1st (4)  (2.25/1 +50%)Reel Rosie |
2.25/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Reel Rosie 2.25/1, Redcar novice winner (7f) as a 2-y-o who arrives having run best race when runner-up on return/handicap debut at Nottingham (8.3f) in April, beaten only by one well ahead of its mark. One to be interested in. | |||
2nd (5)  (4/1 +11%)Convection |
4/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Convection 4/1, Career-best when ending 2-y-o campaign with success in a Kempton nursery (7f) and similar form when third on return at Nottingham (8.3f) last month (Reel Rosie placed second). Should give another good account. | |||
3rd (3)  (14/1 -115%)Smiling Jayne |
14/1(-115%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Smiling Jayne 14/1, 120,000 purchase as a yearling who shaped well when runner-up on debut in a Haydock novice (1m) last summer. Not matched that either start since, including on return at Ayr (7.2f) but does now get a crack at handicaps and one to monitor closely in the betting. | |||
4th (6)  (12/1 +0%)Doolily |
12/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Doolily 12/1, Fair maiden who made frame on 4 of her 5 starts in novice events at up to 7f last year. Strictly below best on back of 4 months off at Bath (1m) in April though, and cheekpieces go on now handicapping. | |||
5th (2)  (2.75/1 +21%)Lucia Joy |
2.75/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Lucia Joy 2.75/1, Ulysses filly. Proved easy to back but matched previous best in first-time cheekpieces when landing 9-runner Thirsk maiden (7f) 12 days ago, making all. Expected to go well again on handicap debut. | |||
6th (1)  (4.5/1 -64%)Eshtora |
4.5/1(-64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Eshtora 4.5/1, Shamardal filly who justified support to make a winning debut in a Wolverhampton novice (8.6f) early last month. Similar form despite finishing last of 6 in a conditions' event at Kempton (1m) since and she remains with potential now handicapping. |

1.62/1(-103%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) One Morning 1.62/1, Well-related Gleneagles filly who made a promising start when second of 7 in maiden at Newbury (7f, good to firm) 25 days ago. Sure to to improve. One to beat. | |||
2nd (4)  (2.5/1 +29%)Victoria Grove |
2.5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Victoria Grove 2.5/1, Fair maiden who signed off 2021 with good second at Chelmsford City (7f) 7 months ago. Solid claims on form. | |||

1.62/1(+51%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Public Opinion 1.62/1, Dark Angel filly. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner who stayed 1m. Much respected newcomers from top yard. | |||

25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Days Like This 25/1, Twice-raced filly and modest form shown thus far, though she wasn't knocked about when sixth of 8 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) 22 days ago, May well do better. |

1st (4)  (7.5/1 +32%)Red Flyer |
7.5/1(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Red Flyer 7.5/1, Progressive, winning first 2 starts on AW this year and unlucky not to go in again at Wolverhampton (12.2f) in March. Never threatened from wide draw at Lingfield since and present mark doesn't look beyond him. | |||
2nd (3)  (1/1 +56%)Bague D'or |
1/1(+56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bague D'or 1/1, Dual winner last season, latest on July course in August. Ended 2021 with a solid runner-up effort at Yarmouth in October and having made a winning reappearance last term, he's high on the shortlist with yard having made a good start to the season. | |||
3rd (1)  (11/1 -38%)Blow Your Horn |
11/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Blow Your Horn 11/1, Improved when bagging a couple of AW handicaps last spring. Didn't run much of a race after 8 months off at Musselburgh recently and he's arguably of more interest on the all-weather. Others preferred. | |||
4th (6)  (5/1 +29%)Alpha King |
5/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Alpha King 5/1, A tricky customer for the Gosden team but he ran up to best after 8 months off when runner-up at Yarmouth 16 days ago, making late headway under a hands-and-heels ride. Hood applied for the first time and he may well feature if building on that effort. | |||
5th (7)  (3/1 +75%)Thai Power |
3/1(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Thai Power 3/1, Kempton scorer in summer 2020 and ended that campaign with a respectable fifth of 14 at Salisbury (14.2f), despite seeming to lack focus under pressure. Not seen for 20 months (gelded in the interim), so a watching brief is advised on this return to action. |

40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mugader 40/1, Olympic Glory colt who showed plenty to work on amidst greenness when third of 10 in maiden at Wolverhampton (9.5f) but went backwards switched to turf when down the field here last month. | |||

1.25/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Aimeric 1.25/1, 360,000 gns yearling, Frankel colt.

