Races & Results Thursday 6th January 2022
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(7) Jaunty Freyja 5/1, Runner-up twice in bumpers. Just modest form over hurdles so far but she does stand a more realistic chance now handicapping for the first time.
8
2nd (8) (50/1 -150%) Sarceaux
50
50/1(-150%)
(8) Sarceaux 50/1, Fair Flat winner in France. Has shown the odd bit of promise over hurdles for this yard but she was running below par when slipping up at Wincanton last time.
5
3rd (5) (9/1 +0%) Lettie Lutz
9
9/1(+0%)
(5) Lettie Lutz 9/1, Reached the frame on first 2 starts over hurdles (C&D first occasion). Faded to finish well held on her 2½m Ffos Las handicap debut 3 weeks ago and now back down in trip with a tongue strap added.
1
4th (1) (4.5/1 +0%) Dame Du Soir
4.5
4.5/1(+0%)
(1) Dame Du Soir 4.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser who was a creditable third over fences on her reappearance. Not so good at Cheltenham since but returns to hurdles off 2 lb lower than when winning this last year. Player.
3
5th (3) (2.75/1 -53%) Lady Tremaine
2.75
2.75/1(-53%)
(3) Lady Tremaine 2.75/1, Improved for a switch to handicaps and first-time cheekpieces when winning at Bangor (17f, heavy) 4 weeks ago. Raised 5 lb but it's likely she has more to offer for stable which continues in form.
9
6th (9) (8.5/1 -21%) Astra Via
8.5
8.5/1(-21%)
(9) Astra Via 8.5/1, Back to form when scoring over C&D in October, picking way through in well-run race to edge ahead late on. Both her wins have come off marks in the 80s so she will need a bit more to follow up.
4
7th (4) (5/1 +23%) Ruby Yeats
5
5/1(+23%)
(4) Ruby Yeats 5/1, Successful at Exeter last winter. Not at best in 3 starts this term but has slipped to 9 lb below that winning mark so dangerous if staging a revival.
2
8th (2) (12/1 +0%) Heure De Gloire
12
12/1(+0%)
(2) Heure De Gloire 12/1, Won mares' hurdle on sole run in France. Second in juvenile for new yard in March. Below that level in 2 handicaps last month but they were Class 1-2 events and she may fare better in this Class 4.
6
9th (6) (12/1 +0%) Llantara
12
12/1(+0%)
(6) Llantara 12/1, Hurdles winner who was also placed a few times in handicap hurdles last season. Let down by jumping back chasing on return but may fare better returned to smaller obstacles. On a workable mark.
LTO Selection:
12:05 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(10) Port Or Starboard 4/1, Fair maiden on Flat who has shaped with promise when runner-up in 3 maiden/novice hurdles at Ffos Las in recent months. Ought to be bang there again.
4
1st (4) (2.25/1 +44%) Git Maker
2.25
2.25/1(+44%)
(4) Git Maker 2.25/1, Bought for £105,000 after getting off the mark at the fourth attempt in Irish points in May. Interesting recruit to hurdles for new connections.
7
2nd (7) (2.75/1 +17%) Marco Island
2.75
2.75/1(+17%)
(7) Marco Island 2.75/1, Made a winning start to his career in a course bumper (good to soft) last month. A few of those in behind improved on next start so the form could be reasonable. Much respected now hurdling.
3
3rd (3) (3.2/1 +9%) Extraordinary Man
3.2
3.2/1(+9%)
(3) Extraordinary Man 3.2/1, Easily best effort when 6 lengths second in 2m Huntingdon novice hurdle a month ago. The race has thrown up 2 subsequent winners so the form looks okay. Should figure.
6
4th (6) (66/1 +0%) Keplerian
66
66/1(+0%)
(6) Keplerian 66/1, Signs of only a little ability in a course bumper and Exeter maiden hurdle in recent months.
2
5th (2) (6/1 +63%) Braganza Bay
6
6/1(+63%)
(2) Braganza Bay 6/1, Went the wrong way after a promising start in bumpers but has got his career back on track with a couple of fair efforts over hurdles. Bit more needed for the win, though.
1
6th (1) (80/1 -100%) Bert Wilson
80
80/1(-100%)
(1) Bert Wilson 80/1, Runner-up on the first of 2 bumper starts last spring but ran to only a modest level when mid-field on his Leicester hurdle debut 22 days ago. Needs to have come on a fair bit.
11
7th (11) (100/1 +0%) Stumps Or Slips
100
100/1(+0%)
(11) Stumps Or Slips 100/1, Performed above market expectations when third in a Huntingdon bumper on Rules debut in May but well held in a pair of novice hurdles since returning to action.
8
8th (8) (7.5/1 -15%) Pachacuti
7.5
7.5/1(-15%)
(8) Pachacuti 7.5/1, 11/4, promising first run when fouirth in bumper here (good to soft) a month ago, no extra inside final 1f. Hood goes on now hurdling. Respected.
12
9th (12) (125/1 -89%) Annie Nail
125
125/1(-89%)
(12) Annie Nail 125/1, Modest form in a couple of runs in recent months and likely she's more one for handicaps afer this.
9
10th (9) (16/1 +0%) Pilgrims King
16
16/1(+0%)
(9) Pilgrims King 16/1, Progressive in 3 starts in bumpers but could only manage a well-held fourth on his Ffos Las hurdle debut 3 weeks ago, with the reopposing Port Or Starboard 26 lengths ahead in third.
5
11th (5) (300/1 -200%) Hit The Silk
300
300/1(-200%)
(5) Hit The Silk 300/1, Modest on Flat. Pulled up both starts over hurdles when trained in Ireland. Surely booked for another struggle here.

