Graffiti made a pleasing return to this sphere when filling the runner-up spot in his grade at Fontwell in August, but this step up in distance is a slight concern. With that in mind, JACK THE SAVAGE gets the nod. Laura Horsfall's seven-year-old was far from disgraced in second at Hereford earlier in the month and goes off an unchanged mark. With a repeat of that performance, he could prove tough to beat. Well Done Dani is another to consider.

LASER FOCUS came down early on the level at Fakenham a fortnight ago and is worth another chance as he surely has a race over hurdles in him. Jack The Savage is a player, while a revival from Poker Master back at the scene of his best days could be on the cards.

Course winner JACK THE SAVAGE returns here after running well in defeat at Hereford last week and might be the answer.
Class & Speed Card

COOL PARK has been placed on both hurdle starts this year and beat all bar the odds-on Savante over this trip at Tramore last time. The daughter of Walk In The Park has scope for further improvement and gets the vote here at the main expense of Fillusin. Gordon Elliott's charge won a bumper at Tramore earlier this year and has also been placed on both her hurdle starts including behind the progressive Sansrisk over 2m here last month. Amboyna also gained a bumper win at Tramore and is another to consider on her hurdling debut while Beautiful Chaos, Party Dress and point-to-point winner Mayo Shirocco are others to note.

COOL PARK needs to settle down but has essentially made an encouraging start over hurdles and can strike here. Fillusin looks the danger, with Amboyna and recent point winner Mayo Shirocco completing the shortlist.

This longer trip should help to bring out the best in FILLUSIN who chased home the two market leaders over 2m at Galway last month
Class & Speed Card

D'JO DELA BARRIERE sets the standard and has been found a good opportunity to make his experience count on just his third start under Rules. Bits N Pieces was green when fourth in a selling hurdle at Stratford last month and can figure with a step forward here. New Man appeals on pedigree and warrants a market inspection on his racecourse bow.

D'JO DELA BARRIERE probably needed the run starting out for Evan Williams after 6 months off at Chepstow and with this race lacking the same depth he looks the way to go. New Man and Brave Move certainly aren't overfaced for their first go over hurdles and wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to have a say.

Preference is for D'JO DELA BARRIERE who is capable of better than he was able to demonstrate on stable debut at Chepstow.
Class & Speed Card

Global Esteem was well held in third at Ludlow last month, but he takes a drop in grade which can see him get closer. Even so, STAR LEGEND looks the one to be on. James Owen's five-year-old finished a fair fourth at Stratford when last seen in this sphere in July and goes off the same mark. It would be no surprise to see him regain the winning thread, while Stormin Crossgales is another to note.

GLOBAL ESTEEM is quite classy for this level and is the one to beat. The Pogsons' have turned around a few from other yards this season and their new recruit Stormin Crossgales might give the selection most to think about.

Keen-going front-runners Global Esteem and Stormin Crossgales might combine to set this race up nicely for STAR LEGEND.
Class & Speed Card

No No Fizz failed to justify favouritism when only managing fourth on her first start for the Fergal O'Brien stable at Hereford last month, but she might be worth another chance. Even so, it may pay to side with PENNSYLVANIE, who finished third at Fontwell recently and shaped as if this drop in distance would be a good move. The daughter of Kayf Tara competes off a 1lb lower rating and could strike in first-time blinkers. Simply Gorgeous completes the shortlist.

A chance is taken on JACKELINE, who predictably bombed out when tried over 2¾m on her reappearance at Stratford but she is interesting judged on her latest effort over this trip at Chepstow where she was third in a decent novice event during the spring. Pennsylvanie and No No Fizz are both likely to benefit from this drop back in trip, too, and they rate the main dangers. That said, cases can also be made for the other three in this trappy contest.

