Races & Results Wednesday 17th May 2023
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(4) Inferno Sacree 3.5/1, Free-going front runner who made it 4 wins in his last 5 starts when seeing off 5 rivals at Perth last month. Should still be very competitive after a further 9 lb rise, although this trip is possibly a bit further than ideal. Front-running tactics have seen him win four of last five; up another 9lb; hard to catch.
5
2nd (5) (4.5/1 +40%) The Plimsoll Line
4.5
4.5/1(+40%)
(5) The Plimsoll Line 4.5/1, Bounced back from a below-par run in the mud at Sandown when creditable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (19f, good to soft, 15/2) 20 days ago. Only win came in a maiden hurdle a year ago; needs to better recent handicap efforts.
3
3rd (3) (5/1 -82%) Monjules
5
5/1(-82%)
(3) Monjules 5/1, Progressive since joining this yard, winning 3 handicap hurdles last season and also second at Fontwell last month. Recent second on the Flat show's he's still in good form. Likely to go well again. Good Flat run recently and 3-5 over hurdles for yard; obvious contender.
2
4th (2) (5/1 -43%) Swinging London
5
5/1(-43%)
(2) Swinging London 5/1, Arrives on the back of 3 creditable placed efforts in handicap hurdles and likely to have a big say, particularly if pulling out a bit more for first-time cheekpieces. Running reasonably in recent starts but probably needs cheekpieces to offer some help.
6
5th (6) (66/1 -65%) Atholl Street
66
66/1(-65%)
(6) Atholl Street 66/1, Maiden/novice hurdle winner at Taunton in late 2020 but it's been a struggle since, including in 4 starts for current yard this spring. Has yet to find his form for this yard.
1
|U| (1) (3/1 +54%) The Pink'n
3
3/1(+54%)
(1) The Pink'n 3/1, Course winner. 11/1, good fourth of 13 in handicap at Wincanton (21.5f, soft) 31 days ago. Enters calculations. Better when fourth at Wincanton last month and could be involved at this shorter trip.
7
|PU| (7) (8/1 -60%) Polyphonic
8
8/1(-60%)
(7) Polyphonic 8/1, Fairly useful 11f winner on Flat for Karl Burke who got off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt in a Fontwell juvenile in December. Good runner-up efforts in Fontwell handicap (to Monjules) and Ffos Las novice on his last 2 outings. Close second to Monjules two starts ago; second again since and enters the argument.
9
|PU| (9) (80/1 -300%) Fongs Way
80
80/1(-300%)
(9) Fongs Way 80/1, No impact in handicap hurdles in Ireland and watching brief is advised on this yard debut after 5 months off unless the betting strongly hints otherwise. Unplaced in all nine Irish starts; best watched on stable debut.
LTO Selection:
14:05 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
The Pink'n gave a good account when fourth in deeper waters at Wincanton last month and demands the utmost respect now eased in grade. He remains winless since March 2020, though, and preference goes to INFERNO SACREE. The five-year-old readily dismissed his rivals at Perth last time out and he gets the nod to continue his ascendancy. Monjules finished second at Fontwell on his latest outing and is another to consider.
The suggestion is SWINGING LONDON in the hope that first-time cheekpieces see him pull out a little more. Monjules and Polyphonic, who are closely matched on Fontwell form at the start of the spring, and thriving front runner Inferno Sacree are others likely to have a say.
Two progressive types in this field and MONJULES is taken to beat Inferno Sacree.
(4) Oakley Dancer 6.5/1, Showed a bit in a Hexham bumper and improved on previous hurdling efforts when landing a 9-runner novice at Chepstow (16.1f) in March. Shortlisted. Made all at Chepstow in March and form has been boosted; claims under a penalty.
3
2nd (3) (1/1 -25%) King Of The Lake
1
1/1(-25%)
(3) King Of The Lake 1/1, Promising sort who posted fairly-useful form when second of 11 in novice hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, good to soft) on NH debut 51 days ago. Likely more to come and is the one to beat. Promising second on career debut at Wincanton; leading player.
12
3rd (12) (150/1 -275%) Mairis Icon
150
150/1(-275%)
(12) Mairis Icon 150/1, No show in a couple of bumpers but offered more when fifth of 12 in novice (150/1) at Exeter (16.7f, good to soft) on hurdles bow 26 days ago, best work finish. Will likely be seen in better light when upped in trip/sent handicapping. Tailed off in bumpers; better when fifth on hurdle debut but still limited appeal.
