1st (3)  (7/2 +61%)Hurricane Pat |
7/2(+61%)  |
 | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hurricane Pat 7/2, Did it readily with a very promising debut when winning a maiden hurdle here by 3l last time. Effective over 2m on good to soft or good ground, and a dual bumper winner. The form of that debut success has had some knocks but he looks open to progress. Progressive type whose reappearance win took his Sandown record to 2-3. |
|
2nd (2)  (10/1 -82%)Soldier Reeves |
10/1(-82%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Soldier Reeves 10/1, From a yard that won this race last year, he landed a maiden hurdle at Cheltenham by 1/2l last time. Effective over 2m on soft ground, his debut form looks strong. A stiff finish suits and there should be more to come for this top yard. Won maiden hurdle at the Cheltenham November meeting and looks a promising sort. |
|
3rd (1)  (12/1 -100%)Fresh Perspective |
12/1(-100%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Fresh Perspective 12/1, Quickened clear cosily when winning the Introductory Hurdle at Wetherby by 6l last time. The trainer is in form, and he is effective over 2m on soft or good ground. Although the form has taken some knocks, he is progressing well. Overall record is 4-5; incurs 3lb penalty but remains open to further progress. |
|
4th (5)  (4/7 +21%)Sober Glory |
4/7(+21%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sober Glory 4/7, Quickened clear with ease on a very promising debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Chepstow by 12l last time. Effective over 2m on good to soft ground. Classy in bumpers and his debut form looks strong, suggesting there is more to come over hurdles. Scored easily at Chepstow on hurdles debut; top on the figures and remains unbeaten. |
|
5th (4)  (9/1 -64%)Shabalko D'herm |
9/1(-64%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Shabalko D'herm 9/1, Improved to defy a penalty, his fitness told late when winning a novice hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee over 2m1f by a neck last time. Effective over 2m and a 3m point winner. There should be more to come over hurdles, possibly when tackling further. Gamely defied a penalty at Bangor; improving sort who has a likeable attitude. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
This looks a warm renewal and a case could be made for all five competitors, so only a tentative vote goes to SOBER GLORY. Unbeaten in four starts under Rules, the son of Mount Nelson won with ease on his hurdling debut at Chepstow and continues to go from strength to strength. Shabalko D'herm is yet to taste defeat over timber and carried a penalty to success at Bangor last time, so he has to be respected. Exciting prospect Fresh Perspective is far from out of it either.
All of the runners are open to further progress but it will take a very good performance to lower the colours of SOBER GLORY.

11/8(+61%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sunset Marquesa 11/8, Outpaced but ran to form back from a break after a wind operation, looking in need of a stiffer test when beaten 3l off 117 over 2m3f at Exeter last time; trainer in form; second run since wind op and could improve for this extra distance. Ran creditably on reappearance and may still have further progress in her. |
|
2nd (1)  (16/1 +0%)Shantwopointfive |
16/1(+0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Shantwopointfive 16/1, Up in trip, may not have stayed, did plenty early when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle over 3m at Ascot last time; effective at around 2 1/2m but below par this term. Drop back in trip looks favourable but she may struggle to defy top weight. |
|
3rd (6)  (9/1 -125%)Looking As You Are |
9/1(-125%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Looking As You Are 9/1, Ran to form, just flattening out late back from a break when second, beaten 6 1/2l in a handicap hurdle over 2m3f at Market Rasen last time; effective 2 1/2–3m; consistent performer. Ran creditably on reappearance; this step back up in trip is ideal; possibilities. |
|
4th (5)  (4/1 +0%)Dramatic Encore |
4/1(+0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Dramatic Encore 4/1, Ran to form when 9 1/2l third in a handicap hurdle over 2m5f at Warwick last time; effective around 2m4f on good to soft or good; consistent in a short career. May resume improvement with Warwick reappearance under her belt. |
|
|U| (4)  (28/1 -40%)Ring O Roses |
28/1(-40%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ring O Roses 28/1, Ran to form on stable debut, just tiring late back from a break when 12l third in a handicap hurdle at Lingfield last time; returning from a long layoff; effective around 2 1/2m on soft or good; well handicapped on Irish form and a threat if fit. Record is only 1-13; absent for nearly a year; second run for new yard. |
|
|PU| (8)  (5/2 -33%)Crazierthandaisy |
5/2(-33%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Crazierthandaisy 5/2, Improved and well placed to challenge with hurdles removed when landing a handicap by 1l off 110 over 2m5f at Warwick last time; effective around 2m4f on soft or good; steadily progressing. Something to prove on a track like Sandown but otherwise is largely progressive. |
|
|PU| (10)  (28/1 -211%)Northern Symphonie |
28/1(-211%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Northern Symphonie 28/1, Bit below form off a revised mark, got racing too early when second, beaten 8l in a handicap hurdle over 2m7f at Uttoxeter last time; effective 2 1/2–3m on good; progressive over summer but a career best needed on return with conditions a concern. Faces a stiffer assignment at this level on debut for new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Crazierthandaisy accounted for Dramatic Encore (third) when victorious by a length on her return to the fray at Warwick last month and could have more to come on just her fourth start in a handicap. However, SUNSET MARQUESA shaped with promise when third over an extended 2m2f at Exeter and will appreciate this step back up in trip. Off just a 2lb higher rating, she looks the way to go.
The best option in this depleted field may be SUNSET MARQUESA who won on heavy ground last season and made an encouraging reappearance.

