Authorised Speed

0.8
0.8/1(-10%)
(1) Authorised Speed 0.8/1, Useful bumper performer, winning impressively at Newbury in January and beaten just 10¾ lengths in fifth behind Facile Vega in the Cheltenham Champion Bumper when last seen. Very interesting hurdling debutant for Lingfield's leading yard.

Broadway Boy

7
7/1(+42%)
(12) Broadway Boy 7/1, Subject of a late gamble but was held back by inexperience when second of 4 in novice hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f) on debut last month, jumping none too fluently. Type to do better with that outing under his belt but this is tougher.

(9) Scene One 25/1, 80/1, showed plenty on debut in Newbury novice hurdle over this sort of trip in March, not knocked about. Should improve.

Thruthelookinglass

20
20/1(-150%)
(10) Thruthelookinglass 20/1, Has shown plenty more over hurdles 10 months apart, runner-up on his first go over them in January and still to be shaken off when unshipping going into the final flight at Worcester (25/1) 3 weeks ago. Must be respected.
11
6th (11) Torula (14/1 +50%)
Torula

14
14/1(+50%)
(11) Torula 14/1, £55,000 buy, from the family of smart hurdler/very smart chaser (stayed 2½m) Defy Logic. Runner-up sole start in Irish points (Jan 16). Starts out over hurdles with yard in good form.

The Scorpion King

125
125/1(-89%)
(13) The Scorpion King 125/1, Fair in bumpers but shaped as if amiss on hurdling debut after 8 months off (also lost shoe) at Hereford.

Hardy Fella

3.33
3.33/1(+63%)
(3) Hardy Fella 3.33/1, Consistent performer in bumpers, making frame in a Cheltenham listed event before winning at Fontwell. Shaped encouragingly sent hurdling for new yard after 8 months off at Worcester recently and entitled to improve.
2
|PU| (2) Churchills Boy (14/1 -40%)
Churchills Boy

14
14/1(-40%)
(2) Churchills Boy 14/1, Point bumper winner who created a good impression when landing Chepstow bumper in February, forging clear under this rider. Well worth a look now attentions are switched to jumping.

Herakles Westwood

40
40/1(-186%)
(5) Herakles Westwood 40/1, Showed fair form in a couple of bumpers in February. Work to do now hurdling.

Racing Snake

100
100/1(+0%)
(7) Racing Snake 100/1, Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser Snow Leopardess. Won 3 of his 4 starts in points but made little impact in novice hunter at Exeter 7 months ago.
4

Hector Jaguen

150
150/1(-127%)
(4) Hector Jaguen 150/1, Maiden Irish pointer who hinted at ability on hurdling debut at Ascot a fortnight ago, given a considerate introduction. More one for the longer term (looks more a chaser than hurdler on physique). Authorised Speed stronger for yard.

White Hart Lady

4
4/1(+0%)
(7) White Hart Lady 4/1, Opened hurdles account at Fontwell last November and followed that with a couple of solid efforts in defeat. No match for the winner when second in a 4-runner Worcester handicap (23f, good to soft) on chase debut but she's entitled to come on for that run.
6
2nd (6) The Real Jet (28/1 +58%)
The Real Jet

28
28/1(+58%)
(6) The Real Jet 28/1, Point winner who stepped up on previous Rules efforts when runner-up in a Plumpton novice hurdle in January. It would be something of an understatement to say that she's failed to build on that since, though, and failed to complete on return/chase debut. Now tried in cheekpieces.
3
3rd (3) River Tyne (4.5/1 +44%)
River Tyne

4.5
4.5/1(+44%)
(3) River Tyne 4.5/1, Winless following half-a-dozen attempts over hurdles but was placed 3 times in that sphere last season, and she was successful on her sole start between the flags back in 2019. Well worth a second look now sent chasing.

