There were 28 Races on Wednesday 17th September 2025 across 4 meetings. There was 7 races at Sandown, 7 races at Beverley, 7 races at Yarmouth, 7 races at Kelso, 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

This is competitive for the grade and several are notable. Twilight Madness is well handicapped based on his peak form. However, he hasn't won on turf since July 2021 and isn't without risk. Merrimack has much more recent winning form to his name and could have a say if he handles the forecast going. However, preference is for proven mudlark SUB THIRTEEN, who runs off 4lb below his last winning mark.

Fiorella Princess is respected but SUB THIRTEEN has slipped in the weights and has conditions to suit.
Class & Speed Card

Bravo Hotel hasn't been seen since May but he sets a fair standard with an official rating of 77, although the draw hasn't been kind to him and it might be best to look elsewhere with that in mind. QUANTUM POWER made a pleasing introduction at Southwell before taking a step forward to fill the runner-up spot at Ripon most recently. He has raced freely on both starts and this drop in trip could hold the key. Noelies Dream is another to consider.

The returning BRAVO HOTEL has leading claims if he can get back near his best and he's a half-brother to a soft-ground winner.
Class & Speed Card

Having looked close to his best when runner-up at Southwell two weeks ago, JESSE LUC could be poised to strike. The five-year-old makes plenty of appeal off an unchanged mark and he's fancied to repel Wild Clary. Richard Hannon's inmate appeared to find 7f stretched his stamina at Kempton a fortnight ago and shouldn't be underestimated. Kosometsuke also looks capable of better.

This looks trappy, with rain a possibility. The safe option may be DARK SIDE THUNDER who likes it here and has form on good to soft.
Class & Speed Card

ESNA, a daughter of top-class sprinter Starman and a half-sister to five winners, posted an encouraging second to a potentially useful prospect when she was introduced over C&D 18 days ago. Midnight Bandit and Shadowmere were less eye-catching on their respective debuts and need to improve. Therefore, Morshdi, a full-brother to Group 2 winner Nakheel, could be a bigger danger.

Brian Meehan's ESNA ran to a fair level on her debut here and she'll encounter similar conditions this afternoon.
Class & Speed Card

OPHELIA GRACE hit the woodwork over C&D on her debut and probably didn't need to improve too much at Southwell next time, where she came home best of all to record an emphatic success. The daughter of Starman must shoulder a penalty but is clearly comfortable at this venue and with any further improvement, she might prove tough to beat. The Jaber Abdullah-owned pair Tea Queen and Lady Youmzain must be given respect on their debuts.

Ophelia Grace sets a useful standard but the ground is a query and LADY YOUMZAIN could make a winning debut.
Class & Speed Card

ZIGHY has acquitted herself with credit in both outings to date and this could prove a suitable opportunity to shed her maiden tag. A reproduction of the Mehmas filly's latest third over C&D could prove sufficient. Lelosaja offered encouragement on her debut third at Southwell last month and she's feared most, although market support for newcomer Albaydaa would be interesting.

Zighy will likely be off the mark soon but a chance is taken that BINTOLA can build on her promising introduction.
Class & Speed Card

ACCREDIT is probably the safe play and this could be straightforward if he builds on his debut third posted over 7f here last month. A son of Dubawi out of a winning half-sister to Oaks and dual Arc winner Enable, his pedigree is out of the top drawer. Hatteen has a less auspicious profile but could beat Plan C for second.

It's difficult to get away from the regally bred ACCREDIT who made such a positive start to his career here last month.
Class & Speed Card

A chance can be taken on COTTON BUD, who attracted sustained market support at Goodwood on her racecourse bow last month. Inexperience ultimately took its toll as she finished well beaten, but the Cloth Of Stars filly should find this easier and progress looks a real possibility. Lady Hornblower must shoulder a penalty having been on target over C&D last time but although respected, Elizabetty might pose a greater threat in receipt of weight.

Caim is a newcomer of note but COTTON BUD should have learned plenty from her Goodwood debut and can take a big step forwards.
Class & Speed Card

Roger Varian has trained two of the last six winners of this race and it would be no surprise to see FAR FAR OUT add his name to the roll of honour. The son of Kingman is out of a mare who was Listed-placed over 1m4f and he could make a big impact on his debut. Pandemonium cost 375,000gns as a yearling so is sure to attract plenty of support. King Of Berkshire changed hands for 145,000 euros and has to enter the equation as well.

Some interesting newcomers on show and the market can provide clues. PANDEMONIUM is preferred to King Of Berkshire.
Class & Speed Card

Cicero's Gift hit the crossbar in Group 3 company at Deauville last month and arguably sets the standard on the back of that performance. However, preference is for the unexposed SALLAAL. Roger Varian's colt hand plenty in hand when scoring off a mark of 97 at Hamilton last time and that form suggests that he should be capable of making his mark at this level. Chantilly Lace was also placed in a Group 3 last time but this arguably tougher as she takes on colts/geldings.

