BATTLE STRIDE looks very interesting in this race. Michael Bell has a decent strike rate at Bath and a super 30% SR in the last fortnight. This horse is untested on fast ground, but Michael is an experienced trainer and wouldn't run him if it wasn't suitable for him. This horse is a massive player.

I'm not just picking this horse because I love the name CHOCOLATE TRUFFLES, but also because this mare is by Soldier of Fortune, and he is one of my favourite sires in relation to Irish jumps racing. His progeny are very effective on this going, and the trip shouldn't be a problem here. Worth a small punt each way.

SQUADRON LEADER by a great sprinter in Mehmas. He won over slightly further (6f) at Group 1 level, so can easily get involved here. I know the market says Richard Hughes's runner should win, BUT when I checked Flatstats, I didn't find the results supported that theory. Archie Watson's record is definitely more convincing, and that's why I will be backing this horse each way.

LUMINARE was declared in another race not long ago before being declared a non-runner. I have no doubt that the trainer feels this is a much more appropriate starting point and have no hesitation, therefore, in recommending this horse in this race. She's in against her own sex today, and that could make it a bit more of an easier start. The stable's two-year-olds have been in decent form (2 wins and a place from 7 runs). The strike rate of runners for this yard in class 5 races is currently 23.91%, which I think is pretty smart. May has been a solid month so far for Ollie Sangster. Huge player.

The booking of Ryan Moore to ride LUMINARE really catches my attention. He's ridden for Sangster 2 times in the last year and won 1 race. Yet to win a class 2 in 2023, but his strike rate in the last year is high enough to make it not a concern. 30% SR in May. The draw is fine too.

FAIR WIND hails from the Owen Burrows yard. This trainer's horses are performing amazingly well. In the last fortnight, he's had 4 wins from 5 starts (80% SR). This trainer and jockey combo has a 50% SR in the past year, which bodes well. The horse will like the going today and has a good record over the trip. The trainer's 66.7% strike rate in this class adds to the confidence behind this horse. Massive player even from his wide draw.

This horse is extremely well-bred. SAFE AND SOUND is a Golden Horn filly out of Crimson Ribbons, both of whom went on to win over 1 and 12f in time. 7f does seem to be a fairly common starting point for those due to race over further in time, and I would suggest that even though it's her debut, there's an expectation that she'll put this to bed fairly easily. Huge player.

TENOYA is a nicely bred 3-year-old here with trainer Paddy Twomey. This race looks like it's at this horse's mercy. This trainer is absolutely flying at the moment and here's a few stats: 40% strike rate on turf in the last fortnight, 33.33% SR at Cork in 2023, 41.67% with his 3-year-olds, he's 1 from 3 over the trip, and a 50% SR in May.

SPY CHIEF has to be the best bet of the day. This Kingman gelding has exceptional breeding and has been found an easy enough race in which to make his debut. Looks certain to get at least a mile in time, which makes starting over 6f very interesting. Trainer's 3-year-old runners and those at Kempton are running pretty well of late. Trainer's 28.21% SR in class 5 races is a bonus, and SPY CHIEF's 750,000 guineas price tag suggests this horse could well be a very high-class horse.

SIR LOWRYS PASS has a massive chance to win this. His stats are pretty compelling in terms today, particularly the fact he's 1 from 1 over course and distance. He's still a lightly-raced individual with lots of potential. So that, and the fact this yard's 4-year-olds are running well, makes him a leading player.

FIELD OF GOLD looks sure to have been primed to perfection for today's effort. He's by the mighty Kingman, who himself was a true legend. After Harry Charlton's success with Cosmic Year, it suggests this horse is a strong contender. John Gosden has his string in red-hot form, and his strike rate at Newmarket is as good as you're likely to see. Much was made of the trainer and jockey combo last season, but they are flying so far this season (32.56% SR). The yard's milers are in strong form in 2025, and their runners in this class of race are profitable to follow in 2025 (22.22% SR). Massive player.

WOODHAY WONDER has an awful lot going for her in this contest. She absolutely loves Newmarket having raced four times over course and distance and won 3 times and been placed 1 time. She's had 10 runs on similar going and has won 5 and been placed on 3 occasions. She won 4 out of 7 races in this class of race. Today's jockey knows her well and I'm really hopeful she'll make the places.

Having looked in detail, I think the winner may well not be one of the current market principals. Instead, I'm going with FORT GEORGE. He's entering a handicap for the first time and looks to have a very lenient mark for his debut. His prior races have all been on the all-weather, and I'm not sure the front-running tactics suited last time. He had traffic problems in the race in November, so I wouldn't be surprised to see a massive run.

I have a strong feeling about RUMBA NUMBA in this. Roger Varian's runners have been very good overall recently, and this horse has plenty of appeal here. He has a 21.05% strike rate with his runners at Yarmouth in the past year, and his 29.73% SR with his 3-year-olds is great for this point in the season. A 20% SR with runners over the trip and a 30% SR in this class of race are both excellent supporting stats. Good chance on debut.

Lots of people may look at the 4th and 5th places for his previous two runs and not fancy this horse, BUT it's worth mentioning that those runs were over 7f, which is possibly too sharp, and 9 furlongs, which is maybe a stretch of this son of Twilight Son's stamina. Back at the mile, a trip this horse has won over in January, this horse looks a good bet. The booking of jockey Jack Mitchell has to be seen as a massive positive for this horse's chances.

The trainer has had 2 wins over this trip in 2025 and 6 places, so horses are clearly running well over this distance.

I tipped DICKENSIAN first time out and I'm siding with him again. The horse that finish second that day won next time out, albeit in a lower class he did it impressively (by 4.5 lengths). Kevin Ryan has been in fine form of late and his 2 year olds are 2 wins from 7 runs. When this trainer and jockey combo team up they are very profitable to follow (£22.50 to a £1 stake if backing all runners(IBAR)). He also has had a great 7 wins and 6 places from just 27 runs over the trip. Ryan's runners in this class of race have a 26.32% SR and return a whopping £24 to a £1 stake IBAR. Bet of the day for me.
