Having supplemented her bumper victory at Uttoxeter when making a winning hurdles bow over 2m at this venue, the hat-trick seeking Cabra Lady warrants respect racing over 2m4f. However, BISHOP HILL receives 7lb from the daughter of Getaway and she may have her measure. Lucinda Russell's mare appeared to be travelling sweetly when falling at the third-last hurdle in a handicap over C&D last month and compensation could be on the cards reverting to novice company. Scarlet O'Tara can chase that pair home.

CABRA LADY supplemented her bumper win on hurdles debut here last month despite looking in need of the experience. With that in mind, she's taken to find the necessary improvement required to defy a penalty at the main expense of Scarlet O'Tara and Bishop Hill.

The 6yo SCARLET O'TARA pushed a good mare close at Worcester and that entitles her to the vote.

The progressive DRIPSEY MOON has clearly relished chasing judged on his recent double over C&D and a 2lb nudge up the ratings for his latest victory here looks more than workable. The seven-year-old is taken to complete the hat-trick at the main expense of penalised Worcester winner Watergrange Jack. Neil Mulholland has his string in good order at present and a 7lb penalty is unlikely to prevent another bold bid. Point-to-point winner Whistle Stop Tour is also interesting on his chasing bow.

DRIPSEY MOON has taken extremely well to chasing and a 2 lb rise for his latest his win may not be enough to prevent the hat-trick, especially with fitness on his side. The Lucinda Russell-trained pair Cadell and Whistle Stop Tour both strike as the types to make better chasers and warrant close market scrutiny.

Dripsey Moon is hard to knock but CADELL is well-in with the topweight on a previous clash over hurdles.

CHAPEL GREEN relished the step up in distance when landing the spoils at Kelso in May and there should be more to come this season. Although the handicapper has reacted with an 8lb rise for the Dylan Thomas gelding, he looks capable of following up. The Peter & Michael Bowen-trained runners always warrant respect given their fine strike-rate at this venue and their representative Peejaybee shouldn't be underestimated dropping in distance. Mr Mackay and Give Me A Moment aren't easily dismissed either.

MR MACKAY shaped well when a debut chasing third at Bangor and looks the way to go with improvement very much on the cards. Kelso-scorer Chapel Green appeals as the main threat to Nigel Twiston-Davies' 5-y-o ahead of Peejaybee and Give Me A Moment.

The return to Perth is a positive for CARDAMON HILLS and he earns the vote ahead of the 5yo Mr Mackay.

City Derby has been in excellent form during the summer months, winning four on the bounce at Cartmel with the latest of those arguably a career-best performance. However, a further 8lb rise might be enough to stop his progression and the vote goes to IDEM. The six-year-old won at Kelso when last seen in May and appears capable of further improvement on his seventh outing over timber. La Renommee displayed some useful form against her own sex over fences last term and she has to be a threat now rated 7lb lower in this sphere.

An open handicap but Irish challenger BUILDING BRIDGES shaped well when sixth in a big-field handicap at Galway last time and he gets the vote off the same mark here. City Derby rates the obvious threat in his bid for a five-timer, with Caius Marcius and Idem also well in the mix.

Irish raider BUILDING BRIDGES (nap) moved well for a long way when sixth at the Galway festival and that was a deep race.

CALL BLUE has finished second on both outings so far this season and Nigel Twiston-Davies' mare appears to have been found the ideal opportunity to get her head in front for the first time. Heart Above is expected to appreciate the drop back to 2m and can play a leading role in proceedings. Winds Of Winter ran well on her first start for Iain Jardine when runner-up over 2m4f here and the six-year-old appeals most of the remainder.

CALL BLUE remains a maiden yet she may of bucked that trend but for some late errors when runner-up at Newton Abbot 17 days ago and this could be the day she puts it all together and comes out on top. Purple Gown could yet have more to offer in this sphere and she's a danger. Winds of Winter and Heart Above complete the dangers.

Although back in distance today, WINDS OF WINTER ran a nice first race for her new yard here recently and Brian Hughes rides again.

CUSACK PARK has run with credit on both outings over hurdles so far and the five-year-old is expected to step forward on his handicap debut with the extra distance likely to aid his cause. Connections also opt for first-time cheekpieces, which further enhances his credentials, with similar comments potentially applying to Reagrove Lord after hitting the frame twice over C&D. Belle Of Annandale and Walk On Quest can fight it out for third.

Preference is for BELLE OF ANNANDALE, who left the impression she was worth another crack at this sort of trip when fourth at Market Rasen last month and has the assistance of Brian Hughes. Walk On Quest is low mileage and could prove dangerous on handicap debut, whilst Reagrove Lord can also make his presence felt.

A chance is taken on the fitness of SIZE FIVE, who has been absent since December 2022 but is bred to appreciate today's longer trip.

Having appreciated the rise in distance when scoring over an extended 3m1f at Cartmel last month, Skyjack Hijack is likely to prove popular in his follow-up bid. A 6lb higher rating is unlikely to prevent the six-year-old from going close again, but WESTERN GLEN edges the vote. Gillian Boanas' mare has posted two creditable efforts over track and trip of late and a reproduction of her latest second here off an unchanged mark may see her get off the mark. Midnight Gold could also have a say up in trip.

Cases can be made for plenty of these, and it could pay to take a chance on the returning MIDNIGHT GOLD, who was well beaten when sent off favourite at Fontwell back in May but appeals as the type to bounce back for her in-form yard. Second choice is Skyjack Highjack, who opened his account at Cartmel last month and continues to go from strength to strength. Western Glen can edge out Nastasiya for third spot.

The mare MIDNIGHT GOLD goes well fresh and kept on well for second over 2m5f at Warwick in May. She is the selection.

DRUMLEE MYTH has hit the frame on both bumper outings to date and he looks the one to side with. Sean McParlan's gelding arrives on the back of a fine third at Wexford and he can make the most of the weight received from penalised winner Peace Motivator. The four-year-old was value for further when making a winning racecourse debut at Worcester at the start of this month and he isn't taken lightly. Market support for point-to-point winner Hay Meadow would be interesting.

Irish-raider DRUMLEE MYTH showed enough in 2 starts this summer to think a race of this nature is well within reach and he could well be the way to go. Debutant-winner Peace Motivator rates the chief danger, ahead of pint-scorer Hay Meadow.

Peace Motivator might do well to defy a penalty against DRUMLEE MYTH who has posted superior Topspeed and RPR figures.

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.
