1	5 1st (5) (5/4 +0%) Karamoja		1.25 5/4(+0%)																															(5) Karamoja 5/4, Stopped quickly after bad error when well beaten in a beginners chase chase at Naas latest; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 2-2 1/2m; yet to take to chasing but Grade 1 hurdle form sets the standard. Should win this judged on hurdle form but first two chase starts were very poor.
2	7 2nd (7) (15/2 +0%) Neon Diamond		7.5 15/2(+0%)																															(7) Neon Diamond 15/2, Mistakes, ran to form on chase debut when fourth beaten 17l in a beginners chase chase at Naas latest; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2-2 3/4m; could build on initial experience. Remote fourth on Naas chase debut but was ahead of Karamoja; improvement likely.
3	6 3rd (6) (33/1 -106%) Lep Around		33 33/1(-106%)																															(6) Lep Around 33/1, Poor flat return beaten 7 1/2l in the Challenge Race at Punchestown last time; effective 2m3f, acts with cut; out of form. Maiden hurdle winner the season before last but hard to fancy judged on everything since.
4	4 4th (4) (28/1 -133%) Herja		28 28/1(-133%)																															(4) Herja 28/1, Ran to form, had run of race when second beaten 2l in a novice hurdle at Wetherby latest; returning from a break; effective 2-2 1/2m on G; consistent hurdler in UK; more needed to figure on chase debut. Sedgefield maiden hurdle winner but likely to come up short in this company on chase bow.
5th	8 5th (8) (20/1 -67%) Nytol		20 20/1(-67%)																															(8) Nytol 20/1, Unsuited by drop in trip on chase debut, never put into the race back from lay off when well beaten in a beginners chase chase here latest; effective 2 1/2-3m, suited by decent ground; can do better over further on spring ground over fences but may struggle here. Tailed off behind Salvator Mundi on C&D chase debut last month; more required to figure.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/1 +45%) Coillte M C G		11 11/1(+45%)																															(2) Coillte M C G 11/1, Ran to form on chase debut when fourth beaten 4 1/4l in a beginners chase chase at Cork latest; off a short-break; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on yielding and good; point form suggests she may have bit more to offer over fences. Fourth on Cork chase debut in January but this is a hotter contest; first run for new yard.
9	9 |B| (9) (9/2 +50%) Stormalong		4.5 9/2(+50%)																															(9) Stormalong 9/2, Mistakes, ran to form when fourth beaten 36l in Carey Glass Mares Novice Chase (Grade 2) here latest; effective 2-2 1/2m, needs sound surface; brings in plenty of experience; fair claims down in class. 128-rated hurdler; highly tried over fences, this is one of her more realistic chances.
3	3 |F| (3) (3/1 +25%) Fancy Girl		3 3/1(+25%)																															(3) Fancy Girl 3/1, Out-battled and possibly outstayed late up in trip but returned to form when second beaten 1 1/2l in the Conditions Hurdle at Down Royal latest; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on yielding and good; useful hurdler should play a part but conditions a concern on chase debut. Beat the classy Dysart Enos on sole point-to-point outing; big player on chase debut.
1	1 |PU| (1) (125/1 -346%) Charity Barnum		125 125/1(-346%)																															(1) Charity Barnum 125/1, Below form when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Wexford latest; effective 2-2 1/2m, may get 3m; maiden over hurdles, plenty to prove now chasing. Some promise in bumpers for Gordon Elliott; 0-9 hurdling; improvement needed on chase bow.

Despite finishing tailed off on her latest start at Naas in January, KARAMOJA is afforded another chance. Easily the best of these over hurdles, the Willie Mullins-trained six-year-old was good enough to reach the frame at Grade 1 level as a novice last year. Far from disgraced when sixth at Fairyhouse on her chasing debut before Christmas, it is fair to assume that something was amiss last time. Provided she is back to anything like her best here, the daughter of Masked Marvel should have too much for point-to-point winner Fancy Girl and Stormalong.

