12:20 Plumpton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	5 1st (5) (8/15 +57%) Julius Des Pictons	0.533333 8/15(+57%)	(5) Julius Des Pictons 8/15, Fair form in bumpers in France and similar form when runner-up both outings over hurdles in 2023/24, beaten short neck on second occasion. Left M. Mescam for €120,000 and matched that form when runner-up at Uttoxeter a month ago, clear of rest. Sets pretty good standard. Ex-French 5yo who posted a solid effort at Uttoxeter on British debut; leading claims.
2	7 2nd (7) (7/2 -17%) Geturguccion	3.5 7/2(-17%)	(7) Geturguccion 7/2, Runner-up on first of 2 starts in bumpers this spring. Bright start in this sphere when chasing home Dameofthecotswolds in novice hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f) in October and that puts her right in this. Predominantly consistent mare; beat all bar the market leader at Ludlow most recently.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/1 -10%) Golan Loop	11 11/1(-10%)	(3) Golan Loop 11/1, £85,000 4-y-o, fourth foal: dam (h79), maiden hurdler, half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Amber Brook and fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Medical Card. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt (May 18) and joined a yard among the winners. Irish point winner; joined new connections for £85,000; heed the market signals.
4	2 4th (2) (33/1 -175%) Elysian Knight	33 33/1(-175%)	(2) Elysian Knight 33/1, Champs Elysees gelding. Bred to stay well and shaped in kind in a trio of bumpers. No surprise he's upped in trip for hurdles debut. Related to two winning jumpers for his yard; could well progress now hurdling.
5th	4 5th (4) (11/2 -57%) Go West	5.5 11/2(-57%)	(4) Go West 11/2, Runner-up sole start in points and filled same spot in bumpers at Chepstow/Doncaster prior to getting it right at Wincanton in March. Brushed aside at Kelso a fortnight later but sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut. Bumper winner; likely player, provided he returns from long absence in top from.
6th	8 6th (8) (100/1 +0%) La Dolce Dolly	100 100/1(+0%)	(8) La Dolce Dolly 100/1, Won sole start in Irish points (May 19) but was quickly left behind when third of 4 on hurdles debut over C&D a fortnight ago. Form of Irish point win is weak; modest third over C&D for new stable.
7th	6 7th (6) (200/1 -100%) Roxhill	200 200/1(-100%)	(6) Roxhill 200/1, €9,000 3-y-o, Ocovango gelding. Dam unraced. Third on first of 2 starts in point bumpers but could never land a blow on last month's hurdles bow. Modest fourth at Wincanton on rules debut.
1	1 \|PU\| (1) (300/1 -275%) Court One	300 300/1(-275%)	(1) Court One 300/1, €9,000 3-y-o, £20,000 4-y-o, first foal: dam unraced half-sister to fair hurdle winner/fair chaser (stayed 2¾m) Our Friend. Unseated rider sole start in Irish points and achieved very little on hurdles debut over C&D a month ago. Remote fourth over C&D on rules debut; poor claims.

12:20 Plumpton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

JULIUS DES PICTONS ticks plenty of boxes having returned to action with a creditable second at Uttoxeter on his first start for Jamie Snowden. He found only Western Knight, a subsequent winner at Ascot too good that day, and could have the measure of Geturguccion on the strength of that form. The latter was no match for the winner when runner-up at Ludlow, but that was her first attempt over hurdles and another good account seems likely. The bumper winner Go West is also worth noting on his hurdling bow.

JULIUS DES PICTONS matched his French form when runner-up at Uttoxeter a month ago and a repeat of that may well enable him to go one place better. Geturguccion is a sold-looking opponent, while Go West is sure to be well prepared for this hurdles bow.

As regards the runners who already have hurdles experience, solid contenders JULIUS DES PICTONS and Geturguccion stand out.

