The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(1) Sex On Fire 11/10, Fairly useful gelding. Course winner. Only ffth of 8 in nursery at York (6f, soft, 15/2) 66 days ago. Has good chance on pick of form. Course winner (5f) whose Haydock second in July sets the standard; new trip this afternoon.
2
2nd (2) (15/8 +17%) Immediate Effect
1.875
15/8(+17%)
(2) Immediate Effect 15/8, Overcame greenness to make a winning start in 11-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (7.2f) on debut 39 days ago, also trapped wide for most of way too. Runner-up has gone in since so he's a big player with plenty more to come. Overcame adversity to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton (7f); form franked; contender.
3
3rd (3) (7/1 -75%) Sahara Dancer
7
7/1(-75%)
(3) Sahara Dancer 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. 33/1, below form 7¼ lengths eleventh of 19 to Candy in listed Two-Year-Old Trophy at Redcar (6f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Not taken lightly. Highly tried in two runs for current yard; stamina for 7f has to be taken on trust.
4
4th (4) (66/1 -65%) Magna Gee Gee
66
66/1(-65%)
(4) Magna Gee Gee 66/1, Twice-raced maiden. 80/1, seventh of 11 in maiden at this C&D 11 days ago. Second run was better than his debut but more improvement a must if he's to contend here.
5
5th (5) (9/1 +25%) Silver Arrow
9
9/1(+25%)
(5) Silver Arrow 9/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Tenth of 11 in maiden at Catterick (7f, heavy, 12/1) 25 days ago. Easily his best effort came in his one attempt on AW; even that needs bettering though.
8
6th (8) (200/1 -203%) Squires Treaty
200
200/1(-203%)
(8) Squires Treaty 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, seventh of 10 in maiden at Chelmsford City (6f) 13 days ago. Two runs last month not devoid of promise but significant progress is needed to win.
10
7th (10) (17/2 -183%) I Can Imagine
8.5
17/2(-183%)
(10) I Can Imagine 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Good second of 15 in maiden (7/2) at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 23 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. First run for yard after leaving Joseph O'Brien and in the picture. Showed promise for J O'Brien, including AW, prior to recent 25,000gns sale; not ruled out.
11
8th (11) (250/1 -150%) Quirke On Parole
250
250/1(-150%)
(11) Quirke On Parole 250/1, Once-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in novice at this C&D (80/1) on debut 13 days ago, slowly away. 80-1 when a well-beaten 8th of 9 over C&D on her debut 13 days ago; longer-term prospect.
6
9th (6) (100/1 +0%) Eager Puccini
100
100/1(+0%)
(6) Eager Puccini 100/1, Once-raced maiden. 125/1, tenth of 12 in maiden at this course (8.1f) on debut 20 days ago. Well held when 125-1 for a 1m maiden here three weeks ago.
7
10th (7) (150/1 -50%) Jackchester
150
150/1(-50%)
(7) Jackchester 150/1, Once-raced maiden. 80/1, tenth of 12 in novice at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut 22 days ago, very slowly away. Well beaten at Newcastle on debut (7f) but showed clear promise; longer-term prospect.
9
11th (9) (50/1 +24%) Penn Avenue
50
50/1(+24%)
(9) Penn Avenue 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. 28/1, ninth of 12 in novice at Newmarket (7f, soft) 21 days ago. Modest form in two 7f runs last month; minor handicaps on her agenda soon.
16:30 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Although Sex On Fire has something to prove after two defeats at York, the combination of a gelding procedure and a longer trip should see him in a better light. He cannot be ruled out, but IMMEDIATE EFFECT makes slightly more appeal. The son of Study Of Man overcame greenness when making a winning debut at Wolverhampton and he may be able to find enough improvement to defy a penalty. I Can Imagine and Sahara Dancer are others to consider.
Sir Mark Prescott's IMMEDIATE EFFECT looked a good prospect when overcoming inexperience and a troubled passage to make a winning debut at Wolverhampton and is fancied to follow up at the chief expense of Sahara Dancer who has the form to have a big say. Jack Jones' new recruit I Can Imagine is also in the mix along with Sex On Fire.
