14:10 Nottingham Stakes (Class 5) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the summary, the Blue Point filly 1.63/1 (4) SNAFIYA and the Expert Eye filly 2.25/1 (5) TREASURE STORM seem to be the most promising newcomers, with 1.63/1 (4) SNAFIYA having a half-sister who was a 2-year-old winner and 2.25/1 (5) TREASURE STORM offering potential for improvement after her debut fourth. 3/1 (1) DEFYING ORDERS also has good breeding and could be one to watch on debut, while 9/1 (2) EXPONISTA and 10/1 (3) MADEMOISELLECANCAN have less impressive records so far.

TREASURE STORM showed some promise when filling fourth place on her debut at Musselburgh last month and that experience could prove to be vital here. Snafiya is a half-sister to the useful juvenile Apricot Twist and the 80,000gns purchase has to be of interest on debut. All of the remainder make some appeal but Defying Orders is arguably the pick of them.

The market should prove useful with 4 of the 5 making their debuts but without the benefit of those clues it could be worth siding with SNAFIYA. She makes plenty of appeal for a yard adept at readying a newcomer and the booking of William Buick rates an obvious positive. Treasure Storm, the sole runner with experience, heads the dangers.

Preference is for the newcomer DEFYING ORDERS, whose trainer Archie Watson has made an excellent start with his 2yos.

14:40 Nottingham Stakes (Class 5) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty, but Massaat colt and 4.5/1 (1) MASO BASTIE seem to have a good chance based on their past performances and potential for improvement. 5/1 (2) CITY CYCLONE and 7/1 (4) ARTISAND are also considered as contenders. 25/1 (6) THAWG is a newcomer worth keeping an eye on.

Maso Bastie got off the mark over a mile at Lingfield in December and he has to be respected, although the son of Churchill may struggle to give 9lb to TEMPERED SOUL. George Boughey's colt caught the eye on his debut at Kempton in March and is fully entitled to improve significantly for that outing. Others to note are Artisand and City Cyclone.

MASO BASTIE looked a good prospect when overcoming inexperience to score at Lingfield in December and James Fanshawe's son of Churchill appeals as the sort to go on improving so gets the nod at the chief expense of Artisand, who wasn't seen to best effect when fifth at Lingfield on his return. City Cyclone and Tempered Soul can both have a say too in an open contest.

A chance is taken on GOING TO THE MOON, who showed promise here on his debut and reappears having been gelded.

15:10 Nottingham Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based solely on this summary as each horse has its own potential and past performance. However, some horses to consider based on their recent performances and potential include 5.5/1 (11) CREME CHANTILLY, 6.5/1 (12) FLAME OF KODIAC, 7/1 (7) ZARGA, 12/1 (5) NUTHATCH, and 14/1 (1) DOUBLE O. These horses have either won recently or have shown promise in their past performances. It is important to also consider other factors such as the weather and track conditions and the jockey's performance.

In a wide-open event marginal preference is for MEXICALI ROSE, who put in a career-best performance at Leicester last month and an opening mark of 75 may underestimate her ability. Flame Of Kodiac made a winning handicap debut in March and she cannot be discounted. The unexposed Creme Chantilly looks to have a bright future, while Zarga and Star Child also make the shortlist.

MEXICALI ROSE arrives fit from a good reappearance run at Leicester and gets the nod to make a successful handicap debut for Ralph Beckett. Creme Chantilly is another who could have more to offer now switching to handicap company and heads the dangers along with Flame of Kodiac and last-time-out C&D scorer Molly Valentine.

Chelmsford winner CREME CHANTILLY has potential off her opening mark judged on her attractive pedigree.

15:40 Nottingham Handicap (Class 3) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 1.5/1 (3) KINGMANIA and 3.5/1 (5) CANOODLED seem to be the most promising horses. 1.5/1 (3) KINGMANIA won on their last stable debut and has solid claims up 3lb, and looked as good as ever on debut for a new yard. 3.5/1 (5) CANOODLED had a career best when winning a 16-runner handicap in October and returns with conditions in her favour. However, 7/1 (6) GOLDEN MELODY could also be a player as she won in testing conditions over the same trip and posted a solid reappearance at Doncaster last month, despite a recent excusable effort. 8/1 (1) SLY MADAM also has potential as she bounced back to form when taking a handicap at Windsor last month. 14/1 (2) FARHH TO SHY seems to be the least promising based on recent form.

James Ferguson has his string in excellent form and KINGMANIA makes plenty of appeal following her stable debut success at Southwell. She benefited from the application of a hood and a 3lb rise may well underestimate her as she attempts to back that victory up. Belhaven is likely to step forward after finishing last at Redcar on her return from a break, while the drop back to a mile is in Sly Madam's favour after the mare pulled too hard when stepped up in trip under a 5lb penalty at Brighton.

