3rd (5) (14/1 +50%) Light And Dark |
14/1(+50%) | (5) Light And Dark 14/1, 6-y-o who doubled career tally from a 1 lb lower mark at Kempton (7f) in October 2020.

9/1(+10%) | (6) Above 9/1, Course winner. 9/2, respectable second of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (6f, good) 12 days ago, keeping on. Return to 7f will hold no fears back on AW. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3/1(-20%) | (2) Mukha Magic 3/1, Arrives here on a roll, making it 4 wins from last 6 starts in good style at Nottingham (14f) 16 days ago, staying on well. Rider's claim off-sets his subsequent weight rise and he's a player once more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3.5/1(-5%) | (3) The Tron 3.5/1, 5/1, creditable third of 11 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 11 days ago. Arrives in good form and this is a weak event, so it looks a good opportunity for him. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

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.
