16:25 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

JEANS MAITE wasn't for catching from the front over C&D last time out and a 3lb rise may underestimate Roy Bowring's charge as she looks to notch up a ninth career success. The selection goes particularly well at this track and she should have too much for The Defiant, who bounced back to winning ways at Chelmsford earlier in the month. Darlo Pride and C&D winner Sir Benedict are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

THE DEFIANT justified good support at Chelmsford last time and, with Oisin Murphy booked, he's worth a chance to follow up from what still appears to be a feasible mark. Jeans Maite is a definite threat after making all here 8 days ago and Darlo Pride should be on the premises once more.

Wedgewood offered hope of a full revival last week but CATCH CUNNINGHAM can build on the promise of last month's stable debut.

(2) Wonderful Eagle 8/1, Fair winner at 22f over hurdles. Eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Cheltenham (16.8f, good to soft) 104 days ago. Off 104 days. Significantly up in trip. Achieved plenty on the Flat in Germany and merits respect having first go in this sphere for current yard.

Progressive stayer; ran well behind a flourishing rival here this month; one to consider.

Not seen to best effect in steadily run 1m2f races the last twice; the new trip could suit.

Four Flat wins for R Hughes; yet to shine over hurdles for current yard; risky; now hooded.

17:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 14f Race Class Flow

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

This can go the way of TRADESMAN, who should be well suited by dropping back in trip having won two of his last three starts over this distance. The form of his stable is another plus and, off a mark of 75, he is narrowly preferred to the class-dropping Artisan Dancer, who also has a very consistent record over the trip. Chaos Control spent all of last year over hurdles and must be noted on his return to the level.

ARTISAN DANCER has been holding form well and could be marked up above the result slightly last time, so he makes most appeal in a tricky staying event. Wonderful Eagle is of note making his Flat debut for this stable and the in-form Tradesman is unlikely to be far away.

Chaos Control is interesting back on the Flat but EVENING STORY could have more to give now her stamina is being more fully tested.

Promise amidst inexperience on recent Newcastle debut (1m); taking on well-bred newcomers.

Red Scotch

(6) Red Scotch 50/1, Flag of Honour colt. Dam winning hurdler. Has looked a work in progress in pair of maiden/novice events at around 1m in recent weeks and he's the sort his yard do well with in handicaps.
Showed long-term potential in two runs here over shorter; this is unlikely to be his day.

17:30 Southwell Stakes (Class 5) 11f Race Class Flow

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

A well-bred son of Frankel and brother to Fillies' Mile winner Quadrilateral, CADOGAN PLACE should relish this trip on debut, and he is fancied to come out on top for his in-form connections. Related to a Listed winner of Pat Twomey's over further, Hidden Law is another to note first time out, likewise Grebastarky being a half-brother to the talented Watch Me. Of the two with experience, Infatuator stands out after a promising second on debut at Newcastle.

A host of choicely-bred newcomers from top yards in this small-field affair, with HIDDEN LAW given preference over Grebastarky without the benefit of market clues. Cadogan Place is another worth monitoring in the betting, whilst Infatuator, one of 2 in the line-up with previous form, looks sure to improve on his encouraging debut second at Newcastle earlier this month.

Some well-related newcomers are on show and CADOGAN PLACE is tentatively preferred to Grebastarky and Hidden Law.

Bettered debut third when seeing off 11 rivals over 1m at Kempton last month; big chance.

Promising debut (7f, soft) before beaten fav at Newmarket (1m, good to firm) last autumn.

18:00 Southwell Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Suspicion confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut when getting off the mark over a mile at Kempton last month. Ollie Sangster's colt has to be of interest on the back of that effort, but he may struggle to give 6lb to VIBRATO. The son of No Nay Never was back in fourth when making his debut on that occasion and, with that run under his belt, he may be able to reverse the form on these terms. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but King's Fountain is the pick of them.

SUSPICION looked a good prospect when going in at Kempton last time and is fancied to make light of his 6 lb penalty at the chief expense of Vibrato, who made an encouraging start when fourth to Ollie Sangster's colt that day and can build on it now. King's Fountain appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

King's Fountain's debut promise isn't forgotten but the race-fit SUSPICION can take another step forward from his Kempton win.

Multiple AW winner, including over C&D; recent form suggests he'll do well to get involved.
6th

First win for yard in amateur riders' race (1m); not as good latest; looks up against it.
7th

Well held in Polytrack handicaps; best form at 1m2f on turf; Tapeta debut after a break.

18:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

LOUGH LEANE arrives here on the back of four wins this year and a 6lb higher mark than the most recent of those victories may not be enough to stop him here. That said, the unexposed Beau Gars cannot be discounted on his handicap bow, while Soames Forsyte and Win Win Power are others to note. Racing Demon is interesting on his return with Oisin Murphy doing the steering.

LOUGH LEANE continues to progress this year and is respected in his bid for the 5-timer, with Soames Forsyte and Win Win Power completing the shortlist.

Win Win Power has a fine C&D record but LOUGH LEANE is 4lb well in for his recent Wolverhampton win and he is the one to beat.

19:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

King Of York has been running consistently well this year and has to be on the shortlist following his 7f success here last week. However, marginal preference is for GREAT BLASKET, who has been running well in defeat of late and the application of first-time blinkers could bring about further improvement. Turbo Command edges out Big Narstie to be best of the rest.

