Races & Results Thursday 16th January 2025
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(5) Celtic Fortune 7/2, Fair maiden hurdler who has made an encouraging start over fences, beaten under a length by a progressive type at Wincanton (25f, soft) last time. Remains feasibly treated nudged up 4 lb and may well have a part to play here, too, provided the first-time blinkers have the desired effect. Needs to prove he can get the job done but he went close at Wincanton last month.
2
(2) (4/1 -33%) Camulus
4
4/1(-33%)
(2) Camulus 4/1, Off 9 months before returning with an encouraging third of 8 in handicap chase at Lingfield (23.5f, good to soft) in November, fading after 2 out. Weighted to go close off a 2 lb lower mark in his bid for a breakthrough success. Returned from break with encouraging third in strong race at Lingfield and he's respected.
4
(4) (6/1 +45%) Get Cracking
6
6/1(+45%)
(4) Get Cracking 6/1, Successful in points and left hurdles form behind sent chasing when fifth of 13 in handicap at Hereford (20.9f, good to soft) last month. Moving back up in trip will help and he's a live each-way contender. Kept on for fifth on handicap/chase debut and firmly in calculations now back up in trip.
1
(1) (7/1 +36%) Anytrixwilldo
7
7/1(+36%)
(1) Anytrixwilldo 7/1, Fair maiden hurdler/chaser but he was pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, soft) last month and is opposable on the back of that. Close 4th at Hereford in November in his second chase but pulled up at Market Rasen since.
7
(7) (8/1 -60%) Martalmix'jac
8
8/1(-60%)
(7) Martalmix'jac 8/1, Just 1 lb higher than for his clear-cut victory in a 4-runner Leicester handicap in February and left tame reappearance effort behind when a solid second here (2½m, soft) last month. Moving back up in trip will, if anything, be a good thing and he has to enter calculations. Inconsistent last year but runner-up here last month and could be in the mix.
8
(8) (12/1 +25%) Lelant
12
12/1(+25%)
(8) Lelant 12/1, Fair form without success over hurdles but not so good over fences so far and others make more appeal. 0-17; has struggled in the main this term but there was a hint of encouragement last time.
9
(9) (50/1 +24%) Fashion's Model
50
50/1(+24%)
(9) Fashion's Model 50/1, Sent chasing last season, off the mark on final start of the campaign as she landed mares' handicap at Wincanton (20.2f, heavy) in April. No show in a handful of runs so far this term, though, and hopes here pinned on the first-time blinkers sparking a revival. Won off this mark last April but a long way below that level on her four runs this season.
12:40 Ludlow Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Having appreciated a return to this course when runner-up in a class 4 event last month, MARTALMIX'JAC makes plenty of appeal racing off the same mark. A drop into class 5 company looks ideal for Mel Rowley's gelding and compensation awaits. A 4lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another good run from Wincanton second Celtic Fortune and he's feared most, ahead of Felton Bellevue.
A first success beckons for CAMULUS, who should come on for his reappearance third behind a couple of bang in-form rivals at Lingfield where he was returning from a nine-month absence. Martalmix'jac put in a good shift here last month and is next on the list ahead of Felton Bellevue, while Celtic Fortune and chase debutante The Midwife also merit respect.
Point winner GET CRACKING shaped on last month's chase debut at Hereford as though he would benefit from this step back up in trip.
(1) Aviation 3/1, Shaped well sole start in bumpers and built on encouraging hurdles debut when second of 12 upped to 21f in a Warwick maiden last month. Remains open to improvement and he's one for the shortlist. Placed at Warwick on first two hurdle starts (2m/2m5f) and he's a leading player.
4
(4) (4/1 -20%) Jack's Jury
4
4/1(-20%)
(4) Jack's Jury 4/1, €65,000 3-y-o, Jukebox Jury gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser Jimmy Two Times and fair hurdler Edvardo. Last of 6 finishers sole start in Irish points in March but still much respected now setting out under Rules for top yard. Merely sixth in his sole point but has joined top yard for his rules career; could go well.
2
(2) (5/1 +23%) Dwight K Schrute
5
5/1(+23%)
(2) Dwight K Schrute 5/1, £80,000 4-y-o. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser in France La Henriade and fair 2m hurdle winner Docte Dina. Successful sole run between the flags in February 2023 and, though absent since, he needs a close look on Rules debut for his respected, in-form new yard. Won a British point in February 2023; absent since but returns with yard in excellent form.
