Races & Results Saturday 25th February 2023
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(10) Rambo T 0.53/1, Useful bumper winner who has made a decent start over hurdles, probably not seen to best effect when second at Uttoxeter 4 weeks ago, lacking the change of pace of a winner who was useful on the Flat. Longer trip should suit and he looks the way to go.
2
2nd (2) (12/1 -118%) A Definite Getaway
12/1(-118%)
(2) A Definite Getaway 12/1, Well held at Southwell last time but his previous Huntingdon fourth in a stronger-looking race looks solid.
3
3rd (3) (8.5/1 +39%) Big Blue Moon
8.5/1(+39%)
(3) Big Blue Moon 8.5/1, Showed more than on his hurdling debut when third at Exeter 7 weeks ago having been better placed. Has races in him.
4
4th (14) (150/1 -50%) Lucky Draw
150/1(-50%)
(14) Lucky Draw 150/1, Modest on the Flat and hard to fancy on hurdles debut for new yard.
5th
5th (11) (50/1 -52%) Rivers Corner
50/1(-52%)
(11) Rivers Corner 50/1, Modest in bumpers and shaped with a little encouragement making hurdling bow at Fontwell 4 weeks ago. One for the longer term.
6th
6th (8) (12/1 +0%) Hill Of Tara
12/1(+0%)
(8) Hill Of Tara 12/1, From a good jumping family and offered a bit in Warwick bumper in December 2021.
7th
7th (5) (33/1 +34%) Dear Ralphy
33/1(+34%)
(5) Dear Ralphy 33/1, Promise in bumpers/2 runs over hurdles, looking one for staying handicaps in the longer term.

8th (1) (100/1 +0%) Abbeyhill

|F|
|F| (4) (5/1 -100%) Boom Boom
5/1(-100%)
(4) Boom Boom 5/1, Fairly useful form when placed both starts in bumpers last season but he came in only eighth on his hurdling bow in 19f Ascot novice in November. Back from a wind op now and remains with potential for leading yard.
|F|
|F| (7) (10/1 -18%) El Rio
10/1(-18%)

LTO Selection:
12:47 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(5) Forge Valley Lad 3.2/1, 10/3, career best when winning 10-runner handicap at this course (1¼m) 22 days ago, always doing enough after quickening to the front. A 2 lb nudge is unlikely to prevent another bold bid.
2
2nd (2) (7.5/1 +6%) Renardeau
7.5/1(+6%)
(2) Renardeau 7.5/1, Three-time C&D winner. Also won a maiden hurdle in summer 2021. Off 16 months, shaped well when length third of 9 to Later Darling in handicap at Kempton 24 days ago, finishing with running left. Claims if he can build on that.
3

12/1(+0%)
(10) Murhib 12/1, Course winner but comfortably held in 2 comeback outings in recent weeks, albeit he met trouble here latterly.
6th
6th (6) (2/1 +40%) Later Darling
2/1(+40%)
(6) Later Darling 2/1, Placed twice here before winning 9-runner handicap at Kempton (1½m) 24 days ago. Only 2 lb higher now and he's yet to finish out of the first 3 on polytrack. Likely to go well again.
7th
7th (7) (8/1 +43%) Largo Bay
8/1(+43%)
(7) Largo Bay 8/1, C&D winner. Four wins from 12 runs last year. 5/1, 4¾ lengths eighth of 9 to Later Darling in handicap at Kempton (1½m) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.
8th

50/1(-669%)
(1) Crescent Lake 50/1, AW winner in Ireland last summer. Respectable sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle there when last seen in October (final start for Terence O'Brien). One to note in the betting now starting out for Gary Moore.

6.5/1(+24%)
(4) Zhang Fei 6.5/1, Winner at Windsor in August. 5/1, respectable third of 8 in C&D handicap 80 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.

2
2nd (5) (1.88/1 +44%) Mavis Pike
1.88/1(+44%)
(5) Mavis Pike 1.88/1, Improved from debut when fourth at Huntingdon last time and another step forward would give her an excellent chance in this lesser event.
3
3rd (6) (14/1 -17%) Storm Spirit
14/1(-17%)
(6) Storm Spirit 14/1, Passing Glance filly. Dam unraced. Not an obvious sort on paper.
4

8/1(-23%)
(7) Woogrey 8/1, Showed some ability when third of 9 in bumper (22/1) at Newcastle (16.2f, standard) but failed to back it up at Market Rasen 18 days ago. Needs to bounce back.

200/1(-300%)
(2) Forceta 200/1, Life Force mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Billable Grant. Dam unraced. Unlikely to feature.

6.5/1(+19%)
(4) Miss Arabella 6.5/1, Related to winners and hinted at ability at Newcastle first time out. Not seen for 100 days and needs to step up markedly.

2
2nd (2) (2.25/1 +25%) Bertie Blue
2.25/1(+25%)
(2) Bertie Blue 2.25/1, Blue Bresil gelding who showed fairly useful form in bumpers and caught the eye on his hurdling bow when running-on third of 10 at Plumpton (2m4f) last month. Firmly in the picture.

18/1(+10%)
(8) Ito Ditto 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden who hinted at promise when keeping-on sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Ffos Las (15.8f, soft) 33 days ago. Up in trip. Considered.

4th (9) (6.5/1 +7%) Moonshine Spirit
6.5/1(+7%)

7th (12) (150/1 -50%) Passing Kate
150/1(-50%)
(12) Passing Kate 150/1, Passing Glance mare who has offered little in bumpers at Warwick and Chepstow this winter. Lots more required now going hurdling.

50/1(-178%)
(13) Tiptoe Tara 50/1, 18/1 and tongue strap on, keeping-on third of 11 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) on NH debut 14 days ago. Up in trip with more required.

20/1(-100%)
(3) Chestnut Pete 20/1, Fair hurdler who looked rusty after 9 months off when seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle (28/1) at Bangor (16.7f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Can take a step forward now.

13:22 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(9) Kimngrace 12/1, Useful filly. Below form sixth of 13 in handicap at Doncaster (5f, heavy, 9/1), never nearer. Off 126 days but she's not dismissed.
2
2nd (6) (3.33/1 +17%) Tone The Barone
3.33/1(+17%)
(6) Tone The Barone 3.33/1, Smart gelding. C&D winner. Improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap (7/2) at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 14 days ago, well positioned. Solid claims.

8/1(-60%)
(10) Miss Nay Never 8/1, Useful mare. Four wins from 11 runs last year. 5/4, career best when landing 6-runner handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 44 days ago with plenty in hand. Not taken lightly.
4
4th (1) (4/1 +0%) Alligator Alley
4/1(+0%)
(1) Alligator Alley 4/1, Smart gelding. Completed a hat-trick at Southwell in January and didn't enjoy the rub of the green when 2¼ lengths fourth of 7 to Tone The Barone in handicap at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 7/2) 14 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.
5th
5th (7) (25/1 -14%) Watchya
25/1(-14%)
(7) Watchya 25/1, Useful gelding. Course winner. Three wins from 7 runs last year. Below form tenth of 18 in handicap at Sakhir (6f, good) 22 days ago. Uphill task here.
6th
6th (3) (3.5/1 +36%) Exalted Angel
3.5/1(+36%)
(3) Exalted Angel 3.5/1, Useful gelding. Course winner. Creditable ¾-length third of 10 to Annaf in listed race (11/1) at this course (6f, AW) 21 days ago, running on. Visor on 1st time. Ought to be in the shake-up.
7th
7th (4) (7.5/1 -7%) Look Out Louis
7.5/1(-7%)
(4) Look Out Louis 7.5/1, Useful gelding. Four wins from 9 runs last year. 14/1, only eleventh of 12 to Mitbaahy in World Trophy at Newbury (5.2f, good). Off 161 days but not dismissed on his polytrack debut.

