WILFUL should have learned plenty from his hurdles bow when a close-up second at Huntingdon earlier in the month. That experience will stand him in good stead and this looks a suitable opportunity for him to shed his maiden tag in this discipline. Tea And Chats shaped better than the beaten distance over fences at Lingfield suggests. He should prove far more competitive on this switch to timber and is feared most, ahead of stable debutant Always Force It.

A progressive winner in bumpers, WILFUL was found out by novicey mistakes but still shaped promisingly when runner-up on hurdles debut at Huntingdon 25 days ago and this looks a good opportunity for Jonjo O'Neill's 5-y-o with improvement anticipated. Tea And Chats rates the main danger on the pick of his form.

This looks good for Catterick bumper winner WILFUL, who was a clear second on this month's hurdling debut.
Class & Speed Card

Representing the in-form Mark Walford yard, GOLDWYN posted another creditable effort in defeat when runner-up at Newcastle last month. A similar performance may prove sufficient for the seven-year-old in this weaker-looking affair, with the main threat possibly coming in the shape of Breizh River, who has 6lb to find with the selection on the ratings but further improvement cannot be ruled out. Bodygroove and Rattling Road are also worth a second look.

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and Mark Walford's fairly useful GOLDWYN looks to have been found a very good opportunity to open his account. Breizh River is another with some solid form to his name and next on the list. Bodygroove also enters calculations if, as expected, building on his Carlisle debut second.

The vote goes to the ex-Irish GOLDWYN, who has run two sound races since joining Mark Walford. Bodygroove may chase him home.
Class & Speed Card

Copper Cove has been in fine fettle over hurdles in recent months and warrants consideration on this second attempt at the larger obstacles. However, it could be worth taking a chance on DREAMING BLUE, who travelled with more verve in first-time blinkers when third at Wincanton. The seven-year-old faded on the run-in that day so this ease in distance looks ideal. Valirann Gold can beat Clondaw Robin to third spot.

DREAMING BLUE has been shaping better than the result and may find everything clicking now with Freddie Gingell up for the first time. He's preferred to Copper Cove, who is well treated based on hurdling form.

Topweight DREAMING BLUE (nap) may benefit from today's drop back in trip and is selected in the hope he dominates from the front.
Class & Speed Card

Although Marshalled arrives as the highest-rated contender in this selling event, he hasn't been seen over hurdles since June 2022. His two performances over fences this year have lacked spark so it may be worth taking a chance on MADE FOR YOU instead. Olly Murphy's charge is capable on his day and a return to this stiffer test of stamina could be enough for him to land the spoils. Foveros arrives in good heart and is a viable alternative.

MADE FOR YOU needs to shrug off a lesser effort at Sandown on his latest outing but the step back up in trip/ease in class are both positives and he could be the answer with the refitting of blinkers also likely to put an extra edge on him. Art of Diplomacy is another to consider despite a lengthy absence to overcome. Foveros completes the shortlist.

This can go to MADE FOR YOU, who handles these conditions and hails from a stable with a good record in sellers.
Class & Speed Card

Although HE'S A LATCHICO must put a disappointing sixth here behind him, his previous runner-up effort at Lingfield still reads well. Gary Moore's inmate could be freshened up by a 43-day break and it's too soon to be writing him off. The biggest threat may emerge from Getaway Drumlee, who found only a well-supported stablemate too strong on his handicap bow at Doncaster, on his return from the sidelines. Royal Rhythm makes most appeal of the remainder.

HE'S A LATCHICO is best not treated on his latest effort and he'd been going the right way previously, so he can prove that he's still comfortably ahead of his mark in this sphere. Royal Rhythm looks a solid alternative and Getaway Drumlee can feature if he steps up on a promising return.

The one with most potential is GETAWAY DRUMLEE, who was second off today's mark on last month's belated seasonal/handicap debut.
Class & Speed Card

ROYAL MER relished the drop in distance when regaining the winning thread over 2m at Leicester. A 6lb rise looks far from insurmountable and a fourth victory of the season could beckon. Although beaten when coming to grief at Sedgefield, Harel Du Marais performed with enough credit to suggest that he can pose a danger in this event. He may give the selection most to think about, ahead of C&D scorer Beat The Edge.

