|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (3/1 +10%)L'eagle Aid |
3/1(+10%) | (1) L'eagle Aid 3/1, Game when landing a handicap by a neck off 69 at Newcastle last time; largely good form prior; up 6lb; latest win can be a springboard to more; contender 6lb rise will make life tougher but having Archie Young take off 5lb won't hurt. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (6/5 +52%)Moon Angel |
6/5(+52%) | (2) Moon Angel 6/5, Bit in hand landing a handicap by 2l off 68 at Salisbury last time on turf debut; up 5lb; fair form on AW prior; best run yet latest; serious threat Off the mark on her yard/turf debut back from nine months off four weeks ago; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (4/1 +20%)Run Of Luck |
4/1(+20%) | (8) Run Of Luck 4/1, Ideally suited by trip when landing a handicap by 2l off 56 at Ffos Las last time; in top order winning three of last six; chance Made all at Ffos Las off a 3lb lower mark three weeks ago; might not want fast ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (20/1 +0%)Lincoln Rockstar |
20/1(+0%) | (6) Lincoln Rockstar 20/1, Did not get a clear run fourth beaten 13l in a handicap at Newmarket (July) latest; back on last winning mark; may contend Been patchy at best this time round and is some way down the pecking order. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (40/1 -60%)Hedonista |
40/1(-60%) | (3) Hedonista 40/1, Probably needed race well beaten in a handicap over 1m6f at Ffos Las latest; went close on AW over winter; more needed Offered little for her new yard recently when finishing last at a big price. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (40/1 -21%)Lesrico |
40/1(-21%) | (7) Lesrico 40/1, Probably needed race beaten 5l in a handicap over 1m2f at Beverley last time; probably bit to come; step forward needed Bit more back up to 1m2f on comeback; that was just his second run in almost a year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (12/1 -118%)Damascus Steel |
12/1(-118%) | (4) Damascus Steel 12/1, Travelled well beaten a neck off 67 at Newcastle last time in behind L'Eagle Aid; 1lb swing with that rival not enough to tempt back on turf Back in form when making L'Eagle Aid work for it last time; now needs to back it up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|DQ| (5) (11/2 +31%)Percy Jones |
11/2(+31%) | (5) Percy Jones 11/2, Ran to form beaten 1l off 72 over 1m7f at Doncaster last time; trainer in form; knocking on the door last couple; should be thereabouts Wants good test at this trip; arrives in decent form but looked to have no excuses latest. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

The unexposed MOON ANGEL opened her account with a victory at Salisbury on her seasonal debut and first start for Stuart Williams' yard. Marco Ghiani could afford to ease her down in the final strides and the daughter of Time Test should have more to offer. L'Eagle Aid returned the determined winner at Newcastle and will likely remain competitive, while Percy Jones drops back in trip with a shout.

The lightly raced MOON ANGEL is taken to build on her comeback win, which came off the back of a nine-month layoff.

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (12) (18/1 -50%)Street Life |
18/1(-50%) | (12) Street Life 18/1, Bit in hand scored by 2 1/2l off 54 at Southwell in May; fifth beaten 5l off 60 last time; took a step backwards latest; more needed at this level Paid late for going with a strong pace at Haydock; holds each-way claims from a handy draw. |

22/1(+12%) | (5) Vince L'amour 22/1, Below par beaten 8l in a handicap at Hamilton last time; generally out of form; blinkers first time; enjoys making it; can make presence felt Three wins came on soft/heavy ground; much will hinge on how he responds to headgear. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (16/1 +36%)Never Dark |
16/1(+36%) | (2) Never Dark 16/1, Made too much use of beaten 8l in a handicap at Hamilton last time; generally out of form; enjoys making it; struggled last couple, but could bounce back second run after wind-op Best on soft going; has to improve back from wind surgery; due to run 8.25 here last night. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (66/1 -230%)Smooth Silesie |
66/1(-230%) | (11) Smooth Silesie 66/1, Beaten 5l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; generally out of form; more needed A few ordinary efforts this season; needs much more if she's to overcome stall 9. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (15/2 -15%)South Parade |
15/2(-15%) | (3) South Parade 15/2, Beaten 3l off 77 at Redcar last time; eased 2lb; below par last couple after a good spell of consistent form; chance Better than ever in defeat this year and stall 5 is fine for one happiest up front; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (7/2 +0%)Rosenpur |

