---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (1) (13/2 +7%) Horn Cape |
13/2(+7%) | (1) Horn Cape 13/2, Back on track for this yard when successful over C&D and at Hexham in March. Not in quite the same form since but presumably failed to take to fences last time and he's back to the mark he defied at Hexham. Soft-ground C&D winner who could go well now back over hurdles and on a slow surface. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (9/4 +59%) For Three |
9/4(+59%) | (8) For Three 9/4, Successful twice for James Ewart in summer of 2021. Largely below par for Mark Weatherer since but has joined a shrewd outfit and needs keeping a close eye on in the market as he's potentially very well handicapped. Has a first-time tongue tie added to cheekpieces. Has been struggling; on reduced mark and interesting on stable debut, especially if backed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (10/3 +33%) El Jefe |
10/3(+33%) | (7) El Jefe 10/3, Sole win from 21 hurdle starts came over C&D in 2021. Arrives on the back of a creditable second of 15 at Kelso 12 days and he'll be thereabouts if in similar form. Poor strike-rate but sole win came over C&D & he ran well last time; could be thereabouts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (16/1 -129%) Prince Nino |
16/1(-129%) | (3) Prince Nino 16/1, Won twice over 2½m at Perth at the end of the summer. Possibly unsuited by very testing ground when well held back there 6 weeks ago. Up and down this season but has posted two wins and not ruled out in a change of headgear. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (16/1 +0%) Belle Na Bann |
16/1(+0%) | (10) Belle Na Bann 16/1, Won handicaps at Fontwell/Newton Abbot for Neil Mulholland last summer. Also runner-up twice for this stable at the start of the year but below form when last seen in June. 2 lb out of handicap. Second twice in a row early this year but hasn't shone on her 3 starts since (latest June). |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (2) (7/1 -27%) My Brother Jack |
7/1(-27%) | (2) My Brother Jack 7/1, Modest Flat winner. Similar standard over hurdles, showing he can be competitive from this sort of mark when third of 9 at Market Rasen (18.5f, good to soft) last time. 0-7 over hurdles but has run pretty well the last twice and might not be far away. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (15/2 -50%) Sawpit Sienna |
15/2(-50%) | (6) Sawpit Sienna 15/2, Successful twice during the first half of last season and also second at Wincanton in March. Should be sharper for last month's Worcester reappearance and she's back on a workable mark. Respected in refitted headgear. Down the field on comeback but improved for last season's reappearance to win next time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (9) (11/1 -10%) Balranald |
11/1(-10%) | (9) Balranald 11/1, Successful over fences here 2021 and finally opened his account over hurdles in a Bangor handicap in May. Creditable placed efforts at Kelso and over C&D in recent months and should be competitive again. The forecast soft ground is a concern but he's in good form; claims if conditions suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (28/1 -155%) Hide Out |
28/1(-155%) | (5) Hide Out 28/1, A 24-race maiden in Ireland but still one to note in the betting now setting out for a new stable after 6 months off (has had wind surgery). Longstanding maiden in Ireland; wind op prior to this stable debut; market check advised. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (4) (40/1 -264%) Edgar Allan Poe |
40/1(-264%) | (4) Edgar Allan Poe 40/1, Seven-time winner on the Flat who got off the mark in this sphere in 2m handicap at Catterick in January. Creditable third over C&D next time but absent since a lesser run back here in April. Below last winning mark; check the betting, but he may need this first outing since April. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
The 5lb claim of William Maggs could certainly aid the prospects of MY BROTHER JACK, whose form over C&D reads 223 and another bold bid is expected on his return to this venue. He is preferred to previous Sedgefield winner El Jefe, who put in an improved effort at Kelso on his latest run but the loss of Conor Rabbitt's 5lb claim in this conditional jockeys' contest will not help his cause. It should be noted if For Three attracts market interest on his debut for the in-form Sam England yard as the change of stable and the application of a tongue-tie for the first time may bring about some improvement.
SAWPIT SIENNA probably needed the outing on her reappearance and, with the headgear combination she wore to good effect last season back in place, is taken to bounce back to form and take advantage of a mark only 1 lb higher than the one she defied at Taunton in January. El Jefe gained his only win over C&D and was a good second at Kelso recently so he's second choice. For Three is dangerously well treated and would also come into it if the betting vibes are strong on first run for Sam England.

