LTO Selection:

17:35 Salisbury Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

This has the stamp of being an informative maiden, with NOTTA NOTHER the most appealing debutant. The son of Havana Grey, who cost 70,000 euros as a yearling, has an early entry in the Redcar Two Year Old Trophy and can give Richard Hannon some just reward on a very busy weekend for the team. Serried Ranks is penalised for a winning a three-runner race at Nottingham, so well-related newcomers Reveiller and Magic Force might pose more serious threats.

SERRIED RANKS only won a 3-runner event at Nottingham on debut but did so in rather taking fashion and is fancied to defy a penalty with further improvement anticipated. Mediate Alexander receives nearly a stone from the selection and is also expected to step forward from her first start, whilst Rockinthefreeworld perhaps makes most appeal of several interesting newcomers.

Reveiller is a newcomer of note but SERRIED RANKS looked promising at Nottingham and can defy his penalty.

Estate

9/1(-80%)
(5) Estate 9/1, Another creditable effort when second of 9 in maiden at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 15 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. More exposed than most here but mark looks fair back in handicap.
Doesn't look to be progressing and the addition of a tongue-tie needs to turn things round.

Betweenthesticks

Ended 2022 on the up; yet to find top gear this year but this is a drop in class.

Bolted up at Bath on her h'cap debut; up 10lb in a better race but unexposed.

Promise twice before straightforward task latest; more to come; opening mark looks fair.
5th

8.5/1(+29%)
(6) Annie Maher 8.5/1, In frame 4 of 5 starts at 2 yrs and shaped as if better for run when sixth of 8 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 25 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Others have achieved more.
Consistent but not progressing; needs to leave reappearance effort behind her to take this.

6th (8) Fragrance (66/1 +0%)
Fragrance

66/1(+0%)
(8) Fragrance 66/1, Winner at Catterick as an early 2-y-o for Charlie & Mark Johnston but went wrong way as a juvenile and has plenty to prove on debut for new yard.
5f win at Catterick for the Johnstons last May; mixed bag after; opposable on stable debut.
7th
7th (3) Just A Spark (3/1 +70%)
Just A Spark

3/1(+70%)
(3) Just A Spark 3/1, Progressive on AW, completing a hat-trick in 5f Southwell handicap in April. Not disgraced when mid-field in 18-runner handicap at York (5f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals.
Three AW wins this year; midfield in hot York handicap last week; may do better.
8th
8th (7) Lady Jane Grey (8/1 +60%)
Lady Jane Grey

8/1(+60%)
(7) Lady Jane Grey 8/1, Successful on debut at Lingfield (5f, turf) early last season. Similar form in nurseries at the back end of last season but concedes race fitness to her rivals after 6 months off.
Didn't progress from her winning 2yo debut (5f, good); career best required in this field.
9th
9th (9) Optiva Star (18/1 +18%)
Optiva Star

18/1(+18%)
(9) Optiva Star 18/1, Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Below form when eighth of 10 in maiden at Southwell (6.1f, 15/2) 16 days ago and further drop in trip doesn't look obviously suitable. Opposable.
Inconsistent eight-race maiden; drop to 5f not enough to tempt.
10th
10th (4) Wakai Umi (25/1 -79%)
Wakai Umi

25/1(-79%)
(4) Wakai Umi 25/1, Won back-to-back events at Dundalk in October and Wolverhampton in November. Did too much too soon in search of hat-trick at Wolverhampton last time and is worth a market check after another absence.
Three wins over 5f to her name but absent since a poor run at Wolverhampton in January.
LTO Selection:

18:10 Salisbury Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

CLUEDO is noteworthy from the foot of the weights after an impressive display to get off the mark at Bath on her handicap debut. The daughter of Kodiac won by five and a half lengths and it's hard to evaluate how much more she has to give. The handicapper suggests 10lb puts her in the bracket of a big improver and she could be too progressive for this bunch. Fair Wind and Estate are others to monitor in the betting, while Just A Spark is reliable enough to consider.

CLUEDO has been handed a hefty rise in the weights after a facile success at Bath last week, but her trainer consistently does well with similar types and it would be surprising if she'd already hit the apex of her progress this time. Handicap newcomer Fair Wind landed short odds last time and looks the sort to benefit from a strongly-run sprint, whilst Estate, after a brace of good efforts can make the frame again.

This is much tougher than the race CLUEDO (nap) won at Bath ten days ago but she did it so well that she's fancied to follow up.

Be Frank

6.5/1(+28%)

(3) Leadenhall 0.8/1, Made a promising start when running-on fifth of 10 in minor event at Sandown on debut. Still rough around the edges when turned over a short odds at Chelmsford on next start and may well do better having been gelded during his 7-month absence, though drop to 6f doesn't look an obvious plus.
Beaten favourite in both 7f runs at two but in strong races; more to come this year.

