1st (4)  (4/1 +33%)Beau Balko |
4/1(+33%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Beau Balko 4/1, Successful on his sole Flat start in France and got off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt when dictating at Hereford in November. Disappointing at Taunton since but remains with potential after a break. | |||
2nd (3)  (6.5/1 -63%)Mayhem Mya |
6.5/1(-63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mayhem Mya 6.5/1, Dual-bumper winner who confirmed hurdling debut promise when wide-margin winner at Chepstow (2m) in January last year. Not at best this season but was better than the result last time. Drop in trip should suit. | |||
3rd (2)  (28/1 -12%)Swinging London |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Swinging London 28/1, Scored at Fakenham in February before excellent sixth in Fred Winter at Cheltenham following month. Lost his way since but will probably strip fitter for his latest outing at Fontwell. | |||
4th (9)  (4/1 +0%)Jilaijone |
4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Jilaijone 4/1, Fair ex-French hurdler who made a winning start for his new yard in 18f juvenile at Fontwell. Two good efforts since and looks well worthy of respect. | |||
5th (5)  (40/1 +0%)Kannapolis |
40/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Kannapolis 40/1, Winner of a 3-runner handicap at Huntingdon in March but has failed by a long way to reproduce that level of form in subsequent starts. Others preferred. | |||
6th (7)  (22/1 +21%)Presuming Ed |
22/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Presuming Ed 22/1, Fair hurdler who scored at Ludlow in November but needs to bounce back from a poor effort. | |||
7th (6)  (3.33/1 +45%)Gingerbred |
3.33/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Gingerbred 3.33/1, Confirmed previous encouragement when winning a handicap at Exeter last time and there's every chance he will go well again. | |||
8th (8)  (28/1 -12%)Ray's The One |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ray's The One 28/1, Fair hurdler who scored at Fontwell in December and has run respectably on the Flat since last seen in this sphere. Not discounted. | |||
9th (11)  (4/1 -20%)Freddy Robinson |
4/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Freddy Robinson 4/1, Fair maiden on Flat who built on his hurdle debut fourth at Newcastle when seeing off 5 rivals in a Musselburgh Class 2 in December. Solid effort under a penalty next time and makes plenty of appeal. | |||
10th (10)  (66/1 -313%)Ferdinand Star |
66/1(-313%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Ferdinand Star 66/1, Fair maiden hurdler in Ireland for Patrick Magee, finishing second in 2m Tramore maiden on final start over there in October. Low-key start for this yard, though. | |||
11th (1)  (22/1 -57%)Flamelco |
22/1(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Flamelco 22/1, 71/10, fifth of 12 in minor event hurdle at Clairefontaine (17.9f, soft). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving P. & C. Peltier. Wears hood. Makes handicap hurdle debut. Worth monitoring in the betting. |

1st (3)  (9/1 -38%)Bun Doran |
9/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bun Doran 9/1, Creditable second of 9 in handicap chase at Ludlow on penultimate start but failed to back it up at Warwick last month. May well bounce back. | |||
2nd (4)  (1.38/1 -10%)Corrigeen Rock |
1.38/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Corrigeen Rock 1.38/1, Fairly useful novice hurdler last season and winner of first 2 completed starts over fences this season. Good second at this course last time and makes plenty of appeal. | |||
3rd (1)  (2.5/1 -25%)Quel Destin |
2.5/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Quel Destin 2.5/1, Smart hurdler who produced his best effort over fences when landing a novice at Lingfield 16 days ago. This is tougher but he's potentially well treated. | |||
4th (2)  (2.75/1 +39%)Llandinabo Lad |
2.75/1(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Llandinabo Lad 2.75/1, Useful hurdler who has made an encouraging start in this sphere and shaped as if still in form when fifth at Cheltenham last time. Drop back in trip should help. |

1st (5)  (1.25/1 +9%)You Wear It Well |
1.25/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) You Wear It Well 1.25/1, Bumper winner who readily landed first 2 starts over hurdles in the autumn and ran well to finish runner-up behind Hermes Allen in Grade 2 Challow at Newbury (20.5f) looking well served by step up in trip. Will go on improving and she rates a lead player. | |||
2nd (2)  (7.5/1 -15%)She's A Saint |
7.5/1(-15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) She's A Saint 7.5/1, Irish point winner who has made a solid start over hurdles, justifying cramped odds on back of pair runners-up efforts in listed mares' events at Ffos Las (15.8f) 16 days ago. Step up to this 2½m trip promises to unlock further progress. | |||
3rd (1)  (1.62/1 +14%)Deeply Superficial |
1.62/1(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Deeply Superficial 1.62/1, Point winner who made a successful Rules debut in 2m Galway maiden hurdle (2m) in October and stepped up on that form when fourth in 6-runner Navan Grade 2 in December. That form has substance and she's respected on back of wind op/fitted with a tongue tie. | |||
4th (4)  (14/1 -27%)Vicki Vale |
14/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Vicki Vale 14/1, Taking winner on hurdles debut in a Hereford mares' maiden (19.7f) in November and, having been pulled up in Grade 1 Challow next start (did plenty on front end), she returned to form when second in a Ffos Las novice 24 days ago. Still, others rate stronger. | |||
5th (3)  (14/1 -40%)Touchy Feely |
14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Touchy Feely 14/1, Placed all 3 starts in bumpers and bright start over hurdles upped in trip, off the mark at Doncaster (19.4f) in November prior to defying a penalty with something to spare at Ludlow (21.2f) a month later. Going right way but this does demand more. |

