16:35 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

0.83/1 (2) WALK IN CLOVER has the highest chance of doing well based on the summary.

Walk In Clover has been put up 11lb for future races by the handicapper, meaning that even with a 7lb penalty here, she is still effectively 4lb well in at the weights. She seems likely to go well but she may not be able to cope with MIDNIGHT MARY, who was only beaten half a length in a better race at Warwick in March, and racing off the same mark here. She may have too may gears for these, leaving Western Jill as a tentative suggestion to chase them home.

WESTERN JILL is interesting starting out over fences and could be the way to go over Midnight Mary and Cheltenham-winner Walk In Clover (no banker to back that up over this longer trip).

Off an unchanged mark and with longer to recover, MIDNIGHT MARY can capitalise if this comes too soon for Walk In Clover.

17:10 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary, 2.5/1 (4) JOLY MAKER Stratford and 3/1 (3) LUCKOFTHEDRAW seem to be the strongest contenders. 2.5/1 (4) JOLY MAKER Stratford has won his latest race despite being a heavy underdog and has a good track record at Stratford. On the other hand, 3/1 (3) LUCKOFTHEDRAW has been successful in handicap chases in the past and has recently returned to form. 9/1 (1) SOMEKINDOFSTAR and 8.5/1 (5) HERE WE HAVE IT could also potentially perform well, but they need to overcome recent poor form. The other horses have either not been successful in recent races or have not had enough recent performances to gauge their form accurately.

Here We Have It represents the stable who won this last year and although he won here over two miles in December, he has been pulled up on both starts since and it may be sensible to look elsewhere. JOLY MAKER is inclined to arrive late on the scene in his races, making it difficult for the handicapper to get to grips with his true ability, and following a one-length success at Stratford last time out, he arrives in good form. He may follow up off 4lb higher, while Luckofthedraw is the pick for third spot.

In a light 2022/23 campaign, JOLY MAKER has recorded two wins at Stratford from 3 starts and this strong-travelling type can score again on his second run back following a 7-month absence. Luckofthedraw has been in good form of late and could be the main danger, with Quid Pro Quo completing the shortlist on his handicap hurdle debut.

If anyone is going to deny Joly Maker it may be the still well-treated LUCKOFTHEDRAW, assuming the errors are kept in check.

17:40 Southwell NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

Based on the information provided, 3/1 (4) CALL THE DANCE and 10/1 (3) BETHPAGE seem to have the best chances of performing well in their next races. 3/1 (4) CALL THE DANCE has shown promise in previous races and is closely related to successful horses, while 10/1 (3) BETHPAGE showed potential in a competitive event on debut and is expected to improve. However, other horses such as 11/1 (9) MALAGO ROSE and 11/1 (8) LUCKY ROSE cannot be completely ruled out.

Lucky Rose showed promise with a second at Lingfield and a fourth here in March, but she was beaten 16 lengths on the latter occasion and will need to do more here. Young At Heart ran well on her only start when third at Fakenham and she may prove to be the biggest danger to CALL THE DANCE. Fourth on her sole start at Ludlow, she encountered trouble in running that day and will have learned from the experience, which she could put to good use here.

CALL THE DANCE is well bred and left the impression she'd improve for her debut at Ludlow in January, so a chance is taken on her to see off Young At Heart, who also made an encouraging start. Bethpage is the pick of the remainder.

Call The Dance should be more streetwise today but BETHPAGE made a promising start in a better race at Newbury.

18:15 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

2/1 (10) WHITE RHINO Improver looks like a strong contender for the race based on the summary provided. The horse has been in good form in handicaps, winning its latest race over the same course and distance as this race. Furthermore, it has shown improvement since moving up in trip and switching to handicaps, suggesting there may be more to come. All in all, 2/1 (10) WHITE RHINO Improver is a

White Rhino is likely to prove popular having completed a hat-trick over C&D last month, but there may be some value in taking on the seven-year-old, who has been hit with another 10lb rise in the ratings for that latest success. Bumper winner SWAPPED makes his handicap debut off what looks a fair mark and a wind procedure since his midfield finish at Plumpton in January may unlock enough potential to triumph here. Sageburg County and Inchester D'amsyl also make their first appearance in this sphere and any market support would make them of interest.

