Class & Speed Card

Vespasian looked set to go on after winning twice in Dubai but he has been off since March 2024 and it will be some training performance to win this. Venture Capital was beaten a neck off this mark at Hamilton and has to be a player, but a chance is taken on MANACCAN. Not at his best in two starts this year, he has two Listed and a Group 3 win in the bank and may prove too good for these.

Solid recent form is thin on the ground but VENTURE CAPITAL went close at Hamilton last week and can go one better.
Class & Speed Card

Ryan Moore rides the well-bred HAWK MOUNTAIN in preference to the more experienced Ballydoyle runner Charles Fort, who showed ability at Fairyhouse. By Wootton Bassett and out of a Group 1-winning mare who has already produced two Listed winners, the selection has a Doncaster Champagne Stakes entry and likely has smart ability. Geryon boasts a very notable Futurity Stakes entry and he is from a good family and by a leading sire. Al Haarith is noted too.

In all likelihood a strong maiden but a confident pick in AL HAARITH (nap), a real eyecatcher over C&D on Derby weekend
Class & Speed Card

Not beaten far in second on his first go in nursery company at Newbury last month, JOHN BARLEYCORN is taken to get off the mark at the fifth time of asking. Leicester scorer Renovatio Angel can give the selection the most to think about, as well as Ballistic Missile, who has undergone wind surgery since disappointing in the Coventry when last seen.

The Coventry was a step too far for BALLISTIC MISSILE but he retains potential, as some eyecatching entries would imply.
Class & Speed Card

Picked up for 30,000gns by shrewd operation The Horse Watchers, HOSTILITY is fancied to break his maiden on this UK debut. The No Nay Never gelding, who boasts an official rating of 82, posted a number of promising efforts when trained in Ireland and should prove hard to beat if running to form. Monsieur Bondy shaped with promise on his racecourse bow at Doncaster last month and must enter calculations, as must sole filly Apple Catcher, who represents a yard that have had another fine season with their newcomers.

This looks a golden opportunity for HOSTILITY to make a winning start for new connections. Monsieur Bondy is best of the rest.
Class & Speed Card

Spirit Mixer arrives on the back of a battling neck success in the Northumberland Plate, but he has an extra 5lb which clearly makes his task more difficult. Jessica Harrington won this in 2023 which makes the lightly-raced La Vita Nova interesting in first-time cheekpieces, but ALMUHIT gets the nod. Two wins at Newbury by a head and a neck have only seen him upped 3lb in total, but once he gets to the front he has proved difficult to pass.

Low-mileage 4yo LA VITA NOVA (nap) has good claims for Jessica Harrington and Hollie Doyle who combined to win this race two years ago.
Class & Speed Card

THE PUBLICAN'S SON was a 200,000-dollar purchase last March and might be useful. He should be suited by this sound surface and, given his connections, will likely know his job on debut. Mission Central raced green when disappointing on his Dundalk introduction but should be capable of better and has been gelded since. Stablemate Controlled is gelded ahead of his debut and is noted along with Watch Tower.

It may be worth forgiving MISSION CENTRAL an unconvincing display when favourite on his debut at Dundalk in April
Class & Speed Card

PROTEST finished fourth in a strong Listed contest at Newbury before making a winning handicap debut at Goodwood. Roger Varian's filly found plenty in the final furlong to win a shade cosily on that occasion and is likely to prove competitive back at this higher level. Never Let Go landed the Sandringham in fine style at Royal Ascot in June and has solid claims, while the unexposed Suite Francaise enters calculations too.

The Verdict comprises the improving 3yos NEVER LET GO, Suite Francaise and Protest in that order of preference.
Class & Speed Card

A 1,000,000 euro purchase at the Arqana May Breeze-up this year, ZANTHOS can go some way to repaying that hefty price tag by scoring on debut for her in-form connections. The booking of Oisin Murphy looks significant and she is preferred to the well-bred Proposal, who may want further in time, as well as Al Qaysiyya, who hails from a yard that has had an excellent record on the July course.

