There were 39 Races on Friday 12th September 2025 across 5 meetings. There was 8 races at Chester, 8 races at Doncaster, 7 races at Sandown, 8 races at Salisbury, 8 races at Ballinrobe, 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

Having filled the runner-up berth at Hamilton and Redcar on his most recent outings, compensation could be on the cards for WONDERFUL FRIEND. Ed Bethell's gelding ticks plenty of the right boxes and is narrowly preferred to fellow in-form rival Mossvale Diva. The daughter of Coulsty has the inside draw and isn't taken lightly. Going Commando may fare best of the remainder.

Consistent filly MOSSVALE DIVA has the speed to make full use of her advantageous draw here and could be difficult to catch.
Class & Speed Card

Shadow Dance appeared to find the ground on the quicker side when midfield in the Ebor on his latest start and conditions should be more favourable for last year's third. That said, the vote goes to DURAJI. Dermot Weld's colt was highly tried earlier in the year before finishing fourth in a Goodwood handicap and the switch to a more conventional track may yield improvement. Others to consider include Synergism and Arqoob.

Shadow Dance, Subsequent and Good Show are shortlisted but the top two options may be SYNERGISM and Beylerbeyi.
Class & Speed Card

Magic Boy arrives on the back of a close-up second over 1m at Musselburgh and the drop back in distance shouldn't prevent another bold bid. However, ZARATHOS has posted many creditable efforts in defeat in handicaps this season and he is slightly more appealing now reverting to novice company. Inns Of Fear hasn't been disgraced on the all-weather this year and could also make his presence felt.

Preference is for MAGIC BOY, who has the rail draw and, after only four runs, probably still has some potential.
Class & Speed Card

Do Or Do Not has been a model of consistency, with numerous placed efforts at Group 2 level, and the drop to Listed company after his third in the Gimcrack gives him every chance of shedding the maiden tag. However, he may be vulnerable to a less-exposed type and HANKELOW fits that bill. Karl Burke's colt made the perfect start at York in June, having cost 750,000gns at Tattersalls Book 1 last October, and the rise in grade shouldn't be too much of an issue judged on that performance. Catullus justified long odds-on without breaking sweat at Yarmouth and is respected along with Convivial winner Frescobaldi.

Do Or Do Not is well clear on ratings but produced a lesser display last time. HANKELOW and Northern Champion top the list.
Class & Speed Card

Having recently finished a close-up second on her second outing at Brighton, Green Dame is still open to improvement and she must enter calculations. However, SCHRODINGER'S CAT was narrowly denied on his latest start at Ripon and that form looks a shade stronger. Last month's Windsor runner-up Akirra is another heading in the right direction and could also be in the thick of the action.

The ground is an unknown for all the leading form contenders and AKIRRA can't be a confident selection, for all he is promising.
Class & Speed Card

Having landed an apprentice handicap at Haydock in easy fashion last week, GENTLE WARRIOR makes grand appeal racing off an unchanged mark. Karl Burke's gelding should take all the beating if coping with the quick turnaround and is likely to prove a warm order to follow up. Scarlet Moon secured a fourth victory of the season at Sandown and is feared most, ahead of the up-in-distance Minhad.

After taking his form to a whole new level at Haydock last week, GENTLE WARRIOR is taken to strike again off the same mark.
Class & Speed Card

A line can be put through LADY IMAN's Nunthorpe effort and she can take full advantage back against her own age group. Her success in the Molecomb arguably sets the standard and Ger Lyons' filly can get her career back on track. Mission Central was always doing enough when landing the Round Tower at the Curragh and the drop back from 6f is unlikely to be an issue. Windsor Castle winner Havana Hurricane must be considered closely, while Revival Power landed a Listed contest at York and heads the remainder.

Improving MISSION CENTRAL gets the vote ahead of compatriot Lady Iman. A few others are also firmly in the mix.
Class & Speed Card

LIPSINK showed a willing attitude to fend of all challengers over C&D a fortnight ago and a 4lb higher mark looks workable. That form has worked out reasonably well and Mick Appleby's veteran is turned out before a further 1lb rise takes effect. Sandscreendeliverd opened his account at Lingfield (turf) last month and is a feasible alternative to the selection, along with handicap debutant Trafalger.

