13:53 Fontwell (Class 5) 25f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (7/2 +78%) Of Corse I Can	3.5 7/2(+78%)	(5) Of Corse I Can 7/2, Continued poor form on chase debut when comfortably held in a handicap chase over 2m4f at Worcester last time; regressive. Has stamina to prove and there would be further doubts about that on soft ground.
2	4 2nd (4) (3/1 +14%) He Is A Cracker	3 3/1(+14%)	(4) He Is A Cracker 3/1, Outpaced and in need of the run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m6f here latest; better over fences and could revive. C&D winner but tailed off here over hurdles last month after a long absence.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/4 -10%) Unblinking	2.75 11/4(-10%)	(3) Unblinking 11/4, Ran to form when 15l third in a handicap chase here on his most recent run; form in and out; not dismissed. Latest third here was quite remote but he still needs respecting in this bad a race.
4	2 4th (2) (5/2 -54%) Just A Memory	2.5 5/2(-54%)	(2) Just A Memory 5/2, Needed every yard when dropping in trip, ran to form landing a handicap by a neck off 94 over 2m5f at Newton Abbot last time; fair mark on hurdle form, progressing over fences and may have more to offer at 3m. A winner last time out and she's one who won't mind any rain.
1	1 \|U\| (1) (9/1 -13%) Midnight Gold	9 9/1(-13%)	(1) Midnight Gold 9/1, No obvious excuse when finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle over 2m7f at Worcester most recently; form in and out; risky Bit to prove on the wellbeing front and probably wants good ground (rain forecast).

13:53 Fontwell (Class 5) 25f Race Class Flow

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

Just A Memory returned to winning ways in this grade over 2m5f at Newton Abbot last month and will have no issues with this extra yardage, so she has to be considered. However, UNBLINKING finished third over C&D on his most recent start and was dropped 1lb. Robert Bevis' veteran lurks on an appealing rating and looks the way to go. Of Corse I Can is another to note.

There's plenty of rain forecast and that alone entitles JUST A MEMORY (nap) to the vote as most of her rivals probably want good ground.

14:28 Fontwell (Class 5) 17f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (1/1 +0%) Jorebel	1 1/1(+0%)	(5) Jorebel 1/1, Won eased down, improving back from a break under an aggressive ride to land a handicap by a nose off 89 here last time; progressing, effective at 2m and likely to get this bit further. Set a strong pace and just held on over C&D recently after jockey had eased up late on.
2	2 2nd (2) (7/2 +13%) Motazzen	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(2) Motazzen 7/2, Ran to best back from hurdling, scoring by 1/2l off 68 over 12f at Southwell on his penultimate start; ran to form when sixth beaten 8 1/4l off 74 last time; effective at 12f+, handles any ground except heavy; in excellent form under both codes. Up the weights after his hat-trick but has since won on the Flat; rain welcomed.
3	3 3rd (3) (13/2 +24%) As Fast As Wind	6.5 13/2(+24%)	(3) As Fast As Wind 13/2, Back to form when upped in trip, winning by 1 1/4l off 60 over 1m6f at Salisbury on her penultimate start; stays well and may need testing 12f, acts on soft and good; effective over 2m hurdles where she is not fully exposed. Has been running well on the Flat and returns to hurdling off a competitive mark.
4	6 4th (6) (50/1 0%) It's Life	50 50/1(0%)	(6) It's Life 50/1, Badly hampered late when closing, beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap over 1m5f at Bath last time; trainer in form; effective at 2m, acts on good; still green over hurdles and probably has a bit to come. Only ninth at Bath three days ago and that after a forgettable handicap debut over hurdles.
5th	1 5th (1) (8/1 -60%) Mad Maxios	8 8/1(-60%)	(1) Mad Maxios 8/1, Progressing over hurdles, won a 4yo hurdle at Chepstow over 2m by 1/2l last time; has a bit to find off this mark. Lightly raced juvenile hurdle winner but with a bit to prove off this mark.
6th	4 6th (4) (9/1 -6%) Miss Kassiopi	9 9/1(-6%)	(4) Miss Kassiopi 9/1, A bit below form at a stiffer track when well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Worcester last time; returning from a break and has a bit to find. Makes stable debut after a break and the ability is there to be involved.

