1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +50%) My Gift To You		4 4/1(+50%)																															(1) My Gift To You 4/1, Immediate improvement upon joining James Owen, scoring for fifth time overall when taking a Catterick handicap chase in March and has backed that up with solid placed efforts on 5 of his next 6 starts over fences. Sound effort back hurdling last time and he's respected returned to chasing. Running well in defeat this season at up to 3m2f and may well be thereabouts.
2	2 2nd (2) (6/1 +25%) Breakdance Kid		6 6/1(+25%)																															(2) Breakdance Kid 6/1, Ran away with a handicap at Hexham in June and shaped as if back in form after an 11-week break when fifth of 10 in handicap chase at Kelso (21.6f, good) 32 days ago. Should prove competitive again stepped up in trip. 2-6 over fences, with both wins coming at 3m; respected for in-form yard.
3	9 3rd (9) (12/1 +25%) Ocean Legacy		12 12/1(+25%)																															(9) Ocean Legacy 12/1, Winless since last May but his latest fourth in a 16-runner handicap chase at Roscommon (25f, soft, 16/1) was his best effort for some time and he's worth a look in the market having since left Dermot Anthony McLoughlin. Creditable effort on last start in Ireland and new stable is among the winners; chance.
4	3 4th (3) (9/2 +18%) Redbridge Rambler		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(3) Redbridge Rambler 9/2, Signed off last term with Ascot success when upped to a staying trip and showed aptitude when fourth of 8 in handicap chase at Worcester (16.5f, soft, 7/1) on debut over fences 23 days ago, fading only late on. Should progress. Progressive staying hurdler in the spring; well beaten on chase debut but that was over 2m.
5th	5 5th (5) (28/1 -40%) Ali Star Bert		28 28/1(-40%)																															(5) Ali Star Bert 28/1, A three-time 3m chase winner last season who signed off with a good second of 4 in handicap chase at Southwell (24.3f, heavy) in April. Uncharacteristically laboured display on his comeback at Worcester last month, though, and others are preferred. Three wins last season; pulled up at 33-1 on reappearance but may have needed the run.
6th	7 6th (7) (7/2 +13%) Sean Og		3.5 7/2(+13%)																															(7) Sean Og 7/2, Successful twice over fences at Cartmel (21f) this summer and quickly bounced back to form with an excellent second at Hexham 2 weeks ago, finished one place ahead of S. Bumped into a handicap blot there and is of strong interest again. Two wins at Cartmel this summer and bumped into progressive winner when second at Hexham.
8	8 |PU| (8) (5/1 +17%) Steps Match		5 5/1(+17%)																															(8) Steps Match 5/1, Came good at the first time of asking for this yard when a convincing all-the-way winner of a 3m Perth handicap hurdle last month and gave a bold show for a long way when third of 12 in handicap chase at Hexham (24.2f, good, 10/1) 16 days ago. Remains with potential from this chase mark. Ex-Irish 9yo who has been in good form since joining yard; could make another bold bid.
6	6 |PU| (6) (10/1 -122%) Big Bee Hive		10 10/1(-122%)																															(6) Big Bee Hive 10/1, Hurdles winner in Ireland who made perfect start over fences when scoring at Sedgefield (19.3f) in February. Quickly added to his tally when scoring Southwell and Cartmel in May before going close again at Southwell, so has to respected on first outing for 4 months. 3 wins in February/May then runner-up in June; major player if resuming where he left off.
4	4 |PU| (4) (50/1 -400%) Mister Bells		50 50/1(-400%)																															(4) Mister Bells 50/1, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark having his first start in veterans' company at Catterick (25f, soft) in February. Bit below that level at Perth on final outing last season and may prove vulnerable to less-exposed rivals on his return. Won at Catterick in January but this 10yo has to be at the top of his game on reappearance.

15:45 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

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

BIG BEE HIVE has been a revelation since beginning his career over fences at this track in February and going further up in trip should not inconvenience him judging by the most recent evidence at Southwell, when rallying late for second. The seven-year-old gets the vote ahead of Sean Og, who was a highly creditable runner-up at Hexham and has the potential to improve for the rise in distance. Mister Bells and Redbridge Rambler have the form to get involved in proceedings as well.

STEPS MATCH has made a fine start to life for new trainer Daragh Bourke and he can build an encouraging recent third at Hexham, travelling with plenty of enthusiam out in front until the track's gruelling latter stages took their tole, his mark having also dropped 2 lb in the interim. Sean Og finished one place ahead of the selection last time and has to be respected again, with Redbridge Rambler also fancied to step forward from his chase debut.

