1	8 1st (8) (4/1 -14%) City Derby		4 4/1(-14%)																															(8) City Derby 4/1, Underwent a wind op during the spring and has evidently benefited from it, allaying any stamina concerns as he completed a course hat-trick over C&D 33 days ago. Assessor applies further pressure but another holding claims in present groove. Tongue strap back on. Completed hat-trick with C&D win last month; just out of weights in stronger race today.
2	1 2nd (1) (17/2 -183%) Tommie Beau		8.5 17/2(-183%)																															(1) Tommie Beau 17/2, Multiple winner over fences last term who capitalised on drop in grade over fences here in May and made light of quick turnaround from lower mark over hurdles over C&D later that month. Up 5 lb but claims in hat-trick bid after 3 months off. Prolific chaser who collected a good prize over C&D when back hurdling in June; respected.
3	4 3rd (4) (8/1 +0%) Hurricane Ali		8 8/1(+0%)																															(4) Hurricane Ali 8/1, Losing run is mounting up but he's posted solid placed efforts on 2 of his 3 starts since joining present yard, third of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (22.1f, good to firm, 9/1) 35 days ago. Stamina has to be taken on trust here, however. Placed twice over 2m6f here for new stable this season; stamina might be stretched today.
4	5 4th (5) (11/4 +73%) Our Sam		2.75 11/4(+73%)																															(5) Our Sam 11/4, Bagged a hat-trick of victories last summer, including this corresponding race from 3 lb lower. Hasn't been disgraced in couple of starts earlier this season and he's worth bearing in mind stepping back up to this trip. Won this race off 3lb lower on soft ground last year; no surprise if he defends his crown.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 +0%) Aramax		12 12/1(+0%)																															(3) Aramax 12/1, Successful twice (including over C&D) before losing his way. Low-key effort at Uttoxeter in May but some promise to glean from his effort when seventh behind Tommie Beau returned to this C&D 89 days ago. Handicapper has afforded him a chance. C&D winner last season; not at best this year but latest run was quite encouraging.
6th	7 6th (7) (9/2 -13%) Saint Bibiana		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(7) Saint Bibiana 9/2, Another who has improved markedly since stepping up in trip, completing quick-fire hat-trick over C&D in June. Confirmed she remains one to be interested in with a solid second at Newton Abbot (26.5f) last month and she's very much of interest again. Bang-in-form mare who has won three times (one over C&D) this season; up in grade today.
2	2 |PU| (2) (9/2 -29%) Secret Trix		4.5 9/2(-29%)																															(2) Secret Trix 9/2, Has finished out of the first 2 only once in 9 starts since fitted with cheekpieces, resuming winning ways after a breathing operation at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft) in July. Forecast conditions will hold no fears and he's respected again. Posted another career best at Uttoxeter last month and is now 6-17 over hurdles.
6	6 |PU| (6) (40/1 -21%) Eyeofthescorpion		40 40/1(-21%)																															(6) Eyeofthescorpion 40/1, Capable if not the most willing under pressure over hurdles for previous connections. Off 19 months, was beginning to struggle when unseating at the tenth on stable debut over fences at Perth 7 days ago. This should reveal more but percentage call to look elsewhere. Back hurdling after three non-completions over fences; others have much less to prove.

15:25 Cartmel Handicap Hurdle (Class 2) 25f Race Class Flow

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

TOMMIE BEAU arrives in search of a hat-trick having scored over C&D on his latest outing and is only 5lb higher for that success. Seamus Mullins' nine-year-old looks to have lots in his favour and may go in again. Secret Trix justified his place in the market with no real trouble after a wind operation at Uttoxeter last month and should remain competitive, while the in-form Saint Bibiana is another to take seriously.

Plenty of in-form sorts in opposition with SAINT BIBIANA given the narrow vote to come out on top. Having completed a quick-fire hat-trick over C&D in June, she again ran well when runner-up at Newton Abbot 5 weeks ago and a 3 lb rise shouldn't prevent another bold showing. Secret Trix and City Derby are others to consider, along with last year's winner Our Sam, who will appreciate the return to this longer trip.

He's much better known as a chaser but TOMMIE BEAU (nap) was an excellent C&D winner when back over hurdles in May and gets the vote.

