We have a busy day's racing on Friday with Flat action from Brighton, Chepstow and Wolverhampton, live on Your Site Racing...
Alfaraz seeks his first win in our third race on a seven-race card, the Bill Lewtons 80th Birthday Novice Stakes.
This son of Nathaniel is a three-race maiden but the form of his three starts reads very well. He wasn't beaten far on debut at Goodwood last year, when just denied by Derby hopeful Ancient Egypt over a mile. He was then beaten by Shayem at Epsom on his final start as a two-year-old and ran a fine race behind the highly-regarded Maltese Cross when last seen.
Given the strength of his form, this Andrew Balding colt could be using this as a stepping stone onto better things.
El Nay represents Richard Hannon and Shadwell Stud and has shown a decent level of form in his first three starts, so he cannot be completely ruled out.
The Oliver Cole-trained Echo Of Stars did a lot of the donkey work when reeling in a runaway leader at Newbury and could yet prove much better than that effort in time.
My Boy Harry was an impressive winner last time out and looks to defy the five-pound penalty in the Fairplay Daily Price Boosts Handicap at Brighton.
The Jim and Suzi Best-trained gelding ran a very eye-catching race on his previous start, where he stayed on strongly to finish fourth over the minimum trip and he subsequently bolted up back there over seven-furlongs. This was a facile success, and the penalty may not be enough to stop him.
The remainder of the field are out of form, but Kondratiev Wave has been knocking on the door of late and could represent the chief threat.
Dalmally, Dion Baker and Zu Run have all got a course success to their name so you couldn't rule out a return to form for any of them.
The Your Site Racing Sky 415 Fillies' Novice Stakes pits together two progressive fillies in an exciting clash at Wolverhampton.
Hollywell Stream has just the one run to her name but the form of that run at Doncaster last year reads very well as Lilt, who beat her a neck that day, has since franked the form in a Listed contest at the York Dante Festival.
Always Happy is owned by John Magnier, Michael Tabor and Derrick Smith and looked good when winning on debut in March before losing little in defeat when she was turned over at Lingfield last time out. She go run out of it by a potential improver when carrying a winning penalty so there could be plenty more to come from this progressive filly.
Venetian Sky was last seen finishing behind Fashion People at Yarmouth, who is Coronation Stakes-bound and Flagpole could be one to keep an eye on for Billy Loughnane and John and Thady Gosden.
