15:57 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (11/1 +21%) Yakhabar	11 11/1(+21%)	(5) Yakhabar 11/1, Ended last season with a below-par effort when fifth of 6 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, good to firm, 7/1) in August. Has eased further in the weights as a result, but has 6-month absence to overcome. Some promise in his early handicaps but progress stalled and now 0-12; off 192 days.
2	2 2nd (2) (9/2 -13%) Desert Quest	4.5 9/2(-13%)	(2) Desert Quest 9/2, C&D winner in January and shaped as if still in good form when fourth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f, 15/2) a week later, not ideally placed. Could be thereabouts once more. First AW win over C&D last month; only fourth at Southwell since but respected back here.
3	7 3rd (7) (15/2 +17%) Bristol Hill	7.5 15/2(+17%)	(7) Bristol Hill 15/2, C&D winner. Again raced freely when sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 10/1) 22 days ago. On a workable mark but he needs everything to drop right. C&D winner last March; recent runs no more than respectable but back on good mark.
4	3 4th (3) (11/4 -38%) Louisiana Bay	2.75 11/4(-38%)	(3) Louisiana Bay 11/4, Shaped well when fourth of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (13f, 9/2) 12 days ago, closest at the line having met trouble. Could be ready to open her account. Placed three times this winter and shaped as if still in form latest; player.
5th	1 5th (1) (4/1 -33%) Rose Light	4 4/1(-33%)	(1) Rose Light 4/1, Off the mark at Southwell in January. Run best excused when sixth of 7 in handicap at this C&D (11/4) 4 days ago, needing stronger gallop/not ideally positioned. Enters calculations back down in grade. Won at Southwell last month but only sixth over C&D on Tuesday.
6th	10 6th (10) (66/1 -164%) Broctune Azure	66 66/1(-164%)	(10) Broctune Azure 66/1, After 16 months off, probably needed the run when seventh of 9 in minor event at this course (10.2f, 18/1) 23 days ago. Has work to do as she goes up in trip. Entitled to strip fitter for recent outing after absence but others still more obvious.
7th	9 7th (9) (10/3 +76%) Crazy Crackers	3.333333 10/3(+76%)	(9) Crazy Crackers 10/3, Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (16/1) at Southwell (16.5f) 12 days ago. Needs to find more as he drops back in distance. Low mileage but unable to make significant impact over 1m6f/2m at Southwell recently.
8th	4 8th (4) (150/1 -200%) Best Guess	150 150/1(-200%)	(4) Best Guess 150/1, After showing little in a couple of starts over hurdles, fared no better back on the Flat (had a wind op) when last of 7 in handicap at this C&D (125/1) 21 days ago. Application of blinkers not enough to tempt. Struggled since finishing third on stable debut in September; blinkers on now.
9th	6 9th (6) (12/1 -50%) Sarkha	12 12/1(-50%)	(6) Sarkha 12/1, Below form when eighth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (12f, 13/2) 66 days ago. However, had run well at this C&D on his previous outing, so he's not discounted having had a wind op since last time. Best for yard when third over C&D in November; excuses next time; claims back from wind op.
10th	8 10th (8) (66/1 -371%) Femme Patronne	66 66/1(-371%)	(8) Femme Patronne 66/1, Failed to repeat her previous effort when 14½ lengths tenth of 11 to Rose Light in handicap at Southwell (11.1f, 25/1) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Second over 1m2f here last month but well behind Rose Light at Southwell since.

15:57 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A winner over 1m3f at Southwell, Rose Light commands respect despite her subsequent defeat here earlier in the week, while Louisiana Bay is effective over this sort of trip and cannot be ruled out with Grace McEntee claiming 3lb. However, DESERT QUEST, who was a surprise winner in an apprentice handicap over C&D prior to a solid Southwell fourth, shades preference.

LOUISIANA BAY looked unlucky not to finish closer still when fourth at Lingfield last time, nearest at the finish having been short of room in the last ½f, so she can build on that effort to get off the mark this time around. The main danger could be Rose Light, who had excuses for her run here 4 days ago, with Desert Quest also considered.

There's been enough from LOUISIANA BAY this winter to think she can win before long.

16:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (3/1 +50%) Mulciber	3 3/1(+50%)	(5) Mulciber 3/1, Lightly-raced winner. Winner here in November. Respectable eighth of 14 in nursery (4/1) at Kempton (8f) 59 days ago, running on. Well bred sort shouldn't be ruled out. 7f winner here in November; off since lesser run in December; no headgear today.
2	6 2nd (6) (11/4 +0%) Redondo	2.75 11/4(+0%)	(6) Redondo 11/4, First run since leaving Josh Halley when 5/1, career best when readily winning 8-runner handicap at this C&D 15 days ago by 1½ lengths from Likleman, suited by way race developed. Up 6 lb but likely to progress further. Big step forward when easily winning over C&D on stable/h'cap debut; up 6lb in better race.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/4 +45%) Likeashadow	2.75 11/4(+45%)	(3) Likeashadow 11/4, C&D winner. 9/2, creditable third of 7 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago. Expected to be bang there from unchanged mark. Two course wins last year & banging at the door in 2024; in the thick of it once again.
4	2 4th (2) (9/1 -157%) Love Yours	9 9/1(-157%)	(2) Love Yours 9/1, 8/1, very good second of 5 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago, suited by way race developed. Can make presence felt if able to back that up. Good 2nd over C&D 15 days ago; drops in class and unexposed as a miler.
5th	7 5th (7) (15/2 -25%) Likleman	7.5 15/2(-25%)	(7) Likleman 15/2, Another good effort when 1½ lengths second of 8 to Redondo in handicap at this C&D (3/1) 15 days ago, suited by way race developed. Sound claims again. Exposed maiden but he's finished second over C&D in both runs since a wind op; needs more.
6th	1 6th (1) (33/1 -32%) Capla Mojo	33 33/1(-32%)	(1) Capla Mojo 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 22/1, last of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 29 days ago. More needed on handicap bow. Promise on debut but yet to build on it; makes h'cap debut at a realistic level.
7th	4 7th (4) (6/1 -50%) Bella Umbria	6 6/1(-50%)	(4) Bella Umbria 6/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in minor event (22/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 67 days ago, not knocked about. Could do better now handicapping with step up in trip likely to suit. Well-bred filly who appeals as a likely big improver upped in trip and handicapping.
8th	8 8th (8) (100/1 -150%) On The Bubble	100 100/1(-150%)	(8) On The Bubble 100/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at this course (7.1f). Off 95 days. Makes handicap debut. Limited appeal. This is her handicap debut but she'll need to leave her 2yo efforts well behind her.

16:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Recent C&D winner Redondo, along with Likeashadow and Likleman, arrives in good form, but LOVE YOURS shades preference. The Gemma Tutty-trained filly is still learning her trade, but was only a head behind a now 74-rated rival over this C&D latest, admittedly in receipt of weight. Given the winner has gone in again since, the daughter of Invincible Spirit may be underestimated from a rating of just 63, for what is only her second attempt at a mile.

REDONDO made a winning start for this yard over C&D last time and he looks capable of better again, so gets the nod to follow up. Likeashadow has built up a respectable record over C&D and is another player, with Likleman also meriting respect.

Redondo is respected after an easy C&D win two weeks ago but BELLA UMBRIA is expected to leave her earlier efforts well behind.

17:00 Newcastle Stakes (Class 4) 8f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	2 1st (2) (16/1 -129%) Alpine Oasis	16 16/1(-129%)	(2) Alpine Oasis 16/1, Oasis Dream filly. Some encouragement when fifth of 9 in maiden (18/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut 11 days ago, not knocked about after running green. Probably has her work cut out with the favourite but solid claims for second. Promise on debut but work to do with Alhattan on a line through the winner.
2	1 2nd (1) (1/4 +17%) Alhattan	0.25 1/4(+17%)	(1) Alhattan 1/4, Lope De Vega filly looked a useful prospect when overcoming greenness to win 9-runner maiden (8/13) at this C&D on debut 29 days ago. Very hard to oppose. Green but ultimately won easily over C&D on last month's debut; open to plenty of progress.
3	4 3rd (4) (14/1 -87%) Miss Alpilles	14 14/1(-87%)	(4) Miss Alpilles 14/1, 200,000 gns yearling, Sea The Stars filly. Dam, 1m-1½m winner, half-sister to useful winner up to 1¼m Alla Speranza out of useful 1m-10.5f winner Alvarita. Appealing middle distance pedigree and she could prove above average. 200,000gns yearling; paper claims but apprentice-ridden and has a good standard to aim at.
4	3 4th (3) (100/1 -25%) Little Venice	100 100/1(-25%)	(3) Little Venice 100/1, Cityscape filly. Tenth of 11 in minor event at this C&D (125/1) 13 days ago. Will be of more interest in handicaps. Over 8l behind Alhattan on debut; beaten further last time; minor handicaps beckon.
5th	5 5th (5) (9/2 +31%) Rasmah	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(5) Rasmah 9/2, Night of Thunder filly. Half-sister to winner abroad by Ardad. Dam twice-raced sister to smart winner up to 7f Ride Like The Wind. Yard's newcomers always worth market check. Half-sis to 1m winner in Italy; yard have winning newcomers but useful standard to aim at.

