1	6 1st (6) (7/2 +22%) Kauto The King		3.5 7/2(+22%)																															(6) Kauto The King 7/2, Four-time course winner and has found just one too good on his last 2 visits here, latterly in a C&D handicap 9 days ago (Begin The Luck back in third). Will have his work cut out against progressive 6-y-o Get Up Mush but may well beat the rest of these if he repeats his latest effort. Not the force of old but runs this track very well and probably won't be far way.
2	4 2nd (4) (10/1 +0%) Bagheera Ginge		10 10/1(+0%)																															(4) Bagheera Ginge 10/1, Opened chase account when proving 3¼ lengths too strong for Opening Bid off this mark at Warwick in October. Creditable efforts in defeat next 2 starts but form has taken a turn for the worse since (pulled up in race won by Get Up Mush at Uttoxeter last month) and he needs to bounce back. Won off this mark in October but has looked out of sorts lately.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/1 +10%) Opening Bid		9 9/1(+10%)																															(1) Opening Bid 9/1, Won 5 times over fences in 2023, including twice here, and returned to form when twice reaching the frame at Uttoxeter in the June. However, form has nosedived the last twice and there are more appealing options in this line-up. Good claims if judged on his two runs in June but form has slumped lately.
4	3 4th (3) (5/4 -14%) Get Up Mush		1.25 5/4(-14%)																															(3) Get Up Mush 5/4, Looked a good prospect when getting the better of Opening Bid on return/chase debut at Uttoxeter (21f, good) in June. Soft ground against him when turned over next time and duly got back on track when dead-heating (subsequently awarded the race outright), again at Uttoxeter, last time. Big player. 2-3 over fences and could still have significant further improvement to come; respected.
5th	7 5th (7) (5/1 +17%) Begin The Luck		5 5/1(+17%)																															(7) Begin The Luck 5/1, Solid efforts in defeat when runner-up at Stratford and over this C&D in June before finishing well held in a Uttoxeter handicap won by Get Up Mush. Back on track when third back here recently, albeit he has 3½ lengths to find with the re-opposing runner-up, Kauto The King. Not quite at best when third over C&D recently but still enters calculations.
6th	5 6th (5) (28/1 -211%) Lakota Warrior		28 28/1(-211%)																															(5) Lakota Warrior 28/1, Fairly useful chaser for Dan Skelton in 2022 and in good form between the flags in recent months, successful on 3 of his last 4 starts in that sphere. Pulled up in a hunter chase at Wincanton on latest Rules start in February, though, and he has a bit to prove back in a handicap chase. Won three small-field points in the spring but has a lot more on his plate here.
7th	2 7th (2) (14/1 -56%) Champagne Court		14 14/1(-56%)																															(2) Champagne Court 14/1, Last victory was gained over hurdles at Newbury in 2022 and he has posted some creditable efforts in defeat in this sphere since. On the downside, this 11-y-o shaped as though amiss tried in blinkers in a Uttoxeter handicap hurdle last time and cheekpieces swiftly refitted now back chasing. Pulled up over hurdles last month (something amiss) but can feature here if all is well.

17:05 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

ZHANG FEI has been kept ticking over with a couple of respectable efforts on the Flat since his wide-margin success over C&D last month and is readily suggested as the one to be with, despite the handicapper putting him up 10lb for that easy win. This is a deeper race, however, and closely-matched pair Good Impression and Coup De Gold, as well as Polling Day, can make it a good test for the selection. Afta Party also knows how to win over hurdles and is another to consider.

PAK ARMY shaped well when third over 19f at Fontwell last time and this keen-going C&D scorer can resume winning ways now back in trip. Zhang Fei remains unexposed in this sphere and arrives fit from the Flat so rates a big threat. In-form pair Coup de Gold and Polling Day also need factoring into this open handicap.

Usefl Flat racer POLLING DAY can build upon his placed form in maiden hurdles on this handicap hurdle debut.

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.
