Two promising efforts for current yard; step back up in trip a major plus; unexposed.
6	6 (6) (7/1 +30%) Kaka's Cousin		7 7/1(+30%)																															(6) Kaka's Cousin 7/1, Bit free, improved for testing ground when winning a novice hurdle at Kelso by 8 1/2l last time; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on any; progressive and longer trip should suit on handicap debut. Easy Kelso winner; this step back up in trip is a plus; might have been let in lightly.
13	13 (13) (7/1 +42%) Four Springs		7 7/1(+42%)																															(13) Four Springs 7/1, Improved a little up in trip after wind op when second beaten 5l in a novice hurdle at Warwick latest; effective 2m-2m3f, acts on S and G; more to come under rules for good yard, point winner likely to get further in time. Bumped into useful type at Warwick two weeks ago and may not have reached ceiling just yet.
8	8 (8) (9/1 +36%) Cinquenta		9 9/1(+36%)																															(8) Cinquenta 9/1, Yard won this last year; quickened clear comfortably, improved up in trip when winning a novice hurdle at Market Rasen by 8 1/2l last time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good to soft; more to come over hurdles. Not hard pressed to get off the mark at Market Rasen; has to be considered.
15	15 (15) (10/1 +17%) Wolf Walker		10 10/1(+17%)																															(15) Wolf Walker 10/1, Ran to form when second beaten 2 1/2l in a maiden hurdle at Wincanton latest; trainer in form; off a short-break; effective 2-3m; multiple point winner, can win soon when upped in trip with opening mark looking generous. Has looked ready for 2m4f+ in three hurdles runs; gets that here and can improve.
4	4 (4) (12/1 -20%) Laguna Beach		12 12/1(-20%)																															(4) Laguna Beach 12/1, Mistakes, improved again up in trip when second beaten 2 1/4l in a novice hurdle at Ascot latest; top jockey back on board; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on good to soft; progressive for top yard and likely has more to offer in handicaps. Might have followed up Hereford win with more fluent round of jumping at Ascot; respected.
11	11 (11) (12/1 +52%) Race To Base		12 12/1(+52%)																															(11) Race To Base 12/1, Every chance, ran to form when fourth beaten 7l in a novice hurdle at Hereford latest; tongue-tie first time; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on good to soft and good; form of hurdle debut franked, may want bit further in time.

Beat subsequent Grade 2 winner Klub De Reve at Exeter but turned over at odds-on next time.
10	10 (10) (14/1 +0%) Tennessee Tango		14 14/1(+0%)																															(10) Tennessee Tango 14/1, Went clear with ease and outclassed rivals when winning a maiden hurdle at Plumpton by 11l last time; effective 2m, acts on any; bumper winner progressing over hurdles and not dismissed up in class.

Second to Get On George at Doncaster before landing odds at Hereford; needs a bit more.
16	16 (16) (16/1 +36%) Gee Force Flyer		16 16/1(+36%)																															(16) Gee Force Flyer 16/1, Ran to form when second beaten 8 1/2l in a novice hurdle at Market Rasen latest; effective 2m4f, acts with soft; more to come and matter of time before he's winning but this a big ask on handicap bow. 0-3 over hurdles, put firmly in place by Cinquenta at Market Rasen five weeks ago.
5	5 (5) (22/1 -38%) Jury's In		22 22/1(-38%)																															(5) Jury's In 22/1, Went clear with ease and improved continuing yard's fine record at the track when winning a novice hurdle at Fakenham by 20l last time; effective 2m4f on soft; progressive, may have more to offer in handicaps, will make chaser in time. Beat The Boss Bear 20l at Fakenham; this is stronger but he still has untapped potential.
2	2 (2) (22/1 +33%) Get On George		22 22/1(+33%)																															(2) Get On George 22/1, Pulled up in River Don Novices' Hurdle (Grade 2) at Doncaster latest where found ground too soft; effective 2m4f, acts on good; needs this drop back in class but mark looks stiff. Disappointing in Grade 2 at Doncaster six weeks ago and others may have more potential.
9	9 (9) (25/1 -56%) Rathkenny		25 25/1(-56%)																															(9) Rathkenny 25/1, Ran to form up in trip when second beaten 8l in a novice hurdle at Ffos Las latest; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on HY and GS; big, scopey, athletic future chaser, lot to come but mark demands it.

13:50 Sandown (Class 1) 19f Race Class Flow

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

In another wide-open renewal of this valuable contest, marginal preference is for KAKA'S COUSIN. The six-year-old took a big step forward when readily winning at Kelso a month ago and, given that the second has subsequently filled the same position at Grade 2 level, a mark of 126 may underestimate his ability. Scorpio Rising won a similar event at Windsor in January and is likely to be in the mix once again. Laguna Beach is a handicap debutant to note, while Draco Malfoy completes the shortlist.

