Races & Results Tuesday 24th September 2024
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(5) Smurfette 9/2, Best effort so far over fences when second of 10 at Fontwell 3 weeks ago, no match for the winner. Can make her presence felt. Second to a progressive subsequent winner last month; high on the list.
12
2nd (12) (6/1 +82%) School For Scandal
6
6/1(+82%)
(12) School For Scandal 6/1, Not the most reliable. Bounced back to form when second at Hereford in February but not the biggest surprise that he's failed to reproduce that in his 5 outings since. Ran well in cheekpieces in February but his form has slumped again since.
3
3rd (3) (10/3 -67%) Get With It
3.333333
10/3(-67%)
(3) Get With It 10/3, Dual-chase scorer around 3m. Below par last season and sold from Rose Dobbin £6,000 in May. Gambled on and hit the frame both starts for this yard in recent weeks, keeping on for second having conceded first run at Worcester. Major claims with cheekpieces added. Two good runs for new yard this summer (3m2f/2m7f); down in trip with cheekpieces on.
11
4th (11) (6/1 +50%) Ballinoulart
6
6/1(+50%)
(11) Ballinoulart 6/1, Remains a maiden but made the frame once more since switched to chasing when fourth at Worcester (23f) in June. Shaped like a non-stayer starting out for this yard at Newton Abbot (25.8f) last month but also well held at Stratford since. Largely consistent for Alastair Ralph but has disappointed on both starts for new stable.
2
5th (2) (14/1 -40%) Abaya Du Mathan
14
14/1(-40%)
(2) Abaya Du Mathan 14/1, Has done well since joining current yard, winning twice earlier in the year and shaping as if still in form at Uttoxeter in July. Just mid-field at Worcester since but now just 1 lb above last successful mark. Not quite at best on last two outings but versatile regarding ground and on workable mark.
1
6th (1) (14/1 -40%) Couldbeaweapon
14
14/1(-40%)
(1) Couldbeaweapon 14/1, Fair winner at 16f over hurdles but only modest form at best over fences, weakening quickly on return from a break at Worcester in July. Has unconvincing record over fences but ran well to a point at Worcester last time.
4
7th (4) (18/1 -13%) Jony Max
18
18/1(-13%)
(4) Jony Max 18/1, Continues to fall in the weights without showing any sign of taking advantage, again down the field despite attracting support at Stratford. Out of form since returning from a break in May and probably better over further.
14
8th (14) (33/1 +18%) Beannaigh Do
33
33/1(+18%)
(14) Beannaigh Do 33/1, Has gone the wrong way since chase debut and he's out of the handicap again here. 0-20 under rules; 5lb out of the weights and makes only limited appeal.
8
|PU| (8) (7/1 +79%) Guguss Collonges
7
7/1(+79%)
(8) Guguss Collonges 7/1, Successful twice over fences last autumn but went off the boil as 2023/24 progressed and no impact both starts this summer. Back in trip. Dual chase winner last November but seems badly to have lost his way this year.
7
|PU| (7) (12/1 -118%) Pawpaw
12
12/1(-118%)
(7) Pawpaw 12/1, Down in the weights and on a going day when third at Worcester 3 weeks ago. Moody customer nowadays so just as likely to run badly this time. Arrested decline when close third at Worcester last month; a possible if in same form here.
9
|PU| (9) (20/1 -150%) Hey Day Baby
20
20/1(-150%)
(9) Hey Day Baby 20/1, Former point winner looked a different proposition on second chase start when cruising home at Market Rasen (21.4f, good to firm) last month. Jumped awkwardly when brushed aside from 12 lb higher mark at Newton Abbot. Burst into life with 12l win last month but has been pulled up since; hard to predict.
10
|PU| (10) (40/1 -515%) Lonimoss Bareliere
40
40/1(-515%)
(10) Lonimoss Bareliere 40/1, Long-standing maiden but excelled himself from out of the weights when second at Stratford in July. 1 lb higher now and has a shout if in the same form. Went close in a weak race in July but is now 0-36 under all codes; others preferred.
6
|PU| (6) (50/1 -52%) Crobally Boy
50
50/1(-52%)
(6) Crobally Boy 50/1, Long-standing maiden in Ireland, leaving John Joseph Hanlon having made several mistakes at Listowel when last seen under Rules 2 years ago. Patchy form in points of late. Not seen under rules since 2022 and only subsequent point win came in three-runner maiden.
13:47 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
GET WITH IT beat Pawpaw (third) when occupying the runner-up berth over 2m7f at Worcester on his latest outing and the handicapper may have been kind to only put him up 1lb for that effort. Dan Skelton's charge takes a drop in trip and has cheekpieces applied for the first time, which could bring out the improvement required to go one better. Smurfette produced a better effort to finish second in this grade at Fontwell last time and could have a say off the same mark, while Lonimoss Bareliere completes the shortlist.
This drop in trip isn't certain to suit GET WITH IT but it surely won't be long before he opens his account for Dan Skelton and he's still comfortably the most persuasive option. Smurfette isn't fully exposed so she needs considering, along with Lonimoss Bareliere.
A strong-finishing second at Worcester this month, GET WITH IT can go one better here. Smurfette is second choice.
(1) Dodger Long 13/8, Fair in bumpers and won 10-runner juvenile hurdle at Taunton (16.5f, soft) in cosy fashion in March. Has recorded good runner-up efforts under a penalty this summer and looks the obvious danger to Yokkell. Soft-ground winner in March and twice went close on good ground for new stable last month.