Lost Connections

8.5
8.5/1(-31%)
(2) Lost Connections 8.5/1, Yet to win a race of any description but it's still early days and posted by far her best effort yet under Rules when runner-up following a wind op in a Hereford handicap chase (21f, good to soft) recently. Major player off the same mark.
8
|F| (8) Lightning Gold (6/1 +20%)
Lightning Gold

6
6/1(+20%)
(8) Lightning Gold 6/1, Poor maiden hurdler but showed more spark switched to fences when third of 8 at Leicester in March. Backed that up when finding just one too good on debut for new yard at Warwick (3m, good) later that month and she's not without each-way hope.
5
|F| (5) Hello Sunshine (9/1 -13%)
Hello Sunshine

9
9/1(-13%)
(5) Hello Sunshine 9/1, Scored over hurdles off this mark at Uttoxeter in May 2021 but more miss than hit in 4 subsequent appearances. Hopes pinned on the switch to fences sparking a revival.
1
|PU| (1) My Silver Lining (2.5/1 +0%)
My Silver Lining

2.5
2.5/1(+0%)
(1) My Silver Lining 2.5/1, Impressive winner of a 2m novice hurdle on deep ground here in February. Shaped as though she'd be all the better for her reappearance/chase debut third at Fakenham (21.2f, good to soft) last month and improvement should be forthcoming.
4
|PU| (4) Tazka (10/1 -100%)
Tazka

10
10/1(-100%)
(4) Tazka 10/1, Sole win over fences was registered at Fontwell over 2 years ago but she hasn't clocked up much mileage in the interim. Creditable second in first-time blinkers (retained) at Huntingdon (23.6f, good) when last seen in June and she needs considering.

Endless Escape

12
12/1(+57%)
(14) Endless Escape 12/1, Showed a bit when fifth of 14 in a Punchestown bumper in March. Beaten in points since but still worth a precautiuonary betting check now hurdling for new trainer.

El Muchacho

11
11/1(-10%)
(4) El Muchacho 11/1, Point winner who reached the frame on both bumper starts but ran to only a modest level when well-held third on 2½m Fakenham hurdle debut 32 days ago. Finished quite tamely on that occasion and now drops in trip.
5

Godot

(5) Godot 8/1, Shaped well when third on Huntingdon bumper debut last Christmas. Not in the same form in 2 subsequent outings last season. Makes hurdle debut on reappearance.

25/1(-56%)
(9) Leading Swoop 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden in points but did offer some promise when sixth in 15-runner Exeter novice hurdle on Rules bow 12 months ago. However, been absent since.

Commander Of Ten

3.5
3.5/1(-17%)
(3) Commander Of Ten 3.5/1, Unplaced in a couple of bumpers last winter but had a breathing operation subsequently and shaped better when 15 lengths third on his Cheltenham hurdle debut 25 days ago. Open to improvement and big player.

Barrier Peaks

100
100/1(-52%)
(2) Barrier Peaks 100/1, Showed plenty of ability on debut when runner-up in bumper at Chepstow in February 2021 but has been rather disappointing in a light career since, including in 2 novice hurdles this autumn.

Optimise Prime

7
7/1(+22%)
(2) Optimise Prime 7/1, Dual winner as a novice a couple of seasons back and appeared to resume progress when third in a 12-runner handicap at Ascot (21.6f, good to soft) last December. Pulled up both subsequent starts but returns form a break on a good mark and with his yard in fine form.

Branson Missouri

1.88
1.88/1(+6%)
(7) Branson Missouri 1.88/1, Has sprouted wings since switched to this yard, landing 2½m Worcester handicaps under Tom Scudamore the last twice on good/heavy. Hit with a 13 lb rise for latest success but she couldn't have won any easier and another bold show is anticipated.
10

Kenny George

16
16/1(+11%)
(10) Kenny George 16/1, Winner of just one of his 16 starts over hurdles and while he performed with credit on his recent return at Fontwell (17.7f, soft), a clear career-best will be needed from 4 lb out of the handicap here.
8
4th (8) Gerico Ville (3.5/1 +22%)
Gerico Ville

3.5
3.5/1(+22%)
(8) Gerico Ville 3.5/1, Related to plenty of winners and placed twice in C&D maiden hurdles last year prior to falling at around the halfway point on handicap bow, again over C&D when last seen in January. Resumes with yard in fine form and couldn't rule out improvement given his low mileage. Engaged 2.40 Plumpton Monday.
9
|PU| (9) Pearly Island (6.5/1 +35%)
Pearly Island

