---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (2) (3/1 -9%) Epsom Faithfull |
3/1(-9%) | (2) Epsom Faithfull 3/1, Nine wins from 34 Flat runs. 13/2, improved on recent efforts to win 11-runner handicap at this course (7f, AW) 13 days ago, quickening to lead late. Can go well again. 3lb rise for latest win still leaves her well treated on old form; still unexposed over 1m. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (12/1 -140%) Fox Power |
12/1(-140%) | (5) Fox Power 12/1, First run since leaving David Simcock when sixth of 9 in handicap (10/3) at this C&D (AW) 29 days ago. Likely to come on for latest outing and he's well treated on old form. Well handicapped, but has only managed to win one of his last 29 starts; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (9/4 +50%) Great Blasket |
9/4(+50%) | (8) Great Blasket 9/4, Three wins from 5 runs last year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. Good third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 2/1) 7 days ago, conceding first run. Enters calculations. Done well since switched to AW; high on list provided sharper test doesn't find him out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (20/1 +0%) Arika |
20/1(+0%) | (9) Arika 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 10 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Needs to up his game. 0-5; up a furlong on Polytrack debut and plenty to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (16/1 +0%) Cosmos Raj |
16/1(+0%) | (3) Cosmos Raj 16/1, Latest win at Newcastle in December. Eleventh of 14 in handicap (20/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 12 days ago. Visor back on. Others preferred. 1-15 on AW; return to 1m should suit, but most of his best AW form has come on Tapeta. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (16/1 -60%) Outrace |
16/1(-60%) | (7) Outrace 16/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 15/2) 45 days ago. Must improve. Tough sort, but a sharp 1m like this may be an insufficient test for him. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (9/2 -50%) Sandy Paradise |
9/2(-50%) | (1) Sandy Paradise 9/2, C&D winner. Creditable 1¼ lengths third of 11 to Epsom Faithfull in handicap at this course (7f, AW, 6/1) 13 days ago. Worth considering. C&D winner who is proving most consistent on the AW; should again go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (33/1 +0%) Mr Fustic |
33/1(+0%) | (4) Mr Fustic 33/1, Two wins from 6 runs last year. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (8f, good, 28/1). Off 159 days. Returns with plenty to prove. Winner of four of his last six starts on the AW; has gone well fresh in the past. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (11/2 +8%) Monopolise |
11/2(+8%) | (6) Monopolise 11/2, 7/1, very good third of 6 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 18 days ago. Well treated if he can build on that. Hung right-handed throughout when third here last time which would be a concern. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Returning to 1m shouldn't inconvenience Epsom Faithfull and she can go well in her attempt to follow up last month's 7f success at this venue. Sandy Paradise was a close third in that race and enters the equation with a 3lb pull this time. However, GREAT BLASKET appeals most at this trip and on these terms, so shades the vote off just 2lb above his last winning mark. Cosmos Raj completes the shortlist.
GREAT BLASKET is still going the right way and probably would have won at Wolverhampton last time had he enjoyed a clear passage, so he's worth chancing to gain compensation. Epsom Faithfull did well to get up late here recently, so she's an obvious danger and Monopolise is a threat from a lenient mark.
Preference is for GREAT BLASKET who did best of those held up when a close third at Wolverhampton a week ago.

