0.57/1(-30%)
(3) Hudson De Grugy 0.57/1, Ex-French bumper winner who made promising start for new yard when second of 8 in C&D juvenile hurdle (heavy) 28 days ago. The one to beat with improvement likely.
2
2nd (1) (5/1 -100%) Hystery Bere
5/1(-100%)
(1) Hystery Bere 5/1, Fairly useful form over hurdles in France during the summer, winning when last seen in July. Wears a tongue strap. New stable enjoying a good season. Respected.
3
3rd (5) (8/1 +50%) Warranty
8/1(+50%)
(5) Warranty 8/1, Fairly useful 2m winner on Flat for Mark Johnston. Some promise when sixth on hurdle bow at Wetherby in November and didn't get the chance to show what he could do at Kempton since (carried out).
4
4th (2) (5.5/1 +69%) Cloud Thunder
5.5/1(+69%)
(2) Cloud Thunder 5.5/1, Fairly useful Flat maiden who was well held but showed a bit pitched into a Doncaster Grade 2 on first go over hurdles. 33/1, ran out after the second at Kempton 6 days ago. Cheekpieces on now.
5th
5th (4) (28/1 +30%) Letter At Dawn
28/1(+30%)
(4) Letter At Dawn 28/1, Hinted at ability when debut ninth in 12f Flat maiden (66/1) at the Curragh for Brendan Duke 57 days ago. More needed for new yard now going hurdling.
LTO Selection:
12:05 Sandown Conditions Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(6) Whitehotchillifili 1.62/1, From a yard in form and she posted a career best when second in C&D handicap (heavy) 29 days ago. Likely to go well.
2
2nd (1) (1.2/1 -45%) Stormy Ireland
1.2/1(-45%)
(1) Stormy Ireland 1.2/1, Smart dual Grade 3 hurdle winner for Willie Mullins last season. Useful second over fences first 2 runs for this yard and this easier than Cheltenham Grade 2 she contested back hurdling last time.
3
3rd (5) (12/1 -100%) Robin Gold
12/1(-100%)
(5) Robin Gold 12/1, Quirky ex-Irish mare who is thriving for new yard, making it 4 wins in last 5 starts when seeing off 3 rivals in Bangor handicap 22 days ago. More needed here but can't discount in current mood.
4
4th (2) (33/1 +0%) Desaray Girl
33/1(+0%)
(2) Desaray Girl 33/1, Won her 3 outings over hurdles last term, including Haydock listed Ended the campaign in disappointing fashion, though, and she's fared no better in 2 comeback runs for new yard. Has had wind op.
5th
5th (4) (12/1 +40%) Quick Wave
12/1(+40%)
(4) Quick Wave 12/1, Developed into a useful chaser for this yard last term and in process of running well when falling 2 out in Exeter handicap chase on return. Blinkered first time back hurdling. Goes well on heavy.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (14/1 +0%) Flow Away
14/1(+0%)
(3) Flow Away 14/1, Did well over hurdles last year, winning twice and runner-up in Grade 2 mares' novice final outing. Well held in Listed chase on return but respected back hurdling.

1
1st (8) (14/1 +36%) Doitforthevillage
14/1(+36%)
(8) Doitforthevillage 14/1, Useful at best, but signs of decline last term and hasn't shown much of his old spark in a handful of runs this time round either, never travelling well just 4 days ago at Newbury.
2
2nd (6) (5/1 +29%) Aintree My Dream
5/1(+29%)
(6) Aintree My Dream 5/1, Losing run is mounting up but knocked on the door on 2 of his 3 starts over fences in recent months, latterly a veterans' event at Lingfield. Conditions no problem and not ruled out.
3
3rd (2) (7.5/1 -7%) Sir Jack Yeats
7.5/1(-7%)
(2) Sir Jack Yeats 7.5/1, Fairly useful hunter chaser who landed 3m handicap chase at Fakenham in October. Excelled himself from 3 lb out of the weights at Aintree next time and he needs to back that up to feature here.
