Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (5/1 -82%) Minella Study	5 5/1(-82%)	(1) Minella Study 5/1, Improved when suited by a positive ride, showing a willing attitude to win the Wensleydale Juvenile Hurdle (Listed) at Wetherby by 3/4l last time. Effective at 2m and acts on good ground. Progressive in both codes and a big player under a penalty. Made it 2-2 over hurdles with Listed win at Wetherby and he's a major player.
2	9 2nd (9) (10/1 +29%) Winston Junior	10 10/1(+29%)	(9) Winston Junior 10/1, Very promising debut when second, beaten 2 1/4l, in a juvenile hurdle at Fontwell last time. Effective at 2m and his debut form has been franked. More to come given his useful flat form. Useful Flat maiden who was a promising second on hurdle debut and is open to improvement.
3	2 3rd (2) (4/6 +78%) One Horse Town	0.666667 4/6(+78%)	(2) One Horse Town 4/6, Improved again up in grade when suited by an aggressive ride to win the JCB Triumph Trial Juvenile Hurdle (Grade 2) here by 4l last time. Effective at 2m on good ground. A useful summer recruit over hurdles who sets the standard despite modest depth to the form. Made all in Grade 2 here four weeks ago; 4-4 over hurdles and he's a leading contender.
4	10 4th (10) (22/1 -10%) Wolf Rayet	22 22/1(-10%)	(10) Wolf Rayet 22/1, Bit green but a promising hurdle debut after a break when second, beaten 11l, in a juvenile hurdle at Chepstow last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time and returns from a short break. Stays 2m, acts on heavy and good ground, and should improve with experience. Encouraging second on hurdle debut but a chunk of improvement is necessary today.
5th	6 5th (6) (66/1 -164%) Crooked Path	66 66/1(-164%)	(6) Crooked Path 66/1, Possibly challenged a bit too early when third, beaten 6 1/4l, in a maiden hurdle at Galway on his most recent run. Effective at 2m with cut and on good ground. In form but needs a bit more to get off the mark. Has shown promise over hurdles but 0-10 overall and improvement is needed today.
6th	7 6th (7) (12/1 -50%) Macshadow Des Crai	12 12/1(-50%)	(7) Macshadow Des Crai 12/1, Made a promising debut when fourth, beaten 4l, in a juvenile hurdle at Dieppe last time. Effective at 2m and acts on soft ground. His French bumper form has since been boosted in the UK over hurdles. Made the frame on all three starts in France; has joined leading stable for British career.
7th	4 7th (4) (40/1 +0%) Westlain	40 40/1(+0%)	(4) Westlain 40/1, The yard has won the last two runnings of this race. Quickened and did it readily when winning a juvenile hurdle at Fontwell by 12l last time. Should stay 2m and is progressing, but more is needed to follow up. Easy win at 66-1 at Fontwell; tougher task here but trainer has fine recent record in race.
8th	3 8th (3) (28/1 -180%) Cinammon Coco	28 28/1(-180%)	(3) Cinammon Coco 28/1, Improved on his flat return when winning a maiden at Dundalk by 1/2l last time. Effective from 10f to 12f and acts on good ground. In good form in the spring when last seen on the flat and fit from hurdling, he looks a threat. One win from his four hurdle runs; place claims but improvement needed to come out on top.
8	8 \|F\| (8) (14/1 +13%) Matiwo	14 14/1(+13%)	(8) Matiwo 14/1, Outpaced but promising on hurdle debut when third, beaten 12l, in a juvenile hurdle at Chepstow. Trainer in form. Returns from a short break and is effective at 2m on good ground. Debut form has been franked and could progress. 40-1 third on debut; sizeable step forward needed but trainer does well with this type.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (16/1 -256%) Arnolphe	16 16/1(-256%)	(5) Arnolphe 16/1, Almanzor gelding; half-brother to Avenue Kennedy, useful at 17f; tongue-tie first time; top trainer; of interest if money arrives. From a talented family; represents top trainer and could have a part to play on debut.

12:10 Cheltenham (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

ONE HORSE TOWN has improved plenty since going hurdling and extended his unbeaten NH record to four here last month. Connections have kept it simple by letting him make the running on his last couple of starts and similar tactics are likely to be in place once again. Minella Study did well to recover from a mistake to land the Wensleydale against a well-regarded type, but this is undoubtedly tougher. Macshadow Des Crai finished fourth in an AQPS race at Vichy behind Macktoad, who was impressive at Sandown last week, and is entitled to respect along with Arnolphe.

