Newmarket: David Milnes

Reeth (2.25 Windsor, nap)

The son of Kodiac ran a decent first race when fourth in a maiden at Leicester last month and that form has been advertised. John Gosden's colt has since worked well on the Al Bahathri.

Others to follow
Pontefract: 3.10 Jamil, 3.40 Galileo's Spear, 5.20 Creek Harbour.
Windsor: 1.25 War Eagle, 1.55 Emirates Empire, 3.30 Ashington, 4.00 Glassy Waters, 5.05 Maazel.
Kempton: 5.45 Emily's Sea, 6.15 Bunniann, 6.45 Mawsool, 7.15 Cristal Spirit, 7.45 La Rav, 8.15 Refrain, 8.45 Coverham, 9.15 Faithful Promise.

Lambourn: James Burn

Surrey Thunder (2.25 Windsor, nap)

Joe Tuite is enjoying his most prolific season and thinks plenty of this juvenile who shaped with so much encouragement on his debut at Sandown last month. Third that day, he might have been closer but for meeting trouble and should handle the cut in the ground.

Others to follow
Kempton: 6.15 Napanook, 6.45 Punjab Mail, 7.15 Cosmogyral, 7.45 Manson, 8.45 Tuscany, 9.15 Little Palaver.
Pontefract: 2.05 Just Hubert, 2.35 Mendoza, 3.10 Sod's Law, 5.50 Fronsac.
Stratford: 2.50 Jenkins, 3.50 Robert's Star, 4.25 Rouge Vif, 4.55 Ken's Well.
Windsor: 1.25 Gallic, 3.00 Mans Not Trot, 3.30 Mr Reckless, 5.05 Mistry.

North: Colin Russell

Frankster (4.45 Pontefract, nap)

Not been at his best this year, but is on a good mark now and as he goes well on the track and has the ground to suit is expected to shape much better this time.

Others to follow
Kempton: 5.45 Piste De Reflextion, 7.45 Baraweez, 8.15 Lopes Dancer, 8.45 Franks Legacy, 9.15 Alba Del Sole.
Pontefract: 2.05 Gravistas, 2.35 Musical Sky, 3.10 Dream Today, 3.40 Rubenesque, 4.10 Jo's Girl, 5.15 French Resistance, 5.50 Matterhorn.
Stratford: 2.15 The Resdev Way.
Windsor: 1.25 Dark Thunder, 3.00 Clenymistra, 4.00 Ginbar, 5.05 Racquet.

West Country: Andrew King

Bags Groove (2.50 Stratford, nap)

Will have benefited for his first run over fences in May and is considered banker material on his return to action.

Others to follow
Stratford: 2.15 Come On Charlie, 3.20 Who's My Jockey, 3.50 Roll The Dough, 4.55 Lillington, 5.30 Flemenco Tempo.
Kempton: 8.45 Crystal Casque.

Racing Post Ratings: Simon Turner

Freed From Desire (5.45 Kempton)

Ran better than the bare facts indicate at Doncaster last time, suggesting she might have better to come. Likely to represent value against lesser exposed rivals.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Little Palaver (9.15 Kempton)

Took advantage of a falling handicap mark to end his barren spell at Bath a week ago, escapes a penalty and can complete a quick double.

Longshot: Samuel King

Psychotic (Kempton 8.15)

Still has low mileage for a five-year-old and there could be more improvement to come from this previous course winner.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Ellie Mac (4.15 Tipperary)

Having shown improvement from her first run over fences to finish second over the 2m4f trip at the Listowel festival last month, the Henry de Bromhead-trained five-year-old makes plenty of appeal and can score under Rachael Blackmore.
