1st (7)  (11/8 +61%)Kitteridge |
11/8(+61%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Kitteridge 11/8, Camelot filly. Dam, 2-y-o 5f winner, half-sister to useful 2-y-o 6f/7f winner (stayed 1½m) Arthur Kitt (by Camelot) out of useful 2-y-o 5f winner Ceiling Kitty. Second of 7 in novice at Chelmsford City (10f, 7/1) on debut 32 days ago, no match for winner. Should have more to offer. Clear second to experienced, odds-on winner on last month's debut; shortlisted. |
|||
2nd (10)  (9/4 +10%)Sea Ice |
9/4(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Sea Ice 9/4, Thrice-raced filly. 11/4, second of 10 in novice at Lingfield (8f, AW) 78 days ago. Up in trip. Form pick. Sets a good form standard and her dam was a 1m4f winner, so this new trip could suit. |
|||
3rd (8)  (40/1 -150%)Lucykeys |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lucykeys 40/1, 25,000 gns foal, Gleneagles filly. Half-sister to useful 9.5f winner Zenga. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner, out of half-sister to top-class miler Kingman. 25,000gns foal; bred to have a bright future but may be one for further down the line. |
|||
4th (5)  (2/1 -14%)Dazzling Jewel |
2/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Dazzling Jewel 2/1, Dubawi filly out of a Cheveley Park-winning mare. Sister to smart 1m/9f winner Highland Avenue and half-sister to useful 1m winner Silver Lady. 10/11, fourth of 6 in novice at Haydock (8f, good to firm) on debut, not knocked about. Off 167 days. Up in trip. Open to progress. Disappointing at odds-on on sole 2yo run but could be entirely different proposition today. |
|||
5th (4)  (66/1 -65%)Storm Spirit |
66/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Storm Spirit 66/1, Placed in 2 of 3 bumpers (modest form, looked less than straightforward). Runner-up in 2 bumpers here; may prefer further than this but no surprise to see good run. |
|||
6th (2)  (20/1 -67%)Angelica K |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Angelica K 20/1, Connections went to 55,000 gns to acquire this Mastercraftsman filly last year. Half-sister to 2-y-o 7f winner Convection. Third of 8 in maiden (33/1) at Kempton (11f) on debut 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Likely to improve. 33-1 third on last month's debut at Kempton and could build on that now up in trip. |
|||
7th (6)  (28/1 -180%)Hail The Flag |
28/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Hail The Flag 28/1, Twice-raced filly. 7/2, last of 8 in maiden at Kempton (11f) 29 days ago, finding nothing. Disappointing on second start but promising third on debut and not written off here. |
|||
8th (1)  (200/1 +0%)Ancora |
200/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ancora 200/1, No form over hurdles. Last of 8 in maiden at this course (8f, 66/1) on Flat debut 14 days ago, slowly away. Up in trip. Pulled up over hurdles on first three starts and finished last at 66-1 on Flat debut here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A highly encouraging second on her introduction at Chelmsford last month, KITTERIDGE sets the standard and can go one better at a track that should suit. Placed on her last two starts, Sea Ice should be open to improvement over further, while the same can be said of Dazzling Jewel, who was only fourth when odds-on for her Haydock debut but is related to Group winners Silver Lady and Highland Avenue and is out of Cheveley Park heroine Lumiere.
SEA ICE sets the standard and should have more to offer up in trip, so is preferred to Dazzling Jewel, who was too green to ever justify market confidence at Haydock on debut in September but showed enough to suggest she'll be a different proposition this time. Kitteridge is another to consider after her promising debut second at Chelmsford.
Preference is for the well-bred Godolphin filly DAZZLING JEWEL who can leave her sole 2yo run well behind. Sea Ice is feared.

