13:50 Perth Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

AN MHI was an easy seven-length victor when sporting a first-time tongue tie last time at Ballinrobe after a break. The six-year-old sets a decent standard for this level with a rating of 127, so he is strongly fancied to defy his 7lb penalty. The main threat might be last-time-out winner Fiveonefive, who shed his maiden tag in handicap company at Tipperary last time and he could have a say. Gorthill is interesting as he makes his first start over hurdles.

AN MHI impressively opened his account at Ballinrobe last month and Gordon Elliott's 6-y-o looks the way to go despite having to shoulder a 7 lb penalty. Fiveonefive rates much the biggest threat on the back of his Tipperary breakthrough success, with Izzy Bell rating the pick of the remainder for minor honours.

Fiveonefive is respected but preference is for AN MHI, who barely came off the bridle when beating a fair runner-up at Ballinrobe.

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

KILBRAINY finished runner-up by two and a half lengths last time at Hexham when he took a step back in distance, and that form reads well as the fourth went in next time. The son of Beat Hollow goes off only a 2lb higher rating and is fancied to be hard to beat. One to consider is Just Dottie, who easily accounted for his rivals over C&D last month when scoring by over four lengths and he can go well off 6lb higher. Russian Virtue is also of interest.

KILBRAINY bounced right back to his best when runner-up at Hexham 3 weeks ago and a repeat of that display may well see him register his first success. Russian Virtue and Just Dottie head the opposition.

It might be worth chancing dual course winner MALANGAN, who ran quite well last month, after a break, and is on a very good mark now.

15:00 Perth Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Victory Echo is in fine form as he has recorded a quick-fire double in the last month and the 10-year-old could continue his upward curve to be a big player. However, preference is for the Gordon Elliot-trained WALKING THE WALK, who switches back to this sphere after filling the runner-up spot over hurdles at Down Royal last time and he can go one better on this occasion. The Ferry Master struck in this grade last time and has to be considered.

WALKING THE WALK has been holding his form well in Ireland and should make another bold bid given his stable's excellent record at this track. The thriving Victory Echo is an obvious threat, while The Ferry Master remains well treated if building on his recent win at Kelso.

Still well handicapped after a 2lb rise for his recent Kelso win, THE FERRY MASTER (nap) can better that performance over today's trip.

15:35 Perth Handicap Chase (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow

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

HAPPY D'EX justified favouritism when winning on her last raid here over hurdles in September and Gordon Elliott's mare looks to be on a fair mark on this handicap bow over fences. Cedar Hill is only 1lb higher than his runner-up effort at Kelso last month and the nine-year-old is feared most, ahead of Hidden Commander, who returned to form when second at that same venue last time too.

CEDAR HILL arrives on the back of a good effort at Kelso and is narrowly preferred to Happy d'Ex who switches to handicaps for the first time over fences. Golden Taipan goes well here and also merits consideration.

Provided the ground does not go softer than good, GOLDEN TAIPAN should have every chance of repeating last year's win in this race.

LANDOFSMILES looked better than ever when romping home by 10 lengths on his return from a 486-day absence at Uttoxeter last month and the veteran looks capable of shrugging off an 8lb rise if running to a similar level here. Ballykeel looks the pick of Gordon Elliott's pair and he can't be dismissed if none the worse for his fall at Killarney in May. Caribean Boy is capable if on a going day and completes the shortlist.

LANDOFSMILES has won on both of his previous visits to Perth and proved better than ever to score at Uttoxeter last time, so, provided that he doesn't "bounce" on his second run after a lengthy absence, he sets a good standard in this contest. Ballykeel is a leading player on the pick of his recent efforts, whilst Scipion is still fairly low-mileage over fences and is worth a market check on his stable debut.

If able to replicate the form of his Punchestown festival second in April, BALLYKEEL will be hard to beat here.

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

With all bar one of PAMMI's hurdles wins coming at this venue, the latest from 4lb lower, it might be worth siding with Jim Goldie's course lover. This current mark isn't beyond her judged on past exploits, and she should be cherry-ripe following her recent spins on the Flat. The unexposed Boomslang merits the utmost respect, while Lockdown Leader would hold every chance if able to replicate his recent C&D second.

BOOMSLANG has returned an improved model following a short break, likely to have finished second with a clear run when third in a Cartmel maiden 15 days ago, and he can get off the mark returned to handicap company again partnered by Brian Hughes. Pammi, who goes really well around here, is also worthy of respect, along with Starlyte.

Topweight BOOMSLANG returns to handicap company after a good third in a Cartmel maiden last month and is open to further progress.

FAUX FUR shaped with promise when filling the frame at Ballinrobe on her racecourse debut and the Wings Of Eagles filly wouldn't need to improve much further to get off the mark. Breizh River belied long odds when finishing a good second at Kelso last month and is likely to provide the main challenge. Cracking Rhapsody can chase them home ahead of Solway Staree.

FAUX FUR made a positive start in a stronger race than this at Ballinrobe 13 days ago and she's the obvious choice ahead of Breizh River in a race that the pair should dominate.

This might go to BREIZH RIVER, who travelled strongly for a long way and posted a much-improved performance when second at Kelso.

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.
