Tip for this race
All today's tips ›Sahm Naif tops our figures at Southwell, and in a modest Class 6 contest over twelve furlongs that narrow edge is enough to make him the one to beat. Cavalry Call is only a pound behind and Prince Achille two pounds adrift, so this looks tight at the top, while Cosmic Man is a little further back but still firmly in the picture. With the front trio so closely matched, confidence is low, but Sahm Naif's slight superiority on our numbers gets him the nod. Sahm Naif is our selection.

Jedd O'Keeffe 1/6
Prince Achille arrives in decent heart after a third last time out, a fourth two starts back and a third three starts back, and he has run over today's trip and going before on a fresh-enough 22-day break. Yet to win in his last six, he's the main risk, though, carrying 138 lb.

Clipsham Noble arrives fresh from a last-time-out win just 14 days ago, with two wins in his last six starts and experience of today's trip and going. However, carrying 136 lb off an official mark of 57, and rated a notch below that by us at 55, he may find this a tight call.

David Flood 0/4
Man Is King has been consistent without threatening lately, finishing fifth last time out and a sixth the start before, with his only win five starts back, and he returns after 115 days off. He has run over today's trip and going, but 135 lb and a rating of 54 ranking seventh of 11 limit his appeal.

Daniel Muscutt
James Horton 1/6
Sahm Naif has run over today's trip and on this going, and he arrives fresh after 29 days off, with a win six starts back and a fourth last time out. Our top-rated runner, he is a fair 2 lb clear of his official mark of 59, though a lack of recent wins is the one concern.

Lawrence Mullaney 0/7
Cosmic Man was a third two starts back and again three starts back, so he has been in the frame lately, and he has run over today's trip and going before, returning fresh after 22 days. The main risk is an eighth last time out, and he is yet to win in his last six starts.

Billy Loughnane
Tony Carroll 2/42
Masego arrives in sound form, runner-up last time out and a third two starts back, having run over today's trip and going before, but he has won just once in his last six and a yard-light 130 lb burden plus a stable struggling at 1/34 temper the case. Our rating of 52 ranks him eighth of 11.

Patrick Morris 2/12
Winless in his last six, Someone's Wish was sixth last time out, 19 days ago, and is hard to fancy with a ninth and an unplaced run among his recent efforts. He has run over today's trip and going, and a second four starts back is the best of it, but he's ranked ninth of 11 on our figures.

Cavalry Call arrives in better nick after a third last time out just two days ago, and he has run over today's trip and going before, while our rating of 60 ranks him second of 11 off an official mark of 47. The risk is a quick turnaround, with an eighth two starts back and nothing better in the run before.

Cameclose has a second three starts back to point to and has run over today's trip and going, but he's finished ninth last time out, 72 days ago, and is winless in his last six. A yard in poor form (1/34) adds to the doubts, though our rating of 55 sits above his official 48.

Emerald Reine has finished seventh, ninth, seventh and seventh in her last four starts, and she returns after 78 days off, so she is hard to fancy. Her only pluses are that she has run over today's trip and runs off a lowly 47, with our figures ranking her last of eleven.

Make It Up is winless in his last six and was beaten into ninth last time, so he is hard to fancy, though a third two starts back and a second four starts back show he can reach the frame. He has run over today's trip and going, and is back quickly after 12 days, but our rating of 45 ranks him tenth of eleven.