1st (6) (12/1 +64%) My Mate Mike |
12/1(+64%) | (6) My Mate Mike 12/1, 66/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 21 days ago. Draw could have been kinder. Others are preferred. Placed on two occasions but the rest of his form is far less convincing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (13/2 -30%) Sir Titan |
13/2(-30%) | (1) Sir Titan 13/2, Won 12-runner handicap at this course (1m) 19 days ago, all out. Only nudged up 2 lb and Tony Carroll won the race last year. Neck success under Mollly Gunn here last month, ending a long losing sequence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/2 +71%) Dors Toyboy |
7/2(+71%) | (3) Dors Toyboy 7/2, C&D winner. 15/2, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 21 days ago, weakening when hampered. Had reached the frame on his 2 outings prior to that. Better than bare result last time; dual C&D scorer who is on a handy mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (18/1 +10%) Port Noir |
18/1(+10%) | (9) Port Noir 18/1, 22/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) 13 days ago. Bit more needed. Ran respectably returned to 7f last time but has registered most wins at shorter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (15/2 -7%) Dulcet Spirit |
15/2(-7%) | (2) Dulcet Spirit 15/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Chepstow in July. Might have needed her last outing here after a 3-month break and the booking of Rossa Ryan catches the eye. Needs checking out in the betting. Poised to bounce back with Rossa Ryan up for first time; won over C&D early last year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (6/1 +0%) Outreach |
6/1(+0%) | (12) Outreach 6/1, In good form at Wolverhampton lately, including a 7f win in December. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap there (7f) 14 days ago. Claims if as effective around here. Has shown most of his AW form at Wolverhampton; change of venue is the question mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (14/1 -75%) Daring Guest |
14/1(-75%) | (8) Daring Guest 14/1, C&D winner. 33/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f) in October. Off 99 days. Cheekpieces back on. Won over C&D in August 2022; raced only twice since; check the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (17/2 -6%) Divine Messenger |
17/2(-6%) | (5) Divine Messenger 17/2, Three-time C&D winner last year. Not seen to best effect when below-form fifth of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Kempton (7f) 44 days ago. Enters calculations. Four-time course winner but needs to improve on his two efforts this winter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (7/1 -155%) Rivas Rob Roy |
7/1(-155%) | (7) Rivas Rob Roy 7/1, Four-time course winner and went close to a fifth over 1m here last week, going down by a head. Obvious chance off the same mark. Went close over 1m here last week; future mark is 3lb higher; return to 7f is the negative. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (14/1 +13%) Muy Muy Guapo |
14/1(+13%) | (4) Muy Muy Guapo 14/1, 12/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at this course (6f) 76 days ago, very slowly away. His potential for missing the break means he always comes with risks. Inconsistent and still a maiden; not sure what to expect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (28/1 -250%) Perfect Focus |
28/1(-250%) | (10) Perfect Focus 28/1, Blinkered first time, fourth of 10 in handicap (11/2) at this course (6f, AW) 33 days ago, never nearer. Return to 7f could suit. Still a maiden but shaped encouragingly in first-time blinkers on latest outing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (11) (10/1 +38%) Beauen Arrows |
10/1(+38%) | (11) Beauen Arrows 10/1, 5/1, ninth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 44 days ago. Maiden who has raced mainly at Kempton; something to prove. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
A few of these are old rivals the likes of Dors Toyboy, Daring Guest and Rivas Rob Roy can all be fancied to have a say if they give their running. However, it may pay to stick with last-time-out winner SIR TITAN, who should have no issues whatsoever with dropping back to this distance after winning over 1m here last month. A 2lb higher mark is hardly insurmountable for the selection.
RIVAS ROB ROY turns out again before a 3 lb rise for last week's near miss over 1m here kicks in and could be the way to go if still as effective over 7f. Recent course scorer Sir Titan and Mark Usher's Outreach also arrive in form and are respected, while Dulcet Spirit is well capable in this grade on her day and needs keeping an eye on in the betting under Rossa Ryan.
Rivas Rob Roy is ahead of the assessor but a solid alternative is DORS TOYBOY, while Dulcet Spirit is also interesting.

1st (3) (1/2 +60%) Rascal Recknell |
1/2(+60%) | (3) Rascal Recknell 1/2, Twice-raced colt. 10/11, first run since leaving Owen Burrows when good second of 14 at Kempton (7f) 51 days ago, worn down late on. Big shout. Placed in both starts and beaten just a neck last time; big chance if settling better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (9/4 -63%) Influence |
9/4(-63%) | (1) Influence 9/4, Thrice-raced gelding. 4/6, second of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 28 days ago. 7f will suit and he's got to go close. Second in all three starts at Wolverhampton; optimism for the longer trip on pedigree. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (40/1 -100%) Sighter |
40/1(-100%) | (6) Sighter 40/1, Twice-raced filly. Off 4 months, sixth of 7 at this course (6f, AW, 12/1) 18 days ago. Will be better off in handicaps. Out of the frame in both starts and may be one for handicaps after this. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (25/1 -178%) Superb Force |
25/1(-178%) | (4) Superb Force 25/1, 170,000 gns half-brother to 3 winners, including high-class winner up to 1½m Best Solution (2-y-o 6f-1m winner) and very smart 2-y-o 7f-1¼m winner El Bodegon. Well-backed 3/1, eighth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (6f, 3/1) 16 days ago, still green. Out of the frame in both starts, but bred to be useful; should have a bigger effort in him. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (16/1 -60%) Marching Mac |
16/1(-60%) | (2) Marching Mac 16/1, 85,000 gns yearling, cheap cast-off from Rabbah Bloodstock having fetched just 7,500 gns in October. Invincible Army colt. Half-brother to useful winner up to 5.5f Punita Arora and 1m winner Sangria. Interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting with others from the yard. Something to like on pedigree but only of interest if attracting support on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (40/1 -100%) Two B Tanned |
40/1(-100%) | (7) Two B Tanned 40/1, Saddler's Rock filly. Half-sister to several winners, including 1m-10.4f winner Dubawi Dancer and 1¼m winner Srinagar Girl. Not an obvious one on paper first time up but respected given the yard. Bred to come into her own over further; stable's newcomers usually better for a run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (80/1 -60%) Tommy The Gun |
80/1(-60%) | (5) Tommy The Gun 80/1, Once-raced gelding. 40/1, tenth of 12 in maiden at Kempton (6f) on debut 16 days ago. Well beaten on Kempton debut; stable has stronger chances elsewhere. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Runner-up in each of his three previous starts, INFLUENCE has done very little wrong and sets the standard in this ordinary-looking maiden. Rascal Recknell showed stacks of promise at Kempton last month on just his second career start, so is second choice based on his obvious potential. Marching Mac, a stablemate of the selection, has something to recommend him on pedigree and is also worth a betting check.
