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

KEEP ON COBBLING outran big odds to fill the runner-up spot at Doncaster last month and should have more to offer. With Sam Twiston-Davies back on board, Henry Daly's mare looks the one to beat. Plus Point finished fifth behind the selection on Town Moor, but improvement is anticipated on only her second start for the Billy Aprahamian yard. La Cantate is another to note.

A chance is taken that improvement in her jumping will enable PLUS POINT to turn the tables on Keep On Cobbling from Doncaster.

1	4 1st (4) (4/1 +33%) Pottlerath	4 4/1(+33%)	(4) Pottlerath 4/1, Travelled well when 7l third in a handicap chase over 3m7f at Chepstow most recent run; down in trip, which may not suit ideally and others better treated at weights Good-ground specialist who was placed off much-reduced mark at Chepstow (3m6f) last month.
2	5 2nd (5) (2/1 +50%) Getthepot	2 2/1(+50%)	(5) Getthepot 2/1, Back to form able to dominate when second beaten 3/4l off 87 over 3m2f at Doncaster last time; off a short-break; threat if getting an easy lead Ran well in defeat in February, after a break, and remains unexposed over marathon trips.
3	6 3rd (6) (5/1 -43%) Martalmix'jac	5 5/1(-43%)	(6) Martalmix'jac 5/1, Game, but late error costly when beaten a short-head off 85 over 3m at Southwell last time; up in trip; off a short-break; can rate a little more highly and contender Went very close at Southwell (3m) in February and tackles this new trip from the same mark.
3	3 \|PU\| (3) (SP +100%) Grillon De Monty	0 SP(+100%)	(3) Grillon De Monty SP, Decent hurdle form back in 2023, but no worthwhile form since a break in May of that year; needs to show retained ability to enter calculations Ran well for a long way at Hereford in February and is eased in grade here.

7	7 \|PU\| (7) (14/1 +86%) Raindance Queen	14 14/1(+86%)	(7) Raindance Queen 14/1, Probably needed race well beaten in a handicap chase over 3m at Huntingdon latest, but no really worthwhile form and best passed over here Poor maiden who can't be recommended.

14:18 Stratford (Class 5) 27f Race Class Flow

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

GROOM DE COTTE made his way through the field before scooting clear by over nine lengths at Huntingdon, shaping as if this rise in distance may bring about even more improvement. The nine-year-old might only need to run to a similar level in order to make it three wins out of his last four starts. Pottlerath finished third in a warmer event at Chepstow and continues to lurk on an appealing mark. Getthepot is also noted.

Course winner MARTALMIX'JAC (nap) is perhaps fortunate to have escaped a nudge up the weights for his close second over 3m in February.

1	2 1st (2) (18/1 -13%) Presenting Yeats	18 18/1(-13%)	(2) Presenting Yeats 18/1, Has looked regressive and well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m7f at Worcester latest; fair effort penultimate start and repeat of that would be enough to go well here Quirky customer; has conditions to suit but was out of form last summer when last seen.
2	8 2nd (8) (11/2 +66%) Clover Pass	5.5 11/2(+66%)	(8) Clover Pass 11/2, Comfortably held in a maiden hurdle over 2m3f at Chepstow last time and no worthwhile form in hurdles; only hope is returns to form of bumper debut third in 2022 Struggled in first two handicaps; upped in trip with hood added here.
3	7 3rd (7) (10/3 -48%) Blackacre	3.333333 10/3(-48%)	(7) Blackacre 10/3, Well backed, but beaten 23l in a handicap hurdle over 3m at Ffos Las latest on heavy; up in trip; presumably thought to be in good heart and can contend Placed twice over fences in late 2024 and ran well again when back hurdling in February.
4	5 4th (5) (3/1 -9%) R Bernard	3 3/1(-9%)	(5) R Bernard 3/1, Won this last year, but was in form at the time and below par when well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m7f at Market Rasen latest; race record makes one to consider Out of sorts in winter when last seen but won this race in 2024; might bounce back to form.
5th	3 5th (3) (3/1 +70%) Wot You Wearing	3 3/1(+70%)	(3) Wot You Wearing 3/1, Pulled up in a handicap chase over 2m3f at Exeter latest; ran well over hurdles in December, but out of form since; trainer in form; up in trip; well treated if returns to best Went close on seasonal debut in October but seems badly to have lost his way since winter.

14:50 Stratford (Class 5) 26f Race Class Flow

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

Blackacre was well beaten into second at Ffos Las in February, but has to be respected off a 2lb lower rating. However, it may pay to side with QUITE THE GETAWAY, who pulled out a bit more to finish fifth over 2m6f here. The seven-year-old is fancied to improve for the rise in distance and can get off the mark. Clover Pass isn't out of it either.

He was out of form when we last saw him but R BERNARD is taken to win this race for the second year running.

