11:45 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
9	9 (9) (11/4 +31%) Fai Fai	2.75 11/4(+31%)	(9) Fai Fai 11/4, C&D winner. 40/1, posted best effort in a while on second run after wind surgery when runner-up in a handicap over C&D 10 days ago (racing from out of the handicap in a Class 4 event). Back down in grade today and looks to have an excellent chance in this company. Ran well from a long way out of weights in Class 4 event over C&D last week.
2	2 (2) (4/1 +11%) Watermelon Sugar	4 4/1(+11%)	(2) Watermelon Sugar 4/1, C&D winner. Step in the right direction after 9 weeks off when third of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 25 days ago. Should be in the mix again. Returned to form last time; won off 1lb higher over C&D last April.
8	8 (8) (9/2 +40%) Sisters In The Sky	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(8) Sisters In The Sky 9/2, Had a busy campaign and returned to form to land 10-runner handicap over C&D 19 days ago, outpaced home turn and rallied to lead late on. Up 2 lb. Got up close home over C&D last time; likely to remain competitive.
5	5 (5) (9/2 -50%) Brunel Charm	4.5 9/2(-50%)	(5) Brunel Charm 9/2, Course winner. Twenty-one runs since last win in 2022 but handicap mark has fallen as a result. Shaped well on second run after wind operation when third of 12 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 37 days ago, keen early and did not enjoy a smooth passage. Leading contender. Two encouraging efforts since having wind surgery; fighting chance.
6	6 (6) (6/1 +25%) Lahina Bay	6 6/1(+25%)	(6) Lahina Bay 6/1, Has dropped back down to her last winning mark and back on track latest when third of 8 in a handicap here (7f, AW) last week. Drops in trip today and has each-way claims. Has made the frame a few times since returned to AW.
4	4 (4) (14/1 -17%) Alafdhal	14 14/1(-17%)	(4) Alafdhal 14/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2024. Tenth of 11 in handicap (12/1) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 4 days ago. Cheekpieces back on today but others preferred. Placed several times in autumn; form dipped the last twice.
7	7 (7) (16/1 +0%) Savannah Smiles	16 16/1(+0%)	(7) Savannah Smiles 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chepstow in September and continues to edge down the weights. Not given hard time when eighth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 50/1) 14 days ago. Could be one to note if the market speaks in her favour. Not helped by meeting traffic issues the last twice.
3	3 (3) (16/1 +27%) Alfa Moonstone	16 16/1(+27%)	(3) Alfa Moonstone 16/1, First run since leaving Craig Lidster when ninth of 10 in handicap at this course (5f, AW) 50 days ago. Hood removed today but needs more. Something to prove back up in trip; second run for new stable.
1	1 (1) (33/1 +0%) Dream By Day	33 33/1(+0%)	(1) Dream By Day 33/1, Below par since joining this yard, wore a tongue tie for the first time when eleventh of 12 in handicap over C&D 58 days ago. That was off an 8-month break so entitled to strip fitter for that but best to look elsewhere for win purposes. 0-7 for current yard and never figured in C&D event last time.

11:45 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Sisters In The Sky won over C&D on his latest outing and is expected to be competitive once again, despite a 2lb rise from the handicapper. Watermelon Sugar took a step back in the right direction when a neck third at Wolverhampton last month, but the vote goes to BRUNEL CHARM following his recent placed effort at Kempton having suffered interference.

FAI FAI was second in a better race than this over C&D 10 days ago, and he can take advantage of a drop in grade to go one better today. Brunel Charm is respected on the back of his latest effort having met trouble in running, while Watermelon Sugar looks set to run another solid race.

Provided his latest effort is backed up, FAI FAI has a great chance back down two grades. Sisters In The Sky is second pick.

