Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Emmanuel Clayeux. Interesting to see what the market makes of him. Third on debut in a 3yo bumper in France over 1m4f last year; yard going well; shortlisted.
3	10 3rd (10) (7/2 +91%) That Danny Feeling	3.5 7/2(+91%)	(10) That Danny Feeling 7/2, Diamond Boy gelding. Dam, unraced, closely related to useful hurdler (stayed 25f) My Immortal. By a useful sire but best watched on debut for future reference.

7th	1 7th (1) (16/1 -14%) Desert Haven	16 16/1(-14%)	(1) Desert Haven 16/1, Fairly useful on Flat and given a considerate introduction to hurdling when eleventh of 20 in maiden at Galway (16.7f, good to soft) on NH debut 19 days ago. Should improve. Dual Flat winner over 7f; beaten 30l on hurdling bow earlier this month; others preferred.
8th	14 8th (14) (11/8 -209%) Korea	1.375 11/8(-209%)	(14) Korea 11/8, Fairly useful on Flat in France, stays 15f, won maiden final start in 2023. Sold from N. Clement €50,000 later same year. Of obvious interest. Won a heavy ground maiden in France so has to be seriously respected on hurdling debut.
9th	15 9th (15) (40/1 -43%) Randall Poets Lass	40 40/1(-43%)	(15) Randall Poets Lass 40/1, Modest maiden handicapper on Flat, stays 1¼m, step back in right direction last time. Likely outsider on hurdle debut. Flat form has gone badly downhill this year and best watched on hurdles debut.
10th	3 10th (3) (5/1 +23%) Edge Of Darkness	5 5/1(+23%)	(3) Edge Of Darkness 5/1, Second of 8 in claimer at Roscommon (10.4f, heavy, 13/2) 39 days ago, clear of rest. Modest over hurdles, ran respectably when fourth on most recent outing in this sphere. Not bad efforts in three maiden hurdles before 2nd in a Roscommon Flat claimer last time.

16	16 \|PU\| (16) (300/1 -20%) Rhodesia	300 300/1(-20%)	(16) Rhodesia 300/1, Down the field in 2 maiden hurdles. Hooded for 1st time. Flat maiden has been well beaten in two maiden hurdles and handicaps will suit better.

While second five times, KOREA managed just one win from eight starts in France, claiming a heavy ground maiden over an extended mile and a half trip last November. Starting off for Willie Mullins now, she looks the one to beat despite her lack of experience over flights. Newcomer Kazakh D'arthel won't have to be a star to make his presence felt, with the Gavin Cromwell-trained French bred out of a half-sister to seven time winner Enjeu D'Arthel. The 111-rated Edge Of Darkness finished second in a claimer at Roscommon last month and on his initial outing for new connections, he should be able to make an impact. A good third over the course and distance on Thursday, Herbies Rover is another leading hope.

KOREA showed a fairly useful level of form on the Flat in France and, having transferred to Willie Mullins' yard, he makes plenty of appeal on this switch to hurdling. Kazakh d'Arthel is another interesting runner having shown promise in his sole outing in bumpers in France and is feared most ahead of Edge of Darkness.

Not many make a lot of appeal. KOREA looks the one to side with from the champion trainer.

14:50 Listowel Maiden Hurdle 20f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (9/2 -13%) Where's My Jet	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(4) Where's My Jet 9/2, Bumper winner who left hurdling debut form when winning 14-runner maiden at Killarney (16.4f, good to soft, 10/1) 35 days ago, pushed out. Should be fine with the step back up in trip and much respected in follow-up bid. Bumper winner won a Killarney maiden hurdle last time over 2m; this trip is a question.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/6 +59%) My Great Mate	0.666667 4/6(+59%)	(3) My Great Mate 4/6, Promising type completed a simple task in 7-runner maiden hurdle at Sligo (20.6f, soft, 1/11) 38 days ago, unchallenged. Likely to progress further. Won a Sligo maiden hurdle in a canter last time; closely matched with Donnie Devito.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 -157%) Donnie Devito	4.5 9/2(-157%)	(1) Donnie Devito 9/2, Improved again to make it 2 wins from 3 starts over hurdles in 12-runner novice hurdle (11/1) at Galway (20.7f, good to soft) 58 days ago, responding well. Much respected despite having to concede weight all round. Improved lately to win a Punchestown maiden and Galway novice; double penalty but a player.
4	5 4th (5) (10/1 -54%) Disco Dancer	10 10/1(-54%)	(5) Disco Dancer 10/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Latest win in hurdle at Cork in July. Creditable third of 6 in minor event hurdle at this C&D (good, 5/1) 6 days ago. Should remain competitive. Maiden hurdle winner has been consistent in defeat lately; 3rd over C&D earlier in week.
6	6 \|F\| (6) (80/1 -60%) Cathryns Ruby	80 80/1(-60%)	(6) Cathryns Ruby 80/1, Went backwards from hurdling bow when seventh of 9 in maiden at Sligo (17.4f, soft, 11/1) 38 days ago. Hooded for 1st time. Easy to look elsewhere. Distant 3rd in a Cork maiden hurdle but well beaten since and plenty to find; hood on.

