1st (4) (5/1 +29%) The Wise Traveller |
5/1(+29%) | (4) The Wise Traveller 5/1, Won C&D handicap in February. Ended his time with Charlie Longsdon (sold £9,000 in August) with a below-par effort in April and fared even worse than in a couple of tries over fences previously after 6 months off when tailed off here last month. Now back hurdling with a bit to prove. Won over C&D in February and could have a big say now back over hurdles for in-form yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (11/2 -38%) Oceans Red |
11/2(-38%) | (7) Oceans Red 11/2, Three-time winner over fences, including twice last season. Possibly needed the run after 5 months off (breathing operation in interim) when fifth of 6 at Sedgefield (26.9f, good to soft) last month and connections now attempt to exploit his lower hurdles mark. Below best over fences on last three starts but not discounted off a lower hurdle mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (7/2 +30%) Poker Master |
7/2(+30%) | (1) Poker Master 7/2, Won 3 on the bounce during 2021/22 campaign and progressed again on first 2 starts of last season, landing back-to-back 20.7f handicaps at this track (4 course wins in total). Ran creditably on return when fourth at Plumpton (20.5f) 19 days ago and fancied to be in the mix back here. 4-time course winner (2m/2m4f); stamina to prove but nevertheless respected now back here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (14/1 -211%) Quiet Thunder |
14/1(-211%) | (5) Quiet Thunder 14/1, In a bit of form over the summer but produced a particularly laboured effort when last seen at Fontwell (21.8f, good) in September. Blinkers back on but she's not one to place too much faith in. Hasn't progressed but the step up in trip could be a positive move; possible player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 -22%) Anger Management |
11/1(-22%) | (3) Anger Management 11/1, Exploits distinctly mixed following scoring here last October but returned to form from out of the blue to double career tally at Bangor (19.5f) in September, the increase in trip suiting well. However, failed by a long chalk to back that up at this track since so must bounce back. Inconsistent & unraced beyond 2m4f but this course winner scored at Bangor two starts ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (9/2 +0%) Masterdream |
9/2(+0%) | (2) Masterdream 9/2, Dual winner at Worcester (20f) last year and successful on the Flat at Ffos Las (2m) in July. Upped in trip on his return to hurdling, produced his best effort in this sphere when scoring comfortably at Hereford (25.5f) but bit below that form when third at Market Rasen since. Won in good style at Hereford; beaten since when unpenalised but on slower ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (33/1 -175%) Mr Palmtree |
33/1(-175%) | (6) Mr Palmtree 33/1, Dual chase winner in 2020/21 before missing the following campaign. Back over hurdles this year, showed he retains his ability when successful in handicap at Warwick (3m2f) in March, though not in the same form on both subsequent starts. Makes return after 6 months off. Won in March but that was his sole bright run among five starts earlier this year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (8) (6/1 +8%) If I Say |
6/1(+8%) | (8) If I Say 6/1, Placed 4 times over fences this summer, latest when a well-beaten third of 8 in handicap at this course (23.6f, good to firm) last month, plugging on past beaten horses late on. More experienced pilot back on board and she's fancied to be in the shake-up. Poor strike-rate & below par over fences latest but in good form in that sphere previously. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (8/1 +50%) Counteract |
8/1(+50%) | (9) Counteract 8/1, Campaigned over fences in recent seasons and standout effort last term came when third at this track 12 months ago. Finished well held having a rare outing over timber at Plumpton (25f, good to firm) when last seen 6 months and given his patchy record, he's probably best watched on return. Fair third over fences here last December but struggled on his next two starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Poker Master is a four-time course winner who shaped nicely on his recent reappearance, but this is very much unknown territory trip-wise for him and he's maybe best taken on with MASTERDREAM. Neil Mulholland's charge proved his stamina for this trip with a convincing victory at Hereford earlier this month and he wasn't too far off on softer ground than ideal at Market Rasen last time. Oceans Red, a three-time chase winner, looks potentially well treated back over hurdles and is also worth considering.
Plenty in with a squeak but the vote goes to IF I SAY, who finished with running left when well-beaten here last month and, with Lilly Pinchin back in the plate, Charlie Longsdon's 6-y-o can take advantage of a reduced mark back hurdling with headgear applied for just a second time. Oceans Red, Poker Master and Counteract are just a handful of possible dangers.
Sarah Humphrey's horses are running well and C&D winner THE WISE TRAVELLER is the pick now back hurdling on his second stable start.

