1	2 1st (2) (7/1 -27%) Issam		7 7/1(-27%)																															(2) Issam 7/1, Won twice last season and returned with a rallying fourth in Welsh Champion Hurdle at Ffos Las in October. Poor effort at Newbury next time but took a step back in the right direction at this track (18.5f, soft) since. Others more appealing on chase debut. Not badly treated on peak hurdle form; perhaps lacks the same potential as some of these.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/6 +44%) Pic Roc		0.833333 5/6(+44%)																															(1) Pic Roc 5/6, Useful winning hurdler who ran two crackers in Sandown handicaps to end last season. Has all the hallmarks of a useful chaser and, despite departing early on return at Carlisle in November, gave a suggestion after 7 months off that that will prove the case. Remains an exciting prospect. Smart novice hurdler; rather unlucky to come down on chase debut; lots of potential.
3	4 3rd (4) (13/2 -8%) Denemethy		6.5 13/2(-8%)																															(4) Denemethy 13/2, Irish point winner who made it third time lucky under Rules when landing a Wincanton maiden hurdle in March. Low-key return/chasing debut here but opened his account in this sphere at the second attempt albeit fortuitously at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to soft) on Boxing Day. Now 4 lb higher. More needed than at Market Rasen but the potential is there to rate higher.
4	3 4th (3) (7/2 -40%) Alcedo		3.5 7/2(-40%)																															(3) Alcedo 7/2, Useful bumper performer who shrugged off a disappointing hurdle debut at Chepstow in October 2023 when running out an easy winner of a 16-runner maiden here 2 months later. Ran well next time, then pulled up in Prestige Novices' at Haydock 11 months ago. Notable chasing debutant on return. Progressive hurdler and had excuses the final time; improvement to come now chasing.
5	5 |F| (5) (9/1 +55%) Astronomic View		9 9/1(+55%)																															(5) Astronomic View 9/1, Wide-margin success at Warwick (26f, heavy) in March did his mark no favours but ran creditably after 7 months off when third at Newton Abbot (21.5f) in October. Struggled in stronger company the last twice and now attentions are turned to the larger obstacles. Yard form a worry. Edged back down the weights ahead of this chasing debut but others are more intriguing.
6	6 |PU| (6) (100/1 +50%) Wellwillya		100 100/1(+50%)																															(6) Wellwillya 100/1, Took form up a notch when getting off the mark on chasing bow in 12-runner handicap chase here in October. Not in the same form at Hereford next time but took a step back in the right direction when fourth over C&D last month. Faces a struggle from miles out of the weights here. Has won here over fences but he's a mile out of the weights on this occasion.

13:38 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Although he made it no further than the fifth fence on his chase/seasonal bow at Carlisle 63 days ago, it is too soon to write off Pic Roc in this discipline. However, DENEMETHY scored on his second attempt over fences at Market Rasen on Boxing Day and that experience could prove crucial. Issam and Alcedo are making their debuts over the larger obstacles and neither can be discounted.

PIC ROC may have departed early on his return/chase debut at Carlisle, but he has all the hallmarks of a useful chaser and is fancied to make amends provided he's none the worse from that spill. The main danger may emerge from Alcedo, who hasn't been seen since being pulled up in the Prestige Novices' at Haydock 11 months ago but rates as a notable chasing debutant for Venetia Williams. Denemethy, who was a fortunate winner last time, completes the shortlist.

Ben Pauling has a strong hand in this division and PIC ROC can join the party by making amends for his unlucky fall at Carlisle.

