13:30 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 13f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	13 1st (13) (9/2 +25%) Letmebetheboss	4.5 9/2(+25%)	(13) Letmebetheboss 9/2, Creditable length third of 12 to Endofastorm in handicap (5/2) at this course (11.6f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Needs to raise his game in order to open his account at the ninth time of asking. Better since further wind surgery; third to Endofastorm here (11.5f) recently; stamina?.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 -56%) Surrey Charm	7 7/1(-56%)	(3) Surrey Charm 7/1, 6/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, third of 5 in handicap at Ffos Las (12f, heavy) 32 days ago. Entitled to come on for that belated seasonal reappearance and she has to enter calculations off the same mark. Entitled to have needed her comeback run at Ffos Las (1m4f, heavy) nearly five weeks ago..
3	10 3rd (10) (8/1 -14%) Endofastorm	8 8/1(-14%)	(10) Endofastorm 8/1, Course winner. Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap (20/1) at this course (14f, good to firm) 16 days ago. That was a Class 2 contest and, now 1 lb lower back down in class, he needs considering. First turf win here (11.5f) last month; excuse since; testing ground is the thorny issue..
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 -56%) Ship To Shore	7 7/1(-56%)	(4) Ship To Shore 7/1, Latest win at Lingfield in August. 4/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 17 days ago. Conditions won't be a problem back on turf and he's a live each-way contender. In good heart on Polytrack at Lingfield (2m); has shown he handles heavy ground..
5th	12 5th (12) (50/1 -52%) Gilbert	50 50/1(-52%)	(12) Gilbert 50/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. Last of 11 in handicap (16/1) at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 29 days ago and he's likely to come up short once again. 4-38; mostly struggled this year, finishing last three times, including at Windsor (11.5f).
6th	2 6th (2) (10/1 +50%) Fiddlers Green	10 10/1(+50%)	(2) Fiddlers Green 10/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 11 runs this year, the latest on soft ground at Doncaster in April. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 6/1) 10 days ago. Couldn't completely rule out given that he'll go on the ground but one or two of these are more appealing all the same. Early-season wins here (11.5f) and at Doncaster (1m4f, soft); form has dipped markedly..
7th	9 7th (9) (6/1 +8%) Wannabeawallaby	6 6/1(+8%)	(9) Wannabeawallaby 6/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap at Beverley (16.2f, good, 10/3) 47 days ago, doing too much too soon. Was knocking firmly on the door prior to that and handled good to soft (unraced on slower) with aplomb when second at Lingfield in July. Shortlisted. Consistent; second at Yarmouth, Lingfield and Nottingham (1m6f-2m)..
8th	11 8th (11) (4/1 +60%) Asense	4 4/1(+60%)	(11) Asense 4/1, C&D winner. 40/1, creditable seventh of 13 in handicap at this course (14f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and she's now without each-way hope. Last year's winner (from 4lb higher); patchy form this year; safest to assess market vibes.
9th	5 9th (5) (20/1 -100%) Snapius	20 20/1(-100%)	(5) Snapius 20/1, First run since leaving James A. Nash when last of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW, 5/1) 20 days ago. Hopes now pinned on the addition of a visor sparking a return to form. Last of nine on stable debut at Lingfield (1m4f, AW); easing mark and newly applied visor..
10th	1 10th (1) (22/1 -300%) Major Major	22 22/1(-300%)	(1) Major Major 22/1, 4/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) when last seen in June. Needs to bounce back but it would be no surprise were he to do so off this mark (4 lb lower than when last successful) and with conditions no problem Competitively handicapped on peak form; 101-day absence, with stamina to prove.
11th	8 11th (8) (50/1 -52%) Wahoo King	50 50/1(-52%)	(8) Wahoo King 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1, last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW) 69 days ago and he looks set for another struggle. Remote last of ten on handicap debut at Lingfield (1m5f, AW) in July; still low mileage..
12th	6 12th (6) (9/1 +10%) Spring Chorus	9 9/1(+10%)	(6) Spring Chorus 9/1, Winner at Beverley in May. 9/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) 35 days ago. Will be of interest if the ground remains on the slow side (Beverley success was gained on soft ground). Has done okay since Beverley win (1m4f, soft) in May; noteworthy long-distance traveller..
13th	14 13th (14) (150/1 -200%) Aquifolia	150 150/1(-200%)	(14) Aquifolia 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1 and hooded for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 10 days ago. Readily passed over. No worthwhile form for G. Harris (5f-7f) or N. Mulholland (1m-1m4f).

