Alflaila

9/1(+10%)
(1) Alflaila 9/1, Debut winner at Salisbury last June and upped his game after, respectable sixth in Group 3 Autumn Stakes at Newmarket (1m) on final outing. Mark has suffered, however.
2

War In Heaven

18/1(+0%)
(8) War In Heaven 18/1, Landed a pair of 6f events during the winter (novice/handicap). Wasn't disgraced after 6 weeks off at Kempton last time but faces a stiffer task from out of the weights in a stronger handicap back on turf.
3
3rd (7) Thunder Legend (2.25/1 +0%)
Thunder Legend

2.25/1(+0%)
(7) Thunder Legend 2.25/1, Improved to get off the mark in good style in an 8.3f maiden at Hamilton in August, quickening clear from 3f out. Sort of progress again this season now handicapping for new yard (has left Hugo Palmer/been gelded).
4
4th (6) Tylos (3.5/1 +0%)
Tylos

3.5/1(+0%)
(6) Tylos 3.5/1, Night Of Thunder colt who confirmed previous promise when making all in a Wolverhampton novice (7f) in August. Shaped a bit better than the bare result on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m) 23 days ago and remains with potential.
5th
5th (5) Honky Tonk Man (18/1 -13%)
Honky Tonk Man

18/1(-13%)
(5) Honky Tonk Man 18/1, Impressive in landing both starts on the AW early last winter. However, proved a disappointment on handicap debut/return at Newbury (7f) 19 days ago, refusing to settle.
6th
6th (3) Saga (1.75/1 +7%)
Saga

1.75/1(+7%)
(3) Saga 1.75/1, Promising sort who landed a maiden over C&D on final 2-y-o start and progressed further when second of 4 in a conditions event at Kempton (1m) 18 days ago. Into handicaps now and will go on improving.
7th
7th (2) Claim The Crown (28/1 -56%)
Claim The Crown

28/1(-56%)

8th
8th (4) American Star (50/1 -127%)
American Star

50/1(-127%)

Sterling Knight

10/1(+29%)
(9) Sterling Knight 10/1, Kept busy as a juvenile, signing off with 11-runner handicap win at Wolverhampton in December. Took form to a new level when successful at Windsor 11 days ago and he's a big player under a penalty.
2
2nd (18) Devaste (28/1 -27%)
Devaste

28/1(-27%)
(18) Devaste 28/1, Failed to build on Brighton novice win in July for David Elsworth. Sound reappearance third at Windsor last month and a well-run race kept to 6f will suit.
3
3rd (14) Al Ameen (9/1 -6%)
Al Ameen

9/1(-6%)
(14) Al Ameen 9/1, Off the mark at the second attempt in 5f maiden at Southwell in January. Runner-up next 2 starts and easy to excuse last month's effort at Lingfield from a poor draw. Turf debut with cheekpieces on.
4
4th (12) Latin Lover (10/1 +38%)
Latin Lover

10/1(+38%)
(12) Latin Lover 10/1, Beverley novice winner a year ago and ran right up to form when third on last month's reappearance at Yarmouth. No surprise were he to step forward from that and be a factor here.
5th
5th (5) Kit Gabriel (25/1 -14%)
Kit Gabriel

25/1(-14%)
(5) Kit Gabriel 25/1, Opened his account at the fourth time of asking in nursery at Pontefract (6f) in September. No impression upped to listed company in the mud at Doncaster and his mark looks high on reappearance.
6th
6th (16) Justcallmepete (2.5/1 +17%)
Justcallmepete

2.5/1(+17%)
(16) Justcallmepete 2.5/1, Confirmed the promise of his Kempton run when a ready winner at Southwell in March. Improved again when second to Sterling Knight at WIndsor 11 days ago despite not being ideally placed.
7th
7th (13) Lil Guff (28/1 -12%)
Lil Guff

28/1(-12%)
(13) Lil Guff 28/1, Kept busy as a juvenile, doubling tally in a 6f novice at Goodwood in October. Just a fair effort on last month's reappearance and doesn't possess much scope from this mark.
8th
8th (8) Foxy Rascal (22/1 -22%)
Foxy Rascal

22/1(-22%)
(8) Foxy Rascal 22/1, Maiden winner at Newcastle in September and progressive form this year, second at Yarmouth 17 days ago. Nudged up 2 lb and cheekpieces reached for.
9th
9th (1) Amazonian Dream (28/1 +0%)
Amazonian Dream

28/1(+0%)
(1) Amazonian Dream 28/1, Ended last summer on the up with a brace of 5f handicap wins. Off 8 months and not on his game on reappearance but likely to strip fitter with that under his belt.
10th
10th (4) Watchya (7/1 +0%)
Watchya

