1	9 1st (9) (2.75/1 -10%) Volterra		2.75 2.75/1(-10%)																															(9) Volterra 2.75/1, Promising type. Third of 11 in minor event at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft, 5/4) 16 days ago. That didn't represent a step forward compared to his promising York debut but he remains open to improvement and is high on the list here. Close up behind Zain Blue at York; beaten fav since but in a messy race.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/2 +30%) Gressington		3.5 7/2(+30%)																															(1) Gressington 7/2, Won 9-runner minor event at Southwell (7.1f, 3/1) on debut 31 days ago, well on top at the finish. More will be needed under a penalty here but he's clearly promising and is open to improvement. Debut winner at Southwell; he'll do well to concede a penalty to some of these.
3	7 3rd (7) (5/1 +0%) Speeding Bullet		5 5/1(+0%)																															(7) Speeding Bullet 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 11 in minor event at Leicester (7f, soft, 13/2) 25 days ago. Solid each-way chance. Close up in both starts since stepped up to 7f; looks to have more on his plate here.
4	11 4th (11) (5/2 +0%) Zain Blue		2.5 5/2(+0%)																															(11) Zain Blue 5/2, Twice-raced maiden. Second of 14 in maiden at York (7f, good to firm, 11/2) 43 days ago, with the re-opposing Volterra ½-length adrift in fourth. Major player. The form of both his seconds has worked out well and he has held Group entries.
5th	10 5th (10) (16/1 +0%) Wait And Hope		16 16/1(+0%)																															(10) Wait And Hope 16/1, Foaled March 7. 72,000 gns yearling, Calyx gelding. Half-brother to several winners, including smart 5f winner Raasel and useful 7f winner Star Jewel. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Yard no stranger to success with newcomers and he's one to note in the betting. Already gelded but useful pedigree and from a strong 2yo operation.
6th	2 6th (2) (50/1 -25%) Beale Street		50 50/1(-25%)																															(2) Beale Street 50/1, Foaled March 1. Zoffany gelding. Half-brother to 5f winner Zoom Star. Dam unraced. Yard can ready a newcomer but he's up against several promising types with experience on their side, so will need to be pretty decent in order to make a winning debut. Second foal; half-brother to 5f winner Zoom Star (RPR 62); already gelded.
7th	5 7th (5) (12/1 +14%) King Of Luck		12 12/1(+14%)																															(5) King Of Luck 12/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 14 in minor event at Kempton (7f, 6/1) 29 days ago. Will need to settle better if he's to make an impact in this contest. Could be one who comes into his own next season when handicapping.
8th	3 8th (3) (25/1 -108%) Desert Rhapsody		25 25/1(-108%)																															(3) Desert Rhapsody 25/1, Twice-raced maiden. 50/1, sixth of 13 in minor event at Kempton (7f) 15 days ago. In good hands and will probably come into his own in handicaps in due course. Showed more second time out at Kempton (7f AW) but was only midfield.
9th	8 9th (8) (100/1 -400%) Stanley Street		100 100/1(-400%)																															(8) Stanley Street 100/1, Once-raced maiden. Fifth of 10 in minor event at Thirsk (7f, good to soft, 12/1) on debut 28 days ago. That experience won't be wasted on him and likely to do better in time. 12-1 when midfield at Thirsk (7f, good) and this looks a stronger race than that.
10th	12 10th (12) (300/1 -20%) Tigla		300 300/1(-20%)																															(12) Tigla 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. Last of 11 in maiden (300/1) at Doncaster (7f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Readily passed over. Down the field in maidens over similar distances at Beverley (good) and Doncaster (soft).
11th	6 11th (6) (200/1 -33%) Papagrey		200 200/1(-33%)																															(6) Papagrey 200/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at Ayr (7.2f, good to soft) 16 days ago, slowly away. Probably more one for handicaps further down the line. Beaten 10l+ in races at Carlisle (6f) and Ayr (7f); no appeal in a race of this nature.
12th	4 12th (4) (100/1 -100%) Emmemmcee		100 100/1(-100%)																															(4) Emmemmcee 100/1, Foaled March 16. Mayson gelding. Dam, winner up to 1¼m (2-y-o 7f winner), half-sister to useful winner up to 1m Isla Kai. Likely to come on for the run. Dam 7f-1m2f winner (including 2yo) and half-sister to the stable's useful Isla Kai.

