3 3rd (6) (4.5/1 +47%) Ivory Madonna	4.5/1(+47%)	(6) Ivory Madonna 4.5/1, Foaled February 23. 150,000 gns 2-y-o, Dark Angel filly. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner, runner-up in Cornwallis Stakes. Interesting newcomer and betting should provide a useful guide.

13:25 Haydock Handicap (Class 5) 12f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (5.5/1 +21%) Colinton	5.5/1(+21%)	(1) Colinton 5.5/1, Dual AW winner for Rebecca Menzies last summer who has continued the good work for new yard, successful twice at Newcastle prior to going in again at Catterick (12f) in April. Solid efforts in defeat have followed and he merits respect again.
2 2nd (10) (4.5/1 +25%) Carlos Felix	4.5/1(+25%)	(10) Carlos Felix 4.5/1, Didn't kick on from a promising reappearance run at Chester last spring but back on track on AW of late, beaten only by a handicap debutant at Kempton (2m) 17 days ago. On a handy mark back on turf and interesting in first-time cheekpieces.
3 3rd (7) (4/1 -20%) Songo	4/1(-20%)	(7) Songo 4/1, Building up a solid record on the Flat, justifying support to defy a 12-month absence to land 4-runner Bath handicap (11.6f) 3 weeks ago. That was only a thin race but that may not prove his limit over this sort of trip.
4 4th (5) (12/1 +0%) L'enclume	12/1(+0%)	(5) L'enclume 12/1, Improved with each outing in novice events, comfortably on top at the line over 12f at Kempton in January. Similar form when fourth of 7 on handicap debut at that venue in September but still low-mileage and returns from a break with yard in good order.
5th 5th (8) (16/1 -33%) Innse Gall	16/1(-33%)	(8) Innse Gall 16/1, Regained winning thread over 1¼m at Ayr in August prior to making the frame next 3 starts. Ended the campaign below best but he's still low-mileage at around this trip and interesting what the market makes of him on return.
6th 6th (2) (5.5/1 +31%) Gustav Holst	5.5/1(+31%)	(2) Gustav Holst 5.5/1, Maiden who posted best effort yet when runner-up in first-time blinkers at Windsor (11.5f) in April. Never figured on firmer ground next time but better than bare result when sixth in 15-runner Newbury handicap (12f) 8 days ago. Mark has eased further.
7th 7th (6) (11/1 -69%) Wots The Wifi Code	11/1(-69%)	(6) Wots The Wifi Code 11/1, Doubled tally at 1¼m when scoring on return at the Lincoln meeting in March. Continued in good heart since, no extra late on having come from further back than pair that beat him at Ripon (9.7f) 15 days ago. Up in trip.
8th 8th (3) (66/1 -65%) Baltic Baron	66/1(-65%)	(3) Baltic Baron 66/1, On a lengthy losing run and he proved more miss than hit on Flat/over hurdles for Brian Ellison last year. Easy to back and never figured after wind op for new yard at Thirsk 2 weeks ago and tongue tie re-fitted now.
9th 9th (4) (5/1 +17%) Screaming Petrus	5/1(+17%)	(4) Screaming Petrus 5/1, Kingman gelding who confirmed previous promise to open account at third attempt in a Wolverhampton maiden (12.2f) in December. Not disgraced when midfield on handicap debut at Ascot (12f) 2 weeks ago and claims in these calmer waters.
10th 10th (9) (20/1 -67%) Eye Knee	20/1(-67%)	(9) Eye Knee 20/1, Doubled his tally during a busy 2021 at Catterick (12f) in September and far from disgraced final 2 starts at that venue. Present mark probably within reach but he may need the run on return.
11th 11th (11) (33/1 +50%) Set In Stone	33/1(+50%)	(11) Set In Stone 33/1, 8-y-o mare who landed a couple of handicap hurdles during second half of last year. Below best back on the level at Hamilton (9f) 2 weeks ago and others arrive with more pressing claims.

7th 7th (6) (7/1 +22%) Tomfre	7/1(+22%)	(6) Tomfre 7/1, Probably needed run on his Chester reappearance 15 days ago. May strip fitter for the run. Any rain in his favour.
8th 8th (7) (7/1 +7%) Another Batt	7/1(+7%)	(7) Another Batt 7/1, Useful handicapper. 10/3, creditable third of 7 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Enters calculations.
9th 9th (12) (33/1 -200%) Admiral D	33/1(-200%)	(12) Admiral D 33/1, Dual 6f winner at 2 for Michael O'Callaghan in Ireland, the latter a Naas nursery in October. Steps up in trip on return for new stable. Betting perhaps the best guide as to what is expected.
10th 10th (3) (8.5/1 +29%) Safe Voyage	8.5/1(+29%)	(3) Safe Voyage 8.5/1, Chester listed winner last term but comfortably held in Lincoln at Doncaster and Haydock listed this time round. Bounce back needed.

13:45 Goodwood Handicap (Class 2) 7f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (12) (16/1 +20%) Galiac	16/1(+20%)	(12) Galiac 16/1, Lightly-raced colt who opened his account in game fashion in a nursery at Newcastle 6 months ago. Should do better still this term, but hard to know if he'll be tuned up for this return.
2 2nd (5) (7/1 +56%) Find	7/1(+56%)	(5) Find 7/1, Useful performer who travelled well for a long when third at Chelmsford in March but wasn't in the same form at Sandown next time. Drop back in trip should suit.
3 3rd (3) (8.5/1 +23%) Annaf	8.5/1(+23%)	(3) Annaf 8.5/1, Dual winner at Newcastle, latest last in March, and far from disgraced in better company since, eighth in a Newmarket handicap last time. Others look better treated, though.
4 4th (2) (5.5/1 +15%) Bosh	5.5/1(+15%)	(2) Bosh 5.5/1, Progressive last season and, despite signing off with a poor run, he was right back on the up when third in a Newbury handicap on reappearance. Straightforward type who is likely to play a hand.
5th 5th (1) (7.5/1 -36%) Gisburn	7.5/1(-36%)	(1) Gisburn 7.5/1, Has a good sprint pedigree and improved to double his tally in a Newbury nursery on his final juvenile outing 7 months ago. Very much the type to do better as a 3-y-o, so well respected on return.
6th 6th (9) (9/1 +36%) Wonderful World	9/1(+36%)	(9) Wonderful World 9/1, Dual winner last term, latterly in a novice at Doncaster on his final outing. Stable likely to have him pretty straight for this comeback run, but there are others with more potential.
7th 7th (4) (7.5/1 +0%) River Pride	7.5/1(+0%)	(4) River Pride 7.5/1, Nursery winner on the AW final 2-y-o start and improved again to make a winning return in 5-runner handicap at Salisbury. Good second at Newmarket (a week ago) since and should give another good account.
8th 8th (11) (6/1 +33%) War In Heaven	6/1(+33%)	(11) War In Heaven 6/1, Landed a pair of 6f events during the winter (novice/handicap) and got back on the up when runner-up at Ascot 15 days ago. Can get involved if he has a strong pace to aim at.
9th 9th (6) (5.5/1 +21%) Evocative Spark	5.5/1(+21%)	(6) Evocative Spark 5.5/1, Lightly-raced sort who has upped his game since joining current yard, making all in ready fashion at Beverley a month ago. More to come, so capable of defying a rise.
10th 10th (8) (12/1 +33%) My Dubawi	12/1(+33%)	(8) My Dubawi 12/1, Dual winner on AW this year and simply seemed unsuited by the drop back in trip at Newcastle last time. Needs to prove himself on turf, but can't be ruled out.

