---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (16) (20/1 +20%) Malaita |
20/1(+20%) | (16) Malaita 20/1, Bumper winner who, having been given a chance by the handicapper, belatedly got off the mark over hurdles in 14-runner handicap at Carlisle (17f, good to soft) 2 months ago, suited by the emphasis on stamina. Task is now backing that up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (18/1 -13%) Merry Poppins |
18/1(-13%) | (4) Merry Poppins 18/1, Fair form in Ireland and has made a positive start for current stable, runner-up again at Ludlow last time. Others look better treated, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (5.5/1 +15%) Windtothelightning |
5.5/1(+15%) | (9) Windtothelightning 5.5/1, £35,000 purchase out of the pointing field who has made a bright start over hurdles, completing a hat-trick (straightforward task) in novice at Ayr last time. Still looks ahead of her mark and could be the one to beat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (5/1 +38%) Sashenka |
5/1(+38%) | (3) Sashenka 5/1, Hereford maiden winner last February on final start for Michael Scudamore and in good nick on Flat/over hurdles for new yard, scoring at Newbury in gutsy style last time. Merits respect again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (15) (66/1 -32%) Could Be Trouble |
66/1(-32%) | (15) Could Be Trouble 66/1, Fairly useful hurdler who posted a respectable fourth of 6 in 20.5f handicap at Market Rasen on penultimate outing but was below par at Uttoxeter last time. Blinkers now tried. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (9/1 -13%) Lone Star |
9/1(-13%) | (8) Lone Star 9/1, At the very top of her game, completing a four-timer in comfortable fashion in a competitive affair at Musselburgh 27 days ago. A well-run race here will suit and another bold showing is expected. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (18/1 -80%) Marada |
18/1(-80%) | (6) Marada 18/1, Progressed well over hurdles during 2020/21 as she won novices at Hereford and Huntingdon (twice). However, absent 22 months following that campaign and has struggled so far this season. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (28/1 -12%) Mulberry Hill |
28/1(-12%) | (10) Mulberry Hill 28/1, Opened her account in a Worcester maiden at the end of last summer and doubled her tally on the back of a wind op at Carlisle in October. Respectable sixth at Exeter next time but has been off 5 months subsequently. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (1) (50/1 -127%) Galice Macalo |
50/1(-127%) | (1) Galice Macalo 50/1, Useful hurdler who posted a career best when impressively winning 10-runner handicap at Chepstow (2m) in January. Excuses next time but latest effort was rather tame. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (13) (25/1 +24%) Lime Drop |
25/1(+24%) | (13) Lime Drop 25/1, Five-time winner last season and back to form when runner-up at Newbury in December. Not in the same form at Exeter since and this looks too competitive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (17) (8.5/1 +39%) Well Vicky |
8.5/1(+39%) | (17) Well Vicky 8.5/1, Looked a different proposition switched to handicaps, racking up a quick-fire hat-trick with victories at Hereford (19.7f), Bangor (19.6f) and Plumpton (15.9f). Creditable fourth to Dollar Bae at Chepstow last time but the handicapper might have caught up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (14) (8/1 +33%) Terresita |
8/1(+33%) | (14) Terresita 8/1, Won 3 times last term, including a Kempton novice (21f) on her final outing. Hasn't quite recaptured that form during the current season, but latest third to Dollar Bae was a step in the right direction. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (18) (66/1 +0%) Brown Bullet |
66/1(+0%) | (18) Brown Bullet 66/1, Back on the scoreboard in 7-runner handicap hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, soft) in March and not disgraced at Chepstow 2 days later. Faces a stiff task from out of the weights, though. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (7) (7/1 +7%) Dollar Bae |
7/1(+7%) | (7) Dollar Bae 7/1, Point/bumper winner who has made a bright start over hurdles and resumed progress upped to this trip when scoring at Chepstow a month ago. More to come and looks a big player. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (11) (22/1 -57%) Princess T |
22/1(-57%) | (11) Princess T 22/1, In fine form on the Flat in Jersey last summer, winning four times on the bounce. Also successful twice over hurdles in the autumn and respectable effort back from a break at Ffos Las 29 days ago. Return to quicker ground should suit. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
16th (12) (11/1 -10%) Presenting A Queen |
11/1(-10%) | (12) Presenting A Queen 11/1, Won 2 bumpers and a 19.5f Chepstow novice hurdle on her first 3 starts under Rules. Better form in defeat since, notably when second to Windtothelightning on 20.5f Market Rasen handicap debut 58 days ago, but she has shown signs of temperament. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
17th (5) (7/1 +30%) Grivetana |
7/1(+30%) | (5) Grivetana 7/1, Dual winner last term and progressed again when runner-up in handicap company at Newbury (16.3f) on first 2 outings this season. Disappointing at Chepstow last time but not a forlorn hope. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Windtothelightning is likely to do well based on the summary, as she has completed a hat-trick in novice races and still looks ahead of her mark. Lone Star is also expected to have another bold showing as she is at the very top of her game and completed a four-timer in a competitive affair at Musselburgh. Dollar Bae, Presenting A Queen, and Princess T are also mentioned as having made a positive start over hurdles and could be contenders.
