1	2 1st (2) (9/1 -29%) The Dark Edge		9 9/1(-29%)																															(2) The Dark Edge 9/1, Improved further after 5 months off when landing a 9-runner handicap hurdle at Plumpton (20.5f, good to soft) in September. Creditable in-frame efforts on next 3 starts but his run of good form came to a halt when only seventh at Newcastle 24 days ago. Plumpton winner; below par the last twice and stamina for quite this far isn't proven.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 +76%) Just Four Fame		6 6/1(+76%)																															(7) Just Four Fame 6/1, Third in an Aintree bumper in May 2022 but hurdling efforts have been uninspiring in the main. Readily passed over. Continues to fall in the weights but he's had a few chances now in handicaps.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/2 -22%) Honey Jack		5.5 11/2(-22%)																															(1) Honey Jack 11/2, Took a step forward when getting off the mark in 3m Taunton handicap (good to soft) in November. Said to have made a respiratory noise when only fifth back there in January and sports a first-time tongue after a further 10 weeks off. Improved form for the win and made a noise last time; now has a tongue-tie fitted.
4	11 4th (11) (9/2 +36%) Luna Run		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(11) Luna Run 9/2, Poor maiden but reached the frame on all 4 handicap hurdle starts in the first half of the season, although she was reported to have made a respiratory noise on 3 of those occasions. Returns from a 141-day break minus the tongue tie she's worn on her last 2 starts. 0-9 but there are races in her off this mark and good ground could be ideal.
5th	12 5th (12) (125/1 -56%) The Last Melon		125 125/1(-56%)																															(12) The Last Melon 125/1, Poor veteran. Off almost 4 years prior to this season and has shown very little. No worthwhile form over fences and hurdles since returning from a long absence.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 +30%) One Man Party		14 14/1(+30%)																															(9) One Man Party 14/1, Poor maiden. Ran his best race when second of 6 in 3m Fakenham handicap last month but not in anything like the same form when fading into a remote seventh at Hereford 19 days ago. Runner-up two starts back but then finished tailed off at Hereford; now 0-15.
7th	8 7th (8) (15/2 +66%) Newtonian		7.5 15/2(+66%)																															(8) Newtonian 15/2, Got off the mark over 25f here last May. Also posted creditable in-frame efforts in the autumn but has been below par since, finishing a distant fourth at Hereford last time. Has a first-time tongue tie added to his regular cheekpieces here. Should have run better only 19 days ago at Hereford when back on good ground.
10	10 |PU| (10) (9/2 -100%) Lizzie Rey		4.5 9/2(-100%)																															(10) Lizzie Rey 9/2, Much improved for the addition of cheekpieces when springing a 33/1 surprise in 3m Southwell handicap 10 days ago, staying on well to score by 4 lengths. That was a conditional jockeys' event so she can run off the same mark again. Escapes a penalty for her recent 3m win at Southwell when in new cheekpieces.
3	3 |PU| (3) (13/2 -18%) Seasmoke		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(3) Seasmoke 13/2, Prominent racer who made it third time lucky in handicaps at Market Rasen (20.5f, good) last May. Better effort since returning from a break when 2 lengths third of 13 over 2¾m at Stratford 17 days ago. Up in trip. Considered. Good run last time but there are some stamina doubts over this longer distance.
6	6 |PU| (6) (15/2 +38%) De Vega's Warrior		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(6) De Vega's Warrior 15/2, Frustrating maiden on the Flat and now 0-7 over hurdles. Did place in a couple of handicaps around the turn of the year. Also in the process of running well when falling 2 out at Taunton latest but his jumping is becoming a concern. Running well when crashing out two from home at Taunton 17 days ago.
5	5 |PU| (5) (16/1 -33%) Lyness Dancer		16 16/1(-33%)																															(5) Lyness Dancer 16/1, Made her first impact when third on 3¼m Fontwell handicap debut 3 weeks ago, leading for a long way under an enterprising ride. Needs to build on that now. More competitive on recent handicap debut when beaten under 8l at Fontwell (3m2f).

LIZZIE REY showed a big chunk of improvement in first-time cheekpieces when scoring by four lengths in this grade at Southwell last time. Richard Phillips' eight-year-old makes only her fourth start in a handicap and remains unexposed over this distance, so it would be no surprise to see her complete a double. Lyness Dancer was third over this trip at Fontwell on her latest outing and should remain competitive off a 1lb lower rating. Of the remainder, Honey Jack makes the most appeal.

LIZZIE REY escapes a penalty for last week's Southwell success and will take a bit of stopping if the cheekpieces continue to have a positive effect. Seasmoke could be a threat if his stamina holds over this significantly longer trip. Honey Jack is another likely to have a say if the addition of a tongue tie helps him to recapture the form he showed when successful at Taunton in November.

Lizzie Rey has no penalty so has to be feared but HONEY JACK is now tongue tied after making a noise last time at Taunton.

1	3 1st (3) (6/4 +55%) Salley Gardens		1.5 6/4(+55%)																															(3) Salley Gardens 6/4, Fair hurdles/C&D chase winner who ran up to his best when second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.6f) in January. Not in same form at Taunton last time but no surprise to see a better showing given his low-mileage profile over fences now re-united with Sean Bowen. Mixed fortunes in short previous stint over fences in summer 2022 but he's not ruled out.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/4 -83%) Tommy Cullen		2.75 11/4(-83%)																															(1) Tommy Cullen 11/4, Appeared well-served by return to less testing ground when opening chase account at Doncaster (16.3f) in February and bolstered sound course record when second from 7 lb higher mark back there 25 days ago. Respected as an in-form sort back up in trip. In top form at favourite course Doncaster; leading candidate if he's as good here.
4	4 |F| (4) (11/8 +69%) Stringtoyourbow		1.375 11/8(+69%)																															(4) Stringtoyourbow 11/8, Good winner of handicaps here/Musselburgh late last year and dispelled a lesser effort when third of 8 in novices' handicap at Wetherby (19.4f, heavy) in February. Quicker ground here no problem and he's worth a second look from an easing mark. Two wins at end of last year & today's return to better ground could be just what he needs.

TOMMY CULLEN was only narrowly denied when trying to follow up February's Doncaster success at the same venue earlier this month. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give Matt Crawley's seven-year-old a big chance in this company. The rest all have questions to answer right now, but Stringtoyourbow edges out Salley Gardens to be the pick of them.

A previous C&D winner, SALLEY GARDENS has acquitted himself well on 2 of his 4 starts over hurdles this season and, returned to larger obstacles from a workable mark, he could be worth siding with to bag this small-field affair re-united with Sean Bowen. Fellow course winner Stringtoyourbow may emerge next best, ahead of another in-form sort, Tommy Cullen.

The return to better ground could be ideal for STRINGTOYOURBOW and he is taken to add to his two wins at the end of last year.

2	11 2nd (11) (7/2 +30%) Western Fold		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(11) Western Fold 7/2, Useful winner at 17f over hurdles. Found improvement in this sphere when creditable third of 15 in novice chase (16/1) at Naas (20.1f, soft) 18 days ago. May be capable of better yet. Two-time hurdles winner, 0-4 over fences and rated 134, held by Lombron on Gowran form.
3	6 3rd (6) (17/2 +23%) Maidenstreetprince		8.5 17/2(+23%)																															(6) Maidenstreetprince 17/2, Fairly useful chaser. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 7 in minor event chase at Leopardstown (17f, good to soft, 9/1) 24 days ago. Others preferred. 1-8 over hurdles, 0-6 over fences and rated 125, vulnerable to less exposed rivals.

Off 11 months. Makes chase debut. First run for yard after leaving Liam G. O'Brien. Work to do. Chasing debutant, 3-19 over hurdles, new yard, may need this run and softer ground, watch.

7th	9 7th (9) (40/1 +50%) Rockbrook		40 40/1(+50%)																															(9) Rockbrook 40/1, Fairly useful hurdler. 2 wins from 4 runs this season.

Paul Townend sides with RATH GAUL BOY and the Well Chosen gelding is unexposed in this sphere. He was a touch keen when third to Springt De La Mare on his debut over fences at Punchestown last month. He improved for a run last year and this better ground may suit him. Stablemate Lombron has run a couple of solid races over fences to date and is entitled to be a big player as well. Western Fold has a decent mark of 134 and has experience on his side. He also has to be respected.

RATH GAUL BOY made a pleasing chase debut at Punchestown last month and is the choice of Paul Townend. He gets the nod. Dancingondaceiling and Lombron are feared most.

If LOMBRON repeats the level of form he has shown on his last two runs he is the one they all have to beat.

1	6 1st (6) (85/40 +39%) Media Mogul		2.125 85/40(+39%)																															(6) Media Mogul 85/40, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who took another step forward when good second of 6 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 23 days ago. Cheekpieces go on for the 1st time and interesting with the prospect of more to come. Unexposed 4yo who had a near-miss in a Newcastle handicap (1m4f) last time; respected.
2	4 2nd (4) (11/4 -38%) It's A Love Thing		2.75 11/4(-38%)																															(4) It's A Love Thing 11/4, Took advantage of much-reduced mark at Newcastle (10.2f) and confirmed he's right back at the top of his game when following up in 8-runner handicap at this course (9.5f) 5 days ago, readily. Needs considering turned out quickly under a penalty. Resurgent 7yo who is well treated under a penalty for his win here last time; key player.
3	3 3rd (3) (15/2 -88%) Upepo		7.5 15/2(-88%)																															(3) Upepo 15/2, Three wins from 12 runs last year and back on the scoresheet in 9-runner handicap at this C&D 30 days ago, well on top finish. 4 lb rise makes things tougher but respected as an in-form sort. Made it 5-16 on AW when scoring over C&D last month; respected up 4lb.
4	2 4th (2) (12/1 -50%) Naomhi		12 12/1(-50%)																															(2) Naomhi 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 10/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at this course (9.5f), not seen to best effect in a modestly-run affair. Return to this longer trip expected to suit and better showing anticipated under Hollie Doyle. Unexposed 5yo and she's a possible improver back up in trip after a break.
5th	7 5th (7) (7/2 +30%) Come On John		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(7) Come On John 7/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. 5/4, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 6 days ago, staying on. Being kept very busy and likely he can give a good account once more Hold-up performer who has been in good form recently including a C&D win; shortlisted.
6th	1 6th (1) (80/1 -142%) Cogital		80 80/1(-142%)																															(1) Cogital 80/1, Fairly useful handicapper who scored twice during a productive 2023 campaign. However, absent 20 months before coming in last of 11 in handicap at Kempton (12f) in December. This should reveal more. Back from long absence when tailed off at Kempton (1m4f) in December; opposable.

It's A Love Thing has to be respected following two wins earlier in the month, but marginal preference is for MEDIA MOGUL. Ed Walker's gelding was only beaten a head into second at Newcastle last time and the first-time application of cheekpieces may bring about further progression. Upepo scored over C&D a month ago and is another with valid form claims.

A few in-form sorts in opposition, including low-mileage 4-y-o MEDIA MOGUL who marked himself down as a sure-fire future winner when finding only a similarly unexposed rival too strong at Newcastle 23 days ago (the pair clear). He gets the nod over the hat-trick seeking It's A Love Thing. Naomhi is another to keep an eye on given his lightly-raced profile.

The vote goes to the resurgent IT'S A LOVE THING (nap) who is well treated under a penalty for his comfortable win here on Saturday.

