There were 42 Races on Thursday 5th June 2025 across 6 meetings. There was 7 races at Uttoxeter, 7 races at Hamilton, 6 races at Lingfield, 8 races at Leopardstown, 8 races at Chelmsford City, 6 races at Ffos Las, 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

MISS GOLDFIRE bolted up in handicap company over track and trip last month and she has gone from strength to strength since December. Harry Fry's mare could have more to offer and can complete the hat-trick. Deep Purple finished last of four on his handicap debut at Warwick but sets the standard with an official rating of 119. El Galactico can beat Soldier At Arms home for third.

Deep Purple and El Galactico are definite dangers but MISS GOLDFIRE can win again under 7lb claimer Ciaran O'Shea.
Class & Speed Card

Despite taking a keen hold, BLUE NGURU shaped with lots of promise when a close third on her debut at Goodwood and she could take a step forward. Archie Watson's filly looks to have been found a nice opportunity to get off the mark. Midnight Tango wasn't disgraced in fourth on her first start at Newmarket last month and she has to be respected for the in-form Ed Walker yard. Any market confidence behind March Ahead would be interesting.

Midnight Tango is a player but the one who appeals most is BLUE NGURU, who shaped well at Goodwood on debut and should improve
Class & Speed Card

STAR LEGEND was on target at Chelmsford last month before following up at Catterick next time and, despite having more to do under a 5lb penalty, James Owen's in-form gelding is expected to complete the hat-trick. Gary and Josh Moore's pair Poncho and Donald Llewellyn look potential dangers. The former, who receives a welcome drop in class, could be the bigger threat of the two.

Preference is for STAR LEGEND, who completed a double at Catterick last week and may well be able to strike again under a penaty.
Class & Speed Card

ERNEST GRAY showed a big chunk of improvement when sporting first-time cheekpieces to score in good style at Worcester last month and the assessor may have been kind to only put him up 4lb. With a similar performance, he will prove tough to beat. Pounding Poet finished a close third in a stronger event at Ayr and is a previous C&D winner to take seriously. Party Business makes more appeal than Roger Pol.

Ernest Gray is 2-2 over hurdles on good ground but POUNDING POET is well handicapped and ran his best race for a while at Ayr.
Class & Speed Card

Betweenthesticks struck by just under a length at Catterick last time and holds an obvious chance, but the vote goes to ETERNAL SUNSHINE. Jim Goldie's mare failed to justify favouritism when a close third at Ayr last month, but she was arguably disadvantaged by the run of the race. With more pace on offer this time around, she could be the one to beat. Willingly is another to watch out for.

An open race can go the way of HURT YOU NEVER, who has a good chance at the weights and can reverse recent placings with Parisiac
Class & Speed Card

Although MIDNIGHT CITY hasn't been at his best on turf recently, a return to the all-weather could spark an improved performance. Richard Spencer's charge finds himself well handicapped from a mark of 68 and a couple of his best efforts came in the returning cheekpieces. Blewburton is 2lb better off with his Kempton conqueror Ballsgrove Boy and the pair are likely to be closely matched again. Dutch Finale, who disappointed having been well supported on his seasonal return at Nottingham, could also step forward.

Dutch Finale is still open to considerable progress but BALLSGROVE BOY (nap) won tidily last month and can defy a small rise.
Class & Speed Card

LADY JAGO accounted for her nearest rival by two lengths at Ludlow last month and she now takes a step back up in trip. The six-year-old is only 2lb higher and looks well placed to complete a double. Scarlet O'Tara has shown a good amount of ability over the smaller obstacles and is an interesting contender on her chasing debut. Of the remainder, Lost Connections makes the most appeal.

This can go to LADY JAGO, who made it 3-7 over fences when scoring at Ludlow and is open to more progress back up in trip.
Class & Speed Card

SPANISH HUSTLE finished a respectable third over 1m3f here on his latest outing. The seven-year-old remains feasibly treated off his current mark and could record a fifth course success. Two Auld Pals hit the frame in this class over C&D last time and is likely to be on the premises once again, while Ebony Maw isn't out of it either.

This has an open look to it and can go to last year's winner TWO AULD PALS (nap), who is reunited with Oisin Orr and ran well last time
Class & Speed Card

First-time cheekpieces will need to work the oracle for Lazzar, who had no obvious excuse when beaten at prohibitive odds at Brighton on Monday. He will be a player should they do the trick, but it is KEYBAAR that gets the nod. The son of Earthlight shaped with considerable promise on his racecourse bow at Kempton in April and progress looks highly likely. Musical Angel and Dannick are two others to note.

