The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(5) Golden Duke 8/1, Followed a good run with a below-par one when ninth of 11 in handicap (11/2) at Kempton (6f) 8 months ago. Caused a surprise when winning this corresponding event last year (from 3 lb lower) so merits consideration provided he's ready to roll on reappearance. Lacks a recent run but won this last year so is worth a second look.

3
1st (3) (4/1 +27%) Minnesota Lad
4
4/1(+27%)
(3) Minnesota Lad 4/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Wasted no time getting back on track and unlucky not to finish a little closer when fourth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (6f, firm, 6/1) 3 weeks ago, hampered approaching last ½f. Can build on that. On a lengthy losing sequence but fair 4th at Haydock last time and might not be far away.

10
2nd (10) (5/1 +0%) Showtime Mahomes
5
5/1(+0%)
(10) Showtime Mahomes 5/1, Again flattered to deceive when push came to shove when fifth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft, 9/2) 18 days ago. Back on a workable mark but seemingly isn't one to rely on in the heat of battle. Just one win from last 20 starts but encouraging run last time and could be thereabouts.

3rd (4) (12/1 -50%) Bright
12
12/1(-50%)
(4) Bright 12/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. Probably remained in form when eighth of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 15/2) 17 days ago, held when short of room final 50 yds. Two-time AW winner; hung left at Salisbury last time on first encounter with fast ground.

4th (8) (7/2 +42%) Crypto Quest
3.5
7/2(+42%)
(8) Crypto Quest 7/2, C&D winner. 4/1, attracted support but failed to repeat previous effort when fifth of 8 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, good to firm) just under 6 weeks ago. Down in grade so plenty to like with Rossa Ryan an eye-catching jockey booking. Failed to settle at Carlisle last time; went close at Catterick previously; C&D winner.
5th
9
5th (9) (20/1 -25%) Havana Pursuit
20
20/1(-25%)
(9) Havana Pursuit 20/1, Always behind after 8 months off when last of 9 in handicap (22/1) at Ripon (6f, good to firm) 23 days ago. His best form last year came when ridden much closer to the pace so no surprise to see positive tactics reemployed. Beaten a long way on reappearance but may have needed the run; won twice last year.
6th
6
6th (6) (28/1 -133%) Delagate This Lord
28
28/1(-133%)
(6) Delagate This Lord 28/1, Had a good season at Bath last year, winning 3 times. 7/1, run best excused given his draw/track position when last of 13 in handicap there (5.7f, soft) 9 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Robyn Brisland and this veteran is worth a market check. 3-5 last season; makes stable debut after an absence but can go well fresh; not ruled out.
7th
2
7th (2) (25/1 -355%) Dandy Dinmont
25
25/1(-355%)
(2) Dandy Dinmont 25/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 13/2, ran one of lesser races when sixth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good) 9 days ago. Must bounce back. Went close three starts ago; tends to be kept to 5f nowadays but he's still respected.
8th
7
8th (7) (33/1 -371%) Master Dandy
33
33/1(-371%)
(7) Master Dandy 33/1, Possibly needed the run making turf debut after 3 months off when fifth of 7 in handicap (9/2) at Yarmouth (7f, soft) just over 5 weeks ago. May well build on that effort. Lightly raced 4yo; pulled hard over 7f at Yarmouth and could benefit from the return to 6f.
9th
11
9th (11) (250/1 -5456%) J R Cavagin
250
250/1(-5456%)
(11) J R Cavagin 250/1, C&D winner. Well-backed 3/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good) 26 days ago. Solid each-way claims. Third over 5f at Nottingham last time but could be vulnerable to stronger stayers at 6f.
13:35 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
With Alex Jary taking 5lb off his back, GOLDEN DUKE effectively runs off 2lb lower than when he won this corresponding race last year and is an attractive option with ground conditions likely to suit. Fellow course winner J R Cavagin also has a lot going for him and rates a player based on previous form, while Showtime Mahomes and Crypto Quest also enter calculations off competitive marks.
A competitive opener in which the suggestion is CRYPTO QUEST, who has hit the crossbar a couple of times already this year and the booking of Rossa Ryan catches the eye. Minnesota Lad looked unlucky not to finish a little closer at Haydock earlier this month, so he heads up the opposition, with last year's surprise winner Golden Duke and J R Cavagin rounding off the shortlist.
C&D winner CRYPTO QUEST went close at Catterick two starts ago and can bounce back from a lesser run at Carlisle.
(4) New Century 13/8, Kameko colt who attracted support and shaped with plenty of encouragement when fourth of 9 in minor event at Lingfield (6f, AW, 8/1) earlier this month, running on late under mainly hands-and-heels riding. Should make considerable progress upped in trip. Kept on well for fourth over 6f on debut and open to improvement now upped to7f.

