Newmarket 13:15
British Stallion Studs EBF Novice Stakes (GBB Race)
Winner £5,154, 2nd £2,417, 3rd £1,209, 4th £604, 5th £302, 6th £151
2yo, 6 Runners
Flat,Turf , 5f , GOOD TO SOFT (GoingStick 6.2)
🐎 1. Exclamation – Best Odds: 15/2 with Betvictor
Got off the mark with a promising third at Windsor on debut and looked sharp enough from the gates. That experience will count here, though he’ll need to find a few pounds to trouble the leading market fancies.
🐎 2. Henrythenate – Best Odds: 28/1 with bet365
This debutant makes limited appeal on paper and represents a yard more renowned for middle-distance types. Booking of Stevie Donohoe is interesting, but others appeal more in a sprint of this nature.
🐎 3. Military Code – Best Odds: 4/5 with Unibet
Represents the formidable Appleby-Buick axis and is sure to be well prepared. Bred for speed and already popular in the early markets. Likely to know his job and commands plenty of respect on paper alone.
🐎 4. Moonfall – Best Odds: 10/3 with Betvictor
Highly regarded and comes from a stable flying with its two-year-olds. Related to winners and shaped with promise in recent homework. Could prove the main danger to the favourite if handling the occasion.
🐎 5. This Guy – Best Odds: 6/1 with bet365
Clive Cox rarely runs them here unless they’re useful, and this colt is bred to be sharp. Strong market support would be notable, and no surprise if he makes an immediate impact at this level.
🐎 6. Slay Queen – Best Odds: 14/1 with Unibet
Represents the Hannon stable, who often introduce winners in early-season maidens. She may need more time, but it wouldn’t be a shock if she showed promise. Could be one to note for handicaps in time.
Verdict
Military Code looks the standout on paper and, given the yard’s record in these events, is expected to prove tough to beat. Moonfall appeals as the biggest threat with strong stable vibes, while This Guy could easily outrun his price on debut. Exclamation brings the benefit of experience and shouldn’t be far away if stepping forward.

Newmarket 13:50
Jenningsbet Newmarket British EBF Maiden Stakes (GBB Race)
Winner £4,639, 2nd £2,175, 3rd £1,088, 4th £544, 5th £272, 6th £136
2yo, 9 Runners
Flat,Turf , 1m , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 6.4) (Watered)
🐎 1. Competizione – Best Odds: 18/1 with Betvictor
From a high-profile yard but hasn’t seen a track yet. Being by Dubawi and partnered with Shoemark, he’s likely to need this run for education, but market support would be telling.
🐎 2. Dragonflame – Best Odds: 28/1 with Unibet
Showed only modest ability across two juvenile efforts last year. May require more time or a drop in grade, but connections persist, which suggests they expect some improvement.
🐎 3. Great – Best Odds: 9/1 with bet365
Hit the frame on debut and now reappears after a break. With fitness assured and Hannon’s runners in form, he’s a lively contender if progressing from that promising opening.
🐎 4. Hockney – Best Odds: 40/1 with Betvictor
No notable form in his profile, and this looks a very stiff ask on paper. Would need to show a completely new level to get involved.
🐎 5. Indian Springs – Best Odds: 4/1 with Unibet
Debuted in a warm maiden last backend and shaped well to finish third. That run reads nicely and he could step forward for the outing. Appleby-Buick combo makes him a key danger.
🐎 6. Kaleido – Best Odds: 5/2 with bet365
Highly regarded in the Gosden yard and finished runner-up on his only appearance. Expected to come on for that effort and should go close with Murphy booked again.
🐎 7. Licence To Conquer – Best Odds: 50/1 with Betvictor
Trainer often finds improvement with time, but this one looks a long shot. Without notable pedigree or form, hard to recommend at this level.
🐎 8. Nakeeb – Best Odds: 4/1 with Unibet
Ran with credit on debut and shaped as if this longer trip will suit. Hannon’s string are running well and this one shouldn’t be overlooked in a competitive field.
🐎 9. Raafedd – Best Odds: 9/2 with bet365
Represents the Haggas team and shaped like one for the future on debut. With natural improvement expected, he’s a live each-way player if sharper now.
