1	1 (1) (10/1 -186%) Ballela Blaze		10 10/1(-186%)																															(1) Ballela Blaze 10/1, Conduit gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Clues And Arrows and modest hurdler/chaser Banna Beach, stayed 2¾m. Dam unraced. Easy winner sole start in Irish points (Mar 5). Easily won six-runner Irish point by 22l on debut in May; interesting recruit.
1	6 1st (6) (1.88/1 +6%) Thirtyfour Thirty		1.88 1.88/1(+6%)																															(6) Thirtyfour Thirty 1.88/1, Telescope gelding who found only a well-touted fellow newcomer too good at this C&D (good) just over 5 weeks ago, taking time to hit top stride. Could well put that experience to good use and go one better. Out of a very useful bumper/hurdle winner; close second over C&D on last month's debut.
2	2 2nd (2) (1.62/1 +54%) Tribal Glory		1.62 1.62/1(+54%)																															(2) Tribal Glory 1.62/1, £48,000 5-y-o, Mahler gelding. Brother to fair hurdler/chaser Duke of Luckley, probably stays 19f, and half-brother to fair hurdler Pakie's Dream. Successful sole start in Irish points (May 14). Looks one to note. Bought for £48,000 after winning Irish point debut in May; with good yard for rules career.
3	4 3rd (4) (3/1 +0%) Professor Higgins		3 3/1(+0%)																															(4) Professor Higgins 3/1, €35,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Dam fair 19f chase winner. Noteworthy newcomer from a top yard. First foal from a 2m3f chase winner; top stable has excellent bumper strike-rate.
4	3 4th (3) (66/1 -65%) Go On Ya Goodthing		66 66/1(-65%)																															(3) Go On Ya Goodthing 66/1, £4,000 4-y-o, Dawn Approach gelding. Dam lightly raced on Flat. Third completed start in Irish points, pulled up last time (Mar 12). Showed minor promise on first of two Irish points; bought for £4,000 in May; rules debut.
5th	5 5th (5) (25/1 +24%) Sinnaraja		25 25/1(+24%)																															(5) Sinnaraja 25/1, Cima De Triomphe gelding who showed nothing when pulled up in bumper at Warwick (16f, heavy) back in March. Had a breathing operation and a tongue tie is applied. Ran as though something was amiss on debut, but was quite prominent in the betting.

LTO Selection:

15:10 Worcester NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

THIRTYFOUR THIRTY was only narrowly denied on his racecourse debut over C&D last month and a reproduction of that effort can see him firmly in the picture here. His dam was a Listed bumper winner and it is likely he has more to offer with that in mind. His chief dangers look to be Rules debutants Ballela Blaze and Tribal Glory, both whom arrive following easy point-to-points wins earlier in the year.

THIRTYFOUR THIRTY found only a well-touted fellow newcomer too good over C&D last month and with that experience sure to stand him in good stead, Nigel Twiston-Davies' 4-y-o is fancied to go one better. The market will no doubt provide clues with regards to the newcomers, but Professor Higgins and Tribal Glory both represent top yards and it would be no surprise to see them both in the mix.

One of two to pull along way clear of the others when going close here on debut, THIRTYFOUR THIRTY might be the answer.