An intriguing maiden in which Al Qaysiyya, Proposal and ZANTHOS stand out on paper. The latter cost a lot as a breezer.
Class & Speed Card

Tim Easterby has landed the two previous renewals of this contest and he could complete a hat-trick courtesy of TOOTSIE. The daughter of Footstepsinthesand has found steady improvement of late and any further progress may well suffice in what looks a moderate event. Tiger Tower is bred to appreciate this longer trip and an opening mark of 50 looks fair, while similar comments apply to Ribchester gelding Ribston Pippin.

Tootsie is a solid candidate but TIGER TOWER represents a stable in form and should be suited by today's step up in distance.
Class & Speed Card

Insanity won this last year for Alan King and is back for more and although the five-year-old can be forgiven his last run, he does have 5lb more to carry in 2025. Dramatic Star is lightly raced and won at Newcastle last October, but the vote goes to CLAYMORE. A former winner at Royal Ascot in the Hampton Court in 2022, he was unlucky in a Racing League contest at Yarmouth last time and the return to 1m4f is certainly in his favour.

Serious candidates abound but DRAMATIC STAR could still have the potential to make this look a very good mark.
Class & Speed Card

JUSTICIAR showed promise on debut here in June and should progress. By Wootton Bassett and out of a Group-placed dam, she finished strongly for third and the winner subsequently landed the Silver Flash Stakes. Albany Stakes fifth Fairy Oak put her experience to good use when beating the reopposing Yellowstone Lake at Leopardstown last month. However, Yellowstone Lake could turn around that form now she's better off at the weights. Saint Agatha also makes some appeal.

Leopardstown second YELLOWSTONE LAKE can reverse form with Fairy Oak. Lookingforarainbow is an interesting debutante
Class & Speed Card

DETAIN finished an excellent third behind Camillle Pissarro in the French Derby before running flat at Royal Ascot in June. A repeat of his Chantilly form would make the son of Wootton Bassett hard to beat and he's taken to show his true colours. Haatem returns to 1m2f with every chance based on his victory in the Wolferton, while Royal Dubai made a winning debut for Owen Burrows at Newbury and could also shape well.

Detain had a major off day at Royal Ascot, so Royal Ascot winner HAATEM looks more solid. Haunted Dream is feared most.
Class & Speed Card

ROYAL VELVET has felt very much at home on both Newmarket tracks this season and a 4lb rise for her most recent success over C&D may prove lenient as she looks to bring up a seventh career success. Former Group 2 winner Jumby ran his best race for some time when third at Haydock last month and he is expected to go well again, along with Sea Baaeed, who steps up in grade on his second run back after wind surgery.

There's nothing not to like about the prospects of Royal Velvet but things might be picking up again for RIGHTHERE RIGHTNOW (nap).
Class & Speed Card

Back from a short absence following wind surgery, ZOU'S YOUR DADDY kept on best of all to score over 7f here last month. George Scott's charge faces a stiffer assignment now sent handicapping, but there should be more to come, especially now upped to the mile. Eeetee was never involved at Pontefract latest but has to be respected having been successful on his last two C&D starts. Paladin is another to consider.

A fine Redcar record makes EEETEE (nap) hard to resist as he bids for a fifth win on this course. Zou's Your Daddy is feared most.
Class & Speed Card

Prince Of India impressed when landing a warm handicap at Newmarket's July Festival and he must be respected, despite an 11lb rise in the handicap, but it is UP THE PACE that shades preference. The Sands Of Mali colt was picked up late on at Newmarket when going in search of a hat-trick. Connections reach for first-time cheekpieces today and further improvement could be forthcoming, especially now he's back sprinting. Others to note include Flash Harry and Marchogion.

Flash Harry is given the benefit of the doubt after showing some wayward tendencies last time but UP THE PACE is firmly on the up.
Class & Speed Card

MY MATE ALFIE is reliable and finished third in this race last year. Beaten half a length by Kind Of Blue (second) in last year's renewal, the selection seemed to progress from that run and can reverse June's C&D form with Vespertilio. Kind Of Blue was slowly away on his June reappearance at Chantilly and then disappointed on the all-weather at Newcastle. A Group 1 winner on testing ground last October, he will be suited to returning to turf but needs to find form. Babouche is another interesting contender.