Plenty of these are still unexposed but UNKNOWN ENTITY can come into his own now stepped back up in distance and tops the list.

23	23 (23) (11/2 +54%) Brace For Landing		5.5 11/2(+54%)																															(23) Brace For Landing 11/2, Short of room late, not knocked about, improved in first time cheekpieces beaten 5 1/2l in a handicap hurdle here last time; off a short-break; effective 2m2f, acts with cut; showed promise in France, could be running into form for new yard; interesting.

4	4 (4) (12/1 -20%) Go Dante		12 12/1(-20%)																															(4) Go Dante 12/1, Won this in 2024 and 2025; pulled up in William Hill Handicap Hurdle at Newbury latest; effective 2m, acts with cut; inconsistent but a fine Sandown record; mark may be high enough. Has struggled elsewhere on last 2 runs but wind op since & has won last 2 runnings of this.
13	13 (13) (12/1 +14%) Jack Hyde		12 12/1(+14%)																															(13) Jack Hyde 12/1, Short of room at key stage and too much to do back from break following wind op when second beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Taunton latest; effective 2-2 1/2m, acts on any; in form, may have reached level but mark still fair.

1	1 (1) (12/1 +40%) Fingle Bridge		12 12/1(+40%)																															(1) Fingle Bridge 12/1, Yard has won last two runnings of race; improved again when second beaten 4 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Warwick latest; didn't really take to chasing previously; effective 2m-2m5f, acts on heavy and good to soft; progressive over hurdles but career best needed again Travelled strongly when second over 2m5f at Warwick; not ruled out now back down in trip.
16	16 (16) (16/1 +36%) No Ordinary Joe		16 16/1(+36%)																															(16) No Ordinary Joe 16/1, Travelled but tied up having made move too soon, did best of those up with the pace beaten 5l in a handicap hurdle at Ascot last time; veteran is best at 2 1/2m; fair mark if building on recent revival. Big step back in right direction at Ascot three weeks ago and he might not be far away.
5	5 (5) (18/1 +18%) Ooh Betty		18 18/1(+18%)																															(5) Ooh Betty 18/1, Game, returned to form benefitting from very easy lead, weak enough form for the level when winning Warfield Mares' Hurdle (Grade 2) at Ascot by 1/2l last time; effective 2m on a sound surface; likes to dominate, needs to build on recent revival. Won Grade 2 mares' hurdle at Ascot in January and competitive off this mark in the past.

Won on handicap debut at Newbury; up in grade but remains to be seen where limitations lie.
19	19 (19) (20/1 +0%) Star Of Guiting		20 20/1(+0%)																															(19) Star Of Guiting 20/1, Improved a little landing a Scottish County Handicap Hurdle by 3/4l off a 7lb lower mark at Musselburgh last time; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; consistent but this looks tough off this mark. Wins at Musselburgh on last 2 runs; this progressive 5yo could have more left in the tank.
11	11 (11) (20/1 +20%) Gooloogong		20 20/1(+20%)																															(11) Gooloogong 20/1, Went clear easily, improved on handicap debut winning by 12l off a 10lb lower mark at Kempton last time; effective 2m, acts on good to soft and good; progressive and not fully exposed in this sphere.

12	12 (12) (28/1 +44%) Spirits Bay		28 28/1(+44%)																															(12) Spirits Bay 28/1, Disappointing hurdles return when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Taunton latest; significant jockey booking; effective 2m, acts on any; fair mark on autumn win but bit to prove. Mixed form since reappearance win at Newton Abbot; Top Jimmy looks the yard's chief hope.
10	10 (10) (33/1 -18%) Nardaran		33 33/1(-18%)																															(10) Nardaran 33/1, Yard has won 2 of last 9 runnings of race; ran to form back on the flat comfortably held in a novice at Southwell last time; effective at 2m, acts on good to soft, good to firm; mark may be high enough. Won small-field handicap over C&D in November but disappointing on both hurdle runs since.
9	9 (9) (40/1 -60%) Messerschmitt		40 40/1(-60%)																															(9) Messerschmitt 40/1, Stopped quickly down the field in a handicap hurdle at Down Royal most recent; returning from a break; effective 2m, acts on soft, good; fair mark on summer form but bit to prove after couple of disappointments. Below par last autumn but a break may have helped; each-way shout on last August's form.
18	18 (18) (40/1 -21%) We're Red And Blue		40 40/1(-21%)																															(18) We're Red And Blue 40/1, Ran to form suited by positive ride at sharp track beaten 2 1/2l off a 1lb lower mark at Kempton last time; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on soft, good; in good form, remains on fair mark on novice form. 6yo who has been progressive this season but further improvement is necessary today.

