15:15 - Sunshine Soul -
3/1
15:50 - Rusheen Boy -
6/1

13:38 - Legal Reform - 8/1

LEGAL REFORM has strong each-way claims when contesting the feature Class 4 11-runner 7f Handicap at Southwell on Wednesday afternoon (13:38), representing Michael Herrington with David Probert renewing a 1-1 association in the saddle.

Herrington went 2-9 (22%) in the past 14 days, and is 35-309 (11%) with his runners on this course. Probert is 5-26 (19%) when riding for the Lincolnshire yard.

The eight-year-old arrives in prime form, having won five and reached second or third in another five of his 16 starts on the AW.

All of his seven career victories have come over this specialist 7f trip, including three course-and-distance successes.

The selection goes well at this time of year and has won three times in this grade.

Legal Reform won a similar contest at this venue from a mark of 76 just under a fortnight ago. He achieved a Racing Post Rating (RPR) of 85 on that occasion, and he remains on a winning mark of 79 despite the subsequent 3lb rise. 

The Lawman gelding may also have a tactical advantage in this contest, given his prominent running style from a fair draw, and a reproduction of his latest effort would put him right in the mix.

15:15 - Sunshine Soul - 3/1

SUNSHINE SOUL has strong form claims in the 11-runner Class 5 6f Fillies' Novice Stakes (15:15), representing the notable trainer and jockey combination of George Boughey and Billy Loughnane.

Boughey went 4-16 (25%) in the past fortnight and is 34-157 (22%) with his runners on this course. 'The Kid' Loughnane is already a remarkable 76-408 (19%) when riding for the Newmarket trainer's yard.

The three-year-old daughter of Mehmas is officially rated 79, having achieved RPRs of 75, 75, 74 in three of her four starts.

On her debut over 1f shorter at Nottingham in June, she finished a keeping on two-length second behind Leovanni on quick ground. The winner is now rated 104.

Sunshine Soul's second over this 6f trip at Pontefract in June is another solid effort and suggests that, following a break, she is capable of building strongly on her close fourth of 11 over the minimum trip on her AW debut on this course in August.

15:50 - Rusheen Boy - 6/1

Finally, RUSHEEN BOY has decent each-way claims from a favourable low draw given his prominent running style in the nine-runner Class 6 6f Handicap (15:50).

The four-year-old has already won twice over this course-and-distance, registering his personal best RPR of 70 when second on another occasion over this course-and-distance at around this time last year.

He features off an exploitable mark of 63, having produced an encouraging front-running display when weakening into second over 7f at Kempton 28 days ago.

The Coach House gelding is considered capable of going one place better, back down in trip.
