14:10 Pontefract Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (8) (3.33/1 +5%) Keep Warm	3.33/1(+5%)	(8) Keep Warm 3.33/1, Thrice-raced maiden who seemed unsuited by drop back in trip when third of 9 in maiden at Carlisle (good to soft) 13 days ago. Visor on first time. Looks a likely contender on first crack at handicapping. Could be sharper in the first-time visor on this nursery debut and he's a possible.
2 2nd (7) (7/1 +36%) Dan Dee Prince	7/1(+36%)	(7) Dan Dee Prince 7/1, Acquitted himself well when third on debut here (5f) in April but hasn't built on that and cheekpieces are now reached for on handicap debut. Down the field the last twice but gelded since and showed promise here on debut.
3 3rd (3) (7.5/1 +17%) Star Of Lazise	7.5/1(+17%)	(3) Star Of Lazise 7.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Found shorter trip against him when last of 7 in minor event at Newcastle (5f) 10 days ago and can't be ruled out stepped up to 6f on handicap debut. Signs of promise on the second of his first three runs and not ruled out now in a nursery.
4 4th (9) (14/1 -27%) Chat Up Line	14/1(-27%)	(9) Chat Up Line 14/1, No real impact in a trio of starts in maidens/minor events and opening mark could have been kinder on switch to handicapping. Hood on first time. Not obviously well treated for nursery debut but half-sister to 4 winners; not written off.
5th 5th (6) (9/1 +10%) Mistress Teite	9/1(+10%)	(6) Mistress Teite 9/1, Made the frame all 3 starts thus far, latest when third of 8 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 33 days ago. More required on switch to handicapping here, however. Has made the frame on all three starts and can give another good account on nursery debut.
6th 6th (1) (2.75/1 -22%) Celestial Flight	2.75/1(-22%)	(1) Celestial Flight 2.75/1, Improved from debut run when taking 14-runner seller at York (6f, good to firm) 25 days ago, holding on gamely. Fairly treated on handicap debut and merits consideration. Won the Rous Seller at York on his second start and he's respected in his first nursery.
7th 7th (10) (12/1 +0%) Mist Of Lir	12/1(+0%)	(10) Mist Of Lir 12/1, Has more experience than most but isn't progressing and the addition of blinkers had little effect at Beverley last time. Cheekpieces back on for handicap debut. Gelded since last seen. Now 0-5 and has to turn things around on first run since being gelded.
8th 8th (2) (6/1 +25%) Kandy House	6/1(+25%)	(2) Kandy House 6/1, Hasn't really progressed from her debut, left behind in final furlong at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) latest. May do better now switched to handicaps, though. Hasn't gone on from debut third but on a fair mark now in a nursery and could be involved.
9th 9th (11) (28/1 +15%) Ifonlytheycudtalk	28/1(+15%)	(11) Ifonlytheycudtalk 28/1, Shown little in 3 outings to date and hopes may rest on addition of blinkers for handicap bow. Well beaten at big odds on his three starts; plenty of improvement needed now in blinkers.

LTO Selection:

14:10 Pontefract Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

CELESTIAL FLIGHT built on his debut fifth at Beverley when showing a gritty attitude to get off the mark in a York seller last month. The son of Harry Angel begins life in nurseries off what appears to be a fair mark of 66 and he shades the vote from Kandy House, who has run with some promise to date and is open to further improvement. Mistress Teite and Keep Warm appeal most of the remainder.

KEEP WARM should relish the step back up in trip and looks fairly treated on his handicap debut. He gets the nod in a race where the market should provide plenty of clues. Celestial Flight and Time Signature are also of interest.

Having been gelded, DAN DEE PRINCE is taken to tap back into the promise of his debut third here in April.

14:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 10f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(1) (3/1 +14%) Tiffany	3/1(+14%)	(1) Tiffany 3/1, Farhh filly who improved on first 2 starts when off the mark in an 11-runner Wolverhampton novice (7f) 15 days ago, staying on to lead final 100 yds. Still looked rough around the edges then and highly likely there's more to come now handicapping for shrewd stable. Likely there's more to come, especially now she's handicapping and handed a stiffer test.
(4) (4/1 -14%) Outgun	4/1(-14%)	(4) Outgun 4/1, Positives to glean from his 3 starts on the AW last year and shaped better than bare result on return/handicap debut when third at Newbury (1m) 26 days ago (first home in group). That should have brought him on and considered with further progress likely. Pleasing comeback, faring best in his group despite pulling hard; open to improvement.
(10) (5.5/1 -22%) Mathematician	5.5/1(-22%)	(10) Mathematician 5.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 10 in minor event at Salisbury (7f, firm, 40/1) 28 days ago, off the pace halfway and noted making late headway. Longer trip a plus now handicapping and yard's runners always command respect. Big prices for three starts to date (7f-1m); would want to see some support this time.
(2) (8/1 +43%) Wadacre Gomez	8/1(+43%)	(2) Wadacre Gomez 8/1, Race-by-race progress in maiden/novice events, off the mark at third attempt at Newcastle (10.2f) in April. However, lacklustre efforts both starts in handicaps on turf subsequently and return to AW needs to have positive effect now. The return to Tapeta (won his novice in the spring) should help down 2lb; watch the market.
(5) (8/1 +0%) I'm Too Tired	8/1(+0%)	(5) I'm Too Tired 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/1, good fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 22 days ago, no extra final 100 yds. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Looks competitive on form. Yard enjoying a good spell and he ran well back from a break here last time; considered.
(8) (8.5/1 +15%) Paradise Row	8.5/1(+15%)	(8) Paradise Row 8.5/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Won 11-runner maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 4/1) 19 days ago, benefiting from the increase in trip. That ought not prove her limit now switched to handicap company. Better with each of her three starts and looks to begin handicap life on a workable mark.
(3) (8.5/1 +70%) Roar Emotion	8.5/1(+70%)	(3) Roar Emotion 8.5/1, Improved markedly to make winning return/handicap debut at Kempton (1m) in April, leading over 1f out. Too free when trailing in last of 17 in handicap at Newbury (10f) since. Good pace to aim at here will help. Two AW (Polytrack) efforts much better than his three turf runs; needs to settle better.
(7) (9/1 -13%) Fleur De Mer	9/1(-13%)	(7) Fleur De Mer 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, eighth of 11 in minor event at Goodwood (8f, good to firm) 32 days ago, needing stiffer test. Makes handicap debut. Likely to improve. Stiffer test should suit (half-sister to a 1m4f winner here); watch the market.
(9) (20/1 +20%) Eagle Eyed Tom	20/1(+20%)	(9) Eagle Eyed Tom 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 13 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 25/1) in May, slowly away. Significantly up in trip for handicap debut and the betting may well prove a useful guide back from a break. Hasn't offered a huge amount in three starts to date and will need to settle better.
(6) (40/1 -100%) Mirabello Bay	40/1(-100%)	(6) Mirabello Bay 40/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Last of 5 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm, 18/1) 15 days ago, driven out wide straight and making no impression. Return to AW could well have positive effect now. 4-8 on the AW, 0-10 on turf, so the return here (2-4) ought to help; is exposed though.

LTO Selection:

14:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

TIFFANY broke her maiden at the third time of asking over 7f here and the fact that was a staying-on success makes this longer distance worth exploring. An opening mark of 72 seems workable for Sir Mark Prescott's filly and even though she has to shoulder top weight, she rates the one to beat. Outgun is on the same mark as when third on his handicap debut at Newbury and is feared most up in trip, while Chelmsford winner Paradise Row is worth considering on her first foray into handicap company.

An interesting opener with the narrow vote in favour of OUTGUN. He showed improved form on return/handicap debut when third at Newbury (1m) 26 days ago (first home in group). Entitled to come on for that run, this longer trip may unlock further progress and he can go well from a handy draw. I'm Too Tired and Mirabello Bay returned to AW are feared, with Tiffany another worth a look.

The step up from 7f looks ideal for TIFFANY (nap) and she's preferred to Outgun, another who's open to improvement.

14:45 Pontefract Maiden (Class 5) 10f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(11) (0.62/1 +15%) Star Ahoy	0.62/1(+15%)	(11) Star Ahoy 0.62/1, Well-bred son of Sea The Stars who has shaped with promise over 1m this term when in the frame in Yarmouth maiden and Newmarket novice. Has more to offer, especially now upped in trip. Big shout. Well-bred Sea The Stars colt who could continue to progress now up in trip; leading claims.
(8) (3/1 +33%) Iron Lion	3/1(+33%)	(8) Iron Lion 3/1, Placed on all his three runs to date, good third of 6 in minor event at Redcar (10f, good to firm) 18 days ago. Can go well again. Has run well in defeat on all three starts (1m-1m2f, good) and has strong claims.
(9) (7.5/1 -67%) Jumeirah King	7.5/1(-67%)	(9) Jumeirah King 7.5/1, Fairly useful ex-French maiden who came in a good second of 6 in maiden at Longchamp (9f, good to soft) 82 days ago. Has since been gelded and is very much one to consider for his new yard. Plenty of promise in France and leading claims if reproducing that form on stable debut.
(4) (9/1 +25%) Wonderwall	9/1(+25%)	(4) Wonderwall 9/1, Useful 20f chase winner in 2022. Cheekpieces on for 1st time when fair thirteenth of 24 in County Hurdle at Cheltenham (16.8f, good to soft) in March. Not without interest starting out on the Flat. Useful bumper/hurdle winner; may need further but respected nevertheless on Flat debut.
(6) (16/1 -45%) Break Point	16/1(-45%)	(6) Break Point 16/1, Twice-raced colt and fair form shown, fourth of 9 in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f) 20 days ago. May still do better. Shortlisted. Fair form on both starts; might not be far away but needs something extra to win this.
(5) (33/1 -18%) Zain Farhh	33/1(-18%)	(5) Zain Farhh 33/1, Running-on second of 7 in maiden here (12f, good, 25/1) on his debut 9 months ago on sole run for Richard Fahey. Needs to hit the ground running for his new stable after an absence. Runner-up here last October on sole start; has an absence to defy on stable debut.
(2) (40/1 -21%) Mr Cuddihy	40/1(-21%)	(2) Mr Cuddihy 40/1, Off 16 months before below-par fourth of 5 in minor event (12/1) at Beverley (9.9f, good to soft) 75 days ago. Could still do better with that run under his belt. Promise on debut in 2021; then absent until this April, when well beaten.
(1) (125/1 -25%) Lite And Airy	125/1(-25%)	(1) Lite And Airy 125/1, 25/1, ninth of 10 in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f) on debut 20 days ago. Needs a lot more. 25-1, tailed off on debut at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) three weeks ago.
(3) (125/1 -213%) Renoir	125/1(-213%)	(3) Renoir 125/1, Debut third in Bangor bumper but only eighth of 10 in bumper at Stratford (16.3f, good) 51 days ago. Plenty more is required in this sphere. Displayed ability on the first of his two bumper starts, but others are preferred.
(7) (250/1 -100%) Cuttlestone Bridge	250/1(-100%)	(7) Cuttlestone Bridge 250/1, 125/1, last of 8 in minor event at this course (6f, good) on debut, very slowly away. Off 9 months with lots more to do stepping up significantly up in trip. Hooded for 1st time. 125-1, well beaten here (6f, good) last September on sole start; wears a first-time hood.
(10) (300/1 -140%) My Boy Benji	300/1(-140%)	(10) My Boy Benji 300/1, 66/1, last of 11 in minor event at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) on debut 28 days ago, missing break. Significantly up in trip with work to do. 66-1, always behind and tailed off on last month's debut at Wetherby (7f, good to firm).

LTO Selection:

14:45 Pontefract Maiden (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

STAR AHOY has looked to be a work in progress on his three starts to date, with his best effort coming on his latest outing when third at Newmarket, and it would be no surprise to see him improve for stepping up in trip. Jumeirah King makes his UK debut following some promising displays in France, while Iron Lion and Break Point are others for the shortlist.

STAR AHOY has shaped up well on all his three runs to date and with this longer distance sure to see him in an even better light he looks the way to go. Kevin Ryan's new recruit Jumeirah King showed some fairly useful form in France so rates the chief threat, with the consistent Iron Lion rating a solid place prospect once more.

The William Haggas-trained STAR AHOY was a good third over 1m at Newmarket and this Sea The Stars colt earns the vote now up in trip.

