1	7 1st (7) (4/1 +53%) Saint Davy		4 4/1(+53%)																															(7) Saint Davy 4/1, Fetched £270,000 after winning sole point start and is 3-4 under Rules, improving again to justify short odds in 3m Ludlow handicap on reappearance 4 weeks ago. In deeper now but he did that cosily and there's surely more to come. Up 6lb since Ludlow (3m) but sole loss was in a Grade 1 and he brings plenty of potential.
2	9 2nd (9) (16/1 +52%) Hermino Aa		16 16/1(+52%)																															(9) Hermino Aa 16/1, Dual hurdles winner last term. Failed to complete in a couple of handicap chases in November but back on track returned to hurdles when third of 10 over 3m at Cheltenham in December. Does need to shrug off a poor run in Lanzarote at Kempton since, though. Good third at Cheltenham (3m, soft) but beaten a long way in good 2m5f handicap at Kempton.
3	12 3rd (12) (12/1 -20%) Dubrovnik Harry		12 12/1(-20%)																															(12) Dubrovnik Harry 12/1, Got his career back on track when fourth of 20 on 3m Cheltenham reappearance but went backwards from that when well held in a valuable event at Haydock in November. Off 10 weeks. Cheltenham 4th in October prompted renewed hope but he was then soundly beaten at Haydock.
4	15 4th (15) (10/1 +38%) Good Look Charm		10 10/1(+38%)																															(15) Good Look Charm 10/1, Made a winning return to hurdles in 21f Wincanton handicap on reappearance and has shown even better form when reaching the frame at Cheltenham and Kempton (Lanzarote). Back up in trip. 4th in the 2m5f Lanzarote suggested that another crack at this sort of trip may well help.
5th	10 5th (10) (8/1 -14%) Transmission		8 8/1(-14%)																															(10) Transmission 8/1, Low-mileage 7-y-o who has made a good start for this yard, building on Ascot handicap debut third when scoring at Plumpton (25f, soft) 15 days later. 6 lb rise demands more again but he could find it. Up 6lb, having left a favourable impression with his miraculous Plumpton win (3m1f, soft).
6th	4 6th (4) (40/1 -60%) Gustavian		40 40/1(-60%)																															(4) Gustavian 40/1, Campaigned over fences since the end of 2021 but he was useful over hurdles prior to switching to the larger obstacles and he's on a competitive mark for this return to timber. Probably needs to recapture top form to win this, his first hurdle race since March 2021.
7th	13 7th (13) (7/2 +59%) Scamallach Liath		3.5 7/2(+59%)																															(13) Scamallach Liath 7/2, Irish point winner. Placed all 4 starts for Oliver Sherwood last season and has taken it up another notch for new trainer Harry Derham this time round, winning then a close second in 3m novice handicaps at Ascot. Cheekpieces refitted. This unexposed sort could have more to come. Progressive 2212 record in handicaps; stays well and surely won't go down without a fight.
8th	1 8th (1) (16/1 -129%) West Balboa		16 16/1(-129%)																															(1) West Balboa 16/1, Landed valuable handicaps at Kempton and Aintree last season. Improved again to win 3-runner Aintree conditions event on reappearance at Aintree in November. Disappointed in the Grade 1 Long Walk at Ascot 6 weeks later but not the type to stay down for long. Flopped badly as favourite for the Group 1 Long Walk at Ascot; very progressive otherwise.
9th	6 9th (6) (80/1 -100%) Barbados Buck's		80 80/1(-100%)																															(6) Barbados Buck's 80/1, Quite a useful hurdler for Paul Nicholls and struck at the second time of asking for his new stable in small-field handicap at Carlisle (25f, heavy) in December. Only a respectable third of 4 at Ayr since and surely up against it in this much more competitive affair. Easily won a three-runner race two starts back; needs to exceed all his handicap form.
14	14 |F| (14) (33/1 -83%) Tanganyika		33 33/1(-83%)																															(14) Tanganyika 33/1, Improved for the step up to staying trip when scoring at Bangor (23f) in December and respectable efforts in defeat twice since. Not obviously well handicapped, though. Penultimate start was creditable but he needs to perform much better than 13 days ago.
10th	5 10th (5) (11/1 +0%) Operation Manna		11 11/1(+0%)																															(5) Operation Manna 11/1, Took his record this season to 3-3 when edging ahead late on in C&D handicap in December. A further 6 lb rise demands more of him but he has 2 wins and a second to show from his 3 visits to Sandown. Unbeaten in three runs this term, all under Cameron Iles, two at Sandown and latest C&D.
3	3 |PU| (3) (4/1 +11%) Ed Keeper		4 4/1(+11%)																															(3) Ed Keeper 4/1, Lightly-raced 6-y-o who has been progressive in handicaps this season, winning over 3m at Newbury before shaping very well when third at Cheltenham (3m, soft) on New Year's Day, a mistake at the last probably costing him victory. Raised another 5 lb but it's likely he has more to offer. Big player. 5lb rise rubs salt in the wounds after Cheltenham blunder but he could be very useful.
8	8 |PU| (8) (33/1 -83%) Wonderwall		33 33/1(-83%)																															(8) Wonderwall 33/1, Useful bumper/hurdle winner for Richard Spencer. Not disgraced when fourth in Cheltenham novice handicap on his chase debut in November. Didn't get the chance to show what he could do back hurdling for new stable at Kempton since (badly hampered and unseated). Up in trip. Below form over fences in November; brought down early three weeks ago for new yard.
2	2 |PU| (2) (50/1 -257%) Ambitious Fellow		50 50/1(-257%)																															(2) Ambitious Fellow 50/1, Better than ever when winning a big-field 22.5f handicap hurdle at the Galway Festival in August. Well beaten in a Wetherby Grade 2 3 months later but the return to handicap company will help his cause. Won a 16-runner handicap over the extended 2m6f at Galway festival last summer.