Dropping back in trip could unlock the door for the free-going NO NO FIZZ, who is preferred to Pennsylvanie.
Class & Speed Card

FOLLY BEACH won a 1m7f handicap on the Flat last year and the dual-purpose mare has been generally consistent under both codes since. She had Cougar six lengths behind when fourth to Slieve Carran over an extended 2m6f at Punchestown last time. Goodie Girl overcame a year's absence when successful over 2m2f here last month and rates a threat having also shown decent form over further last year. Fathom Two was soundly beaten over fences this season but gave some encouragement last time when staying on well in a 2m4f Listowel hurdle, while Lightkeeper won a maiden at the Galway Festival but needs to bounce back after disappointing subsequently at Tramore.

Lots with chances but FOLLY BEACH has gone with some promise of late and is able to race off the same mark as when fourth in a big-field Punchestown handicap last time out so gets the vote. Workforadime should benefit from this step up in trip and heads the list of dangers, with Warmer Days Ahead, Goodie Girl and Arabian King all in the picture too.

Having returned from a break in fine form here last month, GOODIE GIRL can back up that win now upped in trip off an 8lb higher mark
Class & Speed Card

Having joined her current connections for 60,000gns after just one start over an extended 7f on the Flat in France, Matwana is an intriguing proposition on her NH debut even though her pedigree leans more towards speed than stamina. However, MIDNIGHT EXIT has shown ability over hurdles in France and could be tough to deaL with. Window Of Time appeals more than Serendipitous Lady based on the evidence available so far.

French-runner MIDNIGHT EXIT is worth another chance having beaten a now 136-rated filly first time up in the summer. She struggled in a deeper race at Auteuil more recently but this looks easier. Harry Derham's Matwana has solid credentials starting out in this sphere and is the obvious danger.

The intriguing one is MATWANA who should appreciate the underfoot conditions and could possess the ability to score on her hurdle debut
Class & Speed Card

SUPER CITIZEN did well to get as close as he did when finishing second at Kelso in May. Lucinda Hughes' veteran has Brian Hughes booked on this occasion and he could prove hard to beat. The Wolf hit the woodwork in this grade at Southwell in June and could get into contention, while Special Acceptance is another to take seriously after his second at Uttoxeter last month.

SPECIAL ACCEPTANCE rates the pick of the weights on the back of a very good Uttoxeter second for his new yard last month so looks the way to go. Innisfree Lad has been given some respite by the official assessor and is next on the list, with Super Citizen also in the mix with Brian Hughes now in the saddle.

Clear second to a heavily backed chasing debutant last month, SPECIAL ACCEPTANCE can go one better off the same mark here.
Class & Speed Card

Hurlerontheditch occupied the runner-up berth in a bunch finish over 2m5f at Wetherby last month and is likely to be thereabouts off 1lb higher. However, REALISATION looks the way to go. Charlie Longsdon's six-year-old made the frame on her chase debut at Warwick last month and the handicapper only put her up 1lb for that performance. Harry Cobden is an eye-catching jockey booking and she looks the one to beat. Awaythelad is worth a market check on his first start over fences.

REALISATION shaped well on her chasing bow when third at Warwick and with that form having been franked she earns the vote in a very open-looking handicap. Hurlerontheditch showed the benefit of a breathing op when a good Wetherby second last time out and heads the list of dangers, although the likes of Cat Tiger, Awaythelad, Belargus and Tactical Affair all command plenty of respect too.

This can go to REALISATION (nap), who made a very promising seasonal/chase debut last month.
Class & Speed Card

STELLAR STORY was a smart staying novice hurdler last season and is an exciting recruit to fences. The point-to-point winner was placed twice in Grade 2 company including over this trip before enjoying his finest hour to date when recording a 33/1 surprise in the Albert Bartlett Novices' Hurdle at the Cheltenham Festival. Gordon Elliott also saddles Will Do who won twice in staying hurdles last year and has been placed on both chase starts over 2m2f at Galway this term. Native Speaker also enjoyed a test of stamina over hurdles winning a 3m1f Kilbeggan maiden this summer, but the point winner disappointed when switched to fences at Sligo last time.

Gordon Elliott introduced Gerri Colombe to fences in this race 2 years ago and Albert Bartlett winner STELLAR STORY also has the potential to go to the top over the larger obstacles. The same connections' Will Do is the obvious one to follow him home.

