Form Analysis by Rob Auber
Race 1:
OVERVIEW: STEADY DREAM (3) resumes here since August and showed ability at her only campaign when runner up back in July 2024 and competing against stronger type. Has trialled up well for a solid first up showing along with stable mate and first starter ILLUMINANCE (2) that is showing promise at the trials and equally has winning claims. SNICKERS EXPRESS (1) was well fancied when first up from a spell and finished behind the placegetters but can improve from a better draw and stripping fitter for this. BLITZER I HOPE (5) has been teasing to win for a while but yet to deliver after 18 attempts. Worthy of another chance. CRESCO CASHFLOW (7) ALABAMA DELTA (8) RAGNA THOR (6) DRESSEDUPINTHECITY (4) are amongst the first four hopes.
EARLY SPEED: 2,3
SELECTIONS: STEADY DREAM (3) ILLUMINANCE (2) SNICKERS EXPRESS (1) BLITZER I HOPE (5)
RATINGS: 3/ 2/ 1/ 5/ 7/ 8/ 6/ 4
SUGGESTED BET: STEADY DREAM (3) to Win.
Race 2:
OVERVIEW: HUXHAM CHUBB (6) top run last start when runner up and showed similar ability in the past but has lacked consistency in her performances. If she can produce her best, she will be hard to beat. DAVOLAS LEGACY (1) nicely bred first starter from the Jess Tubbs stable that is sure to be well educated and prepared. Expect a forward showing. BARBS BLUE CHIP (4) 6yo mare that resumes from a very long spell but has trialled up well for this and a forward showing will not surprise. QUEEN BESSIE (2) resumed from a long spell when placed and will strip fitter and can keep improving. GOODTIME MIXNITUP (3) was safely held last start and strikes a race to improve and is amongst the place and first four chances along with ORSINO BELLE (8) CRESCO BELLADONNA (5) and ORCH (7).
EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,6
SELECTIONS: HUXHAM CHUBB (6) DAVOLAS LEGACY (1) BARBS BLUE CHIP (4) QUEEN BESSIE (2)

SUGGESTED BET: HUXHAM CHUBB (6) to Win.
Race 3:
OVERVIEW: SALSBOY (3) 12yo still racing with great zest and close to another win after two solid runners up placings. Hard to hold out. LORIMERMAJOR (5) was at the top of his game with a sharp win last start. Both horse and stable in form and might prove hard to hold out. GOODTIME STRYKER (2) started favourite last start and draws well here. Can give a big sight. YANKEE GAMBLER (9) continues to finish around the placegetters and is never far away. Gets a nice trailing draw and can run well here. FESTINALENTE (6) resumes from a long spell and hails from the astute Jess Tubbs stable. Watch with interest being first up after a long layoff. LESTER (1) resumes here and draws well. Has run well fresh in the past. Keep safe. BEST BACK BRUCE (7) is never far away and has claims despite the wide draw. KIDWITHAGRIN (4) is never far away and has place claims.

Race 4:
OVERVIEW: CHASING REX (4) lightly raced pacer that resumes from a spell but has shown ability and is better than his figure form reads. Can run well fresh and has each way claims. SILVER MYSTIQUE (1) sit and sprint mare that gets an ideal draw to be well poised and in striking range here. Definite chance. TOP GUN TED (5) resumes here but does have ability and capable of running well fresh. Both TORQUE POWER (7) and ROYAL SAXON (6) have been racing well and measure up well here but have wide draws. Neither would surprise winning this. FORESIGHT (8) resumes in this and showed plenty of talent as a 2yo. Does meet more seasoned campaigners in this being first up but no reason why she can’t run well. Both CHEVRON FLIES (2) and DEEWHY (3) have nice draws to be prominent and are capable of being amongst them in the finish with suitable trips in an open race of many chances.
EARLY SPEED: 1,2,3,4
SELECTIONS: CHASING REX (4) SILVER MYSTIQUE (1) TOP GUN TED (5) TORQUE POWER (7)
RATINGS: 4/ 1/ 5/ 7/ 6/ 8/ 2/ 3

OVERVIEW: STEEL THE MOMENT (3) will be improved by his first up run after a long layoff. Getting fitter and is smart when right. On the up and can run well. BETA THAN LOVE (7) racing very well and extremely unlucky last start. Ready to win! BIZZNESS CLASS (8) has been racing against strong company and measures up very well here. A major chance. COTCHINELLIE (4) is also racing very well and close to another win. Just needs a suitable trip to fight out the finish.

OVERVIEW: MONT SALLY (7) disappointed last start but her prior form was solid. A fast beginner and back in distance. Can make amends here. KYVALLEY ANTHONY (8) racing very well and has been teasing to win another race. Must be respected despite the tricky draw. POPPY POPSTAR (10) working back into form and looks suited here with a nice trailing draw. Expect her to be running on well late. Both FLING IT RAINBOW (5) and MUMSTHEWORD (3) have early speed and can take up forward position and should be in this for a long way.
