16:15 Sedgefield (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Bumper winner SAGE CONSEIL took a pleasing step forward from his hurdling debut to fill the runner-up spot at Roscommon when last seen in July and could have more to offer. Provided the seven-year-old retains his ability, he will prove tough to beat. Willie Shake Hands has hit the crossbar in handicap company the last twice and has to be respected back in a maiden, while Solent Gateway is another to watch out for.

The returning SAGE CONSEIL has shown a good level of form in Ireland, and represents a trainer who traditionally does well in the UK.

16:50 Sedgefield (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

FEARLESS ACTION struck in ready style over C&D before only managing fifth in a much deeper contest at Carlisle last time. Chris Grant's charge has Brian Hughes booked and a repeat of his performance two starts ago could suffice. Lahire failed to fire at Catterick on his latest outing, but had produced a pair of seconds prior to that and it will be interesting to see how he fares on his chase debut. Conquer The Breeze completes the shortlist.

Back in calmer waters, Fearless Action is expected to be more competitive, but the tentative pick is the consistent MUTUAL RESPECT.

17:25 Sedgefield (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Bodygroove's chance had already gone when unseating his rider at Market Rasen last month, but he may be better judged on his success at Wetherby prior. Even so, PUB CRAWL gets the vote. David Pipe's six-year-old showed a lot more when second over C&D in October, finishing over six lengths clear of the third, and he can take full advantage of an unchanged mark. Lawmans Blis is another to consider.

This could be the day for PUB CRAWL (nap). David Pipe's lowly weighted 6yo was runner-up when last in action over C&D in October.

17:55 Sedgefield (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

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

Although CHEMICAL WARFARE could never land a blow when finishing seventh in the Eider at Newcastle in February, he makes plenty of appeal dropping to class 4 company. David Pipe's charge is a dual C&D winner and an eighth career victory could be on the cards. Last month's Chepstow scorer Redbridge Rambler warrants respect in his follow-up bid and is feared most, ahead of Hostile Hotelier.

These easier fences should suit HOSTILE HOTELIER who is taken to get off the mark over fences. Redbridge Rambler is next best.

18:25 Sedgefield (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Although thwarted in her hat-trick bid when finishing second on her chase bow at Catterick 140 days ago, Suitably Surprised warrants respect reverting to timber. However, FEACH AMACH offered plenty of encouragement on her fourth-placed stable bow at Newcastle in February and the combination of a wind procedure and first-time cheekpieces could be enough for Adam Nicol's mare to claim the spoils. Vanilla Dancer must also enter the reckoning dropping into class 5 company.

The tentative selection in an unappealing race is FEACH AMACH who ran one of her best races when fourth at Newcastle last time.

HOLD ONTO THE LINE has his favoured ground once again and returns to this longer distance with solid claims. A winner over 2m at Newcastle on his penultimate start, he remains fairly treated in this lower grade and boasts stronger form than Pure Surf. The latter opened his account with a victory over 2m4f at Newcastle last week and is penalised 7lb, while Beny Nahar Road didn't get far before falling at Catterick last time, but may prove best of the rest with a clear round.

The mare PURE SURF came back to form to win at Newcastle on Saturday and is taken to follow up by beating Hold Onto The Line.

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

SWINGINGONTHESTEEL returns to action with every chance of defying a penalty. The five-year-old built on a promising debut effort to land a bumper at Musselburgh in November and can go in again, especially with Rebecca Menzies' yard in fine form. Mr Mcloughlan faced a tough assignment last time and is better judged on his debut third at Newcastle. He could feature, while Swingforthefence is a brother to a Listed bumper winner and is a newcomer to note.

The progressive SWINGINGONTHESTEEL has the best credentials and is the one to beat. Swingforthefence is an interesting newcomer.

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.
