3.33
3.33/1(+33%)
(7) Coverdale 3.33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Again showed promise when third of 8 in maiden at Redcar (7f, good to firm, 9/2) 26 days ago, needing stiffer test. Type to do better now switched to handicaps/upped in trip.

Nights Over Egypt
6
6/1(+29%)
(1) Nights Over Egypt 6/1, Oasis Dream colt who has displayed definite signs of promise in a trio of novice events, challenging 2f out but no extra last ½f when fifth of 8 at Carlisle (7.8f) in August. Likelihood is we haven't seen the best of him yet.

16
16/1(+11%)
(3) Disputed 16/1, Suited by the step back up in trip to get off the mark at the third attempt in a Haydock novice (7f) 3 starts ago, scoring decisively despite still looking very green in front. Never figured switched to nurseries both starts since, however. Visor reached for now.

Valstar
50
50/1(-79%)
(13) Valstar 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden who improved (equipped with cheekpieces) when runner-up on nursery debut at Catterick (7f) in September. 5/1, well below that level when 12¾ lengths fifth of 6 to Vondelpark in nursery at Ripon (1m) 23 days ago. Bounce back called for.
8
11th (8) Lunacy (7/1 -56%)
Lunacy
7
7/1(-56%)
(8) Lunacy 7/1, New Bay colt. Not without promise in trio of maiden/novice events over 7f in recent weeks and no surprise to see him do better now stamina is drawn out further/with blinkers also enlisted.
5
12th (5) Vondelpark (10/1 -33%)
Vondelpark
10
10/1(-33%)
(5) Vondelpark 10/1, Mayson colt who showed improved form to get off the mark under this rider at Ripon (1m) 23 days ago, drawing clear from 2f out and winning easily. Handicapper has certainly had his say and this tougher but not underestimated by any means.

Slingsbytoo
33
33/1(-32%)
(9) Slingsbytoo 33/1, Bungle Inthejungle gelding. 6/1, matched previous best when third of 4 in minor event at Catterick (7f, good to soft) 19 days ago. Another likely to do better now handicapping with this longer trip rating a likely plus. Interesting if strong in betting.

Penny Ghent
80
80/1(-142%)
(11) Penny Ghent 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 28/1, fifth of 8 in maiden at this course (6f, good) 25 days ago, effort 2f out but no impression. Previous effort at Thirsk contained definite promise however and the switch to handicaps/step up to 1m both rate positives.

10
10/1(-43%)
(4) Alexa's Princess 10/1, Winner at Thirsk (7f) in August. 50/1, showed improved form when third of 10 in nursery at Newmarket (7f, good) 23 days ago, sticking to task well once headed. Ease back down in class rates a plus and claims if repeating that here.

Local Dynasty
1
1/1(+0%)
(4) Local Dynasty 1/1, Dubawi colt who scored on debut at Newmarket and, having finished fifth behind Chaldean the Acomb at York next time, he quickly got back on the up when landing 1m Sandown novice 33 days ago, staying on strongly. Leadimg claims back up in grade.

Luckin Brew
6
6/1(+40%)
(8) Luckin Brew 6/1, Lope De Vega filly who confirmed previous promise and proved determined when off the mark in 11-runner Kempton novice (1m) in September. Unlikely she's reached her limit.

Caernarfon
25
25/1(+62%)
(7) Caernarfon 25/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 13-runner nursery (8/1) at Ayr (7.2f, good) 31 days ago. Has steadily gone the right way to date but this demands a jolt of improvement if she's to figure up in class.
1
4th (1) Arkendale (16/1 -33%)
Arkendale
16
16/1(-33%)
(1) Arkendale 16/1, Pivotal colt. Shaped well when second of 10 in maiden at Haydock (1m, good) on debut 23 days ago, having to weave way through. Looks sure to progress but this requires good bit more at this stage.

Captain Winters
7.5
7.5/1(-50%)
(2) Captain Winters 7.5/1, Confirmed previous promise when off the mark at third attempt in a Thirsk novice (7f) in August. Showed improved home (came home well) when third in Haydock listed race (1m) 44 days ago and claims of hitting the frame again.

66
66/1(-633%)
(5) Think First 66/1, Kessaar colt who arrives having made it 2 wins from 3 starts when landing 4-runner Chelmsford novice (10f) 18 days ago. Open to further progress moving forward for all this is more demanding.

33
33/1(+0%)
(9) Shandy Star 33/1, Fairly useful filly. Gained third victory of the year when landing 9-runner nursery (6/1) at this course (6f, good) 14 days ago, finding extra. Significantly up in trip now and she may just be vulnerable to one or two in this field.

Sirona
4
4/1(+11%)
(6) Sirona 4/1, Made a very bright start to her career, making it 2 wins from 3 starts when landing 7-runner listed race at Cologne (7.4f, good to soft, 14/10) 22 days ago by 4 lengths from Tamarinde, well on top finish. Claims with more to come.

Chillhi
16
16/1(+20%)
(3) Chillhi 16/1, Much improved when doubling career tally on nursery bow at Newcastle (1m) in September. Rallied well to finish fifth of 12 in minor event at York (7f, good) 10 days ago but this demands a little bit more.

