2	5 2nd (5) (8/11 +42%) Bathgate	0.727273 8/11(+42%)	(5) Bathgate 8/11 Clear second at Sedgefield recently and reappears before a 6lb rise kicks in.
3	4 3rd (4) (4/1 -191%) Uhtred Ragnarson	4 4/1(-191%)	(4) Uhtred Ragnarson 4/1 Ready win at Warwick last month after a break; strong claims if handling slower ground.

UHTRED RAGNARSON comfortably accounted for his nearest rival by four and a half lengths at Warwick last month and a 7lb rise might underestimate that effort. On just his third outing in a handicap, the son of Holy Roman Emperor could progress to go in again. Bathgate occupied the runner-up berth at Sedgefield on his latest outing and is likely to go well again with the Philip Kirby yard in good form. Wind Your Neck In is another to note.

Having returned to form with a clear second at Sedgefield ten days ago, BATHGATE (nap) is 6lb ahead of the handicapper today.

2	6 2nd (6) (3/1 -20%) Shotgun Rider	3 3/1(-20%)	(6) Shotgun Rider 3/1 Rallied to win Irish point and sold for £155,000 later in May; interesting.

Point-to-point winner Shotgun Rider changed hands for 155,000 pounds in May and warrants a market check on his debut under Rules, along with the Olly Murphy-trained Ubatuba. However, CHOICE RUNNER finished a respectable second over 2m at Uttoxeter last month, shaping as if he would relish this step back up in trip. With any improvement, he could prove tough to beat.

The suggestion is CHOICE RUNNER. Rules debutants Shotgun Rider and Ubatuba bring potential.

12:40 Wincanton (Class 5) 19f - 3 Run Class & Speed Card

Info	Form	Odds	Comments
1	3 1st (3) (6/4 +67%) Hidor De Bersy	1.5 6/4(+67%)	(3) Hidor De Bersy 6/4 Seen only twice under rules since 2023 but showed he retains some ability last time.
2	4 2nd (4) (1/1 +27%) Western Soldier	1 1/1(+27%)	(4) Western Soldier 1/1 1m7f success at Wincanton two weeks ago; respected, assuming he stays this longer trip.
3	1 3rd (1) (9/2 +0%) Bongo Man	4.5 9/2(+0%)	(1) Bongo Man 9/2 Bred to be suited by this new trip but has raced freely over 2m; handicap debut.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,

WESTERN SOLDIER made his second outing for the Seamus Mullins stable a winning one at this venue last month and this step up in distance could unlock further improvement, so he looks the one to beat. Roadshow failed to supplement his Sedgefield triumph when well beaten at Kempton in October, but he should not be discounted. Hidor De Bersy can beat Bongo Man home for third.

Hidor De Bersy (second choice) has the least to prove as regards the trip but WESTERN SOLDIER is preferred on recent form.

2	7 2nd (7) (2/1 +0%) Private Dancer	2 2/1(+0%)	(7) Private Dancer 2/1 Placed on both French Flat starts and has joined a top stable to go hurdling.
3	4 3rd (4) (17/2 +29%) Lights Go Down	8.5 17/2(+29%)	(4) Lights Go Down 17/2 Well backed when second of five on hurdle debut at Sedgefield; open to improvement.
4	1 4th (1) (9/1 -170%) Mojito Des Mottes	9 9/1(-170%)	(1) Mojito Des Mottes 9/1 1-1 in France; underwhelming on British debut but could be a different proposition today.
5th	2 5th (2) (10/1 -54%) Bouquet De Paris	10 10/1(-54%)	(2) Bouquet De Paris 10/1 Promise on sole Flat start but well beaten at 25-1 on his hurdle and stable debut.
6th	8 6th (8) (28/1 +30%) Appleblossomwhite	28 28/1(+30%)	(8) Appleblossomwhite 28/1 Two-time Flat winner but at an ordinary level; early unseat in July on sole hurdle start.
7th	3 7th (3) (33/1 +0%) Division Day	33 33/1(+0%)	(3) Division Day 33/1 Early unseat on hurdle debut but dam was a Listed juvenile hurdle winner for connections.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

Lights Go Down only found one too good on his hurdling debut at Sedgefield, but the one that appeals most is MOJITO DES MOTTES. Ben Pauling's charge was well beaten into second behind a promising type at Ludlow and would have learnt a great deal from that experience. With any progression, he could be the one to beat. Any market confidence behind Private Dancer on his first start for the Skeltons would be interesting.

Hurdling newcomer PRIVATE DANCER showed promise on the Flat in France and is taken to make a winning start for Dan Skelton.

