Sagacious Life preparing for the Hong Kong Classic Cup at Sha Tin

Sagacious Life Steps Up to 1800m in Hong Kong Classic Cup, Eyes Derby Path

Trainer Pierre Ng is banking on Sagacious Life’s proven stamina to make a decisive impact in the remaining legs of the prestigious Four-Year-Old Classic Series, with Sunday’s HK$13 million Hong Kong Classic Cup (1800m) at Sha Tin serving as a key stepping stone toward the HK$26 million Hong Kong Derby (2000m) on 22 March.

The chestnut, a Group 1 winner over 2400m before arriving in Hong Kong, has shown flashes of brilliance in his early local outings. He struck twice at Class 2 level over 1600m before finishing a hard-fought fourth last month in the HK$13 million Hong Kong Classic Mile (1600m), where Little Paradise sprinted clear to win by two lengths after overcoming trouble in the straight.

Ng remains confident that the extra distance will suit Sagacious Life. “He’s fit, healthy, and tracking in the right direction, especially as a stayer. I think he will be really good over further,” Ng said.

He added, “It was a very tough run from the wide draw (13) last start. Once he got cover, he was already travelling around the bend, then he had to roll out and pick up momentum again. Zac Purton did perfectly on him, but he was too rushed and it was his first time drawn outside. He still ran well, but I’m looking forward to the extra 200 metres.”

Sagacious Life had not previously faced a barrier worse than sixth in his first three outings. He trialled over 1200m on Sha Tin’s dirt last Friday (20 February), clocking 1m 10.05s under Purton, who keeps the ride for Sunday’s Classic Cup.

Ng reflected on the preparation: “He had a nice trial the other day. He doesn’t seem too fresh, which is good as he steps up in distance. Zac was happy with his work. To be participating in the Four-Year-Old Classic Series with the owner, we didn’t think of it at first, but now we have a real chance and we’re enjoying it.”

Sunday’s Classic Cup promises a competitive field. Sagacious Life faces a familiar challenge from Little Paradise, Infinite Resolve, and Beauty Bolt in the 11-race Sha Tin programme, which also features the HK$13 million G1 Citi Hong Kong Gold Cup (2000m), the middle leg of the Triple Crown. Romantic Warrior, Voyage Bubble, My Wish, Ensued, Beauty Joy, and Winning Wing are among the entries for the Gold Cup. With stamina likely to be the deciding factor, Sagacious Life could turn his wide-draw misfortune into a classic triumph.

Wolverhampton racecards 23 February Tapeta evening meeting

Wolverhampton Racecourse Hosts Competitive Nine-Race All-Weather Card Monday, 23 February

A busy Monday evening awaits at Wolverhampton Racecourse as a nine-race Flat (AWT) programme unfolds on the Tapeta surface from 4:25pm through to 8:30pm. The fixture blends apprentice handicaps, competitive Class 6 contests and informative maiden races, with the £10,000 5:30pm feature standing out as the highest prize event on the card.

The action begins at 4:25pm with The Midnite: Built For 2026 Not 2006 Apprentice Handicap Stakes, a Class 6 sprint over 6f 20y worth £9,000. Ten runners line up in a race that offers valuable experience for emerging riders, where pace and positioning will be crucial around the tight all-weather circuit.

At 5:00pm, The Restricted Maiden Fillies’ Stakes sees 11 runners contest a Class 5 event over 6f 20y for £8,000. Restricted maidens often prove ideal stepping stones for improving three-year-olds, and this sprint could reveal a filly ready to progress through the ranks.

The highlight of the evening comes at 5:30pm with The Maiden Fillies’ Stakes, a Class 4 contest over 1m 142y carrying the joint-highest purse of £10,000. Nine runners are declared, and the race brings together a fascinating mix of experience and potential.

Among the field is Oceanides (GB), a four-year-old filly partnered by William Cox and trained by Ed de Giles. Summer Heat (GB), rated 73 and representing James Owen, adds solid placed form to the line-up, while the well-connected three-year-old City Queen (IRE) runs in the colours of Godolphin for Charlie Appleby. The Gosden-trained Itsonlyrockandroll (GB) also commands respect, alongside Kelly Burn (GB) for James Fanshawe. Further depth is added by Midnight Sparkle (IRE) (James Tate), Pendella (IRE) (K. R. Burke), Regatta (IRE) (James Ferguson) and Silken Bay (IRE) for Dr Richard Newland & Jamie Insole. With several powerful yards represented, this mile contest could prove one of the most informative races of the meeting.

