Info	Form	Odds
1	11 1st (11) (11/1 +67%) Sakakawea	11 11/1(+67%)	(11) Sakakawea 11/1, Twice-raced filly. 66/1, ninth of 14 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 14 days ago. Hasn't shown enough in two starts so far at huge odds.
2	5 2nd (5) (10/1 +38%) Bella Mistiko	10 10/1(+38%)	(5) Bella Mistiko 10/1, Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 12 in maiden (20/1) at Gowran (8f, heavy) 12 days ago. Down in trip. Only minor promise in 2 runs so far and needs the drop in trip to spark marked improvement.
3	2 3rd (2) (11/1 -57%) Marble Angel	11 11/1(-57%)	(2) Marble Angel 11/1, Once-raced filly. 16/1, fifth of 9 in maiden at Dundalk (6f) on debut. Off 144 days. Should have more to offer. Green but ran okay on AW debut and should progress for yard that do well here.
4	4 4th (4) (12/1 -33%) Always Love You	12 12/1(-33%)	(4) Always Love You 12/1, Thrice-raced filly. 22/1, first run since leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis when tenth of 13 in maiden at Beverley (5f, heavy). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Darryll Holland. Encouraging debut at Windsor but struggled twice since; may need this after 228 days off.
5th	8 5th (8) (11/8 -10%) Katie Bairdie	1.375 11/8(-10%)	(8) Katie Bairdie 11/8, Much better for debut when third of 10 in maiden at Cork (7f, heavy) 36 days ago, clear of rest. Sets the standard and likely to improve again. Left debut behind with 3rd latest and shorter trip may help her settle; handy draw.
6th	1 6th (1) (200/1 -33%) Florence Thompson	200 200/1(-33%)	(1) Florence Thompson 200/1, Remains a maiden after 48 Flat runs. 100/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (6f) 51 days ago. 48-race maiden; struggling from basement mark on AW and much tougher task back in a maiden.
7th	10 7th (10) (2/1 +11%) Oh So Bright	2 2/1(+11%)	(10) Oh So Bright 2/1, Thrice-raced filly. 10/1, third of 8 in maiden at Dundalk (6f) 22 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Should be in the mix again. Not beaten far in 2 6f AW races recently and shorter may be fine; turf debut with hood.
8th	12 8th (12) (25/1 -178%) Sister Mila	25 25/1(-178%)	(12) Sister Mila 25/1, €18,000 yearling, Kodi Bear filly. Half-sister to useful 6f/7f winner Graphite Storm and 6f winner Company Minx. Dam unraced. Kodi Bear filly; half-sister to 2 winning sprinter; worth a market check.
9th	6 9th (6) (28/1 -75%) Beyond Your Dreams	28 28/1(-75%)	(6) Beyond Your Dreams 28/1, Twice-raced filly. 40/1, eleventh of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (8f), slowly away. Off 93 days. Down in trip. 4-1 for her debut but was well held and similar story second run; not bred for this trip.
10th	7 10th (7) (40/1 -82%) Girl Of Sardinia	40 40/1(-82%)	(7) Girl Of Sardinia 40/1, €5,500 foal, €4,000 yearling, Buratino filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including useful 6f winner Twelfth Knight and 6f-7f winner Daring Guest. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Buratino filly; plenty of speed on the dam's side and yard do well with sprinters.

Fozzy Stack has made a bright start to the season and may get another winner on the board with KATIE BAIRDIE. The well bred daughter of No Nay Never travelled well on the front end for a long way before finishing third over 7f at Cork and may be suited by dropping back in trip. She handled heavy ground well on that seasonal reappearance. Oh So Bright hasn't been beaten far in two recent all-weather outings. Having shown a tendency to race freely, the fitting of a hood may help on turf debut. Andy Oliver has a good record at this venue and Marble Angel, who showed promise at Dundalk in December, looks the pick of his two runners.

