13:50 Nottingham Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Exoplanet is best excused his effort when finishing last (of six) in the Autumn Stakes at Newmarket in October and likely has more to offer this season. Marginal preference, however, is for TORITO, who travelled with purpose on his debut at Newbury in the same month, before inexperience appeared to get the better of him and he weakened into third. Overactive wasn't disgraced in two all-weather appearances over the winter and Ralph Beckett's inmate makes most appeal of the remainder.

A small field but an interesting opener all the same. The very well-bred TORITO shaped encouragingly when third on his debut at Newbury last autumn and is selected to make the most of the weight he receives from previous winner Exoplanet.

There were plenty of positives to take from TORITO's debut defeat at Newbury and a Derby entry bodes well. Exoplanet is feared.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Soft ground wouldn't have suited SHETLAND BUS at Wetherby last month, having been off the track for 168 days. He remains well treated on his peak hurdles form and it would be no surprise to see an improved performance with forecast conditions set to be in his favour. Recent Plumpton scorer Tommie Beau can mount another serious challenge, along with Lounge Lizard, who bolted up at Catterick last time out.

KAYF HERNANDO's novice handicap form at the end of 2022 looks solid and he gets the nod to make a successful return from a break for the Skeltons. Lounge Lizard had the form of his latest Catterick win boosted when the second scored at Market Rasen on Sunday and he's feared most ahead of the reliable Tommie Beau.

The pick is ARIZONA CARDINAL, who began his chasing career with a win in the autumn and will find this easier than his latest race.

14:10 Catterick Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Freedom Flyer made a big impression when scoring by two and a half lengths over this trip at Thirsk last week, but he is also declared to run at Wolverhampton on Tuesday evening, so preference lies with the Ruth Carr-trained SPANISH ANGEL. A comfortable winner over this trip at Wolverhampton last month, he races off a 5lb lower mark on his return to turf and can have a big say in proceedings here. Captain Corcoran and Hot Scoop are others of interest.

Ruth Carr holds a strong hand here with FREEDOM FLYER and Spanish Angel of particular interest. Both arrive on the back of recent wins, and while the latter has a very handy turf mark to exploit, the former is just preferred given the ease of his success at Thirsk. Isle of Dreams is a threat if fully wound up for this.

Soft-ground C&D winner CAPTAIN CORCORAN was a promising fourth on his recent reappearance at Thirsk and earns the vote.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Latin Verse appeared to improve for the step up in trip when winning over 1m4f at Lingfield in February and there may be some value in taking on the son of Postponed now returned this distance. MUDSKIPPER shaped as if 1m was on the sharp side for him last season and this first attempt over 1m2f could unlock the improvement needed for a first success for David Menuisier's colt. Bohemian Breeze is another who could improve for this stiffer test and he also warrants consideration.

DAWN VEGA shapes like this sort of trip will suit him and he's worth chancing to open his account at the possible expense of Latin Verse, a comfortable maiden winner last time. Mudskipper is another one to consider.

A typically trappy 3yo handicap at this early stage of the season. LATIN VERSE does at least have the benefit of a recent run.

14:30 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

THELASTHIGHKING was suited by a drop in trip when winning over an extended 1m7f at Wincanton last month and Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge could have what it takes to deal with a subsequent 8lb rise in the handicap. Quid Pro Quo has yet to complete in two starts over fences and has plenty to prove, so Chepstow third In Excelsis Deo looks the one for forecast purposes.

THELASTHIGHKING readily surpassed his previous exploits over fences when running out a ready winner on his third chase start at Wincanton 16 days ago (passed the line with plenty left) and an 8 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid here. Since Day One may emerge as the chief threat.

After a taking success at Wincanton, THELASTHIGHKING looks the likeliest winner.

14:40 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

A fairly weak contest in which it could pay to side with SHINE'S AMBITION, who must hold every chance of building on a disappointing fourth at Southwell on his return to action last month. A switch back to turf may have a positive effect and he races off a 3lb lower mark today. South Dakota Sioux and Montelusa are others who warrant respect and they are worth a market check.

The betting should prove useful but SHINE'S AMBITION ought to be sharper for his comeback run at Southwell 5 weeks ago and, having been given a chance by the assessor, he could well make a bold bid returned to handicap-company. South Dakota Sioux, who ran well himself recently, is next best, ahead of Premier Option.

