1	9 1st (9) (9/2 +44%) Wobwobwob		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(9) Wobwobwob 9/2, 5/1 and visored for 1st time, respectable third of 18 in handicap at Ripon (6f, good) 35 days ago. Claims will be enhanced if the ground becomes testing. Stays further but return to 6f was no inconvenience when 3rd at Ripon latest; solid chance.
2	4 2nd (4) (33/1 -18%) Tinto		33 33/1(-18%)																															(4) Tinto 33/1, Latest win at Redcar in August. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (11/2) at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 22 days ago, left poorly placed. Looks vulnerable. Fair efforts in 2021 Silver Cup and 2022 Gold Cup; ended losing run in August; more needed.
3	11 3rd (11) (20/1 +20%) Admiral D		20 20/1(+20%)																															(11) Admiral D 20/1, Unreliable type. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Pontefract (6f, good) 90 days ago. Others look stronger. Excelled himself when 7th in the 2022 Gold Cup when 10lb higher; fairly quiet this year.
4	13 4th (13) (10/1 +38%) Bernardo O'reilly		10 10/1(+38%)																															(13) Bernardo O'reilly 10/1, Latest win at Newbury in April. 16/1, bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 37 days ago, merely closing up late. He's the sort that needs everything to drop right and is probably worth taking on. Third in this race last year when D Tudhope rode; often meets trouble but capable.
5th	6 5th (6) (33/1 +18%) Snazzy Jazzy		33 33/1(+18%)																															(6) Snazzy Jazzy 33/1, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. 13/8, below form third of 7 in claimer at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 40 days ago. Winner of this race in 2018 but it will be a surprise if he's able to roll back the years on debut for new yard. Won this in 2018; useful at 6f/7f last June; below best in 2023, 3rd in claimer latest.
6th	7 6th (7) (25/1 -79%) Woven		25 25/1(-79%)																															(7) Woven 25/1, Latest win at Doncaster in May. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, heavy, 11/2) 49 days ago. Others make more appeal from a win point of view. Second in this race last year; now 4lb higher after wide-margin win on reappearance.
7th	22 7th (22) (100/1 -52%) Never Dark		100 100/1(-52%)																															(22) Never Dark 100/1, Two wins from 5 runs this year, the latest at Hamilton in August. Ninth of 14 in handicap (18/1) at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. Opposable under a penalty. Close 4th in 2021 Bronze Cup; won latest turf start over 5f; rare to see him over 6f now.
8th	10 8th (10) (16/1 +0%) Monsieur Kodi		16 16/1(+0%)																															(10) Monsieur Kodi 16/1, C&D winner. Six wins from 22 Flat runs. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. 11/1, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 16 days ago. Place possibilities. Improved in 2023, latest win at Goodwood in August; beaten off this career-high mark since.
9th	21 9th (21) (10/1 +17%) Aplomb		10 10/1(+17%)																															(21) Aplomb 10/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. 9/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago, running on late. Sixth in this last year (off 8 lb higher) and looks a big player. In form; needs to show he can fare better than in two previous attempts in this race.
10th	15 10th (15) (33/1 +0%) Dream For Gold		33 33/1(+0%)																															(15) Dream For Gold 33/1, Fifteenth of 17 in handicap at York (5f, good, 9/1) 13 days ago and he needs to bounce back in a major way. Sole win in 5f AW novice; two close calls over 6f this summer; not kept up good work since.
11th	14 11th (14) (12/1 +25%) Cairn Gorm		12 12/1(+25%)																															(14) Cairn Gorm 12/1, Latest win at York in July. Bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm, 7/2) 18 days ago, doing too much too soon. Jim Crowley a good booking and he's a live each-way candidate. Beat big field at York in July; ought to be well treated back up 4lb; lesser effort since.
12th	18 12th (18) (16/1 -33%) Danzan		16 16/1(-33%)																															(18) Danzan 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Thirsk in June. 11/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Yard has won 2 of the last 4 runnings of this and he could have a part to play. Excellent runs in the last two runnings of the Bronze Cup, 3rd then won; on the premises.
13th	16 13th (16) (22/1 +33%) Illusionist		22 22/1(+33%)																															(16) Illusionist 22/1, 7/1, bit below form third of 7 in handicap at Haydock (6f, heavy) 48 days ago. Lurking on a handy mark and dangerous to completely discount. Close 4th in the Gold Cup Trial over C&D in July; not seen to best advantage since.
