Age 6 · 10-3

Toby Moore(7) 11%

Gary & Josh Moore 11%

10-3

5/1 9/2 5/1

Hit the line well to land a handicap at Brighton by a length ten days ago, Oj Lifestyle arrives in sharp form and goes well at this track. Suited to this trip and ground, the addition of tongue-tie and cheekpieces adds interest and the yard is in good order.

AI verdict

SR 70 suggests ability but 5/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Imperial Cult

Age 7 · 9-9

833-11

Jack Callan 14%

George Baker 10%

9-9

3/1 9/4 11/4

Back-to-back handicap wins show Imperial Cult in fine fettle, and he landed his most recent at Kempton by three lengths displaying a willing attitude. Effective over a range of distances, he will want a positive ride here as this trip is towards the shorter end of his range.

AI verdict

SR 74 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Bobacious

Age 6 · 9-8

Mason Paetel 11%

Mark Hoad 8%

9-8

4/1 7/1 10/3

Suited to this distance and surface, Bobacious was successful at Epsom last year over this course and distance and enjoys forcing the pace. His recent efforts have been modest — winless in his last five — and he was a shade below his best when fourth at Lingfield latest.

AI verdict

SR 61 suggests ability but 15/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Landed a handicap at Windsor last time out by a length off a reduced mark, Hello Cotai appears to have returned to his best form and remains competitively positioned. He handles any going and is suited to this trip, making him a solid danger.

AI verdict

SR 71 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

9/1 10/1 9/1

Without a win in his last six starts, Super Hit tracked the pace when fourth at Redcar last time, performing at his level over a distance that suits, though beaten by a wide margin. First-time hood and tongue-tie are a new angle, and conditions here are fine.

AI verdict

SR 56 suggests ability but 10/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Mrembo

Olivia Tubb 12%

Jonathan Portman 13%

9-1

9/1 13/2 17/2

In fair recent trim, Mrembo ran her race last time when fourth beaten only 1½l off this same mark, and she returns to identical conditions. Effective over this distance and at her best on a sound surface, the fitting of first-time cheekpieces adds an angle.

AI verdict

SR 64 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Laura Mongan 5%

25/1 14/1 25/1

Showed a tendency to pull hard but kept on for third at Windsor on his most recent outing, 55 days ago, and there is scope to build on that with first-time cheekpieces fitted. He handles this trip and ground, though the lengthy absence means he will need to show his peak fitness.

AI verdict

SR 51 is modest for this company — needs everything to go right at 14/1.

Haveagobeau

Olivia Haines 15%

Jim Boyle 9%

8-7

33/1 25/1 28/1

Well beaten at Lingfield last time out, ten lengths adrift of the winner, Haveagobeau needs a meaningful improvement to figure here. He does handle this trip and probably acts on most surfaces, but he is the lowest-rated runner on our figures and requires a significant step forward.

AI verdict

SR 38 suggests ability but 28/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Connor Planas 11%

Jim Boyle 9%

16/1 16/1 14/1

Performed to his level at Brighton last time when fifth, beaten 4½l, and this trip and ground suit him well enough. Yet to score in recent starts, he is capable of keeping on for minor honours if conditions fall right but faces a competitive field.

AI verdict

SR 40 suggests ability but 18/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

13/2 11/2 13/2

Ran to a consistent level on his second start when fourth at Leicester, beaten 2¼l, Confernation has solid claims over this trip and surface. He is yet to score but has run with credit in both starts and rates an honest mid-range contender.

AI verdict

SR 72 suggests ability but 11/2 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Showed ability on debut despite being beaten six lengths when fifth on soft ground, and this switch to 7f on a sounder surface looks a considerably more favourable test. He is our top-rated runner and the one to beat on these figures.

Matched his debut level on his most recent outing when sixth at Ripon, beaten eight lengths, and goes from the widest draw in the field. The pedigree carries pace and he may develop into a more interesting proposition once eligible for handicaps, but he is the lowest on our figures and needs to do considerably better here.