KINGMANIA came from a unpromising position when scoring on stable debut at Southwell last month and looks leniently treated. She is fancied to follow up. Canoodled goes well on this sort of ground and is feared most.

A line can be put through the reappearance performance of BELHAVEN, and she is taken to add to the three wins she posted last year.

16:10 Nottingham Listed (Class 1) 10f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 1.63/1 (1) GOLDEN LYRA and 4/1 (3) CRYSTAL CAPRICE seem to be the strongest contenders, with 1.63/1 (1) GOLDEN LYRA having a penalty but holding leading form claims and 4/1 (3) CRYSTAL CAPRICE being a well-bred horse that the stable excels with. 7.5/1 (6) MISTY DANCER and 9/1 (10) SUNSET SHIRAZ also have each-way chances, while the other horses seem to have some weaknesses or need to improve significantly to compete at this level.

Softer conditions appeared to hold the key to GOLDEN LYRA's improvement when running out a comfortable winner of a Listed contest at Saint-Cloud in October, after a disappointing effort at York's Ebor meeting. The daughter of Lope De Vega has to give 3lb to her rivals but, with the ground very much in her favour, the four-year-old is capable of further improvement on just her sixth career outing. Crystal Caprice had excuses on her final outing when losing her action at Lingfield and she remains with a fair amount of potential, especially for stepping up in trip, while Mukaddamah and One For Bobby appear best of the remainder.

Sir Michael Stoute saddled the winner of this last year and CRYSTAL CAPRICE could be another for the yard. You can draw a line through her effort on the all-weather in October, prior to which she looked most progressive and hopes are high that she will kick on again this season now moving up in trip (untried beyond 1m but pedigree augurs well stamina-wise). Golden Lyra rates the main danger, while Sunset Shiraz, who looks the pick of the Irish raiders, is third choice ahead of Life of Dreams.

The lightly raced 4yo CRYSTAL CAPRICE is from a family Sir Michael Stoute has excelled with and she can make a winning return.

16:40 Nottingham Handicap (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict with complete certainty which horse will perform the best based on this summary, as each has their own strengths and weaknesses. However, 2/1 (3) MUTAANY Form of Brighton seems to have a solid record and potential for improvement after being gelded, making him a strong contender as a 3-y-o sprint handicapper to follow. 4.5/1 (2) WEN MOON also has potential for improvement after being gelded and recently winning a 6f Pontefract handicap in the mud. 12/1 (6) MAGGIE'S TERN has a promising jockey and a potential for a bold show after taking a break. 14/1 (1) THUNDERBEAR has a good track record on good ground and could be interesting if he can control the race. 4/1 (7) OPEN MARKET and 4/1 (5) FOX MASTER have had some success but may need to show improvement to compete against the other contenders. 22/1 (4) IBIZA LOVE is a wildcard as a new addition to the stable and may not be as appealing as the other horses.

This represents a drop in class for Wen Moon, who scored over this trip at Pontefract off 3lb lower on his most recent outing. He can have a big say in proceedings here, but FOX MASTER is entitled to improve following a fair fifth at Newcastle on his latest run in February. He is well related and could make his presence felt on his turf debut. Open Market was only narrowly denied at Yarmouth last month and should not be taken lightly, while Mutaany has been gelded for his reappearance and adds further spice to the race.

MUTAANY hails from a good Shadwell line and looks a 3-y-o sprinter to keep on side having won well at Brighton when last seen. He can make a successful return/handicap debut for a yard who have had plenty go well first time back in recent weeks. Open Market went close at Yarmouth and is respected off the same mark. Pontefract-winner Wen Moon is also considered.

Well-bred MUTAANY (nap) could be on a good mark even before factoring in the possibility of improvement on this first run since gelded.

17:10 Nottingham Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will perform well based solely on this summary, but 2/1 (5) SILKS GRAPHITE and 3/1 (1) GHOST LIGHTS both have promising recent form and potential for improvement. 4/1 (6) STARNIGHT also has some potential and may do well in her first outing on these shores. 7/1 (2) RIVER NAVER and 8.5/1 (4) INSOLENTE have less promising recent form and may struggle to perform well.

A fairly weak contest in which preference is for SILKS GRAPHITE. Runner-up over this trip at Yarmouth last month, the gelded son of Brazen Beau is fancied to break his duck at the sixth time of asking. Ghost Lights finished a fair fourth at Lingfield in March and is interesting on his turf debut, while River Naver completes the shortlist for powerful connections.

SILKS GRAPHITE took his form up a notch when runner-up at Yarmouth last month and with a fully-fledged rider back on board, Darryll Holland's charge is fancied to open his account. Ghost Lights is put forward as the main threat on turf debut for the in-form Charles Hills, with Irish-raider Starnight rounding off the shortlist.

At least SILKS GRAPHITE has shown he can handle soft ground and his latest Yarmouth run was his best yet. Ghost Lights is next best.

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.

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.