1	4 1st (4) (9/4 +25%) Restandbethankful		2.25 9/4(+25%)																															(4) Restandbethankful 9/4, Won twice over fences last year and has shaped well when runner-up over hurdles here on her last 2 outings. Has had wind surgery. Big player back chasing. Dual chase winner who switches back to fences after two seconds over hurdles here.
2	2 2nd (2) (5/2 -67%) Cuzco Du Mathan		2.5 5/2(-67%)																															(2) Cuzco Du Mathan 5/2, Bolted up over hurdles here last August and struck at the second time of asking over fences in a C&D handicap last month. Possibly benefited from the leaders going too hard on that occasion but he could have more to offer in this discipline. Kept on strongly to open chasing account over C&D last month, his ninth attempt.
3	3 3rd (3) (4/1 -14%) Lermoos Legend		4 4/1(-14%)																															(3) Lermoos Legend 4/1, Won 23f handicap chase at Worcester last summer but is effective over much shorter, including runner-up over C&D in June. Latest Uttoxeter fourth creditable. Dual C&D winner; back in decent form this season and likely to make his presence felt.
4	1 4th (1) (9/2 +44%) Ciel De Neige		4.5 9/2(+44%)																															(1) Ciel De Neige 9/2, Smart chaser at his peak for Willie Mullins. Yet to fire for this yard but needs keeping an eye on in the betting as he's dangerously well treated on his best form. Smart at his best but yet to be placed after seven stable starts.
5th	5 5th (5) (14/1 -133%) Tonto's Spirit		14 14/1(-133%)																															(5) Tonto's Spirit 14/1, Veteran who is bidding for a seventh C&D win. Pulled up first 2 outings this term but showed he retains ability when 3 lengths fifth of 10 over C&D 5 weeks ago. Nine course wins; latest run proved he still has fire in his belly; dangerous to ignore.

16:00 Cartmel Handicap Chase (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

CUZCO DU MATHAN showed a likeable attitude when scoring by a yawning margin over this track and trip last month and, upped 5lb, should be tough to stop provided he arrives in a similar vein of form. Restandbethankful appears to be the main danger to the selection on the back of a couple of excellent runner-up efforts over hurdles recently, while the formerly smart Ciel De Neige's mark continues to fall and he merits a second look in a bid to arrest the slide.

RESTANDBETHANKFUL has been shaping up well over hurdles here in recent months and could prove the answer if he's derived any benefit from a recent wind operation. Last month's C&D winner Cuzco du Mathan may give him most to do.

Preference is for dual C&D winner LERMOOS LEGEND, who has got his career back on track in recent months.

1	8 1st (8) (7/2 +78%) Judicial Review		3.5 7/2(+78%)																															(8) Judicial Review 7/2, Went the wrong way in bumpers (fair form at best) and made little impression over hurdles last term. Discouraging run tried in cheekpieces and tongue strap on handicap/chase debut. Little appeal. Remains unexposed but was just a modest fourth over C&D on last month's chasing debut.
2	7 2nd (7) (9/2 -13%) Kicksaftersix		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(7) Kicksaftersix 9/2, Opened his account in a handicap chase at Hexham last summer and best effort since when good second at this course (17.3f, good to firm) 35 days ago, shaping as if return to this trip will suit. Player. Went close over 2m1f on good ground here last month; 2m5f on soft going may stretch him.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/8 +38%) Dr Sanderson		1.875 15/8(+38%)																															(4) Dr Sanderson 15/8, Last 3 wins have come at this track including over 17f in June. Good placed efforts here next 2 starts, likely to have gone close had he not been badly hampered last time, and he remains of interest. Three-time course winner; placed off this mark over C&D last month; major player.
4	5 4th (5) (40/1 -21%) Animore		40 40/1(-21%)																															(5) Animore 40/1, Capitalised on the drop to a career-low mark when scoring in an Ayr handicap hurdle in March 2023 but off over a year and left Iain Jardine prior to well-held fourth of 6 at Hexham and no better over this C&D since. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Veteran mare who has not shown much on her two starts since returning from a long absence.
5th	1 5th (1) (7/1 -17%) Jelski		7 7/1(-17%)																															(1) Jelski 7/1, Back-to-back winner here last summer off higher marks but continues to operate below his best this term. Not at best this season but ran okay here last month and is eased in grade today.
6th	9 6th (9) (11/1 +56%) Old Page		11 11/1(+56%)																															(9) Old Page 11/1, Long-standing maiden who is easy to oppose from out of the handicap. Soundly beaten over 3m1f here in May and now 0-26 under rules; 8lb wrong today.
3	3 |PU| (3) (6/1 +40%) Arctic Ambition		6 6/1(+40%)																															(3) Arctic Ambition 6/1, Lost his way for Gordon Elliott but step back in the right direction for this yard when second off reduced mark over C&D. Back in the doldrums at Worcester since, however, and headgear now applied. Good second over C&D in June but well held since; not easy to predict in new blinkers.