1	3 1st (3) (10/3 +26%) Ceolwulf		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(3) Ceolwulf 10/3, Made an encouraging return from a 16-month absence when third at Sedgefield last winter and proved he retains plenty ability on return from nearly another year off when runner-up at Leicester in February, sticking to his task admirably. In the mix having been given 6 weeks ahead of this. Had subsequent winner Yes And Yes behind when second to a Pipe improver at Leicester.
2	7 2nd (7) (12/1 +25%) King Of The Hill		12 12/1(+25%)																															(7) King Of The Hill 12/1, Maiden/hurdler/chaser who not for the first time appeared to find 3m taxing his stamina when pulled up at Uttoxeter in June of last year. This rates a more suitable assignment back from 9 months off and pick of his exploits suggest he's capable of making an impact from this sort of mark. Has placed form in this discipline but has been absent since pulling up last June.
3	4 3rd (4) (2/1 +0%) Yes And Yes		2 2/1(+0%)																															(4) Yes And Yes 2/1, Maiden hurdler who was much sharper with her reappearance behind her when readily off the mark in 8-runner handicap chase at Chepstow (19.5f) 11 days ago, the return to a sounder surface seemingly a big factor. Big shout with a repeat under a penalty Appreciated the good ground when a convincing winner at Chepstow; penalised.
4	5 4th (5) (4/1 +20%) Zmiinyi		4 4/1(+20%)																															(5) Zmiinyi 4/1, Bettered hurdles form at first attempt over fences in race that worked out well when runner-up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (21.4f) in November. Next run best overlooked and whilst absent since pulling up at Exeter (19.2f) in December, it's feasible to think he can get back on track. Second in November so the ability is there should he be all the better for a break.
5th	2 5th (2) (11/1 -10%) Micro Millions		11 11/1(-10%)																															(2) Micro Millions 11/1, Won an Irish point and made the frame 3 times over hurdles for Dan Skelton last term. Low-key efforts first 3 starts over fences for this yard but better signs from sliding mark of late, run out of a place late when fourth at Hereford (25.2f) 3 weeks ago. Not dismissed down in trip. Beaten 14l and about 10l in his last two races and needs extra.
6th	1 6th (1) (4/1 -14%) Glimpse Of Glory		4 4/1(-14%)																															(1) Glimpse Of Glory 4/1, Fair maiden hurdler at best who got back on track sent chasing in first-time blinkers when a length third of 7 novices' handicap at Ludlow (2m) 5 weeks ago. Didn't entirely convince he was putting it all in then but he's capable of playing part from this mark. Back up up in trip. Close third on his chase debut but he did look a hard ride in the first-time blinkers.

Ceolwulf occupied the runner-up berth at Leicester last month and has to be respected off just a 2lb higher mark. However, it may pay to side with YES AND YES, who appreciated the return to a sounder surface when victorious at Chepstow on his latest outing and now has a 7lb penalty to carry. With the likelihood of more to come on only his fourth start over fences, he could prove difficult to beat. Glimpse Of Glory completes the shortlist.

YES AND YES showed much improved form away from testing ground when readily opening his account in an 8-runner handicap chase at Chepstow 11 days ago (value for double the winning margin) and he holds sound follow-up claims on that evidence under a penalty. Zimiinyi, on return from a break, and Glimpse of Glory, provided the headgear has the desired effect second time, are others to consider.

The suggestion is YES AND YES (nap) who does have a penalty for winning at Chepstow but the good ground made a big difference to him.

4	3 4th (3) (11/1 -10%) Harmony Heights		11 11/1(-10%)																															(3) Harmony Heights 11/1, Made the frame on both point outings.

5th	6 5th (6) (10/1 -122%) Misty Sunrise		10 10/1(-122%)																															(6) Misty Sunrise 10/1, €58,000 Blue Bresil mare.

Respected newcomer from a yard with a good bumper strike-rate. 58,000euros 3yo; dam Flat winner; in good hands; could play a leading role on debut.

Has switched to David Pipe ahead of this first outing for 5 months. Potential improver. Encouraging fourth of seven on debut at Punchestown and the form has worked out well.
7th	5 7th (5) (14/1 -100%) Miss Tinkerbell		14 14/1(-100%)																															(5) Miss Tinkerbell 14/1, 10/1 and blinkered, fourth of 8 in bumper at Wincanton (heavy) on debut 56 days ago. More will be needed. Fair fourth on debut at Wincanton and she's open to improvement; a possible.

SERVICE MINIMUM confirmed the promise she displayed on debut when second at Ludlow and Dan Skelton's mare is clearly the one to beat on the back of that performance. Miss Tinkerbell was well held on her racecourse bow, but is likely to improve for the experience and should not be discounted. The shortlist is completed by Rock Sensation, Harley's Pride and Misty Sunrise.

ROCK SENSATION was too keen to last home under testing conditions on her Uttoxeter debut on New Year's Eve but the strength behind her in the market on that occasion suggests she's well regarded by a good stable and she could prove a different proposition faced with a sounder surface this time. Service Minimum and Scavengers Reign have the form to figure, while Misty Sunrise is an interesting newcomer for the Olly Murphy stable.

The Dan Skelton-trained SERVICE MINIMUM has shown strong form in defeat on both starts and can get off the mark.

Looks competitive on form. Decent form as a hurdler/chaser before a break, prefers good ground but on a fair mark.
3	10 3rd (10) (13/2 +35%) Pebble Bleu		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(10) Pebble Bleu 13/2, Creditable fourth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (22.2f, good, 7/1) 12 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Merits consideration. Punchestown win last autumn came on good ground, fourth off lower hurdles mark on latest.
4	7 4th (7) (9/2 -13%) Bite That		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(7) Bite That 9/2, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap chase at Wexford (19.4f, good to soft, 8/1) 10 days ago. Scored easily there so he's not taken lightly despite an 8 lb weights hike. Reeled off four seconds in a row before 8l Wexford win, could go well off 8lb higher.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +21%) Maciver		5.5 11/2(+21%)																															(5) Maciver 11/2, C&D winner. 4 wins from 7 runs this season. Career best when winning 15-runner handicap chase at Limerick (22.8f, good to soft, 5/1) 14 days ago, always holding on. Tongue strap back on. Firmly in the picture. Bids for a five-timer here, has gone up two stone for three chases wins, respected.
6th	11 6th (11) (28/1 +30%) Robyndeglory		28 28/1(+30%)																															(11) Robyndeglory 28/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 16/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap hurdle at this course (24f, heavy) 28 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Very hard to make a case for. On a long losing run over hurdles, poor at this venue on latest after good Punchestown run.
7th	9 7th (9) (9/2 +18%) Doonbeg Don		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(9) Doonbeg Don 9/2, Winner in chase at Galway in October. Very good second of 8 in handicap chase at Down Royal (20.4f, good to soft, 6/1) 65 days ago. Ought to go close nudged up 2lb . Has potential for further progress as a chaser to back up Galway win and Down Royal second.
8th	2 8th (2) (12/1 +25%) Beau Walking		12 12/1(+25%)																															(2) Beau Walking 12/1, 20/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (27f, soft) 35 days ago, pulled up 3 out. Modest chase form, faced tough task from 10lb out of the handicap at Punchestown last time.
9th	8 9th (8) (12/1 +0%) Jump The Shark		12 12/1(+0%)																															(8) Jump The Shark 12/1, 1 win from 3 runs this season. Pulled up in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (21f, soft, 10/1) 70 days ago, driven from 3 out. Yard having good spell so could bounce back. Downpatrick winner last spring; lame on next start, jumped poorly at Fairyhouse on return.
4	4 |PU| (4) (12/1 0%) Harvey's Quay		12 12/1(0%)																															(4) Harvey's Quay 12/1, 9/1, fell 1st in handicap chase at Leopardstown (21.5f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Others more persuasive. Navan fourth was encouraging, confidence may have been dented by a fall at Leopardstown.
14	14 |PU| (14) (16/1 +0%) Walkonthebriteside		16 16/1(+0%)																															(14) Walkonthebriteside 16/1, Winner in hurdle at Wexford in August. Twelfth of 15 in handicap chase (9/2) at Wexford (25f, good to soft) on debut over fences. Off 6 months. Won a 3m hurdle at Wexford last August, veterinary excuse at the same venue on chase debut.
1	1 |PU| (1) (40/1 -150%) Tupelo Mississippi		40 40/1(-150%)																															(1) Tupelo Mississippi 40/1, Latest win in chase at Cartmel in July. 4/1, pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, good to firm), folding 5 out. Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Brian Ellison. Five wins for Brian Ellison including a handicap chase, pulled up in a recent point.

A competitive event and DOONBEG DON may prove the pick stepping back up in trip. He ran into a well-handicapped rival in Don't Talk at Down Royal back in January and that rival went on to frank the form. That was over an extended 2m4f and the Soldier Of Fortune gelding may be better suited by this extra yardage, having won over a similar trip on his chase debut at Galway last October. Maciver comes here in tip-top form, but a 9lb rise for his narrow Limerick victory makes things tougher. Bite That won easily at Wexford and also has to be on the shortlist.

A few with chances but DOONBEG DON rates the pick of these weights on the back of a very good Down Royal second last time out so gets the vote. Both Emily In Paris and Bite That rate big threats though, while Pebble Bleu, Maciver and Baldur's Gate need factoring in too.

Winner of his last four races, Maciver deserves respect. However, preference is for the relatively inexperienced DOONBEG DON

No forlorn hope. Two handicap wins as 2yo; rarely shone since but promising for new in-form yard latest.
3	9 3rd (9) (17/2 -89%) Second Collection		8.5 17/2(-89%)																															(9) Second Collection 17/2, Four-time course winner who posted a good second of 10 to My Turn Now in minor event here (5.1f, 7/2) 10 days ago. Enjoys a 5 lb weights pull here so holds leading claims. Two C&D wins but mostly runs over 5f now; creditable 2nd in similar C&D race in February.
4	12 4th (12) (11/2 +54%) Ustath		5.5 11/2(+54%)																															(12) Ustath 11/2, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. 14/1, creditable fourth of 11 in minor event at this C&D 12 days ago. Needs considering. Little between him and May Remain on C&D form 12 days ago; B Loughnane up this time.

Seventeen runs since last win in 2024. 20/1, good second of 11 in minor event at this C&D 12 days ago. In the picture.

In the mix once more. Won 4 of her last 9 starts, latest over 5f here; good chance back at 6f.

My Turn Now had a length to spare over SECOND COLLECTION when they clashed over 5f here 10 days ago and should go well again. However, the latter is already a dual C&D winner and, armed with a 5lb pull in the weights, she can turn the form around back over this trip. Tommytwohoots and Ustath also have winning form here and are other each-way alternatives to consider.

A case can be made for a few of these but SECOND COLLECTION rates the pick of the weights so is fancied to bag a fifth course win and turn the tables on recent conqueror My Turn Now on these more advantageous terms. Michael Attwater's mare still looks the chief threat, although Tommytwohoots, Anglesey Lad, Ustath and The Cola Kid all enter the reckoning too.

My Turn Now has plenty going for her despite the penalty but perhaps this is the day when things fall right for ANGLESEY LAD.

1	2 1st (2) (15/8 -25%) Holeshot		1.875 15/8(-25%)																															(2) Holeshot 15/8, Left handicap debut fifth well behind when showing much improved form over a longer trip latest, making all to land an 8-runner handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, soft) in taking fashion. Has to contend with a 10 lb rise and step up in grade but unlikely we've seen the best of this unexposed type. Back from a break to make a lot of the running at Taunton and the form has been franked.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/4 +44%) Chief Sunday		2.25 9/4(+44%)																															(1) Chief Sunday 9/4, Progressive type was denied at a hat-trick when runner-up at Ludlow last month (15.8f), a race that is working out extremely well with the first and third having won next time out. Could well be more to come from this lightly-raced sort. Hat-trick bid came up shy at Ludlow but the winner benefited from a bold ride.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +20%) Denzil		4 4/1(+20%)																															(5) Denzil 4/1, Landed a 3-runner race on debut at Stratford, and despite being outclassed at Listed level on next start, bounced back with a brace of runners-up efforts. Easy to back when last on handicap debut but could be interesting if market vibes are more positive in receipt of a handy 4-y-o allowance. Very weak in the betting when tailed off on his handicap debut at Doncaster.
4	4 |PU| (4) (11/4 0%) What's One More		2.75 11/4(0%)																															(4) What's One More 11/4, Lightly-raced mare often races keenly (including when landing a bumper last season) and was again too free when tackling a longer trip on second start in handicap company latest (Fontwell 19.1f), failing to see out her race after making smooth headway. Big player if relaxing back over 2 miles. Beaten favourite last time but drops back in distance here and she retains potential.

