Maillot Blanc

8
8/1(+33%)
(5) Maillot Blanc 8/1, Sulamani gelding who returned to form when third in 16-runner Hexham handicap (20f, heavy) 7 weeks ago. However, record is a somewhat patchy one so no sure thing to be in same form here.

Calidad

14
14/1(+30%)
(7) Calidad 14/1, Below par over fences this season, seventh of 9 in handicap here (20.9f) back in November. Needs to get back on track making handicap debut in this sphere.

3rd (1) Fazayte (2.5/1 +17%)
Fazayte

2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(1) Fazayte 2.5/1, Been in good order this campaign, adding to his tally over fences at Market Rasen (19f) last month prior to another sound effort when runner-up over hurdles on Boxing Day. Looks a sound player operating from same mark.
2
4th (2) Leading Swoop (16/1 -191%)
Leading Swoop

16
16/1(-191%)
(2) Leading Swoop 16/1, Unplaced in 4 Irish points and only minor promise on first of his 3 starts over hurdles. However, does now get a crack at handicaps so interesting what the market makes of him.
12
5th (12) Baliyad (28/1 -180%)
Baliyad

28
28/1(-180%)
(12) Baliyad 28/1, 8-y-o who bagged a Stratford selling handicap in September and has run well in defeat on his last 3 starts, best work at the finish when runner-up at Taunton (16.5f) 4 weeks ago. Step back up in trip rates a plus on that evidence.
14
6th (14) Doyens De Ante (14/1 -27%)
Doyens De Ante

14
14/1(-27%)
(14) Doyens De Ante 14/1, Returned with respectable fifth here (21.7f, good to soft) 57 days ago. Eased 2 lb subsequently but he will need to step up on that to feature equipped with a first-time tongue tie.
10
7th (10) Unwanted Attention (18/1 -50%)
Unwanted Attention

18
18/1(-50%)
(10) Unwanted Attention 18/1, Well held only start in bumpers but this low-mileage sort did offer definite hope for better still on his qualifying hurdles run at Uttoxeter (19.9f) 4 weeks ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement now handicapping and one to monitor in the betting. Tongue tie fitted.
15
8th (15) Justshortofabubble (16/1 +27%)
Justshortofabubble

16
16/1(+27%)
(15) Justshortofabubble 16/1, Left previous form well behind when going close over 19f at Taunton in March. Followed that with a respectable effort at Chepstow but he's proved to be a disappointment both starts so far this winter.
13
9th (13) Spiritus Mundi (80/1 -21%)
Spiritus Mundi

80
80/1(-21%)
(13) Spiritus Mundi 80/1, Maiden was in the processing of running well when taking a heavy fall in a Worcester handicap chase in October. Tried to refuse at the first last time, so this switch to hurdles perhaps acts as a confidence booster. Cheekpieces back on.
4
|U| (4) Midnight Gold (7/1 +42%)
Midnight Gold

7
7/1(+42%)
(4) Midnight Gold 7/1, Minor promise in handful of starts in Ireland and, having switched yards, she showed improved form when third in a mares' handicap at Fontwell (19.2f) in November, headway between last 2 and staying on. That may not prove her limit.
3
|PU| (3) Land Of My Delight (3.5/1 +30%)
Land Of My Delight

3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(3) Land Of My Delight 3.5/1, Fair maiden who returned to form when fifth in big-field Taunton handicap (19f) in November, coming from a long way back having nearly come down early on. Possible he can do better still and not out of things.
8
|PU| (8) Henri Le Bon (10/1 -11%)
Henri Le Bon

10
10/1(-11%)
(8) Henri Le Bon 10/1, Remains a maiden but went close on a couple of occasions at Uttoxeter during the summer. Below best when fourth in 7-runner Ludlow handicap in November though, and he goes back up in trip now.
16
|PU| (16) Kimberley Eve (28/1 +15%)
Kimberley Eve

28
28/1(+15%)
(16) Kimberley Eve 28/1, Modest in bumpers and has fared no better sent hurdling this season, finishing well held all 3 starts. However, she's in good hands so improvement not ruled out now attentions switch to handicaps. Market may prove a useful guide.
9
|PU| (9) Entre Deux (40/1 -60%)
Entre Deux

40
40/1(-60%)
(9) Entre Deux 40/1, Remains a maiden but he did show first form over fences when runner-up at Fontwell (21.6f, soft) when last seen in February. Needs to back that up on return back over smaller obstacles.
6
|PU| (6) Atjima (40/1 -21%)
Atjima

40
40/1(-21%)
(6) Atjima 40/1, Fair bumper winner who offered definite promise in mares' novice/maidens prior to falling before race had taken shape on handicap bow at Bangor (19.5f) back in April. Remains with potential on return to action. Blinkers back on.
11
|PU| (11) Sans Of Gold (80/1 -60%)
Sans Of Gold

80
80/1(-60%)
(11) Sans Of Gold 80/1, Unplaced completed start in points and hasn't offered much in 3 runs over a variety of trips over hurdles to date. Still, entitled to hold more chance now handicapping.