1st (6)  (9/4 +50%)Kikijo |
9/4(+50%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kikijo 9/4, Landed a 3m Cheltenham handicap by 3l off 120 last time. Effective from 2 1/2m to 3m, acts on soft and good ground; unexposed as a stayer and may have more to offer over hurdles and fences. Won at the Cheltenham November meeting, taking record to 3-7; type to improve further. |
|
2nd (10)  (9/4 +68%)Turndlightsdownlow |
9/4(+68%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Turndlightsdownlow 9/4, Green and made mistakes but quickened clear with ease to win a 2m5f Kempton handicap by 7 1/2l off 105 last time. Trainer in form; effective at 3m on good ground; progressing and may still be ahead of his mark. 2-2 since handicapping, namely wins at Kempton; receives plenty of weight all round. |
|
3rd (7)  (13/2 +28%)Ikarak |
13/2(+28%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Ikarak 13/2, Ran to form when landing a handicap by a nose off 123 at Lingfield last time. Effective at 3m, acts with cut; admirably consistent but appears high enough in the weights now. Reappearance win took his hurdles record to 5-15; stiffer task off career-high mark. |
|
4th (1)  (9/1 -38%)Supremely West |
9/1(-38%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Supremely West 9/1, Raced on the worst part of the track and was comfortably held in a 3m handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last time. Effective over 3m, handles good ground and prefers some cut; possibly on a stiff enough mark. Ran promisingly on stable debut and it's perhaps best to forgive his subsequent effort. |
|
5th (5)  (28/1 +30%)Hititi |
28/1(+30%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Hititi 28/1, Outpaced and needed the run when well beaten in a 3m handicap hurdle at Newbury last time. Effective over 3m, handles any ground; needs to improve from that reappearance effort. Went close in this race two years ago but has a doubt over current form. |
|
6th (8)  (11/2 +45%)Lavender Hill Mob |
11/2(+45%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lavender Hill Mob 11/2, Quickened clear cosily to win a 2m5f Cheltenham handicap by 5l off 119 on softer ground last time. Effective from 2m to 2m5f, suited by cut; progressive dual-purpose performer but may be on a stiff mark and has stamina concerns. Scored at the Cheltenham November meeting and remains well treated judged on Flat form. |
|
|PU| (3)  (14/1 +50%)Green Book |
14/1(+50%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Green Book 14/1, Showed a good attitude when returning to form, beaten 4l off 139 over 3m at Cheltenham last time. Absent for a lengthy spell; effective over 3m, acts on soft and good to soft. In form when last seen, likes the track, fair mark but may need this. Ran creditably in the 2023 Pertemps Final but absent since; market helpful. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
ABSOLUTELY DOYEN hasn't looked back since joining the Paul Nicholls yard, winning three on the bounce, and is now 8lb higher than his two-and-a-half length success at Ascot last month. The son of Doyen might have been worth more than the winning margin suggests on that occasion and is taken to strike once again. Kikijo won well in this grade at Cheltenham and is likely to be thereabouts, while Lavender Hill Mob looked a different proposition when upped in trip at Cheltenham and may have more to offer.
Plenty have possibilities in an open contest. KIKIJO is narrowly preferred, ahead of Lavender Hill Mob.

