Credit: Alan Crowhurst

Newmarket: David Milnes

Cracksman (3.00 York, nap)

John Gosden's colt looks to have thrived for a mid-season break and has been most impressive in his work on the Limekilns round gallop. The son of Frankel should like the galloping track and can get his had back in front.

Others to follow

York 2.25 James Garfield, 3.35 Ulysses, 4.15 Cartwright, 4.50 Green Fortune.

Bath 4.00 Light Of joy, 5.10 Hope Is High.

Kempton 6.15 Iconic Sunset, 6.45 The Lady Rules, 7.15 Phalaborwa, 7.45 Maziyoun, 8.15 High Command, 8.45 Double Spin.

Lambourn: James Burn

Oceane (4.15 York, nap)

Is 7lb higher than when winning this race last year, but Alan King's five-year-old should be on the scene if the ground remains quick, and connections are hopeful of a competitive effort in a first-time visor.

Others to follow

Bath 1.45 Field Of Vision, 2.15 Expecting, 4.35 Secret Agent, 5.40 Masterofdiscovery.

Kempton 7.45 Golden Wedding, 8.15 Fleeting Visit.

Worcester 6.30 McCools Gold, 7.30 Stonemadforspeed.

York 1.55 A Momentofmadness, 2.25 Jazeel, 3.00 Khalidi, 3.35 Decorated Knight, 4.15 Oceane, 4.50 Red Roman.

North: Colin Russell

Wells Farhh Go (2.25 York, nap)

Well-regarded colt who made an impressive winning debut when overcoming greenness to win over course and distance last month. Plenty of improvement to come and fancied to give another good account.

Others to follow

Bath 2.50 Sakhalin Star, 3.25 Spirit Of The Vale, 4.00 Satisfy, 435 The Nazca Lines, 5.40 Rinaria.

Carlisle 1.35 Poet's Pride, 2.05 Picture No Sound, 2.40 Yes You, 3.15 Geoff Potts, 3.50 Heir Of Excitement, 4.25 I'm Dapper Too, 4.55 Renfrew Street, 5.25 Racquet.

Kempton 7.15 Simply Me, 7.45 Georgian Bay, 8.15 Whitecliff Park.

Worcester 5.00 Aregra, 6.00 Sky Khan.

York 1.55 Orion's Bow, 415 Saigon City, 4.50 Demons Rock.

West Country: Andrew King

Nightingale Valley (7.15 Kempton, nap)

Has not had the best of luck in running the last twice when runner-up and she can make amends by going one better.

Others to follow

Bath 1.45 Silverrica, 2.50 Eugenic, 3.25 Green Or Black, 5.10 Penny Poet, 5.40 Nutini.

Worcester 5.30 Gabrial The Great, 6.00 Doubly Clever, 7.00 Poetic Lady, 7.30 Juste Pour Nous 8.00 Chantecler.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Dee Ex Bee (2.25 York)

Plenty to admire about his pillar-to-post debut success at Goodwood recently, particularly the time, and Mark Johnston's exciting colt can maintain his unblemished record.

Racing Post Ratings: Paul Curtis

Seamour (4.15 York, nap)

Has some solid efforts in top handicaps to his name over the past year. Today's race looks a little easier and he can get back to winning ways off a fair mark, with his burden further eased by a good value 5lb claim.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Oceane (4.15 York)

Won this race last year and, crucially, should get the fast ground he needs to be seen at his best. Could bounce back to form with visor applied.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Psychedelic Funk (4.45 Killarney)

The way the Ger Lyons-trained three-year-old won at his first attempt over a mile at Naas on his most recent start suggested he can progress again over the trip and he can prove the pick in today's Listed event. Well drawn in stall one, he can score under Colin Keane.
