Again pulled hard and struggled at Cheltenham next time but given a break and this longer trip should suit. | |||

0.57/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Forever William 0.57/1, Struck at the first time of asking over hurdles at Newbury (extended 2m) in December. Similar form when third twice after in Graded company before proving too keen and making mistakes tried in a visor in the Fred Winter. Up in trip with different headgear now on. Obvious shout. | |||

7/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Zamond 7/1, Ex-Irish winner. With blinkers reapplied, produced best effort for current yard when respectable fourth in handicap at Musselburgh (17.4f) 24 days ago. Could go well back down in grade. | |||

5.5/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rapaport 5.5/1, Bettered low-key hurdles debut when third at Carlisle (19.3f) after 14 months off but has failed to back that up, including on handicap debut last time. Back down in trip with Brian Hughes booked. | |||

3.33/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Potters Hedger 3.33/1, C&D winner. Suited by emphasis on stamina when winning at Haydock (3m) last winter. Best effort this term when fourth back there in January. Has dropped in the weights so could do better back here. | |||

16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Minellacelebration 16/1, Seemingly on the downgrade this season and hard to fancy after another below-par effort at Taunton last time. | |||
2nd (7)  (4.5/1 +36%)Potters Legend |
4.5/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Potters Legend 4.5/1, Won a weaker renewal of this last season and is yet to fully fire this term, jumping again the issue when a soundly-beaten second over C&D last month. Well treated if back to best, though. | |||
3rd (2)  (10/1 -54%)Kauto Riko |
10/1(-54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Kauto Riko 10/1, Creditable fourth in the Cotswold Chase at Cheltenham in January but arrives here on the back of a lacklustre display at Newbury, finding nothing off the bridle. Bit to prove now but capable at his best. | |||
4th (3)  (12/1 -20%)Final Nudge |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Final Nudge 12/1, Thorough stayer who can count a win and a second as his efforts in veterans' company this season. Pulled up in the Midlands National last time but hard to discount back at this level. | |||
5th (4)  (7.5/1 +6%)Minella Encore |
7.5/1(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Minella Encore 7.5/1, Won over C&D and at Ludlow this season and ran respectably returning from another wind-op at Ascot last time. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. | |||
|F| (6)  (12/1 -33%)Royal Village |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Royal Village 12/1, Won at Market Rasen in July and ran creditably on return from a winter break at Carlisle last month, but others looks more solid for win purposes. | |||
|PU| (9)  (3.33/1 -11%)Bermeo |
3.33/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Bermeo 3.33/1, Failed to fire for Tim Vaughan this term but made winning debut for Harry Fry at Newbury 16 days ago. Yard enjoying good spell and 8 lb higher mark is fair on best form, so he ranks high on shortlist. | |||
|PU| (8)  (5/1 -11%)Brianstorm |
5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Brianstorm 5/1, Hit-and-miss performer but has run well behind progressive rivals on several occasions this term, including when second at Market Rasen last time. Considered on first start in veterans' company. | |||
|PU| (1)  (5.5/1 +15%)Some Chaos |
5.5/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Some Chaos 5.5/1, Scored in veterans' company at Chepstow in October and has posted creditable efforts in similar events on his last 2 outings, so looks likely to go well again. |

1.25/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Not That Fuisse 1.25/1, Useful chaser who arrives on a hat-trick having landed hunters over C&D and at Warwick the last twice. Obvious claims. | |||
2nd (1)  (1.1/1 -64%)Law Of Gold |
1.1/1(-64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Law Of Gold 1.1/1, Useful sort who claimed his fourth hunter success when readily landing a match at Ascot last time. Still appears to be getting better, so fancied to go in again. | |||
3rd (5)  (6.5/1 +28%)Midnight Cowboy |
6.5/1(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Midnight Cowboy 6.5/1, One-time useful chaser who has been in good order between the flags since last seen under Rules. One to consider back in hunters. | |||

28/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Chapelier 28/1, Is of little account these days and was well held behind Not That Fuisse over C&D a month ago. Hard to fancy despite first-time cheekpieces. | |||
|PU| (6)  (66/1 +0%)Mighty Altogether |
66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mighty Altogether 66/1, Maiden pointer who was only fourth at Stratford on hunter debut 8 days ago. Likely to be outclassed. |

3/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Pure Theatre 3/1, Closely related to 4 winners and was doing her best work at the finish when fourth at Southwell on debut. Entitled to build on that, so can't be dismissed. | |||

3.33/1(+26%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Coin Basket 3.33/1, €22,000 3-y-o, £32,000 5-y-o, Flemensfirth mare. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/high-class chaser (stayed 3m) Last Instalment. Runner-up completed start in Irish points (Dec 30). One to note. | |||

3.33/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kimberley Eve 3.33/1, Placed on two of her three bumper outings but it's only modest form and she looks vulnerable to some interesting Rules debutants. | |||
(3)  (4/1 -45%)Famous Function |
4/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Famous Function 4/1, Fame And Glory mare. Half-sister to fair hurdler Shirocco's Dream and bumper winner Arion Sky. Made frame both starts in Irish points, runner-up latest (Jan 29). Big player on Rules bow. | |||

28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Value Till Dawn 28/1, Dylan Thomas mare. Dam, well beaten sole start over hurdles, closely related to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (19f-2½m winner) Street Value. Made frame both completed starts in points (Jan 16 latest). | |||

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.
