(2) Copper Bay 2.75/1, Once-raced filly. 25/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at this C&D on debut 23 days ago, green but not knocked about. Open to progress and claims in a thin maiden.

16
16/1(-45%)
(6) Pink Stripes 16/1, Poor filly. No better than mid-field in 8 Flat runs, most recently when seventh of 9 in nursery (20/1) at this course (5f) 109 days ago. Can make more impact in this company.

1.88
1.88/1(+62%)
(1) Empire Of The Sun 1.88/1, Well held in a pair of minor events in the autumn (since been gelded) and he'll need to show more to get off the mark here.

14
14/1(-115%)
(8) Take My Breath 14/1, Twice-raced filly. 100/1, tenth of 11 in minor event at this C&D 23 days ago. More needed.

3.33
3.33/1(-11%)
(5) Come On Girl 3.33/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap (2/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 29 days ago. Blinkers back on. One to consider.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Starsong 8/1, Latest win at Southwell in November. 16/1, sixth of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 21 days ago. Not the most straightforward ride and others are more persuasive.
1

1.62
1.62/1(+35%)
(1) Beauzon 1.62/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 9/1, soon back to form when third of 8 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW) 21 days ago. Respected from same mark.
11
3rd (11) (14/1 -56%) Mustaffiz
14
14/1(-56%)
(11) Mustaffiz 14/1, Free-going sort produced one of his better efforts for this yard when fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago, never nearer. Possible he could make greater impact from a mark that has slid further again.
6
4th (6) (28/1 -133%) Sir Rodneyredblood
28
28/1(-133%)
(6) Sir Rodneyredblood 28/1, 5-time course winner, most recently in September. Poor efforts on last 3 outings and needs to improve on recent showings to figure here.

5th (4) (40/1 -100%) Fighting Temeraire
40
40/1(-100%)
(4) Fighting Temeraire 40/1, Course winner. Latest win at Nottingham in July. Seventh of 8 in handicap (16/1) at this course (7f) 23 days ago, slowly away. Recent efforts suggest age is catching up with him.

3.5
3.5/1(+75%)
(9) Mashaan 3.5/1, Course winner. 20/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this course (5f), inadequate test. Becoming well treated but likely best watched after 100 days off the track.

7th (7) (8/1 +0%) Nubough
8
8/1(+0%)
(7) Nubough 8/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2021. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (5f, 17/2) 39 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Back on handy mark and could make more of an impact here.
10
8th (10) (12/1 -85%) Desert Boots
12
12/1(-85%)
(10) Desert Boots 12/1, Ungenuine type. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. Again on the back foot after typically slow start when seventh of 10 in handicap at this C&D 9 days ago and tends to need plenty to drop right for him.
8
9th (8) (18/1 -50%) Corinthia Knight
18
18/1(-50%)
(8) Corinthia Knight 18/1, Three wins from 18 runs last year but seemingly just going through the motions at present and he'd be a surprise winner despite much-reduced mark.

10th (5) (22/1 -175%) Josies Kid
22
22/1(-175%)
(5) Josies Kid 22/1, Sixteen runs since sole win in 2021. Well treated on the pick of his form but seems in a bit of a lull at present and others make more appeal.
3

12
12/1(-71%)
(3) Bluebells Boy 12/1, Won C&D maiden in December but failed to beat a rival in 8-runner event on handicap debut here (7f, 4/1) 23 days ago. Bounce back called for.

1
2nd (1) (7/1 +56%) Protected Guest
7
7/1(+56%)
(1) Protected Guest 7/1, Three wins from 15 runs last year. Down the field both starts this year, last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 16/1) 23 days ago. Has something to prove at present.

1.5
1.5/1(-20%)
(7) Bit Harsh 1.5/1, Course winner. 11/8, completed hat-trick in 7-runner handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 18 days ago, keeping on well. Can score again in his current form.

4
4/1(+33%)
(5) Brasca 4/1, Course winner. Blinkered for 1st time, back on track when fourth of 9 in handicap (14/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 39 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Ralph Beckett. Has dropped to a tempting mark.
6
5th (6) (12/1 +14%) Bearaway
12
12/1(+14%)
(6) Bearaway 12/1, Latest win at Windsor in October. 33/1, step back in right direction when 3 lengths fourth of 7 to Bit Harsh in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 18 days ago. Needs to build on latest effort.