Willie Mullins saddles two and while Paul Townend has opted to partner My Great Mate, it might be worth siding with his stable companion WHERE'S MY JET. Disappointing when keen on his penultimate start at Galway, he bounced back in style at Killarney, making virtually all when comfortably accounting for 13 rivals. Proven on testing ground, he goes back up in trip now and a bold bid looks likely. The hat-trick seeking Donnie Devito is the clear form choice, after battling successes at Punchestown and Galway respectively. He beat the aforementioned My Great Mate by half a length when they clashed at Punchestown and there is again likely to be little between them here. A solid third over the course and distance on Sunday last, Disco Dancer also warrants respect.

MY GREAT MATE completed a simple task in the manner of a useful sort at Sligo last month and is fancied to follow up with further progress on the cards. Where's My Jet, a stablemate of the selection, could be the one to provide the main threat.

The 5lb swing in the weights could be enough to enable MY GREAT MATE to turn the tables on Donnie Devito from their earlier clash.

15:25 Listowel Handicap Hurdle 20f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	4 1st (4) (13/2 +0%) Champella	6.5 13/2(+0%)	(4) Champella 13/2, Latest win in hurdle at Galway in July. Respectable fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Killarney (22.4f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Place possibilities. Won off 116 at Galway Festival, beaten 18.5l off revised mark latest, others preferred.
2	7 2nd (7) (5/4 +62%) Ballywilliam Boy	1.25 5/4(+62%)	(7) Ballywilliam Boy 5/4, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Good third of 14 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (soft, 4/1) 2 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Last won over hurdles in 2021, placed in four of last five, declared to run on Thursday.
3	10 3rd (10) (10/1 -186%) Brilliant Light	10 10/1(-186%)	(10) Brilliant Light 10/1, Thrice-raced winner over hurdles. Useful winner at 12f on Flat. Won 11-runner novice hurdle (11/8) at Worcester (16f, good) 27 days ago, finding extra. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Shortlist material. Off the mark in a novice at Worcester, classy on the Flat, may find this ground too soft.
4	1 4th (1) (9/2 +10%) Toto Too	4.5 9/2(+10%)	(1) Toto Too 9/2, Creditable third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (22.4f, good to soft, 10/1) 35 days ago, faring best of those held up. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others more persuasive. Novice winner on testing ground, burst blood vessels twice since, better latest but risky.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +27%) Gold Speed	5.5 11/2(+27%)	(5) Gold Speed 11/2, C&D winner. 18/1, bit below form eighth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Killarney (22.4f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Could have a part to play. Won this off 118 a year ago, can lead, ground fine and sharper for last run, chance.
6th	9 6th (9) (14/1 -27%) Dream In The Park	14 14/1(-27%)	(9) Dream In The Park 14/1, 10/3, pulled up in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, good to soft) 145 days ago, beaten some way out. Switches from chase to hurdles. First run for yard after leaving Emma Lavelle. UK recruit, stable debut after 145 day absence, pulled up on latest, ground a worry, watch.
7th	8 7th (8) (9/1 +55%) Thegraveyardbookie	9 9/1(+55%)	(8) Thegraveyardbookie 9/1, Winner in hurdle at Limerick in December. 40/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, heavy), pulled up after next. Off 6 months. Maiden hurdle winner on heavy in December, pulled up when last seen in March, watch.
8th	6 8th (6) (50/1 -150%) Shesadream	50 50/1(-150%)	(6) Shesadream 50/1, Sixth of 8 in novice chase (28/1) at Ballinrobe (23.4f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Best form on good ground, poor efforts the last twice, pulled up sole try on soft.

Successful in this very race 12 months ago, GOLD SPEED is the selection. Seen just once since that triumph, the now 11-year-old had a pipe-opener at Killarney last month and is sure to come on plenty for that effort. Toto Too and Champella were third and fourth in that Killarney contest and they both look to have solid claims, with the former tried in first time cheekpieces. The same headgear worked the oracle on Barry Lydon when he readily accounted for his rivals at Bellewstown last month. The subject of good market support on that occasion, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. Handicap debutant Brilliant Light is an interesting contender after making the breakthrough at Worcester recently, while Ballywilliam Boy, who was third over the course and distance on Thursday, and dual UK winner Dream In The Park are others of interest.

