1st (7)  (4/1 +50%)Night Bear |
4/1(+50%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Night Bear 4/1, Temperamental sort. Twelve runs since last win in 2020. Below-form fourth of 5 in handicap at Leicester (1½m, good to soft, 9/1) 14 days ago. Blinkers back on. Others are more persuasive. | |||
2nd (2)  (2.5/1 +44%)Billy Roberts |
2.5/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Billy Roberts 2.5/1, Fourth win since last autumn when seeing off 7 rivals at Ripon in May. Arrives on the back of creditable runner-up efforts at Beverley and Pontefract. No reason why he won't give his running again. | |||
3rd (4)  (16/1 +20%)Busby |
16/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Busby 16/1, Three AW wins over the winter. Also close went close on turf at Ayr in April but his 3 efforts since then have been disappointing. Bounce back needed. | |||
4th (6)  (5/1 -11%)Persuasive Powers |
5/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Persuasive Powers 5/1, Creditable efforts from the front over 1¼m at Bath on first 2 starts this year. Not so good over 1m there latest but capable off this mark if back to her best. | |||
5th (1)  (12/1 -33%)Headingley |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Headingley 12/1, Has largely struggled since his second at Wolverhampton in February. Easy to put a line though latest Chester run (pulled up due to rider injury) but others are still preferred. | |||
6th (3)  (2/1 +0%)Dogged |
2/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Dogged 2/1, Losing run stretches back to 2019 but he has held his form reasonably well since joining this yard, finishing 4 lengths second over C&D on latest start 7 weeks ago. |

28/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) There's The Door 28/1, Modest form when sixth in novice events at Newbury and this C&D. | |||
2nd (5)  (0.73/1 +55%)Lord Uhtred |
0.73/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Lord Uhtred 0.73/1, 200,000 gns yearling, €520,000 2-y-o. Dam sister to high-class sprinter Mecca's Angel. 10/3, shaped well despite proving very green when third of 8 in novice at Yarmouth (6f, good to soft) on debut 16 days ago. Sure to progress and bold bid expected. | |||
3rd (1)  (1.88/1 -88%)Killybegs Warrior |
1.88/1(-88%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Killybegs Warrior 1.88/1, 100,000 gns foal, €50,000 yearling. Half-brother to several winners, including useful Ventura Knight. 4/1, won 5-runner maiden at Newmarket (7f, good to firm) on debut 29 days ago, staying on well. Penalised but looks a useful prospect. | |||
4th (2)  (12/1 +0%)Hernan Cortes |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Hernan Cortes 12/1, Took a small step forward from debut when third of 11 in novice event at Newcastle (6f) 23 days ago, again slowly away and shaping as though an extra furlong will suit. Remains with potential. | |||
5th (3)  (22/1 -83%)In The Storm |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) In The Storm 22/1, Ran green when fourth of 9 in novice at Chelmsford City (7f, 9/1) first time up. Seemed unsuited by the track at Epsom next time so worth another chance to confirm debut promise. | |||
6th (4)  (25/1 -14%)Leap Year Lad |
25/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Leap Year Lad 25/1, 22,000 gns foal, £45,000 yearling, Havana Grey colt. Half-brother to several winners, including 2-y-o 7f winner November Tale. Ran to only a modest level when sixth of 8 in C&D novice on debut 38 days ago. Plenty to find on form. |

0.8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Spangled Mac 0.8/1, Unpenalised for Kempton win and ridden differently, he duly landed the odds in 3-runner contest at Yarmouth on Wednesday. Penalty this time but has to demand respect in hat-trick bid. | |||
2nd (3)  (14/1 +30%)Sweet Mist |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sweet Mist 14/1, Nursery winner at Newcastle in December but yet to fire in a trio of starts this year. | |||

6.5/1(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kingofhell 6.5/1, Made first start over 7f a winning one at Lingfield in May. Taken off his feet over 6f at Nottingham a fortnight ago so return to this trip a good move. | |||
4th (2)  (2/1 -23%)Alethiometer |
2/1(-23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Alethiometer 2/1, Placed on her first 3 starts this year and showed a willing attitude when off the mark at Doncaster a fortnight ago. 3 lb rise could be lenient. |

