---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (6) (6.5/1 -44%) Crystal Guard |
6.5/1(-44%) | (6) Crystal Guard 6.5/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in November. Creditable fourth of 13 in handicap (5/1) at Southwell (12.1f) 34 days ago, headway under pressure 2f out but never nearer. Not out of things on balance. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (18/1 +36%) Riggsby |
18/1(+36%) | (4) Riggsby 18/1, Dual course winner (at 2m) last winter but operating some way below his best in recent months, left behind soon after 2f out when ninth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 23 days ago. Mark continues to ease at least. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (80/1 -100%) Bobba Tee |
80/1(-100%) | (2) Bobba Tee 80/1, Veteran C&D winner who went the wrong way from his return/yard debut at Southwell in December when trailing in last of 8 in a C&D handicap 10 days ago. Cheekpieces go on now but others make much more appeal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (11) (5.5/1 +45%) Thunder Gap |
5.5/1(+45%) | (11) Thunder Gap 5.5/1, Maiden who stepped up markedly on comeback run when runner-up over 10f here in October, headed 1f out but keeping on. Similar form when eighth in 14-runner Southwell handicap 4 weeks ago and he'll need to pull out more to break his duck here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (1.1/1 -10%) Quercus Robur |
1.1/1(-10%) | (1) Quercus Robur 1.1/1, Ended last year on a high, landing 2 of last 3 starts for Richard Fahey and continued good work for new yard, career-best when winning 8-runner handicap at this course (16.2f) 8 days ago. Versatile as regards trip and big player once more under a penalty. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (4.5/1 +25%) Hildenley |
4.5/1(+25%) | (5) Hildenley 4.5/1, Course winner. Latest win over 10f here in September. Essentially remained in form since, creditable third of 8 in handicap at this C&D (14/1) 10 days ago, without being seen to best effect. Should give another good account eased in grade. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (33/1 -83%) International Law |
33/1(-83%) | (9) International Law 33/1, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell (12f) in October. Respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Wolverhampton (14f, 11/1) 7 days ago, keeping on without threatening. Drop in trip will hold no fears here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (10) (40/1 -21%) Selecto |
40/1(-21%) | (10) Selecto 40/1, C&D winner who caused a shock when adding to his tally at Hamilton (12f) in September. However, he's proved more miss than hit in handful of starts on turf/AW since and others arrive with more pressing claims. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (80/1 -100%) Meet Me There |
80/1(-100%) | (7) Meet Me There 80/1, Churchill filly. 150/1, first run since leaving Andrew Oliver when fifth of 6 in maiden at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 31 days ago, in rear and ultimately never involved. However, does now get a crack at handicaps and worth a precautionary market check. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (33/1 -50%) Unbridled Power |
33/1(-50%) | (3) Unbridled Power 33/1, Modest form in trio of Irish bumpers but promise (fair form at best) in trio of starts in novice company for new yard this winter. Looked unsuited by drop to 7f here 23 days ago but gets a crack at handicaps back at this more suitable trip. Likely improver with visor enlisted. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (8) (16/1 -45%) Bouncing Bobby |
16/1(-45%) | (8) Bouncing Bobby 16/1, Successful over 13f prior to a consistent spell on the level last season. Opened account over hurdles at Carlisle (20f, heavy) in October and not disgraced when midfield upped to 3m here a month later. Each-way possibilities. |

