14:00 Wetherby Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	12 1st (12) (12/1 +25%) Sir Galahad	12 12/1(+25%)	(12) Sir Galahad 12/1, Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1½m), running respectably while showing an awkward side when fifth of 7 in handicap at Newmarket (12f, good to firm) back in June. Sold from James Ferguson 25,000 gns the following month and has joined a top jumps yard. Yard also saddles All Well And Good. Fair maiden on the Flat; has joined a good yard for hurdle career (one of two for stable).
2	8 2nd (8) (5/1 +0%) Sleeping Late	5 5/1(+0%)	(8) Sleeping Late 5/1, Shaped with encouragement when fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Doncaster on debut and ran to a similar level despite jumping better when third at Huntingdon (15.8f, good) earlier this month. Appeals as the type to do better once tackling handicaps over further. Has made the frame on both starts and has the best hurdle form in the line-up; respected.
3	9 3rd (9) (12/1 +0%) Solent Gateway	12 12/1(+0%)	(9) Solent Gateway 12/1, Fairly useful stayer on the Flat for Hugo Palmer (sold 9,000 gns). Had usual headgear/tongue strap retained for hurdling debut and looked badly in need of the experience but knew more when third at Catterick (15.7f, good to soft) last month. Probably needs more time (has had a wind op). Yet to transfer his Flat ability to hurdles but wind op could help; possible player.
4	10 4th (10) (66/1 -32%) Brindley	66 66/1(-32%)	(10) Brindley 66/1, Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1m), well below form in handicaps final 2 starts in 2024. Sold from Jack Channon for only 1,000 gns in September and made very little impact sent hurdling after 6 months off at Huntingdon (15.8f, good) recently. Failed to settle and tailed off at 50-1 on recent hurdle and stable debut at Huntingdon.
5th	3 5th (3) (12/1 -9%) Katana	12 12/1(-9%)	(3) Katana 12/1, €45,000 half-brother to French hurdler/chaser Gangster de Coddes who showed ability amidst greenness when fifth of 8 in bumper at Wincanton (15.2f, good) in October. Needed the experience sent hurdling at Taunton a couple of months later but looks a stable lesser light even so. Yet to threaten but could take a sizeable step forward at some stage for leading trainer.
6th	11 6th (11) (50/1 -25%) Cap Ricochet	50 50/1(-25%)	(11) Cap Ricochet 50/1, Hadn't looked much in bumpers and yet to achieve a great deal over hurdles, already looking a bit of a handful when disgracing himself at the second at Sedgefield last week (attempted to run out and unseated rider). Easy to look elsewhere. Has shown some ability but improvement is needed; wayward when unseating early last time.
7th	6 7th (6) (400/1 -60%) Mythical	400 400/1(-60%)	(6) Mythical 400/1, Modest Flat winner who has shown nothing in 3 starts over hurdles. Tailed off/pulled up at triple-figure odds this winter on his first three hurdle starts.
8th	7 8th (7) (66/1 -164%) Regal Cavalier	66 66/1(-164%)	(7) Regal Cavalier 66/1, Modest on Flat, comfortable winner of 15.5f minor event at Corlay last June. Sold from Ludovic Gadbin €21,000 the following month and interesting to see how he fares in the market on yard/hurdling debut. Won on the Flat in France last June by 5l; interesting contender on hurdle/stable debut.
9th	5 9th (5) (250/1 -150%) Kit The Christian	250 250/1(-150%)	(5) Kit The Christian 250/1, Brother to bumper winner Getagin and closely related to useful hurdler Crooks Peak (winner around 2m). Bred to have a future but looked badly in need of the experience on debut in novice hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, good) just over 5 weeks ago. There's potential in his pedigree but he was tailed off at 100-1 on last month's debut.
4	4 \|U\| (4) (25/1 +11%) Kids Say Lastgojoe	25 25/1(+11%)	(4) Kids Say Lastgojoe 25/1, Balko gelding who showed benefit of his debut and settled better ridden from the front when winning 5-runner bumper at Catterick in November. Looked badly in need of the experience sent hurdling at Newcastle in January so he'll need to leave that well behind (has had a wind op). Bumper winner; well beaten on hurdle debut but wind op since and not written off.
10th	1 10th (1) (6/5 +13%) All Well And Good	1.2 6/5(+13%)	(1) All Well And Good 6/5, From a very good Flat family and, having made a promising start when second at Worcester (2m) last June, went one place better when landing 12-runner bumper back at that venue a month later. Good second at Stratford when last seen in September and rates as a likely sort now hurdling. Bumper winner who makes hurdle debut in a race lacking depth; firmly in calculations.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (3/1 +25%) Jasmin Bellevue	3 3/1(+25%)	(2) Jasmin Bellevue 3/1, £110,000 purchase after finishing runner-up completed start in Irish points but has proven too headstrong on both starts under Rules, including when unseating his rider at the sixth in a first-time hood at Hereford on latest. Yet to shine under rules but this point runner-up is in top hands and capable of better.

