13:40 Goodwood Handicap (Class 2) 5f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	15 1st (15) (8/1 -60%) Lord Riddiford	8 8/1(-60%)	(15) Lord Riddiford 8/1, Is struggling for form at present but has won the last 2 renewals of this contest, so can't be dismissed lightly. Winner of the last 2 runnings of this (soft and good); lower mark now; very interesting.
2	4 2nd (4) (12/1 +14%) Existent	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Existent 12/1, Highly tried since winning a pair of AW handicaps in early 2022. Ran respectably in a first-time visor returned to handicap company when fifth at Ascot last month but wasn't in the same form there 3 days ago. Hood on for 1st time/cheekpieces refitted. Fair 5f Group form; creditable handicap run in July; down the field at Ascot on Saturday.
3	9 3rd (9) (12/1 +25%) Alligator Alley	12 12/1(+25%)	(9) Alligator Alley 12/1, Completed a hat-trick on AW last winter and encouragingly ended his sequence of slow starts when third in 8-runner handicap at Doncaster (5f, firm) 44 days ago. Not out of things. Useful C&D form as 2yo; favourably treated; excuse in the Dash; best on good or quicker.
4	11 4th (11) (7/1 +50%) Designer	7 7/1(+50%)	(11) Designer 7/1, Has yet to fire this season, her response to pressure a weak one in a listed event at Ayr (5f, firm) 38 days ago. On the plus side, she's been given a chance by the handicapper. Improver over 5f in 2022; below-par efforts on last 2 starts push her down the list.
5th	14 5th (14) (20/1 +9%) Lihou	20 20/1(+9%)	(14) Lihou 20/1, 4 wins from 11 runs this year, latest at Epsom in April. Not seen to best effect under a 7-lb claimer on most recent outing at Chester, having raced wide. Added four 5f races this year; needs something special to win this competitive race.
6th	6 6th (6) (8/1 -60%) Vintage Clarets	8 8/1(-60%)	(6) Vintage Clarets 8/1, Back on the scoreboard at Chester (5.1f) in June and followed up in ready fashion at Newcastle (5f) 13 days later. Posted another good effort when third at Ascot (5f, soft) last time and ought to go well again. Useful efforts at 5f this summer; same mark as recent Ascot 3rd; can go well off same mark.
7th	3 7th (3) (22/1 +33%) Acklam Express	22 22/1(+33%)	(3) Acklam Express 22/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2020 and ran below form in a first-time tongue strap returned to handicap company at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 54 days ago, albeit not ideally placed. Needs to better recent efforts. Won C&D handicap as 2yo; high-class form since; excuses for both British runs in 2023.
8th	5 8th (5) (7.5/1 +6%) Dream Composer	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(5) Dream Composer 7.5/1, Has taken his form up a notch this year, bagging his third handicap when getting up close home at Sandown (5f) last month. Not seen to best effect when down the field at Ascot on most recent outing and better judged on previous form as a result. Won over 6f and 5f here; looked good at Sandown in July; capable of having a say.
9th	2 9th (2) (3.33/1 +17%) Raasel	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(2) Raasel 3.33/1, Another big success story for these connections, winning at listed/Group 3 level last year. Hasn't quite hit the same heights this time round but posted another respectable effort in first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 15 in handicap at Ascot (5f, soft) 17 days ago. Ought to go well again. Yet to match the excellence of 5f runs last summer, including C&D, but not far away.
10th	12 10th (12) (12/1 -100%) Navello	12 12/1(-100%)	(12) Navello 12/1, Returned to form with cheekpieces reapplied when landing 20-runner Epsom Dash (5f, good to firm) 59 days ago, leading close home. Remains feasibly treated on the pick of last season's form. Things never went right here 12 months ago but fine strike-rate at 5f on tricky tracks.
11th	13 11th (13) (9/1 +25%) Whenthedealinsdone	9 9/1(+25%)	(13) Whenthedealinsdone 9/1, C&D winner who was below form in first-time blinkers at Ascot (5f, soft,) on most recent outing. Needs to bounce back in a first-time tongue strap (also refitted with cheekpieces). C&D winner at this meeting in 2021; back on latest winning mark but ebbs and flows now.
12th	7 12th (7) (10/1 +44%) Bedford Flyer	10 10/1(+44%)	(7) Bedford Flyer 10/1, Ran well first 2 starts for new yard but was below form in handicap won by Vintage Clarets at Newcastle (5f) 32 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Two prominent shows in 5f York handicaps for new yard; disappointing on AW in June.

LTO Selection:

LORD RIDDIFORD might not have been at his best recently, but he has won this contest two years on the spin, the latest off 3lb higher, and John Quinn's battle-hardened sprinter is fancied to bounce back at his favoured venue. Navello makes obvious appeal having landed the Dash off 3lb lower in June, while Raasel, who posted an improved effort at Ascot 17 days ago, might not be far away either. Vintage Clarets and Dream Composer are also noted.

RAASEL is still operating a little way below last year's levels but he ran respectably back in handicap company at Ascot on his most recent outing and could be the answer off a 1 lb lower mark, especially now returned to Goodwood where he boasts form figures of 112. Vintage Clarets finished a place ahead of the selection at Ascot and ought to go well again, with Navello and Dream Composer others to consider.

Raasel's C&D form earns him a lot of respect but LORD RIDDIFORD has a special record in this race and can bring up the hat-trick.

13:40 Goodwood Handicap (Class 2) 5f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:00 Beverley Handicap (Class 6) 10f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (5/1 +17%) Dogged	5 5/1(+17%)	(3) Dogged 5/1, Ended a long losing run at Ripon (1m) in April and having disappointed next 2 starts, he duly bounced back to form under positive tactics when landing 9-runner Nottingham handicap (10.2f) last month. Not taken lightly. Made all last time but may face competition for the lead and consistency not strong point.
2	1 2nd (1) (6.5/1 +28%) Just Hiss	6.5 6.5/1(+28%)	(1) Just Hiss 6.5/1, Veteran who arrives in good form, back to winning ways at Newcastle (10.2f) in June prior to a good third behind Dogged at Nottingham (10.2f) 24 days ago, shaken up under 3f out and staying on. Runner-up in this race 12 months ago and he should go well again. Less than 2l behind Dogged last time and 1lb better off; shouldn't be far away again.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +18%) She's Got Bottle	9 9/1(+18%)	(8) She's Got Bottle 9/1, C&D winner. 16/1, below best on the back of 10 weeks off when ninth of 10 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good) 15 days ago. May well be sharper for that run now but she's yet to defy a mark this high. Dual course winner last autumn; could make them all go if allowed her own way in front.
4	4 4th (4) (4/1 +27%) Isle Of Wolves	4 4/1(+27%)	(4) Isle Of Wolves 4/1, Losing run is mounting up but he again ran well despite another slow stride when second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, AW) 3 weeks ago. Visor replaces the blinkers now and he's well capable of playing a part. Consistent, but record of 2-36 sounds a note of caution and does seem better over further.
5th	11 5th (11) (11/1 -120%) La Forza	11 11/1(-120%)	(11) La Forza 11/1, Proved at least as good as ever on the back of a lengthy lay off when headed late on at Bath (10f) in May. Not seen to best effect when fifth at Catterick (12f) last month, staying on final 1f and not out of things in a competitive contest. Has twice run well since returning from a mammoth absence and should go well again.
6th	7 6th (7) (6/1 +57%) Sameem	6 6/1(+57%)	(7) Sameem 6/1, Stepped up on his reappearance when ending long losing run in Ripon Ladies Derby in June. Good second at Hamilton next start but didn't look so well served by drop back to this trip when sixth of 10 in amateur riders' event at Pontefract 4 weeks ago. Rider knows him well, but this trip looked inadequate at Pontefract last time.
7th	5 7th (5) (5/1 +29%) Contrast	5 5/1(+29%)	(5) Contrast 5/1, C&D winner who bounced back to form following 10 weeks off to score at Carlisle (9f, good to soft) 24 days ago, leading entering final 1f. Another in the mix with a repeat from 2 lb higher mark. Won narrowly at Carlisle last month; only 2lb higher but not certain to repeat that effort.
8th	2 8th (2) (12/1 -33%) Viva Voce	12 12/1(-33%)	(2) Viva Voce 12/1, Bounced back to form and overcame a pace bias in the process to score at Musselburgh (1m) in June. Ran to a similar level without troubling the principals when sixth of 11 in handicap back at that venue 4 weeks ago and he's unexposed at this trip. Back off last winning mark and pedigree offers encouragement for the step up in trip.
9th	12 9th (12) (150/1 -50%) Straitouttacompton	150 150/1(-50%)	(12) Straitouttacompton 150/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. Eighth of 12 in handicap (125/1) at Catterick (12.1f, good) 13 days ago. Hard to fancy. 0-18 for current yard and badly out of form at present.
10th	6 10th (6) (6/1 +40%) Barney's Angel	6 6/1(+40%)	(6) Barney's Angel 6/1, Maiden who is proving consistent, fourth of 9 to Dogged in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f) last month. Behind two of these at Nottingham last time; more needed if he is to break his duck.
11th	13 11th (13) (200/1 -33%) L'es Fremantle	200 200/1(-33%)	(13) L'es Fremantle 200/1, Unreliable type. Remains a maiden after 37 Flat runs. Tenth of 12 in handicap at Catterick (12.1f, good, 125/1) 13 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Sole success in 103 starts came over fences in 2018; no apeal.

LTO Selection:

ISLE OF WOLVES appeals for a race of this nature and, with blinkers swapped for a first-time visor, the seven-year-old can expand on the mainly resurgent form he has posted since the turn of the year. The son of Nathaniel finished second at Lingfield when last seen and, with Hannah Dring pitching in with her 5lb claim, another bold effort is expected. Dogged and Just Hiss are closely matched based on last month's Nottingham encounter and are others fancied to be on the premises.

ISLE OF WOLVES needs to cut out the slow starts but he's proved largely consistent from similar marks in recent months and, with a visor replacing the blinkers, he could just be worth chancing to put it all together. Carlisle-scorer Contrast, La Forza and Dogged head up the dangers in what rates a competitive opener.

It may be worth siding with QUOTELINE DIRECT who likes tracks with a stiff finish and the stable won a division of this last year.

Sixth of 11 in novice at Naas (5.9f, good, 11/2) on debut 24 days ago. Tongue strap on. Should progress. Showed lots of early speed before weakening into sixth when only 11-2 at Naas (6f, good).
2	3 2nd (3) (0.67/1 +51%) Array	0.67 0.67/1(+51%)	(3) Array 0.67/1, No Nay Never colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 1m winner Maximal and 6f/7f winner Jubiloso, both smart.

Third of 13 in novice event (15/2) at Windsor (6f, good to firm) on debut 15 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement. Had a wide trip when third at Windsor; anticipated improvement should see him in the mix.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/1 -57%) Dorney Lake	11 11/1(-57%)	(8) Dorney Lake 11/1, Foaled March 16. 58,000 gns foal, 110,000 gns yearling, Ardad colt.

Half-brother to 2-y-o 6f winner Donnybrook and useful winner up to 8.2f Sky Angel. Dam, 9.2f-1½m winner, sister to very smart winner up to 1½m Royal Bench. Yard has good record in this. Likely type. 300,000gns foal; interesting newcomer from a yard that targets this meeting.
7th	12 7th (12) (22/1 -22%) Robbo	22 22/1(-22%)	(12) Robbo 22/1, Foaled January 13. £40,000 yearling, Camacho colt. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to Preis der Diana winner Mystic Lips, runner-up in German 1000 Guineas. £40,000 yearling; fourth foal; dam German middle-distance maiden.
8th	5 8th (5) (50/1 -52%) Cloud King	50 50/1(-52%)	(5) Cloud King 50/1, Foaled February 17. 100,000 gns yearling, Night of Thunder colt. Dam unraced closely related to smart 5f-7f winner Hajoum and half-sister to smart 5f winner Swiss Lake out of useful winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f/6f winner) Blue Iris. 100,000gns yearling; bred to be quick and market can guide.
9th	6 9th (6) (66/1 -100%) Dark Dreamer	66 66/1(-100%)	(6) Dark Dreamer 66/1, Foaled March 28. 50,000 gns foal, 45,000 gns 2-y-o, Oasis Dream colt.

Dam unraced close relative of Irish St Leger winner Royal Diamond. 45,000gns 2yo; market should be informative with connections doubly represented.
10th	7 10th (7) (22/1 -10%) Darroch	22 22/1(-10%)	(7) Darroch 22/1, 40,000 gns yearling, Time Test colt. Dam 5f-7f winner. Third of 5 in novice at Salisbury (6f, good to firm, 14/1) on debut 44 days ago. Should have more to offer. No danger to the front two at Salisbury but shaped nicely and should improve.
11th	14 11th (14) (12/1 -200%) Union Island	12 12/1(-200%)	(14) Union Island 12/1, 12,500 gns yearling, £46,000 2-y-o, U S Navy Flag colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner Lord Sam's Castle. Dam of little account, sister to very smart winner up to 1m Footstepsinthesand. 9/1, second of 4 in maiden at Hamilton (6f) on debut 11 days ago. May well do better. 9-1 and outsider of the four runners when splitting experienced opposition at Hamilton.

Dam 1m-1½m winner. 14/1, third of 5 in maiden at Brighton (6f, soft) on debut 42 days ago. Open to progress. Only just missed out at Brighton but in a modest race and this will be way tougher.
13th	13 13th (13) (33/1 -50%) Rockytherockstar	33 33/1(-50%)	(13) Rockytherockstar 33/1, Foaled March 31. €25,000 foal, €85,000 yearling, Oasis Dream colt.

Dam unraced half-sister to smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Gutaifan. 85,000euros yearling; 7th living foal; closely related to Spanish 1m winner War Of Dance.

LTO Selection:

An intriguing maiden in which ARRAY gets the vote in following a pleasing second on his racecourse debut at Newbury last month, beating subsequent winner Indian Run into third. His pedigree needs no introduction to any racing fan and, given his dam is a half-sister to the world-class Frankel, there is likely much more to come from Andrew Balding's inmate. Alaskan Gold finished third over this distance at Nottingham on his racecourse debut and is feared most, while the unraced A La Noche appeals most of the newcomers.

ARRAY came with a reputation and duly shaped encouragingly first time up at Newbury, going down only to a useful one with experience and pulling clear from a subsequent winner. He looks useful and can go one better. A La Noche and Dorney Lake are a couple of newcomers to note.

Andrew Balding's ARRAY, who has a Gimcrack entry, was strong in the market when second at Newbury and the third impressed on Saturday.

14:25 Yarmouth Handicap (Class 6) 7f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (11/1 +0%) Luna Queen	11 11/1(+0%)	(5) Luna Queen 11/1, 22/1, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW) 50 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Never been consistent and doesn't arrive in any form for a yard that's been quiet of late.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/1 -10%) Rogue Star	11 11/1(-10%)	(4) Rogue Star 11/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 28/1, last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 84 days ago. Longstanding, regressive maiden who's been tried over various trips/in various headgear.
3	3 3rd (3) (3.33/1 +26%) Ideal Guest	3.33 3.33/1(+26%)	(3) Ideal Guest 3.33/1, 50/1, fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 13 days ago. Chance on old form. Front-runner; best effort of the year here latest and that gave something to build on.
4	1 4th (1) (5/1 +0%) Weydaad	5 5/1(+0%)	(1) Weydaad 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 7/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) 11 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Retains some potential, especially now she's dropped in class in a first-time tongue-tie.
5th	6 5th (6) (1.25/1 +38%) Streaky Bay	1.25 1.25/1(+38%)	(6) Streaky Bay 1.25/1, C&D winner. 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner here in July. Respectable second of 6 in handicap at Haydock (7f, good to soft, 5/2) 11 days ago. Leading claims. Surprise winner over C&D on her return from a year off early last month; leading claims.
6th	7 6th (7) (8.5/1 -143%) Fayasel	8.5 8.5/1(-143%)	(7) Fayasel 8.5/1, Consistent sort. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap (4/1) at Epsom (7f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Merits consideration. Consistent since a Tapeta win off 5lb lower but has to improve on his latest Epsom effort.
7th	9 7th (9) (25/1 -25%) Betterment	25 25/1(-25%)	(9) Betterment 25/1, 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 12 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 6 months. Hood back on. Lost her way in the winter and Streaky Bay is clearly her yard's best shot.

LTO Selection:

A first-time tongue-tie needs to aid Weydaad's cause, given she arrives here following a disappointing run at Newmarket last month. Although she secured a decent third at Kempton on her penultimate outing, a tentative vote is given to STREAKY BAY, who won over this C&D last month. She ran well enough in defeat off her revised mark when second at Haydock 11 days ago and should appreciate a return to this venue. Fayasel is another to consider off a sliding handicap mark.

STREAKY BAY has made a positive start this summer after a year off and is the obvious selection, with the reliable Fayasel best of the others.

