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

1st - 0.83/1 (4) UP FOR APPEAL 2nd - 3.33/1 (8) WONDERWEASLE 3rd - 3.5/1 (1) ANGEL'S DREAM

Local trainer Gary Moore does well here and having won three of the last seven runnings of this race, he might add another success with ANGEL'S DREAM. He won in France but has yet to live up to expectations over here after coming home a distant third at Newbury and Huntingdon. This tight track may play to his strengths and he can hopefully prove too good for Newbury second Up For Appeal and Market Rasen third Wonderweasle.

Not a strong maiden hurdle so it looks a good chance for UP FOR APPEAL to go one place better having made a promising start to his hurdles career at Newbury. Wonderweasle is the obvious threat, though Angel's Dream is capable of better.

The return to a sound surface should help DEFINITE make the necessary improvement.

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

1st - 1.5/1 (4) MORNING SOLDIER 2nd - 3/1 (6) SHAJAK 3rd - 33/1 (5) RUSHFORD

MORNING SOLDIER's runner-up berth at Naas reads well and he should appreciate this better ground as a former winner on the Flat in Dundalk. He was beaten a length into second at Naas and had the subsequent Boodles winner at the Cheltenham Festival behind him in fourth. Shajak reached a peak mark of 95 on the Flat and is interesting on hurdle debut for Gordon Elliott. Flamborough is back to the trip he finished a close second over at Down Royal, so has to enter the equation. Custom Of The Sea and Boher Road are hurdling newcomers to note in the market. First-reserve Jit Langy would likely have a major say if getting a run. Willie Mullins' French import was second in a hurdle race in September in his native country.

The form of the juvenile event in which MORNING SOLDIER was second at Naas in February is very solid (Jazzy Matty and Byker, fourth and third respectively in the same race, went on to fill the first two places in the Fred Winter at the Cheltenham Festival) and he is presented with a good opportunity to open his hurdles account. This sharp track will suit Thomas Mullins' charge, who may have most to fear from Shajak, an interesting recruit from the Flat. Baltic Bird is also shortlisted.

After suffering an alarming loss of form on the Flat MORNING SOLDIER has taken to hurdling well enough to suggest he can win here

14:05 Ludlow Handicap Chase (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well as each has their strengths and weaknesses. However, if I had to choose, I would go with 0.73/1 (3) JEFFERY'S CROSS as they have recently won a valuable series final and have shown improvement in their last race. My prediction for the top three would be: 1) 0.73/1 (3) JEFFERY'S CROSS, 2) 2.5/1 (1) SHEARER, and 3) 4/1 (2) SILVER SHEEN.

With just the three runners heading to post, marginal preference is for the class-dropping JEFFERY'S CROSS. An emphatic winner over an extended 3m1f at Haydock last month, an 8lb raised mark looks unlikely to stop the gelded son of Flemensfirth securing a double, but Shearer has proven to be capable of better than his most recent efforts suggest and he can bounce back. Silver Sheen looks booked for third.

JEFFERY'S CROSS seems to be really getting the hang of things over fences and an 8 lb rise for his emphatic Haydock success doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from following up. Silver Sheen, who has started life well with Fergal O'Brien, resumes after a wind op and appeals as the one to chase home Dan Skelton's improver.

Dan Skelton's JEFFERY'S CROSS collected a good prize at Haydock last month and might well have more improvement to come.

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

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well. However, some horses that could potentially finish in the top three are 16/1 (4) MONTY'S AWARD, 7/1 (3) HELLO SUNSHINE, and 14/1 (5) BARROWMOUNT.

Lawtop Legend won a division of this race off a mark 3lb lower in 2021 and although pulled up on his last two starts, they were over fences and he returns to hurdles here. Hatchet Jack was second at Fontwell last month and is another to consider, but SANDALWOOD may be able to successfully give weight away all round. Disqualified for interference after 'winning' at Taunton, connections will be looking for recompense here and, with first-time blinkers applied, they could succeed.

SANDALWOOD took a big step forward when landing a Taunton handicap last month only to lose the race in the stewards' room but he can gain compensation here with blinkers now replacing cheekpieces. Hello Sunshine got back on track on his first run for George Baker with a recent third here and is next on the list now stepping up in trip. Exeter third Barrowmount and handicap debutant Strictlyasoldier complete the shortlist.

The 12yo PERFECT MAN ran well enough at Southwell to suggest he could be the answer.

