(5) Mandurah 5/1, Foaled February 2. Kingman filly. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart 8.5f-1¼m winner Mandour out of very smart 1m-1½m winner Mandesha. Highly respected on debut. Filly by Kingman and the first foal of an unraced daughter of a French Group 1 winner.

10/1(-43%)
(6) Miss Fascinator 10/1, Foaled March 13. €40,000 foal, 72,000 gns 2-y-o, Mehmas filly. Half-sister to useful 6f-1¼m winner Royal Robbins. One for shortlist on debut given connections. 72,000gns (breeze-up) 2yo; by Mehmas out of a well-related dam; market instructive.

3rd (2) (9/2 +0%) Beronia
4.5
9/2(+0%)
(2) Beronia 9/2, €210,000 yearling, Hello Youmzain filly. Dam, useful French 6.5f-1m winner, half-sister to smart 1¾m-16.6f winner (stayed 2½m) Lismore. Has shown plenty in 6f Ripon and Thirsk events. More to come, but crying out for further even now and probably vulnerable to a newcomer here. Placed in 6f contests on slow ground at Ripon and Thirsk; sets the form standard.

40/1(-60%)
(3) Cressida Wildes 40/1, Foaled February 17. 28,000 gns foal, Showcasing filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Onigiri. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to useful 6f-7f winner Compton Park. 28,000gns foal; suitably bred; yard is 1-12 with 2yos this season.

7/1(-27%)
(11) Valentia Island 7/1, Foaled April 6. €36,000 yearling, £270,000 2-y-o, Starspangledbanner filly. Half-sister to smart 1¼m winner Deira Mile. Dam, 9f winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m Walkinthesand. Another fascinating contender for Godolphin. £270,000 (breeze-up) 2yo; looks the stable second string but is still interesting.
6th

6th (7) (28/1 -409%) Nad Alshiba Rain
28
28/1(-409%)
(7) Nad Alshiba Rain 28/1, Too Darn Hot filly. Dam, third at 6f, half-sister to high-class winner up to 1¼m Akeed Mofeed. Fifth of 11 in maiden at Nottingham (6.1f, good, 12/1) on debut 9 days ago, not knocked about. Should progress. Clear promise, amid greenness, at Nottingham (close fifth) last week; enters calculations.
7th

7th (10) (66/1 -3671%) Scattering Light
66
66/1(-3671%)
(10) Scattering Light 66/1, Foaled April 11. Blue Point filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Sawaaj. Of obvious interest on debut and is preferred by William Buick. Blue Point filly; trainer is 10-26 (38%) with 2yos this season; respected newcomer.
8th

8th (1) (66/1 -313%) Beautiful Things
66
66/1(-313%)
(1) Beautiful Things 66/1, Foaled March 11. 27,000 gns yearling, 77,000 gns 2-y-o, Profitable filly. Half-sister to 1m-1¼m winner Pocketeer and 2-y-o 6f winner Lunar Streets. 77,000gns (breeze-up) 2yo; Profitable half-sister to two winners; check the betting.
9th

9th (9) (100/1 -52%) Prada On Parole
100
100/1(-52%)
(9) Prada On Parole 100/1, 15,000 gns yearling, Without Parole filly. Dam ran once, out of unraced half-sister to high-class winner up to 1½m (stayed 1¾m) Sea Moon. 66/1, showed a bit in 6f Thirsk fillies' novice on debut 12 days ago. Surely not a sprinter judged on breeding. Needs to improve a good deal on her Thirsk effort (behind Beronia).
10th
8
10th (8) (251/1 -151%) Pathetic Fallacy
251
251/1(-151%)
(8) Pathetic Fallacy 251/1, Green when well held in 5f maidens. Always behind in a couple of 5f races.
