1	1 1st (1) (9/2 -140%) Numero Vingt		4.5 9/2(-140%)																															(1) Numero Vingt 9/2, Out-kicked but had a good trip and improved from his debut after a break when winning a maiden at Chelmsford by a nose last time; trainer in form; effective at 6f and typically has the good attitude of his sire's progeny, with a bit more to come. Gelded after 2yo debut and improved to win on AW 13 days ago (dead-heat); penalty to defy.
2	5 2nd (5) (1/1 +20%) Moonshine		1 1/1(+20%)																															(5) Moonshine 1/1, Built on her debut run, though the market expected more, when second beaten 2 1/4l in a maiden at Haydock latest; just about sets the form standard and gets weight from main rival; fair claims back from break with drop in trip no issue. Fine 3rd on Newbury debut; backward step when 2-5f at Haydock; debut sets clear standard.
3	6 3rd (6) (22/1 -175%) Mayflyer		22 22/1(-175%)																															(6) Mayflyer 22/1, Improved on her second start despite looking as though she would need further when fourth, beaten 3l in a novice at Wolverhampton latest; may want 7f but is open to further improvement. Second run was better than her debut; hood left off this time; can do better.
4	3 4th (3) (15/2 +0%) Southern Warrior		7.5 15/2(+0%)																															(3) Southern Warrior 15/2, Improved from his debut when stepped up in trip, beaten 5l in a novice at Southwell last time; off a short break; effective at 5/6f and probably a little more to come. Clear promise in two Southwell runs this winter; more needed to win but he can do better.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/2 +77%) Staniel Cay		2.5 5/2(+77%)																															(4) Staniel Cay 5/2, Built slightly on his debut when fourth, beaten 7l in a maiden at Catterick latest; should improve but possibly once tackling handicaps. Modest form in two turf runs over 5f last August; this trip more suitable; can do better.
6th	2 6th (2) (150/1 -436%) Molly Marine		150 150/1(-436%)																															(2) Molly Marine 150/1, Similar run to her debut when making plenty of use of her, beaten 5 1/2l in a maiden at Chelmsford last time; probably stays 7f and open to improvement. Down the the field in two Polytrack maidens this year; minor handicaps beckon.

MOONSHINE did little wrong in two outings on turf last term and looks just the sort to improve as a three-year-old. The daughter of Starman is not expected to have any issues with Polytrack and a breakthrough victory could be on the cards. Numero Vingt shared the spoils at Chelmsford, but a penalty does demand more of Archie Watson's charge. With that in mind, a bigger threat may emerge from Southern Warrior, who has shown ability at Southwell.

She has an absence to overcome but MOONSHINE's debut effort makes her the one to beat at today's weights. Staniel Cay is next best.

1	6 1st (6) (11/2 -83%) Little Venice		5.5 11/2(-83%)																															(6) Little Venice 11/2, Never in it from off the pace, ground too deep well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter latest; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on S and G; competitive mark still back on slightly better ground. Close second in November; excuse latest; freshened up since and she can't be ruled out.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/1 +78%) Harthill		9 9/1(+78%)																															(7) Harthill 9/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Hereford latest; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m-2m6f, acts on S and GS; well treated on old form, needs to prove ability remains after layoff. Struggled following an absence; well treated and has had wind surgery; tongue-tie goes on.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/10 +20%) Plantaroma		1.1 11/10(+20%)																															(1) Plantaroma 11/10, Ran to form 6l third in a handicap chase at Huntingdon most recent run; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; usually held up; effective at 2m, acts on GS and G; consistent maiden with good claims back hurdling. Placed nine times including last two (chases); can hang but cheekpieces go on; big player.
4	5 4th (5) (28/1 -250%) Adaay Dancing		28 28/1(-250%)																															(5) Adaay Dancing 28/1, Unseated late when beaten in a handicap hurdle at Catterick latest; effective 1m7f, acts on G; still early days, can do better on quicker ground. Weakening when unseating on stable/h'cap debut 16 days ago; new hood probably no bad thing.
5th	3 5th (3) (11/2 -38%) Shalfa		5.5 11/2(-38%)																															(3) Shalfa 11/2, Improved when second beaten 11l in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton latest; enjoys making it; effective 2m-2m2f on S; may do better in handicaps now. Latest 2nd at Plumpton (2m, soft) arguably makes this opening hurdles mark workable.
6th	4 6th (4) (14/1 +30%) Irisante		14 14/1(+30%)																															(4) Irisante 14/1, Poor start over fences tried in blinkers when well beaten in a handicap chase at Wetherby latest; off a short-break; effective at 2m on Hy and GS; soon back hurdling after a poor chase debut. Down the weights but tailed off last twice; drop in trip/hurdles might help; risky.
2	2 |U| (2) (11/2 +21%) Man Maid		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(2) Man Maid 11/2, Outpaced, improved on final qualifying run, not knocked about when fourth beaten 16l in a novice hurdle at Chepstow latest; effective 2m on S; type to do better handicapping, may get bit further. Latest 4th in Chepstow novice (2m, soft) was a fair effort; could do better now in h'caps.

SHALFA was second, albeit well held, in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton a couple of weeks ago and that effort suggests that she could play a leading role in a race of this nature on her handicap bow. Plantaroma has not been disgraced on her last couple of starts and may benefit from the application of first-time cheekpieces, while Little Venice completes the shortlist.

This might be the day for Plantaroma but handicap hurdle debutante SHALFA gets the nod.

1	2 1st (2) (5/2 -108%) Harry Lowes		2.5 5/2(-108%)																															(2) Harry Lowes 5/2, Keen and short of room when closing, he flattened out and ran to form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Windsor last time. In good form prior, effective over 2m1f-2m5f and acts on GS, he could be nicely treated on these terms. Badly interfered with when favourite for a Class 3 handicap at Windsor last time.
2	1 2nd (1) (8/15 +61%) Count Of Vendome		0.533333 8/15(+61%)																															(1) Count Of Vendome 8/15, Improved for his debut experience when winning a maiden hurdle at Doncaster by 13l last time. May have won here on debut prior to that but for jumping errors. Effective around 2m and acts on S and G, he is progressing and could defy a penalty. Won two bumpers and easily off the mark over hurdles last time at Doncaster.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/2 -22%) The Hawkstonian		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(3) The Hawkstonian 11/2, Improved when benefitting from a stiff test down in trip to win a novice hurdle at Ffos Las by 3/4l last time. Effective over 2m-2m4f on S and G, he is the type to do better now handicapping but remains a threat at this level if getting a decent test. Improved plenty for the fitting of a tongue-tie when a willing winner at Ffos Las (heavy).
4	4 4th (4) (66/1 -65%) Ayyadieh		66 66/1(-65%)																															(4) Ayyadieh 66/1, Outpaced and improved from his debut but looked in need of further when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Leicester last time. Effective at 2m and acts on S, he may want further than 2m in time. Has quite a bit to find on the figures and looks the stable second string.
5th	5 5th (5) (150/1 -127%) Good Boy Griff		150 150/1(-127%)																															(5) Good Boy Griff 150/1, Had too much to do on a modest debut when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Southwell last time. Acts on S and should improve for a stiffer track, but needs to. Struggled in bumpers and same story when 28-1 for recent hurdle debut at Southwell.