Although he will need to improve to defy a penalty, IMMEDIATE EFFECT did so much wrong at Wolverhampton that progress looks very likely.
(3) Aquacell 6/5, 11/1, seventh of 11 in minor event at Ascot (8f, good to soft) 40 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Can give a good account. Ran well on unfavourable terms at Ascot and she's respected back in a 7f handicap.
4
2nd (4) (10/1 +0%) Enola Grey
10
10/1(+0%)
(4) Enola Grey 10/1, Course winner. Good fifth of 12 in handicap (22/1) at this course (8.1f) 23 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Four-time AW winner who wasn't beaten far here last time and has claims back in trip.
5
3rd (5) (14/1 -115%) Triumph Of Peace
14
14/1(-115%)
(5) Triumph Of Peace 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner at Salisbury in August. Ninth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at this course (6.1f) 20 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. In the mix back up to 7f. Still unexposed and now goes back up in trip but she needs more progress.
9
3rd (9) (28/1 +0%) Twirler
28
28/1(+0%)
(9) Twirler 28/1, Last of 8 in handicap at Catterick (7f, heavy, 12/1) 25 days ago. Others more persuasive. Dual Tapeta winner but she's been out of sorts this autumn and needs to get back on track.
6
5th (6) (66/1 -100%) Powdering
66
66/1(-100%)
(6) Powdering 66/1, 4 wins from 15 runs this year. 28/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, heavy) 11 days ago. Sort to bounce back. Four wins in the spring but has mixed record since and she comes with risks attached.
7
6th (7) (11/1 -57%) Get Jiggy With It
11
11/1(-57%)
(7) Get Jiggy With It 11/1, Winner at Redcar in August. 12/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, good) 53 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Needs to bounce back after a heavy defeat at Newmarket and she's untried on Tapeta.
2
7th (2) (10/3 +17%) Mrs Morrell
3.333333
10/3(+17%)
(2) Mrs Morrell 10/3, 1 win from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Yarmouth in May. 100/1, badly hampered when twenty seventh of 30 in handicap at Royal Ascot (8f, good to firm) 145 days ago. Not ruled out after her lay-off. Lightly raced 3yo who drops back in trip/grade and could resume her progress after a break.
8
8th (8) (8/1 -23%) Apeeling
8
8/1(-23%)
(8) Apeeling 8/1, 18/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 19 days ago, running on. Needs considering. Unexposed on AW and she went close when upped to 7f at Wolverhampton latest; key player.
1
9th (1) (14/1 -155%) Executive Decision
14
14/1(-155%)
(1) Executive Decision 14/1, 17/2, creditable fourth of 7 in handicap at Newbury (7f, heavy) 19 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Looks competitive on form. Generally reliable 4yo who went close off this mark in September; in the mix on AW debut.
17:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The step up to 7f enabled an improved bid from APEELING when a staying-on third at Wolverhampton. A 1lb nudge up the ratings looks more than workable for Andrew Balding's filly and a second career victory could be on the cards. Mrs Morrell didn't enjoy the best of passages in the Sandringham at Royal Ascot and she is one to note on her return in calmer waters. Executive Decision is also dropping in class and completes the shortlist.
A case can be made for a few of these but Gemma Tutty's course winner ENOLA GREY rates the pick of the weights so edges the vote from the returning Mrs Morrell who remains with potential for the powerful Gosden team. Executive Decision and Triumph of Peace also warrant plenty of respect in this competitive handicap.
The vote goes to APEELING, who is unexposed on AW and was a strong-finishing third when upped to 7f at Wolverhampton last time.
(5) Kildonan 11/1, Fair gelding. 12/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 11 in nursery at Pontefract (6f, heavy) 37 days ago. Sets standard on best form but he's struggled the last twice and needs a major turnaround.
4
2nd (4) (11/1 -100%) Trouble Man
11
11/1(-100%)
(4) Trouble Man 11/1, Foaled January 22. €36,000 foal, Profitable gelding. Closely related to winner up to 7f Napanook, and half-brother to useful 6f/7f winner Lir Speciale and 7f winner Mereside Madness. Considered. 36,000euros foal; yard had a 2yo winner last week and he needs watching in market.
