FIRST PAST THE POST
EMILY POST (1.0) should deliver the goods for Ed Bethell on another cracking card at Doncaster.
The three-year-old relished returning to turf when bolting up from Bungley at Carlisle 18 days ago.
That race is working out well so this pacy type can make light of a lenient 4lb penalty.
YOU ARE NOT FORGIVEN (1.35) looks poised to make the bookies suffer in the TPD. Zone Handicap. The four-year-old was unlucky to meet Lenny’s Spirit on debut for Tony Carroll at Nottingham.
The gelding remains nicely unexposed on turf so can go one better in this weaker race.
MOSTLY CLOUDY (2.45) ought to seal a four-timer for skilled handler Gemma Tutty.
The colt improved again when hammering Pons Aelius over 1m 6f at Nottingham.
The three-year-old was doing all his best work late so should strike a little over two miles.
Paul Midgley’s BURNING CASH (3.20) can turn up the heat in the Betfair Handicap.
The speedster had a career best when chinning Mejthaam over course and distance. That is excellent form so the gelding ought to shrug off a deserved 3lb hike upped in class.
Clive Cox’s RUM COCKTAIL (3.55) can pay for a few rounds in the TPD Handicap. The three-year-old was better than ever when denying Chief White Face at Goodwood last month.
The filly looks open to plenty of progress so should defy a 2lb rise in another warm contest.
Richard Fahey can bag both divisions of the sprint with MONSIEUR KODI (4.30) and ABSOLUTE DREAM (5.0).
ROCKET RODNEY (1.50) is red-hot for George Scott in the Dragon Stakes at Sandown.
The juvenile can score with any repeat of last month’s terrific second to Little Big Bear at Royal Ascot. CABINET OF CLOWNS (3.30) is no joke in the Jameson Handicap after defeating Swift Tuttle at Salisbury last month.
Eve Johnson Houghton’s gelding has a bright future so should capitalise on a fair mark.
HIGH WELLS (4.38) can give Fergal O’Brien a rare flat winner in the staying handicap.
The mare is on an attractive mark after outpointing Moel Arthur over track and trip just under three weeks ago.
