A five-time winner at this track, THE HIGHWAY RAT has every chance of adding a sixth success. Rated as high as 108 in his prime, the Andy Oliver-trained seven-year-old can always be relied on to run his race at this venue. In excellent form since returning on turf at the start of the season, he can be expected to continue that improvement now back on his favoured surface. In a race where a strong pace is virtually guaranteed, Ben Coen can pick up the pieces late on. Runner-up in a Listed race here last October. Revoke would have every chance if able to replicate that form. Eclairage is a speedy filly that shouldn't be discounted from her favourable low draw.

A lot in with chances but REVOKE is returned to the C&D of her most impressive run and she can put two underwhelming efforts behind her

3	1 3rd (1) (16/1 +0%) Usuario Amigo	16 16/1(+0%)	(1) Usuario Amigo 16/1, Slowly away beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Cork last time; generally out of form since returning from hurdling; off a short-break; bit to find Well beaten in two handicaps lately over 7f-8f; drop in trip might help as he can be keen.
4	5 4th (5) (7/1 +22%) Eyema Candy Girl	7 7/1(+22%)	(5) Eyema Candy Girl 7/1, Appeared not to stay beaten 6l in a handicap over 8f here last time where went too fast; generally out of form; top course jockey/trainer combination; bit to find Won a Dundalk 6f maiden on debut last year; hasn't matched that form in three starts since.

NEVER SHOUT NEVER is a generally consistent sort and gained a second win over the minimum trip when getting up close home at Dundalk last December. The selection has filled the runner-up spot twice on turf this season including over a similar distance at Listowel last month. No Alibi narrowly opened her account at the second attempt in Cork and is an obvious threat, while Gran Habano and Ja'marr are others to consider. The latter won twice over a mile at Dundalk last year and it will be interesting to see how he copes with this drop in trip.

No Alibi will be popular but she is taken on with NEVER SHOUT NEVER, who looks as if this longer trip will suit.

13:40 Newmarket (Class 3) 7f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments

Wasn't beaten far behind male rivals at Salisbury and she went off a shade of odds-on.

3	1 3rd (1) (4/1 +33%) Dancing Flower	4 4/1(+33%)	(1) Dancing Flower 4/1, Yard has won this five times since 2017; 7 February foal; Dark Angel filly; dam very useful from 7f to 8f; plenty of appeal on paper but Buick prefers Snow Light. Second foal; closely related to Japanese 6f turf winner Koseki; trainer runs two.
4	5 4th (5) (11/1 +8%) Ice Sovereigns	11 11/1(+8%)	(5) Ice Sovereigns 11/1, 20 March foal; 62,000gns Ten Sovereigns filly; half-sister to Galleria Borghese, high-class at 10f; dam's side suggests this filly may be better with more time and distance. Daughter of Ten Sovereigns; cost 62,000gns as a yearling; well-related dam was unraced.
5th	9 5th (9) (125/1 -56%) Romantic Twilight	125 125/1(-56%)	(9) Romantic Twilight 125/1, Well held at 50-1 in a maiden over 6f at Yarmouth on debut; can only be watched in the light of that. Should benefit from this extra furlong but unlikely to be good enough.
6th	10 6th (10) (11/4 -22%) Snow Light	2.75 11/4(-22%)	(10) Snow Light 11/4, 14 March foal; Dark Angel filly; dam smart at 7f at 2yo; top yard has won this five times since 2016, including with Classic winner Desert Flower last year; Buick's pick; strong paper claims. Newcomer from a yard that has dominated this maiden in recent years.

Too Darn Hot filly out of a Group-placed 1m4f winner; check the market.
8th	4 8th (4) (25/1 +0%) Frustration	25 25/1(+0%)	(4) Frustration 25/1, 26 March foal; Ulysses filly; half-sister to White Chapel Road, useful at 7f; others make much more appeal on paper in this useful maiden. Ulysses filly and dam from the family of Champion Stakes winner Alborada.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,

Some powerhouse stables are represented and this looks a very decent maiden. However, with five winners since 2017, Charlie Appleby has farmed this race and could again hold the key if SNOW LIGHT lives up to the billing as the choice of William Buick over her stable companion, Dancing Flower. The chief threat to the selection could be Darkwing, a daughter of Frankel, whose dam was a Group 2 winner the same yard/connections. New Vega and Fan Me also warrant betting checks.

All the stars align to suggest SNOW LIGHT will be very competitive in a maiden Charlie Appleby has farmed in recent years.

ANASHHAD and Crest of Fire boast similar profiles and are suggested as the pair to focus on. The latter built on his Newbury debut to finish second to a colt of huge potential in a decent-looking novices' event at York a fortnight ago. He should have lots more to offer. However, Roger Varian's colt showed distinct promise on his introduction - also on the Knavesmire - and already looks ready for tackling this additional yardage. Stepping up a furlong looks a perfect fit for the son of Mohaather at this stage. Mogbbel and Titanck are interesting newcomers to consider.

