The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(2) Smurfette 9/4, Got off the mark at Warwick in September and backed it up with a good third of 16 in handicap chase at Stratford (22.6f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Can go well again. Solid form for the level; good 3rd over 2m6f latest; should stay 3m; closely involved.
4
2nd (4) (6/5 -110%) Northern Reel
1.2
6/5(-110%)
(4) Northern Reel 6/5, Irish point winner is going the right way and got off the mark under Rules in 8-runner handicap chase at Leicester (22.7f, good to firm) 8 days ago, forging right away. The one to beat under a 7 lb penalty. Improving over fences and had things her own way over 2m6f last week; good claims.
7
3rd (7) (6/1 +50%) Bella Ciao
6
6/1(+50%)
(7) Bella Ciao 6/1, Maiden hudler and pulled up in handicap chase at Wincanton (20.2f, good) on her debut over fences 30 days ago. Has work to do. Has course form but lightly raced now and was pulled up on chase debut; 3lb wrong.
5
4th (5) (16/1 +11%) Just Jess
16
16/1(+11%)
(5) Just Jess 16/1, On a lenghty losing run and pulled up on the back of a wind op in handicap hurdle at Warwick (25f, good to soft) in May. Lots more needed back chasing. Hurdle wins at 2m/3m1f; pulled up on latest chase start in January and over hurdles in May.
6
5th (6) (7/1 +50%) Eightytwo Team
7
7/1(+50%)
(6) Eightytwo Team 7/1, C&D winner who recorded a creditable fourth of 10 in handicap chase at Warwick (25.4f, good) 21 days ago. Can give another good account. Has won and gone close in just two C&D starts; weighted to be involved back here.
1
|PU| (1) (40/1 -60%) Nowinittowinit
40
40/1(-60%)
(1) Nowinittowinit 40/1, Fair 3m winner over hurdles but pulled up in handicap chase at Punchestown (23.2f, good) 41 days ago on his final run for Stuart Crawford. Needs yard switch to spark a resurgence. Running well over fences/hurdles at Perth in the summer; pulled up latest; new yard.
12:35 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
A comprehensive winner over an extended 2m6f at Leicester last week, NORTHERN REEL is flourishing for the in-form Olly Murphy and appeals strongly on her bid to follow up under a 7lb penalty. Having won a point-to-point over 3m, the selection has proven stamina and scope for progression over fences. Smurfette and Shesupincourt are the pick of the remainder, in that order of preference.
NORTHERN RELL arrives on an upward curve and a 7 lb penalty for her wide-margin Leicester success doesn't looks sufficient to prevent her from following up. Smurfette also comes here in great nick and appeals as the one to chase home Olly Murphy's mare ahead of C&D winner Eightytwo Team.
This will be more competitive than at Leicester last week but NORTHERN REEL won in good style and can get the better of Smurfette.
(8) Jasmin De Grugy 9/4, Has looked a different proposition since running in handicap hurdles, completing quickfire hat-trick at Ffos Las in May. Will go on improving now sent chasing so needs considering. Won his last three starts over hurdles; respected on chase debut if returning in same form.
6
2nd (6) (11/2 +73%) Knockanore
5.5
11/2(+73%)
(6) Knockanore 11/2, A fairly useful winning hurdler but below par last 4 starts, including both starts over fences this season. Well beaten in two starts over fences since back from another absence; enough to prove.
9
3rd (9) (5/1 +9%) Onewayortother
5
5/1(+9%)
(9) Onewayortother 5/1, Bettered hurdles form at the first time of asking in this sphere when third of 5 in handicap chase (7/2) at Warwick (16.2f, good to soft) in May. Disappointed at Chepstow on return but still early days in this sphere. Up in trip. Cheekpieces back on. Third of five in both starts over fences; the step back up in trip may suit; not dismissed.
10
4th (10) (12/1 +14%) Maninsane
12
12/1(+14%)
(10) Maninsane 12/1, Dual winner in first campaign over fences but not so consistent last term. Enhanced good record fresh when second at Huntingdon but unable to back that up at Warwick 3 weeks ago. Bit of a mixed bag since winning here in March last year; others are more convincing.
