GLADIADORA (3.00 Salisbury, nap)
Clocked a big personal best when winning very nicely at Bath earlier this month. She was always up with the pace and showed a good turn of foot to pull nicely clear of her rivals. That effort came over this mile on quick ground and the handicapper has been more than fair with a 2lb hike in the weights. Taylor Fisher stays on board and his 3lb claim will come in handy.
CROWN OF LIGHT (2.30 Salisbury, nb).
Can shine under William Buick. The Norwegian has a decent strike-rate when riding for trainer William Knight and they team up with this youngster who scored nicely here last time out.

ANJO BONITA (4.45 Beverley, treble)
Hit the crossbar when second at Pontefract last time and saves her best for this trip. She has dropped below her last winning mark and can strike.
TORALOU (8.25 Ffos Las, Lucky 15)
She is lightly raced for her age and went close in a better race than this at Windsor last time. A 1lb rise in the weights gives her a big say.

Templegate's tips: ‘Impressive' 33-1 York Ebor outsider screams value plus 14-1 and 10-1 ante-post picks
TEMPLEGATE has been in cracking form this season and can't wait to get stuck into the awesome four-day Ebor Festival at York. Here, he picks out three ante-post punts he's more than happy to back now in the hope of hoovering up maximum value. 1 The racing, which will be shown live on ITV1, kicks off on Wednesday with the blockbuster Juddmonte International - where we have a surprise runner supplemented for £85,000. And the big race of the week is Saturday's Ebor handicap - which is where our man's first pick runs… Templegate's York Ebor ante-post tips EBOR (Sat) Trainer Paddy Twomey has done us a couple of favours already this season (Carmers was a lovely Royal Ascot winner for us) and looks to have a solid each-way chance with LA ISLA MUJERES in the Ebor. This Lope De Vega mare is number 18 in the entries so will get a run and has been operating in Listed and Group races with some success since leaving Ralph Beckett's yard in 2024 to cross the Irish Sea. She was an impressive Roscommon winner this time last year and looked in good nick when coming back from eight months off for a close-up second at Down Royal last time. She saw out two miles there but has more than enough pace for this shorter trip where stamina is always an asset anyway. She's hovering around the 33-1 mark which looks too big for a mare that still has potential to improve at the age of five and Twomey is an excellent target trainer. She has some more fancy entries like the Irish St Leger later this season so must be showing plenty at home. They will all have to shift to beat last year's unlucky fifth Hipop De Loire who is 7-2 favourite for Willie Mullins but my hope has plenty going for her each-way. NUNTHORPE (Fri) JM JUNGLE looks a very fair 14-1 for the Nunthorpe on the back of his excellent victory in the Group 2 King George at Glorious Goodwood. This was a clear career best for John and Sean Quinn's five-year-old who enjoyed the quick ground and hit the line really strongly despite winning by only a neck. It's no secret that the current sprinting division is full of horses that are more slow boat than Usain Bolt and the Nunthorpe looks ripe for an upset. JM Jungle's last five visits to York have produced a big handicap win and four places in hot company, all over this trip. There's every chance he'll keep that good run going. JUDDMONTE INTERNATIONAL (Wed) FRENCH raider DARYZ is an interesting contender and looks a big price at 10-1 in a couple of places, with some bookies offering just 7s. This exciting son of Sea The Stars has yet to taste defeat in four outings and took the step up into Group 2 company in his stride at St Cloud last time. Although he's won with some juice in the ground, connections are adamant he wants a quick surface and that's likely to be served up at York. Francis-Henri Grafford knows what he's doing with a talented horse and this improving three-year-old gets weight from his older rivals and can be backed now with three places still on offer. Connections have confirmed him as a planned runner and he could be facing less than the current eight rivals on the day. . Remember to gamble responsibly

Tony Adams urges Mikel Arteta to strip Martin Odegaard of captaincy in brutal assessment
Martin Odegaard has been Arsenal captain for the last three years but Mikel Arteta has now been told to make a change with the Norwegian's successor having already been picked out Tony Adams has demanded that Mikel Arteta AXE Martin Odegaard as Arsenal captain if he wants to win the Premier League. The Norwegian playmaker was appointed Gunners skipper ahead of the 2022/23 campaign. He became the first man to hold the armband full-time since former captain Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang was stripped of the role. And Odegaard's appointment has coincided with a period of success for the club having gone close to winning the Premier League in each of the past three seasons. Despite that, former captain Adams believes it is now time for Arteta to hand the armband to someone else - and believes Rice is the perfect candidate. He said: 'He's got a really big call to make this year and for me he hasn't done it. 'The call is to make Declan Rice the captain. I think Declan is my kind of captain, and it might free Odegaard up to play with a bit more freedom. "Every now and again as a manager, you have to put someone who reflects you, who reflects the football club that you think can actually take you to the next level.' And should Arteta make the move to appoint Rice, Adams believes that it could bring Arsenal towards finally winning the Premier League for the first time in 20 years. Adams added: 'I'm just saying he's got an opportunity this year to actually turn into a winner. 'To win league titles, you have to be a [Jurgen] Klopp, you have to be a [Sir Alex] Ferguson. You have to lead by example, you have to be a winner, you have to go about your business. And that reflects in your captain. 'And I'm seeing Declan Rice as a captain but I'm saying to Arteta: 'Come on, step up now. It's your time to be a winning manager and a fantastic manager, because you're not going to win the league with Odegaard as captain.' 'You've got someone in there who's going to play every game all season, that's going to encourage people to come in and lay the foundations of a title-winning team. Declan Rice can do that, Odegaard can't. Come on Arteta, make him captain.' Despite Arteta sticking with Odegaard, the Spaniard hasn't been afraid to make changes to other aspects of his squad. The North London side have spent just under £200m this summer - Martin Zubimendi, Viktor Gyokeres and Noni Madueke all among the headline arrivals. Arsenal get their latest Premier League campaign underway on Sunday as they take on Manchester United at Old Trafford.