12:15 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 6f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
7	7 (7) (3/1 -9%) Alshimali	3 3/1(-9%)	(7) Alshimali 3/1, Arrives on the back of two creditable second placed efforts, latest in a handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 27 days ago, keen, led over 1f out until headed in closing stages. A repeat performance would see him go close here. Has shown improvement since joining in-form Tony Carroll; turn looks near.
8	8 (8) (7/2 +0%) Poetic Jack	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(8) Poetic Jack 7/2, C&D winner on penultimate run, making all. Similar tactics were less successful when ninth at Chelmsford (6f) 22 days ago, not helped by being drawn out wide on that occasion. Respected on return to the scene of his latest victory. Recent form includes a C&D win (beat Alshimali); shortlisted.
4	4 (4) (9/2 +50%) Okami	4.5 9/2(+50%)	(4) Okami 9/2, Course winner when with Roger Varian. Has regressed, but better effort when fourth of 12 in handicap at this C&D (150/1) 58 days ago. Remains to be seen whether he can back that up. Ran encouragingly dropped to this grade over C&D last time.
6	6 (6) (5/1 +29%) Big Bard	5 5/1(+29%)	(6) Big Bard 5/1, C&D winner was well-backed when sixth of 12 in a handicap at Kempton (6f) 37 days ago. Interesting to see if the market support comes again, now just 2 lb above his latest winning mark. In good form here last summer; interesting back at Lingfield.
3	3 (3) (13/2 +54%) Big Time Rascal	6.5 13/2(+54%)	(3) Big Time Rascal 13/2, Step in the right direction when third of 4 in novice over C&D 19 days ago, outclassed by front two. Has looked a bit awkward under pressure and can be slowly away, so clearly not a straightforward character. Maiden who needs to raise his game back in a handicap.
5	5 (5) (14/1 -40%) Maith An Farhh	14 14/1(-40%)	(5) Maith An Farhh 14/1, Maiden who was disappointing on final run for James Ferguson when tried in cheekpieces. Headgear removed and drops markedly in trip for stable debut following a short break. Others have a more convincing profile. Drops back sharply in trip on stable debut; market helpful.
2	2 (2) (16/1 -14%) Shalaa Asker	16 16/1(-14%)	(2) Shalaa Asker 16/1, Hasn't been with current yard for long, never involved when seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 23 days ago. Went off at a big price that day (80/1) and interesting to see if market speaks more favourably today, with handicap mark continuing to ease. This drop in grade may prompt a resurgence.
9	9 (9) (16/1 +52%) Revolucion	16 16/1(+52%)	(9) Revolucion 16/1, One win from 40 runs. Disappointing when last of 11 at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 3 days ago and faces a stiff task from out of the handicap here. Inconsistent for current yard; not solid.
1	1 (1) (20/1 +20%) Arlecchino's Gift	20 20/1(+20%)	(1) Arlecchino's Gift 20/1, C&D winner. Gone off the boil of late, last of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 27 days ago. Has plenty to find on that evidence but is back down in class. Scored four times in 2024; form dipped the last twice.

12:15 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

POETIC JACK proved to be disappointing when attempting to follow up a C&D success at Chelmsford. However, the five-year-old, who had been in consistent form prior to that display, is more than capable of leaving the effort behind and is expected to confirm placings with Alshimali from their meeting here at the start of last month. Arlecchino's Gift won off this mark at Wolverhampton in September and it would be no surprise if he bounced back to form.

A good opportunity for ALSHIMALI who has been knocking on the door of late and a repeat effort should be good enough to take this. C&D winner Poetic Jack can leave his last run behind, with Big Bard not discounted having been too keen when well-backed at Kempton.

In-form maiden ALSHIMALI is taken to open his account and reverse C&D placings with Poetic Jack.