Last year's winner Four Adaay comes here on the back of a recent win but GOOD EARTH looks too well treated to ignore.
Class & Speed Card

MAYDAY MALONE landed a higher-grade contest over C&D under today's apprentice back in June. A progressive son of Bated Breath, he may not have finished winning yet and is taken to defy a 3lb rise for last month's success at Doncaster. Zero Carbon has been freshened up and switched stables since a back-to-form Kempton second, while the veteran Documenting could also shape well back at this lower level.

C&D winner MAYDAY MALONE (nap) is still on the upgrade and, from stall 1, can make it three wins from his last four starts.
Class & Speed Card

SWEET WILLIAM beat Coltrane into fourth in last year's renewal and has danced every dance at the top level this season, running with credit in each of his four starts. The Gosdens' six-year-old arguably produced his best performance of the year when second to Trawlerman in the Lonsdale Cup at York and he can retain his crown. Sunway finished just half a length behind the selection when fourth in the Goodwood Cup so he has to be of interest. Hipop De Loire is the pick of the remainder.

Last year's characterful winner SWEET WILLIAM is not quite in the top bracket but there's no Kyprios, Scandinavia or Trawlerman in this.
Class & Speed Card

On Message shaped with plenty of promise when fourth on debut over 7f at Newmarket, but she may have her work cut out to repel reopposing second ENCHANTED QUEEN. Charlie Appleby's filly found only an exciting prospect too strong on that opening bid and the daughter of Ghaiyyath should relish the extra furlong. Sea The Storm is the pick of the newcomers and market support would be interesting.

Sea The Storm is a newcomer of note but ENCHANTED QUEEN can confirm the promise of her Newmarket debut.
Class & Speed Card

VIXEY struck over the extended 7f trip here in June and looked unfortunate not to finish closer when second back here last time. Stuck in traffic entering the home straight, the winner had already flown once she was in the clear and Simon West's charge is taken to go one better. Newbury scorer Lady Wingalong can feature back over this distance, while another good effort from Little Keilee looks assured.

Simon West's VIXEY has been in the best form of her career this season and looked unlucky not to complete a course double last time.
Class & Speed Card

A highly encouraging second in the Albany before scoring from a couple of subsequent winners at Leicester last time out, AWAKEN sets the standard on form and she can take this prestigious Group 3. Going back up in trip should suit Flowerhead following a creditable third in a Listed contest at Newbury over 5f, while Planet Seeker arrives on the back of a determined debut success at Goodwood for last year's winning connections. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Anthelia, Golden Palace and Spinning Lizzie.

A deep renewal of the Dick Poole but preference is for BELLA LYRA (nap) who ran so well in a good Group 3 at Ascot on King George day.
Class & Speed Card

Bosphorus Rose is a typical Sir Mark Prescott improver who has struck in three of her four handicap starts, most recently scoring by three lengths at Thirsk last week. She is sure to have her supporters, but CAPE FLORA gets the vote. The daughter of Kingman made every yard of the running to win by two and a half lengths at York's Ebor meeting and even a 9lb rise might underestimate that display. Perfect Your Craft is another to note.

Bosphorus Rose and a few others bring striking positives but it is hard to bypass CAPE FLORA (nap).
Class & Speed Card

SUSPENDED SENTENCE showed a willing attitude to repel a strong challenge from the runner-up at Ripon. He could prove better than his opening mark, given the second has won since, and a bold bid is anticipated from Michael Bell's colt. Champion Island faced a tougher test in a nursery over 7f at York, but his Goodwood third on heavy ground before that suggests this extra yardage will suit. Magnatura is worth a second look on his handicap bow.

Softening ground is the unknown but SUSPENDED SENTENCE looks the type to carry on progressing and he's preferred to Champion Island
Class & Speed Card

MARBUZET has placed in better company at York since finishing runner-up over C&D in June. Tim Easterby's charge can race off a similar mark and will be hard to keep out of the finish. Simiyann has a bit to find with the selection on running here, although he has subsequently won at Ffos Las and is not out of it. Chillhi returns to this code with a shout having tasted success over hurdles last week.

