(3) Eamon An Cnoic 3.33/1, Capable of useful form over fences and went with a lot more zest when runner-up at Chepstow a fortnight ago. Long way clear of the third that day and looks well-in from same mark.
1
2nd (1) (2.25/1 +36%) Will Sting
2.25
2.25/1(+36%)
(1) Will Sting 2.25/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who left previous hurdles form well behind when justifying support on handicap debut at Warwick a month ago. Up 13 lb for that easy win but remains of interest.
9
3rd (9) (10/1 +38%) Ballydoyle
10
10/1(+38%)
(9) Ballydoyle 10/1, Fair ex-German 10f Flat winner who hinted at ability both starts in Plumpton novice events last year. Creditable third on Flat last time but needs to up his game to win from current mark.
8
4th (8) (12/1 -33%) Imphal
12
12/1(-33%)
(8) Imphal 12/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Quiet start over hurdles but is reasonable nick in jumpers bumpers in recent weeks, placed twice.
6
5th (6) (5/1 +55%) Blueberg
5
5/1(+55%)
(6) Blueberg 5/1, Big prices all 3 starts but positives to draw from a brace of in-frame efforts over hurdles at Ffos Las. Potential for better in handicaps but drop back to 2m not sure to suit.
7
6th (7) (25/1 -194%) John Betjeman
25
25/1(-194%)
(7) John Betjeman 25/1, Made a few mistakes and headed on the run-in by Khan at Plumpton 24 days ago. Like that rival, his opening mark looks too high.
2
|PU| (2) (5.5/1 +82%) Let The Heirs Walk
5.5
5.5/1(+82%)
(2) Let The Heirs Walk 5.5/1, Maiden/novice winner in 2020 but ran poorly in Sandown listed handicap when last seen. This is easier and yard going better now.
10
|PU| (10) (20/1 +9%) Itsonlyrocknroll
20
20/1(+9%)
(10) Itsonlyrocknroll 20/1, Opened hurdles account on last season's belated reappearance (first run following a wind op) at Wincanton. Too free on several starts since and back hurdling following error-strewn chase bow.
4
|PU| (4) (22/1 -100%) Khan
22
22/1(-100%)
(4) Khan 22/1, Group 1 winner on the Flat (heavy ground) in Germany in 2018. Kept mistakes down when winning weak 5-runner maiden hurdle at Plumpton 24 days ago and mark is high on bare form.
LTO Selection:
13:20 Sandown Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(3) Numitor 1.75/1, Chasing type who has relished the switch to chasing, making it 2 from 2 in this sphere when scoring at Wincanton a fortnight ago. Hat-trick is on the cards with further improvement likely.
6
(6) (6/1 -9%) Early Du Lemo
6
6/1(-9%)
(6) Early Du Lemo 6/1, Off the mark for this yard at Lingfield (2m) in January 2019 and has proved he retains ability this term, going well for a long way in front when eventually fourth over C&D last time. Not discounted.
1
(1) (6/1 +25%) Flegmatik
6
6/1(+25%)
(1) Flegmatik 6/1, Fairly useful 2m hurdler who made smooth transition to chasing with handicap win at Carlisle on return. Disappointing since, though, notably when pulled up at Ascot last time. Cheekpieces go on.
2
(2) (7.5/1 -88%) Enzo D'Airy
7.5
7.5/1(-88%)
(2) Enzo D'Airy 7.5/1, Ex-French hurdler who has scored twice over fences this term and shaped as if still in top form (stretched by 20f) when third at Ludlow 28 days ago. Solid claims back at the minimum trip.
5
(5) (11/1 +0%) Enrichissant
11
11/1(+0%)
(5) Enrichissant 11/1, Off the mark at the third attempt over fences last season and at least respectable efforts this term, fourth of 12 over 19f at Ascot latest.
7
1st (7) (5/1 +29%) Belargus
5
5/1(+29%)
(7) Belargus 5/1, Winless since early 2019 but good second at Warwick on latest chase outing and showed his well-being when placed in a jumpers bumper last week. Worth considering.
4
2nd (4) (7.5/1 -7%) Grey Diamond
7.5
7.5/1(-7%)
(4) Grey Diamond 7.5/1, Won over timber for Nigel Twiston-Davies and has shown aptitude for chasing, third of 6 in handicap at Newbury on debut for current stable last month. Needs more to defy this mark, however.

