1	1 1st (1) (11/8 +54%) Klycot	1.375 11/8(+54%)	(1) Klycot 11/8, Improved again, did best of those up with the pace when second beaten 7l in Finale Juvenile Hurdle (Grade 2) at Chepstow latest; effective around 2m, acts on Hy, S; progressive and latest form the best on offer. Runner-up in Grade 2 at Chepstow and leading claims now back down in grade under penalty.
2	6 2nd (6) (17/2 -89%) Cloaks Of Gold	8.5 17/2(-89%)	(6) Cloaks Of Gold 17/2, Promising debut, strong at the finish when winning a maiden hurdle at Warwick by 3 1/2l. Effective at 2m on good to soft but more needed under a penalty. Hurdle debut win at Warwick; now takes on males but could have more to offer in this code.
3	10 3rd (10) (7/2 -40%) My Kinda Ghaiy	3.5 7/2(-40%)	(10) My Kinda Ghaiy 7/2, Promising debut when second beaten 4 1/4l in a juvenile hurdle at Taunton latest; effective around 2m on G; improvement likely. Promising second on last month's hurdle debut at Taunton and is in good hands to progress.
4	9 4th (9) (200/1 -300%) Knighton	200 200/1(-300%)	(9) Knighton 200/1, Stable won this last year. Too keen and poor on hurdles debut when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Doncaster. Wears a hood for the first time and has a bit to prove for now. Pulled hard when tailed off on hurdle debut; a hood goes on; promise on sole Flat start.
5th	7 5th (7) (50/1 -52%) Dontelimurnamepike	50 50/1(-52%)	(7) Dontelimurnamepike 50/1, Improved from debut but was comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Doncaster last time. Effective at 2m1f on good to soft and looks one to do better in handicaps. Behind when running out two out on debut in November and soundly beaten at 50-1 since.
6th	4 6th (4) (50/1 -52%) Canavan	50 50/1(-52%)	(4) Canavan 50/1, Improved for debut experience but was poorly placed at a sharp track when comfortably held in a 4yo hurdle at Musselburgh last time. Effective at 2m and may do better in handicaps. Ran okay at Musselburgh on second hurdle start but others have achieved considerably more.
7th	3 7th (3) (40/1 -21%) Ashdown Forest	40 40/1(-21%)	(3) Ashdown Forest 40/1, Lit up by first-time blinkers when beaten in a 4yo hurdle at Musselburgh last time. The trainer is in form, and he looks the type to do better in handicaps. Fair maiden on the Flat but soundly beaten on both starts in this code.
8th	5 8th (5) (33/1 +50%) Captain Connor	33 33/1(+50%)	(5) Captain Connor 33/1, Made a promising debut when fourth, beaten 32l in a juvenile hurdle at Catterick. Effective at 2m on good to soft and likely to want further over hurdles. Displayed some promise in sole bumper but well beaten on last month's hurdle debut.
9th	2 9th (2) (15/8 +6%) Vivre Le Reve	1.875 15/8(+6%)	(2) Vivre Le Reve 15/8, £100,000 Pether's Moon gelding; brother to Solomoon, a winner at 2m; dam very useful at 12f; joined a top trainer and needs respecting on debut. Won in good style in France on debut then sold for £100,000; could have a big say.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (250/1 -150%) Twilight Safari	250 250/1(-150%)	(12) Twilight Safari 250/1, Poor hurdles debut when well beaten in a juvenile hurdle here last time. Wears a hood for the first time and looks a type to do better in low-level handicaps. Regressive maiden on the Flat and tailed off at 50-1 over C&D on last month's hurdle debut.

12:20 Wetherby (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

My Kinda Ghaiy showed ability when second on his jumping bow at Taunton and is likely to have more to offer, but the one that appeals most is KLYCOT. The son of The Grey Gatsby progressed from his Exeter success to only find one too good in Grade 2 company at Chepstow last time and can take advantage dropping in grade. Warwick scorer Cloaks Of Gold is another to keep an eye on.

Grade 2 runner-up Klycot holds leading claims now back down in grade but VIVRE LE REVE impressed on his sole start in France.

