Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (1/4 +44%) First Candidate	0.25 1/4(+44%)	(5) First Candidate 1/4, Yard won this last year; travelled, improved on handicap debut just out-battled up the hill by more experienced rival when second beaten a length in a handicap hurdle at Kelso latest; effective at 2m, acts with cut; still a bit to come and sets the standard. Point winner; runner-up in big field on handicap debut at Kelso and has leading claims.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/1 +9%) Atlantic City	5 5/1(+9%)	(1) Atlantic City 5/1, Ran ok here despite being keen when fourth beaten 48l in a maiden hurdle at Tramore latest; effective 2m, acts on heavy, good; consistent over hurdles in short career, threat on stable debut. 0-9 in Ireland but has shown ability and makes British debut with new trainer in fine form.
3	6 3rd (6) (20/1 -67%) Flash Bardot	20 20/1(-67%)	(6) Flash Bardot 20/1, Didn't stay having been too keen beaten 9l in a handicap at Nottingham last time; trainer in form; multiple Flat winner over middle distances; can make an impact over hurdles but could do with some rain. Useful on the Flat in 2024 but form went wrong way last year; changed hands for 10,000gns.
4	4 4th (4) (18/1 -64%) Dolly Drama	18 18/1(-64%)	(4) Dolly Drama 18/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 11l in an Amateurs' bumper at Newcastle latest; effective 2m, acts on soft, good to soft; bumper form boosted, more to come over hurdles, likely to get further in time. Made the frame in both bumpers and she could have an each-way chance on hurdle debut.
5th	8 5th (8) (200/1 -100%) Rose Light	200 200/1(-100%)	(8) Rose Light 200/1, Never threatened down the field in a novice hurdle at Stratford most recent; middle distance Flat winner; hard to fancy. Very modest on the Flat nowadays and tailed off last month on her first two hurdle starts.

Point runner-up who makes rules debut with Harry Cobden booked; betting may be informative.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (250/1 -67%) Pink Walls	250 250/1(-67%)	(7) Pink Walls 250/1, Stamina unproven beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap at Wolverhampton last time; absent for very lengthy period; poor on the Flat; all to do on hurdle debut. 0-9 on the Flat and achieved very little; makes hurdle/stable debut after a long absence.

13:37 Haydock (Class 4) 15f Race Class Flow

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

FIRST CANDIDATE arrives here on the back of two narrow seconds in recent months at Ludlow and Kelso. This does not appear to be as strong as those contests and it would be no surprise to see Dan Skelton's mare go one better as a result. Any market support for Cappa Lass on her Rules debut would have to be noted, while Atlantic City completes the shortlist.

This looks a good opportunity for point winner FIRST CANDIDATE to get off the mark under rules. Atlantic City is the danger.