1	8 1st (8) (10/3 -11%) Saint Anapolino		3.333333 10/3(-11%)																															(8) Saint Anapolino 10/3, Successful on sole outing in point bumpers and has displayed ability under Rules, albeit he didn't look straighforward at Uttoxeter last month, carrying his head awkwardly. Has shown he's up to winning one of these and jumped out to his right the last time.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/5 +0%) As The Fella Says		0.8 4/5(+0%)																															(1) As The Fella Says 4/5, £60,000 after winning an Irish point. Made a promising start to his hurdle career for top new stable when second of 11 over 21f at Warwick (soft) last month. Leading claims with improvement likely. Sets the standard on his second at Warwick and there's surely more to come.
3	11 3rd (11) (125/1 -400%) Reel Orange		125 125/1(-400%)																															(11) Reel Orange 125/1, Fair form when placed twice in bumpers (for Sam Curling in Ireland first occasion) but didn't get near that level switched to hurdling over C&D a month ago. Went off at 33-1 for hurdling debut here over 2m and never played a part.
4	13 4th (13) (250/1 -150%) What U Wanna Do Is		250 250/1(-150%)																															(13) What U Wanna Do Is 250/1, Minor promise only so far and looks a handicap project. Low-level form in two bumpers and in a couple of hurdles at this track; very opposable.
5th	6 5th (6) (25/1 -14%) Pyleigh Master		25 25/1(-14%)																															(6) Pyleigh Master 25/1, Blue Bresil gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Go Steady. Dam fairly useful 19f/21f hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Successful sole outing in point bumpers in February but proved too free to show a great deal in a course bumper during the spring. Moved yards. Point bumper winner; too keen when third in a bumper here (went off favourite).
6th	14 6th (14) (150/1 -50%) Close Combat		150 150/1(-50%)																															(14) Close Combat 150/1, Kessaar gelding. Closely related to 7f/1m winner Naifah and half-brother to 2 winners. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful 2m hurdle winner Duty. Too green to show much in a course bumper. It wasn't a bad junior bumper in which he plugged on into mid-division here in October.
7th	3 7th (3) (80/1 +20%) Diamond Days		80 80/1(+20%)																															(3) Diamond Days 80/1, In good hands but looks limited on early evidence. Looked wayward on his hurdling debut and then beaten a long way at Chepstow.
8th	2 8th (2) (200/1 -100%) Bollin Thou		200 200/1(-100%)																															(2) Bollin Thou 200/1, Bollin Eric gelding. Half-brother to fair chaser Kayf Thou. Dam (c131/h142) 2¼m-3m hurdle/chase winner. Big price but displayed some ability when mid-field in a Chepstow bumper in January 2024 but never really involved on last month's hurdles bow. Tailed off in a bumper for previous yard and in a maiden hurdle for current one.
9th	10 9th (10) (200/1 -300%) Only Gossip		200 200/1(-300%)																															(10) Only Gossip 200/1, Winning pointer but showed nothing on hurdles debut at Uttoxeter. Returning from a long absence when pulled up in a novice at Uttoxeter (2m6f, soft; 25-1).
12	12 |F| (12) (22/1 -83%) Somethingtosomeone		22 22/1(-83%)																															(12) Somethingtosomeone 22/1, Hooded (left off here) and encouraging Rules debut when third of 7 in novice hurdle at Wincanton.. Also runner-up on sole start in Irish points so can take a step forward. Beaten 22l in a maiden for mares at Wincanton and has to step up by quite a bit.
10th	9 10th (9) (200/1 -400%) Chosen Bae		200 200/1(-400%)																															(9) Chosen Bae 200/1, Placed in Irish points but pulled up on Newton Abbot hurdle debut in July 2023 and beaten a long way on recent comeback run at Uttoxeter where he sported a first-time hood/tongue strap (both retained). Placed in two points but instantly opposable on what she's shown under rules.
11th	4 11th (4) (150/1 -275%) Gorcombe And Wise		150 150/1(-275%)																															(4) Gorcombe And Wise 150/1, Telescope gelding. Half-brother to poor hurdler/fair chaser Findusatgorcombe and poor 2¼m chase winner Gorcombe Moonshine. Half-brother to winning chasers over longer distances and one for down the line.
12th	5 12th (5) (100/1 -186%) Lahinch Strand		100 100/1(-186%)																															(5) Lahinch Strand 100/1, Kayf Tara gelding. Brother to useful hurdler The Friday Man. Dam 2m-2½m hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Muinor impact in a Newbury bumper a year ago and since left Alan King. Beaten just under 20l in a Newbury bumper 12 months ago (soft) having raced keenly.
7	7 |PU| (7) (2/1 +67%) Roe And Co		2 2/1(+67%)																															(7) Roe And Co 2/1, Fetched £58,000 after landing a maiden point in November 2023 and it will be very interesting to see how he shapes up in the betting ahead of this Rules debut having undergone a wind op. Irish point winner in late 2023 and the second is now a very useful hurdler.

