Stand Free |
(5) (8/1 +27%)8/1(+27%) | (5) Stand Free 8/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in August. 16/1, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 73 days ago. Back up in trip. Shouldn't be far away. Unreliable profile but she won over C&D two starts ago and can't be ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (6) (3/1 +14%) Keen Interest |
3/1(+14%) | (6) Keen Interest 3/1, Unreliable individual. One win from 22 Flat runs. Winner at Yarmouth in August. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 12/1) 13 days ago. Worth chancing despite his quirks. Poor strike-rate but running well of late and this could be a good opportunity. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (14/1 -211%) Sassy Glory |
14/1(-211%) | (8) Sassy Glory 14/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 11/4) 13 days ago. Ran well on penultimate outing and shouldn't be completely dismissed. Disappointing last time but placed twice in a row in September and could bounce back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (5/1 +44%) Rampant |
5/1(+44%) | (2) Rampant 5/1, 66/1, last of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (12.5f, good) 72 days ago. First run for yard after leaving James Ewart. Not easy to make a case for. 12-race maiden but some of his best performances have come here; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (7/2 +13%) Violeta |
7/2(+13%) | (1) Violeta 7/2, C&D winner. One win from 23 Flat runs. Winner here in September. 5/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D 37 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once more. Poor strike-rate but sole win came over C&D in September; she's one to consider. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (12/1 -71%) Visitant |
12/1(-71%) | (4) Visitant 12/1, Unreliable individual. C&D winner. Creditable second of 14 in handicap at Redcar (10f, heavy, 22/1) 10 days ago, no match for winner. Should be on the premises again. Runner-up on three of last five starts; high on the shortlist in what looks a weak race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (3/1 +75%) Making A Move |
3/1(+75%) | (10) Making A Move 3/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 250/1, eleventh of 15 in maiden at Limerick (7f, good). Off 138 days. First run for yard after leaving John Michael Burke. Makes handicap debut. Well worth a market check. Makes handicap/stable debut off basement mark; check betting, but he's shown little. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (50/1 +24%) Foshan |
50/1(+24%) | (11) Foshan 50/1, 80/1, last of 11 in handicap at this course (8f) 10 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Others are more appealing. Remains a maiden after 17 starts and it's a long time since he's shown any worthwhile form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (25/1 -14%) Eva Rosie |
25/1(-14%) | (7) Eva Rosie 25/1, 6/1, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. 13-race maiden but frequently placed this year (including here); each-way contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (33/1 -65%) Highland Lil |
33/1(-65%) | (9) Highland Lil 33/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 22/1) 17 days ago. Needs to get back on track. 3yo whose mark continues to fall but she's yet to threaten across her 11 starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (9/1 +10%) Foursome |
9/1(+10%) | (3) Foursome 9/1, One win from 30 Flat runs. 14/1, bit below form eighth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good) 52 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Olly Williams. Not without hope in a weak affair. On a handy mark on this year's best but she's struggled on her last four runs; yard debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (80/1 -21%) Scarbados |
80/1(-21%) | (12) Scarbados 80/1, Last of 11 in handicap (80/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 17 days ago. Plenty to prove at present. 3yo who is 0-10 and has struggled to get competitive. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
VIOLETA was in winning form over this track and trip on her penultimate start and, after shaping like she was still in good heart when a staying-on fifth off 2lb higher here most recently, she gets the tentative vote to return to winning ways. Keen Interest wasn't seen to best effect when fourth over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last time and he merits respect easing in trip, while recent Redcar runner-up Visitant is also noted.
KEEN INTEREST isn't the most straightforward but he shaped quite well last time and this isn't a strong race by any means, so it's worth taking a chance that things drop right for him. Violeta and Visitant also arrive in reasonable form and should be involved.
Topweight VIOLETA won over C&D in September before a fair fifth here last time in a hotter race than this, and she gets the nod.