Tying The Knot

12
12/1(-9%)
(8) Tying The Knot 12/1, Fair maiden on the Flat but has achieved only modest form in juvenile hurdles at Southwell and Sandown in recent months. Improvement will be needed.
10

Jikala

2.75
2.75/1(+0%)
(10) Jikala 2.75/1, Fair form when fourth in 2 juvenile hurdles in France last spring. New connections acquired her for €22,000 in July. Interesting runner, particularly if the betting vibes are strong.

Tessy Lad

2.2
2.2/1(+2%)
(5) Tessy Lad 2.2/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m), winning 3 times between July and October. Sound start to his hurdle career when 4 lengths third of 6 at Newcastle (2m, good) in November. Likely to improve and play a prominent role here.
6
4th (6) Tropical Talent (28/1 +44%)
Tropical Talent

28
28/1(+44%)
(6) Tropical Talent 28/1, Fair maiden on the Flat but not seen since running poorly at Nottingham in April. Likely best watched now hurdling.

Just Another One

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(4) Just Another One 2.5/1, Ran to fairly useful level on second Flat outing and shaped well when runner-up on Market Rasen hurdle debut in September. Not up to a Cheltenham Grade 2 in November but retains potential back in calmer waters
1
6th (1) Apologise (16/1 -88%)
Apologise

16
16/1(-88%)
(1) Apologise 16/1, Fair Flat winner for Andrew Slattery in Ireland. 7/4, bit disappointing when distant third on his Market Rasen hurdle debut last month but it's obviously still early days. Has a tongue tie added this time.
2
7th (2) Archer (6.5/1 +13%)
Archer

6.5
6.5/1(+13%)
(2) Archer 6.5/1, Only modest form when placed 3 times from 6 starts on Flat (stays 9f) in Germany for Christian von der Recke but he's joined a stable which does well with juvenile hurdlers so he needs a betting check. Tongue tied.
3
8th (3) Elmaftun (150/1 -50%)
Elmaftun

150
150/1(-50%)
(3) Elmaftun 150/1, Well held on Flat (trained by Kevin Prendergast in Ireland initially) and no show in 2 hurdles for current yard, tailed off when falling 2 out latterly. Just Another One is very much the yard first string.
7
9th (7) Twm Sion (150/1 +0%)
Twm Sion

150
150/1(+0%)
(7) Twm Sion 150/1, Last in a pair of outings on the Flat at Bath in autumn 2021. Would be a shock winner now hurdling after an absence.

Highland Lass

200
200/1(-100%)
(9) Highland Lass 200/1, Little sign of ability in varied events on Flat before pulled up in C&D juvenile on hurdle debut 8 weeks ago. Easily passed over.

Post Chaise

2.5
2.5/1(+50%)
(6) Post Chaise 2.5/1, Won over hurdles at Hereford (21.7f) in March and has run well to make the frame all three starts since, clear runner-up at Haydock 35 days ago. Much respected now going chasing.
1
2nd (1) Diegos Way (7/1 -75%)
Diegos Way

7
7/1(-75%)
(1) Diegos Way 7/1, Winning pointer who has improved for the fitting of cheekpieces, off the mark over 3m at Bangor in October. Raced too freely over 4m when fading third at Hexham 49 days ago so he's of serious interest back at this trip.
10
3rd (10) Ballybreen (6.5/1 +19%)
Ballybreen

6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(10) Ballybreen 6.5/1, Generally out of sorts since last year but he won this event in 2020 so can't be totally ruled out after his Ffos Las reappearance seventh in November. Mark is easing.
11
4th (11) Old Page (50/1 +24%)
Old Page

50
50/1(+24%)
(11) Old Page 50/1, Successful between the flags during the spring and didn't shape badly on chase debut at Cartmel in August. However, no show both subsequent completions and he needs to get back on track.
2
5th (2) Big Changes (5/1 -67%)
Big Changes

5
5/1(-67%)
(2) Big Changes 5/1, Dual winner at Sedgefield and Ayr this season. Posted another solid effort when third of 7 in handicap chase (11/10) at Wetherby (24.2f) 53 days ago so merits consideration.
7
6th (7) Surdoue De Ballon (16/1 +20%)
Surdoue De Ballon