6
4th (6) (300/1 -50%) Zufal
300
300/1(-50%)
(6) Zufal 300/1, Showed little on yard/hurdles debut at this course last month. Tailed off in an Irish point and on hurdle debut last month.
1
5th (1) (2.25/1 +18%) Astronomic View
2.25
2.25/1(+18%)
(1) Astronomic View 2.25/1, Fairly-useful bumper winner who offered plenty to work on when third of 6 on 2m Ffos Las hurdle debut in November. Not taken lightly. Leading contender on form; back from six months off and best on soft ground.
5
6th (5) (80/1 +20%) Shot Tower
80
80/1(+20%)
(5) Shot Tower 80/1, Out of a dual bumper winner but yet to threaten in a couple of outings over hurdles. Placed on hurdle debut but tailed off since; others much more likely.
8
7th (8) (4/1 +53%) Tidal Storm
4
4/1(+53%)
(8) Tidal Storm 4/1, Fair handicapper on Flat who made an encouraging start over timber when third of 14 at Taunton (16.5f) in December. Below that form the last twice but switched to new yard since and worth monitoring in the market. Third on hurdle debut but tailed off next time; still of interest on first start for yard.
7
8th (7) (50/1 -100%) Marley Head
50
50/1(-100%)
(7) Marley Head 50/1, Fair maiden on the Flat but hasn't shown much in a couple of attempts in this sphere. Placed on the Flat but beaten long way when completing over hurdles last month.
10
9th (10) (250/1 -150%) Maskara
250
250/1(-150%)
(10) Maskara 250/1, Well beaten on sole bumper outing last year and shaped as if better for run when tenth of 13 in novice at Chepstow (19.4f, good) on hurdles bow 19 days ago. Likely to need more time. Well beaten in both starts, including on recent hurdle debut.
2
10th (2) (100/1 +0%) Bohemian Lad
100
100/1(+0%)
(2) Bohemian Lad 100/1, Well held on sole bumper outing and been a similar story in both hurdle starts. Likely a longer-term project. Well beaten in all three career starts.
9
11th (9) (250/1 -25%) Dark Moon
250
250/1(-25%)
(9) Dark Moon 250/1, Well held in bumpers 12 weeks apart and fared no better on hurdles debut last month. Tailed off in two bumpers and one over hurdles.
11
|PU| (11) (40/1 -82%) La Bretesche
40
40/1(-82%)
(11) La Bretesche 40/1, Modest performer in France and not seen since eighth of 10 in juvenile hurdle (12/1) at Dieppe (16.9f, soft) 8 months ago. Likely best watched on yard debut. Had wind operation. Placed on the Flat and over hurdles in France; British debut after nine months off.
LTO Selection:
14:35 Newton Abbot Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Although KING OF THE LAKE was no match for Brentford Hope, the five-year-old pulled 17 lengths clear of the third when showing promising signs at Wincanton on debut in March. The winner subsequently franked that form and the Jeremy Scott-trained gelding can shed the maiden tag at the second time of asking. Oakley Dancer got off the mark at Chepstow last time out and rates the most immediate danger, while Astronomic View completes the shortlist.
KING OF THE LAKE pulled clear of the remainder when runner-up on hurdles bow at Wincanton last month and looks sure to progress. He can open his account. Astronomic View and Oakley Dancer look the likeliest dangers.
After a promising debut when second at Wincanton, KING OF THE LAKE can go one better.
(10) Bellamy's Grey 40/1, Just the one victory to his name under Rules and finished well held again back over hurdles at Exeter last month. Hard to recommend back chasing here. Tends to find himself too far back and not in great form lately; tongue-strap fitted.
4
1st (4) (40/1 -150%) Shortcross Storm
40
40/1(-150%)
(4) Shortcross Storm 40/1, Jumping issues stalled what looked to be a promising chase career and finished well held on return from 6-month absence at Warwick (16.3f) recently. Tries longer trip now. Well beaten on recent return from break/wind op; takes marked step up in trip.
2
2nd (2) (5.5/1 -38%) Lady Wilberry
5.5
5.5/1(-38%)
(2) Lady Wilberry 5.5/1, Improved on chase debut form when very good second of 7 in handicap at Taunton (21.7f, soft) 20 days ago. Can race off same mark and warrants respect. Consistent but yet to win; may have to settle for minor honours again.
