1.58 Haydock: Condotti (nap)
Most of these contenders are pretty much exposed, and none have impressive win strike-rates, so it is possible this is the race Condotti can finally break his maiden.
He hasn’t earned a Timeform 'squiggle', despite being placed several times, and ran one of his best races when second at Chester in heavy ground last time out. If reproducing that effort here, he could finally break his duck.
It looks like Hugo Palmer has been scouring the country for a rider for him, and has engaged useful apprentice Donagh Murphy for his first ride for the yard, which looks a positive move.

4.18 Haydock: U Sure Do
This is a good race, and although Tim Easterby’s gelding has pretty unconvincing recent form figures, which are unflattering, but he may be worth risking at a price.
U Sure Do could arguably have each of his last three runs upgraded, in particular last time in the Ladbrokes Ayr Bronze Cup Handicap at Ayr, where he had to tack across from the middle of the track early on in the race, and beat most of his rivals, who were still on the less favoured side.
He has a good draw here in stall one, and has quickly arrived on a mark below the one he was winning off as recently as May.
4.45 Newmaket: Go Rimbaud
Go Rimbaud has won twice this season, and has generally been a consistent improver for the Gosden team over the summer.
His latest win came over an extended mile, and his latest efforts over a slightly shorter trip seem to suggest he might be ready for a slight step up in trip, so nine furlongs could be ideal.
A strong pace, which is not guaranteed, would be ideal, but the first-time blinkers applied last time seemed to help him finish a good second from a prominent position, so I expect Robert Havlin to adopt the same tactics here. He looks a solid option.
