King Of Cities

11
11/1(-69%)
(8) King Of Cities 11/1, Some very useful form in defeat this season, including at 9f on one occasion and when third in 1m Gr 3 at Goodwood most recent run; bit more is needed.
1m1f Listed runner-up on reappearance and the return to this trip could be in his favour.

Boiling Point

28
28/1(-155%)
(1) Boiling Point 28/1, Smart sort who has run two creditable races for his new yard this season, last time fourth in 1m Listed race at Pontefract; unraced beyond 1m; more required to win this.
Listed winner last May; has run to form for new yard this year but needs something extra.

Skukuza

10/1(-67%)
(5) Skukuza 10/1, Soft ground a plausible excuse for below-par latest run in top handicap at Goodwood; previous clearcut win in Curragh Listed race (1m; unraced at further) gives him leading form claims.
Of interest on his Listed win at the Curragh in May; slow ground excuses subsequent defeat.

Gladius

2.5
5/2(+72%)
(7) Gladius 5/2, Yard won this last year; well backed when winning a good 9f handicap at Goodwood by a head last time; steadily progressive; may well come on again but has a bit to find.
2-2 in handicaps; today's company demands sizeable improvement but he's not ruled out.
5th

5th (4) King's Gambit (7/2 -40%)
King's Gambit

3.5
7/2(-40%)
(4) King's Gambit 7/2, On a losing run of seven while this drop in trip is an unknown factor; good form claims, including latest third in strong 10f Listed race at Ascot in June, when set bit too much to do.
Leading form claims but expensive to follow and a drop back in trip isn't an obvious plus.
6th

6th (3) Checkandchallenge (33/1 -32%)
Checkandchallenge

33
33/1(-32%)
(3) Checkandchallenge 33/1, Ran well when third in this last year and each-way claims on that; however, hard to win with and something to find on latest evidence, last time third in 1m Listed race at Pontefract.
On a long losing run but has posted lofty RPRs on his two previous runs here; interesting.
7th

7th (2) Bullet Point (9/4 +68%)
Bullet Point

2.25
9/4(+68%)
(2) Bullet Point 9/4, On an upward curve in top 1m handicaps, including fine front-running seconds at Ascot in June (Hunt Cup) and July before gutsy win here two days ago; more needed on quick return.
Won h'cap here on Thursday; this would be quick turnaround but he has Group-race potential.

8th (6) Bowmark (5/1 +0%)
Bowmark

5
5/1(+0%)
(6) Bowmark 5/1, Well held in Prix du Jockey Club last time, when doing too much too soon and stamina maybe failed him; highly promising at 1m previously; potential improver now for top yard.
Weakened in the Prix du Jockey Club but retains potential now back down in trip/grade.
LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

13:50 York (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Bowmark is two from four, with both of his victories coming in novice company. The son of Kingman found the Prix du Jockey Club too much of an ask last time and will appreciate this easier assignment, but a chance can be taken on GLADIUS. Andrew Balding's colt is unbeaten in two starts in handicaps, most recently scoring at Glorious Goodwood, and he continues to go from strength to strength. The son of Night Of Thunder has a lot to find on official ratings, but he is improving at a rapid rate of knots and may well be up to the task. King's Gambit completes the shortlist.

Form pick King's Gambit has become expensive to follow. The vote goes to CHECKANDCHALLENGE (nap), who was third at 33-1 last year.

5/1(-43%)
(3) Tarriance 5/1, Yard has won two of last five runnings; well-bred, lightly raced and progressive colt who was very plucky winner upped to 14f last time at Sandown; Leger entry; up 4lb; major claims.
Dug deep to win at Sandown and optimism he'll have more left in the tank; major player.

Many Men

(6) Many Men 9/2, Having a fine season with three good wins, including at Doncaster (14f) and Ascot (2m) in two of last three runs; up 3lb in a better-contested race than last time and bit more is needed.

Daiquiri Bay

8
8/1(+0%)
(2) Daiquiri Bay 8/1, Creditable efforts in top 12f (unraced at further) and 10f handicaps at Ascot and then Goodwood lately; more is needed but he's lightly raced and dam was a 2m winner, so may stay well.
Respectable efforts in hot 1m4f/1m2f handicaps and his dam won at up to 2m; not ruled out.

4th (11) Sea Of Kings (10/1 -43%)
Sea Of Kings

10/1(-43%)
(11) Sea Of Kings 10/1, Useful maiden whose handicap debut form from last time at Goodwood can be upgraded a bit (tardily away and hampered); related to a stack of winners; up in trip now; more needed.