1st (4) (4/11 +55%) Tellherthename |
4/11(+55%) | (4) Tellherthename 4/11, £200,000 half-brother to useful hurdler Whatsnotoknow and offered plenty to work on when runner-up on his Ascot hurdle debut (15.7f) 3 weeks ago. Sure to progress and win races. £200,000 buy after Irish point win; pipped in a novice hurdle at Ascot (1m7f, soft). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (7/1 -155%) Lucky Place |
7/1(-155%) | (3) Lucky Place 7/1, €48,000 3-y-o. Half-brother to 4 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/chaser Ultra Lucky. Shaped like a stayer when second in a C&D bumper 6 months ago and, although longer trips will suit better in time, he still warrants plenty of respect making hurdling bow for top yard. Bumper 2nd here was nothing special but he should improve and represents a top yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (9/2 +18%) Zain Nights |
9/2(+18%) | (7) Zain Nights 9/2, Useful and consistent on Flat (stays 2¼m), creditable effort last time. Subsequently sold from Harry & Roger Charlton for 75,000 gns. Interesting hurdling debutant for in-form yard. Stayed 2m when useful (best of these) and consistent on Flat; left Charltons for 75,000gns. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (12/1 -20%) Jour D'Evasion |
12/1(-20%) | (2) Jour D'Evasion 12/1, Shaped quite well in a bumper on debut and did so again sent hurdling in first-time tongue strap after 5 months off when third of 16 at Ludlow 30 days ago. Open to improvement. 22-1, third of 16 in a novice at Ludlow (2m, good to soft), no match for the first two. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (25/1 +0%) Soigneux Bell |
25/1(+0%) | (9) Soigneux Bell 25/1, Made a winning debut on the Flat in France in May and ran to a fair level when second in a 1¼m Epsom novice on his first run for Gary Moore. Pulled too hard when a well-held sixth on his Kempton hurdle debut but should improve, particularly if settling better. Fair Flat form (two starts); needs to settle and jump better than on Kempton hurdles debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (125/1 -279%) Bridge |
125/1(-279%) | (8) Bridge 125/1, Modest maiden on the Flat for Brian Meehan but comfortably held both starts over hurdles. Needs this for a handicap mark. Poor in both Flat runs this year and the same in his two hurdle races for new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (50/1 -257%) West Warhorse |
50/1(-257%) | (6) West Warhorse 50/1, Brother to useful hurdler/very smart chaser Western Warhorse. Has shaped with some promise in a trio of bumpers but needs a step forward on this switch to hurdling. None of his bumper form (three races) suggests he's the one to be on yet. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (100/1 -100%) Total Lockdown |
100/1(-100%) | (5) Total Lockdown 100/1, Fair on Flat (stays 1½m) but ran below form on most recent outing and would be an unlikely winner on hurdle debut. Hood retained. Usually hooded; fit from the Flat (1-19; fair form) and not totally dismissed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (10) (66/1 +34%) Gino's Girl |
66/1(+34%) | (10) Gino's Girl 66/1, Modest maiden on Flat (stays 2m), mid-field in handicap last time. Easy to look elsewhere. Modest six-race maiden on the Flat, tried at up to 2m; needs a transformation. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (300/1 -809%) Eklil |
300/1(-809%) | (1) Eklil 300/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 11.5f), won in June, but disappointed only outing since. Subsequently sold from Rae Guest's yard for 15,000 gns. Hooded. Left Rae Guest for 15,000gns in September; fair middle-distance Flat performer; now hooded. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Zain Nights, an 89-rated Flat handicapper for Roger Charlton, looks an interesting recruit to hurdling for Lucy Wadham, but it's still hard to look beyond expensive point-to-point winner TELLHERTHENAME, who produced a performance full of promise to push the highly-regarded Jango Baie close at Ascot on his recent hurdles debut. It's still early days for Jour D'evasion and Lucky Place but both have already shown enough to merit some consideration in an event like this.
TELLHERTHENAME was well backed and shaped with plenty of encouragement when runner-up on his Ascot hurdle debut 3 weeks ago and should take a bit of stopping with improvement on the cards. Zain Nights, a useful and consistent Flat performer, is an interesting hurdling debutant, with Jour d'Evasion entitled to build on his Ludlow third.
This looks a good opportunity for TELLHERTHENAME who lost out by a nose at Ascot. Zain Nights is useful on the Flat.