Holeshot bolted up over 2m3f at Taunton last month, but preference is for CHIEF SUNDAY. Nigel Twiston-Davies' gelding came up short in his hat-trick bid last time, but that form has worked out well and a further 3lb rise in the handicap might underestimate him. What's One More weakened having been keen over 2m3f at Fontwell three weeks ago, so a drop in trip could aid her chance.

A case can be made for each of the quintet, the strongest for smooth-travelling WHAT’S ONE MORE who could prove well-handicapped if she can settle better back at 2 miles, in a race that may well be run to suit. Chief danger is the unexposed Holeshot who won in the style of an improving horse last month and he might be able to cope with this step up in grade and sharper test, while Chief Sunday has to be respected with the form of his latest second working out particularly well.

Holeshot and Chief Sunday have solid chances but WHAT'S ONE MORE appeals as a mare with more to offer.

1	4 1st (4) (4/11 +56%) Koapey		0.363636 4/11(+56%)																															(4) Koapey 4/11, Fair form when second only start in bumpers and has shaped with plenty of encouragement in filling the same spot both outings over hurdles, going off too hard in 11-runner minor event at Newbury (16.3f) on most recent outing in December. Remains open to improvement and has leading claims. Runner-up on all three starts and holds stand-out form claims today.
2	8 2nd (8) (25/1 -56%) Wind Your Neck In		25 25/1(-56%)																															(8) Wind Your Neck In 25/1, Hadn't beaten a rival in 2 Flat starts for the yard and was far too free on Newcastle hurdling debut. Useful on the Flat at his best but tailed off on recent hurdle debut at Newcastle.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/2 -33%) Dunskay		2.5 5/2(-33%)																															(1) Dunskay 5/2, Looked good prospect when winning a couple of bumpers last season. However, shaped as if amiss on Ffos Las hurdle debut/return in January and, while he fared better at Warwick subsequently, he again didn't really see his race out. Two-time bumper winner; fair third on second hurdle start and open to further improvement.
4	10 4th (10) (7/1 +0%) Saviour		7 7/1(+0%)																															(10) Saviour 7/1, Fair maiden on the Flat (often raced freely) and from the family of a useful hurdler. Shaped better than on hurdling debut when third in 7-runner juvenile at Doncaster (16,6f) in December but could do with settling down a bit. Fair third at Doncaster on second hurdle start and he's an each-way contender.
5th	6 5th (6) (40/1 +39%) Secret Vino		40 40/1(+39%)																															(6) Secret Vino 40/1, Sent off 66/1 when well held in a Worcester bumper on debut in July. Well beaten at 66-1 on debut last July and probably best watched on first run since.
6th	9 6th (9) (33/1 +34%) Carrigeen Ardisia		33 33/1(+34%)																															(9) Carrigeen Ardisia 33/1, Well held only outing in bumpers and didn't achieve much on recent Catterick hurdle debut. Soundly beaten on both starts and others are preferred.
7	7 |PU| (7) (150/1 -20%) Tommy Tucker		150 150/1(-20%)																															(7) Tommy Tucker 150/1, Has shown nothing in maiden/novice hurdles. Massive odds and yet to complete in three runs over hurdles.
3	3 |PU| (3) (250/1 -100%) Kaboul Manhattan		250 250/1(-100%)																															(3) Kaboul Manhattan 250/1, Showed nothing when pulled up in maiden hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) on debut last month. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Pulled up at 150-1 on last month's debut in maiden hurdle at Huntingdon.

KOAPEY has done little wrong in filling the runner-up spot in each of his three previous starts and can take advantage of dropping back down in class. He simply went off too quickly, failing to last home at Newbury most recently, but Sean Bowen taking over in the saddle could provide the missing ingredient. Dual bumper winner Dunskay is feared most, although Saviour has scope for progression and is dangerous to underestimate.

KOAPEY has shaped with plenty of encouragement in finishing runner-up on both starts over hurdles, and this looks an excellent opportunity to make it third time lucky. Dunskay has been underwhelming so far over hurdles considering his bumper form, but did at least show more second time up at Warwick earlier in the month and rates the main threat ahead of Saviour, who could do with settling down.

This should be a good opportunity for KOAPEY, who has bumped into some good horses when runner-up on his three starts.

A moderate looking contest and Cian Collins might be able to take it with point-to-point winner CAPTAIN P. The Jet Away gelding took a five-year-old maiden at Tyrella in January and the horse that chased him home has run really well to be placed in two maiden hurdles since. Pour One More has produced some nice bumper runs this season, including when fourth at Limerick recently. He could be a danger on his jumping debut. Rockonliam was well supported when sixth on his first outing for Henry de Bromhead at Tramore on New Year's Day and may get closer now in this company.

HOWDOYALIKEHERHOME holds the clear edge on form and is fancied to bely his absence and make a winning start for Gordon Elliott here. Rockonliam has better days ahead of him and could emerge as the chief threat, although Captain P, Be Positive and Tsavo Park can all have a say too.

ROCKONLIAM disappointed at Tramore on New Year's Day when strong in the betting but the stable is in much better form now

1	7 1st (7) (9/2 +18%) Nordic Glory		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(7) Nordic Glory 9/2, C&D winner. Latest win here in March. Respectable sixth of 11 to Lion's Dream in minor event at this C&D (2/1) 12 days ago. Enters calculations. C&D win this month before a lesser effort behind Lion's Dream latest; can rebound.
2	3 2nd (3) (28/1 -133%) Banana		28 28/1(-133%)																															(3) Banana 28/1, Long-standing maiden. Only tenth of 11 to Lion's Dream in minor event over C&D (17/2) 12 days ago. Others appeal more. 44-race maiden; effective over C&D but needs to rebound from a poor run 12 days ago.
3	10 3rd (10) (18/1 +45%) Savalas		18 18/1(+45%)																															(10) Savalas 18/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in November. Seventh of 9 in minor event at this C&D (11/1) 24 days ago, left poorly placed. Cheekpieces back on and not discounted. C&D win last November; patchy since but may find this being run to suit his hold-up style.
4	2 4th (2) (16/1 -100%) Balmy Breese		16 16/1(-100%)																															(2) Balmy Breese 16/1, Remains a maiden after 25 Flat runs. 12/1, creditable ¾-length third of 11 to Lion's Dream in minor event over C&D 12 days ago, not ideally placed. Possibilities. Longstanding maiden but his best runs for this yard have come over C&D; fast pace a plus.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/2 0%) Lion's Dream		5.5 11/2(0%)																															(6) Lion's Dream 11/2, Ended a long losing run in 11-runner minor event over C&D 12 days ago. Very much one to consider. Ended losing run of 22 when asserting late in a similar race here 12 days ago; respected.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/11 +24%) Mashaan		0.909091 10/11(+24%)																															(1) Mashaan 10/11, Fair gelding. Course winner who improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 3 days ago. Sets the benchmark here. Course winner; easy 7f success at Lingfield on Monday; 0-15 at 6f but still a key player.
7th	8 7th (8) (100/1 -150%) Posh Maisie		100 100/1(-150%)																															(8) Posh Maisie 100/1, Seventh of 10 in minor event at this course (5.1f, 150/1) 10 days ago. Chance on old form. Limited encouragement for current stable and she looks vulnerable once more.
8th	11 8th (11) (22/1 +33%) We're Reunited		22 22/1(+33%)																															(11) We're Reunited 22/1, Course winner. Respectable sixth of 10 in minor event at this course (5.1f, 22/1) 10 days ago. It's 20 runs since his last win in 2023 however. Collared late over C&D last November; had an excuse latest; other pace on show here.
9th	9 9th (9) (17/2 +58%) Red Walls		8.5 17/2(+58%)																															(9) Red Walls 17/2, Five-time course winner but he came in just eighth of 9 in handicap (16/1) over C&D 3 days ago, doing too much too soon. Still needs to take a step forward. C&D win in January; in and out since and likely to have other pace to deal with today.
10th	5 10th (5) (33/1 +0%) Himawari		33 33/1(+0%)																															(5) Himawari 33/1, Modest filly. Seventh of 11 in handicap (28/1) at this course (5.1f) 13 days ago. Hood back on with more required. Inconsistent maiden; this is her level but others look more appealing for the win.

MASHAAN seems best when racing on the front end and is handily drawn to launch a bold attempt at following up Monday's win over 7f in a handicap at Lingfield. Dropping back down a furlong isn't a major worry for the Alice Haynes-trained seven-year-old, although the likes of Lion's Dream and Nordic Glory are likely types to capitalise if the shorter trip does catch him out.

Alice Haynes' MASHAAN holds a clear edge at these weights so is taken to follow up his recent Lingfield handicap victory at the chief expense of C&D scorer Lion's Dream. Fellow C&D scorers Nordic Glory and Global Effort also need factoring into this competitive classified event.

Mashaan isn't opposed lightly but Lion's Dream and the veteran SAVALAS are plausible alternatives.

1	1 1st (1) (9/4 -29%) The Doyen Chief		2.25 9/4(-29%)																															(1) The Doyen Chief 9/4, Off the mark at fourth time of asking over fences when taking 6-runner handicap at Kempton (24f, good to soft) 12 days ago. 5 lb rise fair and another bold bid looks assured. Only his fourth run over fences when doing it comfortably at Kempton; raised 5lb.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/1 +40%) Sail Away		6 6/1(+40%)																															(2) Sail Away 6/1, Dual winner on good ground in 2022/23 and shaped well on several occasions in defeat last term. Offered more than previously in this campaign when 4 lengths third of 6 to The Doyen Chief in handicap chase at Kempton (24f, good to soft) latest and has dropped down to a handy mark. Approaching his time of year and ran best race for a while when third at Kempton latest.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +0%) Snipe		3 3/1(+0%)																															(4) Snipe 3/1, Won handicaps around this sort of trip at Southwell and Aintree last season and has run creditably in defeat in all 4 starts this term, latest when eighth of 11 in handicap chase at Ascot (23.8f, good) 40 days ago. Dropped 1 lb since and is the choice of Harry Skelton. Cheekpieces on first time. Struggled at Ascot but in a strong race and previous efforts bring him right into this.
4	3 4th (3) (10/1 -122%) Ballycamus		10 10/1(-122%)																															(3) Ballycamus 10/1, Course winner last season who has been successful in 2 of his 5 starts this term, latest a 6-runner handicap chase at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Finds himself on a career-high mark now but warrants respect nonetheless. Has more on his plate than when winning at Ludlow but overall profile is appealing.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/2 +63%) Stans The Man		4.5 9/2(+63%)																															(6) Stans The Man 9/2, Done well since switched back to fences this season, winning good-ground handicaps at Exeter (24.3f) and Doncaster (26f) in November. Needs to bounce back from a poor effort at Uttoxeter earlier this month but ought to have ground conditions to suit. Dropped his guard the last twice and he's accustomed to lower-grade races than this.
6th	5 6th (5) (11/2 +31%) Peejaybee		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(5) Peejaybee 11/2, Successful 3 times over hurdles and notched second win in this sphere when landing a Perth handicap (20.1f) in September. Largely performed well in defeat since (clearly wasn't himself at Market Rasen latest) and can't be ruled out. Never travelled last time but he has a big run in him if back on song.

