1st (4)  (0.3/1 +47%)Jackpot de Choisel |
0.3/1(+47%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jackpot de Choisel 0.3/1, Successful on his sole Flat outing in France last summer (sold for €200,000) and shaped with plenty of encouragement on hurdling debut when third of 14 at Fairyhouse 6 weeks ago. Has been found an excellent opportunity. | |||
2nd (2)  (3.5/1 -17%)Start In Front |
3.5/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Start In Front 3.5/1, Fairly useful Flat winner in France and similar form over hurdles there. Made a successful start for new connections after 8 months off at Wetherby (16f, heavy) but proved a let down at Huntingdon since. | |||
3rd (3)  (33/1 -65%)Duyfken |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Duyfken 33/1, Fair form on the Flat in France at up to 1½m for Carlos Laffon-Parias. Bought for €28,000 in July. Remote fourth of 8 in juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh (15.6f, soft) on NH debut 31 days ago. | |||
4th (1)  (10/1 -67%)Jipekaa Machin |
10/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Jipekaa Machin 10/1, Placed both starts in juvenile hurdles in France for Hugo Merienne (changed hands for 35,000 gns) before making winning start on UK/stable debut in 7-runner juvenile at Sedgefield. Disappointed at Wetherby since, however. Tongue strap on 1st time. | |||
|PU| (5)  (80/1 -142%)Uberrima Fides |
80/1(-142%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Uberrima Fides 80/1, Modest on Flat and well held both starts over hurdles. Headgear on. | |||
|PU| (6)  (300/1 -200%)Ancora |
300/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ancora 300/1, Showed nothing both starts in juvenile hurdles at Musselburgh. |

1st (4)  (11/1 +45%)Lake Takapuna |
11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lake Takapuna 11/1, Unreliable type. Unsuited by emphasis on speed when fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Musselburgh (15.8f) 29 days ago. Still needs a couple of these to falter though. | |||
2nd (5)  (9/1 +18%)Travail D'orfevre |
9/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Travail D'orfevre 9/1, Opened his hurdles account at Kelso last April. Posted good third at same course on chase debut in October but disappointing since and needs subsequent wind op to spark a resurgence. | |||
3rd (8)  (8/1 +20%)Duty Calls |
8/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Duty Calls 8/1, Dual point scorer and also a winner over hurdles but he's yet to convince over fences, third of 5 to Netywell in handicap chase over C&D 23 days ago. Needs to build on it now. | |||
4th (1)  (3/1 +14%)Netywell |
3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Netywell 3/1, Promising novice hurdler last season who got right back on track over fences with a change of tactics whem making all in 5-runner handicap over C&D 23 days ago. Not taken lightly despite 7 lb rise. | |||
5th (9)  (10/1 +38%)Ardera Cross |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Ardera Cross 10/1, 5-time C&D winner but he was pulled up in handicap chase over C&D 23 days ago. Needs to get back on track. | |||
6th (7)  (28/1 +15%)Ingleby Mackenzie |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Ingleby Mackenzie 28/1, Fair handicap chaser in Ireland for Henry de Bromhead but well held this year, including for new yard. Back over fences with something to prove. | |||
7th (6)  (3.33/1 -77%)Rocco Storm |
3.33/1(-77%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Rocco Storm 3.33/1, Hasn't looked back since undergoing breathing surgery and bagged his third win this season in 10-runner handicap chase over C&D 23 days ago. Well on top at the finish there so he's expected to be bang there again despite taking a 7 lb rise. | |||
8th (2)  (3.5/1 +22%)Ritson |
3.5/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ritson 3.5/1, Fair hurdler who readily surpassed previous exploits in this sphere when running out an easy winner of 2m Newcastle handicap on Boxing Day. Handicapper has hiked him up 8 lb but he remains low-mileage in this sphere. Solid claims. | |||
|PU| (10)  (50/1 -52%)Hollybank King |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Hollybank King 50/1, Fair winning Irish chaser at his best but he's yet to fully fire this term, ninth of 10 to Rocco Storm in handicap over C&D 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with something to prove. |

1st (1)  (7.5/1 -15%)Thomas Darby |
7.5/1(-15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Thomas Darby 7.5/1, Unreliable type who won the Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury in 2021/22 but was a well-beaten third in that corresponding race in November. Again below form in Cheltenham handicap on New Year's Day but showed plenty of aptitude for this job early in career. | |||
2nd (2)  (0.83/1 +0%)Gold Cup Bailly |
0.83/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Gold Cup Bailly 0.83/1, Lightly-raced 7-y-o who boasts a 100% record over fences, again impressing with his jumping as he landed the hat-trick over C&D 30 days ago. Only 4 lb higher now and he remains one to keep firmly on side. | |||
3rd (4)  (5.5/1 -38%)Gaillimh A Stor |
5.5/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gaillimh A Stor 5.5/1, Novice hurdle winner who despite jumping tentatively/going with little fluency he probably would have won but for falling 3 out on chase bow here 30 days ago (had picked up strongly). However, not easy to know how he'll fare on balance of that display. | |||
4th (3)  (3/1 +25%)Famous Bridge |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Famous Bridge 3/1, Dual hurdles winner (at upto 21f) who is very much a chaser on looks and there was some encouragement to glean from last month's return/chase debut third at Doncaster (20.5f), keeping on under hands-and-heels. Better to come. |