The Hawkstonian dug deep to gain a breakthrough victory at Ffos Las and he's still open to improvement. However, COUNT OF VENDOME created a fine impression when romping home at Doncaster and may possess too much speed for Ben Pauling's charge. Harry Lowes has proved a little underwhelming since scoring at Exeter in November, but a return to this sort of distance may help.

Dan Skelton's HARRY LOWES can be excused his defeat in a good Windsor handicap last time, for which he went off favourite.

Effective at 5-6f; back in form and her latest effort has been boosted. Arrives on the back of two second-place finishes here (5f and 6f); tough draw this time.
2	2 2nd (2) (7/2 +42%) Honour Your Dreams		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(2) Honour Your Dreams 7/2, Below form up in class when beaten 6 1/4l in a handicap here last time; trainer in form. Effective at 5/6f; unreliable these days. Drops into his first 0-60 and a big run looks on the cards from a handy draw.
3	10 3rd (10) (9/1 +25%) The Defiant		9 9/1(+25%)																															(10) The Defiant 9/1, Every chance and ran to form when fourth, beaten 5l in a handicap here latest; suited by 5f. Needs to dominate. On the downgrade and, although conditions suit, others have stronger claims.
4	6 4th (6) (7/1 +50%) Coolagh Magic		7 7/1(+50%)																															(6) Coolagh Magic 7/1, Keen and poorly placed in a race dominated from the front when beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap here last time; usually held up. Effective at 5/6f; back below his last winning mark but in moderate form. Not at best last time but earlier reappearance was encouraging; not ruled out off low mark.
5th	9 5th (9) (10/3 +0%) Second Collection		3.333333 10/3(+0%)																															(9) Second Collection 10/3, Overcame trouble and ran to form when landing a handicap by a length off a 4lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; top course trainer. Suited by 5f; in form and still on a competitive mark. Ended losing run at Wolverhampton last week; not discounted despite her 4lb penalty.
6th	4 6th (4) (4/1 +27%) Street Life		4 4/1(+27%)																															(4) Street Life 4/1, Scored by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Southwell in January; ran to form when just flattening out late, finishing fifth beaten 3l off 60 last time and 1lb lower here. Suited by 5f and remains on a workable mark. Two wins and several good runs in defeat this winter; big player back down in class.
7th	1 7th (1) (14/1 +30%) Tomarlo		14 14/1(+30%)																															(1) Tomarlo 14/1, Never competitive on stable debut following a wind op when beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; this is his second run after a wind op. Effective at 5/6f and most consistent in Ireland, he needs to leave that effort behind. Chance on his Irish form in late 2025; low-key stable debut but now drops in class.
8th	5 8th (5) (16/1 -167%) Bluebells Boy		16 16/1(-167%)																															(5) Bluebells Boy 16/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off a 2lb higher mark here last time; effective at 5/6f and seems best on AW. In decent form and the handicapper is relenting. Running well enough this winter to enter calculations; not ideally drawn on stable debut.
9th	3 9th (3) (40/1 -21%) Manhattan Chute		40 40/1(-21%)																															(3) Manhattan Chute 40/1, Scored by a head off this mark here three starts back; effective at 5/6f and may not stay beyond. C&D winner three starts back but struggling since. 50-1 win here last month has been followed by two lacklustre efforts; not a solid option.

SECOND COLLECTION built on a string of consistent efforts to score at Wolverhampton last week and a 4lb penalty doesn't appear likely to stop the 10-year-old from backing that performance up. Desdemona has been knocking on the door at this venue recently and has to enter the reckoning once again. Others for the shortlist include The Defiant and Street Life.

Street Life can go well but things look in place for HONOUR YOUR DREAMS (nap) to record a first win for his new connections.

1	2 1st (2) (5/4 +0%) The Long Point		1.25 5/4(+0%)																															(2) The Long Point 5/4, Travelled well and improved for handling the softer ground when landing a handicap by 4l off a 3lb lower mark at Doncaster last time. Has undergone a wind operation since; effective over 2m4f-3m on soft and good to soft, improving over fences with form franked. On the up over fences and won at Doncaster latest; 3lb nudge looks no bother; big player.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 -43%) West Orchard		5 5/1(-43%)																															(5) West Orchard 5/1, Below form back over fences when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Taunton last time, having been in good form prior. Returns from a short break; effective over 2m3f-3m1f and acts on good to soft and good. Better than he showed last time and back on his last winning mark. Four chase wins, including C&D; flopped over fences last time but contender to bounce back.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/2 +0%) Doctor Midas		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(3) Doctor Midas 9/2, Never travelled when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Ascot last time and now returns from a short break. Effective over 2m6f-3m and acts on good to soft and good; inconsistent but may do better as a chaser. Ran well penultimate start but flopped latest; ground a query but respected on chase debut.
4	1 4th (1) (10/1 +0%) Nambiti		10 10/1(+0%)																															(1) Nambiti 10/1, Outpaced and may have found the ground too quick when pulled up in a handicap chase at Warwick last time. Effective over 2m3f-3m1f and acts with cut; needs more, though the stable has found form of late. Fair fourth on his return in December; pulled up latest and he's not easy to predict.
5th	4 5th (4) (7/2 +56%) Phantom Getaway		3.5 7/2(+56%)																															(4) Phantom Getaway 7/2, Outpaced and below form when pulled up in a handicap chase at Chepstow last time. Effective around 3m with cut in the ground but inconsistent in his performances. Okay seasonal debut but he was pulled up next time; consistency remains an issue.

With most of these having questions to answer, it is hard to oppose THE LONG POINT. Emma Lavelle's gelding had plenty in hand when winning over 3m at Doncaster a month ago and a 3lb rise for that success may underestimate him. West Orchard failed to fire last time but is a player based on his previous second, while similar comments apply to Doctor Midas.

This is likely best left to THE LONG POINT (nap), who's been getting his act together over fences and surely has more to offer.

Effective at 2-2 1/2m and progressive, with a bit more to come over staying distances. Game winner off 4lb lower at Newcastle and can improve for this longer distance.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 +55%) Classic Concorde		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(2) Classic Concorde 9/2, Continued in poor form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow last time. Returns from a short break and has been effective up to 3m, but arrives out of form and with something to prove. On a losing run but ran well enough for a long way in Class 2 handicap at Chepstow latest.
3	3 3rd (3) (8/1 +20%) Manowest		8 8/1(+20%)																															(3) Manowest 8/1, Travelled well but did not find as much as looked likely, though still ran to form when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time. Effective at 3m and was in form when last seen. Maiden winner; able off this sort of mark but may need good ground to show his form.
4	1 4th (1) (13/8 +0%) Mask Of Zorro		1.625 13/8(+0%)																															(1) Mask Of Zorro 13/8, Improved again when stepped up in trip and suited by a positive ride, landing a handicap by a length off a 6lb lower mark at Doncaster last time. Effective from 2m5f to 3m and progressive, with rise in the weights offset by jockey's claim. Has won all the handicaps he's contested, from 2m1f to 3m on all sorts of ground.
5th	5 5th (5) (13/2 +68%) Galassian		6.5 13/2(+68%)																															(5) Galassian 13/2, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time and now wears cheekpieces for the first time, with the trainer in form. Did not take to chasing and needs more to defy this mark back over hurdles. He's struggled back over hurdles following a break and wind surgery.

