1st (5)  (8/1 +11%)Can't Beat History |
8/1(+11%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Can't Beat History 8/1, Chase record is a positive one, including a win here last summer. Went in again at Hereford (25f) on reappearance last month but pulled up at Bangor since. Lower mark back hurdling. Ran poorly over fences this month but still looks quite interesting off lower hurdle mark. |
|||
2nd (9)  (14/1 +58%)Bullion Boss |
14/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Bullion Boss 14/1, Won over 3m at Musselburgh in January 2021 but hasn't shown much in 3 outings since returning from a long absence this spring. Needs a first-time visor (replacing cheekpieces) to make a difference. Yet to strike form since returning from long absence but on very dangerous mark now. |
|||
3rd (6)  (66/1 -100%)Konfusion |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Konfusion 66/1, Failed to improve for a step up to 2½m when only eighth of 11 on Bangor handicap debut in April. Still early days but he'll need to step up on his previous form to get heavily involved now stepping up in trip again. Soundly beaten when 33-1 for handicap debut in April; up in trip here. |
|||
4th (1)  (80/1 -2567%)Barrons Land |
80/1(-2567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Barrons Land 80/1, Improved since handicapping, winning around 2½m at Sedgefield and Bangor last month. Likely to make a bold bid for the hat-trick now stepping up in trip. 2-2 since switched to handicaps last month and likely to be suited by today's longer trip. |
|||
5th (2)  (12/1 -700%)Supreme Yeats |
12/1(-700%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Supreme Yeats 12/1, Made a winning start for Dan Skelton in 10-runner race at Stratford at the beginning of this month. Brought down at the third when sent off at odds-on favourite over 20.5f here since. Given another chance to show he's ahead of his mark. Won readily on this month's stable debut and was unlucky to be brought down last time. |
|||
6th (3)  (100/1 -1329%)The Wise Traveller |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) The Wise Traveller 100/1, Won around 3m at Huntingdon and Fakenham last season. Bounced back from a couple of lesser efforts when second of 6 back at Huntingdon 25 days ago. 2-6 for stable; no match for winner when second last month but still ran well; considered. |
|||
7th (11)  (100/1 -100%)Just Call Me Al |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Just Call Me Al 100/1, Veteran who won 3 times in 2021/22 season. Drawn a blank since, including finishing 14¼ lengths behind Supreme Yeats when sixth at Stratford latest. Didn't run badly at Stratford this month but remains difficult to enthuse over. |
|||
8th (8)  (100/1 -1150%)Timetotalk |
100/1(-1150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Timetotalk 100/1, Modest in bumpers and similar form over hurdles, although he did run well back from an absence when third in a 20.5f Southwell maiden 17 days ago. Excelled himself when third in 2m4f maiden this month and has a fighting chance here. |
|||
9th (4)  (100/1 -900%)Shantou Lucky |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Shantou Lucky 100/1, Winning hurdler/chaser in Ireland for Gavin Cromwell. First form for current connections when 13 lengths fourth of 10 at Perth (2½m) last month. Has handicapping scope if able to build on that. Regressive 7yo; latest run was a step back in right direction; needs to build on that here. |
|||
10th (7)  (80/1 -567%)Caughtinaspell |
80/1(-567%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Caughtinaspell 80/1, Little to get excited about in 5 outings for Michael Kennedy in Ireland and didn't fare much better on debut for new connections at Worcester 3 weeks ago. The longer trip now may help. though. Badly outpaced when fourth over 2m4f on stable debut; may fare better over this trip. |
|||
|PU| (10)  (100/1 -400%)Concrete King |
100/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Concrete King 100/1, Four-time winner between the flags but he's 0-21 under Rules and offered only minor promise when fifth of 7 over fences at Hexham on his recent first outing for this stable. Back over the smaller obstacles now. Not beaten far in a chase on stable debut but now 0-21 under rules. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SUPREME YEATS didn't get the chance to show his true worth when he was brought down at the third flight here a fortnight ago, but the Dan Skelton-trained gelding can quickly banish that memory if granted a trouble-free run. Better judged on his ready success at Stratford on his penultimate start, the selection is still attractively weighted and shades preference over Barrons Land, who is respected as a hat-trick seeker but faces a stiffer test over this longer trip. The Wise Traveller completes the shortlist.
