1	7 1st (7) (2.25/1 +0%) Chic Colombine		2.25 2.25/1(+0%)																															(7) Chic Colombine 2.25/1, Made the most of a good opportunity when opening her account in a Newcastle maiden (7.1f) in June and progressed a fair bit after 10 weeks off when making a winning nursery debut at Haydock (7f, good to firm) last week. Carries penalty and every chance of completing the hat-trick. Looked well ahead of the handicapper at Haydock; encouragement for slow ground on paper.
2	11 2nd (11) (12/1 -33%) Heritage House		12 12/1(-33%)																															(11) Heritage House 12/1, Much improved as she got off the mark in a first-time tongue strap on nursery debut at Leicester (6f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago, leading over 1f out and just kept up to her work. Up 5 lb and likely to have more to offer. Ready winner on handicap debut last month (6f, good to firm); more to come; ground query.
3	3 3rd (3) (5.5/1 +21%) Granny Budgie		5.5 5.5/1(+21%)																															(3) Granny Budgie 5.5/1, Showed further improvement to make it 3 wins from only the 4 starts in nursery at Hamilton (6f, good to soft) just under 3 weeks ago, again helped by having a strong gallop to aim at. Hiked up another 7 lb but she could have more to come. Won 3 of her 4 starts and today's longer trip can spark further improvement; handles soft.
4	5 4th (5) (7/1 -27%) Bellarchi		7 7/1(-27%)																															(5) Bellarchi 7/1, Arrives firmly on the up, completing a hat-trick with a comfortable success at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago. Carries a penalty and has to be taken seriously in her bid for a 4-timer. Flourishing this month and created a positive impression at Hamilton latest; big chance.
5th	10 5th (10) (7/1 +13%) Jumeirah Breeze		7 7/1(+13%)																															(10) Jumeirah Breeze 7/1, Cost plenty as a yearling and found only one too good in a Newmarket maiden in June. Disappointed next time but shaped well by the end on her first run in a nursery when runner-up at Leicester (6f, good to firm) last month, finishing with a flourish. One to look out for. Second to a handicap blot on nursery debut; good mark but slow ground looks a worry.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 -40%) Summit		14 14/1(-40%)																															(9) Summit 14/1, Runner-up on second start in minor event at Newmarket (7f, good) in July but proved to be a disappointment back sprinting when fourth at Carlisle (5.8f, good to firm) just over 3 weeks ago. Cheekpieces applied for handicap debut. Backward step at Carlisle 3 weeks ago; may improve but slow ground a query; headgear now.
7th	2 7th (2) (6.5/1 +19%) Chinese Knot		6.5 6.5/1(+19%)																															(2) Chinese Knot 6.5/1, Breakthrough win came at Yarmouth (5.2f) in July and doubled tally at Chepstow over 6f a fortnight later, keeping on well. Ran creditably in her bid to complete a Racing League hat-trick when third at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago and can get in the mix again. Two wins in sprint nurseries this summer (good to soft); career best required to take this.
8th	4 8th (4) (11/1 +56%) Lincoln Legacy		11 11/1(+56%)																															(4) Lincoln Legacy 11/1, Footstepsinthesand filly who was ridden more patiently and gained second win in a Newmarket nursery (7f) last month, quickening well out wide. Not in anything like the same form under a penalty at York since, so will need to bounce back. Two wins; perhaps mitigating circumstances for latest lesser effort; career best needed.
9th	8 9th (8) (25/1 +0%) Yeah Nah		25 25/1(+0%)																															(8) Yeah Nah 25/1, Kodiac filly who got off to a winning start in professional manner at Salisbury (6f, good) last month but shaped as if amiss in a valuable sales event at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Needs to get back on track now handicapping. 6f winner on debut before struggling in a sales race 19 days ago; unexposed but needs more.
10th	6 10th (6) (22/1 +33%) Misemerald		22 22/1(+33%)																															(6) Misemerald 22/1, Zoffany filly who bagged maiden/novice events at Beverley/Ayr before a sound second under a penalty at latter-named venue last month. Shaped a bit better than the bare result on nursery debut at York (7f, good to firm) but this mark demands more. Two wins this summer but mark looks high and slower than good to soft would be a query.