FANCY GIRL is bred for chasing and could be hard to beat if she's ready after a break. Neon Diamond isn't out of things

INDANNYA couldn't cope with the rise in class at Warwick when asked to contest a Grade 2, but she's still a really nice prospect judged on her previous win at the Midlands venue and can be forgiven one lacklustre effort. Sevarana confirmed the promise of her Lingfield second when going one better at Carlisle and is another penalised runner to take seriously. Chances are also given to Our Peggy and Lady Magic.

If this race is run as much to suit as Kempton last time, LADY MAGIC may be able to double up. Indannya heads the alternatives.

1	2 1st (2) (9/2 +36%) Chemoulin		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(2) Chemoulin 9/2, Ran to form when fourth beaten 12l in a maiden hurdle at Newcastle latest; effective 2 1/2m, acts on good to soft; debut form strong, outside claims. Displayed ability in both starts and should make his presence felt in this winnable race.
2	1 2nd (1) (6/4 -20%) Ballyeaston		1.5 6/4(-20%)																															(1) Ballyeaston 6/4, Ran to form up in trip but still green and very awkward under pressure when second beaten 2 1/4l in a maiden hurdle at Catterick latest; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m-2m4f, good to soft and good; can do better again stepped up in trip. Leading contender despite looking almost unrideable when 2nd last time; tongue-tie goes on.
3	3 3rd (3) (15/2 -36%) Coumeenoole		7.5 15/2(-36%)																															(3) Coumeenoole 15/2, Outpaced, outclassed and looked in need of further when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Ascot last time; showed useful level of form in Ireland; effective 2 1/2-3m, suited by decent ground; can do better for new yard when stepped up to 3m but threat if getting decent test. Little to shout about in three runs for Dan Skelton but this represents a drop in grade.

Beaten 50l in two starts this term and needs to prove he retains ability.
5th	6 5th (6) (100/1 +33%) Shuile Warrior		100 100/1(+33%)																															(6) Shuile Warrior 100/1, Poor hurdles return when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Ludlow most recent; point winner hasn't shown much under rules.

Solid Performer produced his best effort so far over timber when runner-up at Catterick, but the drop back in trip may count against him and BALLYEASTON is preferred. Having hung badly left when second at Catterick in December, the track layout here might just help him out and the extra yardage appears to be in his favour. Chemoulin appears best of the remainder.

Solid Performer and Ballyeaston are big players but have differing queries over them so it may pay to side with CHEMOULIN.

1	7 1st (7) (11/10 +12%) Folk Pageant		1.1 11/10(+12%)																															(7) Folk Pageant 11/10, Promising debut, good attitude when runner-up beaten 2l in a novice at Ayr only start; wide draw; effective at 7f on good to soft; the one to beat on form assuming ready to roll on return. Second to subsequent Group 3 winner on debut last July; sets standard and can do better.

4	3 4th (3) (28/1 +15%) Goldfinder		28 28/1(+15%)																															(3) Goldfinder 28/1, Probably improved a bit second start when fourth beaten 9l in a maiden at Kempton latest; seems effective at 8f on AW; tall gelding, probably more to come. Modest form in two 1m Polytrack maidens this year; handicaps more suitable after this.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 -120%) Floating Market		11 11/1(-120%)																															(6) Floating Market 11/1, Yard won this last year; Bangkok filly; half-sister to City Saint, fair at 11f; dam smart at 14f; top trainer in form and interesting to see which way this one goes in the betting in relation to stablemate. Dam a well-related winner (1m to 2m); one of two newcomers for connections; betting useful.

Her four siblings have all been successful but middle distances will suit better in time.
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 +25%) Lakota Chief		6 6/1(+25%)																															(4) Lakota Chief 6/1, Ran about to debut form when fourth beaten 6 1/4l in a novice at Newcastle latest; stays 8f, acts on AW; big, strong sort, may yet improve. Green on debut but failed to build on it a month later (both Newcastle; 7f/1m); needs more.

