Bright Applause beat FOSSGATE narrowly in this a year ago when receiving 2lb but the runner-up is 7lb better off and James Bethell's veteran, who will have been targeted at this, can take his revenge and gain his seventh victory on the track. Tetbury is a major threat as the former French-trained s...

AGERZAM won his maiden over track and trip last season but never figured on his comeback in much better company at Newmarket. Roger Varian's colt should prove a different proposition in this grade and is taken to reverse latest running with Brazen and Purcell, though the latter should be in the mix...

BLUEMOUNTAINBEACH will probably start a warm order after a fine racecourse debut behind Tropical Three at Punchestown in April and the winner, plus third-placed Storm Away, have won subsequently which suggests Willie Mullins' filly should have the edge here. Dubh Eile has shown promise in both star...

The Newmarket-based Duke Of Grazeon is related to several winners and is one to note in the betting but STRICTLY SILCA is undoubtedly the form pick and it's about time she was winning. Her second to Toronado in an Ascot Listed race last July is far superior to anything achieved by these rivals and,...

A couple of these stand out on recent form. Arashi scored over track and trip last month and has ran well in a couple of subsequent starts but he has a bit to find with BOSTON BLUE on latest running. The latter also registered a course and distance win last month and Tony Carroll's charge is taken ...

ANNIE OTHER easily landed a chase here last July and is just 4lb higher. She's been waiting for fast ground and reappeared on the Flat here last month where she gained another convincing success so she'll be difficult to beat. Sands Cove, a winning bumper and hurdler, made a successful start over f...

Mayfield Girl has paid the price for her two victories in April and looks to have too much weight to concede to in-form rivals. PIPERS NOTE loves fast ground and was a very unlucky loser at Pontefract last time so is handed the vote to gain compensation. Nurpur gained her first victory on her 12th ...

UTTERANCE landed the odds in good style at Yarmouth last June. She's taken to overcome a lengthy absence and make a winning handicap debut against more exposed types. If So is in that category as she's upped in distance and 4lb higher than when scoring at Lingfield last time while Labienus has been...

The Boat People should make a chaser and her two victories over timber at Cork have been a bonus. Playtime Ben has the ability to win over fences but his jumping has left plenty to be desired so far and he may need a confidence-booster. Raajih was having only his second run over fences at Tramore l...
