1st (5)  (12/1 +25%)Desert Quest |
12/1(+25%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Desert Quest 12/1, 33/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (10f, good to firm) 15 days ago. Significantly back up in trip and others make more appeal. | |||
2nd (4)  (2.25/1 +32%)Well Planted |
2.25/1(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Well Planted 2.25/1, Ninth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, good, 10/1) 2 days ago. Below par on latest start in this sphere, but he's down to a dangerous mark and couldn't rule out. | |||
3rd (3)  (1.75/1 +22%)Graces Quest |
1.75/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Graces Quest 1.75/1, Latest win at Carlisle in June. Creditable second of 5 in handicap (2/1) at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 4 days ago, no match for winner. Likely to be in the mix once again. | |||
4th (1)  (9/1 -80%)Tendentious |
9/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tendentious 9/1, Winner at Doncaster in April. Fifteenth of 17 in handicap (20/1) at York (16.2f, good) 57 days ago, eased down. Bit to prove on the back of that poor effort. | |||
5th (6)  (6/1 +40%)Starlyte |
6/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Starlyte 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Fair winner at 20f over hurdles. Fourth of 9 in maiden at Hamilton (9.2f, good to firm, 33/1) 25 days ago. Significantly up in trip for this handicap debut. | |||
6th (2)  (7/1 -133%)Witham River |
7/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Witham River 7/1, 14/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at York (16.2f, good to firm) 9 days ago. This drop back in trip looks a good move and he's greatly respected off a career-low mark. |

1st (1)  (3/1 +14%)Feel The Need |
3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Feel The Need 3/1, Promising sort. 18/1, fourth of 8 in minor event at this C&D (good) on debut 14 days ago, slowly away. Should have more to offer and he's one to consider. | |||
2nd (3)  (5.5/1 +50%)Perfect Play |
5.5/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Perfect Play 5.5/1, Once-raced colt. Ninth of 11 in minor event at York (6f, good to soft, 14/1) on debut 58 days ago. That effort needs improving upon, but he's in good hands and this stiffer test should help judged on his pedigree. | |||
3rd (4)  (0.91/1 -107%)Pjanoo |
0.91/1(-107%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Pjanoo 0.91/1, Promising individual. 9/1, second of 11 in maiden at Newbury (6.5f, good to soft) on debut 48 days ago. That form has been boosted since and good chance he'll go one better here. | |||
4th (5)  (8/1 +27%)Rory The Cat |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rory The Cat 8/1, Once-raced colt. 17/2, fourth of 8 in minor event at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) on debut 16 days ago. Open to progress. | |||
5th (2)  (20/1 +29%)Masterpainter |
20/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Masterpainter 20/1, Once-raced gelding. Eighth of 11 in minor event at Carlisle (5.8f, good to firm, 10/1) on debut 26 days ago. Up in trip and big step forward needed. | |||
6th (6)  (40/1 +39%)Penelope's Sister |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Penelope's Sister 40/1, Foaled February 16. War Command filly. Yard rarely strikes with newcomers and probably best watched this time. |

2.75/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Monsieur Kodi 2.75/1, Winner at Carlisle in June. 10/1, creditable second of 12 in handicap over C&D (good to firm) 7 days ago. Another to consider. | |||
2nd (5)  (12/1 -50%)Caleta Sunrise |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Caleta Sunrise 12/1, Fair fourth on 7f Carlisle reappearance for new stable but down the field at Doncaster (7f again) since. Returns to sprinting in a bid to get back on track. | |||
3rd (1)  (7.5/1 -25%)Kilconquhar |
7.5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Kilconquhar 7.5/1, 11/4, good second of 9 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 25 days ago, keeping on well. Enters calculations for last year's winning stable. | |||
4th (3)  (4/1 +11%)Classy Al |
4/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Classy Al 4/1, Second C&D win of year when coming from last to first to see off 7 rivals a fortnight ago. 3 lb rise is unlikely to prevent him going close if things drop right again. | |||
5th (2)  (8/1 +0%)Rory |
8/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Rory 8/1, Course winner. Latest win at Hamilton in May. Respectable seventh of 12 over C&D (good to firm, 4/1) 7 days ago, never nearer. Cheekpieces back on. Looks competitive on form. | |||
6th (9)  (3.5/1 +46%)Dick Datchery |
3.5/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Dick Datchery 3.5/1, Three-time C&D winner, the latest a fortnight ago in refitted blinkers (retained). Ought to remain very competitive after a 5 lb rise. | |||
7th (7)  (10/1 -18%)Min Till |
10/1(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Min Till 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 11 in novice at Wetherby (7f, good, 28/1) 41 days ago. Appeals as a likely improver in handicaps. One to monitor in the betting. | |||
8th (8)  (28/1 +30%)Nodsasgoodasawink |
28/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Nodsasgoodasawink 28/1, Second on C&D reappearance in April but comfortably held in 4 outings since. | |||
9th (6)  (11/1 +21%)Cotai Class |
11/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Cotai Class 11/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap (7/1) at Carlisle (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago, keeping on without seriously threatening. Blinkers on first time. | |||
10th (11)  (33/1 -175%)Burtonlodge Beauty |
33/1(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Burtonlodge Beauty 33/1, 25/1, first run since leaving Mick Channon when third of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Fairly handicapped if she can build on that. | |||
11th (10)  (100/1 -100%)Hollis Brown |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Hollis Brown 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seemed to show first sign of ability when last of 3 in maiden (80/1) at Musselburgh (7f, good) in April (final start for Alan Berry). Switches to handicaps for new yard after a 12-week break. | |||
12th (12)  (100/1 -100%)Next Second |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Next Second 100/1, Eyeshields on first time, sixth of 9 in handicap at Bath (5f, good to firm, 40/1) 12 days ago. Others have achieved more. |

