Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (0.91/1 -10%) Pure Theatre	0.91 0.91/1(-10%)	(7) Pure Theatre 0.91/1, Posted promising second of 9 in novice at Chepstow (16f, soft) on hurdles bow 29 days ago. Entitled to build on that and looks the one to beat.
2	2 2nd (2) (3.5/1 +65%) Chantilly Haze	3.5 3.5/1(+65%)	(2) Chantilly Haze 3.5/1, Returned to form when second at Hereford last month but failed to repeat that effort last time and makes limited appeal.
3	10 3rd (10) (50/1 -25%) Jolie Baie	50 50/1(-25%)	(10) Jolie Baie 50/1, Offered little in a Huntingdon bumper on Rules debut in February and well held on hurdles bow at same course since.
4	11 4th (11) (9/1 -80%) Luna Run	9 9/1(-80%)	(11) Luna Run 9/1, Jukebox Jury filly. Dam 19f-23f hurdle winner, sister to very smart hurdler/top-class chaser (stayed 25f) The Storyteller. One to note on debut.
5th	12 5th (12) (150/1 -127%) Mairis Icon	150 150/1(-127%)	(12) Mairis Icon 150/1, Down the field in a couple of bumpers and can only be watched on first crack at hurdling.
6th	13 6th (13) (8/1 +64%) Quality	8 8/1(+64%)	(13) Quality 8/1, Well held in bumper/junior hurdle and was in remote fifth when coming down at Huntingdon last time.
7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -60%) Asian Spice	16 16/1(-60%)	(1) Asian Spice 16/1, Well held all 3 starts in bumpers but showed a bit more behind promising winner on last month's hurdles debut over C&D. Each-way claims if building on that.
8th	9 8th (9) (22/1 -38%) Grumpy Rosie	22 22/1(-38%)	(9) Grumpy Rosie 22/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. Merely hinted at ability when fifth of 11 in novice hurdle (125/1) at Warwick (21f, heavy) last month and will probably be seen in better light when sent handicapping.
9th	4 9th (4) (5.5/1 -22%) Hey Day Baby	5.5 5.5/1(-22%)	(4) Hey Day Baby 5.5/1, £45,000 buy after making it fourth time lucky in Irish points in November. Ran green when seventh of 13 in bumper at Southwell (15.8f, soft, 8/1) on NH debut last month. In good hands and could be a player on switch to hurdling.
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (200/1 -203%) Sweet Saffron	200 200/1(-203%)	(8) Sweet Saffron 200/1, Well held in a pair of bumpers and failed to beat a rival on sole completed start in this sphere.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (200/1 -100%) Midsummer Lass	200 200/1(-100%)	(5) Midsummer Lass 200/1, Offered little in a trio of starts in bumpers and can only be watched on hurdles debut.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (250/1 -150%) Mrs Jones	250 250/1(-150%)	(6) Mrs Jones 250/1, Tailed off both starts in point bumpers in late 2020 and no signs of promise on hurdles debut at Doncaster last month. .

LTO Selection:

17:00 Exeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 0.91/1 Pure Theatre seems to be the most promising horse, having finished second in its previous novice race and with the potential to build on that performance. 5.5/1 Hey Day Baby also has potential, having been purchased for a high price and with good prospects in hurdling. 9/1 Luna Run, with a strong pedigree, is a horse to note, but it is unclear how it will perform on its debut. The rest of the horses seem to have shown little promise or have not performed well in previous races.

A highly encouraging second on her hurdling debut at Chepstow, PURE THEATRE must hold every chance of getting off the mark with plenty of improvement expected. Better was expected of point-to-point winner Hey Day Baby on her Rules debut at Southwell but she could step forward, although Asian Spice may provide the chief threat after occupying the runner-up berth over C&D last month.

PURE THEATRE arrives on the back of an encouraging debut at Chepstow and can get off the mark in the opener. Hurdling-debutantes Luna Run and Hey Day Baby may provide the chief threat.

Anthony Honeyball's PURE THEATRE may only need a repeat of her second at Chepstow to take this uncompetitive opener.

