Kodi Red
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@12.00
Lose
-50
Kodi Red is in stall 6 for Darryll Holland with Hector Crouch taking the ride. He has 40 career runs with 5 wins and 2 places, giving a 12% win rate and 18% place rate. He is now on a mark of 53, which looks workable, and he has winning form at this distance, in this class, and on similar going. Last time at Yarmouth, he was well supported in the market but went too hard early and faded. So, more restraint should see him finish better. With a significant booking in Crouch, a fair draw, and a good mark, this gives him a chance if the pace is measured well today.
19:15 7:15 Ayr
Mythical Phoenix
Daily Racing
Mythical Phoenix is in stall 4 for Julie Camacho with Kevin Stott on board and comes here with 18 runs, no wins but 8 places, which gives a 44% place rate. He is on a mark of 84, which looks a bit tough given his strike rate, but he has shown consistency at this level with several near misses over 6f. So, willing to try again here. He made too much use of himself when rushed up after a slow start at Thirsk last time and is better when settling early before finishing strongly. With course and distance placed form, a fair draw, and a strong pace to aim at, he looks like a solid win player if kept calm early on.
18:15 6:15 Ayr
We Still Believe
Daily Racing
We Still Believe is in stall 6 for David Bourke with Jason Hart taking the ride and has been a reliable type with 62 career runs, 6 wins, and 13 places, giving a 10% win rate and 30% place rate. He runs off 60, which looks a workable mark considering his course and distance win and his overall profile at 8 to 10f. He did not fire when beaten 6 lengths here last time but usually keeps himself involved and can be competitive if settling. Tactically, he is best held up before being delivered late, and with a fair draw and a good pace to run at, he could outrun his odds if things fall right today.

Reputation is in stall 8 for Ruth Carr with James Sullivan in the saddle and brings a wealth of experience with 74 runs, 5 wins, and 21 places, giving a 7% win rate and 35% place rate. He races off 56, which is fair given his consistency, and he ran right up to form when beaten just 2 lengths at Southwell last time. Proven over 7 furlongs and adaptable to most ground conditions, he has also shown me that he handles Pontefract's stiff track. Tactically, he is likely to be held up and produced late, which suits a race with a good pace on, so he has every chance here.
15:15 3:15 Catterick
Profiteer
Daily Racing
profiteer is in stall 7 and represents Tim Easterby with David Allan up, and a strong course partnership. He has run 33 times with 1 win and 13 places giving him a 3% win rate and 42% place rate, and comes here off 63 which looks a tad on the high side but workable if things drop right. He was beaten favourite last time when slowly away over 5f at Pontefract and that trip was a shade sharp, so back at 6f on this track he looks more at home here. Proven on a range of going and with solid course form, he is likely to be dropped in early before staying on strongly late

Moghitha
Daily Racing

@19.00
Lose
-50
Moghitha is in stall 1, which is a handy draw if she breaks well, and Connor Planas claims a useful 3lb for Daniel Loughnane. She has run 4 times with no wins but 2 places, giving her a 50% place rate. She comes here off a mark of 61, which looks fair if she can recapture her best 5f form. Last time at Musselburgh over 7f, she did not see it out, but the drop back should suit, especially as she has shown speed on quicker ground. Bred to stay further, she may be ridden patiently before finishing late. While a win is a stretch, she has an each-way squeak if the race sets up with a good pace here
14:15 2:15 Catterick
Purple Gown
Daily Racing
Purple Gown made a good return from hurdling when third at Pontefract over 10f, only a length and a quarter behind off this same mark of 64. She has placed at this course and distance before and is effective between 10f and 14f, handling most ground types. The cheekpieces seem to help keep her focused and she should strip fitter for that comeback run. With Mr E Cagney taking the ride for Antony Nicol, she looks well treated if building on that latest effort

Lady Wingalong
Daily Racing
Lady Wingalong is in stall 7 and comes here having scored by a neck at Newbury over 7f off 72 last time. She now runs from a mark of 75, which looks workable given her progressive profile. She has a good record at this trip with 2 wins and a place from 6 runs and has also shown she can handle this type of going. Billy Loughnane takes over in the saddle, which is a positive booking. Possibilities here.

