1	4 1st (4) (15/2 -150%) Silver In Disguise		7.5 15/2(-150%)																															(4) Silver In Disguise 15/2, More miss than hit since scoring at Wetherby last spring but, having slipped back to that winning mark, he's dangerous to discount. Ran well in the autumn, after a break, but has lost his way a bit since.
2	11 2nd (11) (9/1 +64%) Johnny B		9 9/1(+64%)																															(11) Johnny B 9/1, Opened chase account at the second attempt over C&D in April 2022 and gained breakthrough success over hurdles at Wincanton (24.7f, heavy) in December. However, he has followed that with a string of inauspicious performances. Dominated this race in 2022 but has a very mixed record and is always hard to predict.
3	7 3rd (7) (15/2 +38%) Aquila Sky		7.5 15/2(+38%)																															(7) Aquila Sky 15/2, Fairly useful hurdler at his best and appeared to be working his way back to form when third in a handicap chase at Catterick (25.2f, soft) last month. Wasn't in the same form at Huntingdon subsequently, though, and he's likely to come up short once more. Seemingly back in form two starts ago; didn't jump well enough last time; still considered.
4	2 4th (2) (8/1 -14%) Track And Trace		8 8/1(-14%)																															(2) Track And Trace 8/1, Hurdles winner at Warwick in September and further improvement over fences since, scoring at Catterick in January. However, pulled up both subsequent starts and he now has a bit to prove. Pulled up twice since winning Catterick marathon in January; needs to bounce back.
5th	8 5th (8) (13/2 +68%) Ballydisco		6.5 13/2(+68%)																															(8) Ballydisco 13/2, Hit the target twice off higher marks last spring, including over 23.6f here, but he has failed to fire in this sphere and over fences in recent months. Won over hurdles here a year ago but out of form over hurdles and fences this season.
6th	1 6th (1) (14/1 -100%) No No Maestro		14 14/1(-100%)																															(1) No No Maestro 14/1, Built up a good strike rate for this yard and gained fourth success over fences at Uttoxeter last June. Ran badly on his return at Taunton, even allowing for the fact that he was returning from a 9-month absence, but he would be a danger to all if bouncing back. Career-best form when winning last summer but last month's reappearance was was poor.
7th	6 7th (6) (8/1 +43%) Pottlerath		8 8/1(+43%)																															(6) Pottlerath 8/1, Successful 3 times over hurdles during 2022 and sprouted wings over fences at the start of last summer, completing a hat-trick at Bangor. Possibly needed the run back from 5 months off in a Taunton handicap hurdle last month but looks vulnerable back in this sphere in any case. Won three good-ground chases last spring (2m7f-3m1f); high on the list.
8th	12 8th (12) (10/1 +0%) Leading Swoop		10 10/1(+0%)																															(12) Leading Swoop 10/1, Fair maiden hurdler who was all the better for return when third at Lingfield. Decent start over fences when second at Fontwell (21.6f, soft) but disappointing both starts since. Made quite pleasing chase debut in January but disappointed twice last month.
5	5 |F| (5) (22/1 -214%) Max Dynamo		22 22/1(-214%)																															(5) Max Dynamo 22/1, Wide-margin winner of a C&D handicap last February and positive start to this season when runner-up at Fontwell in November. Hasn't come close to matching that form in 3 subsequent outings but the handicapper has at least cut him some slack. Wide-margin C&D winner last season; didn't fire last month but could have a say here.
9	9 |PU| (9) (9/2 +0%) Lyrical Genius		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(9) Lyrical Genius 9/2, Has an unattractive style (takes plenty of riding) and record stands at 0-10 over fences. On the upside he has dipped to a career-low mark and shaped as though this drop back in trip would be a good thing when third over 30.6f here last month. Ran well in soft-ground marathon here last month and good ground also suits; good chance.
10	10 |PU| (10) (12/1 +14%) Haut Folin		12 12/1(+14%)																															(10) Haut Folin 12/1, Forged clear to land a gamble at Ffos Las on return in November and placed on his next 3 outings. However, form has dipped in a major way of late and others make more appeal. Clear winner off this mark in November but is unreliable and seems best on slow ground.
3	3 |PU| (3) (14/1 -75%) Innisfree Lad		14 14/1(-75%)																															(3) Innisfree Lad 14/1, Back to winning ways at Doncaster in December and ran with credit when second at Hereford (25.2f, soft) in February. Latest fourth of 11 at Plumpton wasn't a bad effort either but he's not the most reliable on balance. Inconsistent nowadays but has conditions to suit; no surprise if he runs well.