SUPREME YEATS got taken out of the race through no fault of his own here last time and can show he's still on a good mark for his new stable. The hat-trick seeking Barrons Land looks the obvious threat ahead of Shantou Lucky.
This can go to SUPREME YEATS, who won with a bit left in the tank on his stable debut at Stratford this month.

1st (3)  (4/7 +53%)G A Henty |
4/7(+53%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) G A Henty 4/7, Fair hurdler got back on track when third of 13 in maiden hurdle at Warwick (19f, good to soft, 16/5) 22 days ago, staying on gradually. Leading claims back up in trip. Went close here on stable debut in January; best run since when third at Warwick in May. |
|||
2nd (1)  (9/1 -13%)A Definite Getaway |
9/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) A Definite Getaway 9/1, Fair form when runner-up both completed starts last season but has run poorly in 2 handicaps for current yard. Needs to bounce back in a big way. Second in four maidens for Ben Pauling in 2023 but has struggled on both stable starts. |
|||
3rd (5)  (10/3 -33%)School Days Over |
10/3(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) School Days Over 10/3, Fair maiden hurdler who made the perfect start over fences when seeing off 6 rivals at Hereford (21f, good) in November. Mixed bag since, pulling up at Stratford on most recent outing, but reverts to hurdling in an ordinary race. Pulled up after jumping poorly in recent chase but has strong claims if back on song here. |
|||
4th (8)  (66/1 -100%)Tiger's Song |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Tiger's Song 66/1, Malinas mare. Half-sister to 4 winners, including fairly useful 2½m chase winner Alpancho, stayed 23f, and fair hurdler Tigeralley, stayed 3m. Dual winning pointer, pulled up again last time (May 19). Pulled up in her last two points and makes very limited appeal on belated rules debut. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (66/1 -915%)Call Her Clever |
66/1(-915%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Call Her Clever 66/1, Little promise in 2 bumpers for David Pipe but easily won his completed start in points in April. Needs a market check on hurdle debut. Showed only minor promise in bumpers last year but won a point by 15l in April. |
|||
|PU| (2)  (100/1 -1438%)Cooler Than Me |
100/1(-1438%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Cooler Than Me 100/1, Ran to a fair level when runner-up in an Exeter bumper in March 2023. Went one better in a point the following month, though was brought on his latest start in that sphere (May 27). Makes hurdles debut for a new yard up in trip and the market may prove a good guide. Failed to complete two restricted points last month; best watched on hurdling debut. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (100/1 -203%)Kenny's Park |
100/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kenny's Park 100/1, £20,000 buy after finishing second in an Irish point in December but has finished tailed off in a pair of maiden hurdles. Second on Irish point debut in December but soundly beaten on both hurdling starts25. |
|||
|PU| (6)  (200/1 -400%)Southfield Star |
200/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Southfield Star 200/1, Went with no encouragement on his belated debut at Warwick 22 days ago. Tailed off when 50-1 for debut at Warwick (2m3f) three weeks ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
School Days Over sets the standard on the official ratings and is an interesting contender back over hurdles in a novice, while A Definite Getaway has gone well here in the past and is dangerous to rule out on these terms. However, preference is for G A HENTY, who has shown definite promise since joining his current yard and, having returned from a short break with a near miss at Warwick last month, the lightly-raced seven-year-old should be primed and ready for more suitable test of stamina.
G A HENTY bounced back to form when third at Warwick last month and, with the step back up in trip likely to suit, he's the percentage call to get off the mark. School Days Over ran no sort of race on his most recent outing over fences, but still needs considering back over the smaller obstacles judged on the pick of his form, while recent point winner Call Her Clever and Cooler Than Me need keeping an eye on in the betting.