1st (1)  (11/4 +39%)Smart Vision |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Smart Vision 11/4, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 11 in novice at this course (6f) 75 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Promise in two runs here this winter; could do with settling better now switched to h'caps. |
|||
2nd (6)  (7/2 -27%)Havanarama |
7/2(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Havanarama 7/2, Hooded first time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Kempton (7f, 6/1) 36 days ago, pushed out. Makes tapeta debut. Shortlist material. Ready winner at Kempton last month; form not boosted but he was well on top at the finish. |
|||
3rd (7)  (10/3 +33%)Likeashadow |
10/3(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Likeashadow 10/3, C&D winner. Creditable third of 8 in handicap at this course (1m) 5 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Merits consideration. Two course wins as a 2yo; he's been a model of consistency and should be involved again. |
|||
4th (4)  (20/1 -43%)Mariner |
20/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mariner 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 31 days ago. Lewis Edmunds on the stable's other runner. Needs to raise his game to trouble the principals; Lewis Edmunds rides Smart Vision today. |
|||
5th (3)  (25/1 -257%)Kapparis Kid |
25/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Kapparis Kid 25/1, Temperamental sort. Winner of novice at Chelmsford (6f) in December. 12/1, fourth of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) 11 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Well held in two handicaps since his Chelmsford novice success; others appeal more. |
|||
6th (2)  (11/2 -22%)Star Mind |
11/2(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Star Mind 11/2, Winner of a 7f Wolverhampton maiden and 6-runner C&D handicap since joining this yard. Very much had the run of it here last time but still respected up 4 lb. 2-3 for new yard, including from the front over C&D last month; 4lb higher but improving. |
|||
7th (5)  (8/1 -7%)Reveal |
8/1(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Reveal 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/1, third of 5 in handicap at Lingfield (1m) 11 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Fair efforts for new yard but hopes here rest on the cheekpieces sparking some improvement. |
|||
8th (8)  (9/1 +0%)Treat Of Treats |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Treat Of Treats 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 100/1, fifth of 12 in novice at Southwell (6f) 42 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Potential improver now upped in trip for her handicap debut; betting to guide. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
STAR MIND has been a revelation since joining the Jack Jones stable and a 4lb rise for her most recent success over C&D may not be enough to stop her from going in again. She gets the vote ahead of Kempton winner Havanarama, as well as Smart Vision, who has run with plenty of credit here the last twice and should be suited by going back up in distance on his handicap bow.
HAVANARAMA didn't look all out at Kempton last month so a 4 lb rise may not prevent him going in again. The consistent Likeashadow may give him most to do ahead of last-time-out C&D scorer Star Mind.
Star Mind could yet progress further but HAVANARAMA (nap), the other last-time-out winner in the field, is preferred.

1st (5)  (5/6 +59%)Cover Up |
5/6(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Cover Up 5/6, Two wins from 6 runs last year. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D (13/8) 12 days ago, always holding on. Firmly on the up since switched to AW and likely type for the hat-trick. 2-2 on AW and impressive over C&D 12 days ago; obvious chance of completing the hat-trick. |
|||
2nd (7)  (9/2 -13%)Moon Flight |
9/2(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Moon Flight 9/2, 9/2, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at this C&D 18 days ago, digging deep. Has made a productive start for this stable and did well in the circumstances last time. Unexposed at 5f and his latest C&D win can be upgraded; up in class but greatly respected. |
|||
3rd (8)  (22/1 -144%)Pockley |
22/1(-144%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Pockley 22/1, Unreliable sort. 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in November. Respectable 2 lengths sixth of 11 to Moon Flight in handicap (13/2) at this C&D 18 days ago. Blinkers back on. Back to his last winning mark but he finished behind stablemate Moon Flight here last time. |
|||
4th (2)  (7/1 +13%)Intervention |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Intervention 7/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 5 days ago, worst of draw. Cheekpieces back on. Has enjoyed a terrific AW campaign and is likely to be back on his game. Having a fine winter and this stiff 5f should be fine; likely to go well again. |
|||
5th (4)  (16/1 -78%)Lord Riddiford |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lord Riddiford 16/1, 25/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 33 days ago. Generally gives his running and can't be ruled out. Admirable 9yo who retains a good chunk of his ability; vulnerable to progressive rivals. |
|||
6th (1)  (11/1 -69%)Exalted Angel |
11/1(-69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Exalted Angel 11/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2021. 5/2, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 27 days ago, well positioned. Cheekpieces back on. Can make presence felt. Over 3 years since his last win but retains good deal of ability; others still appeal more. |
|||
7th (6)  (28/1 -56%)Jump The Gun |
28/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Jump The Gun 28/1, Unreliable individual. Course winner. Below form 5 lengths seventh of 12 to Cover Up in handicap at this C&D (18/1) 12 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Something to find on form. Course winner off this mark in November (6f); 5f looked too sharp last time. |
|||
8th (3)  (9/1 -38%)Clearpoint |
9/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Clearpoint 9/1, C&D winner. Respectable third of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 33 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Fellowes. Worth monitoring in the betting. Did well for Charlie Fellowes this winter; sold 75,000gns since latest; one to consider. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
COVER UP posted an authoritative success over C&D earlier this month and, off a 5lb higher mark, John and Thady Gosden's charge should be tough to stop once more. On his penultimate start, Intervention finished a solid third over 5f at Wolverhampton and, now dropping back to the minimum trip after a subdued effort over 7f last week, the keen-going seven-year-old can make his presence felt. Moon Flight scored by a head over C&D, but a 4lb rise may make life tougher.