In a wide-open contest, only a tentative vote can go to LONE STAR. A winner on five of her last six starts, Philip Kirby's mare has risen through the handicap ranks this season. She was raised 8lb for last month's facile Musselburgh success, but that might not be enough to stop her. Terresita (third) meets her Chepstow conqueror Dollar Bae (winner) again and the latter, who remains unexposed under Rules, is fancied to confirm that form. An improver in recent starts, Progressive should not be underestimated either.
This is fiercely competitive but WINDTOTHELIGHTNING still appears to have a lot of improvement left in her and she's fancied to complete a hat-trick. Dollar Bae and Lone Star, another pair of improving types, could pose a serious threat, while there are a whole host of others for whom a case can be made.
The pick is SASHENKA, who got the better of a subsequent winner at Newbury last month and could still be well treated after a 4lb rise.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (9) (16/1 +43%) Walk In Clover |
16/1(+43%) | (9) Walk In Clover 16/1, Yet to win a race over fences and hard to see her figuring from 14 lb out of the weights. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (6.5/1 +46%) Effernock Fizz |
6.5/1(+46%) | (1) Effernock Fizz 6.5/1, Useful hurdler/chaser who won the Welsh Champion Hurdle (Handicap) at Ffos Las in October. Out of depth in the Arkle last month and didn't fare much better returned to timber 11 days ago. Has been kept very busy and others are more persuasive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (3.33/1 +33%) La Renommee |
3.33/1(+33%) | (7) La Renommee 3.33/1, Got her act together in the jumping department of late and arrives in pursuit of a hat-trick following wins at Ludlow. Up 4 lb in a better race but she's clearly going the right way. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (4.5/1 -50%) Tweed Skirt |
4.5/1(-50%) | (4) Tweed Skirt 4.5/1, Fair bumper/hurdles winner who has taken off since switched to chasing, scoring in handicaps at Kempton and Wincanton. Good third in listed mares chase at Huntingdon before finding Grade 2 company too much at Kempton. Revised mark back in a handicap looks perfectly fair. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (12/1 -20%) Miah Grace |
12/1(-20%) | (2) Miah Grace 12/1, Winner of a 4-runner handicap chase at Newcastle on second start following a lengthy lay off in December. Couple of heavy defeats after but right back to best fitted with a visor returned to hurdling when successful back at that venue 3 weeks ago. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (6/1 -71%) La Domaniale |
6/1(-71%) | (3) La Domaniale 6/1, Successful 3 times switched to fences last summer and prominent in the market on last month's return to action at Warwick, though ultimately shaped as though in need of the run. Expected to step up plenty on that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (11/1 -83%) Fairfield Ferrata |
11/1(-83%) | (5) Fairfield Ferrata 11/1, Dual-hurdles winner but already better over fences, supplementing her Fakenham success in another small-field contest at Uttoxeter in January. Could be tough to peg back around here if she gets into her rhythm. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (7/1 +30%) Voice Of Calm |
7/1(+30%) | (6) Voice Of Calm 7/1, Triple-hurdle winner who has made a sound-enough start over fences, winning a match at Leicester in February. Hard to get excited by that form but she has gone up just 1 lb for that success. Has had a breathing operation. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (8) (7/1 +22%) Wynn House |
7/1(+22%) | (8) Wynn House 7/1, Fine record fresh and won 5-runner mares' handicap hurdle (21f) at Wincanton on return in November. Fair start over fences behind Panic Attack at Huntingdon 2 weeks later but unable to build on that twice since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based on this summary alone, as it only provides information about each horse's recent performance and past successes. However, Tweed Skirt and La Renommee seem to be in good form, while Walk In Clover is at a disadvantage being 14 lb out of the weights.
