Fool's Gold boasts an appealing pedigree and certainly warrants a second look on his racecourse bow. A half-brother to the Prix de l'Abbaye winner The Platinum Queen, he should not be underestimated. However, QIRAT is out of a Group 1 winner and a half-brother to the Classic-placed Bluestocking. The son of Showcasing could be worth siding with on his debut. Habrdi is another to consider following a fair run for fifth over C&D last month.

HABRDI was only fifth when all the rage in the betting on debut over C&D 2 weeks ago, but he still showed promise and can put that experience to good use. There are some interesting newcomers on show, notably Champagne Stakes entry Fool's Gold, who is a half-brother to one of last season's leading 2-y-os The Platinum Queen, and Qirat, who is a half-brother to connections' Irish Oaks runner-up Bluestocking.

Although HABRDI was unable to justify his short price here on debut he should be capable of better with that run under his belt.

Runner-up on her last two starts, SHE IS A KEEPER could be the one to beat in a weak contest. The most recent of which came over 6f at this track last month and the daughter of Profitable shaped as though she would appreciate a stiffer stamina test. Hadrian's Wall looks to be her most serious danger in first-time cheekpieces, while Us Navy Jack seems best of the rest.

An uncompetitive seller, in which two-time runner-up SHE IS A KEEPER should take plenty of beating for the Richard Hannon stable. Hadrian's Wall has taken backwards steps since his debut second but at least has shown some ability, whilst Lambert wasn't given a hard time on his racecourse bow and could do better here.

It's a tad surprising to see SHE IS A KEEPER relegated to selling company after a decent nursery run here last time.

MACDUFF's dam is a lightly-raced half-sister to the phenomenal Kingman, as well as the Group 3 winner Remote. The son of Sea The Stars could be worth siding with based on that and is fancied to get the better of Monsieur Fudge, who cost 360,000 euro and is out of a Canadian Grade 1 winner. Broadway Act and Break The Bank are just two others with claims.

A field of juvenile newcomers, and the market will add valuable clues, but Godolphin's BROADWAY ACT, a son of Too Darn Hot who cost 250,000gns, ticks a whole lot of boxes. Monsieur Fudge and Break The Bank were expensive buys as well and are highly respected.

Charlie Appleby has won the past two renewals with colts who went on to register triple-digit RPRs and he introduces BROADWAY ACT.

A tentative vote goes to JAYYASH, who cost 420,000 euro earlier in the year and is by the sire of the moment in Siyouni. A full-brother to the German 1000 Guineas winner Txope, he is bred to be smart and is narrowly preferred to Tribal Moon for last year's winning trainer and Washeek, who hails from a stable that have an excellent record with first-time-out juveniles. Native King and Pick Your Battles must be noted for market support as well.

Another field of juvenile newcomers, and again the market will provide exta clues, but the eye is drawn to the Gosdens' JAYYASH, a really well-bred son of Siyouni who cost a pretty packet when sold earlier this year. Godolphin's Tribal Moon ticks a lot of boxes as well, and Native King, a son of Kingman, is respected also.

Tribal Moon and Jayyash are obvious dangers but WASHEEK is the only one of these holding a Group-race entry.

A comfortable winner of his last two starts, it is difficult to look past FINEST LEADER as he goes in search of a hat-trick. A 5lb rise for his most recent success at Newbury could prove lenient and, in the capable hands of William Buick, he should have too much for the Newcastle second Kingori. The capable Whitefeathersfall returns from a year off but cannot be discounted.

The combination of a step up in trip and fitting of cheekpieces have worked wonders for FINEST LEADER and he looks up to completing the hat-trick. Fellow 3-y-o Palamon likely has a bigger performance in the locker now stepping up in trip. especially if he can cut out the tardy starts, with the lightly-raced Kingori also respected on his turf debut.

A chance is taken on PALAMON. Slow starts are turning into a habit but there have been other excuses for his two defeats in handicaps.

KIMNKATE found only another progressive rival too strong at Epsom last week and the slight ease in grade could enable Richard Hughes' filly to regain the winning thread. Astral Spirit starts life in handicap company off what looks a fair mark and the three-year-old may emerge as the biggest threat to the selection. Canadiansmokeshow appeared to improve in a first-time hood when landing a maiden contest at Brighton in June and shouldn't be underestimated now back in this sphere.

This can go the way of KIMNKATE, who hasn't looked back since being blinkered and Richard Hughes' 3-y-o can register a fourth success in her last 6 outings. Bonkersinabundance found improvement for the step up in trip when scoring at Brighton last month and she could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Honeymooner and Canadiansmokeshow another couple fancied to go well.

It took a while to fulfil her flashes of good form at two but Brighton winner CANADIANSMOKESHOW (nap) could well progress further.

EQUIANO SPRINGS appeared to relish the drop in trip when winning a shade cosily over C&D last month and the son of Equiano could make light work of a 3lb rise. Lady Dreamer looks to have a race of this nature within her compass, although she will likely need to break better in order to capitalise in this contest. Tom Ward's filly is another to consider, along with Champagne Sarah, who should appreciate the return to 6f.

EQUIANO SPRINGS has his 3 lb rise for last month's C&D success offset by Adam Farragher's claim and might be able to follow up. Lady Dreamer can extend her run of good efforts since visored to 3 and provide the chief threat ahead of Clive Cox's Ice Cool Harry.

A chance is taken on DISTINGUISHED LADY, who has claims on her best form if she's revitalised by a change of stable.

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.
