0.8/1(+20%)

The Questioner
50
50/1(-100%)
(8) The Questioner 50/1, Placed on sole outing in points and shaped like a stayer in a Sedgefield bumper on Rules debut earlier in the month, so this much longer trip will suit now hurdling.

Azof Des Mottes
80
80/1(-220%)
(10) Azof Des Mottes 80/1, Placed both completed starts in points and showed more on second start over hurdles at Carlisle 17 days ago, but is probably one for handicaps after this.

125/1(-56%)
(4) Master Alan 125/1, From a family which has produced winners for this yard, but has made no impact in pair of novice hurdles 10 months apart (brought down on latest).

Red Tornado
100
100/1(-100%)
(3) Red Tornado 100/1, Not had much racing in recent years and well beaten last 2 starts on the Flat 6 months apart. Ground probably going to be soft enough for him on first go over hurdles for a while. Others preferred.
7

Grand Voyage
2.25
2.25/1(+32%)
(7) Grand Voyage 2.25/1, Shaping up nicely at Kelso and off the mark in good style in C&D handicap in the mud 3 weeks ago, readily coming clear. Third won on Sunday and he has more to offer even after an 11 lb rise.
9

Skipthescales

(9) Skipthescales 14/1, Long time since he last won and failed to build on an encouraging run here when disappointing at Wetherby (well backed) last time. Others preferred.

Milvale
9
9/1(+10%)
(8) Milvale 9/1, Only win to date came in C&D handicap in February 2020 but he should have come on for his Carlisle return 7 weeks ago and could be a player if taking well to the cheekpieces.
12
4th (12) Duty Calls (8.5/1 -21%)
Duty Calls
8.5
8.5/1(-21%)
(12) Duty Calls 8.5/1, Well backed and took a step forward from his return when second over 2m here on handicap debut 24 days ago. Much longer trip will suit and he's in with a shout.
10
5th (10) Kaizer (7/1 -40%)
Kaizer
7
7/1(-40%)
(10) Kaizer 7/1, Course winner back below last successful mark and was shaping up well until taking a spill 2 out at Musselburgh last time. Cheekpieces go on and he's not discounted.
13

Lissen To The Lady
50
50/1(-52%)
(13) Lissen To The Lady 50/1, Hit the target at Carlisle and at this track in the spring and ticking over of late. Will find easier opportunities.

Mayo Star
5.5
5.5/1(-10%)
(5) Mayo Star 5.5/1, Hasn't stood much racing but he's a dual winner in this sphere and ran well at Ayr last time. Couple of good efforts to his name at this track too and he's one to consider back up in trip.
11
8th (11) Ryedale Racer (22/1 -10%)
Ryedale Racer
22
22/1(-10%)
(11) Ryedale Racer 22/1, Returned to form from out of the blue when taking C&D handicap at 80/1 in February but little impact in 3 runs since. Headgear back on. Career-low mark.

Happy Hollow
5
5/1(+9%)
(4) Happy Hollow 5/1, Good efforts since landing Uttoxeter maiden hurdle over this sort of trip in February, no match for all-the-way winner at Bangor 19 days ago. Worth a look.
2
|PU| (2) Bordeaux Bill (18/1 +10%)
Bordeaux Bill
18
18/1(+10%)
(2) Bordeaux Bill 18/1, Enjoyed a productive 2019, signing off with success in 9-runner Carlisle handicap (20f). Might have needed his 2 runs back this year after 25 months off and C&D winner could show more now.

Slanelough
5.5
5.5/1(-57%)
(2) Slanelough 5.5/1, Back-to-back winner at around 2m during the spring and looked as good as ever when hitting the frame in trio of small-field contests more recently. Should go well again.
3
1st (3) Cedar Hill (2.5/1 +38%)
Cedar Hill
2.5
2.5/1(+38%)
(3) Cedar Hill 2.5/1, Three-time winner over C&D last term who has run with credit on each of his last 3 starts, beaten by a thriving mare in a match at Wetherby (15f) in November. Interesting back here from 2 lb lower.
5
2nd (5) Lucky Flight (4.5/1 +63%)
Lucky Flight
4.5
4.5/1(+63%)
(5) Lucky Flight 4.5/1, Dual hurdles winner who isn't the easiest to predict, let down by his jumping on return from 3 months off at Carlisle (2m) in October. Mark has eased at least and he's gone well here previously.
7

Monsieur Co
4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(7) Monsieur Co 4.5/1, Has struggled since his latest success, in this 12 months ago, but likely the run was needed after 5 months off over hurdles at Musselburgh and he's one to keep an eye on in the betting.
1
4th (1) The King Of May (3.5/1 +42%)
The King Of May
3.5
3.5/1(+42%)
(1) The King Of May 3.5/1, Dual 2m chase winner who probably needed the run after 6 months off when last of 6 in 2m handicap at Musselburgh last time. No forlorn hope re-united with Brian Hughes/following wind op now.
6
5th (6) Treshnish (5.5/1 -57%)
Treshnish
5.5
5.5/1(-57%)
(6) Treshnish 5.5/1, Won twice at Hexham in the spring and dispelled pair of lesser efforts when going in again at that venue 3 weeks ago, jumping on last and asserting final 100 yds. Player if backing that up.
4
|PU| (4) Zolfo (12/1 -33%)
Zolfo
12
12/1(-33%)
(4) Zolfo 12/1, Had a very productive 2019/20, winning 5 times over fences, but he's yet to match that level since, off 6 months before eighth of 11 in handicap at Bangor last month. More required now.