1st (6)  (5.5/1 +61%)On We Go |
5.5/1(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) On We Go 5.5/1, Winner of 3 of her first 4 starts since joining Gillian Boanas, latest at Cartmel in June. Shaped as if needing the run at Hexham (20.1f) in November and having experienced a first fall of her career at Newcastle on Boxing Day, this could well be a confidence-restoring mission. | |||
2nd (8)  (5/1 +69%)Jessiemac |
5/1(+69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Jessiemac 5/1, Thorough stayer who needed every yard to score at Catterick a year ago. Form has been rather up-and-down since (poor in 3 starts upon return) and failed a to land a blow in that corresponding contest just under 3 weeks ago. Mark continues to slide. | |||
3rd (7)  (3.33/1 +17%)Lissen To The Lady |
3.33/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Lissen To The Lady 3.33/1, Enhanced her fine Kelso record when landing third success last spring. Caught the eye under a considerate ride on return and did enough to confirm her return to form when third at same track (22.7f, heavy) 34 days ago, noted running on late. One to note back against her own sex. | |||
4th (1)  (14/1 -27%)Wild Polly |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wild Polly 14/1, Fairly promising novice a few seasons back (course winner in October 2020) and probably needed the run after nearly 2 years off on recent handicap debut at Kelso. Significantly back up in trip and this should reveal what ability remains. | |||
5th (3)  (5/1 +29%)Lady Tremaine |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lady Tremaine 5/1, Won handicap at Bangor and mares novice at Carlisle last season, but ended the campaign on a low note at Market Rasen at February. Creditable return when fifth of 8 at Newcastle (20.3f) on Boxing Day but likely more needed upped in trip. | |||
6th (5)  (7.5/1 +70%)Gipsy Lee Rose |
7.5/1(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Gipsy Lee Rose 7.5/1, Finally off the mark over fences at Hexham in April. Mostly respectable efforts since but ran one of her lesser races at Newcastle last month. This a rare start over hurdles and worth a market check as a result. | |||
7th (2)  (4.5/1 +18%)El Poppochapo |
4.5/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) El Poppochapo 4.5/1, Down the field in handful of bumper/maiden hurdle starts but first-time cheekpieces seemingly the catalyst for her getting off the mark in a course novice (20.4f, heavy) just over 3 weeks ago. Makes handicap debut and could kick on now up and running. | |||
|PU| (9)  (25/1 +0%)Gypsey's Secret |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Gypsey's Secret 25/1, Barely any sign of ability across 4 starts in early-2021 but more like it after 19 months off when third in novice hurdle at Kelso (22.7f, heavy) just under 5 weeks ago. Needs to build on that now heading into handicaps. |

1st (8)  (3.5/1 +42%)Readysteadybeau |
3.5/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Readysteadybeau 3.5/1, Fair winner at 24f over hurdles but hasn't kicked on from a promising chase debut here, no sharper for the fitting of cheekpieces when fifth of 9 in handicap chase at Kelso (22.3f, heavy, 10/1) 34 days ago. Others preferred. | |||
2nd (4)  (6/1 -20%)Dubai Days |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dubai Days 6/1, Won trio of small-field handicap chases last term and ran his best race of this season when third of 9 at Newcastle (20.1f, soft) 25 days ago, travelling smoothly for long way. Could be building up to something and is respected. | |||
3rd (7)  (6.5/1 +28%)High Moon |
6.5/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) High Moon 6.5/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner has at least matched that form when placed both starts over fences so far, latterly finishing 3¼ lengths behind Donna's Double at this course (20.5f, heavy, 7/1) 30 days ago. Probably needs to find some improvement to score here. | |||
4th (5)  (5/1 -43%)Grand Voyage |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Grand Voyage 5/1, Progressive, dual winner over hurdles who improved to make second chase start a winning one at Ayr (20.5f) in November. Good efforts in defeat both starts since (stamina stretched at Kelso) and he's expected to be bang there. | |||
5th (1)  (8/1 -23%)Uncle Alastair |
8/1(-23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Uncle Alastair 8/1, Bumper/multiple hurdles winner who, after 7 months off, finished runner-up for the fourth time in 6 starts over fences at Carlisle (24.5f) in November. Headgear goes on and he can give another good account. | |||
6th (6)  (3/1 +10%)Donna's Double |
3/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Donna's Double 3/1, Confirmed promise of chase debut when the getting better of High Moon to land a 6-runner handicap here (20.5f, heavy, 10/3) 30 days ago. This race looks to contain more depth but he's open to progress. | |||
|PU| (3)  (12/1 -33%)Calipso Collonges |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Calipso Collonges 12/1, Chased home well-treated pair in veterans' event on return and was far from discredited when fifth of 15 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (27.6f, good to soft) 37 days ago. Consistent sort holds frame claims again. | |||
|PU| (2)  (18/1 +28%)Clan Legend |
18/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Clan Legend 18/1, Likeable veteran who made a creditable reappearance when runner-up at Ayr (24.1f) in November. Hasn't been competitive on either outing since, though, and he's probably vulnerable to less-exposed sorts again. |

