There were 35 Races on Thursday 31st July 2025 across 5 meetings. There was 8 races at Goodwood, 8 races at Galway, 6 races at Nottingham, 7 races at Wolverhampton, 6 races at Epsom Downs, no doubt Tomform helped you find a winner.
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
Class & Speed Card

Best Secret made the frame in the Golden Gates at Royal Ascot last month and he is likely to be on the premises, despite being 5lb higher. High Degree makes his first appearance in a handicap off an appealing rating of 93 and has to be considered, but BEST ADVENTURE gets the vote. Andrew Balding's three-year-old lost two places near the finish when fourth at Sandown earlier in the month and the assessor may have been kind to drop him 1lb. Provided Shane Foley can navigate his draw from stall 16, he may bounce back on this occasion.

Preference is for handicap newcomer SERENITY BLUE, who has won novice races on his last two starts and has a classy pedigree.
Class & Speed Card

COPPULL took a step forward from his debut victory to finish third behind Gstaad in the Coventry at Royal Ascot last time and sets a fair standard with an official rating of 104. Clive Cox's colt may only need to reproduce that level of form in order to make it two wins out of three starts. Maximized beat Havana Hurricane by over a length in the Woodcote at Epsom last month and can confirm that form to go close in first-time cheekpieces. Puerto Rico is the pick of the remainder.

Clive Cox won this 2019 and 2020 and there is lots to like about the claims of COPPULL, who was third in the Coventry at Royal Ascot.
Class & Speed Card

Despite having to concede weight all round, the Gordon Elliott-trained PIED PIPER can maintain his unbeaten record over fences. A dual Grade 2 winner over hurdles, the seven-year-old has made a very promising start to his chasing career. While this undoubtedly represents his stiffest test to date, the son of New Approach should be well up to the task. Westport Cove looks the pick of the Willie Mullins-trained quartet, with stable jockey Paul Townend in the saddle. Successful over hurdles here last year, Gale Mahler also enters calculations.

Very competitive with preference for GALE MAHLER, a winner at the meeting last year who has made a bright start to her chasing career
Class & Speed Card

LITTLE JAYBEE may have produced a shock to score at Wolverhampton last time out, but she did so in taking fashion and can prove that was no fluke by scoring under a 4lb penalty on her turf debut. Not beaten far when third at Yarmouth last time out, Nebrook Star looks to be her main danger along with newcomer Vishaka, who may well want further in time.

This looks tricky but it might be worth siding with newcomer BALEYS ONTHEROCKS, who has plenty of speed in her striking pedigree.
Class & Speed Card

Plenty of use was made out of Galveston when finishing third in the King Edward VII at Royal Ascot last time and this looks an easier assignment, so he is of interest. However, MERCHANT accounted for Rahiebb by over two lengths at York prior to his victory in the King George V at Royal Ascot. William Haggas' colt is improving at a rapid rate of knots and can take this step up in his stride. Sir Dinadan was far from disgraced in fifth in the Irish Derby last time and is another to keep an eye on.

Armed with an 8lb pull, RAHIEBB is very tempting in the rematch with Merchant who commands huge respect all the same.
Class & Speed Card

Already amongst the winners this week, David Loughnane can strike with the hat-trick seeking BRAVO ZULU. A six-time scorer on the all-weather, the National Defense gelding has landed his two most recent starts on turf and the four-year-old remains potentially well handicapped. A beaten favourite in stronger company last time, Retracement shouldn't be discounted, while Imposing Supreme and Artful Approach are others to consider in a competitive heat.

One who could prove a bit of value is QUAR SHAMAR on the back of an encouraging first run for the yard and off a much-reduced mark
Class & Speed Card

RYE never looked comfortable when upped in trip last time out and she should be much more at home back to 6f, where she was runner-up on her two starts prior. Tony Carroll's charge can get off the mark at the main expense of Moby Quick, who has a 6lb penalty to overcome for a determined success at Leicester last week. A capable sort on his day, Early Release is expected to have a say as well.

Although last week's winner Moby Dick should go well again, slight preference is for RYE who has a sound chance on her best form.
Class & Speed Card

A fascinating clash between generations with Oaks runner-up WHIRL and last year's second here See The Fire both holding excellent credentials. The latter was a wildly impressive winner of the Middleton at York in May before producing a fine effort when third to Ombudsman in the Prince Of Wales's at Royal Ascot. That said, she comes up against an extremely tough rival, whose form in winning the Pretty Polly at the Curragh was franked by Kalpana's strong display in the King George on Saturday. Prix de Diane runner-up Bedtime Story heads the remainder.

