1st (6) Yakhabar (7/1 +22%)
Yakhabar

7/1(+22%)
(6) Yakhabar 7/1, C&D winner in February. 5/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at this C&D 21 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces back on and he's opposable on balance.
Off the mark at the 13th attempt over C&D in February, but not matched that form since.

Gastronomy

11/4(+21%)
(1) Gastronomy 11/4, 5/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable fifth of 12 in handicap at this C&D when last seen in November. Down another 1 lb and he's very much one to consider.
0-12 and something to prove back from five months off.

3rd (4) Spirit Of Ash (3/1 +14%)
Spirit Of Ash

3/1(+14%)
(4) Spirit Of Ash 3/1, Three-time C&D winner. Four wins from 18 runs last year. Didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at this C&D (7/1) 32 days ago. 2 lb nudge fair enough but this looks tougher.
Record over C&D reads 11241; likes to come late off a solid pace but that isn't guaranteed.

Tafsir

(2) Tafsir 12/1, Three wins from 17 runs last year. Bit below form fourth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 6/1) on latest start 138 days ago. 0-8 on AW and she looks vulnerable.
In the frame in five of her seven visits here; 138-day absence the unknown; watch market.

(7) Tiberio Force 15/2, Fourteen runs since last win in 2022. Fourth of 7 in minor event (6/4) at this course (10.2f) 17 days ago. Back up in trip and he's not without an each-way chance.

Starfighter

(3) Starfighter 9/1, Course winner. 28/1, creditable third of 13 in handicap at Kempton (12f) 26 days ago. Reproduction of that would put him firmly in the picture here.
A player on form, but far from sure to get the solid pace he needs.

13:50 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Spirit Of Ash sets the standard based on her C&D victory a month ago but marginal preference is for STARFIGHTER. The eight-year-old was third off this mark in a similar event at Kempton last time and that form gives him a big chance here. Desert Quest should not be underestimated and he edges out Yakhabar to be best of the rest.

GASTRONOMY has slipped to an attractive mark and shaped as though working his way back to form when fifth over this C&D on his latest appearance in November. If able to build on that back from a break, he could be the answer. Starfighter didn't do much wrong at Kempton last time and is second choice ahead of Tiberio Force.

It may be worth chancing TIBERIO FORCE who is on a fair mark on last autumn's form and should be all the better for his recent return.

14:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

LUNA MAGIC (fourth) may have three lengths to make up with My Brother Mike (first) from their most recent clash at Southwell, but Archie Watson's charge is now 6lb better off and she has scored over C&D previously. A staying on second over 7f at Kempton last month, Swiss Pride may well improve for the step up in trip, while the unexposed Daffin is another to note on just her second start in a handicap.

MY BROTHER MIKE bounced back to winning ways under an assured ride from Adam O'Shea at Southwell last month and can go well again under the amateur. Sea of Charm and Luna Magic are a couple of the other likely players.

Rabinal is more appealing than many but perhaps VERONA STAR can come out on top in a trappy event.

Midnight Lion

15/2(+53%)
(4) Midnight Lion 15/2, One win from 3 runs last year. Fifth of 6 in handicap at this course (16.2f, 12/1) 16 days ago. Significantly back down in trip and while he would have a serious chance off this reduced mark if able to get back on track, others make more appeal.

(12) Scarriff 150/1, 22/1, first run since leaving John Joseph Murphy when last of 11 in minor event at Southwell (8.1f) 13 days ago, lost all chance at start. Up in trip. Readily passed over.

Sole win came over 1m here; 7f here last time was inadequate; effective at this trip.

(6) Indication Rocket 11/1, Course winner. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap (17/2) at this course (12.4f) when last seen 6 months ago. Remains 3 lb above winning mark here last spring and looks vulnerable.
Front-running course winner; form can be mixed, but capable of bold bid if fully tuned up.

14:20 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

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

BUSBY has made the frame on both starts so far this year and that includes a narrow second over C&D a couple of weeks ago. The veteran could provide his supporters with some compensation here, despite a 2lb rise in the ratings. We Still Believe is an obvious threat having also hit the crossbar over this track and trip last time, while Dougies Dream completes the shortlist.