1st (1)  (3.33/1 -33%)Amor De Mi Vida |
3.33/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Amor De Mi Vida 3.33/1, Not the easiest to predict but she's in fine form, successful in extended 5f Yarmouth handicap and running well back there 10 days ago. Won and was third in 2 runs over C&D last season so must be respected. | |||
2nd (6)  (7.5/1 -7%)No Guts No Glory |
7.5/1(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) No Guts No Glory 7.5/1, Made a promising start earlier in the year, not seen to best effect from where she was placed and appearing to still have something to learn at Thirsk (6f) in April. Has had a wind op ahead of this handicap debut. Interesting. | |||
3rd (4)  (7.5/1 +6%)Time Shadow |
7.5/1(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Time Shadow 7.5/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in April. Back to form at Musselburgh then poorly placed at Redcar 4 weeks ago. Hood goes on as she takes on older horses for the first time now. | |||
4th (3)  (4.5/1 +44%)Russellinthebushes |
4.5/1(+44%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Russellinthebushes 4.5/1, Won at Chester in September and has a squeak on a couple of her runs this year now taking on her elders. | |||
5th (5)  (4.5/1 -29%)Boudica Bay |
4.5/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Boudica Bay 4.5/1, Took this last year and back to winning ways of late, scoring again over C&D 16 days ago. Young rider on then can claim 7 lb this time and her claims are obvious. | |||
6th (2)  (2.5/1 +29%)Second Collection |
2.5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Second Collection 2.5/1, Dual winner last season and fair runs at Chester the last twice, not getting a clear passage last week. One to consider. | |||
7th (7)  (80/1 +20%)Aquadabra |
80/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Aquadabra 80/1, On a long losing run and has shown very little this year for new trainer. |

0.91/1(-107%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Shaara 0.91/1, Overcame inexperience to make winning start in 16-runner 1m Yarmouth novice in October. Struggled in the Fred Darling on her return but no surprise if she gets back on the up here. | |||
2nd (5)  (3/1 +33%)Shampion |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Shampion 3/1, From a great family and shaped well on debut at Lingfield (1m, AW) in December, not knocked about. Hood goes on. Sure to improve if all is well. | |||

3.33/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Invisible Friend 3.33/1, €160,000 foal, Sea The Stars filly. Sister to useful winner up to 1¼m Irish Legend (made successful debut) and half-sister to 5f-1m winner Torch Lit. Doesn't look too over-faced on debut. | |||
4th (3)  (12/1 +60%)Jubilee Girl |
12/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Jubilee Girl 12/1, Has shown a bit in 1m events (finished strongly at Musselburgh latest). Handicaps over further will be her bag. | |||
5th (4)  (40/1 +39%)Kitty Pi |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kitty Pi 40/1, Showed a bit more second time up at Ayr (7.2f) recently and will be of further interest in handicaps. |

2.5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Savrola 2.5/1, Has improved with each start in 3-y-o novices around 7f/1m, not knocked about at Newcastle 3 weeks ago. Bred to be better than his opening mark and of firm interest. | |||
2nd (1)  (2.25/1 -38%)Giovanni Baglione |
2.25/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Giovanni Baglione 2.25/1, From a good family and cost a fair bit and was much improved as he made a successful handicap debut at Newmarket (1m) 22 days ago, well on top from an in-form older rival. Hit with an 8 lb rise but no surprise if he has plenty more to offer. | |||
3rd (2)  (4.5/1 +25%)Dion Baker |
4.5/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Dion Baker 4.5/1, Much improved on handicap debut when second at Carlisle (7.8f) 7 weeks ago, hanging left but keeping on. That form hasn't worked out and he's up 3 lb but he could do better again. | |||
4th (3)  (2/1 +33%)Snapcracklepop |
2/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Snapcracklepop 2/1, Returned with an improved showing as he made a successful handicap debut at Nottingham (extended 1m) last month, rallying to lead again close home. Good second at Doncaster last week and clearly must be considered. |

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.
