13:45 Market Rasen Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (3) (6/1 +25%) Chaos Control	6/1(+25%)	(3) Chaos Control 6/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat who made winning debut for current yard at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in November and nearly followed up on hurdling bow when 1½ lengths second of 9 to Samuel Spade at Kempton. Needs to cast aside a lesser effort at Huntingdon.
2 2nd (4) (2.5/1 +38%) Charles St	2.5/1(+38%)	(4) Charles St 2.5/1, Sold out of George Boughey's yard for 50,000 gns in August and would have made a winning hurdles debut had he applied himself fully in November. Again found wanting for application under pressure when second switched to a handicap 12 days ago.
3 3rd (1) (2/1 -6%) Active Duty	2/1(-6%)	(1) Active Duty 2/1, Fairly useful maiden on Flat (stays 1½m) in Ireland. Sold out of Stephen O'Donoghue's stable for 60,000 in October. Had wind surgery ahead of hurdles debut and promising start when third amidst inexperience at Ludlow last month. Fared as well as could be expected in Grade 2 company latest.
4 4th (8) (12/1 +0%) Sanitiser	12/1(+0%)	(8) Sanitiser 12/1, Useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1¼m) for Paul & Oliver Cole. Shaped as if in need of the experience sent hurdling when a well-held third at Musselburgh last month. Bit more like it at Doncaster but could be a handicap project. Cheekpieces on.
5th 5th (7) (28/1 -75%) Our Scholar	28/1(-75%)	(7) Our Scholar 28/1, Dam sister to fairly useful hurdler (2m winner) Praxiteles. Fair on Flat, stays 1¾m, quickly back to form last time. Sold from John Patrick Murtagh 21,000 gns later in October.
\|F\| \|F\| (6) (3.33/1 -48%) Open Champion	3.33/1(-48%)	(6) Open Champion 3.33/1, Fairly useful form on Flat (stays 1¾m), won maiden in August before mid-field in 2 useful handicaps. Sold from Roger Varian £70,000 in October and joined another top stable. Has to be of interest.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (33/1 +0%) Benjamin Bear	33/1(+0%)	(2) Benjamin Bear 33/1, Dam half-sister to useful hurdler (stays 3m) Kashmir Peak: Fair on Flat, stays 1¼m, won in summer. Never able to land a blow on December's hurdles debut.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (5) (150/1 -127%) Make A Prophet	150/1(-127%)	(5) Make A Prophet 150/1, Dam half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 3m) Italian Riviera. Modest maiden handicapper on Flat, stays 1¼m, below form final start in 2022.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (9) (250/1 -150%) Sous Surveillance	250/1(-150%)	(9) Sous Surveillance 250/1, Poor maiden on the Flat for Alan King, so makes little appeal now going hurdling.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (1.38/1 +54%) Almost Gotaway	1.38/1(+54%)	(1) Almost Gotaway 1.38/1, Got back on the up with gutsy win in 10-runner handicap hurdle over C&D 14 days ago, first two well clear. Up 8 lb but this likeable sort is still weighted to go close again.
2 2nd (4) (3.5/1 +22%) Fame And Fun	3.5/1(+22%)	(4) Fame And Fun 3.5/1, Made a winning handicap debut at Taunton after Christmas and posted a solid third over C&D 14 days ago. Likely to go well again off an unchanged mark.
3 3rd (3) (10/1 -122%) Broomfields Cave	10/1(-122%)	(3) Broomfields Cave 10/1, Point winner who showed fair form when fourth on his hurdles debut in novice at Taunton (16.5f) in December. Not in same form at Chepstow and Wincanton since though so more needed now going into handicaps.
4 4th (7) (4.5/1 +59%) Gavroche D'allier	4.5/1(+59%)	(7) Gavroche D'allier 4.5/1, Cheekpieces on when good third in 19.5f handicap at Huntingdon in January. Failed to stay upped to 2m5f at Fontwell last time so needs considering back in trip.
5th 5th (12) (25/1 -108%) Watchoutitscookie	25/1(-108%)	(12) Watchoutitscookie 25/1, Hooded for 1st time when good fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f) 14 days ago. Needs to back it up now with headgear retained.
6th 6th (10) (66/1 -100%) Hazy Dream	66/1(-100%)	(10) Hazy Dream 66/1, Fair maiden hurdler at his best for Chris Down. Off 19 months before coming in a well-held eighth in handicap at Wincanton (19.8f) 19 days ago. Lots more required for her new yard.
7th 7th (11) (14/1 +58%) Baliyad	14/1(+58%)	(11) Baliyad 14/1, Won Stratford selling handicap in September and mainly in good form since. Not discounted off an easing mark.
8th 8th (14) (125/1 -56%) Freddie Fleetfoot	125/1(-56%)	(14) Freddie Fleetfoot 125/1, Has yet to show any form of note, hooded/cheekpieces on when only sixteenth in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f) 81 days ago. Makes handicap debut with lots to find.