BRILLIANT LIGHT made it third time lucky in this shere at Worcester at the beginning of the month and he could have more to offer now pitched into a handicap. Barry Lyndon is feared most ahead of Dream In The Park and Ballywilliam Boy, who has been knocking on the door.

A chance is taken on GOLD SPEED. He won this last year, his last run should have blown away any cobwebs and he is versatile tactically.

15:25 Listowel Handicap Hurdle 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:55 Listowel Handicap Hurdle 18f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	10 1st (10) (10/1 +17%) The Nagger Reidy	10 10/1(+17%)	(10) The Nagger Reidy 10/1, Promising type. Sixth of 10 in novice hurdle at Navan (20f, heavy, 150/1), not knocked about. Off 9 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Open to improvement and worth a market check. Best effort in maidens a 10l sixth, best watched on handicap bow after 286 day break.
2	9 2nd (9) (10/1 +50%) Duke Otto	10 10/1(+50%)	(9) Duke Otto 10/1, 16/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at Clonmel (16.6f, good) 23 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. Poor on last hurdle run. Others make more appeal. On last winning mark, should appreciate the return to softer ground, check the market.
3	1 3rd (1) (7/2 +0%) Dgalwaygallivantor	3.5 7/2(+0%)	(1) Dgalwaygallivantor 7/2, Fairly useful winner at 19f in chases. Career best when winning 11-runner novice chase at Downpatrick (19.4f, good to soft, 11/2) 127 days ago, readily. Switches from chase to hurdles. Looks well in and is worth chancing. 1-9 over hurdles, won a beginners chase when last seen in May, off 127 days, may need this.
4	16 4th (16) (9/1 +25%) Le Fanu	9 9/1(+25%)	(16) Le Fanu 9/1, 9/1, respectable eighth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (17.3f, good) 67 days ago. Deserves respect. No real impact in first three handicaps, only down 2lb, needs more to feature here.
5th	4 5th (4) (10/1 -67%) Jake Peter	10 10/1(-67%)	(4) Jake Peter 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2018. 22/1, tenth of 12 in handicap at Tramore (16.4f, good to soft) 42 days ago. Switches from Flat to hurdles. In good form when last seen in this sphere and should be on the premises. Placed on last three starts over hurdles, soft ground a concern, others preferred.
6th	8 6th (8) (10/1 +9%) Dark Image	10 10/1(+9%)	(8) Dark Image 10/1, Latest win in hurdle at Roscommon in June. Creditable sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at this C&D (good, 20/1) 6 days ago. Not ruled out. Both wins came on good ground, form figures on soft 6088, others are preferred.
7th	13 7th (13) (7/1 -27%) Toon Town	7 7/1(-27%)	(13) Toon Town 7/1, Winner in hurdle at Wexford in May. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (16.9f, good to soft, 11/1) 29 days ago. Enters calculations. First win over timber at Wexford in May, solid run off revised mark latest, can't discount.
8th	15 8th (15) (10/1 +17%) Ilbdare	10 10/1(+17%)	(15) Ilbdare 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Bit below form fifth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Galway (22.4f, good to soft, 12/1) 19 days ago. Others more persuasive. Relatively unexposed, promise in both handicaps, ground an unknown, chance if acts on it.
9th	2 9th (2) (14/1 -17%) Only A Dollar	14 14/1(-17%)	(2) Only A Dollar 14/1, Winner in hurdle at Clonmel in May. Respectable twelfth of 20 in handicap hurdle (25/1) at Galway (16.7f, good to soft) 19 days ago, left with lot to do. Not dismissed. Won maiden hurdle at Clonmel in May, best handicap effort at Galway latest, can't discount.
10th	6 10th (6) (7/1 +0%) Cosmic Rock	7 7/1(+0%)	(6) Cosmic Rock 7/1, Course winner. 17/2 and blinkered for 1st time, creditable third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (19f, heavy) 162 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Merits consideration. Off 162 days, ground versatile course winner has won fresh, looks the first-string, chance.
11th	17 11th (17) (33/1 -65%) Racing Daisy	33 33/1(-65%)	(17) Racing Daisy 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 16/1, eleventh of 15 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16.9f, good to soft) 85 days ago. Beaten 34l and 18.5l in first two handicaps, softer ground may help but hard to fancy.
12th	5 12th (5) (20/1 -67%) Cullagh Pride	20 20/1(-67%)	(5) Cullagh Pride 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Respectable third of 9 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (19f, soft, 4/1). Off 14 months. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Unlikely to be tuned up. Placed in three maiden hurdles, off 442 days and unproven on soft ground, watch.
13th	12 13th (12) (66/1 -100%) Deep Sigh	66 66/1(-100%)	(12) Deep Sigh 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Fair winner at 8f on flat. Fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle (125/1) at Bellewstown (17f, good to soft) 157 days ago. Uphill task. 0-4 over hurdles, hampered on handicap debut, probably best watched back from a break.
14th	7 14th (7) (14/1 +30%) Ixigreczed	14 14/1(+30%)	(7) Ixigreczed 14/1, Winner in hurdle at Kilbeggan in July. Ninth of 14 in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Wexford (20.4f, good to soft) 50 days ago. Needs to do more. Made all penultimate start, up 7lb and tailed off latest; soft a worry, others more likely.
15th	19 15th (19) (40/1 -21%) Red Night Sky	40 40/1(-21%)	(19) Red Night Sky 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 50/1, ninth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (22f, soft) 121 days ago. Tough to assess at present. RESERVE. Well-beaten on handicap bow, only down 2lb, hard to make a case for on form; reserve.
18	18 \|PU\| (18) (28/1 -133%) Duhallow Jury	28 28/1(-133%)	(18) Duhallow Jury 28/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 33/1, third of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Killarney (17f, good to soft) 139 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Plenty to find on form. Promise in maidens, opening mark looks fair, could improve on return from 139 days off.

