1	3 1st (3) (16/1 -113%) Dandys Derriere		16 16/1(-113%)																															(3) Dandys Derriere 16/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. Never a threat when sixth of 7 in handicap (18/1) at Haydock (1m, good to firm) 20 days ago. Lurks on a dangerous mark, but more needed to take advantage as he drops in trip. Sole win was on AW as 2yo (6f); has run over 7f/1m this year; quite interesting back at 6f.
2	2 2nd (2) (7/1 -17%) Spanish Angel		7 7/1(-17%)																															(2) Spanish Angel 7/1, Failed to meet expectations when fourth of 9 in handicap at Nottingham (5f, good to firm, 6/4) 20 days ago. However, had been running well previously and can make his presence felt (runner-up here in June). Better on the AW but has run some good races on turf recently; well drawn; each-way chance.
3	12 3rd (12) (16/1 -33%) Muatadel		16 16/1(-33%)																															(12) Muatadel 16/1, Twenty-one runs since last win in 2021. With blinkers reapplied, ran one of season's better races when fourth of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, firm. 40/1) 21 days ago. Needs to be able to back up his last run. Not won since 2021; good 4th after a break at Hamilton last time; chance from good draw.
4	1 4th (1) (1.62/1 -30%) Hey Mr		1.62 1.62/1(-30%)																															(1) Hey Mr 1.62/1, Left previous form this season behind when winning 8-runner handicap at Nottingham (5f, good, 4/1) 6 days ago, well on top finish. Remains well treated on old form under a penalty and he can follow up. Both wins over 5f (latest last week) but has run well at 6f; well drawn and a chance.
5th	9 5th (9) (6/1 +50%) The Grey Lass		6 6/1(+50%)																															(9) The Grey Lass 6/1, Fared no better than of late when sixth of 11 in handicap at Musselburgh (5f, good, 22/1) 12 days ago. Has now dropped below her last winning mark, but needs to step up on what she's shown so far this year. 5f Beverley winner last August; not run as well since; return to 6f not sure to suit.
6th	8 6th (8) (18/1 +36%) See My Baby Jive		18 18/1(+36%)																															(8) See My Baby Jive 18/1, Remains a maiden after 16 runs. After 7 months off, always behind when fifth of 6 in handicap (25/1) at Musselburgh (5f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Ended last year in decent form, though, if taking a step forward from her return. Close AW 2nd last autumn; should improve for her comeback run; a possible despite low draw.
7th	6 7th (6) (16/1 +27%) Brunello Breeze		16 16/1(+27%)																															(6) Brunello Breeze 16/1, Has been struggling for form this year, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm, 16/1) 32 days ago. First-time cheekpieces need to spark a revival. Maiden; not shown much this year, including back at 6f last time; cheekpieces now tried.
8th	4 8th (4) (5/1 +17%) Canaria Prince		5 5/1(+17%)																															(4) Canaria Prince 5/1, Ran well when third here (5f) here on penultimate outing, but not in the same form when third of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good, 10/3) 14 days ago. Can bounce back returned to this venue. All wins at 5f, but sound run over C&D the last time he tried 6f; low draw not ideal.
9th	13 9th (13) (66/1 -164%) Congress		66 66/1(-164%)																															(13) Congress 66/1, Below form on turf last 2 starts, seventh of 8 in handicap (11/1) at Carlisle (5.8f, good to soft) 33 days ago. Improvement required. Chance on his AW third in May (6f), although has run two ordinary races on turf since.
10th	14 10th (14) (20/1 +20%) Little Red Dancer		20 20/1(+20%)																															(14) Little Red Dancer 20/1, Opened account at Catterick in May but not in the same form both outings since, seventh of 13 in handicap (18/1) at Doncaster (7f, firm) 17 days ago. Others more persuasive. Won over 6f at Catterick in May and excuses for disappointing runs since; each-way chance.
11th	11 11th (11) (14/1 +30%) Gran Roque		14 14/1(+30%)																															(11) Gran Roque 14/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, fared better than previously for current yard when fifth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f, 50/1) 61 days ago. Task is now to build on that. Mainly modest form although shaped better with headgear when fifth on the AW last time.
12th	10 12th (10) (50/1 -52%) Megatron		50 50/1(-52%)																															(10) Megatron 50/1, Attracted support (11/4) but last of 9 on nursery debut at Newcastle (6f) when last seen in September. First run for yard after leaving Edward Bethell with cheekpieces now applied. 3,500gns buy last autumn; poor form so far; headgear tried but others stronger.

