Races & Results Friday 1st November 2024
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(1) Lookaway 4/6, Likeable sort who completed a hat-trick in Cheltenham Grade 2 a year ago and several pretty useful efforts in defeat after at up to 20.5f. Winning Irish pointer and a quick jumper over hurdles so really should take to chasing. Grade 2 winner over hurdles and he should take some catching on chase debut.

2nd (2) (5/4 +23%) Personal Ambition
1.25
5/4(+23%)
(2) Personal Ambition 5/4, Placed in an Irish point and quickly built up a good record over hurdles, looking more polished than previously when landing Grade 1 Premier Novice at Kelso (18f) in March. Found out in better company a month later but he has the physique for chasing. Useful hurdler but this looks a tough enough starting point over fences against Lookaway.

12:20 Uttoxeter Maiden Chase (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Just the two runners and with the pair making their debuts over fences and the chance of a tactical race, anything could happen. Both have been known to front run, but Ben Pauling has his horses in the better form so PERSONAL AMBITION gets the nod. He does have a few pounds to find on hurdles ratings with Lookaway, but he is lightly raced and could go on to be even better over the larger obstacles. His rival, also a Grade 2-winning novice hurdler, has an exciting future at this game too.
There wasn't a massive amount between LOOKAWAY and Personal Ambition as hurdlers and both possess the physique to excel over the larger obstacles this term. The former won his point and was notably slick over timber, which tilts the scales his way.
Both of the runners were Grade 2 winners over hurdles but LOOKAWAY had the best form in that sphere and he gets the vote.
12:20 Uttoxeter Maiden Chase (Class 3) 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(10) Walkadina 10/3, Placed on her sole outing in points and sound start to her Rules career with a brace of runner-up efforts in bumpers during the spring. One to consider now hurdling with a tongue tie on. Placed in a point and runner-up in two bumpers; needs watching in market on hurdling debut.

2nd (9) (5/2 -11%) Sunset Marquesa
2.5
5/2(-11%)
(9) Sunset Marquesa 5/2, Related to winners and made a successful start herself at Aintree a year ago. Solid efforts to hit the frame at listed level later that season and makes hurdles debut for bang in-form yard. Did well in bumpers last term including at Listed level; interesting recruit to hurdling.

1
3rd (1) (7/1 +7%) Irish Chorus
7
7/1(+7%)
(1) Irish Chorus 7/1, Just modest form at best in 3 bumper outings and given a considerate introduction to hurdling on the back of 3 months off/a wind op at Kempton (2m) in March. Clearly derived plenty from that as she found only one too good at Warwick 2 months later. Good second behind odds-on rival at Warwick in May and she's respected on her return.
4

4th (5) (15/8 +25%) Queens Melody
1.875
15/8(+25%)
(5) Queens Melody 15/8, £60,000 4-y-o, Jukebox Jury mare. Placed both starts in points and despite showing inexperience, she won 13-runner bumper at Hereford in March. Found out in a better race at Punchestown 2 months later but has to be of interest at this level now hurdling. Bumper winner who wasn't disgraced in Grade 3 latest; key player on hurdling debut.
5th

