5th 5th (5) (6/1 -20%) Casa Tall	6/1(-20%)	(5) Casa Tall 6/1, Pair of handicap chase wins this term and no disgrace in being unable to live with a smart prospect at Haydock last time. Likely to give another good account.
6th 6th (8) (8.5/1 -13%) Le Ligerien	8.5/1(-13%)	(8) Le Ligerien 8.5/1, Useful hurdler at peak and opened account over fences from reduced mark at Chepstow on heavy last month. Quickly back to form when second at Uttoxeter last week and claims if this not too soon.
7th 7th (1) (50/1 +0%) Jan Maat	50/1(+0%)	(1) Jan Maat 50/1, Useful chaser at his best for Henry de Bromhead but well held both starts over hurdles for new yard so plenty to prove back chasing.

1 1st (6) (33/1 -106%) Hold Onto The Line	33/1(-106%)	(6) Hold Onto The Line 33/1, £30,000 buy after finishing second in Irish point. Yet to better modest form in trio of maiden/novice hurdles at around 20f. Needs to find some improvement now handicapping.

4 4th (10) (11/1 -38%) That's Your Lottie	11/1(-38%)	(10) That's Your Lottie 11/1, 7-y-o mare who surpassed previous efforts under Rules when runner-up over 15.5f here in January, easily doing best of those ridden close up. Now her task is to back that up.
5th 5th (8) (16/1 -78%) Zara's Universe	16/1(-78%)	(8) Zara's Universe 16/1, Long-standing maiden who ran creditably without proving a match for an improving sort when 14 lengths second at Market Rasen (20.6f) on Boxing Day. May find a couple too good again.

(7) (11/1 +21%) Keep Rolling	11/1(+21%)	(7) Keep Rolling 11/1, Quickly resumed progress when getting off the mark over fences at Uttoxeter (20f) 3 weeks ago, drawing clear gradually. This is tougher up in trip, however. Engaged 1.00 Haydock Saturday.

\|U\| \|U\| (3) (6/1 +14%) Storm Arising	6/1(+14%)	(3) Storm Arising 6/1, Useful staying handicap hurdler who shaped as if he would learn from chase debut experience when third in novices' handicap at Chepstow (23.6f) over Christmas. Likely to leave that form behind.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (1) (1.62/1 +46%) Bothwell Bridge	1.62/1(+46%)	(1) Bothwell Bridge 1.62/1, Low-mileage 7-y-o who impressed when making a winning chase bow at Sandown (20f) in December. Fell early at Kempton (20.5f) on Boxing Day but he remains one to be positive about.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (2) (1.38/1 +45%) Clear The Runway	1.38/1(+45%)	(2) Clear The Runway 1.38/1, Positives to draw from all 4 hurdles starts this term, travelling well but failed to sustain effort at Fakenham last month. Placed in Irish points and interesting switched to fences in cheekpieces.
2 2nd (1) (3.33/1 +17%) Monsieur Co	3.33/1(+17%)	(1) Monsieur Co 3.33/1, Inconsistent and dropping in the weights without really looking ready to take advantage this term. On the plus side, this is a drop in grade and Brian Hughes takes over.
3 3rd (7) (8/1 -60%) Pakie's Dream	8/1(-60%)	(7) Pakie's Dream 8/1, Yet to score over fences but did at least halt the slide when a keeping-on fourth at Leicester a month ago.
4 4th (4) (4.5/1 -64%) Claret Dabbler	4.5/1(-64%)	(4) Claret Dabbler 4.5/1, Stepped up on initial efforts over fences when placed at Catterick last 2 starts after 6 months off, possibly doing too much too soon and worn down by a stronger stayer last time. Of interest.
5th 5th (6) (18/1 +36%) Choix Des Armes	18/1(+36%)	(6) Choix Des Armes 18/1, Winning hurdler for Paul Nicholls in 2018. Below that level in light career for this yard since and had never really convinced as a chaser.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (3) (18/1 -177%) Songofthelark	18/1(-177%)	(3) Songofthelark 18/1, Brother to useful hurdler/high-class chaser Invitation Only. Minor promise only over hurdles and made inauspicious start over fences, making mistakes before finally unseating at Newcastle.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (5) (20/1 -11%) Graystown	20/1(-11%)	(5) Graystown 20/1, Scored at Hexham (regular there) in October but pulled up next 2 starts. Kept the mistakes down when sixth at Catterick and now below last winning mark with usual cheekpieces back on.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (8) (20/1 +70%) Any Job Will Do	20/1(+70%)	(8) Any Job Will Do 20/1, Limited impact as a hurdler and has had a breathing operation ahead of chase debut.

2 2nd (1) (8/1 -14%) Fame And Concrete	8/1(-14%)	(1) Fame And Concrete 8/1, Well-bred 6-y-o who forged clear in impressive fashion when landing a bumper at Southwell in December 2020. Disappointing at Warwick 3 months later and makes return after 11 months off.
3 3rd (9) (3/1 +10%) Nollyador	3/1(+10%)	(9) Nollyador 3/1, Promise on all 3 starts, particularly when runner-up at Doncaster last month. A repeat of that effort puts him firmly in the thick of things again.
4 4th (3) (22/1 +0%) Avalanche Peak	22/1(+0%)	(3) Avalanche Peak 22/1, Soldier of Fortune gelding who showed a bit but looked clueless once coming under pressure when third in a Southwell bumper 10 weeks ago. Will need to have learnt plenty from that effort.
5th 5th (4) (25/1 -56%) Awaythelad	25/1(-56%)	(4) Awaythelad 25/1, Getaway gelding who shaped as if in need of run for fitness and experience when third at Utttoxeter on debut. Similar form at Exeter since and makes return after nearly 3 months off.
6th 6th (10) (8.5/1 -70%) Sandalwood	8.5/1(-70%)	(10) Sandalwood 8.5/1, Martaline gelding who shaped like a stayer when sixth of 10 in bumper at Sandown (16f, soft, 7/2) on debut in November. Every chance he will build on that effort so he makes the shortlist.
7th 7th (5) (16/1 -14%) Grand Knight	16/1(-14%)	(5) Grand Knight 16/1, Easy winner of his sole point and showed plenty of ability when second of 17 in Warwick bumper on debut. Had little go right at Southwell since (stumbled home turn) so worth another chance.
8th 8th (2) (10/1 -82%) Athgarvan	10/1(-82%)	(2) Athgarvan 10/1, Soldier of Fortune gelding who showed an encouraging amount of speed when runner-up in bumper at Ffos Las (15.8f, heavy, 6/1) on debut in December. Has since moved yards and he's not discounted.
9th 9th (8) (5/1 +50%) Nightboat To Cairo	5/1(+50%)	(8) Nightboat To Cairo 5/1, €80,000 3-y-o, second foal. Dam 19f-21f hurdle winner, half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 3¼m) Glacial Sunset and fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser Deep Sunset.
10th 10th (6) (40/1 +0%) Hi Riko	40/1(+0%)	(6) Hi Riko 40/1, Cokoriko gelding. Dam, French bumper winner, half-sister to fairly useful chaser (stayed 3¼m) Azrou d'Ex. Market can guide.

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.
