat (stays 1½m) but and made a successful handicap hurdle debut from 13 lb out of the weights with the same visor/tongue strap combination fitted in 9-runner event at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to firm) last month. Needs to prove that was no fluke. Up 6lb for his 33-1 win at Market Rasen (2m2f, good) and now has to back it up; respected..

QUEENS VENTURE justified strong support in the market when making a winning handicap bow at Market Rasen last week. Dan Skelton's filly scored with plenty in hand and she is sure to take the world of beating under a 7lb penalty. Fashionelle is in form and a potential improver back up to the distance of her Worcester triumph. She may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of last-time-out Uttoxeter winner Just Chasing May.

QUEENS VENTURE made a mockery of an opening mark of 91 at Market Rasen last week and with plenty more to offer, Dan Skelton's 4-y-o is strongly fancied to follow up under a penalty. Just Chasing May looked one to follow in opening his account in thoroughly dominant fashion at Uttoxeter in the summer, so he heads up the dangers on return, with Fashionelle and Stuti another couple worth considering, too.

Having won with plenty in hand when stepped up in trip on her handicap debut, QUEENS VENTURE is taken to successfully defy a penalty.

Big shout with progress on the cards. Good 2nd on Salisbury debut (7f, heavy) 3 weeks ago; leading claims with progress expected.
2	11 2nd (11) (5/1 -25%) Bouvier	5 5/1(-25%)	(11) Bouvier 5/1, Well held in Group 2 in France but placed all 3 starts in maidens either side, latterly when third in 12-runner event at Southwell (6f) 18 days ago. Return to 7f will hold no fears and she's expected to be thereabouts under Oisin Murphy. Goodwood second sets the standard; found out by 6f latest and this trip more suitable.
3	4 3rd (4) (28/1 -100%) Warrnambool	28 28/1(-100%)	(4) Warrnambool 28/1, Foaled February 13. €46,000 yearling, Reliable Man gelding. Half-brother to 2 minor winners abroad. Dam unraced half-sister to smart German 6f-1m winner Waldpfad. Half-brother to two winners in Europe; likely one for further down the line.
4	7 4th (7) (18/1 +82%) Spirit Of Albion	18 18/1(+82%)	(7) Spirit Of Albion 18/1, 25,000 gns Invincible Spirit gelding. Sent off at 125/1 and went with little encouragement when sixth of 8 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, soft) on debut 26 days ago. Can only be watched. Well-beaten 125-1 shot on Newmarket debut last month (7f, soft); big step forward needed.
5th	5 5th (5) (25/1 -257%) Kodi Fire	25 25/1(-257%)	(5) Kodi Fire 25/1, Kodi Bear colt who was all the better for his debut experience when fourth of 12 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good to soft, 66/1) 33 days ago. Likely he can do better again and claims of making the frame back on all weather. Second run was better than his debut; looks ready for 7f; more appealing than many.
6th	6 6th (6) (100/1 -100%) Prince Of Joy	100 100/1(-100%)	(6) Prince Of Joy 100/1, Oasis Dream gelding who hasn't figured in a couple of starts to date, eighth of 13 in novice at Chelmsford City (7f) 25 days ago. Looks one for handicaps/later on. Two runs not devoid of promise but handicaps more suitable after this.
7th	12 7th (12) (33/1 -65%) Arinagour	33 33/1(-65%)	(12) Arinagour 33/1, Twice-raced filly. 8/1, stepped up a little on her debut effort when fifth of 10 in maiden at Bath (8f, good) 39 days ago. Still, handicaps will be more suitable moving forward. Modest form in two turf starts last month; one for handicaps over further after this.
8th	10 8th (10) (125/1 -150%) Friday Again	125 125/1(-150%)	(10) Friday Again 125/1, Kodi Bear filly. Offered a glimmer of promise amidst greenness/suffering a wide trip when eighth of 10 in novice at this course (6f) on debut 12 days ago. Wide draw to overcome here and she's probably one for the longer term. Hint of ability amidst greenness when 200-1 here 12 days ago (6f); longer-term prospect.

Half-brother to very smart winner up to 9f Liberty Lane. Dam 14.5f winner. Appeals on paper and he's one to note on debut. 38,000gns half-brother to Cambridgeshire winner Liberty Lane (RPR 117); newcomer of note.

