6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(2) Chosen Port 6.5/1, Fair bumper performer who was pulled up after losing her action approaching the fourth (found to be lame on left hind) on her Huntingdon hurdling debut a year ago. Clearly capable of better.

12:15 Leicester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(7) Apple Rock 1.25/1, Slipped in weights last term and returned with a career best victory in a 7-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, soft) 9 days ago. The one to beat racing from same mark here.

22
22/1(+12%)
(8) Iron Horse 22/1, Presumably had his problems to be so lightly raced for his age, though was runner-up in a C&D event last season. Pulled up again on his latest outing, though, and others have more solid profiles.
2
3rd (2) (1.88/1 +46%) Kotmask
1.88
1.88/1(+46%)
(2) Kotmask 1.88/1, Landed back-to-back juvenile events at Fontwell and Huntingdon last term. Shaped as if retaining all ability when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (15.7f, good) 33 days ago and he could make more impact in this lower grade.
5
4th (5) (8/1 -7%) Ballintubber Boy
8
8/1(-7%)
(5) Ballintubber Boy 8/1, Clumsy sort overcame typical jumping errors to score at Stratford in October and ran respectably enough from this mark when sixth at Ludlow last month. Bit more required in this company with visor applied first time.
6
5th (6) (12/1 -60%) Sullivan's Brow
12
12/1(-60%)
(6) Sullivan's Brow 12/1, Irish point winner gained a maiden success under Rules when taking a 2m novice hurdle at Uttoxeter in January. Underperformed on handicap debut when last seen but is bred to improve for this trip.
4
6th (4) (25/1 -56%) Luckofthedraw
25
25/1(-56%)
(4) Luckofthedraw 25/1, Better known as a chaser nowadays, scoring twice over 20f in that sphere last year. Has won fresh in the past but the combination of the 8-month absence and lack of recent hurdling promise means others are preferred.
3
|PU| (3) (11/1 -57%) Shalakar
11
11/1(-57%)
(3) Shalakar 11/1, Has only made the track once in nearly 4 years and didn't go with a great deal of promise on that outing. 13 lb lower in the weights than for last hurdles start but has to prove he retains ability.
1

66
66/1(-371%)
(1) Imac Wood 66/1, Dual chase winner in France, scoring in 6-runner claiming event at Fontainebleau (17.9f, soft, 15/10) when last seen 8 months ago. First run for yard after leaving Mlle D. Mele. No chances taken with opening mark on handicap hurdle debut.

(4) Clear On Top 1.62/1, Fair form over fences when second around 3m at Huntingdon and Uttoxeter in May/June. Below par fifth of 9 in handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f) 35 days ago. Worth another chance.

3
3/1(+14%)
(3) On The Bandwagon 3/1, No easy ride and he also arrives well below par, fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Lingfield (23f) 23 days ago. Back over fences with something to prove.
2
3rd (2) (1.5/1 -20%) Faitque De L'Isle
1.5
1.5/1(-20%)
(2) Faitque De L'Isle 1.5/1, Fair form over fences in France in 2020 and he got off the mark for current yard at Ffos Las (23.8f) in October. Travelled well long way when pulled up on soft ground in handicap at Newcastle (23.4f) 14 days ago and sort to bounce back under these less testing conditions.
1
4th (1) (14/1 -75%) Tommy Tracey
14
14/1(-75%)
(1) Tommy Tracey 14/1, Runner-up in Irish point and showed fair level of ability when runner-up in an Ascot maiden hurdle in March. However, he offered little on his chasing debut when pulled up in handicap at Kempton (20.5f) 24 days ago and cheekpieces are reached for now.

13:17 Leicester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(8) Mount Tempest 4.5/1, Walk In The Park gelding who showed much more than on his sole outing in bumpers when sixth of 14 on his Chepstow hurdling debut (19.4f) 29 days ago, no extra final 1f after making quite a promising move early in the straight. Drop in trip looks a good move and he's the type to improve.
5
2nd (5) (0.62/1 +44%) Georges Saint
0.62
0.62/1(+44%)
(5) Georges Saint 0.62/1, Dual chase winner in the mud in France who made an encouraging yard debut when third at Haydock (15.6f) in December. Failed to build on that promise at Exeter and Sandown but improved on the back of a breathing op/8 months off when second in 19.6f handicap at Bangor 22 days ago. Leading claims.
7
3rd (7) (25/1 -525%) Imperial Bede
25
25/1(-525%)
(7) Imperial Bede 25/1, Successful on the second of 3 bumper starts in France but ran no sort of race on his British debut in Aintree Grade 2 on final outing. Still early days though and could get back on track now hurdling.
4
4th (4) (11/1 -38%) General Medrano
11
11/1(-38%)
(4) General Medrano 11/1, Showed promise both starts in bumpers and did the same sent hurdling when eighth of 15 in 2m novice at Chepstow 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort after making headway 2 out. That form is working out well and he shouldn't be underestimated with improvement likely.
1
5th (1) (200/1 +0%) Adamhill
200
200/1(+0%)
(1) Adamhill 200/1, Pulled up both starts between the flags and little encouragement in 3 bumpers/Uttoxeter maiden hurdle under Rules.