2
3rd (2) (50/1 -25%) Impulse Buy
50
50/1(-25%)
(2) Impulse Buy 50/1, Foaled April 6. 24,000 gns foal, 7,500 gns 2-y-o, Ulysses gelding. Closely related to 1½m winner Bradman. Dam 6f winner. Has fair standard to aim at on debut and he could be a longer-term prospect.
10
4th (10) (9/4 +78%) Miss Funky Monk
2.25
9/4(+78%)
(10) Miss Funky Monk 9/4, Foaled March 18. €10,000 2-y-o, Shalaa filly. Half-sister to useful French 2-y-o 5f winner Wheels On Fire and French 1m/9f winner I'm A Believer. Dam lightly raced. Wears blinkers. Blinkers are applied on debut but she has a good pedigree and needs checking in market.
9
5th (9) (11/4 +8%) Grey Salvo
2.75
11/4(+8%)
(9) Grey Salvo 11/4, Promising second of 8 in maiden (9/1) at this C&D on debut 9 days ago, slowly away. In the mix with better to come. Eyecatching second behind an odds-on rival over C&D on recent debut; key player.
3
6th (3) (11/2 +21%) The Voominator
5.5
11/2(+21%)
(3) The Voominator 11/2, Once-raced colt. 18/1, sixth of 12 in maiden at Beverley (5f, good to firm) on debut, not knocked about. Off 114 days. Up in trip. Should progress. Ran green on Beverley debut (5f) in July and he needs to leave that form well behind.
7
7th (7) (13/2 -8%) President Wilson
6.5
13/2(-8%)
(7) President Wilson 13/2, Twice-raced colt. 10/3, third of 9 in novice at this course (7.1f) 13 days ago. Needs to build on it. Has ability and it's still early days but he needs a big step forward on this drop in trip.
11
8th (11) (50/1 -100%) Missile Mac
50
50/1(-100%)
(11) Missile Mac 50/1, Thrice-raced filly. Seventh of 9 in novice (150/1) at Chelmsford City (6f) 18 days ago. In good hands and still unexposed but she needs a transformation on this switch to Tapeta.
1
9th (1) (66/1 -65%) Get Up Everybody
66
66/1(-65%)
(1) Get Up Everybody 66/1, Once-raced colt. Ninth of 12 in novice (150/1) at Newcastle (7.1f) on debut 22 days ago, not knocked about. Can do better. Finished in rear when 150-1 on Newcastle debut; needs major improvement dropped in trip.
8
10th (8) (12/1 -118%) Ribbon Is A Dancer
12
12/1(-118%)
(8) Ribbon Is A Dancer 12/1, Foaled April 1. 15,000 gns yearling, Soldier's Call colt. Half-brother to winner up to 7f Tareekh and 1m winner Tilt At Windmills. Dam once-raced half-sister to smart 1¼m winner Snoqualmie Boy. Interesting newcomer. Yard 16% with 2yos this year and he needs close look on debut.
6
11th (6) (28/1 +15%) Nave Force
28
28/1(+15%)
(6) Nave Force 28/1, Foaled February 9. 30,000 gns foal, 17,000 gns yearling, Land Force gelding. Closely related to useful 6f winner Last Surprise and half-brother to useful winner up to 7f Coco Jamboo. Dam maiden. Plenty to like on paper and interesting to see how he figures in market.
17:30 Southwell Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Having stayed on encouragingly when runner-up at Southwell, a breakthrough victory shouldn't be long in coming for GREY SALVO. This represents a drop in class for Roger Fell's filly and she rates as the one to beat. Kildonan should prove more competitive reverting to maiden company, although he does have something to prove after finishing last at Pontefract. With that in mind, President Wilson may give the selection most to think about, despite this drop in distance looking against the son of Bobby's Kitten.
The market should prove highly informative but Hugo Palmer's Soldier's Call newcomer RIBBON IS A DANCER is bred to be well above average so gets the vote at the chief expense of form-pick Grey Salvo. Another debutant Trouble Man could have a say too in this open-looking maiden.