1st (1) (4/1 -60%) Jkr Cobbler |
4/1(-60%) | (1) Jkr Cobbler 4/1, 10/3, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 10 days ago, readily. Carries penalty. Shortlist material. Major return to form for last week's C&D 0-60 win (RPR 71); 3lb well in despite penalty.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (11/1 +21%) Concert Boy |
11/1(+21%) | (7) Concert Boy 11/1, C&D winner. Below form sixth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (5/1) 6 days ago, slowly away. Blinkers back on. Not ruled out. Headed only close home in a C&D 0-52 last month, and excuses since; 1lb badly in.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/4 +50%) Drakeholes |
9/4(+50%) | (6) Drakeholes 9/4, 4-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Won 9-runner handicap (4/1) at this C&D 2 days ago by neck from Tickets. Can make his presence felt if the race doesn't come too soon. C&D record now 4-10 following Tuesday's late denial of Tickets; penalised now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (11/4 +75%) Operation Gimcrack |
11/4(+75%) | (2) Operation Gimcrack 11/4, 17/2, seventh of 11 in handicap at this course (8f) 16 days ago, finding test too much. Return to this trip is in his favour and he's well worthy of interest. Near-3l C&D fifth on belated seasonal return, but lesser efforts since; down 3lb more.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (3/1 +73%) Commander Crouch |
3/1(+73%) | (5) Commander Crouch 3/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Respectable third of 6 in handicap (10/1) at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 14 days ago. Significantly back down in trip. First run for yard after leaving Jim Boyle. Strong candidate on form of autumn 2023, less so on more recent efforts; stable debut.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (66/1 -230%) Sky Lagoon |
66/1(-230%) | (3) Sky Lagoon 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in maiden (40/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 28 days ago, not knocked about. Makes handicap debut. Bred to do better, so worth monitoring in the betting. Going the right way in 7f Tapeta qualifying events, but initial mark is far from a gift.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (200/1 -150%) Rajawail |
200/1(-150%) | (8) Rajawail 200/1, Third of 4 in novice at this C&D (50/1) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not easy to make a case for. Run of things in a C&D novice latest but ultimately beaten 11l; others persuade more.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
JKR COBBLER bolted up over this track and trip recently and a 5lb penalty may not be enough to stop Iain Jardine's charge from following up here. This step back in trip is an interesting move for Commander Crouch and he merits respect on his debut for the Gemma Tutty stable. Concert Boy wasn't seen to best effect when sixth over C&D last week, but he could bounce back based previous form.
JKR COBBLER confirmed the encouragement of previous efforts when scoring in good style over C&D last time and he's worth a chance to go in again under a penalty. Drakeholes and Tickets look the main dangers but both face a quick turnaround.
3lb well in for a comfy C&D success last week, JKR COBBLER (nap) is not easily opposed.

1st (2) (9/2 +72%) Edge Ofthe Unknown |
9/2(+72%) | (2) Edge Ofthe Unknown 9/2, Foaled March 7. Quality Road colt. Half-brother to winner abroad by Karakontie, from the family of high-class winner up to 10.5f (2-y-o 5f-1m winner) Divine Proportions. Trainer has a 25% strike-rate with 2yos here; interesting on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3/1 -9%) Fort George |
3/1(-9%) | (3) Fort George 3/1, 38,000 gns foal, 78,000 gns yearling, Territories colt. Brother to useful 8.3f/9f winner Pink Carnation. Fourth of 9 in novice at Kempton (8f, 22/1) on debut 24 days ago, the only one from the rear to get involved in a race which placed a firm emphasis on speed. Sure to improve and one to consider. Promising 4th on last month's debut at Kempton and could be sharper for that experience. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (50/1 +0%) Raulin |
50/1(+0%) | (8) Raulin 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in maiden at York (7.9f, heavy, 40/1) 26 days ago. From a good family and handicaps next year could be where he makes his mark. Has shown some ability on both starts but needs to take a step forward today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (28/1 -27%) Pride Of Donegal |
