13:30 Haydock (Class 2) 11f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

The well-bred Antrim, a close relative of star performer Enable, is entitled to step forward from his fifth at Yarmouth having completely blown the start. Rahiebb makes his turf debut after a couple of starts at Newcastle last month but whether a step up in trip is the right move remains to be seen. Renato is likely to enter the reckoning judged on his runner-up efforts at Kempton and Southwell, but OPPORTUNITY might be the answer. The son of Frankel shaped with a fair amount of promise, despite his relative inexperience, at Nottingham in October and that run should bring him forward considerably.

An interesting novice. OPPORTUNITY shaped with considerable promise in his run last season and William Haggas has him in the Derby.

14:00 Haydock (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Yokohama was given a chance by the handicapper on turf and ran with plenty of credit when second at Newbury a fortnight ago. A 3lb rise is unlikely to stop him from being competitive, while Salamanca City is capable of building on her return third at Wolverhampton. The vote, though, goes to INDIVIDUALISM, who returns following wind surgery and it wouldn't be a huge surprise if the four-year-old had further improvement to come.

The market moves need a close check but it's YOKOHAMA who gets the vote on recent evidence.

14:40 Haydock (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

ENGLISH OAK progressed up the handicap ranks which culminated with an impressive display in the Buckingham Palace at Royal Ascot. The five-year-old's best effort up in class came when runner-up in Listed company at Newbury and, having been gelded at the end of last season, appears to have an excellent opportunity to get back to winning ways. Skukuza was runner-up in the Britannia and makes his first appearance since with strong credentials, while Cerulean Bay and Yorkshire appear best of the remainder.

C&D winner GORAK ran well first time up last season and is on a handy mark, and this front-runner is taken to exploit the rail draw.

15:15 Haydock (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

AFLOAT caught the eye when failing get a clear run at Leicester on her first run for new connections and dropping back in trip looks like a good move for the five-year-old. A mark of 76 seems manageable and she is narrowly preferred to unexposed handicap debutant Roland Garros, as well as Azahara Palace, who ended last season with two solid placed efforts. Hamlet's Night and Live Aid cannot be ruled out either.

Preference is for AFLOAT (nap), who travelled well when she was denied a clear run on her reappearance at Leicester.

15:50 Haydock (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

The Kevin Ryan stable has hit form of late and this looks like an ideal opportunity for BELSITO to regain the winning thread after wind surgery, having ended last year with a pair of creditable runner-up efforts at Redcar. Now in the hands of trainer Phillip Makin after scoring at Bath for previous connections last September, Annie Edson Taylor is a player on her return, along with Safari Dream, who has not been beaten far on the all-weather lately. Others to note include Bear Rock, Roaring Ralph and Roundhay Park.

The in-form Ed Walker saddles ARNAZ, who had a solid campaign last season and is open to further improvement this term.

16:25 Haydock (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Turned out again quickly after a comfortable success on handicap debut at Yarmouth on Tuesday, MAELSTROM sets the standard on form and he looks well capable of following up under a 6lb penalty. A mark of 68 could prove lenient for Lord Capulet on his handicap debut, while Vault Of Heaven ran a career-best when narrowly denied at Newcastle in November and may have more to offer.

This is really all about MAELSTROM providing the quick return from a wide-margin win at Yarmouth on Tuesday doesn't count against him.

16:55 Haydock (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

CAJOLE has to be of interest as she steps up in distance. She missed the break over 7f at Newbury on her introduction, but finished strongly to take fourth and the daughter of Dubawi is taken to build on that promising effort. Silver Chamber is another likely to improve over today's longer trip, having shown some ability over 7f at Newmarket on debut, while Blue Wonder should have more to offer based on a couple of respectable efforts on the all-weather. Bintalina and Althawaqeb are newcomers to note.

By Dubawi and from a prolific Cheveley Park family, CAJOLE is bred to be smart and her Newbury run was seriously eyecatching.

17:25 Haydock (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Placed at Newcastle in February, ROYAL ALLIANCE disappointed over 1m3f last time, but the son of Persian King could make a bold bid dropping back to a mile with cheekpieces applied. Better is expected from Yabher, having struggled at Newmarket on his recent handicap debut and the Haggas charge is preferred to Southwell winner Well Enough, while Tremolo landed a novices race at Southwell in December and Harry Charlton's inmate is another to note in an open contest.

If tapping back into his debut promise and there have been valid excuses since, then YABHER 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.
