107

11-4

16/1 9/1 16/1

Placed twice in the spring before finishing fourth beaten 11 lengths at Kelso most recently in a novice hurdle. Returns off a break and handles good to soft; should find extra distance of benefit as he develops, with a midfield effort the realistic expectation here.

AI verdict

Rated just 98 with a 7P334- form record and sent off 9/1 in the market, Bogha Baiste lacks the profile to inspire confidence.

2/1 2/1 32/17

Back after nearly four months away, having finished a 4.5-length third at Sedgefield on his last outing. A useful Flat performer who likes to race prominently over hurdles; first-time cheekpieces and better ground could help him show more consistent form on his return.

AI verdict

Rated 104 with solid 9/4 market support, Liberty Coach's inconsistent 036P3- form limits confidence despite fair weight of 11-4.

50/1 66/1 40/1

Off the track for over four months after a series of pulled-up efforts, including at Ayr most recently in a novice hurdle. Has much still to find at this level, though acts on good ground and returns with a break behind him.

AI verdict

100/1 odds and a form string of /4PPP- signal a horse with little winning chance despite carrying 11-4.

Travelled smoothly at the front last time at this track, going down by just a head in a handicap hurdle. Consistent and suited to this trip; first-time tongue-tie applied, though yet to get off the mark despite clear ability.

AI verdict

Scriabin's mid-range Saturday Rating of 106, inconsistent form (523-42), and 10/3 odds suggest a competitive but unreliable contender at 11-4.

13/2 11/4 13/2

Has a Flat success to his name and made a solid start over hurdles, finishing third 15 lengths back at Uttoxeter on debut. Good ground suits; more is expected with that run in the bank and our figures make him the one to beat.

AI verdict

Strong Saturday Rating of 148 combined with competitive 10/3 odds and solid third-place form justify four stars.

Struggled in a maiden on his latest start and holds little in the way of credentials for this grade; returning after a lengthy absence adds to the uncertainty. Trainer in good form is about the best that can be said; much to prove.

AI verdict

Long odds of 16/1 and unknown form leave Moon Reign's 135 Saturday Rating unsubstantiated by market confidence.

Showed decent form in Ireland before an unplaced effort on his most recent outing at Kilbeggan. Makes his stable debut here, which brings uncertainty; acts on soft and better may be expected if he adjusts to new surroundings.

AI verdict

Poor form (6F55-0) and 11/1 odds signal market skepticism, with a Saturday Rating of 96 failing to inspire confidence.

66/1 FCST 50/1

Landed a bumper success but has struggled to build on that over hurdles, no better than fourth in recent starts. Returns off a break; acts on good ground at 2m and needs to find more if she is to get involved.

AI verdict

100/1 odds and a weak form line of 40606- signal minimal winning prospects despite a 125 Saturday Rating.

Shaped with promise on debut when fourth beaten eight lengths at Clonmel in a maiden hurdle, and that form has since been given added substance. She should progress further with a strong yard behind her; acts on good ground and handles this trip.

AI verdict

Mid-range Saturday Rating of 153, 4/1 odds, and uninspiring form figures of 64 limit confidence despite a competitive 10-7 weight.

250/1 125/1 200/1

Has pulled up in both her starts to date and given no real indication of ability in this grade. Returning off a break with first-time tongue-tie applied; everything still to show and ranks last on our figures.

AI verdict

Massive 150/1 odds and a dismal P-P form record make Quinnfinity a 124-rated longshot carrying 10-7 with no market confidence.

2/1 18/13 32/17

Back-to-back winner who took a handicap hurdle at Ludlow last time by two lengths, returning after a short break. Gone up 7lb for that effort but effective at 2m on a sound surface and could continue to progress on summer ground; a clear threat.

AI verdict

Carries top weight of 12-0 despite a Saturday Rating of 111, with recent form showing inconsistency before a latest win at 11/8.

Beaten 18 lengths when fourth at this track last time, though she has been successful here and clearly handles the course. Still 4lb above her last winning mark; handles 2m on a sound surface and can go close if back to her best.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-7 with patchy form (1F75-4) and a Saturday Rating of 99 limits Pure Gold's appeal at 4/1.