KATIE BAIRDIE left her debut well behind when third at Cork on return and looks the one to beat in a weak maiden. Oh So Bright is a clear next best, though Marble Angel did offer something to work on starting out at Dundalk in December.

KATIE BAIRDIE (nap) gets the vote after giving the impression she may improve for a drop in distance at Cork last time

5	5 (5) (40/1 -21%) Bright Lightening	40 40/1(-21%)	(5) Bright Lightening 40/1, Twice-raced filly. 50/1, eighth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (6f) 23 days ago, not clear run and again better than the bare result. Struggled at big prices in two runs over sprint trips so far; one for h'caps after this.
1	7 1st (7) (6/1 +33%) Her Ladyship	6 6/1(+33%)	(7) Her Ladyship 6/1, Once-raced filly. Seventh of 16 in maiden at Cork (6f, good, 33/1) on debut, having to pick way through. Off 9 months. Beaten 7l in a Cork maiden in July and form has worked out very nicely; player if fit.
2	10 2nd (10) (8/11 -46%) Spanish Cara	0.727273 8/11(-46%)	(10) Spanish Cara 8/11, Promising type. Off 13 months/first run since leaving J. S. Bolger when good second of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (6f, 6/5) 23 days ago. Claims are crystal clear. Promising debut before a big run on yard debut on AW; will go well if settling better.
3	4 3rd (4) (6/1 -71%) Goldrush Kid	6 6/1(-71%)	(4) Goldrush Kid 6/1, Promising type. Improved when second of 15 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, heavy, 15/2) 6 months ago, clear of rest. Gelded. More to come. Improved from to chase home nice prospect in Navan maiden; gelded since; off 200 days.
4	11 4th (11) (16/5 +29%) Thrifty Of Digby	3.2 16/5(+29%)	(11) Thrifty Of Digby 16/5, 12/1, fifth of 13 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft) on debut, never nearer. Off 7 months. Has ability and one to note on return. Shaped okay when fifth in a Curragh maiden only 2yo start but form has taken a few knocks.
5th	6 5th (6) (28/1 +15%) Empress Alma	28 28/1(+15%)	(6) Empress Alma 28/1, Once-raced filly. 80/1, sixth of 13 in maiden at Dundalk (6f) on debut 23 days ago, not knocked about. Should progress. Beaten roughly 9l in an AW maiden last month over 6f; may improve when stepped up in trip.
6th	8 6th (8) (33/1 +0%) Leni Mo	33 33/1(+0%)	(8) Leni Mo 33/1, Gustav Klimt filly. Sister to ungenuine 5.7f winner Gustav Ucicky and half-sister to winner up to 1¼m Teubesly and 6f-1m winner Dashings Diamond. Wears hood. Speedily bred but hood for debut probably not a good sign.
7th	3 7th (3) (200/1 -100%) Sin E Shekells	200 200/1(-100%)	(3) Sin E Shekells 200/1, Remains a maiden after 39 Flat runs. Twenty fifth of 27 in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy, 100/1) 14 days ago. 0-39; lost his way at the end of last year and no signs of a revival on his recent return.

Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Struggled at huge odds in 4 runs so far; cheekpieces need to bring vast improvement.
1	1 \|U\| (1) (200/1 +0%) Gift Of Life	200 200/1(+0%)	(1) Gift Of Life 200/1, Once-raced gelding. Last of 14 in maiden (125/1) at Dundalk (8f) on debut. Off 9 months. Down in trip. Tailed off when 125-1 for an AW maiden last year and remains best watched for now.

GOLDRUSH KID met with a setback after finishing fifth in a Curragh maiden this time last year. Patrick Magee's charge reappeared in the autumn and again shaped well when runner-up on soft ground at Navan. Underfoot conditions will be similar here. Spanish Cara was third to a subsequent Group 1 winner on her only start at two and came back from a year off to finish second on stable debut at Dundalk. She looks a big threat with that run under her belt. Thrifty Of Digby was a creditable fifth in a back-end Curragh maiden on soft ground and Colin Keane is an interesting booking for Her Ladyship who ran well in a strong maiden at Cork last summer.

