---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (6) (7/2 -56%) Jetronic |
7/2(-56%) | (6) Jetronic 7/2, Chase winner in France who was a promising second of 4 in 2m novice chase at Cheltenham on his stable debut in October. Disappointing when remote fifth of 6 in a Sandown handicap chase the following month and off since ahead of this return to hurdles (placed in France). Back hurdling and should have a major say in this company; one chase run reads well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (11/10 +33%) Johnny Jump Up |
11/10(+33%) | (3) Johnny Jump Up 11/10, Point recruit who made a taking winning start to his Rules career in a 2¼m Fontwell novice hurdle 6 weeks ago. Looks a useful prospect. Looked a nice prospect when drawing clear on soft ground at Fontwell. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (5/1 -82%) Cloud Dancer |
5/1(-82%) | (1) Cloud Dancer 5/1, Made a winning hurdle debut over 2m at Newbury 13 months ago and bettered that form when third of 4 in a useful conditions race at Ascot (2m, good) on his reappearance in November. Steps up in trip on the back of another break. One of 2 strong contenders in this for his yard. Close third in a field of four at Ascot last time and that form has worked out well. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (50/1 -52%) Ghost Hunter |
50/1(-52%) | (5) Ghost Hunter 50/1, £80,000 buy after finishing second in an Irish point in April but well beaten both starts over hurdles thus far. Likely a longer-term prospect. Finished second in an Irish point but beaten about a distance in two hurdles. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (9/2 -13%) Fierce Warrior |
9/2(-13%) | (2) Fierce Warrior 9/2, Bumper winner in May. Looked wayward at right-handed Market Rasen on his hurdle debut in November but proved much more straightforward back left handed when winning over C&D in November. More will be needed under penalty but could find it for top yard. C&D winner but penalised accordingly and faces stiffer opposition this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (12/1 +64%) Record High |
12/1(+64%) | (7) Record High 12/1, Showed ability in a couple of Irish points and made a winning start under Rules in a Fontwell maiden bumper (2¼m, soft) in February 2022. Only a modest third on his C&D hurdle debut 8 months later and absent for a further 16 months since. Has ability but clearly fragile now back from another layoff. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (200/1 -203%) Dontaskchris |
200/1(-203%) | (4) Dontaskchris 200/1, 40/1 when pulled up in a course bumper last spring. Outsider now hurdling on return. In trouble from halfway when pulled up in a soft-ground bumper here last April (40-1). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (8) (125/1 -25%) Vendant |
125/1(-25%) | (8) Vendant 125/1, Placed in points but well held only start in bumpers and never got competitive in pair of novice/maiden hurdles over C&D late last year. Handicaps moving forward will be more his bag. Tailed off in a bumper and two hurdles since sent under rules and makes no appeal. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
CLOUD DANCER won a junior 'National Hunt' hurdle at Newbury last February which means he's able to retain his novice status. His sole outing this season was a promising effort behind a leading Cheltenham Festival handicap fancy in Doddiethegreat at Ascot and stepping up in trip promises to yield improvement. His stable companion Johnny Jump Up made a winning start at Fontwell and commands respect along with C&D winner Fierce Warrior.
An interesting opener. JOHNNY JUMP UP looked promising when successful on his Fontwell hurdle debut at the end of January and can get the better of stablemate Cloud Dancer. C&D winner Fierce Warrior looks best of the remainder.
