1	10 1st (10) (13/8 +82%) Lyle View		1.625 13/8(+82%)																															(10) Lyle View 13/8, Runner-up on the last of 3 outings in points and fared a bit better in a first-time hood when fourth in an 11-runner Uttoxeter handicap (15.8f, heavy) on New Year's Eve. Now 2 lb lower and live each-way claims now moving back up in trip. Respectable fourth at Uttoxeter and has claims if she can build on that back up in trip.
2	4 2nd (4) (6/1 -20%) Gotthereintheend		6 6/1(-20%)																															(4) Gotthereintheend 6/1, Showed a bit in bumpers and improved on previous hurdling efforts when a staying-on second in a novice at Warick last spring. Not so good in a first-time tongue strap (retained here) on return and handicap/yard debut at Ascot in December but she's probably worth another chance. May have had stamina or fitness issues on Ascot stable debut; not ruled out back in trip.
3	8 3rd (8) (22/1 -57%) Lady Harriett		22 22/1(-57%)																															(8) Lady Harriett 22/1, Opened account at Ffos Las in November but has followed that with two heavy defeats and now finds herself with a point to prove. Off the mark at Ffos Las (2m4f) in November but she's struggled in both runs since.
4	12 4th (12) (14/1 -56%) Oneforthefairgreen		14 14/1(-56%)																															(12) Oneforthefairgreen 14/1, Reappearance second at Leicester represented a step forward but she has failed to build on that since and not sure that this step back up in trip is what she wants. Runner-up at Leicester in November but well held in both runs since and she's now 0-12.
5th	9 5th (9) (20/1 -43%) Princess Keri		20 20/1(-43%)																															(9) Princess Keri 20/1, From the family of Welsh Grand National winner Potters Corner. Little impact in 3 runs under Rules so far but she's another who could be seen in a better light now switched to handicap company. In good hands and still lightly raced but she needs plenty of progress on handicap debut.
6th	11 6th (11) (13/2 -86%) Hey Mama Rock Me		6.5 13/2(-86%)																															(11) Hey Mama Rock Me 13/2, Stoutly bred and produced by far her best effort yet when chasing home an improver upped to 23.8f on return at Musselburgh (soft) on New Year's Day. Provided that this drop back in trip doesn't count against her, she should make a bold bid to go one better. Promising second on recent handicap debut at Musselburgh (3m); respected back in trip.
7th	3 7th (3) (14/1 +13%) Ici La Reine		14 14/1(+13%)																															(3) Ici La Reine 14/1, Dual AW bumper winner who shaped fairly well when fifth on 20.5f Market Rasen hurdles debut in November 2023. However, she has failed to build on that in 3 subsequent starts and needs to get back on track returning from 9 months for her new yard. Two bumper wins but no progress in four hurdle runs; bit to prove on return for new yard.
8th	6 8th (6) (40/1 -21%) Laddie Cooper Mia		40 40/1(-21%)																															(6) Laddie Cooper Mia 40/1, Shaped like a stayer in 3 bumpers and remote second of 4 in novice hurdle at Sedgefield (19.8f, good) on hurdles bow in November. Safely held next 2 starts and needs to raise her game now pitched into a handicap. Still early days and now goes handicapping but she needs a transformation.
9th	1 9th (1) (25/1 -150%) Loud And Proud		25 25/1(-150%)																															(1) Loud And Proud 25/1, Winless following 8 attempts between the flags and hasn't made much of an impact in mares' maiden/novice hurdles so far. Still, better could be forthcoming now upped in trip for this handicap debut for her up-and-coming yard. Watch the betting. Unexposed over hurdles and is a possible improver upped in trip on handicap debut.
7	7 |PU| (7) (3/1 +25%) Wilmcote		3 3/1(+25%)																															(7) Wilmcote 3/1, Showed ability amidst greenness in 2 bumpers and bettered her novice exploits in this sphere when third of 11 on handicap debut at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) just before Christmas. 1 lb lower now and promises to be suited by this stiffer test, so there's certainly cause for optimism. Eyecatching third on handicap debut at Uttoxeter and she looks interesting upped in trip.
13	13 |PU| (13) (11/1 +8%) Extra Cover		11 11/1(+8%)																															(13) Extra Cover 11/1, Hasn't offered much in a bumper nor 5 starts over hurdles and hopes now pinned on the first-time visor sparking improvement. Still unexposed but needs a visor to make a big difference on this drop back in trip.
5	5 |PU| (5) (25/1 -39%) Omaha Wish		25 25/1(-39%)																															(5) Omaha Wish 25/1, Opened account over fences for Dan Skelton at Fakenham last summer but efforts for present yard have left a fair bit to be desired. On lower mark on this return to hurdling and she's hard to rule out back up in trip.
14	14 |PU| (14) (28/1 +15%) Misting		28 28/1(+15%)																															(14) Misting 28/1, Little promise in bumpers and similar story over hurdles so far, showing signs of temperament but not a great deal in the way of ability. 0-7 and pulled up in both handicaps; tongue-tie is now added and has lots to prove.
2	2 |PU| (2) (100/1 -100%) Time For Tea		100 100/1(-100%)																															(2) Time For Tea 100/1, Fair maiden hurdler at best for Henry de Bromhead in Ireland but she's difficult to make a case for on the back of a very poor debut performance for this yard at Taunton. Nine-race maiden and was pulled up at 80-1 on handicap/stable debut last month.