17:10 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

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

LYRICAL GENIUS may be winless in 10 starts over fences but his most recent effort here over further was promising and dropping back to a trip over which he has been narrowly denied on a couple of occasions could prove ideal. A winner at Catterick in January, Track And Trace is a key player if bouncing back to that form, while the same can be said of Aquila Sky, who is a player on the pick of his hurdles form.

LYRICAL GENIUS clearly has his limitations but this could be the day when he finally delivers the goods. The 7-y-o left the impression that this drop back in distance would be in his favour when third over a marathon trip here last month and he's been eased another 2 lb since. If No No Maestro returns to form he would be a serious player, while the veteran Max Dynamo also enters calculations and Silver In Disguise has been given a chance by the handicapper.

This drop back in trip will suit LYRICAL GENIUS, who ran well over 3m6f here last month and has become well handicapped.

1	4 1st (4) (10/1 -233%) Wolf Prince		10 10/1(-233%)																															(4) Wolf Prince 10/1, Left first 2 runs this season well behind when making all in a small field at Taunton last month. 7 lb higher in what looks a deeper race now. Made all at Taunton last month and remains very well handicapped on old form.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/2 +63%) Manorbank		4.5 9/2(+63%)																															(6) Manorbank 9/2, Won a pair of novice hurdles last spring (the first one over C&D). Decent start over fences when third at Ffos Las on handicap bow in October but absent since pulling up at Exeter in November. Reverts to hurdles now. Not seen since poor chase run in November but remains lightly raced; market may guide.
3	8 3rd (8) (5/1 +0%) Lunar Sovereign		5 5/1(+0%)																															(8) Lunar Sovereign 5/1, Lightly-raced 8-y-o who caught the eye when fourth in the Swinton Hurdle at Haydock last spring. Shaped as if better for the run when sixth of 9 over C&D 13 days ago, losing 3 places on run-in. Of interest having eased another 3 lb since. Returned from layoff with quite encouraging C&D run this month; high on the list.
4	3 4th (3) (17/2 -70%) Aurigny Mill		8.5 17/2(-70%)																															(3) Aurigny Mill 17/2, Back-to-back wins at Wincanton and Kempton in December. Well held in the Betfair at Newbury since but should find life a bit easier in this lower grade. Well beaten in major handicap last time but won his two previous races; a possible.
5th	7 5th (7) (22/1 -38%) Chaos Control		22 22/1(-38%)																															(7) Chaos Control 22/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat who landed a Market Rasen juvenile early last year. Respectable third in a pair of handicaps last summer and sharpened up for this hurdle return with an outing on AW Flat 4 weeks ago. Placed off 1lb higher over hurdles last summer; returned from break with low-key Flat run.
6th	5 6th (5) (9/1 +10%) Way Out		9 9/1(+10%)																															(5) Way Out 9/1, Irish point winner who landed 3 hurdles in the first half of this season. Also shaped well when third in 2 chases in the autumn and given a break since a lesser run at Newbury in December. Did well over hurdles and fences last year; returns from a break; may find 2m a bit sharp.
7th	1 7th (1) (4/1 +27%) Aucunrisque		4 4/1(+27%)																															(1) Aucunrisque 4/1, Betfair Hurdle winner in 2023. Few efforts of note since but this is a drop in class and it wouldn't be a shock to see him stage a revival in first-time cheekpieces. Bagged a major handicap last season but has not been firing on all cylinders this term.
8th	9 8th (9) (33/1 -136%) Princess T		33 33/1(-136%)																															(9) Princess T 33/1, Won over hurdles on Jersey last summer. More miss than hit since but bounced back to form out of the blue when narrowly denied at Ludlow in November. Off since. Ran well in defeat in November but returns from break in much higher grade.
2	2 |PU| (2) (16/5 +20%) Matterhorn		3.2 16/5(+20%)																															(2) Matterhorn 16/5, Defied a penalty in fine style following a breathing operation and 7-month break at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) in November. Good second back there 14 days later but very disappointing on Kempton handicap debut over Christmas. Had another wind op since. Goes well fresh. Dual novice winner; had breathing problem when flopping on handicap debut; had wind op.