9th (5) (25/1 -56%) One Night Stand
25/1(-56%)
(5) One Night Stand 25/1, Useful gelding. Hampered when 5 lengths last of 10 to Annaf in listed race (80/1) at this course (6f, AW) 21 days ago. Took this event 12 months ago so can't be ruled out.
10th
10th (8) (33/1 +50%) Epsom Faithfull
33/1(+50%)
(8) Epsom Faithfull 33/1, Useful mare. Course winner. Four wins from 7 runs last year. Last of 7 in handicap at this course (7f, AW, 7/1) 7 days ago, left poorly placed. Down in trip and no forlorn hope.
LTO Selection:
13:30 Lingfield Listed (Class 1) 5f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(6) Zenta 0.44/1, Third sole start on Flat in France and bright start over hurdles when landing 9-runner listed newcomers race at Auteuil (17.9f) in September. Since joined leading NH outfit and highly likely she can make her mark with improvement anticipated.
2
2nd (2) (7/1 +22%) Hypotenus
7/1(+22%)
(2) Hypotenus 7/1, Useful on Flat in France, winner 3 times in 2022 at up to 11f. Connections went to €215,000 to acquire him in October and another to monitor very closely in the betting now hurdling. Hood/tongue tie fitted.
3
3rd (3) (10/1 +55%) Jourdefete
10/1(+55%)
(3) Jourdefete 10/1, Placed in bumper at Vichy for Emmanuel Clayeux but cut little ice in couple of graded hurdle runs to date for Willie Mullins.
4
4th (5) (16/1 +11%) Zefania
16/1(+11%)
(5) Zefania 16/1, Useful filly on Flat (stays 12.5f), in rear in Group 1 Prix De L'Opera at Longchamp last time. Changed hands for €42,000 in December and the betting should guide with yard also saddling Hypotenus.
5th
5th (1) (5/1 +0%) Harley Street
5/1(+0%)
(1) Harley Street 5/1, Galileo colt who stepped up markedly on his debut effort when landing a Curragh maiden (12f) with a good bit to spare in October (final start for Aidan O'Brien). Rates a very interesting juvenile hurdle prospect now and interesting what the market makes of him. Tongue tied.
(1) Endless Escape 0.73/1, Has completed a rare novice hurdle hat-trick, striking at Ffos Las 33 days ago, refusing to lie down in the dash for home as she successfully conceded 5 lb to an odds-on favourite who'd tried graded company the time before. Step up in trip here sure to suit and another win beckons.
2
2nd (5) (1.75/1 +42%) Leading Force
1.75/1(+42%)
(5) Leading Force 1.75/1, Irish point winner who has made a fairly good start over hurdles, not always fluent and left behind by easy winner soon after last here on Boxing Day. This step up in trip will suit.
3
3rd (4) (11/1 +21%) City Roller
11/1(+21%)
(4) City Roller 11/1, Improved with each start in bumpers. Pulled up on hurdles debut and while he showed a bit more at Huntingdon 6 weeks ago he looked hard work. Step up in trip looks a good move.
4
4th (6) (40/1 +39%) Bowland Belle
40/1(+39%)
(6) Bowland Belle 40/1, Mid-field sole outing in bumpers and well held completed start in mares' novice hurdles.

|PU|
|PU| (3) (20/1 -25%) Bryden
20/1(-25%)

|PU|
|PU| (2) (66/1 +18%) Barley Breeze
66/1(+18%)
(2) Barley Breeze 66/1, Modest in bumpers and went with no promise sent hurdling at Doncaster 8 weeks ago. Has had a wind operation since.

100/1(+0%)
(7) Ellistrin Star 100/1, No show in bumpers/2 novice hurdles.

2
2nd (2) (6.5/1 +19%) Perseus Way
6.5/1(+19%)
(2) Perseus Way 6.5/1, Useful 10f winner on Flat who has quickly reached that level in this sphere, landing the odds at Leicester and Huntingdon either side of excellent third in Chepstow Finale Hurdle. May do better still. Much respected.
3
3rd (4) (7/1 -8%) Rare Middleton
7/1(-8%)
(4) Rare Middleton 7/1, Fairly useful winner on Flat in Ireland for Andrew Oliver. Changed hands for 215,000 gns before making highly impressive hurdling bow in 2m Taunton novice last month, scoring with plenty in hand. Most interesting prospect.
4
4th (8) (10/1 +17%) Pawapuri
10/1(+17%)
(8) Pawapuri 10/1, Useful 11f Flat winner for William Haggas. Since changed hands for 105,000 gns and this daughter of Golden Horn brings considerable potential to hurdling. Considered.
5th
5th (6) (25/1 +24%) Spartan Army
25/1(+24%)
(6) Spartan Army 25/1, Progressive 10f winner on Flat for Joseph O'Brien. Changed hands for 170,000 gns and went in at the first time of asking in this sphere at Wetherby in November. Good second in Wincanton novice last time so no forlorn hope for yard with excellent record in this contest.
6th
6th (1) (1.5/1 +8%) Scriptwriter
1.5/1(+8%)
(1) Scriptwriter 1.5/1, Useful on the Flat and has taken really well to hurdles, scoring at Sedgefield and Cheltenham (Grade 2) before excellent second back at Cheltenham in Finesse Hurdle last time. The form pick.
7th
7th (7) (50/1 +24%) The Churchill Lad
50/1(+24%)
(7) The Churchill Lad 50/1, Fair Flat winner who has taken well to hurdling, winning juveniles at Cartmel and Catterick. Good second in Musselburgh listed event last time, despite pulling hard. May do better still.
|F|
|F| (5) (10/1 -11%) Sarsons Risk
10/1(-11%)
(5) Sarsons Risk 10/1, Fairly useful 1m4f Flat winner for Ian Williams who had breathing op before making an impressive hurdling bow for his new yard in juvenile at Doncaster 16 days ago. Tongue tied. In the mix with more to come.
LTO Selection:
13:50 Kempton Conditions Hurdle (Class 1) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(7) Zambezi Fix 11/1, Seventeen runs since his last win in 2020 but he's on a reasonable mark and his latest second at Ffos Las was a solid showing. One to consider.
2
2nd (8) (5.5/1 +45%) No No Tonic
5.5/1(+45%)
(8) No No Tonic 5.5/1, Likeable mare who enhanced an excellent record at Wincanton when scoring easily over 2m there on Boxing Day. Good second at this course last time and likely to put up another bold showing.
3
3rd (12) (9/1 +25%) Petticoat Lucy
9/1(+25%)
(12) Petticoat Lucy 9/1, Landed a mares' novice hurdle at Wincanton (2m) last winter. Not the most consistent but latest fourth at Fontwell was a reasonable showing.
4
4th (3) (3.33/1 -21%) Go Dante
3.33/1(-21%)
(3) Go Dante 3.33/1, Looked good prospect with impressive victories in Wincanton bumper and Bangor novice hurdle last year. Disappointing return at Uttoxeter but could bounce back now fully tuned up.
5th
5th (4) (18/1 -80%) Totterdown
18/1(-80%)
(4) Totterdown 18/1, Back with former yard and won 6-runner handicap hurdle at Leicester (15.5f, soft, 15/2) 90 days ago, responding well. Remains with handicapping scope and is worth chancing to follow up.
6th
6th (10) (40/1 -21%) Gris Majeur
40/1(-21%)
(10) Gris Majeur 40/1, Ludlow novice hurdle winner in May but cut little ice in handicaps since and may need some help from the assessor.
7th
7th (9) (6/1 -50%) Cousu Main
6/1(-50%)
(9) Cousu Main 6/1, Career best when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle (11/4) at Uttoxeter (15.8f, soft) 28 days ago, easily. Both wins have now come at that track, but he's a player if able to back it up.
8th
8th (6) (33/1 -106%) River Bray
33/1(-106%)
(6) River Bray 33/1, Isn't the easiest to catch right but he stepped up markedly on his reappearance effort to land 10-runner Taunton handicap (16.5f) 18 days ago, making the running and always holding on. Whether he'll be in same form here is open to question, however.
9th
9th (1) (22/1 +0%) The Pink'n
22/1(+0%)
(1) The Pink'n 22/1, Pretty useful form in this sphere a couple of seasons back but not firing of late.
10th
10th (5) (28/1 -133%) Al Zaraqaan
28/1(-133%)
(5) Al Zaraqaan 28/1, Smart at best on Flat and positive start over hurdles, making it 4 on the spin at Musselburgh in December. Disappointing at Sedgefield last time and needs the race run to suit.
|PU|
|PU| (11) (3.33/1 +26%) Inca De Lafayette
3.33/1(+26%)
(11) Inca De Lafayette 3.33/1, French bumper scorer who made a winning British/hurdles debut at Taunton last February. Has only run twice since but should strip fitter for his return at this course 22 days ago.
|PU|
|PU| (2) (12/1 +14%) Rathmacknee
12/1(+14%)
(2) Rathmacknee 12/1, Quickening up to lead late on at Doncaster (19.5f) in December. Easy to excuse next run but was pulled up at Uttoxeter on latest and has a bit to prove.
LTO Selection:
13:57 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(5) Lord North 0.73/1, Second in this last year before winning (dead-heated) the Group 1 Dubai Turf for a second time. Not beaten far (not ideally placed) in the Eclipse at Sandown when last seen 7 months ago. The one to beat.
2
2nd (8) (4.5/1 +31%) Tyrrhenian Sea
4.5/1(+31%)
(8) Tyrrhenian Sea 4.5/1, Rapidly made up into a smart performer on AW last winter. Didn't live up to expectations on turf last 2 starts but good chance he can revive on AW first time back and ran well on only other try over this trip. Interesting alternative to the favourite.
3
3rd (2) (11/1 +39%) Foxes Tales
11/1(+39%)
(2) Foxes Tales 11/1, Smart performer, looked awkward when last seen in August, well-beaten ninth of 10 to Anmaat in Rose of Lancaster Stakes (14/1) at Haydock (10.4f, good). Gelded since. Remains unexposed on AW.
4
4th (3) (8.5/1 +6%) Harrovian
8.5/1(+6%)
(3) Harrovian 8.5/1, Useful gelding. Respectable 1¼ lengths third of 6 to Forest of Dean in minor event at Newcastle (10.2f, 7/4) 44 days ago. Work to do.
5th
5th (6) (33/1 -65%) Lucander
33/1(-65%)
(6) Lucander 33/1, Smart gelding. Didn't need to be at best when winning 8-runner minor event at Sakhir (10.9f, good to firm) 8 days ago, driven clear. More needed at this level.
6th
6th (1) (8.5/1 -55%) Forest Of Dean
8.5/1(-55%)
(1) Forest Of Dean 8.5/1, Smart gelding. Won this in 2021. Won 6-runner minor event at Newcastle (10.2f, 9/2) 44 days ago, cosily. Work to do with classy stablemate Lord North but should give his running.
7th
7th (4) (22/1 +0%) King Of The South
22/1(+0%)
(4) King Of The South 22/1, Useful gelding. Seven wins from 21 Flat runs. Latest win at Newcastle in November. 12/1, fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 28 days ago, not ideally placed. This is much tougher.
8th
8th (7) (150/1 +0%) Pistoletto
150/1(+0%)
(7) Pistoletto 150/1, Fairly useful gelding. Course winner. Last of 7 in novice hurdle at Fakenham (16f, good to soft, 13/2) on NH debut 23 days ago. Impossible to fancy on these terms.