12:45 Lingfield Maiden (Class 4) 10f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
7	7 (7) (9/4 +55%) Pride Of Donegal	2.25 9/4(+55%)	(7) Pride Of Donegal 9/4, 100,000 gns yearling, Saxon Warrior colt. Unable to build on promise of debut when beaten (evens) at Southwell (8f) 50 days ago, hung left and kept on into third. Step up in trip looks the way to go and that could bring out more improvement in this lightly-raced individual from yard who are flying. A leading player on form and it looks very much as if this longer trip will suit him well.
2	2 (2) (5/2 -43%) Plage De Havre	2.5 5/2(-43%)	(2) Plage De Havre 5/2, Gelding has progressed with every run. Likely bumped into one when second of 14 in a novice event at Chelmsford City (10f) 36 days ago, made most, kicked off home turn but no match for winner late on. No surprise to see similar tactics here and should make a bold bid for in-form trainer. Front-running second in AW novice events at 9.4f and 1m2f; sets a clear standard on form.
8	8 (8) (4/1 -113%) Tribal Act	4 4/1(-113%)	(8) Tribal Act 4/1, Sea The Stars gelding. Half-brother to smart 1¼m/11f winner Marching Army and useful 1m winner Glittering Lights. Caught the eye on debut, getting the hang of things as the race wore on finishing fifth (met trouble) in a Kempton maiden (11f). Bound to benefit from that experience and leading chance. Two rivals have better form but this one could be a big improver after his Kempton 5th.
9	9 (9) (7/1 +61%) Romance In Rome	7 7/1(+61%)	(9) Romance In Rome 7/1, Churchill filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Yaajooz. Dam unraced out of useful 2-y-o 6f winner Cherokee. Tough ask taking on colts with experience on racecourse debut. Churchill half-sister to 1m winner Yaajooz (RPR 79); needs a close look on debut.
6	6 (6) (8/1 +33%) Sawgrass	8 8/1(+33%)	(6) Sawgrass 8/1, Gleneagles Filly. Sister to smart winner up to 1½m Stay Alert and interesting to see if any market support comes her way on racecourse bow. Wears a tongue-tie. Tongue tied for this debut; with her pedigree she is very much one to note.
5	5 (5) (20/1 +39%) Ruby Kendyl	20 20/1(+39%)	(5) Ruby Kendyl 20/1, Half-sister to several winners, including 1m/8.3f winner Al Nafoorah (by Bated Breath) and Hallalulu, winner up to 9.5f. Plenty of stamina on the dam's side but likely to need the experience. 5,000gns yearling; eighth foal; Ulysses half-sister to four winners, two fairly useful.
3	3 (3) (20/1 +75%) Skimming Along	20 20/1(+75%)	(3) Skimming Along 20/1, Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1m Sound Advice (2-y-o 7f winner, by Echo of Light) and 1m-1¼m winner Home Before Dusk (by Medicean). Gelded and wears a hood for his belated racecourse debut. Best to look elsewhere. 4,000gns yearling; ninth foal; Postponed half-brother to five winners, two useful; hooded.
4	4 (4) (25/1 +69%) Star Of Jupiter	25 25/1(+69%)	(4) Star Of Jupiter 25/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 5 in novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 50/1) in November, left behind over 2f out. Needs more. Well beaten on AW when 150-1 at Southwell (1m) and 50-1 at Wolverhampton (9.4f).
1	1 (1) (33/1 +74%) Formal Address	33 33/1(+74%)	(1) Formal Address 33/1, Camelot gelding who has been well held in novice contests. Low-grade handicaps will be more his bag moving forward. Soundly beaten at big odds; probably best watched until he is given a handicap mark.

12:45 Lingfield Maiden (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

PLAGE DE HAVRE was no match for a useful prospect of Godolphin's when runner-up at Chelmsford on his latest start, but this may be the ideal opportunity for Andrew Balding's gelding to get off the mark. Pride Of Donegal is likely to benefit from stepping up in distance based on his pedigree, while better is expected from Tribal Act, assuming he has learned plenty from his debut experience at Kempton.

PLAGE DE HAVRE did little wrong in defeat when second at Chelmsford last month, seemingly bumping into a useful one. He can make his experience count over the promising Tribal Act who was still learning on the job on debut. Pride of Donegal can claim bronze on his first try at this trip.

