1st (6) (0.3/1 +47%) Marada |
0.3/1(+47%) | (6) Marada 0.3/1, Placed in Huntingdon listed bumper last season and good start to hurdles career when going close on recent return at Warwick (2m, good). Open to improvement and she's the one to beat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (4/1 +33%) Mick Mona |
4/1(+33%) | (7) Mick Mona 4/1, Has shown a fair level of ability in this sphere, not least when fourth in 16.3f Newbury handicap (first run following wind op) in this headgear combination last December. Each-way claims if tuned-up. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (9) (6.5/1 +24%) Saturn 'n Silk |
6.5/1(+24%) | (9) Saturn 'n Silk 6.5/1, Has taken steps forward on each of her 3 starts in bumpers, finding just one too good at Southwell (15.8f, good to firm) last time. Place possibilities if jumping passes the test now hurdling. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (10) (125/1 -25%) Telekinetic |
125/1(-25%) | (10) Telekinetic 125/1, Both wins on the Flat were gained on the all-weather and in modest company. Well held both starts in this sphere to date and she's hard to warm to. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (13) (150/1 -200%) World Trip |
150/1(-200%) | (13) World Trip 150/1, Glimmers of ability on debut in a bumper last month but recent spin over hurdles at Chepstow wasn't particularly inspiring. Likely to need more time and distance. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (200/1 +0%) Persuer |
200/1(+0%) | (8) Persuer 200/1, Fair middle-distance maiden on Flat for David Simcock in 2019. However, looked cooked when falling 2 out on hurdles debut last month and well beaten at Market Rasen next time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (12/1 +0%) Lyrical Ballad |
12/1(+0%) | (5) Lyrical Ballad 12/1, Caught the eye on second start over hurdles at Bangor in July before going close on the Flat the following month. Should win races in this sphere, particularly when going down the handicap route. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (4) (80/1 -100%) Follow That |
80/1(-100%) | (4) Follow That 80/1, Showed ability in bumpers earlier this year but well held in 2 starts over hurdles since returning from a break in October. Yard also saddles World Trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (100/1 -25%) The City Cobbler |
100/1(-25%) | (11) The City Cobbler 100/1, Well held completed start in bumpers (ran out on debut) and cut little ice with hood enlisted (retained here) in 2 starts over hurdles last season. Probably more one for handicaps later on. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (250/1 +17%) Final Sting |
250/1(+17%) | (3) Final Sting 250/1, Winless from 5 starts between the flags and recent C&D Rules debut was hardly inspiring. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (12) (28/1 -56%) West Coast Glory |
28/1(-56%) | (12) West Coast Glory 28/1, Modest form in bumpers and, fitted with a first-time tongue strap (on again here), she was pulled up on last month's hurdles debut at Newton Abbot. |

1.2/1(-20%) | (1) El Presente 1.2/1, Winner of 2 of his last 3 starts, producing a career-best when seeing off 5 rivals at Exeter (24.2f, good) recently. 5 lb rise fair and another bold show on the cards. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

1.5/1(+45%) | (3) Aye Aye Charlie 1.5/1, Highly-tried over hurdles after landing a Kelso novice in November 2018. Failed to shine switched to fences last season but since undergone wind surgery and he is feared off this reduced mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (6/1 -9%) Manning Estate |
6/1(-9%) | (4) Manning Estate 6/1, Signed off for last term by landing 3m handicap hurdle at Doncaster. Recent reappearance effort was encouraging but will need to jump better than he did on sole previous chase start. Blinkers applied. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (14/1 -180%) Ruthless Article |
14/1(-180%) | (2) Ruthless Article 14/1, Won 3 times from 9 starts over hurdles. Lacked conviction at his fences when a remote second on Ludlow chase debut (2½m, good to firm) but he's worth another chance, particularly over this new trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (50/1 +0%) Stay Out Of Court |
50/1(+0%) | (5) Stay Out Of Court 50/1, Dual point winner but latest start in that sphere was low-key, and he was disappointing when last seen under Rules back in 2017 (final run for David Pipe). 6 lb 'wrong' at the weights on chase debut. |

