1st (4)  (11/1 -100%)Be Aware |
11/1(-100%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Be Aware 11/1, Martaline gelding. Brother to connections' useful hurdler/chaser Lac de Constance, and half-brother to fairly useful French hurdler Irish Bar. Respected on debut. Brother to connections' useful 2m-2m2f hurdle/chase winner Lac De Constance; interesting. |
|||
2nd (9)  (3/1 +33%)Navajo Indy |
3/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Navajo Indy 3/1, Course bumper winner in November who made an encouraging start to his hurdle career when 3 lengths second of 16 at Exeter (17f, heavy) just before Christmas. There should be more to come from him. Bumper win came at this venue; creditable second at Exeter switched to hurdles; solid. |
|||
3rd (8)  (14/1 -155%)Jim De Sarti |
14/1(-155%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Jim De Sarti 14/1, Improved from debut when winning 7-runner amateurs maiden at Loudeac in April. Disappointed with his finishing effort on his British debut at Ludlow 8 weeks on but it remains early days with his top stable. Bumper winner in France; disappointing on British debut but retains potential. |
|||
4th (5)  (6/4 +14%)Fasol |
6/4(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Fasol 6/4, Smart on Flat in France, stays 15.5f, runner-up in Group 3 last time. Sold from Christope Ferland for €155,000 in September and makes lots of appeal on hurdle/stable debut. Very useful on Flat in France, particularly over 1m7f; bright recruit and has to be feared. |
|||
5th (16)  (150/1 -200%)Twyford's Diamond |
150/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Twyford's Diamond 150/1, Showed little in a brace of bumpers and fared no better sent hurdling at Hereford (21.7f, soft) 19 days ago. Back down in trip. Far from solid on form. |
|||
6th (2)  (4/1 +33%)Arthurian Fable |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Arthurian Fable 4/1, Useful on the Flat (stays 1¾m) for Brian Meehan and made an encouraging start over hurdles after a long absence when third of 18 over C&D last month. Entitled to do better. Useful maiden on Flat; encouraging effort over C&D on return from long absence. |
|||
7th (1)  (66/1 -230%)Another Fine Mess |
66/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Another Fine Mess 66/1, Has an ordinary pedigree but is a good type and has shown ability in making the frame both outings in bumpers, paying for his early keenness at Wincanton last time. Hood added for hurdle bow. May settle better and show progress with hood applied; hurdles debut. |
|||
8th (3)  (200/1 -100%)Aworkinprogress |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Aworkinprogress 200/1, Maiden pointer and more one for handicaps after this based on his 2 efforts in novice hurdles this winter. Holds modest claims on form and likely to be more interesting in handicaps. |
|||
9th (10)  (20/1 -67%)Optimistic Joe |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Optimistic Joe 20/1, £60,000 purchase after finishing third in a point last March and needs a market check now starting out under Rules. Finished third in Irish point last March; sold for £60,000 in May; market can guide. |
|||
10th (13)  (33/1 +0%)Stonking |
33/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Stonking 33/1, Dam half-sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 19f) Vorashann. Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1¾m) but ran well below form on most recent outing. Dual 1m4f scorer on Flat, including at this course last July; below par the last twice. |
|||
11th (15)  (40/1 -100%)Vision De Maine |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Vision De Maine 40/1, Successful sole start in Irish points and offered something to work on when second of 6 in a bumper at Sedgefield (16.8f) on Rules debut in October. Made novicey mistakes when well held on Chepstow hurdling debut 6 weeks later. Irish point winner; second to useful sort in bumper; well beaten on hurdles debut. |
|||
12th (14)  (7/1 +30%)The Blueberry One |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) The Blueberry One 7/1, Blue Bresil gelding. Dam (h134) bumper/19f-21f hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Newcomers from promising yard warrant respect. Attractively bred, being by Blue Bresil out of a bumper/hurdle winner for his owner. |
|||
13th (12)  (100/1 -525%)Ruler Legend |
100/1(-525%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Ruler Legend 100/1, Useful Irish Flat performer in 2022 but nowhere near that level in 2 hurdle outings for current yard. Way too soon to write him off in this sphere but he might be more one for handicaps after this. Has failed to transfer his Irish Flat form to hurdles in two attempts. |
|||
14th (11)  (250/1 -150%)Royal Regard |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Royal Regard 250/1, Showed fair form when down the field on the first of 2 starts at Compiegne in the spring of 2021 but was pulled up on his British debut at Wetherby later that year and fared no better both starts back on the Flat. Subsequently sold out of Tom George's stable for only £4,000. Holds weak claims on form and has been absent for two years. |
|||
15th (6)  (250/1 -150%)Greenways |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Greenways 250/1, Showed some promise in bumpers and shaped in kind tried hurdling when tenth of 17 in a maiden at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) 11 days ago. One for later on. Always behind at Wincanton on the switch to hurdles. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (250/1 -150%)Harbour Bridge |
250/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Harbour Bridge 250/1, Showed some ability in finishing midfield both starts in bumpers but was pulled up on his Chepstow hurdle debut last month. Achieved nothing at Chepstow (hurdles debut) last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Fasol is respected on his French Flat form. NAVAJO INDY and Arthurian Fable are best of the runners with hurdling experience.