1	5 1st (5) (0.73/1 +34%) Ike Sport		0.73 0.73/1(+34%)																															(5) Ike Sport 0.73/1, Raised his game considerably back from 4 months off when seeing off a subsequent winner in handicap at Taunton (19f) in March. Good runner-up efforts in handicap company on 3 of his 4 starts since and leading form claims back in a novice. Second in another three handicaps since his win in March; has good chance at the weights.
2	1 2nd (1) (3/1 +14%) Soldat Forte		3 3/1(+14%)																															(1) Soldat Forte 3/1, Fair form in bumpers and well prepared to make a successful hurdles debut at Southwell in April. Similar form when runner-up at Ludlow and Uttoxeter since. Likely to be in the thick of things again. Second on both starts since winning hurdle debut; up in trip here; likely contender.
4	10 4th (10) (18/1 +36%) Sforza Castle		18 18/1(+36%)																															(10) Sforza Castle 18/1, Has hinted at ability in a bumper and maiden hurdle in recent months. May do better. Shaped with some promise on last month's hurdle debut but probably one for another day.
5th	9 5th (9) (33/1 -32%) Seefin		33 33/1(-32%)																															(9) Seefin 33/1, Failed to complete in points. 10/1, barely modest form when fourth of 8 in maiden at Southwell (20.5f, good to soft) on hurdle debut 34 days ago. From a top yard but he will need a decent chunk of improvement to go close here. With a good stable but was 0-4 in Irish points in 2022 and made underwhelming rules debut.
6th	2 6th (2) (28/1 -180%) Baikal		28 28/1(-180%)																															(2) Baikal 28/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Left hurdle debut behind when springing a 25/1 surprise in 2m course maiden in May, despite doing plenty wrong (hung left). Well held back on Flat since. Stamina not assured now stepping up in trip. Caused 25-1 surprise in modest 2m maiden here in May; has stamina to prove today.
7th	12 7th (12) (11/1 +21%) Our Friend Mo		11 11/1(+21%)																															(12) Our Friend Mo 11/1, Third in her sole Irish point. Has shown ability in 2 hurdles this spring but possibly more one for handicaps after this. Third on Irish point debut and has shown promise under rules; others look stronger, though.
8th	3 8th (3) (66/1 -313%) Ballylinch		66 66/1(-313%)																															(3) Ballylinch 66/1, Winning pointer but ran to only a modest level when fourth of 6 on 23f Market Rasen hurdle debut 17 days ago. Down in trip. Irish point winner; ran okay on rules debut but this race is a fair bit stronger.
9th	6 9th (6) (150/1 -200%) Ipso Falco		150 150/1(-200%)																															(6) Ipso Falco 150/1, Well held in bumpers 7 months apart. Longer trip should suit now hurdling but still hard to fancy. Well beaten in both bumpers; makes hurdling debut today.
10th	11 10th (11) (200/1 -100%) Ykikahobbsie		200 200/1(-100%)																															(11) Ykikahobbsie 200/1, Poor form in 2 outings on the Flat early last year ahead of this switch to hurdles. Struggled on his two Flat starts last year and makes hurdling debut after 481-day absence.
11th	8 11th (8) (7/1 +7%) Roll With It		7 7/1(+7%)																															(8) Roll With It 7/1, Fair form when placed twice in bumpers at the start of 2022. Off for 16 months ahead of this switch to hurdles but this race lacks depth and he needs a betting check. Live claims if judged on bumper form, but makes hurdle debut after 491-day absence.

15:45 Worcester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

SOLDAT FORTE has been hugely consistent since beginning his career in this sphere and recent efforts have suggested that a step up in trip may eke out further improvement. If so, the six-year-old may have too much for the slightly unlucky Ike Sport, who has been runner-up on three of his last four outings. A winner here over shorter in May, Baikal can also have a say in proceedings.

IKE SPORT escapes a penalty for his win in a conditional jockeys' handicap and that just tips things in his favour ahead of fellow previous hurdle winner Soldat Forte. Roll With It hasn't been seen for 16 months but did achieve enough in bumpers at the beginning of 2022 to think he could make his presence felt in a race like this now hurdling.

This looks a good opportunity for IKE SPORT, who has been running to a fair level in handicaps and avoids a penalty for his win.