Hard to look beyond Albert Bartlett winner STELLAR STORY, a brother to the yard's very smart chaser The Storyteller
Class & Speed Card

MISTYMAL saw the trip out well to justify favouritism over C&D on his chasing debut last month and should have plenty more to offer. A 4lb higher mark is far from insurmountable in this company and back-to-back wins could be imminent for the Tim Vaughan-trained gelding. Fellow last-time-out winner Pawpaw is a serious threat under a 7lb penalty for last Friday's 3m2f success at Fontwell, although Ballynaheer has shown promise over fences and also warrants consideration.

An open handicap in which preference is for BALLYNAHEER who has shaped well on both his starts to date over fences under patient tactics and looks to have a fair bit more to offer. C&D scorer Mistymal also has better days ahead of him and is next on the list ahead of the handily-weighted Best Mate Dave and newcomers Faded Fantasy and Blackacre.

Mistymal needs respecting off a 4lb rise for his recent C&D win but marginal preference is for BALLYNAHEER.
Class & Speed Card

LELOOPA impressed when scoring with the minimum of fuss over 2m at Hereford last month, and she should prove tough to stop with a reproduction of that effort. Granny B remains unexposed over hurdles and is expected to better her sixth over 2m at Ludlow last month. Fifth behind the selection last time out, A Little Something will need to find more.

LELOOPA is presented with a golden opportunity to add to last month's breakthrough success at Hereford. The one for the forecast may be Nobody's Perfect, though Granny B is also a candidate for minor honours.

This looks another good opportunity for LELOOPA, who made all in a Hereford maiden last month.
Class & Speed Card

CENTREOFATTENTION struck on his bumper debut at Wincanton in January and he now makes his first start over hurdles. Nicky Henderson's five-year-old can put these to the sword for his powerful connections. Metkayina finished a respectable fourth in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree in April and has to be taken seriously on her first start over hurdles, while Ken Roy is another to keep an eye on.

An interesting novice hurdle featuring several likely types, none more so than METKAYINA, who was last seen finishing fourth in a Grade 2 bumper at Aintree in April. Centreofattention was a winning favourite in his sole bumper and is second choice ahead of Joe Tizzard's Not So Woolly, whose hurdle debut form received a boost over the weekend.

Metkayina is the pick on bumper form but could still be vulernable to CENTREOFATTENTION, Ken Roy and It's Hard To Know.
Class & Speed Card

The C&D victory of MULLAGHMORE WAVE last week looks a key piece of form with two of his rivals on that occasion again in opposition. The John McConnell-trained gelding was placed twice in similar events at Downpatrick this autumn and was probably value for a bit more than the winning margin last time after appearing to idle in front. He meets runner-up General Hubble, who is 6lb out of the handicap proper, on slightly better terms and the booking of Derek O'Connor adds to confidence. Definiteadare was beaten about five lengths in fourth but didn't enjoy the clearest of passages in the straight. Tullyveery Lad won his latest chase start at Downpatrick while Toofareastiswest was probably unsuited by soft ground at Galway last time.

GENERAL HUBBLE finished strongly when beaten a ½ length by Mullaghmore Wave here last Monday and is taken to turn the tables on John McConnell's charge on the revised terms.

Derek O'Connor's mount MULLAGHmORE WAVE has a good chance of upholding last week's form with General Hubble on these terms.
Class & Speed Card

Superbolt has taken the silver medal home on both starts for the Nigel Twiston-Daives stable and should remain competitive off 3lb higher than his latest effort at Ludlow. However, the vote goes to MAHLER MOON, who was third at Southwell last month and was dropped 2lb for that effort. With Jack Hogan claiming a handy 3lb this time, he could be the one to beat. Fat Sam completes the shortlist

SUPERBOLT had the rest well beaten off when a promising second to the in-form Nickelforce on his chase debut at Ludlow and, with the likelihood of better to come from this 4-y-o, he will take plenty of stopping. Mahler Moon is also open to improvement in this sphere and is feared most ahead of last-time-out C&D winner Moodofthemoment.

