LTO Selection:

14:18 Beverley Maiden (Class 2) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well as there are many promising contenders with varying levels of experience and potential. Some horses of interest include 2.25/1 (4) SCOOPS AHOY, 3/1 (3) PONGA, 5/1 (13) PORT AND STARBURD, 7/1 (11) MATCH THAT, 8.5/1 (8) BAZBALL, 10/1 (7) UP THE JAZZ, 16/1 (2) NELLIE LEYLAX, and 25/1 (9) GRECIAN PRINCESS, as they all have positive points in their summary that suggest they could perform well. However, it is important to keep in mind that form and other factors can change quickly in horse racing, so any prediction should be taken with caution.

Scoops Ahoy shaped with promise on his debut, finishing second over C&D, and he appeals as a leading contender with improvement likely. However, the vote goes to PONGA, who also hit the woodwork on his racecourse bow and the third did that form no harm when narrowly denied here last month. Drawn well in stall five, he can score at the second time of asking. Match That is another to consider.

Unless the market vibes are notably strong surrounding the newcomers it may pay to focus on those with experience, with SCOOPS AHOY selected to go one place better than on last month's C&D debut. Ponga also filled the runner-up spot on his debut and is second choice ahead of the selection's stablemate Match That, who faded out of it on her heavy-ground debut but the fact she went off favourite suggests she's well regarded and she may last longer this time.

Preference is for SCOOPS AHOY, with Ponga and Match That feared most. The newcomers need a market check.

(6) Mistamac (3.5/1 +0%)
Mistamac

3.5/1(+0%)
(6) Mistamac 3.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden, best effort when length third of 8 to reopposing Herakles in novice at Newcastle (5f, 16/1) in December. Unexposed now handicapping after a break/gelding op.
Ties in closely with Herakles on last-time-out form; open to progress in handicaps.

1st (2) Miss Brazen (5/1 +38%)
Miss Brazen

5/1(+38%)
(2) Miss Brazen 5/1, Two wins for Karl Burke at 2. Shaped quite well when seventh of 13 in handicap at Thirsk (5f, heavy) on recent return for a new stable, not ideally placed away from where the main action unfolded. Considered.
Win record suggests she'll be more interesting when back on a faster surface.
2
2nd (7) Tasever (3.5/1 +65%)
Tasever

3.5/1(+65%)
(7) Tasever 3.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fourth of 9 in novice at Newcastle (6f, 8/1) on final start. Appeals as one who could go on to better things in handicaps but peak fitness has to be taken on trust after 5 months off.
May well improve for this drop in trip (half-brother to 5f winner for his connections).
3
3rd (1) Herakles (5.5/1 -100%)
Herakles

5.5/1(-100%)
(1) Herakles 5.5/1, Left debut behind when winning 5f Newcastle novice in December. This lightly-raced sort is a potential improver now switching to handicap company on his return to action.
Landed a gamble at Newcastle when last seen; open to further improvement.
4
4th (9) Parr Fire (7.5/1 +81%)
Parr Fire

7.5/1(+81%)
(9) Parr Fire 7.5/1, Hasn't progressed since debut win last spring. Ninth of 11 in handicap at Ripon (6f, soft, 40/1) 11 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.
0-8 and mostly below par since debut success.
5th
5th (8) Azucena (20/1 -186%)
Azucena

20/1(-186%)
(8) Azucena 20/1, Career best when winning 8-runner nursery at Newcastle (5f) on final 2-y-o start. Only nudged up 2 lb for that. Player if ready to roll after 6 months off.
Absent since narrow win on AW in October; now 2lb higher in a better race.
6th
6th (10) Silverlode (22/1 -38%)
Silverlode

22/1(-38%)
(10) Silverlode 22/1, Cheekpieces on first time, eighth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, heavy, 9/1) 19 days ago, badly hampered. Blinkers on first time.
Now 0-8 but has possibilities if taking well to first-time blinkers.
7th
7th (5) Strength 'n Honour (40/1 -300%)
Strength 'n Honour

40/1(-300%)
(5) Strength 'n Honour 40/1, Ended his time with Charlie Fellowes with a 5f Catterick nursery win last autumn. First-time cheekpieces worn on that occasion are retained now setting out for a new stable after 7 months off.
Took well to first-time cheekpieces at Catterick on final 2yo start for Charlie Fellowes.
8th
8th (4) Zuffolo (5/1 +29%)
Zuffolo