THE DOYEN CHIEF gained a deserved first chase success at Kempton earlier this month and, under ideal conditions, Alan King's eight-year-old is expected to defy a 5lb rise in the handicap. Snipe has contested a couple of warm premier handicaps recently and he merits respect eased in grade, with cheekpieces applied for the first time. Ballycamus has won two of his last three starts and should not be overlooked.

The addition of headgear may well benefit SNIPE, who has been running well in better company this term and remains fairly treated. He gets the nod. Recent Kempton winner The Doyen Chief looks the obvious danger.

A spring horse, C&D winner SAIL AWAY is not without hope of reversing Kempton placings with The Doyen Chief.

1	4 1st (4) (15/8 -181%) Coastal Rock		1.875 15/8(-181%)																															(4) Coastal Rock 15/8, Opened account at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in November and got back to winning ways in 4-runner handicap hurdle at Bangor (23.2f, heavy) last month, the emphasis on stamina playing to his strengths, despite some sloppy jumping. Lightly-raced sort should appreciate slightly longer trip and merits respect. 2-4 in handicaps; leading claims if handling the forecast better ground.
2	5 2nd (5) (15/2 +53%) Rockadenn		7.5 15/2(+53%)																															(5) Rockadenn 15/2, Useful hurdler/chaser at his best for previous yards but has yet to shine for current connections, going backwards from his reappearance when well-held at Fontwell (21.8f, heavy) 32 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to spark a revival. Well handicapped on old form but soundly beaten on both starts this year, after absence.
3	2 3rd (2) (7/2 +36%) Feivel		3.5 7/2(+36%)																															(2) Feivel 7/2, Dual hurdles winner last season and finished second in the Southern National on reappearance in November. Hinted at a return to that sort of form back over hurdles in first-time visor (retained) latest but paid the price for overly aggressive tactics. Interesting back off last winning hurdles mark. On a handy mark on form as recent as November but he's been disappointing since.
4	3 4th (3) (11/1 +8%) Enjoy D'allen		11 11/1(+8%)																															(3) Enjoy D'allen 11/1, Veteran on a losing run that stretches back to 2021, never travelled well on final start for Ciaran Murphy when seventh of 15 in a chase at Punchestown (24.9f) 52 days ago. Looks to have plenty on his plate back over smaller obstacles on stable debut. Very useful chaser in his prime; not the force of old; may be best watched on stable debut.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/4 +44%) Tigerbythetail		2.25 9/4(+44%)																															(1) Tigerbythetail 9/4, Didn't need to improve to get off the mark in 7-runner maiden hurdle at Catterick (25.3f, good to soft) last month and far from disgraced when ridden by an amateur to finish third of 6 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Claims with regular jockey back aboard. Fair third at Huntingdon latest; not obviously well treated but could be involved.

COASTAL ROCK has won two of his four starts since joining Olly Murphy and has a good chance of enhancing his strike-rate. He had something in hand when bouncing back to form at Bangor, where he readily banished a disappointing effort at Taunton to the memory. A 5lb higher rating looks workable for the follow-up attempt. Feivel is better treated in this sphere than he is over fences and is feared most. Top-weight Tigerbythetail is the pick of the remainder.

A contest lacking in depth and numbers, and it may pay to side with FEIVEL who has slipped back down to his latest winning hurdles mark having not been seen to best effect under an overly aggressive ride last time. Dual hurdles winner Coastal Rock is the least exposed of the field and could well improve again, while Tigerbythetail has largely run with credit this season and should be in the mix again.

The lightly raced COASTAL ROCK has won two of his last three starts and can score once more. Tigerbythetail is the likely danger.

1	10 1st (10) (5/4 +9%) Rachel's Secret		1.25 5/4(+9%)																															(10) Rachel's Secret 5/4, Fair hurdler. First run since leaving Henry De Bromhead when respectable third of 8 in maiden hurdle (11/2) at Limerick (24f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Down in trip. Good chance of a first win. Third to stablemate Custom Taylor at Limerick 2 weeks ago; handles soft; sets the standard.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/1 +80%) Former Flame		5 5/1(+80%)																															(5) Former Flame 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Seventh of 15 in maiden hurdle at Leopardstown (20f, good to soft, 66/1) on hurdles bow 24 days ago. Solid efforts in first three bumpers but has regressed since returning from a short break.

Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) My Design. Dam sister to several winners; one of 3 in the race for Queally so the market will guide.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/2 -27%) Ashdale Flyer		3.5 7/2(-27%)																															(2) Ashdale Flyer 7/2, Fair maiden hurdler. Respectable fifth of 14 in maiden hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft, 15/2). Off 6 months. Down in trip. Likely to be on the premises. A repeat of January 2024 run will see her go close but has been off the track since August.

Makes hurdles debut. Eyecatching Cork run; tailed off at Gowran; needs to bounce back on hurdles bow.
7th	15 7th (15) (25/1 0%) Sarah's Express		25 25/1(0%)																															(15) Sarah's Express 25/1, Mahler filly. Dam (h90) bumper winner (stayed 23f over hurdles). Dam out of half-sister to 2m3f-3m hurdle/chase winner Some Invitation; others more likely.

Half-sister to the talented Thunder Rock but she has shown little in four outings to date.

Maiden pointer who is a likely outsider on Rules debut. Half-sister to 2m4f hurdle winner Find A Fortune; dam 2m hurdle/chase winner; best watched.
10th	7 10th (7) (125/1 -279%) Liscahane United		125 125/1(-279%)																															(7) Liscahane United 125/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 50/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, eighth of 9 in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (17.8f, good) on hurdles bow. Off 7 months. Weak bumper form; tailed off at Downpatrick on hurdling debut; lacks a recent run.
11th	1 11th (1) (80/1 -21%) Mayo For Sam		80 80/1(-21%)																															(1) Mayo For Sam 80/1, Fair Flat winner. Once-raced maiden over hurdles. Twelfth of 20 in novice hurdle at Naas (16.2f, good to soft, 150/1) on NH debut 101 days ago. Flat recruit must concede weight to the field; soft ground against her; tough ask.
12th	11 12th (11) (6/1 -33%) Shannon Bank		6 6/1(-33%)																															(11) Shannon Bank 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable third of 12 in bumper (13/2) at Tipperary (20f, good to soft). Off 11 months. Makes hurdles debut. Should be competitive if taking to her new discipline. Creditable efforts all five bumper starts; could get involved but stable 0-31 this season.

Third foal; dam point winner, sister to winners Archie Meade and Somethingprecious; hooded.

Below form seventh of 14 in maiden hurdle (22/1) at this course (16.4f, soft) 114 days ago. Good fifth at Tipperary in November but failed to build on that promise when midfield here.

RACHEL'S SECRET ran much better last time after a disappointing effort on her return from a long absence at the start of the year. The six-year-old was well beaten in the end when third behind stablemate Custom Taylor at Limerick a fortnight ago, but travelled well until the turn and this drop back in trip should suit. She has the benefit of a recent run, which may prove the difference. Ashdale Flyer had some solid runs last season and, with a mark of 100, she's entitled to be thereabouts. Shannon Bank was placed twice in bumpers and she's another to consider on her jumping bow.

RACHEL'S SECRET made a sound enough start for new trainer Declan Queally when third at Limerick a fortnight ago and might prove the answer to what looks an ordinary maiden. Jessie Harrington's Ashdale Flyer will be a threat if fully primed after 6 months off, while Shannon Bank has achieved enough in bumpers to think she could make her presence felt in a race like this

Declan Queally runs three in this contest but RACHEL'S SECRET is by far the standout and she should take some beating

1	3 1st (3) (4/7 +70%) I Maximus		0.571429 4/7(+70%)																															(3) I Maximus 4/7, 11/8, looked the pick on form but disappointed when seventh of 13 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good to soft) 6 months ago, possibly unsuited by softer ground. In the mix if ready to roll (has been gelded in the interim). Fair ability first two starts, notably second in 6f AW novice, before struggling on soft.
1	1 1st (1) (6/1 -50%) Blue Rc		6 6/1(-50%)																															(1) Blue Rc 6/1, Blue Point colt. Half-brother to 5f/6f winner Invincible Speed. Dam unraced. Makes plenty of appeal on paper for an in-form yard. Wears hood. Half-brother to a useful AW sprint winner for the same connections; hooded for debut.

Could be an interesting handicapper after this outing. Caught the eye when fifth in 7f Wolverhampton fillies' novice in October on second start.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 -140%) Dream Out Loud		8 8/1(-140%)																															(2) Dream Out Loud 8/1, Improved on debut form to finish second once again in 6-runner maiden (5/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 13 days ago. Remains with potential and shouldn't be long in going one better. Modest form in finishing runner-up in two 6f AW events elsewhere; more needed.
5th	6 5th (6) (20/1 -43%) Special Acclaim		20 20/1(-43%)																															(6) Special Acclaim 20/1, 32,000 gns yearling, Acclamation gelding.

6th	4 6th (4) (5/1 +17%) Juba		5 5/1(+17%)																															(4) Juba 5/1, 40/1, showed quite a bit more than on debut 3 months earlier when sixth of 9 in maiden at Newbury (6f, soft) when last seen in September. Needs to build on that on all-weather debut/return. Looked to show ability on soft turf last year but form isn't robust; off since September.
7th	5 7th (5) (125/1 -25%) Sir Kenny		125 125/1(-25%)																															(5) Sir Kenny 125/1, 100/1, made an unpromising start to career when tailed-off last of 12 in novice at Bath (8f, soft) on debut 6 months ago. Down in trip and looks one for low-grade handicaps down the line (has had a wind op). 1,000gns yearling; 100-1 when tailed off in 1m heavy-ground Bath novice in October.
8th	8 8th (8) (50/1 -178%) Desert Beauty		50 50/1(-178%)																															(8) Desert Beauty 50/1, Oasis Dream filly. Dam unraced. Check betting. Yard also saddles Sir Kenny. By a good sire but there's less appeal on the dam's side of her pedigree.

I MAXIMUS contested a few useful novice/maiden events last season and this looks a good opportunity for him. The son of Zoustar is related to three winners who were all successful on the all-weather, and an official rating of 81 sets a decent standard. Dream Out Loud has filled the runner-up spot on both of his racecourse appearances and is unlikely to be far away, while Cooramook appeals most of the remainder.

A tricky opener to solve but the suggestion is DREAM OUT LOUD, who improved on his debut form to finish second once again at Wolverhampton earlier this month and Andrew Balding's 3-y-o can make it third time lucky. Heading up the dangers is Blue Rc, who ticks plenty of boxes on paper and represents a yard amongst the winners. I Maximus and Juba can fight out minor honours.

There are three newcomers to look at, but COORAMOOK has shown ability and should still have more to give.

2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 -45%) Pessoa		2 2/1(-45%)																															(1) Pessoa 2/1, Five-time course winner, the latest over 7f 9 days ago. Should go well under a 5 lb penalty. Five-time course winner, most recently last week; respected back up in trip under penalty.

Six of ten wins have been at this track and she's on a workable mark; in the mix.

