Angel Steps silks
Angel Steps
Age 2 · 9-2

125
2
9-2
100/1 50/1 66/1
Beaten 7 lengths on debut at Wetherby, Angel Steps has plenty to prove in another novice company and ranks last on our figures. The trainer is firing at just 4% over the last fortnight, so there is little in the formbook to encourage.
AI verdict

An 80/1 outsider with a single eighth-place finish, Angel Steps' weak form and Saturday Rating of 125 justify just 2 stars.

Calef silks
Calef

9-2
10/1 FCST 7/1
Sprint-bred and stepping forward from a fourth at Ripon last time — where a positive ride showed encouragement — Calef looks capable of better yet to score, and Catterick's sharp track could bring more out of her. The worry is she remains winless and must convert that promise.
AI verdict

Calef's strong Saturday Rating of 148 and solid 44 form justify 4 stars despite 8/1 odds suggesting market underestimation.

Ma Fille De Reve

9-2
100/1 40/1 100/1
Pulled too hard and beaten nine lengths on debut at Wetherby, Ma Fille De Reve showed raw speed in her pedigree but must settle much more readily to have a say; hard to fancy until she proves she can control her exuberance.
AI verdict

A single sixth-place form figure combined with 50/1 odds signals a market-ignored runner with little evidence of winning potential.

Minzelle silks

9-2
5/6 7/4 2/3
Third on debut at Haydock after going too hard early and forcing the pace for the closers, Minzelle is a speed-pedigree filly who should benefit from that experience and come into her own dropped to 5f. The trainer's 28% strike rate in recent weeks adds further confidence, though she is yet to score.
AI verdict

Minzelle's strong Saturday Rating of 158 and competitive 11/8 odds support her 4/5 stars despite a single form figure of 3.

Miss Tuite silks

9-2
11/1 11/1 8/1
Showed real ability when second on debut before reverting sharply at Nottingham last time, Miss Tuite clearly has the pace for 5f on good ground and is worth forgiving that reversal — the key risk is whether she can reproduce the promise of her opening outing.
AI verdict

Her form figures of 28 and 12/1 odds suggest mid-tier potential, limiting her Saturday Rating of 142 to a modest 3-star assessment.

Roots In Touche silks

9-2
2/1 Evs 31/19
Beaten only a length and a quarter when runner-up at Beverley on her only start, Roots In Touche showed good early zip and ought to take a forward step with that experience under her belt. She handles today's distance and going and is a clear danger yet to score.
AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 157 combined with competitive 11/8 odds and a placed form figure justify the 4/5 star rating.

7
Sable Noir silks
Sable Noir

9-2
22/1 10/1 18/1
A Blackbeard filly foaled in late March and a half-sister to 5f performer Merpati Sejoli, Sable Noir is bred to be quick and the yard has a strong record with first-timers — betting market signals from the wide draw will be worth monitoring.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 139 shows solid potential, but 14/1 odds and unknown form limit confidence to a mid-tier three stars.

8
Warby silks
Warby

9-2
33/1 12/1 28/1
By high-class sprinter Ardad and a half-sister to smart 5f performer Society Kiss, Warby fetched 62,000 guineas as a yearling and is trained by a top Catterick handler — betting moves on debut will be the tell.
AI verdict

Warby's moderate Saturday Rating of 139 and 14/1 odds suggest market skepticism despite a competitive 9-2 weight assignment.

9-9
5/2 3/1 5/2
Placed at Carlisle and Ripon in recent starts and effective at 5f on any going, Wen Moon ran to form when beaten two lengths off this exact mark at Ripon last time and looks set to run her race again from the same weight.
AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 76 and fair 10/3 odds suit, but inconsistent form of 51-033 limits confidence.

Storm Call silks
Storm Call
Age 4 · 9-9
4418-5

9-9
10/1
Off the track for three months and below par when last seen fifth at Wolverhampton, Storm Call is an inconsistent type who is fitted with first-time headgear today — effective at 5-6f on a sound surface but needs to show his best after a lengthy break.
AI verdict

Rated just 65 with weak 4418-5 form and unfancied at 11/1, Storm Call lacks the market confidence or recent results to merit more.

