|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (11/8 +39%)Buckna |
11/8(+39%) | (1) Buckna 11/8, Improved from debut when landing a handicap by 2l off a 3lb lower mark here last time. The trainer is in form and he's effective between 2½m and 3m. Still progressing and remains unexposed at 3m. Got his act together and was a game C&D winner last month, his second chase. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (66/1 -633%)Ithaka |
66/1(-633%) | (6) Ithaka 66/1, Made mistakes and was outpaced, needing the run when 58l third in a handicap chase at Market Rasen most recently. Effective at 3m and suited by decent ground but has yet to take to chasing. Dual hurdle winner last season but lacked fluency and safely held in a chase this month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (9/1 +55%)Moonlit Potter |
9/1(+55%) | (5) Moonlit Potter 9/1, Ran to form, just tiring late on when back from a layoff and finishing fourth beaten 15l in a handicap chase at Southwell last time. Cheekpieces are applied for the first time and she's effective at 3m. Showed signs of revival latest and could build on it. Lost her way last season but positives can be drawn from last month's stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (9/1 -50%)Nambiti |
9/1(-50%) | (3) Nambiti 9/1, Suited by the longer trip and well handicapped on French form. Ran to form when second, beaten 11l in a handicap chase at Wetherby last time. Absent for a very lengthy period but effective at 2½m and on ground with cut. Absent since second of five at Wetherby (2m3f) in March 2024; market may guide. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (4) (11/2 +21%)Law Of Supply |
11/2(+21%) | (4) Law Of Supply 11/2, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 6½l in a handicap chase here last time. Effective at 3m and now back on his last winning mark. Needs to build on his recent revival. Rebounded from poor seasonal debut with close fourth behind Buckna over C&D last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (6/1 -100%)Holeshot |
6/1(-100%) | (2) Holeshot 6/1, Fell in a handicap chase at Taunton last time when looked a huge threat. Effective between 2m and 2½m and acts on good to soft and good ground. Well treated on hurdle form and should go close. In contention before falling at Taunton last time; still unexposed over fences/as a stayer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (7/2 +30%)Stellar Stream |
7/2(+30%) | (7) Stellar Stream 7/2, Ran to current form when beaten 2l off a 1lb lower mark at Ffos Las last time. Effective over 3m and further, and handles ground with cut. Appears to be regressing. Ran well when third at Ffos Las last month but is far to inconsistent to rely upon heavily. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Nambiti hasn't been seen since finishing second at Wetherby in March 2024, but he gets to race off 5lb lower now before his jockey's claim and is worth a market check. BUCKNA was a gutsy C&D winner last month on just his second start over fences and won't go down without a fight despite an additional 3lb. Ithaka is another to consider and he might collect some minor money.

The most obvious answer is BUCKNA, who scored over C&D last month and remains lightly raced over fences.

