Percy's Pride was never comfortable at Goodwood and I have to accept that she needs a flat track. Windsor should be fine and I don't think she'll mind that the ground has gone soft, heavy in places. She's in great form at home and this looks an excellent opportunity especially if she benefits from the…

Golden Taipan has seemed to develop increased stamina with age and he has always been a consistent performer. This is a tricky little race but on much of his form and this suitable ground he is probably the one to beat.

Black Kalanisi's previous win on the level came on all-weather in easier company over the winter. He returns in very good form and should enjoy the track. His light-weight and the services of Silvestre De Sousa are not to be under-estimated either.  

Oscar Montel was doing well over fences last summer but his form has slipped a little and two runs over hurdles have not arrested the slide. He resumes chasing off a lower mark and we're trying a first-time visor to see if that brings any improvement.

Northern Bound had a productive spell in the late summer/autimn and probably needed his comeback run at Kempton. He looks nicely placed in this handicap to resume his winning ways.

Cu Chulainn almost fell when slipping on the bend at Lingfield earlier in the week. Fortunately he was none the worse for that and he might have a small each-way chance here.

Mumma Mac has had her three runs and shaped better last time at Wolverhampton. She starts handicapping on a fair mark and may not be far away in this open-looking contest.

Rory And Me would win this on his best form and he seems to be in a good place at home. He won two bumpers around here and 2m2f on this track could be right up his street.

Kingston Sunflower was generally disappointing in France. She was pulled up on stable debut after more than a year off the track and we are hoping that a first-time hood might bring some improvement.

This is very competitive but Pearl Beach is well up to the grade. She probably hit the front too soon at York last time and back on all-weather has a good each-way chance.

Show Respect is a lovely horse who made a very promising debut at Goodwood. With that run behind him he has every chance of opening his account.

Isaac Shelby is a very nice colt who makes his debut. He will probably need the experience but at a price he might be worth a little each-way.

29/05/22 - 1st 7/4 Original quote: "Jersey Wonder ran better than the bare form suggests at Market Rasen last time when he got into a pocket and didn't get out until it was all over. He was staying on well at the finish and that was reassuring as his career had been hampered in the…

Low-grade long-distance handicap chases are Hoot At Midnight's cup of tea. She won one over course and distance last November a short time before she went off for her winter break and will be fitter for her recent comeback run at Plumpton. Should be competitive back on this track today.

Peaked Too Soon has been in a bit of a slump for his past few runs but the handicapper has given him a chance with some welcome easing in his mark. If he could recapture the form of his close third at Warwick last September he would make them all go.

We bought Lelabad from the Shadwell dispersal last year after he had run a few times for Roger Varian and gave him an outing before Christmas. His work has been better recently and off his low mark he could hold a nice each-way chance at rewarding odds.

Mr Trick stayed on very strongly when getting up late last time to win over 7f at Haydock. Only raised 3lb for that, he now moves up to a mile but the manner in which he finished off last time, you have to be hopeful he will stay this far.
