Lose
-100
Only 6 runners, but half of them look to have a bit to do. Take A Breath beat Blast The Dream at Sandown last time, but the winner got first run on the Varian runner then, who was waited with in last place. Blast The Dream went to Sandown after a 100-day break and is likely to be better for the run. The yard is an impressive 11-24 (46%) here in the past 5 seasons, and she is their only runner here today. At around 5/1, she looks the value bet here.

200
Only 5 runners with 2 of them having plenty to find. Karmology is likely to make the running, but she has yet to prove herself at this trip on a stiff track, so I can’t help feeling she will be vulnerable through the final furlong today. Teumessias Fox is far better on the AW and is only 1-18 on turf. Candleford was disappointing for me at Royal Ascot as he usually goes well fresh. That said, he was still sitting about 6th with 2f to go, and he was eased right off from over 1f out, so would have finished rather closer if he had been pushed out. He can sit in behind likely leader Karmology, and if he comes forward for that run, he is going to be sitting in a good place to pounce. The yard have a good record of 6-22 (5 x 2nds), and he looks the value bet here at around 2/1.

A lot will depend on the pace of this race as Ombudsman is unlikely to get the race run to suit as he did at Ascot. He is sure to run well but I would prefer to see him prove himself again with the pace unlikely to suit. Delacroix was never going to be suited by the way the Derby was run and that run can be forgiven. He can race with the pace or even lead and he is likely to get a better pace to suit his run style. Ryan will make sure that he gets a better run than he got in the Derby and at around 4/1, he looks overpriced and he rates the Nap of the day.

Miss Tonnerre raced a little keenly on re-appearance but she was probably a bit fresh on her first run for 205 days. She was bumped just over 2f out and she was not pushed once her chance had gone over 1f out. She is sure to improve for the run and while bred for at least 10f, she may be suited by this drop back to a stiff 8f. On both adjusted RPRs and speed figures, she looks overpriced at around 11/1 and she looks to have a solid each way chance.

On adjusted RPRs, this looked to rest between the 2 last time out winners but there has been strong support for what was 3rd favourite Inn The Air which, personally, I don’t get. This leaves the other 2 main contenders at rather better odds. The one for me is the Greatrex trained Shillanavogy who just sets the standard on RPRs. He won last time out after a short 2 month break and unlike his main rival in the market, he is only a 7yo and is on a progressive upward curve. He travelled strongly that day and James Bowen, keeps the ride. He is 6lb higher but in his current form, he looks overpriced at around 5/4 especially as he was odds on last night. He looks the one to be on and rates the Nap of the day.

The Nicholls-trained Keel Strand is likely to go off favorite here but drops back down in trip to the winning trip of 2 runs back. While he won that, he is facing a horse who looks likely to improve further for his step up in trip. In addition, Cobden is replaced by the yard conditional, and he may need all the assistance he can get from the saddle. In what is in effect a 3-runner race, the Gardner-trained Stinginhisstep looks the value bet at around 9/4.

Only 4 runners in this nursery, but the ready preference is for the Michael Bell-trained Museum Piece. With Ryan Moore taking the mount, he is likely to race with the pace, which shouldn’t be too difficult in a 4-runner field. 6f looked to stretch her last time, and she will be better suited to this 5f trip. Ryan has a decent strike rate of 7-20 in the past 5 seasons. At around 7/4, he looks the one to be on and rates the Nap of the day.

@34.00

-50
Alzahir is likely to go off a short-priced favourite for this after scoring at Chester last time out. However, that was only 4 days ago, and that was his 4th run in 4 weeks. Whether he can maintain the run of form may leave him vulnerable, and at such short odds, I would rather take him on. The one to take the eye is the ex-Michael O’Callaghan trained Mehmar, who is now with Jamie Osborne. He won 2 off the belt last summer for his previous yard, making all both times. He missed the break on stable debut and re-appearance at Windsor 37 days ago and raced in rear throughout. In addition, he had no headgear at Windsor, and blinkers return today. He has dropped 2lb for that run and is now 2lb below his last winning mark in Ireland. With only 4 runners here, if he can jump out of the gates, he could get into the lead and revert to front-running tactics. At around 33/1, he looks way overpriced and is worth a sporting each-way bet to finish in the first 2.

Flying Comet was backed into odds-on for his debut at Nottingham 3 weeks ago but missed the break. While he did quickly make up the lost ground, he looked a bit green and couldn’t make any headway through the final furlong. He clearly had shown something and is sure to be better for the experience. His yard is an impressive 4-6 at this track, and he does set the standard on adjusted RPRs. So at around 5/4, he looks the one to be on.