1st (3) (4/5 +12%) Sashenka |
4/5(+12%) | (3) Sashenka 4/5, Fairly useful on the Flat and similar merit over hurdles, battling well for a second success over timber in handicap at Newbury (20.5f) in March. Back on the level, met with interference when seventh at Goodwood (2m) when last seen in May. Leading contender on her chase debut. Flat bred; the one to beat if her 2m4f hurdles form is transferred to fences. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (5/2 +55%) Impression Chic |
5/2(+55%) | (1) Impression Chic 5/2, Ex-pointer who stepped up on her hurdles form when making a winning chase debut in a first-time tongue strap at Fontwell in October. Good second at Musselburgh (20.3f) next time, before racing freely upped in trip at Leicester (22.7f) 5 days ago. Can give her running again. Has done well switched to fences but two of these rivals have much better hurdles form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (10/3 -122%) Holly Hartingo |
10/3(-122%) | (2) Holly Hartingo 10/3, Runner-up in an Irish point and scored at the second attempt over hurdles in novice at this course (20.7f) in January 2022. Lightly raced since, having only one outing last season before pulled up on her chase debut here (23.6f) in October. It remains early days over fences, though. A leading contender on hurdles evidence but pulled up on chase debut here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (80/1 -142%) Stop This Train |
80/1(-142%) | (4) Stop This Train 80/1, Placed once from 4 starts in Irish points but has offered little in a trio of maiden hurdles, finishing well held on her only completed outing at Fakenham (20f) 12 days ago. Looks to be up against it on her chase debut. Runner-up in one of four Irish points; no worthwhile form in three hurdle races. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
SASHENKA was the pick of these over hurdles and this looks an ideal starting point for her chasing debut, particularly in light of the unconvincing, error-strewn effort from her principal ratings rival, Holly Hartingo, on her own fencing bow here last month. Impression Chic has shown up well in some minor handicap chases but faces a stiffer task conceding weight to better-rated rivals in this event.
SASHENKA had been in good form over hurdles earlier this year, showing a willing attitude when scoring at Newbury in March before running creditably at Cheltenham the following month, so she is taken to make a winning start over fences. Holly Hartingo could fare better with her seasonal/chase debut behind her and is feared most, ahead of Impression Chic.
Impression Chic has shown she can jump fences but Sashenka and HOLLY HARTINGO are at least 20lb better judged on hurdles form.

1st (1) (9/4 +72%) Beachcomber |
9/4(+72%) | (1) Beachcomber 9/4, Looked useful when winning easily at Chepstow on his second bumper outing but career has been rather stop-start since and hasn't yet bettered the form of his hurdles debut fifth at Worcester. Bit to prove now. Bumper winner; ran okay on hurdling debut but took backward step last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (4/1 -167%) Transmission |
4/1(-167%) | (6) Transmission 4/1, Runner-up at Wexford on debut and got back on track after a couple of lesser efforts when fourth at Tipperary on final outing last year. Well held on debut over fences since, but he'd have a chance if bouncing back on debut for new yard. Had mixed record in Ireland but best form gives him strong claims here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (9/2 +63%) Hey Brother |
9/2(+63%) | (2) Hey Brother 9/2, £75,000 buy from the Irish pointing field and showed fair form when making the frame in a pair of bumpers in the spring. Below that level when tenth of 18 in novice hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, soft) on hurdles bow 21 days ago but could well do better up in trip. Disappointed on recent hurdling debut but his point/bumper form offers hope. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/4 -105%) Mumford's Magic |
9/4(-105%) | (5) Mumford's Magic 9/4, Maiden pointer wasn't beaten far when third at Hexham on second hurdles outing and backed that up another good effort there 15 days ago. Leading player now up in trip. Close second over 2m4f on heavy this month; big player if today's trip/ground suits. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (66/1 +34%) Lindaka |
66/1(+34%) | (4) Lindaka 66/1, Showed ability in a point but there's been little to shout about under Rules so far, shaping as if amiss when up in novice hurdle at Uttoxeter (23.3f, good to soft) in February. Needs to leave previous form well behind. Struggled on both hurdling starts in early part of this year (2m3f/2m7f). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (17/2 +29%) Ideal De Romay |
17/2(+29%) | (3) Ideal De Romay 17/2, Successful at the third attempt in Irish points and shaped as if possessing more ability than the distance beaten would suggest when beaten a long way at Warwick on Rules debut. Big step forward needed, but he looks open to improvement. Irish point winner; showed some promise before tiring quickly on recent hurdling debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (50/1 -25%) Warrior's Fate |
50/1(-25%) | (7) Warrior's Fate 50/1, £14,000 5-y-o, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler/chaser The Road Home, stays 2¾m. Dam unraced. Placed on last of 3 starts in Irish points. Others preferred. Bought for £14,000 since Irish point third in May; probably best watched on rules debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
MUMFORD'S MAGIC has progressed with each start over hurdles and the five-year-old appears to have been found an excellent opportunity to shed the maiden tag following his recent second at Hexham. Transmission sports cheekpieces for the first time on his UK debut following an underwhelming chase debut at Kilbeggan in the summer. Ideal De Romay and Hey Brother appeal as the types who can leave their recent efforts behind them.