1	1 1st (1) (SP +100%) Jackpot Cash	0 SP(+100%)	(1) Jackpot Cash SP, Well backed and travelled when landing a handicap by 1 1/4l off 95 over 2m5f at Sedgefield last time; usually held up; down in trip; just as good over hurdles and bit to come 2-4 for new stable since February, having won over hurdles and fences; major player.
2	6 2nd (6) (9/2 +72%) Auntie Maggie	4.5 9/2(+72%)	(6) Auntie Maggie 9/2, Pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Taunton latest and generally in poor form since third in maiden hurdle back in May; hard to fancy Not beaten far in her latest handicap and today's faster ground will suit.
3	2 3rd (2) (8/1 +76%) Foreverwalking	8 8/1(+76%)	(2) Foreverwalking 8/1, Back to form penultimate start, but found nothing latest after travelling well though touch freely and well beaten in a handicap hurdle over 2m4f at Southwell; trainer in form; may bounce back and contend Still unexposed over hurdles but dropped out rather tamely on last month's handicap debut.
4	3 4th (3) (3/1 0%) Land Girl's Luck	3 3/1(0%)	(3) Land Girl's Luck 3/1, Raced freely when won a maiden hurdle at Sedgefield over 2m1f by 6l last time fitted with cheekpieces; steadily progressive; should figure if head gear works again 6l winner of modest mares' maiden at Sedgefield this month; makes handicap debut today.
5th	4 5th (4) (6/1 -167%) Neigh Botha	6 6/1(-167%)	(4) Neigh Botha 6/1, Returned to form back on better ground under more reserved ride when beaten 3l off 97 over 2m1f at Bangor-on-Dee last time; similar form when won at Southwell over hurdles in November; chance Back from break with good second over fences last month; can make presence felt again here.

15:25 Stratford (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

Back to winning ways with a determined success over fences at Sedgefield, JACKPOT CASH should have no issue reverting to the smaller obstacles for in-form connections. The six-year-old is narrowly preferred to Land Girl's Luck, who was a taking winner herself at the same track and could be well treated off a mark of 100 on her handicap debut. Not beaten far over fences at Bangor last time out, Neigh Botha is worth a second look.

Topweight JACKPOT CASH is enjoying a productive spell for his new stable and gets the vote ahead of Neigh Botha.

1	4 1st (4) (8/11 +68%) Therapist	0.727273 8/11(+68%)	(4) Therapist 8/11, Ran to form beaten a neck off 77 over 11f at Southwell on the Flat last time and best judged on narrow defeat over hurdles off 102 in September; top connections; go well Dual hurdle winner; in good form on AW in recent months; big player here.
2	3 2nd (3) (4/1 +20%) Honeywort	4 4/1(+20%)	(3) Honeywort 4/1, Below par well beaten in a novice hurdle over 2m5f at Warwick latest; better previous start and open to improvement; returning from a break; mark looks stiff Showed promise in all three qualifying races; drops in trip for handicap debut.
1	1 \|F\| (1) (3/1 -173%) Magical Annie	3 3/1(-173%)	(1) Magical Annie 3/1, Was 2l clear and looked the likely winner when fell last time following a novice win at Wetherby second start after a wind operation; obvious chance on handicap debut, mark not generous though Beat good yardstick in Wetherby novice in February; leading contender on handicap debut.
2	2 \|PU\| (2) (14/1 -133%) Picture Of You	14 14/1(-133%)	(2) Picture Of You 14/1, Well backed after a wind operation when pulled up in a maiden hurdle at Hereford latest; presumably considered no longer to have breathing problem, but mark stiff based on all public form Second twice in Ireland last September but pulled up when unsteerable on stable debut.

15:58 Stratford (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

MAGICAL ANNIE looked to be in control of proceedings when falling at the last at Catterick and she looks more than capable of gaining compensation with conditions in her favour again. Winless since a handicap hurdle at Huntingdon last May, Therapist has been kept busy on the all-weather and arrives after a narrow defeat at Southwell. Picture Of You can improve on a disappointing first start for new connections at Hereford in February.

Handicap debutante MAGICAL ANNIE could still have significant potential and is selected to make amends for last month's mishap.

1	2 1st (2) (10/11 +100%) Allmankind	0.909091 10/11(+100%)	(2) Allmankind 10/11, Winner of two G1s back in the day and in good form in points before disappointing in the Foxhunter at the Festival; this much easier company and should go well Unable to get near front in the big Cheltenham hunter chase (20-1); should go well here.
2	3 2nd (3) (9/4 +18%) Empire De Maulde	2.25 9/4(+18%)	(3) Empire De Maulde 9/4, Travelled well, but out-battled late when second beaten a nose in a hunter chase at Newbury last time; repeat of that should put him in the mix Won points this year and beaten a nose in five-runner hunter chase at Newbury (2m7f).
3	4 3rd (4) (7/1 +42%) Imperial Esprit	7 7/1(+42%)	(4) Imperial Esprit 7/1, Couple of fair efforts in points in the South East of late, likely similar to level of good second in hunter chase here in May last year; place chance on that form Second of five in a C&D hunter chase last May but he probably needs better to win this.
4	5 4th (5) (18/1 +45%) Solomon Grey	18 18/1(+45%)	(5) Solomon Grey 18/1, Probably needed race comfortably held in a hunter chase over 2m4f at Ludlow last time; best judged on solid form last May; probably bit to find with market leaders Third of six in this race last year; now a 13yo and losing spell goes back to April 2022.

16:28 Stratford (Class 5) 22f Race Class Flow

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

A high-class performer a few years ago as a juvenile hurdler and novice chaser, ALLMANKIND has found a new lease of life in point-to-points and never had much of a chance at the Cheltenham Festival when hampered at the first. This is a much easier assignment, with Empire De Maulde looking best placed to chase him home following a narrow defeat at Newbury. Bardenstown Lad will enjoy this ground and is expected to have a say in proceedings as well.

His Cheltenham foray did not pan out at all favourably but ALLMANKIND has a big chance today. Empire De Maulde is second choice.

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.
