Handicappers' nap

Zoffee (8.00 Windsor)

Improving with racing this year and took a nice step forward when winning over course and distance last time. A similar effort may suffice.

Newmarket nap

Lady Bowthorpe (4.15 Lingfield)

Ran a cracker to finish fifth behind Saturday's impressive Newmarket winner Mutamaasik at Chelmsford last time and has since moved well on the Al Bahathri.
David Milnes

Eyecatcher

Foxy Forever (6.30 Windsor)

Held up at Bath last time, as he often is, and tried to make his effort between the front pair inside the final furlong but the gap closed, ending his chance. He would probably have gone very close otherwise and he can atone here.

Speed figures

High Acclaim (7.00 Windsor)

Ended a long losing sequence when scoring over course and distance two weeks ago and can follow up.
Dave Edwards

Spotlights nap

Eligible (3.45 Lingfield)

Steady improvement this year and got off the mark in good style in a mile handicap at Sandown 25 days ago (good to firm), keeping on strongly. Up 6lb but has shown promise on Polytrack and looks to have solid claims.

Dark horse

Brogans Bay (5.15 Lingfield)

Set off far too quickly in an attempt to overcome a wide draw last time and paid the price late on when finishing fifth. She is a previous course-and-distance winner and a better draw could see her to better effect.
Ben Harris

Irish angle

Royal Highness (6.20 Roscommon)

A promising second on her debut at Tipperary, Royal Highness is more likely to improve than three-time runner-up Amy's Angel.
Tony O'Hehir

Must-have stat of the day

James Sullivan is 5-10 when riding for Tim Easterby at Catterick in the last three seasons, for a £1 level-stakes profit of +£23.50. Three of those wins were recorded on Our Charlie Brown and he rides that gelding in the 7f handicap at 4.30.
