1	4 1st (4) (3/1 +14%) Grenham Bay		3 3/1(+14%)																															(4) Grenham Bay 3/1, Career best when winning 9-runner minor event at Kempton (6f, 2/1) 33 days ago. Makes handicap debut from a very mark and there should be more to come. Collared a subsequent handicap winner in 6f AW novice last month; has more to offer.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/1 +0%) Snuggle		10 10/1(+0%)																															(3) Snuggle 10/1, Easy-to-back but ran right up to form when third of 9 in novice event at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 23 days ago. Doesn't boast the scope of a few back in a handicap. Below form when odds on two starts ago but this season's other two runs make him a player.
3	9 3rd (9) (5.5/1 +15%) Musical Tribute		5.5 5.5/1(+15%)																															(9) Musical Tribute 5.5/1, Sound reappearance when third of 9 in maiden (11/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 34 days ago. Makes handicap debut for in-form yard but mark demands more. Third in 7f AW maiden on seasonal debut; back in trip for handicap debut; has potential.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 -43%) Big R		10 10/1(-43%)																															(8) Big R 10/1, Improved again when second of 11 in novice event at Kempton (6f). Off 7 months. Makes handicap debut. Made the frame in two AW novice races last summer; makes handicap debut after a layoff.
5th	6 5th (6) (40/1 -43%) Optiva Star		40 40/1(-43%)																															(6) Optiva Star 40/1, Gelded after 2-y-o campaign but still looked a hard ride when seventh of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy) 17 days ago. Back down markedly in trip. Today's drop back in trip is an interesting move but others have much less to prove.
6th	1 6th (1) (6/1 +25%) De Bruyne		6 6/1(+25%)																															(1) De Bruyne 6/1, Promising individual. Won 9-runner novice event (15/8) at Newcastle (6f), finding extra. Off 153 days. Makes handicap debut. Should have more to offer. Ended three-race 2yo season with 6f AW novice win; bit more needed today.
7th	10 7th (10) (8/1 +20%) Spirit Of Breeze		8 8/1(+20%)																															(10) Spirit Of Breeze 8/1, Gelded but still refused to settle when fourth of 10 in novice event at Kempton (6f, 25/1) 17 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Raced far too freely when fourth in AW novice last month; can improve if more relaxed here.
8th	2 8th (2) (9/1 -6%) Desperate Hero		9 9/1(-6%)																															(2) Desperate Hero 9/1, Chepstow winner last summer but off 9 months and looked rusty when fifth of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy, 15/2) 22 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Won an ordinary novice last summer but his seasonal/handicap debut was underwhelming.
9th	7 9th (7) (11/1 +31%) Flying Spirit		11 11/1(+31%)																															(7) Flying Spirit 11/1, Justified favouritism at Lingfield in November. Good second of 8 in nursery (13/8) at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 137 days. Can give a good account on return to 6f not expected to pose a problem. In good form in 7f AW nurseries in late 2022; contender if today's test also suits.
10th	5 10th (5) (6/1 -9%) Skallywag Bay		6 6/1(-9%)																															(5) Skallywag Bay 6/1, Put experience to good use when winning 10-runner novice event at Kempton (6f), having run of race. Off 7 months. Makes handicap debut from a fair-looking mark. Improved form when making all in 6f AW novice in September, her third start.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will finish in the top three. However, some horses have more potential than others based on recent performances and improvements. One horse to consider is 6/1 (5) SKALLYWAG BAY, who has shown improved form and won a novice event at Kempton before taking a break for seven months. She is making her handicap debut from a fair-looking mark and could potentially do well. Another horse worth considering is 3/1 (4) GRENHAM BAY, who has won a minor event at Kempton and is making her handicap debut from a very fair mark. She has also shown potential by collaring a subsequent handicap winner in a 6f AW novice race. 6/1 (1) DE BRUYNE is another horse with potential, having ended his 2yo season with a 6f AW novice win. He has been off for 153 days but could potentially offer more in his handicap debut. Therefore, based on recent form and potential, the horses predicted to finish in the top three

De Bruyne makes his handicap debut following a game win on the all-weather in December, but he has to shoulder top weight in this contest so SNUGGLE shades the vote on this occasion. He finished a decent third over this trip at Pontefract last month and can get off the mark now returning to the handicap ranks. Grenham Bay remains unexposed and adds further spice to the race, along with Big R.

Assuming he's as effective on turf, Kempton-winner GRENHAM BAY looks well weighted switched to a handicap with the prospect of better to come. De Bruyne also has improvement in the pipeline, with Flying Spirit another to consider on his return to action.

The form GRENHAM BAY showed when winning a Kempton novice last month has been given a good boost by the second since. He gets the nod.

1	4 1st (4) (10/1 +64%) Kentucky Bluegrass		10 10/1(+64%)																															(4) Kentucky Bluegrass 10/1, Once-raced maiden. 16/1, eighth of 11 in minor event at this C&D (heavy) on debut, missing break. Off 6 months. Up against it. Gelded since last seen. In need of experience when debut 8th over C&D; can step forward on his seasonal return.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -11%) Man Of A'An		5 5/1(-11%)																															(5) Man Of A'An 5/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 14 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 20/1) on debut 36 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve. Encouraging start with Kempton novice 6th; this son of Highland Reel can build on it now.
3	3 3rd (3) (0.83/1 +9%) Indiana Be		0.83 0.83/1(+9%)																															(3) Indiana Be 0.83/1, Fair gelding. Back from 7 months off when creditable second of 9 in maiden (9/4) at Southwell (8.1f) 16 days ago. Entitled to build on that and is a leading contender. Good reappearance second in 1m Southwell maiden; he is firmly in the picture again.
4	6 4th (6) (16/1 +27%) Acclaimer		16 16/1(+27%)																															(6) Acclaimer 16/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in maiden (9/1) at Kempton (7f) on debut 15 days ago, worst of draw. Others preferred. Green when debut 8th in 7f Kempton maiden; should be all the better for the experience.
5th	1 5th (1) (125/1 -89%) Cawthornes Gem		125 125/1(-89%)																															(1) Cawthornes Gem 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, last of 15 in minor event at this course (6f, good to firm). Off 8 months. Gelded since last seen. Cut little ice in a pair of 6f novices last summer; returns with lots to prove.
6th	2 6th (2) (3/1 +0%) Gold Guy		3 3/1(+0%)																															(2) Gold Guy 3/1, Posted fair form when second of 7 in minor event (8/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut in January. Should have learnt plenty from that and holds solid claims. Promising debut 2nd in 7f Newcastle novice; that form has been franked so he's a player.
7th	7 7th (7) (125/1 -56%) King Of The Jungle		125 125/1(-56%)																															(7) King Of The Jungle 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, tenth of 15 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 6 days ago. Offered little over 7f in Southwell novice and Doncaster maiden; others much preferred.
8th	9 8th (9) (50/1 -257%) Pearly Star		50 50/1(-257%)																															(9) Pearly Star 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. 20/1, seventh of 9 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 9 days ago. Others more persuasive. Hinted at promise in two 7f Wolverhampton novices; she may do better so is no forlorn hope.
9th	8 9th (8) (33/1 +0%) Madge Mcsplash		33 33/1(+0%)																															(8) Madge Mcsplash 33/1, Massaat filly. Half-sister to several winners, including winner up to 1m Magic Cat and 7f/1m winner Magic Destiny, both useful. Dam 6f winner. Massaat filly who appeals on paper but market can prove a good guide for this newcomer.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, the horses that have a good chance of finishing in the top 3 are 0.83/1 (3) INDIANA BE, 10/1 (4) KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS, and 3/1 (2) GOLD GUY. 0.83/1 (3) INDIANA BE had a good reappearance and is in the picture, while 10/1 (4) KENTUCKY BLUEGRASS can step forward on his seasonal return. 3/1 (2) GOLD GUY had a promising debut and his form has been franked, making him a solid player. 33/1 (8) MADGE MCSPLASH, although appealing on paper, may need the market's guidance as a newcomer. The rest of the horses are either less convincing or have previously shown poor form.

INDIANA BE has been consistent enough so far and looks worth persevering with now he is back on turf. The son of Sioux Nation, who was a good second from a 1lb lower mark in a C&D nursery last September, sets a reasonable standard for a race of this nature and looks the logical choice. Gold Guy went close on his debut at Newcastle in January and a step forward would see him on the premises. Acclaimer and Man Of A'an also warrant respect and they are worth a check in the betting market.

This can go to INDIANA BE, who was clear of the remainder when runner-up on his return at Southwell last month and likely has more to offer yet. Gold Guy and Man of A'an are feared most.

Newcastle second GOLD GUY is taken to go one better and edge out his main form rival Indiana Be

1	2 1st (2) (0.83/1 -66%) Hey Lyla		0.83 0.83/1(-66%)																															(2) Hey Lyla 0.83/1, Fairly useful filly. Remains a maiden after 7 Flat runs. 4/1, second of 6 in novice event at Epsom (8.5f, heavy) on return 9 days ago. Clear pick on form.
2	5 2nd (5) (8.5/1 +39%) Out Of Mischief		8.5 8.5/1(+39%)																															(5) Out Of Mischief 8.5/1, Twice-raced filly. 125/1, better effort when fourth of 11 in novice event at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 159 days.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, 0.83/1 (2) HEY LYLA seems like the clear pick on form and has recently performed well. For the remaining two places, 2/1 (1) FLEUR DE MER has a good pedigree with multiple winners in the family, but their debut performance was not strong. 9/1 (6) PURNIKA has an interesting pedigree and is a newcomer to watch out for. 1st place: 0.83/1 (2) HEY LYLA 2nd place: 9/1 (6) PURNIKA 3rd place: 2/1 (1) FLEUR DE MER

HEY LYLA remains a maiden after seven starts, but she continues to run well in defeat. Charlie Johnston's filly sets the standard on official ratings and must hold every chance of opening her account, providing she can run to a similar level. Purnika boasts an appealing pedigree and she merits the utmost respect on debut, while Out Of Mischief, who finished a good fourth at Wolverhampton in November, has the ability to go close too.

HEY LYLA bumped into a useful one at Epsom on her return and this represents an excellent opportunity. David O'Meara's newcomer Purnika may emerge as the biggest threat.

Charlie Johnston's filly HEY LYLA is beginning to look exposed after seven runs but she has shown some fairly useful form.

Off 91 days but retains handicap scope for in-form yard with Murphy booked. Best form since back from absence when fluent 6f AW winner in February; still well treated.
3	5 3rd (5) (10/1 -11%) Michaels Choice		10 10/1(-11%)																															(5) Michaels Choice 10/1, C&D winner. 11/2, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f), not ideally placed. Off 173 days and won over C&D on last season's reappearance. Won both C&D starts, including on return in 2022; has won on good to soft; headgear off.

Well handicapped if he can build on that. Hood left off. Two 6f wins on soft/good; been quiet but well treated now and back to form latest.
5th	4 5th (4) (11/1 +8%) Darvel		11 11/1(+8%)																															(4) Darvel 11/1, Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, heavy, 16/1) 17 days ago. Back down on last winning mark and now tries 6f for first time since 2-y-o days. Pace-setting winner of two 1m handicaps in 2022; below best this year; now back at 6f.
6th	9 6th (9) (3.5/1 +86%) Be Prepared		3.5 3.5/1(+86%)																															(9) Be Prepared 3.5/1, C&D winner. 25/1, last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 17 days ago. Needs to leave that heavy defeat well behind. C&D winner on good to soft; retains ability since back from absence; well treated.
7th	10 7th (10) (25/1 -56%) Gilt Edge		25 25/1(-56%)																															(10) Gilt Edge 25/1, Below form sixth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm), unable to sustain effort. Off 8 months but returns with yard among the winners. Can run well after a break but on a losing run and best form on good or quicker ground.
8th	3 8th (3) (20/1 -150%) Matty Too		20 20/1(-150%)																															(3) Matty Too 20/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Leicester (7f, good to firm, 12/1). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Tim Easterby but joined another good yard. All 4 wins at 6f/7f on good ground; soft could tax him on return from break for new yard.
9th	11 9th (11) (11/1 -83%) Oriental Spirit		11 11/1(-83%)																															(11) Oriental Spirit 11/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap (11/8) at Kempton (6f) 15 days ago. Clearly backed as though much better was expected. Has C&D form; this stiff finish should suit and likely to come on for recent reappearance.
10th	2 10th (2) (11/1 -29%) Airshow		11 11/1(-29%)																															(2) Airshow 11/1, Latest win at Southwell in March. Bit below form fourth of 8 in handicap (10/3) at Southwell (6.1f) 25 days ago. Equally effective on turf and capable of bouncing back. Most wins on good/quicker; made all back at 7f on AW in March; not ruled out back on turf.

Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Still 4lb higher than latest AW win in January; below best of late; trip query back at 6f.

LTO Selection:

1st place: 6.5/1 (1) PARISIAC 2nd place: 2.75/1 (6) WITH RESPECT 3rd place: 11/1 (4) DARVEL

It could be worth siding with MATTY TOO, who was last seen securing a comfortable success at Leicester over 7f last October. He made all on that occasion, so a drop in trip may not be enough to stop him making a winning seasonal debut off 2lb higher. Parisiac lines up off the same mark as when a decent third at Thirsk last time out and can give the selection most to think about, while Airshow is another to bear in mind.

WITH RESPECT emphatically stopped the slide in a first-time tongue strap when successful at Southwell in February and this revised mark should be well within range. He's the most persuasive option with Oisin Murphy a positive jockey booking, though Michaels Choice is interesting having won on last season's reappearance over C&D. Oriental Spirit is also considered.

Well-treated WITH RESPECT is suited by soft ground and is quite appealing after a convincing AW win in February.

Should be spot on now and figures off a handy mark. Largely consistent last year; raced alone at Pontefract 23 days ago; can bounce back.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 -9%) Bay Dream Believer		12 12/1(-9%)																															(5) Bay Dream Believer 12/1, Last of 8 in handicap at Beverley (12.1f, good to soft, 12/1) 15 days ago.

3	1 3rd (1) (3/1 +25%) Like A Lion		3 3/1(+25%)																															(1) Like A Lion 3/1, Below form the last twice but is back down to his last winning mark and can't be ruled out. Arrives below par on AW/turf; handily weighted now so he can't be totally dismissed.
4	3 4th (3) (28/1 -100%) Butterfly Island		28 28/1(-100%)																															(3) Butterfly Island 28/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. First run since leaving D. K. Weld when last of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 28/1) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Makes limited appeal. Last of five at Chelmsford latest; cheekpieces reached for now with lots more required.
5th	7 5th (7) (9/1 -50%) Give Grace		9 9/1(-50%)																															(7) Give Grace 9/1, 20/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, heavy) 22 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Others more persuasive. Yet to fire in two runs this season, beating only one each time; takes a big drop in trip.
6th	2 6th (2) (3/1 -9%) King Carney		3 3/1(-9%)																															(2) King Carney 3/1, Disappointed last time but scored at Newcastle over this trip in February and is on a workable mark. Won at Newcastle in February but too free there last time; worth another chance now.
7th	6 7th (6) (5/1 +29%) Positive Force		5 5/1(+29%)																															(6) Positive Force 5/1, Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 12/1) 16 days ago. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Yet to get his head in front and cheekpieces/tongue strap go back on with lots to prove.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict which horse will come in first, second, and third. However, some horses that may have a chance of placing could be 2.75/1 (4) LITTLE JO, 3/1 (1) LIKE A LION, and 3/1 (2) KING CARNEY. These horses have shown past success and are either at a handy mark or on a workable mark, making them potentially competitive in the race.

Like A Lion runs off his last winning mark and could be up to the task of coping with the burden of top weight in this selling handicap. However, he didn't appear to see out the trip when he was last tried over 1m and slight preference is for KING CARNEY, who is more proven over the distance and is effective on the predicted going. Butterfly Island is also considered now she is tried in first-time cheekpieces.

LITTLE JO wasn't seen to best effect at Pontefract last time and gets the nod in a race which may not take a great deal of winning. KIng Carney and Like A Lion are next best.

Newcastle scorer KING CARNEY is taken to bounce back in style having gone too freely last time and with Hollie Doyle now on board.

