1	3 1st (3) (16/1 -14%) Chelsea Green		16 16/1(-14%)																															(3) Chelsea Green 16/1, Shared the spoils in 7f Sandown maiden last summer before a good second in a C&D novice. Possibly unsuited by slow ground back here on final start of 2022 but more needed now handicapping in any case. Solid C&D novice form last September and brings potential to this handicap/seasonal debut.
2	4 2nd (4) (14/1 +22%) Just Bring It		14 14/1(+22%)																															(4) Just Bring It 14/1, After 4 months off, confirmed previous promise when landing the odds in 1m Kempton handicap in March. That form doesn't look particularly strong, though, and he failed to fire back on turf at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) the following month. Won AW handicap in March and perhaps soft ground didn't suit at Nottingham last time.
3	5 3rd (5) (4.5/1 +25%) Gulmarg		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(5) Gulmarg 4.5/1, Held his form well in 2022, winning twice during the summer, and solid placed efforts both starts since returning to action in March, latterly third in 15-runner C&D handicap. Live each-way claims off the same mark. More exposed than today's opponents but he was a good third of 15 over C&D last time.
4	10 4th (10) (3.5/1 +22%) Totnes		3.5 3.5/1(+22%)																															(10) Totnes 3.5/1, Left debut effort behind when striking on return at Wolverhampton in March. Did well under the circumstances when adding to her tally at Lingfield (1m, AW) recently, and while more will be needed up 5 lb back on turf in a more competitive race, she has to enter calculations. Did well to win Lingfield AW handicap last time and she can continue to improve.
5th	6 5th (6) (12/1 +0%) Burdett Road		12 12/1(+0%)																															(6) Burdett Road 12/1, Made all when landing a 5-runner maiden at Lingfield (1m, AW) on second start for this yard in March. Subsequent sixth of 15 in a C&D handicap was no backward step and he should make his presence felt off this 1 lb lower mark. Fair sixth of 15 over C&D on handicap debut but needs to better that form this afternoon.
6th	7 6th (7) (12/1 +45%) She's Hot		12 12/1(+45%)																															(7) She's Hot 12/1, Didn't do a great deal wrong as a juvenile, hitting the target twice and runner-up on 4 occasions. Wasn't disgraced when fifth upped to 10f on return at Brighton and return to this trip no bad thing but her mark leaves little margin for error. The drop back in trip could help but she's fairly exposed and may be vulnerable once more.
7th	11 7th (11) (28/1 +0%) Yellow Lion		28 28/1(+0%)																															(11) Yellow Lion 28/1, Appeared to take a step forward when third in a 7f maiden here last month but failed to build on that at Salisbury since and jolt of improvement now handicapping. Showed promise here on 3rd of his 4 starts but not obviously well treated for h'cap debut.
8th	1 8th (1) (28/1 -75%) True Statesman		28 28/1(-75%)																															(1) True Statesman 28/1, All-weather maiden winner at 6f who impressed when taking a 7f nursery impressively at Chester last July. Couldn't build on that in 3 subsequent starts and looks vulnerable reappearing here under top-weight in this competitive handicap. Gelded. Underwhelming end to last season but could get back on track following break/gelding op.
9th	2 9th (2) (2.75/1 +21%) Acotango		2.75 2.75/1(+21%)																															(2) Acotango 2.75/1, Showed improved form to make a winning nursery debut at Kempton in September, proving a neck too strong for the re-opposing Gulmarg. Gelded ahead of solid reappearance second at Haydock (1m, good to firm), splitting a couple of progressive types, and he's a big player. Runner-up on reappearance at Haydock when finishing between two next-time-out winners.
10th	9 10th (9) (18/1 -300%) Ceanna		18 18/1(-300%)																															(9) Ceanna 18/1, Luckless sixth in a Wolverhampton novice in November and gained compensation when accounting for 12 rivals over 7f at Southwell the following month. In good hands and further progress likely upped to 1m on this turf/handicap debut. Won 7f AW novice last December and could prove to be better than her opening mark.
11th	8 11th (8) (8/1 +0%) Good Gracious		8 8/1(+0%)																															(8) Good Gracious 8/1, Showed plenty of ability in maiden/novice company on turf prior to winning nursery/AW debut at Newcastle (7f) when last seen in October. More needed up 6 lb for that narrow success but she pulled nicely clear of the rest with the second and probably has more to offer. Improved with each of her four 2yo starts and can continue to progress for her top trainer.