17:35 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f - 18 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (3.5/1 +0%) Any Biscuits	3.5 3.5/1(+0%)	(5) Any Biscuits 3.5/1, Little impact in bumpers/maiden hurdles in Ireland but much more like it fitted with a tongue tie when landing a few bets at Market Rasen last month. No surprise were there more to come now he's up and running.
2	6 2nd (6) (18/1 +45%) Ooh Betty	18 18/1(+45%)	(6) Ooh Betty 18/1, Point winner who travelled kindly when fourth in 8-runner novice at Stratford on Rules debut in October. Also offered something to work on in a brace of novice events but low-key handicap debut needs casting aside.
3	11 3rd (11) (11/1 +89%) Hillsin	11 11/1(+89%)	(11) Hillsin 11/1, Modest maiden hurdler for Gavin Cromwell, but has finished well-beaten all 3 starts for his current yard.
4	2 4th (2) (6.5/1 -8%) Callisto's King	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(2) Callisto's King 6.5/1, Much improved when very good second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f) in November. Bumped into a well-treated rival so scope for better, particularly given the yard he represents.
5th	7 5th (7) (5.5/1 +21%) Getaway Tom	5.5 5.5/1(+21%)	(7) Getaway Tom 5.5/1, Signs of ability in bumper/novice hurdles and prominent in the betting for handicap debut upped to 20.5f, only to shape like a non-stayer. Back in trip with cheekpieces on.
6th	17 6th (17) (10/1 +50%) Mr Snow Way	10 10/1(+50%)	(17) Mr Snow Way 10/1, Half-brother to very smart hurdler/winning chaser Summerville Boy but just minor promise over hurdles so far. Needs to up his game.
7th	16 7th (16) (12/1 -20%) Testflight	12 12/1(-20%)	(16) Testflight 12/1, Third in a bumper in June and in the face of a more realistic assignment over hurdles, he fared better when third on handicap debut over 16.7f here in November. Off since but this slight step up in trip should suit.
8th	10 8th (10) (14/1 +44%) Ipsos Pierji	14 14/1(+44%)	(10) Ipsos Pierji 14/1, Little to get excited about in 4 starts and a tongue tie is now reached for.
9th	1 9th (1) (50/1 -213%) Lucky Draw	50 50/1(-213%)	(1) Lucky Draw 50/1, Modest on the Flat and stepped up on a very low-key start over hurdles when fourth at Ludlow 3 weeks ago. Opening mark hit as a result.
10th	18 10th (18) (50/1 -25%) Daany	50 50/1(-25%)	(18) Daany 50/1, Modest 1m winner on Flat but little to get excited about over hurdles.
11th	13 11th (13) (25/1 +0%) Coconut Twist	25 25/1(+0%)	(13) Coconut Twist 25/1, Unplaced in points and just poor form to date in this sphere, merely keeping on at the one pace at Newton Abbot a fortnight ago.
12th	3 12th (3) (9/1 +10%) Dom Bosco	9 9/1(+10%)	(3) Dom Bosco 9/1, Bumper efforts weren't devoid of promise. Achieved only modest form in maiden/novice hurdles and having shaped quite well on handicap debut at Huntingdon, he failed to build on that at Southwell.
13th	15 13th (15) (40/1 +20%) Libor Lad	40 40/1(+20%)	(15) Libor Lad 40/1, Down the field in a couple of bumpers and just modest form at best over hurdles.
14th	4 14th (4) (22/1 -38%) Kingfast	22 22/1(-38%)	(4) Kingfast 22/1, Fair performer on the Flat several years ago. Little in the way of promise over hurdles of late but he hasn't been with this yard long and offered a bit more at Hereford a month ago.
15th	9 15th (9) (20/1 -186%) Atlantic Fleet	20 20/1(-186%)	(9) Atlantic Fleet 20/1, €50,000 purchase who was better than the result in a Chepstow bumper on debut and similar comments apply switched to hurdling at Taunton in January. Not knocked about back at that venue last month and appeals as type to step up a lot now hurdling.
16th	14 16th (14) (14/1 -75%) Kings Justice	14 14/1(-75%)	(14) Kings Justice 14/1, Made more of an impact when creditable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f) in February. One to consider with prospect of more to come.
17th	8 17th (8) (28/1 -12%) Professor Calculus	28 28/1(-12%)	(8) Professor Calculus 28/1, Taunton winner in February but jumping rarely lacks fluency and that has held him back both starts since, including back over fences at Exeter 10 days ago.
18th	12 18th (12) (50/1 -213%) Blue Anchor	50 50/1(-213%)	(12) Blue Anchor 50/1, Beaten a long way on debut in a Warwick bumper and qualifying runs hardly brimming with promise. In very capable hands and surely has a bigger performance in her up in trip.

