1st (6) St Pancras (1/5 +100%)
St Pancras

0.2
1/5(+100%)
(6) St Pancras 1/5, Fairly useful handicapper on the Flat (stays 1¾m) and has improved signicantly with each run over hurdles, winning Musselburgh listed event on second start prior to finding only one too good in Grade 2 Adonis at Kempton. Sets a high standard.
Conceding 5lb to a really smart prospect when runner-up in the Grade 2 Adonis.

2nd (10) Dambuster (4/1 +20%)
Dambuster

4
4/1(+20%)
(10) Dambuster 4/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1¼m), won minor event in 2024, well held final start. Interesting hurdling newcomer.
Won two of his eight races for Andrew Balding; joined this yard for 20,000gns.

Pomeriggio

125
125/1(-25%)
(11) Pomeriggio 125/1, Disappointing on the Flat and offered little on Cork hurdling debut in December.
Regressed in Ireland and kicked off for this yard with a quiet run on the AW last month.

Mexican Stan

(5) Mexican Stan 33/1, Looks more one for handicaps after this run,
Showed a tad more last time at Warwick but should be outclassed by the best of these.

Goodbyemick

33
33/1(+67%)
(2) Goodbyemick 33/1, Maiden pointer who has run to just a poor level in a hunter chase/Newbury novice hurdle.
0-13 in Irish points; highly questionable what he achieved when a remote fourth at Newbury.

Al Mootamarid

8/1(+27%)
(8) Al Mootamarid 8/1, Fairly useful handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m), well held final 2 starts in 2024. Has left Marco Botti ahead of hurdle bow.
Lost his way for Marco Botti but was a useful 1m2f winner and changed hands for 27,000gns.

13:55 Stratford (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

KIENTZHEIM raced too keenly to do herself justice in a race she was strongly fancied to win at Newbury. However, Nicky Henderson's French import is better than that and can atone if she bounces back to the sort of form that saw her make an impressive debut for the yard at Kempton's Christmas fixture. Adonis runner-up St Pancras is a live danger, despite the four-year-old carrying a penalty for winning the Scottish Triumph Hurdle at Musselburgh. Dambuster is a notable recruit from the Flat to keep an eye on.

ST PANCRAS sets a high standard for a race of this nature and can make the most of the drop in grade. Kientzheim remains with potential, particularly now faced with a sharp 2m, with Dambuster an interesting hurdling newcomer.

Barring incident this should be a straight shootout between the standout form contenders ST PANCRAS and Kientzheim.

1st (3) Get The Value (10/1 +60%)
Get The Value

10
10/1(+60%)
(3) Get The Value 10/1, Respectable second of 12 at Newton Abbot (18.5f) in July remains a standout effort over hurdles and has questions to answer now having pulled-up on his last two outings.
Second in a handicap last summer but very laboured in his two subsequent runs.

6
2nd (6) Fillyfudge (17/2 +58%)
Fillyfudge

8.5
17/2(+58%)
(6) Fillyfudge 17/2, Bettered previous efforts in this sphere when third of 8 at Leicester in November (15.5f, good to soft) but not seen to best effect in testing conditions over the same C&D next time. Likely to be suited by the sharper track/better ground here and should be spot on for this after pipe-opener on Flat.
Has won three on the Flat and two places over hurdles include one in a handicap.

3rd (4) Belle Montrose (3/1 +63%)
Belle Montrose

3
3/1(+63%)
(4) Belle Montrose 3/1, Still a maiden but shaped quite encouragingly when fifth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Wincanton (15.2f, soft) in January, pulling clear of the remainder. Presumably not quite right on her last outing having become detached after the first. Chance if back on song.
Poor last time but went off at only 4-1 then after an improved run at Wincanton.

