15/2
Fairly useful winner as a juvenile (at 7.8f) who arrives having finished runner-up on each of his last 2 starts, latterly in 4-runner Hamilton handicap (11f) 2 weeks ago. Fancied to give another good account.

4/1
Sea The Stars colt who finished runner-up on first 2 starts in handicaps and unsuited by small-field scenario when third of 4 in handicap (11/8) at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 14 days ago, staying on. Return 1½m looks sure to suit and he remains with potential.

16/1
Landed 4 AW events equipped with a visor since the turn of the year, latterly a Newcastle handicap (12.5f) in March. Out of his depth in Group 3 company on final start for Barry Brennan and this more suitable now starting out for new yard.

Lightly-raced winner who returned with a good second in a Southwell novice (7f) in March. Disappointed when twelfth of 13 in handicap (16/1) at Newmarket (8f, good) 61 days ago. Needs to bounce back upped significantly in trip.

Fairly useful maiden who ran respectably when fourth of 5 on handicap debut at Chester (10.3f, soft) 22 days ago, weakening final 1f. Needs to pull out a little more now stamina is tested further.

3/1
Improving son of Golden Horn who built on reappearance promise when winning 8-runner handicap at Ascot (10f, good to firm, 11/2) 36 days ago, asserting last ½f. Longer trip here promises to be within range and one to consider with further progress anticipated.

Night Of Thunder gelding who went close to breaking his duck on handicap debut at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in April. Ran below that level back on turf when seventh of 8 in handicap at York (11.8f, good) 31 days ago but too soon to write him off.

Winner at Beverley in May. 14/1, not in same form tackling stronger company when sixth of 7 in handicap at York (10.2f, good) 22 days ago, left behind 3f out. Others make greater appeal.

Lope De Vega colt who improved on his exploits as a juvenile upped markedly in trip when second of 9 in a Leicester novice (10f) 3 weeks ago. Represents top stable and he looks sure to progress further now handicapping/upped further in trip.

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, good second of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (11.9f, good) 16 days ago, wandering final 1f. Has the ability to get competitive from this sort of mark and he's an each-way player up in class.

Improved in line with the step up to 1m late last year, runner-up in a C&D nursery before getting off the mark at Wolverhampton (8.6f) in November. Never figured when seventh of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f) on return 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip now.

17:15 Thirsk - 16 June 2024 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

TOO BOSSY FOR US continued his theme of race-by-race progress when opening his account at Ascot (10f) 5 weeks ago, the steady gallop probably masking his superiority to a degree. He shades the vote to continue on his upward curve tackling this longer trip. Align The Stars remains the type to do better again and is also of interest, with Extra Beat and Fox Legacy completing the shortlist.
