40/1(-150%) | (2) Mafia Power 40/1, Pulled up in novice hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft, 50/1). Off 6 months. Significantly up in trip on first Flat start for this yard and he has a lot to prove. Dual Flat winner; went wrong way over hurdles but back on Flat with yard among winners. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (50/1 +0%) Star Of Markinch |
50/1(+0%) | (11) Star Of Markinch 50/1, Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at this course (12.4f, 80/1) 29 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Reached the frame twice at Musselburgh this autumn but well beaten back here latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (15/8 +25%) Daaris |
15/8(+25%) | (1) Daaris 15/8, Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 9/2, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 7 days ago, running on. Shortlist material given current vein of form. Has a win and close second at Wolverhampton this month; bold show likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (4/1 +38%) Annandale |
4/1(+38%) | (3) Annandale 4/1, Course winner. 10/1, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 9 days ago, denied a clear run which costed him a place finish. Significantly back up in trip. Has mostly run with credit since snapping losing run in August; stays 2m; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (13/2 +19%) Zephlyn |
13/2(+19%) | (4) Zephlyn 13/2, C&D winner. 12/1 and tongue strap on, respectable fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Musselburgh (15.6f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Well held over C&D in October but normally pretty reliable on the AW. C&D winner but flopped when fav here in October; well-held fourth over hurdles since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (33/1 +0%) Bamboo Bay |
33/1(+0%) | (10) Bamboo Bay 33/1, Latest win at Redcar in September. Sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (12.4f, 33/1) 9 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Struggled since 1m6f turf win in September. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (11/1 -120%) Socialist Agenda |
11/1(-120%) | (8) Socialist Agenda 11/1, Won back-to-back AW handicaps fitted with a visor in May but unable to continue the good work when tenth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Worcester (20f, good). Off 6 months. Cheekpieces on. 2-2 on AW Flat in visor in spring but not so good in these cheekpieces over hurdles since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (4/1 +80%) Cosmic Soul |
4/1(+80%) | (5) Cosmic Soul 4/1, 22/1 and tongue strap on for first time, 19¼ lengths sixth of 8 to Bamboo Bay in handicap at Redcar (14f, good to firm). Off 95 days. Makes AW debut. Well-held sixth at Redcar in September, taking record to 0-13; yards also runs Mafia Power. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (6) (10/1 -150%) Sophar Sogood |
10/1(-150%) | (6) Sophar Sogood 10/1, Latest win at Kempton in August. Good third of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 11/2) 52 days ago. Likely to give it another good go from the same mark. Multiple AW winner and fair third at Kempton latest; thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (66/1 -65%) Typewritten |
66/1(-65%) | (9) Typewritten 66/1, Unreliable sort. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 80/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at this course (12.4f) 29 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Not easy to make a case for. Three-time Tapeta winner but hard to draw positives from two comeback runs this autumn. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (16/1 -14%) Somebodycomegether |
16/1(-14%) | (7) Somebodycomegether 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for first time, good second of 8 in handicap at Catterick (15.9f, heavy, 66/1) 53 days ago, no match for winner. Unexposed over 2m so one to consider. Suited by step up to 2m when 5l second at Catterick latest; unexposed as a stayer. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
DAARIS was on target over 1m6f at Wolverhampton on his penultimate start before going agonisingly close over the extended 2m there a week ago. He faces a few out-of-form rivals here and from just 1lb higher, he can regain the winning sequence. Socialist Agenda, who won twice on the Flat earlier this year before finishing down the field over hurdles at Worcester in June, is of interest on his return. Sophar Sogood heads the remainder.
DAARIS had been running very well in slighter better handicaps than this at Wolverhampton in recent weeks so he looks the answer. Socialist Agenda may well get back on the up following an absence returned to the AW, with Annandale also of interest.
If DAARIS can reproduce his recent Wolverhampton form he may be good for a second win of the month.

