13:38 Killarney 8f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	7 1st (7) (85/40 -42%) Alphecca	2.125 85/40(-42%)	(7) Alphecca 85/40, Ran to form when finishing 3l third in a 7f auction race at Naas last time. Effective over 7f, acts on yielding and good ground, may not stay further, and arrives in fair form. First two runs give her a good form chance and promises to improve for going over 1m.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +56%) Honouramongthieves	4 4/1(+56%)	(4) Honouramongthieves 4/1, Improved from debut when beaten 7l in a 7f auction race at Galway last time. Ridden by a leading course jockey and returning from a short break. Effective over 7f on soft ground but needs to find more to get off the mark. Beaten in the region of 7l in maidens over a bit shorter at Roscommon and Galway.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/2 +50%) Just A City Boy	5.5 11/2(+50%)	(5) Just A City Boy 11/2, Improved for debut experience when comfortably held in a 7f maiden at Listowel last time. Blinkers are fitted for the first time. Represents a top course trainer, effective over 6–7f, and continues to progress for a strong yard. Steps up to 1m with blinkers added but handicaps will provide better opportunities.
4	9 4th (9) (11/4 -22%) Sherekiya	2.75 11/4(-22%)	(9) Sherekiya 11/4, Improved from debut when beaten 3 1/4l in a maiden at Gowran Park last time. Effective at 1m, handles heavy and good ground, from a good yard, progressing, and may stay a little further with experience. Ran a bit better second time out at Gowran (1m, heavy) and found a weak maiden here.
5th	6 5th (6) (12/1 -100%) Noodles	12 12/1(-100%)	(6) Noodles 12/1, Found the company too strong when down the field in a 6f auction race at The Curragh last time. Consistent to date over 5–6f and effective on soft and good ground. Hasn't kicked on from debut run; still has form claims, albeit with stamina to prove.
6th	3 6th (3) (9/1 -20%) Hanak	9 9/1(-20%)	(3) Hanak 9/1, Stable won this last year; ran to form when comfortably held in a maiden at Galway last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time. Effective at 1m on good and yielding ground and has shown consistency in a short career. Blinkers now fitted and this looks a weaker race than the ones he's contested to date.
7th	2 7th (2) (300/1 -140%) Doitforjill Ronnie	300 300/1(-140%)	(2) Doitforjill Ronnie 300/1, Showed improvement from debut when finishing down the field in a 7f maiden at Listowel last time. Effective over 7f and may stay 1m; handles soft ground and looks one for handicaps. Beaten 32l (6f) and 17l (7f) in his first two runs and can't be seriously considered here.
8th	1 8th (1) (18/1 +64%) Accelereight	18 18/1(+64%)	(1) Accelereight 18/1, Stable won this last year; was green and failed to travel when unsuited by the drop in trip, finishing down the field in a 7f maiden at Gowran Park last time. Effective at 1m, handles ease in the ground, and needs another run for a mark. Made a low-key start in maidens at Leopardstown (1m) and Gowran (7f).

ALPHECCA displayed ability when fifth on debut at Tipperary and then third at Naas. That latest outing confirmed she can handle plenty of cut in the ground and, granted further improvement, she could get off the mark. Hanak's stable won this race last year and he showed more in his last couple of starts in Galway. He was well supported ahead of his fifth in Ballybrit last month and now gets first-time blinkers. Sherekiya has been backed on both outings and the suspicion is that there is more to come from her. Joseph O'Brien's Just A City Boy is another with blinkers tried, while Colin Keane is an eyecatching booking for Honouramongthieves.

A modest maiden. ALPHECCA might be the answer as her form is right up there and she promises to be well suited by today's 1m.

13:50 Tipperary 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	6 1st (6) (15/8 +17%) Getaway Beo	1.875 15/8(+17%)	(6) Getaway Beo 15/8, Getaway mare, half-sister to Mack The Man, very useful at 15f. Represents a top trainer. Half-sister to seven-time winner Mack The Man, potentially interesting in a modest race.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/4 +84%) Clarnagh Maid	2.25 9/4(+84%)	(4) Clarnagh Maid 9/4, Below bumper form when stepped up in trip on hurdle debut, finishing down the field in a 2m4f maiden at Roscommon. Effective at 2m and acts on good ground; bumper form has been franked but must leave hurdle debut run behind. Two satisfactory runs in bumpers before moderate hurdles run, Jack Kennedy on Getaway Beo.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/2 +39%) La Dame Blanche	5.5 11/2(+39%)	(2) La Dame Blanche 11/2, Helped set it up for closers when well beaten in a 12f handicap at Tramore last time. Off a short break; multiple flat winner over middle distances but out of form. Needs to bounce back on hurdle debut. Three-time Flat winner during her time with her two previous trainers, seems regressive.
4	7 4th (7) (66/1 0%) Queen's Meadow	66 66/1(0%)	(7) Queen's Meadow 66/1, Unseated rider in a maiden hurdle at Listowel last time. Yet to show anything from 2m to 3m and looks one for low-grade handicaps at best. Down the field in two completed maiden outings, unseated rider at Listowel.
5th	3 5th (3) (16/1 +60%) B Da Powders	16 16/1(+60%)	(3) B Da Powders 16/1, Green and never threatened when well beaten on debut in a 2m3f maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan, her only start. Likely to need a much longer trip than 2m. Fair pedigree, showed nothing when 50-1 on debut in a maiden hurdle at Kilbeggan in April.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/2 +8%) Crystal Supreme	5.5 11/2(+8%)	(9) Crystal Supreme 11/2, Crystal Ocean filly, half-sister to Mashalla Habibi who was useful at 21f; yard in good form and can get the odd first time out winner; of interest Dam won over fences, from a respected yard; accomplished 7lb claimer aboard.
7th	10 7th (10) (80/1 -142%) Nunya	80 80/1(-142%)	(10) Nunya 80/1, 8,500 euros Malinas filly, half-sister to Dreams Of Milan who was fair at 23f; likely to need this expereince. Eighth foal; half-sister to three jumps winners, plenty of stamina in the pedigree..
8	8 \|F\| (8) (12/1 -9%) Cockney Cleopatra	12 12/1(-9%)	(8) Cockney Cleopatra 12/1, £20,000 Affinisea filly, half-sister to Sleepy Haven who was smart at 16f. Dam was poor at 7f as a 2yo. Looks an unlikely winner on debut. Half-sister to five winners including four-time hurdles scorer Sleepy Haven, in good hands.

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

In a weak maiden, a chance is taken with hurdling debutant LA DAME BLANCHE. The daughter of Fast Company is a three-time Flat winner and ran well in a strong contest at Ballinrobe in July. A decent round of jumping can see her go close. Flashaway had good bumper form for Willie Mullins last year and ran respectably in a much better maiden than this on her hurdling and stable debut, but she has been off eight months. The homebred Getaway Beo is related to winners, including a seven-time hurdles winner, and Jack Kennedy rides her in preference to stablemate Clarnagh Maid, who was soundly beaten on her jumping bow.