1 1st (6) (2.25/1 +50%) Waverley Star	2.25/1(+50%)	(6) Waverley Star 2.25/1, 9/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 7 in handicap over C&D, rallying. Unseated rider soon after start at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago and worth another chance.
2 2nd (2) (5.5/1 +21%) Ballistic Berry	5.5/1(+21%)	(2) Ballistic Berry 5.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, fourth of 9 in minor event at Chelmsford City (5f) 44 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap debut.
3 3rd (1) (3.33/1 +5%) Eruption	3.33/1(+5%)	(1) Eruption 3.33/1, C&D winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner here in April. Eighth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Thirsk (5f, good to soft) 14 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Could well bounce back.
4 4th (7) (33/1 -65%) Claret Club	33/1(-65%)	(7) Claret Club 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in handicap (66/1) at Newcastle (5f) 11 days ago.
5th 5th (3) (8/1 +0%) Dandy's Diva	8/1(+0%)	(3) Dandy's Diva 8/1, 66/1, sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 11 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Vulnerable again kept to 5f.
6th 6th (4) (5.5/1 -57%) The Gay Blade	5.5/1(-57%)	(4) The Gay Blade 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f, good) 23 days ago, slowly away. Significantly back down in trip.
7th 7th (5) (6/1 -9%) Loose Lips	6/1(-9%)	(5) Loose Lips 6/1, Can have a line put through latest run and should have a race in him off this sort of mark.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (9) (4/1 +20%) Valley Forge	4/1(+20%)	(9) Valley Forge 4/1, Struck in the big-field Melrose Handicap at York in August. Gelded since last season and returned with a creditable fifth at Newmarket. Should be better for that and one to note up in trip.
2 2nd (7) (7.5/1 +38%) Golden Flame	7.5/1(+38%)	(7) Golden Flame 7.5/1, Notched a third success of his career at this course in September, seen to maximum effect from the front. Seemed in need of his reappearance at Newmarket and he may progress further.
3 3rd (1) (16/1 -60%) Alright Sunshine	16/1(-60%)	(1) Alright Sunshine 16/1, Useful handicapper who was back to form when third at Musselburgh last month, staying on well. This more galloping track will suit.
4 4th (11) (5.5/1 +54%) Haveyoumissedme	5.5/1(+54%)	(11) Haveyoumissedme 5.5/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps at around 12f last year prior to solid runners-up efforts at up to 2m, latterly at this course in October. Has returned in good order and might not have hit his limit.
5th 5th (10) (9/1 -50%) Goobinator	9/1(-50%)	(10) Goobinator 9/1, Dual winner last term, including over C&D. Not seen to best effect over hurdles at Newcastle 71 days ago and remains with potential in this sphere. One to consider.
6th 6th (5) (25/1 +11%) Merveillo	25/1(+11%)	(5) Merveillo 25/1, Useful performer for Christophe Ferland in France, including a Toulouse listed win last summer. Looked only averagely treated when fourth at Newbury on debut for this yard last month though and blinkers left off again.
7th 7th (8) (9/1 -6%) Miranda	9/1(-6%)	(8) Miranda 9/1, Useful hurdler but not at her best in the Imperial Cup on her latest outing in March. Tongue strap fitted and potentially well treated returning to this sphere for the first time since 2020. Interesting.
8th 8th (4) (18/1 +28%) Skycutter	18/1(+28%)	(4) Skycutter 18/1, Fairly useful winner over hurdles. Better than ever back on the level when landing 4-runner contest at Ripon in April but found things much tougher at Chester next time. Up in trip.
9th 9th (3) (12/1 +52%) Dark Jedi	12/1(+52%)	(3) Dark Jedi 12/1, Fine effort when second at Musselburgh in April but has been below his best both starts since and is unproven over this far.
10th 10th (12) (40/1 +20%) Mancini	40/1(+20%)	(12) Mancini 40/1, Has the ability to defy this sliding mark but hasn't appeared to have returned in form, so a more compelling case can be made for others.
11th 11th (6) (18/1 -100%) Just Hubert	18/1(-100%)	(6) Just Hubert 18/1, Useful handicapper who won twice last August. Not disgraced at Ascot on reappearance and return to this trip will suit, so he's a player.
12th 12th (2) (4/1 -33%) Bandinelli	4/1(-33%)	(2) Bandinelli 4/1, Progressive sort who has relished the move to this trip on his last two starts, again having something to spare at Kempton last time. Every chance of scoring again under a positive ride back here.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (2.5/1 -25%) Blackbeard	2.5/1(-25%)	(1) Blackbeard 2.5/1, No Nay Never colt who maintained 100% record when landing listed First Flier stakes (5f) here 3 weeks ago, staying on to lead post. Step up in trip a plus and he rates a player with prospect of more to come.
2 2nd (4) (1/1 +28%) Tough Talk	1/1(+28%)	(4) Tough Talk 1/1, Promising individual. Won 13-runner maiden at this C&D (good to soft, 5/2) on debut 41 days ago, knuckling down well to get on top dying strides. That form is proving strong and he's well worth his place at this higher level. Tongue tie goes on.
3 3rd (2) (5/1 +9%) Mehmar	5/1(+9%)	(2) Mehmar 5/1, £200,000 2-y-o, Mehmas colt. 13/2, second of 4 in minor event at Naas (5f, good to firm) on debut 6 days ago. Entitled to do better but this understandably tougher.
4 4th (3) (66/1 -100%) Ocean Vision	66/1(-100%)	(3) Ocean Vision 66/1, Twice-raced winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. 6/1, 6¼ lengths fourth of 5 to Blackbeard in listed race at this course (5f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time.
5th 5th (5) (8/1 -14%) Deneuve	8/1(-14%)	(5) Deneuve 8/1, No Nay Never filly. 13/8, won 9-runner maiden at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) on debut 26 days ago, responding well. Yard having good spell. Should progress.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (3/1 +25%) Majestic Dawn	3/1(+25%)	(5) Majestic Dawn 3/1, Winner of 2020 Cambridgeshire and better than ever when winning Salisbury handicap and second in Newmarket listed last autumn. Had possible excuses when well-held last of 4 on his Chester reappearance and likely to fare better now.
2 2nd (8) (5/1 +29%) West End Charmer	5/1(+29%)	(8) West End Charmer 5/1, Smart performer but doesn't see the track too often. Good third in C&D listed in September on sole 2021 start. Every chance he'll be primed for this. Respected.
3 3rd (7) (8.5/1 -42%) Stormy Antarctic	8.5/1(-42%)	(7) Stormy Antarctic 8.5/1, Multiple pattern winner over the years and showed he's still capable of smart form when winning this race on soft ground last year. Ought to be thereabouts if primed after 6 months off.
4 4th (6) (5/1 +17%) Movin Time	5/1(+17%)	(6) Movin Time 5/1, Just a Newmarket maiden win to his name so far but he has shown very useful form in defeat on his last 3 outings, leaving the impression he'd be sharper for the run when sixth of 9 in 9f Newmarket handicap on reappearance 3 weeks ago.
5th 5th (3) (5.5/1 +8%) Brentford Hope	5.5/1(+8%)	(3) Brentford Hope 5.5/1, Placed at Group 2/3 level last autumn. First start for 195 days. All 3 wins on soft/heavy so any rain in his favour. Should be in the shake-up.
6th 6th (9) (8.5/1 +23%) Ad Infinitum	8.5/1(+23%)	(9) Ad Infinitum 8.5/1, Won a soft-ground C&D listed last May on just her second start. Bettered that when 4 lengths fourth of 15 to Ville de Grace in Newmarket Group 3 final outing. This demands more but she's had only 5 starts so further progress isn't discounted.
7th 7th (4) (14/1 +0%) Father Of Jazz	14/1(+0%)	(4) Father Of Jazz 14/1, Smart gelding who has run respectably in Kempton listed and Newmarket Group 3 this spring. Won't need to raise his game too much to go close.
8th 8th (1) (11/1 -69%) Victory Chime	11/1(-69%)	(1) Victory Chime 11/1, In the form of his life last autumn, including a C&D listed success (reopposing West End Charmer length back in third). Carries a 3 lb penalty for that so he will need to be better than ever to strike on reappearance.
9th 9th (2) (50/1 -100%) Al Zaraqaan	50/1(-100%)	(2) Al Zaraqaan 50/1, Winning start for this yard in 3-runner Newcastle conditions event in January but limitations have been exposed in good company on AW since. Needs to prove he's equally as effective on the grass. Others preferred.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (3.33/1 +45%) Truely Aclaimed	3.33/1(+45%)	(4) Truely Aclaimed 3.33/1, Beverley novice winner (7.5f) as a 2-y-o who is knocking on the door in handicaps, finishing second at Newmarket (7f) 8 days ago. Up another 3 lb but still respected from a good draw. Top 7 lb claimer Harry Davies takes the ride again.
2 2nd (18) (25/1 +24%) Fiftyshadesaresdev	25/1(+24%)	(18) Fiftyshadesaresdev 25/1, Fair maiden. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (9/2) at Pontefract (1m, soft) 40 days ago. Back down in trip. Needs more.
3 3rd (6) (33/1 -50%) Al Baahy	33/1(-50%)	(6) Al Baahy 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, first run since leaving Sir Michael Stoute when respectable second of 6 in maiden at Pontefract (1m, good) on reappearance 24 days ago, clear of rest. Makes handicap debut. More needed.
4 4th (14) (40/1 -21%) Liamarty Dreams	40/1(-21%)	(14) Liamarty Dreams 40/1, No impact in 2 handicaps this spring but mark has come down as a result and he does return from 38 days off with his stable in very good form.
5th 5th (12) (20/1 +20%) Fourth Time Lucky	20/1(+20%)	(12) Fourth Time Lucky 20/1, Fair maiden. Fourth of 7 in novice at Wetherby (7f, good) 18 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap debut. Improved effort will be needed.
6th 6th (11) (7/1 +30%) Zulu Tracker	7/1(+30%)	(11) Zulu Tracker 7/1, Fair maiden. 9/1, good third of 13 in handicap at Haydock (1m, good to firm) on reappearance 28 days ago. Lightly-raced profile provides him with the potential to build on that.
7th 7th (13) (11/1 +8%) Piastrella	11/1(+8%)	(13) Piastrella 11/1, Shaped well when fourth on Beverley reappearance and that form has been franked since. Too free when stepping up to an extended 1m at Nottingham since so might be worth forgiving that. Stall 18 potentially awkward.
8th 8th (8) (4/1 +38%) Sunset And Vine	4/1(+38%)	(8) Sunset And Vine 4/1, Fairly useful form in maiden/novice events. Doesn't look entirely straightforward but it's possible a visor will help and he likely has the ability to make his presence felt from this sort of mark. Well drawn. On the shortlist.
9th 9th (15) (22/1 +21%) Bastille	22/1(+21%)	(15) Bastille 22/1, Showed ability in 3 qualifying runs over 7f/1m this spring. Potential for better in handicaps and nicely drawn in 3.
10th 10th (9) (9/1 -6%) Distant Light	9/1(-6%)	(9) Distant Light 9/1, Progressive sort who opened her account in 7f novice at Lingfield last month. Improved again when close fourth on 7f Goodwood handicap debut since. One of the more likely types.
11th 11th (19) (40/1 +0%) International Boy	40/1(+0%)	(19) International Boy 40/1, Ten-race maiden at 2, finishing well held in handicaps on his final 2 outings. Doesn't strike as an obvious winner on this reappearance run.
12th 12th (3) (8/1 +0%) Way To Win	8/1(+0%)	(3) Way To Win 8/1, Creditable efforts in 7f AW handicaps this spring and ought to be competitive if continuing in similar form back on turf.
13th 13th (20) (80/1 -60%) Herbertandflorence	80/1(-60%)	(20) Herbertandflorence 80/1, Well held in 3 handicaps over a variety of trips since joining this yard. 6 lb out of handicap. Easy to look elsewhere.
14th 14th (10) (12/1 -60%) Bin Hayyan	12/1(-60%)	(10) Bin Hayyan 12/1, Won a 6f Ayr maiden at 2 but not seen since a below-form third of 4 in 6f Thirsk nursery last July. Still early days but possibly best watched on seasonal return unless the betting vibes are strong.
15th 15th (1) (18/1 -64%) The Menstone Gem	18/1(-64%)	(1) The Menstone Gem 18/1, Fairly useful form on AW at 2. 14/1, first run since leaving Phillip Makin when fifth of 7 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good) 24 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Others preferred.
16th 16th (7) (16/1 -33%) Spitting Feathers	16/1(-33%)	(7) Spitting Feathers 16/1, 18/1, creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) on reappearance 38 days ago. Things didn't fall ideally for him on that occasion and no surprise were he to make more of an impact now.
17th 17th (5) (20/1 +0%) Sezaam	20/1(+0%)	(5) Sezaam 20/1, Redcar novice winner last year but needs to shrug off a disappointing run on his Beverley reappearance 38 days ago. Drawn wide.