1st (4) (16/1 -60%) Electric Avenue |
16/1(-60%) | (4) Electric Avenue 16/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap (13/2) at Kempton (6f) 66 days ago. Significantly up in trip on first run for yard after leaving George Baker with a tongue strap applied. Ex-George Baker; 4,000gns buy; two best runs over 7f at Brighton; stamina to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (7/4 +65%) Callianassa |
7/4(+65%) | (5) Callianassa 7/4, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Found only Mambha too good over C&D but not in the same form when eighth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 5/1) 16 days ago, slowly away. 0-18; good second to Mambha (4lb worse off) over C&D two runs ago; not so good last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (14/1 -75%) Disclosure |
14/1(-75%) | (3) Disclosure 14/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 7 days ago. Step back up in trip will help her cause. 0-7; beaten 10.5l on last two starts, latest in cheekpieces (on again); bit to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (15/8 +0%) Mambha |
15/8(+0%) | (1) Mambha 15/8, Blinkered for first time, career best when winning 10-runner handicap (7/2) at this C&D 28 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Callianassa. Likely to give it another good go despite 5 lb rise. Two C&D wins from last three starts, latest in blinkers (on here); up 5lb; should go well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (7/2 -75%) Fior Di Bosco |
7/2(-75%) | (2) Fior Di Bosco 7/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 5/2). Off 131 days. Makes tapeta debut and she's certainly in the right hands. Promise in three novices but below-par on handicap/AW debut (favourite); can do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (12/1 +0%) Create |
12/1(+0%) | (6) Create 12/1, Latest win at Doncaster in July. Eleventh of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 11 days ago. Below last winning mark but others still more persuasive. 1m AW winner on debut; has since won over 7f on turf; on a fair mark; each-way chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
MAMBHA, a C&D winner on two of her last three starts, including when defeating Callianassa (second), is still unexposed on the all-weather. She can keep progressing and defy a subsequent 5lb rise, although it would come as no surprise were Fior Di Bosco, who has been given some time off since disappointing on her handicap bow in August, to step forward. Disclosure is noted too.
We probably haven't seen the best of FIOR DI BOSCO after just 4 runs and, given the yard she represents, an improved showing would come as no surprise. Mambha and Callianassa finished first and second in a C&D handicap recently and they head the opposition.
It could be worth giving another chance to FIOR DI BOSCO, who was below par on her handicap debut in August but has had a break.

2nd (6) (8/11 +9%) Orangesandlemons |
8/11(+9%) | (6) Orangesandlemons 8/11, Promising type. 10/1, second of 9 in novice at this C&D on debut 28 days ago, finishing with running left. Open to plenty of improvement so very much the one to beat. Promising second on C&D debut; the one to beat with improvement likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (11/4 +8%) Hush Puppy |
11/4(+8%) | (3) Hush Puppy 11/4, Promising type. Fifth of 11 in maiden at Lingfield (8f, AW, 6/4) on debut 18 days ago. Was backed as though clearly thought capable if much better so he might improve a lot. Green and faded into fifth on 1m debut but went off at 6-4 so seemingly well regarded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (28/1 +72%) Candle Of Time |
28/1(+72%) | (8) Candle Of Time 28/1, Twice-raced filly. 250/1, sixth of 11 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f) 47 days ago. Well beaten both starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (50/1 -100%) Crangy |
50/1(-100%) | (9) Crangy 50/1, Foaled April 8. Cable Bay filly. Dam, winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 7f winner), half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Isla Kai. Ouf of a 7f-1m2f winner in these silks but would still be a surprise winner on debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (20/1 -233%) Magic Topissima |
20/1(-233%) | (10) Magic Topissima 20/1, Twice-raced filly. 4/1, knew more than on debut when third of 10 in maiden at this C&D. Off 177 days. Much better effort in June when third over C&D; off since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (40/1 +39%) Ribbon Is A Dancer |
40/1(+39%) | (5) Ribbon Is A Dancer 40/1, Twice-raced colt. 80/1, last of 11 in novice at Kempton (7f) 10 days ago. More one handicaps later on judged on his two runs in recent weeks. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
ORANGESANDLEMONS was slowly away on her debut last month but she picked up strongly close home to fill the runner-up spot. Ed Bethell's filly will know more this time around and, with improvement on the cards, she can go one better. Hush Puppy failed to justify strong market support at Lingfield on his first start but remains of interest. Ardaddy warrants a market check.
ORANGESANDLEMONS made a very positive start to her career when runner-up over C&D a month ago and with improvement on the cards, she'll take some stopping. Hush Puppy was too green to ever really look like landing a notable gamble on debut at Lingfield 3 weeks ago but he may show a lot more this time.
Hush Puppy is seemingly well regarded but the percentage call is ORANGESANDLEMONS on the back of her encouraging C&D debut second.