INFLUENCE will be suited by 7f and just shades the vote over Rascal Recknell, who surely has races in him also.
This can go to RASCAL RECKNELL who must have a fine chance if settling better than when narrowly beaten at Kempton last time.

1st (7) (4/1 +11%) Something To Do |
4/1(+11%) | (7) Something To Do 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden who despite looking very raw matched previous best when second of 7 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 2 days ago. 6 lb out of weights on this occasion but he could yet have more to offer. Down in trip. Runner-up at Wolverhampton on Monday and Kempton on Wednesday; could go well again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (15/8 +37%) Bradman |
15/8(+37%) | (5) Bradman 15/8, Career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 4/11) 4 days ago by ½ length from Something To Do. In the mix again under a penalty. Bids for a hat-trick, but a 6lb penalty and shorter trip on a faster track pose a question. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (11/2 -10%) Bas Bleu |
11/2(-10%) | (2) Bas Bleu 11/2, Masar filly who has showed fair form on 2 of 3 starts in novice/maiden company, third of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 10/1) 17 days ago. May do better again now handicapping provided she learns to settle. Third at Wolverhampton last time; up in trip and open to further progress now handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (7/2 -17%) Khamsin |
7/2(-17%) | (1) Khamsin 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden who, having been gelded/off 3 months, matched previous form when fourth of 6 on handicap debut at Southwell (8.1f) 22 days ago. May tighten up for that run. Form of latest fourth on handicap debut has since been boosted; major player up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (9/1 +36%) Compton Bay |
9/1(+36%) | (6) Compton Bay 9/1, Bit below form fifth of 9 in handicap (13/2) at Kempton (7f) 16 days ago, never on terms following a tardy start. Present mark doesn't look beyond him on pick of his form and step up in trip here may help. 0-9 and needs the longer trip to bring about improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (8/1 -7%) Claxton Bay |
8/1(-7%) | (4) Claxton Bay 8/1, 15/8, respectable second of 6 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 23 days ago, ridden over 1f out and keeping on. Should give another good account. In the frame in four of seven starts, but this trip looked too far on penultimate outing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Bradman arrives on the back of a workmanlike victory over 1m4f at Wolverhampton four days ago and should be be able to make his presence felt again, but the combination of the drop in distance and a 6lb penalty will make life tougher for Charlie Fellowes' gelding. With that in mind, preference is for the class-dropping KHAMSIN, who ran with promise in fourth on his handicap debut over a mile at Southwell last month. Bas Bleu and Claxton Bay appeal most of the remainder.
A winner at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start, LIVINTHELIFE likely would have benefited from a stronger gallop when fourth at Kempton on Wednesday and, back down in trip, he's fancied to be seen in a better light. The hat-trick seeking Bradman and old rival Something To Do are others fancied to figure.
Preference is for KHAMSIN whose latest fourth at Southwell is working out very well, while he shapes as though this trip will suit.

