1st (3)  (9/1 +18%)Champ Royal |
9/1(+18%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Champ Royal 9/1, Looked better than ever when making a winning start for this yard at Hexham in October. Beaten 12 lengths when seventh of 11 to Sanosuke over C&D last time. Needs to recapture the form Hexham form. Won on his stable debut at Hexham but he's been well held in both subsequent runs. |
|||
2nd (6)  (7/1 +42%)Just Call Me Al |
7/1(+42%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Just Call Me Al 7/1, Won 3 times at Sedgefield in 2021/22 season. Largely disappointing since, but he was entitled to need his latest outing at Kelso after a 5-month break. His last win was over fences 23 months ago and has mixed record this year; down the list. |
|||
3rd (2)  (3/1 -50%)Sanosuke |
3/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Sanosuke 3/1, Fairly useful on the Flat in Ireland. Only modest form over hurdles but he did finally get off the mark in this sphere when seeing off 10 rivals over C&D (soft) 18 days ago. Should remain competitive after a 6 lb rise. Off the mark over hurdles with a clearcut success over C&D latest; big player again up 6lb. |
|||
4th (5)  (11/1 +0%)Reagrove Lord |
11/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Reagrove Lord 11/1, Placed in points in Ireland and mild encouragement over hurdles to date. Tongue tied for handicap debut and improvement can't be ruled out. Check the betting. Unexposed 5yo who looks a possible improver upped to 3m on handicap debut; interesting. |
|||
5th (10)  (22/1 -120%)Buto |
22/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Buto 22/1, Belatedly off the mark at Hexham in May and placed at that venue on his next 2 starts. Given a break since a poor run at Bangor in August. Disappointing in final run in the summer and needs to bounce back after a break. |
|||
6th (9)  (28/1 -12%)Gypsey's Secret |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Gypsey's Secret 28/1, Absent since pulled up in Hexham handicap in May and this maiden is readily passed over. Nine-race maiden who has form figures of P76P in handicaps (2m7f-3m1f); others preferred. |
|||
7th (8)  (9/2 +18%)Blended Stealth |
9/2(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Blended Stealth 9/2, Remains a maiden after 23 but fared better than of late when 7¾ lengths fourth of 11 to Sanosuke over C&D (soft) 18 days ago. Claims if he can build on that with a first-time visor replacing cheekpieces. Fair fourth over C&D latest but that was behind Sanosuke and she's now 0-23; new headgear. |
|||
8th (7)  (9/1 +0%)Joanna I'm Fine |
9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Joanna I'm Fine 9/1, Got off the mark in 12-runner handicap hurdle at Ayr (3m, good to soft) in February. Creditable 5 lengths fifth of 16 at Hexham when last seen in May. Much depends on whether he's primed after 7 months off. Has a patchy profile but she's on a workable mark and needs watching in market on return. |
|||
9th (1)  (3/1 +0%)Haveyougotmymoney |
3/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Haveyougotmymoney 3/1, Gained reward for several good efforts in defeat when landing 11-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (3m, good to soft) in October. Good runner-up efforts on next 2 starts and stamina seemingly just stretched by 3¼m at Kelso latest. Big player back at 3m. Has had a win and three close calls in his last five runs; respected dropped back in grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This can go to SANOSUKE, who was a clearcut winner over C&D 18 days and is open to more progress at staying trips.