The vote goes to DOUGIES DREAM, who posted his best effort for a while when third over a mile here three weeks ago and he may well exploit this reduced mark now stepping back up in trip. We Still Believe was fit from hurdles when a good second over this C&D and he has to be feared, while Moush will be a player if fully tuned-up and Bulls Aye is also capable of a bold show.

A chance is taken on the 10yo MR COCO BEAN, who was a promising and unlucky fifth over C&D recently.

14:30 Lingfield Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

CYNOSURE improved with each start as a two-year-old and a gelding operation may bring about the improvement which is needed to get off the mark. A promising runner-up on his last start over C&D, Andrew Balding's charge may have too much for Wolverhampton scorer Winterfair, who has a 7lb penalty to shoulder for that narrow success. Devoirs Choice and Operate are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

CYNOSURE sets a good standard and might be able to make a successful return at the expense of Wolverhampton-winner Winterfair, who needs to improve under a penalty. Operate is respected also.

Winterfair and CYNOSURE look the two to focus on with the latter setting a clear standard. His stable's form is an added bonus.

14:38 Wincanton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 15f Race Class Flow

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

This looks to be a good opportunity for NAVAJO INDY to return to the winner's enclosure. Tom Symonds' charge has placed form behind some useful rivals this season and, after being turned over at short odds over 2m3f at Fontwell on his most recent start, he should be tough to stop back over this more suitable distance in maiden company. Point-to-point winner Northern Air finished down the field in a Newbury bumper on her Rules debut last month, but she is open to any amount of improvement and commands attention. The Northernlights arrives on the back of a respectable third over 2m at Warwick and he completes the shortlist.

The fact NORTHERN AIR made her Rules debut in a Newbury bumper suggests her connections must hold her in quite high regard and, although she ran to only a modest level, a lot better can be expected on this switch to hurdling. Standard setter Navajo Indy is an obvious threat, while The Northernlights makes most appeal of the remainder.

The 5yo NAVAJO INDY would appear to be in pole position on form despite coming up short last time when odds-on.

(4) Toshizou 18/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. Ninth of 10 in handicap (15/2) at Doncaster (10.2f, soft) 15 days ago. Makes tapeta debut and would be a danger to all off this reduced mark if bouncing back to his best.

14:50 Newcastle Handicap (Class 4) 10f Race Class Flow

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

The well-bred AEROSPACE showed plenty of promise for previous connections and he won impressively on his debut for Archie Watson at Wolverhampton last month. Given that effort followed a 690-day break, the five-year-old merits the utmost respect on his handicap bow here. Toshizou is on a workable mark if leaving his Doncaster effort last time well behind, while Westernesse is another with claims.

AEROSPACE clearly hasn't been the easiest to train but the 16,000 gns new connections paid for him looks like money well spent judged on his impressive comeback success in a Wolverhampton novice. Given that he was returning from almost two years off, the 5-y-o is entitled to come on for that and he may well find the necessary improvement to follow up on this handicap debut. Westernesse shaped well on his reappearance over C&D a fortnight ago and he is the clear main danger ahead of Toshizou.

The choice is AEROSPACE (nap) who was so impressive when making a successful return from a mammoth absence at Wolverhampton last month.

15:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Favourite when third on his handicap debut at Wolverhampton last time out, ELFORLEATHER looked likely to play a big role when meeting with trouble in running at a crucial stage and compensation may await. Runner-up on two of his last three stars, including once here, Something To Do could be thereabouts once more, along with Jailbird for the in-form George Scott stable.

JAILBIRD is one of the least exposed and shaped as if worth a crack at this sort of trip when fourth over 10f here 17 days ago, so she could be the way to go with her yard amongst the winners. Elforleather is another of the least exposed and along with Something To Do, heads up the dangers.

This looks good for ELFORLEATHER (nap) who bumped into two rivals who are much better than Class 6 level at Wolverhampton last week.

15:08 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

In a trappy-looking affair, FIREFLY LANE gets the tentative vote to come home in front. Jimmy Frost's charge finished an admirable second over an extended 2m5f at Taunton most recently and, nudged up just 3lb and dropping slightly in trip, she can go one place better today. Committee Of One scored in determined fashion over an extended 2m3f at Ffos Las last month but a 7lb penalty demands more from her, while Grasse D'oliverie represents an in-form stable and cannot be dismissed.