1st (5) (7/4 +7%) The Craftymaster |
7/4(+7%) | (5) The Craftymaster 7/4, Thrived in staying handicaps in recent months, digging deep under pressure to bring up the hat-trick at Wolverhampton (16.5f) 2 weeks ago. Remains less exposed than most and he may yet have more to offer. Shortlisted. Bids for a four-timer and has a solid chance if as effective back on Polytrack. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (14/1 -100%) Foinix |
14/1(-100%) | (6) Foinix 14/1, Visored for 1st time, very good second of 8 in handicap (18/1) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 15 days ago, headway over 2f out and running on. Needs to build on that now. Second at Chelmsford last time; 4lb below his sole winning mark and could play a part. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (3/1 +25%) Rolypolymoly |
3/1(+25%) | (2) Rolypolymoly 3/1, 50/1 and blinkered for 1st time, very good second of 9 in handicap at this course (10f, AW) 9 days ago, hanging left 1f out and keeping on. That may not prove his limit for this yard stepping back up in trip. Second over 1m2f here last time; dual hurdles winner, but unraced beyond 1m4f on the Flat. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (5/2 +17%) Easy Equation |
5/2(+17%) | (3) Easy Equation 5/2, First run since leaving J. S. Moore when creditable second of 12 in handicap (9/4) at Southwell (16.5f) 43 days ago, conceding first run. Worth a second look here on the back of that. Not prolific (3-37), but he could go well having been placed in both starts over C&D. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (40/1 -186%) Duveen |
40/1(-186%) | (7) Duveen 40/1, Maiden who ran below best when fifth of 8 in handicap (6/1) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 15 days ago, finding little. Others more persuasive. Plenty to find with a couple of these on recent efforts and is now 0-15; look elsewhere. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (12/1 -100%) Winklevi |
12/1(-100%) | (4) Winklevi 12/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. 10/3, fifth of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) in September, headed home turn and weakening straight. Comes here operating from career-low mark if 5-month break has perked him up. Yard amongst the winners. 5lb below his last winning mark and he may enjoy the run of the race out in front. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (22/1 -10%) Arthalot |
22/1(-10%) | (1) Arthalot 22/1, Ran best race for a while when fourth on the Flat at Bath (13f) back in the autumn but essentially disappointed over hurdles since. Others preferred. 1-25 under rules and beaten miles on only AW start; easily passed over. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ROLYPOLYMOLY was making his first start on the Flat for this stable when finishing a running-on second over an inadequate 1m2f last month and, back up to 2m off an unchanged mark, he may be able to get his blinkered-head home in front. The Craftymaster rates as the main danger to the selection but he will need to defy a career-high mark in order to take the gold medal. Easy Equation made a pleasing start to life with Charlie Fellowes when finishing second over an extended 2m at Southwell on his latest outing and is likely to enter the reckoning.
THE CRAFTYMASTER has gone from strength-to-strength in staying handicaps in recent weeks, digging deep under pressure to bring up the hat-trick at Wolverhampton 2 weeks ago. He gets the vote to defy the assessor again and complete the 4-timer. Easy Equation produced a solid first effort for his new yard when second at Southwell recently and he's feared, ahead of Winklevi and Rolypolymoly.
Despite still having to prove himself on Polytrack, THE CRAFTYMASTER (nap) is taken to extend his winning sequence to four.

1st (7) (11/5 +45%) Sassy Redhead |
11/5(+45%) | (7) Sassy Redhead 11/5, C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Respectable 1¼ lengths second of 10 to Nubough in handicap (9/4) at this C&D (AW) 9 days ago, hampered early. Well drawn again and big shout. Loves it here; found only Nubough too good nine days ago; may well reverse the placings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (6/1 +14%) Miss Moonshine |
6/1(+14%) | (5) Miss Moonshine 6/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 11 runs last year. Latest win here in December. 9/2, respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 26 days ago. Not ruled out. C&D winner on New Year's Eve; usual 7lb claimer now replaced by Hollie Doyle; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (8/1 +80%) Nordic Glory |
8/1(+80%) | (6) Nordic Glory 8/1, 5-time course winner. Latest win here in October. 25/1, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 18 days ago. Others make more appeal. Seems to have gone off the boil, last of all at Wolverhampton 18 days ago; needs a revival. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (11/1 -57%) Savannah Smiles |
11/1(-57%) | (10) Savannah Smiles 11/1, C&D winner. Good second of 9 in minor event (15/2) at this C&D (AW) 7 days ago. Leniently treated and could get involved again with a clear run. Beaten a head here last week and won over C&D off 8lb higher last summer; big chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (7/1 -110%) Nubough |
7/1(-110%) | (1) Nubough 7/1, Won 10-runner handicap (10/1) at this C&D (AW) 9 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Sassy Redhead, kept up to work. Carries penalty. Not an obvious sort for the follow-up. Ended two-year drought over C&D nine days ago; penalty makes this a tougher assignment. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (12/1 -20%) Lion Ring |
12/1(-20%) | (8) Lion Ring 12/1, One win from 38 Flat runs. Winner at Chelmsford City in October. Creditable 2 lengths fifth of 10 to Nubough in handicap at this C&D (AW, 7/1) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not discounted. 1-38; typically showed bright speed when fifth over C&D last week; place prospects. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (14/1 +30%) Captain Wentworth |
14/1(+30%) | (9) Captain Wentworth 14/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap (25/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 21 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. 14-race maiden; has shaped on last two starts as if requiring 7f+. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (4/1 +33%) Vitalline |
4/1(+33%) | (4) Vitalline 4/1, Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Good third of 7 in handicap (10/3) at Southwell (7.1f) 15 days ago. Proving consistent and is likely to be on the premises again. Running creditably at present, well treated on old form and drop back to 6f could suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (3) (16/1 -100%) Kitbag |
16/1(-100%) | (3) Kitbag 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. Sixth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 10/3) 15 days ago. Usually reliable, so no surprise if he's back on his game. Unplaced three times since a win, latest effort a poor one; needs to get back on track. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
BOOM BOOM POW gave the impression that her turn to be in the winner's enclosure may be imminent when being collared close home over 6f at Chelmsford most recently and, off an unchanged mark, she looks sure to make her presence felt once more. Last-time-out winner Nubough warrants consideration, but a 4lb penalty asks another question of him, while Savannah Smiles is taken to fill the frame after an admirable second-placed finish off the same mark over C&D last week.
