1st (1)  (13/2 -95%)From The Clouds |
13/2(-95%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) From The Clouds 13/2, Placed in points. Promise in bumper/novice hurdle on first 3 outings under Rules and came good in C&D maiden last month. Type to progress further. Won over C&D last month; further improvement needed but he's in good hands to progress. |
|||
2nd (7)  (11/2 +15%)Milcree |
11/2(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Milcree 11/2, Won sole start in point bumpers with ease last spring and shaped well amidst inexperience when third of 8 on 21.5f Ayr hurdle debut in December. Down in trip open to progress. Third at Ayr (2m5f); jumping/trip are question marks today but he certainly has potential. |
|||
3rd (3)  (4/6 +55%)Young Jack |
4/6(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Young Jack 4/6, Successful on second attempt in maiden points and promising second in a 2¾m novice at this venue before scoring over 2½m back here since. Much shorter trip asks a different question but this useful prospect doesn't look short of speed. Made all over 2m4f here last month and holds strong claims under a penalty. |
|||
4th (8)  (66/1 -164%)Visual Impact |
66/1(-164%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Visual Impact 66/1, £100,000 after finishing runner-up in a maiden point but only fourth of 6 on her Ayr bumper debut last month. Same connections' as From The Clouds. The betting should guide. Point runner-up; well beaten in sole bumper but should leave that behind at some stage. |
|||
5th (4)  (13/2 -136%)Ballyfort |
13/2(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ballyfort 13/2, Has shown ability on all 3 starts, particularly when third in 2m Kelso novice last month, making up a lot of ground from the rear. Definitely more to come from him and Brian Hughes up. Third in warm-looking novice at Kelso last time and he's a key player today. |
|||
6th (5)  (11/1 -22%)Benefit Ben |
11/1(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Benefit Ben 11/1, Maiden Irish pointer. Much better effort in 2m maiden hurdles for new yard when second of 10 at Ayr 38 days ago. Might do better again but Young Jack probably the owners' first string. Fair second at Sedgefield last month but may not come into his own until upped in trip. |
|||
7th (6)  (200/1 -300%)Foster's Fortune |
200/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Foster's Fortune 200/1, Modest in bumpers and well-held sixth on Catterick hurdle debut. Young Jack surely the stable's main hope. Failed to threaten in bumpers and well beaten at 33-1 on recent hurdle debut at Catterick. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Point winner YOUNG JACK was able to build on a promising Rules debut when posting a commanding victory over an extended 2m4f here last month. Assuming the drop in trip is no issue for Chris Grant's charge, he can repel the challenge of From The Clouds, who must also saddle a penalty for scoring over C&D three weeks ago. It was to Milcree's credit that he hit the frame at Ayr in December, having lacked fluency throughout, and he could take a step forward.
An interesting opener which can go the way of YOUNG JACK, who looks promising and can cope with the drop in trip. Ballyfort, Milcree and From The Clouds are others who appeal as capable of better and can follow the selection home in that order.
Having travelled well in front when winning over 2m4f here last month, YOUNG JACK is taken to defy a penalty now down in trip.

