(4)  Hezmie |  | |  | | | 4 | Paula Muir | Chris Fairhurst | Down the field at Wetherby on reappearance, but didn't run badly and she's now 3lb lower than when a fair fourth of nine at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) on her final run last year; could improve for last time and is not discounted. | ||
(8)  Kitten's Dream | | | | | | 6 | Elisha Whittington | Scott Dixon | Two-time turf winner who won at Southwell (1m6f, AW) in February and went close at Wolverhampton last month; however, such high points have been in the minority this year and he's been soundly beaten the last twice. | ||
3rd (3)  Punxsutawney Phil | | | | | | 6 | Ben Robinson | Brian Ellison | Bumper, hurdle and chase winner who landed 1m4f AW maiden last December; however, he's struggled on his four starts since. | ||
(5)  Myboymax | | | | | | 5 | Aiden Brookes | Micky Hammond | Four-time turf winner who scored at Wolverhampton (1m6f, AW) last December but has found things difficult on his five outings since. | ||
2nd (7)  The Dancing Poet | | | | | | 7 | Joanna Mason | Brian Ellison | Disappointing at Newcastle in January and well beaten here a fortnight ago on his first run since; has something to prove but can't be ruled out off current mark, which is 5lb lower than when winning last August. | ||
(1)  Daniel Deronda | | | | | | 6 | Stefano Cherchi | Amy Murphy | With these blinkers back on he returned to form when third of five at Southwell (2m, AW) last month; also effective on turf; respected. | ||
4th (6)  Wannabe Brave | | | | | | 4 | Rowan Scott | James Fanshawe | Best form has come on AW but he's run just twice on turf and soft ground may not have been ideal at Thirsk last month; respectable third at Southwell (2m, AW) previously and not ruled out. | ||
1st (2)  Blow Your Horn | | | | | | 6 | Rossa Ryan | Ian Williams | 0-9 on turf but has run some good races on grass; close fourth of 14 at Lingfield (2m, AW) in April and unsuited by the steady pace when fourth of five at Chelmsford (2m, AW) last time; one to consider. |
Having appeared to be in good form on AW in April, BLOW YOUR HORN is taken to get off the mark on turf. Daniel Deronda ran well on AW last time and is second choice, ahead of Wannabe Brave.[Ben Hutton]

(11)  What Times Tea | | | | | | 2 | Andrew Mullen | Iain Jardine | 16,000gns foal; second foal; dam 7f-1m winner (including Listed), half-sister to two talented winners out of 6f Listed winner; in a warm race for her debut and she could improve for the run. | ||
(2)  Come On Irene | | | | | | 2 | Rowan Scott | Nigel Tinkler | 18-1, beaten just over 3l when sixth of 12 on debut at Thirsk (5f, good) a fortnight ago; trainer's 2yos usually need their first runs and she shaped as though she'd be suited by this step up in trip, while there's potential in her pedigree; however, plenty of improvement is required. | ||
(4)  Jumeirah Breeze | | | | | | 2 | Luke Morris | George Margarson | 155,000gns yearling; eighth foal; closely related to winners Geocentric (5f including 2yo/Listed), No Leaf Clover (6f 2yo; RPR 103), To Wafij (5f 2yo; 103) and Ranchero (7f/1m; 91); may improve for this debut outing but she's bred to be precocious and is not discounted. | ||
(6)  Nighteyes | | | | | | 2 | Daniel Tudhope | David O'Meara | 150,000gns yearling; fourth foal; half-sister to 7f winner The Grey Wolf (RPR 61); dam 6f-7f winner (including Group 3) from classy family; market check advised but she'll need to be useful to win on debut in this field. | ||
(8)  Raknah | | | | | | 2 | Paul Hanagan | Andrew Balding | Failed to threaten when 4l fifth of eight on last month's debut at Newcastle (5f, AW; 5-1) but she made good late headway and this step up in trip could generate plenty of improvement; possible contender for respected yard. | ||
2nd (10)  Star Of Mystery | | | | | | 2 | James Doyle | Charlie Appleby | Fifth foal; half-sister to four winners notably Althiqa (5f-1m including 2yo/US Grade 1) and Mysterious Night (6.5f-1m 2yo including Canadian Grade 1), both for this powerful yard; makes debut against rivals who have already shown significant ability but there's lots to like on paper. | ||
3rd (9)  Serene Seraph | | | | | | 2 | Pat Dobbs | Richard Hannon | 80,000gns yearling; third foal; closely related to UAE 1m dirt winner (RPR 89), half-sister to French 1m winner; dam 1m2f (Listed) and 1m3f winner; one to watch in the betting on debut but this looks a warm race. | ||