LTO Selection:

13:50 Doncaster Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

CHIC COLOMBINE made light work of her opening nursery mark at Haydock when cruising to victory, and she can cope with the quick turnaround even with 6lb extra. The daughter of Seahenge has far from reached her ceiling yet and she could prove tough to beat. Granny Budgie is 3-4 so far in her young career and warrants plenty of respect off 7lb higher than her latest success at Hamilton. Summit tries first-time cheekpieces on her nursery bow and is another to be interested in.

A valuable contest in which it could pay to focus on the pair of penalised runners CHIC COLOMBINE and Bellarchi, with preference for the former having taken a significant step forward following a break when scoring on handicap debut at Haydock last week. Grant Tuer's charge arrives on the back of a hat-trick, so she's sure to give the selection plenty to think about, with Heritage House and Granny Budgie another couple fancied to go well.

Slow ground will be a new experience for CHIC COLOMBINE but she looked miles ahead of her opening mark at Haydock last week.

1	8 1st (8) (10/1 +29%) Room Service		10 10/1(+29%)																															(8) Room Service 10/1, Made a successful start at Wetherby in May. Just similar form when third over 5f at Beverley next time but he improved back from a short break when 2 lengths third of 16 in a 6f York nursery last month, nearest finish. May benefit from this slightly longer trip. Sound effort in nursery at the York Ebor festival; could go well again.
2	17 2nd (17) (1.75/1 +22%) Dragon Leader		1.75 1.75/1(+22%)																															(17) Dragon Leader 1.75/1, Unbeaten in 3 starts, looking a smart sprinter in the making when a wide-margin winner of the 22-runner Harry Beeby Premier Yearling Stakes at York (6f, good to firm) last month. Very much the one to beat. Impressive in similar event at York, taking record to 3-3; leading contender.
3	3 3rd (3) (2/1 +11%) Johannes Brahms		2 2/1(+11%)																															(3) Johannes Brahms 2/1, Siyouni colt who won a novice event at Naas on his debut and has shown very useful form when second in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) and Gimcrack at York (6f, good to firm) since. Sure to go well but he does have to concede 10 lb to Dragon Leader. Ballydoyle colt who ran well in the Gimcrack last time; big player on form.
4	10 4th (10) (14/1 -17%) Soldier's Gold		14 14/1(-17%)																															(10) Soldier's Gold 14/1, Soldier's Call colt who won Carlisle novice and Ascot nursery (both 6f) in midsummer. Good fifth of 20 in nursery at York (7f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Looks the pick of his stable's 4 contenders. Largely progressive; ran well in York nursery last time; frame possibilities.
5th	15 5th (15) (33/1 -106%) Flaccianello		33 33/1(-106%)																															(15) Flaccianello 33/1, Improved when taking her career record to 2-4 in a 6f Newmarket nursery (soft) last month. The slightly longer trip here should suit and she's an each-way contender for a stable no stranger to success in this race. Something to find on form but chance would improve granted slow ground.
6th	13 6th (13) (12/1 +14%) Lambert		12 12/1(+14%)																															(13) Lambert 12/1, Has won all 3 starts since his debut, namely a 7f Newmarket seller and novices at Yarmouth (7f) and Kempton (1m). Shorter trip now a slight concern but he appeals as the type to keep on improving. Improving sort who is bidding for a four-timer; possibilities.
7th	12 7th (12) (50/1 -100%) We Never Stop		50 50/1(-100%)																															(12) We Never Stop 50/1, Improved to win a 6f Pontefract novice in July but finished well behind Dragon Leader at York last month. Comfortably held in similar event at York but may bounce back.
8th	2 8th (2) (28/1 +15%) Grey Cuban		28 28/1(+15%)																															(2) Grey Cuban 28/1, Runner-up in 6f novice events on his first 2 outings but well behind Dragon Leader at York last time. Came up well short in the York contest won by Dragon Leader.