14:08 Exeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

AS THE FELLA SAYS proved too keen when weakening into second on his Rules debut over 2m5f at Warwick last month. The Soldier Of Fortune gelding should appreciate this stiff 2m1f trip and a breakthrough victory in this sphere looks imminent. Saint Anapolino has hit the frame on both outings over hurdles to date and the six-year-old is feared most, ahead of point-to-point winner Roe And Co.

Point-winner AS THE FELLA SAYS made a promising start to his Rules career when runner-up at Warwick a month ago and with this drop in trip not expected to be a problem, he can go one place better. With Saint Anapolino looking far from straightforward last time, Roe And Co could emerge as the chief threat.

Nicky Henderson's AS THE FELLA SAYS drops back to 2m from 2m5f but on a stiff track and in a very winnable maiden.

1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +8%) Well Dick		6 6/1(+8%)																															(7) Well Dick 6/1, Scored at Warwick last spring but that success is bookmarked with non-completions, including when again pulled up on return/debut for new yard here last month. Hard to recommend. All or nothing for previous yard and he ran a quiet first race on debut for this one.
2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 -50%) Illico De Cotte		3 3/1(-50%)																															(1) Illico De Cotte 3/1, Irish point/maiden hurdle winner who showed much-improved form when making a winning chase debut at Carlisle (3¼m, good to soft) in October. Performed to a similar level when third off 7 lb higher at the same course last month and this 7-y-o remains with potential as a chaser. Made a bright start over fences and latest Carlisle form has worked out well.
3	8 3rd (8) (7/1 +36%) Neo King		7 7/1(+36%)																															(8) Neo King 7/1, Multiple point winner and second in a hunter chase at Down Royal last March. Changed hands for £20,000 and while he hasn't troubled the judge in 3 starts over hurdles for present connections, it would be no surprise at all were he to take a big step forward on this handicap chase debut. Hasn't been offering a lot over hurdles but this should be more his game.
6	6 |PU| (6) (9/2 +25%) Pachacuti		4.5 9/2(+25%)																															(6) Pachacuti 9/2, Wincanton winner on final start last season and all the better for his reappearance spin when going close at that course early last month. By no means disgraced with first-time blinkers (retained) replacing cheekpieces when fourth of 11 over this C&D (soft) since and he has to enter calculations. Below par in new blinkers here last time and those aids are persevered with.
3	3 |PU| (3) (9/1 +10%) Broomfield Present		9 9/1(+10%)																															(3) Broomfield Present 9/1, Useful hurdler (2-3 in that sphere) and promising start over fences when third in a C&D handicap on his seasonal reappearance last term. Things haven't gone to plan since, though, failing to complete on 3 of his 4 subsequent chase starts (well held on the occasion that he did get round). Had some misfortune over fences but lightly raced and conditions won't faze him.
4	4 |PU| (4) (10/3 +26%) Livin On Luco		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(4) Livin On Luco 10/3, onsistent rather than progressive over hurdles and bettered that form, albeit somewhat fortuitously, when making a winning start over fences at Newton Abbot on return in October. It was a pretty strong race in which he struggled at Cheltenham next time and it's still early days for him as a chaser. Solid run of form ended at Cheltenham; can be given another chance back in the mud.
2	2 |PU| (2) (12/1 +14%) Feivel		12 12/1(+14%)																															(2) Feivel 12/1, Dual hurdles winner here last term and ran a stormer back chasing in the Southern National on return at Fontwell in November. However, he posted a poor effort reverting to the smaller obstacles at Calisle since and is currently 11 lb above the mark off which he gained his sole chase success. Capable performer on his day but has become hard to predict over hurdles and fences.
5	5 |PU| (5) (20/1 -82%) Imperial Alex		20 20/1(-82%)																															(5) Imperial Alex 20/1, Really found the winning habit in the spring, completing the hat-trick with a narrow success in a Class 2 Uttoxeter handicap in May. However, he has failed to shine in 2 subsequent starts (both at Uttoxeter) and now finds himself with a point to prove. Hat-trick last year but disappointing in his last two races.

