1	6 1st (6) (3.2/1 -16%) Hydration		3.2 3.2/1(-16%)																															(6) Hydration 3.2/1, Won at Kempton (7f) in October. 11/2, third of 6 in novice at Windsor (6f, heavy) 41 days ago. Could do better now handicapping. Still unexposed and looks interesting on handicap debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (4/1 +43%) Amazonian Dream		4 4/1(+43%)																															(2) Amazonian Dream 4/1, 3/1, last of 3 in handicap at Bath (5f, firm) 16 days ago, very slowly away. Blinkers on 1st time. Out of sorts but below last winning mark and the headgear might help. Good chance off current mark provided he revives in first-time blinkers.
3	8 3rd (8) (10/1 +0%) Major Gatsby		10 10/1(+0%)																															(8) Major Gatsby 10/1, 8/1, good second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on. All wins in Class 6 events over 7f; doesn't look the percentage call.
4	3 4th (3) (2.5/1 +9%) Vape		2.5 2.5/1(+9%)																															(3) Vape 2.5/1, Latest win at Chepstow in May. Good second of 7 in handicap (5/1) at Newbury (6f, firm) 18 days ago, sticking to task. One to consider. Solid effort (close second to subsequent scorer) at Newbury last time; respected.
5th	1 5th (1) (5/1 -43%) Beyond Equal		5 5/1(-43%)																															(1) Beyond Equal 5/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Gambled-on 11/2, seventh of 11 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 27 days ago. Hood on 1st time, cheekpieces on 1st time. Interesting. Has clear possibilities off current mark provided he takes well to hood/cheekpieces.
6th	4 6th (4) (33/1 +0%) Dynamite Katie		33 33/1(+0%)																															(4) Dynamite Katie 33/1, Lightly-raced winner. 66/1, first run since leaving Miss Natalia Lupini when sixth of 7 in handicap at Newbury (7f, firm) 18 days ago, doing too much too soon. Did too much up front over 7f on debut for new stable; still has low mileage.
7th	5 7th (5) (16/1 +36%) Endowed		16 16/1(+36%)																															(5) Endowed 16/1, Off 6 months, tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Tony Carroll when last of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 40/1) 78 days ago. Has had a wind op since. Needs to show more this time. Had a third wind surgery since last run (stable debut); well treated on best form.
8th	7 8th (7) (10/1 +9%) Reinforce		10 10/1(+9%)																															(7) Reinforce 10/1, Maiden. Off 7 months and in first-time hood, 12/1, 5½ lengths last of 10 to Autumnal Breeze in 5f handicap at Tipperary 26 days ago, subsequently disqualified after rider failed to weigh in. Lurks on a tempting mark. Irish challenger; still a maiden but could go well off reduced mark.

LTO Selection:

Hydration is a fascinating contender on his handicap bow for the Harry & Roger Charlton stable after showing more than enough in novice events to suggest he could defy his opening mark of 75. However, a chance can be taken on AMAZONIAN DREAM, who takes a further drop in grade after finishing last of three at Bath. He lost many lengths at the start that day and, with a better break, he could play a strong hand in the finish. Vape is another to consider.

BEYOND EQUAL has his first go in a class 5 since his 3-y-o days and while he's far from the most consistent it's hard to believe he can't cash in off his much-reduced mark soon. He's won here in the past and is worth chancing in new headgear. 3-y-o Hydration could do better now handicapping and is feared along with Vape.

On current form VAPE has the most solid chance. Unexposed Hydration is second choice.

1	5 1st (5) (1.25/1 +69%) Fenna's Loss		1.25 1.25/1(+69%)																															(5) Fenna's Loss 1.25/1, Winless since his debut over hurdles and he failed to build on previous promise when eighth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, good to soft) 118 days ago. Handily weighted if his break sparks improvement. Uttoxeter winner last July; mixed form since but stable in form; one to consider.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 +60%) Cousu Main		4 4/1(+60%)																															(3) Cousu Main 4/1, Dual Uttoxeter winner but he arrives below par, tried in cheekpieces when fourth of 8 in handicap at Worcester (16f, good to soft) 39 days ago on his final run for Neil Mulholland. Needs to get back on track for his new handler. £3,000 purchase in May; winner in January but not as good since; better at shorter.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/1 +73%) Faron		9 9/1(+73%)																															(7) Faron 9/1, Dual hurdles winner for Joseph O'Brien last year and ended his time with that stable when second in a Ballinrobe handicap in August. Little to get excited about for his current yard, though. Ex-Irish; Sligo winner in August but disappointing since; plenty to prove at present.
4	2 4th (2) (10/1 +38%) Wor Verge		10 10/1(+38%)																															(2) Wor Verge 10/1, Course winner but he reportedly broke a blood vessel when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (17.4f, good to soft) 93 days ago. Has it to prove now. Two wins over 2m1f last October; not as good after that; back from a break; 2m4f a concern.
4	4 |PU| (4) (2.75/1 +17%) Deluxe Range		2.75 2.75/1(+17%)																															(4) Deluxe Range 2.75/1, Losing run dates back to 2020 and he comes here on the back of a below-form seventh in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (23.7f, good) 40 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Has not won since 2020, but good third here in March; conditions suit; one with a chance.

LTO Selection:

---

LORD CAPRIO returned to winning ways over C&D on his most recent outing in this sphere before attempting to back up just four days later on the level at Ripon, where he filled the runner-up spot. Off a 4lb higher mark on this occasion, that might not be enough to stop the eight-year-old. A drop back in trip might aid the cause of Deluxe Range, while Cousu Main completes the shortlist.

Most of these arrive with a question mark against them so the reliable LORD CAPRIO is fancied to bag a second C&D success on the back of his good recent second on the Flat at Ripon. Fenna's Loss is weighted to have a big say if freshened up after a break.

1	6 1st (6) (0.91/1 +0%) Denis Anthony		0.91 0.91/1(+0%)																															(6) Denis Anthony 0.91/1, Good second of 7 in handicap (13/8) at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) 17 days ago. That was another excellent effort against another big improver and he looks the one to beat. Turn looks near, having finished a solid second (behind subsequent winners) the last twice.
2	5 2nd (5) (4/1 +0%) Solution		4 4/1(+0%)																															(5) Solution 4/1, Promising type. 80/1, seventh of 12 in novice event at Doncaster (8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, not knocked about. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Should progress. Open to improvement now handicapping and upped in distance; interesting.
3	1 3rd (1) (8/1 +33%) Mujid		8 8/1(+33%)																															(1) Mujid 8/1, C&D winner. Respectable third of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, firm, 5/1) 18 days ago. That was a step in the right direction and he's well weighted, though does take on the 3-y-os. Signs of a return to form last time; defied a 7lb higher mark over C&D last August.
4	4 4th (4) (3.33/1 +17%) Royal Dream		3.33 3.33/1(+17%)																															(4) Royal Dream 3.33/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (10f, AW) 13 days ago. Unexposed and Murphy takes over so lots to like. Off the mark in AW handicap two weeks ago; open to further progress; respected.
5th	7 5th (7) (28/1 -180%) Sexy Rexy		28 28/1(-180%)																															(7) Sexy Rexy 28/1, Didn't need to improve to win 4-runner handicap (9/4) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 73 days ago, pushed out. First run for yard after leaving Marco Botti and this is a deeper race switched to turf. Opened her account in weak race on latest AW run; faces harder task on turf/stable debut.