1 1st (1) (5/1 -33%) Mahanakhon Power	5/1(-33%)	(1) Mahanakhon Power 5/1, Good fifth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f, 8/1) 11 days ago, nearest finish. One to consider back up in trip.
2 2nd (4) (1.62/1 +51%) Clan Jock	1.62/1(+51%)	(4) Clan Jock 1.62/1, Maiden who ran creditably on first outing since leaving Andrew Hughes after 5 months off at Hamilton (11.1f) 20 days ago and is entitled to strip a little fitter for the outing. Player.
3 3rd (7) (6.5/1 -30%) Uccello	6.5/1(-30%)	(7) Uccello 6.5/1, Unreliable type who confirmed his return to form when fourth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good to firm, 9/1) 12 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs considering.
4 4th (6) (5/1 +0%) Will He Dance	5/1(+0%)	(6) Will He Dance 5/1, Bounced back to form ridden with a bit more patience when second of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Ayr (13.1f, good) 26 days ago. Good chance with a repeat.
5th 5th (2) (10/1 -54%) Three Castles	10/1(-54%)	(2) Three Castles 10/1, Unreliable sort who was below form over C&D (good) 12 days ago, slowly away and carrying his head awkwardly. Visor back on.
6th 6th (5) (33/1 -18%) Lizzie Loch	33/1(-18%)	(5) Lizzie Loch 33/1, Poor maiden hurdler currently out of sorts, so easy enough to oppose back in this code.
7th 7th (3) (6/1 -33%) Oot Ma Way	6/1(-33%)	(3) Oot Ma Way 6/1, Fair maiden hurdler, booked for second when falling final flight last time. Modest on the Flat, below form on last outing.
8th 8th (8) (125/1 -89%) Mr Gambino	125/1(-89%)	(8) Mr Gambino 125/1, Showed no ability in varied events last season. Reappears in a change of headgear.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (8) (6/1 +33%) Whoputfiftyinyou	6/1(+33%)	(8) Whoputfiftyinyou 6/1, Represents the same connections as 2018 winner Crack On Crack On and he arrives unbeaten having made it 3-3 in 7f Newbury handicap at the Greenham meeting. Should be more to come now stepping up to 1m.
2 2nd (1) (1.62/1 +1%) Mighty Ulysses	1.62/1(+1%)	(1) Mighty Ulysses 1.62/1, Winner of 2 of his 3 starts, showing smart form when easily defying a penalty in 1m Newmarket novice 8 days ago. More to come and can make light of top weight on this handicap debut.
3 3rd (2) (7/1 +36%) Outgate	7/1(+36%)	(2) Outgate 7/1, Successful twice as a 2-y-o and has improved again this season, second in big-field 1m event at Newmarket's Craven meeting before going one better at Chester 16 days ago. 5 lb rise unlikely to prevent him giving another good account.
4 4th (3) (18/1 +10%) Oh Herberts Reign	18/1(+10%)	(3) Oh Herberts Reign 18/1, Three-time winner as a juvenile and 2 solid runs this season, getting chinned on the line over C&D (good to soft) latterly. Hard to argue he has much in hand of his mark but he's likely to give his running again.
5th 5th (7) (11/1 +8%) Tollard Royal	11/1(+8%)	(7) Tollard Royal 11/1, Successful on 2 of his 3 starts in novices, returning from 6 months off to score by 2½ lengths at Beverley (extended 1m, good to firm) 28 days ago. Hood worn on that occasion retained. Opening handicap mark not obviously generous but he has the potential for better.
6th 6th (10) (8.5/1 -113%) Mister Wilson	8.5/1(-113%)	(10) Mister Wilson 8.5/1, First run for this yard when returning from a winter break to finish a very good second of 10 in 7f Naas handicap in March. Had 11 starts so others certainly less exposed but it is possible he could have more to offer for this stable.
7th 7th (4) (33/1 -18%) Ring Of Beara	33/1(-18%)	(4) Ring Of Beara 33/1, Looked potentially very useful at 2 but he does need to shrug off a disappointing run in Esher Cup at Sandown on last month's reappearance.
8th 8th (9) (12/1 +33%) City Runner	12/1(+33%)	(9) City Runner 12/1, Improved for fitting of blinkers/increase in trip, taking a Southwell handicap in January and good runner-up efforts twice since (Esher Cup at Sandown latterly, with re-opposing Oh Herberts Reign back in fourth).
9th 9th (6) (8.5/1 +23%) Spirit Catcher	8.5/1(+23%)	(6) Spirit Catcher 8.5/1, Saw off Dirtyoldtown by ½-length when making a winning handicap debut/reappearance at Musselburgh (1m, good to soft) in April. Could only match that form when third at Newmarket since but didn't look entirely at ease on the track so it's possible he'll resume his progression here. Considered.
10th 10th (5) (18/1 -64%) Dirtyoldtown	18/1(-64%)	(5) Dirtyoldtown 18/1, Novice winner for George Boughey last autumn and made a very good start for his new stable when ½-length second of 10 to re-opposing Spirit Catcher at Musselburgh (1m) over Easter. That form has been franked and he's much respected up 2 lb.

5th 5th (4) (14/1 -56%) Gustavus Weston	14/1(-56%)	(4) Gustavus Weston 14/1, Smart gelding. 3-time C&D winner. Looked rusty after 6 months off when sixth of 7 to Romantic Proposal in listed race (8/1) at Naas (5f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Not discounted.
6th 6th (7) (3.33/1 +5%) Power Under Me	3.33/1(+5%)	(7) Power Under Me 3.33/1, Smart gelding. Landed 10-runner listed race at Cork (6f, good to soft, 5/2) 48 days ago by neck from Mooneista. Yard having good spell. C&D winner too, so he's likely to continue in form.
7th 7th (5) (150/1 -50%) Majestic Colt	150/1(-50%)	(5) Majestic Colt 150/1, Smart horse. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, 6 lengths fifth of 7 to Brostaigh in listed race at Naas (5f, good to firm, 33/1) 6 days ago. Something to find on form.
8th 8th (8) (50/1 -150%) Urban Beat	50/1(-150%)	(8) Urban Beat 50/1, Smart gelding. C&D winner. 6¼ lengths eighth of 9 to The Highway Rat in Mercury Stakes at Dundalk (5f, 17/2). Off 7 months with work to do.

2 2nd (6) (3.33/1 +17%) Surrey Gold	3.33/1(+17%)	(6) Surrey Gold 3.33/1, Progressive sort who signed off for 2021 with 14f win in handicap at York in October. He can't be discounted on his reappearance.
3 3rd (7) (4.5/1 +0%) Secret Shadow	4.5/1(+0%)	(7) Secret Shadow 4.5/1, Ended 2021 very much on the up, well on top at the finish when landing 13f handicap at Newbury in October. That form worked out very well, so she merits serious consideration on her reappearance.
4 4th (8) (9/1 -80%) Ravens Ark	9/1(-80%)	(8) Ravens Ark 9/1, Back to winning ways after 8 months off in 13f handicap at Lingfield 14 days ago. This is tougher, so more is required from 3 lb higher mark.
5th 5th (9) (16/1 -14%) Dancing Harry	16/1(-14%)	(9) Dancing Harry 16/1, Off 6 months/had wind op before good second of 6 in handicap at Nottingham (14f) 25 days ago. Bit more needed from 1 lb out of the handicap.
6th 6th (1) (12/1 +14%) Morando	12/1(+14%)	(1) Morando 12/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2019, but he signed off last term with good third in St Simon Stakes at Newbury (12f) 7 months ago. Yard going well, so he's not discounted on his seasonal return.
7th 7th (2) (20/1 -11%) Cardano	20/1(-11%)	(2) Cardano 20/1, Fairly useful winner on the level who wasn't disgraced over hurdles when last seen out in December. Tongue strap on, and he's no forlorn hope.
8th 8th (5) (3/1 +10%) Oman	3/1(+10%)	(5) Oman 3/1, Resumed with excellent second of 4 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f) 20 days ago. Not taken lightly off an unchanged mark.