It may be worth taking a risk with BUCANERO FUERTE who returned from a short spell at stud to win at Naas over 5f in May
Class & Speed Card

ANTELOPE has performed well in higher grade handicaps since landing a double back in May. That brace included a C&D success and Richard Hannon's charge looks worth another chance back at this level. Masterinthewoods has been in fine fettle over 1m4f since finding the selection too good at Leicester and he could have a say in the outcome, while Boston Run gets a change of headgear and is also noted.

This is open. BOSTON RUN should run well if the first-time visor has a similar effect to when he wore cheekpieces for the first time.
Class & Speed Card

Dubawi filly Dance To The Music is the obvious one for Charlie Appleby after winning on the Rowley Mile in May, but she will need a step forward to get the better of SAPPHIRE STEPS. Richard Hannon won this in 2016 and 2017 and introduced his filly at Newbury where she won cosily, with the likelihood of plenty of improvement to come. Keep an eye on Princess Petrol and Venetian Lace too.

None of the six can be dismissed but MIDNIGHT TANGO is a lot better than she was able to show at Ascot. Expect a more patient ride.
Class & Speed Card

Fluorescence is a previous course winner who was far from disgraced when third in a stronger event at Southwell last month. Although considered, it may pay to side with SUGAR HILL BABE. Lisa Williamson's five-year-old ran with credit to finish fourth at Ascot latest and a 2lb ease in the handicap will do her chances no harm. Frank The Spark sports first-time cheekpieces and is another to consider.

Fluorescence is unexposed but a chance is taken on SPORTS COACH who has twice shaped better than the result suggests of late.
Class & Speed Card

Topteam dug in gamely to complete his hat-trick at Thirsk and although a further 4lb rise is unlikely to prevent another big run, preference is for TENABILITY. William Haggas' gelding bolted up at Windsor before defying an opening mark of 81 in fine style over C&D a fortnight ago. The son of Frankel is 7lb higher but he's certain to have more in his locker. Prince Of The Seas struggled in a warm class 2 at Haydock recently but he should appreciate an ease in class, while the application of a first-time tongue-tie could also help.

With several hard to fancy, it's best to stick with TENABILITY and Topteam who bid for three and four wins in a row respectively.
Class & Speed Card

This is a fascinating rematch between Royal Ascot-winning stablemates GSTAAD and True Love, as the pair previously met in a May maiden. Gstaad won that Navan race on his debut run before producing a top class effort to land the Coventry Stakes and marginally gets the vote to confirm himself as the leading juvenile so far. True Love readily landed the Queen Mary at Ascot and effortlessly accounted for stablemate Puerto Rico to win the Railway Stakes. Puerto Rico's subsequent Richmond Stakes form ties in with the selection's form, so a cracking race is in store.

The Coventry Stakes winner GSTAAD may have the resources to confirm Navan form with Queen Mary and Railway Stakes winner \bTrue Love
Class & Speed Card

EXCELLENT BELIEVE failed to land a blow when sixth in Listed company at Chester last month and now makes his handicap debut. Jack Channon's three-year-old is likely to have lots more to offer and he looks the way to go. Catalyse finished fifth at Doncaster on his most recent start and the handicapper may have been kind to drop him 3lb for that. Gorak is another to note.

Handicap debutant EXCELLENT BELIEVE retains potential and gets the vote ahead of Kodi Lion, who holds solid claims.
Class & Speed Card

Wolfpack is improving with experience and won on his last start at Thirsk, but a mark of 83 seems high enough for his handicap debut when you consider the horse he beat by less than two lengths is rated 10lb lower. Abundance is after his hat-trick and looks a player despite an added 5lb, but TRANSPARENT may be the one. Beaten less than a length when third on his first start after being gelded, he looks the best handicapped here with any improvement.