1	2 1st (2) (1/7 +61%) Starmount	0.142857 1/7(+61%)	(2) Starmount 1/7, Made mistakes but ran to form when fourth, beaten 20l, in the Formby Novices' Hurdle (Grade 1) at Aintree; trainer in form; effective over 2m on soft ground and looks the one to beat. Won by 5l over C&D on hurdle debut then found Grade 1 company too much; leading candidate.
2	1 2nd (1) (5/2 +9%) Kaka's Cousin	2.5 5/2(+9%)	(1) Kaka's Cousin 5/2, Fair debut over hurdles when winning a maiden hurdle at Catterick by 2 1/4l last time; effective over 2m3f on good ground; more to come although the drop in trip may not suit. Point runner-up who won on hurdle debut; drops in trip but respected nevertheless.
3	11 3rd (11) (50/1 -100%) William Yeats	50 50/1(-100%)	(11) William Yeats 50/1, Below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Kelso last time; effective over 2m and handles any ground; may show more when handicapping. Bumper winner; not at same level yet over hurdles but might be able to run into a place.
4	9 4th (9) (80/1 -60%) Largy Meadow	80 80/1(-60%)	(9) Largy Meadow 80/1, Too keen but shaped better than the result when well beaten in a maiden hurdle at Ayr; hood applied for the first time; effective over 2m on good ground; needs to settle better. Runner-up in sole bumper then merely mid-division on hurdle debut; may be best watched.
5th	5 5th (5) (80/1 +60%) Je Mr Dawson	80 80/1(+60%)	(5) Je Mr Dawson 80/1, Too keen and outpaced when unsuited by a drop in trip in a novice hurdle at Carlisle last time; wears a tongue-tie for the first time; can improve when ridden more positively over further. Well beaten on all three starts; dramatic improvement needed now in a tongue-tie.
6th	4 6th (4) (28/1 -100%) Hourman	28 28/1(-100%)	(4) Hourman 28/1, Showed promise when fourth, beaten 3/4l, in a bumper at Hexham on debut; returning from a break; effective over 2m on good ground; bumper form has been franked over hurdles and more to come. Ran well in sole bumper and this half-brother to 2 h'dle winners could give a good account.
7th	10 7th (10) (22/1 -10%) Laristote	22 22/1(-10%)	(10) Laristote 22/1, Promising debut under rules when third, beaten 12l, in a maiden bumper at Sedgefield; off a short break; effective over 2m1f on soft ground; unlucky in a point and should be competitive now hurdling. Has shown some promise in a point and a bumper and he's an each-way possible.
8th	8 8th (8) (66/1 +34%) Knockeranna Rose	66 66/1(+34%)	(8) Knockeranna Rose 66/1, Below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Kelso last time; effective over 2m on a sound surface; likely to be better suited to handicaps. Went close in Carlisle bumper in October but soundly beaten on both hurdle starts.
12	12 \|PU\| (12) (80/1 -220%) Big Love	80 80/1(-220%)	(12) Big Love 80/1, Made mistakes and was green on a poor debut when fourth, beaten 28l, in a juvenile hurdle at Doncaster; off a short break; may need more time to develop over hurdles. Hasn't posed a serious threat when fourth in a junior bumper and a juvenile hurdle.
7	7 \|PU\| (7) (80/1 -142%) Jungle Jet	80 80/1(-142%)	(7) Jungle Jet 80/1, Below his point form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle at Hexham last time; returning from a long layoff and has undergone a wind operation; effective at 3m in points; should improve in handicaps. Tailed off last March on sole h'dle start; interesting to see what the market makes of him.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (200/1 -100%) Bogha Baiste	200 200/1(-100%)	(3) Bogha Baiste 200/1, Ran to a similar level as on debut when well beaten in a bumper at Catterick last time; off a short break; effective over 2m on good ground and may do better now switched to hurdles. Ability in bumpers but not enough to suggest he'll be making an impact on hurdle debut.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (200/1 +0%) Johnny Two Jets	200 200/1(+0%)	(6) Johnny Two Jets 200/1, Moderate debut when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle at Ayr most recently; type who may do better once tackling handicaps. Big odds and well beaten at Ayr in a bumper and maiden hurdle.

12:50 Wetherby (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Point-to-point winner STARMOUNT made a deep impression when scoring over C&D on his Rules debut prior to being out of his depth when only fourth in the Formby at Aintree on Boxing Day. Ben Pauling's charge is likely to appreciate his sights being lowered and can return to winning ways. Kaka's Cousin was successful on his introduction at Catterick last month and looks the main danger, while Hourman can fight it out for the places.

Having impressed over C&D on his hurdle debut, STARMOUNT can capitalise on the drop back in grade. Kaka's Cousin is the danger.