The suspicion is that there's more to come from the lightly raced WEYDAAD and she's preferred to Streaky Bay.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (6/1 +40%) Lechro	6 6/1(+40%)	(2) Lechro 6/1, Creditable fifth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Hamilton (13.1f, good) 11 days ago. Visor replaced cheekpieces and assessor giving her every chance. 0-14; return to 1m4f may not be ideal; visor on.
2	9 2nd (9) (11/1 -10%) Mad Artymaise	11 11/1(-10%)	(9) Mad Artymaise 11/1, Creditable third of 9 in minor event at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm, 14/1) 41 days ago, barely adequate test. Significantly back up in trip, which will suit. 0-13 and is still to prove her stamina over this far.
3	6 3rd (6) (12/1 -20%) Anieres Girl	12 12/1(-20%)	(6) Anieres Girl 12/1, Unreliable individual. 12/1, refused to race in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 7 days ago. Significantly up in trip but backing her clearly comes with risks attached. Poor since returning in April and refused to race at Wolverhampton a week ago; risky.
4	5 4th (5) (14/1 +0%) Crossbeau	14 14/1(+0%)	(5) Crossbeau 14/1, Backward step when seventh of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f) 36 days ago, albeit he was posted wide. Visor on for first time. Ran well on return here in May and race not run to suit last time; could go well; visor on.
5th	7 5th (7) (8/1 +27%) Gerrots	8 8/1(+27%)	(7) Gerrots 8/1, Creditable fifth of 11 in minor event (14/1) at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) 7 days ago. Others more persuasive. Not beaten far at Musselburgh a week ago, but now 0-18 and needs to find a bit more.
6th	8 6th (8) (7.5/1 -67%) Grand Duchess Olga	7.5 7.5/1(-67%)	(8) Grand Duchess Olga 7.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1 and blinkered for first time, very good second of 6 in handicap at Bath (14f, firm) 53 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Rae Guest and more interesting than most at this level. Improved for blinkers when second at Bath last time; could go well on stable debut.
7th	1 7th (1) (3.33/1 +33%) Ask Peter	3.33 3.33/1(+33%)	(1) Ask Peter 3.33/1, Fourth of 6 in handicap at Wetherby (13f, good to firm, 7/2) 56 days ago, having run of race. Doesn't look straightforward but this is a pretty big drop in class. Drops in class and trip, but is 0-12 and looks a hard ride.
8th	3 8th (3) (5.5/1 +75%) Chinese Whisperer	5.5 5.5/1(+75%)	(3) Chinese Whisperer 5.5/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2019. Almost certainly needed the run when eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (9.9f, good to soft, 16/1) 14 days ago, missing break. Up in trip and this will reveal more. 2yo AW winner; well held when returning from absence here last time; plenty to prove.
9th	10 9th (10) (16/1 +11%) Beyond Beauty	16 16/1(+11%)	(10) Beyond Beauty 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (9.9f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive. 0-5, but not beaten far here last time and still unexposed; can't be dismissed.
10th	11 10th (11) (6/1 -33%) Time In Motion	6 6/1(-33%)	(11) Time In Motion 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm, 7/4) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces on for first time and was clearly backed as though thought capable of much better last time. Well beaten all four starts but was very well backed last time; cheekpieces on.

LTO Selection:

The first-time blinkers might prompt some improvement from Buford, while the lightly-raced Time In Motion was well supported in the betting on her handicap debut at Yarmouth last time out and could make some progress now she is tried with cheekpieces applied. However, ASK PETER has competed in some deeper races before now and his proven stamina could give him a vital edge today. Gerrots is another with a reasonable chance at this level.

GRAND DUCHESS OLGA made much more of an impact fitted with blinkers when runner-up in Bath in June and she can make her first start for hew new yard a winning one. Ask Peter isn't straightforward but this is a drop in grade. while it will be interesting to see whether the money comes for Time In Motion again.

This can go to GRAND DUCHESS OLGA who appeared to improve for the fitting of blinkers when second at Bath last time.

14:50 Goodwood Handicap (Class 2) 10f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (33/1 -18%) Ancient Rome	33 33/1(-18%)	(3) Ancient Rome 33/1, Useful ex-French 1m/9f winner who posted a solid third of 4 in Prix Messidor at Chantilly (1m, good) 16 days ago. Can't be discounted now stepping up in trip on his yard/handicap debut. Won French Group 3 at 2 (1m, good to soft); mixed since; tough handicap for British debut.
2	8 2nd (8) (10/1 +0%) Haunted Dream	10 10/1(+0%)	(8) Haunted Dream 10/1, Enhanced his good strike rate on the AW when scoring at Chelmsford in April and comes here on the back of a cracking third of 18 to Pride of America in John Smith's Cup at York. This reliable sort must enter calculations. Solid contender on 1m2f form at Sandown and York (good and good to soft); involved again.
3	2 3rd (2) (8/1 +11%) Pride Of America	8 8/1(+11%)	(2) Pride Of America 8/1, Much improved this term on the back of another breathing op, scoring at Chester in May and in John Smith's Cup at York 17 days ago. Has a career-high mark to overcome now but he still can't be taken lightly. Continued fine handicap form for yard with big 1m2f York win latest; others less exposed.
4	12 4th (12) (11/1 +31%) Paradias	11 11/1(+31%)	(12) Paradias 11/1, Returned to winning ways at Sandown in June and not disgraced when fifth of 13 to Lord Protector there (10f, good) 24 days ago. One for the shortlist. Has course form; good 1m2f win in June but well held next time; has share of weight.
5th	6 5th (6) (18/1 -29%) Caius Chorister	18 18/1(-29%)	(6) Caius Chorister 18/1, Rapid improver in handicaps last year, completing a 5-timer at this meeting. In excellent form this term too until coming in last of ten in listed event at Pontefract last month. Sort to bounce back. Determined winner over 1m3f here last July but others may now be better treated.
6th	7 6th (7) (6.5/1 +28%) Lord Protector	6.5 6.5/1(+28%)	(7) Lord Protector 6.5/1, Arrives on the up and opened his account for 2023 in 13-runner handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 24 days ago by ¾ length from Haunted Dream. Up 4 lb but well in the mix. Good 5th from off the pace in this race last year; slow start to 2023; in good form now.
7th	11 7th (11) (3.33/1 +17%) Eagle's Way	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(11) Eagle's Way 3.33/1, Most progressive last summer, winning all of his 4 starts, and he resumed from 10 months off with a promising runner-up in 10f Yarmouth handicap five days ago. Has more to offer so this low-mileage 4-y-o holds excellent claims off an unchanged mark. Won all 4 handicaps at 1m2f in 2022; close 2nd on reappearance; quick return; bang there.
8th	1 8th (1) (40/1 -21%) Cadillac	40 40/1(-21%)	(1) Cadillac 40/1, Cheekpieces on for the first time when opening account for George Boughey at Epsom last month. Badly hampered early in the Wolferton so that run easy to forgive and he's back in a handicap starting out for a new yard. Considered. C&D form on good to soft; improved to win 1m2f Epsom handicap in June; up 5lb; new yard.
9th	9 9th (9) (3.5/1 -5%) Millebosc	3.5 3.5/1(-5%)	(9) Millebosc 3.5/1, Placed form at highest level as a 3-y-o when trained in France and he has made a very pleasing start for his current yard, off 8 months before running-on seventh of 18 to Pride of America in John Smith's Cup at York. Very much one to consider off an unchanged mark. High-class 3rd in French Derby; disappointing since; glimmers for new yard with excuses.
10th	14 10th (14) (25/1 +0%) Marhaba The Champ	25 25/1(+0%)	(14) Marhaba The Champ 25/1, Low-mileage 4-y-o who resumed progress on back of 7 months off when landing 10f York handicap in May. Tongue tied when only fair sixth at Epsom since so more is needed. Won 2 of 4 handicaps but soundly beaten in the other two; more needed on best efforts.
11th	4 11th (4) (28/1 -12%) Imperial Fighter	28 28/1(-12%)	(4) Imperial Fighter 28/1, Third in last year's Irish 2000 Guineas but below that form since. Slightly better signs when fifth in Epsom Group 3 in June and raced in unfavoured centre when 23rd in Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot last time. More is needed in a first-time hood. Winless since 7f debut at this meeting in 2021; out the back in the Hunt Cup; now hooded.
12th	13 12th (13) (33/1 +18%) Kitsune Power	33 33/1(+18%)	(13) Kitsune Power 33/1, Made excellent strides in handicaps last year, gaining third success at Beverley (10f) in August. Posted a good third at Lingfield (10f) 26 days ago so possibilities off an easing mark. Good effort when 2nd in 1m1f handicap here last July; prefers good or quicker ground.
13th	10 13th (10) (20/1 -67%) Outbreak	20 20/1(-67%)	(10) Outbreak 20/1, Comfortably landed 1m handicap at Newmarket in May. Ridden too aggressively when twenty sixth of 30 in Royal Hunt Cup at Royal Ascot last time so no surprise to see him get back on track for yard which has excellent record in this event. Not yet proved stamina beyond 1m on turf but yard won 4 of the last 9 runnings of this.
14th	15 14th (15) (16/1 -60%) Moktasaab	16 16/1(-60%)	(15) Moktasaab 16/1, C&D winner but he's an unreliable sort overall and came in only eleventh of 13 to Lord Protector in handicap at Sandown (10f, good) 24 days ago. Others appeal more. Had every chance when 3rd in this last year; 5lb lower now but has difficult win task.
15th	5 15th (5) (22/1 -83%) Soto Sizzler	22 22/1(-83%)	(5) Soto Sizzler 22/1, Course winner when under the care of David Menuisier. Shaped well on only his second run for current yard when third of 8 in 10f handicap at Epsom in April. Interesing after a break with Ryan Moore (won on him twice before) back in the saddle. No real show in two previous runnings but 7lb lower than last July; 3rd run for new yard.

LTO Selection:

PRIDE OF AMERICA (winner), Haunted Dream (third) and Millebosc (seventh) were heavily involved in a good quality renewal of the John Smith's Cup at York last month and, while they all boast solid claims, the former shades preference and is fancied to come out on top again off just a 4lb higher mark. The ground has come up in his favour and, with Frederick Larson able to claim 3lb, there is a lot to like about his chance. Sandown winner Lord Protector is another who commands attention.

EAGLE'S WAY failed in his bid for a five-timer when runner-up at Yarmouth last week but still posted a promising effort after ten months off the track so Sir Mark Prescott's improver is taken to resume winning ways. William Haggas' Millebosc caught the eye when seventh in the John Smith's Cup last time and heads the list of dangers, although the quartet of Soto Sizzler, Outbreak, Haunted Dream and Paradias all have plenty to recommend them too in this ultra-competitive handicap.

There has been enough promise in MILLEBOSC's two runs for William Haggas to think he has a big handicap in him off his current mark.

1	11 1st (11) (50/1 -213%) Charming Whisper	50 50/1(-213%)	(11) Charming Whisper 50/1, Once-raced maiden. Sixth of 10 in maiden at Kempton (7f, 11/1) on debut 34 days ago, merely closing up late. Up against it. Looks one for handicaps in due course.
2	4 2nd (4) (1.2/1 +60%) Loaded Quiver	1.2 1.2/1(+60%)	(4) Loaded Quiver 1.2/1, Promising sort who offered plenty to work on when second of 10 in maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good to soft) on debut 22 days ago. Shortlist material. Showed promise when second in Chepstow maiden last month and looks open to progress.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/1 -50%) Spanish Blaze	6 6/1(-50%)	(1) Spanish Blaze 6/1, Left debut form well behind when taking 12-runner minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago, readily. Has to concede weight all round here but likely capable of better yet. Leading player provided he backs up the form of 50-1 success at Newbury.
4	2 4th (2) (150/1 -88%) Anonymous Guest	150 150/1(-88%)	(2) Anonymous Guest 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Last of 15 in maiden (40/1) at Leicester (6f, good) on debut 56 days ago, very slowly away. Inauspicious debut at Leicester eight weeks ago.
5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 -25%) Marefuori	10 10/1(-25%)	(6) Marefuori 10/1, Once-raced maiden. 10/1 and tongue strap on, third of 6 in maiden at Epsom (7f, good) on debut 27 days ago, slowly away. Should have more to offer. Clear signs of ability at Epsom despite not looking comfortable with the track.
6th	3 6th (3) (33/1 -267%) Lambert	33 33/1(-267%)	(3) Lambert 33/1, Foaled March 29. 25,000 gns yearling, Due Diligence gelding. Half-brother to winner abroad by Adaay. Dam, 6f-1m winner who stayed 1¼m, sister to very smart winner up to 6f Alben Star. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. 25,000gns yearling by Due Diligence; market instructive.
7th	7 7th (7) (18/1 +28%) Shalabam	18 18/1(+28%)	(7) Shalabam 18/1, Foaled April 29. €9,000 yearling, 23,000 gns 2-y-o, Shalaa gelding. Half-brother to 13f/1¾m winner Sandstorm. Dam, useful French 1m winner, closely related to very smart winner up to 16.2f (stayed 2½m) Nayef Road. Likely a longer-term prospect. 23,000gns 2yo; by Shalaa; market informative.
8th	10 8th (10) (12/1 -20%) Beauty Generation	12 12/1(-20%)	(10) Beauty Generation 12/1, Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 10 in maiden (9/2) at Kempton (7f) on debut 34 days ago, nearest finish. May well do better. Ran to a modest RPR on debut but may do better.
9th	8 9th (8) (7/1 -56%) This Time Maybe	7 7/1(-56%)	(8) This Time Maybe 7/1, Ran with plenty of promise when fourth of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (6f, AW) on debut 43 days ago. Step up in trip looks sure to suit and merits consideration. Debut effort suggests he'll relish this extra furlong; one to consider.
10th	5 10th (5) (6.5/1 +35%) Magnificent Match	6.5 6.5/1(+35%)	(5) Magnificent Match 6.5/1, Twice-raced maiden. 28/1, third of 9 in minor event at Newmarket (6f, good) 33 days ago. Each-way claims. Holds place possibilities if backing up latest effort.
11th	12 11th (12) (9/1 +44%) Knewone	9 9/1(+44%)	(12) Knewone 9/1, Foaled March 9. Sogann colt. Dam unraced half-sister to smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Anjaal. Yard adept at readying a newcomer and worth monitoring in the market. Newcomer by Sogann out of unraced mare; check the betting.
12th	9 12th (9) (150/1 -88%) Acclaim To Royalty	150 150/1(-88%)	(9) Acclaim To Royalty 150/1, Once-raced maiden. 25/1, ninth of 10 in maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good to soft) on debut 22 days ago. Well behind Loaded Quiver at Chepstow.

LTO Selection:

A case can be made for several of these, but LOADED QUIVER looks the one to side with following a decent second over this trip at Chepstow on his racecourse bow. He is related to a few smart types, including Group 3 winner Mighty Gurkha, and he is taken to improve further with this in mind. Spanish Blaze stepped forward considerably from his debut to score over 6f at Newbury most recently and is feared under a 6lb penalty, while Magnificent Match completes the shortlist.

Preference is for THIS TIME MAYBE, who was doing all his best work at the finish on debut at Lingfield in June and will have learnt plenty from that experience. Spanish Blaze and Loaded Quiver head the list of dangers.

Judged on breeding, LOADED QUIVER looks poised to build on his Chepstow effort and go one better. This Time Maybe is second choice.

2	2 2nd (2) (3.33/1 -33%) Galactic Charm	3.33 3.33/1(-33%)	(2) Galactic Charm 3.33/1, 40,000 gns foal, €60,000 yearling, Sea The Moon colt. Brother to 7f winner Gold and half-brother to several winners, including smart 1¼m-1½m winner Gibbs Hill. Third of 11 in novice at Ascot (7f, soft, 25/1) on debut 17 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement. Promising third on Ascot debut last month; major player with the experience under his belt.
3	7 3rd (7) (1.2/1 +40%) Tribal Rhythm	1.2 1.2/1(+40%)	(7) Tribal Rhythm 1.2/1, £150,000 yearling, Ulysses colt. Half-brother to high-class sprinter Bradsell and 1m winner May Punch. Dam 2-y-o 6f/7f winner. Promising sort. 11/1, fourth of 8 in novice at Haydock (7f, good to firm) on debut 26 days ago, never nearer. Likely to improve. Promising fourth on Haydock debut; stable won this last year.
4	9 4th (9) (28/1 -40%) Miss Gitana	28 28/1(-40%)	(9) Miss Gitana 28/1, Foaled February 27. Nathaniel filly. Dam, 5.7f-7f winner (including at 2 yrs), half-sister to smart winner up to 1¼m Trevaunance. Attractive pedigree makes her worth monitoring in the market.

Dam, 7f winner, sister to smart winner up to 1m Yellow Rosebud. Last of 9 in maiden (28/1) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) on debut 41 days ago. Up in trip. Last of nine on his Hamilton debut in June; needs a major step up.
6th	3 6th (3) (20/1 -25%) Game Management	20 20/1(-25%)	(3) Game Management 20/1, Foaled April 14. 20,000 gns foal, €15,000 yearling, €75,000 2-y-o, Nathaniel colt. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to smart winner up to 16.6f Mildenberger. Stable can get them ready first time and worth a market check.
7th	8 7th (8) (50/1 -100%) Trust Time	50 50/1(-100%)	(8) Trust Time 50/1, Foaled April 2. Time Test colt. Half-brother to winner up to 7f Baronial Pride. Dam 6f winner. Faces a stiff task on debut and stable's newcomers usually better for a run.
8th	4 8th (4) (80/1 -60%) Okinawa	80 80/1(-60%)	(4) Okinawa 80/1, U S Navy Flag colt. Half-brother to 1m winner Aurophobia and 1¼m-1¾m winner Miram. Dam sprint maiden half-sister to useful winner up to 6f Bridge Royal Game. Sixth of 8 in novice at this C&D (soft, 22/1) on debut 42 days ago, slowly away. Well held on his debut over C&D in June; will need to have improved plenty to figure.