(12) Novelista 5/1, Useful maiden who went very close to winning in valuable 14f Haydock handicap two starts back and then ran to form back at 12f at Goodwood; each-way claims.

Boatswain

14
14/1(+13%)
(1) Boatswain 14/1, Lightly-raced 3yo who ran to form when upped to 14f and fourth of six at Sandown last time; needs to find more on that form to be a win contender.
Hasn't shown enough in his two handicaps to suggest he'll be winning this.

Love Talk

80
80/1(-100%)
(9) Love Talk 80/1, Has faced some tough tasks over a variety of trips at up to 12f this season; latest below-par 7l second of three back handicapping makes her opposable; uncertain stayer up in trip too.
Has run over various trips; this is a new one; others have more substance to their claims.
10th

Cape Breton

18
18/1(+36%)
(5) Cape Breton 18/1, Won well at Salisbury on penultimate start before latest creditable fourth at Goodwood (led), both at 12f (unraced at further); that latest sound effort in particular commands respect.

Golden Handshake

7.5

12th (10) Talismans Time (14/1 -17%)
Talismans Time

14
14/1(-17%)
(10) Talismans Time 14/1, Up in both grade and the weights; however, he's lightly raced and progressive and the way he won over 13f on handicap debut last time strongly suggests he'll stay 14f fine; claims.
Hamilton handicap debut win came against older horses in small field but he did it readily.
LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

14:25 York (Class 2) 13f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Golden Handshake, Fantasy World, Talismans Time and Pole Star are all bidding for hat-tricks, with slight preference of those for the Charlie Johnston-trained latter after his Yarmouth success last month. However, they might have to play supporting roles behind TARRIANCE, who has progressed in his four outings. The son of Frankel made a winning start in handicap company at Sandown and a 4lb rise might prove to be on the lenient side. With lots of improvement to come, he looks the one to side with.

There was lots to like about the way TARRIANCE battled to beat a major improver from the Prescott stable at Sandown last month.

Never So Brave

3.5
7/2(-27%)
(4) Never So Brave 7/2, Has developed into high-class performer, winning top 7f handicap and then 1m Gr 2, both at Ascot, recently; did well to reel in clear leader last time; up in grade but has to be respected.
Won Royal Ascot handicap and followed up in Ascot Group 2; respected now in a Group 1.

Lake Forest

12
12/1(-9%)
(3) Lake Forest 12/1, Too much to do when good second in Gr 2 at Goodwood latest; that form can be upgraded and, on the pick of his efforts, this former Gimcrack winner here as a 2yo is a player in this.
Beaten nearly 3l when runner-up in Group 2 Lennox Stakes; may find a few too good.

Maranoa Charlie

9
9/1(-64%)
(9) Maranoa Charlie 9/1, Triple Gr 3 winner who was excellent second in 7f Gr 1 Prix Jean Prat at Deauville latest; real 7f specialist who has a fine attitude; Rosallion apart, has the form to have a big say; claims.
French-trained front-runner who went very close in Group 1 latest; firmly in calculations.

Rosallion

(7) Rosallion 1/1, Triple Gr 1 winner, including at 7f (as a 2yo); too much to do, probably should have won, when second in Sussex Stakes (1m) at Goodwood latest; has a potential class edge on these.
Has gone close in 1m Group 1s the last twice; strong claims if return to 7f isn't an issue.

(5) Qirat 20/1, Allowed too much rope up front when narrowly holding off Rosallion for 150-1 win in Gr 1 Sussex Stakes at Goodwood (1m; 7f is fine) last time; flattered by that; bit to find otherwise.
Pacemaker when winning Sussex Stakes at 150-1; major doubts about him reproducing the form.

Exactly

9
9/1(+44%)
(11) Exactly 9/1, 7f Gr 3 winner as a 2yo; some very smart form this season, including when not beaten far in 1m Gr 1 at Deauville latest; more needed against the boys this time.
Aidan O'Brien's sole runner; worth a second look but others have more substance to claims.