Having continued on his upward trajectory when completing a four-timer at Doncaster, MASK OF ZORRO is difficult to oppose. Rian Corcoran negates a 6lb rise in the ratings with his 7lb claim and further glory may be imminent. Twistthenightaway made a winning handicap debut at Newcastle and is the obvious danger, although an improved performance from the down-in-class Classic Concorde wouldn't come as a surprise.

With the in-form Rian Corcoran claiming 7lb, MASK OF ZORRO is handicapped to continue his hot streak.

Ran to form when third beaten 4l off 53 last time and is 1lb lower here. Effective at 6/7f and acts on AW. Remains 7lb above his last winning mark.

Global Warning (second) finished ahead of Tam Lin (third) when the pair met over C&D earlier in the month, but it won't be a huge surprise if the latter is able to reverse the placings on 2lb better terms. However, the vote goes to KONDRATIEV WAVE. The nine-year-old has been running with plenty of credit in recent months and this appears to be a suitable opportunity for him to get his head back in front.

Tam Lin and GLOBAL WARNING appeal most and this may be the day the selection ends his losing streak.

Won handicap debut at Doncaster in December and open to further improvement for top yard.
2	12 2nd (12) (33/1 -18%) Almuhit		33 33/1(-18%)																															(12) Almuhit 33/1, Unsuited by heavy ground and taken on up front, doing plenty early before finishing well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Warwick last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f and wants decent ground; this mark demands more. Had excuses on last two starts and he has potential off this mark judged on his Flat form.
3	7 3rd (7) (18/1 -29%) Bright Legend		18 18/1(-29%)																															(7) Bright Legend 18/1, Too keen and failed to get home on deep ground when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle here last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f on soft and good; yet to match Irish form for his new stable and has more chance back in a handicap. 0-15 over hurdles but on a reduced mark and the Harry Cobden booking catches the eye.
4	9 4th (9) (66/1 -230%) Mini Mildred		66 66/1(-230%)																															(9) Mini Mildred 66/1, Landed a handicap by 3l off a 63lb lower mark at Bath in April. Outclassed and probably did not stay when comfortably held in the Alder Demain & Akers Mares' Chase (Listed) last time; now makes her hurdles debut and might do better. Won in Jersey in 2024 on sole hurdle start; tough tasks over fences this season.
5th	8 5th (8) (15/2 +32%) Escapologist		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(8) Escapologist 15/2, Travelled well and ran to form before tiring late on ground softer than ideal when fourth, beaten 9 1/2l, in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m4f-2m6f and suited by decent ground; could come on for that run. Returned from break with a pretty encouraging run at Huntingdon and could build on it.
6th	14 6th (14) (12/1 -20%) Zainy Champ		12 12/1(-20%)																															(14) Zainy Champ 12/1, Weakening when falling late in a handicap hurdle last time. Effective at 2m-2m2f and acts on soft and good; others preferred. Very in and out across his light career but some good form this season and not discounted.
7th	1 7th (1) (12/1 -118%) Dirty Den		12 12/1(-118%)																															(1) Dirty Den 12/1, Did it comfortably when improving up in trip to land a handicap by 6l off a 6lb lower mark at Plumpton last time. Effective at 2m-2m3f and suited by a sound surface; progressive and can go well again. Knocking on the door prior to a comfortable win at Plumpton; solid claims up 6lb.
8th	5 8th (5) (20/1 +0%) The Long Walk		20 20/1(+0%)																															(5) The Long Walk 20/1, Found nothing on ground that was too soft when pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m2f-2m4f and acts on good to soft and good; inconsistent of late. Pulled up on two of his last three runs but good third at Market Rasen in between.
9th	13 9th (13) (40/1 -60%) Can You Hear Me		40 40/1(-60%)																															(13) Can You Hear Me 40/1, Below form comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Hereford last time; off a short-break; effective at 2m-2m4f, acts on GS and G; can do better now handicapping. Tailed off latest but could be a contender on h'cap debut if tapping into previous promise.
10th	6 10th (6) (3/1 +33%) Le Soleil Reve		3 3/1(+33%)																															(6) Le Soleil Reve 3/1, Improved for the step up in distance when beaten 3 1/4l off a 3lb lower mark here last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f and acts on soft and good; more to come at this trip. Lightly raced 5yo who was runner-up over C&D last month and that form reads well.
11th	3 11th (3) (13/2 +80%) Duffry Trixs		6.5 13/2(+80%)																															(3) Duffry Trixs 13/2, Raced freely and tired late when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m4f-2m7f and acts on soft and good to soft; still early days but this mark demands more. Better could have been expected last time but he's lightly raced and not written off.
12th	15 12th (15) (28/1 -12%) Hello Fortune		28 28/1(-12%)																															(15) Hello Fortune 28/1, A bit keen but ran to form when fourth, beaten 12l, in a maiden hurdle at Lingfield last time. Effective at 2m-2m4f and acts on heavy and good to soft; improvement possible now handicapping. Unexposed point winner who could prove to be on a realistic mark for his handicap debut.
13th	10 13th (10) (16/1 +27%) Hans Lippershey		16 16/1(+27%)																															(10) Hans Lippershey 16/1, Ran to form despite modest jumping when fourth, beaten 17l, in a maiden hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m and acts on soft and good; improvement likely now handicapping. Consistent in short career and pedigree suggests he'll improve for the longer trip.
14th	4 14th (4) (9/1 -6%) Kiwi Rush		9 9/1(-6%)																															(4) Kiwi Rush 9/1, Ran to form down in trip 8 1/4l third in a novice hurdle at Ludlow most recent run; effective 2m-2m4f acts on S and G; capable of much better when settling and brushing up on jumping. Bumper winner who has also shown promise over hurdles; possible improver on handicap debut.
15th	2 15th (2) (9/1 -100%) Mammies Boy		9 9/1(-100%)																															(2) Mammies Boy 9/1, Well backed and not clear run but improved up in trip to land a handicap by a neck off a 3lb lower mark at Warwick last time. Returning from a long layoff; effective at 2m2f-2m5f, acts on a sound surface, though soft ground is a concern. Returns from absence but makes stable debut with new trainer in fine form; could go well.

LAUGHING JOHN made a successful transition to handicap company when scoring at Doncaster in December and the five-year-old is taken to continue the excellent form of his stable following a 2lb rise. Le Soleil Reve beat the selection in a Junior 'National Hunt' contest at Hereford last February and commands respect following his recent C&D second, while others to note are Mammies Boy and Dirty Den.

The lightly raced 5yo LE SOLEIL REVE was a good second over C&D last month and is taken to go one better today.

