16:15 Southwell Maiden (Class 4) 5f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (1/1 +56%) Hammer The Hammer	1 1/1(+56%)	(1) Hammer The Hammer 1/1, Fair form when making the frame both starts last year, no match for a promising newcomer when second of 4 in maiden at Ayr (5f, good to firm, 9/4) on second outing in July. Could be in the mix after 7 months off. Form of his Ayr 2nd when last seen looks solid; open to improvement; respected after break.
3	3 (3) (2/1 +33%) Sudden Flight	2 2/1(+33%)	(3) Sudden Flight 2/1, Made some appeal on paper and shaped well amidst greenness when third of 10 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 10/3) on debut 20 days ago. Entitled to progress with that experience behind him. Promising 3rd at Wolverhampton (6f) three weeks ago; open to improvement and 5f no concern.
6	6 (6) (13/2 -86%) Coeur Jaune	6.5 13/2(-86%)	(6) Coeur Jaune 13/2, Made a promising debut when third behind the subsequent Queen Mary winner at Nottingham last summer. Only fifth of 7 in maiden at Ripon (5f, good, 11/8) 2 weeks later, but she's well worth another chance on her return. Debut 3rd was a solid run; absent since flopping on soft two weeks later; considered.
8	8 (8) (7/1 -133%) Queenofdestruction	7 7/1(-133%)	(8) Queenofdestruction 7/1, Runner-up in 3 of her 5 starts and beaten only 1½ lengths when fourth of 6 in novice at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 10/3) 11 days ago. Can make her presence felt with hood on 1st time. Expensive to follow after a near-miss on debut; leading form claims in a new hood.
4	4 (4) (18/1 +0%) Youvegotoshowmeluv	18 18/1(+0%)	(4) Youvegotoshowmeluv 18/1, Encouraging third at Catterick on debut but well held both starts since, in first-time hood when fifth of 10 in novice (50/1) at this C&D in October. Tongue strap applied after 4 months off. Failed to build on debut promise in two subsequent 2yo runs; tongue tied for his return.
2	2 (2) (100/1 -614%) Snow Creek	100 100/1(-614%)	(2) Snow Creek 100/1, Still in need of the experience but showed more than on his first start when fifth of 6 in novice at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 50/1) 11 days ago, closing up late. Further progress required. Modest form in two novice runs on Tapeta this year; handicaps beckon after this.
5	5 (5) (150/1 -355%) Bothy Park	150 150/1(-355%)	(5) Bothy Park 150/1, In hood/tongue strap first time up, shaped as if one for the longer term when sixth of 12 in maiden at Newcastle (5f, 66/1) 27 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces added with tongue tie discarded. Modest form but shaped with plenty of encouragement at Newcastle on debut; new accessories.
7	7 (7) (200/1 -300%) Mary Murray	200 200/1(-300%)	(7) Mary Murray 200/1, Showed good speed before ultimately finishing well beaten when last of 9 in maiden (80/1) at this C&D on debut 22 days ago. Looks to be up against it. 80-1 when dropping right away from halfway here three weeks ago.

16:15 Southwell Maiden (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

SUDDEN FLIGHT displayed plenty of early speed when third on debut at Wolverhampton over 6f and the manner of that performance suggested the drop to 5f would help to make the difference required on this occasion. Queenofdestruction sports a hood for the first time and the daughter of Dandy Man commands plenty of respect, while others for the shortlist include Hammer The Hammer and Coeur Jaune.

Having shown plenty on debut, COEUR JAUNE had excuses when fifth at Ripon next time, possibly finding the race coming too soon/unsuited by the track, so she is taken to get back on track on her reappearance. She can see off the challenge of Queenofdestruction, who has yet to finish out of the frame, with Sudden Flight also considered.

A trappy maiden in which SUDDEN FLIGHT can build on his recent Wolverhampton third. Hammer The Hammer is interesting after a break.