9th 9th (8) (28/1 -180%) Lookingdandy	28/1(-180%)	(8) Lookingdandy 28/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. 150/1, thirteenth of 15 in novice at Chepstow (16f) 56 days ago. Makes handicap debut with plenty to find.
10th 10th (6) (16/1 -100%) Kalpaga	16/1(-100%)	(6) Kalpaga 16/1, French import who posted her best effort for current yard when third of 10 in handicap hurdle at Hereford (19.7f) 16 days ago. Not taken lightly of a 2 lb lower mark here.
11th 11th (13) (14/1 -40%) Presgrave	14/1(-40%)	(13) Presgrave 14/1, Modest maiden who posted a very good third of 15 in handicap hurdle over C&D 89 days ago. Not the easiest to predict though so others are still preferred.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (5) (40/1 -186%) Kapitaliste	40/1(-186%)	(5) Kapitaliste 40/1, Dual winner over 18.5f at Newton Abbot in May and in good form until pulled up there last time. Sort to bounce back after a break in refitted cheekpieces.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (9) (40/1 -43%) Free Chakarte	40/1(-43%)	(9) Free Chakarte 40/1, Fair on the Flat in France and scored on hurdles debut at Hexham in June. However, his form has tailed off and others appeal more here.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (50/1 -52%) Sam's The Man	50/1(-52%)	(2) Sam's The Man 50/1, Still a maiden and pulled up in handicap chase at Ffos Las (23.8f) on debut over fences 29 days ago. Switches to hurdles for his new yard (formerly with Katy Price.) with something to prove.

14:15 Market Rasen Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 21f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (8) (2.5/1 -11%) Windtothelightning	2.5/1(-11%)	(8) Windtothelightning 2.5/1, £35,000 purchase out of the pointing field who built on an encouraging hurdle debut third when scoring by 12 lengths at Sedgefield (2½m) last month. Likely to progress again. Big player on handicap debut.
2 2nd (3) (3.5/1 +22%) Presenting A Queen	3.5/1(+22%)	(3) Presenting A Queen 3.5/1, Won 2 bumpers and a 19.5f Chepstow novice hurdle on her first 3 starts under Rules. Has shown signs of temperament when reaching the frame in a pair of novice hurdles since but she is unexposed now moving into handicap company.
3 3rd (5) (6/1 +33%) Phillapa Sue	6/1(+33%)	(5) Phillapa Sue 6/1, Placed both starts in novice hurdles last season and made a successful handicap debut on return at Hereford in November. Bombed at Kelso next time but back on track when third in 21f Wincanton novice 19 days ago. Respected.
4 4th (2) (11/1 +31%) Could Be Trouble	11/1(+31%)	(2) Could Be Trouble 11/1, Fairly useful hurdler who posted a creditable fourth of 9 in 19.5f handicap at Doncaster (good to soft) 24 days ago, weakening only in the closing stages. In the mix.
5th 5th (1) (18/1 +36%) Bon Retour	18/1(+36%)	(1) Bon Retour 18/1, Won twice for Nicky Richards at the end of the summer but the handicapper has looked in charge since, latterly on yard debut.
6th 6th (6) (1.88/1 +37%) Notnowlinda	1.88/1(+37%)	(6) Notnowlinda 1.88/1, Winning Irish pointer who displayed willing attitude when making successful hurdles debut at Warwick. Disappointed in better company at Cheltenham but quickly resumed winning ways back in calmer waters at Catterick last time. Into handicaps now and opening mark looks workable.

14:30 Taunton Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 19f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (9) (28/1 -75%) Professor Calculus	28/1(-75%)	(9) Professor Calculus 28/1, Maiden on Flat/over jumps and will need a first-time visor to give him a lift if he's to break his duck here.
2 2nd (3) (5.5/1 +50%) Port Or Starboard	5.5/1(+50%)	(3) Port Or Starboard 5.5/1, Runner-up 4 times over hurdles last season. Below par both starts since returning from an 8-month break but the handicapper has given him a bit of a chance so certainly can't be discounted.
3 3rd (6) (10/1 +0%) The Rain King	10/1(+0%)	(6) The Rain King 10/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 8.5f). Yet to better modest form over hurdles but his latest 6 lengths fifth in a 2m course handicap was a bit more encouraging. Whether he benefits from this longer trip remains to be seen.
4 4th (4) (2/1 +11%) Dancing Harry	2/1(+11%)	(4) Dancing Harry 2/1, Notched fourth Flat success when taking a 1¾m Salisbury handicap in June. Placed twice in maiden hurdles (2m here latterly) in the autumn and his opening mark in this sphere is very workable based on Flat ability.
5th 5th (12) (6/1 -33%) Horizon D'Or	6/1(-33%)	(12) Horizon D'Or 6/1, Runner-up second of 2 starts in Irish points but he has offered little in 4 novice hurdles. Handicaps provide her with a more realistic chance but would need to see market support to consider.
6th 6th (10) (12/1 -85%) Sister Saint	12/1(-85%)	(10) Sister Saint 12/1, Well beaten in a bumper and 3 hurdles but she's a well-bred sort in top hands and it would be no surprise to see her fare a lot better in handicaps. Market confidence would look significant.
