13:55 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
5	5 (5) (11/4 +45%) Wise Guy	2.75 11/4(+45%)	(5) Wise Guy 11/4, Progressed again to open his account in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Lingfield (2m, heavy) last month. Turned over when odds on for his recent follow-up bid off this mark at Huntingdon, which somewhat tempers enthusiasm. Off the mark in February and not discredited when second last time; still has potential.
2	2 (2) (10/3 +52%) Sleeping Satellite	3.333333 10/3(+52%)	(2) Sleeping Satellite 10/3, Point/bumper winner who opened hurdles account in a C&D novice last term. Stepped up on return/handicap debut effort when second of 14 at Doncaster in December and, provided he's ready to roll following a break, a bold show could be on the way with William Maggs booked. C&D maiden; creditable second in Doncaster handicap last time and still low mileage.
1	1 (1) (9/2 -157%) Mount Gallion	4.5 9/2(-157%)	(1) Mount Gallion 9/2, Regressed in bumpers in Ireland but it's been a different story switched to hurdles for new connections, making it third time lucky in this sphere when landing a Huntingdon maiden (15.8f, soft) last time. Further progress likely now moving into handicap company. Kept on well to win Huntingdon maiden this month and might progress again in handicaps.
7	7 (7) (5/1 -25%) Chumlee	5 5/1(-25%)	(7) Chumlee 5/1, Low-mileage 9-y-o who left his qualifying runs well behind when making a successful handicap debut over 17f at Newcastle 12 months ago. Improved some more when scoring over the same C&D on second start following a break but this is more demanding up 4 lb. 2-3 in handicaps (both wins at Newcastle); no surprise if he makes further progress here.
4	4 (4) (7/1 -75%) Maillot Blanc	7 7/1(-75%)	(4) Maillot Blanc 7/1, Successful at Hereford last January and placed on 4 of his 5 subsequent starts, most recently at Perth (20.2f, soft) where he was reeled in close home. On the downside, he has an 11-month absence to overcome on this debut for new yard. In good form at end of last season but makes stable debut after 11-month absence.
6	6 (6) (15/2 +38%) Applaus	7.5 15/2(+38%)	(6) Applaus 15/2, Untrustworthy individual who isn't getting any younger and has not been at his best of late. Conversely, this 3-time C&D winner was a good third off a 10 lb higher mark here in November and a reproduction of that effort would put him firmly in the picture. Runs this track well and is very well handicapped but has become very unreliable.
8	8 (8) (22/1 -10%) Don't Look Back	22 22/1(-10%)	(8) Don't Look Back 22/1, Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1m) and latest fourth of 14 in a handicap hurdle at Ayr (2m, good to soft) was his best effort yet in this sphere. However, combination of this stiffer track/forecast slower ground probably won't be ideal, as stamina doesn't appear to be his forte. 0-8 over hurdles; fair fourth at Ayr this month but effectively 3lb higher here.
3	3 (3) (80/1 -142%) Shantou Lucky	80 80/1(-142%)	(3) Shantou Lucky 80/1, Three-time winner in Ireland for Gavin Cromwell but ended last season on a downer and offered little on debut for new connections last month. Chase/dual hurdle winner in Ireland but pulled up when 40-1 for last month's stable debut.

13:55 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Now that the penny has dropped for MOUNT GALLION after a relatively comfortable success at Huntingdon, there should be plenty more to come from the six-year-old on his handicap debut off what looks a workable mark. A winner of two of his last three starts, Chumlee must enter calculations along with Sleeping Satellite, who produced a creditable effort at Doncaster in December. Maillot Blanc and Wise Guy have the form to get involved too.

There should be more to come from MOUNT GALLION, who built on his eye-catching run at Newcastle when landing a Huntingdon maiden earlier this month and this opening mark doesn't look excessive. Sleeping Satellite was a winner of a C&D novice on his sole previous visit here and he rates the main danger on the back of his creditable second in a Doncaster handicap when last seen in December. The veteran Applaus is dangerous to discount having slipped down the weights and he is best of the rest.

Two of the others were last-time-out winners but this might be fought out by SLEEPING SATELLITE and Wise Guy.