12:40 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Hatos 2.5/1, Runner-up in Irish point before promising third of 14 in bumper over C&D 33 days ago. Player now going over hurdles for a yard among the winners.
3
2nd (3) (2.5/1 -11%) Drenagh
2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(3) Drenagh 2.5/1, Off almost 2 years since placed in two bumpers when runner-up in 2m novice at Bangor on his hurdles bow 27 days ago. Not discounted with that run under his belt.
8
3rd (8) (25/1 +0%) Patient Owner
25
25/1(+0%)
(8) Patient Owner 25/1, 33/1, better effort in this sphere when staying-on sixth of 12 in novice at Leicester (15.5f, soft) 22 days ago. May do better still, but he needs to if he's to trouble the principals.
1
4th (1) (2.5/1 +29%) Ballybeen
2.5
2.5/1(+29%)
(1) Ballybeen 2.5/1, Placed in points and has shown fair form on both his runs over hurdles, patiently-ridden fifth of 15 in 2m novice at Exeter 21 days ago. Has more to offer. Considered.
9
5th (9) (7/1 +65%) Petty Cash
7
7/1(+65%)
(9) Petty Cash 7/1, Fair form when fourth at Bangor on his hurdling bow but only sixth of 8 in novice at Aintree (17f) 33 days ago. Worth another chance.

6th (5) (66/1 -32%) Hesbehindyou
66
66/1(-32%)
(5) Hesbehindyou 66/1, Off 9 months and raced too freely when seventh of 10 in bumper at Market Rasen 49 days ago. More is required on his hurdles debut.
10
7th (10) (14/1 +65%) Roger Rarebit
14
14/1(+65%)
(10) Roger Rarebit 14/1, Hinted at promise when third in Hereford bumper and never dangerous in two novice hurdles at Uttoxeter. Can do better in the longer term.
11
8th (11) (80/1 -142%) Shot Boii
80
80/1(-142%)
(11) Shot Boii 80/1, 33/1, eleventh of 15 in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, soft) on NH debut 21 days ago. Needs to step forward.

125
125/1(-400%)
(6) Lucky Bounce 125/1, €8,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Dam, modest maiden hurdler, half-sister to useful hurdler Amber Brook. Other newcomers appeal more on this occasion.

150
150/1(-200%)
(2) Captain Grinnaway 150/1, 40/1, green when tenth of 14 in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, soft) on NH debut 20 days ago. Can step forward now.

150
150/1(-50%)
(12) Beat The Storm 150/1, Modest 12f maiden on Flat for William Knight who has shown little for his new yard on both his hurdling starts, hooded/tongue tied when eighth at Fontwell 30 days ago. Has lots to find.
LTO Selection:
13:10 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Ask A Honey Bee 0.11/1, Signed off last term with hurdles win at Uttoxeter (23.3f) and better form when twice runner-up switched to chasing this autumn, latterly behind Threeunderthrufive at Exeter (3m). Big player.
3
2nd (3) (7/1 +13%) Captain Cuckoo
7
7/1(+13%)
(3) Captain Cuckoo 7/1, Maiden pointer. Modest form at best under Rules and likely to fall short again kept to novice company. Had wind surgery.
4
|PU| (4) (28/1 +20%) Coalbrook Bridge
28
28/1(+20%)
(4) Coalbrook Bridge 28/1, Bollin Eric gelding who was sent off at 66/1 and offered little when pulled up in a Fairyhouse maiden hurdle (23f) just over 2 years ago. Passed over on belated return/chase debut for new stable.
LTO Selection:
13:40 Chepstow Maiden Chase (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(6) Mahon Point 2.25/1, Winning pointer who (9/2) shaped really well on his yard bow when third of 15 in bumper here 33 days ago, set lot to do and finishing strongly. Well worth a second look on his hurdles debut.
2
2nd (2) (1.1/1 +27%) Dom Of Mary
1.1
1.1/1(+27%)
(2) Dom Of Mary 1.1/1, Point/bumper winner for Sam Curling who made a promising start in this sphere after 10 months off when patiently-ridden fourth in novice at Newbury (20.5f, good to soft) 22 days ago. Leading claims.
1

