14:10 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 10f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (100/1 -300%) Visibility	100 100/1(-300%)	(2) Visibility 100/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. 5¼ lengths fifth of 8 to Lennon in handicap at this course (8f, good, 25/1) 8 days ago. Back up in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Sole turf win was over C&D in June 2022 but he is usually seen over shorter these days.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 -25%) Unplugged	5 5/1(-25%)	(1) Unplugged 5/1, Successful twice around this time last year, latterly in this race from a 4 lb lower mark and stepped up markedly on his reappearance effort when second of 12 in handicap at Haydock (11.6f, firm) 24 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Second leg of 2023 double was this race; first leg was at Haydock, where close 2nd latest.
3	3 3rd (3) (3/1 +25%) Life On The Rocks	3 3/1(+25%)	(3) Life On The Rocks 3/1, Resurgent having fallen plenty in the weights this year, completing quick-fire hat-trick at Wetherby (10f) last month prior to a good fourth back up in grade in 16-runner York handicap (10.2f) latest. One to consider back down in class. Won three in a row (Redcar, Ayr and Wetherby) before his respectable fourth of 16 at York.
4	6 4th (6) (2/1 -120%) Lennon	2 2/1(-120%)	(6) Lennon 2/1, Lightly-raced 3-y-o who has proved a different proposition back from a break/switched to handicaps, off the mark at Bath and stayed on to lead close home over 1m here 8 days ago. Step up to 1¼m looks sure to suit and lots to like in hat-trick bid. Steps up from 1m; has 6lb penalty but good chance to complete a quick hat-trick.
5th	5 5th (5) (66/1 -633%) Fiftyshadesaresdev	66 66/1(-633%)	(5) Fiftyshadesaresdev 66/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 12/1, creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 18 days ago, short of room under 2f out before keeping on. Not taken lightly from this career-low mark. Has another career-low mark and plenty of form that reads well, but his score is 0-21.
6th	7 6th (7) (50/1 -355%) Rayena	50 50/1(-355%)	(7) Rayena 50/1, 22/1, bounced back to form when second of 10 in amateur riders' handicap at Ripon (12f, good) 11 days ago, every chance from 2f out and keeping on. This rates tougher however dropped back in trip. Surged back to form when Ripon 2nd (1m4f) 11 days ago under Lois Teal; 4lb out of handicap.
7th	4 7th (4) (150/1 -355%) Royal Observatory	150 150/1(-355%)	(4) Royal Observatory 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat who proved easy to back and again ran below pick of his form when ninth of 13 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Others make much more appeal. Has not managed better than 5th in eight races and his three handicaps have not gone well.
8th	8 8th (8) (66/1 -100%) Harlington	66 66/1(-100%)	(8) Harlington 66/1, 40/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at Newbury (12f, good to firm) 18 days ago, never involved. Cheekpieces back on but others arrive with much stronger claims. Seven-race maiden; prominent in the betting for his first three handicaps but 40-1 latest.

LENNON did extremely well to supplement a Bath triumph over a mile here recently. The rise in distance looks likely to unlock some more improvement from George Boughey's inmate and he's taken to defy a 6lb penalty on this quick turnaround. The biggest threat may emerge from Unplugged, who arrives on the back of a close-up second at Haydock, while Life On The Rocks may fare best of the remainder.

LENNON has proved a different proposition back from a break/switched to handicaps, supplementing his Bath success over 1m here 8 days ago. The increase in trip promises to suit George Boughey's charge and he can complete the hat-trick with the prospect of more to come. Life On The Rocks and last year's winner Unplugged are others fancied to figure.

George Boughey's LENNON has seriously raised his game with the transition to handicapping and looks set for his third win in a row.

14:25 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
5	5 (5) (12/1 -50%) Tribesmans Glory	12 12/1(-50%)	(5) Tribesmans Glory 12/1, Fair winning chaser for Tom George in 2020 and belatedly opened account for this yard when narrowly prevailing at Warwick (2½m, good to soft) last time. 4 lb rise fair enough and will be a threat, provided the likely faster surface here doesn't count against him. Ended a losing run going back to October 2020 when winning at Warwick in May..
1	11 1st (11) (12/1 -50%) She Has Notions	12 12/1(-50%)	(11) She Has Notions 12/1, Little in the way of solid form over hurdles and while he wasn't entirely disgraced starting out in this sphere at Hereford in January, it would be an understatement to say that he failed to build on that next time. Has showed little in two starts over fences and best watched on first run since February..
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 -25%) Jac Jumper	5 5/1(-25%)	(1) Jac Jumper 5/1, Hurdles winner and placed over fences for Francois Nicolle in France. No show first 4 starts in handicap hurdles for this yard but just touched off by Calvic over this C&D returned to the larger obstacles 18 days ago. 1 lb better off with that rival now and it should again be close between them. Short-headed by Calvic on return to fences here last month; chance..
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 -33%) Gone In Sixty	10 10/1(-33%)	(6) Gone In Sixty 10/1, Remains a maiden following 20 starts overall but boasts bits and pieces of form which look solid in the context of this race, including when third off reduced mark over C&D (good to soft) last time. Should make his presence felt once more. Respectable third over C&D last month on return to chasing but others are preferred..
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 -56%) Calvic	7 7/1(-56%)	(2) Calvic 7/1, Off the mark at second attempt for new yard when taking 8-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon in March. Doubled his tally in this sphere when collaring Jac Jumper close home in first-time cheekpieces (retained) over C&D recently. More needed up 6 lb but he should be in the mix nonetheless. Got up in final strides to deny Jac Jumper over C&D last month; may win again..
5th	12 5th (12) (100/1 -525%) Silver Atom	100 100/1(-525%)	(12) Silver Atom 100/1, Tasted success on the Flat at Bath last year and several creditable efforts over hurdles in recent months. However, it's hard to take any positives from his recent chase debut display. Less encouraging recently and always behind on chasing debut ten days ago..
6th	9 6th (9) (100/1 -614%) Sevenofus	100 100/1(-614%)	(9) Sevenofus 100/1, Point winner who was placed several times over hurdles and also in the money both completed starts in this sphere. Far from disgraced back hurdling at Newton Abbot (26.5f, good) last time but will need to raise her game back over fences if she's to finally open her Rules account. Placed at Taunton in February and March; has each-way claims..
7th	8 7th (8) (400/1 -900%) Always Force It	400 400/1(-900%)	(8) Always Force It 400/1, Shaped well in pair of handicap hurdles for Gavin Cromwell last autumn but no show in 6 starts for present yard, including switched to fences the last twice. 0-12 and well beaten on his two starts over fences; others more persuasive..
8th	14 8th (14) (200/1 -700%) Drumlees Pet	200 200/1(-700%)	(14) Drumlees Pet 200/1, Winless following 5 attempts between the flags and 0-7 in this sphere after finishing out with the washing in first-time cheekpieces in a 3m Warwick handicap chase in April. 15 months off before soundly beaten in April in her two runs over fences.
13	13 \|U\| (13) (22/1 -57%) Testflight	22 22/1(-57%)	(13) Testflight 22/1, Bettered his low-key chase debut when third of 9 at Wincanton in October. Recent run over hurdles in Jersey will have blown away the cobwebs but he's 4 lb 'wrong' at the weights and will need to improve in order to shed his maiden tag here. 0-15 under rules; respectable third over fences at Wincanton last October..
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (80/1 -471%) Legostar	80 80/1(-471%)	(10) Legostar 80/1, Winning pointer but has shown little promise under Rules (in bumpers and over hurdles). Visor applied for this chase debut and he's hard to warm to. 1-9 in points; showed little in his four starts over hurdles; makes chasing debut..
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (250/1 -279%) Willwekeephim	250 250/1(-279%)	(7) Willwekeephim 250/1, Little impact over hurdles for this yard and will need to take a big step forward now switched to the larger obstacles. Makes chasing debut but well beaten on all starts in bumpers and over hurdles..
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (300/1 -4515%) Somekindofstar	300 300/1(-4515%)	(3) Somekindofstar 300/1, Lost his way for Charlie Longsdon but has finished in the money on 2 of his 3 starts for this yard, most recently finishing third of 8 in a Fakenham handicap chase (16.3f, good). Eased 3 lb and this step up in trip could work in his favour, so there is cause for optimism. Respectable third at Fakenham four weeks ago on first start in six months..
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (400/1 -7900%) Best Mate Dave	400 400/1(-7900%)	(4) Best Mate Dave 400/1, Made a winning handicap debut over hurdles here (2½m, good) last June and went close on his next appearance. Didn't shape at all badly following an 8-month absence/wind op when fourth back here over 23f last month and he could have a part to play if taking to fences at the first attempt. Had wind surgery before his fourth here one month ago; chasing debut..

The application of first-time cheekpieces got more out of last month's C&D winner Calvic. He must enter calculations, but a 6lb higher mark leaves him vulnerable and it might be worth taking a chance on SOMEKINDOFSTAR, who arrives on the back of a staying-on third over an extended 2m at Fakenham. The Matt Crawley-trained veteran should relish a return to this distance and a fifth career victory could beckon. Tribesmans Glory makes most appeal of the remainder.

While supporting a 20-race maiden is generally risky business, in the case of GONE IN SIXTY such a leap of faith is not required. Indeed, the 7-y-o has shown more than enough to suggest that he has a race of this nature in him off this sort of mark. Best Mate Dave is interesting on his debut in this sphere and is feared most ahead of Jac Jumper, who may well reverse recent C&D placings with Calvic. Tribesmans Glory was a winner last time and also enters calculations.

The most convincing form is the race here last month in which CALVIC got up on the line to beat Jac Jumper by a short head.