FOLK PAGEANT displayed plenty of promise when second on her debut over 7f at Ayr in July. Given that the winner of that contest went on to strike at Group 3 level, this daughter of Masar merits the utmost respect on her return to action. Any market support for Constant Star would have to be noted, while Lakota Chief and Al Maslool are next best.

Folk Pageant is the one to beat but she's been off since July and AL MASLOOL could be the answer with his debut effort behind him.

FLEUR IN THE PARK can land this valuable prize for local trainer Andrew Slattery. Grade 1 placed over hurdles as a novice last season, the Walk In The Park gelding has taken really well to fences this term. Just touched off in stronger company at Punchestown when last seen, the seven-year-old can regain the winning thread. Soldier In Milan rates the main danger. Off the mark in a Punchestown bumper on his Rules debut, connections wasted little time in switching him to chasing. Having made the breakthrough over fences last time, the Emmet Mullins-trained gelding commands respect. Jalila Moriviere and C'Est Ta Chance also have a squeak.

This trip should not be a problem for FLEUR IN THE PARK who stayed well over hurdles and should be able to match his good 2m chase form

TOUQUET dominated a six-runner field at Huntingdon to record a double and connections have found him another good opening as he bids for the three-timer. Just the four runners have been declared and there is every chance he'll get an uncontested lead, so is taken to gallop them into submission. Sage Green is interesting on his chase bow, but a bigger danger is Haas Boy if he can leave a moderate Exeter performance behind and come back to October's Newton Abbot form.

Although up 5lb, it takes little to imagine TOUQUET boss this small field, with old rival A Great Excuse set to run him closest.

Rare poor effort when pulled up at Fakenham latest; cheekpieces on and sort to bounce back.

The addition of a first-time visor made a difference to WAL BUCK'S when running out a wide-margin winner at Kelso. The handicapper didn't go over the top by only raising him 4lb and it won't be surprising if a bigger performance is still in the locker. Ki Woo should appreciate a sounder surface after a below-par display at Doncaster, while similar comments apply to Iron Bridge based on his Carlisle second on his penultimate start.

Course winner WAL BUCK'S looked better than ever in a visor when a wide-margin scorer at Kelso recently and is hard to side against.

BEAUMADIER had plenty in hand when making all at Wolverhampton last week and a 5lb penalty for that success may not be enough to stop him from following up here. Gogo Yubari might still be a touch high in the ratings, so Hello Luna could prove to be the main threat following a couple of encouraging efforts in defeat of late.

The early skirmishes will be crucial and MICK'S SPIRIT is marginally preferred to last week's runaway winner Beaumadier.

WYOMING BABY was bumped up to a mark of 93 after winning over hurdles at Cork so she is well treated back in this discipline, and her previous second at Tramore marked her out as a capable chaser. She can continue to go the right way, although there was no fluke about Quornofamonday's recent success here and he is a big danger. Rusheen is a player if his jumping holds up, while Toor Khov made a successful debut over fences at this venue but is back handicapping off a stiff enough rating.

In an open race an each-way vote goes to DRIVEONWILL who may fare better than on recent hurdle starts

PENN AVENUE finished third on her handicap hurdle debut at Plumpton before returning to maiden company and filling the same position at Hereford. The four-year-old appears capable of taking another step forward on this occasion. Frank Stamper disappointed on his penultimate outing at Plumpton before running a lot better at the same venue. He can get involved along with Raffles Nobu.

Recent Hereford third PENN AVENUE may still have potential over hurdles and ought to be suited by the drying ground here.

Is This For Real was the convincing winner of a maiden hurdle at Newcastle and is potentially well treated for his handicap debut. Having previously won a point-to-point over 2m4f, stepping up in trip could also be rewarding. However, the same can be said of KING ULANDA, who has improved since undergoing wind surgery and looked in need of a sterner test when filling the runner-up berth behind an in-form rival here. The Cistercian and Sunray Shadow complete the shortlist.

