20/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Crown Princess 20/1, Successful at Beverley last summer and decent third on return there last month. However, record away from Beverley not so good. | |||
2nd (7)  (9/1 +18%)Golden Melody |
9/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Golden Melody 9/1, Consistent performer and who returned with a decent third at Nottingham 12 days ago, challenging from further back than the pair that beat her. Should go well again. | |||
3rd (8)  (14/1 +30%)Vindobala |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Vindobala 14/1, Did well on the AW this winter, scoring twice at Newcastle. Not disgraced back on turf last 2 starts and worth a try at this trip. | |||
4th (11)  (6/1 +20%)Thunder Queen |
6/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Thunder Queen 6/1, Much improved when making a winning handicap debut at Windsor (8.1f, good, 16/1) on return and excuses at Brighton since. Remains unexposed. | |||
5th (13)  (14/1 +30%)Indy Moon |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Indy Moon 14/1, Much improved from debut to win 7f fillies' novice at Newmarket in October. No impact in listed race there 10 days later and improvement needed to defy this opening mark on return. | |||
6th (15)  (3/1 +25%)Nordhalla |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Nordhalla 3/1, Displayed willing attitude when landing 1m handicap at Southwell on return and followed up in similarly game fashion at Chepstow 10 days ago. Pulled clear with the runner-up for recent win so must be taken seriously in hat-trick bid over this extra furlong. | |||
7th (2)  (5/1 +33%)Alpha Cru |
5/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Alpha Cru 5/1, Three wins from 5 runs in productive 3-y-o career. Never able to land a blow on reappearance but much better when third at Doncaster 2 weeks ago, shaping as if ready for this stiffer test. Respected. | |||
8th (3)  (8/1 +0%)Lasting Legacy |
8/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lasting Legacy 8/1, Made a winning start for new yard in 1¼m Chelmsford handicap on return and not disgraced in face of a stiff task in listed race at Nottingham. Should make more of an impact here. | |||
9th (14)  (80/1 -220%)Kraken Filly |
80/1(-220%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Kraken Filly 80/1, Has an unconvincing profile and well held both starts this term. | |||
10th (12)  (6.5/1 +41%)Typical Woman |
6.5/1(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Typical Woman 6.5/1, Off the mark at the third attempt at Chelmsford (AW debut) in October. Not disgraced when fourth on handicap debut/reappearance at Haydock. leaving the impression she's ready for this stiffer test. | |||

33/1(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Wickywickywheels 33/1, Showed ability at Tipperary on debut but failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts and has since left Andrew Hughes. Makes handicap debut. | |||
12th (9)  (50/1 -79%)Set In Stone |
50/1(-79%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Set In Stone 50/1, Mixed record on the Flat and over hurdles last season and others more convincing. | |||

18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Urban Violet 18/1, Wide-margin winner on testing ground at Sandown on return last season and some decent efforts in defeat after, including when third here. Claims on reappearance. | |||
14th (1)  (28/1 -180%)Myristica |
28/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Myristica 28/1, Ripon scorer in August and good placed efforts in defeat after, though her consistency means she's getting no respite from the handicapper. Off 6 months. | |||
15th (6)  (100/1 -100%)Valorant |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Valorant 100/1, Lightly-raced winner at 2 yrs but tailed off sole start at 3 and offered little on first outing since leaving Roger Charlton after 12 months off at Pontefract 11 days ago. Plenty to prove at present. |

5.5/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Eilean Dubh 5.5/1, Opened his account in 1m handicap at Newcastle in March but turned out quickly when below-par third of 5 at Newmarket 9 days ago. Weighted to go well if shrugging off latest effort. | |||
2nd (6)  (7/1 +13%)Mostawaa |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mostawaa 7/1, Got back on track when second of 9 in 1m handicap at Ascot 11 days ago. Needs considering off an unchanged mark. | |||
3rd (7)  (7.5/1 +46%)Harswell Duke |
7.5/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Harswell Duke 7.5/1, Went backwards from his reappearance when fourth of 5 in 10f handicap at Newcastle 9 days ago. Still low mileage, so he's not written off yet. | |||