1.38/1(+23%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bolthole 1.38/1, Made winning start at Windsor in August and, following a breathing operation and 7 months off, got back on track when third in a Sandown handicap on reappearance. Needs to build on that. | |||
2nd (1)  (3.33/1 -77%)Haunted Dream |
3.33/1(-77%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Haunted Dream 3.33/1, Has returned in top form this spring, scoring comfortably at Beverley and Lingfield. Only up 4 lb for latest success and return to this trip shouldn't be an issue, so makes plenty of appeal. | |||
3rd (6)  (6/1 -33%)Bulleit |
6/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Bulleit 6/1, Progressive sort who scored comfortably at Kempton in March, then was a shade unlucky not to follow up there last time. Longer trip should suit, so he's a big player. | |||
4th (5)  (7.5/1 +46%)Alvediston |
7.5/1(+46%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Alvediston 7.5/1, Never really kicked on for William Haggas and was picked up relatively cheaply by new connections, so he has a bit to prove after a short break. | |||
5th (3)  (14/1 -17%)Spy |
14/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Spy 14/1, Gelded and much improved when making all in 8-runner handicap at Wolverhampton in March, but failed to back it up at Epsom later that month. Could bounce back. | |||

5.5/1(+54%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Canters Well 5.5/1, Fair maiden who made a mildly encouraging start for this stable when third in a maiden at Yarmouth 16 days ago, promising to come on for the run. Mark demands improvement, but he's not fully exposed. |

11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Tarbaan 11/1, Won 9.5f Wolverhampton maiden in February and performed to a similar level when fourth in 1¼m Redcar novice last month. Drops back in trip for handicap debut. Unexposed. | |||
2nd (5)  (2.5/1 +0%)Kitsune Power |
2.5/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kitsune Power 2.5/1, Left his 2-y-o form behind when making a successful handicap debut over 7f at Leicester last month. Raised 5 lb but he appeals as one who can go on improving. | |||
3rd (10)  (40/1 +39%)Youthful King |
40/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Youthful King 40/1, Lingfield (AW) novice winner last autumn but hasn't shown enough in his 3 handicap starts since to be too positive about his prospects this evening. | |||
4th (8)  (8/1 +20%)Let's Fly Again |
8/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Let's Fly Again 8/1, Stepped up on his 3 juvenile runs when neck second of 4 in 1m Chepstow handicap on reappearance 14 days ago. Nudged up 2 lb but still respected. | |||
5th (2)  (11/1 -29%)Chief's Will |
11/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Chief's Will 11/1, Won a 7f Musselburgh novice last July and improved when second in 1m Ripon handicap on reappearance, albeit no match for the useful winner. Likely to be competitive here. | |||
6th (6)  (7/1 -40%)Giewont |
7/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Giewont 7/1, Improved with 2 AW handicap wins for new yard in March and showed he's equally as effective on turf with third of 15 in C&D handicap at the Craven meeting. That looks solid form and should give another good account. | |||
7th (11)  (22/1 +33%)Aldbourne |
22/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Aldbourne 22/1, Fair maiden who left Andrew Balding after his final 2-y-o start and was never involved in 1m Haydock handicap on his reappearance. Will need to have come on a lot. | |||
8th (1)  (18/1 -13%)Ardbraccan |
18/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Ardbraccan 18/1, Showed determination to open her account in 7f July Course maiden last summer but she hasn't really kicked on from that. Reappearance run over 1m at Doncaster was respectable but she's likely vulnerable under top weight here. | |||
9th (3)  (4.5/1 +25%)Damaar |
4.5/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Damaar 4.5/1, Sandown debut winner last summer. Cheekpieces added, might have needed run when sixth of 15 in C&D handicap on return, with the reopposing Giewont 4 lengths ahead in third. With a top yard and still early days. Headgear off this time. | |||
10th (9)  (10/1 -11%)Looe Beach |
10/1(-11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Looe Beach 10/1, Showed improved form to get off the mark on his Bath handicap debut 18 days ago, proving suited by a well-run race at 1m and nicely on top at the line. This a step up in class but he's still one for the shortlist. | |||
|PU| (4)  (9/1 -13%)Wild Mountain |
9/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Wild Mountain 9/1, 6f nursery winner at Kempton last autumn and good close third in 7f Goodwood handicap on return 12 days ago. Thereabouts if stamina holds now stepping up in distance. |

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.
