14:14 NOTTINGHAM: FLAME WOOD (Trap 5)
Today's coverage features an exciting card at Nottingham, with one standout being FLAME WOOD (Trap 5) in the 14.14 race. Known for her impressive early speed, she has recently shown exceptional form. Despite a modest track record of three wins out of 22 races, her two victories in her last four starts and her ability to stay in A4 despite a recent win make her a formidable contender. If she gets off to a good start, she should dominate this race.
Another contender to watch is Bit View Honey, racing from the red trap. Although she has raced extensively, her recent win, marked by her fastest time in months, suggests she could string together a series of strong performances.
19:33 SUNDERLAND: CROSS KEYS HAWK (Trap 6)
Moving to Sunderland, I am particularly interested in CROSS KEYS HAWK (Trap 6) in the 19.33 race. Though I typically avoid handicaps, his style of coming from behind suits the staggered start perfectly. With two previous handicap races resulting in one win and a close second, and three consecutive wins recently, the 11-meter head start shouldn't hinder his chances tonight.
Keep an eye on Trubbys Severn (Trap 4), a strong and improving young runner with five wins and four seconds out of 16 races. Her tenacity and ongoing development make her a significant threat.
20:19 ROMFORD: FOURFOLD (Trap 4)
At Romford, FOURFOLD (Trap 4) has a promising opportunity in the 20.19 A3 race. Benefiting from a five-dog field with a vacant box on his outside, he should have ample space to manoeuvre. His trial times are the fastest in the field, and despite a challenging debut, he showed resilience by finishing third after overcoming early trouble. His determination and potential make him a strong candidate for victory.
Another noteworthy runner is Crohane Majic (Trap 1), who won his last A4 race by leading from the front. Although likely to start strong, he may struggle to maintain his lead against stronger competitors in the final stages.