Preference is for GREY SALVO, who made a promising start when runner-up behind an odds-on rival over C&D last Monday.
(9) Prometeo 13/2, 3 wins from 6 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (10/3) at Kempton (11f) 85 days ago. Not taken lightly on his tapeta debut. First Tapeta run; on a hat-trick after 1m2f/1m3f wins on turf and Polytrack; up 4lb.
8
2nd (8) (14/1 -40%) Haku
14
14/1(-40%)
(8) Haku 14/1, Landed 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 7/4) 37 days ago, well ridden. Ought to be in the shake-up. Close up in three 1m4f runs here; career-high mark after recent Wolverhampton win.
2
3rd (2) (16/1 -45%) Fantasy Believer
16
16/1(-45%)
(2) Fantasy Believer 16/1, C&D winner. Twelfth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 22/1) 21 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Significantly back up in trip. Can give a good account. Broke course record over C&D in August; had ground/trip excuses since; needs strong pace.
5
4th (5) (4/1 +50%) Gloucestershire
4
4/1(+50%)
(5) Gloucestershire 4/1, First run since leaving Richard Hannon when respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 10/1) 21 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Merits consideration. Well treated with Fantasy Believer on turf form in 2023; just two runs since; Tapeta debut.
3
5th (3) (17/2 -70%) La Pulga
8.5
17/2(-70%)
(3) La Pulga 17/2, Latest win at Thirsk in September. 14/1, good second of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 22 days ago. In the mix once more. In good form at 1m4f on AW, nailed late at Newcastle latest; another tough display likely.
4
6th (4) (12/1 -50%) Beraz
12
12/1(-50%)
(4) Beraz 12/1, 10/1, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good to soft) 44 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip and one to consider. Useful efforts in two Newcastle handicaps (1m4f/1m2f) last winter; can be involved.
1
7th (1) (20/1 -150%) Westerton
20
20/1(-150%)
(1) Westerton 20/1, 11/8, very good fifth of 11 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Useful on the Flat so holds leading claims. Useful 1m2f handicap form; hasn't appreciated the switch to hurdles since; cheekpieces on.
6
8th (6) (11/10 +67%) Primo Lara
1.1
11/10(+67%)
(6) Primo Lara 11/10, 2 wins from 4 runs this year. Latest win at York in May. Off 5 months before coming in eleventh of 17 in handicap (8/1) at Doncaster (10.2f, heavy) 18 days ago, not enjoying a clear run over 2f out. Makes tapeta debut. Likely to improve. Unexposed in handicaps, 1-1 on AW; better for latest run after break; has more to come.
18:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 3) 11f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Prometeo accounted for his nearest rival by half a length at Kempton to supplement a Doncaster triumph and holds an obvious chance of completing the hat-trick. However, the step up in grade might catch him out so LA PULGA gets the nod. Charlie Johnston's five-year-old produced a good effort to hit the crossbar in a tougher event than this at Newcastle and is only 2lb higher. With a repeat of that effort, he will prove tough to beat. Beraz is another to consider.
Alan King's WESTERTON comes here on the back of a very good fifth over hurdles so is fancied to capitalise on a handy-looking mark. Primo Lara should be all the better for his recent Doncaster eleventh after an absence and could emerge as the main danger, with Prometeo, Beraz and Gloucestershire all worthy of consideration too.
Fantasy Believer has plenty going for him back over C&D but PRIMO LARA was on the upgrade earlier and may still be ahead of his mark
(1) Destinado 7/1, Prolific upon joining this yard, gaining sixth victory of 2024 at Musselburgh (12.5f) in April. However, recent efforts not so inspiring, beaten a long way out when last of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford (1m) 18 days ago. Visor replaces blinkers now returned to class 6 company. Combination of step back up in trip and return to Class 6 may help; on a handy mark.
8
2nd (8) (12/1 -60%) Fiftyshadesaresdev
12
12/1(-60%)
(8) Fiftyshadesaresdev 12/1, Maiden. 25/1, creditable second of 12 in handicap at this course (11.1f) 34 days ago, held close home. Not taken lightly having fallen plenty in the weights this year. Longstanding maiden but recent form is respectable; finished second here last time.
