LEADERBOARDS
Andrew Mullen was the biggest mover in the jockeys’ championship race at our Scottish Sun Ladies’ Night on Saturday with a last-race winning ride on Cabinet Maker adding to his two earlier seconds and a third. Current table-topper Joe Fanning was off riding at Haydock but Paul Mulrennan closed the gap on the leader to 4 points with a third place on Ayr Poet with Mullen now snapping at their heels in third place.
Iain Jardine added 9 points to his trainers’ title total to move on to 67 for the season but leader Jim Goldie is showing little sign of slowing up in his quest to retain the championship here at Ayr and two seconds and a third kept his tally ticking over and well ahead of the rest. Mike Smith’s latest winner with Black Friday moved him up to third and it was a good night for Katie Scott with a winner and a second.
No change at the top of the owners’ title race but Ayr Poet’s third place moved the Reluctant Suitors up into a clear 4th place and just a point off the three jointleaders.

A comfortable winner over this distance at Musselburgh earlier this month, LET HER LOOSE rates the one to beat despite a 3lb rise for that success. Archie Watson’s mare has been fairly consistent this season and can get the better of Smart Lass, who was beaten just a head into fourth over an extended 1m 4f, also at Musselburgh, last Friday. Sameem is another to consider going back up in distance.

Not beaten far over C&D last time out, VORTIGAN has shown enough in recent starts to suggest that he can finally break the maiden at the 10th time of asking. Michael Dods’ charge is narrowly preferred to the capable Rwenearlytheredad and American Affair, who bounced back to form with a strong runner-up effort over C&D last month.

NOVAK secured a staying-on victory over 6f at this track in June and the nature of that win left a strong impression that he can land a four-timer now returned to 7f. Although he is now rated 3lb higher for that latest success, he remains on an upward curve and there could be more to come. Judgment Call has to shoulder a 5lb penalty following a facile win at Musselburgh earlier this month but is still feared most, ahead of Ascot Adventure totewin: Novak

JKR COBBLER is in the form of his life at present and the step up in trip should not inconvenience as he looks to be bring up a four-timer at this track. A 5lb penalty for his most recent win looks manageable, and the son of Awtaad could have too much for another course specialist Retirement Beckons and Hostelry, who has been in consistent form since scoring over C&D off 3lb lower in May.

TREMENDOUS TIMES was able to race more amenably than he did at Haydock in June when narrowly denied at Carlisle last time out. This represents a good opportunity for the son of Time Test to open his account, though Sea In The Dark, who bumped into a major improver at Thirsk in May, ought to throw down a stern challenge. My Harrison George wasn’t disgraced over 1m at York last month and he merits consideration now returned to further.

FORM RATINGS
Included in the form guide below each horse is a form rating, calculated from the horse’s previous performances, taking into account a number of variables such as finishing position, distance won/beaten by, horses beaten/beaten by, weight carried, race time (compared with the standard time), going allowance, number of days since that performance, etc.
Horses which have not raced will not have a form rating, as may some horses which have raced but not recently in Britain or their performances to-date have not yet merited a rating.