LTO Selection:

EXPERT CHOICE paid the price for a slow start in a deeper-looking race over C&D last month, but the manner in which he stayed on to go second near the finish created a very favourable impression. With progression expected, he appears the one to be with. Galactic Charm should also be wiser after making a pleasing start when third in a novice at Ascot 17 days ago, while Tribal Rhythm can figure with a step forward from last month's debut in a similar event at Haydock.

EXPERT CHOICE was left with a lot to do when runner-up to a subsequent winner over C&D last time so shades the vote over Tribal Rhythm, who showed plenty to work on when fourth at Haydock. Galactic Charm is another who made an encouraging start at Ascot so needs considering, too.

The vote goes to GALACTIC CHARM who appeared to exceed market expectations when third on his Ascot debut having been sent off at 25-1.

1	2 1st (2) (2.25/1 +32%) Haatem	2.25 2.25/1(+32%)	(2) Haatem 2.25/1, Bath maiden winner who took his form up a notch when fifth of 20 in Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Confirmed stamina for 7f when runner-up in the Group 2 Superlative Stakes and that form puts him right in the mix. No match for City Of Troy last time (over 7f) but beating the rest so easily bodes well.
2	3 2nd (3) (3.33/1 +26%) Iberian	3.33 3.33/1(+26%)	(3) Iberian 3.33/1, Well backed and posted fairly-useful effort when taking 13-runner novice event at Newbury over 6.5f, on debut in June. Open to plenty of improvement, particularly over 7f so he's dangerous to rule out. The form of his Newbury win has taken some knocks but he did that very easily.
3	4 3rd (4) (11/1 -47%) Mountain Bear	11 11/1(-47%)	(4) Mountain Bear 11/1, Left his debut run behind when landing big-field maiden at the Curragh in June. Hampered early when seventh of 9 in the July Stakes and on the evidence of that race, he's ready for 7f. Only seventh in the July Stakes at Newmarket and others have more pressing claims.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 -14%) Golden Mind	4 4/1(-14%)	(1) Golden Mind 4/1, Half-brother to Perfect Power who won the Norfolk and Commonwealth Cup and he's going the right way himself, building on an encouraging debut when landing 6f Leicester maiden. Stuck to the task really well when third in thew Chesham over 7f when last seen. Closing in fast on the winner when third in the Chesham at Royal Ascot; solid claims.
5th	6 5th (6) (20/1 +0%) Son	20 20/1(+0%)	(6) Son 20/1, Built on encouraging debut effort when taking 10-runner maiden at Newbury (6.5f) with a but in hand. Fared about as well as could be expected when fifth of 9 in the Superlative Stakes over 7f 17 days ago. Newbury winner who had a reality check when nowhere in the Superlative at Newmarket.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 +0%) Witness Stand	14 14/1(+0%)	(9) Witness Stand 14/1, Foaled January 24. 80,000 gns foal, Expert Eye colt. Half-brother to 3 winners and created a fine impression himself when taking 7-runner maiden on debut at Chester in June (7f). Wasn't extended to so and he's a sure-fire improver. Doubt he beat much at Chester and brings up the rear on Topspeed/RPR figures.
7th	5 7th (5) (20/1 -25%) Soldier's Gold	20 20/1(-25%)	(5) Soldier's Gold 20/1, Going the right way, off the mark in Carlisle novice in June before finding a jolt of progress to follow up switched to a nursery at Ascot. Well worth his place in this grade tackling 7f for the first time. Made light work of top weight in an Ascot nursery and evidently progressing well.
8th	8 8th (8) (8/1 +0%) Thunder Blue	8 8/1(+0%)	(8) Thunder Blue 8/1, Opened account in fine style over 6f here in June and far from disgraced when fifth of 14 in the Norfolk Stakes since. Another fair fourth in the July Stakes but no reason to think he's much better than that unless improving for 7f. Ran okay in Group 2s the last twice but there are doubts about him over an extra furlong.
9th	7 9th (7) (14/1 +30%) Spanish Phoenix	14 14/1(+30%)	(7) Spanish Phoenix 14/1, Leicester maiden winner who was doing all his best work at the finish when eighth of 20 in Coventry Stakes at Royal Ascot. Promises to stay 7f but weakened out of, albeit in the face of a stiff task in the Superlative Stakes. Twice beaten by Haatem and needs to find a surge of improvement from somewhere.

LTO Selection:

HAATEM has progressed well since catching the eye here on his racecourse debut in May. Fifth in the Coventry at Royal Ascot, he filled the runner-up spot in the Superlative at Newmarket behind City Of Troy, when seeing out this distance well, and, without a rival of that calibre in this line-up, Richard Hannon's colt has the ideal opportunity to get back to winning ways. Iberian made a bright start to his career at Newbury and should go well along with Chesham third Golden Mind.

On the face of it, IBERIAN has quite a bit to find graduating from novice company, but he created a very favourable impression when winning at Newbury and, given his pedigree, there should be lots more to come. Haatem had little chance with a top prospect in the Superlative Stakes but he beat the rest easily enough and he's the form pick, with Soldier's Gold another to consider up in trip.

Iberian is promising and Haatem is solid, but GOLDEN MIND is better than the bare form of his Chesham third.

2	14 2nd (14) (5/1 +23%) Baileys Khelstar	5 5/1(+23%)	(14) Baileys Khelstar 5/1, Winner at Beverley in July. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (1½m, soft, 9/1) 10 days ago.

6th	10 6th (10) (8/1 +0%) Buxted Reel	8 8/1(+0%)	(10) Buxted Reel 8/1, Sole success to date came on AW but he does arrive having run his best race of the campaign when 7 lengths third of 7 in handicap at Chester (2mf) 22 days ago. Drop in class rates a plus and he's one to consider back down in trip. Best effort of the year last time and should be happier back down from 2m.

9th	13 9th (13) (100/1 -203%) Out Rule	100 100/1(-203%)	(13) Out Rule 100/1, Fair form at best in novice company, although he looked a hard ride on Windsor turf debut last time. Has first start in handicap company here. Goes beyond 1m2f for the first time on his handicap debut; the stiffer test needs to help.
10th	5 10th (5) (5.5/1 +0%) Spit Spot	5.5 5.5/1(+0%)	(5) Spit Spot 5.5/1, Latest win at Chelmsford in May. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (11/1) at Haydock (11.5f, good to firm) 26 days ago. Back up in trip. Showed she can do it on turf last time; return to further ought to suit off the same mark.
11th	2 11th (2) (150/1 -88%) Mhajim	150 150/1(-88%)	(2) Mhajim 150/1, Raced only on AW. Fairly useful for the Gosden stable in early 2022 but ended his time with stable on a low note and tailed off on his return for a new yard in June. Made a poor debut for his new trainer, having been gelded, seven weeks ago.
12th	6 12th (6) (28/1 -75%) September Power	28 28/1(-75%)	(6) September Power 28/1, Latest win at Southwell in February. Off since finishing a well-held sixth there in March. Possibly best watched unless the betting vibes are strong. Returns from absence off 2lb higher than for her latest Tapeta win; has gone in fresh.
13th	1 13th (1) (11/1 -10%) True Courage	11 11/1(-10%)	(1) True Courage 11/1, C&D winner. 9/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (11.5f, firm) 30 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Up in trip. Visor back on. Enters calculations. Visor sported for all five wins returns; is a previous C&D winner, so there are positives.

LTO Selection:

SPIT SPOT recorded a staying-on fourth over an extended 1m3f at Haydock last month and shaped as though she can improve stepping up in trip, especially given she was disputing third inside the final furlong on that occasion. Others of interest include Sharp Distinction, who finished a fairly distant third over an extended 2m at York most recently, and the fellow distance-dropping Mukha Magic.

BUXTED REEL has dropped to 3 lb lower than when successful last August and there was enough in a recent run at Chester to think he might be ready to strike again. Baileys Khelstar, Sharp Distinction and Spit Spot are others to consider in an open affair.

Plenty to consider, headed by TRUE COURAGE, who ought to get this run to suit. Last year's winner Myboymax should go well too.

2	1 2nd (1) (1.25/1 +17%) Band Of Joy	1.25 1.25/1(+17%)	(1) Band Of Joy 1.25/1, Windsor maiden winner who defied a penalty at Lingfield a fortnight ago. 5 lb apprentice takes over and bold hat-trick bid on the cards. Bids for a hat-trick; more to do under double penalty but more progress may be forthcoming.
3	3 3rd (3) (1.5/1 +40%) Petra Celera	1.5 1.5/1(+40%)	(3) Petra Celera 1.5/1, Didn't need to improve to win 12-runner maiden at Catterick (6f, good) 6 days ago. 7 lb apprentice on and she's likely to give it another good go. Narrowly off the mark on her fourth start at Catterick last time; return to 5f not ideal.
4	11 4th (11) (50/1 -79%) She'sashambles	50 50/1(-79%)	(11) She'sashambles 50/1, Foaled April 15. €5,000 yearling, Profitable filly. Half-sister to 2 winners, including 10.7f winner Happaugue. This looks a stiff task on debut and best watched unless market suggests otherwise.
5th	9 5th (9) (50/1 +24%) Musical Diva	50 50/1(+24%)	(9) Musical Diva 50/1, Eleventh of 12 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good to firm, 25/1) on debut 20 days ago. Beat one home on her Catterick debut last month; a good deal more is needed.
6th	6 6th (6) (66/1 -164%) Bobina	66 66/1(-164%)	(6) Bobina 66/1, Foaled March 2. 1,200 gns yearling, Bobby's Kitten filly. Dam, 1¼m winner, half-sister to US Grade 2 9f winner Dicey Mo Chara. Stable has few winning newcomers and this looks a stiff task in any case.
7th	10 7th (10) (66/1 +0%) Red Iris	66 66/1(+0%)	(10) Red Iris 66/1, 50/1, eighth of 10 in novice event at this C&D (good to soft) on debut 14 days ago. Eighth on her debut over C&D a fortnight ago; a great deal more will be required.
8th	7 8th (7) (4.5/1 +68%) Hyrcanian	4.5 4.5/1(+68%)	(7) Hyrcanian 4.5/1, Very green early but looked to be getting the hang of it when 6¼ lengths fourth of 12 to Petra Celera in maiden at Catterick (6f, good, 10/1) on debut 6 days ago. Open to progress. Over 6l behind Petra Celera on her Catterick debut; should get closer on 7lb better terms.
9th	5 9th (5) (22/1 -120%) Winged Messenger	22 22/1(-120%)	(5) Winged Messenger 22/1, Foaled April 30. 1,600 gns yearling, Postponed gelding. Dam 5f winner (including at 2 yrs). Fair pedigree but already gelded and faces a stiff task on debut.
10th	4 10th (4) (25/1 +24%) Obligatory	25 25/1(+24%)	(4) Obligatory 25/1, Foaled March 31. €13,000 yearling, Dandy Man colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including winner up to 1¼m Poetic Force and 7f/1m winner Anglo Saxson. Dam winner up to 1m (2-y-o 7f winner). Showed a little ability amidst obvious greenness starting out at Catterick. Finished behind a couple of today's rivals on his Catterick debut; needs more time.

LTO Selection:

BAND OF JOY has scored in two from three career starts and she looks the one to beat here. Connor Planas negates most of her 7lb penalty for her latest success with his 5lb claim and she is fancied to get the better of Indication Spirit, who was a game winner at Musselburgh last month. Petra Celera is another last-time-out winner to bear in mind, albeit dropping in distance.

The trio of previous winners are partnered by apprentice riders with BAND OF JOY marginally preferred in favour of Petra Celera and Indication Spirit.

Two of these are bidding for a hat-trick, but the form shown by BAND OF JOY looks superior to that of Indication Spirit.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (0.91/1 +17%) Kinross	0.91 0.91/1(+17%)	(4) Kinross 0.91/1, Very smart operator over 6f/7f who won this in 2021 and was a close second last year. His recent 1½ lengths third to Shaquille in the July Cup suggests he's every bit as good as ever at the age of 6 and he should prove hard to beat. Won this race in 2021 and close second last year; third in July Cup; leading contender.
2	8 2nd (8) (2.5/1 +9%) Isaac Shelby	2.5 2.5/1(+9%)	(8) Isaac Shelby 2.5/1, All-the-way winner of the Greenham over this trip on his Newbury reappearance and only just edged out in the French 2000 Guineas next time. A bit too free for his own good when fourth in the St James's Palace at Royal Ascot and the drop back to 7f could suit. Smart colt; has won two notable 7f prizes; solid efforts at Group 1 level the last twice.
3	9 3rd (9) (28/1 -100%) Marbaan	28 28/1(-100%)	(9) Marbaan 28/1, Enjoyed his finest hour when winning the Group 2 Vintage over C&D at last year's Glorious meeting. His near miss in a 6f Salisbury listed event last month shows he has trained on but he was well beaten in the Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot since. Returns to 7f for the first time this year. Won the Vintage Stakes on this card last year; possibilities back over this C&D.
4	6 4th (6) (12/1 +45%) Holguin	12 12/1(+45%)	(6) Holguin 12/1, Career best when winning 10-runner listed race at Chester (7f, heavy) 17 days ago but he'll need another if he's to play a leading role in this higher grade. Listed winner at Chester last time; consistent and steadily progressive; one to consider.
5th	7 5th (7) (14/1 +13%) Indestructible	14 14/1(+13%)	(7) Indestructible 14/1, Useful 2-y-o for Michael O'Callaghan at 2. Took his form up another notch when making a successful reappearance for this yard in Craven at Newmarket. Has found life tough at Group 1 level since (beaten 6¾ lengths when fourth in 7f French Group 1 latest) and this isn't much easier. Has a progressive record when racing below the top level; interesting back down in grade.
6th	2 6th (2) (7.5/1 +6%) Audience	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(2) Audience 7.5/1, Much improved since being gelded and fitted with a hood, reappearing to win a 7f Newmarket Group 3 last month by 2 lengths from the reopposing Jumby. Unlikely to be far away if in similar form. 2-2 since being gelded and fitted with hood; made all in the Criterion last time.

LTO Selection:

KINROSS looks solid in here given he finished a neck second in the race 12 months ago and won it the year before that. A dual Group 1 winner last year and last seen finishing a close-up third in the July Cup at Newmarket, Ralph Beckett's charge ticks plenty of boxes and is expected to prove tough to beat. Isaac Shelby is another dropping down from Group 1 company, though, and he can put up a good fight getting 6lb from the selection following his fourth to Paddington in the St James's Palace Stakes. Criterion Stakes winner Audience adds further spice to the race.

KINROSS escapes a penalty for his Group 1 wins last time and should be a tough nut to crack under Frankie Dettori. Greenham-winner Isaac Shelby might be helped by the return to 7f and is second choice ahead of Audience, who had Pogo behind him when landing a Newmarket Group 3 last month.

Kinross holds strong claims but there are plausible alternatives at bigger odds, most notably ISAAC SHELBY and Indestructible.

Looks competitive on form. 2lb below his last successful mark and there's no obvious reason he won't go well.
1	10 1st (10) (4.5/1 +44%) Afloat	4.5 4.5/1(+44%)	(10) Afloat 4.5/1, Last of 3 in handicap at Salisbury (12f, good to firm, 4/1) 44 days ago. Expensive to follow since handicapping and didn't look the easiest last time; risky now.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 +61%) Flower Of Thunder	3.5 3.5/1(+61%)	(1) Flower Of Thunder 3.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. Visored for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap at Leicester (10f, good to firm, 16/1) 24 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Offered more in a first-time visor (retained) recently; holds fair claims on that down 2lb.
3	15 3rd (15) (125/1 -213%) College Wizard	125 125/1(-213%)	(15) College Wizard 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 8 in maiden at this course (7f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Has offered very little in three 7f-1m runs, starting huge prices each time.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 +29%) Star For A Day	10 10/1(+29%)	(8) Star For A Day 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 22/1, good third of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 14 days ago. First signs of life on soft ground latest but needs another good step forward to take this.
5th	9 5th (9) (5.5/1 -57%) Corporate Raider	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(9) Corporate Raider 5.5/1, C&D winner. Winner here in June. 8/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good) 26 days ago, no match for winner. Fitting of blinkers and switch to front-running has helped over C&D lately; this tougher.
6th	6 6th (6) (8/1 +11%) Enzos Angel	8 8/1(+11%)	(6) Enzos Angel 8/1, 18/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 14 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Regressive maiden; would want to see some support before considering him.
7th	2 7th (2) (22/1 +12%) Alpha King	22 22/1(+12%)	(2) Alpha King 22/1, Irresolute performer. Course winner. Tenth of 11 in novice hurdle at Worcester (16f, good, 50/1) 27 days ago. Modest on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Plenty in his favour when well backed on comeback here in May, but bombed; poor since too.
8th	4 8th (4) (2.75/1 +8%) Fillyfudge	2.75 2.75/1(+8%)	(4) Fillyfudge 2.75/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D (good, 9/4) 20 days ago, kept up to work. Should go well again. Goes well here; 5lb rise may make life tougher but she could well be up to it.
9th	13 9th (13) (40/1 +39%) Broomy Law	40 40/1(+39%)	(13) Broomy Law 40/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 100/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 7 days ago. Longstanding maiden who's regressed sharply in recent times.
10th	3 10th (3) (11/1 +0%) Alice Kitty	11 11/1(+0%)	(3) Alice Kitty 11/1, Latest win at Chelmsford City in May. Creditable third of 7 in handicap at this C&D (good, 16/1) 26 days ago. Generally consistent since coming over from Ireland but is some way down the pecking order.