1	2 1st (2) (1.75/1 +36%) Star Shield		1.75 1.75/1(+36%)																															(2) Star Shield 1.75/1, C&D winner who arrives in good nick, travelling strongly when fifth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 21 days ago and giving impression he needed a stronger gallop. Weighted to go well eased 1 lb now. C&D winner last summer and went close off this mark on AW in March; likely contender.

Won five times last year but had gone off the boil by autumn, and came last on return run.

Respectable third of 10 to Flylikeaneagle in handicap (6/1) at Musselburgh (8f, good to soft) 26 days ago, sticking to task. Shortlisted. Unable to challenge Flylikeaneagle but still ran well when third last month.

However, 3/1 (5) SHINE ON BRENDAN and 1.75/1 (2) STAR SHIELD seem to be the most likely contenders, with both being C&D winners and arriving in good form. 3.33/1 (1) FLYLIKEANEAGLE also has potential, having recently won a handicap race at Musselburgh, but may struggle with a weight increase. 3.33/1 (3) SHOWMEDEMONEY could be a decent bet for a place, having consistently placed in recent races. Overall, the race seems quite competitive and any of these horses could place in the top three.

FLYLIKEANEAGLE struck by three lengths at Musselburgh last time on his return to the Flat, and the six-year-old gelding was raised 6lb for that effort. The quicker conditions are unlikely to trouble him and, with Brandon Wilkie claiming 7lb, he could prove very tough to beat. An interesting contender is Alpine Sierra, who makes his return to action after having a wind operation and tries a first-time tongue-tie, which could eke out improvement. Star Shield is another to note.

C&D scorer STAR SHIELD shaped as if in top form when fifth at Newcastle last time and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark at the chief expense of recent Musselburgh victor Flylikeaneagle, who can also boast a C&D win and rates a big threat. In-form Showmedemoney appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

5	5 (5) (300/1 -140%) Yankee Spirit		300 300/1(-140%)																															(5) Yankee Spirit 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in novice event at Leicester (7f, heavy, 50/1) 20 days ago. Outsider when towards rear on both starts; surely one for later on.
1	4 1st (4) (6.5/1 +7%) Quddwah		6.5 6.5/1(+7%)																															(4) Quddwah 6.5/1, Kingman colt. Closely related to 7f winner Lawahed, and half-brother to 7f-11f winner Nabbeyl and 1m winner Barshaa. Dam 1m-10.4f winner. Ticks a lot of boxes on paper. Kingman newcomer who's very much one to note.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 +50%) Balance Play		3.5 3.5/1(+50%)																															(1) Balance Play 3.5/1, Merely matched debut form when third of 12 in minor event (18/5) at Kempton (7f). Off 157 days. Showed promise and plenty of ability last autumn; late foal with useful pedigree.
3	2 3rd (2) (0.67/1 +0%) Greek Order		0.67 0.67/1(+0%)																															(2) Greek Order 0.67/1, Promising type. 6/4, second of 10 in novice event at Newmarket (7f, good to soft), running on. Retains plenty of potential as a 3-y-o. Narrowly the best form in this field and he should still have significant potential.
4	6 4th (6) (20/1 -43%) Yellow Lion		20 20/1(-43%)																															(6) Yellow Lion 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, third of 7 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, soft) 16 days ago, well positioned. Needs to improve again to land a novice. Third of seven at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) 16 days ago; another step forward is needed.
5th	3 5th (3) (150/1 -127%) Island Native		150 150/1(-127%)																															(3) Island Native 150/1, Sixth of 9 in novice event at Kempton (6f, 100/1) 33 days ago. Modest form in his second AW start (both this year); this race will surely prove too tough.
6th	8 6th (8) (4.5/1 -35%) Shaaden		4.5 4.5/1(-35%)																															(8) Shaaden 4.5/1, Promising type. Third of 12 in novice event at this C&D (good, 13/2) on debut. That race worked out pretty well and there should be lots more to come. 13-2, travelled well over 2f out when 3rd in C&D novice (7f, good to soft) last September.
7th	10 7th (10) (100/1 -203%) Sundowner		100 100/1(-203%)																															(10) Sundowner 100/1, Seventh of 10 in novice event at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 18/1). Off 6 months. Modest form towards rear at Newbury (7f, good) and Wolverhampton (6f, AW) last autumn.
8th	7 8th (7) (300/1 -140%) Marisitta		300 300/1(-140%)																															(7) Marisitta 300/1, 66/1, fifth of 6 in maiden at Newbury (7f, heavy) on debut 13 days ago. 66-1, upset in the stalls and slowly away at Newbury (7f, soft) 13 days ago, beaten 16l.

LTO Selection:

Based on the information provided, the horse that is most likely to do well is 0.67/1 (2) GREEK ORDER. The horse has narrowly the best form in the field and is a promising type with significant potential. It finished second in a novice event at Newmarket and retains plenty of potential as a 3-year-old. My predictions for the top three horses in the race are: 1. 0.67/1 (2) GREEK ORDER 2. 4.5/1 (8) SHAADEN 3. 3.5/1 (1) BALANCE PLAY

GREEK ORDER has performed to a fair level on both of his career starts. The son of Kingman hit the frame over C&D on his debut, before being narrowly denied at Newmarket next time out. That level of form gives him leading claims and he can open his account at the third time of asking. Shaaden merits the utmost respect along with Balance Play, while Quddwah is worth a market check ahead of his debut.

GREEK ORDER didn't make the big leap expected of him following a very promising debut when second at Newmarket in the autumn but this well-bred colt retains plenty of potential this year. Shaaden is another useful prospect in the making, with Quddwah an interesting newcomer.

The Charltons' GREEK ORDER may emerge best, having been eclipsed in only the final strides at Newmarket last October.

1	8 1st (8) (8.5/1 -89%) Coverdale		8.5 8.5/1(-89%)																															(8) Coverdale 8.5/1, Found improvement when close second of 15 in nursery at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) in October. Should be more to come this term, particularly over this longer trip. Gelded since last seen. Improved with each of 4 runs at 2yrs; looks to have more to offer now upped in distance.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 -140%) Roaring Legend		3 3/1(-140%)																															(4) Roaring Legend 3/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Below level of first 2 starts when third of 8 in maiden (11/10) at Newcastle (8f) latest but it's still early days and this longer trip should suit on handicap debut. Tongue strap on 1st time/gelded since last seen. Placed all 3 outings; needs considering up in distance on his first go in h'cap company.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/1 +61%) Power Of Gold		7 7/1(+61%)																															(5) Power Of Gold 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 11/2, seventh of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (10.2f). Off 174 days. May do better now sent handicapping. Fair form shown on all three starts last autumn; no forlorn hope on h'cap debut.
4	1 4th (1) (7.5/1 +17%) Razoni		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(1) Razoni 7.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, very good second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 13/8) 29 days ago, clear of rest. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Enters calculations on turf debut. Best effort yet when clear Wolver 2nd 29 days ago; player again with cheekpieces added.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 +17%) Feud		5 5/1(+17%)																															(3) Feud 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 11/4, seventh of 13 in minor event at Kempton (8f). Off 169 days. Up in trip. Makes handicap debut. May well do better. Gelded since last seen. Shaped well first two runs; had an excuse last time; worth another chance on h'cap debut.
6th	2 6th (2) (1.88/1 +53%) Ribal		1.88 1.88/1(+53%)																															(2) Ribal 1.88/1, Stepped forward from his debut when third at Newmarket and returned with a solid showing to finish one place better at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy) last month. Warrants respect on handicap bow. Progressive Roaring Lion colt; good Doncaster 2nd latest; in the picture on h'cap debut.
7th	6 7th (6) (22/1 +0%) Boy Douglas		22 22/1(+0%)																															(6) Boy Douglas 22/1, Lightly-raced winner. Fourth of 6 in handicap (12/1) at Ripon (8f, soft) 14 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Encouraging Ripon 4th on return, fading only late on; he can take a step forward now.
8th	7 8th (7) (28/1 -27%) Sir Jock Bennett		28 28/1(-27%)																															(7) Sir Jock Bennett 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/2, below form seventh of 14 in minor event at this course (7f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Improvement needed on handicap debut. Gelded/had breathing operation since last seen. Failed to build on Haydock 3rd but has had wind op so not discounted on his h'cap debut.

1st: 7.5/1 (1) RAZONI 2nd: 8.5/1 (8) COVERDALE 3rd: 3/1 (4) ROARING LEGEND

FEUD had excuses when not scoping right after his third start at Kempton and the son of Dubawi, who has been gelded over the winter, is open to a fair amount of improvement on his handicap bow. Roaring Legend represents a stable who have enjoyed a fine start to the season and the application of a tongue-tie, along with a gelding operation, may see him enter the reckoning. Ribal, who finished runner-up at Doncaster on his return to action, and Razoni are others with viable claims.

COVERDALE progressed with each start last season and this longer trip may well unlock further improvement. He can make a winning return. Ribal and Razoni rate the principal dangers.

Ralph Beckett's FEUD (nap) should relish this new trip and show improvement on his handicap debut.

1	5 1st (5) (4/1 +43%) Foreseeable Future		4 4/1(+43%)																															(5) Foreseeable Future 4/1, Three wins from 15 runs last year. Off 6 months, likely needed the run when seventh of 12 on 5f Catterick reappearance 22 days ago. Back to last winning mark. Made low-key seasonal debut on soft ground; might need another run or two.
2	2 2nd (2) (3.5/1 -133%) Our Absent Friends		3.5 3.5/1(-133%)																															(2) Our Absent Friends 3.5/1, Successful twice over 5f at Newcastle since switching to handicaps. Remains unexposed and major player is as effective on turf. Lightly raced 5yo; dual 5f AW winner; player if this trip-and-surface combination suits.
3	4 3rd (4) (4.5/1 -13%) Thaki		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(4) Thaki 4.5/1, First run since leaving Jessica Macey when respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 17/2) 21 days ago, not ideally placed. Placed twice on AW this year and last month's stable debut was respectable; not ruled out.
4	1 4th (1) (1.75/1 +22%) Water Of Leith		1.75 1.75/1(+22%)																															(1) Water Of Leith 1.75/1, C&D scorer last summer and ended 2022 with a win at Newcastle in October. Down the field in 2 comeback runs this spring but this is easier than the Musselburgh Class 2 he contested last time and he's only 1 lb above his last successful mark. Did well after rejoining Jim Goldie last year; will find this easier than recent tasks.
5th	3 5th (3) (7.5/1 +38%) Tangled		7.5 7.5/1(+38%)																															(3) Tangled 7.5/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2021, including well held on AW at Newcastle (7f/1m) for new yard on final 2 outings last year. Remains to be seen if this drop back to 6f (for first time since 2019) helps. Best known as a miler now and not seen since two below-par AW runs in November.

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well. However, 1.75/1 (1) WATER OF LEITH and 3.5/1 (2) OUR ABSENT FRIENDS seem to have a higher chance of performing well as they have recent wins and are only slightly above their successful marks. 7.5/1 (3) TANGLED may struggle with the drop back to 6f, and 4/1 (5) FORESEEABLE FUTURE may need another run or two to reach peak fitness. 4.5/1 (4) THAKI also remains unproven on turf. Therefore, our prediction for the top three finishers would be 1.75/1 (1) WATER OF LEITH in first place, 3.5/1 (2) OUR ABSENT FRIENDS in second place, and 4.5/1 (4) THAKI in third place.

OUR ABSENT FRIENDS has been in excellent form on the all-weather and a mere 2lb rise for his most recent success at Newcastle may not be enough to stop him going in again. Stepping back up in trip looks like another plus and he can see off the capable Water Of Leith and Thaki, who performed well on his first start for new connections last month.

It's unlikely OUR ABSENT FRIENDS will have reached his limit after only 3 handicap starts and he could take a bit of stopping if proving as effective on turf. Water of Leith should find this a lot easier than the big-field Musselburgh Class 2 he ran in last time and has a good record here so he's feared most.

Topweight WATER OF LEITH has made a quiet start to this season but contests a much easier race today and is given the verdict.

1	3 1st (3) (5.5/1 +31%) Chester Tonik		5.5 5.5/1(+31%)																															(3) Chester Tonik 5.5/1, Unreliable individual. 3/1, fared no better than on reappearance when third of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 4 weeks ago. Mark continues to tumble but he's tough to put much confidence in. Still a maiden and has not proved straightforward.
2	8 2nd (8) (18/1 -125%) Fullforward		18 18/1(-125%)																															(8) Fullforward 18/1, 11/2, suited by longer trip when close fourth of 12 to Ectocross in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 62 days ago. In the mix from just 1 lb higher. Consistent in handicaps; close fourth to Ectocross on latest AW start; solid chance.
3	10 3rd (10) (11/1 -38%) Pink Lily		11 11/1(-38%)																															(10) Pink Lily 11/1, Improved a little under this claimer when third of 8 in nursery at Chelmsford City (10f, 5/1) in November, every chance until near line. Not dismissed on reappearance. Three bronze medals on AW last autumn; likely player if returning in same form.
4	5 4th (5) (5.5/1 +31%) Double Down		5.5 5.5/1(+31%)																															(5) Double Down 5.5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, run best excused when eighth of 14 in handicap (7/2) at Bath (8f, soft) 27 days ago, badly hampered over 1f out. Up in trip. Better than bare result last time; bred to stay this new trip; remains of interest.
5th	6 5th (6) (2.5/1 +38%) Gasman		2.5 2.5/1(+38%)																															(6) Gasman 2.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, last of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f), weakening when hampered final 1f. Off 101 days. First run for yard after leaving Seamus Durack (also gelded) and could have more to offer for his in-form yard. Gelded since last run and now makes debut for new yard; still unexposed.
6th	11 6th (11) (33/1 -32%) Jimmy Mark		33 33/1(-32%)																															(11) Jimmy Mark 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Never a threat when 6½ lengths sixth of 10 to Fullforward on nursery debut at Leicester (8.2f, good, 14/1). Off 6 months. Up in trip. Holds weak claims on 2yo form and is a doubtful stayer upped in trip.
7th	9 7th (9) (8/1 -14%) Think Champagne		8 8/1(-14%)																															(9) Think Champagne 8/1, Got back on track when fourth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 10/3) 26 days ago, albeit off the bridle a long way out. Not taken lightly back on turf. Peak AW effort (split subsequent winners) gives him a fighting chance.
8th	4 8th (4) (3.5/1 +13%) Ectocross		3.5 3.5/1(+13%)																															(4) Ectocross 3.5/1, Little impact in a trio of novice events for Jim Boyle but left those efforts well behind upped in trip on handicap bow when narrow winner at Lingfield on return last month, doing well to come from last. Creditable third in follow up bid and needs considering again. Landed a gamble on reappearance; ran creditably last time; still open to further progress.
9th	1 9th (1) (33/1 -106%) Seahrena		33 33/1(-106%)																															(1) Seahrena 33/1, Ran no sort of race when last of 6 in minor event (125/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 5 weeks ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. May improve now handicapping on turf in first-time headgear.
10th	2 10th (2) (10/1 -11%) J J Stingleton		10 10/1(-11%)																															(2) J J Stingleton 10/1, 7/1, showed improved form to narrowly get off the mark in 11-runner nursery at Kempton (8f), driven out. Off 167 days. Up in trip. Returns just 2 lb higher and not dismissed if ready to roll. Absent since 1m AW win in November; up just 2lb; could remain competitive.
11th	7 11th (7) (80/1 -142%) Quizlet		80 80/1(-142%)																															(7) Quizlet 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 4/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 63 days ago. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Fellowes. Poor effort on final run for Charlie Fellowes; sold for just 1,600gns since.
12th	14 12th (14) (66/1 +0%) Delightfully Yours		66 66/1(+0%)																															(14) Delightfully Yours 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, fared little better on handicap/all-weather debut after 7 months off when fourth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 4 weeks ago. Only a modest fourth on reappearance; more is required.

LTO Selection:

Based on the information provided, 18/1 (8) FULLFORWARD, 8/1 (9) THINK CHAMPAGNE, and 3.5/1 (4) ECTOCROSS are the most likely to finish in the top three positions. 18/1 (8) FULLFORWARD has been consistent in handicaps and performed well in a recent AW start, while 8/1 (9) THINK CHAMPAGNE also has a strong AW effort and has gotten back on track in a recent handicap. 3.5/1 (4) ECTOCROSS may also be a contender, having won a recent handicap and showing potential for further progress. However, it's important to note that horse racing can be unpredictable and unexpected outcomes are always possible.

