1	6 1st (6) (1.88/1 +16%) Ramo		1.88 1.88/1(+16%)																															(6) Ramo 1.88/1, Runner-up in a 4-y-o hurdle on sole start in France (fair form) and gradually found his feet for present yard, justifying good support to open his account (with bit in hand) at Plumpton (25f) in March. Rider's claim off-sets rise in weights and he's worth considering again.
2	3 2nd (3) (14/1 -100%) Premier D'troice		14 14/1(-100%)																															(3) Premier D'troice 14/1, Capitalised on a much-reduced mark when landing a Uttoxeter handicap chase (26f) last June. Largely below that level this winter but bit more like it having eased again in weights when third at Taunton (28.4f) in March. Returns to timber now.
3	4 3rd (4) (3.5/1 -17%) Barrier Peaks		3.5 3.5/1(-17%)																															(4) Barrier Peaks 3.5/1, 7-y-o whose form has taken off since going up in trip in handicaps this year, completing 4-timer with good bit to spare at Uttoxeter (20f) in February. Latest second at Chepstow was another solid effort and no surprise to see him feature again despite career-high mark.
4	1 4th (1) (2.5/1 +25%) Iberio		2.5 2.5/1(+25%)																															(1) Iberio 2.5/1, Bumper winner who has improved over hurdles equipped with cheekpieces, winning with any amount in hand in 4-runner Taunton handicap (23.9f) 9 days ago. That was a weak race
5th	5 5th (5) (10/1 +60%) Bobo Mac		10 10/1(+60%)																															(5) Bobo Mac 10/1, Veteran who was useful at his best and confirmed he still has plenty to offer when scoring readily at Chepstow (23.6f) in November. Hasn't been able to reproduce that effort in 3 subsequent starts but connections now reach for the visor which could perk him up.
6th	7 6th (7) (80/1 -142%) Itsaboutime		80 80/1(-142%)																															(7) Itsaboutime 80/1, Caused a shock when making a winning return from lengthy absence in Exeter handicap back in spring 2021 but seen only twice since and he finished well held back from 10 months off at Fontwell (25.7f) in March. No easy task on from out of weights here.
2	2 |PU| (2) (7/1 -27%) Carlow Farmer		7 7/1(-27%)																															(2) Carlow Farmer 7/1, Displayed more positive signs when third at Fontwell (25.7f) on his penultimate start and duly confirmed as much when grinding it out from the front at Uttoxeter (23.3f, heavy) 7 days ago, tackled from 3 out and finding extra. Conditions fine but not sure to be in same form here.

LTO Selection:

14:50 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

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

A host of in-form rivals head to post in what looks an open contest, with marginal preference is for IBERIO. The six-year-old bolted up at Taunton last week and though it wasn't much of a race, his ability to handle testing conditions could give him the upper hand. Ramo essentially runs off the same mark as for his recent Plumpton success, when factoring in Ned Fox's 7lb claim, and he looks set to go well again. Barrier Peaks has been highly progressive this season and may not be done with just yet.

RAMO justified good support when opening his account for the Venetia Williams stable at Plumpton 26 days ago, and with potential for better still over staying trips, he earns the vote to follow up. That said, Barrier Peaks has thrived himself in handicaps and is feared, along with top-weight Iberio.

Nothing appeals more than the unexposed RAMO (nap), who should have plenty more to offer.

1	7 1st (7) (11/1 +0%) Fox Pro		11 11/1(+0%)																															(7) Fox Pro 11/1, Failed to build on comeback third after a long absence when last of 3 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f, good) 43 days ago. It's now sixteen runs since his last win in 2019.
2	4 2nd (4) (3.5/1 +30%) Nocte Volatus		3.5 3.5/1(+30%)																															(4) Nocte Volatus 3.5/1, Three-time 2m4f chase winner last term and in good nick this season, fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Sandown (20f, soft) 28 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up.
3	3 3rd (3) (6/1 +20%) Knight In Dubai		6 6/1(+20%)																															(3) Knight In Dubai 6/1, Useful hurdler/chaser but he's not proving the easiest to catch right this term, remote fourth in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, good to soft) 43 days ago. Winless since 2019.
4	2 4th (2) (3/1 -140%) Le Ligerien		3 3/1(-140%)																															(2) Le Ligerien 3/1, Hasn't looked back since having breathing surgery and switching yards this term, cosily completing his hat-trick in 2m Newbury handicap last month. Up another 7 lb but veteran is still the one to beat.
5th	6 5th (6) (9/1 +0%) Mister Watson		9 9/1(+0%)																															(6) Mister Watson 9/1, Inconsistent over hurdles and he followed his 2m4f maiden chase win at Warwick with poor effort at Uttoxeter three weeks ago. Needs to get back on track.
5	5 |PU| (5) (3.33/1 +49%) Foxboro		3.33 3.33/1(+49%)																															(5) Foxboro 3.33/1, Bounced back to his best in 8-runner handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f, soft) 15 days ago. He needs to back it up now off a 6 lb higher mark.
1	1 |PU| (1) (7.5/1 +46%) Iceo Madrik		7.5 7.5/1(+46%)																															(1) Iceo Madrik 7.5/1, Useful chaser in France for David Cottin but he offered little on his yard debut when pulled up in Ultima at Cheltenham 25 days ago. This is easier but he still has something to prove.

