14:02 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (1/2 -25%) Jena D'oudairies	0.5 1/2(-25%)	(6) Jena D'oudairies 1/2, Bumper winner last spring. Fair form when placed in mares' maiden/novice hurdles this winter and while she was disappointing on handicap debut last month, this looks a very good opening. Bumper winner; yet to build on promising hurdle debut but this is weak; upped in trip.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +13%) Bellas Bridge	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(1) Bellas Bridge 7/2, Successful sole outing in Irish points and built on encouraging Rules debut when landing a 9-runner bumper at Ludlow in January 2024. Failed to come close to that level both starts over hurdles, reportedly breaking blood vessel on back of another breathing op at Wetherby on Boxing Day. Hood on. Point/useful bumper winner; things yet to go to plan over hurdles but still early days.
3	2 3rd (2) (16/1 +20%) Benignitas	16 16/1(+20%)	(2) Benignitas 16/1, Modest Irish maiden on Flat in 2021. Has since won in points and displayed some ability when third of 12 at Chepstow (sent off 125/1) last month. Winning pointer; ran okay in a 2m novice hurdle here last month; place claims again.
4	9 4th (9) (66/1 -32%) Edna E Mode	66 66/1(-32%)	(9) Edna E Mode 66/1, Modest maiden on the Flat but displayed no aptitude for hurdling both starts during the autumn for Stuart Edmunds. Visor on first time in this code. Low-grade Flat maiden who hasn't completed either hurdle start; no appeal.
5th	3 5th (3) (40/1 -100%) Carro Attrezzi	40 40/1(-100%)	(3) Carro Attrezzi 40/1, Blue Bresil mare out of a maiden hurdler who stayed 2¾m, herself a half-sister to smart chaser (stayed 21f) Easter Meteor. Yard is hardly a regular source of winning newcomers and others make more appeal. Dam a maiden from a good jumping family; betting to guide on racecourse debut.
6th	4 6th (4) (40/1 -21%) Clover Pass	40 40/1(-21%)	(4) Clover Pass 40/1, Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler but she's shown little in the way of promise herself so far, including in handicaps. Poor hurdle form and shouldn't be good enough back in maiden company.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (11/1 +21%) Gloria Gainer	11 11/1(+21%)	(5) Gloria Gainer 11/1, Fifth foal, half-sister to fairly useful 23f hurdle winner Hi Ho Phoenix (by Phoenix Reach). Dam unraced half-sister to useful chaser (stayed 3½m) Up The Beat. Half-sister to a winning hurdler; dam from good jumping family; starts out in a weak race.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (33/1 -32%) Miss Tiara	33 33/1(-32%)	(7) Miss Tiara 33/1, Kayf Tara mare. Half-sister to modest hurdler Honey Jack. Dam (c123/h120), 2¾m-3¼m hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to dual bumper winner Gaillimh A Chroi. Had wind surgery ahead of debut and didn't show much in a bumper at Exeter last month. Dropped away in the straight in an Exeter bumper (2m, heavy); can do better in time.

14:02 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

JENA D'OUDAIRIES failed to fire at Kempton last time but Paul Nicholls' mare is the one to beat based on her two previous placed efforts, including a good second at Wincanton on Boxing Day. The main threat may prove to be Bellas Bridge, who also disappointed when last seen but the first-time application of a hood may see an improved effort. Benignitas is the pick of the remainder.

JENA D'OUDAIRIES isn't totally bombproof on the back of a tame handicap debut but with credible rivals very thin on the ground, she really should land this. Bellas Bridge would be a major threat if able to get near her bumper form.

Jena D'Oudairies has the best hurdle form but BELLAS BRIDGE was of similar ability in bumpers and may yet do better in this sphere.

14:32 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 24f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
4	4 (4) (125/1 +50%) Minneigh Mozze	125 125/1(+50%)	(4) Minneigh Mozze 125/1, Down the field in 2 bumpers for this yard before making little impact over hurdles for Sheila Lewis. Well held completed start for this yard and impossible to fancy. Ten-race maiden with a basement handicap mark and she's outclassed back in a maiden.
1	2 1st (2) (9/4 +25%) Histrionic	2.25 9/4(+25%)	(2) Histrionic 9/4, Fair in bumpers and showed aptitude for hurdling after 8 months off (had breathing op) fitted with a tongue strap when fourth in 12-runner maiden at Warwick (21f) in December. Upped to this trip and matched that form at Uttoxeter 5 weeks ago (behind Newton Tornado). Retains potential. Just over 3l behind Newton Tornado at Uttoxeter but that effort brings him into this.
2	3 2nd (3) (1/2 +13%) Newton Tornado	0.5 1/2(+13%)	(3) Newton Tornado 1/2, £85,000 buy after winning an Irish point in May and placed all 4 starts over hurdles, failing to land the odds when second at Uttoxeter last month (ahead of Histrionic). Drying ground may help and the one to beat. Performed to a good level over hurdles and held a Cheltenham entry until late.
3	1 3rd (1) (8/1 -60%) Gaelic Rambler	8 8/1(-60%)	(1) Gaelic Rambler 8/1, €80,000 4-y-o, fifth foal, dam (h109), 3m/25f hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/winning chaser in France Aubane (winner at 17f/2¼m). Runner-up both starts in Irish points in spring 2024 and had a breathing op ahead of Rules debut for successful yard. Tongue tie on. Runner-up in both his Irish points, latterly behind one who is now with Paul Nicholls.