1st (4) (5/2 +9%) Startling |
5/2(+9%) | (4) Startling 5/2, Latest win at Chelmsford City in October. 4/1, respectable fifth of 10 in nursery at Lingfield (5f, AW) 18 days ago. Has to be taken seriously with this stiffer track expected to suit. Dual nursery winner who went close at Chelmsford on her penultimate run; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (13/2 +7%) Cuban Lynx |
13/2(+7%) | (9) Cuban Lynx 13/2, 15/2, fifth of 7 in nursery at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 28 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Visor on 1st time and each-way claims from his basement mark. Eight-race maiden and he needs to find more with visor added. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (8/1 +68%) Auntie Jo |
8/1(+68%) | (2) Auntie Jo 8/1, Handed a stiff mark judged on her exploits in maiden/novice company and not threatened since going handicapping, eighth of 11 in nursery (66/1) at this course (6f) 29 days ago. Eased 3 lb on the back of that but her yard look to hold much stronger claims with Startling. Well held in all six runs and needs a transformation on this drop back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (14/1 +58%) What What What |
14/1(+58%) | (6) What What What 14/1, Little in the way of solid form and she failed to improve when tenth of 11 on nursery debut at this course (6f) 29 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Step forward required. Has struggled in his five runs and needs this drop to 5f to make a big difference. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (9/4 +44%) Keats House |
9/4(+44%) | (1) Keats House 9/4, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/3, failed to improve for switch to handicaps when sixth of 9 in nursery at this course (6f) 46 days ago, weakening last ½f. Cheekpieces on 1st time and it remains early days at least. Unexposed gelding who looks a possible improver with headgear added on this drop to 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (9/1 +10%) Coul Harswell |
9/1(+10%) | (7) Coul Harswell 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in novice at Beverley (5f, good to soft, 40/1) 88 days ago. Debut effort at Catterick wasn't without promise and interesting if the market spoke in her favour now tackling nurseries back from a break. Still unexposed but he needs improvement switched to AW on nursery debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (20/1 -100%) Maid Of Killybegs |
20/1(-100%) | (8) Maid Of Killybegs 20/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 28/1) 35 days ago. Significantly down in trip for handicap debut but she's another who needs to take a marked step forward. Well-bred filly who goes handicapping off lowly mark; needs close look on this drop to 5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (33/1 -106%) Navarre Special |
33/1(-106%) | (3) Navarre Special 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 80/1, fifth of 7 in maiden at Brighton (7f, good to soft) in September. Opening mark demands a big step forward on debut for new yard Unexposed filly who could show more dropped to 5f on nursery/stable debut; watch market. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (9/1 -80%) Missile Mac |
9/1(-80%) | (5) Missile Mac 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good fourth of 10 in nursery at Southwell (7.1f, 13/2) 8 days ago, running on. Down in trip now and she's one to consider. Needs improvement dropped to 5f but it's still early days and she has a speedy pedigree. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (80/1 -220%) Keely |
80/1(-220%) | (10) Keely 80/1, Profitable filly who has failed to beat a rival in trio of maiden/novice contests in recent months. Hard to warm to on handicap debut. Failed to beat a rival in her three qualifying runs, with a best RPR of 27; down the list. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
MISSILE MAC didn't cut much ice in her qualifying runs, but she shaped with promise when finishing fourth on her nursery debut over 7f at Southwell recently. Eased 2lb tackling 5f for the first time, she gets the vote to land the spoils. Keats House posted a low-key effort on his nursery bow when sixth over 6f here last month, but an improved display would come as no surprise now sporting first-time cheekpieces on his first start since being gelded. Startling is noted as well.
Dual winner STARTLING brings the most solid credentials to the table and, with this stiffer track than she has encountered of late fancied to suit, all looks set fair for a big run. Missile Mac and Keats House may emerge as the lead dangers.
This is tricky but it might be worth siding with KEATS HOUSE, who looks a possible improver dropped to 5f after a gelding operation.

