(1)  (11/10 -93%)Reverend Hubert |
11/10(-93%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Reverend Hubert 11/10, Fairly useful performer on the Flat and made it third time lucky over hurdles at Downpatrick (21.7f, good) last summer. Placed in stronger company both subsequent starts and will prove a tough nut to crack if ready to roll following a break. Placed in all five hurdles and this is an easier opening than at Cheltenham in October. |
|||
(3)  (13/8 +41%)Haiti Couleurs |
13/8(+41%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Haiti Couleurs 13/8, Made the frame both starts in maiden points in 2021 and positive start under Rules when runner-up in a Chepstow novice and Ludlow maiden (both at around 2½m on heavy going). Understandably struggled upped to 24.3f in Grade 2 company last time and merits respect back down in class/trip here. Two seconds on testing ground before struggling in a 3m Grade 2 the last time. |
|||
(2)  (17/2 -21%)Dasher |
17/2(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dasher 17/2, Showed plenty when placed in a pair of bumpers last season and there were positives to glean from last month's belated reappearance/hurdles debut fifth at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy). Entitled to come on for that and improvement should be forthcoming. Not far away in two bumpers before let down by his jumping in a 2m3f maiden hurdle. |
|||
(4)  (12/1 +0%)Mount Washington |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mount Washington 12/1, Out of a bumper winner and showed something to work on when third here on debut in November. Well beaten in listed company at Newbury since and looks up against it starting out over hurdles here. Ran well in a bumper here before struggling in a Listed race on heavy; retains potential. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
It is hard to oppose REVEREND HUBERT, who showed plenty of promise in 2023 and was last seen filling third place over 3m at Cheltenham in October. Haiti Couleurs struggled in Grade 2 company at Haydock on his most recent outing but is a player based on his two previous seconds. Dasher and Mount Washington both need to improve to win but the former is the pick of the pair.
Provided he is raring to go following a break, Irish raider REVEREND HUBERT should have enough in the locker to account for his three rivals. He was a creditable third to progressive novice Butch (since won a competitive handicap and finished second in Grade 2 company) upped to 3m at Cheltenham when last seen in October and this drop back in trip looks a good move. Haiti Couleurs should also benefit from dropping back in trip and he is the clear main danger ahead of Dasher.
Reverend Hubert sets the standard but a slog in the mud might not be ideal and HAITI COULEURS is a feasible alternative.

(4)  (13/8 +7%)Mumbles |
13/8(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mumbles 13/8, Gradual improver in handicaps, getting off the mark by 16 lengths at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) in January. Ran at least as well in defeat under penalty here last time and while he's effectively 4 lb higher now that his new mark has kicked in, this 6-y-o is a big player now back up in trip. Easy Chepstow winner off 11lb lower (2m3f); second over 2m here last time; the one to beat. |
|||
(1)  (2/1 +0%)Molto Bene |
2/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Molto Bene 2/1, Left the form of first 2 starts behind when third in a Warwick mares' novice with a tongue strap enlisted in January. Took another step forward when making a winning handicap debut at Plumpton (20.5f, soft) recently and, with further progress likely, this 6 lb higher mark could be within her reach. Won at Plumpton on handicap debut last time; up 6lb on more testing ground; a possible. |
|||
(2)  (3/1 -9%)I Am Spider Man |
3/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) I Am Spider Man 3/1, Pretty inconsistent on the whole and remains 10 lb above the mark off which he opened his account at Sedgefield back in October 2022. Sedgefield winner in September, but beaten favourite last British run; worth considering. |
|||
(3)  (17/2 -55%)Arlo |
17/2(-55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Arlo 17/2, Fair hurdler for Stuart Crawford and, after 18 months off, showed that he retains plenty of ability when third in a Sedgefield maiden in October. Has failed to build on that since but the handicapper has shown mercy and perhaps the first-time cheekpieces will give him a lift. 0-8 over hurdles; 4th in a 2m1f maiden last time; back up in trip with cheekpieces tried. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MOLTO BENE made a winning handicap debut over 2m4f at Plumpton last month and a 6lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop the unexposed mare from going in again. That said, Mumbles cannot be discounted following his Chepstow win two starts ago and second over 2m here last time, while the Irish raider I Am Spider Man also merits respect.
