15:10 Fillies' Restricted Novice Stakes (For Horses In Bands C And D) (GBB Race)
PlacedClass 5 · 1m0f1y · Standard · 5 ran
Our bet: Hamdania (9/4)
Won by: Princess Honey Bee (GB) at 9/4 · then Hamdania (IRE)
What we said: Unbeaten from a single start, winning readily last time at 7f, and the step up to a mile plus a big market move into 9/4 both point the same way; a hot Horton yard (2-11 last 14 days) adds to a tidy overall picture for a filly with obvious upside. The long layoff is not itself a concern on this record, and she looks the classiest sort in a modest five-runner field.
15:45 Castle Air Handicap Stakes
We named the winnerClass 5 · 1m4f0y · Standard · 6 ran
Our bet: Sibling Rivelry (15/8)
Won by: Sibling Rivelry (GB) at 3/1 · then Romantic Spirit (FR)
What we said: Form reads 1-7-3-4-2-2, a picture of steady progress with the last two runs both seconds, and today's step back to standard ground after good-to-firm suits a filly who's been racing on quicker surfaces. She's the most consistent profile in a small, ordinary field, with solid course/trainer numbers to back it up.

We passed. Likely winner: Diomed Duke (5/2)
Won by: Diomed Duke (GB) at 6/4F · then Toolatetonegotiate (GB)
What we said: Diomed Duke's steady placing (-55213) and Wyle Cop's back-to-back course/trip wins both look competitive, but neither offers anything beyond what their prices already say, and Noble Vow's poor last run (17/18) muddies a form-book that otherwise reads three ways at once. With no standout angle to separate the front two and a moderate field size, this isn't one for staking.
16:55 / EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Did not winClass 3 · 0m7f1y · Standard · 5 ran
We passed. Likely winner: Kamaal (11/10)
Won by: Lion Of God (IRE) at 33/1 · then Mouj Albuhoor (IRE)
What we said: Kamaal is sent off favourite on the back of a form line reading 5-0-8, three runs with nothing better than fifth and a fading eighth-of-ten last time, which is thin ground for a 11/10 chance; Mouj Albuhoor's single run was a modest fifth on soft that tells us little about today's standard surface, and none of the unexposed types here — Blue Fox, Lion Of God, Saturn Star — offer a case strong enough to back at their prices.
17:30 Kss De Triomphe Handicap Stakes
We named the winnerClass 6 · 1m7f169y · Standard · 7 ran
Our bet: Fabled Spirit (13/8)
Won by: Fabled Spirit (IRE) at 5/4F · then Ada Rose (GB)
What we said: Improving over hurdles-trip on the level, running 2nd of 10 last time out at this same course, trip and going, with form figures 08032 showing a horse finding form fast. The step up in distance and repeat conditions play to his stated course/distance profile, and Archie Watson's yard is in form.
18:00 Csis - Neigh Nonsense Insurance Fillies' Handicap Stakes
We named the winnerClass 5 · 0m7f1y · Standard · 10 ran
Our bet: Angels' Share (2/1)
Won by: Angels' Share (GB) at 11/8F · then Sugar Sugar (IRE), Espanita (IRE)
What we said: Two starts running she's finished third over this exact course, distance and going, and the form line (898533) shows a filly on a clear upward curve rather than one holding recent shape by luck. She's among the quicker-away runners in a field packed with pace-trackers, which should let Ghiani get the run of the race from a clean draw slot.
18:30 Handicap Stakes
Did not winClass 5 · 0m6f1y · Standard · 8 ran
We passed. Likely winner: Acclaimed Freedom (11/4)
Won by: Watchdog (GB) at 22/1 · then Come On Over (IRE)
What we said: Acclaimed Freedom's recent form reads well (two runs back-to-back in second, over this exact trip and ground) but at 11/4 the price already matches that assessment, and Far Too Fizzy arrives on a quick backup with the same course/trip/going and market support, while Bucklow Hill's rising form line also has a legitimate shout — three horses close enough at the prices that no single one clears the bar for me.
19:00 Air Ambulance Charity Kent Surrey Sussex Handicap Stakes
Did not winClass 6 · 1m2f0y · Standard · 7 ran
Our bet: Lady Of Clover (6/4)
Won by: Boston Run (IRE) at 5/2 · then The Bay Warrior (IRE)
What we said: Won last time out at this course and dropped back to the exact 10f trip that produced that win, and the overall form line (631431) shows a filly in career-best shape with a claimer aboard who knows her. She's had only one run at the course but it was a win, and the switch back to standard ground from good-to-firm looks a neutral change rather than a concern.
