13:38 Thirsk (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Boston Dan has progressed with each of his three career starts, most recently finishing second at Ripon, and he sets the standard for others to aim at. Rikki Tiki Tavi failed to build on his debut effort when only fourth at Ayr, and it might be best to side with THE LOST SOCK. Roger Varian's colt showed ability when third on his introduction at Nottingham last month and could find the improvement required.

The most interesting contender is THE LOST SOCK who faded into third on his debut and should be suited by today's drop in distance.

14:15 Thirsk (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ZEUS OLYMPIOS justified short odds to make a winning debut at Kempton in January and is likely to have plenty of improvement in him. The son of Night Of Thunder will relish this extra furlong and can defy his penalty. Nepal has shown ability in Ireland and makes his first start for the George Scott yard, so he has to be considered. Due West completes the shortlist.

The best claims on form are held by the ex-Irish gelding NEPAL and he's taken to get off the mark on his first start for George Scott.

14:50 Thirsk (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

BONDI gamely made his first start in a handicap a winning one at Windsor and may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests. With a subsequent winner coming out of that race, he could defy a 5lb rise. Iwantmytimewithyou completed a double at Bath on his most recent start and has to be respected, while Always A Star is another to watch out for.

Probably best to focus on the two 3yos, with BONDI taken to make light of a 5lb rise for Windsor and see off Iwantmytimewithyou.

15:25 Thirsk (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Blind Beggar made the most of a competitive rating when he won at Sandown last week and has a strong chance of following up. However, there was also plenty to like about the manner in which ROGUE BULLET won at Windsor most recently and the three-year-old could be better equipped to cope with his new mark. Lucius Aurelius, Circus Lion and Bayraat are others with a chance.

A chance is taken with the well-handicapped AL HUSSAR who gave the impression he was ready to strike at York last Friday.

16:05 Thirsk (Class 3) 7f Race Class Flow

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

DARKNESS had Desert Falcon and It Just Takes Time back in second and third when he won over C&D three starts back and has a decent chance of further success running off just 2lb higher. Dubai Beach has been in good form on the all-weather since returning from a break and she could be the biggest danger to the selection. Rhythm Master also merits consideration.

Dubai Beach could still be ahead of her mark but turf is a question mark and she's taken on with DESERT FALCON.

16:40 Thirsk (Class 2) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

BIG LEADER proved there was no fluke about his debut success over 1m at Redcar when he made all to follow up over the same trip in a novice event at Southwell most recently. A rating of 91 for his handicap debut looks manageable given he could be an above-average gelding. The son of Mehmas is an attractive option as he gets 22lb from Botanical, his likely main rival. La Trinidad and Hi Royal are the pick of the rest.

2024 winner La Trinidad can make another bold bid but the unbeaten BIG LEADER is completely unexposed and could be anything.

17:15 Thirsk (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

MISS RAINBOW seems to be at her best when allowed to bowl along at the head of affairs and, with two wins from three runs here, an added 3lb may not stop her from going in again. Stormy Pearl was second at Redcar last month and she can go well with Silvestre De Sousa an eye-catching jockey booking, with Travis another of interest in first-time blinkers.

If there's an unexposed one here it's probably the 3yo INSUSPENSE (nap) and Ollver Cole's filly is taken to strike at the sixth attempt.

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

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

Uncle Sam is the only runner who won last time out, but that was in October last year for Kevin Ryan and he has been gelded since for new connections. Captain Vallo deserves a sixth career success after finishing second on his last two starts, but a chance is taken on HURSTWOOD. Nine times a winner over this trip and placed here twice, he must have every chance.

Captain Vallo looks sure to go well again but KISS ME MY LOVE has good claims on her yard debut if able to repeat her latest run.

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.