Mogbbel could be the newcomer to note. ANASHHAD and Crest Of Fire bring experience and have run into useful rivals.

Recent Bellewstown runner-up ERIC LOCK can step up one place here. A winner on turf at Down Royal in May, the Noel Meade-trained gelding is now just 1lb higher. However, once taking his apprentice riders' claim into account, the son of Advertise looks very well treated. Jockey Emily Grifferty was also in the saddle when the three-year-old finished second at this track in April. That form has been seriously boosted subsequently with the winner now rated 20ib higher. Topweight Just Before has to be of interest in first-time blinkers. A consistent filly in recent months, she looks well treated off 74. Colin Keane looks a significant booking on Cork sixth Senti Qua.

Well beaten in five handicap starts, JUST BEFORE, was only 1l behind last time. She can put in a bold bid in first-time blinkers

A fine fourth in the Jersey at the Royal meeting, Remmooz is sure to have his supporters now switched to a handicap for the first time. However, the vote goes to OLD COCK, who pounced late to defeat Sisyphean over C&D in May. Now four from seven on turf, the progressive son of Calyx could have plenty more in the locker and a 4lb rise looks fair. Blue For You has won the previous two renewals of this contest, the latest from 1lb higher, and he is entitled to the utmost respect.

Owen Burrows won this with a 3yo in 2018 and the unexposed REMMOOZ is the pick now he's up in trip. Old Cock is a big danger.

ZARAGOZA won a 19-runner Curragh handicap off a rating of 58 over a similar trip last summer and may have found a good opportunity to add to his tally. The Dermot Weld-trained gelding shaped well when third to Devil's Angel at Navan and again kept on well behind Carrigans Grove in a Naas handicap that has been working out well. Spirit Of Eagles has dropped to an attractive mark and enters calculations on her second at Down Royal last time. Mark's One has been far from disgraced in two outings for the Clearys this term, while the veteran Tynamite has gained all six career wins at Dundalk but ran a cracker over a mile here last month.

MARK'S ONE was unlucky not to finish closer at Fairyhouse last month and may be able to get his head in front off 2lb lower

MISS NIGHTFALL was the subject of one of the biggest betting plunges of Royal Ascot week when she was backed into favouritism for the Sandringham. Despite only managing to finish sixth in that race, she wasn't beaten far and it was a most encouraging effort on the basis of it being just her second run in a handicap. Bountiful (11th) and Saariselka (18th) appear held on the face value of the Ascot form and with that in mind, the Kensington Palace Stakes winner, Miss Information, is forwarded as the danger to selection, although dropping in trip off 6lb higher asks more of her.

The 5yo HAVANA PUSEY is a mare on the up and she earns the vote ahead of the unexposed 3yo Miss Nightfall.

HAATEM's success in the Wolferton over 1m2f at Royal Ascot carries substance and having also won last year's Craven Stakes at Newmarket, this versatile colt shouldn't have much of an issue with dropping back to a mile. Quddwah is expected to benefit from a drop in class after struggling to land a blow in the Queen Anne, while the impressive Buckingham Palace winner Never So Brave completes the shortlist.

Haatem is a solid second choice behind NEVER SO BRAVE (nap) who took his form to a new level in winning a handicap here last month.

With the form of the Cork maiden in which he finished fourth on debut working out well, SIDNEY REILLY can open his account. Very well supported for that contest, the Andy Oliver-trained gelding was outpaced before staying on strongly inside the last furlong. Although that race was run on soft ground, connections must clearly feel that the son of Cotai Glory will handle this quicker surface. If doing so, he is very much the one to beat. Having caught the eye on debut at Naas, De Boode is an obvious danger. Stable second string on that occasion, Colin Keane takes the ride now. Limbocall should be capable of stepping up on two promising opening runs for Michael O'Callaghan.

This race boils down to three and SIDNEY REILLY makes the most appeal following his fourth on debut at Cork when looking inexperienced

Although only victorious once so far this season, JM JUNGLE has undoubtedly been on an upward curve and looks to be well worth his place at this level. He seldom runs poorly on the Knavesmire and might prove up to the task following another fine second over C&D. Grand Grey and Washington Heights both contested Group 1 sprints at the Royal meeting last month and must be respected, while Star Of Mehmas continues to run well at this level and she could be thereabouts too.

Handicaps have been JM JUNGLE's bread and butter for several seasons but he's well worth his place in this higher grade.

ANGELIGHT may have been undone by the combination of soft ground and an extended 1m1f at Gowran last time and a reproduction of her previous close fourth over a mile at Naas may be good enough. The form of that race has been working out quite well and she is now fitted with blinkers. Marlborough Place made a pleasing debut when third to Cold Hearted at the Curragh last month and the benefit of that experience plus this step up in trip should see him go close. Raykir has posted three consistent runs and, like the selection, connections now reach for headgear.

