Southwell AW Code Breaker

My attempt to Crack The AW Code At Southwell on this evening's bumper nine race card that features eight handicaps of various descriptions.

❖ Jockeys ❖ This evening I'll be studying the Billy Loughnane 𝕏 formlines ~ he has eight rides.

❖ Draw Bias ❖ The draw bias at Southwell is non existent. Back who you like wherever they're drawn. If backing any front runners, pay close attention to whether you think they have the ability to actually get home up the slightly uphill 1.5f finish.

Southwell Betting Analysis

6:30 Southwell ❖ 6f C4 Hcp ❖ Betsen (17/2) is in tiptop form at present.

Conclusion: I see no reason why Betsen cannot win this outright under Loughnane from trap two. In fact, I believe I could arguable make a good case for him to be atleast joint fav with Vantheman.


6:30 South ~ Win Bet: 17/2 Betsen (3rd 13/2)

8:30 Southwell ❖ 7f C4 Hcp ❖ Metaverse (14/1) is a fair way overpriced imo.

Conclusion: Could well take this under Loughnane. Patchy enough formwise for a horse of with a mark of 83. However, on his day, is capable of winning a C4 hcp no problem. First time at Southwell, he could run away with this if all falls right for him from stall one.


8:30 South ~ Win Bet: 14/1 Metaverse (3rd 14/1)