1	3 1st (3) (7/2 -40%) Titan Discovery		3.5 7/2(-40%)																															(3) Titan Discovery 7/2, Pulled up in the Heroes Handicap Hurdle at Sandown on his latest start. Effective from 2m4f to 3m and acts on soft and good. In form but possibly now on a stiff mark. Looks the main danger to the favourite on form but this looks sharp enough test on chase debut. Chasing debutant who stays 3m and looks vulnerable against Mirabad at this trip.
2	1 2nd (1) (1/4 +25%) Mirabad		0.25 1/4(+25%)																															(1) Mirabad 1/4, Improved under an aggressive ride at a sharp track but set it up for a strong stayer when second, beaten 10l, in the Kingmaker Novices' Chase (Grade 2) at Warwick latest. Effective at 2m and acts on good to soft and good. In fine form for his new yard. Should have too much class and speed for his rivals. This looks a good opportunity after chasing home Steel Ally in the Grade 2 Kingmaker.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 +43%) Leading Choice		16 16/1(+43%)																															(2) Leading Choice 16/1, Never competitive after a series of errors but produced a solid effort out of grade when returning from a lay-off on handicap debut, finishing 27l third in a novice chase at Newbury on his most recent run. Effective from 2m to 2m3f and should improve for that outing when upped in trip. As when tailed off at Newbury last week, these terms aren't favourable.

MIRABAD was not disgraced when filling second place behind a high-class prospect in the Kingmaker at Warwick earlier in the month and, with his sights now lowered, the seven-year-old is expected to go one better. Titan Discovery won a competitive handicap hurdle at Cheltenham in December and is likely to be the biggest threat to the selection because Leading Choice has plenty to find on official ratings.

It's very difficult to see beyond MIRABAD who ran as well as he was entitled to behind Steel Ally in the recent Grade 2 Kingmaker.

Suited by 7/8f and all recent form has come on the all-weather; needs more. Conditions to suit and on a good mark on even this winter's best; one to take seriously.

3	1 3rd (1) (10/1 +0%) Port Louis		10 10/1(+0%)																															(1) Port Louis 10/1, Below form when down the field in a claimer at Dundalk most recently and now returns from a break. Effective over 7-8f; his form tailed off in Ireland and he has plenty to prove for his new yard. 2-26 for Noel Meade; has looked better on turf than AW; not a solid option on stable debut.
4	7 4th (7) (14/1 -75%) Miraflores		14 14/1(-75%)																															(7) Miraflores 14/1, Ran to form when beaten 3l in a classified race here last time despite a wide draw.

5th	6 5th (6) (11/10 +32%) Mintana		1.1 11/10(+32%)																															(6) Mintana 11/10, Ran to form when winning a classified race here by a neck last time.

7th	8 7th (8) (28/1 +15%) The Cola Brasil		28 28/1(+15%)																															(8) The Cola Brasil 28/1, Never involved when beaten 7l in a classified race at Wolverhampton last time. Effective over 6/7f but looks regressive. Down the field in four runs for his current stable; easy enough to swerve.

MINTANA gained her first success for a while in a classified event over C&D on her latest start. The return to handicap company is unlikely to stop her from going in again, especially in a contest where all of her rivals have plenty to prove on recent evidence. Mount Mogan finished second off this mark here over a mile in November and may prove to be the strongest threat. Fort Augustus heads the remainder.

Mintana and Mount Mogan are respected but COMEDIAN LEADER's latest effort hinted that a full revival may be imminent.

Pulled up on last two starts; new headgear combination after wind surgery; needs to revive.

6th	1 6th (1) (11/1 -175%) Walkinthewoods		11 11/1(-175%)																															(1) Walkinthewoods 11/1, Unseated when going well in a handicap chase at Ludlow latest; effective 2m3f-3m on a sound surface; could easily have a say here.

7th	9 7th (9) (50/1 -52%) Sans Of Gold		50 50/1(-52%)																															(9) Sans Of Gold 50/1, Seemingly improved although maybe flattered back in a point when fourth beaten 24l at Buckfastleigh latest; poor performer and hard to fancy back under rules. No rules form to speak of for this yard; 25-1 and beaten 24l in a point nearly a year ago.

Returned to form over hurdles latest (heavy); interesting contender on this chase debut.
8	8 |PU| (8) (15/2 -7%) Constant Friday		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(8) Constant Friday 15/2, Made too much use of on ground softer than ideal when fourth beaten 27l in a handicap chase at Lingfield latest; effective 2m2f-2m4f, acts on S and G; still a maiden over fences. Solid second on penultimate start but disappointed next time; soft-ground query too.

HATOS ran his best race for a while when finishing second at Fontwell and the nine-year-old makes plenty of appeal off 1lb lower in a contest that lacks much depth. Walkinthewoods unseated last time at Ludlow but is better judged on his previous outing over fences when scoring at Plumpton in May. Constant Friday and My Rockstar are others to note.

This is trappy and probably won't take a huge amount of winning. Cases can be made for others but it's worth chancing WHATMAKES HONEY B.

1	1 (1) (7/2 -27%) Jacks Parrot		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(1) Jacks Parrot 7/2, Ran to form when just out-battled late by a well handicapped rival, beaten 1l off this mark at Ludlow last time. Previous placed effort has been boosted. Blinkers are fitted first time; effective at 3m and suited by cut. In form and well treated off an unchanged mark, with a big chance. Running well at present and stays this far, which ticks a big box.
11	11 (11) (4/1 +27%) Planned Paradise		4 4/1(+27%)																															(11) Planned Paradise 4/1, Outpaced and wanting an even stiffer test when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Windsor last time. Ideally wants marathon distances. Consistent and on a fair mark. This test could be ideal and he holds strong claims. Not firing on all cylinders this season but too well handicapped to ignore.
8	8 (8) (6/1 +40%) Astronomic View		6 6/1(+40%)																															(8) Astronomic View 6/1, Ran to form when beaten 3l off this mark at Chepstow last time. That run has been boosted. Effective from 2m4f to 3m6f with cut and on a fair mark based on his hurdles efforts. Back in form. 0-7 over fences but has been running well; possible stamina limitations over this far.
3	3 (3) (6/1 +29%) De Legislator		6 6/1(+29%)																															(3) De Legislator 6/1, Did plenty early and finished down the field in a handicap chase at Windsor most recently. Effective from 3m to 4m and acts with cut, but his current mark demands more. Windsor last time was disappointing but not all horses take to that track.
5	5 (5) (8/1 +0%) Betterforeveryone		8 8/1(+0%)																															(5) Betterforeveryone 8/1, Had every chance but was below form on ground softer than ideal when fourth, beaten 16l, in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter latest. Off a short break; effective from 3m to 4m, acts on soft but best on good. In good form until that run and likes the track but recent rain is a worry. Below par latest but has the form and attributes to feature in a race of this nature.
10	10 (10) (11/1 +61%) Bali Body		11 11/1(+61%)																															(10) Bali Body 11/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Chepstow latest. Tongue-tie fitted first time; effective up to 3m2f and acts on soft and good. Must bounce back and prove ability remains after lay off. Well handicapped on old form but has pulled up the last twice on the back of long absences.
9	9 (9) (12/1 -20%) Gold Emery		12 12/1(-20%)																															(9) Gold Emery 12/1, Ran to form, benefitting from an easy lead when beaten 3l off a 1lb lower mark at Catterick last time. Effective up to 3m2f and acts on heavy and good to soft. Generally consistent but a frustrating maiden over fences. 0-14 in this discipline and came up short in a veterans' chase a month ago.
6	6 (6) (12/1 -60%) Breeze Of Wind		12 12/1(-60%)																															(6) Breeze Of Wind 12/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off an 8lb lower mark at Kelso last time. Off a short break; effective at 3m+ and suited by plenty of cut. In form, but this mark demands more. 2lb higher than when second over 4m at Kelso, which was just about a career best.
2	2 (2) (14/1 -27%) Pimlico Point		14 14/1(-27%)																															(2) Pimlico Point 14/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase at Wincanton latest. Effective around 3m and ideally wants easy ground, but he is inconsistent. Had a complete off-day at Wincanton last month and blinkers now replace cheekpieces.
7	7 (7) (16/1 +0%) Lagonda		16 16/1(+0%)																															(7) Lagonda 16/1, Returned to form in first-time cheekpieces when 12l third in a handicap chase at Hereford on her most recent run. Off a short break; effective at 3m and acts on soft and good to soft. Just 2lb above her last winning mark and could build on that, though unlikely to get her own way in front. Consistent but perhaps doesn't win as often as she should.
4	4 (4) (25/1 -127%) Bodhisattva		25 25/1(-127%)																															(4) Bodhisattva 25/1, Appreciated better ground when 14l third in a handicap chase at Musselburgh on his most recent run. Effective from 3m to 4m and needs decent ground. It is nearly three years since his last win and conditions a concern. Has been beaten 16l and 14l in two handicaps at about 4m the last twice.

