2	1 2nd (1) (2/1 +0%) Londoner	2 2/1(+0%)	(1) Londoner 2/1, Well backed when landing a handicap by a head off 78 at Newcastle last time from career low mark; 5lb rise could scupper chances Penalised for last week's AW win but still has handicapping scope; strong contender.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 -14%) Wadacre Gomez	16 16/1(-14%)	(2) Wadacre Gomez 16/1, Down the field in a handicap at Chester most recent; better form on AW; placed at Wolverhampton prior; could contend from 10lb lower than penultimate run Better on AW than turf but handicapped as such; easy lead possible; can't ignore.

5th	3 5th (3) (7/2 -75%) Robbo	3.5 7/2(-75%)	(3) Robbo 7/2, Ran to form beaten 2 1/4l off 78 at Windsor last time; excuses prior over 1m here; career low mark; chance Retains all his ability and appeals as the type to be winning soon; should stay this far.

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

LONDONER justified favouritism on only his second start for the Kublers' stable and now has a 5lb penalty to carry. The five-year-old remains on a workable mark and could be the one to beat again. Gincident has finished third on each of his last three outings, most recently over C&D, and he should remain competitive. Robbo is the pick of the remainder.

A trappy race in which LONDONER is tentatively selected to defy a penalty for last week's Newcastle success. Robbo is next best.

1	1 1st (1) (13/8 -18%) Godsend	1.625 13/8(-18%)	(1) Godsend 13/8, Yard won this last year; has been in great form recently, winning four of his last five starts; up another 4lbs, but that shouldn't stop him going very well Progressive last term and is 4-6 in handicaps; respected on reappearance.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 +40%) Weddell Sea	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(2) Weddell Sea 9/2, Has scored twice this year at Newcastle; struggled last time and is the outsider here In very good form on Newcastle AW this year; 0-17 in Flat turf contests.
3	3 3rd (3) (1/1 -10%) Toby Tops	1 1/1(-10%)	(3) Toby Tops 1/1, Has won three of last four, including last time out when a bit slowly away; also a C&D winner; ought to cope with a 7lb rise and is a big danger Progressive this spring and latest win took his 2m form figures to 6111.

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

TOBY TOPS has improved since being fitted with blinkers this term. The son of Siyouni made it three wins from his last four starts when on target at Ascot recently and, although 7lb higher, he's likely to have more to offer. Godsend was progressive last season and remains of interest despite the absence, while Weddell Sea looks booked for third.

The opener features an interesting clash between the progressive 4yos TOBY TOPS (narrowly preferred) and Godsend.

3	2 3rd (2) (28/1 +0%) Persian Vision	28 28/1(+0%)	(2) Persian Vision 28/1, Down the field in a novice over 8f at Windsor most recent; could improve up in trip; plenty more needed Well beaten in two 1m runs this spring; should stay but needs a good step forward.
4	3 4th (3) (50/1 -52%) Burano Murano	50 50/1(-52%)	(3) Burano Murano 50/1, Beaten 9l in a maiden at Windsor last time after poor debut prior; trainer in form; minor chance Modest form in two 1m2f runs five months apart; eyeshields off today; others stronger.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 -11%) Wiz	5 5/1(-11%)	(4) Wiz 5/1, 30,000gns Calyx gelding; half-brother to Star Of Orion, smart at 7f; dam very smart at miler Harpist; blinkers first time; probably effective 1m2f; interesting 30,000gns half-brother to two winners; dam a useful 7f winner; hood/blinkers on for debut.

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

CAYMAN DANCER progressed from his debut to shed his maiden tag when making all at Chelmsford earlier in the month and is likely to have more improvement in him. The son of Sea The Moon seems to certainly know his job and can put his experience to good use in order to defy his 7lb penalty. Percy's Daydream was well held in third at Ripon last month, but could get closer on only his third outing. Any market confidence behind newcomer Wiz would be interesting.