17:40 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

WOLF PRINCE bounced back to form with a comfortable success at Taunton last month and a 7lb rise may not be enough to prevent him from following up. Not long with Fergal O'Brien, the eight-year-old has run off much higher marks in the past and is preferred to the class-dropping Aurigny Mill, who had been in excellent form before a lacklustre effort in the Betfair Hurdle. Aucunrisque and Way Out have the form to get involved too.

MATTERHORN has won on both previous outings after wind surgery and is taken to bounce back from a poor run on his Kempton handicap debut over Christmas. Lunar Sovereign should be spot on for this after shaping as if a recent comeback run here was just needed and is second choice ahead of Aurigny Mill.

Preference is for LUNAR SOVEREIGN (nap), who returned from a layoff with a satisfactory run this month and has slipped to a good mark.

1	9 1st (9) (7/2 +42%) Sageburg County		3.5 7/2(+42%)																															(9) Sageburg County 7/2, Made a winning start over fences at Market Rasen last spring before doubling his tally in this sphere at Southwell in November. Below par next 2 starts but latest third at Ascot (21f, good to soft) was a step back in the right direction and he's not discounted. Record is mixed but it was a good run last time at Ascot in a competitive 2m5f handicap.
2	7 2nd (7) (15/2 -15%) Northern Bound		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(7) Northern Bound 15/2, Creditable third on first run following a wind op at Wetherby (19.4f, good) in October but failed to reproduce that level of form at Newbury next time. Opposable, for all that he slipped to a dangerous mark. Does have a patchy profile but he's on a good mark and conditions will be up his street.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/1 -20%) Killer Clown		9 9/1(-20%)																															(4) Killer Clown 9/1, On a good mark based on peak form but he's not the most reliable of performers and yard saddles a more appealing candidate in Tightenourbelts. Respectable fifth in September but poor next time and doesn't look as good as he was.
4	5 4th (5) (22/1 -144%) Opening Bid		22 22/1(-144%)																															(5) Opening Bid 22/1, Fairly-useful chaser who bagged his fifth win of 2023 when readily taking 4-runner handicap at Exeter (19.2f, good) in October. Pulled up in a Grade 2 Wincanton novice the following month and absent since (has undergone a wind op in the meantime). Now on a tough mark and will need to be right on the ball back from break and wind op.
5th	1 5th (1) (18/1 -80%) Brave Seasca		18 18/1(-80%)																															(1) Brave Seasca 18/1, It's been a struggle since his latest success at Aintree in 2022 and while there were glimmers of a revival over 2m here last time, others make more appeal. Potentially well-in but his struggles continued here recently after a break.
6th	3 6th (3) (6/4 +70%) Tightenourbelts		1.5 6/4(+70%)																															(3) Tightenourbelts 6/4, Maiden hurdle winner who made the perfect start to his chase career in a Ludlow novice handicap (2½m, soft) in November. Improved again when third in a Newbury Grade 2 the following month and while he hasn't reproduced that form in 3 subsequent starts, he will be a threat if bouncing back. Has a bit to prove but that's the case with some in this field and the ability is there.
7th	6 7th (6) (8/1 +20%) Gloire D'athon		8 8/1(+20%)																															(6) Gloire D'athon 8/1, Enjoyed a fine campaign over fences last season but he was well held both starts following a break in November, and again ran poorly back from another period of absence at Market Rasen recently. Will be on a good mark when he does turn a corner but reservations for now.
8th	8 8th (8) (22/1 -175%) Fox Pro		22 22/1(-175%)																															(8) Fox Pro 22/1, Belatedly opened chase account when landing a 7-runner Newton Abbot handicap (21f, soft) 12 months ago. Wellbeing has to be taken on trust given that this is his first run since that breakthrough success but he remains on a good mark up just 1 lb. A winner when last seen but that was 12 months ago and not sure what to expect.
2	2 |PU| (2) (9/1 -260%) Diego Du Charmil		9 9/1(-260%)																															(2) Diego Du Charmil 9/1, Latest success over fences was gained in a listed handicap at Ascot back in November 2019. Probably didn't stay 3m on comeback run at that Berkshire course last month but he shaped as though plenty of ability remains intact and he's a major player back down in trip here. Didn't stay 3m on his belated return but he moved with purpose for a long way.

