Races & Results Thursday 27th October 2022
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(1) Floating Rock 0.29/1, Likeable type who took well to chasing initially, winning 2m novices at Southwell and Hexham. Not so good on his last 2 starts in handicaps (had breathing op after first one) and reverts to hurdling sporting a visor after a couple of spins on the Flat.
2
2nd (2) (5/1 -166%) Mr Coldstone
5
5/1(-166%)
(2) Mr Coldstone 5/1, Maiden hurdle winner in Ireland but that came back on New Year's Day in 2021 and he's gone winless since over hurdles/on Flat for Willie Mullins. Changed hands for £9,000 but offered little when tailed off at Market Rasen last month. Should make an impact in this grade though.
3
3rd (3) (8.5/1 +61%) Razzo Italiano
8.5
8.5/1(+61%)
(3) Razzo Italiano 8.5/1, Creditable 2 lengths fourth in a selling handicap hurdle here early last month but has disappointed in a chase/twice over hurdles since (change of headgear on latest). Hard to know what to expect.
4
|PU| (4) (22/1 -175%) Ultimate Fame
22
22/1(-175%)
(4) Ultimate Fame 22/1, Bumper winner but it didn't really click over hurdles for Fergal O'Brien despite a brace of runner-up efforts. Offered little on her first outing for new yard at Fakenham just under a fortnight ago and hopes pinned on first-time cheekpieces sparking a revival.
LTO Selection:
13:30 Stratford Selling Hurdle (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) Copperfasten 22/1, Point winner who has hinted at ability in a bumper/novice hurdle 6 months apart. Should do better in time.
3
2nd (3) (2/1 -6%) Fancy Your Chances
2
2/1(-6%)
(3) Fancy Your Chances 2/1, Fair in bumpers and shaped promisingly with her attentions turned to hurdles after 7 months off when third in 7-runner Chepstow novice (19.4f) 20 days ago. Sure to improve.
1
3rd (1) (5/1 -50%) Bolintlea
5
5/1(-50%)
(1) Bolintlea 5/1, Fair in bumpers and similar form when runner-up on her last 2 starts over hurdles. Should give another good account on her reappearance.
9
4th (9) (16/1 +36%) Ooh Betty
16
16/1(+36%)
(9) Ooh Betty 16/1, £10,000 4-y-o, Westerner filly. Dam unraced sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 2¾m) Cailin Annamh. Won second of 2 starts in Irish points (May 8). Had wind op and wears tongue strap for Rules debut.
8
5th (8) (6.5/1 +41%) Gamesters Girl
6.5
6.5/1(+41%)
(8) Gamesters Girl 6.5/1, Hinted at ability in bumpers and made an encouraging debut in this sphere in a first-time hood after 5 months off when third at Bangor (19.6f) 29 days ago, not knocked about. Open to improvement.
5
6th (5) (8.5/1 +39%) Liloo D'Ores
8.5
8.5/1(+39%)
(5) Liloo D'Ores 8.5/1, Fair form over hurdles/fences in France. Not disgraced last 2 starts following a breathing operation but more required if she's to open her account in this company. Cheekpieces back on.
7
|PU| (7) (5/1 -11%) Porter In The Park
5
5/1(-11%)
(7) Porter In The Park 5/1, €85,000 5-y-o, Walk In The Park mare. Dam (h115) 2¼m-2½m hurdle/chase winner, also 1½m-2m winner on Flat. Successful on second of 2 starts in Irish points (Apr 3). Interesting on Rules debut.
6
|PU| (6) (7/1 +13%) Meetuatnine
7
7/1(+13%)
(6) Meetuatnine 7/1, Irish point winner at third attempt who faced a stiff task when pulled up in a listed bumper at Sandown on Rules debut in March. Had had a breathing op since and should be capable of better now hurdling up in trip.
LTO Selection:
14:05 Stratford Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 22f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Sheldon 3/1, Off 6 months and shaped well after breathing surgery when third of 9 in handicap hurdle at Warwick (19f) 21 days ago. Makes chase debut and much respected.
3
2nd (3) (2/1 +40%) Heltenham
2
2/1(+40%)
(3) Heltenham 2/1, Ex-French bumper winner who showed fair form over hurdles last term for his current yard, good second at Chepstow in March. Goes chasing now after a wind op and he's very much one to consider.