It is hard to know what to expect from FLASHAWAY, but it may be worth gambling that she can reproduce her bumper-winning form

13:50 Tipperary 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION

13:58 Pontefract (Class 5) 6f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (9/2 -29%) Calafiori	4.5 9/2(-29%)	(2) Calafiori 9/2, Well backed and ran to form when beaten 2/4l off 72 over 5f at Bath last time. Ridden by a top course jockey and effective over 5/6f on any surface. Looks on a competitive mark. Successful in maiden on penultimate start but rather a frustrating sort otherwise.
2	9 2nd (9) (12/1 -71%) Gunalt Wavelength	12 12/1(-71%)	(9) Gunalt Wavelength 12/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 60 over 7f at Chester last time. Effective over 7f and acts on good to soft ground. A consistent sort. Form since handicapping includes a close second and creditable fourth, both over 7f.
3	8 3rd (8) (40/1 -43%) Crystal Aurora	40 40/1(-43%)	(8) Crystal Aurora 40/1, Produced a modest effort when dropped in trip on handicap debut, beaten 9/2l in a nursery here last time. Returns from a short break. Only worthwhile form has come over 7f on good ground and has plenty to prove after her last two runs. Always behind in C&D nursery when last seen three months ago.
4	5 4th (5) (8/1 -23%) Empress Olivia	8 8/1(-23%)	(5) Empress Olivia 8/1, Showed her ability on handicap debut when beaten 4l in a nursery at Redcar last time. Effective over 6f and acts on good to soft and good ground. Official mark appears about right. Ran respectably in similar event at Redcar, albeit without strictly building on Ripon win.
5th	10 5th (10) (16/1 -33%) Hares Bredth	16 16/1(-33%)	(10) Hares Bredth 16/1, Matched earlier form when beaten 8l in a novice over 5f at Redcar last time. From a top course trainer and wears a first-time tongue-tie. Effective at 6f on good ground but his form remains unreliable and difficult to assess. May be capable of improvement now handicapping in first-time tongue-tie.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/2 +31%) Dacres Cross	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(1) Dacres Cross 9/2, The yard has won two of the last five runnings of this race. Scored by 1/4l off 70 at Carlisle three starts back but made too much use of last time. Effective over 5/6f on a sound surface and possibly not the most resolute. Off the mark in Carlisle nursery in August; stiffer tasks since; returns to calmer waters.
7th	3 7th (3) (13/2 +28%) Ubetterseethis	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(3) Ubetterseethis 13/2, Scored by a neck off 71 over 7f at Chester in August but didn't act on soft ground last time. Has a wide draw and is suited by 7f, though may handle shorter on a sound surface. Workable mark if coping with drop in trip. Tad exposed but gained his only win off this mark in sole attempt in Class 5 nursery.
8th	7 8th (7) (12/1 +40%) Mister Moet	12 12/1(+40%)	(7) Mister Moet 12/1, Replicated his nursery debut form when beaten 6l over 7f at Haydock last time. Cheekpieces go on for the first time. Effective at 6f and acts on good to soft and good to firm ground. Can race too keenly and has shown erratic form. Has failed to back up the form of his success; change of headgear needs to help.
9th	6 9th (6) (7/2 +30%) Sporting Light	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(6) Sporting Light 7/2, The yard won this race last year. Scored by 3/4l off 66 over 7f at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start and ran close to form when not quite lasting home over 7f last time. Wide draw but consistent and effective over 6/7f on any surface. Had an excuse last time; largely consistent otherwise and looks reasonably solid.
10th	4 10th (4) (8/1 -78%) Ryefield	8 8/1(-78%)	(4) Ryefield 8/1, Produced his best effort when second, beaten 2/2l in a maiden here last time. Drawn wide but effective over 6f and acts on good to soft ground. Opening mark looks fair, though the form is open to interpretation. Gelded prior to showing improvement in C&D maiden last time on stable debut; possibilities.

UBETTERSEETHIS faced a stiff test in a class 2 event at Ayr last month and could take advantage of a significant drop in class. Still unexposed over this trip, the forecast going could help to bring his proven stamina into play. Empress Olivia's form has a solid profile and is a potential improver on just her second start in a nursery. The consistent Calafiori and handicap debutant Ryefield also command respect.

Provided his C&D maiden effort is backed up, RYEFIELD may be the answer. Solid Sporting Light is second choice.

14:05 Stratford (Class 4) 22f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (11/4 -22%) Serious Chat	2.75 11/4(-22%)	(1) Serious Chat 11/4, Well backed and ran to form when beaten a neck off a mark of 112 over 3m1f at Warwick last time where given poor ride. Returning from a break and looks the pick on race times. Absent since defeat at skinny odds in May but was a good winner on penultimate outing.
2	3 2nd (3) (3/1 +33%) Baltray	3 3/1(+33%)	(3) Baltray 3/1, Below form when stepped up in trip, found little and was comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time. Trainer in form and usually held up; off a short break and remains a threat. Both runs this season were just respectable; needs to up his game.
3	2 3rd (2) (7/4 +7%) Betty's Tiara	1.75 7/4(+7%)	(2) Betty's Tiara 7/4, Ran to form when winning a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter over 2m7f by 3l last time. Effective from 2½m to 3m and acts on any ground; consistent and may have a bit more to offer but needs to show it off this mark. Maiden winner last month, her 12th hurdling start; back in a handicap today.
4	5 4th (5) (12/1 +0%) Roxboro River	12 12/1(+0%)	(5) Roxboro River 12/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase over 3m at Uttoxeter last time and looks on a stiff mark. Surprise C&D winner in July but quickly back in the doldrums since; hard to predict.
5th	6 5th (6) (22/1 +33%) Floating Rock	22 22/1(+33%)	(6) Floating Rock 22/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase over 2m1f at Worcester last time. Blinkers go on for the first time; looks regressive. Pulled up on last two outings and remains without a win since 2022.
6th	4 6th (4) (11/2 +15%) Juan Bermudez	5.5 11/2(+15%)	(4) Juan Bermudez 11/2, Made too much use of up in trip and failed to get home when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Uttoxeter most recently. Goes well at this venue. Enjoys making the running and looks the pick on balance of form. 7l course winner in June; returned with heavy defeat last month; can rebound.

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

Consistency paid off for BETTY'S TIARA when getting off the mark at Uttoxeter last time out, and a mark of 110 could prove to be lenient. Ben Pauling's charge is narrowly preferred to Serious Chat, who is somewhat unlucky not to be arriving here on a hat-trick after being narrowly denied over 3m1f at Warwick in May. Baltray has been well fancied in recent starts without showing much, and it could pay to keep the faith.

Recent maiden winner Betty's Tiara probably won't be far away but three-time course winner JUAN BERMUDEZ might be the answer.

