17:15 Aintree Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (1.88/1 +37%) Charlie My Boy	1.88 1.88/1(+37%)	(7) Charlie My Boy 1.88/1, Big improver over hurdles for this yard, off the mark in 18.5f Newton Abbot novice handicap a fortnight ago under this rider, untidy last but kept up to his work. Can go well again up 4 lb.
2	1 2nd (1) (1.88/1 +25%) Copper Beach	1.88 1.88/1(+25%)	(1) Copper Beach 1.88/1, Much improved as he shed his maiden tag in runaway style in Uttoxeter handicap over this trip last week, drawing clear 2 out. Good conditional up and strong claims under penalty.
3	4 3rd (4) (7.5/1 +25%) Split The Bill	7.5 7.5/1(+25%)	(4) Split The Bill 7.5/1, Fair maiden hurdler for Micky Hammond, his best effort coming over this trip. New yard reach for a tongue tie and he's not without interest.
4	6 4th (6) (14/1 -100%) Fandabidozi	14 14/1(-100%)	(6) Fandabidozi 14/1, Modest stayer on the Flat. Positive start over hurdles under this rider, collared close home at Huntingdon (2m) last time. Not out of it now handicapping back up in trip.
5th	9 5th (9) (40/1 -60%) Living's Boy An Co	40 40/1(-60%)	(9) Living's Boy An Co 40/1, Off the mark in emphatic fashion over fences at Market Rasen (19f) in October but little to write home about in 3 runs since and this looks tough.
6th	8 6th (8) (5.5/1 +8%) Clapton Hill	5.5 5.5/1(+8%)	(8) Clapton Hill 5.5/1, Suspect he hasn't shown all he's capable of and it was an encouraging comeback at Ffos Las over this trip 3 weeks ago. Rider has been among the winners and can take off 6 lb here. Interesting.
7th	3 7th (3) (10/1 +17%) Gilbertina	10 10/1(+17%)	(3) Gilbertina 10/1, Improved with a rallying success on return at Market Rasen on Boxing Day and good efforts at Doncaster next 2 starts. Poor at Huntingdon 10 weeks ago though and upped in trip back from a break now.
8th	2 8th (2) (100/1 -100%) Wicklow Flyer	100 100/1(-100%)	(2) Wicklow Flyer 100/1, Fair winning hurdler in Ireland, landing a Bellewstown claimer on final start for Gordon Elliott in August. However, has shown little since (2 runs for different yard in Ireland, and then for this stable at Cartmel 3 weeks ago). All to prove.

LTO Selection:

17:15 Aintree Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

COPPER BEACH found the step up in trip to 2m4f to his liking when romping home by 13 lengths at Uttoxeter last Thursday, and a 7lb penalty may not be enough to prevent him from completing a double. Charlie My Boy also gained a breakthrough success last time at Newton Abbot and the gelding is dangerous to discount off only 4lb higher. Clapton Hill offered something to work with after finishing fourth at Ffos Las and is another to bear in mind.

COPPER BEACH opened his account in taking style at Uttoxeter last week and is taken to follow up under a penalty. Charlie My Boy got off the mark himself last time at Newton Abbot and can go well again. Fandabidozi is also considered.

