12:40 Catterick Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 25f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (3) (1.88/1 +6%) Guerlain De Vaux	1.88/1(+6%)	(3) Guerlain De Vaux 1.88/1, Showed plenty of ability when fifth of 15 in a 2m Chepstow bumper and made a winning start over hurdles in the style of a useful prospect at Market Rasen. Should stay and can defy a penalty.
2 2nd (2) (5/1 -25%) Gredin	5/1(-25%)	(2) Gredin 5/1, Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points. Made a successful start under Rules in a 2½m Carlisle novice hurdle. Not in same form under a penalty at Doncaster but worth another chance up in trip.
3 3rd (4) (1.5/1 +14%) Best Trition	1.5/1(+14%)	(4) Best Trition 1.5/1, Placed twice from 3 starts in Irish points and promising start to hurdles career when runner-up at Lingfield on October. Similar form when second at Carlisle should be in the mix again.
4 4th (1) (5.5/1 -22%) Starsky	5.5/1(-22%)	(1) Starsky 5.5/1, Off the mark in a couple of handicap hurdles this season. Seemed unsuited by testing conditions at Doncaster last time but looks vulnerable under a double penalty back in a novice.
5th 5th (5) (25/1 +11%) Sir Jim	25/1(+11%)	(5) Sir Jim 25/1, Well held in 2 bumpers. Off 12 months. Makes hurdles debut. Significantly up in trip.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (6) (100/1 +50%) Isla Diamonds	100/1(+50%)	(6) Isla Diamonds 100/1, Just modest form in bumpers and showed nothing on hurdle debut.

13:10 Catterick Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 25f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (2) (3.5/1 +13%) Jessiemac	3.5/1(+13%)	(2) Jessiemac 3.5/1, Got back on track when fifth of 10 in 3m handicap hurdle at Wetherby 40 days ago. Much respected in her bid for a second win here off a 2 lb lower mark.
2 2nd (8) (4/1 +60%) Baby Jane	4/1(+60%)	(8) Baby Jane 4/1, Maiden hurdler who signed off for last term with modest sixth in 23f handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter 7 months ago. Others are preferred.
3 3rd (4) (6.5/1 +19%) Winter Holiday	6.5/1(+19%)	(4) Winter Holiday 6.5/1, Points winner who was below par on yard bow when fourth of 7 in 23f handicap hurdle at Fakenham 25 days ago. Needs to get back on track.
4 4th (6) (3/1 -20%) Tanora	3/1(-20%)	(6) Tanora 3/1, Had wind op and tongue strap on when good second of 12 in handicap hurdle over C&D 12 days ago, faring best of those held up. Up 2 lb but not taken lightly.
5th 5th (3) (10/1 -67%) World Trip	10/1(-67%)	(3) World Trip 10/1, In good form until pulled up in 21f handicap hurdle at Exeter when she tried to refuse 3 out. Blinkers reached for now with something to prove, but is well handicapped.
6th 6th (9) (12/1 +52%) Seapoint	12/1(+52%)	(9) Seapoint 12/1, Arrives out of sorts, visor on when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (23.1f) 42 days ago. Blinkers go back on now but others remain more persuasive.
7th 7th (10) (12/1 -20%) Yorgunnabeamunky	12/1(-20%)	(10) Yorgunnabeamunky 12/1, Poor maiden hurdler. Only sixth of 14 in 23f handicap at Hexham 36 days ago, so it's easy to look elsewhere from 5 lb out of the handicap.
8th 8th (5) (10/1 -122%) Velkera	10/1(-122%)	(5) Velkera 10/1, Still a maiden, and she turned in below-par fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (22.7f) when last seen out 9 months ago. Needs to hit the ground running on her return.
\|U\| \|U\| (11) (100/1 -150%) Madam Scully	100/1(-150%)	(11) Madam Scully 100/1, Remains a maiden after 17 runs, and well-held fifth of 7 in handicap chase here 16 days ago. Hard to fancy back over hurdles from 7 lb out of the handicap.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (7) (40/1 +0%) That's My Dubai	40/1(+0%)	(7) That's My Dubai 40/1, Landed this contest 12 months ago but off since pulled up in 20f handicap at Hexham 104 days ago. Has it to prove now.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (6) (20/1 +0%) Royal Act	20/1(+0%)	(6) Royal Act 20/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2019 and went with no encouragement at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve after a respectable fourth over this C&D on return. 6 lb out of handicap.
2 2nd (7) (25/1 +50%) Yourholidayisover	25/1(+50%)	(7) Yourholidayisover 25/1, Irresolute veteran who boasts a very poor strike rate and doesn't make much appeal. 7 lb out of handicap.
3 3rd (3) (2.5/1 +29%) Kingston King	2.5/1(+29%)	(3) Kingston King 2.5/1, Off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in June and back to winning ways under an attacking ride over C&D last month. Possibly overdid things at Ffos Las last week and type to bounce back.
4 4th (5) (7.5/1 -36%) Altumanina	7.5/1(-36%)	(5) Altumanina 7.5/1, Had looked limited though her latest second to Kingston King over C&D was a career best, albeit flattered by proximity to idling winner. 2 lb out of handicap.
\|U\| \|U\| (1) (3/1 -50%) Fazayte	3/1(-50%)	(1) Fazayte 3/1, Well held on sole start last season but shaped as if retaining all of ability on second start back. Bred to make a chaser (out of a half-sister to top-class Cyrname) and makes chase bow in weak race.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (2.75/1 +0%) Ring The Moon	2.75/1(+0%)	(2) Ring The Moon 2.75/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps fitted with cheekpieces/tongue tie last winter. Well held 3 starts since though hinted at a revival on second start back at Ffos Las last week. Needs considering.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (4) (9/1 -13%) Wildkatze	9/1(-13%)	(4) Wildkatze 9/1, Modest form in a hurdle run when trained in France. Made first impact for this yard when runner-up in handicap chase at Fakenham 12 days ago, albeit no match for winner. 2 lb out of weights.

