1st (5) (13/2 +19%) Bearaway |
13/2(+19%) | (5) Bearaway 13/2, 15/2 and blinkered for 1st time, bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f). Off 93 days. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Seb Spencer. Starts out for new yard off a reduced mark; worth a market check. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (2/1 +40%) Crafter |
2/1(+40%) | (1) Crafter 2/1, In top form last 2 starts, winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 31 days ago, readily. Should continue to give a good account after another small rise. Fine runs over C&D the last twice and he's a leading contender once more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (14/1 +44%) Uzincso |
14/1(+44%) | (8) Uzincso 14/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2022. Eleventh of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 16/1) 69 days ago. Back up in trip. Well held on his last three starts and losing run looks set to continue. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (5/2 +0%) Forge Valley Lad |
5/2(+0%) | (9) Forge Valley Lad 5/2, 4-time course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 16/5) 6 days ago, conceding first run. Should be winning again soon. Two fine runs in defeat this month; should be in the thick of it once again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (100/1 -150%) Laurentia |
100/1(-150%) | (11) Laurentia 100/1, C&D winner. First run since leaving John E. Long when bit below form ninth of 15 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 22/1) 80 days ago, unable to sustain effort. C&D win in May but patchy since and she has the worst of the draw to contend with. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (13/2 +46%) Arenas Del Tiempo |
13/2(+46%) | (3) Arenas Del Tiempo 13/2, Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f, 11/2) 45 days ago. On a losing run; the odd good AW effort since September but others look stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (12/1 -167%) Thursday |
12/1(-167%) | (2) Thursday 12/1, Latest win here in August. 15/2, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Epsom (12f, soft) 84 days ago, needing lesser test. Respected back down in trip. Progressive this summer; more to prove on AW but there could be more in the tank. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (50/1 -52%) Cosmic View |
50/1(-52%) | (10) Cosmic View 50/1, Tenth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 33/1). Off 9 months. Well held in three AW runs early in the year; absent nine months; betting to guide. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (40/1 -100%) Ephyra |
40/1(-100%) | (6) Ephyra 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, tenth of 14 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f). Off 142 days. Up in trip. May do better on handicap debut. Potential improver now up in trip for handicap debut but she's not a solid option. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (28/1 +15%) Equuleus Star |
28/1(+15%) | (4) Equuleus Star 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, fourth of 6 in handicap at this course (12f, AW) 39 days ago. Pulled chance away upped to 1m4f on handicap debut last month; unexposed but needs more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (16/1 -33%) Gone Rogue |
16/1(-33%) | (7) Gone Rogue 16/1, 15/2, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f) 57 days ago. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Johnston. Of interest on his best form for C Johnston; sold 9,000gns in October; check betting. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
CRAFTER was a comfortable winner under Mason Paetel over C&D last time out and in race lacking depth, he looks to hold every chance of following up from a 3lb raised mark. Forge Valley Lad finished a narrow second at Wolverhampton on Monday and he could prove the main danger from a handy draw. Any market support for handicap-debutant Ephyra would be noteworthy.
CRAFTER made amends for his narrow defeat here the time before when readily winning under this rider over C&D last month and is of strong interest again off 3 lb higher. Forge Valley Lad looks ready to strike again so is the obvious threat, with Thursday best of the others back at a more suitable trip.