LTO Selection:

---

Royal Dream arrives on the back of a breakthrough success on the all-weather at Lingfield and can't be dismissed off 4lb higher. Ed Dunlop's gelding, however, has yet to prove as effective on turf and it may pay to take him on with C&D winner MUJID. The eight-year-old returned to form when finishing third at Nottingham last time and a 1lb drop in the ratings can only aid his cause. Denis Anthony is another possibility.

The 3-y-os look set to dominate this with marginal preference for DENIS ANTHONY, who deserves to win one of these having bumped into a big improver on his last 2 starts. Royal Dream has plenty going for him too, with Solution sure to do better now handicapping.

Having posted solid efforts the last twice, DENIS ANTHONY looks poised to open his account. Royal Dream is feared most.

8	8 (8) (16/1 +36%) Mummy Peas		16 16/1(+36%)																															(8) Mummy Peas 16/1, Kuroshio filly. Half-sister to 7f winner Noshowlikeajoeshow. Dam unraced half-sister to useful 11f-1¾m winner Calayana. 20/1, little impact in 7.4f Beverley newcomes fillies' maiden on debut a fortnight ago. Some promise over 7.5f on debut two weeks ago; needs plenty of improvement.
1	5 1st (5) (3.5/1 -27%) Mauna Loa		3.5 3.5/1(-27%)																															(5) Mauna Loa 3.5/1, Ran well in a pretty good 5f Thirsk maiden on debut and matched that form despite a short-priced defeat when going close at Carlisle, looking ready for this extra furlong. Bold bid expected. Two promising efforts over 5f and her pedigree indicates this trip will suit better.
2	4 2nd (4) (0.91/1 +9%) Whoop Whoop		0.91 0.91/1(+9%)																															(4) Whoop Whoop 0.91/1, Has shown plenty in 2 starts, the penny dropping late on debut at Salisbury (5f) while she ran well from the front at Kempton (6f) last time. Sets a good standard and could be hard to pass. Promise in a hot race on debut and again in a good AW maiden latest; leading claims.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/1 +17%) Sacred Angel		5 5/1(+17%)																															(3) Sacred Angel 5/1, Foaled March 24. £52,000 yearling, Dark Angel filly. Half-sister to 1¼m winner Anotherfortheroad. Dam, 2-y-o 5f/6f winner, half-sister to useful 1m-11f winner Super Say. Not overfaced for debut and yard get winning 2-y-o newcomers here. £52,000 half-sister to a winner in France; dam a Listed winner; interesting newcomer.
4	2 4th (2) (66/1 -200%) Fast Love		66 66/1(-200%)																															(2) Fast Love 66/1, Time Test filly from the family of Great Voltigeur winner Centennial. Big prices and down the field in 6f events. Looks one for nurseries over further. Promise on debut but failed to build in it when last over C&D 13 days ago.
5th	1 5th (1) (25/1 +0%) Brandaisy		25 25/1(+0%)																															(1) Brandaisy 25/1, Twilight Son filly. Half-sister to 11f winner Viceregent. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner). 40/1, looked one for the longer term in 6f Ripon fillies' novice first time up 24 days ago. 40-1, green and down the field on her debut 24 days ago; looks stable second string again.
6th	6 6th (6) (8.5/1 +6%) Very Blue Moon		8.5 8.5/1(+6%)																															(6) Very Blue Moon 8.5/1, Foaled April 28. €36,000 yearling, Kodiac filly. Sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Reflect Alexander and 2-y-o 5f winner Moon of Love and half-sister to 3 winners, including 7f winner Geneticist. Yard had a winning newcomer earlier in the week and she's worth a look. 36,000euros yearling; four winning siblings; one to note for market confidence.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 +15%) Lady Dandylion		28 28/1(+15%)																															(7) Lady Dandylion 28/1, Well held in 5f Ripon maiden and 6f class 2 Haydock fillies' maiden. Hard to fancy. Debut effort hinted at ability but suffered a heavy defeat upped to 6f last time.

LTO Selection:

---

WHOOP WHOOP has shaped well on both starts to date, finishing fourth at Salisbury and Kempton, and the manner of her performance last time suggested the stiff finish would play to her strengths on this occasion. The step up to 6f is likely to benefit Mauna Loa following her neck second at Carlisle on her second outing and she appears the most likely to serve it up to the selection. Sacred Angel cost 52,000 pounds at the Goffs UK Premier sale and she appeals most of the remainder.

WHOOP WHOOP was much improved from her debut when fourth over this trip at Kempton and could be hard to beat. Mauna Loa is ready for 6f and can go well, while Sacred Angel is an interesting newcomer for a yard that had one go close here recently.

This looks less demanding than the races WHOOP WHOOP has contested to date and she can get off the mark at the third attempt.

1	1 1st (1) (2.25/1 +0%) Guinness Affair		2.25 2.25/1(+0%)																															(1) Guinness Affair 2.25/1, Three-time winner on good ground over hurdles in summer of 2021. Probably needed the run (back from 20 months off) on chasing debut at Wincanton recently, so entitled to build on that. Bumper/novice hurdle winner in 2021; well beaten on chase debut after 601-day break.
2	3 2nd (3) (0.62/1 -9%) Kicksaftersix		0.62 0.62/1(-9%)																															(3) Kicksaftersix 0.62/1, Fair form in bumpers for Warren Greatrex and has improved since switched to chasing lately, scoring comfortably in a C&D handicap 8 days ago. Should go in again if the race doesn't come too soon. Off the mark over fences when tried in a hood over C&D last time; up 6lb; the one to beat.
3	2 3rd (2) (6/1 +50%) Royle Steel		6 6/1(+50%)																															(2) Royle Steel 6/1, Fair 2m winner over hurdles but there wasn't a great deal of encouragement to be gleaned from his first try over fences at Market Rasen earlier this month. Might have learned from that. Maiden hurdle winner in 2022 but patchy form over hurdles/fences since; others stronger.

LTO Selection:

---

KICKSAFTERSIX got off the mark over C&D last Saturday with an authoritative display and it would be no surprise to see him strike again, especially with the lack of opposition being in his favour. Guinness Affair may have needed the run when returning from a lengthy spell off the track at Worcester last month and he is preferred to Royle Steel in the battle for the minor honours.

KICKSAFTERSIX has made a positive start over fences and is fully expected to follow up his C&D win 8 days ago. The opposing pair both failed to fire on their chasing debuts but could step forward with the benefit of experience.

The winner of a low-grade handicap here last week, KICKSAFTERSIX is taken to follow up off this 6lb higher mark.