5th (4) (200/1 -100%) Primary Explosive
200
200/1(-100%)
(4) Primary Explosive 200/1, Blue Bresil mare. Dam, bumper/fair 2m hurdle winner, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 27f) Trackmate and bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Desilvano. Well held both starts. Some promise on her Worcester debut but was pulled up at Bangor next time.
6th
8
6th (8) (17/2 -70%) Seas The Day
8.5
17/2(-70%)
(8) Seas The Day 17/2, Half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser Feel The Pinch and bumper winner Billams Legacy. Best of those held up when second in a bumper at Wetherby in November and again shaped well when occupying same spot 2 months later. Good platform for hurdling. Runner-up in two bumpers last season and she's an interesting contender on hurdling debut.
7th
7
7th (7) (300/1 -200%) Royal Malinas
300
300/1(-200%)
(7) Royal Malinas 300/1, Dam, maiden on Flat, closely related to very smart hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 21f) Nicanor: Third both starts in Irish points in late-2022 but off a long time and limited promise on last month's hurdles debut. Back from long absence with a tailed-off effort on hurdling debut at Chepstow last month.
8th
3
8th (3) (50/1 -100%) Made For Me
50
50/1(-100%)
(3) Made For Me 50/1, Runner-up completed start in Irish points (March 2023) but only minor promise under Rules so far, showing a bit more but no match for the principals on last month's return to action. Promising third on hurdling debut at Hereford and has claims if she can build on that.
12:55 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
An interesting mares' maiden that sees the highly-regarded QUEENS MELODY make her hurdling debut. A comfortable Hereford bumper winner in March, she was then thrown in at the deep end in a Grade 3 at Punchestown when only 10th, but ought to find this company more to her liking. Seas The Day was second in both her bumpers and should be a different proposition now sent jumping, making her a serious danger to all, while Walkadina and Sunset Marquesa are others for the shortlist.
This looks wide open but SUNSET MARQUESA displayed plenty of ability in bumpers last season and returning with her yard in fine form, she could be the answer. Queens Melody and Seas The Day also displayed plenty of ability in that sphere and rate likely types, too.
An interesting race in which the vote goes to useful bumper performer SUNSET MARQUESA, who could have a bright future over hurdles.
12:55 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(6) Railway Bell 2/1, 2/1 and tongue strap on, won 11-runner bumper at Newton Abbot (16.8f, good to firm) on NH debut 165 days ago. Likely player now going hurdling. Placed in two points and won her sole bumper; interesting contender on hurdling debut.
2
8
2nd (8) (5/6 +67%) Star Walking
0.833333
5/6(+67%)
(8) Star Walking 5/6, 10/11, emphatically won 7-runner bumper at Fakenham (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 7 months ago. This Irish points scorer merits serious consideration on her first go in this sphere. Sold for £115,000 after her point win and she won a bumper in May; interesting contender.
3
2
3rd (2) (50/1 -400%) Jessie Jump Jet
50
50/1(-400%)
(2) Jessie Jump Jet 50/1, Fourth of 9 in bumper (3/1) at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to firm) on NH debut 176 days ago. Respected on her hurdles debut. Promise in her sole bumper and she's out of a useful hurdler; one to keep an eye on.
4
7
4th (7) (14/1 -100%) Reel Rosie
14
14/1(-100%)
(7) Reel Rosie 14/1, Fairly useful Flat winner, disappointing at Wolverhampton (AW debut) 25 days ago though. Certainly has the ability to play a part on jumps debut if the switch can ignite her. Useful at her best on the Flat and needs checking in market on hurdling debut.
5th
10
5th (10) (50/1 -100%) Little Venice
50
50/1(-100%)
(10) Little Venice 50/1, Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 12f), opening her account at Beverley (9.9f) in June. Low-key hurdling start at Plumpton and Ludlow and looks more of a long-term project in this sphere. Sole Flat win was in a Class 6 and well held in both hurdle runs this autumn.
