Tomorrow, September 1, 2025Flat7f

A tight handicap with plenty of pace on paper and that won't inconvenience RHYTHM KING who won consecutive handicaps at Galway and Curragh last autumn and his encouraging sixth at Galway after a 4-month absence suggests he retains all his ability. He's preferred to Merisi Diamond who won this race last year but has a wider draw to overcome, while Apache Outlaw remains on a handy mark if building on his recent fourth. Earls won this race in 2022 and is well-treated if he can bounce back to form.

    Verdict
    Dual C&D winner last year, including this race. Below his best when ninth of 20 in 7f handicap at Curragh (17/2) 100 days ago, travelled well for a long way but failed to quicken when needed. Has gone well fresh in the past and he's one to consider returning to this track.

    Verdict
    From a good family and he built on his promising debut effort when easily landing 8-runner maiden at Gowran (8f, good to soft) in May. Didn't progress on handicap debut when sixth of 12 at Leopardstown (7/2) 88 days ago. Returns from a break over a shorter trip and too soon to write off yet.

    Verdict
    Without a win in 10 runs and has fallen to a handy mark for all he showed no signs of capitalising when 15th of 18 in handicap at Galway (20/1) 32 days ago after taking keen hold. Has won on his last two visits to this track (including this race in 2022) and could be worth another chance.

    Won a 7f novice at Catterick (15/2) in first-time blinkers in April before finishing third of 9 in handicap at Goodwood without headgear 85 days ago, showing good attitude when rallying late. Winner franked that form subsequently and could be interesting on stable debut despite a wide draw.

    Verdict
    4-time winner off higher marks last year but mixed recent form. Back on track when fourth of 8 in handicap at Curragh (5/1) 16 days ago, raced off the pace and made headway without threatening. Remains on a handy mark and has a chance if getting the breaks from stall 15.

    Verdict
    Useful second in listed race at Newmarket last November and closest she's come to matching that form when second of 5 in conditions race at Naas (10/1) 28 days ago, sharpened up by the change of headgear. Shaped as though worth another try over 7f and not ruled out if blinkers have same effect.