WHITE RHINO's form has taken off since going handicapping up in trip, recording a second C&D success when scoring comfortably here last time, and he can land the 4-timer with the promise of still more to offer. There are several interesting handicap debutants in the line-up, though, with Swapped feared most ahead of Inchester d'Amsyl and Sageburg County.

The vote goes to the highly progressive WHITE RHINO (nap), who made it 3-3 in handicaps with his comfortable win over C&D last month.

18:50 Southwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.

Based on the summary provided, it appears that

THANKSFORTHEHELP was unable to justify favouritism when finishing midfield in the Pertemps Final at the Cheltenham Festival last month, but David Pipe's inmate is of strong interest now returned to novice company and looks to have been found a good opportunity to return to winning ways. Amrons Sage recorded a first success under Rules when winning a handicap hurdle at Ludlow last time and warrants respect, despite having 8lb to find on the ratings with the selection, while Richhill makes most appeal of the remainder.

THANKSFORTHEHELP shaped better than the result in the Pertemps Final at Cheltenham last month, unable to sustain his effort, and he can resume winning ways back in novice company. The 6-y-o can see off the challenge of the improving Amrons Sage, while Gentle Frank could also have further progress to come.

Thanksforthehelp holds leading claims provided he copes with the drop back to a sharp 2m4f. A solid alternative is RICHHILL.

19:25 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

9/1 (2) HILLFINCH and 10/1 (1) MONTMARTIN are the most likely to do well based on the summary. Both have recent wins or close finishes in handicaps and have been raised in the weights but still have good claims.

Upped markedly in trip for his handicap debut, it would be no surprise to see Montmartin take his form to a new level, but HILLFINCH edges the vote. Stuart Edmunds' mare has displayed significant progress since stepping up to 3m and having bumped into an improver when narrowly denied over C&D 16 days ago, she can go one better today. Recent Stratford scorer Tiny Tantrum must enter calculations, along with Just Call Me Al, who is well treated on his best form and hinted at a return to form when finishing a creditable fourth at Catterick last time.

MONTMARTIN is just the type to leave his previous form behind now handicapping upped markedly in trip and he gets the vote. Royal Lake opened his account at Fontwell earlier this month and can go well again up 4 lb. Stratford-winner Tiny Tantrum and On The Bandwagon are also considered.

Back on track after treatment for ulcers, ROYAL LAKE can defy a 4lb rise at the chief expense of Can't Beat History.

20:00 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.

9/1 (5) RED VISION is likely to do well based on the summary. Although he hasn't won a hurdle race yet, he has won two novice hurdles last March and took a step back in the right direction with a good fifth in a handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (15.8f, heavy) 27 days ago. This form is also working out really well and he holds good claims off a falling mark.

ARISTOBULUS achieved a peak rating of 82 when trained on the Flat, and he's shown signs of ability in this sphere. Far from disgraced on his handicap debut 25 days ago, the gelded son of Adaay was dropped 1lb for that effort and he wouldn't need to improve much further to record a first hurdles success today. Dance At Night merits a place on the shortlist, as does Scarpered, who remains capable of better for his leading trainer. Eventful is another to consider.

Not nearly so competitive as the numbers suggest. RED VISION hinted at a revival when fifth at Uttoxeter last time and with that form working out really well he looks the way to go off a handy-looking mark. Aristobulus is holding his form well for Stuart Edmunds and is next on the list ahead of in-form maiden Bushmill Boy.

Preference if for ARISTOBULUS, who probably didn't have the race run to suit when third on his recent handicap hurdle debut.

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.
