8:18 Southwell Tips

Back to form and needed every stride when taking a handicap at Kempton by a small margin on his latest mark. Should remain competitive off his updated rating.

Two of three career wins have been at this track and she finished third here in both of her last two outings. Likely to be there or thereabouts again.

Latin, I was surprised when i saw this horse was around the 5/1 mark. He won well in an Amateur race last time out, hitting the line well, and was really too good for his rivals. He drawn is well here at Southwell, and should prove too good again for these's rivals, with Ashley Lewis taking 5lbs off. Ew bet to nothing, for cover.

Phaedra has the makings of a progressive stayer and could be ready to strike now she has been given a step up in distance. That recent Wolverhampton fourth, beaten off a 4 lb lower mark, showed me she's still competitive, and Ghaiyyath fillies thrive at longer trips. Lewis Edmunds is a good booking, and the handicappers have given her a real chance at this level. She's consistent enough to go well if the race pans out her way.

Wood Whisper could be showing potential, having raced just fifteen days ago at Kempton. Jockey Thomas Greatrex is here for this ride and is waiting until the last race of the meeting. He could produce a rewarding run from his mount, making the visit worthwhile.

Runs off an offical rating of 62 but according to the ratings he is far ahead of that based on the conditions today. Has previously won off a much higher mark and a recent runner up effort proves the fire still burns, making him overpriced at 8/1 in a 9-runner field.