It may prove best to concentrate on the handicap newcomers GRANDAD BOB and Jamie Bond in that order of preference.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

FIX YOU reappeared in good form when collared close home over 6f at Kempton recently and, with this return to 5f and underfoot conditions to suit, she may been let in lightly off an opening mark of 77. Thankuappreciate doesn't have the benefit of a recent run, but Nigel Tinkler's charge may also have more to offer this season now entering handicaps and is feared most. Paddy's Day, Desperate Hero and Castan also have claims in a competitive-looking contest.

A case can be made for all of these but CASTAN ended last term on the up so gets the nod off a still handy-looking mark with the form of his Newcastle second having been franked. Recent Lingfield scorer Paddy's Day rates a big threat with handicap debutantes Fix You and Open Market much respected too.

The filly FIX YOU (nap) emerged as the best horse at the weights when narrowly denied on her AW reappearance. She'll love this ground.

15:00 Southwell NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Nicky Henderson has a terrific record in bumpers at this venue and MADAM RYDER could enhance that already impressive strike-rate. The daughter of Blue Bresil makes plenty of appeal on paper and Caoilin Quinn ought to further aid her chances with his handy 5lb claim. Sister Julienne is feared most, while Stuti and Anna Of Annandale are others to note.

FORTUNE FOREVER had excuses at Warwick last time and is taken to get off the mark at the fourth attempt. Sister Julienne looks the main danger on form, whilst Madam Ryder may be the pick of an interesting bunch of newcomers.

This is probably easier than the Newbury race in which STUTI finished fourth, and she has a very good pedigree for bumpers.

15:15 Catterick Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

This represents a drop in class for MISTER CAMACHO, who kept on well for third over 1m4f at Doncaster earlier this month. He retains the mark from that run and can get closer now up in trip, but Golden Keeper filled the runner-up spot at Wolverhampton on his latest outing last November and should not be taken lightly. Quercus Robur completes the shortlist.

MISTER CAMACHO remains a maiden but shaped well with a view to stepping back up in trip when third at Doncaster (11.9f) 10 days ago and he gets the narrow vote to come out on top with forecast ground conditions also holding no fears. Golden Keeper and Quercus Robur are a couple of others to consider.

The in-form QUERCUS ROBUR is taken to get back to winning ways by beating Master Camacho and Gift Of Raaj.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

TAJALLA won a decent-looking novice stakes at Newmarket on his only start as a juvenile and, given he won with authority that day, he is taken to cope with having to concede weight all round at this stage. Eternal Class impressed when she won a maiden at Thirsk on her racecourse bow and rates a big threat, if forgiven a modest effort on the all-weather when last seen. Fair Wind is also considered after posting a respectable third on debut over C&D last week.

TAJALLA has presumably had his share of issues to be off the track for a year but his debut win at Newmarket was very taking. He's in top hands so is taken to remain unbeaten, probably at the chief expense of Eternal Class and McCauley's Tavern.

Conditions won't concern McCAULEY'S TAVERN and he is preferred to Eternal Class.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

LITTLE MISS DANTE must hold every chance if building on a strong runner-up effort on debut at Huntingdon in January. James King's 3lb claim is another plus and she can see off the likes of Rogue Queen and Endless Supply, who is bound to improve on her first run under Rules at Chepstow. Bella Madonna and Blow The Budget are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

The clear pick is LITTLE MISS DANTE, who fetched £100,000 as a 3-y-o and made a promising start to her career when going close at Huntingdon. Unless one of the newcomers turn out to be pretty decent, she won't need to improve upon that form to go one better here. Braunton Burrows is the most appealing of the debutantes on paper and is preferred to Rogue Queen for forecast purposes.

As regards the runners who already have experience, LITTLE MISS DANTE has the best chance. All of the newcomers are attractively bred.

15:48 Catterick Stakes (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Divine Libra posted two sound efforts in defeat on the all-weather during his last campaign and Charlie Hills' inmate appears a leading contender on this seasonal debut. Nevertheless, the son of Dark Angel has yet to prove his effectiveness on the turf and THREE YORKSHIREMEN rates as a more solid proposition. The selection shaped better than the beaten distance suggested over 1m at York in October and he should appreciate this return to 7f. Any market support for newcomer Nine Six Five is also worth noting.