LTO Selection:

FILLYFUDGE recorded a comfortable success over course and distance 20 days ago, appearing to relish the return to further, and the lightly-raced four-year-old can continue her progression from this 5lb raised mark. Mc'ted returned to form when second over this trip at Pontefract last time and must be considered as a previous track-and-trip winner, while others to note include Corporate Raider and Flower Of Thunder.

FILLYFUDGE produced a career best when off the mark over C&D 3 weeks ago and looks the way to go again, Mc'ted is next best ahead of Corporate Raider.

Three-time late-summer C&D winner FLOWER OF THUNDER (nap) showed more latest and is preferred to recent C&D winner Fillyfudge.

Essentially yet to fire this season and first-time visor needs to have positive effect here. On a dangerous mark; moody effort without headgear latest; now tried in a visor.
2	1 2nd (1) (10/1 -18%) King Of Tonga	10 10/1(-18%)	(1) King Of Tonga 10/1, Enjoyed a highly-productive 2022, gaining fourth success at Chester (5.5f) in August. Mixed bag in handful of starts so far this term but more encouraging signs from easing mark at Catterick in June and since undergone wind surgery. Interesting in refitted blinkers. Not recaptured his 2022 highs this year but a wind op could help and blinkers return now.
3	3 3rd (3) (4.5/1 -29%) Impressor	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(3) Impressor 4.5/1, Thriving sprinter who has proved well suited by application of cheekpieces of late, landing handicaps at Hamilton/over C&D in recent weeks. Well worth a look under a penalty in this sort of form. Three wins this year, latterly over C&D last week; looks well in under penalty; contender.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 +0%) The Dunkirk Lads	8 8/1(+0%)	(2) The Dunkirk Lads 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in April. 11/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 25 days ago, weakening final 1f. That was his first start for 7 weeks and he may well be sharper now. Two good C&D runs on good to soft in the spring; below par latest; can bounce back.
5th	5 5th (5) (18/1 -50%) Jojo Rabbit	18 18/1(-50%)	(5) Jojo Rabbit 18/1, Seventh of 8 in handicap at Ayr (5f, firm, 14/1) 38 days ago, struggling when hanging left over 1f out. Cheekpieces reached for now but others make greater appeal despite easing mark. Should be well treated but it's been tough going so far this year; cheekpieces now added.
6th	9 6th (9) (3/1 +57%) Gustav Graves	3 3/1(+57%)	(9) Gustav Graves 3/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good, 7/2) 3 days ago, fading entering final 1f. Pick of his early-season form gives him claims if putting it all together. Conditions no issue and although he's not prolific, he shouldn't be too far away.
7th	6 7th (6) (4.5/1 +0%) Hey Mr	4.5 4.5/1(+0%)	(6) Hey Mr 4.5/1, Latest win at Nottingham in June. Very good second of 11 in handicap back at that venue (5f, soft, 6/1) 14 days ago, suited by way race developed. Winner that day has scored again since and he's of interest once more from 2 lb higher mark. Comes here in top form and still has some handicapping scope; one to consider.
8th	7 8th (7) (10/1 +50%) Sherdil	10 10/1(+50%)	(7) Sherdil 10/1, Dual C&D winner last term. 22/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) 19 days ago, very slowly away and always behind. Has now fallen 1 lb below last winning mark but yard look to hold stronger claims with Hey Mr. Two C&D wins last summer and nicely treated on 2022 best; yet to get going this year.
9th	8 9th (8) (12/1 -118%) Bella Kopella	12 12/1(-118%)	(8) Bella Kopella 12/1, Twice a winner on AW and confirmed more positive signs here when opening her account on turf in a C&D handicap 24 days ago, leading inside final 1f and keeping on. Up 5 lb now but she's a player once more taking on her elders for the first time. Unexposed as a sprinter; latest C&D win not working out but she's still of some interest.

LTO Selection:

IMPRESSOR has been progressive of late and kept on well to score over C&D last month. He defied a 7lb rise from his penultimate to last success, so a 5lb penalty may not be enough to stop him landing a hat-trick here. Hey Mr was only narrowly denied over this distance at Nottingham most recently and is feared most off 2lb higher, while fellow C&D winner Bella Kopella completes the shortlist, despite a 5lb raised mark for her last success.

This looks wide open and it may pay to take a chance on KING OF TONGA. He showed more encouraging signs from his easing mark at Catterick in June and, with blinkers back on following a wind op, it would come as no surprise to see him go well. Impressor is thriving and feared along with Hey Mr. 3-y-o Bella Kopella who scored herself over C&D last time is another in the mix.

Show Me Show Me and KING OF TONGA carry risks but both are well handicapped and a recent wind op could benefit the selection.

That venue has brought out the best in him again this year, fourth in the Yorkshire Cup before resuming winning ways in 1¾m listed race in June. Smart front-runner but record suggests he's vulnerable back at the top level.
2	11 2nd (11) (4.5/1 +25%) Emily Dickinson	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(11) Emily Dickinson 4.5/1, Smart filly. Creditable 4½ lengths fourth of 12 to Courage Mon Ami in Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2½m, good to firm) and successful in 1¾m Curragh Cup since. Moore prefers her to Broome. Likely to go well. Ballydoyle filly; has form figures of 4111 on soft/heavy; respected granted ideal ground.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 +10%) Coltrane	3 3/1(+10%)	(2) Coltrane 3/1, Made a winning reappearance in the Sagaro at Ascot (2m) and better than ever when ¾-length second of 12 to Courage Mon Ami in Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2½m, good to firm) since. Looks sure to give another good account. Close second to Courage Mon Ami when favourite for the Ascot Gold Cup; major contender.
4	4 4th (4) (10/1 -18%) Eldar Eldarov	10 10/1(-18%)	(4) Eldar Eldarov 10/1, Last year's St Leger winner. Ran very well when failing by only a ½ length to concede 5 lb to Giavellotto in the Yorkshire Cup on his return but not at his best when 10 lengths seventh to Courage Mon Ami in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Bounce back is needed. Disappointing in the Gold Cup but generally progressive otherwise; still of interest.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 +22%) Giavellotto	14 14/1(+22%)	(6) Giavellotto 14/1, In receipt of 5 lb when proving ½ length too strong for Eldar Eldarov (Broome back in third) in the Yorkshire Cup at York (1¾m) in May. A bit more will be needed now stepping back up in trip. Won the Yorkshire Cup when last seen; open to further progress; appealing type.
6th	3 6th (3) (2/1 +20%) Courage Mon Ami	2 2/1(+20%)	(3) Courage Mon Ami 2/1, Produced a remarkable performance for one so inexperienced when making it 4-4 in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot (2½m, good to firm) in June by ¾ length from the reopposing Coltrane. Could be capable of even better and can confirm his superiority over Andrew Balding's charge. Gold Cup win took his record to 4-4; improving fast and should have lots more to offer.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 +11%) Broome	16 16/1(+11%)	(1) Broome 16/1, Resumed winning ways in 15-runner Dubai Gold Cup at Meydan (2m) in March. Creditable 1½ lengths third of 6 in Yorkshire Cup at York (1¾m) next time and failed to stay 2½m when well behind some of these in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Moore on stablemate Emily Dickinson. Won the Dubai Gold Cup but subsequent form puts him down the pecking order here.
8th	10 8th (10) (25/1 -14%) Tashkhan	25 25/1(-14%)	(10) Tashkhan 25/1, Winless since 2021 but he's posted solid efforts to make the frame at listed/Group 3 level this term. A place is probably the best he can hope for here. Often performs respectably but he's well exposed; stiff task in this field.
9th	7 9th (7) (11/1 +8%) Lone Eagle	11 11/1(+8%)	(7) Lone Eagle 11/1, Irish Derby runner-up in 2021. His career has been a little disappointing since but he was second in a 1¾m Chester Group 3 for his new yard in May and it's likely that 2½m stretched his stamina in the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot. Should be fine at 2m. Non-stayer (and shaped better than bare result) over 2m4f in Gold Cup; 2-3 at Goodwood.
10th	8 10th (8) (66/1 -32%) Ocean Wind	66 66/1(-32%)	(8) Ocean Wind 66/1, Placed in Group 3 company in spring 2021. Shaped as if retaining plenty of ability when third in 2m Sandown listed race on last month's return from an absence but surely biting off more than he can chew at this level. Signs of retaining ability at Sandown on return from long absence; this is harder.
11th	5 11th (5) (200/1 -100%) Enemy	200 200/1(-100%)	(5) Enemy 200/1, Smart gelding but ran poorly in the Henry II at Sandown when last seen in May and likely to find a few too strong even if back to his very best. Faces a tough task on second Goodwood Cup attempt (down the field last year).

LTO Selection:

COURAGE MON AMI maintained his unbeaten record when taking a massive step forward from a handicap success here to land the Gold Cup. That was only his fourth career start and, with the prospect of more improvement to come, it would be no surprise to see the son of Frankel prove too strong for the opposition. Coltrane gave the selection plenty to think about at Royal Ascot and arrives at the peak of his powers, while any rain will suit the fourth from that contest Emily Dickinson.

COURAGE MON AMI has the potential to be one of the best stayers of recent years after winning the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot on only his fourth career start. He had Coltrane and Emily Dickinson behind in second and fourth on that occasion and can confirm his superiority over that pair and stretch his unbeaten record to 5.

Gold Cup winner COURAGE MON AMI (nap) promises to dominate the staying scene for a long time. Coltrane is feared most.

1	1 1st (1) (3.5/1 +13%) Habanero Star	3.5 3.5/1(+13%)	(1) Habanero Star 3.5/1, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (6/1) at Brighton (9.9f, good) 28 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Doesn't arrive in form but she's on a good mark again and has been found a decent opening.
2	5 2nd (5) (6.5/1 +13%) Calleveryoneuknow	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(5) Calleveryoneuknow 6.5/1, 33/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (10.1f, good) 20 days ago. Back down in trip and not ruled out. Offered a bit more here latest and has hopes down in trip in a weak race.
3	9 3rd (9) (11/1 +31%) Primrose Maid	11 11/1(+31%)	(9) Primrose Maid 11/1, Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good, 12/1) 20 days ago. Needs to step forward. Invariably pulls hard, even with the hood on, and a lot will hinge on how she settles.
4	4 4th (4) (1.5/1 +67%) Shabs	1.5 1.5/1(+67%)	(4) Shabs 1.5/1, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. 5/1, respectable fourth of 10 in minor event at Brighton (8f, good) 21 days ago. Enters calculations. Winless after 23 starts and has been turned over at 4-1 or shorter on 11 occasions; risky.
5th	3 5th (3) (14/1 -17%) Endless Season	14 14/1(-17%)	(3) Endless Season 14/1, Twelfth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good, 14/1) 20 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Ran well enough on first two runs for this yard before a poor one over C&D three weeks ago.
6th	7 6th (7) (20/1 -43%) Mont Vallon	20 20/1(-43%)	(7) Mont Vallon 20/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (8.2f, soft, 20/1) 6 days ago. Visor on 1st time , tongue strap back on with more required. Two poor efforts since his 1m2f Chepstow third; switches from cheekpieces to a visor.
7th	6 7th (6) (16/1 -167%) Bold And Loyal	16 16/1(-167%)	(6) Bold And Loyal 16/1, 8/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Brighton (7f, good) 28 days ago. Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs. Remains a maiden after 24 starts and has blown any number of chances; likes it here though.
8th	2 8th (2) (7/1 -110%) Codswallop	7 7/1(-110%)	(2) Codswallop 7/1, Arrives in good form, third of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 4/1) 13 days ago. Player off an unchanged mark. More on the AW lately for the visor going on; this trip is an absolute minimum though.

LTO Selection:

The fitting of a visor has appeared to help the Adam West-trained CODSWALLOP, who arrives following two decent performances on the all-weather. He's now 8lb lower than his sole success, which came at Nottingham last June, and he wouldn't need much more to regain the winning sequence today. Calleveryoneuknow is relatively unexposed and she merits consideration from 2lb lower than when finishing a fair fourth over C&D last month. Habanero Star might not be far away either.

CODSWALLOP can race off the same mark as when a good recent Wolverhampton third so is taken to open his account for 2023. In-form maiden Shabs and C&D scorer Habanero Star both bring solid credentials to the table and can chase home Adam West's 4-y-o in that order.

Maybe CALLEVERYONEUKNOW, who has fewer convictions than most, will be up to the job dropped back in trip. Codswallop is next best.

1	6 1st (6) (4/1 +33%) First Greyed	4 4/1(+33%)	(6) First Greyed 4/1, Fallen below last winning mark and ran best race of the campaign when second in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago, headway 2f out and keeping on. Live player with a repeat. Back to form when second last time; chance on that, but could probably do with rain.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/1 +36%) Mister Sox	7 7/1(+36%)	(9) Mister Sox 7/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fifth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at this course (8.4f, good to firm) 25 days ago, weakening final 1f. Blinkers on 1st time. Been hard work in handicaps since returning in the spring; blinkers on.
3	3 3rd (3) (40/1 -100%) Nefyn Dawn	40 40/1(-100%)	(3) Nefyn Dawn 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 28/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 40 days ago, shaping as if better for the run following 4 months off/on back of wind op. May well be sharper with that under his belt down in trip. Runner-up at Wolverhampton in February, but twice well held since.
4	2 4th (2) (11/1 -29%) Min Till	11 11/1(-29%)	(2) Min Till 11/1, Twice a winner at around 7f during second half of last season. Reappearance run best excused at Doncaster in June and faded out of things tackling soft ground when sixth of 11 in handicap at Chester (7f) 18 days ago. Forecast better ground here rates a likely plus. Twice held since returning from six months off in June; needs more help from handicapper.
5th	4 5th (4) (100/1 -100%) Panama City	100 100/1(-100%)	(4) Panama City 100/1, C&D winner. 100/1, first run since leaving Tim Easterby when last of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, soft) 5 days ago, dropping away quickly. C&D maiden winner last summer, but gone badly the wrong way since; tongue-tie on.
6th	7 6th (7) (40/1 -21%) Sassoon	40 40/1(-21%)	(7) Sassoon 40/1, Ended 2021 with success in a Redcar seller (1m, soft) but disappointing confined to just 2 starts last term. Returns from 9 months off with plenty to prove. Inconsistent for this stable and returns from another 291 days off with lots to prove.
7th	5 7th (5) (4/1 +20%) Powdering	4 4/1(+20%)	(5) Powdering 4/1, Showed improved form to make a winning return/handicap debut at Hamilton (8.3f) in June. Not in quite the same form when third in 6-runner handicap here (8.4f) 24 days ago but eases in class now and drop to 7f may help. Winning reappearance in June and third in a better race than this last time; respected.
8th	10 8th (10) (5/1 +0%) Clotherholme	5 5/1(+0%)	(10) Clotherholme 5/1, Course winner. Good third of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 52 days ago, keeping on well. Hood back on. Can give a good account again. Not the most prolific (3-35), but running well lately and holds solid each-way claims.
9th	8 9th (8) (2.5/1 -11%) Purple Martini	2.5 2.5/1(-11%)	(8) Purple Martini 2.5/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Musselburgh in May. Creditable third of 11 in handicap (15/2) at Chester (7f, soft) 18 days ago, making eye-catching late headway. Expected to be bang there. Dual winner in the spring and latest Chester third has been boosted since; high on list.
10th	11 10th (11) (22/1 -38%) Girl From Italy	22 22/1(-38%)	(11) Girl From Italy 22/1, Maiden who ran best race to date when runner-up in a C&D handicap in June. Not managed to replicate that in 2 starts since though, fourth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (6.9f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Operates from career-low mark now at least. 0-7, but came closest to winning over C&D in June; may not want rain.

LTO Selection:

Although POWDERING finished five lengths back in third over an extended mile at this track last month, she can take advantage of a a drop back in trip. She remains 2lb above her last winning mark, but still gets the vote from First Greyed, who kept on well for second over C&D most recently. Purple Martini and Clotherholme are others to consider.

Already twice a winner this season, PURPLE MARTINI quickly returned to form and was noted doing good late work when third at Chester 18 days ago. Operating from a 1 lb lower mark, she earns the vote to come out on top, with First Greyed and Powdering heading up the dangers. Girl From Italy is another to note having run her best race to date over this C&D.

Preference is for PURPLE MARTINI (nap) who won twice in the spring and whose latest third at Chester has been franked by the first two.