LTO Selection:
14:10 Fairyhouse Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(1) Baron De Midleton 4/1, Back to form in refitted blinkers, gaining a belated first success over fences over 20f here in November. Solid runners-up efforts both starts since and not discounted arriving here on back of a wind op.
2
2nd (2) (1.38/1 +15%) Heroique De Maulde
1.38/1(+15%)
(2) Heroique De Maulde 1.38/1, Dual chase winner in France last autumn who cmeneted positive start for new yard when off the mark following a wind op at Doncaster (20.5f) 16 days ago, idling run-in and always holding on. Big player from 2 lb higher mark again partnered by Brian Hughes. Cheekpieces enlisted.
3
3rd (3) (3.5/1 +0%) Chanceux
3.5/1(+0%)
(3) Chanceux 3.5/1, Dual novice hurdle winner (at around 2m) last winter. Improved at first attempt over fences when runner-up at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) in December but failed to jump with same fluency when falling back at that venue last month. Drops back in trip now and it remains early days with him.
4
4th (4) (3.33/1 +52%) Oscars Leader
3.33/1(+52%)
(4) Oscars Leader 3.33/1, Doubled chase tally from 6 lb higher on this card 12 months ago. Not scaled same heights since but his latest midfield Hereford effort over this trip was a step back in the right direction. Cheekpieces replace the visor now.
LTO Selection:
14:18 Newcastle Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Solo 2.75/1, Useful chaser. Off the mark over fences when making all in 5-runner handicap at Sandown on reappearance and ran to a similar level when second next 2 starts. Should be thereabouts once again. First run since having a breathing operation.
2
2nd (2) (2.75/1 -10%) Datsalrightgino
2.75/1(-10%)
(2) Datsalrightgino 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler who opened his chase account at the second attempt in a 2m Chepstow novice handicap. Quickly back on track when second in a strong handicap at Cheltenham, clear of rest. Needs considering.
3
3rd (1) (1.88/1 +6%) Boothill
1.88/1(+6%)
(1) Boothill 1.88/1, Useful hurdles winner who has quickly developed into an even better chaser, making it 3-4 in this sphere when landing the Wayward Lad Novices' Chase at Kempton (2m) during the Christmas period. Creditable second under a penalty at Doncaster since and the one to beat back up in trip.
4
4th (5) (6/1 +14%) Tweed Skirt
6/1(+14%)
(5) Tweed Skirt 6/1, Fair bumper/hurdles winner who has taken off since switched to chasing, scoring in handicaps at Kempton and Wincanton. Good third in listed mares chase at Huntingdon since but vulnerable in this field.
5th
5th (3) (12/1 +14%) Jay Jay Reilly
12/1(+14%)
(3) Jay Jay Reilly 12/1, Dual hurdles winner last season and going the right way over fences now, just prevailing at Kempton 15 days ago. May do better still but needs to in this company.
LTO Selection:
14:25 Kempton Maiden Chase (Class 1) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(8) Eaton Collina 3/1, Hereford hurdles winner (at 19.7f) last season. Solid enough start over fences this winter, going well when unseating 4 out at Wetherby (24.2f) on penultimate start prior to a respectable fifth at first-named venue (25.2f) 26 days ago. No reason why he won't be thereabouts again back down in trip.
2
2nd (4) (3.5/1 +36%) Triple Trade
3.5/1(+36%)
(4) Triple Trade 3.5/1, Winner of a decent handicap hurdle at Lingfield around this time last year and, on the back of 3 non-completions over fences, he halted the slide when runner-up in this sphere at Wincanton (15.7f) 23 days ago. Return to further a plus if he can build on that here.
3
3rd (3) (3.33/1 +33%) Valleres
3.33/1(+33%)
(3) Valleres 3.33/1, Irish point winner who won twice from 5 starts over hurdles during 2020/21. Promise initially over fences last winter prior to ending last campaign below form but fact he has gone well fresh previously is worth noting starting out for new yard off career-low mark.
4
4th (7) (12/1 +25%) Pottlerath
12/1(+25%)
(7) Pottlerath 12/1, Successful 3 times from a low base over hurdles during 2022, latterly at Hereford (21.7f) in October. Improved form when runner-up at up to 25.5f next 3 starts and whilst he turned in a rare poor effort latest, he could go well now tackling larger obstacles.
5th
5th (6) (9/1 +10%) Small Bad Bob
9/1(+10%)
(6) Small Bad Bob 9/1, Maiden pointer who tasted success 3 times over hurdles during 2021/22 campaign. Only one real effort of note in that sphere so far this term and others appeal that little bit more ahead of this switch to chasing.
6th
6th (2) (6.5/1 -30%) Hometown Hero
6.5/1(-30%)
(2) Hometown Hero 6.5/1, Irish point/novice hurdle winner who produced best effort to date when runner-up in a Uttoxeter handicap chase 4 weeks ago, edged out on line but clear of remainder. 5 lb higher mark to contend with now but he's a player with a repeat.
|PU|
|PU| (5) (8/1 -33%) Henschke
8/1(-33%)
(5) Henschke 8/1, Maiden hurdler who, on the back of a second wind op has made a bright start over fences, runner-up at Hereford (20.8f) prior to going one place better at Ffos Las (20.9f) 25 days ago. May have more to offer if keeping the errors at bay.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(8) Outbreak 7/1, Lightly-raced winner. Good fifth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 13/2) 12 days ago. Has work to do.
2
2nd (6) (4/1 +0%) Notre Belle Bete
4/1(+0%)
(6) Notre Belle Bete 4/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 11 runs last year. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Kempton (8f, 5/1), clear of rest. Off 99 days. Should go well.
3
3rd (4) (3.33/1 +17%) Diderot
3.33/1(+17%)
(4) Diderot 3.33/1, Shaped well back after 8 months off when good second of 11 in handicap (5/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 33 days ago, adding to a good record when fresh. Respected.
4
4th (3) (33/1 -50%) Imperial Sands
33/1(-50%)
(3) Imperial Sands 33/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Kempton in January. Last of 9 in handicap (8/1) at Kempton (8f) 24 days ago.

18/1(+10%)
(5) Hafeet Alain 18/1, C&D winner. Last of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 8/1) 33 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time.
6th