6
(6) (5/1 +0%) Monty Bodkin
5
5/1(+0%)
(6) Monty Bodkin 5/1, Expensive as a store (out of Grade 1 winning mare) and improved when winning Doncaster bumper in February. Switched yards and shaped better than the distance beaten suggests sent hurdling after 9 months off when sixth at Carlisle (20f, good to soft) 2 months ago. Has had a wind op since. Bumper winner who shaped as though he needed the run on hurdle/stable debut; considered.
8
(8) (12/1 +40%) Another Pearl
12
12/1(+40%)
(8) Another Pearl 12/1, Dam triple bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler. Signs of ability in bumpers but will probably be brought along gradually in this sphere, with a view to handicaps. Displayed some ability in bumpers but chunk of improvement needed on hurdle debut.
7
(7) (14/1 -17%) Ocean Walz
14
14/1(-17%)
(7) Ocean Walz 14/1, Finished runner-up all 3 starts in bumpers, so shade disappointing he couldn't continue the good work when eighth of 9 in novice hurdle at Hereford (19.7f, good to soft, 9/2) on hurdles bow 36 days ago, struggling after 4 out. This will reveal more. Runner-up in all three bumpers but tailed off on last month's hurdle debut at Hereford.
9
(9) (33/1 0%) King's Consort
33
33/1(0%)
(9) King's Consort 33/1, Youmzain mare. Dam multiple bumper winner/made frame sole start over hurdles. Placed on the second of her 2 starts between the flags back in March 2023. Probably best watched on Rules debut. Made the frame in two British point-to-point bumpers in early 2023 but absent since.
3
(3) (66/1 +0%) Grenardier
66
66/1(+0%)
(3) Grenardier 66/1, Little impact in a couple of bumpers and similar story in pair of maiden/novice hurdles upon returning to action this winter. Handicaps will be more his bag after this. Unable to finish better than sixth across his four starts and he'd be a surprise winner.
10
(10) (100/1 +50%) Minneigh Mozze
100
100/1(+50%)
(10) Minneigh Mozze 100/1, Unconvincing profile, pulled up when last seen at Newton Abbot in July and returns in first time tongue-tie today having rejoined former stable. Has shown very little across her seven runs; tongue-tie goes on.
11
(11) (100/1 +50%) The Dancing Lass
100
100/1(+50%)
(11) The Dancing Lass 100/1, Last of 6 in bumper at Bangor on debut in October and then trailed in last of 8 finishers switched to hurdles in a Hereford novice. Tailed off on debut in Bangor bumper and same story on hurdle debut at Hereford.
13:15 Ludlow Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Aviation arrives on the back of a solid second at Warwick and the six-year-old is likely to give another good account of himself. However, LIBRE DE CHOEUR made an encouraging Rules debut when finishing third in the stronger-looking first division of that maiden hurdle on the same card. Market support for winning pointer Dwight K Schrute on his Rules bow would be interesting.
AVIATION is shaping up well and looked well served by the step up in trip when runner up in a Warwick maiden 5 weeks ago. Open to further progress, he earns the vote to come out on top. Monty Bodkin was better than the distance beaten suggests on yard/hurdles debut at Carlisle and rates the type to do much better. Newcomer Jack's Jury and Libre de Choeur are others to consider.
Bumper winner MONTY BODKIN ran well for a long way before fading on his hurdle and seasonal debut, and has had wind surgery since.
(3) Heva Rose 9/4, Back on track following a second wind op, scoring on return at Lingfield last winter. Good second back there next time and best effort yet on these shores when resuming winning ways at Hereford (25.2f) 13 months ago. Absent since but fact she's gone well fresh previously bodes well. Has won after an absence; progressive; leading claims if resuming where she left off.
7
(7) (5/1 +9%) Superstylin
5
5/1(+9%)
(7) Superstylin 5/1, Irish point winner who opened chase account at Lingfield (2m) 14 months ago and almost repeated the feat back there in November. Still held up when unseating 4 out on latest outing 4 weeks ago and he's not one to write off now stepping back up in trip. Went close on reappearance in November; in with a chance if seeing out this longer trip.