A very rare Flat runner for her stable, dual hurdle winner OUR LIL looks well worth a crack at a staying trip under this code.
Class & Speed Card

WACKESTONE has shown promise on the Flat and can make a winning start over hurdles. Third in a strong 1m2f maiden at Navan when last seen in April, the Australia gelding handles soft ground and has had time to mature over the summer. Those with jumping experience look vulnerable to a potentially smart newcomer and Gordon Elliott's runner fits the bill. Bridezilla acquitted herself well on her hurdling debut when second here last month and this slightly longer trip should suit her. Sopelana was a fair way behind Bridezilla on that occasion before finishing third at Killarney and has place claims again. Market support for Emmet Mullins' newcomer Circle Of Secrets would be significant.

Ballinrobe second Bridezilla rates a major player but WACKESTONE was superior on the Flat and gets the vote on hurdles debut
Class & Speed Card

This represents a significant drop in grade for EVANESCO, following a down-the-field effort in Group 3 company at Deauville, and he looks the one to beat on his penultimate second at Goodwood. Improvement can be expected over further from Hell Yeah He Did following a disappointing effort when fancied first time out at Kempton, while Boilermaker and Morven look to be the pick of the newcomers.

Although disappointing in France last time, EVANESCO is well worth another chance on the strength of his Goodwood form.
Class & Speed Card

CLASSIC CUVEE shaped with lots of promise when filling the runner-up spot on debut at Newmarket and is likely to take a big step forward from that experience. The booking of Oisin Murphy catches the eye and it would be no surprise to see her get off the mark. Lady Gormire was beaten 12 lengths into second on her introduction at Haydock, but may relish this extra furlong. Al Qaysiyya isn't ruled out either.

The rematch between Classic Cuvee and Al Qaysiyya could go either way. FRACTIONAL and Wid are very interesting newcomers.
Class & Speed Card

Recent Goodwood third Billyjoh could land a blow in this lower grade, while Crimson Spirit merits consideration on last month's second off this mark at Musselburgh. CROWN BOARD has been set a series of stiff tasks this season, but remains of interest on his creditable fourth in a Listed contest here at this time last year. A return to that level would make Jane Chapple-Hyam's unexposed five-year-old hard to beat.

Surrey Shadow is interesting but PHYSIQUE should relish the conditions and can provide his new trainer with her first winner.
Class & Speed Card

DAPPER VALLEY burst back into life on his second start for the James Owen yard and the four-year-old is fancied to follow up his taking success at Kempton under a 5lb penalty, which is offset by Ashley Lewis' 7lb claim. Wichahpi has been knocking on the door of late and she must enter calculations, along with Iconic Times and Emperor's Son.

Rejuvenated by a change of scenery and reapplied cheekpieces, DAPPER VALLEY should make light work of his 5lb penalty.
Class & Speed Card

Paul Townend travels west for just one ride and partners dual bumper winner KORINTHIA, who makes her first start over hurdles. The daughter of Jukebox Jury was last seen finishing fifth in a Listed race at Cheltenham in November. Too free on that occasion, she is now fitted with a hood and a decent round of jumping should make her hard to beat if she settles better in the headgear. Youre A Derry Girl is the highest rated of those with handicap marks and comes here after a solid second over a longer trip at Wexford. Boujee didn't get home when third over 2m6f here but, over this distance, she can turn around form with the runner-up Toor Moon.

This can go to KORINTHIA who looked like a nice prospect after winning her first two starts in bumpers last term and can kick-on now
Class & Speed Card

A tad unlucky in a valuable nursery handicap at York when short of room after the start, DUBLIN BAY still did well to run on for sixth and stepping up to 7f could prove ideal on this occasion. The booking of Billy Loughnane catches the eye and the son of New Bay may have too much for unexposed handicap debutant Calchas and French Affair, who wasn't beaten too far in his bid for the double at Ffos Las last month.

Calchas is feared but DUBLIN BAY did well to hold his own when raised in grade for a big-field nursery at York.
Class & Speed Card

ART LOVER has improved with every start to date and got off the mark when scoring with plenty in hand at Ffos Las. Any further progression could see William Haggas' colt double up, despite an opening mark of 87. Irish Fighter was found wanting in the Gimcrack but his previous form suggests that he can be competitive in a race of this nature, while the selection's stablemate Magic Stone is another going in the right direction. Others to note are Sword Maker, Peel Park and Sovereign Spell.

