Races & Results Saturday 30th September 2023
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(1) Casa No Mento 1/2, Cheap purchase who looked a good prospect when landing a Hereford bumper and narrowly denied in listed company at Sandown next time. Well held in 20-runner Nickel Coin at Aintree on final outing but still an interesting newcomer to hurdles. Close second in a Listed bumper in March; ought to be hard to beat on hurdle debut.
2
2nd (2) (4/1 +11%) Come On Du Berlais
4
4/1(+11%)
(2) Come On Du Berlais 4/1, Bumper winner for Gordon Elliott. Has given trouble at the start but has been placed all 3 starts over hurdles in the UK without fully matching the pick of her Irish form. Placed on five of her six hurdling starts but her form isn't anything to go wild about.
4
3rd (4) (7/2 -5%) Our Nel
3.5
7/2(-5%)
(4) Our Nel 7/2, Fair form shown in bumpers and ran to a similar level when second of 6 on Worcester hurdle debut (2m) in August. Could do with settling better but still respected. Kept on past Come On Du Berlais to take second on hurdling debut; can improve.
3
4th (3) (28/1 -40%) On Se Calme
28
28/1(-40%)
(3) On Se Calme 28/1, Off mark in Irish point at second attempt but well held in a bumper/novice hurdle under Rules. Irish point winner; struggled on both rules starts; had wind op during the summer.
6
5th (6) (66/1 -65%) Inkwell
66
66/1(-65%)
(6) Inkwell 66/1, Intello filly. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (2m winner) Cops And Robbers. Dropped away over 2f out in a Wetherby bumper on January's debut and again showed little on the back of a breathing op/11-week break switched to hurdles at Huntingdon. Off 6 months. Well-beaten 66-1 shot on hurdling debut in March; not seen again since.
5
|RO| (5) (80/1 -789%) Riccirella
80
80/1(-789%)
(5) Riccirella 80/1, Showed fair form when reaching the frame in a pair of Southwell bumpers in June. Offered little on Flat debut at Carlisle the following month and subsequently sold from Michael Dods for £16,000. Tongue tied for hurdle bow. Made the frame in two run-of-the-mill bumpers in June; more needed on stable/hurdle debut.
LTO Selection:
14:14 Market Rasen Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
OUR NEL (second) had Come On Du Berlais (third) a length behind when runner-up at Worcester on her hurdles debut last month, and she is taken to go one better this time around. A creditable second in a Listed bumper at Sandown in March, Casa No Mento disappointed at Aintree but appeals as a strong candidate for the Nigel Twiston-Davies team to go to war with this season.
CASA NO MENTO showed more than enough in bumpers last season to suggest she's up to winning a race of this nature over hurdles, so she's a straightforward choice. Our Nel could do with settling down, but she showed ability again sent hurdling when second at Worcester last month and seems likely to provide the main threat.
Close second in a Listed bumper in March, CASA NO MENTO ought to be too good for this field if she jumps adequately.
(3) Max Of Stars 6/4, Has taken really well to hurdling, landing a third success from 5 starts in this sphere when making all in handicap company at Stratford (16.3f) 3 weeks ago. Entitled to find this tougher back against fellow 3-y-os but she's evidently thriving. Better over hurdles than on the Flat, winning three of her four races; not out of it.
5
2nd (5) (16/1 -14%) Balboa
16
16/1(-14%)
(5) Balboa 16/1, Fair maiden on the Flat who ran below that level when third on hurdles bow at Cartmel (17.2f) 33 days ago. However, still early days and yard do well with their recruits in this sphere, so not one to be writing off. Fair on the Flat; well beaten third on jumps debut at Cartmel; improvement needed.
2
3rd (2) (9/4 -88%) Our Boy Wes
2.25
9/4(-88%)
(2) Our Boy Wes 9/4, Fair maiden on the Flat who justified market support to open his account at first attempt in a Juvenile maiden hurdle at Ballinrobe (16.6f) last month. Shade disappointing back on the level since but he certainly remains the type to do better in this sphere for shrewd Irish yard. Fair Flat handicapper; beat subsequent winner when winning on hurdles debut; chance.