1st (2)  (8/11 +55%)Got Your Back |
8/11(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Got Your Back 8/11, Runner-up sole start in Irish points and made an encouraging start to his Rules career when third in a Wetherby bumper for Michael Scudamore in March. Signs of inexperience when 12 lengths third of 15 on his Catterick hurdle debut for new yard last month and likely to step up on that form now. Placed in all three runs including on hurdling debut at Catterick last month; key player. |
|||
2nd (5)  (7/2 -56%)Valleyview Tommy |
7/2(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Valleyview Tommy 7/2, Half-brother to useful hurdler Ratfacemcdougall. Runner-up completed start in Irish points and made a bright start over hurdles when 5 lengths third of 10 in a Kelso maiden in October. Open to improvement. Promising third on hurdling debut at Kelso (2m) and is open to improvement upped in trip. |
|||
3rd (4)  (10/1 +38%)Jet Patrol |
10/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jet Patrol 10/1, Placed twice in Irish points but pulled up last time (Oct 22). Valleyview Tommy is likely the yard's first string unless the betting hints otherwise. Had a near-miss in one of his Irish points; needs checking in market on rules debut. |
|||
4th (7)  (25/1 -178%)Fiveafterfour |
25/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Fiveafterfour 25/1, £80,000 buy after easily winning her sole Irish point. 9/2, dropped away from the home turn when well beaten on her Kelso hurdle debut 19 days ago but she might strip fitter for the outing. Irish point winner but she flopped on her hurdling debut last month; risks attached. |
|||
5th (6)  (50/1 -257%)Bridgetjoans |
50/1(-257%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bridgetjoans 50/1, Better effort in novice hurdles last month when fourth of 11 at Kelso but she was beaten a long way and is more one for handicaps after this. Promising fourth at a massive price at Kelso and has claims if she can build on that. |
|||
6th (1)  (80/1 -220%)Better Be Definite |
80/1(-220%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Better Be Definite 80/1, More one for handicaps judged on his 2 efforts in maiden/novice company, latterly after a 7-month break and change of stable. Has struggled in both hurdle runs and needs a transformation upped in trip. |
|||
7th (3)  (3/1 +0%)Heart Above |
3/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Heart Above 3/1, Promise when placed on all 3 starts in bumpers, going down by only a head on Kelso reappearance 37 days ago. Should be up to making his presence felt in a race like this now hurdling. Went close in his last two bumpers and he's an interesting contender on hurdling debut. |
|||
8th (8)  (200/1 -203%)Western Glen |
200/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Western Glen 200/1, Well held in bumpers in recent months and a likely outsider now hurdling. Tailed off at big prices in two bumpers this autumn; can only be watched on hurdling debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Preference is for HEART ABOVE, who went close in his last two bumpers and could have a good future at this new discipline.

1st (11)  (3/1 +50%)Sunday Soldier |
3/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Sunday Soldier 3/1, Verging on fair in bumpers in Ireland and displayed some promise in mares' novice/maiden hurdles at around 20f during the summer. Switch to handicaps rates a plus and interesting if market vibes proved positive. Unexposed handicap newcomer and she needs watching in market on her return. |
|||
2nd (2)  (15/2 +32%)Cancan |
15/2(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Cancan 15/2, Landed a mares' novice at Ayr in November 2021 and made frame on 3 of 4 starts thereafter that season. Shaped as if needing first start for 19 months at Carlisle in October and better showing not ruled out now. Missed last season and was pulled up on her comeback in October; has questions to answer. |
|||
3rd (1)  (14/1 -133%)Chicago Gal |
14/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Chicago Gal 14/1, Fair maiden on Flat who showed ability on 2 of her 3 starts in juvenile hurdles last winter. Clearly not 100% when pulled up on the level at Kempton in March but no surprise to see a better showing back from 9 months off/now handicapping in this sphere. Two runner-up efforts in this sphere and needs watching in market on handicap hurdle debut. |
|||
4th (6)  (6/1 -167%)Maggie O |
6/1(-167%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Maggie O 6/1, Irish point winner who got off the mark in this sphere on the back of a wind op in 11-runner handicap at Doncaster (16.6f, good) 31 days ago. Needs considering given low-mileage profile operating from a 4 lb higher mark. Comfortable win in a Doncaster handicap last month and a 4lb rise looks fair; big player. |
|||
5th (8)  (9/2 -29%)Lenebane |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Lenebane 9/2, Got back on track when fifth of 11 to Maggie O in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (16.6f, good) 31 days ago. Shortlisted off the same mark. 0-10 over hurdles but she ran well at Doncaster last month and yard won this in 2021. |
|||
6th (10)  (11/2 +54%)Asa |
11/2(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Asa 11/2, French import who went close on sole start for Richard Hobson in a Leicester juvenile hurdle last November. However, she has failed to go on from that since and while her mark continues to slide, others make more appeal. Mark is tumbling but she's a regressive maiden and others are preferred. |
|||
7th (9)  (13/2 +28%)Bella Bluesky |
13/2(+28%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Bella Bluesky 13/2, Bumper/hurdles winner who ran her best race for some time (following wind surgery) when third of 6 in handicap at Kelso (20.9f) in October. Reportedly lost her action next time and not at best when midfield in 11-runner contest latest. Cheekpieces go on now. On dangerous mark but she's hard to predict and has struggled last twice; down the list. |
|||
8th (7)  (50/1 -100%)Silver Vision |
50/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Silver Vision 50/1, Suited by way the race developed when off the mark in C&D juvenile maiden last winter but essentially disappointing since, sketchy jumping not helping her cause when well beaten at Kelso last month. Won a C&D maiden last November but she's struggled since and has a lot to prove. |
|||
9th (3)  (18/1 +0%)Donso Star |
18/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Donso Star 18/1, Unplaced in bumpers but promise on 2 of her 3 starts in maiden/novice hurdles during second half of last season. Failed to improve for switch to handicaps when sixth of 8 at Perth (16.2f) in May but it does at least remain early days. Still lightly raced but she needs to resume her progress after 214 days off. |
|||
10th (5)  (20/1 -100%)Evita Du Mesnil |
20/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Evita Du Mesnil 20/1, Won twice during 2021/22 and solid start for new yard when second at Kelso (16.2f) in October. Didn't kick from that in trio of starts thereafter last winter and betting may prove best guide returning from 12 months off. Four-time hurdle winner but has not been at her best in last three runs; needs to step up. |
|||
11th (4)  (22/1 +33%)Milajess |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Milajess 22/1, Went close in a Clonmel mares maiden in May but subsequent efforts for Michael C. Griffin were below par. Shaped as if better for the run when fourth on yard debut at Hexham (20f, heavy) in October but needs to shrug off a lesser display at Carlisle later that month. Ex-Irish maiden who has struggled in both runs for her current yard; no appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Top of the list is the lightly raced MAGGIE O (nap), who returned after wind surgery with a comfortable win at Doncaster last month.