LTO Selection:

17:35 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

20/1 (9) Atlantic Fleet seems like the horse with the most potential based on the summary. The horse showed promise in a Chepstow bumper and has not been knocked about when switched to hurdling. The summary also suggests that the horse is the type to step up a lot now hurdling.

ANY BISCUITS got off the mark in comfortable fashion at Market Rasen last month and the form of that race has been well franked, with the second and third scoring since. As long as he handles the better ground, Harry Derham's charge should have too much for last-start Taunton runner-up Callisto's King, as well as Getaway Tom, who ran with credit on his handicap debut at Plumpton. Others to note include Dom Bosco, Kingfast and Professor Calculus.

ANY BISCUITS landed a few bets fitted with a tongue tie when making his second handicap start a winning one at Market Rasen last month, and while this is a deeper race, he may well be up to the job. Callisto's King and Blue Anchor are a couple of potential improvers for successful yards.

Any Biscuits has better claims than most after coming good at Market Rasen but DOM BOSCO has hinted at winning potential.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (0.83/1 +9%) Gabriel's Getaway	0.83 0.83/1(+9%)	(5) Gabriel's Getaway 0.83/1, Hasn't looked back since sent handicap chasing, following up his debut win at Taunton (18.2f) with cosy success at Lingfield (16f, good) in February. Likely more to come yet.
2	1 2nd (1) (3.33/1 -21%) Paddy's Poem	3.33 3.33/1(-21%)	(1) Paddy's Poem 3.33/1, Confirmed the promise of his belated return when taking 4-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (19.8f, soft) 31 days ago, responding well. Just 2 lb higher now and must be taken seriously.
3	4 3rd (4) (5/1 +9%) Rakhine State	5 5/1(+9%)	(4) Rakhine State 5/1, Three-time winner over hurdles for Gordon Elliott and gained first success for current yard in handicap at Worcester in summer 2021. Hasn't built on that since, however, and other more persuasive.
4	2 4th (2) (14/1 -56%) Dino Velvet	14 14/1(-56%)	(2) Dino Velvet 14/1, Fairly useful winning chaser at his best but well held on recent return from 7-month absence at Market Rasen. Tumbling down the weights but plenty to prove at present.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (10/1 +38%) Texard	10 10/1(+38%)	(3) Texard 10/1, Fairly useful at best but nowhere near that level in recent starts, losing place quickly 5 out at Plumpton latest. Tried in visor for first time now.

LTO Selection:

18:05 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 0.83/1 (5) Gabriel's Getaway seems to be the likely contender to do well as he hasn't looked back since sent handicap chasing and has already had two successful runs.

GABRIEL'S GETAWAY has had an excellent beginning to his chasing career and going back up in trip should not inconvenience him as he attempts to bring up the hat-trick. Ground conditions are also in his favour and it may be too much of an ask for the veteran Paddy's Poem to beat this progressive type, despite a determined success at Plumpton last month. Rakhine State has yet to put it together over fences, but remains a capable sort.

It's hard to get away from GABRIEL'S GETAWAY, who has made an excellent start to his chasing career and remains with potential. Last month's Plumpton winner Paddy's Poem looks the obvious danger.

So long as conditions don't deteriorate, DINO VELVET (nap) could cash in a career-low mark at the expense of Gabriel's Getaway.

1	12 1st (12) (9/1 +68%) Coachman	9 9/1(+68%)	(12) Coachman 9/1, Bought for £140,000 after an Irish point run but well held in 4 hurdles for new connections. Has had wind surgery ahead of this handicap debut. Could only consider if backed.
2	15 2nd (15) (50/1 +0%) Barbarian	50 50/1(+0%)	(15) Barbarian 50/1, Pulled up in handicaps chases (for Bob Buckler) and a point on last 3 outings. Returns from an absence with lots to prove. Cheekpieces on first time.
3	9 3rd (9) (22/1 -120%) Barrowmount	22 22/1(-120%)	(9) Barrowmount 22/1, Has struggled to make an impact in handicaps this term, although he was running a bit better (held in dispute of fourth) when falling on the run-in at Taunton last time. Needs to build on that now.
4	13 4th (13) (16/1 +68%) Wearapinkribbon	16 16/1(+68%)	(13) Wearapinkribbon 16/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. 50/1, below form well-beaten ninth of 16 to Karakoram in handicap hurdle at Taunton (3m, soft) 39 days ago. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces now.