1	1 1st (1) (11/8 +21%) Roe And Co	1.375 11/8(+21%)	(1) Roe And Co 11/8 Completed a quickfire double last month and is open to further progress.
2	4 2nd (4) (9/1 -64%) Galway Reel	9 9/1(-64%)	(4) Galway Reel 9/1 Won at Market Rasen on penultimate start; disappointing latest.
3	5 3rd (5) (3/1 +45%) Yorgunnabeplucky	3 3/1(+45%)	(5) Yorgunnabeplucky 3/1 Won over 2m on chase debut; not disgraced at 2m6f/2m7f since.
4	3 4th (3) (8/1 -100%) Reforme	8 8/1(-100%)	(3) Reforme 8/1 Off the mark in Fakenham event last time and may build on that win.
5th	2 5th (2) (12/1 -140%) Jackeline	12 12/1(-140%)	(2) Jackeline 12/1 Chase debutant who doesn't seem to be crying out for this trip.
6th	6 6th (6) (11/2 +66%) Grand Sabre	5.5 11/2(+66%)	(6) Grand Sabre 11/2 Has failed to back up the form of his spring success.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

ROE AND CO may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests after idling towards the finish when completing a double at Market Rasen last month. It left the suspicion there is more in the locker and he could go in again for the in-form Jamie Snowden yard. Reforme went in by a length at Fakenham in October and holds an obvious chance off just a 1lb higher rating. Jackeline is next best.

With further improvement plausible, ROE AND CO could well complete a hat-trick. Reforme is feared most.

1	1 1st (1) (1/3 +50%) Milou Du Chenet	0.333333 1/3(+50%)	(1) Milou Du Chenet 1/3 Landed a gamble on his debut when quickening away from his rivals at Bangor last month..
2	3 2nd (3) (9/2 +50%) Mecene	4.5 9/2(+50%)	(3) Mecene 9/2 Yard going well with 11 of last 13 runners making the frame; respected on debut..
3	4 3rd (4) (25/1 -39%) Network Gold	25 25/1(-39%)	(4) Network Gold 25/1 Beaten 29l by Milau Du Chenet when fifth of eight at Bangor on debut last month..

2	2 \|PU\| (2) (28/1 -273%) Callero	28 28/1(-273%)	(2) Callero 28/1 Yard in good form and market will be best guide on racecourse debut..

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

Sixty's Rock is a full-brother to the smart Cheddleton and the son of Shirocco needs to be monitored closely in the betting. However, experience is on the side of MILOU DU CHENET and, for that reason, he gets the vote. Warren Greatrex's gelding struck in ready fashion on his hurdling debut at Bangor last month and is likely to have a lot more to offer. Network Gold isn't ruled out either.

This looks to be a good opportunity for MILOU DU CHENET to record his second win over hurdles. The main danger is Sixty's Rock.

1	2 1st (2) (5/1 +23%) Montemares	5 5/1(+23%)	(2) Montemares 5/1 Won easily when even-money on his debut at Hereford; should have a very bright future.
2	5 2nd (5) (33/1 -18%) Plains Drifter	33 33/1(-18%)	(5) Plains Drifter 33/1 Has shown promise but improvement needed to pose a threat in this useful contest.
3	1 3rd (1) (5/6 -88%) Harry Lowes	0.833333 5/6(-88%)	(1) Harry Lowes 5/6 Point winner who barely had to come off the bridle to win Exeter novice hurdle.
4	4 4th (4) (11/4 +21%) Kefir D'oudairies	2.75 11/4(+21%)	(4) Kefir D'oudairies 11/4 Bumper winner who went close over C&D three weeks ago and could again be in the mix.
5th	3 5th (3) (50/1 -25%) Chemoulin	50 50/1(-25%)	(3) Chemoulin 50/1 £25,000 3yo; makes debut in hot little race and he'll need to be useful; wears tongue-tie.

LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content, hiden content, hiden content

HARRY LOWES created a striking impression when making a winning start under Rules at Exeter and now takes a big step up in trip. With any amount of improvement to come, the son of Walk In The Park can defy his 7lb penalty to go in again. Montemares justified favouritism with ease at Hereford last month and is another exciting prospect, so he would be foolish to dismiss. Kefir D'oudairies looks best of the rest.

An intriguing clash between HARRY LOWES and Montemares, who both impressed last month on their hurdle debuts.