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (11) (11/4 +66%) Thank You Blue |
11/4(+66%) | (11) Thank You Blue 11/4, Third on debut in a Wincanton bumper in January 2022. Failed to build on that in a first-time tongue strap (retained) back from 11 months off at Chepstow last December, but he's nevertheless worth a second look now sent hurdling for new yard. Remote second in Chepstow bumper latest; still one to consider for new yard now hurdling. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (3/1 -33%) Langton Wold |
3/1(-33%) | (4) Langton Wold 3/1, Fair Flat winner who performed to a similar level when runner-up on his first start in this sphere over C&D (good to soft) last month. Probably won't need to improve much on that in order to go one better. Fair on the Flat; promising debut second over C&D 29 days ago; holds leading form claims. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (8/1 +0%) Coup De Coeur |
8/1(+0%) | (1) Coup De Coeur 8/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler/chaser in France, but he was beating a retreat when falling 3 out back from a 16-month absence for new yard at Wetherby. Fairly useful in France; off 16 months before fell 3 out at Wetherby; may strip fitter. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (80/1 -567%) Mafia Power |
80/1(-567%) | (5) Mafia Power 80/1, Fair performer on the Flat (stays 1½m), latest success registered in a Wolverhampton handicap in January. Sold from Archie Watson's yard for just 5,000 gns during the spring and opposable on this hurdles debut. Fair Flat winner for Archie Watson; off since spring; needs to hit ground running. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (2/1 +27%) Professor Klump |
2/1(+27%) | (8) Professor Klump 2/1, Fetched €62,000 as a 3-y-o and placed on the second of his 2 starts between the flags. Has undergone a wind op ahead of this Rules debut and it'll be interesting to see what the market has to say. Third in an Irish point and in good hands so merits respect on the back of a wind op. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (10/1 -43%) Mister Moodles |
10/1(-43%) | (6) Mister Moodles 10/1, Made the frame both starts in bumpers last season, showing enough to suggest that he could be competitive in a race of this nature if taking to hurdles at the first attempt. Shortlisted. In the frame in bumpers at Newcastle/Kelso; off eight months but considered now hurdling. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (7) (33/1 -32%) Passengerontheship |
33/1(-32%) | (7) Passengerontheship 33/1, Placed in an Irish point, but made a low-key start over hurdles at Uttoxeter last month and he's probably more of a long-term project. Placed in Irish point but last on debut over hurdles at Uttoxeter; big step forward needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (14/1 +44%) Dudley's Bar |
14/1(+44%) | (2) Dudley's Bar 14/1, Regressive on the Flat, but showed a bit in a couple of maiden hurdles for Colm Murphy in Ireland. Not without each-way hope on debut for new yard. Fair ex-Irish maiden; changed hands for £3,5000 and he's not ruled out for his new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (12) (40/1 -300%) Jazz Samba |
40/1(-300%) | (12) Jazz Samba 40/1, Fair handicapper on the Flat, winner of a 7.5f handicap at Beverley in May and good second at Wetherby when last seen the following month. Stamina has to be taken on trust now switched to hurdles. Fair 7.5f Flat winner this summer but off since June; market can guide on hurdling debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (3) (40/1 -100%) Jake Stevens |
40/1(-100%) | (3) Jake Stevens 40/1, Failed to threaten both starts between the flags during the spring and probably best watched on Rules debut. Maiden pointer and lot more is needed now going hurdling; others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (250/1 -279%) Strip Light |
250/1(-279%) | (10) Strip Light 250/1, No show both starts in this sphere in 2020 and, having offered little in a handful of appearances on the Flat last year, he's readily passed over starting out for new yard here following 11 months off. Cut little ice both hurdling starts in Ireland in 2020; lots more needed on stable debut.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (150/1 -275%) Protector Pete |
150/1(-275%) | (9) Protector Pete 150/1, Haafhd colt. Half-brother to useful hurdler/fair chaser Petrastar. Dam, ungenuine 2½m hurdle winner. Doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner on paper. £800 yearling; betting can prove good indicator for son of Haafhd on his hurdling debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Previous Flat winner LANGTON WOLD made a pleasing NH debut when second to It's A Love Thing over C&D 29 days ago and is selected to go one better. Patiently ridden, he made good headway to hold every chance at the last hurdle and was only beaten half a length, with subsequent winner Western Soldier a head further back in third. Both Mister Moodles and Thank You Blue have shown promise in bumpers and could prove the main threats, but they are making their hurdle debuts after absences of 265 and 317 days respectively.
