13:40 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

JOHN BETJEMAN has been a reliable performer under both codes this year and the seven-year-old, who was last seen on the level finishing second at Salisbury in May, can be rewarded for his consistency. Fen Tiger has gone close on his last couple of starts, most recently when beaten a neck at Brighton. He is likely to be in the mix again, while others capable of a decent showing include Nevendon and Man Of The Sea.

The really interesting one is MAN OF THE SEA, who is very well weighted judged on his exploits in Jersey and the booking of a leading amateur is a sign of intent. Fen Tiger is sure to be plugging on, with Idilico one to monitor in the market for a new yard down in class.

Former hurdler SILVER ATOM goes up in trip off a basement mark for his Flat handicap debut and earns the vote ahead of Fen Tiger.

14:15 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

CENTURION DREAM may have been inconvenienced by a combination of a quick turnaround and softer conditions on his third start at Goodwood, following a couple of promising efforts at Newmarket. A repeat of his third the time before would give him strong credentials of getting off the mark. Unreal Connection landed an Epsom maiden on her latest outing and has to be of interest on her nursery debut, with Tactical Control expected to benefit from stepping up in trip.

QUICKFIRE comes here on the back of a very good Salisbury second so looks the way to go racing off a 2 lb lower mark now. Tactical Control is feared most in his bid for a breakthrough success ahead of another in-form maiden Blue Collar.

Not much went to plan for BLUE COLLAR at York last month but his sights are lowered for this second nursery and he retains potential.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

ROCKET WARRIOR took a decent step forward from his debut effort when fourth at Yarmouth and that piece of form appears to be the standout on paper. The son of Saxon Warrior is open to further improvement and gets the vote to strike at the third attempt. Hieloray displayed signs of greenness when benefiting from a step up in trip to finish fourth at Chepstow and is likely to progress again, while Continuance and Leguizamo can fight it out for the minor placings.

ROCKET WARRIOR just holds the edge on form and with the prospect of more to come then Marco Botti's son of Saxon Warrior edges the vote from Continuance, who also remains with potential on the back of his recent Goodwood fifth. Hieloray is another who can have a say if building on his Chepstow fourth.

The vote goes to CONTINUANCE, who appears to have an easier task than previously. Rocket Warrior is second choice.

15:25 Bath Handicap (Class 2) 14f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

BEGGARMAN has claimed successive second placings at this venue and he can go one better. Hughie Morrison's charge was only beaten three-quarters of a length last time and another bold bid can be expected off the same mark. Cherry Cola won well over C&D on Wednesday and is feared most, although she may be vulnerable under a 4lb penalty. Lusaka has accounted for her, as well as the selection, this summer but has top weight to contend with. Book Of Tales is another to consider.

A competitive handicap with plenty arriving in top form, and a tentative vote goes to BEGGARMAN, who's taken to gain reward for a consistent spell now fitted with first-time eyeshields and visor. Lusaka, Cherry Cola and Zillion are a trio of potential threats.

Unlike most of these, GREASED LIGHTNING could have some improvement lurking as a stayer and his latest race didn't go to plan.

16:00 Bath Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

BEYOND EQUAL has been knocking on the door and this looks a good opportunity to go close once again. The eight-year-old was beaten just a neck by Magnificence over C&D on his penultimate appearance and he can reverse the form with that rival now 1lb better off. Secret Handsheikh is feared most after a comfortable success at Brighton earlier in the week and he appears primed to offer another bold bid, despite the burden of a 5lb penalty.

SECRET HANDSHEIKH turned in his best performance for some time to run out a dominant winner at Brighton 5 days ago and is the percentage call to follow up under a penalty. Delagate This Lord wasn't seen to best effect in his hat-trick bid over C&D last month and is better judged on his previous form as a result, while 3-y-o Cluedo completes the shortlist.

Regal Envoy looks booked for another big run at this track but the unexposed CLUEDO (nap) can benefit from today's stiffer test.

16:35 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

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

WE'RE REUNITED (second) had Epeius (fifth) behind when runner-up in a classified event over 5f at this track and now steps back into the handicap ranks. The six-year-old is only 1lb higher than his last winning mark and he is fancied to go in. Suanni was beaten under two lengths into fourth at Wolverhampton and could have a say off a 1lb lower rating, while Tilsworth Ony Ta isn't out of it either.

SUANNI has dropped a long way in the weights and looked back in form when fourth at Wolverhampton last time, so he's worth chancing over a C&D that he's been successful before. We're Reunited, who was runner-up here last time, is an obvious danger and Malham Tarn Cove is likely to be back on his game.

Tilsworth Ony Ta can go well but the unexposed FISHERMANS COTTAGE ran well over C&D last time and has more to come.

LILANDRA hasn't finished out of the top two on each of her last three starts, with the latest effort coming when runner-up over C&D, and she has been left on the same mark. The daughter of Equiano can continue her fine form to strike. The main danger might be Galactic Glow (third), who had Bantry (fourth) behind when only beaten a length and a half at Chepstow last month, and he could bounce back from his latest under-par effort at this track.

LORD CLENAGHCASTLE made a solid start for his new stable when runner-up at Brighton 12 days ago and he's well handicapped on past exploits, so he gets the vote in a weak event. Lilandra arrives in good order and should pose a threat, while Galactic Glow is expected to bounce back from a poor showing.

The suggestion is LORD GLENAGHCASTLE, who was beginning to look a lost cause before turning things around on his recent stable debut.

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

Villalobos (second) had Alyara (third) behind when putting in a pleasing display at Lingfield and he was raised just 1lb, which keeps him well in the mix. However, preference is for MACON BELLE, who outran odds of 33/1 to take a big step forward in her form when reaching the frame at Wolverhampton and now steps up from 7f. If she stays, she ought to go close off the same rating. Barleybrown makes some appeal in first-time blinkers.

KENSTONE has lost none of his enthusiasm despite his advancing years and he can make his first Bath visit of the season a winning one. Villalobos returned to form at Lingfield 10 days ago and he's a threat, along with Alyara.

New blinkers and a return to 1m can help Barleybrown but this may be run to suit KENSTONE and the veteran can record another win.

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.