2
(2) (6/1 -20%) Lucky Lugger
6
6/1(-20%)
(2) Lucky Lugger 6/1, Finished runner-up on first 2 starts over fences in November and, returned to Chepstow, in process of running well when falling 3 out over 2m 3 weeks ago. Has a race in him from this sort of mark. Remains a maiden but some good form at Chepstow this season and could have a part to play.
5
(5) (7/1 +13%) Greenrock Abbey
7
7/1(+13%)
(5) Greenrock Abbey 7/1, Dual winner over fences at Hereford during 2022/23 and placed twice last season. Strictly operating below best in 2 starts upon returning, weakening before 2 out when fourth of 6 in handicap chase at Fontwell (17.8f, soft) 21 days ago. First-time blinkers may help now. Below par the last twice but well handicapped and perhaps blinkers will give him a boost.
9
(9) (8/1 +43%) Night Jet
8
8/1(+43%)
(9) Night Jet 8/1, Maiden who showed no ill effects of a fall on reappearance when good third of 9 in handicap at Leicester last month and backed that up when a well-beaten second of 11 at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) next time. Not one to give up on making his chase debut for all he's out of the weights. Placed over hurdles the last twice but now 0-15 and 3lb out of the handicap on chase debut.
6
(6) (20/1 +20%) Fame And Fun
20
20/1(+20%)
(6) Fame And Fun 20/1, Won a Plumpton handicap chase in March but patchy record over fences/hurdles subsequently for Paul Nicholls. Low-key start for new yard when fifth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, heavy) 28 days ago and return to chasing/refitted cheekpieces needs to have positive effect. Won over fences last March but tailed off over hurdles on last month's stable debut.
8
(8) (33/1 -32%) Yes And Yes
33
33/1(-32%)
(8) Yes And Yes 33/1, Just about matched his poor hurdles form sent chasing when fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (23.8f, heavy) when last seen 10 months ago. Handicapper dropped him 5 lb ahead of his return but others more solid. Fair fourth on chase debut here last February but bigger run needed on first start since.
4
(4) (33/1 +34%) Micro Millions
33
33/1(+34%)
(4) Micro Millions 33/1, £40,000 buy after winning an Irish point and made the frame 3 times over hurdles at up to 25f for Dan Skelton last term. However, low-key efforts in 2 chase tries for new yard in recent months. Has it to prove for now. Placed in maiden hurdles but pulled up/well beaten on his first two chase/stable starts.
13:50 Ludlow Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
HEVA ROSE looked one to keep the right side of when landing the spoils in a class 2 chase at Hereford 397 days ago and Venetia Williams' mare may be worth chancing off just 3lb higher. Although he was last seen falling at Chepstow, Lucky Lugger is a potential improver up in distance and the eight-year-old shouldn't be underestimated. Connections of Greenrock Abbey reach for first-time blinkers and an improved bid wouldn't come as a surprise.
HEVA ROSE got her career firmly back on track when scoring twice over fences last winter and, appealing as the type who could step up further this campaign, she's fancied to make light of an absence again and come out on top. Zestful Hope if lining up here and Lucky Lugger are others to consider.
The mare HEVA ROSE was progressive towards the end of 2023 and has won after some time off in the past. Lucky Lugger is a danger.
(8) We Got Your Back 3/1, Fallen to a basement mark and, back from 4 months off/refitted with a hood got off the mark when seeing off Lady Pretender by 2 lengths at Leicester (15.9f) 19 days ago. Strength at the finish then suggests this step back up in trip is well worth exploring. Big shout. Off the mark at Leicester last month in a first-time hood and he's a leading player.
6
(6) (4/1 +0%) Lady Pretender
4
4/1(+0%)
(6) Lady Pretender 4/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser in France and seemingly finding her feet for present yard following a second wind op, second behind re-opposing We Got Your Back in handicap chase at Leicester (15.9f, soft) 19 days ago. Claims back up in trip. Placed over 1m7f/2m the last twice and could have more to offer now back up in trip.
4
(4) (9/2 -29%) Thunder N Lightnin
4.5
9/2(-29%)
(4) Thunder N Lightnin 9/2, 7-y-o who showed promise in pair of novice hurdles last winter and again showed encouragement after 10 months off when third in 6-runner novice at Kempton (21f) in November. Appeals as the type to make his mark now handicapping in this sphere and good showing anticipated. Very lightly raced 7yo who is a possible improver now switched to fences on handicap debut.