JACKS PARROT has improved with each run this season and he was only denied by a length at Ludlow a week ago. The first-time application of blinkers, as well as this step up in trip, should help the seven-year-old and he gets the vote ahead of Breeze Of Wind, who was second in the Borders National at Kelso and remains on a workable mark. Astronomic View and Gold Emery are others to note.

9yo BREEZE OF WIND (nap) is a thorough stayer who loves slow ground and ran as well as he ever has when runner-up at Kelso last time.

Effective over 7-10f and the drop back in trip is a plus; can go well again. Running well in 1m2f classified events in recent weeks; one to consider back at a mile.

10	10 (10) (12/1 +14%) Unknown Journey		12 12/1(+14%)																															(10) Unknown Journey 12/1, Hung under pressure and looked awkward when beaten 6l in a classified race here last time; represents a top course trainer and has a wide draw. Effective over 8-10f but needs more to get off the mark. 19-race maiden; needs to step up on recent C&D form to trouble the principals.
7	7 (7) (16/1 -14%) Pyrrhic Dancer		16 16/1(-14%)																															(7) Pyrrhic Dancer 16/1, Every chance but below form when beaten 5l in a classified race at Wolverhampton last time. Suited by 8-10f; best form largely on AW and his form has been in and out since a lay-off. Not stood much racing in recent seasons; needs to step up on this winter's form.
9	9 (9) (20/1 -43%) Spirit Charmer		20 20/1(-43%)																															(9) Spirit Charmer 20/1, Ran to form when 2l third in a classified race here most recently. Effective over 6-8f; not one to rely on building on that latest effort. Modest maiden; latest C&D 3rd was a fair run but work to do with runner-up Nicely Curved.
1	1 (1) (50/1 -178%) Back Before Dark		50 50/1(-178%)																															(1) Back Before Dark 50/1, Disappointing in first-time blinkers when beaten 5 1/4l in a classified race at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw and off a short break. Suited by 5/6f; bounce back needed and big stamina concerns. Inconsistent sprinter for former stable; stamina to prove starting out for new connections.

NICELY CURVED made an encouraging start for the Hayley Burton yard when touched off over track and trip earlier in the month and now has Rob Hornby on board. With a similar performance, the six-year-old will prove a tough nut to crack. First Encounter finished two lengths clear of the third when just failing in his bid for a double over C&D on his latest outing and is likely to be on the premises again. Spirit Charmer is another to note.

A few have claims but the most appealing option is FIRST ENCOUNTER who has a win and a second from his two runs at this level in 2026.

2	2 (2) (2/5 +0%) Thunder Rock		0.4 2/5(+0%)																															(2) Thunder Rock 2/5, Made a promising start in hunter chases when second, beaten 3/4l, here last time.

4	4 (4) (9/2 +25%) Mr Glass		4.5 9/2(+25%)																															(4) Mr Glass 9/2, Well below form when pulled up in a hunter chase here last time. Cheekpieces are fitted for the first time.

Effective from 2m to 2m6f on soft and good ground and that form has worked out well, giving him strong claims. Second to the smart Unexpected Party at Taunton and that was after a wind operation.
1	1 (1) (28/1 -180%) Beat Box		28 28/1(-180%)																															(1) Beat Box 28/1, More like it when third in a mixed open point at Larkhill last time. Effective around 2m under rules and best on a sound surface but acts with cut. Hard to fancy on recent point evidence, although his handicap form would give him a chance. Useful for Dan Skelton but looks regressive judged on his recent pointing exploits.
3	3 (3) (28/1 -75%) Gateau De Miel		28 28/1(-75%)																															(3) Gateau De Miel 28/1, Hampered by a faller and never involved when well beaten in a handicap chase at Worcester last time. Effective up to 3m2f and acts on soft and good ground. A bounce back is needed and he may need this on his hunter chase debut. Dual chase winner but looks very vulnerable on these terms.
6	6 (6) (80/1 -627%) Gig In The Park		80 80/1(-627%)																															(6) Gig In The Park 80/1, Did not need to improve to get off the mark when winning a maiden point at Cothelstone by 2 1/4l last time. Effective at 2m4f in points and acts on a sound surface. Lightly raced for his age and brings some promise to rules. Found some form in points last spring but this is a belated debut over regulation fences.

It's hard to get away from FAN DE BLUES, who only found Unexpected Party too good at Taunton last month and if reproducing that level of form, he could prove hard to beat. Thunder Rock was just touched off over 3m1f at this course last time and has to be respected along with Gig In The Park, who was victorious on his last point-to-point outing.

Olly Murphy's THUNDER ROCK appeals as the most likely winner, for all that he may ideally want further these days.

7	7 (7) (7/2 +65%) Daring Plan		3.5 7/2(+65%)																															(7) Daring Plan 7/2, Outpaced and below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Taunton last time; effective at 2 1/2m; in moderate form. Still a maiden and hasn't offered all that much in three runs following a break.
2	2 (2) (7/2 +50%) Carrigmoorna Rowan		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(2) Carrigmoorna Rowan 7/2, Did plenty early on ground more testing than ideal and set it up for closers when fourth, beaten 28l, in a handicap chase at Wincanton last time; effective at 2 1/2m and best on good to soft; unreliable. Bled last time and it has been a positive start for his current yard; respected.

