Needs improvement but is interesting, as a lightly raced 4yo who has had two wins at 1m
5 (17)	Rowayeh Bay J:Jim Crowley T:Owen Burrows	J:Jim Crowley T:Owen Burrows	136	h	31136-	88	98	69	253d	—	—	+11	23.8	1.63/1	13/2 13%
Well-bred filly who's still in training; back down in trip with a hood back; one to note
14 (8)	Bodorgan Grey J:William Buick T:Charles Hills	J:William Buick T:Charles Hills	128	—	6388-6	80	101	87	18d	—	—	0	10.6	1.88/1	15/2 12%
Close, front-running 6th of 17 here (1m, good) on return, big step back in right direction
13 (12)	Carolus Magnus Bay J:Billy Garritty T:Michael & David Easterby	J:Billy Garritty T:Michael & David Easterby	128	t	59960-	80	102	73	182d	—	—	0	10.6	2.00/1	8/1 11%
Respectable ninth of 34 in the Cambridgeshire here last September and he's now 5lb lower
16 (5)	Zozimus Bay J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	J:Daniel Tudhope T:David O'Meara	126	v	9-7093	78	105	-	6d	—	—	0	9.9	2.13/1	17/2 11%
Well handicapped on plenty of 2023 form; sole win (32 races) was an Irish maiden in 2020
9 (6)	Bystander Bay J:Clifford Lee T:K R Burke	J:Clifford Lee T:K R Burke	134	—	61-217	86	98	-	36d	—	—	+3	11.4	2.50/1	10/1 9%
2-4 on AW; needs improvement on this first turf run since last of six on debut
11 (16)	Sudden Ambush Bay J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	J:Oisin Murphy T:Andrew Balding	133	t	254-10	85	99	82	56d	—	—	+3	10.9	2.75/1	11/1 8%
Needs a career best but not dismissed, judged on turf and AW achievements
1 (3)	Farasi Lane Bay J:Kieran Shoemark T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	J:Kieran Shoemark T:Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole	139	—	268-21	91	99	75	33d	—	—	+5	12.2	3.00/1	12/1 8%
In career-best form on AW; no great worry about his return to turf and he needs respect
2 (14)	Pjanoo Bay J:Tom Marquand T:Richard Spencer	J:Tom Marquand T:Richard Spencer	137	p	1446-1	89	97	84	26d	—	—	+16	21.1	3.50/1	14/1 7%
Asserted in good style on AW last time, so is one to consider, but he's 8lb higher today
6 (9)	Arthur's Realm Bay J:Rossa Ryan T:Ed Dunlop	J:Rossa Ryan T:Ed Dunlop	135	p	74-351	87	98	84	9d	—	—	+5	10.9	4.00/1	16/1 6%
Whether he gets softer than good going remains to be seen but respect is needed if he does
3 (2)	Chuzzlewit Bay J:Shane Gray T:Kevin Ryan	J:Shane Gray T:Kevin Ryan	136	b	-59419	88	99	60	42d	—	—	+12	18.1	4.50/1	18/1 5%
Soft ground may have been against him in the Lincoln but he has lots to prove on turf form
4 (13)	Darkness Bay J:Sean Levey T:David O'Meara	J:Sean Levey T:David O'Meara	136	v	0035-0	88	102	94	21d	—	—	+7	10.6	5.00/1	20/1 5%
1-22 for this yard (last two seasons) with the win on Newmarket July course last summer
17 (4)	Speriamo Grey J:Saffie Osborne T:Philip McBride	J:Saffie Osborne T:Philip McBride	124	b	0137-4	76	98	86	22d	—	—	+3	7.7	5.50/1	22/1 4%
Some good runs at Newmarket; a bit extra is needed from her in the first-time headgear
8 (15)	Legend Of Leros Bay J:Neil Callan T:Marco Botti	J:Neil Callan T:Marco Botti	134	t	37494-	86	99	76	136d	—	—	+7	10.7	6.25/1	25/1 4%
Twice tailed off from five races last season; gelded in January and now tongue tied
10 (1)	Aalto Bay J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	J:Richard Kingscote T:Ian Williams	134	—	/3107-	86	94	75	182d	—	—	+13	15.5	12.50/1	50/1 2%
33-1, no impact on either run for new yard; needs much better than his French form too
12 (7)	Larado Bay J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	J:Alistair Rawlinson T:Michael Appleby	129	v	6-4157	81	98	92	64d	—	—	+6	8.5	16.50/1	66/1 1%
2nd at Epsom last August showed some turf ability remained, but not the percentage call
NR (10)	Epsom Faithfull Bay J:Paddy Bradley T:Pat Phelan	J:Paddy Bradley T:Pat Phelan	127	p	-31173	79	97	68	36d	—	—	—	18.9	—	—