Crafter and FORGE VALLEY LAD have conditions to suit and come here in top form. The latter is marginally preferred.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (6/4 +50%) Needlepoint |
6/4(+50%) | (1) Needlepoint 6/4, Fairly useful filly. 11/1, won 7-runner maiden at Chantilly (5.5f, good to firm), Stepped up in trip last time out (38 days ago) when finishing third of 6 in a novice event at Chelmsford City (7f, 13/8). That run came off the back of a 17-month break so could come on for that. Cheekpieces applied. Won sole 2yo start; below that form on belated reappearance but could improve for it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (8/13 -115%) Zip It Up |
8/13(-115%) | (2) Zip It Up 8/13, Promising Lope De Vega colt who was tongue tied when a wide-margin winner of 11-runner novice at Kempton (6f) on her debut 97 days ago, dominating. Claims are crystal clear. Impressive on debut at Kempton in September; strong claims under a penalty today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (22/1 +45%) Big Time Rascal |
22/1(+45%) | (3) Big Time Rascal 22/1, Fair gelding. 40/1, first run since leaving Paul & Oliver Cole when third of 4 in novice at Lingfield (5f, AW) in November. Failed to build on that when seventh of 12 in maiden at Southwell (5f, 28/1) 9 days ago (looked awkward under pressure). Up in trip but plenty to find with the best of these. His form has gone the wrong way and he's now 0-8; others are preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (80/1 +0%) Bree Anna Poppy |
80/1(+0%) | (5) Bree Anna Poppy 80/1, Twice-raced maiden who has yet to beat another horse home. First run for new yard since leaving David Evans. Opposable. Failed to beat a rival in August 2023 on her first two runs and she's been absent since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
It was hard to not be impressed by ZIP IT UP's debut success and with little in the way of opposition, she is difficult to oppose. That said, Richard Hannon's filly hasn't been seen since September and that would be a slight concern, and Needlepoint is the most likely threat. Big Time Rascal holds an official rating of 60 and would need more to come home in front.
Assuming all is well following a 97-day break, ZIP IT UP should be able to make it two from two. Needlepoint rates as the obvious danger, trying cheekpieces and a new trip for the first time. Swift Storm can pick up the pieces in third.
The Richard Hannon-trained filly ZIP IT UP created a very good impression on her debut at Kempton and can follow up.

1st (6) (9/2 +47%) Supreme King |
9/2(+47%) | (6) Supreme King 9/2, 28/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 74 days ago, left poorly placed. Off for 74 days but of interest on this spring's 6f efforts; strong pace would suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (4/1 -45%) Monsieur Kodi |
4/1(-45%) | (3) Monsieur Kodi 4/1, Latest win at Chelmsford (6f) in November. Best not judged on latest eighth of 13 over 7f there as he met trouble and has also yet convince that 7f is his trip. Warren Fentiman takes off a handy 7 lb. Player. 6f win at Chelmsford last month; two solid efforts since; should remain competitive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/2 +63%) Wallop |
9/2(+63%) | (5) Wallop 9/2, Has struggled in handicaps this year, finishing tenth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. Blinkers off. Struggled in 2024 and enough to prove despite a big drop in the weights. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (7/1 +42%) G'day Mate |
7/1(+42%) | (1) G'day Mate 7/1, Out of sorts when last seen in the summer. His mark has come down as a result but would need to see market support to consider with cheekpieces added back from a break. Well treated on this year's C&D runs but out of sorts in the summer; new headgear today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (11/4 +8%) Sovereign Knight |
11/4(+8%) | (4) Sovereign Knight 11/4, Three wins from 10 runs this year, posting a career best when landing his latest win over C&D 19 days ago. Should remain competitive up 3 lb. Ready C&D win 19 days ago; 3lb rise fair but not sure to be in the same form a second time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (16/1 -220%) Five Winds |
16/1(-220%) | (7) Five Winds 16/1, Career best when making all in 10-runner C&D handicap last month (final start for Jack Jones). Has a handy inside stall and bold show likely if showing up in the same form for her new trainer. Given fine ride when winning over C&D last month; 4lb rise leaves her vulnerable; new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (8/1 +11%) Momaer |
8/1(+11%) | (2) Momaer 8/1, Course winner. Also went in at Newmarket last November but not seen since finishing seventh of 10 at Kempton (6f) a year ago. First run for yard after leaving Mark Loughnane. Makes stable debut on a good mark but absent for 375 days and often races too freely. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Five Winds won well over C&D last time out and although she's respected from a 4lb higher mark, SOVEREIGN KNIGHT shades preference. Also on target over track and trip recently, the way in which Amy Murphy's charge travelled into that contest would suggest he can readily defy a 3lb rise in the handicap. Momaer might not be far away either.
The return to 6f will suit MONSIEUR KODI, who is taken to come good again with Warren Fentiman taking 7 lb off. Last month's all-the-way C&D scorer Five Winds is well drawn to attack again and is feared most.
Supreme King can go well back from a break but MONSIEUR KODI is preferred as he bids for a second AW win.

