1st (8)  (3/1 +54%)Hiero Sport |
3/1(+54%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hiero Sport 3/1, Runner-up in a bumper but has yet to better modest form over hurdles, including on Southwell handicap debut when last seen in May. Unexposed after only four hurdle starts and shaped quite well on handicap debut in May. |
|||
2nd (6)  (9/1 -38%)Mersey Street |
9/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mersey Street 9/1, Is falling in the weights and ran one of his best races when fourth of 9 over 2½m at Uttoxeter when last seen in July. 0-7 over hurdles but travelled well for a long way when fourth at Uttoxeter in July. |
|||
3rd (3)  (12/1 +0%)Galway Reel |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Galway Reel 12/1, Has not inherited the family's lofty level of ability judged on early evidence, finishing no better than sixth in his first 3 handicaps. First-time cheekpieces need to spark improvement. Well beaten over 3m this month; now drops back in trip with cheekpieces added. |
|||
4th (1)  (22/1 -175%)Montys Soldier |
22/1(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Montys Soldier 22/1, Well held in 3 maiden/novice hurdles earlier in the year but it wouldn't be a shock were this 6-y-o to prove a different proposition in handicaps. One to note in the betting. Impressed on Irish point debut in 2023; makes handicap debut with considerable potential. |
|||
5th (9)  (10/3 +83%)Cave Article |
10/3(+83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Cave Article 10/3, Runner-up completed start in points so, while he's yet to show anything over hurdles, he's worth monitoring in the betting upped in trip for handicap debut after 7 months off. Came second in a point a year ago and has a lowly mark for this handicap debut; a possible. |
|||
6th (5)  (13/2 -30%)Footloose Man |
13/2(-30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Footloose Man 13/2, Left previous hurdling efforts behind when opening his account in a 9-runner conditional jockeys' at Fontwell in August. In the frame on all 3 outings since. In the frame three times since 6l Fontwell win in August; ought to be in the mix again. |
|||
7th (10)  (22/1 -144%)Go Fox |
22/1(-144%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Go Fox 22/1, Won twice over fences in summer 2023. Hasn't reproduced that level since but he was second in a 2m course hurdle off 12 lb higher last winter and has to enter the reckoning off this career-low mark back from a 108-day break. Course winner over fences; out of form when last seen in summer; now back over hurdles. |
|||
8th (7)  (33/1 +0%)Tip Top Tonto |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Tip Top Tonto 33/1, A fair C&D hurdle winner at his best but he offered little in 2 runs for the Flint stable for the summer and fared no better on his recent first outing for Alison Thorpe. C&D winner in April but badly out of form for two different stables since. |
|||
|U| (2)  (10/3 -33%)Laser Focus |
10/3(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Laser Focus 10/3, Yet to score over hurdles but has shaped with encouragement on both starts in this sphere for his current yard and has continued the good work on the Flat since, so looks a big player. Good fourth of 15 at Newton Abbot in August and has won on the Flat since; major player. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (66/1 -450%)Seahouses |
66/1(-450%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Seahouses 66/1, No impact in 3 hurdles last winter. His fair level of ability on the Flat provides some hope on his handicap hurdle debut but he is temperamental. Did not show much in juvenile hurdles last season; off since modest Flat run in March. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Not the strongest of contests and it might pay to side with TIP TOP TONTO. The son of Milan lost his way after bolting up over C&D in April, but he's now 1lb below that mark and will appreciate a return to this intermediate trip. The unexposed Hiero Sport showed some promise on his handicap bow in May. He could have a say following a 161-day absence, along with Footloose Man, who finished a creditable third at Fontwell last Wednesday.
LASER FOCUS has gone in again on the Flat since last seen over hurdles and it's surely only a matter of time before James Owen gets a win out of him in this sphere. Go Fox should be up to doing something off such a low mark and is next on the list. Christian Williams handicap newcomers Montys Soldier and Cave Article need keeping a close eye on in the betting.
The suggestion is FOOTLOOSE MAN, who has remained in good form since his breakthrough win in August.