Chantilly Lace has held her own in Group 1s so has to be feared but the Frankel colt SALLAAL (nap) retains significant potential.
Class & Speed Card

DUNKELD DREAMER relished the extra yardage when getting the better of reopposing second Mr Moonshine over 1m at Thirsk earlier this month and another bold bid is forecast. A 1lb rise in the ratings for Karl Burke's filly could prove lenient and, while the aforementioned Mr Moonshine merits respect, a bigger danger may emerge from Isambard Kingdom. The son of No Nay Never found only a progressive rival too strong on his follow-up bid at Chelmsford and he's still open to improvement.

An interesting race despite the small field. SINGARDA's York sixth in July marked him down as one to keep a close eye on in nurseries.
Class & Speed Card

JACKSON LAMB readily broke his maiden at Bellewstown three weeks ago and could again be hard to peg back despite his penalty. The Irish raider could face stiff competition from Magic Gloves, who beat a subsequent winner when he landed a point-to-point earlier this year. Her yard won this in 2023 and support in the betting would be noteworthy. A dual bumper winner, Jentobello also commands respect.

The chances are that JACKSON LAMB will follow up his Bellewstown success for last season's successful stable.
Class & Speed Card

Charlotte's Web had been knocking at the door for quite some time before landing the Galtress at York and the Crisford's filly can make her presence felt again, as can Beautiful Love, who returns from a short break having been held in a Group 3 at Haydock in May. However, they might have a task on their hands keeping LIFE IS BEAUTIFUL at bay. Far from disgraced in the Ribblesdale, the Night Of Thunder filly then went close in a Group 3 at Deauville last month but can go one better here.

3yos have a good record in this race, with Life Is Beautiful and ANNA SWAN making most appeal of that generation.
Class & Speed Card

Naga is bred to be much better than this opening mark of 70 but a safer option is NIMINY PIMINY, who went some way to atoning for a disappointing handicap debut when returning from a break to go close at Kempton. That form has been franked by horses behind her and Ollie Sangster's filly can go one better. Maeva has been walloped with a 13lb rise for an admittedly bloodless Chelmsford triumph, but still has to be respected.

There's a chance that connections have been waiting for soft ground with NAGA and the potential is there to be well handicapped.
Class & Speed Card

HASHTAGNOTIONS supplemented his Ayr victory with a decent third at Hamilton a fortnight ago and he can be rewarded for his recent consistency with another victory here. Elettaria struck at Newcastle before performing with credit at this venue, while First Encounter returns to a more suitable distance following a one-paced third at Ffos Las. Copper And Five and Back From Dubai are also considered.

Perhaps JIMMY HENRY can get off the mark, having shown this trip within range at Leicester last time.
Class & Speed Card

LUTTRELL LAD was a short-head second when upped in trip to an extended 2m5f at Newton Abbot 18 days ago and could go one better if the tongue-tie and visor combination draws more improvement at the second time of asking. Last-time Perth winner Here Comes Georgie is another key player off just 4lb higher. Divilabother was another ready winner most recently and can progress further.

There was plenty to like about the breakthrough win of Tristan Davidson's new recruit DIVILABOTHER at Hexham so he looks the way to go
Class & Speed Card

Whip Cracker struggled in the Royal Hunt Cup but he put that performance behind him when a narrow second at Goodwood next time. This isn't as competitive, so he can be expected to go well, but a chance can be taken on LOVE BEACH. Well beaten when sent off favourite on his handicap bow at Chester, conditions were too quick for the gelding that day reportedly. These conditions should be in his favour, though, and the unexposed three-year-old is fancied to find the necessary progress. Others to note include Mythical Guest and Green Triangle.

Plenty to consider but the vote goes to LOVE BEACH, who had an excuse on his handicap debut and is the least exposed in the field.
Class & Speed Card

Sir William defeated DANCING TIGER (second) at Windsor before coming up just short in his follow-up bid at Newbury. Although respected, the latter can exact his revenge. Roger Teal's gelding made amends for that earlier defeat when scoring at Goodwood latest and is now 3lb better off with that rival. Advancing might not be far away either and also makes the shortlist.

A few with chances but SIR WILLIAM has compiled a solid profile in handicaps and can confirm Windsor placings with Dancing Tiger.
Class & Speed Card

There could be more to come from HUNDRED CAPS. Julie Camacho's inmate is just a three-year-old and his recent C&D form is solid, including a determined success last time out. South Parade and Elegant Erin are both well drawn and must be taken seriously, especially the latter as she's a track-and-trip scorer. Of the others, keep an eye on Alligator Alley.

