1st (4)  (2.25/1 +68%)High Moon |
2.25/1(+68%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) High Moon 2.25/1, Early casualty on Boxing Day and bit more to find on these terms but certainly has the ability to win a race or two. | |||
2nd (1)  (3.5/1 -115%)Bob's Bar |
3.5/1(-115%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Bob's Bar 3.5/1, Fair runs under penalty since his reappearance success at Hexham and this doesn't look much of a race, so he should be bang there. | |||
3rd (5)  (33/1 -136%)Zestful Hope |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Zestful Hope 33/1, Slipped up in Market Rasen bumper on debut in November. | |||

0.83/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Ask The Doc 0.83/1, Has made a promising start over hurdles for this yard, chasing home a subsequent handicap winner at Sedgefield and filling the same runner-up spot at Doncaster. Looks the one to beat. | |||
5th (3)  (66/1 -100%)Fishing For Likes |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fishing For Likes 66/1, Runner-up in a point in May but well held in Market Rasen bumper last month. |

50/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Balkotic 50/1, Flat winner in France who showed fair form at best over hurdles in France. Well beaten both starts for new yard at up to 19.3f and hopes very much pinned on this increase in trip sparking improvement. | |||
1st (7)  (40/1 -82%)Late Date |
40/1(-82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Late Date 40/1, Confirmed some ability remains when runner-up over 3m at Perth in August. However, commensurate with his hit-and-miss profile he has failed to back that up in 2 subsequent appearances. | |||
2nd (9)  (12/1 -50%)Tanora |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Tanora 12/1, Yet to win a race of any description and while her chase debut at Sedgefield in November wasn't completely devoid of encouragement, more is needed back hurdling in a tongue strap following a wind op. | |||
3rd (2)  (5.5/1 -57%)Bullion Boss |
5.5/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bullion Boss 5.5/1, Opened his account in 3m Musselburgh handicap last January and positive start to this season when fourth of 12 off this mark at Newcastle (23.7f). Should make his presence felt. | |||
4th (13)  (33/1 +18%)Lady Vinetta |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Lady Vinetta 33/1, Merely hinted at ability in trio of novice hurdles and has failed to make an impact since switched to handicaps. Looks set for another struggle, unless the fitting of cheekpieces does the trick. | |||
5th (4)  (3.5/1 +36%)Oliver's Island |
3.5/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Oliver's Island 3.5/1, Winner of this race 12 months ago and very nearly belied odds of 50/1 when close on return at Uttoxeter in November. Will be a danger to all if none the worse for recent Wetherby tumble. | |||
6th (11)  (3/1 +25%)Fame And Hope |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Fame And Hope 3/1, Winless following 13 attempts under Rules, but she chased Oliver's Island home off 7 lb higher in this race 12 months ago. Also found just one too good on return at Hexham and she's a key player. | |||
7th (6)  (2.75/1 +31%)Derrick D'Anjou |
2.75/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Derrick D'Anjou 2.75/1, Winner of just one of his 25 starts overall, but he put in a solid shift when hitting the crossbar off this mark at Wetherby (3m) on Monday. Reproduction of that would put him firmly in the picture. | |||
|F| (12)  (16/1 -60%)The Bravest |
16/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) The Bravest 16/1, Some fair form to his name on the Flat and bettered previous efforts in this sphere when sixth in a 17-runner handicap here (19.3f) 18 days ago. Each-way shout if coping with this step up in trip. | |||
|F| (1)  (22/1 -144%)Court At Slip |
22/1(-144%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Court At Slip 22/1, Showed ability sole start in bumpers, but has failed to make a meaningful impact in novice hurdles and needs to raise his game now pitched into a handicap with cheekpieces on for the first time. | |||
|PU| (14)  (33/1 -50%)Great Raffles |
33/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Great Raffles 33/1, Yet to show any worthwhile form and, 2 lb 'wrong' at the weights, this 6-y-o is readily passed over. | |||
|PU| (5)  (40/1 -21%)Trimmers Lane |
40/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Trimmers Lane 40/1, Point winner who left previous Rules form well behind when scoring at Wetherby last December. However, he didn't show much on his reappearance at Southwell and it's probably best to look elsewhere. | |||
|PU| (10)  (50/1 -100%)Granny Mags |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Granny Mags 50/1, Runner-up on second of her 2 starts between the flags, but yet to shine under Rules and significant step forward needed now upped in trip for this handicap debut. |

