1
1st (18) Bergerac (22/1 +0%)
Bergerac

22/1(+0%)
(18) Bergerac 22/1, Landed 6f handicap here in September and has largely held his form this year, resuming winning ways in first-time blinkers when seeing off just 2 rivals at Newmarket a fortnight ago. This is clearly tougher but connections have won this twice with 4-y-os (Blaine and Bogart) in the last decade.
2
2nd (8) King Of Stars (33/1 +0%)
King Of Stars

33/1(+0%)
(8) King Of Stars 33/1, In and out this term after progressing through the ranks to win 4 handicaps in 2021. Fair runs from the front at Ascot the last twice but surprising if he's well enough treated to land a race like this from highest draw.
3
3rd (11) Atalis Bay (10/1 -11%)
Atalis Bay

10/1(-11%)
(11) Atalis Bay 10/1, Listed winner over 5f last summer and lurks on a good mark judged on his close third to Mondammej and Copper Knight off 6 lb higher at Haydock in September. Has caught the eye the last twice and could be set for a big run.
4
4th (15) Nomadic Empire (25/1 +0%)
Nomadic Empire

25/1(+0%)
(15) Nomadic Empire 25/1, Ended 2021 on the up, his second victory coming in 6f handicap here, but he's yet to hit top form this term, not impressing with his finishing effort the last twice. Visor now tried.
5th
5th (5) Makanah (7.5/1 +32%)
Makanah

7.5/1(+32%)
(5) Makanah 7.5/1, Running really well without winning in 2022, adding to his string of good efforts here when edged out by Dakota Gold over 6f in May. Shaped well in unfavoured group in the Stewards' Cup 3 weeks ago and unlikely to be far away from stall 1.
6th
6th (14) Live In The Dream (14/1 +0%)
Live In The Dream

14/1(+0%)
(14) Live In The Dream 14/1, Much improved when landing 5f handicaps at Sandown and Chester (under Moore) during the spring and good run from the front in listed race at first-named track 2 months ago. Well held behind Look Out Louis at Chester last time but shouldn't stay down for long.
7th
7th (19) Ghathanfar (16/1 +20%)
Ghathanfar

16/1(+20%)
(19) Ghathanfar 16/1, In top form, winning for a third time this year in bare 5f handicap here last month. Not beaten far in third in stronger 6f contest back at this venue last time but suspect he'll do well to take this after being nudged up another 2 lb.
8th
8th (12) Bond Chairman (33/1 -106%)
Bond Chairman

33/1(-106%)
(12) Bond Chairman 33/1, Fair 5f juvenile winner who has improved and held his form well in 5f Ascot handicaps this summer, just touched off by Mountain Peak in a red-hot contest on penultimate start. Has a race like this in him on that display.
9th
9th (13) Gis A Sub (16/1 +20%)
Gis A Sub

16/1(+20%)
(13) Gis A Sub 16/1, Pontefract novice winner who excelled himself when runner-up in the Gimcrack here last summer. Well held in 3 runs this year and has been gelded ahead of this handicap debut after 2 months off. Cheekpieces replace blinkers. Certainly wouldn't be the first from yard to revive at this venue.
10th
10th (10) Good Eye (12/1 +25%)
Good Eye

12/1(+25%)
(10) Good Eye 12/1, Useful Swedish sprinter who scored at Baden-Baden in May and ran a blinder from the front when fourth in the Stewards' Cup 3 weeks ago, keeping out of trouble and still pitching at the end. That sort of early speed will stand him in good stead down in trip here and he could go well.
11th
11th (17) Sunday Sovereign (20/1 -25%)
Sunday Sovereign

20/1(-25%)
(17) Sunday Sovereign 20/1, Chinned in bare 5f handicap here in May (runner-up in same race in 2021) off this mark and while that's a standout performance this year it would be dangerous to discount him given he's another from his local yard who clearly shines at this venue.
12th
12th (3) Mondammej (18/1 +10%)
Mondammej

18/1(+10%)
(3) Mondammej 18/1, Scored 5 times in 2021 and some solid performances this year, not least his second behind Nunthorpe favourite Royal Aclaim in listed contest over C&D last month. Not so good over 6f back here next time, though.
13th
13th (9) Project Dante (33/1 +0%)
Project Dante

