Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (3/1 +25%) Loch Carron	3 3/1(+25%)	(5) Loch Carron 3/1, 90,000 gns 2-y-o, Gregorian filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 1m winner Glenall and 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Glenkitt. Dam unraced. Fifth of 9 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good to firm, 9/2) on debut. Off 12 months. First run for yard after leaving Michael Bell. Should have more to offer. Cost 90,000gns at the breeze-up; fair debut for Michael Bell last May and better expected.
2	2 2nd (2) (3.5/1 -5%) Woobay	3.5 3.5/1(-5%)	(2) Woobay 3.5/1, Better effort 19 months apart when third of 15 in novice event at Redcar (6f, good to soft, 18/1) on debut for this yard 19 days ago and entitled to come on for that. Third on both starts so far, the latest in April when returning from a 584-day absence.
3	6 3rd (6) (2/1 -45%) Maggie's Tern	2 2/1(-45%)	(6) Maggie's Tern 2/1, Should find a race on what she showed at 2 yrs (went close at Leicester over this trip second start) and easy to forgive comeback run on heavy ground. Best form on fast ground so poor reappearance run on soft best ignored; sets the standard.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 +45%) Bloomin Robbery	3 3/1(+45%)	(3) Bloomin Robbery 3/1, 125,000 gns yearling, Kodiac filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 6f Waady and 5f winner Hawaam. 20/1, seventh of 15 in novice event at Redcar (6f, good to soft) on debut 19 days ago, never nearer. Open to improvement. Kodiac filly; 20-1 when seventh in a 6f Redcar novice on debut; improvement needed.
5th	8 5th (8) (80/1 -142%) Wambamwigwam	80 80/1(-142%)	(8) Wambamwigwam 80/1, Sioux Nation filly. Dam 6f winner. Last of 6 in novice event at Hamilton (5f, good, 33/1) on debut 16 days ago. Beaten a long way when last of six on debut (5f); may do better over 6f; hard to fancy.
6th	7 6th (7) (33/1 +34%) Sweet Carboline	33 33/1(+34%)	(7) Sweet Carboline 33/1, Sioux Nation filly. Dam, 6f winner, half-sister to useful 7f-1½m winner (stayed 1¾m) Caliburn out of useful 7f/1m winner Enchanted Evening. Newcomer by Sioux Nation; first foal of a 6f winner; should improve for the run.
7th	4 7th (4) (125/1 -346%) Hold On Together	125 125/1(-346%)	(4) Hold On Together 125/1, Gustav Klimt filly. Half-sister to 1m-1¼m winner Warp Factor and 1m-9f winner Set In Stone, both useful. Dam maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to smart sprinter Mooneista. 40/1, last of 6 in maiden at this course (7.2f, good to firm) on debut 19 days ago. 40-1 when 16l last of seven in a 7f Ayr maiden on debut; may do better now at 6f.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 -33%) Genevieve	16 16/1(-33%)	(1) Genevieve 16/1, Orientor filly. Dam 5f winner. Looks stable number 1 on jockey bookings. By Orientor out of a winning 5f mare; likely to need the experience on her belated debut.

LTO Selection:

18:00 Ayr Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

After making her first start for new connections at Redcar, WOOBAY is entitled to come on plenty for that highly-promising placed effort, which was her first run in 584 days. Better ground may also suit being the daughter of Starspangledbanner and she is taken to get off the mark today. Loch Carron showed signs of ability on debut just over a year ago and has switched yards since. She must enter calculations along with Maggie's Tern, who is a major contender on the pick of her juvenile form.

MAGGIE'S TERN's comeback run in a heavy-ground handicap at Nottingham can be easily forgiven and she sets a clear standard on the pick of her 2-y-o form. Loch Carron showed ability on her sole run for Michael Bell 12 months ago and should have more to offer, while Bloomin Robbery offered something to work on at Redcar.