13:30 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 13f Race Class Flow

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

The forecast soft ground shouldn't unduly bother SHIP TO SHORE, who reverts to turf on the back of a win and a place on the all-weather and is a solid fancy to extend the run of good form. Endofastorm has plenty of course experience and is another appealing option with Ethan Jones claiming 3lb. Surrey Charm and Spring Chorus don't have many miles on the clock and can also go well.

With the Hughie Morrison yard among the winners of late, SURREY CHARM is taken to build on her encouraging reappearance third in a first-time tongue strap (retained here) at Ffos Las. That was her first run on the back of an 11-month absence, so she's entitled to come on for it and this slight step up in trip looks a good move. Wannabeawallaby wasn't on-song last time but was in good heart prior to that and he is feared most ahead of Major Major.

The pair to focus on are the in-form Ship To Shore and the early-season Beverley scorer SPRING CHORUS, who are effective on soft.

14:05 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f - 13 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	9 1st (9) (50/1 +0%) Alika Breeze	50 50/1(+0%)	(9) Alika Breeze 50/1, 40/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) 19 days ago, not clear run. Easy enough to look elsewhere. 0-7; well beaten in all four handicaps this year despite a sliding mark; others preferred.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/1 +56%) Soi Dao	11 11/1(+56%)	(5) Soi Dao 11/1, Eleventh of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Windsor (10f, good) 15 days ago and this 5-y-o is likely to find a few too good once more. 2lb below last winning mark, but below form the last twice; needs to bounce back.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/1 -20%) Racing Demon	6 6/1(-20%)	(1) Racing Demon 6/1, Unreliable sort. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. 9/1, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, suited by way race developed. 2 lb rise fair enough and while he wouldn't be a banker to repeat that form, he'll be a threat late on if the pace is again strong. Three wins this year including two over C&D; respected in the soft conditions.
4	4 4th (4) (9/4 +68%) Johnjay	2.25 9/4(+68%)	(4) Johnjay 9/4, C&D winner. 15/2, sixth of 9 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to soft) 82 days ago. Handles cut in the ground and possibilities back at his optimum trip. Sole success came over C&D (soft); possible to excuse two latest defeats; shortlisted.
5th	6 5th (6) (13/2 +35%) Darysina Gold	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(6) Darysina Gold 13/2, C&D winner in August. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good, 9/1) 15 days ago. Another who has shown her best form on good/good to firm, which is a concern. C&D winner in August, but she has it to prove on a soft surface.
6th	11 6th (11) (66/1 -100%) Sense Of Reason	66 66/1(-100%)	(11) Sense Of Reason 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good) 15 days ago. Still early days for this 3-y-o but he needs to raise his game a couple of notches. Not finished within 14l of the winner in four starts; look elsewhere.
7th	7 7th (7) (11/1 -69%) Chourmo	11 11/1(-69%)	(7) Chourmo 11/1, Three wins from 12 runs this year. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap (5/2) at Brighton (9.9f, good) 55 days ago. If the word 'soft' appears in the going description, as seems likely, that would be a concern. Three-time winner at Brighton this year; ground softer than good is a question mark.
8th	2 8th (2) (6/1 +33%) Andromedas Kingdom	6 6/1(+33%)	(2) Andromedas Kingdom 6/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 5 runs this year. 5/1, below form eighth of 14 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 68 days ago. Probably in the handicapper's grip for now. Three wins this year including two over C&D; return to a soft surface would be a plus.
9th	14 9th (14) (10/1 +70%) Eye Of The Water	10 10/1(+70%)	(14) Eye Of The Water 10/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2023. 20/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Others make more appeal. 12lb below last winning mark and 7lb lower than when second here in April; not ruled out.
10th	12 10th (12) (33/1 -106%) Kapparis Kid	33 33/1(-106%)	(12) Kapparis Kid 33/1, Temperamental sort. 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm), slowly away. Off 92 days and significantly back up in trip. Others preferred. Unplaced in all nine handicaps including two for this yard; 3lb drop not enough to tempt.
11th	13 11th (13) (15/2 -25%) Havana Goldrush	7.5 15/2(-25%)	(13) Havana Goldrush 15/2, C&D winner. 6/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Appears to be pretty versatile ground-wise and likely to be in the mix. 1lb lower than when making all over C&D in April; has form on a soft surface; shortlisted.
12th	10 12th (10) (80/1 -142%) Magna Vega	80 80/1(-142%)	(10) Magna Vega 80/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (10f, good to firm, 20/1) 75 days ago and, chances are, he'll come up short here, too. 0-9; third at Windsor in May but well held in three starts since; something to prove.
13th	3 13th (3) (25/1 -317%) Raqraaq	25 25/1(-317%)	(3) Raqraaq 25/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. 9/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good) 15 days ago, running on. Remains on a decent mark and his turn may be near but the forecast slow ground is a worry (best form on good/good to firm). 1-22; ran well when second last time but there is a query about the ground.

