1	11 1st (11) (12/1 +70%) Sadie Hill		12 12/1(+70%)																															(11) Sadie Hill 12/1, Improved when second on yard/handicap debut at Fontwell (19f, good) in October but has disappointingly failed to build on it since. Maiden (0-9); pretty modest since returning from wind surgery; competes from easing mark..
2	7 2nd (7) (7/1 -56%) Kalpaga		7 7/1(-56%)																															(7) Kalpaga 7/1, French import who was backed at big prices when cashing in on a reduced mark at Hereford (19.7f) 19 days ago. Did the job easily and though up 11 lb, she demands consideration. Made all to score (from a plummeting mark) at Hereford 19 days ago; sits 11lb higher here..
3	10 3rd (10) (10/1 +60%) Getbazoutofhere		10 10/1(+60%)																															(10) Getbazoutofhere 10/1, Hasn't returned in top form, but fourth-place finish at Stratford in first-time cheekpieces was more like and she's down to a tempting mark, Better in tongue-tie/cheekpieces combination at Stratford (2m6f); others make more appeal..
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 +33%) Houi Cherie		4 4/1(+33%)																															(3) Houi Cherie 4/1, Showed fair form in bumpers last term and opened her account at the third attempt over timber in emphatic fashion here (20f, heavy) last month, jumping well. Switched to handicaps and never really looked comfortable at Carlisle. Now goes up in trip. All-the-way C&D maiden winner (6-4 fav) penultimate; much less effective at Carlisle since.
5th	9 5th (9) (2.5/1 +44%) Nikhi		2.5 2.5/1(+44%)																															(9) Nikhi 2.5/1, Fairly useful 2m Flat winner for Jedd O'Keeffe. Changed hands for 78,000 gns and shaped promisingly when third on hurdles debut here over 2m. Failed to jump with fluency both starts since but better expected now handicapping up in trip. Dual Flat winner (1m/2m); some promise over hurdles; tackling new trip for handicap debut..
6th	2 6th (2) (4/1 -14%) Phillapa Sue		4 4/1(-14%)																															(2) Phillapa Sue 4/1, Placed both starts in novice hurdles last season and made a successful handicap debut on return at Hereford in November. Solid if unspectacular efforts sicne though this is easier than the Newbury race she contested latest. Reliable, despite being set some tough tasks, since winning at Hereford (2m3f) in November.
1	1 |PU| (1) (6.5/1 +7%) Jane Du Berlais		6.5 6.5/1(+7%)																															(1) Jane Du Berlais 6.5/1, Looked a bright prospect when winning on first completed start over hurdles at Lingfield (2m) in December. Found out under a penalty at Wetherby and brushed aside on handicap debut at Kelso a month ago. Still early days and he's now up significantly in trip. Solid enough Lingfield winner (2m mares' novice); jumped poorly at Kelso latest; capable.
6	6 |PU| (6) (28/1 -133%) Cotton End		28 28/1(-133%)																															(6) Cotton End 28/1, Lacked scope for chasing and pretty disappointing over those obstacles this season. On the plus side, her mark has come down a lot switched to hurdling and cheekpieces now go on. Stamina to prove but she's an interesting contender. Close third at Hereford (2m3f) last October; no joy over fences since; cheekpieces go on..

14:15 Ffos Las Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 22f Race Class Flow

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

4.5/1 (7) KALPAGA seems to have the best recent form, having won easily at Hereford just 19 days ago. Although she is now up 11 lbs in weight, she still demands consideration. 5.5/1 (4) FAY CE QUE VOUDRAS won from a lower mark in January but subsequent efforts suggest she may be in the grip of the assessor. 6/1 (3) HOUI CHERIE also showed promise last month but struggled in her last race at Carlisle. 25/1 (10) GETBAZOUTOFHERE is down to a tempting mark but hasn't returned to top form yet. 12/1 (6) COTTON END is an interesting contender with her mark having come down a lot since switching to hurdling, but she still has stamina to prove. 3.5/1 (2) PHILLAPA SUE has been solid but unspectacular, and 4.5/1 (9) NIKHI is tackling a new trip for her handicap debut. 7/1 (1) JANE DU BERLAIS is early on in her career and is now up significantly in trip. Based on this information, 4.5/1 (7) KALPAGA is the most likely to do well in the next race.

KALPAGA bolted up at Hereford last time over 2m3f and she was put up 11lb for that effort, which might not be enough to prevent the mare from going in once more. With conditions in her favour and the step up in trip a possible source of improvement, she could prove tough to beat. Fay Ce Que Voudras has to be respected, as she takes a drop in class and was dropped 2lb for a respectable effort at Chepstow last time. Phillapa Sue is another to consider.

