The Pug

7.5
7.5/1(+38%)
(7) The Pug 7.5/1, Unreliable sort. Good second of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 23 days ago, having benefit of enterprising ride. Cheekpieces back on but no sure thing to back that up.
Has patchy record but he went close on Tapeta latest and has claims if he can back that up.

Churchella

12
12/1(-20%)
(11) Churchella 12/1, Fifth of 7 in handicap (5/1) at Hamilton (12.1f, good to soft) 23 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and application of a first-time visor needs to have positive effect now.
Inconsistent seven-race maiden and others are more convincing; visor added.

3rd (3) Bletchley Storm (5/1 -25%)
Bletchley Storm

5
5/1(-25%)
(3) Bletchley Storm 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good second of 9 behind prolific scorer Sparks Fly in handicap at Windsor (8.1f, soft, 3/1) back in May. Interesting connections opt for a marked step up in trip and she's one to consider.
Runner-up in both her handicaps and she looks interesting on this step up to 1m3f.

4th (1) Midsummer Dance (6/1 +14%)
Midsummer Dance

6
6/1(+14%)
(1) Midsummer Dance 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 7/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Yarmouth (10.1f, good to firm) 27 days ago, leading under 2f out and no extra last ½f. More needed now stamina is tested further.
0-5 but she's shown promise in both her handicaps and is in the mix at this new trip.
4
5th (4) Fougere (11/1 -83%)
Fougere

11
11/1(-83%)
(4) Fougere 11/1, Remains a maiden after 7 starts but she impressed with how she travelled when close-up third of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f) 5 weeks ago. Possible we've not yet seen the best of her now stepping up in trip.
Went close at Nottingham last time and has claims if she can transfer her form back to AW.
9
6th (9) Churchill Rose (4.5/1 +0%)
Churchill Rose

4.5
4.5/1(+0%)
(9) Churchill Rose 4.5/1, 4/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, good to firm) 27 days ago, suited by way race developed. In command final 100 yds. Good pace to aim at will suit and claims in follow up bid.
Smooth winner at Yarmouth (11.4f) last time and a 4lb rise looks fair; shortlisted.
12
7th (12) Raincloud (100/1 +0%)
Raincloud

100
100/1(+0%)
(12) Raincloud 100/1, First run since leaving Alice Haynes when eighth of 10 in handicap (100/1) at this C&D 17 days ago. Others more persuasive.
0-9 and was a remote eighth of ten over C&D (100-1) on her recent stable debut.
6
8th (6) Angel Of Peace (5.5/1 +39%)
Angel Of Peace

5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(6) Angel Of Peace 5.5/1, Good second of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (10f, good, 3/1) 22 days ago, headed over 1f out and keeping on. Consistency is hard to knock and she should give another good account upped in trip.
0-9 but she's been placed in last three starts and looks worth a try at this new trip.
2
9th (2) Rampant (3.33/1 +26%)
Rampant

3.33
3.33/1(+26%)
(2) Rampant 3.33/1, 12/1, creditable second of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) 22 days ago, quickening inside final 1f and just failing. Possibilities with a repeat.
Finished well to go very close at Newcastle (1m2f) and he's respected back up in trip.
13
10th (13) Northern Rose (33/1 +50%)
Northern Rose

33
33/1(+50%)
(13) Northern Rose 33/1, Nearer last than first in trio of novice/maiden events during second half of last year. Offered a little more on sole start over hurdles at Killarney in July and returns to the level for another new yard now. Market should guide on handicap bow.
Has struggled in her four runs including over hurdles latest; now makes her handicap debut.
8
11th (8) Dalatara (50/1 -52%)
Dalatara

50
50/1(-52%)
(8) Dalatara 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Chepstow (10f, good to firm) 48 days ago. Tongue tie fitted now but present mark demands more.
Still unexposed but needs a tongue-tie needs to make a big difference at this new trip.
10
12th (10) Lady Of Nepal (100/1 -203%)
Lady Of Nepal

