Races & Results Saturday 16th January 2021
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(1) Will Sting 3.5/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who posted his best effort in novice hurdles when fifth of 15 at Huntingdon (19.6f) 25 days ago. Goes into handicaps now so not ruled out.
6
2nd (6) (6/1 -167%) Frankincense
6
6/1(-167%)
(6) Frankincense 6/1, Lost his way over hurdles in Ireland last year but back on track for new yard and gained breakthrough win in 2m Exeter handicap 74 days ago. That form has worked out really well so leading claims.
2
3rd (2) (5/1 +29%) Pasley
5
5/1(+29%)
(2) Pasley 5/1, Fair ex-Irish 14f winner on Flat who has hinted at promise over hurdles for his new yard; worth keeping an eye on off reduced mark when betting speaks in his favour.
8
4th (8) (5/1 +50%) Memphis Bleek
5
5/1(+50%)
(8) Memphis Bleek 5/1, Fair 10f maiden on Flat for Ivan Furtado but has reached a place only once over hurdles for current handler, seventh at Taunton last time. Falling in the weights but still hard to warm to.
4
5th (4) (7/1 +36%) K'chou Du Pecos AA
7
7/1(+36%)
(4) K'chou Du Pecos AA 7/1, Fair form for Willie Mullins but has yet to match that in two runs this term for new yard after a wind op. Needs to step forward.
10
6th (10) (40/1 +39%) Black Kalarosa
40
40/1(+39%)
(10) Black Kalarosa 40/1, Yet to make the frame in five runs over hurdles, pulled upin 2m Leicester handicap 44 days ago. Cheekpieces reached for now with plenty to prove.
12
7th (12) (8/1 +20%) Mawlood
8
8/1(+20%)
(12) Mawlood 8/1, 11/1, first form over hurdles on handicap bow when never-dangerous fifth of 10 at Fakenham (2m) 27 days ago. Still very hard to make a case for from 5 lb out of the handicap.
7
8th (7) (28/1 -12%) Top Beak
28
28/1(-12%)
(7) Top Beak 28/1, Fair maiden on Flat, but majority of his efforts in this sphere have been underwhelming. Brought down early at Catteick latest but others still appeal more.
9
|U| (9) (9/1 -20%) Magnificent Ben
9
9/1(-20%)
(9) Magnificent Ben 9/1, Winning pointer who has hinted at promise in three runs over hurdles. Cheekpieces fitted for his handicap bow and no surprise to see him step forward now.
3
|PU| (3) (22/1 -57%) The Garrison
22
22/1(-57%)
(3) The Garrison 22/1, Opened his account in 2m Uttoxeter handicap in October but below that level subsequently, turning in poor effort at Wincanton 21 days ago. Others appeal more.
11
|PU| (11) (33/1 +34%) Jawshan
33
33/1(+34%)
(11) Jawshan 33/1, Hasn't fired in a handful of runs on the Flat this year and fared little better back over hurdles at Taunton and Doncaster. Visor replaces cheekpieces now but hard to make a case for.

2
1st (2) (1.5/1 -20%) Sky Pirate
1.5
1.5/1(-20%)
(2) Sky Pirate 1.5/1, Strong traveller who looked half-hearted despite finishing a good second on return at Wetherby. Proved a different proposition winning hard held at Cheltenham 5 weeks ago so should feature up 11 lb.
3
2nd (3) (2.75/1 -22%) Amoola Gold
2.75
2.75/1(-22%)
(3) Amoola Gold 2.75/1, Well prepared to make successful return at Wetherby and defied a 5 lb rise when following up at Ascot 17 days later. Left with too much to do behind First Flow last time so rates a leading player.
6
3rd (6) (6/1 +29%) Generous Day
6
6/1(+29%)
(6) Generous Day 6/1, Winner of 3 of his 12 starts over fences and ran better than for a while having dropped so far in the weights when third at Ludlow last month. Bit to find with some of these rivals, however.
1
4th (1) (14/1 -17%) Destrier
14
14/1(-17%)
(1) Destrier 14/1, Relished the switch to chasing in 2018/19, winning at Southwell/Ayr before good third in Grade 1 Maghull at Aintree. Not knocked about at Doncaster when last seen 10 months ago and may need this run.
5
5th (5) (4/1 +38%) Equus Millar
4
4/1(+38%)
(5) Equus Millar 4/1, Multiple hurdles winner who proved better than ever to double his tally over the larger obstacles at Haydock 4 weeks ago. Up 5 lb but should remain competitive.