LTO Selection:

15:15 Thirsk Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Hey Mr took a big step forward when scoring over 5f at Nottingham last week, but that was arguably the result of a falling handicap mark and he could struggle under a 5lb penalty. Therefore, a chance is taken on CANARIA PRINCE, who has been consistent of late and can improve from a fair third at Ripon now off 1lb lower. Spanish Angel also merits consideration with his recent consistency in mind.

Having joined Paul Midgley this year, HEY MR left his previous efforts for his current yard behind when winning at Nottingham 6 days ago and he remains well treated on old form. The 5-y-o is taken to follow up, with Canaria Prince feared most having made the frame on all 3 of his previous outings here. Spanish Angel can also go well back at this course.

A chance is taken on SEE MY BABY JIVE, who has shaped well on occasions and should improve for her reappearance run.

1	5 1st (5) (4.5/1 +55%) Rainbow Rain		4.5 4.5/1(+55%)																															(5) Rainbow Rain 4.5/1, Won at Redcar last season but hasn't come close to hitting the same heights this year, only ninth of 10 in handicap at Wetherby (5.5f, good to firm, 6/1) 29 days ago. Visor back on. Something to find on form. 4lb lower than sole win; below par latest, but chance on his C&D fifth in May (form sound).
2	2 2nd (2) (3.6/1 +40%) Quercus		3.6 3.6/1(+40%)																															(2) Quercus 3.6/1, Career-best when winning at Catterick in June. Not in same form when ninth of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (6f) 14 days ago but isn't taken lightly from advantageous draw. All wins over 6f at Catterick (latest in June); well drawn and a possible.
3	8 3rd (8) (12/1 +0%) Howyadoin		12 12/1(+0%)																															(8) Howyadoin 12/1, Fourteen-race maiden failed to justify support when fifth of 8 in handicap (13/2) at Beverley (5f, good to firm) 8 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Blinkers back on. Exposed maiden; has run creditably on occasions but not shown best form at 6f.
4	4 4th (4) (7.5/1 +38%) Chester Le Streak		7.5 7.5/1(+38%)																															(4) Chester Le Streak 7.5/1, Displayed a willing attitude when shedding maiden tag at Carlisle last summer but ran below form both subsequent outings. Market can act as guide on return from 8-month absence. Only 1lb higher than Carlisle win last year; conditions suit; chance if fit after a break.
5th	11 5th (11) (28/1 -12%) King Of Europe		28 28/1(-12%)																															(11) King Of Europe 28/1, Modest maiden handicapper. 18/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 22 days ago. Back up in trip. Others are preferred. Moderate form so far and makes no particular appeal back on turf.
6th	12 6th (12) (33/1 -32%) Kasino		33 33/1(-32%)																															(12) Kasino 33/1, Won at Newcastle in 2022 but hasn't fired this season. Hard to fancy at present. Newcastle winner last September (6f) but hard to fancy after some poor runs this year.
7th	7 7th (7) (9/1 -13%) Ginato		9 9/1(-13%)																															(7) Ginato 9/1, Two wins from 43 Flat runs. 10/3, ½-length third of 9 to Made of Lir in minor event at Ripon (6f, good) 14 days ago. Player if able to build on that. Close 3rd at Ripon last time; best on good or softer (needs rain); stall 1 not ideal.
8th	13 8th (13) (6/1 +14%) Made Of Lir		6 6/1(+14%)																															(13) Made Of Lir 6/1, Well suited by strong gallop when winning 9-runner minor event at Ripon (6f, good) 14 days ago. Player back in a handicap with good-value claimer retaining the ride. Off the mark for this yard at Ripon last time; well drawn and could go well again.
9th	1 9th (1) (5.5/1 -10%) Golden Gal		5.5 5.5/1(-10%)																															(1) Golden Gal 5.5/1, Below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Ripon (5f, good) 14 days ago. Remains on a workable mark if able to bounce back to best, though. Has won at 6f but races mainly over 5f; in decent form this year; each-way chance.
10th	3 10th (3) (11/1 -22%) Peachey Carnehan		11 11/1(-22%)																															(3) Peachey Carnehan 11/1, Eventually finished a respectable fifth of 12 in handicap at Windsor (6f, good to firm) 9 days ago, though only made late ground having come off the bridle some way out. Others preferred. Having his 133rd race; most wins at 6f/7f; fair run last time; further rain would suit.
11th	6 11th (6) (25/1 -178%) Erazmus		25 25/1(-178%)																															(6) Erazmus 25/1, Career-best effort when seventh of 13 in handicap at Redcar (6f, good to firm, 25/1) 11 days ago, never nearer. More needed. Unexposed; closer last time despite poor draw; low draw not ideal; needs a second look.
12th	9 12th (9) (28/1 -250%) Point Of Woods		28 28/1(-250%)																															(9) Point Of Woods 28/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Failed to make any impression this term, albeit meeting notable trouble last time. Still hard to fancy. 8lb lower than C&D success in May last year (good), but mainly moderate efforts since.