100
100/1(-203%)
(10) Lady Of Nepal 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1, last of 5 in maiden at Ffos Las (12f, heavy) 37 days ago, left behind over 2f out. Does at least now get a crack at handicaps but others arrive with stronger claims.
Struggled in maiden/novice events and needs a transformation on her handicap debut.
14
13th (14) Lady Saxon (100/1 -100%)
Lady Saxon

100
100/1(-100%)
(14) Lady Saxon 100/1, Offered little all 3 starts in novice/maiden company spread over 8 months and much more needed to figure even allowing for her lowly opening mark. Cheekpieces fitted.
Has struggled in all three runs and needs plenty of improvement on her handicap debut.
5
14th (5) Anna Aurelia (50/1 -52%)
Anna Aurelia

50
50/1(-52%)
(5) Anna Aurelia 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, sixth of 7 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good) 23 days ago, weakening over 1f out. More needed making tapeta debut.
No progress so far and was well held on her handicap debut at Windsor (11.4f) last month.
LTO Selection:

13:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 11f Race Class Flow

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

BLETCHLEY STORM arrives here on the back of runner-up efforts at Nottingham and Windsor earlier in the year and compensation could be imminent for Michael Bell's filly now upped to 1m3f. Fougere is another who looks likely to pick up a race of this nature judged on recent performances and the daughter of Bated Breath is likely to be the mix once again. Last-time-out winner Churchill Rose is only 4lb higher on the switch to Tapeta and completes the shortlist.

BLETCHLEY STORM showed improved form switched to handicaps during the spring, bumping into a prolific scorer when last seen at Windsor in May. Boasting a pedigree that suggests this sort of trip should suit, she gets the narrow vote to come out on top, with Yarmouth scorer Churchill Rose and Angel of Peace heading up the dangers. Fougere is another not out of things.

An open race in which recent Yarmouth winner CHURCHILL ROSE gets the vote ahead of Bletchley Storm and Rampant.

1st (11) Bushfire (7/1 +22%)
Bushfire

7
7/1(+22%)
(11) Bushfire 7/1, Latest win at Haydock (10.2f) in July. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (8f, good to soft, 9/2) 38 days ago, not quicken final 1f. Fancied to give another good account returned to AW.
In good form on turf in his last two starts and has run well over C&D; chance.

Touchwood

11
11/1(+31%)
(14) Touchwood 11/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable third of 12 in handicap (8/1) at Ripon (8f, good) 8 days ago, no extra last ½f. Return to 7f rates a likely plus and he's worth a second look from this mark.
Dry in almost two years but he's well handicapped now and was placed at Ripon last week.

He's A Gentleman

8.5
8.5/1(-42%)
(4) He's A Gentleman 8.5/1, Just the one win from 23 starts but he comes here in good order, second of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7.2f, good) 25 days ago. No surprise to see him thereabouts again.
Just one win from 23 starts but he went close at Ayr last time; dangerous back up in trip.
5
4th (5) Southwold (3.5/1 +30%)
Southwold

3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(5) Southwold 3.5/1, Dual AW winner, the latest a C&D handicap in February. Continued the good work when twice placed on turf thereafter but not for the first time he didn't look the easiest of rides (blinkered) when ninth of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (1m) 3 weeks ago.
Still lightly raced but was disappointing at Newmarket last time and needs to bounce back.
13
5th (13) Light Up Our Stars (14/1 +30%)
Light Up Our Stars

14
14/1(+30%)
(13) Light Up Our Stars 14/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 7 in handicap (14/1) at Epsom (10.1f, good) 9 days ago, possibly in need of the run following 3 months off. Back down in trip.

28
28/1(-250%)
(2) Clipsham Gold 28/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Kempton in May. Good second of 7 in handicap (7/1) at Leicester (8.2f, good) 69 days ago. Changed hands for 20,000 gns subsequently and lines up here with her new yard amongst the winners.
2-3 on AW this season and was close second at Leicester latest; respected on stable debut.