14:40 Pontefract Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +27%) Cavalier Approach	4 4/1(+27%)	(1) Cavalier Approach 4/1, 3-time winner at 5/6f last season who did too much too soon in first-time blinkers (retained here) when fifth of 10 in handicap (8/1) at Ayr (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago. However, his mark is easing all the time and he's not discounted. Front-runner who's drawn to attack under Rossa Ryan and looks to have plenty in his favour.
2	8 2nd (8) (15/2 -67%) Glory Hyde	7.5 15/2(-67%)	(8) Glory Hyde 15/2, Not seen to best effect on penultimate start at Redcar (5f) and stepped up on previous efforts when winning 19-runner handicap at Thirsk (5f) 15 days ago, staying on to lead close home. That may not prove her limit now she's off the mark. Better since returned to turf and today's stiffer 5f should suit; on the shortlist.
2	11 2nd (11) (22/1 -83%) Protest Rally	22 22/1(-83%)	(11) Protest Rally 22/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in June. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm, 6/5) 7 days ago, not clear run 1f out and keeping on. Held a couple of times off his revised mark since his Musselburgh win; stall 11 tough.
4	2 4th (2) (66/1 -725%) Let's Go Hugo	66 66/1(-725%)	(2) Let's Go Hugo 66/1, Latest win at Newcastle (5f) in April. 10/1, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, good to firm) 23 days ago, keeping on until last ½f. Return to 5f rates a likely plus here and he's not out of things. Has continued in form since his Tapeta win off 3lb lower; player if getting some luck.
5th	7 5th (7) (16/1 -60%) Gis A Sub	16 16/1(-60%)	(7) Gis A Sub 16/1, Sole success from 23 starts came here as a juvenile in 2021 for Kevin Ryan. Fallen long way in weights and shaped better than the bare result when sixth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f) 26 days ago, coming from a long way back. Not one to give up on. Cheekpieces back on. Long time since he finished placed and he never looked like justifying support last time.
6th	3 6th (3) (28/1 -460%) Sound Reason	28 28/1(-460%)	(3) Sound Reason 28/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Good fourth of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm, 7/2) 19 days ago. Refitting of blinkers may put an extra edge on him and he comes here operating 8 lb below last winning mark. Ideally suited by a stiff 5f and has to enter calculations after a solid effort last time.
7th	9 7th (9) (50/1 -257%) Secret Command	50 50/1(-257%)	(9) Secret Command 50/1, Improved performer this year, confirming reappearance promise when doubling career tally at Catterick (5f) prior to a respectable 1¼ lengths fifth of 19 to Glory Hyde in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good, 10/1) 15 days ago. Closely matched with Glory Hyde on latest Thirsk running (5lb better off); one to consider.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -1233%) Havagomecca	80 80/1(-1233%)	(6) Havagomecca 80/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Creditable 1½ lengths second of 8 to Protest Rally in handicap (9/4) at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 18 days ago, no extra final 50 yds. Another who is lurking on a handy mark but her draw in 10 makes things tricky. Has regressed in the past year but found her level again now; is one to consider.
9th	4 9th (4) (33/1 -500%) Mereside Angel	33 33/1(-500%)	(4) Mereside Angel 33/1, Dual 5f winner who comes here on a losing run but attracted support and ran best race of the present campaign when third of 9 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to soft, 5/1) 13 days ago, caught further back than the pair who beat him. One to bear in mind. Well handicapped and back in form (race didn't pan out his way last time); should go well.
10th	12 10th (12) (100/1 -300%) Mr Stanley	100 100/1(-300%)	(12) Mr Stanley 100/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 5/1) in February, beaten over 1f out. Subsequent break needs to have had positive effect. Nothing from this yard can be discounted currently but he isn't obviously fancied.
11th	10 11th (10) (28/1 -12%) Never This Way	28 28/1(-12%)	(10) Never This Way 28/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to firm, 12/1) 10 days ago, held up and never involved. Eyeshields on 1st time but likely best watched until showing more. Ex-William Haggas maiden who's regressed this year; new headgear needs to work.
12th	5 12th (5) (66/1 -500%) Astapor	66 66/1(-500%)	(5) Astapor 66/1, Had a productive 2023 campaign, winning 4 times (including over C&D) and left a very low-key reappearance effort in his wake when winning 8-runner Hamilton handicap (5f) in May. Struggled in class 4 company at Haydock latest but this drop back down in class rates a plus. At his best this time last year but stall 12 is as bad as it gets for a front-runner.

Havagomecca posted her best performance of 2024 when finishing second at Musselburgh last time out and Michael Dods' mare must enter the reckoning off an unchanged mark. However, GLORY HYDE arrives on the back of a breakthrough victory in a 19-runner affair at Thirsk and the daughter of Cotai Glory appears to have been let in lightly racing off just 4lb higher. Mereside Angel and Sound Reason are also noted.

GIS A SUB's losing run tempers enthusiasm but he arrives having shaped better than the bare result when sixth at Ripon 26 days ago, coming from a long way and ending up widest of all. Lurking on a dangerous mark, he could be worth chancing to end the drought. Thirsk scorer Glory Hyde, Cavalier Approach and Secret Command are others to consider in a competitive contest.

This can go to SOUND REASON, who's on a career-low mark after a solid effort last time. The well-treated Havagomecca is next best.

14:55 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 23f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (8/1 -33%) Hidden Depths	8 8/1(-33%)	(3) Hidden Depths 8/1, Proved better than ever when doubling his chase tally at Sedgefield in October and respectable efforts over fences/on Flat next 2 starts. Shaped as if better for the run after 7 months off/following wind op at Bath 24 days ago and better showing anticipated. 2-6 over fences; suited by good ground and a possible on second run after wind op.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 +23%) Almazhar Garde	5 5/1(+23%)	(5) Almazhar Garde 5/1, Finished runner-up 3 times earlier this year and belatedly cashed in off his much-reduced mark to end lengthy losing run at Bangor (3m) 23 days ago, asserting from 2f out and keeping on well. Overall record suggests he's not an obvious type to follow up, however. Ended losing run latest; conditions suit and not ruled out despite going back up 7lb.
3	2 3rd (2) (33/1 -560%) Goose Man	33 33/1(-560%)	(2) Goose Man 33/1, Useful chaser for Tom Taaffe who was able to defy a lay-off of fully 32 months to win selling handicap hurdle on the bridle at Huntingdon in November. Mixed bag over fences since, plugging on for fourth at Fakenham (21.2f) 4 weeks ago. Won selling hurdle after 972 days off in November; fair form chasing since; on a good mark.
4	4 4th (4) (33/1 -725%) Bbold	33 33/1(-725%)	(4) Bbold 33/1, Holding form well for this yard and ended a losing run dropped back in trip when landing 8-runner Stratford handicap chase (22.6f) 2 weeks ago, asserting final 50 yds. Rates a big player from 6 lb higher mark. Consistent this summer, winning over 2m6f latest (sound form); back up 6lb; obvious chance.
5th	1 5th (1) (150/1 -4900%) Ajp Kingdom	150 150/1(-4900%)	(1) Ajp Kingdom 150/1, Bumper/3-time novice hurdle winner who left a trio of poor efforts in his wake when runner-up in a C&D handicap chase 18 days ago, that despite going right at most of his obstacles. Task is to build on that and player if doing so. Inconsistent but 3 hurdle wins last summer; back in form when 2nd over C&D latest; chance.
7	7 \|U\| (7) (100/1 -2122%) Urban Grit	100 100/1(-2122%)	(7) Urban Grit 100/1, Modest maiden hurdler earlier in career. Fell in a hunter chase contest at Stratford (22.6f) 13 months ago but successful in points either side of that effort, runner-up last time (May 22). Booking of Harry Cobden catches the eye ahead of his handicap chase debut. Tongue tied. Fair hurdler for Olly Murphy; has since won 4 points; conditions suit; quite interesting.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (100/1 -1011%) Yes Indeed	100 100/1(-1011%)	(6) Yes Indeed 100/1, Fairly useful winning chaser in France and some decent placed efforts for this yard last year. Struggled to find best form earlier this year but did at least fare a little better fitted with a visor when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter 25 days ago. Needs to build on that now. Chase winner in France in 2021; fair run in retained headgear last time; career-low mark.

BBOLD rolled back the years when scoring for the first time since 2022 at Stratford recently and the Daisy Hitchins-trained 10-year-old appeared to have enough in hand to suggest that he can defy a 6lb rise in the ratings. The biggest threat could be posed by last-time-out Bangor winner Almazhar Garde, although the class-dropping Ajp Kingdom returned to form with a solid second over track and trip and is a contender too.

BBOLD has been in good order since joining his present yard, well served by the drop back in trip when running out a convincing winner at Stratford 13 days ago. He's fancied to handle the 6 lb rise and come out on top again. Hidden Depths, with a reappearance spin on the Flat under his belt, and Ajp Kingdom may emerge as the chief threats.

In a trappy race BBOLD is taken to follow up his win at Stratford two weeks ago. Ajp Kingdom is another who should go well.

1	6 1st (6) (6/1 -33%) Unspoken Love	6 6/1(-33%)	(6) Unspoken Love 6/1, Soldier's Call filly who was placed first 2 starts in maidens and was forced to work hard when opening her account in 5-runner Musselburgh seller (5f) 18 days ago. However, she's not ruled out back in this stronger company. Bang there on all three starts; won by a neck in seller latest and bought in for £22,000.
2	5 2nd (5) (12/1 -167%) Sunshine Soul	12 12/1(-167%)	(5) Sunshine Soul 12/1, Mehmas filly who impressed with the way she travelled when second behind subsequent Queen Mary winner Leovanni in maiden at Nottingham (5f) on debut last month. Ran no sort of race when last of 7 at York 17 days ago but no surprise to see her get back on track. Debut 2nd; flopped at York nine days later but perhaps good to soft ground was to blame.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 -146%) Guns Firing	16 16/1(-146%)	(2) Guns Firing 16/1, Foaled March 23. 180,000 gns yearling, New Bay filly. Sister to smart winner up to 7f Jumby and half-sister to several winners, including 6f-1m winner Conflict. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner. Makes plenty of appeal on paper and she's one to note in the betting for yard who landed this race 12 months ago. 180,000gns yearling; sister to 6f-7f winner Jumby (RPR 116), half-sister to four winners.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 -800%) Ardeur	9 9/1(-800%)	(1) Ardeur 9/1, Promising daughter of Kameko who had clearly derived plenty from her debut effort when readily landing 6-runner C&D maiden 3 weeks ago, making all. Sound claims under a penalty with the prospect of more to come. Promising at York and no problems when long odds-on in a six-runner maiden over C&D (good).
5th	4 5th (4) (66/1 -780%) She Went Whoosh	66 66/1(-780%)	(4) She Went Whoosh 66/1, Foaled February 13. 82,000 gns 2-y-o, Profitable filly. Produced a promising first effort when second of 7 in maiden at Ripon (5f, good) on debut 12 days ago, running on without being knocked about. Should progress. 5-1, slow-starting second of seven in maiden at Ripon (5f, soft) 12 days ago.
6th	3 6th (3) (100/1 -300%) Indy's Angel	100 100/1(-300%)	(3) Indy's Angel 100/1, Foaled March 2. Harry Angel filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including winner up to 6f Cool Spirit and winner up to 7f Fircombe Hall. Likely best watched on debut. Bred for speed but needs to be good to win this on debut.

ARDEUR was quite taking when making all to open her account over C&D last month and she rates as the one to beat. The Kameko filly had that contest sewn up some way out and she can repel fellow last-time-out winner Unspoken Love. Karl Burke's filly displayed a willing attitude to score at Musselburgh, which should stand her in good stead going forward. York disappointment Sunshine Soul could also prove a threat now returned to quicker ground conditions.

ARDEUR had clearly derived plenty from her promising debut effort when running out a ready winner of a C&D maiden 3 weeks ago and Ralp Beckett's filly may well be up to conceding weight all round and coming out on top again. Sunshine Soul ran no sort of race at York on her latest outing but is a clear threat on her debut form. Musselburgh-scorer Unspoken Love can also figure back up in class.

