11	11 (11) (12/1 +40%) We Got Your Back		12 12/1(+40%)																															(11) We Got Your Back 12/1, Winless over hurdles and hasn't taken to chasing. Still a maiden and has enough to prove over this new trip.
1	2 1st (2) (8/1 +20%) Aviewtosea		8 8/1(+20%)																															(2) Aviewtosea 8/1, Has dropped a long way in the weights since winning back-to-back small-field handicap chases in 2022, but the majority of his efforts since have lacked spark and was well held at Bangor 16 days ago. Inconsistent in the last 12 months but has become attractively handicapped.
2	4 2nd (4) (20/1 -67%) Ingennio		20 20/1(-67%)																															(4) Ingennio 20/1, Hacked up in a selling handicap at Fakenham in April and followed up there in decisive fashion 11 days later. Left Richard Hobson and just respectable efforts both starts for this yard. Scored twice at Fakenham in April for previous yard; not in the same form since.
3	8 3rd (8) (15/2 -88%) Unwanted Attention		7.5 15/2(-88%)																															(8) Unwanted Attention 15/2, Off the mark over fences in handicap chase (10/3) at Market Rasen (21.4f, good to firm) and backed that up with good second at Cartmel. Should go well again. In great form last month, winning at Market Rasen then clear second at Cartmel; player.
4	1 4th (1) (6/1 -118%) Gentle Connections		6 6/1(-118%)																															(1) Gentle Connections 6/1, Four-time winner over hurdles in first half of 2022. Struggled after before back-to-form second in handicap chase at Bangor on belated return 5 weeks ago, finishing with running left. Of interest. Shaped very well at Bangor on reappearance; remains well treated on best hurdles form.
5th	10 5th (10) (18/1 -13%) Play By The Rules		18 18/1(-13%)																															(10) Play By The Rules 18/1, Failed to fire over hurdles last term and has fared no better switched to chasing. Hinted at a revival in Hexham contest last time; hurdles win came off 10lb higher.
6th	5 6th (5) (25/1 -733%) Coconut Twist		25 25/1(-733%)																															(5) Coconut Twist 25/1, Runner-up all 5 starts over hurdles last season and made a winning start over fences for new yard at Newton Abbot in May, beating 2 subsequent winners. Open to improvement and high on shortlist. Successful in point/chase the last twice; open to further progress; one for the shortlist.
7th	6 7th (6) (100/1 -1011%) Hobie		100 100/1(-1011%)																															(6) Hobie 100/1, Irish point winner who landed a 2m maiden hurdle at Worcester 14 months ago. Mixed record over fences, well held at Worcester 6 weeks ago. Headgear on. Runner-up twice this spring; well beaten last time; now goes in headgear.
9	9 |PU| (9) (50/1 -400%) Hollington		50 50/1(-400%)																															(9) Hollington 50/1, Dual winner in points who got back on track reverted to fences when second at Market Rasen last month, albeit no match for winner. Showed promise at Market Rasen (second chase attempt) last month; open to improvement.
7	7 |PU| (7) (80/1 -100%) Chabadatika		80 80/1(-100%)																															(7) Chabadatika 80/1, Fair form over hurdles in France but hasn't offered much in 5 starts for her current yard, taking little interest on chase bow latest. Ex-French mare who holds weak claims on her British form.
3	3 |PU| (3) (100/1 -1011%) Dusky Days		100 100/1(-1011%)																															(3) Dusky Days 100/1, Made a winning return in 17f handicap here in May but highlighted his inconsistency when running poorly there since. Headgear now applied. Contrasting performances over 2m1f here this season; bred to stay this new trip.
12	12 |PU| (12) (100/1 -150%) Buto		100 100/1(-150%)																															(12) Buto 100/1, Very limited nowadays. 10 lb out of handicap. Only 1-25 over hurdles; never figured switched to fences last time.
13	13 |PU| (13) (150/1 -50%) Stunsail		150 150/1(-50%)																															(13) Stunsail 150/1, No solid form. Makes chase debut. First run for yard after leaving Claire Dyson. 20 lb out of the handicap. Poor claims on form and has been absent since January 2022.