2nd (1) (5/1 -82%) Consolidation
5
5/1(-82%)
(1) Consolidation 5/1, 60,000 gns yearling, 300,000 gns 2-y-o, Too Darn Hot colt who shaped encouragingly amidst greenness when sixth of 12 in maiden at Sandown (7f, good) on debut 2 weeks ago, getting the idea late on and spared a hard race (finished with running left). Sure to improve on that. 300,000gns breeze-up buy; denied clear run on debut; could take a sizeable step forward.

3rd (2) (10/3 -33%) Field Of Gold
3.333333
10/3(-33%)
(2) Field Of Gold 10/3, Foaled March 3. €530,000 foal, Kingman colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 1m Zanbaq and 2-y-o 7f winner Lunar Eclipse. Dam, 7f winner, sister to 7f-13f winner Puissance de Lune and 1m/8.3f winner Zabeel Prince (both very smart). Noteworthy newcomer. 530,000euros foal; half-brother to Listed winner Zanbaq; could play leading role on debut.

4th (6) (350/1 -5733%) Wiltshire Lad
350
350/1(-5733%)
(6) Wiltshire Lad 350/1, Foaled February 23. 190,000 gns yearling, Wootton Bassett colt. Dam unraced out of high-class winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 7f winner) The Fugue, won Prince of Wales's Stakes/Irish Champion Stakes. Yard's newcomers usually come on for the run. Cost 190,000gns; yard's sole 2yo this year was a well-backed winner; respected on debut.
5th

5th (3) (400/1 -3233%) Glittering Legend
400
400/1(-3233%)
(3) Glittering Legend 400/1, Foaled March 17. 67,000 gns yearling, Too Darn Hot colt. Half-brother to smart winner up to 8.5f Megallan and 1¼m winner Super Chief. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to top-class winner up to 1½m (Derby/Prix de l'Arc de Triomphe) Golden Horn. Half-brother to Group 3 winner Megallan; should have a future but may be one for later on.
6th

6th (5) (350/1 -4275%) U S Grant
350
350/1(-4275%)
(5) U S Grant 350/1, Foaled May 18. 42,000 gns yearling, Camelot colt. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 6f winner Astaire and useful 1½m-15f winner Shoshone Warrior. Dam unraced. Half-brother to connections' Middle Park winner Astaire; trainer has some promising 2yos.