LTO Selection:

15:25 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 3) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

LE LIGERIEN has been a revelation since joining the Joe Tizzard yard and the step up in trip should not inconvenience him as he attempts to bring up the four-timer on ground he relishes. Iceo Madrik didn't cut much ice on his UK debut in the Ultima at the Cheltenham Festival, but better can be expected now. Foxboro is another leading contender on the back of a determined success at Newbury last month.

LE LIGERIEN has thrived under the tutelage of Joe Tizzard and a 7 lb rise for his cosy Newbury success doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from bagging a four-timer here. Nocte Volatus continues to run well and rates a solid place prospect ahead of recent Newbury scorer Foxboro.

Although this trip asks a question of him, it is still worth siding with LE LIGERIEN again.

Returns to maiden company here and will be hard to beat.
2	5 2nd (5) (8/1 -23%) Knowwhentoholdem		8 8/1(-23%)																															(5) Knowwhentoholdem 8/1, Fairly useful 17f bumper winner who shaped with some encouragement, after 16 months off, when third in novice at Exeter (16.7f, good to soft) on hurdles bow last month. Not in same form at Ascot since but it's still early days in this sphere.
3	1 3rd (1) (8/1 +84%) Bampton Star		8 8/1(+84%)																															(1) Bampton Star 8/1, No impact in a trio of hurdles outings thus far, going in snatches when fifth of 12 in novice at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) latest.

6th	6 6th (6) (7/1 -56%) Red Notice		7 7/1(-56%)																															(6) Red Notice 7/1, £42,000 3-y-o: first foal: dam little impact in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Ericht and useful bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler (2m winner) Celtic Folklore. Won final start between the flags in February and warrants respect on NH debut for new yard.
7th	3 7th (3) (33/1 +50%) Hammer Dan		33 33/1(+50%)																															(3) Hammer Dan 33/1, Fetched £62,000 after finishing second in a maiden point in February but shown little in either start under Rules, most recently on Taunton hurdles debut 9 days ago. Tried in hood now.
7	7 |PU| (7) (40/1 -43%) Tout Paris		40 40/1(-43%)																															(7) Tout Paris 40/1, Respectable second in Exeter novice hurdle on stable debut in February but well beaten on completed start over fences at Chepstow since. Place claims if switch back to smaller obstacles has desired effect.
4	4 |PU| (4) (50/1 -100%) King Conker		50 50/1(-100%)																															(4) King Conker 50/1, Schiaparelli gelding. Dam 2½m-3m hurdle/chase winner. Makes Rules debut here. Pulled up sole start in points and looks one for the longer term.

16:00 Newton Abbot Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow

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

Runner-up to a pair of decent Paul Nicholls inmates on two of his three starts under Rules, this appeals as a gilt-edged opportunity for WESTERN GENERAL to get off the mark. Red Notice won a point-to-point recently and is now in the hands of Christian Williams so is one to watch, while Knowwhentoholdem was promising in bumpers and it is too soon to write him off, despite a couple of ordinary efforts in this sphere.

It's hard to look past WESTERN GENERAL, who upped his game when second at Taunton last month and likely has more to offer yet. Point-winner Red Notice may prove most dangerous on his NH debut, particularly if the market vibes are strong, whilst Knowwhentoholdem can also make his presence felt.

This should go to WESTERN GENERAL, the only runner with any substantial hurdling form.