Judged on his very solid effort at Thirsk, KINNALARGY looks particularly interesting. Sword Maker is second pick.
Class & Speed Card

SUNLIT UPLANDS did well to score on her handicap bow at Haydock in May considering she was hampered at the start and checked when making headway. A 4lb rise seems more than fair and a wind operation may well be another source of improvement. Tropical Heat commands plenty of respect in her hat-trick bid, while Bint Mohaather and Dancing Colours are others capable of further progression.

Sunlit Uplands and TROPICAL HEAT (nap) appeal most and the latter, who is chasing a hat-trick, has match fitness on her side.
Class & Speed Card

HALLOWED TIME landed this contest last year off 1lb lower and he is taken to do so again following a narrow defeat at Wolverhampton when last seen. Mark Loughnane's charge is preferred to Monday's Lingfield second B Associates and Giant, who drops in trip after showing plenty of pace when scoring over 1m at Chelmsford. General Assembly and Winter Crown are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

Last year's winner Hallowed Time has a lengthy absence to overcome, so it could pay to stick with the Chelmsford scorer GIANT.
Class & Speed Card

LORD FFRENCH was a cosy winner of a maiden over an extended 2m4f at Sligo on just his second hurdles start and now steps into handicap company. His opening mark doesn't look that lenient, but he had some useful bumper form last year and might improve again for stepping up in trip. Mephisto has shot up the ratings after rattling up a hat-trick on good ground last month. Things will be harder for him now, but he's a course winner and has shown fair form on soft ground too. The locally-trained Tomas O Maille ran poorly last time, but had been in good form here prior to that. Mica Malpic is well treated compared to his chase mark but would prefer further.

In the form of his life MEPHISTO can complete a four-timer, at the expense of the potentially well-handicapped Mica Malpic
Class & Speed Card

CASTRILLO built on a promising debut when winning over 7f at Chepstow last month and it would be no surprise to see the son of Belardo follow up in this company. Blooming Legend arrives on the back of two wins in August and Charlie Clover's filly is likely to be in the mix once again, while Supreme Clarets and Steel Drum are others to consider.

A trappy seller, with little between four on BHA handicap marks. The tentative pick is the recent Lingfield scorer BLOOMING LEGEND.
Class & Speed Card

ROCK OPERA was unable to make an impression when last seen in the Great St Wilfrid, but he can be given another chance based on his narrow defeat in a valuable York handicap in July. Woodstock was touched off at Ripon last time and could prove to be the main threat to the selection, although Tyger Bay and City Captain should not be underestimated.

The vote goes to KNEBWORTH, ahead of Charlie Mason and City Captain. Several others are also in with a shout.
Class & Speed Card

BEACH POINT arrives in fine fettle having landed a brace of C&D handicaps and another 4lb rise for his latest success may not be enough to stop him in his current vein of form. Whatsgoingonmarvin drops in trip following a consistent season and has to enter the reckoning. Carnival Day, who was fourth behind the selection last time, and Distinction round out the shortlist.

A real headscratcher. FAST STEPS, who lurks on a lowly mark, is tentatively selected to come out on top with Tipsy Tiger next best.
Class & Speed Card

AD CAELUM won well when getting the better of Ladiam at this venue and might be able to follow up off a 7lb higher mark. The four-time hurdles winner is down in trip by half a mile, but is effective over a range of distances and won on soft ground last winter. Talented amateur Dara McGill, who rode her last time, takes the mount again. Dual Listed winner World Of Fortunes didn't take to fences at Tramore, but has to be of interest back over hurdles and is running in a handicap for the first time. The four-year-old Carried With Love ran well in a competitive contest at Killarney and is open to more improvement.

A chance is taken on FORTUNATE LIGHTING who got firmly back on track when stepped up in trip at Sligo last time and she's unexposed
Class & Speed Card

UNDER THE TWILIGHT has been narrowly denied on both starts since winning at Windsor in June and this appears to be an ideal opportunity for the seven-year-old to return to winning ways. Thunderous Love has progressed well this year and should not be written off, despite a defeat at Pontefract last time. The shortlist is completed by Monsieur Kodi, Thunder Blue and Wodao.

