1st (8) Asense (12/1 -85%)
Asense

12
12/1(-85%)
(8) Asense 12/1, Two wins from 5 runs this year. Career best when winning 7-runner handicap (3/1) at this course (11.6f, firm) 26 days ago by nose from Uther Pendragon. Raised just 1 lb but shade more needed if she's to complete the hat-trick.
Led on the line to deny Uther Pendragon here a month ago; good to soft would be fine.

2nd (1) Beggarman (6.5/1 -44%)
Beggarman

6.5
6.5/1(-44%)
(1) Beggarman 6.5/1, Eyeshields on for 1st time visored for 1st time, tenth of 14 in handicap (15/2) at this course (14f, good) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and each-way chance if able to bounce back.
Running well until last time; one to consider with the cheekpieces back on.
14
3rd (14) Highland Flyer (11/1 -22%)
Highland Flyer

11
11/1(-22%)
(14) Highland Flyer 11/1, Good ¾-length third of 7 to Asense in handicap at this course (11.6f, firm, 11/4) 26 days ago, but probably more of an each-way than a win contender.
Close third over 1m3f here last time and gives the impression that he'll stay this far.
3
4th (3) Arthalot (14/1 -40%)
Arthalot

14
14/1(-40%)
(3) Arthalot 14/1, 12/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, below form fifth of 10 in handicap at Salisbury (14.2f, good to soft). Off 151 days but can make his presence felt if fully tuned-up.
Ran well over hurdles in April but then tailed off over 1m6f at Salisbury.
6
5th (6) It's How We Roll (6/1 -20%)
It's How We Roll

6
6/1(-20%)
(6) It's How We Roll 6/1, Course winner. 13/2, creditable second of 12 in handicap at Windsor (11.4f, good to firm) 28 days ago, very slowly away. First run for yard after leaving Henry Oliver and he's shortlist material.
Running well but was recently taken out of a soft-ground engagement.
2
6th (2) Imperial Cult (13/8 +68%)
Imperial Cult

1.625
13/8(+68%)
(2) Imperial Cult 13/8, 7/1, good second of 11 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 24 days ago. Dropping back in trip here no bad thing and should make his presence felt.
Has yet to win a race but he's compiling a solid profile in handicaps at up to 2m.
9
7th (9) Gentle Fire (25/1 -25%)
Gentle Fire

25
25/1(-25%)
(9) Gentle Fire 25/1, Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 28/1) 23 days ago, not ideally placed. Makes turf debut and while she's not discounted, one or two of there are more appealing.
Lurks on a decent mark based on AW exploits but conditions are a grey area.
5
8th (5) Largo Bay (14/1 -40%)
Largo Bay

14
14/1(-40%)
(5) Largo Bay 14/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 13/2 and visored for 1st time, below form seventh of 12 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 14 days ago, racing closer to pace than ideal. Still, he looks competitive on form.
Even if back in good order, he's had very little racing on soft ground.
13
9th (13) Ladypacksapunch (17/2 +39%)
Ladypacksapunch

8.5
17/2(+39%)
(13) Ladypacksapunch 17/2, Remains a maiden after 23 Flat runs. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at this course (14f, good) 16 days ago. Cheekpieces back on and needs to find something extra if she's to belatedly open her account.
Ran another good race at this track when fourth in a Class 2 recently.
10
10th (10) Uther Pendragon (28/1 -100%)
Uther Pendragon

28
28/1(-100%)
(10) Uther Pendragon 28/1, Course winner. Creditable nose second of 7 to Asense in handicap (4/1) at this course (11.6f, firm) 26 days ago. Likely to be on the premises once again.
Went close here last time but inconsistent and may get outstayed over this far.
11
11th (11) Cinzento (150/1 -275%)
Cinzento

150
150/1(-275%)
(11) Cinzento 150/1, Latest win at Kempton in June. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap (18/1) at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 33 days ago, slowly away. Must improve.
Six-time AW winner but 0-8 on grass and never placed.
7
12th (7) Gold Standard (125/1 -279%)
Gold Standard

125
125/1(-279%)
(7) Gold Standard 125/1, Creditable ¾-length second of 7 to Uther Pendragon in handicap at Lingfield (10f, AW, 5/1). Off 9 months and significantly up in trip here. Likely to find one or two too strong.
Only 3-42 and has only won on the AW; lacks a run and returns to turf.
12
13th (12) Eight Fifteen (16/1 +27%)
Eight Fifteen

16
16/1(+27%)
(12) Eight Fifteen 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in handicap at Lingfield (11.6f, heavy, 16/1) 58 days ago. Something to find on form.
Hasn't been overly convincing in her handicaps over 1m2f and 1m3f.
LTO Selection:

14:02 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 13f Race Class Flow

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

The hat-trick seeking Asense must enter calculations in her current mood, although there are grounds to take the four-year-old on now encountering her most testing conditions to date. With that in mind, it may be worth taking a chance on the returning ARTHALOT, who won under similar conditions off a 1lb lower mark at Lingfield in May 2021. It's How We Roll arrives in good form and is another to note.