HAREL DU MARAIS produced a promising first effort over the larger obstacles when fourth at Leicester in January so, provided he's none the worse for his last fence fall at Sedgefield last time, Mark Walford's 7-y-o can come out on top at the expense of fellow grey Royal Mer, who has enjoyed a productive campaign and has a career-high mark to overcome as a result. Previous C&D winner Beat The Edge comes with risks attached but he can fill out third.

The in-form Royal Mer should go well but preference is for last year's winner BEAT THE EDGE, who is well handicapped at present.
Class & Speed Card

The vote goes to IN D'OR, who is 5lb well-in under a penalty having bolted up at Ludlow a week ago. Venetia Williams' charge has few miles on the clock and this looks a good opportunity to double his tally. Aworkinprogress failed to get involved over 2m at Plumpton, but is worth a second look now upped in trip. Ask Lileen, who defeated Grade 1 winner Apple Away in a point-to-point in February 2022, makes significant appeal now pitched into a handicap.

IN D'OR came home well clear at Ludlow last week despite all but coming down at the last and he's fancied to follow up under a penalty. Ask Lilleen and Aworkinprogress are perhaps the most interesting opponents, possible that both have yet to fully reveal all they are capable of.

Having won with plenty in hand at Ludlow last Thursday, IN D'OR is ahead of the handicapper under a 7lb penalty and can follow up.
Class & Speed Card

A faller at the last when leading in a novice hurdle here over the extended 2m3f last month, WILLSBURG now moves in the handicap ranks and is taken to overturn form with the arguably fortuitous winner Magical King on 4lb better terms. Stepping up in trip is another plus and it may be that the class-dropping Yes Day and Newbury winner Knowwhentoholdem give him the most to think about. Good Look Charm and Idem are plenty capable on their day as well.

KNOWWHENTOHOLDEM improved to score readily against more exposed types at Newbury last time and he's joined an in-form yard since, so he gets the nod over Yes Day, who looks sure to give another good account. Willsburg also warrants a mention.

Preference is for AL KALILA, an unexposed 5yo who is open to improvement on his handicap debut. Knowwhentoholdem is a danger.
Class & Speed Card

Things seem to have clicked into place for LIGHTONTHEWING of late and he arrives having notched up back-to-back victories. The nine-year-old was far too strong at Exeter last week and a 7lb penalty, which means he is still 4lb well-in, might not stop him from landing the hat-trick. Captain Claude is also 4lb well-in having occupied the runner-up spot in a Wincanton race that couldn't be working out any better. Leading Swoop has plenty of scope for improvement over the larger obstacles and may improve for the fitting of first-time cheekpieces.

CAPTAIN CLAUDE was surrounded by subsequent winners when runner-up at Wincanton 6 weeks ago so must have a big chance back down in class with his good record here an additional plus. The thriving Lightonthewing is the obvious danger.

Lightonthewing bolted up last week but narrow preference is for CAPTAIN CLAUDE, who won here on his first two chase starts.
Class & Speed Card

JEANS MAITE wasn't for catching from the front over C&D last time out and a 3lb rise may underestimate Roy Bowring's charge as she looks to notch up a ninth career success. The selection goes particularly well at this track and she should have too much for The Defiant, who bounced back to winning ways at Chelmsford earlier in the month. Darlo Pride and C&D winner Sir Benedict are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

THE DEFIANT justified good support at Chelmsford last time and, with Oisin Murphy booked, he's worth a chance to follow up from what still appears to be a feasible mark. Jeans Maite is a definite threat after making all here 8 days ago and Darlo Pride should be on the premises once more.

Wedgewood offered hope of a full revival last week but CATCH CUNNINGHAM can build on the promise of last month's stable debut.
Class & Speed Card

It is difficult to look past IMPERIAL ALEX, who deservedly got off the mark over fences with an imperious display at Chepstow. Tom Lacey's charge continues to improve and is 5lb well-in under his penalty so is readily preferred to Taste The Fear, who has dropped 3lb below his last winning mark, although he has shown very little of late. The unexposed Pats Dream would have claims if bouncing back to the form of his third at Kelso in October.

Having finished runner-up on his previous 4 starts, IMPERIAL ALEX opened his chase account with a wide-margin victory at Chepstow 11 days ago and he holds leading claims under a penalty. Taste The Fear could be the be one to give the selection most to think about back up in trip, ahead of Pats Dream.

