Yes Dave You the Best

Race 1 – 11:50 – 32Red Casino Claiming Stakes – class 6 – 2yo – 1m

A poor start to the card which makes no appeal as a betting race. Slinkey Mcvelvet got off the mark 2 runs back at Wolves in claiming company. He wasn’t so good there back in a handicap last time but he makes plenty of appeal here at the weights. He is by Refuse To Bend who has a decent record over course and distance with his progeny and he rates as the one they all have to beat. Maupiti Express (FR) is lightly raced and would be of interest usually but his sire has yet to have a winner over course and distance with his progeny. Paddy’s Bay comes into this on the back of a fair 4th at Wolves and could be the surprise package here. He is by Sleeping Indian who does well here with his progeny.

Race 2 – 12:20 – 32Red.com EBF Maiden Stakes – class 5 – 2yo – 7f

Queenie’s Home is the most exposed runner in the field but she has bounced back to form on her last couple of runs and has every chance switched to the sand. She is by Shamardal who has an excellent record over course and distance with his progeny and she rates as the one they all have to beat. Westminster (IRE) has to be considered for a yard that doesn’t send many runners here but when they do they usually go very close. John Gosden has a 37% s/r at the track. He is still lightly raced and open to improvement. He is sure to be popular and represent no value. Outback Warrior (IRE) finished midfield on debut in an poor Newcastle maiden. He will need to improve to get involved. Alba Verde is probably one for further down the line and is only considered if the subject of strong market support. Ventura Reef (IRE) makes plenty of appeal on breeding being out of a mare that has produced some decent animals. He is another that needs watching in the betting. Westminster is sure to be popular for a top yard but is also liable to be over bet. He is by no means ruled out but we feel the one to beat is Queenie’s Home at —/-



Race 3 – 12:55 – 32Red Nursery Handicap – class 5 – 2yo(0-75) – 7f

You won’t see many 3 horse races at Southwell but we have one here that is for watching rather than betting in. Madame Mirasol (IRE) comes into this on the back of 2 fine efforts where she has just been collared late on. She is a winner here and she will be difficult to overhaul in another bid from the front. Our Gabrial (IRE) has the same rating as Madame Mirasol and has every chance of taking to the surface. A bigger danger may come from course and distance winner Black Vale (IRE). He has a bit to find with Madame Mirasol but he is proven on the surface and shouldn’t be discounted in receipt of 9lb. We think the winner will be Madame Mirasol at -/-

Race 4 – 1:30 – 32Red On The AP Store Handicap – class 6 – 3yo+(0-60) – 2m

Neighbourhood (USA) all 3 wins have come here up to 14f and he comes into this having been a beaten favourite here on Tuesday. He travels really strongly and this looks slightly easier than his last race but although he has gone close over 2m here, I think he is better over shorter and he is vulnerable here to a strong stayer at the trip. Daldini would of won this easily in his pomp but he is rising 12 and he cannot be backed with confidence. Ice Apple broke her maiden at the 16th time of asking 2 runs back at Yarmouth. She backed it up with a fair 4th last time at Wolves proving her stamina for the trip. She is unproven on the surface and her sires record doesn’t fill you with confidence. Iceman is 1/48 at the track. Sings Poet has shown nothing so far and nothing stands out in the pedigree to make you think she will improve for a switch to the sand. Her sire Singspiel has a 14% s/r at the track which offers some hope she will act on it. Russian Link is a 5 race maiden that has shown very little and another who needs to improve for the switch to the sand. His sire has yet to have a winner at the track. The Young Master is potentially wel treated back on the level compared to his jumps rating but he makes little appeal on breeding and is overlooked. Mel Britain sends 2 runners both of them which are worth a 2nd look. Generous George (IRE) has shown very little on 3 starts but could be a different proposition now handicapping. Generous Dream has claims on his best form and he looks to hold every chance of taking to the surface. Both of his runners are by Generous who has a 15% s/r at the track. Aureate is extremely well treated on his best form but hasn’t won on the level for 3 years. He returns from a break with no great record fresh and although he has to be considered on the back of his course form it is hard to find another reason to back him. Neighbourhood has an excellent chance to make amends for getting turned over Tuesday but we are going to take an e/w chance on Generous Dream at 6/1



Race 5 – 2:00 – Ladbrokes Handicap – class 4 – 3yo+(0-80) – 1m

Chrissycross (IRE) is up 3lb for her 2nd win in 3 starts on the sand and finished 2nd in the other. She is clearly a progressive animal on the sand and not entirely dismissed but she will need to improve again against some other equally adept sand dancers. Maria’s Choice (IRE) is up 2lb for her hard fought win last time at Kempton when just getting the better of Little Buxted. She has to prove herself on the surface but it is highly likely that she will act on it or Alan McCabe wouldn’t be running her. She has a bit to find with Chrissycross on collateral form and she will need to improve to win this. Sofia’s Number One (USA) is a fibresand beast, she is the female equivalent of Dubai Hills and was registering her 6th course win back in August. She is on a career high mark against some useful sand performers so she will have to improve again but her course record affords her maximum respect and she has to be considered. The Lockmaster (IRE) is also a fibresand legend winning 4 times and making the frame on 15 out of 20 starts at this track. He has struggled since his last win here last May having been too high in the handicap but he is beginning to come down to a workable mark and is now just 1lb above his best winning mark of 79. He is one to consider for place purposes but may just struggle to win off top weight against better treated rivals. Doc Of The Bay (IRE) is a grand horse that is reaching the veteran stage of his career. He is a course and distance winner and has yet to be out of the frame in 4 runs at the track. He is starting to look well handicapped and although he is not the force he once was he cannot be discounted in this company. Kung Hei Fat Choy (USA) is a course and distance winner who is well treated on his best form. He returned to form 2 runs back at Wolves but was disappointing last time out having come off the bridle early and ultimately well beaten. A return to this track makes him of obvious interest and with the yard going well he is sure to be in the mix here. A really tricky race to work out with several of these you can make a compelling case for. It isn’t a race to get too heavily involved in but we think the value lies between Doc Of The Bay and The Lockmaster with a slight preference for the class horse in the field Doc Of The Bay at 7/1