7/1(+0%)
(4) Watchya 7/1, Went with plenty of zest back sprinting when landing 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton last month. Up 8 lb in a deeper race back on turf but he's unexposed.
11th
11th (19) Mega Marvel (33/1 -32%)
Mega Marvel

33/1(-32%)
(19) Mega Marvel 33/1, Off the mark in 6f Newcastle novice in November. Still looked rough around the edges when fourth on reappearance and there may be more to come.
12th
12th (6) Secret Strength (28/1 -12%)
Secret Strength

28/1(-12%)
(6) Secret Strength 28/1, First run since leaving Richard Hannon when fourth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 25/1) left poorly placed. All the better for that run when second at Kempton but he's more exposed than some.
13th
13th (10) Sisters In The Sky (12/1 +0%)
Sisters In The Sky

12/1(+0%)
(10) Sisters In The Sky 12/1, Progressed again when making third start a winning one at Goodwood (6f) in July. Progress has stalled since, not really applying himself on last month's reappearance/AW debut.
14th
14th (11) Minnamoolka (66/1 -65%)
Minnamoolka

66/1(-65%)
(11) Minnamoolka 66/1, Won maiden at Bath and novice at Salisbury in August. Flying too high in Group 3 at latter track and also didn't show much on nursery debut at Doncaster in September. Off since.
15th
15th (15) Kape Moss (33/1 -106%)
Kape Moss

33/1(-106%)
(15) Kape Moss 33/1, Sen to good effect from the front in a slowly-run race when successful at Newcastle in December. Pulled hard and didn't look an easy ride at Wolverhampton on last month's return.
16th
16th (3) Shanko (12/1 -33%)
Shanko

12/1(-33%)
(3) Shanko 12/1, Won first 2 starts on the AW at Chelmsford before excellent second in 6f Kempton handicap in February. Not in the same form switched to turf last month, though he was tightened up near the line.
17th
17th (7) Zameka (7/1 -8%)
Zameka

7/1(-8%)
(7) Zameka 7/1, Landed the odds without too much difficulty at Wolverhampton in January and better form when third on handicap debut at Lingfield. Visor on and he looks well treated from the same mark if as effective on turf.
18th
18th (17) Kindness (22/1 +12%)
Kindness

22/1(+12%)
(17) Kindness 22/1, Continued theme of big race-by-race progress when landing 9-runner novice at York in September despite being slowly away. Flopped in the mud in a nursery a month later and off since.

Many A Star

2/1(+50%)
(8) Many A Star 2/1, 5-y-o who went winless in handful of starts last year but bright start for new yard, edged out late in a tight finish when third at Goodwood (6f) 7 days ago. Likely he'll get his own way on the front end.
2
2nd (5) Spanish Star (25/1 -79%)
Spanish Star

25/1(-79%)
(5) Spanish Star 25/1, Dual winner last year who has a good record fresh but never figured on his respective return at Chelmsford (7f) in April, always behind. Still, this 7-y-o wouldn't be the type to stay down for long.
3
3rd (3) Silver Samurai (8/1 +0%)
Silver Samurai

8/1(+0%)
(3) Silver Samurai 8/1, Posted a smooth success at Doncaster (7f) last June and consistency essentially hard to knock in defeat thereafter. Good second on return at Kempton (7f) and best not judged too harshly on his subsequent Haydock run. Each-way player with hood refitted.
4
4th (2) Prontissimo (5/1 -11%)
Prontissimo

5/1(-11%)
(2) Prontissimo 5/1, Found further progress when doubling career tally in a C&D handicap back in September. Excuses in Group 3 company final start but proved too free on return at Chelmsford (6f) 2 weeks ago. Still, far too soon to be writing him off.
5th
5th (6) Kimifive (22/1 -57%)
Kimifive

22/1(-57%)
(6) Kimifive 22/1, Regular in competitive, big-field handicaps over the last few years and returns to action lurking on a potentially handy mark. However, he ended last term below his best and have to go back to 2019 for last success.
6th
6th (7) Akkeringa (5/1 +17%)
Akkeringa

5/1(+17%)
(7) Akkeringa 5/1, Progressive when landing back-to-back fast ground 6f handicaps 11 months ago and confirmed his mark is still a workable one when close third at Doncaster (6f) in August, caught further back than ideal. Below best final start but not dismissed on return.
7th
7th (1) Mine's A Double (3/1 -50%)
Mine's A Double

3/1(-50%)
(1) Mine's A Double 3/1, Mukhadram colt who went unbeaten as a 3-y-o, completing hat-trick in a 5f handicap here back in September. Lost unbeaten record but entitled to come on for Newbury return in April and he's of interest.
8th
8th (4) Corvair (33/1 -83%)
Corvair

33/1(-83%)
(4) Corvair 33/1, Three-time AW winner earlier in career but has essentially become hard to win with and his efforts on AW earlier this year where disconcerting. Others rate more solid back from a break.

