We have a busy day’s racing on Monday with flat action from Ripon, Southwell and Windsor, live on Sky Sports Racing… <h3><strong>7.28 Windsor – Course specialist Amazonian Dream headlines</strong></h3><p><strong>Amazonian Dream</strong> headlines a field of 14 in a competitive <em>Fitzdares Sprint Series Handicap</em>.</p><p>The in-form Rod Milman stable turn out course specialist <strong>Amazonian Dream</strong> just one week after his first win since 2024.</p><p>He is up five pounds for that success and moves up in grade, however, the manner in which he won suggests he can remain competitive.</p><p>The very lightly-raced <strong>Regional Rock</strong> heads the opposition as he looks to go one better when narrowly going down by a neck at Doncaster last time out.</p><ul><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/racing/news/11068/13566848/ascot-kalpana-defeats-calandagan-in-king-george-vi-and-queen-elizabeth-stakes-battle">Kalpana defeats Calandagan in King George battle</a></strong></li><li><strong><a href="https://www.skysports.com/racing/news/12426/13562594/july-cup-billy-loughnane-steers-comanche-brave-to-glory">Billy Loughnane steers Comanche Brave to July Cup glory</a></strong></li></ul><p><strong>Sudden Flight</strong> has resumed his progress with newly fitted cheekpiece. He can challenge, aiming to get off the mark for the season.</p><h3><strong>3.00 Southwell – Impressive Frankel colt Sharp Move and Gregory's half-brother, Humphrey clash</strong></h3><p>Exciting, lightly raced four-year-old <strong>Sharp Move</strong> makes his highly anticipated return as he clashes with <strong>Humphrey</strong> in the <em>First Aid Training Novice Stakes</em>.</p><p>This Frankel colt put his debut well behind him when scoring by seven lengths at Newcastle last November, making him just about the one to beat with the potential to prove highly progressive at four.</p><p>However, <strong>Sharp Move</strong> faces stiff opposition from race-fit, well-bred, and unexposed types. <strong>Humphrey</strong> was beaten at odds-on when looking much too green during his Sandown run last time.</p><p>He is a half-brother to Royal Ascot winner Gregory and likely has much more to offer with a run under his belt.</p><p>Kingman colt <strong>Turrent</strong> knuckled down well to win at Carlisle last month with the second coming out and winning well, as Wootton Bassett-colt <strong>Kokbastau</strong> was notably eye-catching on reappearance at Yarmouth. He can put that experience to good use here.</p><widget id="1"></widget><h3><strong>8.10 Ripon – Masked Warrior faces five in a trappy affair </strong></h3><p>The lightly raced <strong>Masked</strong> <strong>Warrior</strong> opposes five in a trappy renewal of the <em>City of Ripon Handicap</em>.</p><p>The William Haggas-trained three-year-old sets the standard having won impressively at Kempton, before finishing a creditable third in a competitive class two handicap at Chester.</p><p>He looks to capitalise now dropped in grade, but faces opposition in the form of the revitalised <strong>Beyond The Bar</strong> who bounced back when winning nicely at Catterick last time out.</p><p>Wathnan-owned <strong>Enchant</strong> could make marked improvement up in trip on handicap debut, as the unexposed <strong>Noelan</strong> <strong>Star</strong> should put his Royal Ascot blip behind him to prove relatively well treated off a mark of 90.</p> <widget id="2"></widget><h3><strong>Best of the rest</strong></h3><p><strong>6.30 Ripon</strong> – <strong>Towelontheterrace</strong> bids to defy a penalty.</p><p><strong>7.05 Ripon</strong> – Half-sister to Native Warrior, <strong>Prosperity</strong> makes debut.</p><p><strong>4.30 Southwell</strong> – Well thought of <strong>Rising Tiger</strong> aims to get off the mark.</p><p><strong>5.00 Southwell</strong> – Unexposed <strong>Spaceman</strong> headlines competitive handicap.</p><p><strong>6.20 Windsor</strong> – <strong>Harry Knows</strong> brings solid form.</p>