5
3rd (5) (8/1 +20%) Wind Tor
8
8/1(+20%)
(5) Wind Tor 8/1, Run creditably in defeat in recent outings, latest when fourth of 14 in handicap chase at Chepstow (26.2f, good) 19 days ago. Likely to be in the mix again but others preferred for win purposes. Thorough stayer; has run well in recent starts but tends to show her best at Exeter.
8
4th (8) (8/1 -23%) Entre Deux
8
8/1(-23%)
(8) Entre Deux 8/1, Fared better than of late when close fourth of 15 in handicap chase at Warwick (24f, good) 20 days ago. Remains well treated and will be dangerous if building on that. Often disappoints but very close fourth at Warwick latest; repeat brings into reckoning.
3
5th (3) (1.1/1 +41%) Doctor Foley
1.1
1.1/1(+41%)
(3) Doctor Foley 1.1/1, Placed on second of 2 starts in Irish points and has proved a different proposition since going chasing, landing handicaps at Bangor (24f) and Fontwell (26f) in recent weeks. 7 lb penalty may not be enough to prevent the hat-trick. 2-2 over fences; 7lb penalty for last week's Fontwell win; strong claims again.
1
6th (1) (16/1 -45%) Paseo
16
16/1(-45%)
(1) Paseo 16/1, Back with a bang when making all on return at Ludlow (23.8f, soft) in November but largely disappointed since and has something to prove at present. Ludlow winner last November but only one good effort in four starts since.
6
|F| (6) (6.5/1 +24%) West Orchard
6.5
6.5/1(+24%)
(6) West Orchard 6.5/1, Fared better than of late when fourth in Plumpton handicap hurdle (20.5f, soft) last month but isn't the most straightforward (ran out earlier this year) and comes with risks attached on chase debut. Has ability but has proved untrustworthy over hurdles; chasing debut/first start at trip.
7
|PU| (7) (16/1 -14%) Mountain Grey
16
16/1(-14%)
(7) Mountain Grey 16/1, Only minor promise, but he did travel comfortably before fading when seventh of 10 on 17.5f Exeter chase/handicap debut last month. Remains to be seen if this much longer trip will suit. Unplaced all starts, the latest on chasing debut last month; markedly up in trip.
9
|PU| (9) (33/1 -136%) Baily Gorse
33
33/1(-136%)
(9) Baily Gorse 33/1, Long-standing maiden who ran best race for some time when runner-up over 3m at Exeter in April of last year but hasn't threatened in 3 starts since, including back from 10 months off latest. Makes limited appeal. Maiden after 24 starts; tailed off on return from an absence.
LTO Selection:
15:10 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
DOCTOR FOLEY arrives with an unblemished record over fences and the progressive six-year-old gets the vote to record a third successive victory. The Anthony Honeyball-trained gelding may repeat that feat with a 7lb penalty to contend with. Lady Wilberry filled the runner-up spot at Taunton last month and warrants consideration off an unchanged mark. Wind Tor was by no means disgraced when fourth at Chepstow on her latest outing and she can claim minor money.
DOCTOR FOLEY has made a fine start to his chasing career and it's likely we haven't seen the best of him yet. He can extend his winning run. Lady Wilberry and Entre Deux are feared most.
Although he had to work quite hard at Fontwell last week, DOCTOR FOLEY can still complete the hat-trick.
(3) Our Bill's Aunt 10/1, Consistent sort who posted a good second of 7 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (23.6f) 32 days ago. Much respected on her chase debut. Consistent over hurdles; chasing debut and claims if taking to it.
6
1st (6) (6/1 +29%) Petticoat Lucy
6
6/1(+29%)
(6) Petticoat Lucy 6/1, Fair hurdler who posted a respectable third in 2m Wincanton handicap in April. Claims if taking to fences at the first time of asking. Chasing debut; has been running reasonably over hurdles; others more likely.
4
2nd (4) (8.5/1 +6%) Across The Line
8.5
8.5/1(+6%)
(4) Across The Line 8.5/1, Fair hurdler/chaser who comes here on the back of a good second of 8 in handicap chase at Warwick (20f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Back to form when second at Warwick this month and can figure strongly if building on it.
