|||

|||
9th (10)  (80/1 -300%)That Lucas Fella |
80/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) That Lucas Fella 80/1, Foaled April 11. €8,000 yearling, €7,000 2-y-o, Territories colt. Closely related to 1m winner Yimkin.

|||

100/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Albanach 100/1, Foaled March 31. 10,000 gns yearling, Earthlight gelding. Dam, UAE maiden (stayed 1m), half-sister to smart US Grade 3 1m winner Carressa. 10,000gns yearling; by Earthlight; stable is only 2-43 with 2yos. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A chance can be taken on WATTANI, who changed hands for 34,000gns and the son of Starspandledbanner has a speedy pedigree. He is related to a few winners and goes for the in-form Alice Haynes stable, so he just shades the vote. Chuti Manika is another with a promising pedigree and would be foolish to dismiss on his first start. Any market support behind Impartiality should also be noted.
The market should provide plenty of clues with all bar one making their debut, with CHUTI MANIKA the tentative selection. Coonawarra Star and Wattani are other possible types.
Harry Palmer is the only runner with experience. WATTANI, Chuti Manika and Coonawarra Star are interesting newcomers.

(6)  (3/1 +33%)Slainte Mhath |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Slainte Mhath 3/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Run best excused when seventh of 10 in handicap at Chester (6.1f, heavy, 17/2) 23 days ago, never nearer. Blinkers on 1st time. Shortlist material. Frustrating sort but has possibilities if taking well to first-time blinkers. |
|||
1st (5)  (6/1 +67%)Venture Capital |
6/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Venture Capital 6/1, 28/1, made no impression when eighth of 10 in handicap at Thirsk (7f, good) just over 3 weeks ago, not well placed under a change of tactics. Not easy to make a case for. Far from solid on 2024 form but shapes as if this drop to 6f is worth exploring. |
|||
2nd (4)  (8/1 -33%)The Caltonian |
8/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) The Caltonian 8/1, Bounced back to form to finish runner-up for the second successive year when length second of 10 to Be Proud in handicap (22/1) at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, not getting a smooth passage through. Mark unchanged and should go well again. 0-12 on turf but ran well (1l second to Be Proud) over C&D most recently. |
|||
3rd (1)  (80/1 -2186%)Be Proud |
80/1(-2186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Be Proud 80/1, Took advantage of being eased in grade when winning 10-runner handicap at this C&D (good to firm, 4/1) 16 days ago by length from The Caltonian, leading approaching last ½f. Nudged up 3 lb and fancied to be bang there again. Successful over C&D last month; historical data suggests he's capable of following up. |
|||
4th (7)  (22/1 -529%)Classy Al |
22/1(-529%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Classy Al 22/1, Tricky customer. 4-time course winner. 3/1, creditable 1½ lengths third of 10 to Be Proud in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, hanging left over 1f out. Folly to ignore. Ran creditably behind two of these rivals last time; quirky but remains in form. |
|||
5th (2)  (100/1 -355%)Ganesha |
100/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ganesha 100/1, 28/1, stepped up on reappearance run without getting back to last season's form when fifth of 8 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good) 11 days ago. Others more appealing. Three wins over 5f last term; has something to find on 2024 efforts. |
|||
6th (3)  (100/1 -4344%)Winter Crown |
100/1(-4344%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Winter Crown 100/1, Ran up to his best when second of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (6f, good to firm, 7/2) 26 days ago. Yard seemingly in better nick now so he's one to consider. Solid second, behind a subsequent dual winner, at Hamilton latest; respected off same mark. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Winter Crown was just touched off when second at Hamilton last month and he should remain competitive off an unchanged mark. However, the vote goes to BE PROUD, who beat The Caltonian (second) and Classy Al (third) when scoring by a length over track and trip on his latest outing and he is only 3lb higher for that victory. Jim Goldie's eight-year-old can take this step up in his stride and record a double. Slainte Mhath completes the shortlist.
An open-looking sprint but BE PROUD opened his account for the season over C&D just over a fortnight ago and Jim Goldie's 8-y-o is fancied to make light of a 3 lb rise at the expense of Slainte Mhaith, who can have a line put through her latest effort at Chester and has blinkers on for the first time today. Winter Crown can edge out Classy Al for third.
On the back of a very solid effort, WINTER CROWN (nap) holds strong claims off an unchanged mark. Slainte Mhath is second choice.