7th 7th (8) (28/1 +15%) Escobedo	28/1(+15%)	(8) Escobedo 28/1, Fair maiden on the Flat . Stepped up on initial efforts over hurdles when third on handicap debut in this sphere at Wincanton (2m, good to soft) in November but ran poorly at Market Rasen 12 weeks later. Now has a first-time visor added to his tongue strap.
8th 8th (1) (25/1 -108%) Prison Break	25/1(-108%)	(1) Prison Break 25/1, Fair winner on Flat for Richard Fahey and stepped on his first 2 hurdle efforts when making a successful handicap debut at Ffos Las in June. Ran to a similar level when fourth at Hereford in November but pulled up at Fontwell 4 weeks later. Has had wind surgery since (also tongue tied first time).
9th 9th (13) (50/1 -25%) Instant Gambler	50/1(-25%)	(13) Instant Gambler 50/1, Has shown little in maiden/novice hurdles. Has a basement mark for his handicap debut but still can't make a case for.
10th 10th (2) (40/1 -233%) Hillsin	40/1(-233%)	(2) Hillsin 40/1, Modest maiden for Gavin Cromwell in Ireland but did record one of his better efforts when fourth in 2m handicap at Limerick 3 weeks ago. Has changed yard since.
11th 11th (11) (20/1 +84%) Sans Of Gold	20/1(+84%)	(11) Sans Of Gold 20/1, Unplaced completed start in points and hasn't offered much over hurdles to date, pulling up on handicap debut last month.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (7) (3.33/1 +70%) Ballygoe	3.33/1(+70%)	(7) Ballygoe 3.33/1, Showed fair form when making the frame first 2 starts over hurdles. Has found life tough in handicaps since but he's been dropped another 5 lb and could be down to a mark he can make an impact from.

14:45 Market Rasen Novices Hurdle (Class 3) 17f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (0.44/1 +30%) Kateira	0.44/1(+30%)	(1) Kateira 0.44/1, Fairly useful in bumpers and found plenty to make a successful start over hurdles at Uttoxeter (15.7f) in November. Upped in trip and defied a penalty in the style of a smart prospect at Huntingdon. Will go on improving.
2 2nd (4) (9/1 +18%) Shelikesthelights	9/1(+18%)	(4) Shelikesthelights 9/1, Bumper winner who shaped encouragingly by the end switched to hurdling after 6 months off when second at Plumpton in October but was held back by her jumping at Fontwell next time and has since left Joe Tizzard.
3 3rd (3) (7.5/1 -88%) Passionate Pursuit	7.5/1(-88%)	(3) Passionate Pursuit 7.5/1, Fourth in a Chepstow bumper on Rules debut and stepped up on that when just touched off in a Wincanton maiden hurdle (15.2f) in November. In the process of confirming that promise (likely to have won) when unseating her rider soon after 2 out back there on Boxing Day. Remains with potential.
4 4th (7) (50/1 +0%) Valentine Getaway	50/1(+0%)	(7) Valentine Getaway 50/1, Closely related to the classy Queens Brook but just minor promise so far and will be of more in interest in handicaps over further after this run.
5th 5th (5) (20/1 -135%) Stowaway Jess	20/1(-135%)	(5) Stowaway Jess 20/1, Sent of odds-on and duly obliged in 7-runner bumper at Southwell on debut in April. Improved in hitting in the frame at Warwick 6 months on and should have a future over hurdles.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (7/1 +50%) Mrs Grimley	7/1(+50%)	(2) Mrs Grimley 7/1, Fair bumper winner who has shown similar form over hurdles, opening her account at the third attempt in novice at Ffos Las last month. Not disgraced when third on handicap debut at Leicester subsequently but more needed back in novice company.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (2.12/1 -13%) Stormy Flight	2.12/1(-13%)	(1) Stormy Flight 2.12/1, Winless since early 2021 but he got right back on track after a wind op when clear second of 5 in handicap chase at Chepstow (23.6f) 18 days ago. Holds very good claims nudged up only 1 lb.
2 2nd (8) (6/1 +33%) Dock Road	6/1(+33%)	(8) Dock Road 6/1, Winless over fences but arrives in good nick for his current yard, third of 10 in handicap chase at Hereford (25.2f) 16 days ago. Can give another good account.
3 3rd (5) (9/1 +18%) Premiumaccess	9/1(+18%)	(5) Premiumaccess 9/1, Twelve runs since his last win in 2020 and only sixth of 8 in handicap chase at Exeter (24.2f) 42 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter.
4 4th (4) (28/1 +0%) Across The Line	28/1(+0%)	(4) Across The Line 28/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser for Dan Skelton. Won a Stratford hunter chase for this yard in May but has found life harder in handicap company since. Blinkers are reached for now.
5th 5th (7) (4.5/1 +25%) All Dancer	4.5/1(+25%)	(7) All Dancer 4.5/1, Fairly useful ex-French 17f hurdles winner. Is a chaser on looks but yet to match hurdles form in this sphere, only sixth of 8 at Huntingdon last time. Plenty more is required.