With the form of her Group 1 Pretty Polly win reading extremely well, WHIRL is the selection ahead of See The Fire.
Class & Speed Card

A consistent performer in similar company all season, FIERY LUCY can gain that all important black-type winning bracket. Narrowly denied at Killarney earlier this month, the Gavin Cromwell-trained filly has finished runner-up in Group 3 races on three separate occasions. British raider Glamis Road has to be respected. Twice successful last term, the Ollie Sangster-trained filly is lightly raced at three. Naas third Bellaphina has to be a contender stepping back up in distance.

A wide draw is a concern for supporters of FIERY LUCY. However, her status as a three-time Group 3 runner-up is hard to ignore
Class & Speed Card

A tad disappointing when beaten as a short-priced favourite at Kempton last August, DANCINGINTHERAIN is bred to improve with time and this looks like a perfect opportunity to break the maiden for Saeed bin Suroor's charge. A promising second on debut at Windsor recently, Alther Walden is entitled to have a big say, along with Arboreous, who brings plenty of experience to the table.

Although unraced this year, DANCINGINTHERAIN showed enough on his two runs at Kempton last year to suggest he can win a race like this.
Class & Speed Card

MARTY HOPKIRK went close to making a successful transition into handicap company when beaten a neck into second at Doncaster at the start of the month. The son of Kodi Bear showed plenty of early speed on that occasion which will be suited to the demands of this track. Nad Alshiba Green (second) and Getreadytorumble (third) both performed with credit at Sandown last time and are expected to be in the mix, while the return to a sharper 5f might help Ruby's Profit.

Being a C&D winner who likely has further progress in him, GETREADYTORUMBLE (nap) is preferred. Ruby's Profit is second pick.
Class & Speed Card

Despite having to carry top-weight, GAVOO can reverse recent Curragh form with Which Wolf Wins. Third on that occasion, the David Marnane-trained colt had to wait for a gap and then showed signs of greenness before running on strongly close home. Stepping up an additional furlong should suit the son of Elzaam, who gives the impression that he can improve. The aforementioned Which Wolf Wins is slightly worse off at the weights, but has a plum draw and the services of Dylan Browne McMonagle. Down Royal third Invincible Will is one to note too.

Having outrun his odds at the Curragh in his first nursery, WHICH WOLF WINS may now uphold that form with beaten favourite Gavoo
Class & Speed Card

NAVAL ACADEMY produced a better effort when finishing just over three lengths clear of the third in second at Carlisle in May and is just 3lb higher. The five-year-old remains on a workable mark and can return to winning ways. Ravishing Beauty struck in comfortable fashion at Pontefract earlier in the month and holds an obvious chance off a 7lb higher rating. Previous C&D winner Mini Mac isn't out of it either.

Although both his wins have been on soft ground, DREAM PIRATE has run well on this better ground on his last two starts.
Class & Speed Card

HEY TRU BLUE made light work of the opposition when gaining a breakthrough victory in a maiden at Doncaster 21 days ago. An opening mark of 86 looks workable and, stepping up in trip, there could be more to come. Sir Albert continued his upward trajectory when completing a double on his handicap bow at Chester earlier this month and may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Amazing Journey, who boasts a similar profile.

American Gulf remains of interest but course winner GOLDWORK seems well regarded and can bounce back from his Newbury failure.
Class & Speed Card

Fergal O'Brien saddles DYSART ENOS and she might be worth a shot at a nice price. The Malinas mare looked like a star in the making early in her career but was slightly disappointing last term. She didn't run badly though when fourth in the Scottish Champion Hurdle and this nice ground should suit. A spin on the Flat recently should have left her spot on. Puturhandstogether was running a nice race in the Grimes Hurdle at Tipperary earlier this month until a mistake at the last. Joseph O'Brien also saddles another live contender in Mr Percy.

With 4yos having won this in consecutive years Puturhandstogether is interesting. Preference is for last year's runner-up NDAAWI
Class & Speed Card

REGALLY BLONDE made every yard of the running to score over track and trip earlier in the month and a 2lb rise might prove to be on the lenient side. Rupert The Prince finished a fair fourth on his handicap debut at Epsom earlier in the month and now sports a first-time visor. This step up in distance might eke out more improvement and he commands respect. Godstone is another to consider.

The form of REGALLY BLONDE (nap)'s win last time has been franked by the narrow runner-up and she can shrug off a 2lb nudge.
Class & Speed Card

Although unable to justify favouritism on her debut earlier this month at York, AYLIN should have learned plenty from that second-placed effort. The third and fourth have run respectably since and any improvement could see Karl Burke's filly opening her account. Uncertainty also filled the runner-up spot on her opening bid at Newbury and cannot be dismissed stepping up in trip. The daughter of Mohaather is feared most, although market support for 360,000gns newcomer Proposal would be interesting.

