Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to reliably predict the horses that will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places. However, 18/1 (5) TOP ATTRACTION may not do well based on their previous performance and high odds, while 3/1 (3) FIFTY SENT and 2/1 (1) PALLAS LORD have both won on this course and could potentially be contenders. 4.5/1 (6) TAFSIR also had a good showing in their previous race and should not be underestimated. 5/1 (4) KARDINYA is described as unreliable and vulnerable, so they may be less likely to finish in a top position. Ultimately, further research and analysis would be necessary to make more informed predictions.

Fifty Sent may prove popular here with the Michael Dods team in winning form, but he will need to step up on his C&D third if he wants to get the better of TAFSIR at these weights. The selection ran on well to be beaten less than a length over this trip last week and gets in here off 1lb lower in the handicap. Pallas Lord might also get involved dropping in trip after weakening over further at Catterick.

PALLAS LORD failed to fire on turf last time but he was runner-up in back-to-back C&D handicaps prior to that and is presented with a good opportunity to resume winning ways. He may have most to fear from the filly Tafsir, who was a close third here last week. Fifty Sent is best of the rest.

Pallas Lord can fare better back on AW but FIFTY SENT may leave last month's reappearance behind him and gets the nod.

1st: 1.2/1 (7) CRYSTAL MARINER 2nd: (11) JO'S RAINBOW 3rd: 8/1 (8) ELUSIVE EMPIRE

With very little form to work with, Sir Michael Stoute's CRYSTAL MARINER stands out after coming home third on his only start at Pontefract. Slowly away that day and shaping as if the experience would not be lost on him, the three-year-old makes a good bit of appeal. He may prove tough to beat, though newcomers Lion's Pride, a son of Roaring Lion, and Territories colt Elusive Empire cannot be overlooked.

LION'S PRIDE is bred to be at least useful and is evidently quite highly regarded given he holds a Group 2 entry at Royal Ascot, so he's selected to get his career off to the perfect start. Crystal Mariner shaped with plenty of promise first time up at Pontefract 4 weeks ago and rates a sure-fire improver, while Open Choice is another who's likely to build on encouraging debut.

Crystal Mariner sets the standard and is open to improvement, but the well-bred LION'S PRIDE is taken to make a winning debut.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, the most likely horses to finish in the top three are 1.38/1 (8) SNAFIYA, 5.5/1 (1) BA'HOA, and 7.5/1 (3) EXPONISTA. 1.38/1 (8) SNAFIYA has already shown promise in a previous race and is expected to improve. 5.5/1 (1) BA'HOA has a strong breeding and the stable has had success with their 2-year-olds. 7.5/1 (3) EXPONISTA is a notable newcomer with a strong pedigree and the stable has a good record of getting their horses ready for their debuts. The market may provide further clues as to the chances of these horses.

Unless there is something special among the unraced contingent then George Boughey's Nottingham second SNAFIYA is going to prove tough to beat. Only beaten a neck that day after a slow start, she will know her job now and could put her experience to good use. Archie Watson has a good record with his all-weather juveniles which suggests Ba'hoa is worth noting, while Raknah and Mystical Illusion also look the part on paper and could go well.

SNAFIYA displayed plenty of promise when runner-up on debut at Nottingham 7 days ago, and with that experience entitled to count for plenty in this field, she earns the vote with improvement expected. There are a host of appealing newcomers in opposition though, Raknah, Ba'hoa and Mystical Illusion a trio to note in the betting for clues.

An interesting maiden in which MYSTICAL ILLUSION, an early foal from an extremely fast family, might be worth chancing.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

1st - 1.88/1 (5) WASDALE 2nd - 6/1 (4) RAVEN'S UP 3rd - 4.5/1 (3) TYKE

WASDALE was worth more than the winning margin suggests when successful over C&D in February, and the unexposed daughter of Twilight Son may be capable of better despite a 4lb elevated mark. Project Black should appreciate the return to a synthetic surface and is considered, while handicap debutant Tyke is open to further improvement and could be suited by a drop in trip.

WASDALE appeared to win with more in hand than the margin of victory would suggest over C&D in February and this 4 lb higher mark should be well within her reach. Though Tyke was safely held at Doncaster last time, he was a pretty decisive winner on debut at Southwell and is preferred to Let's Go Hugo for forecast purposes.

Wasdale is on the up but PROJECT BLACK (nap) looked promising at two and can leave his disappointing reappearance well behind him.

1st: 3.5/1 (7) ELZAAL 2nd: 7/1 (5) GLORIOUS RIO 3rd: 5.5/1 (9) SUGAR BABY

A few with chances, but the progressive ELZAAL gets the nod. A winner of five of his last six starts, he can continue his ascendency for a trainer who has enjoyed plenty of success with his sprinters over the years. Saaheq struck under Mia Nicholls at Chelmsford last month and is entitled to go well once again, while Sugar Baby, who was narrowly denied over C&D when last seen, can also make his presence felt.

CARIBBEAN SUNSET evidently isn't the easiest to train but he ran well on the back of a lengthy absence when runner-up over 6f here early last year and from a career-low mark he could just be worth chancing to make a bold bid back from 14 months off. Sugar Baby appeals as being on a handy mark and is feared, along with Princess Karine. Elzaal, who has been prolific over this C&D, also merits respect.

Elzaal and Saaheq are solid but it might be worth taking a flier on the class-dropping PRODIGIOUS BLUE back at 5f.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, the horses that are likely to finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd are: 1st: 4.5/1 (6) EYES 2nd: 4.5/1 (5) MARTINEO 3rd: Return

It might be worth chancing that EYES (fourth) can build on what was a promising effort over C&D last time out. The mare tends to go well here and, having dropped 1lb in the handicap, she finds herself on an attractive mark in comparison to her peak form. Written Broadcast is also considered as switching to the all-weather may help him reproduce the sort of form which saw him win at Wolverhampton in March. Martineo is noted as well.

Poor stuff with EYES taken to resume winning ways after a good effort here 6 weeks ago. Martineo and Written Broadcast are feared.

Written Broadcast can go well but EYES looked on the way back when fourth here last time in a race that represents solid form.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 4.5/1 (6) ASDAA and 2/1 (3) WINDSOR PASS seem to be the strongest contenders for the top 3 positions. 4.5/1 (6) ASDAA is fully effective at the course and could get an easy lead, which makes him a big player. 2/1 (3) WINDSOR PASS has had two good runs for her new yard and was a good second at the course in March. 3.5/1 (2) ANIF could also give a good account and finish in the top 3.

WINDSOR PASS has a solid chance of breaking her maiden and is taken to come good on just her third run for current connections. Formerly trained in Ireland by Jessica Harrington, the daughter of Lope De Vega has gone well in both starts since she returned from a long break and, having gone close over 7f here on her penultimate outing, she ticks plenty of boxes. Anif and Young Fire are the main dangers.

WINDSOR PASS wasn't ideally placed when fourth at Lingfield recently and is probably better judged on her solid comeback effort here in March. She appeals as the most likely winner, with Young Fire and Anif taken to fill the places.

Young Fire and Windsor Pass are feared but ASDAA may enjoy a tactical advantage and is marginally preferred.