1	5 1st (5) (4/1 +0%) Dance And Glance	4 4/1(+0%)	(5) Dance And Glance 4/1, Made too much use of on unsuitable testing ground comfortably held in William Hill Handicap Hurdle at Newbury last time; off a short-break; suited by 2m on sound surface; in form until latest, mark still fair. Improved form this term and can be excused latest run in the gruelling William Hill Hurdle.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 -13%) We're Red And Blue	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(3) We're Red And Blue 9/2, Ran to form just tiring late up the hill having done plenty early 4 1/4l third in a handicap hurdle at Sandown most recent run; effective 2m, acts on soft, good; in good form, remains on fair mark on novice form. Good form continued when third in the Imperial Cup at Sandown and he holds solid claims.
3	2 3rd (2) (14/1 -65%) Bucephalus	14 14/1(-65%)	(2) Bucephalus 14/1, Went clear, returned to form back on better ground landing a handicap by 6l off a 5lb lower mark at Newcastle last time; enjoys making it; effective 2m, acts on heavy, good; back in form latest, on stiff enough mark. Career-high mark but has run really well (including over C&D) on two of last three starts.
4	9 4th (9) (17/2 +47%) Frontier Prince	8.5 17/2(+47%)	(9) Frontier Prince 17/2, Too much to do ridden to see out the trip 14l third in a handicap hurdle at Kelso most recent run; tongue-tie first time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good; in fair form and should run his race once again. Needs to better his winter form but perhaps this 5yo will be aided by the tongue-tie.
5th	6 5th (6) (11/1 +21%) Smart Decision	11 11/1(+21%)	(6) Smart Decision 11/1, Did plenty early when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Hexham last time; cheekpieces first time; enjoys making it; effective at 2m-2m2f, acts on soft, good; mark high enough. Went close over C&D in January; possible excuses on last two starts; cheekpieces go on.
6th	4 6th (4) (9/1 -38%) Mr Mcloughlan	9 9/1(-38%)	(4) Mr Mcloughlan 9/1, Outpaced, too much to do, beaten by unexposed rival 5 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle at Stratford most recent run; trainer in form; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; quirky but shown plenty of ability and progressing. Third behind two unexposed rivals at Stratford; strong pace should see him to good effect.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/1 +30%) Williethebuilder	7 7/1(+30%)	(1) Williethebuilder 7/1, Scored by 2 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Kempton three starts back; effective 2m, may not get further, acts on decent ground; back in form, recent efforts franked, wants decent pace to aim at. Improved this winter; soft ground may not have suited at Cheltenham; might not be far away.
8th	7 8th (7) (11/1 +8%) Marche D'aligre	11 11/1(+8%)	(7) Marche D'aligre 11/1, Bit too free following wind op 24l third in a handicap hurdle at Newbury most recent run; second run after wind op; effective 2m, acts on soft, good to soft; inconsistent. Step back in right direction at Newbury in February but very much needs to build on it.
9th	8 9th (8) (10/3 +39%) Ice In The Veins	3.333333 10/3(+39%)	(8) Ice In The Veins 10/3, Returned to form but didn't look the easiest ride when fourth beaten 16l in a handicap hurdle at Ludlow latest; effective 2m-2m4f, suited by decent ground; dual novice winner could bounce back on quicker ground. Pulled hard when no threat in first two handicaps; could yet be capable of much better.
10th	12 10th (12) (33/1 -50%) Inedit D'amour	33 33/1(-50%)	(12) Inedit D'amour 33/1, Didn't find much when fourth beaten 27l in a handicap hurdle at Newcastle latest; blinkers first time; effective at 2m1f, acts on soft and good; fair mark on French form but inconsistent for new yard. Easily won maiden hurdle at Catterick in January but soundly beaten in two handicaps since.

Very lightly raced 4yo who could be suited by the big-field scenario; retains potential.

14:12 Haydock (Class 2) 15f Race Class Flow

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

WE'RE RED AND BLUE arguably put in a career best when filling third place in the Imperial Cup at Sandown a month ago and a 2lb rise may not be enough to stop him from scoring in this company. Williethebuilder beat the selection at Kempton in January but his two subsequent efforts suggest that he may struggle to confirm that form. With that in mind, the William Hill Hurdle fifth Dance And Glance may be a bigger threat on this occasion.

The Dan Skelton-trained ICE IN THE VEINS could be capable of considerably better and earns the vote ahead of the 5yo Tashan.

1	5 1st (5) (9/2 +40%) Walden	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(5) Walden 9/2, Did it cosily and improved up in trip landing a handicap by 6 1/2l off a 8lb lower mark at Ascot last time; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on soft and good; form franked, progressive and unexposed at 3m. 2-3 in handicaps; stylish when taking 18-runner race at Ascot (2m7f, good to soft) latest.

Raised 7lb but it's easy to think he has significantly more to give after his Wetherby win.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +10%) Secret Trix	9 9/1(+10%)	(8) Secret Trix 9/1, Too much to do behind all the way winner but returned to form back up in trip beaten 2l off this mark at Market Rasen last time; off a short-break; wants 3m, acts on soft and good; needs to build on latest revival.

Raised another 6lb and in grade after a convincing C&D win but she's progressing well.