5
3rd (5) (3.5/1 +0%) Begin The Luck
3.5
3.5/1(+0%)
(5) Begin The Luck 3.5/1, Has taken really well to chasing and arrives on a hat-trick after recent wins over C&D and at Exeter. Well on top at the finish on latter occasion so holds leading claims despite another 7 lb rise. On a hat-trick after C&D win and better display at Exeter; obvious credentials.
2
4th (2) (3.2/1 +9%) Imperial Joe
3.2
3.2/1(+9%)
(2) Imperial Joe 3.2/1, C&D winner who arrives in good nick, second of 4 in handicap chase at Taunton (23f, soft) 20 days ago. Can make his presence felt once more off an unchanged mark. Progressive and good effort when second off this mark latest; decent shout again.
1
5th (1) (2/1 +11%) Investment Manager
2
2/1(+11%)
(1) Investment Manager 2/1, Fair winner over hurdles who gained his breakthrough success in this sphere in 9-runner handicap chase at Exeter (19.2f, heavy) 36 days ago. Up 8 lb but still needs considering. Easy winner at Exeter last month and 8lb rise may not stop him following up.
8
|U| (8) (20/1 -11%) Scrumpy Boy
20
20/1(-11%)
(8) Scrumpy Boy 20/1, Cheekpieces on when finally getting off the mark over C&D last April. Off 12 months before coming in a remote fifth at Taunton 20 days ago so lots more is required. Well beaten on return from an absence but easy C&D winner 13 months ago.
7
|PU| (7) (33/1 +0%) Galante De Romay
33
33/1(+0%)
(7) Galante De Romay 33/1, Maiden hurdler but she went backwards from her chasing bow at Ffos Las when pulled up at Uttoxeter 11 days ago. Tongue strap goes on now with a bit to prove. Pulled up recently and tongue-strap now fitted; more to prove than many.
LTO Selection:
15:45 Newton Abbot Handicap Chase (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
INVESTMENT MANAGER got off the mark over fences in impressive fashion when strolling to victory at Exeter last month and although raised 8lb for that victory, the seven-year-old is hard to oppose on a track he recorded his only success at over hurdles. The biggest threat may come from Across The Line, who shaped well when second at Warwick just over a fortnight ago and is respected off the same mark. The consistent mare Our Bill's Aunt is another who can't be discounted.
BEGIN THE LUCK hasn't looked back since sent over fences and a 7 lb rise for his emphatic Exeter success doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from completing a quick hat-trick. Exeter-scorer Investment Manager is rated next best ahead of C&D winner Imperial Joe and chasing-newcomer Our Bill's Aunt.
A competitive contest can go to the progressive IMPERIAL JOE.
(5) Caitlin's Court 25/1, Sister to 4 winners and finished runner-up on final outing between the flags but yet to make an impact in 4 outings over hurdles. Has ability but absent since being pulled up on handicap debut last December.
1
2nd (1) (2.25/1 +0%) Phoenix Risen
2.25
2.25/1(+0%)
(1) Phoenix Risen 2.25/1, Has got his act together since the cheekpieces went on, scoring twice at Taunton (both 16.5f) last month. 4 lb rise for latest success looks fair and he must be taken seriously. Two Taunton wins last month and strong claims off 4lb higher than for the second.
4
2nd (4) (6.5/1 +46%) Robinsville
6.5
6.5/1(+46%)
(4) Robinsville 6.5/1, Yet to trouble the judge in 4 starts over timber, latest when 23¾ lengths seventh of 14 to Phoenix Risen in handicap at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft, 9/2) 34 days ago. Improvement required. Disappointing handicap debut behind Phoenix Risen but may leave that behind.
12
4th (12) (125/1 -279%) Double Or Quits
125
125/1(-279%)
(12) Double Or Quits 125/1, Has shown little in a bumper and 3 starts over hurdles, failing to beat a rival home in Exeter novice latest. Can only be watched from so far out of the weights on handicap debut. Yet to beat a rival over hurdles; handicap debut and 17lb out of weights.
8
|B| (8) (5/1 +50%) Per Vino Veritas
5
5/1(+50%)
(8) Per Vino Veritas 5/1, Posted respectable fourth at Taunton (19f, soft, 16/1) latest but has had plenty of opportunities and makes limited appeal. Often runs reasonably but 0-13 in career.