Handicap action resumes at 6:00pm with The Meg Nicholls’ Blog Handicap Stakes, a Class 6 event over 7f 36y worth £6,000 and featuring 11 runners. A near-identical contest follows at 6:30pm, again over 7f 36y, this time with 10 runners declared. Both races are likely to be tightly contested, with marginal differences in ratings often decisive at this level.

At 7:00pm, the programme returns to maiden company in The Maiden Stakes, another £10,000 Class 4 contest over 7f 36y. Eight runners go to post in what could be a stepping stone for horses with aspirations beyond the all-weather scene.

The final three races are staged over 1m 1f 104y. At 7:30pm and 8:00pm, two divisions of The Midnite Are Upping The Game Classified Stakes take place, both Class 6 contests with nine runners and £6,000 in prize money. Classified companies often produce competitive finishes, with closely matched ratings ensuring a tactical battle.

The card concludes at 8:30pm with The Golden Goals Handicap Stakes, another Class 6 contest over 1m 1f 104y featuring nine runners. As the floodlights continue to shine on the Tapeta, precision riding and well-timed challenges are set to define an engaging evening of all-weather racing at Wolverhampton.

Ayr racecards 23 February runners competing at Ayr Racecourse

Ayr Racecourse Stages Competitive Six-Race Monday Card as Dubai Days Tops Weights in Feature Chase

There is a steady, workmanlike feel to Monday’s meeting at Ayr Racecourse, where National Hunt racing takes centre stage on 23 February 2026. From 1:50pm through to 4:30pm, a six-race card brings together seasoned chasers, progressive hurdlers and a handful of unexposed types looking to make their mark. With the £11,000 feature adding extra incentive, the afternoon shapes as a competitive and engaging chapter in Ayr’s winter programme.

The opener at 1:50pm, The Join Racing TV Now Handicap Steeple Chase, sees six runners go to post over a demanding 3m 104y. With £9,000 in prize money, this Class 4 staying contest will place the emphasis firmly on stamina and accurate jumping. On Ayr’s galloping track, rhythm and positioning often prove decisive in races of this nature.

Race two at 2:25pm, The Watch On Racing TV Maiden Hurdle Race, offers £10,000 in prize money and brings together six runners over 2m 3f 191y. As a maiden hurdle, it provides a valuable platform for lightly raced horses seeking their first success over obstacles. With scope for improvement among the field, the contest could produce a performance of promise for the weeks ahead.

The feature at 3:00pm, The Every Race Live On Racing TV Handicap Steeple Chase, is the most valuable contest on the card, carrying £11,000 in prize money. Seven runners are set to line up over 2m 4f 173y in this competitive Class 4 handicap. Veteran campaigner Dubai Days (IRE) heads the weights with a BHA rating of 122 and carries 12st 2lbs for trainer N. W. Alexander, bringing a wealth of experience as a 12-year-old. Close behind in the ratings is Big John Wayne (IRE), an eight-year-old from the Lucinda Russell & Michael Scudamore yard, rated 117 and set to carry 11st 11lbs, while Jaccours (FR) represents the in-form Olly Murphy stable off a mark of 115.

Further depth is added by One Mill Harbour (FR), trained by James Moffatt and rated 114, alongside Dance Thief (IRE) for R. Mike Smith, who arrives with consistent recent form figures and a rating of 109. Lighter weights include Tommy Combats (IRE), rated 105 for Martin Todhunter, and Don Occhetti (IRE) from the William Young Jnr yard, who carries 10st 8lbs off a mark of 100. With proven chasers, seasoned stayers and in-form contenders all engaged, the feature promises a tactically intriguing and closely fought contest at Ayr.

At 3:30pm, five runners contest The 100% RacingTV Profits Back To Racing Novices’ Hurdle Race, another Class 4 event. Though prize money details are unconfirmed, the smaller field size could lend itself to a steadily run tactical affair. Novice hurdles at this stage of the season frequently highlight progressive types preparing for bigger spring assignments.

Race five at 4:00pm, The Join Racing TV Now Handicap Hurdle Race, features the largest field of the afternoon with 11 runners competing for £9,000. Run over 2m 4f 204y, this Class 4 handicap hurdle promises to be fiercely competitive, with depth in numbers likely to create a strong pace and an exciting finish.