Tweed Skirt has been faced with a couple of tough assignments recently but she could fare better back in a handicap, while Miah Grace, who struck over hurdles at Newcastle last month, is another to note. Preference, however, is for LA RENOMMEE. She showed plenty of determination to score at Ludlow 17 days ago, her second win in as many starts. Dr Richard Newland's mare remains open to improvement over fences and must be taken seriously.
An interesting final of the series and if there's a runner with the potential to be better than their mark it's LA DOMANIALE, who should come on plenty for last month's return at Warwick. Fairfield Ferrata and Tweed Skirt are feared most.
The suggestion is LA DOMANIALE, who made an excellent start to her chasing career in the early part of this season.

1st (2) (3.5/1 +56%) Ahorsewithnoname |
3.5/1(+56%) | (2) Ahorsewithnoname 3.5/1, Useful performer on the Flat who is still a maiden over hurdles following 8 attempts, but has posted some good efforts, including when second in the Dawn Run at the 2022 Cheltenham Festival. Never better than mid-field in latest renewal of that corresponding event and now upped in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (11/1 -38%) Zestful |
11/1(-38%) | (9) Zestful 11/1, Fair performer on the level (stays 1¾m) who has already surpassed that form over hurdles, making it 2 from 2 in 6-runner novice at Kempton (16f, heavy) 33 days ago, well on top finish. That race fell apart to a certain extent, but she's made a good start and is open to further improvement. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (16/1 +36%) I Spy A Diva |
16/1(+36%) | (4) I Spy A Diva 16/1, Suffered a few near misses over hurdles last season but has more than made up for that this time round, making it 3 in a row when edging out a last-time-out winner from the Nicholls yard at Taunton (3m) in November. Proved too free in a stronger race (handicap) at Kempton when last seen, though. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (6.5/1 +0%) Lutinebella |
6.5/1(+0%) | (6) Lutinebella 6.5/1, Fairly useful in bumpers and quickened clear in good style when opening hurdles account at the second attempt at Exeter (18.5f) in November. Shade disappointing in a Taunton listed event before resuming winning ways in fine style in 5-runner novice at Plumpton (20.5f). Respected back up in grade. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (4.5/1 +25%) Ilovethenightlife |
4.5/1(+25%) | (1) Ilovethenightlife 4.5/1, Scopey sort who raised her game switched to a handicap when winning 15-runner event (Grade 2) at Newbury (20.5f, soft) 26 days ago, drawing clear late on. Shoulders a 3 lb penalty for that but still warrants respect in hat-trick bid. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (22/1 +21%) Spring Note |
22/1(+21%) | (8) Spring Note 22/1, Bumper winner who left previous hurdles efforts behind to make a successful handicap debut at Newbury (18.8f) last month, but that wasn't much of a race and a lot more on her plate now. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (50/1 -127%) Lilting Verse |
50/1(-127%) | (5) Lilting Verse 50/1, Placed both starts in Irish points and off the mark at the third attempt in bumpers in 8-runner listed event at Huntingdon (15.8f) in December. Bred to be suited by this longer trip now hurdling but this is a tough starting point. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (1.5/1 +40%) Deeply Superficial |
1.5/1(+40%) | (3) Deeply Superficial 1.5/1, Point winner who doubled her hurdles tally back in calmer waters in 6-runner minor event at Limerick (16.2f, soft) 25 days ago, pushed out. Not taken lightly back up in trip/grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based solely on this summary, as each horse has varying levels of success and potential. However, some horses that may be worth considering include Ilovethenightlife, who has recently won a Grade 2 race and is attempting a hat-trick, and Zestful, who has already made a good start to her hurdling career and is open to improvement. It is also worth keeping an eye on Ahorsewithnoname, who has posted some good efforts and was second in the Dawn Run at the Cheltenham Festival.
Having finished a good third behind subsequent Mares' Novices' Hurdle winner You Wear It Well in a Grade 2 at Sandown on her penultimate start, DEEPLY SUPERFICIAL made no mistake when readily accounting for five rivals at Limerick last time out. Gordon Elliott's mare has looked well up to winning at this level and is fancied to make her mark. Nicky Henderson landed the corresponding event last year and must hold every chance with Queens Rock, who bolted up at Doncaster on her handicap debut. Stablemate Ahorsewithnoname is capable on her day, while Ilovethenightlife is also considered.
QUEENS ROCK has been kept fresh for this since making a mockery of her opening mark at Doncaster (19.4f) in early February, which can't be a bad thing, especially at this stage of the season, so she looks to have a fair bit going for her. Deeply Superficial and Lutinebella head the dangers.
