Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	11 1st (11) (10/1 +0%) Salta Resta	10 10/1(+0%)	(11) Salta Resta 10/1, Unreliable type. 16/1, respectable sixth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 20 days ago. Hard puller; three creditable efforts this year and more appealing than many.
2	1 2nd (1) (6.5/1 +19%) Under Curfew	6.5 6.5/1(+19%)	(1) Under Curfew 6.5/1, Course winner. 7/1, bit below form fourth of 12 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good to soft) 5 days ago. On a lengthy losing run but mark reflects that. On losing run but he's a solid candidate if reproducing this year's best.
3	10 3rd (10) (14/1 -133%) Rhubarb	14 14/1(-133%)	(10) Rhubarb 14/1, Four-time course winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2022. 6/1, eighth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good) 10 days ago, slowly away and short of room. Needs considering at this level, Conditions to suit and she's dropped to a lowly mark; has a big run in her.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 +54%) On Edge	3 3/1(+54%)	(3) On Edge 3/1, C&D winner in July and another good effort when ½-length third of 8 to Louis Treize in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago. Another bold showing likely. Conditions to suit & he's run well here the last twice; closely matched with Louis Treize.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 +27%) Evasive Power	4 4/1(+27%)	(2) Evasive Power 4/1, Good ¾-length fourth of 8 to Louis Treize in handicap (9/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 35 days ago, giving way only late. Enters calculations having eased another 1 lb. Not far behind a couple of these here last month and that was after a break.
6th	8 6th (8) (8.5/1 -31%) Louis Treize	8.5 8.5/1(-31%)	(8) Louis Treize 8.5/1, Tricky customer. C&D winner. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win here in July. Good third of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 24 days ago. Clearly going through a good spell at present. Quirky but talented for the grade; two course wins this year; should be in the thick of it.
7th	9 7th (9) (20/1 -233%) Bluebell Time	20 20/1(-233%)	(9) Bluebell Time 20/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 10/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good) 15 days ago, though she was badly drawn. Cheekpieces on and she figures on a good mark. Gone off the boil of late and the addition of cheekpieces needs to give her a lift.
8th	13 8th (13) (100/1 -150%) Epeius	100 100/1(-150%)	(13) Epeius 100/1, Twenty five runs since last win in 2020. Tenth of 12 in handicap (50/1) at Bath (5.7f, good to soft) 5 days ago. On losing run and well short of his best on Saturday; others look much safer.
9th	7 9th (7) (20/1 -208%) Bear To Dream	20 20/1(-208%)	(7) Bear To Dream 20/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 11/2, last of 6 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Ignore last time & she's a contender off a reduced mark under conditions that should suit.
10th	6 10th (6) (20/1 +20%) El Hibri	20 20/1(+20%)	(6) El Hibri 20/1, Maiden who is dropping in the weights without looking ready to take advantage. Regressive maiden; return to sprinting may help but others have more pressing claims.
11th	14 11th (14) (16/1 -33%) Tranquillity	16 16/1(-33%)	(14) Tranquillity 16/1, Seventh of 10 in minor event at Brighton (8f, good, 8/1) 44 days ago. Back down in trip and needs to leave that effort well behind. Modest maiden; claims if reproducing her penultimate third now back down in trip.
12th	12 12th (12) (80/1 -100%) Our Man In Havana	80 80/1(-100%)	(12) Our Man In Havana 80/1, C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. Eleventh of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good, 40/1) 10 days ago, slowly away. Blinkers now tried. Struggling in 2023 but his last three wins have come at this track; blinkered first time.
13th	4 13th (4) (18/1 +10%) Flip Mode	18 18/1(+10%)	(4) Flip Mode 18/1, Dual 5f winner here back in 2021 but has shown precious little in a trio of recent outings following a 22-month absence. Yet to fire after a lengthy absence; down in weights but too much to prove.
14th	15 14th (15) (125/1 -150%) Kay Ceraar	125 125/1(-150%)	(15) Kay Ceraar 125/1, 100/1, tenth of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 24 days ago. One mildly promising run and eight poor ones; easy enough to swerve.
5	5 \|RR\| (5) (6.5/1 +28%) Hagia Sophia	6.5 6.5/1(+28%)	(5) Hagia Sophia 6.5/1, C&D winner. Refused to race in handicap at Bath (5.7f, good, 5/1) 29 days ago so now needs treating with a degree of caution. Conditions to suit but she blotted her copybook when refusing to race at Bath last time.