Having made it 4-4 over hurdles with a Grade 2 win here last month, ONE HORSE TOWN can maintain his unbeaten record over jumps.

1	6 1st (6) (7/1 -56%) Zertakt	7 7/1(-56%)	(6) Zertakt 7/1, Travelled well and kicked clear but fitness gave way late when unlucky, running to form when beaten 2¼l off 114 at Newcastle last time. Effective from 3m to 3m5f, acts on soft and good to soft; consistent and should come on for that run. 0-6 over fences but consistent and there's every chance he'll be thereabouts.
2	5 2nd (5) (8/1 +20%) Holokea	8 8/1(+20%)	(5) Holokea 8/1, Scored by 3l off 112 at Ffos Las on his penultimate start, then improved again up in trip when second beaten 3½l off 117 last time. Effective up to 3m2f and acts on soft and good; progressive staying chaser for whom a stiff track suits. 6yo who has improved for fences and the stiff finish should be right up his street.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/1 +0%) As The Fella Says	7 7/1(+0%)	(8) As The Fella Says 7/1, Returned to form down in grade on chase debut back from a break when beaten a length off 114 at Southwell last time. Effective from 2m to 2½m and may have a bit more to offer over fences. Lightly raced 6yo who was 2nd on chase debut; in excellent hands to continue to progress.
4	1 4th (1) (2/1 +0%) The Jukebox Kid	2 2/1(+0%)	(1) The Jukebox Kid 2/1, Did it comfortably, improving on his chase debut when landing a handicap by 4l off 122 at Carlisle last time. Effective at 2½m and acts on good to soft; progressive and likely to improve further over fences, with 3m within reach. Impressed on last month's chase/handicap debut and a 9lb rise may not stop him today.
5th	3 5th (3) (4/1 +11%) First Confession	4 4/1(+11%)	(3) First Confession 4/1, Improved from debut, just tiring late after a series of errors having done plenty early when 6l third in a handicap chase at Kempton last time. Effective at 2½m, acts on good to soft and good; progressing over fences. Promising 3rd on Carlisle chase debut; didn't build on it at Kempton but retains potential.
6th	7 6th (7) (15/2 +63%) Risk De Pluie	7.5 15/2(+63%)	(7) Risk De Pluie 15/2, Ran to form when second beaten 5l in a handicap chase at Lingfield latest. Effective from 2½m to 2¾m and acts on soft and good; a consistent type. 3m point winner for whom today's test of stamina could unlock some improvement; chance.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (9/1 +0%) Doughmore Bay	9 9/1(+0%)	(2) Doughmore Bay 9/1, Outpaced but appreciated a stiff test when finishing 12l third in a handicap hurdle at Windsor on his most recent start proving wellbeing after lay off. Trainer in form and on a good mark on best hurdles efforts. Top jockey booked for chase debut and very interesting. Returned from long absence with encouraging run at Windsor; handy mark for chase debut.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (25/1 +0%) Hillcrest	25 25/1(+0%)	(4) Hillcrest 25/1, Had every chance but below form when 21l third in a handicap chase at Warwick last time. Effective from 2m4f to 3m and goes well with cut; formerly smart and needs to jump better. Returned from very long absence last season and unable to get competitive over fences.

12:40 Cheltenham (Class 3) 25f Race Class Flow

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

THE JUKEBOX KID made a successful chasing bow when getting the better of First Confession (third) at Carlisle last month. Despite a 9lb rise from the handicapper, there is every chance a step up in trip could unlock further improvement from Ben Pauling's charge. First Confession has since finished third again at Kempton and softer conditions on this occasion appear likely to aid his cause. Zertakt and As The Fella Says are others to consider.

