ELHAM VALLEY finished stone last on his latest outing at Newton Abbot, but that was in class 3 company so this represents a big cut back in grade. The six-year-old was dropped 2lb for that effort and he could have too much for these. Boundsy Boy has hit the crossbar the last twice and he is likely to be bang there once more, while Peaceful Sunday is an interesting contender on his return to this sphere.

BOUNDSY BOY was beaten only by one that had eased in the weights over C&D back in June and is the percentage call to go one better from the same mark. Elham Valley needs to cast aside a couple of disappointing efforts but could bounce back with his sights very much lowered here.

The most persuasive option in this modest opener is BOUNDSY BOY, who extended his run of good form when second over C&D last time out.

ALL THE GLORY sets the standard with a rating of 121 after she recorded a Hexham/Market Rasen double. Jonjo O'Neill's mare scored by over five lengths in the latest of those victories and she could prove very hard to beat again. Donnie Azoff looks the one to follow her home after his second at Newton Abbot, and the step back down in distance shouldn't be a problem. Cellar Club looks booked for third.

It would be very disappointing if the improving ALL THE GLORY couldn't complete the hat-trick in this company. Donnie Azoff can follow her home.

It's very hard to oppose ALL THE GLORY, who took her form to a new level when winning comfortably at Market Rasen three weeks ago.

GUINNESS AFFAIR is unbeaten in his last three, with the latest of his successes coming at Market Rasen when accounting for his nearest rival by 16 lengths. The Jamie Snowden-trained seven-year-old is asked to compete off an 8lb higher mark, which is unlikely to stop him from going in again. Glory And Honour made his first start for the Sam England yard a victorious one at Cartmel and he should go well off 5lb higher. Aliomaana makes more appeal than top-weight Impulsive One.

GUINNESS AFFAIR hasn't looked back since sent chasing so gets a confident nod in his bid to complete a four-timer. Glory And Honour is feared most having quickly got off the mark for Sam England at Cartmel.

Sam England's GLORY AND HONOUR cruised into contention before readily asserting on his stable debut, and could still be well treated.

CLEARANCE's willing attitude helped him complete a double at Newton Abbot, and the nine-year-old is fancied to defy another 3lb rise in the ratings to continue his fine run of form. Bahtiyar didn't find as much as expected when runner-up over C&D on stable debut, but he can't be taken lightly. The juvenile Max Of Stars has taken really well to hurdles and also enters calculations, despite being 5lb higher than when second at Bangor.

MAX OF STARS couldn't quite capitalise on her handy 3-y-o allowance at Bangor recently but that was still a creditable effort and she could take some pegging back round here now reunited with Brian Hughes. Bahtiyar is a much-respected main danger on the back of an encouraging debut effort for this yard following a break here 16 days ago, while the hat-trick seeking Clearance also merits respect.

Another chance is given to BAHTIYAR, who found one just too strong here on his recent stable debut but may have a bigger run in him.

MOTION IN LIMINE found only a well-treated rival too strong at Cartmel a fortnight ago and compensation could await off the same mark. Three-time C&D winner Steel Wave always demands respect here and may emerge as the chief threat, despite the veteran's current rating appearing on the high side. O'Faolains Lad would make more appeal over further, but at least he arrives in good heart and he is worth a second look.

MOTION IN LIMINE took well to chasing at Cartmel a fortnight ago given his uninspiring record in points and this looks a good opportunity. Steel Wave isn't well treated at present but his good record over C&D may see him fill a place.

After looking the most likely winner for a long way on his recent chasing debut, MOTION IN LIMINE (nap) can gain compensation here.

AUGHAFATTEN made a perfect start to life under Rules when scoring in a bumper at Perth and appears to have been found a great opportunity to complete a brace. Professor Higgins wasn't disgraced on his third-placed debut at Worcester and may give the selection most to think about now in the care of Gary Hanmer, although newcomer Pic The Power, whose yard had a winner in a NH Flat race here last season, isn't without hope.

Point winner AUGHAFATTEN made a successful switch to Rules when scoring at Perth last month and he's been found a good opportunity to defy a penalty. Professor Higgins is the obvious danger on form and Pic The Power strikes as an interesting newcomer.

This ought to be straightforward for AUGHAFATTEN, who won what looked a much stronger bumper than this at Perth last month.

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.