3.33/1(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Biplane 3.33/1, Creditable second of 12 in handicap at Newcastle (1m, 22/1) 25 days ago. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces. Claims if in the same form. | |||
2nd (3)  (3/1 +40%)Far From A Ruby |
3/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Far From A Ruby 3/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Below form when seventh of 9 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good, 6/1) 12 days ago but enters calculations on her 2 placed efforts over 1m here at the start of the summer. | |||
3rd (4)  (8/1 -60%)Monhammer |
8/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Monhammer 8/1, Cheekpieces on first time, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (7f, good to firm, 6/1) 11 days ago. Should be in the shake-up again. | |||
4th (6)  (14/1 -40%)One Last Hug |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) One Last Hug 14/1, Just 1 win from 34 starts but it did come here. Below par on AW when last seen in November. Percentage call is to look elsewhere on return. | |||
5th (2)  (4.5/1 +55%)Spice Store |
4.5/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Spice Store 4.5/1, Eighth of 10 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 12 days ago. First-time cheekpieces will need to help spark a revival. | |||
6th (7)  (5.5/1 -83%)Audit |
5.5/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Audit 5.5/1, 9/1, good third of 7 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good) 12 days ago. Merits consideration. | |||

6.5/1(-63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Thunderhill 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, very good fourth of 10 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good) 31 days ago. Less exposed than a lot of these. Respected. | |||

3.33/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Snash 3.33/1, Latest win at Thirsk in June. Respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (11/1) at York (7f, good to firm) 10 days ago, left poorly placed. Place possibilities. | |||
2nd (1)  (4.5/1 +36%)Aberama Gold |
4.5/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aberama Gold 4.5/1, C&D winner. Visored for 1st time, good head second of 8 to Quest For Fun in handicap at this C&D (good, 6/1) 14 days ago. Each-way claims. | |||
3rd (3)  (8.5/1 +39%)Bernardo O'Reilly |
8.5/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bernardo O'Reilly 8.5/1, Latest win at Doncaster in March. 5/2, fourth of 6 in handicap at Nottingham (6.1f, good) 39 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more. | |||
4th (2)  (10/1 +44%)Streamline |
10/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Streamline 10/1, Good fifth of 10 in handicap (40/1) at Hamilton (6f, good to firm) 3 days ago, slowly away. Others make more appeal from a win point of view. | |||
5th (6)  (6/1 +40%)Summer Sands |
6/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Summer Sands 6/1, 14/1, creditable 2 lengths fourth of 8 to Quest For Fun in handicap at this C&D (good) 14 days ago. Hard to envisage him reversing placings with the winner. | |||
6th (9)  (4/1 +20%)Call Me Ginger |
4/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Call Me Ginger 4/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in June. 4/1, creditable length third of 8 to Quest For Fun in handicap at this C&D (good) 14 days ago, conceding first run. Shortlist material. | |||
7th (7)  (14/1 -27%)Toussarok |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Toussarok 14/1, 13/2, career best when winning 6-runner handicap at Epsom (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago, always holding on. 2 lb rise fair, but this looks more demanding. | |||
8th (10)  (7.5/1 -7%)Jordan Electrics |
7.5/1(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Jordan Electrics 7.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Hamilton in June. Good second of 20 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm, 17/2) 9 days ago, better placed than most. Clearly in good nick, but may find one or two too good all the same. | |||
9th (11)  (33/1 +18%)Never Dark |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Never Dark 33/1, Visored for 1st time, last of 10 in handicap at this course (5f, good to soft, 20/1) 30 days ago. Best to look elsewhere. | |||
10th (12)  (50/1 +24%)Pockley |
50/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Pockley 50/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventeenth of 20 in handicap at York (6f, good to firm, 80/1) 9 days ago. Readily passed over. |

