1st (2) Charyn (2/1 +27%)
Charyn

2
2/1(+27%)
(2) Charyn 2/1, Smart colt who excelled himself when hitting the frame in the Irish Guineas and the St James's Palace Stakes, both won by Paddington. Third in the Sussex Stakes in August and ran to just a similar level down in class when third in Celebration Mile later that month. Respected on return.
Really smart and acts on soft but behind Knight final 3yo start; yard does well in this.
7
2nd (7) Astral Beau (4/1 +0%)
Astral Beau

4
4/1(+0%)
(7) Astral Beau 4/1, Very progressive handicapper in 2022 and improved again to land this corresponding event last year. Produced a rare below-par effort when down the field in similar event at Newmarket (8f, good to firm) 6 months ago and she warrants considerable respect on return.
Won this on heavy last year but this looks a stronger renewal.
1
3rd (1) Grey's Monument (17/2 +29%)
Grey's Monument

8.5
17/2(+29%)
(1) Grey's Monument 17/2, Much improved equipped with blinkers/faced with softer ground, winning twice as a juvenile. Made the track just 4 times last year but proved better than ever on all-weather debut when winning a similar event at Kempton (8f) in December. Gelded since and there's lots to like back on turf.
Won AW Listed in December (gelded after); acts in the mud but penalty tough to overcome.
4
4th (4) Holloway Boy (15/2 -50%)
Holloway Boy

7.5
15/2(-50%)
(4) Holloway Boy 15/2, Debut winner in Chesham at Royal Ascot in 2022. Seen just twice last season though, disappointing in Irish 2000 Guineas before running up to his best with headgear left off when ½ length fourth of 15 to Age of Kings in Jersey Stakes last June. Gelded since and can't be ignored on return.
Talented sort who is capable of going well on first outing for nine months (gelded).
5
5th (5) Knight (10/3 -67%)
Knight

3.333333
10/3(-67%)
(5) Knight 10/3, Bagged Group 3 Horris Hill at Newbury as a juvenile and took his form up a notch last term, head second of 8 to Chindit in listed race at Sandown (8f heavy) in September. Ran poorly in Darley Stakes (9f, good to soft) next time but fancied to be bang there in a first-time visor.
Goes well in the mud and in front of Charyn in Goodwood Group 2 last year; visor added.
6
6th (6) Padishakh (11/1 -22%)
Padishakh

11
11/1(-22%)
(6) Padishakh 11/1, Useful 9f winner for Jean-Claude Rouget, close fifth in Prix Daphnis at Deauville (8f, soft) in August. Gelded but offered little 2 months later making his UK debut for Roger Varian in Darley Stakes at Newmarket (9f, good to soft) and has since switched yards again (for 200,000 gns).
Useful in France; lasted only 1 run with Roger Varian but yard does well with new recruits.
3
7th (3) Dashing Roger (18/1 +73%)
Dashing Roger

18
18/1(+73%)
(3) Dashing Roger 18/1, Snapped a losing run going back over 2 years when forging clear at Nottingham in October and made light of a hike in the weights to follow up at Newmarket a month later, all out to hold on. Super effective when the mud is flying, but likely to come up short in this company.
Useful efforts to win two 1m handicaps in mud last autumn but this much harder.

13:20 Doncaster Listed (Class 1) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

CHARYN posted a number of creditable efforts at the highest level last year, perhaps most notably when finishing within four lengths of the exceptional Paddington at Royal Ascot. It had been a long season when he finished third behind the reopposing Knight (second) in the Celebration Mile at Goodwood, so it would come as no surprise were he to reverse that form now. Knight must be respected, though, with the first-time visor a potential source of improvement, while Holloway Boy can give a good account of himself. Last year's winner Astral Beau merits respect in receipt of weight from the boys, but this does look a deeper renewal.

A change of race for the curtain-raiser to the Turf Flat season and it's KNIGHT who gets the nod to come out on top back on a more conventional track for his seasonal return. Both his best efforts came when the mud was flying last season, so he's taken ahead of Charyn, who failed to get his head in front last season but was campaigned solely in pattern company. Last year's winner Astral Beau should relish conditions so she can fill out third.

A good renewal of this Listed prize, with KNIGHT is taken to confirm Celebration Mile superiority over Charyn.

