A tough fifth. Very little value around until the "lucky last." Very surprised to see 12/1 for the Kevin Ryan runner Dickensian. Six starts as a 2-year-old: winning once, placed five times (only poor run came in a 2-year-old race here, going off joint favourite). Beaten by 115-rated Wise Approach after leading near the side rail, under a length and a half. Returned a month ago at York, staying on nicely to win a Listed contest. Been competing at the highest level with Listed or Group 2/3 and is, I feel, a Group horse effectively in a handicap. Top weight will make things hard, but Sean (SG) knows him very well. Just felt those fond of Pinatubo: he is a Group horse in a handicap. To be honest, he is double the odds I envisaged. Fair draw, track the pace; the ground will suit. Ran here twice before: sixth on his second career start and runner-up on his fourth career start in last year's Windsor Castle. I fully expect him to be one of the best-backed horses of the day. Six places on offer at double my forecast odds ??" there's a lot to like.

Not the strongest of renewals, and a case can be made for the majority. But at a price, although 0-5 since debut success, Italy has been mixing it in top-class company. Although RM opts for the stable first string, he has got it wrong before. Seasonal return when fourth in the Ballysax was respectable. He has been kept fresh for this, since one imagines this may have been the seasonal aim in the early part of the season after missing several engagements. 12/1 is double the price I envisaged.

WEECHARD looks tailor-made for this handicap. Improved with each start at two, finishing third in a Group 3 on ground that would not have suited. Perfectly respectable seasonal return at Goodwood when not well drawn, staying on strongly. That run 26 days ago should bring him forward for this, with the step up in trip certain to suit.12/1,fair value i envisaged around 9/1 with six places on offer

Golden and O'Brien entries are respected, but Trawlerman's prep has not been ideal, with well-documented eye issues and no prep run. Rahiebb has a neck to find on the Ledger run, was hugely impressive, and the win in the Yorkshire Cup was a statement. The question is: will he stay? Roger Varian is confident he will. Quite simply, on form shown, if he does, there is no way he should be anywhere near 8/1.

Think this is a quick turnaround for Legacy Link from The Oaks. Could be her undoing, though she's the class act. Earth Shot makes each-way appeal at the prices with four places on offer. Built on her debut: second, running out easy five lengths at Newmarket on seasonal return. Was just touched off in a Listed contest at Goodwood behind Inis Mór. Ran a fine third in the French Oaks. At a huge price if getting an uncontested lead, Brilliant Star isn't a forlorn hope.

Appleby form is a concern, but INTO THE LIGHT won on debut and has since been runner-up twice. The latter was franked by the winner taking the London Gold Cup. It shapes as though this trip will suit based on breeding and what he's shown so far. 6/1, 5 places on offer.

This is a wide-open affair. Those at the top end make little appeal at the odds. But at 18/1, TIME FOR THE MOON is interesting. It was backed as though defeat was out of the question on debut but finished 3/4. It made no mistake, winning by 7 lengths despite running green and being unbalanced in the closing stages. This straight 7 furlongs on this ground should suit. Four places at double-figure odds look a value play. One of a handful has more than one run and is experienced. The stable know what it takes to win this ??" Charlie's dad won it twice.

Controlla holds an entry in The Albany on Friday. Despite being green and ducking left at the start, she showed a great deal of promise on debut, beaten a neck by Victorious at Naas when an inexperienced 25/1 shot, with six lengths back to the third. The winner had an experience edge also. With normal progress, that run should bring her on. I cannot see her out of the places.

This is tricky, but Stateira is interesting. Could be treated leniently and offered the current mark. She's won twice and was a luckless third when denied room at a crucial stage at the Curragh back in May. Bearing in mind that was only her second career start on turf (in 10 starts), she's open to improvement, I feel. Andrew Balding's yard are flying along. At 13/2 with six places on offer, it's fair.

Indalo represents last year's winning stable, but a double-the-odds Erzindjan is interesting. This straight course, guaranteed blistering pace, will suit this come-from-behind runner. Weighted reverse form with a few of these on Newmarket runner. Not one of the big-named trainers feels his chances have been underestimated at 14/1, especially if drawn mid, choosing to follow where the pace is.

Quite why OMBUDSMAN is odds-against is a surprise. It comes here as the defending champion and has been contesting at the top table for the last three seasons. Some are crabbing that he won only by a neck in the Brigadier Gerrard, but Gethin is a decent yardstick; he was giving him 7 pounds. The Gosdens would have left something to work with, with this being his seasonal aim. Ability to handle the ground and this track are positives. I envisaged around 4/5 and definitely getting value at the current odds some three days in advance.

One of smallest fields of the afternoon but high class for all of that. At a price SEA THE FIRE has trained on from 4 to 5 and shes not without an each way chance in this higher grade judged on her first two starts at winning easily. At 18/1 much bigger than 12/1 I envisaged see her being placed if not winning should Ombudsman under perform

Blue Bolt missed her two-year-old campaign but made up for that in her first season at three. She ran six times, winning three and finishing runner-up twice. The only time out of the frame was on debut. She's progressing at a rapid rate of knots. She returned this term at Goodwood, beating Kon Tiki on 2nd May. That should put her spot on for this. Wareeth is an each-way play if declared. He has a fair bit to find officially but looks an interesting colt on three runs to date.11/4 as of Monday what I roughly envisaged.

