14:15 Hamilton Maiden (Class 5) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Runner-up in a more competitive novice event at Leicester at the end of May, SIMPLY BLUE is very hard to oppose given that run sets a high standard as the winner was thought good enough to subsequently contest the Norfolk at Royal Ascot. Heading the list of dangers is Cape Sovereign and Kevn Ryan's representative should be seriously considered if supported in the betting. Stablemates Urban Sky and Sealine are others to monitor closely too.

SIMPLY BLUE stepped up on his debut when just failing at Leicester and sets a decent standard. Cape Sovereign makes the most appeal of the newcomers before market clues.

The standard is set by SIMPLY BLUE who could well have more to offer. Corpus Juris can chase him home.

14:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

INDIVIDUALISM has contested deeper races than this and, with the trip and forecast ground ideal, he looks worth chancing on his first start back after being gelded. Untried over this trip but a potential improver, Jonny Concrete also drops back down in class and is feared after a respectable third-placed finish over 7f at Haydock last month. Miaswell won over a mile at that same venue when last seen and enters calculations off 6lb higher. Recent C&D winner Rose Branch has the same burden but looks vulnerable this time.

MIASWELL was much improved when making a successful handicap debut at Haydock and there is probably more to come from him now, so he can defy a 6 lb rise. Rose Branch, a winner here on her return a fortnight ago, could progress further also and is feared most ahead of Mysteryofthesands.

A trappy race can fall to MIASWELL, unexposed and a game winner on his handicap debut. Rose Branch is feared most.

15:15 Hamilton Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Pisanello returned to form in a competitive handicap at York last month and could go well despite being burdened with a 4lb higher mark, while Repertoire and Aragon Castle both score highly for reliability and have to enter calculations. However, preference is for JAMES MCHENRY, whose best form has arguably been posted when encountering a stiff finish and the topweight can cement his authority in this company.

There is a bigger performance coming from LONDONER from his much-reduced mark and he's worth chancing for his local trainer, who cleaned up here on Thursday. York-winner Pisanello and Aragon Castle are a couple of the other likely players.

The class-dropping Dutch Decoy can revive but PISANELLO, a dual C&D winner last year, is preferred after his York win last month.

15:45 Hamilton Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

The key to this race looks to be last month's clash over C&D between Jordan Electrics (first) and WINTER CROWN (second), with preference for the latter on this occasion. Julie Camacho's charge is 7lb better off for a half-length defeat and can gain a first success since this time last year. Narrowly denied at Ayr last time out, Sacred Falls is another to consider, as well as Catterick scorer Animate.

SACRED FALLS was beaten narrowly after finding herself on the back foot right away at Ayr and is worth chancing to go one better. Jordan Electrics and old rival Winter Crown can go well again,

Competitive fare but a 2lb rise for a recent Catterick win may underestimate ANIMATE (nap). Sacred Falls can chase him home.

16:15 Hamilton Handicap (Class 4) 12f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Runner-up on both starts here this season, VICTORY SHOUT is much better than what he showed at Thirsk last time out, and this appeals as an ideal opportunity to get back to winning ways. Dunstan was ahead of the selection when last seen and can improve on that first run for the Tom Dascombe team, while Percy Shelley should find this grade much easier for his shrewd connections.

PERCY SHELLEY didn't seem to take to Epsom again last time and had previously shaped well at York so could be worth chancing dropped in class here. Quantum Leap could be the danger first time back if breaking on terms.

This looks tight, but in part due to none of the runners presenting a convincing case. WICKYWICKYWHEELS is selected.

16:52 Hamilton Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

LADY BOUQUET scored in dominant fashion at Beverley in an apprentice handicap a week ago and the booking of William Buick is a major plus on this occasion. John Kirkup can give her the most to think about on the drop in trip, having run with credit of late over further, while Tees Douge shaped with encouragement when fourth at Doncaster last month.

Not a strong-looking race and LADY BOUQUET can follow up last week's Beverley success. John Kirkup is the danger.

Hardy Angel should go well but this is a drop in grade for SOUND OF IONA and she can exploit her lowly mark.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
