1st (7)  (5/1 -67%)Ring The Moon |
5/1(-67%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Ring The Moon 5/1, Notched third success over fences at Ffos Las (2m) recently and though still a maiden following eight appearances in this sphere, he has hit the crossbar three times in handicap hurdles. One of the more likely winners. | |||
2nd (4)  (18/1 +10%)Mackie Dee |
18/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mackie Dee 18/1, Hit-and-miss since scoring over fences at Huntingdon in November 2020 and he's yet to strike following nine attempts in this sphere. No more than an each-way squeak on these terms. | |||
3rd (8)  (2.75/1 +8%)Secret Secret |
2.75/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Secret Secret 2.75/1, Perfect start for new yard when landing a Stratford seller (18.6f) in October. Not disgraced when third at Taunton the following month and claims if fully tuned-up back from a break with conditions in his favour. | |||
4th (6)  (16/1 -191%)Quiana |
16/1(-191%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Quiana 16/1, French Flat winner who went close in an AW bumper at Kempton last February. Would be a big player if able to translate that form to this sphere, but barely beaten a rival home in handicap hurdles on last four starts. | |||
5th (1)  (1.2/1 +52%)An Marcach |
1.2/1(+52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) An Marcach 1.2/1, Sole success from 27 starts for Des Donovan in Ireland came in a 2½m Clonmel handicap chase last spring. 0-15 in this sphere, but makes debut for shrewd yard at a lowly level and confidence behind him in the betting would look significant. | |||
6th (9)  (16/1 -45%)The Silver Ginge |
16/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) The Silver Ginge 16/1, Went in snatches when well held in a bumper and very little to shout about in maiden/novice hurdles, distant last of five finishers when blinkered for the first time (retained here) at Warwick last week. | |||
7th (3)  (28/1 -56%)Hartland Quay |
28/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hartland Quay 28/1, Showed more spark when making the frame in handicaps at Exeter and Catterick in January/February. However, poor efforts the last twice (over fences tried in cheekpieces last time) and connections now reach for blinkers. | |||
8th (5)  (40/1 +20%)Mister Moretti |
40/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mister Moretti 40/1, Has offered little in half-a-dozen starts under Rules and looks set for another struggle. | |||
|PU| (2)  (40/1 -186%)Candyman Can |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Candyman Can 40/1, Veteran who ran out the surprise winner of a Newton Abbot handicap chase when last seen in July (has had a wind op in the interm). Tongue tie now added and faces a stiff task back hurdling on these terms. |

2.75/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Technological 2.75/1, Useful at best on the Flat up to 2m and placed on three of his four starts since switched to hurdles, including when third in a five-runner Ludlow handicap 13 days ago. More needed, but it's still early days and he needs considering. | |||
2nd (3)  (4/1 +0%)Thahab Ifraj |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Thahab Ifraj 4/1, Good strike rate over hurdles (5-22) and while he was below par in second half of last year, the handicapper has cut him some slack (back down to last winning mark) and his record when fresh is another positive factor. | |||
3rd (2)  (0.67/1 +44%)Get Back Get Back |
0.67/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Get Back Get Back 0.67/1, Bagged a couple of handicaps in 2020 and has found just one too good on four of his last five starts. including at Wincanton when last seen in October. Sketchy jumping means that he comes with risks attached, but definite chance here with conditions in his favour. |

0.62/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wicked West 0.62/1, Improved model for new stable, winning maiden/novice events last year. Good efforts last 4 starts and could the answer on this switch to chasing for an in-form yard. | |||
2nd (2)  (5/1 -122%)Raffles Gitane |
5/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Raffles Gitane 5/1, Improved to get off the mark over fences in 2m handicap chase at Huntingdon in January, forging clear from last. Failed to recover after an early blunder at Stratford last time, so well worth another chance. | |||
3rd (3)  (2.5/1 -11%)Shiroccan Roll |
2.5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Shiroccan Roll 2.5/1, Winning hurdler. Mixed record over fences but responded well to this headgear when scoring at Market Rasen in November. Failed to back that up in a stronger affair at Taunton the following month though, so has a bit to prove on this return to action. |

2.5/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mr Tambourine Man 2.5/1, Started out for this yard with some creditable efforts but needs to shrug off below-par efforts on his last 2 starts. Been given a short break. | |||
2nd (4)  (1.62/1 -30%)Wetanwindy |
1.62/1(-30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Wetanwindy 1.62/1, Progressing well in handicaps, winning at Wincanton last month and showing even better form when runner-up over 21f there since. Good chance he can get his head back in front here. | |||
3rd (1)  (4/1 +38%)Nickelsonthedime |
4/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Nickelsonthedime 4/1, Remains a maiden over hurdles. Did run well when hitting the crossbar at Hereford in February but disappointed when down the field at Wincanton last month. | |||
4th (5)  (6.5/1 +7%)Walk Away Now |
6.5/1(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Walk Away Now 6.5/1, Well beaten on his 21f Wincanton handicap debut in February but it's still early days in his career and the stable has been among the winners. | |||
5th (3)  (10/1 -122%)Moot Court |
10/1(-122%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Moot Court 10/1, Hinted at promise when third in a Chepstow bumper. Similar story in his qualifying runs over hurdles without always finding that much off the bridle. Unexposed now handicapping. |