11th

11th (4) (100/1 -300%) Hourglass Of Light
100
100/1(-300%)
(4) Hourglass Of Light 100/1, Twice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, eighth of 11 in maiden at Kempton (6f, 20/1) 23 days ago, worst of draw. Longer trips/handicaps will suit. Bare form suggests she'll be more interesting in nurseries shortly.
17:15 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
After making the frame at Ripon and Thirsk, Beronia sets the standard, but it isn't insurmountable and Nad Alshiba Rain might be best of those with previous experience after meeting with trouble at Nottingham. There are some interesting newcomers, though, not least the Godolphin pair of SCATTERING LIGHT and Valentia Island, with William Buick's presence on the former suggesting she is the stable number one. Kingman filly Mandurah is from a fine French family, with Miss Fascinator and Beautiful Things a couple more to consider.
The betting will be revealing but there is a good chance this will go to a newcomer, SCATTERING LIGHT, the choice of Buick over stablemate Valentia Island for Godolphin, getting the vote. Miss Fascinator and Mandurah also make plenty of appeal on paper.
Godolphin newcomers SCATTERING LIGHT and Valentia Island are particularly interesting. The betting should offer further guidance.
(3) Orchard Keeper 4/1, Runner-up effort at Wolverhampton in February worked out well. Not in quite the same form despite achieving the same position at Chelmsford later that month , no match for winner. Off since but she's up in trip for handicap/turf debut and she should have more to offer Open to progress now handicapping and upped in distance; interesting.
2
2
2nd (2) (10/1 -100%) Aim For The Moon
10
10/1(-100%)
(2) Aim For The Moon 10/1, Very lightly raced for a 7-y-o and off the mark in 9-runner handicap at Yarmouth trying this trip for the first time in April. Wasn't seen to best effect at Yarmouth but tendency to miss the start is an ongoing worry. 7yo who has low mileage; won at Yarmouth in April; unplaced favourite there since.
3
4
3rd (4) (12/1 -700%) Post Rider
12
12/1(-700%)
(4) Post Rider 12/1, Big improver switched to turf, following up her Brighton win in determined fashion at Nottingham a fortnight ago (8.3f). Step up in trip can only help so she's the one to beat. 2-2 since switched to turf, winning 1m events; bred to stay this longer trip; respected.
4
1
4th (1) (66/1 -2833%) Pink Lily
66
66/1(-2833%)
(1) Pink Lily 66/1, Arrives at the very top of her game, supplementing her Bath win in 11-runner handicap at Goodwood 3 weeks ago (9.1f). Up 5 lb against interesting 3-y-os but she's thriving. Scored at Bath and Goodwood the last twice; better than ever and has to be feared.
5th
5
5th (5) (100/1 -733%) Sparkling Belle
100
100/1(-733%)
(5) Sparkling Belle 100/1, Still not the finished article but took a jump forward when mid-field in an AW novice 3 weeks ago. Makes handicap/turf debut. Pedigree suggests she's not guaranteed to improve for this switch to turf.
17:50 Newmarket Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Alec Voikhansky knows Pink Lily so well and they arrive after victories at Bath and Goodwood, but their hat-trick plans could be scuppered by ORCHARD KEEPER. Roger Varian's filly has found only one too strong on each of her last two appearances and now goes handicapping after a break and over a trip that should suit. Post Rider, another on a three-timer, has more to offer, but the assessor appears to have caught up with Aim For The Moon.
POST RIDER has left her AW form well behind on turf of late, showing the right attitude when making a winning handicap debut at Nottingham a fortnight ago. She can only improve for this trip so the hat-trick looks on the cards, for all Pink Lily is also competing for the match ball. Orchard Keeper is also of some interest.
There should be further progress to come from POST RIDER (nap). Her main threats are probably Pink Lily and Orchard Keeper.
(8) Prevail 8/1, Ulysses filly. Dam, winner up to 10.2f (2-y-o 7f-1m winner), half-sister to very smart 6f winner Golden Horde. Of obvious interest on debut with Buick aboard. Filly by Ulysses out of a Listed winner; connections also run Inherit; market helpful.
