RUMSTAR (NAP) can make a winning reappearance in Newmarket’s Palace House Stakes (2.55) for Jonathan Portman, who has started the Flat season in good form. Unexposed over 5f, he won a Group Three over course and distance as a juvenile and ended last season by claiming a listed race.

In the 2,000 Guineas (3.35), WIMBLEDON HAWKEYE (NB) can reverse Craven Stakes form with favourite Field Of Gold. He split high-class pair The Lion In Winter and Ruling Court at York before winning a Group Two over course and distance.

WIZARD OF ODDS

CHRIS BAKER

1.45 Newmarket: LETHAL LEVI won last season’s Ayr Gold Cup and finished third in a Group Three on his seasonal reappearance over this course and distance.

2.20 Newmarket: Conditions should be ideal for ARABIAN LIGHT (nap), who won two of his three starts last year before running well in Dubai over the winter.

2.55 Newmarket: BEAUTIFUL DIAMOND can make amends for her narrow defeat in this race last year when favourite. She went on to produce some smart performances.
