Class & Speed Card

It is very hard not to be swayed by NOBLE BEHEST's strike-rate on the AW, particularly when he's compared to today's opposition.
Class & Speed Card

Preference is for GETAWAY GORGEOUS who showed good bumper form and represents top connections who have previously targeted this race
Class & Speed Card

Ex-Ballydoyle maiden winner KANGAROO VALLEY was sixth on last month's hurdle/stable debut and can build on that run today.
Class & Speed Card

Tarnhelm should be a factor if they go hard enough up front but DOUBLE MARTINI is interesting upped to a 1m.
Class & Speed Card

Preference is for the experienced STILL ALIVE, who will be hard to beat if in the same form as at Limerick over Christmas
Class & Speed Card

Several to consider but RADDLE AND HUM (nap) was unfortunate to bump into a handicap blot at Wetherby last time and can go one better.
Class & Speed Card

Proceeding and HIGH FORT are closely matched on a previous clash but the selection impressed in winning here last time.
Class & Speed Card

Four runners and chances are this will be a tactical affair. The more of a test it becomes the better it will suit INSULT.
Class & Speed Card

The handicapper has given a good chance to MISDFLIGHT, who ought to benefit from today's return to good ground.
Class & Speed Card

A tight handicap can go to WINNING STREAK, who will be happier back on Tapeta after his Lingfield flop.
Class & Speed Card

TELMESOMETHINGGIRL is fancied to build on the promise of her first two starts.
Class & Speed Card

Bumper winner PILEON was a promising fourth in a hot Cheltenham novice on last month's hurdle debut and gets the nod.
Class & Speed Card

Having defied a difficult draw at Chelmsford last time, LOULIN is taken to follow up.
Class & Speed Card

The less exposed FIGHTING FIT(nap) could be the answer. He ran very well in the circumstances at Fairyhouse and could be hard to beat
Class & Speed Card

He may have been pulled up when back from an absence at Cheltenham last month but PICKAMIX ran well for a long way and gets the nod.
Class & Speed Card

John Gosden runs two potentially smart newcomers and on jockey bookings PITCHER'S POINT looks the pick ahead of Lordofthehorizon.
Class & Speed Card

BENEFIT RUN is better off at the weights and can reverse the form with ridge Native.
Class & Speed Card

The lightly raced 6yo NEFYN POINT remains open to further improvement and is preferred to handicap newcomer Perfect City.
Class & Speed Card

This can go to CORKED (nap), who showed a good attitude when scoring over C&D last month.
Class & Speed Card

Preference is for the ex-Paul Nicholls-trained SOME MAN, winner of his three point-to-points including two in October
Class & Speed Card

A chance is taken on GROVEMAN, who is competitively treated on last year's form and it was always a big ask at Sandown last time.
Class & Speed Card

Preference is for COVIGLIA, who scored over C&D on his recent return from a break and a 4lb rise for that success looks fair.
Class & Speed Card

He lacks a recent run and AW experience, but CLAREYBLUE boasts much the best form.
Class & Speed Card

4yo ROCA MAGICA finished well to go close at Lingfield ten days ago and has leading claims if she can back that up back up in trip.
Class & Speed Card

Recent C&D specialist PARKNACILLA has not quite had the rub of the green when runner-up on her last two starts.
Class & Speed Card

The well-bred AGENT SHIFTWELL (nap) made all at Wolverhampton and has plenty of scope for further progress on his handicap debut.
Class & Speed Card

Homesick Boy is clearly well capable of a very bold show but a bit more could be forthcoming from the lightly raced EZZRAH.
Class & Speed Card

Preference is for SEPAHI. Her latest effort was better than it looks, she's fairly treated and enjoys coming off a solid gallop.
Class & Speed Card

Arabian Moon has easily the best form but this is his sixth race. BRIGHT MELODY and Papa Power are eyecatching newcomers.

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.
