6	6 (6) (28/1 -12%) Kitty's Light		28 28/1(-12%)																															(6) Kitty's Light 28/1, Scottish National hero in 2022/23 and an excellent fifth in Grand National last term. Well held all 3 runs so far this season, though, and it could be that his campaign is again being fine-tuned around another trip to Aintree during the spring. On a reduced mark and one to watch in the betting but he's struggled this autumn.
1	15 1st (15) (8/1 +60%) Charlie Uberalles		8 8/1(+60%)																															(15) Charlie Uberalles 8/1, Fairly useful chaser who was as good as ever when scoring at Cartmel in June. Best effort since when finding just one too good at Kelso (21.6f, good to soft) last time but he will need to produce a bigger and better effort in order to take this from 3 lb out of the handicap. Inconsistent but good third of 18 over C&D in January and he's not ruled out each-way.
2	14 2nd (14) (16/1 +36%) Docpickedme		16 16/1(+36%)																															(14) Docpickedme 16/1, Successful over fences at Wetherby in January but disappointing all 3 subsequent starts in this sphere. Left low-key reappearance run behind when third in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time but whether he'll be in the same form back chasing remains to be seen. Step back in right direction when 3rd over hurdles but others have more compelling claims.
3	5 3rd (5) (11/2 -10%) Forward Plan		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(5) Forward Plan 11/2, Progressive chaser who landed this race off 12 lb lower last year on the back of a pipe-opener in the Badger Beer at Wincanton. Follows the exact same route this time round and another very bold show could be on the way. Won this 12 months ago and continued in fine form; could leave reappearance run behind.
4	2 4th (2) (15/2 -15%) Does He Know		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(2) Does He Know 15/2, Smart chaser who returned to form when landing the Grimthorpe in first-time cheekpieces here during the spring. Respectable efforts in valuable Cheltenham handicaps both starts this season and he has to enter calculations for the yard responsible for the winner of this in both 2020 and 2021. Won here in March; respectable runs at Cheltenham this term; yard won this in 2020 & 2021.
5th	3 5th (3) (20/1 +20%) Kinondo Kwetu		20 20/1(+20%)																															(3) Kinondo Kwetu 20/1, Back on-song when bagging handicaps at Uttoxeter and Worcester during the summer. Followed that brace with a solid second at Perth in September and by no means disgraced in the Rehearsal Chase at Newcastle (23.4f, good) recently. However, a clear career-best will be needed if he's to take this. Won two in a row in the summer but below par the last twice and needs to bounce back.
6th	12 6th (12) (5/2 +50%) Gaboriot		2.5 5/2(+50%)																															(12) Gaboriot 5/2, Superb strike rate in recent times, scoring 5 times since October 2023 (3 hunters and a couple of open handicaps). Nothing wrong with his reappearance third of 13 in the Grand Sefton at Aintree (21f, good) last month and it's not at all hard to envisage this C&D winner playing a leading role. C&D winner who stayed on for good third in the 2m5f Grand Sefton last month; shortlisted.
7th	7 7th (7) (16/1 -33%) Sail Away		16 16/1(-33%)																															(7) Sail Away 16/1, Dual winner on good ground in 2022/23 and shaped well on several occasions in defeat last term. However, ran poorly on return at Chepstow in October and, though yet to be asked for this effort when falling 4 out at Newbury since, this 8-y-o now has a bit to prove. Well handicapped on last winter's C&D form and his latest performance was encouraging.
8th	8 8th (8) (20/1 -67%) Pull Again Green		20 20/1(-67%)																															(8) Pull Again Green 20/1, Just the one success over fences so far, namely a Bangor handicap back in 2023, but it's hard to fault his string of place efforts since returning from a short break in August. Probably doesn't hold any secrets from the handicapper but he's a solid each-way candidate nonetheless. Just 1-10 over fences but runner-up the last twice and holds each-way claims once more.
9th	9 9th (9) (20/1 +20%) Straw Fan Jack		20 20/1(+20%)																															(9) Straw Fan Jack 20/1, Smart form as a novice and standout effort of an otherwise low-key campaign last season was his fine third in the 20.6f Plate at the Cheltenham Festival. Ran about as well as could've been expected when 6 lb 'wrong' on return in the Paddy Power there last month. Stamina to prove now upped to 3m. Return to form is needed and unraced at 3m, but it's worth a go and he's not written off.
10	10 |U| (10) (14/1 +13%) Erne River		14 14/1(+13%)																															(10) Erne River 14/1, Responded well to the first-time cheekpieces when scoring over C&D last December before finishing fifth of 18 in the Great Yorkshire Handicap back here the following month. Pulled up all 3 starts since but it'll be interesting to see if the new headgear (first-time blinkers) has the desired effect. Pulled up on last three starts but the return to Doncaster could trigger a revival.
10th	11 10th (11) (20/1 +29%) Whistleinthedark		20 20/1(+29%)																															(11) Whistleinthedark 20/1, Winner of 4 of his 11 starts in this sphere and wasn't beaten at all far when fourth to Forward Plan off a 12 lb higher mark in this race last year. Dangerous to discount on that basis but it's been a struggle for the most part since. Ran well for a long way in the Scottish National in April but well beaten the last twice.
4	4 |PU| (4) (11/1 -38%) Chasing Fire		11 11/1(-38%)																															(4) Chasing Fire 11/1, Notched second success over fences when accounting for 5 rivals in 23.8f Perth handicap on final run of last season. Effort proved short-lived on return at Cheltenham in October but that spin will have blown away the cobwebs and perhaps the addition of cheekpieces here will help give him a lift. May have needed October reappearance run; convincing win at Perth on final run last season.
13	13 |PU| (13) (16/1 -45%) Ballycoose		16 16/1(-45%)																															(13) Ballycoose 16/1, Successful start over fences at Ayr in January and runner-up on 2 of his next 3 starts, notably second in a pretty valuable handicap when returned to Ayr for the Scottish National meeting. However, he didn't show much spark on his seasonal reappearance at Punchestown. Runner-up in 3m handicap at Ayr's Scottish National meeting; may have needed reappearance.
1	1 |PU| (1) (33/1 -175%) Elvis Mail		33 33/1(-175%)																															(1) Elvis Mail 33/1, Rather hit-and-miss last term but still managed to win twice and continued his love affair with Kelso (yet to finish out of the frame in 14 visits to the track) when making a successful reappearance in typically game fashion there (26.2f, good to soft) in October. 3 lb rise fair but this is tougher. 10yo who is on a career-high mark after Kelso win; has run well here and is not ruled out.