14th	24 14th (24) (11/1 -29%) Jump The Gun		11 11/1(-29%)																															(24) Jump The Gun 11/1, Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, neck second of 13 to Rathbone in handicap (14/1) at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 9 days ago, clear of rest. Good fifth in this race last year off a 10 lb higher mark and looks primed for another big run. Troubled run when 5th in this race last year; out of sorts in 2023 but ran well last week.
15th	20 15th (20) (18/1 +28%) Fast And Loose		18 18/1(+28%)																															(20) Fast And Loose 18/1, 11/2, last of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Blinkers back on and he has something to find on form. Yet to win a handicap but headed only close home in the Bronze Cup in 2022; not ruled out.
16th	3 16th (3) (11/1 +31%) Call Me Ginger		11 11/1(+31%)																															(3) Call Me Ginger 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Ascot in September. 11/2, below form eighth of 22 in handicap at Doncaster (5.6f, good to soft) 7 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Winner of the Bronze Cup at this meeting in 2021 and couldn't rule out, despite the 8 lb penalty. Won Bronze Cup here in 2021; back to form with 2 wins this month; off day last week.
17th	19 17th (19) (12/1 -50%) Rathbone		12 12/1(-50%)																															(19) Rathbone 12/1, 10/1, improved on recent efforts to win 13-runner handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to soft) 9 days ago by neck from Jump The Gun, always holding on. Clearly back in the groove but he has struggled in each of the last 4 runnings of this race. No great shakes in last four runnings but won latest two starts with something to spare.
18th	1 18th (1) (33/1 +0%) Bergerac		33 33/1(+0%)																															(1) Bergerac 33/1, 16/1, sixteenth of 20 in handicap at York (5.4f, good to firm) 31 days ago. His season has been something of a washout to this point and it's hard to envisage him turning things around in this competitive contest. Tenacious 6th in the Gold Cup last year; now 8lb lower after having excuses this year.
19th	2 19th (2) (28/1 +0%) Lucky Man		28 28/1(+0%)																															(2) Lucky Man 28/1, Eighth of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 10/1) 23 days ago. Good fourth in the Gold Cup at this meeting 12 months ago but done little this season to suggest that he's about to reproduce that level of form anytime soon. Excellent 4th in the Gold Cup last September; 6lb lower now after low-key season.
20th	5 20th (5) (17/2 +0%) Gulliver		8.5 17/2(+0%)																															(5) Gulliver 17/2, Won 14-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 6/1) 10 days ago, overcoming pace bias. Remains on a very attractive mark under a penalty and a bold show is anticipated. Has contested the last 4 runnings of the Gold Cup at this meeting, his best effort when third in the 2019 renewal. Strong form over C&D and in valuable 6f handicaps; sprung back to life on AW this month.
21st	8 21st (8) (20/1 -11%) Abduction		20 20/1(-11%)																															(8) Abduction 20/1, Winner here in August. 12/1, bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap at Ascot (7f, firm) 14 days ago, not having run of race. Not without each-way hope. Three most recent wins over 7f here; needs to improve on recent 6f attempts.
22nd	12 22nd (12) (80/1 -60%) Bay Breeze		80 80/1(-60%)																															(12) Bay Breeze 80/1, Three wins from 11 runs this year, the latest at Ripon in August. Eleventh of 12 in handicap (20/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Readily passed over. Three 6f wins this year but has beaten a total of one rival on last two starts.
23rd	23 23rd (23) (66/1 -100%) Be Proud		66 66/1(-100%)																															(23) Be Proud 66/1, Course winner. Latest win at Doncaster in July. Twelfth of 13 in handicap (33/1) at Newcastle (5f) 23 days ago. Looks up against it. Good 2nd in the 2021 Bronze Cup; high in weights after two July wins; below best latest.
24th	25 24th (25) (50/1 -52%) Another Baar		50 50/1(-52%)																															(25) Another Baar 50/1, Three wins from 11 runs this year. 9/2, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Unlikely to disgrace himself but likely to find a few too good all the same. Three wins at 6f and 5f this year; mostly struggled since mark went into the 80s.
25th	17 25th (17) (80/1 -60%) Punchbowl Flyer		80 80/1(-60%)																															(17) Punchbowl Flyer 80/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 28/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Others table more compelling claims. Excels on good to soft and slower; front-runs; well handicapped; rail draw could be a plus.