14:10 Doncaster Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Not much went right for CONSOLIDATION on his racecourse debut at Sandown a fortnight ago but the son of Too Darn Hot, who cost 300,000gns as a yearling, finished the race strongly once he saw daylight and could be hard to beat given he should be a good deal wiser this time. New Century also performed promisingly on his introduction in a similar race at Lingfield and also commands respect. Field Of Gold, a 530,000-euros son of Kingman, appeals most of the newcomers.
Some powerful connections represented in this strong-looking novice and it's CONSOLIDATION who gets the nod to build on his debut effort having finished with running left at Sandown earlier this month. New Century shaped with plenty of encouragement over an inadequate trip at Lingfield recently, so he can provide most resistance switched to turf, with Field of Gold making most appeal of the newcomers.
300,000gns breeze-up buy CONSOLIDATION displayed considerable promise on his recent debut at Sandown and earns the vote.
(8) Novello Lad 11/8, Ran well when third of 9 in handicap (6/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago, every chance still 1f out. Should be able to win races for current yard so one to take seriously. Close third at Thirsk three weeks ago and a first win may well be imminent.
2
7
2nd (7) (10/1 -150%) Wichahpi
10
10/1(-150%)
(7) Wichahpi 10/1, Wasted no time putting a rare poor effort behind her when winning 7-runner handicap at Catterick (6f, soft, 7/2) just over 5 weeks ago, making all. Up 4 lb and she should be bang there again. Won at Catterick (6f, soft) last month but needs to prove she can do it on better ground.
3
10
3rd (10) (25/1 -178%) Sergeant Mayer
25
25/1(-178%)
(10) Sergeant Mayer 25/1, 14/1, below form tenth of 19 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 12 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive. 11-race maiden but has been finding trouble in running; may be capable off current mark.
4
5
4th (5) (33/1 -725%) High Violet
33
33/1(-725%)
(5) High Violet 33/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, showed further progress when second of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 6/1) 17 days ago. Can make presence felt. Runner-up at Salisbury this month and leading claims if backing up that performance.
5th
6
5th (6) (300/1 -2627%) Raft Up
300
300/1(-2627%)
(6) Raft Up 300/1, Winner at Newcastle in May. 12/1, ran poorly though was on the unfavoured far side when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good) 15 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Flopped at Nottingham last time but in good form previously and not ruled out.
6th
11
6th (11) (350/1 -2088%) Chillout Charlie
350
350/1(-2088%)
(11) Chillout Charlie 350/1, Wasn't seen to best effect when seventh of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Down another 3 lb but more needed to register a first success. Seven-race maiden who is yet to threaten and others are more compelling.
7th
1
7th (1) (150/1 -2043%) Taygar
150
150/1(-2043%)
(1) Taygar 150/1, 10/1, ran better than on reappearance without returning to form when sixth of 9 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to soft) 17 days ago, never nearer. More needed to add to his debut success. Only sixth on both outings this year and needs something extra.
8th
4
8th (4) (350/1 -2400%) Ottoman Force
350
350/1(-2400%)
(4) Ottoman Force 350/1, 15/2, below form over a longer trip when seventh of 9 in handicap at Salisbury (7f, good) 12 days ago, going with little fluency. Cheekpieces back on. Dropping down the weights but hasn't really threatened this year in his three handicaps.
9th
3
9th (3) (400/1 -1500%) Stars Away
400
400/1(-1500%)
(3) Stars Away 400/1, Hooded for 1st time, ran poorly when last of 4 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 28/1) 3 months ago. Has had a wind operation since last seen and a tongue strap is added ahead of this handicap debut. Close 3rd on debut but well beaten the next twice; needs to raise her game on h'cap debut.
10th
2
10th (2) (66/1 -313%) Bandello
66
66/1(-313%)
(2) Bandello 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 50/1, offered little when twelfth of 15 on handicap debut at Haydock (6f, good to soft) just under 5 weeks ago. Plenty more required. Down the field at 50-1 on h'cap debut, but on soft going; lightly raced & not written off.
11th
9
11th (9) (300/1 -4186%) Royal Justice
300
300/1(-4186%)
(9) Royal Justice 300/1, 9/4, third of 7 in maiden at Catterick (6f, soft) 4 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut and fancied to show more (yard also saddle Bandello). Goes handicapping off a fair mark and her pedigree provides optimism she'll improve.
14:45 Doncaster Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
The consistent WICHAHPI has made good progress in three starts this season and, after successfully stepping back up to this trip at Catterick most recently, the Bryan Smart-trained filly has a major chance of following up off just 4lb higher. High Violet dropped a hint that her turn could be near when a close second at Salisbury 17 days ago and rates a key player off the same mark. Novello Lad and Royal Justice are a couple of others to consider.
Preference is for NOVELLO LAD, who hails from a yard in good form and ran well when third at Thirsk 3 weeks ago (pair that beat him drawn much higher). High Violet took her form up a notch when finishing runner-up at Salisbury earlier in the month, so Dave Loughnane's filly can give the selection most to think about, with recent winner Wichahpi and handicap-debutante Royal Justice another couple of interesting runners, too.
Preference is for HIGH VIOLET, who holds appealing claims having finished second at Salisbury last time.
(4) Golden Myrrh 11/10, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 11/2) 24 days ago. 4 lb rise fair and holds strong follow-up claims. Won on AW on second handicap start; strong claims if transferring improvement back to turf.
2
2
2nd (2) (11/1 +0%) Princess Niyla
11
11/1(+0%)
(2) Princess Niyla 11/1, Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good, 20/1) 9 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive. Some fair runs this year for new yard but not shaping as though a win is imminent.
3
1
3rd (1) (66/1 -1220%) Hostelry
66
66/1(-1220%)
(1) Hostelry 66/1, Latest win at Thirsk in April. Bit below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Carlisle (9f, good to soft, 10/3) 18 days ago. Not out of things. Below par last time but good second previously and ran well in this last year; capable.
4
6
4th (6) (80/1 -2186%) Princess Jastar
80
80/1(-2186%)
