13:30 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 23f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (1.62/1 +41%) Dalkingstown	1.62/1(+41%)	(1) Dalkingstown 1.62/1, Dual point winner who came good over fences in Sedgefield handicap in January. Good runner-up efforts last twice (chase/hurdle) and likely to be on premises again. Tongue tie and cheekpieces he's worn separately the last twice are now combined for the first time.
2 2nd (4) (2.75/1 -38%) Port O'Clock	2.75/1(-38%)	(4) Port O'Clock 2.75/1, Multiple pointer winner who showed a bit of promise over hurdles last year and made a successful switch to chasing in 3m Exeter hunter in April. Interesting now handicapping for David Pipe with cheekpieces added to his regular tongue tie,.
3 3rd (2) (18/1 -80%) Townshend	18/1(-80%)	(2) Townshend 18/1, Has come down a long way in the weights since his last win in January 2020 but he isn't obviously shaping as if likely to take advantage, albeit his stamina was likely stretched at 27f on Market Rasen reappearance.
4 4th (3) (28/1 -40%) Frankie Rapper	28/1(-40%)	(3) Frankie Rapper 28/1, Handicap hurdle winner over 23f in 2018 for Dan Skelton but absent for over 3 years prior to offering little in a Stratford hunter last month. Lots to prove on first run for new trainer.
\|U\| \|U\| (5) (3.5/1 +0%) Trumps Benefit	3.5/1(+0%)	(5) Trumps Benefit 3.5/1, Shaped well until his stamina appeared to give out over 3m at Fakenham last time. Slightly shorter trip now and he's dipped to 4 lb below his last winning mark. Player.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (6) (5/1 +17%) Regaby	5/1(+17%)	(6) Regaby 5/1, Did well over fences last season, winning 3 times between August and November. Might have needed the run on both comeback runs this spring and should be spot on now.

	1 1st (2) (0.53/1 +56%) Floating Rock		0.53/1(+56%)																						(2) Floating Rock 0.53/1, Taken well to fences, second here on first attempt before going one better at Southwell last month. Ran well in a stronger race at Perth latest. Should give another good account.
	2 2nd (1) (1.5/1 -105%) Nero Rock		1.5/1(-105%)																						(1) Nero Rock 1.5/1, Took a while to get off the mark over fences but it all clicked this spring with a pair of Sedgefield handicap wins in May. Not in anything like the same form when remote second here last time but first-time cheekpieces could spark him back to life.

14:00 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f - 7 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (7) (2.75/1 +31%) Planned Paradise	2.75/1(+31%)	(7) Planned Paradise 2.75/1, Largely progressive over hurdles last term (won at Newcastle in December). Good second on C&D chase debut but no more than a respectable fourth at Huntingdon since.
2 2nd (6) (2/1 +20%) La Domaniale	2/1(+20%)	(6) La Domaniale 2/1, Fair hurdler who improved immediately for fences when winning with a bit up her sleeve at Utrtoxeter 17 days ago, jumping accurately and travelling strongly. 7 lb rise doesn't look enough to stop her with further progress likely.
3 3rd (3) (4/1 +0%) Ashoka	4/1(+0%)	(3) Ashoka 4/1, Enjoyed a revival over hurdles this spring, completing a hat-trick. Creditable third at Uttoxeter latest and he certainly has handicapping scope on best chase form now going back over the larger obstacles.
4 4th (4) (12/1 -9%) Due Reward	12/1(-9%)	(4) Due Reward 12/1, Useful hurdler/chaser on his day in Ireland, but profile is rather hit and miss and he was a remote fourth back chasing at Stratford last month. Others arrive with more compelling claims.
5th 5th (5) (33/1 -106%) Templehills	33/1(-106%)	(5) Templehills 33/1, Veteran who scored at Stratford last autumn but he hasn't been in anything like the same form in his 3 outings since.
6th 6th (2) (66/1 -100%) Ornua	66/1(-100%)	(2) Ornua 66/1, One-time smart chaser in Ireland for Henry de Bromhead but nowhere near as good nowadays, finishing a tailed-off fifth to the reopposing Al Roc at Fakenham last time.
7th 7th (1) (4/1 -45%) Al Roc	4/1(-45%)	(1) Al Roc 4/1, This veteran has been in really good form in recent weeks, making it 3 wins in his last 4 starts when forging 12 lengths clear at Uttoxeter 10 days ago. Raised another 6 lb but he merits plenty of respect in his current mood.

14:15 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (3) (2.5/1 +17%) Major Snugfit	2.5/1(+17%)	(3) Major Snugfit 2.5/1, Three Flat wins last year before landing back to back handicap hurdles at Sedgefield/Southwell in November. Good second over C&D in this headgear combination 8 days ago. Another bold show on the cards.
2 2nd (7) (3.33/1 +39%) Chemical Warfare	3.33/1(+39%)	(7) Chemical Warfare 3.33/1, Modest maiden. Respectable 7 lengths third of 9 over C&D 15 days ago. Another who can't be discounted.
3 3rd (4) (3.5/1 -17%) Jack Yeats	3.5/1(-17%)	(4) Jack Yeats 3.5/1, Maiden over hurdles but he reacted positively to the refitting of cheekpieces when close second over C&D 15 days ago. Player if in a similar mood this afternoon.
4 4th (9) (6.5/1 +64%) That's Your Lottie	6.5/1(+64%)	(9) That's Your Lottie 6.5/1, Arrives below par, finishing fifth over C&D 15 days ago. Others are preferred again.
5th 5th (2) (14/1 -17%) Archive	14/1(-17%)	(2) Archive 14/1, Best run back hurdling in recent months when fourth (Major Snugfit second) over C&D last weekend. Likely to be competitive if showing up here in similar form.
6th 6th (5) (9/1 +36%) Strike Of Lighting	9/1(+36%)	(5) Strike Of Lighting 9/1, Best effort yet over hurdles when sixth in a 13-runner Carlisle handicap in March, but he's failed to complete in a course handicap hurdle and chase since. Back down in trip with a hood refitted.
7th 7th (8) (16/1 +60%) Geyser	16/1(+60%)	(8) Geyser 16/1, Winless since 2019, although he did look to be making headway when a blunder 2 out halted his momentum over C&D last time. Cheekpieces worn then are retained.
8th 8th (6) (22/1 -38%) Across The Channel	22/1(-38%)	(6) Across The Channel 22/1, Point winner but no better than modest form over hurdles/fences for Philip Hobbs. Did shape a bit better when fifth over C&D on stable debut a fortnight ago. Needs to show he cacn build on that now.