MARLBOROUGH PLACE (nap) should prove hard to beat stepped up in trip after a fine debut effort at the Curragh

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (6/5 +36%) More Thunder	1.2 6/5(+36%)	(4) More Thunder 6/5, 10f winner last year but better form dropped to 6f for his new yard this year, last time finishing very strongly for second in the Wokingham; 3lb well-in; 7f should suit better; big chance. Progressive over 6f for new stable, strong-finishing second in the Wokingham last time.
2	12 2nd (12) (40/1 -186%) Aalto	40 40/1(-186%)	(12) Aalto 40/1, Won this last year and a contender on that form but would have liked to have seen him fare better on seasonal debut (1m) here recently, so current form has to be an issue now. Successful in this race (off 4lb lower) last year; possibilities if back in the same form.
3	10 3rd (10) (28/1 -75%) Billyjoh	28 28/1(-75%)	(10) Billyjoh 28/1, Below-par when down the field in a top 7f handicap at Ascot most recent; in good form prior to that; ground is fine and each-way claims if back in top form. Hindered by poor draw at Royal Ascot but his losing run is mounting up.
4	1 4th (1) (8/1 -78%) Ten Pounds	8 8/1(-78%)	(1) Ten Pounds 8/1, Ran to form, game, when winning on the other course here (7f) in April; good, close third in the ultra-competitive Wokingham at Ascot (6f) latest; contender for sure off same mark. Close third in the Wokingham over 6f last time; record over 7f is 4-7; remains of interest.
5th	5 5th (5) (22/1 -38%) Ebt's Guard	22 22/1(-38%)	(5) Ebt's Guard 22/1, Reliable handicapper who won 1m Spring Cup at Newbury in April; sound run in Hunt Cup last time; far from sure that the return to 7f will suit but each-way shout otherwise. Useful 1m handicapper; something to prove off current mark back down in trip.
6th	8 6th (8) (12/1 -9%) Run Boy Run	12 12/1(-9%)	(8) Run Boy Run 12/1, Bit below-par returned to 7f at Ascot last time but is effective at this trip; in good form prior to that; definite each-way shout if back on song and is normally pretty consistent. Proving consistent; better than bare result at Royal Ascot; C&D record reads 2211; solid.
7th	11 7th (11) (40/1 -43%) Gorak	40 40/1(-43%)	(11) Gorak 40/1, Made too much use of at Haydock last time; patchy overall of late and been down the field in last two runnings of this, so others are preferred; no cheekpieces today. Below form last Saturday, extending his long losing sequence; opposed.
8th	13 8th (13) (66/1 -65%) Our Havana	66 66/1(-65%)	(13) Our Havana 66/1, Scored at Musselburgh (7f, good) three starts back but less good twice since; this ground is an unknown factor and bit to find overall anyway. Capable of useful form but never figured last time and this is a step back up in class.
9th	7 9th (7) (3/1 +50%) Akkadian Thunder	3 3/1(+50%)	(7) Akkadian Thunder 3/1, In fine form lately, last time second of 27 in top 7f Ascot handicap; very much a contender off same mark. In top form since stepped back up to 7f, second at Royal Ascot last time; big player.
10th	6 10th (6) (22/1 -22%) He's A Monster	22 22/1(-22%)	(6) He's A Monster 22/1, Firmly back on track with close third at 50-1 back from a break on stable debut on Newcastle AW last time; 7f on quick ground used to be fine; may be sharper now; claims. Latest effort (stable debut) took his AW record to 11113; only 1-10 on turf.
11th	3 11th (3) (8/1 +27%) Myal	8 8/1(+27%)	(3) Myal 8/1, Game when scored by a nose at Chester penultimate start; sound fourth at Ascot last time but that seemed to confirm that this 5lb higher mark is high enough; others preferred. Productive but is held by Akkadian Thunder on latest effort; still on career-high mark.
12th	9 12th (9) (25/1 -79%) Dark Thirty	25 25/1(-79%)	(9) Dark Thirty 25/1, Yard has won two of last five runnings; game when winning over 6f at Salisbury last time; 6lb penalty makes this much tougher and though he's won at 7f, 6f may well be a better fit. 2lb badly in under penalty for recent win and isn't crying out for step back up to 7f.

MORE THUNDER, who is 3lb well-in here, has won two of his three starts since joining William Haggas and was unlucky not to have completed the hat-trick when he was narrowly defeated in a tight finish to the Wokingham at Royal Ascot last month. The son of Night Of Thunder stayed on readily that day and this additional furlong is well worth exploring given he ran over further when trained by Sir Michael Stoute. The Wokingham third, Ten Pounds, is closely matched and is a serious threat to the selection. Akkadian Thunder and Myal are also strong contenders.

Buckingham Palace runner-up AKKADIAN THUNDER is nicely ahead of the assessor and gets the vote ahead of Run Boy Run.

Armed with a 13lb weight-for-age allowance and the potential to make good progress now he steps up to 1m6f, TREMORGIO is very tempting on these terms. Assuming he handles the stalls better than he did at Salisbury on his handicap debut last month, the son of Dubawi can readily build on that second-placed finish to a now 89-rated opponent. Creatif and Clockmaker are suggested as the main threats to the selection, although it would be dangerous to underestimate the front-running La Pulga, who is on a winning mark and can make this a searching test.