(11)  (4/1 -33%)Braes Of Doune |
4/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Braes Of Doune 4/1, C&D winner. Respectable second of 8 in handicap (3/1) at this course (8f, good) 47 days ago, staying on close home. Step back up in trip rates a plus and he's one for the shortlist. Engaged 5.20 here Sunday. Won over C&D a year ago; placed here in last two outings, latest yesterday. |
|||
1st (7)  (5/1 +0%)We Still Believe |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) We Still Believe 5/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Respectable third of 14 in handicap at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 8/1) 17 days ago, well drawn. Significantly back up in trip. Not taken lightly. Consistent this year; ties in with Berry Edge and Highwaygrey on Carlisle effort. |
|||
2nd (10)  (28/1 -133%)Rich Harry |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Rich Harry 28/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap (33/1) at Salisbury (8f, good) 22 days ago, beaten final 1f. Back up in trip. 3yo maiden whose form has dipped since being gelded (consistent previously). |
|||
3rd (4)  (13/2 +46%)Tilsitt |
13/2(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Tilsitt 13/2, C&D winner. 11/1, shaped as if better for the run after 6 months off when fourth of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 19 days ago. Potentially very well handicapped but his losing run does temper enthusiasm. On a long losing run but is attractively treated; won off 16lb higher here in 2022. |
|||
4th (3)  (66/1 -725%)Berry Edge |
66/1(-725%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Berry Edge 66/1, 1 win from 3 runs this year. 11/1, ended lengthy losing run in 13-runner handicap at Carlisle (9f, good to soft) 28 days ago by ½ length from Highwaygrey, staying on to lead final 50 yds having been very slowly away. Not discounted nudged up 3 lb. Got up close home to beat Highwaygrey at Carlisle and should remain competitive. |
|||
5th (1)  (4/1 +33%)Highwaygrey |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Highwaygrey 4/1, C&D winner who turned in best effort of the season when runner-up at Carlisle (9f) on his penultimate start. Raced keenly and ran below best when sixth of 8 in handicap back at that venue 12 days ago but not dismissed out of hand dropped into class 6 company. Best effort this term when close second to Berry Edge at Carlisle on penultimate start. |
|||
6th (5)  (66/1 -676%)Glasses Up |
66/1(-676%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Glasses Up 66/1, 6-time C&D winner. Fifth of 7 in handicap (40/1) at Carlisle (14.2f, soft) 21 days ago. Refitting of cheekpieces could well perk him up and he's another in with a shout. Seven-time course winner; far from consistent since last success. |
|||
7th (8)  (40/1 -471%)Volcanology |
40/1(-471%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Volcanology 40/1, Won second of 3 starts as a juvenile in the autumn and, easy to back, shaped as if better for the run when fifth of 8 in handicap at Ripon (9.8f, good) 19 days ago, weakening final 1f. Comes here easily one of the least exposed and better showing anticipated. Failed to get home on reappearance but may improve with that outing under his belt. |
|||
8th (2)  (80/1 -471%)Ayr Poet |
80/1(-471%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ayr Poet 80/1, 5-time course winner. 40/1, eleventh of 12 in Cumberland Plate handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, good to firm) 12 days ago. Ease back down in class rates an obvious plus but each of his last 4 victories have come in cheekpieces (again left off here). Five course wins; should benefit from return to Class 6; record of 8-24 in this grade. |
|||
9th (9)  (28/1 -211%)Racing Vicar |
28/1(-211%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Racing Vicar 28/1, Left debut form well behind when second of 5 in 1m maiden here in April. Not in same form when fifth of 10 in maiden (28/1) at Musselburgh (8f, good to firm) 25 days ago but switch to handicaps rates more suitable now. Best effort in maidens when second here in April; may progress now handicapping. |
|||
10th (6)  (100/1 -614%)Hondo |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Hondo 100/1, 8/1, off 9 months/first run since leaving Roger Fell & Sean Murray when last of 7 in handicap at Hamilton (11.1f, good to firm) 19 days ago, dropping away very quickly once headed. This should reveal more. 4yo maiden; trailed home last of seven at Hamilton on stable/seasonal debut. |
|||
11th (12)  (125/1 -89%)Bellslea |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Bellslea 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Last of 13 in handicap at Hamilton (8.3f, good to firm, 80/1) 26 days ago. Up in trip. Has very weak claims on form. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
Berry Edge accounted for Highwaygrey (second) and We Still Believe (third) over 1m1f at Carlisle last month and he can confirm that form off a 3lb higher mark. However, RACING VICAR hit the crossbar over a mile here on his penultimate start. The son of Make Believe takes a step up in trip on his handicap bow and can defy his opening mark of 64. Glasses Up is a seven-time course winner and is another to note.
BRAES OF DOUNE (due to run here on Sunday) remains lightly raced for a 6-y-o and returned from a break with a good second over 1m in May. The step back up in trip rates an obvious plus and he's a lead player if turned out quickly. Highwaygrey is lurking on a very dangerous mark and is a player if putting it all together. Berry Edge, Glasses Up and We Still Believe complete the shortlist.
Armed with a 3lb pull and Amie Waugh's 5lb claim, class-dropper HIGHWAYGREY could well reverse Carlisle placings with Berry Edge.