1st (7) (16/1 +76%)Man Up Front |
16/1(+76%) | (7) Man Up Front 16/1, Showed improvement from debut when fourth, beaten 31l in a novice hurdle here last time; effective over 2 1/2m but may need more time to progress. Soundly beaten in two novice hurdles this autumn (2m4f/2m3f); drops back in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (6/5 +60%)King Of Records |
6/5(+60%) | (5) King Of Records 6/5, Bit free and green under pressure but ran to form when second, beaten 6l in a maiden hurdle at Chepstow last time; effective at 2m and on soft or good ground; steadily progressing and likely to feature in handicaps. Absent since second at Chepstow but will be on the premises if in similar form here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (125/1 -346%)Lipstick |
125/1(-346%) | (6) Lipstick 125/1, Outpaced on modest debut when well beaten in a Chepstow bumper on sole start; difficult to recommend at this stage. Made low-key debut when eighth of 11 in soft-ground Chepstow bumper last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (10/3 +39%)Ufouria |
10/3(+39%) | (14) Ufouria 10/3, Below form when fourth, beaten 42l in an auction hurdle at Wexford last time; returns from long layoff with tongue-tie applied first time; effective over 2m on yielding to soft or good ground; Irish bumper winner whose hurdles form has been franked; market should guide on stable debut. Fair form when fourth at Wexford in March; big player if on song for seasonal/stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (66/1 -200%)Garavogue |
66/1(-200%) | (4) Garavogue 66/1, Sageburg gelding; half-brother to Drop Out Joe, very useful at 25f; hood first time; may just need this experience. Has interesting pedigree but wears a hood on debut and is entitled to learn from this run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (10/3 +63%)Twistthenightaway |
10/3(+63%) | (13) Twistthenightaway 10/3, Ran to form when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Warwick last time; had been in good form previously; effective at 2m to 2 1/2m on good to soft or good ground; likely one for handicaps. Launched hurdling career with two encouraging runs; needs to improve but has potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (12) (9/1 +73%)Celtic Queen |
9/1(+73%) | (12) Celtic Queen 9/1, Outpaced on modest debut when fourth, beaten 20l in a novice hurdle at Plumpton last time; second run after wind operation; usually held up; effective at 2m but inconsistent and with questions to answer over hurdles. Placed in two bumpers; kept on steadily from the rear for fourth on recent hurdle debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (1) (22/1 +67%)Alfa Charlie |
22/1(+67%) | (1) Alfa Charlie 22/1, Made mistakes and was outpaced when well beaten in a novice hurdle at Fontwell last time; trainer in form; effective over 2m but needs to leave previous form behind. Tailed off in Irish bumper in January and struggled when hurdling for new yard last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (150/1 -127%)Triple Haych |
150/1(-127%) | (11) Triple Haych 150/1, Pulled up in a conditions race at Garthorpe last time; placed in a point previously but faces a stiff task here. Maiden pointer who makes very limited appeal on rules debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (40/1 +60%)Raging Al |
40/1(+60%) | (9) Raging Al 40/1, Green and never threatened when well beaten in a novice hurdle here last time; effective from 10-12f on good to soft or good to firm; has plenty to prove over hurdles. Unseated rider on hurdle debut and safely held over C&D since; needs to learn to settle. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (10) (33/1 -18%)Run Away Joe |
33/1(-18%) | (10) Run Away Joe 33/1, Outpaced and below debut form when down the field in a novice hurdle at Taunton most recently; effective over 2m and may do better, though could want further in time. Showed clear promise before unseating on hurdle debut but never competitive last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (200/1 -203%)Big Lou |
200/1(-203%) | (2) Big Lou 200/1, Still green and hung badly when disappointing up in trip on handicap debut, well beaten in a Chepstow handicap last time; absent for a long spell and has plenty to find. Well beaten on Flat handicap debut for Archie Watson in May 2024; not seen since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

KING OF RECORDS arrives with the best form after placing on his last two starts over hurdles and, if he's raring to go on his first start since April, then jockey Ned Fox's 5lb claim may make all the difference. Ufouria has some good form in Ireland with a bumper win at Cork the highlight and she might go close on her first start for Alastair Ralph, while Garavogue is a newcomer to consider.

The 7yo mare UFOURIA makes her stable debut after a 260-day absence but has strong claims if judged on her Wexford fourth in March.

