1st (3) Snowy Evening (3/1 -20%)
Snowy Evening

3
3/1(-20%)
(3) Snowy Evening 3/1, Promising sort who has run creditably in both starts over fences, latest when third of 9 in handicap (10/3) at Wetherby (24.2f, heavy) 28 days ago. Likely has more to offer yet.
Placed in first two chases, despite some rather sketchy jumping on both occasions.
10
2nd (10) Bring The Action (11/4 +73%)
Bring The Action

2.75
11/4(+73%)
(10) Bring The Action 11/4, Sole success came in Wetherby handicap chase (24.2f) early in 2022. Just the one decent effort last season and well held over hurdles on return but potentially on a good mark back in this sphere.
Good second in this race a year ago but not much has gone to plan since; revival needed.

The Electrician

28
28/1(-100%)
(11) The Electrician 28/1, Dual winner over shorter last season but more recent efforts have lacked verve and switch to new yard seemed to have little impact at Hexham last month. Cheekpieces back on.
Has ground excuse for disappointing stable debut but others appeal more all the same.

Game Socks

14/1(-75%)
(1) Game Socks 14/1, Dual winner over hurdles who got off the mark at third attempt in this sphere when taking 6-runner handicap at Worcester (23f, good to soft) in June of 2022. Not seen since, though, and market may prove best guide to claims on return. Had wind operation.
Off the mark over fences at Worcester in summer 2022 but not seen again since.

(5) Betterforeveryone 5/1, Got off the mark at Bangor (23f) over hurdles on return last year but couldn't really build on that and never threatened when last of 3 finishers on chase debut at Warwick last month. Cheekpieces on first time.
Tailed off before inheriting modest third on seasonal/chase debut; cheekpieces added here.

Creative Control

(4) Creative Control 15/2, Back to winning ways in 7-runner handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f) in September. Fortunate on that occasion given leader unseated late and not been in quite same form since. Tries longer trip now. Tongue strap on first time.
Fortunate to win at Uttoxeter three starts ago and safely held twice since.

Head On

3.333333
10/3(+17%)
(8) Head On 10/3, Won 3 times (at up to 25.5f) in the early stages of the 2021-22 season and clearly derived considerable benefit from his comeback run (off 19 months) when second of 7 in handicap chase at this course (24f, good) 15 days ago. Visor back on. Enters calculations.
Ran big race from the front when second over 3m here a fortnight ago; major player.
LTO Selection:

11:49 Doncaster Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

This looks a good opportunity for SNOWY EVENING to make it third-time lucky over fences following successive placed efforts at Chepstow and Wetherby. The six-year-old hasn't jumped with any real fluency on either occasion but if he brushes up in that department, his present mark is clearly exploitable. Game Socks, a winner at Worcester when last seen, would be an obvious danger if tuned up after a long absence. Head On showed enough when runner-up here recently to suggest he'll be in the firing line too.

SNOWY EVENING has made an encouraging start to his chasing career and it's likely we haven't seen the best of him yet. He can get off the mark. Head On and Art Decco should also go well.

Preference is for HEAD ON, who is still on a good mark after running well in defeat over 3m here a fortnight ago.

Sea Grey

1.375
11/8(+66%)
(10) Sea Grey 11/8, Fairly useful performer on Flat, making the frame 3 times for David O'Meara this year. Has to be of interest on hurdling debut for new yard, particularly if market speaks in his favour.
Fairly useful Flat-racer at up to 2m; with good stable for hurdling career; interesting.

Cuban Court

6/1(+57%)
(3) Cuban Court 6/1, Made a winning debut in 4-runner Fontwell bumper in April 2022 and showed even better form in defeat after a year off when runner-up at this course next time. However, proved disappointing since, including on hurdles bow last month.
Made promising start to career in bumpers but was pulled up on recent hurdle debut.

(11) Tufton Avenue 33/1, Successful in match on sole points outing but never really threatened in a couple of bumpers last year and is best watched on hurdles debut for new connections here.

(7) King Of The Road 25/1, Easy to back before finishing eleventh of 13 in bumper at Newbury (16.3f, soft) on NH debut 23 days ago, pulling hard. Looks to be stable's second string on hurdles bow.
Tailed off in Newbury bumper on rules debut; stable's other one has much stronger claims.