4th (4)  (5.5/1 +21%)A Boy Named Ivy |
5.5/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) A Boy Named Ivy 5.5/1, Arrives in good nick, second of 8 in 1m handicap at Ripon 15 days ago when sticking to task well. Ought to be competitive again. | |||
5th (13)  (8.5/1 -6%)Stately Home |
8.5/1(-6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Stately Home 8.5/1, Ex-Irish gelding who gained a first win for his current yard in 1m handicap at Pontefract 33 days ago, overcoming a poor run to score with a bit in hand. Up 6 lb but he remains a player. | |||
6th (8)  (10/1 +38%)Cassy O |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Cassy O 10/1, Off 6 months and had cheekpieces on when last of 9 in 1m handicap at Ripon on his return. Dual 7f winner in 2021 but he has plenty to prove in refitted blinkers. | |||
7th (14)  (16/1 -78%)Eeetee |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Eeetee 16/1, Fair ex-French maiden who came in second of 4 in 7f minor event at Wetherby on yard debut 14 days ago. Goes into handicaps now but others look better treated at these weights. | |||
8th (2)  (9/1 -50%)King Triton |
9/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) King Triton 9/1, Off 8 months and shaped encouragingly when third of 8 in 1m handicap at Ripon 15 days ago. Still low mileage, and he's well worth considering with better to come. | |||
9th (1)  (9/1 -38%)Gweedore |
9/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Gweedore 9/1, Likeable type who resumed with career-best win in 7f handicap (10/1) at Musselburgh 22 days ago. Up 2 lb but he still merits consideration. | |||
10th (11)  (16/1 -60%)Cosmos Raj |
16/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Cosmos Raj 16/1, Reliable sort who regained winning thread in 1m handicap at Ayr 12 days ago. Gutsy sort who can make his presence felt once more. | |||
11th (9)  (7.5/1 +53%)Jump The Gun |
7.5/1(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Jump The Gun 7.5/1, C&D winner but he ended 2021 in just fair form. Needs to hit the ground running after his 6-month absence. | |||
12th (5)  (40/1 -300%)Fiftyshadesofred |
40/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Fiftyshadesofred 40/1, Got off the mark on his first run since leaving Roger Varian in 7f handicap at Newcastle in March. Not taken lightly after his break despite 2 lb rise. | |||
13th (3)  (66/1 -32%)Surprise Picture |
66/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Surprise Picture 66/1, Fairly useful 1m winner in 2021 but he's offered little in 7f/1m handicaps at Redcar this spring. Blinkers go back on now with lots of work to do. |

1st (14)  (9/1 +18%)Candescence |
9/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Candescence 9/1, Has drawn a blank since Pontefract debut success in June 2020 but has recorded 2 good runner-up efforts at Wolverhampton this spring. Another who could be in the shake-up. | |||
2nd (4)  (7.5/1 +38%)Fine Wine |
7.5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Fine Wine 7.5/1, Pair of 5f Southwell wins this spring and has remained in form on turf since, including a 2-length second to the reopposing Rayong at Pontefract. | |||
3rd (15)  (20/1 -67%)The Thin Blue Line |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) The Thin Blue Line 20/1, Third win since December when on top late on in 5f Musselburgh handicap 10 days ago. 5 lb higher in a better race so he will need a career best to follow up. | |||
4th (13)  (8.5/1 +23%)Sound Reason |
8.5/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Sound Reason 8.5/1, Third win when coming through in good style from off the pace to lead late on at Carlisle (5f) last August. Caught too far back and shaped well when second at Beverley 4 weeks later. Much respected on return. | |||
5th (7)  (28/1 -40%)Be Proud |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Be Proud 28/1, Got his head back in front at Newcastle in February. Easily best effort in his 3 outings since when third (Black Friday second) at Ayr last time. This demands a bit more. | |||
6th (9)  (40/1 -150%)Miss Nay Never |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Miss Nay Never 40/1, Left first 2 runs of the year behind to gain fourth career success (all on AW) at Wolverhampton (5f) in March, making all. Effective on turf but this tougher. | |||
7th (5)  (9/1 -80%)Rayong |
9/1(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rayong 9/1, Dropped in the weights after a largely unproductive 2021 and bounced back to form with a bang when seeing off 12 rivals on his 5f Pontefract return 27 days ago. Well on top at the finish on that occasion and still retains plenty of handicapping scope despite a 7 lb rise. Could be the way to go. | |||
