Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	6 1st (6) (5/4 +44%) Manyana Blue	1.25 5/4(+44%)	(6) Manyana Blue 5/4, No match for a useful winner but ran to form when benefitting from an easy lead, finishing second beaten 7 1/2l in a juvenile hurdle over 2m at Uttoxeter last time; has an outside chance. Made the frame in three juvenile hurdles this summer; contender against older rivals here.
2	2 2nd (2) (7/2 +13%) Never Told Me	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(2) Never Told Me 7/2, Showed similar modest form to her debut when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle over 2m at Worcester last time; hood applied first time. Highly tried in bumpers but yet to reproduce that level over hurdles. Shaped with clear promise in two maiden hurdles this summer; leading contender.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/2 +38%) Irisante	2.5 5/2(+38%)	(3) Irisante 5/2, Made too much use of when stepped up in trip and did not stay, well beaten in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Musselburgh last time. Usually consistent; effective at 2m and may not stay further. Made frame in French Grade 3 hurdle last year but her British form is underwhelming.
4	1 4th (1) (17/2 -70%) Lynsey Larue	8.5 17/2(-70%)	(1) Lynsey Larue 17/2, Improved slightly when finishing a 14l third in a conditions race over 3m at Taylorstown on her latest outing; returns from a break. Point winner who goes well on good ground. 2-9 in Irish points; market helpful before this rules debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (28/1 +44%) Casual Encounter	28 28/1(+44%)	(5) Casual Encounter 28/1, Too keen and comfortably held in a handicap over 1m5f at Lingfield last time. Usually consistent; modest Flat form up to 2m and suited by a sound surface. Soundly beaten off basement Flat mark on recent stable debut; hurdle debut today.

14:15 Newton Abbot (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Midnight Pass makes her hurdling debut after a second at Worcester and a sixth at the same track last month. She could go well, as can Manyana Blue, who has come home in the top three on all of her starts over obstacles, with a second at Uttoxeter last time out. LYNSEY LARUE switches to hurdles after winning two of her last five point-to-points, including a two-length success at Tullaherin in April. She might be able to make a successful debut under Rules after moving to Evan Williams.

Preference is for NEVER TOLD ME, who ran well for a long way when fifth on her first two hurdling starts.

14:45 Newton Abbot (Class 4) 16f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 1st (1) (2/9 +64%) Howth	0.222222 2/9(+64%)	(1) Howth 2/9, Quickened clear with ease and outclassed rivals when a more sensible gallop was set, winning a handicap hurdle here by 17l last time; useful at best on the Flat and progressive in this sphere. Penalised accordingly but he has the best form by some margin; good ground ideal.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/1 -75%) Saratoga Lass	7 7/1(-75%)	(4) Saratoga Lass 7/1, From a yard that has won 2 of the last 5 runnings of this race; landed a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter over 2m by 1/4l last time. Progressive over hurdles since moving from Ireland, with more to come and may stay further than 2m. Uttoxeter maiden winner; rain wouldn't harm her chances given Irish form.
3	2 3rd (2) (8/1 -129%) Haptics	8 8/1(-129%)	(2) Haptics 8/1, Far too keen when beaten 8l in a handicap over 12f at Wolverhampton last time; effective from 12f to 14f on the Flat and best with cut. Disappointing in two Flat runs for current yard and others are safer on second hurdle run.
4	3 4th (3) (150/1 -50%) Majestic Moment	150 150/1(-50%)	(3) Majestic Moment 150/1, Made a poor hurdle debut when down the field in a novice hurdle over 2m at Uttoxeter most recently; this is his second run after wind surgery and he has it all to do. Seven-race maiden in points and was tailed off on hurdling debut when 50-1.
5th	6 5th (6) (22/1 -120%) Top Tier Gossip	22 22/1(-120%)	(6) Top Tier Gossip 22/1, Stopped quickly after a bad error and failed to build on her debut when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time. Generally out of form and back from a short break; effective at 2 1/2m. From a top yard but one for handicaps. Some ability in two bumpers but beaten 14l and 39l in her two races over hurdles.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (66/1 -32%) Absolut Grey	66 66/1(-32%)	(5) Absolut Grey 66/1, Improved when second, beaten a short head, in a maiden over 2m4f at Trebudannon last time; returning from a break. Previously showed minor promise in points at 2 1/2m. Nothing to show from two hurdle runs in France and modest point form earlier this year.

