14:05 Nottingham Maiden (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Mashadi sets the form standard, especially with his neck second at Bath in May, but he has found one too good on all four starts now and was turned over at odds of 2/9 when last seen in June. He may have to play second fiddle again, this time to JUNGLE JIM, who stepped up on his Chester debut when a promising second (Irish Nectar fourth) at Thirsk last month and the booking of William Buick suggests there could be more to come from the David Evans-trained gelding. Sea Of Angels showed signs of ability first time out at Lingfield and should have more to offer now.

JUNGLE JIM shaped with plenty of promise when runner-up in a reasonable maiden at Thirsk last month and, having been gelded since, further progress looks forthcoming. With Buick taking over, he's marginally preferred to Mashadi, who sets the clear standard but has had 4 goes and has moved yards since failing to land the odds at Brighton. Of the others, Starring Role could be a different proposition this time.

While an absence of more than three months is not ideal, MASHADI has the form to win this on his debut for a new yard.

14:40 Nottingham Maiden (Class 4) 8f Race Class Flow

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

The form of TIMES EDITION's debut third over 7f at Salisbury has been boosted by second subsequently landing a conditions race and the manner in which Roger Varian's charge stayed on that day suggests she will relish this extra furlong. Where I Wanna Be was no match for a potentially useful stablemate when fourth over 1m at Kempton recently, but caught the eye doing good work late on once the penny dropped and Ralph Beckket's inmate must be feared on her turf bow. Zainabb wasn't beaten far at Beverley earlier this month and completes the shortlist.

TIMES EDITION ran a hugely encouraging race on her debut at Salisbury, looking better as it wore on, and she seems sure to go close with improvement expected up in trip here. There is also plenty more to come from Where I Wanna Be and she's feared, while Lisbon Heat is an interesting newcomer.

Although a well-held third at Salisbury, TIMES EDITION chased home likely Group-class fillies who had the benefit of experience.

15:15 Nottingham Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

KNICKS confirmed the promise of his Ayr second in July when an unlucky loser over this trip at Carlisle last time, as he flashed home after traffic problems to be beaten just half a length at the line, and Karl Burke's colt is taken reserve the form with reopposing stablemate Biloxi Boy. The latter was just ahead in second that day but had the run of the race out in front and is 1lb worse off with the selection this time. Tierney has remained in good heart since his Haydock success off 7lb lower in July and warrants respect, along with Eminny.

KNICKS left the impression he was a little unlucky not to win when third at Carlisle 13 days ago and is well worth another chance to gain compensation under similar conditions. Eminny found some improvement on her most recent outing at Sandown and must enter calculations, along with Charlie Mason, who's took his form up a notch since being fitted with a visor.

Biloxi Boy has twice finished ahead of KNICKS but was lucky to do so last time. The latter should have won at Carlisle.

15:50 Nottingham Handicap (Class 2) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

PINAFORE is still of low mileage and may be up to defying the 3lb rise in the handicap incurred after finishing a respectable sixth in a heritage handicap at York last month. That piece of form has a solid feel and, with the return to six furlongs an added bonus, a repeat of last month's C&D success under Tom Marquand is a distinct possibility. Runner-up in that race, Northern Spirit is noted with an 8lb pull this time, while Fantasy Master and Spirit Of Applause complete the shortlist.

Having been an easy winner over C&D last month, PINAFORE was unable to reproduce that effort dropped to the minimum trip at York 8 days later, but she's been freshened up for this and looks sure to go close back up in distance. The main danger may emerge from Billyjoh, who shaped encouragingly taking on his elders for the first time and is still not quite the finished article. Northern Spirit and Havana Rum can do battle for third spot.

Pinafore has to prove she wants it slow but there are no such concerns for NORTHERN SPIRIT who can gain his fourth win of the year.

16:25 Nottingham Handicap (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

A gutsy winner at Newmarket last month, Olympicus has scope to improve over this trip and his willing attitude is an asset as he bids to defy a 3lb higher mark. However, previous C&D winner WARREN HILL can put her course knowledge to good use and appeals more on the forecast going. Cut in the ground should suit this daughter of No Nay Never and she can flourish back over this distance after her stamina hit the buffers over an extended 1m3f last time. Hakuna Babe and Gordon Grey are others to note.

Having taken a while to come to hand for his current stable, OLYMPICUS put it all together when beating Hakuna Babe at Newmarket last time and, with an excellent pedigree to fall back on, he's taken to improve further and follow up at the possible expense of the same rival. Golden Maverick is another one to consider.

Ed Dunlop's DAMASCUS STEEL (nap) is one who will handle conditions and his assured stamina could also come in handy.

17:00 Nottingham Handicap (Class 2) 14f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Hellenista has finished in the first four home on her last six starts, but her best form is on a faster surface. Double Oban was beaten less than two lengths at Haydock off this mark and can go well with his stable in good form, but ALHAMBRA PALACE is preferred. He failed to handle the track or the faster going at York but is back on a more suitable surface here having won at Ascot and Sandown on going with cut in it, and that may see him back to winning ways.

Perhaps best to narrow this down to the 3-y-os, with ALHAMBRA PALACE, who was a fine fifth in the strong Melrose handicap at York's Ebor meeting last month, narrowly preferred to Ralph Beckett's Roost. Alpine Stroll's good Nottingham record, including reaching a place in this 12 months ago, earns him a place on the shortlist, while Cool Henry can shrug off a rare below-par run last time and also play a part.

The eyes are drawn to ALHAMBRA PALACE who can get his season back on track after an excusable defeat on fast ground.

17:35 Nottingham Handicap (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Young Fire might get his ground which could see him get involved where it matters most after finishing fifth at Wolverhampton, and he could surprise a few under David Nolan. Cariad is another who could go well off bottom weight and will also appreciate any cut in the ground, but a chance is taken on C&D winner EQUION. He was value for more than the official neck last time out here on heavy ground after possibly idling in front.

In a wide-open contest the vote goes to STRONGBOWE, who is effective on slow ground and wasn't seen to best effect at Southwell last time. Equion and Goldsmith head the list of dangers.

A few with chances but EQUION has proved himself on the track and may have more to come under the conditions.

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.
