BETTING EXPLAINED
Select your horse. Note their name and saddlecloth number
Choose your bet. ‘To win’ or ‘each-way’ are popular types of bet.
‘To win’ is for your horse to come first.
‘Each-way’ is for your horse to come first or to be placed. It’s two bets, so ‘£2 each-way’ = £4 total bet.
Decide the amount – or stake – you are comfortable to bet.
Place your bet. There are different places to bet on course; The Tote, racecourse bookmakers, betting shop or online. Each option offers a different experience.
Collect. Once ‘Weighed-in’ has been announced, present your betting slip and collect any winnings.

DECLARED RUNNERS 15 2024: GLENFINNAN (IRE) 4 9 12 Oisin Murphy 13-2 (Michael Dods) 10 ran Visor worn by No 12. Running for the first time since Gelding No 9. Stewards Note:
GALERON: Following its run on 26/7/2025 it was reported that the horse had an irregular heartbeat.
WALSON’S LAW: Following its run on 1/8/2025 it was reported that the horse would prefer a quicker surface.
HEADMASTER: Following its run on 2/8/2025 it was reported that the trainer could not explain the poor run.
KINDEST NATION: Following its run on 3/8/2025 it was reported that the horse was slowly away.
YOKKELL: Following its run on 7/8/2025 it was reported that the horse was denied a clear run.
Probable S.P’s: 4-1 Kodi Lion (IRE), 13-2 Woroodd (IRE), 9-1 Headmaster (GB), 10-1 God ofWar (GB), 11-1 Galeron (IRE), 12-1 Cavolo Nero (GB), 14-1 Walson’s Law (GB), 18-1 Tarkhan (GER), Glenfinnan (IRE), 20-1 Ellaria Sand (GB), 25-1 Metabolt (GB), Angel Hunter (GB), 28-1 Kindest Nation (IRE), 50-1 Arctic Grey (IRE), Yokkell (IRE) PLAY SMARTER
This iswide open but it could payto sidewith KODI LIONwhowasn’t seento ideal effectwhen an excellent runner-up at Haydock last time and can resume winning ways nudged up just 1lb with William Buick now up William Haggas’ unexposed Headmaster looked ill at ease on the track on his handicap debut at Goodwood last time and could emerge as the main danger, while last year’s victor Glenfinnan and the handily-weighted Metabolt are others who can have a say. Woroodd completes the shortlist.

DECLARED RUNNERS 14
2024: FLYING FRONTIER 4 8 11 Clifford Lee 11-2 (James Tate) 6 ran Hood worn by No 1. Blinkers worn by No 3, 14. Tongue Strap worn by No 13. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No 6, 10 Running for the first time since Gelding No 11. Stewards Note:
GREY CUBAN: Following its run on 29/7/2025 it was reported that the horse suffered interference in running. ALPHACRUCIS: Following its run on 2/8/2025 it was reported that the horse was denied a clear run late-on. THEORY OFTIDES: Following its run on 12/9/2024 it was reported that the horse hung badly left-handed. Probable S.P’s: 9-2 Saddadd (IRE), Dangerman (GB), 9-1 Castle Cove (IRE), Alpha Crucis (IRE), 10-1 Flying Frontier (GB), 12-1 Grey Cuban (GB), 18-1 Mustazeed (IRE), Gaassee (IRE), 20-1 Jeff Koons (IRE), 28-1 Brioni (FR), Take Heart (IRE), 33-1 Flight Leader (GB), Theory of Tides (GB), 40-1 Savvy Victory (IRE)
SADDADD hasn’t been seen since his London Gold Cup success in May but that has once again turned out to be one of the strongest 3-y-o handicaps of the season and he can make light of a 6lb rise and prove too strong for fellow 3-y-o Dangerman. The draw could have been kinder to Castle Cove but he’s another low-mileage sort from a leading stable who likely has his best days ahead of him.

The Gosden stable and Charlie Appleby have won 6 of the last 8 runnings so PUBLISH and Pacific Avenue may be the pairto focus on. The former looked good over C&D last month and can emulate the yard’s top-class performer Too Darn Hot who won his maiden here before taking this in 2018. He’s Waliim won well enough on his recent debut to suggest he can also make an impact at Group level.

PLAY SMARTER
ACT OF KINDNESS, a mightily expensive yearling, stands out on paper being a half-sister to smart 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Ylang Ylang, so she earns the vote before market clues. Loving Queen and She Commands are other likely types on paper, while Deedaydiva made an encouraging start to her career at Newmarket 3 weeks ago and can put that experience to good use.

Unsurprisingly lots with chances but the manner ofANOTHER ABBOT’s Brighton Bullet success suggests William Haggas’ well-bred 3-y-o hasn’t yet finished improving and he may well be up to defying the handicapper once more. Woolhampton is lurking on a handy mark and feared, along with recent eyecatchers Aces Wild and Emeralds Pride. Lil Guff is yet to finish out of the frame here and also commands respect.