A tricky race with C&D winner Moodofthemoment, Fat Sam and the 4yo SUPERBOLT all arriving in peak form.
Class & Speed Card

CAMINO ROCIO appeared to appreciate the application of a visor (retained) when running out a ready winner over 2m4f at Wincanton last month, and the suspicion is that a 7lb rise may not be enough to anchor him. Lunar Ocean shaped with plenty of credit when finishing runner-up on his chasing debut over 2m3f at Market Rasen recently and he must enter calculations off an unchanged mark. My Mate Polly is also noteworthy.

If CAMINO ROCIO is in a similar mood as when landing a gamble at Wincanton on debut for this yard 16 days ago he will prove a tough nut to crack. My Mate Polly and Lunar Ocean both performed with credit on their chase debuts and are feared most in that order of preference.

This can go to CAMINO ROCIO (nap), who dominated a fairly competitive race for the grade on his recent stable debut.
Class & Speed Card

Phillip Hobbs & Johnson White have their string in fine form at present, and HIGH GAME ROYAL gets the vote to land the spoils. He pulled clear with the eventual winner when runner-up on his seasonal reappearance over 2m7f at Exeter last month and a 4lb rise may underestimate him. Chloe's Court ended last term with an impressive victory over 3m at Wincanton and she commands respect off 4lb higher, while Spike Jones is noted sporting cheekpieces for the first time.

HIGH GAME ROYAL gets the vote on the back of an encouraging return to action at Exeter, with the main threat likely to come from Chloe's Court, who was successful on last season's reappearance.

Jatiluwih has the least to prove on good ground but stablemate HIGH GAME ROYAL gets the vote ahead of Chloe's Court.
Class & Speed Card

BALLYPHILIP clocked up five consecutive point-to-point victories before delivering in a hunters chase at Down Royal in May. He has a good chance of bringing the seven up as this drying ground won't inconvenience him. Dromleigh has to be respected in receipt of 12lb from Ballyphilip. He is another returning to the fray and wasn't beaten in third when falling at the penultimate fence in a Tramore hunters chase in April. The 10-year-old Ask D' Man certainly knows where the winning post is and has given good service to David Christie. Dento Des Obeaux was good enough to finish sixth in the Foxhunters at Aintree in April last year. He has been off since pulling up at Downpatrick the following month, though.

BALLYPHILIP won a Down Royal hunter when last seen under Rules and has been excellent in points, so he's marginally preferred to Dromleigh who produced several good efforts in hunters last season. Dento Des Obeaux is another one to consider.

Despite a modest strike rate over racecourse fences, ER DANCER has plenty going for him including race-fitness.
Class & Speed Card

Melton Mossy just prevailed by a neck in a stronger event than this at Ludlow five days ago and holds an obvious chance, despite a 7lb penalty. However, he might come out second best to KARAKORAM, who returned from a break to score in decisive style over 3m at the same venue on his latest outing. The nine-year-old only has a 6lb higher rating to contend with and could complete a double. Ted's Friend is another to note.

TED'S FRIEND looks to be building up to something and gets the vote for Fergal O'Brien. The thriving Melton Mossy rates an obvious threat, while also don't be surprised to see State of Fame leave the form of his first outing for Tom Lacey behind now stepping back up in trip.

Ted's Friend is respected but winning pointer STATE OF FAME shaped promisingly over a trip short of his best on stable debut.
Class & Speed Card

NORMAN FLETCHER was narrowly denied under this rider when he returned from a break with a good second-placed finish at Cheltenham last month and must have every chance of going one better this time. Black Hawk Eagle has a similar profile to the selection and is another must for consideration, while Klitschko is respected off a competitive mark on his debut for a new yard.

NORMAN FLETCHER resumed progress when an excellent second at Cheltenham 18 days ago and he should be up to going one better in this lesser contest. Black Hawk Eagle is the main danger and Klitschko is worth a market check starting out for a new yard.