Won two starts back; a return to form looks possible for in-form yard; place hopes.
7th	9 7th (9) (6/1 +57%) I Am Max	6 6/1(+57%)	(9) I Am Max 6/1, Ran to form just flattening out late up in trip when second beaten 7l in a handicap hurdle at Doncaster latest; effective 2 1/2m, just about gets 3m; consistent but may struggle to reverse form with last time out conqueror. Second to Jakar Du Moulin when returned to hurdling at Doncaster (3m); stable in good form.
8th	1 8th (1) (20/1 -67%) Super Survivor	20 20/1(-67%)	(1) Super Survivor 20/1, Improved again, well placed at sharp track when landing a handicap by 3l off a 4lb lower mark at Warwick last time; C&D winner; effective up to 3m1f, acts on heavy and good to soft; back in form, revised mark demands more. C&D win in December; battled back for a clearcut win at Warwick (3m2f) on latest outing.

Never better when placed under Cameron Johnstone-Baker last three runs; needs a bit extra.

14:46 Haydock (Class 2) 24f Race Class Flow

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

In a wide-open event, marginal preference is for JAKAR DU MOULIN. Paul Nicholls' gelding had plenty in hand when scoring at Doncaster a few weeks ago and an 8lb rise may still underestimate this progressive seven-year-old. Blue Carpet also won well on his most recent outing and merits a place high up on the shortlist. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but Walden is the pick of them.

Heather Honey is respected after her C&D win but may prove vulnerable to further improvement from BLUE CARPET and Walden.

Rejuvenated 10yo who has won two of his last three and is firmly in calculations.

15:20 Haydock (Class 2) 19f Race Class Flow

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

The two runnings of this race have seen Numitor successful in 2024 and The Flier Begley last year. Both are back for another try but racing off higher marks and neither can be discounted, but GUARD YOUR DREAMS gets the nod. Brought down at the first at Cheltenham in March, he won his previous start at Warwick very easily and with the Twiston-Davies yard a dab hand with their veteran chasers, the 10-year-old could win for the third time over fences.

Having impressed at Warwick in February on his sole outing under Toby McCain-Mitchell, GUARD YOUR DREAMS (nap) is the pick.

Catterick win in February; poor run since but good shout if putting best foot forward.
3	7 3rd (7) (9/2 +78%) Royal Deeside	4.5 9/2(+78%)	(7) Royal Deeside 9/2, Ran to form, made bit too much use of 17l third in a handicap chase at Carlisle most recent run; that strong form; effective 2-2 1/2m, suited by sound surface; in good form over fences. Two Hexham wins this season; back in form when third latest but isn't the most consistent.

Well held in two hurdles runs for new yard and well beaten in previous outing over fences.

15:55 Haydock (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

I Shut That D'or won three of his last five starts over fences before having an off day when fifth at Stratford, but he has been absent for over a year now and may have to settle for a place at best. COUNT ADHEMAR has only had three starts over fences, finishing second in the last two over shorter, but there is enough stamina in his pedigree to think this trip can bring about the improvement needed. He could get the better of Wincanton second Bonza Boy.

Bonza Boy looks solid, while Imperial Bede will go well if back to his Catterick form, but the vote goes to COUNT ADHEMAR.

Runner-up off this mark over fences in February; not ruled out now back over hurdles.
7th	3 7th (3) (14/1 -115%) Springtime Legend	14 14/1(-115%)	(3) Springtime Legend 14/1, Scored by 7 1/2l off a 8lb lower mark at Hereford penultimate start; trainer in form; effective over 2m5f-3m, probably ideally suited by plenty of give, acts on good to soft; progressing over hurdles, unexposed as a stayer.

16:30 Haydock (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

BROOKSIDE LA scored on his handicap bow at Wetherby on Boxing Day before running with plenty of credit when finishing third here the following month. He missed an engagement at Kelso a fortnight ago when well fancied and compensation may await on this occasion. Big Storm Brewing seeks a hat-trick after winning at Newcastle and Musselburgh, while Largy Go is expected to improve stepping up in trip.

Preference is for BROOKSIDE LA, who kept on galloping when third of 17 in a 2m5f handicap here in January. Largy Go is feared.