14:30 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

After a comfortable success over 2m5f at Newton Abbot last time, Coconut Twist looks set to offer another bold bid, but he may be susceptible to some better treated rivals after being hit with an 8lb rise. Therefore, the nod goes to UNWANTED ATTENTION, who was a clear second over 2m5f at Cartmel last time and a 3lb rise could prove to be lenient. Gentle Connections looked a useful prospect last time and is another to be taken seriously.

UNWANTED ATTENTION is very much getting the hang of things over fences now, clear of the rest when second at Cartmel, and can quickly resume winning ways. Gentle Connections was back on song after an absence when second at Bangor and is the obvious threat along with Coconut Twist, who made a winning start over fences in good style for new connections at Newton Abbot.

Skelton runner GENTLE CONNECTIONS (nap) looks poised to open her chase account. Coconut Twist is second choice.

3	3 (3) (10/1 +0%) Kalkaroo		10 10/1(+0%)																															(3) Kalkaroo 10/1, Sent off at 100/1 when well held only start on Flat for Paul Webber last summer but opening third over hurdles behind Play Pretend wasn't devoid of promise, sticking to his task. 18-1 third at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) but about 11l behind the winner Play Pretend.
1	1 (1) (15/8 +16%) Play Pretend		1.875 15/8(+16%)																															(1) Play Pretend 15/8, Related to a couple of hurdle winners and overcame inexperience to do likewise himself on debut at Market Rasen last month, well on top by the line. Penalty to defy here but he's open to plenty of progress. Debut when he won 12-runner juvenile hurdle at Market Rasen (2m1f, good) one month ago.
1	2 1st (2) (8/1 +33%) Battle Of Omdurman		8 8/1(+33%)																															(2) Battle Of Omdurman 8/1, Closely related to modest hurdler Mind Hunter (17f winner, by Gleneagles). Fair maiden on Flat (stays 11.5f), respectable third last time. Has left Ollie Sangster but has the raw ability to be a factor at this level if taking to hurdling. Fair form with best two results in six Flat races for Ollie Sangster; no fitness worries.
2	5 2nd (5) (9/2 +18%) Rogue King		4.5 9/2(+18%)																															(5) Rogue King 9/2, Fair on Flat (stays 1½m), improved when winning at Wolverhampton last time. Visor kept on now hurdling for up-and-coming yard. Classy Flat pedigree; fair form in two of his eight Flat races, off the mark on latest.
3	7 3rd (7) (100/1 -355%) Masonbrook Meadow		100 100/1(-355%)																															(7) Masonbrook Meadow 100/1, Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1¼m), seemed unsuited by undulations at Chepstow last time. Bounce back needed now hurdling. Fair at her best on Flat and she'd be a player if that form is transferred to hurdles.
4	8 4th (8) (66/1 -560%) Scottie's Sister		66 66/1(-560%)																															(8) Scottie's Sister 66/1, Poor form in 3 outings over 7f on the Flat last autumn. Well behind Play Pretend on hurdles debut at Market Rasen but put that experience to good use when third at Newton Abbot. Still has work to do with that rival and Mill Street. Third from the front at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good) albeit just over 5l behind Mill Street.
5th	4 5th (4) (100/1 -5614%) Mill Street		100 100/1(-5614%)																															(4) Mill Street 100/1, Made frame twice from 4 starts in US Flat maidens and showed plenty to work on sent hurdling when second of 11 at Newton Abbot 3 weeks ago. Major player. Second when favourite for British/hurdling debut at Newton Abbot (2m1f, good).
6	6 |PU| (6) (100/1 -809%) Happy Place		100 100/1(-809%)																															(6) Happy Place 100/1, Reached the frame in Flat maidens at up to 1m for Harry Eustace last autumn and joined a leading stable ahead of switch to hurdles bur she was most disappointing at Market Rasen in race won by Play Pretend. 2nd in a 2yo maiden; second favourite, remote in Play Pretend's race at Market Rasen.