The pick is SCHOOL DAYS OVER, who has a point to prove after running poorly in a chase last month but, on balance, has the best form.

1st (1)  (2/1 +0%)A Dublin Job |
2/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) A Dublin Job 2/1, Long-standing maiden over hurdles but new yard found the key to him to make winning chase debut at Huntingdon (19.8f) 31 days ago, asserting between last 2 and keeping on well. Feasible to think he can build on that now he's off the mark. Made all on last month's chasing debut at Huntingdon and might progress again here. |
|||
2nd (3)  (16/1 +0%)Hollington |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hollington 16/1, Dual winner in points who failed to make an impact making chase debut when pulled up at Catterick (19.2f) in January. Outpaced between 3 and 2 out and never figured back over hurdles here 2 weeks ago and not one to write off just yet returned to this sphere. Safely held over hurdles here this month but still unexposed under rules; not ruled out. |
|||
3rd (6)  (17/2 -21%)Miladygrace |
17/2(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Miladygrace 17/2, Made a positive start over fences during 2022/23 campaign, winning twice, latterly over C&D. Struggled over fences/hurdles last summer but mark has steadily eased ahead of return and Brian Hughes catches the eye. Off since 32l hurdle defeat in September but won over C&D under Brian Hughes last year. |
|||
4th (11)  (20/1 +20%)Mackie Dee |
20/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Mackie Dee 20/1, Hurdles winner at Uttoxeter in June 2022 but you have to go back to 2020 for when this 12-y-o registered his sole success over fences. Likely to find a few too good. Ran okay in first-time visor last month but well beaten since; now tries blinkers. |
|||
5th (5)  (100/1 -150%)Caro Des Flos |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Caro Des Flos 100/1, Veteran who registered back-to-victories here last winter. Mark rose considerably as a result and he's yet to fire since returning from a break. Best watched for the time being. Dual course winner in late 2023 but well below that form since returning from a break. |
|||
6th (7)  (100/1 -100%)Fromposttopillar |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Fromposttopillar 100/1, Poor form over hurdles and fared no better in pair of starts over fences late last year. Much more needed if he's to play a meaningful role back from 6 months off. Unexposed after only five starts but struggled in two handicap chases in November. |
|||
7th (10)  (100/1 -614%)Silver Atom |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Silver Atom 100/1, Tasted success on the Flat at Bath (11.6f) and largely run with credit over hurdles in recent months. Did perform well below best on latest outing at Fakenham (pulled up) and others preferred now chasing. Flat winner in September but 0-14 over hurdles; a risky option on this chasing debut. |
|||
8th (8)  (80/1 -700%)Reine Des Tartes |
80/1(-700%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Reine Des Tartes 80/1, Successful on last of 3 starts in points. Offered little in trio of quick-fire novice hurdle runs earlier this year but wouldn't be a great surprise to see her do better now tackling larger obstacles on handicap debut. Market should guide. Struggled in novice hurdles during the winter but her point win offers significant hope. |
|||
9th (4)  (100/1 -525%)Rafferty |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Rafferty 100/1, Fair chaser at best, winning twice in 2021/22 (including over C&D). Essentially struggled since, though HE did at least hint at a revival faced with an inadequate test when fourth at Southwell (15.8f) earlier this month. Each-way claims returned to this more suitable trip. C&D winner in 2021 but has regressed over the last couple of years; others preferred. |
|||
10th (12)  (100/1 -1011%)Ingleby Mackenzie |
100/1(-1011%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Ingleby Mackenzie 100/1, Fair handicap chaser in Ireland for Henry de Bromhead. Hasn't looked anything like the same force over hurdles/fences on these shores but he may be sharper for his recent hurdles return for new yard here 2 weeks ago. Ended 2023 in poor form but ran okay over hurdles for new stable here this month. |
|||
11th (2)  (100/1 -5219%)Imperial Rule |