1st (1)  (2.25/1 +18%)Brazen Bolt |
2.25/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Brazen Bolt 2.25/1, Won 3 of his 6 starts last season and resumed winning ways at Newmarket (6f) in May. Solid runner-up efforts next 2 starts and shaped much better than bare result when eleventh of 20 in handicap at York (6f) 9 days ago, undone by track position. Remains one to be interested in. | |||
2nd (4)  (16/1 -33%)Merricourt |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Merricourt 16/1, Defied market weakness to gain third course success over C&D in April, seen to good effect from the front but battling well and matched that level when second to a thriving sort at Carlisle in May. Below best at Musselburgh since and mark demands that bit more now. | |||
3rd (2)  (3.5/1 +42%)Golden Apollo |
3.5/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Golden Apollo 3.5/1, Isn't easy to predict but capitalised on marked drop in grade to end losing run stretching back to the 2019 Ayr Silver Cup at Haydock (7f) 17 days ago. Another drawn on wrong part of track at York subsequently and not out of things from this sort of mark. | |||
4th (6)  (6.5/1 +19%)Global Humor |
6.5/1(+19%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Global Humor 6.5/1, Unreliable type (refused to race in June) but does at least arrive having run best race of the present campaign when sixth of 12 in handicap at this course (6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. However, task is to build on that now. | |||
5th (5)  (8/1 -45%)Iris Dancer |
8/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Iris Dancer 8/1, Latest win at Hamilton (6f) in May. 12/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, good to firm) 11 days ago, keeping on final 50 yds. Worth another crack at this trip on balance. | |||
6th (3)  (4/1 +11%)Diamondonthehill |
4/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Diamondonthehill 4/1, Solid return when third over 1m here in April and he dispelled a couple of lesser efforts equipped with a hood (retained here) when second at Thirsk (7f) 19 days ago, headed final 50 yds. Needs to back that up now from 1 lb higher mark. | |||
7th (7)  (8.5/1 -21%)Subjective Value |
8.5/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Subjective Value 8.5/1, Dual winner at Wolverhampton (8.6f) earlier this year. 40/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 9 in handicap at this course (8f, good to firm) 15 days ago, off bridle before most and beaten final 1f. Must bounce back. |

1st (1)  (10/1 -82%)Star Shield |
10/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Star Shield 10/1, Dual AW scorer during the winter who has been operating below best on turf in recent months, albeit probably not well served by switch to positive tactics when sixth of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good) 21 days ago. Mark is creeping down at least. | |||
2nd (5)  (1.88/1 +0%)Yaaser |
1.88/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Yaaser 1.88/1, New yard found the key to him this season, landing back-to-back 7f handicaps here/Musselburgh in May and hitting the frame from his inflated mark all 3 starts since. Assessor applies a little more pressure but foolish to rule out in present groove. | |||
3rd (3)  (2.5/1 +9%)Under Fox |
2.5/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Under Fox 2.5/1, Improved for application of blinkers last term, adding second success to his tally at Hamilton (8.3f) in September. Enough in his 3 starts this season to suggest he's in good heart and he rates a big player here. | |||
4th (4)  (10/1 -33%)Mi Capricho |
10/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mi Capricho 10/1, C&D winner. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Musselburgh (1m) 21 days ago, weakening when bumped final 1f. Remains 4 lb above last winning mark and efforts more miss than hit so far this term. | |||
5th (2)  (2.75/1 +31%)Diamond Haze |
2.75/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Diamond Haze 2.75/1, Both career victories gained at Thirsk, the latest over 1m in May and he again ran well when runner-up at Musselburgh (1m) on penultimate start. Below form fourth of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (1m) 13 days ago, possibly not helped by racing close to strong gallop. |

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.