Info	Form	Odds
1	8 1st (8) (2/9 +50%) Lady Lilac	0.222222 2/9(+50%)	(8) Lady Lilac 2/9, Finished second, beaten a neck, in a Listowel maiden last time; effective from 1m to 9f and acts on heavy and good ground; consistent and has shown enough to win a maiden, though can be a little frustrating. Now 0-8 but she's consistent and ran up to best when just missing out over 1m at Listowel.
2	3 2nd (3) (25/1 +50%) Green Kite	25 25/1(+50%)	(3) Green Kite 25/1, Improved from debut when finishing down the field stepped up in trip in a Listowel maiden last time; though pedigree suggests speed, has shown effectiveness at 1m and with cut; likely to require more time. Well behind Lady Lilac at Listowel a fortnight ago when sent off at 500-1.
3	6 3rd (6) (10/3 -48%) Sigliosa	3.333333 10/3(-48%)	(6) Sigliosa 10/3, Ran to form when beaten 7 1/2l in a 9f Leopardstown maiden last time; now back from a short break with a top course jockey booked; effective from 9f to 11f and acts on soft and good ground; remains in good form. Best run was over an extended 1m3f here but still strong claims even at this trip.
4	2 4th (2) (25/1 +38%) Galley Point	25 25/1(+38%)	(2) Galley Point 25/1, Travelled well but found little, running prominently for a long way before finishing well beaten in a 9f auction race at Punchestown on debut; acts on good ground and may improve slightly dropped back in trip. 66-1 at Punchestown (1m1f, good to yielding) and ran accordingly, finishing eighth of 14.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 +57%) Radient Man	12 12/1(+57%)	(5) Radient Man 12/1, Showed only modest form when well beaten in a 6f maiden at The Curragh on debut; returns from a break and looks more likely to need further than the bare 6f. 80-1 and beaten 14l in a 6f good-ground maiden at the Curragh three months ago.
6th	4 6th (4) (100/1 -52%) Pure Granite	100 100/1(-52%)	(4) Pure Granite 100/1, Finished down the field in a 7f Gowran Park maiden last time but was caught a little wide and at least revealed his level; returns from a long absence and remains modest. Down the field in maidens at about 7f and those were in the middle of 2024; all to prove.
7th	1 7th (1) (28/1 -75%) Petrol Head	28 28/1(-75%)	(1) Petrol Head 28/1, Probably needed the run on stable debut when down the field in a 2m handicap hurdle at Kelso last time; had been in good form prior; faces a stiff task here. Has improved over hurdles since last seen on the Flat; 1m looks too sharp, though.
8th	7 8th (7) (50/1 +38%) Eliza Garfield	50 50/1(+38%)	(7) Eliza Garfield 50/1, Ran to form though well beaten in a maiden at Navan last time; effective at 1m on good ground; still looks likely to require more time. Insufficient promise in 1m maidens at Naas and Navan to believe she can win a maiden.

This looks a good opportunity for the 78-rated LADY LILAC. The Inns Of Court filly has been placed in five of her eight contests and ran her best race to date when pipped by a neck in second on heavy ground at Listowel last month. Sigliosa is rated 3lb inferior to Lady Lilac and takes a drop in trip after four outings that yielded a best finish of third at this venue in July. Petrol Head has enjoyed several memorable days over hurdles, but would prefer better ground and although this isn't a deep race, he is coming off a break on his first start for a new stable. A market check is advised.

Unless any of the others can show significant improvement this should rest between LADY LILAC and Sigliosa.

1	1 1st (1) (1/3 +63%) Mcmurray		0.333333 1/3(+63%)																															(1) Mcmurray 1/3, Showed determination weaving through traffic to land a Doncaster handicap by a neck off 83 last time. Ridden by a top course jockey. Effective over 7f and 8f, handles good to soft and good to firm. Likeable attitude with more to offer. Building a solid profile and only 4lb higher than for narrow nursery win at Doncaster.
2	3 2nd (3) (11/5 +0%) Flash Of Fire		2.2 11/5(+0%)																															(3) Flash Of Fire 11/5, Finished strongly under a considerate ride when fourth, beaten 3 1/2l in a 7f Kempton novice last time. Effective over 7f and likely to stay 1m. Well bred, powerful filly of quality who is clearly well regarded and open to further progress. Two good runs; probably on a very fair mark and looks more than ready for this longer trip.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,

MCMURRAY ran behind the classy A Bit Of Spirit on his first couple of appearances and gets the vote after supplementing his breakthrough triumph when making a successful handicap debut on good to soft at Doncaster. He is progressive and should be able to concede weight to Flash Of Fire, who looked ready for the step up in trip when fourth over 7f at Kempton.

McMurray is hard to knock but FLASH OF FIRE brings plenty of potential now raised to a mile and she edges preference.

Effective from 9f to 10f and consistent on the Flat. An interesting recruit to hurdles. 0-10 and rated 76 on the Flat, sire has produced a few wining hurdlers, could go well.

LETOS had smart form over hurdles and fences in France and sets the standard with a rating of 120. He seemed to run close to that mark when second in a 24-runner maiden at Fairyhouse in April. Having travelled well over a longer trip on that occasion, dropping back to 2m can see him get his head in front. He was taken out due to soft ground last week, but conditions should be better here. Ace Brannigan, a half-brother to Grade 1 winner Captain Teague, went close in a point-to-point and now starts off over hurdles. A useful maiden handicapper on the Flat, Molto Amichi is another hurdling debutant to note.

A modest affair and if LETOS can reproduce the form he showed when last seen at Fairyhouse he can take this

Effective at 6f, needs a stiff test at 5f, but has very little measurable turf form. Raced mainly on AW but has frame possibilities if proving as effective back on turf.

Top course jockey; effective at 5f or 6f, acts on any ground, looks on a workable mark. Solid second at Ripon most recently; major player if coping with drop back to 5f.

Top course trainer; wide draw; suited by 6f, acts on a sound surface; mark looks slightly high. Shapes as if this drop in trip will suit; bred to do better still; interesting.
12th	9 12th (9) (28/1 -180%) Solar Biricz	28 28/1(-180%)	(9) Solar Biricz 28/1, A bit below form on soft ground when beaten 3l off 60 at Doncaster last time. Has a wide draw; effective at 5f and may need a sound surface. Won off current mark at Doncaster in June; fighting chance on that form.

FLOWSTATE is versatile regarding ground and appeals strongly after a good second to a resurgent opponent at Ripon. Without Flaw is effective on a stiff course and can go well with conditions to suit. Hyperfocus also handles give underfoot and the veteran could be the pick of Tim Easterby's pair, running off 20lb below his last winning mark. Last-start Nottingham winner Toptime completes the shortlist.

Dropped in class with Jack Callan taking off a useful 5lb, the generally consistent LUCIUS AURELIUS may be able to open his account.

Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and well treated if turned out quickly. Drew well clear of the others with warm favourite when winning at Sedgefield last Tuesday.

JUST CHASING MAY continues to go from strength to strength as he switches between codes and a 10lb rise for his debut success over fences at Worcester in August looks manageable for the son of Isfahan. Turned out again quickly under a 7lb penalty after scoring at Sedgefield last week, Aslukwoodhavit must be a key player on the rise in distance, while Sherborne arrives on the back of a second wind surgery but has won on two of his last four outings.

Aslukwoodhavit is not opposed lightly but JUST CHASING MAY created a very good impression on his chasing debut in August.

Effective from 7f to 8f and acts on soft or good ground. Current mark looks about right. C&D winner off 5lb lower in the summer; revival possible back on slower ground.