❌ 10. Regal Guest – Non-runner
🐎 11. Sheikh Raj – Best Odds: 22/1 with Unibet
Flashed some early ability last term but didn’t build on it. Bit to prove and now returns in deeper company, so needs to take a sizeable step forward.
🐎 12. Silent Storm – Best Odds: 33/1 with bet365
Trainer can ready one for a debut but this colt will need to be above average to win first time in a field like this. Likely to improve with experience.
🐎 13. Time Allowed – Best Odds: 20/1 with Betvictor
Has been quietly supported in early markets but faces a field packed with potential. Might sneak into a minor placing if things fall his way.
Verdict
Kaleido brings the strongest credentials based on debut form and can strike now with that experience in the bank. Indian Springs looks the main danger with his encouraging third behind smart types. Nakeeb could relish the step up in trip and is worth noting, while Great shouldn’t be underestimated with improvement expected second time out.

Newmarket 14:25
Jenningsbet Handicap
Winner £4,381, 2nd £2,054, 3rd £1,028, 4th £513, 5th £257, 6th £128
3yo+, 7 Runners
Flat,Turf , 1m , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 6.4) (Watered)
🐎 1. Fearnot – Best Odds: 6/1 with Unibet
This Clive Cox-trained filly impressed with a debut win and backed that up with a solid effort in defeat at Kempton. Now handicapping from a fair mark, and with Rossa Ryan in the saddle, she’s an obvious threat if improving again.
🐎 2. Transparent – Best Odds: 15/2 with Betvictor
Unbeaten in two this season and rising fast through the ranks. Now up in class and facing rivals with stronger form lines, but remains unexposed and should not be discounted. Jim Crowley retains the ride.
🐎 3. Byblos – Best Odds: 4/1 with bet365
A consistent performer for the Gosden yard who hit the frame multiple times at two. Steps into handicaps for the first time and looks nicely treated if progressing as expected. Kieran Shoemark is booked again, and a big run is anticipated.
🐎 4. Present Times – Best Odds: 10/3 with Betvictor
A strong-finishing winner at Southwell last time and looks to have plenty more to offer for Godolphin. William Buick back aboard adds confidence. One to fear if getting a clean run from off the pace.
🐎 5. Watching Stars – Best Odds: 13/2 with Unibet
Improved throughout his juvenile campaign, placing twice before a breakthrough win. Has shaped like one who could thrive over this trip, and although this is tougher, he can’t be ruled out entirely.
(Note: Only five full runners were listed in the original data provided. If more appear later, I can continue the full field.)
Verdict
Present Times edges the vote in what could be a very informative race. His recent win suggested he has the scope to handle tougher assignments, and Buick’s presence is a notable positive. Byblos looks a key player now entering handicaps with a solid foundation from last year. Fearnot brings solid form and may surprise if the race unfolds to suit, while Transparent remains unbeaten and could yet be a fair bit better than his current rating.

Newmarket 15:00
Jenningsbet Best Odds Guaranteed Handicap
Winner £12,885, 2nd £6,043, 3rd £3,023, 4th £1,510, 5th £755, 6th £378
3yo+, 6 Runners
Flat,Turf , 1m , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 6.4) (Watered)
🐎 Harper’s Ferry – Best Odds: 3/1 with bet365
Continues to thrive after a smart campaign last season, and Oisin Murphy remains an ideal partner. A sharp turn of foot was evident in his latest win, and he looks poised to make another bold bid up in class off a career-high mark.
🐎 Bopedro – Best Odds: 18/1 with Betvictor
Although now a nine-year-old, this campaigner still has the ability to outrun his price. Has form at this course and distance, and if things fall right from a wide draw, he could easily sneak into the frame at a big price.
🐎 Skukuza – Best Odds: 11/2 with BetMGM
Only narrowly denied here in October and previously looked a horse on the up. Buick keeps the partnership intact, and a good draw in stall 3 adds to his claims. Every reason to expect a solid effort from this lightly raced gelding.