6th
5
6th (5) (100/1 -52%) Now Then Wendy
100
100/1(-52%)
(5) Now Then Wendy 100/1, A fair winner at 12f on Flat for Hughie Morrison. 20/1, encouraging fifth of 8 in novice hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good to firm) 34 days ago. 1m4f Flat winner but she's been pulled up and tailed off in her two hurdle runs.
7th
4
7th (4) (25/1 0%) Nobody's Perfect
25
25/1(0%)
(4) Nobody's Perfect 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 16/1, sixth of 9 in novice hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good) on hurdles bow 17 days ago. Needs to build on it. Some promise in points/bumpers but was well held on hurdling debut last month.
8th
9
8th (9) (150/1 -50%) Windsor Wife
150
150/1(-50%)
(9) Windsor Wife 150/1, Point winner. Ninth of 10 in novice hurdle at Carlisle (17.2f, soft, 66/1) 15 days ago. Dead-heated in her sole point but was tailed off on hurdling debut last month.
9th
3
9th (3) (16/1 -129%) Kenmya
16
16/1(-129%)
(3) Kenmya 16/1, A fair French scorer on Flat but off for 15 months since winning a claimer at La Teste. Still very much one to consider starting out in this sphere for top handler. Five Flat wins in France and Spain and she needs close look on hurdling/stable debut.
1
1
|PU| (1) (33/1 -136%) Adaaylight Dancer
33
33/1(-136%)
(1) Adaaylight Dancer 33/1, A fair 9f Flat winner in Spain but off for 15 months. Needs to hit the ground running on yard/hurdling debut. Seven Flat wins in Spain; now goes hurdling for new yard and needs checking in market.
13:25 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Star Walking arrives unbeaten after a victory between the flags and a bumper success at Fakenham, although the form isn't really working out. RAILWAY BELL reached the frame in both her point-to-points and made the best possible start under Rules with a comfortable win in a Newton Abbot bumper in May. She may prove good enough to run the leaders down late on over this trip, while Kenmya is a multiple Flat winner on the continent and is worth a market watch ahead of her debut for Dan Skelton.
The market should reveal plenty but it's hard to ignore the claims of STAR WALKING who followed up her Irish points success with a stylish winning bumper debut at Fakenham and can now follow suit going hurdling. Fellow newcomer Railway Bell also comes here on the back of a bumper victory and is feared most, although fellow debutantes Kenmya, Reel Rosie and Jessie Jump Jet need factoring in too.
An interesting race in which bumper winner RAILWAY BELL gets the vote ahead of Star Walking, who is unbeaten in a point and bumper.
13:25 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(12) Western Knight 22/1, Showed plenty when runner-up in bumper at Plumpton on debut but well held at Taunton a year later. Off 6 months. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. Best bumper run isn't strong form but on breeding he should do much better over hurdles.
2
10
2nd (10) (10/3 -48%) Julius Des Pictons
3.333333
10/3(-48%)
(10) Julius Des Pictons 10/3, Fair form in bumpers in France and similar form when runner-up both outings over hurdles in 2023/24, beaten short neck on second occasion. Left M. Mescam €120,000 in November 2023. Form pick starting out for new yard. Won a 1m4f bumper in France and just missed out on his final hurdle run there.
3
7
3rd (7) (25/1 -25%) Icare Colombe
25
25/1(-25%)
(7) Icare Colombe 25/1, Unfancied in the betting but showed ability in bumpers for Thomas Gallagher. Off 6 months. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. Middle bumper run far better than the others; has joined a top yard to go hurdling.
4
3
4th (3) (28/1 -100%) Boston Boy
28
28/1(-100%)
(3) Boston Boy 28/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points but failed to see race out both starts in bumpers. Off 6 months. Makes hurdles debut. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Expensive point recruit but it was a quiet start under rules in bumpers.
5th
1
5th (1) (1/1 +70%) Diamond Dealer
1
1/1(+70%)