1st (1) (9/2 +31%) Nikovo |
9/2(+31%) | (1) Nikovo 9/2, C&D winner. 14/1, first run since leaving David O'Meara when respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago, short of room over 2f out and making late headway. Each-way claims if getting the breaks. Went close over C&D on penultimate run and has claims on this drop back in grade. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (9/1 -20%) Jewel Maker |
9/1(-20%) | (7) Jewel Maker 9/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest in November. Shaped as if still in good form when sixth of 12 in handicap (6/1) at this C&D 12 days ago, racing freely/left with lot to do. Another fancied to be in the mix. Held in sixth here last time but had a good spell over C&D before that; not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (18/1 -13%) Serenity Dream |
18/1(-13%) | (6) Serenity Dream 18/1, 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 17 days ago. Something to find on form. Regressive form since joining current yard and still has something to prove at this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (5/2 -11%) Lerwick |
5/2(-11%) | (4) Lerwick 5/2, Latest win at Beverley in August. Good second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 7/2) 61 days ago, running on. Has good chance on form. Went close on AW debut at Southwell latest and he's only 1lb higher here; key player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (6/1 -50%) Dingle |
6/1(-50%) | (3) Dingle 6/1, C&D winner. 3/1, respectable eighth of 13 in handicap at this C&D in July, outpaced 2f out before keeping on again final 1f. Not discounted back from a break having slipped in the weights. Disappointing over C&D in final run during summer; needs to get back near best on return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (9/2 +18%) The Cookstown Cafu |
9/2(+18%) | (5) The Cookstown Cafu 9/2, Dual course winner, the latest over C&D in October. 7/2, eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 9 days ago, weakening 1f out. Bounce back not out of the question. Two course wins for current yard but was disappointing here latest; needs to rebound again. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (4/1 +47%) Encourageable |
4/1(+47%) | (2) Encourageable 4/1, Showed the benefit of his reappearance when second of 10 in handicap at Leicester (7f, heavy) in October but took a backward step when eighth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (1m) 49 days ago. Bounce back not ruled out and his record on synthetics is 1-1. Tongue strap applied. Mixed messages since returning from a long absence in September and others are more solid. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (100/1 -300%) Royal Blaze |
100/1(-300%) | (8) Royal Blaze 100/1, First run since leaving Marcus Tregoning when tenth of 12 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D 12 days ago, always behind. Has work to do. Well held in last four runs including a 14l defeat over C&D on recent stable debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
LERWICK fared best of those ridden prominently when finishing runner-up over this trip at Southwell when last seen and, nudged up 1lb, it would be no surprise if he were able to go one place better this time around. Dingle was a beaten favourite in a similar contest here in the summer but he warrants a second look off 2lb lower returning from a break, while the class-dropping Nikovo is also noteworthy.
LERWICK ran up to his best making his all-weather debut when finishing a good second at Southwell in October and, lightly raced this year, he's of interest operating from a 1 lb higher mark. Dingle, back from a break, and Jewel Maker are others fancied to be thereabouts, as is top-weight Nikovo.
The vote goes to dual turf winner LERWICK, who made a bold bid when runner-up on his AW debut at Southwell in October.