Handicap debutants The Cistercian (second choice) and Is This For Real hold leading claims but KING ULANDA gets the vote.

FIDELIUS has been in fine fettle over the winter months, with the five-year-old scoring over C&D two starts ago. Robert Cowell's gelding has since filled the runner-up spot at Chelmsford and he edges the vote in what looks a competitive event on paper. Toolatetonegotiate was third behind the selection here and has to enter the reckoning, while The Thames Boatman is respected in his bid for a fifth course victory.

Fidelius arrives in top form but THE THAMES BOATMAN (nap) may be the one to be with this time.

Made an encouraging debut in a maiden hurdle, had a mishap in a bumper, leading contender.
9	9 (9) (15/2 +58%) We Be Grand		7.5 15/2(+58%)																															(9) We Be Grand 15/2, Improved when well beaten in a maiden hurdle here latest; returning from a break; effective 2m; debut price suggests he's thought capable of better. Has shown ability in bumper and maiden hurdles, possibly one for handicaps after this.
15	15 (15) (14/1 +44%) Mysilverriverfeale		14 14/1(+44%)																															(15) Mysilverriverfeale 14/1, Ran similarly to last run when comfortably held in a Mares bumper at Ballinrobe last time; should improve now hurdling but this a big ask back from break. Showed some promise in bumper runs last August, likely to be well schooled.
8	8 (8) (25/1 +62%) Toor Beag		25 25/1(+62%)																															(8) Toor Beag 25/1, Not knocked about, very promising debut seeing out the trip well when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Tipperary only start; absent for very lengthy period; effective 2 1/2m; more to come but probably one for handicaps. Fair effort when seventh of 19 at Tipperary on debut in April 2024, best watched on return.
2	2 (2) (33/1 +50%) Brave Endeavour		33 33/1(+50%)																															(2) Brave Endeavour 33/1, Improved a little from debut back from lay off when well beaten in a maiden hurdle here latest; effective 2 1/2m, acts on heavy; point winner but may need more time over hurdles. Point winner in 2023, was entitled to need the run here last month after a long absence.
18	18 (18) (50/1 +67%) Walk Win		50 50/1(+67%)																															(18) Walk Win 50/1, 21,000 euros breeze-up purchase by Jimmy Two Times; half-brother to Walkadina, very useful at 16f; yard has gone a long time without a winner. Third foal, half-brother to two winners, unlikely to make an immediate impact.
20	20 (20) (50/1 +38%) Blossom Trixie		50 50/1(+38%)																															(20) Blossom Trixie 50/1, 15,000 euros Soldier Of Fortune filly; half-sister to Ashtown Lad, smart at 26f over fences; may find this sharp enough test. Second reserve, half-sister to useful multiple scorers Beg To Differ and Ashtown Lad.
13	13 (13) (66/1 +56%) Liss Eile		66 66/1(+56%)																															(13) Liss Eile 66/1, May have found ground too testing when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel most recent; effective 2m, acts on good; plenty more needed. Not disgraced on hurdling debut at last August, completely tailed off at Clonmel last week.
12	12 (12) (80/1 +20%) La Rocca Lass		80 80/1(+20%)																															(12) La Rocca Lass 80/1, Continued in poor form down the field in a maiden hurdle here most recent; out of form in bumpers prior to that; hard to fancy. Placed only once in seven bumper starts, tailed off at huge odds in three maiden hurdles.
16	16 (16) (100/1 +0%) Shine Bright		100 100/1(+0%)																															(16) Shine Bright 100/1, Green on poor debut when well beaten in a 4yo bumper at Fairyhouse only start; off a long absence; all to prove now hurdling. 66-1 when tailed off in a bumper at Fairyhouse in December 2024, absent since, no appeal.
3	3 (3) (100/1 +20%) Calm Flight Ahead		100 100/1(+20%)																															(3) Calm Flight Ahead 100/1, Modest debut down the field in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown most recent; all to prove. Failed to complete in three point outings, in rear on hurdling debut, yard's second string.
4	4 (4) (100/1 +20%) Fenian Maxios		100 100/1(+20%)																															(4) Fenian Maxios 100/1, Failed to build on debut down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel most recent; looks one for further down the line. Has struggled in maidens over further here and at Clonmel, unlikely to feature.
7	7 (7) (100/1 +20%) Lucky Crystal		100 100/1(+20%)																															(7) Lucky Crystal 100/1, Showed nothing again when fourth beaten 150l in a maiden hurdle at Limerick latest; hard to fancy. Completely tailed off in three outings since December, no apparent chance.
10	10 (10) (100/1 +33%) Boston Breeze		100 100/1(+33%)																															(10) Boston Breeze 100/1, Failed to build on debut down the field in a maiden hurdle at Clonmel most recent; off a short-break; likely to need more time. Soundly beaten in maidens at Punchestown and Clonmel, no sign of winning potential.
19	19 (19) (125/1 -25%) Lady Boudica		125 125/1(-25%)																															(19) Lady Boudica 125/1, Shantaram filly; full-sister to Andashan, very useful at 21f over hurdles; probably best watched. First reserve, sister to bumper hurdle winner Andashan, dam dual hurdles winner.
14	14 (14) (125/1 +17%) Mind The Steps		125 125/1(+17%)																															(14) Mind The Steps 125/1, Pulled up in a maiden point at Belharbour recently; half sister to a hurdles winner; all to do. Half-sister to two French winners, pulled up in two point-to-point outings last month.
17	17 (17) (125/1 +17%) Strand Street Lass		125 125/1(+17%)																															(17) Strand Street Lass 125/1, Green and never travelled when down the field in a maiden hurdle at Killarney most recent; showed nothing in points or so far under rules. Pulled up in two point-to-points and in rear in two maiden hurdles, can be ruled out.