COVER UP is very much going the right way and he had something to spare again over C&D last time, so he gets the nod ahead of fellow recent C&D winner Moon Flight. Intervention is expected to get back on his game, so he's hard to rule out.
Moon Flight is improving but so too is COVER UP and the Gosden runner is fancied to complete an AW hat-trick.

10/3(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Rory 10/3, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. Run best excused (lame) when sixth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 5 days ago. May bounce back. Finished lame when below par here last week; better judged on solid earlier course form. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/2 +44%)Nazca |
9/2(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Nazca 9/2, Produced a career best to resume winning ways over C&D in January. Well below that level on his last 2 outings but still looks feasibly handicapped if returning to form. Had a fine spell in the last six months but perhaps the handicapper has caught up for now. |
|||
3rd (5)  (17/2 +23%)Warminster |
17/2(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Warminster 17/2, Eighteen runs since last win in 2023 and finished only sixth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 6 days ago. Needs to up his game. Some good runs for this yard, including over C&D, but he wasn't at his best last week. |
|||
4th (8)  (10/3 +5%)Carlton And Co |
10/3(+5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Carlton And Co 10/3, Course winner. 13/2, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 6 days ago. Likely to continue in form. Hard to win with but she comes here in good form and conditions suit; solid contender. |
|||
5th (7)  (11/2 -10%)Asadjumeirah |
11/2(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Asadjumeirah 11/2, C&D winner. Thirty three runs since last win in 2022 but posted another creditable effort when second of 5 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 23 days ago. Should remain competitive. More than enough ability to win off this mark but his losing run currently stands at 33. |
|||
6th (6)  (25/1 -456%)Redzone |
25/1(-456%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Redzone 25/1, 3-time C&D winner. Last of 6 in handicap (9/1) at Catterick (5f, good to firm), merely closing up late. Needs to bounce back after an 8-month absence. Conditions to suit and on a good mark but returns without his usual headgear. |
|||
7th (1)  (6/1 -33%)Burj Malinka |
6/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Burj Malinka 6/1, Resumed winning ways at Hamilton in September. Not disgraced at Redcar on final outing and needs considering given he's capable fresh. Well suited by a stiff track and can go well fresh; other pace to deal with; down in class. |
|||
8th (3)  (11/1 +8%)Pembrokeshire |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Pembrokeshire 11/1, Latest win at Musselburgh in October but underperformed at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 8/1) 27 days ago. Running creditably this winter but he needs to pull out more dropped back in trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Less than a length separated Warminster (second) and Asadjumeirah (fourth) when they clashed over this course and distance last month but the latter has a 2lb pull and can reverse the form. However, this could be tactical and, with that in mind, CARLTON AND CO shades preference. Handily drawn and running off 3lb below her only previous winning mark, the Mick and David Easterby-trained mare ticks enough boxes to be worth chancing in this closely-knit handicap. Rory can also figure if he doesn't fluff the start.
BURJ MALINKA has run well fresh before and takes a slight drop in grade on this return to action, so he's put forward as the answer. Nazca still looks feasibly treated based on his C&D win last month, while Asadjumeirah ought to give another good account.
Carlton And Co is in top form and can go well but RORY may be able to quickly bounce back from Saturday's rare blip.