1st (4)  (15/2 +17%)Trac |
15/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Trac 15/2, Enjoyed an excellent season over fences last term, scoring 3 times, and resumed winning ways at Catterick (19.2f) during the Christmas period. Undone by higher marks since though not seen to best effect when fourth of 7 in handicap chase (14/1) at Carlisle (20f, heavy) 26 days ago. Won in December; hasn't run badly the last twice but needs something extra today. |
|||
2nd (2)  (6/1 -20%)Heritier |
6/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Heritier 6/1, Lightly raced for current yard and almost landed a gamble over fences at Sedgefield, finding only one too good. Decent third back over hurdles since and not taken lightly. Bumped into thriving winner when 2nd on last chase start; every chance he'll be in the mix. |
|||
3rd (1)  (9/4 -171%)Chase A Fortune |
9/4(-171%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Chase A Fortune 9/4, Has the physique for chasing and bettered his hurdles form at the first attempt when making a successful debut in this sphere at Catterick last month, making most. More to come and can defy 5 lb rise. Improved form when winning on chase debut at Catterick; strong contender up 5lb. |
|||
4th (3)  (12/1 -33%)Iwa |
12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Iwa 12/1, Fair hurdler/chaser in France but sent off at 100/1 when pulled up in Catterick handicap hurdle on return from long absence for new stable in January. Much better when fourth here since so could well be working up to something back over fences now. Two-time French chase winner; fair fourth over hurdles here latest; now back over fences. |
|||
5th (5)  (11/10 +67%)Take Centre Stage |
11/10(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Take Centre Stage 11/10, Placed on a couple of occasions over hurdles and opened chase account at the fourth attempt in good style over C&D (heavy) last month, making all. Just a respectable second under a penalty at Sedgefield the following week, not for the first time looking very awkward off the bridle. Not dismissed. Easy win over C&D last month; fences omitted when 6l second next time; retains potential. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Take Centre Stage couldn't back up last month's C&D success when filling the runner-up spot at Sedgefield eight days later. It's possible that run came too soon, though, and he merits respect along with Heritier, who continues to run well in defeat. However, CHASE A FORTUNE made a successful fencing bow at Catterick 18 days ago and, with the prospect of improvement forthcoming, he is taken to defy a subsequent 5lb rise.
CHASE A FORTUNE is built for chasing so it was no surprise that he justified market confidence first time up over fences at Catterick last month. Open to further improvement, he can defy a 5 lb rise. Take Centre Stage is not straightforward no doubt, but he did score easily over C&D under similar conditions 2 starts back so may emerge as the main threat.
Iwa is a tempting option but preference is for TAKE CENTRE STAGE who made all in fine style over C&D two starts ago.

1st (2)  (11/10 -10%)Brentford Hope |
11/10(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Brentford Hope 11/10, Bordering on smart on the Flat and easily bagged a third success over hurdles for current yard in a Newbury handicap in November. Posted 2 excellent efforts back over same C&D since and holds leading claims. Has run really well in defeat the last twice (on heavy latest) and holds very solid claims. |
|||
2nd (5)  (5/2 +9%)Horn Cape |
5/2(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Horn Cape 5/2, Has thrived since returning to hurdles and posted a career best to resume winning ways in 7-runner handicap over C&D 3 weeks ago. Hit with an 8 lb rise but seems sure to go well again. Progressive 7yo who won very easily over C&D last time; could still be ahead of h'capper. |
|||
3rd (4)  (18/1 -13%)Salsada |
18/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Salsada 18/1, Useful Flat/hurdles winner who looked rusty returning from 10 months off when tailed off in the Morebattle Hurdle (Handicap) at Kelso last time. Needs to leave that behind. Well treated on last season's form but tailed off on comeback at Kelso a fortnight ago. |
|||
4th (6)  (5/1 +33%)Slugger |
5/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Slugger 5/1, Has an ungainly way of going about things but made a winning start over hurdles in a Kelso novice on return in October and is in better form than his handicap form figures might suggest. Not dismissed. His last-time-out Kelso form has received huge boost; lightly raced; interesting contender. |
|||
5th (3)  (9/1 -29%)Albert's Back |
9/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Albert's Back 9/1, Enhanced a good record at Wetherby when successful there last March and shaped as if retaining ability when third there on return in November. Hasn't convinced back over fences the last twice but that shouldn't be held against him here. Has dropped below last winning mark but this 10yo's form has been patchy this season. |
|||
6th (1)  (25/1 -213%)Pay The Piper |
25/1(-213%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Pay The Piper 25/1, Useful chaser who was successful at Musselburgh (15.8f) in February. Yet to fire in three runs this term, pulling up at Haydock when last seen in November. Having his first start over hurdles for 3 years. Below par over fences this season but on a dangerous mark for this return to hurdling. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Horn Cape has been steadily progressive this campaign, so a subsequent 8lb hike for his latest C&D romp might underestimate the gelded son of Fame And Glory. Brentford Hope bumped into an improver at Newbury a fortnight ago and he is another who merits serious consideration, but it might be worth taking a chance on SALSADA. It was a disappointing return to action last time out, but Brian Ellison's charge, who achieved a peak rating of 94 when trained on the Flat and who chased home the classy Epatante in the Yorkshire Rose at Doncaster last year, is surely better than her current hurdles mark of 122.
BRENTFORD HOPE is a reliable, strong travelling type who ran well behind a last-time-out winner at Newbury 2 weeks ago and, providing this doesn't come too soon, he's the percentage call to resume winning ways. Horn Cape has thrived this season and will be no pushover, however, while Albert's Back could go well back over hurdles.
This could go to BRENTFORD HOPE, who is enjoying an extremely solid season and was a creditable second at Newbury a fortnight ago.

