1
1st (6) Restandbethankful ( )
Restandbethankful

()
(6) Restandbethankful , Good-ground bumper winner who shaped well when second of 16 on hurdles debut at Newbury in December. Tongue strap added back from a break and he should have more to offer.
2
2nd (5) Gold Link ( )
Gold Link

()
(5) Gold Link , Failed to make an impact on first 2 starts in this sphere, but left those efforts well behind when hitting the crossbar at Wincanton on first start following wind surgery. Remains open to improvement.
3
3rd (8) Tardree ( )
Tardree

()
(8) Tardree , Point winner who landed a Sedgefield bumper on second start under Rules. Hurdles debut at Catterick (19.3f, soft) in December wasn't devoid of promise and should do better back on better ground here.
4
4th (7) Seinesational ( )
Seinesational

()
(7) Seinesational , Useful handicapper on the Flat and didn't shape badly on hurdles debut for new yard at Ascot in March. Failed to progress at Kempton next time, though, and he probably needs a stiffer test.
5th
5th (3) Design Icon ( )
Design Icon

()
(3) Design Icon , Stepped up on inauspicious debut when fourth in a 6-runner Southwell novice at the end of March. Another step forward will be needed if he's to play a leading role here.
6th
6th (10) Translink ( )
Translink

()
(10) Translink , Fair form in bumpers, but hasn't made much of an impact in 2 starts since switched to hurdles and he'll be of greater interest in handicaps further down the line.
7th
7th (11) One Step Too Far ( )
One Step Too Far

()
(11) One Step Too Far , Fair maiden on the Flat and showed a bit more at second attempt in this sphere when sixth of 11 in 2m Wetherby maiden last month. Still, he's another who will probably do better in handicaps later on.
8th
8th (12) Miracle Eagle ( )
Miracle Eagle

()
(12) Miracle Eagle , Modest maiden on the Flat. Didn't shape at all badly on hurdles debut at Wetherby in November, but failed to build on that at Catterick a month later and absent since.
9th
9th (1) Algesiras ( )
Algesiras

()
(1) Algesiras , €68,000 3-y-o. Half-brother to ungenuine but fairly useful hurdler Castletown and fair chaser D'bru Na Boinne. Beaten a fair way when fourth on sole start between the flags in March.
10th
10th (4) Geonice ( )
Geonice

()
(4) Geonice , Bumper efforts towards end of last year weren't devoid of promise, but he'd gone with little encouragement prior to falling 3 out on his Wetherby hurdles bow in March.
11th
11th (2) Bob Pebble ( )
Bob Pebble

()
(2) Bob Pebble , Placed both starts in bumpers, but fell at the first on hurdles debut in August and well beaten at Fontwell the following month. Has undergone wind surgery ahead of this return/debut for new yard.
|PU|
|PU| (9) The Ragman ( )
The Ragman

()
(9) The Ragman , Little appeal on paper and probably best watched on debut.

Red Ochre

Harry The Norseman

()
(6) Harry The Norseman , Gained breakthrough win on back of wind op (tongue strap also on) in 15-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) 36 days ago, holding on gamely. In the mix despite 5 lb rise.

1st (1) Hats Off To Larry ( )
Hats Off To Larry

()
(1) Hats Off To Larry , Fairly useful Flat winner but has failed to take to hurdling, finishing a well-held fourth in 2m Perth handicap 15 days ago. This weaker again but he will need to step up on that latest run.
2
2nd (6) Danger Money ( )
Danger Money

()
(6) Danger Money , Fairly useful on the Flat in Ireland for Andrew Oliver. Hurdles efforts to date low key but it's possible he could prove a different proposition in handicaps.
3
3rd (3) Brickadank ( )
Brickadank

()
(3) Brickadank , Poor form, including a couple of handicaps this spring. Needs to find improvement.
4
4th (9) Jean Mary ( )

5th (7) Out By Six ( )
Out By Six

()
(7) Out By Six , Just glimmers of ability to date and pulled up on handicap bow at Exeter in November (sole start for Tom Symonds). New trainer had a winner the other day. Worth a precautionary market check.
6th
6th (4) Fast Deal ( )
Fast Deal

()
(4) Fast Deal , Regressive maiden on the Flat and no show in 3 hurdles starts. More chance now handicapping but still hard to make a case for.
7th
7th (10) Naasik ( )
Naasik