Back on better ground it could be worth chancing the ex-Prescott BRAVE KNIGHT. Godolphin's Tremorgio is second choice.

This looks a good opportunity for recent Bellewstown runner-up RAMPAGE to go one better. Although raised 2lb for that narrow defeat, the Tom McCourt-trained gelding can race off a 7lb lower mark back on the all-weather. While arguably a better horse on the turf, the six-year-old has won off a higher rating over this course and distance in the past. In a race where there are question marks about a couple of his main rivals, he should take the beating. El Bello is of obvious interest with Colin Keane a notable booking. Very well handicapped on his best form, the grey is arguably better over 7f. Similar comments apply to the Tom McGuinness-trained mare Hastily.

This is open so it could pay to take a chance on ENDLESS DAWN who was beaten just a neck from a higher mark here in February

ROMIEU looked desperately unfortunate not to win at Newcastle recently, having been denied a clear run for much of the final two furlongs. He kept on into second and is very interesting from an unchanged mark, especially with talented apprentice Elizabeth Gale booked to ride. Archivist made a successful start to his handicap career over the mile here a fortnight ago so appeals under the penalty. C&D winner Thunder Run isn't berthed favourably but he can't be underestimated, while others to note include See That Storm and Ancient Rome.

Progressive 3yo ARCHIVIST (nap) kept on well to win over 1m here a fortnight ago and is taken to defy a 5lb penalty now up in trip.

KATIE ROSS has joined Gavin Cromwell this season and spoiled her chance by running too freely when reappearing here last month before not enjoying much luck in running at Down Royal. She finished well to take fifth behind The Bog Bank and is bred to appreciate this longer trip. Oiche Rua caused a 33/1 shock when scoring at Bellewstown last week, with Shahada Ace nearly four lengths behind in third, while Jasmine Affanalis is another to consider on her staying on second to In The Minus over 7f here last month.

JASMINE AFFANALIS ran on well over 7f here last time out and she gets the vote stepped up in trip

FIFTH COLUMN caught the eye when seventh in the Britannia at Royal Ascot as he did well to get so close from a low draw. The son of Kingman clearly remains on a workable mark and may be the safest pick in a very competitive event. Bedouin Prince has shown plenty of ability in three starts to date, but an opening rating of 100 demands plenty from him on his handicap bow. Others to note are Secret Theory and Raafedd.

Charlie Appleby's excellent record in this affords Bedouin Prince plenty of respect but narrow preference is for RAAFEDD.

ORANGE SKY made a strong impression when scoring on her handicap debut at Newmarket last month and now has a 8lb higher rating to contend with. The daughter of No Nay Never looks to have lots in her favour and can continue her progression. Chiringita boasts a similar profile after making her first start in a handicap a victorious one at Sandown and she could have a say, despite being 5lb higher. Star Of Dubai is the pick of the remainder.

All bar one of these come here on the back of career bests. ELECTRIFARHH has the potential to be very well handicapped.

Topweight MORNING APPROACH looks well handicapped on a mark which is 1lb below her last winning rating. Given that that latest success came over this course and distance, there are no concerns on either of those scores. A three-time Dundalk winner, the Willie McCreery-trained mare can always be relied on to give her running at this track. The Bog Bank, who has built up a good partnership with Alyse Clarke, is another with decent claims. A dual winner here, the daughter of Epaulette won on her penultimate outing at Down Royal last month. Master Garvey and Glencullen are others that have run well at this venue in the past.

He has a bit to prove on the AW but DINAMINE is rated lower on this surface and has been in competitive form on turf.

Al Qareem was an impressive winner of the Grand Cup over C&D a month ago and Karl Burke's gelding has to be respected once again. That said, marginal preference is for TABLETALK, who remains unexposed over this sort of trip and won the Melrose at this venue last season. He was far from disgraced in the Hardwicke last time and will find this easier. Samui and Subsequent are others to consider.

The consistent 6yo AL QAREEM won his second Listed race of the season when making all over C&D last month and holds leading claims.

FLORESTA took a nice step forward from her debut at Dundalk when staying on strongly into third behind Delta over 1m4f at Fairyhouse. Johnny Murtagh's team are in good form as evidenced by a treble at Fairyhouse on Wednesday and she probably has most to fear from Tenoya, who has been prominent throughout when placed on both outings over 1m4f. Fitzroy Gardens and Monntie both finished well on debut and could improve significantly with that experience under their belt.

Though FLORESTA would ideally be better over another furlong, the 1m4f Fairyhouse maiden she was third in last time is the best form.

ITALY created a big impression when winning on debut over 7f at Leopardstown in May and that form was boosted when the second filled the same position in the Chesham at Royal Ascot.

The shortlist is completed by Wild Desert and Moonfall.