1	3 1st (3) (0.83/1 +49%) Merlin The Wizard		0.83 0.83/1(+49%)																															(3) Merlin The Wizard 0.83/1, Confirmed previous promise when off the mark at the third attempt in 14-runner minor event at Kempton (7f, 2/1) 18 days ago. Will go on improving and he can score again as he makes his handicap debut. Made all at Kempton (AW) on latest novice start; open to further progress; respected.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/1 +13%) Woodstock		7 7/1(+13%)																															(4) Woodstock 7/1, Made it back-to-back wins with success at Kempton in March. However, hasn't progressed in 2 starts in handicaps since, sixth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (1m, good to firm, 6/1) 30 days ago. Balance of his 1m form suggests this new trip needs to trigger improvement.
3	1 3rd (1) (20/1 -300%) Baileysgutfeeling		20 20/1(-300%)																															(1) Baileysgutfeeling 20/1, Simple task when winning 3-runner seller at Leicester (6f, good to firm, 2/5) 8 days ago. Back up in trip on first run for yard after leaving Kevin Philippart De Foy. Good-value claimer on board for his hat-trick bid. Won his two starts for Kevin Philippart De Foy; runs off career-high mark on stable debut.
4	5 4th (5) (4/1 +27%) Frequent Flyer		4 4/1(+27%)																															(5) Frequent Flyer 4/1, Runner-up twice at this C&D last summer. Below that level since, though, ninth of 11 in handicap at Goodwood (1m, good to soft, 14/1) 51 days ago. Has subsequently been gelded and visor now on 1st time. Gelded since last run and now goes in visor; runner-up twice over C&D last August.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 -45%) Tollard Royal		4 4/1(-45%)																															(2) Tollard Royal 4/1, After 7 months off, only fifth of 13 in handicap (5/2) at Kempton (1m) in April. However, has had a wind op since and could resume his progress with the hood now back on. Had wind surgery since last run; may still have further progress in him; one to consider.

LTO Selection:

---

Although warranting respect, Baileysgutfeeling returns to handicaps off a career-high mark and the four-year-old may come up short in his quest to complete the hat-trick. Last-time-out novice stakes winner MERLIN THE WIZARD makes most appeal, with an opening rating of 83 appearing workable. Tollard Royal shouldn't mind the return to an extended 7f, and a wind procedure since his latest fifth at Kempton may help George Boughey's inmate in seeing his race out with more verve.

MERLIN THE WIZARD confirmed the promise of his first 2 starts when opening his account at Kempton 18 days ago, sealing matters with a sharp turn of foot, and he can continue his progress to make a successful handicap debut. Tollard Royal could fare better having had a wind op and with the hood back on, so he is feared most ahead of Baileysgutfeeling.

The vote goes to handicap debutant MERLIN THE WIZARD, who looks the type to improve further. Tollard Royal is second choice.

1	10 1st (10) (8/1 -60%) Forceful Speed		8 8/1(-60%)																															(10) Forceful Speed 8/1, Successful twice at 2 yrs, namely a Wolverhampton nursery and a C&D novice. Possibly needed the run on return at Doncaster where the testing conditions may not have been ideal, and sports a first-time hood/tongue strap upped in trip here. C&D winner; too free when only 5th on his reappearance; now tongue-tied.
2	11 2nd (11) (3.33/1 +70%) Paddy The Squire		3.33 3.33/1(+70%)																															(11) Paddy The Squire 3.33/1, Different proposition on the back of a wind op when second at 80/1 in a Chester maiden last month. This a different environment now handicapping but he's well bred and unexposed. Improved effort after a wind op last month (1m2f, soft); more to come now handicapping.
3	9 3rd (9) (5.5/1 +54%) Highwaygrey		5.5 5.5/1(+54%)																															(9) Highwaygrey 5.5/1, Returned with a solid third at Haydock (10f) in April, travelling better than most and not knocked about. Unable to fully build on that since, but he was third in this from a higher mark a year ago and he was a shade better than the result at York 9 days ago. Good record over C&D and although it's been mixed so far this year, a big run is likely.
4	7 4th (7) (7/1 +42%) My Little Queens		7 7/1(+42%)																															(7) My Little Queens 7/1, Returned an improved performer this spring, making a successful reappearance at Chelmsford and better than ever for latest win in a Sunday Series handicap at Hamilton last month. Always on the back foot at Beverley since and that run probably best overlooked. Two wins this year and still looked in form despite only finishing sixth two weeks ago.
5th	4 5th (4) (5.5/1 +31%) Cockalorum		5.5 5.5/1(+31%)																															(4) Cockalorum 5.5/1, Fallen long way in weights and confirmed his effectiveness fresh when ending losing run from the front at Ripon in April. Shade fortunate to make it back-to-back wins there earlier this month but he shaped very well when fourth in hat-trick bid at Chester, forced to be ridden with more restraint. 2 front-running wins at Ripon this year; held up when 4th last week; well drawn to attack.
6th	2 6th (2) (16/1 -45%) Eeetee		16 16/1(-45%)																															(2) Eeetee 16/1, Dual winner last season who quickly put his York run behind him when making it 2 wins from 3 starts this campaign at Redcar (10f) last month. Shade too free upped to 12f for the first time in one of these events at Beverley a fortnight ago and better expected over this trip. Two 1m2f wins this year; didn't stay 1m4f last time but travelled notably well; considered.
7th	3 7th (3) (11/1 -22%) Million Thanks		11 11/1(-22%)																															(3) Million Thanks 11/1, Yet to win in 2023 having moved yards but posted just about a career best minus tongue tie when second of 6 at Yarmouth 17 days ago (1m). Way he responded for pressure on that occasion suggests he's well worth another go at this distance. Yet to win a handicap and stamina not assured; has run some fine races at 1m this year.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 +0%) Oneforthegutter		16 16/1(+0%)																															(1) Oneforthegutter 16/1, Useful handicapper but he's winless since his debut in 2021. Off 7 months/had wind op, probably needed the run when eighth in 11-runner handicap at Chester (10.3f, heavy) in May but does at least come here operating from career-low mark and he's unexposed at this sort of trip. Useful 2yo; down in the weights and his reappearance wasn't without hope; considered.
9th	5 9th (5) (5.5/1 +0%) Prophet's Dream		5.5 5.5/1(+0%)																															(5) Prophet's Dream 5.5/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o but progressive in handicaps, displaying a very willing attitude when supplementing his Bath success at Leicester last month. Up just 1 lb so demands respect in his hat-trick bid. 2-2 this year, both over 1m2f from the front; still has some potential.
10th	6 10th (6) (33/1 -32%) Knight Of Honour		33 33/1(-32%)																															(6) Knight Of Honour 33/1, Winner at Sakhir in January but it hasn't really clicked back in Britain of late, albeit couple of steadily-run races of late haven't helped his cause. Dropped in trip so certainly requires a good pace to aim at. Winner in Bahrain in January but patchy record since returned to Britain; opposable.

LTO Selection:

SHIMMERING SANDS improved from his return third here last month when producing a career-best performance at Doncaster and a 6lb rise is unlikely to stop the son of Teofilo from making it back-to-back victories. Paddy The Squire took a big step forward after a wind operation when runner-up in a Chester maiden and he is very much of interest on his handicap bow. Others to note include the hat-trick seeking Prophet's Dream and Cockalorum.

SHIMMERING SANDS confirmed the promise of his reappearance in no uncertain terms fitted with a tongue tie at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, looking some way ahead of his mark in the process. The assessor has reacted with a 6 lb rise but that looks lenient, so he's the one to be with. Prophet's Dream is an improving 4-y-o chasing a hat-trick so demands respect, with Million Thanks completing the shortlist.

Eeetee is a key player back at 1m2f but SHIMMERING SANDS won easily at Doncaster last time and can make light of a 6lb rise.

