(3) Felicias Castle	4	Jason Simpson	Osborne Smith	A winner at 7f. Beaten 10l behind S S Spartan Energy at 19-5 when seventh of 9 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 6f last month. Appears to be up against it.

(8) Thunderinreadyrick	5	Christian Hiraldo	Curtis Bass	He has won three times from 4f to 7f. Well beaten at 19-5 behind Sargent Kobe when last of 7 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 6f last month. Foolish to ignore.
2nd (1) Grumpy's Buddy	3	Arnaldo Bocachica	Jeff Runco	A winner at 6f. Finished 4 1/2l behind Neverfold when sixth of 10 at 18-5 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 6f in April. Improvement not discounted.

5th (1) Lost In Space	5	Joe Bravo	S Callaghan	He has won three times from 7f to 1m on ground varying from good to firm to soft, but last win was over two years ago. Beaten 4 1/2l behind One Fast Bro at 13-5 when last of 10 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) in April. Unlikely to see his losing run end here.
(7) Rip City	6	Ricardo Ramirez	Lorenzo Ruiz	Winner of six races from 1m to 1m 1f on good ground. Finished 13l behind Moody Jim when last of 6 at 2-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Doug O'Neill. A watching brief is advised.
1st (10) Hembree	9	Edwin Maldonado	Peter Miller	Has won eight races from 5f to 1m on good ground and on the all-weather, but last win was over two years ago. Beaten 2 1/4l by Took Charge when second of 5 at 17-4 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. An unreliable type.

A winner at 13-5 at Turf Paradise over 1m (good) on his latest outing in April, beating Tempted Mission by 1/2l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with David Van Winkle. Shortlist material.
2nd (9) Comradery	6	Tiago Pereira	S Knapp	Successful at 1m and 1m 1f on good ground, but last win was over two years ago. Third of 6 behind Moody Jim beaten 3l at 12-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. No forlorn hope.

5th (3) Gordy's Boy	5	Leonel Camacho Flores	Guillermo Preciado	Successful at 5f and 1m. Beaten 6l behind Lord Wimborne at 13-1 when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. Doesn't win very often and others are preferred.
(2) Mesa Empire	4	William III Antongeorgi	Michael Lenzini	Successful at 4f and 1m. Beaten 14l behind Vanisky at 30-1 when last of 8 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. Posted a lacklustre effort and needs to bounce back.
2nd (4) Class Code	5	Cristobal Herrera	Daniel Franko	She has won four times at 1m. Third of 5 behind Indian Dancer beaten 2 1/4l at 5-1 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. Knocking at the door and ought to prove popular.
(8) Phantom Drop	5	Santos Rivera	Victor Trujillo	He has won three times from 5f to 6f. Finished 6l behind Luck's Royal Flush when fourth of 6 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 5f in April. Arrives on the back of some consistent efforts and looks one to consider.
1st (1) On Raglan Road	8	Evin Roman	Isidro Tamayo	He has won four times at 1m. Finished 4 1/2l behind Lord Wimborne when fifth of 8 at 5-1 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. Invariably runs his race under these conditions and enters calculations.
4th (5) Sync	4	Armando Ayuso	Isidro Tamayo	Winner of five races at 1m. Finished 3l behind Lord Wimborne when fourth of 8 at 5-1 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. That effort signalled a return to form and claims if building on it.
(7) Pour On The Cole	6	Catalino Martinez	Jose Puentes	Winner of six races at 1m. Finished 2 1/4l behind Ecologist when fourth of 6 at 15-1 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m last month. Won't be far away on that evidence.
3rd (6) Chief Jackson	5	Epifanio Garcia	D Baker	He has won three times from 5f to 1m. Finished 4l behind Il Capitano when last of 6 at 9-2 on his latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) last month. That was a stronger event and a bold bid seems assured now eased into calmer waters.

CHIEF JACKSON has been performing with credit in stronger races than this, the latest when finishing sixth over slightly further here last month, and he could prove too good. Pour On The Cole weakened late into fourth over an extended mile latest and he can prove the biggest danger down in trip ahead of On Raglan Road.

(9) Donnie B	4	Christian Hiraldo	Donald Barber	A winner at 4f. Finished 6l behind Bertram Flight when fourth of 9 at 30-1 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f last month. Only playing for a minor role.
(4) In High Gear	5	Alisson Nunez	Timothy McDonald	A winner at 4f. Finished 7l behind Bertram Flight when sixth of 9 at 28-1 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f last month. Work to do.
3rd (8) De's Castle	3	J Acosta	Kevin Joy	A winner at 4f. Third of 8 behind Colt Rock beaten 3l at 30-1 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f in April. Worth a second look.
(6) Neverpopthecork	3	Juan Esquilin	Kristy Petty	A winner at 6f. Beaten 8l behind Neverfold at 13-1 when eighth of 10 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 6f in April. Recent efforts have been lacklustre.
(1) Abendego	4	Marshall Mendez	Vernon Greaves	A winner at 7-5 at Charles Town over 4f on his latest outing in September last year, beating Nice But Naughty by 3l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Roland Clement III. This demands a big step forward.
(3) Kaylee's Spitfire	3	Victor Rodriguez	Frederick Clatterbuck	A winner at 4f. Beaten 9l behind Little Roo Roo at 35-1 when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f last month. This seems a more suitable assignment.
2nd (5) Teachintherelease	3	Gustavo Larrosa	Kristy Petty	A winner at 4f. Beaten a head by Bertram Flight when second of 9 at 17-5 on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f last month. Can have a say in proceedings.
4th (7) Chasenjohnathan	3	Orlando Bocachica	Gregory Viands	A winner at 4f. Beaten 3/4l by Colt Rock when second of 8 at 11-10fav on his latest outing at Charles Town over 4f in April. High on the shortlist.
1st (2) Pink Dinghy	3	Wesley Ho	Javier Contreras	Won on his latest outing when 7-5fav at Charles Town over 4f last month, beating Jazz With Denis by 2 3/4l. Interesting upped in class.

It is hard to oppose TEACHINTHERELEASE, who just failed to score over C&D on his latest outing last month. Chasenjohnathan remains unexposed and is feared most, while De's Castle completes the shortlist.

(10) Right Of Refusal	3	Luis Valenzuela	Coty Rosin	A winner at 5f on good ground and on the all-weather. Well beaten at 15-2 behind Blushing Belle when last of 6 on her latest outing at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 6f in November last year. Reserve.
(3) Fat And Furious	4	Israel Hernandez	Bennie Woolley Jr	She has won three times from 7f to 1m on good ground. Won on her latest outing when 7-10fav at Turf Paradise over 1m (good) last month, beating Curious Inji by 5l. In good form but this is harder.

2nd (5) Rollin Blackout	4	Kelsi Harr	Nancy Sheehan	A winner at 7f on good ground. Finished 8l behind Foolish Intent when fifth of 7 at 19-2 on her latest outing at Fonner Park over 6f in April. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Jannae Stankey. Likely to find one or two of these too good.
3rd (4) Desert Glow	4	Lindey Wade	Tony Rengstorf	A winner at 1m on good ground. Finished 14l behind Candy Caramel when sixth of 8 at 45-1 on her latest outing at Oaklawn Park over 6f (good) in April. Needs these calmer waters to help.

1st (7) Chica Boom	5	Alonso Quinonez	Bernell Rhone	She has won four times from 7f to 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. A winner at 11-1 at Tampa Bay Downs over 1m (good) on her latest outing in April, beating Slime Queen by 2 1/4l. Likely to be on the scene.
(2) Marina's Gold	4	Ezequiel Lara	Chris Richard	Successful twice at 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Third of 8 behind Shezz Koldazice beaten 4 1/2l at 11-1 on her latest outing at Oaklawn Park over 1m (good) in April. Needs this drop in class to work the oracle.
4th (6) Lookin So Lucky	6	Harry Hernandez	Jose Silva	She has won four times from 7f to 1m on good ground. Beaten 1 1/4l by Indy's Star when second of 7 at 19-10 on her latest outing at Turf Paradise over 7f (good) in March. Should be thereabouts.
(1) Dreaming Biz	6	Carlos Ulloa	Joel Berndt	She has won three times from 5f to 1m on good ground. Beaten 10l behind In The Red at 5-1 when last of 10 on her latest outing at Canterbury Park over 1m (good) in September last year. Has place claims.

HURRICAIN HUNTER was only just touched off in a better contest than this last time and a repeat of that effort would see her take all the beating today. Lookin So Lucky and Chica Boom should also be thereabouts.

2nd (3) Port Royal	6	Yusuke Igarashi	Mizuki Takayanagi	Odds of $9.5 and didn't threaten when 11th last run at Fukushima on a good rated track. Second run this campaign. Place chance only.
1st (8) Neviim	4	Kayata Komaki	Shozo Sasaki	Came on strongly to finish 3rd last time at Fukushima on a good surface but second up from a spell. Should get a lovely cart into it from just behind the leaders. Has definite claims.
3rd (1) Aller De L'avant	4	Keita Ban	Takaki Iwato	First up from a spell. Finished with purpose when winning three runs back around here but drawn well. Solid win bet.
(2) Iberia	7	Shinya Kitazawa	Norio Fujisawa	At $109 below expectations when 6th last run at Kokura but coming to a new trainer. Back from break. Gets a favourable barrier. Look for a better price late if pondering a wager on this.
(4) Ready Steady Go	4	Masayuki Nakamura	Naoya Nakamura	Started $14 and disappointing effort when 6th last start at Niigata. Place hope.
(5) Florstadt	3	Taro Kusano	Hirofumi Toda	Started $19 and ran past a few when 5th last start at Niigata. Slight chance.
(6) Gold Frame	6	Sho Ueno	Koichi Shinkai	Comprehensive victory when winning three runs back at Kokura. Having third run back from a spell. Could sneak a place.

SPARKLEINYOUREYE kept on for second over C&D last month and is entitled to confirm form with La Maddalena (third). True Flirt is another to consider.

2nd (12) Torono Ono	2	D Sasaki	M Takeuchi	Odds of $15 and lackluster showing when 5th last time here. Should improve today. In the mix.
3rd (11) Silver Niece	2	T Ono	Yasuhito Tamura	Third up from a break. Nice effort when finishing 3rd last run at the track on a good rated track. Quietly confident of a big run at decent odds.

(2) Durami Chan	2	M Iwata	Y Kato	Was $6 and sub-standard effort when 7th last time at Nakayama but will try to take advantage of the barrier. Resumes from a spell. Needs a mighty effort to win this.
(3) Rickey Macchiato	2	K Yokoyama	J Ono	Jumped at $76 and weakened to finish 13th last time at the track on a good rated track but fitter for debut run. First up today. Hard to entertain.
(4) Bouquet Espoir	2	K Kikuzawa	Takanori Kikuzawa	Jumped at $95 and only fair when 11th last start at Chukyo and resuming from a spell. Likely to settle back in the field. This won't be easy.
(5) Carle Pomelo	2	R Kobayashi	K Konishi	Started at $218 and looked outclassed when 14th last time at Kokura on a good surface and racing fresh after a break. Might have to make up considerable ground. Prefer a return to something a lot easier.
(6) Alma Seraph	2	A Nishimura	Eiji Nakadate	At $254 moderate showing when 6th last run around here but second up. Will be giving the leaders a big start. Needs to improve.
(7) Loving Memory	2	T Nagano	Eiji Nakadate	At $22 didn't find the line when 9th last time at Niigata on a good surface but second run this campaign. Gets back and needs luck. Entitled to be big odds.

(9) Kitano Passion	2	H Mayuzumi	T Ishikuri	Odds of $144 and weakened under pressure when 11th last run at Chukyo and fresh today after a break. Does take a while to get into stride. Have to look elsewhere.