14:32 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

NEWTON TORNADO arrives here on the back of three seconds and that includes a narrow defeat over 2m7f at Uttoxeter last time. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give him a big chance here. Histrionic was a place behind the selection at Uttoxeter and could chase him home once again, although Gaelic Rambler has to be noted on his Rules debut.

With drying ground likely to help NEWTON TORNADO see this out, he can get it right at the fifth time of asking. Histrionic finished behind the selection last time and may chase him home again unless Gaelic Rambler is an above-average point recruit.

Gaelic Rambler is the unknown but NEWTON TORNADO should confirm Uttoxeter placings with Histrionic.

15:02 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (4/1 +67%) Ask Brewster	4 4/1(+67%)	(6) Ask Brewster 4/1, Hurdles/point winner who scored on chasing debut at Ludlow (3m) on return. Ran his best race since behind a couple of these at Taunton last month but didn't impress with his jumping. Down another 2 lb. Has ground to make up with two of these on his latest Taunton effort.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/2 -57%) Safe Destination	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(1) Safe Destination 11/2, A reformed character this season, taking handicaps at Southwell and Taunton under this rider while the pair did well again when second contesting a 0-110 for the first time at the latter track 4 weeks ago. Nudged up 1 lb and can give another good account. Probably his best effort yet when second off his career-high mark at Taunton (2m7f).
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 +0%) Militaire	3 3/1(+0%)	(5) Militaire 3/1, No match for a thriving sort at Southwell last time but went about things in a much more likeable manner than on his chasing debut after being strong in the betting. One to consider up in trip. Second over 2m4f latest and on breeding he has every chance of staying this new trip.
4	8 4th (8) (20/1 +20%) Wot You Wearing	20 20/1(+20%)	(8) Wot You Wearing 20/1, Modest handicap hurdler (last 2 wins here) who hasn't really fired of late and has work to do now going chasing. Three-time hurdle winner but out of form in that discipline of late and now goes chasing.
7	7 \|F\| (7) (7/2 +0%) The Midwife	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(7) The Midwife 7/2, Continues in top form, opening account over fences in C&D handicap last month before a fine run under a penalty at Warwick, making a big move into contention despite a series of errors and seeing her race out well. Leading claims. C&D winner and solid effort off this mark when second at Warwick last time.
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (10/3 +17%) Dreams Of Diamonds	3.333333 10/3(+17%)	(9) Dreams Of Diamonds 10/3, Placed all 4 completed starts over fences, albeit a bit flattered by his proximity to the winner at Ffos Las 4 weeks ago, his jumping not so clean as it might have been. Bit more needed. Bang there in 3m handicap chases on his last three starts; unlikely to be far away.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (22/1 +0%) Castle Daragh	22 22/1(+0%)	(3) Castle Daragh 22/1, Point winner who made a successful start under Rules in C&D hunter chase last spring. However, he has failed to complete on all 3 starts this term, including in a handicap at Taunton last time. Has it all to prove. Potentially on a useful mark but easy to have reservations after three pull-ups.

15:02 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The in-form Safe Destination has to be of interest once again, although he could be vulnerable off his current mark. As a result, preference is for MILITAIRE, who was only beaten a length when second over 2m4f at Southwell last time. This step up in trip may bring about the required improvement to go one better. The Midwife is also noted.

THE MIDWIFE has made a fine start over fences and can deliver again at Chepstow. Militaire ran well at Southwell last time and is respected up in trip. Safe Destination is another to consider.

Most of them look handicapped about right but MILITAIRE has the potential to improve for this longer distance.