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

14:35 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f - 15 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
(15) (125/1 -89%) Hoochygoochyman	125/1(-89%)	(15) Hoochygoochyman 125/1, Looks very limited.
1 1st (5) (5/1 +50%) Do Ya Feel Lucky	5/1(+50%)	(5) Do Ya Feel Lucky 5/1, Course winner last summer from 5 lb higher and following a lull, she took a step in the right direction at Wincanton in March. Since had a wind op and she clearly lurks on a dangerous mark.
2 2nd (10) (6/1 +40%) Getaway Cory	6/1(+40%)	(10) Getaway Cory 6/1, Maiden who was never really going when prominent in the betting at Newton Abbot last month. Bounce back called for.
3 3rd (6) (3/1 +40%) Masterdream	3/1(+40%)	(6) Masterdream 3/1, Returned with a career-best effort to score comfortably over C&D last month. Race a weeks later when unpenalised may have come too soon and no surprise were he to resume his progress.
4 4th (8) (16/1 -45%) Rebel Royal	16/1(-45%)	(8) Rebel Royal 16/1, In good form when placed twice at Stratford in October. Completed just once from 3 starts since, though he was still involved when falling at Fakenham latest.
5th 5th (7) (33/1 -65%) Zinat	33/1(-65%)	(7) Zinat 33/1, Won twice in Ireland in autumn 2020 and, while she hasn't matched that level since, last month's second at Southwell was a positive step. Not in the same form at Fontwell.
6th 6th (4) (16/1 +20%) Jack Thunder	16/1(+20%)	(4) Jack Thunder 16/1, Fair form at best over hurdles for Charlie Mann, but offered little starting out for this yard after 14 months off at Newcastle in March. Off since.
7th 7th (12) (22/1 -38%) Black Lightning	22/1(-38%)	(12) Black Lightning 22/1, Scored at Fontwell in October but well below form since.
8th 8th (11) (3.33/1 +5%) No Worries	3.33/1(+5%)	(11) No Worries 3.33/1, Followed up C&D success with ready victory in 17f handicap at Les Landes in Jersey during the autumn. Added to tally at latter venue when last seen in April and this mark is very workable.
9th 9th (2) (50/1 -25%) Barely Famous	50/1(-25%)	(2) Barely Famous 50/1, Uttoxeter maiden (2½m) winner but let go cheaply out of Nicky Henderson's stable and well held both starts for this yard.
10th 10th (1) (7/1 -17%) Millbank Flyer	7/1(-17%)	(1) Millbank Flyer 7/1, Showed promise when placed on 2 of his 3 starts in novice hurdles. Failed to fully translate that form fences but mark has dropped as a result and he's of interest back over the smaller obstacles.
11th 11th (9) (40/1 -400%) Pittsburg	40/1(-400%)	(9) Pittsburg 40/1, Returned from wind surgery to land a gamble at Catterick (19f) in December. Gone into his shell since, albeit he may have needed the run at Southwell 2 weeks ago. Market can guide with tongue tie back on.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (3) (16/1 -14%) Monarchofthegrange	16/1(-14%)	(3) Monarchofthegrange 16/1, Selling winner at Leicester in November. Patchy form at best since (largely over fences) but this trip more suitable than 3m he tried a fortnight ago. Hood removed.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (13) (40/1 -21%) Ace Time	40/1(-21%)	(13) Ace Time 40/1, Purple patch when landing 2m handicap hurdles at Leicester and Uttoxeter late last year, but subsequent efforts poor. Back in trip following experiment over 25f last time.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (14) (50/1 -150%) Torino	50/1(-150%)	(14) Torino 50/1, Fair maiden on the Flat but has offered little in his trio of qualifying runs over hurdles at Ludlow (15.8f). Up in trip for handicap debut with cheekpieces added.

14:45 Hexham Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 5 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (3) (3/1 +33%) Well Educated	3/1(+33%)	(3) Well Educated 3/1, Opened his account at sixth attempt over hurdles (in first-time cheekpieces) in selling company here over 16.2f in April. Left John Quinn after and matched that level when second in a handicap upped to 22.1f at Cartmel.
2 2nd (5) (4/1 +33%) Fox's Socks	4/1(+33%)	(5) Fox's Socks 4/1, Left previous form well behind when making a mockery of his opening mark at Uttoxeter on final start for Tom Lacey in July. Changed hands for £20,000 after and just fair efforts both starts 5 months apart, though he may strip fitter with Fontwell behind him.
3 3rd (4) (3/1 -20%) Barney Stinson	3/1(-20%)	(4) Barney Stinson 3/1, Tumbled in the weights for this yard bit has stopped the slide in recent weeks, fourth at Ayr prior to finding only one too good over C&D 2 weeks later. Repeat of that will see him involved.
4 4th (2) (2.12/1 -13%) Melburnian	2.12/1(-13%)	(2) Melburnian 2.12/1, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles for Tony Martin but a fair winner on Flat and made a very promising start for her new yard when runner up over 2m here a fortnight ago. Well handicapped and likely to stay this far.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (1) (11/1 -38%) Treasured Company	11/1(-38%)	(1) Treasured Company 11/1, Successful twice over 2m during the second half of 2021 and shaped as though in need of the run on last month's return from an absence. Expected to step up on that if seeing out this trip.