LTO Selection:

13:50 Doncaster Stakes (Class 2) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Amo Racing hit the woodwork in the corresponding event 12 months ago, having landed the previous renewal with Persian Force. There might not be anything of that quality lining up, but their representative MYSTICAL ELEGANCE, a 45,000gns purchase and a half-sister to five winners, is likely to know her job and might have too much for the opposition. General Gordon is a half-brother to Hafeet Alain, who won his maiden over 6f here, so that offers some hope he could get involved. Others to note include Atherstone Warrior and Ettorino.

The betting will obviously provide more clues but the suggestion is MYSTICAL ELEGANCE, whose owner/trainer had one primed to go well in this last year and the 2022 winner also sported these silks. Darryll Holland is another who has readied one to go close in this in recent years so his Paddy's Courage is put forward as second choice ahead of Atherstone Warrior.

Based on purchase price and other factors, the vote goes to DUKES OF HAATHER. Mystical Elegance is feared most.

Magic Memories

7
7/1(+50%)
(8) Magic Memories 7/1, Took his form up another notch when shedding maiden status in 1m handicap at Brighton (heavy) in October and backed it up with a good third at Newmarket following month. Shortlisted on his return.

Helter Skelter

22
22/1(-144%)
(16) Helter Skelter 22/1, Fair 1m maiden for John Joseph Murphy last autumn. Sold for 38,000 gns and posted an encouraging fourth for his new yard after 6 months off in minor event at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 8 days ago. Interesting now going into handicaps, especially if the market vibes are positive.
The least exposed contender; interesting on second run for shrewd new connections.
13

Maysong

16
16/1(+11%)
(13) Maysong 16/1, Consistent sort who posted a good second of 8 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 17 days ago. A two-time 1m winner in 2023 so he needs considering.

22/1(-22%)
(5) Wildfell 22/1, C&D winner who arrives in decent nick, fourth of 11 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 34 days ago. One to consider.

Defied an 8lb higher mark in this race 12 months ago; very attractively weighted.

Lion Tower

(1) Lion Tower 28/1, Posted his best effort in a long while when second of 13 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f) 48 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up off the same mark.
The forecast slow ground is a negative back on turf; best on good/firmer.

(14) Expressionless 12/1, Kickstarted 2023 with back-to-back 1m wins at Nottingham and Epsom. Caught wide when seventh of 9 at Lingfield (10f, AW) final run so no surprise to see him in the picture here off a 2 lb lower mark.
This may be the time to catch him; scored twice on soft ground last spring.

Close second off 2lb higher in this contest 12 months ago; respected back here.

(11) He's A Gentleman 22/1, A two-time scorer at Wolverhampton last autumn who resumed with a good second of 12 in handicap there (7.2f) 42 days ago, just failing. Merits consideration.

Skilled Warrior

66
66/1(-65%)

Kalikapour

33

(10) Kalikapour 33/1, A fair ex-Irish 1m winner who wasn't disgraced when a close 11th in 10f Dundalk handicap in September. Much respected after a break for his new handler with few miles still on the clock.
Ex-Irish; failed to progress last year; market instructive on debut for new yard.

14:25 Doncaster Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

It might be worth taking a chance on HARSWELL DUKE, who made all to defeat the reopposing Titian off 8lb higher in this race last year. He should have been primed for this following a recent spin at Newcastle and any further rain will suit. Look Back Smiling is another who will relish forecast ground conditions, having recorded a course win on heavy ground when last seen 147 days ago. Lion Tower returned with a narrow second at Newcastle last month and he could be on the premises too, while Hortzadar, Wildfell and Clear Angel are just a few others to consider.

Plenty are in with a shout. Roger Fell took this 12 months ago and his HARSWELL DUKE is worth siding with given he should strip fitter for a recent Newcastle sixth and also now figures on a good mark after his C&D success in the mud last spring. Gary Moore's Magic Memories also handles these underfoot conditions really well and could emerge as the main threat ahead of handicap-debutant Helter Skelter and reliable duo Maysong and Titian.

A chance is taken on HELTER SKELTER, who lacks experience but is very unexposed by the same token. Harswell Duke is second choice.