Wolfpack is respected but THE FINGAL RAVEN and Mister Winston rate safer propositions with their solid form in strong handicaps.
Class & Speed Card

BACK TOMORROW bounced back to form when third in a class 6 handicap at Ayr last month and she has an unblemished record in classified company (2-2). With P J McDonald booked, the five-year-old could be tough to beat. Arlington took the silver medal home at Ripon on his latest outing so it would come as no surprise were he to feature. Mission In Malton is also noted.

The vote goes to BACK TOMORROW who already has three successes to her name this year and can gain a first win over the minimum trip.
Class & Speed Card

Kensington Palace heroine Miss Information didn't fare as well at Newmarket next time but she remains of interest back here, as does Urban Lion, who was last seen finishing fifth in the Royal Hunt Cup. However, a chance can be taken on EBT'S GUARD. The four-year-old posted yet another solid display when second in the Golden Mile at Goodwood latest and compensation could await him provided this doesn't come too soon.

Up-and-coming URBAN LION has a big run in him with Hugh Bowman up. Treasure Time and Arisaig can be the main dangers.
Class & Speed Card

Having had valid excuses at Cork last time, course and distance winner KEKE can resume his progress. Sent off favourite at the Munster venue, the Eddie Lynam-trained gelding was denied a clear run over a furlong out, before keeping on late. Successful here on his previous outing, the son of Dandy Man looks to be a progressive young sprinter with more to come. A potentially favourable stands side draw only adds to his chances. Third in that aforementioned Cork race, Cuban Grey also tasted success at this track recently. Despite his career high mark, the Patrick McKenna-trained gelding is thriving at present. Greek Flower certainly has a race of this nature in her at some point.

On the back of a good run in a C&D Group 2 last time, THE HIGHWAY RAT can reverse earlier Rockingham form with Keke
Class & Speed Card

TROPICAL HEAT took a step forward to get off the mark at Sandown last time and may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests that day. With just a 5lb higher rating to contend with and Rossa Ryan booked, she could be the one to beat. Latynina failed to back up her Chester triumph when only fourth at Redcar latest, but she isn't one to write off. Of the remainder, The Sweet Escape makes the most appeal.

Kept to this distance, TROPICAL HEAT (nap) could well show further progress. Latynina is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

BELLATOR BULLET has slowly stepped up in trip in his short career, getting off the mark over this distance at Redcar on his seventh start in May. He followed that with victory at Nottingham before a below-par fourth at Newbury, failing to recover after being hampered. Cheekpieces are added now off the same mark and he may be worth another chance. The Crafty Mole needs producing late but is capable on his day, though the younger Captain Brett may be the bigger danger.

This looks very open. CAPTAIN BRETT has found his level this summer and he might be well suited to today's bigger field.
Class & Speed Card

WADACRE GIORGIO has occupied the runner-up berth at this level on his last two racecourse appearances and is able to compete from an unchanged mark today. Charlie Johnston's four-year-old looks to have found a suitable opportunity to record a first career success. Arie Gordye made a pleasing start for the Roger Fell team when second in a seller at Beverley last month and she must enter calculations returned to further. Spectacular Style should not be overlooked either.

Wadacre Giorgio had BILLY BATHGATE behind in third at Musselburgh but the latter is a C&D winner who can do better back here.
Class & Speed Card

Recent Naas winner MINT MAN can follow up despite his subsequent hike. Unlucky in running when third over the minimum trip here on his previous start, the Pat Murphy-trained gelding coped admirably with the additional furlong when scoring last time. With Rory Mulligan taking over in the saddle, the four-year-old is now effectively only 2lb higher than his latest win. Rappell should prove much more suited to returning to 6f on good ground and looks to have strong claims, provided that his low draw doesn't hinder him. Lightly-raced Navan winner Bundle Of Interest is another that enters calculations.

A wide open handicap in which a bit of value may be had in AVIATRICE back in trip
Class & Speed Card

Night Horn showed more when fourth in a similar contest at Musselburgh last month and he must enter calculations from an unchanged mark. However, it's hard to look past AUTUMN'S BREEZE, who bolted up over the extended 2m here when sporting first-time cheekpieces (retained) recently. If arriving in the same form, a 7lb rise should be no barrier to further success. Fram Castle heads the remainder.