16
16/1(+20%)
(7) Surdoue De Ballon 16/1, Fairly useful chaser in France, though it's now twenty-six runs since his sole win in 2019. Much more is required for his current yard.
14
7th (14) Son Of Oz (33/1 +59%)
Son Of Oz

33
33/1(+59%)
(14) Son Of Oz 33/1, No solid form. Tried visored when pulled up in handicap chase at Sedgefield (26.9f) 33 days ago. It's easy to look elsewhere.
3
8th (3) Fort Denison (20/1 -67%)
Fort Denison

20
20/1(-67%)
(3) Fort Denison 20/1, Maiden on Flat/over hurdles who ran up to best over timber when third at Stratford (22f) in October 2021. No impact on return/chase debut at Lingfield in November but yard in much better form now.
5
9th (5) Mr Katanga (9/1 +36%)
Mr Katanga

9
9/1(+36%)
(5) Mr Katanga 9/1, Responded well to first-time cheekpieces when off the mark in handicap chase at Chepstow in February. Below that form so far this term so he needs to step forward now.
9
|PU| (9) Findusatgorcombe (7.5/1 -15%)
Findusatgorcombe

7.5
7.5/1(-15%)
(9) Findusatgorcombe 7.5/1, It's now twelve runs since his last win in 2020 but he recorded a good second of 9 in handicap chase at Wincanton (26.7f) 34 days ago. Shortlisted.
8
|PU| (8) Separate Ways (14/1 +44%)
Separate Ways

14
14/1(+44%)
(8) Separate Ways 14/1, Maiden Irish pointer who hasn't shown a great deal over hurdles but fences could see him in a better light. No forlorn hope up in trip on his handicap debut.
4

Aughnacurra King

25
25/1(-56%)
(4) Aughnacurra King 25/1, Opened account under Rules when taking 3m2f handicap chase at Plumpton. Not discredited after 25 months off when third of 4 in handicap chase at Fontwell (21.6f) 52 days ago. Considered.

Cadeau Du Bresil

33
33/1(+34%)
(13) Cadeau Du Bresil 33/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Wincanton (26.7f) 34 days ago. Doesn't appear to retain much ability or enthusiasm.

Moroval

50
50/1(-52%)
(12) Moroval 50/1, Sprang a major surprise when 100/1-winner of 7-runner handicap chase at Southwell (24.3f) 43 days ago. This veteran needs to back it up now from 2 lb out of the handicap.

Saint Segal

1.1
1.1/1(+37%)
(1) Saint Segal 1.1/1, Fairly useful hurdler who made a promising winning start to his chase career in 2m Chepstow novice handicap in November, scoring with plenty in hand. Definitely more to come and leading claims.
2
2nd (2) Christopher Wood (2.5/1 +17%)
Christopher Wood

2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(2) Christopher Wood 2.5/1, Pretty smart hurdler at his best. Some way below that level when third on sole chase start back in spring 2021 but that hurdle ability does provide obvious hope for better. Has had wind surgery ahead of this first outing in 9 months.
3

Dans Le Vent

20
20/1(-43%)
(3) Dans Le Vent 20/1, Useful hurdler, including bagging a valuable 3m Haydock handicap last season. Runner-up on his completed start over fences back in 2019 but pulled up in Leicester novice on his belated return to chasing just a week ago. Hard to support with confidence after that.
5
4th (5) Feuille De Lune (8.5/1 -143%)
Feuille De Lune

8.5
8.5/1(-143%)
(5) Feuille De Lune 8.5/1, Won last 4 starts in points and also made a successful start under Rules in 25f Cheltenham hunter in April, looking in control a good way out despite jumping right. Definitely more to come but she does take a marked drop in trip on this first start for a new yard.
4
5th (4) Grey Skies (4.5/1 +0%)
Grey Skies

4.5
4.5/1(+0%)
(4) Grey Skies 4.5/1, Won a point before landing 2m maiden/novice hurdles for this yard last winter. Bit disappointing on his Carlisle chase debut/reappearance in October but it was a warm race and it would be no surprise to see him fare a lot better this time.

(1) Don't Rightly Know 5.5/1, Point winner who left Rules debut behind when runner-up back from 14 months off in 22.2f Uttoxeter novice in December 2021, rallying for second run-in. Off a further 12 months but excellent chance of going one better if reproducing that.