20/1(-122%)
(2) Intuitive 20/1, C&D winner. Six wins from 23 Flat runs. 7/2, respectable second of 6 in minor event at Newcastle (8f) 43 days ago.
7th
7th (1) (8/1 +6%) Lord Of The Lodge
8/1(+6%)
(1) Lord Of The Lodge 8/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. 10/1, creditable 1¾ lengths third of 6 to Manaafith in listed race at this C&D (AW) 21 days ago.
8th
8th (7) (2/1 +0%) Security Code
2/1(+0%)
(7) Security Code 2/1, Territories colt. Closely related to smart 1m-10.3f winner Chief Ironside. 6/1, won 10-runner novice at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut, overcoming pace bias. Shaped very well when just failing under a penalty at Yarmouth in April. Off 10 months. Makes handicap debut. Has to be taken seriously.
LTO Selection:
14:40 Lingfield Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(16) L'yser 3/1, C&D winner. Off 8 months, 7/2, respectable sixth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (20f, soft) 59 days ago. Looks on a fair mark and one for the shortlist.
2
2nd (6) (4/1 +38%) Cadatharla
4/1(+38%)
(6) Cadatharla 4/1, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap hurdle (10/11) at Naas (18.8f, heavy) 48 days ago, well on top finish. Will go on progressing and leading contender here.
3
3rd (9) (16/1 +11%) Mr Saxobeat
16/1(+11%)
(9) Mr Saxobeat 16/1, Bit below form seventh of 16 in handicap hurdle at Galway (16f, good to soft, 13/2) when last seen, barely adequate test. Off 7 months. Back up in trip. Could get involved.
4
4th (10) (12/1 +33%) Dutch Schultz
12/1(+33%)
(10) Dutch Schultz 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles. Useful winner at 14f on flat. Respectable fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at Leopardstown (16f, soft) 61 days ago, finding less than looked likely. Up in trip.
5th
5th (11) (14/1 +30%) Jiving Jerry
14/1(+30%)
(11) Jiving Jerry 14/1, Creditable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Navan (20f, soft, 7/1) 35 days ago, running on.
6th
6th (3) (4/1 +20%) Spirit Of Legend
4/1(+20%)
(3) Spirit Of Legend 4/1, Promising individual. Winner in hurdle at Navan in November. 9/4, going well when brought down 3 out in minor event hurdle at Navan (15.8f, soft) 35 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt.
7th
7th (8) (14/1 +30%) Gold Speed
14/1(+30%)
(8) Gold Speed 14/1, 6/1, creditable fifth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Naas (15.7f, soft) 27 days ago. Up in trip.
8th
8th (14) (14/1 +0%) Takarengo
14/1(+0%)
(14) Takarengo 14/1, 19 lengths fifth of 6 to Fil Dor in Red Mills Trial Hurdle at Gowran (16f, heavy, 40/1) 7 days ago. Back up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Merits consideration.
9th
9th (13) (18/1 +45%) Krabat
18/1(+45%)
(13) Krabat 18/1, 9/1, fell heavily early in handicap chase at Navan (24f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Switches from chase to hurdles. Looks vulnerable.
|F|
|F| (2) (18/1 +28%) Weseekhimhere
18/1(+28%)
(2) Weseekhimhere 18/1, Bumper/hurdles winner. Off 16 months, 33/1, good fifth of 10 in minor event hurdle at Punchestown (19.6f, heavy) 56 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Could do better.
10th
10th (15) (66/1 -100%) Too Bright
66/1(-100%)
(15) Too Bright 66/1, Fairly useful hurdler, below form on last hurdle run. 9/1, creditable third of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (16f) 10 days ago.
11th
11th (4) (33/1 +0%) Rodaniche
33/1(+0%)
(4) Rodaniche 33/1, Seventh of 9 in handicap hurdle (13/2) at Cork (20f, heavy) 49 days ago. More needed.
12th
12th (5) (8.5/1 +6%) Dovlator
8.5/1(+6%)
(5) Dovlator 8.5/1, Promising sort. Good second of 10 in minor event hurdle at this course (20.2f, soft, 18/1) 84 days ago, finishing strongly. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Better to come, not least when upped to 3m.
13th
13th (18) (100/1 -203%) Shanroe Al C
100/1(-203%)
(18) Shanroe Al C 100/1, Won at Ayr in November 2021. Off 14 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Has won his last 4 starts in this sphere but this looks tough first time back.
(1) Blue Fin 2/1, Placed twice in points and best effort yet under Rules when third in 15-runner Catterick novice (19.3f, soft) last month, pulling clear with a couple of previous winners. Drop back on trip shouldn't be an issue and he just about sets the standard on that form.
2
2nd (6) (12/1 -200%) Si Elegant
12/1(-200%)
(6) Si Elegant 12/1, Bought for €155,000 after finishing second in a 3-y-o hurdle on sole start in France back in September 2021. Ran out at around the half-way point on British debut at Hereford (19.7f, good to soft), though, and looks risky on the back of that inauspicious display.
3
3rd (7) (4/1 -33%) Hashtag Boum
4/1(-33%)
(7) Hashtag Boum 4/1, Irish point winner who left her low-key Rules debut effort over 19.3f at Catterick well behind when runner-up dropped to 2m in a 11-runner Wetherby novice 3 weeks ago. Likely to make a bold bid to go one better here.
4
4th (2) (4/1 +38%) Caithness
4/1(+38%)
(2) Caithness 4/1, Decent pedigree and shaped with plenty of encouragement when third behind a couple of useful types on debut in a C&D novice, leaving the impression that he'd be all the better for the experience. Improvement should be forthcoming.
5th
5th (4) (5/1 +23%) Long Symphony
5/1(+23%)
(4) Long Symphony 5/1, Signs of ability in a couple of bumpers in 2021 and improved in a first-time tongue strap following almost 2 years off when winning one at Wetherby (2m, good to soft). That probably wasn't a particularly strong race, though, and more will be needed now switched to hurdles.
6th
6th (8) (7/1 -17%) Lenebane
7/1(-17%)
(8) Lenebane 7/1, Displayed a fair level of ability in Irish maiden hurdles for Ross O'Sullivan and shaped as though in need of the run on stable debut in December. Better expected now tongue tied on back of a breathing op.
7th
7th (5) (14/1 +58%) Shuil Ceoil
14/1(+58%)
(5) Shuil Ceoil 14/1, Minor promise on Rules debut in a Wincanton bumper on Boxing Day but was well held when falling 2 out at the same course (hurdles debut) earlier this month.
|U|
|U| (3) (150/1 +0%) Captain Nelson
150/1(+0%)
(3) Captain Nelson 150/1, Showed nothing in an Ayr bumper on debut last spring and fared no better on return/hurdles bow at the same course in December.
LTO Selection:
14:53 Newcastle Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(8) Our Power 5.5/1, Shaped well in a couple of top handicaps last season, including this race, and bagged a good pot on his return at Ascot in October off 5 lb lower. Remains unexposed over this sort of trip and a big run looks on the cards.
2
2nd (9) (10/1 +17%) Flegmatik
10/1(+17%)
(9) Flegmatik 10/1, Back-to-back winner here last season, including at this meeting. Not so good twice after a promising return at Ascot this time around but his mark has dipped and he has cheekpieces back on now.
3
3rd (1) (10/1 -11%) Frodon
10/1(-11%)
(1) Frodon 10/1, Grand servant who defied top weight in a handicap (from 3 lb lower) for the fifth time in the Badger Beer at Wincanton on return. Gone with his customary enthusiasm before weakening in top events since (placed in the King George over C&D having won it in 2020). Some feat if he were to take this.
4
4th (6) (20/1 +9%) Bobhopeornohope
20/1(+9%)
(6) Bobhopeornohope 20/1, Took another step forward as he resumed winning ways under top-weight in a 3m Ludlow handicap that rather fell apart 10 weeks ago, digging deep to hold on. Needs more up 3 lb in this deeper contest.
5th
5th (13) (6.5/1 +46%) Killer Kane
6.5/1(+46%)
(13) Killer Kane 6.5/1, Impressed as he landed a gamble in C&D handicap a fortnight ago, always prominent and jumping well. More needed under a penalty in this company but he's proving largely reliable and couldn't be dismissed.
6th
6th (7) (25/1 -14%) Enrilo
25/1(-14%)
(7) Enrilo 25/1, Smart winner over fences in 2020/21 but he has failed to complete on 5 of his last 6 starts, quickly done with from halfway in the C&D handicap won by Annsam 6 weeks ago. Fourth in this in first-time cheekpieces (back on) last year on the one time he did get round, but plenty to prove now.
7th
7th (5) (7.5/1 +12%) Annsam
7.5/1(+12%)
(5) Annsam 7.5/1, Jumped his rivals into the ground from the front in C&D handicap in the mud 6 weeks ago. 7 lb rise leaves him on a career-high mark in this tougher contest but he has posted back-to-back wins in the past.
8th
8th (11) (20/1 +29%) Jacamar
20/1(+29%)
(11) Jacamar 20/1, Back to winning ways with sights lowered as he landed a gamble in 2½m Leicester handicap 3 weeks ago. Back up 5 lb/in class now and not an obvious type to follow up over this longer trip.
9th
9th (12) (3.5/1 +30%) Cap Du Nord
3.5/1(+30%)
(12) Cap Du Nord 3.5/1, Landed a gamble under this rider as stable enjoyed a superb 1-2 in this last season and he resumed winning ways in valuable 3m Ascot contest last week, powering clear from the last. No surprise to see him go well again under a penalty.
|F|
|F| (4) (25/1 -79%) Killer Clown
25/1(-79%)
(4) Killer Clown 25/1, Dual handicap winner over 2½m last term, including here in March. Tough race when shaping well on return at Market Rasen and given a break since flopping at Newbury a month later. Dropped 3 lb and capable of giving these a scare if he stays.
|PU|
|PU| (2) (9/1 -29%) Saint Calvados
9/1(-29%)
(2) Saint Calvados 9/1, 2020 Ryanair runner-up who opened account for Paul Nicholls in Grade 2 at Sandown (22.8f) in April under Harry Cobden. Hasn't fired in 2 runs at that level this season ridden by owner, but given a chance by the handicapper. Capable of a bold show if staying.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (14/1 -56%) Clondaw Castle
14/1(-56%)
(3) Clondaw Castle 14/1, Progressed well 2 seasons back, landing this contest from his current mark. Lightly raced since, but shaped as if retaining most of his ability after 14 months off here in January (given a very patient ride) and he's a player if he's come on from that.
|PU|
|PU| (10) (22/1 +56%) Black Gerry
22/1(+56%)
(10) Black Gerry 22/1, Successful in handicaps 6 months apart at Fontwell and Exeter at up to 19f this term, but jumped poorly and folded tamely when well backed at former track when last seen in December. Returns in tough race with stamina to prove.
LTO Selection:
15:00 Kempton Handicap Chase (Class 1) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(15) Thanksforthehelp 4.5/1, Encouraging third in a big field at Punchestown on his handicap debut last April. Shaped a bit better than result when fourth on 21f Wetherby return on Boxing Day. Has subsequently undergone wind surgery. Also has first-time cheekpieces added to his tongue strap. Interesting runner.
2
2nd (12) (12/1 +57%) My Bobby Dazzler
12/1(+57%)
(12) My Bobby Dazzler 12/1, Won at Aintree last term but hasn't made much impact on either outing this term and he'll need to up his game to figure here.