15:20 Redcar Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

York's Convivial Maiden has already produced four subsequent winners and ZAIN BLUE, a close second in that traditionally strong Knavesmire contest, has a golden opportunity to enhance the statistics. The Ralph Beckett-trained colt takes a big drop in class and gets the nod ahead of Convivial fourth Volterra after his surprise defeat at Ayr last month. This is deeper than the Southwell novice Gressington won on debut, so potential improver Stanley Street rates best of the rest.

VOLTERRA was just behind Zain Blue, who had the benefit of previous experience, when a promising fourth on debut in a valuable York maiden in August. Kevin Ryan's charge failed to build on that at Ayr next time but again shaped well nonetheless and is taken to make it third time lucky. Zain Blue should again be in the thick of things and rates the clear main danger ahead of Gressington, who has more on his plate than when making a winning debut at Southwell but he's clearly talented.

Unless there's money around for the newcomer Wait And Hope, this should concern VOLTERRA and Zain Blue.

1	5 1st (5) (9/2 +0%) Vafortino		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(5) Vafortino 9/2, Smart gelding. 15/2, twenty-second of 25 in handicap at Ascot (7f, good to soft) 70 days ago. Has largely acquitted himself well this season and has to enter calculations. Rare below-par run last time but he's a smart handicapper at his best over this distance.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/2 +0%) Ramazan		4.5 9/2(+0%)																															(6) Ramazan 9/2, Smart gelding. 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Chepstow in August. Good second of 24 in the Ayr Gold Cup (6f, good, 16/1) 14 days ago. Return to this trip no bad thing and he's a lively candidate. Improving 3yo who did well over 7f before just missing out in the Ayr Gold Cup.
3	1 3rd (1) (6/4 +55%) Awaal		1.5 6/4(+55%)																															(1) Awaal 6/4, Smart gelding. Course winner. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, 7½ lengths fourteenth of 20 to Johan in handicap (6/1) at Goodwood (8f, soft) 64 days ago. Good efforts prior to that and he merits consideration. Never took to cheekpieces last time but solid in big-field handicaps prior to that.
4	10 4th (10) (12/1 -20%) Purplepay		12 12/1(-20%)																															(10) Purplepay 12/1, Useful filly. 17/2 and tongue strap on for 1st time, 4½ lengths sixth of 8 to Chindit in listed race at Sandown (8f, heavy) 17 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more. Blinkers back on. Flashes of smart form; can be keen, so the assured strong gallop should help.
5th	4 5th (4) (4/1 -45%) Johan		4 4/1(-45%)																															(4) Johan 4/1, Smart gelding. Produced a career-best when winning 20-runner handicap (25/1) at Goodwood (8f, soft) on his belated seasonal reappearance in August. On that evidence, this step up in class is warranted and he's a big player. Up to this class and goes well fresh; further rain would further enhance his prospects.
6th	8 6th (8) (25/1 -25%) Zaman Jemil		25 25/1(-25%)																															(8) Zaman Jemil 25/1, Useful gelding. Latest win at Thirsk in July. 11/4, creditable second of 7 in handicap at Thirsk (6f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Has a fair bit to find with several of these rivals. Second in a Thirsk handicap no strong advert for his prospects at this level.
7th	3 7th (3) (20/1 -150%) Gweedore		20 20/1(-150%)																															(3) Gweedore 20/1, Useful gelding. 3 wins from 12 runs this year. Latest win at Newmarket in August. 11/1, good third of 24 in handicap at Ayr (6f, good) 14 days ago. Not without each-way hope up in class here. Bang-in-form front-runner; wouldn't want to get competitive too far out with Azano.
8th	9 8th (9) (250/1 -150%) Biplane		250 250/1(-150%)																															(9) Biplane 250/1, Fair mare. C&D winner. Latest win here in June. 20/1, good second of 15 in minor event at Doncaster (8f, good) 20 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. Out of her depth in this company. Capable handicapper on her day but flying far too high in a race of this nature.
9th	2 9th (2) (18/1 -29%) Azano		18 18/1(-29%)																															(2) Azano 18/1, Unreliable type. C&D winner. 5/1, won 7-runner handicap at Sandown (7f, good) 22 days ago, having benefit of enterprising ride. This is much tougher. The 2021 winner of this; got loose on the lead when winning a Sandown handicap latest.