2
(2) (6/1 +20%) Rajjamataz
6
6/1(+20%)
(2) Rajjamataz 6/1, Off the mark over fences at Fontwell in May and followed that with a couple of decent efforts in defeat. Didn't find much when it came to the crunch on his reappearance at Uttoxeter in November but he's entitled to come on for that run. In good form prior to last time, when soft ground at Uttoxeter may not have been ideal.
3
(3) (8/1 +20%) Redbridge Rambler
8
8/1(+20%)
(3) Redbridge Rambler 8/1, Signed off last term with 3m Ascot success and also a creditable third at Kempton (3m again) in May. Has disappointed when a remote fourth in 2 chases this autumn and no resurgence for return to hurdling at Doncaster in November. Others preferred. Won off this mark over hurdles last March but below par in autumn (including over fences).
1
(1) (10/1 +38%) Just One Surf
10
10/1(+38%)
(1) Just One Surf 10/1, Placed in Irish points/bumper and left his first 2 hurdle runs behind when springing a 40/1 surprise in a maiden at Taunton (2m, soft) in March. However, well-beaten next time and he's failed to complete both starts over fences, including after 8 months off 17 days ago. Blinkers reached for. Pulled up in both chases but lightly raced and perhaps blinkers will give him a boost.
5
(5) (12/1 +40%) Gaelic Park
12
12/1(+40%)
(5) Gaelic Park 12/1, Point/bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles in a maiden at Warwick (21f, heavy) in March 2023 but struggled last season, including over fences, and recent hurdles exploits have been below par. Return to larger obstacles needs to have positive effect. Soundly beaten over hurdles on both runs this term and hasn't taken to chasing previously.
9
(9) (14/1 -155%) Bumpy Evans
14
14/1(-155%)
(9) Bumpy Evans 14/1, Offered little in a trio of starts over hurdles for Ben Lund in 2022/23 but successful between the Flags subsequently, winning each of his last 2 starts, the latest in May. 10 lb out of the weights now handicapping in this sphere for new yard and the betting can guide. Hood on 1st time. Won 2 points last May; could play leading role if transferring that ability back to rules.
7
(7) (14/1 +36%) Aldsworth
14
14/1(+36%)
(7) Aldsworth 14/1, Maiden but improved form for his new yard in 2023, runner-up over hurdles at Hereford. Shaped better than the distance beaten in first-time blinkers after 11 months off at Huntingdon in November and that ought to have blown the cobwebs away now his attentions switch to chasing. 0-9 over hurdles but not ruled out on chase debut and second start back from an absence.
14:25 Ludlow Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
WE GOT YOUR BACK accounted for Lady Pretender by two lengths when victorious over 2m at Leicester last month and is only 3lb worse off. The seven-year-old should have no issues with this step back up in trip and can confirm that form to complete a double. As for the latter, it would be no surprise to see her get closer and prove to be the main threat. Any market confidence behind dual point-to-point winner Bumpy Evans would also be interesting.
WE GOT YOUR BACK was never stronger than at the finish when opening his account over shorter at Leicester 3 weeks ago and he's taken to build on that returned to this longer trip from a 3 lb higher mark. Thunder N Lightnin is a most intriguing chase debutant and is another to consider. Lady Pretender, who finished runner-up to the selection last time, can also feature.
Two-time point winner BUMPY EVANS has a basement mark to work with now back under rules and can make a winning chase debut.
(2) Ascending Lark 9/4, Fair form at best in trio of bumpers in Ireland and comes here having readily landed each of her 2 starts in mares' maiden/novice hurdles at around 2m during the spring. Big player now handicapping on return with prospect of more to come. 2-2 for this yard; returns from absence but brings potential into handicaps.
5
(5) (3/1 +45%) Ironed Out
3
3/1(+45%)
(5) Ironed Out 3/1, Only narrowly denied at Fakenham before Christmas and confirmed improvement shown then when winning 10-runner handicap hurdle at Taunton (16.5f) 8 days ago. Respected under a penalty given she's still low-mileage from a handicapping perspective. Won at Taunton last week and this unexposed 5yo is respected under a 7lb penalty.