15:05 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (16/1 -14%) Jamacho	16/1(-14%)	(4) Jamacho 16/1, Productive last summer, winning twice over hurdles before making it second time lucky over fences at Huntingdon (16.5f) in October. Fell on return at Southwell but ran no sort of race at Stratford (17f) subsequently, beaten long way out. Switch back to hurdling may help now.
2 2nd (6) (4/1 +60%) Pillar Of Steel	4/1(+60%)	(6) Pillar Of Steel 4/1, Bagged her fifth win of 2021 in Stratford handicap (2m) in October. Had winning run ended at Taunton later that month but likely she needed first start for 7 months at Bangor (16.6f) in May. Entitled to be sharper here.
3 3rd (2) (2.75/1 +17%) Chasamax	2.75/1(+17%)	(2) Chasamax 2.75/1, Dual 2m winner in 2021 (latterly over C&D 12 months ago) and he stepped up on his Ludlow return at Ffos Las in May (awarded race having suffered interference). 2 lb higher on the back of that and he's fancied to go well again.
4 4th (10) (10/1 +44%) Solstalla	10/1(+44%)	(10) Solstalla 10/1, Completed hat-trick last summer (latterly taking a C&D handicap) but had gone completely off the boil when last seen. Has gone well fresh in the past though, so not one to dismiss out of hand from easing mark.
5th 5th (9) (4/1 -14%) Inn The Bull	4/1(-14%)	(9) Inn The Bull 4/1, Fallen plenty in weights and he ran well when runner-up in an amateur jockey's handicap at Ludlow (21.2f) last month. Versatile as regards trip, so worth a second look in an open-looking affair.
6th 6th (5) (33/1 -83%) Sid Hoodie	33/1(-83%)	(5) Sid Hoodie 33/1, Stepped up markedly on his return/yard debut when running out a good winner at Market Rasen (16.5f) last July. Lost his form in 3 starts thereafter though, well beaten sixth of 7 at Huntingdon (15.8f) when last seen in December. Break needs to have had positive effect now.
7th 7th (8) (4/1 -14%) Cadeau D'or	4/1(-14%)	(8) Cadeau D'or 4/1, Fairly useful 10f Flat winner for Andrew Balding who has showed a bit in a couple of novice/maiden hurdles in recent months, fading out of things over 19f at Warwick latest. Remains with potential now handicapping and possibilities back at 2m.
8th 8th (7) (12/1 +0%) Isaac Wonder	12/1(+0%)	(7) Isaac Wonder 12/1, Unreliable sort for Michael Scudamore but tasted success twice (from 3 starts) between the flags early on last month. However, made little impact back under Rules over fences at Fakenham 4 weeks ago and tough to assess back over timber.
9th 9th (1) (28/1 -56%) Persia	28/1(-56%)	(1) Persia 28/1, Successful twice in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien last year, but he's offered little both starts for present stable, again beaten some way out when last of 6 at Market Rasen (18.6f) 16 days ago. Headgear again left off here.

15:20 Hexham Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (6) (3/1 +14%) Prince Dundee	3/1(+14%)	(6) Prince Dundee 3/1, Notched a third C&D win last May (from a mark of 100) and he arrives here having run well when 6 lengths second of 6 back here 15 days ago, albeit no match for the winner. Still, expected to give another good account.
2 2nd (5) (1.1/1 +37%) The Vollan	1.1/1(+37%)	(5) The Vollan 1.1/1, Three-time hurdle winner for Charlie Longsdon who capitalised on his lower chase mark in a refitted visor at Southwell (24.2f) 2 weeks ago, mistake 2 out but forging clear. Only 2 lb higher and he rates a lead player with a repeat.
3 3rd (3) (10/1 +9%) Cooldine Bog	10/1(+9%)	(3) Cooldine Bog 10/1, Ran well when runner-up over hurdles on debut for Fergal O'Brien at Musselburgh (23.8f) on New Year's Day but backward steps over both sets of obstacles thereafter. Blinkers/yard switch needs to have positive effect now.
4 4th (1) (8/1 -191%) Amalfi Doug	8/1(-191%)	(1) Amalfi Doug 8/1, Veteran who added another couple of victories to his tally at Perth last summer. Proved more miss than hit subsequently but mark has eased as a result and not disgraced when runner-up, albeit in a 3-runner contest back at Perth 2 weeks ago.
\|F\| \|F\| (4) (8/1 +20%) For Jim	8/1(+20%)	(4) For Jim 8/1, Five-time winner last season, (twice over C&D). Hasn't fired either start back from a break at Bangor this campaign but he's another who is falling in the weights and a return to this venue may have a positive effect. Visor replaces cheekpieces now.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (2) (16/1 -14%) Brian Boranha	16/1(-14%)	(2) Brian Boranha 16/1, Gained first win since 2018 when arriving late on the scene to land a Catterick handicap in November but has found it tough going since. Returns from a short break now with cheekpieces refitted.

15:35 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 2) 20f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (5) (6/1 +50%) Solo Saxophone	6/1(+50%)	(5) Solo Saxophone 6/1, Has developed into a useful stayer on the Flat in recent years and second back hurdling at Wetherby in November. Not at best since (including on Flat), though, leaving Ben Haslam before his latest outing.
2 2nd (1) (1.62/1 +35%) Miranda	1.62/1(+35%)	(1) Miranda 1.62/1, Likeable mare who showed an excellent attitude when scoring at Ludlow in December. Below form on both subsequent hurdling outings but wasn't disgraced on the Flat at Haydock in May.
3 3rd (2) (14/1 +13%) Dandy Mag	14/1(+13%)	(2) Dandy Mag 14/1, Pretty smart at his best for Willie Mullins but has made little impact so far for current yard. Plenty to prove.
4 4th (4) (1.1/1 +33%) Percy's Word	1.1/1(+33%)	(4) Percy's Word 1.1/1, Impressive when registering a facile handicap victory on return at this course (16f) and backed it up with a creditable second at Warwick. Return to this trip no issue, so should take the beating.

15:45 Pontefract Stakes (Class 4) 6f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (6) (11/1 +8%) Misty Blues	11/1(+8%)	(6) Misty Blues 11/1, Still looks to be learning after 2 starts, finding things happening a bit too quickly back at 5f at York last week. Return to 6f will help.
2 2nd (1) (2.75/1 -22%) Speriamo	2.75/1(-22%)	(1) Speriamo 2.75/1, Debut run at Beverley wasn't devoid of promise and she built on that when justifying support in 9-runner novice at Kempton (6f, 9/4) 32 days ago. Likely to progress again but has stall 9 to negotiate.
3 3rd (3) (11/1 -10%) Disputed	11/1(-10%)	(3) Disputed 11/1, Bred to stay well and offered something to work on when third of 5 in maiden at Musselburgh (7.2f, good to firm) on debut 14 days ago. Cheekpieces quickly on but drop in trip isn't an obvious move.
4 4th (7) (28/1 -12%) Riverside Girl	28/1(-12%)	(7) Riverside Girl 28/1, Limited impact both starts.
5th 5th (8) (2.75/1 +8%) Lady Lavina	2.75/1(+8%)	(8) Lady Lavina 2.75/1, Caught the eye in no uncertain terms when fourth on debut at Ripon and may have bumped into a useful one at Chelmsford 17 days ago. Stall 8 isn't ideal but she's still the one to beat.
6th 6th (4) (5.5/1 +45%) Top Of The Class	5.5/1(+45%)	(4) Top Of The Class 5.5/1, 50,000 gns yearling, Zoustar filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Qipao. Still looked green when fourth at Chelmsford 3 weeks ago and needs to break with more purpose to exploit inside stall.
7th 7th (5) (9/1 +25%) Gutsy Lady	9/1(+25%)	(5) Gutsy Lady 9/1, Dam, 5f/6f winner, half-sister to useful 5f winner Duchess Dora. Clearly bred to be sharp and displayed clear ability amidst greenness when fourth of 10 starting out at Redcar. Better expected.
8th 8th (2) (8/1 -45%) Dee See Are	8/1(-45%)	(2) Dee See Are 8/1, Foaled April 9. 16,000 gns foal, £45,000 yearling, Massaat filly. Closely related to 2-y-o 5f winner Fabiosa. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Yard's juveniles in excellent order (one of 3 here for the stable).
9th 9th (9) (12/1 +52%) Sweet Fortune	12/1(+52%)	(9) Sweet Fortune 12/1, Foaled February 3. 5,000 gns yearling, Unfortunately filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including 1m winner Susucaru and 1½m winner Anejo. One of 3 Karl Burke runners.