28/1(-27%) | (7) Pride Of Donegal 28/1, Foaled March 10. 100,000 gns yearling, Saxon Warrior colt. Half-brother to several winners, including very smart 9.5f-15f winner One Foot In Heaven and useful 9.5f winner Queen. Dam won Champion Stakes. One to note on debut. Very much catches the eye on breeding and no surprise if he gives a good account on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (11) (4/1 -78%) White Crown Star |
4/1(-78%) | (11) White Crown Star 4/1, 200,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Better for debut when third of 10 in maiden at Yarmouth (7f, firm) 50 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Sir Michael Stoute. May well do better again and one to consider. 3rd at Yarmouth on his second start and bred to be suited by this longer trip; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (12/1 -50%) One Eye Jack |
12/1(-50%) | (1) One Eye Jack 12/1, Successful in the mud first time up at Haydock over this trip in September but always behind still looking green in sales race at Longchamp (good to soft, 8/1) 33 days ago. Might be vulnerable in a pretty deep-looking novice. Won on debut; well beaten in valuable French race since but retains potential; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (7/2 +22%) Yaa Min |
7/2(+22%) | (12) Yaa Min 7/2, Foaled March 2. 370,000 gns foal, Frankel colt. Half-brother to several winners, notably smart German winner up to 11f Wonderful Moon. One to note on debut. 370,000gns foal; by Frankel; trainer's 2yos in fine form; could play leading role on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (14/1 +30%) San Munoz |
14/1(+30%) | (10) San Munoz 14/1, 170,000 gns yearling, Kingman colt. Dam, smart winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 7f-1m winner) who stayed 1¾m. 20/1, fourth of 7 in novice at Yarmouth (6f, soft) on debut 23 days ago. Significantly up in trip and open to improvement. Improvement needed on second start but the step up in trip could help; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (200/1 -100%) Return With Gold |
200/1(-100%) | (9) Return With Gold 200/1, Foaled April 28. Ten Sovereigns gelding. Half-brother to useful winner up to 1m Aspen Mountain and 6f-7f winner Crystal Dawn. Half-brother to two winners but he's probably best watched on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (12/1 -20%) Kuredu King |
12/1(-20%) | (5) Kuredu King 12/1, 300,000 gns yearling, Churchill colt. Brother to useful 7f winner Tuscan and half-brother to 7.4f winner Abbadia. 6/1, eighth of 16 in maiden at Doncaster (7f, soft) on debut 13 days ago, meeting trouble and not knocked about. Sure to improve. Well beaten in midfield on recent debut but no surprise if he takes sizeable step forward. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (4) (14/1 -27%) Gallic Legend |
14/1(-27%) | (4) Gallic Legend 14/1, Foaled March 19. €215,000 foal, €300,000 yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Brother to useful winner up to 1¼m Irish Legend and 9f-10.2f winner Invisible Friend and half-brother to 5f-1m winner Torch Lit. Appealing on paper. Future probably lies over further but price tag means he's worth a second look on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (6) (200/1 -100%) Our Oasis |
200/1(-100%) | (6) Our Oasis 200/1, Foaled March 21. 42,000 gns foal, 30,000 gns yearling, Oasis Dream gelding. Brother to useful 2-y-o 6f-7f winner Gobi Desert and half-brother to 1¼m winner Villa Castello and 11f winner Family Love. Brother to Listed winner Gobi Desert but probably one for further down the line. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
FORT GEORGE was fourth over a mile at Kempton on his debut last month and, with the promise of more to come, he gets the vote to land a breakthrough victory at the second time of asking. White Crown Star arrives on the back of an admirable third over 7f at Yarmouth in September and, stepping up in trip, he looks the main danger to the selection. Quality Road colt Edge Ofthe Unknown is also a fascinating contender on his debut.
FORT GEORGE made an eye-catching start at Kempton last month, faring best of those held up in a race which placed a firm emphasis on speed, and he seems sure to improve. He gets the vote over newcomer Yaa Min and White Crown Star in a pretty deep-looking novice.