It was probably a stronger race than this in which LANGTON WOLD was runner-up on hurdles debut over C&D and he is the clear pick. Professor Klump showed ability between the flags and could be the one to make a race of it with the selection, while Mister Moodles and Thank You Blue can do battle for minor honours.

1st (6) (5/2 +38%) Onestepatatime |
5/2(+38%) | (6) Onestepatatime 5/2, Won twice over C&D in January and only narrowly failed to complete a hat-trick back here in March. Sharper for a reappearance run over hurdles at Kelso last month and much respected with cheekpieces back on at a venue which suits. Two-time C&D scorer; creditable hurdles 4th at Kelso on return; very much one to consider. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (6/1 +14%) Motion In Limine |
6/1(+14%) | (2) Motion In Limine 6/1, Fair hurdler. Solid start to his chase career when second at Cartmel in August but ran no sort of race at Stratford a fortnight later. 2nd on chase debut at Cartmel but pulled up at Stratford since; needs to get back on track. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (25/1 -39%) Crixus's Escape |
25/1(-39%) | (4) Crixus's Escape 25/1, Runner-up twice off significantly higher marks in early 2022 but struggled badly last season and it remains to be seen whether a 6-month break sparks a revival. Ended last term well out of sorts; lots more is required on his return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (2/1 +0%) Dragonfruit |
2/1(+0%) | (3) Dragonfruit 2/1, Added to his good record fresh when striking on his 3m Uttoxeter reappearance in September. The fact he soon lost his form last season raises doubts about him backing that up but he retains handicapping scope on his best form. Returned with success at Uttoxeter but unreliable so needs to back it up off 6lb higher. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (5) (10/1 -100%) Fortcanyon |
10/1(-100%) | (5) Fortcanyon 10/1, Pair of handicap hurdle wins at up to 3m earlier in the year. Point background provides hope he'll take to fences but peak fitness has to be taken on trust after 6 months off. Dual hurdle winner last season; he needs considering now going over fences. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (1) (10/3 -21%) Light Flicker |
10/3(-21%) | (1) Light Flicker 10/3, Fair winning chaser who was a creditable seventh of 19 in a Cheltenham handicap on his reappearance. That was a very competitive Class 3 and he should have a big say back in calmer waters. C&D scorer; encouraging seventh at Cheltenham 13 days ago; big shout eased 1lb.. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
DRAGONFRUIT made the most of a falling handicap mark to register an all-the-way success on his seasonal debut at Uttoxeter. A 6lb rise plus a 2lb reduction in Toby Wynne's claim may not be enough to prevent a repeat performance. Onestepatatime was successful twice over fences at his venue last season and her reappearance in a Kelso handicap hurdle 12 days ago should have sharpened her up for this return to the larger obstacles. Two-time winning hurdler Fortcanyon cannot be written off on his chase debut despite a 197-day absence.
LIGHT FLICKER should find this less demanding than the big-field Cheltenham handicap he contested on his reappearance and is taken to get his head back in front under Brian Hughes. C&D specialist Onestepatatime should be spot on for this after a spin over hurdles last month and is second choice ahead of Uttoxeter winner Dragonfruit.