(1) Diamond Dealer 1/1, Point winner who hasn't looked an easy conveyance under Rules, but under a change of tactics and tongue tie, he left his previous efforts behind when off the mark in C&D novice last month. Must be respected under a penalty. In a first-time tongue-tie when left clear to win easily here; penalised but respected.
6th
9
6th (9) (9/2 +0%) J J Moon
4.5
9/2(+0%)
(9) J J Moon 9/2, Much improved away from soft ground when making third bumper start a winning one at Southwell in May. Showed plenty to work on by the end when third of 6 in novice at Market Rasen (20.6f, good, 11/2) on hurdles bow 17 days ago, finishing with running left. Will do better. Bumper winner; beaten 14l into third on hurdling debut and this could be stronger.
7th
8
7th (8) (11/1 -57%) Jax Junior
11
11/1(-57%)
(8) Jax Junior 11/1, Fair form in bumpers, placed last 2 starts. Off 8 months. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. Beaten 3l and 13l in two Huntingdon bumpers on soft ground, posting similar RPRs.
8th
13
8th (13) (66/1 0%) Livy's Lad
66
66/1(0%)
(13) Livy's Lad 66/1, Kayf Tara gelding. Dam useful 2m-2½m hurdle winner. Fourth of 6 sole start in points and offered little debuting under Rules in a tongue strap here last month. Well beaten in a point bumper and again in Diamond Dealer's maiden hurdle here last month.
5
5
|PU| (5) (33/1 -230%) Gamblergo
33
33/1(-230%)
(5) Gamblergo 33/1, €40,000 5-y-o who was successful sole outing in Irish points (Mar 2024). One to note on Rules debut. Bought for £40,000 but it's now looking a weak Irish point that he won in March.
11
11
|PU| (11) (150/1 -127%) Nelsons Star
150
150/1(-127%)
(11) Nelsons Star 150/1, Once-raced maiden. Last of 12 in bumper (22/1) at Ludlow (15.8f, heavy) on NH debut. Off 11 months. Makes hurdles debut. Up in trip. In trouble a long way out in a bumper at Ludlow (soft; 22-1) and eventually tailed off.
4
4
|PU| (4) (200/1 -300%) Casting Aspersions
200
200/1(-300%)
(4) Casting Aspersions 200/1, Runner-up both completed starts in points but looks one for the longer term under Rules based on early evidence. Point/bumper promise but not shown much in two maiden hurdles, latterly at 150-1.
14:00 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
DIAMOND DEALER had plenty in hand when winning over C&D by 26 lengths just under a month ago and the five-year-old is hard to oppose on the back of that performance, despite a 7lb penalty. Julius Des Pictons showed ability when trained in France and has to be of interest on his debut for these connections, while J J Moon and Gamblergo are also noted.
GOT A DREAM was the best of these in bumpers, finishing better than mid-field in a Grade 2 at Aintree on final start, and is preferred over last month's C&D winner Diamond Dealer, who shoulders a 7 lb penalty. Julius des Pictons looks an interesting recruit from France having split a pair of subsequent winners when just edged out in a novice hurdle at Fontainebleau when last seen 12 months ago.
The penalty asks a question of him but DIAMOND DEALER delivered a useful performance here last time, for all that he was left clear.
14:00 Uttoxeter Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f PREDICTION SIMULATION
(12) Hawaii Du Mestivel 15/8, Much improved since tongue tied and bids for a hat-trick after wide-margin handicap wins at Fontwell and Bangor of late. Up another 12 lb but he's still a big player. Emphatic wins in last two runs and he's open to more progress; big player again.
2
7
2nd (7) (12/1 -9%) Bertie B
12
12/1(-9%)
(7) Bertie B 12/1, Scored at Hereford in February but signed off with a below form third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (21f, heavy, 9/2) 7 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running on his return. Record of 1-9 over hurdles and needs more progress after 236 days off.
3
8
3rd (8) (16/1 -33%) My Monty
16
16/1(-33%)
(8) My Monty 16/1, 33-length winner in 23f handicap here in May and backed it up with a good second there following month. Much respected after a break. Easy win and creditable second here (2m7f) in last two runs; dangerous on his return.
4
5
4th (5) (28/1 +44%) North Parade
