3
1st (3) (3.33/1 -33%) Goodbye Stranger
3.33
3.33/1(-33%)
(3) Goodbye Stranger 3.33/1, Kapgarde gelding. Dam lightly raced over hurdles, 9.5f/1¼m winner on Flat. Makes plenty of appeal on paper. Wears hood.
5
2nd (5) (12/1 -60%) Kentucky Hardboot
12
12/1(-60%)
(5) Kentucky Hardboot 12/1, =Fair on Flat and translated that ability to hurdling at first attempt when second to Overpriced at Kempton (2m) on debut. Disappointing next time, however.
6
3rd (6) (4/1 +50%) Leylak
4
4/1(+50%)
(6) Leylak 4/1, Fair form in maidens on Flat up to 1½m, sold from M. Halford €31,000 in November. Has joined one of the top NH stables, so one to consider switched to hurdling.
10
4th (10) (8/1 +20%) Tinnahalla
8
8/1(+20%)
(10) Tinnahalla 8/1, Showed plenty of ability on the Flat for Jamie Osborne (albeit below form last time) and is related to winning hurdlers, so he's a notable debutant in this sphere.
4
5th (4) (20/1 -11%) Iron Heart
20
20/1(-11%)
(4) Iron Heart 20/1, Fairly useful Flat winner for Andrew Balding and suffered a wound to his left fore when slightly underwhelming on hurdling debut for new yard, so entitled to improve on that.
11
6th (11) (50/1 -213%) Wightman
50
50/1(-213%)
(11) Wightman 50/1, Fairly useful Flat performer who was below form last time and isn't really bred to be a jumper, so unlikely to make a serious impact on first go in this discipline.
2
7th (2) (10/1 +70%) Albert Van Ornum
10
10/1(+70%)
(2) Albert Van Ornum 10/1, Fair form in 4 races on Flat in France, successful over 13f in September, well held last time. Left G. Hernon 17,000 gns later in October and may well have a considerate start to hurdling.
1
8th (1) (3/1 -33%) Overpriced Mixer
3
3/1(-33%)
(1) Overpriced Mixer 3/1, Dual Flat winner and made successful start over hurdles at Kempton (2m) despite looking wayward. Still in with a chance when unseating at Ludlow next time, so definite claims.
9
9th (9) (28/1 -40%) Splinter
28
28/1(-40%)
(9) Splinter 28/1, Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler Fantastic Ms Fox. Fair but temperamental on the Flat and this is a tricky starting point to his hurdling career.
7
10th (7) (8/1 -14%) Night Bear
8
8/1(-14%)
(7) Night Bear 8/1, Above-average on the Flat and picked up for £65,000 from Ed Vaughan since last seen, so not dismissed starting out over hurdles for new yard.
8
|PU| (8) (66/1 -164%) Prince Percy
66
66/1(-164%)
(8) Prince Percy 66/1, Fair maiden on Flat but went backwards from hurdling debut when pulled up in juvenile at Plumpton 87 days ago. Hard to make a case for.