1st (1) (Evens +43%) Tom Creen |
Evens(+43%) | (1) Tom Creen Evens, Better than ever when making a winning return here (21f) 18 days ago, enhancing his fine course record in the process. Big shout despite 6 lb rise. Dual C&D winner and a stylish course scorer latest; another bold showing is on the cards. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (7/1 +18%) Zuckerberg |
7/1(+18%) | (7) Zuckerberg 7/1, Last win came here a year ago but below form since. Off 7 months. Course winner but he ended last term well below par; others appeal more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (13/2 -8%) Coolmoyne |
13/2(-8%) | (8) Coolmoyne 13/2, Still looking for first win but has proved consistent over fences, making the frame again when reeled in close home over C&D on return. Not beaten far when fifth of 6 at Carlisle (15.9f, soft) since and enters calculations. Yet to register a victory but he arrives in good nick; one for the shortlist eased 1lb. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (22/1 -38%) Contre Ordre |
22/1(-38%) | (4) Contre Ordre 22/1, Fairly useful chaser in France but yet to fire on these shores. Remains opposable despite easing mark. A fairly useful hurdles/chase scorer in France but yet to match that form for current yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (2) (8/1 +20%) Beat The Edge |
8/1(+20%) | (2) Beat The Edge 8/1, Belatedly off the mark when taking 5-runner handicap chase (5/2) at Wetherby (15.2f, soft) in March but never on terms here following month. Off 6 months. Others more persuasive. Won at Wetherby but only fifth here after; needs to hit the ground running on his return. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (33/1 -50%) Gouet Des Bruyeres |
33/1(-50%) | (3) Gouet Des Bruyeres 33/1, Three-time winner over fences, the latest at Southwell (2m) 14 months ago but was out of form when last seen in the summer and subsequently sold from Oliver Greenall & Josh Guerriero for £6,000 in September. Three-time chase winner but form nosedived this summer; needs to bounce back for new yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (17/2 -70%) Morandi Second |
17/2(-70%) | (5) Morandi Second 17/2, Fair French maiden on the Flat. More polished on third hurdles start switched to a handicap when second at Doncaster but unable to build on that next 2 starts, including on return. Makes chase debut. Tongue strap on for 1st time. May strip fitter for his reappearance eighth at Perth; not dismissed going handicapping. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (6) (50/1 -100%) Fromposttopillar |
50/1(-100%) | (6) Fromposttopillar 50/1, Didn't offer a great deal in trio of maiden/novice hurdles at around 20f during second half of last season. Switch to chasing/handicaps needs to have positive effect on return. Cut little ice in three starts over hurdles last term; lots more needed going into h'caps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (14/1 -56%) Brickadank |
14/1(-56%) | (11) Brickadank 14/1, Came close to breaking his long-standing maiden status in 5-runner handicap chase (20.1f) at Newcastle in April. Disappointed at Southwell the following month but should come on for his return here 4 weeks ago. 0-27 but wasn't disgraced when fourth over C&D latest; no forlorn hope off 2lb lower. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (28/1 -100%) Ballintogher Boy |
28/1(-100%) | (9) Ballintogher Boy 28/1, Off the mark at Newcastle in March 2022. Just denied here (26.9f) on return last season but well held at Newcastle since. Off 11 months. Scored at Newcastle early in 2022 but he's been off for 11 months since pulled up there. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (10) (66/1 -100%) Glory |
66/1(-100%) | (10) Glory 66/1, Poor maiden handicap hurdler. Successful in point in February but pulled up in hunter chase at Carlisle (24.5f, soft, 150/1) on debut over fences. Off 7 months. Maiden hurdler who offered little on his chasing debut when pulled up at Carlisle in March. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
Three-time course winner TOM CREEN is taken to enhance his fine Sedgefield record with another victory. A 6lb rise in the handicap makes his task more arduous than when winning in good style 18 days ago but with many of his opponents making their seasonal reappearance, his match-fitness could be a decisive advantage. Coolmoyne remains a maiden after 14 runs but came within a neck of getting off the mark over C&D two outings ago and rates the main danger. Morandi Second showed promise as a juvenile hurdler and has a tongue-tie fitted for the first time on his chase debut.
TOM CREEN enhanced his fine record at this track when making a winning return last month and looks capable of defying a 6 lb rise. Coolmoyne is feared most, with Brickadank best of the others.