A weak maiden and a very good opportunity for SPANISH CARA, who sets the standard. Goldrush Kid might be the danger, ahead of Thrifty of Digby.

HER LADYSHIP may offer a bit of each-way value after her promising run in a Cork maiden that has worked out well

14:15 Sligo Maiden 6f PREDICTION SIMULATION

14:50 Sligo Handicap 6f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	11 1st (11) (9/2 +31%) Gegenpressing	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(11) Gegenpressing 9/2, C&D winner. Twenty runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, good 3 lengths seventh of 27 to Redshore City in handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 14 days ago, never nearer. One to consider. C&D Winner; beaten 3l latest and can't rule out but he has a poor draw to work with.
2	13 2nd (13) (12/1 -118%) Sadiqaa	12 12/1(-118%)	(13) Sadiqaa 12/1, Twenty eight runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fourth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy, 20/1) 25 days ago, never nearer. Difficult ask. On losing run; ran okay latest but this trip is probably on sharp side.
3	10 3rd (10) (14/1 +65%) Eruption	14 14/1(+65%)	(10) Eruption 14/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. Last of 13 in handicap (50/1) at Dundalk (6f) 6 months ago. Went close twice last season but losing run is 2 years and struggling when last seen.
4	4 4th (4) (7/1 +42%) Sneddy Eddie	7 7/1(+42%)	(4) Sneddy Eddie 7/1, C&D winner. Fourteenth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy, 15/2) 25 days ago. Won twice last year including a course win but poor comeback run and tough draw now.
5th	8 5th (8) (17/2 -89%) My Girl Sioux	8.5 17/2(-89%)	(8) My Girl Sioux 17/2, 9/2, respectable fourth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 23 days ago, not ideally placed. Shaping well again but is a 24-race maiden. 0-24; best form on AW; not beaten far at Dundalk latest but tough draw on turf return.
6th	9 6th (9) (40/1 -43%) Vikki Wall	40 40/1(-43%)	(9) Vikki Wall 40/1, Poor maiden. Off 6 months. Work to do. Nine-race maiden who was out of form at the back end of last season and off 198 days.

8th	6 8th (6) (9/4 +18%) Redshore City	2.25 9/4(+18%)	(6) Redshore City 9/4, 9/1, improved on recent efforts to win 27-runner handicap at the Curragh (6f, heavy) 14 days ago. Not an obvious one for the follow up. Won at the 19th attempt at the Curragh 2 weeks ago; 5lb higher but went close last year.
9th	12 9th (12) (20/1 -100%) No Speed Limit	20 20/1(-100%)	(12) No Speed Limit 20/1, Eighth of 9 in handicap at Dundalk (5f, 8/1) 22 days ago. All best form is on AW but lower turf mark helps and he's got a good draw for his tactics.
10th	7 10th (7) (12/1 -20%) Inventor	12 12/1(-20%)	(7) Inventor 12/1, C&D winner. Off 6 months. Cheekpieces back on. Not a great record fresh but on a good mark. 1 of his 2 wins came here but unplaced in 5 runs last year and off 200 days.
11th	1 11th (1) (25/1 -56%) Aloysius Lilius	25 25/1(-56%)	(1) Aloysius Lilius 25/1, 20/1, last of 9 in handicap at Dundalk (5f) 22 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others more persuasive. Last of 10 on AW return; only 2lb above last winning mark but poor draw.
12th	2 12th (2) (33/1 -18%) Kami	33 33/1(-18%)	(2) Kami 33/1, C&D winner. Well-beaten last of 27 to Redshore City in handicap (80/1) at the Curragh (6f, heavy) on return 14 days ago. Blinkers back on. C&D winner from 2lb lower but slowly away when tailed off on return; must break on terms.
13th	14 13th (14) (33/1 -65%) Zig Zag Zyggy	33 33/1(-65%)	(14) Zig Zag Zyggy 33/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Last of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Dundalk (6f) 81 days ago. Lost his form on AW last couple of starts; freshened up since and good turf strike-rate.
14th	3 14th (3) (80/1 -264%) Akeela	80 80/1(-264%)	(3) Akeela 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Seventeenth of 21 in handicap (66/1) at Navan (5f, good to soft) 8 days ago, not much room. Watch the betting. Minor promise in maidens but low-key h'cap debut and has a horror draw.

