5/1(+29%)

(3) Taj Alola 20/1, Two wins from 5 runs last year. Shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when sixth of 8 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 47 days ago, making his effort earlier than ideal, the outing possibly needed as well. Headgear applied.

(1) Adjuvant 3/1, Dual winner over 7f at 2. Very good third of 7 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm, 9/1) on return 23 days ago, suited by the step up in trip. Respected.

Franz

3.2/1(+4%)
(4) Franz 3.2/1, Almanzor colt who made a winning debut at Haydock (8.2f, good to soft, 15/2) back in October, staying on well to lead last ½f. Still very green after 6 months off when second in novice event at Redcar (10f, soft) 41 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Should have more to offer.

(2) Haunted Dream 1.62/1, Returned in top form this spring, scoring comfortably at Beverley and Lingfield. Good second of 6 in handicap (10/3) at Newmarket (10f, good) 3 days ago, clear of rest. Expected to be bang there again.

Brilliant Light

3.5/1(+30%)
(1) Brilliant Light 3.5/1, 14/1, stepped up on reappearance when seventh of 15 in handicap at Meydan (12f, good) 3 months ago, late headway. Should be competitive from this mark so one for the shortlist back down in trip.
2
2nd (2) Fishable (2.5/1 +17%)
Fishable

2.5/1(+17%)
(2) Fishable 2.5/1, 3-time C&D winner. 11/2, failed to come on for his return when fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (12f, good) 22 days ago, looking awkward from 3f out. Down to his last winning mark but others appeal more on balance.
3
3rd (5) Fairmac (8.5/1 +53%)
Fairmac

8.5/1(+53%)
(5) Fairmac 8.5/1, Tough front runner who ran no sort of race and was possibly amiss when last of 13 in handicap at Chester (10.3f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Now below his last winning mark but tough to support with much confidence after recent exploits.

4th (8) Briardale (12/1 -33%)
Briardale

(8) Briardale 12/1, Enjoyed a fine 2021 scoring 3 times (including over C&D). Ran poorly after 8 months off when sixth of 8 in handicap at Ayr (10f, good, 5/1) 20 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Should be much closer to form here.
5th
5th (3) Copper And Five (8/1 -78%)
Copper And Five

8/1(-78%)
(3) Copper And Five 8/1, Course winner. 20/1, ran up to best when fourth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (8f, good to firm) 15 days ago, every chance 1f out. Up in trip. Not dismissed.
6th
6th (6) Benadalid (3.33/1 +5%)
Benadalid

3.33/1(+5%)
(6) Benadalid 3.33/1, 17/2, returned to form when second of 5 in handicap at Doncaster (10.2f, good to firm) 22 days ago, staying on inside final 1f (needing stronger gallop). won this corresponding race from a 4 lb higher mark in 2021 so he's fancied to be in the mix.
7th
7th (7) Grangeclare View (12/1 -50%)
Grangeclare View

12/1(-50%)
(7) Grangeclare View 12/1, 9/1, again ran creditably when third of 10 in handicap at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Gives his running more often than not but isn't obviously well treated.
8th
8th (4) Society Red (18/1 -29%)
Society Red

18/1(-29%)
(4) Society Red 18/1, Form was up and down on turf last term but resurgent on all-weather this winter, gaining third victory at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in February. Clearly not 100% at Newcastle the following month (lame) but he may just find a couple too good back on turf.

Al Simmo

(3) Al Simmo 3.5/1, Four wins around 6f in a very productive 2021. Off 7 months, might have needed her comeback run at Leicester 3 weeks ago.
2
2nd (4) Selby's Pride (5.5/1 +45%)
Selby's Pride

5.5/1(+45%)
(4) Selby's Pride 5.5/1, Course novice winner last August. Solid start to her handicap career when placed over 5f on first 2 starts this term and a lesser run at Chester last time is probably worth forgiving given she raced wide.
3
3rd (2) Mid Winster (5.5/1 -83%)
Mid Winster

5.5/1(-83%)
(2) Mid Winster 5.5/1, Just 1 win in 2021 but there were several fine efforts in defeat along the way, including over this C&D. Creditable fourth on 5f Beverley reappearance last month and likely to give another good account of herself.
4
4th (1) Improvised (3.5/1 -17%)
Improvised

3.5/1(-17%)
(1) Improvised 3.5/1, Three-time winner over 6f/7f last summer. Found a 6f Newmarket listed a bit too much on reappearance but every chance she'll get back on track returned to a handicap.
5th
5th (5) Sandbeck (1.88/1 +25%)
Sandbeck

1.88/1(+25%)
(5) Sandbeck 1.88/1, Took her career record to 2-3 when making a winning start for new trainer Ed Bethell in 5f Nottingham handicap (good to firm) last month. Came clear with the second on that occasion so a 6 lb rise may not stop her with further progress very much on cards.

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.