1st (3)  (1.25/1 +29%)Broken Halo |
1.25/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Broken Halo 1.25/1, Low-mileage 8-y-o who signed off last season by landing novice chase at Fontwell (21.6f). Took a step back in right direction when eighth of 12 in handicap over C&D 12 days ago. Weighted to go close. | |||
2nd (5)  (5/1 -100%)Rolling Dylan |
5/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Rolling Dylan 5/1, Unreliable type who was pulled up in handicap chase (12/1) at this C&D 76 days ago. Took this event 12 months ago though so this veteran is no forlorn hope with blinkers on for the 1st time. | |||
3rd (4)  (3/1 +70%)Red Happy |
3/1(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Red Happy 3/1, Fair hurdler/chaser who wasn't disgraced when fourth of 10 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good to soft) 10 days ago. More is still required back in this sphere. | |||
4th (6)  (25/1 -178%)Ballycross |
25/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Ballycross 25/1, Veteran who was still capable of fairly useful form over fences around 3m for Nicky Henderson last season. Well held over hurdles on yard debut at Uttoxeter so more needed now. | |||
|PU| (7)  (7/1 -8%)Tout Est Permis |
7/1(-8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Tout Est Permis 7/1, Smart Irish chaser in his prime for Noel Meade. Nothing like so good lately and pulled up in Taunton hunter chase on his stable debut last month. Needs a big step forward. | |||
|PU| (1)  (11/1 -22%)Texard |
11/1(-22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Texard 11/1, Fairly useful chaser. Off 4 months before below-par seventh of 9 in handicap chase at Leicester (20.1f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Up in trip and should strip fitter now. |

1.8/1(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Givega 1.8/1, Winning pointer who looked an excellent prospect when bagging novice hurdles at Lingfield and Fontwell. Perhaps found step up to 21f on deep ground too much of a test in Grade 2 company last time and, back down in trip in calmer waters here, he merits respect. | |||
2nd (4)  (0.91/1 -25%)Immortal |
0.91/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Immortal 0.91/1, Good jumps pedigree and promising debut when chasing home the useful Authorised Speed over C&D (soft) in December, in turn pulling clear of the rest. Since undergone a wind op and likely to prove hard to beat with improvement on the cards. Tongue strap applied. | |||
3rd (2)  (4.5/1 +18%)Mamoon Star |
4.5/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Mamoon Star 4.5/1, Failed to win in 4 bumpers but achieved a decent level of form and made a successful start over hurdles at Taunton in November. Disappointing when well beaten at Kempton last time but could bounce back after a small break. | |||
4th (3)  (20/1 +0%)Easy Rider |
20/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Easy Rider 20/1, Half-brother to ungenuine but useful hurdler Buckle Street and fair chaser Debden Bank. Held back by inexperience when sixth on debut in a 17-runner Wincanton bumper and yard saddles a more appealing candidate in Immortal. | |||
5th (6)  (80/1 -100%)Moonlight Artist |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Moonlight Artist 80/1, Half-brother to numerous winners but failed to trouble the judge in a couple of bumpers and looks more one for the longer-term. | |||
6th (8)  (40/1 +20%)West End Boy |
40/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) West End Boy 40/1, Fetched £28,000 as a 3-y-o and he's out of an unraced half-sister to bumper winner/fairly useful 2m/2½m hurdle winner Ard Abhainn. Yard's newcomers usually come on for a run and, in any case, this is a tough race in which to make his debut. | |||
7th (5)  (66/1 +0%)Invictus Allen |
66/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Invictus Allen 66/1, Placed on the second of his 2 starts between the flags but this 5-y-o is pitched into a warm-looking race for his Rules debut. Yard also saddles Tik Tok. | |||
8th (7)  (80/1 +20%)Tik Tok |
80/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Tik Tok 80/1, Bred to be smart and shaped with a little encouragement on his sole start in bumpers. Not given a hard time in his 2 starts over hurdles to date and handicaps will likely be more his thing in due course. |

