7/4(+50%)
(1) Bearaway 7/4, Made a winning start for current yard at this C&D in December and also successful in 9-runner handicap (7/2) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) a month ago, scoring in straightforward fashion. Can make his presence felt.

7/1(+18%)
(9) Crafter 7/1, C&D winner in November and has shaped better than the result last 2 starts, forced wide 2f out when 3¼ lengths fourth of 10 to Book of Life in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f. 11/4) 20 days ago. Could be in the mix.
Won over C&D in November but he's not posed a serious threat since; needs to find more.

Naasma

10/1(+29%)
(3) Naasma 10/1, C&D winner who also scored twice in 2024, including at Kempton in October. Unsuited by conditions when last of 7 in handicap at Newbury (16f, heavy, 33/1) later same month, so she could fare better on return (won on last year's reappearance).
Has won when fresh in the past but this is competitive and her last win was at 2m.

(7) Book Of Life 4/1, Suited by the step up in trip when getting back to winning ways in 10-runner handicap (6/1) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 20 days ago, form boosted by the runner-up scoring next time. Remains well treated on old form so he's a major player.

28/1(-133%)
(8) Meet Me In Meraki 28/1, Switched to front-running tactics, better than ever when successful at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in January. Similar form when 3¼ lengths third of 10 to Book of Life in handicap (15/2) at same C&D 20 days ago and he can give his running once more.
Won at Wolverhampton last month but was a well-held third behind Book Of Life there latest.

13:55 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

BEARAWAY, who won over C&D three starts ago before brushing aside a 7lb higher mark at Wolverhampton last month, is an attractive proposition with the capable Sean D Bowen taking over in the saddle. An additional 2lb for that Dunstall Park success looks fair and a bold showing is likely back on this happy hunting ground. Solanna boasts a similar profile and is another must for the shortlist, while Obsidian Knight and Book Of Life merit market inspections.

Upped in trip, BOOK OF LIFE bounced back to form when winning with a bit in hand at Wolverhampton on his latest outing, so with more still to offer at this distance he is taken to follow up. The main danger could be Bearaway, who has won 2 of 3 starts since joining his current yard, with Solanna also arriving in good form and completing the shortlist.

It might be worth sticking with the resurgent BEARAWAY (nap) who made it 2-3 for his new yard when scoring at Wolverhampton last month.

Quandary

8.5
17/2(-70%)
(9) Quandary 17/2, Thirteen runs since last win in 2023 but creditable placed efforts in 7f handicaps on all 3 starts this year, on the latest second at Southwell in a first-time visor. Has to enter calculations.
Three solid efforts this year but she's 0-13 in handicaps and others look stronger.

(11) Callianassa 12/1, Remains a maiden after 23 starts but recent efforts creditable, faring best of those from off the pace and fourth of 10 over 7f at Newcastle last time.
Has been running well this winter but she's still a maiden after 23 starts; down the list.

Didn't get much luck on stable debut at Kempton and she's respected back up in trip.

9/1(+64%)
(6) Viennoise 9/1, C&D maiden winner for Archie Watson last spring but well beaten in 2 handicaps over 1m on turf in the summer and changed hands for 5,000 gns in the autumn. With another good yard but betting perhaps the best guide to expectations.
Left Archie Watson for 5,000gns and has something to prove on return for new yard.

(10) Liv My Life 66/1, Returned to winning ways at Southwell (7f) in January but in nothing like the same form in her 2 outings since. Bounce back needed in first-time cheekpieces.
Bounced back with an emphatic win at Southwell but she's been well held in both runs since.
6th

6th (2) Romanova (17/2 -31%)
Romanova

8.5
17/2(-31%)
(2) Romanova 17/2, Wide-margin winner of a 7f Salisbury maiden in August 2023. Missed her 3-y-o campaign but the fact she went off as short as 9/2 for a Doncaster Group 2 when last seen suggests she was highly regarded at that time and it'll be very interesting to see what the betting makes of her.
Back from long absence but she's unexposed and needs a close look on handicap debut.

Alcazan

40
40/1(-100%)
(8) Alcazan 40/1, Successful 3 times over sprint trips on turf last year. Below par on testing ground in the autumn but her mark has eased a little as a result and she's effective on AW.
11-time winner but she lost her way in last two starts and needs a major revival on return.

8th (7) Brazilian Rose (13/2 -30%)
Brazilian Rose

6.5
13/2(-30%)
(7) Brazilian Rose 13/2, C&D winner. Clicked for this yard with a hat-trick of 6f wins at Newcastle in January. The winning run came to a halt when stepped up to 7f there last time but she shaped as if still in top form in a close third. Another 5 lb higher now but remains of interest.
Went close in her bid for a Newcastle four-timer latest; up 5lb but she's respected.
9th

9th (4) Rosa Applause (11/5 +51%)
Rosa Applause

2.2
11/5(+51%)
(4) Rosa Applause 11/5, Dual 6f AW novice winner for the Crisfords, including here. Consistent in defeat in handicaps in the second half of 2024 and betting check needed now setting out for Harry Charlton. Stall 11 could be tricky, though.
4yo who had a solid record for the Crisfords; respected on return for new yard.

