16/1(+0%)
(4) Ghasham 16/1, Fairly useful 10f Flat winner for Joseph O'Brien. Well held on yard debut when eighth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract 52 days ago so needs a big step forward on his hurdling bow.
(2) (25/1 +0%) Faded Fantasy

(14) (40/1 +0%) Toute Chic
40/1(+0%)

(8) (66/1 +0%) Tropical Talent
66/1(+0%)
(8) Tropical Talent 66/1, Fair juvenile maiden on the Flat but well below par both runs for his current yard in April. Off 7 months ahead of his hurdling bow with lots to prove.

LTO Selection:
12:20 Warwick Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(3) Ballyhigh 1/1, £100,000 4-y-o, Canford Cliffs gelding. Dam, maiden, is closely related to Musidora/Nassau Stakes winner Zahrat Dubai. Won only start in Irish points (Oct 2021) so he merits serious consideration.
(9) (4.5/1 +0%) Hercules Morse
4.5/1(+0%)
(9) Hercules Morse 4.5/1, Blue Bresil gelding who made a promising start when third of 12 in novice at Worcester (20f, 16/1) on NH debut 42 days ago. Open to improvement. Considered.
(12) (5/1 -11%) Peace Of Rome
5/1(-11%)
(12) Peace Of Rome 5/1, Fair form shown when runner-up in bumpers at Warwick in April and at Lingfield last month. Makes hurdles debut now up considerably in distance and one to consider.
(6) (11/1 +0%) Churchills Boy
11/1(+0%)
(6) Churchills Boy 11/1, Point bumper winner who created a good impression when landing Chepstow bumper in February. Pulled up in novice at Lingfield (19.5f, 14/1) on hurdles bow 23 days ago so has a bit to prove now.
(16) (12/1 +0%) Sister Saint
12/1(+0%)
(16) Sister Saint 12/1, Had a wind op before coming in ninth of 14 in novice at Exeter (18.5f, 12/1) on his hurdles bow 24 days ago. In excellent hands but needs to take a big step forward.
(1) (18/1 +0%) Also Known As
18/1(+0%)
(1) Also Known As 18/1, Winning pointer but was well beaten when unseating rider last in novice hurdle at Exeter (21.6f, 16/1) on NH debut 21 days ago. Significantly more is required.
(2) (20/1 +0%) Ballinoulart
20/1(+0%)
(2) Ballinoulart 20/1, £14,000 4-y-o, Court Cave gelding. Dam unraced. Made the frame both starts in Irish points (latest May 15) so he needs considering.
(8) (25/1 +0%) Commodore Miller
25/1(+0%)
(8) Commodore Miller 25/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler at his best but he was pulled up in handicap at Fakenham in May on his final run for Nicky Henderson. Has something to prove for his new yard.
(13) (28/1 +0%) Prince Des Malvaux
28/1(+0%)
(13) Prince Des Malvaux 28/1, Maiden Irish pointer who took a step forward on his return when fifth of 16 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f) 20 days ago. This longer trip is a plus so in the mix.
(7) (50/1 +0%) Cloudy Hills
50/1(+0%)
(7) Cloudy Hills 50/1, No impact in a bumper and pair of maiden hurdle in the spring. Others are much preferred.
(10) (66/1 +18%) Jigginstown King
66/1(+18%)
(10) Jigginstown King 66/1, Fourth in hunter chase at Punchestown (21f) on NH debut in April for John Hanlon. Tongue tied when well-held eighth in Uttoxeter maiden hurdle last month. Lots more is needed for his new handler.
(14) (80/1 +20%) Rare Bear
80/1(+20%)
(14) Rare Bear 80/1, Schiaparelli gelding. Dam fair 2½m-23f chase winner. Market can prove a good guide.
(5) (150/1 +0%) Best Mate Dave
150/1(+0%)
(5) Best Mate Dave 150/1, Didn't show much in a pair of bumpers in the spring and only eleventh of 12 in novice at Uttoxeter (19.9f, 250/1) on hurdles bow 18 days ago.