33/1(+0%)
(9) Project Dante 33/1, Successful debut over C&D last spring before a fine effort in the Norfolk. Disappointing since, including back from a wind op here in May. Not seen since and has been gelded ahead of this first go in handicaps. Plenty to prove.
14th
14th (20) Ancient Times (12/1 +0%)
Ancient Times

12/1(+0%)
(20) Ancient Times 12/1, Has improved further this term, landing back-to-back 5f handicaps at Doncaster/Musselburgh (from Makanah) before a fine effort behind one reviving at Newmarket 6 weeks ago. Likeable sprinter and he could be involved up 2 lb.
15th
15th (4) Dakota Gold (7.5/1 +6%)
Dakota Gold

7.5/1(+6%)
(4) Dakota Gold 7.5/1, Won this in 2019 during a prolific spell and scored again here in 6f handicap in May, holding off Makanah. Cracking runs the last twice and despite his high draw should make a bold bid for victory number 7 at York (tied with Copper Knight and Stradivarius as winning-most horse at the track).
16th
16th (2) Zarzyni (8/1 +33%)
Zarzyni

8/1(+33%)
(2) Zarzyni 8/1, Has improved further this year with cheekpieces fitted, winning 5f Musselburgh handicap in April and good efforts in the frame in the Palace House and 5f Ascot handicap (behind Mountain Peak and Bond Chairman) 2 months apart. Respected.
17th
17th (1) Mountain Peak (33/1 +0%)
Mountain Peak

33/1(+0%)
(1) Mountain Peak 33/1, Took his form up a notch when landing big-field 5f handicap at Ascot last month under this rider, holding off the strong challenge of Bond Chairman, with Zarzyni in third. Well held back there next time though and will need another huge effort to defy this mark. Not so good in 2 prevous runs here.
18th
18th (6) Copper Knight (20/1 +9%)
Copper Knight

20/1(+9%)
(6) Copper Knight 20/1, Won 2 big-field handicaps here last year, including this race (tied with Dakota Gold and Stradivarius as winning-most horse at York with 6 victories). Has a fine record at Chester also, scoring there in June under this rider. Not so good off revised mark twice since but can't be ruled out back here.
19th
19th (7) Significantly (25/1 +11%)
Significantly

25/1(+11%)
(7) Significantly 25/1, Front running proved the making of him as he won back-to-back 5f Ascot handicaps last summer. Not so good in 2 starts this time around (gelded before return, then had a wind op before latest) but his mark has dipped. Tongue tie goes on now.
20th
20th (21) Count D'orsay (28/1 -12%)
Count D'orsay

28/1(-12%)
(21) Count D'orsay 28/1, A few good efforts this term (including when edged out by Look Out Louis at Chester in May) but he's on a losing run of 26 and plenty of others surely more solid.
21st
21st (16) Look Out Louis (14/1 +13%)
Look Out Louis

14/1(+13%)
(16) Look Out Louis 14/1, Has had a good year, scoring again in 5f Chester handicap under this claimer last month, overcoming a wide draw and keeping on well. 6 lb higher in tougher race now and yet to fire at York.
22nd
22nd (22) Dusky Lord (11/1 -10%)
Dusky Lord

11/1(-10%)
(22) Dusky Lord 11/1, Low-mileage 4-y-o who resumed progress when making a winning reappearance at Newmarket (5f) in May and ran well at Goodwood in first-time cheekpieces 3 weeks ago. Sterner headgear tried here and couldn't be discounted.

1
1st (1) Chaldean (3.5/1 +36%)
Chaldean

3.5/1(+36%)
(1) Chaldean 3.5/1, 550,000 gns foal, Frankel half-brother to several winners, including smart 2-y-o 6f winner Alkumait. Much improved from debut when winning 12-runner novice with a bit in hand at Newbury (7f) 33 days ago, beating 3 subsequent winners. Sure to progress and looks a useful 2-y-o in the making.
2
2nd (5) Indestructible (8/1 +0%)
Indestructible