Cooper's Cross
8
8/1(-7%)
(6) Cooper's Cross 8/1, Stepped up on his chase debut when landing a 19.3f Sedgefield handicap by a neck from Baron De Midleton (Sounds Russian back in fourth) last month. Decent effort in defeat next time, but more needed.
7
(7) En Meme Temps (12/1 -20%)
En Meme Temps
12
12/1(-20%)
(7) En Meme Temps 12/1, Just one win from 16 starts over hurdles and while he left his chase debut effort behind when going close at Ayr (20.5f) last time, others make greater appeal on this occasion.
4
1st (4) Sounds Russian (2.25/1 +36%)
Sounds Russian
2.25
2.25/1(+36%)
(4) Sounds Russian 2.25/1, Fair form when runner-up all 3 starts over hurdles and Sedgefield chase debut was promising. Built on that when beating a subsequent winner over 21f there this month and he's armed with potential.
9
2nd (9) Uptown Harry (28/1 +44%)
Uptown Harry
28
28/1(+44%)
(9) Uptown Harry 28/1, Opened his account over fences at Perth (23.8f) in May, but hasn't shown much in a couple of appearances since returning to action last month.
1

Overcourt
5.5
5.5/1(-38%)
(1) Overcourt 5.5/1, Dual hurdles winner who has found just one too good on both chase starts to date, including when touched off by Breaking The Ice on return here (23.4f) this month. 3 lb better off with that rival now.
11
4th (11) Breaking The Ice (6.5/1 -30%)
Breaking The Ice
6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(11) Breaking The Ice 6.5/1, Enjoying a splendid first season over fences, producing another personal best when narrowly outpointing Overcourt here last time. However, up another 5 lb and this demands an even bigger performance.
2
5th (2) Deluxe Range (20/1 +20%)
Deluxe Range
20
20/1(+20%)
(2) Deluxe Range 20/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner last season, but inauspicious start over fences on return at Wetherby in October and Overcourt appears to be the stable first-string.
10
6th (10) Ladronne (3.5/1 +50%)
Ladronne
3.5
3.5/1(+50%)
(10) Ladronne 3.5/1, Fair winning hurdler who, on the back of another wind op, made it sixth time lucky over fences when scoring at Wetherby (19.4f). He was rather fortunate on that occasion, though, and has gone up 5 lb.
8
7th (8) Kalaharry (14/1 -17%)
Kalaharry
14
14/1(-17%)
(8) Kalaharry 14/1, Fortunate to take 2m Hexham handicap chase in May, but the handicapper's reaction reflects that and he has performed well in 2 of his 3 subsequent starts. Live each-way contender.
12
|F| (12) Niceandeasy (8/1 +6%)
Niceandeasy
8
8/1(+6%)
(12) Niceandeasy 8/1, Won twice over hurdles during 2017/18 campaign. Creditable efforts in handicaps at around 3m at Carlisle and Haydock since returning from a lengthy absence, but needs more now switched to fences.
3
|PU| (3) Baron De Midleton (12/1 +14%)
Baron De Midleton
12
12/1(+14%)
(3) Baron De Midleton 12/1, Twice a winner over hurdles and runner-up on 6 occasions from 10 starts in this sphere. However, still seeking his first taste of success in the chase arena and others possess greater potential here.

Millarville
6.5

Topkapi Star
12

(1) Roxanya 12/1, Placed on both her completed starts over hurdles. Opening handicap mark not obviously generous but she does have the potential for better as a lightly-raced sort.

Calliope
8.5

Gamesters Icon
5.5

(4) Gamesters Icon 5.5/1, Fair Flat winner who has run to a similar level over hurdles. Respectable fifth of 14 over 2m at Newcastle under young amateur latest and she's one to consider with Henry Brooke back on board.

Lady Villanelle
6.5

(3) Lady Villanelle 6.5/1, Made a winning hurdling bow at Newcastle last November. Lightly raced since but her reappearance fifth at Carlisle was respectable and she may strip fitter for the run.

Dolly Dancer

(3) Prince Dundee 2.75/1, Bagged his third win at Hexham in May and arrives in fine heart, finishing runner-up for the second start in a row in a stamina-sapping contest at Hexham 6 weeks ago. Up 3 lb for that but can figure.

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.
