1st (4) (0.36/1 +0%) Park Annonciade |
0.36/1(+0%) | (4) Park Annonciade 0.36/1, Went the wrong way in bumpers but made a promising hurdling debut when second in 11-runner maiden at Sligo (17.6f, good, 33/1) 49 days ago. collared close home. Should improve and has outstanding claims. Ran big race in defeat on hurdling debut in June and has big role to play here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (2/1 +20%) VE Day |
2/1(+20%) | (1) VE Day 2/1, Fair maiden on the level for Andrew Balding. Landed 4-runner juvenile hurdle at Musselburgh (2m, good to soft) on debut in this sphere in March. Has matched rather than bettered that form since. Yet to build upon his winning hurdle debut but still features prominently in calculations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (80/1 -60%) Solway Staree |
80/1(-60%) | (6) Solway Staree 80/1, Little show in 3 bumpers/novice hurdle. Well beaten when third of four over C&D on recent hurdle debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (20/1 +39%) Foxwood |
20/1(+39%) | (2) Foxwood 20/1, Found only one too good in a Catterick bumper on debut in February but little to shout about since, failing to take to hurdling so far. Hasn't shown much on his three hurdling attempts this season. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (50/1 +24%) One Of Us Is Lying |
50/1(+24%) | (3) One Of Us Is Lying 50/1, Unpromising in points and was well held in maiden hurdle at Downpatrick (18.8f, good) on Rules debut 44 days ago. Blinkered for 1st time. Beaten out of sight when 150-1 for hurdle debut in June; blinkers added today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (150/1 -436%) Gold Terms |
150/1(-436%) | (5) Gold Terms 150/1, Never a threat in maiden sole start on Flat for Grant Tuer. Makes hurdles debut after 20 months off and most likely best watched. Not seen since low-key Flat debut in November 2021. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
PARK ANNONCIADE shaped with promise over an extended 2m1f on his hurdling bow in June, where he weakened late on to fill the runner-up spot. Simon Crawford's charge ought to have learned plenty from that experience, though, and this looks a good opportunity to go one better down in trip. Ve Day appeals as his main danger, while market support for newcomer Gold Terms would be interesting.
PARK ANNONCIADE got his career firmly back on track sent hurdling when nabbed by a stronger stayer right at the death at Sligo in June and this is an excellent opportunity for him to go one better. Ve Day is the obvious one to follow him home.
VE Day ought to make a race of this but PARK ANNONCIADE is the one to beat, having run a big race in defeat on his hurdling debut.

1st (6) (1.75/1 +42%) Dripsey Moon |
1.75/1(+42%) | (6) Dripsey Moon 1.75/1, £50,000 buy after winning twice in the Irish pointing field. Interesting hurdle debutant. Bought for £50,000 after pair of Irish point wins in March/April; makes rules debut today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (1.62/1 +7%) Champ De Gane |
1.62/1(+7%) | (4) Champ De Gane 1.62/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler/chaser, finishing second over fences here last month. Sets the standard back hurdling. Second over fences here last month and has good chance at the weights back over hurdles. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (3.5/1 -27%) Bayonetta |
3.5/1(-27%) | (11) Bayonetta 3.5/1, Best effort when narrowly denied in Downpatrick maiden hurdle 19 days ago. Placed over C&D in the spring. Unlikely to be far away under Brian Hughes. Placed in similar C&D race in April and went close at Downpatrick last month; in the mix. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (12/1 +14%) Call Me Harry |
12/1(+14%) | (2) Call Me Harry 12/1, Dual bumper winner but disappointing in 3 outings over hurdles last season. Has subsequently undergone wind surgery and returns to action with his yard enjoying a good spell. Worth a precautionary betting check. Dual bumper winner; bled from the nose on all three hurdling starts last season; risky. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (12/1 +0%) Kopa Kilana |
12/1(+0%) | (8) Kopa Kilana 12/1, Bumper winner but yet to surpass modest form over hurdles. Creditable third in Hexham maiden last time but likely vulnerable for win purposes again. Placed on two of five stable starts but another minor role probably his best hope here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (40/1 -60%) Councillor K |
40/1(-60%) | (5) Councillor K 40/1, Placed on his completed starts in Irish points. Betting should help guide to expectations on hurdle debut. Placed in two Irish points at start of year; travelled from Northants to make rules debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (125/1 -150%) Our Zebo |