8/1(+0%)
(5) Indestructible 8/1, €150,000 2-y-o, Kodiac colt. Confirmed debut promise when a wide-margin winner of a Windsor novice 23 days ago, still showing plenty of greenness but powering clear inside the final 1f. Will improve again and well worth his place in a higher grade.
3
3rd (8) Oviedo (7/1 +36%)
Oviedo

7/1(+36%)
(8) Oviedo 7/1, €150,000 yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Dam maiden (stayed 12.5f), half-sister to smart winner up to 9f Very Special. 3/1, won 10-runner novice event at Doncaster (7f, firm) on debut 27 days ago, looking a useful prospect given the way he made it to the front. Should improve.
4
4th (7) Mill Stream (3.6/1 -3%)
Mill Stream

3.6/1(-3%)
(7) Mill Stream 3.6/1, Justified market confidence when making a winning start to his career in a 15-runner maiden at Doncaster and useful form when runner-up under a penalty at Newmarket (just caught by one that might prove high class). Up in trip. Not to be underestimated.
5th
5th (6) Local Dynasty (2.5/1 -11%)
Local Dynasty

2.5/1(-11%)
(6) Local Dynasty 2.5/1, Dubawi colt. Brother to French 11f winner Swift Spirit. Dam, 6f-1m winner, half-sister to high-class winner up to 13f Yibir (by Dubawi). 15/8, impressive when winning maiden at Newmarket 12 days ago, very green for the first half of the race but really good once the penny dropped. Could be smart.
6th
6th (4) Hectic (14/1 -27%)
Hectic

14/1(-27%)
(4) Hectic 14/1, 10,000 gns foal, £44,000 yearling, Massaat colt. Half-brother to 3 winners, including 1¼m winner Parawell and 7f winner Sophie B. Dam winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner). Knew what was needed to make a winning start when making all in 10-runner novice at Newbury. More needed here but has potential.
7th
7th (3) Feel The Need (50/1 -25%)
Feel The Need

50/1(-25%)
(3) Feel The Need 50/1, All the better for Ayr debut when winning 6-runner maiden there last month, impressing with the way he both travelled and knuckled down when pressured. That form has taken a few knocks, however.
8th
8th (2) Chillhi (50/1 -52%)
Chillhi

50/1(-52%)
(2) Chillhi 50/1, Left debut well behind when 4-length winner of 10-runner maiden at Newcastle but needs to take another big step forward.
9th
9th (9) Shaquille (11/1 +39%)
Shaquille

11/1(+39%)
(9) Shaquille 11/1, Charm Spirit colt. Dam unraced sister to useful 9.5f-11.4f winner Birch Grove out of smart winner up to 6f (2-y-o 5f winner) Danehurst. Was no means a standout on paper but made a winning start in good fashion at this C&D last month. Entitled to improve but that may not be enough in this company.

1
1st (2) Deauville Legend (2.5/1 +29%)
Deauville Legend

2.5/1(+29%)
(2) Deauville Legend 2.5/1, Improving gelding who pushed Secret State close at Royal Ascot (albeit in receipt of weight) before shading a close finish in Group 3 Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket (Walk of Stars close up in third). Progressed again when second under a penalty in Gordon at Glorious Goodwood. Looks sure to go well.
2
2nd (5) Secret State (3/1 -33%)
Secret State

3/1(-33%)
(5) Secret State 3/1, Unbeaten in 4 starts since debut, producing really smart handicap performances when defying big weights in ultra-competitive events at Royal Ascot (gave Deauville Legend 4 lb and beat him a head) and Glorious Goodwood the last twice. Leading claims for yard seeking third win in this since 2018.
3
3rd (3) El Bodegon (10/1 +29%)
El Bodegon

10/1(+29%)
(3) El Bodegon 10/1, Group 1 winner in France at 2 and has added to his good record on the other side of the Channel with placed efforts in the French Derby (5 lengths second to Vadeni) and Grand Prix de Paris this summer. Daniel Muscutt, who has ridden him on all his previous starts in Britain, on Deauville Legend.
4
4th (6) Walk Of Stars (4.5/1 +18%)
Walk Of Stars

4.5/1(+18%)
(6) Walk Of Stars 4.5/1, Talented but quirkly individual. Had a gelding operation before latest close third to Deauville Legend in Bahrain Trophy at Newmarket but he still looked awkward under pressure (hung left). Stable second string no stranger to success in this but others still preferred for win purposes.
5th
5th (4) Grand Alliance (25/1 +24%)
Grand Alliance