ECTOCROSS appeared to have plenty in hand when winning at Lingfield in March, so it was perhaps slightly disappointing that he couldn't follow up at Nottingham. Simon Dow's charge retains potential, however, and with Oisin Murphy aboard for the first time, he could regain the winning thread. Pink Lily has been running well on the all-weather recently and she must be of interest back on the grass. Chester Tonik heads the remainder.

A host in with chances but GASMAN has been gelded/switched to the in-form Charlie Hills yard since last seen so he makes plenty of appeal having just a second start on the turf. The main threat may come from Ectocross, who left previous efforts well behind on return/handicap bow when scoring at Lingfield in March and he can continue his good run of form. Think Champagne and Fullforward round off the shortlist.

Preference is for ECTOCROSS, who should still have more to offer in handicaps. Double Down is second choice.

1	1 1st (1) (0.22/1 +24%) Concorde		0.22 0.22/1(+24%)																															(1) Concorde 0.22/1, Promising individual. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 2/15, career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago, storming clear. Still way ahead of the handicapper and should have little trouble defying a penalty. Won two handicaps in recent weeks and it should have been three; 18lb higher than latest.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/1 -29%) Inspirited		9 9/1(-29%)																															(3) Inspirited 9/1, 5/4 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 5-runner maiden at Brighton (7f, good). Off 7 months. Makes handicap debut. Not ruled out. Won maiden at Brighton (7f, good) last September in first cheekpieces; 1m can help.
3	5 3rd (5) (18/1 +10%) Mister Sox		18 18/1(+10%)																															(5) Mister Sox 18/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 9 in minor event at Ripon (8f, good to firm, 16/1). Off 8 months. Makes handicap debut. Needs to improve significantly. Off since August; should be open to further progress but plenty is needed.
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 +7%) Violeta		7 7/1(+7%)																															(4) Violeta 7/1, Respectable second of 8 in maiden at Newcastle (8f, 11/4) 34 days ago, finishing with running left. Stable is going well and she's not without a chance. Made the frame on six of her seven starts, including in handicaps; comparatively exposed.

LTO Selection:

Based on the information provided, 0.2/1 (1) CONCORDE seems like the strongest contender for the top 3 positions. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 0.2/1 (1) CONCORDE 2. 9/1 (4) VIOLETA 3. 8/1 (3) INSPIRITED

CONCORDE made amends for his Chelmsford second when flying away from the opposition at Pontefract in the manner of a horse well ahead of the handicapper. Despite carrying a 6lb penalty for that success, he remains 3lb well-in and George Boughey's gelding, who returns to the scene of his first victory, is expected to be a very warm order. That said, he does face some stiffer opposition in the shape of Maid In London, who got off the mark at the second attempt at Wolverhampton, and Inspirited.

CONCORDE reiterated that he's way ahead of the handicapper when storming clear at Pontefract 10 days ago and he should have no trouble going in again. Maid In London is the likeliest to capitalise if the selection fluffs his lines and Inspirited isn't completely dismissed having signed off the last campaign with an improved effort to score at Brighton.

Maid In London and Inspirited bring potential to their handicap debuts but CONCORDE can win again.

Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Redcar (10f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Others preferred. Course regular with modest strike-rate; out of form when last seen in the autumn.
2	6 2nd (6) (5.5/1 +8%) Flying Moon		5.5 5.5/1(+8%)																															(6) Flying Moon 5.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. Eighth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (heavy, 12/1), merely passing beaten rivals. Off 7 months. Likely to need the run. Triple C&D winner in 2022; out of form in the autumn but has pretty good record when fresh.

4	3 4th (3) (3.5/1 +0%) Graces Quest		3.5 3.5/1(+0%)																															(3) Graces Quest 3.5/1, Bit below form fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (13.1f, good, 8/1). Off 7 months. Consistent in the main last year and looks the more likely of the Jim Goldie-trained pair. Makes plenty of appeal. Two wins last season; resumes on a workable mark but would appeal more over further.
5th	4 5th (4) (12/1 +40%) My Macho Man		12 12/1(+40%)																															(4) My Macho Man 12/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. Blinkered for 1st time, shaped as if still in form when fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Perth (16.2f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time on the Flat. Can't be ruled out. Placed off lowly hurdle mark in March but looks opposable on first Flat start since 2020.
6th	1 6th (1) (6.5/1 +28%) Kalahari Prince		6.5 6.5/1(+28%)																															(1) Kalahari Prince 6.5/1, 11/1, last of 11 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Not easy to make a case for. Three poor runs since win in October, the last two for new stable last month; new headgear.
7th	5 7th (5) (5/1 +17%) Golden Valour		5 5/1(+17%)																															(5) Golden Valour 5/1, Temperamental sort. Twenty runs since last win in 2020. 11/2, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f). Off 6 months. Respected. Signed off with fairly good AW run in October but hasn't won since 2020; others preferred.
8th	7 8th (7) (16/1 -88%) Lochnaver		16 16/1(-88%)																															(7) Lochnaver 16/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Newcastle (12.4f), doing too much too soon. Off 6 months. Not discounted for all that she might strip fitter for the run. Twice maiden all at Hamilton last year (1m3f/1m4f); may find 1m2f here inadequate.

Based on the summary, the horse that seems most likely to do well and finish in the top three is 3.33/1 (3) GRACES QUEST. It had two wins last season and is consistent in the main. The other two horses that could potentially finish in the top three are 5.5/1 (6) FLYING MOON, who has a good record when fresh and has won at this C&D three times before, and 4/1 (2) BERRY EDGE, who is down in grade and has placed four times on turf last year. Therefore, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 3.33/1 (3) GRACES QUEST 2. 5.5/1 (6) FLYING MOON 3. 4/1 (2) BERRY EDGE

Kalahari Prince hasn't shown much in two starts this season, but that may all change with the application of a first-time visor potentially making a difference. Graces Quest was a consistent performer last season and she has to be of interest, despite dropping in trip. The vote, though, goes to BERRY EDGE. He was knocking on the door on several occasions in 2022 and this may be the time to catch him as he returns from a break.

GRACES QUEST wasn't at her best when last seen 7 months ago but she had a positive 2022 overall and could get back on track on seasonal debut. Berry Edge is a danger dropping back in grade and My Macho Man is worthy of interest returning to this sphere after a spell over hurdles.

1	9 1st (9) (18/1 -50%) Eagle Court		18 18/1(-50%)																															(9) Eagle Court 18/1, Good second of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 24 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up again nudged up 1 lb. Close last time; probably back to 2021 for the form needed to take care of today's rivals.
2	1 2nd (1) (2.5/1 +25%) Vega Sicilia		2.5 2.5/1(+25%)																															(1) Vega Sicilia 2.5/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in December. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap (3/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 27 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Can bounce back. Big player of he transfers his recent AW form, having taken a minor honour on soft as 2yo.
3	10 3rd (10) (9/1 +36%) Al Azhar		9 9/1(+36%)																															(10) Al Azhar 9/1, 17/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, heavy) 23 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. More is needed. Wore cheekpieces last three outings and now has blinkers; well handicapped if back to form.
4	8 4th (8) (18/1 +28%) V Twelve		18 18/1(+28%)																															(8) V Twelve 18/1, Winner at Windsor in October. 16/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, soft) 27 days ago. Others more persuasive. 1m2f win (soft) in October in his second handicap; no show when back to Flat (11.6f, soft).
5th	2 5th (2) (5/1 -50%) Lady Labelle		5 5/1(-50%)																															(2) Lady Labelle 5/1, Lightly-raced winner. 7/4, third of 4 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good), unsuited by way race developed. Off 10 months but can't be discounted. Absent since last June and needs better but she's lightly raced and needs a check.
6th	3 6th (3) (3/1 +25%) Kensington		3 3/1(+25%)																															(3) Kensington 3/1, Daughter of Frankel who easily won 10-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f). Off 6 months but remains open to progress on her handicap debut. Interesting. 321 on AW last year under Collen Storey; potential on seasonal, turf and handicap debut.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/1 +25%) Reina Del Mar		9 9/1(+25%)																															(5) Reina Del Mar 9/1, 5/1, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to soft), never nearer. Off 19 months so has her fitness to prove. Absent since some creditable runs in 2021; well handicapped if she returns at her best.
8th	11 8th (11) (22/1 -10%) On The Right Track		22 22/1(-10%)																															(11) On The Right Track 22/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 15/2) 37 days ago, cosily. Form been franked so he can make presence felt. Won reappearance (AW); chief concern that well beaten in his 3 runs on softer than good.
9th	7 9th (7) (9/1 +25%) Later Darling		9 9/1(+25%)																															(7) Later Darling 9/1, Winner at Kempton in February. 2/1, fading fourth of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f) 28 days ago so needs considering back in trip. Fit from AW; has a lower mark than during his 2022 turf campaign, so a case can be made.

Based on the summary, the top three horses predicted to finish in the race are: 1st - 25/1 (11) ON THE RIGHT TRACK 2nd - 20/1 (9) EAGLE COURT 3rd - 2.5/1 (3) KENSINGTON

LADY LABELLE had some smart form in the book last year, perhaps most notably when finishing within three lengths of subsequent Group 2 scorer Al Qareem at York in May. She's in good hands to make further progress and The Gurkha filly ought to prove better than a mark of 78. Kensington struck at Wolverhampton in October and she appeals as a likely contender on her turf/handicap bow, while top-weight Vega Sicilia is another to note.

Frankel filly KENSINGTON appeals as the sort to do well in handicaps this season so is taken to follow up her easy Wolverhampton novice success and make light of her absence. On The Right Track rates a big danger though on the back of his Wolverhampton success, with both Eagle Court and Vega Sicilia capable of having a say too in a competitive handicap.

The well-bred 4yo KENSINGTON, representing the Gosdens, has had just just three races and must be of major interest.

1	7 1st (7) (1.5/1 +73%) Rajmeister		1.5 1.5/1(+73%)																															(7) Rajmeister 1.5/1, Winner at Nottingham in April. 4/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Leicester (6f, heavy) 5 days ago, very slowly away. Likely to be back on his game if he breaks on terms. Won at Nottingham and best forgiven subsequent Leicester effort when very slowly away.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 -33%) Dapper Man		4 4/1(-33%)																															(6) Dapper Man 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. Creditable second of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago, well positioned. Another bold showing on the cards. Won at Southwell and good Catterick 2nd since; this C&D winner is firmly in the picture.
3	9 3rd (9) (14/1 +13%) Gullane One		14 14/1(+13%)																															(9) Gullane One 14/1, 25/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, soft) 30 days ago. Others make more appeal. Ended 2022 below par and beat only one on his return at Thirsk; lots more is required.
4	5 4th (5) (7.5/1 -7%) Yazaman		7.5 7.5/1(-7%)																															(5) Yazaman 7.5/1, Temperamental sort. One win from 29 Flat runs. 18/1, first run since leaving Kevin Ryan when seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 34 days ago. Has dropped a long way in the weights and might build on his return. Encouraging start for new yard with Newcastle 7th; interesting off a much-reduced mark.
5th	1 5th (1) (6.5/1 -63%) Mews House		6.5 6.5/1(-63%)																															(1) Mews House 6.5/1, Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 3/1) 8 days ago. Likely to be on the premises again. Engaged 1.40 Pontefract Wednesday. Close up this year on the AW prior to his good second at Pontefract on Wednesday.
6th	3 6th (3) (6.5/1 +35%) Show Compassion		6.5 6.5/1(+35%)																															(3) Show Compassion 6.5/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, good to soft, 12/1) 10 days ago. Can't be discounted. Back on track when 4th at Pontefract; not dismissed in her bid for a breakthrough success.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 -11%) Primo		10 10/1(-11%)																															(8) Primo 10/1, 16/1, bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, soft) 30 days ago. Not firing at present. A three-time scorer in 2022 but he arrives below par; he needs to take a step forward.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, 4/1 (6) DAPPER MAN seems to be the strongest contender with a recent win and a good showing at Catterick. 4.5/1 (1) MEWS HOUSE also has a good recent performance and could possibly finish in second place. 7.5/1 (3) SHOW COMPASSION may also have a chance to finish in the top three. 2.25/1 (7) RAJMEISTER and 9/1 (5) YAZAMAN have some potential, but their recent performances have not been as strong. 10/1 (9) GULLANE ONE and 8/1 (8) PRIMO seem less likely to perform well in this race. Therefore, the prediction for the top three finishers is: 1. 4/1 (6) DAPPER MAN 2. 4.5/1 (1) MEWS HOUSE 3. 7.5/1 (3) SHOW COMPASSION

DAPPER MAN followed up his win at Southwell in March with a close second at Catterick last time and that form gives the veteran a big chance in a race of this nature. Rajmeister failed to fire on his most recent outing but is a player based on his previous victory, while Impressor and Show Compassion are others who could go well.

DAPPER MAN has looked revitalised of late and, having just been touched off at Catterick last week, he's worth a chance to resume winning ways. Impressor, who scored here on his penultimate outing, looks a big danger and Mews House warrants consideration.

It is worth siding with YAZAMAN to build on an encouraging debut for Paul Midgley and capitalise on a much-reduced mark

1	1 1st (1) (2.5/1 +17%) Judgment Call		2.5 2.5/1(+17%)																															(1) Judgment Call 2.5/1, C&D winner who posted respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at Musselburgh (8f, good to soft) on return 26 days ago. Entitled to build on that. Dual 7f winner last summer (once here) and ran well over 1m on last month's reappearance.
2	5 2nd (5) (5.5/1 +21%) Novak		5.5 5.5/1(+21%)																															(5) Novak 5.5/1, Finished runner-up in a couple of 7.1f handicaps at Newcastle the last twice and remains fairly treated on return to turf. Enters calculations. Second on consecutive 7f AW starts in March and should be fine back on turf.
3	2 3rd (2) (4.5/1 -13%) Classy Al		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(2) Classy Al 4.5/1, Scored 3 times at this course, latest over this trip in September, and improved on that when good second of 11 in handicap here (6f) when last seen 7 months ago. Back up in trip. Not taken lightly on return. Won three times here last season (6f-7f); returns from absence on career-high mark.
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 +27%) Lilikoi		4 4/1(+27%)																															(3) Lilikoi 4/1, Returned to winning ways at Newcastle (7.1f) in January and made the frame all 3 starts since, latest when fourth of 11 in handicap (5/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 51 days ago, nearest finish. Warrants respect. In good form on AW and was placed twice under Gianluca Sanna on turf last year; a player.
5th	7 5th (7) (6.5/1 +13%) Merricourt		6.5 6.5/1(+13%)																															(7) Merricourt 6.5/1, C&D winner. 100/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 21 days ago, not knocked about. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Something to find on form. Well beaten on both AW starts this year but won this race off 2lb higher 12 months ago.
6th	4 6th (4) (11/1 -83%) Rogue Force		11 11/1(-83%)																															(4) Rogue Force 11/1, Three-time winner (at up to 8f) on AW for Tom Clover and posted respectable fourth on final start for yard at Kempton (7f) in March. Nicely treated on debut for new stable and is an interesting contender. Hood back on. Bought for 9,000gns after respectable AW run in March; given a chance by the handicapper.
7th	8 7th (8) (10/1 -11%) Global Humor		10 10/1(-11%)																															(8) Global Humor 10/1, Unreliable sort. C&D winner. 50/1, fourteenth of 16 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, soft) 26 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Failed to win last year but is on a good mark and might have needed last month's run.

1st: 4.5/1 (3) LILIKOI 2nd: 3.33/1 (1) JUDGMENT CALL 3rd: 5.5/1 (5) NOVAK

All three of CLASSY AL's career wins have come at this track and this looks like another ideal opportunity returning from a 210-day break. Conditions look to be in his favour and he is narrowly preferred to the consistent Novak and Judgment Call, who ran a fine race on his return at Musselburgh last month and he is entitled to improve for that reappearance.

ROGUE FORCE acquitted himself well at Kempton last time and figures off a handy mark on debut for new connections here. He gets the nod. Classy Al and Novak rate the principal dangers.

The suggestion is LILIKOI, won began the year in good form on the AW and has a capable 7lb claimer enlisted for her turf return.

