Info	Form	Odds	Comments
4	4 (4) (18/1 -50%) Toscan Genius	18 18/1(-50%)	(4) Toscan Genius 18/1, Modest Flat winner who was runner-up on debut in this sphere at Sedgefield in November. Poor efforts since, though, both on the level and in this sphere. Runner-up on Sedgefield hurdles debut; mostly disappointing since; tailed off last time..
1	5 1st (5) (9/4 -13%) Huit Reflets	2.25 9/4(-13%)	(5) Huit Reflets 9/4, Remains winless following 21 starts overall but has finished in the money all 4 starts for present yard, including over 2½m here in a first-time visor (retained) a fortnight ago. Likely to be in the thick of things once again. Maiden (0-21); drops back in distance after finishing runner-up here (2m4f) two weeks ago..
2	3 2nd (3) (9/1 +25%) Kopa Kilana	9 9/1(+25%)	(3) Kopa Kilana 9/1, Bumper winner but yet to surpass modest form over hurdles and record in this sphere stands at 0-13. Still seeking first win over hurdles (0-13); out of sorts at Carlisle (2m1f) in November..
3	8 3rd (8) (14/1 +30%) Foxwood	14 14/1(+30%)	(8) Foxwood 14/1, Bits and pieces of reasonable form but he hasn't really progressed since switched to handicaps on his last 3 starts. Back from six-month absence when weakening quickly at Perth (2m; cheekpieces) last Sunday..
4	11 4th (11) (50/1 -25%) Rhyme Scheme	50 50/1(-25%)	(11) Rhyme Scheme 50/1, Regressive on the Flat and has continued to go the wrong way over hurdles. Best to look elsewhere. Yet to threaten over hurdles (0-10) and was pulled up at massive odds at Southwell latest..
5th	1 5th (1) (8/1 -45%) Mister Moodles	8 8/1(-45%)	(1) Mister Moodles 8/1, Winner of a Doncaster novice in December but he arrives here on the back of a couple of low-key efforts and needs to bounce back. Won a Doncaster novice (2m) in December; struggled in a Class 2 handicap at Kelso latest..
6th	12 6th (12) (66/1 -32%) Frankies Fire	66 66/1(-32%)	(12) Frankies Fire 66/1, Multiple-point winner but little to get excited about under Rules. 6 lb out of the handicap Prolific pointer (6-14); rules form (0-20); facing nigh impossible task at the weights.
7th	6 7th (6) (10/1 +0%) Gine Sacre	10 10/1(+0%)	(6) Gine Sacre 10/1, French import who hasn't shown much spark in 2 starts since returning from a lengthy absence in January. Handily weighted; shaped okay, despite failing to see out her race, at Market Rasen latest.
8th	2 8th (2) (7/2 -100%) Byron Hill	3.5 7/2(-100%)	(2) Byron Hill 7/2, Fairly useful stayer on the level and has shown ability over hurdles, not least when finding just one too good at Sedgefield (16.8f, good) last month. Key player on handicap debut in this sphere. Went down fighting on stable debut at Sedgefield (2m1f); obvious chance on handicap debut..
9th	10 9th (10) (66/1 -100%) Scattercash	66 66/1(-100%)	(10) Scattercash 66/1, Winning pointer who hasn't made any sort of an impact under Rules so far, pulled up on sole start for Nigel Twiston-Davies following a 10-month absence. Debut point winner; has shown precious little for various trainers since; look elsewhere..
9	9 \|F\| (9) (450/1 -3114%) Boyneside	450 450/1(-3114%)	(9) Boyneside 450/1, Best effort to date when runner-up at Sedgefield in March but has failed to build on that in 2 subsequent starts. Twice placed in similar company; less productive last twice; work to do with Huit Reflets..

16:17 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Although he is a 21-race maiden over both hurdles and fences, HUIT REFLETS has run some good races in defeat and, after a respectable second-placed finish over 2m4f here at the beginning of the month, dropping back down in trip could be key to finally swing a result his way. Byron Hill rates the chief threat after returning from a lengthy absence with a near miss at Sedgefield 36 days ago, while top-weight Mister Moodles can also go well.