25/1(+24%)
(4) Grand Alliance 25/1, Not entirely straightforward but he isn't short of ability, going very close in King Edward at Royal Ascot (1½m) despite hanging badly left in the closing stages. Not in the same form when well behind Deauville Legend in Gordon at Goodwood since. Visor off, first-time cheekpieces on.
6th
6th (1) Aikhal (3.5/1 -27%)
Aikhal

3.5/1(-27%)
(1) Aikhal 3.5/1, Well beaten in St James's Palace on reappearance but got his career firmly back on track when stepped up to 1¼m at the Curragh just 11 days later, pulling 4¼ lengths clear in a Group 3. Up in trip again for top Irish stable which last won this in 2016.

Baaeed

0.4/1(+9%)
(2) Baaeed 0.4/1, Top-class colt who is unbeaten in 9 starts over 1m, easily taking the Lockinge at Newbury, Queen Anne at Royal Ascot and Sussex at Glorious Goodwood this summer. Pedigree suggests this trip might even suit him better. Can't be opposed.
2
2nd (5) Mishriff (4/1 -14%)
Mishriff

4/1(-14%)
(5) Mishriff 4/1, Top-class horse who recorded third Group 1 win of career when pulling 6 lengths clear in this race last year. Back to best when edged out by Vadeni (Native Trail head back in third) in Eclipse at Sandown last month. Below par when well-held third in King George since but capable of bouncing back.
3
3rd (6) Sir Busker (100/1 +0%)
Sir Busker

100/1(+0%)
(6) Sir Busker 100/1, Smart performer broke his drought at pattern level when edging out the reopposing Dubai Honour in C&D Group 2 in July. He is unexposed at this trip but still a major surprise were he to follow up.
4
4th (3) Dubai Honour (33/1 +34%)
Dubai Honour

33/1(+34%)
(3) Dubai Honour 33/1, Big improver over 1¼m at 3, winning pair of Group 2s in France and second in Group 1 Champion Stakes in the autumn. Not at quite the same level in 2 outings this year (edged out by Sir Busker in C&D Group 2 latterly) but there's still time for him to resume his progression.
5th
5th (7) Native Trail (8/1 +0%)
Native Trail

8/1(+0%)
(7) Native Trail 8/1, Landed a third Group 1 success of his career when comfortably seeing off 8 rivals in the Irish 2000 Guineas at the Curragh in May. Ran up to his best tackling 1¼m for the first time when third (Mishriff just ahead in second) in Eclipse at Sandown last time. Should give another good account.
6th
6th (4) High Definition (40/1 +20%)
High Definition

40/1(+20%)
(4) High Definition 40/1, Always been highly-touted and finally produced the sort of performance his juvenile form suggested he was capable of when second under an aggressive ride in the Tattersalls Gold Cup at the Curragh in May. Not in the same form since and surprise were he to add to his trainer's 6 wins in this.

2

Frankenstella

7.5/1(+12%)
(11) Frankenstella 7.5/1, Likeable mare who resumed progress when landing 10-runner handicap in May 2021. Restricted to just two runs since, finishing placed on each occasion, and she's likely to give it another good go in a change of headgear.
3
3rd (10) Zoffee (5.5/1 +8%)
Zoffee

5.5/1(+8%)
(10) Zoffee 5.5/1, Has had a very good spell for his new yard back on the Flat. winning at Carlisle (1¾m) and Newcastle (2m) before an excellent close third of 16 in a very competitive handicap at Newmarket's July meeting. Seemed stretched by 20.4f trip at Goodwood.
4

Red Flyer

25/1(+11%)
(14) Red Flyer 25/1, Pair of AW wins at start of year and also successful on Rowley course at Newmarket in May. Career best when short-headed by Soapy Stevens at Newmarket (1¾m) before blowing the start at Goodwood.
5th
5th (1) Thunderous (7/1 +36%)
Thunderous