1	7 1st (7) (10/1 +60%) Choisya	10 10/1(+60%)	(7) Choisya 10/1, AW novice winner in January who has steadily gone the right way since, opening her account in handicaps at Haydock (1m) in June. Raced closer to the pace than ideal in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and she's not out of things on balance. Form dipped in the Sandringham; slow ground would be an unknown.
2	10 2nd (10) (5/1 +38%) Novus	5 5/1(+38%)	(10) Novus 5/1, Progressive filly who doubled career tally over 7f here in May and has emerged with plenty of credit in defeat both starts since, short of room late on but keeping on for second at Sandown (7f) 24 days ago. Present mark looks workable and she's respected. Would be particularly interesting granted soft ground (2-2 on that surface).
3	12 3rd (12) (5/1 +9%) Rowayeh	5 5/1(+9%)	(12) Rowayeh 5/1, Dubawi filly who opened her account in a Beverley maiden (8.5f) in May and duly progressed again to land 6-runner Sandown handicap (1m) a month later. Beat a subsequent listed winner then and she's respected from 5 lb higher for all her draw in 18 makes things tricky. Nicely bred filly who has won her last two races; progressing well and has strong claims.
4	11 4th (11) (14/1 +0%) Royal Dress	14 14/1(+0%)	(11) Royal Dress 14/1, Largely campaigned as a sprinter but she found some improvement for the step up to 7f when running out a comfortable winner at Haydock 10 days ago, by 3 lengths from Lady Mojito. This understandably tougher but she's a likeable type and fancied to go well again. Suited by step up to 7f last time; interesting upped further in distance.
5th	16 5th (16) (12/1 +52%) She's Hot	12 12/1(+52%)	(16) She's Hot 12/1, Dual winner as a juvenile who bettered first 2 starts of this campaign when second to subsequent Royal Ascot scorer Burdett Road in handicap at Newbury (10f) 55 days ago. Undergone wind surgery since and she's one to note from handy draw in first-time cheekpieces. Latest effort came behind a subsequent Royal Ascot winner; each-way hopes.
6th	5 6th (5) (10/1 +0%) Back See Daa	10 10/1(+0%)	(5) Back See Daa 10/1, Steadily progressive filly who ran out a ready winner of a Newbury novice (1m) in June. Similar form when midfield in listed Coral Distaff at Sandown subsequently but the assessor has taken no chances with her opening mark. Ties in with Bridestones on Sandown Listed running; may do better still.
7th	14 7th (14) (66/1 +0%) Youngest	66 66/1(+0%)	(14) Youngest 66/1, Won a Leicester novice (7f) on debut last summer but has failed to match that level in trio of starts since, looking a hard ride when well-beaten in Sandringham Handicap at Royal Ascot in June. Hood reached for now. Has totally failed to build on debut win; hood needs to make a difference.
8th	18 8th (18) (14/1 +13%) Rajindri	14 14/1(+13%)	(18) Rajindri 14/1, Fairly useful filly who finished placed first 4 starts and off the mark in workmanlike fashion in 8-runner Yarmouth maiden (7f) 2 weeks ago. Opening mark looks a workable one and no surprise to see her make an impact. Consistent filly whose form figures read 23221; solid claims on handicap debut.
9th	1 9th (1) (33/1 -65%) Belhaven	33 33/1(-65%)	(1) Belhaven 33/1, Won 3 times in 2022 and left her reappearance effort well behind to go in again at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) in May. Not beaten at all far in Kensington Palace at the Royal Meeting on penultimate start and likely did too much up with the pace back at that venue 17 days ago. Form dipped on latest outing and current mark leaves her in a tough spot.
10th	19 10th (19) (16/1 +20%) Lady Mojito	16 16/1(+20%)	(19) Lady Mojito 16/1, Built on debut promise to land a Redcar novice (7f) back in October. Bettered first 2 starts of the present campaign when second behind Royal Dress in handicap at Haydock (7f, soft) 10 days ago and she's an each-way player from a handy draw. No match for Royal Dress last time; this extra furlong needs to help.
11th	6 11th (6) (4/1 +27%) Stormy Sea	4 4/1(+27%)	(6) Stormy Sea 4/1, Promise when second on debut at Kempton in November and, following wind op, showed improved form to run out a ready winner on return at Haydock (1m) in April. Rather underwhelming when sixth of 8 at Listed level a month later but she remains with potential moving into handicaps. Possibilities. Impressive on reappearance; disappointing last time but likely still has more to offer.
12th	15 12th (15) (16/1 +11%) Zouzanna	16 16/1(+11%)	(15) Zouzanna 16/1, Promise when runner-up in pair of back-end novice events last term and recorded smooth success on return at Haydock (1m) in May. Handicap debut effort at Yarmouth 32 days ago was a shade disappointing but it remains early days with her. Still unexposed but latest effort doesn't augur well for her prospects in this field.
13th	3 13th (3) (14/1 -40%) Espressoo	14 14/1(-40%)	(3) Espressoo 14/1, Matched pick of her 3-y-o form to make winning reappearance at Ayr (7.2f) in May and produced her best effort yet when second in Pontefract listed event 3 weeks ago, aided by a good front-running ride. Back up in the weights now but not discounted from handy draw. Good second in Pontefract Listed event last time; possibilities back in a handicap.
14th	9 14th (9) (14/1 -40%) Good Gracious	14 14/1(-40%)	(9) Good Gracious 14/1, 7f nursery winner at 2 yrs who stepped up markedly on first 2 starts this term when registering a comfortable success in first-time blinkers at Ascot (1m) last month. Hit with an 8 lb hike for that and another with a less-than-ideal draw to overcome. Took well to blinkers at Ascot last month; shortlisted in the retained headgear.
15th	13 15th (13) (25/1 -25%) Floating Spirit	25 25/1(-25%)	(13) Floating Spirit 25/1, Kempton novice winner on debut in January and defied a penalty in good style at Lingfield (1m) a month later. Seemed unsuited by soft ground when well held in Newmarket listed event (10f) in May and she remains the type to do better back on better ground. Cheekpieces on for handicap debut. Two AW wins preceded a heavy defeat on turf debut; cheekpieces now fitted.
16th	20 16th (20) (33/1 -18%) Hi Clare	33 33/1(-18%)	(20) Hi Clare 33/1, Built on reappearance run under well-judged ride to score at Pontefract (1m) 3 starts back and found only one on a roll too good at Bath next start. Not so well served by switch to patient tactics back at first-named venue latest but this more demanding in any case up in class. Disappointing on latest Class 5 run; something to prove upped two grades.
17th	17 17th (17) (22/1 -38%) Peace Of Mine	22 22/1(-38%)	(17) Peace Of Mine 22/1, Resumed progress to make a winning return at Nottingham 910.2f, heavy) in April and left a lesser display at Ascot behind when close-up fourth of 5 in handicap at Windsor (1m) 31 days ago. Eased 1 lb ahead of this but more needed. Free-going front-runner who looks vulnerable on first attempt in a big field.
18th	2 18th (2) (33/1 +0%) System	33 33/1(+0%)	(2) System 33/1, Listed scorer at 2 yrs who capitalised on an easing mark when successful at Doncaster (1m) in August of last year. However, absent since finishing last of 14 in Sky Bet Mile at York later that month and this rates a tough enough ask on return. Fifth in this race last year; lacks recent match practice (absent for 347 days).

LTO Selection:

In a wide-open heat, only a tentative vote can go to GOOD GRACIOUS. The daughter of Kingman took a significant step forward when fitted with first-time blinkers, winning in good style at Ascot 18 days ago, and a subsequent 8lb rise might not halt further progress. The hat-trick seeking Rowayeh appeals as a likely player from 5lb higher than her handicap debut success at Sandown, while Bridestones and Royal Dress can also figure. Back See Daa and Novus are just two others to consider.

STORMY SEA proved a little disappointing in a York listed race when last seen in May but the manner of her Haydock victory previously is well worth remembering and, from a handy draw, she could well be up to bouncing back for the yard that took this race 12 months ago. The upwardly mobile Rowayeh rates a big threat in pursuit of the hat-trick for all her draw in 18 makes things tricky. Rajindri, Royal Dress and Novus complete the shortlist.

The vote goes to RAJINDRI, with Rowayeh second choice. Plenty of the others also have possibilities in a wide-open handicap.

1	6 1st (6) (12/1 +14%) Arctic Fly	12 12/1(+14%)	(6) Arctic Fly 12/1, Fair bumper winner who needed only to match that form to score emphatically on her Punchestown hurdling bow (2m) 51 days ago. Open to improvement. Cosy winner of a Punchestown maiden hurdle but will have to find lots of improvement.
2	3 2nd (3) (16/1 +20%) Sherodan	16 16/1(+20%)	(3) Sherodan 16/1, Fairly useful in bumpers and ran to a similar level when second of 15 in maiden (7/2) at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good) on hurdles bow 63 days ago, clear of rest. Likely to improve. Second on hurdles debut at Ballinrobe after an absence; should have improved but tough ask.
3	7 3rd (7) (16/1 +20%) Calico	16 16/1(+20%)	(7) Calico 16/1, Proved better than ever when winning 8-runner novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (17f, good) 7 days ago, driven clear. This requires another jolt of improvement. Three-time hurdle winner; needs another chunk of improvement to take this.
4	8 4th (8) (25/1 -25%) Castra Vetera	25 25/1(-25%)	(8) Castra Vetera 25/1, Capitalised on the marked drop in grade after 3 months off when winning 16-runner maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, soft, 16/5) 18 days ago. This demands more. Got off the mark in this sphere at Kilbeggan recently; needs to step up on that form.
5th	9 5th (9) (16/1 -45%) Enfranchise	16 16/1(-45%)	(9) Enfranchise 16/1, Useful on the Flat and seemed to run her best race over hurdles when seventh of 13 in Grade 3 event (200/1) at Tipperary (16f, good) 26 days ago. Smart Flat mare; has to find plenty more to make hurdles breakthrough in this company.
6th	1 6th (1) (0.67/1 +26%) Absurde	0.67 0.67/1(+26%)	(1) Absurde 0.67/1, Smart performer on Flat, doing well under circumstances when second of 16 to Vauban in Copper Horse Handicap at Royal Ascot in June, left with lot to do. Made a successful hurdling debut at KIlbeggan in May and is sure to improve. Smart Flat horse was a cosy Killarney maiden hurdle winner; Mullins first-string.
7th	5 7th (5) (5/1 +17%) Williamstowndancer	5 5/1(+17%)	(5) Williamstowndancer 5/1, Improved a little to make it 2 from 2 over hurdles in 8-runner minor event at Roscommon (15.5f, good to soft) 22 days ago, driven out. Open to further progress. Smart bumper mare has won both hurdle starts; needs a fair bit more in this company.
8th	4 8th (4) (5.5/1 -10%) Space Tourist	5.5 5.5/1(-10%)	(4) Space Tourist 5.5/1, Made the most of a good opportunity on her Limerick hurdling debut and showed improved form when following up with ease in 5-runner minor event at Kilbeggan (18.3f, good, 6/4) 43 days ago, pushed out. Merits consideration. Ran away with a Kilbeggan mares' novice hurdle last time; jumps to her left but a player.
9th	2 9th (2) (250/1 -25%) Arctic Saint	250 250/1(-25%)	(2) Arctic Saint 250/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Last of 9 in novice hurdle at Warwick (19f, good to soft, 9/1) 96 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Kim Bailey. Very hard to make a case for. Just a glimpse of ability in three starts for Kim Bailey in UK and is out of his depth.

LTO Selection:

An embarrassment of riches for Willie Mullins, saddling no less than four strong contenders in this quality affair. Paul Townend will be aboard French import Absurde, who won on his hurdling debut at Killarney before finishing second at Royal Ascot. He was behind a stable companion there and might have to settle for a similar faith now, with SPACE TOURIST the selection. Three from four since joining Mullins, she has impressed in recent starts and bids to complete a hat-trick, with Rachael Blackmore booked for the ride. Williamstowndancer and Arctic Fly are the other Closutton representatives, with the former also aiming for her third win in-a-row. Enfranchise was a fine seventh in Grade 3 company at Tipperary earlier this month and while yet to win over flights, she should give a good account of herself. Calico and Castra Vetera also warrant respect.

Smart Flat performer ABSURDE shaped well behind his thrown-in stablemate Vauban at Royal Ascot in June and is very much of interest now returned to hurdles. He can make it 2 from 2 in this sphere, with Williamstowndancer and Space Tourist fancied to fill the places and bring up 1-2-3 for Willie Mullins.

ABSURDE(nap) is a classy Flat type who won well on hurdling debut at Killarney and is the selected of Willie Mullins' four

1	1 1st (1) (1.5/1 +45%) Premiership	1.5 1.5/1(+45%)	(1) Premiership 1.5/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this year. Eighth of 11 in handicap (9/4) at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 63 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Tracy Waggott and needs to bounce back. Change of yard and 2-month break could help; interesting to see how he goes in the market.

3	8 3rd (8) (3.5/1 +13%) Stintino Sunset	3.5 3.5/1(+13%)	(8) Stintino Sunset 3.5/1, 17/2, good 1½ lengths second of 15 to Twilight Jazz in handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 12 days ago, running on. Hood on 1st time. Merits consideration. Maiden who's tended to steer clear of fast turf; back to form behind Twilight Jazz latest.
4	4 4th (4) (3.5/1 +46%) Imprint	3.5 3.5/1(+46%)	(4) Imprint 3.5/1, Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good, 9/1) 20 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and not discounted in his bid for a maiden success. Not without hope; player if the switch from cheekpieces to blinkers ekes out a bit more.
5th	6 5th (6) (5.5/1 -120%) Twilight Jazz	5.5 5.5/1(-120%)	(6) Twilight Jazz 5.5/1, 7/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 12 days ago by 1½ lengths from Stintino Sunset, making all. Up 4 lb but still holds leading claims. Cheekpieces have helped; has a decent chance of following up off 4lb higher.
6th	7 6th (7) (40/1 -60%) Teekana	40 40/1(-60%)	(7) Teekana 40/1, 66/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW) 31 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time with more needed from 1 lb out of the handicap. Maiden who missed a lot of last year and has regressed; doesn't make obvious appeal.
7th	2 7th (2) (20/1 -82%) Compere	20 20/1(-82%)	(2) Compere 20/1, 22/1, sixth of 10 in handicap at Bath (8f, good) 13 days ago. Blinkers back on with more required. Regressive, ex-Irish maiden who goes back to blinkers and isn't obviously fancied.

LTO Selection:

Twilight Jazz (winner) and Stintino Sunset (second) are closely matched based on their encounter at Leicester 12 days ago and are likely to be heavily involved. The first-named had a little in hand that day and appeals most from that duo. However, he has an additional furlong and another 4lb to shoulder today, so may be worth taking on with the well-handicapped COMPERE, whose proven stamina, combined with a competitive rating, earns him the vote in a weak race.

TWILIGHT JAZZ comes here on the up and a 4 lb rise for her recent all-the-way Leicester success doesn't look sufficient to prevent her from following up. Stintino Sunset chased home Mick Appleby's filly that day and again looks next best ahead of in-form maiden Imprint.

Up 4lb for her recent win, TWILIGHT JAZZ can confirm placings with Stintino Sunset. Available Angel is a player too.

Headgear on and still early days in this sphere. Could go well if cutting out the mistakes and with cheekpieces added.
3	11 3rd (11) (6/1 -50%) King Of Quinta	6 6/1(-50%)	(11) King Of Quinta 6/1, Minor promise in bumpers/over hurdles and fared much better than previously in this sphere when second of 7 in handicap chase at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) 29 days ago, no match for winner. Not taken lightly. 0-9 but only his third run over fences when runner-up at Southwell (2m, good).
4	2 4th (2) (7.5/1 -88%) Heros De Moutiers	7.5 7.5/1(-88%)	(2) Heros De Moutiers 7.5/1, Winning pointer who bettered modest hurdles form at the first attempt over fences when runner-up to a subsequent winner at Market Rasen on return last month. Open to further improvement and big shout off similar mark. Returned from 140 days off to finish second on his chase debut at Market Rasen.
5th	1 5th (1) (80/1 -60%) Full Of Light	80 80/1(-60%)	(1) Full Of Light 80/1, Bumper winner who displayed fair form when adding pair of hurdle victories (at around 20f) to his tally during 2021/22. Has become disappointing however, again finishing well held back over fences last 2 starts. Since sold from Nicky Henderson £6,500 in June. Bumper/hurdle winner for Nicky Henderson but offered little in four chase runs.
6th	3 6th (3) (6/1 +67%) Tamaris	6 6/1(+67%)	(3) Tamaris 6/1, Fair maiden over hurdles, again running creditably when third in 12-runner Fontwell handicap. Not an obvious type to make a better chaser but wasn't disgraced on debut in this sphere when fifth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (16f, good) in February. His tendency to race too freely was again evident when well held on chase debut.
7th	4 7th (4) (8.5/1 +29%) Go Fox	8.5 8.5/1(+29%)	(4) Go Fox 8.5/1, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark when successful at Fakenham in June and followed up at Stratford (17f) 16 days later. Subsequent efforts suggest handicapper now has his measure again, however. Running well, for all that he was a little below par last week; needs rain to stay away.
8th	8 8th (8) (18/1 +10%) Glan Y Gors	18 18/1(+10%)	(8) Glan Y Gors 18/1, Easily best effort this season when good second of 11 in handicap chase at Cartmel but quickly back in the doldrums there since. Hard to predict these days and never jumped well before pulling up at Cartmel.
5	5 \|U\| (5) (4.5/1 +25%) Graffiti	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(5) Graffiti 4.5/1, Off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt in a 7-runner Fontwell juvenile last summer. Failed to match that in 3 subsequent outings, however, Chase debut. Fifth on his return to hurdling and remains to be seen what he'll make of fences.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (5.5/1 +50%) Mickyh	5.5 5.5/1(+50%)	(12) Mickyh 5.5/1, Winning hurdler. Going well when falling 2 out (looked likely winner) in handicap at Fontwell but let down by jumping again both starts since. Not an obvious chasing type. Dual hurdle winner but produced two weak finishes since taking a heavy fall; chase debut.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (11/1 -22%) Famoso	11 11/1(-22%)	(10) Famoso 11/1, Still a maiden but better effort for this yard when second of 8 in handicap chase at Stratford (17f, good to soft, 17/2) 42 days ago. Needs to build on that now with headgear re-fitted. Maiden but second at Stratford last time and won't be far away with a repeat of that.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (12/1 +40%) Bolberry Down	12 12/1(+40%)	(9) Bolberry Down 12/1, Poor/unreliable maiden hurdler. Makes chase debut. Chase debut but has been in the doldrums since his second over hurdles in April.

