LTO Selection:

14:40 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A change of scenery appears to have worked wonders for DELAGATE THIS LORD, who recorded a second success in as many starts for the Robyn Brisland team over C&D a fortnight ago. He remains well treated from 5lb higher and is fancied to continue his fine run, though multiple course winner Symbol of Hope ought to provide a stern challenge. Others to note include Jenever, Brian The Snail and Autumn Angel.

A case can be made for lots of these but the most persuasive one is for SYMBOL OF HOPE who got back on the up when runner-up over C&D only five days ago and can boast multiple wins round here. Fellow course specialist Delagate This Lord rates the obvious threat in his bid for a hat-trick with Jenever, Autumn Angel and Bluebell Time all in the picture too.

Many of the in-form horses are drawn wide. The Cola Kid is a probable contender but preference is for the progressive JENEVER.

Bussento

0.11
0.11/1(+45%)
(3) Bussento 0.11/1, Fairly useful gelding who ran up to best when second of 10 in handicap at Haydock (7f) 2 starts back. Not in same form at Ascot since but this rates a good opportunity for him to get off the mark.
Has some useful form and this looks a golden opportunity back in a maiden; has been gelded.
5
2nd (5) Back Tomorrow (14/1 -17%)
Back Tomorrow

14
14/1(-17%)
(5) Back Tomorrow 14/1, Rajasinghe filly. Half-sister to winner up to 1m Blue Collar Lad. Dam maiden (stayed 7f). One to note in the betting for clues on debut.
Yard 17% in 3yo maidens in recent years and she needs a market check on debut.
4
3rd (4) Mma Ramotswe (25/1 -127%)
Mma Ramotswe

25
25/1(-127%)
(4) Mma Ramotswe 25/1, Once-raced filly. Attracted support but ultimately offered little when last of 7 in maiden at Southwell (6.1f, 3/1) in January, slowly away and always behind. Absent since and this ought to reveal a good deal more.
Well backed on her Southwell debut in January but she finished a tailed-off last of seven.
7
4th (7) Lady Gazelle (33/1 +18%)
Lady Gazelle

33
33/1(+18%)
(7) Lady Gazelle 33/1, Twice-raced filly. Seventh of 8 in minor event at Wolverhampton (5.1f, 28/1). Off 145 days. Hooded for 1st time but she rates a likely type for low-grade handicaps further down the line.
Well-held seventh in two AW runs in March and has stacks to find on this switch to turf.
1
5th (1) Hoornblower (11/1 +8%)
Hoornblower

11
11/1(+8%)
(1) Hoornblower 11/1, Fair form on first 3 starts on AW but has gone the wrong way since, not looking at all straightforward when last of 10 in maiden at this course (1m) 4 weeks ago. Takes a marked step back in trip now.
Showed early promise but he's lost his way and has plenty to prove on this drop to 5f.
2
6th (2) Sir Sidney Smith (80/1 -100%)
Sir Sidney Smith

80
80/1(-100%)
(2) Sir Sidney Smith 80/1, Bated Breath gelding. Dam winner up to 6f. Likely he'll be better for the run.
Withdrawn after getting upset in stalls at Doncaster last month and was 22-1 at the time..
LTO Selection:

15:10 Bath Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

This ought to be a penalty kick for the Eve Johnson Houghton-trained BUSSENTO, who sets a clear standard on official ratings. He has been running extremely well in some warm handicaps of late, most recently in a 0-85 at Ascot, and it would be a little disappointing were he to not record a first career success now back in maiden company. Hoornblower is rated 12lb inferior but he is the most likely challenger, while Back Tomorrow heads the remainder.

This looks an excellent opportunity for BUSSENTO, who has shown more than enough in 3-y-o handicaps to think a race of this nature is within reach. Newcomer Back Tomorrow and Hoornblower can do battle for minor honours.

This looks a golden opportunity for BUSSENTO, who sets a useful standard back in a maiden and should be unfazed by this drop in trip.