BYRON HILL lost little caste in defeat at Sedgefield last time and this represents a good opportunity for this 7-y-o to open his account in this sphere. Huit Reflets could be the one to follow him home, while Toscan Genius also enters calculations.

Patrick Neville's BYRON HILL went down to a progressive rival at Sedgefield, so is preferred to the topweight Mister Moodles.

16:52 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +40%) Going Mobile	6 6/1(+40%)	(7) Going Mobile 6/1, Failed to win in 2023 but stepped up on his reappearance when coming home fourth of 12 over this C&D in April. However, he failed to build on that at Tramore since. Dual C&D winner on good; fair fourth here two runs back; below-par latest; chance.
2	4 2nd (4) (10/1 -67%) Dream Jet	10 10/1(-67%)	(4) Dream Jet 10/1, Placed in an Irish point and left his previous form under Rules behind when landing a Stratford maiden hurdle last summer. However, his efforts in this sphere have so far lacked any real spark. Bit disappointing since hurdle win last August; on a good mark and fair chase run latest.
3	8 3rd (8) (12/1 +14%) Kicksaftersix	12 12/1(+14%)	(8) Kicksaftersix 12/1, Finally got to grips with chasing when landing 8-runner handicap in a re-fitted hood in June 2023. Ended last year on a downer, though, and well held on return at Sedgefield (17f, good). Won this race off 2lb lower in 2023; not been in great form recently (well beaten latest).
4	6 4th (6) (11/2 -22%) Divas Doyen	5.5 11/2(-22%)	(6) Divas Doyen 11/2, Poor maiden hurdler/chaser who performed with credit when runner-up over this C&D last time. Reproduction of that would give him a fighting chance but record stands at 0-17. 17-race maiden; good C&D second last time; same mark; not sure to reproduce the from.
5th	1 5th (1) (100/1 -3900%) Shadows In The Sky	100 100/1(-3900%)	(1) Shadows In The Sky 100/1, Point winner who opened his Rules account when accounting for 7 rivals here (2½m, good to soft) last month. 7 lb rise asks a question but he has to enter calculations. Off the mark over fences over 2m4f here last time (form sound); chance off 7lb higher.
6th	9 6th (9) (22/1 -57%) Rollerruler	22 22/1(-57%)	(9) Rollerruler 22/1, C&D winner in 2021 but lightly raced since and he was pulled up back here last month. Vulnerable for win purposes. Third over C&D in March; could well again but bled when pulled up here last time.
7th	5 7th (5) (100/1 -900%) Augharue	100 100/1(-900%)	(5) Augharue 100/1, Came agonisingly close to breaking his duck from a tumbling mark at Sedgefield (17f, good) last month but he failed to fire at Fakenham recently. 0-15; short-head second two runs back (form not worked out) but disappointing last time.
8th	10 8th (10) (400/1 -1500%) Barley Breeze	400 400/1(-1500%)	(10) Barley Breeze 400/1, Very little in the way of promise so far and he's readily passed over. 0-12; fair run over fences at Cartmel latest (soft); this going should suit.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (22/1 -529%) Jet Patrol	22 22/1(-529%)	(3) Jet Patrol 22/1, Placed twice from 5 starts in Irish points and has shown ability in a handful of runs over hurdles. Appeals as the type to do better now tackling fences and he's one to note in the betting. Placed in 2 Irish points; promise over hurdles (raced keenly); interesting on chase debut.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (450/1 -3650%) Breaking The Ice	450 450/1(-3650%)	(2) Breaking The Ice 450/1, Winner of 6 of his 19 starts over fences but he was below par in a handful of appearances last year and ran poorly at Wetherby when last seen in January. Will be a threat if able to bounce back. Patchy form since 2m4f course win in October 2022; pulled up last twice; back from a break.

16:52 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

SHADOWS IN THE SKY was in a buoyant mood when he made all over 2m4f here last month and, given he was well in command from a long way out, dropping back in trip might not be enough to prevent the eight-year-old from following up. Divas Doyen, runner-up to a progressive type over C&D 25 days ago, is feared most, with Jet Patrol and Augharue others to keep an eye on.

