Larkhill hosts its sixth scheduled meeting when the South and West Wilts holds their fixture on Sunday. Since the last meeting the fences have all been moved to the unused inner of the course, the bends have been moved and the ring roller has been employed, The current going is good to soft and there is rain forecast before Sunday to maintain. The South and West Wilts wish to thank their existing sponsors for their continuing support and for the new sponsorship of the Jockey Club for Race 5 and Maclachlan Solicitors for the final race.
Racing starts at 12 noon with a six race card and early bird tickets for £15 up to 6.00pm on 28th February and £20 on the gate can be obtained from GB pointing.co.uk with under 16s free. There will be food and drink outlets available, trade stands to browse and the bookmakers to have a bet with.
The PPORA Conditions race.. Highstakesplayer was runner up for his rider Ivor Herbert on his last outing whereas his brother Milo’s mount Yippee Ki Yay was runner up at Sheriff Hutton. There will not be much between them with slight preference given to Yippee Ki Yay. Hidden Heroics won his first two race for his Novice rider and was not disgraced when fourth at the last meeting. Tara Storm brings good form for his owner/rider Eve Hobbs but he missed last season and may need this race. Boys Will Be Boys is probably the best chance of a local winner and was a good third in January and is an each way choice.
The Open Maiden. . Tom Lacey won both divisions of a similar race at the last meeting and his representative Seven Kites should be noted. Chris Barber has the 5-year-old Idaho gelding Hang Out whereas former NH jockey Max Kendrick has another Idaho gelding in the form of I’ve Got a Friend entered. Of those with form Lime Burner was a good second on debut whereas Breathless Bishop trained and ridden by Hugo Hunt was third on his seasonal outing. With his weight advantage Seven Kites will be expected to make a winning debut.
The Mixed Open . This should go to the ultimate course specialist in Grace A Vous Enki who will be seeking his eleventh consecutive win at the track. He has looked in fabulous form this season with his win in the Coronation Gold Cup his best performance to date. It is very hard to see him being beaten but no doubt there will be some of the other ten entries who will try. Sam Loxton has entered both Duc de Bourbon and Histrionic and his chosen representative will certainly have place possibilities with the last named already successful on the course this season. Dalamoi was narrowly beaten at Charing at the end of January with Crawter being pulled up and must have a chance. Crawter trained within sight of the course has yet to repeat his excellent form from last season but a return to Larkhill might bring about a change and he is selected to chase home Grace A Vous Enki
The Restricted race. This looks to be between Woodstock Octo an impressive winner at the last meeting , Carrillo another winner at the course this season and third on his last outing and Clonagoose the winner of two races this season at Wadebridge for trainer Emma Summersby. Dorset Dazzler has won two races at Larkhill and Easy Rider has also captured two races this term. Woodstock Octo is held in high regard by his trainer Josh Newman and is the selection .
The Jockey Club Mares Maiden . This race may be another race that is won by a Tom Lacey representative. Madam to You is a 4 year old filly by Poet’s Word who is a half sister to The Lord Maid already the winner of three hurdles for Tom so she has a good pedigree. Ed Walker has the
unraced Glancing Past for owner Julian Selby out of Miss Gotaway. She was successful in nine point to point races so if she has passed on some of her ability she ought to be competitive. Walkingtheline has not shown much in two races so far and this ex-Tom Lacey mare now with Chris Barber will need to step up to . challenge the two mentioned above. Madam to You is the choice.
The Flat race over two miles. . Ruling Planet was second on his debut for Tim Vaughan in a similar race and is likely to have come on for that run. Wise Garden is trained by Gina Andrews and was third on her debut. There is very little other form to review so it is best to inspect the runners in the paddock. Cherry Lane trained by Josh Newman, Down Below Decks trained by Leslie Jefford for Tom Malone, Oxo Called trained by Tom Scidamore and Lunar Tricks trained by Michael Kehoe are four to consider. Ruling Planet is the tentative tip.