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

ED KEEPER burst onto the scene as a progressive type when impressing at Newbury, before running with plenty of credit to finish third at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. A mistake at the last cost him valuable momentum, but the six-year-old appears capable of further improvement, despite the handicapper raising him another 5lb. West Balboa commands the utmost respect back in handicap company having disappointed when sent off favourite for the Long Walk at Ascot. She showed her very best in similar contests last season, especially when dominating proceedings at Aintree in the spring, and Tristan Durrell's 3lb claim aids her cause further. Recent Ludlow winner Saint Davy and Transmission, who once again teams up with Joe Anderson after their unbelievable recovery/victory at Plumpton, are others with viable credentials.

A last-flight mistake cost ED KEEPER momentum at a crucial stage at Cheltenham last time and this progressive 6-y-o can show he's still ahead of the handicapper. Fellow low-mileage improver Saint Davy rates an obvious danger on the back of last month's Ludlow reappearance success. Scamallach Liath and Transmission are others heading in the right direction and complete the shortlist.

In a race that's jam-packed with appealing candidates, TRANSMISSION is taken to win with further improved form for his new yard.

1	10 1st (10) (10/1 +29%) Java Point		10 10/1(+29%)																															(10) Java Point 10/1, 12/1, first run since leaving Tom George when creditable fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f, good to soft) 63 days ago. Back to a potentially lenient mark and not completely dismissed. Remains nicely handicapped on best form; second run for new stable; not dismissed.
2	4 2nd (4) (4/1 +60%) Certainly Red		4 4/1(+60%)																															(4) Certainly Red 4/1, Likeable sort who completed a hat-trick last season, scoring twice over 25f at Wincanton either side of a victory at this track. Generally better than the result this season and he's back to his last winning mark. On last winning mark and the return to Sandown is another plus; one to consider.
3	8 3rd (8) (11/2 +31%) Dom Of Mary		5.5 11/2(+31%)																															(8) Dom Of Mary 11/2, Shaped well a couple of times before putting up a career-best effort to score at Plumpton last month, going clear impressively. Should go well again if the race is run to suit. Recorded a 10l success in the Sussex National at Plumpton last month; big player.
4	6 4th (6) (15/2 +46%) Bangers And Cash		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(6) Bangers And Cash 15/2, Progressed into a useful staying chaser last season, winning 3 of his last 4 starts. Back to form when third in first-time cheekpieces at Newbury and fairly treated if he can build on that. Ran respectably in first-time cheekpieces at Newbury five weeks ago; not ruled out.
5th	1 5th (1) (3/1 +50%) Blackjack Magic		3 3/1(+50%)																															(1) Blackjack Magic 3/1, ook very well to chasing for current yard last term and he continued his progress on his return in 11-runner handicap at Wincanton in November. Hit the frame at Ascot next time and should be on the premises again. 3-6 over fences; useful form in two notable handicaps this term; major contender.
6th	7 6th (7) (4/1 +75%) Grozni		4 4/1(+75%)																															(7) Grozni 4/1, Three-time hurdles winner for Charles Byrnes and didn't need to improve to get off the mark over fences at Downpatrick on final start for that yard in August. Runner-up both outings for current stable and may yet do better. Solid efforts under 7lb amateur for new yard; interesting with Harry Cobden taking over.
7th	2 7th (2) (12/1 +14%) Fortescue		12 12/1(+14%)																															(2) Fortescue 12/1, Useful chaser who is hard to rely on but put up one of his better efforts when second at Haydock last time. Has scored over C&D in the past, so he's no forlorn hope. All wins at 3m but may need further now; trip aside, his current mark is handy.
8th	3 8th (3) (20/1 +50%) Moroder		20 20/1(+50%)																															(3) Moroder 20/1, Good strike rate over fences and resumed winning ways in the Grimthorpe Chase at Doncaster in March. Ended campaign with a career-best second in Bet365 Gold Cup here but questions to answer now after 3 poor runs this season (reportedly bled on reappearance). Badly out of sorts this term but the fitting of tongue-tie may prompt a revival.