Hasn't got a lot going in his previous chases but well handicapped on some hurdle form.
4	4 (4) (9/2 -100%) Copper Cove		4.5 9/2(-100%)																															(4) Copper Cove 9/2, Fell in a handicap chase at Hereford last time when set for a place; effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and acts on heavy and good to soft; well treated on old efforts and back in form. Returned to fences at Hereford two weeks ago and looked booked for second when falling.
3	3 (3) (5/1 +0%) Jaitroplaclasse		5 5/1(+0%)																															(3) Jaitroplaclasse 5/1, Had every chance and ran to form when fourth, beaten 17l, in a handicap chase at Taunton last time; effective from 2m to 2m4f and acts on any ground; in good form but this mark demands a touch more. Good third at Ludlow before getting stuck in the mud (heavy) at Taunton.
6	6 (6) (14/1 +13%) Port Or Starboard		14 14/1(+13%)																															(6) Port Or Starboard 14/1, Didn't stay the longer trip when fourth, beaten 17l, in a handicap hurdle at Sedgefield last time; effective at 2m and acts on soft and good ground; needs more and does not look quite the force of old. Nowhere near his best over hurdles this season and not bred for fences.
1	1 (1) (14/1 -300%) Jiair Madrik		14 14/1(-300%)																															(1) Jiair Madrik 14/1, Best effort yet for the new yard under a positive ride when second, beaten 6l, in a handicap chase at Catterick last time; effective at 2m and acts on any ground; a winner in France and could build on that latest run. His third run back from a mammoth absence when chasing home an improver at Catterick.
5	5 (5) (16/1 -14%) Just Aidan		16 16/1(-14%)																															(5) Just Aidan 16/1, Unseated in a handicap chase at Taunton last time; effective at 2m and acts with cut; on a fair mark based on his best hurdles form but must bounce back. Twice uncompetitive in handicap hurdles before departing mid-race on chase debut.

Copper Cove's chance certainly hadn't gone when he fell at the last over 2m5f at Hereford earlier in the month and he remains of interest, but the vote goes to JIAIR MADRIK. The seven-year-old returned to form when chasing home an odds-on shot at Catterick on his latest outing and he could take advantage of an unchanged rating. Port Or Starboard is the pick of the remainder.

At the bottom of the weights is CATBOY who unseated when made favourite for his last run over fences and is well treated.

1	1 (1) (1/1 +67%) Watermelon Sugar		1 1/1(+67%)																															(1) Watermelon Sugar 1/1, Scored by 2l off a 7lb lower mark here on his penultimate start. Short of room multiple times and unlucky when runner up here last time. Suited by 6f and remains well treated on old form, boasting a good C&D record. Landed gamble here in December and subsequent 2nd is strong form; still well handicapped.

7	7 (7) (14/1 -75%) Just Jump		14 14/1(-75%)																															(7) Just Jump 14/1, Had too much to do after missing the break and meeting trouble when beaten 3/4l off a 1lb lower mark at Dundalk last time. Top course trainer, off a short break, inconsistent but on a good mark on Irish form and longer trip a plus on stable debut. 1m winner; fair 3rd over 5f when last seen ten weeks ago; market to guide on stable debut.
8	8 (8) (16/1 -14%) Harry Brown		16 16/1(-14%)																															(8) Harry Brown 16/1, No obvious excuse when beaten 6l in a handicap here last time.

3	3 (3) (40/1 +39%) Stapleford Park		40 40/1(+39%)																															(3) Stapleford Park 40/1, Had every chance but was below form when beaten 5l in a handicap here last time. Trainer in form, effective over 6/7f, but out of form and still not fully proven on AW. Yet to fire for current stable and arrives with more to prove than most.

Profit Street appreciated the step back up in trip when scoring over 7f here on his most recent start, but is versatile and should mount another bold bid. Dark Sun was just denied off a 1lb higher mark at Wolverhampton and is considered, but WATERMELON SUGAR hit the woodwork over track and trip last month and, with Jamie Spencer booked, he could be the one to beat.

The form of WATERMELON SUGAR's C&D second last month has worked out well and he can defy topweight in a useful race of its type.

Effective at 2m on good to soft; more to come and helps provide the yard with a strong hand. Well backed when close second at Ludlow and sets standard on that form; key player.

1	1 (1) (15/2 -67%) Ashburton		7.5 15/2(-67%)																															(1) Ashburton 15/2, Promising debut when runner-up, beaten a length in a Mares' bumper at Doncaster on her only start. Off a short break and effective over 2m1f on soft; improvement likely and one of two strong contenders for the yard. Half-sister to two bumper winners and was second on Doncaster debut in November; respected.
8	8 (8) (9/1 +50%) Nathannah		9 9/1(+50%)																															(8) Nathannah 9/1, £14,000 Nathaniel filly; half-sister to Hairy Potter, a modest maiden; tough enough task on debut. £14,000 yearling; yard 15% in bumpers in recent years and market should guide on debut.

Makes some appeal on breeding and could go well at a price. Yard 1-41 in bumpers in recent years and she could be a longer-term prospect.
3	3 (3) (125/1 -346%) Detroit Bay		125 125/1(-346%)																															(3) Detroit Bay 125/1, Pulled up in a juvenile hurdle at Taunton on her latest start. Hood worn for the first time and off a short break; effective at 2m1f on good ground, but a bounce back is needed returning to bumpers. Encouraging fourth on C&D debut but was pulled up over hurdles last time; hood added.

Having offered plenty of encouragement when second on debut at Ludlow, Steal A Glance is slightly more appealing than stablemate Ashburton, who boasts a similar profile. However, there are some intriguing newcomers on show and it could be worth taking a chance on MADAM SPEAKER. Nicky Henderson's filly boasts plenty of speed in her pedigree and market support would increase confidence. Fellow debutants Sister Cecilia and Guste's Dance are others of interest.

Anthoney Honeyball has a strong hand with Ashburton and STEAL A GLANCE but there are also several newcomers who need a close look.

Effective at 2 1/2m and suited by soft and good ground; inconsistent. Inconsistent but a repeat of his second at Southwell in Dec would give him every chance.
5	5 (5) (13/8 +28%) Casual Observer		1.625 13/8(+28%)																															(5) Casual Observer 13/8, Keen and well handicapped on novice form, improved when benefitting from his reappearance and well backed when landing a handicap by 3l off a 6lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time. Returning from a long layoff; progressive and opening chase mark lenient so looks a leading player. Open to improvement as a chaser and fitness might not be an issue given yard he represents.

Effective at 2 1/2m, acts on heavy and good; inconsistent but well treated on best form and likes the track so dangerous if allowed to dictate. Chase winner last March; two lesser runs have come on either side of wind surgery.
1	1 (1) (6/1 +29%) Galop De Chasse		6 6/1(+29%)																															(1) Galop De Chasse 6/1, Outpaced and needing the run when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Chepstow last time; off a short break. Best around 2m4f and acts on soft and good ground; a bounce back is needed. On a useful mark and his yard is in better form now than when he ran at Christmas.

Casual Observer is an interesting contender on his chasing bow after winning over the smaller obstacles at Ffos Las last year, but the long absence is a slight concern. With that in mind, OSTEND gets the nod. Alastair Ralph's eight-year-old failed in his attempt to make all when third at Southwell, but has been dropped 3lb for that effort and that might prove to be kind. Bowenspark completes the shortlist.

A tight race but CASUAL OBSERVER has the potential to be well handicapped on his chase debut. Bowenspark is next best.