8th (1)  (4/1 +50%)Zim Baby |
4/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Zim Baby 4/1, Useful mare who recorded a career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Windsor (6f, good) last month, making all under De Sousa. Respectable fourth in Bath listed race since. Could be handily drawn near the rail. | |||
9th (3)  (7.5/1 +0%)Ava Go Joe |
7.5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ava Go Joe 7.5/1, Has returned an improved performer, winning 5f handicaps at Beverley and Ripon last month, beating reopposing stable-companion Showalong latterly. Likely to remain competitive after further 3 lb rise. | |||
10th (2)  (33/1 -32%)Black Friday |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Black Friday 33/1, Winner in the mud at Pontefract (5f) last autumn. Made a sound return when second of 5 in handicap at Ayr (6f) 13 days ago. | |||
11th (10)  (33/1 -32%)Dave Dexter |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Dave Dexter 33/1, Made all at Southwell (5f) in April but has failed to beat a rival in 2 outings since. Hard to know what mood he'll show up in. | |||
12th (11)  (5/1 +29%)Showalong |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Showalong 5/1, All the better for his reappearance when ½-length second to reopposing stablemate Ava Go Joe at Ripon 15 days ago. Another who can't be discounted. | |||
13th (6)  (16/1 +0%)Call Me Ginger |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Call Me Ginger 16/1, In cracking form early last autumn, completing a hat-trick when seeing off 21 rivals to take Bronze Cup at Ayr. Not seen to best effect on both runs this term and certainly no surprise were he to bounce back to his best here. | |||
14th (8)  (11/1 +8%)Soul Seeker |
11/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Soul Seeker 11/1, C&D winner last summer. Shaped well when runner-up on return at Beverley and went off too hard when fifth at Wetherby since so he's worth treating as if still in good form. Considered. |

1st (2)  (6.5/1 +35%)I'm A Gambler |
6.5/1(+35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) I'm A Gambler 6.5/1, Gained a third 6f nursery win when seeing off 5 rivals here in September, digging deep. Returned with a solid second at Beverley and, although others are less exposed, he should give his all. | |||
2nd (9)  (6/1 +33%)Beluga Gold |
6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Beluga Gold 6/1, Consistent type who didn't need to improve to open his account at Catterick last time. He's vulnerable to less-exposed rivals on handicap debut, though. | |||
3rd (15)  (14/1 -56%)Westmorian |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Westmorian 14/1, Not fully exposed and signed off his juvenile campaign with a good second in a nursery at Newcastle 6 months ago. Should do better still this year, but needs to be fit if he's to make an impact on return. | |||
4th (6)  (6/1 +0%)Lethal Levi |
6/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Lethal Levi 6/1, Scored over C&D last year and took his form up another notch when landing an 8-runner handicap at Yarmouth last month. Cheekpieces fitted now, so expect him to give another good account. | |||
5th (3)  (14/1 -155%)Ballet Steps |
14/1(-155%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ballet Steps 14/1, Dabirsim filly who failed to build on a winning debut last term but made a sparkling reappearance when scoring at Nottingham on return, looking some way ahead of her mark. Needs to back that up. | |||
6th (4)  (1.62/1 +46%)Aasser |
1.62/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Aasser 1.62/1, Progressive on the AW and upped his game to see off a subsequent winner at Lingfield last month. No reason why he won't be as effective on turf, so boasts leading claims. | |||
7th (14)  (25/1 -14%)Captain's Bar |
25/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Captain's Bar 25/1, Haydock 6f maiden winner in 2021. Gelded and shaped encouragingly when fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton on return but failed to back it up at Goodwood 8 days ago. | |||
8th (7)  (9/1 +0%)Alia Choice |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Alia Choice 9/1, Promising individual who opened his account readily at Chelmsford in February, then probably bumped into one when runner-up there last time. Longer trip no issue, and she remains with potential. | |||
9th (10)  (18/1 -13%)Lady Lade |
18/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Lady Lade 18/1, Bagged 5f wins at Carlisle and this course last summer and shaped well on final 2-y-o outing. Ground was probably too testing at Pontefract on return, so could get back on track. | |||