1st (1)  (9/2 +0%)Athollblair Boy |
9/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Athollblair Boy 9/2, Veteran who returned to form from easing mark when runner-up here on penultimate start and built on that to add an eighth C&D success to his tally 5 weeks ago. 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another good showing. 13th career win when readily beating 11 rivals here last month; should remain competitive. |
|||
2nd (7)  (10/3 -11%)Flash The Dash |
10/3(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Flash The Dash 10/3, Tumbled down the weights and belatedly built on previous promise when winning 10-runner C&D handicap 12 days ago, staying on to lead line. Worth considering now he's got his head back in front. Swept through late to score over C&D 12 days ago; solid contender despite 3lb rise. |
|||
3rd (5)  (16/5 +36%)The Gay Blade |
16/5(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) The Gay Blade 16/5, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in January. Seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 17/2) 19 days ago. Not taken lightly returned to 6f. Two easy wins in January, including C&D; not so good the last twice; possible reviver. |
|||
4th (3)  (7/2 +30%)Thaki |
7/2(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Thaki 7/2, C&D winner. Creditable second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 9/2) 16 days ago, headway out wide over 1f out and keeping on. Capable of defying this mark and he's one to consider. Conditions to suit and he's on a good mark; should be in the thick of it again. |
|||
5th (6)  (15/2 +17%)Captain Vallo |
15/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Captain Vallo 15/2, C&D winner. 6/1, 6¼ lengths ninth of 12 to Athollblair Boy in handicap at this C&D 34 days ago, never better than midfield. Mark has eased a little more. Should be faring better off his lowly mark; over 6l to find with Athollblair Boy on latest. |
|||
6th (8)  (13/2 +54%)Dream Together |
13/2(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Dream Together 13/2, Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. Last of 12 in handicap (17/2) at this C&D in September, folding from 2f out. Has gone well fresh in the past and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour back from 5 months off. Went close over C&D in August but less good twice since; cheekpieces left off today. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
THE GAY BLADE's last two efforts were below par, but those races took place over 5f and 7f and the Iain Jardine-trained gelding is dangerous to underestimate back over 6f. A winner over this course and distance last month, the five-year-old can bounce back, with this distance rated key. Flash The Dash also won over C&D latest and is respected off 3lb higher, despite having ground to make up with the selection based that aforementioned January encounter. The veteran Athollblair Boy completes the shortlist.
ATHOLLBLAIR BOY is now firmly into the veteran stage but he proved game as he brought up an eighth C&D success 5 weeks ago and a 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent him going well again in this groove. Thaki has signalled his turn isn't far away of late and he's feared along with recent C&D winner Flash The Dash. The Gay Blade would prove a danger to all granted his own way on the front end.
Abolish and THAKI lurk on handy marks and the latter is marginally preferred this evening.

12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Havana Party 12/1, Latest win at Hamilton in September. 7/1, good second of 11 in handicap at Redcar later that month. Off since. Claims if primed after lay-off. Absent since September but in good form then; in the mix if resuming where he left off. |
|||
2nd (5)  (4/1 +0%)L'argent |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) L'argent 4/1, 25/1, fifth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (1m) 23 days ago. Still early days with this good stable. Good runs in defeat the last twice and might not be far away. |
|||
3rd (10)  (16/1 -78%)Showmedemoney |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Showmedemoney 16/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 18 runs last year. 10/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at this course 12 days ago, finding little. Back down in trip. 8lb lower than for September Carlisle win but struggling to get competitive on AW of late. |
|||
4th (2)  (6/4 +70%)Irish Flame |
6/4(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Irish Flame 6/4, C&D winner. Creditable third of 9 in C&D handicap 31 days ago. Claims if in similar form. Has gone close here a few times in handicaps and he's a likely player. |
|||
5th (11)  (14/1 -100%)Martin's Brig |
14/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Martin's Brig 14/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at this course (7f, 12/1) 9 days ago. Can make presence felt. Beaten on last 17 runs but plenty of good form in that time, including here the last twice. |
|||
6th (3)  (10/1 +29%)Souffionne |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Souffionne 10/1, Course winner. Visored first time, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 16/1) 27 days ago, having run of race. Course novice winner; fair fifth at Wolverhampton last time but needs something extra. |

7th (8)  (25/1 -56%)Dragons Will Rise |
25/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Dragons Will Rise 25/1, Four-time course winner. Eight wins from 28 Flat runs. Seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (7f, 28/1) 28 days ago. Step back in right direction over 7f here last time and not discounted now back up in trip. |
|||
8th (1)  (13/2 +19%)Alexander James |
13/2(+19%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Alexander James 13/2, C&D winner. 10/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (7f) 9 days ago. C&D winner with some good 7f form here of late; could benefit from this step back up to 1m. |
|||
9th (6)  (15/2 -88%)Win Win Power |
15/2(-88%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Win Win Power 15/2, Five wins from 12 runs last year and added to his tally in 7f Wolverhampton handicap 27 days ago. Looked to have a bit in hand so a 3 lb rise looks fair. 6 wins on Tapeta elsewhere since start of last year, including last time; solid contender. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
WIN WIN POWER kept on well to score over 7f at Wolverhampton last month, and a 3lb rise may not be enough to stop Mick Appleby's charge from going in again. Irish Flame posted an excellent third in a higher grade over C&D and, off an unchanged mark, he can give the selection most to think about. Havana Party finished a creditable second over 1m2f at Redcar when last seen and may reach the frame.
