15:05 Newmarket – TAJANIS @ 11/2

Trainer: William Haggas
Jockey: William Buick

Tajanis could well prove up to the task on what is his handicapping debut. The three-year-old gelding is a son of Australia and he has progressed with each start. The form of his last race when second to Sweet William has already been franked by Ibrahimovic, who went on to win at Hamilton for Michael Bell. The booking of William Buick by Willie Haggas is a good one. The pair rarely team up, but are seen to good effect when they do. Recent collaborative successes include Royal Charter, Spanish and Al Mubhir. He takes a notable step back in grade here and can take advantage.

15:48 Redcar – ROCK OF ENGLAND @ 5/1

Trainer: Ed Bethell
Jockey: Ben Curtis

Rock Of England has been in great form of late and has been beaten just over a length on both of his recent starts. The three-year-old seems to have turned a corner of late and comes into this race very much at the top of his game. Regular pilot Ben Curtis is once again in the saddle and with him and Ed Bethell’s team being in such good form, their chances of landing this race have to be respected, especially at this track. As a three-year-old, the horse receives weight from all bar one rival and he has to be high on any shortlist.

16:10 Haydock – STENTON GLIDER @ 13/2

Trainer: Hugo Palmer
Jockey: Andrea Atzeni

Stenton Glider was last seen running a huge race in the German 1000 Guineas. Prior to that, she finished runner-up in the Distaff at Sandown and also in the Fred Darling at Newbury on what was her seasonal reappearance. Hugo Palmer has given her an adequate break and regular pilot Andrea Atzeni is also back in the saddle. She is perfectly comfortable on this type of ground and has to be considered given the weight she receives from the likes of Purplepay and Heredia.

16:15 Newmarket – URBAN SPRAWL @ 5/1

Trainer: Charlie Johnston
Jockey: William Buick

He ran a massive race when third in the Britannia at Royal Ascot when finishing third of twenty-nine runners. He then came here and the race obviously came too soon as he finished a well-beaten sixth of six and some nine lengths behind Able Kane. He has been given a little over a month to recover and the yard has sparked into life in recent weeks. The trainer and jockey combined quite regularly and to good effect with recent winners including Sayidh Kingman, Sacred Angel and Empire Of Light. This type of ground is no problem for him and he has to be in with a big shout if back on song.