1st (5) (10/3 +58%) Cajetan |
10/3(+58%) | (5) Cajetan 10/3, C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. 13/2, bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 39 days ago, no extra final 1f. Two AW wins (including C&D) earlier in year but hasn't fired since returning from break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (9/4 +44%) Mondammej |
9/4(+44%) | (9) Mondammej 9/4, Dual recent C&D winner. Went down narrowly in pursuit of his hat-trick when second of 9 in handicap (10/3) at this course (5f) 4 days ago, just failing. Clealry still thriving, so can regain the winning thread. Thrived since wind op, winning twice and close second (all 5f here); bold show likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (50/1 -52%) The Green Man |
50/1(-52%) | (3) The Green Man 50/1, 66/1, tailed-off last of 21 in handicap at York (6f, soft) 10 weeks ago, hampered before halfway and shuffled back. First run for yard after leaving Joseph Parr and it's hard to know what ability he retains. Hard to fancy on 2024 form but new yard can revive new recruits. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (18/1 -440%) Rhythm N Hooves |
18/1(-440%) | (1) Rhythm N Hooves 18/1, Course winner. Got back on track in a change of headgear returned to all-weather when fourth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 12 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Promise when running on for fourth over 5f at Wolverhampton latest; player back at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (13/2 +46%) Lakota Blue |
13/2(+46%) | (7) Lakota Blue 13/2, Looked a hard ride in first-time hood on first run since leaving Nigel Tinkler when 2½ lengths seventh of 13 to Alfa Whiteburd in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 12 days ago, carrying head awkwardly. Lightly raced this year, shaping as if recent C&D outing for new yard was needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (7/1 -8%) Fiscal Policy |
7/1(-8%) | (8) Fiscal Policy 7/1, C&D winner. 4 wins from 9 runs this year, latest at Wolverhampton in November. 4/1, found run of good form coming to a halt when sixth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 9 days ago, no extra last ½f. Bounce back required. Four wins since August, including C&D; not seen to best effect last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (7/2 -17%) True Promise |
7/2(-17%) | (2) True Promise 7/2, C&D winner. 4 wins from 11 runs this year, latest here in November. Wasted no time getting back to form when ½-length third of 13 to Alfa Whiteburd in handicap (7/2) at this C&D 12 days ago. Good record on AW, including two wins this autumn; third to Alfa Whiteburd here latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (22/1 -120%) Royal Pleasure |
22/1(-120%) | (6) Royal Pleasure 22/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Failed to build on the promise of his eye-catching Thirsk run when eighth of 21 in handicap (9/1) at York (6f, good) 7 months ago, very slowly away. No doubt he's well treated but he's not a straightforward betting proposition. Caught the eye twice for new yard in May; off since but has a good AW record. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
RHYTHM N HOOVES was making his first start since being readily outclassed in the Ayr Silver Cup when finishing an eye-catching fourth over the minimum trip at Wolverhampton earlier this month. Robert Cowell's charge was doing his best work late on that day and, back up to 6f off an unchanged mark, he looks the one to be with. True Promise was last seen finishing third in a slightly deeper race over C&D recently, and he cannot be underestimated. Mondammej is respected most of the remainder.
An open-looking sprint but MONDAMMEJ went down narrowly in pursuit of a C&D hat-trick on Tuesday and, clearly still thriving. Antony Britain's 7-y-o can regain the winning thread at the expense of Rhythm N Hooves, who got back on track in a change of headgear at Wolverhampton recently and could well build on that. Royal Pleasure was a big eye catcher on yard debut at Thirsk back in the spring, so he can edge out True Promise for third.
The return to 6f should suit RHYTHM N HOOVES who is narrowly preferred to the thriving Mondammej.

1st (5) (2/1 +33%) King's School |
2/1(+33%) | (5) King's School 2/1, 9/4 and blinkered for 1st time, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at this course (6f) 4 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip.

