5. Lochnaver – 247.6
6. Persuer – 234.8
7. Oot Ma Way (FR) – 220.6
8. Yakhabar – 190.1

Now let’s analyze and assess the top contenders based on their total ratings:

1. Great Colaci – Total Rating: 266.5
   Great Colaci has shown creditable form in his recent races, finishing seventh of 13 in a handicap at Thirsk. He is back to a potentially lenient mark and could be in contention in this race.
2. Ghostly – Total Rating: 265.0
   Ghostly is a previous C&D winner who had a disappointing performance when last of 12 at Carlisle. However, he has the potential to bounce back quickly and should not be ignored in this relatively weak field.
3. Desert Quest (IRE) – Total Rating: 254.2
   Desert Quest is a previous C&D winner but finished ninth of 11 in his most recent race at Wolverhampton after an 8-month break. He is likely to need the outing and may not be at his best fitness-wise.
4. Buford – Total Rating: 247.9
   Buford has one win from 21 Flat runs and was a creditable second of 9 in a handicap at this C&D in his last race. He should be in contention again and has a good chance of being in the mix.
5. Lochnaver – Total Rating: 247.6
   Lochnaver is another previous C&D winner who finished a good second in a handicap at this course just 7 days ago. With the benefit of an enterprising ride, he should be considered as a strong contender.

Based on the comments, some additional considerations can be made:

• Persuer is mentioned as having plenty to prove for a new yard and not having been seen on the Flat for a long time. It may be wise to focus on other stronger contenders in this field.
• Oot Ma Way (FR) is returning from a break and had a poor performance in his last race. With something to prove, he may not be one of the top contenders in this race.

It’s worth noting that Yakhabar is mentioned as a horse that could benefit from blinkers and is on a handy mark. Although his total rating is lower, these positive comments suggest he could be a dark horse and should be given consideration.

Based on the analysis and comments, the top contenders in this race are Great Colaci, Ghostly, Buford, Lochnaver, and Yakhabar.

   Alfa Moonstone won a race at Catterick in May but finished last in her most recent race at Beverley. She needs to bounce back in this race to be competitive.
2. Lady Showcasing – Total Rating: 349.1
   Lady Showcasing has shown promise in her three maiden races, finishing fifth at Carlisle in her last race. With her speed, she can’t be discounted and may improve in this race.
3. Sankari (IRE) – Total Rating: 339.3
   Sankari is a previous winner at Thirsk and finished third in a seller race at Musselburgh. Although she was caught in the dying strides in her last race, she may be vulnerable to horses of above-average ability.

Based on the comments, some additional considerations can be made:

• Dear Mary finished fourth in a maiden race at Carlisle and could make her presence felt if she takes another step forward. Despite her lower total rating, she is worth considering based on her recent performance.
• Dc Flyer finished last in his debut race at Pontefract after missing the break. It’s hard to fancy his chances based on that performance.
• Indication Spirit (IRE) is an interesting newcomer from a yard with a strong team of 2-year-olds. Although her total rating is lower, her breeding suggests she could have plenty of speed and should be given a market check.
• Im Spartacus (IRE) and Whogoesthere (IRE) have limited information available, but their breeding and potential should be considered, especially Whogoesthere, who has an interesting pedigree.

Based on the analysis and comments, the top contenders in this race are Alfa Moonstone, Lady Showcasing, Sankari (IRE), and potentially Dear Mary and Indication Spirit (IRE) as dark horses.

3. Mehighburn (IRE) – Total Rating: 255.7
   Mehighburn finished last in a minor event at Beverley on debut but is also up in trip for this race. It’s hard to make a strong case for him based on his previous performance.

• Cerulean Bay (IRE) has an appealing pedigree, being a New Bay colt and a half-brother to several winners. With his breeding, he should be worth a look in this race.

• Thats For Sure (IRE) is an interesting newcomer, being an Unfortunately colt and a half-brother to useful winners. His breeding suggests he may have potential.
• The Bitter Moose (IRE) is another debutant with an impressive pedigree, being a Kodiac colt and a half-sister to a smart 1¼m winner. He should be taken seriously in his first race.

Based on the analysis and comments, the top contenders in this race are Sayidh Kingman (FR), Alghalib (IRE), and potentially Cerulean Bay (IRE) and The Bitter Moose (IRE) as dark horses.

2. Wadacre Grace – Total Rating: 336.7

Based on the comments, some additional considerations can be made:

• Powdering (IRE) is a lightly-raced maiden who may do better now sent handicapping on her return to action.
• Oriental Lilly finished eighth in a handicap at this course in her last race. She is significantly back up in trip but carries 6lb out of the weights, which may make her task more challenging.
• Butterfly Island (IRE) remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs and has recently competed in a novice hurdle race. She has limited appeal in this race.

Based on the analysis and comments, the top contender in this race is Gone (IRE), who has shown excellent form this year. Cosa Sara (IRE) is also a strong contender based on her previous C&D win and creditable recent performances.