33/1(-106%) | (10) Rock N Roll Rocket 33/1, Scored by a neck off 70 at Wolverhampton three starts back; ninth beaten 14l off 73 last time; bit to find Little room for manoeuvre off this mark and it's hard to know what to expect as usual. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

BANG ON THE BELL made all against the rail when scoring at Windsor in April. John Jenkins' six-year-old has drawn the inside rail here and another bold bid from the front is anticipated only 2lb higher than his Windsor success. South Parade enters calculations off her current mark back in this lower grade, while Street Life had been in fine fettle before disappointing at Haydock and could bounce back.

In first-time blinkers a chance is taken on DICKIEBURD, who ran well in defeat a few times here off higher marks last summer.

1st (3) (13/2 +13%)Holguin |
13/2(+13%) | (3) Holguin 13/2, Ran to form 4 1/2l third in a handicap at Ascot most recent run; wide draw; placed in both UK starts this term; more needed Useful handicap efforts last twice but they are short level he showed to win this in 2023. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (11/1 -120%)Witness Stand |
11/1(-120%) | (4) Witness Stand 11/1, Very possibly made too much use of beaten 4 1/4l in Cammidge Trophy (Listed) over 6f at Doncaster last time; returning from a break; Listed winner last term; in the mix Below par in two outings in the spring but was a Listed winner for previous yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (6/4 +55%)Marvelman |
6/4(+55%) | (8) Marvelman 6/4, Yard has won last two runnings of race; caught too far back on stands' side and first time on fast ground down the field in Jersey Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot most recent; in good form prior; top course trainer; leading claims Newmarket Listed second boosted; excuse at Royal Ascot since; can bounce back with bang. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (6/1 +25%)Benevento |
6/1(+25%) | (6) Benevento 6/1, On less favoured stands' side but ran poorly down the field in Jersey Stakes (Group 3) at Ascot most recent; trainer in form; may contend Listed winner at two; fourth in Craven on return but well held twice since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (8/1 0%)Rebel's Gamble |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (15/2 -50%)Annaf |
15/2(-50%) | (1) Annaf 15/2, Ran to form second beaten a neck in Chipchase Stakes (Group 3) over 6f at Newcastle latest; dual group winning horse; can make presence felt but probably better over 6f Good second in 6f AW Group 3 two weeks ago; just as effective at 7f; should go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (18/1 -260%)Carrytheone |
18/1(-260%) | (2) Carrytheone 18/1, Bit in hand won a handicap at Ascot over 8f by 2l last time; returning from long layoff, but in good form when last seen; tends to need the run Did well in top handicaps in 2024, including Ascot win; form claims if primed for return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

The 2023 winner Holguin finished third in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot and has solid claims. However, he has plenty to find on these terms with WITNESS STAND, who landed a Listed race over 7f at Newbury in fine style last term and is versatile in regards to the ground. Marvelman is not easily dismissed back at this level, given his yard has won the last two renewals.

Andrew Balding's MARVELMAN had an excuse at Royal Ascot and can bounce back with a bang.

15/2(+46%) | (12) Veydari 15/2, Raced freely beaten 3l off 76 at Hamilton last time; below par in previous two starts; mark easing; outside chance Neither run for new yard has been without hope; good draw but drying ground not ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (9/2 +0%)Queue Dos |
9/2(+0%) | (10) Queue Dos 9/2, Well backed when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off 71 at Wolverhampton last time in first-time blinkers (retained); significant jockey booking; serious contender Improving filly who is 2-3 around a left-hand bend; solid contender. |

