Timeform UK SmartPlays: Friday August 7

Future Empire - 16:00 Musselburgh

Future Empire has generally acquitted himself with credit at a higher grade than this, and he may be able to take advantage of his handy age allowance on his first go in a handicap. Mighty Yar should be spot on following a pair of comeback runs and he is feared, ahead of Yorkidding and Pressure Point.

Top of The Bank - 18:55 Haydock

Top of The Bank was beaten only by one at York who has since gone very close in a Group 2 and he could be the way to go on his handicap debut, with Cool Silk Boy needing to transfer his big improvement on fibresand back over to turf now. Justice Rock is also interesting off a low mark on his first go in a nursery.

Wordcraft - 19:55 Newmarket

Things didn't go Wordcraft's way when she surrendered her unbeaten record here last time but she lost little caste in defeat nevertheless. The form of that race is working out well and this unexposed filly, who holds pattern-race entries, should prove hard to beat with the step up to a mile expected to unlock further improvement. Nancy From Nairobi looks solid but the promising Floriss is feared most.