28
28/1(+44%)
(5) North Parade 28/1, In need of the run on his return when ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (24.1f, good to soft, 20/1) 16 days ago. A three-time 2m4f scorer last term so he needs considering. Three hurdle wins at Newcastle last winter but he's finished in rear in last two starts.
5th
11
5th (11) (11/1 -10%) Kay Tara Tara
11
11/1(-10%)
(11) Kay Tara Tara 11/1, Ended her time with Alan King under a cloud, only ninth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (19.6f, good) 173 days ago. Since had breathing surgery (also tongue tied) so needs considering for her new yard given she goes well fresh. Returns after wind for surgery for new yard and has claims if she can get back on track.
6th
10
6th (10) (9/1 +25%) Call To Duty
9
9/1(+25%)
(10) Call To Duty 9/1, Only a fair furth of 7 in novice hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, good, 4/1) 22 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut with more required if he's to open his account here. Lightly raced handicap newcomer but he needs to resume his progress at this new trip.
7th
3
7th (3) (14/1 +13%) Icare Allen
14
14/1(+13%)
(3) Icare Allen 14/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, last of 8 in handicap hurdle at Bangor (19.6f, good) 126 days ago. Others appeal more. Well treated on old form but he's not shown much for current yard; lots to prove on return.
8th
4
8th (4) (4/1 +56%) Tommie Gun
4
4/1(+56%)
(4) Tommie Gun 4/1, Held when fell last in handicap chase (7/2) at Warwick (20f, good) on debut over fences 29 days ago. Switches back to hurdles and this fair 2m winner can't be discounted with his yard going well. Fell on recent chase debut but he still has potential in this sphere and is not ruled out.
9th
2
9th (2) (7/2 -5%) Honneur D'ajonc
3.5
7/2(-5%)
(2) Honneur D'ajonc 7/2, Improved to win 8-runner handicap hurdle (11/4) at Fontwell (17.7f, good) 38 days ago. Can make his presence felt despite taking a 6 lb rise. Ended lengthy losing run off reduced mark at Fontwell last time; respected back up in trip.
10th
9
10th (9) (33/1 -230%) Chankaya
33
33/1(-230%)
(9) Chankaya 33/1, Got off the mark with a career best in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Taunton (19f, soft) 8 months ago on his final run for Mitchell Hunt. Not taken lightly on his return/yard bow. Won at Taunton in February and has claims if he can pick up where he left off for new yard.
11th
6
11th (6) (28/1 -40%) Norley
28
28/1(-40%)
(6) Norley 28/1, First run since leaving Tom Gretton when 33½ lengths fifth of 8 to Honneur D'ajonc in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, good, 10/1) 38 days ago. Needs to build on it. On dangerous mark but last win was 19 months ago and he's lost his way; passed over.
14:35 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
HONNEUR D'AJONC bounced back to form when winning over an extended 2m1f at Fontwell, on just his third start for this yard. A 6lb rise for that success seems fair as he may have more improvement left to come. The hat-trick seeking Hawaii Du Mestivel is an obvious threat, but he is 14lb higher than when scoring at Bangor in September. Others to consider are Call To Duty and Tommie Gun.
A case can be made for a few of these but HAWAII DU MESTIVEL arrives firmly on the up so is taken to bag his hat-trick and defy a career-high mark. Honneur d'Ajonc is feared most on the back of his Fontwell victory, with Kay Tara Tara, Horsesomeharry and Chankaya all in the mix too.
The pick is hat-trick-seeker HAWAII DU MESTIVEL (nap) who won in emphatic style in his last two runs and is open to more progress.
(4) Crystal Glance 3/1, Showed plenty to work on when third at Hereford on debut and confirmed that promise when scoring in maiden at Bangor (16.7f, good) in May. Open to further improvement as she goes handicapping so she's a major player. Early promise more than confirmed when winning at Bangor; can improve now handicapping.
2
7
2nd (7) (9/2 +63%) El Vigaro
4.5
9/2(+63%)