1st (7) (8/1 +60%) Smith |
8/1(+60%) | (7) Smith 8/1, 6-time C&D winner, last seen on Flat when 6 of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Lingfield (AW) in September. Two spins over hurdlers since, showed some promise at Plumpton in October but failed to back it up when well beaten at Fontwell 44 days ago. Six-time C&D winner but hasn't been shaping as though he's about to snap a losing sequence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (10/3 +33%) Arch Legend |
10/3(+33%) | (6) Arch Legend 10/3, Good fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, AW) in November. Didn't get his own way out in front at Chelmsford (14f) 10 days ago, still in contention entering home straight but paid for early exertions late on. Not ruled out upped in trip again. Below last winning mark; hinted at revival last month but failed to build on that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (2/1 +71%) Sir Joseph Swan |
2/1(+71%) | (5) Sir Joseph Swan 2/1, Latest win at Southwell in November. 7/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at that course (16.5f) the following week. Ran respectably when fifth of 11 in handicap (17/2) at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 8 days ago, made headway out wide 4 furlongs from home and kept on. Can be competitive again. Creditable third over C&D in September and he's continued in good form since; solid claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (14/1 +0%) Foinix |
14/1(+0%) | (3) Foinix 14/1, Latest win at Lingfield in August. Last of 5 in handicap (8/1) at Ffos Las (12f, heavy) 114 days ago. Is 0-3 when returning from breaks of 90 days or more and has only the sole win from 20 starts on the AW so this could be a tough ask on reappearance. Won two in a row in August; below par the last twice but a break may have helped. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (12/1 -9%) Spitfire Bridge |
12/1(-9%) | (2) Spitfire Bridge 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Has struggled in handicap hurdles this autumn, last seen when below form fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good) 35 days ago. Has shown glimpses of ability on the Flat and races on the level for the first time wearing cheekpieces. Went close on Flat handicap debut in August but hasn't shone over hurdles more recently. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (4/1 +11%) Certain Style |
4/1(+11%) | (8) Certain Style 4/1, 66/1 fourth at Chelmsford City (14f) before breaking maiden tag in bizare circumstances when upped in trip here. 33 days ago, easy lead having been slow away and allowed to draw clear for 22-length win. While that form can't be taken at face value, she races off same mark today in a winnable race. Got off the mark in farcical race over C&D last month; same mark today and has a chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (15/2 +46%) Devizes |
15/2(+46%) | (4) Devizes 15/2, 4-time Course winner. below form seventh of 13 in handicap at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) and well beaten returning off 104-day break at Kempton 4 days ago. Back up in trip today which should see him in a better light. Four-time course winner but he was well beaten at Kempton only on Wednesday. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
CERTAIN STYLE benefitted from an enterprising ride when scoring by 22 lengths in an apprentice handicap over track and trip last month and she is able to compete off the same rating. Laura Mongan's four-year-old can prove that facile success was no fluke in order to record a double. Arch Legend has finished fourth in this grade the last twice and could go well off 2lb lower than his most recent display at Chelmsford. Sir Joseph Swan is another to note.
If taking up this engagement, DAARIS has strong claims and can make it two wins from his last three starts. The race didn't pan out for Arch Legend last time, and he's not discounted on his first try at two miles, while Certain Style should arrive here in good heart after breaking her maiden 33 days ago.
Having been in consistently good form in recent months, SIR JOSEPH SWAN can deservedly return to winning ways.