1	7 1st (7) (5/1 +0%) Dr Shirocco		5 5/1(+0%)																															(7) Dr Shirocco 5/1, Remains a maiden after 26 runs but finished runner-up 3 times over fences at the start of the year. Bounced back to form when third over hurdles at Kelso in May, and was going well enough when falling 3 out at this C&D last time. Looks to be vunerable once again, though. Long-standing maiden; chance when hampered and fell 3 out over C&D last time; 3lb wrong.
2	5 2nd (5) (2/1 +50%) Croagh Patrick		2 2/1(+50%)																															(5) Croagh Patrick 2/1, C&D winner who quickly bounced back to form when third of 7 in handicap at this course (24.2f) 8 days ago, settling better than of late with the cheekpieces left off. Has dropped back down to his last winning mark and could be ready to take advantage. C&D winner; has not won since March 2022 but fair 3rd over 3m here last week; in the mix.
3	3 3rd (3) (7.5/1 +46%) Grange Ranger		7.5 7.5/1(+46%)																															(3) Grange Ranger 7.5/1, Veteran who sprang a surprise at Wetherby in November and again hinted at a revival when fifth of 8 at this course (24.2f) in May. Not beaten far but never a threat when fourth of 6 back here 22 days ago, so more needed with visor now applied. Both wins at Wetherby; fair runs over 3m here on last 2 starts; a possible in new headgear.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 +0%) Exit To Where		9 9/1(+0%)																															(1) Exit To Where 9/1, Enhanced his good record at Kelso when getting back to winning ways there (23.4f) in May. Possibly found the race coming too soon when last at the same course 18 days later, so he could get back on track off a workable mark (has run well here earlier in his career). First win for nearly a year at Kelso last month; not so good since but could bounce back.
5th	6 5th (6) (2/1 +71%) Dolly Dancer		2 2/1(+71%)																															(6) Dolly Dancer 2/1, Form has gone the wrong way since scoring at this course (24.2f) last summer, her rider almost being unshipped at the first back here on her latest outing. Continues to fall in the weights at least and now has cheekpieces on first-time, but others more persuasive. Inconsistent; below par over 3m here last time; down in trip with headgear tried.
2	2 |U| (2) (9/1 -125%) Cilluirid		9 9/1(-125%)																															(2) Cilluirid 9/1, Pulled up on first 2 starts back from an 11-month absence in April/May. However, having been given a chance by the handicapper he bounced back to form when runner-up at Market Rasen (19.2f) at the beginning of the month. Dangerous off his current mark. All chase wins at Sedgefield; good second at Market Rasen latest; well treated; a possible.

LTO Selection:

---

DOLLY DANCER comes with risks attached after appearing unsettled by an early mistake here last Saturday, nevertheless, she lurks on a dangerous mark and first-time cheekpieces may prove the tonic. Cilluirid returned to form when staying on into second at Market Rasen earlier in the month and a similar level of performance should see him involved once more. Follow Your Arrow and Exit To Where can't be discounted either.

With the cheekpieces left off, CROAGH PATRICK wasted no time getting back to form when third at this course 8 days ago and he could be ready to return to winning ways over this shorter distance. He can see off the challenge of Follow Your Arrow who is respected back at this venue, while Cilluirid returned to form last time and lurks on dangerous mark.

Course-and-distance winner FOLLOW YOUR ARROW is back on a good mark and, after two good recent runs, he can win from Croagh Patrick.

1	1 1st (1) (1.62/1 +14%) Sympathise		1.62 1.62/1(+14%)																															(1) Sympathise 1.62/1, Made it 2-3 for her current yard this year with a career best in 9-runner handicap at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 40 days ago. Had more left in the locker there so leading claims in her hat-trick bid. Has form figures of 211 in handicaps and looks open to further progress; respected.
2	8 2nd (8) (12/1 +14%) The Cola Kid		12 12/1(+14%)																															(8) The Cola Kid 12/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 4/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Others more persuasive. Raced mainly at sprint distances; record over 7f doesn't augur well.
3	11 3rd (11) (5/1 +9%) Tranquillity		5 5/1(+9%)																															(11) Tranquillity 5/1, Respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 11/2) 24 days ago. Not discounted now stepping up in trip. Still fairly unexposed and may take a step forward with Oisin Murphy up for first time.
4	10 4th (10) (16/1 +36%) Latent Heat		16 16/1(+36%)																															(10) Latent Heat 16/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 16/1) 20 days ago. Back down in trip. Temperamental sort. Hasn't been placed for 12 months; unconvincing form in that period.
5th	2 5th (2) (40/1 -21%) Thewaytothestars		40 40/1(-21%)																															(2) Thewaytothestars 40/1, Last of 9 in handicap at Bath (8f, firm, 12/1) 16 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Maiden who has poor claims on 2023 form.
7th	4 7th (4) (12/1 -20%) Portelet Bay		12 12/1(-20%)																															(4) Portelet Bay 12/1, 13/2, last of 10 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, firm) 30 days ago. Back up in trip with work to do. Close second in January; far from consistent otherwise this year.
8th	3 8th (3) (8.5/1 +15%) Madrinho		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(3) Madrinho 8.5/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. 9/2, below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 20 days ago, left poorly placed. Remains an unreliable individual though. Veteran has mixed results of late; losing run is mounting up.
9th	5 9th (5) (6/1 +45%) Lilandra		6 6/1(+45%)																															(5) Lilandra 6/1, Below-form seventh of 9 to Sympathise in handicap (5/1) at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 40 days ago. Others appeal more. Has slipped to a handy mark but needs to raise her game.
10th	6 10th (6) (20/1 -150%) Ballet Blanc		20 20/1(-150%)																															(6) Ballet Blanc 20/1, Creditable second of 11 in minor event at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm, 50/1) 15 days ago, suited by strong pace. Can give another good account back in handicap company. Maiden; strong-finishing second in classified event dropped to 7f at Chepstow last time.
11th	7 11th (7) (33/1 -136%) Wiff Waff		33 33/1(-136%)																															(7) Wiff Waff 33/1, 40/1, creditable third of 11 in minor event at Chepstow (7.1f, good to firm) 15 days ago, sticking to task. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021, though. Step back in right direction last time and ties in with Ballet Blanc on that effort.

LTO Selection:

---

SYMPATHISE has proved a different proposition since going handicapping under the tutelage of Victor Dartnall and a latest 5lb rise may not prevent his mare from completing the hat-trick. Ballet Blanc returned to form when runner-up in a classified stakes event at Chepstow earlier in the month and may emerge as the chief threat on this switch to handicaps, ahead of Madrinho, who has been given some respite by the handicapper.

SYMPATHISE is thriving under the tutelage of Victor Dartnall and a 5 lb rise for her comfortable Chepstow success is unilkely to prevent this improving mare from completing a hat-trick. In-form pair Griggy and Tranquility appeal as the pick of the remainder and can chase home the selection in that order.

Improving SYMPATHISE (nap) could well complete a hat-trick. Ballet Blanc is second choice.

