Race Summary

In a wide-open heat, only a tentative vote can go to GOOD GRACIOUS. The daughter of Kingman took a significant step forward when fitted with first-time blinkers, winning in good style at Ascot 18 days ago, and a subsequent 8lb rise might not halt further progress. The hat-trick seeking Rowayeh appeals as a likely player from 5lb higher than her handicap debut success at Sandown, while Bridestones and Royal Dress can also figure. Back See Daa and Novus are just two others to consider.

Win: GOOD GRACIOUS Danger: Rowayeh

With 20 runners declared for this Fillies’ Handicap, it’s a great chance to play the Swinger, where you need just two of your selections to be placed in the first three - finding 2nd and 3rd in last year’s race paid £20.05 to a £1 stake. This time, aim to do that with Stormy Sea, Rowayeh, Espresso and Rajindri.

BET TYPE: Swinger SELECTIONS: Stormy Sea, Rowayeh, Espresso, Rajindri