1	2 1st (2) (4.5/1 +47%) Tigerten		4.5 4.5/1(+47%)																															(2) Tigerten 4.5/1, Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, soft, 22/1) 45 days ago. Fair on the Flat, so needs considering back in this sphere. It's hard to know when he will click again but he needs a market check.
2	5 2nd (5) (1.2/1 +40%) Monjules		1.2 1.2/1(+40%)																															(5) Monjules 1.2/1, Fair winner at 18f over hurdles and posted a good second at Fontwell (17.7f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Interesting back on the level on his handicap debut. 3-5 over hurdles since joining Harry Fry; interesting back on Flat.
3	6 3rd (6) (3.5/1 -5%) Easter Icon		3.5 3.5/1(-5%)																															(6) Easter Icon 3.5/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (15/8) at Southwell (16.5f) 16 days ago, well positioned. Well in the mix. Beaten about 15l on good in all of his three runs on turf; off the mark on AW 16 days ago.
4	1 4th (1) (7.5/1 -114%) Got Bright		7.5 7.5/1(-114%)																															(1) Got Bright 7.5/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. 13/2, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 20 days ago. Still needs a couple of these to falter. Wind surgery last November and not far away on most starts since (2m/1m6f); e-w chance.

Tongue strap on for 1st time on the Flat (cheekpieces also back on) and shortlisted. Inconsistent on Flat but went close off this mark last August (2m).
6th	9 6th (9) (28/1 -40%) Zyra's Lioness		28 28/1(-40%)																															(9) Zyra's Lioness 28/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Plumpton (17.8f, good to soft) 66 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Poor on the Flat, so others appeal more. Recorded the odd minor honour but without suggesting that a first win is that likely today.
7th	10 7th (10) (66/1 -32%) Guilty Party		66 66/1(-32%)																															(10) Guilty Party 66/1, Eleventh of 13 in handicap (66/1) at Kempton (16f). Off 7 months. Something to find on form. Stays 2m and has some ability, but seemingly not enough to play a leading role today.
8th	7 8th (7) (66/1 -164%) Global Agreement		66 66/1(-164%)																															(7) Global Agreement 66/1, Unreliable individual. Tongue strap on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Hexham (20.1f, soft, 33/1) 10 days ago. Up in trip. Others more persuasive. Runner-up over hurdles in January but out of form in his five starts since; 0-12 on Flat.

First run since leaving Chris Down when last of 13 in handicap (50/1) at Bath (14f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Lots more is needed. Closest in October 2021; off 539 days before last of 13 at Bath (1m6f) 13 days ago.

Unreliable type. Turf win was 2020 and he's run only twice on turf since, well beaten; AW win in February.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, the horse that is most likely to do well and finish in 1st place is 3.5/1 (6) EASTER ICON, who has recently won on AW and had a career-best win in a handicap race. The horse that is likely to finish in 2nd place is 1.25/1 (5) MONJULES, who has had recent success in hurdle races and is interesting to watch in his handicap debut on the flat. The horse that will finish in 3rd place is 6.5/1 (1) GOT BRIGHT, who has been consistent and has a chance to place if a couple of the other horses falter.

Now that the penny has dropped for EASTER ICON after a determined success at Southwell just over a fortnight ago, there should be more to come from the son of Sixties Icon off a 2lb higher mark. Monjules has been in excellent form over hurdles and must be of interest on this switch to the level, while the booking of Oisin Murphy for Got Bright catches the eye.

Harry Fry's MONJULES arrives in top form over hurdles so is fancied to capitalise on a handy-looking mark back on the level (unraced on it since 2021 in France) and gain a breakthrough success in this sphere. Easter Icon is feared most on the back of his recent Southwell success, with Arthalot another to consider for place purposes.

A fair hurdler for his new yard, MONJULES (nap) may well have the perfect opportunity on this first Flat run since 2021.

1	1 1st (1) (1.5/1 +40%) Totnes		1.5 1.5/1(+40%)																															(1) Totnes 1.5/1, Thrice-raced winner. Winner at Wolverhampton in March. 5/6, didn't enjoy a clear run when fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 29 days ago so she's worth another chance off a still handy-looking mark. Picked up nicely in 7f novice; not clear run on handicap debut; back at 1m; new surface.
2	4 2nd (4) (8/1 -60%) Ashmore		8 8/1(-60%)																															(4) Ashmore 8/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in maiden (100/1) at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago, left with lot to do. Makes handicap debut and shouldn't be underestimated. Low-key form as 2yo; late headway when upped to 1m last month; more to come in handicaps.

Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap debut with bit more needed. Promising 2yo form at 7f and 1m; slightly deflating return; might pay to forgive him that.

5th	8 5th (8) (12/1 -33%) Mysterious Maestro		12 12/1(-33%)																															(8) Mysterious Maestro 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 7 in maiden (33/1) at Goodwood (8f, good to soft).

Prediction: 1st: 2.25/1 (1) TOTNES 2nd: 8.5/1 (5) BUTTERFLY EFFECT 3rd: 9/1 (6) CLIMATE PRECEDENT

Totnes was a disappointing favourite on her first start in a handicap when fifth at Wolverhampton, but she is likely to have more to come stepping up to a mile. However, she could come out second best to CLIMATE PRECEDENT, who was well clear of the third when filling the runner-up spot at the same venue over this trip on his latest start. The son of Ulysses was raised 4lb for that effort but that might not be enough to prevent him from going one better. Phenomenon makes his handicap debut and merits consideration.

TOTNES looked a filly on the up until only fifth at Wolverhampton last time but she didn't enjoy the rub of the green there and can bounce back in style off a still handy-looking mark. Wolverhampton-second Climate Precedent can pose the chief threat to Andrew Balding's filly ahead of Butterfly Effect, who could also have a say if first-time blinkers have the desired effect.

Things didn't work out for CLIMATE PRECEDENT when returned to a similar trip to today's in April but he looks capable of better yet.

1	1 1st (1) (0.91/1 +9%) Smile And Pay		0.91 0.91/1(+9%)																															(1) Smile And Pay 0.91/1, Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Catterick (7f, soft, 2/1) 8 days ago, going clear. Carries penalty. Will take the beating. 11l winner at Catterick eight days ago; the one to beat under a 6lb penalty.
2	3 2nd (3) (2.5/1 +29%) War Chant		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(3) War Chant 2.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. 3/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, heavy) 19 days ago, running on. Not discounted. Not disgraced on return with Yarmouth 5th; he's shortlisted off an unchanged mark.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/1 -33%) Angel Of Peace		10 10/1(-33%)																															(2) Angel Of Peace 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, sixth of 9 in maiden at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago. Might well take another step forward now handicapping, so she's one to be interested in. Good Kempton 6th latest; she's no forlorn hope now handicapping.
4	10 4th (10) (33/1 -65%) Navy Wren		33 33/1(-65%)																															(10) Navy Wren 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 80/1, twelfth of 14 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to soft). Off 7 months. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Bred to do better. Showed little worthwhile form in her three outings as a juvenile; hard to make a case for.
5th	4 5th (4) (40/1 +20%) Heart Of Acklam		40 40/1(+20%)																															(4) Heart Of Acklam 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 66/1, last of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Hard to make a case for. Last of seven in 1m Pontefract handicap 10 days ago; cheekpieces on now with lots to find.
6th	9 6th (9) (50/1 +0%) Lady Loveless		50 50/1(+0%)																															(9) Lady Loveless 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 12 in handicap (80/1) at this course (6f, heavy) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others are more persuasive. Looks only a poor maiden on balance so she needs to take a big step forward here.
7th	5 7th (5) (5/1 -25%) Camacho Star		5 5/1(-25%)																															(5) Camacho Star 5/1, C&D winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner here in April. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (16/1) at Pontefract (8f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Should be thereabouts once again. C&D winner before very good Pontefract second (1m) ten days ago; he holds solid claims.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -264%) Wolf Of Kingstreet		80 80/1(-264%)																															(6) Wolf Of Kingstreet 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Hugo Palmer when last of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 37 days ago. Makes turf debut. Blinkers on 1st time. Last on yard debut at Wolverhampton 37 days ago; blinkers go on for his turf debut.
9th	8 9th (8) (40/1 +0%) City Centre		40 40/1(+0%)																															(8) City Centre 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, last of 12 in nursery at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm). Off 9 months. Makes little appeal. Failed to offer much in four runs as a juvenile last summer; others are much preferred.

1st: 1.38/1 (1) SMILE AND PAY 2nd: 4.5/1 (5) CAMACHO STAR 3rd: 6.5/1 (2) ANGEL OF PEACE

SMILE AND PAY was an 11-length winner over 7f at Catterick last week and is hard to oppose given that his 6lb penalty still leaves him 6lb well in here. Camacho Star has been running well so far this season and should not be underestimated. War Chant is entitled to improve for his encouraging recent return, while Angel Of Peace is another to note.

Having scored with plenty in hand at Catterick 8 days ago, SMILE AND PAY seems the obvious choice under a penalty. Angel of Peace is a notable handicap debutante and the in-form Camacho Star could be dangerous if he gets his own way in front.

It's hard to side against SMILE AND PAY who is weighted to follow up his wide-margin Catterick success turned out under a 6lb penalty.

Switches from bumpers to hurdles. Unseated on her debut, tailed off at Gowran, last of 11 in a Clonmel bumper.
1	9 1st (9) (0.57/1 +59%) Birdie Or Bust		0.57 0.57/1(+59%)																															(9) Birdie Or Bust 0.57/1, Promising individual. 8/1, second of 16 in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, heavy) 99 days ago, keeping on. Sound claims with prospect of more to come. Has chased home a Willie Mullins-trained odds-on shot on both starts, may go one better.
2	7 2nd (7) (5/1 -25%) Something Abouther		5 5/1(-25%)																															(7) Something Abouther 5/1, Bumper winner who showed improved form on second start back from a lengthy absence when good third of 14 in novice hurdle at Naas (16.3f, soft) 35 days ago. A repeat should see her in the shake up again. Limerick bumper winner in 2021, two creditable displays over hurdles after a long absence.
3	8 3rd (8) (16/1 -78%) Baby Chou		16 16/1(-78%)																															(8) Baby Chou 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Third of 14 in novice hurdle (8/1) at Tramore (16f, soft) on hurdles bow 18 days ago. Feasible to think she can build on that here. Ordinary form in bumpers, took a step in the right direction on hurdling debut at Tramore.
4	14 4th (14) (12/1 +40%) I Sea The Moon		12 12/1(+40%)																															(14) I Sea The Moon 12/1, Modest hurdler. Remains a maiden after 11 hurdle runs. Respectable fifth of 14 in novice hurdle (6/4) at Tramore (16f, soft) 18 days ago, not ideally placed. Visor on 1st time. Showed potential for handicap success during 2021, needs to step up on recent maiden form.
5th	2 5th (2) (6/1 -33%) Cash The Cheque		6 6/1(-33%)																															(2) Cash The Cheque 6/1, Fair hurdler. 15/8, creditable third of 14 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, good to soft) 61 days ago. No surprise to see her thereabouts again. Consistent in bumpers on good ground last summer, has shown potential for hurdle success.
6th	13 6th (13) (250/1 -150%) Goodie Girl		250 250/1(-150%)																															(13) Goodie Girl 250/1, Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in novice hurdle (80/1) at Kilbeggan (15f, good to soft) on NH debut 14 days ago. Probably one for later on. Never involved on debut at Kilbeggan a fortnight ago, will need to pick up more experience.
7th	15 7th (15) (250/1 -67%) Image Du Large		250 250/1(-67%)																															(15) Image Du Large 250/1, Some promise only chase start in France but well held all 3 starts over hurdles for present stable. French form was not without merit, jumping has been ragged on three Irish starts.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 +0%) Brianna Lily		16 16/1(+0%)																															(1) Brianna Lily 16/1, Fairly useful winner at 2m in bumpers. 33¼ lengths last of 9 to Tiger Bay Queen in listed bumper at Fairyhouse (16.4f, soft, 7/1) 26 days ago. Makes hurdles debut and she's one to monitor closely in the betting now attentions switch to timber. Lacks hurdling experience but should be competitive if reproducing her best bumper form.
9th	4 9th (4) (150/1 -275%) Gonetomillgrove		150 150/1(-275%)																															(4) Gonetomillgrove 150/1, Fair winner at 12f on Flat. Minor promise on first of 2 starts over hurdles upon joining present yard earlier this year but below best back on the level at Navan recently. Flat winner for Jack Davison last autumn, unplaced in two hurdles starts for this stable.
10th	20 10th (20) (300/1 -100%) Unklipped		300 300/1(-100%)																															(20) Unklipped 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. 250/1, fourteenth of 18 in novice hurdle at Clonmel (18.7f, soft) 63 days ago. Towards the back in maidens at Down Royal and Clonmel, can be safely ruled out.
11th	3 11th (3) (66/1 -230%) Fizzle Rock		66 66/1(-230%)																															(3) Fizzle Rock 66/1, Fair winner at 2m in bumpers. Fourth of 8 in bumper at Perth (16.2f, good to soft, 2/1). Off 21 months. Makes hurdles debut. Hooded for 1st time. Made a winning debut in a Down Royal bumper in June 2021, off since the following month.
12th	11 12th (11) (22/1 +45%) C'est Rien		22 22/1(+45%)																															(11) C'est Rien 22/1, Modest hurdler. 200/1, well-beaten last of 5 to Impaire Et Passe in Moscow Flyer Novices' Hurdle at Punchestown (16f, heavy) 109 days ago. This understandably more suitable but she's another who will be seen in a better light tackling handicaps in this sphere. Completely out of her depth in a Grade 2 event in January, fair third here last October.
13th	6 13th (6) (66/1 -230%) Lodilomoco		66 66/1(-230%)																															(6) Lodilomoco 66/1, Fair winner at 17f in bumpers. 33/1, tailed-off last of 11 to Troubled Times in listed bumper at Gowran (16f, soft). Off 7 months. Makes hurdles debut. Won a mares' bumper at Wexford last August, later struggled in a Listed bumper at Gowran.
14th	19 14th (19) (250/1 -279%) Sweet Bonnie		250 250/1(-279%)																															(19) Sweet Bonnie 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 125/1, eleventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, good to soft) 61 days ago. Struggled on debut at Clonmel, hampered a couple of times at Navan but showed very little.
15th	17 15th (17) (250/1 -150%) Janverlil		250 250/1(-150%)																															(17) Janverlil 250/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 80/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Thurles (21f, heavy) 52 days ago, pulled up before 2 out. Back down in trip. Big price when pulled-up in a 2m5f maiden at Tramore, form at 2m has been moderate.
16th	16 16th (16) (50/1 -52%) In A Nice Way		50 50/1(-52%)																															(16) In A Nice Way 50/1, Modest hurdler. Thirteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (23f, good to soft, 16/1). Off 6 months. Passed over stepping back up significantly in trip. Best run last season when third in a maiden at Cork, handicap efforts have been ordinary.
17th	12 17th (12) (250/1 -658%) Emotional Damage		250 250/1(-658%)																															(12) Emotional Damage 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 25/1, seventh of 13 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (17.4f, soft) 20 days ago, making no impression. Represents leading stable but she's a likely type for handicaps in due course. Has looked in need of further than this in her first two races, perhaps one for handicaps.
18th	18 18th (18) (250/1 -150%) Red Sole Diva		250 250/1(-150%)																															(18) Red Sole Diva 250/1, Minor promise on first of 2 starts over hurdles for W. McCreery during early 2021 but proved regressive on the Flat subsequently and best watched starting out for another new yard here following 11 months off. Lost form on Flat after showing ability for Joseph O'Brien, had two hurdle runs in 2021.
5	5 |PU| (5) (12/1 +45%) Hi Stranger		12 12/1(+45%)																															(5) Hi Stranger 12/1, Fairly useful dual bumper winner during summer 2021. Offered little back on Flat (following 7 months off) when thirteenth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at Navan (13f, heavy) 36 days ago and market best guide now hurdling. Dual bumper winner on good ground two summers ago, out of form on last three Flat runs.

LTO Selection:

---

1st: 0.67/1 (9) BIRDIE OR BUST 2nd: 4.5/1 (2) CASH THE CHEQUE 3rd: 16/1 (8) BABY CHOU

BIRDIE OR BUST made a pleasing start at Tramore on New Years Day when beating all bar the well-regarded Quais De Paris and again filled the runner-up spot later that month behind another Willie Mullins-trained odds-on shot at Fairyhouse. The selection had subsequent winner Firm Footings 20 lengths back in third and should be suited by this better ground. Something Abouther won a bumper at Limerick last November and the lightly raced seven-year-old comes here off two placed efforts in mares maiden hurdles including when prominent throughout in the Naas event won by Troubled Times. Cash The Cheque has a similar profile while Baby Chou and I Sea The Moon are others to consider.