LTO Selection:

14:05 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

It looks best to side with ACOTANGO, who finished a good second at Haydock on his reappearance last month. He bumped into a progressive rival that day, who has subsequently followed up off a 6lb higher mark. The gelded son of Kodiac could be well handicapped nudged up 3lb in the ratings, and he's well fancied. Recent Lingfield scorer Totnes is respected back on the turf, while handicap debutant Ceanna is another who merits consideration.

Several to consider in this competitive handicap with TOTNES top of the list. The Kingman filly appeared to win with a bit left up her sleeve at Lingfield and this 5 lb higher mark may not be enough to stop her, provided she is able to translate her all-weather progression back on turf. The form of Acotango's Haydock reappearance effort is solid and he is greatly respected, while Ceanna and Good Gracious are also appealing.

Preference is for TOTNES who did well to come from the back of the pack to win at Lingfield. Acotango is a danger.

1	11 1st (11) (2.25/1 +63%) Quinault		2.25 2.25/1(+63%)																															(11) Quinault 2.25/1, Completed hat-traick with career best when winning 13-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 2 days ago. Not taken lightly even with 6 lb penalty.. Improving fast, 3-3 in handicaps, latest over C&D on Thursday; up steeply in grade here.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 +25%) Washington Heights		6 6/1(+25%)																															(4) Washington Heights 6/1, Strong travelling sort who ended last season with a fine third in the Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar (6f). Not seen to best effect on reappearance at Thirsk and duly back to best when second over C&D at the Guineas meeting. Building up a solid bank of form, fine second over C&D last time; commands major respect.
3	6 3rd (6) (4/1 -45%) Eminency		4 4/1(-45%)																															(6) Eminency 4/1, Consistent rather than progressive at 2 yrs but reappeared with an improved effort and looked unlucky not to win when fourth of 8 in 6f handicap at Kempton 31 days ago, finishing with running left after repeatedly meeting trouble. Big player off an unchanged mark. Unlucky fourth at Kempton; seeks compensation off unchanged mark; must be taken seriously.
4	5 4th (5) (16/1 +0%) Funny Story		16 16/1(+0%)																															(5) Funny Story 16/1, Won a maiden on the July Course here and a novice at Chelmsford (both 6f) last year. Never involved in Redcar Two-Year-Old Trophy final start. Switches to handiacp company on reappearance from a mark which isn't obviously generous. Binary at two, following comfortable wins with flops in Listed races; improvement required.
5th	10 5th (10) (25/1 +0%) Ararat		25 25/1(+0%)																															(10) Ararat 25/1, Kodiac colt who showed promise when runner in novices on turf/AW last autumn. In a tough race on handicap debut/reappearance but surprising if he's reached his limit after only 3 starts. Gelded since second at Wolverhampton; probably has work to do from his opening mark.
6th	9 6th (9) (50/1 +0%) Knebworth		50 50/1(+0%)																															(9) Knebworth 50/1, Bagged 3 wins last year. Respectable fourth on AW reappearance in March but has struggled in competitive events on turf since. Mark coming down but still looks up against it. All three wins on Polytrack and hasn't shown the same aptitude for turf; hard to fancy.
7th	7 7th (7) (7.5/1 -36%) Expert Agent		7.5 7.5/1(-36%)																															(7) Expert Agent 7.5/1, All the better for a gelding operation, completing a hat-trick in quite taking fashion in 12-runner handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 43 days ago. Should prove equally as effective on turf and open to further improvement. Progressive this year, 3-3 on AW; respected but has to prove he's as effective on grass.
8th	8 8th (8) (5/1 +29%) Mutaany		5 5/1(+29%)																															(8) Mutaany 5/1, Fairly useful performer. Won 6f Brighton novice on final 2-y-o start and returned with a creditable second in heavy-ground Nottingham handicap 18 days ago, no match for the improved winner but seeing off the rest comfortably. Steady improver; drying ground could be an issue but otherwise has a very solid profile.
9th	1 9th (1) (25/1 -56%) Rogue Lightning		25 25/1(-56%)																															(1) Rogue Lightning 25/1, Made a winning debut on the July Course last summer. Useful effort when second in 6f Newbury listed next time but he was well below that level when beaten 8 lengths into third on his Chantilly reappearance in March. Handicap debut. Hasn't built on first two promising runs; makes handicap debut with something to prove.
10th	2 10th (2) (66/1 -100%) Brave Nation		66 66/1(-100%)																															(2) Brave Nation 66/1, Made a promising start to his career but recent efforts have been rather disappointing, including well held in C&D handicap on reappearance. Testing ground may not have suited on that occasion but he still arrives with something to prove. Beat only one rival over C&D on reappearance; dropped 3lb but needs to turn a corner.
11th	3 11th (3) (10/1 -150%) Revenite		10 10/1(-150%)																															(3) Revenite 10/1, Looked promising when winning 6f novices at Ascot and Kempton last autumn. Very much unexposed now switching to handicap company on reappearance. Interesting to see how much strength there is behind him in betting. Progressed well as 2yo, winning twice; retains good deal of potential for handicap debut.