17:00 Newcastle Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

A comfortable three-length winner when odds-on for her debut over C&D, ALHATTAN is hard to oppose in her bid for a follow-up success. George Boughey's filly, whose dam won a Listed race as a three-year-old, is probably destined for a rise in class when she goes handicapping and is fancied to be too precocious for potential improver Alpine Oasis at this stage. Heed the market signals where newcomers Rasmah and Miss Alpilles are concerned.

ALHATTAN is impossible to oppose after a taking debut over C&D last month. Newcomers Miss Alpilles and Rasmah both make some appeal on paper but would surely have to be well above average to get the better of the selection.

Alpine Oasis can step up on her debut effort but ALHATTAN looked a smart prospect on her debut and she can follow up.

17:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 7f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (9/1 -38%) Star Zinc	9 9/1(-38%)	(5) Star Zinc 9/1, Latest win at this C&D in November. Quickly back on track when 1¼ lengths second of 12 to the reopposing Bobby Joe Leg in handicap (9/2) here 15 days ago. Can give another good account. Conditions to suit and on handy mark but this free-going sort may not want a tactical race.
2	2 2nd (2) (8/11 +64%) Smoky Mountain	0.727273 8/11(+64%)	(2) Smoky Mountain 8/11, Doubled his tally when scoring at Wolverhampton in January and again ran well when second of 13 in handicap (9/4) at Southwell (8.1f) 18 days ago. Major player for in-form yard. Unexposed and improving; return to 7f in his favour and he holds obvious claims.
3	3 3rd (3) (17/2 -113%) Beelzebub	8.5 17/2(-113%)	(3) Beelzebub 17/2, In first-time hood, bounced back to his best when winning 7-runner handicap (6/1) at this C&D 29 days ago. Up in grade but it still remains early days with his current yard. Has to be taken seriously. Always prominent when winning over C&D four weeks ago; unexposed at 7f; 4lb rise fair.
4	4 4th (4) (16/1 -78%) Kalganov	16 16/1(-78%)	(4) Kalganov 16/1, Three wins from 15 runs last year, including at this C&D in December. Not discredited when fourth of 8 in handicap (9/2) back here 23 days ago. More needed. C&D winner in December; fair efforts the last twice but more needed to come out on top.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 -50%) Admiral D	4.5 9/2(-50%)	(1) Admiral D 9/2, Ended long losing run at Kempton in November. Soon back to form when second of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (6f, 4/1) 27 days ago. Capable of getting involved back down in grade. Went close off this mark last month but still to totally convince over 7f.
6th	6 6th (6) (9/1 -38%) Bobby Joe Leg	9 9/1(-38%)	(6) Bobby Joe Leg 9/1, Has proved better than ever this year, completing 4-timer in 12-runner handicap (7/1) at this C&D 15 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Star Zinc, bit in hand. Respected in his current form. Thriving veteran who has conditions to suit; should make another bold bid.

17:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

The veteran Bobby Joe Leg completed an excellent four-timer when winning over C&D 15 days ago, but this is more demanding. With that in mind, preference is for the much less exposed SMOKY MOUNTAIN, who can go one better having been narrowly denied in a stronger event at Southwell last time out. Beelzebub appeals most of the remainder, although Admiral D would not be without a chance if seeing out the extra furlong.

SMOKY MOUNTAIN has been going the right way this winter, edged out only on the line at Southwell 18 days ago, so he is taken to resume winning ways with the potential of more still to come. Beelzebub made his second start for Alice Haynes a winning one at this C&D last month and isn't taken lightly, while Bobby Joe Leg can go well once more.