14:38 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow

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

ILLICO DE COTTE has improved for the switch to the larger obstacles with a victory at Carlisle in October backed up with a placed effort at the same venue last month. The seven-year-old remains unexposed in this discipline and appears to have been found an excellent opportunity to strike. The return to a softer surface may be in the favour of Livin On Luco having struggled at Cheltenham last month, while Southern National runner-up Feivel completes the shortlist.

It's highly likely that NEO KING's mark for this handicap chase debut seriously underestimates him and this multiple point winner shades preference ahead of the Illico de Cotte, who has taken well to fences and remains open to improvement in this sphere. Pachacuti hasn't done much wrong since switched to the larger obstacles and he is best of the rest.

He has a lot of weight but ILLICO DE COTTE (nap) has raised his game over fences and the third at Carlisle reads all the better now.

1	5 1st (5) (5/2 +38%) Passing Kate		2.5 5/2(+38%)																															(5) Passing Kate 5/2, Gained third handicap hurdle win (all on soft/heavy) when comfortably seeing off 5 rivals on 2m Leicester reappearance early last month. Wasn't in the same form at Chepstow since but there's a good chance that she will take to fences and, if that proves to be the case, this 8-y-o will have a chance. Mark hit hard for recent win over hurdles but she's bred to make a chaser.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/3 +76%) Valirann Gold		3.333333 10/3(+76%)																															(6) Valirann Gold 10/3, Fair chaser who didn't run badly when third at Fontwell (17.8f, soft) on Boxing Day and he faces a stiff task from 8 lb out of the weights. Finds winning hard and that will again be the case here from 8lb out of the weights.
3	1 3rd (1) (8/1 -100%) Mr Grey Sky		8 8/1(-100%)																															(1) Mr Grey Sky 8/1, Won a pair of 2m handicap chases in the early stages of last season but found things tougher in the second half of that campaign and reappearance effort at Ludlow lacked spark. Needs to bounce back. Presence of a fellow front-runner did him no favours on his comeback at Ludlow.
4	2 4th (2) (7/1 -180%) Doyouknowwhatimean		7 7/1(-180%)																															(2) Doyouknowwhatimean 7/1, Scored in the mud at Lingfield and Stratford last winter and ran creditably after 8 months off when third at Newton Abbot in October. Followed that with a poor effort (shaped as though amiss) at Chepstow but it wouldn't be any great surprise were he to get back on track here. Every chance provided he can bounce back from a miserable run at Chepstow.
5th	3 5th (3) (10/1 -43%) Golden Whisky		10 10/1(-43%)																															(3) Golden Whisky 10/1, This mark is a lenient one judged on what he showed a couple of seasons back and there were some positives to take from his second run of the present campaign at Leicester where he was third in a 6-runner handicap. However, failed to build on that at the same course recently. Not in bad form after an absence but doesn't look a winner waiting to happen.
4	4 |PU| (4) (4/1 -33%) Polisud		4 4/1(-33%)																															(4) Polisud 4/1, Fairly useful hurdle/chase winner in France who took advantage of his falling mark in a Newcastle handicap hurdle last spring. Has made the frame all 3 subsequent starts (all over hurdles), including on return/debut for new yard at Lingfield, and he is of strong interest back chasing here. Respectable first run for this yard but does look a shade high in the weights.
7	7 |PU| (7) (11/1 +78%) I Love You Sivola		11 11/1(+78%)																															(7) I Love You Sivola 11/1, French recruit who has essentially struggled for this yard and easy to oppose from out of the handicap. 1-35; struggles to get competitive these days and he's 13lb out of the weights.