1st (1)  (6/5 -9%)Cruz Control |
6/5(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Cruz Control 6/5, Fairly useful bumper/hurdles winner who opened his account over fences here (20f) in November. Found just one too strong at Doncaster on next two starts and not seen to best effect when a never-nearer fifth in Eider here last time. Remains of interest. 2m4f course winner this season; fair fifth in 4m1f Eider latest; this trip could be ideal. |
|||
2nd (4)  (9/4 +0%)Jet Legs |
9/4(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Jet Legs 9/4, Dual winner over hurdles and has continued on the up over fences this season, scoring over C&D and in 3m handicap chase at Carlisle 26 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Up Helly Aa King. Good jumper who is not taken lightly despite another 5 lb rise. Two wins from his last three starts and this progressive 7yo is a major player. |
|||
3rd (3)  (10/1 -33%)Houston Texas |
10/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Houston Texas 10/1, Added to his fine record at Carlisle when scoring on return (26.2f) there in November. Below par both runs since however, back at Carlisle when only fifth of eight in 3m handicap 26 days ago. Has a bit to prove. Won at Carlisle on reappearance but below par the last twice; a return to form is needed. |
|||
4th (2)  (5/1 +0%)Up Helly Aa King |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Up Helly Aa King 5/1, Likeable chaser who landed 3m Ayr handicap in January and posted a good second of 8 to Jet Legs in handicap chase at Carlisle (24.5f, heavy) 26 days ago. Up 2 lb but this veteran is in the mix once more. Second to Jet Legs at Carlisle last time; 3lb better off with winner; could be thereabouts. |
|||
|PU| (5)  (12/1 +0%)East Street |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) East Street 12/1, Unreliable type who scored at Wetherby (24.2f) in November and went close over C&D next time. Well below par all 3 runs since though and others make more appeal. Went very close over C&D in December but has lost his form subsequently. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
JET LEGS arrives here having won two of his last three starts and a 5lb rise for the most recent of those wins may not be enough to stop him here. That said, Up Helly Aa King chased home the selection on that occasion and could give him plenty to think about once again. Cases can be made for all of the remainder, but Cruz Control is the pick of them.
CRUZ CONTROL wasn't seen to ideal effect when set a lot to do in the Eider here last time out so Tom Lacey's 7-y-o is well worth another chance to confirm himself handily weighted now reverted in trip. Jet Legs has also made a positive start over fences and rates a big threat though on the back of his cosy Carlisle success, with veteran Up Helly Aa King in the picture too.
2m4f course winner CRUZ CONTROL (nap) didn't see out 4m1f when a fair fifth in the Eider here and today's trip could be spot on.