10th (8)  (28/1 -27%)Beltane |
28/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Beltane 28/1, Lightly-raced winner who has work to do from this mark and shaped as if amiss at Wolverhampton on reappearance, so others make more appeal. | |||
11th (12)  (50/1 -100%)St Andrew's Castle |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) St Andrew's Castle 50/1, Went backwards from a positive start last season and, while gelded since last seen 7 months ago, he's hard to recommend. | |||
12th (13)  (33/1 -32%)Claim The Stars |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Claim The Stars 33/1, Fair form at best for Mark Johnston last term but neither outing for current yard has offered much encouragement. |

1st (8)  (9/1 +0%)Haizoom |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Haizoom 9/1, Scored 3 times on the turf last year but was too fresh after 7 months off when down the field over C&D last week. That should've taken the edge off her and it would be no surprise if she's much closer to form here. | |||
2nd (3)  (6/1 +50%)Captain Haddock |
6/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Captain Haddock 6/1, Dual scorer on the turf last year (including over C&D). Unable to quite reach those levels since, his reappearance effort at Doncaster 6 weeks ago no more than respectable. Place claims is probably the best he can hope for. | |||
3rd (2)  (3.33/1 +0%)Emaraty Hero |
3.33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Emaraty Hero 3.33/1, Won his first two starts impressively last season then shaped as if still in form over 2m on both subsequent outings. Satisfactory return to action when a close third in race with not that much pace on at Doncaster just over a fortnight ago and he looks well-handicapped. | |||
4th (15)  (5.5/1 +54%)Alpine Stroll |
5.5/1(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Alpine Stroll 5.5/1, Satisfactory return at Doncaster in March but unable to build on that effort having been well backed at Salisbury 18 days ago. Continues to tumble in the weights without showing much sign of taking advantage. | |||
5th (14)  (33/1 -10%)Wynford |
33/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Wynford 33/1, Enjoyed a fruitful 2021 with 4 wins (including one over hurdles) but having been running no more than respectably over timber this year, he didn't perform any better back on the Flat at Pontefract last month. Back in trip and blinkers applied for first time for this yard. | |||
6th (12)  (40/1 -82%)Grand Canal |
40/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Grand Canal 40/1, Bath scorer last April but seen just once in 2021 after that success a month later. Looked rusty on reappearance at this track a week ago and this outing should reveal what ability remains. | |||
7th (9)  (66/1 +0%)Ebony Maw |
66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Ebony Maw 66/1, Navan maiden winner (10f, soft) back in 2020. Mixed bag in handicaps in Ireland last year and ran no sort of race at Ayr on first outing since leaving Ger Lyons after 10 months off recently. Significantly back up in trip but can only be watched after that effort. | |||
8th (7)  (6/1 +8%)Baileys Derbyday |
6/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Baileys Derbyday 6/1, Hit the crossbar 3 times last year and having shaped as if the run was needed on return, he belatedly opened his account with a bit up his sleeve at Chelmsford (14f) 17 days ago. Still somewhat unexposed as a stayer and should hold his own in this. | |||
9th (11)  (33/1 -106%)Percy Willis |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Percy Willis 33/1, Likeable, reliable type who wasn't ideally placed the way things developed at Doncaster 15 days ago. He's possibly more effective on the all-weather (all 3 wins coming on an artificial surface) but been given a chance by the assessor dropped 3 lb. | |||
10th (6)  (5.5/1 +8%)Uncharted |
5.5/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Uncharted 5.5/1, Irish-raider who produced her best effort to date after 7 months off when runner-up at Navan 15 days ago, well positioned the way the race developed. Not discounted if she can build on that effort here. | |||
11th (13)  (125/1 -150%)Cease And Desist |
125/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Cease And Desist 125/1, Twice-raced for Andre Fabre in France early last year but having been sold very cheaply (5,000 gns), shaped with little promise at Musselburgh back in October. Handicapper taken a stab with a mark of 70 but percentage call is to look elsewhere. | |||
12th (10)  (16/1 -60%)Lord Torranaga |