Dam a 5f winner (RPR 80), herself a sister to a 5f winner; likely best watched on debut.
LTO Selection:

18:40 Salisbury Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

It's still early days for LEADENHALL and he can deliver on the promise he showed as a juvenile, despite him being turned over at odds-on in a novice stakes at Chelmsford when last seen. He ran too freely that day but has been gelded now so a more focused effort can be expected as he drops down a furlong. Okami appeals most of the remainder with experience, while Desert Voice and Bondi Bay are interesting newcomers to monitor in the betting.

OKAMI was well found in the market and perhaps needed the experience more than the betting predicted when a fast-finishing third at Southwell earlier this month. He's taken to improve enough to get off the mark with that experience under his belt. Leadenhall who shaped like a strong stayer over 7f twice as a juvenile can emerge as the chief threat, whilst William Haggas newcomer Desert Voice also commands attention.

Awtaar still has potential as a sprinter but LEADENHALL can make a winning return having been gelded since last seen.

On the up last spring but finished 2022 with two lesser runs; tough task on his return.
LTO Selection:

19:10 Salisbury Listed (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

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

RUN TO FREEDOM, a C&D winner here last summer before finishing a shock runner-up in a Group 1 at Ascot, is better than he showed at Haydock on his reappearance and could take some stopping on the assumption that he will be sharper for that blowout. Rohaan would be an obvious threat on his best form but has tended to need his return runs, so it may be that dual Group 2 winner Sandrine is a better alternative on this occasion, with Marbaan also respected.

SANDRINE appeals as the type to make a better 4-y-o and arrives on the back of a solid showing behind the classy Sacred in the Chartwell Stakes at Lingfield, so she gets the nod ahead of Run To Freedom, who should be spot on after a low-key return at Haydock. Rohaan is another one to consider.

A cracking Listed event in which RUN TO FREEDOM is marginally preferred to Sandrine and Sam Maximus.

LTO Selection:

19:40 Salisbury Stakes (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

None of these have looked convincing so far, including LADY RASCAL, who hasn't come close to living up to her 270,000gns purchase fee. For all that, George Boughey's filly offered more encouragement when third at Newbury on her handicap bow and may prove the answer to this tricky affair. Victoria County took a step backwards at Ripon but his earlier promise makes him a player, while Savvy Brilliance is a potential improver over this longer trip.

A competitive class 5 but LADY RASCAL arguably has the most potential of those towards the top of the ratings so gets the vote. Climate Precedent and Manuelito head the dangers.

Third in a recent 17-runner Newbury handicap, LADY RASCAL might be the answer.

Papa Ricco

4/1(+27%)
(4) Papa Ricco 4/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Nottingham in April. Creditable third of 10 in handicap at Beverley (9.9f, good to soft, 5/1) 30 days ago. Up in trip. Big shout.

LTO Selection:

20:10 Salisbury Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Robusto makes his handicap bow after barely landing a glove on any of his rivals in his career to date, but he should be respected given he hails from the Sir Mark Prescott yard and this would be a quintessential Prescott training performance. KHAL is perhaps a safer option, though, after his second of seven over 1m2f at Beverley and he should enjoy the 2lb drop in the ratings and this extra yardage. Papa Ricco is also noted.

ROBUSTO didn't show much in 3 quick runs last summer but appeals as the type to leave that form well behind now handicapping given his connections. Papa Ricco will be suited by this longer trip so should have more to offer in handicaps, while Khal was rather unlucky to bump into a subsequent winner at Beverley.

Robusto, up markedly in trip, could take off, but on recent evidence GRAHAM is easier to fancy. Papa Ricco is feared most.

LTO Selection:

20:40 Salisbury Handicap (Class 4) 14f Race Class Flow

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

This appears to be a competitive heat with plenty of live chances but the nod goes to CRESCENT LAKE, who was a good winner over this trip at Goodwood. Gary Moore's representative has been handed a 3lb hike in the ratings as a result of that effort, and that could prove lenient. Seal Of Solomon has been in good form on the all-weather and he deserves respect, while Claritudo should also be thereabouts.

CRESCENT LAKE arrives on the up for Gary Moore so is taken to defy a 3 lb rise in the weights for his recent Goodwood success and record win number three of the season. Seal Of Solomon is feared most on the back of his good Southwell second ahead of Claritudo, who didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth at Chester last time.

2022 winner SONGO was not firing on all cylinders when last seen in the autumn but he has always run well when fresh and gets the nod.

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. 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.