Promising last spring; beaten favourite in big handicaps after but has since been gelded.

Two good handicap wins in 2023, including here; came to hand early last year; major player.

15:00 Doncaster Listed (Class 1) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Baradar finished third in last year's Lincoln and then struck on two occasions over shorter distances to improve his rating 8lb last season. His last run at Ascot in October was too bad to be true and he is likely to be thereabouts, but the vote goes to MARSHMAN. Karl Burke's colt finished second in the Gimcrack in 2022 and took a Group 3 at Chantilly over an extended 5f in April last year, so he could have too much speed for his main rival. Of the remainder, Montassib appeals most.

BARADAR was firmly on the up prior to seeming amiss at Ascot on his final outing last season but, freshened up, he's likely to put up a bold showing on return. Montassib is closely matched with the selection on form, so he's regarded as a big player along with Orazio.

Charlie Hills's ORAZIO looked a sprinter going places last spring and may get back on track if a gelding op has had a positive effect.

(15) Mr Professor 33/1, Back to winning ways at Goodwood (9f, soft) in September. Respectable efforts final 2 starts. Ground conditions will be fine on this return to action and he's competitively handicapped.
Did well for new yard in second half of last season but needs something extra on return.
12

Lattam

16
16/1(-60%)
(12) Lattam 16/1, Won the Irish Lincoln in the mud on his 2023 reappearance. Several other good efforts for William Haggas last season and he's an interesting new recruit for the Julie Camacho stable.
Won Irish Lincolnshire on 2023 reappearance; each-way claims on stable/seasonal debut.
11
3rd (11) Navagio (22/1 +0%)
Navagio

22
22/1(+0%)
(11) Navagio 22/1, Progressed into a useful performer in Ireland for Ray Cody last summer, winning 1m Limerick handicap and 9.5f Gowran conditions race. Not obviously well handicapped but worth a betting check now setting out for a new yard after a 47,000 gns sale last autumn.
Improved form in Ireland last summer but may be on a tough mark for stable debut.
22

Alpha Crucis

28
28/1(+58%)
(22) Alpha Crucis 28/1, Won twice over 1m in the mud last year. Better than result when sixth of 14 in 1m Newmarket final start. Still relatively low mileage. 2 lb out of handicap.
Only sixth when last seen but progressive prior; retains potential; interesting outsider.
10

Chazzesmee

2.5
5/2(+55%)
(10) Chazzesmee 5/2, Low-mileage 6-y-o who improved again to justify strong market support in last Monday's Irish Lincolnshire at the Curragh (1m, heavy). Did that comfortably and a major player under a 5 lb penalty if coping with the quick turnaround.
Travelled well to win Irish Lincolnshire on Monday; 5lb penalty may not stop him today.

(20) Spirit Genie 25/1, Won easily dropped to selling company last autumn but showed he can be very competitive from his mark in handicaps when second on heavy at Newmarket (1m) in November. Below par on AW later that month and off since.
Close 2nd on heavy ground on last turf run; returns with conditions to suit; could go well.

(5) Thunder Ball 11/1, Off the mark in 7f Newbury novice last May and deservedly gained a second career win in 1m Goodwood handicap (soft) on final start in October. A 6 lb rise for that stylish success looks fair. Could have a big say.
Progressive towards end of last season, including on soft; in mix if continuing good work.

The Gatekeeper

12

(6) The Gatekeeper 12/1, Rounded off a fine 2023 season with success in the valuable Balmoral handicap at Ascot (1m, soft) in October. Up to a triple-figure rating for the first time so will need to improve again if he's to land another big pot on his return.
Won the Balmoral Handicap when last seen; on career-high mark but not ruled out on return.
16

Chuzzlewit

(16) Chuzzlewit 66/1, Reacted well to blinkers (retained) when seeing off 5 rivals at Newcastle (1m) 10 days ago but not an obvious one to follow up off effectively 6 lb higher back on turf.
Won in first-time blinkers at Newcastle recently but best form has come on AW.
19

One Night Thunder

22
22/1(+45%)
(19) One Night Thunder 22/1, Lightly-raced winner. Ran well in the mud at Newmarket when fourth on her yard debut in November. Well beaten at Newcastle a fortnight later and absent since. Others are more obvious.
Below par on AW when last seen but encouraging stable debut previously; not written off.
17
11th (17) Parlando (33/1 +0%)
Parlando