1
2
1st (2) (6/4 +14%) Rainbows Edge
1.5
6/4(+14%)
(2) Rainbows Edge 6/4, Night of Thunder filly. Bred in the purple and looked potentially useful as she overcame inexperience to make a winning start in a 8-runner maiden at Newcastle (8f) on debut. Off 97 days since but is open to significant improvement. Royal runner who made a winning debut in Newcastle maiden three months ago; respected.
2
5
2nd (5) (10/3 -67%) Inherit
3.333333
10/3(-67%)
(5) Inherit 10/3, Kingman filly. Dam winner up to 1¼m (won Breeders' Cup Filly and Mare Turf, and 2-y-o 7f winner) who stayed 1½m. Much improved from debut when close third of 13 in maiden (3/1) at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Has to be in the mix again. Very close third at Yarmouth on reappearance; should improve further; leading claims.
3
7
3rd (7) (33/1 -340%) Morrophore
33
33/1(-340%)
(7) Morrophore 33/1, Kingman filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 11f Utmost and useful 9f-1½m winner So High. Yard's newcomers have to be respected. Kingman half-sister to four winners; stablemate of Rainbows Edge; check the betting.
4
6
4th (6) (14/1 +30%) Inversion
14
14/1(+30%)
(6) Inversion 14/1, Frankel filly out of half-sister to high-class St Leger winner Logician. Below expectations when seventh of 8 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, heavy) on debut, Hood applied after 8 months off and no surprise if there's a bigger effort in her now. Should improve on her 2yo effort; related to numerous winners for her connections.
5th
4
5th (4) (20/1 +0%) Bernalda
20
20/1(+0%)
(4) Bernalda 20/1, Frankel filly out of Group 3-winning dam. Promise when sixth of 13 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft) on debut 16 days ago, sticking to task under hands and heels. Open to improvement. About 5l behind Inherit at Yarmouth but looks open to improvement.
6th
9
6th (9) (40/1 -400%) Supreme Beauty
40
40/1(-400%)
(9) Supreme Beauty 40/1, Foaled February 24. 375,000 gns yearling, No Nay Never filly. Dam, 1m-1¼m winner, sister to Oaks winner up to 1½m Was. Encouragement when third of 7 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) on debut. Off 10 months and has left James Horton. Should improve. Promising third at Beverley for James Horton; sold for 130,000gns since; possibilities.
7th
1
7th (1) (200/1 -100%) Poppydora
200
200/1(-100%)
(1) Poppydora 200/1, Intello filly. Down the field in Bath novice and Kempton maiden, so can't be fancied. Holds poor claims on her middle-distance efforts.
8th
3
8th (3) (100/1 -100%) Absolutely Buzzing
100
100/1(-100%)
(3) Absolutely Buzzing 100/1, Gleneagles filly. Little promise in 2 outings for Joseph Patrick O'Brien last year. Changed hands for 3,000 gns in April. Hard to fancy. Needs to improve on her Irish efforts; joined new connections for 3,000gns.
18:25 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
RAINBOWS EDGE is related to several Group/Graded winners and could be up to that class herself, judging by her impressive defeat of an 82-rated filly on her Newcastle introduction. She has been given time to strengthen further and can successfully take the next step up the ladder, although Inherit won't make it easy for her after her close-up Yarmouth third. Inversion is bred to be better than she showed at Salisbury, while Beverley third Supreme Beauty changed hands for 130,000gns recently. Prevail and Morrophore, although apparent stable second strings, warrant attention on debut.
RAINBOWS EDGE looked a very smart prospect when scoring under a hands-and-heels ride at Newcastle in March and the King's filly can defy a penalty against some similarly exciting rivals. Inherit showed plenty to like in a hot race at Yarmouth, whilst newcomers Prevail and Morrophore also merit plenty of respect on paper.
