19:06 YARMOUTH: Roxys Bullet (Trap 4)
The first race at 19:06 features an intriguing competitor, Roxys Bullet (Trap 4). With ample experience on the Yarmouth track, this seasoned A1 racer previously made headlines by securing the Essex Vase at Romford, despite being an underdog. There’s potential value here, as this runner is known for strong box starts. Even if Roxys Bullet is slightly behind early, the presence of four railers could provide the perfect opportunity to position and strike later in the race.
19:22 YARMOUTH: Bombay The Joker (Trap 1)
At 19:22, my top antepost pick, Bombay The Joker (Trap 1), will take to the track. Though relatively new to Yarmouth with only three starts, he’s already claimed two victories. His most recent performance, clocking in at 27.48 seconds, was his fastest yet. With more improvement likely, he’s poised to shave off sometime and be tough to beat, especially with his solid early pace along the rail.
19:39 YARMOUTH: Swift Depot (Trap 5)
For the 19:39 race, Swift Depot (Trap 5) returns to the standard trip after showcasing stamina at Monmore and over 659m here. Back in July, he posted the quickest time over the course with a 27.38-second dash, making him a strong contender. His preference for traps 5 and 6 aligns well with his orange jacket in this heat. Expect him to settle in around the first corner and make his move on the backstretch.
19:56 YARMOUTH: Antigua Eagle (Trap 6)
At 19:56, one of the pre-race favourites, Antigua Eagle (Trap 6), is a runner to watch. He recently finished second in the Gold Cup at Monmore, behind the renowned Churchfield Syd. With three appearances in Category 1 finals, his first podium finish suggests that a major victory is near. Though his recent trial was unremarkable, Antigua Eagle tends to improve with each run and should deliver a better time than his 27.94 seconds tonight.
20:13 YARMOUTH: Druids Say Go (Trap 1)
In the 20:13 heat, my pick is Druids Say Go (Trap 1)—not to be confused with Druids All Go (Trap 3), also in this race! I’ve always been impressed by her, and though Romford is her strong suit, her trial over 462m here was promising. With another run, she could improve further. Her early pace is excellent, and if there’s any crowding, she’s likely to find an inside path and avoid trouble.
20:31 YARMOUTH: Droopys Doughnut (Trap 6)
Finally, at 20:31, Droopys Doughnut (Trap 6), one of the three wide seeds in the competition, takes the stage. A quarter-finalist at Towcester's Derby, he’s been relatively quiet since but posted a decent trial time of 27.86 seconds. With improvement expected, Droopys Doughnut should find an easy route on the outside and cruise into the semifinals.
These races promise excitement and unpredictability, with several strong contenders vying for a place in the next round.
