Pace Scenario: An even to fair pace is expected with no dedicated front-runner declared. Tactical positioning will be key. With Deauville’s long straight, horses with a sharp turn of foot and those ridden prominently but efficiently will hold an edge. Strongest Contenders: ASCOLI PICENO (Proven, Top-Class Filly) – Multiple G1 winner from Japan, including the…

A race confined to EBF-eligible mares who are yet to win under rules. Most of these are lightly raced or debuting, with a mix of moderate previous form and some potential improvers. Bumpers at Tramore often favour race-fit types or those from top yards, especially those ridden prominently. Key Contenders: LA CONFINER (W.P. Mullins /…

Pace Scenario: A solid early pace is likely, with Lady Wingalong, Miss Hathaway, and Carlton And Co all showing previous front-running tendencies. Pontefract is a stiff, galloping track where stamina is tested at this trip, and racing prominently can pay if the early gallop isn’t overly aggressive. Draw Angles: Low-to-middle stalls are generally favoured over…

Pace Scenario: A few possible pace angles here with Ixigreczed, Itsalonglongroad and Lady Rose Hackett all known to race prominently. The likely pace is even to solid, especially if one tries to stretch the field from halfway. Tramore’s tight, undulating right-handed circuit favours well-balanced types that can race handily. Strongest Contenders: ONEBRIGHTBLUEROSE (Proven & Competitive)…

Pace & Draw Angles: This looks like it will be run at an even tempo, with no obvious out-and-out front-runner but a few likely to race handily (e.g. Whatsgoingonmarvin, Desert Emperor, Papagei). Southwell’s Tapeta surface plays fair but can favour those prominent in steadily run races. The low to middle draws (1–6) tend to be…

Pace & Draw Angles This staying handicap lacks a true front-runner, with several runners typically settled mid-division or held up. Even pace expected, but Pontefract’s stiff uphill finish often turns tactical contests into tests of stamina. Draws are of minor importance over this extended trip, though those drawn inside have slight early positioning benefits –…

Pace Angles & Draw Bias This looks a steadily run race with several mid-pack and hold-up types; no habitual front-runner is present, although Wine An Dine and Tullyveery Lad could race handily. Tramore’s tight, right-handed track and uphill finish often reward tactical positioning, and horses off the pace may struggle unless the field over-races. Being…