1st (2) (5/1 +38%) Sisters In The Sky |
5/1(+38%) | (2) Sisters In The Sky 5/1, Three wins from 25 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in October. 9/1, bit below form 4¾ lengths sixth of 12 to Poetic Jack over C&D 18 days ago, never nearer after missing the break. Can make presence felt. Needs a strong pace but ran well from a poor position here last time; can go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (3/1 +0%) Nordic Glory |
3/1(+0%) | (1) Nordic Glory 3/1, Five-time course winner. Latest win at Windsor in August. Respectable second of 5 in handicap over 5f here in September. Contender if returning from a break in similar form. Conditions to suit and in form when last seen in September; one to consider. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (33/1 -32%) Banana |
33/1(-32%) | (10) Banana 33/1, Remains a maiden after 38 starts. 25/1, bit below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6f) 39 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. 38-race maiden who has a wide stall to overcome; others are safer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (8/1 +43%) Mashaan |
8/1(+43%) | (8) Mashaan 8/1, Course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Hooded for 1st time, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7f, 12/1) 36 days ago. Only seen twice in the last 18 months and he's finished down the field on both occasions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (5/2 +25%) Time Patrol |
5/2(+25%) | (4) Time Patrol 5/2, Creditable fourth of 13 in handicap (9/1) at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago, nearest finish. Runner-up over this C&D prior to that. Can give another good account Knocking at the door in AW handicaps since September; good chance once again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (12) (100/1 -150%) Haveagobeau |
100/1(-150%) | (12) Haveagobeau 100/1, Took record to 0-19 when last of 11 over C&D 31 days ago. Uphill task. Exposed 19-race maiden; well beaten over C&D last month and he's hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (13/2 +7%) We're Reunited |
13/2(+7%) | (7) We're Reunited 13/2, Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. 25/1, good second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 37 days ago. Merits consideration. Headed in the final stride at Wolverhampton latest; unlikely to be left alone up front. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (12/1 +40%) Miss Moonshine |
12/1(+40%) | (6) Miss Moonshine 12/1, C&D winner. Tongue strap on first time, 8¾ lengths eleventh of 12 to Poetic Jack in handicap (33/1) at this C&D (AW) 18 days ago, unable to sustain effort. That was his first run for 6 months so he could strip fitter now. Conditions to suit but the draw hasn't been kind and others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (6/1 +63%) Sassy Redhead |
6/1(+63%) | (5) Sassy Redhead 6/1, Three-time C&D winner. 8¾ lengths last of 12 to Poetic Jack over C&D 18 days ago. Won this race last year and also scored over C&D in February; not fired back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (33/1 +18%) Balmy Breese |
33/1(+18%) | (11) Balmy Breese 33/1, Remains a maiden after starts. First run since leaving John Mackie when seventh of 9 in handicap (40/1) at Wolverhampton (6f) 41 days ago. 0-16; some promise last winter but needs to leave reappearance well behind him. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
WE'RE REUNITED outran big odds to take the silver medal home at this level at Wolverhampton last month and competes off a 2lb higher rating for that display. The son of Kodiac looks to have been found a good opportunity and has lots in his favour to go one better. Nordic Glory has filled the top two places on each of his last three starts and is expected to mount a bold bid again, while Poetic Jack isn't out of it either.
TIME PATROL is taken to gain reward for a string of good in-frame efforts this autumn/winter. Nordic Glory was in similarly good form himself when last seen in mid-September and will be a threat if fully primed after 3 months off. We're Reunited also makes the shortlist after a good second at Wolverhampton last month.
Time Patrol and SISTERS IN THE SKY could do with a good pace but the selection is well up to winning a similar race off his mark.

1st (5) (6/1 +57%) Unavailable |
6/1(+57%) | (5) Unavailable 6/1, C&D winner. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 28/1) 41 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. A return to form is needed but this two-time course winner is one to watch in the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (15/2 +25%) Starsong |
15/2(+25%) | (2) Starsong 15/2, 20/1, last of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 18 days ago. Runner-up twice in a row in March (including on Polytrack) but below par subsequently. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (10/3 -33%) Ravensbourne |
10/3(-33%) | (4) Ravensbourne 10/3, Creditable third of 12 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D (AW) 18 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Hilal Kobeissi. Blinkers on 1st time. Has to be taken seriously. 0-14 but creditable third over C&D this month and she's on the shortlist. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (20/1 -43%) Revolucion |
20/1(-43%) | (10) Revolucion 20/1, One win from 38 Flat runs. Twenty one runs since last win in 2023. Eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 25/1) 31 days ago. Just 1-38 and recent evidence doesn't suggest he's about to add to that tally. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (4/1 +20%) Hello Zabeel |
4/1(+20%) | (3) Hello Zabeel 4/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, well backed but only twelfth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Losing run continued with disappointing effort last time, but encouraging signs previously. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (14/1 -56%) Bobby On The Beat |