The standard is set by CAYMAN DANCER and he remains open to further progress. Percy's Daydream is feared most.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (7/4 +61%) Jubilant	1.75 7/4(+61%)	(1) Jubilant 7/4, Below par comfortably held in a handicap hurdle over 3m1f at Plumpton last time; trainer in form; good mark on best hurdle form; top jockey booked; leading player on chase debut Quite stylish hurdle winner in February but yet to build on that performance; chase debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (13/2 +0%) Halondo	6.5 13/2(+0%)	(2) Halondo 13/2, Well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m3f at Warwick latest; generally out of form; cheekpieces first time; not proven trip; outside chance on chase debut but may find ground on the quick side Made low-key stable debut over hurdles but may yet come good for Dan Skelton.
3	3 3rd (3) (9/1 -64%) Just Three	9 9/1(-64%)	(3) Just Three 9/1, Ran to form 30l third in a novice chase over 2m7f at Killarney most recent run though likely flattered; good ground suits; vulnerable to less exposed rival Has better chance at the weights now back in a handicap but career strike-rate is 0-20.
4	4 4th (4) (11/10 -51%) Ghost Hunter	1.1 11/10(-51%)	(4) Ghost Hunter 11/10, Ideally suited by trip when landing a handicap by 4l off 105 at Chepstow last time; significant jockey booking; going well when running out here on debut; could make amends Rewarded patient ride at Chepstow last month and remains lightly raced; good chance.

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

GHOST HUNTER produced arguably one of the performances of last season when overcoming being tailed off halfway through the race to come through and run out a four-length victor at Chepstow in April. Jamie Snowden's six-year-old is just 2lb higher for that incredible effort and can follow up. Jubilant ran too badly to be true when last of five at Plumpton over hurdles last time, but is an interesting contender on his chasing debut. Halondo can beat Just Three home for third.

The most obvious answer is GHOST HUNTER, who was nudged up only 2lb after winning readily from a long way off the pace at Chepstow.

2	3 2nd (3) (8/1 +43%) Snow Berry	8 8/1(+43%)	(3) Snow Berry 8/1, Slowly away and beaten 7l in a handicap over 6f at Wolverhampton last time; down in trip; has been off since January; needs to find a bit Conditions to suit and on a good mark; back from a break but there are positives.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/2 +13%) Banana	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(5) Banana 7/2, Won on penultimate start and was very close to backing that up last time; didn't quite see out that trip; back to 5f today; good chance Belatedly off the mark at Bath two weeks ago; another good run back there latest; solid.
4	10 4th (10) (14/1 -56%) Gypsy Nation	14 14/1(-56%)	(10) Gypsy Nation 14/1, Maiden after 20 runs; never made the first three; looks to have a bit to do Exposed 20-race maiden; needs more for today's drop back to 5f.
5th	2 5th (2) (6/1 +0%) Jamie Bond	6 6/1(+0%)	(2) Jamie Bond 6/1, Had no chance last time, never got a run; his run two starts back was alright, but he would need better than penultimate start to win this Met all sorts of trouble at Catterick last week; this could be run to suit; each-way shout.
6th	6 6th (6) (17/2 -89%) Stroxx	8.5 17/2(-89%)	(6) Stroxx 17/2, Put in a below par effort on penultimate start (jockey said he didn't travel); back to form last time when slightly hampered; high on the list Two wins this year and last week's Catterick second was a good run; solid contender.
7th	7 7th (7) (28/1 -12%) Dunnington Lad	28 28/1(-12%)	(7) Dunnington Lad 28/1, Out of sorts this year; has a fair bit to find Two Ripon wins last year; dangerous mark but yet to fire this year; tongue-tie returns.
8th	1 8th (1) (10/3 +39%) Antiphon	3.333333 10/3(+39%)	(1) Antiphon 10/3, Generally out of form, including last time when down the field (slightly hampered); needs a revival Thrown in on last summer's form; down in grade and can't be discounted.
9th	9 9th (9) (12/1 -50%) Marcus	12 12/1(-50%)	(9) Marcus 12/1, Still a maiden after 17 runs; may have needed it last time; can play a part Exposed maiden but travelled quite nicely after break at Southwell 19 days ago; e-w shout.
10th	8 10th (8) (11/1 -57%) Tilsworth Ony Ta	11 11/1(-57%)	(8) Tilsworth Ony Ta 11/1, Back to form last time when behind Banana; was a little slowly away; can challenge Five-time winner; knocking at the door this year but finished behind Banana last time.