9th	16 9th (16) (66/1 +18%) Imperial Express		66 66/1(+18%)																															(16) Imperial Express 66/1, Better effort in 2 runs last month when 5 lengths third in 6f Newmarket maiden latterly. Yard has a good recent record in this but she'll need considerable improvement to get heavily involved. Has some ability but this looks a stiff task.
10th	1 10th (1) (40/1 -21%) Balon D'Or		40 40/1(-21%)																															(1) Balon D'Or 40/1, Fairly useful performer who was a creditable sixth of 20 in a 7f York nursery 3 weeks ago. This slightly shorter trip could be ideal but he'll need to raise his game to even reach the frame here. 0-6 since debut win and limitations look exposed; tough task on these terms.
11th	14 11th (14) (22/1 -10%) Run Boy Run		22 22/1(-10%)																															(14) Run Boy Run 22/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up over 7f at Newmarket and Chelmsford last month. Slightly shorter trip here unlikely to inconvenience and he won't need to raise his game too much to reach the frame. Looks a winner waiting to happen; interesting despite the rise in class.
12th	11 12th (11) (33/1 +34%) Watcha Matey		33 33/1(+34%)																															(11) Watcha Matey 33/1, Placed 4 times prior to finally coming good in a 7f Newmarket novice last month. Unlikely he'll be up to the task here, though. Ratings suggest he's unlikely to follow up his Newmarket win.
13th	6 13th (6) (80/1 +0%) Al Shabab		80 80/1(+0%)																															(6) Al Shabab 80/1, Fair form when third in maiden/novice events on his last 2 outings but he'll require a good deal more here. Possesses ability but has a lot to find on ratings.
14th	9 14th (9) (28/1 +0%) Vantheman		28 28/1(+0%)																															(9) Vantheman 28/1, All the better for his debut when successful in 6-runner maiden at Ayr in July. Travelled well for a long way when 5¾ lengths fifth of 22 to Dragon Leader in a similar race at York 3 weeks ago. Has the potential for better but it's hard to see him turning the tables on Clive Cox's charge. Finished 6l behind Dragon Leader at York; now worse off with that rival.
15th	18 15th (18) (18/1 -80%) Komat		18 18/1(-80%)																															(18) Komat 18/1, Made a winning debut at Redcar (5f) in April and better form in defeat at listed/Group level since, finishing fifth of 10 in the Princess Margaret at Ascot on latest start in July. Unlikely to be too far away in receipt of weight from all her rivals. Ran well in the Albany two starts ago; place possibilities on ratings.
16th	7 16th (7) (50/1 +0%) Celtic Warrior		50 50/1(+0%)																															(7) Celtic Warrior 50/1, Stepped up on debut when third of 16 in novice at Chelmsford (7f) 14 days ago but a big chunk of improvement will be needed to get heavily involved here. Looks held by Run Boy Run on latest effort.
17th	5 17th (5) (28/1 -27%) Kodiac Thriller		28 28/1(-27%)																															(5) Kodiac Thriller 28/1, Shaped well when second on 6f Windsor debut in July. Perhaps found the outing coming a bit soon when only fifth at Ascot (6f again) 12 days later. This looks a big ask but he does retain potential. Form of latest effort is working out well but this is no easy task.

14:25 Doncaster Stakes (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

JOHANNES BRAHMS sets a lofty standard in this, with a rating of 106 after his second in the Gimcrack at York, and he still has bundles of improvement in him. The son of Siyouni could prove very difficult to beat against this level of competition. The main danger is Dragon Leader, who was an impressive winner by over four lengths at York and is unbeaten in three starts, so he could have a say. Komat wasn't disgraced in fifth in the Princess Margaret at Ascot and she holds solid each-way claims.

A big field as usual for this valuable prize but it's still hard to ignore the claims of DRAGON LEADER, who romped home in a similar race at York last month and can make the most of the 10 lb he receives from likely main danger Johannes Brahms. Amo Racing pair Komat and Flaccianello should be involved in the battle for minor honours along with Room Service and Run Boy Run.

Slow ground would complicate matters to an extent but otherwise this looks a toss up between DRAGON LEADER and Johannes Brahms.