14:40 Newmarket Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Eminency caught the eye when finishing an unlucky fourth at Kempton last month. Clive Cox's charge was going easily throughout, but ultimately struggled to challenge the leaders having been repeatedly short of room inside the final couple of furlongs. He's a leading candidate granted a better trip, along with handicap debutant Revenite. The form of MUTAANY's October Brighton success has proved to be very strong and, though a beaten favourite on his reappearance, he's fancied to take a step forward.

A useful handicap. EMINENCY was an eyecatcher on his Kempton reappearance and gets the nod but the likes of Expert Agent, Revenite and Quinault are other young sprinters who look capable of better.

The progressive Revenite is feared but the verdict goes to WASHINGTON HEIGHTS who boasts a rock-solid profile.

1	11 1st (11) (10/1 +9%) Havana Blue		10 10/1(+9%)																															(11) Havana Blue 10/1, Fair maiden but he came in last of 8 in handicap at Goodwood (7f, heavy) 14 days ago. Needs to get back on track. Disappointing at Goodwood but entitled to respect in view of previously 2nd of 17 over C&D.
2	2 2nd (2) (1.5/1 +45%) Striking Star		1.5 1.5/1(+45%)																															(2) Striking Star 1.5/1, Debut 7f Sandown winner in September. 7/4, very good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 14 days ago, clear of rest. Can make presence felt again. Second over C&D last time in first handicap and open to further progress for top trainer.
3	7 3rd (7) (7.5/1 +32%) Signcastle City		7.5 7.5/1(+32%)																															(7) Signcastle City 7.5/1, Got off the mark at Salisbury last July prior to an improved third in a listed event there a month later. Matched that form despite shaping as if better for the run after 8 months off when fifth at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 21 days ago so holds good claims here. Returned with encouraging fifth at Haydock and could build on that run here; considered.
4	12 4th (12) (12/1 +0%) Chartwell House		12 12/1(+0%)																															(12) Chartwell House 12/1, Went backwards from his reappearance when sixth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (heavy) 14 days ago. A fair 7f juvenile winner so he's no forlorn hope. Reappeared with good third over C&D and soft ground may not have suited last time.
5th	6 5th (6) (22/1 +12%) Jumbeau		22 22/1(+12%)																															(6) Jumbeau 22/1, Made a winning debut at Brighton in April. 11/10, respectable second of 9 in minor event at Chelmsford City (6f), just failing. Off 6 months ahead of her handicap debut and possibilities. Talented early 2yo last season but below par on final two runs; needs to get back to best.
6th	13 6th (13) (18/1 -50%) Golden Passport		18 18/1(-50%)																															(13) Golden Passport 18/1, 7f winner at Wolverhampton in September. Excellent Newcastle third on his return but below-par fifth on handicap debut at Kempton 52 days ago. More is needed. Gelded since underwhelming handicap debut; has potential off this mark if back on song.
7th	5 7th (5) (6.5/1 +7%) Changing Colours		6.5 6.5/1(+7%)																															(5) Changing Colours 6.5/1, Took 6f minor event at Haydock in June. Not disgraced when seventh of 14 in handicap here (6f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Not dismissed. Merely midfield on reappearance but no surprise to see a big run for his leading trainer.
8th	10 8th (10) (12/1 +64%) Havana By The Sea		12 12/1(+64%)																															(10) Havana By The Sea 12/1, Resumed winning ways at Newcastle in November but he looked rusty after 4 months off when sixth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 43 days ago. Can take a step forward. In the picture. Has shaped as though this step up to 7f could prompt improvement; she's a possible.
9th	9 9th (9) (66/1 -371%) Mile End		66 66/1(-371%)																															(9) Mile End 66/1, Won twice last year for Johnny Murtagh. and probably undone by a hefty rise in hat-trick bid when fourth of 11 in nursery at Naas (5.9f, heavy) 6 months ago. Possibilities on yard debut. Improved form in these blinkers last autumn; capable of a good run on stable debut.
10th	8 10th (8) (25/1 -39%) Berkshire Phantom		25 25/1(-39%)																															(8) Berkshire Phantom 25/1, Already a dual 7f AW winner this year and visored when good fourth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 52 days ago. Can give another good account. Respectable fourth on AW last time but needs something extra in this hotter race.
11th	14 11th (14) (40/1 -150%) Wall Game		40 40/1(-150%)																															(14) Wall Game 40/1, Off 4 months before posting an improved second of 9 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 25 days ago. May do better still now going into handicaps. Considered. Has improved across first three runs and can be optimism he will continue to progress.
12th	4 12th (4) (7.5/1 -114%) Powerdress		7.5 7.5/1(-114%)																															(4) Powerdress 7.5/1, Debut course winner last April. Tailed-off last of 20 to Mawj in 1000 Guineas (66/1) here 13 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Remains likely to improve so she is in the mix in these calmer waters. Tailed off in 1,000 Guineas but of interest judged on the promise of her first two runs.
13th	1 13th (1) (40/1 -43%) Burstow		40 40/1(-43%)																															(1) Burstow 40/1, Won at Deauville in February before creditable eighth of 10 to Shalromy in listed race there 70 days ago on his final run for Andre Fabre. Much respected on his handicap debut. 1-4 in France and market check advised on stable debut, but not obviously well treated.