Handicaps likely to be more his bag. Needs to step up on the form he's shown in two runs this autumn; handicaps beckon.
11th	9 11th (9) (66/1 -100%) Unfortunate Heir	66 66/1(-100%)	(9) Unfortunate Heir 66/1, Unfortunately colt. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart winner up to 7f Good Guess. Proved very green and offered little when eighth of 9 in novice at this course (6f) on debut 33 days ago. In good hands however, and this ought to reveal more. In need of the experience on his debut here (6f) last month; needs a big step forward.
12th	8 12th (8) (250/1 -150%) Invincible Storm	250 250/1(-150%)	(8) Invincible Storm 250/1, Twice-raced colt. Tenth of 11 in maiden (200/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 18 days ago. Another who can only be watched at present. Well beaten in two 7f runs at Wolverhampton this autumn; no appeal.

CHAR displayed plenty of promise when filling second place on his debut over this distance at Salisbury earlier in the month and Roger Varian's colt is hard to oppose on the back of that performance. Bouvier also brings strong form claims to the table, but could be vulnerable to the less-exposed selection. Any market support for El Bosh on his racecourse bow would have to be noted.

CHAR was noted finishing to good effect once the penny dropped when runner-up on debut at Salisbury 3 weeks ago. Open to improvement with that under his belt, he looks to hold sound claims of going one place better. Bouvier, despite a less-than-ideal draw, appealing newcomer El Bosh and Kodi Fire are others worth a look.

Kodi Fire can step forward again over this new trip but CHAR is fancied to build on his promising Salisbury debut.

Not seen since (gelded) but remains a good prospect. Won last December on sole 2yo start; absent since but could still be tough to beat.
2	4 2nd (4) (13/2 +7%) Tex	6.5 13/2(+7%)	(4) Tex 13/2, Shaped with promise on debut at Windsor but failed to match that form faced with testing ground when fourth of 7 in 7f novice at Leicester (heavy) 8 days ago. Worth another chance to build on debut form. Fairly encouraging debut before lesser run on heavy ground; not written off.
3	3 3rd (3) (20/1 -82%) Huntly Lodge	20 20/1(-82%)	(3) Huntly Lodge 20/1, Coach House gelding. Half-brother to winner up to 9f Shades of Mist and 7f/1m winner Mayfair Madame.

QAZAQ has been off the track since winning on his debut over this trip at Chelmsford in December, but the son of Kingman has been found an ideal opportunity to maintain his unbeaten record. Tex is the pick of the rest with experience but has plenty to find with the selection if he's on form, so the main threat may come from the newcomer Huntly Lodge.

QAZAQ created an excellent impression when making a winning start under a hands-and-heels ride at Chelmsford 10 months ago and this appeals as an outstanding opportunity to maintain his unbeaten record. Tex was possibly unsuited by conditions at Leicester last week and looks the one to follow the selection home if returning to something like his debut form.

This revolves around QAZAQ who won in fine style on his debut at Chelmsford last December. He's been found a weak race for his comeback.

2	1 2nd (1) (14/1 -17%) Old Chums	14 14/1(-17%)	(1) Old Chums 14/1, 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Latest win at Chester in June. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 26 days ago. Deserves respect. Bounced back from spell in doldrums with fair fourth at Wolverhampton; also effective here.
3	3 3rd (3) (12/1 -20%) Thorntonledale Max	12 12/1(-20%)	(3) Thorntonledale Max 12/1, C&D winner. Winner here in August. Last of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Newbury (8f, soft) 32 days ago. Return to this track could suit. Dead-heated over C&D in August; tailed off since but on turf debut (heavy ground).
4	7 4th (7) (6/1 +70%) Paladin	6 6/1(+70%)	(7) Paladin 6/1, 16/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, heavy) 16 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Others make more appeal. Returned from absence with promising fourth last month but soundly beaten subsequently.
5th	5 5th (5) (5/1 +17%) King David	5 5/1(+17%)	(5) King David 5/1, C&D winner. Winner here in September. Good third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 7/2) 24 days ago, nearest finish. Merits consideration. Won over C&D on AW debut and very close third since; progressive and on the shortlist.
6th	6 6th (6) (14/1 -17%) Star Pupil	14 14/1(-17%)	(6) Star Pupil 14/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in April. Last of 10 in handicap (6/1) at this C&D. Off 140 days. Still not fully exposed, so not completely written off. Disappointing on handicap debut over C&D in May but retains potential and not written off.
7th	4 7th (4) (17/2 -42%) Rawaasi	8.5 17/2(-42%)	(4) Rawaasi 17/2, 4/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 18 days ago. Has lacked consistency to this point but may have a bigger effort in her. 0-11 but has run well on all three attempts on AW (two here); could again be thereabouts.
8th	2 8th (2) (4/1 +38%) Speeding Bullet	4 4/1(+38%)	(2) Speeding Bullet 4/1, Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) 41 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Could get involved if the headgear perks him up. Well handicapped on 2yo form but no better than fifth across his five runs this season.