It could be worth chancing JET PATROL now that he's switched to fences. Indeed, he was placed twice in points and the drying ground will aid his cause. Shadows In The Sky is next on the list having opened his Rules account here last time, while Breaking The Ice would also be a threat if on-song.

The choice last month's C&D winner SHADOWS IN THE SKY who has his ideal conditions once again.

11	11 (11) (50/1 -150%) Goodoldbill	50 50/1(-150%)	(11) Goodoldbill 50/1, Got off the mark at Newcastle in November but pulled up in handicap chase at this C&D (soft) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with more required. Well beaten or pulled up in three starts since a 33-1 win; others preferred..
1	1 1st (1) (25/1 -79%) Breakdance Kid	25 25/1(-79%)	(1) Breakdance Kid 25/1, Scored at Market Rasen in February. 18/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, seventh of 8 in handicap chase at Perth (23.8f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Pulled up and well beaten since February win; may appreciate good ground but bit to prove..
2	6 2nd (6) (150/1 -650%) So Be It	150 150/1(-650%)	(6) So Be It 150/1, Remains a maiden after 16 runs. 28/1, last of 6 in handicap chase at Kelso (23.4f, heavy) when last seen out 7 months ago so has something to prove. On a handy mark based on 2023 form but hard to fancy on his recent form in points..
3	13 3rd (13) (450/1 -800%) Muroor	450 450/1(-800%)	(13) Muroor 450/1, Unreliable type who was pulled up in hunter chase at Carlisle (24.5f, soft) 15 months ago on his final run for Victor Thompson. Others appeal more. Dual 2m3f chase winner whose recent form has been moderate..
4	4 4th (4) (300/1 -5355%) Lights Are Green	300 300/1(-5355%)	(4) Lights Are Green 300/1, C&D winner who recorded a solid fourth of 6 in handicap chase at this C&D (soft) 14 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. C&D winner who lost a couple of places late on here on soft latest; should be involved..
5th	9 5th (9) (450/1 -2713%) Gun Merchant	450 450/1(-2713%)	(9) Gun Merchant 450/1, Not the force of old but he was set plenty to do when fifth of 8 in handicap chase at Perth (23.8f, good to soft, 40/1) 31 days ago. Can build on it. 2m7f chase winner; hard to make a strong case based on three runs since a lengthy absence..
6th	5 6th (5) (125/1 -1289%) Macavity	125 125/1(-1289%)	(5) Macavity 125/1, Bumper/point winner and not disgraced when second of 3 in 3m chase at Huntingdon last month on his final run for Jack Teal. Not ruled out for his new handler. Second at odds-on in three runner hunter chase latest; feasibly treated; not ruled out..
7th	10 7th (10) (450/1 -19900%) Not Now Tayto	450 450/1(-19900%)	(10) Not Now Tayto 450/1, Had wind op before a good second of 7 in handicap chase at this course (20.1f, soft) on his debut over fences 14 days ago. Up in trip now and can make his presence felt. Ran on for second here (2m4f, soft) latest; up 2lb; player if able to back that up..
8th	12 8th (12) (350/1 -1300%) Buto	350 350/1(-1300%)	(12) Buto 350/1, Modest winning hurdler but he ran poorly on the Flat at Pontefract (17.1f, good) 5 days ago. More is needed on his chase debut. Hard to make a strong case on his chase debut based on any recent form in either code..
9th	2 9th (2) (350/1 -4900%) Castletown	350 350/1(-4900%)	(2) Castletown 350/1, Unreliable individual who came in only fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Kelso (21.6f, good to soft, 9/1) 20 days ago. Others appeal more. 2lb lower than last win; needs to shrug off below par run but claims on penultimate start.
3	3 \|F\| (3) (200/1 -4900%) Ribeye	200 200/1(-4900%)	(3) Ribeye 200/1, Course winner who posted a good third of 12 in handicap chase at Market Rasen (21.4f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Holds good form claims. Placed twice from his last three starts from this same mark and should be thereabouts..
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (350/1 -2400%) Artic Breeze	350 350/1(-2400%)	(7) Artic Breeze 350/1, Remains a maiden and he was pulled up in handicap chase at this C&D (good to soft, 14/1) 25 days ago. Others are preferred. Well held and pulled up last two starts; early days; not written off from workable mark..
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (400/1 -3233%) West Lawn	400 400/1(-3233%)	(8) West Lawn 400/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022 and only fifth of 8 in handicap chase at this C&D (good to soft) 25 days ago. Needs to get back on track. 0-10 over fences but each-way player if bouncing back from latest below par C&D effort..
14	14 \|PU\| (14) (450/1 -2150%) Dark Duomo	450 450/1(-2150%)	(14) Dark Duomo 450/1, Unreliable maiden hurdler/chaser. Pulled up in handicap chase at Kelso (23.4f, soft, 13/2) 20 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. 0-13 under rules; unable to make a case based on any form since last November..