LTO Selection:

13:40 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Louis Treize is interesting with the seven-year-old seemingly at his best here but he was less than a length in front of ON EDGE when winning at this venue in July and meets that rival on worse terms here. Twice a C&D winner, the five-year-old may have the edge on this occasion. Tony Carroll's yard are going well and Under Curfew may be the best of his team, though he may have to settle for a place in this line-up.

An open handicap with BLUEBELL TIME the tentativie selection from her career-low mark fitted with cheekpieces for the first time. Louis Treize isn't an easy ride but he arrives in good order, with On Edge another to consider.

On Edge and LOUIS TREIZE are closely matched on recent starts and the latter is taken to come out on top this time.

14:15 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (8/1 -256%) Hastily	8 8/1(-256%)	(1) Hastily 8/1, Irish raider who found only one too good at Naas in June. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Ffos Las (5f, heavy) 24 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Hood on first time down markedly in class. Pulled hard and weakened over 5f latest (soft); good ground will suit better; hood fitted.
2	5 2nd (5) (7.5/1 -7%) Porterinthejungle	7.5 7.5/1(-7%)	(5) Porterinthejungle 7.5/1, Course winner. Below form fourth of 9 in handicap (7/2) at Redcar (6f, soft). Off 10 months so there's a chance she'll need this. One 7f win from just two starts here; latest win at 5f; no great record when fresh.
4	6 4th (6) (4.5/1 +10%) Fossos	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(6) Fossos 4.5/1, Four-time C&D winner. Latest win here in July. Respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Bath (5f, good, 7/2) 20 days ago. Can make presence felt. Four of five turf wins have come over C&D, latest in July; in the reckoning back here.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 +23%) Atty's Edge	5 5/1(+23%)	(4) Atty's Edge 5/1, Tricky customer. C&D winner. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Salisbury (5f, good, 11/4) 14 days ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark these days. Two course wins and rarely runs badly here; hinting his turn is coming round again.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/1 +22%) Coronation Cottage	7 7/1(+22%)	(7) Coronation Cottage 7/1, C&D winner. Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. Respectable third of 6 in handicap (17/2) at Salisbury (5f, good) 14 days ago. C&D winner; close-run thing when runner-up on latest run here; capable of taking a hand.
7th	2 7th (2) (7/1 +36%) My Genghis	7 7/1(+36%)	(2) My Genghis 7/1, Fifth of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, soft, 7/1) 40 days ago, hanging left under pressure. AW winner at 5f; should find a turf race on 5f/6f form in May; return to 5f can suit.
8th	8 8th (8) (28/1 -12%) Get Busy	28 28/1(-12%)	(8) Get Busy 28/1, 40/1, ninth of 15 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 35 days ago. Back down in trip and blinkers need to spark him into life. Minor form in four handicaps at 5f-7f, failing to find much in the closing stages.
3	3 \|DQ\| (3) (2.75/1 +8%) Corellian Star	2.75 2.75/1(+8%)	(3) Corellian Star 2.75/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 6/4, second of 8 in novice event at Ripon (5f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time for handicap debut representing an excellent yard. Promising at 5f on soft; should go well on good ground; interesting on handicap debut.

LTO Selection:

14:15 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

ATTY'S EDGE has been running well in defeat of late and that includes a narrow defeat at Bath a couple of starts ago. Twice a winner here, the seven-year-old may be able to get the better of the unexposed maiden Corellian Star, who looks his biggest rival in first-time cheekpieces. Fossos and Hastily may prove to be best of the rest.