3rd (5) My Kacejj	3	Karlo Lopez	Matt Williams	A winner at 6f. Finished 10l behind Katar when fifth of 7 at 12-1 on his latest outing at Turf Paradise over 5f last month. Needs more to be seriously considered.

1st (6) One In Vermillion	3	Harry Hernandez	Esteban Martinez	He has won four times from 5f to 1m. A winner at 5-1 at Santa Anita over 7f on his latest outing last month, beating Navy Man by 5l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with J Kruljac. Has leading credentials.
(4) American Refugee	4	Daylor Berrios Lopez	Jose Silva	A winner at 1m. Finished 2l behind Rosenquist when fourth of 8 at 18-5 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) in March. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Bob Baffert. Should be on the scene.

ONE IN VERMILLION was a bloodless winner of a valuable stakes race over 7f at Santa Anita last time and this appears to be a good opportunity of following up that success. Xavey Dave and American Refugee complete the shortlist.

3rd (10) Cinco De Mayo	6	Shreyas Singh	Neil B Devaney	He almost scored in his final winter start (losing narrowly by 1/2l) and will look to build on the gallant effort.
4th (3) Defining Power	5	M Rajesh Kumar	V Narayana Gowda	Pulled off a smart gambling coup in his previous foray and broke his maiden in the process (10th start). He may opt to take it easy till his bulging wallet lightens.
2nd (4) Excellent Ray	4	Kiran Naidu	Rajesh Narredu	His rider was penalised for failing to ride out till the finish (ran 4th) on his debut. He should improve the finish with a better ride.

(9) Way Of Life	4	Salman Khan	Warren Singh	She changes hands as well as yards. The first run of the 8-race maiden under her new master is best watched.
(2) Roman Spirit	3	A Imran Khan	S Dominic	He reverts to a shorter trip (6f) after doing all the running and clinging on to finish third (7f) on his seasonal debut. That move may prove beneficial.
(5) Thewhisperquietly	4	K Sai Kiran	Sharat Kumar	He did toil in the rear in both of his starts, but this weak affair could see him hit some kind of form.
(6) Empire Of Dreams	4	S Saba	M Rajendra Singh	He has the speed but crumbles like a deck of stacked cards in the straight. That is his drawback.

A handsome winner on debut, STELLANTIS (1) will prove difficult to beat. ROMAN SPIRIT (2) will most likely be the one to follow him home. A hunch says that THEWHISPERQUIETLY (5) may holler out aloud (win).

An expensive failure on his debut, JULIO (2) will look to make amends. IRISH ROCKSTAR (8) deserves respect, for she is by a champion sire and out of a classic-winning dam. As for fluke seekers, there is GOOD TIP (7), who has the bloodline to extend the best in this field.

(10) The Blissfulelysee	3	P Siddaraju	Sharat Kumar	She is by a sire with a poor strike rate, and the twice-raced maiden stands no chance whatsoever.
(11) Windsor	3	S Saqlain	L D Silva	In four starts, she finished second twice and hit the frame in the other two runs. She could sneak in to grab a minor placing.

GOLDEN GLOW (1) closed well to finish an eye-catching third on debut, suggesting he will be better off with the experience under his belt. If the twice-raced maiden KNOTTY CHALLENGER (2) hits form, then he will surely be a force to reckon with. Debutant ZAZA (6) could strike it rich on debut if he reproduces his sparkling workouts on the track.

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
2nd (1) Mia's Harper	2	K De Melo	D Kannemeyer	September foal; trainer gets fair share of winning debutants over this sort of trip; dam was a race winner; remains to be seen whether she'll be clued up enough to get off the mark at the first attempt - the betting may be the best guide
1st (12) Montelena	2	J Jacobs	P Botha	Was on the premises (finished runner-up of 14) in a fillies maiden juvenile plate (C&D) last month; not the biggest surprise to see her go well
3rd (5) Callmegetrix	2	A Domeyer	C Bass-Robinson	Sound effort on her debut (66-1) here, the second franked the form since; should not be far away as has potential to improve
(2) Hermanus Sunrise	2	C Zackey	A E Sands	Dam was a race winner; first competitive racecourse experience; whether she'll be sufficiently clued up remains to be seen so would be a surprise to see this one figure
(3) Ticket To Vegas	2	D Ashby	R Maingard	Beaten 12l into ninth (fillies maiden juvenile plate) latest here over 7f
(4) More Than A Dream	2	D De Gouveia	G S Kotzen	Upped to 7f in a fillies maiden juvenile plate 25 days ago when beaten a fair way (15l); has a bit to find with Miracle In Motion (fifth) on that running
(6) Whataball	2	G Wright	C Bass-Robinson	Was towards the rear of 13 on her debut over C&D at 40-1
(7) Kamakazi	2	M Winnaar	C Bass-Robinson	Early foal; trainer can ready one; likely best watched as she may come unstuck against more experienced rivals
(8) Jet To The Sun	2	J P v'd Merwe	J S Snaith	Comfortably beaten finishing eighth over C&D two months ago
(9) One Fell Swoop	2	G Van Niekerk	J S Snaith	Well behind the second, Fatal Gem, over this trip (20-1) when beaten on her debut
(10) Miracle In Motion	2	R Fourie	J S Snaith	Beaten at 9-2 on her debut failing to capitalise on an ideal draw running here over 7f; form given substance by next-time-out winner; more scope for improvement than some of these; she has a shout
(11) Fatal Gem	2	L Mxothwa	B Crawford	Ran well to finish runner-up (beaten 1l) in a fillies maiden juvenile plate last month over C&D; definitely of interest

There's not much between those likely to be in the mix but FATAL GEM sets the benchmark. Miracle In Motion is capable of better than she showed last time, and chances are given to Callmegetrix and Montelena.

1st (4) Pink Jasmine	5	Shreyas Singh	S S Attaollahi	She is woefully out of form and has her work cut out for her.
4th (7) Original Sin	3	Niranjan S Parmar	R H Sequeira	Swept the field aside on her debut but faltered (ran 4th) when strongly fancied next (50/100 favourite). She should try to make amends for the expensive failure.
2nd (1) Shabelle	4	P Trevor	S S Attaollahi	She reunites with her performing rider, and it goes without saying that they would be eager to recreate their magic of old.
3rd (6) Lazarus	3	P S Chouhan	Pesi Shroff	Won as he liked on his debut. His sire and dam were both trained by his master, and he will have him tuned to the minute to make it two wins in a row.
(2) Extraordinary	6	K Sai Kiran	Sharat Kumar	He hails from a gambling yard, and the ring odds would be the best indicator of his chances.
(3) Kalamitsi	4	Tadhg O'Shea	S S Attaollahi	Has seen good company and should strive to use it to his advantage. The booking of the visiting foreign rider should be seen as a sign of good tidings.
(5) King Of War	4	S Saqlain	V Lokanath	Won twice in four winter starts. The combined penalty may dent his chances.
(8) Worcester	3	P Sai Kumar	L D Silva	He left the followers of form wobbling on their knees in his final winter run (won at 15/1 odds). A second such show cannot be ruled out.

An impressive winner on his debut, LAZARUS (6) just needs to contain the bids of SHABELLE (1) and KALAMITSI (3) to make it two wins in a row.

1st (11) Kelina Josselyn	3	P Vercruysse	T Malmqvist	Useful filly that trotted 1aEUR (tm)14aEUR (tm)aEUR (tm)6 at Vincennes last month and a similar effort would see her get that maiden monkey off her back
2nd (7) Kopeck De Chenu	3	B Rochard	J M Baudouin	Improving colt that showed a good turn of foot to trot 2nd to KSAR VRIE (6) at Vichy and can again go close if he turns

Although yet to get off the mark, KELINA JOSSELYN (11) has nevertheless shown a lot of potential and if she takes to the Chartres profile, she should be in a position to lose her maiden tag. Principal danger is expected to come from KSAR VRIE (6) who opened his account three weeks ago at the first time of asking, and the tricky KAPORAL KADESH (8) who got off the mark at Cherbourg last month. KOPECK DE CHENU (7) will figure prominently if he can handle going left-handed.

4th (3) Fighton	3	Niranjan S Parmar	M K Jadhav	The got-abroad contestant has yet to prove his mettle beyond the sprints (6f). He would be a player if he were able to prove it today.
3rd (1) Knotty Charmer	3	P S Chouhan	Prasanna Kumar	He is back on the track on which he has yet to lose (winner thrice) after finishing second in the Nilgiris 2000gn and derby (at Ooty). He looks formidable.
1st (12) Jamari	3	P Trevor	Pesi Shroff	She is speedy and, above all, has proven herself by dishing out top-notch performances. They all have to beat her.
(2) Huntingdon	3	P Sai Kumar	L D Silva	He is after back-to-back wins after scoring in his final winter run at Hyderabad. This field looks tough for him to achieve his goal.
(4) Brave Trooper	3	Hindu Singh	R Rakesh	He is obviously held in high esteem by his connections for him to be supplemented as a final entry. He deserves a look for that.
(6) Del Pico	3	S Saqlain	Irfan Ghatala	He gets a chance (better off by 2 kg now) to pay back Knotty Charmer with the same coin, for he was beaten by him in their previous cash.
(7) Felix	3	Shreyas Singh	Dr Anil Kumar	The got-abroad colt has yet to hit form. To expect the 5-race maiden to do so in this powerful set would be akin to asking a miracle to happen.
(8) Galahad	3	Tadhg O'Shea	S S Attaollahi	Ran fourth on his debut over a sprint but came into his own with a bloodless victory next over the 7f trip. He should be right there at the busy-end.
(9) Gimmler	3	P S Kaviraj	Dr Anil Kumar	He was right there at the final bend but failed to give the desired response in the straight first-up this term. He has a steep hill to climb.
(10) I Want It All	3	T S Jodha	Dr Anil Kumar	To crave for everything is surely no crime, but the 6-race maiden first needs to hit form to do that. The sooner he learns that, the better.

Sitting at the foot of the scales, JAMARI (12) will have only classic-placed KNOTTY CHARMER (1) to contend with. That statement will surely rile GALAHAD (8), and he will strive with might and determination to prove it wrong.

(7) Steadfast	2	J P v'd Merwe	J S Snaith	Dam had winning form; yard more than capable of readying a newcomer, especially over this sort of distance; August foal; can only be watched as he might have too much on his plate this time

The silks of Godolphin and His Highness Aga Khan, who are represented by Blue Point colt ADORE BLUE (3) and Siyouni newcomer SHADIZI (1) respectively, are also likely to be the fore. HANTANO (7) is a son of the phenomenal Moonlight Cloud.

2nd (6) Gainsford	5	C Zackey	V H Marshall	Season-ticket holder here with four wins; stepped up to 1m1f with blinkers refitted in March when 4l last of seven (Durbanville); he can be taken on
3rd (1) My Bestie	5	L Mxothwa	G S Kotzen	Needs to bounce back after regressive performances; never landed a blow when eighth of nine here over 7f last month; poor record second up off a break so others more appealing
1st (4) Top Quality	4	J P v'd Merwe	J S Snaith	Finished first dropped back to 1m1f in August when getting the job done by a neck; returns from a layoff; definitely of interest
(2) Nevada King	3	R Fourie	J S Snaith	No winning form at this trip; respectable fourth over C&D last month (class 3 race, form has been nicely boosted); definite chance if in the same mood as when he won at Kenilworth in January
(3) Hasta Manana	4	M Winnaar	D A McLachlan	Posted respectable effort when beaten 1½l in a class 3 race here last month on his second outing for this trainer; has had lots of chances since last win; may have to settle for supporting role
(5) Impetuous	3	A Andrews	V H Marshall	Aiming for a second CD win after his success here four weeks ago
(7) Narina Trogon	3	G Wright	C Bass-Robinson	Not beaten far in a class 3 race over C&D last month, form boosted since by the fifth and 13th; capable of making an impact
(8) Keep It Secret	4	G Van Niekerk	J S Snaith	Comfortably held in seventh in a class 3 race (C&D) last month; a long time since his last success and no wins at the trip

This is a difficult race to call but TOP QUALITY is the one to keep on side. He bids for a third course success and sets the form standard based on his most recent effort. Nevada King and Narina Trogon may have their stamina stretched over this distance.