17:27 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The trip might well have been the undoing of NOT NOW TAYTO when he just failed to reel in the winner in a tight finish over 2m4f here a fortnight ago and, given that was his first run back after wind surgery, the relatively quick turnaround suggests another bold showing can be expected now the gelding steps up to 3m for first time under Rules. Others to consider include Ribeye, Castletown and Buto.

Not as competitive as the numbers suggest and course-winner RIBEYE is taken to resume winning ways on the back of his good recent Market Rasen third. C&D winner Lights Are Green rates next best, although both Not Now Tayto and Macavity need factoring in too.

This looks an opportunity for the unexposed NOT NOW TAYTO (nap) to get off the mark over fences with this longer trip looking positive.

18:00 Hexham Novices Hurdle (Class 3) 16f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	8 1st (8) (25/1 -56%) Stylish Recruit	25 25/1(-56%)	(8) Stylish Recruit 25/1, Irish point winner but has shaped like a stayer so far over hurdles and this test will likely prove inadequate again. Below par after a break at Perth last month (2m, good to soft; tongue tied); more needed..
2	5 2nd (5) (22/1 -83%) Famous Liss	22 22/1(-83%)	(5) Famous Liss 22/1, Off mark in Irish points at sixth attempt and bettered hurdling debut when fourth at Kelso last time, finishing with more to give. Type to do better at some point. Better effort when fourth at Kelso (2m, good to soft); needs another big step up on that..
3	2 3rd (2) (4/5 +12%) If You Let Me	0.8 4/5(+12%)	(2) If You Let Me 4/5, Point winner who showed ability in bumpers and created a big impression when making a successful hurdling debut at Kilbeggan a month ago. Sets the standard with loads more to come, so obvious choice. Looks destined for better things based on his easy win and could prove tough to beat..
4	1 4th (1) (5/2 +0%) Shengai Enki	2.5 5/2(+0%)	(1) Shengai Enki 5/2, Fair hurdler who is going the right way at present, improving again to land a novice at Worcester a fortnight ago. Has to give weight to one with more potential, but should give a good account. Hat-trick seeker who should give a good account in trying to concede weight all round..
5th	13 5th (13) (125/1 -89%) Westerdale	125 125/1(-89%)	(13) Westerdale 125/1, Out of a winning pointer and hinted at ability when fifth in a novice here on hurdling debut. Looks more of a long-term project, though. Well beaten (struck into herself) on debut; watching brief suggested dropping in trip..
6th	11 6th (11) (300/1 -500%) Away She Goes	300 300/1(-500%)	(11) Away She Goes 300/1, Well held in 2 bumpers and hard to fancy on her first go in this discipline. Well beaten in two bumpers, leaving her plenty to prove on her hurdling debut..