FASHION'S MODEL ran too badly to be true in the mud at Ffos Las recently, a race won by the re-opposing Committee of One, and she's worth another chance off a tempting mark. Grasse d'Oliverie is very well handicapped and came good last spring.

There was talk of retirement for COMMITTEE OF ONE after last week's win but she's out again under a penalty and can follow up.

15:20 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Stallone has found a new lease of life since being paired with William Pile and, given the C&D winner is 2-5 under the 5lb claimer, another big run is likely, while Global Humor is dangerously well handicapped and the in-form Hollie Doyle is an eye-catching jockey booking. However, from a handy draw, RAINBOW RAIN looks worth chancing. Tracy Waggot's five-year-old likes to be on the front end and, assuming he can make this a good test, this return to the minimum trip could be a profitable move.

Though he was nearer last than first over C&D on his reappearance, BELSITO nevertheless caught the eye under a sympathetic ride on his first outing for eight months. He will be sharper now and is appealing eased into a 0-65 handicap for the first time. Rainbow Rain will be a threat if ready to roll following a break and he is second choice ahead of Whisky McGonagall.

Having enjoyed a productive campaign last season, featuring three wins (one here), RAINBOW RAIN is taken to make a winning return.

15:30 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

MART bumped into a progressive filly when he filled the runner-up spot on his return from a short break here last month. However, the manner in which he rattled home that day suggests he could be tough to beat off the same mark, especially as he receives weight all round. Torvar (10th) has plenty to find on the face value of that race, so it might be down to Western and Piz Nair to serve it up to the selection, with the former just preferred given his previous all-weather experience.

A 3-time winner on all-weather during the second half of last year MART arrives having run well when second over C&D 10 days ago, that despite not being seen to best effect, and he looks sure to go well again. Western and Piz Nair both start their 3-y-o campaigns having been gelded and could well emerge as the main dangers.

Mart should give it another good go, but WESTERN shaped well on occasions last year and can make a winning reappearance.

15:38 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

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

ROYAL MER looked every inch a chaser to keep on the right side of when scoring again over 1m7f at Wetherby most recently, bounding clear after the last to win comfortably, and off a 9lb higher mark, he can bring up the hat-trick for the in-form David Pipe team. Mount Tempest showed progressive form in the winter and even though that improvement seems to have plateaued somewhat, he is only 4lb above his last winning mark and warrants respect for title-chasing Dan Skelton. The class-dropping Gustavian has the ability to get involved in a race of this nature, but the ease in trip is a concern.

ROYAL MER has enjoyed a terrific first season over the larger obstacles and David Pipe's 6-y-o is fancied to add victory number 5 to his tally at the expense of Force de Frap, who was unlucky to bump into one even more progressive than himself at Stratford 4 weeks ago and should be bang there again. Mount Tempest can edge out Gustavian for third spot.

The downgraded GUSTAVIAN could be interesting under a positive ride over 2m. He can see off the progressive Royal Mer.

15:50 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

A close second to an all-out Patronage over this course and distance last month, LOUBIERE is an attractive proposition despite being nudged up 1lb for that near-miss. Still unexposed at the trip, the Rebecca Menzies-trained filly got better the further she went that day and, with the memory of that improved effort still fresh, this has come around at the right time. Patronage might struggle to uphold the form on 1lb worse terms, so the less-exposed Northern Cracksman may be more of a threat.

LOUBIERE likely would have overhauled Patronage here last month had she got the gaps sooner and is taken to turn the tables on Nigel Tinkler's charge. Brian Ellison won this race 12 months ago and his Northern Cracksman is another who should go well. Ed Bethell's new recruit Wonderful Lives would also need considering should the betting speak in his favour on handicap debut.

A chance is taken with REDONDO whose two efforts over C&D in February would give him every chance in this company.

16:00 Lingfield Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Amo Racing introduce an appealing newcomer in the form of TARGET MAN, who cost 325,000gns as yearling and is clearly the most striking of this bunch. The son of Earthlight is likely to get further in time but, given his dam is a half-sister to Gimcrack winner Lake Forest, there is good reason to expect him to cope with a speed test. Kuwaitya showed some promise on debut but fellow debutant Subsonictoshannon won't need to be out of the ordinary to fill the forecast slot.