15:15 Newmarket Handicap (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A case can be made for most of these but marginal preference is for POWERDRESS, who struggled in the 1000 Guineas last time but her previous effort over C&D suggests that a mark of 88 should be workable. Striking Star is an obvious danger after hitting the crossbar here two weeks ago, although a 5lb higher mark will make his life tougher. Changing Colours should not be discounted now upped in trip, while Mile End and Signcastle City are others to consider.

SIGNCASTLE CITY shaped well when fifth on his Haydock return and should strip fitter now so edges the vote off a handy-looking mark in a very open handicap. Striking Star rates a big threat though on the back of his very good C&D second, while Powerdress, a stablemate of the selection, and Berkshire Phantom complete the shortlist.

The step up to 7f could prompt improvement from HAVANA BY THE SEA and she is the selection ahead of Signcastle City.

1	2 1st (2) (1.5/1 +17%) Montassib		1.5 1.5/1(+17%)																															(2) Montassib 1.5/1, Progressive last year. All at sea on heavy ground in Lincoln at Doncaster on reappearance but quickly back on track returned to a sounder surface when eyecatching fourth at Haydock (7f) 3 weeks ago, finishing well after meeting trouble. Leading claims from an unchanged mark. Creditable fourth at Haydock last time; still lightly raced for his age; leading contender.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -25%) Star Of Orion		5 5/1(-25%)																															(5) Star Of Orion 5/1, Course winner who made a solid return to action when length second to the reopposing The Gatekeeper over C&D 15 days ago. Unlikely to be much between them on revised terms. Can start slowly. Good second to The Gatekeeper over C&D; 3lb better off and may well turn the tables.
3	6 3rd (6) (7.5/1 +17%) Persuasion		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(6) Persuasion 7.5/1, No win since 2021 but he did step up a good deal on his reappearance when a creditable 1½ lengths third of 8 to The Gatekeeper (Star of Orion second) over C&D 15 days ago. Needs to build on that now. Close to recent best when third to The Gatekeeper over C&D; unlikely to be far away.
4	7 4th (7) (18/1 -29%) Chola Empire		18 18/1(-29%)																															(7) Chola Empire 18/1, Solid record in AW handicaps to start 2023 but he does take a step up in grade on his return to turf. Others stronger. Had a productive AW winter campaign; career best probably needed on return to turf.
5th	1 5th (1) (18/1 -29%) Witch Hunter		18 18/1(-29%)																															(1) Witch Hunter 18/1, Disappointed behind the reopposing Montassib at Haydock but bounced back from that with a good second at Chester (7.5f, soft) last week, albeit helped by being held up in a strongly-run race. Good second at Chester last week; not discounted although drying ground a possible concern.
6th	4 6th (4) (2.5/1 +25%) The Gatekeeper		2.5 2.5/1(+25%)																															(4) The Gatekeeper 2.5/1, Missed 2022 but this prominent racer has made up for lost time this spring, winning at Newcastle and over C&D. Had reopposing pair Star of Orion and Persuasion behind in second/third when scoring here and should go well again. Beat two of today's rivals over C&D last time; another bold front-running display expected.
7th	3 7th (3) (10/1 -11%) Air To Air		10 10/1(-11%)																															(3) Air To Air 10/1, Useful handicapper who ran with credit when second of 6 at Newcastle on his latest start in January. Has a tongue tie added back on turf after a 138-day break. Can go well fresh. Ran creditably on AW (better on turf) in January; big player if ready to roll after break.