7/1(+36%)
(1) Thunderous 7/1, Front runner who ran up to his smart best when runner-up to Stradivarius in Yorkshire Cup in May. Fared as well as could be expected in the Goodwood Cup last month and this is his handicap debut.
6th
6th (2) Withhold (33/1 -65%)
Withhold

33/1(-65%)
(2) Withhold 33/1, Has plenty of form in top-level handicaps to his name but restricted to just 3 runs this season and he doesn't look the force of old, brushed aside over 20.5f at Goodwood 3 weeks ago. Usual cheekpieces back on.
7th
7th (12) Praiano (10/1 +29%)
Praiano

10/1(+29%)
(12) Praiano 10/1, Fitted with blinkers but still lacked a change of gear when second of 4 at Newmarket 12 days ago. Looks worth a go at this trip.
8th
8th (5) Rock Eagle (12/1 +0%)
Rock Eagle

12/1(+0%)
(5) Rock Eagle 12/1, Useful and consistent performer who was held up in a steadily-run race at Ascot's Shergar Cup meeting 11 days ago. That run can be excused and this shouldn't be a messy contest.
9th
9th (4) Master Milliner (5.5/1 +0%)
Master Milliner

Monsieur Lambrays

28/1(+0%)
(15) Monsieur Lambrays 28/1, First past the post here (1¾m) in June but demoted to second after causing interference. Never involved in the Northumberland Vase and application under pressure at Pontefract last time was concerning.
11th
11th (6) Red Verdon (40/1 -60%)
Red Verdon

(6) Red Verdon 40/1, Down in the weights but couldn't quite take advantage of a drop in grade when runner-up ay Beverley last month. Similar form when seventh in a better race at Ascot and this is deeper, still.
12th
12th (8) Soapy Stevens (4/1 +33%)
Soapy Stevens

4/1(+33%)
(8) Soapy Stevens 4/1, Improved performer this summer, supplementing his Chester win at Newmarket, finding plenty for pressure. Did really well to finish fourth at Goodwood given how free he was and that suggests his mark remains workable. Big player.

Pink Crystal

4.5/1(+10%)
(14) Pink Crystal 4.5/1, A filly firmly on the up, taking her record to 3-4 this year at Brighton (6f) 12 days ago, impressing with how she moved into contention from well back then holding an in-form rival. This her toughest assignment yet but with further progress likely, she's a must for the shortlist.

Sandbeck

9/1(+0%)
(6) Sandbeck 9/1, Made it 3 wins from her 4 starts for this yard with a career-best performance at Doncaster just under 7 weeks ago, readily having come through from the rear. This obviously much tougher but she could well have even more to offer.
4
4th (5) Cuban Breeze (5.5/1 +21%)

(5) Cuban Breeze 5.5/1, Thriving on her racing in a busy first year with David Evans, notching her fifth success of 2022 with another personal best in a competitive sprint at Windsor earlier this month. A credit to connections, and with Ryan Moore an eye-catching jockey booking, she's fancied to be in the mix again.

Peggy Sioux

(10) Peggy Sioux 33/1, Lightly-raced sort took a good step forward when third in the Palace of Holyroodhouse Stakes at Royal Ascot. Run possibly came too soon when down the field over this C&D next time (not ideally placed on the near side also) so she may well get back on track.

Attagirl

8th
8th (3) Corazon (9/1 +10%)
Corazon

9/1(+10%)
(3) Corazon 9/1, Dual 5f winner who made up into a useful filly at 2yrs. However she's developed a tendency to start slowly and while the handicapper has relinquished his grip somewhat, she's tough to fancy on recent evidence. Tongue tie applied today.
9th
9th (2) Guilded (14/1 -17%)
Guilded

(2) Guilded 14/1, Useful filly who reacted positively to cheekpieces when landing 5f Ayr listed contest (good to soft) in June. Too free when down the field in Group 3 at this track (6f) just under 6 weeks ago and needs to get back on track now switched to handicaps.
10th

11th

However she's failed to beat a rival on both subsequent outings but the handicapper has reacted accordingly and she's dangerous to discount with claimer taking off a further 7 lb off her back.
12th
12th (15) International Girl (9/1 -6%)
International Girl

