0.91/1(+27%) | (3) C'Est Le Bonheur 0.91/1, Bumper winner here on Rules debut in 2018. Creditable place efforts all 3 completed starts over hurdles since returning from a lengthy absence this year and should be in the thick of things once more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (1.25/1 -14%) Hurricane Mitch |
1.25/1(-14%) | (5) Hurricane Mitch 1.25/1, Runner-up on second of this 2 starts in bumpers last season and positive start in this sphere when finding just one too good in a Hereford maiden (19.7f) this month. Open to improvement. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (8) (5/1 -25%) Swedishhorsemafia |
5/1(-25%) | (8) Swedishhorsemafia 5/1, Half-brother to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Getaway Katie Mai and fair hurdler Koultas King. Showed ability when fourth on debut in a Hereford bumper and should do better in time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (50/1 +38%) Stitch Up |
50/1(+38%) | (7) Stitch Up 50/1, Well-related son of Milan, but little impact in a bumper or 2 starts over hurdles, well adrift of the second-placed C'Est Le Bonheur when fourth over C&D last time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (1) (33/1 -18%) Ask The Question |
33/1(-18%) | (1) Ask The Question 33/1, Clear-cut winner of sole completed start between the flags in March, but that was a 3-runner affair and he's opposable on Rules debut. Yard also saddles Euro Fou. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (4) (40/1 +20%) Euro Fou |
40/1(+20%) | (4) Euro Fou 40/1, Third on sole start in points last year and didn't cut much ice starting out under Rules recently in a novice hurdle at Hexham. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

1st (1) (2.25/1 +0%) Cybalko |
2.25/1(+0%) | (1) Cybalko 2.25/1, Finally opened his account with cheekpieces refitted over 19.3f here 12 days ago, appearing to benefit from a more positive ride. 7 lb rise fair enough and another bold show likely. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (3.33/1 +33%) Arizona Glory |
3.33/1(+33%) | (3) Arizona Glory 3.33/1, Modest hurdler (0-6 in that sphere), but fair fourth on recent chase debut at Stratford (20.9f) and claims here off 2 lb lower if brushing up in the jumping department. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (14/1 -17%) Roll Of Thunder |
14/1(-17%) | (6) Roll Of Thunder 14/1, Below par all 4 starts this year, but now 1 lb lower than for his latest success at Hexham last October and it'd be no surprise were he to bounce back with conditions in his favour. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (7) (1.88/1 +6%) Gold Fields |
1.88/1(+6%) | (7) Gold Fields 1.88/1, Improved from out of the blue when making it third time lucky over fences at Fakenham (16.3f) last week. Remains to be seen if he can back that up, but big player under a penalty if able to do so. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (4) (20/1 -11%) Go To Court |
20/1(-11%) | (4) Go To Court 20/1, Made good start for this yard when third in handicap chase at Bangor on return in July, but has subsequently failed to build on that. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (5) (66/1 -313%) Mac Cennetig |
66/1(-313%) | (5) Mac Cennetig 66/1, Temperamental sort who won novice handicap chase at Market Rasen in July 2019. Well held both completed starts this year, though, and remains 8 lb above that winning mark. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (125/1 -150%) Connerys Hill |
125/1(-150%) | (8) Connerys Hill 125/1, No show in handful of runs over hurdles and beaten a country mile on recent chase debut at Wetherby. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (14/1 -87%) Captains Run |
14/1(-87%) | (9) Captains Run 14/1, Tongue tie had a positive effect when runner-up twice over 2m at Ffos Las in October. Perhaps shouldn't be judged too harshly on latest effort (went off too hard), but more needed all the same. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (25/1 -108%) Bering Upsun |
25/1(-108%) | (2) Bering Upsun 25/1, Off the mark in a Kelso handicap chase off 3 lb higher mark last October, but hasn't come close to matching that form in 5 subsequent starts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (10) (25/1 +38%) Pc Dixon |
25/1(+38%) | (10) Pc Dixon 25/1, Well held both starts this season, taking record over fences to 0-14. Best to look elsewhere. |