2	3 2nd (3) (7/1 +42%) Cast's Tasha	7 7/1(+42%)	(3) Cast's Tasha 7/1 Scored at Ffos Las on reappearance last term; this may be the time to catch her.
3	2 3rd (2) (3/1 -85%) Hold Up La Colmine	3 3/1(-85%)	(2) Hold Up La Colmine 3/1 Wide-margin win over fences at Windsor on reappearance; great chance off same mark.
4	1 4th (1) (15/2 -25%) Our Bill's Aunt	7.5 15/2(-25%)	(1) Our Bill's Aunt 15/2 On a career-high mark but posted a solid win when last seen and is consistent.
6	6 \|PU\| (6) (6/1 +45%) Lions Peak	6 6/1(+45%)	(6) Lions Peak 6/1 Sole attempt beyond 2m resulted in maiden win (2m3f); may still have more to offer.
5	5 \|PU\| (5) (10/3 +26%) Karton Plein	3.333333 10/3(+26%)	(5) Karton Plein 10/3 Latest effort suggests he's ready for a crack at this longer trip; may do better still.

It's hard to get away from HOLD UP LA COLMINE, who hosed up over fences on his return to action at Windsor last month and if the eight-year-old is in similar form, he could prove hard to beat. Our Bill's Aunt is a C&D winner who was last seen scoring at Wetherby in February and she has to be respected, while One Eye On Vegas is another to take seriously.

Hold Up La Colmine seems to have a good chance back hurdling, while ONE EYE ON VEGAS is solid and Karton Plein is interesting.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 -33%) Livingonaprayer	4 4/1(-33%)	(1) Livingonaprayer 4/1, Improved for debut, stepped up in trip on better ground when winning a novice hurdle at Huntingdon over 2m4f by 4l last time. Trainer in form and effective from 2m to 2m4f, acts on good and soft; the penalty demands more. Stepped up on her debut run at Wetherby in February to win at Huntingdon last month..
2	9 2nd (9) (3/1 -9%) Limerick Lass	3 3/1(-9%)	(9) Limerick Lass 3/1, Improved on debut when tried in a tongue-tie to win a bumper at Chepstow over 2m by 1 1/4l last time. Effective at 2m, acts on soft and good ground, and brings potential to hurdles. Improved on her debut fourth when making all in a Chepstow bumper in April; hurdles debut..
3	8 3rd (8) (8/1 +33%) Indannya	8 8/1(+33%)	(8) Indannya 8/1, Finished third, beaten 4l, in a maiden over 2m4f at Buckfastleigh on debut. This trip should suit and she looks open to improvement now switching to rules racing. Third of six in maiden point over 2m4f on good in March; makes rules debut..
4	11 4th (11) (5/1 -11%) Springtime Legend	5 5/1(-11%)	(11) Springtime Legend 5/1, Outpaced and below form when comfortably held in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Hereford last time. Returning from a long layoff; effective around 2m5f and acts on heavy and soft ground; may need this outing.

5th	6 5th (6) (3/1 +14%) Beauty In The Park	3 3/1(+14%)	(6) Beauty In The Park 3/1, Matched debut form when 9 1/4l third in a maiden bumper over 1m7f here last time.

Showed promise in her two runs in bumpers last term, latest when third here in January..
6th	4 6th (4) (8/1 +60%) Ask Peter	8 8/1(+60%)	(4) Ask Peter 8/1, Ran to form when 2l third in a novice hurdle at Ludlow on her latest start. Enjoys making the running, effective from 2m to 2m5f and acts on heavy and good ground, but may prove vulnerable. Bits of form in five hurdle starts, latest when third of four at Ludlow in October..
7th	7 7th (7) (20/1 -25%) Bee's Kiss	20 20/1(-25%)	(7) Bee's Kiss 20/1, Ran to form when second, beaten 9l, in a point over 3m at Toomebridge last time. This trip should prove a fair starting point under rules and she remains open to improvement. One win from her five starts in Irish points; best watched on rules debut..
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (10/1 +9%) Annie Hathaway	10 10/1(+9%)	(3) Annie Hathaway 10/1, Took a step backwards tried in a hood when down the field in a mares' bumper over 2m at Uttoxeter most recently.

Yet to find suitable conditions over hurdles but should improve with experience. Sixth of seven on belated debut at Uttoxeter last month..

Livingonaprayer got off the mark at Huntingdon last month and has to be considered, but she might find it difficult to give her penalty away to LIMERICK LASS. Anthony Honeyball's mare is a half-sister to Grade 2 winner Allart and progressed from her first bumper outing to score next time at Chepstow. The daughter of Soldier Of Fortune looks one to keep on the right side of and gets the vote. Beauty In The Park is another to watch out for.

In an open contest preference is for BEAUTY IN THE PARK to make a winning hurdles debut. Livingonaprayer is the main danger.