100/1(-5219%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Imperial Rule 100/1, Placed in Irish points. Only hinted at promise on one of his 3 outings in novice hurdles but was much improved sent chasing/handicapping when scoring at Perth 5 weeks ago, deserving extra credit given he encountered a troubled passage. Big player from 4 lb higher mark. Improved to make winning chase/handicap debut at Perth last month; commands respect. |
|||
|PU| (9)  (100/1 -400%)Living's Boy An Co |
100/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Living's Boy An Co 100/1, Sole success from 30 NH runs came over C&D but he offered little on the back of wind surgery over 17f here 72 days ago, pulled up leaving home turn. Needs to leave that well behind to figure. C&D winner in 2022 but has very modest strike-rate and ran poorly here last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A DUBLIN JOB wasn't fully extended when winning over 2m4f at Huntingdon last month and rates a serious contender to follow up off just 6lb higher. The selection drops back a furlong but a similarly dominant effort from the front could make him hard to deal with here. Fellow last-time-out winner Imperial Rule is feared most from just a 4lb higher mark, while previous C&D winners Miladygrace and Rafferty can go well on these terms.
IMPERIAL RULE created an excellent impression (equipped with a first-time hood) when making a winning chase debut at Perth, able to overcome a troubled passage and quickening to lead close home. Completely unexposed in this sphere, he makes plenty of appeal in his follow-up bid from a 4 lb higher mark. Fellow chase debutant winner A Dublin Job is another with more to offer and he's the chief threat. The returning Miladygrace and Reines des Tartes are others worth a look.
The suggestion is INGLEBY MACKENZIE, who is very well handicapped and hinted at a possible return to form on his recent stable debut.

13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Callin Baton Rouge 13/2, Good second of 13 in handicap hurdle at Cartmel (17.2f, soft) 23 days ago on final run for Warren Greatrex. Needs considering for her new stable. Claimed after going close in selling handicap at Cartmel last month; enters calculations. |
|||
(7)  (16/1 -14%)Gaot |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Gaot 16/1, On a losing run but in good nick when last seen on the track over 2 years ago for Harry Fry. Has her fitness to prove on comeback for new handler. Well handicapped on placed form for Harry Fry but makes stable debut after 797-day absence. |
|||
1st (5)  (13/8 +46%)River Robe |
13/8(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) River Robe 13/8, Sole run for Max Young when onlyh sixth of 7 in handicap hurdle (10/3) at Hereford (16.2f, soft) 73 days ago. Handily weighted though if another yard switch sparks a resurgence after a wind op. Ex-Irish maiden; had wind op last month; looks interesting on debut for Dan Skelton. |
|||
2nd (1)  (9/2 -35%)Billams Legacy |
9/2(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Billams Legacy 9/2, It's now 11 runs since last win in 2020 but he is knocking on the door, second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Player. Runner-up on her last six appearances and ought to be right in the thick of things again. |
|||
3rd (9)  (7/1 +30%)Game Beaaa |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Game Beaaa 7/1, Course winner who posted a creditable third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Perth (16.2f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Can give another good account. Course winner last summer and returned from break with pleasing run last month. |
|||
4th (3)  (12/1 -71%)Bellbird |
12/1(-71%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bellbird 12/1, Fair maiden on the Flat in France for N. Clement who scored at Ludlow (15.8f) in May. Only fifth on handicap bow at Warwick since but sort to bounce back. Ludlow novice winner last month; shade disappointing on handicap debut but still unexposed. |
|||
5th (4)  (28/1 -460%)Vivid Pink |
28/1(-460%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Vivid Pink 28/1, Best effort in this sphere when second of 11 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Much respected on her handicap debut with few miles still on the clock. Clear second in Huntingdon maiden last month and open to more improvement in handicaps. |