1	9 1st (9) (8.5/1 -21%) My Poem		8.5 8.5/1(-21%)																															(9) My Poem 8.5/1, Poor handicap hurdler who ran well at Stratford when last seen 8 months ago but is likely to strip fitter for this. Just missed out in a good-ground Stratford handicap when last seen in October.
2	4 2nd (4) (2.5/1 -25%) Vision Of Hope		2.5 2.5/1(-25%)																															(4) Vision Of Hope 2.5/1, AW Flat winner who is on the up and doubled her tally in this sphere when just holding on at Market Rasen last time. Only up 3 lb and makes most appeal. Flat winner who has taken really well to hurdling; 3lb rise for latest win is manageable.
3	11 3rd (11) (7.5/1 +53%) Saddlers Quest		7.5 7.5/1(+53%)																															(11) Saddlers Quest 7.5/1, Poor maiden hurdler who looks set for another struggle. Never seriously involved at Hereford last time and she's now 0-12 over hurdles.
4	12 4th (12) (9/1 +55%) Jolie Baie		9 9/1(+55%)																															(12) Jolie Baie 9/1, Offered little in a Huntingdon bumper on Rules debut and only mild encouragement so far over hurdles. May do better now handicapping in a first-time hood. Handicaps are now the way to go and she's first-time hooded.
5th	10 5th (10) (33/1 -18%) Citizen Jane		33 33/1(-18%)																															(10) Citizen Jane 33/1, Showed little over hurdles for Tom Symonds and, despite winning a point in between, failed to offer much encouragement on Rules debut for this yard at Uttoxeter last time. Others preferred. Only 7th on her return to rules and not sure about this drop back to 2m.
6th	1 6th (1) (28/1 -180%) On Cloud Nine		28 28/1(-180%)																															(1) On Cloud Nine 28/1, Runner-up on the second of 2 starts in points and best effort to date under Rules when third in a novice at Bangor last time. Appeals as the type to up her game now handicapping for the first time. Goes handicapping on the back of showing a bit more in a 2m maiden at Bangor.
7th	8 7th (8) (8/1 +20%) Coastal Sun		8 8/1(+20%)																															(8) Coastal Sun 8/1, Sole success from 11 hurdles starts was gained in a Ludlow claimer for Alastair Ralph in November. Yet to make an impact in handicaps for this yard but there was a glimmer of promise at Stratford last time. Beaten 10l at Stratford the last time in a race that never went to plan.
8th	6 8th (6) (12/1 +45%) Bella Madonna		12 12/1(+45%)																															(6) Bella Madonna 12/1, Poor form in bumpers/hurdles. Switch to handicaps needs to bring about plenty of improvement. Not done enough over hurdles to believe she'll make an immediate splash in handicaps.
9th	7 9th (7) (20/1 +9%) Joyful Kit		20 20/1(+9%)																															(7) Joyful Kit 20/1, Modest maiden hurdler who arrives out of sorts and is hard to make a case for. Below best for current stable, including when a 15l fourth at Ffos Las.
10th	5 10th (5) (5/1 +23%) Energy Two		5 5/1(+23%)																															(5) Energy Two 5/1, Lightly-raced hurdler who made a positive step when fourth in a C&D handicap hurdle last month, doing her best work at the finish. Can improve further, so merits respect. Still early days and closed to within 5l of the principals over C&D (good) 19 days ago.
11th	3 11th (3) (7/1 -40%) Three Macks		7 7/1(-40%)																															(3) Three Macks 7/1, Fair maiden on the Flat up to 7f for Andrew Oliver. Best effort to date over hurdles when second in a C&D handicap hurdle last time and seems likely to feature once more. 0-15 but having her first handicap when runner-up over C&D 19 days ago.
12th	2 12th (2) (40/1 -21%) Pepsiwithacap		40 40/1(-21%)																															(2) Pepsiwithacap 40/1, Just modest form over hurdles in Ireland. Performed respectably on Flat upon joining present yard but easy to back and disappointing when pulled up over hurdles at Plumpton (15.9f) in May. Brought down at Newton Abbot since. Pulled up on return to hurdling and then brought down early (18-1) off this mark.

16:15 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Not beaten far over C&D on her handicap debut last month, there is a possibility that THREE MACKS may get her way out in front this time around as she looks to break the maiden at the seventh time of asking. A winner of two of her last three starts, Vision Of Hope can give her the most to think about, along with My Poem, who has run well fresh in the past.

VISION OF HOPE held off another improving sort when scoring at Market Rasen last time and, with further improvement to come, she's fancied to defy a small rise. Three Macks and Energy Two both stepped forward when hitting the frame in the same C&D handicap 19 days ago and they're likely to be involved again.

If ridden a little handier this time then the unexposed ENERGY TWO could reverse recent course placings with Three Macks.