14:30 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f - 3 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (Evens +47%) Grey Skies	0 Evens(+47%)	(3) Grey Skies Evens, Dual winner in novice company last spring and wasn't beaten far back from a break here (21f, soft) in December. Another sound effort when second at Market Rasen next time before failing to stay 23.6f on his latest start. Needs considering back down in trip. Did not see out 2m7f last month but has strong claims here if judged on earlier form.
4	4 (4) (5/4 +29%) Cornerstone Lad	1.25 5/4(+29%)	(4) Cornerstone Lad 5/4, Six-time winner from 16 starts over hurdles but strike rate in this sphere is not so good (1-19). Decent second off 3 lb higher at Newcastle on penultimate start but below par tried in a visor at Ayr next time and connections now turn to blinkers. Kept on well to snatch second two starts ago but is nothing like the force of old.
1	1 (1) (8/1 -129%) Getaway Luv	8 8/1(-129%)	(1) Getaway Luv 8/1, Resumed winning ways at Wetherby (19.4f, good) in October, before making the frame at Catterick last time. However, failed to fire on his latest start in January (since undergone a wind op) and he could do with the ground drying out. Just held on off today's mark in the autumn but would appeal more on better ground.

14:30 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

The Micky Hammond stable can do little wrong at present and this looks like a perfect opportunity for CORNERSTONE LAD to get back to winning ways. The son of Delegator may be winless since January 2022, but he has dropped to a mark 27lb below his last success and he can see off The Big Jetaway, who will have benefitted from a break following his Sedgefield mishap. Grey Skies could be the stable's first string going by the booking of Brian Hughes.

Stablemates GREY SKIES and The Big Jetaway can fight out the finish. The former appeals as the most likely winner having edged back down to the mark off which he scored at Perth last spring, while this drop back in trip looks a good move and he is Brian Hughes's pick. Cornerstone Lad could be in line for minor place money.

This drop back in trip looks the right move for GREY SKIES (nap), and he appears to have been found a very good opportunity.

15:05 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (4/5 -19%) Mr Bramley	0.8 4/5(-19%)	(2) Mr Bramley 4/5, Progressive in bumpers and immediate improvement on hurdles debut at Bangor (19.6f, heavy) where he landed a decent novice event in decisive fashion. Has to be taken very seriously indeed with further progress a distinct possibility. Confirmed bumper promise when making winning hurdling debut at Bangor; may well follow up.
4	4 (4) (3/1 +14%) Looking As You Are	3 3/1(+14%)	(4) Looking As You Are 3/1, Showed plenty when runner-up on first 3 outings in bumpers and improved on her hurdling debut form to get off the mark at Ludlow last month. Another step forward when doubling her tally at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) and she should have a part to play. Progressive winner of two mares hurdles; faces sterner assignment against geldings.
3	3 (3) (10/3 -11%) Panhandle Slim	3.333333 10/3(-11%)	(3) Panhandle Slim 10/3, Hit the frame in a couple of above-average bumpers and confirmed the promise of his hurdling debut when winning 8-runner novice at Sedgefield (19.8f, soft) on Boxing Day. Solid 5¾ lengths third to Mr Bramley at Bangor since and this stiffer track should play to his strengths. Better off with Mr Bramley after finishing third at Bangor but that rival looks unexposed.
6	6 (6) (40/1 -60%) The White Rat	40 40/1(-60%)	(6) The White Rat 40/1, Forever Now gelding. Dam 2½m-3m hurdle/chase winner. Fourth on sole start in points this month and probably worth taking on here. Beaten 19l in 2m point bumper 13 days ago; bred to be better suited by this sort of trip.
7	7 (7) (66/1 -100%) Atlanticexpress	66 66/1(-100%)	(7) Atlanticexpress 66/1, Closely related to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Lock's Corner, stays 25f, and modest hurdler My Peggy. However, safely held on debut for Joseph O'Brien in a mares' maiden hurdle at Punchestown and opposable starting out for new yard here. Well held on her only run in Ireland; needs to have improved markedly for change of stable.
5	5 (5) (150/1 -127%) Charizord	150 150/1(-127%)	(5) Charizord 150/1, Showed nothing in Naas bumper for Harry Smyth last February and reappearance spin for new yard at Newcastle was devoid of promise. Big step forward needed now switched to hurdles. Beaten out of sight in two bumpers, most recently on stable debut; difficult to recommend.

15:05 Carlisle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MR BRAMLEY scored with authority at Bangor last month and makes plenty of appeal. He beat a good yardstick that day in the shape of dual bumper scorer Guard The Moon and both the trip and ground is ideal for the six-year-old. Looking As You Are has won at Ludlow and Plumpton and she is another to consider going against the boys this time, while Panhandle Slim is respected too.

This has the look a of a pretty useful novice event and MR BRAMLEY gets the nod. He improved with each of his three starts in bumpers and continued on an upward curve when striking on debut in this sphere at Bangor. Panhandle Slim, who put in a good shift behind the selection at Bangor and should be suited by this stiffer track, is the danger. The hat-trick seeking Looking As You Are is also accorded respect.