Runner-up on each of his last three starts, GAME POINT can record a deserved success. The Ger Lyons-trained son of Blue Point went closer than ever before last time, when going down by a neck in a big field at the Curragh on Derby weekend. Almost certainly just unfortunate to bump into a couple of decent rivals, there looks to be nothing wrong with his attitude. From a family that have done well on the all-weather, he could easily improve for this surface. Lombardi Trophy, who finished behind the selection at Leopardstown in April, looks the chief threat once again. Carthusian may also be capable of improvement in first-time blinkers.

Game Point and Carthusian are the dangers to LOMBARDI TROPHY who could be the one open to most improvement.

NIGHT BREEZE made the frame in this class at Haydock on his latest outing and competes off the same rating. The five-year-old has a previous C&D victory to his name which aids his cause further and he will prove very tough to beat. Crystal Flyer struck in a handicap at Southwell before finding Group 3 company too much of an ask at York last time, but she might be worth another chance. Mount Atlas completes the shortlist.

The chief contenders appear to be NIGHT BREEZE and Mount Atlas, C&D winners who ran with credit last time out.

GOING COMMANDO finished a respectable sixth here before posting a better effort when second in novice company at Chester. The winner of that race is now rated 90, so Adrian Keatley's charge looks potentially well treated for this handicap debut. Amazing Journey took a step forward to land a novice race at Chepstow and there should be more to come from him, while No Spritz No Party is another going the right way after winning a maiden at Pontefract.

Kevin Ryan is no stranger to success in this race so a chance is taken that a gelding operation does the trick with DACRES CROSS.

The unexposed MOON ANGEL opened her account with a victory at Salisbury on her seasonal debut and first start for Stuart Williams' yard. Marco Ghiani could afford to ease her down in the final strides and the daughter of Time Test should have more to offer. L'Eagle Aid returned the determined winner at Newcastle and will likely remain competitive, while Percy Jones drops back in trip with a shout.

The lightly raced MOON ANGEL is taken to build on her comeback win, which came off the back of a nine-month layoff.

SLIEVE BEARNAGH has won five times and the dual-purpose gelding has been placed twice on the Flat this year including over a similar trip here in April. He doesn't have too many secrets from the handicapper at this stage of his career but looks sure to give a good account. Stepdance carries a 7lb penalty after winning at Tramore on Tuesday, while Jurality has shown promise on a number of occasions this year and Nicola Burns is a positive booking. Together Aclaim often loses ground at the start but overcame that tendency to score over 1m2f at Cork on his penultimate start.

Not many of these can be easily fancied so the percentage call is to go with recent Tramore comeback winner STEPDANCE

Symbol Of Honour won a Group 2 sprint at Haydock in May, but William Buick prefers supplemented stablemate Notable Speech, a dual Group 1 winner over a mile last year. The latter has the class to get involved on his first start over 6f, but another chance goes to INISHERIN. Not at his best behind Flora Of Bermuda (third) in the Group 1 Jubilee Stakes at Ascot, Kevin Ryan's sprinter had beaten the latter at York before that, and is taken to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces.

Despite suffering an odds-on reversal at Roscommon last time, it could pay to give JANES HARBOUR another chance. Well supported to record a first victory on the Flat, the Joseph O'Brien-trained daughter of Camelot proved somewhat disappointing in the circumstances. Beaten less than two-lengths in a similar race over shorter at Ballinrobe the time before, it may well be that this proves to be her optimum trip. UK import Qamari has to be considered on her debut for trainer John McConnell. Third on her only run as a juvenile, she shaped encouragingly at Chelmsford on her latest start. Spring Dance has shown enough in two starts to suggest she can get involved.

A modest maiden and perhaps a good opportunity for SPRING DANCE (nap) who probably has the most upside of these after just two runs.

Curran failed in his attempt to complete a hat-trick at Chester last month, but he still finished a fair third and isn't ruled out. Rock N Roll Pinkie justified favouritism at Nottingham and holds every chance, but RUSSIAN RUMOUR gets the vote. The eight-year-old returned to winning ways at Lingfield and is just 2lb higher, so she may be capable of completing a double.

The suggestion is CURRAN, who won twice over 1m6f last month and could still have untapped potential as a stayer.

A competitive event in which preference is afforded to REDORANGE. The lightly-raced three-year-old produced a career best performance to finish third in the Palace Of Holyroodhouse over C&D last month, an effort for which he was subsequently raised 4lb. Clive Cox's charge has scope for further progress and could have too much for the likes of Holkham Bay, who drops in trip having finished a close-up fourth in the Wokingham latest. Others to note include Existent and Toca Madera.

Stall 1 is enough of a deterrent for Holkham Bay and perhaps new cheekpieces can spark a revival from WOODHAY WONDER.

BANG ON THE BELL made all against the rail when scoring at Windsor in April. John Jenkins' six-year-old has drawn the inside rail here and another bold bid from the front is anticipated only 2lb higher than his Windsor success. South Parade enters calculations off her current mark back in this lower grade, while Street Life had been in fine fettle before disappointing at Haydock and could bounce back.

In first-time blinkers a chance is taken on DICKIEBURD, who ran well in defeat a few times here off higher marks last summer.