1st (3)  (9/1 +18%)Fete Champetre |
9/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Fete Champetre 9/1, Hasn't stood much racing in recent years and offered little after a further 10 months off when fifth of 9 in handicap chase (9/1) at Carlisle (15.9f, soft) a couple of months ago. Well treated on best form but hard to have much faith in at present. Well treated on form in late 2021; had little racing since with some excuses; could revive. |
|||
2nd (2)  (7/2 -17%)Restandbethankful |
7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Restandbethankful 7/2, Well served by return to positive tactics when opening account at the first attempt for new yard at Sedgefield (17f) in October. Quickly back to form when runner-up at this course (15.8f, soft) 18 days ago and there's likely to be another race or 2 to be won with him this season. Usually races at about 2m but won over 2m3f in June; useful effort on soft last time. |
|||
3rd (1)  (13/2 -117%)Dancewiththewind |
13/2(-117%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dancewiththewind 13/2, Twice a winner over hurdles last season but he's made an inauspicious start to his chasing career, tailed off at Carlisle before taking little interest in first-time headgear at Kelso last month. Cheekpieces discarded and mark continues to tumble. Four hurdle wins; showed no enthusiasm when pulled up early on 2nd chase start last time. |
|||
4th (4)  (15/8 +25%)Hello Judge |
15/8(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hello Judge 15/8, Winning hurdler who built on his reappearance effort to run out a good winner at Carlisle in October, displaying a good attitude. Shaped as if still in good form but didn't see his race out at Newcastle (20.1f) last time but he should be in the mix back down in grade. Solid form over 2m4f on last two starts; good chance of benefiting from easier assignment. |
|||
5th (7)  (12/1 -9%)Jackhammer |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Jackhammer 12/1, Winner on the Flat in June and has matched hurdles form over fences so far, fifth at Kelso last time. Doesn't appear to have anything in hand, however. Multiple Flat/hurdle winner; late start to chase career and not gone on; stamina query. |
|||
6th (5)  (4/1 +27%)Warriors Story |
4/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Warriors Story 4/1, Went close over fences at Ayr last December and also second over hurdles at Kelso in April. Looked rusty back from 6 months off when well-held fourth in 3m Kelso chase last month and cheekpieces/tongue tie are on for the first time together. Winner at 2m4f; has blown hot and cold in 2023; cheekpieces refitted. |
|||
7th (6)  (28/1 -75%)Marajman |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Marajman 28/1, Dual chase winner for Charles & Adam Pogson in summer but no impact on both starts for this yard last month. Needs to bounce back quickly. Two chase wins for previous yard in 2023 but right out of luck for new yard in November. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
A couple of these are potential revivers but HELLO JUDGE is the one with solid claims and he is preferred.