(4) (1.75/1 +7%) Little River Bay
1.75
1.75/1(+7%)
(4) Little River Bay 1.75/1, Much improved and made it 3-3 this term when defying double penalty in 15-runner novice at Newbury (20.5f, heavy) 29 days ago. Open to further progress, and hold leading claims.
3
(3) (9/1 -20%) Little Mo
9
9/1(-20%)
(3) Little Mo 9/1, Placed in Irish points before impressively making all in 2m novice hurdles at Hexham and Sandown either side of Christmas. Since had wind op and this longer trip is sure to suit so interesting.
8
(8) (12/1 +14%) Uptown Lady
12
12/1(+14%)
(8) Uptown Lady 12/1, Had wind op before much-improved form when 40/1-winner of 19f novice hurdle at Warwick (heavy) 15 days ago. She may do better still but this demands a lot more, however.
6
(6) (14/1 -75%) Rayna's World
14
14/1(-75%)
(6) Rayna's World 14/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Landed odds in 2½m Hexham maiden in October and in good form since until last of 6 in Doncaster Grade 2 last time. Needs to bounce back.
2
(2) (25/1 -108%) Belle De Manech
25
25/1(-108%)
(2) Belle De Manech 25/1, Has quickly made into a fairly useful hurdler, landing 2m novice at Wincanton before very good second of 9 at Fontwell last month. Step up in trip will show her in a better light. Well in the mix.
1
1st (1) (18/1 -50%) Anythingforlove
18
18/1(-50%)
(1) Anythingforlove 18/1, Dual bumper winner who has also scored twice at 2m over hurdles at Lingifeld and Catterick this term. Not disgraced when fourth of 5 in Haydock Grade 2 since so needs considering here.
7
2nd (7) (6.5/1 +19%) Sandymount Rose
6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(7) Sandymount Rose 6.5/1, Consistent mare who arrives on a hat-trick after ready wins in 23f handicaps at Exeter and Ludlow last month. This is tougher but she's not dismissed lightly in her current mood.
5
3rd (5) (2.5/1 +29%) Misty Whisky
2.5
2.5/1(+29%)
(5) Misty Whisky 2.5/1, Useful bumper winner who has really clicked over hurdles since her wind op, scoring at Uttoxeter and Ludlow before excellent second of 20 in 2m5f Kempton handicap. Another bold showing on the cards.
LTO Selection:
14:30 Sandown Maiden Hurdle (Class 1) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(4) Mac Tottie 5/1, Good strike rate over hurdles (4-8) and off the mark at fourth attempt over fences in handicap at Market Rasen (21.5f, soft), jumping well. Good second in similar event there since. Respected.
8
(8) (8/1 +0%) Caltex
8
8/1(+0%)
(8) Caltex 8/1, Made winning debut for this stable at Leicester last February and best run since when 7 lengths third (Mac Tottie second) at Market Rasen since. Claims if he can build on that.
3
(3) (14/1 +0%) Not Another Muddle
14
14/1(+0%)
(3) Not Another Muddle 14/1, Had a good 2019 but was pulled up in the Plate at Cheltenham on his sole outing last term and well beaten in 2 comeback outings this winter. Mark on the slide but something to prove for now.
1
(1) (25/1 -127%) One Style
25
25/1(-127%)
(1) One Style 25/1, In cracking form when rattling up a hat-trick of wins in mud last winter but in nothing like the same form this time round, pulling up on both starts. First-time tongue tie needs to make difference.
2
(2) (28/1 -155%) Pop Rockstar
28
28/1(-155%)
(2) Pop Rockstar 28/1, Useful chaser on his day but he's turned in a couple of lacklustre displays since his good second at Carlisle on reappearance. Short break needs to have perked him up.
9
(9) (40/1 -150%) Twenty Twenty
40
40/1(-150%)
(9) Twenty Twenty 40/1, Fairly useful 19f winning hurdler who appeared to excel himself when making a winning chasing debut in Plumpton novice in January. However, unable to back that up in Leicester handicap since.
6
(6) (80/1 -300%) Punches Cross
80
80/1(-300%)
(6) Punches Cross 80/1, Very capable performer when on-song but ran poorly on final start for Joseph Patrick O'Brien and not much encouragement for new yard this season. Could only consider if backed.