An interesting novice event that features several well-bred fillies. INHERIT gets the narrow vote ahead of Rainbows Edge.
(3) Strategia 11/2, Maiden winner in Italy last season but form somewhat tailed off subsequently and just respectable efforts in 2 starts since rejoining this yard. Others preferred. Has shown no progress since handicapping but is well treated on peak RPRs.
2
2
(2) (28/1 -12%) Abbey Gardens
28
28/1(-12%)
(2) Abbey Gardens 28/1, Game winner of his second start Simon & Ed Crisford but left after following outing and has offered very little in 2 starts for current yard. Couple of heavy defeats over 1m for new stable; 2yo win came over 1m.
1
1
1st (1) (3/1 -60%) Lunario
3
3/1(-60%)
(1) Lunario 3/1, Won at Yarmouth in April and has reached the podium all 3 outings since, again running with credit when third of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (9f, good) 21 days ago. Should give another good account. Has form figures of 1223 since wearing blinkers; solid chance in the retained blinds.
2
7
2nd (7) (11/2 +21%) Come On You Spurs
5.5
11/2(+21%)
(7) Come On You Spurs 11/2, Improved switched to a nursery when third of 9 in at Chelmsford City (7f, 7/1) in December on final outing for Henry Spiller. Off 6 months but greater test of stamina here should suit and he's open to improvement. Has a turf pedigree; interesting switched to this sphere on debut for new yard.
3
5
3rd (5) (100/1 -2400%) Royal Tapestry
100
100/1(-2400%)
(5) Royal Tapestry 100/1, Scored at Lingfield in November and ran up to his best when fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 12/1) 8 days ago. Remains on fair mark but overall profile on turf is less convincing. Back in better form with visor applied at Wolverhampton (AW) last week.
4
6
4th (6) (100/1 -1900%) Magnificent Match
100
100/1(-1900%)
(6) Magnificent Match 100/1, Won at Yarmouth in April and confirmed that improvement when runner-up there on next start. Not disgraced when seventh of 13 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 11/1) 18 days ago but others perhaps appeal as likelier winners. Engaged 8.30 Leicester Thursday. Something to prove back up in grade, after third when favourite at Leicester last night.
5th
4
5th (4) (80/1 -2302%) Hitched
80
80/1(-2302%)
(4) Hitched 80/1, Scored 3 times by narrow margins in 2023 and shaped as if better for run when fourth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 38 days ago. Not wihout hope of doing better again this season, so rates as a player with regular hood back on. Has form figures of 12141 at about 1m, all last term; respected back at this distance.
19:00 Newmarket Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
LUNARIO has been maintaining his form in recent months, as evidenced by placed efforts at Goodwood, Bath and Nottingham. Alice Haynes' gelding looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to regain the winning thread and he edges the vote over Hitched. The son of Cotai Glory posted a respectable fourth on his reappearance at Brighton in May and any improvement is likely to see him fighting in the finish. Royal Tapestry can chase the duo home.
Stale switcher COME ON YOU SPURS remains lightly raced and is fancied to make a winning return from a 6-month absence with the step up in trip promising to suit the daughter of Zoffany. The consistent Lunario should pose a serious threat once again, with Hitched also highly respected with a recent run now under his belt.
The most solid contenders are HITCHED and Lunario.
(6) Neverstopdreaming 22/1, Won a Pontefract maiden (6f) this time last year and ended last season with a career-best display when winning 10-runner Carlisle nursery (5.8f, soft) in September, flashing tail close home. Changed hands for 45,000 gns in May and she could well improve further for new stable. Dual 6f winner for James Horton; sold for 45,000gns last month; check the betting.
1
3
1st (3) (Evens +43%) Lou Lou's Gift
0
Evens(+43%)
(3) Lou Lou's Gift Evens, Won 6f Newcastle novice in November and made a pleasing return/handicap debut when third at Kempton (7f), racing freely and unable to catch the winner once she'd quickened on. In good hands and remains with potential returned to turf. Ran well in Kempton handicap on seasonal debut; nicely bred and should improve further.