22/1(+12%) | (11) Green Pursuit 22/1, Beaten 9l in a handicap over 7f at York last time, perhaps not stay; can do better back down in trip; step forward needed Return to 6f and Class 4 could see him bounce back to April's improved efforts; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (9/4 +50%)Easy Peeler |
9/4(+50%) | (2) Easy Peeler 9/4, Quickened best and improved again scored by a neck off 79 at York penultimate start; unlucky fourth beaten 2l off 83 last time; trainer in form; threat Unexposed filly; good win at York last month and a solid effort against her elders latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (17/2 -6%)Lord Roxby |
17/2(-6%) | (1) Lord Roxby 17/2, Probably improved ridden more prominently scored by a short-head off 78 at Hamilton three starts back; step backwards eighth beaten 5l off 85 last time; shortlisted Midfield at York last time but progressive beforehand; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (33/1 +34%)Lesley's Boy |
33/1(+34%) | (6) Lesley's Boy 33/1, Yard has won 2 of last 9 runnings of race; below par down the field in a handicap at York most recent; cheekpieces first time; bit to find Well handicapped on 2yo best but badly out of sorts this year; cheekpieces now tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (18/1 -157%)Musical Angel |
18/1(-157%) | (8) Musical Angel 18/1, Suited by fast ground when winning a maiden at Brighton by a neck last time; top course trainer; up 6lb; contender Improved effort to win a Brighton maiden last month; this tougher and she's drawn wide too. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

16/1(-146%) | (4) Noble Victory 16/1, 7l third in a handicap at Southwell most recent run; off a short-break; good form prior; interesting if taking to surface on turf debut 6f AW winner; run okay in his two handicaps; needs more now switched to turf. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (17/2 +23%)My Mate Kev |
17/2(+23%) | (7) My Mate Kev 17/2, Travelled best, but debatable whether anything left at the line scored by 2 1/4l off 70 at Newmarket penultimate start; fifth beaten 4 1/2l off 78 last time; significant jockey booking; may have hit ceiling off this mark Newmarket win (Class 5) in May; failed to handle Ripon last time; can bounce back quickly. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MIRACULOUS remains unexposed and he showed plenty of pace when a close fourth at Newmarket a couple of weeks ago. With that in mind, Roger Varian's gelding merits plenty of respect off the same mark here. Noble Victory is capable of going well if transferring his all-weather form to the turf, while Easy Peeler edges out Musical Angel and Queue Dos to be the pick of the remainder.

Fillies Queue Dos and Easy Peeler are high on the list but LORD ROXBY could still have more to offer.

5/1(+23%) | (4) Spirit Of Jenny 5/1, Slowly away fourth beaten 6l in a novice over 6f at Southwell latest; trainer in form; better effort on debut on turf; in the mix Good second on debut and subsequent lesser effort is excusable; big player from stall 1. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (15/2 -150%)I Can Imagine |
15/2(-150%) | (5) I Can Imagine 15/2, Comfortably held in a handicap over 1m at Newmarket (July) last time; cheekpieces first time; down in trip; squeak Game second at Lingfield last month but not so well drawn here and well held since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (15/8 +46%)Rye |
15/8(+46%) | (3) Rye 15/8, Second beaten a length in a handicap over 6f at Goodwood latest; back to back places since handicapping; chance back in maiden company Moves back up in trip after 6f second on last month's handicap debut; high on the list. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (40/1 -21%)Mary Anne Maximus |
40/1(-21%) | (7) Mary Anne Maximus 40/1, Raced freely well beaten in a novice over 1m at Thirsk latest; struggled in opening two starts; more needed Soundly beaten at huge odds on her first two starts (7.4f/1m). |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

LATYNINA arrives here on the back of two seconds in similar contests over 7f last month and it would be no surprise to see the daughter of Expert Eye go one better on this occasion. That said, Rye has also been knocking on the door of late and should not be underestimated as a result. The shortlist is completed by Spirit Of Jenny and I Can Imagine.

She is becoming very expensive to follow but LATYNINA did nothing wrong when a clear second at Lingfield three weeks ago.

4/1(+64%) | (1) Percy Shelley 4/1, Raced freely second beaten 7 1/2l in a handicap at York latest; in good form without winning, but long losing run spans back to early days in France in 2022; leading player Placed off today's mark over 1m6f on last two appearances; likely contender again. |

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

WHATSGOINGONMARVIN improved significantly when stepped up to 1m5f on his handicap debut at Ayr on Monday. The son of Camelot appeared to have plenty in hand on that occasion and is hard to oppose with his rider's claim negating the 6lb penalty. Tailorman and Polling Day are recent course winners to consider but they will need to find more off their new marks, while Bulldog Spirit completes the shortlist.

Bottomweight WHATSGOINGONMARVIN (nap) made a winning handicap debut when upped markedly in trip on Monday and can overcome a penalty.

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.