4
6th (4) (40/1 -43%) Dustin Des Mottes
40
40/1(-43%)
(4) Dustin Des Mottes 40/1, French import who has yet to win on these shores. Put in a good shift when runner-up back from 10 months off at Fontwell (17.8f) but disappointed both starts since. Has left Dr Richard Newland.
LTO Selection:
13:15 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 2) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(1) Next Destination 0.91/1, Grade 1 novice hurdle winner for Willie Mullins in 2017/18 and took to chasing straight away when winning Grade 2 at Newbury on second start for this yard. More to come and the one to beat.
2
2nd (2) (1.88/1 +6%) Fiddlerontheroof
1.88
1.88/1(+6%)
(2) Fiddlerontheroof 1.88/1, Tolworth winner last season and off the mark over fences at Exeter (19.2f) in November. Good runner-up efforts in Grade 2s at Newbury and Ascot since. Up in trip.
3
3rd (3) (5/1 +0%) Golan Fortune
5
5/1(+0%)
(3) Golan Fortune 5/1, Useful hurdler who made winning start over fences in 3m Ludlow novice chase. Good effort when fourth in Grade 1 at Kempton since so claims can be made.
LTO Selection:
13:50 Warwick Maiden Chase (Class 1) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(10) Oscar Elite 5/1, Winning pointer at third attempt and looked useful when slamming the opposition on his Chepstow Rules debut. Followed up in 3-runner affair there (23.6f) last time and is the type to go on improving.
7
(7) (5.5/1 +45%) Midnight River
5.5
5.5/1(+45%)
(7) Midnight River 5.5/1, Placed in strong bumpers and made a successful hurdling bow at Uttoxeter on return. Good second at Cheltenham before narrowly resuming winning ways at Leicester (20.5f) last time. Should go well.
4
(4) (8/1 -14%) Jay Bee Why
8
8/1(-14%)
(4) Jay Bee Why 8/1, Irish point winner who was well held in a Newbury bumper, but proved a different proposition sent hurdling when forging clear in good style in 17-runner maiden over C&D last month. Sure to progress.
12
(12) (9/1 -13%) Pure Bliss
9
9/1(-13%)
(12) Pure Bliss 9/1, Point/bumper winner who made it 2-2 over hurdles when landing a mares' novice at Exeter (heavy) 30 days ago. Further progress likely, so not completely ruled out now taking on the boys up in grade.
5
(5) (11/1 -10%) Lord Of Kerak
11
11/1(-10%)
(5) Lord Of Kerak 11/1, Good pedigree and struck at the third time of asking over hurdles in 7-runner novice at Uttoxeter (19.9f, heavy) last month, quickly stretching clear run-in. Should go on improving.
11
(11) (16/1 +11%) Sending Love
16
16/1(+11%)
(11) Sending Love 16/1, Clearly had an issue or 2 but was well prepared to make third Rules start a winning one after 8 months off at Ffos Las. Ran about as well as could have been expected up in grade at Sandown last time.
2
(2) (500/1 -233%) Fitz Well
500
500/1(-233%)
(2) Fitz Well 500/1, Fair fourth of 11 in maiden hurdle at Hereford on debut, but failed by a long way to repeat that effort when tailed off at Newbury 18 days ago. Easy to look elsewhere.
3
(3) (500/1 -67%) Glen Mooar
500
500/1(-67%)
(3) Glen Mooar 500/1, Well held in bumper/both starts over hurdles.
1
1st (1) (3.5/1 +46%) Adrimel
3.5
3.5/1(+46%)
(1) Adrimel 3.5/1, Dual bumper winner who has made a promising start to his hurdling career, supplementing Sandown maiden win with success in introductory event at Haydock. Cheekpieces go on and can progress further.
8
2nd (8) (8/1 +33%) Mint Condition
8
8/1(+33%)
(8) Mint Condition 8/1, Ex-pointer who has returned an improved model, making it 3 wins from 4 starts this season in 13-runner handicap at Wetherby (21.2f) 3 weeks ago. May well have more to offer.
6
3rd (6) (5.5/1 -38%) Make Me A Believer
5.5
5.5/1(-38%)
(6) Make Me A Believer 5.5/1, Chepstow bumper winner who was unlucky to bump into Bear Ghylls on hurdling debut before going one better in determined fashion at Cheltenham (16.8f). Can go on improving back up in trip.
LTO Selection:
14:25 Warwick Novices Hurdle (Class 1) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(4) Storm Control 5.5/1, Useful chaser who has proved better than ever up in trip this season, landing back-to-back Cheltenham handicaps in recent months. Fact he idled markedly latest suggests 5 lb rise may be within reach
8
(8) (7/1 -27%) Captain Chaos
7
7/1(-27%)
(8) Captain Chaos 7/1, Good second in this race 12 months ago prior to facile success in the Grimthorpe at Doncaster. Well below best in trio of starts this term but mark has eased and better expected in refitted blinkers.