15:45 Thirsk Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

QUERCUS may have disappointed at Newcastle a couple of weeks ago, but he did it well at Catterick the time before and the six-year-old must hold strong claims if bouncing back to that sort of form. Golden Gal has been consistent this season without getting her head in front and she is a key player, alongside Peachey Carnehan and Ginato, who was beaten just half a length into third at Ripon.

QUERCUS enhanced his good record at Catterick in June and is taken to bounce back from a poor effort last time with the benefit of an advantageous high draw. Made of Lir finished ahead of Ginato at Ripon last time and that pair are both respected again, whilst Golden Gal lurks on an interesting mark and isn't discounted.

This is a tricky puzzle but ERAZMUS finished a lot closer last time and may be able to build on that to get off the mark.

1	1 1st (1) (6.5/1 -86%) English Oak		6.5 6.5/1(-86%)																															(1) English Oak 6.5/1, Cost plenty as a yearling but seventh of 11 in novice event (15/2) at Newbury (7f, good) on debut 47 days ago. Green that day but he will know more this time. Too green to live up to market support on debut in May; returns with his yard in fine form.
2	9 2nd (9) (0.83/1 +45%) Mubhijah		0.83 0.83/1(+45%)																															(9) Mubhijah 0.83/1, Fairly useful filly. 13/8, creditable second of 5 in novice event at this C&D (good) 26 days ago, clear of rest. Pretty exposed but she sets the clear standard. Consistent and ran well over C&D last month; likely vulnerable for win purposes again.
3	3 3rd (3) (3/1 +33%) Laoisman		3 3/1(+33%)																															(3) Laoisman 3/1, Runner-up on debut at Pontefract and best effort since when third of 6 in novice event at Doncaster (7f, good to firm, 11/1) 32 days ago. Can make presence felt. Latest 3rd (7f, good) looks strong form and he's a major player back up in trip.
4	6 4th (6) (14/1 -40%) Eyeshadow		14 14/1(-40%)																															(6) Eyeshadow 14/1, From a talented family and showed more than on debut when fifth of 12 in novice event at Kempton (7f) 28 days ago. Greenness still apparent on that occasion and she can do better. Second run better than debut but she'll need to improve again for 1m to come out on top.
5th	5 5th (5) (5/1 +29%) Onslow Gardens		5 5/1(+29%)																															(5) Onslow Gardens 5/1, Gelded after juvenile campaign and was a little disappointing when fifth of 6 in novice event (4/1) at Doncaster (7f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Still a big player if he can find his best form. Dangerous on best form but he finished behind Laoisman at Doncaster on his seasonal return.
6th	8 6th (8) (150/1 -355%) Metric		150 150/1(-355%)																															(8) Metric 150/1, Looks the part but badly in need of the experience when last of 5 in novice event at this C&D (good, 20/1) on debut 26 days ago. Green when last of five over C&D on last month's debut; bred to do much better.
7th	10 7th (10) (66/1 -200%) Nannie Dee		66 66/1(-200%)																															(10) Nannie Dee 66/1, 150,000 gns Night of Thunder filly. Dam, maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to smart 1½m-1¾m winner Great Hall out of useful 1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) L'affaire Monique. In need of the experience starting out at Yarmouth. Dropped away at Yarmouth on debut (7f) but she's bred to be useful and should improve.
8th	2 8th (2) (250/1 -279%) Final Chant		250 250/1(-279%)																															(2) Final Chant 250/1, Minor promise only in 4 starts. Poor form to date, including on handicap debut; hard to recommend in novice company.
9th	4 9th (4) (50/1 -213%) Master Chartwell		50 50/1(-213%)																															(4) Master Chartwell 50/1, Eleventh of 15 in maiden at Nottingham (8.3f, good to firm, 7/2) 20 days ago, possibly amiss. Tongue strap back on. Encouragement on debut but well below that level at Nottingham three weeks ago.