This doesn't look the strongest of races and recent Uttoxeter winner COPPER BEACH (nap) is taken to follow up with his penalty.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (3/1 +25%) Two Past Eight	3 3/1(+25%)	(8) Two Past Eight 3/1, Half-brother to fair hurdler/chaser Stylish Dancer. Dam, half-sister to useful hurdler (2m/17f winner) Knight Salute (by Sir Percy): Fair maiden on Flat, stays 1½m, again down the field in handicap last time. Represents yard with superb record in this sphere. 0-6 on the Flat but not devoid of ability and stable usually does well in juvenile hurdles.
2	9 2nd (9) (6/1 +70%) Majestic Jameela	6 6/1(+70%)	(9) Majestic Jameela 6/1, Closely related to bumper winner King of Unicorns, and half-sister to smart hurdler Aqalim (2m-3m winner). Modest form on Flat, stays 1½m, offered little in handicap on stable debut last time. Minor promise on AW in early part of year but came last on recent turf/handicap debut.
3	5 3rd (5) (3.33/1 +17%) Lord Sam's Castle	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(5) Lord Sam's Castle 3.33/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 8.5f) winning twice over 7f at Newcastle. Below form last time but has the raw ability to be a big factor if stamina holds out now hurdling. Dual 7f AW winner in the autumn; off since January; stamina for hurdling not assured.
4	7 4th (7) (16/1 -60%) Sunrise Boy	16 16/1(-60%)	(7) Sunrise Boy 16/1, Modest form on Flat, temperamental effort when last seen in October. Needs to leave that level well behind now tackling obstacles fitted with a hood. Unable to land a telling blow in three 7f maiden/novice races in September/October.
5th	4 5th (4) (12/1 -20%) Logistical	12 12/1(-20%)	(4) Logistical 12/1, Fair maiden on Flat, stays 1½m, below form last time. Has left Andrew Balding and been gelded ahead of this switch to obstacles. Tongue tie on. 0-5 on the Flat but saw out 1m4f pretty well on AW in January (RPR 70).
6th	2 6th (2) (4.5/1 +36%) Devil's Kingdom	4.5 4.5/1(+36%)	(2) Devil's Kingdom 4.5/1, Fair maiden on the Flat, fifth of 6 in minor event at Thirsk (8f, heavy) 36 days ago. In very good hands now switched to obstacles but isn't a certain stayer (dam won over 5f). Placed over 7f as a 2yo; a possible if he stays the trip on hurdling debut.
7th	3 7th (3) (6.5/1 -44%) Hadley Park	6.5 6.5/1(-44%)	(3) Hadley Park 6.5/1, Dam half-sister to fairly useful 21f hurdle winner Post War. Temperamental/fair handicapper on Flat, stays 8.5f, ran poorly last time. Sold from George Boughey 13,000 gns and joined another good yard, but wouldn't be certain to take to this code. Has had a breathing op. RPR of 74 when winning over 1m on AW in November; bought for 13,000gns in February.
8th	1 8th (1) (12/1 +40%) Angel's Voice	12 12/1(+40%)	(1) Angel's Voice 12/1, Modest maiden on Flat, stays 1m, well held in handicap last time. Tongue tie replaces cheekpieces for hurdles debut having had a breathing op. Fair form when placed on nursery debut in October (1m, AW); hurdle debut today.

LTO Selection:

17:50 Aintree Conditions Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

A fair amount of guesswork is required with these hurdling debutants, with a tentative vote going to TWO PAST EIGHT. The Alan King-trained charge showed a bit more fight on the Flat earlier in the month and may enjoy this change of discipline. Strike Alliance represents last year's winning trainer and is another to note if resuming in the same heart that saw him winning on the all-weather in March, while Lord Sam's Castle also enters calculations.

An early-season juvenile with stamina probably not at a premium, so it may pay to side with LORD SAM'S CASTLE, who was the pick of these on the level. Alan King has very few peers in these races so Two Past Eight demands respect, along with Strike Alliance.

A few of these former Flat-racers have dubious stamina credentials but one exception is LOGISTICAL, who is tentatively given the vote.

18:25 Aintree Handicap Chase (Class 3) 25f - 3 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (1.2/1 +31%) Shearer	1.2 1.2/1(+31%)	(1) Shearer 1.2/1, Fairly useful handicap hurdler who looked a natural as he opened account over fences at first attempt in a match at Ludlow (23.8f) 33 days ago, jumping accurately and doing it readily. 2 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold showing. Readily beat only rival on chasing debut last month; this obviously harder but chances.
2	3 2nd (3) (1.8/1 +28%) Landen Calling	1.8 1.8/1(+28%)	(3) Landen Calling 1.8/1, Largely progressive over hurdles last term (scored twice) and took well to chasing at first attempt when bolting up in 4-runner novices' handicap at Bangor (3m) in May. 5 lb higher in what rates a stronger affair but he's a player nevertheless. Easy winner on chasing debut (rivals made errors); up 5lb.
3	5 3rd (5) (2.75/1 +54%) Kakamora	2.75 2.75/1(+54%)	(5) Kakamora 2.75/1, Dual hurdles winner who arrives having landed 2 of last 3 starts over fences, jumping soundly when making all in 4-runner Worcester handicap (23f) 13 days ago. This demand more from 3 lb higher but he's clearly in rude health at present. Has won two of last three; up 3lb and up in class but could cope.