Soames Forsyte

4
4/1(+67%)
(7) Soames Forsyte 4/1, Maiden who finished good third of 10 in handicap at Beverley (8.4f, soft, 33/1) 10 days ago, headed final 1f and keeping on. Task now is to back that up.
0-12 but he went close at Beverley last time and has claims if he can repeat that form.
8
8th (8) Mykonos St John (50/1 +0%)
Mykonos St John

50
50/1(+0%)
(8) Mykonos St John 50/1, Course winner who ended last term well below form and similar story in 2 starts on AW earlier this year, last of 8 in a C&D handicap in February. Has gone well fresh previously though, so interesting if the market speaks in his favour from much-reduced mark.
On reduced mark but losing run is up to 17 and has questions to answer on his return.
12
9th (12) Dancinginthewoods (12/1 +33%)
Dancinginthewoods

12
12/1(+33%)
(12) Dancinginthewoods 12/1, Respectable seventh of 16 in handicap at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 22/1) 18 days ago, carrying head awkwardly from 2f out. Others more persuasive.
On dangerous mark but he's been quiet in his last four runs and has something to prove.

Motawaafeq

8.5
8.5/1(-42%)
(9) Motawaafeq 8.5/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Won 11-runner handicap at Pontefract (8f, good, 18/1) 28 days ago, digging deep under pressure. Rider's claim offsets his latest rise in the weights and no forlorn hope in hat-trick bid.
Front-runner who has won his last two starts and is respected in his hat-trick bid.
10
10th (10) Hotspur Harry (9/1 +44%)
Hotspur Harry

9
9/1(+44%)
(10) Hotspur Harry 9/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. 10/3, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Back down in trip and he's worth a second look returned to AW.
Well held in last five runs and his overall record now stands at 2-36; others preferred.
1
11th (1) Calin's Lad (25/1 -79%)
Calin's Lad

25
25/1(-79%)
(1) Calin's Lad 25/1, 3 wins from 7 runs this year. 2/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in May, responding well for pressure. Absent since but consistency hard to knock for this yard and not dismissed lightly.
8yo who has won three of his last four and is as good as ever; respected back from a break.
3
12th (3) Rise Hall (25/1 -25%)
Rise Hall

25
25/1(-25%)
(3) Rise Hall 25/1, Lightly raced in recent seasons and not shown enough in handful of starts so far this summer to make him of interest here.
Has struggled since returning form a long absence in May and has a lot to prove.
LTO Selection:

14:05 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Motawaafeq has really found his form of late, having completed a double at Pontefract last month, and Mick Appleby's charge must enter calculations off only 2lb higher in the ratings. However, CALIN'S LAD appeared to triumph with something in hand at Wolverhampton when last seen in May and is fancied to shrug off a 5lb rise on his return from a 114-day layoff. In-form rivals Ciotog and He's A Gentleman are just two others to note in a competitive contest.

A host arrive with decent claims and it could just be worth siding with BUSHFIRE. A winner at Haydock 2 starts back, he again ran well from his revised mark when third at Pontefract in July and it would come as no surprise to see him go well back on the all weather. Bath scorer Ciotog, He's A Gentleman and Hotspur Harry head up the dangers.

Plenty have possibilities but the vote goes to 8yo CALIN'S LAD, who has won three of his last four starts and is as good as ever.

Fast Society

11
11/1(+8%)
(5) Fast Society 11/1, Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 12 in minor event at Nottingham (6.1f, good to soft, 17/2) on debut 27 days ago, running green and making no impression. Possibly one for later on.
Made a low-key start at Nottingham and he needs plenty of improvement upped in trip.