(3)  Jiwin | | | | | | 2 | Robert Havlin | John & Thady Gosden | 5-2 favourite when second of 12 on recent debut at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm), albeit no match for the winner; this 170,000gns breeze-up buy is open to improvement for her top stable and is firmly in calculations. | ||
(7)  Oops | | | | | | 2 | Callum Rodriguez | George Boughey | 15-2, promising fourth on debut at Newmarket (6f, good) a fortnight ago; has something to find with the runner-up Miss Roberts but her inexperience appeared evident in the Dip, prior to a strong finishing effort, and she's open to improvement over today's extra yardage; key player. | ||
4th (5)  Miss Roberts | | | | | | 2 | Hector Crouch | Ed Walker | 11-1, came from off the pace for a close second of ten on debut at Newmarket a fortnight ago (6f, good; Oops fourth), and the third has won since; holds leading form claims and there can be optimism she will improve. | ||
1st (1)  Carla's Way | | | | | | 2 | Jack Mitchell | Simon & Ed Crisford | £350,000 2yo (breeze-ups); third foal; dam 6f 2yo/7f winner (RPR 98) from talented family; wears a tongue-tie on debut; in good hands and no surprise to see a big run, especially if strong in the betting. |
Some of these have already shown significant promise, but the Godolphin newcomer STAR OF MYSTERY has an illustrious pedigree and is taken to make a winning start. Miss Roberts and Oops were second and fourth respectively at Newmarket a fortnight ago and Oops is feared most, having appeared to fail to handle the Dip before running on well. Yarmouth runner-up Jiwin could also be involved.[Ben Hutton]

6th (2)  Dubawi Warrior | | | | | | 3 | Cieren Fallon | William Haggas | Well-bred sort from a top yard but went off at 14-1 and offered no significant short-term promise on his 1m2f Newmarket debut a fortnight ago; down 3f in trip. | ||
2nd (6)  Back See Daa | | | | | | 3 | Charles Bishop | K R Burke | Beaten over 5l by the reopposing Onslow Gardens when fourth on her 7f Ascot debut (good) last September; went down only narrowly but failed to advance her RPR at Newcastle (7f again) ten weeks later; early days but improvement will be needed on reappearance. | ||
3rd (4)  Laoisman | | | | | | 3 | Robert Havlin | S Woods | Night Of Thunder colt who finished a close second in 1m Pontefract maiden on debut, but went backwards from that when down the field at Newmarket 15 days ago (both 1m, good); even a return to the debut form probably won't be enough. | ||
1st (3)  Game Set | | | | | | 3 | James Doyle | Owen Burrows | Brother to the same owner's quite useful 6f/7f winner Razeyna (RPR 91); interesting to see how he goes in the betting on debut. | ||
5th (5)  Onslow Gardens | | | | | | 3 | Pat Dobbs | Richard Hannon | Looked a winner in waiting when second in 7f maidens at Newmarket (good to firm) and Ascot (good; Back See Daa over 5l behind in fourth); failed to land short odds at Haydock on final start but will have a big say if bouncing back to the earlier form on his reappearance after a gelding operation. | ||
4th (1)  Resolute Man | | | | | | 3 | Jack Mitchell | Roger Varian | Won over 7f on Yarmouth debut last October; faded in the closing stages after briefly looking in control on his 7f Newbury reappearance, but perhaps he needed the outing a bit more than was anticipated (went off 4-6) and the fact he held an entry in the Group 1 St James's Palace at the time suggests his leading stable thinks quite a bit of him. |
The fact RESOLUTE MAN held a Group 1 entry when sent off a short-priced favourite under a penalty in an 11-runner Newbury novice on his reappearance suggests he's held in high regard by the Roger Varian stable. He couldn't get the job done on that occasion but impressed with the way he travelled and can give the weight away here. Onslow Gardens is the obvious main threat unless the market vibes are notably strong surrounding Owen Burrows' newcomer Game Set. [Andrew Sheret]

| 4th (7) Midnight Lion | | | | | | 3 | Andrew Mullen | Charlie Johnston | First two starts as 2yo (debut was on good to firm) were better than the two which followed; appearing at 1m2f three times as a juvenile smacks of one who's all about stamina (second at Goodwood on first occasion, one place in front of Rathgar) and he therefore needs a second look straight up to 14.5f for this handicap/seasonal debut. | ||
(8)  Chronograph | | | | | | 3 | Ray Dawson | Hugo Palmer | Placed early this year in three AW maidens (subsequently gelded) and he went down by a neck in another at Chester (1m4f, soft) three weeks ago on turf debut in first-time cheekpieces; made most and kept going in the last named, so this longer trip for handicap debut may well be within reach. | ||