9-8
7/1 11/4 7/1
Back after a 128-day absence and ranked bottom on our figures, Polka benefited from a stiff track when landing a maiden at Newcastle last time and her tendency to pull hard makes her unpredictable returning to handicap company despite that confidence-boosting success.
AI verdict

Polka's mid-range Saturday Rating of 74 and inconsistent form figures of 3-81 justify a moderate 3-star rating at 10/3.

Tees Aggregates silks
Tees Aggregates

9-7
7/2 10/3 7/2
Consistent at 5f on good to soft and quick ground and operating at just 1lb above her last winning mark, Tees Aggregates arrives with a trainer in strong form and races from a familiar draw — winless in recent starts but the profile and current mark both point to a big run.
AI verdict

Consistent recent form of 594533 and competitive 7/2 odds justify mid-tier appeal, but 9-7 weight and Saturday Rating of 72 limit winning prospects.

Our Absent Friends

9-3
15/2 11/2 15/2
Generally consistent, Our Absent Friends went a touch too freely and was beaten three and a quarter lengths off a mark 2lb higher than today's at Ripon last time — settle better here and she is a live danger over this distance on any going, yet to score.
AI verdict

Mid-range Saturday Rating of 66 and inconsistent form (834206) at 13/2 suggest a fair each-way chance without inspiring confidence.

Woodhay Whisper

9-0
16/1 18/1 16/1
First-time hood on today and back on a winning mark, Woodhay Whisper probably needed the run at Thirsk last time when beaten four and a half lengths — but recent efforts have been poor and a sharper performance is required to get back in contention.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-0 at 22/1 with a Saturday Rating of just 43 and dismal recent form of 187497 makes Woodhay Whisper unbackable.

8-12
11/4 9/2 5/2
Showing signs of better of late and effective at 5f on today's going, Albegone has a top Catterick trainer handling the booking — yet to score in recent starts but the fresh angle of first-time blinkers and a fair mark make him a genuine each-way player.
AI verdict

Midfield Saturday Rating of 70, inconsistent form (805237), and 8-12 weight suggest a competitive but unremarkable 10/3 chance.

9-9
5/2 7/2 2/1
Consistent without threatening over 6-7f, Thehunnebelllegacy was beaten only three lengths off a higher mark back here last time and is respected back down in trip — though our figures leave him a fair bit to find to take a hand.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 60 and uninspiring form of 4634-5 limit confidence despite fair 9/2 odds and manageable 9-9 weight.

Elashgar

9-9
17/2 7/1 17/2
A likeable sort who landed a success over 6f on the all-weather earlier this term and was usually consistent prior to that, Elashgar was out of sorts on turf at Nottingham last time — the question is whether he brings his all-weather form across to today's going.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 61 and inconsistent form of -83120 limits Elashgar's prospects at 13/2.

Caught the eye finishing strongly from a hopeless position on her handicap debut at Brighton — where first-time headgear was worn and she was given too much to do — Rivera Queen looks on a generous mark based on that debut evidence and a trainer in form strengthens the case, yet to score.
AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 55 and inconsistent form (3-004) at 9-8 weight make 7/1 odds reflect limited winning prospects.

9-8
18/1 12/1 18/1
Blocked out of things from the off and never in contention when comfortably held back here last time, Saxon Grace is down to a competitive mark but has yet to score in recent starts and looks an exposed maiden — first-time cheekpieces offer a modest angle for improvement.
AI verdict

Saxon Grace's 45 Saturday Rating, 14/1 odds, and poor 0-6746 form combine to make this 9-8 weighted runner a weak market outsider.

9-6
33/1 22/1 28/1
Down the field at Newcastle last time out and out of the frame in each of his last two starts, Our Hero Matty is inconsistent and ranks last on our figures — form goes in and out and a sizeable revival is needed.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 32, poor form of 377-00, and 28/1 odds signal minimal winning chances.