Top of the list is REDBRIDGE RAMBLER, who was progressive in staying handicap hurdles and goes back up in trip in his second chase.

1	5 1st (5) (11/2 +8%) Jesuitique		5.5 11/2(+8%)																															(5) Jesuitique 11/2, Matched his hurdles form at the first attempt over fences when runner-up at Bangor (24f) last summer, though hasn't built on that effort in 3 starts since. Stiff task at Worcester on his return, but more needed to better his third in this race last year. 3rd in this last year; another good run on sole start since; remains unexposed over fences.
2	4 2nd (4) (12/1 +0%) Jerrash		12 12/1(+0%)																															(4) Jerrash 12/1, Recorded back-to-back wins at Bangor and Market Rasen this summer and good effort when runner-up to Tommie Beau at Cartmel (25.5f) in August. Possibly found race coming too soon a fortnight later at Perth last month, so he's not discounted. Inconsistent this season but won twice in the summer and he's not discounted.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 +25%) Tommie Beau		4.5 9/2(+25%)																															(1) Tommie Beau 9/2, Won over both sets of obstacles at Cartmel in May and added to his tally back chasing at the same course (25.5f) in August. Runner-up over hurdles at Newton Abbot (21.6f) 5 days later and he can make a bold bid to win this race for second year in succession. Won this last year and has continued to improve, winning three times this season.
2	2 |F| (2) (8/1 -60%) Dripsey Moon		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Dripsey Moon 8/1, Winning hurdler who has taken well to chasing for new connections, showing useful form when landing back-to-back handicaps at Perth (20.1f) in August/September. Again ran well when second of 4 at the same C&D last time and he's a leading contender back up in trip. Has done very well for new yard over fences; goes into the unknown stamina-wise.
8	8 |PU| (8) (7/1 +30%) Glory And Honour		7 7/1(+30%)																															(8) Glory And Honour 7/1, Improved for current yard last season tried again over fences and, after 12 weeks off, also scored on the Flat at Pontefract (18f, heavy) 13 days ago. Has dropped below his last winning mark back in this sphere and he's one to note upped in trip. Unproven at the trip but produced strong staying performance for 2m2f Flat win recently.
7	7 |PU| (7) (9/1 +25%) We'llhavewan		9 9/1(+25%)																															(7) We'llhavewan 9/1, Useful winning hurdler but not at the same level over fences, running poorly at Ballinrobe in May (23.4f). Making first start since leaving Willie Mullins, shaped as if needing the run over hurdles at Uttoxeter 2 weeks ago, though others still preferred. Well treated on hurdle form but jumping has been an issue over fences.

16:20 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 2) 29f  Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to look past proven stamina in a contest of this nature and TOMMIE BEAU provides just that, having won this contest last year. The top-weight has struck four times since and good ground may be a plus as he attempts to retain his crown. Dripsey Moon has not been outside the first two since joining the Donald McCain yard and is a big danger. Runner-up over 3m2f at Newton Abbot on his penultimate start, Hauraki Gulf is another who gives the impression he may relish this extreme test.

DRIPSEY MOON continued his positive start over fences for current yard when bumping into a chasing newcomer at Perth on his latest outing, so he is taken to resume winning ways as he goes back up in distance. He is preferred to last year's winner of the race Tommie Beau, who has continued in fine form this summer, while Glory And Honour could also be in the mix.

Course winner HAURAKI GULF is the selection having hinted he could be well suited by a marathon test. Jesuitique is second choice.

1	5 1st (5) (10/3 +17%) The Navigator		3.333333 10/3(+17%)																															(5) The Navigator 10/3, Course scorer who resumed winning ways in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Kelso (20.9f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Up 4 lb but he's weighted to go well again. Two hurdle wins this season and he's 3-7 here; on the shortlist.
2	2 2nd (2) (13/8 +41%) Jaramillo		1.625 13/8(+41%)																															(2) Jaramillo 13/8, Scored over C&D in September but he's an unreliable sort and came in last of 13 in Flat handicap at Kempton (12f) 9 days ago. No surprise to see him get back on track here. Made it 2-2 here with easy C&D win last month; a 9lb rise may well not stop him.
3	3 3rd (3) (11/4 +45%) Harper Valley		2.75 11/4(+45%)																															(3) Harper Valley 11/4, Scored three times last season, including over C&D, and he ran well in first-time cheekpieces when fifth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (22.7f) in May. That form has been franked so big shout off a 2 lb lower mark. Progressive ways stalled in the spring but returns from a break with trainer in good form.
4	4 4th (4) (9/2 +31%) Finisk River		4.5 9/2(+31%)																															(4) Finisk River 9/2, Resumed winning ways at Bangor in September and not discredited when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (21.6f, good) 30 days ago. Also took this event in 2022 so he's very much one to consider. Won this race in 2022 and at Bangor two starts ago; capable of having a say.
5th	1 5th (1) (22/1 -175%) Hajey		22 22/1(-175%)																															(1) Hajey 22/1, C&D winner but off the track since a rare below-par sixth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f) in February. Has gone well fresh though so needs considering. First outing since below-par run in February but can go well fresh and has won here twice.