Cheekpieces tried for the first time. Effective from 2m to 2m4f and handles good to soft and good; longer trip may suit now handicapping. Pedigree hints he could be suited by the step up in trip on handicap debut; interesting.
2	1 2nd (1) (4/1 -33%) Harry Bright	4 4/1(-33%)	(1) Harry Bright 4/1, Fair handicap debut when beaten 10l in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Wincanton last time; effective 2m5f, acts on GS; may do better now handicapping. Fifth of 14 over 2m4f on handicap debut; could have more to offer for top yard.
3	4 3rd (4) (9/2 +40%) Mac's Legacy	4.5 9/2(+40%)	(4) Mac's Legacy 9/2, Produced a fair effort after a lengthy absence when third, beaten 9 1/4l, in a 2m4f handicap hurdle at Ffos Las last time. Effective from 2m4f to 3m3f and handles heavy and good to soft; should come on for the run. Third last month following a long absence and the step back up in trip could be a plus.
4	8 4th (8) (13/2 -30%) East Eagle	6.5 13/2(-30%)	(8) East Eagle 13/2, Produced his best form since the spring when beaten 2 1/2l off a mark of 78 over 3m at Southwell last time. Effective at 3m and handles good to soft and good; strong chance if reproducing that effort. Runner-up off this mark at Southwell recently and in the shake-up if backing that up.
5th	3 5th (3) (2/1 +20%) Seahouses	2 2/1(+20%)	(3) Seahouses 2/1, Travelled well and improved when landing a handicap by 6 1/2l off a mark of 87 here last time.

7th	2 7th (2) (50/1 -127%) Nottodaybobo	50 50/1(-127%)	(2) Nottodaybobo 50/1, Pulled up in a 2m1f handicap hurdle at Sedgefield last time. Effective around 2m and handles soft and good ground, but form is regressing. Returned from absence with encouraging stable debut here in July but 3 heavy defeats since.

SEAHOUSES had plenty in hand when winning over C&D three weeks ago and that performance suggests that even a 7lb rise may not be enough to stop him from following up. Mac's Legacy ran well when third on the back of a lengthy break at Ffos Las a month ago and he could prove to be the main threat, ahead of East Eagle.

Donttellyamumjack is an interesting handicap newcomer but SEAHOUSES was an authoritative winner over C&D three weeks ago.

Effective from 2m to 2m5f with some cut in the ground, he is progressing over hurdles and could defy a big weight to outclass these. Leading player on his 2m5f hurdles form; successful in Cheltenham handicap last time.
2	5 2nd (5) (10/1 -25%) Seaview Rock	10 10/1(-25%)	(5) Seaview Rock 10/1, Showed minor promise when third, beaten 1/2l, in a maiden over 2m4f at Ballinaboola on debut. Returns from a long absence with a hood applied for the first time and is hard to fancy. Absent since showing promise in Irish point in February 2024; market helpful.
3	2 3rd (2) (5/1 -25%) North Of Richmond	5 5/1(-25%)	(2) North Of Richmond 5/1, Travelled strongly and made a promising debut when winning a maiden hurdle at Fakenham by 3/4l last time. Effective over 2m and handles soft or good to soft ground. Although his debut form has some knocks, he should progress further and stay beyond 2m. Fakenham reappearance win took his overall record to 2121; solid contender.
4	4 4th (4) (40/1 -21%) Romany King	40 40/1(-21%)	(4) Romany King 40/1, Probably needed the run when finishing down the field in a maiden hurdle over 2m4f at Ffos Las most recently. Wears a tongue-tie for the first time and looks difficult to fancy. Irish point winner; had wind surgery since folding tamely on rules debut.
5th	6 5th (6) (5/2 +17%) Tread Carefully	2.5 5/2(+17%)	(6) Tread Carefully 5/2, Improved from debut when just beaten by a useful rival, finishing second and beaten 3l in a maiden hurdle at Sandown last time. Effective over 2m on good ground, may stay further in time, and receives weight from main rivals while progressing well. Good second in two of his three starts, latest at Sandown; appears to have a race in him.
6th	3 6th (3) (200/1 -100%) Fanny Moon	200 200/1(-100%)	(3) Fanny Moon 200/1, Outpaced but showed improvement from debut when well beaten in a bumper at Worcester last time. Has plenty to find in this company on hurdle debut. Needs to improve plenty on his bumper form.

A PAI DE NOM displayed plenty of promise when winning a very competitive handicap at Cheltenham last month and that form suggests that he could be very hard to beat in a race of this nature. North Of Richmond won at Fakenham last time but that form is not very strong and he may struggle to give 6lb to Tread Carefully in the race for second.

A Pai De Nom drops back sharply in trip but is the form pick. TREAD CAREFULLY and North Of Richmond hold solid claims.