14:05 Doncaster Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Victory in this race 12 months ago formed part of an excellent season for FORWARD PLAN, which saw him go on to get pipped in the Great Yorkshire Chase here before lifting Kempton's Coral Trophy. He returned with a satisfactory fourth in the Badger Beer and should be cherry-ripe to defend his title. The weather put paid to Gaboriot's Becher bid last week, but his Grand Sefton third suggested he is still on the way up. Does He Know's two Cheltenham fourths have been solid and he is back to the mark off which he won the Grimthorpe.

GABORIOT looks set for another productive campaign judged on his solid reappearance third in the Grand Sefton at Aintree where he shaped as though the return to this trip was very much in order. He is marginally preferred to last year's winner Forward Plan, who is greatly respected given his broadly progressive profile and despite the fact that he is 12 lb higher in the weights this time. Does He Know is also high on the shortlist and don't be surprised to see Erne River go well at a price.

The step back up in trip could be ideal for Grand Sefton third GABORIOT (nap) and he earns the vote ahead of Sail Away.

1	4 1st (4) (15/8 +79%) Wyenot		1.875 15/8(+79%)																															(4) Wyenot 15/8, Resumed with success in 2m4f handicap at Cheltenham in October before backing it up with a good fourth of 10 there 28 days ago. Not dismissed. Improving; made all in Cheltenham handicap in October; fourth there last time; in the mix.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 +40%) Ottizzini		4.5 9/2(+40%)																															(2) Ottizzini 9/2, Fairly useful Irish hurdler who resumed winning ways at Ayr in November. Pulled up in handicap at Haydock (24.3f, heavy) 21 days ago. Sort to get back on track though. Ran poorly in competitive race at Haydock last time; up in grade here.
3	3 3rd (3) (2/1 -200%) West Balboa		2 2/1(-200%)																															(3) West Balboa 2/1, Very useful winning hurdler. Sent chasing this term and almost unseated rider last when fourth at Worcester before considerately handled when fifth at Bangor. Leading form claims reverted to this sphere. Excuses for two unplaced chase runs; clear pick on hurdles form; major player.
4	1 4th (1) (10/3 +26%) Gale Mahler		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(1) Gale Mahler 10/3, Likeable mare who made it 6 wins on the spin in listed hurdle at Galway (2m) in July. Below par on her last two runs though, a well-held third of five in Grade 2 novice at Cheltenham last time. Can bounce back. Won first four hurdles races but below par on last two; needs to get back on track.

