Ralph Beckett loves a winner at his local track of Salisbury and will surely have high hopes for Revelance in the Danny McNab Bookmakers Novice Stakes on Tuesday.
Despite never really threatening to land a blow behind the impressive Verse Of Love on her racecourse debut at Newmarket in October, the daughter of Blue Point was a hot favourite on her second start at Kempton the following month and was only narrowly denied by Life Is Beautiful.
The form looks sound, with the winner now rated 98 after finishing second to Falakeyah in the Listed Pretty Polly Stakes at Newmarket this spring, so there must be every chance Revelance can make it third time lucky on her seasonal reappearance.
Safari Dream looks well placed to complete his hat-trick in the George Smith Horseboxes Handicap.
Rated has high as 85 a couple of years ago, Rod Millman's charge dropped to a mark in the low-60s this spring and he has taken full advantage.
A couple of placed efforts on the all-weather suggested a revival could be on the cards and while he disappointed on his return to the turf at Haydock in late April, he showed his true colours when making all the running over this course and distance next time and has since followed up at Chelmsford.
An 8lb hike for his latest triumph takes him to a revised rating of 69, but he is still well handicapped on the pick of his form and is clearly loving life at the moment.
Duskaura is difficult to oppose in the curtain-raising British Stallion Studs EBF Maiden Fillies' Stakes at Catterick.
A £62,000 breeze-up purchase, the Twilight Son filly was a relatively unfancied 12-1 shot for her Yarmouth introduction, but outran her odds to finish a clear second to fellow debutante Staya, who set her connections back 375,000 guineas.
Time may tell Duskaura bumped into a smart one first time out and she should go one better in the sort of company she faces in North Yorkshire.
Course regular Stellarmasterpiece has an obvious chance in the Download The Raceday Ready App Handicap.
Micky Hammond's charge has won twice over this course and distance, most recently in early April, since when she has posted second and fourth-placed finishes.
Her petrol tank ran to empty over 2800m a week and a half ago, but dropped back to her favoured distance of 2400m and with cheek pieces applied, a bold bid looks assured.
Peregrine Falcon is rated the best bet on the all-weather at Wolverhampton as she bids to open her account in the Highbet Weekly Racing Rewards Club Restricted Novice Stakes, while evening jumps fare comes from Fontwell, where runaway Newton Abbot scorer Onethreefivenotout can make it back-to-back wins for Paul Nicholls in the Weatherbys Racing Bank Handicap Chase. - Press Association
