1	9 1st (9) (5/2 +58%) Charming Getaway		2.5 5/2(+58%)																															(9) Charming Getaway 5/2, Best run since returning from absence for new yard when neck second of 16 to the reopposing Brockarno over 19.5f at Doncaster (good to soft) 34 days ago. His strong finish on that occasion suggests today's extra yardage will help. Another to consider. Neck second of 16 to Brockarno at Doncaster last month; could be thereabouts once more.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/2 +72%) Passing Pleasure		4.5 9/2(+72%)																															(4) Passing Pleasure 9/2, Runner-up on last of 3 starts in Irish points. Bit of promise in 3 qualifying runs over 2m in December and January and rates a potential improver now handicapping up in trip. 3m point runner-up who is open to improvement now up in trip on h'cap debut; interesting.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +36%) Churchman		9 9/1(+36%)																															(8) Churchman 9/1, Still a maiden and beaten 18 lengths when fourth of 9 over 2½m at Uttoxeter (heavy) 19 days ago. Others are more obvious. Well handicapped on last February's course form but he hasn't shone this winter.
4	1 4th (1) (11/1 -267%) Hellfire Princess		11 11/1(-267%)																															(1) Hellfire Princess 11/1, Bumper/hurdle winner at Hereford. Another good run at Hereford when narrowly denied on 2¾m reappearance 15 days ago, although she likely would have won but for idling. Player if coping with a second outing in fairly quick succession after an absence. Went close at Hereford recently; major player if avoiding the bounce on second start back.
5th	2 5th (2) (4/1 +43%) Entity Of Substanz		4 4/1(+43%)																															(2) Entity Of Substanz 4/1, Lightly-raced sort who ran best race so far under a positive ride in first-time cheekpieces when second of 8 in 23f Market Rasen handicap in December. Faded over 3m on heavy ground at Wetherby since and this drop back in trip could be a good move. Runner-up at Market Rasen on second handicap start; needs to prove himself on soft ground.
6th	7 6th (7) (11/1 -230%) Tom Taggle		11 11/1(-230%)																															(7) Tom Taggle 11/1, Couldn't justify market support on 19f Taunton handicap debut 23 days ago, finishing 16 lengths fourth of 10, but evidently thought capable of better and today's longer trip could suit. Interesting runner, particularly if there's money for him again. Soundly beaten fourth on handicap debut but well backed and today's extra yardage can suit.
7th	6 7th (6) (20/1 -67%) Pottlerath		20 20/1(-67%)																															(6) Pottlerath 20/1, Completed a chase hat-trick at the start of summer 2023 but not at his best in 2024. Given a chance by the handicapper as a result but best watched on return from 6 months off unless the betting suggests otherwise. Also minus usual cheekpieces. Ran okay last August when last seen but may be best watched on his return to action.
8th	5 8th (5) (11/2 +8%) Brockarno		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(5) Brockarno 11/2, Much improved when springing a 40/1 surprise in 19.5f Doncaster novice handicap 34 days ago, getting up towards the finish to beat the reopposing Charming Getaway by a neck. That suggests this longer trip should suit. Likely to go well. 40-1 win at Doncaster on second h'cap start; solid claims if backing up that performance.
3	3 |PU| (3) (25/1 -79%) Bits N Pieces		25 25/1(-79%)																															(3) Bits N Pieces 25/1, Reached the frame in 2 qualifying runs this autumn but made a disappointing start to his handicap career over 3m here in December. Back down in trip now. Lightly raced 5yo but he was pulled up on handicap debut here in December.

17:23 Ludlow Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Runner-up at Uttoxeter last time in a contest that has worked out well since, PORT OR STARBOARD looks the one to beat off a mark 2lb lower than his sole victory to date. Back to form with a creditable second at Sandown most recently, Snapius looks to be a key threat, as well as Zucayan, who wasn't beaten far over further at Taunton earlier in the month.

The suggestion is WISE GUY, who is well handicapped if a recent breathing operation has had a positive effect, particularly if Callum Pritchard's 3 lb claim is taken into account. Zucayan, a dual C&D winner, the reliable Port Or Starboard and James Owen's Snapius may provide the main opposition.

Wind surgery could prompt a revival from WISE GUY who is well handicapped on his progressive form in early 2024.

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.