6	6 (6) (15/2 +17%) Hamish Leek		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(6) Hamish Leek 15/2, Cheekpieces were tried and he may not have stayed the longer trip when well beaten in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Blinkers are applied for the first time; effective over 7f and the drop in trip is a plus. Similar profile to Telling Time; more severe headgear is reached for.
4	4 (4) (8/1 +20%) Telling Time		8 8/1(+20%)																															(4) Telling Time 8/1, Made too much use of and did not stay 9f when down the field in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time.

9	9 (9) (11/1 -175%) Saturday Again		11 11/1(-175%)																															(9) Saturday Again 11/1, Hood tried and off a break, but it was easily her best effort when beaten 5 1/4l in a maiden at Lingfield last time.

2	2 (2) (28/1 +15%) Private Project		28 28/1(+15%)																															(2) Private Project 28/1, Again below form when comfortably held in a nursery at Leicester last time.

8	8 (8) (40/1 -122%) Grand Echo		40 40/1(-122%)																															(8) Grand Echo 40/1, Had a wide trip when beaten 3 1/2l off a 3lb higher mark at Lingfield last time. Six furlongs may suit best; struggling a bit off the current mark. Down the field in all five handicap starts and he's hard to fancy.
12	12 (12) (66/1 -32%) Bosh Soldier		66 66/1(-32%)																															(12) Bosh Soldier 66/1, Another poor effort when last of seven at Chelmsford last time. No worthwhile form and a wide draw; yet to show any sign of ability. Yet to beat more than two home in a race.
10	10 (10) (80/1 -60%) Lady Birgma		80 80/1(-60%)																															(10) Lady Birgma 80/1, Ran about to her usual poor level when beaten 10l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Wide draw; effective over 7f; has regressed. Yet to make the frame and another struggle looks likely.
11	11 (11) (100/1 -52%) Dawn Melody		100 100/1(-52%)																															(11) Dawn Melody 100/1, A poor effort when beaten 9 1/4l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Small and has found her level, but just selling class. Started triple-figure odds in all but one of her seven starts and has run accordingly.

Electrocution has stepped forward on his last couple of starts and got off the mark at Wolverhampton at the beginning of the month. Despite showing an improved level of form, a 4lb rise does ask more of Chelsea Banham's gelding and HOVE RANGER might be the one to take advantage. Runner-up on his handicap bow at Lingfield, he is expected to have more to offer from the same rating. Others to consider are Giles Glory and Private Project.

This won't take much winning and ELECTROCUTION (nap) might only have to reproduce what he did at Wolverhampton 23 days ago to follow up.

MARLBOROUGH PLACE sets a decent standard judged on his two starts in Ireland and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if he proved capable of defying a 7lb penalty following his Limerick success back in July. Holly Mist showed signs of inexperience when second at Lingfield earlier in the month and may well have benefited from that outing, while Ablon completes the shortlist.

None of the five can be ruled out entirely. ABLON is taken to cope with this drop in trip.

Effective over 7f and has a chance if building on that latest effort. Very good second to kick off 2026; this is tougher but he's in receipt of plenty of weight.

POPMASTER retains plenty of enthusiasm, with the eight-year-old returning to the winner's enclosure here over a mile three weeks ago when having Nikovo back in third. Despite a 3lb swing in the weights, Ed Walker's gelding has every chance of confirming the form and backing that success up. Kingdom Come wasn't disgraced over C&D behind a subsequent Listed winner and is of significant interest off a 2lb lower mark.

Popmaster isn't opposed lightly but triple C&D winner KINGDOM COME has plenty in his favour too.

3	3 (3) (2/1 +67%) I Am Me		2 2/1(+67%)																															(3) I Am Me 2/1, Bit keen but ran to form when beaten 1 1/4l off this mark here last time; trainer in form; effective at 8/9f and acts on AW; holds a chance again off the same mark. Twice managed third over C&D despite being unwanted in the betting; yard since hit form.
6	6 (6) (9/2 +59%) Penfolds Grange		4.5 9/2(+59%)																															(6) Penfolds Grange 9/2, Ran to form upped in trip after a wind op when beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Lingfield last time; effective at 8-10f and acts on AW; inconsistent but capable. Decent outcome last time, all things considered; definite claims back at 1m.
9	9 (9) (11/2 +39%) Luminous Warrior		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(9) Luminous Warrior 11/2, Below form when seventh, beaten 15l off 67 last time and 1lb lower here; effective at 7/8f and acts on AW; may still be a little high in the weights. Ignore latest run; foiled the gamble on Rhythm N Rock over C&D the time before.
8	8 (8) (6/1 -33%) Apache Green		6 6/1(-33%)																															(8) Apache Green 6/1, Ran to form up in trip when beaten a length off a 2lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; effective at 7-10f and acts on AW; drop in trip no bad thing. Latest fifth doesn't signify his good run is over; this test should suit better.
7	7 (7) (13/2 -44%) Holy Fire		6.5 13/2(-44%)																															(7) Holy Fire 13/2, Back to best and strong at the finish when landing a handicap by 2l off a 4lb lower mark here last time; usually held up; acts on AW; can go well again after a small rise. Seen to advantage when snapping losing run here latest; new trip of 1m raises a question.
13	13 (13) (10/1 -25%) Simply Blue		10 10/1(-25%)																															(13) Simply Blue 10/1, Bit wide and again below best when beaten 3 1/2l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time; effective at 7/8f and acts on AW; needs more. Frustrating for new connections but 1m looks worth revisiting; course debut.
5	5 (5) (14/1 -133%) Top Of The Class		14 14/1(-133%)																															(5) Top Of The Class 14/1, Best work came late after a slow start when beaten 3 1/2l off a 2lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last time; wide draw; effective at 8/9f and on AW; capable off this mark. Key player off the same mark as when comfortably landing a division of this last year.
10	10 (10) (16/1 -60%) Enpassant		16 16/1(-60%)																															(10) Enpassant 16/1, Ran to form when beaten 1 1/4l off this mark at Southwell last time; wide draw; suited by 7f and acts on AW; holds a chance once again. Finished off quite well over 7f on last two starts but is 0-6 over 1m+.
1	1 (1) (20/1 -43%) Tronido		20 20/1(-43%)																															(1) Tronido 20/1, Below form, possibly needed the run when beaten 7l in a handicap at Lingfield last time; enjoys making it; best around 8f and acts on AW; bounce back needed and remains 6lb above her last winning mark. Handicapper probably has her measure but showing up well for a long way wouldn't surprise.
2	2 (2) (40/1 -60%) Pursuit Of Truth		40 40/1(-60%)																															(2) Pursuit Of Truth 40/1, Never in it when down the field in a handicap here most recently; off a short break; effective up to 9-12f and acts on AW; bounce back needed and the drop in trip may suit. Hard to make a case for, particularly over this trip of 1m.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -313%) Bronte Beach		66 66/1(-313%)																															(11) Bronte Beach 66/1, Similar run to her previous start when well beaten in a maiden here latest; effective at 10f and acts on AW; stocky sort who may do better now handicapping. Might need some extra yardage before she's seriously competitive in handicaps.
12	12 (12) (100/1 +0%) Miss Chester		100 100/1(+0%)																															(12) Miss Chester 100/1, Again ran to a poor level when down the field in a handicap here most recently; wide draw; effective at 7f; bit to prove at present. Finished last or second last in four handicap starts; passed over.