@9.00
Lose
-50
Baltinglass Hill runs off a mark of 79, which is fair but leaves little room for error here. He is equipped with blinkers again, so giving him another shot today. He has 2 wins at this trip in the past and does have the experience edge with plenty of runs under his belt. If he can travel more sweetly early, he could outrun recent figures and land the shock.
16:52 4:52 Southwell
Divot
Daily Racing
Divot is in stall 5 and ran a solid race last time, just beaten a neck over 11f here. Rated 82, he is steadily progressive and looks to be very suited by this course and similar going. Saffie Osborne partners him for William Knight, and the middle draw should allow him to track the pace nicely. With the experience now under his belt and a clear run, he has a great chance and could be involved in the finish if allowed to settle and finish off strongly.
16:00 4:00 Deauville
Mia Julia

@6.00
Lose
-50
Mia Julia is in stall 8 with Maxime Guyon riding for T Speicher and comes here after a career-best win in a 2000m claimer at ParisLongchamp 45 days ago. That showed me that she is progressing nicely and she already has proven ability at this trip. This is a much tougher task stepping into Group 1 company, but she is clearly in good form. If she can settle well early and get cover from her draw, she could run above expectations, making her a win player, with the pace looking solid.
16:00 4:00 Tramore
Costanuci
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@11.00
Lose
-50
Costanuci ran below her best when fourth at Wexford over 2m last time. She did too much too soon and should be much happier stepping back up in trip here. Rated 124, she has winning form at this track and has placed over course and distance, so conditions look fine for her. Bryan Hayes keeps the ride for John Queally, and her record on similar going is solid with two wins and five places. If ridden with more patience, she has definite claims and could stay on strongly in a race that should suit her stamina today.
15:42 3:42 Pontefract
Rhyme Dust
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@17.00
Lose
-50
Rhyme Dust is in stall 3 and arrives on the back of a dominant 5-length novice success at Salisbury just 4 days ago, where she looked well-suited by the 7f trip and quick ground. She runs off a mark of 70, which may still underestimate her given how she dominated that win, and the hood clearly had a positive effect as she travelled strongly throughout. Michael Usher has her improving, and Connor Beasley keeps the ride. With 1 win from 1 start at the distance and proven on fast going, she looks like a very lively chance if adapting to this higher grade.
15:00 3:00 Tramore
Met Office
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@17.00
Lose
-50
Met Office runs here off a mark of 86 with JJ Slevin riding for Edward Doyle. He was badly hampered at a crucial stage last time at Cork, so better can be expected today. His current mark looks workable given his past flat ability. Proven on this type of ground, he is the sort who could creep into contention if getting a smooth passage. Needs things to fall right, but not without every chance to win here.
14:52 2:52 Southwell
Minshaar
Daily Racing
50 WIN
@15.00
Lose
-50
Minshaar is in stall 6 and showed me some nice improvement when third at Doncaster last time. Running well over this trip and looking as though further progress is coming. Rated 71, she is fairly treated at this stage of her career, and the short break since should have freshened her up nicely. Richard Fahey has his youngsters running well, and Cam Hardie takes the ride from a middle draw that looks fine tactically. With 2 runs behind her, she has the benefit of experience now, and if settling into a good position off the pace, she looks to have every chance today to open her account.
14:50 2:50 Deauville
Diego Velazquez

@17.00
Win
800
Diego Velazquez is in stall 10 with Christophe Soumillon riding for Aidan O'Brien and comes here rated 118. He returned to form in style when landing a Group 2 over 7f at the Curragh 28 days ago, and that proved his class after a patchy spell. Proven at the trip and bred to thrive at the top level, he should be well suited by today's conditions. From this draw, he may be held up for a late run, and if building on that recent win, he looks a strong win contender with the pace expected to suit here.

@4.00
Win
150
Migdam is a 6-year-old by Zelzal and tries a hood for the first time, which could help him settle. He was well held in a Ballinrobe maiden hurdle last time but is usually consistent on the flat and has shown he can act on this type of going with a past win and two placings from 13 starts. K E Buckley takes the ride for Edward Buckley, and the horse is among the market movers today, which is very interesting. He needs to step up on hurdles form but could be a win player if the headgear brings improvement.