George Boughey's TARGET MAN appeals on pedigree so is fancied to go in at the first time of asking at the chief expense of Kuwaitya who rates a major threat on the back of her debut Newcastle second. Subsonictoshannon is another debutante who commands respect in a novice where the market will prove highly informative.

Kuwaitya is high on the list but the eye is drawn to the 325,000gns yearling TARGET MAN and he can make a winning debut.

16:08 Wincanton Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

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

MONVIEL looked a rejuvenated character at Uttoxeter when narrowly denied close home over this trip and he appears to hold every chance now off 3lb higher for his in-form connections. A taking winner of both starts since joining Paul Nicholls from the point-to-point scene, Toss Of A Coin must enter calculations on his handicap debut, while Home Free has to be considered closely as well.

A few with chances but Dan Skelton's lightly-raced HOME FREE looks to have been let in lightly for his first venture into handicap company so he gets the vote. In-form pair Toss of A Coin and Monviel are both highly respected too.

It was a very winnable maiden that HOME FREE (nap) won at Lingfield but there's good reason to believe he might be well in here.

16:20 Newcastle Maiden (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

William Haggas always commands respect with his runners at this venue but it is rare for him to introduce a filly of the potential held by ADMIRED HOPE anywhere on the all-weather. A 425,000gns purchase, the selection is a half-sister to the Group 1 winner Garswood, among other high-class relatives within the pedigree, and with options on turf possibly limited by the weather, this looks an ideal starting point for the daughter of Galileo. Gunlock and Midnite Storm appeal most from those with previous experience.

Garswood's half-sister ADMIRED HOPE makes obvious paper appeal and can make a winning start for William Haggas, with confidence in her chance increased should the betting vibes be strong. Midnite Storm and Zain Blue went close in similar company at 2 and should be on the premises if fully primed after 6 months off, while Gunlock is open to progress on the back of last month's C&D debut second.

It makes sense to trust those with experience and both ZAIN BLUE and Midnite Storm ran to a useful level last season.

16:30 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

WEDGEWOOD has performed with more credit than the bare form suggests on her last two outings, showing up well for a long way before weakening close home both times. She may be able to slingshot off the final bend to make all on her Lingfield debut. Perfect Symphony kept on well when finishing third over 5f at Chelmsford recently and he can emerge as the main danger, while Suanni is back down to his last winning mark and warrants respect.

VICTORS DREAM was placed twice at this C&D last year and, having not been seen to best effect here on his latest outing, he is taken to open his account this time around. He can get the better of Wedgewood, who is respected as she drops back down in grade, with Suanni also capable of getting involved.

The frustrating Victors Dream should be involved but WEDGEWOOD's recent efforts have strongly hinted she is ready to strike.

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

Now that the penny has dropped for ROBBER'S BRIDGE with a comfortable success here last time out, the son of Frammassone may well improve for going back up in trip and a 6lb rise looks manageable. Only worn down late on over slightly shorter at Hereford in her bid for the double last month, Only Fools is capable of being in the shake-up, along with Moytier, who was a winner over fences here on his penultimate outing.

David Pipe has his team in good nick and ONLY FOOLS might be able to land a third success of the season. Robinsville made a sound return from wind surgery at Taunton 4 weeks ago and is second choice ahead of Libor Lad.

The suggestion is ROBBER'S BRIDGE whose last two races have worked out well and he still looks on a workable mark.

16:50 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Narrowly denied over C&D in February and last seen staying on for second over 6f here, MARIE'S JEWEL remains largely unexposed after eight career outings and this looks like an ideal opportunity for him to get off the mark. Odd Socks Havana has shaped well over further here on a few occasions and dropping in trip may suit the son of Havana Gold. The consistent Secret Daay and Southwell runner-up Coconut Bay are entitled to be thereabouts as well.

MARIE'S JEWEL is less exposed than most at this level and might prove the answer to the first division of this 7f handicap having been runner-up here twice in recent months. Odd Socks Havana, Northbound and Captain Vallo are feared most in that order.