Preference is for NIGHT HORN, who is yet to win but who has put up some of his best efforts at around this trip.
Class & Speed Card

Now that BILLYB has got back to winning ways after a taking performance at York last time out, the six-year-old can follow up off 4lb higher while confidence is high. Padishakh has performed with credit since scoring at Nottingham in May and is expected to be thereabouts, along with Qazaq, who has dropped back to a mark just 1lb higher than his last win.

Back down in class and returned to the scene of his 2yo win, HAWKSBILL is particularly interesting. Hot Cash is second pick.
Class & Speed Card

While not the most consistent, GRANPA GER has plenty of experience and should appreciate a return to quick ground. Filling the runner-up spot for a third time on his penultimate start, he then failed to make an impact on yielding-to-soft at Killarney. Back in maiden company and with Danny Mullins aboard, it would be disappointing were he not involved towards the business end. Astelia and Faithful Follower are the dangers. The former has finished second in his two starts over flights, while a big run can be expected from the latter, who was in contention when falling at the last at Bellewstown latest.

Collared late on by a capable rival when last seen over hurdles, ASTELIA looks the pick of them here
Class & Speed Card

Following a weakening fourth over seven furlongs at Musselburgh latest, Panthere Noir could go well dropping in trip, but the one who caught the eye on debut was BYE LAW. Slowly away at Pontefract and outpaced, he ran on well into fourth once the penny dropped and could be a different proposition now. Beverley fifth Ishimentor is another to take seriously.

Bye Law, Kwidsin and ISHIMENTOR have all shown some promise and the last-named remains capable of much better.
Class & Speed Card

TOKENOMICS can defy top-weight here for the David Marnane stable. Successful on his penultimate outing at Cork, the four-year-old arguably found the ground too quick when disappointing subsequently at Royal Ascot. Undoubtedly better than that latest form suggests, the son of The Grey Gatsby can resume his upward progress. A former course winner, Engines On made a successful debut for trainer John Andrew Kinsella at Leopardstown last month. Having been expected to need that run, the Sioux Nation gelding can take another step forward. Galway runner-up Imposing Supreme should also have his chance off just 1lb higher.

The ground may have been too quick for TOKENOMICS in the Royal Hunt Cup. he could add to a Cork win achieved in adverse circumstances,
Class & Speed Card

VENEZUELAN finished fourth in a class 4 handicap at Ascot last time and is now dropped into a maiden. Ralph Beckett's charge sets the standard with an official rating of 81 and should prove hard to beat. Wise Counsellor finished a creditable third on his handicap bow at Ffos Las in June and has to be respected, while Alibey is another consider.

It may be worth taking a chance with PERFECT SCOUNDREL who showed promise on debut and can be expected to have learnt from it.
Class & Speed Card

DOUBLE PARKED was too free to do himself justice over further at Wolverhampton last time out, but could go well dropping back to 1m having scored over this trip at Redcar on his penultimate outing. Raised 3lb for a comfortable success over shorter at York last month, Chesneys Charm must be a leading contender, as well as Perfidia and Chepstow winner Time After Time.

The vote goes to CHESNEYS CHARM who doesn't look harshly treated from 3lb higher than when beating 15 rivals at York a fortnight ago.
Class & Speed Card

It's difficult to be overly confident about any of these. Without a win in 38 starts under Rules, SURVIVING MURMANSK might finally get his day in the sun. The seven-year-old ran with credit to finish fourth at Cork on Monday and will once again again be ridden by Harry Sexton, who claims a valuable 7lb. Splendid Choice finished just ahead of the selection when they clashed at Wexford last month, and there should be little between the pair again. While both have been disappointing, Half Past Tipsy and Sharetheknowledge warrant respect in a contest of this quality, while others to note include Arthur's Victory and Shane Ryder's Destivelle.