5
3rd (5) (16/1 -14%) Steel Wave
16
16/1(-14%)
(5) Steel Wave 16/1, Course winner who arrives on the back of a creditable second of 5 in 3m handicap at Kempton 11 days ago. Unreliable sort, however.
6
4th (6) (66/1 -164%) Punches Cross
66
66/1(-164%)
(6) Punches Cross 66/1, Hasn't shown much since joining present yard, tried in cheekpieces when last of 4 in 2m handicap at Newton Abbot 18 months ago. Has his fitness to prove on comeback.
1
5th (1) (5/1 -25%) Templehills
5
5/1(-25%)
(1) Templehills 5/1, C&D winner who posted a creditable second of 5 in handicap chase here (22.6f) 24 days ago. Error-prone veteran but he can't be dismissed.
7
|U| (7) (3/1 +25%) Furkash
3
3/1(+25%)
(7) Furkash 3/1, Won a Fontwell novice (17.7f) on second start over hurdles back in November 2020 but has failed to match that level since, including tried chasing. Has plenty to prove on his seasonal return.
4
|PU| (4) (12/1 +14%) Versatility
12
12/1(+14%)
(4) Versatility 12/1, Temperamental sort who continues out of sorts, third of 5 in handicap chase at Warwick (20f) 28 days ago. Others appeal more.
LTO Selection:
14:40 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Midnight River 3/1, Useful novice hurdler who scored on second chase start in handicap at Wetherby (19.4f) over Christmas. Mixed record otherwise last season, though stamina was probably stretched at Uttoxeter final start.
8
2nd (8) (2.5/1 +38%) Moonlighter
2.5
2.5/1(+38%)
(8) Moonlighter 2.5/1, Rather lost his way last season but is potentially very well treated as a result starting out for an in-form yard. One to note.
7
3rd (7) (3.33/1 +33%) Pencreek
3.33
3.33/1(+33%)
(7) Pencreek 3.33/1, Benefited from the fitting of cheekpieces in the summer, completing a hat-trick at Market Rasen (19.2f, good to firm) in July. Denied by another thriving rival in a match over C&D last time, so merits serious consideration.
9
4th (9) (5.5/1 +39%) Fanzio
5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(9) Fanzio 5.5/1, Fairly useful chaser who ran his best race of the season when 5 lengths second of 4 at Fontwell but was a long way below that level here 12 days ago. Change of headgear.
1
5th (1) (12/1 -71%) Storm Control
12
12/1(-71%)
(1) Storm Control 12/1, Has an all-or-nothing profile but won at Newbury in January and looked likely to follow up in the Sky Bet Chase at Doncaster next time, collared after typically idling in front. Pulled up next 2 starts before a respectable third at Uttoxeter when last seen. Often front runs. Has had a wind op.
5
|PU| (5) (8/1 -23%) Kauto The King
8
8/1(-23%)
(5) Kauto The King 8/1, As good as ever when winning first 3 starts this season but proved no match for another thriving sort off revised mark at Uttoxeter when last seen in July.
3
|PU| (3) (50/1 -127%) Fancy Foundations
50
50/1(-127%)
(3) Fancy Foundations 50/1, Back to form third of 10 in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (19f, good) 55 days ago on final start for Gordon Elliott. Needs to build on that starting out for new yard.
LTO Selection:
15:15 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 3) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(9) Gitche Gumee 1.62/1, Overcame inexperience to make a winning debut in a Kempton bumper (2m) in March and is bred to have a future as a hurdler. Leadng claims.
4
2nd (4) (2/1 +40%) Swapped
2
2/1(+40%)
(4) Swapped 2/1, Landed an AW bumper at Lingfield in December and backed it up with a good second in a more competitive event there next time. Was well held in a Grade 2 event at Aintree on final start but has to enter calculations on hurdles debut.
11
3rd (11) (80/1 -21%) Iceman Dennis
80
80/1(-21%)
(11) Iceman Dennis 80/1, Became disappointing after a promising start in bumpers and was well held in first-time cheekpieces on first completed start over hurdles last week.
12
4th (12) (8/1 +11%) Ilanz
8
8/1(+11%)
(12) Ilanz 8/1, Showed fairly useful form in bumpers, winning tidily on his British/stable debut at Market Rasen in June. Ran at least as well in defeat under a penalty over C&D next time and must enter the reckoning on hurdles debut.
