Cannon Rock |
(7) (9/4 +18%)9/4(+18%) | (7) Cannon Rock 9/4, Useful Flat winner and a good second in handicap at Kempton (12f) 11 days ago. Brings plenty of potential to this sphere. Interesting. Two Flat wins, latest after a 504-day break; good AW 2nd latest; player on hurdles debut. |

Brave Jen |
(11) (12/1 -20%)12/1(-20%) | (11) Brave Jen 12/1, A fair hurdler for Nicky Henderson.but fell 3rd in handicap hurdle at Aintree (20f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Needs to hit the ground running for her new handler. £7,000 buy in May; 2nd in Newbury Listed race in December; not as good since; stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (4) (11/8 +77%) Pleasant Man |
11/8(+77%) | (4) Pleasant Man 11/8, Useful stayer on Flat. Yet to win in this sphere but consistent sort who can go well again reverted to this sphere after a break. Was quite useful on the Flat; placed five times hurdling for Paul Nicholls; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (20/1 -25%) A Day To Dream |
20/1(-25%) | (6) A Day To Dream 20/1, Modest winner at 12f on flat. Aggressively ridden when fading fifth of 8 in novice hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 14/1) on NH debut 23 days ago. Can take a step forward. Ordinary Flat handicapper; quite a promising fifth on hurdles debut and should improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/1 +42%) Natchez Trace |
7/1(+42%) | (3) Natchez Trace 7/1, Fair winner at 12f on flat who wasn't disgraced when fourth of 9 in handicap at Haydock (11.8f 8 days ago. Switches to hurdles and can't be discounted. Won on the AW on Flat; fourth on hurdles debut, just behind Bristol Hill; should improve. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (13/8 +64%) Dirty Den |
13/8(+64%) | (8) Dirty Den 13/8, Fair winner at 14f in bumpers and not disgraced when second of 10 in novice hurdle at Hereford (16.2f, good) 26 days ago. Shortlisted. Bumper winner on debut; promising 2nd over hurdles last time (form sound); contender. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (12/1 -20%) Bristol Hill |
12/1(-20%) | (1) Bristol Hill 12/1, Modest handicapper on the Flat. Switched to hurdles and third of 11 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Can build on that encouraging first effort. AW Flat winner; quite a promising debut when third at Huntingdon; improvement likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (10) (100/1 -203%) Runaway Train |
100/1(-203%) | (10) Runaway Train 100/1, Seventh of 9 in bumper (12/1) at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Needs to step forward on his hurdles debut. Fair bumper run last time; hurdles debut; looks stable's second string behind Cannon Rock. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (13) (33/1 +0%) Hawk Jet |
33/1(+0%) | (13) Hawk Jet 33/1, Fair maiden on Flat but off 4 months and well held on her hurdling debut at Hereford in February. Needs to take a big step forward. Fair on the Flat; well beaten on hurdles debut; these conditions should suit her better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (100/1 -203%) Simply Gorgeous |
100/1(-203%) | (12) Simply Gorgeous 100/1, Fair on the Flat but only ninth in handicap at Kempton (6f) 48 days ago on her final run for Phil McEntee. Hood on for hurdling bow with others preferred. Dual 1m Flat winner; disappointing recently; not a certain stayer now going hurdling.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (150/1 -50%) Killomeroe |
150/1(-50%) | (2) Killomeroe 150/1, Pulled up in novice hurdle (33/1) at Huntingdon (15.8f, good) on NH debut 6 days ago, dropping away between 4 out and 3 out. Lots more needed. In frame in five of his six points in Ireland; pulled up on hurdling debut; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (5) (16/1 -113%) Polling Day |
16/1(-113%) | (5) Polling Day 16/1, Fairly useful Flat winner who came in thirteenth of 18 in handicap at Newbury (10f, good) 43 days ago. Much respected now going hurdling. Dual AW Flat winner; cost 30,000gns; out of form lately but an interesting jumps newcomer. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (200/1 -300%) Favorite Boy |
200/1(-300%) | (9) Favorite Boy 200/1, 9/1, last of 11 in handicap at Leicester (10f, heavy) 36 days ago. Switches to hurdles with cheekpieces on for 1st time and work to do. Has become disappointing on the Flat and was pulled up on hurdles debut (2023). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (14) (125/1 -89%) Saved Lizzie |
125/1(-89%) | (14) Saved Lizzie 125/1, Lightly-raced maiden who came in sixth of 11 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft, 250/1) 12 days ago. Needs to build on it. Hasn't shown a great deal in two bumpers or two runs over hurdles; more one for handicaps. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
An open contest sees a chance taken on BRISTOL HILL, who made a pleasing start to his career over timber when third over 2m at Huntingdon last month. Kevin Frost's charge showed signs of inexperience, racing too freely for much of the journey, but the six-year-old showed a likeable attitude running on late in the day and is expected to go well. Pleasant Man is feared most after being sent off favourite the last time he ran over hurdles, while Brave Jen also makes some appeal.