Improvement from SHE WENT WHOOSH may win her this race following her debut second at Ripon.

5th	2 5th (2) (300/1 -10809%) Hola Hermosa	300 300/1(-10809%)	(2) Hola Hermosa 300/1, Well backed on debut when offering up little and showed why as she left that form well behind after 9 weeks off when third at Stratford. Could do better again. Stoutly bred; improved on debut when 3rd at Stratford last time; may improve again.
6th	4 6th (4) (300/1 -6567%) Shakiyra	300 300/1(-6567%)	(4) Shakiyra 300/1, Half-sister to fair 2m hurdle winner Call Me Tara, stays 2¼m. Dam placed in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful staying hurdler/chaser Caddie Master. Backed off the boards but held back by inexperience when last of 5 at Newton Abbot nearly a year ago. Last of five when 4-9 for Newton Abbot bumper last July; not been out since.
7th	10 7th (10) (400/1 -3900%) Put A Lid On It	400 400/1(-3900%)	(10) Put A Lid On It 400/1, Dartmouth filly. Dam placed in French hurdles, half-sister to Cheltenham Gold Cup winner Sizing John. Of obvious interest on debut. 1 of 3 runners for the yard. By Dartmouth out of a mare who was placed over hurdles in France; not an obvious one.
8th	5 8th (5) (250/1 -7043%) All Inn Hand	250 250/1(-7043%)	(5) All Inn Hand 250/1, Sister to fair hurdler Maid On The Moon. Dam bumper/17f-2½m hurdle winner (stayed 23f), from family of Champion Hurdle winners Morley Street and Granville Again. Probably one for later on but offered a degree of short-term promise in Uttoxeter bumper (17/2) on recent debut. Promising 3rd behind 2 winning pointers on bumper debut last month; should improve.
9th	3 9th (3) (350/1 -600%) Lizzie's Star	350 350/1(-600%)	(3) Lizzie's Star 350/1, Unplaced completed start in points (May 31). Some promise in two runs in British points; tougher task on rules debut.
10th	9 10th (9) (400/1 -3900%) Kalize	400 400/1(-3900%)	(9) Kalize 400/1, Prominent in the betting but achieved nothing on debut in Uttoxeter bumper fitted with tongue tie 12 weeks ago. Well beaten at 16-5 on bumper debut; has since had a wind op and may well fare better..
11th	8 11th (8) (400/1 -3233%) Granny Smith	400 400/1(-3233%)	(8) Granny Smith 400/1, Unplaced on her sole outing in points but offered something to work on in Uttoxeter bumper (20/1) a fortnight ago. Ordinary form; has ground to make up on All Inn Hand on last month's Uttoxeter bumper run.
12th	6 12th (6) (300/1 -1400%) County Royal	300 300/1(-1400%)	(6) County Royal 300/1, Leading Light filly. Closely related to a winner, and half-sister to 3 winners, including fair hurdler/chaser Gentleman Duke, stayed 2½m. Dam ran once on Flat. By Leading Light; four of her siblings have won over jumps; worth a market check on debut.

Hola Hermosa offered much more encouragement with her placed effort at Stratford and she isn't taken lightly. However, ALL INN HAND is entitled to build on her opening third at Uttoxeter and any improvement should make her difficult to pass. Point-to-point runner-up Back In The Bay possesses enough speed in her pedigree to suggest that she could play a part on her Rules debut, and the market may prove informative.

HOLA HERMOSA showed much more second time up at Stratford 6 weeks ago and might be able to open her account on the back of that. Stablemate Put A Lid On It and Queen of The Vale are interesting newcomers and the betting could be revealing.

Having shaped with a degree of promise on her debut at Uttoxeter the vote goes to ALL INN HAND. Hola Hermosa should also run well.

1	5 1st (5) (28/1 -250%) Magnum Opus	28 28/1(-250%)	(5) Magnum Opus 28/1, Improved with each of his 3 runs at 2 yrs, culminating in a fairly decisive success at Chelmsford (1m) in November. Gelded/fitted with a visor (discarded here), proved too keen on return/handicap debut at Sandown in April but he's not one to write off. Pulled hard on return; yard 7-19 here and be interesting to see how he goes in the market.
2	3 2nd (3) (33/1 -175%) Tele Red	33 33/1(-175%)	(3) Tele Red 33/1, Course winner who bagged a third victory of 2023 at Ayr (1m, soft) in October. Not in same form when fifth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Newcastle (1m) on final outing in November and this first start for 7 months may well bring him on. Resumes from eight months off on a career-high mark at the age of seven; bit on his plate.
3	1 3rd (1) (100/1 -614%) Bennetot	100 100/1(-614%)	(1) Bennetot 100/1, Useful performer in France but well below best in couple of starts upon joining present stable last term and he's finished nearer last than first in a couple of starts upon returning to action this spring. Mark continues to ease but he's a good bit to prove at present. Down in trip. Handicapper easing off quickly but would want to see some support before considering him.
4	2 4th (2) (33/1 -175%) On The River	33 33/1(-175%)	(2) On The River 33/1, Dual C&D winner who resumed winning ways here in April. Hasn't figured in a couple of starts from his inflated mark at Nottingham/Doncaster more recently but return to this venue rates a plus, though easier ground would suit ideally. Return here should help but he could use more than the odd shower; high in the weights too.
5th	8 5th (8) (66/1 -1550%) Aviemore	66 66/1(-1550%)	(8) Aviemore 66/1, Son of Kodiac who has displayed fairly useful form in finishing runner-up on 2 of his 3 starts in novice/maiden company at up to 9f in recent months. No reason why he won't make his mark now handicapping and he's respected. Two seconds on soft ground round Carlisle; will have to improve off this opening mark.
6th	4 6th (4) (100/1 -900%) Freedom Day	100 100/1(-900%)	(4) Freedom Day 100/1, Won a Redcar novice (1m) on final start for John and Thady Gosden last spring. Changed hands for 40,000 gns and exploits proved somewhat mixed in handful of starts thereafter last term. Off 9 months ahead of this but it remains relatively early days with him. Hood on 1st time. Goes in first-time headgear back from nine months off and is ultimately hard to fancy.
7th	7 7th (7) (25/1 -456%) Savvy Exchange	25 25/1(-456%)	(7) Savvy Exchange 25/1, Confirmed the promise of his debut run when winning 3-runner C&D maiden on seasonal bow in May. Similar form under a penalty when fifth of 10 in minor event at Windsor (8.1f) 21 days ago and switch to handicaps rates a plus. Found it too much under a penalty in novice company latest; needs more now handicapping.
8th	9 8th (9) (16/1 -167%) Colorada Dancer	16 16/1(-167%)	(9) Colorada Dancer 16/1, York maiden winner (7.9f) in October who stepped up a little on his reappearance run without being seen to best effect when sixth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7.6f, good, 9/2) 17 days ago, no room 2f out. Not one to write off. Offered more at Chester last time (hit traffic) and is 2lb lower, so needs considering.
9th	6 9th (6) (40/1 -1500%) Old Cock	40 40/1(-1500%)	(6) Old Cock 40/1, Confirmed debut promise switched to turf when won 5-runner maiden (1/4) at Ayr (8f, good to soft) in April and took another marked step forward to follow up on handicap debut at Haydock (10.2f) 24 days ago, edging out a fellow improver. Big player with prospect of more to come. Return to 1m perhaps not optimal but he remains open to further improvement upped 6lb.

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

OLD COCK has had an excellent start to his career and he showed more than enough pace when scoring over 1m2f last time out at Haydock to suggest that he can handle the drop back to a mile on this occasion. Runner-up on his previous two starts at Carlisle, Aviemore must be of interest on his handicap debut, while Savvy Exchange has strong claims on his C&D success, rather than his subsequent Windsor defeat.

Having landed an Ayr maiden on his reappearance, OLD COCK found further progress to edge out another improving sort over this sort of trip at Haydock 24 days ago and he looks to hold serious claims again in his hat-trick bid. Handicap-debutants Aviemore and Savvy Exchange are others fancied to figure.

This can go to OLD COCK, who can defy a 6lb rise at the main expense of Colorada Dancer, who didn't get the breaks at Chester.

5	5 (5) (40/1 -100%) Spitfire Bridge	40 40/1(-100%)	(5) Spitfire Bridge 40/1, Showed ability in bumpers but no impact on the Flat since and poor form when fifth on Huntingdon hurdle debut. Modest efforts in bumpers, on the Flat and over hurdles; more needed.
8	8 (8) (100/1 -100%) Brief Encounter	100 100/1(-100%)	(8) Brief Encounter 100/1, Well held both starts in bumpers and pulled up on recent hurdle debut. Modest form in two bumpers; pulled up early after jockey lost his irons on hurdles debut.
1	2 1st (2) (8/11 +34%) Vocito	0.727273 8/11(+34%)	(2) Vocito 8/11, In good form for new yard, finishing second in a Perth maiden before going one better in a similar race over C&D 4 weeks later. Another bold show is on the cards. Off the mark on second start for Olly Murphy; not ruled out despite penalty.
2	1 2nd (1) (350/1 -6264%) Captain Attridge	350 350/1(-6264%)	(1) Captain Attridge 350/1, Came good on 2m Hereford handicap debut in May and better form when runner-up there 17 days later. Should be competitive under a penalty back in a novice. Fair form on the Flat and won Hereford novice handicap hurdle in May; could go well.
3	12 3rd (12) (100/1 -1567%) Moonscape Girl	100 100/1(-1567%)	(12) Moonscape Girl 100/1, Left her first 2 efforts behind when springing an 80/1 surprise in Southwell bumper for Paul Webber in May. Has joined a good yard ahead of her hurdle debut and it'll be very interesting to see how she compares in the betting to new stablemate Vocito. Improved run when 80-1 winner of a bumper last time; interesting on hurdles/stable debut.
4	11 4th (11) (80/1 -789%) Molly Mischief	80 80/1(-789%)	(11) Molly Mischief 80/1, Progressive in AW Flat handicaps this year, winning convincingly over 11f at Southwell in April. Possible testing ground was against her when pulled up on Southwell hurdle debut in May and could prove a different proposition now. 1m3f AW winner on the Flat; didn't show much on hurdles/turf debut; should do better.
5th	3 5th (3) (250/1 -658%) Selectivelistening	250 250/1(-658%)	(3) Selectivelistening 250/1, Well held on his completed starts in points and similar story in 2 C&D maiden hurdles last month. Looks more one for handicaps. Modest pointer who was well behind Vocito over C&D last time; looks more one for handicaps.
6th	6 6th (6) (350/1 -3789%) Jazzmina Queen	350 350/1(-3789%)	(6) Jazzmina Queen 350/1, From top yard but no show in bumper/novice hurdle. Stable in form but needs to improve after modest efforts in a bumper and a novice hurdle.
7th	10 7th (10) (300/1 -3900%) Jo's Rainbow	300 300/1(-3900%)	(10) Jo's Rainbow 300/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¼m) for Karl Burke. Joined another leading stable for her hurdle career but shaped like a non-stayer on her first attempt at Hereford. 1m2f Flat winner; 20,000gns buy February; didn't get home on jumps debut; better expected.
8th	7 8th (7) (300/1 -650%) Vertical	300 300/1(-650%)	(7) Vertical 300/1, Poor maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m) for Dr Jon Scargill. A watching brief is advised on hurdle debut for new yard with a first-time hood added. Modest form at up to 1m3f on the Flat; best watched on stable/hurdles debut.
9th	9 9th (9) (450/1 -1700%) Dawn Parade	450 450/1(-1700%)	(9) Dawn Parade 450/1, Well held in a Huntingdon bumper in May and sent off at 80/1 when unseating at the first on her hurdle debut 17 days ago. Some promise in a bumper; unseated rider first on hurdles debut; plenty to prove.
10th	4 10th (4) (250/1 -1686%) Sixfiveseven	250 250/1(-1686%)	(4) Sixfiveseven 250/1, Fairly useful form when placed in maidens around 1¼m on Flat in France for Tim Donworth but tailed off when falling at the last on Fontwell hurdle debut in November for Syd Hosie. Has had wind surgery ahead of this return for a new stable. Check the betting. Tailed off when falling at the last on debut; wind op since; best watched on yard debut.