15:18 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

HEY MAMA ROCK ME was well beaten into second in a stronger event at Musselburgh, but she takes a drop in trip and has a 2lb lower mark to contend with. The booking of James Bowen aids her cause further so she might be able to make her second handicap start a successful one. Wilmcote produced a better effort to reach the frame on her handicap bow at Uttoxeter and is an interesting contender on her first attempt over this distance. Gotthereintheend is another to note.

While this drop back in trip is of dubious benefit, HEY MAMA ROCK ME is nevertheless appealing on the back of an improved reappearance second upped to a trip just shy of 3m at Musselburgh. Conversely, Wilmcote is going up in trip following a decent effort over the minimum distance at Uttoxeter and she will be a threat if, as expected, this stiffer test helps eke out a little more. Lyle View and handicap debutante Princess Keri are also shortlisted.

This step up in trip looks a good move for WILMCOTE and she's a big player if scan build on her eyecatching third at Uttoxeter.

1	11 1st (11) (7/2 +75%) Shantwopointfive		3.5 7/2(+75%)																															(11) Shantwopointfive 7/2, Irish point winner who built on hurdles debut promise when landing a 7-runner maiden at Cartmel (2¾m, good to soft) in May. May have needed the run back on testing ground when fifth of 9 in a handicap hurdle at Leicester (20.5f, heavy) 60 days ago. Should come on for that. Maiden winner last spring and shaped quite well on handicap debut in December, after break.
2	10 2nd (10) (3/1 -9%) Bobby Socks		3 3/1(-9%)																															(10) Bobby Socks 3/1, On the up in 2023 winning brace of 2½m handicaps, one over C&D. Showed he still retains plenty of ability when third of 10 in a handicap hurdle at Leicester (15.5f) on the back of a 17-month absence. Entiled to come on for that and had another wind surgery since. Interesting contender for top yard. Would appeal more on good ground but still helps to give stable a strong hand in this race.
3	1 3rd (1) (14/1 -75%) Whatsupwithyou		14 14/1(-75%)																															(1) Whatsupwithyou 14/1, Veteran isn't the easiest to win with. Well-backed when headgear back on at Cheltenham in November but a shade disappointing that day. Regressed when tenth of 13 in handicap hurdle (20/1) at Ascot (21.6f, good to soft) 45 days ago. Blinkers tried today but others have stronger claims. On a good mark now but needs to be perked up by a change of headgear today.
4	9 4th (9) (15/2 +46%) Whatsyourproblem		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(9) Whatsyourproblem 15/2, Has yet to build on the promise of his hurdle debut second in Ireland, has ran okay in two stars for Fergal O'Brien, latest third of 9 in a novice hurdle (7/1) at Doncaster (20.8f, good) 66 days ago. Should be more at home in handicaps but we may not see the best of him until he tackles fences. Below his Irish hurdling form on first two starts for this stable but remains unexposed.
5th	3 5th (3) (5/1 -11%) Shared		5 5/1(-11%)																															(3) Shared 5/1, Improved when taking a 2m Chepstow handicap on reappearance last season and ended that campaign with a creditable effort at Warwick. His tendency to race lazily has been evident this season, although not suited by sharper test at Plumpton last time. Claims if on a going day back up in trip. Became rather disappointing last year; needs to up his game on first run for three months.
6th	6 6th (6) (11/2 +39%) Toonagh Warrior		5.5 11/2(+39%)																															(6) Toonagh Warrior 11/2, Placed in brace of Southwell handicaps at up to this trip with cheekpieces fitted this winter. Jumped well and was better value than his finishing position when sixth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Newbury (24.2f), had his stamina stretched. Should be in the mix back down in trip in first-time blinkers. Second twice in cheekpieces here in the autumn; below that form since; now tries blinkers.
7th	5 7th (5) (9/1 -64%) Bread And Butter		9 9/1(-64%)																															(5) Bread And Butter 9/1, Right back to form since undergoing a wind op, winning 3 on the bounce under Lewis Saunders before respectable third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, good to soft), faring best of those who raced off the pace. Can be competitive again but handicapper has made life tougher now. Won three in a row in the autumn and was placed off today's mark last time; big player.
8th	7 8th (7) (18/1 -13%) D'jo Dela Barriere		18 18/1(-13%)																															(7) D'jo Dela Barriere 18/1, Struck at the second time of asking for Evan Williams in 2m Hereford novice earlier this season. Struggled to make an impact back over fences and returns to smaller obstacles, making his handicap debut in this sphere. Not many miles on the clock but others preferred here. Safely held in two chases since easily winning a weak novice hurdle; others preferred.
9th	4 9th (4) (12/1 +40%) Churchills Boy		12 12/1(+40%)																															(4) Churchills Boy 12/1, Bumper winner and already a dual winner in this sphere in 2022/2023. Bounced back from disappointing effort when a respectable fourth at Plumpton (20.5f, good) back in April 2023 but off the track since and likely to need the outing here. Dual novice winner in 2022-23 season; returns from long absence today.
2	2 |PU| (2) (11/1 -22%) The Winslow Boy		11 11/1(-22%)																															(2) The Winslow Boy 11/1, Made it fourth time lucky over hurdles in 2m Chepstow novice in November. Couldn't defy a tough-looking opening mark on handicap debut when fourteenth of 18 in a handicap hurdle at Ascot. Tackles longer trip today but needs to improve to overcome current handicap mark. Chepstow novice winner; disappointed on handicap debut but remains of interest.
8	8 |PU| (8) (17/2 +29%) Stratton Oakmont		8.5 17/2(+29%)																															(8) Stratton Oakmont 17/2, Course winner returned with a good third at Ffos Las in November. Disappointed at Haydock 6 weeks later but he's not the type to stay down for long. Placed on seasonal debut but pulled up since, and seems best suited by 3m nowadays.