Topteam comes here on a hat-trick and is sure to run his race. However, he is likely to make his own running, but he has yet to prove he stays the trip and may set it up for a closer. Rogue Impact makes his handicap debut after running in the Lingfield Derby Trial and then the Derby itself, where he was ridden cold and, along with most others in the race, could never land a blow from the back. He has won at this trip and will find this an awful lot easier than his last two outings. At around 9/2 in a 4-runner race, he looks way overpriced and looks the value bet and rates the Nap of the day.

Mr Hampstead went into my notebook after showing the benefit of stepping up to 2m when scoring at Goodwood in early May by 5.5l. Then followed up later in the month over the same CD off 7lb higher, going down by just a neck up to a Class 3. He was far from disgraced stepping up further in trip to 2.5m at Royal Ascot 2 weeks ago, making headway turning into the home straight before weakening over 1f out. Off the same mark, he drops back to 2m and ran well on the AW on debut as a 2yo. In addition, he wears a tongue tie for the first time and the yard is 1-2 with a first time tongue tie in the past couple of years. At around 13/2, he looks a solid each way bet.

Doc McCoy sets the standard on adjusted RPRs on top of which he has the added bonus of his rider taking off a further 7lb and she won on him 2 runs back so knows the horse. He likes to force the pace and should get an uncontested lead again here. He is 12lb higher than for his last win but his riders claim offsets a lot of that. With conditions to suit, he should take a deal of beating here.

@3.00

This looks to rest between the two at the head of the market with preference for the Alan King-trained Finest View. She has been nicely progressive in 4 runs over fences and is unbeaten in 2 runs this season. She is likely to race up with the pace and, suited by the expected good ground, she looks up to landing her hat-trick. The yard is in good form with 3-14 in the past 14 days and 13-42 at the track in the past 5 seasons, including 1-1 this season and 6-11 last season. Schmilsson may have been a little lucky to score last time as he was left clear at the last fence and he is not bred for jumping. He doesn’t look a natural for fences and may be outjumped by his rival, who looks the one to be on here and rates the Nap of the day.

Uncle Dick is a standing dish here and is usually ridden by one of the yard’s apprentices. However, today he is ridden by stable jockey Charlie Bishop. He is well suited by the CD, and the better ground compared to the easier surface he has encountered on his last two runs will also suit. The two last time out turf winners are both stepping up from a Class 6 to a Class 5 here and will find this a lot trickier. He has conditions to suit, and with a pace for him to aim at, he has everything in his favor, and at around 10/3, he looks the value bet.

Irish Fighter showed promise on debut on AW at Wolverhampton, keeping on in the final half furlong to finish a close 2nd. He was then outclassed in the Group 2 Norfolk at Royal Ascot, staying on nicely down the outside, which was not the best place to be on the day. He was beaten less than 6l behind the highly regarded Charles Darwin. While he has given the impression that he is ready for 6f, he will find this a lot easier and should prove too good for this field provided it doesn’t come too quick and looks the one to be on.

Mariner looked uneasy on the track when scoring at Ripon 3 runs back and back there again last time on softer ground, looked to find conditions against him. He gets the services of top amateur Eireann Cagney today who is 1-1 for the yard in the past 5 seasons. He is 4-16 (5 x 2nds) this season in Britain so the hint should be noted. He has dropped 1lb for the latest run and with conditions more likely to suit, he looks overpriced at around 11/2. With the race likely to be run to suit, he looks a solid each way bet and rates a sporting each way Nap of the day.

Lambourn has had a bit of a marmite response to his Derby victory but for me, he was clearly the best horse on the day and I see no reason why he cannot confirm the placings with those re-opposing. Ryan takes over and is likely to be able to dictate the pace or at least race with the pace and he is likely to have the race run to suit. He should take a deal of beating again.

However, Laravie stays very well, and while the drop in trip may not be ideal, with the champion jockey Sean Bowen on board, and with the visor retained, she is fancied to land her hat-trick. At the slightly bigger odds, the Owen-trained mare is the one to be on and rates the Nap of the day.

Perfect Part was unlucky in a similar Class 3 handicap at York 32 runs back when she got no run through the final furlong before finishing 4th. She has since kept on to finish 4th in a Listed event at Musselburgh and now drops back to a Class 3 handicap again. Shay Farmer, who rode her at York, takes off a valuable 7lb. He will need a bit of luck in running coming from the back of the field, but Shay has ridden her before. So if he can hold her up and get the rub of the green, she looks overpriced at around 13/2 and rates a sporting each way bet.

A fascinating clash of the generations which looks to mainly lie between the two at the top of the market with preference for the 3yo filly Whirl. She is likely to try to make the running or at least race with the pace and is likely to find the drop to 10f more suitable than Kalpana who would definitely prefer a longer trip. In receipt of 12lb from the older filly, Whirl is fancied to land her first Group 1.