1st (1)  (5/4 +38%)Sea King |
5/4(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Sea King 5/4, Made a winning reappearance at Ripon, before finding it tougher when fourteenth of 19 in Duke of Edinburgh Stakes (22/1) at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Well worth another chance with blinkers on 1st time. Drops back in class and has clear possibilities provided he takes well to the headgear. |
|||
2nd (3)  (33/1 -843%)Dark Moon Rising |
33/1(-843%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Dark Moon Rising 33/1, Back to form when winning at Hamilton in June. Not at the same level when ninth of 15 in handicap at Thirsk (14f, good, 9/1) 22 days ago, but he's on a workable mark so he's a contender as he drops back down in trip. Inconsistent over the last two years but recent form includes a 1m5f win at Hamilton. |
|||
3rd (5)  (12/1 -41%)Sir Chauvelin |
12/1(-41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sir Chauvelin 12/1, C&D winner. Finished closer than previously this year when fourth of 9 in handicap (40/1) back at this C&D (good to firm) 16 days ago, never nearer. Has eased further in the weights so he's not discounted. 12yo who hinted at a revival in C&D event last time; third in this race two years ago. |
|||
4th (2)  (22/1 -1070%)Struth |
22/1(-1070%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Struth 22/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. Good third at Haydock in June, but unable to repeat that effort when twelfth of 19 in Duke of Edinburgh Stakes (50/1) at Royal Ascot (12f, good to firm) 17 days ago. Capable if on a going day. On a 14-race losing run but holds a fighting chance off current mark; drops back in grade. |
|||
5th (4)  (100/1 -1233%)Ravenscraig Castle |
100/1(-1233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ravenscraig Castle 100/1, Last win came at this C&D back in 2021. Fit from hurdling and in first-time blinkers, raced too freely when tenth of 12 in handicap at Carlisle (11.2f, good to firm, 33/1) 12 days ago. Others preferred. Won over C&D in 2021; close second off 5lb higher in this contest last year; interesting. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
DARK MOON RISING won over this distance at Hamilton before fading in the closing stages on the slow ground at Thirsk on his latest start. He gets another chance back on his favoured surface. Sea King and Struth were both well beaten in the same handicap at Royal Ascot last month, with the former preferred of that pair only 2lb higher than when winning at Ripon in April.
SEA KING was value for extra when making a successful return at Ripon, overcoming trouble in running, so he is taken to resume winning ways as he drops back in grade after Royal Ascot last time. With blinkers applied, he can get the better of Dark Moon Rising, who won over this trip on his penultimate start, while Sir Chauvelin could also be in the mix.
This is a return to much calmer waters for STRUTH (narrowly preferred) and Sea King, who both ran at Royal Ascot last month.