1st (8) (0.57/1 +8%) Lecale's Article
0.57
0.57/1(+8%)
(8) Lecale's Article 0.57/1, Bought for €320,000 after winning his sole outing in Irish points (April 2018). Has clearly taken a while to make it to the track but is in excellent hands so needs taking seriously.
10
2nd (10) (9/1 -125%) Restandbethankful
9
9/1(-125%)
(10) Restandbethankful 9/1, Made a winning start in bumpers in 8-runner event at Perth (16.2f) in September. Added to an encouraging start when runner-up at Lingfield and is bred to make a hurdler.
9
3rd (9) (9/1 +10%) Major Robinson
9
9/1(+10%)
(9) Major Robinson 9/1, Overcame greenness to land 15-runner Thurles bumper on debut in March. Failed by a long way to match that form at Cheltenham 7 months later and has since had a wind op. First-time hood also applied.
16
4th (16) (7/1 +30%) She's A Novelty
7
7/1(+30%)
(16) She's A Novelty 7/1, Fair maiden on Flat who improved on her hurdling debut form in a first-time tongue strap when second a Newton Abbot novice (16.8f) in September. That was a thin race but she may do better still.
11
5th (11) (50/1 +38%) Thorn
50
50/1(+38%)
(11) Thorn 50/1, Fair Flat winner making hurdle debut in a hood. Probably best watched.
15
6th (15) (40/1 +20%) Isla's Dream
40
40/1(+20%)
(15) Isla's Dream 40/1, From the family of the prolific Yellow Flag. Two from 2 in points earlier in career but well held in a brace of novice hurdles.
3
7th (3) (200/1 -150%) Das Kapital
200
200/1(-150%)
(3) Das Kapital 200/1, Modest Flat winner but has been tailed off on both starts over hurdles.
5
8th (5) (80/1 -21%) Full Spes
80
80/1(-21%)
(5) Full Spes 80/1, Fair form when in the frame first 2 bumper starts but disappointing since, including over hurdles.
13
9th (13) (33/1 +18%) Ashazuri
33
33/1(+18%)
(13) Ashazuri 33/1, Fair on Flat, stays 1½m, not disgraced last time. Hood on for hurdle debut.
2
10th (2) (250/1 -25%) Calgary Tiger
250
250/1(-25%)
(2) Calgary Tiger 250/1, No great promise in bumpers and was well out of his depth when pulled up in the Dovecote Novices' Hurdle on debut in this sphere in February.
12
11th (12) (25/1 +62%) Thundersockssundae
25
25/1(+62%)
(12) Thundersockssundae 25/1, Produced a promising first effort when second in a Ffos Las bumper in October. Only seventh of 11 on Doncaster hurdling debut but needed the experience and should do better.
7
12th (7) (150/1 -88%) Joe Warbrick
150
150/1(-88%)
(7) Joe Warbrick 150/1, Looked one for later on when well held in a Fontwell bumper on debut last month, running green.
1
13th (1) (250/1 -150%) Beaufort
250
250/1(-150%)
(1) Beaufort 250/1, Modest and temperamental on Flat and no promise in 4 runs over hurdles.
14
14th (14) (250/1 -25%) Granny Frankham
250
250/1(-25%)
(14) Granny Frankham 250/1, Authorized mare who is yet to complete in 2 starts over hurdles.
4
15th (4) (5.5/1 -38%) Frankeur
5.5
5.5/1(-38%)
(4) Frankeur 5.5/1, Third in a couple of bumpers in France in spring 2019. Absent since but still interesting now setting out for new yard, particularly if backed. Has a tongue tie added.
6
16th (6) (100/1 -52%) Go Pharisee Flyer
100
100/1(-52%)
(6) Go Pharisee Flyer 100/1, Hinted at ability in a pair of bumpers, but looked one for later on in this sphere when well held in a novice hurdle at Ffos Las 17 days ago.
LTO Selection:
12:40 Newbury Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) St Barts 1.5/1, Lightly-raced winning pointer/hurdler who (15/2) made highly promising start over fences when second in 3m Exeter handicap 35 days ago. Goes well in the mud and holds leading claims raised just 3 lb.
3
2nd (3) (6.5/1 -30%) Versatility
6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(3) Versatility 6.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler and off the mark at the third attempt over fences at Ludlow 5 weeks ago, driven clear. Respected.
1
3rd (1) (6/1 +25%) Thegallantway
6
6/1(+25%)
(1) Thegallantway 6/1, Irish-point winner who returned as good as ever to land Bangor match event over hurdles (23f). Promising start over fences when third at Exeter 5 weeks ago and should have more to offer.
4
4th (4) (4/1 +0%) No Getaway
4
4/1(+0%)
(4) No Getaway 4/1, Fairly useful hurdles winner. Very much a chaser on looks and duly shaped very well on debut over fences when second at Market Rasen on return, making effort earlier than ideal. More to come.
8
5th (8) (25/1 -14%) Post War
25
25/1(-14%)
(8) Post War 25/1, Promising novice hurdler during 2016/17 campaign and didn't shape at all badly when sixth of 11 on chase debut here in December, his first run for 35 months. Improvement should be forthcoming.
5
|U| (5) (33/1 -50%) Spider's Bite
33
33/1(-50%)
(5) Spider's Bite 33/1, Winning hurdler who failed to build on promising start over fences, well held both starts last term. Off 11 months and first run for yard after leaving Henry Daly. Has had wind operation. Tongue tied.
10
|PU| (10) (5.5/1 +45%) Dublin Four
5.5
5.5/1(+45%)
(10) Dublin Four 5.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler and made the most of a good opportunity to get off the mark back in a maiden at Southwell in March. Good second on chase debut at Doncaster on return. Up in trip.
7
|PU| (7) (20/1 +9%) Diable De Sivola
20
20/1(+9%)
(7) Diable De Sivola 20/1, Useful hurdler/chaser but both starts this season have been disappointing.
LTO Selection:
13:10 Newbury Handicap Chase (Class 3) 23f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(1) Magic Of Light 0.5/1, Has won this for the last 2 years (both small-field affairs) and ripe for the hat-trick with cheekpieces re-fitted after a Punchestown pipe-opener over hurdles 31 days ago.
2
2nd (2) (2.75/1 +31%) Sensulano
2.75
2.75/1(+31%)
(2) Sensulano 2.75/1, Did well over fences last season, landing 20f listed mares' novice at Warwick. Better than the result on Cheltenham return and surely the one to capitalise if Magic of Light fluffs her lines.
3
3rd (3) (7/1 +18%) Carrolls Milan
7
7/1(+18%)
(3) Carrolls Milan 7/1, Likeable hurdler who has made a good start over fences, though arguably fortunate to win 3m Uttoxeter mares' novice last month. This is a big step up in class but she only has 2 rivals at least.