Cloud Dancer has strong form claims and yet Niall Houlian is clearly sweeter on the chance of good Fontwell winner JOHNNY JUMP UP.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (2) (7/2 -27%) Baddesley |
7/2(-27%) | (2) Baddesley 7/2, Temperamental sort but he landed 2m4f hurdle here in November. 40/1, only ninth of 13 in handicap chase at Newbury (22.4f, soft) 48 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with more needed. Potentially well handicapped but hasn't shone back over fences the last twice. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (10/11 +27%) Sir Rock |
10/11(+27%) | (3) Sir Rock 10/11, Irish point winner who refused to race on his return but has taken really well to chasing, scoring over C&D and at Fontwell either side of Christmas. Up 4 lb but he's a big player. Won his last two and still looks well handicapped; travelled strongly throughout last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (9/2 +50%) American Gerry |
9/2(+50%) | (1) American Gerry 9/2, Successful twice over hurdles in 2021/22 but hasn't managed to find any progress since and below par both runs sent chasing, having a wind op before fourth of five at Catterick last time. Pulled up and last to finish in two chase runs, though latest was a respectable effort. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (22/1 -144%) Executive Pool |
22/1(-144%) | (4) Executive Pool 22/1, Struggling for form over hurdles and has been let down by jumping sent over fences, unseating his rider early at Lingfield last time. Hard to warm to. Defied higher mark over hurdles but jumping has looked an issue in his two chase runs. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (13/2 -86%) Elpologreg |
13/2(-86%) | (5) Elpologreg 13/2, Got off the mark in 5-runner handicap chase at Fakenham (16.3f, soft) 24 days ago. Back up in trip now and he can give another good account despite a 5 lb rise. Probably flattered at Fakenham as he was in trouble and the race rather fell apart. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SIR ROCK has improved for the switch to the larger obstacles having scored on both occasions over C&D and, more recently, at Fontwell in January. A 4lb rise for his latest success may not be enough to stop Toby Lawes' gelding from taking another step forward. Elpologreg had plenty go right for him when getting off the mark at Fakenham last time. He is likely to be in the mix, while American Gerry has been given a chance by the handicapper.
SIR ROCK hasn't looked back since sent over fences and a 4 lb rise for his latest Fontwell victory doesn't look sufficient to prevent him from completing a hat-trick. Fakenham-scorer Elpologreg appeals as the one to chase home Toby Lawes' 7-y-o ahead of the enigmatic Baddesley.
This looks quite weak and SIR ROCK must have every chance of completing a hat-trick. He still looks well handicapped.

1st (7) (7/2 +83%) Martin Spirit |
7/2(+83%) | (7) Martin Spirit 7/2, Winner over fences in France and has hit the crossbar several times over hurdles. However, record stands at 0-23 in this sphere and he's opposable. Has undergone a wind op since latest start. Returns to hurdling after wind op but with enough to prove and is 0-23 in this discipline. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (1/2 +64%) Salvatore |
1/2(+64%) | (1) Salvatore 1/2, Useful on the Flat for Peter Schiergen, winning twice from 4 starts in 2022. Hasn't troubled the judge in a handful of runs over hurdles so far but it's not hard to envisage a bold show from this 5-y-o now pitched into a handicap for his in-form yard. Tongue strap applied. Dual Flat winner; quiet so far over hurdles but handicaps can see him in a better light. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (18/1 +28%) Sawpit Samantha |
18/1(+28%) | (8) Sawpit Samantha 18/1, Has offered little over hurdles so far and hopes now pinned on the first-time cheekpieces sparking improvement. Sean Bowen is booked and cheekpieces added, but reservations for now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (20/1 +0%) Mountain Bay |
20/1(+0%) | (3) Mountain Bay 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden who showed some ability when fifth in Wincanton novice in November but he hasn't built on that in 3 subsequent starts. Beaten a good way in all his runs and that includes his handicap debut when 66-1. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (8/1 -78%) Crews Pitch |
8/1(-78%) | (4) Crews Pitch 8/1, Poor form over hurdles for previous stable and shaped as if better for run when only fifth in a handicap at Ludlow on chasing debut. 3 lb lower back in this sphere for new yard and he's not without each-way hope. Placed over hurdles; not a bad chase debut latest; of interest now with another new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SALVATORE has displayed some promise on his three hurdling starts to date and the application of cheekpieces once again, along with a tongue-tie, may see him step forward on his handicap bow. Sanitiser wasn't disgraced when fourth at Kempton in November and appears likely to have more to offer. Garitsa Bay hasn't shown much in novice hurdles but he has to be of interest on his first start in this company.
