Celebrate With Sponsorship At Southwell Racecourse Handicap (Div 2)

Won for Robert Cowell at Lingfield in March but went the wrong way for that yard after. Right back on track after a stable switch when a nose second of 5 at Redcar (5f, good to firm) but not in the same form at Catterick last time. Could bounce back with tongue strap back on.

Went with more spark when fourth of 8 at Pontefract in first-time visor in August and has valid excuses for his last 2 efforts, trapped wider than ideal when sixth of 10 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (5f, all-weather) 14 days ago. Mark has eased even further.

Winner at Yarmouth in June and has run respectably enough on his last 2 starts, most recently when fifth of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, all-weather) 14 days ago. Others still make greater appeal for win purposes, though.

Improved when landing 5f Thirsk handicap in May before following up in 7-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f) a month later. Ran respectably with the application of blinkers when sixth of 11 in handicap at Chester (5f) 63 days ago and he remains of interest.

C&D winner who gained reward for consistency when scoring at Nottingham last month. Found life tougher under a penalty when fifth of 9 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, good, 9/4) 43 days ago but is 2 lb lower this time.

Low-mileage sprinter who's improved since being gelded. Still a work in progress when a neck second at Newbury (5f, good to firm) last month and caught the eye with his finishing effort when third of 16 in handicap (6/1) at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Leading player.

Forward-going sort who won 4 times when progressing in handicaps last year. Looked back in form earlier in the summer and switch to patient tactics seemed to backfire when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Feasibly treated with blinkers reached for,

Scored at Wolverhampton (5f) in May but below that form on last 4 starts, so has something to prove at present.

Won handicap at Nottingham in June then was fourth of 9 at Ascot in July before struggling at Goodwood later that month. Fared no better back on all-weather at Kempton last time and it's possible she's now gone off the boil.