5/1(+29%)
(4) Zuffolo 5/1, Winner of novice at Thirsk last spring. Similar form when third in a C&D novice in September and filled the same position in a nursery on final start. Been off 6 months.
Consistent sort last term; thereabouts provided he returns in same form.
LTO Selection:

14:53 Beverley Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the information provided, 2.75/1 (1) HERAKLES and 3.5/1 (6) MISTAMAC seem like potential contenders as they both have shown they can perform well in previous races and are now switching to handicap company. 7/1 (4) ZUFFOLO also seems like a consistent runner but has been off for six months, so it is uncertain whether they will return in the same form. 7/1 (8) AZUCENA and 8/1 (2) MISS BRAZEN also have potential, but their form has been affected by factors such as time off and unsuitable ground. The remaining horses, 10/1 (7) TASEVER, 10/1 (5) STRENGTH 'N HONOUR, 16/1 (10) SILVERLODE, 22/1 (3) ABSOLUTELYFLAWLESS, and 40/1 (9) PARR FIRE, all have had mixed performances and would need to significantly improve or have other horses underperform to have a chance.

TASEVER showed a decent level of ability in four runs last season and he receives a tentative vote in what looks an open contest. The gelded son of Tasleet has untapped potential moving into handicaps and a return to turf should be in his favour. Herakles landed a gamble when winning at Newcastle in December and he's worthy of consideration, along with Absolutelyflawless, who could be well treated judged on her juvenile form.

MISS BRAZEN shaped quite well on her Thirsk reappearance and could have a fitness edge over some of these so she's the suggestion. Herakles and Mistamac, first and third in a Newcastle novice at the end of 2022, could have more to offer in handicaps this year and also make the shortlist.

This drop in trip looks likely to suit TASEVER. Herakles and Mistamac are set for an interesting rematch.

Ludo's Landing

5.5/1(+15%)
(1) Ludo's Landing 5.5/1, Looks more exposed than some of these after a 9-race juvenile campaign but this is the first time he's contested a Class 5 handicap (has been gelded).
Record is 1-9; somewhat exposed but drops in grade off a workable mark.

(5) Wurkin Ninetofive 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 10 in novice at Catterick (7f, heavy) on reappearance 19 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Opening mark demands improvement but he is unexposed.
Has shown steady improvement at novice level; not ruled out.
7th
7th (4) Reginald Charles (5.5/1 +39%)
Reginald Charles

5.5/1(+39%)
(4) Reginald Charles 5.5/1, Fair maiden. Ended 2022 with a respectable fourth in a 7f Haydock nursery. Gelded after. Hooded first time on his reappearance.
Made the frame in three of his five starts last term; hood applied; likely player.
8th

Tilt At Windmills

9/1(-29%)
(9) Tilt At Windmills 9/1, Third in novices at Newcastle (6f) and Wolverhampton (7f) last December. Well held at Southwell in Janury but retains potential now handicapping after a break.
May be capable of progress now handicapping on turf; interesting.
9th
9th (3) Vince Le Prince (8.5/1 +0%)
Vince Le Prince

8.5/1(+0%)
(3) Vince Le Prince 8.5/1, Successful debut in 7f Redcar novice last July but failed to build on it, finishing well held in nurseries on final 2 runs last year. Needs to get his career back on track after a break/gelding op.
Failed to progress from debut win but this drop in class may help.
LTO Selection:

15:28 Beverley Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, 1.38/1 (6) RIVER USK Reappearance and 9/1 (4) REGINALD CHARLES seem like the most likely horses to perform well. 1.38/1 (6) RIVER USK Reappearance has solid claims, showed improvement in his last handicap, and has leading claims from an unchanged mark. 9/1 (4) REGINALD CHARLES made the frame in three of his five starts last year and is likely to be a player with a hood applied for the first time on his reappearance.

RIVER USK made a pleasing return to action when finishing second at Catterick last month and, from an unchanged mark, Richard Fahey's charge is taken to go one better. Tilt At Windmills merits consideration on her first foray into handicap company, while Vince Le Prince, who was highly tried in some warm handicaps last season, is no forlorn hope down in class.

RIVER USK made a promising return to action at Catterick last month and can go one better off the same mark. Tilt At Windmills and Wurkin Ninetofive are possible improvers now moving into handicap company and head the dangers.

Solid contender RIVER USK (nap) is taken to open his account. Reginald Charles is second choice.

Best run came over C&D but on fast ground; no impact in either handicap run; risky.

(4) Eponina 3/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap (11/1) at Nottingham (8.3f, soft) 9 days ago. Down 2 lb and she's one of the more appealing candidates.
Veteran who lurks on a handy mark; needs to raise her game but that's quite possible.