Cinque Verde

16/1(-33%)
(5) Cinque Verde 16/1, Seven wins over spring trips last year (including AW/turf here) and went in again at Wolverhampton (5f) in January. Respectable third at Kempton (6f) since. Can't discount but didn't quite see out the trip when fourth over C&D last Easter on previous attempt at 7f.
Held in small field at Kempton latest and almost all of her runs have been at sprint trips.

14:25 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

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

The presence of the highly-rated Aramis Grey and Romanova adds plenty of intrigue. The latter is especially noteworthy given she ran in the May Hill when last seen in September 2023 and must be of interest returning for a highly-respected yard. However, this could also be a good time to side with ROSA APPLAUSE, who won over 6f at this venue on the back of a similar break last year and is open to any amount of progression over 7f on her debut for Harry Charlton.

BRAZILIAN ROSE has been a big improver for Rebecca Menzies this year and might be able to strike again back at the scene of last summer's debut success. Aramis Grey is only 1 lb higher than when second in this race last year and can give it a good shot again. The consistent Quandary is another likely to be in the premises, while it'll be fascinating to see what the betting makes of returning Ollie Sangster runner Romanova.

Top of the list is last year's runner-up ARAMIS GREY, who didn't get much luck at Kempton on her recent stable debut.

7/2(+46%)
(4) So Darn Hot 7/2, 9/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Newcastle (6f) 42 days ago by 1¾ lengths from the reopposing Yes I'm Mali, kept up to work. A 5 lb rise looks fair. Considered.
Good effort to win at Newcastle last month; not fully exposed; big player despite 5lb rise.

2nd (8) Carbine Harvester (9/1 -100%)
Carbine Harvester

9
9/1(-100%)
(8) Carbine Harvester 9/1, Big improver in AW handicaps for top yard, completing a hat-trick of 6f successes under Harry Burns when shading a tight finish last month. A 4 lb rise shouldn't prevent him making a bold bid for 4 in a row.
3-3 in handicaps, including C&D last time; up in class and needs another step forward.

(6) Marchogion 17/2, Fairly useful form. 4/5, didn't need to improve to win 7-runner novice at Southwell (6f) 28 days ago, making all unchallenged. Will find it tougher to dominate this field.
Easy win in a weak Southwell novice four weeks ago; much more on his plate here.

(3) Majestic Wave 14/1, Career best when winning 19-runner maiden at Navan (6f, good to soft) last October. Sold out of John O'Donoghue's yard for 55,000 gns later that month. The betting should guide on this AW and handicap debut for new connections.
Beat 18 rivals at Navan (6f) prior to 55,000gns sale last October; looks on a tough mark.

(12) Coul Angel 8/1, Learning by the run, striking at the third time of asking in 6f Kempton novice last month. Probably more to come but does make his handicap debut in a hot race.
Last month's Kempton win has been handsomely franked; brings untapped potential.

Impressed at Wolverhampton the last twice (latest form strong); more to come; tough draw.

Easy win in a 5f AW maiden at Dundalk last month; more required on handicap debut.

Series of good runs on AW but looks vulnerable to less-exposed opponents.

Easy win in a 5f maiden at Newcastle last month; dangerous mark on best form; been gelded.

15:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

GOOD BANTER has looked above average in three starts to date and has a decent chance of adding to a brace of 6f wins at Wolverhampton last year. Switching to Polytrack is a minor concern for the Clive Cox-trained colt, but he otherwise offers strong appeal on his handicap bow. Coul Angel and Motawahij get plenty of weight from the selection and are others to consider.

A very competitive 3-y-o handicap. Last month's Newcastle scorer SO DARN HOT is selected to make light of a 5 lb rise and bring to an end the winning run of Carbine Harvester. Good Banter is almost certainly capable of even better and should also play a prominent role if the outside stall isn't too big of an inconvenience.

With Good Banter having the widest stall to overcome this could rest between Coul Angel and MOTAWAHIJ.

Had a miserable run through in this race 12 months ago; now 11lb lower but not solid.

15:35 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Not seen in action since the British Champions Sprint last October, SHARTASH scored first time out last season and he can do so once more on the drop in grade. The five-year-old is bred to handle the all-weather, and it may be that the recent C&D winner Prince Of Pillo gives him the most to think about off a 6lb higher mark. Both capable sorts on their day, Emaraaty Ana and Silky Wilkie must also enter calculations.