1	11 1st (11) (9/1 -29%) Rubys Reward		9 9/1(-29%)																															(11) Rubys Reward 9/1, Sole win came for Anthony Honeyball in 2021/22 but her form has been going the right way since joining her current yard, going down narrowly to a less-exposed sort when second of 3 at Newton Abbot (26.5f) last time. Shortlisted. Just 1-13 over hurdles but comes here after two good efforts; no surprise if she features.
2	2 2nd (2) (16/1 -14%) Classic Concorde		16 16/1(-14%)																															(2) Classic Concorde 16/1, Having won 4 times in points since last seen under Rules, attracted support (9/2) but disappointing when pulled up in handicap chase at this course (23f) 19 days ago. Has been given a chance by the handicapper as he returns to hurdling with cheekpieces back on. Ran poorly over fences here last month but reverts to hurdling on workable mark.
3	4 3rd (4) (1.1/1 +8%) Karavomylos		1.1 1.1/1(+8%)																															(4) Karavomylos 1.1/1, Has shown improved form upped in trip switched to handicaps this season, in first-time tongue tie when getting off the mark at Uttoxeter (23.3f) last month. Can follow up with further progress to come as a stayer. Rallied well for narrow Uttoxeter win last month and might still be improving; big player.
4	5 4th (5) (7.5/1 +38%) Fantomas		7.5 7.5/1(+38%)																															(5) Fantomas 7.5/1, Fortunate to score over fences at Uttoxeter (3m) in September and hasn't really threatened back over hurdles since his next outing, going backwards from his reappearance when sixth of 11 at Newton Abbot (18.5f) 13 days ago. Needs to find more back up in trip. Not firing on all cylinder this year and needs to up his game.
5th	10 5th (10) (66/1 -65%) Trickalight		66 66/1(-65%)																															(10) Trickalight 66/1, Irish point winner but remains with little form over hurdles, faring no better in first-time cheekpieces when down the field at this course (20f) in May. Placed in 2m4f maiden here in summer 2021 but lightly raced and very disappointing since.
6th	8 6th (8) (14/1 -87%) Racing Spirit		14 14/1(-87%)																															(8) Racing Spirit 14/1, Only one win from 28 starts over hurdles, which came back in July 2020. However, placed twice at this C&D last summer and, after 9 months off, ran well when finishing second at Southwell (24.3f) in June. Can give another good account. No win since summer 2020 but ran well last month, after a break and has each-way claims.
7th	7 7th (7) (25/1 +0%) King Otis		25 25/1(+0%)																															(7) King Otis 25/1, Modest ex-Irish maiden hurdler who hasn't shown much in 4 starts for current connections, pulled up on his chase debut at Southwell (24.3f) on his latest outing. Back over hurdles with cheekpieces now applied. Ex-Irish maiden who hasn't shown a great deal for his new stable this year.
8th	6 8th (6) (22/1 +0%) Stripe Of Honour		22 22/1(+0%)																															(6) Stripe Of Honour 22/1, Bagged his second course success when landing 12-runner handicap (20f) in May and shaped better than the distance beaten suggests when fifth of 11 at Southwell (24.3f) next time. However, wasn't on a going day when pulled up back here 19 days ago. Shock winner here in May but flopped badly last time and can't be relied upon.
9th	1 9th (1) (12/1 +14%) Twilight Girl		12 12/1(+14%)																															(1) Twilight Girl 12/1, Fair hurdler/chaser in Ireland. Multiple point winner since but let down by her jumping on yard debut in hunter chase at Fakenham (3m) in April. Back over hurdles, inadequate test when sixth of 9 at Newton Abbot (16.8f) last time. Others still more persuasive. 3-6 in points this year; found 2m1f too sharp on hurdling return; can do better here.
10th	12 10th (12) (33/1 +0%) Kayf Baha		33 33/1(+0%)																															(12) Kayf Baha 33/1, Little sign of encouragement over hurdles in 2021/22 and pulled up on his chase debut at Taunton on his sole outing last season. Best watched reverted to hurdling after a further 6 months off. Remains unexposed and worth a glance in the betting but others have more obvious claims.
9	9 |PU| (9) (6/1 +25%) Ya Know Yaseff		6 6/1(+25%)																															(9) Ya Know Yaseff 6/1, Having unseated on her first 2 starts over fences, wasn't disgraced under a forcing ride when fourth at Exeter (24.2f) in March. Had finished runner-up at Fakenham (23.4f) when last seen over hurdles in February, so she could get involved as she returns after a wind op. Made unconvincing start to chasing career in Feb/Mar but latest hurdle run provides hope.
3	3 |PU| (3) (25/1 -79%) Wildfire Warrior		25 25/1(-79%)																															(3) Wildfire Warrior 25/1, Winning hurdler but form went the wrong way over fences, offering little in only 2 starts last season and pulled up after 13 weeks off at Newton Abbot last month. Needs to get back on track reverted to hurdling with blinkers now reached for. Chasing has not gone to plan but he switches back to hurdling on a very tempting mark.

16:50 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

RUBYS REWARD has shown an improved level of form on her last couple of starts and the booking of Harry Cobden might help to make the difference required for her to gain a second career victory. Karavomylos got off the mark at Uttoxeter on his most recent outing and has to enter calculations off a 3lb higher mark. Racing Spirit and Ya Know Yaseff appeal most of the remainder.

KARAVOMYLOS has proved a different proposition stepped up in trip in handicaps this season, staying on well to open his account at Uttoxeter last time, and he can continue his progress to score again. Racing Spirit placed twice at this C&D last summer and could be the main danger, with Rubys Reward completing the shortlist.

If reinvigorated by the combination of first-time blinkers and a switch back to hurdling, WILDFIRE WARRIOR is on a very dangerous mark.