15:55 Redcar Listed (Class 1) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

RAMAZAN ran a blinder when a neck second in the Ayr Gold Cup a fortnight ago and a seventh furlong could prompt a return to winning ways for Richard Fahey's gelding. There are dangers aplenty, however, not least last year's Lincoln winner Johan, who returned from a break with a vengeance to win a heritage handicap over 1m at Glorious Goodwood. Vafortino also commands respect.

RAMAZAN has developed into a smart handicapper this year and looks ready for this step up in class judged on his near miss in the Ayr Gold Cup a fortnight ago. He is marginally preferred to Johan, who pulled a rabbit out of the hat when landing the ultra-competitive Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood on his belated reappearance and dropping back to 7f is unlikely to be an issue. Awaal failed to fire in the Golden Mile but will be a threat if back to his best, while Vafortino also merits respect.

The 5yo VAFORTINO should get a nice tow into the race and a 70-day break heightens interest with his excellent record when fresh.

1	2 1st (2) (7/2 +46%) Painters Palette		3.5 7/2(+46%)																															(2) Painters Palette 7/2, 4 wins from 10 runs this year. 9/2, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good to soft) 16 days ago, doing well to pose such a strong challenge having come from off the pace. Back down in trip. Can give another good account. Ran right up to his best when third over 1m2f at Ayr 16 days ago.
2	1 2nd (1) (7/1 -27%) La Trinidad		7 7/1(-27%)																															(1) La Trinidad 7/1, Latest win at Doncaster in June. 18/1, ran well when third of 15 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago. Merits consideration. 8lb higher than for this summer's win and might be vulnerable when it matters.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/1 +18%) Titian		9 9/1(+18%)																															(4) Titian 9/1, 18/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at Doncaster (8f, good to soft) 3 weeks ago. Clear career-best effort required to take this. Having a solid season but might just be vulnerable again whilst kept to 1m.
4	10 4th (10) (6/1 +63%) Clear Angel		6 6/1(+63%)																															(10) Clear Angel 6/1, Latest win at Carlisle in June. 10/3, 12 lengths tenth of 13 to Ron O in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 6 weeks ago, dropping away approaching final 1f. Has to be taken seriously. Rare blip last time but likely to need his best form yet to defy his current mark.
5th	5 5th (5) (11/2 +45%) Ron O		5.5 11/2(+45%)																															(5) Ron O 11/2, C&D winner. 3 wins from 10 runs this year, latest here in August. Good second of 6 in handicap (4/1) at this course (10f, good) 18 days ago, not ideally placed the way things developed. Back down in trip. Can make presence felt. Recent C&D winner who bumped into an improver last time; not far away.
6th	6 6th (6) (12/1 -20%) Shaladar		12 12/1(-20%)																															(6) Shaladar 12/1, Again ran creditably in a race run to suit when third of 11 in handicap (8/1) at Ascot (8f, good to firm) 29 days ago. More needed to get involved. Looks on the right sort of mark but won't mind rain and has each-way claims.
7th	16 7th (16) (14/1 -40%) Give It Some Teddy		14 14/1(-40%)																															(16) Give It Some Teddy 14/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win at Chester in September. Followed a good run with a below-par one when fourteenth of 15 in handicap (9/1) at Newmarket (9f, good) 2 weeks ago. Needs to bounce back quickly. Dual winner of this race who looked on good terms when winning his penultimate start.
