Class & Speed Card

Preference is for LANCASHIRE LIFE who has been placed in her last four visits here and is more likely to run her race than many.
Class & Speed Card

Nursery newcomers Battle Charge and THE BITTER MOOSE could take steps forward today and the selection's debut was promising.
Class & Speed Card

Interesting newcomers QUEEN OF MOUGINS and Extraordinaire head the shortlist, ahead of Bourgeoisie and Al Hujaija.
Class & Speed Card

This revolves around LEXINGTON BELLE who is 8lb well in under a penalty for her recent emphatic success at Thirsk on nursery debut.
Class & Speed Card

Nina Rapida and BELLE FLORA both shaped well on debut and the selection can take a big step forward over this new trip.
Class & Speed Card

The best form is represented by the two colts who showed clear promise here four weeks ago, namely BOILING POINT and Thyer.
Class & Speed Card

This can go to NAAEY who hasn't been seen since narrowly beaten on her Kempton debut last November, but the form has worked out well.
Class & Speed Card

The old-timers Count Otto and MUSCIKA can fight this out with David O'Meara's 9yo marginally preferred.
Class & Speed Card

With a solid-looking chance on form, KINGSWOOD FLYER is taken to defy top weight. Count Palatine is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

The vote goes to the 3yo BRAVE KNIGHT who only found an improver too strong when stepped up this distance at Sandown last time.
Class & Speed Card

A trappy race. Lexington Hero is high on the list now down in grade but COME ON JOHN is marginally preferred.
Class & Speed Card

Having posted sound efforts at two major festivals, JUNIPER BERRIES holds particularly strong claims. Miaharris is feared most.
Class & Speed Card

Another chance is given to the 3yo UNLIMITED DATA who goes well here, with his record over C&D reading 113.
Class & Speed Card

Imperial Dream still has potential back at 7f but REDREDROBIN (nap) is on a roll this summer and can complete a C&D hat-trick.
Class & Speed Card

This looks like an excellent opportunity for SHE'S QUALITY providing she has fully recovered from her run at the Curragh last Sunday
Class & Speed Card

After his promising debut at York APIARIST is taken to get off the mark at his second attempt by beating Sailthisshipalone.
Class & Speed Card

Judged on the strength of his final novice effort, HALLA DUBAI (nap) is well worth another chance. Be Prepared is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

This looks like a good opportunity for SALVADOR ZIGGY (nap) who was impressive when winning on his chase debut at Punchestown
Class & Speed Card

This looks good for JACK OF CLUBS (nap) who finished a close third over C&D last month and only found one too good at Thirsk last week.
Class & Speed Card

Turquoise Diamond is bred to be better than this level but AW winner BUY THE DIP may be able to exploit his lowly turf mark.
Class & Speed Card

Jamie Powell's 5lb claim could do the trick for NEVER SHOUT NEVER who is the least exposed horse in the race
Class & Speed Card

This looks less competitive than the first division and SILENT MOVE can prove he is better than he showed on his debut at York.
Class & Speed Card

Carp Kid bids for a hat-trick. Preference is for AL HARGAH whose late surge so nearly took her to the front at Windsor on Monday.
Class & Speed Card

C'EST QUELQU'UN was turned over at short odds at Limerick and he will certainly make the market for an each-way bet but he should win
Class & Speed Card

This can go to NORTH VIEW, who sets a good standard on his debut third at Ascot and is open to progress on this step up in trip.
Class & Speed Card

Irish 1000 Guineas fourth TARAWA has an edge over the best of the older runners Cosmic Vega and Carrytheone on previous form
Class & Speed Card

Midnite Storm has shown the most promise but the newcomers may have a good opportunity, with APOCALYX preferred to Pen Portrait.
Class & Speed Card

Whatever is sent off favourite should win, especially as it is hard to be confident about Doctor Brown Bear. FERMOYLE is reliable
Class & Speed Card

Recent C&D winner PORFIN (nap) went close under a penalty at Yarmouth last week and is well treated on this return to sprinting.
Class & Speed Card

Ryan Moore's choice of BOOGIE WOOGIE over the Irish Oaks third Library is a little surprising but is a hint that is hard to ignore
Class & Speed Card

The form on offer is markedly better than that in the first division, with the best of it from RAWAASI after her bold show at Ascot.
Class & Speed Card

Noel Dooly would likely have looked at this Festival for the lightly raced O'FAOLAINS GLORY. She may do more. Betty Dutton is noted
Class & Speed Card

It's hard to get away from ODDYSSEY, who has been placed in Listed/Group 2 events in his last two starts and sets a high standard.
Class & Speed Card

The 83-rated Van Demon sets a reasonable standard but slight preference is for JUPITER ROCK who can improve over this trip
Class & Speed Card

With the form of his latest win at Windsor having worked out well, ABATE is taken to win his fourth race of the season.
Class & Speed Card

SEA ASTER may have more improvement than most of these, especially if her jumping is more fluent
Class & Speed Card

An open race in which SOUTHWOLD gets the vote ahead of Bird Of Play and last-time-out course winner Where's Freddy.
Class & Speed Card

A chance taken on CALIFORNIA GEM who is proven in the conditions and could be a potential improver over this new trip
Class & Speed Card

Further progress is on the cards from CAPITAL GUARANTEE on his second run for David O'Meara. Roaring Ralph is feared the most.
Class & Speed Card

Although his stamina is unproven recent Limerick winner HARD RAIN could be worth taking a chance on
Class & Speed Card

The vote goes to SQUEEZEBOX, who has won two of his last three starts and hit a clear personal over C&D last time.
Class & Speed Card

Golden Days will be popular in her hat-trick bid but BENERVILLE could go well after a promising run at the Curragh on Sunday
Class & Speed Card

The drop back in class is taken to enable EDWINA SHEERAN (nap) to account for last year's race 1-2 Jamih and Valley Of Flowers.
Class & Speed Card

A bumper which may not take much winning and the Willie Mullins-trained debutante CAMAN EILEEN could well be good enough
Class & Speed Card

Top of the list is the progressive 3yo SUDDEN AMBUSH, who made it three wins from his last six runs when scoring at Windsor last month.
Class & Speed Card

ROSE OF MALTA should go well if she comes on from her low-key reappearance and returns to last year's level of form when a C&D 2nd
Class & Speed Card

Down into a class 5 handicap for the first time, last-time Haydock second BOWLAND PARK may prove the answer ahead of Arranmore.

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.