9-5
9/4 7/4 32/17
Beaten only three lengths off this mark at Redcar when racing too keenly at the head of affairs under first-time blinkers, Long Shot drops back in trip today with first-time cheekpieces — better efforts over 6-7f and a top Catterick trainer make him a genuine threat, winless in recent starts notwithstanding.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 63 and patchy form (6-3824) at 9-5 weight justify a cautious mid-tier market assessment at 2/1.

7

9-4
3/1 2/1 3/1
Three successive runner-up finishes including off this very mark at Carlisle last time — beaten only three quarters of a length — show Battenburg Belle is in consistent form at 6f on today's going; a cold trainer strike rate is the one reservation for a mare who keeps finding one too good.
AI verdict

Consistent form of 386222 and competitive 9/4 odds are offset by a modest Saturday Rating of 62 and high weight.

10-2
11/4 5/2 11/4
Finished third beaten two and a quarter lengths off 74 last time despite being given too much to do, Diamont Katie landed a wide-margin success at Pontefract three starts back following a wind operation and remains competitive at 6-7f on today's ground — 1lb higher here but in the mix.
AI verdict

Inconsistent form (585123) and a hefty 10-2 weight limit her appeal despite fair 11/4 odds and a Saturday Rating of 78.

14/1 10/1 14/1
Landed a success off a lower mark at Southwell penultimate start but below form in eighth off 74 last time, Alessia Fernanda is in and out of form at 7-9f on most going — first-time tongue-tie adds an unknown dimension and she may have more to offer if it helps her settle.
AI verdict

Rated just 67 on Saturday with weak 847-18 form and dismissed at 11/1 by the market, Alessia Fernanda offers little appeal.

Keen early and dropping away when beaten more than eight lengths at Carlisle last time, Ziggy's Queen is better than that effort suggests and is effective at 6f on most going — the mark looks a shade high until she proves she can keep the lid on her enthusiasm.
AI verdict

Ziggy's Queen carries top weight of 10-1 with a modest Saturday Rating of 63, poor recent form showing a "9" finish, and drifting 17/2 odds.

9/1 8/1 17/2
Below form in each of her last four starts and beaten nine lengths at Beverley last time, In A Hurry is yet to score in recent starts and is hard to support at present — a first-time tongue-tie is fitted today and better trips of 7f on a sound surface are in her favour if the headgear helps.
AI verdict

Poor recent form (299-89) and a Saturday Rating of just 63 make 9/1 odds unappealing at 9-9 weight.

Back-to-back placed finishes including a half-length second off a mark 3lb higher than today's at Musselburgh put Homestrait right in the picture, effective at 6-7f on today's going — yet to score but first-time cheekpieces could sharpen her further and she is a clear danger.
AI verdict

Form showing consistent placings but no win, rated 81 carrying 9-4 at 11/4, suggests mid-tier prospects.

4/1 FCST 7/2
Landed two wins in recent starts, including over course and distance, before a flat effort last time when pushed into the lead too soon, Velvet Rhythm is effective at 6-7f on a sound surface and returns at the same mark — that latest blot can be forgiven with a more patient ride.
AI verdict

Velvet Rhythm's mixed form (3-1148) and 9-1 weight temper confidence despite a competitive 83 Saturday Rating at 4/1.

Ran close to her best at Musselburgh last time — where she finished only a length and a half behind the leaders off a mark just 1lb lower — Yorkshire Queen is lightly exposed at 7f and capable of further progress; inconsistent this term but that latest effort confirmed she retains ability, yet to score.
AI verdict

Yorkshire Queen's mid-range Saturday Rating of 70, moderate 11/2 odds, and inconsistent form of 24-493 suggest a capable but unreliable contender.

Effective over staying trips on most ground, Arrange briefly threatened before fading into sixth at Thirsk last time and may not be what she was — but with a much-reduced mark in a small field, a return to better form cannot be ruled out.
AI verdict

Rated 72 with patchy form of 603-06 and carrying 9-9, Arrange's 5/2 odds suggest market respect despite inconsistency.

Progressive over staying trips, Treasure Islands landed a success off a lower mark earlier in recent starts and has run creditably in defeat since, finishing third off this very mark in a stronger race last time. Unexposed at staying distances and with a top record at this course, the opportunity looks well timed.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-9 with a modest Saturday Rating of 62, Treasure Islands' inconsistent form of -48123 undermines confidence despite even-money odds.