It might be worth taking a punt on COTTON END, who arrives in no sort of form over fences but the assessor has given her a major chance returned to the smaller obstacles and the fitting of cheekpieces can be viewed as a sign of intent. Kalpaga will doubtless be popular given the ease in which she won at Hereford, with Nikhi a potential improver over this trip.

Kalpaga may have more to offer, but the tentative suggestion is Fergal O'Brien's PHILLAPA SUE who boasts a consistent profile.

1	2 1st (2) (4/1 +60%) Garincha		4 4/1(+60%)																															(2) Garincha 4/1, Dual chase winner this season. Had a possible excuse (badly hampered eleventh) when a remote fourth at Taunton last time and treated as if still in form. Won at Fontwell in March and badly hampered at Taunton since; he's one for the shortlist..
2	3 2nd (3) (1/1 +64%) Eaton Collina		1 1/1(+64%)																															(3) Eaton Collina 1/1, It's all clicked for him over fences this spring, opening his account at Chepstow in late February and following up over 21f at Ascot 23 days ago. A further 6 lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making a bold bid for the hat-trick. On hat-trick after wins at Chepstow and Ascot; up 6lb but he's still not taken lightly.
3	1 3rd (1) (5.5/1 +0%) Viva Lavilla		5.5 5.5/1(+0%)																															(1) Viva Lavilla 5.5/1, Point/hurdles winner who posted his best effort over fences when third of 5 in handicap chase at Wetherby (19.5f, soft) In January. Cheekpieces on first time. Thereabouts if reacting positively to the headgear. Good third in 2m4f Wetherby handicap in January; cheekpieces on now; not ruled out.
4	8 4th (8) (10/1 +9%) King Turgeon		10 10/1(+9%)																															(8) King Turgeon 10/1, Placed both starts over fences in France. Back on track following a wind op when scoring at Fontwell (21.5f, soft) last month but he disappointed when a remote fifth at Exeter since. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces now. Won for current yard at Fontwell but remote Exeter 6th since; blinkers replace cheekpieces.
7	7 |PU| (7) (6/1 +57%) Marco Island		6 6/1(+57%)																															(7) Marco Island 6/1, Bumper winner who opened his hurdles account at the second attempt at Chepstow (19.5f) last February. Looked an interesting one for handicaps after that but has disappointing switched to fences this season. Still early days but something to prove for now. Scored over hurdles at Chepstow last February but yet to fire in two runs in this sphere.

14:50 Ffos Las Handicap Chase (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow

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

It's difficult to make a definitive prediction based on this summary alone, but two horses stand out as potentially strong contenders: 2.75/1 (3) EATON COLLINA and 3/1 (5) JAZZ KING. Both have recent wins and appear to be in good form over fences. 5.5/1 (4) WEWILLGOWITHPLANB and 10/1 (2) GARINCHA also seem to have potential, but may need to prove themselves further in this sphere. The others have either yet to show their ability over fences or have had recent struggles, making them less likely to be top contenders in their next race.

Viva Lavilla returns from a short break for the in-form Dan Skelton yard and the seven-year-old tries first-time cheekpieces, which could spark some improvement. However, he may have to play second best to JAZZ KING, who hacked up over this trip at Ludlow on his latest outing and was only put up 7lb for that effort. The son of Kapgarde is likely to have loads more to come on only his second chase start and can strike once again. Wewillgowithplanb returns back to this sphere and that could prove a positive move.

An interesting novice handicap. JAZZ KING is open to improvement on the back of his comfortable Ludlow chase debut success and can make light of a 7 lb rise. Wewillgowithplanb is another who likely has more to offer in this sphere and may provide the chief threat ahead of the hat-trick seeking Eaton Collina.

Richard Bandey's 6yo WEWILLGOWITHPLANB looks the way to go here with this longer trip very much in his favour now he goes back chasing.