LTO Selection:

14:25 Ayr Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

In another wide-open renewal, a chance can be taken on WOVEN, who was runner-up in this race last year off 4lb lower. The seven-year-old has competed over 7f the last twice and he now returns to this sprinting distance, which could spark him back to form in order to go close. Call Me Ginger has won two out of his last three starts and, in his current form, he is difficult to dismiss. Others to note are Bernardo O'Reilly and the hat-trick seeking Rathbone.

APLOMB is fresher than most entering this stage of the season and, having produced two eye-catching efforts since returning from a break last month, he makes plenty of appeal off a good mark and with conditions to suit. Jump The Gun, who was just ahead of Aplomb in this race last year, looks set for another bold show after returning to form at Doncaster where he was just touched off by the re-opposing Rathbone. Iain Jardine's charge is feared most ahead of Gulliver and Wobwobwob.

This should be a thorough test at the trip which will suit WOBWOBWOB who stays further but ran so well back over 6f in August.

1	8 1st (8) (10/1 +80%) Prime Art		10 10/1(+80%)																															(8) Prime Art 10/1, Won 13-runner maiden at Naas (5.9f, good to soft, 15/2) 9 days ago, responding well. Boasts some good form (chased home Navassa Island on debut) and could have more to offer. Irish maiden winner who is open to further improvement but needs a sizeable step forward.
2	4 2nd (4) (5.5/1 -10%) Great Generation		5.5 5.5/1(-10%)																															(4) Great Generation 5.5/1, Maintained her unbeaten record in the style of a useful prospect at Chester (6f) 3 weeks ago, again proving strong right to the line. Bred for further but this looks her trip now and she can do better again. 2-2 and it remains to be seen where her limitations lie; respected now up in grade.
3	6 3rd (6) (4.5/1 +10%) Navassa Island		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(6) Navassa Island 4.5/1, Off the mark in 6f Curragh maiden 6 weeks ago, well drawn the way it went and taking full advantage. That form looks good (second and third won next time) and she's one to consider back up in grade. Group 3 runner-up on debut; won Curragh maiden last time and might not be far away.
4	7 4th (7) (4/1 -14%) Pretty Crystal		4 4/1(-14%)																															(7) Pretty Crystal 4/1, Winning start in 6f Ripon fillies' novice and good efforts in the Albany, Princess Margaret and Prestige since (good form behind Darnation). Yard do well in this and she's one to note back over 6f. Has run well in Group 3 races and could benefit from this drop back to 6f; possible player.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/4 +0%) Raqiya		2.25 9/4(+0%)																															(9) Raqiya 9/4, Has made a very good start, easily winning 6f Salisbury and Haydock fillies' novices the last twice. More to come, well worth her place in this grade, and leading claims. Easy novice wins the last twice and she could take this rise in grade in her stride.
6th	3 6th (3) (100/1 -25%) Exponista		100 100/1(-25%)																															(3) Exponista 100/1, Belied market weakness to get off the mark after 12 weeks off in 6f Nottingham fillies' maiden last month, putting her experience to good use. Tons more needed upped to this grade but she's unexposed from a good sprinting family and could outrun her odds. Made all in Nottingham maiden on third start; others have far more substance to their form.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/2 +0%) Dorothy Lawrence		5.5 11/2(+0%)																															(2) Dorothy Lawrence 11/2, Won 5f maiden here in July and good efforts up in grade over 6f since, denied only late on after looking like she'd burnt them off at Salisbury last time. Looks all about speed and might struggle to make all in this. Has run well in Group races the last twice and this front-runner can make another bold bid.
8th	1 8th (1) (40/1 +39%) Bellarchi		40 40/1(+39%)																															(1) Bellarchi 40/1, Completed a hat-trick with a comfortable success at Hamilton (6f). Fair run in nursery at Doncaster (6.5f, good to soft) 9 days ago but more needed still up in class now. Has done well in nurseries but she has something to find in today's company.
9th	5 9th (5) (40/1 -43%) Imperiality		40 40/1(-43%)																															(5) Imperiality 40/1, Much improved after a break as she landed 6f Hamilton maiden 12 weeks ago. Well bred and could do better again for all she has plenty to find in this grade. Made all at Hamilton on third start but may well be vulnerable now upped in grade.

15:00 Ayr Group 3 (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Raqiya has shown Group-race potential in registering bloodless victories at Salisbury and Haydock, but PRETTY CRYSTAL has the required form in the book at this level. Since making a successful start to her career at Ripon, the daughter of Dubawi has acquitted herself really well in three Group 3 contests and she can give Richard Fahey his third victory in this race in the past four renewals. Dorothy Lawrence proved her Lowther fourth was no fluke when pipped in the Dick Poole, while Navassa Island is the pick of the Irish raiders.

RAQIYA could be the potential class act here after impressive wins at Salisbury and Haydock and she can come out on top. Pretty Crystal has been holding her own in top fillies' contests and is one to note for Richard Fahey, who has won 2 of the last 3 runnings of this. Exponista could outrun big odds.

Dorothy Lawrence sets a good form standard but RAQIYA is an exciting prospect having posted easy novice wins the last twice.