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

It took 48 attempts for BANANA to open her account, but she proved there was no fluke about that performance when beaten a neck next time out. Scott Dixon's charge is clearly thriving at present and in a contest lacking depth, she could double her tally. Marcus shaped with promise when returning from an absence at Southwell recently and the booking of David Egan catches the eye. Others to note include Tilsworth Ony Ta and Masterclass.

Jamie Bond and Antiphon are on the shortist but SNOW BERRY goes well here and returns from a short break on a dangerous mark.

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

IN A HURRY finished second in her sole juvenile start at Newcastle last year and built on that promise when hitting the woodwork on her return at Ayr last month. The daughter of Time Test looks to have found a nice opportunity to get her career up and running. Fantasmic has made the frame on each of her two outings, with her better effort coming at Goodwood earlier in the month, and she has to be taken seriously. Life Is Rosie completes the shortlist.

Life Is Rosie and In A Hurry are solid contenders but FANTASMIC shaped nicely at Goodwood and remains capable of better.

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

Duke Of Luckley struck over C&D prior to showing his versatility to score over 2m3f at Catterick when last seen in November and has to be respected on his return to the fray. However, HAREL DU MARAIS was only beaten a length into second in this class at Huntingdon earlier in the month and the assessor may have been kind to leave his mark alone. The eight-year-old is taken to record a third C&D victory, while Asian Star is another to keep an eye on.

The pick is well-handicapped 8yo EL MUCHACHO, who caught the eye when travelling well for a long way on last month's stable debut.

All of these are open to further improvement so can't be written off, although preference is for HYMNBOOK. The Acclamation colt pulled well clear with the winner when going down a short head at Wetherby last time out and any further progress ought to suffice. King's Charter fetched 650,000 euros as a yearling and has time to do better as a three-year-old, while others to note include debutant High Degree and Displaying.

The biggest form contenders are King's Charter and HYMNBOOK. The latter has the benefit of recent match practice.

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

Having made all on her stable debut at Wetherby last month, there could be more to come from PROFIT REFUSED. Ollie Sangster's filly scored a shade cosily and she could make light work of a 4lb rise from the assessor. Under The Twilight's stamina appeared stretched by the extended 1m at Nottingham three weeks ago and, reverting to class 4 company, she warrants respect. The seven-year-old may serve the most resistance to the selection, ahead of Urban Sprawl.

Plenty of interest despite the small field. UNDER THE TWILIGHT is handicapped to win and is marginally preferred to Profit Refused.

LTO Selection:hiden content,

With hardly any form to go off, only a tentative vote goes to EREMENKO, who is closely related to Cheltenham Festival winner Doddiethegreat. The daughter of Walk In The Park goes for the Nicky Henderson team and could make an instant impression. No Tricks At All was a 125,000 euro purchase who is related to a few winners and needs to be monitored in the market on his debut, along with newcomer Atomic Sonic.

A good bumper for the time of year on paper. NO TRICKS AT ALL, a daughter of a French Group 3 Flat winner, appeals most.

MRS TWIG won four times last year, including her seasonal debut, and is taken to continue that good progress on her return. A winner over this distance at Newmarket in September, a 4lb higher mark is unlikely to prevent another bold bid. A recent maiden winner at Bath, this extra yardage may bring about further progress from Castro Aurum, while North Star also looks the type to do better now handicapping for the first time.

Preference is for MANARA, who has steadily progressive RPRs since switched to handicaps. North Star is second choice.

TOOLATETONEGOTIATE has been knocking on the door at this level of late and, racing off an unchanged mark, she makes grand appeal. A reproduction of her latest second at Bath could prove sufficient, with the addition of first-time cheekpieces looking a positive move. Ghostman capped off his juvenile campaign with a respectable fifth at Wolverhampton and it will be interesting to see how he fares in the market on his return. Hello Luna is also noted.