2
5th (2) (10/1 -11%) Great Samourai
10
10/1(-11%)
(2) Great Samourai 10/1, Improved when winning 6-runner handicap chase at Huntingdon (16.5f, good) in May, doing better under change of tactics. Probably found next run coming too soon following month so no surprise to see him bounce back. Won well at Huntingdon in May and twice ran well here before that; a player.
11
6th (11) (33/1 -32%) You Say Nothing
33
33/1(-32%)
(11) You Say Nothing 33/1, Exploits decidedly mixed since last win and stopped worryingly quickly again after 5 months off at Ffos Las 16 days ago. Others preferred. 12lb below last winning mark but mainly disappointing this year; resurgence needed.
4
7th (4) (50/1 -150%) Duo D'enfer
50
50/1(-150%)
(4) Duo D'enfer 50/1, Veteran who matched his very best French form when doubling his tally over fences for his present yard at Sedgefield (17f, heavy) in February. Not operating at same level in 3 starts over fences/hurdles since so bit to prove on return. Won twice for this yard over fences last winter, but last three efforts have been modest.
1
|PU| (1) (9/1 +25%) Goldwyn
9
9/1(+25%)
(1) Goldwyn 9/1, Fairly useful form over hurdles while displaying the odd quirk. Didn't need to be at best when winning 15-runner novice hurdle at Wetherby (16f, heavy, 5/6) in March but disappointed on handicap bow final start. Off 6 months. Makes chase debut. Won a Wetherby maiden hurdle in March; not dismissed if taking to fences.
12
|PU| (12) (13/2 +68%) Copper Beach
6.5
13/2(+68%)
(12) Copper Beach 13/2, A fair winning hurdler who was given a considerate introduction to chasing when fourth of 7 in handicap at Sedgefield (21.1f, good to soft) but offered little at Market Rasen next time. Well beaten in both starts over fences last month; best watched for now.
5
|PU| (5) (17/2 +23%) Give Me A Boom
8.5
17/2(+23%)
(5) Give Me A Boom 17/2, Promise only start in bumpers during 2022 and runner-up first 2 starts over hurdles after an absence. Failed to progress next 2 starts, however, and opening mark looks on the high side on chase bow. Lightly raced; makes his chasing debut after seven months; market may be revealing.
13:05 Southwell Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
JASMIN DE GRUGY was profitable to follow over hurdles earlier in the year and he completed a hat-trick in a highly-pleasing manner when last seen. Prepped for an autumn campaign over fences since then, this progressive son of Masked Marvel appears to have been found an ideal starting point for his introduction to chasing. Imperial Bede represents the same owner and also warrants consideration, while Great Samourai is notable back over this trip.
JASMIN DE GRUGY was most progressive in handicap hurdles this spring and remains one to keep on the right side of now going chasing. Onewayortother is worth another chance to build on his promising chase bow at Warwick so is next best ahead of Great Samourai.
Preference is for IMPERIAL BEDE (nap) who showed a return to form last time and is 6lb lower than when winning over C&D in February.
(2) Broughshane 10/3, Got off the mark at Fontwell in October and backed it up with a very good second of 9 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (23.9f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Player. Good handicap hurdle win (2m3f); 2nd to another rising handicapper latest; contender.
5
2nd (5) (8/13 +73%) Solar System
0.615385
8/13(+73%)
(5) Solar System 8/13, Got back on the up with victory in 7-runner conditional jockeys' handicap hurdle at Warwick (19f, soft) 6 days ago. Escapes a penalty here so holds obvious claims. Has improved since winning first handicap; looked ahead of his mark latest; unpenalised.
1
3rd (1) (12/1 -9%) Lexie's Moon
12
12/1(-9%)
(1) Lexie's Moon 12/1, Resumed his progress with win in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Stratford (16.3f, heavy) 38 days ago. Up 4 lb but not taken lightly back up in trip. Cosy 2m handicap win in October; up 4lb; query about the trip back up in distance.
4
4th (4) (28/1 -75%) Manowest
28
28/1(-75%)
(4) Manowest 28/1, Fair maiden hurdler but he came in only tenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f, good to soft) 28 days ago. This points winner could still do better. Irish point winner; dropped out on handicap debut; this less testing ground could suit.
