1st (7)  (1.4/1 +38%)Bagheera Ginge |
1.4/1(+38%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bagheera Ginge 1.4/1, Built on debut promise when beaten only a neck by odds-on favourite in novice hurdle (7/2) at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) in July. Can go one better with the step up in trip to suit. | |||
2nd (4)  (2.5/1 +0%)Dreamweaver |
2.5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dreamweaver 2.5/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Stepped forward from hurdling debut but wasn't able to justify odds of 4/9 when second in novice at Worcester (16f, good to soft) in June. Could do better back up in trip. | |||
3rd (6)  (2/1 +11%)Victory Club |
2/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Victory Club 2/1, Point winner who made a successful Rules debut in a Southwell bumper in May. Failed to land the odds but ran to similar level under a penalty when second at Market Rasen next time. Respected on hurdles bow, | |||
4th (11)  (33/1 -50%)Blitz Spirit |
33/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Blitz Spirit 33/1, Fair form on the Flat in France, though shaped as if amiss after 12 months off on stable debut in June. Little encouragement when well beaten on her first start over hurdles the following month. | |||
5th (5)  (125/1 -89%)Thistle Do |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Thistle Do 125/1, Fell on his only start in points. Hooded for his Rules debut, he completed but finished last of 6 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good) 40 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere. | |||
6th (3)  (20/1 +20%)Codey Jones |
20/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Codey Jones 20/1, Unplaced in points and ran to modest level in a Worcester maiden on hurdling debut, though did lose a shoe. However, went backwards from that effort when down the field at Market Rasen 17 days later. | |||
7th (2)  (16/1 +11%)Blue Shark |
16/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Blue Shark 16/1, Down the field in bumpers and has fared little better over hurdles, again finishing well held when fourth of 10 in novice at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) a month ago. | |||
8th (1)  (100/1 -257%)Beannaigh Do |
100/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Beannaigh Do 100/1, Well held in a 3m point and was unsuited by emphasis on speed when last of 5 in bumper at this course a month ago. Needs a big step forward upped in trip for hurdles debut. | |||
9th (8)  (150/1 -200%)Great Ridley |
150/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Great Ridley 150/1, Modest maiden on Flat for Grant Tuer, down the field in handicaps all 3 starts this year. Makes little appeal having his first outing over hurdles. |

1st (3)  (2/1 +33%)Punxsutawney Phil |
2/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Punxsutawney Phil 2/1, Bumper/maiden hurdle winner who bumped into a progressive sort when runner-up on chase bow here (19.5f) in July.

2nd (4)  (1.75/1 +36%)Cremant |
1.75/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Cremant 1.75/1, Won an Aintree handicap hurdle (20f) in June and he's run with credit both starts since returning to chasing, one paced latter stages when runner-up over 19.5f here in July. Eased further 1 lb and he should continue in form. | |||
3rd (2)  (7/1 +7%)London Eye |
7/1(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) London Eye 7/1, Largely consistent over hurdles following a Worcester maiden victory last summer and whilst below his best when fourth on chase debut back at that venue last month, he did jump okay. May come on for that now fitted with blinkers. | |||
|PU| (1)  (3/1 -117%)Salley Gardens |
3/1(-117%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Salley Gardens 3/1, Building up a good strike rate, jumping soundly when off the mark at first attempt in this sphere at Southwell (20.4f) in June. Found only one too good over extended 22f here last month and he looks sure to go well again. |

1.62/1(+81%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Flintstone 1.62/1, Fair maiden on the Flat for Richard Hannon and ought to be up to making an impact at this sort of level over hurdles. | |||

0.67/1(+83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mutara 0.67/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Struck at the second time of asking over hurdles in C&D juvenile 25 days ago. First-time blinkers replace the cheekpieces he wore last time. | |||

12/1(+64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Intriguing Lady 12/1, Modest maiden for Charlie & Mark Johnston. Hasn't achieved much in 3 outings over hurdles for new yard, finishing a distant third to the reopposing Mucuna last time. | |||

25/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ickytoo 25/1, Poor form on the Flat so she'll need to improve for a switch to hurdles to play a part. |

2.75/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Blaze A Trail 2.75/1, Fair winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland and in a hood he bounced back with an easy victory over C&D last month. Can follow up. | |||

6/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Smith's Bay 6/1, Has reverted to chasing this season and took a step back in right direction when second at this C&D in June. Not in the same form here next time, but capable of getting involved off his current mark. | |||
3rd (6)  (7/1 +13%)Time To Bite |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Time To Bite 7/1, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs. Pulled up in novice chase at Tipperary (19.5f) last month. Has enough to prove on first run for yard after leaving L. J. Archdeacon. | |||
4th (1)  (16/1 -33%)Debden Bank |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Debden Bank 16/1, 3-time chase winner last season and, after a wind op, ran respectably over hurdles when third at Southwell in June. Well below form next time, so needs to bounce back returned to chasing in 1st-time tongue tie. | |||

