1 BALLYMOUNT BOY (IRE) (-) 9-7 (1)

Br B c Camacho - Kasalla (IRE) Callum Rodriguez J

O Keatley Racing Owners Group & D Moore

B Fontstown Stud Ltd

Adrian Keatley, Malton T

Half-brother to The Met, won twice at 7f and 1m 1f. A half-brother to a couple of winners over longer trips, he cost 110,000 euros and offers a fair bit of appeal on pedigree. His yard has been quiet on the juvenile front so far this season, though. Official BHA Rating -

2 DARK POINTS (IRE) (44) 46 9-7 (2)

Br B c Blue Point (IRE) - Dark Rose Angel (IRE) Andrew Mullen J

O Mr Hussain Alabbas Lootah Charlie Johnston, Middleham T

B Mr Hussain Alabbas Lootah Johnston Racing Ltd, Hussain Lootah Investment Group S

Dam won at 1m. Unplaced in both starts. Finished 20l behind Love Billy Boy when last of 6 at 18-1 on his latest outing at Musselburgh over 5f (good to soft) in April. He needs a big step forward on but stepping up in trip and the forecast faster ground can help today Official BHA Rating -

3 HAVANARAMA (GB) (17) 40 9-7 (4)

Br B c Havana Grey - Madame Paco David Allan J

O Ford & Owen Hugo Palmer Malpas T

B Whitsbury Manor Stud

NAF S

Dam unraced. Unplaced in both previous starts. Beaten 6l behind Politico at 9-2 when last of 7 on his latest outing at Chester over 6f (good) last month. He is open to improvement on his first start away from the idiosyncrasies of the Roodee, and he is noted. Official BHA Rating -

4 INDIVAR (IRE) (-)

9-7 (3)

Br B c Blue Point (IRE) - Bitter Lake (USA) Jason Watson J

O Mr F. Gillespie David O’Meara, Upper Helmsley T

B Airlie Stud/Mrs S Rogers/Rosemont Stud

Half-brother to Loch Lundie, who won at 1m and was placed over the same trip in a German Listed race. He cost 250,000gns and, given there is a lot to like about his chance on pedigree, he is an interesting prospect for a top yard. Official BHA Rating -

5 ROSENZOO (IRE) (-)

9-7 (6)

Br Ch c Zoffany (IRE) - Rosenreihe (IRE) Joe Fanning J

O Kingsley Park 37 - Gold

Charlie Johnston, Middleham T

B Gestut Wittekindshof Johnston Racing Ltd S

Half-brother to Hint Of Stars, won three times at 1m 3f and 1m 4f. A stablemate of Dark Points, he is also a half-brother to five other winners and has an appealing profile despite his pedigree suggesting a sterner test of stamina may suit further down the line. Official BHA Rating -

6 SHOWBOATED (GB) (17) 0

Br B c Showcasing - Danseuse d’Etoile (IRE)

O D P Van Der Hoeven & D G Pryde

9-7 (7)

Alex Jary (7) J

Nigel Tinkler, Malton T

B SAS Haras Voltaire Alexanders York S

Dam unraced. Beaten 17l behind Native American at 66-1 when last of 9 on his racecourse debut at York over 6f (good to firm) last month. His inexperience was a telling factor that day but he is entitled to have come on for the run and he is dangerous to dismiss. Official BHA Rating -

7 SI SI SENOR (IRE) (-)

9-7 (5)

Br B c Invincible Spirit (IRE) - Mihrab (USA) Paul Mulrennan J

O The Moffats David Loughnane Tern Hill T

B Irish National Stud Dave Loughnane Racing S

Dam won twice at 7f and 1m. He appeals on paper and, given he travels a long way to make his debut for a yard which has made a reasonable start with it’s juveniles, he is another to keep a close eye on when the betting market warms up. Official BHA Rating -

8 STRONG REQUEST (GB) (23) 6

9-7 (8)

Br B c Ardad (IRE) - Mara Grey (IRE) Clifford Lee J

O Sheikh Juma Dalmook Al Maktoum

B Saeed Nasser Al Romaithi

K. R. Burke, Leyburn T

Full brother to Crispy Cat, won twice at 5f Well beaten at 7-2 behind Asadna when last of 6 on his racecourse debut at Ripon over 6f (good) last month. He represents a yard boasting a healthy strike-rate with two-yearolds on turf this season, but improvement is needed. Official BHA Rating -