5th	3 5th (3) (11/1 -83%) Absolutely Not		11 11/1(-83%)																															(3) Absolutely Not 11/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 40/1, seventh of 9 in maiden at Lingfield (1m) 22 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Much less exposed than the rest of these and interesting to see what the betting makes of her. In good hands and still early days but she needs a transformation on handicap debut.
6th	8 6th (8) (66/1 -230%) Blue Jay Way		66 66/1(-230%)																															(8) Blue Jay Way 66/1, Poor maiden. Good third at Catterick (6f) in October but well beaten at Redcar the following month. Significantly back up in trip on return. Cheekpieces also back on. 16-race maiden who still has stamina to prove at this trip; best watched on return.
7th	9 7th (9) (14/1 +58%) Haaf A Diamond		14 14/1(+58%)																															(9) Haaf A Diamond 14/1, Out of sorts when last seen in September. A watching brief is advised back from 6 months off. Out of sorts last year and needs a major revival after six months off.
8th	2 8th (2) (11/2 +27%) Voltaic		5.5 11/2(+27%)																															(2) Voltaic 11/2, C&D winner. Three wins from 14 runs last year. Bit below form when sixth of 11 in handicap (8/1) at this course (7f) 9 days ago. Back up in trip. On workable mark but he's not easy to predict and was quiet here last week.
9th	6 9th (6) (80/1 -100%) Possible Ambition		80 80/1(-100%)																															(6) Possible Ambition 80/1, Last of 12 in handicap (150/1) at Southwell (1m) 16 days ago. Lightly raced in last 12 months and has struggled in last three runs; lots to prove.
10th	10 10th (10) (25/1 -56%) Scarfo		25 25/1(-56%)																															(10) Scarfo 25/1, Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Sixth of 9 in C&D classified event 10 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Held in sixth here in last two runs and he's now 1-16; others look stronger.

C&D winner PESSOA has landed races back-to-back before and can repeat the feat after running on to score convincingly over 7f here last week. A 5lb penalty make things tougher for the six-year-old, but his proven liking for this venue is enough of a countering factor in his bid to gain a sixth Wolverhampton success. Port Noir is also effective here and commands respect from a winning mark. Fellow track-and-trip scorer Annalee Lass is another must for the shortlist.

Last week's 7f course scorer PESSOA is just as effective over this trip and is taken to defy a penalty. Port Noir is on a mark she really ought to be up to going close from, while an unexposed profile offers Absolutely Not the scope for better in handicaps.

Preference is for PESSOA, who got back on the scorsesheet with a strong-finishing win over 7f here last week.

Fergal O'Brien often does well in bumpers and Hey Buddy looks to be his leading hope with stable jockey Jonathan Burke aboard. Queens Ginger and Liam Mera Kai are others that warrant a market check, but the vote goes to DUTCH CORNER. The son of Getaway, a 50,000-euro purchase and a half-brother to the classy Yorkhill, makes considerable appeal and given the magnitude of his stable, it would be surprising were he not to be on the premises.

Dan Skelton has sent out 24 bumper winners this season so Yorkhill's brother DUTCH CORNER gets the tentative vote in this newcomers bumper, with confidence increased should the betting vibes be strong. Hey Buddy, the mount of Jonathan Burke from the Fergal O'Brien pair, and Tom Weston's North Nestor are other likely types on paper before any market clues are known.

The market should be revealing but HEY BUDDY, Dutch Corner, Not At That Price and Pioneer Pete all look likely types.

1	7 1st (7) (5/4 +62%) Ivane		1.25 5/4(+62%)																															(7) Ivane 5/4, A fair ex-Irish 2m hurdles winner who made a promising start for his new yard when a clear second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good) 10 days ago. Merits serious consideration off the same mark. Went close on recent stable debut at Fontwell and runs before 5lb rise kicks in.
2	9 2nd (9) (9/1 +36%) Rock On Tommy		9 9/1(+36%)																															(9) Rock On Tommy 9/1, It's now 13 runs since his last win in 2023 and he came in a below-form fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) 25 days ago, going in snatches. Up in trip with more required. 10yo who is without a win since July 2023 but has run some fair races this season.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/4 +58%) Sailed Away		2.75 11/4(+58%)																															(5) Sailed Away 11/4, Only twice raced this term but he shaped well when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good) 23 days ago, fading late on. Well worth considering with that run under his belt. Returned from another break with fair fourth three weeks ago and could build on that run.
4	8 4th (8) (9/2 +44%) Larkfield Lusive		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(8) Larkfield Lusive 9/2, Remains a maiden after 17 runs but he posted a good third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and in the mix. 0-17 but third in this last year off a higher mark and he holds each-way claims.
5th	1 5th (1) (14/1 +13%) Shan't Wait		14 14/1(+13%)																															(1) Shan't Wait 14/1, Lightly-raced maiden but he failed to build on earlier promise when seventh of 8 on his handicap debut at Doncaster (20.8f, good) 25 days ago. Not written off. Well beaten on handicap debut but sent off just 3-1 and shouldn't be written off.
6th	4 6th (4) (80/1 +20%) Flighttothestars		80 80/1(+20%)																															(4) Flighttothestars 80/1, Still a maiden and she hung badly left before being pulled up in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good) 15 days ago. One to avoid. Has shown ability but pulled up this year in her first two handicaps.

Turned out again quickly after an easy success at Sedgefield last week, SCORSESE is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and he can follow up under a 7lb penalty. Not beaten far when an untidy jump at the last cost him at Fontwell, Ivane is entitled to be thereabouts again on his second run for new connections. Sailed Away has dropped to a mark just 2lb above his last victory and cannot be ruled out with confidence.

IVANE shaped well when a clear second at Fontwell last week on his first run for the excellent James Owen and is fancied to go one better off an unchanged mark. Recent Sedgefield scorer Scorsese is feared most under a 7 lb penalty with Sailed Away, Klapton Boy and Shan't Wait all worthy of consideration too.

Preference is for IVANE, who went close on last week's stable debut at Fontwell and is due to run off 5lb higher in future handicaps.

Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, good, 12/1) 171 days ago, pulled up before 2 out. Hood back on. Bounce back needed after break.

VOLEZ VOUS sprang a shock last time and may be able to follow up in a weak race. The Yeats mare was 66/1 when scoring over 2m here, in a race that looked to have more strength in depth. There may be another one in her, despite a 7lb rise. Beeverstown Place ran well on his penultimate outing here, when fourth to Mount Shenshan, and drops back in trip having failed to make an impression over 3m subsequently. Chemdawg didn't run too badly when mid-division at Fairyhouse and could get closer now in this company.

If the tongue tie continues to have a positive effect last month's course scorer VOLEZ VOUS might be able to defy a rise in the weights. Ladyeze Man was better than the result here last time and is second choice ahead of Beeverstown Place in a contest where it's hard to make a compelling case for many.

A very tentative vote goes to BEEVERSTOWN PLACE who shaped okay here off 3lb higher on his penultimate start.

1	1 1st (1) (3/1 +25%) Star Legend		3 3/1(+25%)																															(1) Star Legend 3/1, Hurdles winner but remains a maiden on the Flat. However, placed 3 times on the level this year, before left poorly placed when fifth of 6 in handicap (4/1) at Southwell (14.1f) 8 days ago. Could be thereabouts with blinkers reapplied. Long-standing maiden on Flat but short-head second in 2m Class 5 handicap here in February.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +33%) The Colorist		4 4/1(+33%)																															(4) The Colorist 4/1, Winner at Lingfield in September and good efforts on first 2 starts this year. Run best excused when seventh of 8 in handicap at Kempton (16f, 9/2) 29 days ago, poorly placed, so he's not ruled out with visor back on. Capable handicapper on AW around 1m4f; excuses when form latest.
3	2 3rd (2) (2/1 +27%) Blue Sky Boy		2 2/1(+27%)																															(2) Blue Sky Boy 2/1, Improved form on first 2 outings this year, runner-up at this C&D on second occasion. Met trouble entering final 1f when sixth of 7 in handicap (5/2) at Southwell (16.5f) 56 days ago, so he could fare better with cheekpieces added. Lightly raced maiden; runner-up in C&D Class 5 handicap two starts back; cheekpieces on.
4	5 4th (5) (8/1 +60%) Duchess		8 8/1(+60%)																															(5) Duchess 8/1, Sole victory came at Yarmouth last May but has run well last 2 starts, third of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f, 17/2) 28 days ago. Others still look stronger for win purposes, though, as she goes back up in trip. Placed in 1m4f Class 6 Newcastle handicaps on last two starts; this trip within reach.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/2 -56%) Payment Plan		3.5 7/2(-56%)																															(3) Payment Plan 7/2, Successful at Wolverhampton in January and first past the post at same course next time. Run of good form halted when last of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (16.2f, 6/4) a month ago, but no surprise to see him get back on track in first-time cheekpieces. First past the post in four 2m Class 6 handicaps on the AW elsewhere since November.

Payment Plan has been progressive during the winter and although disappointing last time out, it would come as no surprise were he to bounce back in first-time cheekpieces. However, a chance is taken on BLUE SKY BOY, who lost all chance when on the receiving end of interference at Southwell in January. He struck the woodwork over this C&D earlier that month, though, and Paul Attwater's unexposed stayer would go very close if able to replicate that level of performance. Star Legend is also noted.

PAYMENT PLAN made it 3 wins from 4 starts when scoring at Wolverhampton in January, so he is worth forgiving his latest run given the form he was in previously. He is taken to bounce back to winning ways with cheekpieces applied, though Star Legend and The Colorist both had excuses last time and could be in the mix.

Each of these have a chance, with none of them fully convincing, but maybe BLUE SKY BOY can come good. Star Legend is second pick.

1	6 1st (6) (16/1 -14%) King Of The Dance		16 16/1(-14%)																															(6) King Of The Dance 16/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 6/1, seventh of 11 in classified event over C&D 10 days ago, not ideally placed. Ran okay here this month, after a break, and remains on a career-low mark.
2	3 2nd (3) (6/1 -50%) Tactical Control		6 6/1(-50%)																															(3) Tactical Control 6/1, Creditable third of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (1m) 19 days ago. Blinkers on first time. Respected under Loughnane. Has modest strike-rate but kept on well for third off today's career-low mark this month.
3	9 3rd (9) (20/1 -82%) Stoic Syd		20 20/1(-82%)																															(9) Stoic Syd 20/1, 13/2, creditable fifth of 11 in classified event over C&D 10 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Latest run was a step back in the right direction; cheekpieces may aid further progress.
4	1 4th (1) (5/2 +25%) L'immortale		2.5 5/2(+25%)																															(1) L'immortale 5/2, Good start for this yard since coming from Ireland, second over C&D before winning 10-runner classified event at Lingfield on Monday. More needed under a 5 lb penalty here but no surprise were she to find it. Came good for current stable at second attempt; major player under a penalty here.
5th	5 5th (5) (12/1 +0%) Boujee Gold		12 12/1(+0%)																															(5) Boujee Gold 12/1, C&D winner in December. Two creditable in-frame efforts since and lost her chance with a slow start last time. Can be competitive off current mark but has been rather inconsistent in recent months.
6th	7 6th (7) (14/1 -40%) Making A Move		14 14/1(-40%)																															(7) Making A Move 14/1, Shaped well when close third over 1m at Newcastle in January but down the field in 2 subsequent starts there, albeit he had a hopeless task from his position after a slow start last time. Close third in Newcastle classified in January but two very disappointing runs followed.
7th	8 7th (8) (28/1 -40%) Van Zant		28 28/1(-40%)																															(8) Van Zant 28/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in January but has struggled since. 7f winner in January but recent effort have been disappointing; others preferred.
8th	4 8th (4) (10/3 -21%) Ravenglass		3.333333 10/3(-21%)																															(4) Ravenglass 10/3, C&D winner. Notched another course win over 7f this month and went close back here (7f again) last week. Races off 2 lb lower this time and another bold bid is on the cards. Effectively 2lb lower than when close second in recent 7f handicap; this trip also suits.
9th	10 9th (10) (50/1 -52%) Liege		50 50/1(-52%)																															(10) Liege 50/1, Eighth of 9 in classified event at Lingfield (7f) 62 days ago. Up in trip. 14-race maiden who was soundly beaten in 7f Lingfield classified on latest outing.

L'IMMORTALE has been a revelation since joining the Jack Jones stable and now that he has broken the maiden with a determined success over further at Lingfield on Monday, the five-year-old can follow up under a 5lb penalty. Narrowly denied in his attempt to land a 7f double here, Ravenglass is capable of being in the shake-up, as is Tactical Control, who may improve for going back up in distance slightly.

