1	3 1st (3) (1.75/1 +0%) Scrum Diddly		1.75 1.75/1(+0%)																															(3) Scrum Diddly 1.75/1, Seemingly benefited from the fitting of cheekpieces, step up to 3m and switch to handicap company when scoring in good style at Ludlow (good) recently. It's easy enough to pick holes in that form but leading claims under a penalty nonetheless. Won readily by 15l on recent handicap debut; commands respect under 7lb penalty.
2	2 2nd (2) (40/1 -82%) Ebony Gale		40 40/1(-82%)																															(2) Ebony Gale 40/1, Won 4 handicaps over fences (at up to 24.3f) for Philip Hobbs in 2021. However, he hasn't shown much spark in a couple of runs for new connections since returning form over a year off last month and the first-time visor will need to help trigger a revival if he's to make an impact here. Has looked out of sorts on both starts for this stable; headgear switched today.
3	5 3rd (5) (5.5/1 +50%) Ahead Of The Field		5.5 5.5/1(+50%)																															(5) Ahead Of The Field 5.5/1, Maiden hurdle winner in Ireland in March 2021 and scored at second attempt for this yard/over fences at Southwell in December of that year. Winless since, however, and while he hasn't fared badly back in this sphere the last twice and has been given a chance by the handicapper, others look stronger. Steadied the ship with two fairly respectable runs this year and is on a good mark now.
4	1 4th (1) (2.75/1 -22%) Halligator		2.75 2.75/1(-22%)																															(1) Halligator 2.75/1, Promise sole bumper start in Ireland and made a successful hurdles debut for new yard at Uttoxeter last summer. Runner-up both subsequent appearances, including when upped to 20.7f for recent handicap bow at Huntingdon (soft), and this stiffer test could be just what he needs. Second to progressive rival when upped to 2m4f for handicap debut; up in trip again here.
5th	4 5th (4) (6/1 -50%) The Boola Boss		6 6/1(-50%)																															(4) The Boola Boss 6/1, Stepped up on chase debut third when getting on top close home upped to 23f at Worcester (good to soft) 11 months ago. Absent since but he's unexposed as a stayer and will be a threat under Harry Cobden back hurdling if fit enough to do himself justice. Low-mileage 7yo; absent since winning 14-runner chase last June; market may guide.
6th	6 6th (6) (7.5/1 +12%) Braganza Bay		7.5 7.5/1(+12%)																															(6) Braganza Bay 7.5/1, Resumed winning ways back in headgear in 11-runner handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f, good to soft) in March. Hard to draw any firm conclusions from subsequent Haydock effort (unseated at the seventh) but his rather up-and-down profile tempers enthusiasm. Won twice last season but is too inconsistent to rely upon.
7	7 |F| (7) (11/1 +21%) Chinook		11 11/1(+21%)																															(7) Chinook 11/1, Still looking for first success but much better effort for this stable when fifth at Ludlow (21.2f, good to soft) last month, leaving the strong impression that she's worth another try at this trip. Not discounted. 0-9 over hurdles but bettered low-key stable debut when close fifth at Ludlow last month.

14:45 Ffos Las Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

SCRUM DIDDLY made a mockery of his first handicap figure, relishing the step to this trip when toying with the opposition at Ludlow. It is fair to assume the assessor won't be best pleased so Oliver Sherwood is wise to get his five-year-old out again under a penalty before revenge is taken. Halligator made a pleasing beginning to his own handicap career when runner-up at Huntingdon and there should be more to come from him. Braganza Bay unseated when attempting to supplement a Huntingdon triumph at Haydock, but must not be written off yet.

HALLIGATOR has been raised 3 lb for his handicap debut second at Huntingdon but that was an encouraging effort, and one which suggests that this new trip could be the catalyst for improvement. Kim Bailey's representative is marginally preferred to Scrum Diddly, who did the job well on his first run in a handicap at Ludlow and is bound to prove popular under a penalty here. Chinook should be on the premises if able to build on her latest effort and the reappearing The Boola Boss also has claims.

It's hard to get away from SCRUM DIDDLY, who drew well clear to score at Ludlow eight days ago and looks well treated under a penalty.