On her debut for Charlie Johnston, LOCH CARRON is taken to improve upon her only run as a juvenile and beat Maggie's Tern.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (12/1 +14%) St Andrew's Castle	12 12/1(+14%)	(7) St Andrew's Castle 12/1, Course winner. Latest win at Newcastle in March. 9/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 4 days ago, not ideally placed. Up in trip. Wins have been at 6f/7f; well beaten over 8.5f four days ago; longer trip not sure to suit.
2	1 2nd (1) (4.5/1 +10%) Berry Edge	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(1) Berry Edge 4.5/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Creditable 1½ lengths third of 8 to Royal Countess over C&D (good to firm) on reappearance 19 days ago. Likely to give a good account. Won off 1lb higher last term and worth considering after promising C&D comeback run.
3	8 3rd (8) (12/1 +0%) Coconut Bay	12 12/1(+0%)	(8) Coconut Bay 12/1, 9/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (9f, good) 8 days ago, left poorly placed. Having only fourth run on turf; needs to step up on last week's sixth at Musselburgh.
4	4 4th (4) (4/1 +43%) Havana Party	4 4/1(+43%)	(4) Havana Party 4/1, 15/2, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 4 days ago. Back up in trip. Well handicapped but need to see a bit more. Conditions suit and chance on his best form but mainly disappointing this year.
5th	10 5th (10) (20/1 -186%) Tafsir	20 20/1(-186%)	(10) Tafsir 20/1, Good second of 5 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 4/1) 14 days ago, just failing. Can make presence felt again. 0-11; has a chance if reproducing her two good runs over this trip at Newcastle this month.
6th	2 6th (2) (4.5/1 +50%) Graces Quest	4.5 4.5/1(+50%)	(2) Graces Quest 4.5/1, Never involved in a very competitive Hamilton handicap 9 days ago but fair fourth over this C&D prior to that and should play a part back in these slightly calmer waters. Her three wins have been over 1m3f plus, but good fourth over C&D on reappearance; player.
7th	6 7th (6) (7.5/1 +25%) Bulls Aye	7.5 7.5/1(+25%)	(6) Bulls Aye 7.5/1, Tricky customer but he has run well to be placed on 3 of last 4 starts. Losing run mounting up, though. Only win in 17 Flat runs was in September 2020; in fair form recently; each-way chance.
8th	9 8th (9) (8.5/1 -21%) Royal Countess	8.5 8.5/1(-21%)	(9) Royal Countess 8.5/1, Third C&D success of her career when seeing off stablemate Flying Moon and 3 more of today's rivals on her reappearance 19 days ago. Likely to remain very competitive up 4lb. First win since 2021 over C&D last time (several of these behind her); up 4lb; chance.
9th	3 9th (3) (22/1 -57%) My Macho Man	22 22/1(-57%)	(3) My Macho Man 22/1, Fit from hurdling, 3½ lengths fifth of 8 to Royal Countess (Flying Moon second, Berry Edge third, Graces Quest fourth) in C&D handicap (good to firm) 19 days ago. Should get a bit closer on the revised terms. Unexposed on the Flat; fair fifth but behind several of today's rivals over C&D last time.
10th	5 10th (5) (5.5/1 -57%) Flying Moon	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(5) Flying Moon 5.5/1, Three-time C&D winner. Creditable length second of 8 to Royal Countess on C&D reappearance (good to firm) 19 days ago. Considered. Five-time course winner; good second over C&D after a break last time; up a pound; chance.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

In an interesting handicap it could be folly to ignore the chances of recent second Tafsir, C&D winner Royal Countess or her stable companion Flying Moon, with all three entitled to have a say in the finish. However, top-weight BERRY EDGE could be deemed unlucky when third here last month after being denied a clear run and if he gets the run of the race on this occasion, he may make amends.

FLYING MOON is taken to turn around recent C&D form with stablemate Royal Countess and land a fourth C&D success of his career. Berry Edge is also closely matched with that pair on C&D form last time and is another unlikely to be too far away.