Jean De Monts

(6) Jean De Monts 15/2, Showed some ability when sixth in 2m minor event on only outing on Flat in France and is worth monitoring in market on hurdles debut for excellent yard.
Some some ability on French Flat debut; probably best watched on British/hurdle debut.
LTO Selection:

12:21 Doncaster Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Ben Pauling's point-to-point recruit PERSONAL AMBITION shaped with considerable promise when scoring on his hurdling debut at Warwick and it's hard to believe he isn't up to defying a penalty in this company, with improvement in the tank. For all that, Sea Grey, a 75-rated Flat performer for David O'Meara, looks an interesting newcomer to hurdles now with Donald McCain, while the selection's stablemate King Of The Road appeared to run too badly to be true on his recent introduction in a bumper at Newbury.

Warwick winner PERSONAL AMBITION looks to have been found a good opportunity to double his tally and can take full advantage. Hurdling debutants Sea Grey and Jean de Monts may provide the chief threat.

It's difficult to oppose PERSONAL AMBITION, who won in good style at Warwick last month and can overcome a penalty.

Harry's Hope

()
(6) Harry's Hope , Off mark in Irish points at third attempt (Apr 23) but well-held sixth in novice at Ludlow on hurdling debut. Needs to take a marked step forward.
28-1 when tailed off in a Ludlow hurdle and this chasing type may need more time.
9
1st (9) Mistral Blue (7/2 -20%)
Mistral Blue

3.5
7/2(-20%)
(9) Mistral Blue 7/2, Offered something to work on when fifth at Fakenham on debut in April. Yet to build on that but switch to hurdling and step up in trip could bring more out of her.
Promise to take from her bumpers; stout pedigree and soon up in trip over hurdles.
1
2nd (1) After Many Days (5/2 +58%)
After Many Days

2.5
5/2(+58%)
(1) After Many Days 5/2, Shaped with a good degree of promise amidst inexperience when fourth of 10 on debut in bumper at Ludlow in May and left the impression she'd strip fitter for her hurdling debut (when fourth) at Huntingdon last month. Open to improvement and should feature.
Ability in both runs; from a fine jumping family and should improve with experience.
12
3rd (12) Sanda Rena (13/8 +98%)
Sanda Rena

1.625
13/8(+98%)
(12) Sanda Rena 13/8, £150,000 purchase after winning an Irish point last December and finished third on Rules debut in a bumper here in March. Only sixth starting out over hurdles at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) earlier this month but likely to do better in time.
Point winner; placed in a bumper but hurdling debut at Newbury was underwhelming.
3
4th (3) Brief Statement (4/1 +43%)
Brief Statement

4
4/1(+43%)
(3) Brief Statement 4/1, Easy winner of sole start in Irish points but pulled too hard when fifth in a novice at Huntingdon on initial hurdling outing. Should improve if she settles better.
Raced freely when well beaten at Huntingdon; may do better now tongue tied.
7
5th (7) Little Talks (33/1 +20%)
Little Talks

33
33/1(+20%)
(7) Little Talks 33/1, Runner-up only start in Irish points (May 7) but pulled up in a novice at Ludlow on hurdling debut and others make more appeal. Engaged 12.50 here Friday.
Lost ground quickly and was pulled up at Ludlow (2m5f; 66-1).
LTO Selection:

12:56 Doncaster Maiden Hurdle (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Having shaped nicely when fourth in a stronger looking event than this at Wetherby on her seasonal/hurdling debut, DONTYAWANTME now reverts to mares-only company and could take some stopping with that experience to draw on. After Many Days and Mistral Blue are others to have shown similar promise, while dual point-to-point winner Chatshow Host is likely much better than she showed on very testing ground at Hexham on her hurdling bow.

DONTYAWANTME showed plenty in bumpers and travelled well for a long way (needed the run) when fourth at Wetherby on her hurdling debut. With improvement on the cards, she's preferred to After Many Days, with Mistral Blue another one to consider.

Fergal O'Brien's MISTRAL BLUE earns marginal preference in what is an open race for a novices' hurdle.

Clear White Light

6.5
13/2(+41%)
(6) Clear White Light 13/2, Hexham maiden winner for Sandy Forster who went the right way in handicaps for current yard last term, winning twice at around 2½m, including at this venue. Ridden too aggressively in Morebattle Hurdle (Handicap) at Kelso prior to showing fair form on the Flat.
Lacks a run and, even if on his game, this might be too tough.
2
3rd (2) Mr Freedom (5/2 +29%)
Mr Freedom

2.5
5/2(+29%)
(2) Mr Freedom 5/2, Likeable type who followed 4 wins over hurdles last season with a hat-trick on the Flat during the summer. Ran really well again back over timber after a break when runner-up at Fontwell (conceded first run) in October and backed that up with a good third a Plumpton since. Interesting back at 2m.
Consistent dual-purpose performer; perhaps vulnerable off this high a mark.
7
4th (7) Spartan Army (10/3 +63%)
Spartan Army