1
4th (1) (10/3 +17%) Two Past Eight
3.333333
10/3(+17%)
(1) Two Past Eight 10/3, Fair maiden on Flat who has made a bright start over hurdles, defying a penalty in good style to make it 2 from 3 in this sphere in a Fontwell Juvenile (17.7f) 3 weeks ago, staying on well. Concedes weight all round here but expected to feature again in a first-time visor. Fair Flat handicapper who is two out of three over hurdles; new headgear; chance.
8
5th (8) (100/1 +0%) Northern Rose
100
100/1(+0%)
(8) Northern Rose 100/1, Glimmer of promise to glean from hurdles debut effort at Killarney (17f) in July but offered little either side on the level, including on debut for new yard at Southwell (11.1f) 24 days ago. Easy enough to look elsewhere returning to timber. Ex-Irish; modest form so far including on hurdles debut in July; others stronger.
4
6th (4) (12/1 +0%) Vitani
12
12/1(+0%)
(4) Vitani 12/1, Offered little on the Flat but she left her hurdles debut effort in her wake when successful at Stratford (16.3f) in July and put experience to good use to follow up at Uttoxeter later that month. Never figured in listed company in France latest though, and this a tough enough ask. Front runner; improved on debut run to win twice in good style; stiff task last time.
7
7th (7) (20/1 -43%) Ironopolis
20
20/1(-43%)
(7) Ironopolis 20/1, Fair on Flat (stays 1½m) but possibly better on AW than turf. Likely needed initial experience when last of 3 in a Perth Juvenile hurdle (16.2f) 19 days ago but this rates an even tougher assignment. 1m4f Tapeta winner on the Flat; last of three on hurdles debut (soft); more needed.
6
8th (6) (50/1 -150%) Finn Russell
50
50/1(-150%)
(6) Finn Russell 50/1, Fair maiden on the Flat who has been operating below his best in handful of starts upon joining present yard this summer. Likely best watched now attentions switch to this discipline. Tongue strap on 1st time. Fair form at 2 but modest efforts this term; best watched on jumps debut; tongue-tie on.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
An easy winner at Fontwell last time out, TWO PAST EIGHT has made a terrific start to his career in this sphere and Alan King's charge should be open to further improvement on just his fourth outing. Irish raider Our Boy Wes made a positive impression on his hurdles bow at Ballinrobe and must enter calculations, along with Max Of Stars, who has won three of her five starts over hurdles.
OUR BOY WES was below his best on the Flat at the Cork 31 days ago, yet he'd previously impressed when making a winning hurdles debut at Ballinrobe in August and, with improvement anticipated in this sphere, he gets the nod to come out on top for his shrewd Irish stable. Max of Stars and Two Past Eight are both going the right way themselves over timber and can provide the lead threats.
In an interesting juvenile contest it could pay to side with OUR BOY WES, whose trainer does so well with his runners in Britain.
(1) Great D'Ange 12/1, Back to winning ways when taking 8-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon in December (23.6f, good to soft). Disappointed since, however, and since sold from Tom George only £2,500 in August. 2,500gns buy in August; 2m7f winner in December 2022; poor form since; plenty to prove.
8
2nd (8) (10/1 +17%) Deadly Missile
10
10/1(+17%)
(8) Deadly Missile 10/1, Point winner who has bettered his bumper/hurdles form tackling fences first 2 starts. However, looked a hard ride at Uttoxeter and heavy fall at Stratford since. 2 lb out of handicap. Winning Irish pointer; fell first last time; in fair form prior to that; 2lb wrong; chance.
4
3rd (4) (16/5 -42%) Tedwin Hills
3.2
16/5(-42%)
(4) Tedwin Hills 16/5, Lightly-raced maiden over hurdles who made a decent start over fences when second in handicap at Southwell 3 weeks ago, clear of rest. Up in trip (bred to stay). Open to improvement so big shout off same mark. 0-8; creditable second at Southwell on chase debut (2m4f); a possible on first run at 3m.