1	1 1st (1) (2/1 +0%) Amateur		2 2/1(+0%)																															(1) Amateur 2/1, Two of his 3 wins in this sphere have been registered over C&D, the latest off this mark last spring. Back-to-form third when bidding to win that same handicap for the third year running last month (showed signs of heat stress post race) and a bold show is anticipated. Dual winner of C&D West Wales National; third in 2023 edition six weeks ago; high on list.
2	4 2nd (4) (12/1 -33%) Coup De Pinceau		12 12/1(-33%)																															(4) Coup De Pinceau 12/1, Winner of a 4m hunter chase at Cheltenham last April and ran solid races in defeat on next 2 starts. Has failed to fire in a handful of appearances so far this year, though, and needs to bounce back. 4m hunter chase winner in 2022 and not beaten far in recent Norfolk National at Fakenham.
3	5 3rd (5) (4.5/1 -13%) Gwencily Berbas		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(5) Gwencily Berbas 4.5/1, Isn't the force of old but proved up to taking advantage of a falling mark in the Devon National at Exeter in February. Latest seventh in a big-field Cheltenham handicap (good) over this trip was creditable and claims down 2 lb here, particularly if he puts in a fluent round of jumping. Inconsistent nowadays but won Devon National in February and is only 2lb higher here.
4	7 4th (7) (8.5/1 +15%) Hotel Du Nord		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(7) Hotel Du Nord 8.5/1, Dual point winner who made it 13th time lucky under Rules when landing a 25f Warwick veterans' chase on debut for present yard in March. Pulled up at Wetherby since but he could have a part to play if able to bounce back here with Harry Cobden doing the steering. Won on stable debut in March but pulled up since; not easy to predict here.
3	3 |PU| (3) (3.5/1 +50%) Fairlawn Flyer		3.5 3.5/1(+50%)																															(3) Fairlawn Flyer 3.5/1, Made it 4-4 over fences here when landing a 23.8f handicap (heavy) in first-time cheekpieces in December. However, subsequent efforts at Chepstow and Perth have been poor and while the return to this course/change of headgear could spark a return to form, the drying ground is an additional concern. Fortunate course winner in December; well beaten on other three starts last season.
6	6 |PU| (6) (4/1 +0%) The Macon Lugnatic		4 4/1(+0%)																															(6) The Macon Lugnatic 4/1, Best effort for a while when chasing Gwencily Berbas home in the Devon National at Exeter (30.7f, good) but, commensurate with his up-and-down profile, he failed to back that up at the same course next time. Pulled up last time but has claims if judged on earlier Exeter second.

15:20 Ffos Las Handicap Chase (Class 4) 28f Race Class Flow

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

AMATEUR has plenty in his favour having won twice over this C&D, the latest off this mark in April last year on similar ground. He looked like he was coming back to form when third here last month, with a drop in class now in his favour. Hotel Du Nord may have found the race came too soon when pulled up at Wetherby but he won his previous race and could go well, along with Fairlawn Flyer, who tries blinkers for the first time.

Dual C&D winner AMATEUR returned to form when third here last month and he looks by far the most solid option. That said, an error-free round would see Gwencily Berbas competitive and he is next on the list ahead of Hotel du Nord.

Dual West Wales National winner AMATEUR (nap) is taken to collect a third C&D win. The Macon Lugnatic is second choice.