Bobby Joe Leg should go well again but SMOKY MOUNTAIN (nap) can take another step up the handicapping ladder.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (10/3 +33%) Noble Order	3.333333 10/3(+33%)	(1) Noble Order 10/3, Lightly-raced winner. Bit below form third of 10 in handicap (4/7) at Kempton (8f), needing stronger gallop. Off 15 months ahead of this debut for new yard and he merits consideration. Sold by Godolphin for 16,000gns last October; absent 456 days; looked promising early on.
2	5 2nd (5) (7/1 -100%) Dingle	7 7/1(-100%)	(5) Dingle 7/1, Didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap (4/1) at this C&D 32 days ago by ½ length from Oliver Show. Meets the latter on 1 lb better terms and another bold show anticipated. Beat Oliver Show over C&D last month & 1lb better off today; not sure to confirm placings.
3	12 3rd (12) (12/1 -20%) Enola Grey	12 12/1(-20%)	(12) Enola Grey 12/1, Dual C&D winner in December. Respectable fifth of 12 in handicap back here (7.1f, 6/1) 4 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Minor place money possible back at her optimum trip. Slow-starter; two C&D wins in December but the handicapper looks to have caught up now.
4	10 4th (10) (7/1 +42%) Hale End	7 7/1(+42%)	(10) Hale End 7/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 11/1, respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 8 days ago, left poorly placed. Not without each-way hope. C&D winner in Class 5 last month; held in Class 4s the last twice; others appeal more.
5th	8 5th (8) (150/1 -355%) Gainsbourg	150 150/1(-355%)	(8) Gainsbourg 150/1, Respectable seventh of 12 in novice hurdle (40/1) at Musselburgh (15.6f, good to soft) 101 days ago. Latest effort in this sphere was poor and he's probably worth taking on. Two wins in blinkers at Ayr last summer; no show over hurdles when last seen; others safer.
6th	9 6th (9) (28/1 -75%) Crownthorpe	28 28/1(-75%)	(9) Crownthorpe 28/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 10 runs last year. Seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 20/1) 59 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Conditions to suit but suspicion he'll remain vulnerable to less-exposed rivals.
7th	11 7th (11) (28/1 -180%) Trais Fluors	28 28/1(-180%)	(11) Trais Fluors 28/1, 12/1, won 9-runner handicap at this C&D 26 days ago, suited by way race developed. Circumstances may not be so favourable this time and 3 lb rise could be enough to stop him in his tracks. Five runs for this yard, all over C&D, winning twice; should remain competitive.
8th	7 8th (7) (10/1 -25%) Hortzadar	10 10/1(-25%)	(7) Hortzadar 10/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in November. 6/1, creditable length fourth of 9 to Trais Fluors in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. Place possibilities. C&D winner in November and he's run well in defeat since; should make another bold bid.
9th	3 9th (3) (9/1 +25%) Titan Rock	9 9/1(+25%)	(3) Titan Rock 9/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap at Chelmsford City (8f, 11/1) 27 days ago, met some trouble. Likely to find one or two too good. Had an excuse at Chelmsford last time; has the ability to play a big role off this mark.
10th	2 10th (2) (8/1 +33%) Qaasid	8 8/1(+33%)	(2) Qaasid 8/1, Course winner. 15/2, tenth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (11.1f) 30 days ago. Down in trip and others are more persuasive. Sharper for last month's reappearance; chance on last winter's best; drops in trip today.
11th	4 11th (4) (3/1 +0%) Oliver Show	3 3/1(+0%)	(4) Oliver Show 3/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at this course (7.1f, 13/2) 13 days ago, driven out. 2 lb nudge fair enough and he should have a part to play. Near miss over C&D before snug 7f win latest; 2lb rise fair; could yet rank higher.
12th	6 12th (6) (28/1 -75%) Afterwards	28 28/1(-75%)	(6) Afterwards 28/1, Lightly-raced winner. C&D winner. Sixth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 11/2) 43 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Something to find on form. C&D winner last March; unplaced in two handicaps and needs a career best to take this.

18:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Having been touched off by Dingle on his penultimate outing, Oliver Show recorded a triumph of his own over 7f here recently. The pair have to feature prominently in calculations again, but TRAIS FLUORS shades preference. Linda Perratt's 10-year-old proved he retains plenty of enthusiasm when successful over C&D and although now 3lb higher, that shouldn't prevent him from mounting another stern challenge.

DINGLE regained the winning thread when proving ½-length too strong for Oliver Show over C&D last month and he looks capable of defying a 2 lb rise in the weights. The latter went one better here next time and should be in the mix once again but Dingle may have most to fear from Noble Order, who showed plenty of promise in his four starts for Charlie Appleby and is of interest on debut for new connections, despite the lengthy absence.

Titan Rock is seriously considered but OLIVER SHOW is on the up and can reverse last month's C&D placings with Dingle.