Atrium

3.5/1(+56%)
(2) Atrium 3.5/1, Course winner last summer who signed off his 2-y-o campaign when winning a nursery at Newcastle. Wasn't seen to best effect back on turf after 5 months off at Musselburgh 20 days ago and will need to brush up on his slow starts before he's of interest.

2nd (8) Paradias (7.5/1 +17%)
Paradias

7.5/1(+17%)
(8) Paradias 7.5/1, £100,000 buy at the breeze-ups and he showed plenty when runner-up at Sandown on debut. Caught the eye with how long he went on the bridle at Haydock on his final 2-y-o start and he could have a say on handicap debut/return.

3rd (10) Sip And Smile (11/1 -22%)
Sip And Smile

11/1(-22%)
(10) Sip And Smile 11/1, Won first couple of starts at Newcastle earlier this year but his career in handicaps has been rather disappointing, fourth of 6 at Doncaster (turf debut) a fortnight ago. Hopes pinned on this step up in trip sparking the necessary improvement.
4
4th (1) Blueberry Hill (12/1 -118%)
Blueberry Hill

12/1(-118%)
(1) Blueberry Hill 12/1, Stepped up on reappearance when winning 9-runner minor event at Epsom 17 days ago, suited by increase in trip (also had the benefit of a recent run over his main rivals). Seems a straightforward type and should have more to offer now moving into handicaps.
5th
5th (14) Copperknob (25/1 +38%)
Copperknob

25/1(+38%)
(14) Copperknob 25/1, Caught the eye on handicap debut at Kempton but struggled on both subsequent outings, never looking comfortable on his final 2-y-o start at Nottingham (went with little fluency). Makes return after 6 months off but others appeal more.
6th
6th (6) Taratari (8/1 +20%)
Taratari

8/1(+20%)
(6) Taratari 8/1, Similar form on all 3 starts so far, latest when runner-up at Salisbury 16 days ago. That effort offered plenty of encouragement now upped in trip moving into handicaps.
7th
7th (7) Francesi (16/1 -33%)
Francesi

16/1(-33%)
(7) Francesi 16/1, Plenty of promise as a 2-y-o and probably didn't need to improve to get off the mark when scoring at Lingfield last month, getting first run but winning cosily. Another with potential now moving into handicaps.
8th
8th (5) Duelist (5.5/1 +45%)
Duelist

5.5/1(+45%)
(5) Duelist 5.5/1, Dubawi colt who was strong in the betting (on the back of a wind op) but no more than reproduced the form of his second run in the autumn when fifth on reappearance at Newbury 20 days ago. Makes handicap debut here and yard won this corresponding event last year.
9th
9th (9) Havana Goldrush (18/1 +36%)
Havana Goldrush

18/1(+36%)
(9) Havana Goldrush 18/1, Doubled his career tally when scoring at Wolverhampton in February and seemed to take a step forward when a close fourth (150/1) at Kempton 9 weeks ago, probably flattered by proximity to principals. Turf debut today and will need to find more.
10th
10th (11) Meleagant (28/1 -75%)
Meleagant

28/1(-75%)
(11) Meleagant 28/1, Some promise 3 minor events in recent weeks, 5½ lengths fifth of 9 to Blueberry Hill at Epsom 17 days ago. Open to improvement now moving into handicaps so worth a market check.
11th
11th (13) Never In Fourth (33/1 +18%)
Never In Fourth

33/1(+18%)
(13) Never In Fourth 33/1, Steadily progressive sort who got off the mark in a 7f Wolverhampton nursery in November and followed up over extended mile at that venue later that month. Not up to the task at Newmarket last month and he may struggle once again here.
12th
12th (4) Court Of Session (9/1 -125%)
Court Of Session

9/1(-125%)
(4) Court Of Session 9/1, Gelded and much improved on return when making a winning handicap debut at Chelmsford last month. Maintained his unbeaten record in handicaps a fortnight later at Lingfield and with improvement on the cards, he's expected to make a bold bid for the hat-trick under a penalty.
13th
13th (3) Khathak (6/1 +14%)
Khathak

6/1(+14%)
(3) Khathak 6/1, Brother to high-class winner Ribchester who made a winning start on the back of a breathing operation at Kempton in December. Not quite kicked on from that on a couple of subsequent outings but may well do better sent handicapping. Interesting.

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.