Prediction: 1st - 1.75/1 (10) IDEAL DE CIERGUES, 2nd - 6/1 (11) MAKE THE PLAN, 3rd - 8/1 (15) VALLEYOFTHEEAGLES.

This looks to be a drop in class for IDEAL DE CIERGUES and he can take advantage of it. Gordon Elliott's charge finished third in Thurles and fourth at Naas in maiden hurdles won by subsequent Grade 1 winners, which has to give him leading claims here. Nene River makes his track debut for shrewd connections and has to be given a market check. He was a smooth winner of a British point-to-point in March. Caradoc held a three-figure rating on the Flat in Britain and was last seen finishing fourth in the Cambridgeshire at Newmarket in September. He could be a useful recruit for Eric McNamara. Valleyoftheeagles showed improvement in fourth at Kilbeggan and was well supported. The form of that race has been well franked. Chiefs Kingdom and Make The Plan have a shot at prize money.

It will look significant if there's confidence behind the Emmet Mullins-trained NENE RIVER in the betting. The 5-y-o was a clear-cut winner of his sole completed start between the flags and this half-brother to the useful Omar Maretti will be of strong interest if the market vibes are indeed upbeat. Ideal de Ciergues has made the frame in maiden hurdles won by subsequent Grade 1 winners Il Etait Temps and Impaire Et Passe, and he is an obvious threat. Valleyoftheeagles is third choice.

On the basis of respectable form in maidens won by subsequent Grade 1 winners, IDEAL DE CIERGUES looks capable of opening his account

Based on the summary provided, here are the predicted finishes for the horses: 1st: 1.38/1 (5) GUY 2nd: 2/1 (1) SOLDAT FORTE 3rd: Tongue tie

Better known for his exploits over the larger obstacles, GUY has shown his ability to cope with the switch to hurdles recently. Nigel Twiston-Davies' charge attempted to make the most of his stamina when finding one too strong over C&D last month, and he may be able to go one better courtesy of a similar display. Great Heart'Jac appeals as the main danger, with first-time cheekpieces a potential source of improvement. Soldat Forte won on his hurdles debut at Southwell 32 days ago and must be respected too.

SOLDAT FORTE displayed a willing attitude when making a successful hurdles debut at Southwell a month ago and while conceding weight to the likes of Guy and Great Heart'jac asks more of him, he may well be up to the task.

Useful chaser GUY (nap) ran well in two novice hurdles here last month and gets the vote ahead of Soldat Forte.

Prediction: 2.5/1 (3) ALTO ALTO will do well in this race. The horses that will finish in 1st, 2nd and 3rd places respectively are 2.5/1 (3) ALTO ALTO, 5/1 (5) NOT ANOTHER MUDDLE and 5/1 (2) PADDY'S POEM.

ALTO ALTO is 7lb worse off with Not Another Muddle on their meeting here over shorter last month, but he did win going away at the finish and may have even more to offer after just the three starts over fences. Trevada makes his debut over fences and is bred for the part so he could go well for a stable in form, leaving Warwick third Small Bad Bob as an alternative for the places.

This can go the way of PADDY'S POEM, who was unlucky to bump into a progressive sort at Exeter just over 3 weeks ago and can regain the winning thread. Alto Alto is put forward as the main threat having left previous chasing efforts behind when winning at this track last month, while Small Bad Bob and Not Another Muddle can fight out third spot.

After his course win last month, ALTO ALTO (nap) makes most appeal.

1st: 1.1/1 (2) PARTY CENTRAL 2nd: 7/1 (3) SHECOULDBEANYTHING 3rd: 2.5/1 (1) ANNA BUNINA

It was hard not to be impressed with Gordon Elliott's PARTY CENTRAL on her comeback run on the Flat at Gowran Park last month where she stayed on strongly to get up close home. She had been off for almost a year since landing a mares' novices' hurdle at Punchestown. She has an excellent record in this sphere with four victories from five appearances, including a Grade B handicap hurdle at Leopardstown. Anna Bunina holds the same rating of 142 as Party Central, so this should be a good race. She is a former Scottish Champion Hurdle winner and her last run in second at 28/1 in a Grade 1 at Punchestown entitles her to plenty of respect. She holds every chance. Elliott also saddles Shecouldbeanything and Media Naranja. The former has plenty to find on ratings with the aforementioned pair, but was very strong in winning in Listed class at Punchestown. The latter gets all the allowances and has more to offer.

