1st (4)  (2.25/1 +63%)Get Up Mush |
2.25/1(+63%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Get Up Mush 2.25/1, Third on sole outing in Irish points and shaped well when filling the same position in novice hurdle at Carlisle (2m4f) on Rules debut. Went backwards from that effort at Warwick last time, but no surprise to see him get back on track. | |||
2nd (1)  (4/1 -14%)Cerendipity |
4/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Cerendipity 4/1, Showed fair form in bumpers last season and built on the promise of his hurdling debut when opening account in novice at Catterick (19.3f) last month. Respected with further improvement to come. | |||
3rd (8)  (3/1 -20%)Snowy Evening |
3/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Snowy Evening 3/1, Encouragement when runner-up in Carlisle bumper on Rules debut. After 8 months off (had wind op), in need of experience when fourth of 7 at Aintree (2m4f) on hurdling bow in November and again showed ability at Haydock (15.6f) last time. Shortlisted. | |||
4th (3)  (2.5/1 +69%)Ernest Gray |
2.5/1(+69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ernest Gray 2.5/1, Useful dual bumper winner (successful on debut in Ireland for Colin Bowe) but hasn't been able to match that level in 2 starts in novice hurdles so far, only fifth of 14 at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in December. It still remains early days, though. | |||
5th (5)  (40/1 -60%)Much Too Dear |
40/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Much Too Dear 40/1, Fair efforts on first 2 starts in bumpers before well held on latest outing at Warwick (2m, heavy) on New Year's Eve, though possibly unsuited by conditions. Up in trip as he makes hurdles debut. | |||
6th (7)  (33/1 +0%)Parelliroc |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Parelliroc 33/1, Didn't offer much in 2 bumpers last season but offered a bit more sent hurdling after 11 months off (had wind op) when fourth of 7 in a Catterick novice on New Year Day. Below that level back at the same C&D next time, though. | |||
7th (6)  (125/1 -346%)Old Durham Town |
125/1(-346%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Old Durham Town 125/1, Much improved from debut when runner-up in a Limerick maiden (19f) on last season's return and, after a below-par effort next time, back on track when third at Kilbeggan. However, off 17 month since and has left Henry de Bromhead. Visor on first time. |

1st (4)  (2.25/1 +18%)Gemirande |
2.25/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Gemirande 2.25/1, Ex-French recruit who is on the up for his current yard, emphatically landing 11-runner handicap chase at Southwell (20.4f) in December. Shaped as if still ahead of his mark when runner-up at Sandown last month and is highly respected again despite furhter 2 lb rise. | |||
2nd (1)  (8.5/1 -113%)War Lord |
8.5/1(-113%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) War Lord 8.5/1, Smart novice chaser last term, winning 3 times alongside a trio of in-frame efforts in Grade 1 company. Yet to fire this season, but looks feasiblt handicapped if getting back to form. | |||
3rd (3)  (1.5/1 +14%)Our Jet |
1.5/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Our Jet 1.5/1, Dual-winning hurdler last term went one better than one chasing debut when scoring in 10-runner handicap chase at Leicester (20.1f, good to soft) 38 days ago. 7 lb higher in the weights but appeals as the type to progress again. | |||
4th (2)  (3.33/1 +33%)Jetoile |
3.33/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Jetoile 3.33/1, Useful hurdler has looked at least as good in 4 starts over fences so far, having a hard race but finishing clear of the rest when second of 8 in handicap chase (9/4) at Kelso (17.1f, heavy) 37 days ago, Should go close again if that effort hasn't left a mark. | |||
5th (5)  (16/1 +0%)The King Of May |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) The King Of May 16/1, Won at Newcastle last April and was in the process of running respectably when taking a heavy final-fence tumble at Newcastle (20.1f, soft) 28 days ago. Best watched here. |