7
7/1(+22%)
(2) Captain Kane 7/1, Seven wins from 13 runs last year. 8/1, offered little when seventh of 8 in juvenile event at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) on hurdling bow 26 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. Could bounce back on the level.
8
7th (8) (80/1 -100%) Cedar Cage
80
80/1(-100%)
(8) Cedar Cage 80/1, Off further 12 months since stable debut, again failed to beat a rival in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 100/1) 12 days ago. Makes little appeal.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(9) Sausalito 0.8/1, 7/1 and visored for 1st time, off the mark in 9-runner minor event at this C&D 9 days ago, suited by strongly-run race. Could get a decent pace to aim at again, so he's a major player.

2nd (5) (9/1 -20%) Crazy Spin
9
9/1(-20%)
(5) Crazy Spin 9/1, Course winner. 13/2, 1¼ lengths second of 12 to Red Evelyn in minor event at this course (1m) 9 days ago, going with little fluency but keeping on. Back up in trip.

6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(4) Channel Packet 6.5/1, Course winner. 10/3, only fourth of 6 in handicap at this course (1m) 15 days ago. Had been running well previously, so can bounce back returned to this grade.
1
4th (1) (5.5/1 +0%) Red Evelyn
5.5
5.5/1(+0%)
(1) Red Evelyn 5.5/1, Ridden by Rose Dawes, made all in 12-runner minor event at this course (1m, 2/1) 9 days ago by 1¼ lengths from Crazy Spin. Can make another bold bid, though failed to stay on only previous try at this trip.
3
5th (3) (40/1 -60%) Cape Cornwall Rose
40
40/1(-60%)
(3) Cape Cornwall Rose 40/1, 12/1 and hooded for 1st time, last of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) in October. Tongue strap on 1st time. Has work to do as she returns from 117 days off.

33
33/1(-106%)
(7) Guitar 33/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in December. Not in the same form so far this year, though, eighth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 8 days ago. Back up in trip.

9
9/1(-50%)
(8) Lake Sand 9/1, Course winner. With visor reapplied, pulled hard when sixth of 9 in minor event at Kempton (1m) 24 days ago. Could fare better returned to this longer trip with cheekpieces back on.
2
8th (2) (14/1 -17%) Book Of Verse
14
14/1(-17%)
(2) Book Of Verse 14/1, In change of headgear, ran better than for a while when 2 lengths third of 12 to Red Evelyn in minor event at this course (1m, 14/1) 9 days ago, nearest finish. Task is now to back up his latest run.
LTO Selection:
19:40 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(2) Eternal Hope 1.2/1, Highly promising sort. Third of 7 in minor event (11/2) at Wolverhampton (9.5f) on debut 12 days ago, running on. Open to plenty of improvement and she should have a big part to play.
7
2nd (7) (3.5/1 -75%) Mountain Song
3.5
3.5/1(-75%)
(7) Mountain Song 3.5/1, Promising type. Second of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 5/6) 12 days ago, finishing just ahead of re-opposing stablemate Eternal Hope. Likely to improve and bold show likely.
3
3rd (3) (1.38/1 +50%) Glowing Sky
1.38
1.38/1(+50%)
(3) Glowing Sky 1.38/1, Once-raced filly. 9/2, fifth of 13 in minor event at Newmarket (7f, soft) on debut in October, not knocked about. This step up in trip promises to help unlock improvement and she merits respect.
6
4th (6) (33/1 -106%) Midsummer Dance
33
33/1(-106%)
(6) Midsummer Dance 33/1, Once-raced filly. 16/1, sixth of 9 in minor event at Kempton (8f) on debut 21 days ago, not knocked about. Up in trip and should progress but yard fields a more appealing candidate in Glowing Sky on this occasion.

80
80/1(-100%)
(1) Afloat 80/1, 27,000 gns yearling, 50,000 gns 2-y-o, Sea The Moon filly. Half-sister to 10.5f winner Heft and 1m/9f winner Fragile Planet. Yard saddles another newcomer in Grand Duchess Olga and the betting should offer clues with regard to the perceived pecking order.
4
6th (4) (80/1 -142%) Grand Duchess Olga
80
80/1(-142%)
(4) Grand Duchess Olga 80/1, Sir Percy filly. Sister to 1¼m-1¾m winner Peripeteia and half-sister to useful 1m-1¼m winner Arch Moon. Dam 1¼m winner who stayed 1½m. Afloat is presumably the stable first-string, albeit the betting should point the way.
5

250
250/1(-150%)
(5) Kalama Sunrise 250/1, Once-raced filly. Last of 9 in minor event at Kempton (8f, 66/1) on debut 21 days ago, very slowly away. Up in trip and needs to raise her game considerably.

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.