Several to consider in this open-looking handicap. IT'S HOW WE ROLL has been knocking on the door of late and is taken to make a winning start for the James Evan yard. Imperial Cult has also been giving notice that a win is imminent and he is just about feared most, with Beggarman also high on the shortlist, despite failing to fire on his latest start. Arthalot could also have a part to play.

Although still a maiden, IMPERIAL CULT hasn't been doing a great deal wrong in handicaps and his turn looks near.

1st (4) Dallas Star (11/2 -144%)
Dallas Star

5.5
11/2(-144%)
(4) Dallas Star 11/2, Thrice-raced maiden. 9/2, third of 10 in maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to soft) 80 days ago. Should pick up a race before long and likely to be in the thick of things.
An 80-day absence is a tad worrying but 1m should be fine and he should go close on form.
1
2nd (1) Hot Fuss (5/4 +29%)
Hot Fuss

1.25
5/4(+29%)
(1) Hot Fuss 5/4, Lightly-raced winner. Successful at Salisbury in July. 5¾ lengths last of 6 to Al Musmak in listed race (22/1) at Haydock (8.2f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Big player back in calmer waters here.
Smart form; commands respect back at this level, for all that he's penalised.
7
3rd (7) Palace Green (7/1 -75%)
Palace Green

7
7/1(-75%)
(7) Palace Green 7/1, Once-raced maiden. Unseated rider in minor event at Newbury (8f, heavy, 22/1) on debut 10 days ago. Interesting that he was pitched into that traditionally informative race on debut and he's one to note in the betting.
Unseated leaving the stalls in a usually strong conditions race at Newbury.
2
4th (2) Calvert (11/2 +54%)
Calvert

5.5
11/2(+54%)
(2) Calvert 11/2, Twice-raced maiden. Third of 9 in minor event (evens) at Kempton (8f) 33 days ago. Will need to step up on that if he's to make it third time lucky.
Third in two runs over 1m, posting RPRs in the low 70s; needs to improve but early days.
5
5th (5) Daymer Bay (6/1 +40%)
Daymer Bay

6
6/1(+40%)
(5) Daymer Bay 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in maiden at Epsom (7f, good, 4/1) 35 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.
Consistent but would be receiving plenty of weight from two of these in a nursery.
6
6th (6) Maxim De Winter (150/1 -127%)
Maxim De Winter

150
150/1(-127%)
(6) Maxim De Winter 150/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in maiden at Goodwood (8f, good to firm, 50/1) 27 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Probably more one for handicaps in due course.
Down the field in his runs at Newbury (7f) and Goodwood (1m; again good).
8
7th (8) Flowering (14/1 +30%)
Flowering

14
14/1(+30%)
(8) Flowering 14/1, Foaled April 19. Masar filly. Closely related to useful 1¼m winner Cosmic Desert and half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Changing Colours. Market should point the way.
Well-bred newcomer from a top yard and interesting to see what the market makes of her.
3
8th (3) Chelsea Harbour (14/1 +0%)
Chelsea Harbour

14
14/1(+0%)
(3) Chelsea Harbour 14/1, Once-raced maiden. 18/1, fifth of 8 in minor event at Chelmsford City (8f) on debut 18 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Entitled to come on for that run and he's one to consider.
Lacked the gears to get involved at Chelmsford (1m) but is entitled to improve on that.
LTO Selection:

14:32 Bath Stakes (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

HOT FUSS has been highly tried since winning impressively at Salisbury in July and the son of Calyx could be hard to beat now eased back in grade, despite having to carry a 6lb penalty. Dallas Star and Calvert are others who arrive here with valid form claims, while Flowering is a newcomer to note. Palace Green unseated his rider at the start on his racecourse bow at Newbury and he should not be underestimated.

It would be something of an understatement to say that PALACE GREEN's Newbury debut didn't go to plan (unseated rider shortly after leaving the stalls), a race eventually won by his very promising stablemate Bracken's Laugh. The fact that he went to post for that traditionally warm novice event suggests that he has been showing up well at home and the hint should be taken if the market speaks in his favour. Hot Fuss sets the standard and is an obvious threat, while Dallas Star is also feared.

With soft ground holding no fears, perhaps HOT FUSS can defy a penalty back at a more realistic level.

(5) Dream Pirate 7/2, Blinkered for 1st time, improved to win 10-runner handicap at Yarmouth (8f, soft, 4/1) 11 days ago, all out. Solid claims if the headgear continues to have a positive effect.

Otago

6
6/1(-50%)
(1) Eton College 6/1, Won 7-runner handicap (9/2) at Ffos Las (8f, soft) 47 days ago, slowly away. Going through a good spell at present and worth chancing to go in again.

Ex-George Boughey maiden who's pulled hard in two runs over this trip for her current yard.
LTO Selection:

15:02 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

ETON COLLEGE has won two of his last three starts and a 3lb rise for the most recent of those victories may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Villalobos has been knocking hard on the door of late and is an obvious threat in a first-time visor. Racing Demon has also been running very well in defeat and should not be discounted, while Dream Pirate and Fact Or Fable complete the shortlist.