14:28 Fontwell (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Motazzen completed a hat-trick in this sphere at Southwell in January and has recorded a victory on the Flat since, so he is one to watch out for. Mad Maxios got off the mark at Chepstow in April and is interesting on his handicap bow, but JOREBEL gets the vote. Chris Gordon's charge struck over track and trip, despite his jockey not riding him out to the line, last month and he's worth sticking with for now.

The forecast is a bit of a worry when he's yet to prove himself on soft ground but JOREBEL is ahead of the game being 6lb well in.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	4 1st (4) (1/1 +50%) Fresh Perspective	1 1/1(+50%)	(4) Fresh Perspective 1/1, Yard has won the last two runnings of this race; far too keen when upped in grade and finished down the field in a Listed NH Flat Race over 2m at Ascot most recently. Trainer in form; returning from a long layoff and a threat. Won a Uttoxeter bumper before finishing tailed off in a Listed race at Aintree.
2	5 2nd (5) (18/5 -3%) Jimmy Hurdstrom	3.6 18/5(-3%)	(5) Jimmy Hurdstrom 18/5, Ran to form when second, beaten 3 1/4l in a bumper over 2m at Kelso latest; progressive in bumpers. A 3m point winner who will likely stay a bit further than 2m over hurdles. Point winner who ran second in good-ground bumpers at Wetherby and Kelso.
3	6 3rd (6) (15/8 +44%) Park Talk	1.875 15/8(+44%)	(6) Park Talk 15/8, Improved when winning a maiden at Taylorstown over 3m by a length last time; a 3m point winner suited by good ground, with more to come under rules. Did quite well in 3m Irish points and has joined a good yard for rules action.
4	8 4th (8) (125/1 +17%) Driving Miss D'azy	125 125/1(+17%)	(8) Driving Miss D'azy 125/1, Raced wide and made a poor bumper debut when well beaten in a 4yo bumper over 2m at Uttoxeter on only start; hood on for the first time and has it all to prove. Finished last in a Uttoxeter bumper when 50-1 and headgear is soon turned to.
5th	3 5th (3) (22/1 +33%) Foinix	22 22/1(+33%)	(3) Foinix 22/1, Ran to form when second, beaten 3l in a 12f handicap at Brighton latest; effective from 10f to 16f and has been in good form on the flat of late. Should stay the trip over hurdles but he's a modest and exposed Flat performer (4-46).
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (22/1 -159%) Country Style Boy	22 22/1(-159%)	(2) Country Style Boy 22/1, Imperial Monarch gelding; faces a tough enough task on debut. Not a convincing pedigree and this is a belated debut, but he's in a respected yard.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (250/1 -67%) Joyful Voice	250 250/1(-67%)	(7) Joyful Voice 250/1, Far too free and finished down the field in a novice over 12f at Lingfield most recent; a 12f soft ground bumper winner in France but yet to fire on the flat for current yard. 0-5 in bumpers/hurdles in France; tailed off in 1m2f/1m4f novices in September.

15:03 Fontwell (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Point-to-point winner FRESH PERSPECTIVE went in on his Rules debut at Uttoxeter in a bumper prior to finding a Listed contest at Ascot too warm. Jamie Snowden's five-year-old now makes his first appearance over timber and he could be the one to beat. Whatyouwaitingfor shed his maiden tag at Newton Abbot in August and it's hard to ignore his claims. Park Talk warrants a market check.

This may go the way of JIMMY HURDSTROM who posted respectable RPRs (in this context) when second in his last two bumpers.