4th (4) Illustre Sax	5	P Ph Ploquin	C H Hamel	Hardy sort that returned to winning ways a fortnight ago and in similar form can give ISLAND STAR (12) a run for his money
1st (10) Invictum Du Noyer	5	R Derieux	R Derieux	Barring the occasional blip is a good, consistent campaigner. Has taken no time getting back in shape and his latest Chartres run augurs well for his chances
2nd (12) Island Star	5	H Monthule	S Guarato	Makes her Chartres debut off the back of three straight wins. Incurs the penalty but still looks the horse to beat
(1) Idesia D'Angely	5	D Bertrand	A Rigo	Useful mare that pleased on only appearance at the venue but unraced since January
(2) Iva Royale	5	P Vercruysse	P H Daugeard	Solid on her only appearance here but sanctioned in both since her return and will not be easy to trust
(3) Indie Bakalaika	5	M J Barcelo Bisquerra	A Rigo	4th to ISLAND STAR (12) last time out after having won at Le Croise Laroche. Starts in front and will not be far from the action
(5) Icare De Val	5	A Lamy	P Mary	Can prove tricky but otherwise very hard to fault. In the frame in both starts this term and is not incapable of upsetting the apple cart
(6) Icare De Vouede	5	A Lavielle	D Brohier	Consistently gives everything he has but has never excelled here and unlikely to spring any surprises
(7) Intentionally	0	B Rochard	M Sassier	Dependability not her strong suit but capable on a good day and will have her supporters

(11) Iromee	5	P Blanchon	S Roger	Alternates the good with the less good but stays shod and has other priorities

Even though it is never an easy thing to give away distance at Chartres, it is hard to see ISLAND STAR (12) being beaten after having secured three solid victories in succession. She is unlikely to have it entirely all her own way though with the better-positioned ILLUSTRE SAX (4) recently having found his form. INVICTUM DU NOYER (10) caught the eye here on his last start and should again be competitive, as should the in-form INDIE BAKALAIKA (3) who has shown considerable improvement lately.

DANCE SIOUX (5) showed smart progress from her debut 3rd to win next time out and is taken to confirm the form of that authoritative May 19 success with victory in this Listed event. After finishing 2nd in both UK starts, including at this level last time, DOROTHY LAWRENCE (4) arrives in France with legitimate ambitions and could fight for honours. THE FIXER (1), as the only male entrant, concedes weight all round but is likely to make his presence felt too. Debut winner FLERS (2) could be anyth

(2) Bonika	3	J P v'd Merwe	J S Snaith	Last of seven (over 6f here) latest, the first and fourth won since; healthy career strike-rate but not really built on success in a fillies handicap in November at Kenilworth; can be taken on
(3) Fun Zone	3	A Domeyer	C Bass-Robinson	Beaten narrowly at 11-2 in a stakes race here (1m) last month with two of these rivals behind; on a lengthy losing run; has struck up a good partnership with this rider, who is back on board; one to be interested in if backing up last run
(4) Spywing	3	C Zackey	G S Kotzen	Ran respectably at 5-1 here over 6f last month, that form has substance (thrown up two next-time-out winners)
(5) Fleeting	4	L Mxothwa	B Crawford	Upped to 1m1½f in a stakes race two weeks ago here when sixth of eight (7-1)

This looks trappy but GIMMEAFIRST gets the nod. She can overturn recent placings with Fun Zone and Miss Greenlight and has been very consistent of late. Inara's Dynasty will attract market support.

4th (10) Happy Danover	6	J Travers	S T Provoost	Useful sort that seldom disappoints when applied. Is confirmed here and looks eminently capable of making the frame
1st (8) Hoscotte De Maupas	6	A Collette	F Andrieu	Jumps out of the amateur category for a crack at this trophy and, given the distance advantage and current condition, looks a threat to HURON (11)

(11) Huron	6	A Laurent	A Laurent	Excellent servant with nothing to prove in this category and the nature of his Amiens victory augurs well for his chances of repeating
(12) Hikka	6	L Aube	P Corniere	By now has a future in the other discipline and will not be given a hard race
(13) Gloss Fouteau	7	A Dreux	A Dreux	Lost his way at the end of last season and has picked up where he left off

After just the one re-entry race, HURON (11) has been in excellent shape since and even though on the second line, he still looks good enough to confirm his Amiens victory. That said, HOSCOTTE DE MAUPAS (8) is as consistent as they come and with a 25m head-start will bid to end her streak of second places. HAPPY DANOVER (10) left a fine impression here last month and can make the frame this time. Recent winner in the provinces, HANACK DE VIVOIN (4) is another for the shortlist.

(3) Lia Fail	2	Gary Carroll	Michael Mulvany	Respectable efforts in maidens at Naas and Roscommon, possibly not quite getting home on second occasion over extended 7f; slight drop in trip could suit but needs to improve on what she's shown so far to play major role.
3rd (7) Zona Verde	2	Ronan Whelan	K J Condon	Daughter of Calyx chased home the smart River Tiber on Navan debut in April but disappointing favourite at Cork since, showed early speed but faded tamely in final furlong on testing ground; much quicker ground here could suit so not one to readily rule out.
1st (5) Rush Queen	2	Ben Coen	Adrian McGuinness	50,000gns breeze-up buy ran well for long way on Curragh debut last weekend until weakening into midfield over 6f; all the better for that experience.
(6) Zelestial	2	Declan McDonogh	Joseph Patrick O'Brien	Zoustar filly showed speed for much of the way when creditable fifth of 12 behind subsequent Group 3 winner Givemethebeatboys in Navan maiden last month on soft; good chance she will improve for this better ground so don't rule out.
4th (2) Blue Poppy	2	Chris Hayes	D K Weld	Blue Point filly is second foal; dam 6f-7f winner (RPR 99), sister to 1m Group 2 winner Sovereign Debt, and half-sister to 7f Group 3 winner Puff; nicely-bred newcomer for whom market may prove best guide.
2nd (1) Ashwiyaa	2	Shane Foley	M D O'Callaghan	Sioux Nation filly; cost 12,500Euros as a foal and £26,000 as a yearling; dam unraced half-sister to three winners including Suedois (6f-1m including US Grade 1); promising recent Cork debut, keeping on nicely over 5f to finish third without matching the front two (winner has run well since); should appreciate this longer trip and likely major player.

The Cork run of ASHWIYAA was franked by the winner of that race at Tipperary during the week and with this longer trip likely to suit, she looks the one to beat. Rush Queen, Zelestial and Zona Verde have all shown enough to warrant place claims, although the Weld newcomer Blue Poppy could emerge the major threat. [Alan Hewison]

(4) Ferrybridge	5	Mark McDonagh	Michael Hourigan	Best run when fifth at Listowel last autumn, in front of How Decc on that occasion; moderate seventh over 2m here last month, suggesting that plenty of improvement is required.
(6) How Decc	5	Cian Quirke	E Seymour	Managed a couple of respectable runs last August/September, notably when close up in fifth at Killarney; poor in two attempts this year.
2nd (3) El Champo	5	P J O'Hanlon	P J Rothwell	Second in a maiden point at Lingstown in March; raced prominently until fading late over 2m3f here a month ago, beaten around 20l in fifth; open to improvement.
(2) Diamond Union	6	Mike O'Connor	E J O'Grady	Went close in a 1m3f maiden at Killarney last October; looked regressive on the Flat at Dundalk in March/Apri; blinkered now after a moderate handicap hurdle run; could be given some sort of chance based on his handicap rating of 97.
(11) Zaghraf	4	Thomas Reilly	Leanne Breen	Satisfactory first run over hurdles when sixth in a 23-runner maiden at Navan; put a blot on his record when a disappointing favourite on the Flat at Gowran subsequently; has changed stable since.
(1) Arnacoeur	5	Tom Kelly	D E Fitzgerald	Two bumper runs last autumn; now of some interest after finishing third in maiden hurdles at this venue and at Ballinrobe; beaten more than 20l on the latter occasion, so needs to find a bit extra.
1st (12) Flidais	5	Liam Quinlan	John Patrick Ryan	Ran twice in bumpers; stepped up from her first hurdles run when a pleasing second over a shorter trip here in April; not nearly as good when she weakened from two out over 2m3f on latest; that raises an element of doubt but good chance of reaching the money if she stays.
(9) Summer Gale	5	Conor Smithers	Mrs John Harrington	Well-bred gelding, by Camelot out of a US Grade 1 winner; fair maiden on the Flat in three races in the latter part of last season; also managed a good bumper run at Cork last summer, 4l third behind Encanto Bruno who later beat the smart Strong Leader at Cheltenham; potentially a cut above these rivals if fit and ready for hurdling debut after a break.
3rd (10) Rocket Spirit	4	Cian Cullinan	P G Fahey	Poor form on the Flat and a similar story on his first two starts over hurdles; showed huge improvement when second over 2m3f at this venue; 200-1 chance then, and the winner was 66-1, so there may be a doubt about the merit of the form.

Though lacking hurdling experience and a recent run, Jessica Harrington's runner SUMMER GALE is interesting on Flat and bumper form. He may be good enough to cope with Rocket Spirit who showed massive improvement here last month. Zaghraf, Diamond Union and Flidais may also feature. [Alan Sweetman]

2nd (1) Giant Madrik	7	B Rochard	D Stoehr	Reliable trotter that seldom lets the side down. Steps back up in class following his amateur sanction but can set the record straight

A fairly homogenous group this but a tentative nod still goes to FEUX VERTS (7) who has made fine progress since returning from his extended layoff. Hugues Monthule will want to be wary of the hardy FRISSON DU QUESNE (5) who set a personal best when winning at La Capelle last month, and the faithful GIANT MADRIK (1) who seldom puts a foot out of place. Very adept on these tighter circuits, FILOU SMILING (11) is one not to be ignored.

1st (8) Sweetest Rose	3	Gary Carroll	G M Lyons	Front-runner finished runner-up twice in Dunadalk maidens and again at Limerick on turf return in April behind a subsequent winner; barely got home over 1m at Naas on latest start but ran up to form in first-time blinkers; first attempt at 6f here and looks to have the speed for it so bold bid expected and yard coming into form.

Several closely matched here but the drop in trip could be just what SWEETEST ROSE needs and she can get off the mark at the seventh attempt. Sibyl Charm can push her close, while Ferrari Desert could improve enough from a promising recent debut effort to feature. Market support for Jessica Harrington's debutante Nelda should be noted.

(3) Hinitsa Bay	2	David Egan	Ian Williams	78,000gns foal, 95,000gns yearling, 170,000gns (breeze-up) 2yo; No Nay Never half-brother to winners Chillingham (1m2f/1m4f) and Mahthouf (Qatar 1m-9.5f); sales information suggests he's a potentially useful colt.
4th (5) Mushterek	2	Oisin Orr	Richard Fahey	Showed promise with his third-place finish, albeit about 6l behind the winner, at Ayr (6f, good) and looks open to improvement with that experience under his belt; possibilities if coping with the drop in distance.
2nd (8) Painite	2	Kevin Stott	Richard Hannon	11,500gns foal, 28,000euros yearling, £120,000 (breeze-up) 2yo; Eqtidaar half-sister to three winners, notably Isle Of Wolves (7f 2yo/1m2f); dam Listed-placed 9.7f winner; respected connections; interesting newcomer.
1st (4) Jasour	2	Neil Callan	Clive Cox	Nearly made a winning debut at Salisbury (5f, good; neck second) despite showing clear signs of greenness by jumping a path in the early stages and edging left late on; sets the standard and should be wiser this time.

