2
2nd (3) (1.38/1 +31%) Robin Des Fox
1.38/1(+31%)
(3) Robin Des Fox 1.38/1, Fair hurdler (looks a chaser). Tongue strap on for 1st time, second of 7 in novice hurdle (7/2) at Ludlow (23.8f, soft) 55 days ago. Has had a wind op. Should be competitive here down in trip.
3
3rd (4) (125/1 -89%) Teescomponentsfly
125/1(-89%)
(4) Teescomponentsfly 125/1, Fair Flat winner but well held in 2 novice hurdles this spring.
4
4th (5) (8/1 -33%) Robert Johnson
8/1(-33%)
(5) Robert Johnson 8/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Showed a bit on hurdles debut after 5 months off for this yard here 4 weeks ago and could improve up in trip. Cheekpieces left off.
5th
5th (1) (11/1 -38%) Dondiam
11/1(-38%)
(1) Dondiam 11/1, £50,000 buy after a point win but hasn't pulled up any trees in a couple of bumpers and Bangor novice hurdle. Work to do.
LTO Selection:
13:05 Sedgefield Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(8) First Revolution 4.5/1, Modest maiden out of sorts when last seen in November. Has had a wind op. Could find easier openings.
2
2nd (4) (4/1 +33%) Ar Mest
4/1(+33%)
(4) Ar Mest 4/1, Exploits distinctly mixed for host of trainers this term. Outbattled in a match at Newcastle last month and unseated rider early at Bangor 10 days ago. On a good mark but tricky to support.
3
3rd (3) (2.75/1 +0%) Costly Diamond
2.75/1(+0%)
(3) Costly Diamond 2.75/1, Strong-travelling front-running chaser who has scored 3 times here. Out of sorts (tried to run out and unseated 4 out at Bangor recently) but can't be dismissed back at this venue.
4
4th (7) (5.5/1 -10%) Lucky Robin
5.5/1(-10%)
(7) Lucky Robin 5.5/1, C&D winner back in good form over fences here the last twice. One to consider with good-value conditional now up.
5th
5th (2) (3/1 -9%) Armattiekan
3/1(-9%)
(2) Armattiekan 3/1, Dual winner over fences this term and ran well when second at Carlisle 23 days ago. Expected to be bang there.
6th
6th (1) (22/1 -57%) Brelan D'As
22/1(-57%)
(1) Brelan D'As 22/1, Capitalised on falling mark when well backed and landing handicap chases at Kelso (17f) and Newcastle (2½m) in November. Poor since and probably isn't one to be interested in until the market speaks in his favour.
LTO Selection:
13:40 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) The Navigator 2/1, C&D winner who confirmed return to form when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (17.4f, good) 25 days ago, responding well. 6 lb rise fair and ought to remain competitive.
2
2nd (1) (2/1 +0%) Spiritofthenorth
2/1(+0%)
(1) Spiritofthenorth 2/1, Showed improved form to get off the mark over hurdles in facile style in a maiden at Wetherby (16f, soft) 19 days ago. That race rather fell apart but he still looks fairly treated back in a handicap.
3
3rd (2) (3.5/1 +13%) Enlighten
3.5/1(+13%)
(2) Enlighten 3.5/1, C&D winner in January who ran at least as well when second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (16.2f, good to soft) 42 days ago. That performance is backed up by the clock, and he looks sure to go well despite a 4 lb rise.
4
4th (7) (12/1 +0%) Check My Pulse
12/1(+0%)
(7) Check My Pulse 12/1, Fair 2m hurdle winner who took a step back in the right direction when third in a 4-runner handicap here (17f) in September. Shaped as if amiss up in trip at Market Rasen on final outing but could get back on track following a break.
5th
5th (9) (28/1 -133%) Balkalin
28/1(-133%)
(9) Balkalin 28/1, Maiden who is lightly raced for his age but seemed beaten on merit when third of 6 in a novice hurdle at Kelso (18.1f, good to soft, 8/1) 15 days ago, tying up near finish. Others make more appeal for win purposes.