14:00 Wetherby Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Having offered plenty of encouragement on his three bumper appearances last year, hurdles debutant All Well And Good is likely to prove popular on his return to action. Olly Murphy's charge is expected to be in the thick of the action, but it could be worth siding for SLEEPING LATE. The seven-year-old has displayed promise on both outings over timber to date and that experience may prove crucial. Jasmin Bellevue and Dilly's Gunner are also worth closer inspection.

Plenty of dead wood in this opener but there are some top yards represented and ALL WELL AND GOOD gets the nod to make a winning return/hurdling debut for Olly Murphy having reached a fairly useful level in bumpers last year. Heading up the opposition is Jasmin Bellevue, who has looked a handful on both outings so far but has stable jockey Nico de Boinville taking over in the plate. Sleeping Late and Dilly's Gunner can fight out third.

This could go to bumper winner ALL WELL AND GOOD on his hurdle debut. Stablemate Sir Galahad may pose the main threat.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
4	4 (4) (10/11 -36%) Tamar Bridge	0.909091 10/11(-36%)	(4) Tamar Bridge 10/11, Off almost 2 years before posting a very good second at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in October but she beat only one in 2m4f Lingfield handicap 2 months later. This C&D winner still holds major form claims dropped into selling grade. Very useful at best; ran well back from absence; not so good since; big chance at weights.
1	1 (1) (9/4 +10%) Honneur D'ajonc	2.25 9/4(+10%)	(1) Honneur D'ajonc 9/4, Arrives in good nick for his current yard, visored for the first time when second of 7 in claiming hurdle (11/4) at Catterick (15.7f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Not discounted. Useful hurdler and smart chaser but unpredictable now; back to form latest; form chance.
2	2 (2) (4/1 +38%) Wolfspear	4 4/1(+38%)	(2) Wolfspear 4/1, Got back on track when fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (18.7f, good to soft) 18 days ago. More is required at these weights however. Three wins from 8 handicap completions at 2m4f and 2m2f; back to form latest; a contender.

14:30 Wetherby Selling Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

Although TAMAR BRIDGE was never travelling when finishing a well-beaten fifth at Lingfield 100 days ago, he makes grand appeal on his entry into selling company. The veteran is clear on the ratings and a fifth career victory could be on the horizon. The selection's stablemate Wolfspear arrives on the back of a respectable fourth at Stratford and a similar performance should see him in the mix, although a bigger threat may emerge from recent Catterick runner-up Honneur D'Ajonc.

TAMAR BRIDGE wasn't at his best when fifth at Lingfield before Christmas but is still very hard to oppose dropped in grade for an in-form yard. Honneur d'Ajonc looks the one to give Olly Murphy's veteran most to do ahead of Wolfspear.

Honneur d'Ajonc and TAMAR BRIDGE have queries about them now but the latter gets the vote on the strength of his reappearance run.