As regards the runners with experience, JASOUR has the clear best chance on form. Based on sales prices Hinitsa Bay, Painite and Nazalan are potentially useful newcomers, in that order of preference. Check the market signals to complete the picture.[Steve Boow]

2nd (6) Simpletwistoffaith	6	Mark McDonagh	Patrick J F Hassett	Managed two fourth placings at this venue last summer, beaten less than 10l both times; failed to match that form at Wexford on final start for Noel Glynn; place possibility if finding his best form again on stable debut.
1st (4) Men Of Dreams	5	Shane Fitzgerald	J F Levins	20-race Flat maiden; made an encouraging hurdling debut when third at this venue in April (runner-up won at Clonmel on her next start); disappointing at Ballinrobe, dropped right away after two out.
4th (14) Young Darleen	7	Ben Harvey	R P Cody	Point winner at Dromahane in December 2021; has shown a fair standard for form since joining this stable last winter; recent second in 2m4f maiden at Wexford provides plenty of encouragement, since the winner was a Willie Mullins-trained odds-on shot who had been running in Grade 1 races.
3rd (2) Chiefs Kingdom	5	James O'Sullivan	Paul Nolan	Half-brother to the very useful Ballymoy, winner of nine races; ran well at long odds first time out at Thurles last December; finished mid-division in a good maiden at Leopardstown's Christmas meeting; leading chance now following fine second at Killarney three weeks ago.

Paul Nolan's CHIEFS KINGDOM ran in two strong maidens last winter and can go one better than on his recent return at Killarney. The obvious danger is Young Darleen, whose Wexford second was achieved behind a short-priced favourite trained by Willie Mullins. Men Of Dreams and Simpletwistoffaith may be involved in a battle for the minor money. [Alan Sweetman]

(1) Prince De Montfort	5	C Demuro	D&p Prod'Homme	Gaining momentum now after a 5-month break and has proven competitive off his current mark. That said, he is probably more effective with the sting out of the ground
(14) Barbadin	6	Eddy Hardouin	D&p Prod'Homme	Has looked better than ever this year but is more effective over distances from 2800m to 3200m, so can be ruled out here
(8) Pendulum Valley	4	L Roussel	E D Monfort	Absent since finishing 3rd in the coveted Listed Grand Prix du Departement, so there are doubts regarding his fitness. Must now also prove himself in a handicap off his current mark

(7) Hillarante	5	C Soumillon	J Reynier	Up a total of 8kg for her two successes in Quinte+ races and showed her limitations in the Grand Prix de Lyon-Parilly recently. Has only a place chance
(4) Behtar	4	M Barzalona	F Graffard	Consistent and in good form, so much so that he was deemed worthy of participating in the 3100m Group III Prix de Barbeville. Can do better now in a handicap
4th (10) Gaidar	4	B Murzabayev	A Fabre	Well-bred sort who has been disappointing in handicap races but Andre Fabre retains faith in him at this level. Capable of doing better over this distance

After proving himself in handicap races last season, most notably when finishing 2nd at this meeting, UTAMARO (12) gets the nod here having been carefully prepared for this Quinte+ and is capable of winning again. THUNDERSPEED (13) caught the eye in the Prix du Pantheon last time and could give cheek to the selection if confirming that recent improvement.

3rd (1) Kym Eyre	7	Isabel Williams	Evan Williams	Came under pressure early but that didn't stop her winning at Stratford (3m3f, good to soft) in April; a 6lb rise may not stop her if she's in the same good form as last time; ran well on good ground in March.
1st (3) Mystic Man	6	Ben Bromley	Oliver Sherwood	Point winner who improved upon his hurdle form to win on chase debut at Southwell (2m4f, good) three weeks ago; this lightly raced 6yo could have more to offer over fences and there's every chance he'll stay 3m; player.

The lightly raced 6yo MYSTIC MAN is taken to make it 2-2 over fences having won on his chase debut at Southwell three weeks ago. Kym Eyre also arrives on the back of a win and is an obvious danger.[Ben Hutton]

(5) Emorcee	3	Declan McDonogh	David Marnane	Ran well to chase home a clear-cut winner over this trip at Dundalk in April but never really landed a blow back in trip at Cork following month; return to this trip to suit but others preferred on handicap debut.
4th (2) Anann	3	Wayne Hassett	Joseph Patrick O'Brien	Didn't really progress from her Dundalk maiden win over 7f in January although wasn't beaten far on latest start in similar contest; back from a break for turf debut and 10lb claim a positive.
3rd (7) Portreath	3	Shane Foley	Mrs John Harrington	Unexposed entering handicap company with cheekpieces tried; first attempt on quick ground so plenty of reasons for possible improvement and yard in fine form too.
(1) Rumbled Again	3	J M Sheridan	Denis Gerard Hogan	Progressive this term, notably on better ground over this trip when third at Cork and when decisively landing a competitive Gowran contest last month from Rathbranchurch; well suited by a sound surface and 9lb rise may not prevent a big run here.
(4) Rathbranchurch	3	Gary Carroll	Michael Mulvany	Returned in improved form this spring, finishing second in testing conditions at Sligo and better again on quicker ground over this trip at Gowran last month when second to Rumbled Again, coming clear of the remainder but comfortably held; 4lb better of with that rival here so every chance.
2nd (6) The Snapper	3	Ronan Whelan	Jack W Davison	Cork win came in testing conditions but ran well in similar contest on quicker ground last month; pretty exposed at this stage and others likely more progressive; headgear combination worn recently now discarded.

An interesting rematch between RUMBLED AGAIN (nap) and Rathbranchurch who dominated a 45-75 handicap at Gowran recently and steps up in grade here. The runner-up is 4lb better off but the winner had a bit to spare that day and is taken to confirm the form. Portreath is the dark horse of the race on handicap debut with cheekpieces tried.

1st (3) Lord Of Biscay	3	David Egan	Roger Varian	Half-brother to the yard's 2022 QEII winner Bayside Boy; duly showed plenty of promise with his debut success at Yarmouth (7f, good) and perhaps found the heavy ground unsuitable in the Horris Hill when last seen; remains open to progress and commands respect back down in class.

Back down in class and returned to better ground, LORD OF BISCAY is taken to confirm the promise of his Yarmouth success. One Night Thunder, a similar type, is the chief danger on the figures.

(6) Knockanard Lady	6	Ben Harvey	P M J Doyle	Beaten favourite in four of her five maiden hurdle attempts, including 6l second at Killarney last time; has been placed in small-field Grade 3 races and gets a fair bit of weight from the winners with Ben Harvey's valuable claim in play; no easy task all the same.
(2) The Short Go	6	Darragh O'Keeffe	Henry De Bromhead	Placed on all four maiden hurdles in 2022, including 8l second behind subsequent dual Grade 1 winner The Nice Guy at Naas; beaten odds-on favourite on only two starts last season; got his career back on track when making all for a comfortable maiden win over 2m4f at Killarney last month; likely to build on that now, good chance trip will suit.
1st (4) What Path	6	Paul Townend	W P Mullins	Galway bumper winner last year on his fourth start after two instances of beaten favouritism; was found to be clinically abnormal when pulled-up in a 3m Listowel maiden hurdle last September, made amends and proved his stamina at Wexford last month; needs to jump better but looks like a decent staying prospect.

If jumping more fluently than when winning a maiden at Wexford What Path has the stamina credentials for this, but preference is for THE SHORT GO who belatedly delivered on the promise of two starts the season before last when winning a 2m4f maiden at Wexford last month.

1st (15) All In Peder	4	Wayne Lordan	Emmet Mullins	Modest form until much improved in first-time cheekpieces and quicker ground to land Gowran handicap last month over just shy of this trip, just lasting it out; 9lb higher now so needs to improve again but possible on this ground.
(14) Red Vermillion	8	Mpumelelo Mjoka	Kevin Thomas Coleman	Fairyhouse and Tramore (2m) winner in 2020 and steady return to form this year (having had a foal), most recently decisive win over 1m5f at Navan last month under today's rider (soft); 8lb rise takes her to a career-high mark and quicker ground to contend with but has to be considered.
2nd (11) Zileo	5	Ronan Whelan	M Halford & T Collins	1m5f winner in France two seasons ago and put behind him some modest Irish form at Leopardstown last month when staying-on second over 1m4f off much reduced mark; not yet proven over this far but respected.
4th (6) Queen Of Seduction	4	Shane Foley	Mrs John Harrington	Placed form last year included second here over 1m4f and off the mark on second attempt this term when scoring over same trip in Roscommon fillies maiden on Thursday, leading halfway and seeing it out strongly; quick reappearance under mandatory 7lb penalty and good chance of staying this longer trip with likely more to offer.

A likeable winner at Roscommon on Thursday on this quicker ground, QUEEN OF SEDUCTION only now appears to be coming into herself and she is taken to follow up over this longer trip back in handicap company. Other recent winners All In Peder and Red Vermillion look likely dangers from the foot of the handicap, with Away To Sea and Zileo others to consider. [Alan Hewison]

(3) Mr Frostie	5	D Ashby	P D Reeves	Gone off the boil a bit recently; finished last of nine here over 6f in January; back from a break; hard enough to fancy
(2) Persistance	4	A Andrews	J M T Stewart	On a long losing run; finished sixth, beaten a fair distance, (open race) two months ago (over 6f here); unlikely to trouble the principals
(6) Easy Money	2	J Jacobs	P Botha	Had three of these ahead of her when beaten just under 4l last month here; receives weight-for-age allowance; opposable
(1) Captive Moon	4	J P v'd Merwe	A N Marcus	You have to go back a long way to find his only win; came home seventh, beaten just over 5l, in an open race here (7f) latest; blinkers return after left off last time but only limited appeal
(8) Wordsworth	5	D De Gouveia	G W Ennion	Just the one win to his name; not disgraced when sixth of eight last month (over 5f here); blinkers been left off; may be vulnerable
(12) Charlie Malone	3	G Wright	C Bass-Robinson	Was held in tenth in an open race here last month; not always shown an awful lot since winning a maiden plate at Kenilworth in November
(4) Final Move	4	O Noach	V H Marshall	Fourth, not beaten that far (20-1) here over 5f two months ago; has had lots of chances since last win; he can be taken on
(5) Seeking Peace	4	G Van Niekerk	J M T Stewart	Has maintained her consistent level of form; respectable effort here over 6f last month
(9) Air Of Royalty	4	K Steyn	P P Kruyer	Narrow scorer in a fillies race (over 6f here) latest (Seeking Peace behind); has to be taken seriously
(10) Winter Pearl	4	R Fourie	R Maingard	Been generally quiet since successful in a maiden plate at Scottsville in August; finished last of nine with blinkers reapplied here (6f, open race) five weeks ago; has posted some fair efforts in defeat and could have a say
(11) Masked Vigilante	4	L Mxothwa	B Crawford	Fair effort (beaten just under 2l) here last month; has not been in the winners' enclosure for a while now; easy to see him making an impression as has shown signs of promise
(7) Tuscan Gold	3	C Zackey	A E Sands	Ran respectably at 6-1 here (5f) with three of these rivals behind him latest; likely to be involved

A tight contest. Masked Vigilante is one for the shortlist even if the losing run tempers enthusiasm while Winter Pearl is capable of better than his rather disappointing latest effort. However, TUSCAN GOLD is the one to keep on side. He bids for a second course success and can confirm superiority with Wordsworth, Easy Money and Masked Vigilante who were behind him last time.

