2.45 It would not be safe to rule any of these out but the percentage call could be Indian Chief. Aiden O’Brien has won this race 3 out of the last 7 runnings and the horse looks to have plenty of scope.

4.25 Humour has been the subject of good reports.

5.00 Hidden Justice, Chancery and Eagle Rock all make some appeal. For my selection I will go with Hidden Justice with Chancery the danger.

1.45 Clayton does not have too many miles on the clock and ran well in a decent handicap at Epsom last time.

2.15 Farlow has dropped a couple of pounds in the handicap which puts him in with a chance in a race like this. Although he might be best with some cut he has won on good to firm.

2.45 Liber Nauticus is bred to win an Oaks and should take this en route to the Epson classic.

3.15 My short list for this comprises Jack Dexter, Tickled Pink and Swiss Spirit. Tickled Pink is my final choice. She is very much on the upgrade. Swiss Spirit, form a stable in good form, looks the danger.

4.25 Steventon Star and Extortionist are the pair I like here. The former has the strongest form but the latter gave the impression when he won at Nottingham that there was more to come.

5.00 Robot Boy and George Rooke are my two against the field.

3.50 My 2 against the field for the Victoria Cup are Mabait and Well Painted. The former hasn’t won for getting on for 2 years but as a result is well handicapped on his best form. The ground will suit although he does not have a favourable draw. Well Painted is lightly raced and looks to have further improvement in him. The stable are going well and he has a decent draw. He is yet to run on fast ground.

Haydock

2.25 Hanseatic was beaten a neck at Windsor on only his second career start. He will have learned from that run and can go one better here.

4.05 Pintura is probably best at this trip and has a sporting chance. The ground could be a negative though.

1.45 Mijhaar should be suited by both trip and ground while Sir John Hawkwood looks the type of horse to improve with time and has won on fast ground.

2.45 The Irish raider may well take this but both Havana Beat and Gabrial’s Kaka are worth considering. Havana Beat is preferred. The form of his Sandown win last season has worked out well and he showed promise when 4^th on his seasonal reappearance.

4.25 You da One is well drawn and should go well.