16:45 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 12f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
7	7 (7) (5/4 +58%) Sugar Road	1.25 5/4(+58%)	(7) Sugar Road 5/4, Stepped forward from debut when third at this course (11.1f) in July. Wasn't in quite the same form when fourth of 8 in novice at Hamilton (11.1f, heavy, 5/1) the following month, but he's respected on return (has been gelded). Three starts last summer, notably finishing useful third in 1m3f novice here.
1	1 (1) (11/8 -158%) Java Raja	1.375 11/8(-158%)	(1) Java Raja 11/8, Bred to be useful and, upped in trip/fitted with tongue strap, much improved from debut when winning 12-runner maiden at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 4/1) 67 days ago, easily. Can continue his progress to follow up. Improved to win ordinary 1m4f AW maiden at Wolverhampton in December; has a penalty.
3	3 (3) (5/1 +0%) Foxlight	5 5/1(+0%)	(3) Foxlight 5/1, Sea The Stars gelding who made a winning start in 7-runner bumper at Lingfield (16f, slow, 18/1) 74 days ago, leading approaching final 1f and quickening clear. Merits consideration making debut in this sphere. Won 2m AW bumper at Lingfield on debut; could have more to give now switching to the Flat.
2	2 (2) (12/1 +64%) Agathon	12 12/1(+64%)	(2) Agathon 12/1, After 15 months off from debut, unable to sustain effort when twelfth of 20 in maiden at the Curragh (12f, soft, 14/1) in October 2023. Absent again since (gelded) ahead of first run since leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien. Two starts for Joseph O'Brien in Ireland separated by more than a year; off 498 days.
8	8 (8) (40/1 -60%) Miss Applejack	40 40/1(-60%)	(8) Miss Applejack 40/1, Winner at 20f over hurdles in December. Modest form when second of 4 in novice at Wolverhampton (9.5f) on Flat debut and matched that level when sixth of 12 in similar event there (8.6f) 10 days ago. More needed upped in trip. Moderate in two AW Flat starts over a bit shorter at Wolverhampton; this trip may help.
5	5 (5) (66/1 -65%) Courageous Gold	66 66/1(-65%)	(5) Courageous Gold 66/1, Very green first time up but went backwards from that effort when tenth of 13 in maiden (66/1) at Kempton (11f) 32 days ago. Has work to do. Moderate in two starts, hanging left both times.
4	4 (4) (125/1 -150%) Jysuis	125 125/1(-150%)	(4) Jysuis 125/1, Placed all 3 bumpers in France. However, yet to finish better than mid-field over hurdles for current yard, well-beaten ninth of 12 in handicap at Bangor (16.7f, good, 33/1) when last seen in September. Placed in bumpers in France 2023; more recently a moderate maiden over hurdles in Britain.
6	6 (6) (300/1 -200%) Paradise Circus	300 300/1(-200%)	(6) Paradise Circus 300/1, Always behind in bumper on debut and has fared no better switched to this sphere, eleventh of 12 in novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 250/1) 10 days ago. Step up in trip not enough to tempt. No sign of ability yet; best to look elsewhere.

16:45 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

SUGAR ROAD didn't appear to be in love with the heavy ground when fourth to a subsequent Listed winner at Hamilton in August. The runner-up also advertised the form by landing a valuable handicap next time and the son of Masar, who was gelded after that performance, is taken to come out on top. Java Raja benefited plenty from his first run when scoring at Wolverhampton in December and has to enter the reckoning, while Lingfield bumper winner Foxlight appears best of the remainder.

JAVA RAJA left behind his debut effort when scoring in convincing fashion at Wolverhampton in December, so he looks to hold leading claims with further improvement to come. Sugar Road wasn't able to build on his previous promise faced with softer ground on his final outing last year, but he could fare better on return, with Foxlight completing the shortlist.

An interesting race in which JAVA RAJA is taken to follow up his Wolverhampton win, marginally preferred to Sugar Road.