15:00 Stratford Conditions Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

MILL STREET finished over five lengths clear of the third when filling the runner-up spot on his hurdling debut at Newton Abbot last month and he could improve plenty for that experience. Play Pretend beat Kalkaroo (third) by over 11 lengths at Market Rasen and he can confirm that form, despite carrying a 7lb penalty, while Scottie's Sister completes the shortlist.

Having displayed ability when owned by Godolphin in the US, MILL STREET offered plenty to work on over hurdles when second at Newton Abbot 3 weeks ago and the 7 lb he receives from easy Market Rasen winner Play Pretend may prove decisive. Battle of Omdurman's Flat form suggests he can be a factor if taking to this new discipline.

Play Pretend showed his inexperience at Market Rasen but still won by 11l. Newton Abbot runner-up MILL STREET is narrowly preferred.

13	13 (13) (100/1 -100%) Ocean Frontier		100 100/1(-100%)																															(13) Ocean Frontier 100/1, Limited impact in bumpers. Looks very modest judged on her bumper form.
1	1 (1) (100/1 +0%) Connolly		100 100/1(+0%)																															(1) Connolly 100/1, Minor promise only in 4 starts for Emma Lavelle, most recently on hurdles debut in March. Poor form for Emma Lavelle; sold for 2,600gns since last run.
1	7 1st (7) (7/2 -75%) Don Rafael		3.5 7/2(-75%)																															(7) Don Rafael 7/2, Minor promise in a trio of bumpers and progressed from hurdles debut when second of 9 at Uttoxeter a month. Winner that day improved since so he has to enter the reckoning. Has shaped well in both attempts over hurdles, runner-up at Uttoxeter latest; respected.
2	6 2nd (6) (33/1 -136%) Timeforarum		33 33/1(-136%)																															(6) Timeforarum 33/1, Fair form on first of three outings in bumpers. Looked a work in progress in maiden hurdles but found no improvement switched to handicaps. Modest fourth in Bangor handicap last time; something to find.
3	10 3rd (10) (16/1 -100%) Belle Montrose		16 16/1(-100%)																															(10) Belle Montrose 16/1, £28,000 buy after finishing runner-up on her sole start in Irish points. Progressive form in bumpers, albeit at a fairly modest level and though sent off 66/1 for hurdles bow at Newton Abbot, she again showed ability. Encouraging effort at Newton Abbot (hurdles debut) last month; possibilities.
4	5 4th (5) (66/1 -3949%) R S Ambush		66 66/1(-3949%)																															(5) R S Ambush 66/1, Fair maiden hurdler who showed he can be very competitive in handicaps when second over 19f at Carlisle (soft) in December. Too free back at that venue in February but in keeping with many from his yard, was right back on his game when runner-up at Hexham. Right in the mix fitted with cheekpieces. Close second at Hexham last month; leading chance provided he takes to headgear.