4
(4) (4/1 +60%) Roaring Home
4
4/1(+60%)
(4) Roaring Home 4/1, Plenty of promise in 3 bumper starts and perfect start over hurdles when bagging Exeter mares' maiden (16.7f) on return in October. Struck into when pulled up at Newbury next time but below form when fourth of 8 in novice hurdle at Kelso (20.9f) 39 days ago. Handicap debut. Possible excuses the last twice but needs to get back on track on handicap debut.
3
(3) (11/2 -10%) Hard As Nails
5.5
11/2(-10%)
(3) Hard As Nails 11/2, Progressed a bit to make a successful handicap debut after 3 months off at Stratford (18.5f, good to soft) in October. Appeared to find test too much when fourth in testing conditions at Sandown (19.8f) 6 weeks ago and she appeals as the type to bounce back. Won on handicap debut then faded over 2m4f at Sandown; retains potential back down in trip.
6
(6) (7/1 -8%) Culligran
7
7/1(-8%)
(6) Culligran 7/1, Found improvement when getting off the mark in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Hereford (16.2f) in November. Respectable efforts from inflated mark both starts subsequently around there and handicapper has relinquished his grip a little ahead of this. Some good form at Hereford in recent months and she might not be far away.
1
(1) (10/1 +0%) Victoria Milano
10
10/1(+0%)
(1) Victoria Milano 10/1, Dual hurdles winner (including here) who reportedly bled when pulled up on final start of last season here (23.8f) in April. Easy to back and shaped as if better for the run on last month's reappearance when sixth in handicap at Aintree (20f) 3 weeks ago. Better expected back down in trip. May have needed her recent reappearance outing and this course winner is not written off.
15:00 Ludlow Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
ASCENDING LARK hasn't looked back since joining the Harry Derham stable after completing a double in good style at Huntingdon last April, and she now makes her handicap debut. The daughter of Great Pretender could have plenty more to offer on only her third start over hurdles and can defy her opening mark of 113. Ironed Out got her head in front for the first time at Taunton eight days ago and holds an obvious chance, while Hard As Nails looks best of the rest.
ASCENDING LARK made a fine start for the Harry Derham yard when winning each of her 2 starts in maiden/novice company back in the spring and, appealing as the type to go on improving further now handicapping, she's fancied to make a bold bid to bring up the hat-trick back from 8 months off. Hard As Nails rates a likely type to bounce back from her Sandown effort and is a threat, as is Taunton scorer Ironed Out.
Handicap newcomer ASCENDING LARK (nap) is 2-2 over hurdles and for Harry Derham and can make a winning comeback.
(1) Bardenstown Lad 2/1, Winner of a handicap hurdle and maiden chase for Gavin Cromwell at Kilbeggan in 2024. Won't be found wanting fitness-wise following a couple of spins between the flags last month but likely to have his work cut out here against Jet Plane and Eva's Oskar, if those rivals are on-song. Seven-time rules winner who went close in a recent point; warrants serious consideration.
2
(2) (9/4 -38%) Jet Plane
2.25
9/4(-38%)
(2) Jet Plane 9/4, Back-to-back winner of handicap chases at Sandown and Market Rasen last spring, and positive start to this season when third of 8 at Wetherby in October. Shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest effort at Kempton during the Christmas period and he's a key player on this hunter debut. Below par in handicaps the last twice but a leading player now dropped into a hunter chase.
3
(3) (9/4 -29%) Eva's Oskar
2.25
9/4(-29%)
(3) Eva's Oskar 9/4, Likeable chaser who landed a valuable Cheltenham handicap a couple of seasons back. Didn't shape badly at Chepstow on his sole appearance last term and will prove a tough nut to crack now pitched into a hunter chase if anywhere near his best following a 15-month absence. 11yo who returns from an absence but he'll be a major contender if retaining his ability.
4
(4) (14/1 +36%) Solomon Grey
14
14/1(+36%)
(4) Solomon Grey 14/1, Back-to-back hunter winner in April 2022 but hasn't tasted success since and this 13-y-o is opposable. Useful C&D winner in his prime but this 13yo wasn't the force of old last spring.
LTO Selection:hiden content, hiden content,
15:35 Ludlow Hunter Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
JET PLANE has struggled in handicap company the last twice but he was a close third in a competitive event at Wetherby in October off a mark of 135. A repeat of that level of form would make him hard to beat in this company. Eva's Oskar has not had much racing of late but should not be underestimated on his return, while Bardenstown Lad completes the shortlist.