DIVINE LIBRA couldn't quite match his debut form when fourth in a Newcastle novice back in November but he was a shade keener than ideal and, back from a break, he could be up to getting off the mark now switched to turf. Three Yorkshiremen, who set a similar standard himself as a juvenile, is feared, with newcomer Nine Six Five well worthy of note also.

Back at novice level THREE YORKSHIREMEN holds strong claims on form. Divine Libra and Nine Six Five are feared most.

TRUESHAN and Hollie Doyle teamed up to good effect when winning this race last season and, given how well the rest of the campaign panned out for the partnership, they are hard to oppose in the bid for back-to-back successes. Last season's Gold Cup runner-up, Mojo Star, rates as the chief danger, although Buzz, who hasn't been seen since winning a Grade 2 over hurdles 508 days ago, has to be of interest on his return, considering he won the 2021 renewal of the Cesarewitch on his penultimate start.

MOJO STAR may only have a maiden success to his name but he has proven himself to be high class with a number of fine efforts in Group 1 company, not least when splitting Kyprios and Stradivarius in a thrilling finish to the Gold Cup at Royal Ascot on his sole appearance in 2022. He appears to be versatile ground-wise and is taken to lower the colours of last year's winner Trueshan in what promises to be a fascinating clash between these two top-notch performers. Tashkhan is best of the rest.

You can set your clock by TRUESHAN when he gets these conditions and Alan King's star should repeat last year's success.

Now that the penny has dropped for SUPERSTYLIN, after an easy win at Market Rasen last month, Sue Smith's charge can follow up off an 8lb higher mark. He gets the vote ahead of the likes of Groom De Cotte and Shelikesthelights, who was value for more than the winning margin at Doncaster and could be interesting off an opening handicap mark of 101.

SHELIKESTHELIGHTS was value for extra when getting off the mark over hurdles at Doncaster last time, heavily eased up close home, and she can follow up on her handicap debut. Superstylin also arrives on the back of a win and is feared most, ahead of Pride of Hawridge who can fare better back down in trip.

Today's drop back in trip looks the right move for PRIDE OF HAWRIDGE, who was placed over 2m on his handicap debut two starts ago.

Miss Calculation regained the winning thread when finding the underfoot conditions to her liking at Thirsk last Tuesday and John Quinn's filly isn't taken lightly now shouldering a 5lb penalty. The majority of her rivals are making their return to action and it may pay to take a chance on SPECIAL MAYSON, who finished fourth in last year's renewal of this contest. The five-year-old have may benefitted from some time off and boasts a C&D triumph to his name. Legal Reform and Beauty Choice are just two others to note in an open-looking event.

A competitive race of its type and it may pay to side with METABOLT. Best excused his final start last term, he'd previously caught the eye at Chester and his mark looks an exploitable one. Recent Thirsk winner Miss Calculation heads up the dangers along with Special Mayson and Motawaazy.

The lightly raced 4yo METABOLT has potential off his current mark and is preferred to Langholm, who has a good record here.

CLASS MEMBER makes both her handicap and turf debut in first-time cheekpieces following a fair fourth at Chelmsford over 7f last month. She is fairly well-related and must hold every chance off what appears a feasible opening mark of 71, but the Roger Varian-trained Bonkersinabundance was only narrowly denied on her sole turf run at Brighton last October and can give the selection plenty to think about. Anieres Girl completes the shortlist.

Preference is for EURYTHMICAL, who didn't get the breaks on handicap debut at Wolverhampton in December and is bred to appreciate this stiffer test of stamina. Class Member and Ravigill head the list of dangers.

Perhaps EURYTHMICAL can benefit from cheekpieces after running below expectations on her handicap debut.

16:35 Southwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Slight preference is for SOLDAT FORTE, who ran a cracker when narrowly denied at Worcester last September and this appeals as an ideal opportunity on his first outing over hurdles. Great Samourai improved from first to second start when runner-up at Warwick last month and he must enter calculations, along with Bugle Major, who is well capable on the Flat but has yet to put it together in this sphere.