1	4 1st (4) (13/2 -30%) Major Fortune	6.5 13/2(-30%)	(4) Major Fortune 13/2, Scored by 3l off a 5lb lower mark at Wincanton three starts back; travelled but out-battled up the hill, ran to form second beaten 4 1/4l off 122 last time, same mark here; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts on any; back in form. Prolific hurdles winner, just as good over fences; second at Leicester latest; big player.
2	12 2nd (12) (12/1 +0%) My Bobby Dazzler	12 12/1(+0%)	(12) My Bobby Dazzler 12/1, Improved landing a handicap by 6 1/2l off a 5lb lower mark at Hereford last time; effective 3m, acts on soft, good; back in form, well treated on old form but does have some enthusiasm concerns. Put everything together when winning at Hereford; up 5lb and in a stronger race.
3	6 3rd (6) (13/2 +13%) Jacks Parrot	6.5 13/2(+13%)	(6) Jacks Parrot 13/2, Yard has won last two runnings of race; ran to form just tiring late up in trip on quick return, race may have come a bit toon when fourth beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap chase at Bangor-on-Dee latest; effective 3m, suited by cut; in form. Fourth over C&D in December and creditable runs since; however, more required to win.
4	9 4th (9) (4/1 +53%) Ski Lodge	4 4/1(+53%)	(9) Ski Lodge 4/1, Travelled well but didn't stay when fourth beaten 19l in a handicap chase at Wetherby latest; cheekpieces first time; trainer in form; effective 2 1/2-3m, acts with cut; generally in good form over fences but likely wants drop back in trip. Bit disappointing last time but cheekpieces and a return to Haydock could see a revival.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 -11%) Saladins Son	5 5/1(-11%)	(3) Saladins Son 5/1, Ran to form beaten 2 1/2l off this mark at Wincanton last time; stays 3m1f, acts on heavy, good to soft; in form and should remain competitive. Running well this term, including over C&D; hard to knock and should be thereabouts again.
6th	10 6th (10) (9/2 +40%) Solar System	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(10) Solar System 9/2, Outpaced, too much to do, ran to form on chase debut beaten 3l off a 1lb higher mark at Southwell last time; cheekpieces first time; usually held up; effective 2 1/2-3m; likely has more to offer over staying trips over fences. 4-14 over hurdles; pleasing start over fences and solid claims if building on that run.
7th	7 7th (7) (12/1 -100%) If Not For Dylan	12 12/1(-100%)	(7) If Not For Dylan 12/1, Improved back on better ground under positive ride landing a handicap by 4 1/2l off a 6lb lower mark at Doncaster last time; enjoys making it; suited by marathon trips, acts on soft, good; generally consistent. Veteran who retains enthusiasm; jumped well and made all at Doncaster; back up 6lb.
8th	11 8th (11) (16/1 -14%) Cerendipity	16 16/1(-14%)	(11) Cerendipity 16/1, Never threatened down the field in a handicap chase at Carlisle most recent; tongue-tie first time; effective around 2m4f, acts on soft, good to soft; must bounce back after couple of below par efforts. 9lb lower than for last win but has been struggling; cheekpieces off, tongue-strap on.
9th	8 9th (8) (11/1 +21%) Jupiter Des Bordes	11 11/1(+21%)	(8) Jupiter Des Bordes 11/1, Disappointing back up in trip when comfortably held in a handicap chase at Warwick last time; effective 2m4f-3m, acts on soft, good; handicapper in charge. Ran well over 3m4f here in December but well below par last time and others appeal more.
2	2 \|F\| (2) (50/1 -100%) Fortunedefortunata	50 50/1(-100%)	(2) Fortunedefortunata 50/1, Pulled up in Handicap Chase at Punchestown latest where never jumped or travelled; suited by 3m+ with cut; former Listed winner but below par so far this term and plenty to prove starting out for new yard. Badly out of form in the last 12 months and needs to be revitalised by a change of stables.

17:05 Haydock (Class 3) 25f Race Class Flow

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

LAGANHILL was tried in cheekpieces for the first time when runner-up at Exeter in February and the extra couple of furlongs appear likely to bring about improvement from Henry Daly's gelding. Saladins Son hasn't been disgraced in three outings this season and should be involved at the business end. Major Fortune, Jacks Parrot and Solar System appeal most of the remainder.

After an encouraging first run over fences at Southwell, SOLAR SYSTEM looks ready to strike. The main danger could be Saladins Son.

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.