3rd (7) Millicent	6	Kieran O'Neill	Kevin Frost	Ran respectably over an inadequate 6f at Chelmsford last month (bled from nose); however, usually seen in Class 6 and faces a stiffer task from 5lb out of weights in this higher grade.
2nd (5) Swing To The Stars	4	David Egan	Ian Williams	Promising fifth at Chelmsford (1m, AW) on debut; has regressed in two subsequent starts but may turn things around now handicapping in first-time hood; not dismissed.
(6) Gypsy Whisper	6	Elisha Whittington	Scott Dixon	May be sharper with Doncaster reappearance under her belt; defied a 2lb higher mark at same venue last July and has a fighting chance on that form; however, that's her only win since 2020.
1st (3) Eponina	9	Theodore Ladd	Michael Appleby	Veteran of the field and thoroughly exposed but she's a three-time C&D scorer and races off a workable mark back here; possibilities if bouncing back from latest effort (form dipped).
4th (2) Mogwai	4	Tom Marquand	S Woods	Five-race maiden, formerly trained in France; made an encouraging British debut last month and ties in with Clipsham Gold on that Kempton AW running; open to progress and looks interesting.
(4) Finery	6	Oisin Murphy	Michael Appleby	Stablemate of Eponina; has a record of 6-22 on AW compared to only 1-9 on turf; however, runs off a lower mark back in this sphere and has Oisin Murphy up for first time; not without a chance.
(1) Clipsham Gold	4	Daniel Muscutt	Kevin Philippart De Foy	Record of 2-3 on AW this year, looking better than ever, and the latest success was gained in comfortable fashion; scored twice on turf last July and warrants respect back in this sphere.

Armed with a 6lb pull, unexposed ex-French filly MOGWAI could well reverse Kempton placings with Clipsham Gold who is respected all the same. The selection has very low mileage and looks open to progress in Britain. The Mick Appleby-trained mares Eponina and Finery can't be dismissed.[Steve Boow]

(13) Any Day Now	8	Liam McKenna	Edward Cawley	Fourth over 2m4f at Sligo last year but nothing in two subsequent runs and has been off six months; there's some ability in there though and headgear reapplied.
(10) Daring Sarah	5	Cian Cullinan	W J Martin	Moderate form so far in bumpers and maiden hurdles; handicap debut.

(5) Petite Mike	5	Phillip Enright	G Ahern	Not shown much in three maidens this year but it could be a different story with headgear fitted for handicap debut.
(15) Drimsree Lad	12	Aileen O'Sullivan	S Michael Millar	Good third of 16 at Fairyhouse in November and should come on from C&D sixth in April but was fair way behind Flemensreva then.
(4) Policy Breaker	6	Jack G Gilligan	Paul John Gilligan	Beaten in the region of 30l in three maidens last month, so wasn't disgraced at all, and headgear on for handicap bow.
4th (12) Ranger Billy	7	Mike O'Connor	Eoin Doyle	Has shown little although his seventh of 16 at Punchestown in February wasn't too bad and he ran okay in a good ground maiden at Limerick last year.
(14) Ask Dee	11	Benjamin P Kennedy	Paul W Flynn	Nine months off but was fourth over further at Sligo last summer and local yard has been flying of late; veteran mare probably has place chance at best though.
(17) The Bog Garden	5		Michael Hourigan	First reserve; not shamed in claimer at Punchestown and makes handicap debut here.
1st (2) More Info	8	Daniel King	Denis Gerard Hogan	Bumper winner on good ground; good run behind subsequent facile winner over 2m3f at Punchestown on second run back after two years off and another trying this trip for first time.

(9) Chief Seattle	8	Liam Quinlan	John Patrick Ryan	Won over hurdles and fences at Ballinrobe last summer and trip not an issue but eight month lay-off could be.
3rd (11) Flemensreva	5	Sean Flanagan	Paul Nolan	Much improved effort when second of 16 over C&D in April and that brings her right into the equation off 2lb higher mark.
(1) Tango Theatre	8	Ben Harvey	John C McConnell	Still a maiden after 14 starts under rules but solid efforts off this mark after her winter break and now goes three miles for the first time.
(8) A Dublin Job	6	E Walsh	Ciaran Murphy	Stays this trip well and beaten less than a length at Tipperary last year; was in second place when coming down at the last at Downpatrick and could well make the frame.
2nd (6) Tuff Days	6	J J Slevin	Michael Barry	Point-to-point winner was third of 15 over 2m6f at Ballinrobe on Tuesday and that was only his second try in handicaps.

After showing a lot more when second over C&D in April, FLEMENSREVA is chosen to go one place better. From a good family, More Info is interesting on this step up in trip after a decent run last time. [Mark Nunan]

(8) Overtougeorge	9	Charlie Todd	Charles & Adam Pogson	Well treated on last year's best hurdle form and he was returning from an absence when pulled up in a chase at Southwell three weeks ago; however, he's never really shone over fences and others are preferred.
(1) Order Of St John	6	Kielan Woods	D J Jeffreys	Won four-runner maiden hurdle at Leicester (1m7f, good to firm) last November and soft ground may not have suited in Sandown handicap next time; however, he's failed to shine on the Flat this year which dents confidence in his claims on this chase debut.
(6) Estate Italiana	6	Philip Armson	Alexandra Dunn	Won at Ludlow (2m, good) in February and enters calculations on that performance, but he hasn't hit the same heights the next twice.
1st (3) Go Fox	8	Jack Quinlan	Neil King	His mark continues to fall and he showed signs of spark at Southwell (2m4f, good) three weeks ago, but he was nevertheless soundly beaten in fourth and needs to find something extra here.
(5) Pittsburg	7	Ben Poste	Ryan Potter	Didn't threaten last July on sole chase start (2m, good) but it wasn't a bad run and he was a good second over hurdles (2m1f, good) the following month on his last jumps outing; some good performances on Flat AW this year and not ruled out now back over fences.
2nd (7) Uncle O	9	Harry Cobden	Clare Hobson	His losing run goes back 13 races to July 2021 and this is his first start since last December (wind surgery since); however, he goes well fresh and was in pretty good form when last seen; could be thereabouts.
3rd (4) Cloudy Wednesday	7	Lewis Stones	Caroline Fryer	Won here (2m5f, good) in February and back to form to score at Huntingdon (2m4f, good) 12 days ago; there is a question mark regarding this drop back in trip but he's not short of pace and is respected up just 2lb.
(2) Arbennig	7	Will Featherstone	Jamie Snowden	Won over C&D (good) last May and returned from an absence with a fair third at Ludlow (2m, good to soft) last month; could build on that latest performance today and he's one to consider.

This could go to UNCLE O, who has had wind surgery since his last run last December and goes well fresh. C&D winner Arbennig is feared most following an encouraging return at Ludlow, with recent Huntingdon winner Cloudy Wednesday next on the list.[Ben Hutton]

(14) Evariste Du Bourg	9	L Baudouin	S Guarato	Modest recent form is probably reflective of his chance. Hard to make a case for and best to ignore
(15) Edition Gema	9	P Beasse	M Sassier	Modest recent form in both codes and with a 50 meters starting handicap, has a mountain to climb

EMERAUDE DE BAIS (16) brings plenty of class into the race and despite her 50 meters initial handicap, she is capable of winning this competitive turf event. A sound winner of a similar race in South West France last time out, GAUDEO (7) is an obvious leading contender once again. GALET STED (6) always gives everything he has and is sure to be involved. HERODO BELLO (3) looks the best chance on the front row.

2nd (3) Livio Milo	3	Chris Hayes	D K Weld	Went close at Leopardstown last October and not too far off that level of form on latest of two starts this term, staying on late into fourth over 7f at Gowran in first-time cheekpieces; visor tried this time and shapes as if this extra furlong will suit.
1st (4) Narmar	3	Gary Carroll	Henry De Bromhead	Improved from run to run, notably Killarney maiden over this trip last month when only caught on post, having raced keenly and quickened clear over a furlong out (first two clear); major claims.
3rd (6) Sea Gardens	3	Dylan Browne McMonagle	Joseph Patrick O'Brien	Looked green when only beaten roughly 1l at Leopardstown on sole 2yo outing in a maiden which worked out well; disappointing favourite on Cork reappearance however, getting unbalanced in final furlong but not beaten that far; respected all the same.

Quite an open-looking maiden. NARMAR nearly nicked a similar race at Killarney last month when a clear second and narrowly gets preference here over Highland Rahy, Livio Milo and Sea Gardens. [Alan Hewison]

1st (1) Major Partnership	8	Oisin Murphy	Saeed bin Suroor	Godolphin 8yo who hinted at retaining ability in Meydan contests early this year; it's a long time since he's shown solid British form but current mark is workable judged on peak performances.

(4) Encourageable	4	P J McDonald	James Horton	Successful twice (on AW/soft) in his first season last year; midfield in heavy-ground Lincoln on sole run this term; tongue-tie now applied; may still have more to offer and can't be dismissed.
3rd (2) Greatgadian	5	David Egan	Roger Varian	Record of 3-7 on AW compared to just 1-13 on grass; however, the sole turf win came at Nottingham (1-1 here) and he has dropped to a workable mark; ran respectably in this year's Lincoln and didn't have the ideal track position at Newmarket later in April; has clear possibilities.
2nd (3) Point Lynas	4	Callum Rodriguez	Edward Bethell	Career has been steadily progressive; went very close in the competitive Hambleton at York (1m, good to firm) most recently, posting a new career-best RPR; big player on the back of that good effort.
(5) Al Agaila	4	James Doyle	Simon & Ed Crisford	Progressive filly who still has low mileage; completed an AW hat-trick during the winter, the latest win in valuable fillies' handicap at Lingfield (1m2f); could well have even more to offer; warrants respect despite lacking recent match practice, dropping back in trip and returning to turf.

Off a workable mark returned to the scene of his sole turf success, GREATGADIAN gets the verdict. Point Lynas, who ran very well in the Hambleton, is second on the shortlist. Al Agaila is greatly feared, assuming she can continue her progress back on turf.[Steve Boow]

1st (3) State Of Bliss	5	Jack Quinlan	Neil King	Talented on the Flat and he was a good third at Kempton (2m, good) last month on his second hurdle/stable start; not quite at the same level when well-beaten second here (2m4f, good) seven days later but he retains potential in this code and is a leading candidate today.

