CHIEF MANKATO (7.10 Windsor, nap)
Jack Channon's sprinter has been in great nick, winning nicely at Chepstow two starts ago before an unlucky third behind a couple of today's rivals over C&D last time. He was checked in his run before flashing home late for third. He is now 4lb better off with the winner, Badri, and he should get a strong pace to aim at.
JOHN L SULLIVAN (3.00 Ayr, nb)
Caught the eye when third behind the re-opposing Jannas Journey over a mile at this track last time. He travelled like the winner but ran out of gas late. He can turn the tables over this shorter trip.
SEA THE WONDER (5.22 Kempton, treble)
Ran disappointingly at Newbury but it was in a much stronger race than this. She won well on her debut at Chelmsford and will be happier back on the all-weather.
DWINDLING FUNDS (4.35 Ayr)
Looks good for the Lucky 15. He has been on a roll, winning over C&D and at Hamilton, and he still looks ahead of his mark.

Dillian Whyte's ex-coach finally reveals story behind viral clip of him hilariously drowning boxer with water in corner
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) MARK TIBBS has finally revealed the hilarious story behind the viral clip of him almost drowning Dillian Whyte with water in the corner. Tibbs spent four years and 11 unbeaten fights with Whyte before their split in 2020. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 6 Trainer Mark Tibbs on SunSport's No Glove Lost episode 6 Tibbs infamously drowned Dillian Whyte in the corner 6 The clip soon went viral The final bout the two had together was in Saudi Arabia against 6ft 7in Polish veteran Mariusz Wach - where Whyte laboured to a points win. But perhaps the most memorable moment of the bout was Whyte's reaction to Tibbs going overboard with the water in the corner. The clip went viral and still remains a classic boxing meme to this day. But Tibbs - who joined SunSport's latest No Glove Lost episode ahead of Whyte's fight against Moses Itauma - has explained what really happened. READ MORE IN boxing Itauma vs Whyte All the details you need as British heavyweights clash in Saudi The esteemed trainer had spotted an unwelcome character in their corner trying to have a conversation with Whyte in between rounds. So Tibbs was instructing his assistant Xavier Miller to get rid of the mystery man distracting his boxer. Preoccupied with doing so, he doused Whyte with a little too much water, sparking the iconic reaction. Tibbs told us: "We had to focus and concentrate and I live it in that corner and we had no security in the corner, it was pretty early days in Saudi then. 6 MOSES ITAUMA VS DILLIAN WHYTE: ALL THE DETAILS YOU NEED AHEAD OF HUGE HEAVYWEIGHT BOUT WATCH ITAUMA VS WHYTE LIVE ON DAZN CASINO SPECIAL - BEST CASINO BONUSES FROM £10 DEPOSITS "There was a man standing there, for one or two rounds in between rounds trying to have a conversation with Dillian. "So I went, f***ing - excuse my language - get rid of this geezer! What are you doing? Get hold of him, get rid of him. If he wins I will fight him Chisora | No Glove Lost: Itauma vs Whyte fight preview | Sun Sport "We had to focus. We had no security in the corner, not like over here. So that's what happened." Whyte's next bout would come almost a year later against Alexander Povetkin behind-closed-doors on the ground of Eddie Hearn's Matchroom HQ. But Whyte spent the training camp out in Portugal - and Tibbs was unable to leave his family back home in London. Whyte was knocked out by Povetkin but won the rematch before losing his WBC title challenge to Tyson Fury in 2022. After beating Jermaine Franklin in his comeback bout, he was then due to rematch Anthony Joshua in August 2023, eight years after losing to AJ by KO. But the fight was scrapped after Whyte returned an "adverse finding" in his pre-fight drug testing. The result was later put down to "contamination" with Whyte continuing his career in 2024 with low-key wins in Ireland and Gibraltar. Now, he returns against red-hot 20-year-old prospect Itauma in the sizzling Saudi heat on Saturday - live on DAZN PPV. Despite their split, Tibbs hopes Whyte can roll back the clock and upset 12-0 Itauma. Sat next to fellow guest panelists Derek Chisora - who has told SunSport his prediction for the fight - and Anthony Yarde, Tibbs said: "Dillian's a fighting man, he's a proud man and he's not phased by anything. 'He's genuinely not phased because of the life he's lead and the things he's gone through, which has made him the man he is. 'He's got lovely, lovely long arms and he's got a few tricks up his sleeve because of the experience and the people he's been around.' Itauma vs Whyte, August 16: Watch only on DAZN.

Former top jockey, 33, hailed as superhero after saving child from drowning ‘moments before going under'
The former jockey insists he did nothing extraordinary HEROIC ACT Former top jockey, 33, hailed as superhero after saving child from drowning 'moments before going under' Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A FORMER jockey has been hailed as a "superhero" after saving a child from drowning. George Chaloner, an ex-jockey who rode well over 200 winners on the Flat before his career was ended by injury at age of 25 in 2017, was holidaying in Filey in North Yorkshire last weekend. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Ex-jockey George Chaloner has been labelled a hero after saving a child from drowning Credit: Action Images - Reuters 2 Chaloner recalled how a lifeguard programme he took when he was younger helped him Credit: PA:Press Association But during the family holiday with his partner and kids, he witnessed a horrifying sight. The 33-year-old spotted a youngster - described as being eight or nine years old - out at sea who had been swept out by the strong currents. Chaloner swam out to sea to save them alongside another rescuer, recalling how the lad was "about to go under". He told RacingPost: "We went on holiday to Filey with the kids. We were at the end of Filey Bay, Reighton Sands, with the boys all day. We were just about ready to go and there were some shouts of 'help' from the sea. "Everyone stopped and looked but no-one went down. After ten or 15 seconds, I went down with another tall lad. A woman at the side of the sea said 'those kids are drowning, I can't swim'. "The kids were playing in the breakers but the tide had come in and pushed them into a pool and they'd got out of their depth. I couldn't touch the floor there. "There were two girls who were shouting 'my brother, my brother!' and pointing to a little lad about 15 or 20 feet away. "He was eight or nine and when I got to him he was being pulled out by the rip tide, on his last legs and about to go under. "I got him and swam him halfway back where someone had come out with a half-bodyboard and we got him on that and brought him back." The incident would not have been publicly known were it not for his partner, Daisy Jones, who shared a Facebook post and praise him as a "real-life superhero". Match of the Day host Gabby Logan cheers on jockey daughter, Lois, as she makes racing debut at Goodwood However, humble Chaloner insisted he had not done anything extraordinary, saying of his "hero" label: "I don't know about that. "You just hope that if it was one of your kids, somebody else would do it for them." Chaloner, graduate from the National Horseracing College recalled how lifeguard training when he was young helped him cope in the strong currents, despite having not swum properly in years. He added: "The kids were fine but they were jiggered and so was I. "I'm not as fit as I used to be and I'd legged it from the top of the beach, swum out about 50 feet and brought the lad back in. I was ready for a cup of tea! "It turned out two women we had seen were the kids' mothers, but they were deaf and didn't hear them shouting; they just saw them splashing about and didn't know they were in trouble." Chaloner's biggest win as a jockey came in the Wokingham Handicap and Northumberland Plate in 2014. The retired jockey now works as a stud manager at Cliff Stud, and will be in York next week as he serves the horseman there. He said: "I work closely with the vets and doctors and monitor the horses from the stableyard, to the pre-parade ring and so on and if there's any bother I'm the first one on the scene."
