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

GERT LUSH won in impressive fashion at Sandown last time out and the daughter of Bated Breath appeals as the one to beat once again from a 6lb raised mark. Richard P Smith merits respect following last month's Lingfield success, while Sir Plato, who has seen his mark tumble after a series of below-par efforts, cannot be dismissed at a venue where he often runs well.

GERT LUSH has a good record when partnered by Megan Jordan and the pair can combine for another win here. They Don't Know found 7f too sharp back on turf last time but had been placed off this mark over 1¼m on AW prior to that and can give Roger Teal's mare most to do.

The verdict goes to GERT LUSH who can boast a course victory and arrives on the back of a ready Sandown success

LORDSHIP can count himself slightly unfortunate to have bumped into a couple of promising types recently, but this looks a gilt-edged opportunity for the William Haggas-trained gelding to open his account. Narrowly denied in a three-runner contest at Leicester 18 days ago, Swift Hawk ought to play a leading role, while Mountain Lake, who disappointed when sent off a warm favourite on debut at Wolverhampton, could take a step forward with that run under her belt.

LORDSHIP is going the right way and a repeat of the form he showed in handicap company at Haydock last time could be enough to see him get off the mark here. Swift Hawk is the obvious danger on the back of his Leicester near miss, although Mountain Lake did go off a short price on debut and it would be no surprise were she to prove a different proposition over this much longer trip.

William Haggas's improving LORDSHIP holds the clear edge on the form of his excellent Haydock handicap second and can open his account

A runner-up on both of his starts to date, Sioux Warrior is likely to be in the thick of things once again, while it would come as no surprise were Noo Point to step forward from his recent Catterick debut. Dash Power represents powerful connections and is worth a market check, but a chance is taken on MART. It was a warm contest at Yarmouth in which he made his racecourse bow, and Michael Bell's charge, a half-brother to the admirable Ornate, can progress here.

The vote goes to the sole newcomer in the line-up, DASH POWER, who is every inch a likely type on paper and a positive market move would add to his appeal. Sioux Warrior is a winner waiting to happen judged on his efforts at Doncaster and Chester, and he is a much-respected main danger. Mart and Noo Point are both open to improvement.

Charlie Hills's Sioux Nation colt SIOUX WARRIOR brings some fair form to the table and can get off the mark at the third attempt.

An easy winner when making all at Goodwood last week, AIRSHOW can follow up at a track where he has been unlucky not to win, having been runner-up on all five starts. Rod Millman's charge gets the vote ahead of course-specialist Some Nightmare and Desert Falcon, who must be of interest off a mark of 76 on his handicap debut.

AIRSHOW escapes a penalty for his recent Goodwood success so should prove hard to beat if turning up in similar form. Desert Falcon still looked very green when scoring on his return at Lingfield and may do better still now venturing into handicaps.

Sir Mark Prescott's easy Lingfield winner DESERT FALCON looks the sort to take a big step forward now handicapping and gets the vote

It is difficult to look past JACQUELINA, who has finished in the first two on her last two starts over C&D and seems to have the number of Rhubarb on those lines of form. The four-year-old should enjoy the fast conditions again and it may be that Connie's Rose, a winner over C&D last month, will give her the most to think about.

JACQUELINA has looked better than ever over this C&D the last twice, off the mark 2 weeks ago before only just failing to follow up on Saturday, and she can quickly resume winning ways. Rhubarb was only a length behind the selection last time and can place round here again.

Lots of overlapping form. However, JACQUELINA is on a steady upward curve and, with conditions favourable, can prove tough to pass.

Matty Too took advantage of a drop in the ratings when winning in fine style at Yarmouth eight days ago and, assuming the visor has the same effect, another big run is expected, despite his 5lb penalty. However, he now requires a career best and is taken on with the dual-course winner DIAMOND COTTAGE, who also arrives on the back of a win, but appeals more of just 2lb higher. Chifa has course experience and is also considered.

MATTY TOO was better than ever when making a winning start for Ed Dunlop at Yarmouth last week, and with an excellent apprentice taking over, he can make light of his penalty. Macs Dilemma has an excellent record here and is feared most, with Diamond Cottage another to consider.

Last week's visored Yarmouth winner MATTY TOO (nap) appears nicely treated under a 5lb penalty. He can make it 2-2 for Ed Dunlop.

Red Evelyn and Letter Of The Law both have a lot going for them but they are creeping up in the ratings and neither look solid on these terms. Therefore, it could pay to side with ROMANOVICH, who still has low mileage for a four-year-old and, off just 2lb higher than his victory over 7f here last month, he looks a potential improver. Millicent also has something to offer and is feared most from the rest.

MILLICENT isn't the most consistent but she signalled a clear return to form despite operating from out of the weights when third at Nottingham 12 days ago and, now from her correct mark, could be worth chancing to back that up now. Veteran Kenstone is also interesting back from a break with his yard in good order, whilst the John O'Shea trained-pair Letter of The Law and Romanovich could also play a part.

John O'Shea is doubly represented. However, with Kieran O'Neill retaining the mount, the suggestion is the 6yo mare MILLICENT.

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.