|||
6th (12)  (40/1 -60%)Cellar Club |
40/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Cellar Club 40/1, Failed to build on earlier promise when a below-form fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, good) 20 days ago. Others appeal more. Unexposed 5yo who was placed over C&D on last month's handicap debut; considered. |
|||
7th (10)  (25/1 -108%)Vision Of Hope |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Vision Of Hope 25/1, Took this 12 months ago and comes here on the back of a respectable sixth of 11 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) 15 days ago. Can't be discounted. In form on the Flat this year and ran okay over hurdles this month but others preferred. |
|||
8th (6)  (28/1 -180%)Darting Rose |
28/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Darting Rose 28/1, Has hinted at promise, fourth of 7 in novice hurdle (12/1) at Southwell (15.8f, heavy) 30 days ago. Can take a step forward now going into handicaps. Shaped with promise in two Southwell maidens last month; handicap debut today. |
|||
|F| (11)  (80/1 -60%)Fllana Bay |
80/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Fllana Bay 80/1, Still a maiden and pulled up in novice hurdle at Kelso (16.2f, heavy) 6 months ago. Tongue strap goes back on with work to do. 0-11 over hurdles; absent since struggling in Kelso novice in November; look elsewhere. |
|||
|RR| (2)  (80/1 -100%)Sarceaux |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sarceaux 80/1, Won once over hurdles for Alexandra Dunn back in 2022 but refused to race over C&D on yard debut after 17 months off. Hard to warm to. Following a long absence, she refused to race on recent stable debut; too risky. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
After being beaten just a head over 2m1f at Cartmel last month, CALLIN BATON ROUGE can go one better. Charles and Adam Pogson's runner has been raised just 2lb for that effort which appears lenient. The consistent Billams Legacy is likely to pose the biggest threat to the selection after yet another second at Huntingdon last time, while Vivid Pink bumped into a progressive rival last time and she can be seen to better effect on her handicap bow.
BILLAMS LEGACY rates just the pick of these weights so is fancied to gain a deserved victory and end a run of six consecutive second placings. Handicap-debutante Vivid Pink appeals as the one to give Fergal O'Brien's mare most to do, although River Robe can also have a say now starting out for Dan Skelton after breathing surgery.
Dan Skelton's new recruit RIVER ROBE was given a wind op last month and gets the vote ahead of Billams Legacy.

11/1(-47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) A Different Kind 11/1, A multiple winner over hurdles and he completed a four-time over fences last summer. Should be sharper for a couple of runs at Perth and Bangor so respected for good yard. Won four small-field chases last summer but has not shown much since returning from break. |
|||
1st (5)  (14/1 -56%)Yccs Portocervo |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Yccs Portocervo 14/1, Arrives on a hat-trick after recent hunter chase wins at Kempton and Newton Abbot (21f, soft), going with enthusiasm. This is tougher but he's not dismissed. Won two hunter chases this spring but is back up to career-high mark for handicap return. |

2nd (7)  (12/1 +0%)Vintage Fizz |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Vintage Fizz 12/1, A two-time 2m4f winner last season who resumed from 5 months off with a solid third of 7 in handicap chase at Cartmel (21.2f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Not taken lightly off a 2 lb lower mark. Dual chase winner in 2023; ran quite in May, after break; left-handed tracks may suit best. |
|||
3rd (4)  (10/3 -11%)Mylesfromwicklow |
10/3(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Mylesfromwicklow 10/3, C&D winner who arrives on the back of a good second of 8 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, soft) 26 days ago, clear of rest. Since had breathing surgery and he's not taken lightly. C&D winner in March and ran big race in defeat last month; probably still on the upgrade. |
|||
4th (8)  (80/1 -471%)Saint Arvans |