4th (1) Lawmans Blis (13/2 -189%)
Lawmans Blis

6.5
13/2(-189%)
(1) Lawmans Blis 13/2, Fair winner at 14f on flat for Ivan Furtado. Stepped forward from debut for this yard to win a 7-runner novice hurdle at Sedgefield (16.8f), for all he was gifted the race when the odds-on favourite fell and nearly threw it away when losing concentration at the last. Shortlisted on handicap debut.
Recent novice winner; raised 6lb ahead of handicap debut and doubt he's thrown in.
5th
7
5th (7) Penthouse Poppet (12/1 +45%)
Penthouse Poppet

12
12/1(+45%)
(7) Penthouse Poppet 12/1, Looked a modest performer in Ireland for Colin A. McBratney, last seen when well-held at Down Royal (24.1f) in November 2023. Drops significantly in trip for stable debut and only worth considering if market vibes hint at an improved effort.
Ex-Irish; 0-11 in points and 0-8 as a hurdler; lots to prove, even off this low a mark.
6th
10
6th (10) Mambo Beat (7/2 +30%)
Mambo Beat

3.5
7/2(+30%)
(10) Mambo Beat 7/2, Flat winner in 2023 for Clive Cox and has proved inconsistent over hurdles for this yard, certainly more miss than hit this season but did shape better fitted with first-time cheekpieces (retained) when chasing home the front two in the market at Hereford 3 weeks ago. Claims if he can back that up.
In first-time cheekpieces when a close third on good ground at Hereford 21 days ago.
7th
9
7th (9) Freedom Day (20/1 -122%)
Freedom Day

20
20/1(-122%)
(9) Freedom Day 20/1, Fair Flat winner but he has made an inauspicious start in this sphere and for present connections, again achieving little when fifth of 7 in novice hurdle at Hexham (16.2f, good to soft) 16 days ago. Needs to improve for the switch to handicaps.
This is his handicap debut and that offers some hope, especially with Brian Hughes booked.
8th
5
8th (5) Rockette (9/2 +75%)
Rockette

4.5
9/2(+75%)
(5) Rockette 9/2, Showed ability both starts over hurdles for Dan Skelton in May/June 2023. Back from 19 months off when creditable fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (19f) on debut for this stable but failed to build on that when disappointing at Huntingdon earlier this month. Bounce back needed.
Latest run needs forgiving but she has the form to warrant a second look.
9th
11
9th (11) No Guarantee (50/1 +50%)
No Guarantee

50
50/1(+50%)
(11) No Guarantee 50/1, Remains with little form over hurdles and faces an uphill task from 9 lb out of the handicap.
14-race maiden who isn't progressing and he's 9lb of the weights here; hard to warm to.
8

|PU| (8) For You Buzz (22/1 +12%)
For You Buzz

22
22/1(+12%)
(8) For You Buzz 22/1, Didn't achieve much in qualifying runs, though not given hard time on the last of those when third of 6 in juvenile hurdle at Taunton. Ran badly when well-beaten at Hereford (16.2f) on handicap debut 3 weeks ago and he may again find this test on the sharp side.
Only had the four races but his handicap debut at Hereford was instantly forgettable.

14:30 Stratford (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

LAWMANS BLIS is just about the only one who comes into this with little to prove and has a decent chance of following up last week's 13-length victory at Sedgefield. A mark off 99 for his handicap bow in this sphere looks fair and the Jennie Candlish-trained gelding is hard to oppose with improvement likely. Mambo Beat showed more sparkle with cheekpieces added at Hereford and can figure if the headgear draws further progression. Present De Vango and For You Buzz are unexposed and appeal as solid each-way options.

Olly Murphy has struck with 3 of his last 7 handicap hurdle debutants (also had 2 runners-up) and he may be able to enhance that fine record with PRESENT DE VANGO. The lightly-raced 7-y-o appears to have been brought along with handicaps in mind and makes appeal in a weak race, particularly if the market noises are positive following a 17-month absence. Fillyfudge will be suited by this sharp test and should be spot on after a recent spin on the Flat, with Mambo Beat not ruled out.

Present De Vango (second choice) is the dark horse but MAMBO BEAT will go well if backing up his improved effort at Hereford.