PARTY CENTRAL hasn't been seen out in this sphere for over a year but her wellbeing is proven having returned with a winning debut on the Flat at Gowran last month. While that success was gained on heavy ground, she's fully effective on a faster surface (4-4 overall on good/yielding) and, open to further progress, she is taken to get the better of last year's winner of this, Anna Bunina. Night And Day was behind a couple of these last time but there were excuses that day and she is third choice.

Recent Flat winner PARTY CENTRAL is less exposed as a hurdler than the admirable Anna Bunina whom she faces on handicap terms

It looks best to side with IMPOSE TOI, who finished a good second to the smart Brentford Hope at Huntingdon last month. Having been sent off as favourite that day, better was clearly expected. Bizzy Moon landed a mares' maiden at Market Rasen 35 days ago and she's likely to take another step forward, while Chestnut Pete is fancied to claim third ahead of debutant One Rule.

This looks a very good opportunity for IMPOSE TOI to add to his Exeter win in March. Dan Skelton's Market Rasen scorer Bizzy Moon can follow him home.

This appears to offer IMPOSE TOI a good chance to record a second win over hurdles.

An emphatic winner over an extended 2m1f at Fontwell last month, Tara Iti looks sure to be in the mix off a 5lb higher mark, despite the drop in trip. However, he has lacked consistency of late, so EXECUTIVE POOL shades the vote. The gelded son of Churchill recorded a facile success over this trip at Hereford most recently and he could defy a 5lb rise to secure a double here. Glance At Me also looks capable of having a say in proceedings.

EXECUTIVE POOL had a bit in hand when winning at Hereford and has the scope for better still based on Flat form, so he's worth siding with ahead of his stablemate Tara Iti, who also arrives on the back of success at Fontwell. Glance At Me should also go well again.

Fontwell winner TARA ITI is taken to beat stable companion Executive Pool.

There could be plenty of pace on here which will suit MIGHTY TOM. This eight-year-old gelding switched to Cian Collins and ran an absolute stormer in third at 40/1 in a Grade B handicap hurdle at Punchestown. He was held up and travelled notably well into contention before his effort flattened out on the run-in. Considering that was his first run for almost a year, there should be improvement forthcoming. Magnor Glory showed plenty in fourth in a Grade A handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse in April. He has won three of his last six hurdle races and has to rate a threat. Kilbree Warrior was dominant off the front in a novice handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse. Doyen Ta Win is another prominent racer who has been in excellent form since the turn of the year. All Those Years reverts from fences and isn't out of it.

The vote goes to KILBREE WARRIOR, who out plenty of daylight between himself and his rivals when landing a big-field Fairyhouse handicap last month. If in a similar mood back down in trip here, a 10 lb rise may not be enough to stop him going in again. At the foot of the weights, Sacchoandvanzetti is of interest and may well have a part to play, while All Those Years is of interest back hurdling and the in-form Doyen Ta Win also needs considering.

If building on a Punchestown run which was his first outing for the stable and came after a year off, MIGHTY TOM could be hard to beat

Highland Frolic gained a breakthrough success in a maiden hurdle at Plumpton recently, but Milton Harris' gelding may prove worth taking on now returned to handicap company. GERARD MENTOR was impressive when romping home over C&D by 18 lengths on his penultimate start in November and he could take some stopping if freshened up by a winter break. A case can also be made for the in-form Force De Frap.

PATIENT DREAM has reacted well to cheekpieces and his latest effort is best ignored, so he's fancied to resume winning ways under a positive ride. Most of the others have a chance, with recent Plumpton winner Highland Frolic probably heading the dangers.

Last season's juvenile hurdle hurdle form is not entirely convincing but HIM MALAYA is open to significant improvement in handicaps.

Predictions are subjective and can vary based on factors like past performance, jockey, track conditions, etc. However, based on the given summary, the following horses are likely to perform well: 1st place: 1.88/1 (4) MOONSTONE BOY 2nd place: 1.5/1 (1) GOLDEN ARROW 3rd place: 5/1 (2) GOLDEN MIND

MOONSTONE BOY recently posted an improved effort when runner-up at Musselburgh and a reproduction of that performance now eased in class may suffice. Kandy House is the only other rival to have raced and is a potential improver, but newcomer Golden Mind, a half-brother to Group 1 winner Perfect Power, could prove the biggest threat. Richard Fahey's colt possesses plenty of speed in his pedigree and any support in the market would increase interest.