EVA'S OSKAR's record when fresh is pretty decent and while he probably needs a stiffer test than this nowadays, the 11-y-o should outclass these if resuming from a break in good order. Jet Plane is readily preferred to Irish import Bardenstown Lad for forecast purposes.
Preference is for EVA'S OSKAR on his first run since October 2023. He has a very good chance if he retains a fair chunk of his ability.
(8) Oracle Park 9/4, Frammassone filly. Sister to modest hurdler Cawthorne Cracker and poor chaser Cowboy Cooper. Dam unraced out of useful 2½m-3m hurdle winner Catch Ball. Trainer’s newcomers command respect. Sister to two winners (respective peak RPRs 91/90); in top hands; one to consider on debut.
3
(3) (7/2 +0%) And She Was
3.5
7/2(+0%)
(3) And She Was 7/2, Linda's Lad filly. Half-sister to numerous winners, including useful hurdler/smart chaser Warriors Tale and bumper winner/fairly useful 21f hurdle winner Samarquand. Plenty to like on paper. Has a useful pedigree and is in good hands; could play a leading role on debut.
10
(10) (5/1 -11%) Shotgun Shirley
5
5/1(-11%)
(10) Shotgun Shirley 5/1, Soldier of Fortune filly. Half-sister to 4 winners, including useful hurdler Martello Sky and fair hurdler/useful chaser Brief Ambition. Yard have had success with this family, including in bumpers, so she's got to be respected. From a family her trainer has done well with; could be a serious force on her first start.
12
(12) (7/1 +0%) Tyger Lily
7
7/1(+0%)
(12) Tyger Lily 7/1, Backed at long odds and showed definite signs of ability, despite being very much in need of experience, first time up at Newbury 4 weeks ago. Entitled to improve. Green when fifth on last month's debut at Newbury; open to improvement; chance.
7
(7) (7/1 +13%) Girl Of Gold
7
7/1(+13%)
(7) Girl Of Gold 7/1, Well held in Stratford and Doncaster bumpers. Work to do. Fair fifth on first two runs but vulnerable if any of the newcomers are above average.
6
(6) (10/1 +9%) Gaelic Saint
10
10/1(+9%)
(6) Gaelic Saint 10/1, Saint des Saints filly. Dam, French hurdler (19f winner), half-sister to French hurdler/chase winner (17f/2¼m winner) Gaelic Ocean. Not discounted on debut. Stable won a jumper bumper at Hereford with a 25-1 newcomer last month; possible contender.
2
(2) (12/1 +0%) Analiese
12
12/1(+0%)
(2) Analiese 12/1, £18,000 3-y-o, Harzand filly. Dam, 1½m-1¾m winner, half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser in France (17f-19f winner) Angel's Share. Worth a look on debut. £18,000 3yo; first foal; dam useful 1m4f/1m6f Flat winner; not ruled out on debut.
11
(11) (16/1 +0%) Tullow Troop
16
16/1(+0%)
(11) Tullow Troop 16/1, Jack Hobbs filly. Dam 2½m/21f hurdle winner, half-sister to smart hurdler/very smart chaser (2m-3m winner) Black Hercules. Trainer 2-11 in bumpers this season and it will be no surprise to see a good run on debut.
9
(9) (33/1 +34%) Pepper Queen
33
33/1(+34%)
(9) Pepper Queen 33/1, 20/1, green and well beaten in Ludlow bumper 6 weeks ago. 20-1 when tailed off on last month's debut over C&D; lots of improvement is needed.

(1) Adaay Dancing 66/1, By no means certain to stay the trip on pedigree and gave herself little chance of doing so in any case as she pulled hard and finished well beaten in Wincanton bumper (100/1) 6 weeks ago. Hood goes on now. Half-sister to 3 Flat winners but tailed off at 100-1 on last month's debut at Wincanton.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Girl Of Gold and Tyger Lily are the pick of those with racecourse experience but the level they set is not very high. As a result, preference is for AND SHE WAS, who is closely related to plenty of winners and her yard do well in bumpers. Oracle Park is another noteworthy debutant and any market support for her would have to be noted.
This can go to a newcomer, with SHOTGUN SHIRLEY chanced over And She Was and Oracle Park before market clues.
Top of the list is the newcomer SHOTGUN SHIRLEY, who hails from a family her trainer Lucy Wadham has done well with.

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.

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.