15:55 Hexham Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 6 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (8/1 -191%) Belvedere Blast	8/1(-191%)	(4) Belvedere Blast 8/1, Modest at best on the Flat but capable of making more of an impact over hurdles, sticking to the task when runner-up over 18.6f at Market Rasen 16 days ago. Should be in the mix.
2 2nd (6) (40/1 -82%) Young Moloney	40/1(-82%)	(6) Young Moloney 40/1, Left debut form well behind when fifth of 7 upped to 25.7f at Sligo on final start for S.Curling in October. Off since.
3 3rd (2) (0.3/1 +67%) Grand Du Nord	0.3/1(+67%)	(2) Grand Du Nord 0.3/1, Course bumper winner last April who looked in danger of going the wrong way over hurdles but he showed a lot more on the back of a wind op when second over C&D a month ago. Looks the one to beat.
4 4th (5) (22/1 -83%) Silver Coin	22/1(-83%)	(5) Silver Coin 22/1, Stuck to her task when fourth of 8 on hurdles debut Uttoxeter in May. That isn't form to get carried away with but he can build on that.
5th 5th (3) (5/1 +0%) True Destiny	5/1(+0%)	(3) True Destiny 5/1, Pretty useful Flat winner for Roger Charlton but it hasn't yet happened over hurdles in Ireland. This is easier and headgear now on with Brian Hughes booked.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (1) (150/1 -275%) Amerdale	150/1(-275%)	(1) Amerdale 150/1, No impact both starts, reportedly breaking a blood vessel at Southwell a fortnight ago.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (0.44/1 +45%) Pop The Champagne	0.44/1(+45%)	(1) Pop The Champagne 0.44/1, Bumper winner for Graeme McPherson and left previous hurdling efforts behind when readily landing a novice at Ffos Las 17 days ago. One to consider.
2 2nd (5) (5.5/1 -22%) Sorceress Medea	5.5/1(-22%)	(5) Sorceress Medea 5.5/1, From a good jumps family and has shown a fair level of ability in bumpers. Should improve for the switch to hurdling, so looks a definite player.
3 3rd (4) (7/1 -75%) Night Fever	7/1(-75%)	(4) Night Fever 7/1, Fairly useful at best on Flat (stays 1½m) in Germany, below that level for Frau N. Volz-Degel in 2021. Needs market check making hurdling debut in weak race. Obvious claims under a penalty.
4 4th (6) (12/1 -20%) My Little Toni	12/1(-20%)	(6) My Little Toni 12/1, Finished alone on sole start in a point but has been disappointing so far under Rules (bumpers), leaving Bradley Gibbs prior to latest outing. Switch to hurdling might help.
5th 5th (3) (22/1 +56%) Lost Connections	22/1(+56%)	(3) Lost Connections 22/1, Dylan Thomas mare who was down the field in a bumper at Tipperary on sole outing 13 months ago. Has left Leonard Paul Flynn since.
6th 6th (2) (33/1 +50%) Happy Returns	33/1(+50%)	(2) Happy Returns 33/1, Half-sister to 5 winners but didn't cost much and showed nothing at Exeter on hurdling debut 7 months ago.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (8) (20/1 +70%) Visibility	20/1(+70%)	(8) Visibility 20/1, Quickened up well to resume winning ways at Southwell (1m) in January. Plenty of solid efforts in defeat have followed, respectable sixth at York last time. Mark has eased 2 lb since, but this is a competitive event.
2 2nd (2) (80/1 -142%) Piecederesistance	80/1(-142%)	(2) Piecederesistance 80/1, Fairly useful form on the Flat in France for Andre Fabre but hard to fancy based on what he's done in two hurdling outings for current stable. Returns from 4 months off.
3 3rd (6) (2.75/1 -10%) Highwaygrey	2.75/1(-10%)	(6) Highwaygrey 2.75/1, 4-time C&D winner who is on a long losing run and often lets himself down at the start. Mark has slipped and he's back at this track for the first time in 2022.
4 4th (1) (2.5/1 +38%) Love Is Golden	2.5/1(+38%)	(1) Love Is Golden 2.5/1, Useful sort who benefited from a drop in grade when second at Chester 8 days ago. Should remain competitive.
5th 5th (9) (5.5/1 +54%) Dungar Glory	5.5/1(+54%)	(9) Dungar Glory 5.5/1, Fairly useful filly who gave it a good go from the front when third of 5 at Ripon last time. Tongue tie now applied, but her stamina for this trip isn't assured.
6th 6th (11) (11/1 +56%) Freddy Robinson	11/1(+56%)	(11) Freddy Robinson 11/1, Fair form when reaching the frame on 3 of his 4 outings as a juvenile and made an encouraging reappearance when fifth at this course 13 days ago. Could do better up in trip with cheekpieces fitted.
7th 7th (7) (12/1 +25%) Taj Alola	12/1(+25%)	(7) Taj Alola 12/1, Produced a career best in first-time cheekpieces back on turf when second at Ripon last month. Failed to back it up in a visor at Epsom, though, and stall 10 won't help.
8th 8th (5) (9/1 +59%) Bollin Margaret	9/1(+59%)	(5) Bollin Margaret 9/1, Back to last winning mark and, while she only has one creditable effort to her name this year (ran poorly at York last time), she's not one to take lightly.
9th 9th (10) (7.5/1 -125%) Mackenzie Rose	7.5/1(-125%)	(10) Mackenzie Rose 7.5/1, Going the right way since upped to this trip and was well on top when scoring at Doncaster recently. Another bold showing is on the cards if she can get across from stall 11.