17:15 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 12f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
5	5 (5) (2/7 +14%) Liam Swagger	0.285714 2/7(+14%)	(5) Liam Swagger 2/7, 0-7 on the Flat but showed pretty useful form. Two hurdle wins in the autumn show he can get the job done and he sets a clear standard back on the level. Useful on the Flat, including AW, without winning, before finding success over hurdles.
6	6 (6) (4/1 -14%) Roland Garros	4 4/1(-14%)	(6) Roland Garros 4/1, 200,000 gns Nathaniel colt who produced a promising first effort when 4 lengths fourth of 13 in 9.5f Wolverhampton maiden last April but not seen again until only seventh at Newcastle 8 months later. Still early days but will need improvement to seriously trouble Liam Swagger. Finished weakly in 1m4f Newcastle novice when resuming in December; off again since.
4	4 (4) (6/1 +25%) Another Lifetime	6 6/1(+25%)	(4) Another Lifetime 6/1, Left Curragh debut (for Andrew Oliver) behind when third of 7 in 11f course novice for Nigel Hawke just after Christmas, shaping as if today's slightly longer trip should suit. Has changed yard again and his new stable is in form. Fair third for N Hawke in 1m3f novice here in December after three months off; form claims.
1	1 (1) (40/1 -21%) Cascade Hall	40 40/1(-21%)	(1) Cascade Hall 40/1, Second in a Limerick maiden hurdle for Damian Murphy in October but well-held sixth of 7 switched to the Flat at Newcastle on his recent debut for Jim Goldie. Runner-up in a maiden hurdle in Ireland in October; always behind in 1m AW maiden latest.
3	3 (3) (150/1 -50%) Opera King	150 150/1(-50%)	(3) Opera King 150/1, Modest hurdler for Nigel Twiston-Davies and no promise in 2 Flat outings since switching to Scott Dixon. Tailed off in two AW Flat starts over shorter than this since joining current stable.
8	8 (8) (150/1 -127%) Ruby Kendyl	150 150/1(-127%)	(8) Ruby Kendyl 150/1, 300/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Kempton (11f) on debut 32 days ago. 300-1 when well beaten in similar race at Kempton on debut.

17:15 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

LIAM SWAGGER may well be using this ahead of a potential tilt at Cheltenham and James Owen's gelding appears to have been found the ideal opportunity to gain his first victory on the level. Another Lifetime ran with plenty of credit when third here in December, having stumbled leaving the stalls, and is open to further improvement. Roland Garros is worth another chance to showcase his true ability following a below par effort at Newcastle.

Dual juvenile hurdle winner LIAM SWAGGER also ran to a pretty good level on the Flat last year and should prove very hard to beat. Roland Garros is preferred to Another Lifetime for the forecast spot.

This looks a good opportunity for LIAM SWAGGER, who showed useful ability on the Flat before finding success over hurdles.

17:45 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (9/4 +18%) Zarathos	2.25 9/4(+18%)	(2) Zarathos 9/4, Thrice-raced maiden. 6/1, best race when third of 8 in maiden at this course (7.1f) 38 days ago. Opening mark looks a fair one so merits consideration back up in trip. Modest ability in three 7f-1m maiden/novices, most recently over the shorter trip here.
10	10 (10) (7/2 -5%) Whizz By	3.5 7/2(-5%)	(10) Whizz By 7/2, Much improved for the switch to handicaps, completing a course hat-trick (all at 7f) 49 days ago, driven out. Shapes as if she'll stay this far and she remains of interest. 3-3 in handicaps over 7f here; the runner-up from her latest win has won both starts since.
3	3 (3) (4/1 +11%) Panama Black	4 4/1(+11%)	(3) Panama Black 4/1, Fair maiden. Good second of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 5/2) 11 days ago, just denied. Solid claims off same mark. 0-6; placed in 7f-9.4f handicaps elsewhere last three starts; should be thereabouts again.
1	1 (1) (8/1 -23%) Sorbus	8 8/1(-23%)	(1) Sorbus 8/1, Better for debut when winning 6-runner maiden at Kempton (8f, 4/1) 37 days ago, having run of race. First run for yard after leaving Ed Walker. Makes handicap debut. More required but is unexposed. Ex-Ed Walker; won 1m Kempton maiden (second won since); subsequently sold for 60,000gns.
4	4 (4) (17/2 +23%) Lady Mariko	8.5 17/2(+23%)	(4) Lady Mariko 17/2, Fair maiden. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 17/2) 13 days ago, never nearer. More is required. Most recently fifth of seven in steadily run 1m Newcastle handicap; more is needed.
6	6 (6) (10/1 +9%) Noble Phoenix	10 10/1(+9%)	(6) Noble Phoenix 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Sixth of 12 in novice (18/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f). Off 137 days. Gelded since last seen and type to do better for powerful yard now switched to handicaps. Modest in three 7f starts last season but a potential improver on return; newly gelded.
7	7 (7) (20/1 -11%) Fernando	20 20/1(-11%)	(7) Fernando 20/1, Winner at Yarmouth in October. 7/2, last of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 41 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ed Walker. Others more persuasive. Ex-Ed Walker; won turf nursery and nose second in C&D nursery last year; ran poorly latest.
5	5 (5) (22/1 +33%) Rokuni	22 22/1(+33%)	(5) Rokuni 22/1, Winner at Brighton in August. Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 24 days ago. Step up in trip is a concern. Unplaced in two 7f AW handicaps elsewhere this winter; needs to improve for the extra trip.
9	9 (9) (25/1 -108%) Orchestral Wave	25 25/1(-108%)	(9) Orchestral Wave 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 8 in novice (7/1) at Chelmsford City (10f) 71 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Charlie Fellowes. Makes handicap debut. Drop back in trip is a concern. Ex-Charlie Fellowes; placed in maiden/novice company over a bit further elsewhere.