12:50 Plumpton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (5/2 +62%) Havaila	2.5 5/2(+62%)	(1) Havaila 5/2, Scored over hurdles at Sandown in January. In good form on the Flat of late so he's much respected now going chasing. Not blindingly well treated on chase debut but Freddie Mitchell takes off handy 5lb.
6	6 (6) (11/4 -47%) Theonlywayiswessex	2.75 11/4(-47%)	(6) Theonlywayiswessex 11/4, Opened his account over jumps in 17f handicap chase at Stratford (17f) in June. Posted a very good second of 8 over C&D 28 days ago. Leading claims off an unchanged mark. Solid second off top weight in Class 5 over C&D last time; respected off bottom weight.
5	5 (5) (5/1 -11%) Ede'iffs Rock	5 5/1(-11%)	(5) Ede'iffs Rock 5/1, Consistent sort who opened her account for the season here (20.5f) four weeks ago. Can make her presence felt going chasing. Back up 3lb for hurdle win here last time but Ben Ffrench Davis takes off 5lb.
4	4 (4) (7/1 +22%) Bentley's Return	7 7/1(+22%)	(4) Bentley's Return 7/1, A fair maiden hurdler but a below-par fourth in handicap hurdle at Kempton (21f, soft) when last seen 9 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running now starting out over fences. Seven-race maiden who has consistent form; possibilities if taking well to fences.
2	2 (2) (8/1 -14%) Belgarum	8 8/1(-14%)	(2) Belgarum 8/1, Scored emphatically over fences at Plumpton (2m4f) in September but well below par both runs since, tried in cheekpieces when beating only one at Sandown last time. Needs to bounce back. Very experienced for a novice chaser; won over C&D in September; now 10lb higher.
3	3 (3) (18/1 -350%) Givehimthehonour	18 18/1(-350%)	(3) Givehimthehonour 18/1, A fair ex-Irish hurdler but pulled up on his fencing debut at Clonmel (22.8f, good) in June on his final run for Paul Nolan. Needs this yard switch to spark a resurgence. Ex-Irish 6yo who retains potential over fences (point winner); debut for new yard.

12:50 Plumpton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

THEONLYWAYISWESSEX finished clear of the rest when runner-up over course and distance last month. Alan King's inmate looks up to winning off his current mark on that evidence and gets another chance. Ede'iffs Rock is only 3lb higher than when scoring over hurdles here on her latest outing and can feature if taking to the larger obstacles, while Givehimthehonour debuts for new connections and is worth a second glance on his second start over fences.

THEONLYWAYISWESSEX can race off the same mark as when a very good recent C&D second so earns a confident vote here. Chasing newcomers Havaila and Ede'iffs Rock both bring potential and could emerge as the main dangers to Alan King's 6-y-o.

Solid-looking THEONLYWAYISWESSEX gets the vote, ahead of consistent Bentley's Return.