33
33/1(+0%)
(17) Parlando 33/1, Useful sort who comes here on the back of a win in Bahrain last month. His debut success back in 2021 came on heavy ground but a 5 lb penalty for that recent win demands a big career best.
In good form in Bahrain over winter, winning last time; not ruled out under 5lb penalty.
13
12th (13) Dutch Decoy (33/1 -50%)
Dutch Decoy

33
33/1(-50%)
(13) Dutch Decoy 33/1, Five-time 7f/1m winner in 2022 and went in on the July Course at Newmarket last summer. Plenty of creditable efforts in top-end handicaps later in 2023 but remains 3 lb above that last successful mark on reappearance.
Consistent in good handicaps last year; each-way claims if at top of game on reappearance.
4
13th (4) Liberty Lane (5/1 -25%)
Liberty Lane

5
5/1(-25%)
(4) Liberty Lane 5/1, Smart and improved performance back from an 8-week break when edging out Sonny Liston (pair clear) in a 15-runner C&D handicap (soft) on St Leger day. Might not have been over those exertions when down the field in the Cambridgeshire a fortnight later. Taken to bounce back with a bang.
Won 15-runner C&D handicap on soft last September; conditions in favour on reappearance.
14
14th (14) Farhh To Shy (18/1 +45%)
Farhh To Shy

18
18/1(+45%)
(14) Farhh To Shy 18/1, Useful mare who scored over 1m at Ascot (soft) and 7f at Yarmouth last summer. Ended her 2023 campaign with good thirds at Ascot (handicap/listed). Jockey Benoit de la Sayette is bidding to win this for the third time in the last 4 years.
Some good form in 2023 but this 6yo mare may find today's company a shade too competitive.
18

Hieronymus

80
80/1(-100%)
(18) Hieronymus 80/1, Has been in good form with 2 AW wins at Kempton this year but shouldered with a 5 lb penalty as a result and likely to be up against it back on the grass.
In good form on AW of late but 0-17 on turf and has career-high mark now back on grass.
7
16th (7) Vetiver (11/1 +21%)
Vetiver

11
11/1(+21%)
(7) Vetiver 11/1, Three wins, notably a 7f Carlisle listed event on soft ground last June. Showed she can mix it in good handicaps when 2½ lengths fifth of 20 to The Gatekeeper in Balmoral at Ascot (1m, soft) final outing. This is only her eighth start so may not have reached her limit.
Solid 5th in Balmoral last time out; this lightly raced 4yo could still have more to offer.
9
17th (9) Blues Emperor (11/1 +21%)
Blues Emperor

11
11/1(+21%)
(9) Blues Emperor 11/1, Winner of 2 1m handicaps in Ireland last summer. Also excellent second of 20 in the Irish Cambridgeshire at the Curragh (1m, good) at the end of August. Ran poorly in a listed race final start but gone well fresh before and capable of bouncing back.
Highly progressive in Irish handicaps last year; open to further improvement; respected.
8
18th (8) Revich (80/1 -142%)
Revich

80
80/1(-142%)
(8) Revich 80/1, Returned to winning ways when narrowly taking 9-runner handicap at Ayr (1m, good) in September. Below par on AW a month later and off since. Sixth is the best he's managed in 3 previous attempts in this race.
Better than ever last year but has come up short in the last three runnings of this race.
2
19th (2) Johan (11/1 +0%)
Johan

11
11/1(+0%)
(2) Johan 11/1, Won this under Silvestre de Sousa 2 years ago and landed another big handicap when proving too strong for The Gatekeeper in the Golden Mile at Glorious Goodwood on his 2023 reappearance. Fifth in Redcar listed only subsequent start. Good record fresh makes him tough to discount.
Has won major handicaps on his last two reappearances; makes 2024 comeback today.
1
|RR| (1) Migration (20/1 -67%)
Migration

20
20/1(-67%)
(1) Migration 20/1, Very smart effort to defy top weight in this race on heavy ground a year ago, seeing off the reopposing Awaal. An even better performance will be needed off a 4 lb higher mark this time but can't be ruled out given how well he handles these conditions. Tongue tied first time.
Won this race 12 months ago on his reappearance; major player if again at top of his game.