Elegant Erin has a fair chance of winning this for the third time in four years but preference is for stablemate TIRIAC.
Class & Speed Card

Having proven to be capable over both hurdles and fences, LET'S SAIL AWAY is an appealing option off bottom weight and may find the amalgamation of a tongue-tie and visor is the source of enough improvement for the versatile six-year-old to gain a first win in this discipline. Nickelforce, High Moon and Cracking Destiny are others to bear in mind.

Tom Lacey's LET'S SAIL AWAY can race off the same mark as when a very good recent second behind a next-time-out winner at Worcester.
Class & Speed Card

A switch to more aggressive tactics saw NORTH STAR make all at Leicester recently and a similar approach may see her follow up. George Boughey's filly scored with something in hand and she could make light work of a 6lb penalty. Salamanca City arrives on the back of a decent second in class 3 company at Haydock and she's feared most, ahead of the lightly-raced Miss Wong.

A few to consider but MISS WONG (nap) got off the mark last time and her pedigree suggests that was the start of something better.
Class & Speed Card

Having record an emphatic success at Epsom on her penultimate start, Huggable battled valiantly in defeat when second at Newmarket last time out. Raised a further 3lb in the handicap, Dylan Cunha's filly ought to remain competitive, but it is ITRAAQ who gets the vote. The daughter of Sea The Moon fetched 575,000gns as a yearling but has yet to make inroads into that hefty price tag. However, she's bred to be far better than her opening mark of 67 and, switched to handicaps with a hood now applied, she could progress. Oceans Charm is also noted.

This race looks tricky. A chance is taken that HOT TOPIC can improve under these conditions when her pedigree offers hope.
Class & Speed Card

Beverley regular Dr Rio retains plenty of enthusiasm and recorded his sixth win on the Westwood over 1m4f last month. The drop in trip isn't as much of a concern as the 4lb higher mark, while the handicapper isn't showing any leniency with the honest Sonic Pioneer either. The assessor may have had to take a bit of a guess with INTO COMBAT, who has shown only a modicum of ability in maiden/novice company but was a 500,000gns yearling. He sold for a lot less than that this summer, but Sir Mark Prescott has now had a couple of races to work him out and an initial figure of 67 is attractive.

Top of the list is DR RIO (nap), who has won here in two of his last four starts including a comfortable success over 1m4f last time.
Class & Speed Card

AMBASSADOR returned to winning ways over 2m1f at Cartmel last month and, given how weak this race appears to be, the eight-year-old can defy a 7lb rise and follow up. Heart Above's last couple of efforts suggest that he is likely to be in the mix, while O'Faolains Glory edges out Nathan Wells and Guillaume to be best of the rest.

Top of the list is AMBASSADOR (nap) who cashed in on a reduced mark with a dominant display under Joshua Thompson at Cartmel last month.
Class & Speed Card

Having displayed a willing attitude to open her account at Southwell last month, VINATERA looks capable of more. A 4lb rise for that success looks workable and she's fancied to double her tally. Addarella built on her sixth-placed reappearance at Wolverhampton when a close second at Lingfield recently and another good account is forecast. Ironist may fare best of the remainder.

Vinatera, Ironist and ADDARELLA may all have their best days ahead of them with the vote going to the latter on the drop to 6f.
Class & Speed Card

Game Beaaa's winning run came to an end last time but she should not be written off just yet. That said, preference is for HUIT REFLETS, who was only beaten a head into second over fences at Hexham three weeks ago and that form gives him a big chance. Milajess has proven to be a consistent performer this year and is another to make the shortlist.

An uncompetitive handicap and this looks a very good opportunity for Micky Hammond's reliable MILAJESS to bag a deserved second success
Class & Speed Card

Having regained the winning thread at Uttoxeter in July, Dog Fox merits consideration on his first attempt over fences. However, the combination of a 4lb higher mark and rise in class could leave him vulnerable. With that in mind, it could be worth chancing PRIMOZ, who faced some tall assignments in the spring after making all over C&D in February. Pay The Piper completes the shortlist.

The interesting horse is PRIMOZ for whom things didn't pan out too favourably in the big 2m handicaps at Cheltenham and Aintree.
Class & Speed Card

GIJIMA should have learned plenty from her opening third at Perth last month and any improvement could make her difficult to beat. The five-year-old travelled with plenty of verve and shades the vote over fellow unexposed rival Nobotheratall. Tristan Davidson's stable debutant hit the frame on his Rules bow at Wexford 75 days ago and isn't taken lightly. Dotties Promise is the pick of the remainder.

Gijima ran well at Perth but NOBOTHERATALL might not have to improve all that much on his third at Wexford.
