Thursday 18th May

York 1.50 Clarendon House 1/2 pt ew @ 12’1 firms offering 4 places – Has some strong form in 2022, particularly on reappearance; on this year’s comeback he has to be of interest

Salisbury 2.05 Juniper Berries 1pt win @ 10’11 – Stylish effort to win at Bath on debut and the form has been franked; looks the leading contender

York 2.25 Stay Alert 3/4 pt ew @ 15’2 (NAP) – Settled better for Group 3 win at Newbury last September; slow going against her next time & looks like connections have intent with Murphy booked to ride and back on good ground

York 3.00 Northern Express 1/2 pt ew @ 15’2 / 13’2 firms offering 6 places – Won the Thirsk Hunt Cup recently and also highly effective at York; has only gone up 3lbs for the latest success and that could be lenient

York 3.35 Flying Honours 1/2 pt ew @ 11’2 firms offering 4 places – Looked a very promising juvenile & looks certain to progress at 3

York 4.10 Rogue Spirit 1/2 pt ew @ 14’1 firms offering 4 places – A very trappy race , but the selection looked something special at Haydock in September last year and looks over priced on that effort