14:05 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

The lightly-raced Desert Footsteps made a successful handicap debut at Chepstow and appeals off just 6lb higher, while Chourmo, a ready winner at Brighton most recently, should go well if not inconvenienced by dropping back down in trip. However, dual C&D winner ANDROMEDAS KINGDOM looks worth chancing with the ground in her favour. She goes well fresh and, as she proved at Nottingham on her penultimate start, testing conditions can readily bring the best out of her.

DESERT FOOTSTEPS had her rivals in trouble some way out when making a winning handicap debut at Chepstow and, provided she proved equally effective on what is likely to be a slower surface here, the Marcus Tregoning-trained filly looks more than capable of going in again off this 6 lb higher mark. Havana Goldrush is next on the list, with Johnjay and Racing Demon also expected to be on the premises.

Preference is for dual C&D winner RACING DEMON who was impressive when winning easily on soft ground at Chepstow in May.

14:40 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	10 1st (10) (7/2 +36%) Albus Anne	3.5 7/2(+36%)	(10) Albus Anne 7/2, Last season's winner of this contest who got back to best form, in first-time hood, when landing 12-runner handicap over C&D (good, 11/2) 17 days ago, kept up to work. 4 lb rise fair and another bold is anticipated. Last two wins have come over C&D including this race last year; respected.
2	4 2nd (4) (8/1 +20%) Equion	8 8/1(+20%)	(4) Equion 8/1, 9/2, bit below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 24 days ago, left poorly placed. Every chance if back to best. 6lb lower than when winning on heavy ground at Nottingham last year; each-way shout.
3	3 3rd (3) (8/1 +20%) Bella Veneta	8 8/1(+20%)	(3) Bella Veneta 8/1, C&D winner. 13/2, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good) 15 days ago. Respected. C&D winner whose recent efforts show that the ability remains; not dismissed.
4	5 4th (5) (28/1 -180%) City Cyclone	28 28/1(-180%)	(5) City Cyclone 28/1, 18/1, 2¼ lengths third of 12 to Judge Frank in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good) 15 days ago. Claims on best form. 1-18; closely matched with Judge Frank on latest Windsor running; might not be far away.
5th	9 5th (9) (9/1 +10%) Ciotog	9 9/1(+10%)	(9) Ciotog 9/1, C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 7/2, creditable third of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago. Others more persuasive. Dual C&D winner but losing run up to 16; unraced on ground softer than good to soft.
6th	6 6th (6) (15/2 +38%) Molly Valentine	7.5 15/2(+38%)	(6) Molly Valentine 15/2, 15/2, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 17 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. 7lb below last winning mark and ran better last time; possibilities if building on it.
7th	1 7th (1) (15/2 -7%) Savanna King	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(1) Savanna King 15/2, Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Epsom (10.1f, soft) 19 days ago. Back down in trip. Not out of things. 0-9; not sure dropping back in trip is the answer.