(7) El Vigaro 9/2, Best effort so far when fifth of 11 on his handicap debut at Stratford. Off 5 months after never looked like justifying support fitted with a tongue tie 3 weeks ago. Ran well for a long way on handicap debut in May; had excuses since; too soon to rule out.
3
9
3rd (9) (7/1 -155%) Gwennie May Jem
7
7/1(-155%)
(9) Gwennie May Jem 7/1, In a top yard but little promise in a bumper/ 3 starts over hurdles so far. ALlotted a basement mark so a market check is vital. Modest form in a valuable bumper (10-1) and 3 qualifying hurdles; much easier race here.
4
8
4th (8) (7/2 +56%) George Mallory
3.5
7/2(+56%)
(8) George Mallory 7/2, C&D winner who gave another reasonable account of himself when third here a month ago. Cheekpieces on first time over jumps and others more persuasive. Sole win over C&D and has a generally sound record here; not far away.
5th
5
5th (5) (15/2 +38%) Northern Rose
7.5
15/2(+38%)
(5) Northern Rose 15/2, 4-y-o filly who finished runner-up twice at Stratford this summer. Off 6 weeks and effort at Bangor since was a little underwhelming. Maiden who has shown up well in handicaps; well held latest; this could be tricky too.
6th
3
6th (3) (18/1 +18%) African Lady
18
18/1(+18%)
(3) African Lady 18/1, Fitted with headgear and low-key start in handicaps for current yard. Tongue tie added. Fairly encouraging handicap debut; pulled up, then finished remote since; tongue-tie added.
7th
6
7th (6) (20/1 +39%) Saint Vic
20
20/1(+39%)
(6) Saint Vic 20/1, Not really threatened in 6 starts in this sphere, including from a modest mark in handicap company. Hood on. Glimmer of promise but beaten long way on handicap debut; fitting a hood needs to help.
8th
1
8th (1) (20/1 -344%) Ivegotdapower
20
20/1(-344%)
(1) Ivegotdapower 20/1, Winning Irish pointer who left his hurdles debut form well behind when taking a match race at Carlisle in December. Off since and opening mark asks for more, though he is in good hands. 2-11 in Irish points; beat one rival in the second of two hurdle runs; off since December.
9th
2
9th (2) (17/2 -13%) Military Tycoon
8.5
17/2(-13%)
(2) Military Tycoon 17/2, Fairly useful Flat winner who has shown a bit in maiden hurdles for this yard this year and has the potential to do better now handicapping. Flat winner at 1m6f in 2023; modest for new yard; goes handicapping in an ordinary event.
15:10 Uttoxeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CRYSTAL GLANCE confirmed the promise that she displayed on debut when scoring at Bangor in May. An opening mark of 85 should be workable for the four-year-old and she edges out Ivegotdapower to be the pick in an open event. The latter also won on his most recent outing and may have more to offer, while George Mallory is next best.
It wasn't a deep race that CRYSTAL GLANCE won at Bangor during the spring but the assessor has by no means gone overboard and, very much the type to go improving, this well-bred filly makes plenty of appeal. She isn't the only runner in here with potential though as Gwennie May Jem and Military Tycoon and surely open to progress.
Alarm bells ring for Gwennie May Jem but there's guesswork involved and CRYSTAL GLANCE is taken to improve on her Bangor win in May
(11) Pep Talking 9/4, Lightly raced 6-y-o who improved on hurdles form when making winning chase debut at Huntingdon (16.5f) in March. Runner-up on 2 of his 4 starts thereafter, shaping as if the run was needed starting out for this yard at Southwell last month. Remains of interest. Chase winner in March and he looks worth another try at this trip; in the mix.
2
2
2nd (2) (40/1 -100%) Kelce
40
40/1(-100%)
(2) Kelce 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden for Colm Murphy. Shaped as if needing run after 16 months off at Fontwell on yard debut last month. Enough to prove sent chasing in first-time headgear. Still lightly raced but he needs a transformation on this switch to fences; headgear on.
3
1
3rd (1) (28/1 -75%) Cluain Aodha
28
28/1(-75%)
(1) Cluain Aodha 28/1, Fair handicap hurdler who was in contention when slipping up at Worcester 15 months ago. Not seen since but should make a chaser (Irish point winner). Conditions should be fine on chase debut but has fitness to prove after 458 days off.