1st (6)  (9/1 +25%)Shir I Dont Know |
9/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Shir I Dont Know 9/1, Modest in bumpers and showed more than previously over hurdles when fourth in a C&D maiden in December. Failed to repeat that effort at Catterick though, so bounce back called for on handicap debut. | |||
2nd (9)  (22/1 -57%)Kinnegad Lad |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Kinnegad Lad 22/1, Modest maiden hurdler in Ireland who wasn't disgraced when 13¼ lengths fourth of 8 to Fia Fuinidh in C&D handicap (heavy) 23 days ago, plugging on straight. Cheekpieces back on. | |||
3rd (8)  (16/1 -14%)Eloi Du Puy |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Eloi Du Puy 16/1, Fair form on the first of 2 starts in bumpers and offered something to work on sent hurdling when third over C&D in October. Below that level twice since but may get back on track now handicapping. | |||
4th (5)  (12/1 +40%)Lunar Jet |
12/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lunar Jet 12/1, Useful at best on the Flat, though form went the wrong way last year. Faced a stiff task on first hurdles start since 2020 when fourth of 5 in a Doncaster novice in November. Now tried in hood making his handicap hurdle debut, but others still preferred. | |||
5th (1)  (2.5/1 -25%)Fia Fuinidh |
2.5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Fia Fuinidh 2.5/1, Placed on the second of 2 outings in Irish points and heading in the right direction over hurdles, opening his account in clear-cut and likeable fashion on handicap debut over C&D 23 days ago. Hiked up 10 lb but further progress can't be ruled out. | |||
6th (4)  (5/1 +17%)One Mill Harbour |
5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) One Mill Harbour 5/1, Improved on debut form when third of 11 in C&D maiden (heavy) 30 days ago, despite still looking in need of the experience. Sort to progress again now making a quick switch to handicaps. | |||
7th (2)  (2.75/1 +8%)Thistle Ask |
2.75/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Thistle Ask 2.75/1, Stepped up on his reappearance/stable debut when second of 14 in a C&D maiden (good to soft) 41 days ago. Opening mark looks workable on that evidence and he's strongly respected. | |||
8th (7)  (22/1 -38%)Enemy At The Gate |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Enemy At The Gate 22/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules who was considerately handled back from 14 months off when seventh of 11 in a C&D maiden (heavy) 30 days ago. Heads into handicap company now but drop in trip is a major concern. | |||
|PU| (3)  (7.5/1 +17%)Attention All |
7.5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Attention All 7.5/1, Showed a bit on his sole outing in bumpers but left that form behind to make a successful debut over hurdles at Newcastle (20f) in November. Not in the same form under a penalty at Sedgefield and now drops back in trip for handicap debut. |

2.25/1(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Booster Bob 2.25/1, €34,000 3-y-o, Malinas gelding. Dam (h70) lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles. Highly respected on debut. | |||
2nd (7)  (2.25/1 +36%)Isenay |
2.25/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Isenay 2.25/1, Friendless in betting but definite promise to glean from his fifth in 15-runner Punchestown bumper on NH debut back. Third over C&D on return and boasts place claims again. | |||
3rd (6)  (8/1 -167%)Idem |
8/1(-167%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Idem 8/1, Half-brother to 3 winners and showed plenty when runner-up at Aintree on debut. Shaped well over C&D next time but has been off 10 months since. | |||
4th (2)  (40/1 -186%)Both Barrels |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Both Barrels 40/1, Saddler's Rock gelding. Dam ran once in bumper. Showed a bit over C&D on debut but will need to improve if he's to make a serious impact. | |||
5th (10)  (3.5/1 -86%)Chalk That Down |
3.5/1(-86%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Chalk That Down 3.5/1, Half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser Born Survivor and fairly useful hurdler/chaser Theatre Flame. Showed plenty when second at Newcastle on debut and probably won't need to improve to go one better. | |||
6th (8)  (200/1 -100%)Sea Prince |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sea Prince 200/1, Didn't show much on debut in Ireland and makes little appeal back from 15 months off. | |||

18/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Greenhill Gardens 18/1, Westerner gelding. Dam (h88), winning pointer/placed over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful chaser (stays 3¼m) Up Helly Aa King. | |||
8th (5)  (18/1 +64%)Hombre De Guerra |
18/1(+64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Hombre De Guerra 18/1, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam (h113) 17f hurdle winner, also 11.5f winner on Flat. | |||

8/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Edgewell 8/1, €32,000 3-y-o, Well Chosen gelding. Closely related to bumper winner/fair chaser Bemo Two, and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser One Term. | |||

100/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Spanish Lariat 100/1, Golden Lariat gelding. Half-brother to modest chaser Miraculous Getaway and bumper winner Miracle Way. Dam lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles. | |||

100/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bray Dale 100/1, Failed to come up to expectations in bumpers for Nicky Richards and failed to beat a rival at Perth on debut for new stable. |

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.