16:55 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

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

The Navigator bounced back to form when landing the spoils at Kelso a fortnight ago and a 4lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid. However, it could be worth taking a chance on C&D winner HARPER VALLEY, who scored on his reappearance here last season. Dual track-and-trip scorer Finisk River, who claimed this prize in 2022, is another who enjoys it at this venue and the veteran shouldn't be far away.

None of these can be ruled out but HARPER VALLEY enjoyed a very good time of it last season and this C&D scorer looks the way to go with the form of his latest Kelso fifth having been well advertised since. Dianne Sayer's versatile course winner The Navigator heads the list of dangers, with 2022 victor Finish River also firmly in the picture.

The Navigator likes it here but preference is for JARAMILLO (nap), who made it 2-2 at Sedgefield with a comfortable win last month.

Dam (c128/h126) 19f-3m hurdle/chase winner. Unplaced both starts in Irish points, last of 5 finishers on latest (Mar 23).

Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Tempestatefloresco. Successful on second of 2 starts in point bumpers (Feb 2024). One to note.

3	3 3rd (3) (12/1 +25%) Berkshire Lad		12 12/1(+25%)																															(3) Berkshire Lad 12/1, Related to a bumper winner and was sent off 6/1 on debut. Didn't come up to expectations, however, so will need to prove a different proposition. Tailed off on sole start but was just 6-1 and had excuse; trainer's horses run well here.
4	1 4th (1) (11/1 -10%) Clearisthewater		11 11/1(-10%)																															(1) Clearisthewater 11/1, Point winner who may come on for his Rules debut in a bumper at Warwick earlier in the month. In good hands and isn't a forlorn hope. Soundly beaten in sole bumper but this point winner could be capable of much better.
5th	8 5th (8) (10/11 +34%) Karton Plein		0.909091 10/11(+34%)																															(8) Karton Plein 10/11, €40,000 3-y-o, Karaktar gelding. Half-brother to 11f/1½m winner in France Porta Saragozza. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Apr 27) and stable has a solid record in this sphere. Second on debut in Irish point and in-form trainer does well in bumpers; strong claims.

7th	6 7th (6) (100/1 -150%) Dartie Bay		100 100/1(-150%)																															(6) Dartie Bay 100/1, Offered little when ninth of 10 over C&D on debut and hard to imagine him making a significantly bigger impact in this. 20-1 when 13l ninth of ten in slowly run bumper over C&D (good) in May on debut.
8th	9 8th (9) (25/1 -56%) Seeyainthesuninn		25 25/1(-56%)																															(9) Seeyainthesuninn 25/1, Half-brother to numerous winners, including bumper winner/useful hurdler Zulu Oscar. Not enough encouragement in his debut to make him of serious interest in this, though. Half-brother to five winners; showed some ability on debut and he's open to improvement.
9th	2 9th (2) (16/1 0%) Sam's Falcon		16 16/1(0%)																															(2) Sam's Falcon 16/1, Black Sam Bellamy gelding. Brother to useful hurdler Sam's Gunner. Dam (b85) placed in bumpers.

17:30 Sedgefield NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Olly Murphy sends sole representative KARTON PLEIN to this meeting and a big performance is expected. The four-year-old finished a respectable second in a 3m Irish point-to-point in April, but he possesses enough speed in his pedigree to handle this distance and a winning Rules debut is forecast. Swingingonthesteel arrives on the back of a victory between the flags and he is feared most, ahead of newcomer Sam's Falcon.

KARTON PLEIN has shown ability in points and, given his connections, is likely to be tuned up for this Rules debut, so he's preferred to Swingingonthesteel, who won a point bumper in February. Clearisthewater is the best option of those with bumper experience.

Point runner-up KARTON PLEIN makes his first start for Olly Murphy, who does well in bumpers, and is taken to come out on top.

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.