18:10 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

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

BRAVE SEASCA was well held in fifth over 2m here earlier in the month, but the handicapper may have been kind to drop him 4lb. Venetia Williams' nine-year-old takes a step back up in trip and lurks on an appealing mark, so he just shades the vote. Diego Du Charmil could show a lot more than his well-beaten sixth at Ascot last time and he isn't one to write off, while Tightenourbelts is another to keep an eye on.

There were positives to glean from DIEGO DU CHARMIL's comeback run when tried over 3m at Ascot and he is appealing with that under his belt and back over a more suitable trip. Tightenourbelts is feared most ahead of Sageburg County, while Fox Pro would also be in with a shout if resuming in top form following a year off.

All of these come with risks. SAGEBURG COUNTY did at least run close to his best when third in a competitive Ascot race last time.

1	12 1st (12) (4/5 +4%) Roaring Legend		0.8 4/5(+4%)																															(12) Roaring Legend 4/5, Fairly useful on Flat for James Ferguson and promising start over hurdles when runner-up in juveniles at Kempton and Musselburgh. Two disappointing runs on softer ground since (ran in Fred Winter latest) but capable of bouncing back after wind surgery. Leading player on the best of his Flat/hurdles form; drops back markedly in class.
2	6 2nd (6) (50/1 -150%) Lost In The Mist		50 50/1(-150%)																															(6) Lost In The Mist 50/1, Modest in bumpers for Thomas Gallagher. Offered a bit to work on sent hurdling in first-time tongue strap after 16 months off in weak novice seller at Southwell 3 months ago. Needs to leave that form behind. Modest third in novice seller on sole run this term; needs improvement.
3	10 3rd (10) (9/2 +36%) Dog Fox		4.5 9/2(+36%)																															(10) Dog Fox 9/2, Fairly useful 1¼m Flat winner for Ed Dunlop. Better effort over hurdles for new yard when fifth of 13 at Huntingdon over Easter. His Flat ability suggests he could step up again. On the shortlist. Modest RPRs in two runs over hurdles but Flat form suggests he should do better.
4	2 4th (2) (16/1 -33%) Chancycourt		16 16/1(-33%)																															(2) Chancycourt 16/1, Third in an Irish point before shaping well when second in a Worcester bumper (heavy) in October 2021. Seen only twice over hurdles since then and probably more one for handicaps after this unless the betting hints otherwise. Has respectable point/bumper form; not solid on hurdles figures.
5th	9 5th (9) (150/1 -200%) Pacific		150 150/1(-200%)																															(9) Pacific 150/1, Well held in a bumper and modest form on Flat for Jonathan Portman. Outsider now hurdling. Holds poor claims on her bumper/Flat form for Jonathan Portman.
6th	3 6th (3) (12/1 -20%) Corporal Jackjones		12 12/1(-20%)																															(3) Corporal Jackjones 12/1, Landed a couple of small-field bumpers last summer. Second on Worcester hurdle debut last autumn but disappointing on both subsequent starts. Been off for 6 months. Dual bumper winner; absent since October; place possibilities on best form.
7th	7 7th (7) (80/1 -400%) We Ain't Walking		80 80/1(-400%)																															(7) We Ain't Walking 80/1, Pulled up sole start in Irish points (March 2nd). Could only consider if backed. Pulled up in Irish point but started joint-favourite; check the betting.
8th	11 8th (11) (40/1 +39%) Nobody Told Me		40 40/1(+39%)																															(11) Nobody Told Me 40/1, Fair Flat winner for Jedd O'Keeffe but well held in Taunton novice hurdles in recent weeks. Booked for another struggle. Flat scorer; needs to improve on his hurdles efforts.
9th	1 9th (1) (3/1 -20%) Banteer		3 3/1(-20%)																															(1) Banteer 3/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up on the first of 2 starts in bumpers. Also a promising third in a 2m novice hurdle at Wincanton in December. Two subsequent runs underwhelming but still early days for top stable and sports a tongue tie this time. Best effort (third to useful opponent) reads well in this context; respected.
10th	4 10th (4) (200/1 -300%) Fort Lauderdale		200 200/1(-300%)																															(4) Fort Lauderdale 200/1, Well held in bumpers (for Lucinda Russell) and 2 maiden hurdles. First-time cheekpieces will need to make a big difference. Has very weak claims on form; now goes in headgear.
11th	8 11th (8) (50/1 +0%) Maryollie		50 50/1(+0%)																															(8) Maryollie 50/1, £45,000 Irish point winner but more one for handicaps judged on her 2 hurdle efforts this spring. Irish point winner; has achieved little in two hurdles runs.
12th	5 12th (5) (150/1 -50%) Gerrots		150 150/1(-50%)																															(5) Gerrots 150/1, Modest Flat winner. 200/1, well held on recent Hereford hurdle debut. Modest Flat winner; failed to beat a rival on the switch to hurdles.

