Nottingham Place 6 Preview | 26th April

14.13 Dine In Sherwoods Restaurant Fillies’ Handicap

JAMIE SOMMERS ran a good race when third at Wolverhampton last time out and should have more to come stepping up in distance off an unchanged mark. REEM RAK should have more to offer after placing on her last two starts, while VALKYRIE STORM is another to consider.

Tips: JAMIE SOMMERS, REEM RAK & VALKYRIE STORM

14.48 9 Pound Racedays At Nottingham Racecourse EBF Fillies’ Novice Stakes 

BASSRAH is very well-bred and her trainer had a winning debutant earlier this month so any market support for her could prove significant. I also think IRIS OLIVIA has a chance for her in-form handler. She’s another worthy of a second look in a race that should prove to be informative.

Tips: BASSRAH & IRIS OLIVIA

15.20 Kevin Pauley’s 75th Birthday Handicap

ORBITAL CHIME has been solid in defeat on his last three starts and came close to defying a pound lower mark on his penultimate start. That form is good enough to close. WINCHURCH has become well-handicapped on last year’s form (last win off much higher mark) and he’s another to note.

Tips: ORBITAL CHIME & WINCHURCH

15.55 Pertemps Network Group Handicap

FAITHFUL DREAM is largely consistent in defeat and he caught the eye when third at Nottingham eight days ago. A repeat performance ought to see him in the shake-up. BOLD RETURN outran her odds when fourth at Southwell and should have more to come, so she’s also included.

Tips: FAITHFUL DREAM & BOLD RETURN

16.25 Pertemps Network Commercial Handicap

This will be fast and furious. DESERT COP has been running with credit in Bahrain and is now 2lb lower than when last successful, so he’s much respected with fitness on his side. Others to consider include SMART VISION and NOGO’S DREAM, who have leading claims on the pick of their form.

Tips: DESERT COP, SMART VISION & NOGO’S DREAM

16.55 British Stallion Studs EBF Nottinghamshire Oaks Stakes

It’s hard to see past SEE THE FIRE. This Group 2 winner has gone close at the highest level and has been found an excellent opportunity to make a winning reappearance. She’s miles clear of her opposition on ratings and form and it will come as a shock if she can’t outclass these.
