Age: 3-year-olds only
Declared Runners: 8
Distance: 1m 1f

Race Preview

PERSIST landed a victory on a return in May, that score being delivered at Ripon.

Following that she was sent to the Sandringham at Royal Ascot.

It was a credible enough run, although not getting anywhere near the winner.

But she looks a decent one all the same and Persist lands on the shortlist.

MILLIONS THANKS put a win on the board in May on his reappearance run and has stayed in form in two follow-up efforts.

Just under three weeks ago he was a good runner-up at Pontefract.

Million Thanks ranks a danger as he comes up on a trip.

RICH KING is the other one for us in this race as he takes on a pretty hefty 6lb rise.

That’s because of a good win at Haydock when last seen 48 days ago.

There’s plenty more to come from him, and he should be in the frame.

Tip: MILLION THANKS 11/4

Ones to watch: Persist 6/4, Rich King 7/2

14:00 Doncaster Handicap Horse Racing Tip

Race Type: Class 5
Age: 3-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 9
Distance: 5f

Race Preview

SOUND OF IONA posted a victory when last seen, which was only four days ago at Ayr.

Given the form from that one, as long as this is not too quick of a turnaround, she will get close.

Sound Of Iona has won here at Doncaster before and carries a 5lb penalty.

JEANS MAITE has had a good season winning two of six efforts, the most recent of which was at Southwell in February.

She made a return after a break of 7 weeks six days ago and looked fairly sharp in tracking a runners-up spot here in a handicap.

NIBRAS AGAIN is the final selection and another that faces a quick turnaround having only run five days ago.

He gets a 5lb claimer which could be extremely useful, as he looked in better heart last time out.

Nibras Again is on a long winless streak, but place claims in a fairly weak contest could be there.

Tip: SOUND OF IONA 7/2

Ones to watch: Jeans Maite 9/2, Nibras Again 8/1

14:45 Carlisle Fillies’ Handicap Horse Racing Tip

Race Type: Class 4
Age: 3-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 13
Distance: 5 1/2f

Race Preview

RUN THIS WAY is worth a look in this wide-open contest. She looked in good heart three weeks ago with a runner-up spot at Ayr.

There was a victory for her back at the start of the campaign as well.

If Run This Way can back up her latest run, then there is a chance here.

RAZEYNA has shown plenty of quality so far in her three starts and looks to have plenty more to come as well.

Razeena won on her debut and connections are probably a little disappointed that she did not add to that in either of her follow-up efforts.

But she does appear to be on a decent mark at the moment to have a chance of getting her nose right in this.

EY UP IT’S MAGGIE is a former course winner and piques some interest here as she lowers her sights.

She was a distant sixth in a Listed fixture at Ayr three weeks ago.

That was too much for Ey Up It’s Maggie, but this could be within range.

This is a really deep field and others to watch in the fixture include MONICA, EMERALDS PRIDE and IRIS DANCER.

Tip: RAZEYNA 11/4

Ones to watch: Run This Way 12/1, Ey Up It’s Maggie 11/2

19:23 Epsom Downs Handicap Horse Racing Tip

Race Type: Class 4
Age: 3-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 7
Distance: 6f

Race Preview

INDIAN CREAK is looking to add to a win that he took at Windsor 10 days ago. He made it all in that contest.

There has been a success for Indian Creek before at Epsom, so there are claims here for him. He’s under a 5lb penalty for that recent win.

STERLING KNIGHT was in fine fettle earlier this season when he took back-to-back victories.

That’s two wins in five so far this season.

Sterling Knight finished behind Indian Creak at Windsor 10 days ago but is now 5lb better off against that rival.

PRINCE OF BEL LIR has won three of his last four efforts, so he can’t be taken lightly in this contest.

He came up 3lb for a win at Nottingham in a small-field handicap two weeks ago. He should be right there.

Tip: STERLING KNIGHT 4/1

Ones to watch: Prince Of Bel Lir 3/1, Indian Creak 2/1

Race Type: Class 5
Age: 3-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 9
Distance: 1m

LENNY’S SPIRIT can be faulted for the recent form that he has put down recently. He is seeking a hat trick on Thursday.

There is an extra 8lb that he deals with after comfortably taking a score at Yarmouth two weeks ago. He is just thriving so it’s worth a look.

MR FUSTIC scored a commanding victory at Wolverhampton last time out to make it back-to-back wins for him.

He was well on top of things last time out and now looks to be really putting things together.

If Mr Fustic takes to the turf, he could mount a challenge.

CANAGAT has some place claims for this contest after doing well enough here at Epsom last time out.

He comes back up on the trip after going at 7f last time out. He does look as if he needs more for win purposes, however.

Tip: LENNY’S SPIRIT 5/2

Ones to watch: Mr Fustic 9/4, Canagat 14/1

18:53 Epsom Downs Handicap Horse Racing Tip

Race Type: Class 5
Age: 4-year-olds plus
Declared Runners: 7
Distance: 7f

Race Preview

OTAGO won twice at the course and distance last season, including the 2021 renewal of this very race.

There was a score at Brighton for Otago on his penultimate run. He also takes a slide in class and all the pieces really fit for him.

GRANARY QUEEN was a winner last time out when things went her way at Brighton.

It was a strongly-run race and it was the second win in her last six runs. Granary Queen is not always easy to catch right but is no forlorn hope.

ESSME is on the shortlist as well for this contest after good recent efforts including a win at Lingfield in May.

Her follow-up was at the same venue in which she landed a runners-up spot.

Essme was nowhere near the winner in that one, but she appears to be in excellent heart at the moment.

Tip: OTAGO 5/2

Ones to watch: Granary Queen 11/4, Essme 41