GREAT SAMOURAI left his hurdling debut form behind in a first-time tongue strap when runner-up at Warwick 3 weeks ago and, with further improvement on the cards, he's selected to go one better. Soldat Forte showed promise in a brace of bumpers last summer and ought to be up to making his presence felt in a race like this over hurdles. Newcomer Tommouse makes appeal on paper and requires a market check, also.

This looks a very good opportunity for GREAT SAMOURAI, who left his disappointing rules debut a long way behind when second at Warwick.

Sugarpiehoneybunch got off the mark at the 18th time of asking when she swathed through with a late rattle over this trip at Thirsk eight days ago and is respected again, despite carrying a 5lb penalty. The versatile Lord Torranaga also enters calculations given that he is effective at this course and is on a handy mark. However, COCONUT BAY is unexposed on turf and she could have more to give now he's tried in a hood over a new trip.

With the Lucinda Russell team in very good form a chance is taken on handicap newcomer SCOTTISH WIND, with confidence in his chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Trailblazer could be a threat if a disappointing run at Newcastle last time can be put down to the absence of headgear (back on now). Last week's Thirsk winner Sugarpiehoneybunch should also be competitive under a penalty.

With conditions in his favour, the unexposed SCOTTISH WIND (nap) is taken to get off the mark. Glory And Honour is next best.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Only denied a double by half a length over a mile at Newcastle last month, ELEVEN ELEVEN can have another big say in proceedings on his turf debut here. He is now rated 8lb above his last winning all-weather mark, though, so the class-dropping Mabre should not be taken lightly and could also be thereabouts. Nine Elms is another who warrants a market check.

MABRE has enjoyed a productive period on the AW of late and would have finished closer with a clear run at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Equally effective on turf and with fitness on his side, he's the most persuasive option. Nine Elms and Eleven Eleven are feared most.

It might be worth chancing MORE DIAMONDS on her first run for James Ferguson and belatedly returning to genuine soft ground.

Gentleman Valley is still lightly raced over hurdles and could have a big impact in this company if he runs to the best of his ability. Hillfinch also warrants consideration in her bid to follow up last month's gutsy win at Huntingdon from just 3lb higher. However, ROCCO has been consistent since he reverted to timber just before Christmas and could be good value to exploit what looks to be lenient mark in comparison to his chase rating.

FREETHINKER hasn't looked back since the tongue strap went on and is fancied to complete a hat-trick with the form of his most recent Newcastle success having been franked. Kingsfort Hill is next on the list on the back of his recent C&D second, with eye-catching Bangor third Barony Legends and the handily-weighted Rocco two others who could have a say in an open handicap.

Dan Skelton's KINGSFORT HILL (nap) shaped very much as though his turn is near when a clear second over C&D last month.

RIVER USK showed ability in a couple of nurseries last autumn and looks an interesting proposition here. The son of Dandy Man resumes from the same mark as when he was a good third over 7f at Leicester last time out in October and, with the drop in trip likely to suit, he could take advantage from a handy draw. Tantalus has shown improvement on the all-weather and is feared most, while Silverlode could find more with first-time cheekpieces applied.

SHOT made a winning start for her new stable at Lingfield last time and Johnny Peate's claim amounts to more than the rise she's been handed, so she's worth a chance to follow up. Tantalus is in form and looks a danger, while River Usk can get involved if ready for this reappearance.

In a trappy race AURORA GLORY, who ran so well on her handicap debut, just gets the vote ahead of Thornaby Beauty.

In what could be a fast and furious five-furlong dash, it might pay to side with the David Loughnane-trained TOKYO DRIFT. The daughter of Showcasing is a half-sister to Star Of Lady M, who won her first two starts as a juvenile, and she should get a nice early position from stall three. Out Of The Stars makes plenty of appeal and she must be taken seriously for her in-form stable, while others to note include Rogue Dream and Ziggy's Phoenix.

A field of newcomers but Archie Watson has few peers when it comes to readying an early juvenile and OUT OF THE STARS should be fast if her pedigree is any guide. Amo Racing look to have a strong band of 2-y-os and Tokyo Drift is feared most.

The market should provide clues but at this stage the vote goes to OUT OF THE STARS ahead of Ziggy's Phoenix

Mole Court was the main beneficiary of a faller at the last when he won at Hereford in February but he is open to more improvement and is taken seriously. However, similar comments apply to CAN'T BEAT HISTORY, who only just failed to reward favourite backers when he was a close second over 2m3f at Doncaster last time. That was a notable improvement with the tongue-tie back on and he shades the nomination. Tedwin Hills and Miss Wachit complete the shortlist.