The call is DEEPLY SUPERFICIAL, whose good efforts behind those smart horses Inthepocket and You Wear It Well take the eye.

1st (7) (8.5/1 +29%) My Silver Lining |
8.5/1(+29%) | (7) My Silver Lining 8.5/1, Won a 2m novice hurdle last February and struck in February again when seeing off 4 rivals in a 25f Wincanton handicap chase, relishing the step up in trip. Not in same form at Southwell since, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (6/1 +57%) Juniper |
6/1(+57%) | (6) Juniper 6/1, Picked up where she left off when completing hat-trick at Wetherby on return but stopped in alarming fashion next 2 starts. Something to prove now. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (5.5/1 -83%) Rose Of Arcadia |
5.5/1(-83%) | (1) Rose Of Arcadia 5.5/1, Didn't disgrace herself in listed company at Exeter before resuming winning ways with plenty in hand back in a handicap at Fontwell last month, easily beating Good Luck Charm by 10 lengths. Should go well again despite 8 lb rise. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (4.5/1 +10%) Credo |
4.5/1(+10%) | (2) Credo 4.5/1, Has taken it up another notch over fences this term, gaining a second win of winter when seeing off 3 rivals in a mares' handicap at Warwick (3m). Failed to capitalise on a potentially lenient mark back over hurdles at Hereford next time but remains of interest back in this sphere. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (3.33/1 +17%) Gazette Bourgeoise |
3.33/1(+17%) | (4) Gazette Bourgeoise 3.33/1, Likeable mare who scored twice over hurdles last season and has largely run with credit in handicap chases this term. Failed to stay at Exeter (30.7f) last time and could be the answer back on a winning mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (8) (6.5/1 +24%) Good Look Charm |
6.5/1(+24%) | (8) Good Look Charm 6.5/1, Bumper/dual hurdles winner. Just respectable efforts over fences this season, let down by jumping when 10 lengths second of 4 to Rose of Arcadia in handicap at Fontwell (26f, soft, 10/3) 33 days ago. 9 lb better off with winner here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (5/1 +0%) Lady Kk |
5/1(+0%) | (5) Lady Kk 5/1, Hurdles winner who justified support to win her first chase in 4-runner handicap at Taunton 7 weeks ago, responding well to first-time headgear. Respected up 3 lb. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (28/1 -40%) Emmpressive Lady |
28/1(-40%) | (3) Emmpressive Lady 28/1, 4-time hurdle winner who left previous chase exploits behind when landing 5-runner Bangor handicap (3m, soft). Added to a patchy record when taking little interest at Wincanton 2 weeks ago, however. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Rose of Arcadia is the most likely to do well based on the summary, as she has recently resumed winning ways and easily beat her competitor Good Luck Charm by 10 lengths in a handicap at Fontwell last month.
ROSE OF ARCADIA has taken a step in the right direction this season, having won on three occasions, and the eight-year-old, who scored in decisive fashion on testing ground at Fontwell on her latest start, will have no issue in tackling a sounder surface, despite an 8lb rise. Good Look Charm chased home the selection in the aforementioned contest and may get closer this time, with Harry Cobden a notable jockey booking. Others to note include Credo and Lady Kk.
GAZETTE BOURGEOISE is becoming well handicapped and is worth another chance having failed to stay a marathon trip at Exeter last time. Rose of Arcadia had plenty in hand when scoring at Fontwell so is a player, while Lady Kk responded well to this headgear when winning with a bit to spare at Taunton.
Joe Tizzard's ROSE OF ARCADIA is a bit too up and down for comfort but she's good on her day and is built to carry weight.

