7	7 (7) (9/4 +50%) Bushmill Boy		2.25 9/4(+50%)																															(7) Bushmill Boy 9/4, Long-standing maiden who made the frame on several occasions for David Thompson, including when runner-up at Hexham (2m, heavy) on penultimate start. Lesser effort last time but since undergone a wind op/changed yards and will be in the mix if on-song. 0-21 over hurdles; claimed out of a seller in May; makes stable debut from good mark.
3	3 (3) (4/1 -60%) Konigin Isabella		4 4/1(-60%)																															(3) Konigin Isabella 4/1, Has taken steps forward the last twice, finishing fourth of 12 at Stratford prior to opening her account over this C&D (good). 4 lb rise doesn't look at all harsh all things considered and she's a leading contender. Kept on strongly to score by a neck over C&D last month; further progress is possible.
10	10 (10) (11/2 +15%) Testflight		5.5 11/2(+15%)																															(10) Testflight 11/2, Second to a bang in-form rival back from a break in a maiden hurdle in Jersey last month. Going well when unseating four out over fences at Worcester (2½m, good to firm) a fortnight ago and, 4 lb lower back in this sphere, he has to enter calculations. Seemed to be running well before falling in a recent chase; can be competitive here.
4	4 (4) (11/2 -10%) Invictus De Brion		5.5 11/2(-10%)																															(4) Invictus De Brion 11/2, Plumpton bumper winner in September 2022 and bettered previous efforts in this sphere by some way when fourth in a 10-runner Worcester handicap (2m, good) last month. That was his first run for 15 months so he's entitled to come on for it. Cheekpieces applied. Pulled up in first two handicaps but returned from long break with much better run in June.
6	6 (6) (12/1 -20%) Jormungandr		12 12/1(-20%)																															(6) Jormungandr 12/1, No real impact in his qualifying runs but there were more encouraging signs when fifth on recent handicap bow at Worcester (2½m, good). However, this drop back in trip may not be ideal. Very respectable fifth on last month's handicap debut; might have a bit more to offer.
5	5 (5) (14/1 -17%) Bravewhenineedtobe		14 14/1(-17%)																															(5) Bravewhenineedtobe 14/1, Beaten a long way in 2 juvenile hurdles for Mags Mullins in Ireland and similar outcome both starts for present connections, well held on handicap debut at Southwell when last seen in January. Beaten abut 47l on handicap debut in January and not seen again since.
2	2 (2) (14/1 -211%) Get The Value		14 14/1(-211%)																															(2) Get The Value 14/1, Fairly useful form in first 2 of his 3 starts in bumpers and signs of encouragement over hurdles, fifth in a novice here (16.8f, good to firm) last time. Appeals as the type to improve now venturing down the handicap route. Yet to match his bumper form over hurdles but still has potential; handicap debut today.
1	1 (1) (40/1 -300%) Bears Hug		40 40/1(-300%)																															(1) Bears Hug 40/1, Successful twice on the Flat (both on AW) but yet to trouble the judge in this sphere and was well beaten on second start for this yard over 16.8f here last month. Always behind here last month but may yet build upon his encouraging stable debut in May.
8	8 (8) (40/1 -21%) Future Times		40 40/1(-21%)																															(8) Future Times 40/1, Modest maiden on the Flat for Jedd O'Keeffe and well held all 3 starts over timber for current yard. Big step forward required on handicap debut in this sphere. Makes handicap hurdle debut from a lowly mark but still needs to improve..
9	9 (9) (40/1 +0%) Square Du Roule		40 40/1(+0%)																															(9) Square Du Roule 40/1, Poor maiden who hasn't found any improvement for the switch to handicap company the last twice. Not beaten that far in first two handicaps but latest 3lb drop not enough to tempt.
11	11 (11) (66/1 -32%) Galactic Glow		66 66/1(-32%)																															(11) Galactic Glow 66/1, Three-time winner on the Flat last year but recent efforts in that sphere have lacked spark and he hasn't shown much in 5 runs over hurdles to date. 14 lb 'wrong' at the weights. Three-time winner on the Flat but has huge amount to prove over hurdles.