7
5th (7) (25/1 -56%) Red Panda
25
25/1(-56%)
(7) Red Panda 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden who posted her best effort when third of 7 in novice hurdle (25/1) at Warwick (19f, good) 21 days ago. No forlorn hope on her first go in handicap company. Similar chance to Asian Star on 2m3f form latest; should progress; handicap debut.
9
|F| (9) (40/1 +20%) Fat Harry
40
40/1(+20%)
(9) Fat Harry 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden hurdler. Off 12 months before a fading seventh of 10 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (17.2f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Can take a step forward. Belated debut last October; minor promise; well held on handicap debut this month.
3
|PU| (3) (11/2 -100%) Asian Star
5.5
11/2(-100%)
(3) Asian Star 11/2, Improving sort who scored over 2m here in October before advancing her form when second of 7 in novice hurdle at Warwick (19f, good) 21 days ago. Must enter calculations now going into handicaps. Impressed on 2nd hurdle start (2m); possibly had stiff task since; handicap debut.
8
|PU| (8) (50/1 +0%) Natchez Trace
50
50/1(+0%)
(8) Natchez Trace 50/1, A fair 12f Flat winner on Flat who has just run to a modest level in this sphere. Others make more appeal. Four Flat wins but has achieved little in two handicap hurdles; up against it.
13:40 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f (See Speed Six0 Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
BROUGHSHANE, who went up 9lb after winning cosily over 2m3f at Fontwell last month, appeals back in trip after filling second over 3m at Ffos Las 16 days ago. The six-year-old has to be of interest as a result and a resumption of winning ways is feasible. The recent Warwick scorer Solar System appears the chief threat without a penalty for that success, while Asian Star and Red Panda are other notable contenders.
SOLAR SYTEM resumed his progress when going in at Warwick last week and is hard to oppose given he escapes a penalty for that conditional jockeys' success. Broughshane rates the main threat on the back of his very good Ffos Las second, with handicap-debutants Asian Star and The Blueberry One also worthy of consideration.
Unpenalised Solar System is high on the list but THE BLUEBERRY ONE is an interesting one now having his first go in a handicap.
(1) Achille Des Rocs 7/1, Placed 3 times from 5 starts in maiden points and showed a bit when fourth of 12 on recent hurdles debut (16.6f). Probably more of a buddling chaser. 22-1 for a Market Rasen maiden (good) and was beaten 13l into fourth.
7
2nd (7) (9/1 +91%) Moonshine Man
9
9/1(+91%)
(7) Moonshine Man 9/1, Looks one for later on. Some bumper promise and it was always going to be tough on hurdle debut at Aintree.
8
3rd (8) (15/8 +32%) Sergeant Fury
1.875
15/8(+32%)
(8) Sergeant Fury 15/8, Successful sole outing in points and showed plenty to work on when third of 4 in bumper at Wincanton (15.2f, good) on NH debut 17 days ago. Respected making a quick switch to hurdling. Hard to know what he achieved at Wincanton recently but he should progress.
3
4th (3) (11/2 -22%) Dinofromberlais
5.5
11/2(-22%)
(3) Dinofromberlais 11/2, Unplaced both starts in Irish points and ran below expectations when a well-beaten fifth in a bumper at Ayr on Rules debut 29 days ago. Makes hurdle bow. Point form nothing to get excited about and was tailed off in an Ayr bumper.
2
5th (2) (12/1 -33%) Born In The West
12
12/1(-33%)
(2) Born In The West 12/1, Point winner who went backwards from a promising Rules debut when sixth of 10 in bumper at Worcester (16f, good, 4/1) 153 days ago. Makes hurdles debut. First run for yard after leaving David Pipe. Runner-up in a Newton Abbot bumper on debut for David Pipe but fared less well next time.
5
6th (5) (9/4 +63%) King Ulanda
2.25
9/4(+63%)
(5) King Ulanda 9/4, Landed a gamble when taking 9-runner bumper at Huntingdon (15.8f, good to firm) on NH debut 6 months ago. Has left Tom Weston/had breathing op since and should have a good future over jumps. Bought for £17,000 after winning a good-ground bumper at Huntingdon for Tom Weston.