MOONSTONE BOY took a significant step forward from his debut when pulling well clear with a promising newcomer at Musselburgh a fortnight ago. With further improvement on the cards, Iain Jardine's charge can go a place better. Alice Haynes has made a good start to 2023 with her juveniles and Golden Arrow is put forward as the main danger ahead of fellow newcomer Golden Mind before market clues.

Having finished placed at Musselburgh on his first two starts, MOONSTONE BOY is taken to put his experience to good use.

Predicted finishing order: 1. 1.5/1 (5) QUEENS ROCK 2. 4.5/1 (7) SAMI BEAR 3. 9/1 (4) MASTER DEBONAIR

This could go the way of the unexposed QUEENS ROCK, who bolted up over an extended 2m3f at Doncaster on her most recent outing in February. She is rated 11lb higher for that success, but Nicky Henderson's six-year-old left the impression there is more in her locker and she is taken to add to her tally. Hell Red switches back to timber and is feared, while Ashington is another to bear in mind.

Having had a breathing operation, QUEENS ROCK scored with the minimum of fuss on her handicap debut at Doncaster in February and she's in top hands to progress further. The 6-y-o is taken to see off the challenge of Sami Bear, who can get back on track after his saddle slipped last time, while Ashington can also go well again back up in trip.

Unfortunate in two of his latest three starts, SAMI BEAR could still be on a fair mark.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on these brief summaries, as there is limited information provided. However, 1.88/1 (2) SALDIER and 8/1 (3) THE FLIER BEGLEY seem to be the strongest contenders based on their recent wins and previous form. 1.88/1 (8) VINA ARDANZA also has the potential to do well, as a consistent handicapper over hurdles who is switching to chase. Therefore, we predict the finishing order to be: 1) 1.88/1 (2) SALDIER, 2) 8/1 (3) THE FLIER BEGLEY, and 3) 1.88/1 (8) VINA ARDANZA.

SALDIER looks well treated by race conditions despite having to concede weight to all bar two rivals. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding, who was easily the best of these over hurdles, impressed with his jumping when making a successful chasing debut at Thurles in February. Although pulled up in Grade 3 company at Naas subsequently, that was clearly not his true running. A reproduction of his earlier form should see the nine-year-old return to winning ways. Vina Ardanza fell at this track on his chasing debut last August but has been a consistent handicapper at the highest level since reverting to hurdles. While he does need to put that initial mishap behind him, the six-year-old remains unexposed. Stablemate Perfect Attitude also disappointed over fences here last year but has since finished runner-up at Listowel.

VINA ARDANZA looked set to make a winning start in this sphere before departing at the last here back in August, so Gordon Elliott's 6-y-o gets the vote to make amends. One-time very smart hurdler Saldier made a winning chasing debut at Thurles in February and Willie Mullins' charge can get back on track after a lacklustre effort at Naas 9 weeks ago. Perfect Attitude and recent winner The Flier Begley can fight out third spot.

Gavin Cromwell's VINA ARDANZA has proved consistent over hurdles and is getting 6lb from his main rivals. He has a big shout

However, some horses that stand out are 5.5/1 (3) WHATSDASTORY, 6.5/1 (7) LOST CONNECTIONS, and 4.5/1 (5) OUR BILL'S AUNT. Based on recent form, 5.5/1 (3) WHATSDASTORY has consistently hit the crossbar in small field mares' handicaps, while 6.5/1 (7) LOST CONNECTIONS performed well despite being out of the handicap at Cheltenham. 4.5/1 (5) OUR BILL'S AUNT also showed promise in her last two runs, winning her handicap debut and placing second in her last race. Therefore, these three horses are the most likely contenders for the top three places, with the exact order dependent on factors such as form, weight, and jockey booking.

MAID ON THE MOON lost little in defeat when second to the unexposed Queens Rock over hurdles at Doncaster in February and Alan King's mare looks the type who could relish these larger obstacles. Our Bill's Aunt is another chasing debutant who arrives in good form, and her latest 1lb rise for finishing runner-up at Chepstow shouldn't prevent a bold bid. Lost Connections also enters calculations.