I’m not a big fan of AW racing at Gosforth Park, but one to take the eye today is the Saffie Osborne mount, Diligent Harry. He has won twice over CD, and after being tried in blinkers last time, he reverts to cheekpieces today, and Saffie takes the mount on him this time. Despite only finishing 5th last time over CD, he recorded a really good speed figure, and he comes out top of speed figs today. Drawn on the usually favoured stands side, he looks overpriced at around 20/1 and rates a sporting each-way Nap of the day.

Though once she got out, she wasn’t making much progress in the final half furlong, so the drop back to 6f should suit today. She won over CD last May, so clearly goes well at the track. She is suited by fast ground, and with the drop, she is likely to be ridden nearer the pace, and Hector Crouch rides her for the first time. At around 4/1, she rates the value bet.

A chance is taken here with the Ollie Sangster-trained Glamis Road. She is only 4lb behind the top-rated on adjusted RPR, and that was recorded on re-appearance 3 runs back. She returned at Epsom off a 69-day break 3 weeks back and unusually was ridden out the back. In a race that little got into it from the back, she was never nearer, beaten just over 8l. She showed her best on testing ground last season, so the good-soft was too quick at Epsom. The yard doesn’t often head North, but they have good strike rates at most tracks up country that they have visited, and this is their first runner here. If she can race nearer the pace as she prefers, then at around 40/1, she is way overpriced and is worth a small each-way bet and rates a sporting each-way Nap of the day.

Nifty sets the standard on adjusted RPRs but carries a penalty for a win 3 weeks ago. That was on the AW and she hung right through the final furlong. Her debut was over CD on quick ground so she should be fine but the penalty is a slight worry. John Barleycorn made his debut at Newbury behind last week’s Royal Ascot winner Humidity and the form has been well franked since then. He was not given a hard time and on jockey bookings he looks the stable selected of 2 here. He holds entries in a number of Sales races and he has been supported this morning. At around 11/2, he looks the value bet.

However, his winning rider that day retains the ride and he claims a valuable 5lb off his back. He sets the standard on adjusted RPRs and the yard is in good form with a 44% strike rate this season, including 7-14 here.

She does set the standard on adjusted RPRs, but she is vulnerable to an improver. That could well be the Harry Eustace-trained Correspondence, who comes here after just one run in a Class 5 Novice at Yarmouth. She stumbled over the path in the first furlong but kept on nicely through the final furlong under hands and heels riding. For all she was well beaten, the winner did finish 2nd in the Jersey at Royal Ascot last week, and the Eustace yard comes here on a high after 2 Group 1 winners last week. They have a very good strike rate here with 8-29 (28%) in the past 5 seasons, including 5-10 with their 3yos here. At around 9/4, she looks the value bet to turn over the limited favorite.

The one for me ius the Joseph O’Brien trained Al Riffa who should benefit form the swapping of cheekpieces for blinkers. He will be suited by the step back up in trip to 12f and he is fine on fast ground. Along with the favourite, they are the only two with consistent genuine Group 1 form so at around 11/2, he looks the value bet.

Treanmor is likely to go off favourite after an impressive victory at Newmarket. However, the form has not worked out particular well and it is worrying that the yard have not had a winner this week. He is sure to go well but at the price, I would rather take him on. The O’Brien team have been in top form this week, especially their 2yos and Moments Of Joy can carry on the excellent record of the yard in this race having won 5 of the last 9, including with 2 fillies. She won the same maiden at Leopardstown that last year’s winner of this, Bedtime Story, took in and she showed a good attitude when she was tackled in the final furlong and pulled away again close home. At around 3/1, she looks the one to be on and rates the Nap of the day.

2 clear at the head of the market but for all that Amiloc is now unbeaten in 4, I could not h ave him after seeing the way he ran so lazily at Goodwood las time. The Gosden yard are in excellent form this week and the one to take the eye is Nightwalker. He has been slowly away in both of his last 2 and he now sports blinkers for the first time. His last run was in the Derby and not surprisingly, after missing the break, he could never get into the race but a lot of horse were in the same boat. Previously, he kept one well in the Dante so the trip looks likely to suit. With Colin Keane taking the mount While a low draw can be a negative, with only 9 runners he should be fine. At around 12/1, he looks a sporting each way chance.

