Find out which runners on Friday caught the eye of the Timeform reporters last time and were awarded the Horse In Focus Flag.
What is a Horse In Focus?
Every performance in Britain and Ireland is closely scrutinised by the expert race readers at Timeform whose tasks include identifying horses that shaped better than the result. Some of these eye-catchers will be awarded the Horse In Focus Flag.
A Horse In Focus comes in many forms, from a promising maiden winner to a veteran handicapper, but the common denominator is the same: the way the horse shaped suggests it’s likely to be something to back next time.
All of the day's Horses In Focus can be found within this article, which also includes a best bet selected by a member of the Timeform Sporting Life team.
The Timeform Flags also appear on the Racecards + section, available for Sporting Life Plus members, on Sporting Life racecards.

Friday's Best Bet
Jubilee Walk - 13:33 Doncaster
JUBILEE WALK has gone close in some competitive sprint handicaps this season, including when runner-up in the Sky Bet Dash at York in July and in another big field at Ascot last month behind Brosay who he meets on better terms here.
That's another handicap that has worked out well, and Jubilee Walk has since run another excellent race in defeat when beaten a couple of necks behind Run Boy Run in the Ayr Gold Cup. Jubilee Walk was left with too much to do after racing in the disadvantaged group but finished well for third. With cheekpieces back on, he can gain a deserved first win of the year.