15:08 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow

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

MR GREY SKY was let down by his jumping when returning at Ludlow in November and the handicapper has given him a chance by dropping him 3lb. Softer ground is likely to aid his cause in what looks to be a winnable contest on paper. Doyouknowwhatimean pulled up at Chepstow last month but isn't one to underestimate, while Polisud is of interest judged on his chase form in France.

POLISUD was sold out of Micky Hammond's yard for only £4,000 but shaped with encouragement on his reappearance for new connections in a Lingfield handicap hurdle last month and makes plenty of appeal with that run under his belt now back over fences. Multiple hurdles winner Passing Kate could be the one to follow the selection home, granted a clear round on this chase debut, while Doyouknowwhatimean is also accorded respect, despite misfiring at Chepstow recently.

Without a one-dimensional front-runner to steal his thunder this time, a chance is taken on MR GREY SKY returning to form.

1	6 1st (6) (7/2 +53%) Coconut Twist		3.5 7/2(+53%)																															(6) Coconut Twist 7/2, Point winner and made a successful chase debut starting out for this yard at Newton Abbot in May. In-and-out form since but can't be discounted back in this sphere with cheekpieces refitted. Placed over fences here last time and rated 5lb lower in this sphere.
2	8 2nd (8) (15/2 -7%) Olivia Kate		7.5 15/2(-7%)																															(8) Olivia Kate 15/2, Advanced her form when easily getting off the mark at Ludlow in November but not in anything like the same form when seventh at Uttoxeter since. Needs to bounce back. Too up-and-down for comfort and this ground could be too soft for her.
3	14 3rd (14) (11/1 -47%) Sindabella		11 11/1(-47%)																															(14) Sindabella 11/1, Resumed winning ways on the back of a wind op in 2m2f handicap here in October and not disgraced here both runs since, fifth of 18 over C&D on latter occasion. Shortlisted. Dual course winner but finished weakly here 25 days ago, beaten about 17l.
4	16 4th (16) (14/1 -40%) Von Hallers		14 14/1(-40%)																															(16) Von Hallers 14/1, 3/1, first form shown over hurdles when fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Hereford (19.7f, good) 91 days ago. Needs to build on it here. Not a bad latest effort back hurdling at Hereford and going further here should benefit.
5th	11 5th (11) (40/1 -100%) Caspers Court		40 40/1(-100%)																															(11) Caspers Court 40/1, C&D winner but he came in last of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (23.8f, good to soft) 81 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with work to do. Ran just the one race of any real note last year and he's an 11yo now.
6th	1 6th (1) (9/2 +55%) Push To Pass		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(1) Push To Pass 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden who came in only eleventh of 17 on his handicap debut at Chepstow (19.4f, good) 52 days ago. Needs a big step forward. Quiet handicap debut at Chepstow but his yard's horses have turned a corner recently.
7th	4 7th (4) (9/1 +10%) Chauffeur Driven		9 9/1(+10%)																															(4) Chauffeur Driven 9/1, Still a maiden hurdler but he posted a respectable third of 11 in handicap hurdle over C&D (heavy) 12 days ago. Merits consideration off an easing mark. Merely plodded on past beaten horses for his remote third over C&D 12 days ago (soft).
8th	7 8th (7) (10/1 +0%) William Philo		10 10/1(+0%)																															(7) William Philo 10/1, Scored over fences at Fontwell in April 2023 (final outing for Robert Walford). Much his best run for current yard when resuming from 11-month absence with excellent second of 11 in handicap hurdle over C&D (heavy) 12 days ago. Weighted to go close off an unchanged mark. Second here on New Year's Day after an absence; not guaranteed to build on that.
9th	2 9th (2) (10/1 0%) Bobby's Fortune		10 10/1(0%)																															(2) Bobby's Fortune 10/1, A fair bumper winner who has been brought along steadily in this sphere, coming in fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Bangor (16.7f, heavy) 31 days ago. Up in trip and much respected now going into handicaps. Bumper winner; modest in novice hurdles but handicaps are now the right option.
10th	10 10th (10) (17/2 -13%) Newtonian		8.5 17/2(-13%)																															(10) Newtonian 17/2, Got off the mark at Warwick in May and posted solid efforts to twice make the frame efforts upon return in October. Struggling when unseated last at Hereford 33 days ago though so needs to get back on track. He was beaten when unseating last month at Hereford; struggles to win.
11th	3 11th (3) (10/1 +29%) Wot You Wearing		10 10/1(+29%)																															(3) Wot You Wearing 10/1, Made an encouraging start to present campaign when just touched off in 25.5f Hereford handicap but hasn't backed it up and pulled up in 2m5f Ffos Las handicap last time. Others appeal more. Diminishing returns since going close at Hereford in October.
12th	15 12th (15) (66/1 -164%) Hi Riko		66 66/1(-164%)																															(15) Hi Riko 66/1, Maiden hurdler/chaser who came in only ninth of 10 in 3m handicap hurdle at Taunton on his second run for current yard 46 days ago. Hood goes back on now with more required. Twice runner-up last season but no sign of that form so far this campaign; still a maiden.
13th	12 13th (12) (22/1 -10%) Stage Show		22 22/1(-10%)																															(12) Stage Show 22/1, Fair maiden on Flat and more like it over hurdles with a brace of fourth-place finishes in handicaps around 17f this autumn. Didn't appear to stay when stepped up to this sort of trip at Fontwell last time, though. 2m5f on soft ground didn't look an ideal fit last time at Fontwell.
5	5 |PU| (5) (28/1 +15%) Demilion		28 28/1(+15%)																															(5) Demilion 28/1, Fairly useful handicapper at best on Flat (stays 12.5f) for Charlie Johnston but ended 2023 out of sorts. Yet to get near that level over hurdles so is hard to make a case for despite a falling mark. 12l fifth over C&D before always outpaced over 2m at Chepstow; respected back up in trip.
9	9 |PU| (9) (80/1 -300%) Jewel Eyed Judy		80 80/1(-300%)																															(9) Jewel Eyed Judy 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden who offered little on handicap debut when fifth of 11 at Plumpton (20.5f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Others are preferred. Five heavy defeats, including on her switch to handicaps at Ffos Las.