6
|F| (6) (3.33/1 +33%) Clongowes
3.33
3.33/1(+33%)
(6) Clongowes 3.33/1, Faced a stiff task latest but had run up to best form when second in Plumpton handicap (17.8f) previously and can't be ruled out. Has run well several times over hurdles but 0-15 and others more persuasive.
9
|PU| (9) (4.5/1 +47%) Chantilly Haze
4.5
4.5/1(+47%)
(9) Chantilly Haze 4.5/1, Remains a maiden after 23 NH runs but acquitted herself well when second of 12 in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, good to soft, 7/2) last month and is fairly treated back handicapping, despite being 2 lb out of the weights. Second in two of her latest three starts but 0-23 in career; vulnerable again.
10
|PU| (10) (16/1 +76%) Daany
16
16/1(+76%)
(10) Daany 16/1, Modest 1m winner on Flat but little to get excited about over hurdles and is 6 lb out of the handicap here. Hard to fancy. Unplaced in all six hurdle starts and of limited interest.
11
|PU| (11) (22/1 +78%) Freddie Fleetfoot
22
22/1(+78%)
(11) Freddie Fleetfoot 22/1, Yet to trouble the judge in 7 attempts over timber and faces a stiff task from 10 lb out of the handicap. Unplaced all starts and 10lb out of the handicap.
LTO Selection:
16:20 Newton Abbot Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
PHOENIX RISEN gets the vote here having won his last two races on the spin at Taunton in cosy style. He is 4lb higher after his latest success, but with David Pritchard retaining the partnership, his 5lb claim looks very valuable indeed. If repeating his penultimate start when runner-up at Plumpton, Clongowes must enter calculations, along with Chantilly Haze, who was a respectable second at Exeter last month.
DANTON is still low mileage and will appreciate this stiffer test of stamina on handicap debut. He can open his account. Phoenix Risen arrives at the top of his game and is much respected, whilst Chantilly Haze also enters calculations.
Much improved in cheekpieces, PHOENIX RISEN (nap) can complete the hat-trick.
(8) Young Buck 0.83/1, Useful winning hurdler who left previous chasing efforts behind when third in a handicap at Chepstow last time. Should find this easier and is worth taking a chance on. Tailed off first three chases but better when third last month; repeat gives major claims.
6
2nd (6) (7.5/1 -88%) Moratorium
7.5
7.5/1(-88%)
(6) Moratorium 7.5/1, Failed to take to chasing for Gordon Elliott but fairly useful form in hunters for this yard and has done well in points. Step back in right direction when third at Cheltenham last time and can't be ruled out with blinkers refitted. 5-8 in points and leading claims on pick of hunter chase form; below best last twice.
1
3rd (1) (14/1 -115%) Bbold
14
14/1(-115%)
(1) Bbold 14/1, Scored at Southwell (25.8f) in May and ran up to his best when third at Warwick in September. After 10 weeks off, shaped as if needing run on first outing since leaving Dr Richard Newland when pulled up on Boxing Day. This run should reveal more. Bit to prove but would be a real threat if ground dried to good or quicker.
2
4th (2) (8/1 +27%) Wotzizname
8
8/1(+27%)
(2) Wotzizname 8/1, Useful hurdler/chaser at his peak but has disappointed this year. Others make more appeal. Won this last year when beating only rival; back to form with point win latest.
4
5th (4) (3.33/1 -11%) Crypto
3.33
3.33/1(-11%)
(4) Crypto 3.33/1, Bumper winner who is lightly raced over fences and returned to form when third in a hunter at Carlisle a couple of months ago. Solid form claims but he's not the most straightforward. Close third on hunter chase debut after year off; leading contender, prefers soft.
5
|PU| (5) (14/1 -40%) Minimalistic
14
14/1(-40%)
(5) Minimalistic 14/1, Good strike rate in points, but previous efforts under Rules haven't been overly inspiring. Unseated at Exeter last time and has something to prove. Good record in points but mostly in uncompetitive races, as were last month's two wins.
3
|PU| (3) (25/1 -56%) Broadclyst
25
25/1(-56%)
(3) Broadclyst 25/1, Temperamental sort. 12/1, first run since leaving Chris Down when below-par fourth of 7 in hunter chase at Exeter (24.2f, soft) 14 months ago. Since won in points so he can't be discounted. Multiple point winner but pulled up latest and 0-16 in chases.
