SEA SYLPH (7.30 Windsor, nb)

Made an encouraging debut for her top yard at Doncaster and she is bred to excel over this longer trip.

SHECANDOO (4.45 Lingfield, treble)

Would have won over C&D last time but for a slow start and she has a big chance off the same mark.

LEICESTER

1.00 Last Hoorah – makes appeal on paper and yard have top record with 2yos

1.30 Healing Power – sets clear standard on ratings and found a good opening

2.00 Thunder Sun (NAP) – promising colt who should appreciate step up to 1m2f

2.30 Highest Ground – needed the run on reappearance and hard to beat now

3.00 Fiftyshadesofred – eye-catching run at Yarmouth and will be sharper now

3.30 Mr Tyrrell – slipped to a good mark and jockey booking catches the eye

4.00 Granary Queen – game winner at Brighton and she is open to improvement

LINGFIELD

1.45 Yagan – arrives seeking a hat-trick and this won’t take much winning

2.15 Sky Blue Thinking – well-backed but too keen on return; worth another chance

2.45 Tawtheef – interesting now dropped back to a mile with top jockey aboard

3.15 Recall The Show – had excuses last time and had been progressive before then

3.45 Exuding – won comfortably on debut and should be capable of defying penalty

4.15 Sagittarius – encouraging debut third and should build on that for good yard

4.45 Shecandoo (treble) – blew the start last time but big chance if breaking on terms

WINDSOR

5.30 Toptime – run down late by Amor De Mi Vida last time but has pull at weights

6.00 Russellinthebushes – takes big drop in class and gets first-time headgear

6.30 Diligent Lady – likes it at this track and has slipped to a good mark

7.00 Goldie Hawk – went close here two starts ago and retains plenty of potential

7.30 Sea Sylph (NB) – nice debut effort at Doncaster and should relish this trip

8.00 Buy Me Back – lacked match sharpness last time and better expected now

8.30 Kinz – not disgraced in three starts so far and goes handicapping off nice mark

PONTEFRACT

5.45 No Nay Nicki – lack of experience showed on debut but she has promise

6.15 Mr Wagyu – ready winner at Hamilton and hard to beat under his penalty

6.45 A Star Above – comfortable success at Newmarket makes him the one to beat

7.15 Ventura Express – C&D winner who is well-drawn to attack from stall one

7.45 Bit Of A Quirke – holding his form well and has gone well around here

8.15 Warranty – rare blip latest and fancied to bounce back

8.45 Bergerac – impressive C&D success last time and hard to stop again