1st (1)  (15/8 +16%)Lihyan |
15/8(+16%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Lihyan 15/8, Comfortable winner of Cork maiden hurdle (16.9f) last summer but yet to reproduce his Irish form for his current yard. Never involved in handicap here (15.6f) 18 days ago, but he's an interesting contender having only his second try at this trip from his tumbling mark. Far efforts in last two starts and he looks worth another try at this trip; in the mix. |
|||
2nd (4)  (14/1 -40%)Dot Cotton |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dot Cotton 14/1, Still looking for her first win and couldn't build on the promise of her fourth at Perth (20.2f) in September when finishing mid-field at Sedgefield last time. Continues to fall in the weights but has work to do to take advantage. 15-race maiden with an uninspiring record of 4937677547 in handicaps; others preferred. |
|||
3rd (9)  (11/2 +0%)Foxwood |
11/2(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Foxwood 11/2, Runner-up in a Catterick bumper on debut in February but has made a low-key start to his hurdling career, showing his first form over timber when fifth of 8 on his handicap debut at Kelso (18.1f) in September. Has something to find as he goes back up in distance. Has not achieved much over hurdles and he needs to find more after another break. |
|||
4th (3)  (5/1 +9%)Copper Fox |
5/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Copper Fox 5/1, Off the mark at the third attempt over hurdles last summer and matched that level when runner-up on his chase debut in May. Hasn't progressed since, including back hurdling last time (following a wind op), but he's on dangerous mark returned to this longer trip. Well treated on his best jumps form and he's still unexposed at this trip; in the mix. |
|||
5th (8)  (11/1 -120%)Misscarlett |
11/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Misscarlett 11/1, Best effort of the year when second at this C&D in March, before struggling in a couple of runs back on the Flat. However, not discredited returned to hurdles when mid-field here (23.8f) 18 days ago, so she's one to consider as she drops back down in trip. On long losing run but she ran well for a long way here (3m) last month; not ruled out. |
|||
6th (6)  (14/1 -27%)Balranald |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Balranald 14/1, Successful over fences back in 2021 and finally opened his account over hurdles in a Bangor handicap (19.6f) in May. Form has been in and out since, though, following a pair of placed efforts with a poor run last time. Others more persuasive. Record of 1-29 over hurdles and was tailed off on soft ground last time; risks attached. |
|||
7th (5)  (7/2 +45%)We Gotta Getaway |
7/2(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) We Gotta Getaway 7/2, Fair form on the second of 2 starts in bumpers, but no better than mid-division in a trio of novice hurdles last season. However, it would be no surprise if he showed more now handicapping, with tongue strap applied on her first start since leaving Fergal O'Brien. Returns from 325 days off and he needs to show a lot more on his handicap/stable debut. |
|||
8th (2)  (25/1 -150%)Darkest Day |
25/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Darkest Day 25/1, Recorded back-to-back wins at Kelso in September but hasn't been in the same form since, finishing a well-beaten sixth at this course (15.6f) 18 days ago. He's back below his last winning mark as a result, though, so he's capable if on a going day. Two good-ground wins at Kelso in September but he's been well held in last three runs. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (33/1 -106%)Melchoir |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Melchoir 33/1, Made more impact than previously when fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (18.1f) on her final start last season. However, after 7 months off (had a wind op) ran no sort of race when pulled up at the same course 19 days ago. Improvement required. Nine-race maiden who has not progressed and was pulled up at Kelso 19 days ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
This looks trappy but the vote goes to LIHYAN, who has run respectably in his last two starts and looks worth another try at this trip.

9/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Deep Charm 9/1, Largely struggled last season but bounced back to form when landing 6-runner handicap chase at Sedgefield (26.9f, heavy) 20 days ago. Needs to back it up from a 5 lb higher mark. Back to form with a bang when scoring at Sedgefield and has claims if he can back that up. |
|||
2nd (8)  (16/1 +11%)Coolkill |
16/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Coolkill 16/1, Novice hurdle winner in April 2021 but has struggled in a light handicap career since, tried in cheekpieces when only eighth at Perth 7 months ago. Well held on his two previous attemtps chasing too but not ruled out at these weights if resurgent after a break. Has struggled since his hurdle win in 2021 and has a lot to prove at this new trip. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/1 +36%)Shadows In The Sky |
9/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Shadows In The Sky 9/1, Point winner. Failed to go on over hurdles but he hinted at promise on his chasing bow on the back of a wind op when fourth of 5 in handicap chase at Newcastle (20.1f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Should progress. Irish point winner but he's been regressive under rules and others are more convincing. |
|||
4th (4)  (3/1 +40%)So They Say |
3/1(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) So They Say 3/1, Winning pointer who posted easily his best effort over hurdles when second of 13 in handicap hurdle at Kelso (20.9f, heavy) 19 days ago. Interesting chase debutant. Runner-up in last hurdle run and she looks interesting on this switch to fences. |