6th	4 6th (4) (22/1 -83%) Getupearly	22 22/1(-83%)	(4) Getupearly 22/1, Second on 25f Hereford handicap debut in February but has disappointed on both starts since. Hard to know what to expect.
7th	6 7th (6) (6.5/1 +46%) Whenitrainsitpours	6.5 6.5/1(+46%)	(6) Whenitrainsitpours 6.5/1, Third in a point. Modest form over best over hurdles, finishing a well-held third on 21f Wincanton handicap debut 25 days ago. Has a tongue strap added now.

9th	16 9th (16) (11/1 +45%) Justshortofabubble	11 11/1(+45%)	(16) Justshortofabubble 11/1, Remains a maiden after 16 starts. Ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.5f, soft, 12/1) 29 days ago.

11th	18 11th (18) (50/1 +0%) Firefly Lane	50 50/1(+0%)	(18) Firefly Lane 50/1, Has done reasonably well in points this winter but pulled up in course handicap chase back under Rules last month. Remains to be seen whetrher a return to hurdles improves matters.

13th	2 13th (2) (12/1 -33%) Student Chap	12 12/1(-33%)	(2) Student Chap 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Yet to build on hurdle debut fourth at Worcester in December but that could esaily change now handicapping after a break. One to note in the betting.

LTO Selection:

18:35 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based on this summary, as most of the horses have inconsistent form or are facing challenges such as returning from a break, trying new equipment or stepping up in distance. However, 2.5/1 (1) Roger Rarebit and 6.5/1 (3) Puddlesinthepark both have recent wins and placements that suggest they could be in the running, while 16/1 (5) Karakoram has proven stamina and could bounce back from a recent poor run.

ROGER RAREBIT lost little in defeat when finding only the progressive White Rhino too good at Southwell in February and despite being 8lb higher in the handicap, Tom Lacey's gelding looks capable of more in this sphere. Barrowmount was running a much-improved race until hitting the deck at Taunton last month and a similar bid could see him involved. Puddlesinthepark may appreciate this return to quicker ground and is another who merits consideration.

In a race where few arrive with compelling claims ROGER RAREBIT makes obvious appeal at the top of the weights. Puddlesinthepark is another who has at least shown he can win in handicap company and is a possible threat. Fergal O'Brien handicap newcomer Student Chap is also of some interest, particularly if the betting speaks in his favour.

A very open, low-grade handicap. WHENITRAINSITPOURS is well worth a go over this longer trip.

2	1 2nd (1) (3.33/1 +56%) Opening Bid	3.33 3.33/1(+56%)	(1) Opening Bid 3.33/1, Latest win in hurdle at Uttoxeter in December. 6/1, bit below form third of 6 in handicap hurdle at this course (17f, good to soft) 42 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase.
3	6 3rd (6) (5.5/1 -10%) Poet's Reflection	5.5 5.5/1(-10%)	(6) Poet's Reflection 5.5/1, Sound start to chase career after 11 months off when second of 6 in handicap at Taunton (2m, heavy) 22 days ago. Won't be far away if showing up here in similar form.
4	8 4th (8) (9/1 +0%) Estate Italiana	9 9/1(+0%)	(8) Estate Italiana 9/1, Winner in chase at Ludlow in February. Not in the same form when fifth of 10 at Taunton (2m, heavy, 11/2) since.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 -43%) Greatest Star	10 10/1(-43%)	(4) Greatest Star 10/1, Southwell maiden hurdle winner for Dan Skelton last season. Easily best run in handicap hurdles for new yard this term when second at Sandown (2m) last month. Switches to fences now.
6th	9 6th (9) (9/1 +55%) Pencil	9 9/1(+55%)	(9) Pencil 9/1, Poor form. Remote third of 6 in handicap chase at Taunton (2m, heavy) on debut over fences 22 days ago. Needs to leave that behind.
7th	7 7th (7) (16/1 -14%) Mountain Grey	16 16/1(-14%)	(7) Mountain Grey 16/1, Only minor promise in handicap hurdle/chases but is unexposed now handicap chasing.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (8.5/1 -6%) Braveheart	8.5 8.5/1(-6%)	(3) Braveheart 8.5/1, Came good in C&D handicap in October. Not in the same form in a couple of starts at the end of 2022 but return to this venue might spark a revival back from a break (has had wind surgery).
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (20/1 -43%) Vin Rouge	20 20/1(-43%)	(5) Vin Rouge 20/1, Scored readily a couple of times on the Flat last summer before gaining a first success over hurdles in Fontwell handicap in August. Off since a below-par run at Stratford in October. Has had wind surgery ahead of this switch to fences.
10	10 \|PU\| (10) (22/1 -22%) Megalodon	22 22/1(-22%)	(10) Megalodon 22/1, One win from 27 NH runs. Sixteen runs since last win in 2020. 22/1, ninth of 12 in handicap chase at Southwell (2m, good to soft) 46 days ago.

