17:20 Thirsk — Next Meeting Tuesday 16th June Featuring Royal Ascot Handicap model predictions

Showtown (IRE)

0%

Down the field on his handicap debut at Beverley (5f, good to soft; first-time cheekpieces) last month but ran a bit better when fourth of 11 at Haydock (6f, soft) 15 days ago; better still needed.

Von Trotter (GB)

0%

Second in his first three starts (6f/5f, AW) but finished down the field in a competitive race at York (5f, good) on his handicap and turf debut three weeks ago; steps back up in trip and drops in grade.

Daizen (IRE)

0%

Sole win from nine starts came in a maiden at Ayr (6f, soft) in September; below that level since but he shaped a bit better than the bare result at Haydock (6f, soft) 15 days ago; each-way chance.

Logi Bear (IRE)

0%

Sole win from 12 starts came for Richard Hannon at Newmarket (6f, good) last May; struggled on his last few starts for that stable and he's not threatened in his two outings since joining this yard; dropped another 3lb.

Empress Olivia (GB)

0%

Both wins have been over 6f at Ripon, the most recent in April on good to soft off 4lb lower than today; led a smaller group of five when 11th at Ascot (6f, good) 28 days ago but looks capable of bouncing back.

Brave Traveller (GB)

0%

Won a 6f nursery at Newcastle in December and went close there last time over 5f on his first start since being gelded; steps back up in trip and returns to turf; can make his presence felt.

Hvar (GB)

0%

Off the mark at the third attempt when winning a novice at Wolverhampton (6f) in October on his final start for Ralph Beckett, but he's struggled in three handicaps since joining this stable; others have stronger claims.

Bye Law (IRE)

0%

Won Ayr maiden and Redcar novice (6f, good/good to firm) last summer but he hasn't matched that level in handicaps since; never-dangerous sixth of 14 at Beverley (5f, good to soft) last month but well held over 7f at York 13 days ago; drops back to 6f with a place squeak.

Real Jack (GB)

0%

0-5 but runner-up in a novice at Newcastle (5f, AW) in November; midfield finish on handicap debut at Southwell (6f, AW) in April and ran to a similar level there (7f) four weeks ago; drops back in trip on this return to turf.

Uncertainty (IRE)

0%

Nine-race maiden who was runner-up at Lingfield (7f, AW) on her final outing for Richard Hannon; however, she's struggled in three starts for this yard (1m/6f) and has a bit to prove.

Perineighs (IRE)

0%

Five-race maiden but she posted a solid effort when third of nine on her handicap debut at Nottingham (5f, soft) in October; off since but should be suited by the step back up in trip.

Different Opinions (IRE)

0%

Promising second on his debut at Chelmsford (7f, AW) in March but he's not progressed in three starts since, including over this trip at Ripon in April; makes his handicap debut with a visor now applied.