1st (4)  (11/4 +0%)Telepathique |
11/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Telepathique 11/4, Confirmed debut promise when landing a 12-runner Warwick bumper in February. Runner-up on hurdles debut at Newbury before going one better at Southwell when last seen 11 months ago. Respected now chasing with her yard boasting a fine record here. Bumper/novice hurdle winner; plenty to prove on return from a break on chase debut. |
|||
2nd (3)  (11/4 +39%)Gazette Bourgeoise |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Gazette Bourgeoise 11/4, Yet to score in 10 starts over fences but probably should have won when beaten only a nose on return from 8 months off at Ffos Las (21.5f) in December. Ran no sort of race when last seen at Hereford in May but on a handy mark if bouncing back. 0-10 over fences; best run last term was after a break; interesting after 176 days off. |
|||
3rd (6)  (5/1 0%)Honey I'm Good |
5/1(0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Honey I'm Good 5/1, Resumed winning ways at Stratford in August and backed it up with a good second at Newton Abbot. Not disgraced back over hurdles since and needs considering back in this sphere. Thorough stayer who won a 3m3f chase at Stratford in August; not sure 2m5f here will suit. |
|||
4th (5)  (5/1 +0%)Phone Home |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Phone Home 5/1, Telescope filly who matched previous best over hurdles when runner-up in mares' maiden at Catterick (15.7f) in January. Below that level next 2 starts and the betting can prove a useful guide on handicap chase debut following 7 months off/wind surgery. Goes well fresh; interesting after 224 days off on chase debut having had a wind op. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (3/1 +25%)Jeune Belle |
3/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Jeune Belle 3/1, Useful bumper winner who landed short odds on her 2m Lingfield hurdle debut in December. Pulled up next 2 starts but back on track when third in a Kempton novice (2m) on final start in March. Interesting newcomer to chasing (yard 4-15 with 3 seconds at track last season). Bumper/novice hurdle winner last term; ground suits but stamina to prove; chase debut. |
|||
|PU| (2)  (11/1 -10%)Fortunefavorsdbold |
11/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fortunefavorsdbold 11/1, Fair winning hurdler in Ireland and left previous form for this yard well behind with a brace of handicap chase wins at Huntingdon/Lingfield. Went off the boil after but took step back in the right direction when fourth at Ffos Las on return. On a good mark if building on that. Two wins over fences with headgear last term; no headgear here or last time; track a worry. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Lucy Wadham does well around here and she has two chances with Telepathique and JEUNE BELLE, of which the latter is preferred. Useful in bumpers, the mare lacked consistency over hurdles last season. Notably, perhaps, her two worst performances came on soft ground, so this quicker surface is likely to suit. Her half-sister has achieved a peak rating of 122 over fences too, so it would come as no surprise were a mark of 108 lenient. Honey I'm Good is another to consider.
A difficult race to call but there's no doubt that FORTUNEFAVORSDBOLD and Gazette Bourgeoise are both lurking on dangerous marks, with the former shading the vote.
The vote goes to the experienced chaser GAZETTE BOURGEOISE who goes particularly well fresh. Jeune Belle is also interesting.

1st (1)  (2/9 +44%)Opec |
2/9(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Opec 2/9, Has left her Flat form behind since switched to hurdling, falling with the race at her mercy first time out and quickly making amends at Wetherby a fortnight ago. Should go in again. Won comfortably at Wetherby a fortnight ago and has very obvious claims here. |
|||
2nd (4)  (7/2 -17%)Window Of Time |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Window Of Time 7/2, Fair maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien. Bettered her hurdling debut when third at Ludlow three weeks ago but needs to up her game again if she's to trouble Opec. Well beaten on last month's hurdling debut but her subsequent Ludlow third was much better. |
|||
3rd (3)  (40/1 -60%)Serendipitous Lady |
40/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Serendipitous Lady 40/1, Modest handicapper on the Flat who was below form on debut for this yard at Kempton last time. Hard to make a case for on first go at hurdling. Low-grade nursery winner last autumn but her recent stable debut was very disappointing. |
|||
4th (2)  (50/1 -52%)By Farhh The Best |
50/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) By Farhh The Best 50/1, Only achieved a low level of form on the Flat for Kevin Philippart De Foy, so will have to up her game markedly if she's to compete on hurdling debut. Beaten about 20l in basement-grade classified race on latest of six Flat starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Well clear when coming to grief two from home at Market Rasen in June, OPEC was able to make amends when returning at Wetherby a fortnight ago. James Owen's filly must concede 7lb to her rivals, but she has scope for further improvement and is the one to beat. Window Of Time offered encouragement when third at Ludlow three weeks ago and she might be the main danger. Of the remainder, By Farhh The Best appeals most.
OPEC was impressive in opening her account at the second attempt over hurdles and should have little issue following up in a weak race. Window of Time is the likely candidate to capitalise if the selection underperforms.
It's hard to oppose OPEC, who won a better race than this comfortably a fortnight ago.