2nd (3) (7/4 +42%) William Dewhirst |
7/4(+42%) | (3) William Dewhirst 7/4, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (7/4) at this C&D 12 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so he merits serious consideration in his hat-trick bid despite taking a 5 lb rise.

Well in the mix. Won over C&D in September and was an eyecatching third here last time; possibilities. |

4th (10) (25/1 -56%) Ahamoment |
25/1(-56%) | (10) Ahamoment 25/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Ayr in September. Respectable 3¼ lengths fourth of 8 to William Dewhirst in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 12 days ago. Needs considering. Won at Ayr in September but he couldn't make an impact behind William Dewhirst here latest. |

6/1(-33%) | (11) Tomorrow Day 6/1, 4 wins from 12 runs this year. 11/2, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 12 days ago. Can go well again. Has won here in four of his last six starts including over C&D latest; shortlisted. |

6th (12) (6/1 +40%) Conquest Of Power |
6/1(+40%) | (12) Conquest Of Power 6/1, 3 wins from 20 runs this year. 12/1 and hooded for 1st time, eighth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Out of sorts since returning from a wind operation in August and has plenty to prove. |

7th (7) (18/1 -50%) Bobby Joe Leg |
18/1(-50%) | (7) Bobby Joe Leg 18/1, 7-time C&D winner. 4 wins from 13 runs this year. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (16/1) 18 days ago. In the mix. Won four in a row early this year but he's weighted near best and others look stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (16/1 +11%) Shaw Park |
16/1(+11%) | (8) Shaw Park 16/1, 3 wins from 21 runs this year. 18/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 18 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Triple turf winner but he's 0-19 on AW and was down the field over C&D last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (40/1 -21%) Tyke |
40/1(-21%) | (2) Tyke 40/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 12/1) 18 days ago. Has work to do. Has lots to prove and he's beaten only three rivals in four runs at this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (40/1 -186%) Kalganov |
40/1(-186%) | (4) Kalganov 40/1, C&D winner. Last of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good, 18/1). Off 6 months and needs to hit the ground running. On dangerous mark but he needs a major revival back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (16/1 +52%) Harry Magnus |
16/1(+52%) | (6) Harry Magnus 16/1, Had a wind op before coming in seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 8 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Has not shown much in four runs for current yard and needs a big turnaround. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
WILLIAM DEWHIRST produced a convincing display on his latest start to land a C&D double. A 5lb rise may not be enough to anchor Ben Haslam's inmate in his current frame of mind and he looks worth sticking with. King's School may prove the main threat stepping back up to 7f, while Tomorrow Day has now won four times here, though prevailed by only a neck last time.
KING'S SCHOOL rates just the pick of the weights so edges the vote in this very open-looking handicap. Hat-trick seeking William Dewhirst heads the list of dangers, with Alreet Cha, Bobby Joe Leg and Shaw Park all in the mix too. Streak Lightning completes the shortlist.
The vote goes to WILLIAM DEWHIRST (nap), who completed a C&D double in good style 12 days ago. Tomorrow Day is feared most.

5/1(-11%) | (9) Thunderstorm Katie 5/1, Not seen to best effect when seventh of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) 45 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip and finishing well under hand riding.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
JUST TYPICAL won nicely over course and distance last month and returns to this venue with every chance. The three-year-old finished a solid fourth over a longer trip at Southwell last time and is reunited with winning partner Ryan Kavanagh. Concert Boy has a bit to find with the selection but can still make his presence felt, while Filey Beach finished runner-up here in October and is not easily dismissed.
Lots with chances so at the likely odds it is worth siding with THUNDERSTORM KATIE to capitalise on a handy-looking mark now back at a more suitable trip and gain her breakthrough success. C&D scorer Concert Boy rates the pick of the rest, although the likes of Just Typical, Yaahobby and Angel of Antrim all need factoring in too.
It could be worth taking a chance on THUNDERSTORM KATIE getting off the mark on her third run for Jim Goldie.
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.