6th 6th (2) (4.5/1 -20%) Trixster	4.5/1(-20%)	(2) Trixster 4.5/1, Won 3m Southwell handicap chase under this rider last spring. Creditable placed efforts here and Catterick last two runs and ought to be in the shake-up.
7th 7th (3) (7.5/1 -7%) Reserve Tank	7.5/1(-7%)	(3) Reserve Tank 7.5/1, Inconsistent sort who is winless since 2019. Best of his three efforts for current yard when fourth of 13 in handicap chase at Chepstow (19.4f) 18 days ago. Needs to back it up now.
8th 8th (6) (12/1 -20%) Potters Venture	12/1(-20%)	(6) Potters Venture 12/1, Fairly useful hurdler for Philip Hobbs who scored over fences on his yard debut at Newton Abbot (25.8f) in October. Well held all three starts since, though, and tried in cheekpieces here.

15:15 Market Rasen Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 23f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (7/1 -27%) Ballintubber Boy	7/1(-27%)	(4) Ballintubber Boy 7/1, Clumsy sort overcame typical jumping errors to score at Stratford in October and ran respectably in first-time visor when fourth of 8 in handicap at Leicester (20.5f, good to soft) 82 days ago. Considered.
2 2nd (1) (4/1 -14%) Martha Brae	4/1(-14%)	(1) Martha Brae 4/1, Course winner who arrives on the back of a good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (25f) 57 days ago. Firmly in the picture.
3 3rd (3) (1.62/1 +28%) Kingofthewest	1.62/1(+28%)	(3) Kingofthewest 1.62/1, Dual hurdles winner at Taunton and Exeter last February and posted a very good seventh of 13 in 18f Exeter handicap 20 days ago. Weighted to go well off a 4 lb lower mark here on his first try over this longer trip.
4 4th (5) (16/1 +20%) Forecast	16/1(+20%)	(5) Forecast 16/1, Three-time winner over hurdles in first spell for this yard and added to tally over fences for Dr Richard Newland during 2021. Yet to find his best form since rejoining this stable though so others appeal more.
5th 5th (6) (4/1 +0%) Gentleman Valley	4/1(+0%)	(6) Gentleman Valley 4/1, Made a successful handicap debut after 8 months off at Uttoxeter in September and backed it up with good runner-up at Worcester (23f, heavy) since. Can give another good account back from a break if cutting out the errors.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (5.5/1 -10%) Let's Have Another	5.5/1(-10%)	(2) Let's Have Another 5.5/1, Course winner in October but he ran a moody race sent chasing when seventh in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20.9f) 77 days ago. Back over hurdles with blinkers on and a bit to prove.

15:30 Taunton Handicap Hurdle (Class 2) 16f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (7) (2.75/1 +54%) Colonial Empire	2.75/1(+54%)	(7) Colonial Empire 2.75/1, Bumper winner who has got firmly on track in handicaps this season, off the mark at Leicester (15.5f) and building on that with a facile success at Ffos Las (15.8f). Well backed but came up short in her hat-trick bid at Exeter, however.
2 2nd (5) (4/1 +0%) Boombawn	4/1(+0%)	(5) Boombawn 4/1, Largely progressive sort who landed the odds in a 3-runner listed contest at Kempton on return before posting good second in Huntingdon handicap. Possibly unsuited by change of tactics when well held in intermediate handicap at Newbury last time and could bounce back after a break.
3 3rd (3) (10/1 -54%) Finest View	10/1(-54%)	(3) Finest View 10/1, Completed her 4-timer at Cartmel in May. Faced a stiff task in Doncaster Grade 2 on her return for a new yard last month (formerly with Alan King) and this is more suitable.
4 4th (1) (2.5/1 +64%) Silent Revolution	2.5/1(+64%)	(1) Silent Revolution 2.5/1, Made it 2 wins from 3 starts over hurdles in a novice at Chepstow in April. Disappointing chasing debut/reappearance at Newton Abbot but can have his latest run back over hurdles at Newbury easily excused (badly hampered 3 out). Not ruled out.
5th 5th (6) (3.33/1 +5%) Amelia's Dance	3.33/1(+5%)	(6) Amelia's Dance 3.33/1, Enhanced good record over this C&D in December, clearing away to score by 7 lengths. Turned in a rare below-par display (may have come too soon) at Newbury 10 days later but wasted no time getting back on track when runner-up over C&D 2 weeks ago, finishing well. Much respected from 2 lb higher.
6th 6th (2) (33/1 -83%) Poseidon	33/1(-83%)	(2) Poseidon 33/1, Useful chaser at best who made a successful return to hurdling in a seller over C&D in January. Left Gordon Elliott after and was well back in a handicap at Sandown last time.

1 1st (3) (1.38/1 +8%) Hiway One O Three	1.38/1(+8%)	(3) Hiway One O Three 1.38/1, Tongue tied when rattling off a quick-fire hat-trick over hurdles last spring. Similar form when twice in the frame over fences this term but he jumped hesitantly when third at Wincanton last time. Still one to consider though.