1st (10) (11/2 -38%)Glengolly |
11/2(-38%) | (10) Glengolly 11/2, Below form following a wind operation when fourth beaten 20l in a handicap hurdle at Ffos Las last time; second run after the procedure; effective from 2m4f to 2m7f on soft and good to soft ground but needs improvement. 14-race maiden now exposed in handicaps over a range of trips; the tongue-tie is new. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (11/1 -10%)Woodythewoodpecker |
11/1(-10%) | (1) Woodythewoodpecker 11/1, Outpaced and never threatened when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Leicester last time; effective from 2m4f to 2m6f and acts on soft and good ground; currently in moderate form. Breeding offers hope for him staying this far and he could post his best form yet. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (5/1 +75%)Call Your Bluff |
5/1(+75%) | (9) Call Your Bluff 5/1, Found little when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wincanton last time; trainer in form and looks a strong stayer over hurdles, though has been inconsistent in a short career. Has finished tailed off in 2m5f/2m4f handicaps in his two runs for Emma Lavelle. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (14/1 -40%)Bredon Hill Dart |
14/1(-40%) | (5) Bredon Hill Dart 14/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fontwell last time; effective from 2½m to 3m; progressive in the spring but has a bit to prove following his reappearance. Has won a handicap over 3m2f but he's looking a hard horse to predict. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (4/1 +43%)Shorten Sassy |
4/1(+43%) | (6) Shorten Sassy 4/1, Made mistakes and needed the run when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle here last time; effective over 3m and should come on for that latest outing. Low mileage but beaten 10l and 27l in her two handicaps at about this distance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (7/1 -17%)Johnny Boy |
7/1(-17%) | (2) Johnny Boy 7/1, Outpaced and made a poor handicap debut when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time; yet to find suitable conditions over hurdles and needs more handicapping experience. Lightly raced 6yo who was a weak 12-1 chance on handicap debut and ended up tailed off. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (4/1 -14%)Flash In The Pan |
4/1(-14%) | (4) Flash In The Pan 4/1, Scored by 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark here three starts back; found the ground too soft when seventh beaten 22l off 95 last time; effective up to 3m2f on good ground and had been in form until latest run. First and third over C&D on good ground; below par on soft around Warwick latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (80/1 -100%)After Midnight |
80/1(-100%) | (11) After Midnight 80/1, Another poor handicap run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Ludlow last time; effective around 2½m but has yet to show any worthwhile form. Has no obvious form claims and has contested two handicaps; unraced beyond 2m5f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (9/1 -13%)Pooley's Promise |
9/1(-13%) | (8) Pooley's Promise 9/1, Outpaced and below form when dropped in trip on easier ground, comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Leicester last time; suited by 3m on good ground and appears to have found a fair mark, longer trip a plus. Improved for 3m on good ground earlier in year; it was soft and back over 2m4f last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (14/1 -17%)Locked On |
14/1(-17%) | (7) Locked On 14/1, Outpaced and outclassed when needing the run, comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Kempton last time; effective at around 2½m but has it all to prove starting out in handicaps. He could improve for this longer trip on handicap debut; market helpful. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (16/1 -33%)Neptune House |
16/1(-33%) | (3) Neptune House 16/1, Went clear but made too much use of himself when running to form and comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Leicester last time; effective at around 2½m on good ground and may do better in handicaps. Insufficient promise in his qualifying runs to believe he'll be the answer on h'cap debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Stamina will be at a premium over this trip and that seems to point the way of FLASH IN THE PAN, a C&D winner in October who has finished third here since. Bredon Hill Dart is capable on his day but rarely runs two races the same, scoring at Newton Abbot in June but pulling up at Fontwell recently, but he may still prove a bigger danger than Glengolly.

