13:55 Carlisle Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

The fact that HOUI CHERIE was able to score by 15 lengths over 2m4f at Ffos Las on her latest outing has to make her of interest here, even though she must shoulder top weight for her handicap debut. Dr Shirocco is feared most on the basis that he has performed well for second over fences the last twice and gets in here under a light weight. Danny The Fence rates best of a modest remainder.

HOUI CHERIE bolted up in a Ffos Las maiden last month and may well be capable of better now handicapping. Dr Shirocco and Danny The Fence can battle out minor honours.

It could be worth taking a chance on BAGHDAD CENTRAL despite two disappointing runs this time. Houi Cherie should also go well.

Only denied by half a length when sent off favourite over an extended 1m7f at Hexham last week, a stiffer stamina test looks set to suit MOONACURA on this occasion and it could well pay to side with the Stuart Coltherd-trained six-year-old off 3lb higher. Lisloran has to be of interest following an emphatic win at Newcastle, while Everyday Champagne is another to bear in mind.

STORM TIGER has taken well to fences, faring by far the best of those ridden from off the pace when third here 2 weeks ago, so could be the answer. Recent Newcastle winner Lisloran is another to consider, while Get Going was a close third off this mark at Hexham.

The vote goes to LISLORAN, who made it 3-6 over fences with his front-running win at Newcastle. Storm Tiger is feared most.

A case can be made for several of these, including Grain D'oudairies, who bolted up over an extended 2m at Bangor when last seen in November. It is likely there is more in his locker, but LARGY SHARK showed his appreciation for the rise to this sort of trip when getting off the mark at Ayr and he is marginally preferred. His stablemate Langdale Lane adds further spice to the mix, as does Fly By Milan.

An interesting race of its type. GRAIN D'OUDAIRIES looked potentially useful when making a winning hurdling debut in a good time at Bangor back in November and is open to plenty of improvement, so he's selected to defy a penalty. Fly By Milan scored with a bit up his sleeve at Hexham and warrants respect, as does Largy Shark, who quickened clear in fine style at Ayr.

An interesting novice hurdle. GRAIN D'OUDAIRIES created a good impression at Bangor in November and make it 2-2 in this sphere.

Galop De Chasse found only an unexposed chaser too strong when filling the runner-up spot at Wincanton but though he's worthy of consideration eased 1lb in the handicap, CORNERSTONE LAD edges the vote. Micky Hammond's stable stalwart was far from disgraced in a 0-135 contest at Haydock last time out and from 8lb below his last winning mark and in slightly calmer waters, he can defy top weight. The King Of May is another to consider.

CHAMP DE GANE was in full control when departing at the last at Ayr last month and it's possible we haven't seen the best of him yet. He is taken to score. Galop de Chasse heads the list of dangers.

Top of the list is CHAMP DE GANE, who is unexposed in this sphere and was 10l clear when falling at the last at Ayr last month.

CURLEY FINGER bounced back to form when winning over 3m at Musselburgh a couple of weeks ago and Rebecca Menzies' six-year-old, who remains unexposed, could have more to offer from a 5lb raised mark. Court Dreaming was last seen winning over the larger obstacles here and remains fairly treated judged on his peak hurdles form. He must go on the shortlist along with Yellowstone Park, who has Brian Hughes on top for the first time.

HARIBO COLLONGES took a step forward when third upped to 20.6f on his latest start at Market Rasen and, with the potential to do better still now faced with an even stiffer test, he is taken to make a winning start for the Patrick Neville yard. Cases can also be made for the majority of his rivals, not least the 11-y-o Captain Zebo, who has been given a real chance by the handicapper, while Aazza and Yellowstone Park are others with decent claims.

The vote goes to CURLEY FINGER (nap) who was a brave winner over 3m at Musselburgh and is still unexposed in staying handicaps.

The Nicky Richards stable is in fine form and this looks like an ideal opportunity for TFOU to continue the good run as he returns to a more suitable trip, having been outstayed over further at Kelso last time out. A determined winner over C&D on his penultimate start, Knocknamona can uphold form with Paddy The Horse (fourth), while Operation Overlord must enter the equation as well.

OPERATION OVERLORD and Tfou, both of whom have low mileage, could be the pair to concentrate on. The latter is likely to appreciate dropping back in trip here after finishing second over 23.4f at Kelso and he is greatly respected. However. the vote goes to Lucinda Russell's charge, who left the impression that he could be about to come good in this sphere when fourth at Ayr in February and is lurking on a potentially handy mark. Chasing debutante Wild Polly is best of the rest.

In a tricky race MAID O'MALLEY is chosen to gain her first win of the season on her second run since wind surgery.

A comfortable winner over C&D in February 2022, DUTY CALLS didn't manage to get his head in front again until bouncing back to form when scoring over fences at Kelso a fortnight ago, and he could be well placed to strike again on his return to the smaller obstacles. Irish raider Don't Talk can have a big say, while Artic Row was getting into contention when falling four out at Newcastle and is another to warrant consideration.

Cases can be made for a few but ARTIC ROW was unable to prove himself as still ahead of the handicapper following a 4 lb rise when stumbling and falling soon after 4 out at Newcastle 10 days ago. Providing he's none the worse from that spill, Nick Alexander's charge is fancied to double his tally. Limited Reserve may well emerge as the main threat, with Duty Calls and Burrows Hall also considered.

Burrows Hall can resume his progression back over shorter but narrow preference is for fellow lightly raced type ARTIC ROW.

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.