(15) (150/1 +0%) Sabaarelli
150/1(+0%)
(15) Sabaarelli 150/1, No promise shown in all her three bumpers so she goes hurdling with lots to find.
(4) (250/1 +0%) Beannaigh Do
250/1(+0%)
(4) Beannaigh Do 250/1, Made frame sole start in Irish points but well held in bumper and two maiden hurdles under Rules. Easy to look elsewhere.
(17) (250/1 +0%) Whiskey Times
250/1(+0%)
(17) Whiskey Times 250/1, 300/1, tenth in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f) on NH debut 21 months ago. Very hard to warm to on her comeback run.
LTO Selection:
12:50 Warwick Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(7) Baddesley 3.33/1, Off the mark over hurdles at the seventh attempt when making virtually all the running in a Plumpton (20.5f) handicap. 4 lb rise fair enough but this demands a clear career-best.
(2) (4/1 +20%) Haas Boy
4/1(+20%)
(2) Haas Boy 4/1, Fair form in bumpers and made a smooth transition to hurdling when winning maiden at Huntingdon (15.8f) in March. Subsequent second to Not What It Seems (twice a winner again since) in Sedgefield novice was no backward step and merits respect now handicapping in a first-time tongue strap.
(9) (4.5/1 -13%) Wavering Down
4.5/1(-13%)
(9) Wavering Down 4.5/1, Proved better than ever when striking on return at Newton Abbot (21.5f) in October and wasn't disgraced when third at Fontwell next time. Eased slightly in class here and he's entitled to have a say in the finish.
(6) (5/1 -25%) Northern Poet
5/1(-25%)
(6) Northern Poet 5/1, Bumper winner who opened his hurdles account back from an 18-month absence in a 20.5f Plumpton novice. On a fair mark back in handicap company and he has to be high on the shortlist.
(4) (8/1 +0%) Charlie's Glance
8/1(+0%)
(4) Charlie's Glance 8/1, Newbury bumper winner who justified strong support on handicap debut at Worcester in April. Fair efforts both starts since returning to action last month but will need to raise his game in order to play a leading role here.
(8) (9/1 +0%) Ballycamus
9/1(+0%)
(8) Ballycamus 9/1, Point winner who made a successful handicap debut over 2¾m at Hereford on final start of last season. Bad mistake 2 out proved costly on return at Fontwell but he's probably no more than averagely-treated in any case.
(1) (18/1 -13%) Ernesto
18/1(-13%)
(1) Ernesto 18/1, Capitalised on a drop in grade when resuming winning ways at Hereford (25.5f) in October. Too much on his plate in a Class 2 Cheltenham handicap next time (reportedly broke a blood vessel) and this is more realistic but others preferred all the same.
(3) (22/1 -10%) Crossing The Bar
22/1(-10%)
(3) Crossing The Bar 22/1, Fairly useful Flat winner who came good at the fourth time of asking in this sphere at Ffos Las (2½m) in February. However, poor efforts since, including on return/debut for new yard at Worcester. Tongue strap applied.
(5) (28/1 -27%) Betty's Banjo
28/1(-27%)
(5) Betty's Banjo 28/1, Won sole outing in Irish points and left hurdling debut form behind when landing an 8-runner novice at Uttoxeter (2½m) in May. Showed nothing back from a break on last month's handicap bow at Exeter, however.
(10) (40/1 +0%) Deer Hunter
40/1(+0%)
(10) Deer Hunter 40/1, Showed ability in this sphere for Harry Whittington during early stages of 2020/21 campaign but he was well held on debut for this yard in an AW bumper when last seen 23 months ago.
LTO Selection:
13:25 Warwick Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(3) Tarahumara 0.83/1, Built on promising hurdling bow when easily taking 14-runner novice at Chepstow (16f, good, 9/4) in April. Looks sure to progress and holds obvious claims on switch to chasing.