Win
87
Wild Clary is in stall 3 and comes here off a mark of 76, which looks workable for this level. He has yet to win in six tries at this trip but has twice made the frame, and his latest Newbury second showed clear progress when beaten just a length and a half. Richard Hannon is training, and Joe Leavy has weight claims, which helps his chance. With steady improvement in his profile and a fair draw, he looks capable of getting involved again and appeals as a win chance if he can settle early and travel strongly here.

Captain Pickles is in stall 2 and comes here after a fair effort at Beverley where he was beaten just over 6 lengths, running as though 7f stretched him a bit. He now drops back to a more suitable trip and runs off a workable mark of 51, which gives him a chance if things fall right. With 12 runs overall, he is still searching for a first win but has shown me glimpses of ability, and the 5lb claim from Matthew Slater helps his cause today.

Some Girl has William Maggs riding for R Menzies. Needed her run when down the field over 2m6f at Cartmel last time, but has been in good form before and usually held up. Effective on similar going and with the tongue strap and hood on, she could bounce back.

St Patricks Bridge has Tom Broughton riding for F O'Brien. Too keen when leading on chase debut and found the ground too soft when third over 3m last time. He has a strong mark from point and hurdle form though. Should settle closer to the pace, and he could show much better back on sounder ground.

-50
Potomac River is in stall 5 with George Wood riding for Terry Kent. Beaten 5 lengths on debut in a novice at Leicester, he wears a tongue-tie for the first time, which could help him settle. Likely to track the pace from his stall, he has the potential to improve and has every chance if he builds on that initial run.

Houstonn is in stall 6 with Alec Voikhansky riding for Richard Hannon. He has shown promise in past runs, including a good third over 12f at Ascot, and looks ready to bounce back. Likely to travel well in the race and could feature prominently if turning around to his best.

Dandys Angel is in stall 5 for John Wainwright with Tom Kiely Marshall claiming. This mare has had 42 runs with 8 wins and 9 places, giving a 19% win rate and 40% place rate. She runs from a mark of 63, which is workable, having scored off 62 over 10f at Beverley three starts ago. She has won at this trip, though consistency can be an issue here, and she was well held off 64 last time, but willing to have another go today. Usually held up, she will need luck from midfield, but the draw is fine. If the pace is strong enough, she could sneak into the places at a fair price here.

Wechaad is in stall 9 with Tom Marquand riding for Richard Varian. Improved nicely from debut when third in a 6f maiden at Ascot and is very likely to stay 7f and could progress again here. Well-bred and has the potential to feature if continuing improvement today.

Brigid Cloak is in stall 7 for Joseph Murtagh with P McGettigan up and is a filly with proven course and distance ability, having won over this track before. She shaped well in her last outing, finishing fifth off 84, and her mark of 83 makes her well treated. Drawn in stall 7, she can tuck in and track the pace nicely. With past wins over this distance and consistent form, she is a confident player who could easily step back into the winner's circle.

Harswell Ruby is in stall 4 with K Stott riding for Roger Fell. She has previously won at this course and distance and has shown ability over similar trips and conditions. Beaten 4 lengths off 67 at Beverley last time, she looks ready to bounce back, especially with the trainer in form here.

Rage Of Bamby is in stall 4 with Charles Bishop riding for Eve Johnson Houghton. She showed career-best form when winning over 6f here in second-time cheekpieces and is 2 from 2 at this course. Most of her best form has been at 6f, but she could be a leading player stepping up to 7f if she reproduces that level. Well-treated on current mark and conditions suit.

Fivethousandtoone is in stall 6 for Tim Easterby with David Allan riding. This seasoned sprinter has 34 runs with 5 wins and 7 places, giving a 14% win rate and 35% place rate. He races here from a handicap mark of 87, which is lower than his all-weather rating and looks a fair one given he was just beaten by half a length off 97 last time. He is best on the all-weather but has the ability to strike on turf if things fall right. He is usually held up and from stall 6 can get cover before being delivered late.

Jumby is in stall 2 with Charles Bishop riding for Eve Johnson Houghton. Former Hungerford winner but yet to win since 2023. Ran a solid third at Newmarket last time.