The Tom Lacey-trained IMPERIAL ALEX deservedly got off the mark over fences in fine style at Chepstow, and he can defy a 7lb penalty.
Class & Speed Card

Electric Mason must saddle a penalty having struck at Kempton last month but he still merits respect, as does Lightning Maqueen, who finished a creditable third at the Sunbury circuit just 12 days ago. However, preference is for TWIN EARTH. Archie Watson has his team in flying form and his representative, who made a pleasing debut when third at Hereford, can put that initial experience to good use.

Gary Moore has an excellent record in this and his Jack Hobbs gelding LIGHTNING MAQUEEN is taken to build on earlier promise and get off the mark at the chief expense of unraced-stablemate Pearl's Pirate. Electric Mason, Laurens Bay and Twin Earth are others who can have a say in an intriguing bumper.

Kempton winner ELECTRIC MASON has a penalty to carry here but the form of his Ascot third in November suggests he's up to the task.
Class & Speed Card

This can go the way of TRADESMAN, who should be well suited by dropping back in trip having won two of his last three starts over this distance. The form of his stable is another plus and, off a mark of 75, he is narrowly preferred to the class-dropping Artisan Dancer, who also has a very consistent record over the trip. Chaos Control spent all of last year over hurdles and must be noted on his return to the level.

ARTISAN DANCER has been holding form well and could be marked up above the result slightly last time, so he makes most appeal in a tricky staying event. Wonderful Eagle is of note making his Flat debut for this stable and the in-form Tradesman is unlikely to be far away.

Chaos Control is interesting back on the Flat but EVENING STORY could have more to give now her stamina is being more fully tested.
Class & Speed Card

KINDER KID was an impressive winner over C&D nine days ago, when stepped up to 3m for the first time. With further improvement to come over this staying trip, he is fancied to defy the penalty en route to further success. It's Maisy found just one too strong when going in search of her hat-trick at Southwell last month and she merits respect from an unchanged mark, while Asa is one to look out for on her second start following wind surgery.

KINDER KID was well suited by the step up to 3m when opening his account in ready fashion over C&D last week and is fully expected to follow up under a penalty. It's Maisy should continue in form, while Just In A Bit shaped better than the distance beaten suggests at Hereford and may have benefited from a breathing operation.

The unexposed 6yo KINDER KID (nap) relished the step up in trip when winning by 7l over C&D and can follow up under a penalty.
Class & Speed Card

A well-bred son of Frankel and brother to Fillies' Mile winner Quadrilateral, CADOGAN PLACE should relish this trip on debut, and he is fancied to come out on top for his in-form connections. Related to a Listed winner of Pat Twomey's over further, Hidden Law is another to note first time out, likewise Grebastarky being a half-brother to the talented Watch Me. Of the two with experience, Infatuator stands out after a promising second on debut at Newcastle.

A host of choicely-bred newcomers from top yards in this small-field affair, with HIDDEN LAW given preference over Grebastarky without the benefit of market clues. Cadogan Place is another worth monitoring in the betting, whilst Infatuator, one of 2 in the line-up with previous form, looks sure to improve on his encouraging debut second at Newcastle earlier this month.

Some well-related newcomers are on show and CADOGAN PLACE is tentatively preferred to Grebastarky and Hidden Law.
Class & Speed Card

Olly Murphy often does well in these types of contests and DANGEROUS TOUCH, who was picked up for 135,000 pounds at the sales in December having struck the woodwork in a Ballindenisk point-to-point, could be the answer to this tricky puzzle. Martin Plage has shown promise on both of his starts under Rules and must feature prominently in calculations, while others to note include Jeune Prince, Seek Him There and Stress Reaction.

DANGEROUS TOUCH was sold for a tidy sum after going close in an Irish point in December so he's taken to make a winning start for a yard that has a good record in bumpers. Martin Plage is worth another chance to confirm the promise of his Cheltenham debut so is next best ahead of Jeune Prince, who showed plenty to work on at Carlisle.

Point runner-up DANGEROUS TOUCH is taken to make a winning start for Olly Murphy, having changed hands for £135,000.
Class & Speed Card

Suspicion confirmed the promise that he displayed on debut when getting off the mark over a mile at Kempton last month. Ollie Sangster's colt has to be of interest on the back of that effort, but he may struggle to give 6lb to VIBRATO. The son of No Nay Never was back in fourth when making his debut on that occasion and, with that run under his belt, he may be able to reverse the form on these terms. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but King's Fountain is the pick of them.