11
(11) (7/1 +30%) Django Django
7
7/1(+30%)
(11) Django Django 7/1, Better than ever when opening chase account in 3m Newbury handicap 12 months ago but he's disappointed since, beaten when blundering 3 out back at that venue last month. Cheekpieces reached for.
3
(3) (12/1 +0%) The Hollow Ginge
12
12/1(+0%)
(3) The Hollow Ginge 12/1, Very useful staying chaser on his day, doing best of those held up when fourth in Ladbrokes Trophy (26f) on his penultimate start. Unseated in Welsh National since but he's not one to dismiss lightly.
7
(7) (20/1 -25%) Late Romantic
20
20/1(-25%)
(7) Late Romantic 20/1, Veteran who shrugged aside a disappointing reappearance when getting up late in Haydock veterans' event (heavy) at the start of last month. However, this requires more from career-high mark.
2
(2) (25/1 -56%) Walk In The Mill
25
25/1(-56%)
(2) Walk In The Mill 25/1, Has excelled over the National fences in recent seasons, winning 2 of the last 3 renewals of the Becher Chase. Fell in this season's race but yard in good form and blinkers may put an edge on him now.
12
(12) (25/1 +0%) Didero Vallis
25
25/1(+0%)
(12) Didero Vallis 25/1, Dual winner over fences in 2018 and not disgraced after 10 months off when sixth in 3m Ascot handicap on return. Lacklustre display in Grand Sefton at Aintree but bounce back certainly not ruled out.
1
(1) (28/1 -27%) Ballyoptic
28
28/1(-27%)
(1) Ballyoptic 28/1, Very smart on his day, winning Charlie Hall and 3m handicap at Ascot (both heavy) last season. Not at his best in 2 starts so far this term but this less demanding and conditions are in his favour.
10
(10) (50/1 -52%) Red Infantry
50
50/1(-52%)
(10) Red Infantry 50/1, Course winner who last tasted success at Haydock in November 2018. Last seen running respectably in fifth at Cheltenham 15 months ago so likely to need this outing after a lengthy absence.
13
(13) (50/1 -25%) Petite Power
50
50/1(-25%)
(13) Petite Power 50/1, Veteran who cashed in off lower marks last winter prior to solid placed efforts (third in this race 12 months ago). Not at his best so far this campaign and he's operating from out of weights here.
6
1st (6) (3.5/1 +13%) Notachance
3.5
3.5/1(+13%)
(6) Notachance 3.5/1, Low-mileage 7-y-o who posted career-best display on back of 10 months off to score at Bangor (3m) in November, jumping soundly and staying on well. Even longer trip worth exploring on that evidence.
9
2nd (9) (12/1 +0%) Achille
12
12/1(+0%)
(9) Achille 12/1, Progressed well during 2018/19 campaign, winning 3 of his 5 starts at around 3m. Good second in Grade handicap at Cheltenham in November 2019 and whilst absent since he's gone well fresh previously.
5
3rd (5) (3.5/1 +30%) Le Breuil
3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(5) Le Breuil 3.5/1, Smart staying chaser who landed NH Chase at Cheltenham in 2019. Solid efforts in defeat both starts this term, better than the result when third in Becher at Aintree last month. Possibilities.
LTO Selection:
15:00 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 1) 29f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 1 race.
(10) Espion 7/1, Uttoxeter novice winner on final start of last term and has acquitted himself well on 2 of his 3 starts in handicaps this time round. However, needs to raise his game a touch in order to take this.
6
(6) (8/1 +20%) Flemcara
8
8/1(+20%)
(6) Flemcara 8/1, Back to form the last twice, building on encouraging Sandown effort in December when resuming winning ways at Doncaster (24.4f) later that month. However, more needed up 5 lb in this tougher race.
4
(4) (9/1 -13%) Kepagge
9
9/1(-13%)
(4) Kepagge 9/1, Winner of first 3 starts under Rules last term, namely a bumper and two small-field novice hurdles. Decent fourth on return/handicap bow at Cheltenham (21f) and likely to appreciate this stiffer test.
7
(7) (10/1 -43%) Potters Corner
10
10/1(-43%)
(7) Potters Corner 10/1, Better than ever last term, successful in this sphere at Chepstow prior to Welsh National success. Reappearance effort in a Cheltenham cross-country event was respectable and he commands respect.
