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

GISELLES IZZY only went down by a neck when stepping up to class 4 level over C&D last week, and she goes off the same mark. If the quick turnaround doesn't cause her any problems, she could be the one to beat. Gentle Ellen (third) had Mark's Choice (fifth) behind at Pontefract last time and she can confirm her superiority over that rival. Burj Malinka completes the shortlist.

BURJ MALINKA's 3 career wins have all come at this track, including when having 2 lengths to spare over this trip last week, and can defy a 5 lb penalty. Gentle Ellen and Giselles Izzy head the dangers.

Lots with chances and MARK'S CHOICE is taken to build on an encouraging debut fifth for Gemma Tutty and capitalise on a reduced mark.

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

WINGED MESSENGER (second) had Ingleby Archie (third) behind on his penultimate start at Beverley and he has put in another solid runner-up effort at Chester since. The son of Postponed looks ready to shed his maiden tag at the fourth time of asking. Star Mind showed more than enough ability on debut when third at Carlisle to suggest a race of this nature should be within reach.

WINGED MESSENGER is the pick on these terms and did well from his draw at Chester 16 days ago. He's preferred to Ingleby Archie and once-raced Star Mind.

Julie Camacho's WINGED MESSENGER was done no favours by the draw when a very good Chester second last time out and can go one better.

15:40 Hamilton Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

CLASSIC TIMES made light work of her opening mark at Sandown in a first-time hood and she should have more to come on only her fifth career start. The three-year-old filly has been hit with an 11lb hike, but she could be up to the task. Zarabanda is in great heart at the moment, as she hasn't finished outside of the first two home on each of her last three outings. Anjo Bonita is seeking her hat-trick and she should mount a bold bid after victory at York.

CLASSIC TIMES made a mockery of her opening mark when making a winning handicap debut in good style at Sandown recently. She's been hit with an 11 lb hike in the weights, but this well-bred filly remains unexposed and may well be equal to the task. The consistent Anjo Bonita took another step forward when bagging a York handicap last month and looks sure to be in the mix, while both Zarabanda and Fiver Friday arrive here in good form, too.

David O'Meara's filly ZARABANDA is on a roll and taken to quickly resume winning ways here on the back of her excellent Leicester second

MR PROFESSOR bounced back to form with an impressive victory at Goodwood last week and the four-year-old is hard to oppose on the back of that performance, despite carrying a 5lb penalty. The unexposed Botanical is an obvious threat following his promising handicap debut at Ascot a few weeks ago, while Baryshnikov edges out Cockalorum to be the pick of the remainder.

BOTANICAL would have benefited from a stronger gallop when third on his handicap bow at Ascot last month and can improve past his older rivals, including Mr Professor and Baryshnikov.

Judged on his novice form, BOTANICAL (nap) still looks nicely treated and is well worth another chance. Mr Professor is feared most

16:40 Hamilton Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

MAC AILEY was an easy three-length winner of an apprentice race over C&D a week ago and the seven-year-old clearly sets the standard without a penalty here. Dream Final has shown promise on his last couple of starts and it would be no surprise to see him go well on his handicap bow. Others to note are Retirement Beckons and Banner Road.

It's hard to look past MAC AILEY who carries no penalty for last week's comfortable C&D success. Yeeeaah and Shine On Brendan rate the principal dangers.

Preference is for ARKENSTAAR, who has a progressive record at Hamilton and returns here off an attractive mark.

EMERALDS PRIDE completed the hat-trick when just prevailing by a nose at Redcar, and she was only raised 3lb for that success. The daughter of Pride Of Dubai seems to be just doing enough in her races, which is making it difficult for the handicapper to catch up. Speedacus was victorious in this grade at Leicester recently and he ought to go close once again, while High Opinion also looks a solid contender.

The thriving EMERALDS PRIDE completed the hat-trick by the narrowest of margins at Redcar 2 weeks ago, but she came clear with the runner-up that day so can defy a 3 lb rise. Last week's Leicester winner Speedacus is feared most under a penalty ahead of One Last Hug.

Michael Dods's filly EMERALDS PRIDE hasn't looked back since refitted with cheekpieces and can defy a 3lb rise for her gutsy Redcar win

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

Jaminoz struck with ease over 1m1f around here last week and he warrants plenty of respect, with only 5lb extra to carry. However, this represents a big step up in distance, so the vote instead goes to ASK PETER, who had Ebony Maw behind when victorious by a length over C&D last time. She can go in again. Another last-time-out winner Lunacy completes the shortlist.

If in the same mood as when scoring here eight days ago, LUNACY will take plenty of stopping under a penalty. Jaminoz was also a decisive course winner on his latest start and he is a greatly respected under a penalty, too. Graces Quest is dangerous to discount off this reduced mark, while Rory The Cat was no match for Luncay here last time but he's pretty consistent on the whole and should give another good account.

Some in-form sorts on show and LUNACY, who won easily here eight days ago, can prove too strong for Ebony Maw.

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.

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.