16:15 Thirsk Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

MUBHIJAH may still be a maiden after eight starts, but she has been runner-up on three of her last four outings and the daughter of Shamardal deserves a change in luck. The Roger Varian-trained filly can get the better of Laoisman, who had Onslow Gardens a couple of positions behind him when third at Doncaster last time out. Eyeshadow is another with the potential to improve for going up in trip.

MUBHIJAH is pretty exposed now but she holds a form edge and this could finally be the day she sheds her maiden status. Laoisman is likely to give it another good shot, with Onslow Gardens dangerous if back on his game.

English Oak looks a likely improver for a yard going well but LAOISMAN ran a cracker at Doncaster and can make it fourth-time lucky

1	7 1st (7) (7.5/1 -25%) Lilikoi		7.5 7.5/1(-25%)																															(7) Lilikoi 7.5/1, AW winner in January and mostly creditable efforts in defeat since. 11/4, fourth of 7 in handicap at Wetherby (7f, good to firm) 29 days ago. Merits consideration. Held her form since an AW win in January; strong early pace likely to enhance her claims.
2	11 2nd (11) (16/1 +36%) Magical Effect		16 16/1(+36%)																															(11) Magical Effect 16/1, C&D winner. 10/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good to firm) 2 days ago. Others more persuasive. Late headway over 6f on Monday; return to 7f can help but this looks too competitive.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/1 -80%) Rocket Rod		9 9/1(-80%)																															(1) Rocket Rod 9/1, Hold-up performer who bounced back to form to win a 15-runner handicap at Doncaster (7f, firm) 17 days ago. Can be competitive after a 4 lb rise but he is one who needs things to drop right. First turf win at Doncaster last month; up 4lb but should be in the shake-up once again.
4	12 4th (12) (33/1 +0%) El Montejean		33 33/1(+0%)																															(12) El Montejean 33/1, Has struggled in handicaps so far this year. Can only be watched at present. Yet to recapture his 2yo form in three handicaps this year; risky.
5th	10 5th (10) (7/1 -40%) Honour Your Dreams		7 7/1(-40%)																															(10) Honour Your Dreams 7/1, 5/1, creditable good fifth of 9 in handicap at Ayr (7f, firm) 11 days ago, nearest at the finish. Ought to be competitive. Ayr maiden winner last season; good run over 6f here in May; one to consider.
6th	9 6th (9) (10/1 +60%) Carlton And Co		10 10/1(+60%)																															(9) Carlton And Co 10/1, Tongue strap on first time, 5¾ lengths eleventh of 15 to Rocket Rod in handicap at Doncaster (7f, firm, 18/1) 17 days ago. Others are preferred. 0-11 but has shown winning potential; sharper for last month's return; check betting.
7th	3 7th (3) (5/1 +50%) Flash The Dash		5 5/1(+50%)																															(3) Flash The Dash 5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Ninth of 12 in handicap (11/1) at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) 35 days ago. Mark on the slide but others arrive with more pressing claims. Not found his top form since returned to this yard; down in weights but risky proposition.