18/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Carrigready 18/1, Struggled in 2 runs in Ireland last winter. Was running respectably when falling 2 out on his hurdle return for new stable last month and he does have some handicapping scope if able to build on that now back chasing (placed over fences in 2019). | |||
2nd (6)  (7.5/1 -15%)Calarules |
7.5/1(-15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Calarules 7.5/1, Inconsistent operator over hurdles and no significant impact in a pair of chases in recent month. Cut some slack by the handicapper but will still need a change of headgear (first-time visor for cheekpieces) to give him a bit extra. | |||
3rd (2)  (2/1 -23%)San Agustin |
2/1(-23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) San Agustin 2/1, Hurdles winner who made it third time lucky over fences with cheekpieces enlisted in a fast-ground Leicester handicap in December. 3 lb rise may not stop him on return with his yard among the winners. | |||
4th (1)  (5.5/1 +39%)Wick Green |
5.5/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wick Green 5.5/1, Multiple point winner whose record under Rules is rather all or nothing so far, making a winning return/handicap bow in 4-runner event at Hereford but well held twice since. | |||
5th (4)  (6.5/1 +19%)Tea Time On Mars |
6.5/1(+19%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Tea Time On Mars 6.5/1, Dual chase winner who wasn't disgraced when third over C&D in November. Best effort since when third at Hereford in February but well held at Chepstow since. | |||
6th (3)  (5.5/1 -38%)Normandy Soldier |
5.5/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Normandy Soldier 5.5/1, Fair hurdle winner who came good over fences in C&D handicap in November. Failed to back that up in a marathon event here over Christmas but claims if on a going day after a break. | |||
|PU| (7)  (4/1 +33%)One For Dunstan |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) One For Dunstan 4/1, Has pulled up on 4 of his last 5 starts, the latest at Plumpton 3 weeks ago on the back of a wind operation. Tumbling in the weights but comes with obvious risks. |

5.5/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) To Be Sure 5.5/1, Ffos Las winner in November and cast aside a couple of lesser efforts when runner-up back at that venue in February. Disappointing at Ludlow last time, so needs to bounce back. | |||
2nd (2)  (9/1 +10%)Danny Whizzbang |
9/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Danny Whizzbang 9/1, Useful chaser at best but out of sorts for new yard this season. Showed little when returned to hurdling at Huntingdon in January, so has plenty to prove. | |||
3rd (5)  (3/1 +33%)Trixster |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Trixster 3/1, Took advantage of a much-reduced mark to register his first win in over 3 years in 5-runner handicap at Taunton in March. Just as good when third at Market Rasen last time, despite needing a stronger gallop, so very much respected. | |||
4th (7)  (2.75/1 +21%)Johnny B |
2.75/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Johnny B 2.75/1, Maiden hurdler who bounced back to form when second over C&D in February. Not so good on chasing debut at Wincanton but possibly found the race coming too soon. | |||
5th (1)  (14/1 -65%)Aviewtosea |
14/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aviewtosea 14/1, Bumper winner who struck at first time of asking over hurdles in a 23f Bangor maiden last April. Ran to a similar level when fourth on his Ludlow return but was pulled up on his handicap debut last time. | |||
6th (4)  (11/1 +31%)Ballintubber Boy |
11/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ballintubber Boy 11/1, Winner of a Stratford maiden and Hereford novice on first 2 starts in this sphere. However, pulled up on handicap debut at Fontwell and jumped badly when well held at Warwick last time. Cheekpieces on. | |||
7th (3)  (4/1 -129%)Mason Jar |
4/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mason Jar 4/1, Completed a handicap hurdle hat-trick in autumn 2019. Found life tougher since but he stepped up on his comeback run when third at Sedgefield 30 days ago, despite the run of the race going against him, and is now 3 lb lower. Player. |

1.1/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Twig 1.1/1, Little impact in bumpers a couple of seasons back but since a multiple winning pointer, including last time (Feb 20). | |||
2nd (1)  (2.25/1 -38%)Rolling Dylan |
2.25/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Rolling Dylan 2.25/1, Not one to rely on as a rule but back in good form, winning extended 3m military amateur rider events at Sandown the last twice. Good chance here if continuing in the same mood. | |||
3rd (6)  (10/1 -43%)Wotzizname |
10/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Wotzizname 10/1, Useful over hurdles and fences (C&D winner) at his best. Dual winning pointer more recently, placed last time (Feb 27). Likely type. | |||
4th (2)  (3.5/1 -17%)West Approach |
3.5/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) West Approach 3.5/1, Irresolute but took a Wincanton match over 25f in February. Might have found 20f there inadequate last time and he's won here over fences previously. One to consider in re-fitted tongue tie. | |||
5th (4)  (28/1 +30%)Smithscorner |
28/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Smithscorner 28/1, Fairly useful chaser in Ireland and a dual winning pointer there (third last time, Feb 27). |

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.