1st (9)  (9/4 +10%)Into The Park |
9/4(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Into The Park 9/4, 5-y-o who improved plenty again when third of 14 in maiden hurdle at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) 15 days ago, finishing with running left. Open to further improvement and looks up to winning a novice hurdle. Ran well at Taunton most recently; fighting chance if that form is repeated. |
|||
2nd (15)  (7/2 +56%)Two To Tango |
7/2(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Two To Tango 7/2, Showed fair form in a pair of bumpers during the second half of last season and ran to a similar level sent hurdling when third of 8 at Hereford (19.7, good) 55 days ago. Entitled to progress. Engaged 2.15 Plumrton Monday. Clear third at Hereford (hurdles debut) last time; may progress. |
|||
3rd (8)  (11/1 -69%)Hidden History |
11/1(-69%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Hidden History 11/1, Sold for £45,000 after easily winning an Irish point last February. One to note in the betting on hurdle debut. Comfortable success in Irish point; sold for £45,000 since; heed the market signals. |
|||
4th (1)  (14/1 +30%)Alnilam |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Alnilam 14/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¾m), won twice in 2023, respectable effort last time. Could go well on hurdle debut. May need longer trips over hurdles, having gained both Flat wins at 1m6f. |
|||
5th (12)  (50/1 +24%)Samazul |
50/1(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Samazul 50/1, Bumper winner last season but down the field in 2 hurdle outings on testing ground this winter. Good-ground bumper scorer; beaten long way in slow-ground races over hurdles. |
|||
6th (10)  (9/1 -125%)Jaitroplaclasse |
9/1(-125%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Jaitroplaclasse 9/1, Finished third on the first of his 2 starts in bumpers and was in the need of the experience sent hurdling when fourth of 5 in introductory event over C&D 24 days ago. Latest effort came in C&D event won by exciting stablemate; respected in this field. |
|||
7th (7)  (7/1 -75%)Entity Of Substanz |
7/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Entity Of Substanz 7/1, No Risk At All gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Eva's Oskar, stays 33f, and useful hurdler/chaser Amore Alato. Dam (c120/h121) 2m-21f hurdle/chase winner. Noteworthy newcomer to watch closely in the betting. 60,000euros yearling; half-brother to five winners, three useful; interesting newcomer. |
|||
8th (11)  (12/1 -9%)Officer Of State |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Officer Of State 12/1, Useful on the Flat (stays 15f) for Andre Fabre. Sold for 65,000 gns in October and should improve on his opening effort in this sphere when last of 5 in introductory event over C&D 24 days ago. Finished behind Jaitroplaclasse here on hurdles debut but may well improve. |
|||
9th (5)  (150/1 -355%)Diamatiste |
150/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Diamatiste 150/1, Fourth both starts in points but showed only minor promise when filling same position in a 10-runner Exeter novice (16.7f, heavy) on recent Rules debut. Consistent thus far (points/hurdle) but needs to show improvement. |
|||
10th (3)  (25/1 +0%)Chancellorstown |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Chancellorstown 25/1, Placed on 2 of 3 starts in Irish points and shaped as if needing the run when fourth of 11 in a Fontwell novice (17.7f) 4 weeks ago, unable to sustain effort. Open to improvement with Fontwell effort (rules debut) under his belt. |
|||
11th (13)  (14/1 -56%)Soir De Gala |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Soir De Gala 14/1, Promise on Wincanton bumper debut in April but has folded tamely both outings since, including on Exeter hurdling debut 22 days ago. Represents major connections and should still do better; second hurdles attempt. |
|||
12th (16)  (300/1 -355%)Fantastic Artist |
300/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Fantastic Artist 300/1, Down the field in minor events/handicaps on the level and has offered little both stats over hurdles. Poor maiden on Flat; minor RPRs in both attempts over hurdles. |
|||
13th (6)  (11/2 +39%)Diesel Line |
