Saturday’s racing is a bit ‘meh’ in terms of field sizes, some of the races not helped by Lingfield’s new meeting, with big prize money. I suppose this is what happens when no central control of fixtures, but hopefully it’s sorted in the years ahead. Lingfield’s prize money is to be welcomed but the meeting has no doubt diluted the odd handicap at Ascot and Haydock. Although having said that, some had increasingly smaller fields in recent years.
You can find the trends and shortlists below, and the trainer pointers for all live races on ITV…

PART2
Applying the trends
2.35 Haydock
The one stat of note doesn’t really help.. well, two horses have to buck the 0-1 90 day trend… Royal Pegaille and Sam Brown. The rest have 2+ runs.
Trainers
- Royal Pagaille H1
- Remastered H3
2.55 Ascot
Four horses hit my 11/11 profile… 11/63, 22p, +72 BFSP…. and IF upholding would point to…
Fanion Destruval H2, Phoenix Way, Killer Clown H4, Knight In Dubai
All bar Phoenix Way ran in a C2 or 3 LTO, but that’s more a positive than a neg stat for his chance.
Trainers
- Fanion Destruval H2
- Pheonix Way H3
- Amour De Nuit H1

Really like Phoenix Way Josh, comes out of a strong heat for me
Just run the software and he comes out clear top
#prayforphoenix haha.
I’m yet to dive in properly, does look a competitive race at first glance.

Lovely stuff
yes very well done, I thought he was a bit of a monkey but have got him wrong there. Superb ride as it turned out, I thought Lucy had pinched it at one point and wasn’t sure what he’d find, but plenty, and move down in trip has done the job.
Josh
Thanks for Phoenix Way Josh top class