15:50 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

Although thwarted in his hat-trick bid when third at Taunton, the 2m3f distance may have been just on the sharp side for BREAD AND BUTTER. A return to an extended 2m4f is sure to see Olly Murphy's veteran in a much better light and, racing off an unchanged mark, he's taken to regain the winning thread. Shared is another who should excel over this longer trip and is feared most, ahead of the selection's stablemate Bobby Socks.

BOBBY SOCKS showed he retains plenty of ability when finishing a promising third on the back of a 17-month absence and he's the most interesting runner here. Toonagh Warrior has run some creditable races over the winter and should be in the mix once again. Paul O'Brien has a tough job aboard the enigmatic Shared, but he's capable if on a going day.

Another chance is given to THE WINSLOW BOY, who flopped on his handicap debut but still has scope to progress from his novice win.

1	6 1st (6) (5/1 +17%) Edgewell		5 5/1(+17%)																															(6) Edgewell 5/1, Off the mark over fences with a cosy success in handicap at Downpatrick (23.7f) in October and back to form in this sphere when chasing home Jongleur D'etoiles last time (wore visor). Up 5 lb for finishing second given progressive nature of winner and can go well again if headgear has same impact. Ran big race in defeat behind Jongleur d'Etoiles last month; taken very seriously here.
2	9 2nd (9) (10/3 +26%) Star Vantage		3.333333 10/3(+26%)																															(9) Star Vantage 10/3, Remains a maiden after 17 runs but he shaped encouragingly when third of 16 in a handicap hurdle at Wetherby (24.1f, soft), in a race that is working out extremely well with 1st, 4th and 5th all having won since. Must enter calculations here. 0-14 over hurdles but ran well when third in big field at Wetherby (3m) over Christmas.
3	3 3rd (3) (5/2 0%) Jongleur D'etoiles		2.5 5/2(0%)																															(3) Jongleur D'etoiles 5/2, A typical improver from a yard who do so well with this type of horse. Arrives here on the back of a double having landed victories at Wincanton (beating Keable, a progressive sort) and Catterick, scoring by ½ length from Edgewell (25.3f). Up 6lb but should make a bold bid for the hat-trick here. Improving 6yo who bids to complete a hat-trick; could still be on a good mark.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 +64%) Good Bye		18 18/1(+64%)																															(5) Good Bye 18/1, Proved a model of consistency during 2022/23 campaign for this yard but has taken his time to warm up since returning from 17-month absence in June. Step in the right direction when sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f) 11 days ago but hard to be confident that he'll back that up. Didn't run badly at Wetherby 11 days ago but is seemingly on the downgrade.
5th	7 5th (7) (33/1 +0%) Just Four Fame		33 33/1(+0%)																															(7) Just Four Fame 33/1, Third in an Aintree bumper in May 2022 but hurdling efforts have been uninspiring in the main, faring no better in handicaps, first-time visor having little impact when well-beaten at Market Rasen (16.6f) last month. Back to 3m here and others have stronger claims. Unplaced al seven hurdling starts; significant improvement required.
6th	8 6th (8) (8/1 0%) De Vega's Warrior		8 8/1(0%)																															(8) De Vega's Warrior 8/1, A frustrating maiden on Flat. Promise in first-time cheekpieces when third of 11 (20.5f, Southwell) on handicap debut but let down by his hurdling when third of 7 in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (23.4f, good to soft, 12/1) 15 days ago. Cheekpieces back on in a bid to sharpen up his jumping. Third in first two handicap hurdles (2m4f/2m7f); needs to find extra here.