7th 7th (4) (12/1 -50%) Night On Earth	12/1(-50%)	(4) Night On Earth 12/1, Latest win at Lingfield in April. Third of 5 in minor event (14/1) at Chester (5.1f, good) 15 days ago. Pacey sort with a promising claimer on board, so could make his presence felt.

Not seen since but remains a smart colt in the making.
1 1st (4) (3.5/1 +0%) El Caballo	3.5/1(+0%)	(4) El Caballo 3.5/1, Progressive colt who took his form to another level when completing 5-timer in 3 Year Old All-Weather Championships at Newcastle (6f) 5 weeks ago, pulling clear with subsequent listed winner Tiber Flow. Leading player on that form back on turf.
2 2nd (6) (5.5/1 -22%) Flaming Rib	5.5/1(-22%)	(6) Flaming Rib 5.5/1, Smart sprinter who wasn't seen to best effect in Greenham Stakes at Newbury (7f) on return but quickly back on track when winning against his elders in class 3 at Chester (5f) 2 weeks ago. This track should suit and high on shortlist.
3 3rd (9) (12/1 +33%) Wings Of War	12/1(+33%)	(9) Wings Of War 12/1, Likeable colt who doubled his tally with a gutsy success in the Mill Reef at Newbury in September. Shaped as if needing the run under a penalty when 4 lengths last of 4 to Go Bears Go in Pavilion Stakes at Ascot on return. Better expected now in first-time headgear but Kirby prefers Caturra.
4 4th (8) (2.25/1 +0%) Go Bears Go	2.25/1(+0%)	(8) Go Bears Go 2.25/1, Smart colt who progressed again when a commanding winner of Group 2 Railway Stakes last summer. Held form well subsequently, runner-up in the Breeders' Cup Juvenile Sprint final 2-y-o start. Made winning return in 4-runner Group 3 at Ascot last month and sure to make another bold bid.
5th 5th (2) (7.5/1 +25%) Caturra	7.5/1(+25%)	(2) Caturra 7.5/1, Got better with each start at 2 yrs, running down Armor in the Flying Childers at Doncaster before beaten just over a length (neck behind Go Bears Go) when fifth in Middle Park at Newmarket. Good second in Group 3 at Chantilly on return and needs considering.
6th 6th (10) (50/1 +0%) Tippy Toes	50/1(+0%)	(10) Tippy Toes 50/1, Useful filly who completed AW hat-trick in listed event at Chelmsford on return last month but all to do at this level back on turf.
7th 7th (3) (100/1 +20%) Edward Cornelius	100/1(+20%)	(3) Edward Cornelius 100/1, Useful form when winning 9-runner handicap at Thirsk (5f, soft, 7/1) on return and backed that up when second of 4 in class 2 at Hamilton. Firmly up against it at this level, however.
8th 8th (5) (5/1 +58%) Ever Given	5/1(+58%)	(5) Ever Given 5/1, Had a highly productive 2-y-o campaign for Tom Dascombe, the highlight of which was his victory in a valuable sales race at the York Ebor meeting. Looked better than ever when making a winning return in Chester handicap, albeit seen to maximum effect. Will find things a fair bit tougher this time.
9th 9th (7) (50/1 -52%) Gis A Sub	50/1(-52%)	(7) Gis A Sub 50/1, Pontefract winner last year and best run when second to Lusail in the Gimcrack at York. Low-key return at Hamilton, however, and others preferred.
10th 10th (11) (50/1 -52%) Vertiginous	50/1(-52%)	(11) Vertiginous 50/1, Seemed to relish the drop back to 5f when off the mark in listed race at Ayr in September and backed that up when 1¾ lengths seventh of 12 to Twilight Gleaming in Grade 2 Breeders' Cup Juvenile Turf Sprint at Del Mar (5f, firm) final start. Opposable in this company at 6f on return, however.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (7) (0.4/1 +0%) Native Trail	0.4/1(+0%)	(7) Native Trail 0.4/1, Won first 5 starts, including Group 1 National here last autumn, and if anything enhanced his reputation in defeat when going down by ¾ length to stablemate Coroebus in a strong renewal of the 2000 Guineas at Newmarket 3 weeks ago. Very hard to beat.
2 2nd (8) (40/1 +50%) New Energy	40/1(+50%)	(8) New Energy 40/1, Course winner. Good 4 lengths third of 7 to Buckaroo in C&D listed race (good to soft, 15/2) 19 days ago, but no reason why he'll turn the tables on Joseph O'Brien's charge.
3 3rd (4) (28/1 -12%) Imperial Fighter	28/1(-12%)	(4) Imperial Fighter 28/1, Impressed when making a winning debut at Goodwood (7f) last July and better form in defeat since, notably when chasing home Coroebus in 1m Newmarket Group 3 last autumn. Met trouble and better than result when third on AW reappearance. Place claims.
4 4th (9) (25/1 +11%) Wexford Native	25/1(+11%)	(9) Wexford Native 25/1, Navan debut winner in March. Bettered that when 4 lengths second of 7 to Buckaroo in C&D listed (good to soft) 19 days ago. Surely has more to offer after only 2 starts. Represents last year's winning connections.
5th 5th (3) (50/1 +0%) Duke De Sessa	50/1(+0%)	(3) Duke De Sessa 50/1, Useful colt. C&D winner. 9¼ lengths fifth of 7 to Stone Age in Derby Trial Stakes (5/1) at Leopardstown (1¼m, good to soft) 13 days ago. Not sure drop back to 1m is what is needed.
6th 6th (2) (3/1 +33%) Buckaroo	3/1(+33%)	(2) Buckaroo 3/1, Smart colt. Good short-head second of 9 to Piz Badile in Ballysax at Leopardstown (1¼m, good) on return before easily going one better in C&D listed race 19 days ago. Could be the one to follow Native Trail home.
7th 7th (5) (18/1 -50%) Ivy League	18/1(-50%)	(5) Ivy League 18/1, Improving fast this spring, winning maiden/handicap before taking another step forward when 1¾ lengths second of 6 to Pretreville in Amethyst at Leopardstown (1m, good to soft) 13 days ago. Tongue strap goes on. Capable of better again.
8th 8th (6) (100/1 -52%) Malex	100/1(-52%)	(6) Malex 100/1, Course debut winner over 7f in March and stepped up on that form when 6 lengths fourth to Buckaroo in C&D listed race 19 days ago. Blinkered first time. More to come but big jolt of improvement required to get heavily involved.
9th 9th (1) (40/1 -60%) Atomic Jones	40/1(-60%)	(1) Atomic Jones 40/1, Won both juvenile starts (Group 2 latterly). 11/1, 9 lengths fourth of 7 to Stone Age in Derby Trial Stakes at Leopardstown (1¼m, good to soft) on reappearance 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Drop back to 1m may help. Remains capable of better.

2 2nd (6) (12/1 +40%) Something Enticing	12/1(+40%)	(6) Something Enticing 12/1, Form really took off at the end of last year for the now-retired David Elsworth and she shaped better than the bare result back in a handicap at Kempton on return/yard debut. Faces a stiffer task back at this level but may still have more to offer.
3 3rd (3) (0.73/1 +0%) Lone Eagle	0.73/1(+0%)	(3) Lone Eagle 0.73/1, Very smart colt. Won course listed event before neck second to Hurricane Lane in Irish Derby. Last of 5 in King George VI and Queen Elizabeth Diamond Stakes when last seen, but he's the one to beat taking a marked drop in grade on return.
4 4th (1) (6/1 +8%) Calling The Wind	6/1(+8%)	(1) Calling The Wind 6/1, Smart and consistent gelding who posted some excellent efforts in high-end handicaps in 2021. Shaped as if retaining all his ability on his Doncaster reappearance run and seems highly likely to run well.
5th 5th (2) (20/1 -67%) Global Heat	20/1(-67%)	(2) Global Heat 20/1, Unreliable type who typically give his running when third in 5-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 4 weeks ago, though at the same time showed why he has a poor strike rate.

