1.38/1(+54%)
(5) Salvino 1.38/1, Successful pointer who was placed on both his starts in bumpers and matched the pick of his maiden form after 6 months off when runner-up on his handicap debut at Carlisle (20f) 23 days ago, just failing. Leading player.

2/1(-23%)
(1) Gaillimh A Stor 2/1, Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points and looked potentially useful in getting off the mark at just the second time of asking over hurdles at Ayr (20.4f) in March, forging clear. Open to further improvement over this longer trip and can defy a penalty.

No But I Will

6/1(+20%)
(4) No But I Will 6/1, £50,000 5-y-o, Telescope gelding. Half-brother to modest hurdler Rock On Tommy. Dam (h111), unreliable 2½m-3m hurdle winner (stayed 27f), also 11f-1¾m winner who stayed 2m on Flat. Won sole start in Irish points (Apr 17, only 2 finishers). Needs a market check.

(7) Reve De Niamh 40/1, Telescope mare who shaped with some encouragement when runner-up on only outing for Fergal O'Brien in Taunton bumper back in January. Upped in trip and found only one too good again on Sedgefield hurdling debut last month, albeit no match for winner. That form is hardly solid, though.

Wheelbahri

4.5
4.5/1(-13%)
(3) Wheelbahri 4.5/1, C&D winner who enjoyed a terrific 2021/22 campaign when a four-time scorer. Looked rusty on his return when sixth of 7 at Carlisle 23 days ago and no surprise to see him take a big step forward here.

(5) Edmond Dantes 2.5/1, Made a successful chase debut at Market Rasen in February and continued in good form after, including when staying-on fourth of 8 in handicap over C&D on his return 14 days ago. Considered.

(2) Netywell 2.25/1, Promising novice hurdler who signed off for last term with stylish win in 2m Wetherby maiden in March. Very much the sort to go on over fences and he's a most interesting chasing debutant.

Dalyotin

(2) Dalyotin 8/1, Dual chase winner in France and, after a couple of spins over hurdles, opened his account for current yard in good style back over fences at Sedgefield in March. Raised 7 lb but he could have more to offer for this stable. Contender if primed after 8 months off.

(8) Broadway Joe 5.5/1, Made a fine start over fences last term, winning his first 3 races in novice handicaps (including here) and beaten by some well-treated rivals after. Can go well again on return.

12
12/1(+14%)
(1) Up Helly Aa King 12/1, Looked about as good as ever under a cool ride when scoring at Doncaster (3m) on final start last season. Has won fresh so couldn't be dismissed on return under good conditional.

Avoid De Master

11
11/1(-57%)
(4) Avoid De Master 11/1, In fine form during the spring, bagging handicap chases at Hexham (3m) and Market Rasen. Creditable return over hurdles at the former track 4 weeks ago and worth a look back chasing.
7th

7th (6) Fete Champetre (5.5/1 -10%)
Fete Champetre

5.5
5.5/1(-10%)
(6) Fete Champetre 5.5/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner and similar form over fences in 3 runs at the end of last year, not jumping too great the last twice. Could have more to offer if improving in that department and has won at Kelso on his return for the last 2 seasons.
8th

8th (5) Breaking The Ice (4/1 +0%)
Breaking The Ice

4
4/1(+0%)
(5) Breaking The Ice 4/1, Enjoyed a splendid first season over fences, completing a course hat-trick here over further, and picked up where he left off with victory at Hexham 4 weeks ago. This is tougher up 7 lb but he must demand respect.

Stoney Rover

(4) Stoney Rover 6/1, Going the right way when last seen 6 months ago, scoring cosily at Ayr. More to come if he's tuned up, so merits plenty of respect.

Brandy McQueen

2.5/1(+0%)
(5) Brandy McQueen 2.5/1, Improved for the step up to staying distances in the spring, scoring at Perth and over C&D. Good efforts both starts since, runner-up here a fortnight ago, and another bold showing is expected.

Kaizer

3.5
3.5/1(+65%)
(1) Kaizer 3.5/1, Enjoyed a fine first half to 2022 and, while he's not been in top form this term, it's dangerous to dismiss him at a track where he boasts a good record.

