Race 1
Race Summary: One World filly BEAUTIFUL ONE could have this race to herself. She has not been far off decent individuals and meets mostly inexperienced rivals. LAYDELAY should come on after showing potential in fifth on debut. She was green and hanging and now tries the left-handed turn. PLAYFUL JOULES is the only with experience at this track and she has run one or two decent races but has drawn widest. Well bred newcomers in the hunt too.
Selections:
#5 Beautiful One, #4 Laydelay, #1 Calanque, #8 Redlight Lane
Race 2
Race Summary: All eyes could be on R2.1-million Vercingetorix colt VIVA'S LIBERTE who may show up well even though bred for further. GREENCHOICE showed decent potential on debut. The 1000m trip looked short considering his pedigree and he could make the required improvement over 1250m. But it could get close with ROYAL CLINTON on collateral form. The latter has the best draw and may not relinquish the advantage. BALZI ROSSI has valuable experience round the bend at Hollywoodbets Kenilworth and may not mind the drop in distance.
Selections:
#3 Greenchoice, #1 Royal Clinton, #8 Balzi Rossi, #4 Quicksmart
Race 3
Race Summary: BEACH VERSE has sprinted well but should relish the extra distance if judged on pedigree and can open her account at the fourth time of asking. There are more with improvement to come. Lightly raced stablemate GIVEN TO FLY has shown potential and needs to be taken seriously. SPECIAL GLAMOUR seems capable of better and could get the timing right. WAIT FOR ME stayed on strongly, giving the impression she is looking for distance and must be respected even if having drawn wide. LOUI'S STAR sharpened up and has earning potential along with ELUSIVE GIFT, UP IN FLAMES and SESAME.
Selections:
#9 Beach Verse, #8 Given To Fly, #10 Special Glamour, #12 Wait For Me
Race 4
Race Summary: FUTURE TURN has run well in stronger contests and could get his confidence boosted dropping in class. He has drawn well to boot. But it is quite competitive. Stablemate BLIND DATE is an improving youngster that should relish the extra but a wide gate will make it tough. KATSU is consistent and will test this field if at his best after a rest. But he too has drawn a bit wide. WHAT A FORTUNE on the other hand has been given gate one and after a convincing last win he could follow up. CAPTAINS ALLIANCE and SHOW OFF rate as dark horses.
Selections:
#2 Future Turn, #1 What A Fortune, #9 Blind Date, #7 Captains Alliance
Race 5
Race Summary: PLEASE BE TRUE should be ready to prove himself at higher levels now matured. The four-year-old was a bit unlucky in his last start and can make amends. BOOGIEFIED can't be faulted. He is a strong frontrunning type that has done well on wet ground but should be better on good going. INNAMORARE should get the race run to suit and after he got his confidence boosted, he could be a threat again. GOLD DUST is lightly raced and has more to come. After needing his last start, he could make his presence felt. More can earn.
Selections:
#5 Please Be True, #1 Boogiefied, #2 Innamorare, #7 Gold Dust
Race 6
Race Summary: WEHAVEASITUATION can get it right after finishing runner-up three times in a row. But this is a Class 4 Fillies And Mares handicap and it could still prove to be a thriller. TAP SHOES finished alongside and is better off at the weights so must be in with a big shout. HAMPSTEAD HEATH must also have a say at the weights and she has drawn well. She is better than her recent form. LAVENDER BAY sustained a good finish to win well last time but has a bit more to do from a wide gate. PENTOLINA and MIRACULOUS have the form to be right there too.
Selections:
#1 Hampstead Heath, #5 Wehaveasituation, #9 Lavender Bay, #7 Tap Shoes
Race 7
Race Summary: KINDA WONDERFUL, who boasts the best draw, and SOHOT SOWHAT are best weighted and demand respect. The former may prefer further but is one to keep an eye on. The latter has solid form in sprints and can go close if taking to the track. DUMBLEDORE has form and fitness on his side and rates the rational choice. He finished well ahead of BOUNDLESS ENERGY who has talent and more importantly is unbeaten in two starts at this venue. LEGAL COUNSEL, COASTAL COMMANDER and LET IT BE SAID all should prefer further but have claims regardless. HANDSOME PRINCE has a light weight and can upset.
Selections:
#8 Dumbledore, #7 Sohot Sowhat, #5 Boundless Energy, #4 Handsome Prince
Race 8
Race Summary: The Maiden MISS MACKIE comes in best weighted. She is well bred and has shown pace but overall will need to find a bit more to feature. TRES CHIC didn't run badly over 1600m but should much prefer the drop in distance. She has a light weight and a decent draw. MELA STRENGTH only just edged TRES CHIC for fourth but more is needed at the weights this time. He is overdue. MIDWAY and GRIPEN are in good form and should run prominent races even if having drawn wide. OZARK disappointed a tad last time but can pop up from a decent stall.
Selections:
#4 Mela Strength, #2 Tres Chic, #9 Midway, #10 Gripen
Best Win: #9 BEACH VERSE
Best Value Bet: #1 HAMPSTEAD HEATH
Best Longshot: #1 HAMPSTEAD HEATH
