2:49 Ripon: Napoleons Casino And Restaurant Leeds Handicap Stakes

Tiva Conor Whiteley(5) · David O'Meara

Tiva won last time out and was a winner three starts back too, showing a sharp profile over the past six runs, and she has experience of today's trip and going to call on. Drawn in stall one carrying 143 lb, the weight she shoulders is the chief question.

Hiya Maite Jack Gilligan · Roy Bowring

Placed third last time out and a runner-up four starts back, Hiya Maite brings solid recent form into this, and his rating of 88 — ranking him second in the field — underlines his strong claims, though the fact he's yet to score in his last five starts is the nagging concern.

Equity Law David Allan · Tim Easterby

Equity Law won back-to-back races in his last six starts but disappointed on his most recent outing just 13 days ago, and that bounce-back effort needs monitoring here. He has experience of today's trip and going, carries 138 lb from stall 14, and sits mid-division in the ratings.

Mighty Magnus Connor Beasley · Michael Dods

Mighty Magnus arrives here in good nick after finishing second two starts back, and has run over today's trip and going, giving him solid grounding for this assignment; yet to win in recent starts, but his rating of 90 tops this field of 15 and he commands respect drawn in stall 12 off 138 lb.

Rock of England Jason Hart · Paul Midgley

Third last time out and a winner two starts back, Rock of England arrives in fair nick on a 13-day turnaround and has run over today's trip and going before, but carrying 138 lb from stall 13 with our rating edging just below his official mark suggests he faces a stiff ask here.

Kinetic Force Oisin Orr · Ruth Carr

Kinetic Force has run over today's trip and going, and a win three starts back shows he can find the line, but back-to-back disappointing efforts since — including a seventh last time out — make him a harder sell at 137 lb from stall nine.

Angel Numbers Ethan Tindall(5) · Ruth Carr

Three consecutive runs without a finish in the frame make Angel Numbers hard to fancy on current form, though she has won twice in her last six starts and has run over today's distance and going before, giving her some profile to work with.

Winchurch Luke Morris · Michael Appleby

Winchurch has won twice in his last six starts, but ranked 11 of 15 on our figures and eighth last time out, he arrives with little to recommend him at face value; experience over today's trip and going at least means conditions hold no surprises.

Accrual William Pyle · Ruth Carr

Third three starts back and a winner four starts back, Accrual has shown enough ability to engage, but fifth last time out and a modest recent profile temper confidence; he has run over today's trip and going, carries 134 lb from stall 15, and returns on a sharp ten-day turnaround.

Emerald Harmony David Nolan · Paul Midgley

Emerald Harmony showed real ability when placing third and filling the runner-up spot four and five starts back respectively, and she returns on a quick turnaround with distance and going experience in her favour; the risk is that three consecutive disappointing runs since suggest she may need things to fall right.

Our Absent Friends Rowan Scott · Tristan Davidson

Placed third in each of his last two starts, Our Absent Friends arrives fit on an 18-day break with experience over today's trip and going, though he carries 132 lb from stall eight and has been inconsistent in recent starts.

Emperor Caradoc Paul Mulrennan · Paul Midgley

Yet to score in his last six starts, Emperor Caradoc heads here just 10 days after his latest effort, bringing experience over today's trip and conditions; a second five starts back offers some encouragement, but two consecutive unplaced runs and a rating of 70 leave him with plenty to prove from stall 10.

Mark's Choice Oliver Stammers · Gemma Tutty

Ranked bottom of the field on our figures, Mark's Choice is winless in his last six starts and finished a well-beaten seventh last time out, making him hard to fancy despite the experience over today's trip and going, and a consistent second two starts back offering scant consolation.

Canaria Queen Duran Fentiman · Tim Easterby

Winless in her last six starts and ranked 14 of 15 on our figures, Canaria Queen faces a stiff task, though a second three starts back and her experience over today's trip and going offer slim crumbs of comfort returning quickly on 11 days' rest.

Intervention Andrew Mullen · Michael Appleby

Winless in his last six starts, with a pair of sevenths, an eighth, and two unplaced efforts preceding a modest third last time out, Intervention is hard to fancy from stall 2 carrying 121 lb, and ranked 13 of 15 on our figures despite the return after 45 days and distance-and-going experience offering slim comfort.