11/2(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Diesel Line 11/2, Attracted support and made a winning debut in good style in 9-runner bumper at Exeter last February. Could only manage a remote third on his hurdle debut at Taunton 9 months later but should do better. Hood goes on. Bumper winner; let down by his jumping on the switch to hurdles but retains potential. |
|||
14th (2)  (300/1 -200%)Aworkingman |
300/1(-200%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Aworkingman 300/1, Sent off at 150/1 when pulled up on Ffos Las debut last month. Inauspicious debut at Ffos Las six weeks ago. |
|||
|PU| (14)  (66/1 -65%)Tough Approach |
66/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Tough Approach 66/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points in March and showed plenty to work on when third in a Newton Abbot bumper but made an unpromising start to hurdle career at Uttoxeter in November. Tongue strap on for 1st time (also had breathing op). Form dipped last time but subsequent wind surgery may have positive effect. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (300/1 -355%)Dancing Master |
300/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dancing Master 300/1, Poor handicapper on Flat in Jersey nowadays, stays 16.5f: has left Christa Cuthbert. Hard to recommend on hurdle debut. Only 1-27 on Flat; brings limited potential to hurdles debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
The most appealing contenders are JAITROPLACLASSE and Officer Of State who return to less taxing company.

1st (1)  (2/1 -21%)Valadon |
2/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Valadon 2/1, Both starts at Exeter, building on a promising debut second when going one better in a small field 25 days later. Has a penalty to shoulder but he's likely capable of better. Leading claims. Solid second on debut; went one better next time, again at Exeter; respected. |
|||
2nd (7)  (3/1 +63%)Wreckless Eric |
3/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Wreckless Eric 3/1, Masterstroke gelding. Dam (c125/h122), 2¼m/19f hurdle/chase winner in France, sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser in France (17f-2¼m winner) Dianakova. Newcomer to note in the betting. £38,000 2yo; respectable French pedigree; sole newcomer in the field; check the betting. |
|||
3rd (4)  (4/1 +60%)Kalif D'airy |
4/1(+60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Kalif D'airy 4/1, Authorized gelding who hinted at ability when 13¾ lengths ninth of 11 to Kel Du Large in listed bumper (14/1) at Cheltenham on debut 22 days ago. Makes a quick switch to hurdles for last year's winning yard. Shaped better than bare result in Listed bumper at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. |
|||
4th (8)  (9/1 -260%)Dameofthecotswolds |
9/1(-260%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Dameofthecotswolds 9/1, Bumper winner. Promising first run over hurdles when second at Ludlow in December but not in anything like the same form when a remote third back there 16 days later. Distant third last time but looks one of the main players on earlier form. |
|||
5th (2)  (9/2 +36%)Kabuki |
9/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Kabuki 9/2, Made a winning start to his career in a Newcastle bumper just before Christmas. Interesting recruit to hurdles. Half-length success in Newcastle bumper last month; bred to develop into a useful sort. |
|||
6th (6)  (11/1 -83%)Marrakushi |
11/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Marrakushi 11/1, Well held in bumper/maiden hurdle for David Pipe but more encouraging signs for new stable when 15 lengths third of 11 in juvenile hurdle at Taunton just after Christmas. Appeared to improve at Taunton for new yard; booking of Harry Cobden is a plus. |
|||
7th (5)  (33/1 -136%)Macari |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Macari 33/1, Modest form when mid-field in 2 bumpers in November and similar story in a pair of juvenile hurdles in recent weeks. Others preferred. Minor form in bumpers and juvenile hurdles; needs improvement. |
|||
|PU| (3)  (100/1 -150%)Kadiwo |
100/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Kadiwo 100/1, Half-brother to 4 winners, including smart hurdler Lucky One, but no short-term promise on recent Ludlow debut. Achieved little in similar event at Ludlow 18 days ago. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
On the balance of his Exeter form, VALADON looks capable of defying a 7lb penalty. Kabuki is second choice.