Topweight THE JUKEBOX KID created an excellent impression on his chase debut at Carlisle last month and he can make it 2-2 over fences.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (12/1 +25%) Party Vibes	12 12/1(+25%)	(6) Party Vibes 12/1, Made mistakes and needed the run when 33l third in a Bangor-on-Dee handicap hurdle last time, likely a prep for chasing; fair mark on Listed form but unreliable. Dual chase winner last season; player were she to return to her peak form.
2	8 2nd (8) (5/1 +0%) Theonewedreamof	5 5/1(+0%)	(8) Theonewedreamof 5/1, Travelled well and was well treated off an unchanged mark when landing a handicap by 2 1/2l off 112 at Exeter last time. Effective from 2m3f to 3m; in fine form for her new yard. Ex-Irish; up 5lb after Exeter 3m win but never better and should go well again.
3	11 3rd (11) (10/1 -43%) Realta Liath	10 10/1(-43%)	(11) Realta Liath 10/1, Did it comfortably and improved when dropped in grade on her chase debut, landing a Fontwell handicap by 6 1/2l off 104 last time. Trainer in form; effective at about 2 1/2m, acts on good to soft; steadily progressing. Won handicap at Fontwell (2m3f, good) in good style on chase debut but jumped to her right.
4	1 4th (1) (12/1 +25%) Ruby Island	12 12/1(+25%)	(1) Ruby Island 12/1, Scored by 7l off 118 at Ayr on her penultimate start; every chance but a bit below form when fourth, beaten 9l off 125 last time. Effective from 2m to 2m4f and acts on soft and good ground; generally a progressive type. Has raised her game each season, over fences this term; interesting back up in trip.
5th	15 5th (15) (17/2 +15%) Kalista Love	8.5 17/2(+15%)	(15) Kalista Love 17/2, Ran to form on her chase debut when landing a Warwick handicap by 3/4l off 104 last time. Effective around 2 1/2m, acts on soft and good to soft; progressing and should appreciate a stiffer track. First go over fences when she came from off pace to win at Warwick (2m4f on good to soft).
6th	9 6th (9) (18/1 +28%) Batwomen	18 18/1(+28%)	(9) Batwomen 18/1, Had too much to do and was not asked a serious question when 10l third in a Lingfield handicap chase last time. Effective at around 2 1/2m, acts on good to soft; open to plenty of improvement with experience, well treated on hurdle form and looks a big player/ Respectable, never-dangerous third on chase debut at Lingfield; this demands a lot more.
7th	7 7th (7) (10/1 +38%) Me Wee Bonnie Lass	10 10/1(+38%)	(7) Me Wee Bonnie Lass 10/1, Outpaced and never put into the race but ran to form over the longer trip when beaten 9l in a Naas handicap chase last time. Cheekpieces first time; effective from 2m to 2m4f, acts on soft and good ground; fair mark and could do better if ridden more positively. 3-7 over hurdles, 0-5 chasing; gave renewed hope in this sphere last time; first headgear.
8th	14 8th (14) (16/1 -33%) It's Easy	16 16/1(-33%)	(14) It's Easy 16/1, Did it easily and improved back on testing ground, coping best with conditions to win a Bangor-on-Dee handicap by 40l off 103 last time. Effective at 2m4f, acts on any ground; consistent and still well treated off her revised mark. 2-23 over fences and it looks as if soft or preferably heavy ground is a necessity.
9th	2 9th (2) (22/1 -22%) Georgi Girl	22 22/1(-22%)	(2) Georgi Girl 22/1, Travelled well but found little and needed the run when fourth, beaten 34l, in a Kempton handicap chase last time. Effective at about 2m4f, acts on soft and good ground; showed fair spring form but can be a weak finisher. Concern about her jumping last term and it was clearly a problem on last month's return.
12	12 \|F\| (12) (28/1 +0%) Sunday Soldier	28 28/1(+0%)	(12) Sunday Soldier 28/1, Made mistakes and was outpaced when below form, fourth beaten 22l, in a Warwick handicap chase last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m; flattered by earlier Listed form. Well below form back over fences on last two outings but she is down to a good mark.
10th	3 10th (3) (25/1 -79%) Ilovethenightlife	25 25/1(-79%)	(3) Ilovethenightlife 25/1, Raced lazily and was outpaced, perhaps finding the ground a bit testing when second, beaten 40l, in a Bangor-on-Dee handicap chase last time. Blinkers first time; effective at 2m and best on decent ground; on last winning mark and in fair form. Jumping to her right was a big problem at Bangor latest; different headgear is given a go.
11th	13 11th (13) (11/4 +39%) She Is For Me Boys	2.75 11/4(+39%)	(13) She Is For Me Boys 11/4, Well handicapped on hurdle form, jumped well and won comfortably when up in trip on her chase debut, taking a Kempton handicap by 5 1/2l off 104 last time. Effective around 2 1/2m, acts on good ground; progressive with more to come over fences. Up 7lb and into a much more competitive race but this lightly raced 6yo looks promising.
12th	5 12th (5) (14/1 -27%) Greyval	14 14/1(-27%)	(5) Greyval 14/1, Stepped up in trip and didn't stay on her chase debut when second, beaten 17l, in a Huntingdon beginners chase. Suited by 2m4f over hurdles and acts on soft and good ground; consistent hurdler who may improve dropped back in trip over fences. Probably stretched by the extended 2m7f when second of four on chase debut latest.
13th	10 13th (10) (80/1 -60%) Lady Jago	80 80/1(-60%)	(10) Lady Jago 80/1, Disappointing on her hurdles return when well beaten in a Bangor-on-Dee handicap hurdle last time. Best around 2 1/2m and may need to drop in the weights for her new yard though return to chasing a positive. 3-11 chasing; tailed off over hurdles latest and good ground would seemingly be preferable.
16	16 \|PU\| (16) (20/1 +20%) Ostrava Du Berlais	20 20/1(+20%)	(16) Ostrava Du Berlais 20/1, Flattened out after a late error when back from a break, finishing 13l third in a Carlisle handicap chase last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m; generally consistent. 2-17 over fences; probably stays 2m4f; more to prove on worse than good to soft.