17:45 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

WHIZZ BY successfully completed the hat-trick at this track on her most recent start and a 4lb rise for that victory may not be enough to prevent her from going in again. Panama Black is another to watch out for as he has been knocking hard on the door of late and is 1lb well-in at the weights. Sorbus also makes plenty of appeal.

PANAMA BLACK went very close off this mark at Wolverhampton 11 days ago so tops the shortlist with the drop back in trip a positive if anything. Whizz By unearthed further improvement when seeing off a subsequent winner when completing a course/handicap hat-trick here 7 weeks ago and is an obvious threat, with Zarathos also considered.

A competitive handicap in which the lightly raced SORBUS is taken to follow up her recent maiden win, just preferred to Whizz By.

18:15 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 6f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (3/1 -9%) Rohaan	3 3/1(-9%)	(1) Rohaan 3/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (4/1) 22 days ago, left poorly placed. Needs things to drop right but he's handicapped to strike and well worth considering here. Kept on well for 4th in a stronger C&D handicap three weeks ago; each-way shout at least.
6	6 (6) (4/1 +67%) Chief Mankato	4 4/1(+67%)	(6) Chief Mankato 4/1, Yet to get his head in front in handicaps but went close at Chelmsford/over C&D late last year. Finishing effort didn't match the way he travelled when sixth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6f) in November but he's clearly on a workable mark on return from a break. Conditions fine and on a fair mark; not well drawn latest; can't discount.
2	2 (2) (4/1 -14%) Many A Star	4 4/1(-14%)	(2) Many A Star 4/1, Thriving sort who made it 3 wins from last 4 starts when taking 7-runner C&D handicap 2 weeks ago, leading last ½f and doing it cosily. Of interest again up 3 lb in present groove. Won three of his last four, the last two over C&D for W Carver; should remain competitive.
5	5 (5) (6/1 -9%) Flying Fletcher	6 6/1(-9%)	(5) Flying Fletcher 6/1, Latest win at Newcastle (6f) in November. 5/1, creditable third of 8 in handicap back at that track/trip 29 days ago, left poorly placed. Looks competitive on form. Unexposed as a sprinter; ran well in adverse conditions last time; still capable of better.
4	4 (4) (7/1 -27%) Cairn Gorm	7 7/1(-27%)	(4) Cairn Gorm 7/1, Made light of a 15-month absence when scoring on stable debut at Wolverhampton (6f) in December. Backed that up when second of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 2/1) 19 days ago and he's another in the mix from unchanged mark. Two solid efforts for new yard after a long absence; still feasibly weighted on old form.
8	8 (8) (9/1 +36%) Ormolulu	9 9/1(+36%)	(8) Ormolulu 9/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 11/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 6 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Others arrive with more pressing claims at present. Three C&D wins this winter; not at her best at Newcastle last week but return here a plus.
9	9 (9) (16/1 -60%) Fools Rush In	16 16/1(-60%)	(9) Fools Rush In 16/1, Course winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. 5/2, run best excused when fifth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 10 days ago, doing too much too soon mid-race. Can give a good account returned to sprinting. Three wins since joining this yard; has a rare 6f run today but still feasibly weighted.
3	3 (3) (18/1 -157%) Twilight Romance	18 18/1(-157%)	(3) Twilight Romance 18/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who ended last season with a good fifth of 11 in handicap (10/1) at Ayr (6f, good to firm) in July. Had wind op/fitted with a hood for return and not discounted given he's unexposed on artificial surfaces. Appeals as a sprinter to follow this year; hooded back from a break; check the market.
7	7 (7) (28/1 -100%) Intervention	28 28/1(-100%)	(7) Intervention 28/1, C&D winner. Twenty four runs since last win in 2023. Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 20/1) in November. Assessor has afforded him a chance back from 3 months off. Yard also saddle Cairn Gorm. 0-24 last year but regularly ran well; lowly mark for return; yard also runs Cairn Gorm.