1st (1)  (10/1 +17%)Abuffalosoldier |
10/1(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Abuffalosoldier 10/1, Won a 3m handicap hurdle here last season but lost his way a little after finishing a good third at Cheltenham on New Year's Day. Well held 2 of his 3 starts over fences in recent months and has work to do. Headgear on/hand wind operation. Sole start at Newbury resulted in hurdle win off 1lb higher; interesting back here. |
|||
2nd (12)  (9/2 -29%)Blairgowrie |
9/2(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Blairgowrie 9/2, Off the mark over hurdles in 13-runner handicap at this course (24.2f, good) 22 months ago. Not seen since but is in fine hands and must be taken seriously on return/chase debut. Won off this mark over hurdles here when last seen; chasing type; interesting. |
|||
3rd (2)  (7/2 +50%)King's Threshold |
7/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) King's Threshold 7/2, Fairly-useful hurdler who found improvement when second of 11 in handicap at Kempton (20.5f, good to soft, 4/1) on chase debut 71 days ago. Step up in trip is a plus and he may have more to offer yet. Ran well (clear second) switched to fences at Kempton ten weeks ago; respected. |
|||
4th (13)  (9/2 +40%)Invincible Nao |
9/2(+40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Invincible Nao 9/2, French juvenile hurdle winner who displayed fair form without getting his head in front in that sphere for present yard. Left chase debut well behind when third in Lingfield handicap (20f, good to soft) latest and merits consideration. 0-8 in Britain but ran encouragingly in small field at Lingfield most recently. |
|||
5th (9)  (17/2 +39%)Earth King |
17/2(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Earth King 17/2, Went the right way over hurdles last season, readily winning an Exeter novice (18.5f) in February before good second at Taunton (19f) the following month. Fared better than previously in this sphere when third of 7 in handicap at Wincanton (20.2f, soft) last month but this looks more competitive. Bounced back to form at Wincanton on Boxing Day and could go well again. |
|||
6th (3)  (22/1 -120%)Trincomalee |
22/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Trincomalee 22/1, Useful hurdler/chaser who posted a good second in handicap hurdle at Warwick (25f) when last seen 21 months ago. Back chasing for his comeback run and is likely best watched. Has to overcome 21-month absence and returns as a veteran (aged 11 now). |
|||
7th (10)  (8/1 -33%)Gazette Bourgeoise |
8/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Gazette Bourgeoise 8/1, Scored twice over hurdles and, though yet to strike in this sphere, she went close to doing so back from 8 months off at Ffos Las (21.5f) in December, idling run-in and collared late on. Blinkers replace cheekpieces now and she is one for the shortlist. Went very close at Ffos Las six weeks ago; now 3lb higher in a deeper race. |
|||
8th (7)  (10/1 -43%)Island Run |
10/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Island Run 10/1, Dual winner over hurdles who has taken well to the larger obstacles, latest when creditable fifth of 12 in handicap (11/4) at Plumpton (25.7f, good to soft) 78 days ago. Should give another good account. Goes well fresh and has possibilities on return from 11-week break. |
|||
9th (14)  (40/1 -100%)Baddesley |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Baddesley 40/1, Temperamental sort. Fair winner at 21f over hurdles. Produced a laboured effort when sixth of 10 in handicap chase at Plumpton (19.8f) earlier this month and makes limited appeal. Visor back on. Modest effort returned to fences last time; more exposed than many. |
|||
|F| (5)  (33/1 -106%)Not At Present |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Not At Present 33/1, Four-time winner over hurdles who matched best form in that sphere when second of 3 in novice at Bangor (20.3f, good) on debut over fences in July 2022. Not seen since but is worth monitoring closely in market on return. Absent since July 2022; on a favourable mark but goes without usual headgear. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (17/2 +6%)Off To A Flyer |
17/2(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Off To A Flyer 17/2, Successful at Ayr (24.3f) last spring but proved disappointing when well held at Kempton (20.5f) on debut over fences 28 days ago. Tries easier grade now and too soon to be writing him off in this sphere. Point winner; drops in grade for this second chase attempt; not ruled out. |
|||
|PU| (8)  (33/1 -136%)Ballydesmond |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ballydesmond 33/1, Winner of a hunter chase in Ireland last year but finished well beaten (faced a stiff task) in novice at Exeter (24.2f) on yard debut 74 days ago. May do better now sent handicapping. Had wind operation. Open to progress in handicaps and looks one to consider; second run for new yard. |
|||
|PU| (6)  (33/1 -106%)Gaelic Park |
33/1(-106%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Gaelic Park 33/1, Point/bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles in 11-runner maiden at Warwick (21f) in March. However, made an inauspicious start over fences at Wincanton last month, losing touch when bad mistake halfway. Cheekpieces now reached for. Soundly beaten at Wincanton on Boxing Day but should do better. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The suggestion is ABUFFALOSOLDIER, ahead of King's Threshold. Blairgowrie has to be feared on his return to action.