15:05 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 10f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(10) (1.38/1 +45%) Value Added	1.38/1(+45%)	(10) Value Added 1.38/1, Iffraaj filly who, ridden more positively than previously, ran best race when second in 12-runner maiden at Windsor (10f) 8 days ago. Can feature again with a repeat. Made most for William Buick on turf last week and holds obvious claims on that.
(7) (2.25/1 +18%) Emma Emilleen	2.25/1(+18%)	(7) Emma Emilleen 2.25/1, Lope De Vega filly who has displayed race-by-race progress to date, second in 15-runner Nottingham maiden (8.3f) 26 days ago, caught final 50 yds. Bred to be suited by this longer trip and she's one of the likelier types. Promises to be better suited by today's longer trip and goes on the shortlist.
(2) (4/1 -145%) Queen Regent	4/1(-145%)	(2) Queen Regent 4/1, Bright start when third on debut in a Kempton (1m) in February and confirmed that promise when opening her account at Newcastle (1m) later that month. Absent since but she remains open to improvement for leading stable and shortlisted here. Two solid efforts early in the year; shapes as though this stiffer test will suit.
(9) (4/1 +33%) Quantum Light	4/1(+33%)	(9) Quantum Light 4/1, Fairly useful maiden who ran best race yet when runner-up on return in 9-runner handicap here (8.6f) in May. Not in same form at Haydock since but feasible to think she can bounce back. Poor on turf latest; needs to settle from the outside stall and is looking exposed now.
(6) (80/1 -142%) Double Tot	80/1(-142%)	(6) Double Tot 80/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, good, 12/1) on debut, very slowly away. Off 11 months. Significantly up in trip. Off for a year since a poor debut at Thirsk (blew the start badly); the market will guide.
(5) (80/1 -60%) Daliso	80/1(-60%)	(5) Daliso 80/1, €56,000 foal, Zoffany filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart 2-y-o 7f winner Bronterre and 7f/1m winner Dark Wonder. Betting should prove a useful guide on debut. 56,000euros half-sister to four winners; yard 0-38 in novices over the past 18 months.
(4) (80/1 +0%) Cracked Up	80/1(+0%)	(4) Cracked Up 80/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, ninth of 15 in minor event at Chelmsford City (10f) 33 days ago, racing off the pace and struggling home turn. Handicaps entitled to be more her bag in due course. From a decent family but hasn't looked up to much herself in two runs.
(11) (150/1 -200%) Vida Louca	150/1(-200%)	(11) Vida Louca 150/1, £5,500 yearling, Tamayuz filly. Half-sister to several winners, including useful winner up to 7f Paws For Thought and 6f winner With Caution. Likely best watched on racecourse bow. Half-sister to four winners who's probably best watched for a yard that remains quiet.
(1) (200/1 -100%) Cheers Babe	200/1(-100%)	(1) Cheers Babe 200/1, Once-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in minor event (80/1) at Windsor (10f, good to firm) on debut 22 days ago. Passed over here. Big price for her Windsor debut three weeks ago and ran accordingly; can't be touched.
(3) (200/1 -400%) Anticipating	200/1(-400%)	(3) Anticipating 200/1, Shaped as if in need of the experience when sixth of 7 in maiden at Goodwood (8f, heavy) on debut 66 days ago, slowly away. This ought to reveal more. Looks best watched today after a low-key heavy-ground debut in the spring.

LTO Selection:

15:05 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A comfortable winner over a mile at Newcastle in February, a reproduction of that effort can see Queen Regent firmly in the picture. However, she has to shoulder a 7lb penalty so VALUE ADDED gets the nod. The daughter of Iffraaj was a much-improved second over 1m2f at Windsor and, with more progression likely, is fancied to break her maiden. Quantum Light is better than her most recent effort at Haydock suggests and is just one other with claims.

Having displayed plenty of promise on debut at Kempton in February, QUEEN REGENT only needed to match that form when opening her account at Newcastle later that month. However, open to further progress she could be the way to go now stepping up in trip. Emma Emilleen, Value Added and Quantum Light head up the dangers, in that order.

Open to improvement now handed a stiffer test, QUEEN REGENT can concede 7lb to Emma Emilleen and Value Added (second choice).

15:20 Pontefract Listed (Class 1) 8f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(8) (1.75/1 -40%) Purplepay	1.75/1(-40%)	(8) Purplepay 1.75/1, Better than ever on second start for William Haggas when landing Group 2 Prix de Sandringham at Chantilly last June. Little impact in a couple of Group 1s in Australia this year but this drop in class will be welcomed and she's the one to beat. Group 2 winner last June; hasn't matched that form since but drops back in grade here.
(9) (4.5/1 +44%) Zenga	4.5/1(+44%)	(9) Zenga 4.5/1, Made it third time lucky in a 9.5f Wolverhampton (9.5f) last July prior to a creditable second on handicap debut at Lingfield (1¼m, AW). Encouraging belated reappearance on the back of a wind op at Royal Ascot (1m, good) and she's not without each-way hope up in class here. Something to find with the majority of these but lightly raced and is a possible improver.
(4) (5.5/1 -22%) Fall In Love	5.5/1(-22%)	(4) Fall In Love 5.5/1, Useful filly for previous yard in France, notably finishing fifth of 17 in the French Oaks last season. Majority of her subsequent efforts have been in Group company and she's an interesting contender at this level on debut for new yard (also represented here by Zenga). Below par on final two starts in the winter but key player on earlier form; stable debut.
(1) (8/1 -33%) Al Agaila	8/1(-33%)	(1) Al Agaila 8/1, Solid start to career on turf last summer and took form up a notch on polytrack during the winter, completing hat-trick in Winter Oaks Handicap at Lingfield (1¼m) in January. Solid effort when a close fifth at Newcastle (1m) recently but will need to improve if she's to resume winning ways here. Progressive profile on AW; return to turf poses a question but she's not ruled out.
(2) (9/1 -29%) Dha Leath	9/1(-29%)	(2) Dha Leath 9/1, Enjoyed a productive 2022, bagging 4 handicaps at up to 1¼m. Wasn't beaten far when ninth of 27 in the Irish Lincolnshire at the Curragh on return in March but subsequent effort was a shade disappointing, for all that the 1½m trip probably stretched her. An each-way case can be made on form but perhaps 1m2f suits best.
(5) (10/1 +70%) Kingmania	10/1(+70%)	(5) Kingmania 10/1, Progressive earlier in her career for Chris Wall and, having drawn a blank in 2022, she made the perfect start for new yard in a first-time hood at Southwell (1m) in April. Disappointing in a Nottingham handicap next time, though, and probably biting off more than she can chew at this level. Four-time handicap winner, the latest in April, but she's up against it in today's company.
(3) (11/1 +8%) Espressoo	11/1(+8%)	(3) Espressoo 11/1, Back to form when making a winning reappearance at Ayr (7.2f, good to firm) in May. However, she was put in her place in this grade next time and a similar outcome is anticipated here. Won handicap at Musselburgh on reappearance but only 5th in Musselburgh Listed race since.
(6) (25/1 +11%) Love Interest	25/1(+11%)	(6) Love Interest 25/1, Newcastle novice winner on sole 2-y-o start and twice acquitted herself well in listed company last season, including when fourth of 12 at Ascot (7f, good to soft) in October. However, she hasn't come close to matching that level of form in 3 subsequent starts. Listed third last May but inconsistent since and well beaten on both outings this year.
(7) (50/1 -52%) Mary Salome	50/1(-52%)	(7) Mary Salome 50/1, Irish raider who resumed winning ways in a 9-runner handicap at Roscommon (7.2f, good) early last month. By no means disgraced when a close third at Limerick next time but she looks up against it raised in class here. 7yo who has been running well in Irish handicaps, but needs clear career best here.

LTO Selection:

15:20 Pontefract Listed (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

PURPLEPAY struggled to get competitive in a couple of Australian Group 1's in the spring but William Haggas's filly, who was a Group 2 winner in France last year, has been found an excellent opportunity to get her career back on track. Fall In Love also boasts some smart form, including when fifth in the Prix de Diane, and may benefit from a change of scenery on her first run for Roger Varian. Al Agaila, Espressoo and Dha Leath can fight it out for the minor honours.

If anywhere near her best back from a 3-month break, PURPLEPAY should simply outclass these rivals. She was nearer last than first in a couple of top-tier races in Australia in March/April but her sights are lowered significantly here and she showed what she can do when landing a Group 2 in France last summer. The Roger Varian-trained duo Zenga and Fall In Love can fill the places, with the former marginally preferred for forecast purposes.

The selection is FALL IN LOVE, who may stage a revival on the back of a switch of stables. Zenga is next on the list.

15:40 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(1) (2/1 +50%) Spanish Angel	2/1(+50%)	(1) Spanish Angel 2/1, C&D winner. 7/1, good second of 12 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 6 days ago. 10 lb higher back on the AW but needs considering all the same. In good form, likes it here and remains consistent, so will again rightly be popular.
(3) (4/1 +64%) Jarvis	4/1(+64%)	(3) Jarvis 4/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Ninth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at Newcastle (5f) 11 days ago. Probably best to look elsewhere. Has the toe to take advantage of stall 1 but he'll need to improve on recent efforts.
(9) (6/1 -9%) Munificent	6/1(-9%)	(9) Munificent 6/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Yarmouth in April. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (10/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) 19 days ago, met some trouble. Each-way shout. Hasn't always looked the easiest but he goes well over C&D; player if things fall his way.
(10) (7.5/1 -36%) American Rose	7.5/1(-36%)	(10) American Rose 7.5/1, C&D winner. 13/2, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Perhaps vulnerable for win purposes but unlikely that she will be far away. Was always wide at Windsor off this mark last time and is one of the likelier winners.
(5) (9/1 +36%) Bethersden Boy	9/1(+36%)	(5) Bethersden Boy 9/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 28/1) 59 days ago. Every chance if back to best but a revival would be something of a bolt out of the blue. Regressive gelding who's run over 5f only twice, finishing well beaten each time.
(6) (9/1 -13%) Tathmeen	9/1(-13%)	(6) Tathmeen 9/1, Four-time course winner. 3 wins from 15 runs this year. 12/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 64 days ago. Enters calculations. 6f is probably his optimum now but he is back on his last successful mark.
(7) (10/1 -122%) Cuban Grey	10/1(-122%)	(7) Cuban Grey 10/1, C&D winner in March. Fifth of 6 in handicap (4/1) back here 15 days ago. Possibilities if he puts his best foot forward. Well positioned and this is a bit easier, so he needs considering.
(4) (11/1 +45%) Fai Fai	11/1(+45%)	(4) Fai Fai 11/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 33/1) 63 days ago. Hard to recommend based on recent evidence. Sharp regression since coming over from France and he's hard to fancy.
(2) (14/1 -40%) Captain's Bar	14/1(-40%)	(2) Captain's Bar 14/1, 40/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Has been given a chance by the assessor and a danger to all if able to bounce back. Well held in three runs for his current yard; hard to find any positives.

LTO Selection:

15:40 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

This represents a drop in class for MUNIFICENT and Chelsea Banham's five-year-old is taken to build on a fair fifth at Chelmsford. He remains 3lb above his last winning mark, which came at Yarmouth in April, but is fancied to get the better of Spanish Angel, who reverts to the all-weather following a good second at Thirsk. American Rose and Cuban Grey complete the shortlist.

This looks pretty open and, dropping to 0-65 company for the first time, CAPTAIN'S BAR could be the answer. The 4-y-o hasn't troubled the judge in a few runs since joining the Scott Dixon yard but his recent reappearance spin will have blown away the cobwebs and he's now 7 lb below the mark off which he was second in a Kempton handicap on his final start for Richard Hannon last June. The consistent Spanish Angel looks set for another leading role and is second choice ahead of Tathmeen.

American Rose ought to run well again but strong traveller MUNIFICENT boasts a good record over C&D and gets the nod.

15:55 Pontefract Handicap (Class 2) 6f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(7) (2/1 +0%) Kitai	2/1(+0%)	(7) Kitai 2/1, C&D maiden winner last autumn and back on the up with 7f Carlisle handicap success 13 days ago. Has the speed to be as effective back at 6f. Travelled strongly for 7f win at Carlisle a fortnight ago and this 3yo has leading claims.
(1) (3.33/1 +26%) Summerghand	3.33/1(+26%)	(1) Summerghand 3.33/1, Smart gelding who was a three-time winner last year, including in Ayr Gold Cup. Not at his best so far this term but this is a fair bit easier than his recent assignments. No surprise were he to revive. 9yo who hasn't been at his best this year but has dropped down weights and this is easier.
(3) (5/1 +23%) It Just Takes Time	5/1(+23%)	(3) It Just Takes Time 5/1, Winner of 6f handicaps at Thirsk in May and Ripon in June. The type to bounce back from a rare below-par run back at Ripon 19 days ago. Disappointing favourite at Ripon but in top form previously and could bounce back.
(5) (6.5/1 -30%) Aphelios	6.5/1(-30%)	(5) Aphelios 6.5/1, Stepped up on his reappearance when fifth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 8 days ago. That was his first outing in 11 weeks so possible he'll be a bit sharper now. Also has a first-time visor replacing his cheekpieces. Progressive in second half of last year and may be able to build on recent 5th at Windsor.
(4) (7.5/1 -7%) Earls	7.5/1(-7%)	(4) Earls 7.5/1, Irish raider who got back to winning ways at Cork (7f) in May. Not in the same form in a big field at the Curragh (1m) 3 weeks later and now drops back in trip in a bid to get back on track. Also has first-time cheekpieces added to his tongue tie (wore blinkers earlier in his career). Blip last time but progressive previously and this Irish raider is entitled to respect.
(2) (12/1 -50%) Aleezdancer	12/1(-50%)	(2) Aleezdancer 12/1, C&D winner who has added to his tally on Doncaster reappearance in April. Disappointing in his 3 outings since and now sports blinkers in a bid to get back on track. Mixed form since reappearance win at Doncaster but not ruled out in first-time blinkers.
(6) (12/1 -33%) Bay Breeze	12/1(-33%)	(6) Bay Breeze 12/1, Won over 6f at Ripon in April and Thirsk in May. Good length third of 8 to It Just Takes Time back at Ripon last month but his run of good form came to abrupt halt last time. Needs to bounce back from a poor run at Ripon but running really well prior to that.

LTO Selection:

15:55 Pontefract Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Admirable veteran Summerghand has been cut some slack by the handicapper and is a threat to all on these terms. However, this season's form suggests that ALEEZDANCER might have an edge now he is back on turf and with first-time blinkers applied and Curtis Wilson-Ruddock claiming 7lb, he is taken to bounce back from a modest effort at Newcastle. Bay Breeze and the first-time-visored Aphelios complete the shortlist.

SUMMERGHAND is well handicapped again and is worth siding with to stage a revival faced with a less competitive scenario. Aphelios could be spot on for this after returning from a short break to finish fifth at Windsor last week and is second choice ahead of sole 3-y-o Kitai.