15:00 Wetherby Handicap Chase (Class 4) 15f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
3	3 (3) (2/1 -23%) Harel Du Marais	2 2/1(-23%)	(3) Harel Du Marais 2/1, Revitalised for his new yard and bids for a hat-trick after back-to-back 2m wins at Southwell this month. Another bold showing is on the cards under a 7 lb penalty. Made it 2-2 for yard with something to spare at Southwell; 7lb penalty may not stop him.
4	4 (4) (10/3 +33%) Rumoursareflying	3.333333 10/3(+33%)	(4) Rumoursareflying 10/3, Maiden hurdler who failed to build on earlier chasing promise when third of 4 in handicap at Market Rasen (17.2f, good) 24 days ago. Not written off. 0-15 but he's been a fair 3rd behind rejuvenated winners the last twice; could be involved.
5	5 (5) (4/1 -14%) Hold Onto The Line	4 4/1(-14%)	(5) Hold Onto The Line 4/1, Resumed winning ways in 3-runner handicap chase at Newcastle (16.3f, good) 13 days ago. Up 2 lb but he ought to be thereabouts. Won at Newcastle last time and it was a decent race, despite the numbers; up just 2lb.
1	1 (1) (9/2 +0%) Baseline	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(1) Baseline 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler who went too freely when sixth of 7 in handicap at Taunton (16.5f, good) 18 days ago. Still can't be discounted now going chasing. Unplaced on recent handicap hurdle debut but could improve for the change of disciplines.
6	6 (6) (9/1 +18%) Special Dragon	9 9/1(+18%)	(6) Special Dragon 9/1, A fair 2m5f winner over hurdles who had yet to be asked for her effort when fell 3 out in handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f, good) in October. Has since had a wind op and remains open to progress. Considered. Something to prove over fences but has had wind op since last time and is lightly raced.
2	2 (2) (12/1 +40%) Findthetime	12 12/1(+40%)	(2) Findthetime 12/1, C&D winner who comes here out of sorts, cheekpieces tried for the first time when only sixth of 7 in handicap chase (20/1) at Ayr (16.5f, heavy) 20 days ago. Hard to warm to. C&D winner whose mark continues to tumble but a major turnaround is required.

15:00 Wetherby Handicap Chase (Class 4) 15f Race Class Flow

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

HAREL DU MARAIS has been revitalised since racing under the tutelage of Charles & Adam Pogson earlier this month, with two cosy victories at Southwell. A 7lb penalty doesn't look the limit of the eight-year-old's ability and a hat-trick is a distinct possibility. Hold Onto The Line relished a drop back in distance when scoring at Newcastle 13 days ago and he's feared most, marginally ahead of Special Dragon, who is open to improvement in this sphere.

HAREL DU MARAIS hasn't looked back since joining Charles and Adam Pogson and is weighted to go 3-3 under a 7 lb penalty here. Special Dragon remains with potential in this sphere though and could also have a say, with Newcastle scorer Hold Onto The Line and fencing debutant Baseline worthy of respect too.

Preference is for HOLD ONTO THE LINE, who has been in good form the last twice and is taken to add to his recent win at Newcastle.