5
1st (5) (2.75/1 +39%) No Getaway
2.75
2.75/1(+39%)
(5) No Getaway 2.75/1, Very much a chaser on looks and duly shaped very well on debut over fences when second at Market Rasen. Disappointing at Newbury since but could get back on track after wind op.
7
2nd (7) (10/1 -25%) Doitforthevillage
10
10/1(-25%)
(7) Doitforthevillage 10/1, Useful chaser at best who looked to be on the decline until winning over C&D last month. Not in the same form when well-held fourth back here since.
10
3rd (10) (2/1 +27%) Mister Murchan
2
2/1(+27%)
(10) Mister Murchan 2/1, Taken well to fences this term, making it 2 wins from only 4 attempts when seeing off 9 rivals over this trip at Wincanton last month. 8 lb rise forces him up in grade but still respected.

1.88
1.88/1(+0%)
(11) Robin's Dream 1.88/1, Could only manage fifth in a Plumpton bumper on debut but left that behind when pulling clear with a Henderson odds-on shot on 2m Newbury hurdle debut (heavy) last month. Should be winning soon.
9
(9) (18/1 -50%) Rabski
18
18/1(-50%)
(9) Rabski 18/1, Successful debut in Ffos Las bumper in this headgear in October. Ran to only a modest level when sixth on 19.5f Lingfield hurdle debut the following month but he could leave that bare form behind now.
3
(3) (28/1 -133%) Cadmar
28
28/1(-133%)
(3) Cadmar 28/1, Heavy-ground Chepstow bumper winner last winter. Not up to an Ascot listed event on return but retains potential now hurdling.
1
(1) (150/1 -127%) An Tailliur
150
150/1(-127%)
(1) An Tailliur 150/1, Well held in a bumper/novice hurdles in recent months. Improvement required.
5
(5) (150/1 -50%) Getthepot
150
150/1(-50%)
(5) Getthepot 150/1, Has looked more one for the longer term in a bumper and 2 novice hurdles this season.
2
(2) (200/1 -300%) Barrakhov
200
200/1(-300%)
(2) Barrakhov 200/1, No more than hinted at ability in 3 starts to date and probably more one for handicaps further down the line.
12
(12) (250/1 -150%) Tommie Beau
250
250/1(-150%)
(12) Tommie Beau 250/1, Fair form when fifth at Chepstow only start in bumpers, but both efforts in this sphere have lacked spark.
7
(7) (300/1 -200%) Picturesque View
300
300/1(-200%)
(7) Picturesque View 300/1, Has hinted at ability but unlikely to be of interest until handicaps.
10
1st (10) (2.5/1 -11%) Red Rookie
2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(10) Red Rookie 2.5/1, Useful form when winning a brace of bumpers last season. Ran below that level sent hurdling at Lingfield in October, but that race has worked out well and he's bound to do better.
6
2nd (6) (66/1 -65%) Mister Watson
66
66/1(-65%)
(6) Mister Watson 66/1, Shaped promisingly when runner-up in Hereford bumper last March, but has offered little both starts over hurdles, pulling up at Ludlow latterly.
8
3rd (8) (1.38/1 +21%) Pipesmoker
1.38
1.38/1(+21%)
(8) Pipesmoker 1.38/1, Showed useful form when placed both starts in novice hurdles last season, runner-up at Ascot (19.3f, heavy) on latter occasion. Taken a bit of time to get him back but sets a good standard.
LTO Selection:
15:40 Sandown Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Highest Sun 3.5/1, Useful chaser who has become well handicapped and has looked back in form the last twice. Slight drop in trip should suit and he seems ready to strike.
10
(10) (6/1 +14%) Cuban Pete
6
6/1(+14%)
(10) Cuban Pete 6/1, Started the season with a bang, bagging handicap chases at Stratford and Hereford. Not disgraced off this revised mark in a good race at Newbury (26f, good to soft) last time and couldn't rule out.
7
(7) (12/1 -41%) Skipthecuddles
12
12/1(-41%)
(7) Skipthecuddles 12/1, Useful performer in his pomp and, having been supported, showed there's still some life in him when third at Newbury last month. Well treated if he can build on that.
4
(4) (18/1 -13%) Jepeck
18
18/1(-13%)
(4) Jepeck 18/1, Won 3 times last season, including at this track, but hasn't returned in anything like the same form this time around. Others make more appeal.
