LORD BERTIE (3.25 Ayr, nap)

He had a commendable finish last time out, taking second place in a strong field. He performs best on soft ground, making today’s conditions ideal. Racing at the same rating and partnered with Cian Horgan, who claims 5lb, he is in a promising position. If he mirrors his recent performance, he could have a solid chance for David O’Meara.

SIEGE OF TROY (2.30 Bath, nb)

He didn’t display his full potential in the Ebor last outing, ending up in the middle of the pack. This was disappointing considering he had shown improvement, particularly after a third-place finish in a Leopardstown Group 3. Oisin Murphy is riding again today.

AHAMOMENT (2.50 Ayr, treble)

After winning at Musselburgh last time with nearly six lengths to spare, he appears ready to follow up under a penalty.

CARDINAL POINT (4.35 Chelmsford, Lucky 15)

She consistently delivers solid performances on all-weather tracks and was close to victory at Kempton after a robust second here. Her rider’s 5lb claim brings her closer to her last winning mark, and she has shown her capability at this demanding distance.