WIN WIN POWER won quite tidily at Wolverhampton last month so a 3 lb rise may not prevent him going in again. Martin's Brig has run well on his last 3 visits here and is second choice ahead of Irish Flame.
This could go to MARTIN'S BRIG who has been knocking firmly on the door of late. Win Win Power is next on the list.

1st (6)  (15/8 +16%)Ledger |
15/8(+16%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ledger 15/8, Modest gelding. C&D winner. Winner here in October. 6/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at this course (10.2f) 45 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Makes plenty of appeal down in grade. Form has gone wrong way but he drops into a classified for first time; not written off. |
|||
2nd (3)  (10/1 -25%)Eva Rosie |
10/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Eva Rosie 10/1, Modest filly. 40/1, good third of 10 in minor event at Southwell (8.1f) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Not dismissed. Returned from break with encouraging third at Southwell and could build on that run. |
|||
3rd (2)  (8/1 +50%)Child Of Lir |
8/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Child Of Lir 8/1, C&D winner. Winner here in September. Fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (80/1) 28 days ago. Has a bit to prove at present. Won a C&D maiden last September but unable to reproduce that form since. |
|||
4th (8)  (40/1 +39%)Run At Dawn |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Run At Dawn 40/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, ninth of 12 in minor event (150/1) at this course (10.2f) 12 days ago. Down in trip. Pulled up twice in a row over hurdles then down the field here (1m2f) 12 days ago. |
|||
5th (10)  (10/3 +26%)Wheres The Crumpet |
10/3(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Wheres The Crumpet 10/3, Modest mare. Creditable second of 12 in minor event at this course (10.2f, 11/2) 12 days ago. Back down in trip. Solid claims in a thin race. Remains a maiden after 15 starts but in good form here this year and she's respected. |
|||
6th (4)  (25/1 +24%)Fulltime |
25/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Fulltime 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, thirteenth of 14 in handicap (66/1) at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 99 days. First run for yard after leaving Eoin Griffin. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Lightly raced; check betting on stable debut but he showed very little in Ireland. |
|||
7th (1)  (14/1 -100%)Barossa |
14/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Barossa 14/1, Modest filly. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 7 in handicap (50/1) at this C&D 26 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Returned to form with fair fourth of seven in C&D handicap last month and not ruled out. |
|||
8th (5)  (25/1 +24%)Knight Of Magic |
25/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Knight Of Magic 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 80/1 and hooded for 1st time, eighth of 12 in minor event at this course (10.2f) 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Back down in trip. Form figures don't inspire confidence; 1m may suit after tackling 7f/1m2f the last twice. |
|||
9th (9)  (10/3 -21%)Stand Free |
10/3(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Stand Free 10/3, Modest mare. C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Third of 12 in minor event (8/1) at this course (10.2f) 12 days ago. Down in trip. Claims if she can build on latest effort. Faded late on when third in recent 1m2f classified here; return to 1m could prove ideal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Just a head separated Wheres The Crumpet (second) and STAND FREE (third) when the pair met over 1m2f here 12 days ago. Although the latter weakened late on, she hit the front going easily approaching the two-furlong marker and gets the vote now dropped in trip. Eva Rosie reached the frame in a similar contest at Southwell last month and she could find more for the addition of first-time cheekpieces.