6.5
6.5/1(+35%)
(9) Pearly Island 6.5/1, Left previous efforts behind when runner-up in maiden at Fontwell in February but needs to bounce back in a significant way following a poor reappearance display at Worcester.
6
|PU| (6) Icare Grandchamp (7.5/1 -67%)
Icare Grandchamp

7.5
7.5/1(-67%)
(6) Icare Grandchamp 7.5/1, Showed plenty of ability in 2 hurdle outings in France, finishing second at Compiegne in March. Too free on return/debut for new yard in 2½m Worcester novice when sporting a first-time hood (retained) recently but he's unexposed and worth a second look now pitched into a handicap.
3
|PU| (3) Heros (16/1 +11%)
Heros

16
16/1(+11%)
(3) Heros 16/1, Maiden bumper winner in France and off the mark over hurdles in a 4-y-o event at Senonnes-Pouance when last seen in October 2021. Form is hard to quantify, though, and handicapper taken no chances ahead of this British debut.
4
|PU| (4) Thirtyfourstitches (18/1 -80%)
Thirtyfourstitches

18
18/1(-80%)
(4) Thirtyfourstitches 18/1, Likeable front-runner who was prolific last season, notching his seventh victory with a career-best effort at Market Rasen in April. Probably best to draw a line through his low-key reappearance effort at Aintree but others make more appeal all the same.
1
|PU| (1) Kannapolis (33/1 -106%)
Kannapolis

33
33/1(-106%)
(1) Kannapolis 33/1, Made the most of a golden opportunity in 3-runner handicap at Huntingdon in March. However, down the field on his next 2 starts, including when returning to action at Uttoxeter last month, and needs to bounce back now tried in cheekpieces.
5

Cilaos Glace

66
66/1(-200%)
(5) Cilaos Glace 66/1, Successful over fences at Fontwell last December but failed to complete in 2 subsequent outings. Reverts to hurdles back from 6 months off and probably best watched.

33
33/1(+18%)
(7) Shirocco's Delight 33/1, Modest hurdler in Ireland and not even at that level for current yard, pulled up on return at Fontwell last month. Will need to turn over a new leaf now switched to fences if he's to have a say in the finish.
5
1st (5) Ramore Will (16/1 -60%)
Ramore Will

16
16/1(-60%)
(5) Ramore Will 16/1, Last win came in 2020 and he struggled for form over both sets of obstacles last season. Still, he's slipped to a potentially handy mark as a consequence and returns from a break with yard in terrific form, so there's cause for optimism.
1
2nd (1) Waikiki Waves (11/1 -38%)
Waikiki Waves

11
11/1(-38%)
(1) Waikiki Waves 11/1, Successful off a similar mark over 23f here last December but he's hardly a model of consistency and is hard to warm to on the back of a poor reappearance display at Fontwell.
2

Enduring Love

12
12/1(-140%)
(2) Enduring Love 12/1, Resumed winning ways in a Clonmel handicap chase (2½m, heavy) in February and followed that with a couple of creditable efforts in defeat. Cheekpieces refitted on return/debut for new yard and possibilities if able to hold it together jumping-wise.
4
4th (4) Artemision (5/1 +23%)
Artemision

5
5/1(+23%)
(4) Artemision 5/1, Placed a couple of times in handicap chases for Ben Pauling last season but record has a patchy look to it and beaten a fair way on return/first run following a wind op for new yard at Plumpton. Tongue strap refitted.
6

Percy Veering

4.5
4.5/1(+50%)
(6) Percy Veering 4.5/1, No real impact in a bumper nor 4 starts overs hurdles last season. In good hands and it's entirely possible that he will do better over fences at some point but improvement will certainly be needed if he's to make a winning debut in this sphere.
3
|PU| (3) Blended Stealth (1.1/1 +0%)
Blended Stealth

1.1
1.1/1(+0%)
(3) Blended Stealth 1.1/1, Winless following 8 attempts over hurdles but posted one of his better efforts in that sphere when runner-up on return in a 2½m Fakenham handicap (good) last month. Very much of interest back up in trip on this chase debut.
9

Shanroe Smooch

(7) Chloe's Court 16/1, Shaped as if needing the run after 6 months off when fourth of 6 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f) 21 days ago. A fair 3m winner last term so he's not dismissed off a 3 lb lower mark.

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.