BERRY CLEVER had plenty in hand when winning over C&D last week and a repeat of that effort may be good enough to take this contest as well, despite a 6lb penalty. Recent Southwell second Rawaasi is likely to be in the mix once again, while King David edges out Old Chums and Thorntonledale Max to be best of the rest.

BERRY CLEVER found improvement to run out a cosy winner over C&D 9 days ago and is worth a chance to defy the penalty at the possible expense of the in-form King David. Rawaasi is another player if she can back up her return to form at Southwell recently.

He had been looking exposed but BERRY CLEVER got off the mark in fine style over C&D last week and can defy a 6lb penalty.

Better than bare result at Chelmsford latest; effective here and over 1m; each-way shout.
2	7 2nd (7) (2/1 +27%) Bigbertiebassett	2 2/1(+27%)	(7) Bigbertiebassett 2/1, Bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to soft, 8/1) 33 days ago, hampered. Blinkers on 1st time. Not out of things. Trip/ground not ideal in recent starts; down in weights; now tried in blinkers.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 -60%) Racing Demon	12 12/1(-60%)	(2) Racing Demon 12/1, Three-time winner this year who arrives on back of creditable third of 13 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft) 22 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again. Capable at this level but he usually fluffs the start and isn't the safest proposition.
4	3 4th (3) (20/1 -25%) Eagle Eyed Tom	20 20/1(-25%)	(3) Eagle Eyed Tom 20/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in handicap (16/1) at Newcastle (10.2f) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Turf winner for C Hills; promising stable debut in August but disappointing twice since.
5th	11 5th (11) (33/1 -200%) Maysong	33 33/1(-200%)	(11) Maysong 33/1, Course winner. Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm, 22/1) 34 days ago. Others look better treated. Second over off 15lb higher in March; disappointing this summer but should revive soon.
6th	12 6th (12) (15/2 -50%) Unreal Connection	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(12) Unreal Connection 15/2, Aided by first-time blinkers when good third over C&D last month and backed that up when close second of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 13 days ago. Holds solid claims. Two solid efforts since blinkers were added; should remain competitive.
7th	1 7th (1) (14/1 +58%) Masqool	14 14/1(+58%)	(1) Masqool 14/1, C&D winner. Twelfth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (125/1) 14 days ago. Hard to fancy. Low-key return from a break here two weeks ago; good mark on 2024 best though.
8th	13 8th (13) (15/2 +25%) Gamblers Kitty	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(13) Gamblers Kitty 15/2, Found improvement when good second of 6 in handicap (7/2) at Yarmouth (7f, soft) 8 days ago. Races off same mark here and warrants respect. Two promising 7f runs at Yarmouth this autumn; drawn widest and stamina concerns at a mile.
9th	9 9th (9) (33/1 -136%) Port Erin	33 33/1(-136%)	(9) Port Erin 33/1, C&D winner. Back from 9 months off when eleventh of 13 in handicap (20/1) at this course (7f) on yard debut 37 days ago. Entitled to be sharper now. C&D winner off 3lb higher last year; can leave stable debut behind him but he needs to.
10th	14 10th (14) (11/2 +78%) Raqraaq	5.5 11/2(+78%)	(14) Raqraaq 11/2, One win from 23 Flat runs. Last of 13 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft, 25/1) 22 days ago. Makes limited appeal. Latest run excusable but he has a modest strike-rate and others appeal more for the win.
11th	4 11th (4) (80/1 -142%) Always Fearless	80 80/1(-142%)	(4) Always Fearless 80/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Windsor in July. Last of 10 in handicap (33/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 27 days ago. Others more persuasive. Two C&D wins to his name; scored at Windsor in July but finished last in both runs since.
12th	8 12th (8) (12/1 +14%) Argentali	12 12/1(+14%)	(8) Argentali 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Disappointed on handicap debut seven weeks ago; cheekpieces added; new, longer trip.