13:20 Plumpton Novices Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	1 (1) (8/13 +62%) Fromheretoeternity	0.615385 8/13(+62%)	(1) Fromheretoeternity 8/13, Progressive since joining this yard, landing a handicap at Worcester before easily following up in a Hexham novice. Turned over when odds on at Newcastle (20.3f, good) recently but this drop back in trip looks a good move and she needs considering. 2-2 in her 2m attempts for new yard; even with a double penalty, holds leading claims.
8	8 (8) (10/3 -33%) Korus	3.333333 10/3(-33%)	(8) Korus 10/3, Half-brother to 4 winners and, having shaped well on the first of his 2 starts in bumpers, this 4-y-o went close on his hurdles debut at Huntingdon (15.8f, good). Easy to pick holes in that form (the first 2 in the market misfired) but he's a big player nonetheless with improvement likely. Close second at Huntingdon on the switch to this sphere; nicely bred and may progress.
3	3 (3) (10/1 +50%) Confinentic	10 10/1(+50%)	(3) Confinentic 10/1, Just minor promise on debut in a Worcester bumper in June but showed plenty to work on switched to hurdles when fourth of 14 in a Fontwell (17.7f, good to soft) maiden last month. Likely to do better in due course. Has shaped with promise in bumper and maiden hurdle; frame possibilities.
5	5 (5) (14/1 +0%) Fort St Angelo	14 14/1(+0%)	(5) Fort St Angelo 14/1, Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points and showed definite promise when runner-up on Rules debut in a Ludlow bumper (15.8f, good). However, he failed to perform to a similar level on subsequent hurdles bow at Newbury and yard saddles a more interesting candidate in Confinentic. Winner of Irish point and runner-up in bumper; modest fourth on hurdles debut.
9	9 (9) (16/1 -300%) Master Dunraven	16 16/1(-300%)	(9) Master Dunraven 16/1, Twice a winner of 1¼m handicaps on the Flat for Johnny Murtagh, including on his latest start at Leopardstown in October. Effective at up to 14.5f on the level, stamina shouldn't be an issue now sent hurdling and he's one to consider. Better than ever at Leopardstown on final Flat start for Johnny Murtagh; possibilities.
2	2 (2) (20/1 -43%) Birthday Angel	20 20/1(-43%)	(2) Birthday Angel 20/1, Brother to useful hurdler Teqany (winner around 2m) and fairly useful hurdler Castel Gandolfo (winner around 2m). Fair maiden on Flat and showed aptitude for hurdling when third in a C&D novice in October before unseating at around the halfway point at Kempton 3 weeks ago. Others stronger. Ran encouragingly over C&D on hurdles debut; unseated rider at Kempton since.
7	7 (7) (22/1 +33%) Jack Sparrow Grey	22 22/1(+33%)	(7) Jack Sparrow Grey 22/1, Mere glimmers of ability in a Sandown bumper and 20.5f novice here last winter. Probably capable of better but probably more one for handicaps in due course. Absent since distant seventh over 2m4f here last December; market helpful.
11	11 (11) (33/1 -65%) Dance In The Park	33 33/1(-65%)	(11) Dance In The Park 33/1, Posted good second (with hood on) in a Fontwell bumper on NH debut. More encouragement than previously over hurdles when third at that course (17.7f, heavy) on latest start in March but she will need to up her game in order to emerge on top here. Best form when placed twice at Fontwell; recorded her worst effort at Plumpton.
10	10 (10) (66/1 -32%) Voix De Bocelli	66 66/1(-32%)	(10) Voix De Bocelli 66/1, Fair form in France for Francois Nicolle but has generally struggled for this yard. Inconsistent maiden on Flat and over jumps.
4	4 (4) (250/1 -150%) Eklil	250 250/1(-150%)	(4) Eklil 250/1, Three-time winner on the Flat but hasn't shown much in a couple of runs in this sphere, beaten a country mile when third in a 4-runner C&D seller a fortnight ago. Beaten long way in C&D seller last time; opposed.
12	12 (12) (250/1 -150%) Sally Mclennane	250 250/1(-150%)	(12) Sally Mclennane 250/1, Limited impact in 3 starts so far and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Bit of promise in bumper last winter; dismal form this term.

13:20 Plumpton Novices Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

FROMHERETOETERNITY represents an in-form yard and makes plenty of appeal despite giving weight away to all of her rivals. Experience can win the day as she's 2-10 over timber and has improved markedly since cheekpieces were applied for this new stable. Korus went close to winning at Huntingdon on his debut over timber and will likely prove competitive, while Confinentic should have more to offer. An interesting import from Ireland, Master Dunraven is another to note.

KORUS would have won in another stride on his first go over hurdles at Huntingdon 4 weeks ago and can take this contest with improvement on the cards. Fromheretoeternity is a big player back over 2m, while Master Dunraven is an interesting recruit for Neil Mulholland.

This can go to FROMHERETOETERNITY who holds leading claims back down in trip despite the big penalty.