-50
Tertre Rouge is in stall 4 for Gavin Cromwell with Gary Carroll riding. After one start, he already looks like a colt with potential, in my opinion. He ran very nicely on debut when fourth in a Tipperary maiden, only 4 lengths behind. The three ahead of him all line up again here, which gives him a solid form line. Stall 4 is a handy draw that should let him sit in a good spot close to the pace. His pedigree suggests to me that improvement is highly likely, so he has another shot here.
14:45 2:45 Ripon
Fortamour
Daily Racing
Fortamour is in stall 13 for Ben Haslam with Paul Mulrennan riding. This reliable sprinter has 47 runs with 7 wins and 11 places, giving him a 15% win rate and 38% place rate. He runs from a current handicap mark of 79, which looks workable as his last win came off a similar figure over this course and distance 12 months ago. He has since placed here four times, so clearly enjoys the track and goes fine on this going. He was below par when beaten just over two lengths here last time, but that was still a fair effort. The wide draw in stall 13 is not ideal, though his hold-up style means he can slot in and come late.
14:32 2:32 Doncaster
Amirlan
Daily Racing
Amirlan is in stall 2 with S De Sousa up for Charlie Johnston and is a well-bred colt by Wootton Bassett out of the smart dam Credenza. Sold for 230,000 guineas, he has the pedigree and physique to be very competitive on debut. Drawn in stall 2, he can get a good early position and track the pace. With a half-brother, Kestrel, already useful at 7f, Amirlan could make an immediate impact today.
14:25 2:25 Newbury
Sugar Hill Babe
Daily Racing
Sugar Hill Babe is in stall 1 with David Probert riding for L. Williamson. A consistent mare with six career wins, she ran a solid second at Redcar last time. Effective over this distance and on similar going, she remains well treated in the handicap and is very much in contention for another strong showing to challenge for the win here.

Stella Amorosa is in stall 15 for Noel Meade with R Whearty claiming 3lb. She has run once without a win or place so far. She was beaten 7 lengths in a Fairyhouse maiden on debut but traveled strongly for much of the race before fading late, so there is scope for progress. Her mark is not yet established, and the wide draw is far from ideal and will likely force her to drop in, though that could suit if the race is run at a good pace. Possibilities today.

Maxwellcan is in stall 11 for Charlie Johnston with Jason Hart taking the ride. This 20,000 gns colt by Magna Grecia is bred to stay well as he is a half-brother to the smart stayer Themaxwecan, while his dam was useful at 10f. He makes his debut here over a trip that should suit, although the wide draw in stall 11 is not ideal for a newcomer. But with stamina in the pedigree, he may find enough to grab a place here.

This Dabirsim filly has had 6 starts with a 17% win rate and 17% place rate, and she runs from an unexposed mark which looks very workable. The inside draw in stall 2 is ideal for getting cover before producing a late run on, and she handles this distance well. If the race sets up with a good pace, she has each-way claims at good odds.

Simmering is in stall 3 for Ollie Sangster with Christophe Lemaire taking the ride, and she runs off 107, which is a tough but fair mark given she contested the Group 1 Coronation Stakes at Royal Ascot last time. This Too Darn Hot filly has course-winning form and has shown me enough in graded company to say to me that she retains a lot of ability. Still lightly raced with 7 starts, she has a 14% win rate and 43% place rate and looks well placed to improve back in calmer waters. The draw in stall 3 is good for a handy sit, and she is an each-way player if the pace is honest.

Sevensees is in stall 3 for Ruth Carr with James Sullivan riding and runs off a mark of 74, which is fair based on his best form. This Sea The Moon gelding has three wins over 5f, but he was beaten 3 lengths here last time in similar conditions and he handles both easy turf and the AW. The draw is reasonable for a prominent or stalking ride, and he arrives with a 14% win rate and 36% place rate. Willing to give this chap another go here and can bounce back if the pace is solid today.

Shadirwan is in stall 1 and represents Francis Graffard with Mickael Barzalona in the saddle. This Kingman gelding progressed sharply from his debut to win a conditions race over this course and distance last July, showing a nice turn of foot late on. No handicap mark yet, but clearly open to further improvement after only two career starts. The inside draw is ideal for securing a handy early position, and the even-looking pace should suit his style. With a 50% win rate from limited runs, he looks like a solid win chance.