13:40 Catterick Handicap Chase (Class 5) 25f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (9) (66/1 -100%) The Very Thing	66/1(-100%)	(9) The Very Thing 66/1, Long-standing maiden who has cut little ice in 3 attempts over fences, including pulled up in C&D handicap won by Tumbling Dice on New Year's Day. Remains to be seen if visor makes any difference.
2 2nd (3) (3.5/1 -17%) No Cruise Yet	3.5/1(-17%)	(3) No Cruise Yet 3.5/1, Good start for new yard, winning at Sedgefield before chasing home a progressive type over C&D. Looks sure to be in the thick of things again.
3 3rd (8) (9/1 +18%) Hidden Cargo	9/1(+18%)	(8) Hidden Cargo 9/1, Remains a maiden after 27 starts but he did step up on his comeback run at Hexham last month when 5 lengths third to Tumbling Dice over C&D on New Year's Day.
4 4th (2) (2.25/1 +36%) Melanamix	2.25/1(+36%)	(2) Melanamix 2.25/1, Point winner who displayed some promise over hurdles and has been placed in handicaps around 2½m at Ayr and here since switching to fences. Interesting now back up in trip.
5th 5th (4) (80/1 -220%) Supreme Steel	80/1(-220%)	(4) Supreme Steel 80/1, Veteran who capitalised on a much-reduced mark at Hexham in October. Would have been second at Sedgefield 5 days later but for falling at the last but well below par both runs since.
\|F\| \|F\| (7) (2.25/1 +25%) Tumbling Dice	2.25/1(+25%)	(7) Tumbling Dice 2.25/1, Reacted positively to cheekpieces when seeing off 8 rivals over C&D on New Year's Day. Contender if the headgear continues to have a positive effect.
\|U\| \|U\| (5) (7.5/1 -88%) Fame And Hope	7.5/1(-88%)	(5) Fame And Hope 7.5/1, Maiden hurdler, although she was second in a 23f Hexham handicap last month. Lesser run here on New Year's Day. Makes chase debut.
\|U\| \|U\| (1) (16/1 -88%) Spider's Bite	16/1(-88%)	(1) Spider's Bite 16/1, Close second at Perth (3m) in August and took a step back in the right direction of sorts at Musselburgh last month. Hard to make a strong case for but interesting that Brian Hughes retains the ride.
\|U\| \|U\| (6) (28/1 +0%) Hidden Glen	28/1(+0%)	(6) Hidden Glen 28/1, Well treated on his best form but wasn't with Dr Richard Newland long and he's finished well held in 5 runs for current yard. All to prove.