ARSLAN has been odds-on when finding one too good on his last two starts, but is taken to get the job done now. The Flat-bred was a creditable third at this track on his hurdling debut and his official rating of 120 sets the standard. Despite the fact he will be more suited by better ground later in the spring, he can land an ordinary contest. Front-runner Kentucky Beach was below-par last time and has a few pounds to find on ratings, but his solid handicap form makes him the main danger. Fixios shaped well over 2m4f on his only outing over hurdles and is open to improvement.

Twice beaten at odds-on Arslan may be vulnerable again. Slight preference is for FIXIOS who had a promising first run over hurdles

BATAILLON scored at Taunton on his penultimate start before the runner-up reversed the placings at the same track. However, the eight-year-old would have finished much closer but for a mistake at the last which saw him almost lose his rider and, despite a 3lb rise, this appears to be a very winnable contest on paper. Gyenyame can be forgiven his run at Exeter in December, while Kilbarry Hill appeals most of the remainder.

Drying ground and attractive marks refresh the appeal of both STANS THE MAN and Get Up Mush, preferred in that order.

HEATHER HONEY has won a third of all her starts over hurdles and that reliability combined with proven stamina earns her the vote. Spit Spot is another effective stayer who needs to be taken seriously, with this representing a drop in class. Freshers Week and Hard Dealt are still of low mileage and support in the betting for either could prove to be significant. Inflexible's past form is noteworthy and he shouldn't be underestimated, despite resuming for a new yard after a lengthy break.

The vast majority of these have a question to answer which leaves HEATHER HONEY (nap) as the clear solid option.

MONTU improved for stepping up in trip when filling the runner-up spot at Wolverhampton last week and arrives here 2lb well-in compared to future events. This appears to be an excellent opportunity for him to shed the maiden tag. Bergamo Gold forced a dead-heat for second at Chelmsford and may benefit from the extra couple of furlongs, while handicap debutant Bradbury heads the remainder.