14/1(-56%) | (6) Bobby On The Beat 14/1, 3-time C&D winner. Tenth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 25/1) 18 days ago. Three-time C&D winner but well beaten over C&D the last twice, following an absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (28/1 -40%) Barnsnape Boy |
28/1(-40%) | (7) Barnsnape Boy 28/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap (11/1) at Brighton (7f, good). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Adam West. Hard to fancy on the majority of form but this headstrong sort may be suited by sprinting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (13/2 -8%) Lord Danielson |
13/2(-8%) | (9) Lord Danielson 13/2, Fourth of 11 in handicap (40/1) at Chelmsford City (7f) 43 days ago. Hood back on. Can make presence felt. 0-12 but showed pace when fourth over 7f at Chelmsford last time; not ruled out now at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (33/1 -106%) Apple A Dey |
33/1(-106%) | (8) Apple A Dey 33/1, Seventh of 11 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D (AW) 31 days ago. Looks competitive on form. She's run the odd fair race but made it 0-9 when a well-beaten 7th of 9 over C&D last time. |

10th (11) (20/1 +20%) Lil Wade |
20/1(+20%) | (11) Lil Wade 20/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 40/1) 8 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes polytrack debut. Runner-up at Wolverhampton in September but unable to match that form on his 8 runs since. |

11th (12) (33/1 +0%) Moorgate |
33/1(+0%) | (12) Moorgate 33/1, C&D winner. One win from 24 Flat runs. Ninth of 10 in handicap (50/1) at this C&D (AW) 31 days ago. Went close in C&D classified in March but he's struggled to be competitive since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (1) (7/1 +42%) Voodoo Ray |
7/1(+42%) | (1) Voodoo Ray 7/1, 3 wins from 10 runs this year. 33/1, last of 12 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 39 days ago. Close third at Brighton in September but he's struggled on his three starts since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
RAVENSBOURNE produced a much better effort to make the frame over C&D earlier in the month and the handicapper might have been kind to drop her 1lb for that performance. The three-year-old sports first-time blinkers, which could eke out the improvement required. Lord Danielson finished a fair fourth over 7f at Chelmsford on his latest outing and is an interesting contender over this shorter distance. Voodoo Ray looks best of the rest.
RAVENSBOURNE got back on track when third over C&D last time and can make a winning start for this trainer. Hello Zabeel has headgear re-fitted having failed badly to justify support at Kempton last time so could bounce back, while the free-going Lord Danielson is worth another try at sprinting.
This could be a good opportunity for RAVENSBOURNE (nap) to get off the mark following her encouraging third over C&D last time.

1st (6) (66/1 -164%) Rainyniteingeorgia |
66/1(-164%) | (6) Rainyniteingeorgia 66/1, C&D winner. 16/1 and tongue strap and cheekpieces on first time, 7¾ lengths last of 11 to Catch Cunningham in handicap at Wolverhampton (5f) in September. Off 106 days. Bounce back needed after wind surgery. Has regressed in three starts in handicaps for this yard; had a wind op; bit to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6/5 +47%) Mc Loven |
6/5(+47%) | (1) Mc Loven 6/5, C&D winner who also went in on turf here in July. Good third of 9 in C&D handicap in September. Off 99 days. Can give a good account. C&D winner and third in stronger race last time; has run well fresh; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (15/2 +25%) Catch Cunningham |
15/2(+25%) | (4) Catch Cunningham 15/2, Three wins from 17 runs this year. 10/1, bit below form when sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 29 days ago, not ideally placed. Makes polytrack debut. Unraced on Polytrack and may not find them coming back to him in time on this sharp track. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (2/1 +33%) Twilight Fun |
2/1(+33%) | (2) Twilight Fun 2/1, Three wins from 8 runs this year, the latest at Chelmsford in November. Good second of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5f, 13/2) 13 days ago. Should go well again. Effective from the front but has won when held up; didn't lead when just pipped last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (18/1 -29%) Diamond Dreamer |
18/1(-29%) | (5) Diamond Dreamer 18/1, Four wins from 9 runs this year, the latest over C&D in August. 28/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) 48 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Has won over C&D but held off this mark last time so needs to find more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (10/1 +38%) Juicy |
10/1(+38%) | (3) Juicy 10/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on first time, eighth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 40 days ago. Blinkers on first time. Effective from the front, but will do well to dominate this field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (6/1 0%) Mick's Spirit |
6/1(0%) | (8) Mick's Spirit 6/1, Six-time C&D winner, including twice in February. Third of 5 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good to firm, 7/4) in July. Perhaps a chance he'll need this back from 5 months off. Six-time C&D winner and 2lb below last winning mark, but off five months. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MC LOVEN paid the price for setting brisk early fractions when fading into third close home over C&D last time out and, nudged up 1lb from a handier draw, another bold bid looks likely. Twilight Fun was denied a hat-trick in the shadows of the post over this trip at Wolverhampton earlier this month and he should go well again off 1lb higher. It may not be long until Mick's Spirit finds himself in the winner's enclosure off what is becoming an attractive mark.
