Return Fire

12/1(-33%)
(4) Return Fire 12/1, Progressive form over hurdles, finding only one too good in a Kelso novice starting out for this yard in November. Opening mark looks fair.

Palmers Hill

7.5/1(-15%)

Five Star Getaway

33/1(-136%)
(12) Five Star Getaway 33/1, Ex-pointer who progressed rapidly upon going chasing last term, easily winning 3 handicaps. Should have come on for Chepstow return, so may well get back on the up.

Clan Legend

12/1(+33%)
(10) Clan Legend 12/1, In good form last season, including a win in this corresponding race (from 6 lb lower) last year. Solid return when third at Ayr 18 days ago, so all set for a bold showing despite his advancing years.

Riders Onthe Storm

22/1(-144%)
(1) Riders Onthe Storm 22/1, Looked a classy chaser in 2019/20 but lost his way for Nigel Twiston-Davies last season, so returns from 9 months off with plenty to prove.

Galahad Quest

4/1(+0%)
(9) Galahad Quest 4/1, Grade 2 hurdles winner who made it third time lucky over fences at Haydock (19.9f) in February. Better than result both outings this season, so claims if they go a solid gallop.

Midnightreferendum

9/1(+10%)
(11) Midnightreferendum 9/1, Useful mare who looked as good as ever when runner-up in listed company at Market Rasen on reappearance. Mark remains a fair one and this bigger field/stronger pace should suit her.

Annual Invictus

4/1(+38%)
(4) Annual Invictus 4/1, Progressive novice hurdler and quickly even better over fences, landing Cheltenham handicap over this trip in October before easily landing the odds in a match at Plumpton. Excellent claims.

Pink Legend

6.5/1(-30%)
(6) Pink Legend 6.5/1, Highly likeable chaser who returned with a career-best effort to make all at Ascot on reappearance, albeit capitalising on the shortcomings of others to some degree. Should give her all again.

Umbrigado

10/1(-67%)
(3) Umbrigado 10/1, Made big strides forward over fences last season, completing hat-trick in Greatwood Gold Cup at Newbury in March. Satisfactory couple of spins over hurdles so far this term, so one to consider.

No Getaway

22/1(-22%)
(8) No Getaway 22/1, Easy winner of Sandown handicap chase in February and shaped as if still in form (found little) on sole start since. Unexposed in this sphere and yard are likely to have him fit for this return.

The Big Bite

28/1(-27%)
(2) The Big Bite 28/1, Winning start for this yard on return at Aintree last term and followed that with a couple of creditable efforts in defeat. Let down by jumping the last twice, though, so others make more appeal.

(10) Tiki Fire (200/1 +0%)
Tiki Fire

200/1(+0%)
(10) Tiki Fire 200/1, Fair maiden on Flat for Karl Burke (stays 1½m). Changed hands for 10,000 gns but didn't offer much short-term encouragement when well held seventh on hurdles bow at Fakenham (2m) in October.
1
1st (8) Sea Sessions (8/1 +0%)
Sea Sessions

8/1(+0%)
(8) Sea Sessions 8/1, Fair Flat winner who has made a sound start over hurdles, not helped by the steady gallop when runner-up at Down Royal (16.8f) on her latest outing in October. However, others appeal more on balance.

Calvados

10/1(+29%)
(4) Calvados 10/1, Irish raider who landed a Ballinrobe juvenile (16.3f) in August and best effort yet when third at Punchestown in October, no extra run-in. This demands more though if she's to resume winning ways.

White Pepper

1.5/1(+8%)
(11) White Pepper 1.5/1, Fairly useful on Flat and all the better for hurdles debut when running away with a Galway juvenile hurdle (16.4f) in October. Highly likely there is more to come and of obvious interest here.

Malakahna

5.5/1(+39%)
(7) Malakahna 5.5/1, Won 1½m maiden on second of 2 starts in France in June. Acquired for €40,000 thereafter and perfect start to hurdling career when landing Fakenham juvenile (2m) in October. Player with more to come.

Native River

2.5/1(+17%)
(2) Native River 2.5/1, Bagged this prize in 2019 and added the Cotswolds Chase to his big-race haul last season. Well below par here when last seen in April, but will be a danger to all if conditions are testing.

Elvis Mail

20/1(-25%)
(2) Elvis Mail 20/1, Useful hurdler/chaser. Might have needed the run when a bit below par on his chase reappearance (made a couple of mistakes). Now back over the smaller obstacles.
5th
5th (1) Ballyandy (11/1 +31%)
Ballyandy

11/1(+31%)
(1) Ballyandy 11/1, Has several good efforts to his name in strong handicaps but his 2 runs this season have been disappointing. Remains to be seen if a step back up in trip improves matters.
6th
6th (7) Straw Fan Jack (8.5/1 +39%)
Straw Fan Jack

8.5/1(+39%)
(7) Straw Fan Jack 8.5/1, Course winner who was a very good second on his 2m Cheltenham reappearance in October but not in the same form in the Greatwood back there 3 weeks later. Steps back up in trip now.
7th
7th (3) Midnight River (9/1 -38%)
Midnight River

9/1(-38%)
(3) Midnight River 9/1, Useful 3-time novice hurdle winer last term. Jumping fell apart after early error on his Carlisle chase debut/return, behind when eventually coming down 3 out. Retains potential back hurdling.
8th
8th (9) Storm Nelson (16/1 +0%)
Storm Nelson

16/1(+0%)
(9) Storm Nelson 16/1, Much improved when racking up a quick hat-trick in handicap hurdles for new yard in the spring. Runs off further 11 lb higher on this reappearance but it would be no surprise if he has more to offer.
9th
9th (8) Martinhal (16/1 -33%)
Martinhal

16/1(-33%)
(8) Martinhal 16/1, Won maiden/novice hurdles on heavy at Exeter last winter. Bombed out in Martin Pipe at Cheltenham on final start but he returns as an unexposed sort for a good yard.
|F|
|F| (14) Canford Light (100/1 -400%)
Canford Light

100/1(-400%)
(14) Canford Light 100/1, Made bright start over hurdles in Ireland, including 6-length win in 2m Kilbeggan maiden in July. Didn't need to match that to land small-field Ludlow novice on yard debut and this mark demands more.
10th
10th (11) Winningseverything (14/1 -40%)
Winningseverything

14/1(-40%)
(11) Winningseverything 14/1, Lightly raced since scoring twice in 2019 but his 2 handicap fourths this season have been creditable. Will need a bit more if he's to take this but low-mileage profile provides hope. Tongue tie on.
|PU|
|PU| (15) Aurora Thunder (28/1 +15%)
Aurora Thunder

28/1(+15%)
(15) Aurora Thunder 28/1, Placed on her last 3 starts in handicap hurdles, the latest at Musselburgh (3m) last month, but she may struggle to extend that run to 4 in this deeper affair.
|PU|
|PU| (5) Albert's Back (33/1 -32%)
Albert's Back

33/1(-32%)
(5) Albert's Back 33/1, Decisive winner of handicap hurdles at Wetherby and Haydock at a similar time last year. Fell early back at Wetherby in February and not seen again until well held at Carlisle in October.

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.