This could be a good opportunity for talented Flat performer STATE OF BLISS to get off the mark over hurdles. The Dan Skelton-trained Thorpeness is second choice ahead of his former stablemate Book Of Secrets.[Ben Hutton]

(13) Midnight Treasure	4	Killian Leonard	R P Burns	Has finished well down the field in five handicaps thus far and is difficult to have any confidence in.
(8) Valhalla's Dream	5	Jack Kearney	R P Burns	Showed promise in his maidens and was a good fifth on handicap debut at the Curragh back in May 21 but has failed to make much of an impact since returning from 14-month break last October; last seen finishing 10th of 12 in a Dundalk handicap in April, racing freely in rear; doesn't make much appeal.
(17) Vulture Peak	5	Rory Cleary	Laura Hourigan	Hasn't convinced in four handicaps so far and needs a big step forward if he is to figure here.
3rd (14) Pink Socks	4	Ronan Whelan	Timothy Doyle	Had failed to make any impact in four handicap starts last season but offered something to work on when beaten 6¼l into seventh at Gowran last month after seven months off; another step forward required.
2nd (5) Sunset Nova	7	Andrew Slattery	Andrew Slattery	Fair handicapper; 14 runs since last win back in August 22; finished 10th of 15 at Roscommon last time out over 7f, hanging right in the straight; dropped 2lb; stepped up in trip; won over this distance on the AW last year; others have more pressing claims.
(6) Phoenix Open	7	Ben Coen	S M Duffy	Winner of a firm ground handicap over this distance at Gowran last August; failed to build on that since, although was a good fourth on the AW over 7f in December before a below-par effort back at the same track on latest start; off 142 days.
(7) Leclerc	5	Cian MacRedmond	Adrian McGuinness	Winner of a pair of 7f handicaps on the AW during the winter but has largely been out of form since in seven starts; others preferred.
(2) Princess Rajj	4	Shane Foley	Mrs John Harrington	Finished well down the field in a handicap at Cork last time out and has been out of form in four starts so far this season; mark is quickly tumbling as a result however and she is now 10lb lower for when landing a 7f handicap at this track last season; handily weighted if she can come back to her best.
(1) Asisaid	4	Gavin Ryan	P J F Murphy	Won a heavy ground handicap at Leopardstown on reappearance but finished last of 16 the next twice; got firmly back on track when beaten 5½l into sixth back at that track last month, seeing out the trip well; needs to show he can back that up here.
(12) Manhattan Dandy	6	Robert Whearty	Thomas Coyle	41-race maiden but ran well at Roscommon when last seen, finishing third beaten 2½l by Blue Peak; travelled strongly on that occasion before hanging right under pressure; tends to race up with the pace; has a definite chance if building on previous effort from a good draw.
(15) Tara Power	5	J M Sheridan	Keith Henry Clarke	Beaten 7l into sixth at Bellewstown a month ago just a day after finishing eighth in a 1m1f handicap at Leopardstown; dropped 1lb; sole win came on the AW back in 2021; doesn't look obviously well handicapped.
(10) Blue Wood	7	Alan Persse	M A Cahill	Won AW handicap on penultimate start, edging out Cherry Bloom by a nose who landed a handicap on Thursday; finished eighth of 15 back on the turf at Roscommon last month, having been hampered at halfway and suffering interference; dropped 1lb and has an each-way chance.
4th (11) Han Solo	7	Jamie Powell	Augustine Leahy	Off 191 days; last seen beaten 5¾l into sixth at Dundalk over 1m2½f; stays further; can be slowly away and usually races off the pace; needs things to fall right for him.
(9) Swiss Army Officer	8	Conor Stone-Walsh	Kevin Thomas Coleman	Got his head in front after nearly two years without a win when staying on strongly to land a handicap at Roscommon by ½l last time out, suited by the strong gallop; raised 5lb for that; slight increase in trip will be in his favour; has struggled to back up wins in the past but has strong claims nonetheless.
(16) What Adaay	5	Dylan Browne McMonagle	Patrick Martin	14-race maiden; last seen beaten 1½l into second by The Bog Bank in a handicap at Bellewstown; off 247 days; has run well at the track before when finishing third off this mark last September and has definite claims if he's ready to go on his reappearance.
(4) Ferrybank	5	Chris Hayes	T M Walsh	16lb lower than her last victory 12 runs ago but did show something to work on finishing 11th of 25 at Cork last time out after seven months off; extra distance should suit; has a chance if she can come on for her reappearance.
1st (3) Dutch Glory	4	Siobhan Rutledge	Ross O'Sullivan	Winner of a 7f AW handicap in January; ran a credible race after four months off when tenth at Cork last time out; fourth on AW on previous effort over this trip; will need to settle at this distance but is in the mix if she takes a step forward from her comeback effort.

A difficult handicap to solve but a chance can be taken on MANHATTAN DANDY. He is a 41-race maiden but put in an encouraging effort when third at Roscommon, travelling notably well and he can finally break his duck. Swiss Army Officer stayed on strongly to win at the same track but has found it difficult to follow up victories in the past, while Princess Rajj would be a danger if a return to this track sparks a revival.

Info	OR	Days since last run	Age	Jockey
(10) Ella's Angel	3	Kieran O'Neill	Jake Thomas Coulson	Has achieved little in three AW races; transformation is required on turf/handicap debut.
(4) Ocean Ridge	3	Tom Eaves	Seamus Durack	Unconvincing form over 7f at maiden/novice level; however, the fitting of tongue-tie, new trip and switch to handicap company are possible sources of improvement.
(6) Haaf A Diamond	3	Alec Voikhansky	Kevin Frost	Minor form over 6f/7f at novice/maiden level; bred to be suited by this longer distance, so may take a step forward on handicap debut.
4th (9) Goblet Of Fire	3	Rowan Scott	Nigel Tinkler	Not disgraced in similar event at Redcar (7f) a fortnight ago but he needs improvement to get off the mark; 0-6 and yet to be placed.
(3) Milvus	3	Oisin Murphy	Denis Coakley	Finished behind a couple of these rivals at Bath on handicap debut and still has weak form claims; however, looks a potential improver with Oisin Murphy up for first time.
3rd (1) Lucidity	3	Daniel Muscutt	Ed Dunlop	Has hinted at ability in 7f contests, notably when catching the eye on penultimate start; gives the impression she'll do better now handicapping and upped to 1m; interesting.
2nd (5) Brabusach	3	Marco Ghiani	Ivan Furtado	Six-race maiden; has posted a couple of solid efforts (form has substance) since switched to turf and ties in with War Chant on Bath running latest (bit better than bare result); possibilities.
(8) Rubellite	3	Tom Marquand	William Haggas	Finished sixth at Redcar (7f) two weeks ago when making handicap debut; still has only minor RPRs but she's from a top stable and may do better yet; not dismissed.
1st (2) War Chant	3	Ray Dawson	Rae Guest	7f winner at Brighton last October; ran creditably over 1m the last twice, finishing second at Redcar then close fifth at Bath; in-form contender who holds solid claims.

With his two turf efforts having substance, BRABUSACH may be the answer. War Chant, who ties in with the selection and has similarly solid claims, looks the chief threat on form. Several others are possible improvers, most notably Lucidity and Rubellite.[Steve Boow]

(13) William Of Wykeham	8	J J Slevin	Mark Michael McNiff	Useful stayer over hurdles a while back but well held in first two starts over fences; one for handicaps after this.
(17) Sphagnum	6		J P Broderick	Third reserve; decent handicap hurdler over this sort of trip last summer but shown little in two chase starts.

(14) Downtown Queen	6	Conor McNamara	Henry De Bromhead	Won two hurdles last summer before having a few mishaps; bred for chasing and not one to rule out by any means.
4th (3) Harvey's Quay	7	Jody McGarvey	E J O'Grady	Hurdles winner was well beaten in Killarney handicap last month on fourth start over fences and Changing The Rules looks like the one in green and gold to focus on.
1st (11) Too Bright	5	Sean Flanagan	Noel Meade	Flat and hurdles winner yet to complete over fences; clear round the priority on third chase start.
(7) Rotten Row	6	Donagh Meyler	Anthony Mullins	Dual hurdles winner ran quite well over C&D last month when fourth on second chase start; better for that first run of the year too.
(10) Themanintheboots	5	Ricky Doyle	Gordon Elliott	Maiden was a little better on second chase start at Downpatrick but probably needs handicaps to be competitive.
(12) Western Comandor	5	Liam Quinlan	John Patrick Ryan	Went close in bumpers and won Down Royal maiden hurdle in March; from family of smart chaser Hunt Ball and has first start over fences here.
(8) Summer Tide	8	Phillip Enright	C Byrnes	Decent placed form in handicap hurdles last summer; respectable 20l fourth in useful Killarney novice on chase bow and that was after a lengthy lay-off.
(15) The Big Chap	6		Paul W Flynn	First reserve; useful hurdler comes here in form and has won around here; chase debut.
(9) Takarengo	7	Jack Foley	Thomas Mullins	Never been the slickest of hurdlers but promising second on chase bow at Clonmel in April and good run on the Flat since.
3rd (4) Itwasfate	6	Darragh O'Keeffe	Henry De Bromhead	Won maiden hurdle on good ground here last summer and ran well in Punchestown festival handicap last time after a winter break; chasing debut.
2nd (2) Changing The Rules	6	Simon Torrens	Mrs John Harrington	115-rated hurdler so ideally treated by race conditions and getting the hang of chasing; best effort so far when third in useful contest at Ballinrobe and that form has been franked.
(5) Magheralin Mick	6	Keith Donoghue	Gavin Cromwell	Behind Takarengo when fourth on chase debut at Clonmel; third over 2m6f here since.

With the form of his Ballinrobe third working out well, CHANGING THE RULES (nap) is the selection but this is a competitive contest and Itwasfate and Summer Tide are two likely dangers. [Mark Nunan]

2nd (1) Hatcher	10	Tristan Durrell	Dan Skelton	Good third at Ascot (2m, good to soft) in April and, after pulled up in a hot handicap at Aintree, he was a fair third of six at Warwick (2m, good to firm) 11 days ago; drops back in grade and holds solid claims.
(4) Name In Lights	7	Brendan Powell	Joe Tizzard	Two hurdle wins last spring (1m7f/2m, good); his jumping has been an issue on all three chase starts but he still managed a fair third at Kempton (2m4f, good) last time; could be a contender if minimising the blunders.
(5) Pawpaw	6	Sam Twiston-Davies	David Bridgwater	Won on the first two occasions he wore this visor, at Hereford (2m5f, good to soft) and Fontwell (2m5f, good to soft) with a third of four at Plumpton in between (3m1f, good; in cheekpieces); could have more to offer in the headgear, in which he was declared to run in the 6.15 at Stratford yesterday.
1st (2) Quoi De Neuf	9	Harry Cobden	Evan Williams	Below par over hurdles at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) last month but in good form on good going at Ludlow earlier this year, with a win (2m5f, hurdles) and a close second (3m, fences); respected now back on better ground.

The Dan Skelton-trained HATCHER is taken to capitalise on the drop back down in trip. Quoi De Neuf is a likely danger now back on better ground, while Name In Lights can pose a big threat if cutting out the blunders.

