2025: (10 ran) Sierra Sands ( 2 ) , Age 2 , Wgt 9-7 , SP 6/5 - Edward Greatrex / E A L Dunlop

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
QUEENS BANDIT was picked off late when runner-up over a mile at Brighton last time. Charlie Clover's filly finished clear of the rest and the drop to this trip looks the logical move. Lord Percy has plenty to find with the selection on latest running, although he could make the frame with any improvement. Lion's Den has more scope than Shaqra Queen of the remainder.
Top Tip:
Queens Bandit
(7)
Watch out for:
Lord Percy
(2)
This looks a match race between Lion's Den and QUEENS BANDIT. The former was unlucky not to be a fair bit closer when midfield on debut after meeting trouble and should improve on that with a clear passage. Preference is for the latter who has placed on both starts so far and was only caught late last time having kicked on too soon. Dropping back in distance she should be tough to peg back with Lord Percy expected to fill the placed in a weak contest.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
INKBERROW landed the odds with the minimum of fuss at Wolverhampton. The Kodi Bear filly easily beat a solid yardstick in Lahan Kingdom, rated 70, and she can defy a penalty in this company on that evidence. Black Orchid has finished runner-up in all five starts so far, with her latest attempt at Southwell the best of those efforts. She looks the main danger, ahead of Royale Union and Poor Relation.
Top Tip:
Inkberrow
(1)
Watch out for:
Black Orchid
(6)
A pair stand out here in Black Orchid and INKBERROW. The former has an experience edge having shown a consistent level of form over sprint trips for some time on a sound surface. She could find a bit more in first time cheekpieces so is feared but the latter is preferred despite her penalty. She didn't beat all that much last time but she had plenty in hand and this looks like another weak contest. The inconsistent Poor Relation may do best of the rest dropping back in trip.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
TEMPLE has been gelded since finishing a respectable third at Thirsk in July. He has plenty of scope for improvement and is taken to make his first start for James Owen's yard a winning one. Parisian Scholar beat the selection when landing that Thirsk contest, but he'll do well to confirm superiority on 6lb worse terms. The unexposed Bay Of Myths could prove a bigger threat back on quicker ground.
Top Tip:
Temple
(8)
Watch out for:
Bay Of Myths
(7)
A tight contest can go to the unexposed TEMPLE who has been freshened up but represents a dual purpose yard which can get them ready after a break. He proved steadily progressive in handicaps in the summer and is open to further improvement in the first time cheekpieces. The similarly lightly raced Bay Of Myths failed to stay 14f on easy ground under an aggressive ride last time but can quickly bounce back down in trip. He is feared along with Parisian Scholar who is on a workable mark and could get an easy lead.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Mister Sox made the most of a drop in grade when scoring at Pontefract and a 2lb nudge up the ratings looks fair. That said, a return to class 4 company could leave the six-year-old vulnerable once more, with the downgraded BALDOMERO taken to capitalise. Mick Appleby's eight-year-old was beaten just a short head at York recently and compensation may be imminent. Rosenpur and Belsito are others of interest at this level.
Top Tip:
Baldomero
(3)
Watch out for:
Mister Sox
(7)
The frustrating BALDOMERO can snap his losing run. He was only caught late by an in form well handicapped rival last time in a much better race and remains 9lb below his last winning mark. In form Tyger Bay was given too much to do on his follow up attempt last time and gets to race off the same mark here. He is feared most ahead of Mister Sox who ended his barren spell last time and remains well treated on his old efforts despite a 2lb rise.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
DIAMONT KATIE improved for being ridden more prominently when scoring over C&D with something in hand. A 5lb rise could prove to be lenient for Karl Burke's filly and she edges the vote over Pontefract winner Brighton Boy. The Gregorian gelding shouldn't have any issues stepping back up from 6f and isn't taken lightly dropping in class. Stablemate Quest For Fun is also of interest given his current form.
Top Tip:
Diamont Katie
(4)
Watch out for:
Brighton Boy
(1)
QUEST FOR FUN has been in excellent form recently and can gain a deserved first victory of the year. His penultimate placed effort has been franked and he should get his desired strong pace to aim at again from Von Trotter. That rival has been steadily progressing since being upped to 7f and looks a big danger raised another 4lb with the sharper track a plus. Diamont Katie was a ready winner over C&D last time so also has to be respected despite a 5lb rise.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
Having landed the spoils on five of his last six outings, it would be folly to rule out Classy Clarets given his upward trajectory. That said, the five-year-old is effectively racing off 9lb higher given the change of apprentice, which may be enough to anchor him. Little separates last month's C&D winner Vince Le Prince and runner-up Indefensible at the revised weights but it may be worth chancing TATTIE BOGLE, who could improve for the introduction of a visor.
Top Tip:
Tattie Bogle
(5)
Watch out for:
Vince Le Prince
(9)
VINCE LE PRINCE ended a long losing run last time in decisive fashion and remains well treated on his best form after a 2lb rise. If he is able to get across from his wide draw he should be able to continue his excellent course record confirming placings with Indefensible who has proven steadily progressive over 7f. That rival conceded first run to the selection last time and gets a couple of pounds pull at the weights. Tattie Bogle has struggled in this class previously but he is generally consistent and may be able to grab the final place in a first time visor.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
TOCA MADERA has been in excellent form and should go very close in search of a three-timer. He appreciated the drop back to the minimum trip at Beverley after finishing in mid-division when sent off favourite for the Portland, and proved that success on the Westwood was no flash in the pan when following up at York. He's difficult to oppose in this sort of form and gets the nod ahead of Gold Star Hero and Baker Blue.
Top Tip:
Toca Madera
(2)
Watch out for:
Gold Star Hero
(3)
This could be dominated by the pair at the top of the weights in Baker Blue and TOCA MADERA. The former has proven progressive this term and looks well treated back in a handicap following an excellent Listed run last time where he refused to settle. The latter is expected to complete the hat trick though having gone up just 4lb for his latest victory where he idled in front. He has performed well in numerous top sprint handicaps this term and this contest looks easier. The same can be said of Schrodinger's Cat who was let down by a slow start last time but continues to ease in the weights. He could go well at a bigger price along with last year's winner Lexington Blitz who will appreciate the return to this venue.

To give you a quick snapshot of each horse’s form we’ve introduced the following icons which represent the following:
You can gain more information by hovering your mouse over the horse name or icons.
ARRANGE is holding her form really well and deserves to get her head in front. A C&D winner, the eight-year-old showed her versatility trip-wise when grabbing second over 1m4f at Chester and wasn't beaten far here over 2m in June. Everything points to a bold showing and she's got top apprentice rider Lauren Young in the saddle. Captain Cairney and Wasthatok are the dangers.
Top Tip:
Arrange
(3)
Watch out for:
Captain Cairney
(5)
Dual winner of this contest BOLLIN NEIL can continue his excellent course record. He has slipped back to the same mark which he took this off last year despite some solid efforts recently and his reappearance runner up effort has worked out very well. Veteran Arrange hasn't won in a while but she has tumbled down the weights and has been running back into form of late. She can provide the biggest threat along with dual purpose performer Wasthatok who was in good form when last seen but may just need this.