He needs to bounce back from his blip at Ripon but IT JUST TAKES TIME appeared to have excuses and he was in fine form previously.

16:15 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(1) (0.73/1 +61%) Sharp Power	0.73/1(+61%)	(1) Sharp Power 0.73/1, 7/4, career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Windsor (6f, firm) 9 days ago, pushed out. Escapes a penalty for that and will prove hard to beat with William Buick in the hot-seat. This is more competitive but he has no penalty and William Buick is an obvious plus.
(4) (5.5/1 -38%) Imperial Dream	5.5/1(-38%)	(4) Imperial Dream 5.5/1, Career best when winning 10-runner maiden at this course (7.2f, 13/8) 22 days ago. In good hands to progress but more is certainly needed on this handicap debut. Will need a forward step but should be alright with the drop in trip from a handy draw.
(2) (6/1 +25%) Mojeyrr	6/1(+25%)	(2) Mojeyrr 6/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Southwell in April. Last of 4 in handicap (4/6) at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and live each-way chance if on-song. Latest turf effort is best ignored; retains potential if the first-time cheekpieces help.
(6) (6.5/1 -8%) Tallulah Myla	6.5/1(-8%)	(6) Tallulah Myla 6.5/1, Winner at Chelmsford City in April. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good, 22/1) 17 days ago, faring best of those held up. Another with an each-way chance. Two best efforts came from the front on the AW and she's well drawn; each-way claims.
(12) (9/1 +0%) Exorbitant	9/1(+0%)	(12) Exorbitant 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 5 in minor event at this C&D (11/2) 47 days ago. Makes handicap debut and improvement is not out of the question. More professional from the front over C&D latest; handicapper appears to have been fair.
(9) (14/1 -56%) Daytona Lady	14/1(-56%)	(9) Daytona Lady 14/1, Latest win at Southwell in February. Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, good to firm, 9/1) 42 days ago. Others make more appeal. Exposed filly who often misses the break and is usually dropped in; will need the breaks.
(3) (22/1 -38%) King's Gem	22/1(-38%)	(3) King's Gem 22/1, Unreliable sort. 3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 3 in seller at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 24 days ago. The addition of blinkers will need to spark an uplift if he's to take this. Never happy on his recent return from a break; risks attached now switched to blinkers.
(5) (40/1 -150%) Dyed In The Wool	40/1(-150%)	(5) Dyed In The Wool 40/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Newcastle in January. 5/1, third of 5 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f), needing stiffer test. Off 149 days (has undergone a wind op) and place possibilities. Yard also saddles Storm Venture. Has had a wind operation and will need to have improved for it coming from stall 12.
(13) (66/1 -164%) Royal Mariner	66/1(-164%)	(13) Royal Mariner 66/1, 17/2, fifth of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, firm) 27 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others are more persuasive. Switch back to AW and return of headgear are two angles in with him; could do better.
(8) (100/1 -203%) Storm Venture	100/1(-203%)	(8) Storm Venture 100/1, Last of 6 in handicap (8/1) at Hamilton (6f, firm) 27 days ago, hampered. Makes tapeta debut and improvement will be needed if he's to get off the mark here. Finished a well-beaten last of six on his comeback last month having been gelded.
(7) (125/1 -89%) Strength 'n Honour	125/1(-89%)	(7) Strength 'n Honour 125/1, 50/1, last of 7 in handicap at Redcar (5f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Back up in trip and blinkered for 1st time. Best to look elsewhere. Poor in two runs back for his new yard; switch to blinkers will need to make a difference.

LTO Selection:

16:15 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

SHARP POWER had plenty in hand when landing an apprentice handicap at Windsor nine days ago and as he escapes a penalty for that success, he has a live chance of following up. Fellow last-time-out winner Imperial Dream is also shortlisted, despite dropping back in trip, while Dyed In The Wool, who returns from a wind operation off just 3lb higher than January's Newcastle success, has something to offer too.

The drop back to this trip proved just the tonic for SHARP POWER at Windsor where he landed an apprentices' handicap with plenty left up his sleeve. With no penalty to carry and William Buick taking over, further success is on the cards. Tallulah Myla wasn't disgraced at Newmarket and she could be the one to follow the selection home ahead of handicap debutants Imperial Dream and Exorbitant.

It could be worth giving another chance to MOJEYRR, who was all at sea on turf last time. Sharp Power rates the main danger.

16:30 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 12f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(3) (3.33/1 +33%) Carrigillihy	3.33/1(+33%)	(3) Carrigillihy 3.33/1, Recorded a fourth course success here in May. Not disgraced in better company subsequently but needs to pull out a bit more if he's to resume winning ways. Four course wins, the latest in May, but has failed to shine over C&D the last twice.
(4) (4/1 +67%) Where's Jeff	4/1(+67%)	(4) Where's Jeff 4/1, Built on a good reappearance effort to end a long losing run at Hamilton (11f) in May, knuckling down well in first-time cheekpieces. Not disgraced back in stronger company both starts since and should remain competitive. The form of his last-time-out fifth at Beverley has worked out well; on the shortlist.
(8) (4.5/1 -35%) Spritzin'	4.5/1(-35%)	(8) Spritzin' 4.5/1, Well held in a trio of all-weather minor events last year but type to do better now upped appreciably in distance for handicap debut. Sea The Stars filly who could be entirely different proposition up in trip on h'cap debut.
(1) (7.5/1 -7%) Billy No Mates	7.5/1(-7%)	(1) Billy No Mates 7.5/1, Lightly raced in recent seasons and still looked to be working his way back to peak fitness when fourth of 6 at Doncaster in May. Wasn't seen to best effect in a competitive event at York on most recent outing and interesting now returning to calmer waters having been dropped a further 2 lb. Well handicapped on last season's form but hasn't hit the same heights this term.
(5) (8/1 +20%) Big Cheese	8/1(+20%)	(5) Big Cheese 8/1, Maiden who ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces up in trip when second of 4 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 20 days ago, not unduly punished. Back down in trip. C&D second in April; hasn't built on it but remains lightly raced and is not ruled out.
(9) (8/1 -78%) Cosmic View	8/1(-78%)	(9) Cosmic View 8/1, Fair maiden who ran his best race when second of 6 in C&D handicap (good) last week, albeit no match for winner. Likely to be in the mix with a repeat. Encouraging second of six over C&D last Monday and could be involved.
(2) (9/1 +0%) Dundory	9/1(+0%)	(2) Dundory 9/1, Refitted with cheekpieces and got off the mark for the season at Doncaster in April before finding only one too good at Hamilton (13.1f) next time. Shade disappointing at Chepstow last time, though, for all that a stronger gallop would have suited. Good form on soft/good to soft before lesser run on fast going, which may not have suited.
(7) (16/1 -60%) Krona	16/1(-60%)	(7) Krona 16/1, Much improved for a step up in trip when bolting up on handicap debut at Kempton in February before following up under a penalty at Southwell 6 days later. Well held back on turf after 4 months off at Salisbury 13 days ago but is clearly better than that. Two stylish AW wins in February but tailed off when back on turf at Salisbury recently.
(6) (25/1 -150%) Tigerten	25/1(-150%)	(6) Tigerten 25/1, Took advantage of a drop in grade at Salisbury in May. Ran at least as well in defeat at Nottingham but hasn't been at his best both outings for new yard, albeit not seen to best effect at Chester last time. Back down in trip. In good form in May but hasn't been at the same level on his two runs for this yard.

LTO Selection:

16:30 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Spritzin' has to be noted in the betting as she steps up in trip and is introduced to turf/handicaps off a workable mark. Her yard remains in good form and she looks another likely improver setting out to test Sir Mark Prescott's tried-and-trusted formula. However, there may be more value in siding with WHERE'S JEFF, who remains on a handy rating and has more proven form on this type of stamina-sapping course. Big Cheese is also considered.

BILLY NO MATES was left poorly placed after a tardy start on his most recent outing at York and is interesting now back down in grade having eased a further 2 lb in the weights, so he receives the vote. The dangers are headed by a pair of 3-y-os in Spritzin', who appeals as the type to do much better now upped markedly in trip, and Cosmic View, who arrives on the back of a career best.

The Sir Mark Prescott-trained SPRITZIN' cost 265,000gns and is by Sea The Stars, and could be a big improver now up in trip.

16:50 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(3) (1.75/1 +61%) Fantasy Navigator	1.75/1(+61%)	(3) Fantasy Navigator 1.75/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 10/1) 11 days ago, better placed than most. Can give a good account. Not really gone on from 6f Kempton AW win last June; low draw and sharp test should help.
(1) (4/1 +47%) Flagman	4/1(+47%)	(1) Flagman 4/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Kempton in May. Only sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f, 11/4) 49 days ago so needs to bounce back. Arrived late to win first 6f attempt, on Kempton AW; excuses since; probably needs more.
(12) (5.5/1 +0%) Struck Gold	5.5/1(+0%)	(12) Struck Gold 5.5/1, 3/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Needs considering nudged up just 1 lb. Two close calls in 6f Tapeta events, most recently over C&D; can go well again.
(4) (6/1 -9%) Yaahobby	6/1(-9%)	(4) Yaahobby 6/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/1, good third of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 20 days ago. Can go well again. Mostly in good form of late and close up at Newcastle recently (6f); on the premises.
(6) (6.5/1 +46%) Show Compassion	6.5/1(+46%)	(6) Show Compassion 6.5/1, Blinkered for 1st time, seventh of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Musselburgh (5f, good) 18 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt if shrugging off latest effort. Went close to first win over 5f here in March; not done as well since; risky at 6f.
(8) (6.5/1 +13%) Arlecchino's Gift	6.5/1(+13%)	(8) Arlecchino's Gift 6.5/1, C&D winner. Won 12-runner handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm, 22/1) 15 days ago. Merits consideration despite 4 lb rise. Engaged 7.35 Chepstow Monday. Seemed to have lost his way but won off lowest-ever mark at Windsor 15 days ago.
(7) (14/1 +0%) Coast	14/1(+0%)	(7) Coast 14/1, Took this contest 12 months ago so can't be ruled out despite coming in only eighth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 47 days ago. Mark is easing too. Both wins over C&D in 2022 but blows in and out of form and below best on last 2 starts.
(2) (14/1 +0%) Jumira Bridge	14/1(+0%)	(2) Jumira Bridge 14/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in May. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 36 days ago, very slowly away. Needs a couple of these to falter. Below best latest but very capable at this level when on song, as when C&D winner in May.
(10) (18/1 +0%) Dodgy Bob	18/1(+0%)	(10) Dodgy Bob 18/1, Course winner. Latest win here in March. Respectable 5¼ lengths sixth of 11 to Magic Gem in minor event at this course (7.2f, 25/1) 15 days ago. One for the shortlist. Most recent win over 7f here in March; hasn't flourished since; work to do back at 6f.
(11) (33/1 +34%) Sparkling Diamond	33/1(+34%)	(11) Sparkling Diamond 33/1, C&D winner. First run since leaving Frank Bishop when seventh of 10 in minor event at Brighton (6f, good, 28/1) 7 days ago. Thirty two runs since last win in 2020. Engaged 7.35 Chepstow Monday. Sole win came over C&D in 2020; has struggled for long time now.
(9) (40/1 -21%) Irish Rocket	40/1(-21%)	(9) Irish Rocket 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 8/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Easy to look elsewhere. Has hinted at ability on AW but never involved on handicap debut at Yarmouth (6f).
(13) (150/1 -127%) Hiya Hiya	150/1(-127%)	(13) Hiya Hiya 150/1, First run since leaving Joseph Parr when last of 9 in handicap (80/1) at Salisbury (6f, firm) 28 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Not yet shown much in 6f and 7f events on AW and turf, including for new yard latest.

LTO Selection:

16:50 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Yaahobby seems versatile regarding the racing surface but his two previous career successes have come at this circuit and he is a big player. He is competitively rated and another bold effort is expected, but MAGIC GEM looks the one to side with following his triumphant comeback over 7f here and, off just 2lb higher, he may have more to give on his first attempt at this trip. Struck Gold and Dodgy Bob are also considered.

Lots with chances. MAGIC GEM got off to a winning start for David Griffiths over 7f here last time and can complete his hat-trick now back in handicap company with this drop back in trip a likely plus. Struck Gold could emerge as the chief threat on the back of his good C&D second. Last year's winner Coast can also have a say off an easing mark.

Magic Gem could be suited by the drop to 6f but STRUCK GOLD is well suited by Tapeta and his turn is surely near.

Form	Odds	Runs
(7) (1.75/1 +65%) Lerwick	1.75/1(+65%)	(7) Lerwick 1.75/1, Has made an encouraging start to handicaps, fourth at Haydock on return and would have finished a bit closer had he not been hampered late at Doncaster last time, so not without hope. Suffered an unlucky passage at Doncaster and this 3yo could be firmly involved.
(5) (3.5/1 -5%) Do I Dream	3.5/1(-5%)	(5) Do I Dream 3.5/1, Returned with a successful start to the new campaign over C&D in April. Good second of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, soft, 11/1) 13 days ago, slowly away. Solid claims again back at Pontefract. Two-time C&D winner who was staying-on second over 7f at Carlisle a fortnight ago; player.
(6) (4.5/1 -13%) Hi Clare	4.5/1(-13%)	(6) Hi Clare 4.5/1, Built on good Hamilton reappearance run when resuming winning ways over C&D last month and far from discredited when runner-up at Bath subsequently. Boasts strong claims. Improving 3yo who has run well on her last two starts and holds strong claims.
(2) (6/1 -140%) Paternoster Square	6/1(-140%)	(2) Paternoster Square 6/1, Left previous form behind when second in a novice at Windsor 15 days ago and this shrewd stable should eke further improvement out of him now his attentions are turned to handicaps, so he's worth taking a chance on. Makes handicap debut off a fair mark and this 3yo is in good hands to continue to progress.
(3) (6.5/1 +7%) Phoenix Fire	6.5/1(+7%)	(3) Phoenix Fire 6.5/1, Hasn't had much racing and took a step forward when third at Haydock a couple of months ago. Could feature if the race is run to suit. Engaged 4.40 Ayr Monday. Encouraging third at Haydock in May and he's a possible player.
(4) (14/1 -40%) Cassy O	14/1(-40%)	(4) Cassy O 14/1, Hasn't won for a while but he's fairly treated and arrives on the back of a creditable fourth at Doncaster, so no forlorn hope. Can be slowly away but some good runs this year and might not be far away.
(1) (80/1 -60%) Mossbawn	80/1(-60%)	(1) Mossbawn 80/1, Progressive at 4 but lightly raced and largely disappointing since, failing to beat a rival both starts for this yard. Hard to fancy. His mark has tumbled but he's been tailed off on both runs this season.

