12:00 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Having found only an exciting stablemate too good over C&D, WILD ANGEL can go one better. The Godolphin juvenile has yet to finish outside the first three in her career to date and she can get off the mark at the fourth time of asking. Lope De Vega filly Bright Times Ahead represents the red-hot Ralph Beckett yard and is a newcomer to note, while the Gosdens' debutant Swiss Lightning also warrants respect.

WILD ANGEL is proving consistent rather than progressive but her experience should count for plenty up against mostly newcomers. Bright Times Ahead comes from a yard that has a strong team of 2-y-os this year so she may emerge as the biggest threat ahead of the Gosden trained-pair Swiss Lightning and Banyan.

Wild Angel sets the standard but William Haggas has a fine record in this novice and SILVER CHAMBER is taken to enhance it further.

12:32 Newmarket Stakes (Class 4) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

LUNA GIRL defied a big price when third over C&D and the runner-up she was less than a length behind bids to frank the form in today's opener. Richard Hannon's filly is fancied to take another step forward and she should take the beating. Blue Secret has been costly to follow so far but was only beaten half a length at Wolverhampton and she can put forward another bold bid. Bridget's View should be able to build on her debut fifth at Haydock.

BRIDGET'S VIEW caught the eye when a close fifth at Haydock on debut in August and could be the answer in what looks an ordinary novice for the track. Market support for one of the newcomers would look significant, with Blast The Dream and Sea Poetry both appealing as likely types.

Among those with experience, LUNA GIRL is preferred to Bridget's View and Blue Secret, but the newcomers have to be feared.

Low-key stable debut in June and absent since; others look safer.

(12) Music Society 12/1, It's now 28 runs since his last win in 2022 but he posted a creditable third of 10 in handicap at Redcar (6f, heavy) 5 days ago. Merits consideration.

13:07 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

The consistent Harry's Halo ran on strongly to lead close home at Redcar and appears primed to sustain another strong bid, although the 4lb rise may be difficult to defy. Therefore, a chance is taken on DASHING DICK, who shaped as if this drop in trip should suit when second over 7f at Yarmouth. Off an unchanged mark, William Stone's runner can add a Rowley Mile success to his two victories on the July Course here. Recent Nottingham scorer Bay Breeze completes the shortlist.

A tight-knit sprint in which HARRY'S HALO rates just the pick of the weights on the back of his recent Redcar victory so he edges the vote. The consistent Dashing Dick is next on the list, although a solid case can also be made for Bay Breeze, Music Society and Spring Bloom.

Spring Bloom and Dashing Dick can feature but dropping into 0-80 company could see a return to top form from MANY A STAR.

(1) Modern Utopia 4/1, Came from the back of the pack to rout her rivals with ease in Nottingham (extended 1m) nursery 17 days ago, relishing both the long trip and more testing ground. Well-bred filly who can follow up raised 8 lb.

13:42 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 9f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Anything running for the super-charged Ralph Beckett yard has to be of interest at present and CHELSEA EMBANKMENT is another highly attractive stable contender. A visor is added in a bid to provide the missing ingredient for a first career win, with trip and ground to suit. Nursery debutant Grecian Legacy could flourish if he copes with stepping up in trip back on turf, while Nottingham winner Modern Utopia also appeals, despite an 8lb higher mark.

MODERN UTOPIA ran out a very impressive winner of a deep-ground Nottingham nursery and can follow up after an 8 lb rise if she's in the same sort of form. Charming Fellow is highly respected after his Pontefract victory, while Vilaine Verlaine and Grecian Legacy are also in the hunt.

A slow learner, CHARMING FELLOW is now thriving in nurseries and the form of his Pontefract win looks solid. He can follow up.

14:17 Newmarket Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

The progressive Tribal Chief is shortlisted because he has won his last three starts in a cosy manner and might well brush aside a further 9lb hike imposed after showing a good turn of foot to win a class 4 handicap at Yarmouth. However, this is a stiffer test and, with that in mind, it could be worth chancing the reliable PLANTADREAM, who went down by just a short head against mainly higher-rated opposition at Goodwood most recently. Encourageable and Spirit Catcher also warrant serious consideration.

TRIBAL CHIEF is improving quickly and, having scored in impressive fashion at Yarmouth on his most recent outing, a 9 lb rise may not be enough to prevent the 4-timer. Plantadream came agonisingly close to ending a long losing run at Goodwood in August and can go well once again, with Waiting All Night completing the shortlist having shaped better than the bare result in the Cambridgeshire Handicap last month.