Among those who have run, PLAGE DE HAVRE, Pride Of Donegal and Tribal Act are highly plausible as potential winners.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (11/4 +45%) Nordic Glory	2.75 11/4(+45%)	(1) Nordic Glory 11/4, Five-time course winner. Latest win at Windsor in August. Respectable second of 5 in handicap over 5f here in September. Returned in similar form when second of 10 in handicap at this course (6f, AW, 3/1) 19 days ago, having been well-backed. One for the shortlist. Five wins around here and only just beaten on return from a break last month; major player.
3	3 (3) (7/2 -17%) Unavailable	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(3) Unavailable 7/2, C&D winner was supported in the betting and bounced back to form in first-time tongue strap when winning a 12-runner handicap at this course (6f, AW) 19 days ago, racing enthusiastically from the front. Likely to go well again but may face competition for the lead. C&D winner and back to winning ways here last month; still well treated despite 3lb rise.
6	6 (6) (7/2 +13%) Second Collection	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(6) Second Collection 7/2, Improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 7/1) 25 days ago, benefitting from the application of first-time blinkers (retained). Given a patient ride that day and similar tactics could work well here with plenty of pace on paper. 1lb higher than when winning at Wolverhampton last time; form worked out well; shortlisted.
7	7 (7) (13/2 +46%) My Turn Now	6.5 13/2(+46%)	(7) My Turn Now 13/2, Couldn't back up recent win at Chelmsford when fifth of 9 to Second Collection in a handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 25 days ago, raced keenly. Likely to be pushing the pace here again today. No excuses when behind Second Collection at Wolverhampton last month; others appeal more.
2	2 (2) (13/2 -8%) My Genghis	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(2) My Genghis 13/2, Hasn't been seen to best effect on last three runs, latest when not ideally placed and hampered finishing fifth of 9 in a handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 11/4) 32 days ago. Entitled to go close with a smoother passage. Still 6lb higher than when bolting up at Brighton in October; Tapeta may suit him better.
8	8 (8) (8/1 +6%) Suanni	8 8/1(+6%)	(8) Suanni 8/1, Below-par when unable to get the outright lead, finishing 5¼ lengths eighth of 9 to Second Collection in a handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 25 days ago. Could bounce back. C&D winner; behind a couple of these at Wolverhampton last time and needs to bounce back.
4	4 (4) (20/1 +29%) Wakai Umi	20 20/1(+29%)	(4) Wakai Umi 20/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. 9/1, last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton 50 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Each-way claims on the best of her form. 0-13 since her successful stable debut; needs a turnaround.
5	5 (5) (25/1 -39%) Voodoo Ray	25 25/1(-39%)	(5) Voodoo Ray 25/1, Has been out of form, latest when last of 12 to Unavailable in handicap at this course (6f, AW) 19 days ago. Hard to recommend despite falling mark, although any support in the market would be significant. Hasn't beaten many in his last eight outings; interesting to see if his backers return.

13:15 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Nordic Glory and My Genghis are reliable options, while Second Collection was revived by first-time blinkers when landing a similar event at Wolverhampton last month. She rates a key player nudged up just 1lb, but MY TURN NOW was too keen for her own good in that race and may be able to turn the tables if settling better. Unavailable is not dismissed back over 5f and adds further depth to a competitive event for the grade.

A competitive race with several who like to go forward and that could set it up for SECOND COLLECTION who benefitted from a patient ride when scoring in first-time blinkers last time. My Genghis hasn't had things go his way on his last few starts and he can make it a 1-2 for his in-form stable. Recent course winner Unavailable can go well again.

This can go to NORDIC GLORY who loves it around here and who ran very well at this venue last time on his return from a break.

