@5.00

Win

200

Drops in class here and back up to what looks like the best trip. Should go well and has strong claims on paper of another course and distance win. Mulrennan back in the saddle adds to the chance.

Dwindling Funds

Has won two from the last three, including over this course and distance, and should again go well back here. The front-running style should benefit from the drop back to a mile today.

Shiplake

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@5.00

Lose

-50

The ground looked too soft when only seventh on the latest start and should go much better now back on fast going here. Has some good form for this class to win a race of this level, especially the close second at Epsom in June. Races up front, and that can work well over this 6f track.

Earl Of Rochester

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@1.80

Lose

-50

This 4-year-old is lightly raced and open to further progress now upped to 10f. It is bred for further and rated 88, could prove hard to beat. The trainer has a very good win rate at this track with top-rated runners, and this could be another.

@2.62

Lose

-50

Running consistently well this season and unlucky not to get a win in recent starts. Is kept on a mark of 60 again and over this 10f track, looks a big player to get head in front.

Arclight

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@3.00

Lose

-50

Seemed to come back to form lately when winning over 17f in a chase at this track 29 days ago and could follow it up with another win brought back to Stratford again. Goes up 2f but has won at 18f and 20f, so should work out well. Up in weight from that win but clear chance.

Dan Tucker

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.75

Lose

-50

Dan Tucker has run well this season, winning a maiden race and then going close twice after. He won over this course and distance last month. Ran at Goodwood in a higher grade on last start on heavy and was beaten just over three lengths. That form is better than it looks, and back at this track on good ground, he looks sure to go well with every chance of another win.
15:42 3:42 Pontefract

No Alibi

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@3.25

Lose

-50

The least exposed in the race and could improve further on form so far. All three starts in Ireland have won the last two races and are sent over by a trainer that has had a great season and is still firing in the winners. Can take this step up in class to win again.
14:42 2:42 Pontefract

Delinquent

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@2.25

Lose

-50

Four unraced 2-year-olds. Can't rule out any of them, but preference is for Delinquent, who is reportedly forward and ready to go well first time up. Is bred for the conditions, and trainer Karl Burke is getting the winners.
16 August 2025
16:15 4:15 Doncaster

Topwarrior

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.75

Lose

-50

Topwarrior can still improve as a 3-year-old going forward. Trainer Ralph Beckett has his stable in hot form at present, so he could have another one here. He has been gelded since his last start when he struggled over 6f at York. He should go better dropped back to 5f in an easier race. The stable is 16% with first-time gelded runners and 41% when sent off as the favorite.
15:15 3:15 Newmarket

Awaafi

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@3.00

Lose

-50

Looks like another race between the top two in the betting, and slight preference goes to Awaafi, who went close on handicap debut in a better race over 6f at this track 14 days ago. Will go well in the conditions, and stepping up to 7f is expected to suit well. Half Sovereign has won two novice stakes races well and is the big danger making handicap debut.
15:07 3:07 Doncaster

Riot

Daily Racing

25 EW

@6.00

Lose

-50

Best form on galloping tracks and has two wins here. Has run well in other races here too. On old form, would be hard to beat and the drop in class can help chance. Last win came at this track last summer off a 10lb higher mark. Latest run excused at Chepstow that didn't suit, so will take to bounce back now.
14:25 2:25 Newbury

Getreadytorumble

Daily Racing

25 EW

@5.50

Lose

-3

Open betting with value on offer, and the 3-year-old Getreadytorumble could come out on top, running consistently well in races up to now. Has had excuses in defeat the last two times after winning with plenty in hand at Goodwood in June. Fast ground suits best and gets it here.
14:05 2:05 Newmarket

Addison Grey

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@4.50

Win

175

Looks likely a two-horse race with Addison Grey looking the better handicapped of them. Is proven on fast ground, and this is a drop in grade from running a good third in a class 3 latest. Big threat is Binhareer, who won well latest but has to prove it on this going.