2 2nd (7) (4/1 +27%) Urban Artist	4/1(+27%)	(7) Urban Artist 4/1, Useful mare. Modest eighth of 13 to Goolwa in listed race at Bath (14f) when last seen out 7 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running on her return.
3 3rd (3) (7/1 -17%) Glenartney	7/1(-17%)	(3) Glenartney 7/1, Useful filly. 17/2, respectable 5 lengths fourth of 7 to Bartzella in listed race at Goodwood (12f, good to firm) 22 days ago. Faces a stiff task here, though.
4 4th (4) (3.2/1 +20%) Mighty Blue	3.2/1(+20%)	(4) Mighty Blue 3.2/1, Useful Irish mare. Respectable 3 lengths third of 11 to Yaxeni in listed race at Gowran (13.8f, good to soft, 7/2) 17 days ago. Considered.
5th 5th (6) (3.2/1 +9%) Silence Please	3.2/1(+9%)	(6) Silence Please 3.2/1, Useful mare. Off 7 months/first run since leaving Jessica Harrington when 4 lengths third of 7 to Bartzella in listed race at Goodwood (12f) 22 days ago, badly hampered under 2f out. Visor back on and merits serious consideration.
6th 6th (5) (22/1 +12%) Sea Sylph	22/1(+12%)	(5) Sea Sylph 22/1, Fairly useful filly. 4/1, creditable second of 5 in handicap at Doncaster (16.5f, good) 21 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Difficult ask in this grade.

2 2nd (7) (2/1 +40%) Vindobala	2/1(+40%)	(7) Vindobala 2/1, Latest win at Newcastle in February. Unlucky third of 15 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm, 14/1) 13 days ago, finishing strongly having found trouble for the majority of the straight. Can make amends off same mark.
3 3rd (9) (12/1 +0%) Alpine Sierra	12/1(+0%)	(9) Alpine Sierra 12/1, Twice placed in maidens for Dermot Weld last term and ran to similar level on first 2 outings for new yard this year. Disappointed both starts since, however.
4 4th (3) (4.5/1 +47%) Tilsitt	4.5/1(+47%)	(3) Tilsitt 4.5/1, Won 3 times in 2021 and ran well up to his best on return, beaten only a nose at Ayr (1m). Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm, 16/1) 13 days ago.
5th 5th (4) (8.5/1 -21%) War Defender	8.5/1(-21%)	(4) War Defender 8.5/1, Latest win at Newcastle in January. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good, 10/3) 31 days ago. Down in trip.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (5/1 +17%) King's Lynn	5/1(+17%)	(5) King's Lynn 5/1, Smart and likeable sprinter who landed a brace of listed contests last season, the first over C&D. Returned with a good second in small-field conditions event at Chester 15 days ago and is likely to be sharper for the run. Considered.
2 2nd (8) (5/1 +29%) Twilight Calls	5/1(+29%)	(8) Twilight Calls 5/1, Low-mileage sprinter who returned from 8 months off/gelded with a career-best when quickening up smartly to win 5f Newmarket handicap in April. Ran to a similar level in Group 3 there 3 weeks ago but needs a bit more at this level.
3 3rd (2) (28/1 +0%) Arecibo	28/1(+0%)	(2) Arecibo 28/1, Has been transformed from frustrating handicapper to Group-1 placed (2nd in King's Stand) in 2021 for new connections. Shaped as if needing the run in Palace House Stakes at Newmarket and this could give a better indication of how his season will go. Cheekpieces back on.
4 4th (6) (25/1 +50%) Mondammej	25/1(+50%)	(6) Mondammej 25/1, Successful 5 times in 2021 but looked outclassed as much as anything in Palace House Stakes at Newmarket (5f, good) 3 weeks ago.
5th 5th (4) (14/1 -17%) Existent	14/1(-17%)	(4) Existent 14/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps on the AW at the beginning of the year and was back on the up when just denied in the Palace House Stakes at Newmarket (5f, good) 3 weeks ago, nearest finish. Had fitness on his side that day but should give another good account.
6th 6th (9) (9/1 +64%) White Lavender	9/1(+64%)	(9) White Lavender 9/1, Bounced back to best on first run since leaving Joseph G. Murphy when winning 15-runner listed race at Bath (5f, good to soft, 12/1) 37 days ago. This is a whole lot tougher, though.
7th 7th (7) (9/1 +36%) Moss Gill	9/1(+36%)	(7) Moss Gill 9/1, Smart gelding who ended last season with an excellent second in Newbury Group 3 and goes well fresh, so each-way claims on return.
8th 8th (10) (3.5/1 -86%) Winter Power	3.5/1(-86%)	(10) Winter Power 3.5/1, Very smart filly who took her form up a couple of notches when landing the Nunthorpe at York in August. Disappointing after but she'll take plenty of beating if back to her best on return.
9th 9th (11) (4.5/1 +44%) Last Crusader	4.5/1(+44%)	(11) Last Crusader 4.5/1, Well-made colt who was all the better for his reappearance when taking 5f York listed event in good style last week. That was only his first try at the minimum trip, so he's an interesting contender back up in grade.
10th 10th (3) (12/1 -85%) Came From The Dark	12/1(-85%)	(3) Came From The Dark 12/1, Won 2 of his 4 starts last season, including Sandown Group 3. Offered little in Palace House Stakes at Newmarket on return however, and needs to leave that well behind.

1 1st (7) (6.5/1 +7%) Haseefah	6.5/1(+7%)	(7) Haseefah 6.5/1, Ex-French 1m2f winner who ran with credit on each of his 3 starts on Flat upon joining present yard last year. Didn't kick on from hurdles debut victory thereafter in that sphere but made a winning return to the Flat at Chester 2 weeks ago, albeit seen to advantage in front.
2 2nd (9) (3.5/1 +30%) Speak	3.5/1(+30%)	(9) Speak 3.5/1, Made winning debut at Kempton last summer and not disgraced when 11¾ lengths fifth of 6 to Inspiral in May Hill Stakes. Just a fair fourth on reappearance in novice company and opening mark demands more.
3 3rd (3) (4.5/1 -29%) Crema Inglesa	4.5/1(-29%)	(3) Crema Inglesa 4.5/1, Gained third success of 2021 at Sandown (10f, heavy) in September and had no problem with 12f when runner-up at Newmarket following month.

4 4th (2) (16/1 -14%) Vindolanda	16/1(-14%)	(2) Vindolanda 16/1, Defied a mark of 81 at Ascot last summer and acquitted herself well off higher marks later in the season. Needed reappearance for last 2 seasons, however.
5th 5th (5) (8/1 +27%) Hyanna	8/1(+27%)	(5) Hyanna 8/1, Signs of decline last season and latest fifth at Windsor on return was just respectable. Mark continues to slide at least.
6th 6th (1) (12/1 -33%) Goldie Hawk	12/1(-33%)	(1) Goldie Hawk 12/1, Took form to another level when scoring in good style at Haydock last summer but failed to make an impact at listed level next 2 starts. Career best probably required to defy current mark on return.
7th 7th (4) (4.5/1 +36%) Percy's Pride	4.5/1(+36%)	(4) Percy's Pride 4.5/1, Won 3 times last year and wasn't disgraced in a listed event at Bath on her final outing. Ran to similar level when fourth at Doncaster on return and probably needs to find bit more to defy current mark.
8th 8th (10) (5/1 -25%) Candy Kitchen	5/1(-25%)	(10) Candy Kitchen 5/1, Improved form stepped up in trip and switched to handicaps this season, building on comeback when decisive winner at Windsor 12 days ago. Of interest again.

7th 7th (1) (33/1 -50%) Dyed In The Wool	33/1(-50%)	(1) Dyed In The Wool 33/1, Has seemed in need of experience on both starts to date and will probably be more of a nursery type.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (9) (18/1 +0%) Kape Moss	18/1(+0%)	(9) Kape Moss 18/1, Seen to good effect from the front in a slowly-run race when successful at Newcastle in December. Reappearance effort was fair, but subsequent Ascot display left much to be desired.
2 2nd (5) (40/1 -400%) Angle Land	40/1(-400%)	(5) Angle Land 40/1, Below par back form a break at Nottingham last month, but returned to form when just about making all for a narrow success at Lingfield (5f, AW) recently, just holding on from Level Up. Worth considering, for all that a 5 lb rise demands more.
3 3rd (3) (12/1 -9%) Sows	12/1(-9%)	(3) Sows 12/1, Performed well above market expectations (sent off at 200/1) when fifth in a 15-runner Listed event on return/debut for new yard at Bath (5f, good to soft). Her mark has suffered as a consequence of that improved effort, though.
4 4th (4) (3/1 +10%) Mr Beaufort	3/1(+10%)	(4) Mr Beaufort 3/1, Promise both starts at 2 yrs and, gelded during the winter, he narrowly landed the odds in a first-time hood (discarded here) on return in a 5f Wolverhampton maiden. Mark for this handicap bow looks fair and he's one to consider.
5th 5th (10) (18/1 -157%) Level Up	18/1(-157%)	(10) Level Up 18/1, Yet to get his head in front, but went close to doing so when beaten a head by Angle Land at Lingfield (5f, AW) recently. 1 lb better off with that rival now and he needs considering.
6th 6th (2) (14/1 -17%) Glamorous Express	14/1(-17%)	(2) Glamorous Express 14/1, Strong at the finish when nailing Mr Beaufort close home in a Bath novice (5f, good) on final 2-y-o start in October (gelded since). However, on a stiff-looking mark back in handicap company. Hood applied.
7th 7th (8) (3.33/1 +26%) Sir Henry Cotton	3.33/1(+26%)	(8) Sir Henry Cotton 3.33/1, Hit the target twice on the AW in March and continued the good work returned to turf when just touched off over C&D (good to firm) three weeks ago. 2 lb rise for that near-miss is fair and he's a big player.
8th 8th (12) (12/1 -20%) Bonita B	12/1(-20%)	(12) Bonita B 12/1, Opened her account at Wolverhampton (5f) in January and doubled her tally over 6f there 12 days ago, quickening to get on top close home. Nudged up just 2 lb and while she's 0-16 on turf, another bold show could be on the way.
9th 9th (7) (4/1 +33%) Income	4/1(+33%)	(7) Income 4/1, Showed ability in three starts as a juvenile and opened her account in a Lingfield novice (6f, AW) during the winter. Runner-up off this mark on handicap debut back from a break at Kempton (5f) in March and she's one to consider.
10th 10th (1) (12/1 +0%) Arboy Will	12/1(+0%)	(1) Arboy Will 12/1, Winner of a Windsor novice and Lingfield nursery last season, both at 5f. Creditable third on return at Sandown, but failed to build on that over this C&D next time and he looks vulnerable under top-weight.
11th 11th (11) (10/1 +38%) Mega Marvel	10/1(+38%)	(11) Mega Marvel 10/1, Off the mark in 6f Newcastle novice in November and reappearance/handicap debut fourth at Doncaster was encouraging. However, step in the wrong direction at Ascot since and others preferred.

