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

A taking winner at Yarmouth last time out on just his third run for new connections, SIR JOSEPH SWAN is open to further improvement going back up in trip and a 3lb rise for that success may not be enough to stop him from following up. Runner-up on three of his last four starts, Iconic Mover can give him the most to think about, while Chelmsford runner-up Team Endeavour is noted too.

A chance is taken on ALL ABOUT ALICE, who was a shade below par on turf here last time but shaped well at Leicester prior to that and is on a competitive mark. Alioski has performed with credit all 3 starts since returning from a break in June (the latest over hurdles) and he is second choice ahead of Fighting Poet. Though 0-16, Iconic Mover has been knocking on the door this year and should make his presence felt, too.

It is difficult to look past BELO HORIZONTE, who arrives on the back of a pair of easy successes at Yarmouth and on the turf track here recently. A career-high mark of 57 will make life tougher, but he should have too much for Thawg, who is capable but has yet to put it all together at handicap level. Edmund Ironside and Kodi Noir can also have a say in proceedings.

BELO HORIZONTE has been going the right way since the cheekpieces went on, scoring easily on turf at this venue 9 days ago, and he can land the hat-trick as he makes his handicap debut. Kodi Noir has returned to form on his last 2 starts and could be the main danger, ahead of Edmund Ironside.

Belo Horizonte is opposed with HAZEL BEAR, who is well treated on her winter qualifying runs and shaped quite well last month.

15:52 Lingfield Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow

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

BRIAR ROSE caught the eye on her debut at Windsor recently, when not getting the clearest of runs about a furlong from home before running on late to grab fifth. With improvement expected on that effort, Ed Dunlop's charge can get off the mark at the main expense of Belle Flora and well-bred newcomer Queen's Music. Aljadel and Gregorina are capable of being in the mix too.

While a couple of these have already shown a fair level of ability, QUEEN'S MUSIC certainly wouldn't need to be out of the ordinary to make a winning debut. Armed with a good pedigree and Oisin Murphy in the hot-seat, the hint should be taken if the market speaks in her favour. Of those with experience, Briar Rose, who shaped with promise on her recent introduction at Windsor, is feared most ahead of Belle Flora. Alwedad and Jazzy Angel both need a second look in the betting.

Windsor fifth BRIAR ROSE sets the form standard and, given that a few things went wrong for her there, she ought to be tough to beat.

Thapa VC has a good record on the all-weather with six of his seven career victories, including one here over C&D, coming on a synthetic surface. Although well beaten here last time, he has dropped to the same make as his latest success. Purple Poppy arrives in good form and she could also go well, but George Margarson has his string in fine fettle so IDEAL GUEST could be the one. A winner at Yarmouth last time out, Tom Queally takes over in the saddle and he won off a higher mark last year.

Plenty in with a squeak but preference is for HOW IMPRESSIVE, who did too much too soon under an aggressive ride when third at Haydock earlier this month and with Oisin Murphy on board for the first time, Hugo Palmer's 4-y-o can break his duck in handicap company at the expense of Silver Screen, who didn't get the rub of the green last time and lurks on a dangerous mark. Purple Poppy and Thapa Vc can fight out minor honours.

17:00 Lingfield Maiden (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Make Clear was easy to back despite her promising debut before coming home fifth at Windsor earlier this month, and she could do better back on the all-weather, while Alexi Boy showed some promise when sixth at Leicester. STARSTRIKER is preferred to them both after she returned with a nose second at Windsor when the front two were clear of the third. As that was her first run since May 2022, she is entitled to improve considerably.

US import STARSTRIKER went down narrowly on her recent British debut at Windsor and a mere reproduction of that should suffice here from the plum draw. It's fair to say that Alexi Boy failed to measure up to market expectations on his introduction for Alice Haynes at Leicester last month but he should be sharper now and may emerge as the main danger. Make Clear and Megan Moon can do battle for minor honours.

This looks a great opportunity for the former US-trained STARSTRIKER to get off the mark, having failed to do so at Windsor by a nose.

With a distinct lack of recent winning form this looks a wide-open contest that may fall the way of COAST, who was only beaten a neck off 2lb lower at Wolverhampton last time. She could make amends for that now, though Bluebells Boy looks a serious rival. The booking of Jason Watson catches the eye as does the return to six furlongs. Grainne O Maille intrigues ahead of her handicap debut with a first-time hood added.

ORIENTAL SPIRIT is one to keep an eye on from this sort of mark and shaped with plenty of encouragement at Bath last time, so is taken to notch his first win of the season. Bluebells Boy arrives after a couple of decent efforts and is also respected, whilst Coast bounced back to form last time and remains well treated if able to build on that.

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.