2.75
2.75/1(+45%)
(3) Theme Tune 2.75/1, Perfect start over hurdles in 2020/21, winning in the mud at Ludlow and Carlisle. Progress stalled since but he's potentially well treated starting out for an in-form stable (has left Jonjo O'Neill).
5th

Ratfacemcdougall

Tomorrow's Angel

7.5
7.5/1(-36%)

Chanceanotherfive

20
20/1(+9%)
(8) Chanceanotherfive 20/1, Fair winning hurdler/chaser who is on a reduced mark and took a step back in the right direction when eighth over C&D last time, so he's not one to write off.

Brayhill

3.5
3.5/1(-17%)
(4) Brayhill 3.5/1, Made a winning hurdling debut at Carlisle back in spring 2021 and having ran out approaching the last next time, showed no sign of waywardness when third on handicap debut at Musselburgh 11 months ago. Had wind op since and this winning Irish pointer could well have a say in proceedings.

Castletown

2.12
2.12/1(+58%)
(6) Castletown 2.12/1, Still not one to trust fully but he has found some consistency since joining this yard, following small-field C&D win in May with a series of creditable efforts in defeat (including over timber here last month). Could prove vulnerable to younger legs today.
3
2
3rd (2) Leostar (25/1 -56%)
Leostar

25
25/1(-56%)
(2) Leostar 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler who put up a career best when landing an uncompetitive event over 20.9f here back in March 2021. Similar form when runner-up at Ayr 3 weeks later but not seen since so watching brief advised on yard/chase debut.

Ned Tanner

1.38
1.38/1(+31%)
(1) Ned Tanner 1.38/1, Opened his account in novice at this track last December and well backed to double his tally on his second start in handicaps at Ayr in March, impressing with the way he went through the race. Rates an interesting chasing debutant and any further rain would only help.
5th

5th (5) Devour (12/1 -140%)
Devour

12
12/1(-140%)
(5) Devour 12/1, Won first start in a handicap over hurdles at Wetherby in October 2020. Largely below form over timber since, though been more encouraging signs on both outings over fences (runner-up at Newcastle in April). Could put that experience to good use.

Pavlik

12
12/1(+0%)
(2) Pavlik 12/1, In process of shaping well when falling on hurdles debut at Aintree and confirmed that promise when second at Hexham on next start. Unable to get involved from well off pace last time and capable of better now handicapping over longer trip.

Bestiarius

Post Chaise

2.25
2.25/1(+36%)
(11) Post Chaise 2.25/1, Won a strong race for this grade at Hereford on penultimate outing last season and proved he could be competitive from this mark when second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (23.7f, good, 2/1) on final start. Trip may be on sharp side but he's a leading player.

3/1(-20%)
(1) Gentleman De Mai 3/1, Irish point runner-up from the family of Bristol de Mai made a winning start under Rules in 9-runner novice hurdle at Ayr just over a year ago. Open to significant improvement and should take the beating if ready to roll.

14/1(+30%)
(4) Balkalin 14/1, Opened his account at the thirteenth attempt as a hurdler in 6-runner novice (16.2f) here last month. Not disgraced under penalty when fourth at Carlisle last time, so isn't fully ruled out.
7th

7th (7) Fortcanyon (28/1 +0%)
Fortcanyon

28
28/1(+0%)
(7) Fortcanyon 28/1, Ran to fair level when fourth in Newcastle maiden last December and reportedly suffered from breathing problem over markedly longer trip here next time. Remains likely to be suited by this sort of trip and is an interesting handicap debutant.
8th

8th (6) Golden Robin (22/1 -57%)
Golden Robin

22/1(-57%)
(6) Golden Robin 22/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2020. Little show in a pair of starts for this yard, most recently when eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (20f, heavy) 16 days ago.
9th

You Some Boy

14
14/1(+36%)
(3) You Some Boy 14/1, Landed hat-trick between December and January last season but found life tougher from higher mark on final start last term. Could prove more competitive with rider's 5 lb claim offsetting chunk of the rise.

(8) Azof Des Mottes 10/1, Disappointed on return from breathing op when only ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (17.2f, good to soft, 9/2) 23 days ago. Fair mark on pick of last year's form but bit to prove now.

Knocknamona

66
66/1(-313%)

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.
