17:00 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Prediction: 1st: 2.25/1 (1) TOTNES 2nd: 8.5/1 (5) BUTTERFLY EFFECT 3rd: 9/1 (6) CLIMATE PRECEDENT

Totnes was a disappointing favourite on her first start in a handicap when fifth at Wolverhampton, but she is likely to have more to come stepping up to a mile. However, she could come out second best to CLIMATE PRECEDENT, who was well clear of the third when filling the runner-up spot at the same venue over this trip on his latest start. The son of Ulysses was raised 4lb for that effort but that might not be enough to prevent him from going one better. Phenomenon makes his handicap debut and merits consideration.

TOTNES looked a filly on the up until only fifth at Wolverhampton last time but she didn't enjoy the rub of the green there and can bounce back in style off a still handy-looking mark. Wolverhampton-second Climate Precedent can pose the chief threat to Andrew Balding's filly ahead of Butterfly Effect, who could also have a say if first-time blinkers have the desired effect.

Things didn't work out for CLIMATE PRECEDENT when returned to a similar trip to today's in April but he looks capable of better yet.

17:35 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, the predicted order of finish is: 1. 3.5/1 (4) COVERT MISSION 2. 3/1 (7) HAVANA GOLDRUSH 3. 8/1 (6) HUL AH BAH LOO

LAFAN scored impressively at Wolverhampton last time over an extended 1m1f and, even though he has been put up 8lb for that success, he could still be feasibly treated. A fellow last-time-out winner Covert Mission warrants plenty of respect, as he recorded that victory over C&D and should remain competitive off 3lb higher. Havana Goldrush could have a say if transferring his recent turf form to the all-weather.

HUL AH BAH LOO ran another solid race and likely would have been suited by a stronger gallop when third behind Covert Mission over C&D recently and he could be worth chancing to come out on top on this occasion. Lafan, who justified good support to score at Wolverhampton recently, is also firmly in the mix.

Covert Mission is respected but it's easy to prefer LAFAN (nap) who is still well treated despite a wide-margin Wolverhampton win.

18:05 Lingfield Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 1.25/1 (6) BURABACK seems to be the strongest contender. They have performed well in recent races and have won over the course and distance before. They are also operating below their last winning mark and have cheekpieces on. 8.5/1 (5) PORFIN and 2.75/1 (4) REVOLUTIONARY MAN could potentially finish in 2nd and 3rd place, respectively, as they have had decent performances in their recent races and have won over the course and distance before.

REVOLUTIONARY MAN kept on well into second last time at Wolverhampton and the son of Exceed and Excel was raised just 1lb for that display. With Billy Loughnane booked to claim 3lb, he looks to hold every chance of recording his fifth career success. The main danger could be Buraback, who is running off the same mark as when runner-up over C&D recently and tries first-time cheekpieces, while Lilkian is noted too.

BURABACK ran his best race yet since joining Mick Appleby when second in a C&D handicap 8 days ago and, operating 3 lb below his last winning mark, he could well be the answer here. Lilkian and Revolutionary Man head up the dangers.

Marginal preference is for REVOLUTIONARY MAN but Buraback (second choice) is also well treated now.

18:35 Lingfield Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, the horses that have a higher chance of finishing in the top three are: 1. 3/1 (2) MELLYS FLYER 2. 4.5/1 (3) DAYMAN 3. 5/1 (5) MAMILLIUS

Bobby On The Beat likes it around here and must be respected having recorded a comfortable C&D success on his latest outing, but MELLYS FLYER could prove too strong. George Scott's charge went up 4lb in the ratings for his recent Wolverhampton success, although Benoit De La Sayette's 3lb claim negates the majority of that and it would be no surprise were he to follow up. Recon Mission could have a say, while Mamillius is not without a chance either.

RECON MISSION went close in a higher grade at Epsom on last week's reappearance and may be capable of going one better off the same mark. Last month's Wolverhampton scorer Mellys Flyer is feared most with Benoit de la Sayette taking a handy 3 lb off. Dayman is on a winning mark and needs keeping an eye on in the betting on his first outing for the in-form Dominic Ffrench Davis stable.

Impeach has his optimum conditions but the veteran MAMILLIUS looked ready to strike when finishing third here last week.

19:05 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

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

1st: 3/1 (4) BATTLE POINT 2nd: 1.63/1 (3) THEREHEGOES 3rd: 5.5/1 (2) GRANDFATHER TOM

THEREHEGOES (second) is 2lb well in having been narrowly denied by Perfect Symphony here eight days ago and, with the latter now competing under a 4lb penalty, it would be no surprise were he to reverse that form. A winner over C&D last month, Battle Point can mount another serious challenge, while Grandfather Tom, who drops back into 0-60 company, cannot be ruled out either.

THEREHEGOES went close over C&D last week and can go one better off the same mark. Grandfather Tom could strip fitter with last month's reappearance behind him and is a potentially dangerous opponent now dropping to a 0-60 for the first time. Last-time-out C&D scorer Battle Point is also unlikely to be far away.

Battle Point should give it another good go from stall 1 but GRANDFATHER TOM can capitalise on his career-low mark.

19:35 Lingfield Stakes (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

1st: 1.25/1 (3) EDGE OF EMBER 2nd: 5.5/1 (1) FLOWER OF DUBAI 3rd: 2.75/1 (6) GRAND PROVIDENCE

The key to this race looks to be last month's clash between Flower Of Dubai (first) and GRAND PROVIDENCE (third) at Kempton. Andrew Balding's filly is 7lb better off here though and is duly taken to overturn that form with the extra furlong to suit. Runner-up on both career outings, Edge Of Ember can also have a say in proceedings.

EDGE OF EMBER has shaped well when runner-up on his first 2 outings and can make it third time lucky now stepping up to 1½m for the first time. Grand Providence was 1½ lengths behind the reopposing Flower of Dubai at Kempton but a 7 lb swing in the weights looks enough for her to turn the tables and she can give the selection most to think about.

Dual silver medallist EDGE OF EMBER sets the form standard. Grand Providence and Flower Of Dubai are open to progress.

20:05 Lingfield Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 2/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT seems like the leading player and has the potential for better again. Therefore, it's predicted that 2/1 (1) SOVEREIGN SPIRIT will finish in 1st place. 0.73/1 (2) PLEDGEOFALLEGIANCE also has shown definite ability and is a likely improver, hence predicted to finish in 2nd place. For 3rd place, 12/1 (3) FISHING RIGHTS could be a contender as he is likely to do better now he's qualified for a mark and upped in trip, and is bred to be suited by this longer trip.

SOVEREIGN SPIRIT got off the mark in stylish fashion over C&D last week and a 6lb penalty for that win may not be enough to stop him going in again. This will only be the three-year-old's seventh career outing and he gets the vote ahead of handicap-debutant Pledgeofallegiance and Fishing Rights, who has plenty of potential on his first try at this distance.

SOVEREIGN SPIRT won nicely over C&D last week and is the percentage call with further improvement a possibility, although a strong market move for Sir Mark Prescott handicap newcomer Pledgeofallegiance would put a slightly different slant of things. Fishing Rights is another who could have more to offer now switching to handicaps.

Last week's C&D winner SOVEREIGN SPIRIT has the strongest form claims as things stand. Pledgeofallegiance is feared most.

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.

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.