LTO Selection:

HEROS DE MOUTIERS made a promising start to his chasing career when filling the runner-up spot over 2m1f at Market Rasen last month. He has gone up 1lb for that run, which may not be enough to halt his progression here. King Of Quinta took a big step forward when second at Southwell most recently and he can give the selection plenty to think about, while Famoso is another to bear in mind.

HEROS DE MOUTIERS made an encouraging start to his chasing career after 5 months off when runner-up to a subsequent winner at Market Rasen and looks the one to beat off a similar mark. Jet of Dreams is worth another chance to confirm chase debut promise so is feared most ahead of King of Quinta.

This is wide open. JET OF DREAMS dropped out after a mistake last time at Stratford but the ability is there to win off this mark.

1	11 1st (11) (9/1 +10%) Executive Decision	9 9/1(+10%)	(11) Executive Decision 9/1, Juvenile winner for Jessica Harrington (sold 82,000 gns) who has acquitted herself well in a couple of competitive handicaps for new connections this summer, latest when fifth of 16 at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Warrants respect. Two fair runs in hot handicaps for new yard; down in class and taking on her own sex now.
2	6 2nd (6) (5.5/1 +54%) Sophia's Starlight	5.5 5.5/1(+54%)	(6) Sophia's Starlight 5.5/1, Below best at Newmarket latest but has already won 4 times (at up to 7.2f) this season and remains feasibly treated. Front-runner; making good progress but beaten off a lower mark 11 days; conditions fine.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/1 +0%) Funny Story	6 6/1(+0%)	(1) Funny Story 6/1, Below best in listed company latest but had created a good impression when winning Nottingham handicap (6.1f) previously and remains on a workable mark. Ready win at Nottingham in June; drop to 5f not ideal latest; slow ground a worry.
4	8 4th (8) (20/1 -25%) Silent Words	20 20/1(-25%)	(8) Silent Words 20/1, Won sole start as a juvenile and acquitted herself well in first 2 outings this term, making the frame in York listed race on penultimate outing. Disappointed latest, however, and bit to prove stepped up in trip on handicap debut. Came up short in Listed company the last twice; hopes pinned on a sixth furlong helping.
5th	13 5th (13) (18/1 +0%) Granary Queen	18 18/1(+0%)	(13) Granary Queen 18/1, Consistent sort who turned in a rare poor effort at Brighton last time. Better expected here but isn't the easiest to win with these days. Capable off this mark but failed to fire last time and others look safer.
6th	4 6th (4) (10/1 -25%) Candle Of Hope	10 10/1(-25%)	(4) Candle Of Hope 10/1, Fairly useful filly who shaped very well when fifth in Sandringham at Royal Ascot in June, faring best of those ridden prominently. Drop back in trip may suit (strong traveller) and remains with potential. Solid effort at Royal Ascot (1m); drops to 6f for first time since her debut; yard in form.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/1 +0%) Crazy Luck	10 10/1(+0%)	(9) Crazy Luck 10/1, Won twice at this sort of trip last summer and returned to form when close second at Windsor in May. Couldn't back that up at York since but is below her last winning mark and could be a player. Nightmare passage in this race last year; good 2nd on penultimate start; below par latest.
8th	3 8th (3) (12/1 -20%) Bonny Angel	12 12/1(-20%)	(3) Bonny Angel 12/1, Dual winner as a 2-yo who ran about as well as could be expected when sixth of 16 in listed race at Bath (5f) on return in April. However, below that level at Newmarket next time and may prefer quicker ground. 2 nursery wins last year; promise on return but less good on soft latest; now tongue-tied.
9th	7 9th (7) (18/1 -29%) Mottisfont	18 18/1(-29%)	(7) Mottisfont 18/1, Run with credit in recent starts, latest when fourth of 11 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) 11 days ago. Ought to go well again, although suspicion remains a greater test of stamina would suit. Highly tried since debut win; didn't look a natural sprinter dropped to 6f last month.
10th	5 10th (5) (33/1 -65%) Glorious Angel	33 33/1(-65%)	(5) Glorious Angel 33/1, Completed hat-trick in January, winning at Southwell (twice) and Newcastle. Run respectably in defeat more recently but others look better treated. Looks high in the weights and the drop back to 6f isn't enough to tempt.
11th	10 11th (10) (16/1 +0%) Minnetonka	16 16/1(+0%)	(10) Minnetonka 16/1, Made encouraging return in Lingfield listed race in March but below that level since, including on Newmarket handicap bow last month. Others more appealing. Useful form in defeat since her debut win but she'll need a career best to take this.
12th	12 12th (12) (40/1 -150%) Elvenia	40 40/1(-150%)	(12) Elvenia 40/1, Lightly-raced filly who shaped better than previously this term when fourth of 6 in handicap (15/2) at Haydock (7f, soft) 10 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Drop back in trip looks a good move but percentage call is to look elsewhere. Possible to excuse her last two runs and she's unexposed back sprinting.
13th	2 13th (2) (2.25/1 +0%) Kitai	2.25 2.25/1(+0%)	(2) Kitai 2.25/1, Took her form up a notch in recent starts, scoring at Carlisle (6.9f) and Pontefract (6f, good to soft). 7 lb higher now but another bold bid looks on the cards. Easy winner of her last two starts; up in weights but dangerous to ignore in current form.

LTO Selection:

This could go the way of the hat-trick seeking KITAI, who kept on well to score by two and a half lengths over this distance at Pontefract last month. A 7lb rise may not be enough to hold her back here and she is taken to get the better of the grade-dropping Funny Story, who wasn't disgraced in Listed company at Ayr in June. Candle Of Hope also warrants consideration following a creditable run at Royal Ascot last time out.

KITAI arrives in a rich vein of form, and with conditions to suit is fancied to complete her hat-trick in the finale. The drop back to sprinting could suit Candle of Hope and she is feared most, whilst Executive Decision can also make her presence felt.

The thriving KITAI looks to have been found a good opportunity to complete her hat-trick. Candle Of Hope is next best.

1	5 1st (5) (0.25/1 +24%) Sharjah	0.25 0.25/1(+24%)	(5) Sharjah 0.25/1, Very smart hurdler (twice a runner-up in Champion Hurdle). Arrives here having run well when 2¾ lengths second of 13 to Fils D'oudairies in Grade 3 Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary (2m) 26 days ago and this looks a good opening for him making chase debut. High-class hurdler should be able to take this if jumping soundly on chasing debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (6.5/1 -18%) Mars Harper	6.5 6.5/1(-18%)	(2) Mars Harper 6.5/1, Useful over hurdles and similar form at best over fences without tasting success. Fell at the first returning from 3 months off in Midlands National at Kilbeggan (25f) 18 days ago but return to pick of her form should see her thereabouts. Disappointing on last few starts and fell early in the Midlands National; needs best.
3	6 3rd (6) (7.5/1 -25%) Walnut Beach	7.5 7.5/1(-25%)	(6) Walnut Beach 7.5/1, Fairly useful chaser. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Tramore (16f, good to soft, 5/2) 21 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Switches from Flat to chase and no surprise to see him in the mix. Solid efforts on both chase starts; will find Sharjah tough but can run well again.
4	1 4th (1) (11/1 -10%) Flaming Moon	11 11/1(-10%)	(1) Flaming Moon 11/1, Fairly useful hurdler who won listed novice event at this meeting 12 months ago. However, below best in that sphere during second half of last year and disappointing on the level in recent starts. Needs to get back on track now attentions switch to chasing. Listed novice hurdle winner here a year ago; poor on the Flat when last seen; needs best.
5th	7 5th (7) (125/1 -25%) Intersky Sunset	125 125/1(-25%)	(7) Intersky Sunset 125/1, Point winner but little to shout about under Rules and got no further than the second in mares' maiden chase at Kilbeggan (19f) 11 days ago (saddle slipped). Another who can only be watched. Suffered a slipped saddle last time but still has loads to find on previous form.
6th	3 6th (3) (50/1 +24%) Pale Blue Dot	50 50/1(+24%)	(3) Pale Blue Dot 50/1, Fair hurdler. One win from 24 NH runs. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle (12/1) at Killarney (22.8f, good) 11 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Likely to fall short. Well beaten both chase runs; this is too tough and will be better off in handicap company.
7th	4 7th (4) (200/1 +0%) Shackleton Island	200 200/1(+0%)	(4) Shackleton Island 200/1, Pulled up both starts in points. Poor maiden over hurdles, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.4f) 6 weeks ago. Hard to make a case for now sent chasing. Poor maiden is way out of his depth in this company.

LTO Selection:

At the age of 10, top-class hurdler SHARJAH is undoubtedly a late recruit to fences, but he still stands out a mile here and will prove hard to beat. The great Faugheen, for the same connections, had a similar profile when tackling racecourse fences for the first time at the age of 11, a move that ultimately proved very successful. A six-time winner at the highest level, the selection has reportedly 'schooled fantastically' and could yet add to his Grade 1 tally before the season is out. With a rating of 131, Mars Harper also stands out as the clear danger. He is without a win from seven starts over fences but has put in some fine efforts in defeat, finishing second in a Grade 2 at Punchestown in November. Walnut Beach has been running well of late and can challenge for minor honours.

A tremendous campaigner for connections, SHARJAH comes here on the back of a good second in a Grade 3 hurdle at Tipperary 26 days ago and this looks a good opportunity for Willie Mullins' veteran now his attentions switch to chasing. Mars Harper and Walnut Beach can do battle for minor honours.

It would be nonsensical to oppose the six-time Grade 1-winning hurdler SHARJAH, even though he is making his chasing debut.

One win from 29 Flat runs. 4/1, good second of 7 in minor event at Brighton (5.3f, good) 21 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Solid claims. Poor strike-rate but running well at a low level this summer; more appealing than many.
3	4 3rd (4) (2.25/1 +68%) Enchanted Night	2.25 2.25/1(+68%)	(4) Enchanted Night 2.25/1, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. One win from 34 Flat runs. 2/1, creditable second of 7 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, soft) 11 days ago, nearest finish. Expected to be bang there. C&D winner last month and also ran well 11 days ago; leading claims at this level.
4	7 4th (7) (6.5/1 -86%) Reckon I'm Hot	6.5 6.5/1(-86%)	(7) Reckon I'm Hot 6.5/1, Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. Creditable second of 10 in minor event at Brighton (6f, good, 4/1) 28 days ago, clear of rest. Should be on the premises again. Exposed 21-race maiden but he's in good form and holds each-way claims once again.
5th	12 5th (12) (40/1 -21%) Ali Jewels	40 40/1(-21%)	(12) Ali Jewels 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Twelfth of 15 in minor event at Leicester (6f, good, 80/1) 12 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Modest form to date, including at this level 12 days ago; drop to 5f not enough to tempt.
6th	13 6th (13) (8/1 +33%) Rewilding	8 8/1(+33%)	(13) Rewilding 8/1, Poor colt. 11/2, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 13 days ago, going off too hard. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Needs to improve. Unexposed; modest thus far but cheekpieces could help if his pedigree is any guide.
7th	2 7th (2) (8/1 +60%) Coast	8 8/1(+60%)	(2) Coast 8/1, Modest filly. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 25/1) 7 days ago. Back down in trip. Unlikely to feature. Should be making a big impact off her reduced mark but hasn't been; return to 5f a plus.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 -60%) Arzaak	16 16/1(-60%)	(1) Arzaak 16/1, Modest gelding. 10/1, fourth of 7 in minor event at Brighton (5.3f, good) 21 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Booking of Doyle a plus. Not dismissed. On long losing run; in fair form this summer but others are stronger for win purposes.
9th	6 9th (6) (28/1 +15%) Privilege	28 28/1(+15%)	(6) Privilege 28/1, Modest mare. Seventh of 10 in handicap (28/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal. Struggled since her surprise win on AW in January; others much safer.
10th	3 10th (3) (14/1 +44%) Ellie Piper	14 14/1(+44%)	(3) Ellie Piper 14/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 7 in handicap (16/1) at Nottingham (5f, soft) 11 days ago. Not firing at present. Not found her best form for this yard and others look stronger for win purposes.
11th	5 11th (5) (16/1 -88%) Jack Ryan	16 16/1(-88%)	(5) Jack Ryan 16/1, Modest gelding. Course winner. 100/1, last of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (5f, good) 11 days ago. Blinkers back on. Needs to bounce back. Course winner; hopeless task 11 days ago and this more suitable; 5f looks too sharp though.

LTO Selection:

It took ENCHANTED NIGHT 32 starts to get off the mark but she finally secured a handicap with a commanding performance at Yarmouth last month. The mare then had a legitimate excuse (reared at the start) back at the same venue before she went close again at Nottingham 11 days ago. If anything, this is a weaker contest and she may hold too much fire-power for Tilsworth Ony Ta and Reckon I'm Hot, who appeal most from the rest.

ENCHANTED NIGHT scored here last month and was back on track when second at Nottingham 11 days ago, so she's worth a chance to go one better. Reckon I'm hot and Tilsworth Ony Ta also arrive on the back of creditable efforts.

Enchanted Night and Suanni are high on the list but SNOW BERRY might be worth chancing dropped to this level.

Switches to fences and major player, even from out of the weights. Impressive yard debut over hurdles (2m4f, good); just 4lb higher on chase debut.
2	6 2nd (6) (7.5/1 -15%) Sinister Minister	7.5 7.5/1(-15%)	(6) Sinister Minister 7.5/1, Positive start to chase career when runner-up in a brace of C&D handicaps in June. Disappointing effort upped to 23f last time but expected to bounce back dropped in trip in a change of headgear. Placed over hurdles and fences at 2m4f but beaten a long way out on latest.
3	1 3rd (1) (50/1 -25%) Blackhillsofdakota	50 50/1(-25%)	(1) Blackhillsofdakota 50/1, Heavy defeats both starts over fences for this yard in 2021 and, after a 20-month absence, he's offered little back over hurdles in recent weeks. Had chase form at 2m4f in Ireland in 2021; pulled up/well held over hurdles since absence.
4	8 4th (8) (14/1 -75%) Lonimoss Bareliere	14 14/1(-75%)	(8) Lonimoss Bareliere 14/1, Remains a maiden after 22 runs but couple of runner-up efforts over 2m at Uttoxeter in recent weeks confirm he's competitive from his basement mark. Step back up in trip isn't an obvious move, though. In the frame several times at about 2m1f over hurdles/fences; stamina query at 2m4f.
5th	4 5th (4) (9/1 -6%) Can't Beat History	9 9/1(-6%)	(4) Can't Beat History 9/1, Runner-up in an Irish bumper last spring and showed more than previously over hurdles switched to a handicap when head-second at Doncaster (19.4f) in February. Just a fair fourth at Uttoxeter when last seen in May and now goes chasing (fell sole point start). Fell late in sole Irish point; chance on best 2m4f hurdle form now tackling fences.
6th	5 6th (5) (33/1 -65%) Newtonian	33 33/1(-65%)	(5) Newtonian 33/1, Fair form when placed in a brace of bumpers. Fifth on hurdles debut early last year but he's essentially disappointed since for Oliver Sherwood. Now goes chasing back from a break for new yard. Two hurdle falls last spring; minor handicap form for O Sherwood; chase debut.
7th	3 7th (3) (22/1 +33%) Scrappy Jack	22 22/1(+33%)	(3) Scrappy Jack 22/1, Winner of back-to-back juvenile hurdles in 2021 but has struggled in handicaps since. Hopes rest on switch to fences prompting a revival. Stamina for this far also to prove. Both wins in 2m1f hurdles in 2021; low-level form since back from absence; chase debut.
8th	2 8th (2) (8/1 -45%) Lamanver Storm	8 8/1(-45%)	(2) Lamanver Storm 8/1, Modest maiden jumper who was rather unfortunate to fall at the first at Hereford in November. Had a wind op after and found only one too good at Southwell a fortnight ago. Task is to now back that up. Very mixed over fences but more encouraging 2nd over 2m4f latest; thereabouts.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (40/1 -60%) Prince Of Bad Lins	40 40/1(-60%)	(7) Prince Of Bad Lins 40/1, Still looking for first win and little to get excited about both starts back in 2023. Mixes hurdles/chases; taken healthy weights drop; worth a go with this lesser stamina test.

LTO Selection:

My Gift To You remains unexposed and makes his chasing debut following a facile win over hurdles. The retained booking of Harry Cobden must make James Owen's inmate of significant interest, but LAMANVER STORM shades the vote.The eight-year-old kept on for second over a similar distance at Southwell last time out and shaped as though he would improve, given that was his first run off a break. Lonimoss Bareliere completes the shortlist.

MY GIFT TO YOU made a mockery of his lowly opening mark starting out for a new yard at Southwell a week ago and, assuming he takes to fences, the follow up looks firmly on the cards. Sinister Minister is fancied to get back on track returned to this C&D, with Lonimoss Bareliere a threat if seeing this trip out.

This can go to MY GIFT TO YOU who was impressive on his debut for this yard over hurdles and has a lowly mark to exploit over fences.