1st (1) (2/13 +50%) Supremely West |
2/13(+50%) | (1) Supremely West 2/13, Unbeaten in bumpers and stepped up on hurdling debut to open his account in this sphere in a novice at Carlisle 3 weeks ago. Firmly expected to follow up. Easily landed 2m1f Carlisle novice; excellent claims despite conceding weight all round. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (7) (25/1 -178%) Toscan Genius |
25/1(-178%) | (7) Toscan Genius 25/1, Modest form at best on Flat for Ivan Furtado, raced up to around 1½m. Would be an unlikely winner on hurdles debut. Modest 1m4f Flat winner; possibilities now going hurdling. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (40/1 +39%) Fly Awhile Johnny |
40/1(+39%) | (4) Fly Awhile Johnny 40/1, Modest maiden on the Flat and not much promise to date over hurdles. Remote fourth in 2m4f Hexham novice on his first go over hurdles 26 days ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (17/2 +29%) Classic Maestro |
17/2(+29%) | (2) Classic Maestro 17/2, €25,000 3-y-o, £5,000 5-y-o, Jet Away gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to 19f bumper winner/fairly useful hurdle winner up to 23f Present In Court. Placed on last of 3 starts in Irish points (Jan 29). Jet Away gelding; placed in an Irish point so this rules newcomer needs considering. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (150/1 -127%) Swift Reply |
150/1(-127%) | (6) Swift Reply 150/1, Unseated in a point and limited encouragement so far over hurdles. Modest form shown in his two starts over hurdles; he may still do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (80/1 -220%) Hang On |
80/1(-220%) | (8) Hang On 80/1, Out of a bumper winner but has looked like more of a long-term project on both hurdling runs. Offered little in bumpers at Newcastle and here; goes hurdling with lots more required. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (5) (6/1 +14%) Magical Arthur |
6/1(+14%) | (5) Magical Arthur 6/1, Imposing sort who showed a bit to work on when third of 11 in a novice at Wetherby (19.7f, good) on hurdles bow 22 days ago. Could do better. Hinted at promise on his hurdling debut when third at Wetherby; he can build on it now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (50/1 -100%) Endofconversation |
50/1(-100%) | (3) Endofconversation 50/1, Beaten 20 lengths by only finisher in a point and pulled up in a novice at Hexham on hurdling debut. Others make more appeal. Pulled up on his hurdling debut in novice at Hexham; tongue tied now and may do better. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
SUPREMELY WEST is extremely likely to prove a warm order in this contest after opening his account in some style at Carlisle last month. Dr Richard Newland's gelding is hard to oppose and he looks more than capable of defying a 7lb winner's penalty. Magical Arthur offered something to work with on his third-placed hurdling debut at Wetherby in October and may give the selection most to think about, ahead of Classic Maestro, who boasts a pointing background.
SUPREMELY WEST made it 4 from 5 under Rules when landing a novice hurdle at Carlisle last time and he's firmly expected to add to his tally here. Magical Arthur looks the only feasible danger on form.

1st (3) (11/1 -230%) Special Rate |
11/1(-230%) | (3) Special Rate 11/1, Showed a bit in bumpers and improved for the switch to hurdles this year, getting off the mark at the second attempt at Newcastle in May. Followed up at Cartmel later the same month, before completing the hat-trick on chase debut at Hexham (20.1f) in June. Leading contender. Arrives on the up and made winning chasing debut at Hexham; more to offer; big player. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (11/4 +54%) Fils De Roi |
11/4(+54%) | (5) Fils De Roi 11/4, Won claiming hurdle at Auteuil in September last year before easily following up in Huntingdon juvenile on stable debut. Creditable fifth in handicap back in France in May and, although he didn't show much in 2 chase starts for his previous yard, he could yet do better over fences. Ex-French winner; showed promise over fences there too so considered back in this sphere. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (7/2 +13%) Cerendipity |
7/2(+13%) | (2) Cerendipity 7/2, Built on the promise of his hurdling debut when opening account in a Catterick novice (19.3f) in January and good effort when second at Wetherby next time. Well held in the EBF Final at Sandown when last seen (has had another wind op since), but he has plenty of potential as a chaser. Fairly useful winning form over hurdles; chasing type so rates an interesting debutant. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (8) (25/1 +0%) Parelliroc |
