Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 4/1 (2) SARAH'S VERSE appears to be the strongest contender with a recent win at Bath and a respectable third place finish at the same C&D 21 days ago. 5/1 (5) SILENT FLAME and 5/1 (3) HARB also have potential with past wins on the AW and good performances on turf. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is as follows: 1st - 4/1 (2) SARAH'S VERSE 2nd - 5/1 (5) SILENT FLAME 3rd - 5/1 (3) HARB

SARAH'S VERSE was given an enterprising ride when switched to the far side to challenge over C&D last month, but she eventually weakened into third. Conditions are in her favour again and she can be trusted to make it two wins from three starts at the main expense of Silent Flame and Harb, who ran an encouraging race at Epsom last time out.

FAUSTUS could be the way to go dropped in grade with Buick back on board. Silent Flame and Sarah's Verse are respected also.

The two to concentrate on may be DREAM BY DAY and Sarah's Verse. The former could be the one now that he has a run under his belt.

1.38/1 (2) ROCKIT TOMMY looks like the strongest contender, with a recent impressive debut win and potential for more to come. 8/1 (5) BISCOFF JOE may show improvement with the refitted hood, but it's difficult to predict. 6/1 (6) POURQUOI is a first-time runner and the market may guide expectations. 8/1 (7) THAWG and 7/1 (1) SCOTCH MIST are both once-raced maidens and could improve, but may need more time to develop. 4.5/1 (3) CROSSTITCH has been consistent in recent outings but may struggle to make significant improvement. 100/1 (4) ISLAND KING has shown little in previous races and is unlikely to be a contender. Therefore, the predicted finishes are: 1st: 1.38/1 (2) ROCKIT TOMMY 2nd: 8/1 (5) BISCOFF JOE 3rd: 6/1 (6) POURQUOI

A comfortable winner on his debut at Lingfield last month, ROCKIT TOMMY is taken to follow up under a 7lb penalty on his turf bow. Crosstitch ran arguably a career best when second at Beverley 18 days ago and is entitled to be thereabouts, along with Scotch Mist, who shaped with promise at Yarmouth, while Thawg is another open to improvement.

ROCKIT TOMMY produced a promising debut effort when getting off the mark in a 7-runner Lingfield novice (10f) 4 weeks ago and, with improvement anticipated, he gets the nod to make it 2-2. Crosstitch may emerge as the chief threat ahead of Scotch Mist.

After he made a winning debut on the Lingfield AW, any improvement from ROCKIT TOMMY could make him hard to beat.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Based on the summary, 1.5/1 (5) ARDAD'S GREAT and 2.25/1 (4) SNUGGLE are the most likely to finish in the top three, with Ulramarine and 4/1 (2) HYDRATION having an outside chance. 33/1 (6) SINFUL and 28/1 (3) MAGIC MEMORIES are less likely to perform well. However, it should be noted that horse racing is unpredictable and there is always the possibility of unexpected outcomes.

A tentative vote goes to ARDAD'S GREAT, who remains a maiden after seven starts for Jessica Harrington last year but did show an ability to handle soft ground. A rating of 86 and getting weight from the majority of her rivals could make her tough to beat and she is narrowly preferred to fellow Irish-recruit Ultramarine and Snuggle, who has not been outside the first three in his last four starts.

ARDAD'S GREAT didn't quite go on from her Tipperary second as expected but sets a useful standard on her first outing for Jamie Osborne. Snuggle is a likeable type and took a step forward when second at Salisbury last time, so looks best placed to take advantage if the selection underperforms. Hydration is another likely improver and can't be discounted.

While Hydration's 7f AW win was delivered in promising style, giving the weight to Snuggle and ARDAD'S GREAT may be tricky.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Based on the summary, 5/1 (7) MISS BELLA BRAND seems to be in good form and has won a handicap race recently. Therefore, she is likely to do well in this race. 1.75/1 (6) AZURE ANGEL also has promising performances and could make a bold bid on her handicap debut. As for the third horse, it is difficult to predict but 3/1 (1) RAZEYNA could be a potential each-way chance. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is: 1) 5/1 (7) MISS BELLA BRAND, 2) 1.75/1 (6) AZURE ANGEL, 3) 3/1 (1) RAZEYNA.

