9	9 (9) (4/1 +67%) Ramon Di Loria		4 4/1(+67%)																															(9) Ramon Di Loria 4/1, Tased success twice from higher marks in 2023 but was merely ticking over on AW earlier this year. Off 3 months, possible he will be sharper for his fourth of 8 in handicap (40/1) at this course (6f, soft) 14 days ago but others appeal more for win purposes. Returned from break with encouraging fourth here recently and might not be far away.
8	8 (8) (13/2 -30%) Refuge		6.5 13/2(-30%)																															(8) Refuge 13/2, 4-time C&D winner who ran his best race of the present campaign from his sliding mark when respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good to firm) 7 days ago. Worth bearing in mind from his much-reduced mark back at this venue. Back to form at Ripon last week and can build on that now back at his favourite track.
1	4 1st (4) (12/1 +0%) Newyorkstateofmind		12 12/1(+0%)																															(4) Newyorkstateofmind 12/1, Won this race from a 2 lb higher mark last year and, after 5 months off, added to the tally at Wolverhampton (6f) in April. Efforts not so good since though, below form fifth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm) 11 days ago. Won this last year; also on the scoresheet on AW in April; below par on his 3 runs since.
2	11 2nd (11) (20/1 -25%) Cuban Rock		20 20/1(-25%)																															(11) Cuban Rock 20/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. 7/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good) 11 days ago, hanging left over 2f out and dropping away. Significantly back down in trip here and others more persuasive. This drop back to 5f is worth a go but he has a patchy profile and poor strike-rate.
3	2 3rd (2) (12/1 +14%) Dicko The Legend		12 12/1(+14%)																															(2) Dicko The Legend 12/1, Doubled career tally at Chelmsford in December. Changed hands for 6,000 gns and possibly needed yard debut/first start for 4 months when sixth of 9 in handicap at Catterick (6f, soft) 12 days ago. However, still needs to translate his best all-weather form to turf. Two AW wins towards end of last year but has to prove he's just as good on turf.
4	3 4th (3) (7/2 +50%) Sound Reason		3.5 7/2(+50%)																															(3) Sound Reason 7/2, 9/1, respectable fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 6 days ago, ridden 2f out and keeping on final 1f. Not one to write off from this sort of mark with his yard in good form. On a reduced mark and encouraging fourth over C&D last week; in with a chance.
5th	7 5th (7) (6/1 -20%) Aces Wild		6 6/1(-20%)																															(7) Aces Wild 6/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in April. Good second of 9 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f, 4/1) 20 days ago, conceding first run. Clearly in good heart and claims if proving himself as effective on turf. Well beaten on sole turf start but on soft ground; has gone close on AW the last twice.
6th	10 6th (10) (11/1 -214%) Ski Angel		11 11/1(-214%)																															(10) Ski Angel 11/1, C&D winner. 2 wins from 3 runs this year. 7/2, career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good) 11 days ago, leading final 50 yds. Manner of that victory suggests she may yet have more to offer and respected here. Progressive filly who has won two of her last three and could play another leading role.
7th	5 7th (5) (10/1 -67%) Wee Fat Mac		10 10/1(-67%)																															(5) Wee Fat Mac 10/1, Scored twice towards end of last year on AW and continued in good heart since, far from disgraced when third of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (5f) in March. Absent subsequently but he's no forlorn hope if ready to roll after 103 days off. In good form on AW early this year; modest turf strike-rate but possibilities nevertheless.
8th	6 8th (6) (50/1 -257%) Henery Hawk		50 50/1(-257%)																															(6) Henery Hawk 50/1, Back-to-back winner of 5f handicaps at Newcastle earlier this year but not operating at quite the same level on turf in recent weeks, fifth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (5f, good to firm) 21 days ago. Won two in a row on AW early this year but he's 0-12 on grass; has to raise his turf game.
9th	1 9th (1) (9/1 +0%) Borough		9 9/1(+0%)																															(1) Borough 9/1, Registered pair of 5f victories last summer, latterly over C&D in August. Far from disgraced when seventh of 20 in Ayr Bronze Cup (6f) on final start and return to the minimum trip rates a plus on return to action. Won over C&D last August; campaign ended with three below-par runs; makes reappearance.

20:25 Hamilton Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Refuge won this in 2022 and finished runner-up last year to Newyorkstateofmind. The former has the best recent form of that pair, while Ski Angel has won two of her last three outings, but has been raised a further 5lb after scoring at Musselburgh last time. SOUND REASON is 7lb lower than when last successful and he's taken to build on last week's fourth over C&D and return to winning ways.

Successful over C&D last term, SKI ANGEL quickly resumed winning ways in the style of one who may not have reached her limit just yet at Musselburgh 11 days ago and she could be worth siding with to go in again from a 5 lb higher mark. 4-time C&D winner Refuge highlighted he's coming to hand with a creditable fourth at Ripon recently and he's feared. Last year's winner Newyorkstateofmind and Sound Reason complete the shortlist.

Course specialist REFUGE (nap) has posted a win and a close second in the last two runnings of this race and can come out on top.