MOLTO BENE was a ready winner on her recent handicap debut at Plumpton and a 6 lb rise in the weights probably won't be enough to prevent her from following up. That said, Mumbles also appears to be going the right way and he is greatly respected, while Arlo could have a part to play if the addition of cheekpieces has the desired effect.
Although MUMBLES is 11lb higher than when winning at Chepstow he handles these conditions well and is preferred to I Am Spider Man.

(1)  (2/1 +43%)Ascending Lark |
2/1(+43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ascending Lark 2/1, Encouraging start to her career when runner-up in a Cork bumper last January. No progress in 2 subsequent starts for previous connections but it'll be interesting to see how she shapes up in the betting now switched to hurdles for her new yard. Has undergone a wind op. Placed in two Irish bumpers; interesting on jumps/stable debut having had a wind op. |
|||
(3)  (5/2 +0%)Followango |
5/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Followango 5/2, Point/bumper winner who has shown plenty in 3 starts since switched to hurdles, just touched off on her latest start in a Lingfield novice with the re-opposing Bluella Bresil hot on her heels in third. Solid claims. Easy bumper winner here; closely matched with Bluella Bresil on recent 2m3f Lingfield form. |
|||
(4)  (7/2 +0%)Largy Force |
7/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Largy Force 7/2, Fetched £85,000 after winning his sole point start in April 2022 and made a promising start under Rules when runner-up in a bumper at Catterick in December. Also found just one too good on recent hurdles debut at Hereford (16.2f, soft) and she's open to improvement. Irish point winner; runner-up on both starts over hurdles, latest at Hereford; a contender. |
|||
(2)  (5/1 -25%)Bluella Bresil |
5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bluella Bresil 5/1, Runner-up both starts in bumpers and, having reportedly lost her action on hurdles bow in November, she proved a different proposition when a close third following a wind op in a first-time tongue strap at Lingfield (19.5f, soft) last month. Needs considering. Improved since wind op, best run when third over 2m3f latest; 2m may suit better; chance. |
|||
(5)  (10/1 -150%)Dameofthecotswolds |
10/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Dameofthecotswolds 10/1, Bumper winner who looked in need of the experience when runner-up in junior event at Ludlow on her hurdles bow in December. Rather disappointing next 2 starts but seemingly back on track when third in the Victor Ludorum at Haydock and big chance here if able to reproduce that level of form. Bumper winner whose best run over hurdles was on heavy ground last time; couldn't rule out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
DAMEOFTHECOTSWOLDS chased home two useful rivals when third in a valuable event at Haydock last month and a reproduction of that level of form would give her a big chance here. Ascending Lark showed some ability in Irish bumpers and cannot be discounted on her debut for Harry Derham. All of the remainder have chances, but Followango is the pick of them.
There wasn't much between FOLLOWANGO and Bluella Bresil at Lingfield and it may again be a case of fine margins, with Evan Williams' charge taken to uphold that form and deservedly open her hurdles account. The 4-y-o Dameofthecotswolds seemed to excel herself behind a smart type at Haydock, form which gives her every chance in this company, but she shapes as though a stiffer test would be ideal. Largy Force may well build on her hurdles debut promise and Ascending Lark showed ability in bumpers.
In a trappy race the choice is BLUELLA BRESIL who was a close third over 2m3f last time and could be suited by this drop back in trip.

