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

COME ON DU BERLAIS, who won a bumper at Ayr last May, ran three good races in defeat over hurdles for Gordon Elliott during her time in Ireland and, given this looks a little easier than some of those events, she rates a prime candidate to come out on top today. She debuts for an in-form yard and, with the trip and ground to suit, another bold showing is expected. Titanium Moon and recent Stratford winner Forever A Dove appeal most from the rest.

Fergal O'Brien has made a flying start to the new season and can notch another win courtesy of new recruit COME ON DU BERLAIS. Titanium Moon showed an aptitude for hurdling when second at Hexham recently and is second choice ahead of Peter Bowen bumper winner River of Joy.

The suggestion is TITANIUM MOON, who seemed to take pretty well to hurdling when second at Hexham recently.

Having proven his stamina and effectiveness on ground similar to what is forecast today, SCRUM DIDDLY is a key player in his bid for a quick-fire hat-trick. The Oliver Sherwood-trained gelding got off the mark over hurdles in good style when upped to 3m at Ludlow 15 days ago, before following up in a bloodless manner at Ffos Las last week. The fitting of cheekpieces (retained) has aided his cause and more success could be imminent. Mr Yeats and I Spy A Diva look the pick of the opposition.

Gary Hanmer has won 3 of the last 4 runnings of this so the suggestion is HILLVIEW who returned from a break with a good second at Uttoxeter recently. Aramax has found his feet for the Ben Haslam yard this spring and is second choice ahead of the hat-trick seeking Scrum Diddly and Stuart Crawford's Langdale Lane.

Scrum Diddly won in a canter at Ffos Las a week ago and is now 2-2 in handicaps but LANGDALE LANE also has plenty going for him.

15:30 Cartmel Handicap Chase (Class 3) 29f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

DUC DE BEAUCHENE is on a roll after following up last month's Wincanton success with a commanding performance to get up late and win the Norfolk National at Fakenham 20 days ago. A 4lb higher mark looks lenient in the context of this race and David Pipe's long-distance traveller looks the one to be on here. Stylish Moment is another last-time-out winner who is respected, even though he needs another personal best off 7lb higher. Chirico Vallis and Dee Star complete the shortlist.

CHIRICO VALLIS soon returned to form with a fine run at Newbury in March and can cash in a good mark back up in trip. The thriving Duc de Beauchene is the obvious threat, while Dee Star is expected to step up a gear now returned to Cartmel.

Being at the top of his form at present DUC DE BEAUCHENE is the one to beat although course specialist Dee Star looks a big threat.

AND THE NEW made all to bolt up by 18 lengths over 2m3f at Market Rasen in a class 4 event earlier in the month and he now carries 7lb extra, which is highly unlikely to stop him on that evidence and the veteran can cope with the step back in distance to make it a double. The main threat might be Whodini, who was also an impressive victor last time by seven lengths at Ayr and he is likely to be on the premises again, despite a 6lb rise. Return Ticket makes the most appeal of the remainder.

AND THE NEW got back on the scoreboard when a wide-margin winner at Market Rasen last week and remains well treated on old form. He can follow up. Whodini is progressive and may provide the chief threat.

Recent winner And The New remains well treated but LERMOOS LEGEND runs this track very well and has slipped to a very good mark.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

MARSHALLED has improved with every appearance since joining the Ben Haslam team and got back on the scoresheet at Newcastle recently. He showed good determination to go in then and is taken to defy a 6lb rise. De Barley Basket will be fresh from a break and has a good strike-rate over fences. He has to be considered a big threat, with Gaelik Coast possibly the pick of the remainder.

DE BARLEY BASKET has an excellent record over fences and ran well when last seen 6 months ago so he looks the one to beat despite the presence of a couple of well- handicapped rivals in Fire Away and Tonto's Spirit, who should both benefit from a return to this track. Marshalled is another one to consider.

Preference is for recent Newcastle winner MARSHALLED (nap) who is in career-best form for his new yard. Fire Away is next best.

SO BE IT seemed to throw away his race when idling badly on the run in and getting touched off by a short head at Perth last time out, and he is taken to gain compensation on this occasion. The seven-year-old can get off the mark at the 10th time of asking, with Walkin Out looking best placed to chase him home, along with point-to-point winner The Creadan Rogue.

SO BE IT came agonisingly close to landing a gamble at Perth 12 days ago, idling having looked in control and collared on the post. That was a much-improved display and a repeat of that level should be enough. Walkin Out's record in points is a good one and she's feared most.

Two promising pointers make most appeal with WALKIN OUT preferred to The Creadan Rogue.

A promising runner-up on his handicap debut at Ffos Las, KARAVOMYLOS must hold every chance if building upon that effort for his in-form connections. The drop in trip is another plus as he looks to see off the likes of Benito and Colonel Manderson, who looked as though he was going to finish second when unseating his rider at the last at Perth.

BENITO, who was successful over this C&D last summer, looks the way to go having shaped as though his turn was again near when runner-up over an inadequate trip at Sedgefield. Karavomylos looks a big threat following an improved display on his recent handicap debut, while it's possible that Bells Express will also raise his game now making the switch to handicap company.

Stable-companions IOLANI and Wearelongterm have good claims and are preferred in that order.

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.