2.5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Rapper 2.5/1, Improved during 2019/20 campaign and encouraging fourth on Aintree chase debut last term. However, didn't offer much resistance when second of two finishers back in this sphere at Ascot in November. | |||
2nd (5)  (4/1 +53%)Thatsy |
4/1(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Thatsy 4/1, Useful ex-Irish hurdler. Yet to score over fences and efforts for this yard hardly brimming with promise. | |||
3rd (4)  (1.88/1 -7%)Tommie Beau |
1.88/1(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Tommie Beau 1.88/1, Continued on the upgrade as he completed a 4-timer sent chasing after 5 months off in 3m Fakenham handicap in October. Backed that up with a brace of runner-up efforts and can go well. | |||
4th (6)  (25/1 +38%)Trevelyn's Corn |
25/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Trevelyn's Corn 25/1, Expensive point recruit who went the wrong way for Paul Nicholls after a winning a maiden hurdle at Wincanton in March 2019. Off over 2 years and offered little on last month's chase bow. | |||
|PU| (3)  (3.33/1 +0%)No Anxiety |
3.33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) No Anxiety 3.33/1, Doubled his tally over fences when landing a 3-runner Hereford (25.2f) handicap back from a break in October. Reportedly bled back at that venue a month later but big player here if all is well. |

0.62/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Socialist Agenda 0.62/1, Impressive in winning all 3 bumpers starts in 2020 and has made a promising start over hurdles, setting the pace in messy Cheltenham contest last time. Big shout back down in class. | |||
2nd (1)  (2.12/1 +6%)Malpas |
2.12/1(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Malpas 2.12/1, Improved in the jumping department to land 17f novice at Carlisle on return. Fair runs in handicaps since and should go well back in this company despite his penalty. | |||
3rd (2)  (12/1 +70%)Fenland Tiger |
12/1(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fenland Tiger 12/1, Has shaped like a stayer in a pair of bumpers but isn't over-faced for hurdles debut. | |||
4th (3)  (25/1 -257%)Rains Of Castamere |
25/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Rains Of Castamere 25/1, Fair Flat winner who struck again twice in 2021. Didn't jump well on only other go over hurdles for Mick Channon a year ago, although this is easier. | |||
5th (5)  (22/1 -38%)Lindwall |
22/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lindwall 22/1, Fair stayer on Flat, got an AW hat-trick up for Sir Mark Prescott in October. Well held in a couple of juvenile hurdles this term and handicaps might be more his bag. |

22/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Choctaw Brave 22/1, Looks a poor maiden at this early stage. | |||
1st (10)  (5.5/1 -38%)Tumbling Dice |
5.5/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Tumbling Dice 5.5/1, Has yet to threaten following 12 starts overall, and jumping lacked fluency when third in a 4-runner affair at Newcastle in November. | |||
2nd (4)  (0.73/1 +61%)Spot On Soph |
0.73/1(+61%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Spot On Soph 0.73/1, Career best when winning 12-runner handicap chase at this course (19.2f, good) 18 days ago. Worth a crack at this longer trip and is one for shortlist. | |||
3rd (8)  (16/1 +36%)Hidden Cargo |
16/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hidden Cargo 16/1, Remains a maiden after 26 starts and was well below best on return last month. | |||
4th (1)  (14/1 -40%)Path To Freedom |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Path To Freedom 14/1, Still to get his head in front and below par on return from 6 months off here last month. May have needed that but others more convincing. Cheekpieces back on. | |||
5th (3)  (11/1 -175%)Catlin |
11/1(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Catlin 11/1, Bounced back to form when taking 2-runner handicap at Newcastle (23.4f, good to firm) 44 days ago. This is more competitive but she's likely to make another bold show. Had wind operation. | |||
6th (2)  (10/1 +0%)Chase The Wind |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Chase The Wind 10/1, Now 8 lb lower than for his latest success at Uttoxeter in April and, not disgraced at Market Rasen (23.9f) last time, this veteran is not out of things. | |||
|PU| (5)  (16/1 -129%)Whitechurch |
16/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Whitechurch 16/1, Point winner who left chase debut form behind when third in Ludlow handicap (23.8f) in November. Unseated early on tried in cheekpieces here since, but possibilities if getting round this time. | |||
|PU| (9)  (22/1 +21%)Iskabeg Lane |
22/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Iskabeg Lane 22/1, Temperamental sort. Not scored since 2019 and hard to be encouraged by last month's Hexham return. | |||
|PU| (7)  (33/1 -50%)The Very Thing |
33/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) The Very Thing 33/1, Long-standing maiden who has cut little ice in either start over fences. |