6th
6th (3) (66/1 -313%) Sonning
66/1(-313%)
(3) Sonning 66/1, Fairly useful winner at 10f on the level and has matched that form over hurdles, scoring at Catterick in November. Stiff task when well held in listed juvenile at Musselburgh last time and has since left Alan King. Hood on for 1st time.
|PU|
|PU| (10) (6/1 +33%) Lou Trek
6/1(+33%)
(10) Lou Trek 6/1, Winning pointer who stopped quickly on his stable debut but fared much better after 4 months off when second of 8 in novice hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) 8 days ago, going with enthusiasm. More needed back in a handicap, however.
|PU|
|PU| (5) (40/1 -233%) The Some Dance Kid
40/1(-233%)
(5) The Some Dance Kid 40/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2019 and down tools when pulled up in handicap chase (7/4) at Fakenham (16.3f) on final outing in November. Back over hurdles following another breathing operation.
LTO Selection:
14:10 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(5) Cilluirid 4.5/1, Already a three-time scorer here this season, twice over C&D, but he arrives on back of below-par third of 5 at Ludlow (20f) 27 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back.
2
2nd (3) (3/1 +40%) Road Warrior
3/1(+40%)
(3) Road Warrior 3/1, Landed this contest 12 months ago and also scored here in December. 12/1, pulled up in handicap at Carlisle (20f) 23 days ago, but he's no forlorn hope for in-form yard.
3
3rd (2) (1.38/1 +21%) Nietzsche
1.38/1(+21%)
(2) Nietzsche 1.38/1, Winless this term but he arrives in good nick, third of 7 in handicap chase at Ayr (20.5f) 18 days ago. Weighted to go go close off an easing mark.
4
4th (7) (14/1 -40%) Instant Replay
14/1(-40%)
(7) Instant Replay 14/1, 4-time C&D winner but he arrives out of sorts, pulled up in handicap at Bangor (17.4f) 10 days ago. Cheekpieces go back on with lots to prove.
5th
5th (6) (20/1 +0%) Victory Echo
20/1(+0%)
(6) Victory Echo 20/1, Scored at Catterick in February but he's an unreliable sort who was pulled up in handicap at Ayr (20.5f) 38 days ago. Others appeal more.
6th
6th (1) (6/1 +25%) Dr Sanderson
6/1(+25%)
(1) Dr Sanderson 6/1, Dual winner at Ayr and Doncaster before Christmas. Only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Wetherby (19.4f) 28 days ago though, so he needs to get back on track.
LTO Selection:
14:45 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(9) Adherence 2/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2019 but stepped up on stable debut when second of 13 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.6f, soft, 12/1) 25 days ago. Player up 3 lb.
2
2nd (2) (8/1 -45%) Thatbeatsbanagher
8/1(-45%)
(2) Thatbeatsbanagher 8/1, Course winner in February who was not disgraced when fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Hexham (20.1f, good to soft, 10/1) 22 days ago. Should remain competitive.
3
3rd (1) (28/1 -300%) Dis Donc
28/1(-300%)
(1) Dis Donc 28/1, Capitalised on the drop into selling company in 4-runner affair at Wetherby (19.7f, soft) 19 days ago, digging deep. Not sure to be in the same form.
4
4th (6) (6.5/1 +35%) Goldrapper
6.5/1(+35%)
(6) Goldrapper 6.5/1, Creditable sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle (40/1) at Market Rasen (18.6f, good to soft) 20 days ago, possibly still needing the run. Not ruled out from easing mark.
5th
5th (11) (50/1 -100%) Redesdale Angel
50/1(-100%)
(11) Redesdale Angel 50/1, Well beaten in bumpers and similarly little in the way of promise in maiden/novice hurdles. Improvement needed now handicapping.
6th
6th (5) (5/1 +29%) Annies Prayer
5/1(+29%)
(5) Annies Prayer 5/1, Maiden who had been shaping up quite well prior to a poor run at Wetherby in January. Well backed and disappointed for a second successive start at Carlisle, so has something to prove at present. Up in trip.
7th
7th (3) (11/1 +39%) Franks Fancy
11/1(+39%)
(3) Franks Fancy 11/1, Kelso novice winner who arrives out of sorts, only ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (23.8f, good) 25 days ago.
8th
8th (4) (14/1 -27%) Calliope
14/1(-27%)
(4) Calliope 14/1, Ran no sort of race at Kelso (18.1f, heavy) when last seen in December, but she's usually reliable, so is the type to bounce back after a break/wind operation.
