Tomorrow, May 8, 2025FlatClass 27f

Preference is for EL BURHAN, who progressed in each of his 4 starts last year and George Boughey's charge can pick up where he left off having been gelded prior to this return. From stall 1, he can get the better of Sex On Fire, who showed much improved form fitted in a visor when gaining a first handicap success at Haydock just 12 days ago. God of War and High On Hope can do battle for minor honours.

    Verdict
    Confirmed debut promise when off the mark at Yarmouth last May and responded well to defy a penalty at Beverley in July. Fell short in hat-trick bid but ran well on handicap debut at Glorious Goodwood and should have more to offer this season. Tongue tie applied/gelded and has drawn stall 1.

    Verdict
    Doncaster novice winner last July but came up short when stepped up to listed company there 2 months later. Possibly unsuited by conditions when pitched into Group 3 company at Newbury on final outing and now heads down the handicap route for his reappearance. Worth keeping an eye on.

    Verdict
    Doubled his Southwell tally in November and showed much improved form to gain a first success in handicap company at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 12 days ago, a longer trip/first-time visor both possible catalysts. 7 lb higher here but big shout if the headgear is equally effective from a handy draw.

    Verdict
    Promising Invincible Spirit colt who built on debut promise to land 12-runner maiden at Wolverhampton in February. Similar form when third under a penalty back there (7.2f) in March and now makes handicap/turf debut from a favourable draw. 1 of 3 for this yard.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful performer who arrives in good nick, running well returned to handicap company when 3½ lengths third of 11 to Sex On Fire at Haydock (8f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Proving consistent but is vulnerable to less-exposed types.

    Verdict
    Fairly useful performer who won minor events at Strasbourg and Saint-Malo last summer. Improved a shade more when fifth in a Group 3 at Baden-Baden on final start in August and sold from P. Decouz €90,000 (privately) subsequently. Market check advised on handicap/yard debut.

    Verdict
    Won at Hamilton and Haydock last September. Gelded and ran respectably after 6 months off when fourth of 8 at Musselburgh (8f, good) just under 3 weeks ago but looks more or less exposed.

    Verdict
    Won a 7f Kempton handicap under Hollie Doyle in January and matched previous form without really convincing the longer trip was in his favour back there (8f) just over 6 weeks ago. This is just his second turf outing and percentage call is to look elsewhere. 1 of 3 for this yard.

    Verdict
    Placed all 3 starts in maidens and showed improved form (gelded) when winning 8-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) in March, coming in for a well-judged ride. Backed up that when fifth at Lingfield subsequently but work to do now switched to turf from the same mark. 1 of 3 for this yard.