Significantly up in trip. Chance on old form. On a good mark but out of form this summer and stamina an obvious concern.
14th	10 14th (10) (125/1 -400%) Taskheer	125 125/1(-400%)	(10) Taskheer 125/1, Winner of 3 of his 4 starts (all low-grade handicaps) in what turned out to be a truncated 2023 campaign. Out of his depth back from 17-month absence at Ascot recently. This run will reveal more. Hopeless task back from 521-day absence this month; this more suitable but carries risk.

RACING DEMON showed a likeable attitude when scoring over a mile at Bath and, after faring best of those held up when an admirable third over the same C&D subsequently, he gets the vote to return to winning ways off an unchanged mark. Ten Commitments wasn't able to show his true colours when sixth over 7f at Chelmsford and could bounce back now eased 1lb. Argentali didn't cut much ice on her handicap debut over 7f at Lingfield, but she may be capable of better now sporting first-time cheekpieces.

UNREAL CONNECTION has taken well to the fitting of blinkers in recent starts and can get back on the scoreboard here. Ten Commitments and Racing Demon head the list of dangers.

Racing Demon can go well but it may be worth chancing BIGBERTIEBASSETT off a reduced mark now returned to 1m and tried in blinkers.

1	6 1st (6) (9/2 +0%) Whitcombe Rockstar	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(6) Whitcombe Rockstar 9/2, Made it 5 wins from 6 runs this year when landing 14-runner handicap (11/1) at this C&D 46 days ago, scoring readily under good ride from widest draw. Not taken lightly in his current form. 5-6 in 2024, four of the wins C&D; defied wide draw latest; big player despite 6lb rise.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/4 +73%) Silver Sword	2.75 11/4(+73%)	(5) Silver Sword 11/4, Three-time winner last season. After 9 weeks off, shaped better than result when eighteenth of 31 in Cambridgeshire Handicap at Newmarket (9f, good to soft, 28/1) 25 days ago, not ideally placed. Back down to his last winning mark. Struggled in 2024 and could prove vulnerable despite today's drop in class.
3	10 3rd (10) (14/1 +44%) Lion Of War	14 14/1(+44%)	(10) Lion Of War 14/1, In first-time cheekpieces, failed to come on for reappearance (had rejoined former yard) when tailed off in Cambridgeshire Handicap at Newmarket (9f, good to soft, 100/1) 25 days ago. Has enough to prove with blinkers applied. Comes here under a cloud but down in weights and won only AW start by a wide margin.
4	13 4th (13) (12/1 +0%) Mortlake	12 12/1(+0%)	(13) Mortlake 12/1, Not in the same form as previous outing when last of 10 in handicap at Goodwood (9.9f, good to firm, 14/1) 83 days ago. Needs to find more back down in trip as he makes polytrack debut. Two good efforts on fast turf; even those runs will need bettering if he is to win this.
5th	2 5th (2) (25/1 -79%) Tempus	25 25/1(-79%)	(2) Tempus 25/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Made the frame in a trio of handicaps this summer, but found run of good form coming to a halt when last of 9 at Ascot (8f, good to soft, 12/1) 47 days ago. Bounce back called for. Conditions to suit and on dangerous mark; had an excuse for disappointing run last time.
6th	14 6th (14) (3/1 -9%) Dolce Courage	3 3/1(-9%)	(14) Dolce Courage 3/1, Unbeaten in 2 starts last year, much improved from debut when defying a penalty in 9-runner novice (7/4) at Newcastle (8f) in October. Off 11 months but he's a major player on handicap debut. Unbeaten 4yo; opening mark looks fair but he's returning from 358 days on the sidelines.
7th	11 7th (11) (10/1 -25%) Gloucestershire	10 10/1(-25%)	(11) Gloucestershire 10/1, After 10-month absence, shaped encouragingly on sole run for Richard Hannon when third at Newmarket (10f, good to firm, 8/1) in May. Off again since, but he's one to consider dropped in trip returned to his previous yard. Lightly raced for his age and generally reliable; 1m perhaps too sharp after a break.
8th	12 8th (12) (20/1 +0%) Love De Vega	20 20/1(+0%)	(12) Love De Vega 20/1, Three wins from 17 runs this year, with latest success at Pontefract in July. Unproven on the ground when last of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (8f, heavy, 28/1) 28 days ago. Has something to find from his current mark, though. Not much room for error off this mark and likely there will be better-treated rivals.
9th	4 9th (4) (28/1 -40%) Excel Power	28 28/1(-40%)	(4) Excel Power 28/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022 and has been proving more miss than hit this year, eighth of 11 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good, 22/1) when last seen in July. On losing run; down in weights and return to AW a plus; others still look more convincing.
10th	7 10th (7) (25/1 -79%) Bless Him	25 25/1(-79%)	(7) Bless Him 25/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Hasn't gone on from his encouraging reappearance, ninth of 10 in handicap at Ascot (8f, good to firm, 15/2) 74 days ago, but he lurks on a dangerous mark. Good 3rd in the Victoria Cup on his reappearance; now 6lb lower but he has struggled since.
11th	1 11th (1) (18/1 -125%) Gorak	18 18/1(-125%)	(1) Gorak 18/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023 but has largely held his form well this season, third of 13 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good to firm, 6/1) 53 days ago. Can give another good account. Several good runs in defeat this year and he's a contender despite top weight.
12th	3 12th (3) (22/1 -83%) Fantasy Believer	22 22/1(-83%)	(3) Fantasy Believer 22/1, Typically slowly away but completed hat-trick when scoring at Southwell (11.1f) in August. Possibly unsuited by conditions when last of 9 in handicap at Newbury (10f, soft, 12/1) 32 days ago, though he needs things to drop right. Slow starter but in fine form this summer; lacklustre run on heavy latest; drops in trip.
12th	8 12th (8) (40/1 -21%) Under The Sun	40 40/1(-21%)	(8) Under The Sun 40/1, Has failed to beat a rival on last 3 starts, tailed off in listed race at Ayr (10f, good to firm, 150/1) 32 days ago. Blinkers now reached for as he makes handicap debut. Not beaten a rival in last three starts; drops in trip and class with blinkers now tried.
14th	9 14th (9) (20/1 +0%) Merlin The Wizard	20 20/1(+0%)	(9) Merlin The Wizard 20/1, Won 3 times last year, including at this course (7f). However, hasn't offered much on last 3 starts, off a further 3 months ahead of finishing seventh of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good, 16/1) 74 days ago. Three wins as a 3yo but down the field in both starts this year; still high in weights.