2
4
2nd (4) (100/1 -2757%) Aquacell
100
100/1(-2757%)
(4) Aquacell 100/1, Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut at Chelmsford (7f) in April. Hasn't looked entirely straightforward in couple of subsequent outings, second of 5 on handicap debut at Yarmouth (7f) 32 days ago. Still, it remains early days with her. No match for the winner at Yarmouth last time but may still have progress in her.
3
5
3rd (5) (100/1 -614%) Secret World
100
100/1(-614%)
(5) Secret World 100/1, Got off the mark second time up at Wolverhampton last October (strong form) and made a solid return to action when third at Carlisle last month. However, hasn't replicated that either start since, tenth of 13 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, soft) 13 days ago. Returns to quicker ground now. Form has dipped sharply in two starts since handicapping; opposed.
4
1
4th (1) (14/1 -250%) Bulldog Drummond
14
14/1(-250%)
(1) Bulldog Drummond 14/1, Dual winner on AW for George Boughey and positive start for new yard after 5 months off/following wind op when third in 12-runner handicap here (6f) 6 days ago. Return to 7f rates a plus on that evidence and he's one to bear in mind. Ran well in higher grade here last Saturday on debut for new yard; clear possibilities.
5th
2
5th (2) (50/1 -614%) Robbo
50
50/1(-614%)
(2) Robbo 50/1, Displayed fairly useful form at 2 yrs and put his experience to good use when opening his account on return at Chelmsford (7f) in April. Well below that level when last of 13 on handicap debut at Goodwood (7f) 5 weeks ago but this rates less demanding. Comfortable success in AW maiden on reappearance; well held in Class 2 race since.
19:35 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Market support for the stable/seasonal debutant Neverstopdreaming must be noted, particularly with the No Nay Never filly capping off last year's campaign with a victory at Carlisle. However, last month's Kempton third LOU LOU'S GIFT has the benefit of a run and that match-fitness could prove pivotal come the finish. Aquacell also arrives in good heart and Jane Chapple-Hyam's filly cannot be easily dismissed.
Successful on her final outing as a juvenile, LOU LOU'S GIFT returned to action with a solid third on handicap debut at Kempton 4 weeks ago and, very much the type to improve again for her leading yard, she's very much of interest back on turf. Bulldog Drummond, returned to 7f, is a threat following his encouraging stable debut effort here, with Aquacell another to consider.
Back down in grade, BULLDOG DRUMMOND looks an interesting alternative to the unexposed fillies Lou Lou's Gift and Aquacell.
(5) Rosy Affair 10/3, Havana Grey filly who made it 2 wins from 4 starts despite still looking a work in progress when taking 5-runner Chepstow handicap (5f) 3 weeks ago. Open to further improvement and she's high on the shortlist. Far from straightforward at Chepstow last time but managed to win; improving filly.
2
1
2nd (1) (5/2 -25%) Ananda
2.5
5/2(-25%)
(1) Ananda 5/2, Low-mileage daughter of Frankel who saw off a useful sort on second of her 2 starts at 2yrs. Missed whole of last year but solid efforts upon returning this campaign, chasing home another improving sort on handicap debut at Haydock (6f) 3 weeks ago. Type to progress further. Two solid efforts since returning from lengthy absence; still open to further progress.
3
2
3rd (2) (9/1 -379%) Gutsy Girl
9
9/1(-379%)
(2) Gutsy Girl 9/1, Promising individual who was much improved from her debut run when winning 9-runner Carlisle maiden (5.8f) last August. Solid return conceding weight all round when third at Windsor (6f) 25 days ago and highly likely there's more to come now handicapping. Ran well on seasonal debut (held a Group 1 entry at the time); should have more to offer.