1	22 1st (22) (8/1 +11%) Significantly		8 8/1(+11%)																															(22) Significantly 8/1, Resumed winning ways for current yard at Haydock in July and has continued in excellent form, just failing in Portland at Doncaster a week ago. Merits serious consideration off an unchanged mark. Back to form for new yard; fair chance on the back of last week's near miss at Doncaster.
2	13 2nd (13) (16/1 -14%) Ramazan		16 16/1(-14%)																															(13) Ramazan 16/1, Scored at Haydock (7f) in July and resumed his progress to land 7f handicap at Chepstow 44 days ago. Up another 3 lb but he's thriving so remains one to consider back at 6f. On the up over 7f this summer; not fully exposed but drop back to 6f not sure to suit.
3	8 3rd (8) (11/1 +67%) Gweedore		11 11/1(+67%)																															(8) Gweedore 11/1, Likeable type who won over 7f at Doncaster and Newmarket this summer. Rare below-par efforts on his last two runs however so needs to bounce back. Been a star for connections but hard to believe he's well enough treated on first 6f run.
4	12 4th (12) (12/1 +14%) Albasheer		12 12/1(+14%)																															(12) Albasheer 12/1, Dead-heated in 6f handicap at York (with Summerghand) before posting a good eighth of 22 at the Curragh 13 days ago. Saddles 5 lb penalty but can go well again. Bubbling away prior to York win last month (dead-heated); this test could suit him well.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 +44%) Montassib		10 10/1(+44%)																															(6) Montassib 10/1, Scored at Newmarket (7f) in May and got back on track when eighth of 25 in International at Ascot (7f, good to soft) 56 days ago. Possibilities off a 1 lb lower mark. First 6f run since debut but some of this year's 7f efforts stack up well; one to consider.
6th	3 6th (3) (12/1 +0%) Fast Response		12 12/1(+0%)																															(3) Fast Response 12/1, Signed off last term with 6f Doncaster listed success and just as good this term, runner-up in listed race at Chester (6.1f, heavy) 48 days ago. Can't be ruled out back in handicap now. Mudlark who was flourishing last autumn; good 2nd in Listed event latest; rain would help.
7th	2 7th (2) (17/2 +39%) Rohaan		8.5 17/2(+39%)																															(2) Rohaan 17/2, Smart 6f winner at his best but yet to hit top form this term, albeit not disgraced when tenth in Sprint Cup at Haydock 14 days ago. Enters calculations back in handicap company. Powers have looked on the wane this year but a strongly run 6f suits ideally; could revive.
8th	18 8th (18) (14/1 +0%) Mr Wagyu		14 14/1(+0%)																															(18) Mr Wagyu 14/1, C&D winner who has also finished fifth and third in the past two runnings of this. Back on track when third of 22 at the Curragh (6f) 13 days ago so he ought to be in the shake-up once more. Drawn a blank this year but he's run well in several top sprints; each-way claims again.
9th	16 9th (16) (18/1 +0%) Lethal Levi		18 18/1(+0%)																															(16) Lethal Levi 18/1, Yet to score this term but has posted some good efforts in defeat, fourth of 12 in 6.5f Doncaster handicap 8 days ago. Visor goes on and can make his presence felt again. Drawn a blank this year but retains ability; visor given a shot today; not without hope.
10th	14 10th (14) (12/1 +14%) Bielsa		12 12/1(+14%)																															(14) Bielsa 12/1, 2021 winner of this who has got right back to his best this term, third of 27 in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time having also scored at York in the spring. Must enter calculations for yard which has a fine record in this contest. Won this in 2021 off 1lb lower; as good as ever this year; capable of another big run.
11th	7 11th (7) (8/1 +0%) Orazio		8 8/1(+0%)																															(7) Orazio 8/1, Low-mileage 4-y-o who looked a sprinter going places when landing 6f handicaps at Newmarket and Ascot during the spring. Only eighteenth of 27 in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time but remains handily weighted and shouldn't be written off after a break. Looked a star in the making in the spring; beaten fav in major handicaps since; contender.
12th	19 12th (19) (14/1 -27%) Aleezdancer		14 14/1(-27%)																															(19) Aleezdancer 14/1, Kickstarted 2023 with success in the mud at Doncaster and back on form under similar conditions when fifth of 27 in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood last time. Not ruled out if conditions turn very testing. Ran a stormer from a bad draw in the Stewards' Cup; chance increased by any rain.