The vote goes to KEYBAAR, who made a promising start with his third at Kempton in April and should improve for that experience.
Class & Speed Card

Having returned to form with a good second over 2m at Bangor last month, LIPA K could be poised to strike. A 1lb rise in the ratings looks more than fair for the seven-year-old, and a return to 2m4f holds no fears. Ikigai Star is only 3lb higher than his recent triumph at Huntingdon and is feared most, ahead of Ghasham, who has champion jockey Sean Bowen in the plate.

This looks competitive but BALTRAY was moving with purpose when falling last time and he retains plenty of upside.
Class & Speed Card

TROPICAL ISLAND looked an improved filly when returning an impressive winner at Ripon on her reappearance. That victory was even more meritorious given she had to be switched for a clear run, and Richard Fahey's sprinter looks worth sticking with. Korker has yet to taste success over 6f, but his creditable third in a competitive handicap at York last time suggests another bold bid is likely, while Fahrenheit Seven could also prove competitive.

The recent rain will be to the advantage of ALEEZDANCER and he is well handicapped on his 2024 best.
Class & Speed Card

LAZIEELUNCH looked to be coming back to form on his second start since being gelded when third over two furlongs further at Chelmsford and, with two wins at a mile, one over C&D, he ticks plenty of boxes. Transparent pulled too hard at Goodwood before weakening late on. If Tom Marquand can get him to settle then he could mount a serious challenge, leaving handicap debutant Padua and Wolverhampton second Threatening to battle it out for the remaining podium spot.

Several have possibilities but Sir Mark Prescott's THREATNENING gets the vote ahead of Gallant and Invincible Duke.
Class & Speed Card

Salley Gardens finished his time with Olly Murphy by completing a double when scoring over C&D last month and warrants respect in his bid for a hat-trick. However, a further 5lb rise demands another career best from the son of Yeats, and it could be worth chancing chase-debutant GOLDEN AMBITION. Last month's spin over hurdles at Fontwell should have put the six-year-old spot-on and the reapplication of blinkers can only help. No But I Will is also noted.

Sean Bowen retains the partnership with SALLEY GARDENS despite him being sold out of Olly Murphy's yard. He's 3-5 over fences.
Class & Speed Card

Shine On Brendan wasn't beaten far when third in last year's renewal and he can feature again, while Bubbles Wonky gave notice of a big run when runner-up over course and distance last month. However, INDALO has the most scope for improvement. A dual winner on the all-weather, he could have untapped potential and Roger Varian boasts an impressive strike-rate at this venue.

This could go to PISANELLO, who has an excuse for his last run at Ripon and he's better judged on his reappearance at the same venue
Class & Speed Card

MINERVA has an excellent pedigree and cost 1,500,000gns as a yearling. By Frankel, her Group 2-winning dam is a sister to Group 1 winner Mohaather and with a half-sister having scored at juvenile Group 3 level, she should be smart. Thenandnow's yard has been totally out of form, although has shown some recent encouragement and this filly has a very notable pedigree. By Dubawi, her dam won the Group 1 Marcel Boussac. Little Sure Shot is out of a Group 3 winner who has already produced three nice winners.

Ryan Moore's choice earns preference for the 1.5m gns Frankel filly MINERVA. She faces an interesting opponent in Thenandnow
Class & Speed Card

MOUNT MOGAN boasts solid form at Lingfield, with four C&D wins and plenty of placed efforts. He may not be the force of old, but he has won twice this year and was a solid third here off his current mark in April. Tea Sea drops back in trip after weakening over an extended 1m at Wolverhampton and he's now just 1lb above his last winning mark. Ruth Carr sends Touchwood south from North Yorkshire, with the booking of Oisin Murphy eye-catching.

Mount Mogan looks solid to go well but TOUCHWOOD can improve for the return to this C&D and may be the answer.
Class & Speed Card

AUNTIE MAGGIE arrives in fine fettle after resuming winning ways at Stratford on Saturday. She makes a quick reappearance burdened with a 7lb penalty, but Alastair Ralph's charge can make light of that given the ease of her latest success. Milajess has plenty to find with the selection on her second at Fakenham in April, so Granny B may prove the bigger threat after finding only one too good over these hurdles last time.