8
5th (8) (11/1 +8%) Decorated
11
11/1(+8%)
(8) Decorated 11/1, Modest bumper winner who showed some promise sent hurdling when second in 6-runner affair at Warwick (2m) 3 weeks ago. Entitled to do better.
1
6th (1) (40/1 -150%) Dondiam
40
40/1(-150%)
(1) Dondiam 40/1, £50,000 buy after a point win but has shown only modest form in bumpers/over hurdles. Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Oliver Greenall.
13
7th (13) (14/1 -27%) I Shut That D'or
14
14/1(-27%)
(13) I Shut That D'or 14/1, Showed plenty when runner-up in a Fontwell bumper on debut. Went backwards at Ludlow last time but should have a future over jumps.
10
8th (10) (33/1 -32%) Hollow Ron
33
33/1(-32%)
(10) Hollow Ron 33/1, 12,500 gns 4-y-o, Beat Hollow gelding. Closely related to point winner. Dam unraced. Won sole start in points (May 11). Wears tongue strap for Rules debut. Also had a breathing op.
7
9th (7) (40/1 -100%) Charging Point
40
40/1(-100%)
(7) Charging Point 40/1, Tongue tied and showed plenty of ability when second in a Market Rasen bumper on debut (9/2) in June, no match for promising winner. Failed to progress at Southwell but not written off now going hurdling.
2
|U| (2) (10/1 -43%) Higher Ground
10
10/1(-43%)
(2) Higher Ground 10/1, Black Sam Bellamy gelding who was hooded for debut and showed plenty to work on when third of 10 in 2m4f maiden hurdle at Worcester on debut 34 days ago, keeping on gradually after bad mistake 2 out. Open to improvement.
5
|U| (5) (125/1 +0%) Arceno's Adventure
125
125/1(+0%)
(5) Arceno's Adventure 125/1, Looked one for the longer term when well held in a junior bumper at Bangor on debut in April.
6
|PU| (6) (18/1 -13%) Blue Bear
18
18/1(-13%)
(6) Blue Bear 18/1, Blue Bresil gelding who failed to justify support in a Warwick bumper on debut in May. First run for yard after leaving Mel Rowley.
14
|PU| (14) (125/1 -89%) Bluebella
125
125/1(-89%)
(14) Bluebella 125/1, Just poor form to date and more likely one for handicaps at longer trips.
LTO Selection:
15:50 Stratford Maiden Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(5) Bebraveforglory 3/1, Suited by the switch to front-running tactics when making winning yard debut over hurdles (21.7f) in February. Favourite next 2 starts over fences but unsuited by drop in trip on each occasion and this distance looks more suitable on reappearance.
2
2nd (2) (10/1 -11%) Top Decision
10
10/1(-11%)
(2) Top Decision 10/1, Modest winning hurdler who showed improved form when coming good over fences at Doncaster in early-2020, scoring by 10 lengths. Shaped as if retaining ability on sole outing following season but not seen since (off over 2 years) so fitness has to be taken on trust.
1
3rd (1) (10/1 -54%) Eureu Du Boulay
10
10/1(-54%)
(1) Eureu Du Boulay 10/1, Down in the weights and offered a bit more when placed twice in the summer. Mini-revival came to a halt back in trip at Warwick last month and others more persuasive.
7
4th (7) (7.5/1 +46%) Ballycorr
7.5
7.5/1(+46%)
(7) Ballycorr 7.5/1, Justified support as he won his first race of any description at Sedgefield in May, a longer trip, fitting of blinkers and the booking of Brian Hughes all in his favour. Shaped better than result at Cartmel later that month and needs considering on reappearance.
8
5th (8) (4/1 +0%) Clear On Top
4
4/1(+0%)
(8) Clear On Top 4/1, No better than mid-field in bumpers/over hurdles but has shown more spark since switched to fences, finishing second at Huntingdon and Uttoxeter in May/June. Unseated rider on recent return to action here but could bounce back.
9
6th (9) (12/1 +40%) Catlin
12
12/1(+40%)
(9) Catlin 12/1, Won a 2-runner handicap at Newcastle (23.4f) with cheekpieces enlisted for the first time in November but well held completed start to end the season. Headgear left off for reappearance.
