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

4/1 (8) ELJAYTEE seems like a strong contender as they had a breakthrough success over the same course and distance in heavy conditions in their most recent race, with their form being confirmed by subsequent performances.

ELJAYTEE got off the mark on his return to action over C&D last month and a 3lb rise may not be enough to stop him from backing that up on this occasion. Miss Harmony scored at Lingfield on her penultimate start and is capable of bouncing back from her latest effort at Chelmsford, while others worth noting include Solanna and Habanero Star.

ELJAYTEE saw off a subsequent winner when opening his account on his return here recently and can strike again if in the same sort of form up just 3 lb. Habanero Star goes well at Yarmouth and has to be respected. Solanna is another to note under Oisin Murphy.

John Berry's ELJAYTEE (nap) returned an improved model when scoring over C&D and can defy a 3lb rise with that form having been franked

3/1 (2) BUNKER BAY seems like the strongest contender based on their consistent record of finishing in the top three, good recent form, and potential for improvement with the addition of a hood. 3.33/1 (4) YORKINDNESS and Keen-going sort also have potential to perform well.

BUNKER BAY proved to be consistent once switched to handicap company, finishing second on three occasions, and the first-time hood could make the difference required for him to shed the maiden tag. Sarkha wasn't disgraced when making his handicap bow at Wolverhampton last month and he is capable of stepping forward, while Yorkindness's second at Beverley gives her every chance to be in the mix.

YORKINDNESS returned with a good effort at Beverley and can build on that with victory. Bunker Bay and Placated both make their seasonal comebacks and should be winning this term.

A chance is taken on SARKHA, who got messed about in a muddling race when better was expected of him on his handicap debut.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, some horses that could do well are 1.75/1 (11) WILD SIDE, 3.5/1 (10) TAJALAT, 6.5/1 (3) HAKUNA BABE, 7.5/1 (1) AYYAB, 12/1 (6) MORNING COLOURS, and 20/1 (4) ITHRA. However, without more information about the race and the track, it is difficult to make a confident prediction.

WILD SIDE took a decent step forward from her juvenile efforts when second at Pontefract last Monday and the daughter of Kodiac boasts strong credentials to go one better, especially with Oisin Murphy booked for the ride. Tajalat is likely to prove popular on her racecourse bow, with her half-sister being a winner on debut, while Morning Colours, a half-sister to Listed winner Eirene, and Ayyab appeal most of the remainder.

WILD SIDE led pretty much everywhere bar the line on her comeback at Pontefract last week and that was much better from her, so she's taken to open her account now. Tajalat is a likely-looking newcomer for Roger Varian, as is Ayyab for Seb Woods.

Roger Varian's Showcasing newcomer TAJALAT brings plenty of potential and she gets the verdict at the chief expense of Wild Side
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary, as each one has their own strengths and weaknesses. However, based on recent form and positive changes, 1.88/1 (7) GRAND LIBYA and 4.5/1 (5) DASHING DICK may be worth considering as potential contenders. 1.88/1 (7) GRAND LIBYA has performed well in two 1m handicaps on the Newcastle AW and has shown improvement with the use of a visor. 4.5/1 (5) DASHING DICK has a consistent run of form in 7f/1m Polytrack handicaps and may rebound from a poor performance in heavy conditions with a return to better conditions.

REGAL RAMBLER could be worth siding with on his turf and handicap debut following a below-par run at Chelmsford over 1m2f in January. A mark of 73 looks workable for the gelded son of Dark Angel and there is likely to be more in his locker. Grand Libya has been consistent of late and remains of interest on his return to turf, while Siam Fox could also bounce back from his most recent run on the all-weather.

Cases can be made for most but GRAND LIBYA has taken his form up a level since fitted with headgear and having been gelded since last seen, Tom Clover's charge gets the tentative nod to open his account. The main threat could be Dandy Maestro, who came good around this time last year and ran respectably after 4 months off at Kempton recently. Regal Rambler can fill out third spot.

William Stone's DASHING DICK was running well before getting stuck in the mud at Leicester and he's taken to win for a third time.

1.63/1 (3) EMBESTO and 6/1 (2) COVERT LEGEND seem to be the most promising based on their pedigrees and past performances. 3.5/1 (12) UMBERTO, 5/1 (10) TAJDIF, 9/1 (6) SERENGETI SUNSET, and 16/1 (7) STAR AHOY also have some potential for improvement. The others may need more experience and time to develop.

Runner-up on both career starts, UMBERTO can have a big say in proceedings based on what he has shown to date. He is entitled to be sharper for his return to action at Lingfield in March, although a first-time hood could see Tajdif build on a fair fourth at Newcastle on debut and he can give the selection plenty to think about. Newcomers Embesto and Story Of Peace are others worthy of a market check.

Preference is for COVERT LEGEND, who met plenty of trouble in running when an encouraging fourth on debut at Kempton last month. He should have learnt plenty from that. Umberto and Serengeti Sunset are also open to improvement and may provide the chief threat in what promises to be an informative contest.

A dangerous betting race with a lot of these open to improvement. UMBERTO just about sets the standard and he can improve some more.

Based on the summary, the horse that is most likely to do well is 3.33/1 (1) KODIAS SANGARIUS. It has recently finished in second place in a handicap race and is racing off the same mark, which makes it a strong contender. Additionally, it is described as

Despite hanging right in the closing stages, KODIAS SANGARIUS hit the line with plenty of conviction when runner-up at Kempton last month and gets the nod to relish this step back up in trip. A mark of 71 may still underestimate the four-year-old's ability and she can be on the premises yet again. Liberty Mountain was last seen landing the spoils at Lingfield and she is the most immediate danger on seasonal reappearance, while Invested is another to consider.

KODIAS SANGARIUS made a good start for her new yard at Kempton last month and is entitled to build on that. She can land the spoils. Liberty Mountain and Risotto are feared most.

Henry Spiller's KODIAS SANGARIUS made a promising start when runner-up at Kempton last time and can go one better off an unchanged mark

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Based on the summary, 1.88/1 (3) TASKHEER and 4/1 (1) BROXI seem to be the strongest contenders. 1.88/1 (3) TASKHEER has been performing well recently with 2 wins from 4 runs this year and a good fourth place finish in a recent handicap race. 4/1 (1) BROXI has previously completed a hat-trick at this distance and is only 1 lb above his last winning mark. 4.5/1 (4) LUNA QUEEN and 6.5/1 (5) SPANISH MANE also have potential but may not be as strong as 1.88/1 (3) TASKHEER and 4/1 (1) BROXI. The other horses seem to be less convincing choices for a potential winner.

Taskheer has landed the spoils on two of his last three outings and the son of Golden Horn is a big player. That said, all of his three career victories have come over further than this and it may be best to side with BROXI. The handicapper has continued to loosen their grip on the C&D winner and he may be able to bounce back from a lacklustre effort at Windsor now stepping into calmer waters. Spanish Mane posted a respectable effort when fifth at this venue last month and she completes the shortlist.

BROXI is on a workable mark and will be suited by the return to this shorter trip. He gets the nod in the finale. Taskheer and Luna Queen look the likeliest dangers.

In his current form TASKHEER appeals as the most likely winner, even though he's perhaps better at 1m.
