14:00 · Carlisle

Jewel Maker (IRE)

Paul Kavanagh Memorial AJA Novice Flat Amateur Jockeys' Handicap

Outcome
LAY LOST
Recommended lay
9.00
Winner
Jewel Maker (IRE)
Horse result
1st of 8

What went wrong

Jewel Maker came from the rear half of the field, moved into the lead two furlongs out and drew clear inside the final furlong to win by four lengths.

What to watch

The decisive finish, rather than a narrow break, is the key warning from this race for future amateur-rider handicaps.

14:22 · Lingfield

Follow @attheraces On X Nursery Handicap

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
9.40
Winner
Prince Kameo
Horse result
2nd of 11

What worked

Whiskey Galore was held up and made late headway, but Prince Kameo took over near the finish and the selected horse could not reach the winner.

What to watch

Whiskey Galore finished strongly, took second on the line and was beaten by only three-quarters of a length.

15:37 · Ffos Las

Ridger (IRE)

CJCH Solicitors Classified Stakes

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
3.70
Winner
Macarone
Horse result
2nd of 6

What worked

Ridger was held up and made progress only in the final furlong, while Macarone had already taken the lead and ran on to win.

What to watch

Ridger finished well enough to take second in the final strides and was beaten by one and a quarter lengths.

16:55 · Lingfield

King Cherry (IRE)

Sky Sports Racing Virgin 512 Handicap

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
7.00
Winner
Royal County Glory
Horse result
4th of 11

What worked

King Cherry was outpaced over a furlong from home and, although rallying late, could manage only fourth as Royal County Glory held on.

What to watch

The late rally brought King Cherry to within two lengths of the winner, so the horse was not completely out of the race.

17:42 · NEWTON ABBOT

Estate Planning (IRE)

ITUS Event Support Services Novices' Limited Handicap Hurdle

Outcome
NON-RUNNER
Recommended lay
5.30
Winner
Buxted Reel
Horse result
non-runner
Result note
Late non-runner.

What happened

Estate Planning was withdrawn because of unsuitable ground and took no part in the race, which was won by Buxted Reel.

What to watch

The selection is recorded as a non-runner and void, so it remains among the seven published picks but is excluded from settled totals, strike rate and profit or loss.

18:00 · Southwell

Beaming Light

Download The Raceday Ready App Handicap (Div I)

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
7.40
Winner
Heretic
Horse result
3rd of 10

What worked

Beaming Light came from midfield and kept on into third, but was never nearer and could not trouble Heretic, who made all and won comfortably.

What to watch

The selected horse continued to make ground late and finished three lengths behind the winner rather than fading out of contention.

18:42 · Newton Abbot

Touchwoodexpress (IRE)

Compwiz Ltd - IT Solutions For Business Handicap Hurdle

Outcome
LAY WON
Recommended lay
6.20
Winner
My Girl Katie
Horse result
6th of 6

What worked

Touchwoodexpress led before being headed after the third-last hurdle, then weakened quickly and finished last, more than 50 lengths behind My Girl Katie.

What to watch

The selected horse controlled the early part of the race, but the challenge ended as soon as the stamina test began to bite.

What we learned / things to watch

Five of the six settled selections were beaten. Touchwoodexpress gave the clearest lay win after weakening sharply, while Whiskey Galore and Ridger were reminders that a horse can finish strongly without winning. Jewel Maker's clear success is the result to revisit, and Estate Planning's withdrawal must stay visible without affecting the settled figures.