FINAL STRAW is tough to oppose. He has improved no end since going handicapping, winning at Kempton and then Plumpton, and he should have a lot more to offer. West Orchard is interesting on the basis that he's the sole course winner in the field, but he does have a 352-day absence to overcome. Staff Sergeant Len can get involved too.

This looks to be a good opportunity for FINAL STRAW to land the three-timer. Second choice is Atlantic Power.

JUKEBOX D'EDDY has finished second in all of his last four starts and the six-year-old will not find many better opportunities than this to go one better, especially as he may improve in a first-time visor. Ithaka occupied the runner-up berth over hurdles here when last seen in March and has to be noted with Sean Bowen booked. Alltalknoaction arguably has slightly less to prove than Great Name That of the remainder.

The step up in trip could be a positive move for the lightly raced 5yo ALLTALKNOACTION on his second chase start and he earns the vote.

Cases can be made for all of these, but the vote goes to TWO TO TANGO. Emma Lavelle's gelding showed plenty of promise when filling third place on his chasing bow at Wincanton last month and he is entitled to improve for that outing. Iskar D'airy would be a big threat if first-time cheekpieces spark a return to form, while Stroll On By edges out Benmore to be best of the rest.

Consistent TWO TO TANGO (nap) holds very solid claims in this field and is taken to get off the mark. Benmore is second pick.

Course scorer Toothless is a must for the shortlist representing Paul Nicholls, but it's difficult to know what to expect on his return from 571 days off and perhaps the race-fit KALIF D'AIRY is the safer pick on the back of his impressive Lingfield triumph last month. Buoyed by his recent Grade 1 success in the Fighting Fifth, Jeremy Scott saddles two and Pilsdon Pen looks the pick of them under Golden Ace's jockey Lorcan Williams.

The pick is progressive 7yo JOE COTTON, who ran very well in defeat on both outings this autumn and has a good 7lb claimer booked.

GIRLS BEST FRIEND impressed when scoring readily in a conditional riders' event at Uttoxeter last week and could be tough to deal with from the same mark. Lord Maher still held every chance when he was brought down at Fontwell on his most recent start and can also play a big part if avoiding trouble this time. Beat The Edge appeals as best of the rest, with a first-time visor noted as a potential source for improvement.

It is very hard to look beyond GIRLS BEST FRIEND, who is able to run off the same mark as for last week's 5l win on his chase debut.

It was a modest race that GETAWAY WITH YOU won at Lingfield last week but it may serve as enough of a confidence booster for the gelding to follow up under a 7lb penalty in this similarly weak event. Blue Universe has been placed at a higher level in maiden company and can make this a good test for the selection, while Albie Littlewood may improve for stepping up in trip.

Skelton runner ALBIE LITTLEWOOD is particularly interesting with improvement highly likely. Getaway With You is second pick.

OLIVIA KATE is not without risk but has the ability to win a race of this nature, assuming she keeps her tendency to jump left under control. Matt Sheppard's mare was still very much in contention when she came down three out at Ludlow most recently and looks well worth another chance. Already a dual winner over hurdles, the returning Just Aidan is feared most. Out Of Focus is also of interest.

Eight-time Flat winner SOLANNA has a handy opening hurdles mark and gets the vote ahead of Out Of Focus.

SURREY LORD can land this handicap hurdle finale. Toby Lawes' inmate arrives in really good form having proved his Ffos Las success was no fluke when winning stylishly at Kempton last time. That effort suggests there could be more in the locker and he gets the nod ahead of Chepstow winner Doctors Hill. Keep an eye on Dirty Den as well.

Handicap debutant CAME FROM NOWHERE was third in two good maidens last year and also looked promising when reappearing last month.

Beach Partee beat Solar Invincible by a length to make it two wins from his last three starts at Lingfield last time and is expected to confirm that form. However, FILLY FODEN outran her odds of 33/1 to finish just over two lengths clear of the third when second at Wolverhampton earlier in the week and a similar performance might suffice. Mad Unicorn struck at the same venue last month and is another to consider.

This is tougher for BEACH PARTEE but he is on the up and is well drawn to attack. He can prove too strong for Sunlit Sea.

Cool Molly has shown ability in her three career outings, most recently making the frame at Kempton, and she is likely to be thereabouts. Zoustar Dreams possesses a similar profile but was third when favourite at Newcastle, so it may pay to side with EALHSWITH. The Gosdens' juvenile finished last of six on debut at Goodwood in May but returns from a break and it would be no surprise to see her take a big step forward.

Zoustar Dreams and Ealhswith are considered but THREE NON BLONDES and Luna Celeste are notable newcomers.