Having been a promising fourth on last month's debut at Kempton, the attractively bred FORT GEORGE is taken to come out on top.

1st (6) (6/1 +40%) Anthropologist |
6/1(+40%) | (6) Anthropologist 6/1, 13/2, fourth of 7 in nursery at Southwell (8.1f) 33 days ago. Looking exposed. 0-7 and not progressing; not fully exposed as a miler but others look more persuasive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7/4 +50%) Chesneys Charm |
7/4(+50%) | (1) Chesneys Charm 7/4, Latest win here in October. 11/2, third of 4 in nursery at Doncaster (8f, soft) 13 days ago. Not discounted back on AW. Three 7f AW wins to his name; stays a mile; down in grade with good claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/4 -38%) Pivotal Days |
9/4(-38%) | (3) Pivotal Days 9/4, 6/1, career best when winning 5-runner nursery at Haydock (7.2f, heavy) 20 days ago, proving a different proposition ridden prominently under more testing conditions. Good chance he can strike again. Impressed on heavy ground last month (7f); 6lb higher now and facing different conditions. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (9/1 +10%) Space Raider |
9/1(+10%) | (4) Space Raider 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below form fifth of 15 in novice at Redcar (8f, soft, 25/1) 20 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Makes handicap debut. His standout effort came over 6f; looked stretched by a mile latest; handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (13/2 -30%) Shielas Well |
13/2(-30%) | (5) Shielas Well 13/2, C&D winner and followed up in 5-runner nursery (evens) at Musselburgh (8f, good to firm) 53 days ago, bit in hand. Up in grade but got to be respected in hat-trick bid. 2-2 over a mile, including C&D; up two grades today but could have more to offer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (11/1 -10%) Sands Of Indi |
11/1(-10%) | (2) Sands Of Indi 11/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 3/1, sixth of 11 in novice at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) 50 days ago, worst of draw. Runner-up first 2 starts so there is encouragement for her now handicapping. Best effort came here (7f) in September; may improve for handicaps/longer trip. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A comfortable winner over C&D on her penultimate start, SHIELAS WELL has since followed up at Musselburgh and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to bring up the hat-trick. The progressive daughter of Saxon Warrior gets the vote ahead of Pivotal Days, who relished the switch to heavy ground when getting off the mark over 7f at Haydock last month. He has failed to win over 1m on two previous attempts though, and it may be course winner Chesneys Charm that provides the chief threat to the selection.
PIVOTAL DAYS was impressive when dominating his rivals from the front at Haydock 3 weeks ago and could go in again now the penny has dropped. The hat-trick seeking Shielas Well could be the danger, ahead of Sands of Indi.
Grant Tuer looks to hold the key and CHESNEYS CHARM can win again on the AW. Shielas Well is feared most.

1st (5) (13/8 +41%) True Promise |
13/8(+41%) | (5) True Promise 13/8, 3 wins from 8 runs, including 2 here (3-5 on all-weather). 11/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 14 days ago, overcoming the widest draw and always just doing enough once in front. Back up 3 lb but good claims again. Tapeta record of 1121; defied the widest stall at Southwell latest; 5f a query; unexposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (10/3 +63%) Jenever |
10/3(+63%) | (4) Jenever 10/3, C&D winner. Latest win at Sandown in June. Eleventh of 14 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D 16 days ago. Largely consistent, including on all-weather, so appeals as the type to bounce back quickly. C&D winner; below par here last time but there were excuses; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (9/2 -35%) Muker |
9/2(-35%) | (1) Muker 9/2, C&D winner. 18/1, good second of 14 in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. Big player if backing that up. Two best runs this year have come on Tapeta, including C&D; should go well again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (16/1 -33%) Ecclesiastical |
16/1(-33%) | (6) Ecclesiastical 16/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in September. Bit below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, heavy, 15/2) 22 days ago. Tongue strap back on. This is tough. Conditions shouldn't be an issue but he will need a career best to come out on top. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (11/2 -120%) Looking For Lynda |
11/2(-120%) | (2) Looking For Lynda 11/2, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap at Haydock (5f, good, 12/1) 61 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. In good heart ahead of his first run here. Still to win this year but usually runs well in stronger company; AW a query but capable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (8/1 -14%) Curious Rover |
8/1(-14%) | (3) Curious Rover 8/1, Latest win at Redcar in October under this rider. Eighth of 10 in handicap (11/1) at Catterick (5f, heavy) 19 days ago. This is easier and he went close on his only other run here a year ago. Struggled in Class 2 events either side of a Class 4 Redcar win; promise in one C&D run. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Not beaten far in valuable handicaps the last twice, this represents a significant drop in grade for LOOKING FOR LYNDA, who remains on his last winning mark. The four-year-old may be able to regain the winning thread at the main expense of True Promise, who should not be inconvenienced by dropping to 5f having shown plenty of pace when scoring over further at Southwell last time out. Jenever and Muker are capable of being in the shake-up as well.