The shortlist for this competitive maiden comprises York runner-up AYLIN and interesting debutante Proposal.
Class & Speed Card

CAMELETTA VEGA was good on her hurdling debut at Cork in May and the runner-up has given that form a few boosts since. The daughter of Camelot out of Quevega was a cosy winner over Emily Love and that rival looks smart too. Jack Kennedy sides with Cinammon Roll and he has to be respected after a couple of convincing wins over timber. Stablemate Kamikaz Du Plessis sets the standard with a rating of 125 and has to be considered too.

Course bumper winner CAMELETTA VEGA beat a good yardstick on her first hurdles run and can follow up
Class & Speed Card

SEA OF CHARM rarely runs a bad race and finished a respectable third at Leicester on her latest outing and should have no issues with this drop in distance. The assessor dropped her 1lb for that display and that can help her return to winning ways. Saliko recorded her maiden victory over C&D on her most recent start and is one to take seriously for the Jack Jones team. Change Of Fortune completes the shortlist.

Sea Of Charm and Dogged command respect but 3yo filly SALIKO has a bit more upside and earns the vote.
Class & Speed Card

Organ hasn't looked back since entering handicaps and returning from a gelding procedure in April and demands respect in his bid to complete a four-timer. However, the son of Ulysses must produce another career-best performance to defy a 5lb higher mark for his latest triumph over C&D and preference is for handicap debutant ANTIPODES. Roger Varian's inmate got the better of two subsequent winners at Windsor last time out and a double may beckon. Hat-trick seeking duo Abundance and Knights Gold add further spice to the mix.

This is wide open but ORGAN is on a roll after three wins in a row and he gets the vote ahead of Wicked and Sea Force.
Class & Speed Card

A step up in trip here could unlock further improvement from GLENROYAL. The Australia gelding ran a big race on his handicap debut when second at Ballinrobe and was a touch unlucky in running last time at Tipperary when third to a progressive sort. Victoria Kesia got up late to score at Limerick back in April and it's interesting that she takes a significant step up in distance now. Astelia is another to note.

One who looks to have been laid out for this is GLENROYAL (nap), bred to relish this longer trip and with cheekpieces now fitted
Class & Speed Card

RAFFLES ANGEL regained the winning thread at Haydock a fortnight ago and might not be done improving yet. Charlie Johnston's Catterick scorer Chuti Manika has a light weight and must be respected given he too could still have more to offer. Intervention is no stranger to success at this venue and joins course runner-up Stanley Spencer on the shortlist for the opener.

Not many unexposed ones on show and the two oldest runners, Intervention and ABERAMA GOLD (nap), can fight out the finish.
Class & Speed Card

Turned out again quickly after a taking success at Newcastle last Saturday, ETRETAT should have plenty more to come and can follow up in this apprentice handicap. His Finest Hour may have disappointed over further at Newbury last time out, but he is best judged on his previous win at the same track, while Risen Again arrives on the back of a respectable third at Beverley.

Risen Again is likely to try and make all which should provide a nice lead for HIS FINEST HOUR to assert when it matters.
Class & Speed Card

WARTIME LEADER is a fascinating runner on his first start for Willie Mullins. The Churchill gelding hasn't been seen since finishing second on his debut for Pat Doyle in a Naas bumper back in January 2024. He was green when chasing home a classy sort in Shuttle Diplomacy that day. Emmet Mullins saddles two with Garahon looking the pick. He ran well when second in a Bellewstown bumper earlier in the month and that was a big step up on his debut run at Punchestown in April 2024. Parnell Street cannot be overlooked either.

Despite the long absence, Naas second WARTIME LEADER could be the one to be on now debuting for Willie Mullins
Class & Speed Card

LOVING APPRENTICE could hardly have been more impressive at Lingfield nine days ago when scoring by five lengths. Now back on track and given she's open to more improvement, a 6lb penalty might not be enough to anchor her. At the other end of the weights, Miraculous won well at Chester latest and represents a top stable, while Sudden Flight makes some each-way appeal.

This looks a good chance for Team Ireland to pick up some points with DARK ACE preferred to Sudden Flight.
Class & Speed Card

The Owen Burrows stable can do little wrong at present and this appeals as an ideal opportunity for HENGROIN to get off the mark, following a respectable seventh in what looked like a strong maiden at Newmarket recently. Runner-up at Windsor on his penultimate outing, the son of Lucky Vega is preferred to Norfolk Blue, who showed up well when second at Lingfield earlier in the month. Parole Officer is another to note.