LTO Selection:

17:05 Pontefract Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

HI CLARE continues to progress well and has a lot going for her as she bids to repeat last month's C&D success off just 2lb higher. The Charlie Johnston-trained filly, who found only one too strong at Bath subsequently, is versatile regarding the ground and is a prime candidate here. Do I Dream returned from a short break with a decent effort at Carlisle and has more to offer, while Cassy O is dangerously well handicapped on his best form.

PATERNOSTER SQUARE took a step forward when runner-up at Windsor last time and he's open to further progress switched to handicaps, so he's preferred to the in-form Hi Clare, who scored here a couple of starts ago. Do I Dream is also well worthy of consideration.

The 3yo LERWICK (nap) did not get the chance to show what he is capable of at Doncaster last time and he's taken to get off the mark.

(6) (2/1 +27%) Kiss My Lucky Egg	2/1(+27%)	(6) Kiss My Lucky Egg 2/1, Making GB/IRE Flat debut. 9/1, sixth of 13 in novice hurdle at Wexford (20.4f, good) on hurdles bow 20 days ago. Fair in bumpers and will probably take all the beating in a race as weak as this. Some smart form in bumpers last year; below best on recent hurdling debut but of interest.
(5) (3.2/1 +60%) Doyouthinkso	3.2/1(+60%)	(5) Doyouthinkso 3.2/1, Modest gelding. 4/1, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (21.6f, good) 38 days ago, finding test too much. Modest on the Flat, 2/19 on last Flat outing. Course winner over hurdles; fine Flat run at Navan in May; cheekpieces tried; a squeak.
(2) (5/1 -100%) Magnetic North	5/1(-100%)	(2) Magnetic North 5/1, Fair gelding. 9/4, didn't need to improve to win 10-runner claimer at Limerick (11.5f, good to firm) 27 days ago, easily. First run for yard after leaving Adrian McGuinness. Solid claims. Won a Leopardstown handicap and Limerick claimer; big chance if repeating that form.
(4) (7/1 +42%) Hurricane Helen	7/1(+42%)	(4) Hurricane Helen 7/1, Unreliable type. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 25/1, respectable third of 14 in claimer at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Decent effort in a Bellewstown 1m claimer four days ago; this trip is a question.
(7) (8.5/1 +74%) Csarina	8.5/1(+74%)	(7) Csarina 8.5/1, Modest filly. 28/1, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Well beaten over various distances lately and is rated just 40; others preferred.
(3) (9/1 -50%) Black Soul	9/1(-50%)	(3) Black Soul 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 12 in maiden at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good, 28/1) 15 days ago. Back up in trip. Booking of Keane a plus. Claims on his best form. Has a solid chance if getting back to earlier Tipperary effort with Colin Keane aboard.
(1) (10/1 -186%) Desert Friend	10/1(-186%)	(1) Desert Friend 10/1, Fairly useful gelding. Pulled up in novice chase at Tipperary (19.5f, soft, 4/1) 7 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Pulled-up over fences last week; regressive when last seen on the Flat; chance if at best.

LTO Selection:

17:15 Tramore Claimer 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

MAGNETIC NORTH appears to have been found an excellent opportunity to make a winning debut for new connections. Formerly trained by Ado McGuinness, the eight-year-old was picked up by Dick Donohue after easily landing a Limerick claimer last month. With a similar set of conditions and Adam Caffrey retaining the ride, the veteran should take plenty of pegging back granted his customary front-running role. Desert Friend holds an identical rating to the Donohue horse so would be a real threat if at his best. The seven-year-old was pulled up over fences last time but had won his previous start. Former bumper winner Kiss My Lucky Egg is an interesting contender having her first start on the Flat. The Emmet Mullins-trained mare had some decent form in Listed company last year.

KISS MY LUCKY EGG showed a fair amount of ability in bumpers and, while she failed to come up to expectations on hurdling debut, she should have enough to land this weak event on Flat debut. Magnetic North is the danger having landed a similar event at Limerick for a different stable last time.

Outpaced over 1m1f last time, BLACK SOUL is weighted to win this if able to return to the form of his earlier Tipperary maiden run.

Thereabouts if in similar form. Two creditable 6f runs on AW in 2021; missed last year; unlucky on reappearance.
(1) (5/1 +17%) Catesby	5/1(+17%)	(1) Catesby 5/1, C&D winner in March. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, 11/1) 57 days ago. Considered. Two C&D wins, latest in March; twice run to form since; thereabouts if things go to plan.
(8) (6/1 +76%) Jackmeister Rudi	6/1(+76%)	(8) Jackmeister Rudi 6/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Tenth of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, firm, 20/1) 27 days ago. Blinkers back on. Two 6f turf wins in 2022 but mostly low key this year despite weights drop.
(6) (6/1 -100%) Admirable Lad	6/1(-100%)	(6) Admirable Lad 6/1, C&D winner. Back to form out of blue when second of 9 in handicap (18/1) at Bath (5.7f, good to firm) 6 days ago. Player if he can back that up. Triple winner at 5f and 6f here; ended moderate spell when close up at Bath last week.
(13) (8/1 +33%) Amazing Arthur	8/1(+33%)	(13) Amazing Arthur 8/1, Below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, firm, 18/1) 23 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Cheekpieces on first time. Best handicap form over Carlisle's stiff 6f; something to prove over sharp 6f on AW debut.
(3) (8.5/1 -89%) Bungle Bay	8.5/1(-89%)	(3) Bungle Bay 8.5/1, C&D winner in January. Respectable second of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Leicester (5f, good) 12 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt. Sole win over C&D in January; needs more than latest start over 6f here when 4th in May.
(5) (9/1 +10%) Peachey Carnehan	9/1(+10%)	(5) Peachey Carnehan 9/1, Four-time C&D winner. Tenth of 12 in handicap (11/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 6 days ago. Multiple winner here, most recently off this mark over C&D in December; mixed of late.
(7) (14/1 +0%) Boarhunt	14/1(+0%)	(7) Boarhunt 14/1, Course winner in February. 8/1, last of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Bounce back needed. Not built on successful handicap debut here (7f) but may yet come good back here over 6f.
(2) (14/1 +22%) Eldeyaar	14/1(+22%)	(2) Eldeyaar 14/1, C&D winner. Twelfth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 66/1) 11 days ago. Well handicapped but need to see more. Both wins over C&D in 2022; not disgraced back here in May (hampered); well treated now.
(11) (16/1 +11%) Viewfromthestars	16/1(+11%)	(11) Viewfromthestars 16/1, Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. 22/1, last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago, slowly away. Hood back on. Others more persuasive. Maiden; several places at 6f and 7f for this yard; return to AW will suit.
(12) (50/1 -52%) Bedazzling	50/1(-52%)	(12) Bedazzling 50/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Below-form when sixth of 9 in classified event at Ripon (6f, good) 20 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Won over 6f on Polytrack as 2yo; making heavy weather of it for new yard in 2023.
(9) (66/1 -136%) My Kind Of Girl	66/1(-136%)	(9) My Kind Of Girl 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 5/1, last of 8 in maiden at this course (5f) when last seen in December. Unexposed now handicapping. One to note in the betting. Promise over C&D on second start; lacks recent run but goes handicapping off modest mark.
(10) (150/1 -200%) Heavens Dew	150/1(-200%)	(10) Heavens Dew 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 6 in novice at Chelmsford (5f) 47 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Just minor promise in three AW starts; this is more realistic but still needs more.

LTO Selection:

17:25 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

CATESBY goes well for Elisha Whittington and, given she claims 5lb, carrying joint top-weight might not be insurmountable for this dual C&D winner. Dropping back in trip is very much in his favour and it would come as no surprise to see him help to set strong fractions on the front end. Bungle Bay would benefit from that scenario and he is feared most, while Admirable Lad and Clownsman both have solid enough form to make the shortlist.

ADMIRABLE LAD took a step back in the right direction when second on turf last time and is on a winning mark if able to build on that. The return to 6f should suit Bungle Bay who is second choice ahead of Catesby.

Admirable Lad should go well after returning to form at Bath but CLOWNSMAN can gain compensation for a luckless reappearance defeat.

Form	Odds	Runs
(1) (0.73/1 +34%) A Different Kind	0.73/1(+34%)	(1) A Different Kind 0.73/1, Multiple winner over hurdles who stepped up on his chase debut effort when second of 5 in handicap (11/8) at Cartmel (17.3f, good) 45 days ago, clear of rest. Leading contender. Not won since novice hurdle days; good second over fences last time; acts on soft; chance.
(2) (3/1 -71%) Silver Sheen	3/1(-71%)	(2) Silver Sheen 3/1, Acquitted himself well in all 3 starts for Fergal O'Brien, latest when second of 4 in handicap chase at Worcester (20f, good, 4/1) 26 days ago. Entitled to build on that (first start for 6 months) and holds solid claims. Last win was over 3m1f over hurdles in 2020; fair second over fences last time; a possible.
(3) (3/1 +25%) Donnie Azoff	3/1(+25%)	(3) Donnie Azoff 3/1, Off the mark at the fifth time of asking over hurdles at Taunton (16.5f) in March and has made a fair start in this sphere. Tries longer trip now and not ruled out. Hurdle win was on heavy; two fair runs over fences; may improve for this step up to 2m4f.

LTO Selection:

17:35 Uttoxeter Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

SILVER SHEEN has progressed with every start since joining the Fergal O'Brien stable and he must hold every chance if building upon a strong runner-up effort at Worcester last time out. Similar comments apply to A Different Kind, who looked to be getting the hang of things in this sphere at Cartmel, while Donnie Azoff has the potential to improve for going up in distance.

A DIFFERENT KIND should have more to offer over fences and can land the opener. Silver Sheen rates the principal danger.

The Donald McCain-trained A DIFFERENT KIND has plenty going for him and is preferred to Silver Sheen.

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (0.22/1 +65%) My Mate Mozzie	0.22/1(+65%)	(5) My Mate Mozzie 0.22/1, Useful gelding. Off 7 months before fading seventh of 10 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good) 34 days ago, not knocked about. The clear form choice with that run under his belt. Classy NH type; only beaten 4l in a Curragh premier handicap last time; should win.
(8) (5.5/1 +8%) Bella Nebula	5.5/1(+8%)	(8) Bella Nebula 5.5/1, Fair ex-French filly. 14/1, first run since leaving G. Hernon when encouraging sixth of 17 in maiden at Leopardstown (15f, good) on IRE debut 19 days ago, fading only late on her first start for 15 months. Player. Some promise on recent yard debut; can improve but unlikely to be enough to score.
(1) (7/1 -27%) Barnacullia	7/1(-27%)	(1) Barnacullia 7/1, Twice-raced gelding on Flat. Useful winner at 18f in chases. 11/1, fifth of 14 in maiden at Roscommon (11.7f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Not discounted. Has run with credit in two Flat maidens lately; looks the main danger to My Mate Mozzie.
(10) (22/1 -100%) Humtaza	22/1(-100%)	(10) Humtaza 22/1, Lightly-raced filly. 16/1, good fourth of 12 in maiden at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 25 days ago, better placed than most. In the picture. Was 2.5l in front of Moon Over Claddagh at Fairyhouse last time; needs to find improvement.
(2) (28/1 +15%) Daghdha	28/1(+15%)	(2) Daghdha 28/1, Fair maiden hurdler for Patrick Martin. Off 12 months before sevent on Flat debut in 13f Sligo maiden. Can do better for his new yard. Beaten 29l by My Mate Mozzie in a Punchestown bumper on debut in 2021; best watched.
(4) (33/1 -136%) Moon Over Claddagh	33/1(-136%)	(4) Moon Over Claddagh 33/1, Twice-raced gelding. Sixth of 12 in maiden (40/1) at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 25 days ago. More is required. Kept on in a Fairyhouse maiden last time and can improve again; a bit to find but run well.
(9) (33/1 +18%) Dreamz	33/1(+18%)	(9) Dreamz 33/1, 8/1 and hood/tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, fifth of 9 in maiden at Down Royal (12.8f, good to soft) on flat debut, slowly away. Needs to step forward. Placed twice in four bumper starts but was well beaten on Flat debut a year ago.
(6) (40/1 -43%) Penny Jar	40/1(-43%)	(6) Penny Jar 40/1, 15/2, third of 18 in handicap hurdle at Navan (20f, soft) 171 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code and no forlorn hope. Improved over hurdles last year; will find this trip sharp enough on Flat debut.
(7) (50/1 +0%) Rock Basher	50/1(+0%)	(7) Rock Basher 50/1, Twice-raced colt. 80/1, sixth of 12 in maiden at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good) 15 days ago. Up in trip with more to do. Mild promise in two maiden runs lately but will have to improve lots raised to this trip.
(11) (100/1 -52%) Loveauntviv	100/1(-52%)	(11) Loveauntviv 100/1, Once-raced mare on Flat. 20/1, last of 9 in maiden at Roscommon (11.7f, good) on flat debut 40 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Soundly beaten in a bumper last year and on recent Flat debut; visor tried.