Montu and Private Project can do better yet but BRADBURY appeals as a likely improver and he can make a winning handicap debut.

Jack Kennedy rode WESTERN WALK for the first time at Navan last month and Jonathan Sweeney's nine-year-old ran creditably in a Grade 2 contest over fences. Kennedy is again in the plate and his mount, who has run to a decent level in a novice chasing campaign this term, merits plenty of respect on this return to hurdling. If he can reproduce his form in competitive handicaps, he can get the better of Timeless Treaty, who has shown useful course form recently and now steps back up in trip. Amirite and Blizzard Of Oz look opposable on recent form.

Jack Kennedy's sole ride on the card is aboard WESTERN WALK and that in itself could turn out to be a clue

There is plenty to like about the manner in which BALLYMACKIE has flourished since joining Olly Murphy and the hat-trick seeking gelding is hard to oppose. After comprehensive successes at Leicester and Ayr, a further 7lb rise could be workable in this company. Duhallow Tommy and Royal Mer also have revised marks to contend with after last-time-out wins but should be competitive. Bottom-weight Another Folly is another to keep an eye on.

This can go to BALLYMACKIE (nap), who started off for Olly Murphy with two wins and could still have more improvement to come.

STUNG BY TARIFFS is bred to appreciate this sort of trip and looks worth chancing after qualifying for a workable opening mark with an improved third at Southwell. That was his best effort so far and the additional yardage could be ideal. Idaho Valley is consistent and the fitting of a tongue-tie has to be worth a try on the back of three placed efforts. Land Of Punt is upped in trip with cheekpieces added and is another handicap debutant to consider.

Tom Lacey's LAND OF PUNT took a good step forward when at Plumpton and is taken to make a winning handicap debut.

POTTERS PRINCE was not disgraced when filling fifth place on his handicap debut over 7f at Chelmsford in January and this step up in trip could bring about the improvement required to score. Villalobos is now 1lb lower than when fourth at Kempton last time and he should not be underestimated, while Danehill Star is the pick of the remainder.

Stephanie Cassidy's C&D scorer SO CHIC could prove the answer here having hinted at a revival when fifth at Wolverhampton last time out

From an in-form stable, JISCO DU BREM is a hopeful choice on his handicap debut. The seven-year-old won a good-ground bumper last summer but his trainer feels he'll handle softer conditions and his first run over hurdles, in a strong maiden at Galway in October, was promising. Lough Nigara can be tricky at the start but has been most consistent when consenting to jump off, and blinkers are now tried on the nine-year-old. A useful chaser when trained by the Moores in the UK, Jupiter Du Gite went well for a long way when fourth at Navan and is another for the shortlist.

Mark Fahey's yard is ticking over nicely and CAN HAPPEN looks a likely improver stepping up in trip on his handicap debut

Le Cold Grey, a half-brother to three-time Grade 1 winner and Grand National third Gaillard Du Mesnil, should make an impact when he goes jumping and appeals after a respectable third when introduced at Lingfield. However, THE LIGHTMAKER is more speedily bred and shades preference after a surprise near-miss on debut at Chepstow in December. Octo Gane and He's Something are others with potential to go forward, while Nevada Samba boasts a stout NH pedigree and is an interesting newcomer.

Dan Horsford's THE LIGHTMAKER was second in what is turning out to be a good Chepstow race in December and he looks he one to beat.

BEARWITH only went up 3lb for winning over C&D last month, appearing to benefit from a drop back in trip, and a repeat of that performance may well suffice. Monty Beau has been very consistent during his career to date and another solid run is expected, while Mao Shang Wong's recent efforts give him every chance of being in the mix.

Tthe vote goes to the lightly raced and consistent 5yo MONTY BEAU, who may still be capable of better.