3rd (9) (14/1 +0%) Bells Of Peterboro
14/1(+0%)
(9) Bells Of Peterboro 14/1, Consistent sort who made the frame again when returned to hurdles over C&D on Welsh National day. Creditable seventh of 14 in a competitive Sandown handicap since but it underlines he needs a bit more from this mark.
4
4th (2) (20/1 -100%) Bear Ghylls
20/1(-100%)
(2) Bear Ghylls 20/1, Had a fine season as a novice hurdler in 2020/21, winning his first 3 starts. Shaped better than the bare result after 20 months off when third on chase debut at Carlisle but he hasn't built on it twice since. Cheekpieces are reached for back hurdling. Has something to prove at present.
5th
5th (10) (10/1 +0%) Top Of The Bill
10/1(+0%)
(10) Top Of The Bill 10/1, Improved to open his account in C&D handicap in December and back to winning ways with cheekpieces added (retained) at Exeter 24 days ago. One of 2 solid contenders for a stable which won this race 12 months ago.
6th
6th (7) (7.5/1 +38%) Dubrovnik Harry
7.5/1(+38%)
(7) Dubrovnik Harry 7.5/1, Promising over hurdles last term, including a third in the competitive EBF Final at Sandown in March. Also didn't shape too badly on his chase debut/reappearance in November but he pulled up in Lanzarote Hurdle at Kempton on sole run since. Up in trip.
7th
7th (8) (12/1 -50%) Surrey Quest
12/1(-50%)
(8) Surrey Quest 12/1, Looked a good prospect over hurdles last season. Hasn't progressed as might have been hoped over fences this time round but this 6-y-o still has time on his side and a return to hurdles and addition of cheekpieces could give him a lift.
8th
8th (5) (50/1 -213%) Southfield Harvest
50/1(-213%)
(5) Southfield Harvest 50/1, Has offered only minor encouragement over fences since returning from an absence so hopes are pinned on a return to hurdling and first-time blinkers (replacing cheekpieces) sparking a revival.
9th
9th (11) (25/1 -56%) Take Your Time
25/1(-56%)
(11) Take Your Time 25/1, Looked very much on the up when winning over C&D in December 2021. Progress has stalled since but he might have needed his C&D reappearance over Christmas and there's still time for him to get back on the up.
|PU|
|PU| (13) (3.6/1 +35%) The Kniphand
3.6/1(+35%)
(13) The Kniphand 3.6/1, Improved for step up to 3m when landing back-to-back Doncaster handicaps in recent months. Raised another 7 lb but it's unlikely he's reached his limit yet.
|PU|
|PU| (14) (6/1 +8%) Operation Manna
6/1(+8%)
(14) Operation Manna 6/1, Bumper/maiden hurdle winner last term who took another step forward when scoring on his 19.5f course reappearance in November. Creditable third at Newcastle since and remains a handicapper with potential, particularly now stepping up in trip.
|PU|
|PU| (4) (14/1 -17%) Ballybegg
14/1(-17%)
(4) Ballybegg 14/1, Last 2 wins gained over 2½m at Uttoxeter, bouncing back to form with a bang to comfortably see off 10 rivals a fortnight ago. Some of his 7 lb rise is offset by Niall Houlihan's claim but consistency isn't his strong suit and he's also unproven at this trip.
|PU|
|PU| (6) (18/1 -64%) Kings Keeper
18/1(-64%)
(6) Kings Keeper 18/1, Finally off the mark in maiden hurdle at Wexford in June. Well held on chase debut at Limerick next time (final start for Henry de Bromhead) but has made a good start for new yard back hurdling, placed twice at Uttoxeter before winning at Ffos Las (2½m). Steps up in trip now.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (40/1 -186%) Galileo Silver
40/1(-186%)
(3) Galileo Silver 40/1, Dual chase winner last winter but also scored over hurdles at Ffos Las (3m) in June. Ran well again when second at Market Rasen the following month but off since and he returns in a competitive race.

150/1(-355%)
(1) Jon Snow 150/1, Useful hurdler who landed a maiden chase at Killarney in August. Left Willie Mullins after a disappointing run at Galway (fences again) in October and watching brief is advised back hurdling for his new yard.

(13) Tuckmill 4.5/1, 11/1, respectable sixth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (16.1f, good). Off 8 months. Back up in trip. First run for yard after leaving F. Flood. Merits consideration.
|PU|

(25) Scarbrook 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Punchestown (20.3f, heavy) 26 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Worth a second look.