7th	3 7th (3) (100/1 -1438%) Auld Toon Loon	100 100/1(-1438%)	(3) Auld Toon Loon 100/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 10.5f), below form final start in 2023. Has left David O'Meara ahead of this hurdling debut and worthy of a market check after 8 months off. Dual 1m2f Flat winner; interesting newcomer to hurdles; tongue-tied; market check..
8th	10 8th (10) (300/1 -1775%) Yakaleo	300 300/1(-1775%)	(10) Yakaleo 300/1, Out of a winning hurdler/chaser and offered plenty of encouragement when third at Musselburgh on debut. Failed to build on that and will probably have an educational start to his hurdling career. Dam won over hurdles and fences; may be capable of improving tackling obstacles..
9th	14 9th (14) (100/1 -900%) What A Flirth	100 100/1(-900%)	(14) What A Flirth 100/1, Runner-up in an Irish point but only modest form so far over hurdles. Has joined a top British yard now but she'll probably be more interesting once qualified for a mark. Involved for a long way on hurdles debut (3m, good); check market on debut for top yard..
10th	12 10th (12) (350/1 -430%) Dear Dot	350 350/1(-430%)	(12) Dear Dot 350/1, From quite a good family but there wasn't enough encouragement in her bumper debut at Kelso to make her of interest in the short term. 33-1 when well beaten on debut in a Kelso bumper; best watched on hurdling debut..
11th	4 11th (4) (300/1 -200%) Fairly Fulling	300 300/1(-200%)	(4) Fairly Fulling 300/1, Failed to complete both starts in points and yet to offer much encouragement under Rules. Well beaten in bumpers and on his hurdling debut; much more needed..
12th	7 12th (7) (500/1 -900%) Stonegate	500 500/1(-900%)	(7) Stonegate 500/1, Modest form in bumpers and, while he's bred to make a hurdler, he's likely to be outclassed on this first attempt at it. Improved in bumpers; dam a 2m hurdle winner and he can come on again now hurdling..
9	9 \|PU\| (9) (400/1 -1112%) Upfordebate	400 400/1(-1112%)	(9) Upfordebate 400/1, Showed a bit on bumper debut in January but not in the same form a month later and left the impression that this sort of test isn't sufficient when third of 6 at Market Rasen on hurdling debut. Others preferred. Didn't jump fluently when 20l third on hurdles debut at Market Rasen (2m, good) latest..
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (400/1 -900%) Mafia Power	400 400/1(-900%)	(6) Mafia Power 400/1, Fair performer on the Flat (stays 1½m) for Archie Watson and showed some promise at Sedgefield on hurdling debut. Tame display at Doncaster next time and has been off for 5 months since. Tailed off at Doncaster in January; since had wind surgery; returns with a bit to prove..