WOODSHAW WHISPER made a winning start for Ger Lyons when justifying favouritism in a Dundalk maiden over an extended 1m2f and the form of his subsequent third to Starford at Gowran has worked out very well since. He should be suited by this step up in trip. Riding arrangements suggest Waterford Flow is the pick of Joseph O'Brien's pair, and he came home well from off the pace in an ultra-competitive handicap at Royal Ascot last time. Camevere has shown promise at Dundalk and was far from disgraced when fourth behind Angelo Pio on her handicap debut at Down Royal last month.

Not beaten far in a much more competitive Royal Ascot handicap over 1m4f last time, WATERFORD FLOW can get off the mark.

Atlantic Sunset won over C&D last month, but he'll need to step up on that form raised 4lb and upped in class. CLAYMORE makes more appeal, as he can be forgiven a poor effort on soft ground at Chester, having finished runner-up on the Rowley course here before that. That form reads well in this context and a strong challenge is expected from the son of New Bay. A winner at Epsom in April, Asgard's Captain returns to this lower level with a shout.

The combination of a handy mark and significant jockey booking earns WHATHAPPENSINVEGAS the vote, ahead of Atlantic Sunset.

The relatively unexposed QUICKSHOT is worth siding with on just his second start in handicap company. Sent off favourite when runner-up at this track in April, the Adrian Murray-trained colt has been absent since. Given his American pedigree, connections clearly feel that this half-brother to a Grade 1 winner is capable of much better on this surface. With Colin Keane booked for the ride, the son of Uncle Mo is almost certainly better than a mark of 67. Eighty Eight has yet to win over this trip but from an inside draw and, with a first-time hood applied, he will almost certainly try to make all. Church Mountain and Numidia are both worthy of consideration.

The interesting runner is QUICKSHOT for whom the race didn't go all that swimmingly when runner-up on his handicap debut here.

Three-year-olds have won two of the previous renewals and that record could be enhanced further courtesy of TOKYO JOE. Ed Walker's colt didn't quite see out the mile at Southwell latest but the drop in trip should suit along with a switch to handicaps, while his penultimate effort would suggest an opening mark of 78 is lenient. War Howl recorded a comfortable success at Doncaster a fortnight ago and is respected from 6lb higher, along with Angel Of Rain, who didn't get the clearest of runs when third at the Town Moor venue last time.

This looks ripe for a 3yo winner and the unexposed GREAT is preferred to War Howl. Angel Of Rain looks best of the older horses.

Filly One flew out of the gates and stormed clear to score by just over four lengths at Southwell. Provided the four-year-old transfers that form to turf, she ought to have a say but ABERAMA GOLD bounced back to form when making the frame at Ayr on Monday and lurks on an appealing rating. The eight-year-old has two previous C&D triumphs to his name and could be the way to go. Manila Scouse and Juan Les Pins are a couple of others to consider.

Filly One will be dangerous if transferring her AW form to turf but JUAN LES PINS can make amends for an unlucky defeat last week.

The 2023 winner Holguin finished third in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot and has solid claims. However, he has plenty to find on these terms with WITNESS STAND, who landed a Listed race over 7f at Newbury in fine style last term and is versatile in regards to the ground. Marvelman is not easily dismissed back at this level, given his yard has won the last two renewals.

Andrew Balding's MARVELMAN had an excuse at Royal Ascot and can bounce back with a bang.

LITTLE MISS MAGIC showed a lot more when only finding a subsequent dual winner too good at Windsor and the assessor may have been kind to put her up just 1lb. The daughter of Calyx might only need to reproduce that level of form in order to go one better. My Boy Jack has been thereabouts in each of his last three outings, with two of those efforts coming in classified stakes, and he should remain competitive. The Cola Kid is another to keep an eye on.

A trappy race in which SILENT FLAME could be revived by the returning blinkers. Thank The Lord is next best.

A taking winner over C&D at double-figure odds last time out, PINPOINT can prove that was no fluke by going in again off 4lb higher. The four-year-old has operated off much higher marks in the past and he is preferred to Carlisle second Stormy Pearl, who is dropping back in trip. Sixcor finished a creditable third at Musselburgh and is another to consider.

Top of the list is PINPOINT, who was a cosy winner with a visor added over C&D two weeks ago. Newyorkstateofmind is feared most.

MIRACULOUS remains unexposed and he showed plenty of pace when a close fourth at Newmarket a couple of weeks ago. With that in mind, Roger Varian's gelding merits plenty of respect off the same mark here. Noble Victory is capable of going well if transferring his all-weather form to the turf, while Easy Peeler edges out Musical Angel and Queue Dos to be the pick of the remainder.

A Bit Of Spirit sprung a 28/1 surprise to beat subsequent winners on debut at Newbury and should mount a bold bid to follow up. However, his 7lb penalty might open the door for SHAHIK. The son of Showcasing changed hands for 120,000gns as a yearling and is a half-brother to a useful performer in Genealogy, so it would be no surprise to see him make an instant impression. Any market confidence behind fellow newcomer Wield would be interesting.