Third here 25 days ago, beaten just over four lengths in a handicap hurdle — a reliable campaigner who clearly handles this track and distance. First-time blinkers for a trainer in good form; effective on both soft and good ground and heads our ratings.

AI verdict

Carries top weight of 11-6 with a modest Saturday Rating of 100 and inconsistent form of 3549-3 limits confidence despite fair 7/2 odds.

4/1 9/2 7/2

Unable to sustain the gallop here last time but stayed on to finish, still beaten without landing a blow in a handicap hurdle. Shows a consistent record at this track over 2m on good ground; needs to find more but holds realistic claims if she improves on latest.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 98 and patchy form (3546-5) at 11-4 weight limit the case for Just Dottie at 9/2.

Lost her place when the pace lifted here last time, comfortably held on her second run after a wind operation. Could do better given a more forward ride; first-time tongue-tie applied, though recent figures put her up against it.

AI verdict

Rated just 86 with poor form (5700-6) and unfancied at 10/1, Tigress Lilly offers little appeal carrying 10-8.

Well beaten at Hexham last time on a trip that appeared too short, a horse rated reasonably on older Irish form but labelled unreliable. Acts on soft and good and handles this distance but hard to trust with any confidence.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 72, weak form (4603-6), and 20/1 odds indicate minimal market confidence and poor recent consistency.

9/2 9/2 4/1

Familiar with the track and handles the trip and going, but has been well below his best in recent starts, beaten 21 lengths when fourth here last time. First-time cheekpieces could be the prompt for a revival; heads the ratings.

AI verdict

Wasdell Dundalk's poor form (P84-64), high weight of 12-1, and weak Saturday Rating of 101 at 5/1 justify just 2 stars.

Has shown fair form over hurdles with second-place finishes in recent starts and now gets his first crack at a handicap over fences for a capable yard. First-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces added; effective between 2m and 2m4f with cut and with more to offer at this level.

AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 106 and fair 7/4 odds are offset by top weight 11-12 and inconsistent form showing 225-85.

Third 16 lengths adrift at Hexham on his most recent outing, he has run at this course and distance before and knows the track. The sound surface suits and first-time cheekpieces could sharpen focus, though his inconsistent record makes him a risk.

AI verdict

Rated 99 with solid 4/1 market support, Moodofthemoment's mixed form of 1P-643 and top weight 11-11 limit confidence.

Never got into contention and finished 13 lengths back in third at this track last time, needing to bounce back from that effort. Trainer in good form and first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces applied; best at 2m but handles this trip on a sound surface.

AI verdict

Rated 102 with inconsistent form (448-43) and carrying 11-10 at 4/1 suggests mid-tier potential without market confidence.

Shaped as if the shorter trip was against him in a handicap hurdle here last time, and the step back up in distance looks vital. Winless of late and last on our figures, though handles the going and extra yardage could unlock more.

AI verdict

Outsider odds of 12/1, poor recent form of 874-57, and a Saturday Rating of 90 suggest limited winning prospects here.

Faded and was never within striking distance in a handicap hurdle last time out; without a win in recent starts. Making his chasing debut on a fair Irish-form mark; handles this distance and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour.

AI verdict

Rated 92 with poor form (8050-6) and returning 13/2 in the market, Button Rock shows mid-tier potential at 10-11.

Sean Bowen 24%

Olly Murphy 23%

12-0

10/3 11/4 10/3

Without a win in his last five starts, he has looked in need of a longer trip in recent outings; makes his handicap debut wearing a tongue-tie for the first time, and this step up in distance on ground he handles gives him a genuine chance of improvement.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a modest Saturday Rating of 90 and uninspiring form figures of 344-88 limits confidence despite fair odds.

SP FCST 12/1

Rates third on our figures and handles both today's trip and going, returning from a break fitted with cheekpieces for the first time; a prolonged run of disappointing efforts and a mark that has been working against him are the main concerns.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-12 with a weak form of 956P7- and a low Saturday Rating of 75 at 14/1 makes Fourofakind a market outsider with little appeal.