(2) Glory And Gold 28/1, Winner at Catterick in October. Creditable third of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 14/1), running on. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving William Haggas and should be in the mix if ready to roll.
Soft-ground winner for W Haggas; sold 25,000gns in Nov; not dismissed back from a break.
LTO Selection:

16:03 Beverley Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty, but based on the summary, 4/1 (2) GLORY AND GOLD and 4/1 (4) EPONINA seem to be the more appealing candidates with recent creditable performances in their handicaps and potential for improvement. However, it is worth considering factors such as ground conditions and first-time headgear for 3/1 (5) STELLAR QUEEN, and potential for a positive effect from a return to C&D for 12/1 (7) JAZZ SAMBA.

EPONINA seems to have plenty going for her here with a decent draw in stall three and winning form over seven furlongs. She races off a mark of 65 here and has won off higher in the past, suggesting that the veteran can go well. Gentle Ellen and Glory And Gold represent stables in good form and may be the ones to follow the selection home.

EPONINA was a shade too free when fourth back on turf at Nottingham recently and, with this drop back in trip a good move, she gets the nod ahead of Stellar Queen, who is also likely to benefit from going back down in distance. Jazz Samba's best effort to date was when second here last season and she is best of the rest.

Most of the field have something to prove but a chance is taken on KARATAYKA handling the ground.

Mostly consistent on AW this year, winning twice; only 1-25 on turf.

On a long losing spell but has possibilities if taking well to first-time visor.

(13) Bobby Dalton 28/1, Last of 12 in handicap (40/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 22 days ago. Hopes pinned on the first-time hood sparking improvement.
First-time hood needs to have major effect.

Gaazooo

100/1(-25%)
(12) Gaazooo 100/1, Pulled up in juvenile hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft, 150/1) on NH debut 7 months ago. Poor effort latest start in this sphere, too, and it's best to look elsewhere.
Holds weak claims on form.
LTO Selection:

16:38 Beverley Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based on the limited information provided in the summary. However, 3.5/1 (5) MAKALU and 7/1 (1) SWINGING EDDIE are mentioned as horses to consider, while 14/1 (6) CLOTHERHOLME and 20/1 (3) ICE SHADOW are deemed less likely to win.

MAKALU was left with too much to do on his return at Thirsk when running on into second place. If he improves for his first start in eight months, the four-year-old could come home in front, although Reclaim Victory has some good all-weather form and she could be a danger to all. Distinction is potentially well handicapped and may not be too far away.

ONE HART has failed to fire the last twice but he's now 5 lb lower than for his Newcastle success in February and will have every chance if able to bounce back. Likely to come on for his reappearance spin at Thirsk, Spartakos is feared most with conditions in his favour. Ebury could also have a say in the finish if responding well to the first-time visor, while Makalu is also shortlisted.

On the back of a very encouraging reappearance, MAKALU could well go one better. Spartakos is second choice.

1st (5) On The River (1.25/1 +55%)
On The River

1.25/1(+55%)
(5) On The River 1.25/1, Changed hands for £8,000 in the autumn and proved better than ever returning from 7 months off when landing 16-runner Pontefract handicap (1m) 7 days ago, tackled 1f out and finding extra. Still fairly low-mileage at around 1m and he's a player again under a penalty.
Beat 15 rivals to make a winning stable debut last week; greatly respected despite penalty.

2nd (6) Ugo Gregory (3.5/1 +46%)
Ugo Gregory

3.5/1(+46%)
(6) Ugo Gregory 3.5/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 16/1, creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at Ripon (8f, soft) 11 days ago, pushed along 3f out and running on. Entitled to be sharper with that under his belt and this ease in class a plus.
3-7 at Beverley; on lowly mark and ran okay on recent return; one to consider.

3rd (2) Intervention (14/1 -100%)
Intervention

14/1(-100%)
(2) Intervention 14/1, Seven wins from 25 runs last year. 22/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 25 days ago, proving too free. Not out of things from this sort of mark for all his very best efforts for this yard have come at sprint trips.
Prolific for these connections but an extended 1m on slow ground might stretch him.