4
7th (4) (33/1 -32%) Kap De Triomphe
33
33/1(-32%)
(4) Kap De Triomphe 33/1, Down the field in novice/maiden hurdle. Bumper winner in Ireland but hard to recommend on his two British efforts.
9
8th (9) (66/1 -100%) Tottenham Green
66
66/1(-100%)
(9) Tottenham Green 66/1, €48,000 3-y-o, Sholokhov gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner/fair 19f hurdle winner Roko George and poor hurdler Whatcoloristhewind. Maiden Irish pointer, pulled up last time (Mar 17). Showed ability in Irish points but failed to progress and ended up 0-8 in that scene.
14:10 Southwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
SERGEANT FURY was picked up for 38,000 pounds following an Irish point-to-point win in May before showing clear signs of promise on his Rules debut at Wincanton earlier this month. The son of Diamond Boy looks certain to relish a switch to hurdles and he gets the nod over Lawrenny, who hasn't been seen since winning at Newcastle in March but is returning with his yard in great form. Dinofromberlais and King Ulanda are others to consider.
LAWRENNY progressed with each run in bumpers and receives the vote to make a successful hurdling debut. King Ulanda and Sergeant Fury are a couple of potential threats.
They all finished in a bit of a heap at Wincanton but SERGEANT FURY should improve for hurdles and a truer pace.
(5) Rockola 5/4, Made the frame in a couple of bumpers towards the end of last year but was in process of running below that form when unseating rider after last on hurdles debut at Wetherby in February. Not given an overly-hard time on last month's reappearance and she retains potential in handicaps up in trip. Has shown ability and goes beyond 2m for the first time now handicapping; likely improver.
1
2nd (1) (6/4 -20%) Elle Est Beau
1.5
6/4(-20%)
(1) Elle Est Beau 6/4, Lightly-raced sort who looked set to open her account when crashing out at the last at Sandown in January. Unable to land a telling blow twice since but she returns with headgear on dropped markedly in class by her excellent yard. 0-8 but there are races in her off this mark and cheekpieces are added.
2
3rd (2) (6/1 -50%) Coco Brave
6
6/1(-50%)
(2) Coco Brave 6/1, Encouraging third on Exeter hurdles debut (17f, heavy) and looked set to be placed again when falling heavily at the last at Hereford. Shaped last time as though in need of a stiffer test of stamina and she gets that now handicapping. Has shown enough to believe this mark might be okay and the yard is having winners.
6
4th (6) (50/1 -213%) Baby Chou
50
50/1(-213%)
(6) Baby Chou 50/1, First run for yard after leaving Andrew Kinirons and showed very little back over fences at Carlisle a fortnight ago. Beat just two finishers in her Irish point; not a lot to shout about since then.
7
|PU| (7) (33/1 -65%) Talysh
33
33/1(-65%)
(7) Talysh 33/1, Didn't achieve much when fourth on all 3 qualifying runs around 2m and failed to improve for the switch to handicaps/step up in trip at Sedgefield. No more than minor promise thus far and was tailed off on her switch to handicaps.
8
|RR| (8) (12/1 -33%) Malina Ocarina
12
12/1(-33%)
(8) Malina Ocarina 12/1, Capitalised on a falling mark when narrowly scoring at Stratford (18.7f) in July but well below that level over shorter trip at same course next time. Can go well fresh, however, and no surprise if she is on the premises here. Stratford winner in July but typical of her to perform not so well the next time.
14:40 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
ROCKOLA made a pleasing return over 2m Southwell last month and this step up in trip is likely to suit. From an opening mark of 91, Alan King's filly is expected to take a step forward. Elle Est Beau wasn't always the most consistent last season but she may show more in first-time cheekpieces, while Coco Brave is capable of improvement on her handicap bow.
This represents a welcome drop in class for ELLE EST BEAU on her return to action and given the yard she represents, fitness won't be a concern. She looks the answer, ahead of Well Done Dani and Rockola.
A chance is taken on a refreshed ELLE EST BEAU, who was perhaps remembering her Sandown fall when only sixth in her last two races.
