Timeform UK SmartPlays: Saturday June 8

Ryan Moore is fancied to score aboard Enrol.

Timeform's SmartPlays team head to both Haydock and Newmarket for Saturday's best bets...

Newmarket's opening maiden could well develop into a strong piece of form with several well-bred newcomers, notably Musical Comedy, Stalactite and Zarwaan, lining up against a couple that have shaped well on their debuts, namely Munjally and Gm Hopkins. We're going to side with experience and, of the aforementioned duo, the one fancied to land the spoils is Gm Hopkins, trained by John Gosden, who cost €120,000 as a yearling and is out of the useful mare Varsity. The two-year-old caught the eye in no uncertain terms on his racecourse bow at Newbury, slowly into stride but soon travelling well at the rear of the field prior to being hampered just as he was called on for his effort, keeping on strongly without being knocked about to take fourth. The suspicion is that, with a clear run, he could have won that day and he looks open to significant improvement with that experience under his belt. 

The William Haggas-trained Sun Central has won three times in his short career to date, taking a marked step forward when entering the winners' enclosure at Salisbury on his seasonal reappearance, and although he remains open to improvement we're going to take him on with the reopposing Castilo del Diablo, who finished four places behind him that day. A combination of rustiness and being caught out by a steady pace hindered Castilo del Diablo's chances but he caught the eye nonetheless, hitting the line with something still left in the tank. The step up to this trip will be ideal and he is taken to reverse the form with Sun Central on 5 lb better terms here. 

We return to Newmarket for our final selection, with Enrol fancied to land the 14:55. The four-year-old has improved with each outing, tasting success on her last three visits to the track, and the likelihood is that she will progress further still as she remains unexposed. Her reappearance win at Doncaster was particularly impressive and, with her outstanding trainer firing in winners across the country, she could well take some stopping in this six-furlong handicap.