13:50 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (3) (2.75/1 -22%) Percy Willis	2.75/1(-22%)	(3) Percy Willis 2.75/1, Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 17 days ago. Generally consistent and drop back in trip should suit, so can make presence felt.
2 2nd (2) (25/1 +0%) Collaborating	25/1(+0%)	(2) Collaborating 25/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, first run since leaving Patrick Neville when ninth of 10 in handicap at this course 16 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Needs to bounce back.
3 3rd (5) (3.33/1 +52%) Mr Shady	3.33/1(+52%)	(5) Mr Shady 3.33/1, Last of 7 in handicap (22/1) at Bath (10.2f, firm). Off 6 months. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving J. S. Moore. Cheekpieces back on. Has good chance on pick of form.
4 4th (1) (8.5/1 -31%) Mahanakhon Power	8.5/1(-31%)	(1) Mahanakhon Power 8.5/1, First run since leaving Martin Keighley when ninth of 14 in handicap at this course 23 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Tongue strap on 1st time. Type to bounce back quickly.
5th 5th (6) (2/1 +0%) Wadacre Gogo	2/1(+0%)	(6) Wadacre Gogo 2/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in August. Second of 4 in handicap (4/1) at Chelmsford City (13.3f) 42 days ago, well positioned. Arrives in top form, so should put up another bold bid.
6th 6th (7) (18/1 -100%) New Delhi Express	18/1(-100%)	(7) New Delhi Express 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. 14/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, soft) 18 days ago. Back down in trip. Others more persuasive.
7th 7th (8) (28/1 +30%) Walkonby	28/1(+30%)	(8) Walkonby 28/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2020. 18/1, seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle at Musselburgh (15.6f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Poor on last Flat outing. Hard to fancy.
8th 8th (4) (10/1 -43%) Battle Of Wills	10/1(-43%)	(4) Battle Of Wills 10/1, Course winner. Third of 6 in handicap (40/1) at this C&D 23 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Can't be completely discounted from a sliding mark.
9th 9th (9) (150/1 -200%) Allerthorpe	150/1(-200%)	(9) Allerthorpe 150/1, Twelfth of 14 in minor event (125/1) at this C&D 9 days ago. Doesn't appear to retain much ability, so makes little appeal.