1	1 1st (1) (1.1/1 +20%) Darnation		1.1 1.1/1(+20%)																															(1) Darnation 1.1/1, Faced with softer ground, left debut form behind when a wide-margin winner of a Thirsk novice (7f) in July. Progressed again under more testing conditions when landing Prestige Stakes at Goodwood and there could be more to come over this extra furlong. Leading contender. Two wins on ground, latest in the Prestige at Goodwood; holds leading claims on form.
2	8 2nd (8) (4/1 +20%) See The Fire		4 4/1(+20%)																															(8) See The Fire 4/1, Bred to be useful and knew what was required when making a winning start in 12-runner maiden at Newmarket (7f) last month, scoring with authority. Will be suited by this longer distance and she's an interesting contender quickly upped in class. Made a successful debut at Newmarket last month; appears well regarded; interesting.
3	5 3rd (5) (14/1 -40%) Les Bleus		14 14/1(-40%)																															(5) Les Bleus 14/1, Left her 5f Sandown debut in May well behind when seeing off 13 rivals in a 6f novice at Newmarket in July. Better form since, fourth in the Prix du Calvados at Deauville last time, but others look to have more potential. Brings Group form and has progressive RPRs; could go well again.
4	4 4th (4) (5.5/1 +8%) Hard To Resist		5.5 5.5/1(+8%)																															(4) Hard To Resist 5.5/1, Proved a different proposition to on debut when opening account in minor event at Newmarket (7f) in August, showing a good attitude. Much improved again when 2 lengths third of 6 to Darnation in Prestige Stakes at Goodwood 19 days ago and could do better still upped in trip. Ties in with Darnation on Prestige running (her effort can be marked up); big player.
5th	2 5th (2) (33/1 -32%) Francophone		33 33/1(-32%)																															(2) Francophone 33/1, Made a winning debut in minor event at Ayr (7.2f) in August, despite showing signs of greenness, and unlucky not to follow up in similar event at Goodwood (1m) 18 days later, carried left in the final 1f. This is a tougher task but she's open to further progress. Solid novice performances, winning at Ayr then going close at Goodwood.
6th	3 6th (3) (66/1 -32%) Hala Abrar		66 66/1(-32%)																															(3) Hala Abrar 66/1, Overcame inexperience when winning 11-runner maiden at Kempton (7f) on debut last month, staying on to lead last ½f and well on top at the finish. Open to improvement but plenty more required in this company. Made a winning debut a Kempton but we've not rated that form highly.
7th	7 7th (7) (4.5/1 +10%) Romanova		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(7) Romanova 4.5/1, Highly tried in listed race on debut and took a big step forward from that first experience when making all in maiden at Salisbury (7f) last month, drawing clear in the final 1f. Will go on improving so she can make her presence felt in this higher grade. Impressive at Salisbury last time; very useful prospect for her first-season trainer.

15:00 Doncaster Group 2 (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Karl Burke, who won the 2017 renewal of this race with the high-class Laurens, has another live chance with DARNATION, who impressed with the manner of her victory in the Group 3 Prestige Stakes last month. That piece of form sets the bar high and recent maiden winners Romanova and See The Fire both need to take significant steps forward if they are going to trouble the selection. Therefore, Newmarket novice winner Meribella, a half-sister to the dual Group 1 winner Poet's Voice, rates as a bigger threat.

DARNATION is improving well, having no problem with testing conditions when landing the Prestige Stakes at Goodwood last time, and she can continue her progress with the step up in trip to suit. Karl Burke's filly is taken to see off the challenge of Romanova, who won in good style at the second attempt, with See The Fire completing the shortlist.

Darnation and Hard To Resist are big players on form, while ROMANOVA and See The Fire look very promising.