BIRDIE OR BUST shaped with promise when twice filling the runners-up spot in maiden hurdles earlier this year and, with potential for better still moving forward, she very much looks the one to side with. Cash The Cheque and Something Abouther head up the dangers, with Baby Chou also worth keeping an eye on.

Henry de Bromhead's BIRDIE OR BUST (nap), second to a Willie Mullins-trained odds-on shot in both her races, has less on her plate now

1	4 1st (4) (9/1 +10%) Fred Bear		9 9/1(+10%)																															(4) Fred Bear 9/1, First run since leaving Sheena West when twelfth of 13 in handicap (10/1) at Bath (14f, good to soft) 13 days ago, folding. Needs a big step forward. Two 1m6f turf wins (one on good to soft) last year; may have needed first run for new yard.
2	5 2nd (5) (4/1 +11%) John Betjeman		4 4/1(+11%)																															(5) John Betjeman 4/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. 10/3, creditable third of 13 in handicap at Bath (14f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Still needs a couple of these to falter. Running well over hurdles before third of 13 on Flat at Bath (1m6f); 0-22 on Flat.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 -50%) Where's Tom		12 12/1(-50%)																															(2) Where's Tom 12/1, Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap (13/2) at Kempton (12f) 22 days ago. Eighteen runs since last win in 2020, however. AW form this winter/spring gives him a big shout if stamina can be stretched a bit further.
4	6 4th (6) (9/1 +36%) Fighting Poet		9 9/1(+36%)																															(6) Fighting Poet 9/1, 7/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f) 16 days ago, not ideally placed. Not discounted off an easing mark. 11-race maiden; turf form (three attempts) is less solid than AW but he's not dismissed.
5th	8 5th (8) (2.5/1 +25%) Sugar Candie		2.5 2.5/1(+25%)																															(8) Sugar Candie 2.5/1, Had looked on the up but off 6 months before coming in twelfth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 157 days ago. Still low mileage and she's well worth another chance with Oisin Murphy now in the saddle. Lightly raced (best effort on good to soft) and worth another attempt at this sort of trip.
5th	7 5th (7) (6.5/1 -30%) Big Jimbo		6.5 6.5/1(-30%)																															(7) Big Jimbo 6.5/1, Winner at Kempton in February. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (15/2) at Plumpton (17.8f, soft) 24 days ago so needs to get back on track. Very solid sequence on AW early this year, before pulled up on soft back over hurdles.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/1 -56%) Winklevi		7 7/1(-56%)																															(1) Winklevi 7/1, Creditable second of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (14f, 2/1) 28 days ago, no match for winner. Visor back on. Can give a good account. Down the weights as result of 2022 turf campaign but much more competitive on AW this year.
8th	9 8th (9) (20/1 -67%) Pledge Of Peace		20 20/1(-67%)																															(9) Pledge Of Peace 20/1, Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs but he posted a creditable fourth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (13.3f, 10/1) 28 days ago. Not ruled out despite being 1 lb out of the handicap. 0-24; major place chance on recent AW efforts but has had only one turf run, tailed off.
9th	3 9th (3) (12/1 +14%) Jersey Gift		12 12/1(+14%)																															(3) Jersey Gift 12/1, 16/1, eleventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 22 days ago. Makes turf debut. Looks competitive on form if shrugging off latest effort. No impact in four runs since returning this year from a long absence; makes his turf debut.
10th	10 10th (10) (40/1 -43%) Proud Warrior		40 40/1(-43%)																															(10) Proud Warrior 40/1, Respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 18/1) 34 days ago. Not totally dismissed. 0-9; well beaten at Southwell latest and this is his first turf run since behind on debut.

LTO Selection:

Based on the summary, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, some horses to consider for a potential top three finish could be 8.5/1 (4) FRED BEAR, 8.5/1 (1) WINKLEVI, and 4/1 (8) SUGAR CANDIE, who have shown some promise in previous races.

This can go the way of JOHN BETJEMAN, who ran a cracker on his return to the level when not beaten far in third at Bath last month. Mark Gilliard's charge may be winless in 22 starts in this sphere but this looks like as good an opportunity as any. Big Jimbo has been in fine form on the all-weather of late and can give him the most to think about, while Where's Tom and Winklevi are others to consider.

A case can be made for lots of these so at the likely odds it is worth siding with SUGAR CANDIE, who had looked on the up until finishng well held at Wolverhampton after an absence and can bounce back in style with Oisin Murphy now up. Fighting Poet didn't enjoy the rub of the green when sixth at Southwell last time and could emerge as the chief threat, with Chelmsford-second Winklevi another who needs considering in a very open handicap.

She flopped when tried over 1m6f last November but SUGAR CANDIE has to be well worth another go at the trip.

1	2 1st (2) (7/1 +65%) Enough Already		7 7/1(+65%)																															(2) Enough Already 7/1, Course winner. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 12/1) 48 days ago, ridden over 2f out and always behind. Needs to step up again if he's to figure for all his mark is easing. Sole AW win at 1m2f in 2021; getting well treated but struggled a bit for new yard in 2023.
2	4 2nd (4) (4.5/1 -50%) Covert Mission		4.5 4.5/1(-50%)																															(4) Covert Mission 4.5/1, Successful 4 times last year and having been placed in pair of 1m Southwell handicaps earlier this year, he duly resumed winning ways in 7-runner C&D handicap 31 days ago, making all. Had plenty in his favour then but he's a consistent type and ought to go well again. Continued good run of form when making all over C&D latest; up 3lb; solid claims.
3	3 3rd (3) (2.5/1 -11%) Lafan		2.5 2.5/1(-11%)																															(3) Lafan 2.5/1, Better signs when third on yard debut here (10f) in February and justified good support when ending losing run in 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 23 days ago, in command 1f out and keeping on. Remains with handicapping scope on old form and he's respected again. Easy winner on 2nd start for new yard; still well treated despite going back up 8lb.
4	5 4th (5) (7.5/1 +17%) Meng Tian		7.5 7.5/1(+17%)																															(5) Meng Tian 7.5/1, Seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 14/1) 38 days ago, in rear and never on terms. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Handicap win came over 7f on Tapeta; not yet convinced with stamina for 1m.
5th	6 5th (6) (7/1 -40%) Hul Ah Bah Loo		7 7/1(-40%)																															(6) Hul Ah Bah Loo 7/1, Shed maiden tag over C&D in February. Remained in form since, creditable length third of 7 to Covert Mission in handicap at this C&D (AW, 9/4) 31 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Shortlist material. Reliable over 7f and 1m here; close between him and Covert Mission on latest C&D form.
6th	1 6th (1) (25/1 -79%) Boafo Boy		25 25/1(-79%)																															(1) Boafo Boy 25/1, Latest win at Newcastle (7f) in January. Last of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Chelmsford (7f) 63 days ago, slowly into stride and always behind. Needs to bounce back returned to 1m. Acts on both AW surfaces but win came on Tapeta (7f) and vulnerable on Polytrack of late.
7th	7 7th (7) (2.75/1 +39%) Havana Goldrush		2.75 2.75/1(+39%)																															(7) Havana Goldrush 2.75/1, Latest win at Bath (1m) in April. Creditable second of 12 in handicap back at that venue (1m) 3 days ago, albeit not looking straightforward in the finish. This tougher but he's clearly in good heart. In fine form at 1m on Tapeta and turf, winning at Bath in April and close 2nd on Monday.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 3.5/1 (4) COVERT MISSION 2. 3/1 (7) HAVANA GOLDRUSH 3. 8/1 (6) HUL AH BAH LOO

LAFAN scored impressively at Wolverhampton last time over an extended 1m1f and, even though he has been put up 8lb for that success, he could still be feasibly treated. A fellow last-time-out winner Covert Mission warrants plenty of respect, as he recorded that victory over C&D and should remain competitive off 3lb higher. Havana Goldrush could have a say if transferring his recent turf form to the all-weather.

HUL AH BAH LOO ran another solid race and likely would have been suited by a stronger gallop when third behind Covert Mission over C&D recently and he could be worth chancing to come out on top on this occasion. Lafan, who justified good support to score at Wolverhampton recently, is also firmly in the mix.

Covert Mission is respected but it's easy to prefer LAFAN (nap) who is still well treated despite a wide-margin Wolverhampton win.

Dam 7f-8.3f winner. 7/2, won 7-runner maiden at this C&D on debut 14 days ago, kept up to work. Likely to improve. Promising debut when scoring over C&D; no surprise if he follows up under a penalty..
3	6 3rd (6) (5.5/1 +54%) Terwada		5.5 5.5/1(+54%)																															(6) Terwada 5.5/1, Tamayuz colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful 9f/1¼m winner Taqareer and 1m-1½m winner Mujid. Dam 7f/1m (Irish 1000 Guineas) winner who would have stayed 1¼m. Seventh foal; half-brother to three winners; dam 7f-1m winner; needs a market check..
4	4 4th (4) (16/1 -78%) Raven's Applause		16 16/1(-78%)																															(4) Raven's Applause 16/1, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 10 in maiden at this course (6f, 14/1) 7 days ago. Close third here (6f) latest; half-brother to a 1m dirt winner; could improve again..
5th	3 5th (3) (20/1 -264%) Flame Spirit		20 20/1(-264%)																															(3) Flame Spirit 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good 1½ lengths third of 7 to Monte Linas in maiden (4/1) at this C&D 14 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Looked like breaking his duck over C&D latest but lost two places late on; blinkers now..
6th	2 6th (2) (8/1 +43%) Bullet		8 8/1(+43%)																															(2) Bullet 8/1, Offered something to work on when sixth of 12 in maiden at Southwell (7.1f, 14/1) in October last year, keeping on gradually. Should improve but likely to need further in time. 14-1 when beaten 8l on debut; no surprise if he makes a significant step up on that..
7th	8 7th (8) (9/1 -29%) Hildegard		9 9/1(-29%)																															(8) Hildegard 9/1, 50,000 gns yearling, Zoffany filly. Sister to winner up to 7f Jimmy Sparks. 16/1, fifth of 12 in novice event at this C&D on debut 28 days ago, nearest finish. Should progress. Ran on late and showed ability no debut; no surprise if she comes on a fair bit for that..
8th	9 8th (9) (66/1 -136%) Jophiel		66 66/1(-136%)																															(9) Jophiel 66/1, 37,000 gns yearling, Harry Angel filly.

LTO Selection:

---

1st: 2.13/1 (1) MONTE LINAS 2nd: 1.88/1 (7) AMERICAN BELLE 3rd: 11/1 (3) FLAME SPIRIT

Runner-up over C&D on her last two starts, this represents a good opportunity for AMERICAN BELLE to get off the mark at the seventh time of asking and she is fancied to go one better here. James Fanshawe's three-year-old is fairly well-related and there is likely much more in her locker. Monte Linas secured a comfortable success on his racecourse debut last month and is feared most, despite having to shoulder a 7lb penalty for that success, while Terwada completes the shortlist.

HILDEGARD caught the eye when fifth in a novice over C&D on debut 4 weeks ago and can find the required improvement to beat form-pick American Belle, who finished over 4 lengths in front of the selection that day. Monte Linas overcame inexperience to make a winning debut over C&D 2 weeks ago and is another to consider despite his penalty.

A penalty will make things tougher after his winning debut but, given his potential, MONTE LINAS is taken to follow up.

7	7 (7) (80/1 -100%) Monty's Way		80 80/1(-100%)																															(7) Monty's Way 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Useful winner at 17f on flat. 200/1, eighth of 9 in minor event hurdle at Naas (16.3f, soft) 35 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Plenty to find on form. Upped in trip for handicap debut and of limited appeal although better ground may suit.
1	4 1st (4) (8/1 -14%) Miss Tempo		8 8/1(-14%)																															(4) Miss Tempo 8/1, 14/1, career best when winning 23-runner handicap hurdle at Naas (18.9f, soft) 35 days ago, well ridden. Stable having good spell. Respected up 7 lb. All-the-way Naas winner after long absence; has form on good ground but not over this far.
2	13 2nd (13) (12/1 +14%) Ladiam		12 12/1(+14%)																															(13) Ladiam 12/1, Very good second of 9 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Ballinrobe (22.1f, soft) 20 days ago. Can give a good account. Promising Ballinrobe comeback run augurs well; ground in her favour too.
3	17 3rd (17) (50/1 +0%) Midnight Our Fred		50 50/1(+0%)																															(17) Midnight Our Fred 50/1, 50/1, seventeenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20.1f, good to soft) 68 days ago. Up in trip. Tailed off on handicap debut after being hampered at Fairyhouse; others preferred.
4	11 4th (11) (12/1 -33%) Mister Twist		12 12/1(-33%)																															(11) Mister Twist 12/1, Good second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, good to soft, 18/1) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Going the right way and needs considering. Progressive maiden of late; up further in trip here and contender if he stays.
5th	14 5th (14) (33/1 -65%) Navigator Jack		33 33/1(-65%)																															(14) Navigator Jack 33/1, 20/1, last of 14 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 129 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time. Absent since below-par run over Christmas and returns with tongue tie tried.
6th	18 6th (18) (3.5/1 +61%) Positive Thinker		3.5 3.5/1(+61%)																															(18) Positive Thinker 3.5/1, 9/4, won 11-runner handicap chase at this course (23.6f, soft) on debut over fences 16 days ago, digging deep. Switches from chase to hurdles. Looks competitive on form. Recent handicap chase winner here has to be on the shortlist back hurdling.
7th	8 7th (8) (6.5/1 +7%) Rebellious Gale		6.5 6.5/1(+7%)																															(8) Rebellious Gale 6.5/1, Bit below form fifth of 20 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Fairyhouse (20.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Trip on latest inadequate; longer trip and better ground here in his favour.
8th	16 8th (16) (25/1 -150%) Aide De Camp		25 25/1(-150%)																															(16) Aide De Camp 25/1, 5/1, seventh of 11 in handicap hurdle at Tramore (20.6f, good to soft) 17 days ago, not knocked about. Finishing well of late over shorter so another try at this longer trip understandable.
9th	2 9th (2) (11/1 +21%) Junior Rattler		11 11/1(+21%)																															(2) Junior Rattler 11/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 26 in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Navan (20f, good to soft) 61 days ago. Up in trip. Expected to be bang there. Navan run encouraging; longer trip here should suit and could prove a bit of value.
3	3 |U| (3) (10/1 -54%) Bocelli's Voice		10 10/1(-54%)																															(3) Bocelli's Voice 10/1, Progressive form, winning 18.5f Cork maiden in March. Significantly up in trip. Should have more to offer in handicaps. One to consider. Clonmel maiden winner encounters quicker ground here and upped markedly in trip.
10th	12 10th (12) (10/1 +50%) American Money		10 10/1(+50%)																															(12) American Money 10/1, Winner in hurdle at Punchestown in January. Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Gowran (20f, heavy, 8/1) 54 days ago. Back up in trip. Testing conditions likely against him at Gowran; better ground now so not one to rule out.
11th	5 11th (5) (16/1 +52%) Nephin Beg		16 16/1(+52%)																															(5) Nephin Beg 16/1, Winner in hurdle at Cork in December. Fell in minor event hurdle at Wexford (24f, heavy, 16/1) 34 days ago. Faller at Wexford in novice company, will appreciate return to handicap ranks.
12th	19 12th (19) (25/1 -108%) Ernie From Nurney		25 25/1(-108%)																															(19) Ernie From Nurney 25/1, Eleventh of 15 in novice chase at Thurles (20.9f, soft, 15/2) on debut over fences 52 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Tongue strap back on. Can make presence felt back hurdling. No show on recent chasing debut and now upped in trip on hurdles return.
13th	9 13th (9) (22/1 -57%) Fancy A Cosmo		22 22/1(-57%)																															(9) Fancy A Cosmo 22/1, Off 11 months, ninth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Cork (24.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago, prtobably needing the run. Rachael Blackmore takes the ride now. One to note in the betting. Needs to come on plenty for recent comeback run at Cork; unproven over this far.
14th	15 14th (15) (66/1 -230%) Prussia With Love		66 66/1(-230%)																															(15) Prussia With Love 66/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Listowel (20f, good to soft, 25/1), tailed off when pulled up before 3 out. Off 19 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Paul Hennessy. Winner for Dan Skelton but can only be watched after 20 months absence.
15th	20 15th (20) (40/1 -21%) Sean Og		40 40/1(-21%)																															(20) Sean Og 40/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16.2f, heavy, 16/1) 147 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Very hard to make a case for. Has raced only over 2m to-date so potential improver now upped in trip.
16th	1 16th (1) (6.5/1 +19%) Heyjoe De Kerser		6.5 6.5/1(+19%)																															(1) Heyjoe De Kerser 6.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, third of 10 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (24.4f, heavy, 7/2) 108 days ago, going in snatches. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Didn't impress with attitude latest; back on better ground for handicap bow.
10	10 |PU| (10) (28/1 -100%) Johnny Cigar		28 28/1(-100%)																															(10) Johnny Cigar 28/1, Fourteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16f, soft, 15/2) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. No show at Cork on handicap debut when didn't go unbacked; others preferred.
6	6 |PU| (6) (28/1 -12%) Jet Setting Johnny		28 28/1(-12%)																															(6) Jet Setting Johnny 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Sixteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Cork (16f, soft) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Yet to convince over this far and certainly will have to settle better.