8th	12 8th (12) (14/1 -211%) James Park Woods	14 14/1(-211%)	(12) James Park Woods 14/1, Posted best effort for some time when readily taking 6-runner handicap (2/1) at Brighton (8f, soft) 22 days ago. 5 lb higher now but looks a big player nonetheless. Won easily at Brighton last month; record of 2-45 sounds a note of caution.
9th	2 9th (2) (10/1 +0%) Marsh Benham	10 10/1(+0%)	(2) Marsh Benham 10/1, Ungenuine type. 11/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable third of 6 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good) 30 days ago, slowly away. Others more appealing. Last win came on heavy ground at Windsor just under a year ago; now 4lb lower.
10th	13 10th (13) (14/1 +30%) Ravenglass	14 14/1(+30%)	(13) Ravenglass 14/1, 8/1, respectable 5¾ lengths seventh of 12 to Albus Anne in handicap at this C&D (good) 17 days ago, not clear run. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Losing run up to 27 and was behind two of these here last month.
11th	11 11th (11) (22/1 -38%) Fact Or Fable	22 22/1(-38%)	(11) Fact Or Fable 22/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in August. Creditable 4 lengths fifth of 12 to Albus Anne in handicap (6/1) at this C&D (good) 17 days ago. Others hold stronger claims. Dual C&D winner; all seven turf wins have come on good or faster ground.
12th	7 12th (7) (10/1 -122%) Judge Frank	10 10/1(-122%)	(7) Judge Frank 10/1, Off the mark at Chepstow last month and improved on that, in first-time cheekpieces, when taking 12-runner handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good, 9/4) 15 days ago. Likely contender. Bids for a hat-trick off a 3lb higher mark; would have made more appeal on drying ground.
13th	8 13th (8) (40/1 -100%) Never Mind Me	40 40/1(-100%)	(8) Never Mind Me 40/1, 9/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 21 days ago. Others look better treated. Twice went close in the summer, but well held in his other six starts; enough to prove.
14th	14 14th (14) (200/1 -506%) Azamhan	200 200/1(-506%)	(14) Azamhan 200/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Last of 12 in handicap (100/1) at Chepstow (8.1f, good to firm). Off 13 months. Best watched. Beat just one rival in five starts last year; makes no appeal back from 404 days off.

14:40 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Hat-trick seeker JUDGE FRANK arrives at the top of his game and having made all to score off 3lb lower at Windsor last month, the improving three-year-old could again be difficult to overhaul if the cheekpieces have the same impact second time around. Marsh Benham has won with juice in the ground and is an appealing alternative to the selection from 4lb below his last winning mark. Albus Anne, who took a division of this event 12 months ago, and fellow C&D winner Ciotog complete the shortlist.

Preference is for JAMES PARK WOODS, who took advantage of a drop in the weights when scoring at Brighton last month and remains feasibly treated. Albus Anne and Judge Frank head the list of dangers.

The vote goes to ALBUS ANNE who won a division of this race last year and comes into this off the back of another C&D success.

1	1 1st (1) (8/13 +15%) Hopewell Rock	0.615385 8/13(+15%)	(1) Hopewell Rock 8/13, Promising sort who made a winning start in 10-runner maiden (17/2) at Newbury (8f, good to firm) 46 days ago.

