Soul Icon

1.25
5/4(+9%)
(1) Soul Icon 5/4, Multiple winner over hurdles who showed improved form to finally get off the mark over fences in Grade 2 handicap at Kempton in December. Shaped as if still in form when sixth over a longer trip at Cheltenham since. Probably the one to beat back in calmer waters.
Kept on gamely to win Grade 2 Kempton handicap over Christmas; commands respect here.

Grade 2 novice winner in December and ran at least as well in recent Pendil at Kempton.

(3) Range 11/4, Chepstow novice hurdle winner last season and also scored at the same course on second chase start in November. Didn't jump so well on his next 2 starts but latest hurdle effort shows he's still on form if avoiding mistakes back chasing.
Fell in two of his first four chases but has fighting chance if judged on his Chepstow win.

14:10 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 3) 18f Race Class Flow

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

MARK OF GOLD bounced back to form with a creditable third over further in the Pendil recently and dropping back in trip looks like a good move. The eight-year-old scored over 2m3f in a Grade 2 at Ascot in December and the 3lb he receives from Soul Icon could be crucial as that gelding looks to rediscover the form that saw him land the Desert Orchid at Kempton over Christmas. The Sam Thomas stable has been in excellent form of late and Range cannot be ruled out either.

A small field but it's a good-quality opener. If SOUL ICON is in the same form as when winning the Desert Orchid at Kempton over Christmas he might be able to give the weight away.

After a string of near-misses over fences last year, SOUL ICON deserved his Kempton win over Christmas. He might be the answer here.

(3) In Limbo 8/13, Showed promise when placed over C&D and in 2m conditions event at Newbury but only fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Sandown (19.8f) last time. Worth another chance.
Fair form when making the frame on first two hurdling starts; strong each-way claims.

14:40 Exeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Entered in both the Supreme and Turners at the Festival next week, GOOD AND CLEVER sets a lofty standard on form having finished an encouraging third in a Grade 1 at the Dubin Racing Festival last month. Warren Greatrex's charge can get off the mark over hurdles, with Wincanton third It's A Breeze looking best placed to chase him home. In Limbo can also have a say in proceedings.

Warren Greatrex's GOOD AND CLEVER has acquitted himself well in Grade 1 company this season so looks to face a straightforward task back in ordinary maiden company here. In Limbo also has his sights lowered and could prove the pick of the rest ahead of Wincanton third It's A Breeze.

It's hard to oppose GOOD AND CLEVER, who drops in grade after two commendable Grade 1 placings.

(7) King Of The Lake 9/5, On a hat-trick after easy wins in conditional jockeys' handicaps at Wincanton (21f) and Newbury (20.5f) under Chad Bament in recent weeks. Escapes a penalty and will be hard to beat if as effective back over shorter.
Transformed by a wind op this year; 11lb ahead of the handicapper on this hat-trick bid.

(10) Valadon 7/1, Dual winner in juvenile hurdles last winter. Didn't take to chasing on reappearance but fared better back hurdling when third of 6 in 19f Taunton handicap in January.
Just a respectable third at Taunton last time; others here have more pressing claims.

Made just a satisfactory stable debut last month; needs to have come on for the run.

Won run-of-the-mill Taunton maiden last month but has more on his plate here.

(8) Mostly Sunny 22/1, A 3-time winner on the Flat who struck twice over hurdles for Dan Skelton at the start of the season. Didn't offer much obvious promise in 2 soft-ground handicaps back from a break last month but the return to a sounder surface may help him.
On a good mark now but did not get competitive on either outing last month.

Took well to hurdling last season but has some questions to answer on this stable debut.

15:10 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

KING OF THE LAKE has been in the form of his life since undergoing wind surgery and an 11lb rise for his most recent success at Newbury looks manageable. Dropping back in trip should not inconvenience either and he gets the vote ahead of Imaginarium, who bounced back to form with a taking success at Huntingdon last time out. Cornish Storm and Thistle Be The One are likely to be thereabouts as well.

If KING OF THE LAKE can cope with the drop back in trip he should prove hard to beat off the same mark as when scoring by 10 lengths at Newbury last Friday. Imaginarium made a successful start to his handicap hurdle career at Huntingdon last month and is second choice ahead of Paso Doble.

