Stallone

16
16/1(-129%)
(2) Stallone 16/1, 11/2, won 8-runner handicap at Newcastle (5f) 36 days ago. Snapped a long losing run on that occasion, however, and he's not an obvious sort for the follow-up.
Drop to 5f saw him end a long losing run at Newcastle last month; major player up 6lb.

2nd (1) Jenever (1/1 +60%)
Jenever

1
1/1(+60%)
(1) Jenever 1/1, Course winner. Career best when winning 10-runner handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 9/4) 7 days ago. Solid claims.
Progressive at a low level & conditions no problem; 7lb higher than for last week's win.

3rd (6) The Tron (7/1 +13%)
The Tron

7
7/1(+13%)
(6) The Tron 7/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in February. Creditable second of 7 in handicap (11/4) at this C&D 36 days ago. Should give another good account.
Conditions to suit and he ran well for 2nd here last month; in the thick of it once more.

Howyadoin

18
18/1(-29%)
(11) Howyadoin 18/1, 22/1, bit below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces back on. Others preferred.
Too keen both runs this year; return of headgear can help and he's effective over C&D.
4
5th (4) Ecclesiastical (4/1 +47%)
Ecclesiastical

4
4/1(+47%)
(4) Ecclesiastical 4/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. 14/1, below form thirteenth of 23 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 58 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. First run for yard after leaving T. G. McCourt. Worth monitoring in the betting on debut for shrewd yard.
Of interest on even this year's Irish form and needs a close market check on stable debut.
5
6th (5) Tantastic (8/1 -33%)
Tantastic

8
8/1(-33%)
(5) Tantastic 8/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 8 days ago. Likely to be thereabouts again.
Poor strike-rate but conditions fine and he's in good order; each-way claims.

7th (10) Enchanted Night (50/1 -52%)
Enchanted Night

50
50/1(-52%)
(10) Enchanted Night 50/1, Unreliable type. Remains a maiden after 28 Flat runs. 14/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good) 9 days ago, merely closing up late.

50/1(-25%)
(7) Quanah 50/1, 25/1, 13 lengths last of 8 to Stallone in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 36 days ago. Visored for 1st time.
Should be well handicapped but it's been a while since he ran to form; new headgear tried.

(13) Loveliest 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 18/1, good second of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good) 8 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Expected to be bang there.
Better efforts the last twice and looks on a handy mark; solid claims on switch to AW.

King Of Europe

18
18/1(-13%)
(12) King Of Europe 18/1, 16/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, 5¾ lengths eighth of 10 to Jenever in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm) 7 days ago, not clear run. Has work to do.
Unplaced in seven starts from 5f to 7f; needs to leave last week's reappearance behind her.

Captain Corcoran

25
25/1(-39%)
(8) Captain Corcoran 25/1, C&D winner. 22/1, below form eighth of 13 in handicap at Catterick (5f, good) 29 days ago. Needs to bounce back.
C&D winner off 2lb lower last autumn; not built on promising return yet but can't rule out.
LTO Selection:

14:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Jenever and Stallone are recent winners who merit respect but they could both be vulnerable off significantly higher marks here. With that in mind, preference is for the unexposed LOVELIEST, who put in a career-best effort when second on her handicap debut at Thirsk recently and she can race off the same mark here. The Tron also hit the crossbar on his most recent outing and, given that came over C&D, he might prove to be the main danger.

LOVELIEST took a step forward when runner-up at Thirsk 8 days ago and, with more to come, she gets the nod ahead of recent winner Jenever. The Tron has plenty of experience over this C&D and is another one to consider.

Loveliest still has potential but STALLONE did well dropped to 5f at Newcastle last month and he can follow up.

Went close over 1m4f here on latest; weak finisher in his one previous go at 1m6f, in 2021.
LTO Selection:

14:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

COLD HENRY was only narrowly denied on his seasonal return at Catterick a month ago and the four-year-old could be hard to stop off the same mark if finding any improvement for the run. Mount Olympus was an impressive winner at Kempton recently and is an obvious threat, despite a 7lb rise in the ratings. Others to note are Bay Of Naples and Bond Spirit.

BOND SPIRIT arrives on the back of a course success and there's no reason why the return to this longer trip should pose any problems, so he's preferred to Mount Olympus, who made a winning start for his new yard at Kempton recently. Cold Henry is also respected.

Although MOUNT OLYMPUS has not been a model of consistency, he looked on good terms with himself when making a winning stable debut.

Both runs at 5f on turf; did not look the finished article on latest; new trip and surface.
LTO Selection:

15:00 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

JOHNNY JAMES accounted for a useful rival when winning on his belated racecourse debut at Catterick 11 days ago and the son of Equiano merits plenty of respect on the back of that performance. Victory Flagship has not been beaten far on either of his two previous starts and is likely to be in the mix once again. Kitten Gloves disappointed last time but is a player based on her debut effort at Wolverhampton.