1st (2) (3.33/1 -11%) Under Control |
3.33/1(-11%) | (2) Under Control 3.33/1, Successful sole start in France and looked good when landing a Newbury juvenile (16.3f, good to firm) for new yard last month. Tame effort in a soft-ground C&D Grade 2 at the Festival since but well worth another chance back on a quicker surface for this handicap bow. Yard also saddles Arclight. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (10) (8.5/1 +47%) Pretending |
8.5/1(+47%) | (10) Pretending 8.5/1, Winner of 11f Southwell novice on the level for Sir Mark Prescott last year and initial efforts over hurdles were decent, including when runner-up on handicap debut in this sphere at Doncaster. Ran poorly in the Musselburgh race won by Cianciana last time but that was too bad to be true. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (3.5/1 -27%) Media Naranja |
3.5/1(-27%) | (5) Media Naranja 3.5/1, Clear-cut winner of sole start on the Flat in France and made it third time lucky over hurdles when landing a Limerick juvenile (2m, heavy) 3 weeks ago. Further progress likely now handicapping and should have a big part to play if coping with the faster surface here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (3.6/1 +60%) Obsessedwithyou |
3.6/1(+60%) | (8) Obsessedwithyou 3.6/1, Successful debut at Wetherby in October and, having acquitted herself well in defeat on her next 2 starts, she duly landed the odds in a small-field Hereford juvenile (16.2f, good) last time. Mark for this handicap bow looks fair and she's not ruled out. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (20/1 +0%) Circus Act |
20/1(+0%) | (7) Circus Act 20/1, Hasn't done a great deal wrong in this sphere, following Hereford breakthrough success in February with a near-miss in a 4-runner Doncaster novice. Testing conditions perhaps against her last time but she's one of the most exposed fillies in this line up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (33/1 -50%) Pink Fire Lilly |
33/1(-50%) | (9) Pink Fire Lilly 33/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. No show first 3 starts over hurdles and while she appeared to take a step forward when third to Media Naranja at Limerick, it remains to be seen if she will be able to build on that here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (11/1 +8%) Golden Glance |
11/1(+8%) | (6) Golden Glance 11/1, Fair form in minor events on the Flat for the Crisfords and has improved with each of her 3 starts since switched to hurdles, recently opening her account in a 19f Haydock novice (good to firm). May well have more to offer but this assignment demands a significant step forward. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (8/1 -14%) Arclight |
8/1(-14%) | (3) Arclight 8/1, Fairly useful on the Flat for Sir Mark Prescott and good start over hurdles, winning a couple of juvenile events before finishing second in a listed contest at Doncaster. Disappointing on recent handicap bow and Nico de Boinville jumps ship but she remains of interest all the same. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (4) (22/1 -144%) Komedy Kicks |
22/1(-144%) | (4) Komedy Kicks 22/1, Fair maiden on the Flat and has shown plenty in 3 starts for Jessica Harrington in this sphere, most recently falling 2 out when in a share of second in a listed event at Doncaster. Hood enlisted on debut for new yard/handicap bow and she's not without each-way hope. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (80/1 -142%) La Breille |
80/1(-142%) | (11) La Breille 80/1, Didn't need to improve to get off the mark at Fakenham in October but subsequent efforts in handicap company leave much to be desired. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (10/1 -18%) Cianciana |
10/1(-18%) | (1) Cianciana 10/1, Fair Flat winner who has taken well to hurdles, notching second success in this sphere when cosily seeing off 12 rivals in a Musselburgh handicap (17.4f, good to soft) last time. However, 7 lb rise could leave her vulnerable up in class here. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
It is difficult to make a clear prediction as there are several horses with potential. However, Under Control looks promising after a successful start in France and a good performance in a recent Newbury juvenile. Obsessedwithyou also has a fair mark for her handicap bow and could be a strong contender. Golden Glance has improved with each hurdle start and could have more to offer, while Komedy Kicks has shown promise and is not without each-way hope.
Under Control struggled to make an impact at the Cheltenham Festival when stepping up markedly in grade from her UK debut success at Newbury. This should be more to her liking and along with stable companion Arclight, the pair form a strong team for Nicky Henderson. The vote, though, goes to KOMEDY KICKS. She was an unlucky faller at Doncaster on her latest start when hampered before the second last, but her run prior to that, when runner-up to Boodles hero Jazzy Matty at Fairyhouse, gives her a big chance.
The one with the most obvious potential is Irish-raider MEDIA NARANJA, who delivered a fluent round of jumping when opening her account from the front at Limerick. This is tougher but her opening mark looks fair and she may well be equal to the task. The Nicky Henderson-trained duo Arclight and Under Control rate the main dangers, with the former feared most, for all that she is the apparent second-string judged on jockey bookings. Komedy Kicks and Obsessedwithyou are live each-way candidates.
If bouncing back from a rare blip at Musselburgh, PRETENDING could be on better terms with the handicapper than some in here.