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
2	2 (2) (11/4 -22%) Jacovec Cavern	2.75 11/4(-22%)	(2) Jacovec Cavern 11/4, Irish raider who looked to have the race at his mercy (clear in front) when falling last in handicap hurdle at Cork (20f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Up 6 lb here but still weighted to gain compensation. 6l ahead in big field at Cork last Thursday only to fall at final flight; strong claims.
5	5 (5) (6/1 +8%) Blue Hop	6 6/1(+8%)	(5) Blue Hop 6/1, Resumed winning ways at Doncaster in January and backed it up with a good second of 17 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (23.5f, good) 41 days ago. Form has been franked so he's a likely player. Strong form in big fields the last twice and he's a solid contender.
10	10 (10) (6/1 -71%) Crazierthandaisy	6 6/1(-71%)	(10) Crazierthandaisy 6/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who was runner-up in her first 2 hurdles before making no mistake in Warwick mares' novice (21f, soft) on New Year's Eve. Should have more to offer in handicaps for leading connections. Bumper and novice hurdle winner who is in excellent hands to continue her progress.
1	1 (1) (8/1 -60%) Kap Vert	8 8/1(-60%)	(1) Kap Vert 8/1, Landed 2m Exeter novice in December and has posted creditable placed efforts since there and at Sandown. Entitled to play a part again returned to further on his handicap debut. 2m novice hurdle winner who is open to improvement now up in trip on handicap debut.
12	12 (12) (9/1 +25%) Book Of Tales	9 9/1(+25%)	(12) Book Of Tales 9/1, Fair 14f Flat winner who made a successful start over hurdles at Fontwell in August 2023. Has run with credit when in the frame in handicaps at Doncaster and Musselburgh this term and looks worth a try over this longer trip. Not without interest. Two pretty good efforts this winter, after long absence, and today's new trip could suit.
11	11 (11) (9/1 +64%) Kilta	9 9/1(+64%)	(11) Kilta 9/1, Made a winning chase debut in 3-runner event at Cartmel last May. Has proved inconsistent since, however, and reverts to hurdles with more needed. Won over hurdles and fences last spring; inconsistent over fences since his last win.
9	9 (9) (11/1 +21%) Magic Wave	11 11/1(+21%)	(9) Magic Wave 11/1, Lightly-raced 2m4f hurdles winner. Off 9 months before an encouraging sixth of 17 in handicap here (19.7f, soft) 55 days ago. Can make his presence felt off a 2 lb lower mark. Fair sixth of 17 here last time and today's forecast better ground may well be a plus.
6	6 (6) (12/1 +14%) Park Annonciade	12 12/1(+14%)	(6) Park Annonciade 12/1, Yet to score this term but he comes here in decent nick, fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 32 days ago. Needs considering eased 1 lb. Close third at Ayr two starts ago and heavy ground perhaps not ideal there since.
3	3 (3) (12/1 +45%) Foster'sisland	12 12/1(+45%)	(3) Foster'sisland 12/1, On a losing run and he came in only eighth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (22.7f, soft) 42 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now and he's the sort to bounce back. Well treated on form as recent as November but this 10yo has been patchy subsequently.
13	13 (13) (14/1 +58%) Kalhandrion	14 14/1(+58%)	(13) Kalhandrion 14/1, Failed to build on earlier promise on his handicap bow when fifth of 7 at Newbury (20.5f, soft) 28 days ago. Not written off yet. 5yo who is lightly raced but he was soundly beaten on last month's handicap debut.
8	8 (8) (18/1 +10%) Soldierofthestorm	18 18/1(+10%)	(8) Soldierofthestorm 18/1, Has twice failed to build on an encouraging reappearance third at Hereford, eighth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft) in January. More required after a break. Looked progressive in the first half of last year but hasn't shone this winter.
4	4 (4) (40/1 -186%) Jericoacoara	40 40/1(-186%)	(4) Jericoacoara 40/1, A fairly useful ex-French 2m1f hurdles winner and not disgraced on both runs for his current yard, third of 4 in handicap at Newcastle (16.9f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Not ruled out now stepping up in trip. Fair efforts on first two British starts and the step up in trip could be a positive.
7	7 (7) (80/1 -21%) Butler's Brief	80 80/1(-21%)	(7) Butler's Brief 80/1, Scored at Bangor in October but pulled up in handicap hurdle at Warwick (25f, soft) following month. Back from a break now with a bit to prove. 10yo who has very healthy strike-rate but returns from a break and may prefer further.

15:32 Wetherby Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow

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

JACOVEC CAVERN was six lengths clear and in command when coming to grief at the final flight at Cork recently and despite having a 6lb higher UK mark to contend with, Paul Hennessy's charge can execute a successful raid, should he be none the worse for that tumble. Crazierthandaisy landed a novice at Warwick in December and she could put up the most resistance now pitched into handicaps from a seemingly workable opening mark. Blue Hop drops in class and must be respected, while Kap Vert is also noted.