7th (1) Annaf (66/1 +0%)
Annaf

66
66/1(+0%)
(1) Annaf 66/1, Smart performer whose finest hour came when scooping a massive pot at 7f in Saudi Arabia 18 months ago; plenty to find on these terms at this level and others are preferred.
Went close in Group 3 Chipchase on AW in June; two lesser runs since and up against it.
8th
10
8th (10) Seagulls Eleven (50/1 -213%)
Seagulls Eleven

50
50/1(-213%)
(10) Seagulls Eleven 50/1, Smart 2yo (including at 7f) and just as good this season, last time making all and boxing on well to win 1m Gr 3 at Goodwood; more definitely needed here, though.
Won 4-runner Group 3 at Glorious Goodwood; supplemented for this but could be vulnerable.
9th

9th (2) Audience (20/1 -25%)
Audience

20
20/1(-25%)
(2) Audience 20/1, Best run of his season when third at Goodwood last time but still well below last season's high-class best form; blinkers first time; second in this in 2023; claims if he can fully revive.
Last season's Lockinge winner; leading claims on that form but below his best this year.

Quinault

25/1(-25%)
(6) Quinault 25/1, Raced too freely when bit below-par at Goodwood latest; enjoys making it, especially here (three from three here); needs a career-best to be a win contender.
Something to find but York is his favourite course and he may well make another bold bid.
LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

15:00 York (Class 1) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Audience was odds-on to land this prize last year but had to settle for fourth and faces much tougher opposition now, probably due to the now-Group 1 status of the event. Never So Brave has improved 14lb since switching to the Andrew Balding yard and merits the utmost respect, but it's hard to get away from ROSALLION. Twice a Group 1 winner as a three-year-old, he has been unfortunate not to land another this season. Touched off in the Queen Anne before getting closest to shock Sussex Stakes hero Qirat at Goodwood, the son of Blue Point may just relish this drop in trip and can gain another top-level triumph.

1m may be preferable for Rosallion and a chance is taken on QUINAULT, who loves York and won a C&D Group 3 in June.

(6) Ethical Diamond 5/1, Flat stamina to prove upped from 12f but could see him being dropped in and travelling strongly for a long way, as when winning top 12f Ascot handicap last time; respected.

A work in progress back on the Flat; needs to show something very new to win this.

Won two of last three; 1m6f makes appeal and first-time cheekpieces might sharpen him up.

15:35 York (Class 2) 13f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Willie Mullins has won this twice before, most recently with Absurde in 2023, and last year's fifth Hipop De Loire is back for more off 3lb higher after an easy maiden hurdle win at Galway. He can go well but if FRENCH MASTER takes to a first-time visor, he may have the edge. Successful over this sort of trip at Goodwood and Ascot, he was only fifth in the Goodwood Cup but, back in handicap company, he could prove too good. Fleetfoot is just one other to consider, with his 4lb penalty unlikely to be enough to stop another bold effort.

Impressive Royal Ascot winner ETHICAL DIAMOND is preferred to Ascending, 2024 Ebor runner-up Kihavah and Siege Of Troy.

Prolific winner in Sweden, 3-3 this year; no threat on British debut; hard to assess.

16:10 York (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Nimitz looks overpriced after finishing ninth at Goodwood when drawn away from the action and, with an added furlong, he could mount a challenge. Tropical Storm has a two-out-of-two record here but he needs to bounce back from a poor run at Ascot, and TWO TRIBES gets the nod. After supplementing his International triumph with an easy victory in the Stewards' Cup, Richard Spencer's four-year-old has been upped a further 8lb but Ryan Moore takes the ride and he can land the hat-trick.

Northern Ticker is unexposed but the well-bred POCKLINGTON makes even more appeal after an unlucky C&D run last month.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

16:45 York (Class 1) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

DICKENSIAN only found one too good in the Windsor Castle at Royal Ascot and followed that up with a fine third in the Molecomb. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give the son of Pinatubo a big chance here. That said, this a very competitive event and Rydale Frosty was only narrowly behind the selection at Goodwood. David Simcock's colt has to be of interest, while Military Code is another with strong form claims. The shortlist is completed by Revival Power and Silent Applause.

A few hold chances but the vote goes to REVIVAL POWER, who impressed with the speed she showed at Goodwood and can improve again.

17:20 York (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Westridge was an impressive winner of a valuable handicap at Glorious Goodwood and has to be respected, although an 8lb rise demands more. As a result, preference is for GREEK ORDER, who has been running consistently well in top mile handicaps this year and the step up in trip could bring about improvement. Erzindjan's fourth in the John Smith's Cup over C&D brings him into the equation, while Marhaba Ghaiyyath and Tony Montana are others who could make the frame.

Although MARHABA GHAIYYATH went up another 7lb for not winning at Goodwood, it may not stop him as that form has already been boosted.

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.

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.