Two from two in his career, DOLCE COURAGE looked a gelding to keep firmly on side when scoring at Newcastle last season, pulling clear with the runner-up. Provided he is fully tuned up on his return from a prolonged absence, he looks the one to side with now making his handicap debut for the in-form Gosden team. Whitcombe Rockstar impressed when bringing up a hat-trick in the London Mile Final over C&D and merits respect off 6lb higher, while the class-dropping Gorak can also go well.

DOLCE COURAGE looked a useful prospect when winning a pair of novice races last year and he is taken to make a successful reappearance with more still to offer as he goes handicapping. He can see off the challenge of Whitcombe Rockstar, who is respected as he bids for a sixth win of the season, with Gloucestershire completing the shortlist.

Dolce Courage and Gorak are of interest but WHITCOMBE ROCKSTAR (nap) goes from strength to strength and can win again.

CADOGAN PLACE was tapped for toe at a crucial stage when a staying-on third over 1m4f on his return from a break here last month and, tackling 2m for the first time, the promising son of Frankel looks well capable of making a successful handicap bow. Runner-up behind an in-form stayer over track and trip, Red Flyer looks the main danger off an unchanged mark, although Duke Of Oxford warrants respect off just 1lb higher than when third in the Northumberland Plate on his penultimate start.

Having looked a good prospect when winning on debut, CADOGAN PLACE shaped as if needing the emphasis more on stamina when third at this course last month, so he could yet do better upped in trip on his handicap bow. He is preferred to Duke of Oxford, who can bounce back having had a wide trip on his latest outing, with Galactic Charm also considered.

This year's Northumberland Plate third DUKE OF OXFORD, possesses the ability, stamina and track craft to expose any flaws elsewhere.
