Dog Friendly Raceday Tues 2nd June Handicap (Div 1)

(11)

Borderline Madness¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-9| J: J Mitchell| T: W Stone| OR: 55| D

3/1

Second over C&D from slightly higher mark in November and probably needed run when eighth of 14 in a handicap at Yarmouth 18 days ago on return from a 4-month break. She won her previous start in 0-55 company and looks primed for a big showing here.

Form: 31527-8

(5)

Kondratiev Wave^p³⁵

Age: 9| Weight: 9-9| J: Oisin Murphy| T: A W Carroll| OR: 55| BF| D

3/1

Dead-heated when ending losing sequence at Lingfield over 7f in February before fourth of 9 in handicap there 35 days ago. Merits plenty of respect with Oisin Murphy booked back up in trip.

Form: 362314

(10)

The Spotlight Kid^b⁵⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-7| J: Daniel Muscutt| T: D K Ivory| OR: 53| D

10/3

Made the frame all 4 starts this year and won't need much more to figure again here, but he hasn't won since 2024 so is perhaps more of a place prospect.

Form: 55-2443

(3)

Shaws Phoenix²⁴⁸

Age: 5| Weight: 9-6| J: Dylan Hogan| T: P Charalambous & J Clutterbuck| OR: 52WS

7/1

Yet to win in 15 starts and ran poorly when eighth of 9 in handicap over 7f at Yarmouth when last seen in August. First run for new trainer after breathing operation with cheekpieces/tongue strap removed. Plenty to prove.

Form: 7/93558-

(7)

Pink Socks¹⁸

Age: 7| Weight: 9-5| J: Paddy Bradley| T: Stephanie Cassidy| OR: 51| CD

20/1

Has won over C&D but hasn't fired in 3 starts since leaving Ian Williams and is best watched back up in trip.

Form: 496659

(2)

Manton Road^b³⁵

Age: 4| Weight: 9-5| J: Kieren Fox| T: R T Phillips| OR: 51

14/1

Quirky sort who won 4 times for Gay Kelleway in early 2025 but largely out of form the rest of that year. Still looks to be finding his feet for current yard and is best watched.

Form: 0076-57

(8)

Starshot^t⁹

Age: 6| Weight: 9-3| J: Sean Kirrane| T: L A Mullaney| OR: 49

7/1

Made the frame for a third consecutive time in classified company at Newcastle in March but has never won a handicap and struggled in one there last time, racing freely. Return of usual tongue strap should help but looks an unlikely winner.

Form: 3-84240

(6)

Ring Of Gold^v⁵⁰

Age: 9| Weight: 9-2| J: Billy Garritty| T: M & D Easterby| OR: 48

6/1

Runner-up twice over 7f in classified contests earlier this year, though good form came to a halt when fifth of 12 last time. Not always good at the start and has done all his winning at 7f so return to 1m perhaps not ideal and could prove vulnerable back in a handicap.

Form: 46-9225

(4)

Mavetheforcebewivu^p¹⁸

Age: 4| Weight: 9-0| J: Ray Dawson| T: A D Brown| OR: 45

16/1

Yet to win from 14 starts and looked rusty returning from 8 months off when seventh of 11 in handicap over 7f here 18 days ago. Needs plenty more back up in trip.

Form: 34395-7

(9)

Vecchio^p⁴⁶

Age: 6| Weight: 9-0| J: K T O'Neill| T: S Dixon| OR: 45

28/1

A maiden after 26 career runs and offered little after 4 months off when seventh of 8 here in March. Hard to fancy.

Form: 79765-7

T: P S McEntee J: S De Sousa

Forecasts

Kondratiev Wave (7/4), The Spotlight Kid (2/1), Ring Of Gold (6/1), Borderline Madness (8/1), Shaws Phoenix (14/1), Manton Road (20/1), Starshot (25/1), Kessaar Power (25/1), Pink Socks (25/1), Mavetheforcebewivu (33/1), Vecchio (50/1)

BORDERLINE MADNESS ran well when runner-up here in November and is entitled to improve significantly for her recent reappearance outing so looks set to run a big race. The Spotlight Kid made the frame 3 times here earlier this year and is feared most, whilst Kondratiev Wave is also respected.