(1)  Think First | | | | | | 3 | Rossa Ryan | James Tate | 2-2 on Chelmsford Polytrack (1m/1m2f) as 2yo and apparently improved form when fifth of eight at 66-1 in Lingfield Derby Trial (1m4f, AW) on latest outing; something to prove on return to turf but all his three turf runs were on softer than good; not sure to be suited by the longer trip. | ||
3rd (5)  Hope You Can Run | | | | | | 3 | Jack Mitchell | Charlie Johnston | His win came in a three-runner nursery here (1m, good) last August; upped to 1m4f and cheekpieces enlisted when back-to-form fifth of 11 at York (good to firm) on latest outing, just behind Rathgar; this trip is worth a go but others may have more potential. | ||
2nd (2)  Struth | | | | | | 3 | James Doyle | Charlie Johnston | Won on good to firm on debut; big step forward on reappearance when he added an eight-runner handicap at Chester (1m4f, soft) with what looked a strong-staying performance; up 6lb but more to offer. | ||
1st (3)  Saint George | | | | | | 3 | Cieren Fallon | Andrew Balding | Progressed in his three AW runs (1m, 1m2f and 1m3f) and last time it was when winning a novice race at Southwell, looking sure to stay further; more to give going into staying handicaps. | ||
(4)  Rathgar | | | | | | 3 | Charles Bishop | Jack Channon | Steady improvement across his five races, showing this term that he acts on soft ground and on good to firm; on latest start it was in a strong 1m4f handicap at York; stamina looked a strength from an early stage and this trip shouldn't be a problem; unlikely to be far away. | ||
(6)  Prosper Legend | | | | | | 3 | David Allan | William Haggas | His three runs were at 1m, 1m2f and 1m4f this spring and he's been improving; 4-9 when he won a maiden at Catterick (good to firm) last time, in a style which suggests he's a stayer, so further improvement should be on its way on this handicap debut. | ||
(9)  True Legend | | | | | | 3 | Luke Morris | Sir Mark Prescott Bt | Stepped straight up to 1m4f this season for handicap wins at Newcastle (AW; came from the back) and Salisbury (good; made all); raised another 7lb but looks sure to stay and is open to further improvement. |
This field is packed with interest and staying potential but the three to concentrate on may be PROSPER LEGEND, True Legend and Struth, in that order. The selection progressed in his first three races and won well in a maiden on good to firm ground last week, displaying plenty of promise for this longer trip, but the other two have proved their mettle in handicaps at 1m4f and won't go down without a fight.[Richard Austen]

4th (2)  Soames Forsyte | | | | | | 4 | Tom Eaves | Michael Herrington | 0-8 and unproven at this trip but his dam won at up to 1m4f and he's run several good races; denied clear run when fair fourth at Wolverhampton (8.6f, AW) in March last time and could be involved if seeing it out. | ||
3rd (6)  Conservative | | | | | | 4 | Phil Dennis | Scott Dixon | Continues to drop down the weights but hasn't shown enough this spring to suggest he's about to take advantage. | ||
(3)  Master Of Combat | | | | | | 5 | Rossa Ryan | Kevin Frost | Disappointing at Newcastle (1m2f, AW) in February but may have benefited from a break and he was in good form at Wolverhampton (8.6f/9.4f, AW) previously; won here (1m, good to firm) last June and could be involved. | ||
2nd (1)  Pledge Of Honour | | | | | | 7 | Charlie Bennett | Dean Ivory | Four wins (1m2f, good/good to firm) from his eight turf starts last year and he may have needed his reappearance run at Newbury a fortnight ago (1m2f, good; mid-division); could play a leading role. | ||
(4)  Thunder Max | | | | | | 4 | Pat Dobbs | Richard Hannon | Has posted encouraging performances at Haydock (1m2f, good/good to firm) on two of his three runs since being gelded, most recently third last Friday; this may take less winning and this course winner is one to consider. | ||
1st (5)  Shimmering Sands | | | | | | 4 | Joanna Mason | Michael & David Easterby | Won twice last summer (1m2f, good to firm/good) and he reappeared with a promising third at Pontefract (1m, good to firm) last Friday, a performance that bodes well for another progressive campaign; wears a first-time tongue-tie and he's a major player now back up in trip. |