15:35 Doncaster Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Chazzesmee justified strong market support to take the Irish Lincolnshire by a length on Monday and, providing that hasn't taken too much out of him, he could be a big player as he relishes these conditions. However, the vote goes to last year's winner of that Curragh contest LATTAM. The son of Lope De Vega clearly goes well fresh and he makes his return after finishing seventh behind The Gatekeeper at Ascot in October, for which he is 4lb better off. Last year's winner Migration and The Gatekeeper are others to watch out for.

LIBERTY LANE was impressive over this C&D on soft at last year's St Leger meeting and this relatively lightly-raced 4-y-o appeals as one who could have more to come in 2024. Chazzesmee was a good winner of the Irish version of this race on Monday and a 5 lb penalty won't prevent him making a bold bid for a notable double if coping with the quick turnaround. Awaal was second in this off an identical mark last year and also makes the shortlist along with Thunder Ball.

Having travelled well when winning the Irish Lincolnshire on Monday, CHAZZESMEE (nap) can defy a penalty and complete a notable double.

(6) Moon Over Miami 10/1, €130,000 yearling. Half-brother to 9f-13f winner Forest of Wisdom and 11.5f/12.5f winner Veules. Good yard no stranger to success with newcomers but jockey bookings suggest that Aulis is the first-string.
130,000euros yearling; bred for this sort of distance and beyond; yard runs two.

Harper's Ferry

(3) Harper's Ferry 11/8, Sent off at 50/1 on debut in a 1m Newmarket novice (good to soft) in October but that didn't stop him from running a big race, just failing to get to grips with an experienced rival and pulling nicely clear of the third. Holds an entry in the Derby and improvement should be forthcoming.
50-1 when a very promising second on only 2yo start; out of an Oaks winner; major chance.

52,000gns yearling; bred to be useful and needs a market check on debut.

King's Reign

4
4/1(-78%)
(4) King's Reign 4/1, Dubawi colt who cost 1,500,000 gns as a yearling and he's a half-brother to smart 2-y-o 7f/1m winner Silver Knott. Always on the backfoot after missing the break on debut at Wolverhampton (12.2f) but shaped encouragingly all the same and likely to leave that form well behind in time.
Beautifully bred son of Dubawi; green on debut; no surprise at all if he improves markedly.

Wild Waves

(7) Wild Waves 7/1, Half-brother to several winners and shaped with clear promise in a couple of 7f novice events at Sandown last summer. This trip will be more his thing and should make his presence felt for yard that has won 2 of the last 4 running of this maiden.
Stout pedigree suggests this trip will bring about improvement; yard targets this race.

Pleasing start when second at Wolverhampton; high on the list for an in-form stable.

Some promise at 7f/1m as a 2yo and bred to relish today's extra yardage.

16:10 Doncaster Maiden (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

In what should be a very informative affair, it is hard to look past the once-raced HARPER'S FERRY. Ed Walker's charge made a pleasing start when finishing a narrow second over a mile at Newmarket last October and, with the promise of more to come now he's upped in trip, the son of Lope De Vega looks the one to side with. Better can be expected from 1,500,000gns purchase King's Reign, who kept on into fourth when sent off favourite for his debut over 1m4f at Wolverhampton last month, while Moon Over Miami also commands respect.

Several promising types on show here with ANCIENT MYTH marginally preferred to Harper's Ferry. The latter is the only one of these with an entry in the Derby and he shaped with a great deal of promise on his sole 2-y-o start but Ancient Myth's debut at Wolverhampton was also very encouraging and the Godolphin colt who beat him that day could turn out to be pretty smart. King's Reign represents the 'boys in blue' in this maiden and he also respected, along with Wild Waves.

Top of the list is HARPER'S FERRY whose promising second at Newmarket last autumn came unheralded by the market.

Bustaam

7/1(-27%)
(6) Bustaam 7/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who fared better than previously when fourth of 11 in handicap at Newcastle (12.5f) in November. Not seen to best effect at that venue later that month and suspicion he has an even bigger effort in his locker and one to note back on turf from career-low mark.
Nothing special in 1m2f-1m4f Tapeta handicaps but gives impression he may do better yet.

