Reach For The Moon

2
2/1(+33%)
(6) Reach For The Moon 2/1, Smart but lightly raced on Flat (barely stays 1¼m) for John & Thady Gosden, well held both starts in 2023. Reportedly returned lame when fourth on hurdles debut in February. Given time to recover and he has to be capable of better.
Smart Flat form now a fading memory; finished lame on hurdle debut but much to prove.

Ittack Blue

1/12(+86%)
(1) Ittack Blue 1/12, 310,000 gns purchase after winning a point in Ireland. Hasn't stood much racing but in top hands and well prepared to land the odds on reappearance over C&D a fortnight ago. Obvious claims if this doesn't come too quick.
Beat his market rival with the pair clear here two weeks ago; should be hard to beat.

Independent Jimmy

9/1(+59%)
(4) Independent Jimmy 9/1, Related to winners over obstacles but looked green in bumpers. Bit more like it when mid-field on hurdles debut at Uttoxeter but likely needs more time.
Low-level bumper form and never got involved when 100-1 for hurdling debut at Uttoxeter.

(7) Strip Light 125/1, No show both starts in this sphere in 2020 and, having offered little in a handful of appearances on the Flat last year, he predictably showed nothing back hurdling for new yard in November.
Flat maiden who was tailed off in a Sedgefield maiden last time at odds of 250-1.

Tailed off in his two bumpers and hurdling debut was just as forgettable.

13:58 Market Rasen Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Having finished lame on his right hind when fourth on his hurdles bow at Sedgefield in February, talented Flat performer Reach For The Moon shouldn't be judged too harshly on that defeat. However, the five-year-old will need to up his game to taste victory in this sphere and the experienced ITTACK BLUE rates a more solid proposition. The Dan Skelton-trained gelding opened his account over C&D earlier this month and he could defy a 7lb penalty if dictating the pace once more. Kopa Kilana may chase the duo home.

ITTACK BLUE jumped fluently when outclassing the opposition over C&D a fortnight ago, and in the hope this doesn't come too soon (very lightly raced) he's fancied to follow up. Reach For The Moon failed to meet expectations on hurdles debut but given his Flat form, he'll surely do better this time and is the obvious threat.

Recent C&D winner ITTACK BLUE should be following up in this company. Reach For The Moon can chase him home.

(8) Mrs Kinsella 8/1, Pulled up for the third consecutive start in handicap chase at Plumpton (19.8f, good to soft) 6 months ago. Switches to hurdles with plenty to do.

Lightly raced in recent times and has a fair bit to prove at present..

Cher Tara

(4) Cher Tara 7/2, Has caught the eye on his last two runs, not given at all a hard time when fifth in 2m Warwick novice 17 days ago. One to consider now into handicaps over further.
Player if strong in the market on handicap debut now stepped up in distance for top yard..

Respectable third from the front last time but far from guaranteed to back that up..

14:28 Market Rasen Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

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

The stoutly-bred CHER TARA appeals as just the type to improve for this step up in distance now entering handicap company and the five-year-old could leave modest efforts in maiden/novice hurdle company behind her. The daughter of Kayf Tara shouldn't be overfaced by an opening mark of 87 and she edges the vote over fellow handicap debutant Mays Hill, who looks handily weighted if judged on her bumper form. The returning Nastasiya completes the shortlist.

Not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest and NASTASIYA is worth siding with to capitalise on a lenient mark on her first run for Lucinda Russell. Handicap-debutante Cher Tara looks to have more to offer and could emerge as the main danger with Mays Hill another who could take a step forward now venturing into this company for the first time.

Nastasiya is respected but preference is for handicap newcomer CHER TARA with this longer trip likely to suit.

(6) Seasmoke 9/2, Lightly-raced maiden who comes here on the back of a good fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f, good) 29 days ago, going with enthusiasm. Needs considering off the same mark.
Racing off the same mark as when fourth at Ludlow last month, likely contender..

Reproduction of this month's C&D fourth would put her in the mix..

Well held on this month's return; dropped another 4lb with plenty to prove.

Interesting on handicap debut back from wind surgery judged on her bumper promise..

14:58 Market Rasen Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 21f Race Class Flow

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

Although TRICKALIGHT races from 2lb out of the weights, Deborah Cole's mare arrives on the back of two creditable efforts in defeat at Fontwell. This rise in distance won't inconvenience the daughter of Leading Light and a first victory under Rules could beckon. My Girl Katie travelled with more verve on her third-placed effort at Stratford earlier this month. The seven-year-old should be in the mix once more if running to a similar level, while the relatively unexposed Seasmoke must enter calculations too.

A case can be made for lots of these but MY GIRL KATIE rates the pick of the weights so is taken to gain her breakthrough victory at the chief expense of the lightly-raced Seasmoke. Snow Shepherdess is another to consider now going handicapping along with in-form duo My Portia and Trickalight.

In a tricky contest, Snow Shepherdess is interesting but SEASMOKE appeals most after her promising Ludlow fourth.

Post No Bills

22
22/1(+0%)
(5) Post No Bills 22/1, Bagged 3 handicap chases in 2023, readily making all at Plumpton (17f, good) for latest success in September. However, he hasn't put his best foot forward in 3 starts since returning from a break in March.
More exposed than some and bit to prove at present; the better ground should help though..

God's Own Getaway

2
2/1(+0%)
(1) God's Own Getaway 2/1, Low-mileage 6-y-o who made a successful chasing debut in handicap at Southwell (20.4f) in April. Collared dying strides only by a handicap blot at Warwick 17 days ago and remains of interest. Engaged 4.08 Warwick Wednesday.
Has taken well to fences and it's unlikely we've seen the best of him yet; big player..