16/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Lord Torranaga 16/1, Took his record at Southwell to 2-2 just under a fortnight ago, having to be right on his game to fend off a stable-switcher. Nudged up just 2 lb and with conditions no issue, he has to be considered in his current mood. | |||
13th (4)  (7.5/1 +17%)Cloud Thunder |
7.5/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Cloud Thunder 7.5/1, Doubled his career tally when scoring in the mud at Newbury in October. Not quite reached that level on both starts since but with his mark easing a shade and forecast showers no issue, he merits consideration with Silvestre De Sousa booked for the first time. |

1st (11)  (4.5/1 +59%)Heart Of Soul |
4.5/1(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Heart Of Soul 4.5/1, Chester specialist and enjoyed third course win there last term. Another good run on the Roodee on Friday under this rider but this is tougher. | |||
2nd (9)  (14/1 +13%)Howzer Black |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Howzer Black 14/1, Kept on the go since winning at Nottingham in September but hasn't made much of an impact, a fruitless spell in Bahrain followed by 2 mediocre showings back in Britain. Others preferred. | |||
3rd (6)  (6/1 +8%)Happy |
6/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Happy 6/1, Looked a useful handicapper in the making when making all in Beverley minor event last month. Improvement likely back up in trip and a big threat. | |||
4th (12)  (14/1 -17%)Tilsitt |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Tilsitt 14/1, Won 3 times in 2021 and ran well up to his best on return, beaten only a nose at Ayr (1m). Has scored over this trip before and merits consideration. | |||
5th (4)  (33/1 -83%)Geremia |
33/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Geremia 33/1, Progressive sort last term, winning 3 all-weather handicaps between 12f-2m, especially impressing with his strength in the finish over long distances. Not ruled out for new yard despite drop in trip. | |||
6th (13)  (8.5/1 -113%)Life On The Rocks |
8.5/1(-113%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Life On The Rocks 8.5/1, Progressive for Kevin Ryan early last season and has continued upward curve for new yard, responding well to get off the mark at Ayr 13 days ago. More improvement likely to come and of significant interest now fitted with headgear. | |||
7th (14)  (5/1 +55%)Where's Jeff |
5/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Where's Jeff 5/1, Won twice last season under this rider, including at this course, but seemingly went off the boil towards the end of 2021. Looked in need of run on return and mark is edging down, so not fully discounted if closer to form. | |||
8th (7)  (33/1 -83%)Zuraig |
33/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Zuraig 33/1, Developed into a fairly useful performer for Andrew Balding in 2021, ending the year with a couple of in-frame efforts. Hasn't been given a hard time in pair of novice hurdles for new yard but looks to have work to do here. | |||
9th (8)  (8/1 +11%)Magna Moralia |
8/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Magna Moralia 8/1, Suited by emphasis on stamina when producing a career-best to take 9-runner apprentice event at Pontefract on return. Needs to be sharper here but 4 lb rise isn't overwhelming. | |||
10th (2)  (8.5/1 +29%)Bollin Joan |
8.5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bollin Joan 8.5/1, As good as ever when edged out late at Ripon on return and traditionally improves from her reappearance, so rates a player despite 3 lb rise. | |||
11th (15)  (14/1 -27%)Alpine Sierra |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Alpine Sierra 14/1, Twice placed in maidens for Dermot Weld last term and ran to similar level on first 2 outings for new yard this year. Went off too hard last time but has work to do to figure in this grade. | |||
12th (3)  (33/1 -106%)Glasses Up |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Glasses Up 33/1, Won at Musselburgh last term but has failed to beat a rival on either start in 2022, including here (13f) last weekend. Hard to fancy on that evidence. | |||
13th (10)  (14/1 +22%)Mr Carpenter |
14/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Mr Carpenter 14/1, Dual winner at York in 2020 but only made the track twice last season. Remains on a competitive-looking mark if retaining all ability after 12-month absence. | |||
14th (5)  (14/1 +0%)Strawman |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Strawman 14/1, Completed hat-trick between July and August last summer and was unlucky not to land the 4-timer, left with too much to do at Haydock final start. Looked rusty on return and claims if better for that run. |

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.