3
|PU| (3) (3.33/1 -48%) Jack Thunder
3.33
3.33/1(-48%)
(3) Jack Thunder 3.33/1, Runner-up sole completion between the flags and has performed with credit on a few occasions under Rules in bumpers/over hurdles. Tongue strap enlisted and cashed in on a reduced mark on chase debut here 3 weeks ago (19.5f). 5 lb rise won't prevent a bold follow-up bid.
4
|PU| (4) (16/1 +0%) Shortcross Storm
16
16/1(+0%)
(4) Shortcross Storm 16/1, Jumping issues stalled what looked to be a promising chase career and fit from hurdling, he again made too many mistakes back over the larger obstacles at Ffos Las 18 days ago.
6
|PU| (6) (28/1 +30%) O'grady's Boy
28
28/1(+30%)
(6) O'grady's Boy 28/1, Modest maiden at best over hurdles/fences and temperament looks to be getting the better of him over the former set of obstacles.
LTO Selection:
16:25 Stratford Handicap Chase (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(8) Fazayte 5/1, Not long with current yard and ran better than for a while when fifth to Samatian over C&D last time. Well treated if he can build on it.
4
2nd (4) (14/1 +0%) Guguss Collonges
14
14/1(+0%)
(4) Guguss Collonges 14/1, Opened account over fences with front-running tactics adopted in 2½m Plumpton handicap in December. Remained in form since and looks interesting from lower hurdling mark having left Gary Moore in the 8 months he's been off.
10
3rd (10) (1.75/1 +30%) Samatian
1.75
1.75/1(+30%)
(10) Samatian 1.75/1, Career best when winning 15-runner handicap hurdle (11/4) at this C&D (good to soft) 12 days ago, driven out and value extra after making a bad mistake early. Should go well again.
3
4th (3) (33/1 -32%) Scudamore
33
33/1(-32%)
(3) Scudamore 33/1, Fair winner on Flat but hasn't gone on from promising hurdles debut. Only fifth on the level 57 days ago and others make more appeal.
7
5th (7) (28/1 -133%) Gone In Sixty
28
28/1(-133%)
(7) Gone In Sixty 28/1, Showed plenty when runner-up in a Southwell bumper on debut in May. Hasn't matched that over hurdles but finished with running left (lot to do) in a novice here last time. One to note now handicapping.
11
6th (11) (5.5/1 +39%) Rebel Royal
5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(11) Rebel Royal 5.5/1, More consistent than most at this level and bumped into a well-treated rival when second at Fontwell 70 days ago. Respected.
13
7th (13) (12/1 +0%) Mixedwave
12
12/1(+0%)
(13) Mixedwave 12/1, Poor form in bumpers and well held over hurdles. Could step up now switched to handicaps from a basement mark after 9 months off.
12
8th (12) (66/1 -230%) Boys Of Wexford
66
66/1(-230%)
(12) Boys Of Wexford 66/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points. Showed a bit when seventh of 15 in 2m Warwick novice in November but not scaled same heights since. Not the easiest to weigh up after 6 months off.
5
9th (5) (9/1 +64%) Braganza Bay
9
9/1(+64%)
(5) Braganza Bay 9/1, Has been unable to kick on from an eye-catching hurdling debut, pulled up on last two starts. Questions to answer back from 172 days off.
1
10th (1) (10/1 -100%) Star Of Valour
10
10/1(-100%)
(1) Star Of Valour 10/1, Fair on Flat and better effort over hurdles when second in a novice at Newton Abbot a month ago. May do better again on handicap debut.
2
|PU| (2) (14/1 +13%) Iberia
14
14/1(+13%)
(2) Iberia 14/1, Useful on Flat earlier in career. Also showed fair form over hurdles in Ireland but has been operating below that level for current yard. Others hold stronger claims.
6
|PU| (6) (33/1 +18%) Commander Miller
33
33/1(+18%)
(6) Commander Miller 33/1, Crucially saw his race out better when taking a 19f maiden hurdle at Warwick in April. However, not in anything like the same form back in handicaps and others make more appeal.
9
|PU| (9) (33/1 +34%) Baliyad
33
33/1(+34%)
(9) Baliyad 33/1, Won selling event on return but not been in same form since and percentage call is to look elsewhere.

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.