2 2nd (4) (3.5/1 +46%) Marajman	3.5/1(+46%)	(4) Marajman 3.5/1, Successful at Southwell in May and got back on track when second in handicap hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good) 23 days ago. Not ruled out back in this sphere.
3 3rd (1) (2.75/1 +27%) Duke Of Luckley	2.75/1(+27%)	(1) Duke Of Luckley 2.75/1, Successful on his chase bow at Catterick (15.6f) in November but below par both runs since here and at Huntingdon. Others appeal more.
4 4th (5) (100/1 +0%) Torrent Des Mottes	100/1(+0%)	(5) Torrent Des Mottes 100/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021 and this veteran came in only seventh of 8 in handicap chase at Huntingdon (19.9f) 12 days ago. 13 lb "wrong" in the weights too.
\|F\| \|F\| (2) (3.5/1 -100%) Keepyourdreamsbig	3.5/1(-100%)	(2) Keepyourdreamsbig 3.5/1, Stepped up on his chase debut effort for new yard when runner-up in 2m Leicester handicap over Christmas. Not disgraced back hurdling at Doncaster last time so rates a player off a 2 lb lower mark returned to fences.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (6) (250/1 -25%) L'es Fremantle	250/1(-25%)	(6) L'es Fremantle 250/1, Course winner but he was pulled up in handicap hurdle here 14 days ago. Hard to fancy back chasing from 17 lb out of the handicap.

16:00 Taunton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 14 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (6) (0.91/1 +0%) Killaloan	0.91/1(+0%)	(6) Killaloan 0.91/1, Showed fair form in a trio of Irish Flat maidens for Johnny Murtagh in 2021. Off 19 months/had wind op and noted doing good late work when third in a Plumpton novice (15.9f) in December. Still looked a work-in-progress at Wincanton 3 weeks ago and he's probably the one to beat.
2 2nd (9) (20/1 +0%) Loop Head	20/1(+0%)	(9) Loop Head 20/1, Westerner gelding. Half-brother to winning hurdler/fairly useful chaser Theatre Mill. Won only start in Irish points but was too free when well held on Chepstow hurdling debut in Nov ember and hooded, he didn't show much more at Ffos Las.
3 3rd (2) (6/1 -100%) Danton	6/1(-100%)	(2) Danton 6/1, Showed ability when fifth of 14 in bumper at Exeter on debut in November, not ideally placed. Pulled up afer reportedly losing his action on Utoxeter hurdles debut but did show more when third over C&D last month.
4 4th (7) (7/1 +72%) King's Castle	7/1(+72%)	(7) King's Castle 7/1, Fair performer on the Flat (stays 1¾m) but looks a handicap project over hurdles.
5th 5th (8) (10/1 +71%) Looking For Larry	10/1(+71%)	(8) Looking For Larry 10/1, Off the mark in points at second attempt. Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Exeter on New Year's Day but did show more over 21.6f there 3 weeks ago. Market drop in trip is a concern.
6th 6th (4) (12/1 +66%) He's My Shadow	12/1(+66%)	(4) He's My Shadow 12/1, Placed in points and showed something to work on when third in a bumper at Exeter on Rules debut. Failed to repeat that effort at Chepstow but back on track to an extent on hurdles debut over 19f a fortnight ago.
7th 7th (14) (9/1 -38%) Nadim	9/1(-38%)	(14) Nadim 9/1, Third foal, dam smart 1¼m-1½m winner in Germany. Modest form when winning 10.5f minor event on Flat at Mons-Ghlin for C. von der Recke in 2022, unplaced in handicap at Hoppegarten final start. That form is hard to weigh up as he now goes hurdling. Tongue tied.
8th 8th (1) (33/1 +78%) Daany	33/1(+78%)	(1) Daany 33/1, Modest form at best in various company.
9th 9th (11) (40/1 -43%) Red Bond	40/1(-43%)	(11) Red Bond 40/1, Fair Flat winner for Keith Dalgleish but friendless in the betting and showed nothing in a claimer for new yard 3 weeks ago. Tongue tie replaces cheekpieces.
\|F\| \|F\| (12) (150/1 -733%) Abigael	150/1(-733%)	(12) Abigael 150/1, Weakened quickly in a bumper at Ludlow last month. Now goes hurdling with yard going much better.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (13) (33/1 -18%) Cowboy	33/1(-18%)	(13) Cowboy 33/1, Pulled up on hurdles debut last summer but since tasted success on the level for new yard last month. This will reveal more.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (5) (40/1 -122%) Imperial Admiral	40/1(-122%)	(5) Imperial Admiral 40/1, €18,000 3-y-o, Mount Nelson gelding. Dam (h100), 19f-23f hurdle winner, sister to very smart hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 25f) The Storyteller. Already had a wind op and pulled up on hurdles debut at Hereford in December. Tongue tie on.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (3) (66/1 +18%) Eye Knee	66/1(+18%)	(3) Eye Knee 66/1, Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1¾m) for Tim Easterby. Changed hands for 3,000 gns in October and shaped as though amiss on hurdles debut 3 weeks ago.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (10) (100/1 -100%) Olly's Folly	100/1(-100%)	(10) Olly's Folly 100/1, Modest maiden hurdler who has been badly out of sorts on his last 3 starts.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (2.75/1 -46%) Mixedwave	2.75/1(-46%)	(5) Mixedwave 2.75/1, Poor maiden hurdler who offered little on debut in this sphere last month. Put that firmly behind him when scoring at Leicester since, despite being 5 lb out of the weights, but he was better placed than most that day and doesn't appeal as a likely candidate to follow up.