13th	25 13th (25) (80/1 -60%) It Just Takes Time		80 80/1(-60%)																															(25) It Just Takes Time 80/1, Gained his second success of 2023 at Ripon in June but he arrives below form, only sixth at Doncaster 8 days ago. Others are preferred. Handicapper firmly on top since his Ripon win in June.
14th	9 14th (9) (33/1 -50%) Aberama Gold		33 33/1(-50%)																															(9) Aberama Gold 33/1, Dual winner for Keith Dalgleish in June and has taken his form to another level for his new yard with further 6f success at York and in Stewards' Cup at Goodwood. Well held in Portland at Doncaster last time but no surprise to see this C&D scorer get back in the mix. Only 5lb higher than for his decisive Stewards' Cup win but he's run poorly twice since.
15th	24 15th (24) (80/1 -21%) Lequinto		80 80/1(-21%)																															(24) Lequinto 80/1, Quirky sort but he scored at Windsor in June and has posted solid efforts in defeat at Windsor and Wolverhampton since. This demands more, however. Better than ever this year but this looks far too competitive.
16th	10 16th (10) (50/1 -25%) Escobar		50 50/1(-25%)																															(10) Escobar 50/1, Smart performance when winning at Ascot (7f) last October. Yet to scale same heights this season though and only 20th in International at Ascot 14 days ago. Others appeal more. Came into the race in much better form when 8th last year; tough going this time round.
17th	20 17th (20) (11/1 +39%) Probe		11 11/1(+39%)																															(20) Probe 11/1, Resurgent for his new yard when a 6f winner at Wolverhampton and Newmaket in the spring. Off the track since coming in 12th in Bunbury Cup on July course 70 days ago but he goes well fresh so shouldn't be underestimated. Spring form brings him right into it; levelled off since but conditions should suit.
18th	4 18th (4) (18/1 -13%) Northern Express		18 18/1(-13%)																															(4) Northern Express 18/1, Consistent sort who has bagged Thirsk Hunt Cup and 7f York handicap this term. Good fifth of 19 back at York last time and this free-going sort is very much one for the shortlist dropped in trip. Good progress this year but just a nagging concern he'll get going too late dropped to 6f.
19th	11 19th (11) (50/1 +38%) Gorak		50 50/1(+38%)																															(11) Gorak 50/1, Twice a winner in 7f handicaps this spring. Not so good on his last two starts though, coming in last of nine in 6f listed race at Newmarket 28 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Handicapper firmly in command since his close 4th in a Haydock Group 3 in June.
20th	23 20th (23) (80/1 -60%) Mondammej		80 80/1(-60%)																															(23) Mondammej 80/1, Useful gelding at his best but is on a lengthy losing run and has been below form in recent outings too. It's easy to look elsewhere. Retains some ability but debatable he's in the form needed to take this.
21st	17 21st (17) (50/1 -127%) Magical Spirit		50 50/1(-127%)																															(17) Magical Spirit 50/1, Landed the Ayr Silver Cup in 2020 and arrives in decent nick this time around, sixth of 15 to Aberama Gold at York (6f) 56 days ago. No forlorn hope off an easing mark for yard with an excellent record here. 2020 Silver Cup winner; in good heart in spring; can go well but vulnerable for the win.
22nd	5 22nd (5) (40/1 +0%) Desert Cop		40 40/1(+0%)																															(5) Desert Cop 40/1, Posted a smart effort to win a valuable conditions race at Newcastle (6f, AW) on Good Friday and also a good sixth in King's Stand at Royal Ascot. Well below par on his last two runs however so has something to prove. Case can be made on this year's best but finishing effort was tame at York two weeks ago.
23rd	21 23rd (21) (28/1 -12%) Paws For Thought		28 28/1(-12%)																															(21) Paws For Thought 28/1, Rattled off a hat-trick of 6f/7f handicaps wins in the summer. Poorly drawn when eighth in handicap at Chester (5.5f) 21 days ago and is the sort to bounce back. Reeled off a hat-trick after wind surgery; excuses the last twice; should outrun his odds.
24th	1 24th (1) (10/1 -11%) Summerghand		10 10/1(-11%)																															(1) Summerghand 10/1, A superb servant to connections who has got right back on song of late, dead-heating at York before posting a very good fourth of 22 at the Curragh (6f) when not enjoying the clearest of passages. Took this 12 monhs ago and he's a big player once more. Last year's winner retains his ability but defying top weight will demand a huge effort.