8th	9 8th (9) (12/1 +40%) Maysong		12 12/1(+40%)																															(9) Maysong 12/1, C&D winner. Again ran poorly when fifth of 8 in handicap (20/1) at Newmarket (9f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Others more persuasive. Exposed 6yo who is weighted up to his best form and has become a hard horse to predict.
9th	13 9th (13) (33/1 -106%) Crown Princess		33 33/1(-106%)																															(13) Crown Princess 33/1, C&D winner in August. Underperformed when tenth of 15 in handicap (18/1) at Newmarket (9f, good) 2 weeks ago. Others make more appeal. C&D winner in August but needs to bounce back after two lesser shows.
10th	15 10th (15) (33/1 -18%) Park Street		33 33/1(-18%)																															(15) Park Street 33/1, Latest win at Beverley in September. Ran too free reverted to front-running tactics when seventh of 10 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, heavy, 5/1) 17 days ago. Both turf wins at Beverley this season; would have found heavy against him last time.
11th	8 11th (8) (50/1 +0%) Barley		50 50/1(+0%)																															(8) Barley 50/1, Has beaten a total of 2 rivals in a trio of starts for the yard and can only be watched after nearly 3 months off. Fair mark on last year's form but hard to fancy on what he's achieved this season.
12th	12 12th (12) (15/2 +6%) Hortzadar		7.5 15/2(+6%)																															(12) Hortzadar 15/2, Course winner. Latest win at Ayr in September. Again ran well when second of 6 in handicap at Ayr (8f, soft, 7/2) 4 days ago, running on. Cheekpieces back on and fancied to be in the mix again with Richard Kingscote and eye-catching booking. Back to form in Class 5s the last twice and was rated much higher in the past.
13th	11 13th (11) (12/1 +40%) Strongbowe		12 12/1(+40%)																															(11) Strongbowe 12/1, Latest win at Carlisle in July. 16/1, found run of good form coming to a halt when sixth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy) 11 days ago. Others more persuasive. Competitive mark and would have found the ground too soft last time at Nottingham.
14th	17 14th (17) (125/1 -89%) Rievaulx Raver		125 125/1(-89%)																															(17) Rievaulx Raver 125/1, Latest win at Ripon in June. Again finished well held when 16¾ lengths last of 11 to Poet's Dawn in handicap at this C&D (good, 22/1) 18 days ago. Very hard to make a case for. Not ideal being out of the weights and he could be coming here in better form.
15th	7 15th (7) (18/1 +18%) Young Fire		18 18/1(+18%)																															(7) Young Fire 18/1, C&D winner. 4 wins from 16 runs this year, latest at Leicester in August. Failed to confirm the promise of recent starts when fifth of 11 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, heavy, 15/2) 11 days ago. Fancied to bounce back quickly. Entitled to run better than he did 11 days ago on soft ground that he enjoys.
16th	14 16th (14) (25/1 -194%) Poet's Dawn		25 25/1(-194%)																															(14) Poet's Dawn 25/1, 7/1, given a chance by the handicapper and capitalised in ready fashion when won 11-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 18 days ago. Percentage call is that he'll struggle to follow up from 5 lb higher. Deserved his recent course win but he's effectively 12lb higher this time.