80/1(-471%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Saint Arvans 80/1, Went backwards from his reappearance second when fifth of 6 in handicap chase at Perth (23.8f, good to firm) 12 days ago, going in snatches. This veteran needs to bounce back. Ran well last month, after a break, but well beaten since and remains on fairly tough mark. |
|||
5th (13)  (100/1 -900%)Mulberry Hill |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Mulberry Hill 100/1, A fairly useful 2m4f chase winner who should be sharper for her reappearance fifth over hurdles at Kempton (21f, good to soft) 46 days ago. Can make her presence felt back in this sphere. Contender if judged on Kempton win in November but arrives here with a bit to prove. |
|||
6th (10)  (100/1 -614%)Glory And Honour |
100/1(-614%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Glory And Honour 100/1, Bagged his second chase win at Doncaster in December and not disgraced since, third of 8 at Uttoxeter 26 days ago. Possibilities. Progressive and largely consistent over fences since joining Sam England last summer. |
|||
7th (12)  (100/1 -900%)Tardree |
100/1(-900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Tardree 100/1, Course winner who wasn't discredited when third of 8 in handicap chase at Fakenham (21.2f, good) 19 days ago. Shortlisted. Runs this track well and looked back in good nick at Fakenham last month; shortlisted. |
|||
8th (6)  (100/1 -150%)A Wave Of The Sea |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) A Wave Of The Sea 100/1, Useful handicap chaser for Joseph O'Brien in 2022/23. Yet to fire in five outings for his current yard despite falling in the weights so others appeal more. Yet to be placed after five starts for current stable but likely to revive at some stage. |
|||
9th (3)  (100/1 -1900%)Whistleinthedark |
100/1(-1900%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Whistleinthedark 100/1, C&D winner who shaped as if in good form when a non-staying ninth of 26 in Scottish Grand National at Ayr in April, going with enthusiasm. Enters calculations back in trip off an easing mark. Ran well for a long way in Scottish Grand National; sure to appreciate this ease in grade. |
|||
10th (1)  (80/1 -700%)Karl Philippe |
80/1(-700%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Karl Philippe 80/1, Useful handicap chaser who got back to winning ways at Kempton (24f) in May. Only fourth of 6 at Perth (23.8f, good to firm) 12 days ago though so more needed with cheekpieces added. Still on workable mark after last month's Kempton win but below that form recently. |
|||
11th (9)  (100/1 -525%)Killer Clown |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Killer Clown 100/1, Unreliable sort who is now 11 runs without a win. Posted a respectable third of 9 in handicap chase at Chepstow (19.4f, good) 56 days ago and needs to back it up with cheekpieces refitted. Ended last season with very respectable Chepstow third, but he's not the force of old. |
|||
12th (11)  (100/1 -1329%)Northern Bound |
100/1(-1329%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Northern Bound 100/1, Winless since 2022 but he comes here in good order, third of 8 in handicap chase at Aintree (19.9f, good to soft) 35 days ago. Weighted to go well eased 1 lb. Good-ground specialist with very good 7-21 strike-rate over fences; probably in the mix. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
A very open contest sees a chance taken on KARL PHILIPPE, who struggled to land a blow in the Perth Gold Cup last time, but this easier-looking assignment could see Fergal O'Brien's charge return to form. The nine-year-old scored in convincing fashion on his penultimate start over 3m at Kempton and a repeat of that effort would see him difficult to beat. Yccs Portocervo was a commanding winner of a hunter chase over 2m5f at Newton Abbot and this hat-trick seeker commands plenty of respect, while Mylesfromwicklow should also be thereabouts.
Lots with chances. WHISTLEINTHEDARK can boast a C&D success and has slipped to a handy-looking mark so edges the vote with this return to a shorter trip also in his favour. Dan Skelton's Mylesfromwicklow is feared most, especially if a breathing op ekes out some improvement, while Northern Bound and Vintage Fizz are both weighted to have a say too. Mulberry Hill completes the shortlist after her recent spin over hurdles.
Progressive 6yo MYLESFROMWICKLOW (nap) followed his C&D win in March with a clear second at Uttoxeter last month and gets the nod.