18:00 Hexham Novices Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Shengai Enki has impressively notched a double and warrants plenty of respect chasing down the hat-trick, but this prize could well be going back to Ireland courtesy of IF YOU LET ME. The five-year-old left his bumper form well behind when dotting up on his hurdling debut at Kilbeggan last month and it's worth noting that he is Gavin Cromwell's and Keith Donoghue's only runner/ride on the card. Jumping newcomer Auld Toon Loon adds further spice to the race.

IF YOU LET ME was highly impressive at Kilbeggan on hurdling debut and this race is weaker, so he's well fancied to follow up at the likely expense of Shengai Enki, who arrives on a hat-trick.

This should concern previous winners Shengai Enki and IF YOU LET ME and, in receipt of 4lb from the former the latter is preferred.

1	9 1st (9) (13/2 +35%) Kingston Bridge	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(9) Kingston Bridge 13/2, Back on the up when scoring at Kelso in April and far from disgraced when eighth in more competitive race there last month. Others look better treated. Kelso winner in April; not so good last time and others look stronger..
2	7 2nd (7) (4/1 +0%) Imperial Data	4 4/1(+0%)	(7) Imperial Data 4/1, Likeable sort with an excellent strike rate under Rules, producing another improved showing to score at Cartmel last time. Cheekpieces could draw out more still, and he's worthy of interest. Has won of his last five, latest last month; up 15lb in all; headgear tried; a possible.
3	8 3rd (8) (66/1 -32%) Accidental Rebel	66 66/1(-32%)	(8) Accidental Rebel 66/1, Useful hurdler at best for Fergal O'Brien, winning 4 times from 6 starts in the 2022/23 campaign. However, absent for 14 months subsequently and has offered little in 2 Perth handicap hurdles for new stable this spring. Ex-Fergal O'Brien; four wins in 2022; not fared as well since; best watched for now.
4	3 4th (3) (12/1 +40%) Barbados Buck's	12 12/1(+40%)	(3) Barbados Buck's 12/1, Quite a useful hurdler for Paul Nicholls and struck at the second time of asking for his new stable in small-field handicap at Carlisle (25f, heavy) in December. Below that level since but he at least drops back in grade now. Won three-runner 3m1f handicap in December; hasn't run as well since and others stronger.
5th	6 5th (6) (14/1 -409%) Well Educated	14 14/1(-409%)	(6) Well Educated 14/1, Confirmed previous encouragement when capitalising on a reduced mark at Hexham last month and followed up 5 days later at Kelso. Should go well again but he's 8 lb worse off with Hartur D'Oudairies from their last meeting. Has won his last two races, the first over C&D (Hartur d'Oudairies 2nd); up 11lb; chance.
6th	1 6th (1) (100/1 -733%) Caius Marcius	100 100/1(-733%)	(1) Caius Marcius 100/1, Admirable veteran who bagged a 21f Newton Abbot handicap hurdle last summer. Has generally struggled for form since but warrants a market check back from 6 months off. Veteran; 12-47 over hurdles; goes well fresh, needs decent ground; one with a chance.
4	4 \|PU\| (4) (150/1 -500%) Egality Mans	150 150/1(-500%)	(4) Egality Mans 150/1, Useful chaser in his pomp for Willie Mullins but lost his way and has been pulled up twice in points this year. Potentially well handicapped but has a bit to prove. Ex-Willie Mullins; formerly useful; pulled up both starts pointing in 2024; wind op since.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (350/1 -11567%) Hartur D'oudairies	350 350/1(-11567%)	(5) Hartur D'oudairies 350/1, Going the right way and has very much taken to this track, scoring here in May, then backing it up with a good second to Well Educated. Can turn the tables with that rival on significantly better terms. In good form recently winning over 2m here then good 2nd to Well Educated over C&D; chance.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (450/1 -14900%) Chilinlikeavillain	450 450/1(-14900%)	(2) Chilinlikeavillain 450/1, Much improved after wind surgery last winter, winning a 20.5f Southwell maiden. Absent for 15 months ahead of handicap debut but still an interesting runner, particularly if backed. 2m4f Southwell winner in March 2023; not run since; interesting despite long break.

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

Many will fancy Hartur D'oudairies to turn the tables on WELL EDUCATED, being 8lb better off for a half-length beating, but the latter took another step forward when following up at Kelso and he is fancied to confirm his superiority over the rival en route to completing the hat-trick. Imperial Data has won four of his last five outings and first-time cheekpieces could potentially unlock another gear, while Chilinlikeavillain is worth a market check at least on his first outing since March last year.

HARTUR D'OUDAIRIES was denied by Well Educated here in May but there's more to come from him and his old rival is much worse off at the weights having scored again since, so the first-named gets the nod. Imperial Data should typically put up a solid showing.

The choice is the veteran CAIUS MARCIUS, who has a good record fresh and has his ideal conditions. Well Educated is next best.