Having posted two 1m2f wins during a progressive 2022, SHIMMERING SANDS (nap) reappeared with a close third over 1m at Pontefract recently and can return to winning ways now back up in trip. Course winner Master Of Combat is feared most back from a break, while Pledge Of Honour and Thunder Max are other possible dangers.[Ben Hutton]

(9)  El Montejean | | | | | | 3 | Jack Garritty | Mark Walford | Has managed only a well-held seventh in his two handicaps six months apart; still early days but can only watch this time. | ||
(1)  Inanna | | | | | | 3 | Robert Havlin | S Woods | Highly tried at 2 after 7f Haydock debut win; back on track with her sights lowered when close fourth of six in 1m Southwell handicap on reappearance, but she went backwards from that when last of nine back at Haydock three weeks ago. | ||
| 3rd (2) The Parent | | | | | | 3 | Pat Dobbs | Richard Hannon | Fulfilled previous promise when making all at Goodwood (1m, soft) and was eased off once his chance had gone when sent off the 2-1 favourite for his handicap debut at Newbury (7f, good) on his final 2yo start; good pedigree (by Frankel out of US turf Grade 1 winner) and interesting to see if his supporters' return on reappearance. | ||
4th (3)  Centre Court | | | | | | 3 | Oliver Stammers | Charlie Johnston | Dominant front-running display in 1m Newcastle handicap in April; better effort on turf since when fifth of 14 in competitive 1m1f Hamilton handicap (good to soft) three weeks ago; won't be inconvenienced by the return to 1m. | ||
| (4) Aclaimed Art | | | | | | 3 | Rossa Ryan | James Tate | Displayed a willing attitude to win a 1m maiden at Kempton in January and advanced his RPR again when narrowly denied on his Southwell handicap debut (1m again) in February; the Southwell form hasn't really worked out but his very useful pedigree marks him down as one who could have more to offer now switching to turf after a break. | ||
2nd (7)  Almarin | | | | | | 3 | Daniel Tudhope | Patrick Owens | Opened his account in 1m Yarmouth novice last September; comfortably held in 1m handicaps at Newmarket (good to soft) and Sandown (good) this year, although he did make some late headway at the latter; first-time visor needs to make a difference. | ||
(5)  Mindset | | | | | | 3 | Dylan Hogan | Michael Bell | Promise in novices at around 7f last autumn, but beaten too far out to blame the trip alone on his 1m2f Newmarket handicap debut/reappearance 16 days ago; still early days but hard to be confident about here. | ||
(6)  Supaspecialawesome | | | | | | 3 | Ross Coakley | Hugo Palmer | Not out of the first two in four outings over 7f on AW, ending 2022 with a novice win at Wolverhampton; made a solid start to his handicap career when going down by only a neck back there 19 days ago; plenty to like about his profile but the longer trip and turf are unknowns. | ||
(8)  Bauhinia Rhapsody | | | | | | 3 | Hector Crouch | Ed Walker | Placed in 7f/1m novices on AW at the end of 2022; reported to have been unsuited by soft ground when well held in 1m Nottingham maiden on reappearance in April; given a bit of time ahead of this switch to handicaps. | ||
(10)  Lerwick | | | | | | 3 | Callum Rodriguez | Edward Bethell | Couldn't justify favouritism on his 1m Haydock handicap debut and reappearance, but he did travel comfortably in the lead for a long way and it's possible he'll be sharper for the outing, for all his market strength suggests he was thought to be ready; retains potential for a yard which continues in good form. | ||
1st (11)  Wildfell | | | | | | 3 | J F Egan | Peter Chapple-Hyam | Big improver in AW handicaps for new trainer this spring, completing a 7f hat-trick when seeing off nine rivals at Southwell 26 days ago; has to prove that his progress hasn't been totally surface related but he had plenty in hand last time and could still be well treated even after a 9lb rise; likely to stay 1m. |
The progressive WILDFELL is one of a few of the likely market principals who needs to prove his effectiveness on turf, but he was comfortably on top when completing the hat-trick at Southwell last month and the handicapper may not have got him yet. Lerwick moved well in the lead for a long way on his Haydock reappearance and is second choice. Like the selection, Supaspecialawesome is one who should have a say if transferring his AW form to the grass. The Parent failed to fire in a Newbury nursery when last seen, but it could be significant that he went off favourite and it will be interesting to see if there's any market support for him again on his reappearance.