James Owen's CANNON ROCK has some useful winning Flat form to his name and comes here on the back of a good recent AW second at Kempton so is fancied to make a successful start now hurdling for his in-form yard. Pleasant Man is the form pick of those with experience and rates much the biggest threat, with Bristol Hill, Dirty Den and Natchez Trace all in the mix for minor honours.
Several have a chance in this maiden, in which the vote goes to the ex-Godolphin 4yo CANNON ROCK on his debut over hurdles.

Lady Salvador |
(7) (10/1 +17%)10/1(+17%) | (7) Lady Salvador 10/1, Showed she can make an impact from a basement mark when second of 7 on her Fontwell handicap debut/reappearance in November. Not helped by a late mistake when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle back there on return in May but she has work to do from out of the weights here. Lightly raced; best run when 2nd in 2m4f mares' handicap in December; below par last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (1) (8/13 +23%) Chatty Chich |
8/13(+23%) | (1) Chatty Chich 8/13, Well held in 3 qualifying runs in mid-winter but had displayed ability in a bumper and much more like it in handicaps, runner-up over C&D before going one place better at Huntingdon (25f, good) 24 days ago. Big player in follow-up bid from 6 lb higher mark. Improved for 3m and handicaps; good C&D second before Huntingdon win; up 6lb; good chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (15/2 -15%) Mountain Bay |
15/2(-15%) | (2) Mountain Bay 15/2, Well held in bumpers/novice maidens but shaped better than previously on third start in handicaps when staying on gradually for third over 20f here 26 days ago. Return to this longer trip could see him in an even better light if building on that here. 0-9; best for a bit in 3rd here latest (2m4f); pulled up here only run at about 3m (soft). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (13/2 +35%) Little Talks |
13/2(+35%) | (5) Little Talks 13/2, Dispelled a serious of lesser efforts in spite of the drop in trip when runner-up in mares' maiden company here (20f) on penultimate start. Not seen to best effect when midfield at Stratford (26.4f) over longest trip she's faced latest and she's not dismissed out of hand from this mark. Two fair runs here this year, notably 4th in 2m4f novice h'cap in February; 10lb lower now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (10/1 +17%) Joker Du Chenet |
10/1(+17%) | (3) Joker Du Chenet 10/1, Respectable efforts at best without success for Stuart Crawford but has run poorly both starts to date for new yard, including after wind surgery when seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, soft) 62 days ago. Good bit to prove now. Disappointing on both starts for this yard, including when back after wind op latest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (11/1 -10%) Ebendi |
11/1(-10%) | (4) Ebendi 11/1, Fairly useful Flat performer for Joseph O'Brien. Not at that level over hurdles but ran one of better races when a smooth-travelling fourth at Ayr (24.3f) in March. Heavy ground a plausible excuse at Uttoxeter since and conditions much more in his favour here. 0-10 over hurdles; improved for 3m and has a chance on his Ayr fourth two runs back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (14/1 +13%) Silver Atom |
14/1(+13%) | (6) Silver Atom 14/1, Tasted success on the Flat at Bath (11.6f) and largely run with credit over hurdles in recent months. Finished midfield on first crack at this sort of trip at Ludlow (23.8f) 3 weeks back but others look more interesting for win purposes. 1m3f Flat winner; 0-13 over hurdles; bit disappointing on first go at 3m last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Following a cosy success over 3m1f at Huntingdon last month, CHATTY CHICH appears likely to follow up that success. Dan Skelton's charge has been raised 6lb in the ratings which may not be enough to halt her progression. Despite being a well-beaten third over 2m4f at this venue last time, Mountain Bay is feared most given the handicapper has loosened his grip, while Ebendi looks set to follow them home.
CHATTY CHICH confirmed the promise of her C&D handicap debut second when running out a good winner at Huntingdon 25 days ago and, still unexposed as a stayer, she looks to hold excellent claims of following up for her leading yard. Little Talks isn't one to dismiss out of hand, and along with Ebendi, heads up the dangers.