HASTILY is well handicapped on the pick of her Irish form and down in class fitted with a hood, so she can cash in. Corellian Star is a handicap debutante for a very good yard so she needs considering, along with Atty's Edge.

Fossos and Atty's Edge are solid contenders but CORELLIAN STAR (nap) goes handicapping at a realistic level and gets the vote.

LTO Selection:

14:50 Chepstow Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Lahab is noted but he will need to step forward from his Kempton third, although he did pull too hard that day and may settle better on his second start of the season. MEXICALI ROSE is becoming frustrating but she has the ability to win a race of this nature judged on her half-length third at Lingfield in June, and a repeat of that may be good enough. Newcomer Naturelle is one to watch in the markets for any signs of confidence.

MEXICALI ROSE stands out on form so has an excellent chance of breaking her duck. Lahab is a clear next best in what is a very thin maiden.

It's been said before about her but MEXICALI ROSE appears to hold a good chance. Clear second on the list is Lahab.

1	3 1st (3) (12/1 -85%) Fact Or Fable	12 12/1(-85%)	(3) Fact Or Fable 12/1, C&D winner. 4 wins from 18 runs this year. Latest win here in July. Respectable third of 9 in handicap (12/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 27 days ago. Four wins this summer, two of them over C&D; should be involved once again.
2	6 2nd (6) (5/1 -11%) Ticket To Alaska	5 5/1(-11%)	(6) Ticket To Alaska 5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (12/1) at Newbury (7f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Enters calculations. 13-race maiden but he's often threatened, including in a much better race last time.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/1 +18%) Silver Diva	9 9/1(+18%)	(7) Silver Diva 9/1, Remains a maiden after 28 Flat runs. Very good third of 10 in minor event at Brighton (7f, good, 18/1) 14 days ago. Exposed maiden; ran well in a classified event last time but not sure to back it up.

6th	1 6th (1) (7/1 +30%) Gilt Edge	7 7/1(+30%)	(1) Gilt Edge 7/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Salisbury (6f, good to firm) 67 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. 0-9 over 7f but she does stay this far; down in grade but others stronger for the win.
7th	13 7th (13) (14/1 +0%) Barleybrown	14 14/1(+0%)	(13) Barleybrown 14/1, 12/1, thirteenth of 15 in handicap at Leicester (7f, good) 35 days ago. Flopped last time but his earlier 3rd here (6f) brings him into the reckoning.
8th	8 8th (8) (125/1 -400%) Tilt At Windmills	125 125/1(-400%)	(8) Tilt At Windmills 125/1, Last of 7 in handicap at Wetherby (7f, good to firm, 25/1) 79 days ago. First run for yard after leaving K. R. Burke. Didn't progress for Karl Burke & sold for 1,000gns last month; down in weights but risky.
9th	11 9th (11) (25/1 +0%) Runner Bean	25 25/1(+0%)	(11) Runner Bean 25/1, 9 lengths tenth of 12 to Fact Or Fable in handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 22/1) 35 days ago. Well short of her best on last four starts; she's had a wind op but remains opposable.
10th	9 10th (9) (80/1 -220%) Wiff Waff	80 80/1(-220%)	(9) Wiff Waff 80/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. 33/1, last of 11 in handicap at Ffos Las (7.4f, good to firm) 60 days ago. Others more persuasive. On losing run and, although he went close over C&D in June, he was well held last time.
11th	14 11th (14) (80/1 -21%) Spanish Storm	80 80/1(-21%)	(14) Spanish Storm 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good to firm, 50/1) 72 days ago. No better for handicapping when last seen in June; still early days but lots to prove.
12th	5 12th (5) (7/1 -40%) Letter Of The Law	7 7/1(-40%)	(5) Letter Of The Law 7/1, Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap (5/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 27 days ago. Merits consideration. 1m winner in May; solid in defeat since, including C&D latest; each-way claims at least.
13th	10 13th (10) (8/1 +0%) Latent Heat	8 8/1(+0%)	(10) Latent Heat 8/1, Temperamental sort. Eighteen runs since last win in 2022. 7/2, bit below form fifth of 10 in minor event at this course (8.1f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Below par over 1m here last time; cheekpieces need to spark something extra from him.