Unpenalised for his eased-down win at Newbury a week ago, KING OF THE LAKE can complete a hat-trick.

Yet to add to his France chasing success in 2022 and 3lb out of the weights today.

15:45 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Having filled the runner-up spot on his last four outings, Joe Cotton cannot be faulted for his consistency. However, a further 3lb rise in the ratings will only make life tougher for the seven-year-old and he may have to play second fiddle once more, with LARGY FORCE getting the vote. Warren Greatrex's mare arrives on the back of a solid second at Leicester and she makes most appeal racing off an unchanged mark. Haas Boy is also noted.

Recent Leicester runner-up LARGY FORCE rates the pick of these weights so is fancied to gain a deserved breakthrough victory at the chief expense of the consistent Hatos. Joe Cotton and Haas Boy both need factoring into this open handicap too.

A cosy winner on his chasing debut in January, CAPTAIN BOUDET is excused a subsequent defeat on heavy ground and gets the vote.

16:20 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Another Lord returned to form with a respectable second at Uttoxeter last month and is respected. Regardless, SHOT BOII finished fourth in a stronger class 4 event at Chepstow last time out and David Pipe's inmate is a shade more compelling. Bampton Star finished behind the selection in sixth that day, but the eight-year-old isn't taken lightly reunited with Chad Bament.

A few of these arrive with question marks against them so this looks a good opportunity for SHOT BOII to capitalise on a lenient mark and resume winning ways. Chepstow scorer Lightonthewing appeals as the chief threat back chasing ahead of last year's victor Bampton Star.

Low-mileage 8yo BAMPTON STAR (nap) is sure to be very well suited by today's return to Exeter and can record a third C&D win.

Has matched that form this season with creditable fifth of 10 at Ffos Las (21.9f) in November but slightly below-form when finishing midfield at Taunton the following month. Mark is falling but may still have a bit to find.

Still lightly-raced and further improvement not ruled out now back up in trip.

Hasn't been anywhere near that level this season, pulling up on her last two starts, latest when returned to hurdles in January. Connections try blinkers, which need to spark a revival.

Misfired at Wincanton next time but it's still early days and she could be seen in a better light now pitched into a handicap wearing first-time tongue tie.

Well beaten on handicap debut but that came after a layoff; remains unexposed.

16:50 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

JACKSBAR produced a 20/1 surprise when scoring comfortably in this grade at Uttoxeter in December and she has been given a 9lb rise. Considering the manner of the victory that day, she looks the one to beat. Sweet Caryline finished a well-held second in a stronger event at Kempton last month and is respected off a 1lb lower rating. Prairie Queen showed more when fifth at Bangor latest and is another to note.

Having showed much improved form when getting off the mark at the sixth time of asking, JACKSBAR may be able to follow up that victory if in the same sort of form 3 months on. The biggest threat may come from Sweet Caryline who is also lightly-raced and has proved she can mix it at this level. Nobody's Perfect showed some promise on her final qualifying run and despite not running up to form last time, she has a chance if she can bounce back.

Jacksbar is respected but preference is for class-dropper SWEET CARYLINE, who kept on for a clear second at Kempton last month.

Coconut Twist

3.5
7/2(+50%)
(8) Coconut Twist 7/2, Landed a gamble back hurdling in 15-runner handicap at this track (21.6f, heavy) in January and built on that effort with an encouraging third of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) 26 days ago. Seems ground versatile and should run his race again with blinkers refitted.
Exploited lower hurdle mark with 2m5f win here in January; close up since; contender.

9/2(+55%)
(10) Scorsese 9/2, Showed fair form in maiden hurdles in Ireland but has been soundly beaten for current yard, although showed more promise in first-time cheekpieces when sixth of 8 at Southwell in November. Blinkers fitted instead and one to note in the market over a longer trip with a positive jockey booking.
Irish point winner; finding it a grind in handicaps and now up in trip; different headgear.