14:00 Bangor Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (2) (8/1 -14%) Snuff Box	8/1(-14%)	(2) Snuff Box 8/1, C&D winner who ended last term with success in a Haydock veterans' event (25.5f) in April. Not threatened either outing this campaign, including over 30.7f at Exeter latest but mark is easing at least
2 2nd (8) (1.75/1 +61%) One Fer Mamma	1.75/1(+61%)	(8) One Fer Mamma 1.75/1, Fair maiden hurdler who confirmed chase debut promise when running out a wide-margin winner over 3m at Uttoxeter 2 weeks ago. Did jump markedly left late on but has to merit respect nevertheless.
3 3rd (6) (10/1 +9%) Good And Hardy	10/1(+9%)	(6) Good And Hardy 10/1, Dual hurdles winner during 2019/20 campaign but failed to complete on 3 of his 4 starts over fences last term. Below best over hurdles of late but afforded a chance by the assessor returned to chasing
4 4th (10) (16/1 +0%) Asking For Answers	16/1(+0%)	(10) Asking For Answers 16/1, Won first 2 starts last term (both at 3m). Returned with good second at Hexham and perhaps best to ignore his subsequent Borders National run as he was a long way out of the handicap. Visor back on.
5th 5th (5) (11/1 -47%) Potters Venture	11/1(-47%)	(5) Potters Venture 11/1, Fairly useful hurdler who wasn't disgraced on return/chase debut at Warwick in November. Yet to be asked for effort when falling at Chepstow (23.6f) since and he remains with potential in this sphere.
6th 6th (7) (9/1 +18%) Fleminport	9/1(+18%)	(7) Fleminport 9/1, Unreliable type who ran only a little better than on return when seventh of 10 at Taunton (23f) 2 weeks ago, going in snatches. Yard look to hold stronger claims with Clondaw Promise.
\|F\| \|F\| (3) (3.5/1 -56%) Clondaw Promise	3.5/1(-56%)	(3) Clondaw Promise 3.5/1, On the up fitted with cheekpieces over fences, following up his Lingfield success (20f) at Uttoxeter (22.5f, heavy) well served by the emphasis on stamina. One to keep on side back up at 3m.
\|U\| \|U\| (1) (20/1 -67%) Joueur Bresilien	20/1(-67%)	(1) Joueur Bresilien 20/1, Doubled his tally in this sphere at Stratford (22.5f) last March. Not scaled same heights either start since, including on return at Chepstow last month. Still, return to testing ground may help.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (4) (14/1 -133%) Ballycross	14/1(-133%)	(4) Ballycross 14/1, Veteran chaser who wasn't seen to best effect when third at Southwell (3m) in May, keeping on from 2 out without posing a threat. Potentially well treated if he can put it all together on return.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (9) (28/1 +15%) Cadeau Du Bresil	28/1(+15%)	(9) Cadeau Du Bresil 28/1, Thrived during early 2019, landing pair of Plumpton handicaps (25.7f) either side of a good second over C&D. Well held final start that year though and absent since. Had wind op.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (0.2/1 +33%) A Different Kind	0.2/1(+33%)	(1) A Different Kind 0.2/1, Exciting prospect who landed both starts in bumpers and maintained 100% record over hurdles when landing 3-runner event under a penalty at Haydock (15.6f) last month. Hard to oppose.
2 2nd (4) (12/1 -33%) Lalochezia	12/1(-33%)	(4) Lalochezia 12/1, Promising start when runner-up on debut in a Hexham maiden hurdle (23.3f) on debut in May but not kicked on subsequently, pulled up over hurdles/fences more recently. Questions to answer for now.
3 3rd (2) (7.5/1 -67%) Any Givin Sunday	7.5/1(-67%)	(2) Any Givin Sunday 7.5/1, Bumper winner in Ireland for Tom Taaffe who made a successful start over hurdles for new yard at Huntingdon (15.8f) in October. Struggled under a penalty at Plumpton since, though.
4 4th (3) (18/1 +45%) Johnson's Blue	18/1(+45%)	(3) Johnson's Blue 18/1, Westerner gelding. Dam (c97/h104) bumper/19f hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Likely best watched unless market vibes are particularly positive on racecourse bow.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (6) (3.33/1 -33%) Blazing Hot	3.33/1(-33%)	(6) Blazing Hot 3.33/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. 2/1, respectable third of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 8 days ago. Has started well for this yard, and another bold showing seems likely.
2 2nd (4) (2.75/1 +31%) Swiss Connection	2.75/1(+31%)	(4) Swiss Connection 2.75/1, 3-time C&D winner. One win from 3 runs last year. 8/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 33 days ago. Should strip fitter for latest outing, so merits respect from a fair mark.
3 3rd (5) (11/1 -83%) Ubahha	11/1(-83%)	(5) Ubahha 11/1, 11/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 22 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Doesn't appear to be firing at present.
4 4th (9) (5.5/1 +15%) Oriental Lilly	5.5/1(+15%)	(9) Oriental Lilly 5.5/1, 4-time C&D winner. Latest win here in November. 14/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 12 days ago. Type to bounce back quickly, with this track more to her liking.
5th 5th (7) (5.5/1 +15%) For Peat's Sake	5.5/1(+15%)	(7) For Peat's Sake 5.5/1, C&D winner. Sixth of 9 in handicap (11/2) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 10 days ago. Consistent in the main, so likely to bounce back in first-time visor. Worth considering with useful claimer back on board.
6th 6th (8) (7/1 +22%) Stroxx	7/1(+22%)	(8) Stroxx 7/1, Below form seventh of 14 in handicap at Southwell (5f, 3/1) 28 days ago. Hard to rely on but capable off this mark on a going day.
7th 7th (2) (66/1 -120%) Tistaahal	66/1(-120%)	(2) Tistaahal 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, first run since leaving Marcus Tregoning when last of 8 in minor event at this course (6f) 23 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Uphill task.
8th 8th (3) (12/1 -71%) Kaafy	12/1(-71%)	(3) Kaafy 12/1, One win from 3 runs last year. Didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 9/2), just holding on. Off 9 months. Not certain to be fully tuned up.
9th 9th (1) (18/1 -29%) Scale Force	18/1(-29%)	(1) Scale Force 18/1, Three wins from 14 runs last year. 33/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 15 days ago. Struggling for form at present.