LTO Selection:

18:25 Aintree Handicap Chase (Class 3) 25f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

LANDEN CALLING appeared more at home when making a successful chasing debut at Bangor last month and the seven-year-old could make light work of a 5lb rise. Fellow last-time-out winner Shearer made all at Ludlow and likely has more to offer in this sphere too. He may, however, have a tougher time dictating in this contest with recent Worcester victor Kakamora another who likes to lead.

Competitive despite the small field with the vote in favour of LANDEN CALLING. He jumped/travelled with plenty of purpose when opening his chase account at the first attempt at Bangor 4 weeks ago and a 5 lb rise for that success shouldn't prevent another bold bid. Shearer, a fellow chase debutant scorer at Ludlow, rates a big threat, with Kakamora, who comes here on the back of 2 wins from his last 3 starts, is also respected.

Although taking a sharp rise in class, KAKAMORA is given the nod.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +67%) The Big Lense	4 4/1(+67%)	(1) The Big Lense 4/1, Excuses over hurdles last time and decent efforts in defeat over fences prior to that. Should be in the mix.
2	8 2nd (8) (2.25/1 +18%) Post No Bills	2.25 2.25/1(+18%)	(8) Post No Bills 2.25/1, Point winner who has taken well to fences, runner-up on 4 of his first 5 starts before off the mark in good style at Fontwell. Followed up off 9 lb higher at Cartmel 16 days ago and should go well again despite another 3 lb rise.
3	3 3rd (3) (10/1 -11%) Barton Knoll	10 10/1(-11%)	(3) Barton Knoll 10/1, Excuses over C&D last time but he remains tricky to win with. Others preferred.
4	5 4th (5) (5/1 -67%) Cracking Destiny	5 5/1(-67%)	(5) Cracking Destiny 5/1, May not be the force of old but his handicap mark fully reflects that and there was plenty of encouragement in this return from 11 months off (had breathing operation in interim) when third at Kelso 5 weeks ago. Of interest under Brian Hughes.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (6/1 -71%) De Barley Basket	6 6/1(-71%)	(2) De Barley Basket 6/1, Has developed a fine strike rate over fences, resuming progress when typically making all at Uttoxeter in September. Good second at Wincanton in November and shaped well when third at Cartmel 18 days ago after 7 months off. Entitled to come on for that.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (6.5/1 -18%) Politicise	6.5 6.5/1(-18%)	(7) Politicise 6.5/1, On a long losing run but only just failed at Tipperary last month. Creditable sixth at Killarney since but others better treated here.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (11/1 +8%) The Paddy Pie	11 11/1(+8%)	(6) The Paddy Pie 11/1, Ended a lengthy losing sequence despite being 6 lb out of the weights at Wetherby (19.4f, good to soft) on Boxing Day. Good second back at that venue next time but well below best next 2 starts. Unseated rider at the first at Cartmel since.

19:00 Aintree Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

POST NO BILLS has been progressive of late and defied a 9lb rise when making all over 2m5f at Cartmel last month. Now rated 3lb higher for that success, he can prove difficult to peg back and is fancied to get the better of Barton Knoll, who was pulled up over C&D last time out after a bad mistake but did finish second prior to that at Doncaster. Politicise makes some each-way appeal.

CRACKING DESTINY and De Barley Basket both shaped well on their comeback run and look the pair to concentrate on, with the former getting the nod under Brian Hughes. Post No Bills is another one to consider.