1	11 1st (11) (4.5/1 +10%) Voodoo Queen		4.5 4.5/1(+10%)																															(11) Voodoo Queen 4.5/1, Useful filly who comes here on the back of a career-best third of 9 to River of Stars in Bronte Cup at York (13.8f, good to firm) 29 days ago. This Frankel filly can go well again. Came to the fore as Sea Flawless and One Evening faded when third in 1m6f Group 3 at York.
2	7 2nd (7) (8.5/1 -6%) One Evening		8.5 8.5/1(-6%)																															(7) One Evening 8.5/1, Lightly-raced filly who landed 11f maiden at Kempton in Otober. Resumed from 7 months off with a creditable fifth of 9 to River of Stars in Bronte Cup at York (13.8f, good to firm) 29 days ago. May do better still. Possibilities. Needs to raise her game; it might be possible for one so lightly raced.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/1 +29%) Ching Shih		10 10/1(+29%)																															(4) Ching Shih 10/1, Useful filly who took her form up a notch on her seasonal return/first go over 12f when third of nine to Luisa Casati in Listed event at Goodwood last month. She may do better still so needs considering. Creditable third in Goodwood Listed race; has a little to find with winner Luisa Casati.
4	10 4th (10) (33/1 +34%) Three Priests		33 33/1(+34%)																															(10) Three Priests 33/1, Fairly useful filly but she went backwards from her reappearance second when ninth of 10 in handicap at Brighton (9.9f, good) 54 days ago. Back up in trip with work to do now. Poor show in Brighton handicap; even on best form, she is the lowest of these on ratings.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/1 +0%) Thanks Monica		11 11/1(+0%)																															(9) Thanks Monica 11/1, Much improved when fitted with blinkers last year, winning 2 handicaps. Returned with a good fourth of nine to Luisa Casati in listed race at Goodwood (12f, good to soft) 51 days ago. In the picture. Front-running 4th to Luisa Casati at Goodwood; bit to find even on peak 2022 form.
6th	8 6th (8) (5/1 +41%) Sea Flawless		5 5/1(+41%)																															(8) Sea Flawless 5/1, Sea The Stars filly who impressively landed 10f novices at Newcastle and Beverley this spring. Posted a good seventh of 9 to River of Stars in Bronte Cup at York (13.8f, good to firm) 29 days ago. One to consider with few miles still on the clock. It looks as if this drop back in trip will help but others have markedly better form.
7th	6 7th (6) (20/1 +20%) Madame Ambassador		20 20/1(+20%)																															(6) Madame Ambassador 20/1, Fairly useful filly who won a pair of 12f Newmarket handicaps last season. Posted a good fifth of 7 in Listed race at Ayr (10f, good) 32 days ago but this demands plenty more. Appeared to improve when front-running, 40-1 5th of seven in Listed race; still needs more.
8th	2 8th (2) (20/1 -100%) Pennymoor		20 20/1(-100%)																															(2) Pennymoor 20/1, Ended 2022 with a 13f listed win on AW at Lingfield but came in last of five (reported to be lame) in 12f Doncaster handicap on her return last month. She is in excellent hands and can bounce back. Listed win at Lingfield (1m5f, Polytrack) in October; her turf record is not convincing.
9th	5 9th (5) (22/1 -10%) Icykel		22 22/1(-10%)																															(5) Icykel 22/1, 12f maiden winner at Dundalk in February who has taken her form up a couple of notches since. Not disgraced in the face of a stiiff task when last of 9 in Group 3 at Leopardstown (14f, good) 37 days ago so shouldn't be underestimated. Five starts; comfortably held in two Listed races and last of nine in a Longchamp Group 3.
10th	3 10th (3) (1.88/1 +32%) Caius Chorister		1.88 1.88/1(+32%)																															(3) Caius Chorister 1.88/1, Rapid improver in handicaps last year, completing a 5-timer at Glorious Goodwood. Has continued her progress this term when twice second in Epsom handicaps and holds very good form claims. Big chance if 1m4f handicap form is transferred to this Listed race.

LTO Selection:

---

LUISA CASATI built on a placed effort in this company at Saint-Cloud in March when scoring at Goodwood last month and she may prove to be a tough nut to crack, despite giving weight to all of her rivals bar Pennymoor. John and Thady Gosden's mare had excuses on her return at Doncaster, but the best of her form has come on the all-weather. With that in mind, the most likely threats are Voodoo Queen, who was behind the selection at Goodwood but has since run well at York, and Caius Chorister.

A few of these still have the potential for further improvement but CAIUS CHORISTER sets a good standard and David Menuisier's very useful and likeable filly can gain a deserved first success of the season. Luisa Casati is feared most on the back of her Goodwood success in similar company, with Voodoo Queen and Icykel appealing as the pick of the rest for place purposes.

Caius Chorister is the clear pick judged on her handicap form and can front-run from stall 1. However, LUISA CASATI may reel her in.

Flat-bred; fair run at Wetherby on debut and an interesting candidate from an in-form yard.
2	10 2nd (10) (6/1 +29%) Take It Upstairs		6 6/1(+29%)																															(10) Take It Upstairs 6/1, Won a point bumper but couldn't make an impact at Aintree on debut. Might step forward on that, so not a forlorn hope. Scottish point winner; well beaten in fair bumper on debut (hampered); this looks easier.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/1 +17%) Rory's Story		10 10/1(+17%)																															(9) Rory's Story 10/1, Workforce filly. Dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 3¼m) Macgeorge. Pulled up sole start in Irish points (May 21). Wears tongue strap. Ex-Irish; pulled up after being badly hampered in mares' maiden point; watch the market.
4	1 4th (1) (4.5/1 +18%) Dream Boy		4.5 4.5/1(+18%)																															(1) Dream Boy 4.5/1, €1,500 3-y-o, Yorgunnabelucky gelding. Dam modest 2½m chase winner (stayed 3¼m). Successful on last of 3 starts in Irish points (Apr 21). One to consider. Winning Irish pointer who is worth a market check on stable/bumper debut.
5th	2 5th (2) (16/1 -129%) Jingle Jangle Jet		16 16/1(-129%)																															(2) Jingle Jangle Jet 16/1, Half-brother to a winner over jumps and showed something to work on when fourth at Market Rasen a a month ago. Should do better. Pulled quite hard when 22l fourth of six on debut; dam stayed well; should improve.
6th	3 6th (3) (7.5/1 +25%) The Scan Man		7.5 7.5/1(+25%)																															(3) The Scan Man 7.5/1, Doyen gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 2¾m) Couleur France. Unplaced in a point bumper but represents a good stable and makes appeal on pedigree. Well beaten in a point bumper debut in April and more needed to take this; stable debut.
7th	6 7th (6) (66/1 -65%) Solway Staree		66 66/1(-65%)																															(6) Solway Staree 66/1, Little show in bumpers at Perth 8 months apart and looks set for another struggle. Well beaten on both starts, last of four at Perth last time, and others appeal more.
8th	4 8th (4) (3.5/1 +22%) J C International		3.5 3.5/1(+22%)																															(4) J C International 3.5/1, £4,500 3-y-o, Nayef gelding. Dam 1¼m winner in France. Should have enough speed, so worth supporting with Brian Hughes up. £4,500 3yo; by Nayef out of a French 1m2f winner; interesting jockey booking on debut..
9th	8 9th (8) (28/1 +15%) Marlins Darlin		28 28/1(+15%)																															(8) Marlins Darlin 28/1, Related to a bumper winner but not much encouragement at Market Rasen a month ago. Beaten 34l when fifth of six on Market Rasen debut; improvement needed.
10th	7 10th (7) (28/1 -75%) Anny Mcphee		28 28/1(-75%)																															(7) Anny Mcphee 28/1, Garswood filly. Sister to 1¼m winner Mc'ted. Dam 9.5f-11.6f winner. Bred to have enough speed for this sort of test but stable not renwowned for debut winners. Sixth foal; sister to a 1m2f winner; debutante who is likely to improve for the experience.