Captain Attridge's recent Hereford second hasn't worked out particularly well but Henry Oliver's in-form gelding merits respect, while shock Southwell bumper winner Moonscape Girl, a half-sister to the useful Thecompanysergeant, is an interesting contender ahead of her hurdling bow. Her stablemate VOCITO has looked rejuvenated since joining the Olly Murphy team, though, and he's taken to follow up last month's C&D triumph.

Olly Murphy holds a very strong hand here, with the Sean Bowen-ridden VOCITO preferred to his new stablemate and hurdle-debutante Moonscape Girl before any betting clues are known. Captain Attridge looks best of the rest.

The choice is MOONSCAPE GIRLp, who showed improved form to win a bumper last time. Stablemat \bVocito looks her main danger.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
6	6 (6) (14/1 -17%) Spear Fir	14 14/1(-17%)	(6) Spear Fir 14/1, Lightly-raced filly who finished runner-up on 3 occasions during 2022. Seen only once last season, seventh of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, soft) 14 months ago. Market should prove a useful guide on this belated return. Maiden who hasn't been seen since well held on soft last spring; entitled to need this.
1	1 1st (1) (7/2 -5%) Late Arrival	3.5 7/2(-5%)	(1) Late Arrival 7/2, C&D winner who resumed winning ways at Southwell (6f) in March. Good placed efforts on 2 of his 3 starts since, second of 13 in handicap (12/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 24 days ago. On a workable mark and he's one to consider. Came back to form last time and holds leading claims once more back over a stiffer 6f.
2	9 2nd (9) (5/2 +77%) Variety Island	2.5 5/2(+77%)	(9) Variety Island 5/2, Ended long losing run at Catterick (7f) in April. Merely ticked over in handful of starts subsequently, respectable fourth of 18 in minor event (9/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Another holding each-way claims. Better last week but that was only a 0-50 and he was a good way off the front pair.
3	3 3rd (3) (17/2 -55%) Dicko The Legend	8.5 17/2(-55%)	(3) Dicko The Legend 17/2, Dual AW winner for Roger Ingram last year who stepped up on his yard debut effort when third of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good to firm, 10/1) 19 days ago, staying on final 1f. This mark not beyond him on that evidence. Step back up to 6f should work in his favour and he goes on the shortlist.
4	5 4th (5) (9/1 -38%) Macarone	9 9/1(-38%)	(5) Macarone 9/1, Won twice on turf/AW last season and returned to action with a respectable third in an 8-runner C&D handicap in April. Some way below form when thirteenth of 19 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 15 days ago but he's not one to be writing off. Well held at Thirsk last time and the outside stall is a concern given he often pulls hard.
5th	4 5th (4) (17/2 +29%) Motagally	8.5 17/2(+29%)	(4) Motagally 17/2, Unreliable type. Twenty two runs since last win in 2020. Probably needed the run after 6 months off when seventh of 11 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good) 16 days ago, no extra final 1f. Still, it's hard to know which way he'll go from that effort and others preferred. Come around a stone down the weights in the past year; fair comeback recently.
6th	7 6th (7) (100/1 -1150%) Rain Cap	100 100/1(-1150%)	(7) Rain Cap 100/1, Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, soft, 16/1) 14 days ago, seeming to find the test inadequate. Each-way possibilities from this mark. High summer has always been his time and arrives in fair form but is high in the weights.
7th	2 7th (2) (28/1 -741%) Daytona Lady	28 28/1(-741%)	(2) Daytona Lady 28/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to soft, 17/2) 20 days ago, staying on to lead last ½f and always holding on. 5 lb rise shouldn't prevent another good showing in this groove. Showed she can do it on turf last time; a 5lb rise leaves little room for manoeuvre.
8th	8 8th (8) (40/1 -515%) Crack The Kode	40 40/1(-515%)	(8) Crack The Kode 40/1, 12/1, respectable sixth of 14 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good to firm) 23 days ago, headway when short of room final 1f. Given a chance by the assessor. Better without having much luck since the blinkers went on; down another 3lb.

Although winless on turf since July 2022, LATE ARRIVAL shaped with plenty of encouragement when second at Thirsk last time out and this appeal as an ideal opportunity. The seven-year-old has operated off higher marks in the past and he is preferred to Wetherby scorer Daytona Lady and Dicko The Legend, who bounced back to form with a strong placed effort at Hamilton last month.

C&D winner LATE ARRIVAL was quickly back to form when runner-up over this trip at Thirsk 24 days ago and he looks to hold sound claims of going one place better from this sort of mark. Wetherby-scorer Daytona Lady and Dicko The Legend are others to consider. Macarone is another not to give up on if dispelling his latest effort.

Successful in this race two years ago, everything looks in place for LATE ARRIVAL (nap). Dicko The Legend is second choice.

12	12 (12) (14/1 -40%) Royal Sam	14 14/1(-40%)	(12) Royal Sam 14/1, Point winner but still a maiden under Rules. Recent chase efforts underwhelming but his mark has come down and well treated if a return to hurdles sparks a revival with Harry Cobden doing the steering. First start over hurdles for this stable after five unsuccessful runs over fences..
9	9 (9) (14/1 -87%) Caspers Court	14 14/1(-87%)	(9) Caspers Court 14/1, On a career-low and turned in one of his best recent efforts when second of 5 at Newton Abbot (21.5f, soft) 33 days ago. Cheekpieces refitted. Ought to be competitive. Second at Newton Abbot in May but vulnerable to less exposed rivals..
1	13 1st (13) (33/1 +50%) Indian Sunbird	33 33/1(+50%)	(13) Indian Sunbird 33/1, Poor maiden. Had the reopposing Perfect Arch 15 lengths ahead in second when fifth of 9 at Market Rasen (20.5f, good) 24 days ago. Did not show enough in his two starts since returning from seven-month break..
2	7 2nd (7) (50/1 -213%) Catuaba	50 50/1(-213%)	(7) Catuaba 50/1, Made a winning handicap debut over hurdles at Warwick (25f) last May. Pulled up in chases 6 months apart on his last 2 outings and needs a return to hurdles and first-time blinkers to help spark a revival. Won off this mark at Warwick in May 2023; pulled up switched to fences last two starts..
3	2 3rd (2) (33/1 -560%) Getaway Glory	33 33/1(-560%)	(2) Getaway Glory 33/1, Winning pointer who surpassed his hurdles form when making a winning chase debut at Huntingdon (3m) in April. Better form when placed twice over 3m at Bangor since and major player if able to translate that form back to hurdles. Reverts to hurdles after showing improvement with switch to fences..
4	8 4th (8) (350/1 -10411%) Hugueneau	350 350/1(-10411%)	(8) Hugueneau 350/1, Overcame interference to force a dead heat at Huntingdon (19.5f, good to soft) 6 weeks ago and was awarded the race outright in the stewards' room. A 2 lb rise is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Awarded the race when forcing a dead-heat at Huntingdon last time; steps up in distance..
5th	3 5th (3) (400/1 -7173%) Fine By Me	400 400/1(-7173%)	(3) Fine By Me 400/1, Added to his decent record fresh when returning from 8 months to finish second of 12 at Southwell (3m) 4 weeks ago. Perhaps not sure to build on that if previous campaigns are a guide. Only one win over hurdles but ran creditably when second at Southwell last month..
6th	5 6th (5) (80/1 -220%) Private Pike	80 80/1(-220%)	(5) Private Pike 80/1, Showed a bit in trio of qualifying runs last season but off since pulling up on his Southwell handicap debut in January.

7th	1 7th (1) (300/1 -1100%) Rocco Royale	300 300/1(-1100%)	(1) Rocco Royale 300/1, Fair form when winning a Fontwell maiden in spring 2023 but no show in 4 handicaps since.

8th	10 8th (10) (300/1 -2627%) Perfect Arch	300 300/1(-2627%)	(10) Perfect Arch 300/1, Still a maiden but placed in handicaps on the Flat and over hurdles for his new yard in recent months. Another who can't be discounted. Encouraging second at Market Rasen last month; should not be far away..
9th	4 9th (4) (100/1 -2757%) Jolie Baie	100 100/1(-2757%)	(4) Jolie Baie 100/1, Course maiden hurdle winner last August who followed up in 3m Ffos Las handicap 9 months later. Unexposed at this trip and remains of interest up 6lb. Won here last August and followed up in May on step up in trip; can land the hat-trick..
6	6 \|B\| (6) (14/1 +44%) Borderline	14 14/1(+44%)	(6) Borderline 14/1, Modest form over hurdles for Martin Keighley and well held with a tongue tie added on his 2½m course debut for new yard last month. Has first-time cheekpieces added to the tongue strap now stepping up in trip. Maiden; soundly beaten in first-time tongue-tie for new stable here last month..
11	11 \|F\| (11) (25/1 -56%) Fortuitous Favour	25 25/1(-56%)	(11) Fortuitous Favour 25/1, Bumper winner who produced one of her better efforts over hurdles when third of 9 over 3m at Southwell in January but last of 5 in blinkers at Fontwell in March and off since. Last of five in first-time blinkers at Fontwell in March and needs to show more..
10th	14 10th (14) (150/1 -650%) Stripe Of Honour	150 150/1(-650%)	(14) Stripe Of Honour 150/1, Showed his effectiveness when fresh when second on 3m Southwell reappearance in May and possible he found the run coming too soon when well held back there only 13 days later. Both wins have come here; encouraging second at Southwell in May but tailed off last time..