7th	8 7th (8) (33/1 +34%) The Crafty Girl	33 33/1(+34%)	(8) The Crafty Girl 33/1, Foaled March 3. Mastercraftsman filly. Sister to winner up to 8.6f Nezar and 1m/9f winner Italian King and half-sister to 3 winners, including 1m winner Ottilie. Dam unraced. No forlorn hope. By a decent sire and not a bad pedigree but others are preferred.
8th	3 8th (3) (18/1 -29%) I'll Rise	18 18/1(-29%)	(3) I'll Rise 18/1, Once-raced filly. 50/1, eighth of 14 in maiden at Limerick (7f, good to firm) on debut 48 days ago. Needs to build on it. Improvement likely from debut and should be capable of another decent effort.

LTO Selection:

With three efforts to her name, GLOR TIRE is the most experienced filly in the line-up, a fact which should stand to her in this eight-runner affair. The Teofilo-bay appears to be improving with each start and ran her best race to date when second at Leopardstown on her most recent outing. She finished half a length ahead of Brilliant at the Foxrock venue and that one since gave the form a boost by winning on her next start. Mayfair and Tannola are the most interesting of the newcomers, with the Aidan O'Brien-trained former given second preference. Out of Group 1 winner Clemmie, she holds many big race entries. Tannola represents Dermot Weld, who won this race 12 months ago with the brilliant Tahiyra. The Awtaad is closely-related to a whole host of winners and it'll come as no surprise if she proves good enough to win this. Kalispera can build on a solid debut effort, while the Paddy Twomey-trained Purple Lily is another that warrants respect.

Lots of potential on show but Jim Bolder's progressive Teofilo filly GLOR TIRE sets a good standard on the form of her recent Leopardstown second so gets the vote. Aidan O'Brien's Justify newcomer Mayfair rates a big threat though while fellow debutantes Tannola and Purple Lily also need considering in an intriguing juvenile maiden.

Preference is for the well-bred newcomer MAYFAIR, representing a yard that does well in this race.

Should improve and has outstanding claims. Ran big race in defeat on hurdling debut in June and has big role to play here.
2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 +20%) VE Day	2 2/1(+20%)	(1) VE Day 2/1, Fair maiden on the level for Andrew Balding. Landed 4-runner juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) on debut in this sphere in March. Has matched rather than bettered that form since. Yet to build upon his winning hurdle debut but still features prominently in calculations.

Blinkered for 1st time. Beaten out of sight when 150-1 for hurdle debut in June; blinkers added today.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (150/1 -436%) Gold Terms	150 150/1(-436%)	(5) Gold Terms 150/1, Never a threat in maiden sole start on Flat for Grant Tuer. Makes hurdles debut after 20 months off and most likely best watched. Not seen since low-key Flat debut in November 2021.

LTO Selection:

PARK ANNONCIADE shaped with promise over an extended 2m1f on his hurdling bow in June, where he weakened late on to fill the runner-up spot. Simon Crawford's charge ought to have learned plenty from that experience, though, and this looks a good opportunity to go one better down in trip. Ve Day appeals as his main danger, while market support for newcomer Gold Terms would be interesting.

PARK ANNONCIADE got his career firmly back on track sent hurdling when nabbed by a stronger stayer right at the death at Sligo in June and this is an excellent opportunity for him to go one better. Ve Day is the obvious one to follow him home.

VE Day ought to make a race of this but PARK ANNONCIADE is the one to beat, having run a big race in defeat on his hurdling debut.

Mostly below form since but there was more encouragement on latest run over fences at Stratford. One to consider from handy mark. She threatened to drop herself out at Stratford before staying on again.
3	7 3rd (7) (6/1 +50%) Ironhill	6 6/1(+50%)	(7) Ironhill 6/1, Made winning start for Alastair Ralph in bumper last summer.

Needs to show benefit of that run now attentions switch back to chasing. Blinkers tried. Remote placing in a maiden hurdle latest; switches back to fences for handicap debut.

7th	4 7th (4) (5.5/1 +45%) Barely Famous	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(4) Barely Famous 5.5/1, Dual hurdles winner in the autumn but hasn't fired since joining this yard, only fourth of 6 in handicap chase over C&D last time. Others look more appealing. No closer than 19l in four starts for this yard, the last two over fences.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (25/1 +24%) Hedgehopper	25 25/1(+24%)	(9) Hedgehopper 25/1, Maiden pointer who hasn't offered much over hurdles. May do better in this discipline, so not completely ruled out. Poor form and makes chase/handicap debut from 11lb out of the weights.

LTO Selection:

In a contest lacking depth, marginal preference is given to recent C&D runner-up ZORAN. Emma Lavelle's inmate has gone up 2lb for the aforementioned outing and is taken to get the better of Copper Fox, who was pulled up over an extended 2m1f at Cartmel last month. If I Say also warrants a market check following a distant third at Stratford.

ZORAN made a solid start to his chasing career when second over C&D last time and he's taken to go one better at the likely expense of If I Say, who was better than the result at Stratford last time. Oval Street is also worthy of consideration.

It could be that COPPER FOX didn't fancy the twists and turns of Cartmel last time having previously started well over fences.

18th	8 18th (8) (7.5/1 +17%) Rahmi	7.5 7.5/1(+17%)	(8) Rahmi 7.5/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 4/1, 2½ lengths fourth of 18 to Blues Emperor in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Likely to continue in form.

LTO Selection:

Unsurprisingly, Adrian McGuinness saddles a strong team as he bids to claim this valuable prize for the fourth time in five years. Just denied by half a length 12 months ago, Casanova is one of seven representatives for McGuinness and the Frankel gelding is sure to have plenty of supporters, with Cian MacRedmond claiming a valuable 5lb. The Co Dublin handler also saddles leading hopes in the shape of three-time course winner Current Option, recent Leopardstown victor Celtic Crown and top-weight Saltonstall, who is bidding to win this race for a third time. For a selection, it might be worth siding with DUNUM, despite the fact his excellent run of form came to an end at Royal Ascot. His previous seven starts yielded five wins and he might be able to bounce back to his best now. Alanya is of definite interest after her comfortable Ladies Derby success, while others for the shortlist in this extremely competitive affair are Blues Emperor, Salt Lake City, Rahmi, Joe Masseria and Soaring Monarch.

ALANYA belied unflattering odds when making a taking winning Irish debut at the Curragh a month ago and if there's a runner with the potential to be a lot better than their current mark, it's probably her. Blues Emperor also has a likeable profile and is a big threat, with Current Option perhaps the pick of the Adrian McGuinness septet.

This has been won by a horse with a double-digit draw six years in a row. SOARING MONARCH may continue this trend

8th	7 8th (7) (100/1 -203%) Knocky	100 100/1(-203%)	(7) Knocky 100/1, Dual point winner, including in March, but offered little on Down Royal hurdle debut last summer.

9th	9 9th (9) (66/1 -313%) Moneynabane	66 66/1(-313%)	(9) Moneynabane 66/1, Offered more than previously when 15 lengths sixth of 14 at Downpatrick recently but more will be needed to play a prominent role here.

10th	1 10th (1) (50/1 -25%) Ballyphilip	50 50/1(-25%)	(1) Ballyphilip 50/1, Maiden pointer. Wears a tongue strap on Rules debut. Likely outsider. 0-6 in Irish points; not devoid of ability but probably best watched on rules debut.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (200/1 -203%) Carlo Storm	200 200/1(-203%)	(3) Carlo Storm 200/1, Placed on completed start in points in 2021. 80/1, last of 14 in bumper at Wetherby (2m, heavy) in December (only start for John Wainwright). Can only be watched now hurdling for new yard. Struggled in a bumper for John Wainwright in December; with new stable for hurdle debut.

LTO Selection:

CHAMP DE GANE has yet to open his account after 15 starts, but the Kapgarde gelding has been running well over the larger obstacles recently. He sets the standard on official ratings and he could be hard to pass if running to form. Having been narrowly denied at Downpatrick last month, Bayonetta ought to be on the premises, along with dual point-to-point winner Dripsey Moon.

Perhaps this can be the day that CHAMP DE GANE, who returns to hurdles after a spell chasing. finally gets off the mark. John McConnell point recruit Dripsey Moon could be a dangerous opponent if the betting speaks in his favour. Downpatrick runner-up Bayonetta should also be on the premises.

Dripsey Moon won his last two points but CHAMP DE GANE sets a pretty good standard of rules form and gets the vote.

He dropped out to be well beaten on last week's stable debut here; back up in trip.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (125/1 -56%) Wee Willie Nail	125 125/1(-56%)	(8) Wee Willie Nail 125/1, Won Gowran maiden on final start for Gordon Elliott in September but has failed to complete all 3 starts for new connections (pulled up on each occasion). Has plenty to prove. Has been pulled up in all three starts for this yard, the latest after a break.

LTO Selection:

Northern Bound has been running with credit over fences recently and could play a leading role from a reduced hurdles mark, but preference is for THE HEIGHT OF FAME. She bumped into an improver when filling the runner-up spot at Newton Abbot last month, so the daughter of Fame And Glory might be worth chancing from an unchanged mark. Astromachia is also noted.

A case can be made for a few of these but THE HEIGHT OF FAME made a promising return when runner-up at Newton Abbot and is taken to go one better off an unchanged mark. In-form top-weight Astromachia heads the list of dangers, with Jamie Snowden's pair College Oak and Sea The Clouds also in the mix.

Ben Pauling's NORTHERN BOUND is a much better chaser than hurdler but is rated accordingly and this isn't a strong handicap.

Tongue strap on for 1st time. Finished third in this event at 100-1 last season, little else of any merit in her form.
10th	12 10th (12) (150/1 +0%) Saoirses Lulaby	150 150/1(+0%)	(12) Saoirses Lulaby 150/1, Once-raced filly. Last of 14 in maiden (100/1) at Dundalk (7f) on debut. Off 7 months. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Last of 14 at Dundalk on only start at two, transformation required with tongue-tie.

Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. 17/2, ninth of 14 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft) 14 days ago, merely closing up late. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Started the season with a couple of fair handicaps displays, seems regressive now.

LTO Selection:

The well-bred NELDA is taken to reverse Naas form with Pier Pressure. There was just a short head between them at the Tipper Road venue, with the selection since finishing a respectable sixth in a Group 3 at Fairyhouse. Bought for E230,000 as a yearling, she might be able to take advantage of her favourable draw in four. The aforementioned Pier Pressure is drawn out in 10 and steps up in trip to 7f after being placed on his first two starts. There was plenty of market confidence behind the Kingman bay on both occasions and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to make the breakthrough now. Livio Milo is the other standout name in the line-up. A runner-up no less than four times, he would be a deserving winner, however he has a wide draw to overcome and is rated 8lb inferior to the selection. Caulaincourt and Brave Thought are others capable of making an impact.

PIER PRESSURE shaped well on his Naas reappearance 5 weeks ago and can build on that promise and get off the mark at the third attempt. Nelda wasn't beaten that far in a Group 3 last time and is second choice ahead of Dermot Weld's Livio Milo.

The well-related NELDA now has another run under her belt and may reverse Naas form with Pier Pressure

Holds strong claims. Not at best when second here in June but remains on good chase mark; wants good ground.

Work to do on return off current mark. Second in a point in April but needs to prove he can cope with current handicap mark.
4	4 4th (4) (3.33/1 +5%) Hidden Commander	3.33 3.33/1(+5%)	(4) Hidden Commander 3.33/1, Won 5 times over fences for this yard but been more miss than hit in recent starts. Back on last winning mark now but percentage call is to look elsewhere. Back on last winning mark but didn't fire last time and seems best on left-handed tracks.

LTO Selection:

Presentandcounting will be a threat to all if able to dominate from the front, but with Hidden Commander likely to press the pace it might be worth siding with GOLDEN TAIPAN. The largely consistent nine-year-old ought to get a good tow into the race and his recent C&D second would suggest he might be ready to record a fourth chase success.

GOLDEN TAIPAN returned to form here last time and is below his last winning mark. He can get back on the scoreboard. C&D winner Presentandcounting looks the obvious danger.

After looking stretched by a truly run 3m here last time, PRESENTANDCOUNTING can get back to winning ways over this shorter trip.

LTO Selection:

MILITARY TWO STEP won off a mark of 82 on the Flat last month, having achieved a peak rating of 90 previously. Recruited by the James Owen team later that month, she ought to mount a serious challenge if taking to this new discipline. She shades preference over Hard As Nails, who made a pleasing start when third, albeit well beaten, at Cartmel on her hurdling bow. Others to note include Our Nel and Come On Du Berlais.

HARD AS NAILS made an encouraging start in this sphere when third at Cartmel so is fancied to build on it and add to her two bumper successes. Hurdling newcomers Our Nel and Military Two Step both bring potential so appeal as the duo to give Fergal O'Brien's mare most to do and can chase her home in that order.

Hard As Nails may be the pick of those with hurdling experience but MILITARY TWO STEP is useful on the Flat and she gets the vote.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable sixth of 18 in handicap (7/1) at the Curragh (8f, good to firm) 30 days ago. Yard in good form. Respected. Solid runs in defeat in premier handicaps over 1m lately; this stiff 7f should suit.

LTO Selection:

IMPOSING SUPREME has a fine record at Ballybrit and is one of the safer options in this competitive affair. A three-time course winner, he caught the eye on his penultimate start at the Curragh, before registering a fifth career success at Bellewstown. Clearly in good spirits, the seven-year-old should be able to make his presence felt. Adrian McGuinness is again well represented, saddling four of the 16 set to take part. His Sirjack Thomas is given second preference, with this one successful in the feature race on the card back in 2021. He ended a long losing streak by winning at the Curragh in May and was a never nearer sixth in the Nasrullah Handicap on his most recent start. Laughifuwant is a dual course and distance winner and warrants respect with Colin Keane aboard, all of 20lb lower than his most recent winning mark. Gambe Veloci is of definite interest on what will be just his third start in handicap company, while others of note are Pinar Del Rio and Kodiac Prince, along with recent winners Bells On Her Toes and Eastern Wind.

Multiple course winner IMPOSING SUPREME bounced back to form when scoring at Bellewstown last month and remains feasibly treated. He can follow up. Plunkett and Eastern Wind head the list of dangers.

Runner-up at this meeting last year, BELLS ON HER TOES has been in fine form lately and can follow up her Naas win.

Stable's British runners always merit respect. 0-7 over hurdles but went close in first-time cheekpieces at Sligo last month; respected.
3	8 3rd (8) (5.5/1 +45%) Malangen	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(8) Malangen 5.5/1, Benefited from an enterprising ride when winning a 4-runner race over 2½m here last month. Has stamina to prove now stepping up to 3m and not an obvious one to follow up. Dominated small-field 2m4f event from the front here last month; this race is tougher.
4	1 4th (1) (14/1 -75%) Anightinlambourn	14 14/1(-75%)	(1) Anightinlambourn 14/1, Progressive over fences in the second half of 2022. Pulled up twice at Cheltenham in the spring but shaped as if back in form when seventh of 16 in Summer Cup at Uttoxeter last month. First-time cheekpieces he wore on that occasion are retained now reverting to hurdles. Has made very good progress over fences since her latest hurdle run; interesting.
5th	6 5th (6) (5.5/1 -57%) Doune Castle	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(6) Doune Castle 5.5/1, Fair on his day, resuming winning ways over C&D in June, proving suited by the step back up in trip. An 8 lb rise looks manageable. Clearcut C&D winner when back up in trip in June; 8lb higher now but still considered.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (1.5/1 +25%) Basford	1.5 1.5/1(+25%)	(4) Basford 1.5/1, Bumper winner who has scored 4 times over hurdles this summer, producing a dominant display in handicap company at Southwell (3m) last week. That was a thin race but he should still have a big say under a 7 penalty. Three wins this season, the latest by 39l last week; strong claims under 7lb penalty.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (12/1 -33%) Pammi	12 12/1(-33%)	(7) Pammi 12/1, Standing dish around here (5-time C&D winner). Doesn't obviously arrive in form (well held on Flat recently) but she is back on a winning mark. Five-time winner over C&D but has a bit to prove at present.

LTO Selection:

Basford is respected given he arrives on the back of winning three of his last four starts. However, he has a 7lb penalty to contend with and may meet his match in the shape of ANIGHTINLAMBOURN, who won over fences at Cheltenham off 7lb higher last November. Ben Pauling's mare is well treated back over timber and may find more with the cheekpieces retained. C&D winner Dinoland completes the shortlist.

If DOUNE CASTLE is in the same form as when successful over C&D last time he might be able to defy a rise in the weights. The race Basford won at Southwell last week fell apart somewhat but he did it very easily and has to be respected under a 7 lb penalty. John McConnell's Dinoland may prove best of the rest.

Competitive in a marathon Flat handicap at Royal Ascot, THRONE HALL now attempts a staying trip for the first time over hurdles.

6	6 \|U\| (6) (4.5/1 +0%) Choirmaster	4.5 4.5/1(+0%)	(6) Choirmaster 4.5/1, Fairly useful on Flat and a wind op/tongue tie has helped his finishing effort on last two outings, third over C&D last time. Should give another good account. Placed in three handicaps this summer, latterly behind an improver over C&D; in the mix.

LTO Selection:

IZAYTE wasn't beaten far over this trip at Uttoxeter last time and, while this is a slight step up in class, he can gain compensation as the competition doesn't look much deeper. Neil King's gelding possibly paid the price for cutting out the running on that occasion, yet still deserves credit for a very game effort. Forget The Way is feared most on his third start after returning from wind surgery, although Choirmaster is another fancied to go well.