(2) Pinpoint 2.5/1, Showed slightly more when seventh of 10 in maiden at Chepstow (7.1f, good to soft) 30 days ago. Back down in trip for nursery debut.
Unexposed colt and he looks a possible improver dropped to this trip on nursery debut.
1
2nd (1) Zaphea (9/1 -100%)
Zaphea

9
9/1(-100%)
(1) Zaphea 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 33/1, respectable third of 7 in nursery at Musselburgh (5f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Looks ready for 6f.
Has a mixed record and she's been well held in both nurseries; needs improvement.
5
3rd (5) Manali (4/1 +27%)
Manali

4
4/1(+27%)
(5) Manali 4/1, Respectable third of 7 in nursery at this C&D (good, 20/1) 21 days ago. Eased 2 lb and she should be a factor.
Promising third behind an improver over C&D on her nursery debut; interesting contender.
8

Birkie Boy

12
12/1(+40%)
(8) Birkie Boy 12/1, Failed to improve for the switch to handicaps when sixth of 9 in nursery at Beverley (7.4f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Significantly back down in trip.
Poor form when well held in all four runs and others are preferred.
9
5th (9) Perelle (6/1 +70%)
Perelle

6
6/1(+70%)
(9) Perelle 6/1, Tongue strap on for first time, tenth of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (5.1f) 44 days ago. Makes handicap debut after wind op and needs to take a leap forward, even from this basement mark.
Goes handicapping after wind surgery but she needs to show a lot more back on turf.
3
6th (3) Flemish (9/1 -38%)
Flemish

9
9/1(-38%)
(3) Flemish 9/1, Dam has produced several winners but little to shout about in her qualifying runs, eleventh of 12 in maiden at Newbury (6f, good) 19 days ago. Hood on first time for nursery bow. Could be worth chancing.
Still early days but she needs a transformation dropped to 5f on nursery debut; hood added.

Mist Of Lir

5.5
5.5/1(+15%)
(4) Mist Of Lir 5.5/1, 25/1, respectable fourth of 10 in nursery at Lingfield (7f, good to firm) 14 days ago. Back down in trip and limit looks pretty well established.
Has not finished closer than 4l to a winner in his seven starts; needs more back at 5f.
7
8th (7) Coastal Sunrise (22/1 -10%)
Coastal Sunrise

22
22/1(-10%)
(7) Coastal Sunrise 22/1, Too free to last out when seventh of 9 in nursery (25/1) at Nottingham (6.1f, soft) 22 days ago. Drops in trip.
Best RPR of 32 so far and she needs to do much better on this drop back to 5f.
6
9th (6) Equiart (14/1 -115%)
Equiart

14
14/1(-115%)
(6) Equiart 14/1, 22/1, sixth of 10 in seller at Leicester (6f, good to firm) 32 days ago. Makes handicap debut. One to consider.
Down the field in all four runs, including a seller; needs progress on her nursery debut.
LTO Selection:

15:40 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Having been well held at big prices in her three qualifying runs, FLEMISH gets the nod as she's fitted with a first-time hood for this nursery debut. Tom Ward's Awtaad filly is related to a host of winners, perhaps most notably Group 1 scorer G Force, and this does not look an overly competitive race in which to open her account. Eased 2lb following a respectable C&D third last month, Manali is feared most, while Zaphea completes the shortlist.

Hard to make a compelling case for any of these but FLEMISH is out of a dam who has produced numerous winners, so she gets the tentative vote to step forward now handicapping. Manali and Equiart are a couple of potential threats.

This looks tricky but it might be worth siding with PINPOINT, who looks a possible improver dropped to 5f on his nursery debut.

4.5

(8) Lhebayeb 4.5/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs but has run well to be placed on 5 of her 6 outings this term, the latest when third over 1¼m here with a tongue tie added 28 days ago. Likely to be in the shake-up again.
Longstanding maiden (0-22) but she's been placed in five of her last six starts.

2nd (4) Nevendon (4/1 +0%)
Nevendon

4
4/1(+0%)
(4) Nevendon 4/1, In good form over hurdles this summer and suggested there might be a race in him on the Flat soon when second over C&D 14 days ago. Big player off an unchanged mark.
Second of nine over C&D two weeks ago, which was his best Flat run for ages.

It's How We Roll

28
28/1(-133%)
(9) It's How We Roll 28/1, C&D winner. Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap at Windsor (11.5f, good, 11/1) 11 days ago. Each-way shout.
Mixed messages lately, the big plus being his 11.4f classified win at Windsor in June.
12

Assembled

66
66/1(-65%)
(12) Assembled 66/1, 25/1, tenth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f) 21 days ago, never nearer. Significantly up in trip.
Ten months off before this season and he finished a bit closer again last time.