5
4th (5) (10/3 -11%) Can't Beat History
3.333333
10/3(-11%)
(5) Can't Beat History 10/3, Made second chase start a winning one here (21.4f) last month, dominating. Badly hampered and unseated fourth at Uttoxeter since. Remains of interest. Off the mark when 2m5f winner off 7lb lower here last month; seems to stay 3m; a possible.
2
5th (2) (17/2 -6%) Young Wolf
8.5
17/2(-6%)
(2) Young Wolf 17/2, Multiple hurdles/chase winner who has dropped a long way in the weights and confirmed previous promise when winning weak event over C&D. Struggled back down in trip next time but return to this distance will suit. Beat Lough Salt over C&D 2 runs back; only 3rd last time (2m3f); return to 3m will suit.
7
6th (7) (14/1 +30%) Lough Salt
14
14/1(+30%)
(7) Lough Salt 14/1, Successful twice in 3m Doncaster handicap chases in early-2022 but form patchy since, well held at Uttoxeter latest. 2 lb out of handicap. Good 2nd to Young Wolf over C&D last month; well beaten last time; others preferred.
3
7th (3) (7/1 -17%) Another Mystery
7
7/1(-17%)
(3) Another Mystery 7/1, Back to form when winning last 2 starts over hurdles (subsequently sold from Lucy Wadham 15,000 gns). Not taken lightly back over fences after a break. 15,000gns buy in July; two hurdles wins this year; poor efforts last 3 chase starts.
9
8th (9) (12/1 +25%) Abington Park
12
12/1(+25%)
(9) Abington Park 12/1, Runner-up twice over fences at Hexham last September. Below that level since, however. 2 lb out of handicap. Two fair runs last September; poor since; plenty to prove from 2lb out of the handicap..
6
|PU| (6) (13/2 +7%) Barely Famous
6.5
13/2(+7%)
(6) Barely Famous 13/2, Dual hurdles winner this time last year for this yard but has made a discouraging start to her chasing career this summer. Back with Ryan Potter. Dual fast-ground winning hurdler last autumn; not quite so good since, last 3 over fences.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A comfortable winner here over shorter on his penultimate start, CAN'T BEAT HISTORY unseated the rider early in the contest when favourite at Uttoxeter last time. He can bounce back to winning ways on this occasion, with Tedwin Hills looking best placed to chase him home on the back of a promising chase debut at Southwell. Young Wolf has strong claims on his penultimate effort.
TEDWIN HILLS made a promising start over fences when runner-up at Southwell, pulling clear of the rest, and can go one better off the same mark with improvement on the cards. Can't Beat History was unfortunate to unseat his rider at Uttoxteter and rates the main threat having been an emphatic winner here the time before.
This low-grade chase can go to TEDWIN HILLS who was a good second over 2m4f at Southwell on his chase debut last time.
(5) Found On 10/1, Completed a 5-timer in small fields at Cheltenham last October. Pulled up both starts since though at Bangor and Huntingdon so this C&D winner has something to prove after 8 months off. Won five in a row in 2022 but then struggled in two Listed races; back from a layoff.
10
2nd (10) (25/1 -56%) Fairfield Ferrata
25
25/1(-56%)
(10) Fairfield Ferrata 25/1, Dual hurdles winner but already better over fences, supplementing her Fakenham success at Uttoxeter in January. Beat only rival at Cheltenham when last seen in April though so she needs to hit the ground running here. Took well to chasing last season but not seen since 49l defeat at Cheltenham in April.
12
3rd (12) (9/2 +50%) One True King
4.5
9/2(+50%)
(12) One True King 9/2, Took this 12 months ago but he came in last of 7 in handicap chase (8/1) at this course (23.9f, good to soft) 141 days ago. Yard is going well though so no surprise to see him return to form. Out of form when last seen in the spring but won this off 5lb higher last year.
