Zuffolo’s PLAY SMARTER introduction also resulted in an encouraging enough effort and he is feared most, while newcomers Hoy and Lakota Lady both need close attention in the betting.

PLAY SMARTER

The most appealing of these is AFTER JOHN, who probably would’ve won granted better luck when tthird at Haydock last weekend. Strongbowe needs to bounce back following a very low-key reappearance spin, but he’s dangerous to discount and could have a significant part to play. Brazen Bolt and Lazyitis are others to consider.

5f BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

Race Description This is a five furlongs handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 71 to 90. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

With his rider’s claim more than off-setting his rise in the weights, he gets the nod to go in again tackling this PLAY SMARTER longer trip. Gold Ring scored well himself at Catterick for his new yard and is feared, along with Termonator and Champagne Terri.

PLAY SMARTER

Timeform’s three leading juveniles of last year line up in the first Classic of 2022 and it’s hard to look beyond NATIVE TRAIL after his pleasing return in the Craven. That took his unbeaten run to 5 and he looks set to improve again, with a well-run Guineas sure to suit him. Aidan O’Brien seeks a remarkable sixth winner since 2012, with Luxembourg following the same route as several others before him, including his sire. Coroebus, a stablemate of the selection, is exciting and highly respected.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

Race Description This seven furlong contest for fillies and mares aged three-years-old and upwards is another maiden stakes - a race for horses that have yet to record a racecourse victory. There are a variety of reasons why the older horses in this race could still be maidens. Stoutly bred horses are unlikely to be seen at their best over the shorter distances of their juvenile season whilst a setback or injury can curtail even the most precociously bred horse’s two-year-old career.

BETS AVAILABLE ON THIS RACE

Race Description This is a one mile handicap race for three-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 51 to 70. In a handicap the weight that each of the runners carries is determined by their official handicap rating which is based on their level of form shown so far. The aim is to ensure competitive racing by asking the higher rated horses to carry more weight than a lower rated rival. As a guide, horses rated 40 tend to be at the lower end of the scale whilst the very best performers would be rated as high as 130.

Blinkers worn by No. 2, 8. Visor worn by No. 5. Sheepskin Cheek Pieces worn by No. 3.

Stewards Note: BILLY WEDGE: Following its run on 18/4/2022 it was reported that the horse would prefer a softer surface.

LORDMAN: Following its run on 19/4/2022 it was reported that the horse was slowly away.

Probable S.P’s: 11-2 Lordman (IRE), 6-1 Under Fox (IRE), 13-2 Carnival Zain (GB), 10-1 Sir Min (IRE), 11-1 Natchez Trace (GB), Sweet Madness (IRE), 12-1 Captain Claret (GB), 14-1 First Greyed (IRE), Irv (IRE), Mac Ailey (GB), 16-1 Zumurud (IRE), 22-1 Billy Wedge (GB) LORDMAN was well backed and showed more than previously when finishing fifth on return at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 11 days ago, finishing well having been slowly into stride. One of only two 3-y-o’s in the line-up, he gets the nod to build on that upped PLAY SMARTER to 1m. Under Fox responded well to the fitting of blinkers last term and is feared, along with Sir Min and Captain Claret.