1st (1) Mahons Glory (5/4 +44%)
Mahons Glory

1.25
5/4(+44%)
(1) Mahons Glory 5/4, Ended his time with Patrick Neville out of sorts but, having been picked up very cheaply, proved at least as good as ever when scoring at Leicester (22.7f, good to soft) just over 3 weeks ago, seemingly revitalised by a return to front running/chasing. Not sure to be in the same mood, however.
Won on stable debut at Leicester three weeks ago; strong claims if backing that up.

2nd (3) The Wolf (11/8 +31%)
The Wolf

1.375
11/8(+31%)
(3) The Wolf 11/8, Not straightforward but in fine form in November when taking small-field handicaps at Huntingdon and Leicester. Labouring some way out when gunning for the hat-trick back from a break at Carlisle last month but back on song when bumping into one at Kempton (24f, good to soft) 2 weeks ago.
Back to form when second at Kempton recently and there's every chance he'll be bang there.

3rd (2) Sine Nomine (9/2 -29%)
Sine Nomine

4.5
9/2(-29%)
(2) Sine Nomine 9/2, Confirmed herself one of the best hunters around when landing the Festival Challenge Cup at Cheltenham Festival last year. Let down by jumping all 3 starts this term, but this represents a significant drop in grade and she's ridden by a fully-fledged professional rider for the first time.
Kicked before the start in the Kim Muir (pulled up); 2-2 here and capable if back on song.

15:05 Stratford (Class 3) 22f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

THE WOLF banished the memory of a modest run at Carlisle with a game second to a well-fancied rival at Kempton a fortnight ago. Competing off the same rating, Olly Murphy's still-enthusiastic veteran could be hard to beat. Pedley Wood patently failed to deliver when bidding to complete a Wincanton hat-trick, but he could bounce back on better ground. Leicester winner Mahons Glory is preferred to Sine Nomine as third choice.

It's fair to say things haven't gone to plan for SINE NOMINE this season, but she was one of the best hunters around last year so can get her career back on track partnered by a fully-fledged professional rider for the first time. The Wolf wasted no time getting back to form when finishing runner-up at Kempton a fortnight ago, so he can edge out last-time-out winner Mahons Glory for the forecast spot.

The 11yo THE WOLF has enjoyed a good season and is taken to go one better than when runner-up at Kempton a fortnight ago.

Honneur D'ajonc

1.25
5/4(0%)
(3) Honneur D'ajonc 5/4, Arrives in good nick for his current yard, visored for the first time when second of 7 in claiming hurdle (11/4) at Catterick (15.7f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Second of 3 in selling hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, good, 2/1) 1 day ago. Has good chance on form.
Narrowly beaten by the favourite in a seller on Friday and faces easier opposition here.

2nd (1) Greatness Awaits (5/1 +0%)
Greatness Awaits

5
5/1(+0%)
(1) Greatness Awaits 5/1, Bounced back to his best for current yard when making all at Ludlow (15.8f) last month and struck again at Hereford (16.2f) 9 days later. Not in same form over longer trip at Southwell since but could be a player here.
Fader last time but in a Class 4 handicap and this is much a better opportunity.

3rd (2) Matchless (7/2 -56%)
Matchless

3.5
7/2(-56%)
(2) Matchless 7/2, Fairly useful hurdler who took advantage of drop in grade when taking seller at Plumpton in November. Been rather in and out since but must enter calculations here.
Four hurdle wins; he's not one for maximum faith but the same is true of his rivals.

80/1(+20%)
(4) Blackijo Dagrostis 80/1, Showed little in points and was a similar story on Rules debut in novice hurdle at Ludlow last week.
0-8 in points; 40-1 when pulled up in a small-field novice hurdle at Ludlow; lots to prove.
5th

5th (7) Razzo Italiano (10/1 +60%)
Razzo Italiano

10
10/1(+60%)
(7) Razzo Italiano 10/1, Back-to-back hurdles winner in September, including over C&D for this yard. Should be fit from a couple of recent runs on the Flat but has something to find on form here.
All three wins have come in low-grade hurdle races but these terms aren't favourable.
6th

6th (5) Black Tonic (18/1 -64%)

(5) Black Tonic 18/1, Fair hurdler in Ireland back in 2023. Not seen for 19 months, however, and market may prove best guide to claims on return for new yard.
Ability respected but has a bit on at these weights and has been a long-time absent.