LTO Selection:

1st: 4/1 (18) POSITIVE THINKER 2nd: 16/1 (11) MISTER TWIST 3rd: 12/1 (2) JUNIOR RATTLER

LADIAM won a 2m4f maiden at Sligo last summer and made a promising return when upped to 2m6f at Ballinrobe last month. The Norman Lee-trained mare kept on well when runner-up to favourite Nine Graces and should stay this trip. Miss Tempo has won two maidens, losing a 2m5f Tramore event due to a banned substance and overcame an absence of well over a year when making all over 2m3f at Naas in March. The point-to-point winner is another that should appreciate three miles. Bocelli's Voice beat Mister Twist on testing ground at Clonmel and it will be interesting to see how he copes with this significant step up in distance while Positive Thinker, Junior Rattler, Rebellious Gale and Heyjoe De Kerser are others to consider.

There's likely more to come from Cork maiden winner BOCELLI'S VOICE, particularly now stepping up in trip, so he might prove the answer to this very competitive handicap. Junior Rattler, Naas winner Miss Tempo and Philip Fenton's Mister Twist head the many possible dangers. First reserve Lovely Reaction would merit plenty of respect if getting a run.

A recent winner here on chasing debut POSITIVE THINKER makes plenty of appeal back hurdling in an open-looking contest

1	4 1st (4) (2.5/1 +9%) Revolutionary Man		2.5 2.5/1(+9%)																															(4) Revolutionary Man 2.5/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, very good second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 29 days ago. Needs to back that up now. C&D winner; good 2nd after break to subsequent winner; B Loughnane's claim a plus.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 +18%) Porfin		7 7/1(+18%)																															(5) Porfin 7/1, Course winner. Creditable third of 6 in handicap (5/1) at Brighton (5.3f, good) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Significantly back up in trip. Established as a sprinter now but has won over 7f; improvement needed on recent runs.
3	6 3rd (6) (1.5/1 -36%) Buraback		1.5 1.5/1(-36%)																															(6) Buraback 1.5/1, C&D winner. 15/8, best effort for present yard when second of 13 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces replace the hood now and he's very much one to consider operating 3 lb below last winning mark. 3lb lower than for 7f win in October; close 2nd over C&D last week; cheekpieces on.
4	1 4th (1) (3.5/1 +13%) Lilkian		3.5 3.5/1(+13%)																															(1) Lilkian 3.5/1, 4-time course winner. 9/2, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, AW) 8 days ago, denied a run and forced to switch over 1f out. Not out of things from this sort of mark. Reliable since 6f win in March; 7f winner earlier in career; first run at trip for 2 years.
5th	3 5th (3) (16/1 +0%) Rainbow Mirage		16 16/1(+0%)																															(3) Rainbow Mirage 16/1, C&D winner who was successful 4 times in 6/7f handicaps for Mark Rimell last year but operating below best in 2 starts for Richard Hughes when last seen in September. Betting may prove a useful guide back from 7 months off/starting out for new yard. Course winner at 1m/7f; new yard and off since September but D Probert won twice on her.
6th	7 6th (7) (40/1 -21%) Dazzerling		40 40/1(-21%)																															(7) Dazzerling 40/1, 50/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, heavy) 10 days ago, soon off bridle and always behind on back of 4 months off. Blinkers reached for turned out quickly but others make greater appeal. Out of sorts in recent starts and takes on some well-treated rivals back at 7f.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, 1.25/1 (6) BURABACK seems to be the strongest contender. They have performed well in recent races and have won over the course and distance before. They are also operating below their last winning mark and have cheekpieces on. 8.5/1 (5) PORFIN and 2.75/1 (4) REVOLUTIONARY MAN could potentially finish in 2nd and 3rd place, respectively, as they have had decent performances in their recent races and have won over the course and distance before.

REVOLUTIONARY MAN kept on well into second last time at Wolverhampton and the son of Exceed and Excel was raised just 1lb for that display. With Billy Loughnane booked to claim 3lb, he looks to hold every chance of recording his fifth career success. The main danger could be Buraback, who is running off the same mark as when runner-up over C&D recently and tries first-time cheekpieces, while Lilkian is noted too.

BURABACK ran his best race yet since joining Mick Appleby when second in a C&D handicap 8 days ago and, operating 3 lb below his last winning mark, he could well be the answer here. Lilkian and Revolutionary Man head up the dangers.

Marginal preference is for REVOLUTIONARY MAN but Buraback (second choice) is also well treated now.

1	5 1st (5) (2.5/1 +44%) Anificas Beauty		2.5 2.5/1(+44%)																															(5) Anificas Beauty 2.5/1, Still relatively lightly raced and she proved at least as good as ever when scoring on the back of 6 months off over 7f here 3 weeks ago, travelling well and quickening over 1f out. 6 lb higher now but she could well have more to offer on that evidence. Back to form with a 7f win here on her seasonal return; still has handicapping potential.
2	4 2nd (4) (3.5/1 +30%) Araifjan		3.5 3.5/1(+30%)																															(4) Araifjan 3.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. 10/3, respectable third of 8 in handicap at this course (5f) 14 days ago, forced to switch inside final 1f and plugging on. Booking of Marquand catches the eye but he remains 3 lb above his last winning mark. Conditions to suit & he's turned in a string of good runs for this yard; firmly in the mix.
4	3 4th (3) (8/1 -7%) Almodovar Del Rio		8 8/1(-7%)																															(3) Almodovar Del Rio 8/1, Proved determined when off the mark (in first-time cheekpieces) at Brighton (6f) in July. Not disgraced final 2 starts last year and, having been gelded he returned with a good third in 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 4 weeks ago. May come forward from that. 6f turf winner last year; promising return over 7f; should be involved in the finish again.
5th	2 5th (2) (5/1 +29%) Epic Express		5 5/1(+29%)																															(2) Epic Express 5/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap (9/1) at this course (7f) 21 days ago, effort when hampered over 1f out. No surprise to see a better showing and his mark is steadily easing. C&D winner; caught the eye on his return and had an excuse here last time; should go well.
6th	1 6th (1) (4.5/1 -100%) Forca Brasil		4.5 4.5/1(-100%)																															(1) Forca Brasil 4.5/1, Won on debut for this yard (good 5f event at the 2021 Craven Meeting). Little to write home about since (trained in Ireland last year) but interesting to see him back under the care of George Boughey. One to note equipped with a hood. Did not go on from 2yo debut win; back with original yard; down in the weights.
7th	6 7th (6) (40/1 -233%) Company Minx		40 40/1(-233%)																															(6) Company Minx 40/1, C&D winner. 40/1 and visored for 1st time, won 7-runner handicap at Kempton (6f) 29 days ago, the fitting of a first-time visor seemingly the catalyst. However, she doesn't look an obvious follow-up candidate on balance. Made all to spring 40-1 surprise at Kempton last month; easy lead is unlikely this time.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, 3.75/1 (4) ARAIFJAN, 9/1 (3) ALMODOVAR DEL RIO, and 3.33/1 (5) ANIFICAS BEAUTY are all mentioned as having potential and should be involved in the finish. 3.5/1 (1) FORCA BRASIL, while equipped with a hood, has not shown much since his debut win and may be less likely to finish in the top three. Ultimately, the race is unpredictable and could be won by any of the listed horses.

ANIFICAS BEAUTY took a big step forward on her return to action when scoring over 7f at this track last month and a drop in trip may not be enough to stop her following up. She made virtually all on that occasion and is entitled to secure a double off 6lb higher, but Company Minx was a game winner over this trip at Kempton most recently and can give the selection plenty to think about. Araifjan also warrants a market check.

ANIFICAS BEAUTY proved as good as ever when making a winning return from 6 months off over further here 3 weeks ago and the manner of that success suggests she could well have more to offer moving forward. Forca Brasil (non runner at Brighton on Wednesday) is an intriguing contender back in the care of George Boughey and is feared, with Almodovar del Rio also shortlisted.

Most are of interest but EPIC EXPRESS is in better form than this figures suggest and he gets the nod.

1	1 1st (1) (11/1 -22%) Good As Hell		11 11/1(-22%)																															(1) Good As Hell 11/1, Course winner who returned to form when second of 7 in handicap chase at Clonmel (22.8f, heavy) 28 days ago. Back down in trip. Blinkers back on. Shortlisted. Cracking comeback run at Clonmel; drop back in trip here might not be ideal.
2	6 2nd (6) (22/1 -38%) Politicise		22 22/1(-38%)																															(6) Politicise 22/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2020. 14/1, below form sixth of 15 in novice chase at Thurles (20.9f, soft) 52 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Not out of things. Not progressing over fences; return to better ground may suit but others preferred.
3	13 3rd (13) (28/1 +58%) Fly De Megaudais		28 28/1(+58%)																															(13) Fly De Megaudais 28/1, C&D winner. Pulled up in handicap chase at Thurles (16.4f, good to soft, 16/1) 84 days ago won by Added Bonus. Needs a couple of these to falter. C&D winner but lacklustre Thurles run hardly augurs well and 2lb out of handicap here.
4	3 4th (3) (5/1 -43%) Know The Game		5 5/1(-43%)																															(3) Know The Game 5/1, Winner in chase at Naas (16f) in December. Career best when close second of 13 in handicap chase at Tramore (15.1f, soft, 13/2) 18 days ago. 4 lb higher now but looks sure to go well again. Just denied at Tramore; all form has been on soft/heavy so would probably appreciate rain.
5th	12 5th (12) (14/1 +22%) Berliet Express		14 14/1(+22%)																															(12) Berliet Express 14/1, Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap chase at Tramore (15.1f, soft, 9/1) 18 days ago. Each-way claims. 0-12 chasing and good bit to find with a couple of today's rivals on recent Tramore run.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -100%) Marvel Fan		16 16/1(-100%)																															(2) Marvel Fan 16/1, Fairly useful winner at 16f over hurdles. Sixth of 9 in handicap chase (9/2) at Cork (16.7f, soft) 24 days ago. Others preferred. Jumping awry at Cork; has a bit to prove now.
7th	9 7th (9) (8/1 -45%) Malinas Glory		8 8/1(-45%)																															(9) Malinas Glory 8/1, First run since leaving Eoghan O'Grady when creditable third of 13 in handicap chase (13/2) at Tramore (15.1f, soft) 18 days ago, barely adequate test. First run for yard after leaving Brian O'Keeffe. Respected. Tramore form included recent third over 2m; bit to find with second-placed Know The Game.
8th	8 8th (8) (7/1 -8%) Jack Holiday		7 7/1(-8%)																															(8) Jack Holiday 7/1, Exploited much lower mark when winning 19-runner handicap hurdle at this course (16f, soft) 16 days ago, always holding on. Still fairly treated on old form, back chasing here, and must enter calculations. Recent hurdles winner here has a good record at the track; respected back chasing.
9th	5 9th (5) (18/1 -80%) Lord Gillygooley		18 18/1(-80%)																															(5) Lord Gillygooley 18/1, Fair winner at 24f over hurdles. Fifth of 9 in novice chase (16/1) at Kilbeggan (22f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Down in trip. Visor on 1st time. Merits consideration on handicap chase debut. Visor now tried in first handicap chase over an inadequate trip.
10	10 |U| (10) (10/1 +38%) Trishknowsbest		10 10/1(+38%)																															(10) Trishknowsbest 10/1, 9/2, below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, heavy) 32 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Makes handicap chase debut. Has work to do. Mixed form of late over hurdles and fences; better ground now in her favour.
10th	11 10th (11) (25/1 +0%) Added Bonus		25 25/1(+0%)																															(11) Added Bonus 25/1, One win from 25 NH runs. Winner in chase at Thurles in February. Ninth of 13 in handicap chase (11/1) at Thurles (20.5f, soft) 47 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others preferred. Well held over 2m4f since Thurles win; should appreciate return to this minimum trip.
11th	4 11th (4) (5.5/1 +15%) Coole Arcade		5.5 5.5/1(+15%)																															(4) Coole Arcade 5.5/1, Two wins from 5 runs last season. Fair winner at 16f over hurdles. Fell in handicap chase at Naas (20f, soft, 14/1) 173 days ago. Trainer going well. Others more persuasive. Last two wins came after breaks so clearly goes well fresh and ground to suit.

Held over hurdles but 10lb lower now reverting to fences so of interest; ground to suit.

LTO Selection:

1st: 7.5/1 (3) KNOW THE GAME 2nd: 5/1 (8) JACK HOLIDAY 3rd: 14/1 (1) GOOD AS HELL

COOLE ARCADE appreciates good ground and won over hurdles here last year. The Henry de Bromhead-trained gelding also scored over fences last summer at Wexford and it will be interesting to see how strong he is in the market following a six months break. Know The Game had Malinas Glory six lengths back in third when just denied by Freddie Robdal at Tramore last month, while Good As Hell is another for the shortlist. The topweight has gained both victories on decent ground including a 2m4f handicap chase here last autumn and shaped well on his reappearance at Clonmel last month where the combination of heavy ground and a step up in trip only just proved too much. Jack Holiday has a C&D win to his credit and again showed his liking for this venue when successfully reverting to hurdles last month.

Preference is for KNOW THE GAME, who was just touched off by an unexposed rival at Tramore last time and remains feasibly treated. Jack Holiday and Good As Hell should also go well.

None really stand out but COOLE ARCADE goes well here, likes the ground and runs well fresh so has plenty of positives

1	5 1st (5) (3.5/1 +56%) Mamillius		3.5 3.5/1(+56%)																															(5) Mamillius 3.5/1, C&D winner. Returned to form when third of 10 over C&D last week. Another who could get involved. Much more encouragement in last week's close 3rd over C&D; needs serious consideration.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/1 -80%) Recon Mission		9 9/1(-80%)																															(1) Recon Mission 9/1, Promiment racer who went close to making a winning reappearance at Epsom (5f, heavy) last week. Should make a bold bid from an unchanged mark. Good run over 5f at Epsom last week after a break; can't rule out off the same mark.
3	6 3rd (6) (50/1 -150%) Cashew		50 50/1(-150%)																															(6) Cashew 50/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. 12/1, last of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) when last seen in October. First run for yard after leaving George Boughey. Two wins for G Boughey as a 2yo; mixed record last year; sold 22,000gns in Oct; opposable.
4	4 4th (4) (4.5/1 -13%) Impeach		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(4) Impeach 4.5/1, Three-time C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 16/1, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, soft) 16 days ago. Others more persuasive. Three-time C&D winner; more realistically weighted now and a big run looks on the cards.
5th	2 5th (2) (2.25/1 +18%) Mellys Flyer		2.25 2.25/1(+18%)																															(2) Mellys Flyer 2.25/1, 11/4, won 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 24 days ago, driven out. The majority of his 4 lb rise is offset by Benoit de la Sayette's claim. Bold show likely. Ready winner at Wolverhampton last month; should remain competitive at this level.
6th	7 6th (7) (4/1 -14%) Bobby On The Beat		4 4/1(-14%)																															(7) Bobby On The Beat 4/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner C&D handicap 31 days ago, keeping on well. Ought to remain competitive after a 6 lb rise. Conditions to suit and won well here last month; up 6lb in a stronger race though.
7th	3 7th (3) (7/1 -17%) Dayman		7 7/1(-17%)																															(3) Dayman 7/1, Notched a pair of 7f AW wins for David Loughnane last year. Not at his best at the end of 2022 but has joined an in-form yard ahead of this reappearance. Also wears a first-time visor. One to note in the betting. Two 7f AW wins for former yard last year; ended the season poorly; new headgear for return.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, the horses that have a higher chance of finishing in the top three are: 1. 3/1 (2) MELLYS FLYER 2. 4.5/1 (3) DAYMAN 3. 5/1 (5) MAMILLIUS

Bobby On The Beat likes it around here and must be respected having recorded a comfortable C&D success on his latest outing, but MELLYS FLYER could prove too strong. George Scott's charge went up 4lb in the ratings for his recent Wolverhampton success, although Benoit De La Sayette's 3lb claim negates the majority of that and it would be no surprise were he to follow up. Recon Mission could have a say, while Mamillius is not without a chance either.