REDSHORE CITY made the breakthrough on his third start for Natalia Lupini when getting up close home to land a 27-runner handicap at the Curragh. He's 5lb higher but soft ground will be no problem and he was narrowly beaten over C&D last summer. Conversant had a couple of unplaced runs under his belt when winning this last year and comes here on the back of a similar preparation. This soft-ground specialist should be competitive. Gegenpressing is on a long losing run but his mark has fallen accordingly and one of his three victories came over C&D. He had plenty of rivals behind when three lengths off the selection at the Curragh.

Hard, but GEGENPRESSING won on his last visit to Sligo and is chanced after catching the eye in stronger races at the Curragh. My Girl Sioux and Redshore City are a couple of the other likely contenders.

A flyer is taken on NO SPEED LIMIT who may be able to dominate from the front with a handy draw to work with in stall 3

14:50 Sligo Handicap 6f PREDICTION SIMULATION

15:25 Sligo Handicap 13f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	14 1st (14) (5/1 +58%) War Thunder	5 5/1(+58%)	(14) War Thunder 5/1, 7/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 156 days. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving D. J. Ryan. 24-race maiden and poor run on AW when last seen; off 156 days and starts for new yard now.
2	3 2nd (3) (12/1 -71%) Glyde Ranger	12 12/1(-71%)	(3) Glyde Ranger 12/1, C&D winner. One win from 21 Flat runs. 13/2, tenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 86 days ago, slowly away. 1-21; sole win over C&D with this rider; running well in defeat on AW this winter.
3	8 3rd (8) (9/1 +64%) Enquire Within	9 9/1(+64%)	(8) Enquire Within 9/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. Twelfth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at Dundalk (16f) 40 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and she should step up on that reappearance. 1-26; low-key AW return latest and still 5lb above her last winning mark.
4	7 4th (7) (25/1 -56%) Sand Castle	25 25/1(-56%)	(7) Sand Castle 25/1, 12/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (16f) 40 days ago. Lost his form on AW and unplaced in 9 turf starts but front-runner with good draw.

Off 7 months but better expected back on the Flat. 0-21 on the Flat and pulled up over hurdles when last seen; off 218 days and hard to fancy.
6th	9 6th (9) (6/1 +40%) Big Challenge	6 6/1(+40%)	(9) Big Challenge 6/1, C&D winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f, 11/1). Off 107 days. Course winner; long losing run since 2021 but minor signs of revival on AW when last seen.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/2 +13%) Grann's Boy	3.5 7/2(+13%)	(1) Grann's Boy 7/2, Third of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Tramore (16.6f, good to soft, 16/1) 14 days ago.

8th	11 8th (11) (66/1 -100%) Creative Dancer	66 66/1(-100%)	(11) Creative Dancer 66/1, Thrice-raced maiden on Flat. Tenth of 15 in handicap hurdle (40/1) at Bellewstown (20.3f, good).

