Velvet Red
VELVET RED proved a totally different proposition when making a winning handicap bow over C&D on return last month, coming home strongly, and looks capable of defying a 5 lb rise. Havachoc arrives in the form of his life so rates the main threat ahead of The Corporate Guy, who made much more of an impact off his reduced mark at Wolverhampton.

Left maiden form well behind after 5 months off when making a winning handicap debut over C&D 4 weeks ago, coming home with a flourish once getting the hang of things. That race starting to work out and she may well have more to come for her promising yard, so leading contender up 5 lb.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell1m 3f 23yStandardFlat1/11Chelmsford City1mStandardFlat10/12Nottingham1m 75yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat8/9Yarmouth1m 3yGood (Good to Soft in places)Flat6/8- 7(9)Hackney DiamondsJ: Edward GreatrexT: Ian Williams7-41234Age 411/211/26/1

C&D winner in December and won again here (12f) following month. However, found run of good form coming to a halt when fourth of 8 at Wolverhampton (10/3) 12 days ago, looking rather laboured.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton1m 4f 51yStandardFlat4/8Southwell1m 3f 23yStandardFlat3/7Wolverhampton1m 4f 51yStandardFlat2/6Southwell1m 4f 14yStandardFlat1/9Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat4/9- 6(7)Arth's GoldJ: Alec VoikhanskyT: Richard Hannon563-645Age 46/17/113/2

Still a maiden but responded well to first-time cheekpieces when third over C&D in December.

Dominated a classified race at Wolverhampton last month before following up back in a handicap here over 12f. Completed hat-trick at Newcastle (7/2) with a lot to spare under this rider 2 weeks ago so must be respected despite being 4 lb higher in better race.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle1m 4f 98yStandardFlat1/9Southwell1m 4f 14yStandardFlat1/11Wolverhampton1m 4f 51yStandardFlat1/8Wolverhampton1m 5f 219yStandardFlat6/10Wolverhampton1m 4f 51yStandardFlat9/11- 9(10)The Corporate GuyJ: Dylan HoganT: Jack Jones4860-63Age 48/18/115/2

Placed a couple of times for Roger Varian. Not at that level either start for this yard after a break but had excuses (caught wide and raced freely at Wolverhampton last time).

Gained another win at Newcastle (last 5 wins have come there) in November and went close to following up there later that month. Threatening to come good again soon judged on latest effort there but hasn't fully fired in 2 previous visits to Southwell.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle1m 2f 42yStandard / SlowFlat5/9Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat4/11Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat4/11Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat2/8Newcastle1m 2f 42yStandardFlat1/13- 3(8)Chicago StormJ: Millie WonnacottT: Daisy Hitchins01/35-4Age 716/116/114/1

Hard to win with but stepped up markedly on stable debut when fourth of 12 in a handicap at Wolverhampton (16/1) 26 days ago, doing too much too soon.

Lightly-raced maiden for Karl Burke. Well held in 2 runs here last winter and missed rest of 2025 (subsequently sold for 10,000 gns).
