Thursday Racing Tips: Timeform's two at Hamilton before Lingfield nap

15:21, Hamilton - Race set up for Goldie eye-catcher

6 (7)

Pearl Eye

• J: Paul Mulrennan
• T: Jim Goldie
• F: 498700-34

• SBK 16/5
• EXC 5

Timeform 'Horse In Focus' Pearl Eye has made a promising start for Jim Goldie and is fancied to get off the mark for the yard now refitted with headgear; the stiff finish and greater test of stamina will play to his strengths, too.  

The former Darryll Holland/Gay Kelleway inmate has suffered defeat in two starts since his latest stable switch, but is now 12 lb his last winning mark and as long as Highland Olly sets a decent tempo he should prove hard to beat. 

16:51, Hamilton - Gallus Norman to continue strong form

6 (6)

Gallus Norman

• J: Lauren Young
• T: Jim Goldie
• F: 785-21

• SBK 15/8
• EXC 2.9

Another Goldie 'Horse In Focus', Gallus Norman, looks the one to beat here.  

The lightly-raced seven-year-old seems to be making up for lost time judged on his impressive Musselburgh success a fortnight ago.  

A 6 lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from following up as it's not hard to envisage him progressing well from this, his dam having made giant strides once allowed to tackle 1½m+ (culminating in a Cesarewitch second). 

17:10, Lingfield - Wide stall no barrier to Southwell eye-catcher 

11 (11)

Adelaide Bay

• J: Silvestre De Sousa
• T: Jane Chapple-Hyam
• F: 07-690882

• SBK 3/1
• EXC 1000

'Horse In Focus' Adelaide Bay has a less-than-ideal draw to overcome but confirmed he's one to be interested in when second behind the reopposing Fort Augustus at Southwell recently, finishing well having been left with too much do.  

The Jane Chapple-Hyam-trained four-year-old was gambled on back with a stable he recorded three wins for in 2025 and really should have won on his first outing since leaving Craig Lidster after 10 weeks off. 

Despite being 2 lb higher here, he's evidently back down to a very handy mark and - with Twitch, Oberon Hill, Dashing Donkey likely to set a good pace - he should gain compensation with Silvestre De Sousa taking over in the saddle.