15:40 Stratford (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

MATCHLESS was disappointing at Catterick on his latest start, but this appears to be a solid opportunity for him to make amends. The seven-year-old steps back up in trip, which is expected to see him in a different light. Greatness Awaits is the likely pace angle and a threat to all if able to dominate proceedings, while others to note include Black Tonic and It's A Good Name.

HONNEUR D'AJONC didn't do a lot wrong at Catterick on penultimate start and looks the safest option if turned ou again after Wetherby on Friday in a contest where few appeal. Matchless and Greatness Awaits may give him most to think bout.

Matchless and Honneur d'Ajonc are dangerous but GREATNESS AWAITS is perhaps the one most likely to give his running.

1st (9) Siam Park (13/8 +51%)
Siam Park

1.625
13/8(+51%)
(9) Siam Park 13/8, Free-going sort who confirmed promise of his chase debut second when opening his account in 8-runner Taunton handicap (2m) 19 days ago, that despite facing competition for the lead throughout. Appeals as the type to do better still and shortlisted up 5 lb.
Taken well to fences and off the mark on second chase start, over 2m on good; can progress.

2nd (6) Kayce Dutton (9/2 +0%)
Kayce Dutton

4.5
9/2(+0%)
(6) Kayce Dutton 9/2, Hurdles winner for Margaret Mullins who enhanced his run of placed efforts at Huntingdon when runner-up over extended 19f there 17 days ago. Fact he hasn't proved as effective away from that venue is a concern but he evidently arrives in good heart.
Solid effort when trying to give weight to an improver over 2m4f latest; thereabouts.

(3) Mortens Leam 12/1, Veteran course winner who capitalised on reduced mark to open his account for the season in handicap chase at Fakenham (21.2f) in January, leading before last and winning readily. 5 lb higher makes things tougher but possibilities nevertheless.
Looked in great form for 2m5f win in January; might just need this after a break.

4th (2) Tactical Affair (4/1 +47%)
Tactical Affair

Yet to scale same heights for present stable, albeit possibly in need of the run after 3 months off when fourth in 6-runner handicap chase at Exeter (19.2f) 11 days ago. Not one to write off. Cheekpieces on 1st time.
Struggled in handicap chases of late but down 9lb in three runs; first-time cheekpieces.

Three chase wins in France; low key in Britain so far but one to keep an eye on.
6th

6th (7) Inspiratrice (10/1 +0%)
Inspiratrice

Comes into it on the pick of her chase form and should come on for recent return to action.
7th

7th (1) Intrepide Sud (12/1 +0%)
Intrepide Sud

12

(1) Intrepide Sud 12/1, Fair bumper winner who reached a similar level over hurdles, making a winning return in a Uttoxeter maiden (15.8f) in October. However, pulled up next 2 starts and low-key effort starting out over fences here (17f) 19 days ago. Has something to prove now upped in trip.
Made all in 2m maiden hurdle in October; mildly promising chase debut; can improve.

Chase promise in France; lengthy layoffs either side of tailed-off run on AW last February.

Purple patch over hurdles in spring 2023 but out of sorts over fences and hurdles since.

16:15 Stratford (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

SIAM PARK has already made up into a better chaser by getting off the mark at Taunton earlier in the month. A 5lb rise is unlikely to stop Joe Tizzard's charge from progressing again, with a rise in trip potentially helping him take another step in the right direction. Inspiratrice is fairly handicapped on her best form and has to enter calculations along with Kayce Dutton, who finished second at Huntingdon last time.