3
(3) (14/1 -27%) Ardlethen
14
14/1(-27%)
(3) Ardlethen 14/1, Useful chaser who hasn't disgraced himself in strong races on both completed starts this season. Latest start run in this sphere was back in April 2019, but mark looks fair and he's not discounted.
9
(9) (16/1 +36%) The Macon Lugnatic
16
16/1(+36%)
(9) The Macon Lugnatic 16/1, Bumper winner who showed a cracking attitude to land a couple of novice hurdles at Doncaster last term. Disappointing on first attempt at 3m on reappearance and now goes handicapping in headgear.
13
(13) (16/1 +36%) Saint Dalina
16
16/1(+36%)
(13) Saint Dalina 16/1, Bolted up at Uttoxeter last month, but put firmly in her place by Mr Harp there 10 days later and this is a big ask, particularly bearing in mind that she's 4 lb out of the handicap.
1
(1) (22/1 -38%) Tobefair
22
22/1(-38%)
(1) Tobefair 22/1, Good record at Cheltenham and far from disgraced when fourth in a 3m handicap there on penultimate start. Third in this race back in 2018, but much higher in the weights nowadays and looks vulnerable.
11
(11) (28/1 +15%) The Captains Inn
28
28/1(+15%)
(11) The Captains Inn 28/1, Winner of novice hurdles at Leicester and Uttoxeter during 2018/19 campaign, but missed whole of last season and Chepstow reappearance effort in December was hardly promising. Cheekpeices applied.
8
(8) (66/1 -65%) Geordie Des Champs
66
66/1(-65%)
(8) Geordie Des Champs 66/1, Talented hurdler/chaser, but absent since misfiring in an Ascot handicap chase back in November 2018, so his wellbeing has to be taken on trust.
2
1st (2) (5/1 +0%) Imperial Alcazar
5
5/1(+0%)
(2) Imperial Alcazar 5/1, Useful bumper/hurdle winner who shaped as if needing first run for 10 months when fading ninth of 17 in 3m Haydock handicap in November. Still early days for this 7-y-o and he needs considering.
12
2nd (12) (7/1 +30%) Mr Harp
7
7/1(+30%)
(12) Mr Harp 7/1, Placed in Southwell novice events won by the very promising Barbados Buck's prior to handicap debut success at Uttoxeter (23.3f). Now 8 lb higher in a much stronger race, but he's hardly exposed.
5
3rd (5) (4.5/1 -13%) Come On Teddy
4.5
4.5/1(-13%)
(5) Come On Teddy 4.5/1, Left reappearance effort well behind when landing a competitive 12-runner Cheltenham handicap (3m) in good style last month. 7 lb rise tolerable and he probably has more to offer.

(2) (5/1 +41%) Baxter Basics
5
5/1(+41%)
(2) Baxter Basics 5/1, £30,000 Getaway gelding. Dam, ran once in bumper/placed sole start in Irish points, closely related to useful hurdler/smart chaser (stayed 3m) Ballybolley. Yard 1-22 in bumpers this season.
5
(5) (7/1 -100%) Ted's Friend
7
7/1(-100%)
(5) Ted's Friend 7/1, Dylan Thomas brother to fairly useful hurdler Fern Hill, and half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Flow Away. Stable does well in bumpers. Likely type.
1
(1) (7/1 +7%) Barnard Castle
7
7/1(+7%)
(1) Barnard Castle 7/1, €26,000 Oscar gelding. Half-brother to fair chaser Creative Inerta. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (stays 25f) Pym. Betting should guide to expectations on debut.
6
(6) (66/1 -32%) Teddy The Knight
66
66/1(-32%)
(6) Teddy The Knight 66/1, Kayf Tara gelding. Brother to fairly useful chaser Like It A Lot and fair hurdler/chaser Billy Hicks. Yard 0-15 in bumpers in last 5 seasons. Could only consider if backed.
3
(3) (100/1 -25%) Doyens De Ante
100
100/1(-25%)
(3) Doyens De Ante 100/1, €6,000 Doyen gelding. Half-brother to fair hurdler Penneys Hun and bumper winner/modest hurdler Not The Chablis. Perhaps best watched for rookie trainer who has had just the 1 winner so far.
4
1st (4) (1/1 -20%) Gold Bullion

1/1(-20%)
(4) Gold Bullion 1/1, €90,000 Fame And Glory gelding. Makes obvious paper for a top stable which continues in excellent form.
7

5
5/1(+17%)
(7) Code Name Lise 5/1, €85,000 Fame And Glory mare. Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/useful hurdler (stayed 21f) Welsh Shadow. Yard gets the odd bumper winner. Needs monitoring in betting.

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.