(12)  Brunello Breeze | | | | | | 4 | Andrew Elliott | Tom Tate | Went close off a 14lb higher mark over 7f at Haydock (good to soft) a year ago but very little to shout about in his seven subsequent runs, especially this season; remains to be seen if the drop to sprinting helps. | ||
1st (2)  Crypto Quest | | | | | | 4 | Paddy Mathers | Ian McInnes | Won a 6f Hamilton handicap (good to firm) last July on final start for Kevin Ryan; well beaten in two outings for Les Eyre; has plenty to prove on return for a new trainer after seven months off. | ||
4th (11)  Alseeyerthere | | | | | | 5 | David Allan | Steph Hollinshead | Showed some promise on the second of three outings over 7f (good to firm/good to soft) last summer; related to winners in these colours and possible she can take a step forward now handicapping on her seasonal return; tongue tied first time; worth a second look in the betting. | ||
(9)  Somewhere Secret | | | | | | 9 | Elisha Whittington | Lisa Williamson | Now 3lb lower than when successful over 6f at Nottingham (good) for Rebecca Menzies last summer, but his form dipped last autumn and he's fared no better in two comeback outings for Lisa Williamson. | ||
2nd (5)  Musical Mystery | | | | | | 4 | Robert Havlin | Ali Stronge | Placed three times last summer but ended 2022 with two disappointing efforts on AW; has had wind surgery ahead of reappearance; also tongue tied first time; others appeal more. | ||
(10)  Key Look | | | | | | 6 | Callum Rodriguez | Paul Midgley | Won off 1lb higher at Catterick (7f, good to firm) for Geoff Harker last summer, but didn't shape with any short-term promise on her Southwell reappearance for her new yard in April. | ||
(1)  Athollblair Boy | | | | | | 10 | Alex Jary | Nigel Tinkler | Veteran who has won twice over 6f at Newcastle this year; not disgraced in a Class 5 there last time; only 3-54 on turf but two of the wins came here; not discounted. | ||
(7)  She's The Danger | | | | | | 4 | Ben Robinson | Roy Bowring | Her best efforts have come here, winning a 7f handicap (good) and second over this trip (good to firm) last summer; possible soft ground was against her when well over C&D back on turf five weeks ago. | ||
(8)  Madame Fenella | | | | | | 4 | Tom Eaves | Derek Shaw | Has won just one of her 16 starts but she has returned in reasonable form and can be very competitive from her current mark. | ||
(4)  Caribbean Sunset | | | | | | 5 | Oliver Stammers | Grant Tuer | Has only made the track six times since his successful Lingfield debut (6f, Polytrack) for the Crisfords in November 2020; has shown enough since returning from another absence to suggest he can be very competitive from his reduced mark but he does have to prove his effectiveness on turf (all starts on AW). | ||
3rd (3)  Kitaab | | | | | | 4 | Cieren Fallon | Ian Williams | Has hinted at ability in his light career and caught the eye when making late headway from the rear to finish seventh of 11 on his 5f Thirsk reappearance a fortnight ago; the return to 6f will suit; interesting contender, particularly if backed. | ||
(6)  Close Quarters | | | | | | 4 | Daniel Tudhope | John Quinn | This half-sister to Winter Power let favourite backers down when a well-held fourth of six fitted with blinkers at Nottingham (6f, heavy) 22 days ago, but prior to that she'd finished an encouraging fourth over C&D (soft) and that form worked out; fine on a quicker surface; given another chance with the headgear quickly discarded. |
It might be worth giving another chance to the well-bred CLOSE QUARTERS back at the scene of her promising reappearance. Athollblair Boy was in reasonable form on AW when last seen a couple of months ago and has saved a lot of his best turf efforts for this place, so he's second choice. The lightly raced Kitaab caught the eye on his 5f reappearance and is also on the shortlist with the return to 6f likely to suit. [Andrew Sheret]