125/1(-150%) | (10) Our Zebo 125/1, Seemingly modest form when second of 3 in a novice hurdle at Ayr in March but it's not solid and he has offered no encouragement since. Has cheekpieces on for the first time. Tailed off in two Irish maiden hurdles in spring and pulled up at Cartmel in June. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (7) (100/1 -203%) Knocky |
100/1(-203%) | (7) Knocky 100/1, Dual point winner, including in March, but offered little on Down Royal hurdle debut last summer. Bayonetta is the more obvious of the yard's pair. 2-5 in points but latter win was a match race; struggled on hurdle debut; others stronger. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (66/1 -313%) Moneynabane |
66/1(-313%) | (9) Moneynabane 66/1, Offered more than previously when 15 lengths sixth of 14 at Downpatrick recently but more will be needed to play a prominent role here. Has blinkers and a tongue tie on for the first time. Last month's Downpatrick sixth was a good step in the right direction; more needed here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (1) (50/1 -25%) Ballyphilip |
50/1(-25%) | (1) Ballyphilip 50/1, Maiden pointer. Wears a tongue strap on Rules debut. Likely outsider. 0-6 in Irish points; not devoid of ability but probably best watched on rules debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (200/1 -203%) Carlo Storm |
200/1(-203%) | (3) Carlo Storm 200/1, Placed on completed start in points in 2021. 80/1, last of 14 in bumper at Wetherby (2m, heavy) in December (only start for John Wainwright). Can only be watched now hurdling for new yard. Struggled in a bumper for John Wainwright in December; with new stable for hurdle debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
CHAMP DE GANE has yet to open his account after 15 starts, but the Kapgarde gelding has been running well over the larger obstacles recently. He sets the standard on official ratings and he could be hard to pass if running to form. Having been narrowly denied at Downpatrick last month, Bayonetta ought to be on the premises, along with dual point-to-point winner Dripsey Moon.
Perhaps this can be the day that CHAMP DE GANE, who returns to hurdles after a spell chasing. finally gets off the mark. John McConnell point recruit Dripsey Moon could be a dangerous opponent if the betting speaks in his favour. Downpatrick runner-up Bayonetta should also be on the premises.
Dripsey Moon won his last two points but CHAMP DE GANE sets a pretty good standard of rules form and gets the vote.

1st (1) (0.83/1 +56%) Presentandcounting |
0.83/1(+56%) | (1) Presentandcounting 0.83/1, Scored at Ffos Las in June and backed it up with solid second of 5 in handicap chase at this course (23.8f, good) 38 days ago. Holds strong claims. Not at best when second here in June but remains on good chase mark; wants good ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3.33/1 -104%) Golden Taipan |
3.33/1(-104%) | (2) Golden Taipan 3.33/1, Won a couple of small-field handicaps (at up to 23.8f) last summer and returned to form when good second of 5 in handicap chase over C&D (good) 51 days ago. 2 lb rise fair and likely to go well again. Back in form with close second over C&D in June; can do better if ground stays good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (11/1 -10%) Samurai Cracker |
11/1(-10%) | (3) Samurai Cracker 11/1, Winning pointer but not seen under Rules since below-par fifth of 8 in hunter chase at Down Royal (24f, soft) in December. Work to do on return off current mark. Second in a point in April but needs to prove he can cope with current handicap mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (3.33/1 +5%) Hidden Commander |
3.33/1(+5%) | (4) Hidden Commander 3.33/1, Won 5 times over fences for this yard but been more miss than hit in recent starts. Back on last winning mark now but percentage call is to look elsewhere. Back on last winning mark but didn't fire last time and seems best on left-handed tracks. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Presentandcounting will be a threat to all if able to dominate from the front, but with Hidden Commander likely to press the pace it might be worth siding with GOLDEN TAIPAN. The largely consistent nine-year-old ought to get a good tow into the race and his recent C&D second would suggest he might be ready to record a fourth chase success.
GOLDEN TAIPAN returned to form here last time and is below his last winning mark. He can get back on the scoreboard. C&D winner Presentandcounting looks the obvious danger.