The suggestion is MILAJESS (nap) who is 16lb better in with Auntie Maggie after chasing her home at Fakenham in April.
Class & Speed Card

Having posted creditable efforts in defeat at Ayr and Carlisle since scoring at Catterick in May, SIR GARFIELD could be ready to strike on this quick turnaround. The four-year-old is due to go up 3lb for his latest second and is the one to beat. Jump The Gun arrives in good heart and may serve the most resistance to the selection, although market support for stable-debutant Northfield Lake would be interesting.

It could be worth going with JUMP THE GUN, who has slipped to a good mark and shaped as though coming to hand last time
Class & Speed Card

LOVE BILLY BOY has recent form and has obvious claims. The UK-import had run three solid races this year and having met trouble in-running behind an easy Naas winner in March, he scored at that venue last time. He competes from the same rating, which is 1lb below his best juvenile mark and will appreciate the forecast rain showers. Fort Vega has also been running well and would also like easy ground, so should also compete dropping back in distance. Dark Viper gained a first success in March and is also noted.

LOVE BILLY BOY may be able to find a bit more now upped in trip after his Naas win, which has been franked since by the runner-up
Class & Speed Card

Veteran Count Otto is a standing dish here for local trainer Amanda Perrett, with a total of seven wins at the track, and he can go close off his current rating back on the Polytrack, while Bath second Maid In Chelsea is another for the shortlist in first-time cheekpieces. Both can get involved, but MESAAFI won a more valuable apprentice Handicap at Chelmsford on Sunday and gets in here without a penalty. He appeared to have a bit in hand that day and there is no obvious reason why he cannot follow up.

It is hard to get away from MESAAFI who won a competitive apprentice race at Chelmsford in fine style on Sunday.
Class & Speed Card

ECLIPSER showed ability when staying on strongly to finish fourth at Windsor on her introduction. She left it late to find top gear and should be a lot wiser. Athena's Fortune debuted in a warm race at Newmarket last month and could fare better at this level in a first-time hood, while Due Destiny's half-sister won as a two-year-old and the daughter of Due Diligence is a newcomer to note.

There's plenty in her pedigree to suggest ECLIPSER can transfer her good debut to AW. She sets a clear standard for the rest to aim at.
Class & Speed Card

SCINTILLANTE finally opened his account over hurdles when scoring in convincing fashion at Worcester recently. There could be more to come from the five-year-old now he's got his head in front, and a 4lb rise may not be enough to anchor him in this company. Russian Virtue is potentially well treated if bouncing back to form on his return to hurdling, while the unexposed Junior Des Bordes should be noted debuting for James Owen's in-form yard.

The choice is the well-handicapped CRYSTAL MER, who is taken to get off the mark after a break on his stable debut.
Class & Speed Card

The switch to more positive tactics saw Aighear recently finish second over 2m1f at Carlisle and she warrants respect off an unchanged mark. However, reverting to 1m4f may leave the daughter of Farhh vulnerable to a rival with more speed and ARCH LEGEND tops the bill. Ruth Carr's four-year-old arrives on the back of a runner-up effort at Beverley and a reproduction of that performance may prove sufficient. Crystal Guard is also noted.

This low-grade handicap can go to CRYSTAL GUARD, who has run creditably on his last two starts and has a decent record here.
Class & Speed Card

ACAPULCO BAY steps up to this distance for the first time, which should bring about improvement. He chased home the Derby fancy Delacroix on debut and while beaten twice already this year, he bumped into a high-class type in March and shaped as though he would improve for this extra distance here last month. Stablemate Rock Of Cashel finished ahead of him last time but is now blinkered and could struggle to confirm placings. What's Your Game is noted too.

An interesting renewal with a tentative vote to ZAHRANN, who impressed at Cork and should relish this trip
Class & Speed Card

NIFTY overcame a tardy start to finish third over the minimum trip at Salisbury on debut. Doing all her best work in the closing stages, Richard Hughes' filly is taken to launch a serious challenge over this extra furlong. Flying Macs is another likely to appreciate the extra yardage on the back of her debut effort at Wolverhampton, while Who Is Alice is related to a winning sprinter and is worth a second glance.

After a good debut third on turf (5f) NIFTY is selected to go in at the second time of asking on this first go on AW and step up to 6f.
Class & Speed Card

GREEN IMPACT was a high-class juvenile last year and can progress following his mid-field finish in the 2000 Guineas. By that stallion Wootton Bassett, he defeated Derby fancy Delacroix to win a Group 2 last September and while his Newmarket run was slightly disappointing, his yard was having a poor spell at that time and has shown more encouraging signs recently. Currawood has a bit to find with the selection on maiden form last June but should give him a race. Bravais had 560 days off prior to his March return and, having won at Tipperary latest, he can compete.