Nibras Rainbow lines up in stall 8 for Gavin Patrick Cromwell with Robert Whearty claiming 3lb and runs off a mark of 48, which looks workable to me if back to best. This US Navy Flag gelding has placed over course and distance and is consistent in the frame without winning here. He was poorly drawn and never got involved at Limerick last time but has had a short break to freshen up. The draw is fine for his style and he has an 8% win and 33% place strike rates here.
14:55 2:55 Dundalk
Never Shout Never

Never Shout Never is in stall 10 for Stephen Thorne with Jack Kearney claiming 3lb. This No Nay Never gelding runs off 73 and has a decent record here with one win and three places from six runs. He went off too hard when beaten 7 lengths over 6f at Naas last time but clearly enjoys this track and handles the surface well. The draw is reasonable, and if he settles better stepping up in trip, he could be dangerous late on. 8% win and 54% place strike rates here.
14:20 2:20 Dundalk
Collective Power
Daily Racing
Collective Power is in stall 4 for Edward Lynam with Michael Hassett taking 3lb off. This consistent Slade Power gelding runs off a workable mark of 79 and has three course and distance wins from 20 attempts, plus a strong overall place record here. Last time, he raced too freely at Naas on turf, but his recent all-weather form has been better, and the yard has a solid record in this race. The draw is fair, and with a strong early pace, he could settle mid-division before finishing late. With a 9% win and 40% place strike rates, he looks to have every chance today.

Flamme Rouge is in stall 12 and arrives in top form for trainer Francis Graffard after back to back wins, most recently a comfortable success in a 2400m conditions race at Nantes where she had a couple of these behind. By Sea The Stars out of a Dubawi mare, she has the pedigree to keep improving with distance and experience. No handicap mark yet and Christophe Soumillon keeps the ride which is a big plus. Draw is not ideal but she is versatile tactically and can be positioned where needed. Definite win chance with pace looking good here

A 45,000 purchase by Starman out of a dam who was useful at 6f as a juvenile, she has an attractive pedigree for sprint distances. No handicap mark yet and is probably likely to be held up early before being produced late. Debut win chance if well-tuned.

He has won in this class and in blinkers before but has been below form of late, last time racing freely when 6 and a half lengths behind at Brighton. A short break may freshen him up and conditions are fine, with Crowley's booking catching my eye.

Giant is in stall 3 for trainer Ian Williams with William Carver riding and runs off a handicap mark of 69, which is fair but not especially lenient. He has a perfect record from one run at this course but has struggled for form lately, finishing 7 lengths back at Kempton. The drop back in trip should help, and Polytrack holds no fears for him. His strike rate in this class is modest. Likely to be held up and ridden for a late run, he could surprise if finding his old spark.

Backspin lines up in stall 6 for trainer Richard Hughes with Jim Crowley booked and runs off a handicap mark of 75, which looks workable. He is a distance winner and has a good record in this class, scoring on half of his starts at the level. The ground was probably a bit too testing when beaten 6 lengths at Windsor last time, and today's conditions should be much more in his favor. Although below form in two summer runs, he has shown me enough ability to be a danger if bouncing back here.

Chalk Mountain is in stall 8 with trainer W S Kittow and jockey T E Whelan. Consistent early in the season, hitting the frame in his first four starts. Although last time at Chester he met trouble and finished seventh, beaten 6 lengths. Effective over this distance and on similar going, wearing a tongue strap, he can be competitive if getting a clear run.

Riffa Spirit
Daily Racing
Riffa Spirit did not get a clear run when beaten on debut over 7f at Newcastle but ran as though better was possible. The drop to 6f should suit, and the stable is in good form. This is his first try on Polytrack, which could prove a positive, and from a handy draw, he is likely to track the pace before trying to quicken late. Definite win chance if finding improvement from that initial run.

Zoulu Chief is in stall 7, current handicap 81, which is okay. He has previously won at this course and distance and shows ability over 5f-6f on similar going. Beaten 7 lengths in the last handicap here and fourth when favorite over 5f previously, but generally enjoys making the running. Trainer Harry Main and jockey Kieran Stott team up and have a 27% win rate over this distance and 14% at this mark. Likely to lead and has every chance if getting his own way up front. Pace should be prominent here.

