Handicappers' nap

Purdey's Gift (7.10 Kempton)

This unexposed colt's reappearance at Newcastle in April reads better now than it did at the time, with the pair that beat him now rated in the 90s. Absent since, but potentially well treated ahead of handicap debut.

Newmarket nap

Red Secret (7.40 Kempton)

This Ed Dunlop-trained three-year-old may be well handicapped on a mark of 60 and blew out well for this on the Al Bahathri on Sunday morning.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Spirit Of The Sky (1.55 Nottingham)

Strong in the market and knew her job on debut when showing promise at Pontefract last month. The first foal of a three-time juvenile winner and she should go close if maintaining her level.

Ace Tipster

Ballyart (1.45 Bangor)

Shaped well on chasing debut and sure to benefit from a return to 3m. Coming off a break but yard's runners are often ready to go first time up.
Keith Melrose

Speed Figures

Be Proud (7.55 Newcastle)

Escapes a penalty for last week's decisive success over the minimum trip over this course and can complete a quick double over a furlong further.
Dave Edwards

Spotlight nap

Ballyart (1.45 Bangor)

Did not live up to expectations when third of four on chasing debut in May and not seen since. Failed to win over hurdles but narrowly beaten on heavy last December and better likely over fences for an in-form yard.
Ben Hutton

Dark horse

Take That (6.55 Newcastle)

Improved second time out over course and distance last month. A bit to find with the favourite here but well primed to take another step forward.
Rob Sutton

Must-have stat of the day

Lorcan Williams is five from six at Bangor in 2019, improving to four from four over fences (+£37.88). He rides Heavenly Promise for Fergal O'Brien in the 2m4½f handicap chase (2.45)