1	2 1st (2) (3.5/1 +46%) Nibras Gold		3.5 3.5/1(+46%)																															(2) Nibras Gold 3.5/1, Won a brace of staying handicaps on the level last summer and has taken well to hurdling, successful at Worcester on second start before a sound second under a penalty at that venue. Shade disappointing on handicap debut in September and off since (has had a wind op). Took well to hurdling last summer; absent since underwhelming handicap debut in September.
2	1 2nd (1) (2.25/1 +44%) John Betjeman		2.25 2.25/1(+44%)																															(1) John Betjeman 2.25/1, Not the most consistent but back to winning ways in determined style at Ffos Las in March, rallying well despite being carried left. Matched that form when second at Wincanton 5 days later and has carried on the good work on the level, since, placed twice. Up 3 lb but can be a factor again. Gained all three wins over C&D and returns here in good form; respected.
3	8 3rd (8) (4.5/1 -50%) Cumhacht		4.5 4.5/1(-50%)																															(8) Cumhacht 4.5/1, Just denied in bumper at Thurles for John Kiely last spring. Disappointing in that sphere for this yard but shaped quite well both hurdles starts this spring. Potential improver now handicapping. Made the frame on both hurdling starts and is open to improvement in handicaps.
4	10 4th (10) (7/1 +50%) Good Impression		7 7/1(+50%)																															(10) Good Impression 7/1, Successful twice during the autumn, latterly over C&D in October. Hasn't scaled same heights upon returning to action this spring. Needs to better his recent efforts but won over C&D off today's mark in October.
5th	3 5th (3) (22/1 +33%) Tiger Voice		22 22/1(+33%)																															(3) Tiger Voice 22/1, Winning hurdler/chaser for Henry de Bromhead in Ireland but, having changed hands for £18,000 in October, he hasn't shown much spark for present connections. Useful in his prime but in poor form for new stable this year.
6th	9 6th (9) (4.5/1 +25%) Coal Fire		4.5 4.5/1(+25%)																															(9) Coal Fire 4.5/1, More like it when mid-field over C&D on his final qualifying run in January. Off since but handicaps more suitable. Showed first glimmer of promise in C&D novice in January; makes handicap debut today.
7th	5 7th (5) (80/1 -186%) Loukarak		80 80/1(-186%)																															(5) Loukarak 80/1, Fair form shown over both hurdles and fences, latest when 3½ lengths second of 4 in 3-y-o event at Dax on chasing debut in September. Well held on stable debut 3 weeks ago and back down in trip. Showed ability in France last year but was pulled up on recent stable debut.
8th	6 8th (6) (12/1 +45%) Turpin Gold		12 12/1(+45%)																															(6) Turpin Gold 12/1, Fair in bumpers and going the right way over hurdles, coming good in 2m Stratford novice in September. Lame at Huntingdon a month later and off since. Handicap debut. Stratford novice winner in September; may have improvement to come in handicaps this year.

15:50 Ffos Las Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

John Betjeman seems to save his best for this track with five starts over hurdles reaping their rewards with three wins, a second and a third all over this distance. He should go well but may find this ground fast enough for him, and a narrow vote goes to GAVIN instead. He hacked up by 16 lengths in a selling handicap at Fakenham and an added 6lb from the handicapper may not stop him following up. Nibras Gold and Turpin Gold could also go well.

CUMHACHT boasts plenty of scope from this opening mark given his bumper form so rates a really interesting contender with Harry Cobden a positive jockey booking. Gavin starts out for a new yard in excellent order so is a solid rival, with John Betjeman completing the shortlist.

Preference is for handicap debutant CUMHACHT, who shaped with significant promise when third in a Wincanton maiden last month.