After looking stretched by a truly run 3m here last time, PRESENTANDCOUNTING can get back to winning ways over this shorter trip.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (3) (16/1 +20%) Czech Her Out |
16/1(+20%) | (3) Czech Her Out 16/1, Resumed from nearly 8 months off with 3m win at Southwell in April. Not in anything like the same form in her 2 outings since. Previously trained by Michael Scudamore. Surprise winner in April, after a break, but well beaten twice since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (3.33/1 +45%) Dinoland |
3.33/1(+45%) | (5) Dinoland 3.33/1, Cheekpieces on first time (retained), good second of 12 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (25f, good) 23 days ago. Stable's British runners always merit respect. 0-7 over hurdles but went close in first-time cheekpieces at Sligo last month; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (5.5/1 +45%) Malangen |
5.5/1(+45%) | (8) Malangen 5.5/1, Benefited from an enterprising ride when winning a 4-runner race over 2½m here last month. Has stamina to prove now stepping up to 3m and not an obvious one to follow up. Dominated small-field 2m4f event from the front here last month; this race is tougher. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (14/1 -75%) Anightinlambourn |
14/1(-75%) | (1) Anightinlambourn 14/1, Progressive over fences in the second half of 2022. Pulled up twice at Cheltenham in the spring but shaped as if back in form when seventh of 16 in Summer Cup at Uttoxeter last month. First-time cheekpieces he wore on that occasion are retained now reverting to hurdles. Has made very good progress over fences since her latest hurdle run; interesting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (5.5/1 -57%) Doune Castle |
5.5/1(-57%) | (6) Doune Castle 5.5/1, Fair on his day, resuming winning ways over C&D in June, proving suited by the step back up in trip. An 8 lb rise looks manageable. Clearcut C&D winner when back up in trip in June; 8lb higher now but still considered. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (1.5/1 +25%) Basford |
1.5/1(+25%) | (4) Basford 1.5/1, Bumper winner who has scored 4 times over hurdles this summer, producing a dominant display in handicap company at Southwell (3m) last week. That was a thin race but he should still have a big say under a 7 penalty. Three wins this season, the latest by 39l last week; strong claims under 7lb penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (12/1 -33%) Pammi |
12/1(-33%) | (7) Pammi 12/1, Standing dish around here (5-time C&D winner). Doesn't obviously arrive in form (well held on Flat recently) but she is back on a winning mark. Five-time winner over C&D but has a bit to prove at present. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Basford is respected given he arrives on the back of winning three of his last four starts. However, he has a 7lb penalty to contend with and may meet his match in the shape of ANIGHTINLAMBOURN, who won over fences at Cheltenham off 7lb higher last November. Ben Pauling's mare is well treated back over timber and may find more with the cheekpieces retained. C&D winner Dinoland completes the shortlist.
If DOUNE CASTLE is in the same form as when successful over C&D last time he might be able to defy a rise in the weights. The race Basford won at Southwell last week fell apart somewhat but he did it very easily and has to be respected under a 7 lb penalty. John McConnell's Dinoland may prove best of the rest.
Competitive in a marathon Flat handicap at Royal Ascot, THRONE HALL now attempts a staying trip for the first time over hurdles.

1st (1) (1.88/1 +0%) Sword Of Fate |
1.88/1(+0%) | (1) Sword Of Fate 1.88/1, C&D winner who bounced back to form to score at Wetherby (15.2f) in April. Mixed bag subsequently and no match for thriving sort in 3-runner handicap over C&D latest, but back in lower grade now and holds solid claims. Not one to rely upon nowadays but runs this track well and is on a workable mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (14/1 +72%) A Place Apart |
14/1(+72%) | (7) A Place Apart 14/1, Went off the boil for Gavin Cromwell in 2020 and little impact for current yard last year. Best watched from out of the handicap on return from 11-month absence. Out of form over hurdles when last seen last summer and hasn't won since 2018. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (2.5/1 -25%) Izzy's Champion |
2.5/1(-25%) | (6) Izzy's Champion 2.5/1, Made the frame again when third of 5 in handicap chase (7/2) at Market Rasen (19.2f, good to firm) 39 days ago. Ought to give another good account but others preferred for win purposes. 1 lb out of the weights. Fairly consistent 9yo who is suited by this C&D and won't mind what the weather does. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (7.5/1 +38%) Ballymagee |
7.5/1(+38%) | (2) Ballymagee 7.5/1, Hasn't shown much to date, including in handicap hurdle at Downpatrick last time. Has scored in points, however, and is worth monitoring in the market on chasing bow. Still unexposed under rules but finished well down the field on handicap hurdle debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (3) (3.33/1 +39%) Sea Prince |
3.33/1(+39%) | (3) Sea Prince 3.33/1, Nine-race maiden whose best effort thus far came when second in handicap hurdle at this course (23.9f, good) in June, Not in quite same form here, latest, and remains to be seen if switch to chasing brings about improvement. 0-7 over hurdles but was second here last month; makes chasing debut today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (14/1 +50%) Zagnzig |
14/1(+50%) | (5) Zagnzig 14/1, One win from 53 NH runs. Fared no better returned to hurdling at Downpatrick last month and is hard to recommend on yard debut/return to chasing. Veteran; without a win since 2018 and has struggled to get compettitive this year. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SWORD OF FATE sets the standard on the back of his C&D second to subsequent Summer Plate winner Born Famous last month and, while he was well held by that rival, he faces nothing of that calibre in here and could be hard to beat. Sea Prince goes well at this course and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Lough Carra is open to improvement over fences.