2 2nd (4) (2/1 +33%) Elleon	2/1(+33%)	(4) Elleon 2/1, Yet to win over fences but has placed on four of his five starts sent chasing for his current connections this season. Produced another good effort when runner-up at Doncaster (3m, good) 12 days ago and, though raised 4 lb for that, it's likely that he will be firmly in the mix once more.
3 3rd (3) (5/1 -67%) Imperial Pride	5/1(-67%)	(3) Imperial Pride 5/1, Placed in a couple of points and, having shown ability in a handful of runs over hurdles, she acquitted herself fairly well when second in a 5-runner handicap here (19.2f, good) on recent chase debut. Definite chance off the same mark here, provided she copes well with this step back up in trip.
4 4th (2) (3.33/1 +49%) Adamhill	3.33/1(+49%)	(2) Adamhill 3.33/1, Failed to complete both starts between the flags and little impact in bumpers/over hurdles. However, better effort when 9 lengths fifth of 10 to Mixedwave at Leicester (22.7f, good to soft) and entitled to get closer to that rival on these revised terms.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (1) (9/1 -29%) Large Action	9/1(-29%)	(1) Large Action 9/1, Left hurdles form well behind with a stylish chase debut success at Musselburgh (20.3f, soft) last month. Decent third over the same C&D recently, for all that his jumping wasn't foot-perfect, and should make his presence felt if coping with this step back up in trip.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (5.5/1 +8%) Hay There Mona	5.5/1(+8%)	(5) Hay There Mona 5.5/1, Has performed with credit in 2 of her 3 starts since switched to handicaps, most recently finishing fourth in an 11-runner Ffos Las (21.9f, heavy) contest in a first-time tongue strap (retained here). Doesn't look especially progressive but down another 1 lb and she's well worth a second look.
2 2nd (3) (16/1 -33%) Kentford Mallard	16/1(-33%)	(3) Kentford Mallard 16/1, Successful at Southwell off a 3 lb lower mark last summer and performed respectably when fourth of 11 over 16.5f here on penultimate start. Not so good at Huntingdon next time but couldn't completely rule out now moving back up in trip.
3 3rd (4) (8/1 -14%) Fine By Her	8/1(-14%)	(4) Fine By Her 8/1, Opened account at Fakenham (23.4f, good) last May and left low-key reappearance behind when hitting the crossbar over the same C&D (soft) last month. 2 lb nudge fair enough and she has to enter calculations back on better ground.
4 4th (2) (3.5/1 -56%) Coillte Eile	3.5/1(-56%)	(2) Coillte Eile 3.5/1, Took advantage of a falling mark on third run for current yard at Chepstow in November. Conditions were probably too testing next time and duly bounced back when scoring at Lingfield (23f, good) last week, winning in the style of one who should make a bold bid to follow up under a penalty.
5th 5th (7) (6/1 +57%) Little Else	6/1(+57%)	(7) Little Else 6/1, Bumper winner at Chepstow in December 2020 but she hasn't made much of an impact in 4 starts since switched to this sphere. Now tried in a tongue strap.
6th 6th (1) (20/1 +0%) Shantou Sunset	20/1(+0%)	(1) Shantou Sunset 20/1, Scored at Stratford last spring on final start for Philip Hobbs but hasn't covered herself in glory in 3 starts for present connections. Needs to get back on track now tried in a tongue strap.
7th 7th (8) (33/1 +0%) Gaia Vallis	33/1(+0%)	(8) Gaia Vallis 33/1, Scored a couple of times last season but hasn't resumed in particularly good form this time round, well beaten when third on return at Leicester and subsequently pulled up at Fontwell.
8th 8th (9) (10/1 +55%) Arctic Footprint	10/1(+55%)	(9) Arctic Footprint 10/1, On a good mark judged on peak form a couple of seasons back but efforts since returning from a sizeable absence in December have not been at all inspiring. Hopes here pinned on the addition of cheekpieces helping to spark a revival.
9th 9th (11) (66/1 +0%) Blue Suede Shoes	66/1(+0%)	(11) Blue Suede Shoes 66/1, Down the field in a couple of bumpers for Dan Skelton and hasn't fared any better since tackling hurdles for new yard, including on recent handicap bow at Hereford. Cheekpieces now tried.