This is wide open but Irish challenger JACOVEC CAVERN looked to have the race in safe keeping until coming down at the final flight at Cork last week and is fancied to gain compensation off a still handy mark. Nicky Henderson's handicap debutant Crazierthandaisy appeals as a likely improver and could emerge as the main danger, although Book of Tales, Blue Hop and Magic Wave all need factoring into this competitive handicap too.

Irish challenger JACOVEC CAVERN was 6l ahead when falling at the final flight at Cork last week and can make amends.

7	7 (7) (15/8 +17%) Heroique De Maulde	1.875 15/8(+17%)	(7) Heroique De Maulde 15/8, Won twice over fences in France and off the mark on this side of the Channel for James Ewart at Doncaster in February 2023. No show first 3 starts of this season following a lengthy absence but firmly back on track when finding just one too good at Newcastle (23.4f, good) and he's a key player. Back to form with close second at Newcastle (middle leg of a hat-trick for the winner).
1	1 (1) (5/2 +55%) Realisation	2.5 5/2(+55%)	(1) Realisation 5/2, Winning hurdler who made a promising start over fences when placed at Warwick and Lingfield earlier this term. However, she has failed to build on those efforts the last twice (sketchy round of jumping being a key contributor to her downfall last time) but this step up in trip could be a good move. Below par the last twice but a case can be made on her promising form last autumn.
6	6 (6) (5/1 +33%) Giovanni Change	5 5/1(+33%)	(6) Giovanni Change 5/1, Four-time hurdles winner who has twice finished in the money in 27.6f handicap chases at Market Rasen. However, those creditable placings were both preceded by lesser efforts, commensurate with his hit-and-miss profile. Others make more appeal on balance. Some fair form at Market Rasen among recent starts but this 10yo is on a long losing run.
8	8 (8) (5/1 +44%) Mixedwave	5 5/1(+44%)	(8) Mixedwave 5/1, Bagged a couple of handicap chases at Huntingdon last term but, save for a respectable effort at Doncaster in January, it's been a struggle so far this season. Needs to bounce back. He's below his last winning mark but current campaign has been somewhat underwhelming.
4	4 (4) (15/2 +63%) Court At Slip	7.5 15/2(+63%)	(4) Court At Slip 15/2, Likeable sort who scored 3 times in 2022/23, including over this C&D, and added to his tally on the second of his 3 appearances last season. Pulled up on return at Carlisle but he was returning from a 14-month absence that day and better can be expected here. Runs off last winning mark but pulled up at Carlisle recently when back from long absence.
9	9 (9) (28/1 +58%) Mister Bells	28 28/1(+58%)	(9) Mister Bells 28/1, Now 8 lb lower than for his latest win in a 25f veterans' handicap chase at Catterick last January but he has shown precious little in 4 starts during the present campaign. Now 8lb lower than when winning last January but this 11yo has struggled this season.

16:07 Wetherby Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

It remains to be seen as to whether this is HEROIQUE DE MAULDE's optimum trip, but he struck the woodwork over an extended 2m7f at Newcastle earlier this month, and that form has worked out well. He's officially 2lb well in today and, if finding any further improvement, might be tough to beat. Fete Champetre was in front when falling two from home at Ayr three weeks ago and must enter calculations raised 2lb in the handicap, while Roger Rarebit should not be overlooked.

HEROIQUE DE MAULDE was heavily backed and duly returned to form when runner-up at Newcastle earlier this month, form which was given a boost when the winner went on to complete the hat-trick at Sedgefield last week. The 8-y-o remains on a good mark and will likely prove a tough nut to crack here. It's not hard to envisage Court At Slip showing himself in a far better light than at Carlisle where he was returning from a lengthy absence and he is second choice ahead of Realisation.

The 10yo FETE CHAMPETRE was in front when falling two out at Ayr three weeks ago and is the selection ahead of Roger Rarebit.