1	6 1st (6) (4/1 -14%) Sumo Sam		4 4/1(-14%)																															(6) Sumo Sam 4/1, Nathaniel filly who seemed to excel herself when all-the-way winner of Lillie Langtry Stakes at Goodwood (14f, heavy) 6 weeks ago. That is the best form on offer and further rain will be in her favour. Has 3 lb penalty. Recorded a wide-margin success in the Lillie Langtry; big player if that form is repeated.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 -41%) One Evening		12 12/1(-41%)																															(5) One Evening 12/1, Low-mileage filly who took another step forward when only just edged out in a listed race at York 3 weeks ago. Worth another go at this sort of trip and yard has excellent record in this (won 3 of the last 4 renewals). Went close in the Galtres; down this pack on ratings but may improve further.
3	9 3rd (9) (22/1 +12%) Lmay		22 22/1(+12%)																															(9) Lmay 22/1, Off the mark at the third attempt in a Newbury maiden in June. Better form in defeat when highly tried after, though at the same time her limitations were exposed. Her limitations, at least over 1m4f, are starting to look exposed.
4	1 4th (1) (7.5/1 -25%) Ching Shih		7.5 7.5/1(-25%)																															(1) Ching Shih 7.5/1, Useful filly who seemed to excel herself when second (clear of rest) to Arrest in the Geoffrey Freer Stakes at Newbury (13.3f, good, 20/1) 26 days ago, the emphasis on stamina serving her well. Big shout if backing that up. Appeared to run well in the Geoffrey Freer; still unexposed beyond 1m4f; possibilities.
5th	7 5th (7) (8/1 -23%) Boogie Woogie		8 8/1(-23%)																															(7) Boogie Woogie 8/1, Useful filly who confirmed improvement when second in Group 3 at Chantilly. Heavy ground an obvious excuse at Cork since and better expected now. Bidding to give top yard first win in this race. Ballydoyle filly; disappointing last time but steadily progressive otherwise.
6th	8 6th (8) (8.5/1 +29%) Crack Of Light		8.5 8.5/1(+29%)																															(8) Crack Of Light 8.5/1, Kingman filly who has made steady progress since making a winning debut at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February, winning a listed race at France before good second in Group 2 there. Went close in Group 3 at Deauville since, shaping as if worth a try at this trip. Player. Solid record on home and French soil; close third in Deauville Group 3 last time.
7th	10 7th (10) (16/1 -45%) Shamwari		16 16/1(-45%)																															(10) Shamwari 16/1, Useful filly who was off the mark at the fourth attempt at Dundalk in July. Looked sure to be involved in the finish until coming up against a wall of horses in Prix Minerve at Deauville (12.4f, good) 30 days ago. Headgear on 1st time. May do better still. Gives the impression she'll be suited by this new trip and first-time headgear.
8th	4 8th (4) (4/1 +56%) Night Sparkle		4 4/1(+56%)																															(4) Night Sparkle 4/1, Progressive for previous yard, winning all 3 starts on the Flat, including class 3 handicap at Newmarket (14f, good) 26 days ago. This not a strong race for the grade so no surprise if she made a big impact starting out for Andrew Balding. Progressive this year for Michael O'Callaghan; not dismissed on stable debut.
9th	2 9th (2) (14/1 -17%) Divine Jewel		14 14/1(-17%)																															(2) Divine Jewel 14/1, Good third in a strong York listed event on return before going down narrowly to an unexposed 3-y-o in Leopardstown Group 3. Quickly back on track when runner-up in listed race at Chester and in the mix back against own sex. Largely consistent but faces a harder task upped to Group 2 level.
10th	3 10th (3) (5/1 +9%) Golden Lyra		5 5/1(+9%)																															(3) Golden Lyra 5/1, Useful filly who ended last term with emphatic success in listed race (9.9f, heavy) at Saint-Cloud. Back to that level when 1½ lengths fourth of 10 in Prix de Pomone (Group 2) at Deauville (12.4f, soft) 26 days ago, staying on well. Considered up in trip. Major player on peak RPRs, which have been achieved on French soil.

15:35 Doncaster Group 2 (Class 1) 14f Race Class Flow

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

John and Thady Gosden have been involved with four of the last eight winners of this race and the yard boasts a strong hand again, as the improving One Evening tackles the next stage of her development. However, this is a step up in class and trip for the daughter of Galileo and it may pay to stick with proven stayer SUMO SAM, whose surprise Group 2 Lillie Langtry romp at Goodwood was a highly impressive display. Ching Shih and Boogie Woogie are also considered.