(1) Neigh Botha 2/1, Made a successful return over C&D in June and backed it up with a good third at Worcester. Form has dipped since but, on the upside, his mark is on the slide and he's dangerous to discount. Mainly seen over fences these days but retains some aptitude for hurdles; drops in class.
5
2nd (5) (11/2 +45%) Runaway Train
5.5
11/2(+45%)
(5) Runaway Train 11/2, In good hands and shaped pretty well back from a break in an 11-runner Huntingdon maiden hurdle (15.8f, good) earlier this month. Likely to be more at home now pitched into a handicap and he's one to consider. Not shown much so far, but from a successful family and stable in fine form.
14
3rd (14) (10/1 -67%) Window Of Time
10
10/1(-67%)
(14) Window Of Time 10/1, Fair maiden on the Flat in Ireland for Joseph O'Brien and while her form in juvenile hurdles is pretty modest, it's not hard to envisage improvement now that she makes the switch to handicap company. Shortlisted. Placed in last three starts on good ground over hurdles; not dismissed on handicap debut.
10
4th (10) (13/2 +80%) Motazzen
6.5
13/2(+80%)
(10) Motazzen 13/2, Fair winner on the Flat and left previous hurdling form behind when second in first-time blinkers at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good) in July. However, he has failed to build on that since and others boast more compelling credentials. 1-28 in Britain; fair second at Uttoxeter in July, but not built on it since.
8
5th (8) (12/1 +64%) Darting Rose
12
12/1(+64%)
(8) Darting Rose 12/1, Has hinted at promise on occasions but improvement was not forthcoming on handicap debut at Market Rasen when last seen in June. From a successful family for this stable but off since well held on handicap debut in June.
2
6th (2) (18/1 -50%) Illucidate
18
18/1(-50%)
(2) Illucidate 18/1, Fair ex-French Flat winner who has shown ability since switched to hurdles, equipped with first-time cheekpieces when fourth of 10 on handicap debut over C&D when last seen in May. Not without each-way hope off this 2 lb lower mark. Ran with credit when fourth over C&D in May, but may need this after seven months off.
9
7th (9) (12/1 +14%) Northern Rose
12
12/1(+14%)
(9) Northern Rose 12/1, Remains a maiden following a dozen attempts over hurdles but has several solid placed efforts to her name, not least when failing by a whisker at Stratford (18.7f, good) in July. Latest Uttoxeter fifth was decent and she's an each-way player. 0-20 under rules, but twice went close at Stratford in the summer; each-way claims.
7
8th (7) (14/1 -133%) No No Espresso
14
14/1(-133%)
(7) No No Espresso 14/1, Showed nothing for Charlie Longsdon in 2023 but there were some positives to glean from his debut spin for this yard back from 11 months off at Stratford. Likely to be seen in a better light now venturing down the handicap route and it'll look significant if the market speaks in his favour. Has shown little so far, but open to progress now handicapping.
11
9th (11) (9/1 0%) Three Zambezi's
9
9/1(0%)
(11) Three Zambezi's 9/1, Placed on the second of 2 starts in Irish points but out with the washing all 3 starts under Rules. Needs to take a big step forward now pitched into a handicap. Beaten a long way in three starts over hurdles last month; may improve now handicapping.
3
10th (3) (14/1 +13%) Danny's Friend
14
14/1(+13%)
(3) Danny's Friend 14/1, Appeared to take a step forward when fourth of 11 at Stratford on the third of his 3 starts in maiden hurdles. No further progress switched to handicaps the last twice, latterly on debut for new yard at Worcester in July, but he should do better in due course. Has shown ability over hurdles, but not sure dropping in trip is ideal; off five months.
12
11th (12) (14/1 +30%) Secret Sauce
14
14/1(+30%)
(12) Secret Sauce 14/1, Yet to score over hurdles and was never in the hunt on debut for new yard following a wind op at Fakenham last month. Others preferred. Runner-up at Hereford in January but hasn't matched that effort since.