1st (4) (16/1 -45%) Fast Style |
16/1(-45%) | (4) Fast Style 16/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who scored on Flat at Kempton (1m) for Roger Charlton during autumn 2021. Pulled up both starts over hurdles for Sam Allwood last summer but returns for yard adept at rejuvenating such types. Market may prove a useful guide. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (4/1 +20%) Perfect Swiss |
4/1(+20%) | (2) Perfect Swiss 4/1, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in December. 11/4, respectable third of 6 in handicap at this C&D 15 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Has good chance on form. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (8/1 +20%) Pallas Lord |
8/1(+20%) | (10) Pallas Lord 8/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 8 runs last year. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 12/1) 10 days ago, headway over 1f out and keeping on. Return to 1m rates a plus here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (6) (12/1 +0%) End Zone |
12/1(+0%) | (6) End Zone 12/1, 8/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this C&D in November, effort over 1f out and not quicken final 100 yds. Absent since but he arrives on a career-low mark so not ruled out. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (14/1 +13%) Showmedemoney |
14/1(+13%) | (5) Showmedemoney 14/1, Shed maiden tag from 3 lb lower mark at Musselburgh (9f) last spring prior to pair of creditable efforts in defeat on turf thereafter. Had wind op, shaped as if he'd come on for his C&D return fourth 2 weeks ago and tongue tie now enlisted. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (3/1 -60%) Bin Hayyan |
3/1(-60%) | (3) Bin Hayyan 3/1, Creditable third of 8 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 11/4) 15 days ago, not looking entirely straightforward but running on. Comes here on unchanged mark and he's one to bear in mind. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (10/1 +17%) Broctune Red |
10/1(+17%) | (9) Broctune Red 10/1, 6-time C&D winner who ran below best when fifth of 6 in a C&D handicap 15 days ago, outpaced 2f out and not quicken. However, he is a largely consistent sort and no surprise to see a better showing here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (20/1 -25%) Abnaa |
20/1(-25%) | (7) Abnaa 20/1, C&D winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 8 in handicap (9/1) at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago, plugging on without posing a threat. May be sharper with that under his belt but handicapper is proving slow to relinquish his grip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (6/1 +33%) Novak |
6/1(+33%) | (8) Novak 6/1, Course winner. 4/1, creditable second of 8 in handicap at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago, headed last ½f but keeping on. Can give a good account once more but both career victories have come at 7f. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (11) (40/1 -60%) Masham Moor |
40/1(-60%) | (11) Masham Moor 40/1, Dual scorer last winter, the first of those coming over C&D 13 months ago. Absent since finishing well held last of 9 in a C&D handicap in February in February (possibly amiss) and this run may well be needed on return. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (1) (7/1 +13%) Drakeholes |
7/1(+13%) | (1) Drakeholes 7/1, 4-y-o who looked well served by making running/dropped in trip when making a winning yard debut in a 7f novice here 23 days ago, edging left over 1f out and drawing clear. More on his plate back in a handicap but that may not be his limit for this stable. |

1st (3) (12/1 -33%) First Snowfall |
12/1(-33%) | (3) First Snowfall 12/1, Maiden. Respectable 6¾ lengths fifth of 11 to Calcutta Dream in minor event at Chelmsford (10f, 9/1) 9 days ago, not ideally placed. Needs a couple of these to falter. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (8.5/1 -21%) Mr Coco Bean |
8.5/1(-21%) | (4) Mr Coco Bean 8.5/1, Twenty three runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, creditable second of 14 in minor event at this course (7.1f) 8 days ago, good headway 2f out and keeping on. Can give another good account back up in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (0.57/1 +54%) Calcutta Dream |
0.57/1(+54%) | (1) Calcutta Dream 0.57/1, C&D winner last spring who capitalised on drop in grade when gaining second career success at Chelmsford (10f) 9 days ago, trapped wide from his draw but still proving much too good. Big player in follow-up bid. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (12/1 -20%) Big Dutchie |
12/1(-20%) | (2) Big Dutchie 12/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. 11/2, creditable fifth of 10 in minor event at Wolverhampton (12.2f) 9 days ago, collared final 1f and weakening. Return to 10f should help. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (12/1 +25%) Odd Socks Havana |
12/1(+25%) | (5) Odd Socks Havana 12/1, Course winner. Ninth of 12 in handicap (18/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 21 days ago. Back up in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (20/1 -82%) Strong Team |
20/1(-82%) | (7) Strong Team 20/1, Hurdles winner who ran well when third in a C&D minor event 8 days ago, challenging 2f out and no extra last ½f. Drop back in trip will hold no fears on that evidence and he's not out of things. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (16/1 +0%) Oot Ma Way |
16/1(+0%) | (6) Oot Ma Way 16/1, C&D winner. Below form sixth of 10 in minor event (17/2) at this course (12.4f) 8 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Cheekpieces back on. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (9/1 -64%) Mister Falsetto |
9/1(-64%) | (11) Mister Falsetto 9/1, Finished third in maiden/1m handicap here early last year and best effort since when fourth in 11-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago, no extra final 1f having expended extra energy early. Good shout at this level. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (66/1 -89%) Sugarpiehoneybunch |
66/1(-89%) | (8) Sugarpiehoneybunch 66/1, Maiden who struggled to make an impact on 3 of her 4 starts during first half of last year. Seemingly not 100% on final start over C&D in May but she's not the easiest to weigh up in any case on return. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (300/1 -500%) Kitty Pi |
300/1(-500%) | (10) Kitty Pi 300/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, again showed little when ninth of 10 in handicap at Carlisle (7.8f, good to firm) in August. Hard to warm to back from a break/up in trip. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (9) (150/1 -436%) Justathimble |
150/1(-436%) | (9) Justathimble 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Last of 11 in minor event at Wolverhampton (7.2f, 100/1) 59 days ago. Significantly up in trip. |