1st (5)  (7/1 +22%)Lunar Contact |
7/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lunar Contact 7/1, Fair form over hurdles for Alan King in 2022/23. Yet to fire for this yard but showed some aptitude for chasing when fourth at Plumpton last time. Should build on that with cheekpieces fitted. Winning pointer (latest over C&D); fair run on chase debut; well treated; bit to prove. |
|||
2nd (7)  (11/2 +21%)Illogical Logic |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Illogical Logic 11/2, Lightly-raced maiden who has yet to make an impact in handicaps, including over fences. Mark is edging down, though, and he's worth a market check. Maiden hurdler; well beaten in three handicaps over fences; improvement needed. |
|||
3rd (4)  (1/1 -10%)Instant Gambler |
1/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Instant Gambler 1/1, Has proved a revelation since switched over the larger obstacles and completed a four-timer with ease at Fontwell last week. Should take all the beating again. 4-4 over fences; latest win at Fontwell last week; has a 7lb penalty; should go well again. |
|||
4th (3)  (9/2 +18%)Awesome Foursome |
9/2(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Awesome Foursome 9/2, Bumper/hurdles winner who again ran creditably when runner-up at Ludlow (21.2f) in May. Not in same form at Market Rasen a month later but can't be ruled out now chasing with his yard going great guns. Bumper winner; only hurdles win was over 2m4f on heavy; interesting on chase debut. |
|||
5th (2)  (14/1 -56%)Up For Appeal |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Up For Appeal 14/1, Got off the mark over fences at Newton Abbot in June but operating below best more recently, struggling some way out when pulled up at Worcester (20f) in August. Bit to prove now. In fair form chasing this summer (2m5f win in June); pulled up last time; could go well. |
|||
6th (6)  (16/1 +20%)Henry Box Brown |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Henry Box Brown 16/1, Has returned to chasing this season and gained a first success over fences when staying on to lead close home in a Worcester handicap (20f, good) in August. Failed to back it up at Hereford, though, and others are more appealing. 2m4f Worcester winner in August; well beaten last time; 3m should suit; could go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
INSTANT GAMBLER has simply got better and better with experience in this sphere and while has more to do under a 7lb penalty for the latest of his four consecutive victories over fences, this level is unlikely to put him far out of his comfort zone and further success could be imminent. Awesome Foursome is feared most with his yard in excellent form, although Up For Appeal and Henry Box Brown are unexposed at the trip and could also make this interesting.
INSTANT GAMBLER has thrived over fences and looked well ahead of the handicapper again when easing clear to complete the four-timer at Fontwell last week. Awesome Foursome is an interesting chasing debutant and Lunar Contact isn't without hope.
The progressive INSTANT GAMBLER (nap) can make it five out of five over fences despite his 7lb penalty for last week's Fontwell win.

