York 2.15 I have Klondike as one of my horses to follow for this season in handicaps. He still has a Group 2 entry at Royal Ascot and the stable tend to farm this race in recent seasons. Advised Bet Klondike 1pt win @ 4’1

Ffos Las 2.30 Manuelito comes from a yard that won this last season , this is tougher on handicap hurdle debut but he did it in good style last time and should have more to offer. Advised Bet Manuelito 1/2pt ew @ 11’2 firms offering 4 places

York 2.45 A very tricky big field handicap and I can’t find any sort of selection , so a race just to watch

York 3.15 Last years winner Azure Blue comes back in a bit to retain the title , she had a run last year ; but I suspect this has been a target and she should go well once again. Advised Bet Azure Blue 1/2 pt ew @ 6’1 / 11’2 firms offering 4 places

York 3.45 Friendly Soul does look the one to beat , but the Irish raider Mayfair comes from a yard who’s runners tend to come on for a run & I think she is a bit over priced at the current odds. Avised Bet Mayfair 1/2 pt ew @ 15’2

York 4.15 A race for unexposed 3 year olds and its not a race I can find a selection in