18:15 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Despite pulling hard, MANY A STAR still managed to score over track and trip last time, which made it three wins out of his last four starts. The eight-year-old remains in the same class and still has room for manoeuvre off his current rating, so he looks the one to beat. Cairn Gorm produced a good effort when second at Lingfield at the start of the month and should remain competitive off an unchanged mark, while Rohaan isn't out of it either.

ROHAAN was noted finishing to good effect when fourth in a race not run to suit over C&D 22 days ago and, operating from a very handy mark, he's selected to come out on top in the hope he gets a good gallop to aim at. Flying Fletcher and Many A Star, who is enjoying a fine winter, are others on the shortlist.

Cairn Gorm is better than he showed last time but so is FLYING FLETCHER (nap), who still appeals as being well treated.

1	1 (1) (2/1 +11%) Taskheer	2 2/1(+11%)	(1) Taskheer 2/1, Modest gelding. 5/2, won 8-runner minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 5 days ago, always holding on. Shortlist material. Has been much better than this level and landed a touch at Lingfield on Sunday; big chance.
12	12 (12) (5/1 -25%) You Are Everything	5 5/1(-25%)	(12) You Are Everything 5/1, Modest mare. Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Creditable second of 11 in minor event (9/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 11 days ago. Enters calculations. 17-race maiden but unlucky over 7f last time and she's capable of winning one of these.
4	4 (4) (6/1 +50%) Fifty Sent	6 6/1(+50%)	(4) Fifty Sent 6/1, Modest gelding. One win from 28 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 12/1, good fourth of 10 in minor event at Newcastle (8f) 7 days ago. Fourth at this level at Newcastle last week; more required to win and just 1-28.
2	2 (2) (8/1 -23%) Big Narstie	8 8/1(-23%)	(2) Big Narstie 8/1, Quirky sort. Course winner. Three wins from 17 runs last year. Creditable third of 10 in minor event at Newcastle (8f, 7/2) 7 days ago, conceding first run. Chance. Two-time course winner; placed at this level the last twice; each-way claims again.
3	3 (3) (9/1 -6%) Brinton	9 9/1(-6%)	(3) Brinton 9/1, Modest filly. 11/2, creditable 4 lengths third of 8 to Taskheer in minor event at Lingfield (8f, AW) 5 days ago, running on. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Can fluff the start; third behind Taskheer on Sunday; now gets headgear; e-w shout.
5	5 (5) (10/1 +17%) Fistral Beach	10 10/1(+17%)	(5) Fistral Beach 10/1, Modest filly. 4/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 15 days ago. 0-13 but she's run well in 7f handicaps here on her last three starts; 1m could help.
8	8 (8) (14/1 -17%) Mr Slicker	14 14/1(-17%)	(8) Mr Slicker 14/1, Modest gelding. Eighteen runs since last win in 2023. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (15/2) at this C&D 14 days ago. Merits consideration. Running with credit here this year but more will be needed to come out on top this time.
11	11 (11) (14/1 +0%) Van Zant	14 14/1(+0%)	(11) Van Zant 14/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 10/1, fifth of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 13 days ago. 7f win here last month but less good twice since; has run well for today's rider.
10	10 (10) (18/1 -29%) Stoic Syd	18 18/1(-29%)	(10) Stoic Syd 18/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner. Last of 9 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 8/1) 15 days ago. Tongue strap back on. C&D winner; perhaps needed this month's return from a six-month break; not ruled out.
6	6 (6) (25/1 -233%) Inexplicable	25 25/1(-233%)	(6) Inexplicable 25/1, Modest gelding. C&D winner. 17/2, creditable second of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 13 days ago, doing too much too soon. C&D winner but tends to save his best for Wolverhampton's extended 1m; others look safer.
7	7 (7) (50/1 +0%) Maguire	50 50/1(+0%)	(7) Maguire 50/1, Modest gelding. Last of 9 in handicap (66/1) at this C&D 14 days ago. Lightly raced 4yo but few positives to be gleaned from his six runs since October.
9	9 (9) (150/1 -200%) Rohilla	150 150/1(-200%)	(9) Rohilla 150/1, Eighth of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 66/1) 25 days ago, very slowly away. Big prices and little impact in six AW starts since making her debut in November.