MUMFORD'S MAGIC appeals as the most solid option here after a pair of sound placed efforts at Hexham. Transmission would be able to give him plenty to think about if getting back to the pick of his Irish form on his stable debut for Neil Mulholland, with Beachcomber most appealing of the remainder.
The safest option is MUMFORD'S MAGIC, who shaped as though stamina is his strong suit when going close over 2m4f at Hexham this month.

1st (10) (15/8 +62%) Parc D'Amour |
15/8(+62%) | (10) Parc D'Amour 15/8, Bumper winner who is knocking on the door in this sphere, tongue tied when clear second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Big shout nudged up just 1 lb. Clear second to well-treated rival at Plumpton this month; likely contender again here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (16/1 -100%) Casi Crudo |
16/1(-100%) | (11) Casi Crudo 16/1, Fair maiden on Flat for Charlie & Mark Johnston and off the mark over hurdles in juvenile at Market Rasen in December. Resumed with a good second in 2m Ludlow handicap so he's very much one to consider. Signed off with creditable second at Ludlow in May; major player if fully tuned up here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/1 -27%) Bubble Dubi |
7/1(-27%) | (3) Bubble Dubi 7/1, Let down by his jumping when third of 4 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (16f, soft, 11/10) on debut over fences 48 days ago. Quickly switches to hurdles and this fairly useful 2m scorer can't be ruled out. Flopped on recent chase debut but his spring hurdling form makes him of strong interest. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (9/1 -29%) Welsh Charger |
9/1(-29%) | (12) Welsh Charger 9/1, Fairly useful hurdler who landed the odds in 2m novice at Ludlow when last seen out in March. Goes handicapping on his return and he's one for the shortlist. 2-4 as a novice last season and could easily have more to offer in handicaps this term. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (9/1 +10%) Shetland Tony |
9/1(+10%) | (4) Shetland Tony 9/1, Drew a blank in 5 outings for Gordon Elliott but returned an improved performer for his new stable when easily taking 2m Stratford novice. Only tenth in Cheltenham handicap since but still can't be discounted. Wide-margin maiden winner on stable debut; safely held in warm Cheltenham handicap since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (22/1 +33%) Galahad Threepwood |
22/1(+33%) | (9) Galahad Threepwood 22/1, Fairly useful winner on the Flat for Mick Channon who opened his account over hurdles in 19.4f Doncaster handicap in March. Below-form seventh on his return at Sandown though so needs to get back on track. Well beaten on recent seasonal debut and has a lot more to prove than some of these. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (16/1 +0%) Planet Legend |
16/1(+0%) | (5) Planet Legend 16/1, C&D winner but off 7 months before below-form fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 37 days ago. Should strip fitter now. C&D winner last season and made encouraging reappearance last month; considered each-way. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (12/1 -140%) Hidden Beauty |
12/1(-140%) | (6) Hidden Beauty 12/1, Scored at Doncaster in January and signed off with a respectable second in novice hurdle at Taunton (16.5f) following month. Considered on handicap debut despite her absence. Doncaster novice winner in January; makes handicap debut after layoff but still unexposed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (6/1 +50%) Black Hawk Eagle |
6/1(+50%) | (7) Black Hawk Eagle 6/1, Fairly useful Flat/hurdles winner for Noel Meade who was in good form when last seen out in the summer. Merits consideration for his new yard. Better than ever on the Flat in Ireland this year; back hurding for new stable. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (8) (13/2 -8%) Allbetsoff |
13/2(-8%) | (8) Allbetsoff 13/2, Bagged his third win of the season in 6-runner claiming hurdle over C&D 20 days ago. This is tougher but he can't be dismissed in his current mood. Made all in recent C&D claimer but went up another 5lb for that. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (2) (66/1 -164%) Bread And Butter |
66/1(-164%) | (2) Bread And Butter 66/1, Twenty nine runs since his last win in 2020 and only eighth of 11 in handicap hurdle (50/1) at Newbury (16.3f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Hard to warm to. Second at Punchestown festival on stable debut but generally very disappointing since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (40/1 +0%) Jante Law |
40/1(+0%) | (1) Jante Law 40/1, Off 20 months before coming in only ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle (40/1) at Carlisle (17.2f, soft) 30 days ago. A fairly useful winner at his best but he has it to prove now. Seen only twice again since pair of Hexham novice wins in spring 2021; hard to weigh up. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
WELSH CHARGER is yet to finish out of the first two in four outings over timber, with both of his victories coming at Ludlow, and the five-year-old makes plenty of appeal on his handicap bow. Hidden Beauty won on her penultimate outing at Doncaster and is another strong contender, while Black Hawk Eagle is of considerable interest making his first start for Kerry Lee.
