Kado Sacree

J: S Bowen T: O Murphy
Race Winner
6/4

Reason for Tip

You could be forgiven for questioning the maiden form of 4666 but Kado Sacree is bred for much better than that and we are likely to see that today on handicap debut. Enters handicaps on a rather low mark and this race is not very warm at all. Won’t take a great deal of improvement to take this today and the increased trip are a big positive on pedigree. Ground conditions are ideal and there’s lots of positives for this six year old today. Murphy yard in great form, have been all year and Kado Sacree has a big jockey upgrade today to the fantastic Sean Bowen. When Sean and Olly combine at Carlisle they’ve won 30% of races in the last two years and Sean will get the very best from this boy today at a course he knows very well. Looks set to win handicap debut.

⭐ NAP of the Day

Mr Griffiths – 2.05 Warwick (13/8)

Trainer: J & A O’Neill
Jockey: Freddie Robson (5lb claim)

Mr Griffiths showed little in maidens but absolutely bolted up on handicap debut last time out at Fontwell. The handicapper has reacted with a 6lb rise, but that still looks very manageable, especially with Freddie Robson’s 5lb claim offsetting most of it.

He remains very lightly raced and open to plenty of improvement. This is a similar test to last time and he looks the one they all have to beat — a confident NAP.

🎯 Dark Horse

Bystander – 5.30 Southwell (9/1)

Trainer: S C Williams
Jockey: Sean Levey

Bystander has struggled since switching yards, but both recent runs came at Chelmsford in stronger races than this. Today he drops in class and returns to a track he’s enjoyed in the past.

The booking of Sean Levey catches the eye and with plenty of rivals having question marks, Bystander could easily bounce back to form. At 9/1, he looks a cracking value play and one who could easily outrun his odds.

Vincenzo Peruggia

J: Rowan Scott T: C Johnston
Race Winner
11/4

Reason for Tip

Warm looking renewal here with a Balding three year old at the head of the market at time of writing but preference is for Vincenzo Peruggia from the Johnston yard. Ran ok on debut at Hamilton when third back in June last year and followed up at Beverley when winning nicely. Outclassed in the Vintage Stakes at Goodwood when last seen in July last year but this three year old is beautifully bred and looks a major danger on step back down to Class 3 company. Has an ok draw from stall 6 and represents a top yard who won this race last year. Rowan Scott aboard for the ride. Vincenzo Peruggia is highly unexposed and remains open to plenty of further improvement. Should go well fresh and has a major chance today in this grade.

Jack Doyen

J: J M Quinlan T: B I Case
Race Winner
39/10

Reason for Tip

This ten year old consistently produces best work in March and April each year and we’ve seen that again this year. Third at Leicester and then a winner at Hereford lto. Remains well treated off adjusted mark and is likely to run well again today in conditions that are ideally suited. For a small yard the Case’s have found a couple of winners recently and that bodes well for Jack Doyen’s chances. Biggest question mark is the course, makes debut today at Newton Abbot and has sometimes struggled going left handed but if he can shake that off, looks to have a good chance today.

Springtime Legend

J: R P McLernon T: N P Mulholland
Race Winner
21/2

Reason for Tip

Pretty open race here and Springtime Legend from the Mulholland stable. Low mileage and only three runs in handicaps so far with form of 613. Wasn’t far away lto when third and looks to be open to further progression from this mark. Will stay this trip and acts on this ground and looks more than capable of having a big run today. From a yard with a good course record and who’ve also found a patch of really solid form. Richie Mclernon in the saddle is no bad thing and Springtime Legend looks a nice price at 8/1 and is certainly not written out of winning this today.

Kirkdale

J: Callum Rodriguez T: E Bethell
Race Winner
3/1

Reason for Tip

Largely there or thereabouts recently for Kirkdale and form gong back to November last year reads 2244. Has struggled in last two starts when missing the break from arguably quite poor rides. Positive jockey change to the inform Callum Rodriguez today and has a plum draw from stall 2. Can run prominently so wouldn’t be surprised if the orders were to get out front and may be hard to peg back if given an easy time of it off this mark. Callum winning more than a third of his rides at the moment and partners with a stable that he has a stellar record for today. Kirkdale is in very good hands in a race that looks winnable. Big chance.

🍀 Lucky 15 Tips Today

Esperti – 1.52 Ffos Las (5/2)

Trainer: D A Rees
Jockey: Sean Bowen

Esperti has been a revelation since switching to fences and bids for a hattrick today. He won comfortably last time out at Fontwell and has only been nudged up 3lb, which looks lenient given the booking of Sean Bowen — a jockey worth that allowance alone.

He has already won here at Ffos Las, the ground is ideal, and this race looks very winnable. Esperti likes to race prominently and if allowed to dictate, he could prove very hard to pass. A major player once again.


Mountain Mike – 2.44 Exeter (10/3)

Trainer: Dr R Newland & J Insole
Jockey: Luke Scott (3lb claim)

Mountain Mike is still very unexposed, with form figures of 221, and has improved markedly with each start. He looked far more fluent over hurdles last time and now makes his handicap debut, which looks a sensible move.

This is a step up in class, but his profile suggests there’s plenty more to come. Luke Scott’s 3lb claim helps and if Mountain Mike progresses again, he has a serious chance of landing this.


Master Dunraven – 3.52 Ffos Las (3/1)

Trainer: N P Mulholland
Jockey: C O’Farrell

Inconsistent on paper, but the third place last time out was his best effort over hurdles to date. He looked more settled and fluent, which is encouraging.

Based on his Flat ability, a race like this should be well within reach. The ground and trip are ideal, and with O’Farrell riding well at present, Master Dunraven looks capable of building on that improved run.


The Caribbean – 4.58 Southwell (6/1)

Trainer: H Main
Jockey: Billy Loughnane

The Caribbean has turned a corner recently with two strong runs, including a win at Wolverhampton and a solid third last time out. He still looks fairly treated by the handicapper and remains open to further improvement.

Drawn wide again, but that hasn’t stopped him before, and Billy Loughnane is a big positive around Southwell. This race looks very winnable and The Caribbean rates a strong each-way leg for the Lucky 15.
