5.5/1(+8%)
(2) Golden Boy Grey 5.5/1, €43,000 3-y-o, Diamond Boy gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners, including fairly useful French hurdler Sevros. In excellent hands and not without interest on breeding so newcomer is worth considering.

Grand Mogul

0.18
0.18/1(+38%)
(1) Grand Mogul 0.18/1, Fairly useful form to land 18f Chepstow novice but only fair fifth in Cheltenham Grade 2 22 days ago. This is far less exacting so will prove hard to beat for yard that has fine record in this race.

Pride Of Pemberley

28
28/1(-75%)
(4) Pride Of Pemberley 28/1, Fair bumper form in 2016/17. Much better effort over hurdles on belated return when never-dangerous fourth in 20f Plumpton novice 19 days ago. Needs lot more still if he's to trouble the favourite.

16/1(-60%)
(3) Mickyh 16/1, €17,000 3-y-o, Sageburg gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, notably useful duo Doctor Duffy and Flash The Steel. Appeals on paper so debutant is not totally dismissed. Market can guide.

Fifty Ball

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(1) Fifty Ball 2.5/1, €60,000 buy after winning pair of French bumpers last autumn. Shaped well in a couple of Fontwell novices prior to making a successful handicap debut at Ascot (19.3f) last time. Has more to offer.

Naizagai

4

(4) Frenchy Du Large 1.88/1, Placed all 4 starts in bumpers (fair form) and took a small step forward from hurdling debut when second in a Uttoxeter maiden (19.9f) 3 weeks ago, keeping on well. Remains unexposed.

Chasamax

3
3/1(+10%)
(2) Chasamax 3/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler who ran his best race when third of 17 in Cheltenham handicap (16.4f) 22 days ago, edged out late on. That form has been franked since, so he seems sure to go well again.

Coastal Drift

40
40/1(-186%)
(5) Coastal Drift 40/1, Showed fair form when third in a Plumpton novice hurdle in January 2019. Not seen since disappointing on handicap debut at Fontwell the following month, but worth a market check all the same.

Allmankind

2
2/1(+20%)
(4) Allmankind 2/1, One of the best juvenile hurdlers around last season and put in a flawless round of jumping when coasting home on chase debut at Warwick. Open to improvement in this sphere and he's the one to beat.
6
2nd (6) Hitman (2.75/1 +0%)
Hitman

2.75
2.75/1(+0%)
(6) Hitman 2.75/1, Hurdles winner for Guillaume Macaire in France and came home in splendid isolation on chase debut for new yard at Ffos Las last month. Armed with plenty of potential and he has to be feared.
5

Ga Law

5.5
5.5/1(+15%)
(5) Ga Law 5.5/1, French recruit who has made a very good impression switched to fences this season, making it 3-3 in this sphere in a Wincanton Grade 2 last month. Probably capable of better still and merits respect.
1
4th (1) Eldorado Allen (3/1 +10%)
Eldorado Allen

3
3/1(+10%)
(1) Eldorado Allen 3/1, Useful over hurdles and perfect start over fences at Newton Abbot in October. Fortuitous winner of a Cheltenham Grade 2 next time (held when left well clear 2 out), but commands respect nonetheless.

11
11/1(+8%)
(2) Phoenix Way 11/1, Winner of 2 of his 4 starts over hurdles and successful start to chase career when landing a 3-runner Warwick novice (2m) 17 days ago. Clearly a smart prospect, but this is a much tougher assignment.

1.38

(5) Politologue 1.38/1, Had no Altior to contend with when resuming winning ways on the biggest stage in the Champion Chase in March, dominating from the outset. Won this in 2017 (bled last year) and should go well.

Greaneteen

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(4) Greaneteen 2.5/1, Lost his unbeaten record over fences with a luckless defeat in the Grand Annual but returned with a huge effort to win the Haldon Gold Cup at Exeter, quickening up well. Could have even more to offer.

Rouge Vif

3
3/1(+33%)
(6) Rouge Vif 3/1, Highly progressive novice chaser who looked very good when demolishing useful field in 2m Cheltenham handicap chase on return. Place claims, though wouldn't want any more rain.

Castlegrace Paddy

10

Doing Fine

7.5
7.5/1(-7%)
(4) Doing Fine 7.5/1, First past the post when this was voided last year. Even better this term, winning at Uttoxeter and a creditable 13 lengths third to Cloudy Glen at Fontwell latest. 12 lb better off with that one now.

Crosspark

5.5
5.5/1(-10%)

Regal Flow

11
11/1(+31%)
(7) Regal Flow 11/1, Midland's National winner in 2018 who returned to form when narrowly denied here in January. Below par next 2 starts but offered plenty of encouragement before dropping away here on return.

Classic Ben

2.25
2.25/1(+36%)
(5) Classic Ben 2.25/1, Winner of 3m handicap here off this mark in February 2019 and creditable second of 18 in handicap chase at Exeter on return. Worth another try over this sort of trip.
1

Cloudy Glen

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(1) Cloudy Glen 2.5/1, Patchy record last season but looked better than ever when making an impressive winning return over a new trip at Fontwell (27.7f) 3 weeks ago. 11 lb higher now but that looks justified.

Pobbles Bay

25

Benson

4.5
4.5/1(+55%)
(8) Benson 4.5/1, Bumper winner who has upped his game over hurdles this term, scoring on both outings. Latest success (at Hereford) has been boosted since, so makes appeal now handicapping in a tongue strap.

Galice Macalo

10

Solo

7.5

5

Nickolson

18

Jolly's Cracked It

9
9/1(-20%)
(6) Jolly's Cracked It 9/1, Fragile 11-y-o but still retains a pretty useful level of ability as indicated by a smooth-travelling fifth at Aintree on reappearance. Drop in trip could suit, so not totally discoutned.
2

Eglantine Du Seuil

12
12/1(-33%)
(2) Eglantine Du Seuil 12/1, Smart hurdler for Willie Mullins and made a reasonable start for new stable when fifth at Wincanton on return. Should be spot on now, so she's an intriguing contender.
3

Totterdown

16

Let The Heirs Walk

80

(10) Let The Heirs Walk 80/1, Useful-looking gelding who defied a penalty after 8 months off to score at Warwick (2m) on return. Underwhelming run in a novice at Hereford subsequently, though and more required back in handicap.

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.