18:40 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

ROARING LEGEND sets a fair standard with a rating of 119 in this contest after being pulled up in the Boodles at the Cheltenham Festival last month. He has since undergone wind surgery and Olly Murphy's four-year-old could be the one to beat dropped in class. His main danger is Banteer, who sports a first-time tongue-tie which could eke out more, while Dog Fox makes the most appeal of the remainder after his fifth at Huntingdon.

If a recent breathing operation helps ROARING LEGEND to recapture the level of his first 2 outings over hurdles he'll take a bit of stopping. Fellow dual Flat winner Dog Fox didn't shape too badly at Huntingdon over Easter and is second choice ahead of Banteer.

Back down sharply in grade, ROARING LEGEND is the form choice. Banteer is feared most.

1	8 1st (8) (2/7 +19%) Break My Soul		0.285714 2/7(+19%)																															(8) Break My Soul 2/7, Fetched £290,000 after landing sole start in Irish points and has shaped with more encouragement than the result suggests on each of her 3 hurdling outings to date. Sets the standard and has been found a good opportunity to open her account. Placed in Newbury handicap last month; appears to have been found a good opportunity here.
2	7 2nd (7) (6/1 -80%) Rehill Relic		6 6/1(-80%)																															(7) Rehill Relic 6/1, Showed ability in a bumper and stepped forward markedly from hurdling debut when fourth in a novice at Huntingdon last time. Looks the main danger to Break My Soul. Engaged 3.10 Warwick Thursday. Made the frame on first two hurdling starts and has a part to play here too.
3	4 3rd (4) (50/1 -52%) Hour Star		50 50/1(-52%)																															(4) Hour Star 50/1, Runner-up on the first of 2 starts in bumpers last season. Yet to offer much encouragement over hurdles, though. Has tended to spoil his chance with sketchy jumping and by refusing to settle.
4	11 4th (11) (50/1 -52%) Ocean Ridge		50 50/1(-52%)																															(11) Ocean Ridge 50/1, Modest on the Flat and had a quiet introduction to hurdling when ninth in a novice at Hereford 12 days ago. Likely to need time in this sphere. Basement-grade AW winner last month but soundly beaten when back over hurdles recently.
5th	1 5th (1) (50/1 -52%) Deep Strato		50 50/1(-52%)																															(1) Deep Strato 50/1, Signs of ability in a bumper but yet to build on that over hurdles. Has had a breathing operation (also tongue tied) since latest outing at Ludlow a couple of months ago but big step forward is required. Point winner last spring but well beaten on first two hurdling starts.
6th	6 6th (6) (20/1 -67%) Prairie Diamond		20 20/1(-67%)																															(6) Prairie Diamond 20/1, Debut winner of Hereford bumper in February and shaped with encouragement when fourth of 8 in novice hurdle in November. Poor showing at Ludlow next time and will probably need this first run in 5 months. Off since poor run in November but this bumper winner made a fair start to hurdling career.
7th	10 7th (10) (66/1 -164%) Kauto Castillo		66 66/1(-164%)																															(10) Kauto Castillo 66/1, Makes some appeal on pedigree but hard to make a solid case for having been pulled up in a novice at Taunton on hurdling debut 4 months ago. Struggling from early stage on debut in December; can only be watched here.
8th	9 8th (9) (125/1 -150%) Gilwen Rosie		125 125/1(-150%)																															(9) Gilwen Rosie 125/1, Well held in a Wincanton bumper on debut and no show on hurdling debut at this course 14 months later. Makes no appeal. Well beaten on bumper debut in 2022 and pulled up when switched to hurdling last month.
9th	3 9th (3) (17/2 +47%) High Joker		8.5 17/2(+47%)																															(3) High Joker 17/2, Mountain High gelding. Dam (h91) lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles. Worth market check for shrewd stable. Doesn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to get competitive on this belated debut..
2	2 |U| (2) (20/1 +39%) Easter Icon		20 20/1(+39%)																															(2) Easter Icon 20/1, Fair handicapper on the Flat and showed a bit of aptitude despite racing freely in novice at Ascot on hurdling debut. Probably more one for handicaps. Four-time AW winner; only minor promise on hurdle debut at Ascot but this race is easier.
5	5 |PU| (5) (200/1 -100%) Maryah Island		200 200/1(-100%)																															(5) Maryah Island 200/1, Well held in 2 bumpers 9 months ago and refused to race in a novice hurdle at Fontwell 7 days ago. Easily passed over. Well beaten in both bumpers, then refused to race on last week's hurdling debut.