The thriving TWILIGHT FUN might be good for another win. Mc Loven is building up a good record on AW and is second choice. Honour Your Dreams could also play a part if turning up after/instead of Wolverhampton on Saturday.
Plenty of pace is likely. The choice is TWILIGHT FUN who has proved himself effective from the front, but he has also won when held up.

1st (12) (20/1 0%) Ernie's Valentine |
20/1(0%) | (12) Ernie's Valentine 20/1, Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap (22/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 64 days ago, slowly away. Back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving David Loughnane. 7lb below last winning mark; worth monitoring in the market on debut for new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (20/1 -82%) Vince Lombardi |
20/1(-82%) | (10) Vince Lombardi 20/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 34 days ago, running on. On a good mark and should remain competitive. Has performed well in both starts for this yard since tongue-tie went on; frame material. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (3/1 +10%) Ziggy's Condor |
3/1(+10%) | (2) Ziggy's Condor 3/1, Creditable fourth of 13 in handicap (17/2) at Newcastle (6f) 13 days ago, running on. Makes polytrack debut. Should give running again but not the most straightforward. Shouldn't have a problem with the return to 7f and looks on a fair mark; considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (4/1 +33%) Bell Shot |
4/1(+33%) | (8) Bell Shot 4/1, Respectable third of 12 in handicap (11/2) at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. Successful on last go over C&D and should go well under a positive ride. C&D winner; had two of these behind when third at Kempton 11 days ago; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (8/1 +11%) State Flag |
8/1(+11%) | (7) State Flag 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Newbury in July. 10/3, respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 58 days ago, finding test too much. Should be suited by the drop back in trip. C&D winner who should be suited by the return to this trip; worth a second look. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (4/1 +38%) Riot |
4/1(+38%) | (1) Riot 4/1, 15/2, respectable third of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 19 days ago, running on. Likely to be thereabouts again. All seven wins over this trip and still 2lb below last winning mark; needs a good pace. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (33/1 -65%) Bulldog Drummond |
33/1(-65%) | (4) Bulldog Drummond 33/1, Latest win at Newmarket in August. 33/1 and visored for 1st time, bit below form seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 19 days ago. Back off last winning mark, but recent efforts suggest others are more likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (28/1 +0%) The Caribbean |
28/1(+0%) | (9) The Caribbean 28/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap (18/1) at Newmarket (6f, heavy) 50 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Has shown little in eight starts for this yard; hard to recommend at present. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (16/1 +0%) Thorntonledale Max |
16/1(+0%) | (11) Thorntonledale Max 16/1, Winner at Kempton in August. 12/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 9 days ago. Not dismissed. Dead-heated at Kempton in August; bit of a mixed bag so far; not quite sure what to expect. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (150/1 -127%) Mond |
150/1(-127%) | (6) Mond 150/1, Hooded for 1st time, eleventh of 12 in handicap (125/1) at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. Hard to fancy. Twice well beaten since returning from a mammoth absence for this yard last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (5) (4/1 +47%) Mr Baloo |
4/1(+47%) | (5) Mr Baloo 4/1, 4/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 11 days ago. On a workable mark and needs considering despite a wide draw. Won twice at Kempton in the spring; favourably treated but wide draw might pose a problem. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
ZIGGY'S CONDOR has been doing his best work late on over 6f the last twice and, stepping back up in trip off what looks an exploitable mark, Richard Fahey's charge gets the nod. Riot was too keen for his own good when finishing third over a mile here earlier this month and this step back to 7f could help the son of Kingman to be seen to better effect. Bell Shot is also respected eased 1lb for a creditable third over this trip at Kempton recently.