1st (4) (3.5/1 +46%) French Paradoxe
3.5
3.5/1(+46%)
(4) French Paradoxe 3.5/1, Well held sole bumper start but more like it when third in a Wetherby novice (19.7f) in October. Not in same form at Doncaster subsequently but too soon to be writing him off.
1
2nd (1) (0.44/1 +68%) Flash Collonges
0.44
0.44/1(+68%)
(1) Flash Collonges 0.44/1, Overcame inexperience to make a winning hurdles debut at Exeter (21.6f) in November and easy to overlook his subsequent Doncaster mishap (fell fourth). Remains open to improvement.
3
3rd (3) (16/1 +36%) Coral Lad
16
16/1(+36%)
(3) Coral Lad 16/1, €42,000 purchase who showed promise on debut in a Kempton bumper back in February but not in same form on return at Sandown (2m) last month. Hurdles debut.
9
4th (9) (80/1 +20%) Western Starlet
80
80/1(+20%)
(9) Western Starlet 80/1, Runner-up in an Ayr bumper on debut in January but tame effort at Warwick 2 months later and similarly well held both starts over hurdles this winter.
2
5th (2) (16/1 -78%) Barrakhov
16
16/1(-78%)
(2) Barrakhov 16/1, Sholokhov gelding who'd undergone wind surgery prior to his debut and was seemingly caught out by inexperience when fifth in a Stratford bumper last month. This should reveal more. Tongue tied.
10
6th (10) (28/1 +60%) Feodora
28
28/1(+60%)
(10) Feodora 28/1, Runner-up in a point and still going well when slipping up in Stratford bumper in May 2019. However backward steps in bumper/mares maiden hurdle for Toby Lawes. Has made an interesting yard switch.
5
|U| (5) (22/1 +78%) Henschke
22
22/1(+78%)
(5) Henschke 22/1, Finished down the field in a course bumper in November and similar story on hurdles bow back here 3 weeks ago. Probably one for later on.

1st (1) (2.5/1 +0%) Sao
2.5
2.5/1(+0%)
(1) Sao 2.5/1, Fairly useful chaser/hurdler for Paul Nicholls who was quite impressive in finally getting off the mark on British soil on third start for this yard at Hexham last month. 5 lb rise looks fair.
5
2nd (5) (6/1 +25%) Commis D'office
6
6/1(+25%)
(5) Commis D'office 6/1, Ex-French winning chaser. Placed a couple of times for this yard in 2018/19 and shaped like a non-stayer upped in trip at Fakenham when last seen in February. Likely to need this after 10 months off.
6
3rd (6) (12/1 -118%) Finnegan's Garden
12
12/1(-118%)
(6) Finnegan's Garden 12/1, Veteran who ended last season with a pair of victories at up to 17f and better for return when 2 lengths third at Lingfield (20f) 15 days ago. Sure to give his running once again.
4
4th (4) (6.5/1 -8%) Fairway Freddy
6.5
6.5/1(-8%)
(4) Fairway Freddy 6.5/1, Off the mark over fences when scoring at Kempton in October. However, not in the same form both starts since but this drop in trip will suit (all wins up to 2¼m).
7
5th (7) (8.5/1 -70%) Atlantic Storm
8.5
8.5/1(-70%)
(7) Atlantic Storm 8.5/1, In good heart during the summer and quickly back to form when winning at Hereford in October. Not in same form at Ludlow last month but every chance he can bounce back to his best here.
2
|PU| (2) (4/1 +0%) Doitforthevillage
4
4/1(+0%)
(2) Doitforthevillage 4/1, Useful at best but signs of decline last season and not much encouragement both starts this term. Handicapper continues to relinquish his grip and market support should be noted.
3
|PU| (3) (4.5/1 +31%) Flaminger
4.5
4.5/1(+31%)
(3) Flaminger 4.5/1, Took well to fences last season, winning back-to-back at Plumpton and Fontwell. Showed a willing attitude when making a winning return at latter track but needs to shrug off a pair of poor efforts.

2.5
2.5/1(-43%)
(5) Steel An Icon 2.5/1, Sixties Icon filly. Half-sister to 2 winners on Flat, including 1¼m-11f winner Tommys Geal. Dam 7f winner who stayed 9f. Highly respected on debut.
(1) Call Me Tara 1.25/1, Kayf Tara filly. Dam placed in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to fairly useful staying hurdler/chaser Caddie Master. Of obvious interest on debut.
2

9
9/1(+10%)
(2) Guilty Party 9/1, Half-sister to 2 winners on Flat, including useful 1¼m winner Eminence (by Sea The Stars). Little short-term encouragement starting out at Warwick. Visor applied.

About U.K Horse Racing
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.