16:35 Cartmel Handicap Chase (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

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

The King Of May (first) got the better of DR SANDERSON (second) when the pair met over C&D last month, but the latter was unlucky not to finish closer to the winner having been badly hampered when looking like he was going to mount a serious challenge in the home straight. To that end, Ben Haslam's charge, who is 4lb better off at the weights this time around, looks the one to side with. Kicksaftersix is capable of playing a hand in a race of this nature.

The in-form DR SANDERSON might well have won but for being badly hampered when second to The King of May over C&D last month and can make amends off the same mark. Kicksaftersix is closely matched with the selection on their running here 5 weeks ago and is next best.

Class-dropper JELSKI has not been at his best this season but won't mind what the weather does and may exploit a tempting mark.

1	7 1st (7) (9/1 +25%) Miss Fedora		9 9/1(+25%)																															(7) Miss Fedora 9/1, Opened her account over hurdles Fontwell in November but mostly disappointing since, including over fences this season. Won mares' handicap in November (heavy); mainly below par since (over fences this term).
2	9 2nd (9) (10/3 +49%) Heart Above		3.333333 10/3(+49%)																															(9) Heart Above 10/3, Yet to get close to his fairly useful bumper form in this sphere and only seventh in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Others are preferred. Maiden; fair third at Hexham in June but a bit to find with Iolani on last week's form.
3	1 3rd (1) (2/1 -33%) Lightening Company		2 2/1(-33%)																															(1) Lightening Company 2/1, Fairly useful winner at 10f on Flat. Lightly raced in this sphere and got off the mark in 9-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago. Big shout despite taking a 5 lb rise in the weights. Quite useful on the Flat; off the mark over C&D last time; chance off this 5lb higher mark.
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 +30%) Morandi Second		7 7/1(+30%)																															(4) Morandi Second 7/1, Good second in 2m Doncaster handicap hurdle in January 2023 but has largely struggled since. Dropping in the weights but still needs to take a big step forward. 2nd in Doncaster novice handicap in January 2023; disappointing since; more needed.
5th	3 5th (3) (10/1 -25%) Shantou Lucky		10 10/1(-25%)																															(3) Shantou Lucky 10/1, Winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland for Gavin Cromwell. Some encouragement here on his debut for new stable but has twice failed to back it up. Well weighted if back on his A-game. Ex-Gavin Cromwell; fair form for this yard, on a good mark and could go well.
6th	8 6th (8) (13/2 -18%) Iolani		6.5 13/2(-18%)																															(8) Iolani 13/2, Veteran scored over C&D in May and posted a creditable fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Veteran; latest of 11 wins was a C&D selling h'cap in May; fair run last week; contender.
7th	5 7th (5) (17/2 +47%) Mr Rumbalicious		8.5 17/2(+47%)																															(5) Mr Rumbalicious 17/2, Yet to fire in two runs this term, only tenth of 14 in handicap hurdle over C&D (good) 57 days ago. Took this 12 months ago though so can't be totally dismissed with hood back on. Won this off 4lb higher last term; tailed off on only completed run since; plenty to prove.
6	6 |PU| (6) (22/1 +12%) Milan Echo		22 22/1(+12%)																															(6) Milan Echo 22/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Hexham (23.3f, good) 62 days ago, though he was prominent to 3 out. No forlorn hope now back down in trip with cheekpieces added. Ex-Irish; fair 4th on stable debut; disappointing since; headgear tried; others preferred.

17:05 Cartmel Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

LIGHTENING COMPANY pulled clear with the eventual runner-up when landing a breakthrough victory over hurdles over C&D last month, and the suspicion is that a 5lb rise may not be enough to anchor him here. Heart Above finished third over 2m at Hexham on his penultimate start and must be of interest off a 1lb lower mark, with Iolani catching the eye off just 2lb higher than his last winning mark.

