'There is no doubt he's handicapped to win this' - Harry Wilson returns with tips for all nine races on ITV on Saturday
Harry Wilson is back with his advice for all nine races live on ITV from Ayr and Newbury on Saturday . . .
1.15 Ayr
LiveScore Bet Daily Extra Places Handicap, 1m
Harry's tip: Revich
Has six duck eggs in a row but has shown more the last twice and a chance is taken on him being revitalised by a return to this track. His course form figures read 1831, with the eighth coming over 1m2f and the other three coming in the last three runnings of this race. He's 7lb below last year's winning mark and is too well handicapped to ignore at a track on which he's twice produced 100-plus RPRs.
1.30 Newbury
Dubai International Airport World Trophy Stakes (Group 3), 5f
Harry's tip: Relief Rally
Her nose defeat in the Queen Mary at Royal Ascot was the only blemish of her juvenile campaign, which ended with Group 2 success in the Lowther last August. She was sold for 800,000gns in December and made an encouraging reappearance in the Fred Darling, not seeing out 7f, before beating all bar Elite Status, who followed in a Group 3 and was far from disgraced in the Group 1 Sprint Cup, in the Carnarvon Stakes when last seen. She could be even better returned to 5f, over which she is three from four, including taking the Super Sprint here last year, and will handle any cut in the ground.
1.50 Ayr
LiveScore Bet Doonside Cup Stakes (Listed), 1m2f
Harry's tip: Phantom Flight
Produced a career-best when getting the better of Al Aasy in the Listed Steventon Stakes at Newbury on his reappearance in July and has supplemented that form with two placed efforts in Group 3 company since. He was beaten little more than a length when trying to give the Group 1-calibre See The Fire 10lb at York last time, with the reopposing Enfjaar two and a half lengths behind, and the extra furlong, coupled with the drying ground, makes him a major player despite his 3lb penalty.

2.05 Newbury
Dubai Duty Free Autumn Cup Handicap, 1m5½f
Harry's tip: Waxing Gibbous
Has shown big improvement since sent handicapping, recording form figures of 2122 and producing progressive RPRs of 76, 83, 85 and 91. She was having her first go at 1m6f when making a well-handicapped sort trained by David O'Meara pull out all the stops in the Old Borough Cup and, although she's been raised 5lb since, the pair pulled five lengths clear of the third. She could have plenty more to offer at staying trips, while she'll have no problems coping if conditions turn testing.
2.25 Ayr
Virgin Bet Ayr Silver Cup Handicap, 6f
Harry's tip: Summerghand
Summerghand is contesting the Silver Cup for the first time, having run in the Gold Cup every year but one from 2018 to 2023, and is on an irresistible mark if getting a clear shot at things. He's run some huge races this year without winning, dropping to a mark 13lb lower than for his last win, and was eyecatching at the Curragh last time, sitting last with half a furlong to run before finally getting a gap and storming home to finish sixth. Refitted cheekpieces replace the visor, and there is no doubt he's handicapped to win this.
2.40 Newbury
Dubai Duty Free Handicap, 1m2f
Harry's tip: Bolster
Topweight Bolster looks a bit underestimated in the market, given he's looked progressive since joining Karl Burke and is back in handicap company after two defeats a Group level. The form of his fourth in a Curragh Group 3 on his penultimate start has been well advertised, with winner Jan Bruegel taking the St Leger and the runner-up winning a Group 3 at the Irish Champions Festival, while a mile on quick ground was never going to suit him when upped in class for the Summer Mile last time. He's just 3lb higher than when winning a race that has worked out well at Epsom in May and any rain that falls will be in his favour.
3.00 Ayr
Virgin Bet Every Saturday Money Back Firth Of Clyde (Group 3), 6f
Harry's tip: Sky Majesty
A few of these have already shown good form, but Sky Majesty looked potentially smart when picking up well to get the better of a subsequent winner under a hands and heels ride on her debut at Newbury last month and is completely unexposed. She cost 150,000gns as a yearling and is related to a few winners, including the smart Democracy Dilemma, so there's plenty of hope she'll cope with the step up in class.
3.15 Newbury
Dubai Duty Free Mill Reef Stakes (Group 2), 6f
Harry's tip: Powerful Glory
Shadow Of Light holds the form edge and his Gimcrack second can be marked up given he challenged furthest from the favoured far rail that day, but it was hard not to be impressed with how dismissive Powerful Glory was of his rivals at Pontefract last month, and the form has been franked, with the third winning since, and the second and fourth both placed. He was Richard Fahey's "favourite breeze-up horse this year" and has been aimed at this, which the trainer won with Supplicant (2013) and Ribchester (2015), while his most recent runner Rousing Encore finished second two years ago.
3.35 Ayr
Virgin Bet Ayr Gold Cup Handicap, 6f
Harry's tip: Rohaan
Rohaan might not be the force of old, but he is still capable of high-class form and caught the eye when on the wrong side in Stewards' Cup. Sat last with two furlongs to go, he made up plenty of ground on the bridle on the outside and finished sixth in his group under a hands and heels ride. He didn't get the pace he needed in a small field at Ascot last time but that shouldn't be an issue here and he's 8lb lower than when beaten less than two lengths in this last year. The visor has worked so far and a big run is likely.