(6) Princess Jastar 80/1, Showed some ability in a trio of starts over shorter trips and Oisin Murphy is an eye-catching booking on first crack in handicap company. Remains with potential. Makes handicap debut off a modest mark and could be suited by the step up in trip.
5th
5
5th (5) (50/1 -733%) Notre Dame
50
50/1(-733%)
(5) Notre Dame 50/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year, latest at Southwell (8.3f) in March. Back from 2-month break when creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good) 15 days ago and must enter calculations. Two AW wins; 0-6 on turf but solid efforts on grass the last twice; could be thereabouts.
6th
3
6th (3) (125/1 -793%) Oscar's Sister
125
125/1(-793%)
(3) Oscar's Sister 125/1, 25/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Others look better treated. Continues to drop down the weights but there was no return to form on reappearance.
15:20 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Cases can be made for many of these including the lightly-raced Golden Myrrh, who appeared to win with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton earlier this month. She's 4lb higher back on turf but should continue to progress, while Hostelry might not have been seen to best effect over a stiff 1m1f at Carlisle and should appreciate dropping back. A chance, however, is taken on OSCAR'S SISTER. There were positives to take from her reappearance over seven furlongs at Wetherby and the daughter of Dandy Man, who is now 10lb lower than when winning at Haydock in September 2022, could step forward.
There should be more to come from GOLDEN MYRRH, who upped her game significantly when scoring at Wolverhampton earlier this month and remains fairly treated. Notre Dame is feared most.
This could go to the 3yo PRINCESS JASTAR, who has shaped as though she will be suited by the step up in trip on this handicap debut.
(3) Beylerbeyi 7/4, Confirmed the promise of recent outings when taking 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 24 days ago. 5 lb higher now but another bold bid is anticipated. Did it nicely at Wolverhampton last time and also effective on fast turf; respected.
2
1
2nd (1) (9/2 +18%) Ardbraccan
4.5
9/2(+18%)
(1) Ardbraccan 9/2, Latest win at Nottingham in April. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (7/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago, missing break. Each-way claims. Won at Nottingham in April and has continued in good form; could be in the mix.
3
7
3rd (7) (22/1 -389%) Oakland Princess
22
22/1(-389%)
(7) Oakland Princess 22/1, Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Carlisle (6.9f, soft) 11 days ago. Still looking for first success. Hard to fancy based on last two runs but lightly raced and the step up to 1m is worth a go.
4
4
4th (4) (66/1 -371%) Ciotog
66
66/1(-371%)
(4) Ciotog 66/1, 18/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (8f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Has fallen to a workable mark. In good form on AW earlier this year but below best back on turf on his last three starts.
5th
6
5th (6) (66/1 -1000%) Khathak
66
66/1(-1000%)
(6) Khathak 66/1, Temperamental sort. One win from 23 Flat runs. Creditable second of 10 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good, 8/1) 14 days ago. Others preferred for win purposes. Needs to prove he can get the job done but he's gone close at Ripon and Chester this month.
6th
2
6th (2) (80/1 -1233%) Soames Forsyte
80
80/1(-1233%)
(2) Soames Forsyte 80/1, Bounced back to form when narrowly taking 9-runner handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 9/1) 26 days ago by neck from Ardbraccan. Just 2 lb higher now and should go well again. Posted first turf win at Nottingham this month; up just 2lb; player if backing up that run.
7th
8
7th (8) (250/1 -6150%) Bay Of Australia
250
250/1(-6150%)
(8) Bay Of Australia 250/1, Back from 7 months off when creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Entitled to build on that and must enter calculations. Reappeared with fair 4th at Ripon this month; gelded since and he's a possible contender.
8th
5
8th (5) (150/1 -355%) Tarjamah
150
150/1(-355%)
(5) Tarjamah 150/1, Hooded for 1st time, seventh of 13 in handicap at Carlisle (9f, good to soft, 66/1) 18 days ago. Hard to fancy on current form. Has tumbled down the weights but for good reason, having struggled this year.
15:55 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SOAMES FORSYTE broke his duck on the grass when winning at Nottingham last time out and a subsequent 2lb rise in the handicap looks more than fair. Ian Williams enlists the services of the in-form Oisin Murphy aboard Beylerbeyi and the Wolverhampton scorer must feature prominently in calculations, while Khathak, who finished a narrow second at Chester a fortnight ago, could prove strongest of the remainder.
BEYLERBEYI was well on top at the finish when successful at Wolverhampton earlier this month and is fancied to follow up. Soames Forsyte and Bay of Australia should also go well.
The mare ARDBRACCAN is enjoying a consistent campaign and can add to her win at Nottingham in April. Beylerbeyi is a danger.
(6) Miss Gitana 5/2, Promising sort who has upped her game since sent handicapping this term, latest when second of 6 at Beverley (12.1f, good to firm) 20 days ago. This stiffer test of stamina may suit and she looks a likely contender. Good 2nd over 1m4f at Beverley the last twice & this trip could prompt further improvement.
2
3
2nd (3) (14/1 -65%) Love Safari
14
14/1(-65%)
(3) Love Safari 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 4 in handicap at Hamilton (12.1f, soft, 16/1) 30 days ago, needing stiffer test. Up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Must improve. Went close in AW maiden last month; perhaps soft ground wasn't ideal on handicap debut.
3
4
3rd (4) (6/1 -33%) Filibustering
6
6/1(-33%)
(4) Filibustering 6/1, Winner at Redcar in May. Creditable second of 6 in handicap at Ripon (12f, good, 5/2) 8 days ago. Up in trip. Warrants respect. In good form the last twice; chance, provided the quicker ground isn't an issue.
4
1
4th (1) (7/2 +22%) Monsieur Melee
3.5
7/2(+22%)
(1) Monsieur Melee 7/2, Career best when opening account in 10-runner handicap at this course (11.9f, good) 28 days ago. Remains feasibly treated and should make another bold bid. Got up close home over 1m4f here last time; could improve again upped further in trip.
5th
5
5th (5) (150/1 -4186%) Night Horn
150
150/1(-4186%)
(5) Night Horn 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden who found some improvement when second of 5 in handicap at Sandown (14f, good) 14 days ago. That was his first crack at this trip and he looks sure to go well again. Close second of five at Sandown a fortnight ago and he's respected.
6th