2 2nd (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Barrowdale	3.5/1(-17%)	(1) Barrowdale 3.5/1, 7/4, looked in need of the experience when second of 11 in bumper here 34 days ago. Much respeced now going over hurdles for yard among the winners.
3 3rd (5) (28/1 -100%) Rachel Louise	28/1(-100%)	(5) Rachel Louise 28/1, Fair form in bumpers and making encouraging hurdling bow (in second) fell last in 20f novice at Hereford 50 days ago. More is needed here, however, if she's to trouble the principals.
4 4th (4) (1.2/1 +13%) Reilly	1.2/1(+13%)	(4) Reilly 1.2/1, Runner-up on both his starts in this sphere, failing to land the odds in 3-runner novice hurdle at Leicester (20.5f) 46 days ago. In good hands and firmly in the picture once more.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (5/1 +17%) Supreme Escape	5/1(+17%)	(4) Supreme Escape 5/1, Low-mileage 8-y-o who scored twice over fences last term. However, his profile is starting to look rather patchy, well held over both hurdles and fences on his last 2 outings. Visor applied.
2 2nd (1) (3.33/1 +39%) Almazhar Garde	3.33/1(+39%)	(1) Almazhar Garde 3.33/1, Useful handicap chaser who picked up 2 wins last season. Better than ever when second in Southern National at Fontwell but finished well held after making a noteable error in Borders National since.
3 3rd (8) (3.2/1 +47%) Who's In The Box	3.2/1(+47%)	(8) Who's In The Box 3.2/1, Improved for a switch to fences last season, scoring at Market Rasen before backing it up with a couple of good seconds. Yet to fire this season so he's dropping in the weights. Headgear back on.
4 4th (7) (8/1 +11%) Classic Escape	8/1(+11%)	(7) Classic Escape 8/1, Ran about as well as could be expected when fourth in handicap hurdle here in November but not in same form at Uttoxeter since. Has left Dr Richard Newland and given a chance by the handicapper.
5th 5th (5) (10/1 -18%) Chef D'oeuvre	10/1(-18%)	(5) Chef D'oeuvre 10/1, Possesses deep reserves of stamina but seemed to find it too much of a test when pulled up at Haydock a fortnight ago. Now 4 lb below his last winning mark so considered with blinkers back on.
6th 6th (6) (16/1 -33%) Mance Rayder	16/1(-33%)	(6) Mance Rayder 16/1, Durable sort who was right on his game when runner-up here in November. Faced a stiff task from 4 lb out of the weights last time so not ruled out back up in distance here.
\|F\| \|F\| (2) (4/1 -167%) Sidi Ismael	4/1(-167%)	(2) Sidi Ismael 4/1, Won staying Kelso handicap hurdle for Keith Dalgleish in April and made it 3 from 3 for this yard on at Market Rasen on Boxing Day. Up another 8 lb but open to further progress over marathon trips.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (3) (22/1 +12%) William Of Orange	22/1(+12%)	(3) William Of Orange 22/1, Won 3 handicap chases for this yard in 2021 but has been pulled up on his last 3 starts, so has plenty of questions to answer at present.

4 4th (6) (6.5/1 +64%) Going Underground	6.5/1(+64%)	(6) Going Underground 6.5/1, Creditable sixth of 10 in handicap (40/1) at this course (8f) 16 days ago. Back up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time. Well handicapped if he can build on latest effort.
5th 5th (5) (125/1 -56%) Zumaaty	125/1(-56%)	(5) Zumaaty 125/1, 50/1, last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 40 days ago. Plenty to prove at present.
6th 6th (4) (3/1 +40%) Starfighter	3/1(+40%)	(4) Starfighter 3/1, C&D winner. Fourth of 6 in handicap (9/4) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 24 days ago. Can't be discounted from a sliding mark.
7th 7th (7) (6/1 +33%) Termonator	6/1(+33%)	(7) Termonator 6/1, Course winner. 15/2, respectable second of 16 in handicap at Thirsk (12f, good to firm). Off 8 months. Might strip fitter for this return.