A few with chances, but JOLIE BAIE sprung a surprise on her return from the sidelines at Ffos Las in May and a 6lb rise might not stop the unexposed five-year-old. Hugueneau forced a dead-heat for top honours, before placing first outright, over an extended 2m3f at Huntingdon last time out. This longer trip could unlock further improvement and he merits respect, as do Fine By Me and Caspers Court.

JOLIE BAIE probably did well to come from so far back to win at Ffos Las on her reappearance and further progress is a distinct possibility for a mare who is very much unexposed as a stayer. Dan Skelton's Huntingdon scorer Hugueneau rates an obvious danger, while Getaway Glory would be a threat to all if able to translate his recent chase form back to hurdles. Royal Sam has come down a long way in the weights and is one to note in the betting under Harry Cobden.

A tight contest but JOLIE BAIE can complete her hat-trick. Hugueneau is second best.

1	7 1st (7) (7/1 -27%) Coloane	7 7/1(-27%)	(7) Coloane 7/1, Remains a maiden after 18 starts. Raced wide when sixth of 7 in handicap (2/1) at Catterick (7f, soft) 39 days ago. Hood back on. Dangerously well handicapped. 18-race maiden; 14lb lower than when twice narrowly denied on AW last July.
2	3 2nd (3) (5/1 +0%) Indication Rocket	5 5/1(+0%)	(3) Indication Rocket 5/1, Back to form out of the blue when second of 8 in handicap at this course (1¼m, good) 8 days ago. Claims if he can back that up. Second at this track (1m2f) eight days ago, which has reignited some hopes.
3	10 3rd (10) (25/1 -25%) Premiership	25 25/1(-25%)	(10) Premiership 25/1, C&D winner but has yet to get going this season. Cheekpieces made no difference last time and blinkers are reached for now. Nothing this season, trying cheekpieces on latest start and now it's blinkers.
4	6 4th (6) (14/1 +0%) Mr Heinz	14 14/1(+0%)	(6) Mr Heinz 14/1, 22/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Ripon (1m, good to firm) 26 days ago. Needs to step up on this year's efforts to play a prominent role. Latest start (7th of 11 at Ripon) was his best this season and he needs to build on that.
5th	1 5th (1) (80/1 -3100%) True Nation	80 80/1(-3100%)	(1) True Nation 80/1, Winner at Nottingham in June. 4/1, creditable second of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Enters calculations. 1st and 2nd on last two starts; 3lb higher today but firmly in calculations in a weak race.
6th	8 6th (8) (80/1 -1500%) Doomsday	80 80/1(-1500%)	(8) Doomsday 80/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 16/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (1m, good to firm) 7 days ago, having run of race. 1-25; five seconds, including by a nose at Thirsk (1m) under 7lb claimer on latest start.
7th	2 7th (2) (100/1 -1233%) Tonal	100 100/1(-1233%)	(2) Tonal 100/1, 7/2, eighth of 9 in handicap at Yarmouth (1m, good to soft) 35 days ago but had been in good form on AW prior to that. Has a patchy profile but turf form (four races) has all been low-level stuff.
8th	5 8th (5) (100/1 -525%) Musical Masquerade	100 100/1(-525%)	(5) Musical Masquerade 100/1, Twelfth of 15 in handicap at Redcar (7f, soft, 33/1) 35 days ago. Was placed over C&D in May. Recent headgear is removed; 9lb lower than handicap debut and moves away from soft ground.
9th	13 9th (13) (100/1 -52%) Apache Angel	100 100/1(-52%)	(13) Apache Angel 100/1, Failed to beat a rival in 3 runs on Flat last year. Remote fourth of 5 in juvenile hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, soft, 14/1) 30 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Makes handicap debut. No worthwhile form after three Flat runs and one over hurdles; cheekpieces go on.
10th	11 10th (11) (100/1 -150%) Miss Rainstorm	100 100/1(-150%)	(11) Miss Rainstorm 100/1, 50/1 and cheekpieces on first time, ninth of 13 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good) 49 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Unraced beyond 6f (2024 runs were 5f) and hopes are pinned on this marked step up in trip.
11th	4 11th (4) (80/1 -400%) Moush	80 80/1(-400%)	(4) Moush 80/1, Remains a maiden after 17 starts. Sixth of 7 in handicap (28/1) at Hamilton (13., good to firm) 12 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Tudhope booked but others are more obvious. 17-race maiden who lacks persuasive claims judged on what he's done for new yard this term.
12th	9 12th (9) (100/1 -1329%) Grand Style	100 100/1(-1329%)	(9) Grand Style 100/1, 100/1, best effort of the season when fourth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (6f, good) 21 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Latest was easily her best result from seven races in Britain, but that was over 6f.
13th	12 13th (12) (100/1 -400%) Footonthegas	100 100/1(-400%)	(12) Footonthegas 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 12 in maiden (150/1) at Ripon (6f, good) 12 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Needs to show something very new but this is handicap debut on probably different ground.

Denied by the narrowest of margins at Thirsk last week, DOOMSDAY is able to compete off the same mark and he may be able to gain compensation. With conditions in his favour again, the five-year-old could have too much for the in-form True Nation, as well as Indication Rocket, who might be suited by the cut back in trip. Others to note include Footonthegas, Mr Heinz and Premiership.

COLOANE had a possible excuse when a beaten favourite at Catterick last time and might be worth one more chance as she continues to look well treated on the pick of last year's form. Richard Fahey's True Nation arrives in form and is second choice ahead of last Sunday's course runner-up Indication Rocket.

Most claims do not look at all bright at the moment. The clear exceptions are TRUE NATION, Indication Rocket and Doomsday.

3	3 (3) (18/1 -50%) Kentucky Bluegrass	18 18/1(-50%)	(3) Kentucky Bluegrass 18/1, Fairly useful on the Flat for David O'Meara and left his previous hurdling efforts behind when third in a Hereford maiden in May. Didn't make much impact in handicap at Uttoxeter (16.8f, 25 days ago), but he's not discounted given his ability on the level. Seventh of nine on handicap debut but this race looks weaker and he could figure..
12	12 (12) (40/1 -150%) Logistical	40 40/1(-150%)	(12) Logistical 40/1, Maiden on Flat/over hurdles who showed some promise in juvenile hurdles for Tom Lacey during second half of last year. Form has been going the wrong way for his current yard, though, well held on his last 3 outings (handicap hurdle debut on penultimate start). Well held on the AW latest but not completely ruled out on the pick of his hurdles form..
1	2 1st (2) (9/1 +18%) Afta Party	9 9/1(+18%)	(2) Afta Party 9/1, Opened his hurdles account in a Newton Abbot novice (16.8f) in October and, after a couple of lesser efforts, has shown better signs in handicaps at the same C&D on his last 2 starts. On a workable mark based on the pick of his form on the Flat. Sole win over hurdles came at 50-1; needs to improve on recent efforts but not ruled out..
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -43%) Electric Eddy	5 5/1(-43%)	(5) Electric Eddy 5/1, Signs of ability for Prunella Dobbs in Ireland and has been going the right way in 3 starts for his current yard, third in handicap at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good) on his latest outing. Could be ready to open his account with more still to offer. Progressing and a strong candidate in what looks a weak race..
3	6 3rd (6) (350/1 -2817%) Caldwell	350 350/1(-2817%)	(6) Caldwell 350/1, Won twice at Southwell on the Flat over the winter for Ivan Furtado, but back over hurdles he could finish only fifth of 9 in selling handicap at Fakenham (16f, good) on his stable debut 55 days ago. Has work to do. Well held in a seller on stable debut latest; others have more pressing claims..
4	1 4th (1) (200/1 -5906%) The Sad Shepherd	200 200/1(-5906%)	(1) The Sad Shepherd 200/1, Posted much his best effort for this yard when third in handicap at Stratford (18.7f) in May and filled the same position at Bangor (16.7f, good) 3 days ago, despite having not always been fluent. Can make his presence felt. Not entirely straightforward but has the ability to figure if in the mood..
5th	9 5th (9) (150/1 -355%) Jysuis	150 150/1(-355%)	(9) Jysuis 150/1, Placed all 3 starts in bumpers in France but yet to finish better than mid-field for his current yard, failing to improve for the switch to handicaps when eighth of 13 at Southwell (15.8f, good) 20 days ago. Others make more appeal. Down 3lb but a bit to prove; well beaten at 25-1 on last month's handicap debut..
6th	4 6th (4) (300/1 -3233%) Gerard Mentor	300 300/1(-3233%)	(4) Gerard Mentor 300/1, Winless since scoring 4 times in 2022 but took a step back in the right direction when fourth at Ludlow in May. Wasn't able to build on that effort at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) last time, though made a bad mistake 3 out so he's not one to write off. Winless since 2022 and comes with risks but capable of being in the mix..
7th	11 7th (11) (400/1 -2757%) Maggie O	400 400/1(-2757%)	(11) Maggie O 400/1, Irish point winner who got off the mark in this sphere on the back of a breathing op in handicap at Doncaster (16.6f) in November. However, has been below that level since, making little impression at Ludlow (21.2f, good) when last seen in April. Yet to build on her sole win but the step back in trip will be in her favour..
8th	8 8th (8) (450/1 -5525%) Ferrybridge	450 450/1(-5525%)	(8) Ferrybridge 450/1, Winning hurdler who opened his chase account at the third attempt at Huntingdon in March, albeit left clear at the last. Rare below-par effort at Stratford 13 days ago, but no surprise to see him bounce back returned to hurdling. Needs to leave a lesser effort over fences behind but not ruled out back over hurdles..
9th	7 9th (7) (450/1 -8900%) Virginia Lodge	450 450/1(-8900%)	(7) Virginia Lodge 450/1, Proved a different proposition to her debut when winning junior hurdle at Fakenham in November. Hasn't been able to repeat that effort in 2 starts since, but it still remains early days for her leading yard as she goes handicapping (has had a wind op). Modest efforts surround her sole win but she might do better after the wind surgery..
10th	10 10th (10) (450/1 -4400%) What A Flirth	450 450/1(-4400%)	(10) What A Flirth 450/1, Runner-up in an Irish point and showed some ability on her hurdles debut. Hasn't gone on from that in her 2 subsequent outings, leaving D. E. Prendergast/off 11 months prior to her latest run at Hexham 16 days ago. Could yet do better in handicaps, though. Well beaten on debut for Dan Skelton and looks the stable's second string..

This looks like a decent opportunity for ELECTRIC EDDY to get off the mark following a career-best effort when running on for third over slightly further at Newton Abbot. The six-year-old remains on the same rating and he may have too much for The Sad Shepherd, who would hold strong claims if bouncing back to the form of his penultimate third at Stratford. Ferrybridge and Kentucky Bluegrass are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

ELECTRIC EDDY seems to be building up to something for Nigel Twiston-Davies, producing his best effort when third at Newton Abbot last time (the winner scored again on his next outing), so he is taken to get off the mark this time around. The Sad Shepherd has returned to form on his last 2 starts and could be the biggest threat, ahead of Afta Party.