This looks very difficult. Marginal preference is for WOODYTHEWOODPECKER who may improve for this longer trip.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (14) (17/2 +6%)No Guarantee |
17/2(+6%) | (14) No Guarantee 17/2, Needed every yard when dropped in trip and improved to win a claiming hurdle at Ludlow by a neck last time. Effective around 2m2f; not one to rely on reproducing that in a handicap. Caused 33-1 shock in recent claimer but it's tricky to gauge what that form is worth. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (8/1 +11%)Chevington |
8/1(+11%) | (2) Chevington 8/1, Benefited from positive tactics and improved on recent form when second, beaten 2 1/2l, in a novice hurdle at Ludlow last time. Absent for a long spell but effective at 2m on soft or good ground; fair opening mark and should be competitive. Absent since Ludlow novice second in spring 2024; market helpful on handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (8/1 +11%)East End Girl |
8/1(+11%) | (5) East End Girl 8/1, Ran below par and probably needed the run when comfortably held in a Ludlow handicap hurdle last time. Effective at 2m on soft or good ground and generally consistent over hurdles. C&D winner in 2023 and ran well to a point last month, after a long layoff; shortlisted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (10/3 +49%)Inion Tiogair |
10/3(+49%) | (12) Inion Tiogair 10/3, Race may have come too soon when comfortably held in a Ludlow handicap hurdle last time. In good form beforehand; effective at 2m on heavy or good to soft ground. A longstanding maiden over hurdles but back in form. Spoiled chance by racing too freely last time; runner-up on previous two outings. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (16/1 -60%)Times A Wastin |
16/1(-60%) | (1) Times A Wastin 16/1, Stopped quickly when stepped up in trip and was well beaten in a Market Rasen handicap hurdle last time; effective from 2m to 3m. Showed useful form in Ireland but yet to reproduce that for this yard. Left Fergal O'Brien after two disappointing runs and would appeal more on better ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (16) (66/1 -32%)Now Then Wendy |
66/1(-32%) | (16) Now Then Wendy 66/1, Outpaced and ran poorly when well beaten in a Ludlow handicap hurdle last time. Tongue-tie applied for the first time; effective at 2m on good ground but has something to prove. Ran okay on handicap debut in March but well beaten twice since; tongue-tie added. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (13) (10/3 +87%)Famoso |
10/3(+87%) | (13) Famoso 10/3, Outpaced and never threatened when well held in a Taunton handicap chase last time; that was likely a prep run over fences. Six-time chase winner; on tempting hurdle mark but has been out of form this autumn. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (25/1 -150%)New Invention |
25/1(-150%) | (4) New Invention 25/1, Pulled up in a novice hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time. This is his second run since a wind operation; handles good ground and may want a bit further than 2m in time. Well beaten on both starts this autumn but remains open to improvement in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (10) (13/2 -44%)Ten Ten Twenty |
13/2(-44%) | (10) Ten Ten Twenty 13/2, Ran to form when beaten 1 1/4l off a 39lb lower mark at Wolverhampton last time; a consistent performer in both codes who can get involved. Dual hurdle winner in summer 2024; reverts to this code after AW third last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (8) (80/1 -142%)Ezmerellda |
80/1(-142%) | (8) Ezmerellda 80/1, Outpaced and jumped poorly when fourth, beaten 63l, in a Haydock handicap hurdle last time. Returning from a long absence; effective from 2m to 2 1/4m on soft or good ground but out of form. Became disappointing for Alan King and was tailed off on stable debut in March. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (14/1 -100%)Daany |
14/1(-100%) | (6) Daany 14/1, Ran to form when beaten 5 1/4l in a Bath handicap last time after a short break. A progressive hurdler who acts on any surface and is effective around 1m on the Flat. Won three hurdles in summer 2024 but this year's Flat form is underwhelming. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (16/1 +27%)Make Sunshine |
16/1(+27%) | (11) Make Sunshine 16/1, Fell in a handicap hurdle at Lingfield last time. Effective around 2m4f on good ground; inconsistent but on a fair mark based on maiden form. 0-9 over hurdles after recent fall but ran well when third here (2m3f) in March. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (15) (22/1 +33%)Kotgar |
22/1(+33%) | (15) Kotgar 22/1, Too free and well beaten in a Warwick handicap hurdle last time. Effective at 2m but currently out of form. Tailed off after racing too freely last time and now 0-7 over hurdles. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (28/1 -180%)Regal Cavalier |
28/1(-180%) | (3) Regal Cavalier 28/1, Still green and ran poorly when fourth, beaten 15l, in a maiden hurdle at Worcester last time. Effective at 2m on good to soft; a French Flat winner who may do better in handicaps. Second at huge odds in April but makes handicap debut after seven-month absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (28/1 -133%)Jack The Boss |
28/1(-133%) | (7) Jack The Boss 28/1, Outpaced and never threatened when comfortably held in a novice hurdle at Sedgefield last time. Effective at 2m on good ground but has something to prove. Form of last season's win is not worth much; improvement needed on this handicap debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

TEN TEN TWENTY is race-fit from running on the Flat and it was a solid effort in defeat at Wolverhampton last month. Back over hurdles for this assignment and given he was progressive in this sphere in the summer of 2024, the seven-year-old looks poised to strike. Bluenose Belle was in good form earlier in the year and a recent comeback run at Ludlow will have blown the cobwebs away. She is noted along with Chevington.

After returning from a long layoff with a satisfactory run last month, EAST END GIRL may record her second C&D win.