3.333333
10/3(+63%)
(7) Spartan Army 10/3, Dual winner as a juvenile hurdler and, fit from the Flat, matched that form when third in a Plumpton handicap (15.9f) 26 days ago. The runner-up has franked that form since, so he has to be considered a player from a 2 lb lower mark.
Solid third at Plumpton latest; 2lb lower for this but in a stronger race.
4
5th (4) Hurricane Ali (10/1 -100%)
Hurricane Ali

10
10/1(-100%)
(4) Hurricane Ali 10/1, Reliable sort who kept mistakes to a minimum and ran another good race when second in 7-runner handicap at Wetherby (2m) 45 days ago. Likely to give his running once more.
Ten defeats on the trot and his handicap mark hasn't moved very far.
3
6th (3) Collingham (13/2 -63%)
Collingham

6.5
13/2(-63%)
(3) Collingham 13/2, Enjoyed a good campaign last term, winning at Wetherby and Musselburgh. Found life tougher in a more competitive environment at Aintree in April but ran creditably back down in grade at Musselburgh on his return last month, despite needing a stronger gallop. Player.
More on his plate at the weights than when a pleasing third at Musselburgh.
5
7th (5) Oakley (12/1 +52%)
Oakley

12
12/1(+52%)
(5) Oakley 12/1, Off the mark for present stable at Stratford (2m, soft) in spring 2022 and posted a good third at Cheltenham in December but well below form both starts since.
He was beaten a long way out on his return from a break at Newbury.
LTO Selection:

13:31 Doncaster Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 17f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Mr Freedom finished a close-up third in this grade at Plumpton on his latest outing and he should go well off a 2lb higher rating. However, preference is for COLLINGHAM, who failed to justify favouritism on his return to action at Musselburgh, but he has been dropped 1lb for that effort and has Brian Hughes back in the plate so he looks set for a big run. Hurricane Ali ran with credit when second at Wetherby and could also have a say.

The selection is BALLYBREEZE, who reverts to hurdling on a fair mark after unseating his rider at the first on his return (over fences) at Cheltenham. Mr Freedom has posted two solid efforts already this season and looks interesting back at 2m, with Spartan Army completing the shortlist having shaped a bit better than the bare result on his first handicap start in this sphere at Plumpton last month.

The 7yo BALLYBREEZE could be a better horse now than when last seen over hurdles and he's rated 9lb higher as a chaser.

9/4(-29%)
(1) General Officer 9/4, Winning pointer who showed fairly useful form over hurdles last season. Positive start to chasing and bumped into one at Aintree last time. Worth a chance to go one better back up in trip.
Runner-up in both chase starts and this trip could be a better fit than 2m.

Hat-trick over hurdles for Dan Skelton, making all; bought for £38,000.

School Days Over

(2) School Days Over 9/4, Looked a useful prospect in bumpers and, having failed to match that level over hurdles, got his career firmly back on track when running out a comfortable winner of a handicap at Hereford on chasing debut. More to come and looks a big player.
Jumped well in the main when successful on chase debut at Hereford; up 5lb.

Joe Dadancer

9/4(+68%)
(3) Joe Dadancer 9/4, Clear when fell last sole start in Irish points and showed fair form over hurdles last season. Type to improve for the larger obstacles, so warrants close market observation back from 7 months off/wind op.
Winning hurdler and the type to do well over fences; had wind surgery.

Technology

7.5
15/2(+25%)
(5) Technology 15/2, Fair in bumpers and promising start over hurdles. Dropped out quickly when pulled up at Chepstow when last seen 8 months ago but bred to take to chasing on return.
Maiden hurdler; looks vulnerable unless he can raise his game over fences.
LTO Selection:

14:06 Doncaster Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

William Of York recorded a hat-trick before switching to the Rebecca Menzies stable and he makes his return to the fray off a 5lb higher mark. He is worthy of consideration on his fencing debut, but SCHOOL DAYS OVER has match-fitness on his side after making his first chasing start a victorious one at Hereford. The six-year-old should have no issues with this slightly shorter trip and can go in again off a 5lb higher rating. General Officer is a consistent performer and is another to note.

GENERAL OFFICER has impressed with his jumping in two chase outings so far this term and, having been second only to an impressive chasing debutant (who has run well since) at Aintree last time, he looks the most appealing here. School Days Over is an obvious threat after making a winning start in this sphere and ex-pointer Joe Dadancer should relish the larger obstacles.