8	8 (8) (40/1 +20%) Bubble Dubi		40 40/1(+20%)																															(8) Bubble Dubi 40/1, Made too much use of trying to put it up to winner when well beaten in William Hill Handicap Hurdle at Newbury latest; in good form prior; effective around 2m, acts on any; progressive until latest, mark may be high enough. Defied huge absence with easy win at Aintree but well beaten at Newbury subsequently.
15	15 (15) (50/1 +24%) Mr Mcloughlan		50 50/1(+24%)																															(15) Mr Mcloughlan 50/1, Showed minor promise on flat debut when fourth beaten 14l in a novice at Southwell latest; effective 2m, acts on good to soft and good; quirky but shown plenty of ability and progressing until latest; mark probably stiff enough Won on handicap debut at Huntingdon in November and had an excuse at Musselburgh since.

14:27 Sandown (Class 2) 15f Race Class Flow

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

Having won the last two renewals, Go Dante has to be respected and a wind operation since his last run may help his chances. That said, preference is for MONDO MAN, who was fourth off this mark in a very competitive handicap at Ascot before Christmas and has subsequently bolted up in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton. Wreckless Eric and Afadil made the frame 12 months ago and shouldn't be far away, with Rubber Ball and General Briar also firmly in contention.

Preference is for the novice TOP JIMMY (nap), who shaped over 2m4f at Windsor as though this drop back in trip could be a good move.

15:00 Sandown (Class 1) 15f Race Class Flow

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

The Flaggy Shore was well supported ahead of her Market Rasen assignment in similar company, but she was a bit disappointing in the end to only finish second to Malina Road and that form took a knock at Newbury recently. Carlisle winner Lune Brillante is surely better than her Huntingdon showing and is noted, but point-to-point scorer BURDS OF A FEATHER could be anything judged on her sparkling Rules debut at Warwick and she gets the nod.

This looks the time to catch GIDGE who is first choice ahead of Millstatt Abbey. Plenty of the others have possibilities.

15:35 Sandown (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Connections wasted little time in switching CALIMYSTIC to chasing and he came good at the first attempt when winning at Newbury. That was his first run of the season and, given he's open to stacks more improvement, he can be expected to play a prominent role. Bucksy Des Epeires is more experienced over the larger obstacles and comes in here on the back of win too, at Ludlow, so is also taken seriously. Welcom To Cartries makes some each-way appeal at the forecast prices.

Calimystic is much respected but TUNE IN A BOX is thrown in on his best hurdling form and now looks ready to strike.

Could be well treated even if November's third to The Jukebox Man flatters him slightly.
5	5 (5) (7/2 +53%) Soldierofthestorm		3.5 7/2(+53%)																															(5) Soldierofthestorm 7/2, Scored by 2l off a 10lb lower mark at Catterick penultimate start; ran to form on chase debut second beaten 4 1/4l off 116 last time, that form franked and only 3lb higher here; off a short-break; effective 2 1/2m, acts on S and G; more to come over fences, may get 3m but big player if getting stiff test. In good form this winter, winning hurdle then second on chase debut; may do better again.

Went close at Newbury (2m6f) over Christmas; possible excuses for poor run since; claims.

16:10 Sandown (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Soldierofthestorm made a pleasing start to life over fences when second at Hereford in January and there should be more to come, but it's hard to get away from MR HOPE STREET. Dan Skelton's gelding finished behind The Jukebox Man at Haydock most recently and that form makes a mark of 131 look workable, so he looks the way to go. Just Over Land is another to consider.

The handicapper has taken a bit of a chance letting MR HOPE STREET back into a handicap off 131. Captain Bellamy can chase him home.

2	2 (2) (8/11 +34%) Norn Iron		0.727273 8/11(+34%)																															(2) Norn Iron 8/11, Did it easily, improved again up in trip landing a handicap by 5 1/2l off a 8lb lower mark here last time; effective 2m to 2 1/2m, acts on heavy and good; consistent over hurdles and fences; could follow up. Won in decisive fashion over C&D last time and an 8lb rise might not stop him.

Third over 2m at Carlisle recently and the step back up in trip might help.
4	4 (4) (9/1 -29%) First Angel		9 9/1(-29%)																															(4) First Angel 9/1, Ran to form landing a handicap by 7 1/2l off a 4lb lower mark at Taunton last time; off a long absence; effective 2m, suited by decent ground; good mark if fit for return and Bowen booked.

16:45 Sandown (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

After a disappointing defeat at Windsor, NORN IRON made amends when sporting a first-time tongue-tie over track and trip in January. Harry Derham's eight-year-old has an 8lb higher mark to contend with but, considering the manner of that success, he looks the one to beat. Toothless rarely runs a bad race and a repeat of his second at Ludlow gives him a chance, while First Angel is far from out of it either.

The form of NORN IRON's win over C&D in January received a firm boost when the runner-up went one better next time. He earns the vote.

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.