6th (2) (250/1 -6150%) See The Green
250
250/1(-6150%)
(2) See The Green 250/1, Lightly-raced winner. Tailed-off last of 11 in Queen's Vase at Royal Ascot (14.2f, good to firm, 100/1) 9 days ago, slowly away. In calmer waters for handicap debut but yet to prove himself on quick ground. . Tailed off at Royal Ascot but has potential at this realistic level on handicap debut.
16:30 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The Queen's Vase was far too hot for SEE THE GREEN to handle but the Owen Burrows-trained son of Postponed made good strides prior to that trip to the Royal meeting, making it third-time lucky at Catterick, and can resume that progression. He has yet to encounter ground this quick and if it is a problem, Miss Gitana may be the one to take advantage after hitting the crossbar twice at Beverley. Night Horn and course winner Monsieur Melee command obvious attention, but none of these can be ruled out with any sort of confidence.
MONSIEUR MELEE overcame a pace bias when scoring here last month and looks worth a crack at this longer trip. He gets the nod. Night Horn rates the principal danger.
Having stayed on well to win over 1m4f here last month, MONSIEUR MELEE is open to further improvement now upped in trip once more.
(9) Glistening Nights 3/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (8/11) at Wetherby (1¼m, good to firm) 25 days ago, well on top finish. Interesting up against largely older opposition. 3yo; off the mark at Wetherby latest; had nearly 2l to spare; 3lb rise may prove lenient.