2	2 2nd (2) (4.5/1 -100%) Kym Eyre		4.5 4.5/1(-100%)																															(2) Kym Eyre 4.5/1, Yet to win a race of any type under Rules but this former point winner raised her game when a clear second on her second start in this sphere at Taunton last month. Not quite in same form next time but cheekpieces could perk her up.
3	8 3rd (8) (4/1 +56%) Lakeside Lad		4 4/1(+56%)																															(8) Lakeside Lad 4/1, Stopped the slide back over fences when second of 5 in handicap chase at Wincanton on penultimate start but failed to back it up at Plumpton last time. Up against it from out of the weights.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 +44%) Entre Deux		9 9/1(+44%)																															(4) Entre Deux 9/1, Remains a maiden and, after 11 months off, went with little encouragement when pulled up over timber at Hereford (19.7f) in January. Similar story on chasing debut at Plumpton and has plenty to prove.
1	1 |F| (1) (4/1 -33%) Galop Du Bosc		4 4/1(-33%)																															(1) Galop Du Bosc 4/1, 40/1 and blinkered for 1st time tongue strap on for 1st time, second of 15 in handicap chase at Chepstow (23.6f, soft) 16 days ago. Well treated and stable has been amongst the winners lately, so makes plenty of appeal.
7	7 |F| (7) (5.5/1 +73%) Via Dante		5.5 5.5/1(+73%)																															(7) Via Dante 5.5/1, Maiden pointer who has made little impact in varied events over hurdles. Fell on chase debut at Chepstow last time, so hard to make a case for.
6	6 |PU| (6) (6/1 +33%) Dysania		6 6/1(+33%)																															(6) Dysania 6/1, Maiden hurdler/chaser who was pulled up at Hexham last time. Had previously shown signs of encouragement and he's not long with this yard.

16:35 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow

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

KYM EYRE may have found the drop to an extended 2m5f against her when third at Taunton and Evan Williams' mare, who found only one too strong over 3m at Ffos Las prior to that, can show her appreciation for this return to a stiffer test. Galop Du Bosc bounced back to form with a creditable runner-up effort at Chepstow and he's feared most with the tongue-tie and blinkers retained. Kings Krackertara wasn't far behind in fourth on that occasion and completes the shortlist.

GALOP DU BOSC bounced back to form in first-time blinkers and a tongue strap at Chepstow last time and, in quite a weak race, he makes most appeal. Kings Krackertara is an obvious threat if she can build on her latest effort, and first-time cheekpieces look a plus for Kym Eyre.

The suggestion is KINGS KRACKERTARA who stayed on nicely over 3m last time and may have more to come at this trip.

2	2 2nd (2) (5.5/1 +73%) Talimar Pearl		5.5 5.5/1(+73%)																															(2) Talimar Pearl 5.5/1, Showed ability on first starts over hurdles but last couple of efforts have been uninspiring. Now tongue tied, but others make more appeal.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +36%) Zillion		9 9/1(+36%)																															(8) Zillion 9/1, Little impact so far over hurdles. Not disgraced on the Flat at Wolverhampton last time but hard to make a case for returning to this sphere.

5th	6 5th (6) (4.5/1 -13%) Shaw's Cross		4.5 4.5/1(-13%)																															(6) Shaw's Cross 4.5/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap chase at Plumpton (17f, good to soft) in January solid efforts in defeat since. Likely to be on the premises in a weak affair.
6th	9 6th (9) (22/1 -38%) Daany		22 22/1(-38%)																															(9) Daany 22/1, Modest 1m winner on Flat. Poor form so far over hurdles and was beaten a long way out in a handicap at Taunton last time. Others make more appeal.
7th	10 7th (10) (5/1 +41%) Agent Empire		5 5/1(+41%)																															(10) Agent Empire 5/1, Fairly useful on Flat in Germany but lightly raced and hard to enthuse about given his efforts over hurdles for current yard.
8th	11 8th (11) (12/1 +40%) Demothi		12 12/1(+40%)																															(11) Demothi 12/1, Placed in points but no better than poor form under Rules so far, so needs to up his game.
9th	3 9th (3) (4/1 -33%) Good Time Ahead		4 4/1(-33%)																															(3) Good Time Ahead 4/1, Looked better than ever when easily winning a 12-runner handicap hurdle at Lingfield (2m) in February. Not disgraced since, including on the Flat last time, and makes plenty of appeal in a thin race.
12	12 |PU| (12) (10/1 +75%) Loudspeaker		10 10/1(+75%)																															(12) Loudspeaker 10/1, Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1½m) and sold from Michael Bell 50,000 gns in July. Yet to match that over hurdles and faces a stiff task from out of the weights.

17:10 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Good Time Ahead wasn't quite at his best when fourth on rain-affected going at Plumpton last month and the nine-year-old, who subsequently made the frame on the all-weather, would make more appeal on ground quicker than he's likely to experience here. With that in mind, SHAW'S CROSS, who arrives in good form over fences, should have no issues reverting to the smaller obstacles and shades the vote. The lightly-raced Agent Empire took a small step forward at Sedgefield and is another to consider.

GOOD TIME AHEAD is in good order and this race lacks depth, so he looks like the most solid proposition. Tik Tok is a likely improver on handicap debut and a return to form from Privatory wouldn't be a huge surprise given how well his stable has been going lately.

Although unsighted in novices, TIK TOK could do a great deal better now running in a modest handicap.

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.