Having improved since running over about 3m, CHATTY CHICH has a sound chance to follow up her Huntingdon win despite being 6lb higher.

Pittsburg |
(4) (10/1 +0%)10/1(+0%) | (4) Pittsburg 10/1, Dual winner over fences last summer but arrives here on the back of a couple of poor efforts so has a bit to prove now. In good form last summer; 1m3f Flat winner in March; disappointing back chasing last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (1) (10/3 -48%) Omaha Wish |
10/3(-48%) | (1) Omaha Wish 10/3, Point winner who made the frame in a trio of hurdles last term, including when third of 7 on handicap debut at Fakenham (16f). Offered something to work on sent chasing when good third at Warwick since so needs considering. Point winner in 2022; best hurdles run when 3rd over C&D; good 3rd on chase debut; chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (9/2 +0%) Ferrybridge |
9/2(+0%) | (3) Ferrybridge 9/2, A fair winning hurdler/chaser who was left clear at the last when opening his account in a handicap chase at Huntingdon (16.5f, good to soft) in March. Creditable placed efforts last 2 starts and likely to give it another good go. Huntingdon winner in March; two fair chase runs since; conditions suit; one to consider;. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (7/1 +65%) Somekindofstar |
7/1(+65%) | (2) Somekindofstar 7/1, Lost his way for Charlie Longsdon and not much promise both starts for current yard. C&D winner; good C&D 3rd over hurdles on stable debut; a lesser run over fences last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (22/1 -57%) Berlais Du George |
22/1(-57%) | (9) Berlais Du George 22/1, HInted at ability when fourth in novice on hurdles debut at Plumpton in October but gone the wrong way since, finishing well held on chase debut latest. 0-6; well-beaten last of four on chase debut at Fontwell last time; bit to prove. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (6/1 +50%) Moore Clouds |
6/1(+50%) | (5) Moore Clouds 6/1, Doubled her chase account at Sedgefield on Boxing Day. Not at best since but now 3 lb below winning mark and wasn't disgraced back over hurdles last time. Two handicap chase wins last term; not in quite such good form since but a possible. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (4/1 +50%) Go Fox |
4/1(+50%) | (8) Go Fox 4/1, Won twice over fences last summer. including this race off this mark. Respectable third here (21f) last month after 10 weeks off and bold show wouldn't surprise. On same mark as for C&D win last June (won off 7lb higher next time); good chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (17/2 -89%) Augharue |
17/2(-89%) | (6) Augharue 17/2, Came agonisingly close to breaking his duck from a tumbling mark at Sedgefield (17f, good, 10/1) 23 days ago, just failing. Enters calculations for all that he's not the most consistent. Best run for a while when close 2nd last time; chance on that form but lacks consistency. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (7) (8/1 +60%) Angel's Dream |
8/1(+60%) | (7) Angel's Dream 8/1, Has become disappointing over hurdles so easy enough to oppose on chase bow. Maiden hurdle winner last May; mainly disappointing after that; well treated; chase debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Just touched off over 2m1f at Sedgefield last time, Augharue arrives here with solid credentials, but he may be vulnerable to some better treated rivals such as GO FOX. Neil King's runner has been eased 2lb in the ratings for his third over 2m5f at this track and, with this drop in trip likely to suit, he appears capable of exploiting an attractive mark of 81. Omaha Wish and Ferrybridge are also worthy of consideration.
OMAHA WISH offered something to work on sent chasing when a good third at Warwick and gets the vote over of Moore Clouds, who's dipped below her last winning mark. Augharue only just failed at Sedgefield last month and is another to consider.
The choice is GO FOX, who ran creditably over 2m5f here last time and is back on the same mark as when winning over C&D a year ago.