Not a strong renewal but very much a wide-open one. CHING SHIH looked suited by the step up in trip when runner-up to a smart 3-y-o colt in the Geoffrey Freer at Newbury and shades the vote back against her own sex. Sumo Sam is another who seemingly showed much-improved form when a wide-margin winner (in the mud) of the Lillie Langtry at Goodwood and further rain will enhance her claims, while One Evening his high on the shortlist given her yard's excellent record in this.

An open-looking Park Hill may go to CHING SHIH. Second choice is Sumo Sam, ahead of Golden Lyra.

1	7 1st (7) (9/1 +10%) Maximilian Caesar		9 9/1(+10%)																															(7) Maximilian Caesar 9/1, Wide-margin winner over 1m here on return and has produced creditable second-placed efforts on his last 2 outings, very much bumping into one tackling this trip for the first time at Newbury (10f, good) 26 days ago. Place claims again. Won here in May; creditable second the last twice; could go well again.
2	5 2nd (5) (4.5/1 +50%) Westerton		4.5 4.5/1(+50%)																															(5) Westerton 4.5/1, Cemented positive start in handicaps when off the mark in a Sandown maiden (10f) in June and shaped as if still in good heart when fifth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (12f, heavy, 7/2) 43 days ago, just finding the test too much in stamina-sapping conditions. Not ruled out. Has form figures of 2213 over 1m2f; solid claims back down in distance.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 +14%) Kingfisher King		3 3/1(+14%)																															(2) Kingfisher King 3/1, Confirmed debut promise when winning 11-runner minor event at Salisbury (9.9f, good to firm, 11/8) in May and having been gelded, took a big step forward when runner-up to a useful rival at Hamilton last month. Enters handicaps from fair-looking mark and should have more to offer. Solid record at novice level; looks the type to improve further and do well in handicaps.
4	8 4th (8) (4/1 +33%) Iron Lion		4 4/1(+33%)																															(8) Iron Lion 4/1, Off the mark at the fifth attempt when winning 9-runner novice at this C&D (heavy) 40 days ago, doing better ridden with more restraint. Change of tactics unlocked some improvement then and it's not out of the question that he has more to offer. Recorded a smooth 3l success in C&D novice event last month; more to come; appealing.
5th	3 5th (3) (6/1 -33%) Sisyphus Strength		6 6/1(-33%)																															(3) Sisyphus Strength 6/1, Proved to have far too many gears for her rivals when scoring in comfortable fashion at Newmarket in July and progressed again when beaten only a neck at York's Ebor Festival last month. Looks sure to go well again. Close second at York Ebor festival last time; open to further progress over 1m2f.
6th	4 6th (4) (12/1 +0%) Obelix		12 12/1(+0%)																															(4) Obelix 12/1, Winner at Newcastle on final start at 2 yrs and produced his best effort when runner-up in a 3-y-o heritage handicap at Newmarket (1¼m, good) in July. Ran respectably when fifth at York last time and holds place claims with blinkers now applied. Chance partly depends on how he responds to change of headgear.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 -100%) Wildfell		14 14/1(-100%)																															(9) Wildfell 14/1, Highly progressive since joining this stable from Kevin Ryan, completing the 4-timer over 1m here in June. Improved further when a close second in 17-runner event at Goodwood (8f, soft, 28/1) 42 days ago and he's not discounted if coping with the longer trip. Great record in 7f/1m handicaps for current yard; new trip is the question mark.
8th	1 8th (1) (6/1 -71%) If Not Now		6 6/1(-71%)																															(1) If Not Now 6/1, Successful sole start at 2 yrs and stepped up on reappearance effort when landing a 3-runner Salisbury handicap (1¼m, good to soft) with minimum fuss. Creditable fifth in the German Derby upped to 1½m at Hamburg last time and he's respected back down in trip here. 2-3 on home soil; respectable fifth in the German Derby; should have more to offer.

16:10 Doncaster Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Having finished a respectable fifth in the German Derby when last seen, If Not Now commands respect, while Obelix makes plenty of appeal for John and Thady Gosden and, given that yard's stellar recent strike-rate in this race, the son of Sea The Stars goes on the shortlist. However, SISYPHUS STRENGTH, a game second in a heritage handicap at York's Ebor meeting, arguably arrives on the back of her best effort yet and her proven effectiveness over this trip earns her the vote.