8th	5 8th (5) (7.5/1 +38%) Blackjack		7.5 7.5/1(+38%)																															(5) Blackjack 7.5/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in March. Respectable third of 7 in handicap (18/5) at Catterick (6f, good to firm) 25 days ago. The draw could have been kinder. Had a good year on AW and ran okay back on turf last month; having a rare 7f run today.
9th	2 9th (2) (12/1 +0%) One More Dream		12 12/1(+0%)																															(2) One More Dream 12/1, Five AW wins but has yet to prove he's as good on turf, finishing down the field over C&D 15 days ago. Progressive on AW but still to show comparable form on turf; too much to prove.
10th	13 10th (13) (11/1 -69%) Temper Trap		11 11/1(-69%)																															(13) Temper Trap 11/1, 25/1, best effort this year when fifth of 13 in handicap at Catterick (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Well handicapped if he can build on that. Had purple patch last summer; back to good mark & latest 5th was better; 7f on sharp side.
11th	8 11th (8) (5.5/1 -10%) Biplane		5.5 5.5/1(-10%)																															(8) Biplane 5.5/1, Won at Newcastle (1m) in May and went in again over 7f at Redcar 12 days ago, doing well to overcome a positional bias. A 3 lb rise looks manageable. Won 2 of her last 3 and shouldn't be far away despite the step up into Class 5 company.
12th	14 12th (14) (22/1 -57%) Maggie's Tern		22 22/1(-57%)																															(14) Maggie's Tern 22/1, Unable to land a serious blow when fifth of 8 in a 5f Redcar handicap 12 days ago but it was her best effort of 2023 and the significant step back up in trip might help her. Maiden who has dropped a long way in the weights; return to 7f needs to squeeze out more.
13th	4 13th (4) (12/1 +25%) Mercurius Power		12 12/1(+25%)																															(4) Mercurius Power 12/1, AW winner for Andrew Balding last year but hard to get too excited by this year's efforts for new yard, finishing well behind Rocket Rod at Doncaster on latest. Tumbling down the weights but with little sign of capitalising; others look safer.
14th	6 14th (6) (33/1 +0%) Panama City		33 33/1(+0%)																															(6) Panama City 33/1, Last of 10 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good to firm, 28/1) on reappearance 23 days ago. Needs to have come on a lot. Struggled in handicaps since his maiden win one year ago; did have an excuse on return.

16:50 Thirsk Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

This can go the way of BIPLANE, who has been in terrific form of late and stuck her neck out to score at Redcar on her most recent start. A 3lb rise for that success could prove lenient and she gets the vote ahead of Lilikoi and Rocket Rod, who was a determined winner at Doncaster last time out. Others to note include Blackjack, Honour Your Dreams and Temper Trap.

BIPLANE did well to get up off a steady pace at Redcar and could still be on a good mark. Lilikoi has had a consistent spell and rates a threat, while Tender Trap shaped a bit better last time and is well treated judged on last year's form.

Honour Your Dreams can go well but LILIKOI is preferred in the hope she'll find this being run to suit.