9th
9th (10) (12/1 +45%) Arcanja
12/1(+45%)
(10) Arcanja 12/1, Runner-up twice in bumpers last season. Disappointing so far over hurdles, though suffered a tack issue when pulled up over C&D last time. Cheekpieces back on.
|PU|
|PU| (8) (11/1 -144%) Punta Prima
11/1(-144%)
(8) Punta Prima 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules who ran best race over hurdles when third of 6 in 17f novice at Carlisle 40 days ago. Makes handicap debut up in trip fitted with first-time cheekpieces.
|PU|
|PU| (7) (11/1 +8%) Rumble B
11/1(+8%)
(7) Rumble B 11/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs and was again below form at Wetherby (24.1f, soft) 19 days ago. Visor back on.
LTO Selection:
15:20 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) Hurricane Dylan 1.62/1, Course winner who ran another solid race when second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (22f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Shortlist material.
2
2nd (3) (6.5/1 -18%) Fightfortheroses
6.5/1(-18%)
(3) Fightfortheroses 6.5/1, Course winner in January who bounced back to form after a couple of lesser efforts when fourth at Hexham (20.1f) 22 days ago. More needed for win purposes, though.
3
3rd (5) (5/1 -25%) Phoenix Strike
5/1(-25%)
(5) Phoenix Strike 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who ran another good race when third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Newcastle (16.2f, good) 39 days ago. Significantly up in trip and not taken lightly.
4
4th (4) (6/1 +0%) Guidedbythescience
6/1(+0%)
(4) Guidedbythescience 6/1, Promising signs on hurdles debut/second start for this yard here in January. Has failed to build on that since, including on handicap debut at Hexham last time, but it remains early days. Has had a breathing operation.
5th
5th (10) (25/1 +24%) Zen Master
25/1(+24%)
(10) Zen Master 25/1, Latest win in chase here in October. Broke blood vessel when pulled up in handicap chase at this course (19.3f, good to soft, 16/1) 26 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles.
6th
6th (1) (14/1 +30%) Cyrus Keep
14/1(+30%)
(1) Cyrus Keep 14/1, Right back on track when bagging Hexham handicap last June, but is unreliable and ran poorly next 2 starts. Off 7 months.
7th
7th (8) (12/1 +40%) Up With The Play
12/1(+40%)
(8) Up With The Play 12/1, Poor maiden who ran no sort of race at Newcastle (23.7f, good) 10 days ago, never travelling well and beaten long way out. Others more persuasive on the back of that.
8th
8th (6) (6.5/1 -63%) Akkapenko
6.5/1(-63%)
(6) Akkapenko 6.5/1, Course winner who ran no sort of race on first run since leaving Dai Burchell when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, heavy) 47 days ago. Has fallen to last winning mark and tongue tie now refitted.
LTO Selection:
15:50 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(3) Global Racing 0.8/1, Fairly useful chaser who has unseated in a couple of bumpers recently but was shaping well on the first occasion at Wetherby, so he ranks as a major player.
2
2nd (5) (2.75/1 +61%) Sartorial Elegance
2.75/1(+61%)
(5) Sartorial Elegance 2.75/1, Fairly useful form at best for Colin Tizzard, but that was a long time ago and, while he's a multiple point winner (second again last time), others make more appeal.
3
3rd (4) (20/1 +50%) Mr Pepperpot
20/1(+50%)
(4) Mr Pepperpot 20/1, Point winner who has never really achieved much under Rules and is hard to fancy on the back of a remote second in a hunter at Catterick last month.
|F|
|F| (1) (3.5/1 +56%) Merrion Avenue
3.5/1(+56%)
(1) Merrion Avenue 3.5/1, Left previous Rules efforts behind when landing a 4-runner hunter at Hexham 8 days ago but this looks much tougher.
LTO Selection:
16:20 Sedgefield Hunter Chase (Class 6) 27f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(2) Imperial Merlin 0.3/1, Half-brother to useful hurdler/high-class chaser Secret Investor and made a pleasing start when second at Wetherby a month ago. Should be able to go one better with a similar standard of performance.
2
2nd (6) (12/1 +45%) Tommy's Fortune
12/1(+45%)
(6) Tommy's Fortune 12/1, £6,000 3-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 33f) Junior. Likely to need time and distance.
3
3rd (4) (3/1 +65%) Islebriand
3/1(+65%)
(4) Islebriand 3/1, £5,000 3-y-o, On Est Bien gelding. Dam 11f-1¾m winner on Flat. Should have enough speed for this sort of test, so he's worthy of consideration.
4
4th (3) (150/1 -127%) Och One More Gin
150/1(-127%)
(3) Och One More Gin 150/1, Out of a winning Irish pointer but no immediate sign of ability at Kelso 15 days ago. Hard to fancy.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

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.