After snatching third over an inadequate 2m in his latest chase, THE BIG LENSE tackles this more suitable trip from a workable mark.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (2.25/1 -29%) Father Of Jazz	2.25 2.25/1(-29%)	(2) Father Of Jazz 2.25/1, Useful Flat winner for Roger Varian but didn't quite match expectations in a trio of hurdle starts for Dan Skelton. Back on track after stable switch when winning 11-runner novice at Kempton in May and followed up under a penalty over C&D last time. More to come now handicapping. Smart on the Flat; has won two novice hurdles for new yard; chance on handicap debut.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 +0%) Hurricane Ali	4 4/1(+0%)	(1) Hurricane Ali 4/1, Genuine type who won 3 times last season, including this corresponding event and showed the benefit of a recent run when third in 11-runner event at Warwick (2m) 23 days ago. Likely to give another good account. Won this race in 2022; now 6lb higher; close third last time and should go well again..
3	6 3rd (6) (3/1 +14%) Chaos Control	3 3/1(+14%)	(6) Chaos Control 3/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat who struck at the third time of asking over hurdles in a Market Rasen juvenile before a respectable sixth in Anniversary Hurdle (Grade 1) at the Grand National meeting. Had little go right back down in grade at Warwick last time and remains of interest. Maiden hurdle winner in February who met trouble in running when 7th last time; a possible.
4	3 4th (3) (3.5/1 +42%) El Borracho	3.5 3.5/1(+42%)	(3) El Borracho 3.5/1, Likeable, versatile campaigner who completed a hurdles/chase hat-trick at Wetherby (15f) in October. Added to his tally on the Flat at Thirsk in May and shaped as if still in good form at back hurdling at Bangor 2 weeks later. Nudged up 3 lb but ought to remain competitive. Clear of a subsequent winner when second at Bangor last time and is worth considering.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 +29%) Gumball	10 10/1(+29%)	(4) Gumball 10/1, Smart hurdler/chaser at his best but is becoming increasingly untrustworthy, reluctant to start and lost around 10 lengths on most recent outing at Cheltenham. Others appeal more. Not in the best of form in second half of last season; on a fair mark; others stronger..
6th	5 6th (5) (25/1 -213%) Esperti	25 25/1(-213%)	(5) Esperti 25/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler in Ireland for Peter Fahey. Returns from 8 months off and market can guide now setting out for new yard. Tongue tied. Ex-Irish maiden hurdle winner; probably best watched on debut for hew yard after a break.

LTO Selection:

19:35 Aintree Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

FATHER OF JAZZ kept on well to win under a penalty over C&D last month and James Owen's inmate left the impression that there would be more to come. He saw off subsequent winner State Of Bliss into third when scoring on his penultimate start and can add to his winning tally here. El Borracho finished a decent second over a similar trip at Bangor last month and is feared most, while Hurricane Ali completes the shortlist.

FATHER OF JAZZ was value for extra when defying a penalty in good style over C&D last month and, with further improvement on the cards now heading into handicaps, he's fancied to complete the hat-trick. Chaos Control can have his latest run at Warwick overlooked and rates the main threat, ahead of the likeable Hurricane Ali, who won this race last year from a 6 lb lower mark.

The smart Flat performer FATHER OF JAZZ is progressing well over hurdles and is taken to complete a hat-trick on his handicap debut.

1	3 1st (3) (4/1 +0%) Blueberry Wine	4 4/1(+0%)	(3) Blueberry Wine 4/1, Likeable type who resumed winning ways in a handicap chase at Huntingdon last time. Another solid showing is on the cards. Four chase wins, the latest at Huntingdon last month; up 5lb but should go well again.
2	4 2nd (4) (2.2/1 +27%) Lermoos Legend	2.2 2.2/1(+27%)	(4) Lermoos Legend 2.2/1, Well treated and returned to form having attracted support when second at Cartmel recently. Stable continues to go well, so he makes most appeal. Won four on the trot in summer of 2021; only one win since, but good effort latest; chance.
3	6 3rd (6) (12/1 -100%) Bempton Cliffs	12 12/1(-100%)	(6) Bempton Cliffs 12/1, Boasts an excellent strike rate over fences and wasn't disgraced when last seen, so he's capable of getting involved if tuned up after 7 months off. Has won 3 of his last five races; fair second on unsuitable going when last out; a chance.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 -100%) Magistrato	8 8/1(-100%)	(2) Magistrato 8/1, Fair winner over hurrdles who left form of his chasing debut well behind to land a 3-runner handicap at Warwick on final outing for Paul Nicholls. Respected 16 days later. Ex-Paul Nicholls; hard puller; reluctant to race 2 runs ago but won next time; a possible.
5th	1 5th (1) (2.75/1 +45%) Sao	2.75 2.75/1(+45%)	(1) Sao 2.75/1, Not scored for some time but was better than bare result at Cartmel last time. On a handy mark and could get involved if the race is run to suit (needs a good pace). Keen-going sort; not won since 2021; now 19lb lower; going no problem; tricky to win with.
6th	5 6th (5) (6/1 +14%) Blaze A Trail	6 6/1(+14%)	(5) Blaze A Trail 6/1, Fair winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland who was revitalised by current yard last term, completing 5-timer in a very weak race at Fontwell back in October. Only third of 4 at Stratford on recent return but could strip fitter for it. Front-runner; won last 5 races last term; creditable 3rd on latest start; one to consider.

