50/1(+0%)
(4) Busselton 50/1, Possesses a decent strike rate over fences (3-8), but he came in a well-held fourth in Irish Arkle (40/1) at Leopardstown last month. This is a big step up in grade and best to look elsewhere.

33/1(+0%)

(6) Sassy Yet Classy 9/1, Resumed winning ways at Punchestown in November and excellent neck second of 21 to Futurum Regem at Navan (20f) following month. Needs considering after her break.

40
40/1(-43%)
(3) Dallas Des Pictons 40/1, Looked to be running into form until only fourteenth of 24 in handicap at Leopardstown (24f) 40 days ago. No surprise to see him bounce back now.

28/1(+30%)
(21) Kansas City Chief 28/1, Veteran but better than ever this term, and he garnered a third success in 3m Plumpton handicap only three days ago. Respected turned out quickly under a 5 lb penalty.

28
28/1(+0%)
(18) Pileon 28/1, Back to winning ways at Sandown before fair seventh over C&D in January. Also runner-up in Martin Pipe in 2020, so he's not entirley dismissed after his break.

7
7/1(+13%)
(24) Dunboyne 7/1, Low-mileage 7-y-o who has shaped really well in 3m Leopardstown handicaps on last 2 runs, suffering poor run each time. Will relish this test of stamina. Major contender for yard with fine record.

Tullybeg

28
28/1(-40%)

40
40/1(+0%)
(23) The Cob 40/1, Three-time winner last season who got back on track in first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 17 at Sandown last month. Possibilities.

50
50/1(-100%)

Janidil

12
12/1(+0%)
(5) Janidil 12/1, Smart hurdler who landed Grade 1 novice chase at Fairyhouse on final start last spring. Hard to knock consistency in trio of starts this campaign but may have to settle for a minor role once more.

Eldorado Allen

14
14/1(+13%)
(3) Eldorado Allen 14/1, Has taken his form up a notch this term, bagging Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter and best effort yet when taking Gr 2 Denman Chase at Newbury (23.4f) in February. Holds each-way claims.

Fanion D'Estruval

28
28/1(+30%)
(4) Fanion D'Estruval 28/1, Improved performer this season, resuming winning ways at Newbury (19.8f) prior to pair of placed efforts, latterly when third in Gr 1 Ascot Chase. However, came up well short in this 12 months ago.

16/1(+20%)
(6) Melon 16/1, High-class chaser who capitalised on drop back to Gr 2 level when landing Red Mills Chase at Gowran latest, making all and winning easily. Boasts solid Festival record but likely to find few too good.

Shan Blue

10
10/1(+0%)
(9) Shan Blue 10/1, Landed Grade 1 Kauto Star as a novice and in process of delivering a most visually impressive performance when falling 3 out in Charlie Hall in October. Absent since but he's fascinating nevertheless.

Conflated

7
7/1(-8%)
(2) Conflated 7/1, Smart effort when landing 2½m Naas handicap and stepped up again to land Irish Gold Cup from Minella Indo in February. Overall strength of that form questionable but good showing likely back in trip.

Thyme Hill

5.5
5.5/1(-22%)

Paisley Park

8.5
8.5/1(-6%)
(7) Paisley Park 8.5/1, High-class hurdler who won this in 2019 and confirmed himself no back number when gaining third Cleeve Hurdle victory from Champ in January. Slow start evident again then a worry, but he's respected.

Champ

5.5
5.5/1(-10%)
(1) Champ 5.5/1, RSA Chase winner in 2020 who proved he remains equally effective over timber when winning the Long Walk on return. Creditable second behind resurgent Paisley Park in Cleeve since and not discounted.

33/1(+18%)
(3) Home By The Lee 33/1, Smart handicap chaser who is unexposed as a staying hurdler and pulled clear of remainder when runner-up to Royal Kahala in Gr 2 Galmoy Hurdle (24.4f) latest. Still, this demands a whole lot more.

Koshari

100
100/1(-25%)
(5) Koshari 100/1, Smart on his day and ran right up to his best when running out an 80/1 winner of an Aintree handicap (24.7f) on yard debut in November. However, likely to fall short in this much stronger contest.

Royal Kahala

5.5
5.5/1(+8%)
(10) Royal Kahala 5.5/1, Low-mileage, improving mare who added to her Leopardstown Gr 3 success when taking Gr 2 Galmoy Hurdle (24.4f) in January. Could have more to offer at this trip and any easing of ground will help.

Song For Someone

33
33/1(+0%)
(8) Song For Someone 33/1, Very smart hurdler who bounced back to best to finish placed in pair of Grade 2s since returning this winter. Latest Sandown run in February most disappointing, though, and likely to fall short here.

Fancy Foundations

22
22/1(-22%)
(17) Fancy Foundations 22/1, Won first couple of starts over fences but below-par fifth of 8 in minor event chase when last seen at Navan 3 months ago, so needs to get back on track. Another handicap debutant for Gordon Elliott.