🐎 Brioni – Best Odds: 14/1 with bet365
Found some consistency last summer and struck gold in a good-quality Sandown handicap. Capable of making an impact if returning fit, and Rossa Ryan’s booking is notable.
🐎 Tribal Chief – Best Odds: 5/1 with Unibet
Proved ultra-consistent last season and handled various underfoot conditions with aplomb. Ryan Moore is back aboard, and although he’s giving weight away to a few unexposed rivals, he’s a model of reliability and should give a good account.
🐎 Bullet Point – Best Odds: 14/1 with Betvictor
Finished off last term in flying fashion and could still have more to offer this campaign. The return to Newmarket is a plus, and if he gets a clear run, he could surprise a few.
🐎 Zain Blue – Best Odds: 22/1 with Unibet
Put up a string of likeable efforts in lesser races and now steps into deeper waters. He’s clearly in good heart, but this represents a significant rise in class.
🐎 Noisy Jazz – Best Odds: 18/1 with bet365
Likely to be suited by a strong pace and has caught the eye in big-field handicaps before. Could be one for the exotics if he finds a rhythm early.
🐎 Hiromichi – Best Odds: 40/1 with BetMGM
Has picked up wins in lower-grade contests but tends to struggle when upped to this level. Looks to have work to do to land a serious blow here.
🐎 Mythical Guest – Best Odds: 28/1 with Betvictor
Has become a little inconsistent of late, but possesses enough back-form to suggest he can’t be ruled out completely. Place prospects if the race falls apart late.
🐎 Desperate Dan – Best Odds: 25/1 with Unibet
Form tapered off after a strong middle-season spell. First-time cheekpieces might rekindle some spark, but others arrive in better heart.
🐎 Urban Sprawl – Best Odds: 18/1 with bet365
Showed battling qualities when scoring last time. Has a tendency to hit a flat spot mid-race, but a truly run mile here could see him staying on again late.
🐎 Waiting All Night – Best Odds: 14/1 with Betvictor
Gave a decent account of himself in a pair of Class 3 events and could sneak into the mix again if building on those efforts. Needs a clean trip to be at his best.
Verdict
Harper’s Ferry arrives with momentum and looks well treated despite the rise in grade. Skukuza is a major threat and should be suited by this test, while Tribal Chief is impossible to ignore given his solid profile and Moore in the saddle. Each-way players could do worse than Bullet Point, who brings some strong late-season form to the table.

Newmarket 15:35
Jenningsbet Buntingford Handicap (A Jockey Club Grassroots Middle Distance Series Qualifier)
Winner £4,381, 2nd £2,054, 3rd £1,028, 4th £513, 5th £257, 6th £128
3yo+, 7 Runners
Flat,Turf , 1m 2f , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 6.4) (Watered)
Twirling (Best Odds: 11/2) – bet365
Twirling has been consistent throughout the season, though without hitting the heights of her earlier win. Ryan Moore takes the ride today, and despite some tough recent races, she has the potential to bounce back and challenge for the win.
Forever Blue (Best Odds: 8/1) – Unibet
Forever Blue started the season well with a victory but has struggled in her most recent outings. James Doyle will be looking to recapture that winning form, and while it’s been a tough stretch, she could surprise if she finds her earlier spark.
Surveyor (Best Odds: 3/1) – Betvictor
Surveyor has been in fine form, consistently placing and even securing a win earlier in the season. Daniel Muscutt rides today, and with this filly’s proven consistency, she’s rightly the favorite and will be tough to beat if she runs to her usual level.
Nocturnal (Best Odds: 12/1) – bet365
Nocturnal has had an up-and-down season, with two wins earlier but failing to show her best in recent runs. Hector Crouch will hope to get more out of this filly, and if she can return to her winning ways, she could be an interesting outsider.
Queen’s Reign (Best Odds: 6/1) – Unibet
Queen’s Reign has performed admirably this season, with a win and several placings. Tom Marquand takes the ride, and while this race is competitive, she’s capable of making her presence felt and is a solid each-way contender.
