LALA LAND

Jess is living La Vita loco with her super stayer

- 

here a fortnight ago. The three-year-old looks open to progress so stands to defy a 7lb penalty.

NEVER LET GO (2.25) should seize the EBF Dick Hern Stakes at Haydock for Ed Walker.

The filly was a stellar third to Victoria Harbour in a 1m 2f Listed race at Goodwood in May.

She was even better in June when brushing aside Cajole in the Sandringham over a mile at Ascot. The three-year-old is still improving so can deny some classy rivals back up in grade.

HAATEM (3.00) looks primed to stay ahead of the game in the Rose Of Lancaster Stakes.

Richard Hannon's bay hit new heights when caning Galen in the Wolferton at Royal Ascot in June. He ran well again when third to Never So Brave in the Group Two Summer Mile there.

The four-year-old remains in form so should bag a tight Group Three over a further two-and-a-half furlongs.

ROYAL VELVET (3.07) looks smooth in the Moatwood Gin Handicap at Newmarket.