Toolatetonegotiate looks solid for a big run but VIRTUE TEMPERANCE could resume her progress with cheekpieces fitted.

Although she proved no match for an odds-on winner at Stratford recently, LASTING LOVE offered plenty of encouragement. Today's contest looks ripe for the taking and the four-year-old could take all the catching if adopting front-running tactics once more. Hurdles debutant Taktique Gagnante was somewhat underwhelming when finishing down the field in a class 2 bumper for mares at Cheltenham last month, but she warrants respect if judged on her penultimate third at Cork. Global Hideaway appears best of the remainder.

Preference is for TAKTIQUE GAGNANTE, who was placed in a big-field Irish bumper in January and should have a future over jumps.

DESERT SHADOW took a big step forward when finishing a creditable second at Chelmsford. That was his first start over 1m2f and the son of Siyouni should have more to offer over middle-distances. The latter comment also applies to Serenity Blue, who was doing his best work at the finish when fifth at Leicester, while the 200,000gns newcomer Native Spirit should be noted with Charlie Appleby's yard in such fine form.

Despite a couple of short-priced defeats, another chance is given to ONLY ONE BLUE. Second choice is Desert Shadow.

Honour Your Dreams was rewarded for his credible efforts in defeat at Chelmsford and Doncaster when landing the spoils at Windsor recently. However, a 5lb penalty does demand more from Mick Appleby's gelding and it may be worth chancing LAST OUTLAW. The four-year-old shaped with distinct promise on his fourth-placed stable bow at Ascot 10 days ago and a 1lb ease in the ratings may prove fruitful. Mart is the pick of the remainder.

He has a 5lb penalty to shoulder but HONOUR YOUR DREAMS (nap) won tidily at Windsor last week and he can follow up.

Dartmouth Rose posted her best effort to date when finishing second on her handicap bow at Fakenham a fortnight ago and another good showing is forecast. However, Tom Lacey has his string in fine fettle at present and it could be worth chancing MATCHADAM on his seasonal debut. The seven-year-old was last seen finishing third over an extended 3m at this venue and this ease in distance looks ideal. Conversely, The Last Drop is stepping up in trip and is worth a second look.

After a respectable handicap debut over 2m, THE LAST DROP looks interesting over this new trip. Matchadam is second choice.

MAN OF LA MANCHA returned the convincing winner at Windsor on his handicap debut last week. A 6lb penalty is negated by an apprentice's allowance and Ralph Beckett's charge can go in again before the handicapper has his say. Zarathos has been threatening to open his account and was beaten only a head when third at Doncaster last month, while Windsor runner-up Herculeus represents last year's winning trainer and is also noted.

He's in a stronger-looking race for the grade this time but MAN OF LA MANCHA (nap) is still preferred. Zarathos is second pick.

Second on debut over the course and distance a fortnight ago, ROGUE LEGEND is the standout contender. Sent off a well-backed odds-on chance, things didn't go smoothly for the Havana Grey colt. Slightly slow into stride, he showed signs of greenness thereafter, coming home well in the closing stages to fill the runner-up spot. Raphello and Believe In Glory were third and fourth behind the selection. A brother to the high-class Flotus, the Joseph O'Brien-trained former is likely to step forward from that initial effort, while the same can be said for the Ken Condon-trained latter. Third on debut at Tipperary, Baker Blue is sure to have his supporters.

Some 2yos with a promising future including ROGUE LEGEND who had a couple of these behind when 2nd over C&D and he should improve

James Owen has been pulling up trees with his stable debutants of late, so Leading Force warrants a market check with champion jockey Sean Bowen in the plate. However, FOX'S SOCKS looks the most solid proposition after finding only a rejuvenated rival too strong at Huntingdon recently. A 1lb nudge up in the ratings may prove inconsequential for Mike Sowersby's gelding and compensation may beckon. Irish raider Moonshine Girl completes the shortlist.