From a top course trainer; effective from 6f to 7f, acts on yielding and good to firm ground. Bred to improve over slightly further. Unlucky not to be closer on handicap debut and should stay this longer trip.

Bolted up in the new tongue-tie last Wednesday; well in under a penalty if as good again.
4	5 4th (5) (7/2 +30%) Justenzia	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(5) Justenzia 7/2, Won by 1 1/4l off a mark of 59 over 10f at Clonmel on her penultimate start. Slipped up when under pressure in a handicap last time. Effective from 10f to 12f, though breeding suggests she may not want shorter. Won at Clonmel before coming down two weeks ago; good chance if confidence okay.
5th	7 5th (7) (40/1 -186%) Obscenity	40 40/1(-186%)	(7) Obscenity 40/1, Improved on his final qualifying run when well beaten in a 7f maiden at Down Royal last time.

7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 -17%) Casheldale Lass	14 14/1(-17%)	(9) Casheldale Lass 14/1, Ran to form when flattening out late on testing ground, beaten 5l in an 11f handicap at Listowel last time. Previously in good form; effective over 10f and acts on heavy or good ground. Steadily progressive. Remains to be seen if she wants this ground and might be on a tough mark anyway.

Beaten in a seller on final run for previous yard; quiet in two handicaps for this one.

RIBEE hacked up by six lengths on soft ground at Bellewstown last week and ought to go well again under the 7lb penalty, with the tongue-strap retained. He is due to encounter similar conditions and remains in the same '70' grade. Spanish Temptress won over C&D in July and although she hasn't troubled the judge since then, a return to Killarney on this ground could spark improvement. Justenzia enjoyed plenty of cut when delivering over further at Clonmel last month, which brings her into the equation. Skippinandajumpin looks the pick of Joseph O'Brien's trio, while Casheldale Lass shouldn't be ruled out.

If RIBEE (nap) is in the same form as when bolting up last week at Bellewstown then a penalty might not stop him.

7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 +45%) Resalah	6 6/1(+45%)	(4) Resalah 6/1, Ran to a similar level to her handicap debut when beaten 5l in a Newbury nursery last time. Cheekpieces applied for the first time; probably stays 7f and acts on soft and good ground, though her mark may be stiff. Novice runs were half promising but hasn't had any impact in two nurseries; tries headgear.

Wears a hood for the first time with a significant jockey booking. By a sprinting sire, dam stayed 10f, and action suggests ease in the ground will suit; showed minor promise over 7f on fast ground second start. Disappointing should she not show a bit more now into nurseries with a hood added.

PIMENTEL was able to open her account in a similar event at Brighton a week ago. First-time cheekpieces appeared to be instrumental in that more accomplished performance and the daughter of Pinatubo could be one to follow in the retained headgear, despite the 6lb penalty. Lexington Express has proven consistent in defeat so far and returning to 7f could be worth exploring. Nursery debutants Lapidarist and Inclusive are others to keep an eye on in the betting.

An open-looking nursery. A chance is taken on BORN TO BRIGHT who has done her qualifying at top tracks.

A Flat winner at this course, SCEPTRED ISLE struck for the first time over hurdles at Navan and can follow up off a 7lb higher mark. Danny Gilligan again takes the mount and the eight-year-old still looks well handicapped compared to her mark on the level. She goes well on easy ground and dropping back from 2m3f isn't a major concern. She was in good form last autumn and this might be her time of year. Volez Vous is on a hat-trick after wins at Clonmel, but hasn't been seen since March. Romella hit the crossbar over fences at Clonmel last week, but is rated higher in this sphere.

A 7lb rise and a shorter trip may not be enough to prevent SCEPTRED ISLE (nap) from following up an emphatic Navan win gained over 2m3f

HELL YEAH HE DID's second to an 88-rated opponent at Salisbury reads well and the son of Zarak is an attractive proposition now he steps up in distance. Rain shouldn't be much of an issue and another bold showing looks likely in a field of this size. Goodwood maiden winner Lopeo commands respect, although a penalty demands more of him. With that in mind, Galilean Quality could be a bigger danger if his stamina holds out now stepping up from 7f.

Being a strong form contender who represents last year's winning yard, HELL YEAH HE DID is preferred. Lopeo is the chief danger.

STARDROP shaped with promise when second on his hurdling debut behind a more experienced rival at Market Rasen. With improvement expected from that contest, he can see off hurdling newcomer Africa Charm, who has shown some promise on the Flat. Not beaten far on his first start for new connections on the level recently, No Release is another to monitor for market support.

He needs to learn to settle much better if he is to achieve his full potential over hurdles but STARDROP is the one to beat here.

Effective at 10f and may get a bit further, but looks exposed. The odd fair run in handicaps but not progressing and her mark has bottomed out.

On a long losing run but the handicapper has relented. None of his 74 races have been over this far but it was a good run over 7f last time.

Effective at 8-10f and suited by testing ground. Inconsistent veteran who has slipped to an attractive mark. Loves the mud and was bang there at Gowran 16 days ago; every chance.
9th	5 9th (5) (9/1 -38%) Carvalhal	9 9/1(-38%)	(5) Carvalhal 9/1, Looked in need of a slightly stiffer test when beaten 5l in a handicap at Bellewstown last time.

Pedigree suggests sprint trips will suit but no further, and yet to show much. No wins in six and not progressing by the looks of it; headgear did nothing last time.

Effective at 1m but yet to build on promising debut, with slow starts an issue. Looks limited and has offered pretty much zilch in two handicaps over slightly shorter.

14th	4 14th (4) (33/1 +0%) Wrist Art	33 33/1(+0%)	(4) Wrist Art 33/1, Unsuited by the way the race developed when down the field in a handicap at Gowran Park last time. Suited by 1m with cut but out of form this year. Only 2-32; plenty of good runs in defeat but not this season and best watched for now.
15th	12 15th (12) (9/2 +68%) Drish Melody	4.5 9/2(+68%)	(12) Drish Melody 9/2, Did not find much when down the field in a handicap at Bellewstown most recent. Effective at 1m with give. Well backed for return but needs to prove ability remains after layoff. C&D winner in 2022; first run back from a long absence was much better than the second.

STARTING MONDAY dropped a fair way in the weights and responded with a decent third at Gowran Park. That form received a healthy boost when the winner followed up in a higher grade at the Curragh on Saturday. Vierson has to rate a danger after finishing third in Cork last week. She has been placed in three of her last five races, so wouldn't be winning out of turn. Wasittheway and Carvalhal are two who should be pitching for a cheque, while there are trip concerns for Half Nutz, despite an appealing mark.

If STARTING MONDAY is to win again it will probably be under these conditions and he knocked on the door last time at Gowran.

SACRED GROUND, who cost 550,000gns, boasts an appealing pedigree and is a tempting proposition ahead of her racecourse bow. A daughter of Kingman out of Oaks winner Anapurna, there is an awful lot to like and market support could be highly significant. Bintsaleh, a 925,000gns yearling, is similarly appealing and must be taken seriously given the hefty price tag. Lyrics Of Life sets the form standard and commands respect following a brace of second-placed finishes at Newmarket and Haydock.

