Red Dwarf was far from disgraced when hitting the frame in a class 6 handicap at Kempton last month and she is likely to be a player once again under Silvestre De Sousa. However, it could pay to side with OCEAN RIDGE, who was gaining all the way to the line in a handicap over C&D last month and he filled the runner-up spot in this company on his penultimate start. Miss Sligo completes the shortlist.

OCEAN RIDGE has made a solid start for his current stable and finished well from a poor position when third over C&D last time, so he's worth chancing in a weak race. Red Dwarf has been showing better signs lately, so she's regarded as the main threat ahead of Chourmo.

Preference is for OCEAN RIDGE, who also arrives in good heart and might just appreciate the switch to this sphere.

MAMALOUKA continued her fine form to score by a length over 1m2f at Lingfield last time, which made it two wins from her last three starts. Amy Murphy's filly was put up 4lb and that's unlikely to be enough to prevent her from striking again. Danehill Star has been gelded since fading into third in the closing stages over a mile at Kempton last month, and he is likely to be on the premises off an unchanged mark, while Little Rose is one to watch in the market.

MAMALOUKA might be able to defy the handicapper again and make it 3 wins in her last 4 starts. Danehill Star and Something To Do are others who arrive in from and should get involved, while Little Rose is one of a few handicap newcomers to note in the betting.

Publicity should fare better but LITTLE ROSE was prominent in the market on her first two runs and there won't be any excuses here.

SPIRITUAL PURSUIT could make her experience tell in this contest after filling the runner-up spot for the third time on her latest outing here. She now has first-time cheekpieces added and sets the standard with a rating of 74, so looks the one to beat from stall three. Spirit Of The Rose wasn't beaten far into fourth over 7f at Chelmsford last time and she is an interesting contender dropping in trip, while Midnight Call is likely to improve on her debut sixth.

Roger Varian's FARO DI NOTTE appeals on pedigree so is taken to go in at the first time of asking at the chief expense of Pearl Abbey, who looks open to improvement now she steps up in distance. Spiritual Pursuit also has the form to play a part in this fair maiden.

Tonight's extra furlong should suit PEARL ABBEY now she's had a run back and she's fancied to progress past Spiritual Pursuit.

LAWMANS BLIS scored over C&D on his penultimate start and, after enduring a luckless passage when finishing sixth over an extended 1m4f at Newcastle last week, he's taken to bounce straight back to winning ways off an unchanged mark. Sullivan Bay was sent off a warm order when he could only manage third over 2m at Chelmsford most recently, and the suspicion is that he may find one or two too good again. Rossa Ryan is flying along at the moment and his booking aboard Captain Square catches the eye.

LAWMANS BLIS, a winner over C&D last month, just got going a bit too late back down in trip at Newcastle last week and is still attractively handicapped on past exploits, so he remains one to be interested in. Sullivan Bay is less exposed than the rest and warrants respect on first start for Henrietta Knight, with Captain Square another to consider.

A handful of these are of interest with LAWMANS BLIS making the most appeal on his return to this C&D.

INTINSO was last seen finishing sixth in a traditionally deep York handicap last summer and, racing off an unchanged mark on his first run since a gelding operation, he can make a successful return to action. Barring a below-par display at Kempton on his penultimate start, Haku has been performing admirably this winter, although a career-high mark does demand more of him. Dream Harder finished third off this rating at Beverley back in September and a repeat of that effort would put him firmly in the shake-up.

APPROACHABILITY is returning from a long absence but has been given a chance by the handicapper so could be worth chancing. Intinso has a positive profile and may do better still as a 4-y-o, while Haku enhanced his excellent record here 5 weeks ago and is worth a shot at this level.

Haku is solid enough, but the lightly raced INTINSO (nap), who's been gelded, has the greater potential if more amenable now.

With the likes of Intervention, Revolutionise and Documenting all likely to take up a prominent position, this might set up perfectly for FOLLOW YOUR HEART. Mark Loughnane's charge failed to make an impact in a warm class 2 last month, a race in which Trip To Rome finished ahead in third, but down in class at a venue that clearly suits (four course victories), he is likely to be a threat to all. The way in which Thapa VC travelled into contention at Kempton a fortnight ago would suggest he is a danger from an unaltered rating. Book Of Life, who could prove to be better than a mark of 88, is worth a market check ahead of his UK debut.

EAGLE DAY goes especially well at this track and still looks on good mark judged on the pick of his form, so he's taken to bounce back from a below-par effort at Southwell. Street Kid and Thapa Vc head the opposition.

A number of these are high in the weights and the lightly raced TRIP TO ROME makes most appeal. Street Kid is next best.

Having weakened over the extended 1m1f here in January, and looking outpaced over 7f last time out, it might be that this trip is optimal for SOI DAO. A winner from 3lb lower over C&D at the start of the year, the Adrian Wintle-trained mare looks more than capable of mounting a stern challenge, and the booking of Hollie Doyle is noteworthy. Island Native was just touched off at Chelmsford last Saturday and appeals as the main danger up 3lb in the handicap. Others to note include Harbour Vision and Graffiti.

GRAFFITI has been knocking on the door of late, doing best of those ridden close up when a close third at Chelmsford last time, so tops the shortlist over Harbour Vision and Island Native.

A decent spread of pace here and this might be set up for GRAFFITI, who's up to winning off this mark. Open Choice can go well too.

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.