SUSPICION looked a good prospect when going in at Kempton last time and is fancied to make light of his 6 lb penalty at the chief expense of Vibrato, who made an encouraging start when fourth to Ollie Sangster's colt that day and can build on it now. King's Fountain appeals as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

King's Fountain's debut promise isn't forgotten but the race-fit SUSPICION can take another step forward from his Kempton win.
Class & Speed Card

LOUGH LEANE arrives here on the back of four wins this year and a 6lb higher mark than the most recent of those victories may not be enough to stop him here. That said, the unexposed Beau Gars cannot be discounted on his handicap bow, while Soames Forsyte and Win Win Power are others to note. Racing Demon is interesting on his return with Oisin Murphy doing the steering.

LOUGH LEANE continues to progress this year and is respected in his bid for the 5-timer, with Soames Forsyte and Win Win Power completing the shortlist.

Win Win Power has a fine C&D record but LOUGH LEANE is 4lb well in for his recent Wolverhampton win and he is the one to beat.
Class & Speed Card

King Of York has been running consistently well this year and has to be on the shortlist following his 7f success here last week. However, marginal preference is for GREAT BLASKET, who has been running well in defeat of late and the application of first-time blinkers could bring about further improvement. Turbo Command edges out Big Narstie to be best of the rest.

A new addition to the Ruth Carr yard, RETRACTION shaped most encouragingly on his all-weather/handicap debut here earlier in the month and a chance is taken he'll step forward again with a recent run now under his belt. Last-time-out winner King of York and Landlordtothestars have both proved most consistent throughout the winter and make plenty of appeal again.

Lightly raced RETRACTION ran promisingly on his handicap debut here and should come on for the run. Landlordtothestars is next best.
Class & Speed Card

SILVER TRUMPET stripped fitter for his reappearance fourth at Lingfield when running out a game winner on his second start in a handicap over 7f at Kempton last month. Nudged up just 2lb, the suspicion is that there is more winning to be done before the handicapper has his measure. Dangers are aplenty and headed by Super Hit, who was turned over at short odds at Wolverhampton last month, but this drop to 7f can help him settle better in the early exchanges. Yaajooz is another to bear in mind.

YAAJOOZ made a promising start to life with George Boughey when runner-up at Wolverhampton last time out and with improvement very much on the cards he can go one better off the same mark. Super Hit wasn't seen to best effect when fourth at the same track and could emerge as the chief threat ahead of in-form Silver Trumpet.

A competitive race of its type but the claims of YAAJOOZ (nap) seem particularly compelling. Berry Clever may be the main threat.
Class & Speed Card

GLAMOROUS EXPRESS scored with the minimum of fuss over 6f at Newcastle last week, and he can make light work of a 5lb penalty to bring up a March hat-trick. Westmorian arrives on the back of an excellent second over C&D earlier this month and he rates as the main danger to the selection off a 5lb higher mark, while the consistent One More Dream shaped as if this drop back to 6f will suit when finishing fourth over 7f at Newcastle latest.

A wide-open sprint handicap and with that in mind it could be worth chancing TEMPLE BRUER. A 5-time winner for his present yard, he returns from 5 months off on an appealing mark judged on the pick of his early-season form from this time last year and a headgear switch could also put an extra edge on him. Glamorous Express and Westmorian both arrive in good order and hold sound claims, as does One More Dream for all his mark has crept up again.

Glamorous Express is feared in his hat-trick bid but DIGITAL may be able to make a winning start for his new stable.
Class & Speed Card

Punters will need to be in a forgiving mood to side with CLIPSHAM LA HABANA, but it might just pay to do so. He weakened into third in a similar contest over C&D on his penultimate start, prior to finishing fifth most recently, but, sporting headgear for the first time off his lowest mark since 2022, he can get his head in front. Tyke finished last over 5f at Newcastle earlier this month, but he is the type to bounce back and is respected now over 6f, while Many A Star has been plying his trade in Dubai this winter and commands attention back on home soil.

SHOWTIME MAHOMES caught the eye when third at Wolverhampton when last seen in November so he could be the answer (can go well fresh). Tyke is expected to bounce back quickly returned to a track he goes well at, while the selection's stablemate Bicep is also worth considering.

The return to Southwell could reinvigorate TYKE who brings a strong C&D record into the race. Showtime Mahomes can chase him home.

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.