2/5(+45%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Lulamba 2/5, Won a beginners' chase at Exeter over 2m1f by 10l last time. Effective at 2m, acts on any ground; a top-class juvenile hurdler last term who looks equally good over fences. Leading Arkle hope and the one to beat. Talented 4yo; won easily at Exeter on chase debut; continues to command the utmost respect. |
|
2nd (2)  (8/1 -78%)Be Aware |
8/1(-78%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Be Aware 8/1, From the yard that won this last year; finished second, beaten 1 1/2l, in the Arkle Challenge Trophy Trial Novices' Chase (Grade 2) over 2m at Cheltenham last time. Effective from 2m to 2 1/2m, suited by decent ground; progressive over fences and worth a step back up in trip. Similar type to last year's winner, stablemate L'Eau du Sud, and has taken the same route. |
|
3rd (3)  (6/1 -33%)Lump Sum |
6/1(-33%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lump Sum 6/1, Went clear comfortably and ran to his best on chase debut when winning a beginners' chase at Uttoxeter over 2m by 16l last time. Effective at 2m, acts on good to soft; a useful handicapper over hurdles whose debut form has been franked. Worth a step up in class but faces a tough task. Very useful hurdler; powered clear in the latter stages at Uttoxeter switched to chasing. |
|
|PU| (1)  (8/1 +6%)Alnilam |
8/1(+6%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Alnilam 8/1, Jumped boldly and improved from his debut under a very aggressive ride when taken on up front, winning a novice chase at Cheltenham over 2m by 4 1/2l last time. Effective at 2m, acts on soft and good ground; bold jumper, progressive over fences. 2-2 since switched to fences, the latest performance at Cheltenham; may improve further. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
Grade 1 winner Lulamba is sure to be all the rage as he sets the standard with an official rating of 153 and was the best of these over the smaller obstacles. Unsurprisingly, he justified cramped odds on his chasing bow at Exeter, but if there are any chinks in his armour, LUMP SUM can be the one to benefit. Sam Thomas' seven-year-old beat a subsequent winner by 16 lengths on his first start over fences at Uttoxeter in October and his brilliant jumping could stand him in good stead. Be Aware can beat Alnilam home for third.
The sky's the limit for 4yo LULAMBA who is taken to cement his Arkle claims. Lump Sum is second pick.

11/2(+39%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Go Dante 11/2, Below form up in trip when comfortably held in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Bangor-on-Dee last time, possibly not staying and needing the run. Effective at 2m, acts with cut; dual Imperial Cup winner but inconsistent. Two from two at Sandown, namely wins in the Imperial Cup in 2024 and 2025. |
|
2nd (2)  (5/2 +0%)Knickerbockerglory |
5/2(+0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Knickerbockerglory 5/2, Last year's winner; fourth beaten 8 1/4l in a handicap hurdle at Plumpton latest. Trainer in form; enjoys making it and effective at 2m on any ground. Consistent with good record fresh, should run his race. Good reappearance record includes a success in this race last year; respected back here. |
|
3rd (9)  (7/1 +30%)Afadil |
7/1(+30%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Afadil 7/1, Needed the run when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Ascot latest. Effective at 2m and suited by good to soft ground, though recent form has dipped. Nicely treated on lots of form, including close third in last season's Imperial Cup. |
|
4th (4)  (28/1 -155%)Metier |
28/1(-155%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Metier 28/1, Outpaced and below form when down the field in a 12f handicap at Doncaster last time, needing the run. Dropping back in trip and likes the track but others arrive in better form. Has a doubt over current form judged on his two Flat efforts this year. |
|
5th (5)  (7/4 +50%)Glynn Brae |
7/4(+50%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Glynn Brae 7/4, Rallied gamely to win a handicap by a neck off 128 over 2m4f here last time, relishing the longer trip. Enjoys making it; effective 2-2 1/2m; progressive and a strong stayer, though the drop in trip may not suit. Scored at Sandown on reappearance, taking record to 5-8; may progress further; big player. |
|
6th (6)  (33/1 0%)L'astroboy |
33/1(0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) L'astroboy 33/1, Looked a clear non-stayer when second beaten 2 1/4l in a novice hurdle over 2m3f at Chepstow latest. Effective over 2m and acts on soft; drop in trip should help, but must prove ability remains after a long layoff. Still unexposed but has been absent since March 2023; market helpful. |
|
7th (8)  (22/1 +12%)Honky Tonk Highway |
22/1(+12%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Honky Tonk Highway 22/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Bangor-on-Dee last time; yard won this race last year. Trainer in form; effective 2-3m, suited by cut; should come on for that run. Two from two at Sandown; dismal effort at Bangor on handicap/seasonal debut. |
|
8th (3)  (12/1 +14%)Goshen |
12/1(+14%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Goshen 12/1, Outclassed and may not have stayed when down the field in the bet365 Gold Cup over 3m5f here last time. Likes this venue and has dropped in weights but big enthusiasm concerns. Smart on his day but is mercurial and hasn't won over hurdles for three years. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
It was heavy going when Knickerbockerglory won this last year, but he could only manage fifth behind GO DANTE when the latter landed the Imperial Cup for the second time back in March. Olly Murphy's charge is only 3lb higher and another bold bid looks on the cards. Afadil finished a close third behind the selection in March and could feature if back to his best, while the progressive Glynn Brae remains of interest having scored over 2m4f here on his reappearance.
Being a last-time course winner who may well improve further, GLYNN BRAE (nap) is preferred. Knickerbockerglory is second pick.