1st (7)  (5.5/1 +45%)Alright Marlene |
5.5/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Alright Marlene 5.5/1, Remains a maiden, but she posted respectable fourth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield on return. Not so good back there next time but is the type to bounce back quickly after a wind operation. | |||
2nd (3)  (3.33/1 +45%)El Jefe |
3.33/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) El Jefe 3.33/1, Finally put it all together at Sedgefield last month, value for a bit more than the winning margin having conceded ground at the last 2 flights. Not in same form since so bounce back required. | |||
3rd (14)  (22/1 +33%)Snowed In |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Snowed In 22/1, Veteran who is a 3-time C&D winner and scored at Sedgefield in May. Hasn't been threatening to add to his tally in recent starts, though and is out of the weights here. | |||
4th (6)  (3.5/1 +22%)Bestiarius |
3.5/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bestiarius 3.5/1, Fair hurdler who showed he retains ability despite jumping poorly when third at Hexham on belated reappearance. Built on that when runner-up at Newcastle next time so each-way claims upped 3 lb. | |||
5th (9)  (28/1 -56%)Jamil |
28/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Jamil 28/1, Modest at best on the Flat and has offered little over hurdles in recent weeks. Tongue tied for handicap debut but percentage call is to look elsewhere. | |||
6th (13)  (5.5/1 +39%)Ex S'Elance |
5.5/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Ex S'Elance 5.5/1, Limited on the whole but both efforts for this yard have offered some encouragement, third of 14 at Newcastle (16.2f, good) 23 days ago. Could run into a place. | |||
7th (2)  (16/1 -33%)Captain Moirette |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Captain Moirette 16/1, Ended last season out of sorts and both efforts this term for new yard have hardly hinted a revival is imminent. Plenty to prove at present so hopes pinned on first-time blinkers. | |||
8th (5)  (100/1 -150%)Up With The Play |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Up With The Play 100/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. in Ireland. Placed on hurdle debut there in March but little impact under both codes since, struggling when falling 2 out at this track 18 days ago. | |||
9th (1)  (9/1 +10%)Ilaya |
9/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ilaya 9/1, Dual winner in 2019/20 who was possibly unsuited by conditions when a never-dangerous sixth at Newcastle in November. Down another 3 lb, so every chance she can make her presence felt down in grade. | |||
10th (8)  (20/1 +0%)Get Phar |
20/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Get Phar 20/1, Placed 4 times in handicap hurdles at up to 25f for Eoin Griffin during the spring. Little encouragement dropped to this trip for current yard so best to look elsewhere. | |||
11th (12)  (25/1 -108%)Motahassen |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Motahassen 25/1, Modest Flat winner who is related to a winning hurdler, but he has cut little ice in a trio of starts in this sphere to date. Could be seen in a better light now handicapping. | |||
12th (10)  (28/1 -40%)Shamrock Wine |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Shamrock Wine 28/1, No great shakes on the Flat and while she stepped up on her hurdles debut when second at Sedgefield, her latest effort over C&D represented a step in the wrong direction. Hood on for handicap bow. | |||
13th (11)  (66/1 -100%)Comber Mill |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Comber Mill 66/1, Not scored for over 2 years and efforts back in the spring offered little encouragement. Best watched on return from 9 months off the track. | |||
|PU| (4)  (11/1 -340%)Baltic Baron |
11/1(-340%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Baltic Baron 11/1, Fairly useful 1m winner on the level. Took a step forward on qualifying run when runner-up at Sedgefield in November and he rates a likely improver sent handicapping on the back of a wind operation. |

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.