1st (5)  (Evens -37%)Heritier De Sivola |
Evens(-37%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Heritier De Sivola Evens, Winning hurdler who has got his act together in this sphere with the aid of cheekpieces the last twice, latterly scoring by a country mile at Hexham (24.2f, heavy) on Thursday. Barely broke sweat there so this quick turnaround shouldn't be an issue and obvious claims under a penalty. Looks well treated under a penalty for his wide-margin win at Hexham on Thursday.. |
|||
2nd (4)  (11/4 +8%)Torosay |
11/4(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Torosay 11/4, Showed ability over hurdles last season and while she didn't take to fences initially, her latest second in a 4-runner Kelso handicap (2½m, heavy) was something of a step in the right direction. Should be well-served by this stiffer test and claims granted a fluent round of jumping. Stayed on for second here (2m4f, heavy) latest; should appreciate this step up in trip.. |
|||
3rd (3)  (15/2 +38%)Canelo |
15/2(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Canelo 15/2, One-time smart handicapper but has been on the downgrade for some time and there have been no signs of a revival in 3 starts since returning from a 15-month absence in December. Plummeting in the handicap; would be interesting if the market speaks in his favour.. |
|||
4th (2)  (5/1 +9%)Shadows In The Sky |
5/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Shadows In The Sky 5/1, Point winner who failed to build on his promising hurdles debut last season and, similarly, he has taken backward steps subsequent to finishing third on his second start in this sphere at Musselburgh (23.6f, soft) in December. Cheekpieces applied. Player if repeating his season's best but needs to improve on his other form this season.. |
|||
|PU| (1)  (14/1 -40%)Without Conviction |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Without Conviction 14/1, Successful at Ayr last March and recorded a couple of good runner-up efforts at Hexham in the autumn. Form has taken a turn for the worse since, though, and yard saddles a more appealing candidate in the shape of Torosay. Well treated on form earlier in the season; no surprise if she bounces back.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
TOROSAY bounced back to form when a close second over 2m4f here 11 days ago and the step up in trip could help the six-year-old to go one better now. Shadows In The Sky has not been at his best of late but is a player based on his third at Musselburgh in December, while similar comments apply to Without Conviction.
HERITIER DE SIVOLA came home in splendid isolation at Hexham on Thursday and will prove very hard to beat if turned out again quickly under a penalty here. Torosay's jumping still leaves much to be desired but her latest effort at Kelso was at least a step in the right direction and she is next on the list ahead of Shadows In The Sky.
This looks somewhat trappy but TOROSAY should be suited by this trip after taking a step in the right direction here last time.

1st (11)  (10/3 +49%)Call Me Jack |
10/3(+49%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Call Me Jack 10/3, Winner in hurdle at Southwell in February. 17/2, good second of 6 in handicap hurdle at this course (16.9f, heavy) 11 days ago. Going the right way and longer trip is in his favour, so worth a chance to resume winning ways. Staying-on second here (2m1f, heavy) recently; step up in trip positive; not ruled out.. |
|||
2nd (1)  (11/1 +67%)Les's Legacy |
11/1(+67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Les's Legacy 11/1, Three-time hurdle winner last season. Also twice runner-up at Hexham at the start of the current campaign but operating below his best since, finishing down the field at Musselburgh last month. Drops in grade, handy mark and stable among the winners; no surprise to see a revival.. |
|||
3rd (3)  (7/1 +56%)Paddy O'mahler |
7/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Paddy O'mahler 7/1, Showed ability in 3 qualifying runs before Christmas and back on track when fourth in handicap at Wetherby 16 days ago. Hasn't done much to indicate he's well treated, though. Encouraging handicap run last month; bit to prove on heavy but not ruled out.. |
|||
4th (5)  (6/1 -9%)Heard That |
6/1(-9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Heard That 6/1, Lightly raced and has upped his game since switched to handicaps, runner-up at Wetherby 51 days ago. No surprise if he pulls out more again, so strong contender. Close second at Wetherby latest; could be competitive despite 3lb rise.. |
|||
5th (2)  (15/2 +17%)Rob Roy Macgregor |
15/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Rob Roy Macgregor 15/2, Carlisle bumper winner in March. Offered something to work on first 2 hurdle starts but has gone backwards since. Has a bit to prove. Bumper winner (heavy); drops 2lb; bit to prove but a competitive effort wouldn't surprise.. |
|||
6th (9)  (9/2 +50%)Greenhill Gardens |
9/2(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Greenhill Gardens 9/2, Showed a bit in 2 bumpers/over hurdles. Only fourth in handicap over C&D 3 months ago (ran in void race March 5) but remains with potential. Shaped better in a void race back here latest; no surprise if he takes a step up on that.. |
|||
7th (6)  (5/1 -67%)Libor Lad |
5/1(-67%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Libor Lad 5/1, Opened his account with a smooth success at Uttoxeter (19.9f) in November and doubled his tally with a likeable display in a 12-runner event at Doncaster last time. Progressive sort who demands respect. Improved to win comfortably latest; acts on heavy; major player despite 9lb rise.. |
|||
8th (4)  (80/1 -700%)Western Glen |
80/1(-700%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Western Glen 80/1, Well held in 2 bumpers and yet to make an impact over hurdles, although finished with running left in a novice at this course last time. Could up her game now handicapping. More encouragement from her latest start; others press stronger claims; handicap debut.. |
|||
|PU| (10)  (9/1 +36%)Gentleman |
9/1(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Gentleman 9/1, Low-key in a bumper/trio of novices but has undergone a wind op since his latest start and worth a second look in the betting now making his way into handicap company. Tongue strap applied. Moderate form in all four starts; others make greater appeal.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CALL ME JACK was last seen finishing a running-on second over 2m1f here and, off an unchanged mark and with the step up in trip promising to suit, he gets the vote to show his rivals the way home. Dangers are aplenty and headed by Libor Lad, who scored comfortably over an extended 2m3f at Doncaster last month, while better can be expected from Gentleman on his first start since undergoing wind surgery.
CALL ME JACK improved to score at Southwell in February and backed it up with a solid showing when second here last time. The longer trip can bring out more progress and he's preferred to last-time-out winner Libor Lad, with Heard That also on the shortlist.
The suggestion is LES'S LEGACY who represents a stable back in good form, drops in grade and won a Class 2 this time last year.