Effective from 2m3f to 3m and handles soft and good ground; respected off his new mark. Both chase wins have been here; up 3lb for latest; not ruled out but hard to be confident..
3	2 3rd (2) (80/1 -21%) Johnson's Blue	80 80/1(-21%)	(2) Johnson's Blue 80/1, Outpaced and unsuited by the drop in trip, possibly finding the ground on the soft side when well beaten in a handicap chase at Ayr last time. Effective over 2m4f but best at 3m on decent ground; the handicapper is easing his mark. Multiple staying hurdle winner; handy mark if revived but has a bit to prove at present..
4	3 4th (3) (7/1 -40%) Fine Casting	7 7/1(-40%)	(3) Fine Casting 7/1, Eased after a bad error and something appeared amiss when pulled up in a handicap chase last time.

1	1 \|F\| (1) (10/11 +64%) Pleasington	0.909091 10/11(+64%)	(1) Pleasington 10/11, Outpaced but flew home, improved when second beaten 4l in a handicap chase at Newbury latest; trainer in form; effective around 2m, acts with cut; longer trip looks a plus. Two-time heavy-ground hurdle; improving and looks a big player back up in trip..
8	8 \|PU\| (8) (12/1 -33%) Ned Tanner	12 12/1(-33%)	(8) Ned Tanner 12/1, Returned to form down in grade off a reduced mark when third, beaten 5 1/4l in a handicap chase at Haydock last time.

13:20 Wetherby (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Pleasington returned to form when filling the runner-up spot in this grade at Newbury last time and was kindly dropped 1lb, so he is one to take seriously. Doyouknowwhatimean hit the woodwork at Uttoxeter and is likely to remain competitive, but it may pay to side with GENOIS. The veteran went in by just under two lengths in this class over track and trip on Boxing Day and if in similar form, he could be the one to beat.

Several of these can have cases made but PLEASINGTON (nap) may still have his best days ahead and is taken to defy top weight.

Made all at Uttoxeter then held in third there next time, but today's conditions may help.
2	2 2nd (2) (15/8 +73%) Forest Blaze	1.875 15/8(+73%)	(2) Forest Blaze 15/8, Outpaced but ran to form when 6 1/4l third in a handicap hurdle at Ayr last time; visor first time; effective over 2m4f, acts on heavy and good to soft; arrives in good form. Placed in cheekpieces on last two starts; in the mix if taking to the first-time visor.
3	6 3rd (6) (20/1 -150%) Ionity	20 20/1(-150%)	(6) Ionity 20/1, Ran to form but flattened out late after forcing a strong pace when 8l third in a handicap hurdle at Ffos Las last time; off a long absence; effective around 2m4f, handles soft ground; can go well again. Returns from absence but is on a competitive mark if retaining his ability; watch market.
4	11 4th (11) (20/1 +0%) Goguenard	20 20/1(+0%)	(11) Goguenard 20/1, Poor effort when comfortably held in a handicap hurdle at Leicester last time; off a short break; effective 2m3f–3m, prefers soft ground; likely to need a stronger test. Inconsistent and a return to form is needed but he won this race two years ago.
5th	9 5th (9) (10/1 +38%) Ruler Legend	10 10/1(+38%)	(9) Ruler Legend 10/1, Didn't get home despite a big drop in trip when well held in a handicap hurdle at Newcastle last time; effective at 2m on a sound surface; needs to bounce back. Hasn't shone on last few starts; handy mark to work with on first run for new yard.
6th	1 6th (1) (10/1 +17%) Caramelo Rapido	10 10/1(+17%)	(1) Caramelo Rapido 10/1, Bit below form when down the field in a handicap hurdle at Catterick last time; effective around 2m, stamina unproven over further, acts on good to soft and good; may need a drop in trip.

7th	7 7th (7) (50/1 -257%) Knacker Trapper	50 50/1(-257%)	(7) Knacker Trapper 50/1, Made mistakes in cheekpieces when well held in a handicap hurdle at Market Rasen last time; returning from a long layoff; effective around 2m4f with some cut; might need this run. Placed twice in a row in autumn 2024 and well treated on that form but slim pickings since.
8th	4 8th (4) (20/1 -43%) Suspected	20 20/1(-43%)	(4) Suspected 20/1, Ran to form when fourth beaten 14l in a maiden hurdle at Kelso last time; effective at 2m, acts on soft and good; bumper win form looks weak but may improve now handicapping.