1st (2)  (0.62/1 +55%)Ruby Island |
0.62/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ruby Island 0.62/1, Promising mare who made a fine start over hurdles when landing 2m Ayr maiden in December, drawing clear, with the third winning next time. Promises to do better and holds leading claims. | |||
2nd (5)  (33/1 -65%)Hashtag Boum |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Hashtag Boum 33/1, Irish point winner led until after halfway but ultimately finished well held when tenth of 13 in novice hurdle at Catterick (19.3f, soft) on NH debut 38 days ago. Others preferred. | |||
3rd (1)  (2.25/1 -13%)Jane Du Berlais |
2.25/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Jane Du Berlais 2.25/1, No worse for her Uttoxeter slip up as she won a big-field 2m Lingfield mares' novice hurdle in December, still rough around the edges and closed down only when the race was in safe-keeping. More to come. | |||
4th (7)  (14/1 +22%)Mistral Nell |
14/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Mistral Nell 14/1, Won Fakenham bumper on debut but failed to confirm that form in 2 subsequent bumper outings. Better effort over hurdles when fifth of 10 in novice (12/1) at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) 72 days ago but perhaps will be more interesting in handicaps. | |||
5th (9)  (5.5/1 -38%)Pass The Love On |
5.5/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Pass The Love On 5.5/1, Showed fair form when second of 13 in bumper at Ludlow (15.8f, good to soft) on her last outing 13 months ago, finishing clear of rest. Should prove up to winning over hurdles and her yard can ready one after an absence. | |||
6th (10)  (250/1 -150%)Rhyme Scheme |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Rhyme Scheme 250/1, Regressive on the Flat and hasn't showed anything in pair of hurdles starts so far, including at Doncaster last week. | |||
7th (3)  (100/1 -257%)Classic Lady |
100/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Classic Lady 100/1, Winning pointer but achieved nothing making her belated Rules debut when only ninth of 11 in novice hurdle at this C&D (soft, 10/1) on NH debut 21 days ago. | |||
|U| (6)  (50/1 -150%)Just Dottie |
50/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Just Dottie 50/1, Well held in a bumper and 2 Flat maidens for Kaite Scott but showed some ability when fifth of 11 in novice hurdle at Ayr (16f, heavy) on yard/hurdles bow 33 days ago. Hood now applied. | |||
|PU| (4)  (150/1 -275%)Glamorous Icon |
150/1(-275%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Glamorous Icon 150/1, No encouragement when ninth of 16 in bumper (22/1) at Newcastle (16.9f, soft) on NH debut 40 days ago. Needs to leave that form well behind to hold any chance on hurdles debut. | |||
|PU| (11)  (150/1 -200%)Tangiers |
150/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Tangiers 150/1, In good hands but hasn't offered much in 4 starts in bumpers/over hurdles and is opposable once again. | |||
|PU| (8)  (150/1 -127%)Not In Kansas |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Not In Kansas 150/1, Mid-field in Hexham bumper last term and was far too free when sixth of 7 in novice at Ayr (20.4f, heavy, 50/1) on hurdles bow 26 days ago. Other preferred. |

3.5/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) City Chief 3.5/1, Useful winning hurdler who got off the mark in this sphere in 3-runner handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f) 19 days ago. Open to more progress. Considered. | |||
2nd (3)  (3.5/1 +0%)O'Toole |
3.5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) O'Toole 3.5/1, Progressed well over hurdles last term and created a good impression when going in at the first time of asking over fences in 9-runner handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f) 28 days ago. Has more to offer now up in trip. Not discounted. | |||
3rd (4)  (16/1 +36%)Bellatrixsa |
16/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Bellatrixsa 16/1, Progressive over hurdles (successful 4 times) and made an encouraging chasing debut when fourth of 5 in handicap at Chepstow (23.6f) 27 days ago. Open to improvement. | |||
|PU| (1)  (0.8/1 +0%)Ballygrifincottage |
0.8/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ballygrifincottage 0.8/1, Won all 3 completed starts in points and quickly made up into a useful staying hurdler last term. Comfortably saw off the talented Beauport when making a successful start to his chase career at Haydock in November. Tongue strap on 1st time. Exciting prospect. |