4
4th (3) (8/1 +33%) The Dubai Way
8/1(+33%)
(3) The Dubai Way 8/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler/chaser at his best who took a step back in the right direction when second of 7 in handicap chase at Fontwell (21.6f, soft, 10/1) 25 days ago. More needed.
5th
5th (5) (11/1 +21%) Mystical Clouds
11/1(+21%)
(5) Mystical Clouds 11/1, Kempton scorer in February who made encouraging return for new yard when fourth at Stratford only to turn in modest sixth at Kempton last time. Needs to bounce back.
|F|
|F| (4) (5/1 +33%) Speredek
5/1(+33%)
(4) Speredek 5/1, It's sixteen runs since last win in 2018, but did go with more spark than for a while when fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (17f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Switches back over fences.
|U|
|U| (9) (1.5/1 +40%) Destinee Royale
1.5/1(+40%)
(9) Destinee Royale 1.5/1, Bumper winner who made a successful debut over fences when last seen at Market Rasen (19.2f, heavy) in February. She's entitled to progress as a chaser and has leading claims if ready to roll.
LTO Selection:
13:15 Sandown Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(4) Ibleo 1.62/1, Defied huge absence to make winning chase debut at Wincanton last term and easily followed up at Huntingdon. Second all 3 starts since, latterly at Cheltenham last month and he's a big player here.
2
2nd (7) (16/1 -33%) Paddy's Poem
16/1(-33%)
(7) Paddy's Poem 16/1, Maiden hurdler but positive profile over fences, adding third success to the tally at Fakenham (2m) last November. Good second over C&D 13 months ago but this is a tougher ask on return.
3
3rd (5) (10/1 -33%) Hollywoodien
10/1(-33%)
(5) Hollywoodien 10/1, Proved himself still capable of useful form when successful at Hereford (2m) in March, travelling well for the re-addition of cheekpieces. 6 lb higher now but he returns with yard in red-hot form.
4
4th (6) (5/1 +17%) Early Du Lemo
5/1(+17%)
(6) Early Du Lemo 5/1, Off the mark for this yard at Lingfield (2m) in January 2019 and proved he retains his ability with a fine second behind stablemate Darebin over C&D last month. Subsequent Ascot fall best overlooked.
5th
5th (1) (4.5/1 -13%) Moonlighter
4.5/1(-13%)
(1) Moonlighter 4.5/1, Improved over fences last term and took another step forward when runner-up in Haldon Gold Cup on return in November. Fell at Newbury subsequently and he's well worth another chance.
6th
6th (2) (7/1 +42%) San Benedeto
7/1(+42%)
(2) San Benedeto 7/1, Very smart chaser on his day who wasn't at his best returning from 5 months off at Newbury (19.8f) in November. However, went with zest for a long way and he may well be sharper with that behind him.
7th
7th (3) (16/1 +20%) Born Survivor
16/1(+20%)
(3) Born Survivor 16/1, Not disgraced in 3 good races last season but strictly below his best on 2 of his 3 starts so far this campaign, tailed off when slow 3 out at Cheltenham latest. Mark is easing all the time at least.
8th
8th (8) (14/1 -27%) Darebin
14/1(-27%)
(8) Darebin 14/1, Temperamental sort who bounced back to land a 6-runner event at Sandown in December, from stablemate Early Du Lemo. Rise makes it tougher and there's no guarantee he'll be in the same form.
LTO Selection:
13:50 Sandown Handicap Chase (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(4) Metier 1.75/1, Useful on Flat and has looked impressive on both hurdling outings, notably when landing a 6-runner affair at Ascot 43 days ago from Tile Tapper, well on top at the finish. More to come.
2
2nd (5) (7/1 +42%) Shakem Up'arry
7/1(+42%)
(5) Shakem Up'arry 7/1, Some pretty useful efforts in defeat last term and made no mistake on Ffos Las return (2m, heavy). Better than result when fourth at Haydock on handicap debut and well worth his place in this company.
3
3rd (7) (22/1 +33%) Tile Tapper
22/1(+33%)
(7) Tile Tapper 22/1, Bumper winner who made positive start over hurdles when second to Metier at Ascot 43 days ago. Hard to imagine he'll turn the tables with that rival here, however.