1	3 1st (3) (5/2 +0%) He's An Angel	2.5 5/2(+0%)	(3) He's An Angel 5/2, 8/13, didn't need to improve to win 6-runner handicap at Lingfield (5f, AW) 22 days ago. 5 lb rise tolerable and this in-form 4-y-o should be in the thick of things once more. 3-4 for new yard & overcame adversity to score over 5f last time; leading contender again.
2	7 2nd (7) (7/1 -8%) Hurt You Never	7 7/1(-8%)	(7) Hurt You Never 7/1, Five wins from 14 runs last year. Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (33/1) at this course (5f) 21 days ago. 2 lb rise fair enough and she has to enter calculations. Returned from break to win 5f handicap here last month; should remain competitive.
3	4 3rd (4) (11/4 +66%) Westmorian	2.75 11/4(+66%)	(4) Westmorian 11/4, C&D winner. 7/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 23 days ago. Opposable. Not fired in two runs back from a break but he's down to a good mark; type to revive soon.
4	9 4th (9) (10/1 +29%) Ramon Di Loria	10 10/1(+29%)	(9) Ramon Di Loria 10/1, Course winner. Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 12/1, sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 12 days ago. Others make more appeal from a win perspective. Wins his share and back to his last winning mark; others have more pressing claims though.
5th	2 5th (2) (7/1 +42%) Ballyare	7 7/1(+42%)	(2) Ballyare 7/1, Course winner. Seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D (33/1) 32 days ago, doing too much too soon. Given a chance by the assessor but others make more appeal all the same. Down to a good mark but this looks a competitive race for the grade.
6th	10 6th (10) (4/1 +50%) Rory	4 4/1(+50%)	(10) Rory 4/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 8/1) 15 days ago, never nearer. Possibilities if on a going day. C&D winner in December; has remained in form since; yard also run Bonito Cavalo.
7th	5 7th (5) (22/1 +45%) Naaser	22 22/1(+45%)	(5) Naaser 22/1, 28/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 30 days ago. Readily passed over. Yet to shine for this yard and comes here with too much to prove for comfort.
8th	8 8th (8) (66/1 -65%) Pub Talk	66 66/1(-65%)	(8) Pub Talk 66/1, Last of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 66/1) 14 days ago. Best to look elsewhere. No impact at huge prices in two runs for new yard this year.

18:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

There has been no stopping BONITO CAVALO at this venue of late, with Jim Goldie's gelding completing a five-timer, despite finding trouble passing the two-furlong pole, in a handicap over the minimum trip. He is hard to oppose in his current vein of form and gets the nod over He's An Angel, who bids to extended a winning run of his own. Rory and Hurt You Never are just two others to consider.

BONITO CAVALO and He's An Angel are both going great guns and look set to fight out the finish. Marginal preference is for the former, who has predictably shot up the weights after winning five on the bounce but he clearly goes well here and probably has more to offer. Hurt You Never and Rory can do battle for minor honours.

Bonito Cavalo and HE'S AN ANGEL have recorded eight wins between them already this year. The latter is marginally preferred here.

Good third of 9 in handicap (5/2) at this course (8f) 29 days ago, slowly away and making his challenge widest of all. Has to be taken seriously nudged up 1 lb.

19:00 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

RICH WATERS produced a much better display to go down by a neck over C&D earlier in the month and he has only been put up 1lb for that effort. If the son of Showcasing can back the performance up, he could finally record his first victory since switching to the Grant Tuer stable. Concert Boy, who finished a close-up third over a mile here last month, needs to be considered off a 1lb higher rating. Dual course winner Danielsflyer is another to note.

CONCERT BOY wasn't seen to best effect but still came in a good third here last time out so is fancied to bag a second C&D success off just a 1 lb higher mark. Rich Waters arrives on a long losing run yet still rates the chief threat ahead of in-form duo Jems Bond and One Last Hug.

A trappy event but CONCERT BOY looked ready to strike here last time and can record a second C&D success. Rich Waters is next best.

Merits consideration. Mixed bag overall but this could be run to suit & she's capable on her day; shortlisted.
3	8 3rd (8) (4/1 +20%) Global Humor	4 4/1(+20%)	(8) Global Humor 4/1, Unreliable sort but he improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner minor event at this course (6f) 4 days ago.

4	3 4th (3) (11/8 +45%) Eleven Eleven	1.375 11/8(+45%)	(3) Eleven Eleven 11/8, 4-time course winner who stuck to his task well when landing 10-runner handicap at this C&D (9/2) 9 days ago.

19:30 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Turbo Command has been in the top two at Southwell on his last couple of starts and remains on the same mark as his latest second. However, TO THE BAR wasn't disgraced when fifth at Wolverhampton earlier in the month and the handicapper has given him a chance by dropping him a further 2lb. Alice Haynes' gelding competes off his lowest ever career figure and gets the vote. Last week's C&D winner Eleven Eleven holds an obvious chance too.

ELEVEN ELEVEN showed a good attitude when going in over C&D last week and this multiple course scorer can defy a 2 lb rise in the weights at the chief expense of Southwell runner-up Turbo Command. Angel Amadea also arrives in good nick and needs factoring in too.

This could be run to suit ANGEL AMADEA and she's tentatively preferred to Global Humor and Turbo Command.

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.