7/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Abruzzo Mia 7/1, Latest win at Newcastle in March. Bit below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Doncaster (1m, good to soft, 9/2) 22 days ago. Similar type to Al Muqdad, having failed to see out 1m last time. |
|||
(9)  (9/1 -13%)Jkr Cobbler |
9/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Jkr Cobbler 9/1, Racked up a C&D hat-trick last summer and back to winning ways on Carlisle reappearance. Not in the same form when seventh there since but he's capable of bouncing straight back at a track where he has such a good record. Good record over this C&D last term featured three wins; enters calculations. |
|||
1st (1)  (9/4 +10%)Al Muqdad |
9/4(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Al Muqdad 9/4, C&D winner in June and followed up at Doncaster a fortnight later. 11/4, fourth of 7 back at Doncaster (1m, good to firm) 9 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Can give a good account. Failed to get home over 1m when bidding for June hat-trick; remains of interest. |
|||
2nd (5)  (9/1 +0%)He's A Gentleman |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) He's A Gentleman 9/1, Ran well when second to Divine Libra at Chester in May but well below form 3 times since. Bounce back needed. Runner-up eight times on turf but he is now 0-19 in this sphere. |
|||
3rd (4)  (6/1 -118%)Yaaser |
6/1(-118%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Yaaser 6/1, C&D winner. 10/1, shaped better than result when fifth of 17 in Carlisle Bell (1m, good to firm) 12 days ago, finishing with running left. His slow starts mean he's perhaps not one for maximum faith but he looks ready to strike again soon. Often slowly away; ran respectably in competitive fields the last twice; possibilities. |
|||
4th (3)  (7/1 +56%)Judgment Call |
7/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Judgment Call 7/1, C&D winner. Last of 16 in handicap at York (7f, good to soft, 20/1) 24 days ago, ridden too aggressively. Had been a good second at Musselburgh prior to that. Claims if back to that form, Swallowed up in big field last time; returns to calmer waters; suited by C&D. |
|||
5th (6)  (12/1 -20%)Monhammer |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Monhammer 12/1, C&D winner on reappearance in May. Respectable 2¾ lengths third of 10 to Al Muqdad back here since. Has plenty of C&D form, including both starts this term; third to Al Muqdad latest. |

6th (7)  (100/1 -456%)Black Friday |
100/1(-456%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Black Friday 100/1, Four-time course winner but ran poorly here last time. Scored on this card in 2021; failed to beat a rival here last month. |
|||
7th (8)  (80/1 -400%)Gone Rogue |
80/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Gone Rogue 80/1, 15/2 and blinkered first time, last of 5 in handicap at Carlisle (1m, good to soft) 38 days ago. Headgear quickly discarded. Too headstrong in blinkers last time; gelded since and headgear is removed. |
|||
8th (10)  (66/1 -313%)Zebra Star |
66/1(-313%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Zebra Star 66/1, C&D winner on reappearance in May but well below that level back here twice since. Hard to know what to expect. Made all in C&D event on seasonal debut; has regressed sharply since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
AL MUQDAD landed a double last month that included a C&D success. Another bold bid looks on the cards back over 7f having failed to stay the mile trip at Doncaster last time. Judgment Call will appreciate the return to good ground judged on his second at Musselburgh on his reappearance, while Monhammer won here in May and makes most appeal of the remainder.
YAASER was an eyecatcher in the very competitive Carlisle Bell recently and is worth a chance to build on that promise back in slightly calmer waters. David O'Meara's Al Muqdad has made a good start to the summer and is second choice ahead of C&D specialist Jkr Cobbler.
Having performed respectably in the competitive Carlisle Bell last time, YAASER may be the answer granted a strongly run race.