1	6 1st (6) (3/1 +14%) Prince Des Fichaux		3 3/1(+14%)																															(6) Prince Des Fichaux 3/1, Fair maiden over hurdles and ran to similar level when 2¾ lengths third of 6 to Robyndzone in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, good to soft) on debut over fences 19 days ago. Claims if building on that in first-time cheekpieces. Made good start to chasing career when third at Hereford this month; cheekpieces may help.
2	9 2nd (9) (7/1 -133%) Robyndzone		7 7/1(-133%)																															(9) Robyndzone 7/1, Returned to form when taking 6-runner handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f, good to soft) 19 days ago, driven out. 4 lb rise fair and another bid is on the cards. Came good for stable when making virtually all at Hereford this month; 4lb rise manageable.
3	8 3rd (8) (6/1 +33%) Pilot Show		6 6/1(+33%)																															(8) Pilot Show 6/1, Point winner who improved on hurdles form to make a successful debut over fences at Catterick (25.3f) in December and ran creditably when fourth at this course (23.8f) the following month. Not been in same form since, however. Finished well to make winning chase debut in December but not in same form again since.
4	3 4th (3) (5.5/1 +39%) Last Quarter		5.5 5.5/1(+39%)																															(3) Last Quarter 5.5/1, Hurdles winner who left his chase bow well behind when just failing at this course (23.8f) last month. Below par at Uttoxeter since but could well bounce back here. Went very close here two starts ago but has become unreliable.
5th	2 5th (2) (16/1 +36%) Alkopop		16 16/1(+36%)																															(2) Alkopop 16/1, Run creditably in defeat over hurdles this term but failed to complete both starts in this sphere and makes limited appeal. Won off this mark last season but has poor completion record over fences; pulled up latest.
6th	7 6th (7) (22/1 +12%) Sandy Boy		22 22/1(+12%)																															(7) Sandy Boy 22/1, Successful off 8 lb higher at Uttoxeter in November 2021 but nowhere near that level since returning from 15-month absence, beaten a long way when fourth at Exeter latest. Quirky customer who hasn't really fired since returning from a long absence this year.
7th	10 7th (10) (4.5/1 +44%) Copper Cove		4.5 4.5/1(+44%)																															(10) Copper Cove 4.5/1, Fairly useful winner in bumpers but just modest form in 4 starts over hurdles and remains to be seen if switch to chasing brings about improvement. Just a respectable sixth on handicap hurdle debut but still has low mileage; interesting.
8th	5 8th (5) (5/1 +29%) Premier D'troice		5 5/1(+29%)																															(5) Premier D'troice 5/1, Capitalised on a much-reduced mark when landing a Uttoxeter handicap chase (26f) last June. Largely below that level since but offered more the last twice (latest over hurdles) and could be a player. Sound effort when placed in latest chase and now 5lb below last winning mark.
11	11 |F| (11) (28/1 -133%) Easkey Lad		28 28/1(-133%)																															(11) Easkey Lad 28/1, Off the mark over fences at Uttoxeter (24f) in October and backed that up with good third in Worcester handicap (23f). Given a break since disappointing over hurdles subsequently and can't be ruled out. Made good start to chasing career in autumn; off since poor hurdle run six months ago.
1	1 |PU| (1) (33/1 -313%) Ebony Gale		33 33/1(-313%)																															(1) Ebony Gale 33/1, Won 4 handicaps (at up to 24.3f) for Philip Hobbs in 2021 and ran creditably when last seen at Kempton 13 months ago. Now with Peter Bowen and returns on a workable mark. Cheekpieces back on. Worth a second look in the market. Four-time chase winner in 2021 but today's stable debut comes after a 402-day absence.

15:25 Ffos Las Handicap Chase (Class 4) 25f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based solely on this summary, as each horse has their own strengths and weaknesses and there is no clear standout. However, some horses that may be worth considering include 3/1 (9) ROBYNDZONE, 3.5/1 (6) PRINCE DES FICHAUX, 8/1 (1) EBONY GALE, 9/1 (3) LAST QUARTER, and 12/1 (11) EASKEY LAD. These horses have either shown recent good form or have potential based on their past performances. Ultimately, it may be wise to wait and see how the market reacts to each horse before making a betting decision.

Robyndzone won for the first time in almost three years when beating a subsequent winner at Hereford earlier in the month, but he may be worth taking on now effectively 10lb higher in the handicap with Charlie Deutsch back in the saddle. PRINCE DES FICHAUX was just under three lengths behind on that occasion and holds strong claims in reversing the form now only 1lb higher in the ratings. Premier D'troice arrives in good heart and is another to note.

ROBYNDZONE has a good strike rate over fences and arrives on back of a recent victory at Hereford. Still fairly treated, he can score again. Prince des Fichaux and Premier d'Troice rate the principal dangers.

Prince Des Fichaux still has potential but it might be worth chancing unexposed 6yo COPPER COVE, who makes his chasing debut today.