Zapphire (Best Odds: 5/1) – Betvictor
Zapphire has been a consistent performer this season, and though she missed out last time, she remains a strong contender. With Tom Kiely-Marshall aboard, expect her to be in the thick of things and in with a good chance of landing a place.
Bellarchi (Best Odds: 20/1) – bet365
Bellarchi has struggled to find her form recently, and although she showed promise earlier in the year, it’s difficult to see her turning things around today. Sam James will need to pull out all the stops to get her into contention.
Lunar Eclipse (Best Odds: 11/2) – Unibet
Lunar Eclipse won on debut last season but was disappointing in her return this year. William Buick retains the ride, and with her connections, she could rediscover her form and challenge for a top spot in this competitive field.
Ziggy’s Phoenix (Best Odds: 16/1) – Betvictor
Ziggy’s Phoenix has run some good races this season, with a win over course and distance earlier in the year. Sean Levey takes the reins, and while recent form has dipped, a return to familiar conditions might see her regain competitiveness.
Mallavelly (Best Odds: 11/1) – bet365
Mallavelly has been consistent without quite getting her nose in front. Jonny Peate takes the ride, and if she can find just a bit more improvement, this could be the race where she breaks through for a win.
Verdict
Surveyor stands out as the most consistent performer and should go close today, but Lunar Eclipse, with William Buick aboard, could bounce back to form and provide a stern challenge. Zapphire and Queen’s Reign both offer strong each-way potential, while Twirling could also feature if returning to her earlier form.

Newmarket 16:10
Jenningsbet Bishop’s Stortford Handicap
Winner £4,381, 2nd £2,054, 3rd £1,028, 4th £513, 5th £257, 6th £128
3yo+, 10 Runners
Flat,Turf , 6f , GOOD, Good to firm in places (GoingStick: 6.4) (Watered)
Balticum (Best Odds: 12/1) – bet365
Balticum has shown glimpses of promise in his early outings. Ryan Moore takes the ride today, which signals confidence from the yard. He’ll need to find improvement but could offer value as a solid each-way option in this competitive race.
Byblos (Best Odds: 7/2) – Unibet
Byblos has shown good potential in his two starts, finishing second last time out. Kieran Shoemark partners him again for the Gosden team, and with further improvement likely, this colt should be right in the mix for top honors.
I Am I Said (Best Odds: 12/1) – Betvictor
Making his debut for Ralph Beckett, I Am I Said has an interesting profile and is partnered by Richard Kingscote. While it’s his first race, the colt is expected to show some ability, though he may need this experience to fully develop.
Knockabaroff (Best Odds: 20/1) – Unibet
Knockabaroff has already had a run and finished third on debut. Daniel Muscutt takes the ride again, and with some improvement, this colt could be a contender for the places. He’ll need to step up, but he can’t be dismissed entirely.
Our ‘Enery (Best Odds: 14/1) – bet365
This colt, trained by Andrew Balding and ridden by David Probert, makes his debut today. While a lot will depend on how he handles the step up in trip, Our ‘Enery comes from a yard known for producing strong juveniles and could be one to watch.
Present Times (Best Odds: 11/8) – Betvictor
Present Times, representing Charlie Appleby and ridden by William Buick, looks the one to beat. After a promising debut second, this colt is expected to improve and should go very close. He’s likely to be well-supported and has every chance of getting his head in front.
Renato (Best Odds: 16/1) – Unibet
Renato is an outsider here, making his debut for Marco Botti with Tom Marquand in the saddle. The colt’s breeding suggests he may need time to find his stride, and this race might be more about gaining experience than competing for top honors.
Sourdough (Best Odds: 40/1) – bet365
Sourdough didn’t make much of an impact on debut, finishing fifth, and will need to take a significant step forward to challenge here. Rob Hornby takes the ride, but this colt looks more of a long shot in this competitive field.
Too Don Juan (Best Odds: 7/1) – Betvictor
Too Don Juan has shown promise in his two starts, finishing fourth last time. Hector Crouch rides again for Ralph Beckett, and with further improvement expected, this colt should be in contention for a place at least, if not more.