10
3rd (10) (4/1 +71%) High Court Judge
4
4/1(+71%)
(10) High Court Judge 4/1, Eighth of 11 in handicap (7/1) at this course (8.1f) 11 days ago, always behind. Significantly up in trip and he's not one to write off for yard firmly amongst the winners. Stamina to prove but could be dangerous if he stays; very well treated on peak form.
5
4th (5) (7/1 +22%) Smokey Malone
7
7/1(+22%)
(5) Smokey Malone 7/1, Course winner. 9/1, not seen to very best effect when sixth of 7 in handicap at Chelmsford (14f) 27 days ago. Looks competitive on form. May ideally need further than this distance but he is attractively handicapped.
3
5th (3) (3/1 +25%) Camacho Man
3
3/1(+25%)
(3) Camacho Man 3/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps at Leicester/Lingfield during early summer and solid return from 5 months off when second of 12 in a C&D handicap 11 days ago. Fancied to be thereabouts again. Generally in good form this term; close second over C&D last time; highly respected.
6
6th (6) (12/1 -71%) Bay Dream Believer
12
12/1(-71%)
(6) Bay Dream Believer 12/1, Temperamental sort. Latest win at Ripon in August. Good fifth of 11 in handicap (28/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 20 days ago, not ideally placed. Has a lower mark to work from on all weather and she's another worth considering. Unable to take advantage of lower AW mark last time; stamina to prove back at 1m4f.
12
7th (12) (12/1 +33%) Lady Phoebe
12
12/1(+33%)
(12) Lady Phoebe 12/1, Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap (7/2) at Redcar (10f, heavy) 16 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. This rates more suitable from career-low mark. 3yo maiden who has lacked consistency but went close off 3lb higher in August.
4
8th (4) (11/2 +15%) Rose Light
5.5
11/2(+15%)
(4) Rose Light 11/2, Course winner. Good second of 10 in handicap (28/1) at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 19 days ago, forced to switch final 1f and keeping on. Not out of things from 1 lb higher mark. Registered sole win here; runner-up in two of her four starts for new yard; in the mix.
11
9th (11) (20/1 -25%) Sweet Painted Lady
20
20/1(-25%)
(11) Sweet Painted Lady 20/1, Creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (28/1) at this course (14.1f) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and little more needed if she's to open her account. Inconsistent maiden; chance partly depends on how well she responds to cheekpieces.
9
10th (9) (16/1 -33%) Sneaky Blinder
16
16/1(-33%)
(9) Sneaky Blinder 16/1, Winner at Salisbury in July. First run since leaving Tom Ward when seventh of 8 in handicap at Yarmouth (11.5f, soft, 4/1) 22 days ago. Refitting of blinkers can help now. Could go well with the blinds reapplied; has form figures of 31524 in this headgear.
7
11th (7) (80/1 -100%) Orange Martini
80
80/1(-100%)
(7) Orange Martini 80/1, 150/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy) 14 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Best watched. Form for current stable leaves a lot to be desired; still a maiden.
18:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ROSE LIGHT closed all the way to the line when finishing second at Wolverhampton and that form reads well in the context of this race. Tony Forbes' five-year-old goes off only a 1lb higher mark and could record her second course victory. Camacho Man occupied the runner-up berth over track and trip earlier in the month and he might get into contention, while Fiftyshadesaresdev is another to keep an eye on.
CAMACHO MAN ran well on the back of a 5-month break when runner-up over C&D 11 days ago and, entitled to be sharper with that under his belt, he could be the answer having been nudged up just 1 lb. Bay Dream Believer is holding her form well and is feared along with Rose Light.
Judged on 2024 form CAMACHO MAN (nap) holds particularly solid claims. Rose Light is second choice.
(1) Happier 2/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2023. Below form fifth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Catterick (6f, heavy) 15 days ago. Not discounted on tapeta debut. Infrequent winner but she looks well worth a crack at both 5f and AW; interesting.