1st (10)  (11/2 +8%)Gaye Legacy |
11/2(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Gaye Legacy 11/2, Lightly-raced hurdler who has taken a step forward in handicaps this season, scoring at Market Rasen before good seconds at Aintree and Kempton (both 3m, heavy) last month, shaping particularly well at latter track. One to be interested in. Has done well since sent into handicaps and appeals as a mare with more to offer. |
|||
2nd (5)  (14/1 +30%)Don't Rightly Know |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Don't Rightly Know 14/1, Defied a long absence when readily getting off the mark in an Exeter novice in November. Went close under a penalty at Wincanton next time and even better form when 8 lengths third on handicap debut there 17 days ago. That underlines she needs more from her mark but 3m promises to suit her. Lightly raced 9yo who enters the reckoning back in trip for just her second handicap. |
|||
3rd (12)  (14/1 -40%)Kazontherazz |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Kazontherazz 14/1, Fair hurdler who has recorded a couple of encouraging efforts since wind surgery, finishing second of 10 over 21f at Ludlow latterly. Should give another good account. Stays 3m and she raced up with the pace when only narrowly denied over 2m5f at Ludlow. |
|||
4th (16)  (17/2 +39%)Little Else |
17/2(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Little Else 17/2, Improved to land a 23f Taunton handicap in April and has resumed her progression on her return, winning at Newton Abbot (heavy) in October and only narrowly denied a West Country hat-trick at Exeter in November. Another to consider. Edged out by an exposed mare at Exeter last time but returning to further looks a plus. |
|||
5th (11)  (7/1 +30%)Fortuna Ligna |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Fortuna Ligna 7/1, Fair form in bumpers and similar form over hurdles, justifying cramped odds when landing a mares' maiden at Chepstow (19.5f) last spring. Creditable in-frame efforts in handicaps on 2 of her 3 starts this season, although the reopposing Gaye Legacy was ahead of her at Kempton last time. Has yet to win a handicap; does nothing in a hurry but should be plugging on. |
|||
6th (14)  (20/1 +39%)Porter In The Park |
20/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Porter In The Park 20/1, Irish point winner who made a successful handicap hurdle debut at Huntingdon last January and even better form when runner-up on her next 2 starts. Hasn't taken to chasing this term so hopes pinned on a return to smaller obstacles sparking a revival. Has something to prove regarding stamina and current form; returns to hurdling. |
|||
7th (8)  (16/1 -191%)Phillapa Sue |
16/1(-191%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Phillapa Sue 16/1, In fine form for her new yard, resuming winning ways in 14-runner handicap hurdle at Doncaster (3m, good to soft) 38 days ago. Up 6 lb but she can go well again. Convincing winner at Doncaster; up 6lb but unexposed over staying trips. |
|||
8th (17)  (33/1 +18%)My Girl Katie |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (17) My Girl Katie 33/1, Yet to fire this season in three runs over fences and handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter last time. Tongue strap/cheekpieces are reached for. New headgear tried but this is a tough race in which to bounce back to form. |
|||
|PU| (3)  (7/1 +22%)Moviddy |
7/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Moviddy 7/1, Irish point winner who won twice over hurdles last season. Placed in 3 chases this winter and the step up to 3m promises to suit her back hurdling. Back hurdling after three good chase runs; appeals as a likely improver now raised to 3m. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (10/1 -67%)Take No Chances |
10/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Take No Chances 10/1, Point winner who was placed in bumpers and made a winning hurdles debut at Huntingdon (19.5f) in November. No match for a potentially useful sort under a penalty at Market Rasen (20.5f) 47 days ago but it was another good run. Unexposed now handicapping over a longer trip for leading yard. Two good runs over shorter since hurdling and connections must view her as a stayer. |
|||
|PU| (7)  (10/3 +5%)Between Waters |
10/3(+5%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Between Waters 10/3, Successful sole start in points. Only sixth in a bumper last season but runner-up in a pair of 21f hurdles at Ludlow this time round and she's very much unexposed now making a quick switch to handicaps for a top yard. Interesting contender. Handicap newcomer for top yard and interesting to see the level of confidence behind her. |
|||
|PU| (9)  (11/1 +31%)Great Snow |