RAVENGLASS can land a second course win of the month under Finley Marsh. Monday's Lingfield scorer L'immortale could have more to offer for new trainer Jack Jones and is feared most ahead of Tactical Control, the mount of Billy Loughnane.

After quickening well to score at Lingfield on Monday, L'IMMORTALE can complete a quick double.

1	7 1st (7) (9/4 +78%) Faded Fantasy		2.25 9/4(+78%)																															(7) Faded Fantasy 9/4, C&D winner who comes here below par, only eighth of 10 in handicap at Taunton (23.9f) 17 days ago. Tongue strap back on with work to do. Went close over fences in November but has struggled to get competitive subsequently.
2	5 2nd (5) (5/2 +17%) Our Pink Lady		2.5 5/2(+17%)																															(5) Our Pink Lady 5/2, C&D winner who got right back on track when a clear second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (19.6f, good) 15 days ago. Can go well again nudged up 1 lb. Two C&D wins last March and went close at Huntingdon a fortnight ago; player.
3	8 3rd (8) (11/1 +8%) Jumble Jury		11 11/1(+8%)																															(8) Jumble Jury 11/1, A point winner but yet to offer much in three runs in this sphere. Returns from a break with lots more needed now handicapping. Point winner; has a lowly opening mark but has shown very little over hurdles thus far.
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 +30%) Ted's Friend		7 7/1(+30%)																															(2) Ted's Friend 7/1, Dual hurdles winner but he arrives well below par, tenth of 13 in 2m2f Stratford handicap last time. Hard to warm to. Well treated on the pick of this season's form but well beaten on his last three starts.
5th	10 5th (10) (80/1 -21%) Noble Recall		80 80/1(-21%)																															(10) Noble Recall 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden who has yet to offer much over hurdles, ninth of 12 in novice at Doncaster (19.4f, good) 26 days ago. 18 lb "wrong" in the weights for his first go in handicaps. Tailed off/pulled up on all five starts; hard to fancy on handicap debut.
6th	4 6th (4) (40/1 -82%) Barleythorpe		40 40/1(-82%)																															(4) Barleythorpe 40/1, Well held both starts in bumpers last spring for Pam Sly and little impact in 3 hurdle runs for his current yard. Needs this switch to handicaps to spark progress. Improvement needed but the hood and longer trip are possible positives on handicap debut.
7th	3 7th (3) (10/3 +76%) Pottersjetamay		3.333333 10/3(+76%)																															(3) Pottersjetamay 10/3, Remains a maiden but he wasn't disgraced when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (20.8f, good) 25 days ago. Not dismissed off an easing mark. 0-10 but fair fifth at Doncaster last time and drops back down in grade today.

Now that the penny has dropped for TRAMUNTANA after a comfortable success on his handicap debut at Huntingdon last month, Olly Murphy's charge should have plenty more to come and he can double up. Narrowly denied over the same track and trip recently, Our Pink Lady must enter calculations, while Ted's Friend continues to drop in the handicap for a stable in excellent form at present.

Lots of these arrive with a question mark against them and this looks a very good opportunity for TRAMUNTANA to build on his Huntingdon victory and go 2-2 since sent handicapping. C&D winner Our Pink Lady rates much the biggest threat, with Pottersjetamay appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

Bumper winner TRAMUNTANA (nap) scored on last month's handicap debut at Huntingdon and can defy a 5lb rise and follow up.

1	3 1st (3) (8/1 -100%) Tingarran Express		8 8/1(-100%)																															(3) Tingarran Express 8/1, Sole success from 29 NH runs came at this course (16.3f) last spring. Model of consistency subsequently and likely she'll strip fitter following first start for 6 months when seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle back at this course (2m, heavy) 28 days ago. Worthy of a second look. Course winner, held form well since, improve for comeback run last month, big chance.
2	1 2nd (1) (12/1 +14%) Sharetheknowledge		12 12/1(+14%)																															(1) Sharetheknowledge 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden who was in the process of running poorly when slipping up in handicap hurdle at Wexford (20.5f) back in August. Needs to take a step forward on return to action. Promise in a maiden and on h'cap bow, off since slipping up at Wexford, not discounted.
3	7 3rd (7) (16/1 +20%) Old Kenmare		16 16/1(+20%)																															(7) Old Kenmare 16/1, Big prices when shaping with only minor promise in maiden hurdles but could be a different proposition now sent handicapping. One to note for any market support on handicap hurdle debut. Midfield in a trio of maiden hurdles, best watched on h'cap debut unless market speaks.
4	8 4th (8) (4/1 +75%) Weather Alert		4 4/1(+75%)																															(8) Weather Alert 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, shaped much better than bare result when twelfth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (24f, good to soft) 24 days ago, weakening before last. Drop in trip rates a plus and he remains capable of better. Dual-purpose maiden, tame effort on h'cap hurdle debut, drops in trip, capable of better.
5th	4 5th (4) (12/1 -33%) Robindevidastar		12 12/1(-33%)																															(4) Robindevidastar 12/1, Made a winning reappearance at Punchestown in November. Good second next time but found run of good form coming to a halt when eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.1f, soft, 18/1) 42 days ago. However, bounce back rates distinctly possible. Three time hurdles winner, ran well here in January, 2m unsuitable latest, on a tough mark.
6th	5 6th (5) (12/1 +14%) Southgate Avenue		12 12/1(+14%)																															(5) Southgate Avenue 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Below form ninth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Gowran (16.1f, heavy, 33/1) 19 days ago, looking unsuited by drop in trip. Remains less exposed than most and not one to write off. No show in maidens, minor promise latest, 2lb lower and upped in trip, may outrun odds.
7th	10 7th (10) (33/1 -83%) Close Enough		33 33/1(-83%)																															(10) Close Enough 33/1, Landed a 22f handicap hurdle at Limerick in summer of 2023 but very lightly raced since, absent since taking a heavy fall in handicap hurdle at Tramore (20.4f, good, 25/1) last August. Sparingly raced since Limerick win in July 2023, off since August fall at Tramore, watch.
8th	11 8th (11) (33/1 -32%) Walk Of The Roses		33 33/1(-32%)																															(11) Walk Of The Roses 33/1, 50/1 and blinkered for 1st time, eleventh of 13 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (19.8f, soft) 50 days ago. Back down in trip but difficult to fancy strongly. Bumper winner for former yard, no impact in four runs for this stable, others appeal more.
9	9 |B| (9) (4/1 -14%) Heidi's Frontiere		4 4/1(-14%)																															(9) Heidi's Frontiere 4/1, Good third of 16 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at this course (16f, heavy) 28 days ago, faring best of those held up. Well worth a second look back up in trip. 0-7 over hurdles, good efforts two of last three starts, this trip could suit well, chance.
12	12 |F| (12) (8/1 +6%) Tir Og		8 8/1(+6%)																															(12) Tir Og 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 20/1, matched previous best when creditable third of 13 in handicap hurdle at this course (19f, soft) 42 days ago. Remains early days so that may not prove her limit. Promise last two starts including on h'cap debut here, down 1lb, claims.
2	2 |U| (2) (7/2 +13%) Bossofthebus		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(2) Bossofthebus 7/2, Course winner. 1 win from 3 runs this season. 7/4, below form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (19f, soft) 42 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Not out of things. Won here over 2m4f in January, couldn't repeat over 2m3f off 7lb higher, can't discount.
13	13 |PU| (13) (28/1 -27%) Realtin Lonrach		28 28/1(-27%)																															(13) Realtin Lonrach 28/1, Maiden who has failed to complete on 3 of her last 4 starts, albeit unseating through no fault of her own having been hampered sixth in handicap hurdle at Limerick (22.7f) 2 weeks ago. Still, others make more appeal. 0-12 over hurdles, failed to complete three of last four, unseated latest, more needed.
6	6 |PU| (6) (50/1 -150%) Western Opera		50 50/1(-150%)																															(6) Western Opera 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 200/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, fourth of 9 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, heavy) 26 days ago. Could do better still now handicapping and another to note for positive market vibes. Well beaten at big odds in maidens, not obviously well treated for h'cap bow, check market.

This looks like the more competitive of the two divisions and TINGARRAN EXPRESS may prove the pick. She ran well on her return to action here last month, in testing conditions, just fading a touch late on when seventh behind Volez Vous. With that run under her belt, and better ground now, she is expected to go close. She has a bit to find with Heidi's Frontiere, who was third here four weeks ago. That was an improvement on her previous form and a similar showing gives her a big chance. Western Opera has hinted at ability in maidens and may be one to watch on her handicap debut.

HEIDI'S FRONTIERE built on the promise of her reappearance run at the second attempt when third over 2m here 4 weeks ago, faring best of those held up. She leaves the impression there's a bigger effort in her locker, including at this longer trip, and she earns the vote to come out on top. Tingarran Express, Weather Alert, who shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests latest, and Robindevidastar head up the dangers.

A chance is taken on the filly Tir Og who could build on the promise she showed in her first handicap over 2m3f here last month.

1	6 1st (6) (10/3 +17%) Dark Sorceress		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(6) Dark Sorceress 10/3, Remains a maiden but produced best performance to date when second of 13 in nursery (16/1) over C&D when last seen in October. Merits consideration back at this venue after 5 months off. Runner-up in similar race over C&D when last seen in October; bit more needed.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 +8%) One For Harvey		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(1) One For Harvey 11/2, Made the frame twice in maidens at this C&D last year. After 11 weeks off, well held on handicap debut when seventh of 8 at Lingfield (6f, 15/2) 48 days ago, but she's an interesting contender back here with cheekpieces added. Lightly raced maiden; has run well here but needs to do way more than on reappearance.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/2 +54%) Off The Bench		5.5 11/2(+54%)																															(2) Off The Bench 11/2, In first-time tongue strap (now discarded), wasn't in the same form as previous outing when last of 9 in nursery (12/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) when last seen in September. First run for yard after leaving Edward Smyth-Osbourne. Moderate maiden who was tailed off in 7f Wolverhampton race when last seen six months ago.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 -64%) Watkins		9 9/1(-64%)																															(4) Watkins 9/1, Has failed to improve for the switch to handicaps this year, in first-time visor when sixth of 8 at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 11/1) 37 days ago. Goes without headgear/tongue tie on first run since leaving George Boughey. Unplaced in six 6f-1m AW/turf starts for George Boughey, but may prove capable of better.
5th	3 5th (3) (2/1 +40%) Olympic Melody		2 2/1(+40%)																															(3) Olympic Melody 2/1, Some encouragement on debut but failed to repeat that effort in 2 subsequent outings, seventh of 11 in novice at Newmarket (6f, good to soft, 100/1) in November. Watch for market clues as she goes handicapping having left Rae Guest. Didn't progress in three 6f AW/turf starts for Rae Guest last year, but should do better.
6th	7 6th (7) (40/1 -100%) Tiana Rose		40 40/1(-100%)																															(7) Tiana Rose 40/1, Placed on handicap debut at Brighton last year, but after 5 months off she ran poorly when last of 10 at Southwell (6.1f, 33/1) 27 days ago. Others preferred. Six-race maiden; no obvious promise at Southwell on reappearance.
7th	8 7th (8) (6/1 +40%) Clipsham Noble		6 6/1(+40%)																															(8) Clipsham Noble 6/1, Placed here (7f) last summer but hasn't gone on from that effort since, eighth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 9/1) 29 days ago. Visor now reached for as he drops back down in trip. 0-8; hasn't built on last August's 5l third in 7f Class 6 nursery here; now visored.