7
|PU| (7) (66/1 -230%) Ofalltheginjoints
66
66/1(-230%)
(7) Ofalltheginjoints 66/1, Formerly useful chaser who has also won in points but hard to fancy based on his Rules form last season. Once useful but now looks a shadow of former self.
LTO Selection:
16:55 Newton Abbot Hunter Chase (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
CRYPTO appears to have been freshened up since finishing third at Carlisle in March and any ease in underfoot conditions will only enhance his claims. Paul Nicholls is no stranger to success in this sphere and Young Buck must be taken seriously on his first start in this grade. Minimalistic has been in fine form in the pointing field recently and can go well granted a clean round of jumping.
YOUNG BUCK produced comfortably his best effort to date over fences when third in handicap company at Chepstow last time and, if he can build on that he should be able to get the better of Crypto. Moratorium wasn't disgraced at Cheltenham, so he's another one to consider.
(7) Edmond 3/1, Nathaniel filly who has shown ability on each of her three starts to date but will likely need to find improvement if she's to open her account. Headgear goes on. Has shown ability in three races; gives the impression she'll improve for the headgear.
8
2nd (8) (4/1 -78%) Manala
4
4/1(-78%)
(8) Manala 4/1, €45,000 3-y-o, Walzertakt filly. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2¾m) Harapour. Very interesting newcomer. 45,000euros 3yo; dam half-sister to two bumper winners; Henderson newcomer; respected.
5
3rd (5) (1.62/1 +46%) Our Nel
1.62
1.62/1(+46%)
(5) Our Nel 1.62/1, Promising Rules debut when fourth in an 18-runner Warwick bumper in November. Disappointed at Ascot since but has been given another break and is an obvious player if she can bounce back. Penultimate effort (fourth in big field at Warwick) gives her a fighting chance.
4
4th (4) (16/1 -60%) Madame Pompadour
16
16/1(-60%)
(4) Madame Pompadour 16/1, Pour Moi mare. Half-sister to 3 winners, including smart hurdler/top-class chaser Santini and bumper winner/useful hurdler Dusky Legend, stayed 2½m. Unplaced both starts in point bumpers (latest Mar 18). Both starts in point bumpers, better effort when third latest; one to consider.
6
5th (6) (125/1 -89%) Prelinsia
125
125/1(-89%)
(6) Prelinsia 125/1, Related to winners but big price and showed nothing at Chepstow 6 months ago. Hard to fancy. Absent since her inauspicious debut at Chepstow in October.
1
6th (1) (9/1 +36%) Aprille Mai
9
9/1(+36%)
(1) Aprille Mai 9/1, Scorpion mare. Half-sister to bumper winner/modest hurdler Little Else. Dam (c112/h118) 2m-2¾m hurdle/chase winner. Makes some appeal on paper. Half-sister to a bumper/hurdle winner for this trainer, who also runs Dunalong here.
2
7th (2) (50/1 +0%) Dora's Addrezz
50
50/1(+0%)
(2) Dora's Addrezz 50/1, £1,400 3-y-o, Schiaparelli mare. Dam ran once in bumper. Wears tongue strap. Others make more appeal. £1,400 3yo; wears tongue-tie on debut; stable has modest strike-rate in bumpers.
9
8th (9) (100/1 -203%) Pearl Beauty

(3) Dunalong 6.5/1, Dunaden mare. Half-sister to 3 winners, including very smart hurdler/high-class chaser Dashel Drasher, stays 25f, and fair hurdler Popping Along. Very much one to note for all she's bred to be a stayer. Half-sister to three winners for this yard, notably high-class Dashel Drasher; interesting.
LTO Selection:
17:30 Newton Abbot NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
OUR NEL found a bumper at Ascot in February a bit too much at this early stage of her career, but she holds leading claims judged on her fourth-placed finish at Warwick in November and gets a tentative vote. Edmond arrives in fair form having finished in the frame at Chepstow in March and is another to consider, while Manala makes most appeal of the newcomers, with any market support worth noting.
DUNALONG is a half-sister to Dashel Drasher and, although she'll be suited by longer trips in time, it might be worth chancing that she has enough ability to make a successful start. Manala is another notable newcomer and Our Nel is the pick of those with experience.
The shortlist comprises the interesting newcomers MANALA, Dunalong and Aprille Mai in that order of preference.

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.