11/1(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Great Snow 11/1, Fair novice hurdler for Neil Mulholland last term. Strong in the betting but made a disappointing return for her new stable at Wincanton in November. Given a bit of time since and returns in a first-time tongue tie. Interesting to see whether her supporters' return. May have needed the run on stable debut; good mark and now tongue tied. |
|||
|PU| (15)  (25/1 +0%)Belles Benefit |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Belles Benefit 25/1, Successful on debut for this yard at Fontwell in summer 2022. Largely consistent in defeat since but this looks too competitive. 2m too sharp latest; close third over this far at Wetherby in October makes her a player. |
|||
|PU| (6)  (28/1 -40%)Holly Hartingo |
28/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Holly Hartingo 28/1, Dual hurdles scorer in 2021/22 but lightly raced since. Posted a solid fifth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Kempton (24.5f, heavy) over Christmas but Gaye Legacy holds her on that form. Took a step back in the right direction with a fair fifth at Kempton a month ago. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (33/1 -175%)Wynn House |
33/1(-175%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Wynn House 33/1, Bidding to make a winning reappearance for third season running. Those successes came off an identical mark to today so she can't be left out of calculations. Has a very good record when fresh and is one to be interested in on reappearance. |
|||
|PU| (13)  (40/1 -233%)Whisky Express |
40/1(-233%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Whisky Express 40/1, Bumper/maiden hurdle winner but has been a little disappointing since, again looking a bit of a tricky customer when well-held fourth of 5 on her Sandown reappearance last month. First-time blinkers replaced cheekpieces. Steps up in trip with questions to answer at present. Can win off this mark but she has her quirks and tries new headgear. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The 8yo MOVIDDY (nap) has produced some notable efforts over fences this term and returns to hurdles over a new trip that should suit.

1st (5)  (11/10 +20%)Issar D'airy |
11/10(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Issar D'airy 11/10, Improved model last season in handicap hurdles, overcoming a couple of untidy jumps when doubling his tally at Huntingdon in April. Took his form up a notch when making a winning start over fences after 8 months off over C&D (soft) last month and he's likely to have more to offer. Hosed up here over Christmas and handicapper fair with his treatment (up 8lb). |
|||
2nd (6)  (7/2 +22%)I'd Like To Know |
7/2(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) I'd Like To Know 7/2, Worcester maiden winner on Rules debut in October 2022 and went very close at Fontwell (17.7f, soft) 12 months ago. Satisfactory return when fourth on handicap debut at Lingfield last month and now heads over the larger obstacles. Market may guide. Lightly raced winning hurdler; pointing background and fences could be the making of him. |
|||
3rd (3)  (12/1 -9%)Not Available |
12/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Not Available 12/1, C&D winner who hit the target 3 times last season, responding well for pressure for the latest of them at Chepstow (2m) in April. However, hasn't been showing much spark over hurdles/fences in recent months. Blinkers again the headgear of choice. Has won six times over fences but seems to have developed his own ideas about the game. |
|||
4th (2)  (12/1 -20%)Give Me A Moment |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Give Me A Moment 12/1, Useful chaser who won 5 times during 2021/22 and bagged pair of novice hurdle victories thereafter. Lightly raced since, below best when fourth at Sandown (15.5f) when last seen in November. Mark is easing all the time at least. Capable off this mark but ideally wants good ground so any rain would count against him. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (3/1 -9%)Hystery Bere |
3/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Hystery Bere 3/1, Fairly useful performer over hurdles (3-time winner) who made a winning start in this sphere in 4-runner handicap at Warwick in May. Finished runner-up both starts over fences subsequently, held only late on at Wetherby (15f) in November. Possibilities again. Looks on a high enough mark but it's been a very solid start over fences. |
|||
|PU| (4)  (22/1 -100%)Witness Protection |
22/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Witness Protection 22/1, Dual hurdles winner who made it third time lucky over fences at Chepstow in November 2021. Lightly raced since and no real short-term promise to glean from last month's effort back at that venue following 7 months off. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Well handicapped and probably needed the run on heavy ground at Chepstow. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
While ISSAR D'AIRY was possibly a tad flattered here over Christmas he should be progressive enough to defy the 8lb rise.