25/1(+0%) | (8) Parelliroc 25/1, Showed more than in bumpers when fourth in novice at Catterick (19.3f) on his hurdling/seasonal debut. However, his form has gone the wrong way since, finishing well held sent handicapping at Wetherby in March. Off 8 months (has had another wind op) ahead of his chase bow. Failed to go on in four runs over hurdles; needs wind op to spark improvement now chasing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (13/2 -18%) Upagainstit |
13/2(-18%) | (7) Upagainstit 13/2, Runner-up sole start in Irish points and improved on his hurdles form when making a winning start in this sphere at Warwick (16.2f) in March. Fell at the last at Haydock next time (distant third at the time), but no surprise to see him bounce back on his return. Winning chasing debut at Warwick but failed to build on it at Haydock; may still do better. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (5/1 +29%) Dream Jet |
5/1(+29%) | (6) Dream Jet 5/1, Placed in an Irish point and left his previous form under Rules behind when landing a Stratford maiden hurdle on second start for current yard in August. Lesser effort in handicap at this course (19.8f) last month, though lost a shoe. Could get back on track switched to chasing. Won at Stratford but only sixth here since; can't be discounted on first go over fences. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (150/1 -971%) Goodbye Someday |
150/1(-971%) | (4) Goodbye Someday 150/1, Struggled in 3 outings this summer following an 11-month absence, pulled up over hurdles at Killarney in July. Now makes his first run for yard after leaving John Queally with cheekpieces applied. Well handicapped on old form back over fences, so he's worth a market check. Offered little in 3 runs for John Queally this summer; something to prove for his new yard. |

|PU| (1) (7/2 +13%) Findthetime |
7/2(+13%) | (1) Findthetime 7/2, Progressive over hurdles in his novice campaign, completing a hat-trick at Wetherby on his final start of the season. Good second back at Wetherby (19.7f) in October last year, but not in the same form on his subsequent 3 starts. Needs to get back on the up sent chasing. A three-time hurdles winner but failed to go on last term; not ruled out sent chasing. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Special Rate made his chasing debut at Hexham in June a winning one, completing a hat-trick in the process, although Philip Kirby's gelding will need to jump with more fluency to extended his current winning streak today. With that in mind, it may be worth taking a chance on useful hurdler FILS DE ROI. The four-year-old ran with credit in fifth on his latest outing in a Listed race in France and receives a handy 9lb weight-for-age allowance on his chasing bow, which may be enough for him to land the spoils. Cerendipity warrants consideration entering this discipline too.
Having won back-to-back hurdles in May, SPECIAL RATE completed his hat-trick on chase debut at Hexham the following month and he can score again with improvement to come in this sphere. Upagainstit also made a winning start over fences and he can leave a lesser effort behind on his return, with Fils de Roi another who enters calculations.

1st (12) (11/1 -29%) Joie De Vivre |
11/1(-29%) | (12) Joie De Vivre 11/1, Flat winner last season but hasn't made much impact back over hurdles on her last 3 starts, failing to meet expectations when third of 6 behind Solway Molly at Hexham (20.1f) last time. Lurks on a dangerous mark, though. A fair 1m6f Flat winner who arrives in decent nick; this course winner can't be ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (50/1 -150%) Line In The Sand |
50/1(-150%) | (4) Line In The Sand 50/1, Showed more than she did in her sole bumper sent hurdling when sixth of 18 in maiden at Punchestown (22f) on final start for David Kenneth Budds. Unsuited by dropping in trip when well held both outings for current yard, so she could have more to offer now handicapping. Brought along steadily; can take step forward now h'capping with stamina drawn out more. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (10) (14/1 +44%) Poetria |
14/1(+44%) | (10) Poetria 14/1, Modest form at best over hurdles so far and offered little in handicaps last season, pulled up on 2 of her 3 outings. Mark continues to fall but she has enough to prove after 7 months off. Remains a maiden and she ended last season out of form; needs to take a big step forward. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (14) (10/1 +29%) Harkangel |
10/1(+29%) | (14) Harkangel 10/1, Showed a bit when making the frame in maiden hurdles on her first 2 starts, but never competitive on handicap debut when well held at Southwell (2m) in February. Step up in trip should suit as she returns from 9 months off. Beat only one on h'cap debut at Southwell 9 months ago; bred to be suited by this trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (6/1 +25%) Emily Wade |
6/1(+25%) | (8) Emily Wade 6/1, Made second handicap start a winning one at Southwell (20.4f) in March and placed on her next 4 outings. After 3 months off, looked rusty when well-beaten third at Huntingdon last month, so she could fare better with that behind her. Below par after 3 months off when third at Huntingdon 30 days ago; she should build on it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (7/2 +42%) Solway Molly |