18:45 Southwell Stakes (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

You Are Everything did well to only be denied by a nose into second in this class over 7f at Wolverhampton last time considering she suffered a troubled passage turning for home. However, it may pay to side with INEXPLICABLE, who accounted for Brinton (third) when beaten by the smallest of margins into second over an extended mile at Wolverhampton earlier this month. With a repeat of that display, he will prove hard to beat.

TASKHEER landed a gamble in a similar event at Lingfield on Sunday and he can follow up with a good-value claimer counteracting his penalty. You Are Everything is a long-standing maiden but she only just failed in a similar race at Wolverhampton last time so rates the main threat ahead of Big Narstie and Mr Slicker.

Brinton may get closer to TASKHEER today but the selection is still fancied to follow up Sunday's easy Lingfield win.

2	2 (2) (2/1 +11%) Portoro	2 2/1(+11%)	(2) Portoro 2/1, Typically travelled well when landing 9-runner handicap at this C&D (10/3) 15 days ago. Should give another good account. Has been holding form well for a while, most recently successful in C&D handicap; up 2lb.
7	7 (7) (4/1 +33%) Clyde Bay	4 4/1(+33%)	(7) Clyde Bay 4/1, Keen sort returned to form (well-backed) on first run for yard after leaving Eve Johnson Houghton, third of 10 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, again racing freely. Tongue strap back on and remains to be seen if he can build on most recent effort. Favourite when C&D third on last week's stable debut; took keen hold and carried head high.
5	5 (5) (11/2 +66%) Yorkstone	5.5 11/2(+66%)	(5) Yorkstone 11/2, Out of sorts this winter. Best to look elsewhere. Last success was a dead-heat over 1m here in December 2023; needs to bounce back to form.
4	4 (4) (7/1 -75%) Bomb Squad	7 7/1(-75%)	(4) Bomb Squad 7/1, Course winner has been in good form most of the winter, latest win coming here in January. Respectable third of 8 in handicap (13/2) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 13 days ago and should run well again. In fine form including narrow 6f handicap win here in January; has never won over this far.
6	6 (6) (10/1 -54%) Autumn Angel	10 10/1(-54%)	(6) Autumn Angel 10/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in January. Slowly away again when fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 13/2) 18 days ago. Each-way claims. Two-time course winner and successful elsewhere twice this winter; probably thereabouts.
3	3 (3) (10/1 -25%) Pinjarra	10 10/1(-25%)	(3) Pinjarra 10/1, Not seen to best effect having been hampered 1f out when 5/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago. Shouldn't be discounted at this level. Hinted at better to come when denied clear run in C&D handicap latest.
9	9 (9) (14/1 -17%) Lion's Dream	14 14/1(-17%)	(9) Lion's Dream 14/1, Turned in his best effort of the season when fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 7 days ago. Could run well in first-time visor. On a lengthy losing run; didn't miss out by much when fourth in a C&D handicap last week.
10	10 (10) (18/1 -29%) Melsmay	18 18/1(-29%)	(10) Melsmay 18/1, Only limited promise when fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (16/1) 15 days ago and hard to fancy from 1 lb out of the handicap. 0-7; more needed than when unplaced in C&D handicap latest.
8	8 (8) (25/1 -14%) Create	25 25/1(-14%)	(8) Create 25/1, Course winner has been struggling for form, most recent seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (8.1f, 40/1) 15 days ago. Others preferred. Has won here but hasn't been running well enough lately to be of interest now.
1	1 (1) (40/1 -233%) Global Warning	40 40/1(-233%)	(1) Global Warning 40/1, Has gone off the boil of late. Others preferred. Six 6f-7f AW handicaps wins elsewhere; however, failed to beat a rival on last two starts.