4
4th (2) (5/1 +23%) Do Your Job
5/1(+23%)
(2) Do Your Job 5/1, Irish point winner who has done well over hurdles so far this term, scoring twice before a good second in listed event at Haydock last time. Could do better still.
5th
5th (8) (3/1 -9%) Galice Macalo
3/1(-9%)
(8) Galice Macalo 3/1, Successful on first couple of outings this season and improved further when an excellent second in C&D handicap 28 days ago. Another bold showing expected from this progressive mare.
6th
6th (3) (25/1 -39%) Grandeur D'ame
25/1(-39%)
(3) Grandeur D'ame 25/1, Created very favourable impression when a decisive winner at Newton Abbot, then not discredited when runner-up at Cheltenham. This is obviously a tricky assignment on hurdling debut, though.
|PU|
|PU| (6) (8/1 +20%) Smurphy Enki
8/1(+20%)
(6) Smurphy Enki 8/1, Impressive bumper winner who left hurdling debut form well behind when scoring in novice at Plumpton 26 days ago, well on top at the finish. Can't be ruled out up in class.
LTO Selection:
14:25 Sandown Maiden Hurdle (Class 1) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(6) Seeyouatmidnight 10/1, Classy chaser at his peak and proved there is still plenty of life left in him when landing a 6-runner veterans event at Carlisle in March. Pulled up in similar event at Haydock 9 months on, though.
2
2nd (2) (8/1 +0%) Crosspark
8/1(+0%)
(2) Crosspark 8/1, Game winner of Eider in 2019 and right back in the groove this season, finding only one too good for a third consecutive start in London National here (18.8f) 4 weeks ago. High on the shortlist.
3
3rd (12) (20/1 -67%) Sir Ivan
20/1(-67%)
(12) Sir Ivan 20/1, Not the easiest to catch right but is less exposed than most he'll meet in these events and confirmed his reappearance promise when runner-up in a handicap chase at Leicester (20.2f). Respected.
4
4th (5) (8.5/1 +39%) Sametegal
8.5/1(+39%)
(5) Sametegal 8.5/1, Useful chaser who shaped as if still in good form when sixth of 18 in Grand Sefton Chase at Aintree (21.1f, heavy, 17/2) 28 days ago, one paced latter stages. Respected back in veteran company.
5th
5th (10) (5/1 +44%) Potters Legend
5/1(+44%)
(10) Potters Legend 5/1, Useful chaser who made a winning reappearance at Warwick before excellent second in Cheltenham Grade 3 handicap. Should remain competitive.
6th
6th (17) (14/1 +0%) Regal Flow
14/1(+0%)
(17) Regal Flow 14/1, Midlands National winner in 2018 who ran a cracker when narrowly denied by Jepeck in this 12 months ago. Has shaped with some encouragement both starts this season and he's an each-way player.
7th
7th (14) (16/1 -45%) Jepeck
16/1(-45%)
(14) Jepeck 16/1, Won 3 times last season, including this corresponding race, but hasn't returned in anything like the same form this time around. Hopes pinned on first-time cheekpieces/tongue tie sparking a revival.
8th
8th (4) (8/1 -23%) Valtor
8/1(-23%)
(4) Valtor 8/1, Couple of good efforts last term and went with more encouragement than the result implies on his reappearance, but ran poorly at Warwick last time, hanging/jumping right. Eased 3 lb.
9th
9th (11) (14/1 -17%) Fingerontheswitch
14/1(-17%)
(11) Fingerontheswitch 14/1, Consistent veteran who enjoyed excellent time of it last season and should strip fitter for last month's Haydock return. Yard going really well and not ruled out in refitted tongue tie.
|F|
|F| (7) (12/1 +45%) Burtons Well
12/1(+45%)
(7) Burtons Well 12/1, Put his best foot forward to score in cheekpieces at Doncaster on his final outing last season, but made a dismal return when pulled up at Haydock. Blinkers on for the 1st time.
|U|
|U| (1) (22/1 -57%) Minellacelebration
22/1(-57%)
(1) Minellacelebration 22/1, Likeable type who resumed winning ways in Summer Cup at Uttoxeter in July and improved again when readily following up at Aintree 3 months later. Close up when unseating rider in Becher latest.