This will not take a lot of winning and HALF PAST TIPSY appears to have found a good opportunity to get off the mark under rules.
Class & Speed Card

Trainer Iain Jardine clearly knows the sort needed to win this having been successful in three of the four runnings and he relies on Zaphea here, though she will need to step up on her latest Musselburgh effort. Ganesha warrants respect, but SIXCOR gets the vote. Three times a C&D winner, twice off higher marks, he races off 1lb lower than his recent Musselburgh third and boasts every chance.

All nine can have a case argued but MARIS ANGEL could be the answer off a reduced mark. Pockley and Tanjen are feared most.
Class & Speed Card

EDERGOLE'S GIFT wore a first-time tongue-tie (retained) when scoring in a class 6 handicap over track and trip in June and provided the four-year-old arrives in similar form, she will be the one to beat. Poet hit the woodwork in a similar contest at Newcastle last month and is likely to be on the premises. Bama Lama is another to watch out for.

The vote goes to EDERGOLE'S GIFT who landed an apprentice handicap over C&D last time and is 1-2 at this level.
Class & Speed Card

Willie Mullins saddles two here, with Paul Townend opting to partner Eclipse Chaser over Moon Mariner. In front when falling two out in a point-to-point at Ballycahane in March of last year, he has been disappointing on both starts under Rules since then. A half-brother to Westerner Lady, who won 10 times for Mullins, he switches to hurdles for the first time and should be able to make an impact in a contest of this quality. With an official rating of 104, KILLIAN'S GARDEN sets the standard. He finished with a flourish when beaten by half-a-length at Ballinrobe last month and back up in trip, he looks the one to beat. A commanding winner of a bumper at Limerick in November, Twentyfourcarrot warrants the utmost respect, having had excuses at Clonmel in February.

it is TWENTYFOURCARROT who gets the nod following his wide margin bumper win and promising hurdling second
Class & Speed Card

Glasses Up loves it here with 11 wins and, although he is now a 10-year-old, he won off his current mark over C&D in May and is hard to ignore. Whatacracker is admirably consistent and must enter calculations, but OBITO could be the one. Upped in trip after his York fourth, he gets a three-year-old allowance which has to be in his favour.

This can go to Irish raider SI SENIOR, who didn't get the breaks at Galway. Sure And Stedfast is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

JUST A GIRL appears to be heading in the right direction on the evidence of last month's solid second over 6f at Ripon. The daughter of Bobby's Kitten gave the impression this extra yardage ought to suit and another good effort looks assured. Lyra Lea could pose a threat if able to build on her recent third at Wolverhampton, while Epsom third Exquisite Skye is another that could improve.

Having improved from her debut to finish second at Ripon, this looks a good opportunity for JUST A GIRL to go one better.
Class & Speed Card

A difficult contest to assess, with question marks hanging over all of these. The Fred Winter winner of 2022, BRAZIL might be able to get his career back on track. He finished a good fifth of 25 in a competitive handicap at the Curragh on Derby weekend and while he has yet to really prove himself over this sort of trip, his class could shine through. Beaten a head in a similar contest at Cork on his penultimate start, Reverend Hubert is the main danger, with Jabbar is another of definite interest. A winner on his debut over flights at Galway in October, he has been campaigned on the level since and now tackles a trip of this magnitude for the first time.

This trip is new territory for JABBAR but he should stay, he's unexposed in this sphere and Jack Kennedy is a notable booking
Class & Speed Card

Thunderstorm Katie struck over track and trip on her latest outing and is just 2lb higher, so she has to be taken seriously. Mersea justified short odds to score at Musselburgh last time and is noted, but ANNIE EDSON TAYLOR gets the vote. The four-year-old only found one too good at Thirsk last month and now sports first-time blinkers, which may eke out the improvement required.

Annie Edson Taylor is high on the list but MERSEA (nap) is a cut above a Class 6 performer and can follow up her Musselburgh win.
Class & Speed Card

Smooth Silesie must shoulder a 5lb penalty having won at Yarmouth recently, while Over Spiced remains a shade high in the weights on the evidence of recent placed efforts. SANDSCREENDELIVERD has yet to open his account, but finished third in a higher grade at Sandown latest, which suggests Peter Crate's charge could launch a strong challenge in these calmer waters. Beaten only a neck over C&D back in May, it might be his turn today.

