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

BREAK POINT was making his debut for Olly Murphy's yard when narrowly beaten at Uttoxeter. There should be more to come now he's got his act together and Sean Bowen's presence is another positive. The Irish challengers could prove the main dangers, with Chantilly Wings (third) and Oh Janey (fourth) closely matched on their recent running at Roscommon, while No More Silver is preferred of Gordon Elliott's duo.

This looks open for a maiden and there's a strong Irish presence which BREAK POINT may repel if repeating his Uttoxeter form.

GALE MAHLER failed to fire in Grade 3 company in Ireland last month, but has strong claims back in handicap company. A bad blunder may have cost Adrian Keatley's charge the race when second at Uttoxeter in June, but she looks capable of winning off her current mark with a clear round. Lightkeeper could bounce back and get involved, while King Roly returns to this shorter trip with a shout and is preferred over Garde Des Champs in this grade.

The mare GALE MAHLER is only 3lb higher than when perhaps an unfortunate loser at Uttoxeter and her Galway failure is readily forgiven.

BROUGHSHANE makes most appeal of the recent winners. He made a winning debut for Mickey Bowen's yard when scoring at Market Rasen in first-time blinkers and he may well have more to offer in the headgear. Roscommon winner Power Of Words travels over from Ireland and can feature again with his jockey's 5lb allowance helping his cause, while Invictus World is another to consider off the back of a decisive victory over C&D.

Summergrounds is dangerous fresh but SPIT SPOT appeals as a mare who might well find something for today's step up in trip.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Soft ground appeared to scupper LARKFIELD LUSIVE's hat-trick bid at Carlisle but conditions ought to favour him this time around and an immediate return to form looks likely. Happy Index has largely held her form since scoring over an extended 3m2f here in May, so must enter calculations along with Burgundy Man, whose consistent efforts would be deserving of success. Green Bonnet is completely unexposed and should be monitored in the betting ahead of her handicap bow.

A very open handicap but LARKFIELD LUSIVE is taken to shrug off his no-show at Cartmel on ground that was too soft.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

FIVEONEFIVE landed a similar event in comfortable fashion at Cartmel in June, before having to be pulled up after losing his action at Roscommon latest. That effort came over fences though and should returning to the smaller obstacles be of benefit, he is likely to go close. Recent Uttoxeter scorer Vocito must compete from 6lb higher today but is of considerable interest, along with Rock On Pedro, who made the perfect start to life with Olly Murphy when on target at Worcester last month.

It's hard to rule out any of these. EVALUATION has yet to transfer his smart Flat form to hurdles but there's time yet.

Narrowly denied over shorter here on his penultimate start, RABY MERE should appreciate a return to this track and stepping up in trip may bring about improvement as he looks to land a third career success. Placed on each of his last five outings, Am Still Here is entitled on the premises again, as well as McGregors Charge, who may be winless in twelve starts, but has run with plenty of credit recently.

Preference is for AM STILL HERE (nap) who has yet to run a bad race over fences and looks ready for this longer trip.
Class & Speed Card
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

The John McConnell yard has hit a rich vein of form recently and with a good record at this track, the well-bred VALENCIAGA may be primed to strike on debut in an open-looking bumper. Other debutantes to note include Gijima and Tenthousandreasons for last year's winning connections, while Coutach looks the pick of those with experience despite putting in a disappointing effort when well fancied at Galway last month.

The hood could be a notable addition for COUTACH who raced too freely when again strong in the market at Galway.

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.