1	3 1st (3) (8.5/1 +6%) Easkey Lad		8.5 8.5/1(+6%)																															(3) Easkey Lad 8.5/1, Off the mark over fences at Uttoxeter (3m) last autumn. 28/1, fell around halfway on last month's return from a break. Has refitted cheekpieces added to the tongue tie he's worn lately. Well capable off this sort of mark at his best. Fell last month, after a break, but his stylish win in October makes him of interest.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 -118%) Unblinking		6 6/1(-118%)																															(4) Unblinking 6/1, Opened chase account at the fourth attempt in a weak race at Hereford (25f, good) in February. Well held next 2 starts but back on form when length second of 8 at Fontwell 12 days ago. One to consider. Mixed fortunes this year but was back in good form when second at Fontwell 12 days ago.
3	7 3rd (7) (14/1 +0%) O'faolains Lad		14 14/1(+0%)																															(7) O'faolains Lad 14/1, Won back-to-back staying handicap chases in autumn 2021 but not seen again until 3 non-completions this spring. Difficult to assess at present. Has a lot to prove after three recent non-completions but return to good ground will help.
4	11 4th (11) (3.5/1 +84%) Blackjacktennessee		3.5 3.5/1(+84%)																															(11) Blackjacktennessee 3.5/1, Modest form at best under Rules and recent point efforts nothing to get excited about. Could only consider if backed. Seemed to have returned to form in a recent point; not ruled out.
5th	5 5th (5) (8.5/1 +29%) Reign Suepreme		8.5 8.5/1(+29%)																															(5) Reign Suepreme 8.5/1, Point winner. Hasn't progressed as might have bene hoped under Rules and he was beaten around 20 lengths when third over C&D last time. Didn't run badly on last two outings but now 0-10 over fences; others look stronger.
6th	13 6th (13) (40/1 +20%) Chain Smoker		40 40/1(+20%)																															(13) Chain Smoker 40/1, Limited hurdler/chaser who is hard to fancy. Pulled up in both chases this year and well beaten over hurdles last week.
7th	12 7th (12) (4/1 +80%) Justshortofabubble		4 4/1(+80%)																															(12) Justshortofabubble 4/1, Remains a maiden after 17 starts over hurdles. Not an obvious one to make a successful start to his chase career. 0-17 over hurdles; placed twice this year but is 2lb wrong for today's chasing debut.
10	10 |PU| (10) (6/1 -100%) Beannaigh Do		6 6/1(-100%)																															(10) Beannaigh Do 6/1, No show over hurdles but fared better switched to fences over 19.5f here last month, finishing second to one who has run well again since. Good chance if he can build on that now stepping up in trip. 0-6 over hurdles but was second here (2m3f) on recent chase debut; tries a new trip today.
6	6 |PU| (6) (7.5/1 +46%) Unai		7.5 7.5/1(+46%)																															(6) Unai 7.5/1, Fair winning chaser but has offered little last term. Mark in freefall but has too much to prove. Ran well to a point on his latest outing but his claims are not compelling.
8	8 |PU| (8) (11/1 -120%) Prince Of Bad Lins		11 11/1(-120%)																															(8) Prince Of Bad Lins 11/1, Maiden who ran poorly over hurdles when last seen in August but had offered some hope when fourth in a couple of chases prior to that. One to note in the betting on his return to action. Ten-race maiden; absent since tailed off over hurdles nine months ago.
1	1 |PU| (1) (25/1 -79%) Fine Theatre		25 25/1(-79%)																															(1) Fine Theatre 25/1, Dual hurdles/chase winner for Paul Nolan in Ireland but latest success was back in March 2020. First sign of retaining ability for current yard when 15 lengths fifth at Worcester (23f) 14 days ago but merely passed beaten horses late on. Never looked dangerous before battling on for modest fifth last time; others preferred.

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

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

Easkey Lad struck at Uttoxeter last October but having failed to complete on his last two starts, connections will be hopeful that first-time cheekpieces can bring about a return to form. UNBLINKING almost pulled off a 16/1 shock when beaten a length at Fontwell and he may have more room for improvement than most on only his eighth start over fences, though Beannaigh Do looks a huge danger if he improves for his chasing debut when second here.

In a race where very few arrive with compelling claims, BEANNAIGH DO is given a chance to build on his chase debut second over a shorter trip here 4 weeks ago. Recent Fontwell second Unblinking is an obvious threat. Easkey Lad and First Class Return are both capable of making an impact at this level if putting their best foot forward.

Nothing has compelling claims but a chance is taken on TUDORS TREASURE, who is on a good mark if he warms to the task today.

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

Nicky Henderson throws two arrows at this and perhaps MADAM RYDER's experience was crucial in Nico de Boinville opting to partner her rather than newcomer Aston Martini. The five-year-old didn't look out of the ordinary when fifth on her Southwell debut, but she can be expected to step forward significantly. Her stablemate isn't the only interesting first-timer, with the David Pipe-trained Walk Of The Roses also making some appeal, although Quite The Getaway may pose the biggest threat to the selection.

MADAM RYDER shaped as if she'd improve for the experience when fifth at Southwell on debut and Nico de Boinville seems to prefer her over her stablemate Aston Martini, who looks an interesting newcomer. Quite The Getaway is also a player if able to bounce back to form.

David Pipe's newcomer WALK OF THE ROSES looks the part on paper and might be the answer.

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.