My Boy Harry
Daily Racing
My Boy Harry competes off a handicap mark of 51, which looks fair here. He has been running consistently well, including a narrow defeat over 5f and a respectable Brighton effort when hampered late on over 6f. Proven from 5f to 7f and capable on Polytrack, he should be suited by this test. The draw is fine for his style, and he is likely to be held up before making a late run. With his recent form holding up, he looks like a win shot today in a race that could be run to suit him.

Radical Design is in stall 1 with trainer S C Williams and jockey Marco Ghiani. He showed progression last time, winning a handicap by 2 lengths off 55, and has been in fair form with previous placings. Effective over this course and distance, and on similar going, he should race prominently and is a strong win contender here.

Legendsoftheland has struggled for form this season and was beaten in a 7f claimer at Roscommon last time. Although the first-time blinkers did show me a bit of spark. Off a short break and stepping back from a winter AW campaign, he may need this run but could show some improvement today. He will likely be held up and asked for his effort late, so it's not impossible if he recaptures any early season form.

Yellow Card is in stall 2 with trainer Mickey Bowen and jockey Billy Loughnane. He is a consistent performer, winning well over 12f here three starts back and running a solid race when slightly outpaced last time out over 14f. Effective between 10-12f on similar going, which should suit him today. He should be prominent and is likely to settle just off the pace before making his pounce.

Tees George
Daily Racing
Tees George is in stall 7 for trainer Adrian Nicholls with Harrison Shaw on board and runs off a handicap mark of 59, which is workable if he rediscovers his spark. He has strong course credentials with a C&D win and another place from three track runs. Cheekpieces remain on, which were worn for that victory. Last time at Redcar, he raced too freely and faded, but the short break since could help freshen him up. He does prefer this trip and surface here.

Too much Trevor can be hit and miss, so going for the each way today. He is in stall 8 for trainer George Harris with S Donohoe riding. He has been in decent form prior to a below-par effort at Brighton last time and likes over 7-8f. He has previously placed at this course, distance, and class, showing me that he can run well under the right conditions. Likely to be held up and asked for his effort late, he has an each-way chance if he returns to form, though the wide draw may make it trickier, so smaller stakes here.

Oh So Perfect is in stall 8 for trainer Charlie Fellowes with Paddy Bradley riding and makes her handicap debut off an untested mark. She showed me a lot of greenness and a little late response when beaten on debut at Newbury over 6f but is now fitted with a visor for the first time, which could sharpen her up. The wide draw is not ideal, but she is open to progress now that she has race experience under her belt, so each-way chances.

Slipper Time is in stall 6 for trainer H Candy with Rhys Clutterbuck riding. He has shown promise in his first two runs, finishing placed on both occasions over 7f, although still green and keen last time out. Stepping up to 1m should suit him today, and he acts well on this sound surface. Likely to be held up and asked for a late effort, he could improve noticeably here.

Miss Ayala is in stall 5 for trainer Michael Usher with Hollie Doyle aboard and runs off a handicap mark of 51, which looks workable if improving for this first run in a handicap. She has been consistent in 6f novices, last time at Windsor running to form despite a poor trip after missing the break and being forced wide before finishing over 8 lengths behind. The draw is fine and Doyle's booking is a plus. Likely to be ridden handier if breaking on terms here.

Imso Friendly is in stall 5 for trainer Brian Ellison with Zak Wheatley taking off 3lb and wears a hood for the first time. She was well beaten in a nursery here last time out but did run better on earlier runs. With her current handicap mark of 57 looking workable, she can bounce back. The hood could help her settle, and she is likely to be ridden with a bit more patience this time.

Pull The Rug is in stall 1 for trainer Edward Bethell with Callum Rodriguez riding and comes here after finishing a close third in a Pontefract maiden when sent off as favourite. She showed me good early speed there before being run down late over 6f, and the inside draw should allow her to adopt a handy position again. With just two starts, she is still learning and this run will qualify her for a mark, but she has shown me enough ability to say that she can be involved here.