3	3 (3) (3/1 +10%) Monsieur Beaulieu	3 3/1(+10%)	(3) Monsieur Beaulieu 3/1, C&D winner in December. Creditable third of 11 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 11/4) 10 days ago. Enjoying a good run and got to be of interest again. Has run well in all three visits here including a win over this trip; should go well again.
7	7 (7) (10/3 +11%) Bell Shot	3.333333 10/3(+11%)	(7) Bell Shot 10/3, C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at this C&D (AW) 19 days ago. Respected. C&D winner who ran well here last time, but needs a little more to defy this mark.
1	1 (1) (9/2 -13%) Giant	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(1) Giant 9/2, 6/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, respectable fourth of 14 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 65 days ago, better placed than most. First run at Lingfield. Still 6lb higher than for his sole handicap success; first visit here.
5	5 (5) (11/2 -22%) Thapa Vc	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(5) Thapa Vc 11/2, C&D winner. Off 11 weeks, 13/2, good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 10 days ago, finishing well (Monsieur Beaulieu third). Solid claims off the same mark. Only just failed to get up over C&D ten days ago; a repeat would give him every chance.
2	2 (2) (8/1 +20%) Giorgio M	8 8/1(+20%)	(2) Giorgio M 8/1, Unreliable sort. Below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 7/1) 27 days ago. Others more persuasive. Back off last winning mark, but a modest effort last time; first visit to Lingfield.
4	4 (4) (10/1 0%) G'daay	10 10/1(0%)	(4) G'daay 10/1, C&D winner. Scored in August. Respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 33/1) 36 days ago. Back below last winning mark. C&D winner who has dropped 1lb lower than when last successful; could go well.
8	8 (8) (12/1 +25%) Soar Above	12 12/1(+25%)	(8) Soar Above 12/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2022. Bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap (5/1) at Kempton (7f) 116 days ago. Will find easier races. Makes his first visit here; record suggests this first start in four months may be needed.
6	6 (6) (16/1 +20%) Arctician	16 16/1(+20%)	(6) Arctician 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton in October. 11/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 67 days ago. All five wins have come over 7f on the AW, but needs to bounce back from a modest effort.
9	9 (9) (25/1 +24%) Twirler	25 25/1(+24%)	(9) Twirler 25/1, 33/1, first run since leaving Charlie Fellowes when sixth of 7 in handicap at this course (8f, AW) 10 days ago. Dual AW winner and could show more now. A bit hit and miss since winning twice on Tapeta early last year; held on stable debut.

13:45 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Monsieur Beaulieu has been a good servant for Nick Littmoden and having won over C&D last month, he can have a major say after being narrowly denied when third off this figure back here on New Year's Eve. However, fellow track-and-trip winner BELL SHOT, who has hit the target off higher marks on turf, potentially offers more value after hinting at a revival of late. Thapa VC is closely matched with his two likely main rivals so also enters calculations.

THAPA VC and Monsieur Beaulieu are closely matched on their running here last week and can come to the fore again, with Mark Rimell's charge fancied to come out on top if getting the breaks. Bell Shot is also respected.

The vote goes to THAPA VC who only just failed to get up over C&D ten days ago. He can go one better from the same mark.