A chance can be taken on OLYMPIC MELODY, who was last seen finishing down the field in a novice event at Newmarket in November. The daughter of Oasis Dream has since left Rae Guest to join the Kevin Philippart De Foy stable, and it would not come as any great surprise were she to find improvement now sent handicapping. A tendency to race freely continues to affect Watkins' chance, but he's a likely contender if settling. Top Star, who sports a first-time hood for his reappearance, is one more to consider.

Having made the frame twice here last year, ONE FOR HARVEY ran below form sent handicapping at Lingfield last month, but back at this venue she could be ready to get off the mark with cheekpieces added. She is preferred to Top Star, who should be suited by the return to 6f on his first start for Dean Ivory, with Dark Sorceress also considered.

A weak-looking race but OLYMPIC MELODY, Watkins and Top Star, who each happen to be debuting for new trainers, may improve.

1	5 1st (5) (11/10 +32%) Circus Of Rome		1.1 11/10(+32%)																															(5) Circus Of Rome 11/10, Much improved from debut when close second at Lingfield (8f) in December. Wasn't in same form over shorter trip at Chelmsford City (7f) last time but looks the one to beat here. Runner-up in two of his three races and he's the standard-setter in this field.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 -33%) Perfect Life		6 6/1(-33%)																															(4) Perfect Life 6/1, Built on promising debut effort when taking 7-runner maiden at this course (8.6f, 10/3) in December. May have more to offer yet, particularly over this longer trip. Comfortably repelled a well-touted Gosden newcomer here in December; looks useful.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/8 +54%) Hot Cash		1.375 11/8(+54%)																															(3) Hot Cash 11/8, Fair colt. Won at Epsom on debut. 10/1, 9½ lengths fourth of 5 to Cowardofthecounty in Prix Francois Boutin at Deauville (7f, good to firm). Off 7 months. Significantly up in trip. Warrants respect. Won a weak race at Epsom before coming up well short in a French Group 3.
4	8 4th (8) (28/1 -155%) Maraaheb		28 28/1(-155%)																															(8) Maraaheb 28/1, €60,000 foal, €42,000 yearling, Sottsass colt. Half-brother to numerous winners, including 1m-10.5f winner Opposite and winner up to 1½m Baahama, both smart in France. Wears hood. Makes appeal on paper. 42,000euros yearling; hooded for debut but in top hands and needs checking in the betting.
5th	7 5th (7) (66/1 -200%) Lightning Tiger		66 66/1(-200%)																															(7) Lightning Tiger 66/1, Waldgeist gelding. Dam 1m/9f winner. Market check advised on debut. First foal; dam 1m-1m1f winner (including AW; RPR 96); likely best watched on debut.
6th	9 6th (9) (22/1 -83%) Soy Loco		22 22/1(-83%)																															(9) Soy Loco 22/1, Upped his game when third at Kempton (8f) last month and ran to similar level when second of 8 in maiden at Chelmsford City (10f, 10/1) 19 days ago. Ought to go well again. Perhaps flattered at Chelmsford last time but clearly up to winning races.
7th	11 7th (11) (28/1 -250%) Camtank		28 28/1(-250%)																															(11) Camtank 28/1, 30,000 gns yearling, Camelot filly. Half-sister to several winners, including smart winner up to 1m Awesometank and useful 1m winner Frantanck. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner who stayed 1m. Newcomers from yard often fancied. 30,000gns yearling; the only female in the field but she's in a leading stable.
8th	1 8th (1) (250/1 -213%) Mybad		250 250/1(-213%)																															(1) Mybad 250/1, Twice-raced maiden. 25/1, sixth of 7 in maiden at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago. Up against it. Has performed to a modest level in his first two races at about 1m and looks outclassed.
9th	2 9th (2) (200/1 -150%) Guinness Lad		200 200/1(-150%)																															(2) Guinness Lad 200/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. 300/1, sixth of 9 in novice at this course (9.5f) 15 days ago, not knocked about. Likely to improve. Has looked limited in a bumper, over hurdles and in three races on the AW.
10th	6 10th (6) (125/1 -213%) Godstone		125 125/1(-213%)																															(6) Godstone 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 11 in maiden (50/1) at Kempton (12f) 22 days ago. Down in trip. Others more persuasive. Showed more second time out at Kempton but was still beaten 8l and that was over 1m4f.

PERFECT LIFE showed significant improvement from his first to his second start when scoring at this venue and Marco Botti's colt can go in again under a penalty, with Hollie Doyle back in the saddle. Runner-up on his last two starts, Circus Of Rome looks just the type to improve for going up in trip. Hot Cash is of interest on the drop in grade, having contested a Group 3 at Deauville last summer.

The step up in trip should suit CIRCUS OF ROME, who boasts much the best form on offer here. He can open his account. Perfect Life and Soy Loco look the likeliest dangers.

Perfect Life won well here in December but conceding a penalty to CIRCUS OF ROME could prove troublesome.

2	5 2nd (5) (1/1 +27%) Doctor Steinberg		1 1/1(+27%)																															(5) Doctor Steinberg 1/1, Doctor Dino gelding who produced a promising first effort when third behind stablemate/subsequent Supreme Novices' Hurdle winner Kopek des Bordes in 14-runner Fairyhouse bumper 12 months ago.

Brother to French hurdler Saaluste and half-brother to multiple winner on Flat in Germany up to 12.5f Sunny Star. Dam 7f-13f winner on Flat in France. Runner-up sole start in points (Oct 2024).

DOCTOR STEINBERG should prove hard to beat, despite returning from a year off the track. The Doctor Dino gelding ran a nice race when third to star stablemate Kopek Des Bordes when the pair made their debuts in the Tattersalls Sales Bumper last Easter. Cosmos D'ainay won a point-to-point in December and subsequently made 165,000 pounds at the sales. He's an interesting rival. Gavin Cromwell's newcomer Artsncrafts is another to note in the market. The Flat-bred Mastercraftsman gelding makes a belated debut at the age of six and is a half-brother to Impact Warrior, who was placed in the Grade 1 Del Mar Oaks.

DOCTOR STEINBERG produced a promising first effort when third behind now high-class stablemate Kopek des Bordes in a Fairyhouse bumper 12 months ago and, open to improvement, he's selected to make a winning return to action. Cosmos d'Ainay rates an interesting recruit from the pointing field and is feared. Sunny South West and Ace Brannigan complete the shortlist.

The form of DOCTOR STEINBERG's debut 3rd behind stablemate Kopek Des Bordes couldn't have worked out better and he gets the nod

1	4 1st (4) (7/2 +50%) Cheeky Stanley		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(4) Cheeky Stanley 7/2, In first-time hood (now discarded), failed to build on previous effort when last of 4 in maiden at Brighton (5.3f, good, 9/4) when last seen in September. Off 6 months ahead of his handicap debut. Unplaced in three turf sprint maidens last year, but may do better now handicapping.
2	2 2nd (2) (15/8 +53%) Bust A Moon		1.875 15/8(+53%)																															(2) Bust A Moon 15/8, With headgear left off, ran to similar level as previously when fourth of 11 on nursery debut at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 8/1) in November. Could go well as he makes first run since leaving Eve Johnson Houghton. 0-4; potential improver, back down in trip four months on for new trainer.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/2 +46%) Rock Master		3.5 7/2(+46%)																															(5) Rock Master 7/2, Made the frame on third start in novices, before racing closer to the pace than ideal when seventh of 12 in nursery (4/1) at Newcastle (6f) in November (gelded since). Enters calculations with cheekpieces on 1st time. 0-4 and didn't progress last year, but has a useful pedigree and could improve this term.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 0%) She's A Dark Horse		11 11/1(0%)																															(7) She's A Dark Horse 11/1, Showed a bit more than previously when 3¼ lengths fifth of 13 in nursery (22/1) at this C&D in October. Further improvement required on return from 5 months off. Unplaced in six starts last year, the last two coming in C&D Class 6 nursery events.
5th	8 5th (8) (40/1 -150%) My Boy Harry		40 40/1(-150%)																															(8) My Boy Harry 40/1, Finished down the field in 3 outings last year, last of 8 in novice at Yarmouth (5.2f, soft, 200/1) in October (has been gelded since). First run for yard after leaving Darryll Holland. Not dismissed on his handicap bow. Well beaten three maiden/novices for Darryll Holland last year including C&D.
6th	6 6th (6) (33/1 -230%) Rhodes Royce		33 33/1(-230%)																															(6) Rhodes Royce 33/1, Hasn't offered much in 3 starts to date, always behind when eighth of 9 in novice (125/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) a month ago. Handicaps may just see her in a better light, though. Unplaced in three 7f/6f AW maiden/novices elsewhere, but now handicapping at low level.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -220%) Double Mocha		16 16/1(-220%)																															(1) Double Mocha 16/1, Only modest form at best in a trio of races so far, fifth of 7 in maiden (20/1) at Kempton (6f) 36 days ago. However, he could yet do better as he goes handicapping (has been gelded). Unplaced in three AW maiden/novices elsewhere, but may do better handicapping at low level.
8th	3 8th (3) (5/1 -50%) Inconspicuous		5 5/1(-50%)																															(3) Inconspicuous 5/1, Making only third start for current yard, quickly back on track when 2 lengths fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 12/1) 37 days ago, despite having done too much too soon. Major player. Showed up well when fourth in similar race to this at Wolverhampton latest.

Bust A Moon finished fourth on his handicap bow at Wolverhampton in November and is an interesting contender back down in trip on his first start for David Evans. However, a chance can be taken on RHODES ROYCE, who has failed to fire in her three starts in maiden/novice company, but it would be no surprise if she proved a different proposition off a low opening rating. With Kieran Shoemark booked, she might be up to the task. Cheeky Stanley is another to note.

This could go the way of INCONSPICUOUS, who soon left behind a lesser effort when fourth at Wolverhampton last month, doing well to finish as close as he did having set a decent pace. He can build on that and double his tally, with Bust A Moon feared most as he drops back in trip starting off for David Evans, ahead of Rock Master.

A weak race in which BUST A MOON looks a potential improver for a new trainer on his return, preferred to Inconspicuous.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +53%) Cinque Verde		4 4/1(+53%)																															(1) Cinque Verde 4/1, C&D winner. Five wins from 11 runs last year. 16/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 27 days ago, doing too much too soon. Back down in trip. Others have achieved more. 1lb higher than for January's C&D win; latest run not the one to judge her on; chance.
2	6 2nd (6) (6/1 +25%) Bang On The Bell		6 6/1(+25%)																															(6) Bang On The Bell 6/1, 4-time C&D winner. 2¾ lengths fifth of 7 to El Bufalo in handicap (11/2) at Chelmsford City (5f) 33 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. More realistically treated again now and no surprise to see him make a bold bid.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/2 +55%) Reigning Profit		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(8) Reigning Profit 9/2, C&D winner who shaped encouragingly, back from 5 months off, when fifth of 8 in handicap at Newcastle (5f, 20/1) 23 days ago. 2 lb lower now and is an interesting contender. Saw no daylight on his return to action and a 2lb drop looks kind; C&D winner; chance.
4	5 4th (5) (13/2 +46%) Dashing Harry		6.5 13/2(+46%)																															(5) Dashing Harry 13/2, Unreliable type. Latest win at Lingfield in February. 18/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 8 days ago. Others preferred. On a winning mark and the return to 5f should suit; one for the shortlist.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 +11%) El Bufalo		4 4/1(+11%)																															(2) El Bufalo 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Chelmsford City in February. Fourth of 5 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 15/8) 14 days ago. Respected. Conditions fine and took well to blinkers at Chelmsford last month; less good latest.
6th	4 6th (4) (28/1 -133%) Invincible Speed		28 28/1(-133%)																															(4) Invincible Speed 28/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 28/1) 36 days ago. Given a chance by the assessor. C&D win off 3lb higher last July; not shone in two 6f runs for this yard; drop in trip a +.
7th	3 7th (3) (5/1 -82%) Ecclesiastical		5 5/1(-82%)																															(3) Ecclesiastical 5/1, C&D winner who got back on scoreboard when landing 7-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 22 days ago. 7 lb higher now but should go well again. Conditions to suit and won easily at Lingfield 3 weeks ago; up 7lb in a better race.
8th	7 8th (7) (9/1 -80%) Catch Cunningham		9 9/1(-80%)																															(7) Catch Cunningham 9/1, C&D winner who has acquitted himself well the last twice, latest when good second of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 16 days ago. Remains fairly treated and is one for shortlist. Comes here in form and he's respected despite the widest stall.