Black Hawk Eagle and NORMAN FLETCHER both ran well in competitive handicaps on their seasonal debuts and may fight this out.
Class & Speed Card

VISION DE MAINE readily justified strong market support on his chasing debut over 3m at Uttoxeter last month, and it would be no surprise if he were able to shoulder a 7lb rise for the in-form David Pipe team here. Caeruleum wasn't disgraced when third over 3m2f at Fontwell recently and he looks the main danger to the selection. Kap Chidley is also respected on his seasonal reappearance.

VISION DE MAINE looked one to keep firmly on side when making a successful start over fences at Uttoxeter on his return and can win again. Caeruleum is feared most ahead of Kap Chidley.

Irish point winner Ballygelly looks ripe for an improved run but VISION DE MAINE is open to improvement after a winning chase debut.
Class & Speed Card

WALK IN TIME has been lightly raced this year, but signalled a return to form in second at Galway last month (in a first-time tongue-strap which is retained). This trip is probably as short as she wants, but this isn't a deep race by any means. Nells Choice put in her best performance to date when runner-up in a Limerick maiden hurdle in October, so ought to be a contender on the back of that run. Tomas O Maille is a long-standing maiden, but has been placed in his last two handicap chases and has a shot reverting to hurdling. Stellar Symphony is capable of banking a cheque, while Stowaway Lass could have a say.

USETA LOVER appears to have been brought along with handicaps in mind and, now pitched into one off a realistic-looking opening mark, he will be of strong interest if the market vibes are upbeat. Stowaway Lass is second choice ahead of Walk In Time, while Nells Choice, Oogum Boogum and Tomas O Maille are others to consider.

The vote goes to NELLS CHOICE who ran her best race so far when second at Limerick last time. An obvious danger is Walk In Time
Class & Speed Card

OUR DYLAN would have finished closer to the eventual winner but for being hampered at a crucial stage when third over an extended 2m2f at Newton Abbot when last seen. Off an unchanged mark, he gets the vote to go two places better on his return to action. Runner-up at Stratford on his most recent start, Jazz King can emerge as the main danger off what looks a manageable mark, while Coup De Gold is also respected with match-fitness on his side.

With the Alastair Ralph stable among the winners a chance is taken on JAZZ KING, who potentially has a bit of class for this level. Our Dylan was in fine form when last seen and is second choice ahead of Coup de Gold. Ikigai Star would also firmly enter the reckoning if showing up after/instead of Kempton on Monday.

Topweight JAZZ KING (nap) was a good second in a novice hurdle at Stratford when last seen and earns the vote now back in a handicap.
Class & Speed Card

The gutsy winner of a similar event over this C&D last month, NOBLE MISS showed a good attitude when popped a question and that attribute can stand her in good stead under a penalty. Given that Playaway Girl and Gaelic Choir need to improve, perhaps Jamie Snowden's newcomer Lady Tadita, who is a half-sister to a bumper winner, can give the selection the most think about.

LADY TADITA represents a stable going well and should have enough pace for this sort of test, so a chance is taken on her to make a winning start. Recent C&D winner Noble Miss is an obvious player and Do Wah Diddy can play a part.

Rae Guest's filly NOBLE MISS has a penalty to shoulder but she won a shade cosily over C&D last month and might be up to the task.
Class & Speed Card

BELLES BENEFIT impressed when scoring with the minimum of fuss over 3m1f at Plumpton last month and, upped 6lb, she looks capable of bringing up a double here. Fellow last-time-out winner Golden Ambition looks the main danger to the selection, although a 7lb rise asks a question of him, while Weaver's Answer should appreciate this step back up in trip and is respected most of the remainder.

GOLDEN AMBITION is going well in blinkers and is fancied to supplement his Fontwell win with the step up in trip likely to bring even more out of him. Twp Stori is a danger returning to a more suitable distance and Saunton Surf may have more to offer this term.