AI verdict

SR 135 suggests ability but 16/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

11/4 3/2 11/4

Ran an eye-catching race on his only start, going down by a neck in a maiden at Pontefract and showing himself clearly effective at 6f. A step up to 7f should unlock further improvement, and he has the profile to make an impact, though he has only the one run to his name.

AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-7 gives a real edge in this handicap.

4/1 4/1 7/2

A 30,000 euro breeze-up purchase by Blackbeard, Bullrider is unraced but makes his debut for a yard with a strong record with youngsters and has the profile to make an immediate mark. The dam is unraced though related to useful performers; he is worth treating with respect.

AI verdict

Favourable weight of 9-4 gives a real edge in this handicap.

16/1 FCST 12/1

A 35,000gns Sergei Prokofiev colt making his debut, Whiskey Galore has a dam effective at 7f which suits the trip. The trainer's yard has been quiet of late, though, and he may need this first outing to show his best.

AI verdict

SR 138 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Stepped up on her debut effort when runner-up at Wetherby latest, beaten 3¼l over 7f, and this filly is trained by a handler with a strong record at this course. She handles 6-7f on a sound surface and has good claims if she continues that progress; yet to score.

Off the track for 240 days after finishing down the field at Kempton — where he was slow out of the stalls — Fram Castle returns on a lengthy absence and is most effective on the All-Weather over 12-16f. The trainer is in good form but he has much to prove on the comeback and turf is not his ideal surface.

Beaten around four and a half lengths in a classified event at Windsor most recently and looks a shade more consistent of late after some earlier unplaced efforts; yet to find a way through in recent starts but handles the trip.

AI verdict

SR 44 suggests ability but 12/1 reflects a stiff ask in this field.

Came home strongly at Lingfield most recently, going down by two lengths off a slightly lower mark in a performance that was a clear step forward; he looks capable of competing at this level if he can reproduce that, with 12f a distance he handles.

AI verdict

SR 55 is competitive — each-way claims if conditions suit on the day.

Chamber verdict Balanced lens

Nymphaea

Speculative

Nymphaea owns one of the strongest chamber scores in this field. The Balanced lens likes the blend of SR strength (32) and market confidence (85). The profile stays composed even after the chamber introduces race-day variance.

Raced keenly and failed to fire at Yarmouth last time, beaten a long way in a handicap; she is suited by 7/8f and handles All-Weather well, but has significant ground to make up on turf after two poor recent efforts and a step forward is needed.

Finished 3¼ lengths adrift at Beverley last time, running short of his recent best off a 1lb higher mark; he tends to make the running and first-time cheekpieces may encourage that, but a big improvement in form is needed from eighth in our rankings.

Her course-and-distance form gives genuine cause for confidence — she has landed at Epsom before and is effective at 6/7f on a sound surface; she was well beaten at this course on her latest outing, though the ability she showed on that previous visit means she should not be dismissed.

Clearly needed his latest Yarmouth outing, managing little after a flat display; prior to that he was in decent form over 7/8f on good ground and All-Weather, the trainer is in form and a first-time tongue-tie is added, giving him a solid chance to bounce back here.

Performed close to his level at Sandown last time, beaten 4 lengths despite a difficult start and tending to race freely; he wears a new combination of hood and tongue-tie and draws wide, though earlier efforts show he is capable — the question is whether his upward curve has peaked.

Landed a Chester handicap by 2 lengths last time to end a run without success, showing his best form over a range of trips; a combination of first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces is added as he steps up to a new mark, and he is respected in a competitive field.

Finished at the back of the field on his first start off a much higher mark, beaten 8 lengths at the same rating he carries here; he sits at the foot of our rankings, draws wide, and another hard afternoon looks likely despite being effective over this trip on any ground.

Ran well adrift at Kempton on his most recent outing, finishing near the back; that was his only start on turf and he has yet to replicate his All-Weather performances on grass — while the connections are well regarded, he needs considerably more to feature here.