5th	12 5th (12) (100/1 -1011%) Flighttothestars		100 100/1(-1011%)																															(12) Flighttothestars 100/1, Minor promise at best in bumpers. Well held on hurdles debut here but did show more when third returned to this venue last month. Finished third at big odds here last time; place possibilities granted a repeat.
6th	3 6th (3) (100/1 +0%) Greenways		100 100/1(+0%)																															(3) Greenways 100/1, Showed some promise in bumpers and shaped in kind tried hurdling when tenth of 17 in a maiden at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) in January. Well held at Newton Abbot 11 days later and since left Ali Stronge. Needs big improvement; stable debut.
7th	11 7th (11) (100/1 +0%) Runaway Bride		100 100/1(+0%)																															(11) Runaway Bride 100/1, Showed a bit in a bumper for Mrs Grainne O'Connor at Tipperary in May. Changed hands for £6,000 after and failed to build on that sent hurdling here a month ago. Ex-Irish mare who showed little here (hurdles/stable debut) last month.
8th	2 8th (2) (100/1 -2122%) Electric Eddy		100 100/1(-2122%)																															(2) Electric Eddy 100/1, Signs of ability for Prunella Dobbs in Ireland and quietly progressive in handicaps for this yard, second of 10 at Worcester a fortnight ago. Likely to give it a good shot back in maiden company. Placed in good-ground handicaps the last twice; one of the main contenders.
9th	9 9th (9) (100/1 -300%) Golden Moonshake		100 100/1(-300%)																															(9) Golden Moonshake 100/1, First worthwhile form when third of 9 at Stratford last month but chance he was flattered in a slowly-run race. Faded into modest third over 2m2f here last month; lot to find on bare figures.
14	14 |U| (14) (400/1 -700%) Porridge		400 400/1(-700%)																															(14) Porridge 400/1, Casamento filly. Dam unraced, out of useful hurdler/fair chase winner (stayed 2¾m) Bold Fire. Fourth on sole outing in points and joined a good yard, but bumper efforts at Southwell hardly brimming with promise. Hurdles debut for new yard. Signs of ability in bumpers; left Fergal O'Brien for £2,500 since last run.
8	8 |PU| (8) (100/1 -614%) El Battle Bus		100 100/1(-614%)																															(8) El Battle Bus 100/1, Australia gelding. Dam, lightly-raced maiden on Flat, closely related to fairly useful hurdler (2m winner) Royal Reserve. Hooded but just hinted at ability when mid-field in a bumper at Haydock on debut in May. Never-dangerous sixth in Haydock bumper; in good hands and may do better.
4	4 |PU| (4) (250/1 -150%) Helpful		250 250/1(-150%)																															(4) Helpful 250/1, Well held in bumpers 4 months apart for different yards. Tongue strap on now hurdling. Beaten long way in two bumpers last year.