The card concludes at 4:30pm with The Watch On Racing TV National Hunt Flat Race, a Class 5 bumper worth £4,000. Five runners face the starter over 2m 54y in a contest designed to showcase future jumping prospects. Such races often provide an early glimpse of young horses destined for hurdles or fences next season.

With competitive field sizes and a mix of experience and emerging talent, Ayr’s Monday fixture promises an engaging afternoon of winter jump racing in Scotland.

Tokyo Race Results 22 February race action at Tokyo Racecourse

Costa Nova Claims February Stakes as Tokyo Stages 12-Race Sunday Card

The Japan Racing Association’s metropolitan circuit hosted a comprehensive 12-race programme at Tokyo Racecourse on Sunday, 22 February, presenting a carefully tiered schedule that ranged from developing contests to elite-level competition. The meeting demonstrated the calibre of both emerging performers and established Grade 1 contenders across a methodically conducted afternoon.

The opening contest set an assured tone for the afternoon, as ATOMIC BREATH secured Race 1 in 1:26.2. Ridden by Rachel King, trained by Yukihiro Kato and owned by Aegis Co. Ltd., the winner travelled prominently before quickening with control inside the final furlong to register a polished success.

Stamina was required in the second event, where BASCULE claimed Race 2 in 2:14.0. Christophe Lemaire partnered the Toru Hayashi-trained runner for Sunday Racing Co. Ltd., maintaining a measured rhythm throughout before asserting decisively in the straight.

A smoothly run third contest culminated in ROSE BOUQUET taking Race 3 in 1:27.6. Takeshi Yokoyama guided the Nobuhiro Suzuki-trained filly, owned by Turf Sport Co. Ltd., producing a balanced effort and an efficient turn of foot when called upon.

Momentum continued into the fourth event, with MEINER GREAT capturing Race 4 in 1:47.7. Under Kiwamu Ogino, for trainer Yuichi Shikato and owner Thoroughbred Club Ruffian Co. Ltd., the winner advanced steadily from midfield and sustained a consistent gallop to the line.

The pace sharpened in the fifth contest as GO LUCKY secured Race 5 in 1:33.2. Christophe Lemaire recorded another victory for trainer Yoichi Kuroiwa and owner Kazumi Yoshida, the gelding settling comfortably before accelerating with precision in the closing stages.

Consistency was again evident in the sixth race, where CHANSON D’OR claimed Race 6 in 1:46.1. Lemaire completed a treble for trainer Takeshi Okumura and owner Carrot Farm Co. Ltd., delivering a tactically astute ride that balanced patience with timely progress.

Middle-distance emphasis defined the seventh event, and ACADEMIA prevailed in Race 7 with a time of 2:11.9. Ryusei Sakai rode for trainer Haruki Sugiyama and owner Hideko Kondo, conserving energy early before lengthening stride effectively in the final stages.

Speed returned to prominence in the eighth contest, where PIKO ROSE secured Race 8 in 1:20.9. Kosei Miura partnered the Daishi Ito-trained runner for owner Takafumi Ishibe, establishing a forward position and sustaining momentum to repel challengers.

Race 9 featured Listed company, as LUCKY KID captured the Listed Hyacinth Stakes in 1:36.7. Mirai Iwata rode for trainer Yukihiro Kato and owner Godolphin, positioning the colt prominently before asserting superiority in the closing stages.

Prestige framed the tenth contest, The Japan Cup 2025 Longines World’s Best Race Award Memorial, where SAKURA FARREL claimed Race 10 in 1:58.6. Rachel King recorded her second success of the meeting for trainer Noriyuki Hori and owner Sakura Commerce Co. Ltd., delivering a fluent and controlled performance from a prominent position.

The principal championship event of the afternoon, the Grade 1 February Stakes, concluded with COSTA NOVA taking Race 11 in 1:35.4. Christophe Lemaire partnered the Tetsuya Kimura-trained runner for owner Katsumi Yoshida, asserting class in the decisive stages of the contest to secure a high-calibre victory.

The programme concluded with the Oshima Tokubetsu, where ASK I’LL BE THERE captured Race 12 in 1:24.2. Ryusei Sakai guided the Yoshito Yahagi-trained runner for Hirosaki Toshihiro HD Co. Ltd., advancing purposefully in the straight to bring the afternoon to a controlled conclusion.

The Tokyo Race Results 22 February highlighted the efficiency of established jockey-trainer combinations and reaffirmed the competitive standard synonymous with racing at the capital venue.