15:37 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 20f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (5/1 +38%) Greyval	5 5/1(+38%)	(7) Greyval 5/1, Won twice as a juvenile hurdler. 0-9 in handicaps but placed at Wincanton and Fakenham this winter and perhaps 3m stretched her at Ascot last time. Thereabouts back down in trip. Has yet to win a handicap but has threatened and 2m7f looked too far the last time.
2	4 2nd (4) (5/2 +58%) Shantwopointfive	2.5 5/2(+58%)	(4) Shantwopointfive 5/2, Irish point winner who landed a 2¾m Cartmel maiden hurdle last May and resumed progression when readily seeing off 10 rivals in 20.5f Southwell handicap last month. Creditable second of 3 off this mark at Exeter (17f) since. Return to a longer trip will suit. Respected. Bumped into one last time; open to further progress, especially at this trip.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/1 -11%) Dromlac Jury	10 10/1(-11%)	(9) Dromlac Jury 10/1, Quite a costly buy out of points and made a winning handicap bow over hurdles at Ludlow (2m) last March. Similar form when runner-up in 2m handicap chases on first 2 outings this season but weakened out of it at Hereford last time. Now back hurdling after 12 weeks off. Wasn't herself last time over fences; on a competitive mark for this return to hurdling.
4	1 4th (1) (4/1 +67%) Pawapuri	4 4/1(+67%)	(1) Pawapuri 4/1, Useful Flat performer who won twice over hurdles at the end of 2023. Beaten 20 lengths or more in 3 hurdle starts for Nicky Henderson this winter but it was a Grade 2 last time and interesting runner dropped in class on first run for Dan Skelton. Below par this season (highly tried last time) but having her first run for Dan Skelton.
5th	5 5th (5) (4/1 +75%) Molto Bene	4 4/1(+75%)	(5) Molto Bene 4/1, Improved to make a winning reappearance after wind surgery in a big-field C&D race in November. Hasn't managed to build on that in her 3 outings since so her hopes are pinned on the return to Chepstow sparking a revival. Won in a big field here in November but hasn't kicked on from there.
6th	3 6th (3) (20/1 -167%) Ile De Jersey	20 20/1(-167%)	(3) Ile De Jersey 20/1, Hurdle/chase winner but absent since finishing second in a Fontwell handicap hurdle in August 2023. Top yard obviously capable of readying one but betting perhaps the best guide to expectations. Can make a good case for her off this sort of mark but she's been a long time out.
7th	8 7th (8) (8/1 +20%) Current Mood	8 8/1(+20%)	(8) Current Mood 8/1, Better for return when capitalising on a much-reduced mark over fences at Ludlow (3m, good to soft) in October. Creditable efforts next 3 starts (including hurdle) but below-par fifth over fences in cheekpieces (discarded now) last time. Didn't run too badly at Ludlow two runs back on her latest run in this discipline.

15:37 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

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

BLUE LAS has progressed well over hurdles with a victory at Ffos Las backed up by the seven-year-old finishing third in a Grade 2 at Sandown last month. An opening mark of 121 doesn't appear to be overly harsh and she may prove a tough nut to crack. Shantwopointfive performed with credit after an 8lb rise when second at Exeter, while Love Of Neymore isn't discounted dropping back in trip.

The lightly-raced BLUE LAS has the potential for better again now handicapping for the first time and might prove the answer to what looks quite a tight mares event. The return to a longer trip should benefit Shantwopointfive and she's second choice ahead of Love of Neymore. Pawapuri is also an interesting runner on her first outing for Dan Skelton.

This looks competitive. Marginal preference is for SHANTWOPOINTFIVE who bumped into a sharp improver last time.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
4	4 (4) (11/4 +31%) Sao Carlos	2.75 11/4(+31%)	(4) Sao Carlos 11/4, Workmanlike winner of 2m maiden hurdle at Wetherby (heavy) last season. Respectable efforts in defeat in 2m handicap hurdles this winter (third here latest) and should make a chaser. Hasn't looked that well handicapped over hurdles; may make a better chaser.
1	2 1st (2) (9/4 -20%) Torneo	2.25 9/4(-20%)	(2) Torneo 9/4, Flat/hurdle winner who has taken well to fences this season, winning 2m Taunton handicap in January. Creditable third of 7 off this mark at Newcastle (2m, good to soft) since. Likely to go well again. Has shown likeable consistency since sent over fences and has to go well again.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 -67%) Alien Storm	5 5/1(-67%)	(1) Alien Storm 5/1, Pair of Plumpton handicap chase wins this season but needs to bounce back from a below-par run at Musselburgh (distant third) last month. Still on a competitive mark and drying ground will aid his cause no end.
3	5 3rd (5) (40/1 -21%) Dj Pete	40 40/1(-21%)	(5) Dj Pete 40/1, Fair form in bumpers but has yet to better modest form over hurdles, finishing well held in Hereford handicap on last month's return from a long absence for a new yard. Can only watch now chasing. Ability for former yard but tailed off last month after an absence; chasing debut.
4	3 4th (3) (9/4 +18%) The Gypsy Davey	2.25 9/4(+18%)	(3) The Gypsy Davey 9/4, Winless over fences after 7 attempts but has consistently reached the frame, running up to best when third of 6 over 2½m at Ludlow last time. Back down in trip. 0-7 over fences but was a respectable third at Ludlow when last seen in October.

