1	5 1st (5) (6/4 +20%) Billytherealbigred		1.5 6/4(+20%)																															(5) Billytherealbigred 6/4, Most progressive sent handicapping over hurdles last season, winning his first 3 starts, and in receipt of weight-for-age allowance he was impressive when making a successful seasonal/chase debut at Bangor (20.3f, heavy) in October. 12 lb rise to contend with but capable of following up. The form of his Bangor win has worked out well so a 12lb rise could be manageable.
2	1 2nd (1) (13/2 +28%) Fire Flyer		6.5 13/2(+28%)																															(1) Fire Flyer 13/2, Won a pair of novice hurdles at up to 19f in February. Disappointed in a couple of Sandown handicap hurdles in the spring and failed to complete on return after a wind op through no fault of his own at Cheltenham (21f) last month (badly hampered 3 out). Now attentions are turned to fences. Chase debutant; too talented to dismiss for all that he has a lot to prove now.
3	7 3rd (7) (12/1 +14%) Risk De Pluie		12 12/1(+14%)																															(7) Risk De Pluie 12/1, Winning Irish pointer who followed suit in 2m3f novice at Fontwell on Rules debut in January. Yet to build on that but could do now sent chasing after 7 months off (has had a breathing operation in the interim). Point/hurdle winner; ran to a fair level in novice hurdles and he's had wind surgery.
4	4 4th (4) (18/1 -125%) Denemethy		18 18/1(-125%)																															(4) Denemethy 18/1, Irish point winner who was runner-up on bumper debut last November. Much better for hurdles bow when landing maiden at Wincanton in March but failed to fire under a penalty at Ffos Las the following month. Makes return/chase debut and impossible to discount for a top yard. Maiden hurdle winner and has the potential to be a far better chaser.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/2 +0%) Royal Jewel		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(6) Royal Jewel 9/2, Progressive over hurdles at this course last season, including a maiden win around 2m and a near miss in a handicap over 18.5f. Resumed where he left off when good second at Newton Abbot on chase bow/return in October and likely to improve on that. Should be sharper all round for his first chase start but this is a stronger race.
6th	2 6th (2) (4/1 -14%) Dartmoor Pirate		4 4/1(-14%)																															(2) Dartmoor Pirate 4/1, Winning hurdle debut at Wincanton last season and better form in defeat since, notably his excellent fourth of 17 in very competitive EBF Final at Sandown in March, looking well suited by the step up to 2½m. Will make a chaser so warrants respect on return. Had a solid novice hurdle campaign last season, finishing fourth in the EBF Final.
3	3 |PU| (3) (11/1 +31%) Ito Ditto		11 11/1(+31%)																															(3) Ito Ditto 11/1, Much improved last term and a three-time scorer, signing off with a 2m4f Lingfield handicap success. Should make a chaser, but dropped away quickly on his first try at it on return at Ffos Las (16f, soft) in October. This should reveal more. Went out like a light on chase debut at Ffos Las (2m) but he's a lot better than that.

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

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

BILLYTHEREALBIGRED was hugely progressive in handicap hurdles, winning three on the bounce, before ending his season with a fall at Ayr. The four-year-old showed no ill effects when making a successful chasing debut at Bangor in October and a 12lb higher rating may not be enough to stop him from improving further. Dartmoor Pirate ran well to finish fourth in the EBF Final at Sandown and is likely to be in the mix on his chasing bow, while Fire Flyer has the ability to get involved in proceedings too.

BILLYTHEREALBIGRED couldn't have been much more impressive on his return/chase debut at Bangor in October and, with further improvement anticipated, he's fancied to defy a 12 lb rise and remain unbeaten in this sphere. Second choice is Royal Jewel, who resumed where he left off last winter when finishing runner-up on chase debut at Newton Abbot recently, with Dartmoor Pirate rounding off the shortlist.

Preference is for DARTMOOR PIRATE who was fourth in last season's always-strong EBF Hurdle Final at Sandown.