In a tricky race FLYING MOON, who won three on the trot over C&D last year, is taken to beat the in-form maiden Tafsir.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (12/1 +40%) Walking On Clouds	12 12/1(+40%)	(7) Walking On Clouds 12/1, 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Southwell in February. 9/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft) 23 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Has work to do. Five sprint wins on AW for new yard; turf mark has suffered; well held on grass latest.
2	5 2nd (5) (16/1 +11%) Venturous	16 16/1(+11%)	(5) Venturous 16/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 11 in minor event (50/1) at Newcastle (6f) 46 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Retained plenty of ability on AW over the winter but infrequent winner on turf these days.
3	4 3rd (4) (2.5/1 +29%) Abduction	2.5 2.5/1(+29%)	(4) Abduction 2.5/1, Course winner. 6/1, good second of 15 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 23 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Latest 2 wins over 7f but useful form dropped to 5f latest; can go well back over 6f.
4	2 4th (2) (9/1 -29%) Significantly	9 9/1(-29%)	(2) Significantly 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Hooded for 1st time, below form eighth of 15 in handicap at Catterick (5f, soft, 14/1). Off 7 months. Potentially on a good mark starting out for an in-form yard. High-class 3yo at 5f/6f; lost his way in 2022; now 16lb lower than last spring; new yard.
5th	3 5th (3) (4.5/1 -29%) Soldier's Minute	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(3) Soldier's Minute 4.5/1, Gave the firm impression he's on the way back after a low-key start to the year when thirteenth of 21 in handicap (28/1) at York (6f, firm) 6 days ago. Can make presence felt. Close 2nd in Silver Cup here in 2021; well handicapped; troubled run at York last week.
6th	8 6th (8) (7/1 -75%) Fast And Loose	7 7/1(-75%)	(8) Fast And Loose 7/1, Promising sort. Shaped as if better for the run when 4¾ lengths third of 8 to Woven in handicap (7/1) at Doncaster (6f, heavy) 17 days ago. Blinkers back on. Has to be taken seriously. Progressive at 6f in 2022; no match for Woven on return (soft); good ground suits.
7th	1 7th (1) (2.75/1 +39%) Woven	2.75 2.75/1(+39%)	(1) Woven 2.75/1, Won 8-runner handicap (7/2) at Doncaster (6f, heavy) on return 17 days ago. Can give a good account. Very infrequent winner; back up 5lb for successful return when soft ground probably helped.
8th	6 8th (6) (18/1 -50%) Shalaa Asker	18 18/1(-50%)	(6) Shalaa Asker 18/1, 3 wins from 9 runs this year. Latest win at Chelmsford City in April. 20/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 23 days ago. Turf mark gone up in tandem with AW one and now 11lb higher than latest 6f turf defeat.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Ayr Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

ABDUCTION has done well since joining his current yard and looks worth chancing after a near-miss from the same mark at Musselburgh last month. The gelding is versatile regarding the trip and, with the forecast going unlikely to pose any problems, a bold showing can be expected. Woven has to be respected after his comfortable success at Doncaster 17 days ago, but Fast And Loose (third) is not without hope of reversing that form on the revised terms.

FAST AND LOOSE looks the type to make a better 4-y-o and shaped as if better for the run after 7 months off when third behind Woven at Doncaster. He's taken to reverse the placings on 6 lb better terms. Soldier's Minute caught the eye at York last week and is another to consider.

Fast And Loose is likely to go well but ABDUCTION has scope as a sprinter for this yard and is preferred.

19:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (3.5/1 -75%) One Last Hug	3.5 3.5/1(-75%)	(4) One Last Hug 3.5/1, Two wins from 46 Flat runs. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this course (6f, good, 4/1) 15 days ago. Can give a good account. Landed a gamble over 6f here last time; big player again if he gets a good pace back at 5f.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/1 +0%) Stay Smart	7 7/1(+0%)	(1) Stay Smart 7/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Blinkered for 1st time, 6¾ lengths eighth of 12 to One Last Hug in handicap at this course (6f, good, 14/1) 15 days ago, going off too hard. Chance on old form. His last win was over two years ago and has been well held in three runs this season.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.88/1 +53%) Bonito Cavalo	1.88 1.88/1(+53%)	(3) Bonito Cavalo 1.88/1, Below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 11/1) 4 days ago. Nine-race maiden who has not got involved in two runs this term; others more convincing.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 +0%) Nodsasgoodasawink	18 18/1(+0%)	(5) Nodsasgoodasawink 18/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. 25/1, 10¾ lengths eleventh of 12 to One Last Hug in handicap at this course (6f, good) 15 days ago. Her last win was in August 2021 and has been unplaced in last 13 starts.
5th	2 5th (2) (2/1 +11%) Sosallycanwait	2 2/1(+11%)	(2) Sosallycanwait 2/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Creditable fifth of 19 in handicap (22/1) at Naas (5f, good) 17 days ago. Shortlist material. 0-18 but she ran well in big field at Naas last time and has possibilities.
6th	7 6th (7) (100/1 -300%) Smooth Red	100 100/1(-300%)	(7) Smooth Red 100/1, Last of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Musselburgh (7.2f, good) 8 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Blinkered for 1st time. Seven-race maiden who was tailed off at Musselburgh last week and has a lot to prove.
7th	6 7th (6) (16/1 -33%) Danah Star	16 16/1(-33%)	(6) Danah Star 16/1, 25/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 18 days ago, finding little. Blinkers back on. Others more persuasive. 16-race maiden who hasn't offered much in three runs for her new yard this spring.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