7th	10 7th (10) (28/1 -40%) Pooroldmackley		28 28/1(-40%)																															(10) Pooroldmackley 28/1, Failed to complete both starts in points and only poor form over hurdles, making no impact when sixth of 7 in a handicap hurdle at Ludlow (15.8f, soft, 33/1) 70 days ago. Opposable on first try at this trip, unless market offers any hope. Well beaten in first two handicaps (2m4f/2mf); tries new trip and sports cheekpieces here.
8th	1 8th (1) (5/1 +9%) Just Chasing May		5 5/1(+9%)																															(1) Just Chasing May 5/1, Winner at Uttoxeter in June and has continued in good nick, third of 8 in a handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f, good to soft) in November before solid second of 14 in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, heavy), having made the running. Should be competitive again. Placed all four starts since 2m4f win last May and likely to be on the premises again.
9th	2 9th (2) (9/1 +36%) Small Town Hero		9 9/1(+36%)																															(2) Small Town Hero 9/1, Point winner who has been brought along steadily in this sphere having shown some promise in qualifying runs. Makes handicap debut tackling 3m for the first time but could only be of interest if market speaks in his favour. One to note in the betting. Soundly beaten in three maiden hurdles (2m4f-2m6f) but may fare better in handicaps.
10th	4 10th (4) (10/1 +9%) Faded Fantasy		10 10/1(+9%)																															(4) Faded Fantasy 10/1, Course winner not won since June 2023, went close on first attempt over fences at Hereford (25f) in November he's looked a difficult ride on two occasions since, when tried in different headgear. Clearly has his own ideas about the game and not one to rely on with all headgear removed today. Went close in a chase in November but did not look very enthusiastic on next two outings.
11	11 |PU| (11) (11/1 +8%) Tellairsue		11 11/1(+8%)																															(11) Tellairsue 11/1, Benefitted from the step up in trip when landing 4-runner Fontwell handicap (25.8f) in April 2023. Returned from 20-month absence and a breathing operation when fair fourth of 12 in a handicap hurdle (50/1) at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) 45 days ago. Up in trip but needs to prove he can build on that. 3m2f winner in April 2023; returned from break with very encouraging 2m4f run in December.

16:20 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The hat-trick seeking JONGLEUR D'ETOILES supplemented his breakthrough victory at Wincanton when accounting for Edgewell at Catterick on New Year's Day. A 6lb higher mark is unlikely to be the ceiling of the six-year-old's ability and he rates as the one to beat. Edgewell may have to play second fiddle to the selection once more on only 1lb better terms, while the consistent Just Chasing May is likely to give another good account.

Neil Mulholland has been a master at taking low-grade handicappers on a winning sequence this season and that trend may continue with the progressive JONGLEUR D'ETOILES, who can overcome a 6 lb rise. Maiden Star Vantage finished third at Wetherby in a race that is working out particularly well, so he can run well and gain compensation at a later date. Edgewell, who chased home the selection last time out, should go well again if in the same form here.

Neil Mulholland's JONGLEUR D'ETOILES (nap) had to scrap hard to master Edgewell last month but can complete a hat-trick here.

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.