1st (5)  (1.5/1 +8%)Stumptown |
1.5/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Stumptown 1.5/1, Hurdles winner who jumped with greater fluency than in his previous 5 starts over fences when landing a handicap chase by 12 lengths at Thurles (21.7f, soft) last month. 13 lb higher mark to overcome here but this Irish raider is a major player nonetheless. | |||
2nd (7)  (3.5/1 +13%)Your Own Story |
3.5/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Your Own Story 3.5/1, Dual point scorer who confirmed his hurdling debut promise when landing a 6-runner novice at Carlisle last spring. Has made the frame all 4 starts since switched to fences and likely to give a good account of himself. | |||
3rd (6)  (14/1 +0%)Keep Wondering |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Keep Wondering 14/1, In first-time cheekpieces, showed a bit more than previously this season when fourth at Ffos Las (23.8f, heavy) in December. However, that effort still remains some way below his useful best over fences. | |||
4th (4)  (14/1 -56%)I See You Well |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) I See You Well 14/1, Enjoyed a productive 2021/22 campaign and returned to form when seeing off 5 rivals over this C&D in December. Did well under the circumstances when fourth at Plumpton but this is a tougher race and he looks vulnerable. | |||
5th (2)  (8/1 +11%)Zhiguli |
8/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Zhiguli 8/1, Improved over fences last season, winning twice at Lingfield. Bettered low-key reappearance effort (reportedly bled) when third in a 7-runner Kempton handicap (20.5f, heavy) and merits respect back up in trip here off a 2 lb lower mark. | |||
6th (3)  (14/1 +22%)Domaine De L'isle |
14/1(+22%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Domaine De L'isle 14/1, Seven-time winner over fences but has largely struggled since last getting his head in front back in April 2021. | |||
7th (1)  (4.5/1 -35%)Poppa Poutine |
4.5/1(-35%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Poppa Poutine 4.5/1, Edged out at Haydock in November and ran at least as well in a stronger event when fourth of 11 in handicap chase at Cheltenham (26.3f, good to soft) on New Year's Day. This is a less taxing assignment and he's one for the shortlist. |

2.75/1(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Inneston 2.75/1, Evens, built on hurdilng debut promise when third of 10 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, soft) 18 days ago. This French bumper winner needs considering now going into handicaps. | |||
2nd (8)  (6/1 +8%)Twin Power |
6/1(+8%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Twin Power 6/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up on first of 2 starts in bumpers and landed 6-runner handicap hurdle at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago. Likely to improve further. One to consider. | |||
3rd (6)  (28/1 +58%)Keep Running |
28/1(+58%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Keep Running 28/1, French import who comfortably made a winning debut for this yard in maiden hurdle at Bangor in September. However, has found things tougher under a penalty since and more required on his handicap bow. | |||
4th (7)  (3.5/1 +13%)Amrons Sage |
3.5/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Amrons Sage 3.5/1, Won sole start in Irish points and promise shown when second both starts in novice hurdles, going on well at the finish at Ludlow in December. Highly likely he can do better now handicapping over further. Interesting. | |||
5th (2)  (20/1 -100%)Gaelic Park |
20/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Gaelic Park 20/1, 9/4, creditable second of 10 in novice hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, good) 20 days ago. Much respected on his handicap hurdle debut. | |||
6th (3)  (7.5/1 +38%)Egbert |
7.5/1(+38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Egbert 7.5/1, Lightly raced under NH rules. Career best when winning 15-runner novice hurdle (6/4) at Ludlow (21.2f, soft) 41 days ago. Considered now going into handicaps. | |||
7th (5)  (16/1 +0%)Sporting Mike |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Sporting Mike 16/1, Winner at Southwell in November and not disgraced when fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f, soft) 37 days ago. Shortlisted. | |||
8th (9)  (14/1 -56%)Missed Tee |
14/1(-56%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Missed Tee 14/1, Easily won sole start in Irish points and arrives on a hat-trick after successes at Uttoxeter and Hereford (handicap debut) either side of Christmas. More to offer for top yard so she's firmly in the picture. | |||
9th (11)  (33/1 +18%)Grey D'alco |
33/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Grey D'alco 33/1, Winning pointer who has shown fair form in this sphere, fourth of 14 in novice at Lingfield (19.5f, heavy, 16/5) 57 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Much respected on handicap bow. | |||

8/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Equinus 8/1, Promising sort. 5/2, won 11-runner handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (20f, soft) 24 days ago. Can progress further despite 5 lb rise. Well in the mix. | |||

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.
