14:10 Hereford Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

SEAHOUSES sprung a 33/1 surprise when making all of the running to score by over two lengths in this class at Market Rasen earlier in the month and he is only 4lb higher today. The five-year-old might only need a repeat of that effort in order to record the double. Sullivan Bay occupied the runner-up berth when last seen in this sphere at Plumpton in December and could get involved off a 3lb higher rating. Of the remainder, Lelant makes most appeal.

SULLIVAN BAY has been in great heart since joining current connections, underlined by a narrow defeat when last seen over hurdles, having looked the winner for a long way. He's still feasibly treated and could take advantage of his lowly handicap mark at the expense of Seahouses who is the only one of these to have won a hurdles race, while it will be interesting to see if any support comes for Lelant, whose mark has plummeted. Nollyador is respected now, having missed Exeter on Friday.

The suggestion is NOLLYADOR, who is very lightly raced for his age and returned from a long absence with a pleasing run in December.

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

The one to be on is GRIS MAJEUR. The son of Gris De Gris was beaten a neck into second at Ffos Las last time and boasts two previous course victories (over hurdles) to further aid his cause. Intimate isn't ruled out as he's also a previous winner at this track, while Jaipaletemps is another expected to go well in a first-time tongue-tie.

GOOD FRIDAY FAIRY was back to his very best when an easy all-the-way winner at Wincanton last week and can defy an 8 lb rise. Gris Majeur went close at Ffos Las last time so looks the obvious threat.

Preference is for GRIS MAJEUR, who got his act together over fences and ran a big race in defeat at Ffos Las this month.

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

LAUGHING JOHN finished just under four lengths behind Star Of Guiting (second) when third on his hurdling debut at Newbury last month and he could improve past that more exposed rival. Le Soleil Reve failed to justify favouritism on his first start at Exeter in December (a race won by Star Of Guiting) but he might be worth another chance, while any market confidence behind newcomer Mad Maxios would be interesting.

STAR OF GUITING is taken to confirm last month's Newbury superiority over Laughing John, although this is a contest where nothing can be safely ruled out as Mad Maxios is a newcomer from a powerful stable, while the fact Le Soleil Reve and Pink Breeze went off short prices on debut suggests that they are thought capable of better than they showed.

Star Of Guiting has the best form but LAUGHING JOHN and Le Soleil Reve may both have the potential to improve past him.

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

LAGONDA returned to winning ways over 3m at Bangor a couple of weeks ago and a 5lb rise may not be enough to stop the 10-year-old from following up. That said, Almazhar Garde has been knocking hard on the door of late and is likely to be in the mix once again, while Champagnesuperover has the ability to go well if putting in a clear round of jumping.

CAP DU NORD is difficult to assess at present but he tends to come good at this time of year (6 wins in February/March) and has been given a big chance by the handicapper, so he could be worth risking here with his stable back among the winners. Champagnesuperover let down his supporters at Catterick but he's threatening to come good, while Lagonda arrives on the back of a career-best win at Bangor.

The suggestion is LAGONDA (nap), who ran very well in a competitive C&D mares' race in December and returns here after a recent win.

16:10 Hereford Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Picture Of You has to be noted on her debut for new connections as she was second on her final two starts in Ireland. However, a chance can be taken on YOUHADMEATHELLO, who won between the flags in November 2023 and was bought for 90,000 pounds subsequently. The break is a slight concern but she could prove to be a class above. The rest all have questions to answer, but Crying Lightning is the pick of them.

The betting should reveal plenty but Alastair Ralph's new ex-Irish recruit PICTURE OF YOU has some fairly useful form to her name so is taken to make light of an absence and get off the mark. Both Crying Lightning and Youhadmeathello offer potential starting out in this sphere though and could emerge as big threats in that order.

Alastair Ralph's PICTURE OF YOU does not have an entirely convincing profile but her best Irish form makes her the one to beat.

16:40 Hereford Handicap Chase (Class 5) 25f Race Class Flow

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

This looks a good opportunity for JO LESCRIBAA to complete the hat-trick. The Venetia Williams-trained gelding shaped as though this extra yardage would suit when completing the double in good style over an extended 2m7f at Chepstow last month and, with scope for further progress, an 8lb hike for that victory may not be enough to halt him. Chasing newcomer Minniemum sits on a decent mark and returned to form with a good third over hurdles at Warwick last time. She could prove the main threat, ahead of Iron D'ex.

JO LESCRIBAA's form is on an upward curve so Venetia Williams' young chaser is fancied to make light of an 8 lb weight hike and complete his hat-trick here. Henry Daly's chasing newcomer Minniemum arrives in good nick over hurdles and could prove the pick of the rest, although Iron d'Ex, Shillanavogy and Haut Folin all command respect too.

Chasing newcomer MINNIEMUM ran well off this mark in a competitive hurdle last time and is an alternative to Jo Lescribaa.

Bohemond Antioch is the only runner with previous experience but he doesn't set the bar very high and this could go to one of the interesting newcomers. Donttellyamumjack falls into that category as a half-brother to six winners and hailing from a respected yard, while it would be no surprise to see Pearl Smoke go well, but narrow preference is for HAY MACLEOD. A half-brother to 2m hurdle winner Hawk Stone, Alan King's gelding cost 60,000 pounds as a three-year-old and connections look to have found a good chance to recoup some of that outlay at the first attempt.

The suggestion is Alan King's HAY MACLEOD before any betting clues are known. Donttellyamumjack is another obvious one for a stable which gets plenty of bumper winners, while a market move for Forthfactor would be interesting given Tom Weston has done well in similar races this season.

Watch the betting but as things stand PEARL SMOKE is preferred over Hay Macleod and Donttellyamumjack.

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.