(3) Trueba	7	Yudish Geerdharry	Edmond Daniel Linehan	Is down to a handy mark but hasn't shown a great deal on last three outings; only third start for new yard so chance he can bounce back and did put together two solid third-placed efforts back in October/November; needs to recapture best form.
(13) Lofoten	5	Sean D Bowen	P J Rothwell	Well bred and showed glimpses of ability in maidens but has failed to make an impact since switching to handicaps; beaten 10½l into eighth at Gowran last time out; slight drop in trip and eased 3lb.
1st (1) Arch Enemy	4	Sean Bird	Patrick Magee	Has won twice on turf and added an AW victory to his record in January over 1m4f; bit below form on latest start on the AW when beaten 8¾l into seventh; drops back to a mile and is capable of scoring off this mark if he is ready after a small break.
(11) Chica Power	5	Dylan Browne McMonagle	Patrick Martin	First run for Patrick Martin when finishing 13th of 16 in a handicap at Gowran over this distance after 117 days off; dual AW scorer for Ciaran Murphy; will need to come forward markedly from latest effort to land a blow.
(9) Pollanassa	4	Calvin Ngcobo	Kevin Thomas Coleman	Has not shown enough to suggest he is ready to strike in three handicaps so far this season; looks up against it.
(12) Miss Cunning	6	Jessica O'Gorman	Aengus King	Successful over course and distance 12 months ago off a 1lb lower mark; made a winning return from a break at Cork in April when landing a mile handicap, defeating subsequent winner A Shin Undine by ¾l; too bad to be true when last of 15 at Killarney when last seen, having been slowly away; needs to put that behind her.
(7) Hurricane Helen	5	Ben Coen	John Joseph Hanlon	Four-time winner in Britain and has some reasonable efforts to her name in Irish claimers; last seen beaten 7l into fourth at Gowran with rider putting up 2lb overweight, having been slowly away; first run for for new yard and been dropped 2lb back in a handicap.
2nd (14) Well Suited	8	Wayne Lordan	T J O'Mara	Three wins on the AW, two of them coming over this distance; credible effort when sixth at Gowran last month; dropped 1lb; ran well when second at this track back in September 2021; each-way claims.
(2) Macadam's Rock	5	Chris Hayes	Miss Hilary McLoughlin	Dual AW scorer; well held on turf on latest start finishing 15th of 25 at Cork; ran well at this track last season when finishing a close third over slightly shorter off a 4lb higher mark; chance if he can shrug off his latest effort.
(6) Soyounique	6	Luke McAteer	Ciaran Murphy	Won five times in Britain and has ran credibly for this yard a few times, most notably when runner-up at Roscommon last August off a 3lb higher mark and a few decent efforts on the AW earlier this year; return to turf at Leopardstown last time best forgiven as he went off to hard in heavy ground; return to better ground will suit and he has a live chance despite the draw.
(4) Breezy Zoff	4	Gary Carroll	Gavin Cromwell	Got off the mark in heavy ground at the Curragh last October and made a solid reappearance at the Curragh a month ago; proved disappointing at Cork when weakening to finish well beaten; step up in trip will suit but needs to put latest effort behind her.
(17) Wee Pablo	6	Siobhan Rutledge	H Rogers	Not shown a great deal in last three starts for new yard but he does tend to run well at this track, finishing fourth twice and winning off a 7lb higher mark back in April 2021; finished sixth here yesterday.
3rd (5) Simply Sideways	6	Ronan Whelan	Timothy Doyle	Landed a handicap over this trip at Gowran in comfortable fashion on reappearance and followed it up with a credible fourth-placed effort at Killarney; beaten 3½l into sixth back at Gowran last time out but didn't enjoy the smoothest passage; usually races in rear; big chance but needs things to fall his way.
4th (10) Atbay	4	Gavin Ryan	Mark Fahey	Lightly-raced maiden who improved for the step up to 7½f at Roscommon when finishing runner-up, beaten 2½l by Blue Peak; saw out the extra distance strongly that day and gets to race off the same mark here; definite chance.
(8) Skontonovski	6	Cian MacRedmond	Adrian McGuinness	Six time winner, including over this distance on four of those occasions who has bounced back to form on his last two starts; beaten 2¾l into fourth at Gowran last time out, ¾l ahead of Simply Sideways; was denied a clear run that day and looks to have strong claims off same mark.

Both Skontonovski and Simply Sideways arrive here in good form but SOYOUNIQUE might offer some each-way value. He will have to break alertly from his outside draw but is handicapped to strike on his preferred good ground. Miss Cunning is just 1lb lower than for winning a handicap at this meeting last season and she has claims if she can shrug off a poor effort at Killarney on her latest start. [Conor Fennelly]

On the back of a creditable effort in a competitive field at York, REACH (nap) gets the vote back down in class. She has low mileage and may be capable of better still in handicaps. Angels Landing, who should be suited by the return to 1m2f, is second choice ahead of Baikal and Flag Of Truth.[Steve Boow]

2nd (2) Nevendon	6	Sam Twiston-Davies	Alexandra Dunn	Having been bought out of John McConnell's yard for £1,600 he returned to form with a win in a first-time tongue-tie (retained today) in a novice selling hurdle at Stratford (2m, good) a fortnight ago; faces a tougher task now back in a handicap but he did it nicely last time and is respected.
4th (4) Glimpse Of Gold	12	Jay Tidball	Sarah Humphrey	A win in this race last season was the middle leg of a hat-trick and he's fully 14lb lower than when last successful; however, this 12yo has struggled to get competitive this year and a major turnaround is needed.
3rd (5) Sisterandbrother	5	Harry Cobden	Milton Harris	Flat winner who won a maiden at Huntingdon (2m, good) 12 days ago when wearing first-time tongue-tie (retained today) on second hurdle start; open to further improvement in this code; could go well on handicap debut.
1st (1) Too Friendly	5	Mr Alex Chadwick	James Owen	Ex-Dan Skelton 5yo who has been beaten 12 times since his last win in November 2021 but he's edged down the weights and was a good third at Southwell (2m, good) three weeks ago on his second run for this yard; cheekpieces return (no positive impact on the Flat in the past); could be thereabouts.
5th (3) Lipa K	5	Conor Ring	Evan Williams	Good-ground bumper winner who scored at Warwick (2m, soft) in March on his second handicap start and followed up at Ludlow (2m, good to soft); could have more left in the tank and holds strong claims in this hat-trick bid.

The unexposed 5yo LIPA K (nap) has won at Warwick and Ludlow the last twice and can complete the hat-trick. Nevendon readily won a seller at Stratford on his recent stable debut and could be best of the rest, although Too Friendly and Sisterandbrother also arrive on the back of positive performances.[Ben Hutton]

3rd (8) War Correspondent	4	Mr P J Cody	R P Cody	Fair maiden on the Flat and ran well at this track when third in a maiden last September; has won over jumps since and returned to the level with a promising fourth at Leopardstown after five months off; each-way chance, albeit he has plenty to find at the weights with Taipan.
2nd (6) Mon Coeur	7	Mr J L Gleeson	Joseph G Murphy	Performed well in a pair of maiden hurdles before finishing second on Flat debut at Sligo last month, beaten ¾l by Marvelosa; step up in trip should suit; this requires a big step forward however.
4th (11) Female Soldier	4	Mr A P Ryan	Thomas Mullins	Possesses some useful form from last season after causing a 66-1 surprise in a Leopardstown maiden; stand-out effort when fifth in premier handicap at Leopardstown in September off 92; last seen beaten 5¾l into fifth by Taipan at Killarney after six months off; 10lb better off with that rival now and looks the one to give him the most to do.
1st (1) Taipan	5	Mr B O'Neill	Mrs John Harrington	Landed Naas maiden on only start at two and ran credibly in some competitive handicaps last season, including a seventh-place finish in the Cesarewitch; won seven-runner conditions race comfortably at Killarney last month, with Female Soldier in behind; 10lb worse off with that rival now; slight drop in trip; looks to have been found another good opportunity and will prove difficult to beat.

This looks another good opportunity for TAIPAN after he landed a similar event at Killarney last month. The slight drop in trip should pose no issues and the fifth that day Female Soldier looks the most likely one to chase him home now with a 10lb swing in the weights to factor in. [Conor Fennelly]

(8) Snow Berry	5	Ray Dawson	Michael Appleby	Course winner who was runner-up at Yarmouth (5f, good to firm) last June and is now 4lb lower; lightly raced since and not written off, but she needs to perform better than at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on Wednesday.
1st (4) Grandfather Tom	8	George Downing	Robert Cowell	Won at Lingfield (5f, AW) last month and fair fourth at Southwell (5f, AW) last time, where he doesn't have a good record; twice ran well over C&D (good/good to firm) last year and every chance he'll be bang there.
(10) Enchanted Night	5	Royston Ffrench	Christine Dunnett	Has run well on both starts this spring, going close at Yarmouth (5f, soft) last time; also effective on fast ground; might not be far away but she's 0-27 and the majority of her promising performances have come at Yarmouth; hard to be confident that today will be the day she breaks her duck.
(9) Sam's Call	6	Joanna Mason	Michael & David Easterby	Won on turf in 2021 (5f, good to firm) and good third on AW last month (6f); however, it's a long time since he's run well on turf and was down the field at Hamilton (6f, good) a fortnight ago; something to prove.
(2) Trois Vallees	4	Callum Shepherd	Charlie Fellowes	Well treated on last year's best form and hasn't run badly on her first two runs for this stable (5f/6f), but she needs something extra here and her peak efforts have come over 6f/7f; wears a first-time visor.
3rd (5) High Security	5	Alex Jary	Nigel Tinkler	Inconsistent and can have issues in the stalls, which proved a problem when a well-beaten favourite at Beverley on Wednesday (reared at the start and blindfold was removed late); however, he's well handicapped on last year's two fast-ground wins and is capable of a bold show.
2nd (7) Latin Five	6	Graham Lee	Paul Midgley	He hasn't been at his best this year but his mark has dropped accordingly and he's shown some signs of spark; has won over C&D and it will be no surprise to see a good run for his in-form stable.
4th (1) Han Solo Berger	8	Daniel Muscutt	Robert Cowell	Won at Southwell (5f, AW) in April and he's been a good second on two of his three subsequent starts; has won on fast ground and this in-form contender holds solid claims.

The in-form Han Solo Berger is a tempting option but preference is for GRANDFATHER TOM, a C&D winner who scored in good style at Lingfield last month and didn't run badly at Southwell last time, where he doesn't have a great record. High Security had an excuse when favourite at Beverley on Wednesday and could also have a say.[Ben Hutton]

(8) Jaika Nesloise	4	J Ch Piton	G Lefebvre	Has regressed since winning at Cabourg in December 2022. Poor form of late and others are preferred
(9) J'Adore Blue	4	Laurent Verva	L Verva	Won over this course and distance in March but has been disappointing in two starts since then. Place chance

JURELLA (11) is better than the last-start disqualification and can bounce back and win a race like this. JUGEMENT D'AVE (10) is the obvious danger with good form of late and a nice winner last time out. JOKE DE CHENU (4) did well enough in 2022 but has been disappointing of late but deserves some respect. JASMINE DE BOISNEY (6) has the ability off an upset if in the mood.

IMNOTONETOCOMPLAIN returned to form when runner-up over C&D in May and a similar level of performance could suffice. Better Call Mama can't be ruled out if coming on for her recent return, with Imagine Victory also of interest.

1st (7) Leddy	4	Manuel Franco	Michael Maker	He has won three times at 6f. Finished 14l behind Catchyasoon when sixth of 7 at 5-1 on his latest outing at Belmont Park over 6f last month. He is wearing blinkers for the first time. Work to do.
4th (5) Printrack	4	Jason Gherson Huayas	Gregory Diprima	He has won four times from 6f to 7f. A winner at 5-1 at Belmont Park over 6f on his latest outing last month, beating The Sicarii by a neck. Shortlist material.
3rd (6) Jalen Journey	8	Kendrick Carmouche	Rob Atras	Has won eight races from 6f to 1m. Finished behind Trash Talker when fourth of 9 at 3-1 on his latest outing at Aqueduct over 6f in April. Place claims at best.
2nd (4) Three Two Zone	5	Dylan Davis	Raymond Handal	He has won four times from 6f to 7f. Finished 14l behind Synthesis when last of 5 at 13-2 on his latest outing at Belmont Park over 7f last month. Considerably eased in class.
(1) Winning Drive	7	Jose Lezcano	Mertkan Kantarmaci	Winner of seven races at 6f. Finished 9l behind No More Talk when last of 6 at 9-1 on his latest outing at Belmont Park over 6f last month. Probably best watched.
(2) Motion To Strike	5	Joel Rosario	Natalia Lynch	He has won three times at 6f. Finished 5l behind Printrack when fourth of 6 at 11-4jt-fav on his latest outing at Belmont Park over 6f last month. Needs to step forward.

THREE TWO ZONE struggled in deeper waters over 7f at this track on his most recent run but is expected to bounce back here. He gets a tentative vote at the main expense of Printrack and O'trouble.

It's difficult to make a case for most of these, so only a tentative vote can go to BRAD'S BET, who faces his easiest assignment to date down in grade. Bointheback and Secret Temptation complete the shortlist.

JET BESP (9) is fit and in good form and should give punters a decent run for their money in the lucky last race. JORECAR DE FORGAN (7) has a course and distance win behind him and should contest the finish. JALIA DU LUPIN (5) is better in Mounted races so the last run is best ignored and she is not out of it.

ULTIMATE IRONY wasn't quite at his best when upped in grade on his latest outing and the return to a more realistic level may see the five-year-old back in the winner's circle. Others to note are Bird's Eye View and Dazzling Truths.