Handicap newcomer KINGFISHER KING travelled like the best horse in the contest when a close second at Hamilton last time, pulling well clear with a useful rival, and he's fancied to confirm that potential in a particularly interesting contest. Sisyphus Strength came close to supplementing her Newmarket win at York and the filly perhaps rates as the main danger, with Burglar also a leading player having seemingly reacted positively to the fitting of a hood last time.

Off a low weight, IRON LION (nap) could well follow up his C&D novice success. Kingfisher King is second choice.

1	5 1st (5) (7.5/1 -15%) In The Breeze		7.5 7.5/1(-15%)																															(5) In The Breeze 7.5/1, Posted best effort thus far when winning 11-runner handicap at Haydock (10.2f, heavy) 39 days ago, going clear. 6 lb higher now but another bold bid anticipated. Arrives on the up, stylish Haydock winner latest; not taken lightly despite a 6lb rise.
2	10 2nd (10) (7/1 +13%) Cavern Club		7 7/1(+13%)																															(10) Cavern Club 7/1, Returned to winning ways when taking 8-runner handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm, 3/1) 20 days ago. Finds himself in a stronger event now but can't be ruled out. Bounced back to winning ways in Newmarket handicap 20 days ago; up 4lb; not ruled out.
3	4 3rd (4) (18/1 -50%) Matchless		18 18/1(-50%)																															(4) Matchless 18/1, C&D winner on return in May but been disappointing in more recent starts and makes limited appeal. Cheekpieces back on. C&D winner in May but his more recent form is far less encouraging; more is needed.
4	6 4th (6) (5.5/1 +8%) Vaguely Royal		5.5 5.5/1(+8%)																															(6) Vaguely Royal 5.5/1, Lightly-raced gelding who got off the mark over C&D in June. Shaped better than distance beaten when seventh in Melrose (13.9f, good to firm) at York latest and return to shorter trip looks a good move. C&D winner; gelded before creditable York seventh last time; considered.
5th	3 5th (3) (9/1 +50%) Crystal Delight		9 9/1(+50%)																															(3) Crystal Delight 9/1, Confirmed returned to form when solid sixth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good, 18/1) 18 days ago but is still to add to his success on AW last December. Winless this term but he arrives in decent nick; in the mix eased 1lb.
6th	9 6th (9) (2.75/1 +39%) El Jasor		2.75 2.75/1(+39%)																															(9) El Jasor 2.75/1, Put disappointing York run behind him when landing 13-runner handicap at Newbury (12f, good) last month. 6 lb higher now but remains low mileage. Cheekpieces on first time. Won Newbury handicap latest; sort to do better still so merits serious consideration.
7th	7 7th (7) (7/1 -8%) Rogue Sea		7 7/1(-8%)																															(7) Rogue Sea 7/1, Upped form a notch when taking Ripon minor event in June but not progressed in handicaps since and has something to prove at present. Dual 1m2f novice winner but he's failed to kick on since sent handicapping; more required.
8th	1 8th (1) (33/1 -65%) Turntable		33 33/1(-65%)																															(1) Turntable 33/1, Ended time with Chris Wall with 2 wins at Newmarket (9f/1¼m) but hasn't been able to get competitive in a trio of outings for this yard, blowing the start the last twice. Best watched for now. Course scorer but yet to fire in three runs for his current yard; lots more is required.
9th	2 9th (2) (4.5/1 +25%) City Streak		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(2) City Streak 4.5/1, Two wins from 5 runs this season, posting career best when taking 7-runner handicap at Ascot (12f, good to soft, 6/1) latest. More needed up 4 lb here but couldn't rule out all the same. Gained his second success of 2023 at Ascot 48 days ago; up 4lb but not discounted.

16:45 Doncaster Handicap (Class 3) 12f Race Class Flow

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

EL JASOR improved for the step up to this distance when scoring narrowly at Newbury last month and, with more improvement expected, he can follow up off a 6lb higher mark. Similar comments apply to City Streak, who did it well at Ascot last time out, while In The Breeze is another to consider on the back of scoring in two of his last three starts.