13:50 Plumpton Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
5	5 (5) (11/4 +66%) Through The Ages	2.75 11/4(+66%)	(5) Through The Ages 11/4, Won back-to-back juvenile races at Newbury/this course at the turn of the year. Didn't progress in handicaps next 2 starts, but stepped up on this season's return when fifth of 9 at Sandown (19.8f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Interesting back down in grade. Outstayed over 2m4f at Sandown but may see out the trip better at this course.
3	3 (3) (4/1 +47%) Baltray	4 4/1(+47%)	(3) Baltray 4/1, Off the mark at Hereford on second start over hurdles/for current yard last season. Also ran well on handicap debut when second at Fontwell (19.1f, good) in May, before pulled up at Bangor over fences in October. Not dismissed back hurdling. Didn't take to fences last time; has form figures of 212 over hurdles; interesting.
11	11 (11) (9/2 +18%) Macari	4.5 9/2(+18%)	(11) Macari 9/2, Off the mark over hurdles in novices' handicap at this course (17.8f) in April. Better than ever back on the Flat since, scoring at Newbury in October, before a good second back hurdling over C&D (good to soft) last time. Could be in the mix. In-form 4yo; won on Flat last month; ran well over C&D on the return to hurdles.
2	2 (2) (5/1 +23%) Bertie B	5 5/1(+23%)	(2) Bertie B 5/1, Improved when opening his hurdles account in novices' handicap at Hereford in February, before finding the test too much at Warwick the following month. Good second at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft) on return on he can give his running again. Creditable second at Uttoxeter on reappearance; consistent since last winter; solid.
4	4 (4) (8/1 -167%) Batwomen	8 8/1(-167%)	(4) Batwomen 8/1, Having finished runner-up on first 2 starts over hurdles, made a successful switch to handicaps when winning in smooth fashion at Fontwell (19.1f, good to soft) in October. Leading contender with more to offer now that she's up and running. Record of 211, all at Fontwell, since switched to hurdles; may improve further; respected.
10	10 (10) (12/1 -9%) Stanley Pincombe	12 12/1(-9%)	(10) Stanley Pincombe 12/1, Back to his best in 2023/24, successful at this C&D in November. Has shaped if in need of the run both outings this season, in contention 2 out before weakening at Kempton (21f, good to soft) in October. Could fare better this time around. The only C&D winner in this field but still has a bit to prove in this grade.
9	9 (9) (18/1 -64%) Irish Chorus	18 18/1(-64%)	(9) Irish Chorus 18/1, Promise in her qualifying runs over hurdles, not ideally placed after 6 months off when third in maiden at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) in November. Unseated at the fourth at Hereford on handicap debut 5 days ago, so she remains with potential. Bred to be suited by this new trip and to do better yet; related to winners for her owner.
6	6 (6) (18/1 -100%) Inferno Sacree	18 18/1(-100%)	(6) Inferno Sacree 18/1, Enjoyed a most productive spell when winning 5 times from 6 starts in first half of 2023. Largely struggled since but step back in right direction when runner-up at this course (15.9f, good to soft) 4 weeks ago. Well treated if he can build on that. Has a respectable record at about 2m here; something to prove back over 2m4f.
8	8 (8) (22/1 -22%) Parikarma	22 22/1(-22%)	(8) Parikarma 22/1, Lost way for Gary Moore but revived at first time of asking for this yard when landing a Newton Abbot handicap (16.8f) in June. Fit from the Flat, fourth of 10 at Ludlow (21.2f, good to soft) 25 days ago, but task is now to back up her latest run. Hurdles form for current stable comprises a win in June and creditable fourth last time.
7	7 (7) (80/1 -220%) New Ross	80 80/1(-220%)	(7) New Ross 80/1, Fair hurdler at best for Joseph Patrick O'Brien, winning handicap at Thurles (15.5f) in December 2022. However, he hasn't gone on from that effort, running poorly both starts the following summer. Has enough to prove for new yard after 16 months off. Record of 2-15 for Joseph O'Brien; returns from 16-month absence on debut for new yard.
1	1 (1) (100/1 -300%) Up The Straight	100 100/1(-300%)	(1) Up The Straight 100/1, Fairly useful chaser at best who bounced back to form when third at Kempton (24f, good to soft) in May last year. However, offered little on 2 starts following a break, so others are more persuasive as he reverts to hurdling after 13 months off. On a very attractive mark but the betting may prove best guide; absent for 13 months.

