Napoleons Casino And Restaurant Leeds Classified Stakes (Div I)

Copper And Five shaped with real promise when runner-up last time out and has experience over today's trip and going, with his rating of 55 giving him a squeak against this field; yet to score in his last six starts, and a trainer firing at just 4% is the concern.

Winless in his last five starts, Inspiring Speeches does offer some encouragement with a third three starts back, though consecutive fourths since suggest he finds a way to be competitive without quite getting there; carrying 135 lb from stall 3, experience over today's trip and going at least removes unknowns.

Placed second three starts back and again four starts back, Little Ted arrives on a sharp 16-day turnaround with experience over today's trip and going, and our rating marks him as the one to beat here — though he remains winless in recent starts.

Winless in her last five starts, Rogers Dream nonetheless brings consistent placed form into this, including a third last time out and two fourths before that, with experience over today's trip and conditions working in her favour; 135 lb from stall two is the challenge.

Winless in her last six starts and rated just 44 officially, Top Gun Tina faces a stiff ask, though she has run over today's distance and going before and our rating of 50 offers a shade of encouragement; 58 days between runs is a query returning from stall four carrying 135 lb.