LTO Selection:

19:05 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, the horse that is likely to do well is 8.5/1 (6) Poet's Reflection, who had a sound start to their chase career and was second in a handicap at Taunton recently. They are expected to be competitive if they continue to show similar form in this race.

BEGIN THE LUCK came good at the second of time asking over fences at Newton Abbot recently and he could make light work of a 4lb rise. Poet's Reflection offered something to work with when runner-up on her first attempt at the larger obstacles at Taunton and Linda Blackford's mare is feared most. Chase debutant Greatest Star will need to jump with more fluency in order to succeed in this sphere, but he arrives in fair form and is another to note.

In a race where few arrive with compelling claims a chance is taken on BRAVEHEART, who has had wind surgery since last seen, reviving back at the scene of his win in the autumn. Poet's Reflection will be a threat if reproducing the form he showed at Taunton last time. Recent Newton Abbot scorer Begin The Luck is another to consider.

A chance is taken on chase debutant GREATEST STAR who ran his best race yet for his new yard at Sandown last time.

2	6 2nd (6) (2.5/1 +0%) Quintin's Man	2.5 2.5/1(+0%)	(6) Quintin's Man 2.5/1, Brother to a point winner. Multiple point winner, including last time (Apr 10). Makes most appeal without the benefit of market clues.
3	5 3rd (5) (7/1 -75%) Liberty Rock	7 7/1(-75%)	(5) Liberty Rock 7/1, Multiple point winner, pulled up last time (Apr 10). Likely to bounce back starting out under Rules, so worthy of consideration.
4	9 4th (9) (2.5/1 +0%) Walkin Out	2.5 2.5/1(+0%)	(9) Walkin Out 2.5/1, Modest hurdler/chaser in France. Won 4 of 6 starts in points, including latest (Apr 10). One to consider if strong in the market ahead of hunter debut.
5th	2 5th (2) (8.5/1 +15%) Grove Ash	8.5 8.5/1(+15%)	(2) Grove Ash 8.5/1, Fair hurdler but only poor form over fences. Dual point winner, runner-up last time (8½ lengths ahead of Funky Sensation, Apr 8). Not discounted.
6th	1 6th (1) (20/1 +50%) Funky Sensation	20 20/1(+50%)	(1) Funky Sensation 20/1, Rules form is uninspiring and, while he has won between the flags, he didn't fire on his latest outing in that sphere. Others preferred.
7th	7 7th (7) (6.5/1 -8%) Reflex Action	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(7) Reflex Action 6.5/1, Down the field in a bumper over 4 years ago. Multiple point winner, including last time (Apr 8). Obvious player back under Rules.
8th	3 8th (3) (66/1 -65%) Jimmy Tew	66 66/1(-65%)	(3) Jimmy Tew 66/1, Pulled up all 3 starts in hunters and unplaced in a point last time. Makes no appeal.
9th	8 9th (8) (16/1 -33%) Honest Opinion	16 16/1(-33%)	(8) Honest Opinion 16/1, Black Sam Bellamy mare. Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Monbeg Legend. Dual point winner, runner-up last time (Apr 10). Interesting Rules newcomer.