6	6 (6) (2/1 +50%) Aazza	2 2/1(+50%)	(6) Aazza 2/1, Dual hurdles winner for Rose Dobbin and seems to be running into form over hurdles for new connections, ran as well as she has this season when second over C&D 10 days ago, following an 8-week break. Should go well again providing this doesn't come too soon. Runner-up over C&D ten days ago off this career-low mark; in the mix.
4	4 (4) (10/3 +72%) Snowrocco	3.333333 10/3(+72%)	(4) Snowrocco 10/3, Placed in an Irish point and back to form when fourth of 18 in a handicap at Ayr (20.4f) in January. Some mitigation for disappointing effort on first try over 3m having been kicked at the start here in January. Tongue-tie on and not totally dismissed if staying this longer trip. Fair fourth on second handicap start and kicked at the start when well beaten last time.
8	8 (8) (5/1 +55%) Myfavouritesister	5 5/1(+55%)	(8) Myfavouritesister 5/1, Little form in bumpers and made no impact in qualifying runs, again disappointing in a first-time hood when well-held in a Catterick (19.3f) novice back in December. Steps up in trip for handicap debut (bred to stay this far) and one to note in the betting racing off a lowly opening mark. Close relation to classy staying chaser The Real Whacker; could improve now up in trip.
2	2 (2) (6/1 +45%) Ballin Bay	6 6/1(+45%)	(2) Ballin Bay 6/1, Improved when making a winning reappearance in a handicap hurdle at Kelso (22.7f, heavy) last season but has failed to fire since, including on second start over fences (after 6 months off) when fourth of 7 at Sedgefield (26.3f) in December. Needs to bounce back on hurdles return/stable debut. Won over hurdles for Pauline Robson; not ruled out on first run for Rebecca Menzies.
1	1 (1) (6/1 +63%) Marmalade Time	6 6/1(+63%)	(1) Marmalade Time 6/1, Improved in novice hurdles, winning at Doncaster (19.5f, heavy) last March. Lost form subsequently and offered little on reappearance at Exeter before showing only minor promise at Hereford (21.7f) last month. Questions to answer at present. Won a novice hurdle at Doncaster last March but has struggled in handicaps since.
7	7 (7) (14/1 +65%) Balkotic	14 14/1(+65%)	(7) Balkotic 14/1, On a losing run stretching back to 2022. Well below form over the autumn and fared little better on return after 3 months off when last in a 3-runner event at Catterick (25.3f) earlier this month. Difficult to fancy on recent evidence. Reduced mark appeals on form as recent as last June but he's struggled on his 5 runs since.
9	9 (9) (20/1 +70%) On We Go	20 20/1(+70%)	(9) On We Go 20/1, Veteran has largely struggled since landing a 3m Ayr handicap 2 years ago, showing little promise in three starts this season and has now undergone wind surgery. Best to look elsewhere. 12yo who has struggled this season; hopes pinned on wind op prompting a dramatic revival.

16:45 Wetherby Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

HENRYSBROTHERJACK got back on track with a decisive success at Bangor last time out and a subsequent 6lb rise might not be enough to stop the low-mileage six-year-old from going in again. Glory Hights went down narrowly at Ayr recently and is unlikely to be far away once again along with Aazza, who also struck the woodwork on her latest outing, which came over this C&D.

A 2 lb rise may not be enough to stop the consistent GLORY HIGHTS who can make amends for a narrow defeat at Ayr earlier this month. Aazza was runner-up at this venue 10 days ago and can go well again racing off the same mark, while last-time out winner Henrysbrotherjack is relatively unexposed and may still be improving.

The mare MYFAVOURITESISTER is a close relation to star stablemate The Real Whacker and could relish the step up in trip on h'cap debut.