13/2(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Gasmani 13/2, Getaway gelding who was successful on last of 3 starts in points and produced a promising first effort under Rules when fourth of 10 in bumper at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) last month. 33-1 when showing promise in an Exeter maiden bumper (heavy) last month; likely player.. |
|||
2nd (8)  (10/3 +90%)Thomas Rainwater |
10/3(+90%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Thomas Rainwater 10/3, Walk In The Park gelding who was well backed and can have a line put through his sixth of 10 in bumper at Exeter (16.7f, heavy) just under 5 weeks ago, dropping away after slipping/stumbling early in straight. Clearly thought capable of better. Still going okay when slipping 3f out on debut; no surprise if he is involved.. |
|||
3rd (3)  (20/1 +0%)Miami Steve |
20/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Miami Steve 20/1, Diamond Boy gelding who showed a bit when sixth of 11 in bumper at Wetherby (16f, heavy) 6 weeks ago. Step forward needed and looks yard's second string on jockey bookings. Didn't help his cause by racing freely on debut and should improve if he can settle.. |
|||
4th (4)  (13/2 +7%)Red Cadillac |
13/2(+7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Red Cadillac 13/2, Jukebox Jury gelding who was beaten a fair way by the first 2 but shaped well enough in his own right first time up when third of 10 in bumper at Carlisle (17f, soft) just under 6 weeks ago. Can build on that here. Promising third on soft-ground debut; trainer 20% (five seasons) in this sphere; player.. |

Half-sister to fairly useful 2½m/23f hurdle winner De Legislator and fair hurdler Allez Kal. Won sole start in Irish points (Nov 2023). Folly to ignore.

14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kathleen 14/1, Jack Hobbs mare. Dam modest 2¾m/23f hurdle winner. Betting can guide expectations. First foal; dam point and 2m6f/2m7f hurdle winner, half-sister to a point winner.. |

7th (9)  (28/1 +58%)Wor Lad |
28/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Wor Lad 28/1, Harbour Law gelding who went with little promise in a Kelso bumper (16.2f, soft) last month. Will need to leave that effort well behind. 14-1 in a Kelso maiden bumper (soft) last month, when never dangerous.. |

8th (1)  (5/1 +0%)Coast To Coast |
5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Coast To Coast 5/1, €32,000 3-y-o, Sholokhov gelding. Dam, runner-up sole start in bumpers, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stays 3m) Highway One O One. Of obvious interest on debut. Dam runner-up in bumper on only start, half-sister to two bumper winners; market check.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
In what looks a trappy affair to close the card, 32,000-euro purchase COAST TO COAST may emerge as a leading contender assuming he is fully tuned up for his debut. Representing the potent Donald McCain/Brian Hughes combination, he ticks a lot of boxes and there is a lot to like about his pedigree. Point-to-point winner Gasmani can make his presence felt along with Mountain Molly.
TYPHOON FLYER showed fairly useful form on both starts in bumpers for Yvonne Latta last year and with that experience sure to stand him in good stead, he's fancied to open his account starting out for a new yard after 3 months off. Lucinda Russell has had a couple of bumper winners at Ayr in recent weeks and her Mountain Molly heads up the dangers, while Red Cadillac and Coast To Coast can fight out third.
Nicky Richards does well in bumpers and RED CADILLAC, who was third on last month's debut at Carlisle, earns the vote.
Ths is the racecard key.

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.

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.

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.