CAN'T BEAT HISTORY upped his game when runner-up in a handicap at Doncaster 49 days ago and, with more to come, he's fancied to go one better. Handicap-debutant Tedwin Hills is a danger and Mole Court deserves respect on the back of a victory at Hereford.

On the back of a solid maiden effort, TEDWIN HILLS could well make a successful handicap debut. Lough Carra is second choice.

Annie Law made a winning handicap debut over C&D in February and she merits the utmost respect with William Buick aboard, but a 7lb rise for that success would appear to be harsh. With that in mind, a chance is taken on ENBORNE. Andrew Balding's filly didn't show much in novice events but she's bred to be far better than an opening mark of 65 and it would be no surprise were she to take a step forward on her handicap bow. Topo Chico continues to run well in defeat and first-time cheekpieces could elicit further improvement.

ANNIE LAW saw off a trio of next-time winners when landing a C&D handicap in February and her revised mark probably underestimates her. Phoenix Glow and Topo Chico look the main threats.

With the form of her C&D success having substance, ANNIE LAW gets the vote. Enborne is second choice.

Jim Crowley was bullish regarding the prospects of YAANAAS in the aftermath of his debut success and the gelded son of Ulysses can follow up with further improvement highly likely. Quantico must carry a double penalty having won both of his starts, but he remains of significant interest. Orzo hasn't been seen since her 7f success in October 2021, but it's interesting that connections persist with this well-bred filly and any market support should be noted for her.

YAANAAS may not have made it to the track until this year, but the 4-y-o looked a good prospect when making a winning debut at Newcastle last month, scoring with plenty in hand having led on the bridle. He can follow up with improvement to come, though Quantico arrives having won both of his starts so isn't taken lightly. Timeless Melody completes the shortlist.

A fascinating race in which Roger Varian's recent debut winner YAANAAS gets the vote ahead of Quantico and Timeless Melody.

HIGH COURT JUDGE has been a revelation since joining the Henry Spiller stable and the hat-trick looks very much on the cards as he looks to supplement last month's success over C&D off 3lb lower. So Chic won well at Wolverhampton last time out and the step up in trip could eke out further improvement. Gold Aura and Kitaro Kich can also have a say in proceedings.

SO CHIC did well to get up from off the pace at Wolverhampton last time and still looks fairly treated after a 2 lb rise. Starlight Nation showed promise in his qualifying runs and can make his mark in handicaps so he's a possible danger. The hat-trick seeking High Court Judge completes the shortlist.

The vote goes to progressive gelding HIGH COURT JUDGE (nap), who made it 2-2 in handicaps with his win over C&D last month.

ARCTICIAN has been in terrific form of late and the step up in trip could unlock further improvement as Simon Dow's charge looks to bring up the hat-trick. His record around here bodes well and the five-year-old should have too much for Tollard Royal and Intercessor, who makes his seasonal return. Completing the shortlist are the likes of Darwell Lion, Fantasy Believer and Golden Sands.

TOLLARD ROYAL signed off 2022 with an excellent second at Beverley and he's already tasted success over C&D, so he takes marginal preference over Arctician, who scored at Lingfield a fortnight ago. Spinaround is another player on just his second outing for a shrewd stable.

It might be worth sticking with the resurgent ARCTICIAN, who has won from tough draws on Polytrack in his last two starts.

Runner-up on his last two outings, including once over C&D, WHERE'S TOM deserves a change in luck and he can get that on this occasion in a winnable contest. The hat-trick seeking Lednikov can give him the most to think about, ahead of Dynakite, who was a determined winner here over a shorter trip in January. Solanna and Trojan Truth cannot be ruled out either.

LEDNIKOV looked better than ever when landing a double at Southwell in December and, despite a 4-month break, he's worth a chance to complete the hat-trick on polytrack debut. Where's Tom looks a danger following a solid showing at Lingfield and Solanna always merits respect at this course.

5yo LEDNIKOV completed a double off only 1lb lower at Southwell in December and is a big player if he can pick up where he left off.

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.