Coole Cody

22
22/1(+12%)
(8) Coole Cody 22/1, Tough front runner who has bagged a couple of similar events around here, including Racing Post Gold Cup in December. Not at his best on last couple of starts but impossible to discount.

Imperial Alcazar

3.5
3.5/1(+36%)
(4) Imperial Alcazar 3.5/1, Very useful hurdler who jumped much better than previously when opening his account in this sphere over C&D on Trials Day. Up 8 lb for that success but there's every chance he will be in the mix.

Spiritofthegames

12
12/1(+25%)
(18) Spiritofthegames 12/1, Regular in competitive handicaps and finished with running left when mid-field in the Paddy Power here. Back on track last time after a couple of below-par efforts so certainly not dismissed off 136.

Stolen Silver

18
18/1(+18%)
(11) Stolen Silver 18/1, Made an excellent start for this yard, scoring at Market Rasen in October before an excellent second here next time. Not dismissed having finished with running left when third at Wincanton last time.

Celebre D'allen

4
4/1(+20%)
(14) Celebre D'allen 4/1, Off 2 years but stylish winner of two Haydock handicap hurdles for his current yard in December. Completed hat-trick on his first start over fences in Britain last time so rates a leading player.

Slate House

40
40/1(-21%)
(19) Slate House 40/1, Stopped the slide at in blinkers when runner-up at Wincanton and filled that same spot next start at Taunton. However finished a disappointing fourth at Ludlow recently and so has plenty to prove.
13
7th (13) The Glancing Queen (4/1 +0%)
The Glancing Queen

4
4/1(+0%)
(13) The Glancing Queen 4/1, Likeable mare who has impressed over fences this term, making it 2-2 in a listed mares' event at Warwick in December. Unable to live with L'Homme Presse in Dipper last time but this more suitable.
9
8th (9) Schiehallion Munro (33/1 +18%)
Schiehallion Munro

33
33/1(+18%)
(9) Schiehallion Munro 33/1, Likeable sort who confirmed the promise of his reappearance when winning at Wetherby on Boxing Day. Followed up on the back of a 4 lb rise there last month but this is much more competitive.
15
9th (15) Adrimel (7/1 +56%)
Adrimel

7
7/1(+56%)
(15) Adrimel 7/1, Grade 2 winning hurdler last season and seemingly revitalised in blinkers recently, scoring in small-field events at Haydock the last twice. This much more competitive but certainly not ruled out.
16
10th (16) Born By The Sea (66/1 +0%)
Born By The Sea

66
66/1(+0%)
(16) Born By The Sea 66/1, Doubled his tally over fences at Galway in July but unsuited by the marked drop in trip after 3 months off at Leopardstown on Boxing Day. Off since and percentage call is to look elsewhere.
20
11th (20) Fire Away (100/1 -52%)
Fire Away

100
100/1(-52%)
(20) Fire Away 100/1, Useful chaser who has a terrific strike rate since joining this stable, winning 5 times. Probably needed the run on Newcastle return last month and a career-best is required in a first-time visor.
10
|PU| (10) Grand Paradis (5.5/1 +31%)
Grand Paradis

5.5
5.5/1(+31%)
(10) Grand Paradis 5.5/1, Dual winner over hurdles and he's taken well to fences, making a third-placed effort in a row at Gowran last month. 1 of 3 for Gordon Elliott so warrants considerable respect on handicap debut.
21
|PU| (21) Chinwag (28/1 +30%)
Chinwag

28
28/1(+30%)
(21) Chinwag 28/1, Largely progressive over hurdles and confirmed chase debut promise when winning at Ffos Las in November. Quickly resumed his progressive ways to score at Plumpton recently and it remains early days.

Wishing And Hoping

40
40/1(+0%)
(6) Wishing And Hoping 40/1, Sound-jumping front runner who bagged Worcester hunter and Aintree handicap this term. Better than ever when runner-up at Warwick last month but not featured in anything so competitive before.
1
|PU| (1) Hardline (50/1 -25%)
Hardline

50
50/1(-25%)
(1) Hardline 50/1, It's now thirteen runs since his last win in 2018, but he did take a step back in the right direction when runner-up in Grade 2 at Gowran last month. No forlorn hope with cheekpieces applied.

(2) Love Envoi 7.5/1, Wexford bumper winner who overcame a late blunder to make it 4-4 over hurdles in Grade 2 Jane Seymour at Sandown (19.8f) 4 weeks ago. Has a 5 lb penalty to carry but remains one to be positive about.

Ahorsewithnoname

50
50/1(+38%)
(8) Ahorsewithnoname 50/1, Fairly useful on the Flat and has matched that form over hurdles, for all she's raced 5 times without success. Hard to see her getting seriously involved at this level.

14
14/1(+30%)
(19) Nurse Susan 14/1, Created an excellent impression when winning her first 2 starts with plenty in hand and showed even better form in defeat when second to Love Envoi at Lingfield (2m) last time. Can go on improving.