2nd (2) American Glory (1.75/1 +71%)
American Glory

1.75
1.75/1(+71%)
(2) American Glory 1.75/1, Zarak colt who took a marked step forward from debut when second in a 12-runner Newcastle maiden (7f) in July. Possibly overdid things on the front end when fourth of 9 in Ripon novice (1m) since and no surprise to see a better showing.
Went close at Newcastle (7f, AW) in July and he had an excuse over 1m last time; dangerous.
10
3rd (10) Rogue State (8/1 -45%)
Rogue State

8
8/1(-45%)
(10) Rogue State 8/1, Foaled February 20. €11,000 2-y-o, Lope De Vega filly. Dam, British/US 1¼m-11f (US Grade 3) winner, half-sister to useful 13.3f/1¾m winner Night Sparkle. Holds a Group 2 entry later this month and confidence behind her in the betting would need to be viewed positively.
Has speed and stamina in her pedigree and market should guide on debut.

4th (1) Caelan (4/1 +11%)
Caelan

4
4/1(+11%)
(1) Caelan 4/1, Tamayuz gelding who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in 10-runner Kempton maiden (7f) 23 days ago, quickening well inside final 1f and leading post. Open to improvement but this rates tougher.
Finished well for a last-gasp win at Kempton and he's respected under a penalty.
4
5th (4) Eagle Angel (5/1 -25%)
Eagle Angel

5
5/1(-25%)
(4) Eagle Angel 5/1, Foaled March 18. Gleneagles colt. Closely related to 3 winners, including 11f-1¾m winner Australian Angel and 1m winner New Angel. One to note on debut for leading stable.
Has plenty of stamina in his pedigree but he still needs a close look on debut.
8

Fighting Wren

50
50/1(-178%)
(8) Fighting Wren 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 9 in minor event at Ripon (6f, good to soft, 10/3) 29 days ago, weakening from 2f out. Remains the type to do better but handicaps may well be more her bag moving forward.
Well held in both her starts and she needs a transformation upped to 7f.
9
7th (9) Queen Of Atlantis (4/1 -45%)
Queen Of Atlantis

4
4/1(-45%)
(9) Queen Of Atlantis 4/1, Promising type. Second of 12 in minor event at Newbury (6f, good to firm, 11/1) on debut 71 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement and she's shortlisted here.
Sets the standard on her debut second at Newbury and she's a big player upped in trip.

50,000gns 2yo; yard 15% with 2yos this year and market should guide on debut.

Mist Rollin In

125/1(-89%)
(6) Mist Rollin In 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. 25/1, seventh of 8 in maiden at Catterick (5f, good) 7 days ago, hampered start and always behind. Low-grade handicaps likely to be more his bag.
Big prices and he struggled in his two runs (6f/5f) last month; can only be watched.
LTO Selection:

14:40 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Newcomer Eagle Angel is related to some highly-rated types and any market support for the son of Gleneagles must be taken seriously. Nevertheless, there was plenty to like about CAELAN's debut victory at Kempton last month and Marco Botti's gelding may be capable of defying a penalty. Queen Of Atlantis looks likely to build on her runner-up effort at Newbury in June and cannot be taken lightly in receipt of 8lb from the selection.

QUEEN OF ATLANTIS displayed plenty of promise amidst inexperience when second in a Newbury novice (6f) on debut back in June and, with progress very much anticipated, she could well be up to going one place better on all-weather debut. American Glory returned to AW and Kempton scorer Caelan head up the dangers, whilst market support behind newcomer Rogue State would need to be viewed positively.

The vote goes to QUEEN OF ATLANTIS, who sets the standard on her debut second at Newbury in June and is open to progress upped in trip.

LTO Selection:

15:15 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

INVINCIBLE AURA has shaped well on both starts to date and stepped forward when runner-up at Windsor most recently, despite hanging left in the closing stages. The extra furlong appears to be in his favour and Marco Botti's colt is expected to take advantage of the experience gained to date. The main threats may well come from the newcomers in the shape of Yaajooz, Big Lou and Blessed Boy.

INVINCIBLE AURA stepped up on his debut when second at Windsor and his experience should count for plenty. Big Lou and Blessed Boy make the most appeal of the newcomers before market clues.

Preference is for INVINCIBLE AURA, who was runner-up at Windsor last time and is open to more improvement at this new trip.