1st (7) (3/1 +14%) The Late Legend |
3/1(+14%) | (7) The Late Legend 3/1, Posted impressive victories over C&D and at Huntingdon last month but never threatened after two mid-race mistakes when fourth back at Huntingdon last time. Sort to bounce back so big player here. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (5/1 +55%) Scoop The Pot |
5/1(+55%) | (4) Scoop The Pot 5/1, Landed 2 staying handicap chases for Philip Hobbs late in 2018. Little recent form since but hinted at revival when seventh in 20f handicap hurdle here last time. Handily weighted so not ruled out. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

2.5/1(-11%) | (5) Nortonthorpelegend 2.5/1, C&D winner who arrives in good form, third of 10 in handicap here 19 days ago. Consistent sort so sure to be in the mix for yard among the winners. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

16/1(+43%) | (9) Derrick D'Anjou 16/1, Modest hurdler who is yet to match that form in 2 runs over fences, plugging on late when a remote fourth over C&D on debut for new stable last month. Others appeal more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (9/1 +25%) Spirit Of Hale |
9/1(+25%) | (10) Spirit Of Hale 9/1, C&D winner who looked rusty on first run for 8 months when tenth in 20f handicap chase at Uttoxeter 25 days ago. Visor/tongue strap back on now but he's unreliable. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (3) (9/1 -29%) Buckled |
9/1(-29%) | (3) Buckled 9/1, Fair winning chaser who got back on track with good reappearance fifth in 3m handicap hurdle at Musselburgh. Back over fences now and must enter calculations. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (2) (10/1 -54%) Skyhill |
10/1(-54%) | (2) Skyhill 10/1, Thrived in the mud last winter, winning 4 handicaps in a row, including over C&D, and not disgraced on return when fading sixth in handicap back here 19 days ago. Should be spot on now so considered. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (11/1 +45%) Chase The Wind |
11/1(+45%) | (1) Chase The Wind 11/1, Veteran scored at Huntingdon (3m) last October but not at best both starts this term, seventh in 3m handicap at Wetherby 24 days ago. Plummeting in the weights but still needs more. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

66/1(-313%) | (8) Imperial Prince 66/1, Winless since 2016 and veteran beat only one on his return in 3m handicap at Ayr. Falling in the weights but still has plenty to prove. |

2nd (2) (2.5/1 +25%) Lord Torranaga |
2.5/1(+25%) | (2) Lord Torranaga 2.5/1, Fair stayer on Flat. Made successful hurdling debut over C&D but possibly found run coming too quickly when only fourth at Musselbugh 20 days ago. May still do better so not written off. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (7/1 +65%) Busy Street |
7/1(+65%) | (3) Busy Street 7/1, Formerly useful Flat stayer but only modest form shown in two runs over hurdles this autumn and when back on level at Kempton on final start for Tony Carroll. Not written off for shrewd yard though. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

6th (1) (22/1 -159%) Black Kraken |
22/1(-159%) | (1) Black Kraken 22/1, Poor on the Flat but proved a different proposition over hurdles when winning 17f novice at Cartmel in August. Modest eighth at Hexham only run since so needs to bounce back. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (11) (200/1 -60%) Wheelbahri |
200/1(-60%) | (11) Wheelbahri 200/1, Yet to show any promise in three runs over hurdles, 300/1 when pulled up in novice at Kelso (22.7f) 17 days ago. Others much preferred. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

250/1(-25%) | (12) Snowy Burrows 250/1, Unseated early (when hooded) on only start in France and behind both runs over hurdles for new yard. May still do better in handicaps. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

50/1(+0%) | (10) Urban Spirit 50/1, Modest stayer on the Flat but arrives on back of poor run at Southwell last month. Yet to complete over hurdles so has questions to answer returned to this code. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (7) (250/1 -25%) Hey Blondie |
250/1(-25%) | (7) Hey Blondie 250/1, Has shown very little in bumper here and (250/1 and hooded) when tenth of 11 in novice over C&D on hurdles bow 12 days ago. Very hard to enthuse over. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

1/1(+17%) | (3) Equus Dancer 1/1, Fairly useful dual bumper winner who went backwards after a positive start over hurdles. However, improved when making a winning chase bow at Sedgefield on return and should have more to offer. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