15:30 Stratford Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

R S AMBUSH sets the standard with a rating of 105 after finishing second over 2m4f at Hexham on his latest outing and this drop in trip shouldn't pose him many problems. The five-year-old sports first-time cheekpieces, which could eke out the improvement required to score. Electric Eddy produced the best effort of his career so far to hit the crossbar at Worcester earlier in the month and he has to be respected back in maiden company, while Don Rafael is next best.

DON RAFAEL stuck to his task really well when runner-up at Uttoxeter a month ago, and with the winner that day showing improved form since, that performance looks pretty solid in the contest of this. He's awarded the vote at the main expense of R S Ambush and Electric Eddy.

With further progress a clear possibility, DON RAFAEL gets the verdict. R S Ambush is the chief threat on form.

1	8 1st (8) (11/2 -144%) Six And Out		5.5 11/2(-144%)																															(8) Six And Out 11/2, Fair in bumpers and won a novice over C&D in June. Hampered and unseated early but remains with potential, so merits respect on handicap debut. Won a novice over C&D last month and must be of interest on his handicap debut..
2	2 2nd (2) (2/1 +20%) Finest View		2 2/1(+20%)																															(2) Finest View 2/1, Capitalised on a reduced mark on her second start back with Alan King at this course (16.3f, good to soft) in April. Runner-up with good efforts on both subsequent starts and she's expected to go well again. Took advantage of a plummeting mark to win here in April; sound claims..
3	4 3rd (4) (100/1 -614%) Finisk River		100 100/1(-614%)																															(4) Finisk River 100/1, Scored 4 times around 2½m in 2022. Back to form from reduced mark when second of 7 at Bangor last September but disappointing since. A modest fourth at Cartmel in May, he needs more help from the handicapper..
4	3 4th (3) (100/1 -2122%) Songo		100 100/1(-2122%)																															(3) Songo 100/1, Fairly useful Flat performer who won a pair of novice hurdles over C&D under Harry Cobden last summer. Well held both subsequent outings for Milton Harris but excellent start for new yard when runner-up over 18.5f at Newton Abbot in May. Second on his stable debut at Newton Abbot in May; holds claims..
5th	1 5th (1) (100/1 -733%) Everyonesgame		100 100/1(-733%)																															(1) Everyonesgame 100/1, Won 3 times for Charlie Longsdon in 2023, including a Class 2 Worcester handicap last June. Well held both subsequent starts and not enough encouragement on debut for this yard at Market Rasen last month. Shaped as if needing the run when eighth off 11 at Market Rasen last month..
6th	5 6th (5) (80/1 -1678%) Doctor Parnassus		80 80/1(-1678%)																															(5) Doctor Parnassus 80/1, 6/1, respectable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (15.6f, heavy) 175 days ago, not knocked about. Has now rejoined his former trainer from much-reduced mark and is worth a chance to make a winning return if the market speaks in his favour. Has returned to his former yard after a spell in Ireland; any market move should be noted..
7th	7 7th (7) (100/1 -400%) Jeepydoff Meel		100 100/1(-400%)																															(7) Jeepydoff Meel 100/1, Got off the mark at Market Rasen (18.5f) last June and also runner-up in novices on 3 other occasions in the first half of last season. Hasn't fired since, including on reappeaerance, so something to prove. Tailed off on his return to action at Cartmel last month; others preferred..
6	6 |PU| (6) (66/1 -371%) Rakhine State		66 66/1(-371%)																															(6) Rakhine State 66/1, Got off the mark over fences here a year ago. Pulled up when last seen in October and likely to need this back over hurdles. Returns from 266-day layoff and younger rivals look more interesting..

16:00 Stratford Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

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

FINEST VIEW was beaten three lengths into second in this grade over 2m1f at Newton Abbot earlier in the month and she goes off an unchanged mark here. Alan King's mare looks like a solid option in this contest, with her main threat possibly being Songo. The eight-year-old made a pleasing return to action when finishing second last time and he should be competitive off 1lb lower, while Doctor Parnassus warrants a market check.

DOCTOR PARNASSUS is significantly lower in the weights than the last time he was in the care of Dan Skelton and, having shaped a bit better than the result when last seen five months ago, he's worth a chance to capitalise if strong in the betting. Handicap-debutant Six And Out is another one to consider.

The one with solid credentials is Finest View but the unexposed SIX AND OUT on his handicap debut may have his measure.