19:10 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Point-to-point winner BREAK MY SOUL has hit the frame on each of her three starts under Rules so far, with her latest third over 2m3f at Newbury reading well in the context of this race. The daughter of Doyen takes a drop in distance, which shouldn't pose her any problems, and she can get off the mark. Any market confidence behind High Joker on his debut would be interesting, while Easter Icon will need to improve on his Ascot effort when finishing sixth.

BREAK MY SOUL, an expensive recruit from points, has found less than seemed likely a couple of times but, given what she's achieved, she might not have to come off the bridle to open her account under Rules in a thin maiden here.

19:40 Chepstow Hunter Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

DOUGLAS LONGBOTTOM has few miles on the clock and he arrives in excellent form having landed back-to-back victories in the pointing sphere. The son of Helmet should have more to offer and, with few concerns regarding ground conditions, he gets a confident vote. Powerstown Park hasn't been seen under Rules for over two years, but he boasts the highest official rating and must be considered, along with Montanna.

GATS AND CO has a good record at Chepstow and gets the vote over stablemate Looksnowtlikebrian, Castle Daragh and Douglas Longbottom.

Sprightly 13yo LOOKSNOWTLIKEBRIAN makes a quick reappearance after running well in a prestigious point on Saturday and gets the nod.

1	5 1st (5) (9/2 -13%) Florencethemachine		4.5 9/2(-13%)																															(5) Florencethemachine 9/2, Successful in Irish points and confirmed previous hurdling promise when landing 2m novice at Exeter in January. Firmly back on track when third at this course (travelled strongly) and can get involved if she stays the longer trip. Unexposed 6yo who could find more progress on this switch to a staying trip; shortlisted.
2	13 2nd (13) (10/1 +38%) Danton		10 10/1(+38%)																															(13) Danton 10/1, Looked on the up when scoring at Exeter in November. Tame efforts both subsequent starts but upped in trip after a break and his stable amongst the winners. Won at Exeter in November but he's been pulled up in both runs since; needs major revival.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/1 -56%) Up For Parol		7 7/1(-56%)																															(1) Up For Parol 7/1, Three-time hurdle winner who has slipped to a handy mark and posted his best effort of the current campaign when second at Fakenham 25 days ago. One to consider. Close second at Fakenham latest; now goes up to 2m7f but has claims if stamina holds out.
4	14 4th (14) (3/1 +50%) Pipers Cross		3 3/1(+50%)																															(14) Pipers Cross 3/1, 3/1, career best when winning 7-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) 13 days ago, driven clear. Has been in top form for a while and there's every reason to expect another bold showing. Has form figures of 222131 for current yard and she's open to more progress; respected.
5th	12 5th (12) (18/1 -13%) Hurricane Danny		18 18/1(-13%)																															(12) Hurricane Danny 18/1, Stepped up markedly on his hurdles debut form when runner-up behind stablemate Isaac des Obeaux here (19.5f) in November. Poor efforts since, so others are more appealing. Tailed off on handicap debut at Kempton and has something to prove after another break.
6th	6 6th (6) (25/1 -25%) Halifax		25 25/1(-25%)																															(6) Halifax 25/1, Bagged third success for current yard at Bangor (23f) in September and made the frame on his next 2 starts. However, not in the same form since and others make more appeal. Three hurdle wins last year but well held in last three runs; needs a major upturn in form.