14:45 Newton Abbot (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

HOWTH is likely to prove popular with his three-out-of-four win record over hurdles, with the latest coming in a C&D handicap when he had 17 lengths to spare over his nearest rival. He does have to give away 12lb or more now back in novice company, but is difficult to oppose. Saratoga Lass struck on her second start for Fergal O'Brien after arriving from Ireland and she may have more to offer. Absolut Grey is a tentative pick for third.

With the prospect of rain a downer for Howth, it could pay to take him on with SARATOGA LASS who had soft-ground form in Ireland.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (16/5 +68%) Breaking Cover	3.2 16/5(+68%)	(5) Breaking Cover 16/5, Ran to form when 6 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle over 2m1f here on his most recent run. Likely to show more at trips further than 2m. 0-3 over fences but has got back on track over hurdles; can cope with soft ground.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/4 -14%) Centara	1.25 5/4(-14%)	(1) Centara 5/4, Well treated up 3lb, improved again when suited by a positive ride at a favoured venue, landing a handicap chase by 2l off 126 here last time. Progressive, though his revised mark will demand more again. Has won on good to soft but good seams ideal; has gone 4-4 since the tongue-tie was fitted.
3	2 3rd (2) (4/1 -20%) Ballywilliam Boy	4 4/1(-20%)	(2) Ballywilliam Boy 4/1, On a good mark, but had too much to do behind the all-the-way winner, hung and looked awkward when beaten 1 1/4l off 121 at Uttoxeter last time. Wants a stiffer test than 2m; slight enthusiasm concerns but well handicapped on Irish form. Won on soft ground in Ireland; 0-6 over fences but back in good form of late.
4	3 4th (3) (7/2 +30%) Got Grey	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(3) Got Grey 7/2, Won cosily when suited by a stiff track at the trip, landing a handicap by 2 1/4l off 112 over 2m1f at Worcester last time. Returns from a short break and remains well treated on his best hurdle form. Dual hurdle winner who finished well for successful chase debut; likes good ground.

15:20 Newton Abbot (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

CENTARA has struck up an excellent relationship with jockey Jay Tidball, winning their last four together, including three in a row over C&D. Another 5lb from the handicapper may not be enough to stop Paul Nicholls' gelding from making all again, with the drop in class a bonus. Got Grey ran on well to win at Worcester on his first start over fences and he can prove a bigger danger than Ballywilliam Boy.