3 3rd (3) (4.5/1 -64%) Maplewood	4.5/1(-64%)	(3) Maplewood 4.5/1, Progressive Oasis Dream gelding who readily landed 9-runner minor event at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 6/4) 19 days ago. Has more to offer now going into handicaps, so not ruled out for top yard.
4 4th (4) (4.5/1 +55%) Bullet Force	4.5/1(+55%)	(4) Bullet Force 4.5/1, 14/1, very good second of 6 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 21 days ago, sticking to task. Enters calculations despite 3 lb rise.

6th 6th (5) (10/1 +44%) Far Away Thoughts	10/1(+44%)	(5) Far Away Thoughts 10/1, Winner at Lingfield in November. 1/6, second of 3 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW), finding less than looked likely. Off 112 days with more needed on his handicap debut.
7th 7th (7) (33/1 -18%) True Warfare	33/1(-18%)	(7) True Warfare 33/1, Winner at Southwell in December. 9/4, below-par fifth of 11 in minor event at Redcar (8f, good) 33 days ago. More required now going handicapping.
8th 8th (1) (6.5/1 -30%) Blenheim Boy	6.5/1(-30%)	(1) Blenheim Boy 6.5/1, 15/2, career best when landing 7-runner handicap at Ripon (8f, heavy) 37 days ago with plenty in hand. Course winner too, so he's well in the mix despite 10 lb rise.
9th 9th (2) (14/1 +0%) Vaccine	14/1(+0%)	(2) Vaccine 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. 7/1, very good second of 9 in nursery at Ayr (8f, good). Off 8 months but can't be discounted for his in-form yard.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (7) (3.33/1 +33%) Ascot Adventure	3.33/1(+33%)	(7) Ascot Adventure 3.33/1, Won on debut in Ireland in summer 2020 and off the mark for Clive Cox in a 6f Salisbury handicap (heavy) in September. Ran well to prove himself at the trip when a close fourth on return at Doncaster and he may build on that effort here.
2 2nd (9) (8/1 -45%) Asad	8/1(-45%)	(9) Asad 8/1, Lightly raced for his age and returned better than ever after 6 months off to score at Chelmsford last month, all out to hold on. Represents an excellent yard and just as effective on turf, he may have a say in proceedings under top apprentice.
3 3rd (6) (33/1 -106%) Russco	33/1(-106%)	(6) Russco 33/1, Thrived as a 3-y-o and completed a five-timer at Chepstow (6f) in September. Poorly drawn at this track (6f) on his final start and can't be discounted on his return.
4 4th (8) (6.5/1 +19%) Mossbawn	6.5/1(+19%)	(8) Mossbawn 6.5/1, Progressed well last year with 3 wins over 7f and resumed with very good third at Redcar last month. Sent off 4/1 joint-favourite but something clearly wasn't right at York last week so he's worth another chance to build on his return effort.
5th 5th (2) (10/1 +17%) Cold Stare	10/1(+17%)	(2) Cold Stare 10/1, C&D winner last year who goes particularly well with cut in the ground. Reappearance effort offered encouragement at Doncaster (finished with running left) but he was unable to build on that 6 weeks later at Thirsk. Interesting now just 1 lb higher than his last winning mark.
6th 6th (5) (22/1 +0%) Gweedore	22/1(+0%)	(5) Gweedore 22/1, Likeable type who resumed with career-best win in 7f handicap (10/1) at Musselburgh last month. Not in the same form at Hamilton since and needs to get back on track if he's to feature.
7th 7th (12) (5.5/1 +0%) Earls	5.5/1(+0%)	(12) Earls 5.5/1, Fairly reliable performer who ran up to best on first start for this yard when runner-up in a big-field event at Naas a fortnight ago. Will need to step forward again but this sole Irish-raider warrants respect.
8th 8th (1) (11/1 -69%) Paws For Thought	11/1(-69%)	(1) Paws For Thought 11/1, Came agonisingly close to making the perfect start for his new yard at Chester earlier this month, headed on the line but doing well under the circumstances given he was up with the strong gallop throughout. 5 lb rise for that near miss.
9th 9th (11) (50/1 -79%) Ugo Gregory	50/1(-79%)	(11) Ugo Gregory 50/1, Won 4 times in 2021 but not much to shout about on both outings this season, unable to land any sort of blow at York last week. Needs more help from the assessor before becoming of interest.
10th 10th (4) (3.5/1 +36%) Kingmania	3.5/1(+36%)	(4) Kingmania 3.5/1, Fast improving filly who completed the hat-trick at Doncaster (7f) last June. Too keen on her return to action when finishing down the field over 1m at this venue 4 weeks ago but she remains with potential and it's much too soon to be writing her off.
11th 11th (10) (50/1 +0%) Muntadab	50/1(+0%)	(10) Muntadab 50/1, Shaped as if very much in need of the run after 6 months off on return at Redcar last month and possibly still needed the outing at York since. Four-time winner in 2021 and down another 2 lb, he's worth a second look.
12th 12th (13) (14/1 +36%) Uncle Jumbo	14/1(+36%)	(13) Uncle Jumbo 14/1, Winless since his debut as a 2-y-o but did shape well initially upon returning for Kevin Ryan last spring. Failed to kick on thereafter but did step forward on his reappearance/yard debut when fifth over C&D a fortnight ago (albeit hung badly left). Place claims at best.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (2.5/1 +38%) Tawtheef	2.5/1(+38%)	(5) Tawtheef 2.5/1, Won 10-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 11/1) when last seen in December. Nudged up just 2 lb, it's not hard to envisage this 5-y-o playing a part in the finish here.
2 2nd (6) (3.2/1 +42%) London	3.2/1(+42%)	(6) London 3.2/1, Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 7/1) 7 days ago. Now 0-10, but has shown enough to believe there's a race to be won with her and she's an each-way player.
3 3rd (4) (16/1 -14%) Carmela Soprano	16/1(-14%)	(4) Carmela Soprano 16/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in February. 12/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 7 days ago, met some trouble. Capable of making an impact off this mark, but she's rather in-and-out.
4 4th (1) (5.5/1 -65%) Bbob Alula	5.5/1(-65%)	(1) Bbob Alula 5.5/1, Untrustworthy individual. Course winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 10-runner handicap at Brighton (8f, good to firm, 8/1) 24 days ago. Back up in trip and more will be needed off this 4 lb higher mark.
5th 5th (3) (3.5/1 +0%) Too Shy Shy	3.5/1(+0%)	(3) Too Shy Shy 3.5/1, Course winner. Twenty-three runs since last win in 2020. 22/1, good fourth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 22 days ago, left poorly placed. 1 lb lower now and could be about to snap her losing run.
6th 6th (2) (5/1 -11%) Uther Pendragon	5/1(-11%)	(2) Uther Pendragon 5/1, Two wins from 52 Flat runs. 11/4, third of 4 in handicap at Bath (11.6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once again, but his AW strike rate (0-23) is off-putting from a win point of view.
7th 7th (8) (80/1 -21%) Blairlogie	80/1(-21%)	(8) Blairlogie 80/1, Remains a maiden after 27 Flat runs. 66/1, tenth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f). Off 115 days and significantly back up in trip. Best to look elsewhere.

24th 24th (10) (40/1 +0%) Higher Kingdom	40/1(+0%)	(10) Higher Kingdom 40/1, Not disgraced when fifth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good to firm, 7/1). Off 10 months. First run for yard after leaving David O'Meara. Market check advised.

2 2nd (6) (10/1 -11%) Party Island	10/1(-11%)	(6) Party Island 10/1, C&D winner. Five wins from 19 Flat runs. Sixth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, respectable on last Flat outing. Considered.
3 3rd (2) (2.5/1 +0%) Mercian Hymn	2.5/1(+0%)	(2) Mercian Hymn 2.5/1, Latest win at Kempton in December. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Windsor (10f, good to firm, 13/2) 26 days ago. Leading claims.