15:35 Ayr Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

SIGNIFICANTLY confirmed his well-being when a short-head second in the Portland at Doncaster a week ago. Off the same mark here, the five-year-old could go one better with the benefit of an extra half a furlong. Orazio failed to fire on the heavy going in the Stewards' Cup last time but is a big player based on his promising effort in the Wokingham the time before. Magical Spirit won the Silver Cup here in 2020 and it would be no surprise to see him make the frame now back at this venue, while Aleezdancer is another to note following an eye-catching effort in the Stewards' Cup on his most recent outing. The shortlist is completed by the previous winners Bielsa and Summerghand.

A superb renewal of the Ayr Gold Cup and once more it could go the way of David O'Meara's most likeable veteran SUMMERGHAND who shows absolutely no signs of slowing down at the age of nine and can swoop late to repeat his fine 2022 victory. Significantly just failed in Doncaster's Portland and seems sure to be in the mix once more along with last year's third Juan Les Pins. Orazio remains with potential and also can't be ruled out. Bielsa, Northern Express and Ramazan complete the shortlist.

The Stewards' offers hope that ALEEZDANCER (nap) has one of these big sprints in him. Juan Les Pins has a major chance if he runs.

1	1 1st (1) (15/8 +16%) City Burglar		1.875 15/8(+16%)																															(1) City Burglar 15/8, Thrice-raced maiden. 2/1, third of 12 in minor event at Salisbury (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Improvement needed now pitched into a handicap but that's entirely possible. Fast ground may not have been ideal last time and he brings potential to his nursery debut.
2	7 2nd (7) (17/2 +15%) Elemental Eye		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(7) Elemental Eye 17/2, Thrice-raced maiden. Fourth of 8 in maiden at Hamilton (8.3f, good to soft, 15/8) 29 days ago. Booking of Doyle a plus for this handicap debut and he needs a second look. Nursery debut; encouraging 3rd here on second start but failed to build on it at Hamilton.
3	6 3rd (6) (8/1 +33%) Keep Warm		8 8/1(+33%)																															(6) Keep Warm 8/1, Two wins from 6 runs this year, the latest at Pontefract in July. 20/1, respectable tenth of 20 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) 30 days ago, not ideally placed. Vulnerable for win purposes. Midfield in hat-trick bid at York, which was first run on fast ground; retains potential.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 -33%) Mister Daydream		10 10/1(-33%)																															(5) Mister Daydream 10/1, Lightly-raced winner. 10/1, career best when winning 6-runner nursery at Bath (8f, good) 7 days ago, always holding on. Nudged up just 2 lb but this is much tougher and he probably wouldn't want too much give underfoot. Won on nursery debut at Bath last Saturday and could have more to offer.
5th	2 5th (2) (3/1 +10%) Making Dreams		3 3/1(+10%)																															(2) Making Dreams 3/1, Three wins from 8 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner nursery (8/1) at Thirsk (8f, good to soft) 14 days ago. More on her plate up 6 lb here but cannot be discounted. Has won three of her last four starts and this progressive filly is respected.
6th	3 6th (3) (11/2 -57%) Sailthisshipalone		5.5 11/2(-57%)																															(3) Sailthisshipalone 11/2, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. 9/4, won 9-runner minor event at Thirsk (7f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Good chance there's better to come from this colt now handicapping. Yard also saddles Gamraan. Won at Thirsk on third start and could continue to improve now up in trip on nursery debut.
7th	4 7th (4) (12/1 -50%) Gamraan		12 12/1(-50%)																															(4) Gamraan 12/1, Fourth of 6 in nursery at Newcastle (8f, 6/1) 15 days ago. Now 0-6 but he was a solid second off 1 lb higher in a soft-ground Goodwood nursery 3 starts back, and a reproduction of that would put him firmly in the picture. Unable to build on Glorious Goodwood 2nd but may bounce back when returning to slow turf.

16:10 Ayr Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

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

CITY BURGLAR arrives here on the back of a third-placed finish in a competitive novice event at Salisbury earlier in the month. That performance, as well as his second at Newbury the time before, suggests that the son of Cracksman could be hard to stop on his nursery bow. The in-form Making Dreams should not be underestimated, while Mister Daydream and Sailthisshipalone complete the shortlist.

Richard Fahey has saddled the winner of this several times in the past and SAILTHISSHIPALONE could be another for the yard. He has improved with each of his three starts to date, off the mark in a 7f Thirsk novice last time, and this step up in trip now handicapping promises to help unlock further improvement. Stablemate Gamraan will be a big threat if reproducing the form of his Glorious Goodwood effort, while City Burglar and Making Dreams are also accorded respect.

The progressive filly MAKING DREAMS is taken to post her third nursery win. Topweight City Burglar is feared most.