14:40 Doncaster Conditions Hurdle (Class 1) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Things haven't exactly gone to plan for WEST BALBOA over fences so far this season, but reverting to hurdles could see her bounce right back to form. Dan Skelton's mare is 12lb and upwards ahead of these rivals on official ratings and anything like her third-placed effort at the Aintree Festival in April would make her extremely hard to beat. Gale Mahler stretches out in distance following two satisfactory performances in Grade 2 company at Cheltenham and she rates the biggest threat. Wyenot may prove best of the remaining trio.

WEST BALBOA holds major form claims sent back hurdling after failing to hit top form in a couple of chasing runs this term so looks the way to go. Multiple-winner Gale Mahler hasn't been at her best the last twice but still merits consideration, with Irish-raider Ottizzini and in-form Wyenot both in the mix too.

There have been excuses for WEST BALBOA's two defeats over fences this autumn and she's the one to beat back over hurdles.

1	2 1st (2) (15/2 -15%) Jungle Jack		7.5 15/2(-15%)																															(2) Jungle Jack 15/2, 6/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (19.6f, soft) 31 days ago. Blinkers back on. Should put up a solid effort. Returned from break with encouraging 4th at Bangor; shaped as though he may improve for it.
2	3 2nd (3) (13/8 +54%) Altobelli		1.625 13/8(+54%)																															(3) Altobelli 13/8, Won twice (including first time up) in 2022/23 and ran right up to best when placed in a pair of 2m Ascot handicaps at the end of last year. Ended last season with a disappointing run in the Betfair Hurdle at Newbury but his overall record is positive. Placed in two warm handicaps at Ascot last season and goes well fresh; on the shortlist.
3	4 3rd (4) (10/3 +33%) Norman Fletcher		3.333333 10/3(+33%)																															(4) Norman Fletcher 10/3, Showed fairly useful form when landing a maiden/novice hurdle last winter and got firmly back on track when knuckling down well to land a 5-runner handicap at Huntingdon last month. Deserves respect. Won at Huntingdon last time and this progressive 5yo may take a 6lb rise in his stride.
4	8 4th (8) (16/1 -14%) Lemoncello		16 16/1(-14%)																															(8) Lemoncello 16/1, Fairly useful form over hurdles and fences in France in 2023. Off ove a year prior to laboured effort at Bangor on British debut, so needs to put that firmly behind him. Ex-French 5yo who represents in-form yard, but he was pulled up on his stable debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (22/1 -22%) Brucio		22 22/1(-22%)																															(5) Brucio 22/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Thirteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, good to soft, 16/1) 42 days ago. Has a bit to prove and mark still looks stiff. Tailed off on comeback but lightly raced and was progressive last season.
6th	1 6th (1) (22/1 -144%) Pembroke		22 22/1(-144%)																															(1) Pembroke 22/1, Useful novice chaser last term but form dipped towards the end of the season and he hasn't fired back over hurdles since returning. Reappeared with fair sixth in Welsh Champion Hurdle but well beaten at Carlisle since.
7th	7 7th (7) (5/1 +0%) Deploy To Spy		5 5/1(+0%)																															(7) Deploy To Spy 5/1, Runner-up in sole bumper and has won each of his three completed starts over hurdles, well on top at the finish when landing an Aintree handicap last month. Looks the one to beat with further progress on the cards. Completed hat-trick when winning on handicap debut and he could continue to progress.
8th	6 8th (6) (12/1 -60%) Lily Du Berlais		12 12/1(-60%)																															(6) Lily Du Berlais 12/1, Dual-bumper winner who doubled her hurdling tally at Kelso in the spring but returned with a tame effort in Newton Novices' Hurdle at Haydock three weeks ago. Could strip fitter for that. Things clicked in the spring and she may have needed her comeback run three weeks ago.

15:15 Doncaster Handicap Hurdle (Class 2) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Deploy To Spy is improving all the time and warrants plenty of respect as he bids to make it four wins in a row, but NORMAN FLETCHER rates the one to beat with stronger form in the book. He was a little unlucky when beaten by subsequent winner Impero at Cheltenham before overcoming a few sloppy jumps to win comfortably at Huntingdon. With a further 6lb rise deemed fair, he should run a big race under regular rider James Turner. Of the others, Jungle Jack has a definite chance following a pleasing comeback effort at Bangor.

DEPLOY TO SPY is firmly on the up and was going away at the finish when winning at Aintree, so he gets the nod over Altobelli, who should be tuned up for this reappearance. Norman Fletcher is another one to consider in an interesting contest.

This could go to ALTOBELLI, who was placed in some warm handicaps last season and goes well fresh. Deploy To Spy is a danger.

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.
