1st (5) (3/1 -9%) Overworkdunderpaid |
3/1(-9%) | (5) Overworkdunderpaid 3/1, Made it 2-3 over fences for new yard when landing handicap chase at Warwick (20f) 15 days ago. Up another 8 lb but he's still weighted to go in again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (14/1 -40%) Top And Drop |
14/1(-40%) | (4) Top And Drop 14/1, Fairly useful chaser though she was well below par on return in 3m2f Uttoxeter handicap, folding 3 out. Since had breathing op so no forlorn hope for good yard. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (2.5/1 +25%) Newberry New |
2.5/1(+25%) | (8) Newberry New 2.5/1, Bounce back to form when taking 2m3f handicap chase at Catterick (13/2) 13 days ago. Proven over this longer trip too so he can make presence felt despite 9 lb hike. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (16/1 -100%) Dusky Lark |
16/1(-100%) | (3) Dusky Lark 16/1, Without a victory since 2017 but posted best effort this term when fourth of 10 in handicap chase (22/1) at Newbury (23.4f, heavy) 29 days ago. Others still more persuasive though. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (1.75/1 +36%) Muckamore |
1.75/1(+36%) | (1) Muckamore 1.75/1, Landed Irish point before showing fairly useful winning form over hurdles. Yet to match that form in two runs over fences but remains with potential so not ruled out after a wind op. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (12/1 -71%) Rococo River |
12/1(-71%) | (6) Rococo River 12/1, Still to win over fences, but he recorded good second of 6 in 19f handicap chase at Exeter in October. Much respected back from a break off unchanged mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (40/1 +39%) Final List |
40/1(+39%) | (7) Final List 40/1, Sold cheaply after losing his way for Gordon Elliott and well beaten all 4 starts for current yard. Easy to look elsewhere. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (50/1 -150%) Gold Opera |
50/1(-150%) | (2) Gold Opera 50/1, Winless for Keith Dalgleish and off track since good second in 2m5f handicap chase at Haydock 13 months ago. Lots to prove on comeback for new yard. |

6/1(-20%) | (8) Bignorm 6/1, Maiden hurdler/chaser who posted best effort over fences when third of 10 in heavy-ground Southwell handicap 67 days ago. Needs considering off unchanged mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

2.25/1(+32%) | (2) Friary Land 2.25/1, Ex-Irish gelding has shown steadily progressive form over hurdles for Olly Murphy, fourth of 18 in 3m Doncaster handicap last time. Not without interest sent chasing and well worth a market check. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (11/1 +31%) Watar Allstar |
11/1(+31%) | (5) Watar Allstar 11/1, Modest maiden hurdler/chaser but not easiest to catch right and only twelfth at Warwick last time. On good mark if back on song. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

6/1(-118%) | (9) Joey Steel 6/1, Poor and temperamental maiden. Not disgraced when second in 2m5f Fakenham handicap last time. Cheekpieces back on but others still appeal more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (7/1 -17%) Gallic Geordie |
7/1(-17%) | (4) Gallic Geordie 7/1, 33/1 and first form when making a winning chase debut at Lingfield (2m) in December. Pulled up at Ffos Las only run since so he needs to bounce back. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (16/1 +43%) Ardbruce |

50/1(-100%) | (7) Just In A Muddle 50/1, Modest maiden hurdler for Gary Moore. Offered little after 11 months off on yard debut but switch to chasing could see him step forward. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (50/1 +0%) Treacys Jim |
50/1(+0%) | (6) Treacys Jim 50/1, Yet to show any form in three 2m runs over hurdles. Tries chasing now with lots to prove. |

3.33/1(-48%) | (4) En Coeur 3.33/1, Back to form when runner-up at Plumpton in January and went one better there later that month. First 2 came clear that day so 6 lb rise seems fair. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (5.5/1 -120%) Goldencard |
5.5/1(-120%) | (2) Goldencard 5.5/1, Not as good as he was but mark reflects that and arrives on the back of good runner-up efforts at Fakenham (twice) and Catterick. Sure to go well again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

6.5/1(-8%) | (1) Detatched 6.5/1, Irish-point winner who gained first hurdling success at Uttoxeter. Not in same form next 2 starts but remains unexposed back over fences. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

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.