A trappy sprint handicap in which the 3-y-os could come to the fore, TRUE PROMISE taken to continue his fine record on tapeta and strike at the expense of Curious Rover. Muker ran well here last time and must be a big player if backing that up.
Jenever wasn't seen to best effect here last time but the progressive TRUE PROMISE can make it 4-5 on Tapeta.

2nd (8) (9/2 +36%) Darlo Pride |
9/2(+36%) | (8) Darlo Pride 9/2, 10/3, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 10 days ago. Heading back in the right direction recently and still unexposed for this stable, so worth taking a chance on. Best run for new yard when 2nd at Southwell ten days ago; one of three runners for M Dods. |

7/1(+13%) | (9) Bibendum 7/1, 9/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 17 days ago. Has slipped to a feasible mark and warrants consideration after returning to form. 0-9 but ran well for 2nd at Wolverhampton 17 days ago; 5f here should be fine; e-w shout. |

4th (5) (10/3 +52%) Castan |
10/3(+52%) | (5) Castan 10/3, C&D winner. Creditable third of 10 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D 10 days ago. Usually gives his running here and deserves respect. 10lb lower than for a C&D win in March; solid third here ten days ago; contender. |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (16/1 -129%) Winged Messenger |
16/1(-129%) | (2) Winged Messenger 16/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (5f, heavy, 9/2) 17 days ago, left poorly placed. Makes tapeta debut. Becoming well treated and can't be ruled out down in grade. Not fully exposed but he needs to rebound from two lesser efforts; AW debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (28/1 -100%) Azucena |
28/1(-100%) | (11) Azucena 28/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October. Seventh of 9 in handicap (9/1) at Southwell (5f) 21 days ago. Needs to get back on track. C&D win last month has worked out but she failed to back it up at Southwell last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (16/1 +0%) Gustav Graves |
16/1(+0%) | (6) Gustav Graves 16/1, C&D winner. 4 wins from 15 runs this year. Below form fifth of 9 in handicap (18/1) at this C&D 10 days ago. Others are more appealing. Five AW wins last winter; back to a more realistic mark now; full revival not far away. |

9th (7) (12/1 0%) Let's Go Hugo |
12/1(0%) | (7) Let's Go Hugo 12/1, C&D winner. 5/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 24 days ago, slowly away. Had been shaping up well prior to latest effort. C&D win off this mark in April; not seen to best effect last time; chance if rebounding. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (20/1 +0%) Delagate This Lord |
20/1(+0%) | (4) Delagate This Lord 20/1, Respectable third of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Hamilton (5f, good to soft) 38 days ago. On a fair mark and could be on the premises again. Good runs on turf the last twice; has no comparable AW form as yet. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
BIBENDUM showed what he is capable of when breaking well at Wolverhampton last time out, and he is likely to build on that promising effort off an unchanged rating. He can get off the mark ahead of Darlo Pride, who bounced back to form with a runner-up effort at Southwell recently. Strong Johnson's last success came over C&D a year ago and he must be noted, along with Castan and Delagate This Lord.
