Racing Post Ratings: Sam Walker

Pacify (1.55 York)

Looks a player judged on his easy course-and-distance success two starts back and his latest defeat wasn't a bad effort considering he was tackling 1m6f for the first time.

Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Corrosive(4.50 York)

Has been in fine form this season and could gain further rewards for his consistency.

Longshot: Samuel King

Caliburn (1.55 York)

Hugo Palmer's three-year-old can go well in an open-looking handicap to start the day. He looks unexposed and could be open to further progression with the step up in trip likely to suit.

Ireland: Tony O'Hehir

Honor Oak (5.20 Killarney)

The Tom Hogan-trained six-year-old performed well twice at the Galway festival, finishing second and then benefitting from positive tactics to score by eight lengths over this mile trip. A close third over 7f at Cork on her most recent starts, she can return to winning ways under 7lb claimer Ben Coen.

The Raceform Interactive nugget

Sir Michael Stoute has had two winners, two seconds and a third in the last nine runnings of the Sky Bet Handicap at York over 1m4f (+£15 to £1 level stakes).Melting Dew can enhance that impressive record at 1.55.