BELL SHOT arrives in form and was successful on his last go over C&D, so he's worth a chance to resume winning ways. State Flag is of interest back down in trip and Riot is a player if they end up going too quick.
The most appealing option is RIOT, especially if he gets a good pace to aim at. He remains on a good mark and is a true 7f specialist.

1st (8) (12/1 -85%) H Key Lails |
12/1(-85%) | (8) H Key Lails 12/1, Creditable third of 11 in handicap (15/8) at Chelmsford City (8f) 17 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Merits consideration. Placed in his last five starts, but looks to have nothing in hand of this mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (3/1 +0%) Book Of Life |
3/1(+0%) | (5) Book Of Life 3/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 2/1, creditable ½-length second of 11 to Swatch in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 8 days ago, running on. Can reverse the form here. Beaten half a length by Swatch at Wolverhampton eight days ago and now 2lb better off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (16/1 +0%) Raqraaq |
16/1(+0%) | (10) Raqraaq 16/1, C&D winner. One win from 25 Flat runs. 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 32 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces back on. Others look better treated. Sole win in 25 starts came over C&D; prominent in the market the last twice; could go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (6/1 +63%) Serenity Rose |
6/1(+63%) | (2) Serenity Rose 6/1, Good second of 12 in handicap (20/1) at this course (7f, AW) 18 days ago, no match for winner. Needs improvement but step back up in trip should help. Ran well on second start for this yard last time; return to this trip should suit; player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (3/1 +25%) Swatch |
3/1(+25%) | (1) Swatch 3/1, Course winner. 7/1, won 11-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 8 days ago by ½ length from Book of Life, well positioned. Should go well again. 3lb higher than when winning at Wolverhampton eight days ago; shortlist material. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (5/1 +50%) Fihrayn |
5/1(+50%) | (3) Fihrayn 5/1, Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap (9/1) at Newmarket (8f, good to soft) 51 days ago, not ideally placed. Others more persuasive. 0-11; went close at Kempton in September but a bit more is needed in order to win. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (25/1 -150%) Kondratiev Wave |
25/1(-150%) | (7) Kondratiev Wave 25/1, 4 wins from 15 runs this year. Respectable second of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 3/1) 17 days ago, no match for winner. Worthy of consideration. Form of last 14 starts reads 42412213131432; hard to leave out of calculations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (9/1 +25%) Buy The Dip |
9/1(+25%) | (4) Buy The Dip 9/1, C&D winner. Sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f, AW, 12/1) 18 days ago. Others make more appeal. C&D winner; behind Serenity Rose the last twice; return to 1m may suit but others stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (25/1 -79%) Rabinal |
25/1(-79%) | (9) Rabinal 25/1, C&D winner. 3 wins from 14 runs this year. Latest win here in August. Last of 13 in handicap (25/1) at Ascot (7f, good to soft) 79 days ago. Likely to bounce back returned to AW. Three wins here, the latest in August; should be more at home back on this surface. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (6) (14/1 +30%) Respectable Jack |
14/1(+30%) | (6) Respectable Jack 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (7f, good to soft). Off 165 days. Uphill task. 0-5; bred to stay this far but has a 165-day absence to overcome. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SWATCH got the better of Book Of Life (second) when scoring cosily over an extended mile at Wolverhampton last week and, although the latter is better off at the weights this time around, the former gets the vote to confirm his superiority en route to victory once more. Kondratiev Wave has been running consistently well of late and is respected most of the remainder.
BOOK OF LIFE was denied by Swatch at Wolverhampton last time but he's on better terms and worth a chance to turn the tables. H Key Lails shaped well under an aggressive ride at Chelmsford last time, so he's worth considering from a low draw.
It may be worth taking a chance with RAQRAAQ whose sole win came over C&D. He looks to have a bigger performance in him.
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.