9th	10 9th (10) (11/1 -38%) Special Protector	11 11/1(-38%)	(10) Special Protector 11/1, 33/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 72 days ago. Others more persuasive. 0-21; not a bad run on AW when last seen but the widest draw will be tough to overcome.
2	2 \|B\| (2) (11/1 +67%) Hangry	11 11/1(+67%)	(2) Hangry 11/1, Good ninth of 19 in handicap (66/1) at Navan (13f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Dangerous if building on that. Unplaced in 5 runs for this yard and beaten 6l at Navan last month; hasn't shown enough.
5	5 \|S\| (5) (15/2 -50%) Neddies Boy	7.5 15/2(-50%)	(5) Neddies Boy 15/2, Winner at Dundalk in February. 13/2 and cheekpieces on for first time, respectable fifth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f) 51 days ago. Big player switched to turf. Consistent on AW this winter and head in front over 1m4f in Feb'; bit to prove on turf.
10th	4 10th (4) (12/1 -100%) Circus Act	12 12/1(-100%)	(4) Circus Act 12/1, Creditable third of 6 in handicap hurdle (7/2) at Navan (15.7f, heavy) 43 days ago. Switches back to the Flat and one to consider. 0-7 on the level; went close over 2m on AW this winter; drop in trip and draw against her.

GRANN'S BOY is fit from hurdling and looks capable of defying top weight. The Zoffany gelding began to improve on testing ground in the autumn and beat Special Protector over 1m4f at Galway on his latest start in this sphere. A 5lb hike looks reasonable and he's open to more improvement this term. Glyde Ranger won over C&D last summer and was placed a couple of times at Dundalk over the winter. Back from a break, he'll enjoy the cut in the ground. Enquire Within, a winner at Navan last term, has run well at this track before and will be better for her first start of the year at Dundalk.

In the hope he's as effective on turf, NEDDIES BOY could be the answer given he was in excellent order at Dundalk when last seen. Grann's Boy put up a career-best effort on the level at Galway in October and is a definite threat, along with Futurum Regem.

GRANN'S BOY signed off last season with a Flat success and he showed his well-being with a respectable run over timber last month

15:25 Sligo Handicap 13f PREDICTION SIMULATION

16:00 Sligo Handicap 10f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds
1	1 1st (1) (17/2 -89%) Belhaven	8.5 17/2(-89%)	(1) Belhaven 17/2, 7/1, good second of 8 in handicap at Nottingham (10.2f, heavy), just failing. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Harry Eustace. Strong claims starting out for excellent yard. 55,000gns buy from Harry Eustace; decent form at up to 1m2f and ground-versatile.
2	10 2nd (10) (4/1 +64%) Whimsy	4 4/1(+64%)	(10) Whimsy 4/1, 16/1, fifth of 19 in handicap at Navan (13f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Booking of Hassett a plus. Well treated if she can build on that mildly encouraging return. Barely got home over 1m5f at Navan, drop in trip here could suit.
3	4 3rd (4) (15/2 -7%) You Owe Me Money	7.5 15/2(-7%)	(4) You Owe Me Money 15/2, 8/1, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Cork (10.2f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Others look better treated. Promising Cork comeback run puts her right in the mix here.
4	2 4th (2) (25/1 -56%) No Niki No	25 25/1(-56%)	(2) No Niki No 25/1, Last of 10 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 40/1). Off 6 months. Others have achieved more lately. Leopardstown winner last summer held subsequently and mark remains on the high side.
5th	5 5th (5) (16/1 +0%) Pachmena	16 16/1(+0%)	(5) Pachmena 16/1, Two wins from 44 Flat runs. Good fourth of 11 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f, 25/1) 51 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Enters calculations. Not so effective on AW but certainly not one to rule out back on turf from in-form yard.
6th	6 6th (6) (5/1 +17%) Narlita	5 5/1(+17%)	(6) Narlita 5/1, Creditable second of 9 in handicap (9/4) at Galway (11.8f, heavy), clear of rest. Off 6 months. Can give a good account if ready to go. Soft-ground performer can run well fresh and capable of a bold showing here off this mark.
7th	7 7th (7) (10/3 -48%) Camelot Alexander	3.333333 10/3(-48%)	(7) Camelot Alexander 10/3, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap (9/2) at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 12 days ago. More to come from her this year and deserves plenty of respect. Won going away at Gowran; 9lb rise but likely more to come.
8th	11 8th (11) (66/1 -136%) Dumb Love	66 66/1(-136%)	(11) Dumb Love 66/1, Fourth of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Tramore (16.6f, good to soft, 80/1) on NH debut 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Overall recent record leaves her with a fair bit to find and yet to convince over this far.
9th	3 9th (3) (7/1 -40%) God Knows	7 7/1(-40%)	(3) God Knows 7/1, Good third of 21 in handicap (10/1) at the Curragh (7f, heavy) 14 days ago, inadequate test. Significantly back up in trip. One to consider. Eyecatching seasonal return over inadequate trip; big run expected now back up in trip.
10th	8 10th (8) (20/1 -67%) Red Heel	20 20/1(-67%)	(8) Red Heel 20/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2022. First run since leaving W. McCreery when respectable fourth of 8 in handicap (9/1) at Gowran (7f, soft) 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Front-runner over shorter trips, hard to see her seeing this out.
11th	9 11th (9) (11/1 +31%) Red Trail	11 11/1(+31%)	(9) Red Trail 11/1, 14/1, respectable sixth of 17 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 12 days ago. Hood back on. Not completely dismissed. Looked as though the run would bring her on at Gowran recently but still others preferred.