LTO Selection:

15:25 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

DIAMONDSINTHESAND was slightly unfortunate not to have gained a first career victory at Ffos Las 24 days ago, where he finished within a head of the winner having been denied a clear run passing the furlong marker. Adrian Wintle's gelding is 2lb higher today, but a similar performance could suffice. Dual C&D winner Fact Or Fable looks set to be in the thick of things once again, while Ticket To Alaska is most appealing of the remainder.

DIAMONDSINTHESAND has made a positive start for this yard and can make amends for his unlucky defeat at Ffos Las. Ticket To Alaska and Letter of The Law are feared most.

Barleybrown still has time to do better but TICKET TO ALASKA is down in grade and can finally land his breakthrough success.

1	3 1st (3) (2.25/1 +63%) Lunanera	2.25 2.25/1(+63%)	(3) Lunanera 2.25/1, Fair ex-French maiden. Posted a good third of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (8f, soft, 15/2) on UK debut 8 days ago. One to consider. A neck behind Obama Army when third on stable debut at Ffos Las; respected.
2	2 2nd (2) (8.5/1 +58%) Peaceful Story	8.5 8.5/1(+58%)	(2) Peaceful Story 8.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Only sixth of 9 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good to soft, 10/1) 28 days ago so needs to bounce back. Has failed to transfer novice form into handicaps; bit to prove.
3	4 3rd (4) (3.5/1 -5%) Obama Army	3.5 3.5/1(-5%)	(4) Obama Army 3.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in July. 9/1, second of 7 in handicap at Ffos Las (8f, soft) 8 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Still in the mix. Second at Ffos Las last time, but wouldn't be sure to confirm the form with Lunanera.
4	1 4th (1) (5/1 +23%) Magnanimous Mehmus	5 5/1(+23%)	(1) Magnanimous Mehmus 5/1, 7/1, first run since leaving Adrian Murray when respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (7.2f, good) 12 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time and not ruled out. 0-10, but has shown ability and has shaped as though 1m will suit; cheekpieces on.
5th	8 5th (8) (16/1 +36%) H Key Lails	16 16/1(+36%)	(8) H Key Lails 16/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in May. Only fifth of 7 in handicap at Sandown (8f, heavy, 14/1) 22 days ago. More is required. 0-7 on turf but acts on it; possible to forgive both defeats since second at Brighton.
6th	9 6th (9) (66/1 -65%) Zalicia Fire	66 66/1(-65%)	(9) Zalicia Fire 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Off 7 months before posting a below-par fourth of 5 to Believe You Me in handicap here (7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Not easy to make a case for. Around 11l behind Believe You Me on handicap/turf debut here last month; look elsewhere.
7th	5 7th (5) (2.75/1 -10%) Lunar Landscape	2.75 2.75/1(-10%)	(5) Lunar Landscape 2.75/1, Good second of 11 in handicap at Bath (8f, good, 9/4) 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and he's not taken lightly. 0-8 but getting there and runner-up in his last two starts off this mark; blinkers on.
8th	7 8th (7) (66/1 -230%) Miss Sarajevo	66 66/1(-230%)	(7) Miss Sarajevo 66/1, Ninth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f, 12/1) 77 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Richard Spencer. Others have achieved more. Modest the last twice; makes her stable debut after 11 weeks off; enough to prove.

LTO Selection:

15:55 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

There was little to separate Obama Army (second) and Lunanera (third) when the pair met at Ffos Las eight days ago but, though both merit respect, preference is for BELIEVE YOU ME. The daughter of Make Believe powered clear to record a commanding success over 7f here last month and she could be even better now sent over a mile.

BELIEVE YOU ME has a career-high mark to overcome but there was plenty to like about her recent course win so she looks the way to go with this longer trip also a likely plus. Lunar Landscape is feared most on the back of his good Bath second, ahead of Archie Watson's new recruit Lunanera.