Back on a good mark if judged on some of last summer's form, INDIAN SUNBIRD (nap) has conditions to suit and gets the vote.

A competitive affair, with handicap debutant TROPICAL RETREAT the suggestion. The subject of good market support when fourth on debut at Dundalk before Christmas, she since made the breakthrough when dropped to the minimum trip at the all-weather venue. Starting on turf now, she could prove nicely treated off an initial mark of 72. Top-weight Likedbymike returns to calmer waters after finishing last over the course and distance earlier this month. Hampered with over a furlong to go in that Listed heat, she was given an easy time of it thereafter. Beauty Queen was seventh in that same contest and it'll be interesting to see how she fares in first-time cheekpieces. The 88-rated Jorge Alvares, Tipperary winner Bobbi Rosa and the Denis Hogan-trained Sarahmae are others to note.

A drop to 5f seems to have really helped SARAHMAE who is on an upward trajectory and this is easier than the Naas h'cap last time out

Having relished a return to an extended 2m7f at Uttoxeter 17 days ago, MAX'S CHAMP makes grand appeal in his follow-up bid. The Champs Elysees gelding scored with something in hand and a 5lb higher mark could prove lenient. Although he hasn't proved the most consistent in the past, Tartan Cookie must enter calculations after scoring over C&D earlier this month. Ewan Whillans' inmate is feared most, ahead of Rumble B, who was behind in third.

Consistent RUMBLE B can reap the reward from some decent placed efforts recently by reversing C&D placings with Tartan Cookie.

LITTLE SOIREE would likely have placed at Plumpton last time, if not for being hampered by a faller at the last. Narrowly beaten at that track back in February, Chris Gordon's inmate has eased 2lb in the weights and a bold bid is expected with normal luck in running. Window Of Time looks on a fair mark based on her third at Southwell, while Alvesta is one to note handicapping over hurdles for the first time.

Handicap newcomer ALVESTA (nap) lacks experience but her opening mark looks manageable.

AN LAOCHMOR might be able to make the breakthrough in this open affair. In a first-time visor he put in a career-best effort to finish fourth on his penultimate start at Navan and he again filled the same position when last seen in a 27-runner contest at the Curragh. With less rivals to contend with here, the Jimmy Coogan-trained four-year-old looks sure to give a good account of himself. While consistent, My Girl Sioux has just one win to her name from 48 starts. Beaten into second at Navan on Saturday, it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a place better. Starting off for rookie trainer Maurice Ahern, it'll be interesting to see how seven-time winner Art Of Unity fares.

The unexposed AN LAOCHMOR may be the way to go having outrun his odds in a couple of big field turf handicaps since fitted with a visor

Having overcome a mishap at the second fence over track and trip recently, WILLIE SHAKE HANDS should have more to come in this discipline. That was the six-year-old's first outing over the larger obstacles and any improvement may see him doubling his tally. Chase debutant She Won't Mind wasn't disgraced on her latest fourth in a maiden hurdle here and she shouldn't be underestimated reverting to handicap company, while better is expected from Restandbethankful dropping in trip.

NOISY JAZZ is taken to make a winning debut over hurdles. A winner over a mile on the Flat, she's a half-sister to the Ascot Gold Cup hero Big Orange, and James Owen's charge could be bang there at the finish if taking to this discipline. The selection's stablemate High Court Judge ran well for a long way when fourth at Worcester and is noted, while Arcon has gone close over 2m on the Flat and could feature on his hurdling bow.

Noisy Jazz needs respect, especially if settling in the hood, but a chance is taken on ARCON who stayed well on the Flat.

Runner-up on her racecourse debut at the Curragh last month, NO ALIBI can go one place better. Trainer Paddy Twomey can often leave a bit to work on with his newcomers, so the daughter of Blame should be all the better for that initial experience. Even without the anticipated improvement, a reproduction of that effort should be good enough in this race. A first-time tongue-tie is applied here, something that should also aid her cause. Having shown up well over 7f at Gowran Park on her recent stable debut, Stella Alpina is interesting dropped back in trip. Wegotogether is another to consider.