Tribal Chief and Bullet Point may grab the most attention but ENCOURAGEABLE gains the vote. Plantadream is also shortlisted.

(1) Bassadanza 33/1, Winner of novices at Beverley (7.5f, good to firm) and Wolverhampton (7f), making all on both occasions. Her form is short of the required standard at this level but she's open to further progress.
Gamely made all in novices at Beverley (7.4f, good to firm) and Wolverhampton (7f, AW).

(2) Love Talk 14/1, Soft-ground winner on Redcar debut and got her head back in front in a valuable race on heavy ground at Goodwood (7f) in September. Well below that level when 12 lengths fourth of 5 in Pontefract listed event (1m, heavy) 12 days ago but place claims on her peak form.

14:50 Newmarket Listed (Class 1) 8f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

With Bassadanza noted on the back of two all-the-way successes over 7f, this is likely to be run at a strong tempo, especially as Protest is also capable of racing prominently and should kick on after her cosy win on debut at Chelmsford. However, SMOKEN impressed when striking in a Nottingham maiden 17 days ago and, rated an exciting prospect after that introduction, there should be more to come from this unexposed daughter of Too Darn Hot.

SMOKEN looked good on her Nottingham debut and is selected to make it 2-2 for in-form Ralph Beckett. Tundra Rose has looked promising on both starts and may provide the chief threat ahead of Protest but this is a race full of potential improvers.

It's not easy to weigh up the degrees of promise but SMOKEN is given the vote ahead of Waardah.

(1) Bolster 7/4, Bagged strong handicaps over this trip at Pontefract (heavy) and Epsom (soft) in the spring and returned to winning ways with a career best to defy a mark of 105 at York last time. Strong claims.
Big shout on latest handicap form, on soft; good ground or firmer may not be ideal.

Eydon

(3) Eydon 2/1, Smart horse. Course winner. 18/1, good ½-length second of 9 to Persica in listed race at Ayr (10f, good to firm) 42 days ago, nearest finish. Still lightly raced, fresher than his rivals, and should come on for latest effort, so big player.
Off 665 days before this season; ran well for joint-2nd in Ayr Listed race six weeks ago.

Something seemed amiss behind Eydon at Ayr six weeks ago; work to do even on his best form.

15:27 Newmarket Listed (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.

Having carried top weight when landing the spoils in a class 2 handicap at York last month, another prominent role is forecast from Bolster in this Listed event. However, the lightly-raced EYDON makes slightly more appeal on the back of his close-up second at this level in the Doonside Cup at Ayr. A similar performance may prove sufficient from Andrew Balding's charge and a second career victory beckons. The down-in-grade Checkandchallenge is unlikely to be far away either.

EYDON arguably shaped best when runner-up to Persica at Ayr last time and, with few miles on the clock, he can improve further to get the better of Bolster, who was better than ever last time. Checkandchallenge can compete if back to his best.

Four of the five appear in serious contention but back-to-form EYDON gets the vote ahead of last year's winner Checkandchallenge.

Has run some good races in handicaps, including over C&D; improvement needed off this mark.

Merits respect with her rider's claim off-setting her rise in weights.

Wins at 6f on AW and 7f at Sandown; may still have more to offer at this trip.

(8) Mysteryofthesands 11/4, Opened his account at Hamilton (8.3f) in July and largely in good form since, very good second from the front in 12-runner Doncaster handicap (7f, heavy) 7 days ago. Taking his racing well and he commands respect again.
Unexposed in 7f handicaps, having run well in two of them this autumn; not dismissed.

Last four wins at Epsom but good 4th of 17 in this race last year; not at best of late.

16:00 Newmarket Handicap (Class 4) 7f  Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

MADAME DE SEVIGNE scored a shade cosily when making headway from the rear and landing the spoils over C&D last month. Sean D Bowen negates a 3lb rise in the ratings with his claim and a brace could be on the cards for the three-year-old filly. The biggest threat may be served by Mysteryofthesands, who arrives on the back of a close-up second at Doncaster last week. Tennessee Gold and Hodler are others to consider.

Already a dual winner this term, TENNESSEE GOLD ran right up to his best when third in a big-field 3-y-o handicap at Newbury (7f) in August and back against his elders, he makes plenty of appeal again. Madame de Sevigne and Hodler come here in good order also and are feared. Pressure's On is another meriting a second look returned to this venue.

Hodler should be nailed on to run well in this race once more but MADAME DE SEVIGNE (nap) is on a roll over 7f and is preferred.

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.