1 1st (1) (8.5/1 -113%) Dinons	8.5/1(-113%)	(1) Dinons 8.5/1, One-time useful chaser for Gordon Elliott and showed he retains plenty of ability when second at Huntingdon last month. Obvious claims if he can back that up.
2 2nd (3) (3/1 +25%) Dolly Dancer	3/1(+25%)	(3) Dolly Dancer 3/1, Improved to win 5-runner handicap chase at this course (24.2f, good, 11/4) 15 days ago, cosily after travelling well. Hard to know if he'll be in the same form, but worth considering.
3 3rd (5) (5/1 +41%) Storm Lorenzo	5/1(+41%)	(5) Storm Lorenzo 5/1, Fair maiden hurdler who made a winning start over fences in 5-runner novice chase at this course (24.2f, good, 9/2) 15 days ago. More needed back in handicap company. Engaged 2.17 Perth Saturday.
4 4th (4) (1.62/1 -8%) Follow Your Arrow	1.62/1(-8%)	(4) Follow Your Arrow 1.62/1, Fair maiden hurdler who has upped his game for a switch to chasing, benefiting from a return to further when a ready C&D winner 15 days ago. Capable of following up.
5th 5th (2) (10/1 -25%) Seemingly So	10/1(-25%)	(2) Seemingly So 10/1, Off the mark over fences at Musselburgh in February and gained his second win in this sphere at Market Rasen in May. Underlined his inconsistency (beaten when fell) at Perth since, though.
\|PU\| \|PU\| (6) (9/1 +10%) Kauto D'amour	9/1(+10%)	(6) Kauto D'amour 9/1, Out of sorts over hurdles when last seen. Pretty clumsy and only previous go over fences wasn't all that encouraging, so hard to fancy back from 5 months off.

2 2nd (2) (4.5/1 -35%) Castle Quarter	4.5/1(-35%)	(2) Castle Quarter 4.5/1, Fair Flat winner and has seemingly been brought along with handicaps in mind in a trio of novice hurdles so far. Better now expected from a workable opening mark.
3 3rd (4) (9/1 +18%) Right Destination	9/1(+18%)	(4) Right Destination 9/1, Unreliable sort ran benefited from a good ride when second at Wincanton on his penultimate outing but reverted to type on his next start and is best avoided on return from 7-month break,
4 4th (7) (3/1 +73%) White Turf	3/1(+73%)	(7) White Turf 3/1, Placed 6 times in spring/summer 2021 but disappointed at Ludlow last month after a mildly promising return. Feasibly treated on best form but has a question to answer now.
5th 5th (3) (4/1 +33%) Stumps Or Slips	4/1(+33%)	(3) Stumps Or Slips 4/1, Promising return when a close second at Uttoxeter last month, despite pulling hard, and probably found his next start coming too soon. LIkelier to be closer to form this time with hood/tongue tie applied.
6th 6th (9) (50/1 -52%) Maykir	50/1(-52%)	(9) Maykir 50/1, :Modest Flat winner who has shown little in 3 runs over hurdles.
7th 7th (6) (6.5/1 +59%) Jack The Farmer	6.5/1(+59%)	(6) Jack The Farmer 6.5/1, More impact when 2¼ lengths fifth of 8 to Noahthirtytwored at Stratford last time but still looks too high in the weights to land a blow here.
8th 8th (10) (80/1 -60%) Bryanwood	80/1(-60%)	(10) Bryanwood 80/1, Little form in 4 starts over hurdles and showed nothing on recent Flat outing, so looks opposable again from a stone out of the handicap.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (4) (4.5/1 +10%) Glenartney	4.5/1(+10%)	(4) Glenartney 4.5/1, Just a novice win as a juvenile to her name but she was placed at listed level last season. Behind Bartzella and Lady Hayes on Goodwood reappearance but produced a near-smart effort when third in York Group 3 since. Ought to be thereabouts.
2 2nd (5) (18/1 +36%) Goldie Hawk	18/1(+36%)	(5) Goldie Hawk 18/1, Two handicap wins around 1½m last season but unable to make an impact in listed company on final 2 runs last year. Her reappearance run in a Goodwood handicap was respectable but she needs more at this level.
3 3rd (7) (33/1 +34%) The Flying Ginger	33/1(+34%)	(7) The Flying Ginger 33/1, Dual winner in 2021 but operating below her best in a couple of handicap starts this term. Faces a stiff task at this level.
4 4th (6) (4/1 +20%) Lady Hayes	4/1(+20%)	(6) Lady Hayes 4/1, Has several good runs in defeat in listed races, including edged out by Bartzella on Goodwood reappearance, and she receives 3 lb from William Haggas' filly now. Not seen to best effect in Haydock Group 3 since and likely still in form.
5th 5th (1) (1.1/1 +12%) Bartzella	1.1/1(+12%)	(1) Bartzella 1.1/1, Well-bred filly who showed much improved form when edging out Lady Hayes in a 1½m Goodwood listed on her reappearance in April, taking her career record to 3-4. Has to give weight to that rival now but it's highly likely she has more to offer.
6th 6th (3) (4.5/1 -35%) By Starlight	4.5/1(-35%)	(3) By Starlight 4.5/1, Useful filly who won twice over this trip in handicap company at Goodwood last season. Ran very well when 1¼ lengths fourth of 9 to Sea La Rosa in Haydock Group 3 on reappearance. Each-way claims.
7th 7th (8) (80/1 +0%) Vindobala	80/1(+0%)	(8) Vindobala 80/1, Been a model of consistency at handicap level this year but her form is some way removed from the required standard here. Big outsider.