4
4
4th (4) (18/1 +36%) Exponista
18
18/1(+36%)
(4) Exponista 18/1, Landed a 6f Nottingham maiden prior to a respectable sixth in Group 3 on final start as a 2-y-o. Hasn't really kicked on in trio of starts so far this campaign but her mark is steadily easing at least. Holds weak claims on 2024 form and looks likely to struggle.
5th
3
5th (3) (80/1 -967%) Thursday's Child
80
80/1(-967%)
(3) Thursday's Child 80/1, Harry Angel filly who won first 2 starts in maiden/novice company and ran a solid race when fourth in a competitive York handicap (7f) in May. Latest run at that venue was well below par but she's certainly not one to be writing off. Ran well in her hat-trick attempt but form dipped sharply last time.
20:10 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Rosy Affair scored on her second attempt in handicap company at Chepstow when always in control of proceedings. However, a 6lb rise requires another step forward against potentially stronger opposition. Ananda has the talent to be competitive but didn't appear to be straightforward when runner-up at Haydock. With that in mind, GUTSY GIRL may be the answer after running with a huge amount of credit when third under a penalty at Windsor. The daughter of Blue Point may well have won with a clear run and an opening mark of 85 could be generous from the handicapper.
ROSY AFFAIR made it 2 wins from 4 career starts to date despite still looking very much a work-in-progress at Chepstow 3 weeks ago and she shades the vote with the likelihood of more to come. Ananda and Gutsy Girl are similarly progressive fillies and also enter calculations.
An opening mark of 85 should be manageable for GUTSY GIRL. Ananda and Rosy Affair look the biggest threats.
(5) Signalman 6/4, Fair form. Ran his best race when fourth on his 1¼m Sandown handicap debut (good) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces added. Has the potential for better again for his leading stable. Showed improvement at Sandown (handicap debut) two weeks ago; possibilities off same mark.
2
3
2nd (3) (11/1 -485%) Xiomara
11
11/1(-485%)
(3) Xiomara 11/1, Promising 1½ lengths second on 1¼m Nottingham handicap debut in May and shaped better than the result (caught too far back) when fifth of 10 at Salisbury since. Remains capable of better. Couple of promising efforts since switched to handicap level; commands respect.
3
1
3rd (1) (100/1 -1567%) Obsidian Knight
100
100/1(-1567%)
(1) Obsidian Knight 100/1, Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner handicap at Chelmsford (1¼m) in Paril but well beaten back on turf at Ascot since. AW success on reappearance but well held at Ascot since; now 0-8 on turf.
4
2
4th (2) (100/1 -1233%) Savanna King
100
100/1(-1233%)
(2) Savanna King 100/1, Fair maiden. First run for new yard when never-nearer fifth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (1m) on reappearance 7 weeks ago, never nearer. Will be suited by the return to 1¼m. Ran encouragingly at Leicester on stable/seasonal debut; may improve; interesting.
5th
4
5th (4) (80/1 -789%) Yippee
80
80/1(-789%)
(4) Yippee 80/1, Winner at Pontefract (1¼m, good to soft) in May, but below that form on his 2 outings since. Bounce back needed. Form has dipped sharply in two runs since winning a maiden handicap at Pontefract.
20:45 Newmarket Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SIGNALMAN wasn't disgraced in finishing fourth on his handicap debut at Sandown when attempting to make all the running and, in a contest that doesn't appear to have much depth on paper, the son of New Approach may be able to take advantage, especially in first-time cheekpieces. Xiomara has shaped well on both efforts in handicap company and is expected to be in the mix, while Savanna King completes the shortlist.
XIOMARA was a lot better than the result at Salisbury last time. Her Nottingham second prior to that suggests she has a race in her from this sort of mark and she's preferred to fellow 3-y-o Signalman.
A few runners have shown clear promise since switched to handicap level. Slight preference is for XIOMARA, ahead of Signalman.

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.