There might be more improvement in MR BRAMLEY who was impressive at Bangor. Panhandle Slim has a 6lb pull with the selection.

15:40 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (7/4 +7%) Ned Tanner	1.75 7/4(+7%)	(2) Ned Tanner 7/4, Scored twice over fences at Kelso last season and placed on a couple of occasions there this season, including when third of 10 in a handicap hurdle last time. Definite chance if he puts his best foot forward. May prefer left-handed tracks but this is a bit easier than the races he usually contests.
1	1 (1) (11/5 -10%) Go Boy	2.2 11/5(-10%)	(1) Go Boy 11/5, Fair hurdles winner in Ireland and created a fine impression at second attempt over fences when making a successful stable debut here (2m, soft) in December. Jumping wasn't so assured at Kelso since but it could be that he's more effective on right-handed tracks (such as this). Big player. 2m course winner on stable debut in December and remains lightly raced for his age.
5	5 (5) (10/3 +49%) Geryville	3.333333 10/3(+49%)	(5) Geryville 10/3, Winless last season but is creeping down the weights and latest third at Wetherby (19.4f, heavy) was a creditable effort. Down another 2 lb and he's dangerous to discount. Below best this season but took good step back in right direction last month.
3	3 (3) (5/1 +17%) Flower Of Scotland	5 5/1(+17%)	(3) Flower Of Scotland 5/1, Borders National winner at Kelso last term before good third in Edinburgh National. Reportedly suffered a setback following low-key reappearance here in November and again below par when returning from a break in the Eider. In calmer waters now and good conditional booked but this trip is a worry. Eased in grade today but has a bit to prove and usually runs over much further.

15:40 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

GO BOY got off the mark over fences over 2m here in December and, although slightly disappointing at Kelso 20 days ago, the son of Doctor Dino has scope for further improvement. A 2m3f hurdles winner when trained in Ireland, this step up in trip can see Sandy Thomson's charge resume his progress and repel the likely challenge of High Moon, who posted a creditable second at Ayr last time out. Geryville might not be the most reliable, but it would be folly to rule him out.

This looks trappy, with all five of these in with a fighting chance. GO BOY looked good when making a winning debut for this yard here in December and, though not so good at Kelso subsequently, he is appealing back here given his record on right-hand tracks (2-3 going this way round under Rules). Ned Tanner will be a threat if he gets into a good rhythm jumping-wise and is feared most ahead of High Moon and Geryville. Go Boy's stablemate Flower of Scotland will probably find this trip too sharp.

Nick Alexander's NED TANNER has performed well in stronger races than this over the last few months and might make his class tell here.

16:15 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 25f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (9/4 -50%) Clovis Island	2.25 9/4(-50%)	(1) Clovis Island 9/4, Runner-up on only start in Irish points before winning a Hexham bumper on Rules debut last March. Made to work harder than had seemed likely when landing the odds in a maiden hurdle back at Hexham (2½m, heavy) recently but may have more to offer now upped in trip for this handicap debut. Maiden winner who is open to improvement now handicapping over further.
5	5 (5) (3/1 +45%) Enemy At The Gate	3 3/1(+45%)	(5) Enemy At The Gate 3/1, Remains a maiden following 11 starts in this sphere but hasn't done a great deal wrong in 5 starts so far this season. Latest third in a handicap for amateur/conditional riders here (19.3f, soft) last time augurs well with regard to this step back up in trip and he's one to consider. Kept on well over 2m3f here and returning to further looks a big plus.
6	6 (6) (9/2 +0%) Artic Mann	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(6) Artic Mann 9/2, Has made the frame all 5 runs since returning from a lengthy absence in October. Best work at the finish when second in a 15-runner Ayr handicap (24.3f, good) 3 weeks ago and should be in the mix once again. Consistent in 2m5f-3m2f handicaps since returning from an absence and deserves a break.
7	7 (7) (7/1 +42%) Shantou Moon	7 7/1(+42%)	(7) Shantou Moon 7/1, Back to winning ways at Catterick in January and only narrowly failed to follow up in 7-runner handicap there a month later. Not seen to best effect the last twice but there's little margin for error off this mark and he will probably find one or two too good. Not at best last time but has solid form credentials on his previous run of form.
3	3 (3) (9/1 -100%) Tfou	9 9/1(-100%)	(3) Tfou 9/1, Made the frame both starts in this sphere a couple of seasons back and scored on chase debut/return at Ayr last term. Creditable efforts in defeat both subsequent starts and he's one to be interested in back hurdling, despite an 11-month absence and the fact that Sean Quinlan prefers Clovis Island. Absent 12 months and fences are no doubt on the agenda again sooner or later.
4	4 (4) (12/1 +14%) Guernesey	12 12/1(+14%)	(4) Guernesey 12/1, Good first outing for this yard when runner-up at Kelso in November buthasn't managed to build on that in 4 subsequent starts. Others preferred. Hasn't really kicked on from his second on stable debut in November; bit to find.
8	8 (8) (12/1 -33%) Gypsey's Secret	12 12/1(-33%)	(8) Gypsey's Secret 12/1, Still a maiden but comes here in excellent heart, most recently finishing second at Ayr (24.3f, heavy) where she conceded first run to the winner. Certainly not without a chance here, for all that she's 5 lb 'wrong' at the weights. Nearly shed maiden status last time but now 9lb higher and upped to a Class 4.
2	2 (2) (25/1 -25%) Schalke	25 25/1(-25%)	(2) Schalke 25/1, Winner at Kelso in December 2022 but it's been a struggle so far this season and there's no real reason to anticipate a revival here. Should be well handicapped but he's struggling to get competitive; a turnaround is needed.