9/1(-6%)
(15) International Girl 9/1, Proved better than ever to open her account for the season at this track (6f) last month, arguably worth marking up a little too given she was forced to make her effort more towards the near side. 7 lb rise to contend with today but she may well build on that success.
13th
13th (16) Selby's Pride (50/1 +24%)
Selby's Pride

50/1(+24%)
(16) Selby's Pride 50/1, Placed 3 times this season but not so good on her last couple of outings since the cheekpieces went on, promising more than she delivered for a long way when down the field at Carlisle last month. Tough to make a case for.
14th
14th (7) Sophie's Star (25/1 +24%)
Sophie's Star

25/1(+24%)
(7) Sophie's Star 25/1, Made winning yard debut at Musselburgh (5f) in June and matched that when fourth in a listed event at Ayr later that month. Not disgraced when fifth at Chester next start but unseated rider over 2f out with her saddle having slipped at Goodwood last month.
15th
15th (9) Anadora (16/1 +27%)
Anadora

16/1(+27%)
(9) Anadora 16/1, Hasn't kicked on from her excellent start to the season, down the field in competitive handicap at Newmarket (6f, good to firm) just under 6 weeks ago. Percentage call is to look elsewhere.
16th
16th (12) Ey Up It's Maggie (8/1 +56%)
Ey Up It's Maggie

8/1(+56%)
(12) Ey Up It's Maggie 8/1, In frame on first 5 starts this season and continued decent spell when fifth at Carlisle just under 6 weeks ago. Visor replaces the usual cheekpieces and no surprise should she run into a place back at this minimum trip.
17th
17th (17) Mejthaam (25/1 +0%)
Mejthaam

25/1(+0%)
(17) Mejthaam 25/1, Rather in-and-out this season, never looking like getting involved at Doncaster just under a fortnight ago. Interesting having dropped down to her last winning mark.

Mrs U S A

4/1(+0%)
(16) Mrs U S A 4/1, Improving filly who justified good support when getting off the mark in 5f maiden at Sandown (5/4) 28 days ago. Still not the finished article and she's a big player on her handicap debut with this step up to 6f a plus too.

Ramazan

6.5/1(-18%)
(9) Ramazan 6.5/1, Much improved on his nursery debut when making it 2-4 at Haydock (6f) 46 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Weighted to go close despite 7 lb rise (form been franked).

10/1(+29%)
(1) Legend Of Xanadu 10/1, Fairly useful form when landing 6f novices at Redcar and Epsom and good third to Chateau in listed race at Newbury. Only seventh of 8 to Royal Scotsman in Richmond Stakes (28/1) at Goodwood 20 days ago so needs to bounce back on his handicap debut.
(7) Rogue Spirit (11/1 +8%)

12/1(+14%)
(15) Braveheart Boy 12/1, 3/1, easily best effort to win 12-runner minor event at Pontefract (6f) 33 days ago, digging deep. Makes his handicap debut now and should have more to offer. In the picture.

Gifted Angel

20/1(+20%)

25/1(-39%)
(2) Bakeel 25/1, Debut winner at Ascot in April before good fifth to The Ridler in Norfolk Stakes there. Came in last of 6 to Rocket Rodney in listed race at Sandown (5f) 47 days ago though on his final run for Andrew Balding. More needed on his yard/handicap debut.

Shine's Ambition

25/1(+0%)
(18) Shine's Ambition 25/1, Excellent debut second in 6f Newcastle novice but he's failed to build on it despite coming in third in similar company at Chester and Pontefract. Lots more required here now going handicapping.

Beautiful Eyes

25/1(+24%)
(13) Beautiful Eyes 25/1, Professional in landing first 2 starts in maiden/novice company and acquitted herself with credit when fourth in listed event here in May. Below that level since, however, only 11th at Goodwood on switch to handicapping 19 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.

Shandy Star

28/1(-27%)
(10) Shandy Star 28/1, Quickly resumed winning ways in 5-runner nursery at Hamilton (6f) 18 days ago, staying on well. Can make her presence felt again despite taking a 4 lb rise in the weights.

Utilis

40/1(-21%)
(14) Utilis 40/1, Fair form when placed in 7f novice event at Doncaster and 6f maiden at Hamilton but below-par fourth in 7f Chester novice 17 days ago. Hood on 1st time for his handicap debut with a bit to prove.

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.