4
2nd (4) (7/2 +0%) Lewis Barnes
3.5
7/2(+0%)
(4) Lewis Barnes 7/2, Showed a good attitude to get off the mark at Kempton (6f) on penultimate start and not disgraced in stronger company when sixth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (6f) 18 days ago. No reason why he won't be competitive again back at the minimum trip. Kempton win last month (6f) before midfield finish at Chelmsford; drops back in trip.
6
3rd (6) (15/8 +17%) Fortunate Star
1.875
15/8(+17%)
(6) Fortunate Star 15/8, Displayed more encouraging signs from much-reduced mark and capitalised when dead-heating in 12-runner C&D handicap 6 days ago. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and he's one to consider. Dead-heated in a tight finish over C&D last week; 3lb higher with penalty; yard flying.
2
4th (2) (12/1 -85%) Mehmo
12
12/1(-85%)
(2) Mehmo 12/1, C&D winner. Step back in right direction when fifth of 9 in handicap (7/1) at Nottingham (5f, soft) 14 days ago. Held form well on all-weather earlier this year and he's respected operating just 1 lb above last winning mark. Conditions fine and he looked to be on the way back to form at Nottingham latest; chance.
9
5th (9) (40/1 -233%) Stroxx
40
40/1(-233%)
(9) Stroxx 40/1, One win from 51 Flat runs. Creditable third of 10 in handicap (17/2) at Chelmsford City (5f). Off 7 months. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. Creditable third when last seen in April; record of 1-51 hardly bet compelling though.
8
6th (8) (20/1 -100%) Brandy Station
20
20/1(-100%)
(8) Brandy Station 20/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win at Ffos Las in June. 28/1, shaped as if better for the run after 4 months off when fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 20 days ago. Fallen to a workable mark and his rider takes off a handy 7 lb here. Respected. Won a weak four-runner classified race in June; less good twice since; others appeal more.
11
7th (11) (25/1 -108%) Belvoir Kitten
25
25/1(-108%)
(11) Belvoir Kitten 25/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 50/1, fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 20 days ago, no extra late on. Not sure to be in same form here. Exposed 17-race maiden; conditions no problem but easy enough to swerve.
5
8th (5) (40/1 -21%) Al Najada
40
40/1(-21%)
(5) Al Najada 40/1, Hooded for 1st time, first run since leaving K. R. Burke/after 16 months off understandably looked rusty when eighth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (80/1) 27 days ago. This should reveal more. Can step up on last month's reappearance/stable debut but he needs to; others are safer.
7
9th (7) (20/1 +39%) Lochaber
20
20/1(+39%)
(7) Lochaber 20/1, One win from 21 Flat runs. Blinkered for 1st time, 2½ lengths seventh of 12 to Fortunate Star in handicap at this C&D (25/1) 6 days ago. Down in the weights but retains some ability; could go well at a price.
10
10th (10) (80/1 -60%) Captain Bentley
80
80/1(-60%)
(10) Captain Bentley 80/1, Eighth of 9 in minor event (66/1) at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 75 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time now but he's hard to fancy. Exposed maiden for whom a change of headgear isn't enough to tempt.
19:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Stroxx finished a close-up third at Chelmsford in April and should give a good account off a 1lb lower mark on his return to action. However, HAPPIER looks the way to go. Tim Easterby's four-year-old was well held in fifth at Catterick last time, but she has been dropped 2lb so it would be no surprise to see her capitalise on a career-low mark. Fortunate Star shared the spoils over C&D last week and is another to watch out for.
FORTUNATE STAR capitalised on his much-reduced mark when dead-heating in a C&D contest 6 days ago and he could well be up to following up under a penalty. Happier, Brandy Stationm with a recent run under his belt, and Lewis Barnes are others to consider.
Mehmo can go well at this level but HAPPIER belatedly tackles 5f for the first time and and she can defy top weight.
(6) Sir Joseph Swan 4/1, 12/1, very good second of 12 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago, well positioned. Has good chance on form. Threatening to regain the winning thread; close second over C&D last week; good chance.
5
2nd (5) (11/8 +59%) Arc Zoosve
1.375
11/8(+59%)
(5) Arc Zoosve 11/8, Lightly-raced maiden. Good close second of 9 on handicap debut at this course (14.1f, 16/1) 16 days ago, nearest finish. Should have more to offer. Neck second on handicap debut over 1m6f here last month, showing improvement; respected.