1 1st (1) (0.5/1 +6%) Green Vault	0.5/1(+6%)	(1) Green Vault 0.5/1, Irish bumper winner who is going right way over hurdles, making winning start in handicaps at Ayr (21.5f, heavy) 4 days ago. Escapes penalty as that was a conditional jockeys' event. Obvious claims.
2 2nd (2) (14/1 +13%) Sutton Manor	14/1(+13%)	(2) Sutton Manor 14/1, Veteran who arrives here on a long losing run, although latest Hexham fifth was a bit better. Place claims on that form, but Green Vault looks very much the stable first string.
3 3rd (5) (4/1 -33%) Diakosaint	4/1(-33%)	(5) Diakosaint 4/1, Winning Irish pointer but no real spark over hurdles, finishing last of 10 in 3m Perth handicap when last seen in September. Cheekpieces added after a break. Could only consider if backed.
4 4th (6) (12/1 -9%) Moidore	12/1(-9%)	(6) Moidore 12/1, Not won for a while but his latest third of 15 at Wetherby reads reasonably well in the context of this race. Each-way shout if in the same form.
5th 5th (3) (25/1 +0%) Quick Pick	25/1(+0%)	(3) Quick Pick 25/1, Long time since he last hit the target and he'll need to have come on a fair bit for last month's Lingfield reappearance.
6th 6th (8) (100/1 +0%) Definately Vinnie	100/1(+0%)	(8) Definately Vinnie 100/1, Lightly raced in recent times and doesn't look to retain a great deal of ability.
7th 7th (4) (10/1 +50%) Call Simon	10/1(+50%)	(4) Call Simon 10/1, Modest maiden hurdler who has been well beaten in a pair of handicaps so far this season. Mark on the slide but need to see more.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (7) (20/1 -25%) African Glory	20/1(-25%)	(7) African Glory 20/1, Poor maiden handicap hurdler but he did leave the impression he'll be suited by this step back up in trip when plugging on for fifth at Ayr (20.5f) 11 days ago. 4 lb out of weights.

1 1st (5) (0.91/1 +52%) Art Of Diplomacy	0.91/1(+52%)	(5) Art Of Diplomacy 0.91/1, On the up having joined his current stable, scoring at Ludlow, then pulling a long way clear with another improver at Hereford 9 days ago. Capable of getting back to winning ways.
2 2nd (2) (3/1 -9%) Bill Baxter	3/1(-9%)	(2) Bill Baxter 3/1, Useful bumper winner who opened his account in this sphere in a 20f novice at Ayr in November. Went off too hard there last time, and remains with potential.
3 3rd (6) (4.5/1 -64%) Be The Difference	4.5/1(-64%)	(6) Be The Difference 4.5/1, Big improvement to land a double at Ayr, then acquitted himself well when third at Ffos Las in December. That form looks solid and another bold showing seems likely if he gets home.
4 4th (1) (25/1 -56%) Dalyotin	25/1(-56%)	(1) Dalyotin 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler and chaser for Y.Fourin in France, successful twice over the larger obstacles in 2020/21. Disappointing start over hurdles debuting for new yard at Haydock, though.
5th 5th (3) (14/1 +13%) Sermando	14/1(+13%)	(3) Sermando 14/1, Impressed when opening his account over hurdles at Huntingdon (20.6f) during early 2020. More miss than hit subsequently, though, tailed-off sixth at Lingfield last time. Unproven over this far.
6th 6th (4) (16/1 +20%) Perfect Man	16/1(+20%)	(4) Perfect Man 16/1, Landed a Leicester seller for Olly Murphy 12 months ago but winless for Sophie Leech and generally below form for current stable. Others make more appeal.