8/11(+9%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Il Etait Temps 8/11, A five-time Grade 1 winner who landed the Clonmel Oil Chase (Grade 2) over 2m5f by 18l last time. Effective from 2m to 2½m, handles soft and good. Top class and still unexposed in open company; the one to beat. Record of 6-8 over fences includes an impressive win over C&D in April; top on the figures. |
|
2nd (3)  (3/1 +25%)Jonbon |
3/1(+25%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Jonbon 3/1, A 10-time Grade 1 winner who was second, beaten 15l, in the Shloer Chase (Grade 2) over 2m at Cheltenham last time. Effective at 2m, a top-class and generally consistent chaser who could bounce back away from Cheltenham. Winner of this race for last two years but cracks are starting to appear; headgear fitted. |
|
3rd (4)  (5/2 +9%)L'eau Du Sud |
5/2(+9%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) L'eau Du Sud 5/2, Travelled well and improved when dropped in grade to win the Shloer Chase (Grade 2) at Cheltenham over 2m by 15l last time. Effective at 2m, acts on most goings with a preference for some cut; progressive and competitive at this level. Landed the Henry VIII on this card last year; dotted up in the Shloer on reappearance. |
|
4th (5)  (25/1 +0%)Libberty Hunter |
25/1(+0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Libberty Hunter 25/1, Unseated in the Shloer Chase (Grade 2) over 2m at Cheltenham last time. Effective at 2m, acts on heavy and good to soft. Showed progress last season but his jumping has become an issue. Failed to complete the last twice; progressive otherwise but this is a difficult task. |
|
5th (1)  (66/1 +18%)Boothill |
66/1(+18%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Boothill 66/1, Pulled up in a 2m1f handicap chase at Ascot last time. Best at 2m, handles soft and good but probably not heavy. Has had jumping issues and looks in need of a few more pounds off; vulnerable in this grade. Held by Jonbon on several pieces of form and achieved nothing at Ascot on reappearance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
A terrific renewal can go the way of IL ETAIT TEMPS. Willie Mullins' outstanding chaser warmed up nicely for this with a facile victory at Clonmel last month, having beaten Jonbon (second) in great style when landing the Celebration Chase here in April. The latter bids to land this for the third time, but he also found L'eau Du Sud too good in the Shloer at Cheltenham on his reappearance, and Dan Skelton's charge appears to be the bigger threat to the selection on that evidence.
With further improvement highly plausible, L'EAU DU SUD could well reach or surpass the standard set by Il Etait Temps.

11/4(0%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) O'connell 11/4, Had too much to do when dropped in trip after a break, finishing 3l behind the winner off 132 over 3m2f at Carlisle last time. The trainer is in form, effective from 3–4m, and he is suited by marathon trips. Stays 3m4f; encouraging third at Carlisle five weeks ago should set him up for a big run. |
|
2nd (4)  (10/1 -43%)Hung Jury |
10/1(-43%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hung Jury 10/1, Improved when benefiting from a patient ride off a strong pace, winning a handicap by 4l off 122 over 3m1f at Cheltenham last time. Needs further than 3m, acts on any ground, and should appreciate a stamina test. 4m and 3m1f wins at Cheltenham; step back up in trip can help him make further progress. |
|
3rd (7)  (85/40 +82%)Rivers Corner |
85/40(+82%) |
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Rivers Corner 85/40, Ran to form back from a break when 5l third in a handicap chase over 2m3f at Exeter on his latest run. Effective from 2 1/2–3m, consistent, and the return to a longer trip should suit. Has taken well to fences and looks worth this first go at a marathon trip. |
|
4th (5)  (6/1 +0%)Invincible Nao |

| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tanganyika 13/2, Comfortably held in a handicap chase over 3m3f at Cheltenham last time, having been in good form beforehand. Effective over 3m+, acts on heavy and good to soft ground, and looks progressive enough to improve for that latest run. Midlands National 2nd; shaped as if in need of race on return; type to resume improvement. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
It could pay to stick with the progressive staying chaser ASK BREWSTER. The impressive winner over 3m4f at Cheltenham in April, Evan Williams' charge returned to action with a victory at Chepstow in October and another good effort looks assured. This longer trip holds no fears for Invincible Nao, who scored over 2m4f here last month, while Midlands National runner-up Tanganyika makes more appeal than O'Connell and Hung Jury, despite carrying top weight.
Competitive. TANGANYIKA should have blown away the cobwebs with his Cheltenham run and O'Connell shaped well on his return.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