Easily the most convincing candidates are GOLDEN AMBITION and Belles Benefit, both of them winners in clearcut style last month.
Class & Speed Card

Gordon Elliott has landed the last two renewals of this race and AMERICAN JUKEBOX, who is a half-brother to the stable's smart American Mike, is one to take seriously on track debut. He ran well for a long way before finishing runner-up in his sole point-to-point in May for Donnchadh Doyle. Willie Mullins supplies Full Confession who won his point-to-point by a head in April for Michael Ryan. He is a significant threat. Pat Doyle introduces Walk In The Park gelding Trasna Na Pairce who is related to plenty of winners, so he is well worth a market check.

FULL CONDESSION and American Juke represent top stables and are fancied to dominate this contest, with the former preferred based on his speedier pedigree. Trasna Na Pairce is another one to consider.

AMERICAN JUKEBOX, a half-brother to American Mike, gets the nod over the Mullins' runner Full Confession
Class & Speed Card

Those with experience under Rules don't appear to set a lofty standard, and it may pay to side with the newcomer WHAT U WANNA DO IS. James Owen has his string in fine form at present, and this 35,000-euro daughter of Flemensfirth can play a leading part in what looks an ordinary contest on her debut. Presenting Milan wasn't disgraced when third in a Worcester bumper in September and could put up the most resistance to the selection, while Desert Guest is also noteworthy, especially if the market speaks favourably.

WHAT U WANNA DO IS has a relation who won a bumper and represents a thriving stable, so she's preferred to Presenting Milan, who has shown a reasonable level of form in placing on both starts to date. Desert Guest is another notable newcomer.

The newcomer WHAT U WANNA DO IS looks the part on paper and represents an up-and-coming yard.
Class & Speed Card

Jack Doughty still being able to claim 3lb is a persuasive factor as he teams up with ALEX THE GREAT. Now under the tutelage of the shrewd and in-form Tony Carroll, the four-year-old's chance is compelling on just his third attempt over 1m6f. Blenheim Lad is respected bidding for a third consecutive C&D win. The selection's stable companion Gentle Fire is also noted on debut for the yard.

BLENHEIM LAD is on a roll and can make it 3-3 over C&D. Alex The Great is interesting on his second start for Tony Carroll, while Shaad is a potential improver now starting out for James Owen.

The majority have questions to answer and BLENHEIM LAD has less to prove than any as he goes for a C&D hat-trick.
Class & Speed Card

WHIZZ BY finished full running when she made a winning nursery debut over this C&D 19 days ago and, as the only previous winner in the race, she has to be of high interest with a 7lb higher mark still potentially underestimating her potential. Sherlock is feared most after a creditable third-placed finish at Newcastle a fortnight ago, while We've Got This and Zadkiel can make an impact too.

Quite a competitive nursery but WHIZZ BY was well on top when opening her account on her first crack handicapping here 3 weeks ago and can follow up. Sherlock, Zadkiel and We've Got This are among the other key players.

The pick is SHERLOCK, who encountered some traffic when third on his nursery debut a fortnight ago and drops from 0-75 grade today.
Class & Speed Card

NOVAK runs for a yard which enjoyed three winners last week and the five-year-old, who has flourished when teamed up with Archie Young in the saddle of late, should go well off a competitive mark and from a handy draw. Monopolise, who tends to go well for Billy Loughnane, needs considering despite a 5lb penalty for last week's success over 1m at Kempton. Dynamic Talent and Royal Parade complete the shortlist.

Having slipped in the weights, MONOPOLISE bounced back to score easily at Kempton recently and he's worth a chance to go in again under a penalty. Novak arrives in top form and should also feature, while Dynamic Talent can play a part if he avoids another sluggish start.

A touch unlucky not to make it 2-2 for Archie Young over C&D last Thursday, NOVAK looks the most solid option.
Class & Speed Card

NAZUKI shaped with bundles of promise when filling the runner-up spot on her debut over track and trip last month and she is likely to take a big step forward from that effort. The daughter of Earthlight looks to have been found a good opportunity and can find normal improvement to get off the mark. Cressida Wildes sets the standard with a rating of 82 on her first start for the Phil McEntee stable and could find more in first-time cheekpieces. Newcomer Nakaaha needs to be monitored in the market.