|PU| (24) (100/1 -52%) Nailed Down
100/1(-52%)
(24) Nailed Down 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 11/1, brought down in novice hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good) 180 days ago. Makes handicap hurdle debut.
(4) Kitty's Light 1.75/1, Very useful stayer who posted fine runner-up effort in Scottish National at Ayr last spring. Yet to hit top form this term kept to around 3m but has slipped to a very attractive mark and rates a big player now back over a marathon trip for last year's winning yard.
2
2nd (2) (10/1 +9%) The Galloping Bear
10/1(+9%)
(2) The Galloping Bear 10/1, Very useful staying chaser who was running with credit in first-time cheekpieces when falling 4 out in Welsh National at Chepstow in December. Not taken lightly with headgear retained.
3
3rd (15) (5.5/1 +54%) No Cruise Yet
5.5/1(+54%)
(15) No Cruise Yet 5.5/1, Really likeable staying chaser who dug deep to take 3m4f Haydock handicap in November. Good second in North Wales National at Bangor last time so he merits serious consideration despite being 2 lb out of the handicap.
4
4th (1) (20/1 -25%) Eva's Oskar
20/1(-25%)
(1) Eva's Oskar 20/1, Likeable chaser who has improved since the visor went on, scoring at Cheltenham and solid sixth in 3m Sandown handicap last time. Should continue to give a good account.
5th
5th (13) (14/1 +22%) Rath An Iuir
14/1(+22%)
(13) Rath An Iuir 14/1, Useful chaser at his best who capitalised on a much-reduced mark to land 3m2f Kelso handicap in December. More is required here though back up 4 lb in a deeper contest.
6th
6th (5) (33/1 +0%) Mighty Thunder
33/1(+0%)
(5) Mighty Thunder 33/1, Won the 2021 Scottish Grand National but he doesn't look the force of old nowadays, only seventh in Edinburgh National at Musselburgh three weeks ago. Has plenty to prove at present.
7th
7th (14) (8.5/1 +39%) Houston Texas
8.5/1(+39%)
(14) Houston Texas 8.5/1, Completed a hat-trick over fences at Carlisle in October and not disgraced off a higher mark since, fourth of 7 over 23f here last time. Respected.
|PU|
|PU| (12) (7.5/1 +25%) In Rem
7.5/1(+25%)
(12) In Rem 7.5/1, Big improver in handicap hurdles last season and further progress switched to fences, scoring at Exeter on New Year's Day. Hindered by blunder 4 out when good Chepstow third last time and he can make his presence felt off an unchanged mark.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (14/1 -65%) Bavington Bob
14/1(-65%)
(3) Bavington Bob 14/1, Four-time winner last season (including twice here) and he took a step back in the right direction when second of 4 in 23f Kelso handicap last month. Blinkers go on now and he can't be dismissed.
|PU|
|PU| (8) (14/1 -17%) Sam's Adventure
14/1(-17%)
(8) Sam's Adventure 14/1, Smart chaser at his peak who took this contest in 2021. Capitalised on a much-reduced mark when gaining his first win since in 25f Cartmel handicap last month. Back up 5 lb now but he's still no forlorn hope.
|PU|
|PU| (11) (18/1 +0%) Amateur
18/1(+0%)
(11) Amateur 18/1, Landed West Wales National for second successive year at Ffos Las (28f) last spring. Not disgraced after 7-month absence when sixth in 3m1f Hereford handicap last month but this demands another big step forward.
|PU|
|PU| (6) (25/1 -39%) Shanty Alley
25/1(-39%)
(6) Shanty Alley 25/1, Useful stayer who came in a close second at Newbury (26t) in December. On back foot after bad error 1st when seventh at Doncaster last time and no surprise to see him bounce back here.
|PU|
|PU| (9) (50/1 +0%) One More Fleurie
50/1(+0%)
(9) One More Fleurie 50/1, Four-time winner (at up to 3m) as a novice in 2021 but he has largely struggled since, beaten in a match at Catterick 12 days ago. He's very hard to make a case for.
LTO Selection:
15:25 Newcastle Handicap Chase (Class 2) 33f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(4) Rubaud 2.75/1, Useful on the Flat in France and successful at Taunton on first 2 starts of this season before finishing a clear second over C&D on Boxing Day. Was too lit up to give himself a chance in a hot Newbury handicap a fortnight ago but good claims back in novice company with a first-time hood enlisted.
2
2nd (6) (7/1 +30%) Mullenbeg
7/1(+30%)
(6) Mullenbeg 7/1, Useful dual bumper winner who completed a hurdles hat-trick when taking a 2m Ludlow handicap in November. Came up short when bidding for the 4-timer at Cheltenham but she remains with potential and could have a part to play up in class here granted a strong pace to aim at.
3
3rd (5) (3.5/1 +30%) Ukantango
3.5/1(+30%)
(5) Ukantango 3.5/1, Winner of his first 3 starts under Rules, namely a bumper and brace of novice hurdles, before finishing second in a Cheltenham Grade 2 in November. Testing conditions were perhaps against him at Sandown last time and he's one to consider with the ground likely to be more suitable this time.
4
4th (2) (10/1 -43%) Imperial Bede
10/1(-43%)
(2) Imperial Bede 10/1, French bumper winner who duly stepped up on his hurdles debut display when seeing off 13 rivals in good style in a Huntingdon maiden last month. This is more demanding but he looks a useful novice in the making.
5th
5th (1) (2.25/1 -38%) Hansard
2.25/1(-38%)
(1) Hansard 2.25/1, Fairly useful Irish bumper winner for Charles O'Brien and made it 2-2 over hurdles for this yard when landing a 12-runner Plumpton novice last month. Every inch a leading contender with the promise of even better to come.
6th
6th (7) (16/1 +76%) Postmark
16/1(+76%)
(7) Postmark 16/1, Useful winner on the Flat and left low-key hurdles debut a long way behind when cosily landing a 4-runner Newbury maiden last weekend. Likely capable of better still but this represents a significant step up in class and yard saddles a more appealing candidate in Mullenbeg.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (25/1 +0%) Kayf Legend
25/1(+0%)
(3) Kayf Legend 25/1, Bagged a Stratford bumper in October and made it second time lucky over hurdles at Lingfield recently. Further progress likely for last year's winning yard but this assignment calls for significant improvement.
LTO Selection:
15:40 Kempton Maiden Hurdle (Class 1) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(5) Not Available 3.2/1, Resumed winning ways in a soft-ground handicap chase at Wincanton last month. The forecast quicker ground here will not be an issue and, still feasibly treated following a 6 lb rise, he has to enter calculations.
2
2nd (2) (4/1 +33%) Vision Des Flos
4/1(+33%)
(2) Vision Des Flos 4/1, Scored over fences at Warwick in September and has remained in good form since, finding just one too good at Fontwell (21.6f, good to soft) last time. However, he could find things happening too quickly back down in trip here.
3
3rd (1) (4/1 +0%) Friend Or Foe
4/1(+0%)
(1) Friend Or Foe 4/1, Useful handicapper who won twice on his debut season over fences. Has failed to trouble the judge in 3 starts so far this time round but he is at least edging down the weights and is by no means discounted.
4
4th (3) (5.5/1 -83%) Destined To Shine
5.5/1(-83%)
(3) Destined To Shine 5.5/1, Signed off last term by winning this race off a 3 lb lower mark. Chased home Richmond Lake on return at Wetherby, which was a positive enough start to the season, and likely he will go close if the drying ground doesn't count against him (largely campaigned on soft/heavy).
5th
5th (6) (66/1 -32%) Tiger Voice
66/1(-32%)
(6) Tiger Voice 66/1, Winning hurdler/chaser for Henry de Bromhead in Ireland but, having changed hands for £18,000 in October, he hasn't shown much spark in 2 starts for present connections.
|PU|
|PU| (4) (2.25/1 +10%) Galop De Chasse
2.25/1(+10%)
(4) Galop De Chasse 2.25/1, Winning hurdler in France who looked as good as ever when notching third success over fences at Hereford last month. Back up in class/raised 5 lb and could probably do with some rain but he's a player nonetheless.
LTO Selection:
15:45 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(8) Crimson Angel 3.5/1, Harry Angel filly. Showed ability without being given a hard time when fourth in 10-runner Wolverhampton novice (5.1f) on debut back in November, running green but making late headway. Another likely improver with that experience behind her.
2
2nd (5) (2.5/1 +75%) Nogo's Dream
2.5/1(+75%)
(5) Nogo's Dream 2.5/1, 90,000 gns yearling who hinted at ability without getting competitive when tenth in 18-runner Goodwood maiden (6f) on debut back in July. Gelded subsequently and no surprise where he capable of better. One to monitor closely in betting.
3
3rd (9) (2.75/1 -10%) Soaring Eagle
2.75/1(-10%)
(9) Soaring Eagle 2.75/1, Lightly-raced filly. 5/2, creditable second of 6 in handicap at Chelmsford City (5f) 42 days ago, not ideally placed on the back of a sluggish start but keeping on to be narest at the finish. Sound claims with plenty of experience to call upon from handy draw.
4
4th (7) (7.5/1 -200%) Restrict
7.5/1(-200%)
(7) Restrict 7.5/1, Collected colt. Half-brother to minor US winner by Brody's Cause. Tongue strap on, fourth of 12 in maiden (18/1) at Kempton (6f) on debut 39 days ago, missing break but keeping on without being unduly punished. Open to improvement and considered with that under his belt.
5th
5th (1) (3.5/1 +50%) Al Muzn
3.5/1(+50%)
(1) Al Muzn 3.5/1, Twice-raced colt. 4/1, third of 8 in minor event at this course (6f, AW) 45 days ago, ridden after 2f and plugging on. In good hand and handicaps over further likely to see him to better effect in due course.
6th
6th (6) (33/1 -450%) Quinault
33/1(-450%)
(6) Quinault 33/1, Proved too free when last of 7 on debut in a Doncaster novice (7f) last summer. Switched yards/gelded, very much caught the eye when third on return at Chelmsford (5f) 2 weeks ago, left with too much to do. Open to improvement, particularly back over further.
7th
7th (3) (125/1 -213%) Doves Of Peace
125/1(-213%)
(3) Doves Of Peace 125/1, Twice-raced gelding. 14/1, last of 8 in minor event at Chelmsford City (5f) 15 days ago, hanging left and making little impression. Hood on 1st time.
8th

(4) Elusive Tiger 150/1, Twice-raced colt. First run since leaving Richard Fahey when last of 12 in maiden at Kempton (6f, 50/1) 10 days ago, never on terms. Low-grade handicaps entitled to be more his bag.

2.25/1(+36%)
(2) Carefully Selected 2.25/1, Smart chaser. Course winner. 1 win from 2 runs this season. 9/2, career best when winning 18-runner Thyestes handicap at Gowran (25f, heavy) 30 days ago, all out. Should give another good account.

(9) Pencilfulloflead 3.33/1, Very smart chaser. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable 5 lengths third of 18 to Carefully Selected in handicap chase (15/2) at Gowran (25f, heavy) 30 days ago, running on. Enters calculations.

(5) Glamorgan Duke 80/1, Fairly useful chaser. 50/1, second of 23 in handicap chase at Leopardstown (21.2f, good to soft) 20 days ago. Up in trip. Difficult ask stepping out of handicaps.
(2) Easy As That 3.5/1, Dual bumper winner who made winning handicap hurdle debut at Chepstow (19.4f) 2 years ago. Jumped sketchily when beaten in match on chase bow at Ffos Las after a long absence but much sharper when winning handicap chase at Haydock (21.6f, soft) 57 days ago by 7½ lengths from Ubetya. More to come.
2
2nd (4) (3/1 +14%) Five Star Getaway
3/1(+14%)
(4) Five Star Getaway 3/1, Not disgraced first 2 starts this term but ran poorly at Kempton over Christmas, a race that he won last year. However, has dropped to a tempting mark so no surprise if he bounces back after a break with headgear applied.
3
3rd (6) (3.5/1 +36%) Dubai Days
3.5/1(+36%)
(6) Dubai Days 3.5/1, Won trio of small-field handicap chases last term and best effort this season when close second at Ayr 24 days ago. This harder but not taken lightly.
4
4th (1) (5.5/1 +21%) Dreams Of Home
5.5/1(+21%)
(1) Dreams Of Home 5.5/1, Ended last season on a winning note at Perth and picked up where he left off by landing a 17f Kelso handicap on return in December. Not so good next 2 starts, however. Back up in trip.
5th
5th (3) (6.5/1 +13%) Ubetya
6.5/1(+13%)
(3) Ubetya 6.5/1, Gained first success over fences when making all at Perth in April on final start for Paul Nicholls. Better for return when excellent second in handicaps at Bangor and Haydock (behind Easy As That) but needs to shrug off a poor run at Wetherby.
6th
6th (7) (10/1 +17%) The King Of May
10/1(+17%)
(7) The King Of May 10/1, Fairly useful chaser but fell heavily at this track last month and next effort at Wetherby was poor. Others preferred.
|PU|
|PU| (5) (14/1 +13%) Chinwag
14/1(+13%)
(5) Chinwag 14/1, Did well over fences last season, scoring at Ffos Las and Plumpton. However, well held both starts this term so has something to prove.
LTO Selection:

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(5) Lock's Corner 11/1, Back on track returned to this sphere following a break, going close at Ludlow prior to decisive victories at Catterick and Ayr (both at around 2½m on good to soft). Creditable fifth of 12 in a deeper race at Huntingdon since. Ought to be competitive.
1
1st (3) (4/1 +53%) Mark Of Gold
4/1(+53%)
(3) Mark Of Gold 4/1, Fairly useful winner on the Flat who has taken very well to hurdling, making it 5 wins in 8 starts when seeing off 6 rivals over 19.5f at Lingfield in December. Departed early in Lanzarote over C&D since. Respected with Caoilin Quinn taking 5 lb off.
2
2nd (6) (25/1 +11%) Ballyhome
25/1(+11%)
(6) Ballyhome 25/1, Dual chaser winner at Market Rasen in 2020 and filled runners-up spot over hurdles/fences back at that venue in early summer 2021. Not at his best in a hurdle/chase since returning from an absence but his mark has come down and Jack Hogan takes a further 5 lb off. No shock were he to go well.
3
3rd (2) (7/1 +0%) Will Carver
7/1(+0%)
(2) Will Carver 7/1, Won a C&D maiden and Perth novice in early summer 2021. Absent since but top yard has stuck with him and it'll very interesting to see how much strength there is behind him in the betting.
4
4th (8) (12/1 -71%) Scarpia
12/1(-71%)
(8) Scarpia 12/1, Won at Plumpton around this time last year and bounced back from some lesser efforts when third of 12 in 25f Huntingdon handicap 29 days ago. Needs to show he can string good runs together now.
5th
5th (7) (2.5/1 +44%) Ivaldi
2.5/1(+44%)
(7) Ivaldi 2.5/1, Unexposed sort who fell early on his C&D handicap debut on Boxing Day and shaped better than the result when fourth of 12 over 3m at Ascot since, keeping on from too far back. Likely he has a bigger performance in him soon.
6th
6th (1) (9/1 +18%) Halo Des Obeaux
9/1(+18%)
(1) Halo Des Obeaux 9/1, Things didn't go to plan for this French recruit last season but he got his career back on track when landing a Sandown handicap hurdle in November. Good effort at second attempt over fences when runner-up at Newbury (22.5f, soft) in December. Fell early at Musselburgh since and now back hurdling.
7th
7th (10) (3.33/1 +26%) Don Hollow
3.33/1(+26%)
(10) Don Hollow 3.33/1, Wetherby bumper winner last February who has made a promising start to his hurdle career, striking at the third time of asking at Catterick (19.5f) just after Christmas. Tongue tie added now switching to handicap company. Could easily have more to offer.
|PU|
|PU| (9) (16/1 -45%) Vintage Fizz
16/1(-45%)
(9) Vintage Fizz 16/1, Progressed last spring, winning a pair of handicaps at around 2½m on good to soft. Comfortably his best effort this term when second of 7 over 19.5f at Doncaster 4 weeks ago. Likely to be competitive.
|PU|
|PU| (11) (66/1 -65%) Pontresina
66/1(-65%)
(11) Pontresina 66/1, Chase winner for Oliver Sherwood in October 2020. Showed he retained ability back from an absence for new yard last season but has been off for a further 11 months ahead of this reappearance. Others are more obvious.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(7) Ali Star Bert 5.5/1, Had offered precious little on his chasing debut but landed a gamble on just his second start over fences at Uttoxeter 2 weeks ago. 6 lb higher now but has won off this mark over hurdles.
2
2nd (9) (28/1 -56%) Tudors Treasure
28/1(-56%)
(9) Tudors Treasure 28/1, Bit of an all-or-nothing profile and poor efforts both starts this term.
3
3rd (13) (20/1 -67%) Bignorm
20/1(-67%)
(13) Bignorm 20/1, Out of form so easy to oppose from out of the handicap.
4
4th (12) (6.5/1 -8%) Dysania
6.5/1(-8%)
(12) Dysania 6.5/1, Maiden hurdler/chaser but offered more in recent starts for this yard, latest when third of 11 in handicap chase at Ffos Las (25.3f, soft) 25 days ago. Player.
5th
5th (8) (8/1 +11%) Mr Katanga
8/1(+11%)
(8) Mr Katanga 8/1, Responded well to first-time cheekpieces when off the mark in this race last year off 4 lb higher. Well below that form so far this term but no surprise if he bounces back in first-time blinkers.
6th
6th (6) (8/1 +43%) Wind Tor
8/1(+43%)
(6) Wind Tor 8/1, Back-to-back handicap chase winner over 3m at Exeter in March but well held in 3 starts since. Others appeal more.
7th
7th (1) (4/1 +50%) To Be Sure
4/1(+50%)
(1) To Be Sure 4/1, Dual hurdles winner last season. Yet to convince over fences but latest fourth at Ffos Las was his best yet. Headgear on.
8th
8th (4) (33/1 -106%) Reign Suepreme
33/1(-106%)
(4) Reign Suepreme 33/1, Point winner. Probably would have been placed but for a luckless late exit at Hereford 3 weeks ago, though looked a hard ride in first-time cheekpieces and wouldn't be sure to back that up.
|F|
|F| (10) (7.5/1 +6%) Gibberwell
7.5/1(+6%)
(10) Gibberwell 7.5/1, Ex-Irish hurdler who landed a Wexford maiden hurdle back in October 2020. Struggled since, though stopped the slide to some extent when fourth in this headgear at Huntingdon last month.
|PU|
|PU| (5) (5/1 +17%) Spotty Dog
5/1(+17%)
(5) Spotty Dog 5/1, All the sharper for his reappearance when getting off the mark in 3m Huntingdon handicap last month. Good second at Hereford next time, albeit never looked like winning.
|PU|
|PU| (11) (22/1 -57%) Born In Borris
22/1(-57%)
(11) Born In Borris 22/1, Continues to fall in the weights without showing any sign of taking advantage. Back over fences now and has had a wind op.
|PU|
|PU| (14) (28/1 -75%) Luckello
28/1(-75%)
(14) Luckello 28/1, Poor hurdler for Olly Murphy. Did win twice in the pointing field last spring but ran poorly in a Taunton handicap chase on her Rules return before falling heavily at Hereford 3 weeks ago. 5 lb out of the handicap.
|PU|
|PU| (2) (33/1 -230%) Cuban Pete
33/1(-230%)
(2) Cuban Pete 33/1, Dual chase winner in 2020 but last season's efforts were uninspiring and pulled up both starts this term.

|PU| (3) (40/1 -21%) Talktomenow
40/1(-21%)
(3) Talktomenow 40/1, Dual winner in 2020/21 for Warren Greatrex but has offered little after 21 months off in 3 runs for this yard. Visor/tongue strap on for 1st time.
LTO Selection:
16:17 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(3) Bashful Boy 1/1, 28/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, encouraging fourth of 7 in handicap at this course (12f, AW) 29 days ago, not knocked about. Significantly up in trip. This fairly useful winning hurdler has a good chance on form.
2
2nd (2) (3.33/1 -33%) Smart Champion
3.33/1(-33%)
(2) Smart Champion 3.33/1, Two wins from 6 runs last year. Latest win at Kempton in September. Last of 6 in handicap (6/1) at Wolverhampton (16.6f) 18 days ago so needs to bounce back.
3
3rd (4) (7/1 +30%) Grandee
7/1(+30%)
(4) Grandee 7/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2019. Only fifth of 6 in handicap at Wolverhampton (16.6f, 18/1) 18 days ago so has work to do.

4.5/1(-80%)
(5) Minister For Magic 4.5/1, 20/1 and hooded/tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (12f, AW) 14 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Considered.

(1) Ballykeel 3.33/1, Fairly useful chaser. 9/1, respectable fourth of 17 in handicap chase at Navan (24f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Very good form claims in his bid for a maiden chase success.
2
2nd (8) (80/1 -100%) Clonmeen
80/1(-100%)
(8) Clonmeen 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 12/1, ninth of 13 in hunter chase at Limerick (22.6f, heavy) 60 days ago. Needs a big step forward.

125/1(+17%)
(6) Ballycastle Girl 125/1, Fair hurdler. 200/1, last of 14 in maiden at Bellewstown (12.1f, good to soft). Switches from Flat to chase. Twelve runs since last win in 2020.

1.88/1(+16%)
(3) Salmanino 1.88/1, Fairly useful chaser who landed 9-runner novice chase (6/4) at Punchestown (22.7f, heavy) 41 days ago, just pushed out. Not taken lightly.

6/1(+8%)
(7) Carrolls Cottage 6/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Below-par seventh of 17 in handicap chase (20/1) at Navan (24f, good to soft) 13 days ago. Unreliable individual.