1 1st (3) (2.75/1 +63%) Fenna's Loss	2.75/1(+63%)	(3) Fenna's Loss 2.75/1, Promise when fourth of 7 in bumper (22/1) at Galway (16.4f, heavy) on NH debut but disappointed at Killarney 6 months later and has since left Charles Byrnes.
2 2nd (7) (16/1 -167%) Star Vantage	16/1(-167%)	(7) Star Vantage 16/1, Yard not renowned for winners in this sphere but belied long odds to run a cracker when second at Sedgefield on debut last autumn. Disappointing at Kelso since and hasn't been seen for 7 months. Tried in a hood.
3 3rd (1) (5/1 +29%) Ballyporeen	5/1(+29%)	(1) Ballyporeen 5/1, Signs of ability when mid-field on both outings to date, learning all the while. Might well up his game, and jockey booking catches the eye.
4 4th (8) (20/1 +20%) Emily Wade	20/1(+20%)	(8) Emily Wade 20/1, Lucky Speed mare. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (21f winner) Basford Bob. Worth a market check.
5th 5th (2) (40/1 -21%) Dapper Gent	40/1(-21%)	(2) Dapper Gent 40/1, Dapper gelding. Dam (h114) 2m-2½m hurdle winner. Likely to be brought along gradually.
6th 6th (4) (2.25/1 -80%) Gone In Sixty	2.25/1(-80%)	(4) Gone In Sixty 2.25/1, Related to a couple of winners and showed plenty when second in a Southwell bumper. That's clearly the best piece of form on show and he might well do better, so he boasts obvious claims.
7th 7th (12) (5.5/1 +8%) It's Maisy	5.5/1(+8%)	(12) It's Maisy 5.5/1, Sageburg filly. Half-sister to smart hurdler Shinrock Paddy, stayed 23f, and bumper winner Spring Lane. Dam, unraced, from family of high-class hurdler Colonel Yeager. One to note.
8th 8th (5) (20/1 -25%) I'm Dougal Rocks	20/1(-25%)	(5) I'm Dougal Rocks 20/1, Kap Rock gelding who didn't offer a great deal in a bumper at Sedgefield on debut in May. Likely to do better further down the line.
9th 9th (6) (125/1 -25%) Medicine Wheel	125/1(-25%)	(6) Medicine Wheel 125/1, Yet to show any ability.
10th 10th (11) (14/1 +13%) Rocco Molly	14/1(+13%)	(11) Rocco Molly 14/1, Shirocco mare. Dam (h96), 2½m hurdle winner, closely related to (stayed 19f) Fionn Mac Cul and (stayed 21f) Dark Episode (both fairly useful hurdlers). Makes some appeal on paper.
11th 11th (10) (100/1 -52%) Little Mariella	100/1(-52%)	(10) Little Mariella 100/1, Trans Island mare. Dam (h101), unreliable 3m/25f hurdle winner, also 1¼m winner on Flat. Hard to fancy.
12th 12th (9) (33/1 -32%) Ile De Memoires	33/1(-32%)	(9) Ile De Memoires 33/1, Trans Island mare. Dam (c88/h93), bumper/3m hurdle winner, sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser (2½m winner) Cloudmor. Likely to need further.

1 1st (8) (6/1 +50%) Canal Rocks	6/1(+50%)	(8) Canal Rocks 6/1, Fairly useful at best on Flat but offered little sent hurdling last season. Made much more impact though when third of 14 in novice seller at Stratford in May. Needs to build on that effort.
2 2nd (1) (4.5/1 +44%) Chess Player	4.5/1(+44%)	(1) Chess Player 4.5/1, Long-standing maiden but produced his best effort over hurdles when second in novice handicap at Doncaster in January. Shaped better than result after 4 months off when sixth of 8 at Fontwell last time.
3 3rd (2) (2.25/1 +18%) Beat The Heat	2.25/1(+18%)	(2) Beat The Heat 2.25/1, Fair Flat winner. Back down in trip and strong in the betting, showed improved form over hurdles when off the mark in novice handicap at Fontwell (17.7f) 11 days ago. Could go well again.
4 4th (6) (3.5/1 +50%) Mcpherson	3.5/1(+50%)	(6) Mcpherson 3.5/1, Fairly useful maiden on Flat in Ireland. Showed little on first 3 starts over hurdles but fared better when third of 9 on handicap debut at Ludlow last month. Has the scope for better again.
5th 5th (3) (20/1 +39%) Ensel Du Perche	20/1(+39%)	(3) Ensel Du Perche 20/1, Fair maiden hurdler for Gavin Cromwell in Ireland. Low-key start for current yard but, having dropped in the weights, finished runner-up at Market Rasen on Boxing Day. Below form last 2 starts though.
6th 6th (7) (18/1 -125%) Hybris	18/1(-125%)	(7) Hybris 18/1, Began career in a French bumper before well held over hurdles sole start for Willie Mullins 15 months later. Hasn't fared much better in pair of novices for current yard. Hood on as he makes handicap debut.
7th 7th (9) (5.5/1 +54%) Agent Saonois	5.5/1(+54%)	(9) Agent Saonois 5.5/1, After 6 months off showed first form on handicap debut when fourth over C&D in May. However, not in the same form when well held at Newton Abbot next time. Others preferred.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (13) (4.5/1 +63%) Kaizer	4.5/1(+63%)	(13) Kaizer 4.5/1, Not seen on the level since 2020 but his most recent effort over hurdles gives his supporters hope, fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (25.4f, good) 22 days ago. Certainly not out of things.
2 2nd (7) (8/1 +43%) Flint Hill	8/1(+43%)	(7) Flint Hill 8/1, Previous course winner who ran better than for a while without having any excuses when 3¼ lengths fourth of 6 to Overhaugh Street here earlier this month. Mark eases a shade further so he's not to be dismissed.
3 3rd (15) (5/1 +33%) Yasmin From York	5/1(+33%)	(15) Yasmin From York 5/1, Going through a fine spell at present, breaking her maiden tag at Catterick last month before following up back there 19 days later. Eked out a bit more improvement when runner-up at Wetherby since so she's not without hope upped further in trip.
4 4th (3) (6.5/1 +35%) Haizoom	6.5/1(+35%)	(3) Haizoom 6.5/1, All the better for her reappearance when taking a 13f Hamilton handicap 6 weeks ago. Made little impression at York a fortnight later but wasted no time getting back on track when third at Musselburgh earlier this month. Consistent on the whole so she has solid place credentials.
5th 5th (12) (66/1 +18%) Uncle Henry	66/1(+18%)	(12) Uncle Henry 66/1, Regular bleeder who fared a bit better than might have been expected given how little he's been showing over Jumps when runner-up in a claimer at Carlisle recently. Tough to warm to back in handicap company, though.
6th 6th (9) (50/1 -127%) Rukwa	50/1(-127%)	(9) Rukwa 50/1, Went very close from this mark over C&D in April but has finished tailed off on both subsequent starts, latest over hurdles earlier this month. Tough to know what mood he will be in so others have stronger credentials.
7th 7th (8) (22/1 -10%) Tigerten	22/1(-10%)	(8) Tigerten 22/1, Below form back on the level after a breathing operation when down the field at Kempton 18 days ago. Has a bit to prove at present so others make more appeal.
8th 8th (6) (11/1 +8%) The Rutland Rebel	11/1(+8%)	(6) The Rutland Rebel 11/1, Out of form towards the back end of last year but returned to a track he's run well at several times before, bounced back to form when 2¼ lengths third of 6 to Overhaugh Street just under a fortnight ago. Fancied to be in the mix once again from the same mark.
9th 9th (1) (11/1 +31%) Captain Haddock	11/1(+31%)	(1) Captain Haddock 11/1, Dual scorer on the turf last year and placed on first 2 outings in Sunday Series events this year. However he was well below his best at Musselburgh last a fortnight ago so will need to bounce back if he's to feature.
10th 10th (5) (25/1 +50%) Diocletian	25/1(+50%)	(5) Diocletian 25/1, Well held in 4 Flat starts since joining this yard and can only watch for now despite his tumbling mark.
11th 11th (11) (11/1 -29%) Overhaugh Street	11/1(-29%)	(11) Overhaugh Street 11/1, Took advantage of a surprisingly quick drop in the weights when scoring at this track (17.1f) just under a fortnight ago, staying on to lead final 1f and well on top finish. 4 lb rise far from excessive and he should give another solid account.
12th 12th (14) (3.33/1 +52%) Twilight Prince	3.33/1(+52%)	(14) Twilight Prince 3.33/1, Fair maiden handicapper who was 2 lb out of the weights and keen but ended up running well when runner-up at Bath 8 days ago. Evidently ossesses a lot more stamina than might have been expected so he's one to consider.
13th 13th (4) (16/1 +27%) Byron Hill	16/1(+27%)	(4) Byron Hill 16/1, Dual winner on the turf last year who, after 8 months off, probably needed the run on first outing since leaving Charlie Fellowes when fifth at Salisbury just over 3 weeks ago. Likeable type who makes appeal back up in trip.