RECON MISSION went close in a higher grade at Epsom on last week's reappearance and may be capable of going one better off the same mark. Last month's Wolverhampton scorer Mellys Flyer is feared most with Benoit de la Sayette taking a handy 3 lb off. Dayman is on a winning mark and needs keeping an eye on in the betting on his first outing for the in-form Dominic Ffrench Davis stable.

Impeach has his optimum conditions but the veteran MAMILLIUS looked ready to strike when finishing third here last week.

1	2 1st (2) (5/1 -25%) Melakaz		5 5/1(-25%)																															(2) Melakaz 5/1, 9/2, did well under the circumstances when fifth of 16 in handicap at Nottingham (14f, good), caught further back than ideal. Off 7 months. Thoroughly likeable sort who is definitely the type to win races this season. Last three attempts on AW have resulted in wins; interesting back in this sphere.
2	5 2nd (5) (8.5/1 -6%) Master Grey		8.5 8.5/1(-6%)																															(5) Master Grey 8.5/1, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Won 12-runner handicap (4/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 26 days ago, staying on to lead last ½f. May struggle back up in grade. Strike-rate of 3-6 this year but now goes back up in grade (most wins in Class 6).
3	7 3rd (7) (5/1 +33%) Smokey Malone		5 5/1(+33%)																															(7) Smokey Malone 5/1, Course winner. 8/1, won 9-runner handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 20 days ago, taking advantage of the runner-up wandering off a true line to lead last ½f. Nudged up 2 lb and should remain competitive. Back in better form last month; now returns to higher grade (all wins in Class 6).
4	6 4th (6) (3.5/1 -17%) What Will Be		3.5 3.5/1(-17%)																															(6) What Will Be 3.5/1, Badly out of sorts over hurdles in recent months but bounced back to form returned to the level when scoring over C&D last month. Similar form upped in trip when third at this course (16f, 9/2) 3 weeks ago so can't be dismissed. Dual C&D winner; not disgraced over 2m last time; strong chance back at 1m6f.
5th	3 5th (3) (3.5/1 +22%) Cedar Cage		3.5 3.5/1(+22%)																															(3) Cedar Cage 3.5/1, 13/2, won 5-runner handicap at this course (16f) 2 weeks ago, leading last ½f and well on top finish. Nudged up 3 lb and could well have a say having been placed several times off a mark of 80 for previous yard. Has form figures of 2121 in 1m6f/2m contests on AW; 2-4 under George Eddery.
6th	1 6th (1) (8/1 +20%) Daniel Deronda		8 8/1(+20%)																															(1) Daniel Deronda 8/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, soft, 33/1) 27 days ago. Up in trip. Better showing anticipated dropped into a 0-70 for the first time in a while. Doesn't appear to be crying out for this longer trip.
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 +40%) Beggarman		6 6/1(+40%)																															(4) Beggarman 6/1, Won this corresponding event last year but ended season out of sorts, tailed-off last of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (17.1f, good, 8/1) 7 months ago. Will need to hit the ground running. Won this race (off this mark) last year; good chance if back to that form.

LTO Selection:

1st place: 3.5/1 (3) CEDAR CAGE 2nd place: 5/1 (2) MELAKAZ 3rd place: 3.5/1 (6) WHAT WILL BE

Smokey Malone steps up in class following a game win over this trip at Southwell last month and can have a say in proceedings off 2lb higher, but recent course winner CEDAR CAGE is marginally preferred on this occasion. He has gone up 3lb for a comfortable success over 2m most recently and is fancied to land a double here, while Master Grey scored with some authority at Wolverhampton on his latest outing and is another to bear in mind.

MELAKAZ is a thoroughly likeable sort who is definitely the type to win more races this year. Robert Stephens' 5-y-o gets the vote to make a winning reappearance at the expense of What Will Be, who ran well on both outings at this venue last month and should be in the mix once again. Smokey Malone can fill out third spot.

The percentage call goes to WHAT WILL BE (nap), who is 2-2 over C&D. Cedar Cage is second choice ahead of Melakaz.

1	4 1st (4) (1/1 +33%) Maxxum		1 1/1(+33%)																															(4) Maxxum 1/1, Useful hurdler who landed big-field handicap at Leopardstown in December. Respectable fourteenth of 23 in Pertemps at Cheltenham (24f, good to soft, 9/2) 49 days ago. Interesting now going chasing. Quickly rose from 99 to 138 over hurdles on last three 2022 starts, will be hard to beat.
2	6 2nd (6) (4/1 +11%) Walk Away		4 4/1(+11%)																															(6) Walk Away 4/1, Useful chaser. Creditable second of 15 in handicap chase at Punchestown (21f, good to soft, 20/1). Off over 2 years but trainer going well so shouldn't be underestimated. Not seen since 2021 Punchestown festival, form is linked to several top-class horses.
3	2 3rd (2) (1.88/1 -7%) Hubrisko		1.88 1.88/1(-7%)																															(2) Hubrisko 1.88/1, Useful hurdler. Seventeenth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (21.7f, soft, 12/1) 24 days ago. Makes chase debut. Yard in good form so merits consideration. Raised in class after Galway maiden hurdle win last autumn, 6lb below Maxxum over hurdles.
5	5 |F| (5) (40/1 -21%) Sphagnum		40 40/1(-21%)																															(5) Sphagnum 40/1, Fair hurdler. Last of 9 in novice chase at Kilbeggan (22f, good to soft, 14/1) on debut over fences 13 days ago. Should still have more to offer. Progressive handicap hurdler on good ground last summer, poor on recent chase debut.
1	1 |PU| (1) (16/1 -14%) Clonmeen		16 16/1(-14%)																															(1) Clonmeen 16/1, Fairly useful chaser. 25/1, fair fourth of 19 in novice hurdle at this course (20.2f, soft) on hurdles bow 16 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase and not ruled out. Two wins and four seconds to his name in points, has picked up useful chasing experience.
7	7 |PU| (7) (50/1 -67%) Winter Carnival		50 50/1(-67%)																															(7) Winter Carnival 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Limerick (24f, heavy) 127 days ago. Makes chase debut with something to prove now. Twice second in points, ran a couple of good races over hurdles at Limerick last spring.
3	3 |PU| (3) (100/1 -52%) Imminent Arrival		100 100/1(-52%)																															(3) Imminent Arrival 100/1, Modest hurdler. 14/1, below form eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (24f, soft) 63 days ago. Makes chase debut with more needed. Has struggled off marks in the 90s over hurdles, unlikely to feature on chasing debut.

LTO Selection:

---

1.2/1 (4) MAXXUM is likely to do well and has a good chance of finishing in 1st place. 14/1 (1) CLONMEEN and 2.5/1 (2) HUBRISKO are also worth considering and may finish in 2nd and 3rd place respectively.

MAXXUM might be able to take this on his debut over fences. He blitzed his rivals in big field, competitive handicaps at Navan and Leopardstown late last year, before disappointing at the Dublin Racing Festival when sent off favourite for a Grade B contest. He again failed to make a significant impact in the Pertemps at Cheltenham, but in much calmer waters now, he might return to the winners enclosure. Hubrisko is an interesting contender for Willie Mullins and is sure to prove popular with punters. He disappointed on his handicap debut over flights at Fairyhouse on Easter Sunday but was tried in Graded company prior to that, finishing fourth when favourite for a Grade 2 at Cheltenham in November. Walk Away has some classy form to his name and is well capable of winning this. However, he is returning from a two-year absence and is probably best watched for the time being. Dual point-to-point winner Clonmeen looks best of the rest.

Gordon Elliott's MAXXUM has enjoyed an excellent season over hurdles and is fancied to make a winning start in this sphere at the chief expense of fellow chasing newcomer Hubrisko, who remains with few miles on the clock. Walk Away has the form to play a part too if fully wound up after a long absence.

Although disappointing when one of the main Irish fancies for the Pertemps Final MAXXUM could make an immediate impact over fences

1	2 1st (2) (2.75/1 +39%) Grandfather Tom		2.75 2.75/1(+39%)																															(2) Grandfather Tom 2.75/1, C&D winner. 14/1, likely needed the outing when sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (5f) on reappearance 28 days ago. Down to a mark in the 50s for the first time in his career. Respected. Should come on for last month's reappearance and he's on a lowly mark; respected.
2	5 2nd (5) (10/1 -82%) Perfect Symphony		10 10/1(-82%)																															(5) Perfect Symphony 10/1, 66/1, won 9-runner C&D handicap 8 days ago by head from the reopposing Therehegoes. May struggle to confirm those placing on the revised terms. 66-1 when narrowly beating Therehegoes over C&D last week; not an obvious one to follow up.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.62/1 +28%) Therehegoes		1.62 1.62/1(+28%)																															(3) Therehegoes 1.62/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in March. 7/1, good head second of 9 to Perfect Symphony in C&D handicap 8 days ago. Taken to turn the tables on that rival on the revised terms. 5f winner at Wolverhampton in March; near miss over C&D last week; one to consider.
4	4 4th (4) (3.33/1 -48%) Battle Point		3.33 3.33/1(-48%)																															(4) Battle Point 3.33/1, Didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap C&D handicap 16 days ago, just holding on. Likely to remain very competitive after just a 2 lb nudge. Off the mark over C&D 16 days ago; well drawn to attack; major player once again.
5th	6 5th (6) (33/1 +0%) Pacopash		33 33/1(+0%)																															(6) Pacopash 33/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 3¼ lengths seventh of 8 to Battle Point in C&D handicap 6 days ago. The wait for a first win is likely to go on. Exposed maiden; behind Battle Point here last time and opposable once more.
6th	1 6th (1) (7.5/1 +6%) Suanni		7.5 7.5/1(+6%)																															(1) Suanni 7.5/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. 4½ lengths last of 8 to Battle Point in C&D handicap 16 days ago, completely blowing the start. Capable on a going day but he can pull, often hangs and fluffed the start last time.

LTO Selection:

---

1st: 3/1 (4) BATTLE POINT 2nd: 1.63/1 (3) THEREHEGOES 3rd: 5.5/1 (2) GRANDFATHER TOM

THEREHEGOES (second) is 2lb well in having been narrowly denied by Perfect Symphony here eight days ago and, with the latter now competing under a 4lb penalty, it would be no surprise were he to reverse that form. A winner over C&D last month, Battle Point can mount another serious challenge, while Grandfather Tom, who drops back into 0-60 company, cannot be ruled out either.

THEREHEGOES went close over C&D last week and can go one better off the same mark. Grandfather Tom could strip fitter with last month's reappearance behind him and is a potentially dangerous opponent now dropping to a 0-60 for the first time. Last-time-out C&D scorer Battle Point is also unlikely to be far away.

Battle Point should give it another good go from stall 1 but GRANDFATHER TOM can capitalise on his career-low mark.

Can resume winning ways back up in trip. Has form figures of 3312 since handicapping; holds solid claims.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 -5%) Dabbous		3.5 3.5/1(-5%)																															(1) Dabbous 3.5/1, Won on handicap debut at this C&D in April. Having his second run in 2 days, probably found race coming too soon when twelfth of 14 in handicap at Bath (1m, soft, 5/1) 27 days ago. Could bounce back. C&D winner on handicap debut (two runs ago); may well have more to offer back here.

Needs to find more, but is bred to be suited by this longer distance. Bred to do better still and may benefit from this step up to 1m2f.

Capable of better. Made an encouraging handicap debut at Nottingham last time; respected.
5th	5 5th (5) (16/1 -78%) Churchill Rose		16 16/1(-78%)																															(5) Churchill Rose 16/1, Shaped as if back in form when fourth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (1m, 25/1) 17 days ago, short of room over 2f out. Could be able to build on that effort as she goes up in trip. Improved effort at Kempton last month; possibilities off same mark.

7th	8 7th (8) (150/1 -355%) City Of Aliaa		150 150/1(-355%)																															(8) City Of Aliaa 150/1, Has shown little in varied events so far, after 10 months off finished tenth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, soft, 28/1) 12 days ago. Remains best watched with blinkers on 1st time. Needs marked improvement in first-time blinkers.
8th	3 8th (3) (50/1 -178%) Lady D'ascoyne		50 50/1(-178%)																															(3) Lady D'ascoyne 50/1, 50/1 and hooded for 1st time, still green when eleventh of 12 in minor event at this course (7f) 28 days ago. Significantly up in trip for her handicap debut. There are mixed messages in pedigree with regards to this new trip.

LTO Selection:

---

1st: 2.2/1 (6) YOU SAW BRIGADOON, 2nd: 3.5/1 (1) DABBOUS, 3rd: 4.5/1 (7) GREEK GIANT

You Saw Brigadoon remains in good form and must be considered, along with Dabbous, who should appreciate the return to C&D having won here from 7lb lower last month, but a chance is taken on LADY D'ASCOYNE. The daughter of Showcasing displayed some promise on her debut at Goodwood last year, but her pedigree suggests she can take a marked step forward up in trip on this handicap bow.

YOU SAW BRIGADOON has shown improved form sent handicapping this year, gettng off the mark at Wolverhampton in March before bumping into a handicap debutante when runner-up last time. He remains unexposed at this longer distance and can resume winning ways, though Greek Giant and Churchill Rose are also open to progress and are feared most.

The vote goes to GREEK GIANT, who should build on his Nottingham effort. Dabbous is second choice.

First run for yard after leaving Sean McParlan. Tongue strap on 1st time. Makes plenty of appeal. Impressed in making a winning racecourse debut, form of point win has been well advertised.
2	10 2nd (10) (6/1 +0%) Lar's Lass		6 6/1(+0%)																															(10) Lar's Lass 6/1, Fair chaser. One win from 2 runs last season. Winner in chase at Cork in April. Good second of 7 in hunter chase (7/2) at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Won in good style at Cork, no disgrace in losing out to Lord Schnitzel at Tramore.

Beaten almost 8l when fourth to Lar's Lass at Cork, has plenty of track experience.

Dam, lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 27f) Rev It Up. Mixed bag in points. Placed only once from six starts in points, makes no appeal in this grade.
7th	9 7th (9) (50/1 -25%) Starlight Cato		50 50/1(-25%)																															(9) Starlight Cato 50/1, Once-raced maiden. 18/1, fell in hunter chase at Cork (24f, soft) on NH debut 24 days ago. Others make more appeal. Inconsistent in points, let down by his jumping at Cork in his first hunter chase.
8th	1 8th (1) (8/1 -45%) Grange Island		8 8/1(-45%)																															(1) Grange Island 8/1, Fairly useful chaser. Winner in chase at Clonmel in January. Pulled up in hunter chase (11/2) at Cork (20f, soft) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Obvious claims if he can bounce back. Good chance if his last two runs are discounted and if reproducing Clonmel and Naas form.
9th	4 9th (4) (11/1 -10%) Boss Robin		11 11/1(-10%)																															(4) Boss Robin 11/1, Once-raced maiden. Second of 8 in hunter chase at Cork (24f, soft, 15/2) on NH debut 24 days ago, no match for winner. Point winner on debut before take third, solid effort when second on racecourse debut.
10th	8 10th (8) (25/1 -56%) Pure Decent		25 25/1(-56%)																															(8) Pure Decent 25/1, Shantou gelding. Brother to bumper winner Ballagh, stays 21f. Dam, lightly-raced maiden, out of sister to top-class staying chaser Jodami. Runner-up sole start in points (Apr 16). Showed promise on his belated debut at Tattersalls Farm, stepping up in class now.