SIAM PARK confirmed the promise of his chase debut effort when opening his account over shorter at Taunton (2m) 19 days ago and, appealing as the type to do better still, he looks to hold sound claims again returned to this longer trip. Veteran Mortens Leam and Tactical Affair are others to consider, with Kayce Dutton another contender if proving as effective away from Huntingdon.

There's more to come from Intrepide Sud now the ground is drying out but SIAM PARK (nap) can cope with a 5lb rise for Taunton.

Tropical Speed

3.5
7/2(+56%)
(6) Tropical Speed 7/2, Made the frame on final 3 outings for Eoin Doyle last summer, but hasn't offered much in 2 starts on soft ground for current trainer this year. However, he could yet do better for his new yard faced with less testing conditions.
Quiet in two runs for this yard but returning to drier ground could make a big difference.

Still relatively early days but significant improvement is required.

Has achieved little under rules and not ideal that he's 4lb wrong at the weights.

Quiet stable debut but will at least enjoy these conditions and he does have track form.

(8) My Louise 13/2, Successful on the first 2 of 3 starts in bumpers but below that level over hurdles so far, seventh of 11 in maiden at Ascot (21.6f, good to soft) on latest outing in December. Handicaps could see her in a better light, though, given her bumper form.
Dual bumper winner who goes handicapping at a low level and needs checking in the betting.

(11) Ray's The One 25/1, On a long losing run but returned to form back off his proper mark when third at Huntingdon (19.6f, good to soft) last month. Failed to repeat that effort at the same C&D 10 days ago, but he lurks on a dangerous mark if he's on a going day.
No hurdle win since 2022 and struggles to follow one good run with another.

(5) Boskill Borden 25/1, Just the one win from 11 starts over hurdles in Ireland and below form on his final 2 starts there. After 6 months off, fared no better in first-time cheekpieces when down the field at Ludlow (15.8f, soft) on stable debut and others more persuasive at present.
Well beaten on UK debut but at 2m and he did place over 2m6f in Ireland.

(3) Maggies Boy 9/2, Back up in trip for handicap debut, left previous efforts behind when second of 5 at Sedgefield (19.8f, good to soft) 18 days ago, rallying after the last. Cheekpieces applied and he could be ready to get off the mark over this longer distance.
Runner-up on handicap debut at Sedgefield (2m4f, good) and he's bred for this longer trip.

(14) Top Drawer 80/1, Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs, finishing well held when ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter (19.9f, good to soft, 11/1) when last seen in July 2023. Is 8 lb wrong at the weights as he returns from 20 months off.
Longstanding maiden who has been off for a long time and he's 8lb out of the weights.

(10) Tip Top Tonto 40/1, Sole success came in handicap hurdle at Fakenham (20f) in April last year. However, his form has gone the wrong way for new yards this season, well held both starts for his current trainer. Looks to be up against it.
Has won off 4lb higher but nothing positive to take out of his last four races.

(1) Calagogo 50/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler at best, leaving Gordon Elliott/off 23 months prior to 2024/25. Made the frame at this C&D on third start for current yard in July, but has run poorly last 2 outings and others preferred after 6 months off.
Form for Gordon Elliott is a fading memory; an okay run three starts ago but poor since.

16:50 Stratford (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

MAGGIES BOY produced his best effort to date when runner-up on his handicap debut at Sedgefield and the application of first-time cheekpieces is likely to help sharpen him up in his bid to go one better. Nowyouvebinandunit went close over C&D earlier in the month and a repeat of that display is likely to see her get competitive again, despite a 3lb higher mark. Others for the shortlist include My Louise and Arctic Saint.

MAGGIES BOY has been going the right way over hurdles, showing much improved form when second on handicap debut at Sedgefield last time, and with this longer trip promising to suit he is taken to go one better with cheekpieces added. Nowyouvebinandunit took a step forward when runner-up here 19 days ago and is feared most, ahead of Arctic Saint.

Maggies Boy is feared but if TROPICAL SPEED is to win a race it will be at this lowly level under these conditions.

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.