SWORD OF FATE is back in a lower grade than in recent starts and can record another course victory. Lough Carra may provide the chief threat, whilst the consistent Izzy's Champion is likely to be in the mix once more.
He's not very consistent but SWORD OF FATE often runs well in stronger races than this and has a good opportunity here.

1st (1) (4.5/1 +68%) Cave Court |
4.5/1(+68%) | (1) Cave Court 4.5/1, Still looking for first success and was never involved over a longer trip on chase debut at Downpatrick when last seen in May. Returns to hurdling now. Good second on handicap debut in December but disappointing since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (4.5/1 +31%) Pateen |
4.5/1(+31%) | (6) Pateen 4.5/1, Resumed winning ways at Hexham (16.2f) in May and far from disgraced when fifth of 12 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 12/1) last month. 1lb lower now and not discounted. Not getting any younger but ran okay last month and has each-way claims here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (12/1 -100%) Littel Flour |
12/1(-100%) | (2) Littel Flour 12/1, Unable to score in 14 attempts in Ireland but posted respectable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle (9/2) at Downpatrick (17.3f, good) last time and is worth a second look in market on debut for new yard. 0-11 over hurdles in Ireland but her Tipperary third in May gives her claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (12/1 -433%) Love Mystery |
12/1(-433%) | (4) Love Mystery 12/1, Fair maiden on Flat who offered more in this sphere when third of 8 in novice at Stratford (16.3f, good to soft, 66/1) 28 days ago, not knocked about. Merits consideration on switch to handicapping. Improved form when third in Stratford maiden last month; handicap debut today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (8/1 +11%) Jack Yeats |
8/1(+11%) | (8) Jack Yeats 8/1, Modest strike rate on the Flat and winless following 16 attempts over hurdles. Continues to drop down the weights without threatening to take advantage. Ran okay behind Pateen at Hexham in May but only win was gained on the Flat in 2019. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (25/1 -56%) Wasdell Dundalk |
25/1(-56%) | (3) Wasdell Dundalk 25/1, Landed 2m handicap chase for Jonjo O'Neill at Ffos Las last June but well below par since, including in 3 starts for new yard of late. Best watched at present. Hasn't fired on any of three starts for new stable this year; needs to turn a corner. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (6/1 +25%) Prospect House |
6/1(+25%) | (7) Prospect House 6/1, Bettered previous form when second in Market Rasen handicap hurdle (16.6f, good, 7/1) in May but failed to repeat that over same C&D last time. Others more appealing. 0-6 over hurdles but has claims if judged on Market Rasen second two starts ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (5) (2/1 +43%) Just Dottie |
2/1(+43%) | (5) Just Dottie 2/1, Offered little in bumper/on Flat but has found her feet over hurdles for current stable, overcoming a slipping saddle when scoring over C&D in May. Back on track when third of 8 in handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (16.6f, good, 9/2) latest and likely to make presence felt again. Won in pretty good style over C&D in May and has remained in good form; respected. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
JUST DOTTIE, who won a handicap hurdle against her own sex off 5lb lower here in May, has a lot going for her in this company and her proven liking for this circuit could be a crucial factor. A good tempo will ideally suit the selection but, with no obvious pace angle, she is versatile enough to make the running. Love Mystery has scope to improve in this discipline and is feared most, while recent Hexham winner Pateen also commands respect.
There should be more to come from LOVE MYSTERY over hurdles and he is fancied to make a successful handicap debut. Just Dottie and Pateen rate the principal dangers.
C&D winner JUST DOTTIE (nap) returns here after a good third at Market Rasen in June and is probably still on a workable mark.

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.