16:12 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

TORNEO has built up a consistent profile over fences and the return to a sounder surface is unlikely to be an inconvenience to Jamie Snowden's gelding in a contest that appears to be winnable on paper. Alien Storm will find this a much easier assignment than the one he was set at Musselburgh latest and is capable of being in the mix, along with chasing debutant Sao Carlos.

TORNEO has a solid record in similar races and might be up to notching a second win of the campaign. Olly Murphy's Sao Carlos might be the one to give him most to do if taking to chasing at the first time of asking.

With the drying ground in his favour ALIEN STORM is narrowly preferred to Torneo. Sao Carlos may make a better chaser.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (8/1 +33%) Yes And Yes	8 8/1(+33%)	(8) Yes And Yes 8/1, Maiden hurdler and ran to similar level when fourth of 8 in handicap at Ludlow (23.8f, heavy) on chase debut last season. After almost a year off, possibly needed the run when filling the same position at Leicester last month, but more needed to get off the mark. Maiden; beaten 14l (3m) and 25l (2m4f; again soft) in his two handicap chases.
2	2 2nd (2) (11/4 +17%) Ideallko	2.75 11/4(+17%)	(2) Ideallko 11/4, Won a pair of handicap chases in 2023/24 and has bettered that form this season, winning his first 3 starts (over hurdles on second occasion). Ran well in defeat when second at Catterick (19.2f, good to soft) last month and he's respected. 4lb than for last month's defeat but was clear of the third and he's bang in form.
3	6 3rd (6) (12/1 +0%) Tribesmans Glory	12 12/1(+0%)	(6) Tribesmans Glory 12/1, Ended losing run with a narrow success over fences at Warwick (20f) in May and ran well on his first 2 starts back from a break. However, his form has gone backwards the last twice, pulled up reverted to hurdling at Taunton (19f, soft) 17 days ago. Has won over fences but last two chase runs not his best, or last time back hurdling.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 +0%) Kap Auteuil	12 12/1(+0%)	(3) Kap Auteuil 12/1, Useful chaser at best but losing run stretches back to March 2022 and, having offered little in a light 2023/24 campaign, he fared no better after another 4 months off when fourth of 5 at Doncaster (20.5f, good) 25 days ago. Others more persuasive. Has looked regressive for a while and didn't jump well when beaten 16l last time.
5th	9 5th (9) (5/2 +75%) El Rojo Grande	2.5 5/2(+75%)	(9) El Rojo Grande 5/2, Winning Irish pointer but didn't offer much over hurdles and failed to complete all 3 starts in 2022/23 (over fences on second 2 occasions). However, after 22 months off he showed more when third in handicap chase at Taunton (18.2f, soft) 40 days ago. One to note. Ran well at Taunton given his absence and having jumped to the left throughout.
6th	4 6th (4) (12/1 +40%) Stony Man	12 12/1(+40%)	(4) Stony Man 12/1, Maiden hurdle winner in spring 2022. Failed to complete next 5 starts but revitalised initially by switch to chasing when fourth at Southwell (24.3f) final outing last season. However, after 7 months off he ran poorly on first start since leaving Gary Hanmer in January. Left former yard for £4,000 before finishing tailed off on stable debut at Market Rasen.
7th	1 7th (1) (5/1 +44%) Monbari	5 5/1(+44%)	(1) Monbari 5/1, Fair form on standout run over hurdles but failed to complete on first 2 starts over fences this season. However, ran one of his better races when fourth of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (19.4f, heavy) 16 days ago. Task is now to build on his latest effort. May prefer softer ground but interesting otherwise after his recent return to form.
8th	10 8th (10) (8/1 +27%) Side Stepper	8 8/1(+27%)	(10) Side Stepper 8/1, Little impact in bumper/first 4 starts over hurdles, but proved a different proposition upped in trip when third on handicap debut at Newton Abbot (26.5f) in June. Placed again on next start, but well beaten at Stratford when last seen in July. Makes chase debut. Still a maiden; chase debut here; his placed efforts over hurdles were at 3m+.