1st (5)  (11/1 -10%)Warner's Cross |
11/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Warner's Cross 11/1, Still winless but he arrives in good nick, fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good) 25 days ago. Not discounted. Close third over C&D (good) last month; slightly disappointing at Huntingdon 17 days later. |
|||
2nd (8)  (6/1 -20%)Zuul |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Zuul 6/1, Ran to a fair level in bumpers for Michael Appleby in 2022. Off 18 months subsequently but first encouraging effort for this yard when third in a C&D handicap a fortnight ago. Big player. Third of nine over C&D (good) two weeks ago was easily his most competitive hurdles run. |
|||
3rd (2)  (10/11 +17%)Climate Precedent |
10/11(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Climate Precedent 10/11, Fair maiden on the Flat for Michael Bell who failed to progress in this sphere for James Owen. Looked a different proposition when forging clear to take a Stratford handicap on debut for this yard 3 days ago and looks well up to defying the penalty. Wind op and debut for D Skelton for comfortable win at Stratford (2m, good) three days ago. |
|||
4th (3)  (20/1 -100%)Kajaki |
20/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Kajaki 20/1, Won at Sedgefield and Perth in 2022/23. Lost his way towards the end of last year but returned with a more encouraging effort (should come on for it) at Kelso last time. Not ruled out. Won off 4lb higher at Perth (2m4f, good to soft) last April; may have needed latest run. |
|||
5th (9)  (100/1 -300%)Fox's Socks |
100/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Fox's Socks 100/1, It's been a while since his sole win over hurdles and arrives on the back of two poor runs. Mixed signals but he has been placed twice this year; pulled up on latest start. |
|||
6th (10)  (20/1 -400%)Getaway With You |
20/1(-400%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Getaway With You 20/1, Hit and miss for Paul Webber but stated out well for this yard in a first-time visor when second at Uttoxeter 26 days ago. May do better still and warrants respect. 3rd at Huntingdon (2m5f, good) in March; 2nd at Uttoxeter (2m4f, soft) for new connections. |
|||
7th (7)  (25/1 -108%)Fixed Wing |
25/1(-108%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Fixed Wing 25/1, No better than mid-field in a pair of bumpers and yet to make a serious impact over hurdles, albeit unsuited by the way things developed on handicap debut at Warwick 22 days ago. More required. Came from a detached last of six to finish 11l fourth on handicap debut at Warwick (2m5f). |
|||
8th (4)  (66/1 -100%)Jassur Des Brosses |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jassur Des Brosses 66/1, Tenth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Wexford (17f, good to soft, 11/1) 23 days ago. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Ms Margaret Mullins. Hard to make any sort of case for. Mild promise in bumpers; well beaten in 3 maiden hurdles and 2m1f handicap, all in the mud. |
|||
9th (11)  (14/1 +13%)Getaway Cory |
14/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Getaway Cory 14/1, Long-standing maiden who was below form when last seen 18 months ago and hasn't been seen since. Has left Kayley Woollacott. 0-23 over hurdles but plenty of placed form in 2022; won his last two points this spring. |
|||
|F| (1)  (100/1 -300%)Snookered |
100/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Snookered 100/1, Multiple scorer for Brian Ellison but you have to go back to July 2022 for his latest success and he has offered little for this stable. Long layoff before this season; showed a bit three weeks ago on second run back. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CLIMATE PRECEDENT made a winning stable debut for Dan Skelton at Stratford on Tuesday when scoring with a fair amount in hand and the four-year-old is expected to be a tough nut to crack once again, despite shouldering a 7lb penalty. Getaway With You chased home a Skelton inmate on his first run for new connections at Uttoxeter last month and may well do the same on this occasion. Warner's Cross and Getaway Cory appeal most of the remainder.
CLIMATE PRECEDENT travelled smoothly and easily went clear when making a winning start for this yard at Stratford earlier in the week and, if the race doesn't come too soon, he should be able to brush aside a penalty. Getaway With You also arrives on the back of a positive start for a new yard and Zuul is one to consider.