LTO Selection:

17:50 Tramore Maiden 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Although this race may well be a stepping stone to the Galway Hurdle, MY MATE MOZZIE should be good enough to win for the first time on the Flat. A former Grade 3 winner over flights, the Gavin Cromwell-trained gelding has some very smart handicap form under this code, namely a close second in the November Handicap and a third placing on Champions Weekend at Leopardstown. Given his rating of 92, it will be disappointing if he isn't able to win here en route to Ballybrit. Moon Over Claddagh shaped well when stepped up to this trip at Fairyhouse. The locally-trained five-year-old catches the eye with Colin Keane booked to ride, but he does face a stiff task against the likely favourite. Barnacullia showed promise at Roscommon last week but may do better once switched to handicaps.

MY MATE MOZZIE holds the edge on form and should be all the better for his recent Curragh seventh after a lay-off so gets the vote in a competitive maiden. Bella Nebula shaped well on her debut for Emmet Mullins and rates the chief threat with more expected now from this lightly-raced ex-French filly. Humtaza and Barnacullia can fight it out for minor honours.

A classy NH performer, MY MATE MOZZIE was close-up in a Curragh premier handicap last time and will be too good for these.

17:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (3.5/1 +42%) Spartakos	3.5/1(+42%)	(5) Spartakos 3.5/1, 4/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 11 in minor event at this C&D 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Merits consideration. Two solid efforts over C&D last month and is again drawn to attack; should go well.
(1) (4/1 +33%) Crystal Dawn	4/1(+33%)	(1) Crystal Dawn 4/1, C&D winner. Very good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D (well-backed 7/2) 49 days ago, suited by way race developed. Leading claims. Ex-Irish mare who has a win and two near-misses to her name over C&D; is on the shortlist.
(7) (4.5/1 -13%) All Dunn	4.5/1(-13%)	(7) All Dunn 4.5/1, 3 wins under this rider this year. Fifth of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this course (6.1f) 15 days ago. One to consider. Won three early in the year (6f-1m) and is back around his last successful mark; player.
(8) (5.5/1 +54%) Tea Garden	5.5/1(+54%)	(8) Tea Garden 5.5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fourth of 11 in minor event at this C&D (9/1) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive. Entitled to at least close the gap on Spartakos on better terms but others are stronger.
(6) (6/1 +33%) Ebury	6/1(+33%)	(6) Ebury 6/1, Two wins from 45 Flat runs. Forty one runs since last win in 2019. Sixth of 8 in handicap (14/1) at Yarmouth (8f, good to firm) 48 days ago. Not discounted. Not won since his 3yo days and continues to regress; Pop Favourite his yard's best shout.
(9) (8.5/1 +0%) Latent Heat	8.5/1(+0%)	(9) Latent Heat 8.5/1, Temperamental sort. C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Good fourth of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to firm, 16/1) 16 days ago, hampered. Must improve. Offered more on turf last time and holds each-way claims on that.
(3) (9/1 -157%) Pop Favorite	9/1(-157%)	(3) Pop Favorite 9/1, 14/1, improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner handicap at Newcastle (8f) 20 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Inconsistent; patchy record at best round here and the drop back in trip is a worry.
(2) (14/1 -56%) Final Account	14/1(-56%)	(2) Final Account 14/1, One win from 25 Flat runs. Winner at Newcastle in February. Last of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 11/1) 67 days ago, slowly away. Needs to bounce back. Has been beyond 6f only twice, finishing well beaten each time, and stamina is the worry.
(4) (25/1 +11%) Thakrah	25/1(+11%)	(4) Thakrah 25/1, Seventh of 8 in handicap (16/1) at Leicester (5f, good) 12 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Others make more appeal. Has done most racing since handicapping in sprints and again offered little on turf latest.
(10) (33/1 -32%) Gonzaga	33/1(-32%)	(10) Gonzaga 33/1, Remains a maiden after 43 Flat runs. Sixth of 8 in handicap (28/1) at Lingfield (6f, good to firm) 10 days ago. Has work to do. Longstanding maiden who had countless chances in weak races round here over the winter.
(12) (66/1 -100%) Techno Lady	66/1(-100%)	(12) Techno Lady 66/1, 28/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 12 days ago. Needs to bounce back if she's to make any impact. Didn't offer much on her recent comeback and is hard to recommend.
(11) (125/1 -150%) Darke Horse	125/1(-150%)	(11) Darke Horse 125/1, Last of 7 in handicap at Bath (10.2f, firm, 66/1) 13 days ago. Back down in trip. Not easy to make a case for. Generally poor over various trips and was beaten a long way on his turf comeback.

LTO Selection:

17:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

EBURY is shadow of what he once was but, from a basement rating, he can launch a bold bid here. He has posted several decent efforts in defeat at this course and having dropped to a featherweight since his last visit, he is dangerous to ignore. Spartakos was a couple of places behind the selection when they encountered each other at Beverley in May and is feared most, although Crystal Dawn and Pop Favorite command respect at this level too.

CRYSTAL DAWN is well handicapped and benefited from a return to AW when second over C&D last time, so she's worth chancing to go one better at the possible expense of Pop Favorite, who scored at Newcastle last time. Spartakos is another one to consider.

Usually dropped in, CRYSTAL DAWN's record over C&D is hard to knock and she's preferred to All Dunn.

(3) (1.1/1 +27%) Notre Maison	1.1/1(+27%)	(3) Notre Maison 1.1/1, C&D winner. 11/8, didn't need to improve to win 7-runner minor event at Ffos Las (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago by head from Kodi Dancer, just holding on. Looks a live player in hat-trick bid. Two classified wins to her name since the cheekpieces went on, beating two of these.
(4) (4/1 +56%) Tilsworth Ony Ta	4/1(+56%)	(4) Tilsworth Ony Ta 4/1, One win from 28 Flat runs. 8/1, below form third of 10 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good) 11 days ago, no extra final 1f. Rider takes off handy 5 lb and no forlorn hope in an ordinary affair. Only 1-28; best recent effort was his close fourth here in May when tried in cheekpieces.
(6) (4.5/1 -13%) Kodi Dancer	4.5/1(-13%)	(6) Kodi Dancer 4.5/1, Looked an unlucky loser when runner-up behind re-opposing Notre Maison at Ffos Las (5f) 2 starts back but failed to build on that run when last of 5 back in handicap company at Yarmouth 5 days ago. Can figure if shrugging that off here. Should have beaten Notre Maison at Ffos Las but then had a shocker at Yarmouth.
(2) (9/1 +25%) Ellie Piper	9/1(+25%)	(2) Ellie Piper 9/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 11/1 and hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving Robyn Brisland when sixth of 8 in minor event at Bath (5f, good to firm) 6 days ago, never dangerous. Comes into it on a few of her good runs last year but below par so far in 2023.
(1) (10/1 -150%) Arzaak	10/1(-150%)	(1) Arzaak 10/1, C&D winner. Thirty one runs since last win in 2020. 17/2, respectable 1¾ lengths second of 6 to Notre Maison in C&D minor event 4 weeks ago, ridden from 2f out and keeping on. Should be thereabouts again. Had no answer to Notre Maison on the same terms here four weeks ago.
(7) (16/1 -33%) Northern Chancer	16/1(-33%)	(7) Northern Chancer 16/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap (10/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 15 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Unplaced in all 11 starts and has a bit to find on these terms; a visor may help.
(5) (40/1 -43%) Darlo Pride	40/1(-43%)	(5) Darlo Pride 40/1, 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 10 in minor event at Yarmouth (6f, good) 11 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. 0-7 and certainly not progressing; more new headgear tried.

LTO Selection:

18:00 Brighton Stakes (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

NOTRE MAISON is in the form of her life at present and returning to this C&D, where she won last month, is another plus as she looks to bring up the hat-trick. Stuart Kittow's filly can once again get the better of Kodi Dancer, who was only a head behind her at Ffos Las. Tilsworth Ony Ta was a decent third at Yarmouth and rounds out the shortlist.

No depth to the opener but NOTRE MAISON arrives having landed back-to-back classified contests in recent weeks and could be the way to go in her hat-trick bid. Kodi Dancer and Arzaak head up the dangers.

The safe play has to be NOTRE MAISON, for all that she was fortunate to beat Kodi Dancer at Ffos Las

(7) (1.75/1 +56%) Shengai Enki	1.75/1(+56%)	(7) Shengai Enki 1.75/1, Fair form in bumpers for Mark J. O'Hare, doing well under the circumstances when third in 12-runner event at Kelso (16.2f) 62 days ago. Subsequently sold for £28.000 and worthy of respect on hurdle/stable debut. Ex-Irish; sold for £28,000 after finishing 3rd in Kelso bumper; stable/hurdles debut.
(2) (3/1 +33%) Liverpool Knight	3/1(+33%)	(2) Liverpool Knight 3/1, Fairly useful 14f winner on Flat and pleasing start hurdling/yard debut when third in a Southwell maiden but went backwards at Fakenham next time. Not seen to best effect back on the level at Lingfield on most recent outing. 1m3f winner on the Flat (soft); good hurdles debut but poor effort next time; a possible.
(5) (3.33/1 +26%) The Big Jetaway	3.33/1(+26%)	(5) The Big Jetaway 3.33/1, Immediately surpassed hurdles form when making a successful chasing bow at Sedgefield (17f) in February 2022. Too free at Bangor 10 months later but shaped nicely enough back hurdling after a further 7 months off when 7 lengths third of 10 to Our Scholar over C&D 24 days ago. In the mix. Chase winner; 7l third to Our Scholar (who is 6lb worse off) over hurdles over C&D latest.
(8) (3.5/1 +30%) Star Legend	3.5/1(+30%)	(8) Star Legend 3.5/1, Brother to fair hurdler (25f winner) Maison d'Or and has shown fair form in minor events on the Flat for William Haggas. Not dismissed with Harry Cobden in the saddle. Promise on Flat for William Haggas; hurdles debut; interesting jockey booking; chance.
(6) (18/1 +36%) Activist	18/1(+36%)	(6) Activist 18/1, Fairly useful form on Flat in France, stays 1½m. Sold from X. Thomas-Demeaulte for €41,000 in November but seems to be being brought along with handicaps in mind in this sphere. Quite useful on the Flat in France; not as good over hurdles and improvement needed.
(3) (40/1 +0%) Poppop	40/1(+0%)	(3) Poppop 40/1, Well held in Southwell bumpers 2 years apart and only minor promise so far over hurdles. Will be of more interest in handicaps after this. Modest bumper performer who needs to improve on his two runs over hurdles.
(4) (200/1 -100%) Selecto	200/1(-100%)	(4) Selecto 200/1, Three-time winner on the Flat but out of form on the AW during the winter and he's hard to warm to now switched to hurdles. Three-time Flat winner (latest over 1m4f on good to soft); could go well on hurdles debut.

LTO Selection:

18:10 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

OUR SCHOLAR has been in top form of late and the hat-trick is very much on the cards as he attempts to follow up a comfortable success over C&D last month. A double penalty makes life much more difficult, but he can uphold form with The Big Jetaway (third) from that Uttoxeter contest. Liverpool Knight is a talented sort on the level but has yet to put it together over hurdles.

THE BIG JETAWAY shaped nicely back over hurdles after a 7-month absence when third to Our Scholar over C&D just over 3 weeks ago and promises to achieve more with that under his belt, so may be able to reverse the form with that rival on these more favourable terms and come out on top. Shengai Enki and Star Legend are a couple of others who merit consideration.

Although Our Scholar should go well again he may struggle to give 12lb to STAR LEGEND who is taken to score on his hurdles debut.

Player if back to the form she showed when second at Leopardstown prior to that. Best run this season when second at Leopardstown but was no match for the winner.

18:20 Tramore Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

VERA VERTO can complete a quick double for the Gavin Cromwell stable by following up her recent Ballinrobe victory. On that occasion, the five-year-old made all the running before being eased down to win comfortably. The subsequent 6lb rise she incurred from the handicapper is more than offset by leading apprentice Robert Whearty taking over in the saddle. Queen Of Seduction also raced prominently when winning her maiden at Roscommon last month, before being far from disgraced in two subsequent starts. The Jessica Harrington-trained four-year-old holds strong claims. Banned, who finished second to the aforementioned filly at Roscommon, should get closer on these revised terms. The Joseph O'Brien representative has been very consistent of late, giving the impression that her turn is near.

AGENDA quickened up quite nicely to lead late on at Leopardstown last month and is selected to make light of a 5 lb rise with Colin Keane taking over in the saddle. Jessica Harrington's Queen of Seduction arrives in good nick and rates a threat, while Coill Na Sionainne will also play a part if bouncing back to the form she showed when second at Leopardstown last month.

With Robert Whearty taking over, VERA VERTO is effectively 1lb lower than for her win at Ballinrobe and she's a likeable type.