(5)  (6/4 -20%)Bonza Boy |
6/4(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bonza Boy 6/4, Didn't kick on from a promising start over hurdles but got back on track over fences this year, building on his Exeter second in January when registering a comfortable first success back at that venue (19.2f, heavy) 7 days ago. Big shout under a penalty. Scored by 19l at Exeter last week; chance with his penalty if this not too soon. |
|||
(1)  (2/1 +11%)Classic Maestro |
2/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Classic Maestro 2/1, Progressive over hurdles, winning handicaps at Uttoxeter/Newcastle and solid start over fences when second of 6 on handicap chase debut at Lingfield (2m) 22 days ago. Winner that day has scored since and he's proven at this longer trip. Shortlisted. In fine form this term with 2 wins over hurdles and decent 2nd on chase debut; good claims. |
|||
(3)  (9/2 -29%)Walkinthewoods |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Walkinthewoods 9/2, A fair winning hurdler who arrives in good nick over fences, again finding only one too good in 5-runner Chepstow handicap (19.5f) 3 weeks ago. Can figure again in this groove. Dual hurdle winner; runner-up over fences on last two starts; conditions suit; chance. |
|||
(4)  (15/2 +0%)Double Click |
15/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Double Click 15/2, Dual hurdles winner who took well to fitting of cheekpieces when runner-up over hurdles at Leicester (15.5f) in January but headgear didn't work so well at Lingfield the following month. Switch to chasing needs to have positive effect with cheekpieces again enlisted. Two wins over hurdles last term; mainly below form this time; bit to prove on chase debut. |
|||
(2)  (22/1 +33%)Jack In The Box |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Jack In The Box 22/1, Fairly useful form over hurdles and similar form over fences for Gordon Elliott but offered little in trio of starts over both sets of obstacles for new yard to date. Mark in freefall but can only be watched until showing more. Maiden hurdle winner for Gordon Elliott; modest efforts for new yard; others stronger. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
BONZA BOY is turned out under a 7lb penalty following his 19-length rout at Exeter last Friday and it looks a shrewd move given he's 3lb well-in compared to future handicaps. Classic Maestro is expected to step forward from his chasing bow when runner-up at Lingfield, while the recent form of Walkinthewoods entitles him to a place on the shortlist.
CLASSIC MAESTRO and Bonza Boy arrive here firmly at the top of their game and look the pair to focus on. The former, who bumped into one patently ahead of its mark at Lingfield 3 weeks ago, is narrowly selected to come out on top. Walkinthewoods rates best of the others.
The choice is CLASSIC MAESTRO who has done really well since joining Jennie Candlish. Walkinthewoods is another with a chance.

(1)  (4/9 -52%)Major Fortune |
4/9(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Major Fortune 4/9, Proved a different proposition since he was upped in trip this term, completing a 5-timer with something in hand at Lingfield (heavy) 10 days ago. Saddles a 7 lb penalty but looks the one to beat nonetheless. Made it five wins on the trot at Lingfield last week; 7lb penalty; will be hard to beat. |
|||
(3)  (6/1 -20%)Lelant |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Lelant 6/1, Arrives in good form in handicaps, fourth of 16 at Taunton (19f, good to soft) 38 days ago. Up in trip and not discounted in his bid for a maiden victory. Creditable runs on last three starts; first run at this trip; heavy going a concern. |
|||
(2)  (7/1 +13%)Maximum Effort |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Maximum Effort 7/1, Lightly-raced maiden who took a step forward when third of 7 in novice hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, heavy) 20 days ago. Up in trip now handicapping. Possibilities. Unexposed; fair third in a 2m3f maiden last time; up in trip; interesting on h'cap debut. |
|||
(4)  (17/2 +58%)Monbari |
17/2(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Monbari 17/2, Runner-up in a bumper on his debut but he hasn't gone on over hurdles, pulled up on his handicap debut over C&D (heavy) 43 days ago. Cheekpieces go on for the time. Bumper second; fair form over hurdles, but pulled up over C&D latest; headgear now tried. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MAJOR FORTUNE might still be ahead of the handicapper following his fifth victory in a row at Lingfield earlier in the month, and the penalty gained for that success is negated by Ben Sutton's 7lb allowance. It would be surprising if Dan Skelton's charge were unable to continue his winning sequence. Maximum Effort is likely to benefit from stepping up to 3m based on his third at Chepstow and is respected along with Lelant.