LTO Selection:

---

Tineggiori wasn't beaten far on his debut at Wetherby in April and Mark Walford's charge can't be discounted in an open contest. A chance, however, is taken on newcomer J C INTERNATIONAL. The four-year-old is a rare runner under this code for his yard, with Brian Hughes an eye-catching jockey booking. Dream Boy arrives fresh on the back of a point-to-point success and also commands attention.

J C INTERNATIONAL is bred to be well equipped for bumpers and the booking of Brian Hughes looks notable on debut, so he gets the nod ahead of point-winner Dream Boy. The Scan Man is another Rules newcomer worthy of consideration, and the market should be informative.

It could be worth taking a chance on TINEGGIORI, who wasn't beaten far in a fair race on his bumper debut.

1	3 1st (3) (0.57/1 +43%) Lusaka		0.57 0.57/1(+43%)																															(3) Lusaka 0.57/1, 6/5, improved on recent efforts to win 5-runner handicap at Chepstow (12f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Should take all the beating. Easy winner at Chepstow two weeks ago, opening his account; back up just 3lb; respected.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/1 +42%) Beggarman		7 7/1(+42%)																															(4) Beggarman 7/1, Eighth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 10/1) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Revival needed; 0-6 on turf but returned to this sphere off a very handy mark.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/1 -71%) Red Royalist		6 6/1(-71%)																															(1) Red Royalist 6/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2017. Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Stuart Edmunds when good third of 9 in handicap (50/1) at Doncaster (11.9f, good to firm) 23 days ago. One to consider. Close third at Doncaster on debut for new yard; possibilities with Billy Loughnane booked.
4	2 4th (2) (9/1 -100%) Shibuya Song		9 9/1(-100%)																															(2) Shibuya Song 9/1, 15/2, first run since leaving Ed Walker when fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (16.3f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Likely to be back on his game. Interesting with Lingfield reappearance under her belt; second start for new stable.
5th	5 5th (5) (8.5/1 -21%) This Ones For Fred		8.5 8.5/1(-21%)																															(5) This Ones For Fred 8.5/1, Visored for 1st time, creditable third of 7 in handicap (11/1) at Lingfield (11.6f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Back up in trip. Respected. Respectable third in both starts for new stable; has a record of 3223 in turf handicaps.

LTO Selection:

LUSAKA found more prominent tactics to his liking when romping home at Chepstow earlier in the month and the handicapper may have let him in lightly off only 3lb more. There was plenty of encouragement to be taken from Red Royalist's stable debut when collared inside the final furlong to finish third at Doncaster last time and the nine-year-old must enter calculations, with This Ones For Fred making most appeal of the remainder.

LUSAKA produced his best effort for a while when scoring at Chepstow last time and, in a weak affair, he's worth a chance to follow up. Shibuya Song is likely to come on for her stable debut, so she's regarded as a threat, while Red Royalist is worth considering on the back of a solid start for his current yard.

The suggestion is SHIBUYA SONG on her second start for a new stable. This Ones For Fred is second choice.

1	4 1st (4) (3.2/1 -16%) Blow Your Horn		3.2 3.2/1(-16%)																															(4) Blow Your Horn 3.2/1, Arrives on a hat-trick after recent handicap wins at Doncaster (14f) and Beverley (2m). Up another 4 lb but he can't be taken lightly in his current mood. Going for a hat-trick and had better form at stages of 2021 and 2022; stays 2m well.
2	7 2nd (7) (3.5/1 +50%) Cold Henry		3.5 3.5/1(+50%)																															(7) Cold Henry 3.5/1, Dual 2m winner last autumn who has resumed in good order, second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 12 days ago. This son of Sixties Icon is still relatively lightly raced so rates a player now back up in trip. Relatively lightly raced and on the up, well worth a crack at this trip.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/1 +18%) Land Of Winter		9 9/1(+18%)																															(1) Land Of Winter 9/1, Winless since 2021 but he comes here in good nick, blinkered when fifth of 14 in handicap at Chester (18.6f) 44 days ago. Can race off a 2 lb lower mark here so needs considering. Stays 2m2f and well handicapped but best known for performances in the mud.
4	2 4th (2) (2.25/1 +25%) Haizoom		2.25 2.25/1(+25%)																															(2) Haizoom 2.25/1, Ended a long losing run on his yard debut (formerly with Keith Dalgleish) in 4-runner handicap at Ripon (16f) 18 days ago. Up 2 lb and this is tougher but still can't be discounted. 4th in this last year; won yard debut at Ripon on latest outing; should be bang there.
5th	5 5th (5) (7/1 -17%) Adamaris		7 7/1(-17%)																															(5) Adamaris 7/1, Fair 2m ex-Irish winner who has been off since coming in tenth over hurdles at Thurles in February. Starts out for his new yard on a handy-looking mark so very much one to consider, especially if the market vibes are positive. Ex-Irish; last seen over hurdles in February; has changed hands and left Gerard O'Leary.
6th	3 6th (3) (18/1 -100%) Champagne City		18 18/1(-100%)																															(3) Champagne City 18/1, C&D winner in April but only eighth of 11 in 14f handicap at Goodwood 51 days ago. Needs to get back on track. C&D win in April; below form latest; has a better chance to dictate the pace again today.
7th	6 7th (6) (8.5/1 -55%) Flint Hill		8.5 8.5/1(-55%)																															(6) Flint Hill 8.5/1, Resumed winning ways at Catterick in May before creditable third of 4 in 2m1f handicap here 13 days ago. This C&D winner is well in the mix off an unchanged mark. Three wins and three 2nds from 11 runs here; neck second in this last year off 1lb higher.

LTO Selection:

HAIZOOM made her first start for the Charlie Johnston yard a successful one when accounting for her three rivals at Ripon over 2m and she was only put up 2lb for that effort. Therefore, she is fancied to take another step forward to make it a double. The main danger might be Blow Your Horn, who has been in fine fettle recently, as he has secured a quick-fire double this month and is likely to be bang there once more, while Adamaris is worth a market check.

A few with chances but COLD HENRY has yet to run a bad race since sent over staying trips so gets the vote with this return to 2m a plus for this son of Sixties Icon. Hat-trick seeking Blow Your Horn rates an obvious threat, though Adamaris figures on a handy-looking mark on his debut for Adrian Keatley and is worth a second look too.

Cold Henry and Flint Hill are feared but the scene may be set for BLOW YOUR HORN (nap) to complete his hat-trick.