Wise Eagle
4
4/1(+0%)
(6) Wise Eagle 4/1, 5-y-o who impressed when landing handicaps at Musselburgh/Redcar (at upto 18f) in August. Gave his running again in a deeper affair when fourth in Mallard Handicap (14.5f) 5 weeks ago and he's a live each-way player again.
1
2nd (1) Golden Flame (22/1 -100%)
Golden Flame
22
22/1(-100%)
(1) Golden Flame 22/1, Useful on his day and, granted run of the race, returned to form when third over 2m at Ascot in August. Hasn't been in anything like the same form either outing subsequently but could bounce back if allowed his own way on the front end.

Morando
5.5
5.5/1(-38%)
(4) Morando 5.5/1, Not scored since 2019 but did run up to previous best this campaign when creditable fifth of 15 in handicap at Chester (18.6f, good to soft, 33/1) 23 days ago, headway under pressure over 1f out but never nearer. No surprise to see him thereabouts.

1.25/1(+0%)
(5) Vino Victrix 1.25/1, Back to winning ways at Goodwood (2m) in August and ran a cracker when runner-up to Irish raider Run For Oscar in the Cesarewitch 9 days ago. Rates a big player with a repeat.

Indefatigable
3.5
3.5/1(+50%)
(7) Indefatigable 3.5/1, Smart hurdler who landed a 12f maiden here prior to landing Grade 2 at Wetherby 12 months ago. Ended the campaign with a good second in Gr 2 hurdle and this test should hold no fears on return to action.
2
6th (2) Land Of Winter (12/1 -9%)
Land Of Winter
12
12/1(-9%)
(2) Land Of Winter 12/1, Ended 2021 with an emphatic win in 2m Nottingham handicap but has found life tougher this campaign, beaten 3f out when sixteenth of 21 in the Cesarewitch 9 days ago. Others appeal more for win purposes.

Lynwood Gold
100
100/1(-100%)
(3) Lynwood Gold 100/1, Hasn't tasted success since summer of 2020 and having produced a moody display on the Flat at Galway in July, he was unable to figure back over hurdles at Killarney (22.3f) in August. Starts out for new yard now.
8
8th (8) Visite Officielle (100/1 +33%)
Visite Officielle
100
100/1(+33%)
(8) Visite Officielle 100/1, Fair filly. 18/1, fourth of 9 in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago, her effort flattening out late on. Type to do make her mark in handicaps for this yard but she's loads to find in this line up. Hard to fancy.

0.91/1(+27%)
(4) Poker Face 0.91/1, Fastnet Rock gelding who impressed when making winning debut over 1m here in September and had little trouble following up when beating a fellow last-time-out winner at Newcastle (1m) 2 weeks later. Big player now handicapping up in trip with more to come.
10
2nd (10) Billy Roberts (33/1 +0%)
Billy Roberts
33
33/1(+0%)
(10) Billy Roberts 33/1, Course winner. Didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap at Haydock (10.2f, good, 10/3) 73 days ago, helped by being held up in strongly-run race. More on his plate in this deeper affair, however.

Jean Baptiste
20
20/1(-43%)
(3) Jean Baptiste 20/1, Back-to-back winner at upto 10f during the summer and dispelled couple of lesser efforts when third in 16-runner York handicap (10.2f) 9 days ago. However, this mark is about right.

Reach

(8) Reach 2.25/1, Sea The Stars filly who was impressive as she made her third start a winning one in a 12f maiden 2 weeks ago, showing good speed to settle matters in a matter of strides. Drop back in trip will hold no fears now handicapping and type to go on improving.

Cockalorum
5.5
5.5/1(+35%)
(6) Cockalorum 5.5/1, C&D winner. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Refitted with headgear, ran respectably when second of 10 in handicap at Hamilton (9.2f, good) 21 days ago. Claims of hitting the frame again from his reduced mark.

Myristica
25
25/1(+24%)
(2) Myristica 25/1, Landed back-to-back handicaps at Ripon/Beverley in June but exploits have been a little hit and miss subsequently, tenth of 16 in handicap at York (10.2f, good to soft) 9 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Mark is easing at least.

Thunderclap
22
22/1(-238%)
(5) Thunderclap 22/1, Did well as a 3-y-o, his season culminating in success in this race from 7 lb lower mark 12 months ago. Caught the eye on return at Kempton in May and can't have been himself at Redcar in June. Absent since but booking of Buick catches the eye here.

Ghasham
66
66/1(-267%)
(7) Ghasham 66/1, Low-mileage 3-y-o who opened account in a Cork maiden (10f) in April. Not disgraced in trio of handicaps thereafter for Joseph O'Brien and the market should prove useful back from 3 months off/on debut for new yard.

(15) Magical Effect 5.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Catterick in September. Good second of 11 in handicap (10/3) at this C&D (good) 14 days ago, just failing. Only 1 lb higher now and this veteran is a player again in present groove.

28/1(-56%)
(10) Kentucky Rose 28/1, Eased in weights and ran creditably under a positive ride when runner-up at Hamilton (6f) on penultimate start in September. However, unable to scale same heights when eighth of 11 in a C&D handicap 2 weeks ago.

5/1(+44%)
(2) Gumdrop 5/1, Chester nursery winner (6f) last summer who ran best race of this campaign when runner-up over 7f at Thirsk in July. Essentially below that level all 3 starts since but he's now operating from a career-low mark if he can put it all together.

(11) Sir Benedict 16/1, 11/2, creditable third of 12 in handicap at Hamilton (5f, good) 21 days ago, likely he'd of gone closer still with a clear passage. Consistency hard to knock and return to 6f will hold no fears.

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