5	5 (5) (33/1 -32%) Lope De Rueda		33 33/1(-32%)																															(5) Lope De Rueda 33/1, 22/1, last of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm) 33 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Continues to drop down the weights but he's struggled to get competitive in handicaps.
1	4 1st (4) (5/2 +75%) Shahnaz		2.5 5/2(+75%)																															(4) Shahnaz 5/2, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2022. Respectable fifth of 10 to Ledger in handicap at this C&D (good, 5/1) 26 days ago. Can go well again. Beaten on last 15 starts but reappearance was encouraging and she won this in 2022.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/2 -50%) True Nation		4.5 9/2(-50%)																															(8) True Nation 9/2, Career best when winning 8-runner apprentice handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good, 7/1) 7 days ago. Escapes a penalty so she's expected to be bang there. Won apprentice handicap at Nottingham last week; escapes a penalty; strong claims.
3	2 3rd (2) (7/2 +30%) Ledger		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(2) Ledger 7/2, 3 wins from 7 runs this year. 4/1, won 5-runner handicap at this course (9.2f, soft) 14 days ago. Enters calculations in his hat-trick bid despite another 3 lb rise in the weights. Two wins here last month; clearly in good heart and holds solid claims.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 +10%) Jaminoz		9 9/1(+10%)																															(1) Jaminoz 9/1, Course winner. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at this course (11.1f, good to firm, 17/2) 10 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Down in trip. Needs considering. Fair efforts here on last three starts but needs something extra to return to winning ways.
5th	11 5th (11) (40/1 -233%) Dingwall		40 40/1(-233%)																															(11) Dingwall 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 9/2, seventh of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 44 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Uphill task. Down the field on all four starts, but well bred and things may click now he's blinkered.
6th	9 6th (9) (100/1 -614%) Retirement Beckons		100 100/1(-614%)																															(9) Retirement Beckons 100/1, 4-time C&D winner. 7/1, only seventh of 8 to Golden Valour in handicap at Ayr (8f, good) 21 days ago. Given a chance by the handicapper here. Four-time course winner who scored at Newcastle in March but has up-and-down profile.
7th	12 7th (12) (100/1 -733%) Chinese Spirit		100 100/1(-733%)																															(12) Chinese Spirit 100/1, C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good, 11/1) 11 days ago. Now below last winning mark. Second in this race last year; hasn't threatened this season and needs to raise his game.
8th	3 8th (3) (40/1 -471%) Golden Valour		40 40/1(-471%)																															(3) Golden Valour 40/1, Temperamental sort who landed 8-runner handicap at Ayr (8f, good, 8/1) 21 days ago. Needs to back it up now. Ended long losing run at Ayr; he's not straightforward but is not ruled out up just 2lb.
9th	14 9th (14) (80/1 -567%) Miltonia		80 80/1(-567%)																															(14) Miltonia 80/1, 33/1, first run for new yard when solid fourth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 20 days ago, not clear run. Ought to be thereabouts. 0-11 but kept on for encouraging fourth over 7f on stable debut; she's one to consider.
10th	10 10th (10) (100/1 -900%) Vitrina		100 100/1(-900%)																															(10) Vitrina 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifteenth of 18 in minor event at Doncaster (6f, firm, 125/1) 25 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Others more persuasive. Mixed form but she's bred to be considerably better than her lowly opening mark.
11th	7 11th (7) (100/1 -900%) Epona Pas		100 100/1(-900%)																															(7) Epona Pas 100/1, Creditable third of 7 in handicap (25/1) at this C&D (soft) 14 days ago, never nearer. Ought to be in the shake-up. 0-10 but fair third of seven over C&D a fortnight ago and he's not ruled out each-way.
12th	13 12th (13) (100/1 -733%) National Question		100 100/1(-733%)																															(13) National Question 100/1, 80/1, got back on track when second of 9 in handicap at Musselburgh (8f, good) 11 days ago. Needs to reproduce it. Best of the rest behind easy winner at Musselburgh; not discounted.
13th	6 13th (6) (100/1 -300%) Bellslea		100 100/1(-300%)																															(6) Bellslea 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. 200/1, ninth of 10 in novice hurdle at Perth (16.2f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Very hard to make a case for. Makes handicap debut off lowly mark but he's shown little (across both codes).

21:00 Hamilton Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Ledger bids for a hat-trick of course wins having won a fortnight ago and he can effectively race off a lower mark when his rider's claim is taken into account. Both Golden Valour and True Nation were partnered by 7lb claimers when winning at Ayr and Nottingham respectively and face stiffer tasks. EPONA PAS has yet to win, but Jim Goldie's charge finished third in a higher grade over C&D last time and looks set to go close off his current mark.

A few with chances but Richard Fahey's filly TRUE NATION is hard to side against given she escapes a penalty for that Nottingham apprentice success a week ago. Hat-trick seeking Ledger rates the obvious danger, although both Shahnaz and Jaminoz are others who command respect in a competitive handicap.

The Richard Fahey-trained TRUE NATION escapes a penalty for last Wednesday's apprentice handicap win at Nottingham and can follow up.

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.