15:15 Bath Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

A taking winner over this distance on debut at Newbury in August, HOPEWELL ROCK looks more than capable of handling a 6lb penalty and soft ground should not be an issue for the son of New Bay. A promising fifth when keeping on well late over 7f at Kempton, Castle Gates is bred to improve for the extra furlong and he is a leading contender. Distant Memory and Fantasy World are interesting newcomers.

It's likely we haven't seen the best of HOPEWELL ROCK, who had something in hand when scoring on debut at Newbury in August. He can follow up. Castle Gates is a likely improver and is feared most, whilst Sourdough may be the pick of an interesting crop of newcomers.

Newbury winner HOPEWELL ROCK is taken to defy a penalty. Castle Gates loooks a danger, while some of the newcomers are interesting.

7th	8 7th (8) (6/5 +60%) Saytarr	1.2 6/5(+60%)	(8) Saytarr 6/5, Lightly-raced maiden who found more improvement, in first-time cheekpieces, when close second of 4 in nursery at Ffos Las (6f, heavy, 13/8) 33 days ago.

15:50 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

SAYTARR may have a wide draw to overcome, but he could be the one to beat in this field following a narrow reversal over 6f at Ffos Las last time out. This slightly shorter trip could prove ideal and the son of Mehmas is preferred to nursery debutant Mirage Mistress, as well as Roysdelight, who ran a career best, despite a slow start, when narrowly denied over 5f at Chepstow in August.

SAYTARR is going the right way and proved his effectiveness in testing conditions when runner-up at Ffos Las in August. He gets the nod. Lady Dorchester and Roysdelight rate the principal dangers.

Steadily improving SAYTARR is taken to open his account. Emporess is second choice ahead of Roysdelight.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
8	8 (8) (SP +100%) Rajwaan	0 SP(+100%)	(8) Rajwaan SP, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 8-runner nursery (11/8) at Southwell (5f) for Andrew Balding when last seen 23 months ago (gelded since). Probably best watched on debut for new connections. Absent since winning on AW in November 2022 for Andrew Balding; market helpful.
1	6 1st (6) (15/2 +63%) Balmoral Lady	7.5 15/2(+63%)	(6) Balmoral Lady 15/2, Winner at Haydock in July. 10/1, last of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 27 days ago. Unraced on ground slower than good and it's probably best to look elsewhere. May rebound, having won at Haydock on sole attempt in a Class 5 handicap.
2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 +7%) Mister Bluebird	7 7/1(+7%)	(3) Mister Bluebird 7/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. 12/1 and visored for 1st time, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Goodwood (6f, good) 28 days ago. Enters calculations. Drops back in class but has something to prove with usual headgear removed.
3	7 3rd (7) (8/1 -45%) Beyond Equal	8 8/1(-45%)	(7) Beyond Equal 8/1, C&D winner. Twenty-nine runs since last win in 2021. Finished with running left when sixth of 16 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 9/1) 16 days ago. Solid chance off 2 lb lower, granted better luck. Suffered major traffic issues here last time but long losing spell remains a negative.