2nd (1) (7/2 +53%) Bearwith
3.5
7/2(+53%)
(1) Bearwith 7/2, Latest win at Southwell in April. 13/2, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Hamilton (11f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Merely mid-division last time but in calculations on previous unlucky fourth at Ripon.

3rd (5) (28/1 -522%) Sisterandbrother
28
28/1(-522%)
(5) Sisterandbrother 28/1, On a quick hat-trick after wins at Haydock (11.5f) and Nottingham (1¼m) this month. Better than ever and should make another bold bid. Made it 2-2 for this yard when accounting for in-form runner-up at Nottingham last week.
4

4th (7) (350/1 -3400%) Rise Hall
350
350/1(-3400%)
(7) Rise Hall 350/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2019. Off since a below-par run at Newcastle (1¼m) in February. Blinkers back on. Showed some spark in January but this 9yo has been absent since a lesser run in February.

150/1(-1567%)
(8) Star Start 150/1, C&D winner. Bit below form fifth of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (1¼m, good, 10/1) 18 days ago. Oisin Murphy takes over in the saddle from a 7 lb claimer. One to consider. Won last August and September but hasn't shone on his three outings this year.

(3) Prince Achille 300/1, Won back to back over this trip at Newcastle in March. 10/1, creditable third of 10 back there last time. Also went close on turf last summer. Progressive on AW this year and one to consider now back on turf; has won on good to firm.

(6) Bushfire 350/1, Won off a higher mark on AW last year. 6/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (1m, soft) 11 days ago. Back up in trip. Fair efforts the last twice but slower ground than today's seems preferable.

200/1(-506%)
(11) Highland Lil 200/1, Modest form, including well held with cheekpieces added (off now) on recent handicap debut. This longer trip needs to spark improvement. Early days for this 3yo but she finished down the field on her recent handicap debut.

(2) L'argent 350/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (1m, 22/1) 16 days ago but had been runner-up at Newcastle prior to that. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces on first time. May have needed his recent return to action but well beaten and others are more compelling.

100/1(-1150%)
(10) Smooth Transition 100/1, Fair form when reaching the frame in maiden/novice events on the Flat. Possibly failed to stay the trip when only a modest fourth on his recent hurdle debut. Lightly raced 3yo who begins handicap life on a realistic mark and this could be his trip.

350/1(-2817%)
(4) Olympicus 350/1, Last of 8 in handicap (17/2) at Leicester (1¼m, good) on reappearance 13 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot. Fast-ground winner last August; needs to improve a bundle for recent reappearance run.
17:05 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Although a model of consistency anyway, SISTERANDBROTHER's form has gone to a new level since joining Kevin Frost, with a Haydock victory supplemented by a hard-fought Nottingham triumph. His 5lb penalty means he is 1lb higher than his revised rating, but the Nottingham runner-up came out and went close off a 3lb higher mark so the hat-trick beckons. Glistening Nights landed the odds to break his duck at Wetherby and heads a list of dangers that also includes Prince Achille and Bearwith.
GLISTENING NIGHTS was notably strong in the market when getting off the mark at Wetherby recently and might be able to cope with a 3 lb rise. The hat-trick seeking Sisterandbrother is second choice ahead of the Oisin Murphy-ridden Star Start.
The bang-in-form SISTERANDBROTHER (nap) made it 2-2 for Kevin Frost when winning at Nottingham last week and can defy a 5lb penalty.