1st (1) (2.25/1 -38%) Pink Legend |
2.25/1(-38%) | (1) Pink Legend 2.25/1, Back to winning ways at Exeter (24.3f) in February and ran right up to best when third in Mares' Chase at this course (20.6f, good to soft) last time. Must be a player here despite reservations about drop back to minimum trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (2.75/1 -10%) Royale Margaux |
2.75/1(-10%) | (2) Royale Margaux 2.75/1, Multiple winner in France for David Cottin and posted best effort for Tom Symonds when fourth of 9 in handicap chase at Ascot (16.8f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Figures off handy mark and must enter calculations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (33/1 +18%) Lost Connections |
33/1(+18%) | (6) Lost Connections 33/1, Still looking for first success after 7 attempts (tried over a variety of trips) and faces a very stiff task from so far out of the handicap. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (5.5/1 +45%) Doyannie |
5.5/1(+45%) | (5) Doyannie 5.5/1, Belatedly opened account at Plumpton (17f) in February and just denied at Taunton off 9 lb higher a fortnight later. However, finished weakly last time and has plenty on her plate from 12 lb out of the handicap here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (3.33/1 +33%) Fortunes Melody |
3.33/1(+33%) | (3) Fortunes Melody 3.33/1, Useful hurdler in France who gained small-field victories over hurdles/fences at up to 20f for present yard in the autumn. Largely acquitted herself well in defeat since but does need to bounce back from poor recent effort at Ludlow. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (7.5/1 -50%) Hawthorn Cottage |
7.5/1(-50%) | (4) Hawthorn Cottage 7.5/1, Made winning return at Warwick (20f) in November and back on scoreboard when taking 4-runner handicap chase (9/4) at Market Rasen (21.4f, soft) 30 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Should go well again, although would likely prefer a drop of rain. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Based on the summary provided, Hawthorn Cottage seems to be the most likely to do well as it has won a recent race and has shown enthusiasm. However, it may prefer a drop of rain. Pink Legend and Royale Margaux also have strong recent performances and should be considered contenders. Fortunes Melody and Doyannie have had mixed form and may struggle in this race. Lost Connections is also unlikely to do well given its lack of success and handicap disadvantage.
PINK LEGEND went well for a long way in the Mares' Chase here last month and the drop in trip could prove ideal as she lowers her sights in handicap company. The daughter of Midnight Legend won on this card two years ago and she can do so once more, with the consistent Doyannie looking best placed to chase her home. Fortunes Melody and Hawthorn Cottage have the form to get involved as well.
Preference is for ROYALE MARGAUX, who looks nicely treated and offered more for her current yard at Ascot last time. Pink Legend is feared most.
It can pay to trust Festival form and, with no classy Irish mares to worry about, PINK LEGEND (nap) can secure a sixth win over fences.

9th (16) (22/1 +45%) Whisperonthewind |
22/1(+45%) | (16) Whisperonthewind 22/1, Shirocco filly who posted a promising debut second in bumper at Warwick but too free when only 11th at Huntingdon in February. Worth another chance with hood back on. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

13th (7) (10/1 +29%) Bobbi's Beauty |
10/1(+29%) | (7) Bobbi's Beauty 10/1, Mahler mare. Half-sister to useful hurdler Minella Warrior and fairly useful hurdler Harefield. Successful in an Irish point in February so she's hugely respected, especially if the market vibes are positive. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (4) (16/1 +68%) Inion Tiogair |
16/1(+68%) | (4) Inion Tiogair 16/1, Left Margaret Mullins after debut second before making all in Ludlow bumper in January. Reportedly got struck into when thirteenth in bumper at Ascot 61 days ago so shouldn't be written off. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (13) (125/1 -25%) Quick Of The Night |
125/1(-25%) | (13) Quick Of The Night 125/1, Only modest form shown in two bumpers, third of 5 on latter occasion at Doncaster (50/1) 47 days ago. Needs a big step forward. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Mary Yeats has solid claims, having made a promising start when clear second of 8 in a bumper at Warwick (16f, soft) on NH debut 39 days ago.
Grand National-winning handler Lucinda Russell could be about to unleash a smart type for the future in the shape of easy Musselburgh winner EL ELEFANTE. A half-sister to the talented Snake Roll, she can get the better of Mellificent and Dontyawantme, who may not have been in love with the ground when placed in a Listed bumper at Sandown last month. Blue Baloo, Flying Fortune and Leave Her To Me complete the shortlist.
Lots with chances but the vote goes to DONTYAWANTME who just holds the edge on form and also looked to have more to offer when third in a Sandown listed bumper last time. Mary seems sure to build on her debut Warwick second and rates the chief threat, although Irish point winner Bobbi's Beauty and Musselburgh-scorer El Elefante both need considering too along with the re-hooded Whisperonthewind.
4yos have held their own in this bumper and not only is FLYING FORTUNE's form right up there, but she's also battle-hardened.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