There are some interesting newcomers but LYRICS OF LIFE sets a fairly useful standard and ought to put her experience to good use.

Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and suited by softer ground; in good form until latest. Showed ability last season, unfancied at Listowel and ran accordingly, capable of better.

Effective from 2 1/2 to 3m and acts on good ground; should be winning soon. Solid placed form, clear of third-placed Long Branch at Kilbeggan, should be hard to beat.

Wears a tongue-tie for the first time and looks one for the future. Struggled on debut at Limerick in April, same story at Listowel, tried with a tongue-tie.

KING JON OLIVER ran poorly in a bumper on his second start, but makes plenty of appeal on the promise shown when third in a maiden hurdle at Naas in April. The French-bred was quietly fancied ahead of that debut effort in what was a better race than this. The fourth at Naas went close in a maiden last week and this longer trip should suit the selection, whose dam is a half-sister to Grand National third Gaillard Du Mesnil. Placed over 3m on his hurdling debut, Itsallinthegenes was then well ahead of Long Branch when narrowly beaten over this sort of trip at Kilbeggan. He can confirm the form, although the latter should improve for that outing.

Last month's Kilbeggan second confirmed the improvement shown by ITSALLINTHEGENES at Cork in July. He may go one better now.

Wears cheekpieces for the first time and is ridden by a top course jockey. Effective over 6–7f, prefers some give, untested on fast ground, in form and well handicapped.

FINE INTERVIEW has the burden of top weight, but conditions look ideal for the son of Havana Grey. His three victories have all been over this trip on soft ground, with one over C&D, so he ticks a lot of boxes and although only third over 7f at Ascot last month, connections try cheekpieces to help him focus. Keep Warm has won three times over track and trip and warrants respect, as does Thunder Blue, who arrives in good form and will have no issues with the ground.

Useful FINE INTERVIEW is 1-1 at Pontefract and could well defy top weight back here. Irish Nectar is second pick.

After displaying clear promise on his hurdling debut in August, MR MCLOUGHLAN was able to step forward and score at Worcester next time. Jack Jones' gelding must now shoulder a penalty but with further improvement likely, he could follow up. However, the same can be said for Soul Limbo, who won on the Flat most recently having been successful over timber when last in this sphere. Test The Market made a pleasing stable debut over C&D last month and appeals most of the remainder.

The suggestion is TEST THE MARKET, who ran well in defeat behind a next-time-out winner over C&D on last month's stable/hurdle debut.

The Jessica Harrington-trained MARAZION has shown enough in five starts to suggest she can win here. Following two promising runs as a juvenile, the daughter of Sea The Stars finished third on her first two outings as a three-year-old. Despite failing to build on those performances at Leopardstown, she may have found 1m5f beyond her and, back over a more suitable distance, the 82-rated filly sets a fair standard. First-time cheekpieces could well bring about the desired improvement in Gifted. Aidan O'Brien's representative threw away her chance when hanging left at Galway last month. A place further back in that race, Forthill is entitled to be all the better for her debut run.

FORTHILL seemed to handle soft ground at Galway and she is open to plenty of improvement on her second start

A promising third in behind a subsequent Listed winner on her debut before scoring in taking fashion at Lingfield last time out, DREAMASAR can go in again. The Masar filly is related to a couple of Group-winners, and that may be a route she goes down in time. Arriving with similar claims following a comfortable victory at Kempton, Bella's Path can give the selection the most to think about, while well-related newcomer Blue Nazare could also figure.

Blue Nazare is feared but DREAMASAR is a half-sister to Group 1 winner Dreamloper and she looks to have a bright future herself.

An impressive winner on his chasing debut at Downpatrick last month, MICKEY COHEN can follow up. The Noel Meade-trained four-year-old reached the frame on three occasions over flights before making the breakthrough over fences and, reverting to hurdling, this looks a nice opportunity for him to add to recent gains. Runner-up on her latest two outings, lightly-raced mare Time In A Bottle has shown enough to suggest she has races in her, and stepping up in trip could unlock further improvement in the five-year-old. Cullig is another with solid claims, particularly if the ground eases.

JETAWAY NANA was going ok when brought down three out at Listowel and she may yet have some wriggle room off this mark

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

Jam Lass showed improvement on her first start for Peter Niven when second here and could go well on her handicap debut off a mark of 60. ARKENSTAAR looks the more sensible option, despite a 5lb penalty for last week's success on a similar surface, and he could win for the eighth time if he can repeat that away from his beloved Hamilton. Tele Red is also hard to ignore after his Haydock second, with the softer ground sure to suit.

Unexposed SUSIE SIOUX is threatening to win a turf contest and she is first choice ahead of Thanks Angel.

An eyecatcher when running on well for third over C&D last time out, LE PELERIN remains on the same mark and he is taken to break the maiden at the eighth time of asking. A winner of two of his last three starts, including by 16 lengths at Ffos Las recently, the penalised Zambezi Magic must enter calculations on the switch to the all-weather. The in-form Volto Di Medusa may improve for this distance having been second over shorter here last month.

This can go to VOLTO DI MEDUSA, whose latest second here (Bass Player back in fifth) has been well advertised since.

It looks best to side with FOURTOWNS, who was said to have benefitted from a more patient ride when on target at Fontwell a fortnight ago. The Affinisea gelding remains competitively treated from 4lb higher and should this play out similarly, further success could await. The Expensive One goes handicapping having posted a creditable second at Worcester last month so is entitled to plenty of respect, while Renoir might fare better down in class, having struggled in a class 3 at Plumpton recently.

A 4lb rise could turn out to be lenient on FOURTOWNS (nap), who made stylish headway before asserting at Fontwell a fortnight ago

A winner at the Galway Festival, the Dermot Weld-trained TILANI can record a second career success. The form of that race received a boost when the runner-up went on to score at Listowel last month. For his part, Tilani looked very unlucky before staying on to finish sixth in a big field at the Curragh recently. In a race of this nature, the booking of promising British apprentice Jack Dace certainly catches the eye. Sayidah New Bay should appreciate stepping back up in trip after keeping on nicely to finish fifth at Gowran. Chica Guerrera has every chance of gaining compensation, having been brought down at Listowel on her latest outing.

SAYIDAH NEW BAY may be able to make an impact off this mark on handicap debut after an encouraging run at Gowran 16 days ago

PERGOLA might not be the most consistent, but she improved for a return to further when second at Windsor last time out. She will need to prove herself on differing ground conditions but, if doing so, she could be the answer from an unchanged mark. A determined winner on heavy ground at the same venue last month, Furhaan is entitled to be thereabouts again off 3lb higher, while the same could be said for Without Burlington, who was raised 5lb for an easy Wolverhampton success in August.

The suggestion is FURHAAN who came near last to first when winning at Windsor and he may have got off lightly with just a 3lb nudge.