2 2nd (2) (2.5/1 -43%) Eaton Collina	2.5/1(-43%)	(2) Eaton Collina 2.5/1, Shaped encouragingly first 2 starts over hurdles and benefitted from the return to further when third at Ffos Las when last seen in May. Down 5 lb so obvious claims if ready to roll.
3 3rd (5) (3/1 +60%) Gerolamo Cardano	3/1(+60%)	(5) Gerolamo Cardano 3/1, Made winning hurdles bow at Hereford 2 years ago but has largely disappointed since, off the bridle a long way out when last seen at Worcester last July. Mark continues to tumble.
4 4th (4) (3.5/1 -27%) Oxwich Bay	3.5/1(-27%)	(4) Oxwich Bay 3.5/1, Fair hurdler who shaped as if better for the run when fourth at Chepstow in October. Mark eases a touch further and there's races to be won with him from this sort of mark. Cheekpieces back on.
5th 5th (3) (22/1 -57%) Stamina Chope	22/1(-57%)	(3) Stamina Chope 22/1, Fair maiden hurdler at best but ran below that form setting out for another new yard after 8 months off at Fontwell in September. Tailed-off a fortnight later and best wactched on reappearance.

(1) (5.5/1 -10%) Curious Times	5.5/1(-10%)	(1) Curious Times 5.5/1, Off 13 months following a fall but positives to take from sixth-place finish at Fairyhouse 12 days ago. Turned out relatively quickly but he's in good hands.
(8) (28/1 +0%) Khanmurjan	28/1(+0%)	(8) Khanmurjan 28/1, Off 10 months and has looked like one with problems this term, reportedly bled at Newcastle in November.
1 1st (5) (1.38/1 +39%) Anyharminasking	1.38/1(+39%)	(5) Anyharminasking 1.38/1, Bought for €145,000 after winning sole point and stepped up on hurdling debut when collared close home 2m maiden at Worcester. Similar effort at Uttoxeter and retains potential now handicapping.
2 2nd (4) (9/1 +36%) Sayar	9/1(+36%)	(4) Sayar 9/1, Has never stood much racing and losing sequence dates back to 2017. Back on track to an extent when third at Market Rasen 3 weeks ago but he was allowed the run of things.
3 3rd (6) (6/1 -9%) Kensington Art	6/1(-9%)	(6) Kensington Art 6/1, Kempton scorer who backed it up with good second in 2m handicap hurdle at Newcastle (16.2f) in November, keeping on. 19.3f may have stretched his stamina last time.
4 4th (3) (20/1 +29%) Pawpaw	20/1(+29%)	(3) Pawpaw 20/1, Made a good start over hurdles (won Southwell 2m maiden in April) but failed to fire in 3 runs in handicaps during the autumn. Tongue tie reached for.
5th 5th (7) (3/1 +10%) Pearl Warrior	3/1(+10%)	(7) Pearl Warrior 3/1, Four-time winner on the Flat in Ireland. Patchy form on the level for new yard this year but more like it over hurdles, runner-up on handicap debut at Market Rasen last month.
6th 6th (2) (6/1 +20%) Thatsy	6/1(+20%)	(2) Thatsy 6/1, Useful ex-Irish hurdler. Yet to score over fences but offered a bit more for this yard when second here 12 days ago. Back over timber with a tongue tie back on.
\|U\| \|U\| (9) (22/1 +21%) Zamond	22/1(+21%)	(9) Zamond 22/1, Fair ex-Irish 17f winner who wasn't disgraced for his new yard when fourth of 13 in 2m novice hurdle at Bangor. In nothing like the same form at Wetherby since.

1 1st (4) (3.2/1 +20%) Devasboy	3.2/1(+20%)	(4) Devasboy 3.2/1, Winner over 7f at Brighton in September. 3/1, did too much too soon when fourth of 5 over 1m here last week and the drop back to 7f should be in his favour.
2 2nd (3) (2.5/1 +44%) Straits Of Moyle	2.5/1(+44%)	(3) Straits Of Moyle 2.5/1, Fairly useful form. Won 6f nurseries at Catterick and Ayr in September. Respectable fourth of 7 in nursery (9/4) at this course (6f) 33 days ago. First attempt beyond sprint trips.
3 3rd (1) (3/1 -20%) Dairerin	3/1(-20%)	(1) Dairerin 3/1, Dual winner over sprint trips on turf early last summer. Off since down the field in French Group 3 in August. Will need a very useful effort to overcome this mark on his return.