The mare UNDER THE TWILIGHT was never in an ideal position when finishing hot on the heels of Thunder Blue at Windsor.
Class & Speed Card

Four of Declan Queally's last six runners have hit the target and MOZZIES SISTER can be another winner for the Waterford handler here. The Arctic Cosmos mare stays well and was a smart novice hurdler last term when placed at Grade 1 level against geldings. Her Cork run after a summer break should have brought her on and the winning pointer can take this on her first chase start under Rules. Littlebiggie is rated 16lb lower than the selection over hurdles, but has run well on both chase starts and will enjoy this longer trip. Slotty Dotty won her only point-to-point before showing fair form over hurdles, but has been absent since March.

Littlebiggie has valuable chase experience but could be outclassed here by chasing debutante MOZZIES SISTER, a much better hurdler
Class & Speed Card

SILVER WRAITH has been running well in defeat of late and Emma Lavelle's filly was third over 6f at Epsom last time. Off a 1lb lower mark, she could play a leading role in a race of this nature. Francis Drake is likely to be a big danger if transferring his recent all-weather form to turf, while Be An Angel and Bonnita are the pick of the remainder.

George Boughey's FRANCIS DRAKE has so far saved his best form for the AW but it's not as though he's had many chances on turf.
Class & Speed Card

MY FRIEND THE WIND came home well to get up at Kilbeggan and could follow up. He has shown a real aptitude for Ballinrobe, with a victory and four places posted at the western venue, and is also well versed on slower ground. Ballagh Star was a close third behind him in Kilbeggan and is weighted to get his revenge, so ought to be thereabouts. The Little Yank will be giving his all in pursuit of an eighth career success and isn't out of it after a fourth over flights at Kilbeggan. The Gavin Cromwell pair of Sights Unseen and the up-in-trip My Good Pal are in the hunt for a payday.

After a first chase win last time, MY FRIEND THE WIND can follow up and he may have won that race by further without a late mistake
Class & Speed Card

This might prove to be a penalty kick for PALLADIUM. The four-year-old is rated 13lb superior than his nearest rival Fairy Glen and if in anything like the form of his fourth in the Hardwicke at Royal Ascot two starts ago, he will prove very tough to beat. Fairy Glen was well beaten in fourth in Listed company when last seen and she is the main threat, while Artistic Star looks best of the rest.

These weights strongly favour the newly gelded PALLADIUM who was fourth in the Group 2 Hardwicke on his penultimate start.
Class & Speed Card

ITSALONGLONGROAD took this race last year and has a shot at a repeat. He got back to winning ways on his latest start in Tramore and although he is viewed as something of a Tramore specialist, he was second in this race two years ago and enjoys a good record in Ballinrobe. After a never-nearer fourth at Wexford in July, Finnians Row returned to the same track to strike by a short head over a further trip last month. He rates a significant threat. The more rain the better for Drop The Anchor, while Howya Luveen and Metamorpheus, who both failed to complete on their latest outings, could get into the mix with clear rounds.

6yo METAMORPHEUS is worth supporting. He was still involved when coming down on chase debut and he's well backed prior to that run
Class & Speed Card

Berkshire Smudge appreciated the drop to this distance when scoring by a neck at Ffos Las last month and should remain competitive. However, a chance can be taken on RELOCAL, who hasn't shown a great deal in his three starts in maiden/novice company but has been gelded since. Roger Varian's charge is bred to be a lot better than a rating of 69 and gets the vote. Glint Of Light completes the shortlist.

Open. TYPEFACE has raised his game over 1m but this longer trip might not faze him and he gets a narrow verdict over Mapledurham.
Class & Speed Card

BLUE WATERS got off the mark on her second start in a fillies' bumper at this track and the form received an emphatic boost when the runner-up came out and crushed her rivals by 13 lengths in a mares' bumper at Galway on Monday. Newcomer Cast A Cold Eye is of obvious interest as a half-sister to Cheltenham and Punchestown Grade 1 winner Bambino Fever. The market should be informative about Willie Mullins' charge, who starts off with a tongue-strap and a hood. Governors Rock has moved to Mark Fahey after winning a Wexford bumper and is another to consider, while Ade Boy and Takiwatanga are other newcomers from yards that know how to win bumpers.

The victory of BLUE WATERS (nap) here last month was well franked by the runner-up at Galway on Monday and she can follow up

This is the 16:15 Kempton race from the video above backed at 28/1 earlier in the day.
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.