Had been in good form previously and returns from a short break. Flopped at Kilbeggan in July, good chance on previous runs at Tipperary and Punchestown.
3	1 3rd (1) (16/1 +20%) The Little Yank	16 16/1(+20%)	(1) The Little Yank 16/1, Never threatened and was comfortably held in a handicap chase over 3m2f at Sligo last time. Usually held up and effective at 3m, he wants decent ground and is well treated on old hurdle and chase form, remaining competitive. Being kept busy as usual, out of the money in a chase last week, others more reliable.
4	6 4th (6) (6/1 +40%) Pebble Bleu	6 6/1(+40%)	(6) Pebble Bleu 6/1, Fell in a handicap chase at Galway last time and is worth another chance as mark looks generous on efforts over fences. Chase winner, decent form in that sphere in the first half of the year, not badly treated.
5th	18 5th (18) (28/1 -12%) Glaoinn An Airgead	28 28/1(-12%)	(18) Glaoinn An Airgead 28/1, Outpaced and probably unsuited by the drop in trip when down the field in a 2m3f handicap hurdle at Navan last time. Trainer in form, usually held up and effective at 3m. 12 starts over hurdles, never in the first four, two fair runs before poor effort at Navan.
6th	5 6th (5) (50/1 -25%) Mountrivers Lass	50 50/1(-25%)	(5) Mountrivers Lass 50/1, Outpaced and probably unsuited by the drop in trip when finishing down the field in a 2m2f handicap hurdle at Listowel last time. Effective at 2m4f on soft or good ground but looks limited. Weak form in maiden hurdles, 40-1 when down the field at Listowel in her first handicap.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/1 -83%) Barryroe Madam	11 11/1(-83%)	(2) Barryroe Madam 11/1, Unsuited by a steady pace when down in trip, she needed the run when finishing down the field in a 2m6f handicap hurdle at Galway. Previously in good form, she is usually held up and probably wants 3m after being beaten by a well-treated rival before. The progress of her two previous runs stalled at Galway last month, needs to bounce back.

9th	4 9th (4) (6/1 +33%) Themanintheboots	6 6/1(+33%)	(4) Themanintheboots 6/1, Went too freely chasing the leader when fourth, beaten 27l in a 3m handicap hurdle at Roscommon last time. Best suited by 3m on a sound surface. Two wins in Scotland, remote fourth over 3m at Roscommon last week, needs to find extra.

Blinkers first time and prefers some give in the ground. Some promise early in her career, prone to making mistakes, hard to fancy at this stage.

12th	8 12th (8) (11/1 -22%) Technology	11 11/1(-22%)	(8) Technology 11/1, Ran below form when flattening out late up the hill in a 2m5f handicap hurdle at Navan last time. Effective between 2 1/2m and 3m but remains a frustrating maiden over hurdles. 15-race maiden over hurdles, best form has been at Wexford, needs to raise his game.
13th	15 13th (15) (20/1 +0%) Stormy Master	20 20/1(+0%)	(15) Stormy Master 20/1, Won by a head off 85 over 3m2f at Wexford two runs ago but was never involved when seventh, beaten 45l off 91 last time. Usually held up, he is best at 3m on good ground and may have been caught by the handicapper. Four-time chase winner, scored on penultimate run, could go well off lower hurdles rating.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (7/1 -8%) Doorman Moe	7 7/1(-8%)	(3) Doorman Moe 7/1, Returned to form up in trip, doing best of those who raced close to a strong pace when second, beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe. Off a short break and looks capable of further progress. Was having only his second handicap start when second at Ballinrobe, solid chance now.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (13/2 -44%) Damoso	6.5 13/2(-44%)	(12) Damoso 13/2, Won by 2 1/2l off 80 over 2m6f at Ballinrobe two starts ago. Unsuited by a drop in trip when fifth, beaten 12l off 87 last time. Progressive and may stay 3m. Stayed well when winning at Ballinrobe, 2m3f looked too short at Navan, this will suit.

LOUGH NIGARA can open his account on this third start for Eoin Griffin. Sent off favourite on his stable debut at Wexford in May, the eight-year-old could finish no better than mid-division. Stepped back up to this sort of trip at Listowel next time, he made steady late progress for third. Lightly raced for his age, he has had very few opportunities in races where stamina is at a premium. Runner-up at Wexford on his penultimate outing, the John McConnell-trained Technology has to enter calculations. Although slightly disappointing at Navan last time, he was racing over a shorter distance. Galway second Southgate Avenue should be competitive once again.

One of the less exposed runners here, DOORMAN MOE is worth a small interest on the strength of a Ballinrobe second eight weeks ago.

DREAMS ADOZEN struck over this trip at Musselburgh on only her second start for James Owen's yard. She found the competition too hot in the Cesarewitch Trial at Newmarket subsequently, but has strong claims at this much lower level and is taken to resume winning ways. Action Pact appreciated the step up to 2m when finishing a close third at Chester and that looks stronger form than Fabuleux Du Clos' recent second on the soft going at Catterick.

The vote goes to the unexposed 4yo ACTION PACT who went close at Chester last month and is open to more progress over this longer trip.

A major improver from his first to his second appearance when only beaten a neck at Southwell, MC MOAN is entitled to progress further and he can strike with Billy Loughnane taking over in the saddle. Not beaten far over 6f here on his return from the sidelines and first start after wind surgery, Brakeman looks set to give another strong account of himself. An experienced sort who has been placed in three of his six starts, Valley Ofthe Kings cannot be ruled out either.

The twice-raced pair Brakeman and MC MOAN both went close on Tapeta last month but slight preference is for the latter.

BOOM BOOM was struck into before being eased when eighth over shorter at Worcester in August but is best judged on his two summer wins here. The latest of which came over C&D in July off 5lb lower. If he is fully recovered, the seven-year-old could get back to winning ways, with Trapista his biggest danger. An encouraging fourth at Fontwell last month, she has won off higher marks in the past. Sleeping Satellite could also get involved if he learns to settle.

Preference is for BEGIN THE LUCK, who is very well suited by this track and will hopefully be back on song after his four-month break.

While it is somewhat disappointing that she hasn't won on the Flat yet, SEO LINN is given another chance. A Listed and Grade 2 bumper winner last NH season, the Paddy Twomey-trained mare had been expected to make an instant impact under this code. However, despite running with credit in four maiden starts, the daughter of Order Of St George has failed to get her head in front. On official ratings, though, she holds a strong chance in this company. Third on his Flat debut at Tipperary in May, Factual Fact rates the main danger. That form received a boost when the fourth won at Galway. The Tom McCourt-trained Radar Ahead looks best of the remainder.

Paddy Twomey's smart bumper performer SEO LINN is best treated by the race conditions and this looks a good opportunity for her

Noble Guest has won two of his last three starts here, both over seven furlongs, and although yet to succeed over the mile, it might be worth exploring again. Sir Mark Prescott is a dab hand at improving his horses and Wolverhampton scorer ALMEKAREM, who steps into handicaps for the first time, could follow a similar path. An opening mark of 81 looks fair assuming he has more to offer, while Big Sip is tried in cheekpieces and might prove best of the Marco Botti pair.