4th (9) (4/1 +0%) Bridget Mary

(9) Bridget Mary 4/1, Point winner who bettered hurdles form at the first attempt over fences in handicap at Stratford last month despite making some mistakes. Capable of better still in this sphere providing she jumps better. Produced strong finish when scoring on chase debut at Stratford and she's respected up 4lb.

5th (6) (28/1 -133%) Song Of Earth
28
28/1(-133%)
(6) Song Of Earth 28/1, A three-time winner for Margaret Mullins in Ireland. Well below that level for this yard but at least made much more of an impact off reduced mark when third at Worcester in June. Signs of revival at Worcester in June and has claims if he can build on that after a break.

9/1(+44%)
(13) Dreamsundermyfeet 9/1, Has become disappointing and easy enough to look elsewhere. His last win was three years ago and he hasn't threatened this year; needs to find more.
7th

7th (8) (5/1 +44%) Paddy In The Caddy
5
5/1(+44%)
(8) Paddy In The Caddy 5/1, Lightly-raced winner over hurdles but he ended last season with a below-par fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, good) in April. Runner-up in an Irish point so can't be discounted now going chasing after breathing surgery. Hurdle win in March and had wind op in May; looks an interesting prospect for fences.

8th (5) (20/1 -122%) Boleyn Boy
20
20/1(-122%)
(5) Boleyn Boy 20/1, Modest winning hurdler. Not seen since taking a heavy fall at Fakenham almost a year ago. Best watched on chase bow. Only 1lb higher than for his hurdle win and needs a close look on his chase debut.
9th

9th (7) (25/1 -108%) Outside Adesa
25
25/1(-108%)
(7) Outside Adesa 25/1, Runner-up both outings in Irish points. Just modest form for Mitchell Hunt over hurdles last season. Makes chase/yard debut. Some promise over hurdles and runner-up in both his points so he should make a chaser.
10th
12
10th (12) (16/1 -60%) Eric Carmen
16
16/1(-60%)
(12) Eric Carmen 16/1, Irish point winner who capitalised on his falling mark over hurdles at Southwell (20.4f, heavy) in May. Showed more than on first 2 starts in this sphere when third of 13 at Southwell last month but reverted to his weak-finishing ways at Stratford since. Reached the frame in the last two of his four chase runs and he has each-way claims.
11th

11th (10) (9/1 +10%) Call Blue
9
9/1(+10%)
(10) Call Blue 9/1, Remains a maiden but she's returned from a lengthy absence with good placed efforts at Stratford/Newton Abbot over hurdles this summer. Shade below that level at Perth 36 days ago but her yard continue in fine form and respected now tackling larger obstacles. Well handicapped on best hurdles form and has claims if she takes to this new discipline.
12th

12th (3) (25/1 -79%) Blue Ridge Hill
25
25/1(-79%)
(3) Blue Ridge Hill 25/1, Runner-up all 3 starts in bumpers but only modest form since switched to hurdles, running poorly when last seen at Fontwell in May. Makes chase debut. Inconsistent ten-race maiden and comes with risks attached on chase debut; new headgear.

|PU| (4) (14/1 -75%) Minella Miracle
14
14/1(-75%)
(4) Minella Miracle 14/1, Modest in bumpers for Thomas Gallagher and has looked difficult over hurdles for this yard. Makes chase debut. Yard is in good form and he needs watching in market on handicap/chase debut.
15:45 Uttoxeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
BRIDGET MARY wasn't always the most fluent on her chasing bow, but that didn't stop her from winning at Stratford. The six-year-old ought to have learned plenty from that experience and, with the prospect of more to come, a 4lb rise might prove lenient. Blue Ridge Hill showed only moderate form over hurdles, but he's bred to appreciate the switch to fences and is of interest with cheekpieces applied for the first time. Others to note include Minella Miracle and Song Of Earth.
PEP TALKING failed to meet expectations after 4 months off at Southwell but she's worth another chance with that run under her belt. Bridget Mary made a winning chase bow at Stratford despite making mistakes so is entitled to progress, while Paddy In The Caddy makes most appeal of the chasing newcomers.
This looks tricky but it might be worth sticking with BRIDGET MARY who produced a strong finish when scoring on her recent chase debut.
(7) Norr's Cross 11/4, Failed to complete both starts between the flags but plenty to like about his second in maiden bumper at Tipperary in the spring. Sold from Roger McGrath £40,000 later in May and well worth considering for new stable. Near miss in a Tipperary bumper (2m2f) in May; sold for £40,000 soon after; sets standard.