1	2 1st (2) (4.5/1 -13%) Bumpy Johnson		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(2) Bumpy Johnson 4.5/1, Fontwell bumper winner who opened his hurdles account following a second breathing op over C&D in February. Decent efforts in defeat at Doncaster and Exeter since, particularly at the latter course where he was just touched off, but more needed if he's to defy this career-high mark. Won over C&D in February and went very close at Exeter recently; solid claims.
2	6 2nd (6) (3/1 +67%) Stans The Man		3 3/1(+67%)																															(6) Stans The Man 3/1, Bumper winner on yard debut in October and got on top close home when opening hurdles account at Fontwell (19f, soft) in January. Well beaten on handicap bow at Sandown since but that was a much hotter race than this and returning to a left-handed track will probably be in his favour here. Well beaten on handicap debut but heavy ground may have been too much; retains potential.
3	9 3rd (9) (4/1 +0%) Big Ambitions		4 4/1(+0%)																															(9) Big Ambitions 4/1, Brother to smart hurdler/chaser Death Duty. Encouraging start over hurdles when second in 17-runner Wetherby novice (2m, soft) last month and while he was beaten a fair way when third upped to 19.5f at Lingfield next time, improvement may well be forthcoming now pitched into a handicap. Very lightly raced 5yo who is open to improvement on handicap debut.
4	8 4th (8) (8.5/1 -31%) Republican		8.5 8.5/1(-31%)																															(8) Republican 8.5/1, Snapped a long losing run when edging home in front in a 4-runner Hereford handicap (19.7f, good) in February. Wasn't in the same form on soft ground at Southwell next time but would have an each-way chance granted quicker conditions here. Won at Hereford in February but it was a weak race; soundly beaten 4th at Southwell since.
5th	3 5th (3) (16/1 -14%) Mr Muldoon		16 16/1(-14%)																															(3) Mr Muldoon 16/1, Left tame reappearance well behind when landing a 19.5f handicap hurdle at Chepstow in January. However, his profile during the last couple of years has become increasingly patchy and he was never in the hunt back in this sphere at Haydock last time. Started the year in good form but he's failed to fire the last twice.
6th	7 6th (7) (9/1 +36%) Val Dancer		9 9/1(+36%)																															(7) Val Dancer 9/1, Runner-up in a bumper and made second hurdles start a winning one at Bangor (19.6f. heavy) in November. No real impact in 3 subsequent starts, though, and while his heavy handicap debut defeat at Plumpton can probably be attributed to the step up to 25f, he now needs to get back on track. 3m1f may have stretched him on handicap debut but he still has something to prove.
7th	1 7th (1) (28/1 -100%) Message Personnel		28 28/1(-100%)																															(1) Message Personnel 28/1, Hurdles winner in France and runner-up twice from 3 starts on these shores last term. Absent since poor reappearance/handicap bow at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve (that was his first run following a wind op and since undergone another) but that was surely too bad to be true. Cheekpieces applied. Pulled up in sole handicap but has had another wind op since and is in top hands.
8th	5 8th (5) (4/1 +27%) King Of Brazil		4 4/1(+27%)																															(5) King Of Brazil 4/1, Modest form in bumpers but much better signs over hurdles, confirming debut promise when landing 2m novice at Warwick last month. Didn't do a great deal wrong when third of 12 under a penalty upped to 20.5f at Newbury since and may have more to offer now handicapping. Warwick novice winner; begins handicap life on fair mark and could have more to offer.
9th	4 9th (4) (18/1 -50%) No No Tonic		18 18/1(-50%)																															(4) No No Tonic 18/1, Likeable mare who was in good order during the winter, scoring twice at Wincanton and also runner-up on 2 occasions at Chepstow in February. However, form has taken a turn for the worse recently and she needs to bounce back. In good form in the winter but below best the last twice and a revival is required.

16:00 Ffos Las Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well from this summary as each one has its own strengths and weaknesses. However, some horses that stand out are 4/1 (2) BUMPY JOHNSON, 4/1 (9) BIG AMBITIONS, 4.5/1 (5) KING OF BRAZIL, and 9/1 (6) STANS THE MAN. 4/1 (2) BUMPY JOHNSON has solid claims and has performed well in recent races. 4/1 (9) BIG AMBITIONS is lightly raced and is open to improvement on handicap debut. 4.5/1 (5) KING OF BRAZIL has shown improvement over hurdles and could have more to offer in handicaps. 9/1 (6) STANS THE MAN has potential and may do better in this race as the heavy ground may have been too much for him in his last race.