2 2nd (7) (6.5/1 +54%) Prime Time Lady	6.5/1(+54%)	(7) Prime Time Lady 6.5/1, Placed in points and faced a stiff task when down the field in a listed bumper at Cheltenham on Rules debut. Worth a market check switched to hurdling.
3 3rd (1) (3.33/1 -11%) Billams Legacy	3.33/1(-11%)	(1) Billams Legacy 3.33/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who shaped well for a long way when fourth in a novice at Wincanton on hurdling debut. Tongue tie now fitted, and she should improve if settling better.
4 4th (10) (18/1 +45%) Taragrace	18/1(+45%)	(10) Taragrace 18/1, Placed on completed start in Irish points but minimal promise so far under Rules. Likely to do better in handicaps after this outing.
5th 5th (6) (11/1 -57%) Maid On The Moon	11/1(-57%)	(6) Maid On The Moon 11/1, Left debut form behind when third in a bumper at Fontwell 8 months ago and she's out of a winning hurdler, so not a forlorn hope having her first go in this sphere.
6th 6th (2) (6.5/1 +77%) Bonnie Bresil	6.5/1(+77%)	(2) Bonnie Bresil 6.5/1, Dam won over hurdles but didn't make any great impact in bumpers, so she's probably more of a long-term prospect.
7th 7th (8) (3.33/1 -33%) Rock Of Fame	3.33/1(-33%)	(8) Rock Of Fame 3.33/1, Fair maiden on the Flat and returned from a lengthy absence with a promising hurdling debut in a novice at Lingfield 49 days ago. Open to improvement and likely to take a hand.
8th 8th (9) (125/1 -25%) Shantou Boudicca	125/1(-25%)	(9) Shantou Boudicca 125/1, Smallish mare who made little impact in bumpers and makes no appeal on first go at hurdling.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (3) (250/1 +0%) Celestial Light	250/1(+0%)	(3) Celestial Light 250/1, Well held in 2 bumpers last winner and returned with a tame display (pulled up) at Ludlow on hurdling bow. Easily opposed.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (5) (300/1 -20%) Lucky Monarch	300/1(-20%)	(5) Lucky Monarch 300/1, No show in bumpers and similar story over hurdles more recently. Impossible to fancy.

1 1st (2) (1/1 +43%) Whittle Le Woods	1/1(+43%)	(2) Whittle Le Woods 1/1, Made an encouraging start for shrewd new connections when close second at Newcastle (6f) last week. Leading claims with the step back up to 7f likely to help if anything.
2 2nd (7) (3.5/1 +13%) Legende D'Art	3.5/1(+13%)	(7) Legende D'Art 3.5/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 12-runner C&D handicap 35 days ago. Had a couple of next-time-out winners in behind him on that occasion so a 3 lb rise looks fair. Cheekpieces back on. Considered.
3 3rd (1) (12/1 -71%) Full Intention	12/1(-71%)	(1) Full Intention 12/1, Five-time C&D winner, including on his latet start in October. Only 1 lb higher so likely to have a say if returning from a break in similar form.

5th 5th (5) (7/1 -40%) Porfin	7/1(-40%)	(5) Porfin 7/1, Thriving for new yard, winning 3 times between 5f and 7f in recent weeks. Just stretched by 1m at Lingfield 6 days ago and likely he's still in good form.
6th 6th (3) (10/1 -100%) Good Humor	10/1(-100%)	(3) Good Humor 10/1, Career best when winning 13-runner handicap at Kempton (7f) in October (final start for Roger Varian). Tongue strap on first time. Interesting to see how he goes in betting on yard debut.

3 3rd (6) (3.5/1 +13%) Million Reasons	3.5/1(+13%)	(6) Million Reasons 3.5/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. 2/1, respectable fourth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 8 days ago. Merits consideration.
4 4th (4) (18/1 -13%) Lady Monica	18/1(-13%)	(4) Lady Monica 18/1, Modest mare. Below form fifth of 10 in minor event (18/1) at this course (6f) 7 days ago. Others make more appeal.
5th 5th (12) (5/1 -67%) Western Music	5/1(-67%)	(12) Western Music 5/1, Lightly-raced filly. Best effort to date when third of 14 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 27 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Stall 11 not ideal but considered nevertheless on polytrack bow.

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.