The forecast rain is a concern for Centara so BREAKING COVER is taken to make a successful return to fences.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (9/4 +63%) Turpin Gold	2.25 9/4(+63%)	(5) Turpin Gold 9/4, Ran to form when beaten 2 1/4l off 99 over 2m at Stratford last time. Consistent at 2m on a sound surface. Back in good form for new stable this season but forecast rain a worry.
2	3 2nd (3) (10/3 +26%) Juggernaut	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(3) Juggernaut 10/3, Not clear run late, a touch unlucky but out-battled by race-fit rivals when beaten 1/2l off 103 here last time. Off a short break and progressive, should come on for latest run. Returned from break with good C&D third in June and is not yet fully exposed; respected.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/2 +0%) Feel The Pinch	5.5 11/2(+0%)	(2) Feel The Pinch 11/2, Returned to form off reduced mark down in grade when race fell apart, scoring by a head off 103 here penultimate start. Ran to form when second, beaten 7 1/2l off 103 last time. Off a short break and remains a threat. Not the force of old but won over C&D in June and is still well handicapped.
4	1 4th (1) (13/2 -86%) Chillhi	6.5 13/2(-86%)	(1) Chillhi 13/2, Travelled comfortably, improved when stepped up in trip and scored by 4 1/4l off 98 over 2m4f at Uttoxeter in July. Top jockey returns. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m on good to firm and good to soft. Still mileage in mark on old form. Has mixed record for new stable this year but won latest hurdle run in good style.
5th	4 5th (4) (5/1 -25%) Gore Point	5 5/1(-25%)	(4) Gore Point 5/1, Improved when stepped up in trip and needed every yard to score by a neck off 97 over 2m3f here penultimate start. Outpaced and unsuited by how the race developed when second, beaten 3 1/4l off 104 last time. Bit to find. Dual course winner this season and may still have more improvement to come.
6th	9 6th (9) (16/1 0%) It's Life	16 16/1(0%)	(9) It's Life 16/1, Had every chance and ran to form but was comfortably held in a juvenile hurdle over 2m at Uttoxeter last time. Usually consistent and may do better in handicaps. Has shown promise in juvenile hurdles this summer but is 12lb wrong for handicap debut.
8	8 \|F\| (8) (20/1 +39%) Catboy	20 20/1(+39%)	(8) Catboy 20/1, Outpaced and never involved on hurdles return, finishing down the field over 2m3f here most recently. Generally out of form. Soundly beaten when back over hurdles here last week but refitted cheekpieces provide hope.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (14/1 -133%) Tuba	14 14/1(-133%)	(6) Tuba 14/1, Ran to form when fourth, beaten 8 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe latest. Effective at 2m on good ground. Still a maiden under both codes. Moves into handicaps after encouraging fourth in recent Ballinrobe maiden; interesting.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (16/1 0%) Jackson's Bay	16 16/1(0%)	(7) Jackson's Bay 16/1, Below form on handicap debut when comfortably held over 2m at Chepstow last time. Usually consistent but plenty more needed. Beaten about 17l when last of five on handicap debut in March; not seen again since.

15:55 Newton Abbot (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

A few to consider, including Chillhi, who reverts to hurdles following a mixed spell on the Flat. He's 7lb higher than for last month's Uttoxeter triumph, but has the champion jockey aboard again. Gore Point and Feel The Pinch both arrive in good form and must enter calculations, but JUGGERNAUT gets the nod. Just half a length away in third behind Feel The Pinch here in June, the six-year-old was making his reappearance that day and can improve past his rival en route to victory.

Top of the list is JUGGERNAUT, who returned from a layoff with a good C&D run in June and may still have improvement to come.

1	8 1st (8) (15/2 -36%) Queens Venture	7.5 15/2(-36%)	(8) Queens Venture 15/2, Travelled easily and improved when dropped in trip in a weaker contest, landing a handicap by 17l off 107 at Stratford last time; progressive. Cruised clear at Stratford last month but is 9lb higher in a much stronger race here.
2	5 2nd (5) (11/4 +73%) Luttrell Lad	2.75 11/4(+73%)	(5) Luttrell Lad 11/4, Ran to form and did best of those up with the pace, finishing fourth beaten 7 1/4l in a handicap hurdle over 2m1f at Cartmel last time; visor on for the first time; chance. Won off today's mark in February but not in same form since and has stamina to prove.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 +58%) Mostly Sunny	5 5/1(+58%)	(6) Mostly Sunny 5/1, Given too much to do off a modest pace when dropped back in trip, finishing fourth beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap hurdle over 2m5f at Market Rasen latest. In the frame all four starts since collecting good prize at Plumpton in April.
4	10 4th (10) (3/1 +54%) The Height Of Fame	3 3/1(+54%)	(10) The Height Of Fame 3/1, Returned to form, just flattening out late behind race-fit rivals when beaten 2 1/2l off 110 over 2m4f at Worcester last time; trainer in form; enjoys making it; off a short break; should improve. Dual C&D winner; ran well last month, after a break, but does not want rain here.
5th	9 5th (9) (12/1 +14%) Balkardy	12 12/1(+14%)	(9) Balkardy 12/1, Rallied gamely and returned to form when dropped in trip back over hurdles, outstaying the runner-up to land a handicap by 3/4l off 108 over 2m4f at Ffos Las last time; off a short break; well treated on best form. Kept on well for Ffos Las win in June but has more on his plate here; others preferred.
6th	2 6th (2) (11/1 -175%) Secret Trix	11 11/1(-175%)	(2) Secret Trix 11/1, Ran to his best, just flattening out late when back from a break against race-fit rivals, beaten 2 1/4l off 132 over 2m7f at Uttoxeter last time; usually held up; returning from a break. 6-20 over hurdles; off since May and remains on fairly tough mark but still considered.
7th	3 7th (3) (18/1 -80%) D Day Arvalenreeva	18 18/1(-80%)	(3) D Day Arvalenreeva 18/1, Below form when raised in grade, finding a stiff mark too much and finishing down the field in a handicap hurdle over 2m1f at Market Rasen most recently; had been in good form prior. Won her first three handicaps in the spring; moves up in trip for this stable debut.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (5/1 -50%) Feud	5 5/1(-50%)	(1) Feud 5/1, Made too many errors and had too much to do, but still ran to form when beaten a neck off a mark of 130 over 2m1f at Wexford last time; probably has more to come. Dual novice winner; upped in trip after going close on recent handicap debut (2m1f).