18:30 Brighton Maiden (Class 5) 7f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(4) (1.38/1 +59%) The African Queen	1.38/1(+59%)	(4) The African Queen 1.38/1, Foaled February 3. The Last Lion filly. Dam 1¼m-1½m winner. In good hands and likely to make her mark first time up. Wouldn't need to be anything special to make her presence felt and market useful.
(1) (2.5/1 +17%) Etihad Rail	2.5/1(+17%)	(1) Etihad Rail 2.5/1, Thrice-raced colt. 3/1, fourth of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 22 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Marcus Tregoning. One to note. Initial promise on turf and Wolverhampton last time didn't really go to plan.
(2) (3/1 -173%) Vice Captain	3/1(-173%)	(2) Vice Captain 3/1, Lightly-raced gelding. 3/1, below form fourth of 9 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 3 days ago. Has the best form but needs to put that sub-par effort behind him. After racing keenly he was well beaten over Beverley's extended 7f on Saturday.
(3) (7/1 +13%) Lady Ava	7/1(+13%)	(3) Lady Ava 7/1, Twice-raced filly. 7/4, sixth of 9 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 33 days ago. Improvement required if she's to feature. Better first time out than on second run but even that form gives her a bit to find.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Brighton Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

VICE CAPTAIN is turned out again quickly after a disappointing effort at Beverley on Saturday and is taken to bounce back. The son of Land Force had previously gone close at Nottingham and he is preferred to newcomer The African Queen and Etihad Rail, who is very interesting on his first start for Alice Haynes having shown plenty of ability when trained by Marcus Tregoning.

THE AFRICAN QUEEN is bred to be suited by a bit further than this trip in time, but she's with a top yard and makes her debut in a winnable affair, so she gets the marginal vote over Vice Captain, who sets the standard but has a tame run at Beverley to shrug off after a quick turnaround. Etihad Rail is also worthy of respect on his first outing for a new stable.

None of those with experience ran that well last time so a chance is taken on the newcomer THE AFRICAN QUEEN.

18:40 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(3) (1.62/1 +46%) Call Me Tara	1.62/1(+46%)	(3) Call Me Tara 1.62/1, Winner of 2 of her 3 starts in maiden/novice company last summer and reappearance third at Ludlow was a creditable effort. Last-fence faller tried over fences last time (looked held by the eventual winner prior to her departure) and she merits respect on handicap debut back hurdling. Bumper/hurdles winner; step up to 2m4f should suit; goes on good to soft; chance.
(4) (1.75/1 +22%) Walk Of No Shame	1.75/1(+22%)	(4) Walk Of No Shame 1.75/1, Opened hurdles account over 2m at Lingfield in February and, equipped with first-time cheekpieces, she found just one too strong in a 4-runner Worcester handicap (2½m, good) last month. 2 lb nudge tolerable and she has to enter calculations. Soft-ground bumper winner who won novice hurdle in February; stays 2m4f; a possible.
(2) (2/1 +64%) Mulberry Hill	2/1(+64%)	(2) Mulberry Hill 2/1, Fair handicap hurdler who was in the process of running well when departing on chasing debut at Ludlow in May. Shaped quite well back hurdling at Market Rasen and she needs a second look. Yard also saddles Call Me Tara. Both wins were over 2m4f including on good to soft; fair run last time and has a chance.
(5) (2.75/1 +0%) Komedy Kicks	2.75/1(+0%)	(5) Komedy Kicks 2.75/1, Fair maiden on the Flat for Jessica Harrington and has scored twice at around 2m over hurdles in recent months. Second in a small-field on second handicap start in this sphere at Newton Abbot (18.5f, good to firm) last time and she shouldn't be far away. Sound placed efforts on soft but recent good efforts have been on faster going; new trip.
(6) (125/1 -25%) Autumn Blaze	125/1(-25%)	(6) Autumn Blaze 125/1, No promise in 2 bumpers and similar story since switched to hurdles, no improvement on the back of a wind op when making handicap debut at Worcester. Very difficult to fancy from a long way out of the weights. Well beaten on all starts; 23lb out of the handicap; would be a surprise winner.

LTO Selection:

18:40 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

KOMEDY KICKS has been very consistent since joining the Milton Harris stable and the step up in trip could be just what is needed to bring about further improvement. The daughter of Churchill should be suited by conditions, with last-start Worcester runner-up Walk Of No Shame looking best placed to chase her home, although Call Me Tara has a good strike-rate in this sphere and must also enter calculations.

A chance is taken on BON RETOUR, who has failed to fire in a handful of appearances for this yard but has now slipped below her last winning mark and is entitled to come on for her spin at Market Rasen where she was returning from a 3-month break. Walk of No Shame, Call Me Tara and Komedy Kicks all have low-mileage over hurdles and are feared in that order of preference.

In an open-looking mares' handicap the stoutly bred CALL ME TARA is taken to score on her first attempt at 2m4f.

18:50 Tramore Handicap 12f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (2.25/1 +10%) Blackpoint	2.25/1(+10%)	(5) Blackpoint 2.25/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2020. Creditable second of 14 in handicap at Tipperary (12.6f, good, 6/1) 6 days ago. 2 lb nudge for that is fair and he has to enter calculations. Good run at Tipperary in a lower grade last time; go well if handling this track.
(4) (2.25/1 +36%) Dark Note	2.25/1(+36%)	(4) Dark Note 2.25/1, 7/4, won 10-runner novice hurdle at Sligo (16.9f, good) on Sunday. Decent fourth on latest Flat start at Cork in May and could have a part to play if turned out again quickly. Got off the mark over hurdles at Sligo on Sunday; good chance if turning out again.
(1) (3/1 -9%) Expound	3/1(-9%)	(1) Expound 3/1, Very good second of 12 in maiden (5/1) at Ballinrobe (9.6f, good) 15 days ago. This new trip should be within range and he's likely to make a bold bid to go one better. Maiden went close at Ballinrobe last time; steps up in trip but a big chance if staying.
(2) (7/1 -17%) Je T'ai Porte	7/1(-17%)	(2) Je T'ai Porte 7/1, 14/1, bit below form third of 6 in minor event hurdle at Wexford (16.7f, good) 20 days ago. Third of 12 off a 1 lb higher mark on latest start in this sphere at Dundalk in January and she needs considering. Won a 2m Clonmel maiden hurdle in May; has to be at her best returned to the Flat.
(6) (7/1 +22%) The Truant	7/1(+22%)	(6) The Truant 7/1, 11/1, bit below form fifth of 12 in handicap at Ballinrobe (12.8f, good) 15 days ago. Likely to find one or two too good. Just one win but consistent enough; should have improved from her Ballinrobe return.
(3) (25/1 -213%) Lakomet Of Saints	25/1(-213%)	(3) Lakomet Of Saints 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Fourth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (17.4f, good to soft, 5/1) 41 days ago. Opposable on handicap debut in this sphere. Best hurdle run for a while when fourth at Wexford last time; a squeak if near best form.

LTO Selection:

18:50 Tramore Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

None of the six can be safely ruled out, with just 5lb between them all on ratings. Ultimately disappointing since winning on his second start at Limerick in September 2020, the locally-trained BLACKPOINT is the suggestion with Shane Foley aboard. He ran a solid race on his return to action last month, clearly improving from that effort by filling the runner-up spot on his next start at Tipperary. The Kodiac gelding came from off the pace at the Limerick Junction venue and may benefit from more positive tactics now. Expound went down by just half a length at Ballinrobe last month and is given second preference, stepping up in trip. Successful over flights at Sligo on Sunday, Dark Note would be popular with punters if turning out again quickly.

This looks competitive, despite the small field. EXPOUND produced his best effort yet when going down narrowly over 9.6f at Ballinrobe and, likely to benefit from this stiffer test, the 4-y-o is taken to open his account at the eighth time of asking in this sphere. Blackpoint also found just one too good last time and is feared most ahead of Je T'ai Porte and recent hurdles winner Dark Note.

EXPOUND is taken to deservedly get off the mark after several decent runs in defeat. He should stay the trip.

Form	Odds	Runs
(1) (1/1 +60%) Chips And Rice	1/1(+60%)	(1) Chips And Rice 1/1, One win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Lingfield in April. 5/2, respectable fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 13 days ago. Leading claims back in Class 5 company. Can be forgiven her defeats since a successful stable debut; considered.
(7) (4/1 -14%) Mrembo	4/1(-14%)	(7) Mrembo 4/1, 10/3, won 9-runner handicap at Newbury (11f, good to firm) 14 days ago. 3 lb rise fair enough and likely to be involved in the finish. Ran poorly on previous visit but she's only 3lb higher than for her recent Newbury win.
(4) (5.5/1 +45%) Giovanni Baglione	5.5/1(+45%)	(4) Giovanni Baglione 5.5/1, Blinkered for 1st time, ninth of 10 in handicap (18/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) 11 days ago. Back up in trip and he needs to find improvement from somewhere. Struggles continued at Newmarket 11 days ago in a race he won the year before.
(3) (7/1 +0%) Queen's Company	7/1(+0%)	(3) Queen's Company 7/1, One win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Yarmouth in June. Fifth of 7 in handicap (7/2) at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) 10 days ago, left poorly placed. Others preferred for win purposes. Combination of a 4lb rise in stronger company found her out at Doncaster.
(5) (9/1 -29%) Ermin Street	9/1(-29%)	(5) Ermin Street 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Newbury (10f, firm) 26 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and capable of a bold show off this reduced mark. Hasn't been shaping like a winner waiting to happen despite edging down the weights.
(6) (20/1 -150%) How Hard Can It Be	20/1(-150%)	(6) How Hard Can It Be 20/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 17/2) 27 days ago. Likely to give another decent account of herself. Has been running well on the AW but Brighton represents a very new experience.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

MREMBO bounced back to winning ways with a determined success under Olivia Tubb over slightly further at Newbury, and she can follow up off a 3lb higher mark. Jonathan Portman's filly can improve past Chips And Rice, who beat her at Lingfield in April. Queen's Company has strong claims if bouncing back to the form of last month's victory at Yarmouth.

CHIPS AND RICE came up short when sent off favourite for a Kempton handicap recently but that was a stronger race than this and she is taken to regain the winning thread. James Fanshawe's charge may have most to fear from Ermin Street, who looks dangerous off this career-low mark, for all that he needs to bounce back following a low-key display at Newbury. Mrembo hit the target last time and is respected up 3 lb, while Forward Flight should also have a part to play.

James Fanshawe's CHIPS AND RICE (nap) wasn't suited by how the race developed last time at Kempton and she remains in good nick.

19:10 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(4) (1.88/1 +25%) Tango Echo Charlie	1.88/1(+25%)	(4) Tango Echo Charlie 1.88/1, Scored over C&D last year and looked a bit rusty on reappearance here last month. Should strip fitter for that, so likely to feature. Hacked up in minor C&D event last May; just two runs since; can come on for recent return.
(1) (3/1 -9%) Butler's Brief	3/1(-9%)	(1) Butler's Brief 3/1, C&D winner. Last of 5 in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Worcester (23f, good) 26 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Given a chance by handicapper but something to prove at the moment. Good weights chance on C&D win last July (good to soft); takes big drop in grade.
(6) (3.5/1 +22%) Decoration Of War	3.5/1(+22%)	(6) Decoration Of War 3.5/1, Showed little promise in 4 starts over fences last summer and shaped as if in need of the run when seventh in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen recently. Should come on for that, so not without hope from an appealing mark back at the scene of his last win. Two staying wins in 2021, including C&D; on handy mark; encouraging return from layoff.
(5) (3.5/1 +36%) Just Sophie	3.5/1(+36%)	(5) Just Sophie 3.5/1, Left her hurdling debut form behind to get off the mark in 7-runner Huntingdon novice (19.5f, good to soft) in March. Not disgraced on either outing since but handicap mark demands improvement. Looked stayer in the making when 2m3f winner in March; stiff tasks since; more to offer.
(3) (14/1 -320%) Toshima	14/1(-320%)	(3) Toshima 14/1, Dual winner over hurdles in 2019 before struggling on the Flat. Not seen in this sphere since but showed he retains ability in points last year. Very much one to monitor in the betting ahead of this debut for a new yard. Temptingly treated back hurdling for new yard but all best form on good or quicker ground.

LTO Selection:

19:10 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Third on her handicap debut at Ffos Las, JUST SOPHIE remains open to improvement in this sphere and could take advantage for a second victory over timber. Tango Echo Charlie would be a threat if returning to the level of his C&D success in May of last year, while Butler's Brief tends to go well at this venue and is interesting in first-time cheekpieces.

TANGO ECHO CHARLIE goes well here and should come on for his reappearance last month, so he's worth chancing from an appealing mark in a race where the majority have something to prove. Decoration of War is in a similar mould in that he's likely to strip fitter for a recent effort and he's regarded as the main danger unless the money comes for Toshima.

None are cast-iron but TANGO ECHO CHARLIE was an eased-down fifth on his recent return from an absence and is capable of better today.

19:20 Tramore Handicap 12f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (1.38/1 +8%) Zoffany Bay	1.38/1(+8%)	(5) Zoffany Bay 1.38/1, 11/1, shaped well when fourth of 14 in handicap at Tipperary (12.6f, good) 6 days ago, ridden from home turn and keeping on. One to consider on the back of that. Solid effort on return to the Flat at Tipperary last week; this is weaker so a big player.
(8) (3.33/1 +26%) Magi Gal	3.33/1(+26%)	(8) Magi Gal 3.33/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2020. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at Tipperary (12.6f, good, 20/1) 6 days ago. Not out of things. A more encouraging effort at Tipperary last week; has to build upon that.
(7) (3.5/1 +42%) While You're Up	3.5/1(+42%)	(7) While You're Up 3.5/1, Seventh of 15 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good, 33/1) 26 days ago. That was his first start for 15 months and entitled to be sharper now. Booking of Keane catches the eye. Has the ability to win this if getting back to some of his older form, including here.
(6) (11/1 +31%) Bardo Contiguo	11/1(+31%)	(6) Bardo Contiguo 11/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2020. 22/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Gowran (8f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has only run twice in the last two years; will have to improve plenty from latest comeback.
(3) (14/1 -75%) Vocito	14/1(-75%)	(3) Vocito 14/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Tipperary (19.5f, soft, 18/1) 7 days ago, in touch until 3 out and weakening quickly. Needs to bounce back returned to the flat. Is off an attractive Flat mark if can return to some of his best form from 2021.
(4) (16/1 -88%) Grizabella	16/1(-88%)	(4) Grizabella 16/1, Hooded for 1st time, bit below form fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft, 16/1) 29 days ago. Up in trip. Not taken lightly. Mostly over hurdles since won last year; some fair runs in defeat; has a squeak.
(1) (16/1 -100%) Herculaneum	16/1(-100%)	(1) Herculaneum 16/1, 16/1, not disgraced fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.2f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Down in trip. Blinkers on 1st time returned to the level. Regressive on the Flat when last seen in 2021; blinkers tried.
(2) (20/1 -11%) Kingsofthemidlands	20/1(-11%)	(2) Kingsofthemidlands 20/1, 33/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Fairyhouse (13.7f, good) 25 days ago, beaten early in the straight. Needs to get back on track dropped in trip. Beaten a long way on last three Flat starts; has dropped 10lb but still not easy to fancy.