Local trainer Eoin McCarthy is responsible for four of the 18 set to take part in this wide-open contest. His DARK IMAGE ran well to finish sixth in a slightly stronger contest over the course and distance on Sunday last, and she should get closer now with Calum Hogan claiming a valuable 7lb. McCarthy also saddles Aboy Joey, Spavango (declared on Friday) and course winner Cosmic Rock, with the latter last seen finishing third at Limerick in April. Top weight Dgalwaygallivantor won over fences at Downpatrick in May and will be well-fancied to follow-up, while six-time winner Jake Peter is another likely to have plenty of supporters. Returning from a lengthy absence, it'll be interesting to see how Cullagh Star fares, while fellow handicap debutants The Nagger Reidy and Duhallow Jury are others of note.

DGALWAYGALLIVANTOR has a solid hurdles record and showed improvement to score in a novice chase at Downpatrick last time. Back in this sphere, he's potentially thrown in, so he gets the nod over Cosmic Rock and Toon Town, who arrive in good order.

A chance is taken on ILBDARE in the hope that he acts on sof. He has shaped well in both handicaps and the drop in trip here may suit.

Off 7 months. Makes handicap chase debut. Thurles beginners' chase winner, off 219 days, could be well treated, worth a market check.

Career best when winning 14-runner handicap chase (12/1) at Killarney (20.8f, good to soft) 35 days ago, driven out.

Bit below form seventh of 18 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at Galway (22.5f, soft) 56 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Can make presence felt. Just denied in the Blazers on last chase start, handles soft ground, leading claims.
13	13 \|U\| (13) (20/1 +0%) King Ferdinand	20 20/1(+0%)	(13) King Ferdinand 20/1, Latest win in chase at Killarney in August. Ninth of 10 in handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, good to soft, 12/1) 19 days ago. Won off 9lb lower at Killarney, bombed out off revised mark on latest, others more likely.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (20/1 -25%) Embittered	20 20/1(-25%)	(2) Embittered 20/1, 50/1, respectable sixth of 17 in handicap chase at Punchestown (20.4f, good to soft) 150 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Gordon Elliott. Uphill task. Won a nice race at Navan last year for former yard, lost form since, watch on stable debut.

A case can be made for the vast majority of these, with handicap debutant LAW ELLA the suggestion. Successful on her first start over fences at Thurles last season, she went down by just three quarters of a length in Listed company when last seen at the Co Tipperary venue. Returning from a break now, a bold bid looks likely from the seven-year-old, with the trip and ground both in her favour. Second and third in the Galway Blazers, Moonovercloon and Flanking Maneuver are both likely to prove popular, with the latter starting off for Gordon Elliott and the Cheeky Pups Syndicate. Walnut Beach landed a valuable prize at Killarney last month and looks to have solid claims with Gary Noonan again claiming a valuable 5lb, while others of interest in this fiercely competitive affair are Watch The Weather, King Ferdinand and The Short Go.

FLANKING MANEUVER has returned to form with blinkers enlisted the last twice and, still on a potentially handy mark, he could be the answer on debut for the Gordon Elliott yard. Watch The Weather has been knocking on the door in recent months and he is likely to be on the premises once more. If all is well following a 219-day absence, Law Ella won't be far away and Walnut Beach is another with claims.

