Handicappers' nap

Sootability (5.25 Carlisle)

Shaped with promise when not getting much luck in running at Haydock a fortnight ago, and with softer conditions in her favour she can take advantage of a reduced mark.
Paul Curtis

Newmarket nap

Logician (3.00 York)

Progressive grey who looked better the further he went when stepped up to this trip at Newbury last time. The John Gosden-trained colt has since impressed on the Limekilns round gallop.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Infrastructure (4.15 York)

1m6f still looked an inadequate test of stamina last time as he was doing his best work late. Step up to 2m will suit and he can reverse form with Charles Kingsley.

Irish Angle

Golden Spear (5.05 Killarney)

Things didn't go his way in the Galway Hurdle won by stablemate Tudor City, but he ran better than his finishing position suggests and this looks less competitive.
David Jennings

Speed Figures

Constantinople (3.00 York)

Has been on the wrong end of three photo-finishes this season and richly deserves a change of fortune.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Justanotherbottle (1.55 York)

Respectable fifth in the Stewards' Cup after racing prominently for a long way. Drop back in trip no problem and has a major shout off 1lb below last winning mark.
Steve Boow

Dark horse

Arecibo (1.55 York)

Possibly hit the front too soon at Ascot before finding himself drawn on the wrong side of the track in the Stewards' Cup. Slight drop in trip should suit.
Olly Eden

Must-have stat of the day

Shanksforamillion has three wins and a place from five runs over hurdles at Worcester (0-12 elsewhere). He is 4lb below his last winning mark and can go well in the 2m4f handicap hurdle (7.00).