19:15 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

PORTORO was always holding the runner-up when scoring narrowly over track and trip earlier this month and the suspicion is that a 2lb rise may not be enough to prevent this consistent type from going in again. Clyde Bay wasn't seen to best effect when third over C&D last time and it would be no surprise if he were able to make his presence felt off an unchanged mark, while the bang in-form Bomb Squad cannot be taken lightly either.

Two-time course winner BOMB SQUAD has been running creditably for most of the winter, and this looks a realistic opportunity to get his head in front again. Smooth-travelling Portoro remains of interest having won at this venue earlier in the month, while Lion's Dream is respected in a first-time visor having returned to form last time.

There was enough from PINJARRA here last time to think he can come good now. Portoro is second choice.

7	7 (7) (2/1 +60%) Mickey Mongoose	2 2/1(+60%)	(7) Mickey Mongoose 2/1, Exploited basement mark to win 9-runner handicap at this course (8.1f) 14 days ago, having been well-backed to do so. Back in trip now and 5 lb rise in the weight makes life tougher. Last two wins gained over 1m here, including latest start; drop in trip is a question mark.
3	3 (3) (7/2 +22%) Billy Mcgarry	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(3) Billy Mcgarry 7/2, Course winner. Three wins from 11 runs last year. Benefitted from drop in trip when 3/1, good third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago. Cheekpieces left off today but should run well again. Has won here; more recently, placed on last three starts, two of them at this venue.
2	2 (2) (6/1 -200%) Windsor Pass	6 6/1(-200%)	(2) Windsor Pass 6/1, Broke her maiden tag after 29 runs without a win, winning an 8-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 22 days ago, travelling smoothly and winning with a bit hand. Very much respected in her bid to follow up that victory. Has placed here; gained first win at the 30th attempt in similar race at Chelmsford latest.
6	6 (6) (7/1 -27%) Devasboy	7 7/1(-27%)	(6) Devasboy 7/1, Thirty runs since last win in 2022 but his handicap mark is tumbling. Couldn't capitalise when sixth of 9 in handicap at this C&D (9/2) 15 days ago but not had many runs for this yard and no surprise to see a better effort. Four starts for this yard; hasn't been progressing; needs to do more than over C&D latest.
8	8 (8) (9/1 +44%) King Of York	9 9/1(+44%)	(8) King Of York 9/1, Has been struggling for form of late and fared no better in blinkers (retained) when seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago, Others preferred. Has just a 2-45 record and needs to up his recent level, but both wins gained over C&D.
1	1 (1) (9/1 +0%) Romanovich	9 9/1(+0%)	(1) Romanovich 9/1, Reappeared after 5 months off to finish fifth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 13 days ago. Goes without usual headgear again but should strip fitter for most recent outing. Three wins last year, including one on the AW elsewhere; might be better for reappearance.
4	4 (4) (11/1 +56%) Made All	11 11/1(+56%)	(4) Made All 11/1, Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests in first-time cheekpieces/following wind surgery when seventh of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 11 days ago. Makes each-way appeal off current mark. 11-race maiden but might be better for recent reappearance over further at Wolverhampton.
9	9 (9) (14/1 -40%) Barney's Bay	14 14/1(-40%)	(9) Barney's Bay 14/1, Ran best race for a while when second of 9 in handicap (40/1) at this C&D 7 days ago but it remains to be seen whether he can back that up. Back-to-form 40-1 second in C&D handicap latest; player if repeating that sort of level.
5	5 (5) (25/1 -108%) Embarked	25 25/1(-108%)	(5) Embarked 25/1, Step in the right direction when fourth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago, having gone too hard but yard have been struggling for winners of late. Nose win in C&D Class 5 handicap in September; behind Billy McGarry latest..

19:45 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Billy McGarry has posted three solid placed efforts of late, most recently over this C&D, and he looks well capable of making his presence felt off what remains a competitive mark. That said, WINDSOR PASS is preferred. The daughter of Lope De Vega did it well when scoring over this trip at Chelmsford last month and, upped just 2lb, another bold bid looks likely. Fellow last-time-out winner Mickey Mongoose rates the pick of the remainder.

WINDSOR PASS won with a bit in hand when breaking her maiden tag last month, and she is taken to follow up that victory from a 2 lb higher mark. Devasboy could be seen to better effect if a good gallop materialises, so he's second choice ahead of Billy McGarry who can hit the frame again.