I feel LIMESTONE brings by far the strongest form lines into this. The way he was outpaced and stayed at Navan on last run bodes well for future trips. Wednesday is a staying, a bit further, and that should suit. Posting this some 72 hours prior as I envisaged he would not only be shorter but favourite. There is an each-way angle waiting; see if they are declared. The stable are in excellent form coming into the Royal Meeting. Envisaged he'd be around 2/1 mark getting little value this early.

This is a race with a number of absentees from the initial entries. It's wide open. ALTA REGINA is four points bigger than I envisaged, assuming JD opts for this ride. She holds an entry on Friday. She was hugely impressive on debut at Lingfield, winning by four and a quarter lengths eased down. This was despite running green. If this race doesn't come too soon (debut 30th May), she looks interesting at a price. Opposition was nothing special that afternoon and she has not yet been tested, but the manner of her victory was eye-catching. 12/1 is fair value and is bigger than I envisaged.

Valiancy could well be a class apart from these, but an 8-pound penalty makes this tough following his Hamilton win last time. At three times those odds, DAIQUIRI BAY has some strong form in deep handicaps as a three-year-old. Judging by his Newmarket seasonal return, he's trained on. This step up in trip from that mile and a half should pose no issues. The strong pace and current ground conditions should suit. Despite the large field, I envisaged he'd be vying for second favouritism at around the 4/1 mark and certainly not 7/1.

Haatem won this race last season, and this clearly looks to have been his seasonal target. He was entitled to need the Goodwood comeback run after a nine-month layoff. I envisaged he'd be around 11/2, so getting a little value at the current odds is fair as I write this. After winning this race last season, he won the Jersey Stakes here in 2024, so he clearly thrives around here.

The Royal runner takes a huge percentage of the market at this early stage. There is no value in part due to connections and jockey, plus a luckless run in this contest. Last value could well lie with BEYLERBEYI, who had a busy campaign and will enjoy the hurly-burly of a strong pace and big field to aim at. He will also enjoy the ground. This trip will suit him. Hopefully he gets a better ride than at Epsom at the beginning of the month. 12/1 is about price i envisaged win bet

This is my NAP for Day 1 at 40/1, bigger in odd places. SIEMPRE ARTURO caught my attention when eye-catching fifth after a six-month layoff at York at the beginning of May, beaten just under 3 lengths. The step up in trip is unknown. He looks an intriguing runner, and Jason Watson retains the ride. I envisaged him being nearer 16/1??"20/1, marking a double and getting some good value. Although I'm posting 72 hours prior, I can only see his price coming in.

A shocking turnout for the Group 1 St James's Palace Stakes. Bow Echo continued his progress from two to three years when running out a convincing 2000 Guineas winner, bringing up career win number four. No chink in his armour; he looks a potential superstar. I envisaged 1/2 to be his price; at 4/5 I feel we are getting some outstanding value. I think he will win and by a wide margin.

Think this year's Coventry could throw up a shock. I'll be splitting my stakes between two: God Given Talent, who won despite greenness on debut, and Cut A Dash. The latter was very overwhelmed in prelims on debut at York but travelled like a dream in the race. He could be called the winner from some way out and also clocked a very good time. This bigger field and stiffer opposition will ask more, but I envisaged around 6/1, so at 4 points with bigger 4 places on offer could well cause the upset, with the Hannon yard in good form. At a huge price, a saver on the Brian Meehan entry might be worthwhile. Debutantes tend to come on for their first run and have a similar profile to the yard's winner back in 2024, hence big prices being offered.

If Speech were to underperform, MORE THUNDER could well be the beneficiary. He did nothing but improve last season. His only poor run came in La Forêt in France, where he was poorly placed. He was second behind Notable Speech in the Lockinge when trying the trip for the first time, staying on strongly. (Why, if they wanted him to run over a trip to see if he would stay, was he ridden so negatively?) That didn't really tell us much. I'm really hoping Tom rides him more positively on this occasion. Trip, strong running guaranteed from a pace angle, and the ground is perfect. Expecting a huge run. On at fancy prices ante-post, impossible to keep out of the frame.

Such a small island, Cape Verde did brilliantly to qualify for this WC, but the fairytale should end here. Very surprised Spain are not asked to give up more on this AH. They've been beaten once in their last twenty matches in all competitions/friendlies. The only defeat came against Portugal last June after penalties in the UEFA Nations League play-off final. I envisaged shorter odds and them giving up 4 at the price & line. I'm happy to get involved some 8 weeks in advance, as I can only see the price contracting. Cape Verde don't score many. They are meeting vastly superior players in terms of quality. The pace of the Spanish will be their undoing. Since qualifying they've lost 3 and drawn 1 of their friendly games.