NAZUKI showed enough promise on debut to think she can improve past form-pick Cressida Wildes. Nakaaha is another newcomer to keep an eye on in the market.

The experienced Cressida Wildes sets the standard, but NAZUKI isn't far behind on her C&D debut second and should improve.
Class & Speed Card

Dutch Kingdom struck in pleasing style at Chelmsford on his latest outing, which made it two wins from his last three starts, and he should go well off a 6lb higher rating. However, SECRET GUEST gets the nod. Bryan Smart's four-year-old can be forgiven for his poor effort when well beaten at York last time, due to suffering interference at a crucial stage. He is better judged on his second at Ripon prior to that and could prove hard to beat. Tan Rapido is another to watch out for.

Quite a useful handicap, with Jack Channon's CAJETAN taken to resume his progression back on AW. Fellow 3-y-o City House is feared most ahead of Secret Guest, who has an excuse at York last time and had been in cracking form prior to that. Tan Rapido is drawn wider than ideal but is another 3-y-o in this line-up who may have more to offer.

This looks warm but DUTCH KINGDOM (nap) is thriving and could yet rate higher. City House and Mojomaker are feared most.
Class & Speed Card

QAZAQ has made a strong impression in his young career so far with two impressive victories at Chelmsford and Kempton. The son of Kingman now tackles handicaps for the first time and, with any amount of improvement to come, he can defy his opening rating of 89. Magnum Opus finished fifth in a hot handicap at Doncaster in September and should go well, while Lion Of War could also have a say after his third at Kempton.

It's hard to resist QAZAQ, for all that he will likely be plenty short enough in the betting for this handicap debut. Indeed, he is bred in the purple and has looked a good prospect when winning 7f novice events at Chelmsford and Kempton, leaving the strong impression that there is plenty more to come. Rhythm Master resumes on the all-weather on a potentially very handy mark and is next on the list, while the in-form Chalk Mountain and Magnum Opus are others for the shortlist.

The vote goes to four-time course winner ELIGIBLE who has dropped 8lb lower than when winning over C&D in January.
Class & Speed Card

A competitive sprint handicap for punters to solve and just a tentative vote is for WHATS IN THE BAG, who performed well on soft Yarmouth ground three weeks ago when third and is entitled to have improved for that comeback spin. There are four last-start scorers in opposition, though, and Spirit Of Applause is a big player given he's holding his form really well at present. You can throw Thankuappreciate and Sugar Hill Babe into the mix as well.

Not many of these can be ruled out with any great confidence. SUGAR HILL BABE produced her best effort yet when coming from off the pace to beat Paddy's Day over C&D last month. She is taken to uphold the form with the runner-up, despite being 4 lb worse off this time. Dashing Harry struck at Kempton last month and is also accorded respect, along with another pair who occupied the first two positions in a C&D handicap recently, namely Thankuappreciate and Juicy.

Related to Tapeta winners, WHATS IN THE BAG ran with promise back from a long absence recently. Thankuappreciate is second choice.
Class & Speed Card

There are a couple of interesting three-year-olds going to post and Thrilling Dream could go well now tried in a first-time visor. It's Jedd O'Keeffe's SOMETHING who is preferred, though, as he's impressed at Newcastle the last twice and should be fine going up to this trip. Of the older horses, Nibiru must be taken seriously following his determined Dundalk triumph.

While this is a stronger handicap than those that SOMETHING has landed at Newcastle on his last two starts. he is clearly thriving and, with the possibility of even better to come now moving back up in trip, he is taken to complete the hat-trick. Great Bedwyn and Heathen are taken to fill the places.

Thrilling Dream and Great Bedwyn can go well but SOMETHING can cope with another rise in the weights and grade.

This is the 16:15 Kempton race from the video above backed at 28/1 earlier in the day.
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.