(1)  (9/2 -80%)Thaki |
9/2(-80%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Thaki 9/2, C&D winner. 12/1, improved on recent efforts to win 7-runner handicap at Hamilton (6f, good) 11 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Won at Hamilton last time; defied a 4lb higher mark over C&D last August; respected. |
|||
(9)  (28/1 -211%)Nazca |
28/1(-211%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Nazca 28/1, 2 wins from 6 runs this year. Latest win at Newcastle in March. 11/2, eighth of 10 in handicap at this C&D (good to firm) 47 days ago. All wins on AW; down the field in C&D event last time; turf form remains poor. |
|||
1st (8)  (4/1 +27%)Eternal Sunshine |
4/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Eternal Sunshine 4/1, 6/1, career best when winning 18-runner minor event at Thirsk (6f, good to firm) 14 days ago, kept up to work. Lightly raced and should go well again. Opened her account at Thirsk two weeks ago on first 6f attempt; may build on that win. |
|||
2nd (7)  (12/1 +14%)One Of Our Own |
12/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) One Of Our Own 12/1, 18/5 and visored for 1st time, fifth of 6 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good) 11 days ago, slowly away. Cheekpieces back on. Others more persuasive. May benefit from the return of cheekpieces; sole success came in this headgear. |
|||
3rd (5)  (15/2 -134%)Atomise |
15/2(-134%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Atomise 15/2, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. Good second of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, soft, 4/1) 21 days ago, caught further back than ideal. Merits consideration. Knocking at the door this term, keeping-on second at Carlisle most recently; in the mix. |
|||
4th (6)  (9/1 -125%)Pembrokeshire |
9/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Pembrokeshire 9/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 7/1, creditable second of 10 in handicap at Musselburgh (7.1f, good) 5 days ago, slowly away. Worthy of respect. Ran creditably over 7f last week; likely player provided he's in same form back at 6f. |
|||
5th (3)  (16/1 -33%)Ballyare |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ballyare 16/1, 18/1, last of 9 in handicap at Carlisle (5.8f, soft) 21 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others make more appeal. Now 15lb below last winning mark but doesn't seem poised to take advantage. |
|||
6th (2)  (80/1 -142%)Back Tomorrow |
80/1(-142%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Back Tomorrow 80/1, Latest win at Southwell in January. Last of 9 in handicap (33/1) at Catterick (5f, good to soft) 20 days ago, slowly away. Two 6f AW wins last winter; needs to improve on her 5f turf efforts for new stable. |
|||
7th (10)  (125/1 -89%)Onthebunny |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Onthebunny 125/1, Eyeshields on for 1st time, seventh of 11 in minor event (200/1) at this course (7.2f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Still a maiden and holds very weak claims on her form for current yard. |
|||
8th (4)  (100/1 -525%)Ski Angel |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ski Angel 100/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. 7/1, last of 7 in handicap at this course (5f, good to firm) 16 days ago, lost all chance at start. Not one to rule out. All wins at 5f; blew the start last time; something to prove back over 6f. |
|||
9th (11)  (100/1 -100%)Allegro Brillante |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Allegro Brillante 100/1, Hooded for 1st time, sixth of 7 in handicap at this course (7.2f, good to firm, 50/1) 16 days ago. 3yo maiden who has poor RPRs; yet to be placed. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
It could pay to stick with last month's Hamilton winner THAKI, given he was scoring off a 4lb higher rating over course and distance last autumn. Atomise has been threatening a return to winning ways and placed again when runner-up at Carlisle, while Pembrokeshire found one too good over 7f at Musselburgh last week and can also figure. Eternal Sunshine won a classified stakes at Thirsk latest, but will find this tougher.
ATOMISE is on a long losing run but she's knocking on the door and, having stayed on well from further back than ideal at Carlisle last time, she gets the nod over last-time-out winners Thaki and Eternal Sunshine.
Thirsk winner ETERNAL SUNSHINE may have more to offer at this distance and is taken to follow up. Thaki is second choice.

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.