DARLO PRIDE is well handicapped and produced his best effort since joining this yard when runner-up at Southwell last time, so he's fancied to get the better of stablemate Lord Abama, who scored here earlier in the week. Bibendum is another one to consider.
A trappy race in which dual C&D winner CASTAN is tentatively preferred to Let's Go Hugo.

1st (7) (6/1 +8%) Jewel Maker |
6/1(+8%) | (7) Jewel Maker 6/1, C&D winner. 10/1, creditable 3½ lengths second of 11 to Barleybrown in handicap at this C&D 16 days ago, suited by way race developed. Place possibilities. Chased home Barleybrown here 16 days ago and 7lb better off today; each-way claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (9/2 +18%) Mercurius Power |
9/2(+18%) | (4) Mercurius Power 9/2, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in August. Good third of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 8/1) 10 days ago, nearest finish. One to consider. Unlucky in running when 3rd at Southwell ten days ago; strong claims off the same mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (5/2 +25%) Barleybrown |
5/2(+25%) | (3) Barleybrown 5/2, Temperamental sort. 4-time C&D winner. 4 wins from 14 runs this year. 10/3, good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Clearly in good nick and, provided that he is able to keep things in check, another bold show could be on the way. Four C&D wins for R Carr this year; good 2nd last week; up in weights but improving. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (13/2 +13%) Falcon Nine |
13/2(+13%) | (8) Falcon Nine 13/2, Bit below form seventh of 13 in handicap (8/1) at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Improved when a clear second on his penultimate start at Yarmouth and he's of interest here based on that evidence. 13-race maiden; not at his best last time and others look more persuasive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (11/1 +21%) Golspie |
11/1(+21%) | (1) Golspie 11/1, 20/1, below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, heavy) 12 days ago. Decent effort when fourth on penultimate start at Wolverhampton off a 4 lb higher mark and he's now without each-way hope. Edging down the weights while retaining ability; not discounted at this level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (15/2 -7%) Alpine Sierra |
15/2(-7%) | (6) Alpine Sierra 15/2, Respectable 3½ lengths third of 11 to Barleybrown in handicap (12/1) at this C&D 16 days ago, suited by way race developed. Now 7 lb better off with that rival and he's a serious each-way player. Yet to win this year but has threatened, including C&D latest; each-way shout. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (50/1 -150%) Sandret |
50/1(-150%) | (10) Sandret 50/1, C&D winner. Sixth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (8f, good to firm, 28/1) 72 days ago. Needs to get back on track and while he would have a chance if able to do so, one or two of these nevertheless make more appeal. C&D win off 8lb higher in 2022; quiet this year and others are stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (28/1 -75%) Pallas Lord |
28/1(-75%) | (5) Pallas Lord 28/1, Four-time C&D winner. 5 wins from 12 runs this year. Ninth of 11 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D 20 days ago. Others make more appeal on this occasion. In fine form here early in the year but not shone in two runs back from a summer break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (16/1 +20%) Cusack |
16/1(+20%) | (2) Cusack 16/1, Three-time C&D winner. Eighth of 11 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 9 days ago and he needs to bounce back in a major way. On a dangerous mark if two runs last month have sharpened him up; betting useful. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (7/1 +30%) Unreal Connection |
7/1(+30%) | (9) Unreal Connection 7/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2023. Below form sixth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 15/2) 15 days ago. Makes tapeta debut for new yard and she will be a danger to all if she puts her best foot forward. Infrequent winner for A Perrrett but has the ability to go well on her stable debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
BARLEYBROWN has turned a corner in recent months with the four-year-old winning twice over C&D from his last four starts and his latest second here suggested that the improvement shown is unlikely to stop any time soon. Jewel Maker (second) and Alpine Sierra (third) chased home the selection last month and are expected to play similar roles once again, while Mercurius Power completes the shortlist based on his Southwell third.
