9/4(+63%)
(4) Yorkstone 9/4, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D (11/1) 39 days ago (strong form, dead-heated with Soames Forsyte). 3 lb rise looks lenient now and he looks set for another big run.

LTO Selection:

17:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

BLUEBOTTLE BLUE seemed to find her level when touched off on her handicap debut at Newcastle and a 2lb rise for that narrow defeat could prove lenient as she looks to go one better. The booking of Tom Marquand is a big plus and the daughter of Zoffany gets the vote ahead of the hat-trick-seeking Soames Forsyte, who dead-heated with the reopposing Yorkstone over C&D just before Christmas.

The C&D handicap that saw YORKSTONE and Soames Forsyte share the spoils last month is proving to be strong form and that pair could come to the fore again, with Yorkstone taken to continue his improvement and make it 4 wins from his last 5 starts on the level. Bluebottle Blue is a big threat for William Haggas, while Create could bounce back returned to Southwell.

This can go to SOAMES FORSYTE who has been impressing with his recent finishing efforts.

LTO Selection:

17:30 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to look past SOLOMON, who was unlucky not to get his head in front on debut here earlier in the month when staying on late to nearly snatch the win. William Haggas' charge should be well suited by the extra furlong as he looks to see off Minstrel Knight, who ran with promise himself over C&D last time out. A well-related son of Masar, What A Night is a newcomer to note for the David Evans team.

SOLOMON was only narrowly denied in what looked quite a good course novice on his recent 7f debut and is impossible to oppose. Minstrel Knight is the obvious to one to chase him home, although it will be interesting to see what the betting makes of the David Evans newcomer What A Night with Hollie Doyle up.

This looks a golden opportunity for SOLOMON who only went down by a short-head on his debut here this month.

Out of the frame in all 12 starts since winning; little appeal despite the drop in grade.
LTO Selection:

18:00 Southwell Stakes (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

BRAVE DISPLAY may be winless in 10 starts since joining current connections, but he returned to somewhere near his best when narrowly denied at Wolverhampton. That bodes well on his return to a track where he won last February, and it may be that Trulie Good gives him the most to think about, having been runner-up over shorter here the last twice. C&D winners this winter, Equiami and Twistaline cannot be ruled out either.

If BRAVE DISPLAY is in the same form as when narrowly denied at Wolverhampton last time he should take a bit of stopping. Twistaline has won a similar race over C&D this month and is feared most ahead of Eva Rosie, who arrives in form but has stamina to prove over this far.

The choice is C&D winner BRAVE DISPLAY who was down to this level for the first time when beaten a neck at Wolverhampton 11 days ago.

LTO Selection:

18:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

This step up to a mile should suit the progressive SMOKY MOUNTAIN and he gets the nod to show his rivals the way home, having been nudged up 5lb for winning with more authority than the official margin suggested at Wolverhampton. King's Code lost nothing in defeat when third at Lingfield and he can make the frame again off an unchanged mark. Gincident showed a bit more last time and if he can settle better in the early part of the race, he has claims.

Several in-form sorts in opposition with the narrow vote in favour of ELIGIBLE. He enhanced his already excellent course record when successful over C&D 3 weeks ago and a 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent him going close again. Goldsmith and Smoky Mountain are others to consider, with Ernie's Valentine also in the mix dropped back in trip.

The vote goes to ELIGIBLE who is 4-8 at the track and who put up a career-best effort when winning over C&D this month.

LTO Selection:

19:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

BERRYGATE has performed admirably in defeat on her first three career starts, and she may be able to make her handicap debut a winning one. Floating Voter clearly benefited from the application of blinkers on his own handicap bow when tasting Wolverhampton success, and he is feared most in his bid to double up. Rhasidat was making her first start for this stable when scoring narrowly at Kempton a few weeks ago, but a 4lb rise will make life tougher for her.

FLOATING VOTER was much shorter in the betting and showed improved form to make a winning handicap debut (in blinkers) at Wolverhampton 10 days ago, doing well to come out on top having come off a very modest pace. He could yet have more to offer and gets the narrow vote to follow up. Fellow last-time-out winner Rhasidat and Berrygate head up the dangers, with Keen Interest also not one to give up on.

There was no shortage of confidence behind FLOATING VOTER at Wolverhampton and he duly prevailed with a bit in hand.

Good late work over 5f here in December; not as good latest; return to 6f can suit.

LTO Selection:

19:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

The combination of a drop in trip and class can help REVOLUCION get back to winning ways. Joseph Parr's charge didn't have a lot of luck when fifth over 7f at Wolverhampton and, dropped 1lb, he should be there or thereabouts at the line. Back Tomorrow rates as the main danger, racing off the same mark as when a creditable second at Kempton. Zargun is likely to be one of those forcing the pace in the early stages, but he will need to put some disappointing efforts behind him.

It could be worth chancing INANNA, who has failed to make much of an impact since going close at Yarmouth in September but she has slipped to an attractive mark and dips into 0-65 company for the first time here. Back Tomorrow hit the crossbar off this mark at Kempton recently and is feared most, while Revolucion should have a part to play, too.

Some of these are well treated again but BACK TOMORROW looks the most solid option on her handicap form this winter.

LTO Selection:

20:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Given he last tasted success in April 2022, ASADJUMEIRAH has undoubtedly been costly to follow and is not for the faint-hearted. However, it's also worth remembering he is a previous Tapeta winner (Newcastle) and is a very tempting proposition from 20lb below that last winning all-weather mark. After hinting at a revival when fourth in similar company recently, the Antony Brittain-trained gelding shades the vote over Sarah's Verse and South Dakota Sioux.

SARAH'S VERSE is well treated and looked back in form when a staying-on fifth at Wolverhampton last time, so she's worth a chance to take this provided the pace is sound. El Hibri and Asadjumeirah are the only other two to arrive in form, and both are respected.

Preference is for C&D winner EL HIBRI (nap) who bounced back from his Newcastle blip with a solid fourth at Wolverhampton on Friday.

Back off last his winning mark, but he needs to improve on his last two efforts.
LTO Selection:

20:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 11f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Distinction (winner) and HAZEL BEAR (runner-up) stayed on powerfully to dispute a tight finish at Wolverhampton and, while the former held on gamely that day, Jamie Osborne's filly was finishing the better of the two and can reverse the form on 2lb better terms. The margins will be tight, which also creates hope for Come On John, who wasn't beaten far in a slightly better race last time. Scarborough Castle, already a dual course winner, completes the shortlist.

This looks wide open and the percentage call is TABLES TURNED, who posted his best effort for a while when third off this reduced mark over 1¼m at Chelmsford and the slightly stiffer test here will help. It's best to overlook Trusty Scout's latest effort and, in good order prior to that, he looks dangerous. Scarborough Castle is next on the list, while Femme Patronne and Rose Light are others to consider.

It may be worth taking a chance with DEFENCE TREATY who has dropped 4lb lower than when winning easily over C&D in February last year.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
