Newmarket: David Milnes

Daarik (3.20 Newcastle, nap)

Defied a penalty last time and has previous course knowledge, which could prove crucial. John Gosden's hope has since worked well on the Al Bahathri.

Others to follow
Lingfield 1.30 Raucous, 2.00 Aircraft Carrier, 2.30 Island Of Life, 3.05 Encrypted, 3.40 Deputise, 4.15 Wissahickon, 4.45 Keyser Soze.
Newcastle 2.10 Lufricia, 3.55 Big Kitten, 4.25 Gantier, 4.55 Burford Brown.
Bath 2.55 Pablo Escobar, 3.30 Ghayadh, 4.05 Queen Of Desire, 4.35 Given Choice.

North: Colin Russell

Oriental Lilly (4.55 Newcastle, nap)

Not at her best after a break at Musselburgh last time. Will be all the better for that race and back at a track that suits over this shorter trip, she can take advantage of a current good mark.

Others to follow
Bath 2.20 Don't Joke, 2.55 West End Charmer, 3.30 Tricorn, 4.05 Made In India, 4.35 Bayshore Freeway.
Lingfield 1.30 Starlight Romance, 2.00 Watersmeet, 2.30 Clon Coulis, 3.05 Kachy, 3.40 Charming Kid, 4.15 Matterhorn, 4.45 Cardsharp.

Lambourn: James Burn

Heartwarming (4.05 Bath, nap)

Three-year-old is lightly raced and it is unlikely we have seen the best of her. She should enjoy the fast ground and looks poised for a big effort.

Others to follow
Bath 1.50 Global Prospector, 2.20 Album, 2.55 Robert L'Echelle, 3.30 Salute The Soldier, 4.35 Hareeq.
Lingfield 1.30 Breathless Times, 2.00 Spark Plug, 2.30 Gorgeous Noora, 3.40 Quiet Endeavour, 4.45 Silver Quartz.
Newcastle 1.40 Lady Kermit, 3.20 Creationist, 3.55 Bartholomeu Dias.

Racing Post Ratings: Simon Turner

Living Legend (2.55 Bath)

Progressing with racing and on a very fair mark judged on his latest success at Kempton. Likely to find further improvement now up in distance again.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Forbidden Planet (3.55 Newcastle)

Lowered the track record when a convincing Kempton winner last month and can make it four from five on the all-weather since joining Roger Charlton.

Longshot: Neil McCabe

Silvery Mist (2.30 Lingfield)

An improving French filly from in-form yard, she could outrun her odds if getting a strong pace to aim at.

The Raceform Interactive nugget

Island Of Life (2.30 Lingfield)

James Doyle has a 39 per cent strike-rate when riding on the all-weather for William Haggas in the last three seasons (25 wins from 65 rides; +£11.95 to £1 stakes) and the pick of his rides for the trainer at Lingfield is Island Of Life in the 2.30.
