A winner over C&D on her latest outing last month, a 5lb raised mark may not be enough to hold ATLANTIC DANCER back here and she is fancied to secure a double in this contest. Tonto Foley must hold every chance of building on his fourth at Newcastle when making his handicap debut in February, while Half The Freedom is capable of being in the mix.

TONTO FOLEY took a big step forward on his handicap debut when fourth at Newcastle last time out and is weighted to open his account here off an unchanged mark. C&D scorer Atlantic Dancer rates the chief threat to Christian Williams' lightly-raced sort, with Half The Freedom appealing as the pick of the rest for place purposes.

This might go to TONTO FOLEY, who needs to learn to settle better but caught the eye when tanking through most of his handicap debut.

It could be worth siding with the grade-dropping MEXICO, who struggled in the EBF Final at Sandown last month. He has to shoulder 7lb penalty for an easy success which came over an extended 2m4f at Southwell in December, but there is every chance he may benefit from stepping up in trip. Sporting Ace has been knocking on the door of late and can give the selection plenty to think about, along with the Mark Bradstock-trained Mr Vango.

THE NEWEST ONE arrives in good nick and rates the pick on form so can gain a deserved first success in this sphere at the chief expense of Mexico who has his sights lowered here and can get back on track. Top Target and Mr Vango need considering too in a useful novice.

Thorough stayer SPORTING ACE scores very good marks for consistency and will presumably be ridden very positively again.

Even though COREY'S COURAGE finds herself in deeper waters here, she kept on to score by eight and a half lengths over an extended 2m4f at Huntingdon last month and can have another big say in proceedings. Western Jill remains unexposed and is entitled to build on what she has achieved so far on her handicap bow, while Marsh Wren completes the shortlist dropping in class.

COREY'S COURAGE had a next-time-out scorer behind in second when winning comfortably at Huntingdon last month and can make light of a 7 lb rise. Marsh Wren ought to find this easier than the big-field Carlisle Class 3 she contested last time and can give the selection most to do ahead of Lime Drop.

It's hard to get away from COREY'S COURAGE, who was far too good for her rivals at Huntingdon last month.

BLACKJACK MAGIC may have disappointed over further here last time out, but he was a convincing winner at Exeter before that and the drop in trip may only aid his cause on this occasion. The eight-year-old will relish the ground and should have too much for Lord Of Kerak, who has run with credit on both starts in this sphere. Ffos Las winner Real Stone could be interesting going back up in trip.

LORD OF KERAK left his chasing debut form well behind when beaten only by a progressive one at Wetherby 11 days ago (likely to have gone close had he not met the second last wrong) so has a big shout off the same mark. Real Stone looked suited by the drop to 2m when winning in good style at Ffos Las in January but he does stay this far so still rates the main threat back up in distance.

Preference is for BLACKJACK MAGIC, who beat a progressive mare in pretty good style at Exeter in January and is only 3lb higher here.

Last Quarter warrants plenty of consideration on the back of a gallant runner-up effort at Ffos Las, but preference instead is for course winner TIP TOP MOUNTAIN. Robert Walford's charge should have no issue with the step up in trip, being a former point-to-point winner, while his breeding points towards him improving for it as well. Margaret's Legacy is still coming to terms with his new surroundings, while the unexposed Gold Emery is another to note.

The lightly-raced GOLD EMERY left his chase bow well behind when runner-up at Newcastle 2 weeks ago and should improve again over this longer distance, so is narrowly preferred to Last Quarter, who also stepped up massively from his debut in this sphere when just failing at Ffos Las 10 days ago. Tip Top Mountain goes well around here so is another to consider.

As an unexposed sort who is open to progress back up in trip, GOLD EMERY holds very good claims. Last Quarter is feared most.

HAD TO BE HUGO has run with credit on all three starts over hurdles, including when runner-up last time at Hexham, and the six-year-old makes plenty of appeal with his attentions now switched to handicap company. Betterforeveryone remains open to improvement over timber despite falling at Plumpton when last seen, while On We Go completes the shortlist following her Ayr victory in February.

HAD TO BE HUGO looks the way to go on the back of a highly creditable effort in a Hexham maiden last month. The 6-y-o makes his handicap debut off what looks a fair mark and, with just a handful of runs under his belt, he probably has more to offer. The veteran Breizh Alko looks dangerouns but, if all is well following his departure at Plumpton last time, Betterforeveryone could be the one to pose most problems.

It's possible to make a case for several of these but the most attractive profile belongs to the lightly raced HAD TO BE HUGO (nap).

Cherie D'am was an easy winner of a point-to-point at Hexham in November and is likely to prove popular having joined Dan Skelton since that performance. The vote, though, goes to MISTRAL MILLY, who caught the eye on her first start when staying on into fourth at Ascot in February and she is likely to benefit greatly from that experience. Northern Reel and Braunton Burrows appeal most of the remainder.

NORTHERN REEL won an Irish point and her stable is well capable of readying one, so she takes marginal preference over Mistral Milly, who shaped well at Ascot on debut. Cherie d'Am also makes plenty of appeal on paper.

Preference is for MISTRAL MILLY who outran her odds in a big field at Ascot and seems likely to improve.

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.