Looked the likely winner at Thirsk last time before being worn down close home, beaten only three quarters of a length off a mark 1lb lower than today's, Valley Of Flowers is a consistent stayer on any going — enthusiasm questions remain but the ability to go very close is clearly there.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 75 and uninspiring form figures of 43-672 limit confidence despite fair 9/4 odds.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 9-4 with a Saturday Rating of 46, poor form of 6467-0, and 33/1 odds reflect minimal market confidence.

12/1 4/1 12/1
Back to form when landing a classified event at Wolverhampton by three lengths last time, Sanditon is effective at 7f on a sound surface and has to be respected returned to handicap company — the test is whether that revival holds up against regular handicappers.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight 9-9 with a Saturday Rating of just 58 and inconsistent form of 669651 at 5/1 limits confidence.

4/1 5/1 4/1
A course-and-distance winner off a higher mark who had been running back into form until pulling hard and dropping away tamely at Beverley last time, Emerald Army is effective at 6-7f on today's going — a cold trainer at 4% and a wide draw are added concerns for a winless run.
AI verdict

Rated just 62 with uninspiring form of -54228 and carrying 9-9, Emerald Army lacks the market confidence at 11/2 to warrant support.

Caught in traffic at a key point when beaten a length off this very mark at Wetherby last time, Captain Cess is unexposed at 7f and has handled today's going — a clear run here could make all the difference for a horse who retains latent ability, yet to score.
AI verdict

Carrying top weight 9-9 with a Saturday Rating of 62 and inconsistent form 406-23 limits confidence despite fair 11/4 odds.

Landed a neck success at Hamilton earlier in recent starts and ran to form when fourth off a mark 1lb higher last time, Classy Clarets is consistent at 5-7f on a sound surface — the mark looks a shade stiff but first-time headgear could provide a sharpening effect.
AI verdict

Saturday Rating of 63 and consistent form (331324) at 5/1 odds offer fair each-way value despite carrying 9-9.

Back on song when third beaten only half a length off this exact mark last time, staying the longer trip well, War Memorial landed a neck success at Musselburgh three starts back and is generally in good form — effective at 7f and could handle the mile if the going suits.
AI verdict

Moderate Saturday Rating of 57 and inconsistent form (072173) at 9-7 weight justify a cautious 3-star mid-market 4/1 assessment.

In good form prior to being hampered and not picking up when it mattered at Carlisle last time, Rain Cap is effective at 6-7f and capable of going well when there is a proper pace to aim at — first-time visor is a fresh angle and the mark is fair, though yet to score in recent starts.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 48, weak recent form (4-0237), and 9/1 odds suggest the market holds little confidence in Rain Cap.

Below form when dropped in trip at Wolverhampton last time, Blue Jay Way has been in better form over 6-7f and is fitted with first-time cheekpieces for this return to a more suitable distance — inconsistent but not without ability on a workable mark.
AI verdict

Low Saturday Rating of 41, long odds of 14/1, and poor recent form of 18-749 combine to make Blue Jay Way an unlikely contender.

In poor form over recent starts and comfortably held at Musselburgh last time, Misemerald is effective at 7-8f on today's going but the stronger rivals in this field look to hold the edge, and she is yet to score.
AI verdict

Misemerald's weak 60-066 form, low Saturday Rating of 40, and 14/1 odds signal minimal market confidence.

Out of form over recent starts and below par back on turf at Redcar last time, Martin's Brig is effective at 7-8f and the first-time blinkers add a small wildcard — hard to make a case until the form shows signs of life.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 35, poor form figures of 8-9876, and 22/1 odds confirm Martin's Brig holds no realistic winning claims.

100/1 50/1 100/1
Down the field at Hamilton only two days ago and with largely poor form in recent starts, Wath Court ranks last on our figures by some distance — the combination of tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time today is a final roll of the dice.
AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 27, 66/1 odds, and form showing 900600 make Wath Court a non-contender in this market.