1	5 1st (5) (3/1 -9%) Jack The Farmer		3 3/1(-9%)																															(5) Jack The Farmer 3/1, Remains a maiden after 18 NH runs but has made the frame in all 5 starts for Nigel Hawke, again running well when second of 8 in handicap hurdle (10/3) at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Has to be taken seriously. Placed all five stable starts, most recent when clear second behind a next-time-out winner.
2	3 2nd (3) (18/1 -13%) Gastara		18 18/1(-13%)																															(3) Gastara 18/1, Encouraging start to chasing last season but ran no sort of race over fences here last month and has lots to prove reverting back to the smaller obstacles. Ran poorly in a chase here last time but is on a good mark and Brian Hughes is booked.
3	1 3rd (1) (14/1 -17%) Sheila Nash		14 14/1(-17%)																															(1) Sheila Nash 14/1, Won twice over C&D last summer for Harry Whittington but offered little on return for new yard in handicap hurdle at this course (20f, good) 19 days ago, dropping away before sixth. Bit to prove after that. Dual C&D winner last summer but ran no race here on recent stable debut.
4	10 4th (10) (80/1 -60%) Begoodtoyourself		80 80/1(-60%)																															(10) Begoodtoyourself 80/1, Lightly-raced over hurdles but seems to have gone sour as a chaser, tailed off before halfway at Southwell last time. Hard to fancy. Badly out of form over fences this season and stamina a possible issue on hurdling return.
5th	6 5th (6) (7.5/1 +25%) Walk In The Storm		7.5 7.5/1(+25%)																															(6) Walk In The Storm 7.5/1, Bumper winner made a promising start in handicaps when second at Ffos Las in March. Poor efforts both starts since, though, and others are preferred. Creditable second of 16 on handicap debut but two disappointing efforts have followed.
6th	12 6th (12) (10/1 +38%) Kimberley Eve		10 10/1(+38%)																															(12) Kimberley Eve 10/1, Showed her first form over hurdles when third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (20.4f, good to soft) 7 days ago. Well positioned on that occasion and now needs to back that up from 2 lb out the handicap. Needs to build upon her recent Southwell third but still has fairly low mileage.
7th	7 7th (7) (6/1 -71%) Hollow Ron		6 6/1(-71%)																															(7) Hollow Ron 6/1, Justified support when winning 6-runner handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good) 32 days ago, kept up to work. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Unexposed over this trip and merits consideration. Came good when upped to 2m7f at Uttoxeter last month; might have more to offer.
8th	9 8th (9) (7.5/1 +6%) Robbie Dazzler		7.5 7.5/1(+6%)																															(9) Robbie Dazzler 7.5/1, Returned to form after a wind-op when fourth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, good to soft, 5/1) 34 days ago. Solid place claims again from same mark. Comes here after very respectable fourth at Southwell last month; considered each-way.
9th	11 9th (11) (25/1 -39%) Ulysses		25 25/1(-39%)																															(11) Ulysses 25/1, Unreliable type. Course winner. 33/1, showed his first form for some time when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at this course (20f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Others are still more persuasive. Didn't run badly here 12 days ago but overall profile remains unappealing.
10th	2 10th (2) (8/1 -60%) Top Man		8 8/1(-60%)																															(2) Top Man 8/1, Three-time winner who looked rusty on recent return at Warwick having been off 17 months. This should reveal more. Made low-key return from long layoff in May but might come on for the run.
4	4 |PU| (4) (4.5/1 +72%) Barnards Green		4.5 4.5/1(+72%)																															(4) Barnards Green 4.5/1, Showed fair form in bumpers but has struggled over hurdles, faring no better when thirteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, soft) 65 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Needs a couple of these to falter. Placed in bumpers but has struggled over hurdles; had wind op; tongue-tie added today.

17:25 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

HOLLOW RON benefited from stepping up in trip when scoring for the first time at Uttoxeter last month and the application of cheekpieces for the first time may yield further progression. Jack The Farmer has been knocking on the door recently and he is likely to enter calculations once again, while Robbie Dazzler is capable of building on his recent fourth at Southwell.

JACK THE FARMER is a long-standing maiden but has posted a series of good efforts in defeat since joining Nigel Hawke and looks to have found a reasonable opportunity to get off the mark here. Hollow Ron produced an improved performance to score at Uttoxeter last time and rates as the most serious threat, with Robbie Dazzler making most appeal of the remainder.

Nigel Hawke's JACK THE FARMER (nap) drew clear of the others when second to a next-time-out winner in June and is only 1lb higher here.