DONACHEADY GALE could go well off a feather-weight on ground he'll relish. He looks well-handicapped on the best of his chase form.

4	5 4th (5) (9/1 -157%) Avec Espoir	9 9/1(-157%)	(5) Avec Espoir 9/1, 13/2, much improved when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (22.4f, soft) 33 days ago, unchallenged. Switches from hurdles to chase. Has good chance on form. Wide-margin front-running winner over hurdles and fences this term; has to be respected.
5th	8 5th (8) (7/1 -133%) Aurea Fortuna	7 7/1(-133%)	(8) Aurea Fortuna 7/1, 50/1, first run since leaving Gerard Keane when below form sixth of 11 in novice chase at Roscommon (16.5f, soft) 53 days ago.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Ballinrobe (21.4f, good, 11/2) 144 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase.

Successful aboard Mica Malpic in 2022 and Harvey's Quay last year, Derek O'Connor now teams up with interesting handicap debutant AUREA FORTUNA. A half-brother to dual Grade 1 winner Battleoverdoyen, he ran his best race to date when sixth at Roscommon last month and still only five, there should be plenty more to come from the Mount Nelson chestnut. Second and third in this very contest 12 months ago, Galon De Vauzelle and Avec Espoir both look to have solid claims, with the latter sure to have plenty of supporters after easily winning two of his last three. Recent Killarney victor Meehall and the locally trained Kadys Dirha are others for the shortlist in this competitive affair.

MEEHALL upped his game and displayed a good attitude when scoring at Killarney last time and the bulk of his rivals have something to prove, so he gets the nod over Avec Espoir, who is a huge threat if able to replicate the form of his recent hurdling success.

Robinstown and AVEC ESPOIR like to get on with matters and could get away from the others early on. Preference is for the latter.

Second of 8 in bumper (7/2) at Ballinrobe (16.2f, good to soft) 15 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Makes plenty of appeal. Won at Cork and runner-up at Ballinrobe; can be involved if handling this softer ground.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 -113%) Addragoole	4 4/1(-113%)	(3) Addragoole 4/1, Twice-raced maiden under NH rules. Second of 8 in bumper (9/4) at Bellewstown (17f, good to soft) on bumper debut 157 days ago. Respected. Second in bumper and maiden hurdle in spring; yard in form; likely to go well on return.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 +18%) Black Heather	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(1) Black Heather 9/2, Career best when winning 15-runner bumper at Ballinrobe (15.5f, good, 16/1) 67 days ago, driven out. Penalty may be enough to stop him. Won at Ballinrobe in July over this trip; has handled testing ground before so be involved.
4	6 4th (6) (5/2 +69%) Heads Up	2.5 5/2(+69%)	(6) Heads Up 5/2, €40,000 3-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding. Dam, ran twice in bumpers, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stays 19f) The Russian Doyen. By a leading sire and cost 40,000euros as a 3yo; classy damline; worth a market check.
5th	4 5th (4) (9/1 +73%) Mellem	9 9/1(+73%)	(4) Mellem 9/1, French Navy gelding. Dam placed in bumpers/made frame over hurdles. By the sire of Marine Nationale but will have to be smart to take this on debut.

7th	8 7th (8) (22/1 -120%) Ad Caelum	22 22/1(-120%)	(8) Ad Caelum 22/1, Twice-raced maiden. 22/1, second of 16 in novice hurdle at Kilbeggan (20.1f, good) 118 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Back down in trip. Was a 6l runner-up in Kilbeggan maiden hurdle over 2m4f; has the pace to drop to this trip.

NOT NOW DARLING stands out after her comfortable debut success. A half-sister to the potentially high class Mozzies Sister, she readily stretched clear of her rivals on good ground at Killarney, with the likely testing conditions here a cause for concern. The ground is also an unknown for Cork victor Windbeneathmywings. A solid second on his latest start, another good effort looks likely from the Free Eagle chestnut. The Harry Kelly-trained Black Heather is the other winner in the line-up, but again the ground is a cause for concern. A runner-up on soft on debut at Down Royal, Addragoole went down by just half a length at Bellewstown in April. Not seen since, the Gavin Cromwell-trained five-year-old is of definite interest with Declan Lavery aboard.

Having made a winning start, WINDBENEATHMYWINGS probably bumped into one when second at Ballinrobe last time and, if he's in the same form, he can get back to winning ways here. Not Now Darling and Addragoole are also serious players.

Getting weight from Black Heather and Windbeneathmywings, ADDRAGOOLE(nap) can go one better than on his two previous starts.

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.