3.33/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Pyramid Place 3.33/1, Three-time winner as a juvenile and, having slipped to a handy mark, has got back on track with a pair of placed efforts this season. Pulled clear of the rest when runner-up at Fontwell on Boxing Day and he can give another good account. | |||
2nd (10)  (7/1 +36%)Universal Folly |
7/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Universal Folly 7/1, Fairly useful hurdler who scored twice at around 2m in 2021/22. Ran to a similar level on his seasonal/chase debut when runner-up at Doncaster in November (19.1f), but went backwards from that effort next time. Interesting returned to hurdling. | |||
3rd (6)  (9/1 +50%)Alnadam |
9/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Alnadam 9/1, Didn't go on as hoped over fences last season following a promising novice campaign, and well held on return at Exeter. Again showed little back over hurdles at Catterick 10 days ago, so has a bit to prove at present. | |||
4th (4)  (3.2/1 -60%)Haafapiece |
3.2/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Haafapiece 3.2/1, Won twice at this C&D last season and best effort of the current campaign when runner-up at Fakenham (2m4f) on New Year's Day. Well handicapped and can get back to winning ways at this venue. | |||
5th (9)  (5/1 +38%)Ladronne |
5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Ladronne 5/1, Has been going the right way over fences in recent months, landing back-to-back handicaps at this C&D and Catterick before running at least as well when finding only one too strong is his hat-trick bid at Newcastle. Respected back over hurdles. | |||
6th (12)  (7.5/1 -25%)Sheriff Garrett |
7.5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Sheriff Garrett 7.5/1, Having shaped encouragingly after 6 months off at this C&D in October, built on that promise at the second time of asking when getting back to winning ways at Newcastle (20.3f) on Boxing Day. Remains on a workable mark. | |||
7th (1)  (16/1 +43%)Aramax |
16/1(+43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aramax 16/1, Winner at the Cheltenham Festival back in 2019/20, but became increasingly hard to predict for Gordon Elliott and down the field in a trio of starts for Ben Haslam this term. | |||
8th (5)  (16/1 +11%)Bon Retour |
16/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bon Retour 16/1, Having dropped in the weights, took full advantage at Cartmel (22.1f) in August before following up at Hexham (20.1f) 10 days later. Shaped as if better for run at Bangor in November, but not seen since. First run for yard after leaving Nicky Richards. | |||
9th (2)  (28/1 +15%)Peaceful Sunday |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Peaceful Sunday 28/1, Winner of a maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse in February last year but failed to complete on his next 4 starts, including twice over fences this season. Got around back over hurdles last time, though didn't make much of an impact. | |||
10th (3)  (22/1 -38%)Daly Tiger |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Daly Tiger 22/1, Very smart chaser at best for Noel Meade and won a minor event over hurdles at Limerick last season. However, has lost his way since then, finishing well held in 3 chase starts for current connections. |

1.38/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Not That Fuisse 1.38/1, Useful chaser who completed his hat-trick in 5-runner hunter chase at Fakenham in April. Not at best on final outing last term but likely to bounce back on return. | |||
2nd (5)  (3/1 +40%)Moratorium |
3/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Moratorium 3/1, Failed to take to chasing for Gordon Elliott but ran creditably a couple of times in hunters last season and has done well in points since. Looks a player. | |||
3rd (4)  (4.5/1 +25%)Late Romantic |
4.5/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Late Romantic 4.5/1, Won veterans' handicap chase at Haydock in December 2020 but little to shout about since. Something to prove back from 11 months off. | |||
4th (3)  (14/1 +30%)Ballyrath |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ballyrath 14/1, Lost his way for Gary Hanmer after scoring in a handicap here on reappearance. Could get back to form now fresh for a new stable but he has something to find. | |||
5th (1)  (4.5/1 -50%)Ballymoy |
4.5/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ballymoy 4.5/1, Smart hurdler in 2018/19. Useful form in this sphere. Hasn't been seen under Rules since 2021 and was last of 3 finishers in a point in January but he's the class act in this field and is worth chancing. | |||
6th (6)  (100/1 -52%)Urbanist |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Urbanist 100/1, First run since leaving S. Michael Millar when broke blood vessel when pulled up in hunter chase at Cartmel (25.5f, soft, 66/1). Pulled up in a point last time and others are more persuasive. |

1.75/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Park Annonciade 1.75/1, €40,000 3-y-o, Masked Marvel gelding. Dam (c123/h115) hurdle/chase winner who stayed 27f. Noteworthy newcomer. | |||

7th (2)  (9/1 +10%)God's Own Getaway |
9/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) God's Own Getaway 9/1, Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Indian Hawk and bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Melekhov. Didn't show a great deal at Chepstow a couple of months ago but might have learned from it. | |||

4/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Intimate 4/1, Thrice raced in bumpers for Alain Couetil, most recently finished a ½-length second at Le Lion d'Angers 9 months ago.

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.
