1st (6) Branson Missouri (5.5/1 +50%)
Branson Missouri

5.5/1(+50%)
(6) Branson Missouri 5.5/1, Dual point winner who has achieved only modest form over hurdles so far, but it's possible this shorter trip will help having faded late on in a pair of handicaps around 2½m since joining this yard.
2
2nd (11) Click And Collect (7/1 +30%)
Click And Collect

7/1(+30%)
(11) Click And Collect 7/1, Yet to get his head in front. Did start this season with a pair of creditable in-frame at Hexham but he wasn't in the same form when well held over this C&D latest.
3
3rd (7) Zamani (8.5/1 +6%)
Zamani

8.5/1(+6%)
(7) Zamani 8.5/1, Fair winning hurdler. Below that level in 3 chase starts this autumn but his hurdle mark has come down as a result and he's well treated if a return to the smaller obstacles sparks a revival.

Amlovi

25/1(-39%)
(14) Amlovi 25/1, Has failed to complete over fences on his last 3 outings but he has reached the frame on his last 4 attempts over hurdles. On as workable mark if a return to timber sparks him back to life.

Lusitanien

8/1(+6%)
(4) Lusitanien 8/1, Latest Plumpton run rather disappointing but he had hinted at promise prior to that. Best run to date came on heavy so these conditions should be to his liking. Still early days with him.

Kilcaragh Boy

40/1(-21%)
(15) Kilcaragh Boy 40/1, Has won only once since 2016 and he hasn't been showing enough this term to suggest he's likely to end that losing run here from 5 lb out of handicap.
7th
7th (1) Heritier (50/1 -150%)
Heritier

50/1(-150%)
(1) Heritier 50/1, Bumper winner in France, but hasn't shown a great deal in 4 starts over hurdles on these shores, including a remote fifth in a C&D handicap last time. Now has first-time hood added to tongue tie.

8th (8) Rootless Tree (4/1 -60%)
Rootless Tree

4/1(-60%)
(8) Rootless Tree 4/1, Rated in the 120s at the start of his career but gave no indication that he's ready to take advantage of his falling mark on his C&D return in November.

9th (13) Good Impression (11/1 +21%)
Good Impression

11/1(+21%)
(13) Good Impression 11/1, Flat winner in 2019 and 2020. Went close to adding another win in that sphere over the summer and he made a respectable return to hurdles when fourth of 9 at Leicester (2m, soft) 29 days ago.

10th (10) Cold Shoulder (33/1 -230%)
Cold Shoulder

33/1(-230%)

12/1(+0%)
(3) King Ferdinand 12/1, Just minor promise so far and well held on his C&D handicap debut 7 weeks ago. Still early days but needs plenty of improvement.

Infiniti

3.5/1(+22%)
(12) Infiniti 3.5/1, 2m winner in this sphere and back on her game whe placed at Market Rasen and Leicester on her last starts. Has first run for a new yard here. One to consider.

No Reaction

100/1(-203%)
(5) No Reaction 100/1, Modest in bumpers in Ireland. No better in maiden hurdles, including for new yard latest, but she does at least stand a more realistic chance now handicapping.

(6) On The Platform 4.5/1, Modest winner at 20f over hurdles who has run with credit both runs over fences, fourth of 12 in handicap at Ludlow (20f, soft) 25 days ago. May do better still, and he's firmly in the picture.

Light Flicker

3/1(+10%)
(2) Light Flicker 3/1, Posted a career best when winning 3m handicap chase at Market Rasen 29 days ago. C&D winner too, so he merits serious consideration despie 5 lb rise.

Dr Des

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.