(2) (3.33/1 +0%) Chanceux
3.33/1(+0%)
(2) Chanceux 3.33/1, Dual novice hurdle winner (at around 2m) last winter who was pulled up on 2 of his 3 starts in handicaps after, quickish ground possibly against him at Fontwell in March. May have needed last month's return and worth a check in the market on chase debut.
(1) (5/1 +0%) Cotton End
5/1(+0%)
(1) Cotton End 5/1, Prolific in handicap hurdles in 2020-21, winning 5 times and shaped well after 10 months off in Hereford handicap in October. Faced a stiff task on chase debut at Huntingdon since but was somewhat disappointing nonetheless.
(4) (12/1 +0%) Blazer's Mill
12/1(+0%)
(4) Blazer's Mill 12/1, Went backwards for Olly Murphy after scoring over hurdles in 2020 and no signs of revival for new yard at Southwell last month, finishing well-beaten third of 5 in handicap chase (15.8f, good). Tongue strap on first time/cheekpieces back on.
(5) (18/1 +0%) Tremwedge
18/1(+0%)
(5) Tremwedge 18/1, Fair maiden hurdler for Alan King but has lost his form, well beaten in 4 runs over fences for current trainer this season. 1 lb out of the handicap.
LTO Selection:
14:00 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Manintheshadows 2.25/1, Pulled up on sole start in this sphere at Uttoxeter last December but winner of all 3 completed starts over hurdles since, including on return at Hereford (25.5f). Big player if his jumping passes the test at the second attempt over fences.
(3) (4.5/1 +0%) Ballaquane
4.5/1(+0%)
(3) Ballaquane 4.5/1, Bettered hurdles form at the first attempt over fences when landing a 4-runner Fontwell handicap (21.6f) on return last month. 3 lb rise fair enough but he doesn't look entirely straightforward and is probably worth taking on this time.
(7) (7.5/1 +0%) Motown Lake
7.5/1(+0%)
(7) Motown Lake 7.5/1, Successful in handicap chases at Uttoxeter and Ffos Las earlier this year. Good run of form came to a halt when only sixth behind High Counsel at Southwell in July but leading claims if able to bounce back following a break.
(8) (8/1 +0%) High Counsel
8/1(+0%)
(8) High Counsel 8/1, Veteran who has shown there's plenty of life in him this season, scoring at Warwick in May and Southwell in July. Good third ina Uttoxeter handicap (3m) following a break and needs considering off 1 lb lower here.
(1) (8/1 +0%) Lyrical Genius
8/1(+0%)
(1) Lyrical Genius 8/1, Point/bumper winner who looked all stamina as he made a winning hurdles debut in 21f Doncaster novice last November. However, little impact in 4 subsequent starts, including on chase debut following a wind op at Hereford.
(5) (9/1 -6%) Pilot Show
9/1(-6%)
(5) Pilot Show 9/1, Point winner who shaped up well in a couple of races over hurdles last term. However, efforts so far this season have lacked spark and hopes now pinned on the switch to fences sparking an upturn.
(2) (9/1 -6%) Guillemot
9/1(-6%)
(2) Guillemot 9/1, Scored over hurdles at Ascot in impressive fashion in February but that effort is bookmarked with non-completions and he hasn't shown much of an aptitude for this game so far.
(6) (9/1 +0%) Versatility
9/1(+0%)
(6) Versatility 9/1, Temperamental sort who continues out of sorts and his latest effort at Stratford was particularly poor. Now tried in a tongue strap.
(9) (50/1 +0%) Puppet Warrior
50/1(+0%)
(9) Puppet Warrior 50/1, Some decent bits and pieces of form to his name but records stands at 0-23 overall and he was well held at Chepstow last month.
LTO Selection:
14:30 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Galia Des Liteaux 1.1/1, A lightly-raced winner over hurdles who looked something out of the ordinary when making a winning chasing debut in impressive fashion at Bangor (17.4f) 29 days ago. Exciting prospect who can concede weight all round.