The lightly raced 4yo MARIE'S JEWEL has been runner-up here on two of his last three starts and this could be a good opportunity.

17:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

CIARA PEARL won going away over a mile here on her penultimate start, prior to staying on well into second over the same trip at Newcastle in October. Over this extra yardage on her handicap debut, she can show her rivals the way home. Belleplaine made a pleasing start for this stable when a never-nearer second over a mile at Southwell last month, and she can give the selection most to think about off a 2lb higher mark. Better can be expected from Dynamiste, who endured a luckless passage when finishing down the field on her handicap debut over C&D in February.

CIARA PEARL made a promising start to her career last year, getting off the mark at this course before only narrowly denied at Newcastle, and she can make a winning return with the step up in trip likely to suit on her handicap bow. Belleplaine improved when runner-up on her stable/handicap debut last time and is feared most, ahead of Meleri.

Shalfa can go well but CIARA PEARL makes her handicap debut at a realistic level and today's trip could spark further progress.

17:08 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 25f Race Class Flow

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

SUPERVISOR (fourth) may have disappointed when finishing five lengths behind the reopposing First Lord De Cuet (third) at Newbury last month, but he was an easy winner at Ludlow in February and the relatively unexposed 10-year-old looks capable of bouncing back. Champagne Court ran his best race for some time when an encouraging second over shorter at Stratford last month, while Copperhead was a good third over C&D in February but is winless since February 2020.

It's easy enough to forgive SUPERVISOR for his reverse at Newbury all things considered and, back on what is likely to be deep ground here, the lightly-raced 10-y-o is the most appealing option in a trappy-looking affair. Champagne Court proved that he retains plenty of ability at Stratford last month and is next on the list ahead of First Lord de Cuet, who was a place ahead of Supervisor at Newbury but he doesn't always find much under pressure and is 0-13 in this sphere.

Nobody would begrudge Copperhead a belated return to the winners' enclosure, but FIRST LORD DE CUET edges preference.

17:20 Newcastle Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

A tentative vote goes to DANDYS GOLD, who has been running with plenty of credit here over a variety of trips and may be ideally suited by 7f on this occasion. The 10-year-old has dropped to a mark 4lb below her last success and that may be enough to see off previous C&D winner Crocodile Power. Sydney Bay shaped encouragingly on his return from wind surgery last month and should also have a big say.

SYDNEY BAY is starting to look well treated, particularly if William Pyle's 5 lb claim is taken into account, so might be worth chancing in this finale. Amaysmont and Crocodile Power are next on the list.

It could pay to chance the stamina of SYDNEY BAY, who kept on nicely over 6f here latest. Crocodile Power may be the main danger.

17:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

From a handy draw and, with last month's course and distance success being well advertised by three subsequent winners, BLUE COLLAR LAD is hard to ignore despite being on a 7lb higher mark. The consistent Mumcat may be the one to give the selection the most to think about, although Coast is 2lb below her last winning mark and, as a likely pace angle, can also go well with Luke Morris back in the saddle.

BLUE COLLAR LAD beat a couple of next-time-out winners when landing a gamble over C&D 5 weeks ago and can defy a 7 lb rise. All In The Hips and Mumcat are feared.

This can go to BLUE COLLAR LAD, who won by 3l off a reduced mark over C&D last month and remains well treated on his best form.

18:00 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Majestic Heights and Far Above Mary are the only ones with previous experience and, while neither sets the bar very high, both are entitled to be wiser and can make their presence felt. However, this can go to one of the newcomers, with the vote going to HASHTAGNOTIONS, who is a half-brother to the Listed-winning juvenile Shumookhi. Cheerleader and Ashen Glow are others to monitor in the betting.

As ever the betting will be revealing and this could be a good novice for the grade, newcomers ASHEN GLOW, Cheerleader and Sir Geoff Morgan the three against the field before market clues.

This looks tricky but the vote goes to FAR ABOVE MARY who shaped with promise at Southwell and should improve for that experience.

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 14f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to see beyond the hat-trick seeking TAMARIS, who has been found a good opportunity to extend his winning run. Having scored with plenty in hand on his debut for the James Owen yard over an extended 2m here last week, the selection has little to fear stepping back down in trip and must be considered under just a 4lb penalty. Lawmans Blis is up 4lb after his C&D success and commands respect, while the well-handicapped Zillion is dangerous to ignore.