9
9/1(+10%)

7th (3) (10/1 +64%) Downsman
10
10/1(+64%)
(3) Downsman 10/1, Fairly useful on Flat, probably stays 1¾m, failed to build on previous promise last time. Market perhaps best guide to expectations now hurdling.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(3) Dollar Bae 1.25/1, Easy winner of sole point and followed up in a Wincanton bumper on Rules debut. Has made a bright start over hurdles, placed in mares' events at Warwick and Ludlow, bumping into a classy rival last time. Open to further improvement starting out in handicaps from generous mark and leading claims.

2nd (5) (25/1 -14%) Born To Please
25
25/1(-14%)
(5) Born To Please 25/1, Placed 3 times over hurdles in 2020/21, and again at Uttoxeter in March from 4 lb higher mark. Well beaten on the level the last twice 5 months apart, though.

22
22/1(+21%)
(2) Toughasoldboots 22/1, 4-y-o who landed small-field mares' maiden hurdle on Rules debut at Huntingdon (19.6f) in May. Not in anything like that form since, including on handicap debut 137 days ago. Needs a revival.
4
4th (4) (8/1 -60%) Somewhat Cloudy
8
8/1(-60%)
(4) Somewhat Cloudy 8/1, Won thin mares' maiden hurdle at Huntingdon last season and made an encouraging return in Carlisle handicap, splitting subsequent winners. Down 2 lb and could feature back over 2m.

12
12/1(-71%)
(1) Angels Landing 12/1, Fair 11f winner on the level who showed plenty over hurdles last term, placed off this mark in a Ludlow handicap that worked out well in March. Folded tamely in Flat handicap 10 weeks ago but dangerous to dismiss here.

4.5/1(+44%)
(8) Encashment 4.5/1, Maiden handicap hurdler. Has failed to complete when backed at Southwell twice in recent weeks, unseating third latest.

|PU| (6) (25/1 +11%) Oseleta
25
25/1(+11%)
(6) Oseleta 25/1, Well held in novice hurdles, off 5 months prior to latest start. Plenty to find now handicapping and might want further.
LTO Selection:
14:17 Leicester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(3) Obey The Rules 2.75/1, Scored at Market Rasen in August and placed on each of his 4 subsequent starts, for all last month's effort at Musselburgh was a backward step in form terms. Usual cheekpieces back on. Could be the safest option.

2nd (4) (1.1/1 +45%) Legendary Rhythm
1.1
1.1/1(+45%)
(4) Legendary Rhythm 1.1/1, Stand out effort over fences when third over C&D in February. Shaped as if better for the run back over hurdles after 6 months off when seventh at Uttoxeter in October but disappointing back there 3 weeks later. Cheekpieces on returned to the larger obstacles.
5
3rd (5) (3.5/1 +71%) Uncle O
3.5
3.5/1(+71%)
(5) Uncle O 3.5/1, Low-grade performer but ran pretty close to form when third of 7 at Southwell on Tuesday.

4th (2) (8/1 +20%) Rizzardo
8
8/1(+20%)
(2) Rizzardo 8/1, Now 10 lb below his last winning mark, gained at Fontwell a year ago. Should strip fitter with last month's return under his belt but he isn't one for maximum faith.
LTO Selection:
14:47 Leicester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Colonial Empire 1.4/1, Bumper winner who has gradually found his feet over hurdles, runner-up in a brace of handicaps this autumn. Can remain competitive.

0.91
0.91/1(+17%)
(1) Ramo 0.91/1, Fair form when 2½ lengths second of 9 in 4-y-o event at Strasbourg on debut 12 months ago, staying on well. Left A. Boisbrunet and not at that level on November's stable debut but he's fancied to step up on that. Could be well treated.
5
4th (5) (11/1 +0%) King Of Quinta
11
11/1(+0%)
(5) King Of Quinta 11/1, Minor promise only so far but he's in good hands and handicaps are at least more suitable.

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.