5	5 (5) (11/4 +45%) Absolutely Fine		2.75 11/4(+45%)																															(5) Absolutely Fine 11/4, Hasn't shown much yet but he's bred to do much better and represents a top stable, so better is expected now upped markedly in trip. Worth siding with if strong in the betting. Pretty much tailed off in his bumper and three hurdle races; handicap debut after wind op.
1	11 1st (11) (5/2 -25%) Hammer Dan		2.5 5/2(-25%)																															(11) Hammer Dan 5/2, Left previous efforts well behind when landing a Newton Abbot handicap with something to spare a month ago. Still on a basement with the scope for better still, so one to consider. Won at Newton Abbot (3m2f, good) one month ago and could now have more to offer.
2	10 2nd (10) (13/2 +19%) No More No		6.5 13/2(+19%)																															(10) No More No 13/2, Left previous form well behind when making a winning handicap debut in a first-time visor from 12 lb out of the weights over C&D in May. Poor effort at Fontwell next time but still relatively unexposed. C&D win in May despite being 12lb out of the weights; 3m2f did not work out next time.
3	9 3rd (9) (28/1 -75%) Eric Carmen		28 28/1(-75%)																															(9) Eric Carmen 28/1, Finally capitalised on a mark that had fallen 21 lb since joining the yard when scoring in the mud at Southwell i May but wasn't in the same form next time and others make more appeal. Having won at Southwell (2m4f) three starts back, he's achieved more than many of these.
4	2 4th (2) (100/1 -203%) Jassur Des Brosses		100 100/1(-203%)																															(2) Jassur Des Brosses 100/1, 66/1, first run since leaving Ms Margaret Mullins when eighth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere. 66-1, weakened right out of it in handicap at Market Rasen (2m5f, good) on debut for yard.
5th	4 5th (4) (100/1 -2400%) No More Bolero		100 100/1(-2400%)																															(4) No More Bolero 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot (18.5f, good, 25/1) 19 days ago, running on. Remains with plenty of scope based on his useful Flat form, so looks a big player. Second at Newton Abbot (2m2f, good) with cheekpieces enlisted; this trip is interesting.
6th	7 6th (7) (100/1 -809%) My Girl Katie		100 100/1(-809%)																															(7) My Girl Katie 100/1, Poor maiden hurdler who got back on track when fourth in a novice at Bangor last time. Others look better treated, however. 0-15 as hurdler (also 0-3 over fences under rules) and well held last two starts.
7th	6 7th (6) (100/1 -900%) Larkfield Lusive		100 100/1(-900%)																															(6) Larkfield Lusive 100/1, Modest maiden who wasn't disgraced on first 2 starts for present connections but form has dipped since. Visor might perk him up. Maiden; below form over about 3m recently and the cheekpieces are now replaced by a visor.
8th	1 8th (1) (80/1 -967%) Prairie Diamond		80 80/1(-967%)																															(1) Prairie Diamond 80/1, Debut winner of Hereford bumper last February and has offered encouragement at times over hurdles, third in a handicap at Warwick on latest outing. May do better with a hood on after a break. Latest was his closest finish over hurdles, albeit 10l behind the second; hooded this time.
9th	3 9th (3) (100/1 -614%) Tique		100 100/1(-614%)																															(3) Tique 100/1, Bumper winner at the fourth attempt here in May 2023 but has shown just modest form at best so far over hurdles. Needs headgear to bring about some improvement. Stamina is a doubt but at least this is her handicap debut, with headgear first time.
10th	8 10th (8) (100/1 -300%) Jaunty Belle		100 100/1(-300%)																															(8) Jaunty Belle 100/1, Still a maiden and arrives on the back of a tame display when pulled up at Newton Abbot last time. Hard to make a case for. One or both of the new tongue-tie and cheekpieces needs to give her a big boost.

16:30 Stratford Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

HAMMER DAN appeared revitalised by a 133-day layoff when opening his account at Newton Abbot in June. A 4lb rise for that victory looks on the lenient side for David Pipe's charge and a brace could be on the cards. The biggest threat may emerge from No More Bolero, who arrives on the back of his best effort over hurdles to date, while sustained market support for handicap-debutant Absolutely Fine would be interesting.

ABSOLUTELY FINE doesn't really have much form to date but this marked increase in trip is likely to suit on handicap debut and he's a potential big improver for a shrewd stable. No More Bolero is an obvious danger and Hammer Dan can feature if he improves again.

Few make any appeal. NO MORE BOLERO gets the vote ahead of Hammer Dan and No More No.