This will take some winning but LORD MONTAGUE (nap) has done really well in both his handicaps and can improve again.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,

Beaten the minimum margin at Listowel on debut, STATE PENSION can go one place better. The five-year-old ran green when coming under pressure before staying on strongly close home. Sure to have benefited from that initial experience, he should know his job on this occasion. Although off the track since August 2024, Mags Mullins' Eagle's Quest would be a serious threat if fit and ready. The booking of Patrick Mullins certainly suggests that he is ready to do himself justice. The Pat Doyle-trained Theran is worth a second look in the market on this introduction at his local track.

Lack of experience was an issue when STATE PENSION lost out narrowly at Listowel. With the run behind him, this is a good opportunity

CITY CAPTAIN has won three times so far this season. The first of those victories came over C&D and, after finishing a resolute third back here last time, Harriet Bethell's progressive three-year-old looks up to going in again off his current mark. The rejuvenated Belsito landed a brace at Hamilton last month and will be hard to keep out of the finish now only 3lb higher. Missmimi returns to Pontefract with a shout having scored here on her penultimate outing.

Preference is for the well-drawn CITY CAPTAIN (nap), who has an excellent record here and goes well on soft ground.

Now that the penny has dropped for HENRYTHENATE after a comfortable success over C&D, there is likely to be plenty more improvement forthcoming from the son of Mayson and he can follow up off 6lb higher. Guernsey Angel beat Mwaki over track and trip but the runner-up may reverse that form, courtesy of a 2lb pull for half a length.

The vote goes to the lightly raced MOIRA EXPRESS, who offered more in a C&D novice early last month.

Ballyeaston set connections back 50,000 pounds after being beaten a short-head in an Irish point-to-point and he could be the one to give HAY MAX a race. Beaten two lengths by a race-fit rival at Bangor in April, the son of Maxios looks the sort to learn plenty from the experience. Maxfly D'agrostis hasn't seen out his point-to-points, but could be a different proposition dropped in trip on his Rules bow.

Ballyeaston made a promising Irish point debut in the spring but Bangor runner-up HAY MAX gets the nod.

Chloe's Courage faded over 7f here latest but she could go well eased in trip. John Ryan's filly might struggle to cope with Chelmsford winner DUE DATE, though, who will appreciate the nature of a strongly-run contest, while a subsequent 4lb rise looks fair. No News remains a maiden on the turf but he was only beaten a neck at Southwell of 2lb lower last time and the booking of Kieran Shoemark is perhaps noteworthy.

There were excuses on the AW last time for MUMA MYFLO who had shown improved form the run before at Newmarket.

MISS LADY GRACE took a step forward when narrowly beaten by an odds-on favourite at Beverley, with the rest of the field well beaten. The daughter of Space Blues looks likely to launch another strong challenge with further improvement a distinct possibility. On Message failed to see out the mile at Sandown but cannot be ruled out back over 7f, while Khafar steps up in distance and could get involved if settling better.

It wasn't a surprise to see ON MESSAGE fade late at Sandown, with her having pulled hard on soft going, and she's worth another chance.

STAR OF ATLANTIS overcame a tardy start to finish a creditable third here a fortnight ago. She's reunited with Billy Loughnane for the first time since scoring here in May and it could be her turn again. Blue Empress remains without a victory, but drops in class with a shout off her tumbling mark. Embarked could prove competitive having finished runner-up here last month.

This should be run at a good pace and the vote goes to STAR OF ATLANTIS, who was an eyecatching third over C&D two weeks ago.

11th	2 11th (2) (9/1 +10%) Blue Seeker	9 9/1(+10%)	(2) Blue Seeker 9/1, Finished down the field in a handicap at Redcar last time and was well beaten over 6f previously; needs to rediscover earlier form. Won over C&D last December but he's 0-10 since and has struggled in last three runs.

MY CLEMENTINE responded well to a strong challenge from the eventual runner-up at Chepstow to win a shade cosily in the end. Unexposed on the all-weather, a 4lb rise may not be enough to prevent another bold bid from Adrian Wintle's filly. Homme De Fer posted his best effort so far when fourth at Lingfield and has plenty of scope, while Invincible Love is not without a chance and could make the frame.

The vote goes to MY CLEMENTINE who took advantage of a reduced mark when scoring at Chepstow. Homme De Fer is feared most.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (11/2 +54%) Surrey Fire	5.5 11/2(+54%)	(1) Surrey Fire 11/2, Scored by 2 1/2l off 74 over 1m5f at Lingfield on his penultimate start but ran below form when up 5lb latest. Wears a visor for the first time and looks fairly treated if returning to form. Both wins on Lingfield Polytrack, latest at 1m5f; soon smothered on Tapeta debut since.
2	6 2nd (6) (13/8 +54%) Venezuelan	1.625 13/8(+54%)	(6) Venezuelan 13/8, Battled well when beaten a neck off 81 at Newmarket in July. Now fitted with a first-time visor, and with the trainer in good form, he looks attractively weighted. Can lead; two solid 1m4f turf handicap runs either side of maiden win; acts on Tapeta.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/2 +65%) Patrol	3.5 7/2(+65%)	(8) Patrol 7/2, Ran to form when beaten 4 1/4l in a 10f Doncaster handicap last time. Has been in good order previously and should give another solid account. Three AW wins, including C&D, in winter/spring; thereabouts back over 1m4f.
4	4 4th (4) (18/1 -100%) Civil Law	18 18/1(-100%)	(4) Civil Law 18/1, Finished below par when beaten 6l in a Lingfield handicap in April after a consistent spell of form beforehand. Returns from a break and may just need this outing. Five course wins at up to about 1m1f; no closer to ending losing run in the spring (1m4f).
5th	5 5th (5) (11/1 -57%) Percy Jones	11 11/1(-57%)	(5) Percy Jones 11/1, From a yard that won this race last year. Scored by a head off 74 here three starts ago and was fifth beaten 2 1/4l off 77 last time, running to a similar level. Holds a fair chance. Four course wins, three under Billy Loughnane; truly run race would suit at this trip.
6th	7 6th (7) (28/1 -75%) Raintown	28 28/1(-75%)	(7) Raintown 28/1, Won by 4 1/4l off 70 at Newbury in July and ran to a similar level last time. His mark is easing, making him one to consider. Indifferent form here in early summer; turf winner at 1m4f since; still in form.
7th	11 7th (11) (20/1 -150%) Antelope	20 20/1(-150%)	(11) Antelope 20/1, Travelled strongly when second beaten 5l in a 10f seller at Chelmsford last time. That represents his best effort to date and he looks a danger now back in handicap company. Two 1m2f turf wins this year; 0-7 on AW and still has stamina to prove over this trip.
8th	3 8th (3) (28/1 -250%) High Court Judge	28 28/1(-250%)	(3) High Court Judge 28/1, Won by a neck off 75 at Lingfield on his penultimate start but disappointed over hurdles last time. His current mark looks fair and he could be competitive back on the Flat. Seven AW wins this year, two over C&D; cosy in August but moderate over hurdles since.
9th	10 9th (10) (10/1 -186%) Neoma	10 10/1(-186%)	(10) Neoma 10/1, Slowly away when landing a handicap by 2l off 69 here last time, eased late by 2-3l. Raised 6lb but that still looks a lenient assessment. Turf winner over 1m3f in June; best form yet when winning easily over C&D latest; up 6lb.
10th	2 10th (2) (10/1 +29%) Wiltshire Wonder	10 10/1(+29%)	(2) Wiltshire Wonder 10/1, Raced freely and was beaten 9l in a 1m6f handicap at Southwell last time. His mark remains competitive if reproducing the form of his Southwell win three runs back, though he comes with risks. Won two 1m4f Southwell races in late 2024; poor in January but excuse latest after break.

