6.00 Unibet Novice Stakes (GBB Race)

TimeWise Top Two Rated:

1. Ultrasoul (IRE) – Total: 290
2. Eliza Bennet (IRE) – Total: 260

Ultrasoul (IRE)

• Form: This 3-year-old colt comes into the race 17 days after his last outing. His Raceform running style indicates he typically “Presses leaders”. Trained by R Varian, who has a 93% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days, and ridden by Ray Dawson. He holds an Official Rating (OR) of 86, a Topspeed (TS) rating of 76, and a Racing Post Rating (RPR) of 97.
• Comments and Assessment: Ultrasoul was a beaten favourite in his last race over 1m, making his record 0-6. However, he has demonstrated “notable form” over 6f-7f, including a second-place finish to a useful rival on his seasonal debut at Lingfield (AW). The race preview suggests he “sets the standard” now that he is back down in trip. The spotlight verdict considers him the primary choice, stating that he “would be giving an extra 9lb to Eliza Bennet in a handicap scenario,” implying his superior class. His high RPR and strong performances at this distance suggest he is a leading contender despite his maiden status.

Eliza Bennet (IRE)

• Form: This 3-year-old filly last ran 24 days ago, also adopting a “Pressed leaders” running style. She is trained by J Fanshawe, who boasts a 100% winner-to-runner ratio in the last 14 days, and will be ridden by Oisin Murphy. Her OR is 72, TS is 76, and RPR is 88.
• Comments and Assessment: Eliza Bennet recorded a “modest third” in her latest maiden event, making her record 0-7. Her best performances include two runner-up finishes, one of which was in a C&D handicap (behind a subsequent winner) on her penultimate start. She is identified as “second best on ratings”. While consistent, the spotlight verdict notes Ultrasoul’s significant advantage in a hypothetical handicap scenario, suggesting she faces a tough challenge against him.

6.30 Try Unibet’s New Improved Acca Boosts Apprentice Handicap

TimeWise Top Two Rated:

1. Mamma Maria – Total: 266
2. Silca Bay – Total: 252

Mamma Maria

• Form: A 3-year-old filly who last raced only 5 days ago, her running style is listed as “Pressed leaders”. She is trained by W Haggas (71% W-R in the last 14 days) and will be ridden by Jack Nicholls (3). She carries an OR of 67+2, but her Topspeed and RPR are not provided in the race card.
• Comments and Assessment: Mamma Maria was “first past the post” in two 1m handicaps on turf this season, with the most recent being at Salisbury five days prior (though she was demoted to second). She is considered a “leading player” off the same mark, provided she can transfer her turf form to 7f on the All-Weather (AW). The spotlight verdict states she is “feared most” assuming this form transfer occurs. Her recent form is strong, but the surface and distance change are key unknowns.

Silca Bay

• Form: This 3-year-old colt last ran 14 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” running style. He is trained by E Houghton (47% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Oliver Carmichael (5). His OR is 67, TS is 62, and RPR is 73.
• Comments and Assessment: Silca Bay’s record is 431 since being equipped with cheekpieces, and he recently “opened his account” in a C&D contest. He has been raised 4lb, but jockey Oliver Carmichael’s 5lb claim means he effectively carries less weight than his new mark. With the headgear retained, he is “respected”. The spotlight verdict selects Silca Bay, predicting “further progress” to follow up his C&D success. His proven C&D form and the advantageous weight claim make him a very strong contender.

TimeWise Top Two Rated:

1. King Of Thunder – Total: 281
2. Balthamos – Total: 233

King Of Thunder

• Form: A 2-year-old colt who last raced 39 days ago, running as a “Pressed leaders” type. He is trained by H Palmer (57% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by David Egan. He does not have an OR or TS, but his RPR is 76.
• Comments and Assessment: King Of Thunder has “showed some ability” with a fourth-place finish at Ascot (6f). He was subsequently withdrawn from the Convivial Maiden at York due to vet’s advice. He holds two Group entries and is “likely to progress”. The spotlight verdict identifies him as “the pick of the runners with experience” and expects him to “build on his Ascot effort”. His potential, indicated by Group entries and a promising RPR, makes him a significant prospect.

Balthamos

• Form: This 2-year-old colt last ran 19 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” style. He is trained by S & E Crisford (67% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Harry Davies. He lacks an OR and TS, but his RPR is 71.
• Comments and Assessment: Balthamos was gelded after his debut and “took a step forward” with a fourth of 13 at Thirsk (7f). He possesses a “useful pedigree” and “may improve again”. While not the top selection, he is an experienced runner with a good pedigree, suggesting he has the scope for further improvement.