After running to a useful level on his Newbury debut, A BIT OF SPIRIT looks good enough to overcome a penalty in a novice race.

A highly-respectable seventh in the Windsor Castle on just his second outing, this represents a significant drop in grade for UTMOST RESPECT and he can take advantage for a first career success. Victaz was last of four at Musselburgh but showed up for a long way and must enter calculations, along with Wonderful Friend, who displayed marginal progress from his first to his second start when fourth at Redcar.

This looks a good opportunity for UTMOST RESPECT, who sets a useful standard and should be hard to beat back in much calmer waters.

LATYNINA arrives here on the back of two seconds in similar contests over 7f last month and it would be no surprise to see the daughter of Expert Eye go one better on this occasion. That said, Rye has also been knocking on the door of late and should not be underestimated as a result. The shortlist is completed by Spirit Of Jenny and I Can Imagine.

She is becoming very expensive to follow but LATYNINA did nothing wrong when a clear second at Lingfield three weeks ago.

Swiss Lightning got off the mark at the same venue in April and is noted, but it may pay to side with PALIO DI SIENA. The son of Sioux Nation shaped with bundles of promise when occupying the runner-up berth at Ffos Las last month and, with normal progression, he could be the one to beat. Silent Storm appears best of the remainder.

The vote goes to SILENT STORM, who was fourth in a strong 7f Newbury novice on his debut in May.

This can go the way of SACRED FALLS, who occupied the runner-up berth when sent off favourite at Carlisle last week and represents an in-form stable. The daughter of Dark Angel is only 2lb higher than for her last success, and it may be the relatively unexposed Chester third Top Juggler who gives her most to think about. Monday's Ayr winner Taygar and Monsieur Kodi are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

Several have claims but the vote goes to 3yo TOP JUGGLER, who resumed his progress with a close call at Chester last month.

Second when not getting the clearest of runs over 1m here, SOUL DANCE had impressed on her previous start at Nottingham and stepping up in trip can bring about further improvement. Queen Of Thieves has yet to live up to her illustrious pedigree but this represents a steep drop in grade for the daughter of Frankel, while North Star arrives on the back of a promising third on her handicap debut.

All four have possibilities but SOUL DANCE made a good start to her handicap career at around 1m and can improve again over 1m2f.

LEXINGTON KNIGHT returned from a three-month break to register a determined success at Brighton in May and the form of that contest has worked out very well. A 6lb rise looks manageable for Richard Hannon's charge and he may have too much for Loving Look, who was a bit free when a respectable fourth over further at Sandown. Papagei cannot be ruled out either.

Preference is for class-dropper LOVING LOOK (nap), who may have been stretched by 1m6f and now drops back in trip.

A poor draw wasn't enough to prevent A WAR EAGLE from scoring at Beverley last time out. Stall three here looks far more favourable and, from 4lb higher, the lightly-raced gelding could repeat the dose. Five-time course winner Shine On Brendan arrives on the back of a creditable Musselburgh second and must feature prominently in calculations, while others to note include Criminal Shore and Kempton scorer King Of Fury.

The vote goes to the unexposed 3yo A WAR EAGLE, who was a comfortable winner at Beverley and is open to more progress back up in trip.

Eight-race maiden; out of form for new stable this year; too risky..

SHABU SHABU may have disappointed as an odds-on favourite at Ffos Las but he is best judged on his previous second at Leicester, where he had Emily Rebecca narrowly behind. James Ferguson's charge has a pedigree which suggests he will relish this step up in trip and he can break the maiden at the sixth time of asking. Grand Harbour was a well-beaten second when a warm order at Ripon, but he should have more to come.

Another chance is readily given to SHABU SHABU, who had a possible ground excuse when a beaten odds-on favourite on his latest outing.