17:25 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

A step up in distance appeared to unlock some improvement in KONIGIN ISABELLA when opening her account over C&D last month. A 4lb higher rating looks more than workable for the Anthony Honeyball-trained mare and she's taken to follow up. Stable debutant Bushmill Boy looks just the type that will benefit from a change of scenery and an improved bid is forecast, while Invictus De Brion is entitled to build on last month's reappearance fourth at Worcester.

There were positives to glean from GET THE VALUE's efforts in a Stratford maiden and a novice event here in May, and he is of interest now switched to handicap company off a feasible opening mark. With recent winning form at a premium in this contest, Konigin Isabella, who got off the mark over C&D last time, has to be feared, while Bushmill Boy, Invictus de Brion and Testflight are all strong each-way contenders.

Preference is for INVICTUS DE BRION, who returned from a long layoff with a pleasing fourth at Worcester last month.

8	8 (8) (5/2 -11%) Pure Seduction		2.5 5/2(-11%)																															(8) Pure Seduction 5/2, £30,000 4-y-o, Mount Nelson filly. Dam, ran twice over hurdles, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Daisy's Gift. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Apr 28). Bought for £30,000 after making the frame in two Irish points; yard does well in bumpers.
1	1 (1) (3/1 -9%) Back In The Bay		3 3/1(-9%)																															(1) Back In The Bay 3/1, Runner-up in a point and fourth on Rules debut at Worcester. That sets a reasonable standard and she could put her experience to good use. Ran big race when fourth on recent rules debut at Worcester; major player here.
3	3 (3) (13/2 +35%) O'malley		6.5 13/2(+35%)																															(3) O'malley 13/2, Showed something to work on when fifth here on completed start, showing greenness. Capable of better with the benefit of experience. Struggled on debut in March but her C&D fifth in May was much more encouraging.
2	2 (2) (15/2 -50%) Eskimo Sam		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(2) Eskimo Sam 15/2, Black Sam Bellamy mare. Half-sister to 1¾m winner Artic Nel. Wears tongue strap. Makes plenty of appeal on paper for a yard that does well in this sphere. Yard enjoys some bumper success but this newcomer does not have an exciting pedigree.
4	4 (4) (10/1 -11%) Absence Of Malice		10 10/1(-11%)																															(4) Absence Of Malice 10/1, Hillstar filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stays 25f) Pym. Likely to need further but stable is going well. Out of an unraced half-sister to smart jumper Pym; yard does well in summer bumpers.
5	5 (5) (11/1 -10%) Dance The Moon		11 11/1(-10%)																															(5) Dance The Moon 11/1, Half-sister to numerous winners, including smart hurdler/useful chaser Thomas Campbell. Something to work on when fourth in a 17-runner event at Newbury on debut but failed to back it up at Uttoxeter last time. Has very good pedigree; made promising debut in December but flopped last month.
7	7 (7) (16/1 -146%) Polly Pi		16 16/1(-146%)																															(7) Polly Pi 16/1, Mount Nelson filly. Half-sister to poor hurdler Timassini. Dam (c92/h94), temperamental 2m hurdle winner (stayed 2½m), also 10.7f winner on Flat. Noteworthy newcomer. Half-sister to low-grade hurdle winner Timassini; stable not prolific in bumpers nowadays.
6	6 (6) (20/1 +0%) Lady Henrietta		20 20/1(+0%)																															(6) Lady Henrietta 20/1, Has hinted at ability in a couple of bumpers but looks more one for the longer term. May not be straightforward but was not beaten far on her first two starts.

17:55 Newton Abbot NH Flat Race (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

There was plenty of encouragement to be gleaned from BACK IN THE BAY's fourth-placed Rules bow at Worcester at the start of July. An extra furlong is sure to suit the daughter of Doyen and she ticks the most boxes. Fellow point-to-point runner-up Pure Seduction may serve the most resistance to the selection on her debut in this sphere, ahead of the Tom Lacey-trained newcomer Eskimo Sam.

PURE SEDUCTION has shown ability in points and her stable has a good record in this sphere, so she's marginally preferred to Back In The Bay, who made a positive start under Rules at Worcester last time. Eskimo Sam is also considered.

Irish point runner-up BACK IN THE BAY made a pretty good start to her rules career at Worcester last month and gets the nod.

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.
