Won by: King Of Charm (GB) at 8/1 · then Born A Rebel (GB), Timely Affair (GB)
What we said: consistent form figures of 152213 show genuine competitiveness at this level, cheekpieces retained, trainer 15% strike rate in 14d, and draw 10 workable over a mile at this track
Class 3 · 7f · Good · 5 ran
Our bet: Al Hudaiba (4/7)
Won by: Al Hudaiba (GB) · then Down To You Kid (IRE)
What we said: Appleby/Godolphin firepower, sole winner in the field, dam's sire Dubawi thrives on today's going, and 4/7 in a 5-runner field reflects genuine class edge
Class 4 · 1m · Good · 5 ran
Our bet: Cockade (4/5)
Won by: Alfaraz (GB) at 15/8 · then Moreedd (GB)
What we said: Gosden/Havlin combo fires at Newmarket, Pinatubo sire suits good ground over a mile, market leader with strong course handler stats and form franked by second-place debut boost
Class 4 · 6f · Good · 9 ran
Our bet: Sea Cookie (9/4)
Won by: Sea Cookie (IRE) at 7/2 · then Valley Ofthe Kings (SAF), Goldwork (GB)
What we said: unexposed 3yo, strong recent form (22-1), favourable going via damsire Dansili angle, and draws stall 5 in a small field where stands-side group should dominate
Class 4 · 1m6f · Good · 5 ran
Our bet: Dojin (13/8)
Won by: Sixpack (GB) · then Dojin (GB)
What we said: Gosden/Havlin handicap angle is a proven trigger, Iffraaj excels on good/fast ground, and top weight on OR83 looks well-placed against weak opposition in a 5-runner field
Class 5 · 6f · Good · 9 ran
Our bet: Mortubo (3/1)
Won by: Spacewoman (GB) at 11/1 · then Mortubo (IRE), Startled Lady (GB)
Class 5 · 5f · Good · 7 ran
Our bet: Coyy (4/1)
Won by: Quantum Power (IRE) at 7/1 · then Good Earth (IRE)
What we said: Eve Johnson Houghton's Newmarket angle is live, recent form shows improvement (0137), but draw 2 is disadvantaged in this stands-side biased sprint, offset by small 7-runner field where splits matter less