16:30 Redcar Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Several of these are old rivals and while the likes of La Trinidad and Painters Palette both have strong claims based on their peak performances, a chance is taken that SHALADAR can gain reward for a string of consistent efforts. He has held his form well with headgear tried this season and, having been denied by only a short head over C&D on his penultimate start, another big run is expected. Last year's winner Belhaven is noted too.

An open-looking series final but marginal preference is for HORTZADAR, who took advantage of a much-reduced mark last month and can quickly regain the winning thread with Richard Kingscote on board for the first time. Provided he copes with the quick turnaround, he can get the better of Young Fire, who has enjoyed a fruitful campaign and has dropped back down to his last winning mark. Clear Angel, La Trinidad and Ron O are just a trio of others to consider.

The suggestion is HORTZADAR, who has turned a corner these last couple of weeks and is one of the better-handicapped contenders.

Significantly up in trip. Close over 1m2f penultimate start, easily best effort this term; 1m6f is step in the dark.
2	7 2nd (7) (8/1 +43%) Edge Of Darkness		8 8/1(+43%)																															(7) Edge Of Darkness 8/1, 3 wins from 7 runs this year, latest at Newmarket in August. 4/1, did no better dropped in grade when fifth of 7 in handicap at Yarmouth (14.1f, soft) 16 days ago. Hat-trick over 1m4f this season; has not fared so well in three 1m6f races since.
3	2 3rd (2) (5/1 +17%) Haliphon		5 5/1(+17%)																															(2) Haliphon 5/1, 33/1, ran poorly despite the return to a more suitable trip when ninth of 14 in handicap at Haydock (14f, good to firm) 4 weeks ago. Enters calculations. Went close at Yarmouth in July but that's been his only bright run this year.
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 -27%) Animato		7 7/1(-27%)																															(4) Animato 7/1, Course winner. 12/1, bounced back to something like the pick of his form from last season when second of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft) 16 days ago, running on. Has good 1m4f handicap form but his apparent creditable third over 1m6f may prompt caution.
5th	1 5th (1) (4/1 +43%) Quantum Leap		4 4/1(+43%)																															(1) Quantum Leap 4/1, Unreliable sort. 11/2, lost all chance at the start this time when sixth of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (14.5f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Needs treating with plenty of caution from a betting perspective. Not disgraced lately but he cannot afford to keep giving such a headstart to his rivals.
6th	9 6th (9) (12/1 +0%) Gibside		12 12/1(+0%)																															(9) Gibside 12/1, Latest win at York in July. Wasn't at his best when fifth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at York (11.8f, soft) 2 weeks ago. Back up in trip and more required. Below form lately; 9l 2nd of 3 when he tried 2m, so stamina beyond 1m4f remains unproved.
7th	3 7th (3) (25/1 -56%) Haku		25 25/1(-56%)																															(3) Haku 25/1, 14/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 5 months ago. May well need this on return. The layoff, a rare turf race and today's trip all pose serious questions.
8th	10 8th (10) (4/1 -20%) Ala Kaifi		4 4/1(-20%)																															(10) Ala Kaifi 4/1, Resumed progress to get off the mark in 10-runner handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good, 10/3) 20 days ago, suited by emphasis on stamina. Significantly up in trip. Has good chance on form with that form working out particularly well (third and fourth both next-time-out winners). Lightly raced 3yo, off the mark at Doncaster (1m2f, soft) three weeks ago.
9th	6 9th (6) (12/1 -50%) Notimeforanother		12 12/1(-50%)																															(6) Notimeforanother 12/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 10/3, failed to meet expectations on his first outing since leaving Keith Dalgleish when seventh of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (12f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Could well leave that effort behind here. Return to this longer trip may well suit; all turf starts have been on softer than good.
10th	5 10th (5) (10/1 +0%) Wor Willie		10 10/1(+0%)																															(5) Wor Willie 10/1, 9/2, fifth of 8 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good to soft) 28 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Now 2 lb below his last winning mark so would be folly to discount. 1m6f/1m4f winner; not quite at his best in 2023 but well treated if back to his 2022 level.

17:05 Redcar Handicap (Class 4) 14f Race Class Flow

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

ANIMATO was gaining all the way to the line when just denied by a neck into second over 1m4f at Pontefract last month, and he was raised 1lb for that effort. The son of Ulysess shaped as if this step up in distance could suit, so he looks the one to side with. Quantum Leap struck in this grade at Haydock in July and could get into contention after contesting a class 2 event at Doncaster last time, while Edge Of Darkness is another to watch out for.

ALA KAIFI resumed his progress to get off the mark at Doncaster just under 3 weeks ago, and with better still to come now upped further in trip, Ismail Mohammed's 3-y-o is fancied to follow up at the expense of Haliphon, who has been given a chance by the handicapper after a couple of below-par efforts. Animato and Notimeforanother round off the shortlist.

Question marks over the whole field. NOTIMEFORANOTHER is interesting with the return to 1m6f and does not look fully exposed.

1	1 1st (1) (11/1 +8%) Muker		11 11/1(+8%)																															(1) Muker 11/1, Latest win at Thirsk in August. Fifteenth of 19 in handicap (16/1) at York (5f, soft) 14 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Coaxed back to form by N Tinkler; below par latest but in a hot race; this more suitable.