12/1(+14%) | (5) Via Serendipity 12/1, Smart gelding. Good third of 7 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f, 8/1) 17 days ago, conceding first run. Merits consideration. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

5/1(-50%) | (3) King Of The South 5/1, Smart gelding. 5-time course winner. Creditable second of 5 in handicap at Wolverhampton (12.2f, 2/1) 40 days ago. Reliable sort who is likely to be on the premises. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (12/1 -33%) Tyson Fury |
12/1(-33%) | (4) Tyson Fury 12/1, Useful gelding. 25/1, below form 10¼ lengths sixth of 11 to Missed The Cut in listed race at Lingfield (10f, AW) 61 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. |

12/1(-71%) | (5) Magicdollar 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, fifth of 8 in nursery at this course (7.1f) 79 days ago, unsuited by way race developed. Should have more to offer, so merits respect. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7.5/1 +58%) Look Back Smiling |
7.5/1(+58%) | (1) Look Back Smiling 7.5/1, 12/1, fourth of 5 in nursery at Kempton (11f) 24 days ago. Down in trip. Others make more appeal. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (10/1 -25%) Naomi's Charm |
10/1(-25%) | (4) Naomi's Charm 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good fifth of 13 in nursery at Southwell (8.1f, 12/1) 14 days ago, not ideally placed. Not discounted. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

2.5/1(+25%) | (3) Imperial Ace 2.5/1, Promising type. 16/1, showed plenty to work on when third of 7 in minor event at Wolverhampton (8.6f) on debut 30 days ago, green but running on. Looks sure to come on plenty for that initial experience. Player. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (2.25/1 -29%) Laser Guided |
2.25/1(-29%) | (4) Laser Guided 2.25/1, Kingman colt. 15/2, sixth of 13 in novice event at Kempton (1m) on debut 57 days ago, no extra final 1f and not knocked about. In good hands and highly likely he will have more to offer going forward. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 -33%) Golden Passport |
4/1(-33%) | (1) Golden Passport 4/1, Acclamation colt who confirmed promise of his debut effort on turf at Salisbury when running out a good winner of a Wolverhampton novice (7f) in September. Player under a penalty with prospect of more to come. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

7/1(+22%) | (5) Open Choice 7/1, $65,000 yearling, €100,000 2-y-o, Classic Empire colt. Half-brother to 1m winner Melendez. Dam US 1m winner. Market should prove a useful guide on debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (14/1 -56%) Zapphire |
14/1(-56%) | (8) Zapphire 14/1, Zoffany filly who was sent off at huge odds but displayed plenty of promise when running on late for fourth in an 11-runner novice here (7f) in November. Entitled to have derived plenty from that and no surprise to see her thereabouts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (18/1 +64%) Book Of Tales |
18/1(+64%) | (2) Book Of Tales 18/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 14 in novice event (50/1) at Kempton (1m) 6 weeks ago, ridden 2f out and making little impression. Rates a likely longer-term project. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (10/1 +29%) Sunfyre |
10/1(+29%) | (7) Sunfyre 10/1, Twilight Son gelding. 2/1, improved on debut effort despite proving too keen early when third of 9 in maiden at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago. Remains with potential but he will need to settle better now upped to 1m. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (40/1 +39%) Ski Jump |
40/1(+39%) | (6) Ski Jump 40/1, Twice-raced maiden. Ninth of 11 in maiden (12/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 44 days ago, off the bridle long way out and always behind. Rates a likely type for handicaps in due course. |

1st (7) (2.75/1 -83%) Kraken Power |
2.75/1(-83%) | (7) Kraken Power 2.75/1, Just the 1 win from 31 Flat runs but he was major eyecatcher when fifth of 10 over 6f here last week, still on the bridle when shuffled back to the rear approaching the final 1f before running on in the closing stages. Taken to finally get his head in front again. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (4.5/1 +10%) Modular Magic |
4.5/1(+10%) | (2) Modular Magic 4.5/1, Dual turf winner in 2021. Drawn a blank since but latest Southwell fourth was respectable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (8/1 +6%) Idoapologise |
8/1(+6%) | (3) Idoapologise 8/1, Course winner who won 3 times at other AW venues in the autumn. Run of good form came to a halt last month, though. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

10/1(+38%) | (5) Ruggles 10/1, 12/1, respectable eighth of 14 in handicap over this C&D 86 days ago, never nearer after being steadied at the start. Being dropped another 3 lb can only help. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (20/1 +9%) Another Angel |
20/1(+9%) | (6) Another Angel 20/1, Seven-time C&D winner but it's now 32 runs since last win in 2020. Sixth of 9 in handicap (25/1) at this course (6f) 8 days ago, going off too hard. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

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.