Mish Gulfstream Park feature

Mish Turns Back Time in Gulfstream Park Feature for 12th Career Victory

In a performance that blended grit with class, Mish rolled back the years in Sunday’s feature at Gulfstream Park, securing her 12th career success and underlining that experience still counts at the highest level.

The nine-year-old, owned by C2 Racing Stable LLC and trained by Saffie Joseph Jr., was ridden with confidence by Tyler Gaffalione in the six-furlong contest. Facing the much-discussed debut winner Elnajd, Mish produced a decisive move around the turn to settle matters in authoritative fashion.

A Florida-bred daughter of Field Commission, Mish was positioned three-wide down the backstretch before gradually asserting. Once straightened for home, she edged clear and held firm under pressure, stopping the clock in 1:10.66. At the line, she was 1½ lengths in front of the four-year-old Elnajd, who chased gamely but could not bridge the gap.

Joseph was quick to praise his stable stalwart.

“He’s the only 9-year-old we have in the barn, but at nine he’s as sound as ever and as fast as ever,” the trainer said. “You can’t judge a horse by age. You judge them by how they’re doing. When you have class and you’re good, you’re good.”

The victory carried extra resonance given the quality of the opposition. Elnajd, a son of Speightstown representing Shadwell Stable, had created a strong impression on debut and arrived with high expectations. Mish, however, showed the value of seasoning, using tactical speed and strength to repel the younger challenger.

Sunday’s result once again highlighted the depth of sprint talent at Gulfstream Park this winter. Mish’s latest success over six furlongs adds another chapter to a career built on consistency and durability, particularly notable for a horse now in her ninth year of racing.

Behind the leading pair, the remainder of the field trailed without threatening, as Mish’s turn-of-foot entering the bend proved decisive. It was a measured, professional ride from Gaffalione, who allowed the mare to find rhythm early before asking for her effort at precisely the right moment.

The broader weekend at Gulfstream promises further highlights, with a stacked Fountain of Youth Day programme on the horizon. Leading rider Irad Ortiz Jr. is scheduled to partner 13 mounts across the card, including several for prominent trainer Brad Cox, while jockey Dylan Davis is set to make his return from injury.

Yet Sunday belonged to Mish — a veteran who continues to defy the calendar. In a sport that often celebrates youth, her performance served as a timely reminder that resilience and class remain formidable assets.

UDAY winning the Marathon during Al Ain Race Results 22 February

UDAY Stays Strong to Capture Al Ain Marathon Feature

A well-structured ten-race programme unfolded at Al Ain Racecourse on Sunday, 22 February 2026, offering a measured blend of developing contests and established performers across varied distances. The fixture was conducted with clarity and order, culminating in the second leg of the Al Ain Marathon series, where stamina and disciplined pacing proved decisive. Several prominent stables asserted their influence over the course of the afternoon, shaping a card defined by consistency rather than spectacle.

Proceedings opened with SIMOUN securing Race 1 for jockey Ray Dawson and trainer Ibrahim Al Hadhrami, stopping the clock in 2:04.29. The winner travelled with purpose before asserting in the straight, giving the yard an early foothold on the programme. Race 2 followed in similar fashion as SALIM NOUR GRINE delivered a controlled performance under Kieran Shoemark for trainer Doug Watson, recording 2:05.75 after settling into a balanced rhythm throughout.

Race 3, a rated maiden, produced a polished display from QANDIL AW. Silvestre De Sousa positioned the Majed Al Jahoori-trained runner prominently from the outset, and the response in the closing stages was decisive as the time of 1:52.36 confirmed a professional breakthrough success. Ibrahim Al Hadhrami returned to the winner’s enclosure in Race 4 when MUTHABIR, ridden by Abdul Aziz Al Balushi, delivered a measured late effort to score in 1:49.25 after tracking the leaders with patience.

HM CHAMIKHA added another success in Race 5, where Qais Al Busaidi executed restrained tactics for trainer Saeed Al Shamsi. The winner quickened with authority inside the final furlong to record 1:49.51, maintaining composure under pressure. Race 6 saw AR SHAHD provide Ibrahim Al Hadhrami with further reward, Connor Beasley guiding the runner to victory in 1:38.69 after a contest that demanded sustained pace through the middle stages.