There should be better to come from dual Flat winner SALVATORE now that he moves into handicap company off what looks a fair opening mark. Sanitiser is clear second choice on the back of his eye-catching spin at Kempton, which was his first start over hurdles for the Gary Moore yard, while Crews Pitch and Uncle Arthur both have each-way claims.
There are alternatives but dual Flat winner SALVATORE (nap) has to be of interest sent handicapping at this lowly level.

1st (4) (7/4 -27%) San Pedro |
7/4(-27%) | (4) San Pedro 7/4, Came good for this yard with a wide-margin C&D (soft) success last month. Last of 4 without a penalty at Lingfield 10 days later and new 6 lb higher mark has now kicked in but will certainly have a chance if he puts his best foot forward. 6lb rise has kicked in since his Lingfield fourth but plenty in his favour otherwise. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (3/1 +57%) I See You Well |
3/1(+57%) | (2) I See You Well 3/1, Something of a course specialist, winning 5 times over fences here. However, recent efforts have lacked spark and he hasn't been seen out in this sphere since finishing fourth in the 2019 renewal of this race. Hasn't been seen over hurdles since finishing fourth in this race five years ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (7/4 -119%) Jerrash |
7/4(-119%) | (1) Jerrash 7/4, Successful over C&D off 6 lb higher last January and, having taken a step back in the right direction in first-time blinkers (retained here) over fences at Fontwell last time, he should prove hard to beat back hurdling in a thin race. Fair chase run last time in the new blinkers; C&D winner 13 months ago off 6lb higher. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (8/1 +60%) Ballinsker |
8/1(+60%) | (3) Ballinsker 8/1, Recorded a third win over fences at Chepstow last spring but no show in 3 outings since returning to action in November, including back hurdling at Ffos Las on penultimate start. On a dangerous mark if getting back on track and he has won after a similar break. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
JERRASH looks well placed to strike switching to hurdles for this assignment. Second over fences at Fontwell last time, that wasn't a bad run but he wasn't as fluent over his fences as his supporters would have liked so coming back over timber and dropping in trip looks ideal. San Pedro won over C&D two starts ago and heads the list of dangers from I See You Well.
This race has got JERRASH written all over it on the back of his solid second with blinkers enlisted in a handicap chase at Fontwell. He was a winner over C&D on his sole previous visit here last season and has slipped to a handy mark. San Pedro is the pick for forecast purposes ahead of I See You Well.
It's hard to rule out any of the four but SAN PEDRO is perhaps the safest option after his last two efforts.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (2) (16/5 -42%) Born At Midnight |
16/5(-42%) | (2) Born At Midnight 16/5, Career best when winning 5-runner handicap chase at this C&D (soft, 9/2) 7 days ago, pushed out. Should go well under a penalty if the race doesn't come too soon. Penalised for last week's easy C&D win; that was uncompetitive but clearly a player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (6/4 +73%) Hilltown |
6/4(+73%) | (7) Hilltown 6/4, Poor hurdler/chaser who is dropping in the weights without showing any sign that he's about to take advantage, going in snatches when below form at Wincanton last time. Worth a market check after a break. Has yet to fully convince over fences and was beaten 24l into third last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (9/1 +36%) Delgany Monarch |
9/1(+36%) | (3) Delgany Monarch 9/1, Only one who showed his form when landing 3-runner C&D handicap back in April and whilst he probably needed his seasonal return at Taunton (has unseated since), his present mark demands that little bit more. Beat two rivals for his sole win; only sixth on return and then unseated mid-race. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (6/1 -118%) Hard Frost |
6/1(-118%) | (4) Hard Frost 6/1, Found improvement when narrowly landing 9-runner handicap chase at Taunton in December and, while not in the same form at Huntingdon since, he could get back on track after a short break. Taunton winner off just 2lb lower; reportedly found holding ground against him last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (14/1 -155%) Head On |