7th	2 7th (2) (28/1 -180%) Midnightreflection		28 28/1(-180%)																															(2) Midnightreflection 28/1, Registered a fifth career success with battling victory at Ascot (3m, good) in November but has lost her form since. Now 1lb lower than for last win and she could revive back in quicker conditions; dangerous.
8th	11 8th (11) (15/2 +17%) Saunton Surf		7.5 15/2(+17%)																															(11) Saunton Surf 15/2, Easy winner of a point/Aintree bumper for Bradley Gibbs and better than the result on two of three hurdling outings, catching the eye with finishing effort at Wincanton 85 days ago. Likely improver on handicap debut. Unexposed over hurdles and looks a possible improver upped in trip on her handicap debut.
9th	9 9th (9) (9/1 -13%) Sporting Mike		9 9/1(-13%)																															(9) Sporting Mike 9/1, Point winner who achieved a fairly useful level of form over hurdles last season. Failed to take to chasing on first 2 starts this term and just respectable efforts back in this sphere the last twice. No impact back over hurdles last twice and sole win was in 2022; cheekpieces added.
10th	8 10th (8) (10/1 +38%) Jersey Lady		10 10/1(+38%)																															(8) Jersey Lady 10/1, Has developed a good partnership with her jockey, completing a hat-trick at Fontwell (25.7f) for Oliver Greenall in June. Has seemed in the handicapper's grip for current yard but return to quicker ground could suit. Five hurdle wins but she's been held in last three runs and looks weighted near best.
11th	16 11th (16) (20/1 -25%) John W Creasy		20 20/1(-25%)																															(16) John W Creasy 20/1, 11/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, heavy) 86 days ago. Had wind op since. Up in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Improvement required and needs to put a poor run behind him. Well held in his four handicaps and he needs a transformation after wind surgery.
12th	4 12th (4) (25/1 -150%) Galloping Pride		25 25/1(-150%)																															(4) Galloping Pride 25/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points last year and stepped forward from hurdling debut when third in novice at Wincanton in January. Probably found the race coming too soon at Exeter next time and could up his game now handicapping after a break. Unexposed handicap newcomer and he needs watching in market back up in trip.
13th	3 13th (3) (28/1 -40%) Gaelic Park		28 28/1(-40%)																															(3) Gaelic Park 28/1, Point/bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles in 11-runner maiden at Warwick last spring. Hasn't shown much over fences this season but may benefit from the return to the smaller obstacles. Has struggled in three chase runs this term and needs a major revival back over hurdles.
15	15 |PU| (15) (100/1 -203%) San Fermin		100 100/1(-203%)																															(15) San Fermin 100/1, Made most of good opportunity to open his account over hurdles for Olly Murphy in novice at Market Rasen (23f) back in June. Offered nothing on debut for this yard back from 8 months off at Taunton last time, though, so others preferred. Pulled up at a big price on his handicap/stable debut at Taunton last month; opposable.

20:15 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The vote goes to PIPERS CROSS, who was a commanding winner of a C&D mares' event 13 days ago and appears to hold every chance of following up off a 6lb raised mark. Up For Parol was a beaten favourite when filling the runner-up spot at Fakenham last time but he remains of interest off an unchanged rating, while Florencethemachine is also noted.

PIPERS CROSS steps up in grade now but had plenty to spare over C&D last time and further improvement can't be ruled out, so she's preferred to Up For Parol, with Florencethemachine an obvious player if the step up in trip suits.

Plenty have possibilties but the handicap newcomer SAUNTON SURF gets the vote ahead of Florencethemachine and Pipers Cross.

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.