Top-rated here and generally reliable in her recent starts, she came up second last time on a shorter trip than she prefers; steps back up to a distance she handles in first-time cheekpieces, and her consistent profile makes her the one they all have to beat.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-12 with a modest Saturday Rating of 85, inconsistent form of 3P3-42, and unfancied at 11/1, Bayonetta presents minimal winning appeal.

Won here off a lower mark at the penultimate start and ran creditably when third last time at the same official rating as today; in form and handles this trip and going, making him a fair each-way prospect at a mark that looks workable.

AI verdict

Solid Saturday Rating of 92 and consistent form (75-313) are offset by a demanding 11-9 weight at 5/1.

Joshua Thompson(5) 12%

David Thompson 8%

12/1 25/1 10/1

Landed this race last year and ran fifth on his return 11 days ago; the step up in trip looks the key angle — he was comfortably held last time in a race that didn't play to his strengths — and first-time cheekpieces could help him travel better.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 56, 28/1 odds, and inconsistent form of 1P6-45 make Top Flight Century a deeply unattractive handicap proposition.

Danny McMenamin 15%

10-13

17/2 11/2 17/2

Twice unplaced and sixth in his three most recent starts, yet he rates second on our figures; the case rests on this handicap debut over a longer trip with first-time cheekpieces, which fits his profile as a likely improver once the step up in distance is granted.

AI verdict

Lenko's mid-range Saturday Rating of 85 and poor form of 60-0 limit confidence despite fair 11/2 odds and manageable 10-13 weight.

Nathan Moscrop 9%

Susan Corbett 10%

17/2 10/1 8/1

Holds some form claims over this trip and going, and was travelling well before fading in the closing stages last time; the combination of tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time is a potential plus, but his ranking outside the top eight makes him harder to recommend.

AI verdict

Fairly Fulling's poor form (441-P4), low Saturday Rating of 72, and 11/1 odds suggest limited market confidence at 10-13.

Back to something like his best when runner-up here last time off a 3lb lower mark, and rates fourth on our figures; wears tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time and should be suited by the step up in distance, though his inconsistent record is the main reservation.

AI verdict

Rated 80 with inconsistent form (539-72) and carrying 10-10 at 13/2, King Kodiak lacks the market confidence to justify more than 3 stars.

Placed in each of his last two completions and shaped creditably at Hexham on his most recent outing from a prominent position; yet to win in his last six starts but his figures look fair and he is back running to something like his best.

AI verdict

Consistent form figures of 3232U2 and a Saturday Rating of 83 at 9/2 suggest solid but not exceptional winning prospects under 10-10.

Failed to see out the trip here last time and her recent record is generally inconsistent; she has shown ability at shorter distances on going that suits, and a first-time hood may help, but she faces a stiff task on these figures.

AI verdict

Outsider odds of 25/1, poor form showing P50-08, and a low Saturday Rating of 55 combine to make Breaking Ground an unlikely contender.

AI verdict

Sent off at 18/1 with a Saturday Rating of just 66 and poor form figures of /2380-, Dreamings Free lacks the market confidence to compete.

Landed a short-head success at this venue two starts ago and remains consistent, though jumping errors cost him when runner-up last time off the same mark as today. Blinkers and tongue-tie applied; effective over 3m on a sound surface and the stiff test suits.

AI verdict

Solid form of 221-12 and a competitive 9/4 price are offset by a hefty 12-0 weight and a Saturday Rating of 107 limiting upside.

Back-to-back successes include taking a handicap by 5½ lengths at Market Rasen most recently, and his mark still looks lenient on his best earlier form. First-time cheekpieces applied; stamina over this longer trip is the main doubt, and his trainer's recent results have been modest.

Solid 101 Saturday Rating and competitive 2/1 odds are offset by top weight of 11-6 and inconsistent 5/7-11 form.

Went too hard too soon here last time in a handicap hurdle and paid the price, finishing well beaten. His French form hints at better ability on a fair mark; first-time tongue-tie fitted and more tactical restraint in running could help.