Paddy Twomey's NO ALIBI showed winning potential on debut at the Curragh and she can get off the mark here

Am Still Here offered plenty of encouragement when finishing a close-up second on his chase bow over C&D earlier this month and a 2lb rise is unlikely to prevent another bold showing. However, it might be worth taking a punt on handicap/chase debutant CLASSICAL STING. The son of Scorpion should enjoy this step up in distance and Lewis Dobb's 7lb claim could prove crucial. Time Was is also noted.

Everything points towards this being the ideal opportunity for the recent C&D runner-up AM STILL HERE to make his breakthrough.

SHADOWS IN THE SKY bounced back to form on his first start for James Owen's yard just three days ago. He returned an emphatic winner at Uttoxeter and can strike again while the iron is hot , despite a 7lb penalty. Cloudy Wednesday arrives in fine form and enters calculations, having won this contest in 2023, while Jeudidee will likely be sharper for last month's third at Warwick.

It may be worth taking a chance with JEUDIDEE who made a promising return at Warwick last month (form boosted).

A three-time winner on the all-weather this year, HIGHTIMEYOUWON is of definite interest back on turf. Although equally as effective on the grass, the Stephen Thorne-trained nine-year-old had been out of form before joining the stable in October. As a result, the gelding can race off a 12lb lower mark here than on the Polytrack. With Jack Kearney riding at the top of his game at the minute, the son of Garswood makes plenty of appeal. Eddie G, who suffered a nightmare passage when third at Roscommon earlier this month, has to be a serious threat. Leopardstown winner Dark Viper could also go well.

Having endured a luckless passage on his return, subsequently gelded EDDIE G (nap) may be able to gain compensation from the same mark

ROYAL ENTRY can record a first victory on what is just her second start for trainer Paddy Twomey. Somewhat surprisingly sent off favourite at Killarney last time, she ran well to finish runner-up to a filly rated 18lb higher. The fact that she was so strong in the market against an above-average rival clearly suggests that the daughter of Fracas is showing plenty at home. Compensation awaits here.

The Richard O'Brien-trained METAMORPHEUS can register a first win on the Flat. Successful over hurdles for former connections, the six-year-old has long given the impression that he could be well handicapped back on the level. However, having failed to deliver on such expectations to date, the Morpheus gelding drops back in trip here. Racing keenly, before weakening to finish fourth in a stronger race at Limerick last month, he is certainly worth another chance over this distance. Gardone has to be respected for the Eric McNamara stable. Second at Gowran Park on her penultimate start, Suityourselfboss arrives here in better form than most.

It could be a good opportunity for TARTARAGHAN who likely needed Friday's return and this is her trip

The vote goes to WELL EDUCATED, who landed the corresponding event from 2lb lower 12 months ago. George Bewley's charge has been running with credit over shorter trips recently so returning to this C&D is likely to aid his chance. Hardy Du Seuil and Benson haven't tasted success in a while now, but they ought to be more than competitive at this level.

In an interesting race WELL EDUCATED (nap) is taken to repeat his 2024 win, with Hardy Du Seuil and Benson his two main dangers.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,

Official ratings would suggest that Coolagh Park is the one to beat but, although respected, preference is for KILFILUM WOODS. The nine-year-old arrives following a brace of wins between the flags and, having gone well under Rules here previously, he looks more than capable. Dr Lockdown has plenty to find on figures and appears booked for third spot barring accidents.

Kilfilum Woods will make a bold bid for his hat-trick but marginal preference is for COOLAGH PARK.

Addosh sprang a surprise when winning at odds of 22/1 at Sedgefield recently and although respected under a 7lb penalty, preference is for fellow penalised runner GRAND SCHEME. Sam England's gelding bolted up at Southwell last time out and with the potential of more to come over timber, he could go in again. The consistent Socks Off should be in the mix.

Preference is for GRAND SCHEME who came home 15l clear on only his fifth start over hurdles eight days ago.

About U.K Horse Racing

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

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

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

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

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

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