ITV Racing tips: one key runner from each of the five races at York on ITV on Thursday

1.50 York
Sky Bet Lowther Stakes (Group 2), 6f

Relief Rally was agonisingly denied in the Queen Mary Stakes but made up for that with an emphatic win in the Weatherbys Super Sprint last time. She steps back into Group company and tries 6f for the first time. Cherry Blossom scorched to a five-length success last time, while Flora Of Bermuda was equally as impressive at Glorious Goodwood.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Relief Rally

Sets the form standard and could be even better now tackling 6f for the first time.

2.25 York
Goffs UK Harry Beeby Premier Yearling Stakes, 6f

Middleham Park Racing struck in this valuable contest last year with Shouldvebeenaring and is represented this time by easy Pontefract winner Ziggy's Condor. Richard Hannon has won five of the last seven runnings and saddles four runners, including Persica and Dapperling, while Ryan Moore is notably booked to ride the Clive Cox-trained Dragon Leader.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Twilight Romance

C&D winner and weighted to reverse Pontefract placings with We Never Stop.

3.00 York
Clipper Handicap, 1m

Northern Express has a brilliant York record, having hit the frame in more than half of his 11 starts at the track. Last year's winner Blue For You is one of four runners for David O'Meara, while 2021 hero Cruyff Turn needs to find his scoring touch to be considered again. Dutch Decoy has strong handicap form, having finished third in the Golden Mile last time.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Blue For You

York brings out the best in him (won this last year) and he's firmly in calculations

3.35 York
Pertemps Network Yorkshire Oaks (Group 1), 1m4f

Savethelastdance and Bluestocking fought out a thrilling finish to the Irish Oaks last month and face off once again in Thursday's feature contest. Savethelastdance's trainer Aidan O'Brien is also represented by Ribblesdale winner Warm Heart. The older generation has a strong hand too with Nassau Stakes heroine Al Husn stepping up to this trip for the first time, while Free Wind landed the Middleton Stakes here earlier in the season.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Bluestocking

Ribblesdale 3rd and Irish Oaks 2nd; only four races and may well play another leading role.

4.10 York
British EBF & Sir Henry Cecil Galtres Stakes (Listed), 1m4f

Ryan Moore landed this last year on Haskoy and teams up with the John and Thady Gosden-trained One Evening, who was second in a similar contest at Pontefract last time. Sea Theme remains deeply unexposed and landed a novice contest at Doncaster last month, while Modaara needs to bounce back from a disappointing run in a Group 3 at Haydock in June.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Scenic

Improved when never-nearer third of ten in 1m2f Listed race here (good to soft) last time