13:15 Cheltenham (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

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

She Is For Me Boys built on her novice hurdle victories at the start of the current season when switched to chasing at Kempton last month. The six-year-old remains on a fair mark after going up 7lb, but THEONEWEDREAMOF is preferred. Runner-up on her first start for Dan Skelton at Chepstow, she went one better when tackling 3m at Exeter and the drop back in trip on a stiff track is likely to play to her strengths. Realta Liath, Kalista Love and It's Easy appeal most of the remainder.

The experienced THEONEWEDREAMOF has hit new heights for her new stable and scored in taking style last time. Ruby Island is next.

1	11 1st (11) (33/1 -18%) Glengouly	33 33/1(-18%)	(11) Glengouly 33/1, Travelled well but tired up the hill after a bad error, having gone too fast, and did best of those up with the strong pace when fourth, beaten 4 1/4l, in a handicap chase here last time. Effective from 2m to 3m, handles cut, and is well treated on old form. Top jockey booked and not dismissed from out of weights. Good runs in defeat on his last two starts but probably vulnerable from out of the weights.
2	7 2nd (7) (7/2 +22%) Vincenzo	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(7) Vincenzo 7/2, Had every chance and ran to form, just flattening out late up the hill back from a break when second, beaten 4l, in the Paddy Power Gold Cup Handicap Chase here last time. Effective between 2m and 2 1/2m and steadily progressing. Runner-up in Paddy Power Gold Cup here last month & that form has been franked; key player.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/4 +31%) Jagwar	2.75 11/4(+31%)	(2) Jagwar 11/4, Travelled strongly, did it cosily and showed a game attitude when landing a Plate Handicap Chase by 3l off 139 here last time. Likes the track and is well handicapped up 9lb. Returning from a long layoff; effective at 2 1/2m and looks hugely progressive. Could prove a class above these. Won the Plate at the Festival; could still be well handicapped despite a 9lb rise.
4	10 4th (10) (5/1 +9%) Kim Roque	5 5/1(+9%)	(10) Kim Roque 5/1, Travelled well and ran to form but tired late up the hill after a late error when beaten 3l off 122 here last time. Effective up to 2m6f and handles soft ground; ex-French runner with more to come for this yard. Ex-French 5yo; promising stable debut here last month and he may well have more to offer.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/2 -22%) Hoe Joly Smoke	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(9) Hoe Joly Smoke 11/2, Not given a hard time behind stablemate and looked in need of further when third, beaten 6 1/4l, in the Paddy Power Gold Cup Handicap Chase here most recently. Effective at 3m and suited by good ground; improving and can do better but possibly when stepped back up in trip. Third in the Paddy Power Gold Cup here last month and every chance he'll be in the mix.
6th	4 6th (4) (14/1 -17%) Imperial Saint	14 14/1(-17%)	(4) Imperial Saint 14/1, Made mistakes and needed the run when comfortably held in the Old Roan Limited Handicap Chase (Grade 2) at Aintree last time. Effective from 2m to 3m and a consistent performer but mark probably about right. Progressive last season, when running well over C&D; not ruled out each-way.
7th	6 7th (6) (12/1 -9%) Il Ridoto	12 12/1(-9%)	(6) Il Ridoto 12/1, Stable has won two of the last nine renewals of this race. Did too much too soon when well beaten in the Paddy Power Gold Cup Handicap Chase here last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and handles soft and good ground. A veteran who has been inconsistent lately. He has lots of good course form and is a possible player now back off last winning mark.
8th	3 8th (3) (9/1 -20%) Colonel Harry	9 9/1(-20%)	(3) Colonel Harry 9/1, Well handicapped and returned to form down in grade under a ground-saving ride on the inside when landing the Grand Sefton Handicap Chase by 2l off 144 at Aintree last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and suited by some give; well treated on novice form and goes well fresh. Reappeared with 2l win in the Grand Sefton at Aintree and a 4lb rise is far from harsh.
9th	5 9th (5) (18/1 -29%) Martator	18 18/1(-29%)	(5) Martator 18/1, Yard won this last year. Outpaced but flew home and returned to form off a reduced mark when beaten 2 1/4l off 139 at Ascot last time. Effective between 2m and 2 1/2m, handles any ground but best on good; well handicapped and may build on that revival. Strong finish for second over 2m1f at Ascot three weeks ago and he's not discounted.
10th	8 10th (8) (22/1 -57%) Es Perfecto	22 22/1(-57%)	(8) Es Perfecto 22/1, Pulled up in the Paddy Power Gold Cup Handicap Chase here last time. Effective at 2 1/2m and goes well here but mark looks about right. Some good efforts in defeat here and he may have needed the run in Paddy Power Gold Cup.

