Latest win at Beverley in May. Good neck second of 6 to Mystical Maria in handicap at Redcar (10f, good, 9/4) 12 days ago. 1 lb nudge for that near-miss is fair enough, but AW record stands at 0-7.

12/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Chelmsford City (10f) 14 days ago and others make more appeal on this occasion.

2/1, won 6-runner handicap at Redcar (10f, good) 12 days ago by neck from the re-opposing Princess Niyla (1 lb pull). Remains on a workable mark up 2 lb and will surely have a say if able to back that up back on AW.

Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2 and hooded for 1st time, excellent second of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (10f, good) 19 days ago. Probably wouldn't need to find too much improvement in order to play a leading role here.

Temperamental sort. 3 wins from 9 runs this year. 5/1, won 6-runner handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good to firm) 9 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Out of luck all 6 previous runs on the AW and her winning run may well come to an end in this contest.

Promising individual. Winner at Chelmsford in August. 7/2, good second of 8 in handicap at the same course (10f) 5 days ago. Bold show anticipated with an extra furlong to travel here.

One win from 30 Flat runs. Very good second of 12 in handicap at Leicester (10f, firm, 17/2) 25 days ago, staying on well. Cheekpieces enlisted for this tapeta debut and, though 2 lb 'wrong' at the weights.

Forecasts

Night Tara (5/6), Opera Wave (4/1), Mystical Maria (7/1), Regal Glory (15/2), Princess Niyla (14/1), Bay Dream Believer (14/1), Princess Amber (40/1)

13:50 Southwell - 4 September 2025 - Racecard - Horse Racing - Sporting Life

It's unlikely that we have seen the best of NIGHT TARA, who built on her narrow handicap debut success at Chelmsford when finding just one too good back there on Saturday. She gets the nod ahead of another lightly-raced 3-y-o in Opera Wave, while Mystical Maria is taken to reverse recent Redcar placings with Princess Niyla and also take a hand in the finish.