@3.75

Win

137

Goes well at this track with a course and distance win in May and a close third here latest, both over 10f. Steps up to 12f now and could suit as has been staying on well late in races, especially the latest run. Buick is an eye-catching jockey booking today for a stable with a good record with strongly fancied runners at this track.
15:25 3:25 Yarmouth

Match Play

Daily Racing

50 WINNB

@4.50

Lose

-50

Hard to rule out any here, but preference goes to Match Play, who drops back in class after being down the field at York latest. Has won over this course and distance, and the stable remains in good form. D Muscott is a plus at this track and rides for the first time.
14:05 2:05 Epsom Downs

Jowalla

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@4.50

Lose

-50

Jowalla has shown a fair level of form in three starts so far and goes into the first handicap on what looks a fair mark. Stable in form and could have placed this 2-y-o well here. Cheekpieces tried now could aid chance.

Gold Penny

Daily Racing

25 EW

@9.00

Win

15

Pearla may prove hard to beat, having the best form of these. But an each-way play is given to Gold Penny, who, after the first start on turf, is now switched to the all-weather, and that is noted from this stable. This Godolphin-owned 3-y-o has scope for improvement.

-50

Good third on debut and was then highly tried at Royal Ascot, finishing down the field. Will find this big drop back in class easier and could be good enough with any progress coming to win this maiden. Trainer has a strong record at this track, especially this time of year.
16:30 4:30 Salisbury

Azaniya

@4.33

Lose

-50

Progressive 3-year-old filly who goes for the hat-trick with clear claims if more to come. Won when upped to 10f from a mile latest and is kept at the distance here. Revoir sets the standard on form at this class 1 level and is the main rival to beat here.
16:15 4:15 Beverley

Triggerman

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@4.00

Lose

-50

Steady progress from this 4-year-old who just missed out on the win latest over this course and distance. Has strong claims up just 1 lb. Is 8 lb better off with Bell Shot on previous form, who looks the main threat here.

Noble Horizon

Daily Racing

50 WINNAP

@3.00

Lose

-50

Trainer William Haggas has a high win rate with runners sent up to this track and looks to have a strong chance of another win here with this improving 3-year-old who makes a handicap debut after a good win 26 days ago. May not have beaten much but should have more to come now.

@5.50

Win

225

Found a Class 2 race at Ascot too much on latest start and should do much better now back into a Class 4 level race, having two wins in this grade. Gets a weight allowance as a 3-y-o, and Tudhope riding is a big plus.
14:45 2:45 Kempton

Smoker Bellamy

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@4.50

Lose

-50

Tricky nursery with most unexposed. For me, Smoker Bellamy could improve the most starting out on what looks a lenient mark of 52. Cheekpieces also applied to aid chance. Drops from class 4 to class 6 here.

-50

Gets quickly turned out after running over 6f at this track just two days ago and is interesting now put up to 7f. Was running on late into fourth place, suggesting this step up in trip will suit. Has won twice at today's distance, albeit at Dundalk.

Ring Of Gold

-50

Yet to win on turf, but has run well in recent starts on grass. Comes into this race off a good second-place finish at Beverley in June. Has three wins, all on the all-weather, but looks capable of winning on turf at this low level.

Won at this track on debut but hasn't gone on since. However, it did show more on the last start, so it could be coming into some form now. Still can improve and races against lower-rated horses today.

Mollie Foster

@6.00

-50

Just the one win from this filly, and that was at this track. Back here after running third in a class 3, she looks to have good claims. Race conditions will suit, and the trainer has a strong record at this venue.

Aparajeo

-50

Won well on debut on fast ground and has had excuses in three starts since. This is a drop in grade and gets favoured fast conditions. Trainer noted for good record with 3-y-o's at this track. Can outrun the odds.
16:45 4:45 Haydock

Authentic Charm

@7.50

Lose

-50

2-year-old maiden race where a couple have run but have shown poor form. So, I will opt for Authentic Charm to go well on debut for trainer Clive Cox, who does well with juveniles at this track. Won't need to be anything special to win.

Improvement will be needed from this 3-year-old to win this race, but being unexposed and open to progress after just three starts. Trainer places horses well in turf races at this track (10-22, +14pts).
16:45 4:45 Haydock

Tropical Heat

@2.20

The trainer targets 3-year-old races at this track, and this looks like a strong chance for another win for the yard here with this improving filly. Won well latest despite getting blocked in running. Could still be ahead of the handicap.