9/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Get With It 9/1, Dual chase scorer around 3m in the first half of last season and having slipped back down the weights, ran better than for a while when fifth of 12 in handicap chase at Ayr (20.5f, good, 22/1) 44 days ago. Mark is workable if able to build on that. On dangerous mark and was a fair fifth at Ayr last month; possibilities back up in trip. |
|||
6th (5)  (10/1 +0%)Getthepot |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Getthepot 10/1, Successful twice in handicap chases at Huntingdon in 2022 and back on song of late, seventh of 14 in handicap chase at Taunton (23f, good to soft, 6/1) 32 days ago. Respected. Now 4lb lower than for last win but he's hard to predict and ideally wants quicker ground. |
|||
7th (6)  (5/1 +33%)Not The Chablis |
5/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Not The Chablis 5/1, C&D winner who comes here on the back of a creditable sixth of 12 in handicap chase at Ayr (20.5f, good) 44 days ago, not ideally placed. Can build on it now. Made some late headway at Ayr on his return last month and he's in the mix back up in trip. |
|||
8th (11)  (14/1 +0%)Ingleby Mackenzie |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Ingleby Mackenzie 14/1, Fair handicap chaser in Ireland for Henry de Bromhead. Best effort for present stable when third in 2m handicap chase here but let down by his jumping at Sedgefield since. Needs to bounce back. Untried at this trip and he took his losing run to 23 when well held at Sedgefield latest. |
|||
9th (10)  (11/2 +75%)West Lawn |
11/2(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) West Lawn 11/2, Winning pointer and successful twice over hurdles at Hexham in 2022. Has looked very limited over fences, though, only mid-field behind Dr Shirocco here last time, and others are preferred. No impact over fences so far and was 29l behind Dr Shirocco here last time. |
|||
10th (7)  (15/2 -67%)Sputnik |
15/2(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Sputnik 15/2, Placed 5 times since his last win at Ayr 13 months ago, including when third at Ayr latest. Should be thereabouts once more. Dual chase winner who has been placed in four of his last five runs; should go well again. |
|||
11th (12)  (150/1 -275%)Tumbling Dice |
150/1(-275%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Tumbling Dice 150/1, Little impact since scoring over fences for Sue Smith back in January 2022 and he was pulled up over hurdles on his yard debut at Kelso 19 days ago. Big ask from 4 lb out of the weights. Pulled up on his comeback last month and has plenty to prove from out of the weights. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A competitive race in which Sandy Forster's hat-trick seeker DR SHIROCCO gets the vote ahead of Deep Charm and So They Say.

1st (3)  (7/4 +75%)Getagin |
7/4(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Getagin 7/4, In second when falling at the last in an Irish point in April. Subsequently picked up for £25,000. Would enter the reckoning on Rules debut if the betting vibes are strong. Showed promise in his sole Irish point and needs a close look on rules debut. |
|||
2nd (5)  (10/3 -141%)One More Stroke |
10/3(-141%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) One More Stroke 10/3, Runner-up both starts in Irish points in Feb 2023. Leading stable enjoys plenty of bumper success. Likely type. Runner-up in both Irish points and he looks interesting on his rules debut; had wind op. |
|||
3rd (7)  (9/4 +10%)Yakaleo |
9/4(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Yakaleo 9/4, €65,000 Buck's Boum gelding. Dam 17f hurdle/chase winner in France. Stable has a healthy 21% strike-rate in bumpers in the last 5 seasons, including winning this with a newcomer in 2020. 65,000euros 3yo; yard 3-6 in bumpers here in recent years and he's an interesting newcomer. |
|||
4th (6)  (13/2 -18%)Walkingoneggshells |
13/2(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Walkingoneggshells 13/2, Won a point but failed to meet market expectations when only seventh of 15 on Hereford bumper debut 27 days ago. Early days but he'll need to leave that behind. Irish point winner but he didn't live up to market expectations on rules debut at Hereford. |
|||
5th (8)  (16/1 -129%)Callan Queen |
16/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Callan Queen 16/1, Mount Nelson filly. Half-sister to fair hurdler Crushed. Dam maiden hurdler, 7f winner who stayed 1¼m on Flat. Another who would come into it if the betting vibes are strong. Half-sister to a Flat/hurdle winner and she needs watching in market on debut. |
|||
6th (4)  (150/1 -275%)Nae Bother At A' |
150/1(-275%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Nae Bother At A' 150/1, Well held in Kelso bumpers 7 months apart. Tailed off at big prices in two Kelso bumpers, most recently on his return last month. |
|||

20/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Fiftyfifty 20/1, Third both starts in Irish points (latest Apr 21). Stable has had the odd bumper winner. Interesting to see what the betting makes of him. Third in two points and he's out of a useful bumper winner; watch market on rules debut. |
|||
8th (1)  (200/1 -203%)Crawfordjohn |
200/1(-203%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Crawfordjohn 200/1, Black Sam Bellamy gelding who achieved nothing when a distant last of 4 on his Hexham debur 26 days ago. Finished a tailed-off last of four at Hexham (2m, heavy) on his debut last month. |

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.