AI verdict

Burgundy Man's dismal form (156-P9), 14/1 odds, and low Saturday Rating of 69 under 10-6 weight justify just 1/5 stars.

Jumping and travelling were both problems at Cartmel last time, well beaten in a handicap hurdle. Switching to fences, where significant improvement is needed; acts around 2m on good to soft and first-time tongue-tie is the main positive.

AI verdict

Defying Gravity's mid-tier Saturday Rating of 82 and inconsistent form reading 53-2U8 justify 3/5 stars despite a manageable 10-3 weight at 7/1.

Dropped out and stayed on to finish third 13 lengths back at Uttoxeter last time on a surface faster than he ideally wants. A genuine stayer over 3m+ and fairly treated on his hurdle form; first-time cheekpieces applied, though softer conditions would suit better.

AI verdict

Twp Stori's Saturday Rating of 80 and consistent form figures of B56-33 at 7/1 suggest fair each-way claims without dominating the market.

22/1 18/1 22/1

Won by over three lengths at Sedgefield in April off a 2lb lower mark, but his chasing career has stalled since, with errors blighting his last two starts; handles this trip and going, and first-time cheekpieces may help him settle and complete, making midfield a realistic aim.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 12-0 with a Saturday Rating of 63, poor form of 71-PUP, and dismissed by the market at 22/1, Maggies Boy offers minimal winning prospects.

Briefly looked a threat at Hexham last time before fading out of contention; rates fourth on our figures, is down in the weights from recent runs, and wears tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time — but needs a more sustained effort than he has produced recently.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 78, poor form of 080-48, and 11/1 odds signal minimal winning prospects under 11-11.

Has a win and a place from her recent starts, but was held up after going to the front too early at Perth last time; first-time cheekpieces may encourage a more patient ride, though her inconsistent profile remains a concern.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight of 11-10 with a modest Saturday Rating of 83 and inconsistent form (13P-45) limits Creadan Grace's appeal at 11/2.

Landed this contest last year and handles the going well, but was never competitive and faded badly when held last time at this course; generally consistent at this level and ideally wants even further than today's trip, though he has been without a win in his last five starts.

AI verdict

Dalileo's poor form (554-73), low Saturday Rating of 77, and 10/1 odds indicate little market confidence despite carrying 11-5.

9/4

Won here by four lengths off a 5lb lower mark at the penultimate start and rates second on our figures; shaped to her ability last time carrying the same official mark as today, and wears tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time — she may be even better suited going further.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight 11-1 with inconsistent form 608-13 and a Saturday Rating of 90 limits confidence despite fair 9/4 odds.

11/1 FCST 10/1

Useful form in points and bumpers has not transferred to hurdles; his performances in this sphere have been consistently disappointing and he dropped out badly when stepped up in trip on handicap debut, though his trainer is in good form and he handles today's going.

AI verdict

A Saturday Rating of 70, poor form (4696-6), and 12/1 odds signal a horse the market has largely dismissed.

Back to his best when taking a handicap here by three and a half lengths last time off a 5lb lower mark, and he clearly acts well at this course; fitted with tongue-tie and cheekpieces for the first time and off a short break, though his inconsistent record is the main reservation.

AI verdict

Carrying top weight 10-10 with inconsistent form 47/8-1, Prince Nino's 84 Saturday Rating and 4/1 odds suggest mid-tier claims.

6/1 10/1 5/1

Tried to dominate at Hexham last time but made jumping errors and was reeled in, beaten six and a half lengths; handles this trip and going as a strong stayer, and first-time tongue-tie and cheekpieces may encourage a more settled approach, though she has been without a win in her recent starts.

AI verdict

Rated just 71 with weak 43P-75 form and dismissed at 10/1 in the market, Myfavouritesister offers little appeal.

10-2

66/1 66/1 50/1

Has been pulled up three times in his last four starts over hurdles and has not yet struck upon conditions to show his best in this sphere; returns after 206 days off with a first-time hood and is difficult to recommend on these figures as the lowest-rated in the field.

AI verdict

An 80/1 outsider with a Saturday Rating of just 45, carrying 10-2 and showing a dismal PP/7P- form string.