Most have chances but GENERAL OFFICER (nap) impressed with his jumping when the clear runner-up behind a talented winner at Aintree.

Foster'sisland

5
5/1(+0%)
(3) Foster'sisland 5/1, Likeable type who found a bit more improvement to land a Bangor handicap in March and shaped as if better for the run when fifth at Carlisle on reappearance. Should be spot on, now.
Ended last season with a career-best effort and made encouraging return last month.

1st (2) Peking Rose (3/1 +50%)
Peking Rose

3/1(+50%)
(2) Peking Rose 3/1, Latest win in hurdle at Aintree in October 2022. 12/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Newbury (20.5f, soft) when last seen. Has a good record fresh and back from 11 months off on a feasible mark, so worth a look in the betting.
Not seen since last New Year's Eve but won competitive race when fresh last autumn.

Yet to build upon last year's easy novice win but still has potential.

Fricotin

33
33/1(-65%)
(6) Fricotin 33/1, A fairly useful hurdles/chase winner for Francois Nicolle in 2022. Pulled up over fences at Wetherby on stable debut last month, leaving him with a bit to prove.
Hurdle/chase winner in France last year but struggled on recent British debut.
LTO Selection:

14:41 Doncaster Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

MATCHLESS won in good style over the extended 1m7f at Musselburgh last time and a repeat of that effort would make him difficult to beat. Jennie Candlish's charge shaped as if this extra yardage wouldn't be an issue when running on gamely on that occasion, and a 4lb rise doesn't appear out of his reach. Foster'sisland is also worthy of consideration having been dropped 2lb in the ratings, while Peking Rose is noted after 336 day off the track.

COBBLERS DREAM is well treated on the pick of his efforts and returned with a solid showing at Kempton 19 days ago. He's worth chancing to get back to his best but the likes of Foster'sisland and Matchless look serious opponents.

The suggestion is FOSTER'SISLAND, who slammed a dual subsequent winner on his final start last season and ran well on his reappearance.

(2) Carved In Stone 16/1, Mastercraftsman gelding. Fifth of 11 in bumper (5/1) at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) on NH debut 23 days ago, plugging on. Entitled to be sharper with that run under his belt and booking of Brian Hughes catches the eye.

Plausible pedigree for a race of this type; stable 4-34 in bumpers in last five seasons.

Never dangerous when fifth of 14 at Huntingdon in October; could improve.

Soundly beaten on debut at Exeter but went off favourite and is seemingly well regarded.

(9) Miss Mink 33/1, Passing Glance filly. 9/2, sixth of 9 in bumper at Stratford (16.3f, heavy) on NH debut 30 days ago, running green and unable to land a blow.
Unable to challenge when sixth of nine at Stratford; may well improve markedly.

(10) Raise Your Glass 22/1, Jack Hobbs filly. Dam (c125/h114) 19f-2¾m hurdle/chase winner. Makes appeal on debut and worth noting if market vibes are positive.
Bred for longer distances and obstacles so could be more of a long-term prospect.

(5) Gore Point 7/2, Order of St George gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat, including useful 1½m winner Scampi. Encouraging debut run when second of 11 in bumper at Ludlow (15.7f) 23 days ago, faring best of those held up. Entitled to have learned from that and he's worth considering now tongue tied.
Better the further he went when second at Ludlow; this track should play to his strengths.

(1) Beaming Light 125/1, Harbour Law gelding. Showed more temperament than ability in a Huntingdon bumper on debut 53 days ago, hanging badly left home turn and running out. Passed over on the back of that here.
Hung badly and ran out on debut; difficult to recommend.
LTO Selection:

15:16 Doncaster NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Having made a pleasing start to his career when occupying the runner-up berth over 1m5f at Exeter, improvement can be expected from CAUSTIC. Owen Burrows' youngster shaped as if this step up in trip would suit and he is likely to come on for the run. Gore Point should also be thereabouts after a good second on his first taste of competitive action at Ludlow, while Stratford third Rockola makes most appeal of the remainder.

GORE POINT produced a promising first effort when runner-up in a Ludlow bumper 23 days ago, faring best of those held up and, equipped with a first-time tongue tie, he gets the nod to build on that here and go one place better. Caustic also filled the runners-up spot on debut at Exeter recently and he's feared. Rockola and Mapogo are others to keep an eye on.

Gore Point is much respected but marginal preference is for the Owen Burrows-trained CAUSTIC who also shaped well on his debut.

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.