French trained Zarigana is likely to go off favourite after being awarded the French 1,000 Guineas. Whether that was justified is debatable and it remains to be seen if she can show her form on this faster ground. For me, she has to be opposed. January was never put in the race on re-appearance in the Irish 1,000 Guineas and she is sure to improve for the run as most of the yard’s top 3yo’s have done this season. Exactly finished 4th to the French winner at Chantilly but Ryan deserts her for January and with the stable form this week, she looks way overpriced at around 6/1 and rates the Nap of the day.

It is difficult to get away from the Appleby trained Shadow Of Light to regain winning ways after a career best effort to be 4th in the 2,000 Guineas. He made his effort around the same time as the winner from the far side of the field and hit the front over1f out before he looked to fail to stay the trip. He should be suited by the drop back in trip and while he has not won on officially f ast ground, the going was changed to good to firm immediately after he was 2nd in the Gimcrack at York last August. It is a slight worry that his powerful yard have yet to score at the meeting this week but this lad is probably the best chance they have this week. He is a little short at around 7/4, but if he improves for the drop back in trip, from a good draw in stall 19, he could be an impressive winner.

Judged on results this week and especially yesterday, it looks to pay to be drawn towards the stands side. She made all when scoring at Haydock and raced prominently on debut at the track while that was over 5f she showed she stays this trip at Haydock. She is nicely drawn in 13 and Oisin Murphy retains the ride and he has an excellent strike rate of 10-21 (48%0 this season and he is riding at the top of his game. Likely favourite Signora ia sure to run well for the all conquering O’Brien yard but she was ridden from behind on debut and she could find the others have gone if repeating that tactic here. Ipanema Queen made virtually all at the Curragh on debut in a similar big field and is very well drawn in stall 17 and could prove the biggest danger. At around 9/2, Fitzella looks the value bet.

A number of trends to note here and the one that fits the bill nicely is the Bin Suroor trained Tornado Alert. He comes here from finishing 6th in the Derby and there have been 3-9 winners who ran at Epsom last time out in the past 15 years. Prior to that, he finished 4th in the 2000 Guineas so he has clear Group 1 form. He looked to fail to truly stay the trip in the Derby so this drop back to 10f should suit. James McDonald takers the mount and at around 13/2, he looks way overpriced and looks a solid each way bet.

An intriguing renewal with Kyprios now retired. Trawlerman is proven at the trip and is sure to give a good account. He is likely to race with the pace and with proven stamina, he will go close. Illinois looks to take over as the champion stayer and is sure to give a good account though he does have stamina to prove. The one for me is the French trained Candelari who has any amount of improvement having made his debut just last December. He will love the quick ground and this son of Frankel is expected to improve further for the longer trip. Barzalona Is back on board today and his final furlong has so far, always been his best suggesting that h e will be fine at the trip. The yard are in good form and he is reportedly looking and working well at home. At around 10/3, he looks the one to be on and rates the Nap of the day.

A tricky renewal with the 2 at the top of the market not having run as 2yo’s. No filly that failed to run as a 2yo has won this since 2013 so that is off putting, especially as only 2 favourites have won this in the past 10 years. The Gosden’s and Ballydoyle have landed 8 oof the last 10 runnings so I will focus on that stat. Life Is Beautiful sets the standard on adjusted RPRs and she is expected to improve further for the step up to 12f. She races with the pace so she should be able to keep out of any trouble in behind. She is well suited by a sound surface so with question marks about a number of her rivals, she looks the value bet at around 8/1. I’m not convinced that Garden Of Eden will stay on breeding so the danger could be the Johnson trained Caspi Star who stayed on well behind subsequent Oaks winner Minnie Hauk and may be worth an each way saver at around 12/1.

A wide open handicap with plenty in with chances tho a number with something to prove over this trip. In addition, low draws can be tricky to overcome unless you are up with the pace from the outset so it often pays to look at the outside stalls. One that looks to be going the right way and likely to step up further for the step up in trip is the Joseph O’Brien runner Omni Man. He has been nicely progressive in 4 runs to date and makes his handicap debut here from what looks a winnable mark. He stayed on strongly over 10.5f last time and judged on breeding, he should enjoy the longer trip. At around 16/1, he looks a solid each way bet.

Charles Darwin sets a clear standard on adjusted RPRs and has been all the rage in the market. However, a worrying stat is that horses drawn 11+ have a really poor record, especially in the past 10 years. Having watched the past 5 runnings, the winners have all come from the group drawn low so with 16 runners and Charles Darwin drawn 15, I will take him on at a shade of odds on. The one for me is the French trained Afjan who made a winning debut at Chantilly 18 days ago. He is joint 2nd top rated on adjusted RPRs but noticeable is that Timeform give him a ‘P’ suggesting plenty of improvement to come. Drawn nicely in stall 5, he has been well supported this morning and looks a solid each way bet at around 10/1.