19:00 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (28/1 -100%) Cooper's Cross	28 28/1(-100%)	(2) Cooper's Cross 28/1, Had an excellent 2022/23 campaign, winning Sky Bet at Doncaster and second in Scottish National at Ayr, but last season was pretty much a write off, pulling up on his last 5 starts. Remains to be seen if a return to hurdles for the first time since 2020 sparks him back to life. Second in 2023 Scottish National; disappointing since; difficult to assess back hurdling.
1	1 1st (1) (28/1 -180%) Dinons	28 28/1(-180%)	(1) Dinons 28/1, Pretty useful but not seen since winning a course handicap chase for Mark Campion in June 2022. The betting should help guide to expectations on hurdle return for new stable. 2mf chase winner here on final start for Mark Campion (June 2022); off since; interesting.
2	9 2nd (9) (300/1 -4186%) Shantou Moon	300 300/1(-4186%)	(9) Shantou Moon 300/1, Successful over 25f at Catterick in January for Tristan Davidson. Shrugged off a poor first run for this stable when second over C&D (soft) a fortnight ago. Should remain competitive from an unchanged mark. Ex-Tristan Davidson; decent 2nd for this yard over C&D latest; this looks a tougher race.
3	3 3rd (3) (50/1 -1718%) Minniemum	50 50/1(-1718%)	(3) Minniemum 50/1, Free-goer who finally came good in 23f Bangor handicap last month. A 5 lb rise is unlikely to prevent another prominent showing. Off the mark in a 2m7f h'cap hurdle last time; up 5lb; interesting jockey booking; chance.
4	6 4th (6) (66/1 -100%) Pure Sirloin	66 66/1(-100%)	(6) Pure Sirloin 66/1, Made a winning handicap debut at Navan (2½m) in January 2023 but hasn't progressed as hoped since, pulling up at Listowel when last seen in September. Others more persuasive on first start since leaving Gavin Cromwell. Navan h'cap winner for Gavin Cromwell in January 2023; not so good since; plenty to prove.
5th	10 5th (10) (150/1 -838%) Famous Response	150 150/1(-838%)	(10) Famous Response 150/1, Uttoxeter novice hurdle winner for Dan Skelton last July but well below that form in a pair of handicaps for new yard this season. Cheekpieces on first time. Point winner here in May; 2m7f hurdles winner for Dan Skelton in 2020; others stronger.
6th	8 6th (8) (350/1 -3400%) Dillarchie	350 350/1(-3400%)	(8) Dillarchie 350/1, Scored at Sedgefield (27f) in February and creditable fourth over C&D on her last 2 outings. 3m3f winner in February; some fair runs since, including C&D 4th last time (good).
7th	7 7th (7) (100/1 -2122%) Swallows Song	100 100/1(-2122%)	(7) Swallows Song 100/1, Runner-up in a C&D maiden early last season and made an encouraging return from a winter break when fourth of 15 in 22.5f Kelso handicap last month. Given a chance to build on that promise having been dropped 2 lb. Bumper winner in 2022; several places over hurdles (2nd over C&D in May); each-way chance.
8th	5 8th (5) (450/1 -7400%) Les's Legacy	450 450/1(-7400%)	(5) Les's Legacy 450/1, Three-time hurdle winner during 2022/23 campaign, including here. Good second over 2½m at this course last month and might have found the run coming too soon back here since. Now steps up in trip with a visor added. The stable won the race last year. Last win was in March 2023; several fair runs since including C&D 2nd in May; new headgear.
9th	4 9th (4) (300/1 -6567%) Tigga Time	300 300/1(-6567%)	(4) Tigga Time 300/1, Point winner who posted his best effort in novice hurdles when 6 lengths second of 13 at Kelso (21f, good) last month. While his opening mark isn't obviously generous he's unexposed and the step up to around 3m promises to suit him. Point winner; best hurdles run when 2nd in novice last time; interesting on h'cap debut.
11	11 \|PU\| (11) (200/1 -1150%) Tartan Cookie	200 200/1(-1150%)	(11) Tartan Cookie 200/1, Modest handicap hurdler. Ran well when third at Catterick when last seen but that was 17 months ago. Checcck market for clues on return to action. Won h'cap at Newcastle with blinkers in Feb 2022; no easy task after long break.

19:00 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f Race Class Flow

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

Henry Daly wouldn't be a frequent Hexham visitor, indeed he boasts an impressive course record of three winners from four past runners, so the fact that MINNIEMUM is his sole representative on the card is hugely interesting. Add to that the seven-year-old arrives following a breakthrough success at Bangor and champion jockey Harry Cobden takes over in the plate, she gets a confident vote. Tigga Time represents an in-form Sandy Thomson stable and looks an obvious danger on his handicap debut, while Dillarchie holds each-way claims.

SWALLOWS SONG shaped quite well in a big field at Kelso on his return from a break last month and might prove the answer to this finale. Minniemum is a last-time-out winner and has Harry Cobden doing the steering so expect her to be in the thick of things. The shortlist is completed by Tigga Time who has potential now stepping up in trip for his handicap debut.

With his stable going well TIGGA TIME is taken to get off the mark over hurdles by beating last month's Bangor winner Minniemum.

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.