It can pay to give another chance to FALCON NINE, who was left with too much to do at Kempton last time and he had previously stepped up when a good second at Yarmouth in September. Mercurius Power is a live danger, while Alpine Sierra, who is taken to reverse last month's C&D placings with Barleybrown and Jewel Maker, also has claims in a competitive handicap.
Barleybrown and Unreal Connection are high on the list but MERCURIUS POWER looked in top form when third at Southwell last time.

1st (2) (5/2 -43%) Hk Fourteen |
5/2(-43%) | (2) Hk Fourteen 5/2, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap (11/4) at Bath (5.7f, soft) 7 days ago, kept up to work. Will be tough to beat under a penalty here, provided he takes to this surface. Landed a gamble in fine style last week despite hanging left; 6lb well in under a penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (15/2 +32%) Captain Vallo |
15/2(+32%) | (3) Captain Vallo 15/2, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. 9/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. Place possibilities. Split two of today's rivals when 3rd over C&D last week; other stronger for win purposes. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (3/1 +40%) Fircombe Hall |
3/1(+40%) | (1) Fircombe Hall 3/1, Six-time C&D winner. 3 wins from 19 runs this year. 7/2, good second of 10 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. Solid each-way chance. Multiple C&D winner who has run well here in two of his last three starts; solid claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (5/1 +44%) Bernie The Bear |
5/1(+44%) | (8) Bernie The Bear 5/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Second of 10 in handicap at this C&D (15/2) 9 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and unlikely he will be far away. C&D winner who ran well for second here last week; cheekpieces return; contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (11/2 +15%) Urban Dandy |
11/2(+15%) | (4) Urban Dandy 11/2, Course winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2023. Creditable second of 11 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 11/4) 7 days ago, no match for winner. Visor on 1st time and he's not without each-way hope. Poor strike-rate but comes here on the back of two good 7f runs; change of headgear today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (16/1 -129%) Evoluir |
16/1(-129%) | (7) Evoluir 16/1, Produced a career-best when landing a 11-runner handicap at Southwell (6.1f, 6/1) 17 days ago. 3 lb rise fair enough and merits respect in follow-up bid on debut for new connections. Snug 6f win at Southwell last month; sold for £4,000 the following day; still on fair mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (125/1 -89%) Robespierre |
125/1(-89%) | (9) Robespierre 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Yarmouth (6f, soft, 66/1) 16 days ago. Readily passed over. Poor form in four starts, including handicap debut last month; hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (17/2 +39%) Noble Captain |
17/2(+39%) | (6) Noble Captain 17/2, C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 9 days ago. Another who makes some each-way appeal. Two C&D wins this year but finished behind Bernie The Bear here last week. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (150/1 -127%) Lady Ursula |
150/1(-127%) | (5) Lady Ursula 150/1, 150/1, seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 45 days ago and she looks set for another struggle. Huge prices and modest form in two runs for this yard after long layoff; headgear back now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
The drop back to sprinting made a big difference to HK FOURTEEN when improving plenty from his handicap bow to score at Bath last Thursday. Tony Carroll's gelding is unlikely to have any issue in backing up under a 5lb penalty, despite this being a competitive race for the grade. Evoluir debuts for Micky Hammond after winning at Southwell last time and boasts solid credentials, while Urban Dandy and Fircombe Hall appear best of the remainder.
Sprinting is clearly HK FOURTEEN's game judged on his much-improved, clear-cut success dropped to 5.7f at Bath last week. Assuming that he will prove equally effective on tapeta, the lightly-raced 4-y-o will take plenty of stopping under a penalty. Fellow last-time-out winner Evoluir gets the nod for forecast purposes ahead of Fircombe Hall and Urban Dandy.
HK Fourteen is the obvious starting point but FIRCOMBE HALL loves it here and looks a sporting alternative.
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.