ONE LAST HUG had a number of these in behind him when winning here 15 days ago and Jim Goldie's charge appeals as the one to beat once more, despite a subsequent 4lb rise in the handicap. Sosallycanwait has been running well in defeat recently and she's respected in search of a first career success, while Bonito Cavalo is another with the capacity to go well under optimum conditions.

SOSALLYCANWAIT is taken to finally break her duck having stepped up on her come back run when fifth in a big field at Naas. One Last Hug looked better than ever when scoring here 2 weeks ago so is the obvious threat.

Most of these have plenty to prove but ONE LAST HUG landed a gamble here last time and may well be able to strike again back in trip.

1	2 1st (2) (4/1 +33%) Espressoo	4 4/1(+33%)	(2) Espressoo 4/1, C&D winner. 10/3, ninth of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft), possibly amiss. Off 7 months. Not taken lightly. Won C&D maiden and 7f AW handicap before best form in defeat at York in May; now 2lb lower.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 -17%) Manigordo	7 7/1(-17%)	(3) Manigordo 7/1, Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap (25/1) at Musselburgh (7.2f, soft) 23 days ago. Can give a good account. Two 7f wins in August (good); comes to hand early but probably high in weights now.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/1 -29%) Touchwood	11 11/1(-29%)	(5) Touchwood 11/1, 12/1, good third of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.2f, good) 8 days ago. Both wins at 6f but has plenty of 7f form; close 3rd on 2nd run for this yard; thereabouts.
4	7 4th (7) (5/1 -11%) Judgment Call	5 5/1(-11%)	(7) Judgment Call 5/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 5/2) 19 days ago, always holding on. Player. Won 3 of last 6 runs at 7f; on career-high mark up in grade but can give it a good shot.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 -33%) How Impressive	10 10/1(-33%)	(4) How Impressive 10/1, 4/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 17 days ago, slowly away. Useful 7f handicap form on AW in April; soft going may not have suited on turf debut since.
6th	1 6th (1) (3.6/1 +20%) Darkness	3.6 3.6/1(+20%)	(1) Darkness 3.6/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Below form fourteenth of 22 in handicap at Ascot (7f, soft, 25/1) 10 days ago. Others more persuasive. Ran flat in recent 7f Ascot handicap; chance on previous Newmarket 4th now down in grade.
7th	6 7th (6) (16/1 +11%) Black Friday	16 16/1(+11%)	(6) Black Friday 16/1, Course winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable second of 5 in handicap at this course (6f, good, 7/2) 15 days ago. Back up in trip. 7f winner in 2019; five wins since at sprint trips; others usually stronger at this trip.
8th	8 8th (8) (3.5/1 -5%) Classy Al	3.5 3.5/1(-5%)	(8) Classy Al 3.5/1, C&D winner. 9/2, creditable 1¼ lengths third of 7 to Judgment Call in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 19 days ago, conceding first run. Expected to be bang there. Unexposed at 7f; good 3rd over C&D on reappearance; may do better yet at the trip.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Ayr Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

This can go the way of TOUCHWOOD, who ran a fine race on his second start for new connections at Musselburgh and, with improvement possible, he may be able to gain a first success since October 2021. A comfortable winner over C&D last time out, Judgment Call should be able to uphold form with fellow course specialist Classy Al (third), while Manigordo is another with the form to get involved.

CLASSY AL shaped better than the bare result when third behind Judgment Call over C&D on his return and is taken to come out on top this time on 4 lb better terms. The latter named is a big threat however, with Espressoo not taken lightly either on seasonal bow.

It didn't work out for DARKNESS in the Victoria Cup but he has good claims on his fourth in a higher grade at Newmarket previously.