LTO Selection:

15:50 Newmarket Handicap (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

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

The Gatekeeper had Star Of Orion (second) and Persuasion (third) behind when scoring over C&D earlier in the month and he is fancied to confirm the form. However, preference is still for the William Haggas-trained MONTASSIB, who was stopped in his run at a vital point at Haydock on his latest outing when fourth. With a clearer passage this time, he could be the one to beat.

MONTASSIB shaped well enough when fourth at Haydock recently to think he might have more to offer again this year so he's taken to resume winning ways. The Gatekeeper and Star of Orion were 1-2 in a C&D handicap at the Guineas meeting and might be the pair to give the selection most to think about.

The Gatekeeper won at the Guineas meeting but runner-up STAR OF ORION is taken to exact his revenge. Montassib is feared most.

1	3 1st (3) (12/1 +33%) Climate Friendly		12 12/1(+33%)																															(3) Climate Friendly 12/1, Modest form first 2 starts 7 months apart but seemed to excel herself when 6¾ lengths seventh of 9 to in listed Oaks Trial at Lingfield (12f, AW) 7 days ago, though she was never involved and may have been flattered by the steady pace. Remains to be seen whether she can back that up. Seemed to improve when seventh in Lingfield Oaks Trial but that form could be shaky.
2	6 2nd (6) (4.5/1 -13%) Strong Impact		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(6) Strong Impact 4.5/1, Saxon Warrior filly. Dam, 1m winner, half-sister to useful 7f-1m winner Velorum. Stepped up on promising debut when runner-up to a smart prospect in maiden here (10f) 2 weeks ago, still green. More to come. Best work late on when second over 1m2f at the Guineas meeting; better still to come today.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/1 +50%) Divya		9 9/1(+50%)																															(4) Divya 9/1, Galileo filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 12.4f-1¾m winner Surya out of British/Irish Oaks winner Sariska. Debut run was promising and confirmed that form at the second attempt when third in 10f maiden here in October. Should have more to offer upped in trip this year. Bred in the purple; needs to improve on 2yo form but this distance should suit her well.
4	5 4th (5) (40/1 +50%) Marmara Sea		40 40/1(+50%)																															(5) Marmara Sea 40/1, Some promise when seventh of 13 in novice at Newmarket (7f, soft) on debut last autumn and comeback run on heavy going can be forgiven. This looks a strong novice, however. Beaten over 40l on reappearance and would be a surprise winner.
5th	1 5th (1) (0.4/1 -21%) Sumo Sam		0.4 0.4/1(-21%)																															(1) Sumo Sam 0.4/1, Nathaniel filly who overcame greenness to make a successful debut in 7f maiden here in October. Improved a good deal when second in listed race here (10f) on return 2 weeks ago, no match for winner but clear of rest. Will stay and hard to beat back in a novice. Fine second in the Pretty Polly here two weeks ago; emphatically the one to beat.
6th	2 6th (2) (20/1 +0%) Barrier		20 20/1(+0%)																															(2) Barrier 20/1, Australia filly who still looked in need of the experience when fourth of 7 in novice event at Ascot (8f, good) in September, nearest finish. More to offer now significantly up in trip on return but does have plenty to find. Too green to do herself justice as 2yo; plenty to find on form but retains potential.