DECLARED RUNNERS 8 2022: CLEARPOINT 2 9 7 Oisin Orr EVENS (Richard Fahey) 5 ran

Probable S.P’s: 5-2 Indivar (IRE), 7-2 Rosenzoo (IRE), 9-2 Ballymount Boy (IRE), 5-1 Havanarama (GB), 7-1 Si Si Senor (IRE), 10-1 Strong Request (GB), 16-1 Dark Points (IRE), 25-1 Showboated (GB)

INDIVAR, whose dam is a half-sister to Group 1 winner Lyric Of Light, looks the part on paper and he could well follow in the footsteps of his mother by making a winning racecourse debut. It’s possible that Rosenzoo will emerge as the pick of Charlie Johnston’s two intended runners and he too warrants close consideration. Similar sentiments apply to Si Si Senor, while Havanarama may be the best of those with form already in the book.

Winner of six races from 6f to 1m on good to firm and soft ground and on the all-weather. A winner at 11-1 at Musselburgh over 1m on his latest outing earlier this month, beating Chinese Spirit by a head. He relished the return to a mile and a 1lb rise may not halt him. Official BHA Rating 65

B Kildaragh Stud Adra Projects Ltd S

A winner at 7-1 at Wetherby over 1m (good) on her latest outing last month, beating Red Command by 1/2l, her first win from 10 starts. She could improve for that confidence-boosting success and a 2lb rise in the handicap may not be enough to prevent her following up. Official BHA Rating 59

2ND 3RD 4TH TIME

Viva Voce and Bay Dream Believer both arrive on the back of a victory over 1m and they are likely to go well in search of a double, but they have gone up in the ratings for those wins and slight preference is for VICTORIA FALLS. Hugo Palmer’s filly has remained in fine form since scoring off 2lb lower at Wolverhampton in March and another bold bid looks assured. Jkr Cobbler went close over 7f here latest and is another to consider now back up in trip.

RACE RESULT DISTANCES

In an interesting race it may be worth siding with STREETSCAPE after a trio of solid efforts this season. He is related to St Leger runner-up The Geezer so there is hope he may improve for this distance. The four-year-old might have enough class to hold off the attentions of both recent course second Baez, and the intriguing Jack Yeats, who ran well off this mark last year and is fit from a NH campaign. totewin: Streetscape toteeachway: Baez

Stewards Note:

PAINTERS PALETTE: Following its run on 20/4/2023 it was reported that the horse boiled over in the prelims.

Probable S.P’s: 11-4 Rory (GB), 10-3 Hortzadar (GB), 4-1 Painters Palette (IRE), Garden Oasis (GB), 8-1 Young Fire (FR), 10-1 Tilsitt (FR), 16-1 Cisco Disco (IRE)

Narrowly denied over C&D last time out, HORTZADAR must hold every chance if building upon that effort as he looks to strike off a mark 9lb lower than his last win. Runner-up at Pontefract last time out, Garden Oasis can give him the most to think about along with Rory, who usually goes well here. Painters Palette would be a key player as well if bouncing back to form.

DISTANCES

Breguet Boy arguably sets the standard on the back of his Musselburgh win two starts ago and second at Hamilton last time. That said, marginal preference is for the unexposed CHURCHELLA, who put in a career-best effort on her handicap bow recently and she may have more improvement to come. Alpina Express has a similar profile to the selection and should not be discounted, while Whatacracker completes the shortlist totewin: Churchella toteeachway: Breguet Boy

RACE RESULT DISTANCES

STAY SMART got the better of the reopposing One Last Hug (second) and Sixcor (third) when gaining the success over C&D last time out that his previous form deserved. He had hit the crossbar both here and at Musselburgh before making all over track and trip eight days ago and even a 5lb penalty isn’t expected to stop this in-form five-year-old from producing another bold showing. Of the others, keep an eye on Primo’s Comet coming back to the minimum trip.

DISTANCES

There was a lot to like about EMILY POST’s seasonal/stable debut over this trip at Wetherby last month, when beaten just over a length in second, and she’s entitled to come on for that outing. She could go one better, although the switch to more positive tactics worked the oracle for Ahamoment when scoring at Musselburgh 10 days ago and he looks a serious threat, despite a 4lb rise. Merricourt was a length and a quarter back in second that day and must be considered now 4lb better off at the weights with the winner.