1st (1) (9/1 +10%)Lady Balko |
9/1(+10%) | (1) Lady Balko 9/1, Won this race last year but was pulled up in a handicap chase at Cheltenham last time. Effective at around 3m and handles soft and good to soft ground, though her form has dipped and she looks on a stiff mark. Lost her way after winning this race in 2024 but no surprise if she bounces back to form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (9/1 -13%)Malaita |
9/1(-13%) | (7) Malaita 9/1, Ran to form when beaten 2l off this mark at Hexham last time. Likes to make the running and is effective around 2m4f on decent ground. Has a solid chance again. Back in good form on last two outings; still on workable mark; unexposed over 3m+. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (14/1 +30%)Lagonda |
14/1(+30%) | (8) Lagonda 14/1, Had every chance but was below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time. Cheekpieces go on for the first time. Effective over 3m and handles soft and good to soft ground, though unlikely to get an uncontested lead. Second in this last year; can be dangerous if she responds well to new cheekpieces. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (4/1 +38%)Kosasiempre |
4/1(+38%) | (9) Kosasiempre 4/1, Returned to form when winning a handicap here by 3l off a 4lb lower mark last time. Usually ridden patiently and effective from 2 3/4m to 3m. Faces a tougher task from a higher mark but remains of interest. C&D winner last month; this race is stronger but a 4lb rise does not look excessive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (5/1 -43%)Theonewedreamof |
5/1(-43%) | (6) Theonewedreamof 5/1, Won by 2 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark at Exeter two runs ago and then ran to form when second, beaten 1/2l off 117 last time. Effective between 2m3f and 3m and in fine form for her new stable. Close second in 15-runner Cheltenham handicap a week ago; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (11) (22/1 -57%)Flowing Cadenza |
22/1(-57%) | (11) Flowing Cadenza 22/1, Refused in a handicap chase at Ludlow last time. Effective around 3m and handles soft ground, but has a long absence to overcome and must show her ability remains intact. Won this in 2022 but very lightly raced in recent years; current ability hard to gauge. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (11/2 +45%)Followango |
11/2(+45%) | (10) Followango 11/2, Ran to form when second, beaten 6l, in a handicap hurdle at Ffos Las last time. Effective between 2 1/2m and 3m and generally consistent from a fair mark. Runner-up all three starts this season (once over C&D) but others appeal more all the same. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (3) (7/2 +65%)Holloway Queen |
7/2(+65%) | (3) Holloway Queen 7/2, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last time. Listed winner over hurdles; dangerous mark starting out over fences; very interesting. Listed hurdle winner last winter; badly out of sorts on last two starts; chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (12/1 -20%)Musique De Fee |
12/1(-20%) | (4) Musique De Fee 12/1, Won a handicap hurdle by a nose off a 4lb lower mark at Cartmel on her penultimate start. Likes to race prominently and, following a short break, should improve for her chase debut. Effective from 2m4f to 3m2f on good ground, with the longer trip expected to suit. Progressive over hurdles in first half of year; not disgraced in a match on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (14/1 -115%)Minniemum |
14/1(-115%) | (2) Minniemum 14/1, Won a handicap by 1 1/2l off a 7lb lower mark at Ludlow on her penultimate start. Improved again when second in the Listed Bud Booth Mares' Chase at Market Rasen last time. Best suited by 3m on good ground and progressing over fences. Ran well in recent Listed race but recent 5b rise probably demands more from her. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

LADY BALKO won this 12 months ago and, following her comeback spin around Cheltenham, this has probably been the plan all year. David Pipe's mare might represent some really good value if she strips fitter. Theonewedreamof is of obvious interest given her recent form and top connections. Minniemum should be thereabouts and, like the selection, Kosasiempre is a track-and-trip winner to bear in mind.

The pick is ALFIE'S PRINCESS (nap), who made a very promising chase debut over 2m5f last autumn and can improve as a stayer.

10/3(+63%) | (7) Came From Nowhere 10/3, Made mistakes but improved under a positive ride at a sharp track when beaten 1 1/4l off a 2lb lower mark at Wincanton last time. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time. Effective at 2m and handles cut. Type to do better now handicapping. Low-mileage 6yo; up in trip after creditable second on recent handicap debut (1m7f). |