11/4(+50%)
(4) Fresh Perspective 11/4, €62,000 buy who won only outing in points (Jan 2024). In good hands now contesting bumper and must be respected. Not sure what he achieved when winning a maiden point in January; betting to guide.

(6) Nathan's Run 9/1, £16,000 3-y-o, Nathaniel gelding. Half-brother to 5f/6f winner Lawn Boy. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1½m (stayed 2m) Glencadam Glory. Yard's bumper runners showing up well again and he's got to be respected. £16,000 3yo; half-brother to a winning sprinter in the US; yard does well in bumpers.

14/1(-17%)
(5) Little Dipper 14/1, Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful bumper winner/useful hurdler Gaitway and fairly useful hurdler Diamond Gait. Promising start in Ludlow bumper in April and entitled to improve. One to consider. Promising 4th at Ludlow in April when green off the bridle; open to improvement; e/w shout.
5th

5th (2) (28/1 -12%) Bells Of Ufford
28
28/1(-12%)
(2) Bells Of Ufford 28/1, The subject of some positive reports after landing the odds in a point bumper but, easy to back, fell some way short of expectations in Aintree bumper 5 months ago. Tailed off on rules debut in May; had won a point bumper in April but remains best watched.
6th

6th (11) (11/2 +31%) The Hawkstonian

(11) The Hawkstonian 11/2, €45,000 3-y-o, Jukebox Jury gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including one over jumps in Czech Republic. One to consider on debut. 45,000euros 3yo; half-brother to three winners; interesting newcomer.

(3) Fast Work 40/1, £28,000 3-y-o, Workforce gelding. Half-brother to 5f winner Daddies Diva. Dam maiden on Flat (stayed 1½m). £28,000 3yo; half-brother to a winning sprinter; likely a longer-term prospect.

9th (8) (33/1 -175%) River Rider
33
33/1(-175%)
(8) River Rider 33/1, 25/1, produced a more encouraging first effort than might have been anticipated when second first time up at Warwick in April, let down by inexperience after cruising up to the leaders in the straight. Entitled to improve for new trainer 6 months on. Travelled like a dream when 2nd on Warwick debut in April; sold £35,000 since; unexposed.

|RO| (9) (28/1 +15%) Rochester Brinks
28
28/1(+15%)
(9) Rochester Brinks 28/1, Pulled up only start in Irish points (Nov 2023). Likely to need more time. Pulled up in an Irish point last November; best watched on stable/rules debut.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Norr's Cross was just touched off at Tipperary on his Rules debut in May and, now in the care of David Pipe, he is likely to prove popular. Fergal O'Brien often does well in this type of contest so Nathan's Run warrants a market check, as does Jamie Snowden's Fresh Perspective, who won between the flags in January. However, a chance can be taken on BEAU GOLD. The 92,000-euro purchase is a half-brother to the smart Predators Gold, who won on his sole bumper appearance, and it would come as no surprise were the O'Neills' four-year-old to follow suit.
This looks an interesting bumper on paper with point winner FRESH PERSPECTIVE selected before any betting clues. Good cases can also be made for Norr's Cross, Nathan's Run, Beau Gold and Little Dipper.
Little Dipper and RIVER RIDER shaped well in one start last season and the selection is fancied to make a winning stable debut.