After his Newton Abbot third, ELECTRIC EDDY (nap) looks the pick ahead of the unexposed Kentucky Bluegrass.

2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 -33%) Historic City	6 6/1(-33%)	(7) Historic City 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 13 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 33/1) 26 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Visor on 1st time. Well-bred sort who could improve now handicapping although he needs to. Unexposed and he looks a possible improver now handicapping in headgear; needs close look.
3	8 3rd (8) (14/1 -40%) Chiefman	14 14/1(-40%)	(8) Chiefman 14/1, Opened his account in good style at Newcastle in March. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 5 in handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, good, 10/1) 21 days ago. Could do better back on AW. Newcastle winner but he needs to bounce back after a major blip at Carlisle.

5th	1 5th (1) (20/1 -43%) Prince Rasam	20 20/1(-43%)	(1) Prince Rasam 20/1, Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in 10f Chelmsford novice in September. Not beaten another rival in Group 3 and Chester handicap since. Hood on 1st time. Bit to prove. Won on debut but he's struggled in both runs since; hood is now added and has bit to prove.
6th	5 6th (5) (250/1 -6150%) Loveable Rogue	250 250/1(-6150%)	(5) Loveable Rogue 250/1, 5/1, won 10-runner maiden at Lingfield (9f, good to firm) 34 days ago, showing a good attitude to get the better of a protracted duel with the runner-up. That one won next time and she could do better now handicapping. Won Lingfield maiden latest and she's open to more progress on handicap debut; respected.
7th	6 7th (6) (200/1 -2757%) Endosser	200 200/1(-2757%)	(6) Endosser 200/1, 13/2, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 11 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Nine-race maiden who has lost his way and needs a major turnaround; blinkers added.
8th	4 8th (4) (200/1 -2757%) Character Testing	200 200/1(-2757%)	(4) Character Testing 200/1, Winner at Southwell in January. 15/2, fourth of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, good to firm) 34 days ago.

Loveable Rogue dug in to score over 1m1f on the turf course at Lingfield in May and she goes handicapping from a fair opening mark, but a chance is taken on PRINCE RASAM. Michael Bell's gelding has been disappointing since defeating subsequent Derby fourth Deira Mile on his debut last September, but a first-time hood is now employed and that could give him a boost. Others to note include Historic City and Character Testing.

LOVEABLE ROGUE has made a good start, beating a subsequent winner when opening her account at Lingfield, and could have more to offer still now handicapping. She gets the vote over Caelan and Chiefman who may bounce back returned to AW.

Most of these have something to prove but LOVEABLE ROGUE won at Lingfield last time and is open to more progress on her handicap debut.

Not in same form at Ffos Las (15.8f, good) subsequently and now heads up in trip. Not beaten far on handicap debut but latest run was underwhelming; new trip today.
2	7 2nd (7) (33/1 -175%) Boot 'n' Shoe	33 33/1(-175%)	(7) Boot 'n' Shoe 33/1, Shaped better than previously sent handicapping in tongue strap/cheekpieces when fourth of 16 in handicap at Kelso in May but unable to build on that subsequently at Market Rasen (20.6f, good). Mark eases another 3 lb and he remains low mileage. Made promising handicap debut in May but needs to bounce back from a poor run last month.
3	10 3rd (10) (40/1 -1355%) Inspector Lynley	40 40/1(-1355%)	(10) Inspector Lynley 40/1, Maiden who wasted no time getting back on the up faced with less testing conditions when runner-up on return at Stratford (22f, good) just over 7 weeks ago. Goes off the same mark back down to 2½m and has leading claims if building on that. Clear second to revitalised opponent at Stratford in May; probably won't be far away.
4	6 4th (6) (80/1 -789%) Joker Du Chenet	80 80/1(-789%)	(6) Joker Du Chenet 80/1, Respectable efforts at best without success for Stuart Crawford. Low-key start for yard but shaped with more encouragement than previously when fourth of 13 in handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) 16 days ago, left poorly placed. Lurks on a good mark if he can build on that. 0-11 over hurdles; both runs last month were very respectable but more is needed here.
5th	1 5th (1) (450/1 -5900%) Easter Junction	450 450/1(-5900%)	(1) Easter Junction 450/1, Placed on the first of 2 starts in bumpers and fair form when fourth in maidens on first 2 completed starts over hurdles. His 3 handicap runs subsequently have been disappointing, beaten further than looked likely for a long way at Bangor (19.6f, good) last month. Dropped another 3 lb. Safely held in first two handicaps but last month's Bangor fourth was a step forward.
6th	5 6th (5) (350/1 -17400%) Mays Hill	350 350/1(-17400%)	(5) Mays Hill 350/1, Winner of a Fontwell bumper but yet to match that form hurdles, put firmly in her place by an improved rival at this C&D (good to soft) 18 days ago. That winner has gone in again since, so she shouldn't be underestimated for her top yard. Bumped into a big improver when second over C&D last month; same mark today.
7th	9 7th (9) (400/1 -1900%) Dragonball Prince	400 400/1(-1900%)	(9) Dragonball Prince 400/1, Ended his time on the Flat (for Hugo Palmer) out of form. No real promise in 4 hurdles for current yard (including on handicap debut last month). Looks an easy swerve. Fair on the Flat but has not shown much over hurdles; headgear switched today.

9th	2 9th (2) (125/1 -1463%) Hazels Delight	125 125/1(-1463%)	(2) Hazels Delight 125/1, Won sole point but disappointing in a bumper (for Francesca Poste) and failed to complete in maiden hurdles last season. Showed first form in this sphere when fifth at Market Rasen (18.6f, good) on return just over 3 weeks ago and she's one to look out for now handicapping. Shaped with promise in Market Rasen maiden last month; makes handicap debut today.
10th	4 10th (4) (400/1 -1900%) Secret Sauce	400 400/1(-1900%)	(4) Secret Sauce 400/1, Fair performer on the Flat in Ireland and best effort over hurdles when runner-up in a Hereford novice in January. However, hasn't managed to build on that since, including back on the Flat at Bath last week. Second in Hereford novice in January but lost his way in the spring.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (300/1 -500%) Great Warford	300 300/1(-500%)	(8) Great Warford 300/1, Little show in 4 runs over hurdles, showing nothing in first-time cheekpieces after 5 months off on handicap debut at Southwell (15.8f, soft) recently. Can only be watched. Well beaten when 66-1 for last month's handicap debut; back up from 2m today.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (350/1 -2400%) Mrs Kinsella	350 350/1(-2400%)	(12) Mrs Kinsella 350/1, Long-standing maiden. Made frame a couple of times over hurdles for present yard last summer. Didn't take to chasing thereafter and pulled up on return at Stratford recently. Others preferred. Pulled up on last three appearances but still worth a glance in the betting.

The form of MAYS HILL's recent second over C&D has worked out extremely well, with the winner and the third scoring since, and Fergal O'Brien's mare may be able to follow suit, with Jack Hogan taking off a handy 3lb. Inspector Lynley might be the one to follow her home after filling the runner-up berth over further at Stratford. Easter Junction and Hazels Delight are others to consider.

A few in with a squeak but MAYS HILL found only an improved rival too strong over C&D last month, and with the winner that day going in again since, Fergal O'Brien's 6-y-o is fancied to open her account in this sphere at the expense of Hazels Delight, who makes her handicap debut having shaped as though she would come on for her return at Market Rasen recently. Inspector Lynley and Joker du Chenet can fight out third.

This might go to MAYS HILL, who split two next-time-out winners when second over C&D last month and has the same mark today.

He was a long way out of the weights in that Class 2 race and this is a more realistic assignment. Stiff task in the Epsom Dash; progressive otherwise in handicaps; respected.

Down another 3 lb and will have a serious chance if matching the form he showed when runer-up at Newcastle in May. Mostly encouraging efforts for new yard; drops in grade looking well treated.
4	1 4th (1) (16/1 -256%) Cloud King	16 16/1(-256%)	(1) Cloud King 16/1, Winner at Southwell in March. 7/4, last of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm) 37 days ago. Hood on 1st time and booking of Oisin Murphy is a plus but it's starting to look as though he's essentially more effective on the AW. May settle better and rebound with hood now applied; still of interest.
5th	5 5th (5) (50/1 -567%) Port Hedland	50 50/1(-567%)	(5) Port Hedland 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 125/1, fifth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (6f). Off 9 months and tongue strap on 1st time for this handicap debut. Should have more to offer and he needs close attention in the betting. Takes on race-fit rivals but market support should be heeded; handicap debut.
6th	4 6th (4) (50/1 -1718%) Big Time Rascal	50 50/1(-1718%)	(4) Big Time Rascal 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, first run since leaving George Boughey when excellent second of 6 in maiden at Brighton (5.3f, good to firm) 28 days ago. Makes handicap debut and needs considering with William Buick booked. Solid second (behind a subsequent scorer) in Brighton maiden on reappearance.

Outclassed at Epsom last time, Law Of Average will be more at home in this company. However, he's 7lb higher than when winning on the turf at Lingfield in May and BIG TIME RASCAL is preferred. Further progress is expected from the three-year-old, who finished second in a maiden at Brighton to a subsequent handicap winner, and William Buick takes over the reins. Cloud King was in winning form on the all-weather back in March and may prove the pick of the remainder.

PORT HEDLAND is the only one of these without a recent run under his belt but he's nevertheless very interesting now handicapping off a potentially handy opening mark. His appeal will be enhanced if the market vibes are upbeat. Make It Easy will be a big threat if able to bounce back, while handicap-debutant Big Time Rascal and Law of Average are also players in this trappy affair.

Handicap debutant BIG TIME RASCAL looks favourably treated off 72. Law Of Average is feared most.

This represents an excellent opportunity for CAPO VATICANO, who ran well under a penalty at Hamilton having won at Chelmsford on her debut in April. The daughter of Calyx is 5lb clear of surprise Bath scorer Accrual on official ratings and she receives 5lb from the gelding. Angel Pass, a 130,000-euro puchase as a yearling, warrants a market check ahead of her racecourse bow.

CAPO VATICANO could have more to offer back on AW and she can make it 2-3. Bath-winner Accrual is respected, while Angel Pass is an interesting newcomer for Sir Mark Prescott.

Accrual's potential may not be enough to cope with CAPO VATICANO who sets a clear standard. Newcomer Angel Pass is feared most.

INVINCIBLE CROWN gave the impression he'd be winning at this level sooner rather than later when third over C&D a fortnight ago. Eighteencaratgold will likely appreciate this distance having shown bags of early pace over 6f here on his introduction, while Woodhay Whisper and Mister Mcgregor showed promise on debut, although both took a step backwards last time. Dubai Magic and Montbeliarde are newcomers to keep an eye on.

