Good morning folks

A challenging time for me but still. A selection who we backed and trackered last time is a below, also with a long term favourite and another improver. Back later for tomorrow

2:05 Newbury

TUXEDO JUNCTION– 1.25 Pt Each way @ 6/1 6 places generally

Tuxedo Junction was a two-and-a-quarter-length third to Mustazeed and Time Interval on that occasion, but he is 6lb better off with both after the runner-up’s subsequent heavy-ground win at Goodwood, and there are reasons for thinking he can improve past them anyway.

That was the four-year-old’s first run in six months and first since being gelded, and he is both a year younger and considerably less exposed than the pair who beat him.

His return was a clear career best, while his previous best according to Racing Post Ratings (better than his Ffos Las maiden win) came over course and distance last May.

4:45 York

TITAN ROCK– 3/4 Pt Each way @ 17/2 6 & 5 places generally

4:35 Newmarket

ASHKY– 3/4 Pt Win @ 7/1 Will Hill, 13/2 generally

TARBAAN– 3/4 Pt Win @ 7/1 Will Hill, 13/2 generally

3:00 York

MAJESTIC– 1.25 Pt Each way @ 13/1 6 places Bet365, 14/1 5, 14/1 generally
