WILLIAM Haggas, who stole the show at the Ebor Festival by saddling five winners at York over the four-day meeting, lowers his sights this evening at Carlisle as the Newmarket trainer bids to extend his purple patch.

Haggas sends Moon Eyes to Cumbria to contest the ApolloBet Best Odds Guaranteed Maiden Stakes and Joe Fanning's mount has strong claims.

The three-year-old came up against useful-looking newcomer My Dad Syd at Doncaster last time out and had to settle for runner-up honours. Moon Eyes may find this event within her compass.

Jack Garritty, who is holding Tom Marquand at bay in the apprentice championship, got on the scoresheet at York last week thanks to impressive juvenile winner Mayfair Lady.

The Malton-based rider, who has since ridden a couple of winners at Sandown, can claim the Carlisle opener on nap selection Sandgate in the ApolloBet Free Download App Apprentice Handicap.

The three-year-old, a Haydock winner three starts ago, subsequently finished an unlucky third at Ayr. Although slightly disappointing back at Haydock last time, Sandgate deserves the chance to bounce back in a race that contains more quantity than quality.

Garritty has other mounts with chances on the cards, not least Bimbo, likewise trained by his boss Richard Fahey, in the ApolloBet Fillies' Handicap.

Owned and bred by Lady Halifax, the three-year-old won at Newmarket in the summer. She is not the easiest to predict, but this trip of six furlongs suits her and the uphill finish will also be to her liking given that she was a winner at Pontefract last season.

Fatherly Friend may prove the solution to the ApolloBet New Customer Promotions Maiden Stakes.

Karl Burke's youngster is not ideally drawn, being wide from the rail in stall 12, but he showed a good level of ability on his debut to finish fourth at Haydock.

That outing will not have been wasted on him and he promises to be involved in the business end here. Burke yesterday won a Group 1 race at Deauville in France with Odeliz, who started at 35-1.

With more than 20 winners to his credit, including a couple at listed level, Paddy Mathers is enjoying a fine season.

The Malton jockey can add to his tally aboard Mr Cool Cash in the ApolloBet Worldwide Lotteries Handicap.

Trained near Wetherby by Richard Guest, Mr Cool Cash has been in cracking form lately, winning three of his last four starts, most recently at Thirsk last week. A 6lb penalty may not prevent him obliging again.

Devious Spirit is selected to break his maiden in the ApolloBet Online Games And Casino Handicap.

David Nolan's mount finished a creditable second at Windsor a fortnight ago and may be capable of going one better stepping up a little more in distance.

Joanna Mason, who has been in tremendous form lately, makes the long journey to Brighton today to ride Supa Seeker in the TPCT Amateur Riders Handicap.

Mason, a grand-daughter of Sheriff Hutton trainer Mick Easterby, who has supplied her with three wins lately on Tapis Libre, scored on Supa Seeker on this course earlier this month.

Tony Carroll's nine-year-old has since finished fourth under a very inexperienced rider at Windsor, but back at Brighton and with Mason on board, he is fancied to bounce back.

Mark Johnston sends Silent Dreamer all the way from North Yorkshire to contest the Mears Ltd Brighton And Hove Maiden Fillies Stakes.

Franny Norton's mount was a beaten favourite at Beverley last time when tackling an extended seven furlongs. It may suit her better at six furlongs this afternoon.

Also worth noting are the promising Reetaj (4-00) and the consistent Port Lairge (5-30), a previous course and distance winner who will be partnered by 3lb claimer Michael Murphy.