7/2(+42%) | (6) Solway Molly 7/2, Bumper winner who got off the mark at the ninth attempt in this sphere when making all in Hexham handicap (20.1f) on her penultimate start. Headed only late on when runner-up at Carlisle on her latest outing and she could make another bold bid. Won at Hexham before very good second at Carlisle; up 3lb but must enter calculations. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (9) (20/1 -122%) Dot Cotton |
20/1(-122%) | (9) Dot Cotton 20/1, Still looking for her first win but again showed promise when fourth in handicap at Perth (20.2f) in September, patiently ridden in a falsely-run race. Has eased further in the weights so she's capable of getting involved. Yet to get her head in front but she arrives in good nick; shortlisted off easing mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (13) (8/1 +56%) Just Hannah |
8/1(+56%) | (13) Just Hannah 8/1, Point winner who has yet to click for current yard but again shaped as if more of a test will suit when ninth of 12 in handicap at this course (19.8f) last time, making late headway. One to keep an eye on from her falling mark. Hinted at promise when staying-on ninth here latest; possibilities back at longer trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (18/1 -50%) Callin Baton Rouge |
18/1(-50%) | (5) Callin Baton Rouge 18/1, Some encouragement when third on hurdling debut at Cartmel (17.2f) in May. However, failed to build on that next time and has failed to complete on her last 2 starts (chase debut on first occasion). Cheekpieces now reached for. Has failed to kick on since making an encouraging hurdling debut third at Cartmel in May. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (7) (8/1 +20%) You Some Girl |
8/1(+20%) | (7) You Some Girl 8/1, Fair bumper winner who needed a stronger gallop when mid-field in Wetherby maiden on hurdles bow in April. Well held both starts since, but off 6 months prior to her latest outing so she's not discounted as she goes up in trip for her handicap bow. Not disgraced after six months off when seventh at Hexham; can take a step forward now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (20/1 -100%) Cailin Dearg |
20/1(-100%) | (2) Cailin Dearg 20/1, Recorded back-to-back wins at this course (19.8f) in December 2021 and made the frame on her next 3 starts. However, well held at Perth when last seen and off for 18 months since, so she's entitled to be better for the run. Dual course winner but has 18-month absence to overcome; market can prove a good guide. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (7/2 +13%) Bridget Breeze |
7/2(+13%) | (1) Bridget Breeze 7/2, From a good family and made a successful start in a Kelso bumper last season. Shaped encouragingly sent hurdling at Ayr in March and was found to have bled when runner-up at Wetherby next time. Major player with improvement to come on her handicap debut. On the up, very good Wetherby 2nd in March; player now going into handicaps. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (40/1 -186%) Le Fou's Keep |
40/1(-186%) | (11) Le Fou's Keep 40/1, Maiden hurdler but exceeded expectations on her second start of the season when third in maiden at this course (19.8f, 300/1) last month. Task is now to build on her latest effort returned to handicap company. Creditable third in novice here last month; she needs to back it up now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (66/1 -450%) Darsi's Darling |
66/1(-450%) | (3) Darsi's Darling 66/1, Modest form when third in bumper on debut and matched that level at the third attempt over hurdles, filling the same position in mares novice at this course (19.8f) in January. Needs to take a step forward sent handicapping on her return. Good third in novice here nine months ago; she needs considering on her handicap debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
SOLWAY MOLLY looked set to complete a double before being collared in the dying strides at Carlisle a fortnight ago. Lisa Harrison's mare looks fairly treated racing off a 3lb higher mark in this contest and compensation could await. Handicap debutant Bridget Breeze has displayed enough ability in her qualifying runs to enter the reckoning and she isn't taken lightly, while Emily Wade may strip fitter for her third-placed return at Huntingdon last month.
BRIDGET BREEZE made an encouraging start over hurdles when third at Ayr in March and, having had an excuse on her following outing, she remains capable of better as she goes handicapping on her return. The 6-y-o is taken to get the better of Solway Molly, who can give another good account in her current form, while Emily Wade also merits consideration.

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.