Tuesday's Stratford winner Climate Precedent could be all the rage. GETAWAY CORY is a slightly speculative alternative.

(2)  (12/1 -100%)Fine By Her |
12/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fine By Her 12/1, Benefited from a return to hurdling when scoring at Fakenham but he's not the most consistent and would need another career best to follow up. Never took to fences but appreciated the return to hurdling when winning by 2l at Fakenham. |
|||
1st (8)  (7/2 +22%)Chemical Warfare |
7/2(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Chemical Warfare 7/2, Not long with this yard and was closing in third (looked a threat) when falling at the last over fences at Worcester 20 days ago. Lower in the weights over hurdles and merits respect. Might have defied a 10lb higher mark over fences last time but for falling late on. |
|||
2nd (9)  (22/1 +12%)Lenebane |
22/1(+12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Lenebane 22/1, Maiden hurdler who hasn't been firing lately, so others are more persuasive. Has run the odd fair race in handicaps but beaten 20l and 25l in her last two. |
|||
3rd (6)  (22/1 -83%)Fenney Brook |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Fenney Brook 22/1, Form has dipped lately and, while his mark is sliding as a consequence, she's not threatening to take advantage. Has lost her way but could stage a revival following wind surgery; on a good mark. |
|||
4th (1)  (6/4 +0%)Spot On Soph |
6/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Spot On Soph 6/4, Strong in the market and suited by the step back up in trip when scoring comfortably over C&D a week ago and makes most appeal as he bids for the follow up. Did it quite comfortably over C&D last week and she escapes a penalty for that. |
|||
5th (10)  (33/1 -32%)Hope Hill |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Hope Hill 33/1, Well beaten in bumpers and yet to show much over hurdles. Worth a market check on handicap debut. Not shown much at all but this drier surface could trigger something on handicap debut. |
|||
6th (4)  (33/1 -65%)We Got Your Back |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) We Got Your Back 33/1, Winless following half-a-dozen attempts over hurdles and hasn't taken to chasing. Return to this sphere should help but he has something to prove. The ground was soft/heavy when twice runner-up over hurdles earlier this year. |
|||
7th (5)  (6/1 +0%)Crossbeau |
6/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Crossbeau 6/1, 9/2, respectable fourth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, good) 22 days ago. Holding form well and should be on the premises again. 19-race maiden and not progressing but hasn't run badly in 2m4f handicaps at Ffos Las. |
|||
8th (3)  (25/1 -25%)Denable |
25/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Denable 25/1, Potentially well treated in this sphere but followed a poor Flat run with a similarly underwhelming effort over hurdles at Worcester recently. Something to prove. Needed to run better back over jumps at Worcester to be backed with any confidence. |
|||
9th (7)  (7/1 -17%)Bensini |
7/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Bensini 7/1, Hurdles winner who has made a good start in this sphere, again finding only one too good at Southwell (20.4f) in October. Would have hit the frame but for unseating at Worcester over fences recently, so arrives in form. Every chance when unseating two out at Worcester (chase) when returning from a break. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Fine By Her relished the switch back to hurdles when a surprise winner at Fakenham at the start of the month and she is capable of being in the mix off a 4lb higher mark. Chemical Warfare and Bensini were both in contention when coming to grief late on at Worcester over fences and the pair are both of interest reverting to timber. However, the claims of SPOT ON SOPH are difficult to ignore, with the eight-year-old having won a conditional jockeys' event over C&D last week. She is 6lb well-in and should go well.
SPOT ON SOPH was better than ever when winning here a week ago and could defy a rise in a thin race. Chemical Warfare is a danger back over hurdles and Crossbeau should give another good account.
David Pipe's CHEMICAL WARFARE might well have defied a 10lb higher mark over fences three weeks ago but for coming down late on.

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.