On the back of encouraging third-placed finishes at Chelmsford and latterly this C&D, INVINCIBLE CROWN is taken to make it third time lucky. He remains capable of better and should prove too strong for interesting newcomers Montbeliarde and Dubai Magic. The Richard Spencer-trained debutants I Follow Rivers and The Last Time both need a market check, while Woodhay Whisper will be a threat if able to get back on track.

Another chance is given to WOODHAY WHISPER. Invincible Crown and interesting newcomer Montbeliarde complete the shortlist.

Stronger headgear goes on. Respected down in class. Good third in Class 3 at Redcar latest and he's respected back on AW; new headgear.

NIGHT ON EARTH struggled to make an impact in the Dash at Epsom last month, but he was out of the handicap there and the C&D winner competes off a 5lb lower figure now back on an artificial surface. Invincible Speed continues to knock on the door and he might benefit from a drop in trip. Handicap debutant Blazes Boylan and Ready Freddie Go, who sports blinkers for the first time, are two others to consider.

A useful sprint handicap that can go to READY FREDDIE GO, who is 1-1 over C&D and shaped as if ready to score again at Redcar. This looks a bit easier and blinkers replace his usual cheekpieces. 3-y-o Invincible Speed should give it a good go from the front, while the busy Reigning Profit, another C&D winner, is weighted to strike.

It might be worth siding with James Tate's in-form 3yo INVINCIBLE SPEED, who could find more improvement back at this trip.

Open to progress and while jockey bookings suggest that Bursinel may be the stable No 1, she's one to be interested in. Showed promise, amid greenness, at Nottingham last month; ought to improve.

BESET looked an improved filly when fourth over C&D on her reappearance. That race has worked out well and she can feature in an open affair. Seek And Destroy also ran well when narrowly beaten at Chepstow, while cheekpieces are applied to the The King's General and better is expected. Bursinel is fitted with blinkers for his debut on turf and he's preferred to stablemate Ina Mina. Tajer is a newcomer to note.

SEEK AND DESTROY left the form of her low-key 2-y-o debut well behind when just touched off at Chepstow and, with the promise of better to come from this Sea The Stars filly, she looks the one to be on. Ina Mina shaped well on her recent introduction at Nottingham and is next on the list with this step up in trip likely to spark some improvement. The King's General and his stablemate Tajer, who is a likely-looking type on paper, are others to consider.

The vote goes to THE KING'S GENERAL, ahead of the Haggas runners Bursinel and Ina Mina.

BOLDLY may still be a maiden after six starts, but he showed more than enough when beaten half a length into second over 1m6f at Thirsk last week to suggest he might be able to get off the mark on this occasion. That may be at the main expense of comfortable Kempton winner Goblet Of Fire, although course specialist Optician is four from four here so has to enter the equation as well.

It's easy to see OPTICIAN successfully defending his unbeaten C&D record back from a break. He topped off a wonderful winter with a solid effort in a much more competitive contest at Lingfield when last seen and can make it 5-5 here on his return. Goblet of Fire can go well again, with Boldly and Buxted Too completing the shortlist.

Having won three of his last four for Nigel Tinkler, GOBLET OF FIRE (nap) resumed the good work when returned to the Flat 19 days ago.

2	5 2nd (5) (9/1 -125%) Haymaker	9 9/1(-125%)	(5) Haymaker 9/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 4/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Goodwood (6f, good to firm) 22 days ago, just holding on. 3 lb rise tolerable but another step forward will be needed if he's to complete the hat-trick. Has form figures of 211 since having wind surgery; better than ever.
3	6 3rd (6) (6/1 -33%) Katey Kontent	6 6/1(-33%)	(6) Katey Kontent 6/1, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (11/2) at York (6f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Very much of interest off the same mark back here. 2-2 at Windsor; creditable effort at York last time; holds solid claims.
4	7 4th (7) (9/1 -200%) Shagraan	9 9/1(-200%)	(7) Shagraan 9/1, C&D winner. 6/1, creditable fifth of 28 in handicap at Royal Ascot (5f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Back up in trip and he's a huge player. Consistent efforts for new yard, fifth in Royal Ascot handicap latest; respected.
5th	2 5th (2) (16/1 -45%) Aramis Grey	16 16/1(-45%)	(2) Aramis Grey 16/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Good second of 14 in handicap at Haydock (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 23 days ago. Each-way chance. Close second at Haydock last time; generally consistent; not dismissed.

8th	1 8th (1) (33/1 -560%) Rohaan	33 33/1(-560%)	(1) Rohaan 33/1, Ten wins from 37 Flat runs. 14/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) 58 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down to his last winning mark but he seems ideally suited to the hustle and bustle of big-field scenarios. Good chance provided he takes to Windsor; last four wins at Ascot.

Following wins at Nottingham and Goodwood, Haymaker will look to deliver another knockout blow, with a further 3lb rise seemingly well within range. Katey Kontent, on target over C&D two starts ago, and Shagraan, who was a creditable fifth in the Palace Of Holyrood House at Royal Ascot, should make a bold fist of things, but ROHAAN gets the verdict. The son of Mayson has slipped to his last winning mark and there were signs of a return to form at Newmarket.

This looks ripe for the 3-y-o SHAGRAAN, who has shaped well on each of his three starts for this yard, not least when fifth in a big-field 5f Royal Ascot handicap recently. He is likely to appreciate this step back up in trip. Amazonian Dream is in good form and should be on the premises once again, while Katey Kontent is also strongly considered. Haymaker is bound to attract support in his hat-trick bid but this demands a clear personal-best from Hughie Morrison's charge.

The vote goes to SHAGRAAN (nap), who has strong form for his new stable. Katey Kontent is second choice.

Continues to go the right way and can go well again up 4 lb. Hit personal best when scoring at Chelmsford latest and he's a big player again back at 6f.
2	7 2nd (7) (25/1 -400%) Porfin	25 25/1(-400%)	(7) Porfin 25/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in June. Creditable sixth of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, good to firm, 11/4) 11 days ago. Running well in classified events and has possibilities back in a handicap.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/2 -57%) Due Date	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(3) Due Date 11/2, Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner handicap (7/2) at this C&D 27 days ago, battling well. Might be vulnerable having gone back up 2 lb. Three AW wins this year including over C&D last time; respected up 2lb.

6th	1 6th (1) (100/1 -1567%) Revolucion	100 100/1(-1567%)	(1) Revolucion 100/1, C&D winner. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (7/1) at Kempton (6f) 77 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Joseph Parr. On a fair mark if stable switch sparks a resurgence. C&D winner but he's now 1-27 and has a bit to prove on return for new yard.
7th	4 7th (4) (100/1 -1900%) Soldier's Class	100 100/1(-1900%)	(4) Soldier's Class 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, very good sixth of 11 in handicap at Leicester (6f, good) 16 days ago. Visor on 1st time. Can make presence felt. Unexposed 3yo who was an eyecatcher at Leicester last time; interesting with visor added.

9th	8 9th (8) (350/1 -1300%) Fistral Beach	350 350/1(-1300%)	(8) Fistral Beach 350/1, Last of 7 in handicap (11/1) at Catterick (6f, soft) 39 days ago. Needs a revival. Six-race maiden who has struggled in both runs for current yard and has plenty to prove.

A taking winner over 7f at Chelmsford in May, MAGIC GEM has tasted success here before too and a 4lb rise for that most recent victory may not be enough to prevent him from landing the double on the drop in trip. Due Date has scored on his last two C&D starts so he must enter calculations, along with Porfin, who is a key player based on the pick of his form.

Quite a few interesting ones for a class 6, with 3-y-o SOLDIER'S CLASS taken to get off the mark after a good showing at Leicester. Chelmsford-winner Magic Gem can go well again, while Revolucion is worth a look for a new trainer.

This could revolve around the two last-time-out winners in Due Date and MAGIC JEM, with preference for the latter.

Capable of a bold show back with Tom Marquand booked. Not disgraced in competitive field last time; this may prove a bit less taxing.
2	4 2nd (4) (14/1 -87%) Wisper	14 14/1(-87%)	(4) Wisper 14/1, C&D winner. 9/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 17 days ago. Wasn't at her best that day but she would have a serious chance if on-song. Capable of being involved, provided she bounces back from a below-par run.
3	1 3rd (1) (2/1 -45%) Composite	2 2/1(-45%)	(1) Composite 2/1, Two wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Newmarket (8f, good to firm, 9/2) 4 days ago, readily. Stepping back up in trip won't be a problem and, though 11 lb higher under a penalty here, he has to be feared in current form. Back in good form since wearing blinkers; respected under a penalty for Newmarket win.
4	2 4th (2) (400/1 -11329%) Aerospace	400 400/1(-11329%)	(2) Aerospace 400/1, Two wins from 4 runs this year, the latest at Newcastle in April. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 28 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and should be thereabouts if the headgear has the desired effect. Good second over C&D last month; may have further progress in him; big player.
5th	7 5th (7) (100/1 -1233%) Woodstock City	100 100/1(-1233%)	(7) Woodstock City 100/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap at Chester (10.3f, soft, 10/1) 16 days ago. Good third over the same C&D on penultimate start, and a reproduction of that would put him in the picture. Inconsistent in Britain but is interesting on his penultimate effort (third at Chester).
6th	6 6th (6) (450/1 -582%) Spirit Of The Bay	450 450/1(-582%)	(6) Spirit Of The Bay 450/1, 66/1, first run since leaving Clive Cox when seventh of 8 in handicap at Bath (8f, soft) 64 days ago. Back up in trip and she's likely to come up short once more. Failed to revive at Bath on stable/seasonal debut; best watched.

Disappointing though that effort was, he's in good hands and is by no means written off. Rather disappointing last time but this low-mileage 4yo may well rebound.

Composite was a comfortable victor over 1m at Newmarket on Thursday and is interesting returned to further under a penalty, but it might pay to side with CRYSTAL MARINER. It was no surprise that he weakened at Sandown recently, having raced wide with no cover for much of the contest. That shouldn't be an issue here, though, and given that he retains plenty of potential, a 2lb ease in the ratings might underestimate him. Aerospace is another to consider.

The vote goes to dual course winner ANDALEEP, who will find this more palatable than the competitive, big-field handicaps he has contested at York the last twice. Composite is an obvious threat on the back of his decisive Newmarket success, while Wisper will have a chance if she puts her best foot forward and Crystal Mariner still has low mileage.

With the first-time headgear likely to prove beneficial, AEROSPACE could well build on his C&D effort. Composite is respected.

Returns off a 7 lb lower mark so needs keeping a close eye on in the betting. Back from long absence but he's well treated on old form and needs checking in market.

COAST has plenty of miles on the clock for one her age, but she bounced back to winning ways with a dominant success from the front on the Lingfield turf and should have more to come, with Mikkel Mortensen taking off a valuable 7lb. A determined winner at Chepstow last time out, Savannah Smiles is also a key player, along with Katie G.