Race 7 continued the stable’s productive afternoon as NOSIN AW, again partnered by Ray Dawson, struck in 1:38.45. The performance was built on tactical awareness, conserving energy early before producing a steady, sustained challenge. Sprint honours in Race 8 went to EASY LAP for Saif Al Balushi and trainer Khalifa Al Neyadi, the pair clocking 1:06.64 in a brisk contest where early positioning proved critical.

Silvestre De Sousa completed a double in Race 9 when AAMEER secured victory for Majed Al Jahoori in 1:07.32. The runner showed natural pace from the gates and maintained momentum through the closing stages, underlining the yard’s effective preparation across multiple divisions on the card.

The meeting concluded with the second leg of the Al Ain Marathon series, where UDAY produced a resolute display over the extended trip. Ridden by Adam Al Balushi for trainer Mohammed Al Mahrooqi, the winner completed the journey in 5:01.72. The performance was characterised by stamina and composure, maintaining a consistent tempo before asserting in the latter stages to confirm superiority in the staying ranks.

Collectively, the Al Ain Race Results 22 February highlighted the depth of local training operations, with Ibrahim Al Hadhrami saddling multiple winners and riders Ray Dawson and Silvestre De Sousa each recording doubles. The programme reflected structure, discipline and progressive form lines across a balanced afternoon of racing.

Costa Nova winning the February Stakes at Tokyo Racecourse.

Costa Nova Secures Breeders’ Cup Berth with Heroic February Stakes Win

The Tokyo sun glinted off the dirt on Sunday as a familiar champion reminded the racing world why class is permanent. Katsumi Yoshida’s Costa Nova didn’t just win the February Stakes; he commanded it, successfully defending his crown in a performance defined by patience, grit, and a perfectly timed surge. Under a masterful ride from Christophe Lemaire, the six-year-old son of Lord Kanaloa found an extra gear in the dying strides to deny Wilson Tesoro by a half-length, etching his name further into the history books at Tokyo Racecourse.

A Tactical Masterclass at Tokyo

Before a sprawling crowd of over 58,000 spectators, the atmosphere was electric as the 16-horse field loaded into the gates for the mile-long test. While Sixpence dictated the early fractions along the rail, Lemaire was content to play a waiting game. Settled comfortably in 11th, Costa Nova looked every bit the seasoned professional, tracking the move of Wilson Tesoro through a steady opening half-mile.

As the field swung into the wide Tokyo home straight, the complexion of the race shifted. While the favorites scrambled for racing room, Lemaire angled Costa Nova to the outside, seeking clear air. The response was immediate. The champion accelerated past a wall of tiring horses, setting his sights on Wilson Tesoro. In the final 100 meters, the defender found the lead, crossing the wire in 1:35.4 over a standard surface. The 3-1 favorite, the mare W Heart Bond, could only manage third after a brave effort.

Historical Context and International Aspirations

This victory marks a rare feat in Japanese racing history. By winning the February Stakes for a second consecutive year, Costa Nova joins the elite company of Copano Rickey and Cafe Pharoah as the only horses to defend this prestigious dirt title. It was the eighth career win for the Tetsuya Kimura trainee, whose consistency on this surface has become his trademark.

“I am happy to have won the first Group 1 of this season with Costa Nova,” a beaming Christophe Lemaire told officials after the race. “He broke nicely and we were able to relax during the trip. I had a great response as soon as I shifted him to the outside, and from then on, he was extremely strong up to the wire.“

The implications of this win stretch far beyond Tokyo. As part of the international Challenge Series, Costa Nova has now secured an automatic starting position in the $7 million Longines Breeders’ Cup Classic. He joins an elite early roster for the October showpiece at Keeneland, alongside Pegasus World Cup winner Skippylongstocking and Saudi Cup hero Forever Young. With his entry fees and travel allowances covered, the path to Kentucky is now wide open for the Japanese star.

Plumpton racecards 23 February preview at Plumpton Racecourse

Alto Tops the Weights in Plumpton’s Howden Rural Insurance Feature

A competitive winter jumps fixture awaits at Plumpton Racecourse on Monday, 23 February 2026, with a well-balanced seven-race programme scheduled from 1:30pm through to 4:45pm. The Sussex venue presents a mix of maiden hurdles, staying chases and tightly-knit handicaps, with two Class 4 steeplechases jointly topping the card at £11,000.00 in prize money. From emerging hurdlers to seasoned amateur riders over extended trips, the afternoon promises tactical intrigue around Plumpton’s sharp, undulating track.