2. Wedonttelllies (IRE) – Total: 233

Mr Seagull (IRE)

• Form: A 2-year-old colt who last ran 17 days ago, adopting a “Pressed leaders” style. He is trained by H Palmer (57% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Oisin Murphy. He has no OR or TS, but his RPR is 89.
• Comments and Assessment: Mr Seagull “prevailed narrowly” in a small-field newcomers’ race at Pontefract (6f), recording a “fairly useful RPR”. This makes him the “pick on the figures” in this field, even with a 7lb penalty. The spotlight verdict positions him as the “form pick” and “second choice” overall. His proven winning form and high RPR, despite the penalty, make him the leading contender based on demonstrated ability.

Wedonttelllies (IRE)

• Form: This 2-year-old colt last ran 18 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” style. He is trained by R Hughes (61% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Finley Marsh. He lacks OR and TS, but his RPR is 67.
• Comments and Assessment: He finished eighth of ten at Newbury (7f) but “seemed to need the outing/experience” and “may do better”. The spotlight verdict includes him among horses with potential for improvement. He is an unproven individual with a lower RPR compared to Mr Seagull, but could improve with experience.

• Comments and Assessment: This Justify filly, who cost $260,000 as a yearling, made a “very promising debut” in a Goodwood maiden 11 days ago, “scoring cosily”. Her breeding suggests she is “suited by this longer distance”, and she is “respected under a 7lb penalty”. The spotlight verdict makes her the selection, expecting her to “show progress and confirm Goodwood placings with Club Class despite the worse terms”. Her impressive debut and pedigree point to significant potential, making her a strong favourite.

Club Class

• Form: A 3-year-old filly who last raced 11 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” style. She is trained by J Fanshawe (100% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Oisin Murphy. Her OR is 75, but she has no TS or RPR listed.
• Comments and Assessment: Club Class is a “consistent maiden” who is “better off with Just Keep Flying on Goodwood running (1m2f)” and “holds a fighting chance” now upped in trip with a “tongue-tie fitted”. She is returning to AW for the first time since her debut. The spotlight verdict positions her as the second choice, noting her improved terms against Just Keep Flying. The combination of better terms and new headgear could allow her to improve on her previous performance.

TimeWise Top Two Rated:

1. Wild Clary (IRE) – Total: 277
2. Preanka – Total: 268

Wild Clary (IRE)

• Form: A 3-year-old filly who last raced 17 days ago, with a “Led” running style. She is trained by R Hannon (55% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Sean Levey. Her OR is 78, TS is 71, and RPR is 91.
• Comments and Assessment: Wild Clary has “bits of 7f form” and recently won a 6f maiden at Southwell, her ninth attempt. She is “much less exposed on AW than on turf” and “enters calculations returned to handicap level”. The spotlight verdict suggests she “may build on her last-time win”. Her recent maiden win on AW indicates she’s found her stride on this surface, making her a viable contender in this handicap.

Preanka

• Form: This 3-year-old filly last ran 184 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” running style. She is trained by S C Williams (58% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by William Buick. Her OR is 79, but no TS is provided; her RPR is 90.
• Comments and Assessment: Preanka is a thrice-raced filly who “appears to go well fresh”, having won readily on her 2yo debut (6f, turf) and gone down “only narrowly” in her sole outing this term (7f, AW). She is described as an “interesting handicap debutante” returning from another layoff. The spotlight verdict deems her “one to catch fresh” and the “second choice” upon her return. Her proven ability when fresh, combined with her AW performance, suggests she could be a significant factor despite the long absence.

9.00 Try Unibet’s New Improved Acca Boosts Fillies’ Handicap

TimeWise Top Two Rated:

1. Scarboroughwarning – Total: 279
2. Powdering (IRE) – Total: 267

Scarboroughwarning

• Form: A 4-year-old filly who last raced 13 days ago, with a “Pressed leaders” running style. She is trained by Sir M Prescott (60% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Luke Morris. Her OR is 78, TS is 74, and RPR is 84.
• Comments and Assessment: Her record is 2-14. She was disappointing last time, but her penultimate effort showed “solid AW form”. She has “possibilities if taking well to first-time headgear”. The spotlight verdict makes her the selection, noting her “good effort behind the subsequent Great St Wilfrid winner” and her potential if the “first-time headgear” proves effective. Her strong AW form makes her a key contender, with the headgear change being a critical factor.

Powdering (IRE)

• Form: This 5-year-old mare last raced 24 days ago, with a “Held up” running style. She is trained by M Herrington (25% W-R in the last 14 days) and ridden by Billy Loughnane. Her OR is 79, TS is 74, and RPR is 82.
• Comments and Assessment: Her recent form includes a “respectable effort” at Glorious Goodwood. She returns to AW “just 1lb above last winning mark” and “could go well”. The spotlight verdict places her as a contender. Being only 1lb above her last winning mark makes her well-handicapped, and her Goodwood performance indicates good form, making her a definite threat.