It was a strong maiden at Newmarket in which HENGROIN finished in the pack and he holds Norfolk Blue on their Windsor clash.
Class & Speed Card

LONDONOFFICECALLIN makes a lot of appeal. The Irish raider has won his last three starts in this sphere and was also seen scoring over hurdles at Punchestown last month. La Pulga bolted up at Newcastle last Saturday and should go well if coping with the quick turnaround and 5lb penalty, while Gallant Lion may reward some each-way support in a competitive handicap.

The vote goes to LA PULGA, who is 2lb well in under a penalty for his easy success at Newcastle last Saturday.
Class & Speed Card

KING'S CASTLE continues to go from strength to strength and is 4lb well-in following his most recent success at Sandown in an apprentice race. The step up to 1m4f can bring about further improvement and it may be that Woodstock City gives him the most to think about, having dropped to a mark 3lb lower than his last win. Runner-up when last seen on the level last October, Chips And Rice is capable of going well.

With no penalty to carry for winning last week at Sandown, KING'S CASTLE must have every chance of completing his hat-trick.
Class & Speed Card

Al Shabab Storm was too bad to be true when coming home in last in a Listed event at Doncaster in March and he must enter calculations reverting to handicap company with Jack Nicholls claiming a handy 7lb. Regardless, WILLEM TWEE arrives on the back of a decent third at Newcastle and, off an unchanged mark, a sixth career victory could be in the offing. Queen's Guard is also of interest.

A trappy event in which QUEEN'S GUARD is taken to build on her promising stable debut at York. Fivethousandtoone is feared most.
Class & Speed Card

Just the four runners declared for this handicap but it's still competitive stuff, with REVELANCE put forward as the selection given she seems to be improving with each run and there was a lot to like about the way she knuckled down for the win at Salisbury. Pink Azalea is on a hat-trick and has improved no end since going handicapping, so she's respected along with Hamilton scorer Brielle.

Both BRIELLE and Revelance made all to win their novices so tactics will be crucial, but David O'Meara's 3yo edges preference.
Class & Speed Card

Having improved for a step up in distance when landing the spoils at Redcar recently, DOUBLE PARKED should have more to come beyond 1m. A 2lb rise in the ratings for Tim Easterby's charge could prove lenient and he gets the vote ahead of Palio Di Siena. The son of Sioux Nation has filled the runner-up spot on all three outings so far and an opening mark of 76 looks fair. Love Is The Law is the pick of the remainder.

Double Parked is unpenalised for his recent Redcar win but OUTLANDISH could build on his latest fourth now back up in distance.
Class & Speed Card

Miakoda is arguably the safe play in here given we know he's on good terms with himself following his last two Chepstow outings, and James Owen's gelding isn't short of experience. However, the eye is still drawn to UNCLE SIMON's unexposed profile and he improved again on his handicap debut at Redcar when only beaten a neck into second. Keep an eye on Graduated too.

Miakoda will be popular but UNCLE SIMON (nap) and Rajinoora are feasible alternatives after their decent handicap debuts.
Class & Speed Card

Runner-up on each of his last three starts, BELIEVE THE STORM deserves a change in luck and can get that at a track where he scored on debut last December. A mark of 88 still looks manageable and he is preferred to Doncaster winner Sterling Knight, as well as Hickory, who was an unlucky third last week at Ascot when slowly away and not getting a clear run at a crucial stage.

After another big run at Ascot on Saturday HICKORY, who can do it on AW too, gets the vote.
Class & Speed Card

Assuming TWIRLER copes with the quick turnaround, she could be difficult to stop in the finale as she impressed when dropped back to this trip at Windsor last Saturday. She's got a 5lb penalty to contend with but connections appear to have found her another very winnable heat. Recent Chester runner-up Simply Blue heads the list of dangers from Muscika.

David O'Meara's admirable veteran MUSCIKA ran well enough in a higher grade here recently to believe he might see off these.
Class & Speed Card

Now that the penny has dropped for FOX AVATAR after a comfortable success at Chelmsford last time out, Roger Varian's charge is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and can follow up off 6lb higher. Runner-up on his last two starts, Londoner is likely to be thereabouts again, as well as Immediate Effect, who was narrowly denied over shorter at Redcar recently.

There are a couple of unexposed and progressive types lurking in this with FOX AVATAR just preferred to the 3yo Immediate Effect.

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.