Stall one could end up being a blessing or a curse for ROHAAN, depending on how the cookie crumbles. Indeed, the threat of traffic problems are omnipresent for this come-from-behind sprinter, but he is 18 lb lower in the weights compared to when fifth in this last year and will surely go close if he gets the breaks. Ferrous put in a good shift at Ascot when last seen during the autumn and he is feared most ahead of last-time-out C&D winner Prince of Pillo.

The classy Shartash is much respected on his first run in a handicap but FERROUS came to hand early last spring and gets the nod.

(5) Ted Hastings 66/1, 14/1, fifth of 6 in handicap at Dundalk (16f) 21 days ago. Ought to come on for that run (first for 7 months) but others make more appeal all the same.
Four hurdle wins but he's 1-7 on Flat and was well held on Dundalk return; down the list.

(4) Moon Over Miami 9/4, Lightly-raced winner. Two wins from 2 runs last year. 10/3, fourth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 23 days ago, running on. Wasn't knocked about that day and he possesses potential as a stayer.
Unexposed 4yo and he's open to more progress in staying handicaps; interesting contender.

Turned things around when runner-up off reduced mark at Newcastle last time; dangerous.

(3) Mr Escobar 5/1, Quirky sort. 1/3, didn't need to improve to win 11-runner novice hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f, good to soft) 94 days ago, shaken up to assert. Good sixth of 20 in a valuable Naas handicap on latest start in this sphere he has winning form on this surface. Merits respect for top Irish jumps yard.
Won over hurdles in November and he looks interesting back on Flat for top Irish trainer.

16:10 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

ROARING LEGEND has been in top form since joining the Hugo Palmer yard and a 4lb rise for his most recent success at Newcastle may not be enough to prevent him from landing the hat-trick. A rare contender at this track for Willie Mullins, Mr Escobar went close in a valuable handicap at Chester last September and has since scored over hurdles at Sedgefield. A promising fourth when having his first go over 2m at Kempton last time out, Moon Over Miami is another to consider.

Having caught the eye when fourth upped to this trip at Kempton last time, MOON OVER MIAMI could be the answer. He still has low mileage and shades preference ahead of Givemefive, who is on a good mark judged on his hurdles exploits and he pulled clear of the rest with Surrey Belle (dual hurdles winner this month) on his latest start in this sphere during the autumn. The Willie Mullins-trained Mr Escobar and hat-trick seeking Roaring Legend are others to consider.

The vote goes to ROARING LEGEND (nap), unbeaten in two runs for his new yard and value for more than the winning margin last time.

Progressive filly who is 4-4 since handicapping and gained the last two wins over C&D.

However, went backwards from his reappearance/stable debut effort when eleventh of 12 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 21 days ago and step back up in trip needs to have positive effect.
Ex-French 4yo who is far from solid judged on his two British efforts.

Back in better form since being gelded and this return to 1m2f is worth exploring.

16:45 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Dual C&D winner Charlotte's Web arrives on a five-timer and is likely to prove popular with punters once more, although she was all out to score here last time and a 3lb rise may prove harsh. With that in mind, preference is for THE GLEN ROVERS, who has done nothing but improve this winter. While he was denied a hat-trick in a tactically-run affair over 1m3f at Kempton recently, it may pay to keep the faith with him off an unchanged mark. Royal Approval beat a subsequent winner on his handicap debut earlier this month and he catches the eye too.

Last year's winner PENZANCE has been given a break since a below-par effort at Newcastle in December and, appealing as being on a handy mark, he's selected to bounce back. Irish raider Genoah has improved for the step up in trip and he's feared along with Dragon Icon. Charlotte's Web and Royal Approval complete the shortlist.

With further improvement plausible, Irish raider GENOAH is taken to complete a hat-trick. Charlotte's Web is second choice.

Irish raider; not beaten far at Dundalk last week but more is required this time.

Won on Good Friday last year; repeat of that success likely to be the main aim; fair mark.

Never saw things out upped to 9.5f at that track 4 weeks ago but this drop in trip a plus (sole win over C&D) and respected in first-time cheekpieces.
C&D win last spring; two good handicap runs before lesser effort latest; cheekpieces now.

17:20 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

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

This looks a trappy finale, so only a tentative vote goes to WITCH HUNTER. The Group 2-winning son of Siyouni finished an excellent third in the Balmoral over a mile at Ascot when last seen in October, and he gets the vote to give weight and a beating to his rivals off the same mark. Destructive did it well when scoring over an extended mile at Wolverhampton recently and is respected off 6lb higher, although the jury is still out over the strength of that form. Fantastic Fox is also fancied to make the frame.

FANTASTIC FOX again shaped well on the back of another short break when runner-up over this trip at Newcastle 6 weeks ago and he looks a live player operating from a handy berth. The hat-trick seeking Destructive and Cynosure are others to consider, with Kalamunda completing the shortlist in the finale.

Fantastic Fox looks a solid candidate but the classy WITCH HUNTER can defy top weight granted some luck in running.

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.