Blackisthenewblack improved on her debut sixth at Kempton to finish third at Newcastle last month and may get closer, but a chance can be taken on newcomer SYMBOL OF MAJESTY. The daughter of New Bay is a half-sister to an all-weather Listed scorer in Military Academy and Fillies' Mile winner Commissioning, so she could outclass these on debut. Venetia is going the right way and is another to keep an eye on.

Venetia should give it another good go but CAPICHERA was finishing with real purpose on her debut and can take a step forward.

Nemov and Panelli both make their first appearances for the Stuart Williams yard and the market could be informative, but they might be up against it with their stablemate CHERRY COBBLER. The son of Zoustar finished a close third on handicap debut over 6f at this venue in October and his maiden victory came over this distance, so he could be the one to beat. Cressida Wildes completes the shortlist.

The unexposed CHERRY COBBLER (nap) gets the vote ahead of Twilight Fun and Almaty Star.

Invincible Melody finished second over this distance at Windsor in September before being well beaten over 7f here, so is one to note back at this trip. However, DANGER ALERT remains on a tempting mark after his respectable fourth at Lingfield last month. George Baker's five-year-old has struck twice on the all-weather and he could improve on that record here. Baba Reza is another to note.

Dropped in grade, SUPREME KING can take advantage of a lowly mark. Spring Bloom is next best but money for Koge should be noted

1	2 1st (2) (11/4 +58%) Dark Side Thunder	2.75 11/4(+58%)	(2) Dark Side Thunder 11/4, Just about to form and up in grade when beaten 2l off 71 at Southwell last time. Effective at 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and all-weather, and is consistent, just below his last winning mark. On a good mark, effective on AW and well drawn; contender down in class.
2	8 2nd (8) (9/2 +31%) Havana Gila	4.5 9/2(+31%)	(8) Havana Gila 9/2, Game and ran to form when beaten 1 1/4l off 61 at Wolverhampton last time. Effective at 6/7f, acts on a sound surface and all-weather, and has shown more like it in her latest couple of starts. Losing run stands at 16 but she has been threatening in recent starts; contender.
3	5 3rd (5) (4/1 +20%) Emperor's Son	4 4/1(+20%)	(5) Emperor's Son 4/1, Looked unlucky when beaten a neck off 67 over 5f here last time. Effective at 5/6f and best on a sound surface, with compensation looking possible. No win since debut but runner-up over 5f here last month; step back up in trip a plus.
4	7 4th (7) (11/1 +8%) Mu Mu Land	11 11/1(+8%)	(7) Mu Mu Land 11/1, Ran to 2025 level when beaten 3 1/2l off 64 at Newcastle last time. Effective at 6/7f and acts on a sound surface, with his mark continuing to slide. 6f AW maiden win last autumn; handicapper in command this year; others more appealing.
5th	1 5th (1) (9/2 +68%) Lightning Bear	4.5 9/2(+68%)	(1) Lightning Bear 9/2, Below form but with excuses when beaten 4l off 75 over 5f at Lingfield last time. Effective at 5/6f, acts on a sound surface, and the step back up in trip may help. Latest run not without hope and another 5lb drop helps matters; interesting back at 6f.
6th	4 6th (4) (9/1 -64%) Due Date	9 9/1(-64%)	(4) Due Date 9/1, Improved again when landing a handicap by 1 1/2l off 62 here last time. Wide draw, but suited by 6f and acts on a sound surface. Four-timer possible despite a 5lb rise. Completed a hat-trick here five weeks ago; 5lb rise/stronger opposition may find him out.
7th	6 7th (6) (9/1 -13%) Ezra Cee	9 9/1(-13%)	(6) Ezra Cee 9/1, Bit below form when tried in new headgear combination, beaten 5l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Suited by 6f and acts on a sound surface, with his mark now easing. None too consistent but on a lowly mark; experiment with accessories quickly aborted.

Due Date completed a hat-trick over track and trip on his most recent start and is sure to attract plenty of support, but he has a tricky draw in stall eight. With that in mind, HAVANA GILA looks the way to go. Harry Eustace's filly produced a better display to fill the runner-up spot at Wolverhampton and she is 1lb well in here. Of the remainder, Emperor's Son makes the most appeal.

The handicapper is giving a helping hand to LIGHTNING BEAR who may be able to capitalise now stepping back up in trip.

