13:48 (Haydock) Fine Interview

Fine Interview ran well on seasonal return when a close third in this handicap grade attempting the journey at Doncaster two months ago and has a leading chance in the Betfred Supports Jack Berry House Reverence Handicap with William Buick on board.

Durham Castle bids for a hat-trick after a break. Scored by three lengths contesting a lower level 6f handicap last September at Goodwood.

Kodi Lion makes for plenty of appeal following a 2L second among this company over 6f at Ascot. Could go close again.

Last month Ripon winner Dakota Gold looks interesting.

14:10 (Chester) Never So Brave

Never So Brave makes seasonal reappearance in the Ladbrokes Handicap Stakes.

Was last of ten in a 6f Ascot handicap during October. Holds winning form at this course and can provide a bright start to the season.

Telemark finished seventh on first attempt this prep contesting a 6f Newcastle handicap 20 days ago. Might improve.

Bobby Bennu placed a good 1.75L third at Wolverhampton on initial outing this year. Racing fresh off a break will be thereabouts again.

Fair Point won tackling track and trip. Resumes after a last of thirteen in the Listed Prix de Saint-Cyr at Longchamp during October so holds possibilities.

14:23 (Haydock) No Half Measures

G3 winner No Half Measures recorded a close fifth attempting the 5f Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp two outings back at Longchamp.

Disappointing on return but sharp improvement expected second up and has a big chance in the Betfred 'The Classic Bookmaker' Achilles Stakes with Oisin Murphy in the driving seat.

Jasour holds G2 winning form as a two-year-old. Placed third in last years G1 Commonwealth Cup at Royal Ascot. Shortlist on best form.

Leovanni won the 5f G2 Queen Mary Stakes at last years Royal Ascot. Interesting option, while Seven Questions warrants a second look.

14:40 (York) Loom

Loom is making gradual progression this season. Appeared to need the run on seasonal reappearance and produced a better effort when second in a competitive York handicap.

Can go one better in the William Hill More Top Prices Handicap.

JM Jungle deserves to break through following two commendable seconds among top-class handicap company. Big ask from top weight. Still warrants strong consideration.

It Just Takes Time has been improving with each run. Third at Thirsk when last seen. Holds each way claims.

Kodiac Thriller appeals from near bottom of the weights. Place chance.

14:58 (Haydock) Estrange

Estrange is two from three following a 1.75L victory among Listed company last November at Doncaster and can score again in the Betfred Nifty 50 Lester Piggott Fillies' Stakes.

Beautiful Love represents leading connections. Did well earlier this month when 12L runner-up attempting the 1m2f G2 Middleton Stakes at York. Major player.

Shaha confirmed promise last year making a winning return in the 1m4f Listed Daisy Warwick Stakes at Goodwood and might feature along with Chorus finished sixth that day at Goodwood.

15:15 (York) Divina Grace

Divina Grace demonstrated improvement on stable debut and seasonal reappearance when taking the G3 John Porter Stakes at Newbury.

Less impressive when third in the G2 Jockey Club Stakes at Newmarket and Andrew Balding's five-year-old will be seen to better effect in female only company despite a penalty in the Bronte Cup Fillies' Stakes.

Term Of Endearment was having her first start for a new yard when down the field in Meydan.

Best of last season's form would put her firmly in the mix including G2 Lillie Langtry Stakes over same distance at Goodwood.

Sueno remains lightly raced. Expected to relish the stamina test on her first attempt over the trip. Fourth at Goodwood when last seen.

Scenic was a useful second in aforementioned Goodwood contest (Listed Daisy Warwick Fillies Stakes). Fourth on only previous try over a similar test.

15:33 (Haydock) Audience

Last years G1 Lockinge Stakes winner Audience can bounce back sharply on UK return after a G1 ninth at Meydan.

Enjoys this distance and this rates an ideal opportunity to score again for the Gosden's in the John Of Gaunt Stakes.

Kinross holds an excellent record over this trip including when runner-up in last years 7f G1 Qatar Prix de la Foret at Longchamp two outings ago and will be the main danger.

Alyanaabi showed a liking for this track when winning a Listed course and distance event three weeks ago and makes for appeal along with last time Doncaster Listed winner Spycatcher.