A new addition to the Ruth Carr yard, RETRACTION shaped most encouragingly on his all-weather/handicap debut here earlier in the month and a chance is taken he'll step forward again with a recent run now under his belt. Last-time-out winner King of York and Landlordtothestars have both proved most consistent throughout the winter and make plenty of appeal again.

Lightly raced RETRACTION ran promisingly on his handicap debut here and should come on for the run. Landlordtothestars is next best.

(6) Etihad Rail 66/1, Fair maiden for Marcus Tregoning. Sole run for Ruth Carr when last of 4 in maiden (5/2) at Brighton (7f, good) 8 months ago. More is required on his handicap debut.
Starts out for new yard after a 261-day absence; others look better treated.

19:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

SILVER TRUMPET stripped fitter for his reappearance fourth at Lingfield when running out a game winner on his second start in a handicap over 7f at Kempton last month. Nudged up just 2lb, the suspicion is that there is more winning to be done before the handicapper has his measure. Dangers are aplenty and headed by Super Hit, who was turned over at short odds at Wolverhampton last month, but this drop to 7f can help him settle better in the early exchanges. Yaajooz is another to bear in mind.

YAAJOOZ made a promising start to life with George Boughey when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time out and with improvement very much on the cards he can go one better off the same mark. Super Hit wasn't seen to best effect when fourth at the same track and could emerge as the chief threat ahead of in-form Silver Trumpet.

A competitive race of its type but the claims of YAAJOOZ (nap) seem particularly compelling. Berry Clever may be the main threat.

(1) Mountain Warrior 9/2, Justified support equipped with first-time blinkers when landing 8-runner C&D handicap in January. Weakened out of things very quickly when last of 12 back here 18 days ago and bounce back called for now.
Both wins have come over C&D; still feasibly treated on January's win; less good latest.

High Velocity

25/1(-178%)
(4) High Velocity 25/1, Course winner. 50/1, built on belated return/yard debut when fifth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) 15 days ago, no extra final 1f. Needs more again now from easing mark.
Peak RPR came here (5f); second run for this yard was better than the first; not ruled out.

5th (8) Glamorous Express (13/2 -30%)
Glamorous Express

13/2(-30%)
(8) Glamorous Express 13/2, Eased a little in weights and thrived in recent weeks, noted travelling best as he supplemented his Kempton victory in good style at Newcastle (6f) 6 days ago. Usual tongue tie refitted here and has to be respected under a penalty for all this rates tougher.
Chasing a hat-trick after recent wins at Kempton and Newcastle; set to go well again.
6th
6th (5) Digital (14/1 -56%)
Digital

14/1(-56%)
(5) Digital 14/1, Ended long losing run in claimer at Kempton (6f) in October and similar form when third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) on final start for Karl Burke in November. Starts out for in-form yard on back of 132 days off and interesting what the market makes of him.
Goes well on AW and starts out for his new yard off a fair mark; big run on the cards.

Em Jay Kay

22/1(-83%)
(10) Em Jay Kay 22/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Eighth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D 63 days ago, trapped wide with no cover and unable to land a blow. Better showing anticipated eased 2 lb.
Absent since a disappointing C&D run nine weeks ago; usually seen in a lower grade.

Temple Bruer

15/2(+0%)
(3) Temple Bruer 15/2, 5-time winner for present yard, his latest success coming at Newmarket (6f) last June. Mixed bag on turf/AW followed but he's fallen back down to an attractive mark. Cheekpieces replace blinkers for return.
Returns from an absence on a more suitable mark; betting should be instructive.

Eight-time winner; this is easier than latest assignment but she'll need to be at her best.

20:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

GLAMOROUS EXPRESS scored with the minimum of fuss over 6f at Newcastle last week, and he can make light work of a 5lb penalty to bring up a March hat-trick. Westmorian arrives on the back of an excellent second over C&D earlier this month and he rates as the main danger to the selection off a 5lb higher mark, while the consistent One More Dream shaped as if this drop back to 6f will suit when finishing fourth over 7f at Newcastle latest.

A wide-open sprint handicap and with that in mind it could be worth chancing TEMPLE BRUER. A 5-time winner for his present yard, he returns from 5 months off on an appealing mark judged on the pick of his early-season form from this time last year and a headgear switch could also put an extra edge on him. Glamorous Express and Westmorian both arrive in good order and hold sound claims, as does One More Dream for all his mark has crept up again.

Glamorous Express is feared in his hat-trick bid but DIGITAL may be able to make a winning start for his new stable.

20:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Punters will need to be in a forgiving mood to side with CLIPSHAM LA HABANA, but it might just pay to do so. He weakened into third in a similar contest over C&D on his penultimate start, prior to finishing fifth most recently, but, sporting headgear for the first time off his lowest mark since 2022, he can get his head in front. Tyke finished last over 5f at Newcastle earlier this month, but he is the type to bounce back and is respected now over 6f, while Many A Star has been plying his trade in Dubai this winter and commands attention back on home soil.

SHOWTIME MAHOMES caught the eye when third at Wolverhampton when last seen in November so he could be the answer (can go well fresh). Tyke is expected to bounce back quickly returned to a track he goes well at, while the selection's stablemate Bicep is also worth considering.

The return to Southwell could reinvigorate TYKE who brings a strong C&D record into the race. Showtime Mahomes can chase him home.

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.