Tough to be bullish with the majority making their chasing debuts, MULBERRY HILL selected to make a winning start in this sphere having previously been placed in a couple of Irish points in 2021 and Fergal O'Brien's charge should step up on her recent Cheltenham outing after 6 months off. Our Bill's Aunt won her sole start in points, so she's put forward as the main threat, ahead of the experienced Whatsdastory.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will finish in 1st, 2nd and 3rd place. It is important to consider factors such as the distance of the race, the track conditions, the jockey and trainer, and the horse's recent form and performance. It is recommended to conduct further research and analysis before making any predictions.

QUINTUS ARRIUS was headed in the dying strides on his handicap debut at Pontefract earlier in the month and he looks capable of defying a 4lb rise in the ratings. Hour By Hour appeared too keen to see out the 7f trip at Leicester and this C&D winner isn't to be taken lightly, while Mereside Diva arrives in good heart and is another to consider stepping up in class.

The strength behind MOUNTAIN WARRIOR in the betting on his last 2 novice runs suggests he's well regarded by the Ed Bethell stable and he can make a successful switch to handicap company. Quintus Arrius and Mereside Diva are feared most after near misses on their recent handicap debuts.

Having won two of his four 2yo starts, HOUGOUMONT (nap) brings potential to this 3yo campaign and earns the vote.

The predicted order of finish is 1) 2.5/1 (3) HENSCHKE, 2) 2.75/1 (5) CALL OF THE LOON, 3) 4/1 (1) FAUSTINOVICK.

Henschke bounced back to form when finishing a good second at Warwick last month and although he merits respect from an unchanged mark, DALKINGSTOWN shades the vote. Peter Bowen's charge came up short on his hat-trick bid at Cartmel 300 days ago, but he has won following a similar absence in the past and remains fairly handicapped. Faustinovick continues to run well in defeat and is likely to be on the premises once more.

CALL OF THE LOON is a veteran but he made a good start for the Christian Williams yard last summer and has gone well fresh before so he earns the vote. Henschke has a bit of a patchy record but will be a big danger if reproducing the level of his latest Warwick second.

After his return to form at Warwick, HENSCHKE is taken to gain a second chasing success.

Prediction: 1.63/1 (5) HAUTURIERE is likely to do well based on her impressive hurdling record and fourth-place finish in a Grade 1 mares novice hurdle last month. 5/1 (3) EABHA GRACE also has a strong chance, having won a Grade 3 at Limerick on her penultimate start and not to be dismissed despite being pulled up at Fairyhouse last time. 6/1 (4) HAPPY D'EX could potentially finish in third place, as he has shown decent form over fences in his four starts so far.

ROSEYS HOLLOW may be able to put her previous chasing experience to good use here to see off a pair of Willie Mullins-trained chasing newcomers. A former Grade 3 winner over hurdles, the nine-year-old has shown definite promise in five starts since switching to fences and that can prove the decisive factor here. The Jonathan Sweeney-trained mare was marginally the best of these over hurdles but will need to be at her peak in this competitive event. Hauturiere impressed when winning in Listed class over hurdles at Punchestown in February before finishing runner-up to stablemate Eabha Grace next time. However, the daughter of No Risk At All comprehensively overturned that form when the pair met again in Grade 1 company at Fairyhouse last month. While Eabha Grace is almost certainly better than that form implies, she has work to do now.

Willie Mullins looks to hold a strong hand and his useful hurdler HAUTURIERE is taken to go in at the first time of asking over fences and edge out stablemate Eabha Grace, who also starts out chasing with plenty to recommend her. Roseys Hollow and Happy d'Ex can fight it out for minor honours.

An intriguing mares contest where ROSEYS HOLLOW can put her chasing experience to good use and get off the mark over fences.

DYNAMIC KATE may have been second best when falling at the last flight at Stratford in October, but with the winner of that contest subsequently scoring again, a 4lb rise looks more than fair. The selection does have her well-being to prove after a 223-day absence, which may give some hope to connections of Happy Index, who offered plenty of encouragement when finishing fourth on her handicap debut here last month. Pumpkin's Pride and Say Nothing complete the shortlist.

PUMPKIN'S PRIDE took a big step back in the right direction when third at Doncaster in February, shaping as if ready for a step up in trip, so he can build on that effort to open his account this time around. Dynamic Kate showed much improved form in 2022/23 and is feared most on her return, ahead of Dellboy Trotter.

Today's step up in trip may bring about the necessary improvement from HOLLOW RON, who shaped quite well over 2m on his handicap debut.