1st (2)  (9/4 +0%)Miami Magic |
9/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Miami Magic 9/4, Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart chaser Pobbles Bay and fairly useful hurdler/chaser Oxwich Bay. Off mark in points at third attempt and came within head of making a winning bumper debut at Aintree in May. One to consider hurdling for new yard. Point winner; went close in Aintree bumper in May; has a big role to play here. |
|||
2nd (3)  (7/2 +0%)Authentic Legacy |
7/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Authentic Legacy 7/2, Fair in bumpers and ran to a similar level sent hurdling when second at Chepstow (2m) in April. In the right hands to progress this term. Not beaten far in two good-quality bumpers before very respectable second on hurdle debut. |
|||
3rd (1)  (5/6 +100%)Jubilant |
5/6(+100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Jubilant 5/6, £40,000 Irish point recruit who built on a promising Rules debut to open his account in bumper at Huntingdon in April. Matched that form when second under a penalty at Fontwell a month later and he's a pretty useful hurdles prospect for in-form stable. Looked very promising in bumpers in the spring; ought to be hard to beat on hurdle debut. |
|||
4th (4)  (50/1 -100%)Kap De Triomphe |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kap De Triomphe 50/1, Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in bumper at Naas in February. Changed hands for £55,000 subsequently but sent off a big price and looked in need of the run on recent hurdles debut. Irish bumper winner in February but well down the field on recent stable/hurdle debut. |
|||
|F| (5)  (200/1 -100%)Prophet Squeeze |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Prophet Squeeze 200/1, Fifth both completed starts in Irish points but very low-key start over hurdles. A well-beaten outsider on her first two hurdling starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
JUBILANT has a big frame to fill and although a shade disappointing when run out of things in a bumper at Fontwell when last seen, he could be a different proposition on his hurdles debut having been given time to mature. Miami Magic has a similar profile and looks an obvious threat based on a promising Rules debut in a NH Flat race at Aintree in May. Authentic Legacy showed some promise on his only previous start over timber and is capable of a decent showing.
JUBILANT ran to a pretty high level in bumpers and returning for a yard in excellent order, he's taken to make a winning hurdles debut at the expense of Authentic Legacy and Miami Magic.
Impressive when beating a next-time-out winner by a wide margin in a bumper last season, JUBILANT can make a winning hurdle debut.

1st (6)  (22/1 -57%)River Gold |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) River Gold 22/1, Won a claiming hurdle in France last summer. Struggled in 4 outings for Nicky Henderson and fared no better starting out for this yard at Plumpton 9 days ago. Best watched now chasing. 3yo hurdle winner in France; mainly disappointing since; may fare better on chase debut. |
|||
2nd (3)  (15/8 +25%)Nevendon |
15/8(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Nevendon 15/8, A fair 2m hurdle winner and getting the hang of things over fences now, off the mark at Southwell earlier this month. Ran well back on the Flat 9 days ago and remains of interest back in this sphere. Won over fences at Southwell this month (2nd won since); good Flat run latest; a possible. |
|||
3rd (1)  (11/4 0%)Grain D'oudairies |
11/4(0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Grain D'oudairies 11/4, Scored at Market Rasen in March and has held his form well when third in 3 outings since. In the mix. Two wins last term, the second over fences off 7lb lower after a break; likely candidate. |
|||
4th (4)  (10/3 +44%)Jolyjump |
10/3(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jolyjump 10/3, Proved a different proposition on handicap hurdle debut after 12 weeks off as he landed Taunton contest in April. Found only a fellow improver too good upped to 20f here following month and might have found next run coming too soon. Interesting chase debutant. Won 16-runner 2m h'cap hurdle in April; fair run next time; interesting on chase debut. |
|||
5th (5)  (10/1 +29%)Delpotro |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Delpotro 10/1, Successful 2 out of his 3 starts over fences at Nort-sur-Erdre this summer. Since claimed from Gabriel Leenders for €9,106 but she was too free on her yard debut at Worcester last month. Worth another chance with tongue strap re-fitted. Strong puller; won 2 claiming chases in France; well beaten on British debut; no hood here. |
|||
|PU| (2)  (9/1 -300%)Fever Dream |
9/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fever Dream 9/1, Winner over hurdles at Perth in June and shaped well in defeat both starts since. Looks a chasing type, though starts out over much shorter trip than ideal. 3m h'cap hurdle win in June (2nd over 2m4f here previous start); chase debut; 2m a concern. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
NEVENDON travelled with real verve when landing a first chase success at Southwell 27 days ago and showed that he is still in good heart when a close-up second on the all-weather since. A 5lb higher mark in this sphere looks more than fair and the seven-year-old ticks plenty of the right boxes having previously performed well at this venue over hurdles. Chase debutant Fever Dream boasts a pointing background and he's feared most, ahead of Grain D'oudairies.
NEVENDON is getting the of things over fences now, beating a subsequent winner when off the mark at Southwell, and shades the vote over progressive hurdler Fever Dream, who may find this trip shorter than ideal on chase bow.
With a strong pace likely it could pay to side with the experienced GRAIN D'OUDAIRIES who won by a wide margin in March after a break.