Fairy Gem

1.2
1.2/1(+47%)
(3) Fairy Gem 1.2/1, Fairly useful in bumpers (winner on debut) but has failed to meet expectations on both starts over hurdles, including upped in trip last time. Clearly thought capable of better and maybe first-time cheekpieces will unlock some improvement.

16/1(+20%)
(4) Gamesters Girl 16/1, Hinted at ability in bumpers and made an encouraging debut in this sphere in a first-time hood after 5 months off when third at Bangor (19.6f) in September. Went backwards at Stratford next time but was still in need of the experience. Back from short break.

7/1(-40%)
(2) Not Sure 7/1, Still looking for first success but made the frame on several occasions over hurdles. Failed to come on for reappearance when a well-beaten fourth at Uttoxeter 6 weeks ago and hopes now pinned on first-time blinkers sparking a revival.

2nd (1) Henschke (8/1 +6%)
Henschke

8/1(+6%)
(1) Henschke 8/1, Yet to get his head in front and shaped as if better for the run after 9 months off when mid-field at Plumpton (20.5f, good to soft) on seasonal reappearance in November. Had a breathing op and could do better with attentions switched to chasing.

3rd (3) Skinflint (4.5/1 -13%)
Skinflint

4.5
4.5/1(-13%)
(3) Skinflint 4.5/1, Consistent sort who posted a good second in handicap chase at Hereford (20.9f) when last seen out 10 months ago. Much respected on the back of a breathing operation with yard in fine form.
12
4th (12) Shaw's Cross (4.5/1 +25%)
Shaw's Cross

4.5
4.5/1(+25%)
(12) Shaw's Cross 4.5/1, Built on encouraging return over hurdles when good second in 2m Lingfield handicap chase in November. Unlucky to bump into another handicap blot at Plumpton next time and he's proving consistent at present so has to be high on the shortlist.

5th (9) Rock On Rita (22/1 +0%)
Rock On Rita

22
22/1(+0%)
(9) Rock On Rita 22/1, Point winner who took 2 mares' handicap hurdles last season but has struggled in a pair of starts over fences so far (shaped as if amiss first occasion). Cheekpieces applied today but best watched.

6th (5) Ben Brody (50/1 -52%)
Ben Brody

50/1(-52%)
(5) Ben Brody 50/1, Made a winning return over timber at Uttoxeter last season but shaped as if needing the run in that corresponding event prior to departing last month. Handicapper given him a squeak but he may prove vulnerable to younger legs.
7
7th (7) Lazy Sunday (5/1 +0%)
Lazy Sunday

5/1(+0%)
(7) Lazy Sunday 5/1, Didn't always look an easy ride over hurdles last term but showed an aptitude for this game when third on return/chase debut at Worcester (23f). Possibilities if able to put her subsequent first-fence fall at Taunton behind her.
8
8th (8) Uberman (14/1 +44%)
Uberman

14
14/1(+44%)
(8) Uberman 14/1, Stepped up on his reappearance when third of 7 in handicap chase at Lingfield (16f, good to soft, 7/1) just under 6 weeks ago. Greater test of stamina here should be beneficial and he's respected.
11
9th (11) Kestrel Valley (5/1 +23%)
Kestrel Valley

5
5/1(+23%)
(11) Kestrel Valley 5/1, Was really getting the hang of things over fences as last season ended but little to shout about on both outings so far this season, running a moody sort of race at Ffos Las (23.8f, soft) 40 days ago. Needs to get back on track.
6
10th (6) Wind Tor (22/1 +12%)
Wind Tor

22
22/1(+12%)
(6) Wind Tor 22/1, Back-to-back handicap chase winner over 3m at Exeter in March. Not in the same form at Warwick next start and carried zero win threat making his hunter debut when last seen at Cheltenham (25.2f, good) 8 months ago. Returns from her last winning mark but inexperienced rider booked.
13
11th (13) Tanrudy (20/1 -100%)
Tanrudy

20
20/1(-100%)
(13) Tanrudy 20/1, Modest operator who has just the one success to his name. Makes return for a new yard after 16 months off the track and this should reveal what ability remains.
14
|PU| (14) Demothi (33/1 +0%)
Demothi

33
33/1(+0%)
(14) Demothi 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. Keeping on in fourth when unseated rider last on chasing debut but ran to just a poor level when completing in third at Newton Abbot a month later. Percentage call is to look elsewhere on reappearance.

|PU| (10) Dawn Wonder (150/1 -50%)
Dawn Wonder

150
150/1(-50%)
(10) Dawn Wonder 150/1, Modest form at best over hurdles in Ireland and no promise on debut for this yard at Ludlow in November. Best watched on chase debut.

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.