1 1st (2) (2.75/1 +8%) Light N Strike	2.75/1(+8%)	(2) Light N Strike 2.75/1, Wide-margin winner at Plumpton back from a break last month and surely would've finished closer but for hitting the third-last at Kempton (2¼m, good) recently. Big player off the same mark.
2 2nd (1) (1.8/1 +10%) Give Me A Moment	1.8/1(+10%)	(1) Give Me A Moment 1.8/1, Enhanced good strike rate over fences when getting the better of dual subsequent winner Clear The Runway at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to firm) last month. 6 lb rise fair and another bold show on the cards.
3 3rd (3) (12/1 -41%) Vision Des Flos	12/1(-41%)	(3) Vision Des Flos 12/1, Returned to form when bagging handicap chases from the front at Uttoxeter and Warwick in September. However, pulled up on his last two starts and opposable back from a six-month break.
4 4th (5) (22/1 -120%) Due Reward	22/1(-120%)	(5) Due Reward 22/1, Useful hurdler/chaser on his day in Ireland, but profile is rather hit and miss and he was pulled up back from a break on first appearance following a wind op at Aintree last month.
5th 5th (6) (8/1 +11%) Fat Sam	8/1(+11%)	(6) Fat Sam 8/1, Won three times over fences between July and October last year, including over this C&D. Shaped as though in need of the run back from a break when last in a 4-runner Fontwell handicap and better can be expected here.
\|F\| \|F\| (7) (8/1 +11%) Lost In Montmartre	8/1(+11%)	(7) Lost In Montmartre 8/1, Well suited by quick ground when opening chase account at Hereford in October. Possibly needed the run back from a six-month absence at Ludlow recently, but looks vulnerable here from 3 lb out of the handicap.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (4) (5/1 +9%) Fanzio	5/1(+9%)	(4) Fanzio 5/1, Not the most consistent of performers, but he stopped the slide when third in a Class 2 Perth handicap (20.1f, soft) last month. Down another 2 lb and he's 2-3 at this course, so there's cause for optimism.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (5.5/1 +15%) Nietzsche's Star	5.5/1(+15%)	(5) Nietzsche's Star 5.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 13 in minor event (33/1) at Newbury (7f, good). Off 8 months ahead of this handicap debut and needs to take a sizeable step forward, but he's in good hands and has been gelded since latest start.
2 2nd (3) (5.5/1 -57%) Major Gatsby	5.5/1(-57%)	(3) Major Gatsby 5.5/1, Three wins from 5 runs this year. Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 10/3) 32 days ago, digging deep. 3 lb rise fair enough and couldn't rule out in current form, albeit return to turf is a concern (0-4 on grass).
3 3rd (11) (2.25/1 +68%) Clipsham Gold	2.25/1(+68%)	(11) Clipsham Gold 2.25/1, Hooded for 1st time, twelfth of 13 in nursery at Southwell (8.1f, 9/1), slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Michael Appleby and opposable back from a 165-day absence.
4 4th (1) (8/1 -78%) Baileys Liberty	8/1(-78%)	(1) Baileys Liberty 8/1, Good third of 9 in handicap on the AW course here (7f, 18/1) 11 days ago. 1 lb lower now and a reproduction of that effort will put her firmly in the picture now returned to turf.
5th 5th (6) (16/1 +52%) Hines	16/1(+52%)	(6) Hines 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in minor event (100/1) at Newbury (8f, heavy). Off 7 months and it's hard to envisage him making an impact on this handicap debut.
6th 6th (9) (14/1 +13%) Juanita	14/1(+13%)	(9) Juanita 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 14 in minor event on the AW course here (7f, 16/1). Off 6 months and good deal more required now that she ventures down the handicap route.
7th 7th (7) (3.5/1 +36%) Renegade Rose	3.5/1(+36%)	(7) Renegade Rose 3.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good fourth of 9 in handicap on the AW course here (7f, 18/1) 11 days ago. Will be a threat if handling conditions back on turf (conditions were testing when runner-up on sole previous turf start).
8th 8th (4) (20/1 +0%) Romantic Memories	20/1(+0%)	(4) Romantic Memories 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 13 in handicap (22/1) at Bath (8f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Needs to raise her game.
9th 9th (8) (66/1 -313%) True Force	66/1(-313%)	(8) True Force 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in handicap on the AW course here (7f) 11 days ago. Others more persuasive.
10th 10th (10) (18/1 +36%) Nooo More	18/1(+36%)	(10) Nooo More 18/1, 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 10 in minor event at Leicester (6f, heavy). Off 6 months/gelded and up in trip here. Readily passed over.
11th 11th (12) (28/1 -12%) Just An Inkling	28/1(-12%)	(12) Just An Inkling 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 14 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good, 16/1) 40 days ago, slowly away. Hopes pinned on first-time headgear combination of cheekpieces and a hood sparking some improvement.

By no means disgraced when fifth in a competitive 16-runner Haydock handicap (24.3f, good to soft) a fortnight ago and definite chance off 1 lb lower here.
2 2nd (3) (14/1 +0%) Ennistown	14/1(+0%)	(3) Ennistown 14/1, Won a Fakenham hunter chase in March 2021 and this veteran proved that some ability remains when fourth of six back hurdling at Newton Abbot (26.5f, good). Now 3 lb lower and should make his presence felt.
3 3rd (4) (0.83/1 -24%) Arthur's Seat	0.83/1(-24%)	(4) Arthur's Seat 0.83/1, Useful dual bumper winner for Keith Dalgleish in 2020/21. Placed on four of his six starts since switched to hurdles, just touched off upped to 26.6f at Perth (soft) last month, and may well go one better here with cheekpieces/tongue strap enlisted.
4 4th (2) (10/1 -18%) Ratfacemcdougall	10/1(-18%)	(2) Ratfacemcdougall 10/1, Healthy strike rate in this sphere (7-22), but he has plenty to prove following a string of poor efforts.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (2) (2/1 +20%) Elsals	2/1(+20%)	(2) Elsals 2/1, Promising sort. First run since leaving Richard Hannon when fifth of 7 in minor event on the AW course here (7f, 8/13) 49 days ago, finishing with running left. Gelded since and cheekpieces on 1st time. Should be in the mix with improvement likely.
2 2nd (1) (4.5/1 +18%) Cabinet Of Clowns	4.5/1(+18%)	(1) Cabinet Of Clowns 4.5/1, Once-raced gelding. Fourth of 6 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, good to firm, 20/1) on debut 20 days ago. Open to improvement and he's high on the shortlist.
3 3rd (4) (2/1 -23%) Glory And Gold	2/1(-23%)	(4) Glory And Gold 2/1, Thrice-raced filly. Second of 12 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 11/8) 7 days ago, running on. Represents top, in-form yard and she should have a say in the finish.
4 4th (3) (80/1 -21%) Berrygar	80/1(-21%)	(3) Berrygar 80/1, Twice-raced gelding. Tenth of 13 in minor event at Goodwood (6f, soft, 80/1). Off 7 months and probably more one for handicaps in due course.
5th 5th (9) (10/1 +29%) Soi Dao	10/1(+29%)	(9) Soi Dao 10/1, Thrice-raced filly. 6/1, fourth of 6 in minor event at Kempton (8f) 56 days ago. No more than an each-way squeak.
6th 6th (6) (5/1 -43%) Seascape Girl	5/1(-43%)	(6) Seascape Girl 5/1, Twice-raced filly. 10/3, second of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f). Off 6 months and while more will be needed here, this daughter of Time Test should have more to offer as a 3-y-o.
7th 7th (7) (50/1 -52%) Storytime	50/1(-52%)	(7) Storytime 50/1, Twice-raced filly. 20/1, tenth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 126 days and needs to raise her game considerably.
8th 8th (5) (40/1 +39%) News Girl	40/1(+39%)	(5) News Girl 40/1, £23,000 2-y-o, New Bay filly. Half-sister to 6f-1m winner Gellhorn. Dam 2-y-o 7f winner. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner.
9th 9th (8) (300/1 -355%) Kissed By Ice	300/1(-355%)	(8) Kissed By Ice 300/1, Twice-raced filly. Last of 4 in minor event (125/1) at Lingfield (6f, AW) 78 days ago. Best to look elsewhere.

1 1st (2) (9/1 +10%) Larch Hill	9/1(+10%)	(2) Larch Hill 9/1, Won over C&D last autumn before following up at Huntingdon. Shaped as if needing run on return earlier this month and may do better here.
2 2nd (6) (1.38/1 +66%) Atlantic Storm	1.38/1(+66%)	(6) Atlantic Storm 1.38/1, Down in weights and produced his best showing for a while when runner-up on return at Warwick last month, though again didn't fully convince with finishing effort. 3-time C&D winner merits consideration.
3 3rd (5) (4.5/1 -64%) Somekindofstar	4.5/1(-64%)	(5) Somekindofstar 4.5/1, Scored at Fakenham in January and returned to form with a good second at Huntingdon 16 days ago. Not certain to be in same form this time but a repeat effort would see him go close.
4 4th (4) (2.5/1 +0%) Dogon	2.5/1(+0%)	(4) Dogon 2.5/1, Temperamental sort for Paul Nicholls but made a winning start for new yard at Fontwell 9 days ago. 6 lb higher mark requires more but yard do well with similar types.
5th 5th (1) (20/1 -208%) Tikkinthebox	20/1(-208%)	(1) Tikkinthebox 20/1, C&D winner was largely consistent last summer but ended his season with 2 alarmingly poor runs. Probably best watched on return.
6th 6th (3) (8/1 +0%) Jamacho	8/1(+0%)	(3) Jamacho 8/1, Productive last summer, winning twice over hurdles before making at second time lucky over fences at Huntingdon in October. Fell on return last month but remains on fair mark.

