Race 1

INDISPENSABLE’s second-placed finish at Goodwood is working out better than expected, with both the third and fourth winning next time out, and a breakthrough success could be on the cards now dropped into a class 5 event. There were positives to be gleaned from Full Gambit’s debut third at Catterick earlier in the month and Amy Murphy’s filly looks most likely to chase the selection home, marginally ahead of Specific Times.

WIN: INDISPENSABLE

Race 2

DANGER: FULL GAMBIT

BONDI BAY caught the eye when staying on into second place on her opening bid at Salisbury last month and could prove tough to beat with that experience now under her belt. Bright finished behind two subsequent winners when third at Wolverhampton in May and isn’t one to take lightly now stepped up to 6f on this switch to turf. Moralisa requires some improvement to topple the main protagonists but still makes most appeal of the remainder.

WIN: BONDI BAY

Race 3

DANGER: BRIGHT

Bloomwithgrace ran to a similar level as his seasonal debut when runner-up in a fillies’ noviceatGoodwoodrecentlyandmayfinda2lbriseonthisreturntohandicapcompany leaves her vulnerable. Although Tom Dascombe’s charge still enters calculations, KHINJANI makes most appeal. The daughter of Sir Percy offered something to work with when staying on into third on her return to action at Redcar last month, while handicap debutant Anjo Bonita arrives in good heart and completes the shortlist.

WIN: KHINJANI

Race 4

DANGER: : BLOOMWITHGRACE

ANOTHER BAAR arrives in search of a hat-trick of victories having defied a 10lb rise for an impressive C&D success at Beverley last Sunday. He carries a 6lb penalty for that latest victory and may prove to be a tough nut to crack. Mutaany is worth another chance following a below-par effort at Newmarket in a contest that has worked out well, while others to consider include Tribal Hunter and Rock Of England.

WIN: ANOTHER BAAR

RACE 5

DANGER: MUTAANY

ZIMMERMAN has produced two solid efforts in defeat this season, with a runner-up effort atThirsk backed upwith a fourth at Hamilton, and the four-year-old appears to have been found a suitable opportunity to get back to winning ways Knightswood wonhereonhispenultimatestartandcommandsrespect,whileAuldToonLooncould have more to offer having got off the mark at Haydock last time.

WIN: ZIMMERMAN

Race 6

WIN: AZAIM

Race 7

DANGER: KNIGHTSWOOD

AZAIM finished a creditable third over this trip at Carlisle earlier this month and Michael Dods’ inmate must hold every chance of being in the mix now in classified stakes company. He shaped as if further progression could be on the cards and is fancied to get the better of Zebadaay, who finished a fair fifth, also at Carlisle, on his most recent run. Bedazzling completes the shortlist.

DANGER: ZEBADAAY

Only denied by three-quarters of a length when finishing third at Southwell on his most recent run, Primo rates a big player on the pick of his form. However, a 2lb drop from CANARIA PRINCE’s latest outing could be what it takes for him to progress and Tim Easterby’s five-year-old rates the one to beat. Golden Gal and Hot Scoop are others worthy of consideration.

WIN: CANARIA PRINCE