\|F\| \|F\| (6) (1.88/1 +25%) Dancingontheedge	1.88/1(+25%)	(6) Dancingontheedge 1.88/1, All-the-way winner of a 2m Worcester bumper on debut last spring and best effort yet in this sphere when third at Market Rasen (20.6f, good) a fortnight ago. 2 lb lower here and promises to be suited by this stiffer test, so there is certainly cause for optimism.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (10) (80/1 -21%) Martha Burell	80/1(-21%)	(10) Martha Burell 80/1, Little impact in 5 starts to date and she's 6 lb 'wrong' at the weights. Has undergone a wind op.

2 2nd (6) (6/1 +0%) Whatawit	6/1(+0%)	(6) Whatawit 6/1, Sakhee gelding. Brother to bumper winner/fairly useful 2m hurdle winner My Mate Mark, and half-brother to bumper winner/fair hurdler Rafafie, stayed 3m. Dam unraced. Represents excellent Flat yard and interesting what the market makes of him.
3 3rd (4) (8.5/1 -6%) Ilestdancingspirit	8.5/1(-6%)	(4) Ilestdancingspirit 8.5/1, €42,000 3-y-o, Coastal Path gelding. Half-brother to useful bumper winner/useful hurdler Festival d'Ex, stays 2½m, and bumper winner/fair hurdler Good Look Charm. Promising fourth on debut at Huntingdon last month, denied a clear run.
4 4th (2) (0.73/1 +42%) Borodale	0.73/1(+42%)	(2) Borodale 0.73/1, €75,000 3-y-o, Flemensfirth gelding. Half-brother to 4 winners, including useful hurdler/chaser Morning Supreme and bumper winner/useful hurdler Morning Run. Dam unraced. Highly respected on debut.
5th 5th (5) (33/1 +34%) Island Approach	33/1(+34%)	(5) Island Approach 33/1, Scalo gelding. Half-brother to fair French hurdler/chaser Constante and French 19f hurdle winner El Nazar. Little in the way of short-term promise on debut over C&D on Boxing Day.
6th 6th (8) (33/1 +18%) Highfield Prince	33/1(+18%)	(8) Highfield Prince 33/1, Failed to see race out both starts.

1 1st (1) (0.29/1 +49%) Krona	0.29/1(+49%)	(1) Krona 0.29/1, Much improved for a 4f step up in trip when bolting up on Kempton handicap debut last week. 6 lb penalty seems unlikely to stop her with further improvement very much on the cards.
2 2nd (3) (4/1 -20%) Foinix	4/1(-20%)	(3) Foinix 4/1, Career best when winning 9-runner handicap at Chelmsford (1¼m) 11 days ago, making all. Up in trip again. Might be the one to follow Krona home.

1 1st (3) (3/1 +25%) I K Brunel	3/1(+25%)	(3) I K Brunel 3/1, Fairly useful chase winner (at 23f) for Olly Murphy last season and perfect start for new yard when scoring between the flags in November. Rates one of the likelier types.
2 2nd (4) (1.25/1 +17%) Not That Fuisse	1.25/1(+17%)	(4) Not That Fuisse 1.25/1, Useful chaser who completed his hat-trick in 5-runner hunter chase at Fakenham in April. Smooth winner under this rider at Wetherby 17 days ago and he has to command serious respect.
3 3rd (2) (11/1 +0%) From The Heart	11/1(+0%)	(2) From The Heart 11/1, Ungenuine type who ended time for Philip Hobbs out of sorts last summer. Easy winner both starts in points this winter suggests he's back in good order.
4 4th (8) (6/1 +14%) Step Back	6/1(+14%)	(8) Step Back 6/1, Former Bet365 Gold Cup winner but jumped none too fluently and couldn't get into any rhythm on hunter debut 3 weeks ago. Dominating this field should be easier but he still comes with risks attached.
5th 5th (1) (12/1 -140%) Diligent	12/1(-140%)	(1) Diligent 12/1, Successful six times in 2021, five of which over fences and added another couple more over hurdles last spring. Has an absence to overcome but he's an uncomplicated front runner.
6th 6th (5) (8/1 +11%) Solomon Grey	8/1(+11%)	(5) Solomon Grey 8/1, Useful hurdler who landed back-to-back hunters last spring. Possibly failed to stay over 27.5f at Stratford in May but off since and might just need this.
7th 7th (6) (12/1 +33%) Lakota Warrior	12/1(+33%)	(6) Lakota Warrior 12/1, Off mark over fences at first attempt at Doncaster in March but he fell on final start for Dan Skelton in June. Warmed up for this with a runner-up effort between the flags.
8th 8th (7) (100/1 -52%) Golden Poet	100/1(-52%)	(7) Golden Poet 100/1, Had success in the pointing field but established as a poor performer under Rules.

2 2nd (2) (3/1 +25%) Aclaimed Art	3/1(+25%)	(2) Aclaimed Art 3/1, Progressive form, winning 13-runner maiden at Kempton (1m) 24 days ago, all out. Makes handicap debut. Needs considering.