2 2nd (1) (11/1 -57%) Otago	11/1(-57%)	(1) Otago 11/1, Landed back-to-back Epsom handicaps (7f) last summer. Merely ticked over subsequently, fifth of 8 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 11/2) 25 days ago, steady progress 2f out but never better than midfield. Still, this drop in grade rates a plus.
3 3rd (7) (8/1 +0%) Mr Fayez	8/1(+0%)	(7) Mr Fayez 8/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good, 12/1) 4 days ago. Each-way possibilities.
4 4th (8) (3/1 +63%) Bonus	3/1(+63%)	(8) Bonus 3/1, C&D winner. 8/1, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap here (1m, AW) 35 days ago, headed and no extra final 1f. Steadily easing in the weights and return to this trip a plus. Possibilities.
5th 5th (5) (4.5/1 +55%) Galactic Glow	4.5/1(+55%)	(5) Galactic Glow 4.5/1, Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs. 5/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 12 days ago, headed over 1f out and no extra. Blinkers may have a positive effect now.
6th 6th (2) (16/1 -45%) Latent Heat	16/1(-45%)	(2) Latent Heat 16/1, Temperamental sort who ended lengthy losing run here (1m, AW) in February. However, hasn't convinced recently, only sixth of 10 in handicap at Bath (1m, good to soft) 37 days ago.
7th 7th (10) (25/1 -178%) Tessy Lad	25/1(-178%)	(10) Tessy Lad 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 50/1, eighth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (7f) in February, left behind over 1f out. Goes handicapping in an ordinary affair and better showing anticipated.
8th 8th (4) (8.5/1 -42%) Gherkin	8.5/1(-42%)	(4) Gherkin 8.5/1, Dual 6f winner at Kempton in the autumn and he ran well when runner-up on return at Windsor (6f) in April. Not in quite the same form when fifth at Wolverhampton 3 weeks ago but certainly no forlorn hope in an open-looking affair.
9th 9th (9) (14/1 +30%) Fire In The Rain	14/1(+30%)	(9) Fire In The Rain 14/1, Maiden who has yet to figure in 3 starts for present stable but did catch the eye to an extent at Beverley (8.5f) on penultimate start in April. Arrives here operating from career-low mark and she could be worth a second look.
10th 10th (3) (3/1 +25%) Ajrad	3/1(+25%)	(3) Ajrad 3/1, Unlucky not to win on the AW here on return and quickly dispelled a lesser effort when close-up fifth of 6 in a C&D handicap (good) 14 days ago. Should give another good account.
11th 11th (6) (66/1 -371%) Basharat	66/1(-371%)	(6) Basharat 66/1, Belatedly off the mark in a small-field Catterick novice (6f) back in September but not in same form at Hamilton (6f) later that month. Absent since but reappears with yard in good order so not ruled out.
12th 12th (12) (100/1 -100%) Vice Royal	100/1(-100%)	(12) Vice Royal 100/1, 125/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 73 days ago. Others preferred.

2 2nd (8) (7/1 +30%) Vinnie's Icon	7/1(+30%)	(8) Vinnie's Icon 7/1, Poor maiden never better than mid-field again at Exeter last time. Unlikely to figure.
3 3rd (2) (3/1 -33%) Lil Codey	3/1(-33%)	(2) Lil Codey 3/1, Slightly underwhelming at Worcester last time but she has largely held form since joining this yard and can give another good account in change of headgear.
4 4th (1) (4.5/1 -50%) Crimson King	4.5/1(-50%)	(1) Crimson King 4.5/1, Fair but temperamental sort on the Flat (won twice on AW this winter). Didn't match that level in a handful of hurdles starts in 2020 but likely remains capable of better in this sphere.

2 2nd (3) (2/1 +0%) Dhowin	2/1(+0%)	(3) Dhowin 2/1, Got off the mark over fences in comfortable fashion at Fontwell earlier this month. Up 6 lb but very much appeals as the type to have a productive summer and set to go well again.
3 3rd (5) (4/1 +11%) Danny Whizzbang	4/1(+11%)	(5) Danny Whizzbang 4/1, Down in the weights when getting off the mark for this yard at Huntingdon in April. Not seen to best effect over hurdles since but remains with clear handicapping scope back up in trip.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (1) (4.5/1 +18%) Ask A Honey Bee	4.5/1(+18%)	(1) Ask A Honey Bee 4.5/1, Useful but his jumping and attitude are become increasing concerns. Surely capable of posing a threat down in grade from current mark, but whether he allows himself to do so is a different question.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (4) (5/1 -11%) El Paso Wood	5/1(-11%)	(4) El Paso Wood 5/1, Stiff tasks on last 3 outings, performing with most credit when fourth in the Midlands National. Had a busy couple of months but should prove capable in this company.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (6) (8.5/1 +29%) Beatthebullet	8.5/1(+29%)	(6) Beatthebullet 8.5/1, Made a winning start over fences at Exeter in November but largely poor since and again showed little at Cheltenham last time. Something to find on form.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (7) (16/1 -45%) Templehills	16/1(-45%)	(7) Templehills 16/1, Veteran who scored over C&D in October (only other win since 2018 also came here). Typically sketchy jumping an issue again when coming down here on return but can't be discounted turned out quickly given course record.

20:15 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 6f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (5/1 +64%) Coup De Force	5/1(+64%)	(5) Coup De Force 5/1, 7/1, respectable third of 8 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Eased further 2 lb since but sole success to date did come at the minimum trip.
2 2nd (1) (4/1 +43%) Rosa Mystica	4/1(+43%)	(1) Rosa Mystica 4/1, Off the mark in a Goodwood seller (5f) last June and made the frame on 4 of her 6 subsequent starts as a juvenile. Worth a look.
3 3rd (2) (6/1 -20%) Smiling Sunflower	6/1(-20%)	(2) Smiling Sunflower 6/1, First run since leaving John Best & Karen Jewell when last of 4 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm, 9/4) 25 days ago. That was her first start for 5 months but understandably, she needs to step up on that to figure here.
4 4th (6) (12/1 -85%) Almodovar Del Rio	12/1(-85%)	(6) Almodovar Del Rio 12/1, Posted a career-best effort when runner-up over 7f at Wolverhampton (7f) in January. Not seen to best effect when last of 9 at Kempton thereafter (awkwardly away and refused to settle) and bounce back distinctly possible on turf debut. Down in trip.
5th 5th (4) (4/1 +0%) Nickleby	4/1(+0%)	(4) Nickleby 4/1, Winner at Southwell (6f) in January. 9/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good) 9 days ago. Mark has eased a little more but others appeal more for win purposes.
6th 6th (3) (2/1 +11%) T Maxie	2/1(+11%)	(3) T Maxie 2/1, Promising sort. 2/1, posted a career best effort on back of a wind op when winning 7-runner handicap at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm) 24 days ago, pushed out. Open to further progress and shortlisted here.

20:30 Stratford Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (3.33/1 +33%) Noahthirtytwored	3.33/1(+33%)	(4) Noahthirtytwored 3.33/1, Made a successful handicap debut at Southwell in April and ran at least as well when third from 1 lb lower mark at Newton Abbot 10 days ago. Should go well again.
2 2nd (8) (7/1 +30%) Tarseem	7/1(+30%)	(8) Tarseem 7/1, Ran a decent race when fourth at Uttoxter in March (final outing for Dan Skelton) but has been below best both starts for this yard and needs to bounce back.
3 3rd (6) (10/1 +0%) Grandee	10/1(+0%)	(6) Grandee 10/1, One-time useful Flat performer who remains low mileage over hurdles, shaping as if better for run when mid-field at Newton Abbot sole start in 2021/22. Hard to know what to expect after 10-month absence.
4 4th (2) (2.25/1 -20%) Greystoke	2.25/1(-20%)	(2) Greystoke 2.25/1, Fairly useful on the Flat at up to 1¼m and has improved run to run over hurdles, getting off the mark at Newton Abbot earlier this month. By no means the finished article yet but should prove tough to beat on these terms.
5th 5th (7) (16/1 +36%) Jack The Farmer	16/1(+36%)	(7) Jack The Farmer 16/1, Only poor form in novice hurdles and hasn't improved as anticipated for the switch to handicaps. Must improve in first-time cheekpieces.
6th 6th (9) (22/1 -10%) Invincible Wish	22/1(-10%)	(9) Invincible Wish 22/1, Demoted to second having been first past the post at Newton Abbot last summer but struggled subsequently, including over fences. Makes return over hurdles with questions to answer.
7th 7th (5) (3.33/1 +0%) Gerard Mentor	3.33/1(+0%)	(5) Gerard Mentor 3.33/1, Placed on 4 consecutive starts before getting off the mark at Market Rasen 15 days ago, despite saddle slipping on run-in. 6 lb higher here but likely to continue in good form.
8th 8th (1) (16/1 -78%) Scudamore	16/1(-78%)	(1) Scudamore 16/1, Fair winner on Flat but hasn't gone on from promising hurdles debut, well beaten in Wetherby novice 51 days ago. Probably needs to show more to make a winning start in handicaps.

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.