4	9 4th (9) (10/1 +70%) Miss Bella Brand	10 10/1(+70%)	(9) Miss Bella Brand 10/1, 18/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, firm) 13 days ago. Visor back on and she's likely to find a few too good once more. 2-2 under Benoit De La Sayette when the ground is soft, the wins gained off higher marks.
5th	12 5th (12) (12/1 +0%) Sub Thirteen	12 12/1(+0%)	(12) Sub Thirteen 12/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 8 runs this year, the latest at Leicester in June. Respectable fourth of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Salisbury (6f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Has work to do. Record of 3-6 for current stable includes a C&D win; form has dipped the last twice.
6th	5 6th (5) (7/1 +56%) Hiatus	7 7/1(+56%)	(5) Hiatus 7/1, Latest win at Chepstow in May. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 10/1) 25 days ago, better placed than most. Wouldn't be without an each-way chance if he was to put his best foot forward. Engaged 3.55 Windsor Monday. Record suggests he'll be interesting on soft ground.
7th	1 7th (1) (14/1 -75%) Connie's Rose	14 14/1(-75%)	(1) Connie's Rose 14/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 15 runs this year. Respectable fifth of 16 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, going off too hard. Place possibilities. Consistent mare; respectable fifth in a series final over C&D most recently; solid.
8th	14 8th (14) (50/1 -525%) Revenue	50 50/1(-525%)	(14) Revenue 50/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Seventh of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Chepstow (5.1f, good) 36 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time and could have a part to play if on-song back here with conditions no problem. Chance of rebound depends on how well he responds to first-time tongue-tie.
9th	13 9th (13) (14/1 -180%) Hallowed Time	14 14/1(-180%)	(13) Hallowed Time 14/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap at Chester (6.1f, heavy, 18/1) 18 days ago. Nudged up just 2 lb and should give another good account. Won at Chester last month; may remain competitive if in the same form again.
10th	11 10th (11) (17/2 -113%) Safari Dream	8.5 17/2(-113%)	(11) Safari Dream 17/2, Nineteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable second of 6 in handicap at Sandown (5f, good, 13/8) 13 days ago. Likely to make a bold bid to go one better here. Has plenty of encouraging form this season; attractively treated off current mark.
11th	2 11th (2) (6/1 +25%) Vince Lombardi	6 6/1(+25%)	(2) Vince Lombardi 6/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap at Newbury (6f, soft, 6/1) 26 days ago. Would have a chance if reproducing the form of his Ffos Las near miss off this mark 3 starts back. 0-5 for new yard but ran well off this mark at Ffos Las in June.
12th	4 12th (4) (17/2 +39%) Sarah's Verse	8.5 17/2(+39%)	(4) Sarah's Verse 17/2, Four-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 14 runs this year, the latest at Ffos Las in June. 8/1, bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, slowly away. Looks vulnerable for win purposes. Engaged 3.55 Windsor Monday. Six wins at Bath; hindered by traffic issues here last month; has possibilities.