3	3 (3) (13/2 -44%) Hugueneau		6.5 13/2(-44%)																															(3) Hugueneau 13/2, Winner in hurdle at Huntingdon in May. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle (8/1) at Worcester (23f, good to firm) 13 days ago. Likely to go well again. Bled three starts back but firmly in the argument judged on both since.
10	10 (10) (14/1 -56%) Etoile Brillante		14 14/1(-56%)																															(10) Etoile Brillante 14/1, First run since leaving Alexandra Dunn when 16/1, career best when winning 6-runner handicap hurdle at Warwick in May. Said to have a breathing problem when only sixth at Warwick a month ago so could get back on track. Won at Warwick (2m5f, good) first start for this trainer; made a respiratory noise latest.
1	9 1st (9) (3/1 +0%) Inspector Lynley		3 3/1(+0%)																															(9) Inspector Lynley 3/1, Maiden who arrives on the back of a couple of solid performances, placed again when third at Worcester recently. Should be on the premises once more. 0-11 over hurdles but pretty consistent in handicaps and bang there on last two outings.
2	7 2nd (7) (15/2 -50%) Joker Du Chenet		7.5 15/2(-50%)																															(7) Joker Du Chenet 15/2, Respectable efforts at best without success for Stuart Crawford. Low-key start for yard but more encouragement on last two starts and tongue strap/cheekpieces go back on. Not ruled out. Fourth under 7lb claimer in good-ground handicaps over 3m/2m4f on last three starts.
3	1 3rd (1) (12/1 +0%) Borderline		12 12/1(+0%)																															(1) Borderline 12/1, Modest form over hurdles for Martin Keighley and well held with a tongue tie added on his 2½m course debut for new yard last month. Unseated at Worcester next time (best excused) and not one to write off. Peak form gives him a chance but others are more persuasive.
4	5 4th (5) (7/2 +71%) Arthalot		3.5 7/2(+71%)																															(5) Arthalot 7/2, Fair on the Flat but has yet to make a significant impact over hurdles. Has joined a shrewd yard now, though, and market support would likely be telling after a break. Has been out of form but new trainer is among the winners, so worth a market check.
5th	8 5th (8) (15/2 +46%) Fixed Wing		7.5 15/2(+46%)																															(8) Fixed Wing 15/2, No better than mid-field in a pair of bumpers and yet to make a serious impact over hurdles. Others are more appealing. Encouragement on penultimate start and not discredited latest but others look more solid.
6th	2 6th (2) (9/2 -50%) Mountain Bay		4.5 9/2(-50%)																															(2) Mountain Bay 9/2, Well held in bumpers but getting the hang of things as a hurdler, stepping forward again when second at Fakenham last time. Cheekpieces can eke a bit more out and he makes most appeal. Ten-race maiden; much more competitive on last two starts (3m latest); cheekpieces now.
7th	11 7th (11) (33/1 -32%) Nippin N Poppin		33 33/1(-32%)																															(11) Nippin N Poppin 33/1, Well held in bumper/completed starts over hurdles. Upped markedly in trip for handicap debut but hard to fancy with much confidence. Has shown little but makes handicap debut and is bred far more for this sort of trip.
4	4 |PU| (4) (25/1 -56%) Deadlock		25 25/1(-56%)																															(4) Deadlock 25/1, Fair form on the Flat and he ran creditably when fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good) in March. Hasn't been on his game in either sphere since, though. Tailed off on last two outings (Flat latest) and now sports headgear first time.
6	6 |PU| (6) (28/1 +30%) Swearer		28 28/1(+30%)																															(6) Swearer 28/1, Winning pointer but little to shout about under Rules so far, only fifth to Etoile Brillante at Warwick last time. Unlikely to seriously feature. Has had five races over hurdles, showing a glimmer on first and latest occasions.

17:00 Stratford Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

MOUNTAIN BAY lost little in defeat when finding only a progressive rival too strong at Fakenham last month and a 2lb nudge up in the ratings looks workable. Seamus Mullins' gelding is taken to shed his maiden tag at the ninth time of asking over hurdles, at the main expense of Inspector Lynley. The seven-year-old returns to the scene of his runner-up effort in May and another good account looks assured. Joker Du Chenet and Hugueneau also enter calculations.

MOUNTAIN BAY is going the right way and the first-time cheekpieces might generate a bit more progress, so he takes preference over the in-form Hugueneau. Inspector Lynley is also in good order and expected to be on the premises again.

Far more reliable than most of these and likely to be suited by this step back up in trip, INSPECTOR LYNLEY may finally break his duck.

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.