2	6 2nd (6) (10/1 -82%) Keats House	10 10/1(-82%)	(6) Keats House 10/1, Improved when beating in-form rivals to win a handicap by a head off 57 at Beverley last time; effective from 8-10f; best form on good and good to firm ground; not the most resolute. Came good when scoring at Beverley last week and a 3lb rise looks fair enough; in the mix.
3	7 3rd (7) (12/1 -71%) Epicurian Lad	12 12/1(-71%)	(7) Epicurian Lad 12/1, Went too fast down in trip and was beaten 3l off 58 over 7f at Newcastle last time; inconsistent maiden on AW and turf. 0-10 and he didn't live up to market expectations at Newcastle latest; others preferred.
4	3 4th (3) (9/1 +0%) Shahnaz	9 9/1(+0%)	(3) Shahnaz 9/1, Back to form under positive handling when beaten 2l off 59 here last time; enjoys making the running; back on last winning mark and can remain competitive if allowed to dictate. Triple C&D winner and was a good front-running fourth here last time; shortlisted.
5th	8 5th (8) (25/1 -108%) Spring Festival	25 25/1(-108%)	(8) Spring Festival 25/1, Forced to switch and unlucky not to finish closer when returning to form in first-time cheekpieces and tongue tie, beaten 2l off 48 at Pontefract last time; suited by 8f and a sound surface; maiden not certain to back up revival. 12-race maiden but he ran into trouble when a good third at Pontefract latest; dangerous..
6th	9 6th (9) (5/1 +33%) Zebra Star	5 5/1(+33%)	(9) Zebra Star 5/1, Outstayed late having looked the winner when beaten a neck off 45 over 10f at Ayr last time; wide draw; stiff mile suits; down to a workable mark. Close second behind Straya at Ayr and has 4lb swing in weights with that rival; respected.
7th	5 7th (5) (11/2 -22%) Top Gun Tina	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(5) Top Gun Tina 11/2, Improved on easy ground and suited by stiff track when landing a handicap by 2½l off 47 at Carlisle last time; suited by a mile; acts on good to soft and sound surface; consistent sort. Smooth win at Carlisle (soft) last Saturday and is a big player if she can back that up.
8th	4 8th (4) (4/1 +11%) Straya	4 4/1(+11%)	(4) Straya 4/1, Yard won this last year; travelled well and returned to form down in trip off a reduced mark when winning a handicap by a neck off 51 over 10f at Ayr last time; wide draw; best form with cut; revised mark will demand more. Made her breakthrough when beating a clear second at Ayr (1m2f); respected under penalty.

Irish raider; just 1-26 but he's finished third in last two starts; not ruled out.

TOP GUN TINA and Keats House are both last-time-out winners, but preference is for the former after her comfortable success at Carlisle last week. David Thompson's mare has a 5lb higher mark to contend with, but should be up to defying it. Keats House only just prevailed at Beverley a day earlier, but still commands huge respect. Spring Festival looks best of the rest.

This looks highly competitive but ZEBRA STAR may be able to reverse Ayr placings with Straya and she gets the vote.

1	5 1st (5) (25/1 -213%) Me And Bobby Mcgee	25 25/1(-213%)	(5) Me And Bobby Mcgee 25/1, Perhaps not suited by the ground and ran below form when well beaten in a novice over 10f at Redcar most recently; blinkers on for the first time; trainer in form; looks on a stiff opening mark. Unexposed 3yo and he's a possible improver on handicap debut; blinkers added.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/4 +50%) Gentle Warrior	1.75 7/4(+50%)	(4) Gentle Warrior 7/4, Travelled well but became unbalanced meeting rising ground and did not find much when beaten 3l off 67 over 12f here last time; best form has come over 10f and yet to prove stamina for further. Didn't look the easiest of rides here last time but he still has potential; not ruled out.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/1 -10%) Alnayef	11 11/1(-10%)	(1) Alnayef 11/1, Outclassed up in grade and may not have stayed when finishing down the field in a handicap over 2m at Newcastle most recently; top course trainer; best efforts over 12/13f; mark is tumbling but novice form looks flattering. 0-7 and was last in the Northumberland Vase last time; plenty to prove.
4	2 4th (2) (11/4 +8%) Redondo	2.75 11/4(+8%)	(2) Redondo 11/4, Quickened nicely and improved again when landing a handicap by 2l off 59 here last time; likes Hamilton and is unexposed at 11f; may have more to come. Stylish win over C&D last time and he hit a personal best with that success; key player.
5th	6 5th (6) (12/1 -50%) The Lost Canvas	12 12/1(-50%)	(6) The Lost Canvas 12/1, Needed the run on handicap debut when beaten 3¼l off 65 over 10f at Leicester last time; fair mark on 2yo form and could progress this season. Still unexposed but he needs to kick on again at this new trip.
6th	3 6th (3) (14/1 -56%) Cougar	14 14/1(-56%)	(3) Cougar 14/1, Outpaced off a stiff mark when beaten 8l in a handicap over 9f at Musselburgh last time; cheekpieces on for the first time; formerly useful dual-purpose performer but now regressive. Last win was in 2022 and he's struggled for current yard; cheekpieces are now tried.
7th	7 7th (7) (4/1 +33%) Lights Go Down	4 4/1(+33%)	(7) Lights Go Down 4/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 63 over 10f at Leicester last time; consistent at around 10f and may stay a bit further. Not beaten far in both his handicaps and has shaped as though this longer trip should suit.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (16/1 -45%) Krissy	16 16/1(-45%)	(8) Krissy 16/1, Something was amiss when pulled up in a handicap over 12f at Musselburgh last time; top course trainer; flattered by maiden runs and exposed as poor. Still early days but needs overall improvement back at this track.

REDONDO travelled powerfully when successful by a little under two lengths over C&D last month and is just 5lb higher. If the four-year-old remains in similar form, he could be the one to beat again. Gentle Warrior finished a respectable third at this venue last time and drops a furlong in trip, which looks a good move. Me And Bobby Mcgee sports first-time blinkers on his handicap bow and is another to note.

This can go to REDONDO (nap), who hit a personal best with his stylish win over C&D last month. Lights Go Down is feared most.

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.