11
4th (11) (9/1 +0%) Fix At All
9
9/1(+0%)
(11) Fix At All 9/1, Landed a brace of hunters at Ludlow at the end of last season for Michael Scudamore and performed well on yard debut when runner-up in Market Rasen handicap chase in June. However, not been in same form since and has something to prove at present. Good second over C&D on stable debut in June but two lesser efforts have followed.
4
5th (4) (13/2 +19%) Killer Clown
6.5
13/2(+19%)
(4) Killer Clown 13/2, Unreliable type but he ran one of his better races when fifth of 12 in handicap chase at Worcester (23f, good to soft) 39 days ago. Needs to back it up now. Good claims if judged on Uttoxeter third in May but has become unreliable.
6
6th (6) (15/2 -50%) Vintage Fizz
7.5
15/2(-50%)
(6) Vintage Fizz 15/2, Made it 2-3 over fences this season with a career best in 4-runner handicap at Bangor (20.3f, good) 25 days ago. Up 4 lb but he's a player in his current mood. Beat three rivals at Bangor this month and now 2-3 over fences; might still be improving.
3
7th (3) (22/1 -57%) Prince Escalus
22
22/1(-57%)
(3) Prince Escalus 22/1, Useful chaser who gained a third win in that sphere in 2m Wetherby handicap in February. Only seventh at Ascot in April when last seen out so needs to get back on track after a break. Good 1m7f winner in February but not seen since a disappointing run in April.
1
8th (1) (6/1 +14%) Francky Du Berlais
6
6/1(+14%)
(1) Francky Du Berlais 6/1, C&D winner who posted a creditable third of 6 in handicap chase at Worcester (20f, good to soft) 12 days ago. Back to a potentially lenient mark so needs considering. Dual winner of C&D Summer Plate; not at best lately but on a good mark now.
9
9th (9) (20/1 -67%) Quoi De Neuf
20
20/1(-67%)
(9) Quoi De Neuf 20/1, Resumed winning ways in 4-runner chase at Fakenham in June but he failed to beat a rival at Cartmel following month. Needs to bounce back. Won two-finisher race by a neck in June but was well beaten the following month.
2
10th (2) (15/2 -15%) Presentandcounting
7.5
15/2(-15%)
(2) Presentandcounting 15/2, Dual chase winner at Ffos Las and Perth this summer but only fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Stratford (19.4f, good) 37 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Good-ground specialist with excellent strike-rate; didn't fire on latest outing, though.
7
|PU| (7) (8/1 +0%) Saint Arvans
8
8/1(+0%)
(7) Saint Arvans 8/1, Scored at Perth in June and in good form since, second of 5 in 3m handicap there 19 days ago. Can go well again off the same mark. In career-best form in recent months, including very respectable fifth in C&D Summer Plate.
8
|PU| (8) (12/1 -71%) Dead Right
12
12/1(-71%)
(8) Dead Right 12/1, C&D scorer but off the track since landing 5-runner handicap chase at Taunton (23f) 7 months ago. Has won off a break though so not dismissed. Lightly raced 11yo; won this race in 2020 and was very close second in it last year.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
DEAD RIGHT showed a liking for first-time cheekpieces when last seen in February, as he went in by half a length in this grade and was only raised 1lb for that success. If he is ready to roll on his return from a break, he could record a double, with the booking of Harry Cobden a big plus. Vintage Fizz did it well over an extended 2m4f at Bangor earlier in the month and has to be respected, while Quoi De Neuf is far from out of it.
This looks wide open but VINTAGE FIZZ has started out really well in this sphere so is taken to make it 3-4 on the back of his cosy Bangor success. The consistent Saint Arvans is next on the list with Francky du Berlais, Fix At All and One True King all in the mix too.
He was out of form when last seen in the spring but ONE TRUE KING (nap) won this race after a break last year and can repeat the dose.
(5) Liverpool Knight 5/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¾m) and a dual winner over hurdles in July. Couple of sound efforts in defeat since, including a handicap, but he will need some improvement to overcome this mark. Won 2 novice hurdles; closely matched with Castel Gandolfo on Perth h'cap form; a possible.