1	1 1st (1) (3/1 +0%) Novak	3 3/1(+0%)	(1) Novak 3/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022 but knocking on the door with 3 runner-up efforts this spring, the latest over C&D (good to firm) 19 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Not the best of strike-rates but in good form (2nd over C&D last time); each-way chance.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 +50%) Rory	6 6/1(+50%)	(4) Rory 6/1, Unreliable type. Course winner. Last of 6 in handicap (15/2) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 4 days ago. Races beyond a sprint trip for the first time here. Habitual slow starter; tries 7f for first time with cheekpieces left off; not well drawn.
3	2 3rd (2) (8.5/1 -55%) Fiftyshadesofred	8.5 8.5/1(-55%)	(2) Fiftyshadesofred 8.5/1, Showed benefit of reappearance run when creditable third of 8 at Chelmsford (7f) last month but comfortably held back on turf at Wetherby (1m) last week. First-time hood reached for on the back of that. Capable but inconsistent; on a good mark; down in trip with a hood on for first time.
4	8 4th (8) (3/1 +40%) Merricourt	3 3/1(+40%)	(8) Merricourt 3/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Back to form when close second of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (2f, good, 6/1) 8 days ago. Obvious chance off the same mark. Won over C&D in April 2022; not won since; well treated and good run when second last week.
5th	9 5th (9) (16/1 -60%) Oriental Lilly	16 16/1(-60%)	(9) Oriental Lilly 16/1, C&D winner. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. Good fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (7f, 11/1) 14 days ago. Has won 10 of her 102 races; good fourth on the AW last time but on a long losing run.
6th	5 6th (5) (7.5/1 -15%) Stalingrad	7.5 7.5/1(-15%)	(5) Stalingrad 7.5/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. 11/2, fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (6f) 12 days ago. Back up in trip. 20-race maiden who has been placed 12 times; quite interesting on second run at 7f.
7th	7 7th (7) (14/1 +13%) Monhammer	14 14/1(+13%)	(7) Monhammer 14/1, C&D winner. 14/1, last of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (7f, good to soft) on reappearance 18 days ago. Needs to have come a lot. Dual 7f winner last season; should improve for his reappearance run; interesting contender.
8th	6 8th (6) (25/1 -456%) Turbo Command	25 25/1(-456%)	(6) Turbo Command 25/1, Successful twice over 7f at Southwell this year, including on latest start 5 weeks ago. All wins on AW but he does have form on turf. Has won two of his last three races on the AW; yet to win on turf but not ruled out.
9th	3 9th (3) (5.5/1 +66%) Tangled	5.5 5.5/1(+66%)	(3) Tangled 5.5/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Last of 5 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm, 15/2) on reappearance 19 days ago, inadequate test. Should strip fitter for the run and this trip more suitable. Blinkers on first time. Not the force of old; on a good mark but on a long losing run and blinkers now tried.
10th	10 10th (10) (150/1 -50%) Royal Princess	150 150/1(-50%)	(10) Royal Princess 150/1, Little form of worth in a handful of starts. Been off for 7 months. Well beaten all starts; would be a surprise winner..

LTO Selection:

20:30 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Only narrowly denied in a 0-75 contest at Musselburgh eight days ago, MERRICOURT is able to compete from an unchanged mark and a similar performance could see him go one better now dropped in class. Fellow class dropper Novak merits respect, while Turbo Command, who has been in good form on the all-weather recently, remains of interest back on the grass. Monhammer is only 1lb higher than when successful over C&D in September and he should not be underestimated either.

Iain Jardine looks to hold a strong hand, with NOVAK narrowly perferred to last Monday's Musselburgh runner-up Merricourt. Best of the rest might be Turbo Command, who has won twice on AW this year.

The suggestion is MONHAMMER, who goes well here and should improve markedly on his below-par reappearance run.

LTO Selection:

21:00 Ayr Handicap (Class 6) 13f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Baez could be of interest and is worth a market check ahead of her first start for new connections. She should figure if they can bring her back to her best, and she could prove the biggest danger to PARAMARIBO. The selection was a good second over further here eight days ago, despite being denied a clear run, and he can go one better now off the same mark. Lawmans Blis also arrives after a good run last time out and he could also get into the mix.

PARAMARIBO found the line coming just too soon at Musselburgh last week and is selected to go one better off the same mark now. The class-dropping Two Auld Pals is second choice ahead of Lawmans Blis.

Preference is for LAWMANS BLIS (nap), who ran well on AW three weeks ago and is attractively weighted on some of last year's turf form.