The lightly-raced GOD KNOWS ran a cracker when reappearing over seven furlongs on testing ground at the Curragh last month and should be better suited by this distance. The Dick Brabazon-trained mare went close in a Curragh maiden last summer before opening her account also over ten furlongs in a Down Royal handicap. You Owe Me Money won twice at Gowran last year with cut in the ground and was well backed when making a promising reappearance over this trip at Cork recently finishing third behind Nostringsattached. Pachmena beat Narlita in decisive fashion over 1m4f at the Curragh last autumn, while Camelot Alexander impressed when switched to a handicap at Gowran last month.

CAMELOT ALEXANDER stepped up markedly and had plenty to spare when landing an 8-runner handicap at Gowran on reappearance, so she's fancied to go in again with the potential for better still. Belhaven ended last season on a positive note and makes plenty of appeal on debut for a new stable, while God Knows can't be dismissed.

Although hit with a 9lb rise for her Gowran win, CAMELOT ALEXANDER shaped like a filly with a lot more improvement in her

NOT JUST ANY EAGLE gained his only previous win on handicap debut over this trip at Cork in 2022 and has gone close on a number of occasions since. The selection was runner-up twice on soft ground last year and also ran well on the polytrack at Dundalk over the winter. Saffronandblue won with a bit in hand when beating Angel On Fire by over two lengths on very testing ground at Leopardstown last month but Martin Brassil's charge has more on his plate off a 10lb higher mark. Darkened and Anjah were only separated by a neck at Dundalk in March, while Daonethatgotaway has been placed both on the all-weather and heavy ground this spring and can't be discounted if staying this longer trip.

RED BALL OF FIRE shaped well when last seen on the Flat a year ago and won over jumps in this headgear last summer so she might be worth chancing back from a break. Easy Leopardstown winner Saffronandblue is feared most ahead of Kartayaz and Angel On Fire.

SAFFRONANDBLUE got a 10lb hike for beating Angel On Fire at Leopardstown last month but is open to greater improvement of the pair

SYLKIE showed promise when keeping on into third on her handicap debut over seven furlongs in the mud at Naas in March. The Starspangledbanner filly has good prospects of staying this trip on the dam side being out of a ten-furlong winning daughter of Australia. Moutarde showed much improved form when making most and rallying very gamely close home to take a 19-runner mile handicap at Naas on Monday and should make a bold bid for a quick follow up, while Solar Drive also comes here off the back of a recent win having scored over 1m4f at Cork. Nika Pika has shown promise this year and now tries this trip for the first time.

Recent winners SOLAR DRIVE and Moutarde may dominate this but the former was more impressive and is taken to prevail. Out For A Stroll is the most notable of several handicap debutants who are worth monitoring in the betting.

Recent Cork winner SOLAR DRIVE can follow up, chiefly at the expense of Moutarde and Sylkie

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.