(8)  (6/1 0%)Rocky's Glory |
6/1(0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Rocky's Glory 6/1, Too keen for own good when seventh of 14 in novice hurdle at Newton Abbot (18.5f, good) 69 days ago. First-time hood looks a good move on handicap debut and is worth a second look in the market. Strong puller; modest form over hurdles; may settle better with a hood now tried. |
|||
1st (1)  (7/2 -27%)Mavis Pike |
7/2(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Mavis Pike 7/2, Having just her third start over hurdles when respectable fifth of 9 in novice at Exeter (16.7f, good, 85/40) 20 days ago and could have more to offer on switch to handicapping. Fair form, best run when 3rd in a novice; not particularly well treated on h'cap debut. |
|||
2nd (3)  (14/1 +13%)Dreams Fled Away |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Dreams Fled Away 14/1, Showed a bit more than previously over hurdles when fifth of 13 in novice at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) 24 days ago. May do better on handicap debut but opening mark could have been kinder. Dual 1m4f AW Flat winner; decent 5th in maiden hurdle latest; interesting on h'cap debut. |
|||
3rd (4)  (12/1 -50%)Ugo Bingo |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ugo Bingo 12/1, Fair form when winning sole Flat start in France and looks to have been brought along gradually in this sphere. Worth monitoring in market on handicap bow. 1m4f Flat winner in France; modest form over hurdles; improvement needed on h'cap debut. |
|||
4th (7)  (18/1 -29%)Simply Gorgeous |
18/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Simply Gorgeous 18/1, Fair at best on Flat but has offered little on both her completed starts over hurdles. Makes limited appeal on switch to handicapping. Two wins over 1m on the Flat; modest efforts over hurdles; may improve now handicapping. |
|||
5th (6)  (1/1 +47%)Catboy |
1/1(+47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Catboy 1/1, Off the mark at Fontwell (17.7f) last month and improved again when second of 15 in handicap hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Leading contender. Has improved with cheekpieces; this sharp 2m is a concern but he's worth considering. |

11/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Secret Sauce 11/1, Yet to score over hurdles and ran poorly when last seen in this sphere at Worcester in July. Likely best watched after wind operation. 1m Flat winner; on a good mark; chance now back with Tony Charlton having had a wind op. |

7th (2)  (40/1 -186%)Stopnsearch |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Stopnsearch 40/1, Fair performer on Flat (stays 1½m) but has failed to trouble the judge all 3 starts in this sphere to date. Goes handicapping now. Four-time Flat winner at up to 1m2f; fair form over hurdles but yet to prove he stays 2m.. |

8th (9)  (6/1 +82%)Blitz Spirit |
6/1(+82%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Blitz Spirit 6/1, Fair performer on the Flat in France but she has yet to make a meaningful impact in this sphere and hasn't been seen for 15 months. Hard to recommend on return for new yard. Ex-Alexandra Dunn; fair form in 2022; poor last year; plenty to prove after 456-day break. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CATBOY lost little in defeat when finding only a rejuvenated rival too strong in a competitive 15-runner affair at Exeter last week. Christian Williams' charge races off an unchanged mark and he appears the one to beat on this quick turnaround. Mavis Pike has performed with credit in novice/maiden company and she enters handicaps off what looks a workable rating. The five-year-old may serve the most resistance to the selection, with Rocky's Glory making most appeal of the remainder.
CATBOY has looked a different proposition since tried in headgear and can register his second success. Mavis Pike and Ugo Bingo may provide the chief threat.
A modest race can go to SECRET SAUCE who is back with Tony Charlton and is well handicapped on his best form for him earlier this year.

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.