1	11 1st (11) (14/1 +13%) Chloe's Courage	14 14/1(+13%)	(11) Chloe's Courage 14/1, Below form after a slow start when beaten 6l in a handicap at Lingfield last time. Blinkers on for the first time. Trainer in good form. Effective at 6/8f and acts on all-weather. Needs to bounce back. 0-11 but placed in five handicaps; no show on Tuesday and blinkers now replace cheekpieces.
2	4 2nd (4) (7/1 +42%) Cill Mocheallog	7 7/1(+42%)	(4) Cill Mocheallog 7/1, Rallied and ran to form when beaten 4l off 60 at Lingfield last time. Blinkers applied for the first time. Effective at 7f and handles all-weather surfaces. Showed more last time. A bit closer on latest start but others have more pressing claims; now tries blinkers.
3	9 3rd (9) (10/1 +0%) Bad Habits	10 10/1(+0%)	(9) Bad Habits 10/1, Ran to form up in trip when beaten 1/2l off 52 at Southwell last time. Effective at 6/7f and best on all-weather. One to consider on recent efforts. 0-14 overall but he's not been far away on his last three starts, particularly latest.
4	10 4th (10) (11/2 +21%) Vitalline	5.5 11/2(+21%)	(10) Vitalline 11/2, Too keen but made late headway when beaten 3 1/4l off 46 at Wolverhampton last time. Drawn wide but effective at 6-7f and suited by the all-weather. Capable off this mark. Looked in good form at Wolverhampton on Monday, travelling strongly but with no daylight.
5th	7 5th (7) (7/1 +36%) Respectable Jack	7 7/1(+36%)	(7) Respectable Jack 7/1, Stopped quickly, well below form when down the field in a handicap over 6f at Yarmouth most recent; cheekpieces first time; effective at 6/7f, acts on GS, AW; bounce back needed up in trip. 0-9; second on Kempton Polytrack (6f) in September; tailed off latest; cheekpieces go on.
6th	5 6th (5) (4/1 +38%) Tam Lin	4 4/1(+38%)	(5) Tam Lin 4/1, Improved with a good attitude down in trip when winning a handicap by 1/2l off 53 here last time. Effective at 7/8f and acts on all-weather. Respected under a penalty. C&D win last week; 6lb penalty but peak Irish form still makes him look well handicapped.
7th	1 7th (1) (7/2 +30%) Onemorenomore	3.5 7/2(+30%)	(1) Onemorenomore 7/2, Best run since spring when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off 59 at Southwell last time; wide draw; effective 6/7f, acts on any; respected under penalty. Career-low mark at Southwell (7f, Tapeta) eight days ago, off mark on AW at ninth attempt.
8th	3 8th (3) (12/1 -41%) Edergole's Gift	12 12/1(-41%)	(3) Edergole's Gift 12/1, Scored by 3 1/4l off 52 here on her penultimate start but below form last time. Effective at 6/7f and handles a sound surface. Needs to find more off this mark. Pretty reliable since the tongue-tie went on six starts ago, including for a C&D win.
9th	12 9th (12) (50/1 -25%) Sold Out	50 50/1(-25%)	(12) Sold Out 50/1, Too keen and again well below form when tried in cheekpieces, beaten 7l in a 6f handicap at Wolverhampton last time. Has speed in his pedigree but yet to find suitable conditions. Hard to fancy. Handicap debut wasn't without hope but he's failed to back it up on either start since.
10th	8 10th (8) (12/1 -50%) Diligent Henry	12 12/1(-50%)	(8) Diligent Henry 12/1, Scored by 3/4l off 50 at Wolverhampton three starts back; bit below best back down in trip on turf sixth beaten 3l off 55 last time; wide draw; best at 7f, acts on AW; return to this trip on AW will suit. Both wins were 7f on Wolverhampton Tapeta; chance on that form and close on sole run here.
11th	2 11th (2) (16/1 -220%) Toussarok	16 16/1(-220%)	(2) Toussarok 16/1, Won by 3l off 52 at Wolverhampton three starts ago and bounced back to form when fifth last time. Effective at 6/7f and acts on a sound surface. Mark still workable. Penultimate start (bled from the nose) interrupted a pretty solid sequence.
12th	6 12th (6) (40/1 -122%) Nubough	40 40/1(-122%)	(6) Nubough 40/1, Probably needed the run when beaten 4l off 59 here last time. Effective at 6/7f and acts on all-weather. Erratic type and mark looks stiff. 3-17 record here includes wins this March/May; others may be a bit better handicapped.

Onemorenomore and Tam Lin both have to be respected on the back of recent victories, but the penalties they carry could leave them vulnerable. With that in mind, preference is for BAD HABITS, who was only narrowly denied when filling third place over 7f at Southwell last week. Off the same mark here, it would be no surprise to see Ruth Carr's gelding earn his first victory.

Most have reasonable each-way claims. Last week's C&D scorer TAM LIN remains well treated on his best Irish form and may score again.