()
(10) Naasik , Remains a maiden after 24 starts. Respectable run from out of the handicap at Southwell 24 days ago but others are preferred for win purposes again.
8th
8th (2) Military Tactic ( )
Military Tactic

()
(2) Military Tactic , Fairly useful maiden at best on Flat for Saeed bin Suroor in 2019. Comfortably held in 3 qualifying runs over hurdles this spring but his form could take off in handicaps.
|PU|
|PU| (5) The Come Back Dude ( )

(5) Red Giant ( )
Red Giant

()
(5) Red Giant , Benefited no end from forcing tactics to spring a surprise at Sedgefield last October. Remained in form subsequently and looks a player if ready to go back from 4 months off.
(8) Dancing In The Sky ( )
Dancing In The Sky

()
(8) Dancing In The Sky , Fairly useful 20f chase winner who landed handicap at Perth (20.1f, soft) in September. Disappointing since but could return to form fresh from a 162-day break.
(2) Neville's Cross ( )
Neville's Cross

()
(2) Neville's Cross , Improved when bagging good-ground handicap hurdles at Uttoxeter and Hereford at the start of the season. Back on song at this course last time and he's the type to make a chaser.
(4) Larkbarrow Lad ( )
Larkbarrow Lad

()
(4) Larkbarrow Lad , Not the most straightforward and still to score in this sphere, just respectable third at Newbury 42 days ago. Others are more appealing for win purposes.
(3) Fingerontheswitch ( )
Fingerontheswitch

()
(3) Fingerontheswitch , Veteran who has been showing signs of decline lately, so others make more appeal for all he's sliding down the weights.
(6) The Vollan ( )
The Vollan

(6) The Vollan , Didn't take to chasing last year and hard to make a case for after a tame return to hurdling at Aintree recently.
(10) Compadre ( )
Compadre

()
(10) Compadre , Benefited from a return to this discipline when a smooth-travelling second at Haydock last month and has shown a liking for this track in the past, so he's one to consider.

()
(11) I Just Know , Useful chaser at best but without solid form for a good while.
1
1st (9) Forgot To Ask ( )
Forgot To Ask

()
(9) Forgot To Ask , Gained some reward for consistent efforts when landing a 3-runner event at Plumpton last time. This is much more competitive but he's expected to give another good account.
2
2nd (7) As You Like ( )
As You Like

()
(7) As You Like , Tends to peak during the summer and showed clear signs of a revival when third at Southwell 24 days ago, not having a hard time. Should take the beating if strong in the betting.

Royal Village

()
(1) Royal Village , Below best for Ian Williams last year and pulled up on debut for current yard when last seen 161 days ago. Something to prove.

(4) Teescomponents Lad ( )
Teescomponents Lad

(4) Teescomponents Lad , Back to winning ways over C&D last November. Acquitted himself well in defeat next 2 starts but he does need to shrug off lesser efforts the last twice. Blinkers refitted.
(3) The Golden Rebel ( )
The Golden Rebel

()
(3) The Golden Rebel , Won his last 2 starts in points and belied a big price when scoring by a wide-margin on Doncaster hurdle debut (21f) in January. Only fifth over 3m at Musselburgh since but unexposed now handicapping.
(7) Ashfield Paddy ( )
Ashfield Paddy

()
(7) Ashfield Paddy , Didn't take to chasing last autumn but career back on track returned to hurdles this year, bumping into a well-handicapped sort when second at Carlisle latest.
(2) Glinger Flame ( )
Glinger Flame

()
(2) Glinger Flame , Can look a little ungainly on occasions but his strike-rate can't be knocked, winning again over 2½m Hexham last autumn. Off since a lesser run at Aintree in December. Capable of bouncing back.
(6) Gunfleet ( )
Gunfleet

()
(6) Gunfleet , Useful hurdler at his best but not seen since November 2019 so peak fitness has to be taken on trust. Betting perhaps the best pointer to what's expected.
1
1st (5) Regarding Ruth ( )
Regarding Ruth

()
(5) Regarding Ruth , Building up a good record away from the mud and found some improvement to resume winning ways over 3m at Newbury in March. Not seen to best effect over 2½m latest and this more suitable.
2
2nd (1) Ballyhome ( )
Ballyhome

2
2nd (2) San Agustin ( )

(1) Dallas Cowboy ( )

2
2nd (2) Counteract ( )

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.