2nd (4) Sleeping Satellite (11/4 +50%)
Sleeping Satellite

2.75
11/4(+50%)
(4) Sleeping Satellite 11/4, Point/bumper winner who opened hurdles account in a Carlisle novice 15 months ago. Some promise in handicaps last season and yard in better form now. Not taken lightly switched to fences.
Irish point winner who is respected now upped in distance on chase debut..

The Gypsy Davey

5.5
11/2(-83%)
(2) The Gypsy Davey 11/2, Off the mark at the fourth attempt between the flags in December and put that experience to good use when making all in maiden at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) on Rules debut following month. Defied a penalty in similar fashion at Hereford so must be respected up in trip on chase/handicap bow.
Unexposed 6yo who's 2-2 over hurdles; up in trip for chase/handicap debut; interesting..

Texard

Seven-time chase winner who is considered, particularly if the ground isn't soft..

Friary Rock

Good-ground chase winner who should be all the sharper since this month's return..

15:28 Market Rasen Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Point-to-point winner THE GYPSY DAVEY made a seamless transition to hurdles, doing it well on his debut at Taunton before following up at Hereford. Given time to strengthen further, and with his background between the flags suggesting he could be even better over fences, a mark of 110 for his handicap bow makes him hard to resist. Sleeping Satellite is another interesting newcomer to the larger obstacles, while Texard struck over 2m1f here before possibly finding 2m5f beyond him at Uttoxeter, so this trip could be ideal.

GOD'S OWN GETAWAY has made an encouraging start to his chasing career and can quickly resume winning ways having been just denied by a subsequent winner at Warwick. Texard had excuses at Uttoxeter and his wide-margin win here the time before is solid form, so he rates the obvious threat. though chasing newcomers The Gypsy Davey and Sleeping Satellite aren't taken lightly.

Sleeping Satellite merits respect on chase debut but it's unlikely we've seen the best of GOD'S OWN COUNTRY over fences yet.

Hereford winner at 2m; similar form in defeat since then at about 2m4f.

Got Your Back

(8) Got Your Back 8/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points and off the mark at the third attempt under Rules in a Musselburgh maiden in December. Hasn't scaled same heights either start in novice company since though, and he needs to get back on track now switched to handicaps/following wind surgery.
Maiden winner; had wind surgery ahead of handicap debut and retains potential.

4th (5) Chaos Control (17/2 +39%)
Chaos Control

8.5

Ex-Irish gelding who lacks a run and he's tackling some in-form rivals here.
7

This mark looks no gift but she brings momentum into handicap debut.

Last season was a solid one over fences and he's rated 5lb lower in this discipline.

Behind Notnowlinda next time at Cheltenham; will do well to reverse those placings.

Formerly useful but a big ask to be competitive after such a mammoth absence.

15:58 Market Rasen Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 21f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

MAGICAL HILL has relished the switch to hurdles, going in at the first time of asking at Huntingdon before handling the step up from 2m with ease when following up over this trip at Kelso. An initial mark of 116 doesn't seem overly harsh and he is worth sticking with. He faces his acid test, though, with the usually-reliable Notnowlinda dangerous on the back of a Hereford second. Kaleb went down by the narrowest of margins at Southwell and is only 2lb higher, while Got Your Back enters the handicap ranks following wind surgery.

MAGICAL HILL cemented the positive start made over hurdles when making it 2-2 in straightforward fashion at Kelso 2 weeks ago and he looks the type to make an immediate impact in handicaps on that evidence. Fellow in-form pair Notnowlinda and Kaleb are others to consider, whilst Half Shot is another to bear in mind operating from his lower hurdles mark.

Dan Skelton's NOTNOWLINDA (nap) is looking handicapped about right but she arrives here on the back of three excellent efforts.

The handicapper has looked in charge since his last win and stamina is not assured.

Bit better last time but has stamina to prove and being 7lb wrong is no help.

On a good mark but cheekpieces are turned to after two below-par efforts.

Post Chaise backed up his victory over 3m here with a runner-up effort at Southwell and he should remain competitive off a 2lb higher rating. However, the vote goes to BENNY BALOO, who reached the frame at Hexham and has to compete off a 2lb higher figure now. Tim Easterby's seven-year-old should have no issues with this step up in trip and he can record his second course victory. Croagh Patrick completes the shortlist.

POST CHAISE arrives in good form, finding only a next-time-out winner too strong at Southwell on his latest outing, so he is taken to add to his tally back at this course. Ladronne could be the one to give the selection most to think about returned to this longer distance, with course-winner Benny Baloo also in the mix.

Post Chaise is probably the most likely winner but LADRONNE has a pull in the weights with him on their clash here in March.

(1) Jafimgoso 11/4, Left debut form well behind when landing an 11-runner event at Warwick last month, only needing to be kept up to his work. Clearly had something to spare and seems likely to do better still.

17:03 Market Rasen NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

Not So Sobers occupied the runner-up berth over track and trip on debut last month and, with normal improvement, he ought to go close. However, he could come out second best to JAFIMGOSO, who took a big leap forward from his first start when scoring by over three lengths at Warwick and he could have plenty more to offer. Dan Skelton's five-year-old can defy his 7lb penalty, while any market support for Screened would also be interesting.

SHADY WADEY has an appealing pedigree and made a promising start when fifth at Ludlow on debut, so he's taken to improve past the likes of Not So Sobers and the penalised Jafimgoso. Aviation looks the best of the newcomers.

The main form contenders are NOT SO SOBERS, Jafimgoso and Shady Wadey. Screened and Aviation are interesting newcomers.

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.
