(7) Wiesaam 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden. 2/1 and blinkered for 1st time, second of 7 in nursery at Newcastle (7.1f) 21 days ago, clear of rest. Could do better again, so makes obvious appeal.
Soft ground is a worry but he was clear of the third when second on handicap debut.

13:53 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Turned out again quickly after a comfortable success at Bath last week, EMPORESS looks more than capable of following up under a 6lb penalty, with Oisin Murphy taking over in the saddle. Narrowly denied on his handicap debut over 7f at Newcastle, Wiesaam could go close on the drop in trip, while similar comments apply to Specified, who ran a career best when runner-up at Chelmsford last time out.

EMPORESS moved through smoothly to land a soft-ground nursery at Bath with an improved performance and, if she's in the same form, she could have enough to defy a penalty at the likely expense of Wiesaam, who looked well handicapped at Newcastle last time. Specified is another one to consider.

A few with chances but EMPORESS is the one proven in the conditions and she had a nice bit in hand last week at Bath.

Upped to 7f and cheekpieces are enlisted, for what should be a much more realistic chance.

There's been some improvement over her first three starts, the latest over C&D on soft.

Gelded and up in trip for nursery debut; a first competitive show should not be ruled out.

Beaten about 4l when hooded in her two nurseries (7f on good to soft); hampered on latest.

14:23 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A promising third when keeping on from off the pace at Salisbury last time out, PAY ATTENTION should be able to build on that effort. Tom Ward's charge gets the vote ahead of Summer Of Light, who was an eye-catcher at Bath last week when staying on well for third over a shorter trip. Connie's Way hasn't shown much since a creditable debut at Hamilton in August, but she cannot be ruled out either.

PAY ATTENTION took a while to hit full stride but was noted doing his best work at the finish when third on nursery debut at Salisbury 25 days ago. He could well be sharper here given that was his first start for 9 weeks and he earns the vote again partnered by Rossa Ryan. Tiempo Alegre and Summer of Light are others to consider.

Not much imagination is required to give nearly all of these a chance but preference is for PAY ATTENTION from Unforgetable Belle.

14:53 Leicester Maiden (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Two-year-olds usually know their job first time out for the Charlie Johnston yard, and ROSSO LEVANTO could be primed to strike being a half-sister to Adjuvant, who himself scored on debut. The daughter of Waldgeist is bred to improve over further, but she can get the better of fellow newcomer Luisa, whose dam was a multiple Group 1 winner. Miss Lalita is the pick of those with experience.

MISS LALITA probably has a bigger performance in her and this isn't a strong race for the grade, though newcomers Rosso Levanto and Luisa would need taking very seriously if the money came for either.

No compelling positive pointers. The market moves need a very close check but ROSSO LEVANTO is the selection ahead of Latona.

(11) La La Lucrative 9/1, Runner-up in a pair of 6f handicaps in May but has largely struggled since, below form when fifth of 9 in handicap at Pontefract (6f) 3 weeks ago. Return to this forecast slower surface may help with a hood refitted.

Exposed sprinter; dual C&D winner; soft ground suits; quite interesting in new headgear.

15:23 Leicester Handicap (Class 5) 6f  Race Class Flow

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

SOUNDS OF SPRING only found one too good when trying to follow up his Ffos Las win two starts ago at Carlisle last time. A reproduction of either of those efforts would give him a big chance here. The unexposed Dancing Sapphire has to be of some interest on her handicap debut, while similar comments apply to Idle Assembly. Others to note are Papabella and Silent Flame.

Having landed a gamble on his penultimate start, SOUNDS OF SPRING ran another solid race when runner-up at Carlisle (5.8f) 4 weeks ago. Remaining with handicapping scope on old form, he looks a live player again. Silent Flame has been resurgent since blinkers went on and she's a threat if leaving her latest run behind. Recent C&D winner Papabella and Shark Two One are others to consider in a wide-open affair.

It could be worth taking a chance on C&D winner SPIRIT OF BREEZE returning to form now back at 6f. Papabella is next best.

15:53 Leicester Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

HEDGE FUND bounced back to form when second off this mark over 5f at Wolverhampton 11 days ago and that form gives him a big chance here. The Ridler and Makanah are both more than capable of going well in a race of this nature but neither are the most prolific of winners these day. Stone Circle disappointed last time but is a player based on his C&D second the time before.

In an open-looking event, preference is for THE RIDLER, who has been given a chance by the handicapper and arrives in good form. Hedge Fund and Makanah can also make their presence felt.

Today's expected return to slow ground is a likely plus for course winner CYPRIOT DIASPORA (nap), who runs off her last winning mark.

16:25 Leicester Handicap (Class 3) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

STRESSFREE ran out a cosy winner of a Chester handicap over 1m2f last month and, judging by the style of that victory, a 4lb rise may underestimate him. The unexposed Galyx wasn't disgraced when finishing fourth on his handicap debut over this trip at Newbury last time and he warrants respect. The Epsom winner Lord Melbourne completes the shortlist, although this step back in trip leaves him with a question to answer.

STRESSFREE scored with plenty up his sleeve at Chester last month and hasn't been harshly treated by the handicapper for that success. He makes plenty of appeal. Lord Melbourne and Kotari are feared most.

This looks highly competitive, with most of them having proved themselves in the mud. AVIEMORE is tipped ahead of Galyx.

17:00 Leicester Handicap (Class 6) 7f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

TEMPER TRAP lost little in defeat when a close-up second over a mile at Musselburgh six days ago, and he gets the vote to atone for that near-miss off the same mark. Ratafia endured a luckless passage when finishing down the field over 7f at Redcar last month, and it would be no surprise if he were to bounce back to form. Ballsbridge completes the shortlist.

RATAFIA has already scored twice this term and finished with running left when not getting the breaks at Redcar last time. He can add another victory to his tally. Temper Trap and King of Speed should also go well.

A chance is taken that RATAFIA can dodge the sort of traffic problems he met at Redcar. Ballsbridge and Temper Trap are next.

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.