TAMARIS won with a bit to spare over the extended 2m here last week and can make it 2-2 for James Owen. Jack Jones has an interesting pair in Kitty Foyle and Chagall and they are respected.

This can go to the hat-trick seeking TAMARIS, who had plenty in hand here last week and looks well treated under a penalty.

Made all last time (1m2f, AW); this half-brother to Golden Horn could continue to improve.

Improved again when winning 7-runner novice at Chelmsford (10f, 4/7) 78 days ago, making all with plenty in hand. That is good form (second and third promising) and more to come up in trip from this Oaks entry.
Oaks entry who easily made all at Chelmsford last time and could continue to progress.

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 3) 12f Race Class Flow

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

PER CONTRA struggled in Group 3 company on his final start as a juvenile but his previous form suggests that he could be hard to beat on his handicap bow off a mark of 88. The progressive Dunstan has to be of interest having won four times this year already, although this will require further improvement. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but Ville Natale is just the pick of them.

A good 3-y-o handicap with VILLE NATALE the obvious first port of call. She's in the Oaks and looks well treated for her handicap debut up in trip, with the form of her Chelmsford win working out. Al Mootamarid, a half-brother to Golden Horn, and Per Contra are dangerous.

Oaks entry VILLE NATALE easily made all in a 1m2f novice at Chelmsford in January and is open to further improvement now up in trip.

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

NEW IMAGE won well on his debut for these connections over 5f at Southwell last month and the son of Frankel merits the utmost respect on his handicap bow here. The hat-trick seeking Laoisman is another with strong form claims, although the 195-day break has to be a slight concern. Others who make the shortlist are Bora Bora, Habooba and Seven Brothers.

None of these can be ruled out but NEW IMAGE emphatically landed a Southwell maiden last time out and looks to have got in lightly for his handicap bow. Habooba rates the main threat to David O'Meara's son of Frankel with multiple C&D scorer Beauzon, Bora Bora and Seven Brothers all in the mix too.

The vote goes to the unexposed 4yo NEW IMAGE, who won at Southwell on his comeback and looks on a fair mark for this handicap debut.

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 4) 9f Race Class Flow

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

DAWN OF LIBERATION has performed with credit in defeat on both of his starts for this yard, most recently finding 7f too sharp at Southwell last time and, stepping up in trip and eased 1lb, he has strong claims in a race of this nature. Akkadian Thunder won cosily on his penultimate start and he has standout claims on that form, but punters will need to be in a forgiving mood to side with him after his laboured effort at Newcastle when last seen. Borgi should find this company more manageable than when finishing down the field in a higher grade at Lingfield most recently, but he won over 1m at Southwell the time before and he is respected today off a 2lb higher mark.

KING OF YORK didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fourth at Southwell last time and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark here. C&D winner Master of Combat heads the list of dangers, although handicap debutant Akkadian Thunder is not taken lightly either in a competitive handicap.

Top of the list is BORGI (nap), who is 4-6 on Tapeta and is only 2lb higher than when scoring at Southwell on his penultimate run.

20:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

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

ABSOLUTE DREAM had cheekpieces back on when scoring over 7f at Southwell on his penultimate start, and he proved that effort was no flash in the pan when finishing second over 6f at Newcastle most recently. Stepping back up in trip off just 2lb higher than his last winning mark, Richard Fahey's charge looks the one to side with. A Pint Of Bear fared best of those ridden patiently when finishing a creditable second over C&D recently and he is feared most off an unchanged mark. Captain Wentworth also commands attention, provided the application of cheekpieces has the desired effect.

C&D winner MUDLAHHIM has slipped back down the weights and signalled he is ready to go in again when a recent C&D fourth so edges the vote in this tight-knit handicap. Richard Fahey's Absolute Dream is another weighted to have a big say and next on the list ahead of recent C&D scorer Port Noir. Oriental Spirit completes the shortlist.

Plenty have possibilities but ABSOLUTE DREAM gets the vote ahead of Captain Wentworth, A Pint Of Bear and Mudlahhim.

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.
