A good-quality Racing League handicap with a big field and a mix of exposed older handicappers, recent improvers, and lightly raced 3yos. Southwell’s Tapeta track is fair, though a strong gallop is typical in big-field middle-distance handicaps, making stamina and track craft key.

Pace & Draw Angles:Likely an even-to-strong pace, with several unexposed fillies from forward-going families. Draw looks neutral at Newbury over 6f on quick ground, but low numbers often find a smoother run if pace develops centre-to-far side. Strongest Contenders Tarot (Roger Varian) – Proven / Progressive Chicory (Ed Walker) – Promising Stormy Music (Andrew Balding)…

Ground: Good-Firm (well watered) | Predicted Pace: Even–Steady (no obvious trailblazer, may become tactical)Draw: Neutral at this trip – more about positioning than stall.

Race shape & pace:Plenty of inexperienced types, likely a solidly run 5f with both pace-forcers and keen debutants. Navan’s stiff finish means early speed can fold late, suiting anything finishing off. Low draws can sometimes help, but on good ground it plays fair if pace is even. Strongest Contenders Namiid (JP Murtagh) – Progressive Raphello…

Pace & Draw:Plenty of pace on show here. Genesis (drawn 2) and Little Queenie (6) like to be prominent, while The Highway Rat (3) and Nezeeh (1) can sit handy. Greek Flower (5) and Airspeed (4) tend to come from off the pace, which could play into their hands if they get a tow. With…

Pace / Draw Setup:Chelmsford 7f can favour those handy, especially from inside stalls. Pace looks muddling here – no obvious trailblazer, but Sovereign View (2) and Armstrong (3) both went forward before, so could contest. Hold-up types like Moon Warp and Tie Fighter risk being trapped wide (draws 8/10). Low draws generally preferred, so Archer…

I set the filter on the Timeform website to show me horses from today’s racing that are in form, suited by the track, going and distance. It selected these 9. 3:15 Catterick Bridge → Rain Cap (4/1), Dream Deal (4/1), Miss Rainbow (11/2), Quercus (6/1). 3:45 Catterick Bridge → Bollin Neil (3/1). 5:45 Hexham →…

Race setup:Class 4, three-year-olds only, 12k pot. Polytrack 6f – tends to suit those who can sit close to pace but not blast too hard; stall position is less critical than at Chelmsford or Lingfield but a wide trip into the bend can still cost. Predicted pace looks solid with several that like to go…