1 1st (4) (4/1 +53%) Enfranchise	4/1(+53%)	(4) Enfranchise 4/1, Progressive earlier in the year and typically gave her running when third at Sandown (10f, good) 9 days ago. Won here on her second start and upped further in trip, she's not without hope.
2 2nd (5) (5.5/1 -22%) Approachability	5.5/1(-22%)	(5) Approachability 5.5/1, Scored on debut here before taking his form up a notch when clear second of 6 in Nottingham minor event. Restless in the stalls and offered little after 8 months off when down the field on handicap bow at Epsom 15 days ago but it's too soon to be writing him off.
3 3rd (6) (2.12/1 +23%) Haunted Dream	2.12/1(+23%)	(6) Haunted Dream 2.12/1, Returned in top form this spring, scoring comfortably at Beverley and Lingfield. Good second of 6 at Newmarket next start but possibly found the race coming too soon 3 days later at Ripon. Fancied to go well taking on his elders after a 5 week break.
4 4th (1) (3.33/1 +17%) Fishable	3.33/1(+17%)	(1) Fishable 3.33/1, Had slipped below last winning mark and ran well back down in trip when runner-up at Ripon 5 weeks ago, sticking on resolutely enough when headed under 2f out. Back up in trip today and no surprise to see him in the mix.
5th 5th (2) (10/1 +9%) Cardano	10/1(+9%)	(2) Cardano 10/1, Modest form over hurdles towards the back end of last year and shaped as if needing the run after 5 months off when a well-beaten seventh at Goodwood last month. Worth a second look now back down to his last winning mark. Engaged 2.59 Ayr Saturday.
6th 6th (3) (50/1 +0%) Mythical	50/1(+0%)	(3) Mythical 50/1, Presumably had his problems and probably needed the run on return/yard debut when finishing down the field on handicap debut over C&D 13 days ago. Handicapper dropped him 7 lb for that effort but he's tricky to assess at present.
7th 7th (7) (10/1 -43%) Bamboo Bay	10/1(-43%)	(7) Bamboo Bay 10/1, Took advantage of a drop in the weights to score at Chester 8 days ago, showing a willing attitude to edged ahead post. Has won both times he's worn a tongue strap on the Flat and should be in the mix once again on the back of a 3 lb rise.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (3/1 +10%) Bullet Force	3/1(+10%)	(1) Bullet Force 3/1, Musselburgh maiden winner (7f) as a juvenile who has yet to taste success in handicaps but shaped better than distance beaten suggests when third in first-time visor at Chester (7.5f) last week, staying on having been left poorly placed. Blinkers go on now and he's of interest.
2 2nd (3) (3/1 +45%) Million Thanks	3/1(+45%)	(3) Million Thanks 3/1, Placed both starts as a juvenile and, following a wind op, he showed improved form to make a winning return in a Musselburgh maiden (1m) in May. Good fourth behind the progressive Jimi Hendrix on handicap debut at Haydock since and likely he has more to offer.
3 3rd (9) (5/1 +75%) Forgivable	5/1(+75%)	(9) Forgivable 5/1, Iffraaj gelding who showed fair form in handful of starts as a 2-y-o, keeping on last ½f when fifth in 13-runner York novice (7f) final start in October. Similar form when midfield on return/handicap debut at Doncaster 15 days ago but this mark demands some improvement.
4 4th (8) (40/1 -150%) Albegrey	40/1(-150%)	(8) Albegrey 40/1, Left reappearance effort in his wake when running out a good winner at Ripon (1m) 2 starts back. Not in same form when seventh of 9 at Carlisle (7.8f) 3 weeks later and whilst he remains low-mileage this looks a tougher assignment.
5th 5th (7) (12/1 +0%) Fiftyshadesaresdev	12/1(+0%)	(7) Fiftyshadesaresdev 12/1, Maiden who ran a cracker when just touched off over 7f at York in May and kept on well from 2f out to finish third over C&D 2 weeks ago, despite racing lazily early on. Fitting of cheekpieces a plus on that evidence and not dismissed from this sort of mark.
6th 6th (2) (7/1 -180%) Exminster	7/1(-180%)	(2) Exminster 7/1, Ribchester gelding who has improved for fitting of cheekpieces, runner-up at Haydock prior to tasting success at York (7.8f) last month, showing a good attitude. Tactically versatile and expected to go well again from 6 lb higher mark.
7th 7th (6) (18/1 +10%) Subjective Value	18/1(+10%)	(6) Subjective Value 18/1, Tasted success twice on AW earlier this year and he's performed with credit in defeat since, 5 lengths third of 8 on his latest start at Kempton (1m) in May. Mark looks about right but first-time visor may put an extra edge on him.
8th 8th (5) (9/1 -6%) Aguaplano	9/1(-6%)	(5) Aguaplano 9/1, Put experience to good use when off the mark in a Redcar maiden (1m) in May but did step up again when close second at Doncaster (1m) 2 weeks ago (Tarbaan placed third). Should give another good account.
9th 9th (4) (10/1 -43%) Tarbaan	10/1(-43%)	(4) Tarbaan 10/1, All-weather maiden winner who doubled career-tally on handicap debut at Newmarket (1m) last month and backed that up granted the run of the race when close-up third at Doncaster 2 weeks ago. Nudged up another 2 lb and this looks a little deeper.