FORGET THE WAY improved when second at Southwell last time and, with few miles on the clock, he's fancied to open his account. The in-form Izayte is a clear threat and Cumhacht is likely to be on the premises.

Several frustrating possibles but IZAYTE (nap) has managed to put his head in front in a handicap and he can do so again.

2	15 2nd (15) (7/1 +50%) Arch Enemy	7 7/1(+50%)	(15) Arch Enemy 7/1, Latest win at Listowel in June. 17/2, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (10.3f, good) 38 days ago, slowly away. Can't be ruled out. Dundalk and Listowel winner this year, well beaten off this mark at Down Royal last time.
3	7 3rd (7) (4/1 +0%) Khafaaq	4 4/1(+0%)	(7) Khafaaq 4/1, Course winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 15-runner handicap (9/1) at Limerick (8f, good) 38 days ago. Should go well again. Up an aggregate 13lb after two wins and two seconds since May, could feature again.
4	8 4th (8) (4.5/1 +50%) Starting Monday	4.5 4.5/1(+50%)	(8) Starting Monday 4.5/1, Course winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable sixth of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft, 17/2) 14 days ago. Every chance if back to best. Chance on his second in testing conditions at Cork in May, unplaced twice then.
5th	6 5th (6) (7/1 +30%) Dabana	7 7/1(+30%)	(6) Dabana 7/1, Winner at Dundalk in February. 14/1, shaped as if better for run when fourth of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Back up in trip. Should be much closer to form this time. May have needed recent run over 7f at Leopardstown, longer trip will suit, good chance.
6th	16 6th (16) (80/1 -60%) Golden Warrior	80 80/1(-60%)	(16) Golden Warrior 80/1, Hooded for 1st time, last of 15 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, good to soft, 66/1) 14 days ago, slowly away. Hard to make a case for. Dual AW winner in Britain; no impact in four runs in Ireland, last of 15 at Killarney.
7th	10 7th (10) (33/1 -65%) Coviglia	33 33/1(-65%)	(10) Coviglia 33/1, 18/1, first run since leaving C. Moore when below form eighth of 14 in claimer at Bellewstown (7.8f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Others make more appeal. Useful 2022 form winning twice and placing three times, may have needed Bellewstown run.
8th	19 8th (19) (20/1 +0%) Brown Eagle	20 20/1(+0%)	(19) Brown Eagle 20/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Good second of 11 in claimer (12/1) at Killarney (8.2f, good) 13 days ago. RESERVE. First reserve, 1-23 record is a negative and he has shown his best form in claiming races.
9th	5 9th (5) (16/1 -45%) Blackcastle Storm	16 16/1(-45%)	(5) Blackcastle Storm 16/1, Pulled up in novice hurdle (25/1) at Ballinrobe (17f, good) on NH debut 7 days ago, dropping away quickly. Well treated and likely to be back to form returning to the Flat. Pulled-up in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe last week, tough task against that background.
10th	3 10th (3) (14/1 +0%) Mercurial	14 14/1(+0%)	(3) Mercurial 14/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. 5/1, sixth of 7 in minor event at Limerick (6.7f, good) 39 days ago. Up in trip. Not firing so far this term, but is sliding in the weights. Had fair placed form last summer but over shorter distances than this, not certain to stay.
11th	17 11th (17) (22/1 +12%) Gometra Ginty	22 22/1(+12%)	(17) Gometra Ginty 22/1, Visored for 1st time, tenth of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good to firm, 9/1) 29 days ago, doing too much too soon. First run for yard after leaving Keith Dalgleish. Worth a market check. Nine-time winner for Keith Dalgleish, not at her best this year, plenty to prove now.
12th	12 12th (12) (40/1 -60%) Humanitarian	40 40/1(-60%)	(12) Humanitarian 40/1, Quirky sort. Sixteen runs since last win in 2020. 22/1, sixth of 8 in novice hurdle at Ballinrobe (17f, good) 7 days ago. Poor on last Flat outing. Hard to make a solid case for back in this sphere. Fit from hurdling but recent form not as encouraging as a couple of runs in the spring.
13th	13 13th (13) (22/1 +33%) Little Jo	22 22/1(+33%)	(13) Little Jo 22/1, Latest win at Nottingham in May. Last of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (7f, good to soft, 22/1) 12 days ago, very slowly away. Back up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Has a bit to prove at present. Nine wins in Britain, two of them over 1m in May, well held on first two Irish starts.
14th	11 14th (11) (33/1 +0%) Highland King	33 33/1(+0%)	(11) Highland King 33/1, 40/1, first run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when twelfth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. Might bounce back. Maiden whose best run came when close second in a 1m1f handicap at Leopardstown last year.
15th	18 15th (18) (50/1 -52%) Noble Crusade	50 50/1(-52%)	(18) Noble Crusade 50/1, 16/1, eleventh of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good to soft) 18 days ago, finishing with running left. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Returns to this sphere on a handy mark. Sole Irish win came over further than this at Killarney last year, out of form since then.
16th	4 16th (4) (11/1 +31%) Safari Quest	11 11/1(+31%)	(4) Safari Quest 11/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap at Roscommon (11.7f, good, 16/1) 61 days ago. Down in trip. Not easy to make a case for. Down 10lb since the start of the season and from a yard with a fine record at this fixture.
17th	14 17th (14) (14/1 +30%) The Mpex Kid	14 14/1(+30%)	(14) The Mpex Kid 14/1, 11/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f). Off 7 months. Up in trip. Likely to need the run. Two wins over 1m at Dundalk last year, 1-22 turf record is off-putting, lacks a recent run.
18th	9 18th (9) (66/1 -100%) Albion Princess	66 66/1(-100%)	(9) Albion Princess 66/1, 10/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (8f). Off 160 days. First run for yard after leaving Harry & Roger Charlton. Returns with a bit to prove. AW and good-ground turf winner in Britain, soft ground may not be ideal for Irish debut.

LTO Selection:

Dropped 6lb for his latest effort at Roscommon, SAFARI QUEST is an interesting contender off a revised mark of 70. Previously trained by Ger Lyons and successful at Gowran in September of 2021, he returned to action in March, making his debut for Tony Martin after a lengthy layoff. While he has shown very little in recent starts, he is capable of making his presence felt if returning to his best, with Ben Coen a positive jockey booking. Khafaaq has been in fine form of late and is sure to have plenty of supporters, as he bids to win for a third time this season. A nine-time winner in the UK, Gometra Ginty starts off for Denis Hogan and with Kyle McHugh claiming a valuable 10lb, she should give a good account of herself. A case can be made for many others in this wide-open contest, with Complete Fiction, Dabana, Arch Enemy and Desert Wind all leading contenders.

STARTING MONDAY was quickly back to form when sixth at Killarney last time and would have finished closer with a clear run, so he's worth a chance to land this for all that he'll need a bit of luck from a wide draw. Khafaaq and Complete Fiction look the main dangers.

A handicap only in name with just 3lb separating top from bottom. DABANA should be spot-on for this after a recent run at Leopardstown

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (1.88/1 +0%) Sword Of Fate	1.88 1.88/1(+0%)	(1) Sword Of Fate 1.88/1, C&D winner who bounced back to form to score at Wetherby (15.2f) in April. Mixed bag subsequently and no match for thriving sort in 3-runner handicap over C&D latest, but back in lower grade now and holds solid claims. Not one to rely upon nowadays but runs this track well and is on a workable mark.
2	7 2nd (7) (14/1 +72%) A Place Apart	14 14/1(+72%)	(7) A Place Apart 14/1, Went off the boil for Gavin Cromwell in 2020 and little impact for current yard last year. Best watched from out of the handicap on return from 11-month absence. Out of form over hurdles when last seen last summer and hasn't won since 2018.
3	6 3rd (6) (2.5/1 -25%) Izzy's Champion	2.5 2.5/1(-25%)	(6) Izzy's Champion 2.5/1, Made the frame again when third of 5 in handicap chase (7/2) at Market Rasen (19.2f, good to firm) 39 days ago. Ought to give another good account but others preferred for win purposes. 1 lb out of the weights. Fairly consistent 9yo who is suited by this C&D and won't mind what the weather does.
4	2 4th (2) (7.5/1 +38%) Ballymagee	7.5 7.5/1(+38%)	(2) Ballymagee 7.5/1, Hasn't shown much to date, including in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick last time. Has scored in points, however, and is worth monitoring in the market on chasing bow. Still unexposed under rules but finished well down the field on handicap hurdle debut.
3	3 \|U\| (3) (3.33/1 +39%) Sea Prince	3.33 3.33/1(+39%)	(3) Sea Prince 3.33/1, Nine-race maiden whose best effort thus far came when second in handicap hurdle at this course (23.9f, good) in June, Not in quite same form here, latest, and remains to be seen if switch to chasing brings about improvement. 0-7 over hurdles but was second here last month; makes chasing debut today.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (14/1 +50%) Zagnzig	14 14/1(+50%)	(5) Zagnzig 14/1, One win from 53 NH runs. Fared no better returned to hurdling at Downpatrick last month and is hard to recommend on yard debut/return to chasing. Veteran; without a win since 2018 and has struggled to get compettitive this year.

LTO Selection:

SWORD OF FATE sets the standard on the back of his C&D second to subsequent Summer Plate winner Born Famous last month and, while he was well held by that rival, he faces nothing of that calibre in here and could be hard to beat. Sea Prince goes well at this course and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Lough Carra is open to improvement over fences.

SWORD OF FATE is back in a lower grade than in recent starts and can record another course victory. Lough Carra may provide the chief threat, whilst the consistent Izzy's Champion is likely to be in the mix once more.

He's not very consistent but SWORD OF FATE often runs well in stronger races than this and has a good opportunity here.

1	2 1st (2) (7.5/1 +38%) Dynamic Kate	7.5 7.5/1(+38%)	(2) Dynamic Kate 7.5/1, Scored a couple of times at Fontwell last autumn and made a promising reappearance at Ludlow in May. Failed to build on that but she's not one to write off. Ran well in May, after a layoff, but well beaten since; has a point to prove.
2	7 2nd (7) (1.2/1 +13%) Rubys Reward	1.2 1.2/1(+13%)	(7) Rubys Reward 1.2/1, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft, 9/1) 22 days ago, soon clear. Had plenty in hand and form is backed up by the time, so worth a chance to follow up in a first-time hood. Come from off the pace to win quite stylishly over C&D last month; Cobden booked again.
3	11 3rd (11) (28/1 -40%) Tre A Peni	28 28/1(-40%)	(11) Tre A Peni 28/1, Hard to rely on and arrives on the back of a poor run at Uttoxeter 40 days ago. Headgear switched up again but he's up against it from out of the weights. Third twice in May but latest run was disappointing and she's 9lb out of the weights here.
4	6 4th (6) (8/1 -23%) Valentine Getaway	8 8/1(-23%)	(6) Valentine Getaway 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden who shaped as if better for the run when fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at this course a couple of months ago. May yet do better on just her third handicap outing. Safely held in first two handicaps but her C&D fifth in May was more encouraging.
5th	8 5th (8) (33/1 -83%) Janeslittlevoice	33 33/1(-83%)	(8) Janeslittlevoice 33/1, Hasn't shown much form since 2020 and looks set for another struggle. In process of running well on stable debut until saddle slipped; interesting.
6th	9 6th (9) (20/1 +9%) Trickalight	20 20/1(+9%)	(9) Trickalight 20/1, Irish point winner but remains with little form over hurdles. Likely to struggle again. Didn't run badly over C&D last month but is 5lb wrong today and needs to improve.
7th	4 7th (4) (6.5/1 +13%) Sheila Nash	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(4) Sheila Nash 6.5/1, Won twice over C&D last summer for Harry Whittington and back on track when third here 22 days ago. Has become well treated and shouldn't be dismissed. Dual C&D winner last summer and back in good form when third over C&D last month.
8th	3 8th (3) (10/1 -11%) Symbolic Spirit	10 10/1(-11%)	(3) Symbolic Spirit 10/1, Runner-up on Southwell handicap hurdle debut in November and back on track when sixth at Ludlow 3 months ago. Can compete if the blinkers perk him up. 0-7 over hurdles but ran well when close sixth over 2m5f in April; could have a say.
9th	12 9th (12) (100/1 +0%) The Swede	100 100/1(+0%)	(12) The Swede 100/1, No sign of ability over hurdles to date. Best watched on handicap debut. Well beaten at triple-digit odds in four novice hurdles; 26lb wrong for handicap debut.
1	1 \|F\| (1) (7.5/1 -36%) Cluain Aodha	7.5 7.5/1(-36%)	(1) Cluain Aodha 7.5/1, Got off the mark at Warwick in March and not disgraced in form terms on both subsequent runs, fourth of 6 at Uttoxeter on latest. Worth considering down in grade. Hasn't kicked on from her 2m3f success in March; needs to up her game.
10th	5 10th (5) (20/1 -67%) Fenney Brook	20 20/1(-67%)	(5) Fenney Brook 20/1, Thrived latterly last year, forging clear to make it 2 wins from last 3 starts in mares' novice handicap at Ludlow (21.2f) in November. Hasn't looked in the same form this term, though. Triple winner in 2022; may yet progress again but is yet to strike form this year.
11th	10 11th (10) (40/1 -21%) Blitz Spirit	40 40/1(-21%)	(10) Blitz Spirit 40/1, Fair performer on the Flat in France but she has yet to make a meaningful impact in this sphere, so she's hard to make a case for. Safely held over 2m4f here 12 days ago; tries a new trip today; 5lb out of the weights.

LTO Selection:

RUBYS REWARD had plenty in hand when she won over C&D last month and is fancied to be hard to beat, despite a 7lb higher mark. If anything, this looks an easier assignment for Debra Hamer's mare and it would come as no surprise to see her take the challenge in her stride. Valentine Getaway and Cluain Aodha are others with the ability to make the frame at least.

RUBYS REWARD found improvement to score in ready fashion over C&D 22 days ago and she makes most appeal in the follow-up bid. Cluain Aodha is a danger back from a short break and Dynamic Kate can't be ruled out.

Dual C&D winner SHEILA NASH returned to form with a good effort here last month and remains on a good mark.

1	1 1st (1) (4.5/1 +68%) Cave Court	4.5 4.5/1(+68%)	(1) Cave Court 4.5/1, Still looking for first success and was never involved over a longer trip on chase debut at Downpatrick when last seen in May. Returns to hurdling now. Good second on handicap debut in December but disappointing since.
2	6 2nd (6) (4.5/1 +31%) Pateen	4.5 4.5/1(+31%)	(6) Pateen 4.5/1, Resumed winning ways at Hexham (16.2f) in May and far from disgraced when fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 12/1) last month. 1lb lower now and not discounted. Not getting any younger but ran okay last month and has each-way claims here.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 -100%) Littel Flour	12 12/1(-100%)	(2) Littel Flour 12/1, Unable to score in 14 attempts in Ireland but posted respectable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) last time and is worth a second look in market on debut for new yard. 0-11 over hurdles in Ireland but her Tipperary third in May gives her claims.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -433%) Love Mystery	12 12/1(-433%)	(4) Love Mystery 12/1, Fair maiden on Flat who offered more in this sphere when third of 8 in novice at Stratford (16.3f, good to soft, 66/1) 28 days ago, not knocked about. Merits consideration on switch to handicapping. Improved form when third in Stratford maiden last month; handicap debut today.
5th	8 5th (8) (8/1 +11%) Jack Yeats	8 8/1(+11%)	(8) Jack Yeats 8/1, Modest strike rate on the Flat and winless following 16 attempts over hurdles. Continues to drop down the weights without threatening to take advantage. Ran okay behind Pateen at Hexham in May but only win was gained on the Flat in 2019.
6th	3 6th (3) (25/1 -56%) Wasdell Dundalk	25 25/1(-56%)	(3) Wasdell Dundalk 25/1, Landed 2m handicap chase for Jonjo O'Neill at Ffos Las last June but well below par since, including in 3 starts for new yard of late. Best watched at present. Hasn't fired on any of three starts for new stable this year; needs to turn a corner.
7th	7 7th (7) (6/1 +25%) Prospect House	6 6/1(+25%)	(7) Prospect House 6/1, Bettered previous form when second in Market Rasen handicap hurdle (16.6f, good, 7/1) in May but failed to repeat that over same C&D last time. Others more appealing. 0-6 over hurdles but has claims if judged on Market Rasen second two starts ago.
8th	5 8th (5) (2/1 +43%) Just Dottie	2 2/1(+43%)	(5) Just Dottie 2/1, Offered little in bumper/on Flat but has found her feet over hurdles for current stable, overcoming a slipping saddle when scoring over C&D in May. Back on track when third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 9/2) latest and likely to make presence felt again. Won in pretty good style over C&D in May and has remained in good form; respected.

LTO Selection:

JUST DOTTIE, who won a handicap hurdle against her own sex off 5lb lower here in May, has a lot going for her in this company and her proven liking for this circuit could be a crucial factor. A good tempo will ideally suit the selection but, with no obvious pace angle, she is versatile enough to make the running. Love Mystery has scope to improve in this discipline and is feared most, while recent Hexham winner Pateen also commands respect.

There should be more to come from LOVE MYSTERY over hurdles and he is fancied to make a successful handicap debut. Just Dottie and Pateen rate the principal dangers.

C&D winner JUST DOTTIE (nap) returns here after a good third at Market Rasen in June and is probably still on a workable mark.

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.