4th (3) Nasim (12/1 -200%)
Nasim

12/1(-200%)
(3) Nasim 12/1, Capitalised on ease in class when ending losing run at Chelmsford (1m) in February. Creditable fourth turned out quickly under a penalty back at that venue (10f) next time and whilst he disappointed latest, bounce back not ruled out returned to turf back from 54 days off.
Chance on this winter's AW best but he failed to fire at Lingfield last time; risky.
5th
5th (4) Asdaa (22/1 -300%)
Asdaa

22/1(-300%)
(4) Asdaa 22/1, Winner at Pontefract (1m) last summer and successful 3 times on AW during the winter. Arrives here fit from a creditable third in 7-runner handicap at Newcastle (1m) in March and he's operating from last winning mark.
Three AW wins this winter; not beaten far at Newcastle latest; quicker ground preferable.
6th
6th (1) Cubana Habana (3.33/1 +17%)
Cubana Habana

3.33/1(+17%)
(1) Cubana Habana 3.33/1, Improved on promising debut effort when landing 6-runner Hamilton maiden (8.3f) 12 months ago. Exploits mixed in handicaps at up to 12f thereafter but bounce back not ruled out on return from career low mark/back down markedly in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time.
Handicapper in charge after his maiden win; down in weights for return; headgear added.
7th
7th (7) Motarajel (12/1 +25%)
Motarajel

12/1(+25%)
(7) Motarajel 12/1, C&D winner who regained winning thread at Ripon (1m) in July and best effort thereafter when runner-up back here in September. Mixed bag final 3 starts, ninth of 14 in handicap at Newcastle (10.2f) when last seen in November. May sharpen up for this first start for almost 6 months.
Good record at the track but well beaten in this race last year; quicker ground ideal.
LTO Selection:

17:13 Beverley Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary, as each horse has varying levels of success and potential. However, 2.75/1 (5) ON THE RIVER appears to be the most promising based on recent form, having won a 16-runner handicap race at Pontefract after a 7-month break and still being fairly low-mileage. 5.5/1 (4) ASDAA also has three AW wins this winter and arrives fit from a creditable third in a 7-runner handicap at Newcastle. 16/1 (7) MOTARAJEL has a good record at the track and may sharpen up for this first start in almost 6 months.

On The River may prove popular here under a penalty after winning at Pontefract, but he needs to take a step forward here to follow up and may struggle. Richard Fahey has trained two of the last four winners of this contest, suggesting that CUBANA HABANA has a solid chance in first-time cheekpieces and he has to be of interest dropping back in trip, despite top weight. Nasim could also have a say if he can recapture his 2022 form.

This looks wide open and with that in mind it could pay to take a chance on Richard Fahey's CUBANA HABANA. His exploits proved mixed in handicaps last term but a good pace to aim back at 1m on return should play to his strengths and he's now operating from a career-low mark. Pontefract scorer On The River is feared most under a penalty, ahead of Nasim and Ugo Gregory.

Ugo Gregory is handicapped to win but CUBANA HABANA drops in class for his reappearance and he can take full advantage.

(1) Khal 4/1, Fair form on 2 of his 3 starts in novice events at around 1m but struggled to make an impact (having been gelded) when failing to beat a rival on each of his 2 starts in AW handicaps earlier this year. Needs to get back on track returned to turf.

4th (3) King Harry (5/1 +0%)
King Harry

(3) King Harry 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 11 in minor novice event at Thirsk (7f) in August, fading final 1f. However, does now get a crack at handicaps and progress distinctly possible tackling this longer trip. One to monitor closely in the market.

7th
7th (6) Greek Siren (9/1 +64%)
Greek Siren

9/1(+64%)
(6) Greek Siren 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at this course (7.4f, good to soft, 25/1) 12 days ago. Significant step up in trip needs to unlock some improvement now but this is possible.
LTO Selection:

17:48 Beverley Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

5/1 (5) ANIERES GIRL looks like the horse with the most potential to do well based on the summary. She has shown improvement in her recent runs and is expected to take a step forward with the increase in distance.

ANIERES GIRL must be a key player based on the fact she has previous course experience and her pedigree suggests that she could be a factor now facing a stiffer test of stamina. She is entitled to come on from her seasonal debut at Nottingham last month, but Blue Yonder is also open to improvement over the trip and is feared most on his return to turf. Khal disappointed at Chelmsford last time out but cannot be ruled out for a reputable stable.

ANIERES GIRL shaped much better than the distance beaten suggests on her respective return at Nottingham 3 weeks ago and, having ran her best race at this venue on her final start as a juvenile last term, she could be worth chancing to take a step forward with this trip expected to suit. Blue Yonder rates a big threat following his recent Southwell third, with King Harry also worth monitoring on return/handicap debut.

A maiden handicap in all but name. On recent form BLUE YONDER has the best claims.

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.