Jessica Harrington's GREEN IMPACT, sixth in the 2,000 Guineas, is a notable runner in this grade and gets a confident vote
Class & Speed Card

Smokey Malone prevailed by a head in a similar contest here in April and another good effort looks likely. However, SULLIVAN BAY looks to have the stronger form on the evidence of his third in a higher grade over course and distance back in January. He's been eased in the weights subsequently and Jim Crowley's presence is another positive. Zooks is usually in the mix at this level and could also feature.

Most of these have something to recommend them but MISS APPLEJACK retains a bit of upside and this longer trip can eke out more.
Class & Speed Card

Having faced some tall assignments over hurdles when under the tutelage of Joseph O'Brien in Ireland, REINA DEL MAR should find these calmer waters much more to her liking. A reproduction of her latest fifth in a 15-runner affair at Leopardstown could prove good enough on her stable debut for Tim Vaughan. The biggest threat may emerge from Do It Like A Dude, who offered something to work with on his third-placed Rules bow at Fontwell last month. Sure To Please looks best of the remaining trio.

Ex-Irish mare REINA DEL MAR is quite tricky to weigh up before this stable debut but she ought to be hard to beat in this modest race.
Class & Speed Card

ITS ALL PEACHY has performed consistently well in three runs this year and should be competitive reverting to handicap company. She finished seventh on her only previous handicap run at Naas in April (Wizard Of Odds finished 11th) but that wasn't a bad effort as she was ridden from off the pace and that form is working out well. Sound Of Lightning disappointed in April but, either side of that run, she had shown good form and should go well on her handicap debut. Recent maiden winner Pierre Royal also debuts in handicaps but has top-weight.

Having settled better to win a Naas fillies' maiden recently, SOUND OF LIGHTNING (nap) can back that up here on handicap debut
Class & Speed Card

An open contest in which only a tentative vote can go to the Marco Botti-trained YUVRAAJ. A 5lb rise for a narrow victory at Kempton would appear harsh but he's open to further improvement, especially now stepped up to 1m2f. The addition of first-time cheekpieces could eke out more from Riyadh Gem, who should appreciate a return to the all-weather. Others to note include The Hrse Horse and Aqab.

Bottomweight THE HRSE HORSE did very well to go close on his recent handicap debut at Windsor and gets the nod here.
Class & Speed Card

Having justified favouritism at Newton Abbot in April, Puddlesinthepark warrants respect in his follow-up bid. However, a 9lb hike from the assessor demands more from the seven-year-old and he may be worth taking on with stablemate TO BE SURE. The son of Sulamani found only a subsequent winner too strong at Fakenham 45 days ago and an unchanged mark might prove lenient. Mistymal and Unspeakable are others of interest.

Preference is for UNSPEAKABLE, who backed up his Taunton win with a decent effort in a stronger race than this.
Class & Speed Card

THE REAL SCREAMER was one of the easiest winners of the year when landing a weak optional claimer at Tipperary recently and might overcome his wide draw in stall 18. He was a rare odds-on winner of a Dundalk winter series handicap last December and while beaten in three turf runs earlier this year, his Tipperary effort was quite taking. Ground and trip versatile, Alpha Capture hasn't run since showing form at last year's Galway Festival but could be ready on reappearance. Zipster has shown useful recent form and can again compete.

Absent since last year's Galway festival, a chance is taken on the fitness of ALPHA CAPTURE but he remains nicely handicapped
Class & Speed Card

Cape Flora will find this easier than her recent Ascot assignment and the daughter of Kingman merits respect, as does newcomer Sea The Wonder, who fetched 310,000gns as a yearling. Charlie Johnston landed the corresponding event 12 months ago so Jeanne Baret can't be overlooked, but the vote goes to TREASURED ANGEL. Fourth in a warm Newmarket maiden on her debut, she could take a step forward now upped in distance.

The vote goes to DANZA PARIGINA who caught the eye when a staying-on fifth on her debut over 1m here a fortnight ago.
Class & Speed Card

Gavin likely found his follow-up bid at Sedgefield 23 days ago coming too soon and he must enter calculations reverting to the scene of his latest victory. However, it could be worth taking a chance on handicap debutant LINDEN LANE, who posted his best effort to date when runner-up at Newton Abbot last month. An opening mark of 103 looks workable for the five-year-old and a breakthrough victory could be on the horizon. Irish raider Queenie St Clair is also noted.