PARC D'AMOUR rates the pick of these weights put up only 1 lb for his excellent Plumpton second so looks the way to go in this competitive handicap. Bubble Dubi heads the list of dangers quickly reverted to this sphere after jumping poorly on his Uttoxeter chasing debut, although the returning pair Hidden Beauty and Welsh Charger merit respect too along with Kerry Lee's new recruit Black Hawk Eagle.
Last month's chasing debut didn't go to plan but BUBBLE DUBI (nap) remains open to further improvement on this quick return to hurdling

1st (3) (7/2 +30%) Mylesfromwicklow |
7/2(+30%) | (3) Mylesfromwicklow 7/2, Point winner who has finished runner-up on all 4 starts in maiden/novice hurdles around 2½m, including at Worcester on reappearance. Shaped like a non-stayer on handicap debut at Aintree since. Back down in trip now and type to make a better chaser. Disappointed on handicap hurdle debut but still looks interesting on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (7/4 +30%) William Cody |
7/4(+30%) | (6) William Cody 7/4, Did very well in his first season chasing last term, winning twice over this C&D. Good second upped in class at Wetherby on his return and strong chance of going one better. Dual C&D winner last season and ran big race in defeat on recent reappearance outing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (12/1 -50%) Family Business |
12/1(-50%) | (2) Family Business 12/1, Landed 2m handicap chase at Newbury in February and had a wind op before posting a good third back there next time. Well held next 2 starts 6 months apart, however. Change of headgear. Has good strike-rate over fences but needs today's headgear switch to perk him up. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (5/2 +55%) Maclaine |
5/2(+55%) | (1) Maclaine 5/2, Made most of a good opportunity to get off the mark in a Fontwell novice a year ago and good placed efforts last 2 starts in the spring. Off 7 months. Makes chase debut. First run for yard after leaving Oliver Sherwood. Creditable second on final hurdle start for Oliver Sherwood; makes stable/chase debut here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (6/1 +40%) Zestful Hope |
6/1(+40%) | (4) Zestful Hope 6/1, Fair hurdler who made a positive start in this sphere towards the end of last season. Likely to have needed both his runs this term and better expected now. Well beaten on both starts this season but ran well to a point; not ruled out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The hat-trick chasing TOM CREEN is going from strength-to-strength over fences and, given he ran a blinder when second on his only previous run over this course and distance, the gelding has a live chance off just 5lb higher than for his most recent Sedgefield victory. William Cody won over C&D last December and is feared most despite an 11lb higher mark, while chasing/stable debutant Maclaine is notable given he was low mileage over hurdles and has scope to do better in this discipline.
WILLIAM CODY is set for another good season judged on his fine second at Wetherby on his comeback 3 weeks ago and can enhance his excellent record around here. The thriving Tom Creen is the obvious threat, while Mylesfromwicklow is an interesting chasing debutant back down in trip.
Preference is for dual C&D winner WILLIAM CODY, who began this season with a very good run in defeat at Wetherby three weeks ago.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Dodger Long has bumper experience and is a notable contender on his first run for Syd Hosie. However, several of the newcomers appeal on paper, with the Flat-bred COMPOSITE capturing the imagination on his debut run for George Boughey. A half-brother to Cameraman, a winner over 1m6f in the UAE, the selection is introduced at a modest level and could have an edge in a race where the emphasis will be on speed. Dirty Den and Reteti are also considered.
COMPOSITE was bought cheaply from Juddmonte and picked up by an adept Flat trainer, so he's worth chancing on debut, particularly if the market speaks in his favour. Dirty Den is another notable newcomer and Dodger Long sets the standard of those with experience.
There's not a lot to go on. COMPOSITE is a rare bumper runner for his good Flat yard and he might be the one.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.