13:50 Cheltenham (Class 1) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Jagwar has improved no less than 30lb since being switched to fences, winning four of his five starts, with his best performance coming when victorious in the Plate at the Festival. He is sure to have his supporters but the vote goes to HOE JOLY SMOKE, who is taken to reverse form with Vincenzo from the Paddy Power Gold Cup here last month. Dan Skelton's charge finished just over two lengths behind the runner-up on that occasion but is 2lb better off and, with Harry Skelton back in the plate, he is the one to side with.

The impressive novice campaign of JAGWAR (nap) culminated in a win at the Festival here in March and he can make a winning comeback.

Effective around 2m and acts on soft and good ground; has more to offer over fences with winter form franked. Made it 3-3 over fences when defying absence at Haydock; could have more left in the tank.
2	1 2nd (1) (9/2 -29%) Jpr One	4.5 9/2(-29%)	(1) Jpr One 9/2, Ran to current form when beaten 2 1/4l off a mark of 151 at Ascot last time. Trainer in form. Effective at 2m and suited by a sound surface; looks on a level mark now. Returned to form when third in these cheekpieces at Ascot; could be thereabouts once more.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/2 +53%) Triple Trade	3.5 7/2(+53%)	(8) Triple Trade 7/2, Ran to form appreciating the stiff test down in trip when landing a handicap by a neck off 123 here last time. Trainer in form. Effective at 2-2 1/2m and remains well treated on old form. Exploited reduced mark here on reappearance; remains well treated on old form back up 5lb.
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 +22%) Gunsight Ridge	7 7/1(+22%)	(2) Gunsight Ridge 7/1, Needed the run when fourth, beaten 23l in a handicap chase here last time. Effective at 2m and should come on for the return, though the mark looks stiff enough. Failed to see out 2m4f here on reappearance; firmly in calculations back to optimum trip.
5th	3 5th (3) (11/1 +8%) Sans Bruit	11 11/1(+8%)	(3) Sans Bruit 11/1, Keen and did plenty early when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Ascot last time. Effective at 2m on good ground and a bold jumper, but mark probably stiff enough. Not disgraced on either run last month; has come good in April in each of the last seasons.
6th	7 6th (7) (18/1 +64%) Joker De Mai	18 18/1(+64%)	(7) Joker De Mai 18/1, Pulled up in a hunter chase at Stratford last time. Effective at 2-2 1/2m and acts with cut. Form tailed off in spring but remains fairly treated on best form. Won hunter chase in March; probably needs a career-best on this stable debut.
7th	9 7th (9) (25/1 +11%) Dr T J Eckleburg	25 25/1(+11%)	(9) Dr T J Eckleburg 25/1, Outpaced and unable to go the gallop when well beaten in a handicap chase here last time. Yard won this race last year. Usually held up; suited by 2m with cut; generally consistent but needs a strong pace to aim at. Two wins last season but soundly beaten here on both outings this autumn.

