1	4 1st (4) (13/2 +80%) Victory Shout		6.5 13/2(+80%)																															(4) Victory Shout 13/2, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Exeter latest; off a short-break; yet to deliver on Flat promise but given basement mark. Quiet start over hurdles; 33-1 and upped to 2m5f when pulled up on handicap hurdle debut.
2	7 2nd (7) (25/1 -39%) Walk In The West		25 25/1(-39%)																															(7) Walk In The West 25/1, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Wincanton latest; hood and tongue-tie first time; off a short-break; plenty to prove over hurdles. Lacks solid form claims; hood and tongue-tie are now fitted and it's his handicap debut.
3	11 3rd (11) (66/1 -164%) Dance Havana		66 66/1(-164%)																															(11) Dance Havana 66/1, Not suited by the ground well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow latest; effective 2m-2m3f on a sound surface; massive absence to overcome. Soundly beaten in two soft-ground handicaps when last seen early in 2024.
4	13 4th (13) (16/1 +43%) Saucats		16 16/1(+43%)																															(13) Saucats 16/1, Never threatened when down the field in a handicap hurdle here most recent; usually held up; off a short-break; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; needs more. 40-1 third at Wincanton (1m7f, good) in November reads well; nothing resembling that since.
5th	3 5th (3) (15/8 -7%) St Lukes Chelsea		1.875 15/8(-7%)																															(3) St Lukes Chelsea 15/8, Back to best on drier ground beaten 3/4l off a 1lb lower mark here last time; trainer in form; effective 2m, acts on soft and good; good chance again. 0-16 but his last four starts, latest over C&D, all suggest a major role today.
6th	5 6th (5) (11/1 -83%) Castle Quarter		11 11/1(-83%)																															(5) Castle Quarter 11/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Fakenham latest; off a short-break; effective around 2m, acts on good to soft and good; bounce back needed. Wincanton 3rd two starts back was easily the best of his four efforts this autumn/winter.
7th	2 7th (2) (11/1 -120%) Raging Al		11 11/1(-120%)																															(2) Raging Al 11/1, Too much to do behind all-the-way winner on handicap debut when second beaten 13l at Ludlow latest; usually held up; effective 2m, acts on good to soft; can do better in handicaps when ridden more positively. Last two outings were his best in this sphere; down 2lb since 2nd on handicap hurdle debut.
8th	9 8th (9) (80/1 -400%) Anthracite		80 80/1(-400%)																															(9) Anthracite 80/1, Again ran to a poor level down the field in a maiden hurdle at Wincanton most recent; bit to prove at present over hurdles, not least stamina. After a big layoff, no worthwhile form in three maiden hurdles; handicap hurdle debut.
9th	12 9th (12) (11/1 +50%) Mi Sueno		11 11/1(+50%)																															(12) Mi Sueno 11/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Chepstow latest; effective 2m on soft; regressive and not easy to fancy. Won twice on soft early in 2024 but right out of form since; second start for trainer.
10th	10 10th (10) (100/1 -52%) Ezmerellda		100 100/1(-52%)																															(10) Ezmerellda 100/1, Pulled up in a handicap hurdle at Hereford latest; effective 2m-2m5f on soft and good; regressive. Very hard to fancy judged on her seven races from November 2024 onwards.
11th	6 11th (6) (14/1 +30%) Daany		14 14/1(+30%)																															(6) Daany 14/1, Small step back in right direction when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Wincanton latest; effective around 2m on soft and good; bounce back needed. Had an excellent 2024 but absent 343 days afterwards and has not regained his form.
1	1 |PU| (1) (4/1 +38%) Thistle Be The One		4 4/1(+38%)																															(1) Thistle Be The One 4/1, Jumping let him down when fourth beaten 43l in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton latest; visor first time; effective 2m-2m4f, acts on soft and good; handicapper given him a chance. This season has been particularly disappointing and he now has a change in equipment.
8	8 |PU| (8) (6/1 +0%) Man Oh Man		6 6/1(+0%)																															(8) Man Oh Man 6/1, Back to form upped in trip 8 1/4l third in a handicap hurdle here most recent run; cheekpieces first time; effective 2m3f-2m5f, acts on any; capable off this mark. Twice third in handicaps from his four British starts and those 3rds were at this track.

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

ST LUKES CHELSEA was beaten less than a length when third over C&D earlier in the month and the handicapper might have kind to only put him up 1lb for that effort. With the majority of his rivals having something to prove, Robert Walford's gelding has every chance of getting off the mark. Raging Al was no match for an easy winner on his handicap bow at Ludlow but remains capable of stepping forward. Man Oh Man and Castle Quarter are others to note.

0-16 but in the firing line all the way up the straight over C&D last time, ST LUKES CHELSEA makes most appeal in this low-level race.

Pulled up at Fontwell ten days ago; this course winner is the sort to bounce back though.

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

Ede'iffs Rock got back to winning ways over C&D when making it back-to-back victories in that contest last month. However, a 10lb rise does appear to be on the harsh side, so preference is for WICKED THOUGHTS. A winner over C&D on his penultimate start, a line can be put through his subsequent effort at Exeter and he is only 2lb higher than that success. Gyenyame appears best of the remainder.

Front-running mare EDE'IFFS ROCK goes well round here and is taken to defy a 10lb rise for her latest C&D win

TREASURE PLANET gets in here off bottom weight for a powerful yard and makes plenty of appeal boasting an unexposed profile. He won a juvenile hurdle at Ludlow, was deemed good enough for Listed company at Aintree and wasn't disgraced on his handicap debut at Newbury latest when a close second. He makes more appeal than C&D winner Khafre and Siam Park.

Those with form don't set a very high standard as Crest of Arms finished seventh on debut at Wincanton before another mediocre display at Cheltenham, albeit that was in Listed company. Arms Park will need to improve on his third-placed effort here.

Anthony Honeyball's CREST OF ARMS caught the eye when seventh in a Cheltenham Listed bumper and can build on it here to get off the mark

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.