2
2nd (2) (9/2 +31%) Castel Gandolfo
4.5
9/2(+31%)
(2) Castel Gandolfo 9/2, Career best when winning 5-runner handicap at Kelso (2m, good to firm) in May. Also a good second in the Summer Hurdle over C&D in July and not far off that level when third at Perth last month. Kelso winner on fast ground in May; two good efforts on last two starts; a chance.
10
3rd (10) (10/1 +29%) Chance A Tune
10
10/1(+29%)
(10) Chance A Tune 10/1, Fair winning hurdles in 2021 but has a 2-year absence to overcome here. A watching brief is advised unless the betting hints otherwise. Novice winner in 2021; on a good mark back after 759-day break; worth a market check.
3
4th (3) (10/3 +5%) Coolnaugh Haze
3.333333
10/3(+5%)
(3) Coolnaugh Haze 10/3, Improved when making a winning start for new trainer James Owen at Worcester (2m, good to soft) last month. Even a 10 lb rise may not stop him with further progress likely for this stable. Ex-Philip Hobbs; easy winner on stable debut; up 10lb in a better race; one with a chance.
1
5th (1) (15/2 +0%) Glorious Zoff
7.5
15/2(+0%)
(1) Glorious Zoff 15/2, Rejuvenated following a breathing operation, winning 2m Warwick handicap in May. Placed on his next 2 completed starts and latest Uttoxeter fourth was another creditable effort. Warwick winner in May; some fair efforts since, including a second over C&D; a possible.
7
6th (7) (9/1 -13%) Simply Red
9
9/1(-13%)
(7) Simply Red 9/1, Enhanced excellent Bangor record with 2 more wins there last month, the latter under today's pilot Charlie Maggs. Another fine effort when 1¼ lengths second of 7 to the reopposing Enthused at Uttoxeter (2m, good to soft) 17 days ago. In good form with two wins at Bangor and a close 2nd to Enthused at Uttoxeter; a contender.
11
7th (11) (25/1 -14%) Stonific
25
25/1(-14%)
(11) Stonific 25/1, Won the Summer Handicap over C&D for David O'Meara in July 2021but doesn't look anything like the force of old based on his recent hurdle/Flat efforts. C&D winner in 2021; not run as well since (well beaten last hurdles start); on a good mark.
9
8th (9) (12/1 -33%) Addosh
12
12/1(-33%)
(9) Addosh 12/1, Now 5 lb lower than when scoring at Southwell last June and she arrives on the back of a creditable second in a small field at Southwell 11 days ago. Placed in mares' handicaps on last two starts; well treated, but this looks stronger.
6
9th (6) (13/2 -44%) Enthused
6.5
13/2(-44%)
(6) Enthused 13/2, Another from his stable who has thrived this year and arrives on a hat-trick after a pair of 2m wins at Uttoxeter in recent weeks. Further 3 lb rise is unlikely to prevent him making a bold bid. Progressive; won two 2m Uttoxeter handicaps on last two starts; up another 3lb; chance.
8
10th (8) (22/1 -22%) Princess T
22
22/1(-22%)
(8) Princess T 22/1, Won over hurdles on Jersey in July but more miss than hit on the Flat in Britain since. Others arrive with more pressing claims. Won in Jersey in July (firm); mixed form on the Flat since; others stronger.
4
11th (4) (33/1 -106%) Mcgroarty
33
33/1(-106%)
(4) Mcgroarty 33/1, Smart chaser at his best and still quite useful, winning twice over hurdles in France in July. Was well held at Auteuil last time, though. Formerly a smart chaser; 3 hurdle wins in France for this yard (two in July); interesting.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
ENTHUSED had Simply Red (second) and Glorious Zoff (fourth) behind when going in by just over a length at Uttoxeter latest and, considering the manner of his victory, he could easily confirm that form to record the double. Coolnaugh Haze was an easy winner of a class 4 event last time and he could take a step forward to get involved, while Castel Gandolfo rates best of the rest.