10th
10th (16) (12/1 +52%) Ballydine
12/1(+52%)
(16) Ballydine 12/1, Useful chaser at best but lightly raced and little form of late, failing to come on for his reappearance when pulled up at Haydock last time. Blinkers now replace the cheekpieces.
|PU|
|PU| (15) (6.5/1 +28%) Strong Pursuit
6.5/1(+28%)
(15) Strong Pursuit 6.5/1, Fragile sort who ran well returning from 11 months off when third of 7 to Potters Legend at Warwick (3m), though he looked rather awkward at times and is far from certain to go the right way.
|PU|
|PU| (9) (22/1 -38%) Theatre Guide
22/1(-38%)
(9) Theatre Guide 22/1, Last win came over 4 years ago but he was a close third in this 12 months ago and clearly still retains plenty of enthusiasm judged on his second to Potters Legend at Warwick (3m) last time.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (33/1 -32%) Gold Present
33/1(-32%)
(3) Gold Present 33/1, Smart handicap chaser in his peak who refused to race on his reappearance here. Got back on track to some extent when fourth of 7 to Potters Legend at Warwick since.

1
1st (6) (3/1 +25%) Guard Your Dreams
3/1(+25%)
(6) Guard Your Dreams 3/1, Equipped with a first-time hood, he made it 2-3 over hurdles in good style in a heavy-ground Bangor novice last time. Mark for this handicap debut looks fair and he's high on the shortlist.
2
2nd (3) (6/1 -9%) Friend Or Foe
6/1(-9%)
(3) Friend Or Foe 6/1, More end product fitted with cheekpieces the last twice, latterly producing a career-best with a wide-margin victory at Wincanton (15.3f, soft). Hit with a 13 lb rise, but he still has low mileage.
3
3rd (1) (2.75/1 +8%) Monsieur Lecoq
2.75/1(+8%)
(1) Monsieur Lecoq 2.75/1, Successul on return at Ffos Las last term and though below par both starts so far this season, he is of interest back here (excelled both runs over this C&D during 2018/19 campaign).
4
4th (4) (8/1 -23%) The Pink'n
8/1(-23%)
(4) The Pink'n 8/1, Ended last season on a high, bagging a heavy-ground Stratford handicap, and has hit the crossbar on each of her 3 starts this time round, including in listed company at Newbury. Couldn't rule out.
5th
5th (5) (8/1 +33%) Totterdown
8/1(+33%)
(5) Totterdown 8/1, Useful hurdler who notched second C&D success last winter. Below par so far this season, but the handicapper has shown mercy and he'll be a danger to all if the first-time cheekpieces work the oracle.
6th
6th (2) (11/1 -69%) Highway One O Two
11/1(-69%)
(2) Highway One O Two 11/1, Made up into a smart novice hurdler last term, signing off with an all-the-way Kempton Grade 2 success. Returns to this sphere following a couple of non-completions over fences and merits respect.
7th
7th (9) (50/1 -79%) Ruacana
50/1(-79%)
(9) Ruacana 50/1, Very useful at his peak and fine start for new yard when landing back-to-back course handicaps last winter. However, reappearance effort was low-key and he's 3 lb 'wrong' at the weights here.
|PU|
|PU| (7) (7.5/1 +6%) Gemirande
7.5/1(+6%)
(7) Gemirande 7.5/1, Successful over fences in France last year and opened account on these shores in 2m Wetherby novice hurdle last time. However, probably a fortunate winner there and more needed on this handicap bow.
|PU|
|PU| (8) (66/1 -313%) Zamperini
66/1(-313%)
(8) Zamperini 66/1, Dual Plumpton winner in 2019, including on handicap debut in this sphere when last seen in September of that year. 6 lb rise fair, but subsequent absence and forecast conditions are area of concern.

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.