HARAPPAN has looked a good prospect in a couple of outings for Iain Jardine and makes plenty of appeal on his switch to handicapping. El Jasor and In The Breeze rate the principal dangers.

The vote goes to HARAPPAN who looks open to a fair bit more progress now going into handicaps and can complete a quick hat-trick here

1	7 1st (7) (11/1 +39%) Double Jump		11 11/1(+39%)																															(7) Double Jump 11/1, Dark Angel colt who hasn't gone without promise on 2 of her 3 starts in novice company at up to 7f in recent months, albeit never a threat on qualifying run at Newbury in July. Goes handicapping now with yard in good form but others appeal more on balance. Nursery debutant who isn't entirely solid on novice form.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 -20%) Mafnood		3 3/1(-20%)																															(3) Mafnood 3/1, Fair form when reaching the frame in novice events at Newbury/Salisbury and took his form up a notch to open his account at Haydock (1m) 5 weeks ago, impressing with how he travelled. That form has substance and he's high on the shortlist making nursery debut. Form figures of 431 reflect his steady progress at novice level; respected.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +10%) Spanish Blaze		3 3/1(+10%)																															(4) Spanish Blaze 3/1, Hasn't looked entirely straightforward but he clearly possesses plenty of ability, taking his record to 2-4 when landing 7f Sandown nursery 12 days ago, impressing in how he picked up to score convincingly. Good chance he's capable of even better still. Sandown nursery success took his record to 2-4; open to further improvement.
4	1 4th (1) (2.25/1 +0%) Nellie Leylax		2.25 2.25/1(+0%)																															(1) Nellie Leylax 2.25/1, Calyx colt who is clearly very effective with give underfoot, gaining his third victory from 5 starts when landing 7-runner Haydock nursery (7f, heavy) early last month. Very much ging the right way and any further easing of the ground will likely aid his cause. Respected. 3-3 on soft/heavy, including C&D win; big player granted similar ground.
5th	2 5th (2) (25/1 -150%) The Camden Colt		25 25/1(-150%)																															(2) The Camden Colt 25/1, Displayed fairly useful form when off the mark at second attempt in a Haydock maiden (6f) in May and back to that level when third in class 2 minor event at Pontefract (6f) in July. Never figured in Super Sprint later that month but switch to handicaps more suitable now stepping up to 7f. More exposed than most of these rivals; goes beyond 6f for first time.
6th	5 6th (5) (8.5/1 -6%) Politico		8.5 8.5/1(-6%)																															(5) Politico 8.5/1, Chester maiden winner (6f) who struggled from marks in the 80's in nurseries but well served by return to forcing tactics when making all back at that venue (7f) 12 days ago. May well just lack the potential of one or two back in handicap company now. Has gained both wins at Chester; bit to prove back away from that course.
7th	6 7th (6) (10/1 +44%) Cuban Slide		10 10/1(+44%)																															(6) Cuban Slide 10/1, Wide-margin winner at Musselburgh on debut in May but hasn't kicked on since, midfield in valuable sales race at Newmarket (6f) on his latest outing 3 weeks ago. Steps up in trip for nursery debut with cheekpieces now left off. Limitations have been somewhat exposed since debut win.

17:20 Doncaster Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

NELLIE LEYLAX is really progressive and the hat-trick looks very much on the cards on the back of another smooth success at Haydock last time out. Conditions should be in his favour once more, and the son of Calyx is preferred to stylish Sandown winner Spanish Blaze and Mafnood, who should have enough pace for dropping back in trip having scored at Haydock over a mile.

MAFNOOD impressed with the way he travelled and showed improved form in the process when making his third start a winning one at Haydock (1m) 5 weeks ago. It was an effort backed up by the clock, and this drop back in trip will hold no fears, so he holds sound claims on nursery bow. Spanish Blaze impressed with his finishing effort when successful at Sandown at the start of the month and is feared, along with another going the right way, Nellie Leylax

Granted suitable ground, NELLIE LEYLAX could well show further progress and win again. Mafnood is second choice.

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.