15:38 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

WILLIAM PHILO outran huge odds to finish a promising second over C&D last time out and he can prove that was no fluke by going one better off the same mark. That may be at the main expense of two-time course winner Sindabella, and Olivia Kate, who has strong claims on the form of her Ludlow success two starts back. Others to note include Chauffeur Driven, Coconut Twist and Newtonian.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and WILLIAM PHILO looks the way to go on the back of his excellent recent C&D second. Chauffeur Driven is another weighted to have a big say and next on the list ahead of Sindabella and Bobby's Fortune.

Wide open. With his yard back in better form now, a chance is taken that PUSH TO PASS can run better than on his handicap debut.

16:08 Exeter NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

In what could be an informative bumper, a tentative vote goes to newcomer UPTOWN DANDY, who is a half-brother to talented Grade 2 winner Bill Joyce. The Ben Pauling stable knows how to ready one first time out and he may have too much for fellow debutants Limerick Lass and Scorpio Rising. An easy winner at Uttoxeter last April, Realco is another to consider on his first run for the Dan Skelton team.

UPTOWN DANDY is a half-brother to a dual winner in this sphere and represents an excellent stable, so he gets the marginal vote on debut ahead of Realco, who was last seen in April scoring readily for a different yard. Scoprio Risin is another notable newcomer.

Form choice REALCO is the selection but allow for flexibility as any strong market moves among the remainder should be heeded.

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.