Holy Fire showed significant improvement to get her head back in front over 7f here last month and commands respect, but it may pay to side with TOP OF THE CLASS. Mark Loughnane's mare filled the runner-up berth over an extended mile at Wolverhampton on her most recent start and, with all three of her career victories coming over C&D, she looks the one to be on. I Am Me isn't ruled out either.

Open. I AM ME is the suggestion given his yard has really hit form since he placed in better C&D contests last month.

1	1 (1) (1/4 +50%) Hidden Force		0.25 1/4(+50%)																															(1) Hidden Force 1/4, Yard has won last two runnings of race; knew job, quickened clear nicely 2l winner in a novice here on debut; off a short-break; effective at 7f, middle-distance bred, acts on AW; strong sort, looks at least very useful and could easily take a marked step forward from debut. Hard to beat for an operation that has won four of the last five runnings of this.
4	4 (4) (5/1 +23%) Venetian Prince		5 5/1(+23%)																															(4) Venetian Prince 5/1, Had run of race and ran to form off a break when second beaten a short-head in a novice at Southwell latest; top course trainer; effective 7/8f, acts on fast ground and AW; game and consistent but needs more. Fascinating contender given who he's up against/what happened last time.
3	3 (3) (14/1 -100%) Utmost Good Faith		14 14/1(-100%)																															(3) Utmost Good Faith 14/1, Settled better, suited by sharp track when winning a handicap at Wolverhampton by 3l last time; suited by 7/8f, acts on Y and AW, speed-test suits; races freely and needs more here. Could do with settling better but he may not be done improving for George Boughey.
2	2 (2) (16/1 -220%) Tadej		16 16/1(-220%)																															(2) Tadej 16/1, Below Group form, maybe didn't stay extended trip beaten 5l in a 2yo race at Doncaster last time; suited by 6f, acts on any; smart juvenile but has stamina to prove over this far and show he's trained on. New trip and switches to AW but has a Group win on his CV.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

Group 3 winner Tadej sets the standard with an official rating of 105 and holds an obvious chance, while Utmost Good Faith seeks a four-timer and is one to keep an eye on. However, HIDDEN FORCE made a deep impression when scoring on his sole juvenile start over 7f here in December and has plenty of scope for improvement. The extra furlong will suit this well-bred son of Frankel and he looks the one to side with.

It looks worth siding with the obvious potential of HIDDEN FORCE. Venetian Prince can chase him home.

5	5 (5) (2/1 +56%) Moment Of Light		2 2/1(+56%)																															(5) Moment Of Light 2/1, Back to debut level beaten 7 1/2l in a maiden at Newmarket last time; tongue-tie first time; effective at 8f on sound surface; looks a middle-distance prospect and has been gelded. Could be the answer upped in trip for handicap debut.
4	4 (4) (11/4 +21%) Only In Manila		2.75 11/4(+21%)																															(4) Only In Manila 11/4, Came clear with second and back to best when winning a maiden here by a short-head last time; effective at 8-11f, acts on GF and AW; scopey gelding, more to come. C&D winner who surely has more to offer; Harry Davies picks him over Toastmaster.
3	3 (3) (10/3 -21%) Toastmaster		3.333333 10/3(-21%)																															(3) Toastmaster 10/3, Caught too far back and finished very well when beaten 3 1/4l off this mark at Wolverhampton last time. Visor first time; suited by 9/10f; big, strong, attractive gelding who is progressing and could rate more highly. Frustrating in handicaps; new trip and the addition of a visor might help.
1	1 (1) (4/1 +20%) Parisian Scholar		4 4/1(+20%)																															(1) Parisian Scholar 4/1, Run of race, ran to form landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; returning from a break; effective 7/8f, acts on GS and AW; been gelded and bred to be effective over these sorts of trips and more to come. Bagged three nurseries; could have even more to offer up in trip this year.
2	2 (2) (11/1 -267%) Helga		11 11/1(-267%)																															(2) Helga 11/1, Yard won this last year; the step up in trip suited and she showed a good attitude when winning a maiden here by 2l, going away a bit. Top course trainer; suited by 11f and may get further; big, very likeable filly with more to come. Maiden win came over C&D; fair mark and trainer won this with a similar type last year.

All of these have claims, but none more so than HELGA. Andrew Balding's filly took a big step forward when winning over C&D on just her second start and that effort suggests that an opening mark of 77 should be workable. Only In Manila also won over this track and trip on his latest outing and he has to be noted on his handicap bow. Parisian Scholar is the pick of the remainder.

The top four on the card all have something to recommend them but MOMENT OF LIGHT could have been let in lightly on handicap debut.

This 5yo is very much on the up; hat-trick could be achieved.
6	6 (6) (11/4 +39%) Jesse Luc		2.75 11/4(+39%)																															(6) Jesse Luc 11/4, Should have finished closer beaten 2 1/4l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time; trainer in form; effective 6f, form mainly on AW, acts on S; fair mark and in decent form. Could be in business if Callum Shepherd can settle him.

Four wins on AW but passed over given underwhelming form at this track.

Opposable given he was no match for Em Four at Chelmsford recently.

The recent Lingfield winners Combustion and Invincible Speed both have to be noted, but their new marks demand more from them. With that in mind, preference is for TYGER BAY, who is a five-time C&D winner and he was only beaten a neck into second when last seen at Chelmsford in December. Em Four is another who arrives with valid claims.

Mike Murphy has his string in great nick and JESSE LUC looks ready to win again. Combustion is feared most.

About U.K Horse Racing

Horse racing is a popular and historic sport in the UK, with a tradition dating back centuries. It is a multi-billion pound industry that attracts millions of spectators each year and generates significant economic activity.

There are two main types of horse racing in the UK: flat racing and jump racing. Flat racing is run on a level course and is typically shorter in distance, while jump racing involves horses jumping over obstacles and is generally longer in distance. Both types of racing are popular with spectators and bettors, and they take place at various racetracks throughout the country.

The most famous horse racing event in the UK is the Grand National, which is held annually at Aintree Racecourse in Liverpool. It is a jump racing event that is known for its challenging course and has become a national institution in the UK. Other notable horse racing events in the UK include the Derby, held at Epsom Downs Racecourse in Surrey, and the Royal Ascot, held at Ascot Racecourse in Berkshire.

Horse racing in the UK is regulated by the British Horseracing Authority (BHA), which sets rules and standards for the industry. It is responsible for the welfare of racehorses and the safety of jockeys and trainers, as well as ensuring fair and transparent racing practices.

In addition to its economic and cultural importance, horse racing in the UK also plays a significant role in the breeding and training of thoroughbred horses. Many of the world's top thoroughbreds are bred and trained in the UK, and the industry plays a vital role in the preservation and promotion of the breed.

Overall, horse racing is an integral part of British culture and a major contributor to the country's economy. It is a thrilling and exciting sport that continues to attract a loyal following and generate significant interest from spectators and bettors around the world.