Enthused |
(1) (7/2 +13%)7/2(+13%) | (1) Enthused 7/2, Thrived over hurdles for this yard last autumn. Poor display up in grade at Cheltenham 7 months ago but has a creditable Flat run behind him recently and can't be dismissed. Won five times over hurdles in 2023 and has been consistent on the Flat this spring. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (6) (5/4 +58%) King Otis |
5/4(+58%) | (6) King Otis 5/4, Has improved for this yard, scoring from 9 lb out the handicap after 4 months off over C&D earlier this month. Clear of remainder when second at Huntingdon 6 days ago and fancied to resume winning ways. Won C&D seller last month and was close second at Huntingdon on Monday; up in grade today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/2 -11%) Max Of Stars |
5/2(-11%) | (4) Max Of Stars 5/2, Took very well to hurdling in the first half of last season, winning 4 times. Brace of runner-up efforts in listed company since and latest poor showing at Cheltenham no more than a blip. Should be back on track. Free-going front-runner who did very well as a juvenile hurdler last season (four wins). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (4/1 +56%) No Recollection |
4/1(+56%) | (5) No Recollection 4/1, Modest handicap hurdler who was out of sorts when last seen in this sphere but has dropped in the weights as a result and ran creditably on the Flat recently. One to note in the market for bang in-form stable. Lost his way over hurdles last year but recent Flat form offers significant renewed hope. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (10/1 +0%) Poncho |
10/1(+0%) | (3) Poncho 10/1, Plumpton novice winner in January 2023 but has yet to make an impact in handicaps and didn't feature on Flat debut at Salisbury recently. Others make more appeal. Novice winner in early 2023 but unplaced in all four handicaps (fell twice). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (10/1 -11%) Gaelik Coast |
10/1(-11%) | (2) Gaelik Coast 10/1, Mixed record recently but wasn't disgraced last time and he's dropped in the weights, so can't be ruled out after a short break. Not the force of old but didn't run badly over 2m4f here two months ago; can't rule out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
King Otis is the one C&D winner in this field after scoring here last month and, although beaten since, he arrives at the top of his game. Enthused has to be of interest and has been in decent form on the Flat since his last start over hurdles, but preference is for MAX OF STARS. Last seen finishing seventh in a far better race at Cheltenham, she was second in a Listed race over hurdles at Doncaster in January and a repeat of that could be more than enough.
KING OTIS is on the up for James Owen and, having finished a clear second at Huntingdon on Monday, he's capable of getting back to winning ways if the race doesn't come too soon. Max of Stars is likely to bounce back from a poor run, so she's a danger if allowed an easy lead under Hughes, while market support for No Recollection would be significant.
On a track that is likely to suit her racing style, free-going front-runner MAX OF STARS is taken to record her fifth hurdling success.

Killer Clown |
(2) (9/1 +10%)9/1(+10%) | (2) Killer Clown 9/1, On a good mark based on peak form but he hasn't scored for over 2 years and ran no more than respectably when third in Chepstow handicap (19.5f) last time. Cheekpieces back on. Kept on for respectable third at Chepstow in April but is evidently not the force of old. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (6) (10/3 +5%) Riskintheground |
10/3(+5%) | (6) Riskintheground 10/3, Showed fair winning form over hurdles and ran to a similar level when making his fifth start in this sphere a winning one in Hereford handicap (20.9f, good to soft) 9 days ago. This is more competitive but he must enter calculations. Came good over fences at fifth attempt, in four-runner race at Hereford nine days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (9) (13/2 +19%) Time To Bite |
13/2(+19%) | (9) Time To Bite 13/2, Back on the up, under positive tactics, when winning 10-runner handicap chase at Newton Abbot (21f, good to firm, 8/1) 13 days ago, kept up to work. 7 lb higher and in a stronger contest here, however. Made all at Newton Abbot last month but will find it hard to dominate this stronger field. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (33/1 -175%) Tardree |
33/1(-175%) | (3) Tardree 33/1, All 6 career victories have come in small fields and he was more miss than hit (mostly over fences) last season. Plenty to prove at present. Not firing on all cylinders in early part of last season and made low-key return in April. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (9/1 +25%) Goose Man |
9/1(+25%) | (4) Goose Man 9/1, Useful chaser for Tom Taaffe who was able to defy a lay-off of fully 32 months to win selling handicap hurdle on the bridle at Huntingdon in November. Rather gone backwards since, however, well held in a Ludlow hunter chase latest. Good fourth in Newbury handicap in November but recent hunter chase form reads less well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (10/1 -43%) Ingennio |
10/1(-43%) | (8) Ingennio 10/1, Hacked up in a selling handicap here in April and followed up over C&D in decisive fashion 11 days later. Off career-high mark on debut for new yard but can't be ruled out. Signed off for Richard Hobson with two C&D wins in April; up in grade for stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (14/1 +0%) Gloire D'athon |
14/1(+0%) | (5) Gloire D'athon 14/1, Prolific early in his chasing career (winning 5 of his first 6 starts) but lost his way last season. Tumbled down the weights and hinted at a revival over a longer trip at Uttoxeter last month but percentage call is to look elsewhere. Won two valuable 2m4f handicaps last spring but has been out of form since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (9/2 +18%) My Gift To You |
9/2(+18%) | (7) My Gift To You 9/2, Immediate improvement upon joining James Owen, scoring for fifth time at Catterick (19.2f) in March and backing it up with solid placed efforts at Fontwell (19.5f) and Cartmel (21.2f). Takes on better company now but should give another good account. Five wins (one over C&D) for this yard since last summer; ran well in defeat last week. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (1) (9/4 +25%) Way Out |
9/4(+25%) | (1) Way Out 9/4, Three-time winner over hurdles who has upped his game since switched to this sphere, latest when good second of 6 in novice chase (7/1) at Warwick (20f, good) 22 days ago. Fairly treated, back handicapping, and is one for shortlist. Close second in Warwick novice last month and remains on a good mark; strong chance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Time To Bite looks likely to take them along here given those tactics were employed when he won at Newton Abbot last time, but an extra 7lb from the handicapper means another step forward is needed. Riskintheground also won last time out at Hereford and he makes a strong case off just 4lb higher, but a chance is taken on WAY OUT. Second and beaten less than a length at Warwick latest, that form behind Boombawn reads well in the context of this race.