BUMPY JOHNSON returned to form when a neck second at Exeter earlier in the month and a 3lb raise from the handicapper may not be enough to prevent David Pipe's inmate from gaining a second success over C&D. Big Ambitions makes his handicap debut off what looks a fair opening mark and he can't be discounted over this slightly stiffer test. King Of Brazil also makes his first foray into this sphere and enters calculations too.

BIG AMBITIONS chased home a decent novice in Etalon on his hurdles debut at Wetherby and again showed promise at Lingfield next time. The 5-y-o appeals as the type to take a step forward now going down the handicap route off what may well turn out to be a handy opening mark. King of Brazil is also unexposed in this sphere and is next on the list ahead of Stans The Man, who will find this more palatable than the valuable Sandown handicap he contested last month.

The very lightly 5yo BIG AMBITIONS (nap) is open to improvement on this handicap debut and he's the pick ahead of Stans The Man.

1	4 1st (4) (18/1 -100%) Long Symphony		18 18/1(-100%)																															(4) Long Symphony 18/1, Improved in a first-time tongue strap following almost 2 years off when winning bumper at Wetherby in February. Folded tamely on hurdles debut at Newcastle just 3 weeks later, however. Steps up markedly in trip after a breathing operation. 40-1 bumper winner but well beaten on hurdle debut at Newcastle; wind surgery since.
2	6 2nd (6) (2.5/1 +29%) Norton Hill		2.5 2.5/1(+29%)																															(6) Norton Hill 2.5/1, Bumper winner for Jack Barber who had been shaping up well over hurdles but took a crashing fall upped in trip at Fontwell (25.8f) on Boxing Day. Remains with potential if that hasn't left a mark. Has had a breathing operation and sterner headgear tried. Bumper winner who brings respectable handicap form; she's one to consider.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/1 -57%) James Jet		11 11/1(-57%)																															(3) James Jet 11/1, Another staying chaser in the making who was successful from a couple of subsequent winners when landing an Irish point on debut in November (fetched £45,000 after) and shaped well enough on recent hurdles debut at Ascot. Longer trip here will suit. Improvement needed on second rules start but this point winner has potential.
4	7 4th (7) (4/1 -78%) St Patricks Bridge		4 4/1(-78%)																															(7) St Patricks Bridge 4/1, Showed much more than previously over hurdles when second in 9-runner novice at Taunton (19f, good to soft, 66/1) in December, clear of rest. This longer trip should suit on breeding and he's one to consider. Second to useful rival at Taunton last time when back on better ground; key player.
5th	2 5th (2) (40/1 -43%) Hill Of Tara		40 40/1(-43%)																															(2) Hill Of Tara 40/1, From a good jumping family but well held in bumper (in December 2021) and 2 races over hurdles. Fair fifth of 17 in sole bumper but well beaten this year on first two hurdle starts.
8	8 |PU| (8) (1.1/1 +51%) Wideeyedandlegless		1.1 1.1/1(+51%)																															(8) Wideeyedandlegless 1.1/1, Comfortably won sole start in Irish points and has shown plenty in maidens/novice over hurdles. Has races in him. Form reads well in this line-up; could be good opportunity to get off the mark under rules.
1	1 |PU| (1) (50/1 -127%) East Bridge		50 50/1(-127%)																															(1) East Bridge 50/1, Cost plenty but easy to back and well held in the Warwick mud on debut in bumper at the turn of the year. Step up in trip will suit now going hurdling. Chaser on looks. Goes up in trip on hurdle debut but was tailed off on sole bumper start at Warwick.

16:35 Ffos Las Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 22f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary provided, the horse with the most potential to do well is 2.25/1 (8) WIDEEYEDANDLEGLESS. The form of this horse reads well in the line-up, and it has shown plenty in maidens/novice over hurdles. Additionally, it comfortably won its sole start in Irish points, which suggests it has races in it. While it took a crashing fall upped in trip at Fontwell, the horse remains with potential if that hasn't left a mark. With a breathing operation and sterner headgear tried, 2.25/1 (8) WIDEEYEDANDLEGLESS is one to consider for this race.

WIDEEYEDANDLEGLESS posted creditable efforts in defeat at both Chepstow and Wincanton last month and may have been found a good opportunity to shed his maiden tag under Rules at the fourth time of asking. St Patricks Bridge ran his best race to date when runner-up over 2m3f at Taunton in December and this longer trip of 2m6f could unlock some improvement. Norton Hill was still travelling okay when falling in the back straight at Fontwell on Boxing Day and also warrants consideration now returned to maiden company.