LTO Selection:

19:35 Exeter Hunter Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well. However, some horses that stand out as potential contenders are: 2.5/1 (6) Quintin's Man, 2.5/1 (9) Walkin Out, 5/1 (7) Reflex Action, 8/1 (5) Liberty Rock, and 33/1 (8) Honest Opinion. The others may not have as strong a chance based on their recent form or lack of market clues. Ultimately, it will depend on factors such as the race conditions, the jockey's performance, and how the horses handle the course on the day of the race.

Dean Summersby and Darren Edwards teamed up to win this last year and are fancied to do so once again with LIBERTY ROCK. A three-time winner in the point-to-point sphere, the seven-year-old should have no issues with the forecast ground conditions and looks to hold every chance for his local trainer. Stablemate Honest Opinion merits the utmost respect, as does Quintin's Man, who arrives in good heart having landed back-to-back successes between the flags recently.

QUINTIN'S MAN has enjoyed plenty of success in points and could be the way to go in a potentially competitive event. Liberty Rock and Reflex Action, also multiple winners between the flags, should be on the premises.

A bit more versatility as regards ground gains WALKIN OUT slight preference over fellow last-time Trebudannon scorer Quintin's Man.

1	1 1st (1) (1.88/1 +16%) Supremely West	1.88 1.88/1(+16%)	(1) Supremely West 1.88/1, Unplaced in points but made a winning Rules debut at Tramore and followed up 3 months later on first outing for this stable at Huntingdon. Should go well again.
2	10 2nd (10) (6/1 +14%) Tinklers Hill	6 6/1(+14%)	(10) Tinklers Hill 6/1, Expensive purchase but will need to step up markedly on his debut if he's to feature in this.
3	2 3rd (2) (10/1 +17%) Emailandy	10 10/1(+17%)	(2) Emailandy 10/1, Well related and, while he didn't offer much encouragement at Kempton on debut, he might prove a different proposition after a break.

Half-sister to bumper winner/very smart hurdler Clondaw Warrior and bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Whizzzey Rascal, stays 3m. Dam unraced. Successful sole start in Irish points (Feb 12). Interesting Rules newcomer.
7th	14 7th (14) (16/1 +20%) Spice Boy	16 16/1(+20%)	(14) Spice Boy 16/1, Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Brother to bumper winner/fair hurdler Spice Girl, and half-brother to modest chaser Richie Valentine.
8th	6 8th (6) (80/1 -142%) Myfanwy's Magic	80 80/1(-142%)	(6) Myfanwy's Magic 80/1, Bred to want further and never figured at Hereford on debut. Others are more persuasive.
9th	13 9th (13) (66/1 -100%) Elpologreg	66 66/1(-100%)	(13) Elpologreg 66/1, Related to 4 winners and hinted at ability at Kempton on debut. Failed to back that up at the same course subsequently, though.
10th	3 10th (3) (28/1 -75%) Hobie	28 28/1(-75%)	(3) Hobie 28/1, Coastal Path gelding. Brother to a point winner. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Grand Soir. Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Feb 26).

13th	5 13th (5) (300/1 -200%) Johnthepostman	300 300/1(-200%)	(5) Johnthepostman 300/1, Out of winning hurdler but didn't show a great deal at Doncaster first time out. Hard to fancy.

LTO Selection:

20:05 Exeter NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to make a definitive prediction, as there is not a clear standout among the horses mentioned in the summary. However, 2.5/1 (1) Supremely West and 3/1 (4) I'm Ravenous seem to have the most promising track records and pedigrees, and may be the most likely to perform well in their upcoming races. 40/1 (11) Madame Pompadour also has impressive breeding, but has not shown much in her previous starts.

SUPREMELY WEST supplemented his Tramore success when winning under a penalty on his UK debut at Huntingdon. The second, who won subsequently before running with credit in a Grade 2 at Aintree, would suggest Richard Newland's charge is capable of bringing up his hat-trick. Luke Scott claims a handy 7lb this time around and that ought to further aid his chances. I'm Ravenous won between the flags in December and heads the list of dangers from Tinklers Hill.

SUPREMELY WEST bids to defy a double-penalty and sets a good standard for the others to aim at. I'm Ravenous is another one to note, while Emailandy isn't dismissed after a break.

Several pointing recruits look the part on paper, with I'M RAVENOUS just preferred to The Midwife.

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.