14:25 Cheltenham (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Despite taking a keen hold, David's Well made the perfect return to action to produce a career best at Haydock last month and he needs to be taken seriously with Harry Cobden booked. Two-time Cheltenham winner Triple Trade remains on a workable mark and is noted, but his stablemate JPR ONE might be the one. Joe Tizzard's eight-year-old ran a fine race in first-time cheekpieces to finish third at Ascot and the assessor might have been kind to only put him up 2lb.

The novice COUNTRY MILE was looming large until a bad mistake two out here in October and is taken to make amends today.

1	3 1st (3) (4/1 +43%) Carlenrig	4 4/1(+43%)	(3) Carlenrig 4/1, Very promising debut when second, beaten 3l in a maiden hurdle at Chepstow; had too much to do behind the all-the-way winner and was not given a hard race. Effective at 2 1/2m and should improve for the experience, likely to get 3m. Shaped nicely behind an odds-on winner when second at Chepstow (2m4f) on rules debut.
2	6 2nd (6) (6/1 -71%) They Call Me Hugo	6 6/1(-71%)	(6) They Call Me Hugo 6/1, Travelled well and made a very promising debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las by 2 1/4l last time. Effective at 2 1/2m on soft ground; now with a top yard and respected up in trip and class. 2m4f Ffos Las win on rules debut looked promising; second and third have dented the form.
3	1 3rd (1) (11/10 +20%) Conman John	1.1 11/10(+20%)	(1) Conman John 11/10, Improved up in trip when winning a novice hurdle here by 3l last time; effective from 2 1/2m to 3m. Looks useful, with more to come, and is the one to beat on form. 2-2 over hurdles, making most here (3m, good) last time and asserting in grand style.
4	7 4th (7) (18/1 +45%) Intosomethinggood	18 18/1(+45%)	(7) Intosomethinggood 18/1, Outpaced and outclassed when well beaten in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle (Grade 2) here last time. Probably best around 2 1/2m; had been progressive until latest and looks vulnerable again at Graded level. 3-8 hurdling; tailed off in Grade 2 here latest; first crack at 3m but probably vulnerable.
5th	4 5th (4) (13/2 +64%) Kasino Des Mottes	6.5 13/2(+64%)	(4) Kasino Des Mottes 13/2, Needed every yard down in trip and improved for debut experience when winning a novice hurdle at Kempton by 1l last time. Trainer in form; effective from 2m5f to 3m on good ground and progressing with more to come as a stayer. Kempton 2m5f win; needs much more to overturn earlier 20l deficit here with Conman John.
6th	2 6th (2) (25/1 -25%) Big Cadillac	25 25/1(-25%)	(2) Big Cadillac 25/1, Outpaced on a modest debut when beaten 6l in a maiden hurdle at Ffos Las last time; second run after a wind operation. Effective over 2 1/2m and a point and bumper winner, but has plenty to find. Point/bumper wins; put in his place in maiden hurdle at Ffos Las (2m4f, soft); 3m can help.
7th	5 7th (5) (10/1 -67%) Reckless Spending	10 10/1(-67%)	(5) Reckless Spending 10/1, Outpaced but promising debut when 3 1/4l third in a maiden hurdle at Ascot most recently. Effective over 2 1/2m on good ground; bumper form has been franked over hurdles and he should improve for the step up in trip. 3rd of four at Ascot (2m3f) looks serious form; brings potential, including for this trip.