LTO Selection:

19:20 Tramore Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

A unique Derby for horses rated in the lowest bracket. ZOFFANY BAY was a bit of an eyecatcher at Tipperary last week and looks well capable of winning a race of this calibre. A Listed winner over flights when trained in France, he was subsequently out of action for almost two years. He ran a huge race on his return at Ascot in February, finishing second on what was his debut for current connections. Disappointingly pulled up on his next two starts, he put in a much-improved performance reverting to the level at Tipperary and can build on that effort now. While You're Up is given second preference with Colin Keane aboard. He ran well to finish fourth on his only previous visit to Tramore and was a solid seventh of 15 at Leopardstown last month, on what was his first start in well over a year. Magi Gal was just a length behind the selection at Tipperary and should be able to make her presence felt with Siobhan Rutledge claiming 5lb. A winner at Fairyhouse last summer when trained by Jack Davison, Grizabella looks the best of the rest.

A number arrive with something to prove but ZOFFANY BAY shaped pretty encouragingly on his belated return to this sphere when fourth at Tipperary last week and shades the vote. Magi Gal and Grizabella head up the dangers.

ZOFFANY BAY (nap) returned to the Flat with a solid run in a more competitive race at Tipperary last week and can take this.

(8) (1.5/1 +33%) Willing To Please	1.5/1(+33%)	(8) Willing To Please 1.5/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, creditable second of 11 in minor event at Ayr (7.2f, firm) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Good shout. Three-time winner who, apart from a blip two runs back, has been running well.
(9) (4/1 +11%) Ceilidh	4/1(+11%)	(9) Ceilidh 4/1, Maiden who twice made the frame in handicaps at around 6f in June (latterly on yard debut). Latest Kempton run disappointing but he remains less exposed than most and possibilities if bouncing back. Two runs for this yard, third over 6f here before faring less well upped to 7f at Kempton.
(7) (5/1 +29%) Shabs	5/1(+29%)	(7) Shabs 5/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. 3/1, creditable third of 7 in minor event at Bath (8f, firm) 13 days ago, not ideally placed. Cheekpieces back on and likely to be in the mix again. Came from behind to chase home two prominent racers in a 1m classified at Bath.
(11) (8/1 -7%) Tranquillity	8/1(-7%)	(11) Tranquillity 8/1, Massaat filly who fared better than previously when third of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f) 16 days ago, faring best of those held up. No surprise to see her thereabouts. Saw out the extended 7f at Ffos Las to be a closing third there 16 days ago.
(3) (10/1 -25%) Madrinho	10/1(-25%)	(3) Madrinho 10/1, Course winner who isn't the easiest to catch right but not seen to best effect on each of his last 2 starts, latterly when eighth of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Veteran who is having his 100th career start; hasn't been great of late.
(10) (12/1 -85%) Centerstage	12/1(-85%)	(10) Centerstage 12/1, Maiden who wasn't seen to best effect when fifth of 8 in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm, 7/1) 8 days ago, staying on final 1f without landing a blow. Not out of things. Struggled in handicaps but could be a greater threat at this level.
(1) (14/1 -27%) Hector Loza	14/1(-27%)	(1) Hector Loza 14/1, Ended losing run at Epsom (7f) last summer but essentially struggled since, below form sixth of 10 in handicap here (7f) last week. Effective on downhill tracks but he's not found his form since changing trainers.
(6) (28/1 -27%) Runner Bean	28/1(-27%)	(6) Runner Bean 28/1, Excuses when last of 7 at Kempton (1m) on penultimate start but never managed to get involved making turf debut when sixth in 12-runner handicap at Newbury (1m) in May. Drops in class after a break. Best form has been at 6f but has not made the frame in eight starts.
(5) (33/1 -18%) Reel Power	33/1(-18%)	(5) Reel Power 33/1, Visored for 1st time, fourth of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm, 33/1) 17 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs to build on that now. 0-8 and yet to place; didn't run too badly in the first-time visor at Lingfield.
(2) (66/1 -136%) Lord Clenaghcastle	66/1(-136%)	(2) Lord Clenaghcastle 66/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton (1m) in February. Sixth of 7 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D (good) 69 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Mark Hoad. Very quiet in his last two runs and now with a new trainer.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Brighton Stakes (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Denied by little more than a length over 7f at Ayr last month, WILLING TO PLEASE rates the one to beat on the back of that performance. Phil Kirby's mare disappointed in a Carlisle handicap prior to that effort, but she should be able to progress at this sort of level. Others of interest include Tranquillity, who finished a decent third at Ffos Las last time out, and the fairly consistent Shabs.

WILLING TO PLEASE arrives having run well on 2 of her last 3 starts, latterly when second at Ayr 17 days ago, and a repeat should see Phil Kirby's mare firmly in the mix. Tranquillity and Centerstage are a couple of 3-y-os who can also play a part, with Shabs another expected to be in the shake up.

The suggestion is WILLING TO PLEASE, who must go close if reproducing the form of her recent second at Ayr.

Form	Odds	Runs
(8) (1.2/1 +60%) Gambie Tiep	1.2/1(+60%)	(8) Gambie Tiep 1.2/1, Only poor hurdler/chaser for Sarah-Jayne Davies and needs a big step forward on his yard debut. Thirteen runs since his last win in 2021 too. Mostly disappointing since arriving in Britain and recently changed hands cheaply.
(4) (2.5/1 -11%) Arbennig	2.5/1(-11%)	(4) Arbennig 2.5/1, Consistent performer who gained a deserved success in 5-runner handicap chase at this C&D (soft) 19 days ago by 12 lengths from Lonimoss Bareliere. Big shout despite taking a 7 lb hike in the weights. Returned to front-running tactics when comfortably beating Lonimoss Bareliere over C&D.
(5) (8/1 -45%) Chemical Warfare	8/1(-45%)	(5) Chemical Warfare 8/1, Got off the mark over fences at Newcastle in May. 5/1, only sixth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) 35 days ago but weighted to go well back chasing now. Returns to chasing but off an 8lb higher mark than for his Newcastle success.
(9) (9/1 +0%) Lonimoss Bareliere	9/1(+0%)	(9) Lonimoss Bareliere 9/1, Remains a maiden after 21 runs but he posted a respectable 12 lengths second of 5 to Arbennig in handicap chase at this C&D (soft) 19 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up again. No threat to Arbennig here last time and he's a longstanding maiden.
(2) (16/1 -14%) Seaforth Mancy	16/1(-14%)	(2) Seaforth Mancy 16/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Stratford (18.7f, good to soft) 21 days ago. This switch to chasing in first-time blinkers needs to spark major improvement. This winning pointer could be a better chaser but he's risky and blinkers are turned to.
(1) (20/1 -82%) Striking Out	20/1(-82%)	(1) Striking Out 20/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (16f, good, 10/1) 26 days ago. Need to bounce back reverted to fences. Even if shrugging aside recent disappointments this trip looks too sharp for him.
(6) (20/1 +20%) Millies Mite	20/1(+20%)	(6) Millies Mite 20/1, Remains a maiden after 21 runs and pulled up in handicap chase at Worcester (20f, good) 26 days ago. Down in trip. Needs a couple of these to falter. Backward step when pulled up at Worcester and she remains a maiden.
(10) (40/1 -60%) Bandit D'ainay	40/1(-60%)	(10) Bandit D'ainay 40/1, Last of 7 in handicap chase at Hexham (15.6f, good, 16/1) 49 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Twenty seven runs since his last win in 2019. Exposed veteran whose good days have become hard to predict; safer to turn elsewhere.
(12) (66/1 -32%) Fair To Dream	66/1(-32%)	(12) Fair To Dream 66/1, Remains a maiden after 17 runs. Only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Stratford (17f, good to soft) 21 days ago so it's very hard to make a case for him from 10 lb out of the handicap. Well behind Famoso at Stratford last time when 40-1; out of the weights.

LTO Selection:

19:40 Uttoxeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

ARBENNIG looked to really enjoy the switch to front-running tactics over C&D last month, scoring by 12 lengths, and a 7lb rise may not be enough to stop Jamie Snowden's gelding from making it two on the bounce. Lonimoss Bareliere was no match for the selection when runner-up on that occasion, but he might get closer on the revised terms. Chemical Warfare appears best of the remainder.

ARBENNIG looked on the top of his game when a wide-margin C&D scorer last time and can defy a 7 lb rise in his current mood at the chief expense of Chemical Warfare, who is weighted to have a big say now back chasing for the first time since winning at Newcastle. In-form maiden Famoso is another who should go well on the back of his good Stratford second.

Jamie Snowden's ARBENNIG (nap) looked full of beans when making all here recently and the rain has come in time for him.

Form	Odds	Runs
(8) (2.75/1 +45%) Longclaw	2.75/1(+45%)	(8) Longclaw 2.75/1, Won 12-runner handicap at Ballinrobe (12.8f, good, 50/1) 15 days ago, driven clear. Up in trip. Should go well again in a thin race. Shock 50-1 winner at Ballinrobe (1m5f) two weeks ago; hit with a 9lb rise.
(1) (3.5/1 -56%) Teed Up	3.5/1(-56%)	(1) Teed Up 3.5/1, Good second of 21 in November Handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, heavy, 6/1) when last seen. Off 7 months. Looks the one to beat if primed for reappearance. Last seen running 2nd in the November Handicap at Doncaster; would prefer softer going.
(6) (5.5/1 +54%) Lord Erskine	5.5/1(+54%)	(6) Lord Erskine 5.5/1, 33/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Roscommon (10f, good to soft) 7 days ago, inadequate test. Significantly back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Should be more at home over this distance. Ran well over hurdles during the winter; 1m2f was too sharp a test last week.
(2) (6/1 +40%) Vultan	6/1(+40%)	(2) Vultan 6/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap at the Curragh (14f, good, 28/1) 34 days ago. Hard to make a solid case for. Hasn't exactly hit the ground running back on the Flat in 1m4f/1m6f handicaps.
(3) (7/1 +0%) Aurora Princess	7/1(+0%)	(3) Aurora Princess 7/1, Below form fifteenth of 26 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Navan (20f, good to soft) 129 days ago. Off 129 days. Significantly up in trip. Ran well when last seen on the Flat, so not a forlorn hope. Not pulled up any trees over hurdles for this yard but she's a five-time Flat winner.
(4) (9/1 +25%) Team Of Firsts	9/1(+25%)	(4) Team Of Firsts 9/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap at Limerick (17f, good, 20/1) 18 days ago. Others make more appeal. Regressed last year and well held under both codes in 2023.
(5) (11/1 -83%) Duty Bound	11/1(-83%)	(5) Duty Bound 11/1, Good third of 13 in handicap (7/2) at Kempton (16f). Off 10 months. First run for yard after leaving Andrew Balding. Worth a market check. Respected on his UK form but has a long absence to overcome on stable debut.
(7) (14/1 +0%) One Cool Poet	14/1(+0%)	(7) One Cool Poet 14/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2019. 50/1, fifteenth of 18 in minor event at the Curragh (12f, good) 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Others make more appeal. Best known for Galway form; hasn't fired in a couple of runs since returning from a break.
(9) (20/1 -150%) Jake Peter	20/1(-150%)	(9) Jake Peter 20/1, C&D winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap (17/2) at Dundalk (12f). Off 91 days. Significantly back up in trip. Five-time winner but not much to shout about since returning from a lengthy break.
(10) (50/1 -100%) Sunwalk	50/1(-100%)	(10) Sunwalk 50/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Clonmel (19.1f, soft) 61 days ago. Up in trip. Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code. Below form on last Flat outing. Hard to fancy. Should appreciate returning to the Flat and this mark is okay.

19:50 Tramore Handicap 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

With Galway just around the corner, this will hardly be a priority for the connections of Teed Up. Last seen finishing second of 21 in the valuable November Handicap at Doncaster, this assignment is likely to be used as a prep run for bigger targets at Ballybrit. His trainer Emmet Mullins also saddles AURORA PRINCESS, who reverts to the level after an unsuccessful spell over flights. A four-time winner when trained by Jessica Harrington, the five-year-old should be able to make her presence felt with Danny Mullins aboard. A winner at Sandown last summer when trained by Andrew Balding, it'll be interesting to see how Duty Bound fares on debut for John Flavin. Bought for 55,000 pounds at Tattersalls in October, he is a half-brother to six-time winner Punctuation, who won over flights at the Grand National meeting at Aintree in April. Longclaw is sure to have his supporters as he bids to follow up a surprise Ballinrobe success, while C&D winner Jake Peter and the Pat Flynn-trained Team Of Firsts are others for the shortlist.

