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

Racing Welfare Supporting Racings Workforce Handicap, 5f

Rebel At Dawn appears to be moving in the right direction after his win at Nottingham last time and is well clear of his rivals on ratings here but will be weighted as such, while the speedy Havagomecca already has two wins to her name this season.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Virginia Plane

Front-runner, in top form at present; may be hard to catch if breaking fast from stall two.

Queen Mother's Cup Handicap, 1m4f

Carlos Felix looked progressive last season but will need to take a significant step forward on what he has shown this campaign if he is to get the better of the likes of 2019 winner Arctic Fox and Civil Law.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Arctic Fox

Won this race in 2019; will go very well if she's come on from reappearance last month.

2.15 Sandown
Coral "Beaten By A Length" Free Bet Scurry Stakes, Listed, 5f

Atalis Bay has taken another step forward this season, winning once and finishing second to the promising Winter Power at York last time. He will be tough to stop if improving again but will need to be at his best to get the better of Warrior Brave and Steel Bull.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Atalis Bay

Ran well in Listed race at York last time; largely progressive and has leading claims.

2.35 York
JCB Handicap, 7f

Dazzling Dan has been consistent in big handicaps for Pam Sly in recent seasons and is enjoying another good run of form, but watch out for a market move for the unexposed Gifted Ruler, who was narrowly denied at Newmarket last time for trainer Tom Dascombe.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Manigordo

Stayed on for third over 6f at Hamilton last Thursday and respected now back up in trip.

One jockey, one trainer, one horse and one race to watch on Saturday

Latest Generation was pitched into a tough race at Newbury on his seasonal reappearance but should be much more dangerous on his handicap debut. King's Knight will doubtless be popular in the market as well after three good runs this campaign for trainer Charlie Hills.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Latest Generation

Superbly bred and looks the type to do better still; interesting on handicap debut.

Sky Bet Race To The Ebor Grand Cup Stakes, Listed, 1m6f

Makawee has been knocking on the door in two starts this season and arrives for this in top condition. Roberto Escobarr is unexposed but needs to step forward from his Ascot run last time. Ranch Hand has been running well of late, while Red Verdon won this race last year.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Roberto Escobarr

Something to find today but remains very lightly raced and could go well.

nationalracehorseweek.uk Handicap, 1m4½f

Military Two Step's strength in the market makes her of obvious appeal, especially after just two starts for Mark Johnston. Man Of Riddles is similarly unexposed, while Classic Lord sets the standard after his win at Haydock last time.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: Man Of Riddles

Novice winner on debut who ran in Listed race last time; interesting on handicap debut.

3.40 York
Pavers Foundation Catherine Memorial Sprint Handicap, 6f

Dark Shift makes his first start in a handicap and could prove far better than his current mark of 88. The same is true of Skyrunner, while Jadwal, Showalong and Aikido all have compelling profiles.

SPOTLIGHT TIP: First Folio

Only fifth after weights rise for Yarmouth win, but may still have more to offer.