@3.25

Win

112

The only 3-year-old in the race and the least exposed looks on a good mark on form shown so far in four starts. So, it looks to have a strong chance here. Won on first two starts, including at this track, and fast ground suits well. Drops in class after a try on the all-weather latest.
15:35 3:35 Haydock

Komodo Island

3-year-old colt who has potential to do much better on his fifth start and is well-bred for today's race conditions. Finished down the field on handicap debut latest, drops 3lb in the weights, and gets faster ground now.

Never Let Go

@3.50

-50

Beat a big field in a Class 2 at Royal Ascot on latest start and could improve again to win this Class 1 Listed Stakes. Stable does well at this track with improving 3-year-olds, and although it has two other runners in this race, this looks the clear choice of them.

Won on fifth start latest over this track and trip 22 days ago with a bit in hand and can push on now out of maiden company. Put in strong late pace figures and a repeat will be hard to beat.

Won last year over this dirt mile and back on dirt latest. Ran a good third where the form has been boosted since. Just three rivals here. Looks an ideal chance to get a second win now, being well clear on the ratings.

Has won the last two, and this 3-year-old could still improve to land the hat-trick. Unexposed against an older group, who mostly look out of form. A mile on turf suits well.

Five runners line up here, and this 3-year-old is the only unraced in this field but has reportedly been going well in training and is ready for a bold show on debut. Well-bred for this test, and Irad Ortiz riding is noted.

This 3-y-o colt has been showing up well in workouts at this track and looks ready to run a big one first time out. Cost 97k and is expected to do well over a fast mile on dirt as the breeding suggests. May lack experience but worth a try here.

Trainer Kenneth McPeek has sent out seven winners from the last 20 runners. He has been placing horses well and could have done so again here with this 3-year-old filly, who could go well on debut. Bred for a mile, so she should be going on well late over this 7f trip.

-50

Won on only run at this track and has won over 9f at Meydan. So this step up to 10f now back at this track could see this 4-year-old bounce back to form after a recent run down the field at Royal Ascot in June. That followed a good close fourth in the Lincoln in March, so may have needed the run anyway. Should find this grade easier too.

Typical Mark Prescott 3-y-o improving during the summer, going up in distance, and this 2-time winner could improve again now put up to 2 miles. Ran fourth latest on soft ground over 14f in a class 4 race. This drop in grade and on a firmer surface can win again for me.

@2.38

Lose

-50

A couple of first-time-out 3-y-o's in this race look interesting, but I will go for Jewelry, who has previous racecourse experience, having two starts last season as a 2-y-o. Good win on debut, but ran below expectations in a Group 3 race after getting well beaten. Fitness taken on trust after nearly a year off, but back in class and up to 7f now looks to have strong claims.

New York Minute

Daily Racing

50 WIN

@2.38

Lose

-50

Trainer Ralph Beckett is sending out plenty of winners at present and sends this 3-year-old up to Pontefract, the sole long traveler for the yard, and that pays well for this stable. Just four starts so far, got upped to 12f on the latest start from racing at a mile and kept on well at Goodwood, beaten just 2 lengths. Is bred for further, so this step up to 17f should see further progress and a clear chance if stamina holds.

@2.50

-50

Despite only finishing in ninth place on the latest start, that run can be excused for being hampered in running and given no chance. Previously, it won well, and this track suits, having won here three times. Another plus in this amateur race is jockey Serena Brotherton, who last won on this 9-year-old in June and has a 75% win rate for this stable.

3-year-old filly, who looks a likely type for the stable, makes debut in a weak-looking race and could go well judged on the breeding. Top course jockey is booked to ride, suggesting a bold run coming. Good draw in stall 1 is a plus around this sprint track.

This 3-y-o filly could prove to be too classy for these here despite top weight and an opening mark of 85 in her first handicap. She has won two from three starts and won with plenty in hand latest in a Class 4 novice at Newmarket. Races against a group of exposed rivals.