ETON COLLEGE is in top form and came with a strong late run to overcome a slow start at Ffos Las on his latest outing, so he gets the marginal vote in an open contest. Dream Pirate and Racing Demon look the main dangers.

Another very open handicap. Preference is for DREAM PIRATE in the hope he can carry on the good work after Yarmouth.

0-6 and starts out for another new yard now with lots to prove.
LTO Selection:

15:32 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Three-time C&D winner Lilandra is an appealing contender, while only a short head separated Paco's Pride (second) and Eye Of The Water (third) when they clashed here in June. However, preference is for ROUNDABOUT SILVER, who was a cosy winner over C&D in August and again rates as a serious player having finished a close third off this mark at Epsom 18 days ago.

ROUNDABOUT SILVER goes well here and fared best of those up with the pace at Epsom last time, so he gets the marginal vote over the consistent Paco's Pride in an open race. Eye of The Water is another one to consider.

Plenty with chances but it might pay to risk TRANQUILITY who came from well behind to make the frame at Ffos Las.

Newport Bay

5/1(+23%)
(4) Newport Bay 5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 6/1, fifth of 8 in nursery at Catterick (5f, soft) 9 days ago. Has something to find but the step up in trip should suit.
Gives the impression she'll improve for this extra yardage; one to consider.
LTO Selection:

16:02 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Off a mark of 72, Whoop Whoop (second) doesn't set the bar excruciatingly high but she had enough in hand over Crooked Crown (third) when they met over 5f at Ffos Las 18 days ago. Nevertheless, the form of WHITELEY WAY's penultimate effort has worked out well, given the winner subsequently landed a sales race at Newmarket. She faces nothing of that calibre here, and offers strong appeal on her nursery debut.

GOODEVENINGMRBOND may have found the race coming too soon at Haydock last time and he was impressive at Chepstow on his penultimate outing, so he's worth a chance to get back to winning ways having had more of a break. Whoop Whoop is the obvious danger and Newport Bay isn't without hope stepped up in trip.

Preference is for NEWPORT BAY, who looks likely to improve for this extended 5f. Goodeveningmrbond is second choice.

Has form figures of 1161 (all over C&D) for new yard this term; strong claims.
LTO Selection:

16:32 Bath Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Delagate This Lord has registered eight of his nine career wins at this course and it would be folly to suggest he isn't capable of adding to that tally despite running off 5lb higher than last month's C&D success. However, PENGUIN ISLAND is less exposed over sprint distances and, off just 2lb higher than her 5f win at Chepstow in July, Henry Candy's filly rates as a more intriguing option. Sergeant Pep and Magnificence are others to consider.

DELAGATE THIS LORD is really thriving for his current yard and he's still well treated on past exploits, so he's fancied to make it 4 course wins from his last 5 outings. Fellow last-time-out winner Buccabay is a definite threat and Penguin Island is worthy of respect.

The drop back in grade may well enable CRAZY LUCK to regain the winning thread. Recent C&D scorer Buccabay is second choice.

Not been anywhere near his best this year but he's too well handicapped to ignore.
LTO Selection:

17:05 Bath Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

ALMATY STAR cruised home to shed his maiden tag at cramped odds last time and he now returns to the handicapping ranks off a rating of 80. The son of Kodiac could have improvement in him, which makes him the one to side with. Kodi Red made a pleasing start to life under new trainer Darryll Holland when fourth at Doncaster and should be considered, while last-time-out victor Pop Dancer isn't out of it either.

ALMATY STAR made the most of a good opportunity to open his account at Lingfield recently and Roger Varian's charge is fancied to remain unbeaten at the minimum trip having just his second start in a handicap. Level Up can give the selection most to think about with his usual visor back on, ahead of Kodi Red and C&D winner this year Connie's Rose.

An open sprint. ALMATY STAR's long odds-on maiden win told us nothing new other than he's quick enough for 5f.

Lightly raced; off the mark at Ffos Las on last appearance; may well build on that win.
LTO Selection:

17:38 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

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

MISS DOLLY ROCKER showed plenty of promise to finish second on her handicap bow at Chepstow and she was kindly left on the same rating. The daughter of Frontiersman takes a drop in grade and she looks well placed to go well. Mambo Beat did it nicely in a class 6 event at Ffos Las and he should go well off a 4lb higher mark. Of the remainder, Orange Martini makes the most appeal.

JACK SPAROWE continues to go from strength to strength this term, and with his latest success worth marking up a touch (did well to come from the rear), John Butler's 4-y-o is fancied to make it 3 wins from his last 4 starts. Mambo Beat is talented but he's seemingly hard to train so he's tentatively put forward as the main danger given his frailties, with Swing To The Stars and Meleri rounding off the shortlist.

Unexposed filly SHOWY (nap) is taken to build on her solid C&D effort and go one better. Miss Dolly Rocker is second choice.

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.