11
(11) (22/1 -57%) Dark Flame
22
22/1(-57%)
(11) Dark Flame 22/1, Proved that he retains plenty of ability last season, acquitting himself well in trio of course handicaps (one of which was a void race), but Doncaster reappearance display lacked spark.
9
(9) (50/1 -25%) Spider's Bite
50
50/1(-25%)
(9) Spider's Bite 50/1, Winning hurdler who shaped well on chase debut back in December 2018, but lightly-raced since and has failed to complete on 3 of his 4 subsequent starts in this sphere. Hood goes on.
5
(5) (100/1 -150%) As You Like
100
100/1(-150%)
(5) As You Like 100/1, Tends to peak during the summer, as he did last year when adding to his tally at Southwell in July. Little impact on last 5 starts and can only be watched at present.
3
1st (3) (2.5/1 +50%) Eclair Surf
2.5
2.5/1(+50%)
(3) Eclair Surf 2.5/1, Winning pointer/hurdler who confirmed the promise of his chasing debut when scoring at Hereford in December. Came up short off this 8 lb higher mark at Exeter since, but merits respect all the same.
8
2nd (8) (8/1 -60%) Eclair De Guye
8
8/1(-60%)
(8) Eclair De Guye 8/1, Has looked better than ever this term and scored going away at Huntingdon last time, so solid claims despite a hefty rise.
1
3rd (1) (3.6/1 +40%) Bobo Mac
3.6
3.6/1(+40%)
(1) Bobo Mac 3.6/1, Useful chaser who has shaped with encouragement on both outings at Chepstow (sixth in Welsh National last time) and could well make an impact if things drop right.
LTO Selection:
16:15 Sandown Handicap Chase (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(13) Timeless Beauty 4.5/1, Winning Irish pointer who opened her account over hurdles on handicap bow at Ayr (2m5f) last month, well on top at the finish. Appeals as the type to do even better so not taken lightly.
9
(9) (6.5/1 -63%) Land Of Winter
6.5
6.5/1(-63%)
(9) Land Of Winter 6.5/1, Improved to score twice on the Flat in October and encouraging fourth back hurdling after a break in 2m4f Huntingdon novice 58 days ago. Has more to offer on handicap bow so also worth considering.
3
(3) (6.5/1 +19%) Honor Grey
6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(3) Honor Grey 6.5/1, In frame all three starts over hurdles, best run when second of 9 in novice at Ayr (20.4f, heavy) 31 days ago. Steps into handicap with solid claims.
8
(8) (10/1 +50%) Delgany Monarch
10
10/1(+50%)
(8) Delgany Monarch 10/1, Fair form in three novice hurdles this term, twice third before fifth at Fontwell (2m6f) last month. Respected now going into handicaps.
10
(10) (18/1 -29%) Itsnotwhatyouthink
18
18/1(-29%)
(10) Itsnotwhatyouthink 18/1, Runner-up both starts in bumpers and promise both starts over hurdles, not given a hard time when third in 2m4f Plumpton novice latest. Remains type to do better when emphasis is on stamina.
5
(5) (18/1 +55%) Tel'Art
18
18/1(+55%)
(5) Tel'Art 18/1, Improved to bag two handicaps at up to 2¾m this summer but his recent form is much less encouraging, only eighth at Wincanton last time. Falling in the weights but still needs to show more.
11
(11) (20/1 -25%) Henri Le Bon
20
20/1(-25%)
(11) Henri Le Bon 20/1, Fair maiden hurdler who failed to build on reappearance when only sixth at Doncaster (2m4f) in December. Since had wind op and tongue strap on too so could bounce back.
1
1st (1) (3.5/1 +71%) Conkwell Legend
3.5
3.5/1(+71%)
(1) Conkwell Legend 3.5/1, Fairly useful form when third both starts this term in novice hurdles at Fontwell. Open to improvement now going into handicaps so he needs considering.
2
2nd (2) (6.5/1 +46%) Sopran Thor
6.5
6.5/1(+46%)
(2) Sopran Thor 6.5/1, Has progressed with each of his three runs over hurdles, excellent fourth of 14 in novice at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) 40 days ago. More to offer on handicap bow and well in the mix.
12
3rd (12) (8.5/1 -42%) Gastara
8.5
8.5/1(-42%)
(12) Gastara 8.5/1, Yet to make the frame over hurdles but has shaped well with a view to handicaps, again amateur ridden and free-going at Chepstow (19.5f) last time. Interesting now hooded under promising conditional.

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.