18:45 Pontefract Handicap (Class 3) 6f - 16 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (11) (3.33/1 +33%) Ghathanfar	3.33/1(+33%)	(11) Ghathanfar 3.33/1, Capitalised on drop in grade to end losing run at Wetherby (5.5f) in May and has remained in form, runner-up in handicaps at York/Thirsk within the last week. Mark is creeping up but well worthy of consideration in present groove.
2 2nd (8) (6/1 +0%) Dream Composer	6/1(+0%)	(8) Dream Composer 6/1, 4-y-o who arrives here in rude health, overcoming a wide trip to resume winning ways over C&D in May and following up by a narrow margin at Goodwood (6f) 14 days ago. Expected to be firmly in the mix up 3 lb from good draw in stall 1.
3 3rd (4) (5/1 +50%) Il Bandito	5/1(+50%)	(4) Il Bandito 5/1, Ran well when third on return/yard debut in a strong Redcar handicap (1m) in April and built on that subsequently, taking 7f handicaps at that venue/York since. Assessor applies more pressure but possibilities again for up and coming trainer.
4 4th (14) (4.5/1 +0%) Corinthia Knight	4.5/1(+0%)	(14) Corinthia Knight 4.5/1, 7-y-o who took his course record to 4-5 in refitted cheekpieces over C&D 2 weeks ago, finding extra late on to prevail from a career-low mark. Very promising rider's claim more than offsets weight rise and he has to be worth a look again from handy draw.
5th 5th (16) (18/1 -13%) Golden Apollo	18/1(-13%)	(16) Golden Apollo 18/1, Winless since taking the Ayr Silver Cup back in 2019 but mark reflects that and he ran best race of the season when fourth in big-field York handicap over this trip 8 days ago. Cannot be discounted from this mark but he's clearly not one for maximum faith.
6th 6th (10) (40/1 -21%) Recall The Show	40/1(-21%)	(10) Recall The Show 40/1, Southwell winner in February and stepped up on that when runner-up in irst-time blinkers at Doncaster (6f) 2 starts back (Aberama Gold third). Not in same form at York 8 days ago and others make more appeal on balance.
7th 7th (13) (20/1 -11%) Manigordo	20/1(-11%)	(13) Manigordo 20/1, Drawn a blank since Thirsk win last April but he got back to somewhere near his recent best given a ground-saving ride towards inside rail when third at Chester (6f) 8 days ago, staying on to take a place close home. Each-way possibilities.
8th 8th (7) (9/1 +25%) Aberama Gold	9/1(+25%)	(7) Aberama Gold 9/1, Losing run stretches back to late 2020 but fallen plenty in weights and shaping up well in sprint handicaps of late, third behind an unexposed sort at Doncaster (6f) last time. Handy draw to operate from and good showing anticipated.
9th 9th (9) (11/1 -38%) Music Society	11/1(-38%)	(9) Music Society 11/1, C&D winner who ran well from his much-reduced mark when second at Haydock (6f) in May and capitalised on ease in class to land 6-runner Catterick handicap early on this month. Remains with handicapping scope and respected.
10th 10th (3) (12/1 +0%) Bergerac	12/1(+0%)	(3) Bergerac 12/1, C&D winner last spring who added to his tally at York (6f) in September. Solid start to the campaign when placed on first 3 starts in sprint handicaps and seemed uncomfortable with the pace when eighth at Epsom (6f) latest. No forlorn hope.
11th 11th (1) (10/1 -25%) Eilean Dubh	10/1(-25%)	(1) Eilean Dubh 10/1, Has made a fine start for his new yard, already boasting back-to-back Sky Bet series races over longer trips, running out a convincing winner at York (7.8f) latterly in May. 6 lb higher mark looks workable but he's the widest draw to operate from dropping down in trip.
12th 12th (2) (50/1 -52%) Margub	50/1(-52%)	(2) Margub 50/1, All 4 career victories have come on AW, the latest with a bit to spare at Wolverhampton (7f) in April. Failed to settle when last of 7 at Goodwood next time but he again ran below form at Chelmsford on Thursday. Others more persuasive.
13th 13th (15) (25/1 +29%) Lezardrieux	25/1(+29%)	(15) Lezardrieux 25/1, Runner-up over C&D prior to landing handicaps at Catterick/Haydock last summer (including race in this series). Seemingly regaining full fitness in couple of outings this term and worth noting he's now operating below his last winning mark.
14th 14th (6) (28/1 +0%) Paws For Thought	28/1(+0%)	(6) Paws For Thought 28/1, Three-time winner for Tom Dascombe who went agonisingly close to making it first time lucky for new yard on return at Chester (7f) in May. Not in same form at Haydock later that month, though and he remains 2 lb above last winning mark.
15th 15th (17) (50/1 +24%) Dark Shot	50/1(+24%)	(17) Dark Shot 50/1, Won twice at Catterick (both at 6f) last autumn but essentially just ticking over so far this campaign and he ran below his best when seventeenth of 21 at York (6f) 8 days ago, ridden before halfway and never involved. Likely to find a few too good.
16th 16th (12) (80/1 -60%) Tashgheel	80/1(-60%)	(12) Tashgheel 80/1, 4-y-o who ended time with Dermot Weld with success in a Listowel maiden (6.2f) 12 months ago. More miss than hit in handful of starts for present yard thereafter and the betting may well prove the best guide on return to action.

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.