2.25/1(+81%)
(2) Carrig Sam 2.25/1, Useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 8/1, pulled up in minor event at this course (21f, heavy) 66 days ago, losing place when blundered 4 out. Up in trip with work to do.

LTO Selection:
16:30 Fairyhouse Maiden Chase 26f Race Speed Rating Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(2) Stainsby Girl 6/1, Made a winning debut for this yard at Haydock in November but has found life much tougher off higher marks twice since. Bounce back needed.
2
2nd (1) (1.38/1 +0%) Jungle Jack
1.38/1(+0%)
(1) Jungle Jack 1.38/1, Yet to finish outside of the first 2 across 6 starts over hurdles, backing up November's success at Haydock with a creditable second there in December. Straightforward sort who holds solid claims here.
3
3rd (3) (2.25/1 +44%) Voix Du Reve
2.25/1(+44%)
(3) Voix Du Reve 2.25/1, Won over C&D off 5 lb higher last March. Mixed record so far this season but he's very well treated if staging a revival. Might be worth chancing.
4
4th (6) (3.5/1 +56%) Chapel Green
3.5/1(+56%)
(6) Chapel Green 3.5/1, Confirmed promise of hurdle debut second when winning at Kelso (2m) in November. Better than the result in what has turned out to be a warm Wetherby handicap on Boxing Day. Retains potential.
LTO Selection:
16:38 Newcastle Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(6) Lieutenant Rocco 18/1, Dual winner of novice hurdles during 2019/20 campaign and made up into a useful chaser the following season. No real impact in 5 runs for new yard. pulled up over fences at Hereford (25.2f) 26 days ago. Had wind op since but he's clearly tough to assess at present.
2
2nd (5) (25/1 -14%) Iconic Muddle
25/1(-14%)
(5) Iconic Muddle 25/1, Pretty low-mileage 10-y-o who boasts fairly useful form over hurdles/fences but not seen in competitive action since finishing fifth in a C&D handicap during late 2021. Betting should prove a useful guide with yard also saddling Not Another Muddle.
3
3rd (11) (18/1 +0%) Not Another Muddle
18/1(+0%)
(11) Not Another Muddle 18/1, Veteran chaser who proved he retains some ability on back of almost 2 years on the side lines when sixth in 10-runner Exeter handicap (19.2f) 24 days ago. Task is to build on that now but he's definitely been given a chance by the assessor.
4
4th (4) (6/1 +25%) Guy
6/1(+25%)
(4) Guy 6/1, Winless since 2020 and he enhanced his frustrating run of placed efforts when third at Ludlow (23.8f) in December. Struggled to get seriously competitive in premier handicap at Cheltenham latest and this return to calmer waters rates an obvious plus.
5th
5th (7) (10/1 +0%) Foxboro
10/1(+0%)
(7) Foxboro 10/1, Doubled chase tally at Fontwell (21.6f) in December but jumping let him down at Newbury (26f) next time and he was beaten some way out at Wincanton (25f) 23 days ago. First-time blinkers could well have positive effect now, though.
6th
6th (8) (12/1 -60%) Go Steady
12/1(-60%)
(8) Go Steady 12/1, Back to winning ways in a veterans' event at Lingfield (20f) in December and remained in good heart subsequently, finishing a close-up third at Leicester (20f) 24 days ago. Each-way possibilities again in present groove.
7th
7th (9) (16/1 +20%) Generous Day
16/1(+20%)
(9) Generous Day 16/1, C&D winner who built on reappearance hurdles run to score over fences at Southwell (20.4f) in November. Good second at Warwick followed and drop back to 2m may not have suited ideally at Hereford next time. Not out of things.
8th
8th (2) (6.5/1 +28%) The Edgar Wallace
6.5/1(+28%)
(2) The Edgar Wallace 6.5/1, Progressive hurdler who has improved for switch to chasing, albeit again found wanting in the latter stages having travelled like the second best horse at the weights when fourth behind Quick Draw over C&D 6 weeks ago. Eased 4 lb since at least.
9th
9th (10) (40/1 -21%) Luckofthedraw
40/1(-21%)
(10) Luckofthedraw 40/1, Successful in handicap chases at Fontwell and Huntingdon last season, though ended the campaign with a couple of below-par efforts and similar story in 2 starts over hurdles/fences so far this winter.
|PU|
|PU| (3) (1.62/1 -17%) Quick Draw
1.62/1(-17%)
(3) Quick Draw 1.62/1, Scored twice over hurdles for Tom Lacey last term and enhanced good record in blinkers for new yard (now 3-4) with back-to-back handicap chase victories in recent months, latterly over C&D. Career-high mark to defy here but he's clearly thriving and big player once more.
|PU|
|PU| (1) (7.5/1 +0%) Kap Auteuil
7.5/1(+0%)
(1) Kap Auteuil 7.5/1, Three-time chase winner last season who disappointed in handicaps at Aintree/Hereford in December but stopped the slide from an easing mark when runner-up behind re-opposing Quick Draw over C&D last month. Needs to build on that now.

2
2nd (1) (7/1 -75%) Crack Du Ninian
7/1(-75%)
(1) Crack Du Ninian 7/1, Dual hurdle/chase scorer. Has struggled over fences lately but he was third over hurdles off 10 lb higher on his reappearance in October so is dangerously well treated if a return to the smaller obstacles sparks a revival.
3
3rd (9) (14/1 -27%) Yellow Jacket
14/1(-27%)
(9) Yellow Jacket 14/1, Poor form when fourth in maiden/novice hurdles last spring and fared no better for a switch to handicap company on his reappearance 24 days ago. May strip fitter for the outing, though, and it's still early in his career.

3.5/1(+0%)
(10) Tonto Foley 3.5/1, From a good family. Every chance when fell 2 out sole start in Irish points. Well beaten in 3 novice hurdles in the autumn but no surprise were he to prove a diferent proposition now handicapping after a break. One to keep a close eye on in the betting.
5th

33/1(-65%)
(11) Hapy La Vie 33/1, Made frame both starts in Irish points but he's offered very little in 3 hurdle starts this winter. Now goes handicapping off a basement mark with cheekpieces added. Worth a precautionary betting check.

6/1(-9%)
(7) Largy Reach 6/1, Still to get his head in front. Some creditable efforts in the autumn but last month's Wetherby run was underwhelming.

(2) Copper Bay 2.75/1, Once-raced filly. 25/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at this C&D on debut 23 days ago, green but not knocked about. Open to progress and claims in a thin maiden.

(6) Pink Stripes 16/1, Poor filly. No better than mid-field in 8 Flat runs, most recently when seventh of 9 in nursery (20/1) at this course (5f) 109 days ago. Can make more impact in this company.

(4) Fighting Temeraire 40/1, Course winner. Latest win at Nottingham in July. Seventh of 8 in handicap (16/1) at this course (7f) 23 days ago, slowly away. Recent efforts suggest age is catching up with him.

(2) Eternal Hope 1.2/1, Highly promising sort. Third of 7 in minor event (11/2) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) on debut 12 days ago, running on. Open to plenty of improvement and she should have a big part to play.
2
2nd (7) (3.5/1 -75%) Mountain Song
3.5/1(-75%)
(7) Mountain Song 3.5/1, Promising type. Second of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 5/6) 12 days ago, finishing just ahead of re-opposing stablemate Eternal Hope. Likely to improve and bold show likely.
3
3rd (3) (1.38/1 +50%) Glowing Sky
1.38/1(+50%)
(3) Glowing Sky 1.38/1, Once-raced filly. 9/2, fifth of 13 in minor event at Newmarket (7f, soft) on debut in October, not knocked about. This step up in trip promises to help unlock improvement and she merits respect.
4
4th (6) (33/1 -106%) Midsummer Dance
33/1(-106%)
(6) Midsummer Dance 33/1, Once-raced filly. 16/1, sixth of 9 in minor event at Kempton (8f) on debut 21 days ago, not knocked about. Up in trip and should progress but yard fields a more appealing candidate in Glowing Sky on this occasion.
5th

80/1(-100%)
(1) Afloat 80/1, 27,000 gns yearling, 50,000 gns 2-y-o, Sea The Moon filly. Half-sister to 10.5f winner Heft and 1m/9f winner Fragile Planet. Yard saddles another newcomer in Grand Duchess Olga and the betting should offer clues with regard to the perceived pecking order.
6th
6th (4) (80/1 -142%) Grand Duchess Olga
80/1(-142%)
(4) Grand Duchess Olga 80/1, Sir Percy filly. Sister to 1¼m-1¾m winner Peripeteia and half-sister to useful 1m-1¼m winner Arch Moon. Dam 1¼m winner who stayed 1½m. Afloat is presumably the stable first-string, albeit the betting should point the way.
7th
7th (5) (250/1 -150%) Kalama Sunrise
250/1(-150%)
(5) Kalama Sunrise 250/1, Once-raced filly. Last of 9 in minor event at Kempton (8f, 66/1) on debut 21 days ago, very slowly away. Up in trip and needs to raise her game considerably.

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.