8/1(-33%) | (4) Good To Be Alive 8/1, Improved when beaten 1/2l off a 2lb lower mark at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m and may prefer some cut. Unexposed for this yard and should progress up in trip. Kept on well for close second on seasonal/stable/handicap debut; up in trip today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/1 +18%)Lightningupourdays |
9/1(+18%) | (6) Lightningupourdays 9/1, Ran to form when 9 1/4l third in a handicap hurdle at Newbury last time, returning from a long layoff. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and handles soft and good ground. Consistent in a short career, and the step up in trip should help. Progressive last winter and still has low mileage but returns from layoff in a warm race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (2/1 +27%)Marsiac |
2/1(+27%) | (2) Marsiac 2/1, Quickened clear comfortably and improved again when winning a novice hurdle here by 4l last time. Trainer in form. Effective at 2 1/2m on good to soft or good ground. The form of his maiden win has been emphatically franked and he continues to progress. Comfortably made all in C&D novice last month and now 2-3 over hurdles; handicap debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (7/2 +50%)Moveit Like Minnie |
7/2(+50%) | (5) Moveit Like Minnie 7/2, Badly hampered early and outpaced when beaten 7l in a handicap hurdle at Ascot last time, a run worth ignoring. In good form prior and effective around 2m on a sound surface. Consistent but can be frustrating. More exposed than some of these but was placed in a strong Ascot handicap last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (14/1 -300%)Loriko |
14/1(-300%) | (3) Loriko 14/1, Ran to form when second, beaten 3 1/4l, in a maiden hurdle at Ascot last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m and handles soft and good ground. Showed useful form in France and is progressing for a top yard. Second of four in Ascot maiden last month; should have improvement to come in handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (9/1 +59%)Time Interval |
9/1(+59%) | (9) Time Interval 9/1, Ran to form but tired late on ground softer than ideal when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last time. Effective at 2m though may not stay 2 1/2m, and better suited by good ground. In form and looks fairly handicapped. Back from break with two below-par runs this autumn; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (50/1 -213%)Wewillgowithplanb |
50/1(-213%) | (8) Wewillgowithplanb 50/1, Ran to form, just tiring late back from a layoff when fourth beaten 6l in a handicap hurdle at Leicester last time. Effective at 2m and acts on any ground. Inconsistent but fairly treated on chase form. Ran well last month, after a layoff, but others have stronger form and/or more potential. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Marsiac goes handicapping in search of his hat-trick, while Good To Be Alive made an encouraging start for Olly Murphy at Huntingdon, although the pick of the four-year-olds could be Loriko, who chased home Wednesday's Newbury winner Kripticjim at Ascot. On the same card in Berkshire, MOVEIT LIKE MINNIE met with misfortune when hampered by a faller, but he went off joint-favourite for that good race on the back of a fine third to Alexei and can gain compensation. Wellington Arch has to be considered on his reappearance given how well he ended his last campaign.

Up in trip after a very promising seasonal/stable/handicap debut over 2m, GOOD TO BE ALIVE gets the vote in an interesting race.

11/1(-10%) | (13) Silvereen 11/1, Outpaced but made a modest debut when 11l fourth in a juvenile bumper at Ludlow; effective at 2m on good ground; plenty more needed. 14-1 at Ludlow and showed some ability in finishing fourth of the eight runners. |

16/1(-146%) | (1) Cribbins 16/1, €52,000 breeze-up purchase by Bernardini; dam was moderate over 10f; faces a tough enough task on debut. Trainer-owned newcomer from a Flat-geared yard that's 0-5 in bumpers in recent seasons. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (80/1 -60%)Receipt |
80/1(-60%) | (5) Receipt 80/1, Green under pressure when well beaten in a juvenile bumper at Aintree on his only start; trainer in form; this is easier but he has plenty to prove. This might be an easier race than at Aintree but he was completely tailed off (22-1). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (66/1 -100%)Roi Des Diamants |
66/1(-100%) | (7) Roi Des Diamants 66/1, Honolulu gelding; wears cheekpieces for the first time; dam a chase winner in France; betting can guide. Stable 1-11 in bumpers recent seasons and cheekpieces are fitted from the outset. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||

28/1(-27%) | (3) Monsieur Fernand 28/1, Fly With Me gelding; half-brother to J'ventile, who was useful at 16f. Yard's winner of this in 2021 had the benefit of a run, but worth checking in the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (9) (14/1 +0%)Simply Dashing |
14/1(+0%) | (9) Simply Dashing 14/1, €6,200 Yeats gelding; half-brother to Channer Boy, poor over 19f; dam was very useful at 7f as a two-year-old. Sire is a strong influence for stamina; stable has bumper winners. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Silvereen and Twenties Icon displayed enough ability on their respective debuts to warrant consideration, but it may pay to focus on the unraced brigade. CRIBBINS, a son of Bernardini, shouldn't be found lacking for speed and catches the eye as a rare bumper runner for Jamie Osborne. Fellow newcomers Upton's Mighty Oak and Scott's Legacy are other intriguing types and the market may prove informative.

The Twiston-Davies yard has won this twice in recent seasons so SCOTT'S LEGACY has to be of interest.

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.