(3) Moonlit Cloud 4/1, Returned with a respectable fifth at Kempton (11f) in January and seemed unsuited by the steady gallop when running below that level back at that venue 31 days ago. Conditions will hold no fears back on turf though and he comes here on a workable mark.
All three wins at 1m2f, including on heavy; can improve on recent AW runs now back on turf.

Awtaad Prince

(7) Awtaad Prince 9/2, Winless last year but fallen plenty in the weights and capitalised (in first-time hood) when seeing off 8 rivals at Chelmsford (10f) in February. Creditable third at Lingfield (12f) since and he's still unexposed at this sort of trip. Tongue strap back on.
Has won on heavy; took advantage of weights drop over 1m2f on AW last month.

Powerful Response

(5) Powerful Response 14/1, Improved to land back-to-back handicaps at Newcastle/Hamilton last summer and made the frame next 3 starts at 1m. Possible he's not most straightforward but excuses on final start at Pontefract in October. Reappears for new yard now and the market may prove a useful guide.
Two wins in 2023, over 7f (AW) and 1m (soft); much to prove for new yard up in trip.

Fifty Sent

Has run well on soft; sole win over 1m2f on AW last May but rarely tackles this far now.

At Liberty

Two AW wins this winter but below best on last 2 starts and turf win was back in 2021.

Won 1m2f maiden in Ireland; had some heavy defeats but didn't look a lost cause latest.

Never threatened at Newcastle final start but conditions will hold no fears on return and the assessor is relinquishing his grip.

Stout stayer who probably handles soft; good 5th over inadequate 1m1f on AW latest.

16:45 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

In a typically wide-open affair, the drop in trip may prove fruitful for connections of AWTAAD PRINCE. Amy Murphy's charge arrives on the back of a solid third over 1m4f at Lingfield and, off an unchanged mark back on the turf, he gets the vote to show his rivals the way home. Dangers are aplenty and headed by At Liberty, who races off just 1lb higher than when finishing an excellent second at Wolverhampton most recently, while Fifty Sent kept on well for third over a mile at Newcastle when last seen and now looks the perfect time to go back up to 10 furlongs.

David O'Meara has his string in good order and it could be worth chancing his 4-y-o BUSTAAM. He shaped with definite encouragement on his penultimate start at Newcastle in November and, with his subsequent run at that venue best overlooked, he's of interest back on turf from a career-low mark. At Liberty arrives fit and in-form from the all-weather and he's a player in refitted cheekpieces. Moonlit Cloud and Mrs Meader complete the shortlist.

A few of these will handle the conditions, including AT LIBERTY who may well improve on his recent AW form now back on turf.

(11) Zambezi Magic 15/2, Won twice at Ffos Las (both 10f) in summer 2022 but has been below that level since returning from almost year off the track, ninth of 11 at Kempton (11f) last time. Continues to fall in the weights without looking like taking advantage.
Quiet since back from 11 months off in October but well treated and conditions will suit.

(9) Eleven Eleven 11/1, Had dropped to a career-low mark and took advantage when winning at Newcastle on 2 of his first 3 starts of the year. Quickly left behind a lesser efffort when a close third at the same course (7.1f) 15 days ago, so he's one to consider back up in trip.
Two AW wins this year at 1m and 7f; unconvincing in most attempts beyond about 1m.

17:20 Doncaster Handicap (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

DESTINADO gave the impression that his turn could be just around the corner when finishing second over 1m3f at Southwell last week, pulling clear with the eventual winner. Off a 1lb higher mark, he can make this return to turf a winning one. The forecast underfoot conditions should hold no fears for Fen Tiger, who was last seen finishing a close second over 1m4f at Brighton in September. He rates the main danger to the selection, while Val Bassett represents an in-form stable and completes the shortlist.

DESTINADO has been in fine form on the all-weather this year, winning 4 times and pulling clear of the rest when runner-up at Southwell last week, so he is taken to add to his tally back on turf. Chagall hasn't been seen to best effect on his last couple of starts and is respected, while Eleven Eleven is another who enters calculations.

Destinado comes here in good form from the AW but VAL BASSETT will be suited by conditions and is well treated now.

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.