The action begins at 1:30pm with The Alfriston Hotel – Have You Visited? Maiden Hurdle Race (Class 4), worth £10,000.00. Seven runners line up over 2m 20y, a trip that places emphasis on pace and accurate jumping. As a maiden contest, this opener offers unexposed types the opportunity to break through, and on Plumpton’s tight circuit, positioning and rhythm will be key factors.

At 2:00pm, the card moves into handicap company with The LGT Wealth Management Handicap Hurdle Race (Class 5). Also staged over 2m 20y and featuring seven runners, this £7,250.00 contest should provide a closely matched affair. With ratings often tightly grouped at this level, small margins could prove decisive in the closing stages.

The highest prize money on the card is shared by Races 3 and 4, both valued at £11,000.00. The 2:35pm feature, The Johnnie Boden Backs Jamie’s Farm Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 4), sees four runners tackle a stamina-sapping 3m 1f 207y. With amateur riders in the saddle, race tactics and measured fractions will be crucial over this extended trip, where jumping fluency often outweighs outright speed.

At 2:35pm, The Johnnie Boden Backs Jamie’s Farm Amateur Jockeys’ Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 4) over 3m 1f 207y brings together a compact but experienced field of four. Among them is Lumi Plugin (GB), a seven-year-old gelding rated 116, who shoulders top weight of 12st 1lbs for the training partnership of Gary & Josh Moore, with Mr Hezekiah March booked to ride. A previous course-and-distance performer, he arrives with solid credentials and could prove a major factor if settling into an early rhythm over this stamina-testing trip.

Veteran campaigner Enjoy d’Allen (FR), now 12, represents the Neil King yard under Miss Lily Jones and competes off a mark of 113, while Georges Saint (FR), trained by Venetia Williams and partnered by Miss Lucy Turner, brings consistent form into the contest off 112. Completing the line-up is Morfee (IRE) from the Seamus Mullins stable, another course-and-distance performer rated 112 and set to be ridden by Mr Simon Elliott. With experience and staying power spread evenly across the quartet, this £11,000 feature could hinge on precise jumping and well-judged amateur tactics in the closing stages.

At 3:15pm, The Howden Rural Insurance Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 4), worth £11,000.00, sees five runners tackle 2m 1f 32y in what looks a tightly matched handicap. Top weight Alto (FR), a nine-year-old rated 109, carries 12st 0lbs for the Chris Gordon yard, with Freddie Gordon taking the ride. A previous course-and-distance performer, he brings solid Plumpton form into the race and could prove hard to peg back if dictating matters from the front around this sharp circuit.

Close behind in the ratings is Godot (IRE) (107), representing Andy Irvine and partnered by Caoilin Quinn, while Known Warrior (FR), a six-year-old trained by Richard Bandey, lines up off 96 with Harry Bannister booked. Sanitiser (GB) (95) runs for the Gary & Josh Moore team under Freddie Mitchell, and Kitsilano (IRE) (94), trained by David Bridgwater and ridden by Tom Cannon, completes the field. Recent renewals suggest versatility in ground conditions is key, with past winners such as Time To Bite (2024) and Doyannie (2023) scoring on varying surfaces, indicating adaptability and fluent jumping will be decisive factors in this competitive Class 4 chase.

The remaining hurdlers take centre stage at 3:45pm in The Jolly Sportsman Supports Jamie’s Farm Novices’ Limited Handicap Hurdle Race (Class 5). With nine runners , the largest field of the afternoon ,set to contest 3m 1f 72y, stamina and resilience will be under scrutiny. This novices’ handicap provides progressive types with the opportunity to step forward over a demanding trip.

At 4:15pm, The Sky Sports Racing Supports Jamie’s Farm Handicap Steeple Chase (Class 5) brings five runners together over 2m 3f 199y for £8,000.00. This mid-distance chase blends speed and stamina, and with a small but competitive field, tactical positioning could once again prove pivotal.

The card concludes at 4:45pm with The oldgoldracing.com Supports Jamie’s Farm Mares’ Handicap Hurdle Race (Class 5). Eight mares line up over 2m 4f 176y for £7,250.00, closing the afternoon with what looks like an open contest. The extended trip will test staying ability, and as the light begins to fade, endurance and accurate hurdling may separate the field.

With a blend of competitive handicaps, two £11,000 Class 4 chases, and a stamina-testing novice hurdle attracting the day’s biggest field, Plumpton’s Monday meeting shapes up as a compelling midweek National Hunt fixture.