1	7 1st (7) (14/1 -40%) Derry Lad		14 14/1(-40%)																															(7) Derry Lad 14/1, Won over 1¼m at Sligo last term and took his form up a notch to resume winning ways back up in trip at Hamilton (11.1f, good) 6 weeks ago, staying on to lead final 100 yds. Has a pretty consistent overall profile so rates a solid each-way player. Won at Hamilton (1m3f) six weeks ago launching a late challenge for career-best form.
2	4 2nd (4) (8/1 +33%) Wootton'Sun		8 8/1(+33%)																															(4) Wootton'Sun 8/1, Has returned in top form, finishing runner-up at this track (10f) before a staying-on third at Redcar (10f, good) last month. On a fair mark and ought not be long in winning again. Best form placed at 1m2f in his two runs this term; below form on sole attempt at 1m4f.
3	10 3rd (10) (14/1 +13%) Bollin Margaret		14 14/1(+13%)																															(10) Bollin Margaret 14/1, Winless last year but mark has tumbled and justified good support to end the drought at Thirsk (12f) at the start of the month. Edged out on post in 3-runner handicap at Haydock next time and almost certainly remained in form when fourth in a big-field contest (11.8f) at York since. Snapped a losing sequence this month and is one of many in-form contenders.
4	9 4th (9) (1.88/1 +0%) Fox Journey		1.88 1.88/1(+0%)																															(9) Fox Journey 1.88/1, Left last autumn's efforts in maiden/novice company behind when making a successful handicap debut over 1¼m at Newmarket last month. Found out by a 9 lb rise at Epsom just over 3 weeks ago but is fancied to have a big say in this grade upped to 1½m. 3yo who needs to find a bit more but he's lightly raced, progressive and will stay 1m4f.
5th	2 5th (2) (7.5/1 +12%) Haseefah		7.5 7.5/1(+12%)																															(2) Haseefah 7.5/1, Scored twice last Spring and returned to action with an encouraging fifth at Epsom in April. Shaped well once again when third at Goodwood last month and she's threatening to come good soon. Won twice last May and has run mostly with credit since; needs to find a bit extra.
6th	3 6th (3) (8/1 +33%) Geremia		8 8/1(+33%)																															(3) Geremia 8/1, Habitual slow starter who finally ended his long losing run at Hamilton having threatened to do so numerous times in the interim. Ran to a similar level when third at Beverley a fortnight ago and should continue to give a good account. Close up on all three starts this season (won one) and still looks on a good mark.
7th	8 7th (8) (11/1 +21%) Carrigillihy		11 11/1(+21%)																															(8) Carrigillihy 11/1, Three-time C&D winner, including when posting a career best in an 8-runner handicap (good) last month, just holding on. Lost his unbeaten record at the track when fourth just under a fortnight ago and others make more appeal. 4-5 here; can have a say but he might not be as well handicapped as one or two of these.
8th	6 8th (6) (8.5/1 +58%) Fairmac		8.5 8.5/1(+58%)																															(6) Fairmac 8.5/1, Capitalised on falling mark to land 14-runner handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, soft) in April. Respectable midfield effort despite racing closer to the pace than ideal at Hamilton (13f) next time but below form at Beverley (12.1f, good to firm) a fortnight ago. 1 of 2 for this yard. Inconsistent but had a clearcut win at Musselburgh three starts ago and is just 2lb higher.
9th	1 9th (1) (7.5/1 -50%) Tamilla		7.5 7.5/1(-50%)																															(1) Tamilla 7.5/1, Dual winner last term and signed off her 3-y-o campaign with a respectable effort at Haydock. Shaped as if better for the run when down the field on return at Goodwood last month, so she's not discounted with that under her belt. Needs to resume improvement following her reappearance but it wouldn't be a surprise.
10th	11 10th (11) (18/1 +28%) Demilion		18 18/1(+28%)																															(11) Demilion 18/1, Winning handicap debut at Wolverhampton in January and built on that in defeat subsequently, strong at the trip when runner-up at Chester (heavy) early last month. Failed to give his running under less testing ground than previously 3 weeks later so that tempers enthusiasm here. Needs to bounce back and resume improvement after a heavy defeat four weeks ago.

LTO Selection:

---

TAMILLA could only manage seventh last time at Goodwood, but it's likely she could take a big step forward from that run, considering it came after a 266-day break. The daughter of Nathaniel was sent off favourite for a class 2 handicap at Haydock in September when finishing a close-up fourth and she could be the one to beat. Last-time-out winner Derry Lad enters calculations, as he went in by half a length at Hamilton and could have a say off 6lb higher. Geremia completes the shortlist.

Plenty in with a squeak but the vote goes to FOX JOURNEY, who left previous efforts behind when making a successful reappearance/handicap debut at Newmarket last month, and with this extra distance sure to play to his strengths, Sir Michael Stoute's 3-y-o is taken to double his tally. Wootton'sun has returned in top form, so he could be the one to chase the selection home, with Derry Lad and Two Brothers also considered.

A string of in-form candidates go head to head and improvement from the 3yo FOX JOURNEY on his first attempt at 1m4f may secure the win.

1	1 1st (1) (1.62/1 +46%) Silver Sword		1.62 1.62/1(+46%)																															(1) Silver Sword 1.62/1, Refused to race on first 2 starts but hard to knock since then, making short work of his rivals in a 1m Southwell maiden in April. Had been handed a stiff-looking mark, but improved further when runner-up on handicap debut at Epsom (10.1f) earlier this month. Respected. Progressing well now and he's a key player despite the drop in trip.
2	5 2nd (5) (16/1 -78%) Star Player		16 16/1(-78%)																															(5) Star Player 16/1, Improved for the switch to nurseries (had also been gelded) as he won 2 of his final 3 outings last year. Having left Simon & Ed Crisford, shaped as if better for the run when when mid-field in handicap at Sandown (1m) in May. Likely to be much closer to form this time. Should come on for last month's stable/seasonal debut; still has potential.
3	12 3rd (12) (28/1 +30%) Impulsive Reaction		28 28/1(+30%)																															(12) Impulsive Reaction 28/1, A winner of a Musselburgh maiden on his second run last year, showed more than previously this season when fifth of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f) 12 days ago. Improvement required to get involved in this contest. Yet to win a handicap; latest Ayr run was better but more is needed to win.
4	7 4th (7) (8.5/1 +66%) Overrule		8.5 8.5/1(+66%)																															(7) Overrule 8.5/1, Fairly useful form at 2 yrs, opening his account in a Redcar novice in November. Having been gelded prior to his latest start, turned in his best effort of the season when fifth of 8 in handicap at Haydock (7f) 15 days ago. However, that was still below the level he ran to last year. Not matched 2yo form in three runs this year; others look safer in this field.
5th	6 5th (6) (6.5/1 +68%) Dancing In Paris		6.5 6.5/1(+68%)																															(6) Dancing In Paris 6.5/1, Took a step forward making his handicap debut when off the mark at Haydock (1m) in April. Backed up that effort when second at Sandown next time, though not quite in the same form when fifth of 11 at Musselburgh (9f). Needs to resume his progress back down in trip. Progress stalled at Musselburgh last time but still has time to get back on track; chance.
6th	4 6th (4) (9/1 +18%) Venetian		9 9/1(+18%)																															(4) Venetian 9/1, Dual winner at 2 yrs and has left his reappearance run behind with placed efforts both starts since, headed only near the line when runner-up at Haydock (8.2f) 15 days ago. Drawn widest but he can give his running once more. Beaten a short-head at Haydock latest; 2lb rise and widest draw to contend with.
7th	2 7th (2) (4.5/1 -139%) Concorde		4.5 4.5/1(-139%)																															(2) Concorde 4.5/1, Has proved a different proposition sent handicapping upped to 1m this year (also gelded prior to his return), winning 3 of his 4 starts. Followed up his success at this C&D with a comfortable victory at Redcar in May and he can go on to land the hat-trick. Made a nonsense of his opening mark; now 31lb higher but the best could still be to come.
8th	9 8th (9) (28/1 -12%) Craven		28 28/1(-12%)																															(9) Craven 28/1, Promising second on first 2 outings last year and, having disappointed on his subsequent 2 starts of the campaign, got back on track after 8 months off (gelded and in first-time visor) when fourth of 14 in handicap at York (7f) last month. Could have more to offer up in trip. Didn't progress at two; promising reappearance but headgear off now she's upped in trip.
9th	11 9th (11) (8.5/1 +15%) Tasever		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(11) Tasever 8.5/1, Remains a maiden but has made the frame in handicaps all on 4 of his starts this season, again running well when second of 6 in handicap at this C&D 13 days ago (first 3 pulling clear of the rest). Can give another good account. Ran well when 2nd over C&D 13 days ago but this a warm race in which to break his duck.
10th	10 10th (10) (40/1 -21%) Royal Cay		40 40/1(-21%)																															(10) Royal Cay 40/1, Upped in trip, left first 2 runs of the year behind (both on all-weather) when getting off the mark in handicap at Beverley (7.4f) in April. However, not in the same form when last at Ayr on his latest outing. Should be suited by 1m, but others make more appeal. Beverley winner (7.5f, good to soft) in April; last of six since; improvement required.
11th	3 11th (3) (50/1 -213%) Ludo's Landing		50 50/1(-213%)																															(3) Ludo's Landing 50/1, Returned to the scene of his only previous win, showed improved form in first-time blinkers when doubling his tally at Carlisle (7.8f) at the beginning of the month. Left poorly placed when down the field at Ripon 5 days later, so no surprise to see him bounce back. Impressive at Carlisle this month in first-time blinkers; ran poorly five days later.