(4) (5/1 +0%) Kissesforkatie
5/1(+0%)
(4) Kissesforkatie 5/1, Useful handicap hurdler who confirmed promise of her chasing debut when comfortably landing the odds in 3-runner novice at Fontwell (19.5f) 34 days ago. Remains open to improvement in this sphere.
(6) (6/1 +0%) Tweed Skirt
6/1(+0%)
(6) Tweed Skirt 6/1, Fair bumper/hurdles winner who proved a different proposition sent chasing (in a tongue strap) after 7 months off when impressive winner of 5-runner handicap at Kempton (20.5f) 31 days ago. That wasn't much of a race but she's open to plenty of improvement.
(5) (8/1 +0%) Panic Attack
8/1(+0%)
(5) Panic Attack 8/1, All the better for a recent outing when making all in 3-runner novice chase at Huntingdon (19.9f, good to soft) on debut over fences 19 days ago. This is much tougher but she merits respect nonetheless.
(2) (9/1 -6%) Eureka Creek
9/1(-6%)
(2) Eureka Creek 9/1, Successful Irish pointer/hurdler who made an impressive winning start to life over fences on the back of a breathing operation in 3-runner handicap at Uttoxeter (22.5f) 26 days ago, eased right down having led by 10 lengths at last. Sure to go on to better things.
(3) (18/1 +0%) Farne
18/1(+0%)
(3) Farne 18/1, Fairly useful over hurdles and matched that form over fences last season, shaping best when second of 5 in 3m handicap at this course on final outing. Return to shorter will suit but reappears in a tough race.
LTO Selection:
15:00 Warwick Novices Chase (Class 1) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(2) Captain Teague 1/1, €70,000 3-y-o, Doyen gelding. Closely related to a winner, and half-brother to useful hurdler/very smart chaser Sky Pirate and fair hurdler/useful chaser Thecraicisninety, stays 2½m. Successful sole outing in Irish points (Feb 13).
(6) (3.5/1 +0%) Samazul
3.5/1(+0%)
(6) Samazul 3.5/1, Half-brother to numerous winners and showed some ability when seventh in a good race at Ascot on debut. Open to improvement and not discounted.
(1) (4/1 -14%) Asta La Pasta
4/1(-14%)
(1) Asta La Pasta 4/1, Walk In The Park gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/winning chaser Cup Final. Dam (h162) 2¼m-3m hurdle winner, including of 4 Grade 1 events. Makes lots of appeal on paper.
(5) (10/1 -11%) Much Too Dear
10/1(-11%)
(5) Much Too Dear 10/1, Built on an encouraging debut when runner-up in a C&D bumper 7 months ago and, if sufficiently tuned up, he could be thereabouts on return.
(3) (18/1 +10%) Diamond Twin
18/1(+10%)
(3) Diamond Twin 18/1, £25,000 3-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/chaser Crealion and fair French chaser Lion Toto. Trainer’s newcomers command respect.
(4) (25/1 +24%) Diesel Line
25/1(+24%)
(4) Diesel Line 25/1, €10,000 3-y-o, Malinas gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) Casino Markets. Wears tongue strap.
(10) (33/1 +0%) Crazy Mary
33/1(+0%)
(10) Crazy Mary 33/1, Blue Bresil mare. Dam (h85) maiden hurdler (stayed 2½m). Worth a market check.
(8) (66/1 +0%) Autumn Blaze
66/1(+0%)
(8) Autumn Blaze 66/1, Black Sam Bellamy filly. Dam, point winner, half-sister to ungenuine but fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Its Crucial.
(9) (66/1 +0%) Cassowary
66/1(+0%)
(9) Cassowary 66/1, Cheap purchase who failed to beat a rival on debut at Chepstow 7 months ago. Tried in cheekpieces now but unlikely to feature.

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.