2	2 (2) (3/1 +10%) The Thames Boatman	3 3/1(+10%)	(2) The Thames Boatman 3/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in September and shaped as if better for the run when sixth of 8 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 5/1) 10 days ago. 3-4 around here; should get the strong pace he needs and a big effort is anticipated.
1	1 (1) (3/1 0%) Michaela's Boy	3 3/1(0%)	(1) Michaela's Boy 3/1, Confirmed recent promise when winning 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 14 days ago, all out. Small rise in the weights may not prevent the follow up. 1lb higher than for a narrow win last time, but didn't run very well in only visit here.
5	5 (5) (4/1 +0%) Mc Loven	4 4/1(+0%)	(5) Mc Loven 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in July. 6/5, creditable second of 7 in handicap at this C&D (AW) 19 days ago. Seems sure to go well again. Record over C&D reads 132; could be hard to catch if left alone in front.
3	3 (3) (5/1 +0%) Diomed Spirit	5 5/1(+0%)	(3) Diomed Spirit 5/1, C&D winner who returned to form on his second run back from a break when third of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 32 days ago. Can remain competitive. C&D winner; back to form when a close third last time; contender if backing that up.
6	6 (6) (5/1 +44%) G'day Mate	5 5/1(+44%)	(6) G'day Mate 5/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 8/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, took a step back in the right direction when fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (6f, AW) 19 days ago, doing too much too soon. Possibilities if building on that run. 0-9 since joining this yard; may need the extra furlong now.
4	4 (4) (10/1 +0%) Almaty Star	10 10/1(+0%)	(4) Almaty Star 10/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Goodwood in September. Possibly unsuited by conditions when eighth of 10 in handicap at Chester (5.1f, soft) on final outing and could bounce back returning after a break. Has gone well fresh before and appears to like this C&D (record 122); shortlisted.
7	7 (7) (12/1 +0%) Dashing Harry	12 12/1(+0%)	(7) Dashing Harry 12/1, Latest win at Southwell in November. Too free last 2 outings, including in a first-time hood at this course latterly. Out of the frame in three starts since winning at Southwell in November; others preferred.

14:20 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

THE THAMES BOATMAN, who has form that ties in with a few of these, overcame a tardy start to get back to winning ways over C&D in September and, having been tried in deeper races since, he can uphold the form with runner-up Almaty Star and third-placed Mc Loven off just a 3lb higher rating. A previous C&D winner, Diomed Spirit isn't weighted out of this and is another to bear in mind if he attracts support in the betting.

MICHAELA'S BOY did quite well to hold off a pair ridden in contrasting fashion at Wolverhampton a fortnight ago and is the percentage call to go in again following a small rise in the weights. Mc Loven and Diomed Sprit head the opposition in tightly-knit affair.

Another chance is given to THE THAMES BOATMAN. He lost his unbeaten course record last time, but that was in a 0-105 contest.

Escapes a penalty for that success and has obvious claims of following up. 7-13 on AW; won 11 days ago; has same mark today (due to go back up 3lb) and a big chance.

Seems likely to go well again. Reliable and never better, winning over 1m3f at Southwell in between two seconds over 1m4f.
4	4 (4) (5/1 +17%) Sharp Distinction	5 5/1(+17%)	(4) Sharp Distinction 5/1, Took advantage of drop in the weights over C&D in November prior to showing some aptitude for hurdling at Southwell (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut. Merits consideration back in this sphere. Latest Flat start was a C&D win in November; hurdling debut last month did not go so well.
7	7 (7) (7/1 +13%) Addosh	7 7/1(+13%)	(7) Addosh 7/1, Produced the best turn of finishing speed to come out on top in a falsely-run race at Wolverhampton in October and ran to a similar level under a penalty in a deeper race there next time. Drops back in trip after a break. Not dismissed but she needs to better her October AW form by some way.
5	5 (5) (8/1 +60%) Haliphon	8 8/1(+60%)	(5) Haliphon 8/1, Latest win at Haydock in September. 14/1 and visored for 1st time, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 23 days ago. September saw him end a long losing run; thereabouts in three of four races since.
1	1 (1) (10/1 +0%) Met Office	10 10/1(+0%)	(1) Met Office 10/1, 5/1, bit below form when sixth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 23 days ago, caught wider than ideal. Not dismissed down in grade. 50-1 win in November 2023; approached that form only once (three starts back) last year.
3	3 (3) (16/1 -14%) Annexation	16 16/1(-14%)	(3) Annexation 16/1, Ran one of lesser races when seventh of 8 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 50/1). Off 105 days. First run for yard after leaving Henry De Bromhead and in with a shout if bouncing back. Tried further than 10.5f on Flat only once; sold out of Henry de Bromhead's for £3,000.

14:55 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Having accounted for Charlie's Choice in an apprentice handicap at Wolverhampton last week, TORTURED SOUL should prove tough to beat racing off the same mark. The son of Zoffany is 3lb well-in and edges the vote over Addosh, who has performed with credit since racing under the tutelage of James Owen and a 77-day break may have freshened her up. Sharp Distinction is also noted reverting to the C&D of his last victory.