3.5
3.5/1(+0%)
(1) Crossing Lines 3.5/1, €38,000 3-y-o, Jeremy gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, notably useful chaser Arctic Skipper. Dual points winner in 2019, so he's no forlorn hope despite his absence. Worth a market check.
7
4th (7) (22/1 +21%) Sam's The Man
22
22/1(+21%)
(7) Sam's The Man 22/1, Fair form shown in two bumpers, racing keenly when tenth of 15 at Cheltenham 75 days ago. Respected on his first go in this sphere.

125
125/1(-25%)
(4) Jukebox Junior 125/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, tailed-off second when he refused in novice hurdle here (125/1) 33 days ago. Has lots to find on form.
3
6th (3) (10/1 -25%) Helios De Grugy
10
10/1(-25%)
(3) Helios De Grugy 10/1, No Risk At All gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to top-class 2m chaser Sire de Grugy. Appeals on paper, so he's a much-respected debutant.
5
7th (5) (22/1 +33%) Largy Nights
22
22/1(+33%)
(5) Largy Nights 22/1, Off 2 years (finished lame on debut fifth) before offering little when remote fifth of 7 in 21f novice (100/1) at Ascot 20 days ago. A big step forward is required now.

150
150/1(+0%)
(8) Tis But A Scratch 150/1, Has offered little on both his runs over hurdles, eleventh of 16 in novice at Hereford (19.7f) 26 days ago. Hard to enthuse over.