First Place: 2.5/1 (2) SHANTOU SHOW Second Place: 8/1 (10) LAR'S LASS Third Place: 7/1 (1) GRANGE ISLAND

This has an open look to it, with ASIAN MASTER the suggestion for the father and son team of Tony and Tom Costello. A dual point-to-point winner, he finished second in a bumper at Cork on Easter Monday. Back over fences now and back up in trip, a bold bid looks likely from the son of Shirocco. The hat-trick seeking Shantou Show is an obvious danger. An easy winner on his racecourse debut at Downpatrick early last month, it'll come as a surprise if he is not involved towards the business end here. Pour Me A Double beat Ballydesmond by 14 lengths on his penultimate start at Tattersalls, with that one since successful at Down Royal on Monday. Trained by Willie Murphy, the Pour Moi gelding will be ridden by his wife Moira McElligott. The consistent Lar's Lass should give a good account of herself, while Grange Island is another capable of making his presence felt.

SHANTOU SHOW was off the mark at the second attempt in points and completed a successful chasing debut at Downpatrick a month ago. Despite moving yards since, he's fancied to go in again for all that Grange Island would be a big threat if back to the sort of form he showed when scoring at Clonmel in January. Asian Master is another one to consider.

Tony Costello may have the solution with ASIAN MASTER who probably surpassed his winning points form when second in a Cork bumper

1	4 1st (4) (4.5/1 +59%) Ithaca's Arrow		4.5 4.5/1(+59%)																															(4) Ithaca's Arrow 4.5/1, Showed a bit in 3 runs towards the end of 2022 and his stable's good form provides the hope for better on this return to action. Not entirely solid on 2yo form (has one standout effort).
2	3 2nd (3) (0.73/1 +55%) Edge Of Ember		0.73 0.73/1(+55%)																															(3) Edge Of Ember 0.73/1, Promising start to his career, finishing second at Kempton (11f) and here (1¼m) in March. The step up to 1½m should suit. The one to beat with further progress likely. Runner-up twice in March, clear of remainder at this course latest; best chance on form.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/1 -140%) Grand Providence		6 6/1(-140%)																															(6) Grand Providence 6/1, Promising sort. 1½ lengths third of 7 to Flower of Dubai in maiden at Kempton (11f, 7/2) on debut 15 days ago, staying on from the rear. Likely to improve. Not far behind Flower Of Dubai at Kempton on debut; now gets 7lb pull with the winner.
4	5 4th (5) (50/1 -400%) D Day Arvalenreeva		50 50/1(-400%)																															(5) D Day Arvalenreeva 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. 4½ lengths fifth of 7 to the reopposing Flower of Dubai in maiden (7/2) at Kempton (11f) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to find a few too strong. Pedigree suggests this step up to 1m4f will prompt more progress.
5th	2 5th (2) (14/1 +58%) Cosmic View		14 14/1(+58%)																															(2) Cosmic View 14/1, 28/1, fourteenth of 15 in novice at Yarmouth (1¼m, heavy) on debut 19 days ago. Flower of Dubai has to be considered the stable first string. Well beaten in soft-ground event on debut; may do better on this surface.
6th	1 6th (1) (7.5/1 -125%) Flower Of Dubai		7.5 7.5/1(-125%)																															(1) Flower Of Dubai 7.5/1, 7/2, won 7-runner maiden at Kempton (11f) on debut 15 days ago, with the reopposing Grand Providence 1½ lengths back in third. Not certain to confirm those placings on the revised terms but she is open to further progress. Beat some of these rivals at Kempton on debut and looks open to progress; respected.
7th	7 7th (7) (300/1 -200%) Rhythm Dancer		300 300/1(-200%)																															(7) Rhythm Dancer 300/1, Big prices when down the field in 2 AW runs this spring. Booked for another struggle. Handicaps more suitable after this.

1st: 1.25/1 (3) EDGE OF EMBER 2nd: 5.5/1 (1) FLOWER OF DUBAI 3rd: 2.75/1 (6) GRAND PROVIDENCE

The key to this race looks to be last month's clash between Flower Of Dubai (first) and GRAND PROVIDENCE (third) at Kempton. Andrew Balding's filly is 7lb better off here though and is duly taken to overturn that form with the extra furlong to suit. Runner-up on both career outings, Edge Of Ember can also have a say in proceedings.

EDGE OF EMBER has shaped well when runner-up on his first 2 outings and can make it third time lucky now stepping up to 1½m for the first time. Grand Providence was 1½ lengths behind the reopposing Flower of Dubai at Kempton but a 7 lb swing in the weights looks enough for her to turn the tables and she can give the selection most to think about.

Dual silver medallist EDGE OF EMBER sets the form standard. Grand Providence and Flower Of Dubai are open to progress.

1	2 1st (2) (3/1 +14%) Mayfair Gold		3 3/1(+14%)																															(2) Mayfair Gold 3/1, Didn't need to improve when off the mark in 9-runner handicap at Southwell (8.1f) in January. Should still have more to offer as she goes back up in trip. 1m winner; may be able to settle better for this step back up in trip; up 4lb; player..
2	1 2nd (1) (1.75/1 +0%) Boasty		1.75 1.75/1(+0%)																															(1) Boasty 1.75/1, 10/11, made it back-to-back wins at this C&D when successful in 7-runner handicap 28 days ago, comfortably. Not taken lightly in his current mood. Back-to-back C&D winner; up 6lb but no surprise if he is capable of defying that rise..
3	5 3rd (5) (2.75/1 +39%) Cavalluccio		2.75 2.75/1(+39%)																															(5) Cavalluccio 2.75/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year, successful at this C&D in April. 9/4, bumped into well-treated winner when second of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth (1m, soft) 9 days ago. Major player back up in trip. In-form C&D winner; in a higher grade than last time but should remain competitive..
4	3 4th (3) (8/1 -78%) Marion's Boy		8 8/1(-78%)																															(3) Marion's Boy 8/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Only narrowly denied when second of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (1m2f, AW, 6/1) 36 days ago, conceding first run. Lurks on a dangerous mark. Four-time 1m2f Lingfield winner; went close latest; still to prove as good elsewhere..
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 +0%) Lenny's Spirit		10 10/1(+0%)																															(4) Lenny's Spirit 10/1, Won 3 times last year. After 5 months off, not discredited when fifth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (1m, AW, 9/1) 31 days ago. Others look stronger as he goes back up in trip. Reasonably consistent but others looks a bit better handicapped at present..

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, I would predict that 2.5/1 (1) BOASTY will do well and finish in 1st place. 2/1 (5) CAVALLUCCIO may finish in 2nd place, and 6.5/1 (3) MARION'S BOY could finish in 3rd place.

Boasty arrives in good form having notched up a brace of C&D wins recently, but a 6lb rise for the latest of those victories leaves him on a career-high mark and MAYFAIR GOLD is preferred. Alan King's charge scored on her second handicap start, winning at Southwell in January. It's unlikely she has reached the ceiling of her ability so a 4lb hike could prove lenient. Cavalluccio and Lenny's Spirit can battle it out for third.

CAVALLUCCIO has proved at least as good as ever this year, winning twice from his last 4 starts and finishing runner-up on the other 2 occasions, so he can score again in his current form with the return to 1m2f to suit. Boasty arrives bidding for a hat-trick and isn't taken lightly, with Mayfair Gold the pick of the remainder.

Several of these arrive in good form, none more so than BOASTY, who looked to have more up his sleeve last time and can win again.

LTO Selection:

1st: 35/1 (3) DIXIES GIRL 2nd: 16/1 (1) ANNALECKA 3rd: 4/1 (8) MAJESTIC DESIGN

Eight of these have won in the point-to-point sphere, with MAJESTIC DESIGN the only dual winner in the line-up. A half-sister to a whole host of winners, she claimed the Gain Mares Final on her most recent start at Ballynoe. Pebble Bleu is a half-sister to Remastered, a seven-time winner in the UK for David Pipe. She shaped with promise to finish third on her debut at Rathcannon and should give a good account of herself here with Jamie Codd booked to ride. A case can be made for many others, with the Willie Mullins-trained Spindleberry a leading contender. She won on debut for Mark O'Hare at Dromahane in December, with subsequent winners in third and fourth. Terence O'Brien saddles Pitwood Road and Ma Bess, with this duo also successful on their respective debuts. Second in a similar contest at Cork on Easter Monday, Lucky Viv is another for the shortlist, while Dixies Girl, Annalecka and Iriskana are others to consider.

It's hard to equate the point form on offer but it's safe to assume SPLINDLEBERRY and Orinoco Flow will be well prepared for this given the yards the represent, with marginal preference for the former given she won between the flags.

Very hard to assess but MAJESTIC DESIGN has returned in excellent form of late in points' and gets the vote

1	1 1st (1) (2/1 -82%) Sovereign Spirit		2 2/1(-82%)																															(1) Sovereign Spirit 2/1, 5/2, career best when comfortably winning 5-runner C&D handicap 8 days ago. Potential for better again and likely to go well under a 6 lb penalty. Recorded a clearcut success in similar event over C&D last week; leading player.
2	2 2nd (2) (0.73/1 +64%) Pledgeofallegiance		0.73 0.73/1(+64%)																															(2) Pledgeofallegiance 0.73/1, Has shown definite ability in his 4 qualifying runs and good chance there's more to come now handicapping over a longer trip. Prescott runner who is a likely improver now handicapping and upped in distance.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 -54%) Kilcummin		10 10/1(-54%)																															(4) Kilcummin 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden.

4	5 4th (5) (66/1 -200%) Lady Bianca		66 66/1(-200%)																															(5) Lady Bianca 66/1, Modest maiden. 16/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 35 days ago. Significantly up in trip needs to spark improvement. Best effort at 7f; mixed messages in pedigree with regards to 1m4f.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 -100%) Fishing Rights		12 12/1(-100%)																															(3) Fishing Rights 12/1, Three runs at up to 9.5f at the end of 2022. Bred to be suited by this longer trip and he's one who could have more to offer in handicaps. Visored first time. Likely to do better now he's qualified for a mark and upped in trip.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, 2/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT seems like the leading player and has the potential for better again. Therefore, it's predicted that 2/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT will finish in 1st place. 0.73/1 (2) PLEDGEOFALLEGIANCE also has shown definite ability and is a likely improver, hence predicted to finish in 2nd place. For 3rd place, 12/1 (3) FISHING RIGHTS could be a contender as he is likely to do better now he's qualified for a mark and upped in trip, and is bred to be suited by this longer trip.

SOVEREIGN SPIRIT got off the mark in stylish fashion over C&D last week and a 6lb penalty for that win may not be enough to stop him going in again. This will only be the three-year-old's seventh career outing and he gets the vote ahead of handicap-debutant Pledgeofallegiance and Fishing Rights, who has plenty of potential on his first try at this distance.

SOVEREIGN SPIRT won nicely over C&D last week and is the percentage call with further improvement a possibility, although a strong market move for Sir Mark Prescott handicap newcomer Pledgeofallegiance would put a slightly different slant of things. Fishing Rights is another who could have more to offer now switching to handicaps.

Last week's C&D winner SOVEREIGN SPIRIT has the strongest form claims as things stand. Pledgeofallegiance is feared most.

Below form last 2 starts, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (7f, 8/1) 21 days ago. Continues to fall in the weights but more needed to take advantage. Five-time 7f winner; slipping to a handy mark but plenty still to prove over this trip..

First Place: 4/1 (7) THOMAS EQUINAS Second Place: 7.5/1 (11) NIVELLE'S MAGIC Third Place: 9/1 (1) COMPERE

COMPERE bounced back to form when finishing a close second over course and distance last month and he merits the utmost respect off the same mark here. Thomas Equinas has filled the runner-up position in both starts since winning here in March and is an obvious threat to the selection, while Arlo's Sunshine and The Waiting Game are others who deserve to feature on the shortlist.

Having opened his account at this course in March, THOMAS EQUINAS has continued in good form when runner-up both starts since and he looks ready to gain a first success in handicap company. The main danger could be Waleyfa who had excuses for a below-par effort last time, with Nivelle's Magic completing the shortlist.

A largely inconsistent bunch go to post and THOMAS EQUINAS is taken to score by maintaining his good recent form.

LTO Selection:

1st - 5/1 (10) QUARRY ROCCO 2nd - 22/1 (1) BITSNBUCKLES 3rd - 6.5/1 (15) THE OTHER MOZZIE

THE OTHER MOZZIE is in receipt of a weight allowance on account of his age and is in fact the only four-year-old in the line-up. A half-brother to My Mate Mozzie, he has two solid point-to-point efforts to his name, filling the runner-up spot on his most recent start at Kirkistown. He finished ahead of Rokathir there, with that one since successful at Rathcannon and sold for €110,000 at the Goffs Punchestown Sale last week. The Gavin Cromwell trained selection may appreciate this drop in trip and he will be ridden by Joey Dunne who claims a valuable 7lb. Keep Me Posted is a three-time point-to-point winner and should give a good account of himself with Emily Costello aboard for her uncle Thomas. He finished just a length-and-a-half behind Ultimate Optimist, twice successful on the track since, at Quakerstown in December. What's Up Darling was bought for £280,000 after winning a point-to-point in December. A beaten favourite when third on his debut for current connections at Cork on Easter Monday, it'll come as little surprise if he manages to go a few places better now. Others that warrant respect are Snow Punt, Quarry Rocco and Syracus De Houx.

KEEP ME POSTED is a multiple point winner who had plenty in hand on his latest outing in April and he's worth chancing to make a successful Rules debut at the possible expense of What's Up Darling, who was a respectable third in a bumper at Cork recently. The Other Mozzie and Quarry Rocco are also worthy of consideration.

What's Up Darling disappointed in a similar contest at Cork recently and preference is for triple points' scorer KEEP ME POSTED

1	4 1st (4) (7.5/1 +12%) Riot		7.5 7.5/1(+12%)																															(4) Riot 7.5/1, Kempton novice winner for the Gosden yard at 2 yrs and some good form to his name last year, not least when third in a Royal Ascot handicap. Has made the frame on 2 of his 4 starts for new yard but he's not the easiest to win with and may need this outing.
2	1 2nd (1) (1.38/1 -15%) Tarrabb		1.38 1.38/1(-15%)																															(1) Tarrabb 1.38/1, Won 3 times last year, including over C&D on debut. 7/4, bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) 7 months ago but fancied to get back on the up on just her second outing on the all-weather.
3	2 3rd (2) (5/1 -25%) Sir Oliver		5 5/1(-25%)																															(2) Sir Oliver 5/1, C&D winner. Bounced back to best when second of 11 in handicap (20/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 27 days ago, well positioned.
4	3 4th (3) (1.62/1 +19%) Wyvern		1.62 1.62/1(+19%)																															(3) Wyvern 1.62/1, Latest win at Lingfield in February. 7/2, ran up to best to place again when second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 2 weeks ago. Ought to be in the shake-up once again.

LTO Selection:

---

Based on the summary, it appears that 1.75/1 (3) WYVERN and 5.5/1 (2) SIR OLIVER have the best recent form and are likely contenders for the top spots. 1.75/1 (1) TARRABB has shown potential in the past but may need this race to get back into form. 6/1 (4) RIOT has some good past performances but may not be the easiest to win with. Therefore, a predicted order of finish could be: 1st - 1.75/1 (3) WYVERN 2nd - 5.5/1 (2) SIR OLIVER 3rd - 1.75/1 (1) TARRABB

WYVERN was only beaten a neck into second in a similar event over this track and trip a couple of weeks ago and the four-year-old gets the vote off just a 1lb higher mark. Sir Oliver was also narrowly denied on his most recent outing and that followed an encouraging effort here in March. Tarrabb won some competitive contests last season and she cannot be discounted on her return to action.

A tricky finale to solve despite the small field but WYVERN ran up to his best when foiled only by a 66/1 shot over C&D a fortnight ago and, now nudged up just 1 lb for that near miss, Stuart Williams' charge can notch a fourth career success. The returning Tarrabb shades the vote for the forecast spot over Sir Oliver.

Tarrabb is respected despite her lack of recent match practice. However, a solid alternative is the in-form WYVERN.

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.