2.25/1(+36%)
(9) Sheehan 2.25/1, Heavy defeat on debut but away from the mud and fitted with a tongue strap on for first time, she showed a lot more when second of 5 in novice event at Pontefract (8f, good) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Should progress again.
Second of five at Pontefract (1m) last month; open to improvement and 7f should be fine.
LTO Selection:

15:50 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

SHEEHAN displayed a lot more than her debut effort when finishing second at Pontefract and it would be no surprise to see James Fanshawe's filly go one better on this occasion. Create has to give weight to all of her rivals following her debut victory here over a mile in February, but she is likely to enter calculations along with Perovskia, who outran her odds when third at Chepstow on her second career start.

CREATE's 6-month absence having made a taking winning debut at this venue is a slight cause for concern but that race worked out quite well and if she is at that sort of level, she's capable of conceding weight all round. Sheehan left her opening run trailing in her wake when runner-up at Pontefract and she's a threat, with newcomer Hamlet worth a look in the betting.

This looks weaker than the 1m maiden won by CREATE in February and Scott Dixon's filly can give weight away and make a winning return.

Worth chancing.

Thomas Equinas

6
6/1(-71%)
(8) Thomas Equinas 6/1, Three Chelmsford wins this year, including 7f/1m handicaps on his last 2 outings. Raised another 5 lb and has to prove he's as effective on tapeta but he can't be ruled out in his current mood.
Chasing a hat-trick after two Chelmsford wins last month; has C&D form; solid contender.
LTO Selection:

16:25 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

THOMAS EQUINAS arrives in search of a hat-trick of victories, having returned to form following a switch to the all-weather at Chelmsford last month, and the four-year-old, who is clearly more at home on an artificial surface, is taken to handle a 5lb rise for his most recent success. Asmund has been knocking on the door recently and is capable of another decent showing, while others for the shortlist include Homer Stokes and Hezahunk.

VARIETY ISLAND was better than the result at Catterick last time and might be worth chancing having twice gone close off a similar mark at Newcastle in June. Homer Stokes, who goes unpenalised for last week's C&D success, Asmund and Hezahunk head the dangers in a wide-open affair.

Ultra competitive. Min Till looks nicely treated but KODEBREAKER may be the answer now back on the AW.

Tailed off in all three runs and needs plenty of improvement upped to 2m on handicap debut.
LTO Selection:

17:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 16f Race Class Flow

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

OUR SCHOLAR has been in fine form over hurdles in recent months, as he has recorded a treble and looks interesting back on the Flat. The son of Exceed And Excel is able to compete off a rating of 63 here, which he could make light work of. Doublethetrouble outran his huge odds to finish a close fourth over 1m4f at this track nine days ago and he won't mind the step up in trip off the same mark, while Zivaniya is unexposed over this distance and could also get into contention.

DOUBLETHETROUBLE is on a much-reduced mark and shaped as if back in form when fourth at this course 9 days ago so, back up in trip, he's worth chancing. Zivaniya should benefit from a return to tapeta and ranks as the main threat ahead of Our Scholar, who has landed a hat-trick over hurdles recently.

This can go to OUR SCHOLAR (nap), who has won three in a row over hurdles and is a major player off a workable mark back on the Flat.

Six-race maiden with a mixed record and he struggled at Doncaster last time.
LTO Selection:

17:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

JILL ROSE (third) had Woobay (fifth) behind when denied by under a length at Thirsk last time and she boasts leading claims off the same mark here. Ray Vonn is a live threat despite putting in an underwhelming display at Newcastle. That was over 7f and the step back to this distance looks like a good move and he merits consideration.

SUN POWER has been given a chance by the handicapper and signalled a return to form when fourth at Redcar last time. He gets the nod in the finale. Crypto Quest and Jill Rose head the list of dangers.

This looks tricky but the vote goes to four-time AW winner SUN POWER who was an eyecatching fourth off a reduced mark at Redcar latest.

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.