Verdict
Byblos has shown plenty of promise and looks ready to get off the mark after a couple of solid performances. Present Times, with William Buick aboard, is likely to be the main danger and could take a lot of beating if he builds on his debut run. Too Don Juan and Balticum offer solid each-way value for those looking beyond the favorites.

Newmarket 16:45
Jenningsbet Your Local Bookie Handicap (Jockey Club Grassroots Sprint Series Qualifier)
Winner £6,700, 2nd £3,142, 3rd £1,572, 4th £785, 5th £393, 6th £196
3yo+, 6 Runners
Flat,Turf , 5f , GOOD (GoingStick: 6.5)
Al Misbar (Best Odds: 7/2) – bet365
Al Misbar has been consistent, with three strong runs under his belt, and should be primed for another solid performance. William Buick takes the reins for Charlie Appleby, and this colt looks to have a great chance of securing a win here.
Cairdeas (Best Odds: 15/2) – Betvictor
Cairdeas was impressive when winning two starts ago but struggled last time out in a tougher contest. Tom Marquand will be looking to guide him back to form, and he could be one to keep an eye on for a bounce-back performance.
We Dare To Dream (Best Odds: 15/2) – Unibet
We Dare To Dream has already notched a victory over this distance, and David Nolan retains the ride. O’Meara’s colt has shown enough ability to suggest he can be competitive again in this handicap, making him a serious contender.
Arbitration (Best Odds: 9/1) – bet365
Arbitration is a steady runner who has consistently been thereabouts in his races. Clifford Lee rides today for the Burke stable, and while a win might be a stretch, he has the capability to challenge for a place.
Megalithic (Best Odds: 14/1) – Unibet
Megalithic has shown flashes of promise this season, but he’ll need to put in a stronger performance to compete here. Hector Crouch takes the ride, and Ralph Beckett will be hoping for an improved showing from this colt.
Ecology (Best Odds: 16/1) – Betvictor
Ecology hasn’t quite found his stride this season, but Billy Loughnane is back on board, and the Sangster-trained colt could improve if he finds his best form. He remains an outsider but could surprise with a solid effort.
Veydari (Best Odds: 11/2) – bet365
Veydari secured a win last time out, and with James Doyle in the saddle, this colt looks ready to continue that form. Fahey’s runner has the right profile to challenge again, especially if the race plays to his strengths.
Aegean Sea (Best Odds: 8/1) – Unibet
Aegean Sea has shown glimpses of ability but needs to step up after some inconsistent runs. Ryan Moore takes over the reins, and if this colt can rediscover his form, he could be a real threat in this competitive field.
Noble Guest (Best Odds: 16/1) – Betvictor
Noble Guest has yet to show his best, though Tom Queally stays on board in hopes of extracting more from the horse. This colt remains a long shot, but if he can improve, a minor place could be within reach.
Jakarta (Best Odds: 20/1) – bet365
Jakarta has found it tough since his win earlier in the season, but Jack Doughty’s claim might help him return to form. A big step up will be needed, but a return to the winner’s enclosure isn’t impossible.
Rokuni (Best Odds: 16/1) – Unibet
Rokuni has had mixed results, with a victory earlier this year followed by some lackluster efforts. Charles Bishop will need to find more from the gelding to have a chance of featuring prominently.
Stapleford Park (Best Odds: 9/1) – Betvictor
Stapleford Park comes into this race in good form after a win last time out. Kieran Shoemark rides again, and with confidence high, this colt has every chance of putting in another strong showing.
Help From Above (Best Odds: 50/1) – bet365
Help From Above has yet to make a serious impact in his runs, and it’s hard to see him troubling the leaders here. Tom Kiely-Marshall rides, but this colt will need significant improvement to get involved.
Maldevious (Best Odds: 14/1) – Unibet
Maldevious has been consistent without breaking through for a win, and David Probert takes the ride today. Hugo Palmer’s colt could be a good each-way bet if he can put in a solid performance.
Verdict
Al Misbar is the standout, with William Buick aboard, and should be able to capitalize on his recent form. Veydari, fresh off a win, offers solid competition and could continue to improve. Stapleford Park, coming off a victory, looks another key contender, while We Dare To Dream and Cairdeas could also get involved in the finish.
