AYR 3.00
CLASSY AL (1pt e/w – 7/1 Will Hill, 13/2 Generally)

This 6f handicap looks like a race of two halves, as we have five prominent racers drawn in stalls 1-5 and six hold-up horses drawn in stalls 6-11. Given the forecast headwind, we could see a pace collapse and the likelihood of a hold-up horse swooping down the outside to win. Step forward CLASSY AL, who has Hollie Doyle booked. This often-keen sort won over 7f here just nine days ago and was a dual course and distance winner earlier in the season. Progeny of his sure Fountain Of Youth do well on turf after a very recent run (1-15 days ago), landing 29 of their 170 starts for a huge profit of £313.75.

WORCESTER 3.51
RARE CLOUDS (1pt e/w – 14/1 Paddy Power/Betfair, 12/1 Generally)

RARE CLOUDS went into the tracker after an eyecatcher in the ‘swamp’ on the inside rail at Leicester last December and he did this column a 28-1 favour when successful at Southwell in May on his next outing. He’s winless in three subsequent starts but was only beaten by two lengths into third in the first of them, slipped up on the flat in the next one and, last time out, reportedly lost a shoe when a 14-1 fourth over today’s course and distance. Daryl Jacob takes over from a conditional jockey and he looks worth a punt.