WAY OUT should have conditions to suit and will appreciate the return to this longer trip on the back of his solid Warwick run. He gets the nod. Riskintheground and My Gift To You are feared most.
This looks good for WAY OUT (nap), who ran well in defeat in a Warwick novice three weeks ago and remains on a good mark.

1st (5) (22/1 -175%) Fine By Her |
22/1(-175%) | (5) Fine By Her 22/1, Bounced back to form when doubling tally in 10-runner handicap hurdle at Ludlow (23.8f) a year ago but no show in 2 chases after. Course winner over further. Course winner over hurdles; not seen since two non-completions over fences in the winter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/4 +56%) Star Legend |
7/4(+56%) | (3) Star Legend 7/4, C&D maiden winner who has been in reasonable form on the level. Needs a bit of improvement to defy this mark, though. C&D winner in November; back over hurdles after creditable Flat run last month; big player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 -45%) Nickelforce |
4/1(-45%) | (1) Nickelforce 4/1, Off the mark at Plumpton over this trip in January and creditable efforts over further since. Leading claims back in distance under good rider with fine record here. Consistent 5yo who has twice performed well since his breakthrough win in January. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (12/1 -140%) Beholden |
12/1(-140%) | (2) Beholden 12/1, Dual winner in 2021 but lightly raced since with a patchy profile, shaping well at Wincanton after another 8 months off, but not so good at Hereford 3 weeks ago. Others safer. Lightly raced in recent years but back from latest layoff with two decent runs this spring. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (6/1 -9%) State Of Bliss |
6/1(-9%) | (7) State Of Bliss 6/1, Won 4-runner 2m maiden hurdle at this meeting last season. Returned to form over this trip at Uttoxeter a fortnight ago after another wind op and player off 3 lb lower. Has gone the wrong way since his small-field maiden win here a year ago; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (6/1 +63%) Baby Sham |
6/1(+63%) | (9) Baby Sham 6/1, Successful twice during middle part of 2023, including over C&D, but struggled to land a telling blow since. Has dropped plenty in the weights. Won twice last spring (once over C&D) but has looked out of sorts this year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (16/1 +60%) Rafferty |
16/1(+60%) | (8) Rafferty 16/1, Fair chaser at best, winning twice in 2021/22. Lightly raced and disappointing since, though. Regressive 10yo who was badly out of form over hurdles and fences last season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (33/1 -106%) Complete Fantasy |
33/1(-106%) | (4) Complete Fantasy 33/1, Modest maiden hurdler unproven beyond 2m. Last of 2 finishers in a point 7 weeks ago and hard to fancy. 0-25 under all codes when trained in Ireland and not easy to weigh up on this stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (6) (8/1 -23%) Into The Sunset |
8/1(-23%) | (6) Into The Sunset 8/1, Dual winner in 2022. Missed 18 months and well held both starts at Newcastle this year. Back up in trip now and on a tempting mark. Safely held on last two appearances but today's much quicker ground will suit much better. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Star Legend has been running well enough on the Flat and could go well with the return to this trip expected to be in his favour after failing to see out almost 3m here in November. Baby Sham has to be considered, but INTO THE SUNSET intrigues most. Not at his best so far this year, his 2022 form gives him every chance with the step up in trip a positive.
NICKELFORCE will be well suited by the return to this trip and won't lack for assistance up top so he's a clear choice. State of Bliss is feared most ahead of Into The Sunset.
The suggestion is INTO THE SUNSET, who is well handicapped and can come back to form now he's back on good ground.
Ths is the racecard key.