Neoma was able to exploit an ease in class to score over C&D a fortnight ago but although respected from 6lb higher, she will need to prove herself back in stronger company. With that in mind, preference is for HIGH COURT JUDGE. Things didn't work out for him over hurdles latest but he's certain to relish a return to the level, particularly an artificial surface, and he can supplement August's Lingfield triumph. Others to note include Venezuelan and Antelope.

Venezuelan could be hard to peg back but NEOMA raised her game over C&D last time and still has handicapping scope off 6lb higher.

2	1 2nd (1) (16/1 -33%) Fashionelle	16 16/1(-33%)	(1) Fashionelle 16/1, Probably needed the race when beaten 7l in a handicap over 1m6f here last time. Showed fair form beforehand and remains on a workable mark, though her recent runs suggest regression. Course winner who is versatile trip-wise and she's not ruled out on second run after break.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/8 +17%) Sneaky Blinder	1.875 15/8(+17%)	(4) Sneaky Blinder 15/8, Won a handicap by 2 1/2l off 49 here last time. That was a return to form and suggests he is well treated at the weights. 4yo who forged clear over C&D last time and he's a big player again off 4lb higher.
4	11 4th (11) (14/1 -75%) Dancing Bay	14 14/1(-75%)	(11) Dancing Bay 14/1, Well backed but finished down the field in a 9f handicap here last time. Showed promise when beaten about 6l off 53 on previous start after a break but can be erratic. 0-9 and this is a another big change of direction trip-wise; has questions to answer.
5th	3 5th (3) (50/1 -150%) Indigo Times	50 50/1(-150%)	(3) Indigo Times 50/1, Produced a better effort when beaten 5l in a handicap here last time. Usually held up and not without a chance if reproducing that form. Record of 6-17 on AW but he hasn't made an impact this season and others are preferred.
6th	2 6th (2) (14/1 +0%) Dubawi Time	14 14/1(+0%)	(2) Dubawi Time 14/1, Below par when well beaten in a 12f handicap at Bath last time. Current mark looks stiff based on recent form. Has generally struggled this year and has lots to prove at this new trip.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/3 +58%) Bedford	3.333333 10/3(+58%)	(9) Bedford 10/3, Appeared not to stay when beaten 5l in a 2m handicap at Kempton last time. This is his second run after a wind operation and he has plenty to prove. Unexposed 3yo but he needs improvement on this switch to Tapeta.
8th	8 8th (8) (18/1 -112%) Adrian	18 18/1(-112%)	(8) Adrian 18/1, Finished down the field in a 2m handicap at Ffos Las last time. Had been in good form prior and looks nicely weighted. His last win was in 2021 and he needs to bounce back after a heavy defeat at Ffos Las.
9th	7 9th (7) (11/1 -100%) Lumberjack	11 11/1(-100%)	(7) Lumberjack 11/1, Ran to form when beaten a head off 45 over 1m6f here last time. Previously in poor form but, given a repeat of that effort, should go well. 0-17 but he reappeared with a near-miss over 1m6f here last month; shortlisted.
10th	5 10th (5) (25/1 -56%) Baileys Warrior	25 25/1(-56%)	(5) Baileys Warrior 25/1, Beaten 8l in a handicap here last time. Her mark is easing and she holds a place chance. C&D winner but she's been well held in last two starts and needs to get back on track.
11th	6 11th (6) (8/1 +27%) Bright Start	8 8/1(+27%)	(6) Bright Start 8/1, Finished down the field over 12f at The Curragh on his most recent start. Returning from a break and has a bit to prove. Overall record is now 1-37 and looks oposable on return for new yard.

It is difficult to oppose SNEAKY BLINDER, who came home best of all to record a comfortable success over C&D last month. Robert Stephens' gelding has been raised 4lb but given that he's completely unexposed over this marathon trip, it could prove lenient. Lumberjack almost sprung a surprise when beaten a head here last time out. He won't be far away if able to produce a similar effort, although Alan King's Bedford, who has his second start following wind surgery, could be the bigger threat.

Top of the list is SNEAKY BLINDER (nap), who justified support when forging clear over C&D two weeks ago. Lumberjack is feared most.

2	9 2nd (9) (4/1 -14%) Amber Honey	4 4/1(-14%)	(9) Amber Honey 4/1, Did not get a clear run when beaten 3 1/2l off 57 over 7f at Yarmouth last time; consistent type who should go well again. C&D win in May and she ran well over 7f on turf latest; key player back up in trip.
3	11 3rd (11) (11/4 +75%) Strobelight	2.75 11/4(+75%)	(11) Strobelight 11/4, Failed to stay when beaten 7l in a handicap over 8f at Brighton last time; trainer in form and dangerous with unexposed types in handicaps. Well held in all four runs and needs a transformation on this switch to Tapeta.

No progress so far but was eyecatcher at Lingfield last time and she still has potential.
5th	8 5th (8) (4/1 +47%) Hock Eye The Noo	4 4/1(+47%)	(8) Hock Eye The Noo 4/1, Ran roughly to form when fourth, beaten 5l, in a handicap over 10f at Chelmsford last time; cheekpieces fitted for the first time may help but current mark looks quite stiff. C&D winner but she comes with risks attached and needs new headgear to give her a boost.

Won at Ripon (1m2f) in July but he's not gone on from that and others are preferred.

Leicester winner who wasn't beaten far in Class 5 there last time; in the mix on AW debut.
11th	3 11th (3) (25/1 -25%) Maywedance	25 25/1(-25%)	(3) Maywedance 25/1, Finished down the field in a handicap here most recently; erratic type but several previous efforts suggest this mark gives her a chance at a big price. Inconsistent 11-race maiden and was always in rear here (9.4f) last time; down the list.
12th	5 12th (5) (20/1 0%) Kitty's Dream	20 20/1(0%)	(5) Kitty's Dream 20/1, Failed to stay when down the field in a handicap over 8f at Doncaster most recently; visor goes on for the first time after a short break and has a bit to prove. Unexposed filly but she has plenty to prove after another break; hood and visor are added.

This doesn't look the easiest to unpick and only a tentative vote can go to SECONDS COUNT. The daughter of Time Test failed to threaten on her handicap bow, but it was an encouraging performance nonetheless. She's 2lb lower and, with less to prove than some of these rivals, any further improvement should bring her firmly into the reckoning. The consistent Amber Honey is likely to be thereabouts, along with El Fox, who could benefit from a drop in trip.

Preference is for C&D winner AMBER HONEY who was an eyecatching third at Yarmouth and could be a big factor back up in trip.

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.