The unexposed Azure Angel has done little wrong so far and is taken seriously as she reverts to turf for her handicap debut. The form of Miss Bella Brand's latest victory is working out well and she is also high on the shortlist. However, RAZEYNA looked progressive last year and she sets a good standard on her return for an in-form yard.

There should be more to come from AZURE ANGEL, who was a winner of 2 of her 3 starts last season and makes her handicap debut off what could turn out to be a very fair mark. If conditions remain on the slow side it will be a case of unknown territory for this daughter of Harry Angel but she makes plenty of appeal otherwise given her potential. Crazy Luck has dipped to an attractive mark and is second choice ahead of Razeyna.

Azure Angel may bring most promise but Miss Bella Brand and RAZEYNA (nap) are big players with less to prove on the surface.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well. However, 7.5/1 (9) LAWN RANGER, 8.5/1 (8) JUNKANOO, and 3.5/1 (5) SNAPCRACKLEPOP seem to be the strongest contenders. 1st place: 7.5/1 (9) LAWN RANGER 2nd place: 3.5/1 (5) SNAPCRACKLEPOP 3rd place: 8.5/1 (8) JUNKANOO

The fitting of cheekpieces is an intriguing ploy with SNAPCRACKLEPOP and the headgear might provide the missing ingredient in his bid to get back to winning ways. Having won over 1m here last August, the son of Acclamation has subsequently gone close twice over this trip and there is a lot to like about his chances. Junkanoo and Bruno's Gold are also fancied to be on the premises at the business end.

The one with the most compelling credentials is SNAPCRACKLEPOP, who went close twice on the AW during the winter and lack of a recent run is of no great concern given that he made a winning reappearance in 2022. He was a winner here, too, last season (over a mile) and is unexposed at this trip. Lawn Ranger is second choice ahead of Junkanoo.

In an open race, SNAPCRACKLEPOP may follow the example of several stablemates recently by winning first time out, as he did last term.

1st: 5/1 (3) MRS MEADER 2nd: 4.5/1 (6) SYDNEY MEWS 3rd: 1.75/1 (5) ALBA LONGA

Having finished second behind the useful Sunset Point here last month, SYDNEY MEWS could be hard to beat given that she faces nothing of that calibre tonight. The step up in trip should suit on pedigree and a bold showing can be expected from the Andrew Balding-trained filly. Kingston Joy is one to monitor in the betting now she switches to turf, but a more potent threat could be posed by Alba Longa if she appreciates this more demanding test of stamina.

MRS MEADER caught the eye when a strong-travelling fourth over C&D last time and this three-time winner in 2022 can gain a first success of the season eased 1 lb here. Peaceful Night should find this step up in trip very much in her favour so rates a big threat though, while Ralph Beckett's handicap-debutante Alba Longa is another who can have a say in an intriguing handicap.

All of them need a close look but the vote goes to CREMA INGLESA ahead of Mrs Meader and Peaceful Night.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, the horse most likely to do well and win the race is 0.62/1 (1) SPARKS FLY, who has had three wins this year including a recent career best performance. 10/1 (6) EXERTIVE may also have a good chance as they are being ridden by William Buick and their yard is in good form. For third place, 14/1 (4) NATIVE BEACH or Lady of Arabia could be contenders based on their recent performances.

SPARKS FLY landed the hat-trick in empathic style at Thirsk last week, having improved plenty for the switch to turf. Her last two victories have come under penalties and connections waste no time in turning the daughter of Muhaarar out once again. Lady Of Arabia won at the third time of asking at Kempton in December and is open to further improvement now making her handicap debut, while others to note include Native Beach and Fitz Perfectly.

It's hard to look beyond SPARKS FLY, who continues to go from strength to strength, completing the hat-trick in good style at Thirsk last week, and she remains a sizeable step ahead of the handicapper. Exertive showed ability in a handful of appearances as a 2-y-o and, with improvement anticipated now upped in trip for this handicap debut, she could be the one for the forecast. Native Beach and Lady of Arabia can do battle for minor honours.

A fourth win in three weeks may well be on its way for SPARKS FLY. The most likely threats are Lady Of Arabia and Exertive.