It may be worth chancing MAGNANIMOUS MEHMUS who showed ability when trained in Ireland and ran well on his stable debut last time.

2	11 2nd (11) (7.5/1 -15%) Kenstone	7.5 7.5/1(-15%)	(11) Kenstone 7.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in June. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Windsor (8.1f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. C&D win in June; behind two of these here next time but latest third was creditable.
3	7 3rd (7) (8/1 -14%) Galactic Glow	8 8/1(-14%)	(7) Galactic Glow 8/1, 3 wins from 7 runs this year. Latest win at Bath in July. Good second of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (9.9f, good, 17/2) 8 days ago. Can go well. Three 1m2f Bath wins this summer and back on song when second last week; back down in trip.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -50%) Bantry	12 12/1(-50%)	(4) Bantry 12/1, 5/1, below-form fifth of 9 to Coffeemeanscoffee in handicap at this course (7.1f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Tongue strap back on. Not taken lightly if shrugging off latest effort. Second on C&D yard debut but not at the same level over 7f twice since; revival needed.
5th	12 5th (12) (7.5/1 -150%) Coffeemeanscoffee	7.5 7.5/1(-150%)	(12) Coffeemeanscoffee 7.5/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 11/4, career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Ffos Las (6f, heavy) 24 days ago, just holding on. Significantly up in trip. Expected to be bang there in her hat-trick bid. Snapped losing run here (7f) and followed up at Ffos Las (6f); respected on hat-trick bid.
6th	9 6th (9) (3.5/1 +46%) Galileo Glass	3.5 3.5/1(+46%)	(9) Galileo Glass 3.5/1, Twenty two runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 9 in handicap at Brighton (8f, good, 4/1) 3 days ago. In the picture. Second to Coffeemeanscoffee here in July and went close over 1m at Brighton on Monday.
7th	3 7th (3) (16/1 +0%) Lunar Space	16 16/1(+0%)	(3) Lunar Space 16/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. Eighteen runs since last win in 2021. 11/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Bath (8f, good) 15 days ago.

8th	6 8th (6) (7.5/1 -67%) Luxy Lou	7.5 7.5/1(-67%)	(6) Luxy Lou 7.5/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 4/1, improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap at Bath (8f, good) 36 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Still needs considering. Came from off strong pace to lead late on at Bath under Billy Loughnane last month; up 4lb.
9th	10 9th (10) (22/1 +33%) Fitzrovia	22 22/1(+33%)	(10) Fitzrovia 22/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. First run since leaving Ed De Giles when last of 13 in handicap (7/1) at Bath (8f, good) 15 days ago. Others appeal more. Last of 13 on recent stable debut; has plenty to prove.

11th	1 11th (1) (25/1 -25%) Diamond Cottage	25 25/1(-25%)	(1) Diamond Cottage 25/1, Course winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year. Latest win at Brighton in June. Last of 6 in handicap (9/1) at Salisbury (7f, good) 8 days ago. Hood back on with more needed. Three 7f wins at Brighton this year but below par lately and stamina to prove at 1m.

LTO Selection:

16:30 Chepstow Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

KENSTONE has been in good form recently and the veteran, a dual C&D winner, might be able to take advantage of a workable handicap mark. Coffeemeanscoffee must be feared as she goes in search of a hat-trick, along with the Bath-scorer Luxy Lou, who does not look overburdened by a subsequent 4lb rise in the ratings. Others to note include Hostelry, Galactic Glow and Galileo Glass.

Irish challenger COFFEEMEANSCOFFEE arrives at the top of her game so is fancied to complete a quick hat-trick now stepping back up in trip. In-form duo Galactic Glow and Kenstone appeal as the two to give Tom McGuinness's mare most to do and can chase her home in that order.

Hollie Doyle replaces an apprentice on HOSTELRY and she might give Ruth Carr's mare the bit extra she needs to resume winning ways.

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.