Has longer trip to overcome but makes plenty of appeal from the same mark. Easy win at Ffos Las last week; tackles new trip today but escapes a penalty for last time.
2	2 (2) (4/1 +60%) Vengaboy	4 4/1(+60%)	(2) Vengaboy 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden who was let down by jumping when seventh of 14 on handicap debut (28/1) at Fairyhouse in November 2023. Well-held in two starts for this yard, never threatened in first-time cheekpieces at Hexham (23.3f) earlier this month. Needs more. Lightly raced but down the field on both runs this year after missing all of 2024.
5	5 (5) (5/1 +29%) Hawkseye View	5 5/1(+29%)	(5) Hawkseye View 5/1, Point winner has yet to get mark under Rules but has gone close over fences despite proving a less than fluent jumper, again in evidence last time when third of 6 in handicap chase at Newcastle (23.4f). May be suited by a return to smaller obstacles and looks interesting off a falling handicap mark. 0-14 but in fair form in chases despite jumping lacking fluency; could be firmly involved.
4	4 (4) (7/1 +30%) Upfordebate	7 7/1(+30%)	(4) Upfordebate 7/1, Off the mark, in first-time tongue strap, when landing 8-runner handicap hurdle at Ayr (20.4f, soft) last month before finding trip and track too sharp at Catterick (19.3f) 31 days ago. Each-way chance with the return to a longer trip likely to prove suitable. Won at Ayr last month; only sixth since but retains potential, especially now up in trip.
6	6 (6) (7/1 +0%) Rumble B	7 7/1(+0%)	(6) Rumble B 7/1, Veteran is proving consistent and ran his best race so far this season when second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Catterick (25.3f, good to soft), seeing out his race well under this conditional jockey. Should give his running again. Back to form when second at Catterick last month and could again be thereabouts.
3	3 (3) (14/1 -65%) Lathan	14 14/1(-65%)	(3) Lathan 14/1, Won a modest Newcastle maiden in November and would have bettered that form (looked set for 2nd) but for falling 2 out at this course just 24 hours later. Pulled up since but back on song after 11 weeks off when fifth at Newcastle (20f) 25 days ago. Place claims up in trip with cheekpieces fitted. Fair fifth at Newcastle this month and open to improvement now up in trip; possible player.
9	9 (9) (16/1 -33%) Prince Nino	16 16/1(-33%)	(9) Prince Nino 16/1, Losing run extends back to September 2023 but has posted a couple of creditable runners-up efforts this season. Bounced back from a disappointing effort when fifth of 8 at Newcastle 13 days ago, travelling more kindly and shaping as though worth another go at this trip. Each-way possibilities. Went close in January but unproven at this longer trip and below par the last twice.
1	1 (1) (50/1 -52%) Chatshow Host	50 50/1(-52%)	(1) Chatshow Host 50/1, Dual Irish point winner was inconsistent over hurdles last season and has made a discouraging start over fences in a couple of starts this season. Now reverts to hurdling following wind surgery and has a bit to prove. Has been out of form but perhaps a wind op will prompt a revival now she's back hurdling.

17:20 Wetherby Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

The Fergal O'Brien stable can do little wrong at present, and now that the penny has dropped for QUEEN OF STEEL after a taking success in a conditional handicap over shorter at Ffos Las last week, she looks well capable of following up. Placed on each of his previous two outings over further, Rumble B can follow her home, along with Hawkseye View, who could be interesting on his return to the smaller obstacles.

QUEEN OF STEEL looks to have been found a good opportunity to follow up last week's win and, still able to race off the same mark (due to go up 7 lb in future), she is worth a go at this longer trip on drying ground. Of the rest, Hawkseye View is feasibly handicapped if getting his jumping together back over smaller obstacles while consistent-veteran Rumble B can hit the frame again.

The mare QUEEN OF STEEL (nap) powered clear for a breakthrough win at Ffos Las last Friday and goes unpenalised today.

17:50 Wetherby NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

WANDERING EGO improved from first to second start when only beaten a neck at Huntingdon last month and, with further progress expected, he can go one better for his in-form connections. A promising second on heavy ground at Sandown first time out last month, Mondoui'boy looks to be the main danger, along with well-bred debutant Girlfromtheglen, who should be monitored for market support.

WANDERING EGO took a step forward and wasn't beaten far behind a good prospect at Huntingdon 7 weeks ago so gets the vote over Mondoui'boy and Ned Hill. Starmount and Girlfromtheglen are appealing newcomers.

The ground will be quicker than MONDOUI'BOY has faced but, all things being equal, he does look the one to beat.

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.