3 3rd (5) (5/1 +0%) No Barrier	5/1(+0%)	(5) No Barrier 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 6 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 27 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Makes tapeta debut. Remains capable of better.
4 4th (7) (12/1 -33%) Miss Sarajevo	12/1(-33%)	(7) Miss Sarajevo 12/1, Won 7f Chelmsford novice in November. Fourth of 13 in similar event at Kempton (7f) 76 days ago. Cheekpieces on first time. Makes handicap debut. Another unexposed sort in this line-up.
5th 5th (8) (18/1 +36%) Iato's Angel	18/1(+36%)	(8) Iato's Angel 18/1, 22/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at this course (7f) 31 days ago. Others are more obvious.
6th 6th (1) (8.5/1 -31%) Comedian Leader	8.5/1(-31%)	(1) Comedian Leader 8.5/1, Four wins already this year, including 2 over 7f here. Ran respectably when last of 4 in 7f handicap at Wolverhampton 8 days ago. Bumps into some unexposed types here.
7th 7th (4) (11/1 -22%) Monty Man	11/1(-22%)	(4) Monty Man 11/1, Winner at Newcastle (7f) in November but ran poorly on his return to action at Wolverhampton (7f) 22 days ago. Bounce back needed.

2 2nd (7) (8/1 +33%) Covert Mission	8/1(+33%)	(7) Covert Mission 8/1, Four wins from 11 runs last year. Latest win at Kempton in October. Eighth of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 31 days ago.
3 3rd (4) (7.5/1 +6%) Masqool	7.5/1(+6%)	(4) Masqool 7.5/1, C&D winner. Five wins from 20 runs last year. 8/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago. Good AW record but looks to be in a lull for now.
4 4th (11) (4.5/1 +59%) Barney's Bay	4.5/1(+59%)	(11) Barney's Bay 4.5/1, Course winner. Twenty one runs since last win in 2021. 6/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 12 days ago. That confirms stamina for this trip.
5th 5th (6) (14/1 -17%) English Spirit	14/1(-17%)	(6) English Spirit 14/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap (9/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 31 days ago. Likely needed that first run for 5 months.
6th 6th (1) (18/1 +10%) Roman Dynasty	18/1(+10%)	(1) Roman Dynasty 18/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Twenty three runs since last win in 2020. Tenth of 12 in handicap (16/1) at Wolverhampton (8.6f), slowly away. Off 102 days.
7th 7th (12) (28/1 -12%) Mabre	28/1(-12%)	(12) Mabre 28/1, Latest win at Kempton in January. 4¾ lengths tenth of 11 to Big Narstie in handicap (16/1) at this course (7.1f) 11 days ago. Return to 1m will help.
8th 8th (2) (5/1 -25%) Big Narstie	5/1(-25%)	(2) Big Narstie 5/1, Didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at this course (7.1f, 13/8) 11 days ago. Retains plenty of handicap scope for this yard so he appeals as being the one to beat from 2 lb higher.
9th 9th (10) (9/1 -20%) Beautiful Crown	9/1(-20%)	(10) Beautiful Crown 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Lingfield (8f, AW) 31 days ago, never nearer. Makes tapeta debut.
10th 10th (3) (12/1 -50%) End Zone	12/1(-50%)	(3) End Zone 12/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Below form fourth of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (8f, 10/3) 12 days ago, not ideally placed. No surprise were he to bounce back.
11th 11th (5) (8/1 -78%) Rumnotred	8/1(-78%)	(5) Rumnotred 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 13/2, respectable fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 15 days ago, left poorly placed. Unexposed and capable of a big showing from this sort of mark.
12th 12th (13) (50/1 -52%) Barneys Gift	50/1(-52%)	(13) Barneys Gift 50/1, 25/1, seventh of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (8f) 12 days ago. Stamina for 1m remains unproven.

3 3rd (8) (7.5/1 +17%) Capofan	7.5/1(+17%)	(8) Capofan 7.5/1, 18/1, fourth of 7 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 26 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Down another 2 lb and it's not hard to envisage this filly making an impact.
4 4th (5) (10/1 -18%) Coloane	10/1(-18%)	(5) Coloane 10/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 10/1, seventh of 9 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f). Off 180 days ahead of this handicap debut and needs to raise her game.
5th 5th (2) (6/1 -9%) Greavsie	6/1(-9%)	(2) Greavsie 6/1, Temperamental sort. Latest win at Kempton in January. 9/2, sixth of 9 in handicap at the same course (8f) 13 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and shouldn't be far away if taking to this surface.
6th 6th (4) (5/1 +17%) Savannah Smiles	5/1(+17%)	(4) Savannah Smiles 5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 13/2, fifth of 11 in minor event at Chelmsford City (6f) 19 days ago. Improvement is possible now handicapping but it will certainly be needed if she's to open her account here.
7th 7th (7) (25/1 +24%) Future Times	25/1(+24%)	(7) Future Times 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 11 in nursery (50/1) at Redcar (6f, good to firm). Off 153 days ahead of this tapeta debut and he's not particularly appealing.

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.