15:45 Sandown Handicap Chase (Class 2) 24f Race Class Flow

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

A taking winner of the Badger Beer last November and a respectable fourth in a valuable contest at Ascot since, BLACKJACK MAGIC sets the standard as he looks to notch up a fourth victory over fences. The progressive nine-year-old gets the vote ahead of easy Sussex National winner Dom Of Mary, as well as the in-form Kestrel Valley, who has scored on four of her last five starts. Fortescue has hinted at a return to his best form on both starts this season, while Bangers And Cash is another dour stayer to note.

KESTREL VALLEY is still on the up and, with some fluent jumping, she might be able to build up an unassailable lead under positive tactics, so she's marginally preferred to Blackjack Magic, who arrives in good order. Dom of Mary is also considered on the back of a career best.

In-form novice chaser GROZNI (nap) may well show further improvement with Harry Cobden booked. Blackjack Magic is feared most.

1	7 1st (7) (13/8 +90%) Sixmilebridge		1.625 13/8(+90%)																															(7) Sixmilebridge 13/8, £100,000 buy after finishing runner-up completed start in Irish points (Apr 2). The stable had a short-priced winning bumper debutant at Doncaster last week so a market move for this one would look significant. Point second has worked out quite well; new yard gets its share of bumper winners.
2	1 2nd (1) (11/1 -144%) Juby Ball		11 11/1(-144%)																															(1) Juby Ball 11/1, Made a winning start to his career in the mud at Ffos Las in November. Will need to step up on that form to follow up under a penalty but he has the potential for better. Perfect start at Ffos Las in November, winning going away; could be a useful prospect.
3	5 3rd (5) (20/1 -167%) Pony Soprano		20 20/1(-167%)																															(5) Pony Soprano 20/1, €135,000 Blue Bresil gelding. Dam, well held in bumpers, closely related to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Royal Player. From a leading stable and would come into it if the betting vibes are strong. 135,000euros 3yo; powerful stable is operating at 15% in bumpers; worth a market check.
4	4 4th (4) (9/1 +25%) Wellington Arch		9 9/1(+25%)																															(4) Wellington Arch 9/1, Brother to bumper winner and followed suit at the first attempt in 10-runner event at Worcester in October. Creditable third of 6 under a penalty at Ascot since. Followed Worcester win with good third at Ascot; likely to take another step forward.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 -300%) Touquet		5 5/1(-300%)																															(3) Touquet 5/1, €185,000 son of Kapgarde who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut over C&D (good to soft) in November. Given a bit of time since. Looks another useful prospect for his top stable. Showed good attitude to make winning debut over C&D in November; leading contender.
6th	6 6th (6) (25/1 -213%) Seek Him There		25 25/1(-213%)																															(6) Seek Him There 25/1, Out of a bumper winner and offered plenty of encouragement when second at Market Rasen in November. Could be more to come. Promising start when second at 22-1 at Market Rasen; not discounted but this is tougher.
7th	2 7th (2) (5/2 +44%) San Frandisco		2.5 5/2(+44%)																															(2) San Frandisco 5/2, Irish point winner who made a promising start under Rules, finishing runner-up at Chepstow before comfortably going one better at Haydock (heavy) just after Christmas. Penalty unlikely to prevent a bold bid. Point winner; ran away with four-runner bumper at Haydock in December; high on the list.
8th	8 8th (8) (25/1 +0%) Noir Du Tay		25 25/1(+0%)																															(8) Noir Du Tay 25/1, Policy Maker gelding. Dam (h92), made frame sole start over hurdles, half-sister to smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Grand Vision. Yard among the winners in recent days but is only 4-63 in bumpers in the last 5 seasons. Only 4yo in the line-up; receives 12lb WFA but stable has a modest strike-rate in bumpers.

16:20 Sandown NH Flat Race (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow

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

A comfortable winner of a decent contest at Ffos Las on debut last November, JUBY BALL looks a five-year-old with potential, and the fact his half-brother Fifty Ball won here is a plus. The booking of James Bowen is significant and he is narrowly preferred to Touquet, who scored over C&D on debut in November, and easy Haydock scorer San Frandisco. Wellington Arch is another open to improvement on the back of a promising third at Ascot.

There should be more to come from November's C&D debut scorer TOUQUET, who is narrowly preferred to Jamie Snowden's San Frandisco. Ben Pauling had a well-backed bumper debut winner at Doncaster last week so a market move for his point recruit Sixmilebridge would bring him into the reckoning.

Preference for WELLINGTON ARCH is only slight, but he was a good third to two promising types at Ascot and remains unexposed.

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.
