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)

Newcastle AW Code Breaker

Two AW meetings today. The Newcastle evening meeting starts at 4:25. I will attempt to Crack The All Weather Code At Newcastle in as few words as possible.

❖ Jockeys ❖ For this evening's meeting I will be focusing on Jason Hart 𝕏 who rides the Newcastle AW track very well. He has three rides.

❖ Trainer ❖ No particular trainer catches my eye

❖ Draw Bias ❖ The draw bias at Newcastle is non existent, especially on the straight course, so nothing to see there.

• 14 Feb 2026 4:55 Newcastle Handicap 6f Ben Haslam RAJSTAR ✅
• 14 Feb 2026 5:55 Newcastle Handicap 1m Ivan Furtado HELMSLEY

Newcastle Betting Analysis

4:55 Newcastle ❖ 6f C6 Hcp ❖ Rajstar (15/2) won well enough over the straight 6 here at Newcastle and can go in again despite the 5lb raise in the weights.

4:55 Newc ~ Win Bet: 15/2 Rajstar (Unp 7/1)

Lingfield AW Code Breaker

Today's first AW meeting comes from Lingfield. An seven race card with six handicaps. I will attempt to Crack The Lingfield All Weather code in as few words as possible.

❖ Jockeys ❖ The jockey I am concentrating on today is the Irishman Ed Greatrex 𝕏. He rides Lingfield's quirky track very well. He has two rides this afternoon.

❖ Trainers ❖ No particular trainer catches my eye for today's afternoon meeting.

❖ Draw Bias ❖ No draw bias at Lingfield worthy of note. You want decent jockeys at Lingfield, not an inside or outside draw etc.

❖ Bet Selection Considerations ❖

• ❖ Check out the two Greatrex ridden horses very closely.
• ❖ Also beware anything that has been thrown into a race with a clear and obvious advantage.

• 14 Feb 2026 3:10 Lingfield Handicap 7f Michael Herrington LEGAL REFORM ✅
• 14 Feb 2026 3:45 Lingfield Handicap 1m Jamie Osborne ANGRY ANT

Lingfield Betting Analysis

3:10 Lingfield ❖ 7f C2 Hcp ❖ Legal Reform (15/2) has been underrated by the bokies I feel. I make him joint fav. I think he's in the form of his racing career and could well nick this under Greatrex who has ridden him once and won.

3:10 Lingfield ~ Win Bet: 15/2 Legal Reform (4th 6/1)

Wolverhampton AW Code Breaker

I will be trying to Crack The Wolverhampton AW code in as few words as possible. This afternoon's 7 race card features 4 handicaps, 2 classifieds and a 3yo fillies novice stakes.

❖ Jockeys ❖ The jockey I am looking to this evening has to be Hector Crouch, who has a 25% strike rate here this season and the last, so he's consistently in the money. He has four rides.

❖ Draw Bias ❖ Low draw is essential at Wolverhampton, pretty much every distance, one way or another.

❖ Bet Selection Considerations ❖

• ❖ Give a close up look on form to anything Hector Crouch is on.
• ❖ Also beware anything that has been thrown into a race with a clear and obvious advantage.

• 13 Feb 2026 5:45 Wolverhampton Classified Stakes 1m 1f Richard Price LHEBAYEB ✅
• 13 Feb 2026 6:15 Wolverhampton Novice Fillies Stakes 7f George Boughey ARTANIS
• 13 Feb 2026 6:45 Wolverhampton Handicap 7f Dr Richard Newland DIAMONDONTHEHILL
• 13 Feb 2026 7:15 Wolverhampton Handicap 7f Ed Walker KARISMA'S ANGEL

Wolverhampton Betting Analysis

5:45 Wolverhampton ❖ 1m 1f Classified ❖ Lhebayeb (5/1) missed the break last time and ran on quite well. Unusual, because he's usually prominent. They may have stumbled upon a new style of running with the horse. If Crouch holds him up, he might just run them down. He could also win the other way. Interesting.

5:45 Wolver ~ Win Bet: 5/1 Lhebayeb (Unp 9/2)

Kempton AW Code Breaker

Kempton racing this evening is an eight race card. 5 races are handicaps of varying types. I will attempt to Crack The Kempton Park All Weather code in as few words as possible.

❖ Jockeys ❖ I will be looking to Rossa Ryan 𝕏 ~ who has three rides on the card.

❖ Draw Bias ❖ Draw considerations come into play sharply at Kempton. I will be looking for a low draw (1~5) in all races up to a mile.

❖ Bet Selection Considerations ❖

• ❖ If anything Rossa Ryan is riding is well drawn, give it a very close look on form.
• ❖ Also beware anything that has been thrown into a race with a clear and obvious advantage.

• 11 Feb 2026 8:10 Kempton Handicap 7f Martin Dunne PORTORO

Kempton Betting Analysis

7:40 Kempton ❖ 11f C5 Handicap ❖ Connie Moon (5/1) will very likely break her 8 race maiden tag this evening. I thought she was somewaht unlucky last time out with how the race panned out. I expect things to go her way in what strikes me as an easier race.

7:40 Kempton ~ Win Bet: 5/1 Connie Moon (Unplaced 4/1)