15:00 Cheltenham (Class 1) 23f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Point-to-point winner They Call Me Hugo travelled strongly to make a successful debut under Rules at Ffos Las and could have any amount of improvement to come, especially now stepping up in trip. However, it's hard to oppose CONMAN JOHN, who is two from two over timber and gave a beating to Kasino Des Mottes (fifth) at this venue in October. That earned him an official rating of 135 and if he runs to that level, he will prove hard to beat. Reckless Spending is expected to build on his third at Ascot and isn't ruled out.

While CONMAN JOHN does not have a monopoly on potential, he made much the strongest impression with his 3m win here in October.

Never put into contention and needed the run when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle last time. Effective from 2 1/2m to 3m but has been out of form since a layoff. Good record here and handicapper has relented. Won this race two years ago; absent 418 days and soundly beaten on all three starts since.
2	4 2nd (4) (85/40 +36%) Siog Geal	2.125 85/40(+36%)	(4) Siog Geal 85/40, Ran to form when beaten 2l off 122 at Carlisle on reappearance. Effective at around 2 1/2m and may have more to offer over 3m in time. Should come on for that latest outing and well treated on strong spring form. Won the 2m4f mares' final at Newbury and good reappearance third at Carlisle; player.
3	7 3rd (7) (13/2 +28%) Game Colours	6.5 13/2(+28%)	(7) Game Colours 13/2, Needed the run and ran well to a point when 21l third in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell last time. Effective at around 2m, acts on soft and good ground, and should improve for that latest outing. 2nd of 16 here (2m1f, good) in April; wind surgery before a heavy defeat four weeks ago.
4	10 4th (10) (33/1 -32%) Pismo Beach	33 33/1(-32%)	(10) Pismo Beach 33/1, Travelled well but failed to find much when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Warwick last time. Usually held up, effective around 2m4f, and acts on good to soft and good ground. Has potential from this mark but needs to bounce back. 3rd to Siog Geal at Newbury in April (better than bare result); flopped latest; 5lb wrong.
5th	1 5th (1) (11/4 -38%) Jubilee Alpha	2.75 11/4(-38%)	(1) Jubilee Alpha 11/4, Travelled well but had too much to do after a bad error at a key stage when beaten a length off 137 at Wincanton last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m, acts on soft and good ground, and should come on for that run. C&D win in April; 2nd to Sweet Caryline at Wincanton, with a blunder two out; good chance.
6th	8 6th (8) (11/2 -65%) Sweet Caryline	5.5 11/2(-65%)	(8) Sweet Caryline 11/2, Won a Mares' Handicap Hurdle by a length off 107 over 2m5f at Wincanton last time. Effective at 2m and just about gets 2 1/2m. Suited by decent ground and still progressing, though her revised mark looks demanding. On four-timer; keeps finding extra but move away from good ground gives her more to prove.
7th	6 7th (6) (16/1 +11%) Pretending	16 16/1(+11%)	(6) Pretending 16/1, Yard has won two of the last five runnings of this race. Too free and needed the run when comfortably held in a Listed Mares' Hurdle at Kempton last time. Trainer in form, effective around 2 1/2m, and current mark looks about right. Third of 16 over C&D in April was creditable, in first-time cheekpieces which return today.
8th	9 8th (9) (25/1 -25%) Lagoon Nebula	25 25/1(-25%)	(9) Lagoon Nebula 25/1, Off a short break after finishing down the field in a handicap at The Curragh last time with no obvious excuse. Wears a hood for the first time and has a bit to find to be competitive though Irish raider did win here in the spring. Won here (2m1f, good; 28-1) in April, travelling best then having to battle to regain lead.
9th	3 9th (3) (40/1 -60%) Mermaids Cave	40 40/1(-60%)	(3) Mermaids Cave 40/1, Stepped up in trip but may not have stayed when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Ascot last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and was progressive until that latest effort but vulnerable in this grade. Seven wins in 18 months but some heavy defeats too, including over C&D and latest outing.

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

JUBILEE ALPHA was all over Sweet Caryline when making a shuddering mistake at the second-last at Wincanton last month. With a clearer round on this occasion, Paul Nicholls' C&D winner is expected to turn the tables and get her head back in front. Siog Geal has plenty of ability and produced a good effort when third at Carlisle on her return, so it would be no surprise to see her feature. Pretending is another to keep an eye on.

Fergal O'Brien's SIOG GEAL can battle her way to the win ahead of Jubilee Alpha. Lagoon Nebula could be a surprise package.

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.
