R P Mcmurphy
R P MCMURPHY is steadily going the right way, gaining a second C&D success 32 days ago. Value for more than the bare margin that day, this likeable type can defy a 6 lb rise. Antiquity ran one of his better races having crucially broken on terms when second at Lingfield 13 days ago and is a player if able to replicate that performance, whilst Age of Time and Al Hofzan are others commanding a second look.

Improving 4-y-o who has both career wins over C&D, value for extra 32 days ago having made a big move into contention out wide (runner-up won next time). Up 6 lb but will continue to give a good account.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat1/11Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat3/9Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat3/11Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat3/10Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat1/13- 7(5)Age Of TimeJ: Ryan KavanaghT: Ian Williams178-842Age 510/311/43/1

Twice a winner at this course including over C&D and he bettered recent efforts (best effort for present yard) when second of 9 in handicap at Kempton (1m) 9 days ago. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces and possibilities with a repeat from unchanged mark.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosKempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat2/9Chelmsford City1m 2fStandardFlat4/5Kempton Park1m 2f 219yStandard / SlowFlat8/12Southwell1m 3f 23yStandardFlat8/11Lingfield Park1m 4fStandardFlat7/11- 4(1)King Of SpeedJ: Ethan TindallT: Mark Loughnane45751-3Age 75/15/111/2

Added another C&D success to his tally from 2 lb lower in December before a good third of 9 in handicap back over C&D last month, a wide passage not aiding his cause. Well drawn on this occasion and he's a definite each-way player.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat3/9Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat1/12Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat5/13Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat7/9Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat5/12- 3(4)AntiquityJ: Conor WhiteleyT: Jamie Osborne8459-92Age 411/211/26/1

Has found winning difficult since back-to-back handicap successes in spring 2025. However, ran one of his better races this AW season having started better when second of 12 in handicap at Lingfield Park (1m) 13 days ago. Task is to back that up.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosLingfield Park1m 1yStandardFlat2/12Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat9/10Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat9/12Kempton Park1mStandard / SlowFlat5/12Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat4/9- 2(3)KameelJ: Taryn LangleyT: Jessica Macey075948-Age 410/110/111/1

Successful on first 2 starts for John Butler last winter but not progressed subsequently, including in 4 starts on turf/AW for present stable last summer. Near four-month break needs to have had positive effect.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosNewcastle1m 5yStandardFlat8/8Newcastle7f 14yStandardFlat4/9Southwell1m 13yStandardFlat9/11Haydock Park1m 37yGood (Good to Firm in places)Flat5/9Newcastle1m 5yStandardFlat7/14- 1(7)Al HofzanJ: Harry VigorsT: Georgina Nicholls623-30Age 414/111/112/1

Continued theme of race-by race progress when third of 7 on handicap debut at this course (7f) in early January. Ran no sort of race when tenth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (1m) next time however, but it's far too soon to be writing him off and he should stay this far.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosSouthwell1m 13yStandardFlat10/12Wolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat3/7Wolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat3/5Chelmsford City7fStandardFlat2/5Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat6/12- 8(8)Arlecchino's RexJ: Rose DawesT: Mark Usher6609-34Age 420/120/118/1

Sole success came at this course (7.1f) in November 2024. Efforts distinctly mixed since and whilst not disgraced when fourth of 10 in a C&D classified event (11/4 fav) 14 days ago that may well be his level nowadays.DateCourseDistGoingTypePosWolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat4/10Wolverhampton1m 142yStandardFlat3/11Lingfield Park7f 1yStandardFlat9/12Wolverhampton7f 36yStandardFlat11/12Kempton Park7fStandard / SlowFlat6/14- 5(2)Poetic ForceJ: Myla CoppinsT: Tony Carroll235-456Age 1222/118/120/1

Veteran who has run to a similar level all 3 starts since returning from a short break this winter, latterly when sixth of 9 in handicap here (9.5f) 11 days ago, weakening final 1f.