1	10 1st (10) (4/1 +0%) Cold Stare		4 4/1(+0%)																															(10) Cold Stare 4/1, Has drawn a blank in 25 starts since scoring over 6f here (soft) in autumn 2021 but his latest close third at Doncaster (6f, heavy) was encouraging given his track position. Engaged 3.25 here Friday. 0-26 since 6f win here in 2021 but ran a cracker when second in Bronze Cup here on Friday.
2	7 2nd (7) (14/1 +13%) Craven		14 14/1(+13%)																															(7) Craven 14/1, Gained sole success at Leicester in July. Couple of cracking runner-up efforts since though latest Musselburgh run was pretty ordinary. Won over 7f at Leicester in July; also went close at Thirsk last month but below par since.
3	3 3rd (3) (28/1 -12%) Manigordo		28 28/1(-12%)																															(3) Manigordo 28/1, A winner at Beverley in June but last 4 efforts leave plenty to be desired. On the plus side, he's dipped below that successful mark. In good form in midsummer but recent efforts need improving upon.
4	12 4th (12) (33/1 -50%) Phoenix Fire		33 33/1(-50%)																															(12) Phoenix Fire 33/1, Novice winner on the mud on final 2-y-o start and confirmed the improvement shown previously when third of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (1m) in July. Brushed aside at Hamilton and quickly back in trip. Not at his best latest but placed twice off 2lb higher prior to that; back down in trip.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 +55%) Riot		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(1) Riot 9/2, Doubled tally for the season at Doncaster in July. Fitted with cheekpieces and wasn't seem to best effect at Haydock a fortnight ago, so not taken lightly in first-time visor eased in class. Back on a winning mark; recent runs respectable; visor added; considered.
6th	14 6th (14) (8/1 +20%) B Associates		8 8/1(+20%)																															(14) B Associates 8/1, Has proved a real money-spinner this year, producing a career best to notch his fifth win of the campaign in 7f Carlisle handicap last month. Creditable third back there (7f again) since from this mark. Engaged 3.25 here Friday. Five wins in 2023, including C&D; late headway over 6f on Friday and return to 7f a help.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/1 +25%) Novak		9 9/1(+25%)																															(6) Novak 9/1, Completed hat-trick in a 6f course handicap in June. Off for 8 weeks after and unable to continue the good work since, though he's edged just 1 lb above that successful mark. Engaged 3.25 here Friday. Won three in a row this summer but below best recently, including here on Friday.
8th	8 8th (8) (10/1 +0%) Outrun The Storm		10 10/1(+0%)																															(8) Outrun The Storm 10/1, Cashed in on a reduced mark in 9-runner handicap at Newmarket in July. Good second over same C&D next time and did too much too soon when well held back here last month. Too bad to be true here latest and in form before that; could bounce back.
9th	9 9th (9) (5/1 +38%) Old Smoke		5 5/1(+38%)																															(9) Old Smoke 5/1, Heavy-ground Thirsk winner over 1m in April. Solid if unspectacular effort in defeat since but given how he shapes, he could be worth another go at 7f. Cheekpieces left off. Yet to build on good run in London Gold Cup but there's still time; down in trip.
10th	5 10th (5) (16/1 -100%) Deputy		16 16/1(-100%)																															(5) Deputy 16/1, Back-to-back winner last autumn and built on promising reappearance effort when second of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) in May. Backward step over C&D since but he's dangerous if bouncing back. Goes well on soft; below best when last seen in July but came good at this time last year.
11th	2 11th (2) (13/2 +13%) Gainsbourg		6.5 13/2(+13%)																															(2) Gainsbourg 13/2, In top form at this venue in July, recording brace of wins at up to 1m. Looked anchored by 8 lb rise in a better race when seventh at Hamilton since. Won twice here in blinkers in July; below best at Hamilton latest but could bounce back.
12th	11 12th (11) (40/1 -60%) Angel From Above		40 40/1(-60%)																															(11) Angel From Above 40/1, Built on debut promise when winning 6f novice at Carlisle (soft) in June (final start for Keith Dalgleish). Shaped like a stayer when fourth at Thirsk and brings an unexposed profile to the party now handicapping. Mark does look stiff, though. 6f novice winner; fair fourth on 7f yard debut; unexposed now handicapping.

16:45 Ayr Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A winner of his last two starts here, including an impressive success over C&D in July, GAINSBOURG must hold every chance of continuing his excellent course form. Daragh Bourke's charge is narrowly preferred to Deputy, who has been lightly raced this season and remains on a workable mark. Yaaser would be a big player if turning up after Friday's scheduled engagement in the Bronze Cup, while Riot and the unexposed Angel From Above are others to consider.

YAASER was just about better than ever when successful at Southwell 10 days ago and his revised mark looks well within range. A few of these lurk on dangerous marks, notably Cold Stare and Old Smoke so they are a couple of potential threats in what is an open race.

