Charmaine
D Muscutt, J R Fanshawe
Charmaine makes a strong case in this Racing League mile-and-a-quarter handicap on soft ground. The four-year-old filly arrives in excellent form, having won two in a row—including a recent Kempton handicap—and placed in similar contests at Chester, indicating she handles both the extra distance and slower ground with ease. Rated 85, she runs off a weight reflective of that progressive theme and has demonstrated a liking for this class. With Daniel Muscutt’s confident front-running tactics and James Fanshawe’s well-timed placement, Charmaine looks well suited to this style of race and carries strong claims of being involved at the business end.

Bishop’s Crown
R Kingscote, E Johnson Houghton
Bishop’s Crown makes a compelling bid in tonight’s Racing League Race 2 Handicap over 6f at Yarmouth. The five-year-old colt arrives off the back of a solid third at Windsor earlier this week, running well on soft ground and suggesting the first-time blinkers will sharpen his finishing kick. Rated 78, he boasts course experience and has already shown he can win at this level, having landed two races here last season. The return to Yarmouth and ground that could again test the field align neatly with his strengths. With Richard Kingscote partnering and Eve Johnson Houghton’s targeting in full swing, Bishop’s Crown is well suited to this scenario and is one to monitor closely in the closing stages.

Mount King
D Allan, T Easterby
Mount King looks well suited to tonight’s Racing League Race 3 Handicap (Class 4, 1 m 3 y) at Yarmouth. The five-year-old holds a valuable course-and-distance victory from earlier this season and has shown consistency, most recently finishing mid-pack in a strong 1m contest here—suggesting he handles this track’s soupy underfoot conditions well. With a current rating of 72 and a light weight, he remains attractively treated for this level. Dougie Allan’s experience in conditions like this adds further appeal, and Tim Easterby’s ongoing form only strengthens his chances. Mount King combines proven Yarmouth form, stamina for the mile test, and fitness all pointing to a bold performance tonight.

Mister Bluebird
M Paetel, H Main
Mister Bluebird makes plenty of appeal in Race 4 of the Racing League, a 7f 3y Class 3 handicap. The seven-year-old retains his spark, fresh from a Goodwood victory in June and a strong second at Epsom last month. Now racing on soft ground, which clearly plays to his strengths, and off a revised mark of 80, he remains well treated. He’s a versatile type with proven staying speed and a sharp turn of foot, and Mason Paetel’s positive riding style should suit him well in this setup. With recent form and ground conditions in his favour, Mister Bluebird looks primed to run a big race.

Jer Batt
F Marsh, D & N Barron
Jer Batt enters the Racing League Race 5 Handicap (5f 42y, Class 3) at Yarmouth with plenty to like. The five-year-old showed his quality last season with a strong Haydock win and a close second at Doncaster, and this year he’s had excuses in two runs—struck trouble at Chester and missed the break when favourite in the Dash at Epsom. Rated 90, he drops back to a more conventional 5-furlong test on soft ground, conditions that should suit. With Finley Marsh taking the ride and connections giving him a confident spin in this grade, he brings course ability, form at the trip, and a mark that leaves him well positioned. Jer Batt looks well suited to capitalise tonight and holds strong claims of bouncing back to winning form.
Yarmouth 8:10 pm
Pique’
D Muscutt, J R Fanshawe
Pique’ makes plenty of appeal in tonight’s Racing League Race 6 Handicap over 1m 6f 17y on soft ground. The four-year-old brings a solid profile to the race, having posted a career-best when winning over this trip on heavy ground at Nottingham last season. More recently she delivered her best performance of 2025 when a close third at Haydock (14f) just six days ago, suggesting she’s sharper than ever. Off an official rating of 83, she remains attractively treated and appears well suited to conditions. With Rossa Muscutt’s strong handling and James Fanshawe targeting her clearly, Pique’ has plenty to like—expect her to come into her own in the latter stages of tonight’s value-packed contest.
Yarmouth 8:40 pm
Wave Rider
T Whelan, H Charlton
Wave Rider makes a persuasive case in Race 7 of the Racing League, run over 1m 2f 23y on soft ground. The lightly-raced four-year-old caught the eye when breaking his maiden at Sandown last month, displaying a smooth turn of foot and composure beyond his years. Now stepping into a Class 2 handicap off an official rating of 88, he appears to be well treated for the level. His breeding and Sandown performance both suggest he will relish this trip, especially under the patient ride expected from Tom Whelan. With Harry Charlton’s stable in fine form, Wave Rider looks ideally suited to this assignment and sets the standard to be beaten.
