13:50 – Atalis Bay 

The first of Paddy’s Pick 5 races with a daily £/€10k prize fund at York. ATALIS BAY had absolutely no luck in running at Goodwood having travelled strongly, and he can atone now. He tried to concede 12lb to Mondammej on his previous handicap start, and has fallen 6lb below the mark he ran off there, and he showed enough at Goodwood to suggest he could capitalise. Robert Cowell had a welcome winner on Monday night, and his fortunes are surely on the rise again.

PADDY’S PICK 5 IS OPEN TO PLAY AT YORK

14:25 – Chaldean

The Acomb has been a graveyard for favourite backers, and the advice is to tread warily. My idea of the winner is Andrew Balding’s CHALDEAN, who impressed with his demeanour when winning at Newbury last time. The trio who chased him home all won next time, and he’s ready for Group company on that showing.

15:00 – Deauville Legend

The ‘Voltigeur’ is a trappy race with no guaranteed pace, and DEAUVILLE LEGEND would have been a more confident choice with a guaranteed gallop to run at. Nevertheless, he has form to his name at least as strong as Secret State, and deserves to be closer to that one in price.

15:35 – Mishriff 

Baaeed is clearly the one to stop and the unbeaten wonder horse ought to be at least as good at this trip as a mile on pedigree. That said, it’s not certain that he will stay, and these are better horses than he’s been beating at a mile. MISHRIFF won this impressively last year, and while his slow starting of late is a worry, he can give the supposed good thing a massive fright if back to his best.

16:10 – Red Flyer 

I’ve backed Frankenstella ante-post for this, but her price has dried up like the ground, and I’m looking for a saver. I’ll take a flyer about RED FLYER staying the extra two furlongs after his excellent effort at the July Meeting. He blew the start last time, and that run can be ignored.

13:50 – Atalis Bay 
14:25 – Chaldean
15:00 – Deauville Legend
15:35 – Mishriff