4/1(+11%) | (2) Onthefrontfoot 4/1, Added a couple of victories over hurdles (at 2m/17f) to his point/bumper wins last season and good third on chase bow at Ludlow on return. More needed again off this mark, however. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

4/1(-45%) | (1) Slanelough 4/1, Dual hurdle winner. Still without a win over fences but has shaped well all 3 starts this season and has plenty of experience in this sphere compared to his rivals. Tongue strap on 1st time. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (14/1 +0%) Ladronne |
14/1(+0%) | (4) Ladronne 14/1, Notched a pair of handicap hurdle wins on soft ground last winter. Low-key start over fences at Carlisle on return but should do better at some point. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

14/1(+58%) | (13) Sincerely Resdev 14/1, Course winner who has offered little since that breakthrough win in February, beating only one in 20f handicap here on final run for Phil Kirby. Lots to prove for his new handler. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

4/1(-20%) | (10) Evita Du Mesnil 4/1, Triple French bumper winner in 2018 who caused a shock on first run since leaving Dr Richard Newland when 80/1 winner of 2m Hexham handicap 18 days ago. Up 4 lb but she's still much respected. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

100/1(-525%) | (4) Deauville Society 100/1, Ex-Irish hurdler who remains a maiden after 17 runs, below-par fifth in 18f Downpatrick handicap in September. Has plenty to prove on yard debut. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (7/1 +7%) Cuba Ruba |
7/1(+7%) | (1) Cuba Ruba 7/1, Modest 12f Flat winner who has been brought along steadily, sixth of 11 in novice hurdle (9/1) over C&D 12 days ago. Into handicaps now and capable of better so he's well worth considering. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (16/1 +60%) Strong Team |
16/1(+60%) | (11) Strong Team 16/1, Dual 2m hurdle winner in 2018 but he has largely offered little since, remote seventh of 11 in handicap over C&D 12 days ago. Readily passed over. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

50/1(-25%) | (14) Instingtive 50/1, Successful in 20f Carlisle handicap on final run of 2018/19 campaign but well below that level since, pulled up in 20f handicap chase at Perth on return. Back over hurdles with questions to answer. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

3.5/1(+13%) | (8) Tardree 3.5/1, Point winner. 8/1 and hooded, no match for a promising sort on his C&D Rules debut last month but he did see off 10 other rivals. Likely to be thereabouts. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (6) (5.5/1 +8%) Risk D'argent |
5.5/1(+8%) | (6) Risk D'argent 5.5/1, Sent off second favourite when falling in Larkhill maiden point in March. Stable back among winners in recent weeks. Another for whom market should provide more clues. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (2.75/1 +73%) Northern Falcon |
2.75/1(+73%) | (5) Northern Falcon 2.75/1, Kayf Tara gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler Augusta Kate out of unbeaten bumper winner/very smart hurdler Feathard Lady. Brian Hughes up for debut. Betting should guide. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (1.5/1 -105%) Dobryn |
1.5/1(-105%) | (1) Dobryn 1.5/1, 14/1, winning debut on soft ground at Hereford last month. Stable has been in excellent form since and there's every chance he can defy a penalty. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (80/1 -471%) Fabuleux Du Clos |
80/1(-471%) | (3) Fabuleux Du Clos 80/1, 16/1, beaten just over 20 lengths when third on Newcastle debut in March and he'll need to step up a fair bit on that bare form to play a leading role on his return. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (80/1 -60%) Skipness |
80/1(-60%) | (7) Skipness 80/1, Desideratum gelding. Dam 2½m hurdle winner. Stable 0-26 in bumpers in last 5 seasons so watching has to be the percentage call. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (22/1 +45%) More Beer |
22/1(+45%) | (4) More Beer 22/1, €5,000 Westerner gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdlers Dahills Hill and Mossy White. Worth a precautionary market check for a stable which has had a few run well on the Flat of late. | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||

25/1(-150%) | (2) Cheeky Ches 25/1, 40/1, showed ability when third of 9 on C&D debut in September but the form has taken a couple of knocks since. This doesn't look the deepest bumper but he'll still need to improve to go close. |

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.