Having scored over C&D in December, SASSY REDHEAD wasn't seen to best effect when second (to Nubough) here recently and, if more goes her way from the ideal draw, she could get back to winning ways. Several others arrive in form but Boom Boom Pow and Savannah Smiles could emerge as the main dangers.
In receipt of weight all round, SAVANNAH SMILES gets the verdict, with Sassy Redhead second choice and Vitalline also feared.

6/1(+8%) | (3) Mick's Spirit 6/1, Four-time C&D winner. 9/2, fifth of 6 in handicap over C&D (AW) 18 days ago. Visor back on. Same mark as 5f AW win in October; ran flat with visor off latest; chance with it back on. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (11/2 -38%) Darlo Pride |
11/2(-38%) | (8) Darlo Pride 11/2, In good form since the autumn, winning 3, including over C&D. Also second over C&D just before Christmas and enough in his latest Wolverhampton fourth to think he's still in form. Blossomed in AW handicaps; consistent in defeat since latest win (C&D). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (16/1 +0%) The Defiant |
16/1(+0%) | (1) The Defiant 16/1, Three-time C&D winner. Last of 5 in handicap (10/1) at Brighton (5.3f, heavy) when last seen in October. Might be best watched this time. Three C&D wins; can go well fresh and 4lb lower than latest win last June; not ruled out. |

4th (6) (2/1 +56%) Glamorous Express |
2/1(+56%) | (6) Glamorous Express 2/1, Course winner over 6f in November. 11/2, creditable third of 8 in C&D handicap since nearest finish. Respected. Has had just 3 AW runs but won over 6f here in November and good late work over C&D since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (11/2 +45%) Pablo Del Pueblo |
11/2(+45%) | (7) Pablo Del Pueblo 11/2, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Bit below form third of 8 in handicap over C&D 9 days ago, left poorly placed. Three sprint wins on this track; fair claims on his close 2nd over C&D at Christmas. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (8/1 +0%) Sir Rodneyredblood |
8/1(+0%) | (5) Sir Rodneyredblood 8/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 14 runs last year. Latest win at Chelmsford in December. 12/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 23 days ago. Multiple AW wins, three here; mostly kept to 6f of late; squeak on 5f form last winter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (18/1 -200%) La Roca Del Fuego |
18/1(-200%) | (2) La Roca Del Fuego 18/1, C&D winner. Failed to fire on turf at the start of last summer. As a result he's dropped to a good mark ahead of a return to his favoured AW but it's possible he'll need this after 7 months off. C&D winner; down to good mark but lightly raced of late and off since last June. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (13/2 -160%) Thank The Lord |
13/2(-160%) | (4) Thank The Lord 13/2, Three wins from 13 runs last year. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f, 16/5) 43 days ago, doing too much too soon. Interesting back at 5f from a handy draw. First 6f win at Chelmsford in December; latest 5f run came in a lower grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
PABLO DEL PUEBLO was third in a higher grade over C&D nine days ago and a reproduction of that level of form would give him a big chance in a race of this nature. Sir Rodneyredblood failed to fire last time but is a player based on his previous success at Chelmsford, while Thank The Lord and Darlo Pride are also noted.
THANK THE LORD is well drawn for a prominent racer and can strike for the second time this winter. Glamorous Express has taken well to AW recently and is second choice ahead of Darlo Pride.
Preference is for GLAMOROUS EXPRESS who has taken well to Polytrack and surely has another race in him on this surface
Ths is the racecard key.

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.
There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.
The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.
Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.
In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.
Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