Possible he'll be sharper for the outing. Creditable third at Windsor latest; must enter calculations if building on that effort.
2	8 2nd (8) (4.5/1 +0%) Rock Of England		4.5 4.5/1(+0%)																															(8) Rock Of England 4.5/1, C&D winner at 2. Back to winning ways at Hamilton in first-time blinkers and backed that up when second at Ripon (6f, good) 14 days ago. Player if in the same form here. Much improved in blinkers, scoring at Hamilton before Ripon 2nd; C&D winner is a player.
3	3 3rd (3) (4.5/1 +50%) Tinto		4.5 4.5/1(+50%)																															(3) Tinto 4.5/1, C&D winner. 9/2, respectable fourth of 11 in C&D handicap (good) 46 days ago. Back on a winning mark. Needs considering. C&D scorer who posted solid fourth back here last month; shortlisted off a falling mark.
4	5 4th (5) (8.5/1 +15%) Music Society		8.5 8.5/1(+15%)																															(5) Music Society 8.5/1, Creditable third of 13 in handicap at Pontefract (6f, good, 12/1) 10 days ago. Ought to be competitive from the same mark. Winless in 2023 but largely running well; can go well again off an unchanged mark.
5th	6 5th (6) (3.5/1 +71%) Ghathanfar		3.5 3.5/1(+71%)																															(6) Ghathanfar 3.5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Doncaster (6f, good to firm, 11/2) 4 days ago. Visor back on. Others are preferred. Has yet to make the frame in six outings this season; has something to prove.
6th	4 6th (4) (18/1 -300%) Danger Alert		18 18/1(-300%)																															(4) Danger Alert 18/1, Career best when landing a third win of the year in 5f Chester handicap (heavy) in May (final outing for George Boughey). 6 lb rise demands more again now starting out for a new stable. 3rd win for George Boughey at Chester in May; much respected for another good yard now.
7th	1 7th (1) (3/1 -33%) Mr Wagyu		3 3/1(-33%)																															(1) Mr Wagyu 3/1, Admirable sprinter who was back on track when third in the Dash at Epsom. Well held at Haydock a week later but wasted no time showing he's still in form when seventh of 27 in Wokingham at Royal Ascot 11 days ago. Much respected in these calmer waters. Good 7th in Wokingham at Royal Ascot; easing in the weights and very much considered.
8th	2 8th (2) (18/1 +18%) Bergerac		18 18/1(+18%)																															(2) Bergerac 18/1, Reacted well to blinkers when winning handicaps at Newmarket and York last summer. The headgear was left off when well held on his 5f Newcastle reappearance in March and it's missing again back from a further 3 months off. 8th in Newcastle handicap in March; he returns from another break now with more needed.

17:20 Thirsk Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

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

A game winner over 5f at Chester in May, DANGER ALERT now makes his debut for the Alice Haynes stable and the improving three-year-old rates the one to beat off 6lb higher. He is yet to finish outside the first two in handicap company and, with further progression likely, gets the vote from the class-dropping Mr Wagyu. Rock Of England found only one too strong when attempting to supplement a Hamilton victory at Ripon and is another to consider.

A useful sprint. MR WAGYU was a highly creditable seventh in the Wokingham at Royal Ascot and could take a bit of stopping in this lower grade. Rock of England will be a threat if the blinkers continue to have a positive effect. Tinto is on a winning mark and is another to consider.

The vote goes to ROCK OF ENGLAND (nap) who hasn't looked back since blinkered and can defy a career-high mark to bag a second C&D win.

17:50 Thirsk Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A stiffer stamina test will suit ROCK N ROLL PINKIE, given she seemed outpaced over 1m4f at Leicester. She is rated 3lb higher than when breaking her duck over this distance at Wetherby before that, but Elle-May Croot takes 7lb off her back so Ivan Furtado's filly seems fairly well treated. Grain Of Hope remains unexposed and could have more to offer, while Timewave completes the shortlist in a first-time visor.

CORSICAN CAPER wasn't quite on his game last time but he'd been on the up previously and should find this easier, so he can shed his maiden tag if he gets the longer trip. Timewave is another one to consider and A Day To Dream is expected to be back to form.

A Day To Dream and ROCK N ROLL PINKIE have accomplished something at 1m6f, while Grain Of Hope could do so at the first attempt.

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.