12	12 \|PU\| (12) (6/1 -20%) Toby Two Scoops	6 6/1(-20%)	(12) Toby Two Scoops 6/1, Every chance and ran to form when 4l third in a handicap hurdle here last time; effective at 2m, acts on soft and good; in good form since going handicapping. 4yo who stays well on the Flat and today's extra distance could be right up his street.
14	14 \|PU\| (14) (9/2 +44%) Wor Lad	4.5 9/2(+44%)	(14) Wor Lad 9/2, Raced lazily and needed the run when 8l third in a handicap hurdle at Carlisle last time; effective at 2m1f, acts on good to soft; fair mark on maiden form and should improve from latest outing. Third of ten off this lowly mark at Carlisle on handicap debut; might not be far away.

Placed in a 3m point and open to improvement now up in trip on handicap debut.
16	16 \|PU\| (16) (18/1 +45%) Perfect Arch	18 18/1(+45%)	(16) Perfect Arch 18/1, Bit below form when 22l third in a handicap hurdle at Doncaster last time; effective 2m–2m4f on soft and good; exposed maiden but capable of running respectably. Produced a couple of fair performances in final third of last year but remains a maiden.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (50/1 -150%) Reel Rosie	50 50/1(-150%)	(5) Reel Rosie 50/1, Did plenty early in new headgear combination when 23l third in a handicap hurdle at Sedgefield last time; off a short break; effective 2m–2m4f, acts on soft and good; needs more to win. Sedgefield in November was a step back in the right direction but she needs another today.

13:55 Wetherby (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow

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

An open contest on paper in which the vote goes to SWEEPER SYSTEM. Having shown relatively little on his first two starts over hurdles, he improved when finishing third at Southwell and the rise in distance on handicap debut gives him every chance of taking another step in the right direction. Forest Blaze's recent efforts at Ayr must bring him into calculations, especially with a first-time visor applied. Others for the shortlist are Ionity, Eric Carmen and Toby Two Scoops.

The 4yo TOBY TWO SCOOPS stays well on the Flat and could appreciate this step up in trip. The in-form Forest Blaze is second pick.

Won over 2m4f in November on reappearance then didn't see out 3m last time; back in trip.
2	5 2nd (5) (13/2 -18%) Taxus Baccata	6.5 13/2(-18%)	(5) Taxus Baccata 13/2, Made too much use of when well beaten in a handicap hurdle at Doncaster last time; tongue-tie applied for the first time and also had a wind operation; back from a short break; effective at 2m4f on good ground and now returns to fences. A return to form is needed but she's on a handy mark and has had a wind op; check betting.

Completed hat-trick on chase debut; weakened quickly next time but has had wind op since.

Makes chase debut on second run back from long absence; chance if tapping into old ability.

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

SHE IS FOR ME BOYS was disappointing when sent off favourite at Cheltenham last month having weakened quickly. A subsequent wind operation suggests the issue has been sorted and a repeat of her Kempton victory on chase debut in November can see her back to winning ways. Celestial Fashion didn't appear to stay 3m at Ayr last time so the drop back in trip can see her in a better light. Taxus Baccata appeals most of the remainder.

Preference is for TAXUS BACCATA, who has a handy mark to work with following a stable switch and wind op. Dontyawantme is feared.

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

Wee Alki pulled up at Hexham last time and the seven-year-old, who had won at the same venue the time before, is entitled to bounce back to form. However, LA HIGUERA is still learning his trade but he has still posted a trio of solid efforts in handicaps. Toby Lawes' gelding is 2lb well-in following a Uttoxeter third on New Year's Eve, as the winner of that contest has scored twice since and runs in the second division, and any further improvement could allow him to break the maiden tag. Bollin Matilda is also noted.

It could be worth siding with WEE ALKI, who won on his penultimate start. Bollin Matilda was a close third at Musselburgh last time.

15:40 Wetherby (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

There has been no stopping BOLLIN THOU since winning at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. Nick Scholfield's charge then bolted up at Hereford before having no issues with a drop in trip at Lingfield and, despite having to shoulder a double penalty, it might only be the quick turnaround that has the potential to halt his run. Musselburgh scorer You Did has few miles on the clock and remains capable of better, whilst Clondaw Royale didn't run too badly at Haydock latest and continues to edge down the handicap.

The presence of BOLLIN THOU, who has looked a handicap blot while completing a hat-trick, means we are not going to look beyond him.