15:38 Fontwell (Class 4) 17f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (10/3 -21%) The Bellhop	3.333333 10/3(-21%)	(6) The Bellhop 10/3, May have found the ground too soft when comfortably held in a 10f Sandown handicap last time. Effective at 10f but may not truly stay further, acts on fast ground. Tricky to assess starting out over hurdles. Some promise in five Flat runs, though backward step when encountering soft last time.
2	4 2nd (4) (16/5 +4%) Manyana Blue	3.2 16/5(+4%)	(4) Manyana Blue 16/5, Ran to form when second, beaten 8l, in a juvenile hurdle over 2m1f at Newton Abbot last time. Effective at 2m on good ground and progressing. Bumped into a good one last time; can be too free but has leading form claims.
3	2 3rd (2) (15/2 -50%) Bouboule	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(2) Bouboule 15/2, Made mistakes but showed minor promise when fourth, beaten 5 1/2l, in a maiden hurdle here on debut. Blinkers go on for the first time. Effective at 2m with more to come judged on flat form. Limited Flat maiden and was behind Spuddling when fourth on hurdle debut here.
4	3 4th (3) (25/1 -14%) Flagon Dry	25 25/1(-14%)	(3) Flagon Dry 25/1, Did too much too soon when upped in trip and was beaten 7 1/2l in an 11f Windsor handicap last time. Effective at 8f on good ground and all-weather. Form has been regressive this summer on the flat. Has won on the Flat but regressed this year and a bit risky on hurdling debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (4/1 +20%) Spuddling	4 4/1(+20%)	(5) Spuddling 4/1, Made a promising start over hurdles when 3 1/4l third in a maiden hurdle here on latest outing. Trainer in form. Effective at 2m and in good form in both codes, with more to come over hurdles. Beaten just over 3l on recent hurdling debut over C&D when ahead of Bouboule; chance.
6th	7 6th (7) (5/2 +67%) Yellow Card	2.5 5/2(+67%)	(7) Yellow Card 5/2, Unseated in a juvenile hurdle over 2m1f at Newton Abbot last time. Effective at 10f to 12f. Acts on any ground and was consistent on flat. Fair claims. Unseated rider when 6-1 for recent hurdling debut (runner-up Manyana Blue was 7-2).
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (80/1 -100%) Banksman	80 80/1(-100%)	(1) Banksman 80/1, A bit free and outpaced, looked in need of a stiffer test when beaten 9l in a 7f Chepstow handicap last time. In good form prior and returns from a short break. Effective from 7f to 8f on a sound surface, progressive on the flat this summer. Flat wins came in modest races and stamina wouldn't be assured for hurdling.

Penalised for her emphatic maiden win at Newton Abbot, MANYANA BLUE was no match for the progressive Lord, who has subsequently landed a hat-trick, when runner-up at the same track last time. However, the daughter of Postponed looks worthy of another chance with the talented conditional Luke Scott taking a valuable 3lb off her back. Spuddling finished a promising third here on his hurdling debut and can confirm superiority with the fourth-placed Bouboule.

Marginal preference is for MANYANA BLUE who chased home a good juvenile at Newton Abbot.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (5/2 +38%) Reallyntruthfully	2.5 5/2(+38%)	(2) Reallyntruthfully 5/2, Below form when down the field in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last time; had been in good form before. Represents a value selection on the balance of form with promise of more to come over fences. Maiden/novice winner in six runs over hurdles and expected to make a better chaser.
2	3 2nd (3) (15/8 +38%) Hecouldbetheone	1.875 15/8(+38%)	(3) Hecouldbetheone 15/8, Ran to form but outpaced, possibly unsuited by the drop in trip, when third beaten 8 1/2l in a handicap hurdle at Stratford last time. Off a short break; consistent and likes to race prominently. Below best back over hurdles last time and this looks a bit tougher than usual.
3	5 3rd (5) (9/2 +0%) Duhallow Tommy	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(5) Duhallow Tommy 9/2, Below form when comfortably held in a 2m handicap chase at Newbury last time; has a bit to find. Still on a competitive mark, has a fair record when fresh and won't mind any rain.
4	1 4th (1) (13/2 -160%) Southoftheborder	6.5 13/2(-160%)	(1) Southoftheborder 13/2, Well backed, showed similar level to hurdle form when fourth on chase debut, beaten 6 1/4l in a 2m4f handicap chase at Warwick last time; returning from a long layoff. Effective over 2m–2 1/2m, point, bumper and hurdles winner, can score over fences. Lots of promise for Nicky Henderson, including his chase debut; same owners.
5th	4 5th (4) (11/2 -22%) Ballywilliam Boy	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(4) Ballywilliam Boy 11/2, Did not find as much as expected in first-time visor when fourth, beaten 12l, in a 2m1f handicap chase at Stratford last time. Prefers a slightly stiffer test than 2m; slight enthusiasm concerns but well treated on Irish form. Both wins in Ireland but mostly consistent in small-field chases this season.