1	1 1st (1) (4/1 +0%) Lady Of Arabia	4 4/1(+0%)	(1) Lady Of Arabia 4/1, Did well considering early stumble when beaten 2 1/2l off 77 over 8f at Lingfield last time; visor first time; effective 8f-10f, acts on AW, suited by fast ground; running consistently. More to prove over this far but in reasonable form; first visor replaces other headgear.
2	11 2nd (11) (18/1 -100%) Live Each Day	18 18/1(-100%)	(11) Live Each Day 18/1, Scored by 2l off 62 over 8f at Kempton on her penultimate start and ran to form last time. Top course trainer. Effective 7-10f and acts on AW. Respected off this mark. Inconsistent in handicaps but won two and was second in one of her four attempts at 1m2f.

6th	7 6th (7) (13/2 +35%) Kathleen Mary	6.5 13/2(+35%)	(7) Kathleen Mary 13/2, Below form on ground too soft when comfortably held in a handicap at Windsor last time. In good form prior and returning from a break. Effective up to 10f and acts on AW. Could bounce back if ready. Soundly beaten on turf for handicap debut in July; return to AW presumably gives some hope.
7th	2 7th (2) (20/1 -25%) Alpine Oasis	20 20/1(-25%)	(2) Alpine Oasis 20/1, Down in trip and improved on return when beaten 3l off 75 over 9f at Wolverhampton last time. Effective 10-12f; all form on AW. Respected if building on that run. First run since she left Karl Burke for 8,000gns; best efforts make this look a good mark.
8th	6 8th (6) (50/1 -25%) Yokkell	50 50/1(-25%)	(6) Yokkell 50/1, Made no impact from off the pace when stepped up in trip and down the field over 11f at Kempton last time. Effective at 8f and acts on any surface. Out of form since spring but has dropped in the weights. Irish AW winner; also won at Nottingham in May but has gone the wrong way since.
9th	5 9th (5) (9/1 +25%) Brave Byreflection	9 9/1(+25%)	(5) Brave Byreflection 9/1, Took a step back in the right direction when beaten 2l off 74 over 8f at Kempton last time. Hood first time. Suited by 7/8f and acts on a sound surface, but has a bit to prove over this trip. Unraced here but the first of her two wins (11 races) was on Kempton Polytrack; first hood.
10th	3 10th (3) (7/1 -27%) Beauty By My Side	7 7/1(-27%)	(3) Beauty By My Side 7/1, Produced her best run since summer, staying on late in cheekpieces when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off 71 over 8f here last time. Effective at 8f and acts on AW. More to offer at this trip. Mixed fortunes but first-time cheekpieces saw her score here (1m) on latest outing.
11th	9 11th (9) (7/1 -27%) Golden Phase	7 7/1(-27%)	(9) Golden Phase 7/1, Did well considering an early stumble when 5 1/4l third in a handicap at Newbury last time. Top course jockey booked. Returning from a break. Effective 10-12f and acts on AW. Respected if fit. Turf winner; 0-8 record on AW (unraced here) includes three 2nds, so needs a second look.
12th	10 12th (10) (33/1 -32%) Flaine	33 33/1(-32%)	(10) Flaine 33/1, Scored by a head off 66 over 9f at Wolverhampton three starts back but below form last time. Blinkers first time. Usually held up.

BEAUTY BY MY SIDE has a very good record on the all-weather and that includes a victory over 1m here when last seen in October. This step up in trip may bring about further improvement from the three-year-old and that can help her to defy a 3lb rise. The consistent Lady Of Arabia is likely to be in the mix once again, while Amica and Live Each Day are others with strong claims.

Beauty By My Side is second choice to AMICA. Both ran well last time and look interesting upped in trip.

Effective at 10f and acts on the all-weather. Still a maiden but has produced good runs of late. 0-9 but she went close at Lingfield on penultimate run; player if she gets the breaks.

Effective from 8–10f and acts on a sound surface. On a competitive mark. On workable mark but he's faded in last two starts and this looks tough from wide draw.

Effective from 8–10f but acts on yielding and good ground. No sign of revival yet. Sole win was in Ireland in July 2024 and she needs a major revival back in trip.

DINGWALL was first past the post when bidding for a hat-trick at Wolverhampton earlier in the week. That said, he was demoted to second by the stewards and he could provide his supporters with some compensation on this occasion. Seconds Count has to be noted on her debut for these connections given her consistent form earlier in the year. Others who make the shortlist are Beachborough Girl, Al Shabab and Lady Aiyana.

Preference is DINGWALL, who won two in a row at Wolverhampton last month and was first past the post in hat-trick bid there on Monday.

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.