16:25 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

MISTER BLUEBIRD has dropped to a mark 9lb lower than his last success and the pace he has shown on a couple of occasions this season over further gives the impression that he will be well suited by this distance. Recent Chester winner Hallowed Time can give him the most to think about, although Safari Dream was a highly creditable runner-up at Sandown and is another to consider.

BEYOND EQUAL surely would have gone close granted a clearer passage over C&D recently and he makes plenty of appeal off a 2 lb lower mark. He may have most to fear from Safari Dream, who hasn't got his head in front for a while but he's versatile ground-wise and his latest Sandown second suggests that a win could be imminent. Hallowed Time struck on deep ground at Chester last time and he also enters calculations, along with Vince Lombardi.

Off a handy mark and with Benoit De La Sayette on board, MISS BELLA BRAND gets the vote. Safari Dream is second choice.

1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +91%) Speedacus	3 3/1(+91%)	(4) Speedacus 3/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 66/1) 28 days ago. Hard to warm to judged on recent evidence. Has shown previous little in nine starts for this yard; watch market.
2	2 2nd (2) (16/1 -167%) Marching Mac	16 16/1(-167%)	(2) Marching Mac 16/1, 33/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Brighton (6f, good) 14 days ago. Now 3 lb higher and drops back to the minimum trip but claims if able to build on that breakthrough success. Won at Brighton last time; shortlisted if coping with the return to 5f and soft ground.
3	8 3rd (8) (16/1 -100%) Sisters In The Sky	16 16/1(-100%)	(8) Sisters In The Sky 16/1, Latest win here in July. Below form ninth of 15 in handicap back at this course (5.7f, good, 7/1) 17 days ago, never nearer. Capable of getting involved off this mark if on-song. 1lb below last winning mark, but his last two efforts leave him with a bit to prove.
4	1 4th (1) (10/3 -21%) Cabeza De Llave	3.333333 10/3(-21%)	(1) Cabeza De Llave 10/3, 11/2, improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good) 15 days ago, driven out. 5 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from repeating the dose. 5lb higher than when winning at Windsor last time; runner-up in only start on soft ground.
5th	7 5th (7) (7/1 +30%) Havechatma	7 7/1(+30%)	(7) Havechatma 7/1, Third of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 13/2) 21 days ago. 0-6 on turf and prospect of slow ground is a concern. 0-6 on turf though she finished third over C&D in June; soft ground wouldn't be ideal.
6th	3 6th (3) (10/1 -122%) Some Nightmare	10 10/1(-122%)	(3) Some Nightmare 10/1, Latest win at Chepstow in September. 10/3, good fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (5.7f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Not without each-way hope. Latest run may have come too soon; has winning form on soft ground and could go well.
7th	11 7th (11) (11/1 +31%) Fishermans Cottage	11 11/1(+31%)	(11) Fishermans Cottage 11/1, Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (17/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago. Hood back on and he's opposable. Has twice made the frame here, but he needs more if he is to make it ninth-time lucky.
8th	9 8th (9) (22/1 +12%) Storm Venture	22 22/1(+12%)	(9) Storm Venture 22/1, Fourth of 5 in handicap (16/1) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 40 days ago. Plenty to find on form. May have needed latest run but is now 0-15; needs a big step forward.
9th	12 9th (12) (20/1 +20%) Haveagobeau	20 20/1(+20%)	(12) Haveagobeau 20/1, 66/1 and visored for 1st time, 3 lengths fourth of 9 to Cabeza De Llave in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good) 15 days ago, conceding first run. Others make more appeal for win purposes. 0-15; met trouble when fourth at Windsor last time, but not sure whether he can repeat it.
10th	5 10th (5) (4/1 +11%) Media Guest	4 4/1(+11%)	(5) Media Guest 4/1, Course winner. Two wins from 42 Flat runs. Latest win here in July. Last of 6 in handicap (14/1) at Sandown (5f, good) 13 days ago. Will be a danger to all if responding well to the first-time blinkers. Just 2-42 but his record here this year reads 2212; each-way claims again; blinkers on.

16:55 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Cabeza De Llave gained his first victory since February at Windsor on his latest outing and Michael Attwater's gelding commands a fair amount of respect, despite being 5lb higher on this occasion. Marching Mac returned to form at Brighton a fortnight ago and has to be of interest, but it would be no surprise if MEDIA GUEST comes out on top. His best recent displays have come at this track and the switch of headgear to blinkers might see him in a better light.

CABEZA DE LLAVE has returned to form at Windsor the last twice, latterly landing a 5f handicap in pretty decisive fashion, and he is taken to follow up here. An on-song Media Guest would be a threat and he is second choice ahead of Some Nightmare. Of the others, 3-y-o Marching Mac will also have a chance if building on his 33/1 success at Brighton a fortnight ago.

The choice is CABEZA DE LLAVE who can follow up his Windsor success. He finished second in his only previous attempt on soft ground.

17:25 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

SONNET STAR has been running with credit over 1m4f at Ffos Las on her most recent outings and the drop back in trip may bring about the improvement required for her to shed the maiden tag. Stable companion Jimmy Mark wasn't disgraced at Goodwood at the beginning of last month and is expected to be competitive along with Ladypacksapunch, who didn't get the clearest of runs here last time.

RUN OF LUCK (also declared at Windsor on Monday) has made a good start in handicaps, displaying a professional attitude when scoring here a fortnight ago, and he can follow up. Ladypacksapunch, Sonnet Star and Fougere complete the shortlist.

Improving 3yo RUN OF LUCK (nap) showed that the mud holds no fears on his penultimate start and was off the mark over C&D since.

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.