1	5 1st (5) (9/2 +0%) Baby Sage		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(5) Baby Sage 9/2, Bumper winner who has been placed on all 3 completed starts over hurdles, returning from 11 months off to finish third on 21f Warwick handicap debut 31 days ago. Entitled to come on for the outing. Same mark as when beaten 12l at Warwick, though lacked a recent run that day.
2	7 2nd (7) (7/2 +13%) Land Genie		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(7) Land Genie 7/2, Half-brother to Constitution Hill. Failed to really build on his bumper debut success during his time with the O'Neill stable but no shock were he to prove a different proposition for new trainer Dan Skelton. Has had wind surgery. Market support would look significant. Respectable form for previous yard; now with Dan Skelton and had wind surgery.
3	3 3rd (3) (20/1 -186%) Night Duty		20 20/1(-186%)																															(3) Night Duty 20/1, £65,000 buy after winning his sole point in May 2021 but seen only 3 times over hurdles in the 3½ years since, albeit showing ability remains this autumn. Handicap debut. Two runs since returning leave him with a good bit to prove here on handicap debut.
4	2 4th (2) (10/3 +49%) Iris Des Issards		3.333333 10/3(+49%)																															(2) Iris Des Issards 10/3, Ex-pointer who is still unexposed as a hurdler and shaped well when 3 lengths third of 10 on his 17f course reappearance 4 weeks ago. The return to a longer trip will suit and high on the shortlist. Seems mildly progressive having hit the frame in his last two handicaps.
5th	10 5th (10) (50/1 -150%) Demilion		50 50/1(-150%)																															(10) Demilion 50/1, 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, including well-held fifth on 15f Wincanton handicap debut 15 days ago. This significant step up in trip will need to spark improvement. At 40-1, the market told a tale on handicap debut and he was tailed off.
6th	8 6th (8) (5/1 +29%) Captain Boudet		5 5/1(+29%)																															(8) Captain Boudet 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who made a positive return to the fray when third of 18 in 19.5f Chepstow handicap last month. Claims if able to build on that. Had top weight when third of 18 in a 2m3f handicap at Chepstow last month.
7th	6 7th (6) (18/1 -64%) Flash Gorcombe		18 18/1(-64%)																															(6) Flash Gorcombe 18/1, Notched 3 chase wins last season. Betting perhaps the best guide to expectations back hurdling on reappearance. First run in a handicap over hurdles and chasing exploits bring him right into this.
8th	9 8th (9) (66/1 -100%) Confidential Gosip		66 66/1(-100%)																															(9) Confidential Gosip 66/1, Fair maiden hurdler for Jessica Harrington but well held in 2 runs for Laura Horsfall, making jumping errors on Fontwell handicap debut latterly. Can only watch after that. Tailed off in two runs for current yard, the latest a handicap; cheekpieces turned to.
9th	11 9th (11) (80/1 -21%) Instant De Bonheur		80 80/1(-21%)																															(11) Instant De Bonheur 80/1, Modest maiden who was struggling for form when last seen at the beginning of 2023. Can only be watched after nearly 2 years on the sidelines. Tailed off when returned to hurdling for her last two runs and those were a long time ago.
4	4 |PU| (4) (3/1 +50%) Jaminska		3 3/1(+50%)																															(4) Jaminska 3/1, Fair winning hurdler who stepped up on her reappearance when runner-up over 18.5f here last month. The step back up in trip should be in her favour and respected under Pritchard. Well handicapped, ran well last time and Callum Pritchard takes off a very handy 7lb.
1	1 |PU| (1) (125/1 -279%) Balkeo		125 125/1(-279%)																															(1) Balkeo 125/1, Fairly useful form in France in spring 2022 but not seen since pulling up in a Kempton novice hurdle for Nicky Henderson in March 2022. Has first-time cheekpieces added to a tongue tie he wore when last seen. Can only watch after such a long time off. Promise in France but left Nicky Henderson for £12,000; off for 993 days.

14:45 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 22f Race Class Flow

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

Iris Des Issards is likely to appreciate a step up in trip based on his return third here last month. Kayley Woollacott's gelding should have more to offer on just his seventh appearance over hurdles, but a chance is taken on handicap debutant NIGHT DUTY. The eight-year-old has required plenty of patience since winning a point-to-point in May 2021, only running three times since, but this might be the time to catch him. Jaminska and Baby Sage complete the shortlist.

The suggestion is LAND GENIE on his first outing for Dan Skelton, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Iris des Issards and Jaminska both arrive on the back of encouraging placed efforts here last month and can give the selection most to think about.

If she stays the trip then JAMINSKA is handicapped to be very competitive with Callum Pritchard taking away a further 7lb.