LIOSA had an excuse on turf at Bath last time and is given another chance to confirm the promise of her C&D reappearance fourth. The fact Savannah Smiles has been a regular winner lately counts for plenty at this level so she's second choice. A long absence means Coolagh Magic has been given a chance by the handicapper so he's one to monitor in the betting on his first outing for Anthony Carson.

Plenty have claims but LIOSA gets the vote ahead of recent Lingfield winner Coast and Chepstow runner-up Street Life.

Forceful tactics saw a much improved performance from WESTON COURT at Bath. The three-year-old's 6lb penalty is effectively only 5lb due to being 1lb out of the handicap last week, which could prove crucial, and he's taken to complete a quickfire double. Wahkan made a respectable handicap bow when fourth at Yarmouth and he may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of C&D scorer Adace.

WAHKAN showed improved form when fourth on his handicap debut at Yarmouth last time and, with further progress to come upped in trip, he can get off the mark with cheekpieces added. The main danger could be Adace, who ran well on all 3 visits to this course last season, with Rival also considered from his easing mark.

Unexposed 3yo WAHKAN looks set to build on his Yarmouth effort. Weston Court is second choice.

Losing run is up to 30 and he was tailed off at Brighton last week.
10th	7 10th (7) (350/1 -3789%) Prince Abu	350 350/1(-3789%)	(7) Prince Abu 350/1, Unreliable sort. Twenty one runs since last win in 2022. Cheekpieces on first time, bit below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (16.5f, 8/1), very slowly away. Off 102 days. Last win was in December 2022 and he's been well held in last two runs; others preferred.

VIRTUAL HUG returns to the all-weather for the first time since winning here in April. He's 3lb higher but saves his best for this venue and can go close again. Smokey Malone struck off a 1lb higher mark over this distance at Southwell in January and is not out of it, while Dubai Immo has a shout if staying this far having placed over 1m4f on his last couple of outings. Baileys Warrior and Casa Luna make most appeal of the rest.

VIRTUAL HUG might prove the answer returned to a venue where he enjoyed a good spell at the start of the year. Dubai Immo has been placed 3 times on turf since his AW win in April and should go well if his stamina holds tackling 1¾m for the first time. Baileys Warrior completes the shortlist.

Preference is for BAILEYS WARRIOR, who made a bold bid when a close third at Chelmsford last time and is 1lb lower here.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (15/8 -36%) Lipsink	1.875 15/8(-36%)	(3) Lipsink 15/8, Course winner. Latest win at Nottingham in June. Confirmed return to form when second of 9 in handicap at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 5/2) 6 days ago. Remains of interest. 1st (Nottingham) and neck 2nd (Newbury) in 6f handicaps on his two starts for new yard.
1	10 1st (10) (10/1 -25%) Lahina Bay	10 10/1(-25%)	(10) Lahina Bay 10/1, Course winner. Creditable second of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago, no match for winner. Should remain competitive from this sort of mark. Back-to-form second on turf at Lingfield nine days ago signals a big run today.
2	4 2nd (4) (18/1 -13%) Prince Of Bel Lir	18 18/1(-13%)	(4) Prince Of Bel Lir 18/1, Ran better than previously this season without being seen to best effect when sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good, 16/1) 30 days ago, staying on after short of room 1f out. Now below his last winning mark so he's one to consider. Well treated on last season's best; a bit more encouragement on latest start.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/1 +0%) Nevernay	10 10/1(+0%)	(6) Nevernay 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, again fell a long way short of his debut form when ninth of 12 in minor event at Kempton (7f) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut and could make more of an impact back sprinting. Stiff task in latest novice; this handicap debut over 6f should be much more interesting.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 +0%) Airshow	9 9/1(+0%)	(1) Airshow 9/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in March. 8/1, ran poorly when seventh of 9 in handicap at Chepstow (6.1f, heavy) just under 7 weeks ago. Can bounce back. 13 wins, the latest on AW in March off 1lb lower; three places from five runs at Windsor.
5th	9 5th (9) (22/1 +45%) Greatest Time	22 22/1(+45%)	(9) Greatest Time 22/1, Wasn't seen to best effect dropping to a sprint a trip for the first time when seventh of 10 in handicap (33/1) at Ripon (6f, good) 11 days ago. Hard to fancy on this season's evidence. Has dropped 22lb since handicap debut; suffered major interference last time.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 -180%) Hello Zabeel	14 14/1(-180%)	(2) Hello Zabeel 14/1, 33/1, showed his form for the first time for current connections after 7 months off when fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) just over 5 weeks ago. Player if building on that with the booking of Murphy catching the eye. Returned from seven months off with a creditable fifth over C&D in May, tiring late on.
7th	11 7th (11) (100/1 -614%) Kapparis Kid	100 100/1(-614%)	(11) Kapparis Kid 100/1, Temperamental sort. 11/1, ran poorly on first outing since leaving John Ryan when last of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good) 12 days ago. Disappointing in handicaps, sold out of John Ryan's for 4,200gns before latest start.
8th	8 8th (8) (22/1 +12%) All In The Hips	22 22/1(+12%)	(8) All In The Hips 22/1, Course winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in May. Below form when seventh of 8 in handicap (16/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 39 days ago. Others make more appeal. Won penultimate start; no show latest but plenty of 2023 turf form gives her a big shout.
9th	7 9th (7) (80/1 -967%) Whoop Whoop	80 80/1(-967%)	(7) Whoop Whoop 80/1, 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, failed to improve when ninth of 12 in nursery at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 7 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Ralph Beckett (5,000 gns) and will need to hit the ground running. Eight-race maiden; left R Beckett for 5,000gns in December; bits of form give her a chance.
10th	12 10th (12) (450/1 -582%) Meimun Johnny	450 450/1(-582%)	(12) Meimun Johnny 450/1, Modest performer in Hong Kong and looked rusty on first outing since leaving K. Leung Man after 15 months off when last of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 66/1) on UK debut 34 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. 1-23 in Hong Kong; 14 months off before last at Lingfield (6f, AW); usual blinkers return.
11th	5 11th (5) (100/1 -1011%) Diamond Dreamer	100 100/1(-1011%)	(5) Diamond Dreamer 100/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year, latest at Wolverhampton in April. 10/3, below form when eighth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) just under 5 weeks ago, doing too much too soon. On a roll going into his latest start and he could bounce back.

Although denied in his follow-up bid at Newbury last week, Nottingham scorer LIPSINK lost little in defeat with a close-up second. Mick Appleby's charge makes plenty of appeal racing off an unchanged rating and compensation could be imminent. Hello Zabeel shaped better than his fifth-placed finish here in May suggests and he is a viable alternative now 4lb below his last winning mark. Lahina Bay may chase the pair home.

A competitive finale in which preference is for LIPSINK, who has made a cracking start for Mick Appleby and remains feasibly treated on old form. The main danger may emerge from Hello Zabeel, who showed his form for the first time for current connections at this C&D recently and has the services of former champion jockey Oisin Murphy. Prince of Bel Lir and Lahina Bay are another couple to consider, too.

The 7yo LIPSINK gets the vote, having made such a bright start for his new trainer Mick Appleby. Diamond Dreamer is second choice.

2	8 2nd (8) (66/1 -230%) Golden Passport	66 66/1(-230%)	(8) Golden Passport 66/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Tailed-off last of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Brighton (1m, good to firm) 28 days ago. Blinkers back on. Sole win was in 2022 and he's finished down the field in all seven starts for current yard.
3	4 3rd (4) (33/1 -136%) Capuchinero	33 33/1(-136%)	(4) Capuchinero 33/1, Seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (1m, 33/1) 19 days ago. Starting to look well handicapped but need to see more. Didn't fire from good draw at Kempton and needs to step up again after that.
4	6 4th (6) (33/1 -371%) Bossy Parker	33 33/1(-371%)	(6) Bossy Parker 33/1, Dual C&D winner earlier in the year. Run of good form has come to an abrupt halt since but may fare better back here. Two C&D wins earlier in the year but he's been out of sorts in last three runs.
5th	12 5th (12) (100/1 -4344%) Oriental Spirit	100 100/1(-4344%)	(12) Oriental Spirit 100/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, 5/2) on reappearance 27 days ago, running on. Expected to be bang there. Eyecatching third here latest and he's respected on this step back up in trip.
6th	2 6th (2) (33/1 -313%) Brunel Charm	33 33/1(-313%)	(2) Brunel Charm 33/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 60 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Lee Carter. Visor on first time (won in cheekpieces and blinkers). On long losing run and has mixed record this year; risks attached for new yard.
7th	1 7th (1) (200/1 -2400%) Candy Warhol	200 200/1(-2400%)	(1) Candy Warhol 200/1, Remains a maiden after 18 starts but twice runner-up over C&D recently. Did too much too soon back on turf at Brighton latest and treated as if still in form. 0-18 but runner-up over C&D in two of his last three starts; not ruled out back on AW.
8th	11 8th (11) (250/1 -2400%) One Hart	250 250/1(-2400%)	(11) One Hart 250/1, Three-time C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in June. Ninth of 14 in handicap (7/1) at Chepstow (6f, good) 14 days ago. Triple C&D winner but he's a mercurial type who needs to bounce back again.
9th	3 9th (3) (250/1 -1983%) Thomas Equinas	250 250/1(-1983%)	(3) Thomas Equinas 250/1, Last of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Chelmsford (7f) on reappearance 53 days ago. Needs to leave that well behind. Struggled on his Chelmsford reappearance and this looks tough from a wide draw.
10th	9 10th (9) (300/1 -809%) Sugar Hill	300 300/1(-809%)	(9) Sugar Hill 300/1, Unreliable individual. 40/1, last of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 39 days ago. Nine-race maiden with form figures of 8898 in handicaps; down the list.
11th	5 11th (5) (400/1 -2757%) Nights Over Egypt	400 400/1(-2757%)	(5) Nights Over Egypt 400/1, Winner at Thirsk in April. Visored first time, ninth of 10 in handicap (14/1) at Ripon (6f, good) 11 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Won at Thirsk in April but he's been disappointing since and is now 1-16.

Candy Warhol is still looking for a first victory but has gone close over track and trip on a few occasions, while Thomas Equinas showed progressive form when winning four times at Chelmsford last year and is not out of this. However, BOSSY PARKER landed a double over C&D earlier in the year and Stella Barclay's charge may prove the one to side with now only 2lb higher than for his latest success. Lingfield winner My Mate Mike is preferred of the remainder.

ORIENTAL SPIRIT is taken to build on a good reappearance here last month and take advantage of his reduced mark. Candy Warhol has been runner-up on his last 2 visits here and is feared most ahead of last-time-out Lingfield scorer My Mate Mike.

Preference is for ORIENTAL SPIRIT, who returned from an absence with a strong-finishing third over 6f here last month.

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.