Casilli recorded a career-best performance when successful at Beverley in July and the six-year-old mare could have a say in proceedings now only 4lb higher on her return. The lightly-raced Zarabanda makes most appeal of the remainder.

A highly competitive handicap with NIGWA fancied to take another step forward and come out on top. She made an encouraging comeback at Newcastle and likely has more to offer for a yard enjoying a good season. Zarabanda is a big player on her handicap debut, while My Little Queens and Crown Princess are a couple of the other more interesting ones.

This could go to last year's winner CROWN PRINCESS, who is now 2lb lower and can build on her fair reappearance run at Beverley.

1st: 1/1 (6) A TICKATICKATIMING 2nd: 16/1 (1) AMI BONDHU 3rd: 5.5/1 (4) MOUNTAIN PASS

A TICKATICKATIMING is yet to finish out of the places from her three starts in bumpers and this presents the ideal opportunity for the Sixties Icon mare to get her head in front. Mikhaila and Buck Of Maine make appeal on paper and both warrant a market check ahead of their respective debuts, while recent point-to-point runner-up Stowford may also possess the ability to play a leading role.

A TICKATICKATIMING sets a clear standard on the back of her recent second here, with newcomers Mikhaila and Mountain Pass perhaps likeliest to pose a threat.

Last month's C&D runner-up A TICKATICKATIMING sets the standard.

16:55 Killarney Handicap Chase 26f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

It is difficult to predict a clear winner from this summary, but some horses that could potentially finish in the top three are 5/1 (4) O'TOOLE, 6/1 (11) BALLYKEEL, and 8/1 (12) ROUTINE EXCELLENCE.

It could prove significant that Daryl Jacob makes the journey to Killarney for just the sole ride on former Grade 1 bumper horse O'TOOLE. The seven-year-old made a very pleasing chasing debut at Wetherby in January, before doing little wrong when runner-up in a Grade 2 at Wetherby last time. Lightly raced and completely unexposed over fences, the Stuart Crawford-trained gelding looks nicely handicapped off a mark of 133. Ballykeel arrives here in good form having gone close in a competitive handicap at Punchestown last month. The Presenting gelding, who has been a model of consistency since going chasing, looks almost certain to play a leading role. Willie Mullins-trained topweights in races such as this are always to be feared, so Ramillies deserves close consideration.

BALLYKEEL was collared late at Punchestown last time but shaped as if comfortably ahead of his mark for most of the way, so he gets the narrow vote in this competitive event. Routine Excellence is a big danger and En Beton looks interesting back from an absence.

17:05 Ludlow Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on these summaries, but 1.63/1 (1) THE BOLD THADY seems to have the best chance as it has made the frame in six consecutive handicaps and ran close to its best in its last race. Therefore, 1.63/1 (1) THE BOLD THADY is predicted to finish in 1st or 2nd place. In 2nd or 3rd place, 8.5/1 (2) SCRUM DIDDLY could make an impact with cheekpieces applied for handicap debut and having shaped like a stayer in its last three outings. And for the 3rd or 4th place, 8/1 (4) CHAMPAGNE GIFT is worth a glance in the betting as it could make more impact with the significantly longer trip promising to suit it and with the cheekpieces on for the first time.

THE BOLD THADY returned to form with a solid third at Plumpton last month and Neil Mulholland's gelding looks to have been found a suitable opportunity to gain a first success. Imprevu Du Large hasn't offered much in three appearances over hurdles since January, but a better showing is expected now he's up in trip for his handicap debut. Connections of Realm Of Glory reach for first-time cheekpieces and he may also have a say in proceedings.

IMPREVU DU LARGE is rare for a horse from the Paul Nicholls yard in that he has been given such a lowly opening mark and a chance is taken that he'll fare better now handicapping. The Bold Thady probably sets the standard in form terms but he is an irresolute beast and can't be fully trusted to get the job done even against inferior opposition. Scrum Diddly may now do better up in trip and completes the shortlist.

1st - 4/1 (6) PISANELLO, 2nd - 6.5/1 (2) DUTCH DECOY, 3rd - 14/1 (11) MOSTAWAA

Ravenglass could surprise a few from the bottom of the weights, but he may still struggle to cope with PISANELLO, who was beaten less than a length when second on his return in the Thirsk Hunt Cup, despite making a slow start. Only put up 1lb for that effort, he may prove too good for these, while Dutch Decoy is yet to taste defeat at the track after two starts and is another for the shortlist following a solid effort at Newmarket last Saturday.