TORTURED SOUL was right back on song when scoring at Wolverhampton recently and is a straightforward choice to follow up given he escapes a penalty for that success. Charlie's Choice can go well again, while Sharp Distinction remains fairly treated on old form.

Having been first and second at Wolverhampton 11 days ago, TORTURED SOUL (nap) and Charlie's Choice can come to the fore again.

8	8 (8) (4/1 +20%) The Spotlight Kid	4 4/1(+20%)	(8) The Spotlight Kid 4/1, Latest win at Kempton in November. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 13/2) 20 days ago. Unable to land the hat-trick there but continues in good form and can go well once more. In good form since returned to AW and remains favourably treated on historical data.
5	5 (5) (5/1 -11%) Roscioli	5 5/1(-11%)	(5) Roscioli 5/1, 9/2, respectable third of 9 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good to soft) 94 days ago, doing too much too soon. Worth a look on return. Placed in last three attempts over C&D; each-way possibilities.
4	4 (4) (13/2 -8%) Book Of Life	6.5 13/2(-8%)	(4) Book Of Life 13/2, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 6/1, eighth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 13 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Runner-up 3 times prior to that and can go well. 0-12 for current yard but ties in with H Key Lails on penultimate effort (over C&D).
1	1 (1) (15/2 +25%) My Mate Mike	7.5 15/2(+25%)	(1) My Mate Mike 15/2, Course winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. Latest win at Wolverhampton in July. Eighth of 12 in handicap (3/1) at this course (7f, AW) 37 days ago. All wins over 7f and has something to prove back up in distance.
9	9 (9) (12/1 +33%) Colorada Dancer	12 12/1(+33%)	(9) Colorada Dancer 12/1, Won at York in 2023. Eighth of 11 in handicap (10/1) at Ayr (8f, good) 92 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. First run for yard after leaving Richard Fahey. Not solid on 2024 form; debut for new yard.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +36%) Claxton Bay	14 14/1(+36%)	(7) Claxton Bay 14/1, Winner at Beverley in September. Last of 12 in handicap at this C&D (AW, 25/1) 58 days ago. Failed to beat a rival in last two AW attempts.
10	10 (10) (20/1 -43%) Gone Rogue	20 20/1(-43%)	(10) Gone Rogue 20/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, first run since leaving Charlie Johnston when last of 11 in handicap at this course (10f, AW) 19 days ago. On a tempting mark. 0-4 on AW but is well handicapped on best turf form.
6	6 (6) (20/1 -25%) Havana Touch	20 20/1(-25%)	(6) Havana Touch 20/1, Won at Chelmsford in 2023. Hooded for 1st time, last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 16/1) 27 days ago, very slowly away. Interesting to see market support. Well held on Tapeta the last twice; consistent (312424) in Polytrack handicaps.
3	3 (3) (25/1 +24%) Royal Jet	25 25/1(+24%)	(3) Royal Jet 25/1, Won for Andrew Balding in 2023. Blinkered for 1st time, eleventh of 12 in handicap (33/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 22 days ago. Looking regressive and bit to prove. Has regressed sharply on AW for new stable.

15:25 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

H Key Lails looked better than ever when making all over track and trip and a 4lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid. He may find it harder to dominate from stall 10, though, and it could be worth chancing ROSCIOLI. The Territories gelding has hit the frame on his last three attempts over C&D and his current mark looks workable. The Spotlight Kid and Book Of Life warrant a second look as well.

H KEY LAILS is in a good vein of form and was well ridden by Callum Hutchinson when accounting for Book of Life here 3 weeks ago. He can see off that rival once more. The Spotlight Kid should also be in the mix again.

H Key Lails is respected but he had the run of the race over C&D last month when beating BOOK OF LIFE, who gets the vote.

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.