ST PATRICKS BRIDGE ran well at Taunton in December and this longer trip should suit so he gets the vote over Wideeyedandlegless and Norton Hill.

Point winner WIDEEYEDANDLEGLESS has shown promise on all three hurdle starts and gets the nod ahead of St Patricks Bridge.

Marked improvement required if he's to figure now sent chasing. Nothing remotely positive in bumpers or hurdles (0-7); 3lb 'wrong' for chase debut.
3	1 3rd (1) (2.75/1 -46%) Bolsover Bill		2.75 2.75/1(-46%)																															(1) Bolsover Bill 2.75/1, In fine form with the tongue tie refitted, gaining a fourth success over fences at Plumpton (19.7f) 6 weeks ago. Up 5 lb/had wind op since but he's a player once more. Wind surgery since scoring at Plumpton (5lb lower mark) six weeks ago; 3-6 for Dylan Kitts.
4	3 4th (3) (4/1 +0%) Natty Night		4 4/1(+0%)																															(3) Natty Night 4/1, Dual Flat/maiden hurdle winner and best effort yet over fences when 8 lengths second at Hereford (20.8f) 32 days ago. Remains early days in this sphere and not out of things with a repeat. Runner-up at Hereford (2m5f) last month; still unexposed as a chaser; worth considering..
5th	4 5th (4) (6/1 +40%) Ring The Moon		6 6/1(+40%)																															(4) Ring The Moon 6/1, Fifth career success when taking a Chepstow handicap hurdle (2m) on penultimate start in March and similar form when third in a Stratford seller (18.6f) 24 days ago. Has better form to his name as a chaser and 4 lb below last winning mark in this sphere. 33-1 winner two starts ago; beaten in seller since & switches back to fences; risky enough.
5	5 |U| (5) (4.5/1 +68%) Higgs		4.5 4.5/1(+68%)																															(5) Higgs 4.5/1, Dual hurdles winner back in 2018 who wasn't disgraced when runner-up over further here in March but lines up having been pulled up at Hereford (20.8f) 19 days ago. Bounce back called for. Runner-up here (2m5f; 5lb higher) last month; less productive since; questions to answer..
9	9 |U| (9) (40/1 -21%) Gala Des Lys		40 40/1(-21%)																															(9) Gala Des Lys 40/1, Modest in bumpers/little form over hurdles and little to shout about in 2 tries over fences so far this spring. Easy enough to look elsewhere. Maiden; poor form over hurdles & fences; hard to consider; 6lb 'wrong'..
6	6 |PU| (6) (8/1 +43%) Fanfan La Colmine		8 8/1(+43%)																															(6) Fanfan La Colmine 8/1, Modest over hurdles for Chris Down and given a considerate return from 2 years off when distant third on yard/chase debut at Exeter (19.2f) 14 days ago. This should reveal more. Maiden (0-10); remote third on Exeter stable/chase debut (2m3f) a fortnight ago; 4lb lower.

17:10 Ffos Las Handicap Chase (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will perform well. However, 1.88/1 (1) BOLSOVER BILL and 3.5/1 (2) HAVEANOTHERGOFLO seem to have positive recent form and may be worth considering. 4/1 (3) NATTY NIGHT and 10/1 (4) RING THE MOON also have potential as they are relatively unexposed as chasers. 14/1 (5) HIGGS, 14/1 (6) FANFAN LA COLMINE, Beannaigh, and 33/1 (9) GALA DES LYS have either had recent setbacks or lack form, making them less attractive options.

Bolsover Bill recorded a fourth success over fences when winning a small-field affair at Plumpton last month, but a career-best performance will be required today having gone up 5lb in the ratings for that victory. The son of Getaway still demands respect, but a chance is taken on the lightly-raced HAVEANOTHERGOFLO, who makes both his chase and handicap debut on this rare visit to Ffos Las by the Donald McCain team. Abaya Du Mathan arrives in good heart and the veteran is likely to be in mix once more too.

A winner of his only start in points, HAVEANOTHERGOFLO has shown fair form on 2 of his 3 starts over hurdles and, making a quick switch to chasing/now handicapping, he's an intriguing runner with his yard boasting a solid record with it's runners here. The likeable Bolsover Bill rates a lead threat, with Natty Night another fancied to be in the mix.

The long-distance traveller and chasing debutant HAVEANOTHERGOFLO is narrowly preferred to the Plumpton scorer Bolsover Bill.

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.
