Each way
Third place behind a Mullins runner and a gambled on runner up reads well in the context of this race. Jockey claims weight here and this will be crucial if he is to get near to I will be bai the latest big money Mullins horse.
 
 

Glorious Zoff fell at the last whilst 3 lengths ahead. Would have won no doubt but that’s racing for you .

United Front
Win
Ran in the chesham at Royal Ascot for Aidan O'Brien in 2019 and although well down the field, sets the quality street here.
Ugo Gregory
Win
Is in the form of his life and was just denied last time. Plenty of place form.
These two are top weight and bottom so if one doesn't run to ability, the other may benefit.

4.10 Hay - Bussento - 3/1 - Could be on a decent mark, and may appreciate the faster surface.
4.25 Bev - Jewel Maker 11/2 EW (1/5th 3 places) - Drops back into a class 5 handicap, Top course trainer Tim Easterby's runner looks to have a good chance. My concern about a couple of dangers (Broctune Red in particular) is the reason for playing EW.
7.30 Chep - Red Alert - 11/1 EW (1/5th 4 places with Skybet) - Has won off an 8lb higher mark within the last year, he is dropping down the weights and has become well handicapped. Trainer Tony Carroll is the top course trainer with runners today, and jockey William Cox (only 2 rides) has a very fair 22% strike rate when riding for T.C.

Mr wagyu, hmmmmm. Don't have any lucky backing thus horse.
1315 regional win.

Both win 
Progressive ladies choice not much more need to win here.
Nose defeat recently says marvel dragon can pick up the pieces if not.

El valiente
Win
Righteous doctrine
Each way 
El valiente form in beating travel glory on turf just franked in previous race. 
Righteous doctrine classy performer in his day and the only back to back winner in this field ( twice). On a good mark and no suprise to see improvement..
* Very rough race and El valiente got out of a deep seam just too late and couldn't reach winner, no more than a short head second. Winner needed and got the line.*

The racing looks very tough today nothing really standing out for me  but i will have a smal play in the 1.50 Hay on an outsider who seems to be out of form but if could bounce back to form would deffo have a  chance here so its 1pt e/w FOOLS RUSH IN  28/1 4p bog from the very shrewd Goldie yard and having its 4th run for the stable! 2pts invested

Green laser
Apex top
Both win
This is charisma
Each way
Zac Purton rides green laser south African horse who has hit rock bottom ratings now.
There is a clear favourite who was an impressive winner last time but has never backed to back won before or been placed besides his three wins. May win today but not for me... 
 

Sha tin
10 am
Dream winner smashed the course record on debut recently and is upped in grade  now and raised 12lbs. He is almost unopposabe but unbackable at the odds. Watching brief on that runner.

        (2 bets this evening as cant believe Inter Milan are 11/2 so took that and double result of draw / win @ 13/8 ⚽ )  hope Inter score 1ST then City odds be attractive to score 2 or win so will bet that if happens!

115 Haydock - EQUILATERAL 10/3 sky bet ( £ back if 2nd or 3rd ) really does depend what side of the stable door this one comes out of . 2nd