LTO Selection:

---

CONCORDE won a shade cosily at Redcar last month and a further 7lb rise may not prevent George Boughey's progressive three-year-old from completing a hat-trick. Silver Sword lost little in defeat when finding only subsequent Hampton Court fourth Torito too strong on his handicap debut at Epsom earlier this month and he likely has more to offer in this sphere. The son of Charm Spirit is feared most, ahead of Venetian, who arrives in good form too.

CONCORDE has shown much improved form sent handicapping this season, making it 3 wins from his 4 starts in 2022 with a cosy success at Redcar last time, and a 7-lb rise in the weights may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. Silver Sword has also been going the right way this year and could be the main danger, ahead of Tasever.

Concorde may not be done with just yet but SILVER SWORD ran a cracker at Epsom on Derby Day and he gets the nod.

1	10 1st (10) (20/1 -100%) Shalaa Asker		20 20/1(-100%)																															(10) Shalaa Asker 20/1, Already a three-time winner this year, latest at Chelmsford City in April. Posted another good effort when second at Beverley last time but stall 12 is problematic. In good form on AW this year and ran well off a lower turf mark latest (5f); fair shout.
2	11 2nd (11) (12/1 +0%) Rathbone		12 12/1(+0%)																															(11) Rathbone 12/1, Yet to get his head in front this season and found run of good form coming to a halt at York 8 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and has a handy draw, so this C&D winner merits respect. C&D winner; mixed record for new yard in 2023; others look more persuasive.
3	7 3rd (7) (12/1 +52%) Music Society		12 12/1(+52%)																															(7) Music Society 12/1, Fairly useful 6f winner but his run of good form came to an end when twelfth of 14 in handicap at York and failed to feature at Haydock last time. Needs to bounce back. Won this race in 2021 but unplaced last year; chance if back to even this season's best.
4	12 4th (12) (2.5/1 +55%) Manila Scouse		2.5 2.5/1(+55%)																															(12) Manila Scouse 2.5/1, Good second of 6 in handicap (11/2) at Beverley (5f, soft) 5 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Return to this trip is in his favour and makes most appeal from a handy draw. Unexposed 4yo; career best at Beverley on Tuesday (5f); has C&D form; best on soft.
5th	2 5th (2) (9/1 +0%) Abduction		9 9/1(+0%)																															(2) Abduction 9/1, Has been shaping up well lately, better than the result form a poor position when third at Musselburgh last time. Drop in trip and wide draw both against him here, though. A couple of good runs off this mark in 2023; not at best last time and drawn wide.
6th	3 6th (3) (6.5/1 +13%) Admiral D		6.5 6.5/1(+13%)																															(3) Admiral D 6.5/1, Largely ran well in 2022 without getting his head in front. Creditable fifth on Newmarket reappearance but not in same form since. Has the plum draw but questions to answer. Well handicapped and the return to 6f will suit; might need luck from the inside stall.
7th	8 7th (8) (6/1 +29%) Ghathanfar		6 6/1(+29%)																															(8) Ghathanfar 6/1, C&D winner who arrives on the back of a solid showing when fourth at York last time. Should give another good account if he can secure a reasonable position from stall 10. Won this race last year; dropping in the weights and last two runs have been promising.
8th	5 8th (5) (18/1 -50%) Mojomaker		18 18/1(-50%)																															(5) Mojomaker 18/1, Winless since 2-y-o days but good efforts on both outings this term, second at Goodwood last time. Had every chance there and a wide draw will make life tough. Two fair efforts this year but he'll need to raise his game to win this from his wide draw.
9th	4 9th (4) (10/1 -122%) Faro De San Juan		10 10/1(-122%)																															(4) Faro De San Juan 10/1, Right back to form when landing a Chester handicap despite a slow start 8 days ago. Not long with this yard, so potential for better still, and warrants plenty of respect. Off the mark for this yard at Chester eight days ago; 4lb rise not insurmountable.
10th	1 10th (1) (20/1 -25%) Fools Rush In		20 20/1(-25%)																															(1) Fools Rush In 20/1, Course winner but he's yet to fire this season. Edging down the weights and didn't have a hard time at Haydock last time, so not completely dismissed. Not found best stuff for this yard but last time was more encouraging; more required.
11th	13 11th (13) (20/1 -67%) Jordan Electrics		20 20/1(-67%)																															(13) Jordan Electrics 20/1, Made a fine start for current yard, scoring at Ayr and Hamilton in May. Not clear run at Beverley last time but has a tough draw to contend with. Two 5f wins for new yard and latest effort easy to forgive (met lots of trouble); chance.
12th	14 12th (14) (12/1 -41%) Milbanke		12 12/1(-41%)																															(14) Milbanke 12/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. Back in form and shaped best when coming from too far back to finish second over C&D. One to note on the back of that but will need everything to drop right from stall 11. Just failed over C&D 13 days ago and he'll be in the thick of the action with a repeat.
13th	9 13th (9) (20/1 +0%) The Thin Blue Line		20 20/1(+0%)																															(9) The Thin Blue Line 20/1, Produced a career best with the run of things in his favour at Musselburgh in April and went down only narrowly in his follow up bid at Hamilton a fortnight later. Below-par on both subsequent outings, albeit not seen to best effect at Epsom on latest. Been running creditably over 5f this year; stays 6f; should make a bold bid.

LTO Selection:

FARO DE SAN JUAN did well to win from an uncompromising position at Chester recently and a 4lb nudge in the ratings doesn't appear insurmountable. Dylan Cunha's string remain in good order and a second success of the season could be on the cards for his four-year-old. Milbanke posted his best effort of the season when finishing second over C&D just under a fortnight ago and also warrants consideration, ahead of in-form duo Manila Scouse and Shalaa Asker.

MANILA SCOUSE shaped like he's ready to win when second at Beverley last time and, with the return to this trip and low draw both in his favour, he takes preference over Faro de San Juan, who scored at Chester last time. Milbanke is likely to play a part if they go hard in front.

Shalaa Asker and JORDAN ELECTRICS appeal most and the selection could take another step forward back over this longer trip.

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.
