Newmarket: Anthony Burke

Kasperenko (3.40 Pontefract, nap)

Has thrived since stepped up in trip and expected to be suited by this stiff finish. David Lanigan’s hope has impressed on the summer gallop since winning at Doncaster.

Lambourn: James Burn

Spare Parts (5.20 Brighton, nap)

Looks to have found a good opportunity to get off the mark under champion jockey-elect Silvestre de Sousa, who has the bit firmly between his teeth.

Others to follow
Bath 3.00 Percy Thrower, 4.00 Drumochter, 4.30 Mordoree.
Brighton 2.20 Groveman, 3.20 Helfire, 3.50 Finale, 4.20 Born To Please.

North: Colin Russell

Tarboosh (4.10 Pontefract, nap)

Quickened in good style to win at Beverley last week. Well in despite a penalty and fancied to follow up with the easy ground in his favour.

Others to follow

Kempton 8.05 Lonely The Brave, 8.35 Voski, 9.05 Dominating.
Pontefract 2.10 Bollin Ted, 2.40 Beatbox Rhythm, 3.10 I’m Dapper Too, 3.40 Icefall, 4.40 Rockwood, 5.10 Mr Orange, 5.40 Ventura Secret.

West Country: Tim Mitchell

Imphal (6.15 Yarmouth, nap)

Progressive since switched to handicaps and upped to staying distances. Ready winner at Bath last time and is fancied to complete the hat-trick despite an 8lb rise.

Others to follow
Bath 2.00 Lucky Clover, 3.30 Argenterie, 5.00 Showmethewayavrilo.
Brighton 2.50 Eugenic, 4.20 Crucial Moment.
Pontefract 2.10 Hawridge Glory.

Racing Post Ratings: Sam Walker

Silver Alliance (4.20 Brighton, nap)

His handicap mark was in freefall after a string of poor runs but showed promise when fourth over over course and distance last time and has the ability to win if putting his best foot forward.


Topspeed: Dave Edwards

Finale (3.50 Brighton)

Has scored twice at around a mile recently and Hughie Morrison’s progressive filly can complete a sparkling treble over today’s shorter trip.


Longshot: Ed Quigley

Cosmeapolitan (3.30 Bath)

Nothing of note lately, but this looks an easier task than recent assignments and he can go well off a mark of 90.


Ireland: Tony O’Hehir

Scripturient (7.25 Sligo)

Improved on previous form when landing an admittedly weak handicap chase by 12 lengths at Stratford last month and fancied to follow up over a slightly shorter trip.