James Owen holds a very strong hand, with COOLNAUGH HAZE taken to build on last month's Worcester success and make it 2-2 for the yard. His stablemate Enthused can confirm recent Uttoxeter superiority over Simply Red and give him most to think about.
The progressive ENTHUSED is taken to complete a hat-trick by beating his stable companion Coolnaugh Haze and Castel Gandolfo.
(9) Prospect House 6/1, Mixed record over hurdles and pulled up over fences at Hexham last time. Bit to prove for all that the return to this sphere should help. C&D second here last month; respected if losing action on chase debut since is forgiven.
3
2nd (3) (5/1 +9%) Man Of The Sea
5
5/1(+9%)
(3) Man Of The Sea 5/1, On a fair mark and ran well on last hurdling outing in June. Below form on Flat at Goodwood recently but can't be dismissed returning to this sphere. Only just above his last winning mark; chance unless conditions turn slower than good.
5
3rd (5) (17/2 +29%) Captain Jack
8.5
17/2(+29%)
(5) Captain Jack 17/2, Remains a maiden after 22 NH runs. Sixth of 7 in novice selling hurdle at Exeter (18.5f, soft, 5/1) 172 days ago. Likely to need this, so others make more appeal. 0-22, though went close in a Stratford seller in April; doubt ground will be soft enough.
7
4th (7) (16/1 +36%) Green Planet
16
16/1(+36%)
(7) Green Planet 16/1, Fair on the Flat but hurdling efforts for Alan King were uninspiring on the whole and has failed to offer more encouragement for current yard. Hard to fancy back from 6 months off. Nearly two years since his peak hurdling efforts; wind surgery since poor start to 2023.
1
5th (1) (9/1 +0%) Eagle's Realm
9
9/1(+0%)
(1) Eagle's Realm 9/1, Dual winner at Stratford last summer. Has made a good start for his new yard, respectable fourth at Bangor 40 days ago. Not discounted. In good heart for new trainer, but looks a place rather than win proposition at present..
6
6th (6) (5/2 +29%) Flashy Boy
2.5
5/2(+29%)
(6) Flashy Boy 5/2, Point winner who has offered signs of encouragement over inadequate trips so far over hurdles. Likely improver upped in distance after a break and he could be worth chancing. Fair opening mark; up in trip, but question of whether even further would suit better.
2
7th (2) (5/1 -82%) Shuil Donn
5
5/1(-82%)
(2) Shuil Donn 5/1, First run since leaving Dr Richard Newland when 11/1, career best when winning 8-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (15.8f, good to firm) 23 days ago, well on top finish. Should go well again. Easy Southwell scorer on seasonal/handicap/stable debut (2m, good); Brian Hughes up again.
10
8th (10) (11/1 +31%) Horizon Dove
11
11/1(+31%)
(10) Horizon Dove 11/1, Well held in maiden/novice hurdles but made a slightly bigger impact when fourth at Southwell on handicap debut. Longer trip should suit but she's out of the weights. Present trip requirements over hurdles not entirely clear; 3lb out of the weights here.
4
9th (4) (33/1 +50%) Wicklow Flyer
33
33/1(+50%)
(4) Wicklow Flyer 33/1, Winner of a Bellewstown claimer on final start for Gordon Elliott last August but she has offered precious little since, including for current connections. No form since her Irish claiming hurdle win (2m4f, good) not much more than a year ago.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SHUIL DONN was quite a taking winner on his handicap debut at Southwell earlier in the month and Paul Collins' inmate might be able to defy a 10lb rise in the ratings. Balranald appreciated the switch to more positive tactics when collared late on at Kelso recently. The son of Mastercraftsman is dangerous to discount and may emerge as the chief threat to the selection, ahead of Man Of The Sea.
FLASHY BOY hasn't made much impact over hurdles as yet but he's been allotted a lowly mark for a point winner and the step up in distance should help, so he's worth taking a chance on. Shuil Donn is an obvious danger and Man of The Sea can't be ruled out.
Immediately reunited with Brian Hughes, SHUIL DONN can defy a 10lb rise for his Southwell romp, ahead of Prospect House.