16:15 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 25f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

CLOVIS ISLAND struck in workmanlike fashion over 2m4f at Hexham 16 days ago and the six-year-old, who is a half-brother to Grade 1 winner Inthepocket, is fancied to relish the switch to handicaps, while a step up in trip looks to be a further positive. Although Artic Mann hasn't been the most prolific, he will have no issue with conditions and should give a good account of himself. Enemy At The Gate seeks a first career success, but recent performances would suggest it is not far away.

The vote goes to ENEMY AT THE GATE, who is of strong interest on just his second run over a trip in excess of 3m and he shaped for all the world as though going back up in distance would be very much in his favour when third over 19.3f here last time. Gypsey's Secret posted her best effort yet at Ayr and is feared most, while the consistent Artic Mann and the Nicky Richards-trained duo, Clovis Island and Tfou, also come into the reckoning.

Clovis Island is the dark horse but others have more compelling form credentials and ARTIC MANN continues to run well.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (6/4 -36%) Largy Train	1.5 6/4(-36%)	(1) Largy Train 6/4, Improved from completely out of the blue when landing a Sedgefield handicap chase last month. Proved that that was no flash in the pan when following up at Hexham (2½m, heavy) recently and he should make a bold bid to complete the hat-trick. Wide-margin winner at Sedgefield last month and followed up in gritty style at Hexham.
4	4 (4) (2/1 +40%) Baron Briggs	2 2/1(+40%)	(4) Baron Briggs 2/1, Better efforts since undergoing a wind op, finishing third in handicaps at Kelso (17f), Musselburgh (20.3f) and again when upped to 3m at Ayr last month. Fair fourth in first-time cheekpieces (retained, plus tongue strap refitted) over the same C&D since and he's a live contender. Slightly disappointing this month but began 2024 with two good thirds (2m4f/3m); a player.
3	3 (3) (3/1 -9%) Great Ballinboris	3 3/1(-9%)	(3) Great Ballinboris 3/1, Failed to make an impact over hurdles but there were some positives to take from his chase debut third at Wetherby (19.4f, heavy) on Boxing Day, especially considering that he was returning from almost 12 months off. Possibilities if able to build on that. Very lightly raced 8yo who made encouraging seasonal/chase/handicap debut in December.
2	2 (2) (14/1 -75%) Toombridge	14 14/1(-75%)	(2) Toombridge 14/1, Runner-up in an Irish point a couple of years ago but he hasn't threated in 7 appearances under Rules (bumpers/hurdles). Sizeable step forward needed now that he tackles the larger obstacles. Well beaten in two handicap hurdles this year; has too much to prove on chasing debut.
5	5 (5) (18/1 -29%) The White Volcano	18 18/1(-29%)	(5) The White Volcano 18/1, Veteran who lost his way in Ireland and hard to derive any encouragement from his exploits since joining present yard. Record stands at 0-11 over fences. Ex-Irish veteran who has not won since 2019 and was out of form when last seen last spring.
6	6 (6) (66/1 +0%) Diamond Road	66 66/1(+0%)	(6) Diamond Road 66/1, Yet to show any worthwhile form and absent since pulled up on return at Newcastle in November. Poor maiden who can't be recommended from 5lb out of the weights.

16:50 Carlisle Handicap Chase (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

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

Largy Train is respected as he bids to complete a three-timer and, having only gone up 2lb for his most recent success, he may have more to offer. However, BARON BRIGGS has shown ability over fences, despite finding 3m to be a stretch on his last two starts. Now tried with a first-time tongue-tie and dropped back in trip, this could be the time to catch him. Great Ballinboris also appeals on just his second try over fences.