LTO Selection:

20:10 Aintree Handicap Chase (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

A winner on two of his previous three starts, BLUEBERRY WINE might still have more to offer and he is taken to defy a subsequent 5lb rise for last month's Huntingdon success. Lermoos Legend almost capitalised on a sliding handicap mark when finishing a good second at Cartmel 18 days ago and he merits respect once more, while Magistrato appeals most of the remainder.

LERMOOS LEGEND has dropped a long way in the weights and he was back on his game at Cartmel recently, so he gets the nod ahead of Magistrato, who won a weak race on his final outing for Paul Nicholls at Warwick 16 days ago. Blueberry Wine is another one to consider.

In a tricky race LERMOOS LEGEND, a good second at Cartmel last time, is taken to beat Blueberry Wine and Blaze A Trail.

1	3 1st (3) (2.5/1 +25%) Born Famous	2.5 2.5/1(+25%)	(3) Born Famous 2.5/1, Failed to win in Ireland but different proposition for new yard, winning handicap hurdle and chase Perth in recent months. Had plenty in hand over fences last time and likely to make a bold bid for the hat-trick back hurdling. Ex-Irish; has won over hurdles (2m4f) and fences (3m) for new yard; going suits; chance.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 -9%) Dicey Rielly	3 3/1(-9%)	(4) Dicey Rielly 3/1, Got off the mark in a chase at Ffos Las (19f) in April and shrugged off a lesser run over fences there a month later when landing a 23f Worcester handicap hurdle 13 days ago. Stable in cracking form and 7 lb rise seems unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Two wins from three starts this year, the latest a 2m7f h'cap hurdle; up 7lb; a possible.
3	6 3rd (6) (2.75/1 +45%) Emily Wade	2.75 2.75/1(+45%)	(6) Emily Wade 2.75/1, Hasn't done much wrong since switched to handicaps in this sphere, winning at Southwell (20.5f) in March and good second on all 3 outings since, the latest when stepped up to 3m+ for the first time at Cartmel. Three good runs since Southwell win in March; up in the ratings, so now 11lb higher.
4	7 4th (7) (8/1 -14%) Maroochi	8 8/1(-14%)	(7) Maroochi 8/1, Deservedly opened her account at Newton Abbot (21.5f) last September. Looked rusty after 6 months off when fifth back at Newton Abbot 16 days ago. Needs to have come on for that. Several good runs last summer (fell last two starts); should come on for reappearance run.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 -8%) Nora The Xplorer	7 7/1(-8%)	(2) Nora The Xplorer 7/1, Pair of mares' novice wins at up to 3m early in 2022 and plenty of creditable efforts in handicaps since, including recent second of 9 at Stratford. Likely to be in the shake-up again. Failed to win last season but good second at Stratford last time (now 3lb higher); chance.
6th	5 6th (5) (14/1 +0%) Martalindy	14 14/1(+0%)	(5) Martalindy 14/1, Won a weak mares' maiden hurdle at Huntingdon last autumn. Only sixth on handicap debut back from a break in April and stopped as if amiss (reported to have made a respiratory noise) when pulled up at Newcastle since. Others are more obvious. Won a 4-runner Huntingdon mares' maiden hurdle in October; mainly disappointing since.
7th	8 7th (8) (28/1 -75%) Miss Pearl	28 28/1(-75%)	(8) Miss Pearl 28/1, Shaped better than previously in a first-time hood/under a change of tactics when fourth of 11 in maiden at Ludlow (21f, good to soft) last month but disappointing sixth of 7 on 3m Ffos Las handicap debut since. Ex-Irish; fair fourth over 2m5f two runs back, but tailed off over 3m last time.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Now 2-2 since joining the Iain Jardine stable, with the latest of her successes coming over fences, it might pay to side with BORN FAMOUS as she goes in search of a hat-trick. Recent Worcester scorer Dicey Rielly merits the utmost respect despite a 7lb rise in the handicap, along with Nora The Xplorer. Emily Wade continues to run well in defeat and can't be ruled out either.

BORN FAMOUS has been transformed by the switch to Iain Jardine and is taken to extend her winning run for her new yard to 3. Dicey Rielly quickened clear in good style at Worcester last time and is feared most for the in-form Peter Bowen team. The consistent Emily Wade is also respected.

Recent Worcester winner DICEY RIELLY is taken to follow up with the in-form Born Famous also likely to give a good account.

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.