If RIOT reacts well to a visor he's handicapped to win. Stablemate Cold Stare will be a threat if over his exertions on Friday.

1	6 1st (6) (12/1 -50%) Capital Theory		12 12/1(-50%)																															(6) Capital Theory 12/1, Went backwards from his recent run when thirteenth of 14 in handicap (50/1) at York (11.8f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Bounce back called for as he goes up in distance. His top three RPRs on turf have been on soft; unraced beyond 1m4f.
2	2 2nd (2) (12/1 +0%) Greysful Storm		12 12/1(+0%)																															(2) Greysful Storm 12/1, Made a winning handicap debut at Newbury in May. 25/1, 4½ lengths fourth of 5 to Shanroe in listed race at Chester (14.4f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago. Needs to find more from her current mark back in a handicap. Scored easily in May; in-and-out form since; needs better and 7lb claimer is recruited.
3	7 3rd (7) (6.5/1 -30%) Furzig		6.5 6.5/1(-30%)																															(7) Furzig 6.5/1, Left poorly placed when length third of 8 to the reopposing Vaynor in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good to soft, 5/1) 2 weeks ago. Back down to his last winning mark and could be ready to take advantage. Thirsk 3rd to Vaynor; not proven beyond 1m4f (two attempts) but this is only an extra 1f.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -33%) Sir Chauvelin		12 12/1(-33%)																															(4) Sir Chauvelin 12/1, C&D winner. Returned to all-weather, capitalised on a falling mark when winning 11-runner handicap (22/1) at Southwell (16.5f) 10 days ago. Needs everything to drop right back down in trip. Lowest mark since 2016 for Southwell AW win (2m) ten days ago; more to prove back on turf.
5th	8 5th (8) (12/1 +40%) Tilsitt		12 12/1(+40%)																															(8) Tilsitt 12/1, Three-time course winner, but thirteen runs since last success in 2022. In frame last 3 starts, fourth of 8 in handicap at Musselburgh (1m, soft, 10/3) 6 days ago. Others preferred as he goes significantly up in trip. Spent vast majority of career at up to 1m2f, so this trip looks a big stumbling block.
6th	1 6th (1) (85/40 +39%) Mr Curiosity		2.125 85/40(+39%)																															(1) Mr Curiosity 85/40, Successful at Ripon in July and has acquitted himself well since, denied a clear run 3f out when sixth of 14 in handicap at Haydock (14f, good to firm, 12/1) 2 weeks ago. Can give another good account. Shaped okay in warm 1m6f race at Haydock last time considering the trouble in running.
7th	9 7th (9) (7/1 +75%) Glasses Up		7 7/1(+75%)																															(9) Glasses Up 7/1, Seven-time course winner, latest success here in August. Unsuited by step up in trip when fourth of 5 in handicap (17/2) at Musselburgh (18.1f, good to firm) 24 days ago. However, faces a tough task from out of the handicap. Engaged 5.10 here Friday. Only 6th here yesterday; August win was first for more than two years; 6lb out of handicap.
8th	3 8th (3) (7/1 -17%) Dark Moon Rising		7 7/1(-17%)																															(3) Dark Moon Rising 7/1, Returned to winning ways at York (11.8f) in July. 11/1, not discredited when eighth of 14 in handicap at the same C&D (good to firm) 29 days ago. Remains lightly raced at this sort of trip, so could still have more to offer. Way down the weights when winning at York (1m4f) in July on penultimate outing; considered.
9th	5 9th (5) (13/2 -86%) Vaynor		6.5 13/2(-86%)																															(5) Vaynor 13/2, After 10 weeks off, gained a first win of the season in 8-runner handicap at Thirsk (12f, good to soft, 9/1) 2 weeks ago, though very much had run of the race. Can go well again returned to this longer trip. Non-runner three times on softer than good in summer; made all back on good at Thirsk.

17:20 Ayr Handicap (Class 3) 13f Race Class Flow

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

FURZIG ran his best race for a while when third over 1m4f at Thirsk after being handed a chance by the handicapper and he is fancied to turn the tables on the winner Vaynor. The latter finished a length and a quarter in front of the selection but is worse off at the weights. Sir Chauvelin should also be thereabouts after returning to form when springing a surprise over the extended 2m at Southwell last week.

FURZIG has shaped better than the result on his last 2 starts, left poorly placed when beaten a length at Thirsk a fortnight ago, so he can gain a first success of the season having dropped back down to his last winning mark. He is taken to reverse the placings with Vaynor from when the pair met last time, with Mr Curiosity completing the shortlist.

Vaynor seemingly needs good ground or better. with good to soft forecast, MR CURIOSITY makes plenty of appeal.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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

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

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

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