The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Returning to 1m shouldn't inconvenience Epsom Faithfull and she can go well in her attempt to follow up last month's 7f success at this venue. Sandy Paradise was a close third in that race and enters the equation with a 3lb pull this time. However, GREAT BLASKET appeals most at this trip and on these terms, so shades the vote off just 2lb above his last winning mark. Cosmos Raj completes the shortlist.

GREAT BLASKET is still going the right way and probably would have won at Wolverhampton last time had he enjoyed a clear passage, so he's worth chancing to gain compensation. Epsom Faithfull did well to get up late here recently, so she's an obvious danger and Monopolise is a threat from a lenient mark.

Preference is for GREAT BLASKET who did best of those held up when a close third at Wolverhampton a week ago.

A few of these are old rivals the likes of Dors Toyboy, Daring Guest and Rivas Rob Roy can all be fancied to have a say if they give their running. However, it may pay to stick with last-time-out winner SIR TITAN, who should have no issues whatsoever with dropping back to this distance after winning over 1m here last month. A 2lb higher mark is hardly insurmountable for the selection.

RIVAS ROB ROY turns out again before a 3 lb rise for last week's near miss over 1m here kicks in and could be the way to go if still as effective over 7f. Recent course scorer Sir Titan and Mark Usher's Outreach also arrive in form and are respected, while Dulcet Spirit is well capable in this grade on her day and needs keeping an eye on in the betting under Rossa Ryan.

Rivas Rob Roy is ahead of the assessor but a solid alternative is DORS TOYBOY, while Dulcet Spirit is also interesting.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Runner-up in each of his three previous starts, INFLUENCE has done very little wrong and sets the standard in this ordinary-looking maiden. Rascal Recknell showed stacks of promise at Kempton last month on just his second career start, so is second choice based on his obvious potential. Marching Mac, a stablemate of the selection, has something to recommend him on pedigree and is also worth a betting check.

INFLUENCE will be suited by 7f and just shades the vote over Rascal Recknell, who surely has races in him also.

This can go to RASCAL RECKNELL who must have a fine chance if settling better than when narrowly beaten at Kempton last time.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Bradman arrives on the back of a workmanlike victory over 1m4f at Wolverhampton four days ago and should be be able to make his presence felt again, but the combination of the drop in distance and a 6lb penalty will make life tougher for Charlie Fellowes' gelding. With that in mind, preference is for the class-dropping KHAMSIN, who ran with promise in fourth on his handicap debut over a mile at Southwell last month. Bas Bleu and Claxton Bay appeal most of the remainder.

A winner at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start, LIVINTHELIFE likely would have benefited from a stronger gallop when fourth at Kempton on Wednesday and, back down in trip, he's fancied to be seen in a better light. The hat-trick seeking Bradman and old rival Something To Do are others fancied to figure.

Preference is for KHAMSIN whose latest fourth at Southwell is working out very well, while he shapes as though this trip will suit.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

ROLYPOLYMOLY was making his first start on the Flat for this stable when finishing a running-on second over an inadequate 1m2f last month and, back up to 2m off an unchanged mark, he may be able to get his blinkered-head home in front. The Craftymaster rates as the main danger to the selection but he will need to defy a career-high mark in order to take the gold medal. Easy Equation made a pleasing start to life with Charlie Fellowes when finishing second over an extended 2m at Southwell on his latest outing and is likely to enter the reckoning.

THE CRAFTYMASTER has gone from strength-to-strength in staying handicaps in recent weeks, digging deep under pressure to bring up the hat-trick at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago. He gets the vote to defy the assessor again and complete the 4-timer. Easy Equation produced a solid first effort for his new yard when second at Southwell recently and he's feared, ahead of Winklevi and Rolypolymoly.

Despite still having to prove himself on Polytrack, THE CRAFTYMASTER (nap) is taken to extend his winning sequence to four.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

BOOM BOOM POW gave the impression that her turn to be in the winner's enclosure may be imminent when being collared close home over 6f at Chelmsford most recently and, off an unchanged mark, she looks sure to make her presence felt once more. Last-time-out winner Nubough warrants consideration, but a 4lb penalty asks another question of him, while Savannah Smiles is taken to fill the frame after an admirable second-placed finish off the same mark over C&D last week.

Having scored over C&D in December, SASSY REDHEAD wasn't seen to best effect when second (to Nubough) here recently and, if more goes her way from the ideal draw, she could get back to winning ways. Several others arrive in form but Boom Boom Pow and Savannah Smiles could emerge as the main dangers.

In receipt of weight all round, SAVANNAH SMILES gets the verdict, with Sassy Redhead second choice and Vitalline also feared.

PABLO DEL PUEBLO was third in a higher grade over C&D nine days ago and a reproduction of that level of form would give him a big chance in a race of this nature. Sir Rodneyredblood failed to fire last time but is a player based on his previous success at Chelmsford, while Thank The Lord and Darlo Pride are also noted.

THANK THE LORD is well drawn for a prominent racer and can strike for the second time this winter. Glamorous Express has taken well to AW recently and is second choice ahead of Darlo Pride.

Preference is for GLAMOROUS EXPRESS who has taken well to Polytrack and surely has another race in him on this surface