Bobby Kennedy

14
14/1(-75%)
(3) Bobby Kennedy 14/1, C&D winner. Another good effort here when second on reappearance but disappointing twice since. Needs a first-time visor to have a positive effect.
C&D second (soft) in April; two backward steps on good to firm since; visored first time.
10
6th (10) Gilbert (12/1 +45%)
Gilbert

Won at Windsor (11.4f) in June and has run creditably on two of his three starts since.
13

Mini Mildred

5
5/1(+38%)
(13) Mini Mildred 5/1, 16/1, excellent third of 13 in C&D handicap (good) 5 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Less exposed than a lot of these.
Only six races, close 3rd of 13 over C&D (good to soft) five days ago; could build on that.

Silver Bubble

12

All wins at Brighton but she was a close fourth of 12 over C&D on penultimate start.

AW form has always been better but she needs a second look.
2
11th (2) Galactic Glow (9/1 -80%)
Galactic Glow

9
9/1(-80%)
(2) Galactic Glow 9/1, Three wins over 1¼m here this year. Not at best here (1¼m again) last time but no surprise were he to bounce straight back. Up in trip.
Resurgent with three 1m2f wins here this summer; has looked stretched by this sort of trip.
1
12th (1) Iron Heart (7/1 +36%)
Iron Heart

7
7/1(+36%)
(1) Iron Heart 7/1, Won selling hurdle on final start for David Pipe but has offered nothing in 6 starts on the level for this yard.
Uncompetitive on AW this January-March and soundly beaten at Epsom five weeks ago.
LTO Selection:

16:10 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Galactic Glow was denied a hat-trick when returning to handicap company over 1m2f at this track last month but, given he is still rated 7lb above his last winning mark, NEVENDON can get the better of him today. Alexandra Dunn's six-year-old was a staying-on second over C&D last month and can progress further off the same mark. The consistent Lhebayeb is another to consider.

NEVENDON went down only to track specialist Blue Hero over C&D last time and might be able to go one better off the same mark. Galactic Glow knows where the winning post is here, which counts for plenty at this level, and he's second choice ahead of Lhebayeb, who has regularly been placed this season but remains winless.

Galactic Glow has three wins this season but, given today's trip, recent C&D runner-up NEVENDON gets the vote.

2.5
2.5/1(+75%)
(5) Jack Sparowe 2.5/1, 16/1, below form fifth of 9 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good) 19 days ago. Likely to strip fitter for that and he may well have a bigger performance in him with few miles on the clock.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Runner-up over this distance at Windsor on his most recent outing, MY AMBITION looks the one to beat on his return to this track having recorded a C&D double before that narrow defeat. Although he is now rated 5lb above his last winning mark, George Bass knocks off a handy 3lb with his claim and the four-year-old could have more to offer with this in mind. Eye Of The Water was only narrowly denied when finishing third over C&D on his penultimate outing and is feared most off the same mark, while Jack Sparowe completes the shortlist.

MY AMBITION completed a double at this track in May/June and produced another big effort at Windsor last time, so this thriving 4yo is the obvious one to side with. Eye of The Water usually gives his running and has a solid record at the track, so he's likely to be on the premises and market support for the unexposed Jack Sparowe would look significant.

Barring soft ground, which isn't forecast, MY AMBITION should prove tough to beat after a career-best effort at Windsor.

LTO Selection:

17:15 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

This could go the way of the fairly progressive HAAF A DIAMOND. She lost little in defeat when filling the runner-up spot over this distance at Leicester last month and a reproduction of that effort can see her firmly in the picture, despite a 2lb raised mark. Perfect Gentleman has to shoulder top-weight following a decent third at Wolverhampton last Friday but is still feared most, ahead of Lunar Landscape.

HAAF A DIAMOND has improved since switched to handicaps and she can quickly resume winning ways given the manner she beat the rest when second at Leicester. Lunar Landscape is holding his form well and should be thereabouts again, while Moush and Perfect Gentleman were both not seen to best effect last time.

Top of the list is the progressive filly HAAF A DIAMOND (nap), who was a clear second in her bid for Leicester double last month.

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.
