ITV Racing tips: one key runner from each of the eight races on ITV4 on Saturday

1.35 Chester
Contact Company Handicap, 7½f

Lord Bertie bolted up by 12 lengths on his seasonal debut and steps into handicap company for the first time off an opening mark of 95. The William Haggas-trained three-year-old could be the class act of the 12-runner line-up which includes eight course winners.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Lord Bertie

2-2 in novices since running well behind Chaldean on debut; handicap debut here

1.50 Sandown
Virgin Bet Best Odds Daily Handicap, 7f

Tough Enough bids to follow up last month's course-and-distance success off a 4lb higher mark and looks more progressive than the other Sandown winners in the line-up – Idemnify and Lyndon B. Amber Island's best form had been on the all-weather but she could continue her improvement on the turf after scoring at Leicester last time.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Ernie's Valentine

Well treated on 7f turf form in May and June and Oisin Murphy a good booking; considered

2.05 Beverley
William Hill Silver Cup Handicap, 1m4f

Dancing In Paris and Fulfilled were both placed in Racing League handicaps last time while Aimeric was eighth at Royal Ascot, but will need to improve on his disappointing effort at Newmarket's July meeting. Stowell, who was third in the Group 2 Queen's Vase in 2021, makes his stable debut for Alan King.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Fulfilled

Solid in handicaps, progressive too and won twice in June; all turf runs on good to firm

Fulfilled14:05 Beverley

2.25 Sandown
Virgin Bet Atalanta Stakes (Group 3), 1m

Kieran Shoemark claims his first ride on John and Thady Gosden's Sandringham winner Coppice, who drops in grade after finishing fifth in the Group 1 Falmouth. Purplepay attempts to reverse the form with Listed Dick Hern Stakes winner Heredia, while Queen For You also has a bit to find with Lyric Fillies' Stakes winner Midnight Mile. Last year's winner Potapova defends her crown.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Heredia

Better than ever when easy winner of Haydock Listed race; open to further improvement

2.40 Beverley
William Hill Beverley Bullet Sprint Stakes (Listed), 5f

Tis Marvellous bids to win this race for a third year in a row with fellow course-and-distance winners Silky Wilkie and Elegant Erin among the Clive Cox-trained sprinter's rivals. Apollo One has been placed in big-field handicaps on his last four starts and tackles Listed company for the first time this season.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Apollo One

Better than ever of late, four fine runs in defeat in hot 6f handicaps; leading contender

3.00 Sandown
Virgin Bet Handicap, 1m2f

Dual Identity is rated 7lb higher than when scoring over this track and trip last July and Lord Protector, who won over course-and-distance off 4lb lower on his penultimate start, looks better treated. Lord Protector beat the reopposing Eagle's Way and Kitsune Power at Goodwood last time and represents Ralph Beckett, who also runs Baltic Voyage.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Gaassee

1m4f/1m6f in all of his eight handicaps but this drop back in trip is well worth a shot

3.20 Chester
Caa Stellar Chester Stakes (Listed), 1m6½f

Military Order was sent off the same price as 9-2 Derby winner Auguste Rodin but flopped in the Epsom Classic, finishing last of 14. The Godolphin-owned son of Frankel steps up in trip for his first start since and could add another Listed success to his Lingfield Derby Trial win. Beckett has won this race for the last two years and runs Lone Eagle.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Military Order

Off since Derby flop; fine chance in this if the earlier impressions are anything to go by

3.38 Sandown
Virgin Bet Solario Stakes (Group 3), 7f

Starlore beat a couple of subsequent winners when making a successful debut at Sandown and puts his unbeaten record on the line along with the Charlie Appleby-trained Aablan and David O'Meara's Hamilton and Ayr scorer Cerulean Bay. Mortlake and Devil's Point both have Group 1 Dewhurst Stakes entries.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Aablan

Well-bred colt; workmanlike winner at Newmarket on his debut; yard won this race last year