A very tricky event in which the tentative choice goes to PISANELLO who usually runs his race and should have the circumstances to suit his patient style. On A Session and Shaladar are two of several others with feasible claims.

Preference is for DUTCH DECOY, who is 2-2 at Hamilton and runs off his last winning mark. Pisanello is next best.

1st: 1.5/1 (9) MY GREAT MATE 2nd: 4/1 (4) CHICAGO STYLE 3rd: 3.33/1 (16) RAINBOW LILY

As a half-brother to Grade 1 winning mare Ashroe Diamond, the eye is immediately drawn to MY GREAT MATE. The Willie Mullins-trained gelding is also related to Take Tea, a mare that made a hugely impressive racecourse debut in a Naas bumper for the same stable. It would be a surprise if the four-year-old wasn't well forward for this introduction. D'jo Dela Barriere represents a trainer that has traditionally done well in bumpers at this track over the years, so he has to enter calculations. The fact that Sam Curling has booked leading amateur Derek O'Connor suggests that a big performance is expected. Tail Gunner could be an interesting outsider given the fact he is a well related gelding hailing from a family that has already produced a fair share of winners under rules.

MY GREAT MATE is related to several bumper winners and he couldn't be in better hands, so a winning debut would come as no surprise. Rainbow Lily shaped well at Punchestown and is a definite threat, along with Chicago Style representing an excellent Flat yard.

17:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 3) 5f Race Class Flow

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

My prediction would be that 3.5/1 (1) SPOOF will do well based on the fact that he is in peak form and has recently won at Ascot. 1st place: 3.5/1 (1) SPOOF 2nd place: 6.5/1 (10) JORDAN ELECTRICS 3rd place: 5.5/1 (4) THE THIN BLUE LINE

Jordan Electrics has won here three times and arrives in good form after a win at Ayr earlier in the month, but he does need a career best off this mark and preference is for the hat-trick seeking SPOOF. A winner at Windsor and Ascot, he does have an extra 5lb from the handicapper now, but Billy Loughnane claims 3lb back, and a good draw in stall one may negate the rest. Huddle Up and Object could fight it out for the minor honours.

With headgear left off, JORDAN ELECTRICS gained a first success at 5f since he was a 2-y-o when justifying strong support at Ayr 10 days ago and he can follow up on only his third start for his current yard. Heading the list of dangers is Spoof who arrives bidding for a hat-trick, while Huddle Up and The Thin Blue Line also merit consideration.

1st: 5.5/1 (6) MISTER CAMACHO 2nd: 12/1 (7) DUNDORY 3rd: 6.5/1 (2) RAVENSCRAIG CASTLE

World Without Love may be running on through beaten horses over this reduced trip and she could yet pick them off for a place, but first prize may go to one of Musselburgh winner Fairmac, or the rapidly improving MISTER CAMACHO, who hacked up at Catterick last month. The four-year-old gets 5lb from his rival here and that may just about be enough to see him come out on top.

A highly-competitive staying handicap, in which last year's runner-up CAPTAIN HADDOCK can go one better after an encouraging return at Doncaster. He has a previous C&D win to his name and still remains well treated on last season's best form, so gets the nod ahead of recent Musselburgh 1-2 Fairmac and Ravenscraig Castle in a race where cases can be made for most.

This field contains any number of viable options. HEIGHTS OF ABRAHAM may be the one to emerge on top.

18:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 4) 11f Race Class Flow

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

Prediction: 5/1 (7) AQWAAM will finish in 1st place, 11/1 (4) CROESO CYMRAEG will finish in 2nd place, and 3.33/1 (1) FAYLAQ will finish in 3rd place.

FAYLAQ caught the eye when finishing a good second over 1m5f here a week ago. The drop in trip unlikely to pose an issue and he could make amends down in class. Don't Look Back remains relatively unexposed in this sphere and is one to keep onside, having been narrowly denied over C&D on his latest outing. Croeso Cymraeg is entitled to be thereabouts, while Irish-raider Derry Lad should not be underestimated either.

A tightly-knit handicap with CROESO CYMRAEG just about the most persuasive option with this track fancied to suit the James-Evans trained veteran. Aqwaam and Faylaq arrive on the back of excellent runner-up efforts and are just a couple of potential threats.

This promises to be highly competitive but 1m3f here could prove a good fit for the Irish challenger DERRY LAD.

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.