LEDGER was a bit disappointing at this course last time but he takes a drop in grade now and is worth a chance to outclass some limited rivals. Wheres The Crumpet arrives in form and is regarded as a danger, while Stand Free showed more encouraging signs on her latest outing, so she's not ruled out.
Two-time C&D winner STAND FREE faded into third in a 1m2f classified here recently and can capitalise on the drop back in trip.

1st (8)  (6/4 +70%)Phoenix Star |
6/4(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Phoenix Star 6/4, 3-time C&D winner. Below form fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 13/2) 4 days ago, ridden from 2f out and keeping on. Not taken lightly back at this venue. His C&D form in the last six months brings him right into the reckoning. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/2 -29%)Elzaal |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Elzaal 9/2, 5-time C&D winner. Four wins from 15 runs last year. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D in November, ridden over 1f out and late headway. Expected to be thereabouts back from a break. Faces his optimum conditions and he's slipped to a good mark; one to keep an eye on. |
|||
3rd (6)  (9/2 -50%)Mehmo |
9/2(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mehmo 9/2, Three wins from 16 runs last year. 8/1, good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. Should be thereabouts again, particularly granted a good pace to aim at. Runner-up on his last two starts (C&D latest) but he's gone up 6lb as a result. |
|||
4th (9)  (12/1 -60%)Aconcagua Mountain |
12/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Aconcagua Mountain 12/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 45 days ago, making little impression from 1f out. Handicapper continues to relinquish his grip and worth noting if the market speaks in his favour back from 45 days off. Thrown in on his best form but his AW campaign thus far has been disappointing. |
|||
5th (7)  (12/1 -100%)Birkenhead |
12/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Birkenhead 12/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Respectable third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (17/2) 14 days ago. Not out of things. Placed over C&D two weeks ago and each-way claims with a repeat. |
|||
6th (1)  (11/1 +8%)Murbih |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Murbih 11/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 25/1, shaped as if better for the run following 10 weeks off when eighth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 42 days ago. Interesting down in class. Drops into Class 6 for the first time since winning at Wolverhampton in November 2022. |
|||
7th (5)  (40/1 -122%)Mews House |
40/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mews House 40/1, Regained winning thread at Hamilton (5f) back in May but lightly raced and offered little subsequently, last of 8 in a C&D handicap following 8 months off 2 weeks ago. Needs to leave that well behind to figure here. Dropped right away here two weeks ago on his return from an absence. |
|||
8th (3)  (10/1 +0%)Sixcor |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sixcor 10/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in November. Sixth of 8 in handicap (7/1) at this C&D 14 days ago, ridden around halfway and keeping on. Remains 4 lb above last winning mark but not discounted in an open-looking contest. Slowly away in both runs since winning at Wolverhampton in November. |
|||
9th (10)  (22/1 +56%)Candy Eye |
22/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Candy Eye 22/1, 50/1, last of 7 in handicap at this C&D 28 days ago, going off too hard. Still, she needs to show more before becoming of interest. No progress since handicapping and she looks booked for another struggle. |
|||
10th (2)  (18/1 -125%)Enraged |
18/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Enraged 18/1, C&D winner who ran below best when sixth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Carlisle (5f, good to soft) in June. However, she hit the ground running following an absence this time last year and no surprise to see a better showing. Won this race in 2023; arrived in top form then but she's been off since June this time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
An open event in which it might pay to take a chance on ENRAGED. Off the track since posting a couple of below-par efforts on turf last year, the Julie Camacho-trained five-year-old will appreciate the return to an artificial surface and might yet have more to offer. Mehmo continues to knock on the door and is unlikely to be far away, along with Phoenix Star, who finished a creditable fourth at Kempton last weekend, having been caught too far back.
ELZAAL has built up a very solid record over this C&D and, having hit the ground running back from a break last winter, he's fancied to make a bold bid to repeat the feat from a workable mark. Phoenix Star returned to this C&D and Enraged are others fancied to be in the mix, along with Mehmo.
Phoenix Star should go well but it might be worth chancing top-weight MURBIH on a rare foray into Class 6 company.

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.