13:50 Plumpton Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

BATWOMEN left the impression that she still had plenty more to offer when she scored cosily, despite showing signs of greenness, at Fontwell in October. Notably, that was only her third start over hurdles and a 5lb higher mark looks potentially lenient. Macari and Bertie B are solid options for the shortlist, although any support in the betting for recent course second Inferno Sacree would also be tempting.

BATWOMEN took a step forward making a quick switch to handicaps when getting off the mark at Fontwell on her latest outing, scoring with a bit in hand, so she looks capable of following up with further progress to come. Heading the list of dangers is Through The Ages as he drops back down in grade, with C&D winner Stanley Pincombe also considered.

With the new trip a possible source of improvement, IRISH CHORUS is preferred. Baltray is second choice.

14:20 Plumpton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (1/1 +56%) Lady Balko	1 1/1(+56%)	(2) Lady Balko 1/1, On a roll in handicap hurdles last season, completing a hat-trick at up to 3m. Shaped as if needing the run when fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Bangor (20.3f, heavy) on his debut over fences 34 days ago so this point scorer can take a step forward. Three hurdle wins at up to 3m; can improve on recent chase debut now at more suitable trip.
6	6 (6) (3/1 +40%) Jessie Lightfoot	3 3/1(+40%)	(6) Jessie Lightfoot 3/1, Revitalised by a return to Henry Oliver, scoring over fences at Taunton and Southwell before a good third of 18 in 25f Cheltenham handicap 38 days ago. Ought to be thereabouts. Won at Taunton and Southwell in the spring; good 3rd in higher grade at Cheltenham latest.
5	5 (5) (7/1 +7%) Sublime Heights	7 7/1(+7%)	(5) Sublime Heights 7/1, C&D winner but yet to to his top form in two runs this autumn, fourth of 6 in handicap chase at this C&D 28 days ago. Needs to take a step forward. Three of his four chase wins have been at this track but two poor efforts this term..
4	4 (4) (9/1 -157%) Gold Clermont	9 9/1(-157%)	(4) Gold Clermont 9/1, C&D winner who looked rusty after 8 months off when sixth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (25f) 12 days ago. Reverts to fences on a lenient mark. Interesting. Out-and-out stayer who won twice over C&D in March 2023; had a spin over hurdles recently..
1	1 (1) (12/1 -50%) I See You Well	12 12/1(-50%)	(1) I See You Well 12/1, Something of a course specialist, winning 5 times over C&D, and looked rusty after 7 months off when fifth of 6 in handicap chase over C&D 28 days ago. Must enter calculations. Five-time C&D winner but well-beaten fifth of six over C&D on reappearance last month..
3	3 (3) (16/1 -167%) Born At Midnight	16 16/1(-167%)	(3) Born At Midnight 16/1, Dual C&D winner and he signed off with a good second of 11 in handicap chase at this C&D later in the spring. Much respected on his seasonal return. Won twice over C&D in March and progressed again when second here the following month..

14:20 Plumpton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

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

With ground conditions likely to be ideal, dual C&D winner BORN AT MIDNIGHT is a solid contender bidding to add to his tally despite going up 5lb for a one-length defeat on his most recent attempt over track and trip in April. Jessie Lightfoot could pose the selection the most problems with Imogen Mathias now able to utilise her full 7lb claim after partnering the veteran to third at Cheltenham most recently. Lady Balko and I See You Well look the pick of the remainder.

