Newmarket: David Milnes

Gustavo Fring (1.15 Southwell, nap)

The onetime 2,000 Guineas hope has had his sights lowered considerably in recent weeks and is expected to make it third time lucky on his first fibresand start. The son of Kodiac showed enough when second at Wolverhampton last time to Delilah Park.

Others to follow
Southwell: 11.45 Spinning Melody, 2.55 Ghassedah.
Chelmsford: 5.45 Hint Of Gret, 6.15 Artieshow, 6.45 Best Blue, 7.45 Thaqaffa.

Lambourn: James Burn

Casablanca Mix (1.05 Exeter, nap)

A capable mare who was being readied for a Listed race at Warwick that was abandoned last week, so should be primed to go close.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 5.45 Misu Pete, 6.45 Island Court, 7.15 Corked, 7.45 Choral Clan, 8.45 Pulsating.
Exeter: 12.35 Floral Bouquet.
Southwell: 11.45 Start Seven, 1.45 Montague.
Towcester: 12.25 The Bottom Bar, 1.55 Rather Be.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

Siruh Du Lac (1.35 Exeter, nap)

Showed plenty of promise as a juvenile hurdler and off the mark at the second attempt over fences. This is a well-regarded four-year-old who is expected to handle the 6lb rise and follow up.

Others to follow
Exeter: 12.35 Waiheke, 1.05 Shaama Grise, 2.05 Overtown Express, 2.40
Rockpoint, 3.15 Who's My Jockey, 3.45 Point N Shoot.
Towcester: 12.25 Awake At Midnight, 1.25 Midnight Magic, 1.55 War
Sound, 3.35 Pineapple Rush.

North: Colin Russell

Aleef (8.15 Chelmsford, nap)

On a good mark at present and having run his best race for a while when fourth over C&D last time is fancied to get back on the winning trail.

Others to follow
Chelmsford: 5.45 Twiggy, 6.15 The British Lion, 6.45 The Jungle Vip, 7.15 Dellaguista, 8.45 Captain Scooby.
Southwell: 11.45 Restive, 12.15 Little Pippin, 12.45 Breaking Free, 1.15 Excellent World, 1.45 Our Kid, 2.15 Lean On Pete, 2.50 Kommander Kirkup, 3.25 Pearl Acclaim.

Racing Post Ratings: Steve Mason

Night Of Sin (2.40 Exeter, nap)

A half-brother to Fox Norton, he looks well-treated on the pick of a couple of soft ground wins last season and should strip fitter for his Ascot reappearance.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Casablanca Mix (1.05 Exeter)

Opened her account over fences in fine style at Huntingdon a month ago and Nicky Henderson's mare can add to her tally.

Longshot: Ed Quigley

Max Do Brazil (2.40 Exeter)

Struggled lately, but the return of blinkers can help. Should handle the ground and remains unexposed off 117.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

It’s Two O Clock (4.30 Dundalk)

A good winner over today’s course and five furlong trip on his debut last month, the son of Raven’s Pass can follow up against only three rivals in this nursery. Pat Smullen’s mount gets the vote to confirm placings with Khwarizmi who finished runner-up to him before winning over the course and distance 20 days ago.