TEED UP was last seen running a big race to finish second in the November Handicap at Doncaster so, provided his shrewd yard have him ready for his return, he should be up to making a successful start to the campaign. Longclaw, who scored at Ballinrobe last time, is considered a danger and Duty Bound can't be dismissed for all that he's another one with fitness concerns.

This looks trappy. Perhaps LONGCLAW can follow up his shock win at Ballinrobe. Teed Up would be interesting if it rained.

20:00 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 7f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(4) (2.25/1 +32%) Film Star	2.25/1(+32%)	(4) Film Star 2.25/1, Improved since handicapping, winning 5-runner C&D handicap (soft) 21 days ago. Much respected with further progress a possibility. Second and first in her two handicaps here; has clearly found her level.
(7) (3/1 +14%) Honeymooner	3/1(+14%)	(7) Honeymooner 3/1, 7/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Windsor (1m, firm) 9 days ago, defeating one who won again the other day. Could be well treated under a 6 lb penalty. Had the run of things at Windsor but she fended off a bang-in-form winner.
(8) (3/1 +25%) Bonkersinabundance	3/1(+25%)	(8) Bonkersinabundance 3/1, Course winner in June. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (16/1) at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 3 days ago. Fourth behind an unexposed winner at Leicester (6f, good to firm) on Saturday.
(2) (7/1 -40%) Diamond Cottage	7/1(-40%)	(2) Diamond Cottage 7/1, 3-3 over C&D this season, the latest win coming when edging ahead late on 3 weeks ago. A further 2 lb nudge seems unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Has won three of her last six starts, all of those wins coming over C&D.
(6) (10/1 +0%) Menalippe	10/1(+0%)	(6) Menalippe 10/1, 6/1, last of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) 26 days ago, very slowly away. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. Second to a huge improver over C&D in May but she needs to rediscover that form.
(1) (14/1 +0%) Ikkari	14/1(+0%)	(1) Ikkari 14/1, Fair form. Last of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 25/1) 27 days ago. Makes turf debut for yard which does well here. First visit here but chance on penultimate effort when second on the AW.
(5) (14/1 -56%) Spanish Mane	14/1(-56%)	(5) Spanish Mane 14/1, C&D winner. 9/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 17 days ago, keeping on well. Another who can't be discounted. Recent Lingfield winner who landed this 12 months ago off a similar mark.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Brighton Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A game winner over C&D on her most recent outing, DIAMOND COTTAGE might be the one to beat, despite a 2lb raised mark. She is three from three at this track and is fancied to mount another bold bid, even though she steps up in class. Storymaker should be respected on her return to turf following a disappointing run at Wolverhampton, while Film Star is a previous track-and-trip winner and must also enter calculations.

HONEYMOONER pulled 8 lengths clear with the thriving Kimnkate, who was successful again at Doncaster on Friday, when getting off the mark at Windsor 9 days ago and a 6 lb penalty may not stop her if in similar form. Last-time-out C&D scorers Film Star and Diamond Cottage can give her most to think about.

A competitive race for the grade. BONKERSINABUNDANCE ran well after missing the break on Saturday and now goes further.

20:10 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (1.25/1 +55%) Magic Mike	1.25/1(+55%)	(5) Magic Mike 1.25/1, Improved in the spring, winning 2m handicaps at Perth and Newcastle. Only nudged up a further 2 lb for latter and taken to complete the handicap. Winner of his last two races, the first on good to soft; on a fair mark; should go well.
(10) (3.33/1 +45%) Robber's Bridge	3.33/1(+45%)	(10) Robber's Bridge 3.33/1, Poor maiden but he has been runner-up twice from his basement mark, including at Bangor (19.5f) last month. Maiden; can pull hard; fair efforts over further last 2 starts; may do better back at 2m.
(9) (4.5/1 +63%) Coeur Aimant	4.5/1(+63%)	(9) Coeur Aimant 4.5/1, Modest maiden hurdler who has been absent since finishing a close second at Cartmel (17f) a year ago. Has had wind surgery. Betting perhaps the best guide to expectations given the length of the lay-off. Maiden over hurdles but good second in Cartmel handicap on latest run nearly a year ago.
(3) (7/1 -8%) What Will Be	7/1(-8%)	(3) What Will Be 7/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2019 but did run better than of late with blinkers added (retained) when second of 4 in seller over C&D (good to soft) 19 days ago. Player if reproducing that level back in a handicap. AW Flat winner; second in a C&D selling hurdle on good to soft latest; this tougher.
(6) (8/1 -7%) Rock On Tommy	8/1(-7%)	(6) Rock On Tommy 8/1, On a winning mark but he's dropped away quite tamely on his 2 outings this summer. Needs a return to a shorter trip to help. Won a C&D selling hurdle in June 2022; not so good since and a bit to prove now.
(1) (16/1 -78%) Faron	16/1(-78%)	(1) Faron 16/1, Dual hurdles winner for Joseph O'Brien last year and ended his time with that stable when second in a Ballinrobe handicap in August. Largely struggled for this yard but latest third of 5 at Hexham was a bit better. Needs to build on that now. Two wins on good to yielding in Ireland; disappointing for this yard; plenty to prove.
(4) (28/1 -155%) Professor Calculus	28/1(-155%)	(4) Professor Calculus 28/1, Won in a first-time visor at Taunton (19f) in February. Well held next 3 starts but stopped the slide with headgear left off when third at Newton Abbot last month. Fell early there back there since. Best efforts have been on good ground; fair third two runs back; change of headgear.
(8) (50/1 +0%) Fou Diligence	50/1(+0%)	(8) Fou Diligence 50/1, Very hard to win with and has lost his form for his current yard too. Others are much preferred. Ex-Irish; poor strike-rate and has been out of form for current yard; others stronger..

LTO Selection:

20:10 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

MAGIC MIKE arrives searching for a hat-trick of victories and the six-year-old commands plenty of respect following a 2lb rise for the most recent of those at Newcastle. Robber's Bridge has stepped forward of late and the drop in trip may elicit further improvement, while the application of first-time cheekpieces might aid the cause of Professor Calculus after his recent tumble at Newton Abbot.

If MAGIC MIKE returns from a short break in the same form as when last seen in the spring he'll stand a good chance of completing a hat-trick. Pot of Paint has been the subject of an interesting trainer change and would rate a possible threat if the betting vibes are strong. What Will Be could also have a part to play if translating the form he showed in a C&D seller last time back to handicap company.

It could pay to side with the hat-trick seeking MAGIC MIKE who still looks feasibly treated after his two wins this year.

20:20 Tramore Handicap 16f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(5) (2.5/1 +58%) Walnut Beach	2.5/1(+58%)	(5) Walnut Beach 2.5/1, 6/1, very good second of 6 in novice chase at Tipperary (16.8f, soft) 7 days ago. Back up in trip. Fair on the Flat, below form on last Flat outing. Has good chance on pick of form. Solid recent efforts over fences and very capable off this sort of mark.
(1) (3.33/1 +26%) All In Peder	3.33/1(+26%)	(1) All In Peder 3.33/1, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at Listowel in June. 13/2, good third of 12 in handicap at Down Royal (12.8f, good) 17 days ago, finishing well. Back up in trip. Likely contender. Now high in the weights, but perhaps he needs this trip now (1m5f last time).
(7) (7/1 +0%) Franno	7/1(+0%)	(7) Franno 7/1, Ended long losing run when taking 13-runner handicap at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft, 7/2) 4 days ago, driven out. 7 lb penalty to carry now but must enter calculations. Rider had matters well in hand when a neck winner at Bellewstown four days ago.
(2) (7.5/1 +0%) Kalmira	7.5/1(+0%)	(2) Kalmira 7.5/1, 8/1, good ½-length second of 15 to All In Peder in handicap at Gowran (13.7f, good to soft) 49 days ago, having run of race. Cheekpieces back on. Respected. Pushed All In Peder close at Gowran and is weighted to reverse those placings.
(8) (8/1 -7%) Wild Shot	8/1(-7%)	(8) Wild Shot 8/1, Made the frame over shorter the last twice, latest when creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Tipperary (12.6f, good) 6 days ago, running on late. Back up in trip. Merits consideration. There's been nothing wrong with his recent fourths over shorter.
(3) (10/1 -33%) Your Honor	10/1(-33%)	(3) Your Honor 10/1, Creditable third of 9 in juvenile hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good, 11/4) 42 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Fair on the Flat, good on last Flat run. Others more persuasive. Dual Flat winner who has developed into a decent hurdler; this mark is fair.
(4) (12/1 -20%) Mephisto	12/1(-20%)	(4) Mephisto 12/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Dundalk in March. Tenth of 14 in handicap (40/1) at Leopardstown (15f, good) 26 days ago. Others preferred. Not wildly appealing on what he's shown back on turf the last twice.
(12) (12/1 +64%) Craic Eile	12/1(+64%)	(12) Craic Eile 12/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Thirteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Tipperary (16f, good, 22/1) 5 days ago. Modest on the Flat, 12/19 on last Flat run. Up against it. Nearly won a handicap hurdle here in June; 0-18 on the Flat and unconvincing.
(10) (20/1 -25%) Appian Way	20/1(-25%)	(10) Appian Way 20/1, First run since leaving Charles O'Brien when pulled up in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Punchestown (24.4f, good to soft) 139 days ago, going in snatches. Off 139 days. Makes limited appeal back on level. Dual hurdle winner; 0-12 on the Flat and was pulled up over hurdles on stable debut.
(9) (28/1 -56%) Scalor	28/1(-56%)	(9) Scalor 28/1, 12/1, bit below form sixth of 15 in handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Can make presence felt. Winning jumper as recently as November; beaten 10l on his return to the Flat at Fairyhouse.
(6) (125/1 -150%) Honketonk Angel	125/1(-150%)	(6) Honketonk Angel 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in maiden (50/1) at Roscommon (11.7f, good) 40 days ago, hampered. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Work to do. The potential is there to raise her game now handicapping at a modest level.

Emmet Mullins is also sure to have something in mind for ALL IN PEDER at Galway. Rated just 42 when successful at Gowran in May, he followed up at Listowel before finishing third over a mile and a half at Down Royal most recently. He stayed on well in the closing stages on that occasion and is likely to appreciate going back up in trip. Just getting into this race on a mark of 65, he looks the one to beat. Kalmira finished just half a length behind the selection at Gowran and given the swing in the weights, she should be able to reverse the form. However, she is unproven over this distance and may struggle to contain the progressive selection. The slow-starting Ballybaun Star finished a never-nearer fourth at Bellewstown on Thursday and is capable of making his presence felt if putting his best foot forward. Successful on Friday, Franno is sure to have plenty of supporters with Robert Whearty again claiming a valuable 7lb, while Wild Shot is another who warrants respect.

WILD SHOT has dropped to a handy mark and should appreciate the step back up in trip. He can land the finale. All In Peder and Franno head the list of dangers.

A few with chances. WILD SHOT arrives here in form and this belated return to 2m is worth exploring.

20:30 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(4) (1.25/1 +38%) Liosa	1.25/1(+38%)	(4) Liosa 1.25/1, Consistent sort who has made a positive start for his current yard, racing wide when fourth of 10 in handicap at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Player eased 1 lb here. Could do with settling better but she's been under 2l away in both her handicaps.
(1) (2.75/1 -10%) Mister X	2.75/1(-10%)	(1) Mister X 2.75/1, Latest win at Lingfield in March. Creditable third of 5 in handicap at this course (7f, soft, 5/1) 21 days ago. Visor on 1st time. This C&D winner is well in the mix. Won a nursery here and successful three times on the AW since then; not in bad form.
(2) (5/1 +17%) Imperiousity	5/1(+17%)	(2) Imperiousity 5/1, Winner at Lingfield in May. Respectable fifth of 10 in handicap (9/2) at Windsor (5.1f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Can give a good account. Holding form well; couldn't get to the front when just behind Liosa at Windsor latest.
(5) (7.5/1 -15%) Morboka	7.5/1(-15%)	(5) Morboka 7.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fifth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW, 22/1) 35 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Not ruled out with few miles still on the clock. Easy to back on handicap debut and finished only fifth of eight.
(3) (7.5/1 -25%) Eight Mile	7.5/1(-25%)	(3) Eight Mile 7.5/1, Winner at Lingfield in March. Only fifth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW, 13/2) 19 days ago. Back down in trip and needs a couple of these to falter. Was running well but last two efforts cast some doubts and he's dropped in trip.
(6) (18/1 +18%) Get Busy	18/1(+18%)	(6) Get Busy 18/1, Yet to fire in two runs in handicaps this term, last of 4 at Bath (5f, good to firm) 55 days ago. Others appeal more. Six-race maiden who has finished out the back in both his handicaps over shorter distances.
(8) (33/1 -32%) Deep Spirit	33/1(-32%)	(8) Deep Spirit 33/1, Still a maiden and only seventh of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (7.6f, good to firm, 28/1) 17 days ago. Down in trip. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Now 0-12 and has finished well down the field in her last four appearances.

LTO Selection:

20:30 Brighton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

It could be worth siding with the unexposed LIOSA, who is now rated 1lb lower following a decent fourth over 5f at Windsor. A return to this trip looks worth exploring and he is fancied to get the better of Mister X, who sports a first-time visor following a fair third over 7f at this venue. Morboka looks the pick of the remainder.

The reliable LIOSA is fancied to build on his promising start for Stuart Kittow and get off the mark at the chief expense of C&D winner Mister X, who could be a big threat if the fitting of a visor ekes out some improvement. In-form Morboka is another to consider.

The likelihood of a strong pace up front and the nature of this track heightens interest in LIOSA who has more potential than 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.