C&D scorer GOLD CLERMONT is fancied to take a sizeable step forward from her reappearance and capitalise on a handy-looking mark. Course-specialist I See You Well rates a big threat though, with Jessie Lightfoot and Lady Balko also worthy of consideration in an intriguing handicap.

Preference is for JESSIE LIGHTFOOT who has done well since joining her current yard. Dour stayer Gold Clermont is the main danger.

9	9 (9) (11/8 +61%) Sullivan Bay	1.375 11/8(+61%)	(9) Sullivan Bay 11/8, Showed next to nothing for Henrietta Knight but back to winning ways on first start for this yard at Chelmsford (2m) in October. Ran to a similar level when third at Southwell (16.5f) next time (left with a lot to do) so fancied to make a splash from this mark back hurdling with Cobden booked. Major chance provided his recent AW Flat form is transferred back to hurdles.
1	1 (1) (10/3 +61%) Scotch On Da Rocks	3.333333 10/3(+61%)	(1) Scotch On Da Rocks 10/3, Point winner in April 2021 who failed to improve on a couple of underwhelming efforts for Ben Pauling back in the spring with the tongue tied discarded at Leicester (20.5f, good to soft) a fortnight ago. Now sent handicapping and could prove a different proposition. Open to improvement now handicapping at a modest level; looks interesting.
5	5 (5) (11/2 +31%) Ryder's Rock	5.5 11/2(+31%)	(5) Ryder's Rock 11/2, Newton Abbot winner in September and returned to form when respectable third of 15 at Exeter the following month. In the process of running poorly when departing very late at Wincanton (19.8f, good to soft) 11 days ago and blinkers now go back on. Recorded sole win at 2m1f; still needs to prove she stays 2m4f.
8	8 (8) (7/1 -133%) Ask Her Out	7 7/1(-133%)	(8) Ask Her Out 7/1, Fair bumper winner who found a handicap debutante too good for the second start in succession at Fontwell (19.1f, good) just over 2 weeks ago. Fancied to be bang there once again. Bumper scorer who is threatening to win an ordinary race over hurdles; respected.
4	4 (4) (9/1 -13%) Soldier's Leap	9 9/1(-13%)	(4) Soldier's Leap 9/1, Runner-up in a point in May but well held all 3 starts over hurdles, albeit showing a bit more than previously at Stratford (16.3f, heavy) just over 6 weeks ago. Improvement needed now handicapping upped in distance. May improve for this step back up in distance on handicap debut.
10	10 (10) (12/1 -9%) Redbridge Rosie	12 12/1(-9%)	(10) Redbridge Rosie 12/1, Modest maiden hurdler/chaser. Off 10 months before a below-form seventh of 12 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell in September and possibly still needed the run when down the field at Huntingdon (25f, soft) 9 days ago. Handicapper given her a chance. Raced mainly at 2m7f+; something to prove back down in trip.
12	12 (12) (12/1 +14%) One Man Party	12 12/1(+14%)	(12) One Man Party 12/1, Poor maiden handicap hurdler who shaped much better than the bare result after 10 months off (had a second breathing operation) when down the field at Kempton (24.6f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago, his absence possibly behind his capitulation after he'd got to the front. Could fare better back at 2½m. Evidently thought capable of better at one stage but seems disappointing.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +0%) Just Aidan	14 14/1(+0%)	(7) Just Aidan 14/1, Hinted at ability in 3 quick runs over hurdles initially and showed some promise in a couple of handicaps towards the back end of last season. However, he offered little after 7 months off at Ffos Las (20f, heavy) 12 days ago, so the percentage call has to be to look elsewhere. Has regressive form figures (368) since handicapping.
11	11 (11) (22/1 -38%) Sawpit Samantha	22 22/1(-38%)	(11) Sawpit Samantha 22/1, Has offered little over hurdles so far and is hard to fancy on first outing since leaving Sam Drinkwater (has been off 8 months). Hood/tongue tie applied. Fitted with tongue-tie and hood on debut for new yard; check the betting.
2	2 (2) (40/1 -264%) Lyle View	40 40/1(-264%)	(2) Lyle View 40/1, Runner-up on the last of 3 outings in points and showed a bit on Rules debut at Kelso in October. Suffered heavy defeats at Chepstow/Ffos Las since but should have more to offer now sent down the handicap route back up in trip. Switch to handicap level may prompt a resurgence.
6	6 (6) (66/1 -100%) Prairie Queen	66 66/1(-100%)	(6) Prairie Queen 66/1, Has looked limited in bumpers and over hurdles. Makes handicap debut/return and will need to take an almighty step forward. Handicap debutante who is bottom of this pack on bare figures.
3	3 (3) (125/1 -279%) The Cooleen	125 125/1(-279%)	(3) The Cooleen 125/1, No great shakes for two different yards in Ireland and showed nothing on first outing for this yard (tongue tie left off) at Fontwell (17.7f, good to soft) last month. Dropped another 3 lb and can only be watched. Far from certain to stay this new trip judged on breeding.