0.91/1(+0%) | (7) Ziggy Rose 0.91/1, Runner-up on 4 of her 5 starts last season, including in a mares' listed event at Doncaster (24.4f, heavy) in February. Reproduction of that form would make her very hard to beat. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

8/1(-7%) | (1) Call Simon 8/1, Below expectations only run in bumpers but shaped very much like a stayer sent hurdling when third in the mud at Wincanton (19.8f) in March. May improve again for another step up in trip for new yard. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

6.5/1(+19%) | (7) Atlantic Storm 6.5/1, In good heart during the summer, third at Southwell on return in July prior to hitting the crossbar 3 times at Stratford. Below par last time but no surprise to see him bounce back with a bold show. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (4.5/1 +10%) Carolines Charm |
4.5/1(+10%) | (4) Carolines Charm 4.5/1, Raised his game a touch when landing a 6-runner Plumpton handicap (17f, good to firm) last month. Conditions again in his favour but more needed off this 6 lb higher mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (10/1 +0%) Ballyvic Boru |
10/1(+0%) | (1) Ballyvic Boru 10/1, Just 1 lb higher than for latest success at Wetherby 12 months ago but hasn't come close to matching that form in 6 subsequent starts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (2.75/1 -10%) Falcon Sun |
2.75/1(-10%) | (6) Falcon Sun 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler who won twice at Leicester in 2018/19. Put in a decent round of jumping when second in a 4-runner Warwick handicap (16.2f, good) on chase debut and he needs considering. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (3.5/1 -17%) Tikkinthebox |
3.5/1(-17%) | (2) Tikkinthebox 3.5/1, Winner of 2 of his 3 starts since returning to action in July, producing his best effort yet at Stratford (17f, good to firm) last time. 6 lb rise tolerable and should make another bold bid. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (4/1 +33%) Flying Tiger |
4/1(+33%) | (3) Flying Tiger 4/1, Capable hurdler when on-song and appeared to take a step back in the right direction on fourth start over fences at Kempton in March (since undergone wind surgery). Still, he's not one to rely on. |

1.62/1(+35%) | (1) Fugitives Drift 1.62/1, Huntingdon novice winner in February and further progress when making a successful reappearance at Bangor (19.6f, good to soft) last month. Player off what looks a fair opening mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (14/1 +36%) Mustang Alpha |
14/1(+36%) | (4) Mustang Alpha 14/1, Winning pointer who didn't shape at all badly when third on Rules debut in Huntingdon maiden hurdle last November. However, he was pulled up on handicap bow at Uttoxeter last month. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (3.33/1 +17%) Red Nika |
3.33/1(+17%) | (3) Red Nika 3.33/1, Promise in trio of novice hurdles and this point winner raised his game when runner-up on handicap debut at Warwick (21f, good) last month. 4 lb rise fair and he should have more to offer. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (20/1 -135%) Motashakel |
20/1(-135%) | (7) Motashakel 20/1, Flat winner for Kevin Prendergast in Ireland and improved effort when third on handicap debut in this sphere at Warwick in January. Not disgraced on the level last month but needs to up his game here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

6th (6) (14/1 -56%) Unai |
14/1(-56%) | (6) Unai 14/1, Benefited from the step up in trip when third in 13-runner Market Rasen novice (20.6f, soft) in February. Faster ground here should help and claims on handicap bow. Yard also saddles Anightinlambourn. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (3.33/1 -11%) Lucky One |
3.33/1(-11%) | (2) Lucky One 3.33/1, Runner-up both starts in France and shaped well back from a 15-month layoff on sole start for Willie Mullins at Punchestown (2½m, heavy) in February. Likely improver on handicap debut for new yard. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (28/1 -75%) Winged Isle |
28/1(-75%) | (5) Winged Isle 28/1, In the process of producing an improved effort when departing 3 out on handicap debut over this C&D (heavy) in March. Different conditions back from a 7-month break but he's open to improvement. |

8.5/1(+6%) | (2) Prettylittlething 8.5/1, Has gone well fresh but offered little after 11 months off when remote fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, good) 26 days ago. Should be sharper now but still bit to prove. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

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.