4
3rd (4) (12/1 -118%) Brividi
12
12/1(-118%)
(4) Brividi 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 7 in novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 80/1) 25 days ago, slowly away. Has plenty of stamina in her pedigree and she appeals as a likely improver now upped in trip and switched to handicaps. Ran encouragingly last time; siblings include a 2m winner; progress is possible.
1
4th (1) (11/4 +54%) Daaris
2.75
11/4(+54%)
(1) Daaris 11/4, One win from 22 Flat runs. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 5/1, respectable third of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 25 days ago. Player if building on that. Registered sole win on turf but has a consistent AW record; solid chance.
2
5th (2) (13/2 +0%) Kojin
6.5
13/2(+0%)
(2) Kojin 13/2, Creditable third of 12 in handicap (7/2) at this course (12.1f) 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Can give a good account. In-form contender who looks a likely player provided he stays this trip.
7
6th (7) (100/1 0%) Kitten's Dream
100
100/1(0%)
(7) Kitten's Dream 100/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. Thirty six runs since last win in 2023. 125/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. On a long losing sequence and recent form is poor.
19:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
ARC ZOOSVE put in a career best when a neck second over 1m6f at this venue on his handicap debut a couple of weeks ago and a further step up in trip can see him go one better. Sir Joseph Swan has also been knocking on the door of late and is an obvious threat, while Kojin edges out Daaris to be best of the rest.
ARC ZOOSVE showed improved form when only just failing to make a winning handicap debut here last month and shades the vote over fellow 3-y-o Brividi, who should do much better now upped markedly in trip for handicap bow. Sir Joseph Swan has been knocking on the door of late and completes the shortlist.
Sir Joseph Swan's turn looks near but unexposed ARC ZOOSVE is an interesting alternative. Alex The Great won yesterday.
(4) Supernova Steps 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Makes tapeta debut. Poor form thus far but sprinting could be her thing and her yard has found some form.
1
2nd (1) (4/1 -45%) My Boy Jack
4
4/1(-45%)
(1) My Boy Jack 4/1, 11/4, respectable third of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 15 days ago. Has good chance on form. All wins at Wolverhampton but effective elsewhere; solid each-way contender.
6
3rd (6) (3/1 +65%) Socialise
3
3/1(+65%)
(6) Socialise 3/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. 18/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 29 days ago, slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Nigel Tinkler. 6f Tapeta win in April off 7lb higher; mixed bag since; sold £1,800 in Oct; market useful.
2
4th (2) (16/1 +0%) May Remain
16
16/1(+0%)
(2) May Remain 16/1, C&D winner. Eighth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 23 days ago. Tongue strap back on. On dangerous mark but not shone after a summer break; revival may be predicted by betting.
9
5th (9) (25/1 -56%) Banana
25
25/1(-56%)
(9) Banana 25/1, Remains a maiden after 37 Flat runs. Last of 10 in handicap (28/1) at Newcastle (6f) 8 days ago. Exposed 37-race maiden; may pick up a weak race but perhaps at Wolverhampton.
8
6th (8) (14/1 -75%) Zachary
14
14/1(-75%)
(8) Zachary 14/1, Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f) 13 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Won twice at Chelmsford last year; 0-16 in 2024 and opposable despite his lowly mark.
5
7th (5) (2/1 +20%) Hi Hoh Tonto
2
2/1(+20%)
(5) Hi Hoh Tonto 2/1, Unreliable sort. 13/8, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago. Long-standing maiden but has made a solid start for current yard. Knocking at the door over 5f for his new trainer; should stay 6f; more appealing than many.
11
8th (11) (50/1 +24%) Robespierre
50
50/1(+24%)
(11) Robespierre 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 125/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 6 days ago. Visored for 1st time. Poor form in his five starts; a visor is tried tonight but others look much stronger.
7
9th (7) (12/1 -100%) My Kind Of Girl
12
12/1(-100%)
(7) My Kind Of Girl 12/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. 16/1, respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 20 days ago, nearest finish. Can make presence felt. Exposed maiden but she's been threatening and the return to 6f is a plus; respected.