NIGHTFLYER looked a bright prospect when he made a winning debut at Catterick and given the four-year-old's weight-for-age allowance means he gets weight from all bar one of his rivals, he could be well placed to follow up. Turbocharged also showed promise when introduced at Newbury in November and should be capable of building on that third-placed finish. The Flat-bred Oykel Bridge and point-to-point winner Locker Boum are others to monitor in the betting.

An interesting event with a few to consider but LOCKER BOUM's Irish point form got a right boost in an Ayr bumper in January.

GALAXY WONDER has run well in defeat on all three starts since sharing the spoils at Wolverhampton on Boxing Day and his latest second at the same venue suggests that he could be hard to beat in a race of this nature. Eutropia has filled third place three times this year already and is likely to be in the mix once again. Masqool is also noted.

Tony Carroll holds a strong hand and the return of headgear can see MASQOOL get the better of stablemate Galaxy Wonder.

Just touched off at Limerick on debut; the form looks decent; big claims for team Mullins.

Some promising types from top yards make this a competitive affair, with Willie Mullins' LOOKING FOR EIGHT getting the vote. A half-brother to dual bumper winner and smart novice hurdler Sortudo, he was second to a useful prospect at Limerick at a time when many stable runners were needing their seasonal debuts. Point-to-point winner Thinkitdontjinxit made a bold bid from the front until headed close home here last month, while Seven Towers travelled well when third at Fairyhouse and collateral formlines involving the winner would give him a decent chance.

Looking For Eight has an obvious chance for the champion trainer but the form of SEVEN TOWERS stacks up well and he's fancied here

ESPONA BAY has filled the runner-up berth in each of his three previous starts on the all-weather and has shown enough to suggest a handicap at this level is within his range. A recent switch in stables could have sweetened him up and a 2lb rise for his latest effort looks manageable. Arishka's Dream is 2lb well-in and must have every chance of exploiting that. Marra Donna and handicap newcomer Tactical Blitz are others to consider.

The choice is ARISHKA'S DREAM who has winning form at Wolverhampton and is 2lb well in following his narrow defeat on handicap debut.

Fourth of 12 in a red-hot Newmarket maiden last July; has been found a golden opportunity.
3	3 (3) (5/1 -11%) Wuood		5 5/1(-11%)																															(3) Wuood 5/1, Night Of Thunder colt; dam placed at 7f related to the likes of Diego Velazquez, Broome and Point Lonsdale; respected on debut and should show up well. Faces a useful rival in Billecart, but still interesting to see what the market says.
4	4 (4) (28/1 -100%) Too Darn Spicy		28 28/1(-100%)																															(4) Too Darn Spicy 28/1, 2,000gns breeze-up purchase by Too Darn Hot; dam useful at 10f; top course trainer but looks up against it for win purposes on debut. Market should indicate what is expected on debut.
2	2 (2) (80/1 -21%) Shimmering Spirit		80 80/1(-21%)																															(2) Shimmering Spirit 80/1, Modest debut when 8 1/2l fourth in a novice here first-time out; sire sprinter, dam wanted middle-distances; may need more time and low-grade handicaps. Didn't run badly when fourth on his debut here a fortnight ago, but unlikely to win this.

BILLECART, who cost 380,000gns as a yearling, is hard to overlook. The son of Night Of Thunder was fourth behind subsequent Tattersalls Stakes winner Distant Storm on his Newmarket debut last July. Considering the runner-up in that race won the Futurity at the Curragh, while eight other winners emerged from the 12-runner field, the form could hardly be better. Wuood is an attractively-bred newcomer, while Too Darn Spicy, who was picked up for a song by shrewd connections, is related to some smart types and is more appealing than Shimmering Spirit.

The looks a golden opportunity for BILLECART who showed plenty of promise when fourth on his Newmarket debut last July.

Eighth win on spin at Southwell last month; seventh there latest but can't be ruled out.