4
12th (4) (28/1 -75%) Tarbaan
28
28/1(-75%)
(4) Tarbaan 28/1, Disappointing on the level in 2024 and he has failed to trouble the judge in 3 hurdles starts to date. However, improvement may well be forthcoming now handicapping in this sphere off a very realistic opening mark. Blinkered for the first time over hurdles. Twice well beaten since fairly promising hurdles debut; could bounce back in a handicap.
6
|PU| (6) (28/1 -12%) Gainsbourg
28
28/1(-12%)
(6) Gainsbourg 28/1, Healthy strike rate on the Flat, winner of 6 of his 27 starts on the level, but he hasn't shown much spark in a trio of appearances over hurdles so far. Well beaten in three starts over hurdles but has won six times on the Flat; handicap debut.
15:10 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
NEIGH BOTHA drops in grade and, having won over the chase course here the last time he contested a class 5 handicap, a bold showing is expected as he bids to break his duck over hurdles. With most of the remainder struggling for form, perhaps Window Of Time can figure prominently given that she gets a three-year-old allowance. Illucidate and Northern Rose complete the shortlist.
Given his solid form on the Flat this year, EARLY MORNING DEW is of strong interest returned to this sphere off a very attractive mark. He gets the nod but there are several who could leave their previous form well behind now handicapping, not least Window of Time, who is second choice. No No Espresso, Tarbaan and Runaway Train (in order of preference) all fall into that category, while top-weight Neigh Botha also needs a mention.
The vote goes to the topweight NEIGH BOTHA. Normally seen over fences these days, he drops to this grade for the very first time.
(1) Lunar Contact 8/13, Fair hurdles form for Alan King in 2022/23. Twice a winner between the flags and on the up over fences, winning a brace of handicaps this autumn. Unchanged mark back over timber and he's a major player. With cheekpieces returning he's gone back-to-back in 3m handicap chases at Fakenham.
2
2nd (2) (7/2 +13%) Mrs Tabitha
3.5
7/2(+13%)
(2) Mrs Tabitha 7/2, Unreliable sort but was running well off the back of a wind op when running out 2 out in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last month. Looked a bit more straightforward fitted with cheekpieces an Newcastle last time, confirming stamina for this sort of trip in the process. Solid third last time over nearly 3m; needs good ground so recent rain not welcomed.
8
3rd (8) (12/1 +64%) Mackie Dee
12
12/1(+64%)
(8) Mackie Dee 12/1, It's now 14 runs since his last win in 2022 but he posted a very good second of 14 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f) at the beginning of the month. Well held back there on Saturday, though. Inconsistent and was well beaten at Huntingdon only three days ago.
5
4th (5) (9/1 +0%) Bergentown
9
9/1(+0%)
(5) Bergentown 9/1, On a losing run but he posted a very good second of 11 in handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f) last month. Making headway when short of room at Hexham latest so probably still in form. Ex-Irish gelding who is 1-27 overall; did finish second over C&D last month.
4
5th (4) (50/1 -52%) Mystic Man
50
50/1(-52%)
(4) Mystic Man 50/1, Modest chaser who folded several times for Harry Derham this season. Left that yard cheaply and fared no better back over timber at Sedgefield 12 days ago. 40-1 and pulled up on stable debut in a handicap hurdle at Sedgefield.
7
6th (7) (11/1 +31%) You Say Its Over
11
11/1(+31%)
(7) You Say Its Over 11/1, Still looking for first success but runner-up 4 times last season. Remote fourth in Uttoxeter novice on reappearance last month and needed to see more back in a handicap last time to seriously consider her. 0-16 but has been runner-up four times and latest Sedgefield effort wasn't too bad.
15:40 Southwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
After a brace of chase wins over 3m at Fakenham, LUNAR CONTACT is an attractive proposition back over hurdles from the same mark as the latest of those two dominant displays. Callum Pritchard retains the ride and switching back to timber looks a canny move by connections. Sedgefield winner Topkapi Star heads the list of dangers, although Bergentown and Mrs Tabitha should also be competitive.
LUNAR CONTACT escapes a penalty for last week's easy Fakenham win and assuming he's as effective over hurdles, he'll take plenty of stopping. Topkapi Star and Getaway With You look to be the chief threats.
Most of these have a lot to prove but LUNAR CONTACT has looked on very good terms with himself over fences.

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.

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.
