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

1.20 Newbury
Download The BetVictor App Handicap, 1m2f

Definite bumped into an improver at Nottingham two weeks ago and has obvious claims off the same mark in a lower grade. Frantanck, also down in grade after a poor run at Sandown, could be the main danger.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: FRANTANCK

Very disappointing when switched to waiting tactics on step up to 1m2f; worth another chance

1.40 Ripon
William Hill Hornblower Conditions Stakes, 5f

Prince Of Pillo caught the eye with a strong-travelling debut win at Ayr in July and is an interesting prospect up in grade. The 89-rated New Definition, fourth in a Newbury Listed race in July, sets the standard.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: NEW DEFINITION

His win was at 6f but he's fully effective at 5f; sets the standard; obvious claims

1.55 Newbury
Denford Stakes, 7f

Victory Dance went down swinging in a Newmarket Group 2 and is the one to beat for the all-conquering Charlie Appleby and William Buick combination. Unbeaten filly Candle Of Hope can give him the most to think about.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: VICTORY DANCE

Major promise in two starts at Newmarket, going close in the Superlative Stakes latest

2.10 Newmarket
Discover Newmarket Fillies' Handicap, 1m6f

Atlantis is exceptionally well-bred and was impressive on handicap debut at Doncaster last month. A 9lb rise may not be enough to stop her, but she has stamina to prove and Australian Angel has no such hurdles to overcome.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: ATLANTIS

Easy win on handicap debut at Doncaster (1m4f) and she's open to more progress; big player

2.30 Newbury
BetVictor Geoffrey Freer Stakes (Group 3), 1m5½f

Away He Goes travelled well in the Goodwood Cup and could be well-suited by this drop in trip. This is a big drop in grade for him, but Queen's Vase second Zechariah will provide stern opposition with all the allowances in mind.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: ZECHARIAH

Pipped in 1m6f Group 2 at Royal Ascot; failed to repeat that effort in Newmarket Group 3

2.50 Ripon
William Hill Great St Wilfrid Handicap, 6f

Justanotherbottle won this race twelve months ago and has won twice more at Ripon since. He has to be considered, despite a tricky mark, with eight-year-old Summerghand another to consider off a conversely dangerous mark.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: SUMMERGHAND

Has not won this year but has a very tempting mark; excuses last time; major player

3.00 Newbury
Play Pick 6 At BetVictor Handicap, 7f

Gisburn is 2-3 at Newbury and returns to the venue after a great second at Glorious Goodwood. Dance Fever and Fivethousandtoone also arrive on the back of solid efforts in better races.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: FIVETHOUSANDTOONE

Interesting back at the scene of his peak effort, namely second in the 2020 Mill Reef

3.18 Newmarket
Grey Horse Handicap, 6f

Mick Appleby has his string in excellent form and Come On Girl is firmly on the upgrade after recent all-weather wins. The consistent Mister Bluebird is unlikely to be far away either.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: COME ON GIRL

Two AW wins in last three starts; big player if she can transfer her form back to turf

3.35 Newbury
BetVictor Hungerford Stakes (Group 2), 7f

Chindit has spent most of his campaign at Group 1 level but is 2-2 in lesser races this term, including a Group 2 win at Ascot. Tiber Flow is 2-2 over this trip and should give him the most to think about alongside Pogo.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: DUBAI POET

Very good third in the Jersey Stakes eight weeks ago; sole win came over C&D; interesting