6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Roysse 6/1, €75,000 3-y-o, Kayf Tara gelding. Unbeaten in 3 points and went with plenty of encouragement sporting a tongue strap when fourth in big-field Wincanton bumper on Rules debut 73 days ago, fading only late on. Expected to build on that. Travelled really well before tiring and finishing a near 8l fourth of 17 at Wincanton. |
|||
2nd (1)  (13/2 -136%)Jurancon |
13/2(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Jurancon 13/2, Free Port Lux gelding. Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points and looked a very good prospect when readily making a winning start for this yard in 7-runner bumper at Chepstow 45 days ago. Seems sure to do better and win more races. Won his second point easily and it was a similar story on bumper debut at Chepstow. |
|||
3rd (2)  (8/1 -129%)Kap Boy |
8/1(-129%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Kap Boy 8/1, €160,000 son of Kapgarde who overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in a 4-runner Chepstow bumper in October. Well in the mix despite a 6 lb penalty. 160,000euros 3yo; 4-5 when winning a four-runner heavy-ground bumper at Chepstow. |
|||
4th (9)  (5/4 +55%)Doctor Kildare |
5/4(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Doctor Kildare 5/4, Doctor Dino gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser in France Thrilling and useful French hurdler/chaser Placenet. Of obvious interest on debut for leading yard. 170,000euros yearling; represents powerful connections and has the 4yo allowance. |
|||
5th (10)  (40/1 -150%)Lightning Maqueen |
40/1(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Lightning Maqueen 40/1, Jack Hobbs gelding. Dam is a fair 2m hurdle winner and also 7f/1¼m winner who stayed 13.5f on Flat. Betting can prove a good indicator on his debut. Not as stoutly bred as some of these but connections are respected. |
|||
6th (11)  (13/2 +59%)The Expensive One |
13/2(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) The Expensive One 13/2, €56,000 3-y-o, Harzand gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including smart bumper winner/top-class hurdler The New One and fairly useful chaser The Newest One. Yard can ready its newcomers so he can't be discounted. Half-brother to top-class hurdler The New One; a respected newcomer. |
|||
7th (5)  (9/1 +55%)Job |
9/1(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Job 9/1, Coastal Path gelding. Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Ivanohe. Fourth sole start in Irish points (May 2023) and newcomers from this yard are often fancied. Wears hood. Possibilities. Close up in an Irish point; hooded for rules debut and probably best watched. |
|||
7th (6)  (20/1 -67%)Lahinch Strand |
20/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Lahinch Strand 20/1, Kayf Tara gelding. Brother to useful hurdler The Friday Man. Dam 2m-2½m hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Appeals on paper for yard no stranger to success in this sphere. Second foal; brother to bumper and useful 2m-2m5f hurdle winner The Friday Man. |
|||
9th (4)  (18/1 -177%)Jafimgoso |
18/1(-177%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jafimgoso 18/1, Jack Hobbs gelding. Dam fairly useful 2m/2½m hurdle winner. Noteworthy newcomer who is worth a market check. First reported foal; dam 2m/2m3f hurdle winner; likely contender for leading yard. |
|||
10th (8)  (300/1 -500%)Sir Rodney |
300/1(-500%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sir Rodney 300/1, Passing Glance gelding. Dam, ran once in bumper, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 25f) Tarablaze. Dam half-sister to several winners at up to 3m1f; up against it on debut. |

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.