MAJOR FORTUNE hasn't looked back since getting a test of stamina and a 7 lb penalty for his most recent Lingfield success shouldn't stop him getting the 6-timer up. In-form maiden Lelant appeals as the one to chase him home ahead of handicap debutant Maximum Effort.
As MAJOR FORTUNE didn't have a hard race when winning easily at Lingfield last week he will be hard to beat with his penalty.

(6)  (7/4 +0%)Desert Fortune |
7/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Desert Fortune 7/4, Didn't offer much over hurdles for Christian Williams but this points winner fared much better on yard/chasing debut when second of 5 in handicap at Leicester (20.1f, heavy) 17 days ago. More to offer over this longer trip. Big player. Winning pointer; ordinary form over hurdles; decent second on chase debut; better expected. |
|||
(5)  (5/2 +17%)Rouge De L'quest |
5/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rouge De L'quest 5/2, Winning pointer but below expectations in 3 chase starts this season, again not seeing his race out when fourth of 13 at Chepstow (23.6f) last time. However, it still remains early days for him in this sphere and tongue strap is applied. No forlorn hope. Point winner; fourth at Chepstow last time (form sound); good chance off 3lb lower mark. |
|||
(2)  (5/1 +0%)Breizh Alko |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Breizh Alko 5/1, Veteran who had cheekpieces refitted when posting a good third of 4 in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield 21 days ago. Not discounted reverted to chasing. Veteran; 2 chase wins in 2022; fair form over hurdles in 2024; could go well back chasing. |
|||
(1)  (13/2 -44%)Danilo D'airy |
13/2(-44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Danilo D'airy 13/2, Won first 3 starts in handicap chases but went the wrong way subsequently and pulled up in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) 48 days ago. Unreliable. Hat-trick of wins in 2021; hard to fancy having completed the course only once since then. |
|||
(4)  (14/1 +30%)Light Flicker |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Light Flicker 14/1, Encouraging effort when seventh of 19 in a Cheltenham handicap on his reappearance but there have not been any real positives to glean from his 4 subsequent starts. Six chase wins, the latest in April 2022; out of form recently, but these conditions suit. |
|||
(7)  (18/1 -50%)Layerthorpe |
18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Layerthorpe 18/1, Landed a hat-trick in staying handicap hurdles back in 2019 and ran to a similar level on his second start over fences when runner-up at Taunton (23f) in December 2022. However, not in the same form at Hereford 4 months later and has been off again since. Won a 3m hurdle on soft; runner-up on second chase start; back after a 344-day break. |
|||
(3)  (22/1 -120%)Honey I'm Good |
22/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Honey I'm Good 22/1, Notched 3 chase wins last spring/summer but form has nosedived, cheekpieces on when only sixth of 7 in handicap chase at Musselburgh (23.6f, soft) 26 days ago. Hard to warm to. Three chase wins; not been in the best of form recently; conditions suit and down in grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
DESERT FORTUNE returned from 11 months off the track to fill the runner-up spot on her chasing/stable debut at Leicester last month. She is entitled to progress from that display and her finishing effort suggests the extra half mile on this occasion should play to her strengths. Rouge De L'quest sports a tongue-tie for the first time which may yield a change in fortune, with Breizh Alko and Danilo D'Airy others capable of going well.
DESERT FORTUNE made a promising start for Venetia Williams when runner-up at Leicester and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to go one better off the same mark here. Veteran Breizh Alko needs considering back in this sphere after a good recent hurdling effort at Sedgefield, while the far less exposed Rouge de L'Quest could also have a say in the battle for runner-up spot.
This can go to winning pointer ROUGE DE L'QUEST (nap), who has yet to score under rules but was fourth in a strong race last time.

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.