Enters calculations if shrugging off latest effort. On a good mark and conditions won't both him; down in grade; one to take seriously.
4	12 4th (12) (25/1 -14%) Rose King		25 25/1(-14%)																															(12) Rose King 25/1, Lightly-raced winner. 2 wins from 4 runs this year. 25/1, respectable third of 12 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW). Off 6 months. Makes turf debut. Not totally discounted. Unexposed 3yo; h'cap debut 3rd in April represents strong form; absent since; turf debut.
5th	13 5th (13) (16/1 +20%) Paddy's Day		16 16/1(+20%)																															(13) Paddy's Day 16/1, Below form fifth of 11 in handicap (16/1) at Chester (5.1f, good to soft) 35 days ago so needs to get back on track. Ran well over C&D in June but he hasn't built on that close second; others appeal more.
6th	8 6th (8) (10/1 -25%) Mersea		10 10/1(-25%)																															(8) Mersea 10/1, Latest win at Carlisle in August. 4/1, badly hampered home turn when fifth of 8 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Player off a 1 lb lower mark. Comes here in form; easy to strike a line through latest run; may need stiffer test at 5f.
7th	14 7th (14) (25/1 -108%) Leodis Dream		25 25/1(-108%)																															(14) Leodis Dream 25/1, Won 12-runner handicap (13/2) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 35 days ago, just holding on. Not taken lightly nudged up 2 lb. Narrow winner at Beverley five weeks ago; 2lb rise manageable but other pace on show.
8th	7 8th (7) (9/2 +10%) Nelson Gay		4.5 9/2(+10%)																															(7) Nelson Gay 9/2, 4/1, landed 9-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 28 days ago, well positioned. Booking of Doyle a plus. Should continue to give a good account. 5 of his 6 wins, including both for this yard, have come on AW; opposable back on turf.
9th	15 9th (15) (15/2 +32%) Albegone		7.5 15/2(+32%)																															(15) Albegone 15/2, Latest win at Catterick in September. Below form fifth of 11 in handicap (11/2) at this C&D (good to firm) 10 days ago. Sort to bounce back. Two Catterick wins this summer but beaten fair and square in weaker race here ten days ago.
10th	4 10th (4) (10/1 +50%) One Night Stand		10 10/1(+50%)																															(4) One Night Stand 10/1, Below form tenth of 19 in handicap (66/1) at York (5f, soft) 14 days ago. Has work to do. Beaten just over one length in the Dash five runs back; 12lb lower now; down in grade.
11th	10 11th (10) (25/1 +0%) Eeh Bah Gum		25 25/1(+0%)																															(10) Eeh Bah Gum 25/1, C&D winner. Respectable seventh of 12 to Soul Seeker in handicap (28/1) at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Can give a good account. Theoretically on a fair mark at present but this looks a shade too competitive nowadays.
12th	5 12th (5) (9/1 -13%) Soul Seeker		9 9/1(-13%)																															(5) Soul Seeker 9/1, 3 wins from 13 runs this year. 5/1, won 12-runner handicap at Haydock (5f, good to firm) 29 days ago by head from Muker. Ought to be in the shake-up again. Three wins this year, most recently a narrow defeat of Muker at Haydock; one to consider.
13th	3 13th (3) (12/1 -9%) Alexi Boy		12 12/1(-9%)																															(3) Alexi Boy 12/1, Thrice-raced winner. 1 win from 3 runs this year. Winner at Lingfield in August. Fourth of 9 in minor event at Kempton (6f, 11/4) 19 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Needs to bounce back. Won a bad race (5f) at Lingfield but he did it easily; fair effort latest; unexposed.

17:35 Redcar Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

PADDY'S DAY wasn't beaten far into fifth in this grade at Chester last month and the handicapper has given him a chance by dropping him 3lb in the weights. The three-year-old now competes off an appealing mark and he ought to go very close. Alexi Boy failed to carry his penalty to success at Kempton last time, but he warrants a market check on his handicap bow. Of the remainder, Nelson Gay is the most interesting.

MERSEA arrives in very good nick and didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth at Pontefract last time out so is fancied to gain compensation off a 1 lb lower mark here. Wolverhampton-scorer Nelson Gay arrives on a handy-looking mark so rates a big threat, while fellow recent winners Soul Seeker and Leodis Dream also warrant plenty of respect in a very open sprint.

Alexi Boy still has some potential but this drop in grade can see VENTURA EXPRESS (nap) resume winning ways.

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.