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

Beaten over hurdles last time, HECOULDBETHEONE had shown progressive form over fences prior to that. James Owen's charge landed a brace at Uttoxeter in June and, only 2lb higher than his most recent success, he's taken to pick up the winning thread back over the larger obstacles. A dual winner over timber, Reallyntruthfully could prove competitive on his chasing bow, while Southoftheborder is worth a second look.

The interesting horse is SOUTHOFTHEBORDER who flattered to deceive for Nicky Henderson but showed considerable potential.

1	3 1st (3) (2/1 +11%) Ivane	2 2/1(+11%)	(3) Ivane 2/1, Travelled well and scored cosily by 4 1/2l off 96 over 2m5f at Sedgefield on penultimate start; best at 2 1/2–2 3/4m on good ground; strong form for the grade on last hurdles run and thriving since move from Ireland. Running well over fences; effective hurdler and has less to prove than many in here.
2	6 2nd (6) (10/3 +0%) Lady Henrietta	3.333333 10/3(+0%)	(6) Lady Henrietta 10/3, Keen but returned to form when third, beaten 11l, in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Worcester last time under a positive ride; decent ground suits. Beaten 11l into third at Worcester (fifth handicap) and only 1lb lower here.
3	1 3rd (1) (13/2 +0%) Doctor Midas	6.5 13/2(+0%)	(1) Doctor Midas 13/2, Below form when fourth, beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap hurdle over 3m at Ludlow last time; remains unexposed and value selection on balance of form. Comfortably held in two runs for current yard, the latest his handicap debut over 3m.
4	4 4th (4) (11/4 -22%) Summer In Milan	2.75 11/4(-22%)	(4) Summer In Milan 11/4, Held every chance and ran to form when 14l third in a handicap chase over 2m3f here last time; returns from a break and looks the pick on race times. C&D winner in a first-time visor in March; fair runs since, including chases.
5th	8 5th (8) (100/1 -203%) Needtoknow	100 100/1(-203%)	(8) Needtoknow 100/1, Green and outpaced, continued in poor form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Newton Abbot last time; cheekpieces first time; yet to show much and likely to want further than 2m. Limited promise thus far and finds herself 11lb out of the weights for handicap debut.
6th	2 6th (2) (10/1 -25%) Belles Benefit	10 10/1(-25%)	(2) Belles Benefit 10/1, Quickened and won readily by 10l off 96 at Stratford on her penultimate start; made too much use of when fifth, beaten 22l off 103 last time; effective around 3m and suited by good ground; in good form until latest run. Below her best last time but won the time before and this isn't a strong race.
7th	7 7th (7) (16/1 +52%) Guguss Collonges	16 16/1(+52%)	(7) Guguss Collonges 16/1, Needed the run and finished below form down the field in a handicap hurdle at Stratford last time; better over fences and has a bit to find. Three chase wins but 0-17 over hurdles and been struggling for a while in both disciplines.

BELLES BENEFIT found the 3m2f trip at Warwick beyond her last time, having returned the impressive winner over 2m6f at Stratford before that. Ben Case's charge has solid claims on that form and a bold bid looks assured. Ivane reverts to hurdling with a shout having landed a chase at Sedgefield last month, while Summer In Milan is another to note reverting to the smaller obstacles.

The 7yo IVANE was a strong favourite to defy this mark over fences here 11 days ago only to crash out of the race early.

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.