River Voyage

9/2(-157%)
(7) River Voyage 9/2, Revitalised on testing ground in February, second of 12 in handicap at Chepstow (23.6f) after 3 months off before winning a 6-runner handicap easily at Ffos Las (23f, heavy) later that month. Faces different conditions but is in excellent heart and has to be respected under a 7 lb penalty.
In good shape back from break; 4lb well in under penalty for wide-margin 3m win last week.

9/2(+44%)
(4) Native Moon 9/2, A trio of creditable efforts since joining this yard but has been making hard work of things in his races, finishing a well-held fourth of 14 at this venue (heavy, 21.6f) 2 weeks ago. While he may be better suited by the step up in trip/first-time blinkers, others are preferred on recent evidence.
Two fair runs at Taunton (3m); further adrift here since; blinkers replace cheekpieces.

Ri Na Cuirte

8/1(+20%)
(5) Ri Na Cuirte 8/1, Well-backed and much improved after 6 months off when narrowly landing a 3¼m Fontwell handicap hurdle in November. Matched that form with third in stronger race at Ascot (first 2 winners next time) a fortnight on and having flopped on chase debut 67 days ago, could well bounce back over hurdles.
Modest chase debut latest; in good form in staying handicap hurdles earlier; in contention.

17/2(+15%)
(11) Chauffeur Driven 17/2, Still a maiden but a change of headgear (visor which is retained) made the difference when bouncing back to form finishing second at this venue (21.6f heavy) 2 weeks ago. Has a chance if in the visor has similarly positive effect now stepping up in trip back on a sounder surface.
Back near best here (2m5f) last time but has unexposed rivals against him now.

(9) Daring Plan 14/1, Placed in a maiden/handicap at this course last season but hasn't been able to replicate that form over fences this season. Returns to smaller obstacles but others make more appeal on recent form.
Dropped right down weights now back hurdling but needs to prove he stays this far.

(2) All Inn Hand 14/1, Left bumper efforts behind when third in a maiden at Stratford (22f) on hurdles bow in October and caught the eye when bouncing back to form over an inadequate trip/under an inexperienced rider when rallying to finish fourth at Warwick (19f). Interesting back up in trip with Sean Bowen taking over.
Looked a stayer in the making over 2m6f in October; part to play now switched to handicap.

25/1(-79%)
(3) Rock On Cowboy 25/1, Showed promise in novice hurdles for Ben Pauling but regressed towards end of 2023 season. Took a step towards rediscovering his best form when third on stable debut (after 22-months off) at the start of February. That was encouraging but needs to prove he can back up that effort.
Kept good company for B Pauling; looked to retain ability back from absence for new yard.

(6) Can't Say 33/1, Suited by the longer trip when showing much improved form to win 3m Ffos Las handicap in May. Well-held fifth on his reappearance at this venue in January (may have needed the run) but disappointed when jumping poorly at Wincanton last month, pulling up. Cheekpieces on and has a bit to prove now.
Lightly raced; won his second handicap, over 3m on good to soft last May; minor form since.

Improved for step up to 3m in January; tailed off since; this is more her level.

(12) Alderley Charlie 66/1, No promise in his 3 qualifying runs and has fared little better in handicaps. Now upped in trip but has plenty to find from 4 lb out of the handicap.
Minor form so far, including in two handicaps; down the list from out of the weights.

17:22 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

RIVER VOYAGE justified favouritism in no uncertain terms when bolting up at Ffos Las on his latest outing and he has a 7lb penalty to carry for that success. If the seven-year-old remains in similar form, he will prove very hard to beat. Coconut Twist made the frame in this grade over an extended 2m3f at Chepstow last time and should go well, while Rock On Cowboy is another to watch out for.

ALL INN HAND shaped encouragingly when staying on over an inadequate trip last time and now facing a greater test of stamina, he makes plenty of each-way appeal with Sean Bowen taking over in the saddle. River Voyage will be facing quicker ground conditions but warrants plenty of respect on the back of his facile Ffos Las success, while the versatile Coconut Twist merits consideration following another creditable effort at Chepstow last month.

This isn't necessarily a shoo-in for RIVER VOYAGE but he was an untroubled winner at Ffos Las last week and is well in under a penalty.

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.