JOHNNY JAMES has to concede weight all round but he holds the clear edge on his debut-winning form at Catterick so gets the nod in a novice where lots arrive with question marks against them. Sidney's Son also has the form to play a part and rates second best ahead of Kitten Gloves, who should be in the mix if first-time cheekpieces have the desired effect.

This can go to JOHNNY JAMES after his promising debut win on turf. Next best is Victory Flagship.

Second at Leicester last month (7f, soft); less good last time; opening mark looks tough.
LTO Selection:

15:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

TRIP TO ROME had plenty in hand when winning over 7f at Kempton last month and, having finished a close second on unfavourable terms over C&D on his penultimate start, there is good reason to expect the gelding to cope with a workable mark on his handicap debut. Band Of Steel faced an uphill task in the Zetland Stakes last time and is respected now dropped in class. Little Edi can also go well if he copes with stepping up in trip.

METAHORSE has been shown some respite by the handicapper so is worth siding with to get back to winning ways in a race where a number arrive on something of a retrieval mission. That can't be said of Trip To Rome though and Ed Dunlop's recent Kempton scorer rates a big danger. Course third Little Edi appeals as the pick of the rest.

He needs to bounce back from a poor run last time but ACOTANGO's earlier Haydock second strongly suggests he's still well treated.

(12) Hezahunk 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 8 in minor event (11/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f), possibly amiss. Off 13 months. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Something to prove.

Dropping down the weights and latest run offered hope; 0-7 on AW but handles Tapeta.

LTO Selection:

16:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

BIG BEAR HUG has held her form since she returned to action and, having shown tenacity to win at Leicester last month, she is an appealing option to register back-to-back wins off just 2lb higher. The switch in surfaces is a slight concern given she is unproven on Tapeta, which creates hope for any faithful supporters of Written Broadcast, who can be expected to be thereabouts despite yet to be successful over this trip. Love Your Work completes the shortlist.

LOVE YOUR WORK shaped well over a trip short of his optimum at Newcastle when last seen and he now has his ideal conditions after a break, so he gets the nod ahead of the likeable Written Broadcast. Bushfire is likely to come on for his reappearance, so he's of interest from a handy mark.

Love Your Work is a contender back from a break but BUSHFIRE can leave last month's turf reappearance behind him.

Out of form in recent weeks and needs to turn things around.
LTO Selection:

16:35 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Mr Fustic won with a determined effort at Kempton last month and rates a player off just 3lb higher, while Vitralite is taken seriously given he has won two of his four starts since returning to the UK after a stint in Hong Kong and still looks attractively weighted in comparison to his past ratings. However, the consistent KODEBREAKER seems to come alive on this surface and could be hard to beat off just 3lb higher than his last winning mark.

Though a 7-y-o, VITRALITE is unexposed on the all-weather and was successful at Chelmsford in April before following up in good style at Yarmouth later that month. He could be the answer with Ben Curtis doing the steering. The consistent Kodebreaker has continued to knock on the door since landing a C&D handicap off 3 lb lower in March and is feared most ahead of Mr Fustic. Among those likely to go off at bigger prices, Elshaameq is worth a second look.

After shaping well on his seasonal debut at Newbury, LE REVEUR can go well off his current mark if that run has brought him on.

LTO Selection:

17:05 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

FLEURIR wasn't quite seen to best effect when hampered inside the final furlong at Windsor last month, but she is very interesting off a mark of 79 on her handicap debut. Roger Varian's filly may have too much for the in-form Slainte Mhath, who is stepping up in trip, and C&D winner Ceanna. Tartan Skirt is another to note on her first start for the David O'Meara stable.

SLAINTE MHATH has a career-high mark to overcome but is thriving at present and fancied to follow up her Hamilton success and make it three victories in her last four starts. Lady Nagin can get back on track returned to Southwell and is next on the list ahead of handicap debutant Fleurir.

The choice is handicap newcomer FLEURIR whose second behind a useful rival at Newcastle last month suggests she may be on a good mark.

Gosdens have moved him on and he's probably best watched.
LTO Selection:

17:35 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

A shade disappointing over further at Chelmsford last time out, BIT HARSH sets the standard on the winning streak he had previous to that, and dropping in distance should be right up his street. Runner-up on three of his last four starts, Ebony Maw deserves a change in luck, while Arcadian Friend must be noted for a stable that continues in excellent form.

A case can be made for lots of these but ARCADIAN FRIEND shaped well after an absence when fourth at Lingfield and hails from a yard well among the winners so gets the vote. Bit Harsh is weighted to have a say on his return from a break and could emerge as the chief danger while tapeta debutante Typical Woman and C&D winner Natchez Trace need factoring in too.

The selection is BIT HARSH (nap) who landed a hat-trick before showing improved form in finishing third on his latest start.

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.