(9) Gone Nuts	4	Edwin Gonzalez	Rohan Crichton	Successful twice at 5f. Beaten by Banker's Hours when second of 7 at 12-5 on his latest outing at Gulfstream over 5f (good) last month. Hit form at the right time and heads the shortlist in this company.
(11) Overtaxed	4	Miguel Vasquez	Fausto Gutierrez	Successful at 5f and 6f. Beaten 10l behind Xy Speed at 28-1 when seventh of 8 on his latest outing at Gulfstream over 5f (good) in April. Lost his way a tad and might be best just watched.

GONE NUTS has run with a good level of consistency since being gelded and career win number three could well be on the horizon today. Toretto is another taken seriously and shades second choice over Straight Shot.

(4) Big Update	3	Jose Valdivia Jr	Paul Aguirre	Full sister to High Gunner, won at 5f. Beaten 18l behind Long Mayshe Reign at 30-1 when eighth of 10 on her racecourse debut at Santa Anita over 6f (good) in April. She's difficult to recommend on that evidence.
(7) Boginskaya	3	Eduard Fernandez Rojas	Luis Mendez	Placed once in two starts. Beaten 13l behind Timely Luck at 25-1 when eighth of 10 on her latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) last month. Expected to mount a serious challenge.

BOGINSKAYA perhaps failed to see out a mile last time, but a return to the form of her debut second, which came over C&D, would entitle Luiz Mendez's filly to leading claims. Twin Soul is feared most, while market support for newcomer Mango Moon would bring her into the reckoning.

Dark Mystery brings the best form to the table, when a creditable fifth last time over 6f, but MAJOR TOM just shades the vote. The three-year-old showed enough in workouts last month to suggest he has enough ability to play a leading role, while the market can guide as to the chances of Gulara.

Taming The Tigress struggled at stakes level last month, but she should be far more potent down in class. Too Much Heaven arrives in search of her hat-trick and she is another to warrant serious consideration, though OVER ATTRACTED, a ready winner in this grade on her latest outing, edges the vote.

(8) Hops Petunia	4	Jose Vega	Carlos Inirio	A winner at 6f on the all-weather. Well beaten at 40-1 behind Fracing Nasty when fourth of five on her latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 6f last month. Would need a lot to go her way.
(10) Iron Bertie	4	Kevin Gonzalez	Robert Fiesman	A winner at 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Third of seven behind Reciprocal beaten 8l at 22-1 on her latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 6f last month. Another with claims.
(11) Pacific Grove	4	Luis Batista	Alejandro Gonzalez	A winner at 1m on the all-weather. Finished 6l behind Miss Goodbar when fifth of eight at 25-1 on her latest outing at Horseshoe Indianapolis over 7f (good) last month. Reserve.
(12) Exactly Wendy	4	Charle Oliveros	Eric Reed	A winner at 1m on good ground. Finished 19l behind Stateforest when sixth of seven at 18-1 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m in February. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Manuel Badilla. Reserve.

VINTAGE has been knocking on the door of late and this looks like a good opportunity to regain the winning thread. She can get the better of Mady Rose and Pink Channel.

(1) Cash Equity	5	Juan Hernandez	Philip D Amato	He has won four times from 1m 1f to 1m 2f on good and good to soft ground. Well beaten at 12-5fav behind Time To Party when last of 8 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m (good) in April. Has the ability to play a leading role.
(2) Fayathaan	5	Jose Valdivia Jr	Paula Capestro	He has won four times from 6f to 7f on soft ground and on the all-weather. Beaten 15l behind Dean Martini at 30-1 when last of 9 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m 1f (good) last month. Yet to shine since his arrival from France, and he's perhaps best watched for now.
(3) Mclaren Vale	4	Ramon Vazquez	John Sadler	Successful at 6f and 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. Third of 5 behind Midnight Mammoth beaten 6l at 14-5 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m in March. On the premises.
(4) Crosby Beach	4	Kent Desormeaux	Michael McCarthy	Successful at 1m and 1m 1f on good ground and on the all-weather. Finished 4 1/2l behind Dean Martini when fifth of 9 at 18-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m 1f (good) last month. Not without a chance.
(5) Samburu	4	Tiago Pereira	Michael McCarthy	He has won three times at 7f on ground varying from good to firm to good to soft. Beaten 4 1/2l behind Fast Buck at 17-2 when eighth of 9 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. Others hold more pressing claims.
(6) Taishan	6	Mike Smith	George Papaprodromou	He has won three times at 1m on the all-weather. Finished 4 1/2l behind Dean Martini when sixth of 9 at 35-1 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m 1f (good) last month. Faces an uphill battle.
(7) Twist	6	Antonio Fresu	John Sadler	Winner of five races from 1m to 1m 1f on good to soft and heavy ground and on the all-weather. A winner at Chantilly over 1m in February, beating Ciccio Boy by 2l. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with C Laffon-Parias in France. The market can guide on his US debut.
(8) Respect The Code	4	Umberto Rispoli	George Papaprodromou	Successful at 5f and 6f on good ground and on the all-weather. Beaten 7l behind Fast Buck at 17-5 when last of 9 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 6f (good) last month. It would be dangerous to write him off.
(9) Tidal Forces	5	Edwin Maldonado	Philip D Amato	Successful at 1m and 1m 1f on good ground and on the all-weather. Beaten 4 1/2l behind Dean Martini at 13-1 when seventh of 9 on his latest outing at Santa Anita over 1m 1f (good) last month. It's been a while since his last win and he's likely to come up short once more.

CASH EQUITY was a winner at this level two starts ago and, if able to forgive the below-par effort that followed, he appeals as the one to beat. That said, Mclaren Vale can give him plenty to think about, while French recruit Twist is worth monitoring in the betting ahead of his Stateside debut.

(1) In The Vault	5	Isaias Enriquez	Frank Lucarelli	She has won three times from 5f to 6f. Third of 11 behind Emily Smiles beaten 4 1/2l at 9-2 on her latest outing at Turf Paradise over 5f last month. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Shane Peacock. Should be in the mix.
(2) Feather Inthe Wind	4	Alex Cruz	Jose Navarro	She has won three times at 5f. A winner at 12-5 at Emerald Downs over 5f on her latest outing last month, beating Golden Halo by 1 1/4l. This is harder.
(3) Fire Escape	4	Alexis Valdes	Jorge Rosales	She has won three times from 5f to 6f. Beaten 14l behind Larimar at 11-2 when last of 8 on her latest outing at Turf Paradise over 6f in January. Opposed.
(4) Reign Of Fire	5	Alex Anaya	Joe Toye	Winner of seven races from 4f to 6f. Beaten 3 1/2l by Alberta Sun when second of 6 at 6-1 on her latest outing at Turf Paradise over 6f in April. Worthy of consideration.
(5) Frisco Frills	5	Kevin Radke	Cliff Balcom	She has won four times from 4f to 6f. Beaten 10l behind Ms Parkside at 17-4 when last of 8 on her latest outing at Emerald Downs over 6f last month. Has some good form to her name.
(6) Hollywood Mistress	5	Luis Negron	Candice Cryderman	She has won four times from 5f to 1m. Finished 4 1/2l behind Classic Leah when sixth of 7 at 11-2 on her latest outing at Emerald Downs over 5f last month. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Jaymie Cruz. Can be taken on.
(7) Your Royal Coil	7	Carlos Montalvo	Hilario Perez	She has won four times from 4f to 6f. Beaten 1/2l by Classic Leah when second of 7 at 10-1 on her latest outing at Emerald Downs over 5f last month. Another with claims.

Your Royal Coil and In The Vault both merit plenty of respect, but the vote goes to REIGN OF FIRE after her second in a stakes event last time.

(1) Risengold	3	Guillermo Rodriguez	Susan Cooney	Half-brother to Speed Gracer, won twice between 5f and 1m 1f. May need the experience.
(2) B G Lee	4	Kevin Gonzalez	Jeff Zook	Placed once in eight starts. Beaten 14l behind Nordic Light at 5-2 when last of nine on his latest outing at Turfway Park over 1m in January. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Michael Maker. One of the likelier winners.
(3) Shannonrun	4	German Terraza	Erick Torres	Placed once in 13 starts. Finished 20l behind Cartographer when last of six at 9-1 on his latest outing at Belterra Park over 6f last month. A player based on the pick of his form.
(4) Milliondolarmonkey	4	Charle Oliveros	Eric Reed	Placed once in six starts. Beaten 20l behind Sakonna at 17-2 when seventh of 11 on her latest outing at Turfway Park over 1m in February. The one to be with.
(5) Baytown Beaver	3	Noel Vigil	Crystal Richison	Placed once in 11 starts. Beaten 6l by Papa Charles when second of six at 13-10fav on his latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 6f (good) last month, his only placing from 11 starts. Improvement required.
(6) Hickory Bill	4	Edgar Paucar	Karl Meeks	Yet to place in five starts. Finished 11l behind Daddy Z when fourth of five at 30-1 on his latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 6f last month. Easily overlooked.
(7) Unkempt	4	Eddie Jurado	William McDonald	Yet to place in three starts. Well beaten at 35-1 behind Cryptic Code when last of seven on his latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 1m last month. Likely to struggle.
(8) Screaming Jeremy	3	Andrew Ramgeet	Jami Poole	Yet to place in six starts. Finished 10l behind Don't Cross Jack when sixth of seven at 19-2 on his latest outing at Mountaineer Park over 5f last month. A minor role awaits.
(9) Finlandias Neat	5	Luis Batista	Gregory Eidschun	Unplaced in all four starts. Finished 13l behind Millennium Condo when sixth of 10 at 66-1 on his latest outing at Gulfstream over 1m last month. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Karyn Philipp. Noted.
(10) Foggy Albion	7	Jose Vega	Lois Meals	Placed in three of 23 starts. Finished 14l behind Malibu Prince when fifth of six at 33-10 on his latest outing at Fair Meadows over 1m in June '21. Having his first run for a new stable today, previously with Devin Cook. Do not dismiss.

The Eric R Reed stable can do little wrong at present and MILLIONDOLARMONKEY can get off the mark at the seventh time of asking. That may be at the main expense of B G Lee and Shannonrun.

(1) Hersabiggirl	3	Evin Roman	Manuel Badilla	A winner at 17-4 at Turf Paradise over 7f (good) on her latest outing in April, beating Geejaytee by 2 3/4l. Having her first run for a new stable today, previously with Mike Chambers. A fascinating contender making her first start at this track.
(2) Turiaf	3	Santos Rivera	Isidro Tamayo	Successful at 5f and 1m on good ground and on the all-weather. A winner at 17-5 at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) on her latest outing last month, beating My Yammy Lady by 1/2l. A similar bid should see her right in the mix once more.
(3) My Yammy Lady	3	Assael Espinoza	Steve Sherman	Successful at 5f and 1m on the all-weather. Beaten 1/2l by Turiaf when second of 7 at 5-2fav on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) last month. Consistent enough to play a strong hand.
(4) Bourbon Glaze	3	William III Antongeorgi	Blaine Wright	Successful twice at 1m on the all-weather. Finished 1 1/4l behind Turiaf when fourth of 7 at 13-5 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) last month. Should go well.
(5) Cheekiest	3	Armando Ayuso	Steve Sherman	A winner at 2-1 at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) on her latest outing last month, beating Jersey Sunset by 1/2l. Enters calculations.
(6) Smart Kitten	3	Brayan Pena	Doug O'Neill	A winner at 1m on the all-weather. Third of 7 behind Turiaf beaten 3/4l at 10-1 on her latest outing at Golden Gate Fields over 1m (good) last month. The main principals have more pressing claims.

TURIAF had the majority of this field behind last time when scoring by half a length, and she looks likely to repeat that feat to make it a double. My Yammy Lady (second) and Bourbon Glaze (fourth) can follow her home once more.