Doctor Khan Junior returned to winning ways at Southwell at the end of January, but more is required after a 3lb rise from the handicapper. With that in mind, the vote goes to NIKOVO. The seven-year-old has been knocking on the door with a string of consistent efforts and this might be the time to catch him against arguably weaker opposition than he has faced of late. Eldrickjones and Talis Evolvere are others to consider.

Last year's winner NIKOVO (nap) signalled he is ready to go in again when a promising Kempton third in a race not run to suit.

DREAM FOREVER gave the impression that an extra furlong would be right up his street after improving on his juvenile form when runner-up here last month. Jedd O'Keeffe's charge appears to have more upside than the majority of his rivals and gets the vote to strike. Panthere Noir has been gelded ahead of his first run since December and that might yield improvement. Popty Ping and Mereside Princess complete the shortlist.

Archie Watson's KINGOFTHECARNIVAL brings a fair bit of potential and is taken to emerge on top now starting out in handicap company.

11	11 (11) (11/1 -83%) Harb		11 11/1(-83%)																															(11) Harb 11/1, Back to best landing a handicap by a head off a 3lb lower mark here last time; suited by 5/6f, acts on any; chance after small rise. Capitalised on a reduced mark when scoring over C&D latest; back up 3lb but well in mix.
9	9 (9) (14/1 -40%) Blue Force		14 14/1(-40%)																															(9) Blue Force 14/1, Bit keen up in trip and didn't last home when fifth at Southwell latest; effective 5/6f, almost all form on AW; remains above last win mark. Dual C&D winner; free-going fifth at Southwell latest; can make presence felt back at 5f.
8	8 (8) (14/1 -155%) Digital		14 14/1(-155%)																															(8) Digital 14/1, Ran to form second beaten a head off 66 last time, 2lb higher here; effective at 5/6f, acts on soft, good to firm and AW, goes well off the front; respected after small rise. Narrowly denied fourth C&D success two weeks ago; up 2lb but he's not taken lightly.
7	7 (7) (16/1 -60%) Albegone		16 16/1(-60%)																															(7) Albegone 16/1, Ran to best beaten a neck off a 1lb lower mark here last time; suited by 5f, acts on soft good to firm and AW; chance if building on latest. Bounced back to form with C&D second last month; must enter calculations nudged up 1lb.
6	6 (6) (22/1 -38%) Dark Kestrel		22 22/1(-38%)																															(6) Dark Kestrel 22/1, Lacked pace but ran to form albeit finishing down the field here last time; wide draw; effective 5/6f, acts on a sound surface, probably better AW; can bounce back. Not at all discredited when close eighth here two weeks ago; needs considering.
4	4 (4) (33/1 -32%) Pop Star		33 33/1(-32%)																															(4) Pop Star 33/1, Again below form beaten 3 1/4l off a 2lb higher mark here last time; usually held up; effective 5/6f, acts on any; needs more than of late. Yet to hit top form for new yard, last of nine over C&D two weeks ago; others preferred.

Harb (first) and Digital (second) are closely matched based on their meeting over C&D two weeks ago and are likely to go well once again. That said, preference is for ALBEGONE, who showed much more when a neck second here and the veteran makes plenty of appeal off just 1lb higher. Water Of Leith and Our Absent Friends are others to note.

Lots with chances but LION'S HOUSE looked unlucky not to add to a recent C&D win when third at Wolverhampton and can gain compensation.

ESQUE ELEGANCE was second in this sort of company over C&D two starts ago and also hit the crossbar in a handicap when last seen. Based on that evidence, the four-year-old looks the one to beat. Woodrafff is another with strong form claims, while Wheres The Crumpet edges out Sir Maxi and Starshot to be the pick of the remainder.

Stephen Hanlon's ESQUE ELEGANCE is taken to build on her very good recent C&D second (form been franked) and gain her first win.

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.
