14.30 Chesham Stakes AGE OF GOLD overcome inexperience to make a sparkling debut at Yarmouth, winning eased down, and could turn out to be top-class being a son of the mighty Frankel. He makes lots of appeal in the opener and is fancied to defeat Bedtime Story.

14.30 Norfolk Stakes WHISTLEJACKET was an expensive yearling and confirmed the promise of his debut second when easily going one better next time out. He should take plenty of beating in the opener, while AESTERIUS, who impressed on debut at Bath, cannot be ruled out with plenty more to offer.

14.30 Queen Mary Stakes Michael Bell has twice had the runner-up in this race, but he insists that impressive Lingfield scorer AMESTRIS is better than the pair. She has the potential to be very smart and is held in high esteem, so she’s an outsider to consider.

14.30 Queen Anne Stakes BIG ROCK had excuses when only sixth in the Lockinge Stakes and is better judged on his six-length win in the QEII over C&D in October. He is rated clear of these, and the drying ground will be of no concern, so he’s a definite for the shortlist.

13.50 Andy Thornton Hospitality Furniture Apprentice Handicap This is wide-open, but HECTIC has made the frame several times off higher marks and has improved with every start this year. A repeat of his penultimate fourth over C&D should see him in the mix.

18.07 World Horse Welfare Handicap GET THE MUSIC ON finished runner-up in her first two starts before going one place better at Kempton. She was too keen on her reappearance but she will be fitter here and could pose a threat.

14.13 newtonabbotracing.com Novices’ Hurdle FORTIFIED FORTUNE only found one too good when last spotted and should have every chance of going a place better here, with more to come. The well-bred SEA WARRIOR is another for the shortlist.