Impressive when justifying favouritism over this distance at Lingfield, ECCLESIASTICAL has won over C&D before and he sets the standard on recent form, despite a 7lb rise in the weights. A consistent sort without getting his head in front since victory over track and trip last September, Catch Cunningham is on the shortlist along with another C&D winner in the shape of El Bufalo.

It could be worth chancing REIGNING PROFIT, who is back down to his last winning mark and should be straighter for his Newcastle return earlier this month. Catch Cunningham and Ecclesiastical are feared most.

A trappy event in which all eight runners have something to recommend them. DASHING HARRY may be the answer back at 5f.

Five AW wins elsewhere; his level dipped at Wolverhampton latest but that was 6f.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 -80%) Merrimack		6 6/1(-80%)																															(7) Merrimack 6/1, 11/4, run best excused when last of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) just over 9 weeks ago, poorly drawn and things going wrong from an early stage. Folly to ignore. Twice runner-up in similar races here over the winter; can be excused below-par run latest.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +50%) Dark Side Prince		9 9/1(+50%)																															(8) Dark Side Prince 9/1, 5-time C&D winner (including this corresponding event from 2 lb higher last year). 50/1, looked rusty after 3 months off when seventh of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 31 days ago. Five C&D wins including this race last year; needs to rediscover some form.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 -25%) Angle Land		10 10/1(-25%)																															(5) Angle Land 10/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2024. 9/2, again ran below form when seventh of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 16 days ago. On 12-race losing run but met some trouble at Southwell latest and has won over C&D.
5th	1 5th (1) (22/1 -214%) Secret Handsheikh		22 22/1(-214%)																															(1) Secret Handsheikh 22/1, Latest win at Brighton in September. Well-beaten second of 7 in handicap at same course (5.3f, good to soft, 2/1) when last seen 6 months ago. One to consider on return. Ten-time winner elsewhere but unproven around this track and has been off since October.
6th	9 6th (9) (4/1 +71%) Alafdhal		4 4/1(+71%)																															(9) Alafdhal 4/1, 8/1, bounced back to form when second of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 10 days ago, conceding first run. Blinkers back on and Rossa Ryan on board a positive. Has won here four times; most recently runner-up in Wolverhampton Class 6.
8th	6 8th (6) (16/1 -129%) Birkenhead		16 16/1(-129%)																															(6) Birkenhead 16/1, Three wins from 15 runs last year. Wasn't disgraced when fifth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Southwell (5f) 16 days ago. Should step forward again. Encouragement at Southwell on second run after a break; handily weighted.
9th	3 9th (3) (15/2 +63%) Leodis Dream		7.5 15/2(+63%)																															(3) Leodis Dream 15/2, C&D winner in October. 33/1, didn't get home having a rare outing at 6f when sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell 16 days ago. Will benefit from this return to 5f. Has won over C&D; poor run at Newcastle two back but showed up well at Southwell latest.

General Assembly made every yard of the running when holding on by a neck at Wolverhampton and is just 2lb higher. A slight concern is the application of first-time cheekpieces after that success and, with that in mind, SECRET HANDSHEIKH gets the nod. John Gallagher's seven-year-old was last seen finishing second at Brighton in October and has three previous victories on the all-weather to his name. With an ideal draw in stall one, he could be the one to beat. Alafdhal is another to consider.

An open-looking sprint but the vote goes to GENERAL ASSEMBLY, who responded well to an attacking ride when scoring at Wolverhampton 12 days ago and Jack Morland's charge can defy a small rise in the weights sporting first-time cheekpieces. Merrimack can have his latest effort overlooked, so he heads up the dangers returning from a 9-week break, with Alafdhal rounding off the shortlist.

The most appealing option is MERRIMACK who has twice finished runner-up here and had excuses at Lingfield on his latest start.

1	8 1st (8) (15/2 +6%) Flag Carrier		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(8) Flag Carrier 15/2, Wasn't seen to best effect in first-time cheekpieces (now removed) when fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f) 28 days ago but he's no forlorn hope stepping back up to 7f racing off a career-low handicap mark. Has modest strike-rate but was unlucky not to finish closer to the target on latest outing.
2	9 2nd (9) (12/1 +0%) Thomas Equinas		12 12/1(+0%)																															(9) Thomas Equinas 12/1, 4-time C&D winner wasn't seen to best effect at this venue when seventh of 10 in handicap (20/1) at this C&D 28 days ago, having been forced wide on the home turn. Not ruled out from 1 lb below latest winning mark. Needs to better his recent efforts but was a C&D winner off 1lb higher in October.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/1 +36%) Kondratiev Wave		7 7/1(+36%)																															(5) Kondratiev Wave 7/1, C&D winner posted a brace of runners-up efforts prior to a rare below par run when sixth of 10 in a handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW) 22 days ago. Blinkers replace regular cheekpieces and not ruled out if that change has the desired effect. Didn't fire last time but this largely consistent 8yo was in good form beforehand.
4	1 4th (1) (10/3 +67%) Kracking		3.333333 10/3(+67%)																															(1) Kracking 10/3, Headstrong sort again pulled away his chance when last of 6 in handicap at this course (8f) 14 days ago. One to treat with caution. Free-goer who has not been getting home in his recent races; drops back in trip today.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 -25%) Once Adaay		5 5/1(-25%)																															(3) Once Adaay 5/1, C&D winner was fairly strong in the market (after 6 months off) when creditable third of 6 in handicap at this C&D and gave the impression he might even benefit from the outing. Not seen for 77 days but chance if he can back up his latest effort. Triple course winner; ran well here in January, after a break, and remains well treated.
6th	2 6th (2) (10/3 +0%) Stella Hogan		3.333333 10/3(+0%)																															(2) Stella Hogan 10/3, Quirky sort posted a career best when winning 10-runner handicap over C&D in first-time eyeshields on penultimate run. Showed her character again latest, slowly away and took a keen hold when third over a mile at this venue 2 weeks ago. Remains capable at this level if putting it all together. Has her quirks but won over C&D three weeks ago and has run well over 1m since.
7th	4 7th (4) (15/2 -88%) Francisco		7.5 15/2(-88%)																															(4) Francisco 15/2, Has developed a tendency to be slowly away from the stalls, very tardy when third of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 10 days ago. Lightly-raced sort is clearly capable in this sort of company but needs to brush up on his starts. Started slowly in all three handicaps but was placed over 6f the last twice.
8th	6 8th (6) (33/1 -175%) Got No Dollars		33 33/1(-175%)																															(6) Got No Dollars 33/1, C&D winner who notched his seventh career victory in 6-runner handicap at this venue (8f) in January, holding on under largely hands-and-heels riding. Wasn't in the same form off 2 lb higher up in class next time and he may need further leniency from the handicapper (now dropped 1 lb) to win again. 1m course winner in January; still on workable mark but this drop back to 7f is not ideal.
9th	7 9th (7) (28/1 -56%) Just Rita		28 28/1(-56%)																															(7) Just Rita 28/1, Maiden who stepped up markedly on her stable debut effort when second of 9 in handicap (15/2) at Southwell in January. Not quite in the same form (after 10 weeks off) when well-held at the same venue earlier this month but claims if she can step forward from that. Ran well on second of two stable starts but is 0-15 overall; not the percentage call.

Once Adaay was well positioned when fading into third over track and trip in January, but he goes off an unchanged mark and would be foolish to dismiss. Even so, FRANCISCO makes more appeal. The son of Zoustar finished a close-up third over 6f at Wolverhampton and takes a step back up in distance. This is only his fourth start in a handicap and he could take a step forward to strike. Stella Hogan is another to keep an eye on.

Despite her quirks, STELLA HOGAN remains very capable at this level if putting it all together and she may be able to record another C&D victory. Flag Carrier and Thomas Equinas both make each-way appeal from their falling handicap marks, while Francisco has the form to win this but comes with risks attached given his habit of starting slowly.

Three-time course winner ONCE ADAAY returned from a layoff with a good run here in January and remains well handicapped.

Likely contender. In form; this test should be fine for him and he's drawn to save ground; contender.
3	10 3rd (10) (12/1 -20%) A Major Payne		12 12/1(-20%)																															(10) A Major Payne 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (8f, heavy), slowly away. Off 145 days. Work to do on polytrack debut. Had only four starts, showing fair ability; still has potential for yard in flying form.
4	11 4th (11) (6/1 +8%) Flag Of St George		6 6/1(+8%)																															(11) Flag Of St George 6/1, 17/2, good third of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 33 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. On the upgrade recently. Close third in similar race to this at Southwell latest; contender on that form.

Others more appealing. Needs to come back to form, but this test is fine and he's handily weighted on his best.

7th	2 7th (2) (8/1 +56%) Billy Mill		8 8/1(+56%)																															(2) Billy Mill 8/1, Three wins from 12 runs last year. Seventh of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 12/1) 29 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Beaten under 2l when fifth of 16 in C&D Class 3 handicap in January; chance on that level.
7th	12 7th (12) (16/1 +20%) Swiss Ace		16 16/1(+20%)																															(12) Swiss Ace 16/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 14 days ago. Not out of things. Typically races over shorter and last three wins gained in 7f AW Newcastle handicaps.
9th	7 9th (7) (7/1 +13%) Charming Whisper		7 7/1(+13%)																															(7) Charming Whisper 7/1, Likely needed run, back from 4 months off, when fifth of 8 in handicap over C&D 28 days ago. 2 lb lower now and merits consideration. Contender if building on recent reappearance fifth in a similar race over C&D.
10th	3 10th (3) (80/1 -60%) Cill Mocheallog		80 80/1(-60%)																															(3) Cill Mocheallog 80/1, 125/1 and hooded for 1st time, last of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (8f, AW). Off 114 days. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Hard to fancy. Had wind operation. Lightly raced; useful winner in Ireland last year; lost his way but has had a breathing op.
11th	4 11th (4) (25/1 -150%) Lady Flora		25 25/1(-150%)																															(4) Lady Flora 25/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 20/1) 23 days ago.

KITARO KICH's winning run came to an end with a solid runner-up effort over C&D, but he lost little in defeat and a 2lb rise may not be enough to stop him from getting his head back in front. Lady Flora has strong claims on last month's second at Kempton, while Where's Freddy has the potential to improve for going back up to a mile.

Preference is for CHARMING WHISPER, who has dropped to a handy mark and should be straighter for last month's course reappearance. Kitaro Kich and Where's Freddy rate the principal dangers.

A competitive handicap in which WHERE'S FREDDY makes most appeal, coming into this in form, handily drawn and under a top jockey.

A promising third on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton when keeping on from off the pace, RULING MASTER gets a tentative vote to break the maiden, having been runner-up over C&D on his penultimate outing. Lightening Mann did it well when scoring comfortably over a mile at Lingfield earlier in the month and he must enter calculations, along with the returning Glenridding, who is 4lb above his last winning mark.

Lingfield maiden winner LIGHTENING MANN may have more to offer yet and is taken to make a successful handicap debut. Ruling Master and Lady Mariko can also make their presence felt.

Perhaps the most interesting runner is handicap debutante LADY CHARTWELL, who looked promising over 7f on turf last summer.

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.