14:15 Chepstow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(7) Le Ligerien 16/1, Useful hurdler at this peak. Has struggled to see his races out under Rules in recent times, including over fences, and his jumping let him down at Doncaster 27 days ago.
6
2nd (6) (20/1 -11%) Rose Sea Has
20
20/1(-11%)
(6) Rose Sea Has 20/1, Landed a Sedgefield handicap chase back in 2019 but been rather disappointing since. Hard to fancy for all he's dropped significantly in the weights.
1
3rd (1) (2.75/1 -10%) Can You Call
2.75
2.75/1(-10%)
(1) Can You Call 2.75/1, Bumper winner who was fairly useful over hurdles and was threatening to make his second chase outing a winning one when coming down 2 out at Hereford last time. Excellent claims.
3
4th (3) (8/1 -45%) Early Du Lemo
8
8/1(-45%)
(3) Early Du Lemo 8/1, Fairly useful but unreliable chaser, whose jumping let him down (fell 4 out) at Newbury 8 days ago. Well treated if he's on a going day, however.
8
5th (8) (7/1 +36%) Billingsley
7
7/1(+36%)
(8) Billingsley 7/1, Completed a hat-trick in 2m handicap chases in 2019 but disappointing last season and yet to beat a rival in two outings (hurdles first occasion) this term.
5
|F| (5) (50/1 -213%) Le Coeur Net
50
50/1(-213%)
(5) Le Coeur Net 50/1, Dual scorer last term but he looked rusty after 10 months off when last of 4 in 2m Newbury handicap 22 days ago. Blinkers back on now with a big step forward required.
2
|PU| (2) (1.62/1 +19%) Galop De Chasse
1.62
1.62/1(+19%)
(2) Galop De Chasse 1.62/1, First run since leaving Mlle D. Mele when 5/2, won 5-runner handicap chase at Lingfield (16f, heavy) on UK NH debut 17 days ago, forging clear after taking a while to hit top gear. Leading claims.
4
|PU| (4) (6/1 +45%) Gingembre Menthe
6
6/1(+45%)
(4) Gingembre Menthe 6/1, Fair maiden hurdler who returned to Britain/chasing with a sketchy display of jumping at Lingfield 17 days ago, albeit still holding every chance when falling 3 out. Not a forlorn hope.
LTO Selection:
14:50 Chepstow Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(8) Straight Swap 8/1, Best effort over hurdles when second in Lingfield novice in November 2020. Seen twice since, and shaped as if he'd strip fitter for the run when fifth at Warwick back from a long absence 28 days ago.
5
2nd (5) (3.33/1 +0%) Garincha
3.33
3.33/1(+0%)
(5) Garincha 3.33/1, Lightly raced for current stable and left previous form behind when powering through to score at Wetherby last time. Type to improve further, so obvious claims under a penalty.
9
3rd (9) (14/1 +0%) Jaunty Viking
14
14/1(+0%)
(9) Jaunty Viking 14/1, Off the mark in Ffos Las novice handicap hurdle in June and back from a 6-month absence with a creditable third at Ludlow 15 days ago. May do better still.
1
4th (1) (50/1 -43%) Point Of Principle
50
50/1(-43%)
(1) Point Of Principle 50/1, Infrequent winner who has seemed out of sorts over both sets of obstacles this term.
3
5th (3) (25/1 -79%) Lydford Lad
25
25/1(-79%)
(3) Lydford Lad 25/1, Showed ability on only start in bumpers and left his hurdling debut form well behind when landing a novice at Ffos Las. Disappointing there 3 weeks ago, and open mark seems pretty stiff.
6
6th (6) (5.5/1 +15%) Caswell Bay
5.5
5.5/1(+15%)
(6) Caswell Bay 5.5/1, Last success came over C&D almost 2 years ago. Now lower in the weights and shaped as if back in form when fifth over an inadequate trip at Haydock on reappearance, so he's one to consider.
7
7th (7) (12/1 +0%) Voyage De Retour
12
12/1(+0%)
(7) Voyage De Retour 12/1, Fair hurdler who is lightly raced for his age and returns to this sphere after an unproductive couple of tries over fences. Bit to prove.
11
8th (11) (14/1 +30%) Akkapenko
14
14/1(+30%)
(11) Akkapenko 14/1, Narrowly failed to make a successful debut for new connections at Bangor in August but went one better 2 starts later at Uttoxeter in November. Seemed amiss at Taunton later that month, though.
4
|PU| (4) (1.88/1 +25%) Helios Allen
1.88
1.88/1(+25%)
(4) Helios Allen 1.88/1, Improved to score readily over C&D in November and backed it up with a good third in a race that's proving strong (first two both won next-time-out), so he boasts leading claims.
10
|PU| (10) (20/1 -67%) Kenny George
20
20/1(-67%)
(10) Kenny George 20/1, In good order when last seen, finishing second in a 16-runner event at Fontwell, but that was 10 months off, and he needs to return with a career-best effort., so this is a big ask.
2
|PU| (2) (66/1 -200%) Affoburg
66
66/1(-200%)
(2) Affoburg 66/1, Fairly useful hurdler in France who returns from a 3-monnth break starting out for a new yard. Worth a market check.
LTO Selection:
15:20 Chepstow Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) The Mighty Arc 4/1, Placed in novice hurdles last term and improved on those efforts when making a successful chase/handicap debut at Worcester in November. Reverted to his weak-finishing ways last time but shortlisted.
6
1st (6) (2.25/1 +50%) Destin D'ajonc
2.25
2.25/1(+50%)
(6) Destin D'ajonc 2.25/1, Produced best effort over fences/for this yard to gain a first success in Britain over C&D last February and shaped as if better for the run after a wind op on reappearance. High on the shortlist.
1
2nd (1) (10/1 -43%) Broken Quest
10
10/1(-43%)
(1) Broken Quest 10/1, Prolific hurdles winner who opened chase account at Ludlow (20f) last March. Mixed bag has followed, disappointing over larger obstacles at Leicester just over 3 weeks ago.
4
3rd (4) (2.5/1 -11%) Gemirande
2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(4) Gemirande 2.5/1, Ex-French gelding who opened account on these shores in 2m Wetherby novice hurdle in November 2020. Mixed record after, but his second on return over fences suggested he won't be far away here.
5
4th (5) (9/1 +59%) Enormouse
9
9/1(+59%)
(5) Enormouse 9/1, Showed fair level of ability when placed in maiden/novice company at this track on final 2 starts of last season but well held on return/handicap debut recently. Makes chase debut today.
3
5th (3) (10/1 +44%) Thomas Patrick
10
10/1(+44%)
(3) Thomas Patrick 10/1, Big improver over fences a few of seasons back, winner of Grade 3 Aintree handicap in 2018. However, has shown no form in over 3 years now so easily opposed.
8
|PU| (8) (5/1 +55%) Mouseinthehouse
5
5/1(+55%)
(8) Mouseinthehouse 5/1, Arrives in decent nick, seventh of 12 in handicap chase (12/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 33 days ago. Can give another good account.
9
|PU| (9) (16/1 +0%) El Hageb Rose
16
16/1(+0%)
(9) El Hageb Rose 16/1, Some promise over hurdles in 2018/19 and a bad mistake essentially ended his hopes on chase debut at Kempton over 2 years ago. Clearly had his problems so this should reveal what ability remains.
7
|PU| (7) (22/1 -22%) Lord Bryan
22
22/1(-22%)
(7) Lord Bryan 22/1, Unreliable type who ended a losing run stretching more than 2 years in 6-runner handicap chase at Market Rasen in June. Failed to fire since, so not one to be interested in currently.

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.