16:47 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

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

PALAWAN DU MAZET proved a different proposition when making a winning chase bow at Taunton last month. A 6lb higher mark could prove to be on the lenient side and he's taken to double his tally. Ideallko was unable to successfully shoulder a 7lb penalty at Catterick 34 days ago, but the quick turnaround may have caught him out. The son of Cokoriko is feared most, ahead of El Rojo Grande.

PALAWAN DU MAZET showed improved form sent chasing when getting off the mark at Taunton last month, form boosted by the runner-up winning next time, so he is taken to follow up with further improvement to come. Ideallko has been thriving this season and isn't taken lightly, while Orbys River could fare better as she goes back up in trip.

Palawan Du Mazet won the race but there's good reason to believe that EL ROJO GRANDE (nap) can leave his Taunton form behind.

1	7 1st (7) (9/1 +78%) Brecharnon	9 9/1(+78%)	(7) Brecharnon 9/1, Goliath Du Berlais gelding. Dam, maiden hurdler in France, half-sister to a couple of useful winners there. The stable has done well in bumpers this season and needs checking out in the betting. 18,000euros foal; dam a maiden half-sister to a useful performer in France; best watched.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 -75%) Grand Garcon	7 7/1(-75%)	(5) Grand Garcon 7/1, Kapgarde gelding. Half-brother to French 2m hurdle winner Gamaline and dual bumper winner Martha Willow. Newcomer representing a top stable. Half-brother to bumper winner and French hurdle winner; yard 33% with bumper runners here.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/4 +64%) Doctor Blue	1.25 5/4(+64%)	(1) Doctor Blue 5/4, Heavily backed and overcame a troubled passage to make a winning debut at Taunton in November. Travelled well long way when fifth of 14 in Ascot listed bumper 3 weeks later and major player with sights lowered after break. Taunton win on debut was predicted by the betting; good 5th in Listed race at Ascot since.
4	4 4th (4) (11/1 -10%) Emerald Breeze	11 11/1(-10%)	(4) Emerald Breeze 11/1, 14/1, shaped with some promise when fourth of 7 on C&D debut (heavy) in January. May do better. Heavy ground perhaps too much of a test when promising 4th here in January; can do better.
5th	9 5th (9) (50/1 -25%) Royale Blue	50 50/1(-25%)	(9) Royale Blue 50/1, Jack Hobbs filly. Dam useful 2½m hurdle/chase winner. Market can guide for this debutante. 1st foal of useful hurdle/chase winner; yard only 1-44 with bumper runners in last 5 years.
6th	6 6th (6) (15/8 +25%) Karonacho	1.875 15/8(+25%)	(6) Karonacho 15/8, €200,000 purchase who produced a promising first effort when second of 11 at Uttoxeter (good to soft) in November. Given a bit of time since. Considered. Inexperience cost him dear when 2nd at Uttoxeter in November; should know more this time.
7th	8 7th (8) (25/1 0%) Let's Getaway Love	25 25/1(0%)	(8) Let's Getaway Love 25/1, Getaway filly. Dam, fairly useful hurdle winner around 2m (stayed 2½m), sister to useful hurdle winner/very smart chaser (stayed 3¼m) Fiddlerontheroof. Stable 5-25 in bumpers this season so this newcomer needs a market check. £5,000 3yo; dam a well-related hurdle winner; betting instructive on debut.
8th	3 8th (3) (125/1 -89%) Aureus	125 125/1(-89%)	(3) Aureus 125/1, 20/1, no obvious promise on Fontwell debut in January. Tailed-off seventh in a Fontwell bumper (2m1f, soft) seven weeks ago; hard to fancy.

17:17 Chepstow NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Having showed signs of inexperience in the final furlongs at Uttoxeter in November, KARONACHO should have learned plenty from that opening second. The five-year-old should prove tough to beat if finding any improvement and a first career victory may beckon. Penalised winner Doctor Blue will find this easier than when fifth in a Listed bumper at Ascot 86 days ago and he's a viable alternative, along with the Paul Nicholls-trained newcomer Grand Garcon.

An interesting bumper to conclude. There was plenty to like about the way DOCTOR BLUE travelled for a long way in an Ascot listed bumper in December and he can defy a penalty back in a lower grade. Karonacho made an encouraging start to his career when runner-up at Uttoxeter in November and is second choice ahead of Dan Skelton Worcester winner Tormund Giantsbane. The newcomers also need monitoring in the betting, notably Grand Garcon.

Karonacho can improve from his debut run but DOCTOR BLUE is down in grade and looks up to defying a penalty.