Race 6 – 2:30 – Coral Just Three Clicks To Bet Handicap – class 6 – 3yo+(0-65) – 1m4f

Goldmachen (IRE) is a dual course and distance winner that is on a winning mark. She has been below par since joining this yard and she returns from a break with something to prove. April Ciel has claims on her best form which has all come on turf and she makes no appeal on this surface. Bavarian Nordic (USA) is a course and distance winner that is very well treated on his best form. He is back on his last winning mark of 57 which came at Carlisle in August last year which was his 1st since 2008. He is one to watch in the betting though with this trainer jockey combination one to note for if the money arrives. Yasir (USA) cut no ice with Godolphin and was soon off loaded to Conor Dore who has managed to get a couple of claiming wins out of him. He is bred to act on this surface and although he was well beaten in his sole start at this track it was in a far better race and he will find this much easier. Queen Of Skies (IRE) is a 7 race maiden but she has shaped as if having ability. She is by Shamardal who has an excellent record at this track with his progeny and is trained by Mick Appleby whos runners are always worth a second look at this track. She is a half sister to Feathered Crown who won 2 of his 7 starts for the late Sir Henry Cecil and she has to be considered in what is a weak race. Maakir (IRE) is an 11 race maiden that has several decent efforts to his name. He is by Street Cry so has no problems with the surface and is stepped up in trip in the hope of getting his head in front. He is a half brother to Meyaad who was a winner over 10f. He has to be considered as a potential winner. Kingaroo (IRE) is a course specialist having won here 6 times and is extremely well treated on his best form. He has made the frame twice over hurdles since his last win and he is no back number here returned to this surface. Corn Maiden broke her maiden over course and distance and regained the winning thread 2 runs back at Brighton, her frst for this yard. She has to bounce back from a poor run last time at Kempton but a return to this track is a positive and she is one of the more likely types. A tricky race with several to considfer. Maakir is sure to give his running as is Corn Maiden but were going to take a chance on Queen Of Skies at 13/

Race 7 – 3:05 – Compare Bookmakers At Bookmakers.co.uk Apprentice Handicap div 1 – class 6 – 3yo+(0-60) – 5f

Sir Geoffrey (IRE) comes into this on the back of a 2nd last time at Wolves and this course and distance has every chance if able to builds on that run. He is very well treated on his form and although he is nowhere near the OR 80 horse he was in his pomp, he is more than capable of winning this. Divertimenti (IRE) is another regressive horse that is nowhere near the horse he once was. He is a course and distance winner and comes into this having found only the rejuvenated The Dancing Lord too strong last week at Wolves. He isn’t one to put the family silver on but he is capable of winning this. Max The Machine broke his maiden over course and distance 2 runs back and backed that up with a fair run at Wolves. A return to this track will suit and he is ridden by an apprentice that knows him well. Insolenceofoffice (IRE) was well backed last time out here over 6f and run with credit finishing 4th having been just run out of the frame. The drop back to 5f will pose no problems and with a capable apprentice on board we think he is the one to beat. Auntie Mildred (IRE) broke her maiden 2 runs back at Beverley off a mark of 38 and backed that up having not been beaten far at Hamilton off her revised mark. She is lightly raced with improvement still to come. She is with a top yard in O’Meara and sure to be popular. She is by Elnadim so there is hope she wqill take to the surface. We don’t get involved in betting in apprentice races but despite Auntie Mildred looking to hold every chance we think the one to beat is Insolenceofoffice at 13/2

Race 8 – 3:35 – Compare Bookmakers At Bookmakers.co.uk Apprentice Handicap div 2 – class 6 – 3yo+(0-60) – 5f

Beach Rhytmn broke his maiden over course and distance in August and comes into this on the back of a win at Wolverhampton. He is up 5lb which will make life harder but he is going the right way and the one to beat. Thorpe Bay is a dual course winner that comes into this on the back of a 2nd last time here over 6f behind Spitfire. A good run from Insolenceofoffice in the previous race will be a boost to his form. He has a capable apprentice on and we feel he is the one to beat. Sarah Berry regained the winning thread 3 runs back at Kempton. She will need to defy a career high mark and prove herself on this track. She has the best jockey in the race on her back but her sire has yet to have a winner over course and distance which tempers enthusiasm. Chateau Lola is a course and distance winner that is on a winning mark. She isn’t one to put maximum faith in but again she has a capable apprentice on board and she has to be considered. Again it is not a race we would get involved in but we think the winner is Thorpe Bay at 7/2

Thanks Dave..