16:25 Newmarket Stakes (Class 2) 12f Race Class Flow

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

In a small field it may pay to side with Roger Varian's lightly-raced STRONG IMPACT, a daughter of Saxon Warrior who returned to action with a running-on second to Infinite Cosmos here earlier in the month. The added quarter mile may prove ideal and she could prove hard to beat. Sumo Sam drops in class after her Listed second and is noted along with Barrier, who appears one to watch for the future.

SUMO SAM looked a smart prospect when runner-up in the Pretty Polly here on her return 2 weeks ago and can defy a penalty back in a novice. Strong Impact was beaten only by subsequent Musidora-third Infinite Cosmos in a maiden here on her return and can follow the selection home.

The clear pick on form is SUMO SAM, and with further progress on the cards she's emphatically the one to beat.

Ran well after 5 months off when second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (soft, 16/1) 32 days ago. In the picture. Split two subsequent winners when second here in April; in the mix once more.
2	7 2nd (7) (6.5/1 +35%) Isle Of Lismore		6.5 6.5/1(+35%)																															(7) Isle Of Lismore 6.5/1, Dual 5f winner last year, including over July course here, and he comes here on the back of a solid fourth of 11 in handicap at Ascot (5f, good) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly. Shaped as if coming to hand when fourth at Ascot 17 days ago; 2lb lower; high on the list.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/1 +20%) Came From The Dark		6 6/1(+20%)																															(1) Came From The Dark 6/1, Last season was essentially disappointing and he failed to build on reappearance promise when last of 6 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Not the force of old; falling in the weights but needs to rediscover his spark.
4	2 4th (2) (3/1 +60%) Ancient Times		3 3/1(+60%)																															(2) Ancient Times 3/1, Dual 5f winner early last season who continued in good nick after, fourth of 13 at Wolverhampton (6f) final run. Off 7 months but must enter calculations with tongue strap on for 1st time. Progressed well last season and reappears in first-time tongue-strap with yard in top form.
5th	8 5th (8) (14/1 -17%) Stone Circle		14 14/1(-17%)																															(8) Stone Circle 14/1, Returned with 5f win at Yarmouth in April but only fifth of 6 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, soft) 19 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Only fifth of six at Windsor last time; could bounce back but others appeal more.
6th	4 6th (4) (3/1 -20%) Al Barez		3 3/1(-20%)																															(4) Al Barez 3/1, Looked a very useful sprinter in making when completing a hat-trick in 6f Doncaster handicap last April. Had wind surgery/off 12 months before resuming with an encouraging fourth of 10 over C&D (soft) 32 days ago. Interesting. Lightly raced 4yo; shaped well when fourth over C&D on reappearance; more to come.
7th	3 7th (3) (12/1 -200%) Celsius		12 12/1(-200%)																															(3) Celsius 12/1, Kickstarted 2022 with 5f wins at Ascot and on July course here but off the track since posting a good C&D second in September. Still needs considering on his return. 7-24 on turf; narrowly beaten here final 6yo start; has an excellent record when fresh.
8th	6 8th (6) (8/1 +33%) Tolstoy		8 8/1(+33%)																															(6) Tolstoy 8/1, Unreliable sort. Last of 6 in handicap at Windsor (6f, soft) 19 days ago, finding little. Thirteen runs since his last win in 2022. Well treated on his best form but 0-8 this year; too much to prove for comfort.

LTO Selection:

17:00 Newmarket Handicap (Class 3) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Celsius has gone well fresh in the past and makes the shortlist here, but he needs a career best off this mark and that may be asking too much at the age of seven. AL BAREZ didn't have the best of runs on his return when fourth here and, as that was his first start after a wind operation, he could do even better now. Spring Bloom was ahead of him in second that day, but may have to settle for another place on this occasion if the selection gets a clearer run.

AL BAREZ should be all the better for his reappearance C&D fourth after a long absence and can regain the winning thread here. Ascot-fourth Isle of Lismore could emerge as the chief threat to Tom Clover's low-mileage 4-y-o, with Spring Bloom and Ancient Times in the mix too in a competitive sprint.

The most compelling profile belongs to AL BAREZ (nap) who shaped well after a year off when fourth over C&D.