Braganza

125
125/1(-56%)
(9) Braganza 125/1, Showed more temperament than ability on Flat debut in 2017 but superbly prepared after nearly 4 years off when making hurdling debut at Thurles. Failed to see race out upped in grade twice since.
1
6th (1) Impervious (22/1 -38%)
Impervious

22
22/1(-38%)
(1) Impervious 22/1, Strong at the finish when making it 3-3 over hurdles in Grade 3 at Down Royal (16.8f) in October. Unsuited by emphasis on speed in Royal Bond won by Statuaire since, so well worth another chance.

Party Central

5.5
5.5/1(+27%)
(3) Party Central 5.5/1, Dual-bumper winner who is very much going the right way over hurdles, following up her listed success at Punchestown on handicap debut at Leopardstown (17.7f). Open to further improvement.

Hors Piste

14
14/1(+13%)
(15) Hors Piste 14/1, Didn't need to improve to make her second start for this yard a winning one at Clonmel (18.9f) 4 weeks ago. That was a weak race but she did it easily and is open to further improvement up in grade.
11

Dinoblue

1.38
1.38/1(+39%)
(11) Dinoblue 1.38/1, Doctor Dino mare who looked an excellent prospect when drawing clear for minimal assistance to score by 15 lengths on debut at Clonmel (16.8f) in January. Type to make significant improvement. Player.

Statuaire

28

Hidden Land

200
200/1(+0%)
(14) Hidden Land 200/1, Big-priced winner on hurdles debut in July but that level well short of what is required here and she hasn't matched that since. AW scorer in February but looks out of her depth.

(16) Mayhem Mya 125/1, Dual-bumper winner who confirmed hurdling debut promise when wide-margin winner at Chepstow (2m) in January. Not disgraced behind Love Envoi at Lingfield and now tongue tied. Much more needed.

Heia

33
33/1(-18%)
(13) Heia 33/1, French bumper winner who was given a considerate introduction on hurdles debut in December and she looked a nice prospect when a ready scorer back at 2m last month. Limit not yet reached.

50/1(-52%)
(6) Nina The Terrier 50/1, Completed a hat-trick over hurdles in novice company at Newbury in December, but had her limitations exposed when only third of 6 to Love Envoi in Jane Seymour last time.

Tweed Skirt

100
100/1(+33%)
(7) Tweed Skirt 100/1, Fair bumper winner and made second hurdles outing a successful one at Ascot in November. That form is ordinary, and while this trip more suitable than 20.5f last time, she's up against it.
5
16th (5) Choice Of Words (33/1 +0%)
Choice Of Words

33
33/1(+0%)
(5) Choice Of Words 33/1, Progressive in bumpers and ran to a fairly useful level in making a winning start over hurdles at Galway. Has matched rather than bettered that form since but she's not without each-way hope.

17th (17) Mighty Blue (16/1 +27%)
Mighty Blue

16
16/1(+27%)
(17) Mighty Blue 16/1, Listed winner on the level in May so clearly possesses the raw ability to be a big factor at this level. Looked booked for second when unseating rider at Naas last month. Usual hood left off.

Monishter Are Mwee

150
150/1(+25%)
(18) Monishter Are Mwee 150/1, Surpassed bumper form when making second hurdles outing a winning one at Clonmel in October. Better form in defeat since but merit now established as a notch below this.

The Player Queen

150
150/1(-50%)
(21) The Player Queen 150/1, Point/bumper winner who built on earlier promise when doubling hurdles tally in 5-runner novice at Musselburgh last month, responding well. Can do better again but has plenty to find at this level.

Powerstown Park

50
50/1(-25%)
(23) Powerstown Park 50/1, Quickly resumed progress when notching a second win of the season at Hereford 45 days ago. A lot to like about how he did things on that occasion and should remain very competitive after a 6 lb rise.

(13) Mindsmadeup 66/1, Resumed winning ways back chasing at Down Royal in October and bettered that when second of 13 over 25f here in November. That form has worked out well but he is 7 lb higher back from a break.

16/1(-33%)
(18) Glenloe 16/1, Close second in Pertemps Hurdle at 2018 Festival. Only respectable third when warm favourite for 23f Punchestown handicap chase under Derek O'Connor in January but still no surprise if he goes well.

(10) Almazhar Garde 66/1, Profile is starting to look rather patchy, but he's capable when on-song, including chasing home Omar Maretti at Catterick (25f) latest. Well held in this last year. Blinkers replace cheekpieces.

Cat Tiger

22
22/1(+0%)
(5) Cat Tiger 22/1, Classy chaser who recorded a career best when edging ahead late on in 3m Ascot handicap in January. 6 lb rise means another career best will be needed if he's to follow up.

Ain't That A Shame

6
6/1(+29%)
(3) Ain't That A Shame 6/1, Maiden hurdle winner last season and better form (smart) when placed on all 3 starts in maiden chases this term. Good chance there's more to come now handicapping. High on the shortlist.

(1) Frontal Assault 5.5/1, Allotted his handicap mark over fences based on 3 starts at up to 21.5f and leaves the firm impression he'll have more to offer in this sphere now stepping up to 3m+. Obvious claims.

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.