It's probably fair to say that BARON BRIGGS has failed to progress since switched to fences but, at the same time, he hasn't done much wrong and a first taste of success could be on the cards. Largy Train is clearly the main danger ahead of Great Ballinboris.

He's not always a fluent jumper but BARON BRIGGS might enjoy the relatively easy fences here and gets the nod.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
8	8 (8) (3/1 +63%) Tommy Combats	3 3/1(+63%)	(8) Tommy Combats 3/1, Bought for £21,000 after finishing third on the first of 2 starts in Irish points. Has made the frame on 2 of his 3 starts in maiden hurdles and it wouldn't be much of a surprise were he to up his game now pitched into a handicap. Handicaps of this nature should now provide better opportunities; market useful.
1	1 (1) (4/1 +27%) Final Edgar	4 4/1(+27%)	(1) Final Edgar 4/1, Much improved when getting off the mark in 11-runner novice at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) last month. Backed that up when finding just one too good over the same C&D since and possibilities here off an unchanged mark. Just missed out on handicap debut; the winner ran well in defeat last weekend.
4	4 (4) (4/1 -14%) Follow Charlie	4 4/1(-14%)	(4) Follow Charlie 4/1, Has done well since switched to handicaps, off the mark at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) in January and struck again over ths same C&D earlier this month. 8 lb rise demands improvement but he's a player all the same. Impressive enough at Ayr to earn an 8lb rise; in form and probably improving.
2	2 (2) (6/1 -33%) Masked Crusader	6 6/1(-33%)	(2) Masked Crusader 6/1, Landed a pair of novice hurdles in 2022. Temperament has come under suspicion since but produced his best effort for a while when just touched off over this C&D and a reproduction of that form would give him a solid chance. Form figures of 212 here, latterly only narrowly failing to make all over C&D.
7	7 (7) (9/1 -125%) Master Breffni	9 9/1(-125%)	(7) Master Breffni 9/1, More miss than hit over hurdles in Ireland and 0-4 in handicap chases for present yard. However, he surely would've collected had he stayed on all fours at Catterick last time (going well in the lead when falling at the final fence) and it'll be interesting to see how he fares back in this sphere. In front when falling two out over fences last time; back hurdling off 3lb higher; chance.
3	3 (3) (9/1 -50%) Foillan	9 9/1(-50%)	(3) Foillan 9/1, On a good mark judged on peak hurdles for Dr Richard Newland during 2021/22 campaign. Hasn't pulled up any trees in 4 starts for present yard but he is at least coming down the weights. His finishing effort in this new headgear combination last time was disappointing.
9	9 (9) (12/1 +0%) Ashjan	12 12/1(+0%)	(9) Ashjan 12/1, Won 3 times over fences in 2022 and posted much his best effort of this season to date when fourth of 12 over C&D.earlier this month. However, his temperament isn't all it could be and others make more appeal for win purposes. Perhaps flattered from out of the weights last time; off the same mark here.
5	5 (5) (20/1 -25%) The King Of May	20 20/1(-25%)	(5) The King Of May 20/1, Would be thrown in off this mark if anywhere near his best but he has struggled since finishing a decent third over this C&D in November. Back hurdling for his last three runs and hasn't been getting competitive.
6	6 (6) (28/1 -133%) Jimmy Rabbitte	28 28/1(-133%)	(6) Jimmy Rabbitte 28/1, Losing run stretches back to July 2019 but he was knocking firmly on the door last summer. Solid second at Perth (3m, good) when last seen in August and this drop back in trip won't be an issue. Will be a threat if fully tuned up for this. Running well but goodish ground is ideal and softer looks troublesome.

17:25 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Several hold decent chances and the likes of Follow Charlie, a winner over the extended 2m4f at Ayr last time, and the progressive Final Edgar both warrant serious consideration. As does Tommy Combats, who holds potential off a workable mark on his handicap debut. However, preference is for MASKED CRUSADER, who was unlucky to be pipped at the post in a hands and heels/conditional riders' race over this C&D 23 days ago and, with Brian Hughes now taking over in the saddle, he can go one place better this time.

This looks pretty competitive and the vote goes to MASTER BREFFNI, who had matters under control when departing at the final fence at Catterick and this drop back in trip is unlikely to be an issue. Final Edgar looks a big threat with talented conditional William Maggs booked, while Masked Crusader and Follow Charlie are others who command respect.

A few to consider. FINAL EDGAR may have more upside than some of these with him still lightly raced and seemingly improving.

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.
