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

Based on the summary, 1.1/1 (4) MR RUMBALICIOUS seems to be the strongest contender as he has won his last two races and is in good form. 2.75/1 (7) ALL ABOUT ALICE and 7/1 (8) STEEL HELMET could also be in the running for 2nd and 3rd place, respectively.

Things have clicked into gear for MR RUMBALICIOUS, who arrives in search of a hat-trick. He battled on gamely to record the latest of those wins, which came here last month, and a subsequent 2lb rise in the handicap shouldn't prevent him from mounting another serious challenge. Alan King's charge edges the vote over All About Alice, who was only a neck behind him at Lingfield. Steel Helmet is fancied to chase them home.

JENNY REN has had all 5 of her starts in 2023 at this course and has been holding her form well, successful in March before faring best of those held up when fourth on her latest outing. She is taken to see off the challenge of Mr Rumbalicious, who isn't taken lightly in his hat-trick bid, while All About Alice can also give another good account.

This can go to Alan King's hat-trick seeker MR RUMBALICIOUS, who won here last time and is only 2lb higher on this drop back in trip.

1st - 2/1 (3) ESTATE 2nd - 28/1 (10) CLOSE OF PLAY 3rd - 3.5/1 (9) TATTERSTALL

BRIGHT was too keen to do himself justice having been sent off favourite on his racecourse debut last month, but better was clearly expected and he could take a marked step forward with that run under his belt. Estate continues to run well in defeat and merits respect from a low draw, along with Popular Dream, who must be of interest back on an artificial surface. Harry Angel gelding Ice Cool Harry makes appeal on paper and is worth a market check ahead of his first start.

ESTATE ran to a fairly useful level when runner-up twice at 2 yrs and, having finished third on his reappearance 10 days ago, he could be ready to open his account this time around. Tatterstall also filled the runner-up spot on two occasions last year and is feared most having been gelded ahead of his return, with Bright completing the shortlist.

This looks a bit trappy but Andrew Balding's ESTATE gets the vote ahead of Tatterstall and Bright.

It is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well based on this summary. However, 0.73/1 (7) MOUNTAIN LAKE, being an interesting newcomer with good connections, may be a horse to watch. Therefore, the predicted order of finish for the race is: 1) 0.73/1 (7) MOUNTAIN LAKE 2) 5/1 (1) LOVE IS A ROSE 3) 6.5/1 (3) SOPHIA'S STARLIGHT

Fresh from his success with Mawj in the 1000 Guineas, Saeed bin Suroor will be hopeful that MOUNTAIN LAKE can strike at the first time of asking. The daughter of Postponed has a stamina laden pedigree, but there is enough to suggest she can be effective at this trip. Dance Angel is feared most and is entitled to have come forward for her debut sixth at Chelmsford, while Sophia's Starlight makes some appeal too.

MOUNTAIN LAKE may have found a very good opening on debut. Love Is A Rose and Sophia's Starlight are interesting on their return.

The vote goes to Godolphin's newcomer MOUNTAIN LAKE, who has a striking pedigree and represents an in-form yard.

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to determine with certainty which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, 9/1 (6) GOOD HUMOR and 1.5/1 (1) WALEYFA appear to be strong contenders, with 9/1 (6) GOOD HUMOR potentially leveraging a dangerous mark in handicap company and 1.5/1 (1) WALEYFA having a strong recent track record. 2.75/1 (4) PRECEDENT may also be worth considering as a possibility after a strong recent showing in a handicap, and 9/1 (3) GLOBAL TYCOON could potentially fare better with new blinkers. It is important to note that horse racing is unpredictable and unexpected outcomes are always possible.

WALEYFA regained the winning thread at Chelmsford last Thursday and a 5lb penalty may not prevent a third success since joining the Alice Haynes yard. Precedent offered plenty to work with when runner-up on his stable debut at Pontefract and is feared most. Shorts On ran with more encouragement at Yarmouth recently and he shouldn't be underestimated if breaking better this time round.

Having had excuses for her previous run, WALEYFA quickly got back on track returned to all-weather when winning readily at Chelmsford 8 days ago and she can follow up under a penalty. Precedent showed encouragement on his seasonal/stable debut last time and can be the one to give the selection most to think about, ahead of Global Tycoon.

This can go to whichever of WALEYFA and Precedent is best able to translate their recent good cheer on other surfaces to Tapeta.

1st: 0.62/1 (2) WEDGEWOOD; 2nd: 6.5/1 (7) REWILDING; 3rd: 33/1 (5) HUCKLEBERRY

WEDGEWOOD has proved a different proposition since returning as a three-year-old, with two ready triumphs over C&D last month, and a hat-trick looks on the cards off only 5lb higher. Handicap debutant Rewilding is a big danger with the potential that the son of Night Of Thunder may come forward considerably this year. Zebadaay is also interesting in first-time cheekpieces.

WEDGEWOOD appears to be thriving and this is a thin race, so she's clearly the one to beat. Handicap debutant Rewilding is interesting, while Zebadaay could show more.

The one that stands out is Tony Carroll's WEDGEWOOD (nap), who has found plenty of improvement with her two C&D wins this spring.

Based on the summary, 2.25/1 (1) BLUE YONDER seems to be the most likely to do well as it had a career-best win recently and is well in under the penalty. The horses that will finish in 1st, 2nd and 3rd places are: 1st - 2.25/1 (1) BLUE YONDER 2nd - 3/1 (3) INDICATION ROCKET 3rd - 5.5/1 (2) MAN MADE OF SMOKE

BLUE YONDER could not have won any easier at Beverley last time out and a 6lb penalty for that success may not be enough to prevent him going in again on his return to the all-weather. Man Made Of Smoke finally got off the mark over C&D last week and he can give him the most to think about, along with comfortable Newcastle scorer Indication Rocket.

One of a trio of last-time-out winners, BLUE YONDER improved when bolting up at Beverley 11 days ago and he gets the nod to come out on top again back on all weather. Indication Rocket may emerge as the chief threat, ahead of Man Made of Smoke.

Well in under his penalty and with stamina assured, BLUE YONDER is preferred to Elterwater, pick of the seasonal debutants.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary provided, 3/1 (1) GUNNERSIDE seems to be the most likely to do well. He has a recent win and is in good form, and is a course winner. 4.5/1 (5) CHIFA and 3/1 (2) WELOOF also have recent wins and are strongly respected, so they could also finish well. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 3/1 (1) GUNNERSIDE 2. 4.5/1 (5) CHIFA 3. 3/1 (2) WELOOF

CHIFA has become a regular winner over C&D of late, winning three of his last four, and a 5lb penalty for his most recent win looks manageable, especially with the form of that contest having already been franked in the interim. Gunnerside arrives with similar claims after scoring at Musselburgh last week, while Lingfield winner Weloof is another to note dropping in trip.

GUNNERSIDE has won two of his last three and is still well in on old form, so he gets the nod over fellow last-time-out scorers Chifa and Weloof.

Gunnerside is strongly respected but slight preference is for CHIFA, who has won over C&D in three of his last four runs.