1	7 1st (7) (9/2 +55%) Leissieres Express		4.5 9/2(+55%)																															(7) Leissieres Express 9/2, Course winner who ended last season on the up, scoring at Chepstow on final start. Looked rusty on his return there and can take a step forward. Progressive last season; glaring concern is his laboured reappearance.
2	2 2nd (2) (12/1 -243%) Art Decco		12 12/1(-243%)																															(2) Art Decco 12/1, Ended last term on the up, completing a hat-trick in staying handicaps when scoring at Ffos Las (28f, heavy) in March. Stayer with more to come this season so shouldn't be underestimated. Went 3-3 last season once the cheekpieces were fitted and could improve some more.
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 -9%) Rouge De L'quest		3 3/1(-9%)																															(5) Rouge De L'quest 3/1, Winning pointer who boasts a progressive profile over fences since blinkers/tongue tie went on, easily opening his account at Ffos Las (23.8f) in March. Good runners-up efforts next 3 starts, including at Chepstow on return, clear of a subsequent winner. Should stay and big shout. Low-mileage 8yo who is running well and gives the impression that he'll stay this far.
4	8 4th (8) (12/1 -85%) Musical Slave		12 12/1(-85%)																															(8) Musical Slave 12/1, Useful sort at his best and took advantage of reduced mark at Fontwell. Only fourth there next time, however, and likely to find a few too good again. Recent winner but not the force of old and good days have become hard to call.
5th	9 5th (9) (11/2 +8%) Whydah Gally		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(9) Whydah Gally 11/2, Hit the target twice in handicaps chases at Lingfield last season, latterly demonstrating strong stamina reserves with success over 29f in February. Unable to reproduce that since but shaped as if in reasonable heart on his second start back when third at Fontwell 3 weeks ago. Plugged on for third at Fontwell (3m3f) and this longer trip can only be a good thing.
6	6 |PU| (6) (7/1 +18%) Well Dick		7 7/1(+18%)																															(6) Well Dick 7/1, Scored at Warwick in March but pulled up in handicap chase at Ffos Las (28f, heavy) 8 months ago on his final run for Charlie Longsdon. Still merits consideration for his new in-form handler after breathing surgery. Hard to call but a capable stayer on his day and makes stable debut after a wind operation.
11	11 |PU| (11) (10/1 +85%) Daring Plan		10 10/1(+85%)																															(11) Daring Plan 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who was well held sent chasing after 10 months off at Chepstow 2 weeks ago so easy to look elsewhere. Not had a lot of racing under rules but his recent chase debut was forgettable.
3	3 |PU| (3) (12/1 -20%) Bells Of Peterboro		12 12/1(-20%)																															(3) Bells Of Peterboro 12/1, Dual winner at Chepstow last season but disappointed there 5 weeks ago after his comeback run over hurdles. Others more persuasive. Below best in two runs after a break and going over this far could be an issue.
10	10 |PU| (10) (13/2 +59%) Stellar Stream		6.5 13/2(+59%)																															(10) Stellar Stream 13/2, Gained a deserved breakthrough success over fences (in first-time cheekpieces, not on here) in the North Wales National at Bangor (29.5f, heavy) in February. Failed to complete next 2 starts and looked rusty after 6 months off at Ffos Las. Better expected now. 3m5f winner on heavy so a strong stayer; reappearance run could have been better.
4	4 |PU| (4) (14/1 +0%) Hold Your Fort		14 14/1(+0%)																															(4) Hold Your Fort 14/1, Really turned a corner since upped in trip over fences, posting his best effort yet when completing a Newton Abbot (25.8f, good) 4-timer in September. Handicapper semes to have his measure now, however. Had a good year but the handicapper now looks in charge and conditions are a concern.
1	1 |PU| (1) (66/1 -230%) Amateur		66 66/1(-230%)																															(1) Amateur 66/1, Unreliable type who is firmly into the veteran stage of his career and was pulled up both starts in October after 5 months off. Hard to fancy in this competitive environment on the back of that. Pulled up in five of his last six races and good days tend to come at Ffos Las; opposable.

15:20 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 3) 31f Race Class Flow

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

WHYDAH GALLY won over 3m5f on soft going at Lingfield back in February. A recent third off this mark in the Southern National offered plenty of encouragement and Joe Tizzard's resolute stayer is taken to confirm running with Musical Slave, who wasn't far behind the selection in fourth at Fontwell and can have a say in the outcome. Art Decco proved a progressive chaser last season and is preferred to Rouge De L'quest on his reappearance.

ROUGE DE L'QUEST was unlucky to bump into one at Chepstow on return, pulling clear of a subsequent winner, and is fancied to one better with a promising claimer taking off 7 b. Art Decco is an improving stayer who must be respected on his comeback, while the unexposed Well Dick is of interest having joined an in-form yard.

Rouge De L'Quest is solid but WELL DICK gets a speculative nod on the back of wind surgery and on his debut for Emma Lavelle.