14:55 Plumpton Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

It looks best to side with ASK HER OUT, who filled the runner-up spot at Hereford in October before occupying the same position at Fontwell last time and, from 1lb higher, she must hold every chance of going a place better. A switch to handicap company could spark improvement from Scotch On Da Rocks and he merits consideration along with Sullivan Bay, who has been in winning form on the Flat recently.

SULLIVAN BAY was immediately back in the winners' enclosure on first outing for this yard at Chelmsford in October and, having performed with credit at Southwell since, he's fancied to gain a first success over obstacles with the booking of Harry Cobden catching the eye. Ask Her Out has found a handicap debutante too good twice in a row and she may have to settle for silver again, with Scotch On Da Rocks rounding off the shortlist.

Judged on his recent Flat form, SULLIVAN BAY (nap) looks particularly well handicapped. Ask Her Out is a solid second choice.

1	1 (1) (9/4 +55%) Baron Noir	2.25 9/4(+55%)	(1) Baron Noir 9/4, Took a backward step from debut when 38 lengths eighth of 10 to Shuttle Diplomacy in listed bumper at Limerick (16.2f, heavy). Off 8 months and first for yard after leaving Daniel G. Murphy but has joined a successful stable. Raced twice in Ireland; debut form gives him a major chance on first start for new stable.

Irish point winner; promising effort (finished third) at Chepstow for new yard; respected.
2	2 (2) (5/1 +50%) Moon Monarch	5 5/1(+50%)	(2) Moon Monarch 5/1, Sea Moon gelding who is bred more for stamina than speed and shaped accordingly amidst greenness when fifth of 8 in a C&D bumper on debut in May. More like it ridden positively when third at Warwick 5 months later. Gelded prior to finishing third at Warwick; could take another step forward.
5	5 (5) (12/1 -100%) Twist Of Fatecatch	12 12/1(-100%)	(5) Twist Of Fatecatch 12/1, No Risk At All gelding. Half-brother to French hurdler/chaser Fortune du Large.

15:30 Plumpton NH Flat Race (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

KINGSTON QUEEN cost 80,000 pounds after winning an Irish point in March and she was not disgraced when filling third place on her Rules debut in a Chepstow bumper a month ago. With the benefit of that experience, David Pipe's filly could be hard to stop here. Tiptoptim also scored between the flags and should not be underestimated, while any market support for Twist Of Fatecatch would have to be noted.

TIPTOPTIM has transferred to a yard with a really good record in bumpers on the back of an Irish point win in the spring so he may well be up to the job on Rules bow. Kinston Queen also won between the flags and sets the standard on her placed effort at Chepstow, with Twist of Fatecatch another likely type on paper.

Ex-Irish BARON NOIR is taken to make a winning debut for Alan King. Kingston Queen is the biggest danger on bumper form.

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.
