THE BUZZ

by Wetherbee

RACE ONE

TARBAT NESS remains a maiden after 11 starts but was only beaten a length off this mark at Carlisle earlier this month, his third placed effort from three starts in 2023 A repeat of his latest performance may see him get to the front here. That said, Burnage Boy and We’ll Go Again have been running well over jumps this year and both could get involved on their return to the Flat.

WIN: TARBAT NESS

RACE TWO

DANGER: Burnage Boy

Richard Fahey has his two-year-olds running well, and She’s A Gambler looks interesting with plenty of speed in her pedigree. She could go close along with Pinpoint, who looked as if he would benefit from the experience when seventh on debut at Goodwood. However, Alice Haynes has a good record with her juveniles and a chance is taken on her Sioux Nation filly ARIZONA DESERT, who is bred to be a sprinter

WIN: ARIZONA DESERT

RACE THREE

DANGER: She’s A Gambler

Tobetso could prove popular with the William Haggas yard in good form but he hasn’t been seen since coming home fourth at Chepstow last September, and has been gelded since. With that in mind, FAKHRA might have the edge after her debut second earlier in the month, where she was beaten less than a length despite a slow start. The daughter of Zoustar should only improve for that experience, while Viscountess Renard is a newcomer to note.

WIN: FAKHRA

Race Four

DANGER: Tobetso

WAR CHANT appeals as a likely type to cope with a 6lb penalty imposed for a facile success over an extended mile at Nottingham nine days ago The gelding made all that day and still looks to have plenty of potential. Na Scoitear may find improvement in first-time blinkers, while Annalee Lass is another considered off just 2lb higher than last month’s Ripon success.

WIN: WAR CHANT

Race Five

DANGER: Na Scoitear

BELTANE made a pleasing start for Michael Appleby when a very close third at Beverley 13 days ago and he looks a solid option, despite having to shoulder 2lb more. He was rated higher earlier in his career, so looks very capable of another bold effort on these terms. The class-dropping Starshiba is feared most, although Ventura Rascal is dangerous to rule out given that he won a claiming handicap off this mark last summer

WIN: BELTANE

Race Six

DANGER: Starshiba

RAGOSINA didn’t get a clear run last time at Pontefract after a slow start and she did well to go under by just a length in the circumstances. This small field may help and if she can repeat that effort, she could win for the first time. Recent Nottingham runner-up Angels Landing is an obvious rival but top-weight won’t help her cause, while Purnika tries a hood on her first start in handicap company and could surprise a few.

WIN: RAGOSINA

Race Seven

DANGER: Angels Landing

Azeezan appeals on his handicap debut from a very workable mark, while Nibras Rainbow holds a solid chance of at least making the frame based on his nose second at Lingfield latest. However, PARR FIRE has been cut some slack by the handicapper and could provide a bit of value now she tries a longer trip Shot Of Love is closely matched with the selection and is feared most in first-time blinkers.

WIN: PARR FIRE

DANGER: Shot Of Love

South Dakota Sioux gave Mark Winn a great start to the evenings proceedings as he kept on well to take our opener He had dwelt leaving the stalls, but made-up ground stylishly to score with a degree of authority Tantalus had been a runner-up last time out on a career low mark but couldn’t find that extra bit of improvement to go one better. Our second race was over a mile further and went the way of Mirrie Dancers for North Yorkshire based Roger Fell. His five-year-old had been prominent under Jason Hart and was pushed along to lead approaching the three-furlong marker. Coming inside the two he quickened away from his rivals to win comfortably by a length and a half. It was his first run on the turf since February, but he had clearly been primed for this race by his new trainer, who took advantage of falling handicap mark. Our second sprint saw Passionately keep on well to just deny Hot Front and Daniel Tudhope There are few better in a sprint that Jason Hart, who once again showed his skill over the minimum. Passionately had shown fair form on her debut in France, finishing behind a horse who had finished runner-up in a Listed event at Chan-tilly. She shaped as though she’ll get further in time and Amy Murphy could have another useful filly on her hands. Sophia’s Starlight made it two wins from three starts in our feature race of the day under Oliver Stammers. Sent off the 9/4 favourite, Grant Tuer’s daughter of Hunter’s Light took a keen hold in the early stages but kept enough in the tank to make all. She didn’t see another rival and won a shade cosier than the ¾ length winning margin suggested.

Finest Leader wasn’t the most fluent into stride for Harry & Roger Charlton but showed marked improvement to head Blue Yonder on the line. The gelding clearly benefited from the application of first time cheekpieces and a return to a quicker surface.

Our penultimate race saw the close finishes continue as Red Astaire pipped Bayraat to the post. In winning, he ended a 14-run losing streak and shouldn’t get too big a rise by the handicapper. Bayraat did have the run of the race but was unable to capitalise from his handy position. There will be a race for him down the line.

Jenever gave punters a win in the lucky last as Jenever cleared away readily to win by two lengths under Ben Sanderson. Jessica Macey’s four-year-old was already 2lb well in and looks as though she could have at least 5 or 6lb in hand. He has improved steadily this year and could well make it back-to-back wins on his next start.

Tote vs Starting Price? We’ll pay whichever is better on win bets!

RACE DESCRIPTION Our opener is a two mile handicap race for four-year-olds and upwards which have been rated from 46 to 60 Like most handicaps on the flat this race is also open to horses that are rated below that particular band. However, all handicaps stipulate a minimum weight and no runner can carry less than that, irrespective of how low their rating is. This is often described as ‘running from out of the handicap’ and is considered a disadvantage.

PLAY SMARTER

TARBAT NESS extended his sequence of placed efforts to 3 at Carlisle earlier this month and this looks a good opportunity for John Berry’s 4-y-o to finally get off the mark. We’ll Go Again appeared to finish with more in the tank at Cartmel just under 2 weeks ago so he may emerge as the main danger back in this sphere, with Funky Town Pinkie and Burnage Boy taken to fight out third spot.

RACE DESCRIPTION This race is a five and a half furlong maiden stakes for two-year-olds. Maiden races provide a starting point for young horses that are yet to record a victory and most will be very lightly-raced or be making their racecourse debuts. Previous experience can count for a lot when searching for the winner but well-bred or precocious juveniles are more than capable of landing the prize at the first time of asking.

RACE DESCRIPTION This contest is a Novice Stakes that is run over a distance of seven furlongs. There are a variety of reasons why the three-year-olds in this race are still light on experience. 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

DECLARED RUNNERS 12

2022: KIND GESTURE 3 8 13 David Egan 4-6 (Roger Varian) 11 ran Running for the first time since Gelding No 5, 6, 7, 9.

Stewards Note:

TOBETSO: Following its run on 8/9/2022 it was reported that the horse lost its left-fore shoe.

Probable S.P’s: 11-10 Fakhra (IRE), 10-1 Tobetso (IRE), Viscountess Renard (IRE), 14-1 Final Credit (IRE), Minneapolis Sound (IRE), 16-1 Chico Dulce (GB), 18-1 Lucky Protector (IRE), Rampant (GB), 22-1 My Boy Benji (GB), 50-1 Wowshesomthingelse (IRE), 66-1 Milky Teal (GB), Kovu (GB)

FAKHRA shaped with abundant promise on debut when finishing a running-on second at Chepstow earlier this month, so Richard Hannon’s filly is fancied to go a place better with improvement on the cards. Tobetso didn’t offer a great deal on both outings as a 2-y-o but he’s in top hands and he could be the one to give the selection most to think about. Newcomer Viscountess Renard and Final Credit can do battle for third place.