(2) Fazayte 3.5/1, Made it 2-4 over fences when scoring at Haydock during the spring. No impact back from a break on the Flat recently but that spin will have blown away any cobwebs and he's one to consider back hurdling at a course where he goes well. Did well last season and switches back to racing over jumps on a workable mark; respected.
8
2nd (8) (7/1 +30%) Misty Mani
7
7/1(+30%)
(8) Misty Mani 7/1, Completed the hat-trick when landing this race off a 1 lb lower mark 12 months ago. Creditable second in a Class 2 handicap back from a break at Musselburgh in March but form has taken a turn for the worse since. Has rather mixed record since winning this race in 2022 but still worth considering.
3
3rd (3) (9/1 -29%) My Brother Jack
9
9/1(-29%)
(3) My Brother Jack 9/1, Modest Flat winner who found only one too good on his first 3 starts over hurdles. Wasn't disgraced when fifth of 8 on handicap debut in this sphere at Bangor (16.7f, good) last time and not ruled out off a 2 lb lower mark here. 0-6 over hurdles but ran quite well on handicap debut and this step up in trip should suit.
9
4th (9) (18/1 +55%) High Yield
18
18/1(+55%)
(9) High Yield 18/1, Didn't show much in bumpers and again failed to land a blow over hurdles when seventh of 14 in the C&D handicap won by Game Beaaa last month. Ran well to a point over C&D last month but this modest maiden is not the obvious answer.

5th (7) (9/2 +25%) Game Beaaa
4.5
9/2(+25%)
(7) Game Beaaa 9/2, Has share of temperament/jumping issues but finally put it together when a smooth winner over C&D last month. Wasn't in the same form at Kelso next time, though, and she'll probably find one or two too good. Won quite stylishly from off the pace over C&D last month; high on the list.

6th (6) (9/2 +25%) Rhodia
4.5
9/2(+25%)
(6) Rhodia 9/2, Runner-up twice in bumpers and while he has yet to make a significant impact over hurdles, the handicapper has been quick to show mercy and he's dangerous to discount. Didn't run badly when fifth over C&D last month but 3lb drop not quite enough to tempt.

7th (4) (11/1 -120%) G'Day Aussie

11/1(-120%)
(4) G'Day Aussie 11/1, Tailed off when returning from a lengthy absence in June but showed the benefit of that pipe-opener when striking at Worcester (2m, good to soft) the following month. Winner of this race (off this mark) in 2021 and he's a major player. Won this race in 2021 and was also successful on latest outing in July; in the mix.

8th (5) (22/1 -10%) Just Hannah
22
22/1(-10%)
(5) Just Hannah 22/1, Point winner who has yet to trouble the judge under Rules and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Remote when third on recent stable debut and now 0-10 under rules; more to prove than some.

9th (1) (5/1 +0%) Accidental Legend
5
5/1(+0%)
(1) Accidental Legend 5/1, Won 3 on the bounce at around 2½m last winter, including here, but returns from a break with a bit to prove having perfromed poorly at Ffos Las and Hereford on his last 2 starts. Won three in a row over 2m4f last season but was in very poor form at end of that campaign.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
G'day Aussie made the most of a career-low mark when getting up to win at Worcester in July, but the veteran could prove vulnerable racing off 6lb higher in this contest. ACCIDENTAL LEGEND comes with risks attached having lost his form towards the end of his campaign in March and April, but a 177-day break may have freshened the gelding up. My Brother Jack also warrants consideration.
FAZAYTE's strike rate in this sphere is pretty modest (1-18) but he goes well here and is appealing off a mark just 1 lb above that off which he landed a handicap chase on his latest jumps start at Haydock in April. Next on the list is the 2021 winner of this race, G'Day Aussie, who resumed winning ways on his second run following a spell on the sidelines at Worcester. Rhodia and My Brother Jack both enter calculations too, but last year's winner Misty Mani has a bit to prove at present.
Last year's winner MISTY MANI, who ran well in a competitive 2m4f race here two starts ago and has slipped to a good mark.

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.