10
10th (10) (40/1 +20%) Dash Power
40
40/1(+20%)
(10) Dash Power 40/1, Remains a maiden after 16 Flat runs. 100/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 4 days ago. Exposed 16-race maiden; yet to shine this autumn; remains opposable for win purposes.
20:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
MY BOY JACK has been running consistently well in defeat of late and his most recent third over this trip at Newcastle suggests that he could be hard to beat in this company. Hi Hoh Tonto has a similar profile to the selection and could give him plenty to think about. Others to consider are My Kind Of Girl and Zachary.
MY BOY JACK continues to hold his form well, placed for the fourth consecutive start at Newcastle 2 weeks ago, so gets the nod over Hi Hoh Tonto and My Kind of Girl.
My Boy Jack and Hi Hoh Tonto look solid candidates to run well but this could be the day for MY KIND OF GIRL to break her duck.
(4) Havana Sky 8/1, Winner at Thirsk in August. Visored for 1st time, tenth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 7/2) 16 days ago. Not kicked on from his turf win in August; goes without headgear this time.
5
2nd (5) (17/2 -42%) You Are Everything
8.5
17/2(-42%)
(5) You Are Everything 17/2, Modest maiden. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (6f, good, 5/1) 57 days ago. Can give a good account. 0-12 but has offered promise, including on AW; a prominent showing could be on the cards.
8
3rd (8) (9/2 +31%) Global Effort
4.5
9/2(+31%)
(8) Global Effort 9/2, 9/2, improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 2 days ago. Not discounted on the back of that. All out to win at Wolverhampton (6f) on Monday; penalty could anchor his follow-up bid.
2
4th (2) (6/1 +0%) Arc Tesoro
6
6/1(+0%)
(2) Arc Tesoro 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 15/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, fifth of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 16 days ago. Better run when 5th on his h'cap debut last month (6f, Tapeta); should have more to offer.
7
4th (7) (7/4 +50%) Irish Dancer
1.75
7/4(+50%)
(7) Irish Dancer 7/4, Modest maiden. 4/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D 23 days ago. Respected. 0-15 but placed over C&D the last twice; yard in form; one for the shortlist.
3
6th (3) (11/2 -38%) Piperstown
5.5
11/2(-38%)
(3) Piperstown 11/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 15/8, respectable third of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 69 days ago. Back up in trip. Enters calculations. Third in both handicap runs; still has some potential which is a big plus point here.
6
7th (6) (16/1 +0%) Savalas
16
16/1(+0%)
(6) Savalas 16/1, Latest win at Bath in September. Bit below form fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (28/1) 23 days ago. A turf win in September has been followed by two lesser efforts on AW.
9
8th (9) (33/1 -32%) Secret Daay
33
33/1(-32%)
(9) Secret Daay 33/1, Remains a maiden after 27 Flat runs. Tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 10 in handicap (12/1) at Newcastle (6f) 15 days ago. Others more persuasive. Exposed maiden who has been well short of his best the last twice; hard to recommend.
10
9th (10) (100/1 0%) L'sarafina
100
100/1(0%)
(10) L'sarafina 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 150/1) 65 days ago. Beaten just two rivals in five starts; no appeal.
1
10th (1) (66/1 -65%) Falcon
66
66/1(-65%)
(1) Falcon 66/1, 80/1, last of 13 in handicap at this course (8.1f) 79 days ago. Back down in trip. Tailed off in 3 handicap runs for new yard this summer; had a wind op since latest; risky.
20:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
PIPERSTOWN has filled third place on both starts since being switched to handicaps and a 1lb drop in the ratings could help the unexposed three-year-old get off the mark here. Irish Dancer has made the frame over C&D the last twice and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Savalas and You Are Everything complete the shortlist.
PIPERSTOWN has made a positive start to life in handicaps and gets the vote with the return to 6f in his favour. You Are Everything and Irish Dancer head the dangers.
Unexposed 3yos Piperstown and ARC TESORO appeal most with the latter perhaps open to the greater improvement.

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.