A course winner who has been running well in defeat lately, BILLY MCGARRY is just preferred to Windsor Pass and Mickey Mongoose.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (3/1 +14%) Humble Spark	3 3/1(+14%)	(1) Humble Spark 3/1, Back-to-back winner at Newcastle around the turn of the year and runner-up all 3 starts since, latterly when just failing in 7-runner handicap back at that venue 13 days ago. Nudged up further 2 lb ahead of this but respected again. In fine form lately, including a second over C&D; back down from Class 4; should go well.
4	4 (4) (7/2 -40%) Tortured Soul	3.5 7/2(-40%)	(4) Tortured Soul 7/2, Course winner who confirmed more positive signs when resuming winning ways at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in December. Narrowly followed up at Lingfield (12f) 28 days ago and shortlisted in hat-trick bid from 2 lb higher mark. Twice a winner here and has won last two starts in 1m4f AW Class 5 handicaps elsewhere.
3	3 (3) (4/1 +20%) Swinging London	4 4/1(+20%)	(3) Swinging London 4/1, Course winner. Latest win here in January. 5/2, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f) 6 days ago. No reason why he won't give another good account back down in trip. Three wins this winter, two of them coming over 1m6f here; this trip doesn't seem ideal.
6	6 (6) (4/1 +11%) Kinetic	4 4/1(+11%)	(6) Kinetic 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton in February. 4/1, ninth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 13 days ago, weakening over 1f out having raced freely. Better showing anticipated. Won C&D fillies' handicap in September; another success at Kempton two starts back.
8	8 (8) (9/1 +64%) Whatacracker	9 9/1(+64%)	(8) Whatacracker 9/1, Tasted success over 11f as a 3-y-o but below best on 2 of his 3 starts during a light 2024 campaign. Others appeal more returning from 8 months off. Fair win on turf in 2023, but absent since poor run last June; hard to know what to expect.
9	9 (9) (10/1 -11%) Night Horn	10 10/1(-11%)	(9) Night Horn 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden who found some improvement when second of 5 in handicap at Sandown (14f, good) in June. Disappointed at Doncaster later that month and joined new connections for 7,000 gns thereafter. One to monitor in the betting for positive vibes back from 7 months off. Ex-Andrew Balding; pick of his form a front-running second in 1m6f turf handicap last June.
5	5 (5) (20/1 -67%) See The Green	20 20/1(-67%)	(5) See The Green 20/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. Fair winner at 2m over hurdles. Below form sixth of 10 in juvenile hurdle (17/2) at Warwick (16f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Needs to get back on track returned to this sphere with cheekpieces now reached for. Won 1m4f turf maiden for Owen Burrows last spring; more recently a winner over hurdles.
2	2 (2) (28/1 -180%) Super Superjack	28 28/1(-180%)	(2) Super Superjack 28/1, Fair handicapper who wasn't seen to best effect in a slowly-run race when fourth of 7 in handicap (22/1) at Kempton (2m) in October. Absent since and he'll need a good gallop to aim at if he's to feature down in trip. Bit more needed than at Kempton when last seen in October and he is dropping in trip.
7	7 (7) (28/1 -12%) See Paris	28 28/1(-12%)	(7) See Paris 28/1, Tenth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 50/1) 34 days ago, slowly away and always behind. Has it to prove at present now stepping back up significantly in trip. Won 1m1f turf race in Germany last year; limited promise over shorter than this in Britain.

20:15 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

HUMBLE SPARK was doing his best work late on when finishing a narrow runner-up over 1m2f at Newcastle earlier this month and, stepping back up in trip, he gets the vote. Tortured Soul arrives in search of a hat-trick having scored gamely at Wolverhampton and Lingfield the last twice and another bold bid would come as no surprise. Swinging London completes the shortlist, though this drop in distance asks a question of him.

Having tasted success on no less than 6 occasions last winter, TORTURED SOUL arrives on the back of victories at Wolverhampton/Lingfield in recent months and he looks a big player again in his hat-trick bid. Kinetic, who is best excused her latest run, Humble Spark and Swinging London head up the dangers in the finale.

The hat-trick seeking TORTURED SOUL just gets the vote over Humble Spark, who has been in similarly good form.

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.