C&D winners OVER SPICED (nap) and Smooth Silesie like to force it, but the former is in a better position to grab the stands' rail.
Class & Speed Card

PRIDE OF PLACE might still be ahead of the handicapper on a mark of 109. He made the breakthrough at Tipperary on his penultimate start and unseated at the first when bidding to follow-up at Wexford. Riggs and The Little Yank were also last seen at the Bettyville circuit. Both finished second in their respective heats and it would come as no surprise if either manage to go a place better. On target in the corresponding race 12-months ago, Hand Over Fist is now tried in first-time blinkers, while Hardy Diamond (first-time cheekpieces) is another to consider.

HAND OVER FIST (nap) is down in grade, a good claimer takes off 5lb and he can get back on track in the first-time blinkers
Class & Speed Card

The hat-trick seeking Boy Douglas is likely to have his supporters after his success over 7f here latest, but the vote goes to EMPIRESTATEOFMIND. The seven-year-old finished a respectable third at Chester six days ago and made the frame in this grade at Hamilton prior to that. He lurks on an appealing mark and can get back to winning ways. Two B Tanned completes the shortlist.

This might be set up for EPIDAVROS, who hasn't had much luck with one thing and another this season. Boy Douglas is next best.
Class & Speed Card

CHUTI MANIKA has strong claims back on turf having struggled at Wolverhampton last time. The son of Magna Grecia was successful at a higher level than this at Catterick on his penultimate outing and could prove difficult to beat if able to replicate that performance. Alashos has been knocking at the door of late and could be thereabouts, while Comedian Leader, who won over 7f here last Friday should also go well, despite a subsequent 9lb rise.

C&D winner ALASHOS has run well at Doncaster in his last two starts and is taken to make a winning debut for Chris Gordon.
Class & Speed Card

A winner over course and distance last month, the Shane Broderick-trained A WAVE OF THE SEA can follow up. Despite being raised 8lb by the handicapper, the Born To Sea gelding remains nicely treated and ought to go close. Having failed to see out three-miles in recent starts, Slane Hill looks a real contender now dropped in trip. From a chase mark which is 6lb below his current hurdles rating, the Barry Connell-trained gelding catches the eye. Foxy Girl is another worthy of consideration on her handicap debut.

A WAVE OF THE SEA won with authority here last time and he may be able to follow up that confidence boosting victory off 8lb higher
Class & Speed Card

With a record of two wins from four starts at this track, AL MUQDAD should appreciate the return to Scotland and being dropped 1lb for a creditable fourth at Doncaster last month could prove lenient. David O'Meara's charge gets the vote ahead of the capable Native Honey, and Keep Warm, who has been knocking on the door of late. John L Sullivan is noted too.

A C&D record of 3112 and return to form last time secures AL MUQDAD the nod over last year's race fourth John L Sullivan.
Class & Speed Card

The Willie Mullins-trained MOJA DAMA looks the obvious choice. A half-sister to a Flat winner in France, the daughter of Motivator should have the speed for this sharp track. Given her stables excellent record in these races, any market support for the newcomer should be noted. With Andrew Slattery having sent out a handful of really smart bumper winners in recent weeks, his debutant, Not So Serious, is another worth keeping a close eye on. The Declan Queally-trained Kashchei looks best of those that have previously raced under Rules. A son of Telescope, the five-year-old kept on late when sixth at Galway last month.

Those with a run don't set a very high standard so MOJA DAM is given the nod to win on debut for the Mullins team
Class & Speed Card

Runner-up on each of her last two starts, including when narrowly denied at Newcastle last week, SASSY GLORY deserves a change in luck and this represents an ideal opportunity to strike. Satyress wasn't disgraced when fourth on her handicap debut at Nottingham last time out and must enter calculations, along with Dazzling Spirit, who is an intriguing contender sent over from Ireland.

Set his easiest assignment and back at 1m2f, ROYAL BLAZE is taken over relatively in-form duo Sassy Glory and Gemini Man.

This is the 16:15 Kempton race from the video above backed at 28/1 earlier in the day.
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.