14/1(-155%) | (1) Head On 14/1, Won 3 times in early stages of the 2021-22 campaign and has shaped better than the result a couple of times over fences this term. Not discounted from an appealing mark. Latest effort was better than it looks and he's on a good mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (9/2 -13%) Flemen's Tipple |
9/2(-13%) | (5) Flemen's Tipple 9/2, Wilted only late on chase debut at Market Rasen and shaped as if still in form back over hurdles at this course last time. Has some scope for better in this sphere. Goes well over hurdles here and was a good fourth on previous chase run (two starts back). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (33/1 -83%) Ballycorr |
33/1(-83%) | (6) Ballycorr 33/1, Justified support as he won his first race of any description at Sedgefield in May 2022. Sub-par efforts since, though, and needs to prove he retains ability. 3m3f winner in 2022 but missed the following year and he finished tailed off on his return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
BORN AT MIDNIGHT brings winning C&D form to the table which is key at a track like this. Providing this doesn't come too soon after last week's success, the nine-year-old is mostly consistent and looks up to going in again under a 7lb penalty. Delgany Monarch unseated his rider at Wincanton latest but it's a positive that he's back at the Sussex track given he won here in April last year. Flemen's Tipple should run his usual honest race.
HARD FROST has a poor run to shrug off but he'd been developing a solid record over fences prior to that and he's worth a chance to get back on the up. Recent-scorer Born At Midnight is an obvious threat and Flemen's Tipple has the potential for better after just one run in this discipline.
A chance is taken on HEAD ON. This is easier than last time at Doncaster where he ran well for a long way.

1st (1) (Evens +43%) Colours On Canvas |
Evens(+43%) | (1) Colours On Canvas Evens, Right back on the up when winning 7-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (soft) 28 days ago, kept up to work. Expected to be bang there. Comfortable winner from the front here last time and a 5lb rise could have been worse. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (9/4 -13%) Nordic Tiger |
9/4(-13%) | (3) Nordic Tiger 9/4, French import who is firmly on the up now and dug deep to score at Huntingdon a month ago. Return to this trip will suit and should put up a bold bid for the hat-trick. 10lb higher than last time now bidding for a hat-trick; returning to 2m4f is a positive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (14/1 +30%) Casa Loupi |
14/1(+30%) | (5) Casa Loupi 14/1, Has run poorly all three completed starts back over hurdles and fell on chasing debut at Lingfield last month. Plenty to prove. Going well when falling on chase debut; well treated and could be on the way back. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (11/1 +56%) Ray's The One |
11/1(+56%) | (7) Ray's The One 11/1, Course winner but well held both starts this season. Up in trip and fitted with a first-time tongue strap. He's on a good mark and perhaps the tongue-tie can trigger a revival. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (6/1 +8%) Individualiste |
6/1(+8%) | (4) Individualiste 6/1, Recorded a facile success eased in class/equipped with cheekpieces over hurdles at Taunton (19f) in December. However, that proved a weak race and he's been unable to match it, including over fences at Wincanton last time. Needs to bounce back. Heavy ground no good the last twice; if taking to blinkers he could stage a revival. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
COLOURS ON CANVAS remains an unexposed quantity and can continue on an upward trajectory despite the burden of top-weight. Stepping up in trip here last month unlocked another gear and, judged on his novice form, there are reasons to believe that the handicapper might not have caught up with him yet. The hat-trick seeking Nordic Tiger and Small Bad Bob appear to be the most obvious threats on paper.
NORDIC TIGER and Colours On Canvas are both going the right way but the former may be open to a bit more improvement, so he gets the marginal vote in a race that the pair could dominate. Small Bad Bob is another one to consider.
A tight finale. It was an eventful race in which COLOURS ON CANVAS dominated here last time but he might well have won regardless.

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.