1	1 1st (1) (4/9 +100%) Sober Glory		0.444444 4/9(+100%)																															(1) Sober Glory 4/9, £110,000 4-y-o, dam, unraced, closely related to very smart hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) Fingal Bay. Won sole start in Irish points in May and representing an in-form yard, he looked a good prospect when edging a tight battle at Chepstow in October, pair clear. Major claims under a penalty. At Chepstow (soft) he beat a Skelton newcomer with the pair well clear; looks useful.
2	11 2nd (11) (80/1 +20%) Ourbrowneyedgirl		80 80/1(+20%)																															(11) Ourbrowneyedgirl 80/1, First foal, dam (c122/h116), 2m-2¼m hurdle/chase winner, half-sister to winning hurdler/chaser up to 2½m Sorcier du Roi out of useful hurdle/chase winner up to 2½m Knock Down.

3	4 3rd (4) (50/1 -79%) Jaja Jimmy		50 50/1(-79%)																															(4) Jaja Jimmy 50/1, Linda's Lad gelding. Dam (c94/h110), 2m-2½m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful chaser (winner around 3m) Graduation Night. Hooded for debut and showed something to work on when mid-field at Worcester in June. Tongue tie now on instead. Now tongue tied, having sported a hood when midfield at Worcester in June; opposable.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 -25%) Southfield Finale		10 10/1(-25%)																															(8) Southfield Finale 10/1, Telescope gelding. Half-brother to 5 winners, including smart hurdler/chasers Southfield Theatre and Southfield Vic. Dam (c134/h134) 17f-25f hurdle/chase winner. Trainer’s newcomers command respect (also responsible for Crackerjacque). Newcomer from a prolific jumps family and one that gets bumper winners.
5th	3 5th (3) (4/1 +33%) Crackerjacque		4 4/1(+33%)																															(3) Crackerjacque 4/1, Second foal, dam unraced half-sister to useful 21f hurdle winner/very smart staying chaser Sam Brown (by Black Sam Bellamy) out of 2m hurdles/chase winner (stayed 2¾m) Cream Cracker. One of 2 newcomers for yard with a good record in bumpers. Second foal out of unraced half-sister to the stable's smart staying chaser Sam Brown.
6th	7 6th (7) (100/1 -203%) Pougie		100 100/1(-203%)																															(7) Pougie 100/1, Dartmouth gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler Bardenstown Lad and fairly useful hurdler/chaser Southern Sam. Bred to have a future but sent off long odds and showed nothing pitched in quite deep at Cheltenham in October. Bred to stay much further and he finished last at Cheltenham in late October (good; 100-1).
7th	5 7th (5) (25/1 +0%) Mask Of Zorro		25 25/1(+0%)																															(5) Mask Of Zorro 25/1, Limited impact in a brace of bumpers 6 months apart. Best run was his debut effort and even that was no more than mild promise.
8th	6 8th (6) (9/1 -200%) Master Theobaker		9 9/1(-200%)																															(6) Master Theobaker 9/1, Fourth foal, dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 2¾m) Master Tommytucker out of fairly useful hurdler/chaser (winner around 2m) No Need For Alarm. Newcomer for excellent yard so has to be taken seriously. Tongue tie on. Out of unraced half-sister to high-class 2m2f-2m5f hurdle/chase winner Master Tommytucker.
9th	12 9th (12) (150/1 -650%) What U Wanna Do Is		150 150/1(-650%)																															(12) What U Wanna Do Is 150/1, Flemensfirth filly. Half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful 17f hurdle winner No Time To Wait. Dam (c135/h139) 2m/17f hurdle/chase winner. Failed to meet expectations on debut for James Owen 3 weeks ago and since changed yards. Changed hands for 1,000gns soon after beating only one home at Hereford last month.
10th	2 10th (2) (50/1 +24%) Badentaggart		50 50/1(+24%)																															(2) Badentaggart 50/1, Little impact in Chepstow bumpers 7 months apart. Cheekpieces on. Beaten 23l (soft) and 42l (good/soft) on visits to Chepstow and now goes in cheekpieces.

15:55 Exeter NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

A winner between the flags in Ireland, SOBER GLORY made a successful start under Rules when landing a bumper at Chepstow with plenty left in the tank. That is easily the strongest form on offer and the four-year-old could prove difficult to beat, despite carrying a penalty. The newcomer Crackerjacque is from the family of high-class chaser Sam Brown and could get involved, while Paul Nicholls' Master Theobaker is worth noting on his racecourse debut.

SOBER GLORY ran to a high figure when making a winning debut at Chepstow in October, pulling well clear with another useful prospect, so hopes have to be high that he will successfully concede weight all round. Newcomers may offer most resistance, with Master Theobaker and Crackerjacque likely types on paper.

There are interesting newcomers to beat but SOBER GLORY pulled clear with the second at Chepstow and he could be useful.

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.