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

It might pay to side with FEUD, who succumbed to a neck defeat over 2m1f at Wexford latest. He's 7lb higher here, but the Irish raider looks set to relish a step up in trip and is likely to have more in his locker. My Chiquita returned to hurdles with an excellent second at Worcester and must be respected from 2lb higher, while others to note include Queens Venture and Secret Trix.

Irish raider FEUD, a stout stayer on the Flat, and moves up in trip after going close over 2m1f on his recent handicap debut.

1	4 1st (4) (2/1 +20%) Blackacre	2 2/1(+20%)	(4) Blackacre 2/1, Improved in a first-time visor, winning a handicap comfortably by 8l off 68 here last time. Remains well treated on hurdle form and should have more to offer now he has got his head in front. Back from a break and in a first-time visor when winning here nine days ago.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/1 +20%) Unspeakable	6 6/1(+20%)	(2) Unspeakable 6/1, Below form when comfortably held in a handicap chase here last time and generally out of form. Wears cheekpieces for the first time and returns from a short break; considered a value selection on the balance of form. Ability is there should the new cheekpieces get him back on track; soft wouldn't be ideal.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/2 -82%) My Girl Katie	2.5 5/2(-82%)	(1) My Girl Katie 5/2, Well treated off an unchanged mark, she improved over a longer trip for an easy success, winning a handicap by 9 1/2l off 78 over 3m4f at Stratford last time. Usually held up; a progressive strong stayer who remains ahead of the handicapper. Up 8lb for winning so well at Stratford but arrives here on an upward curve.
4	5 4th (5) (9/1 -20%) Mini Fortune	9 9/1(-20%)	(5) Mini Fortune 9/1, Travelled strongly and improved, but was possibly outstayed when finishing a 7l third in a handicap chase at Uttoxeter most recently. Steadily progressive; well handicapped on her point win and capable of winning a chase. 5-15 in points; has made the frame in all three chases; goodish ground is preferred.
5th	3 5th (3) (7/2 +22%) Testflight	3.5 7/2(+22%)	(3) Testflight 7/2, Outpaced before rallying, then out-battled and outstayed rivals to score by 2l off 71 here on his penultimate start. Last time had too much to do and was beaten 7l into second off 74; on a good mark judged on chase form. Running well but all his best form has come on good or quicker ground.

17:05 Newton Abbot (Class 5) 25f Race Class Flow

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

My Girl Katie has been raised 8lb for an emphatic Stratford triumph and although that should be no barrier to further success, it is BLACKACRE who shades preference. Well supported in a first-time visor (retained) latest, he eased to victory over this C&D. Evan Williams' charge is only 5lb higher and that might not be enough to stop him. Testflight heads the remainder.

Recent C&D winner BLACKACRE (nap) won't be fazed by the prospect of softening ground and he can go in again.

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.