It can pay to give another chance to GAVIN, who had an excuses last time and was a very convincing C&D winner two starts ago.
Class & Speed Card

In-form EASTERN WIND often front runs so is greatly helped by having the inside draw. A six-time winner, she performed well when finishing fifth in a big-field handicap here in March and scored subsequently both at Bellewstown and over hurdles at Tipperary. She is suited by this distance and is also ground-versatile. Killeaney Bear also performed well over hurdles at Cork last month and having shown good Flat form just eight days later, he should again compete. Colin Keane picks Molto Amichi in favour of Pier Pressure, which is notable.

The extra furlong here should make all the difference for KILLEANEY BEAR, runner-up over 1m at Naas last month.
Class & Speed Card

A confident vote goes to CLOCKMAKER, who made a triumphant return when defeating a subsequent winner at Doncaster last month. David Simcock's charge is only 2lb higher back on the all-weather and with improvement likely, he looks set to double his tally. That being said, Kingdom Of Stars is 2lb well-in having struck the woodwork at Kempton latest and he ought to go well, along with Dancingwithmyself.

The vote goes to DANCINGWITHMYSELF who shaped as though worth another go over a longer trip when beaten a neck at Kempton last month.
Class & Speed Card

Getuptheyard has to make the shortlist after being caught close home to go under by a head at Uttoxeter, especially as he's due to go up 3lb in the near future. FERRET JEETER showed improved form with a tongue-tie to win by 10 lengths at Fontwell two starts ago and was a short-priced favourite when falling at the second hurdle at the same track last time. He could prove tough to beat with a clear round of jumping, while C&D second Jack's Jury and the long absent Talk Of The Moon are others to consider.

With improvement likely over this longer trip, the lightly raced FERRET JEETER could well add to last month's handicap debut win.
Class & Speed Card

GREAT MOVER has a poor draw in stall 19 to overcome but will be suited by stepping back up in distance. Twice placed over a mile as a juvenile, she finished well when meeting some late interference over seven furlongs at Fairyhouse last week and looks well capable of scoring off her current rating. Wertpol had both Amplitude (fourth) and Faoladh (sixth) behind him when showing improved form at Ballinrobe recently and should also get involved. Moonhall Lass wasn't beaten far at Roscommon latest.

In a wide-open contest, TAM LIN may benefit sufficiently from a low draw to add to a Bellewstown win gained over this trip in April
Class & Speed Card

STELLA HOGAN is the obvious option as one of only two C&D winners in the field, and she won last time out at Kempton. With Mason Paetel able to claim 7lb, a fifth career success could be on the cards. Moostar is upped in trip and is of some interest, but Wolverhampton second Ornately looks the bigger danger off just 1lb higher.

Preference is for STELLA HOGAN who is 2lb well in having avoided a penalty for last week's Kempton success.
Class & Speed Card

YOU SAY NOTHING ended last season with wins over this trip at Lingfield and Leicester and, boasting a C&D victory off 13lb higher in May 2023, he is fancied to make all to come home in front again. Pittsburg was beaten a length and a half off his current rating at Market Rasen in April and is entitled to get into the mix, while Lady Gwen may improve for her comeback third at Stratford.

The vote goes to YOU SAY NOTHING who bids for a hat-trick and remains well treated. Pittsburgh looks the main danger.
Class & Speed Card

Adelaide Bay has won two of his three starts this season including an easy C&D victory in April, and he can go close despite an added 3lb from the handicapper. CITY CAPTAIN won despite being left with plenty to do on his first start of the season at Pontefract and, if he takes another step forward, a 2lb rise looks unlikely to stop him. Kodi Banphrionsa could do better on her handicap debut.

Adelaide Bay is respected but CITY CAPTAIN (nap) kept a lowly mark somewhat under wraps with a narrow win for his new yard last time
Class & Speed Card

Land Afar has his first start for Daniel Bourne here and, if he can be brought back to the level of his Huntingdon second in January, a mark of 117 gives him every chance. Mohawk Chief remains a maiden over hurdles, but he was only beaten half a length at Market Rasen last time and is interesting on his handicap debut. However, TWIST OF FATECATCH gets the vote. He stayed on well for third on his handicap bow at Worcester and any improvement could see him land the spoils in what looks a slightly easier race.

Mohawk Chief has more to come but TWIST OF FATECATCH (nap) ran well on his handicap debut and looks the one to beat.

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.