4.5/1(+47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Special Buddy 4.5/1, Placed on first 4 starts last season, but ended the campaign on a low note when well held at Worcester. Has won twice in points since last seen under Rules 13 months ago. Cheekpieces back on. | |||

66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Severus Alexander 66/1, Has shown little on the Flat this year and, after 4 months off, fared no better when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Southwell in June. Best watched on only his second start over fences. | |||
|PU| (2)  (4.5/1 -35%)Steady The Ship |
4.5/1(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Steady The Ship 4.5/1, Won his first 2 starts over fences at Southwell (20.4f) in April/May and, following a blip at Huntingdon, has run creditably on his last 2 outings. Can give another good account. |

1st (4)  (1.2/1 +13%)Isthebaropen |
1.2/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Isthebaropen 1.2/1, Three-time winner last season, latest at Aintree in June. Good second of 5 in handicap at Uttoxeter (19.9f) 31 days ago so needs considering. | |||
2nd (2)  (10/1 -54%)Forecast |
10/1(-54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Forecast 10/1, Off 7 months and first run since leaving Dr Richard Newland when second of 3 in 26f handicap hurdle at Newton Abbot 150 days ago. This return to shorter will suit and he's weighted to go well after another break. | |||
3rd (3)  (3.5/1 -17%)Taste The Fear |
3.5/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Taste The Fear 3.5/1, Off 7 months since posting a creditable sixth in first-time cheekpieces at Taunton (23.9f). Needs to hit the ground running on his return. | |||

16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) The Garrison 16/1, Hasn't shown his form in a long time and tough task from 10 lb out of the handicap. Tongue strap applied. | |||
2nd (6)  (3/1 +14%)Getaman |
3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Getaman 3/1, Improved further when opening his account in 2m Perth handicap chase last month, jumping boldly in front. 5 lb rise fair enough and should make his presence felt. | |||
3rd (4)  (1.62/1 +1%)White Turf |
1.62/1(+1%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) White Turf 1.62/1, Winless following 15 attempts over hurdles, but took just two attempts to open her account in this sphere, storming clear in a nine-runner handicap at Bangor (17.4f, good) last week. Big player under a penalty with the prospect of better to come. | |||
4th (2)  (2.75/1 +0%)Trumps Benefit |
2.75/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Trumps Benefit 2.75/1, Finally took advantage of his much-reduced mark over C&D last month, suited by the drop back in trip. Kicked on a little too early when third at Market Rasen (17.2f, good to firm) recently and good chance off the same mark back here. | |||
5th (3)  (25/1 +0%)Gambie Tiep |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Gambie Tiep 25/1, French bumper winner who has shown some promise for his current yard, but latest effort (over hurdles) lacked spark and needs to raise his game on this debut for new yard. | |||
6th (1)  (11/1 -57%)Tikkinthebox |
11/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Tikkinthebox 11/1, Consistent last summer, but form has completely tailed off in recent months and he needs to bounce back in a major way. | |||
7th (5)  (50/1 -52%)King Cnut |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) King Cnut 50/1, C&D winner for Chris Gordon in May 2019, but has shown nothing in four starts since returning from a lengthy absence in November. |

2nd (6)  (14/1 +30%)Borderline |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Borderline 14/1, Sans Frontieres gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Classic Escape. Faces tough task on his racecourse bow. | |||

8/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Zuul 8/1, Thrice-raced maiden in bumpers. 33/1, fared bit better than previously when fourth of 9 at Huntingdon in May. Needs to find further improvement. | |||

1.88/1(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Soldat Forte 1.88/1, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to bumper/useful hurdle winner Wonderwall and fairly useful hurdler Ballyneety. Unplaced completed starts in Irish points. Has had wind op ahead of bumper debut. | |||
5th (8)  (12/1 +0%)Earcomessue |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Earcomessue 12/1, Showed more than she had in points when third of 9 in bumper at this C&D on Rules debut 55 days ago. Can go well again back here, | |||
6th (4)  (14/1 -27%)Rhodia |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Rhodia 14/1, Promising debut when runner-up in Down Royal bumper in October, but went backwards from that effort at the same course 13 weeks later. Off 6 months ahead of first run for yard after leaving S. Wilson. | |||
7th (3)  (40/1 -82%)Milfolhas Has |
40/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Milfolhas Has 40/1, Didn't show much in points back in spring 2021 and offered little on his first outing under Rules when sixth of 8 in bumper (5/1) at Worcester ago. Much more required but it remains early days. | |||
8th (2)  (10/1 -43%)Horse Power |
10/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Horse Power 10/1, Attracted support on debut but was never going well from halfway when eighth of 9 in bumper at Worcester 49 days ago. Clearly thought capable of better. |

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.