A number of these arrive with a question mark against them so this looks a good opportunity for LIGHTENING COMPANY to make light of a 5 lb rise and follow up his C&D success last month. Fellow C&D scorer Iolani arrives in good nick and is feared most with last year's victor Mr Rumbalicious and the handily-weighted Shantou Lucky also in the picture if back on song.

A low-grade handicap hurdle can go to IOLANI, who won a C&D selling handicap in May and was a fair fourth last time.

1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +70%) Treasured Company		6 6/1(+70%)																															(7) Treasured Company 6/1, Dual winner in 2021 but lightly raced and largely disappointing since. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Dual winner at around 2m in 2021; not won since and below par on last two starts.
2	2 2nd (2) (17/2 -89%) For Three		8.5 17/2(-89%)																															(2) For Three 17/2, Ended long losing run at Sedgefield (16.8f) in May and was back on track when third over C&D to The Navigator last time. Might have a job on turning the form around with that rival, though. Sedgefield winner in May and closely matched with The Navigator on last month's C&D form.
3	5 3rd (5) (17/2 +15%) Footloose Man		8.5 17/2(+15%)																															(5) Footloose Man 17/2, Yet to match his bumper form since sent hurdling, only seventh at Stratford on return. Still early days, so not one to completely write off in this sphere. Maiden; some fair efforts in novice events but no improvement since going handicapping.
4	4 4th (4) (10/1 -33%) Aviewofthestars		10 10/1(-33%)																															(4) Aviewofthestars 10/1, Two from 2 upon joining Fergal O'Brien during the autumn and took a step firmly back in the right direction on third run for this yard at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) in May. Wasn't in same form at Worcester latest but can't be ruled out. Two wins for Fergal O'Brien last term; some fair runs for this yard; soft going a concern.
5th	8 5th (8) (14/1 +30%) Don't Look Back		14 14/1(+30%)																															(8) Don't Look Back 14/1, A fair performer on the Flat for Lucinda Russell last year but no better than poor form over hurdles for this yard. Could do better now handicapping from a lowly mark. 1-33, that win being over 1m2f on the Flat; some fair form over hurdles; each-way chance.
6th	6 6th (6) (5/1 +50%) Sky Power		5 5/1(+50%)																															(6) Sky Power 5/1, Useful at best on Flat (stays 1½m) but not at that level lately and hasn't shown much as a hurdler. AW Flat winner; modest efforts over hurdles; likely to do better on handicap/stable debut.
7th	3 7th (3) (11/2 -83%) Huit Reflets		5.5 11/2(-83%)																															(3) Huit Reflets 11/2, Good start for this yard since coming from Ireland, placing 4 times prior to getting off the mark in 2m Hexham handicap in June. Another likeable performance when runner-up at Uttoxeter last time and enters calculations once more. Ex-Irish; in good form for new yard, winning in June before good 2nd latest; a possible.
8th	9 8th (9) (18/1 +64%) Coeur Aimant		18 18/1(+64%)																															(9) Coeur Aimant 18/1, Didn't take to chasing following a promising return over hurdles last summer and ran some way below pick of his form in this sphere the last twice. Has plenty to prove. 0-22; tried chasing earlier in the year; well beaten back over hurdles; others stronger.
9th	1 9th (1) (11/4 -69%) The Navigator		2.75 11/4(-69%)																															(1) The Navigator 11/4, Creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (7.8f, good to soft, 9/1) 19 days ago, inadequate test. Comfortable C&D winner on latest hurdling outing and is fancied to get back to winning ways returned to this sphere. C&D winner last month (first win since September 2022); fair Flat run last time; chance.

17:35 Cartmel Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

It is hard to look past THE NAVIGATOR, who scored with the minimum of fuss over C&D when last seen over hurdles and may prove a tough nut to crack, despite a 5lb rise. For Three, who finished third behind the selection here last time out, is entitled to be in the mix once again, while the consistent Huit Reflets has to enter the reckoning following his recent second at Uttoxeter.

THE NAVIGATOR capitalised on a much-reduced mark with plenty in hand over C&D on his latest hurdling outing and he's subsequently showed his wellbeing on the Flat, so he's preferred to Huit Reflets, who has been in good order for a while. For Three, who was third to the selection last time, is another one to consider.

After winning over C&D on his latest hurdles start, THE NAVIGATOR is taken to go in again and beat the in-form Huit Reflets.

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.