5
2nd (5) (10/11 -82%) Yokkell
0.909091
10/11(-82%)
(5) Yokkell 10/11, Fairly useful on Flat and translated that ability to hurdles at the first time of asking when scoring by 19 lengths at Down Royal at the end of August. Hard to beat with improvement likely. Useful Flat racer; won comfortably by 19l on recent hurdling debut at Down Royal.
2
3rd (2) (80/1 -220%) Fidendum
80
80/1(-220%)
(2) Fidendum 80/1, Has shown ability but also looked a hard ride in bumpers, tending to pull hard. Hurdles need to help him to settle better. Not beaten far in any of three bumpers but needs to improve and learn to settle.
3
4th (3) (100/1 -203%) Just Four Fame
100
100/1(-203%)
(3) Just Four Fame 100/1, Third in an Aintree bumper in May 2022 but not seen again until last of 5 in maiden hurdle at Wincanton in February. Off a further 6 months since. Third in Aintree bumper in May 2022 but tailed off when reappearing over hurdles this year.
4
5th (4) (5/1 +17%) Latenightrumble
5
5/1(+17%)
(4) Latenightrumble 5/1, Half-brother to Latenightpass. Four-time point winner who ran to a fair level when second in a 3¼m Cheltenham hunter chase in May. Drops significantly in trip now hurdling and suspicion he won't have the pace to live with the previous hurdle winners in this line-up. Creditable second in 3m2f hunter chase on rules debut in May; might find 2m a bit sharp.
6
6th (6) (33/1 0%) Soldier's Leap
33
33/1(0%)
(6) Soldier's Leap 33/1, Runner-up in a point in May but well held on Worcester hurdle debut 8 days ago. Close second on point debut in May but tailed off in a recent maiden hurdle.
14:20 Warwick Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Harry Skelton is an interesting jockey booking aboard Latenightrumble, who makes his first start over hurdles after finishing second in a hunters' chase at Cheltenham in May. He is one to watch in the market, but the more solid option appears to be YOKKELL, who bolted up on her first start over hurdles at Down Royal last month. If John McConnell's mare can reproduce anything like that display, she could prove very difficult to beat. Dodger Long is another to keep an eye on.
This looks a very good chance for wide-margin Down Royal scorer YOKKEL to make it 2-2 over hurdles. Dodger Long can follow John McConnell's Irish raider home.
Useful Flat racer YOKKELL made a pleasing start to her hurdling career last month and looks the one to beat.
(2) G A Henty 10/3, Didn't need to improve to justify short odds 23f novice hurdle at Market Rasen in June. Creditable third in handicap hurdle and chase since and should be in the thick of things here. Rallying third (close up) on his switch to fences over this far at Market Rasen; same mark.
3
2nd (3) (5/1 -82%) Roll With It
5
5/1(-82%)
(3) Roll With It 5/1, Hurdles winner for Richard Spencer last summer and 2 chase wins for new yard this season, scoring by 10 lengths over 23f at Worcester last time. Should remain very competitive despite a 10 lb rise. Clearcut Worcester win has come at a cost of 10lb but he's on a roll.
6
3rd (6) (14/1 +13%) Exmoor Forest
14
14/1(+13%)
(6) Exmoor Forest 14/1, Got back on the up in first-time cheekpieces when landing 9-runner handicap chase at Bangor (3m, good) in July but pulled up at Market Rasen since. Had taken pretty well to fences until pulling up the last time two months ago.
7
4th (7) (11/2 +0%) Phil De Pail
5.5
11/2(+0%)
(7) Phil De Pail 11/2, Took his advantage of his reduced mark over 3m at Uttoxeter in June and only just denied off 7 lb higher at Market Rasen the following month. Same mark here back from 11 weeks off. First and second in his two completed chases and he's open to further progress.
8
5th (8) (12/1 +40%) Illogical Logic
12
12/1(+40%)
(8) Illogical Logic 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden who has yet to make an impact in handicaps, including Worcester chase debut 23 days ago. 0-6 over hurdles and ended up tailed off on his switch to fences 23 days ago (2m4f).
1
6th (1) (10/1 +9%) Itso Fury
10
10/1(+9%)
(1) Itso Fury 10/1, Useful handicap hurdler. Below that level in 2 chase starts this summer but his mark has come down 8 lb and it's too soon think he won't make the grade over fences. Defied a higher mark over hurdles but he hasn't looked a natural in either of his chases.
5
|PU| (5) (2/1 +60%) Crypto Currency
2
2/1(+60%)
(5) Crypto Currency 2/1, Low-mileage 6-y-o who has been placed in 3 handicap chases over 2½m this summer. The step up to 3m is a possible source for improvement. Tom Bellamy seemingly prefers him to stablemate Galloping Pride. Finished his final race out strongly and stepping up to 3m should be just the ticket.
14:55 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 4) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
ROLL WITH IT picked his way through the field to bolt up by 10 lengths in this grade at Worcester on his most recent outing and a 10lb rise might not be enough to halt him. The eight-year-old has lots in his favour and he looks the one to be on. G A Henty wasn't disgraced when third on his chase debut Market Rasen last time and he would be dangerous to dismiss off an unchanged mark, while Galloping Pride is another to watch out for.
The vote in a tight-looking handicap goes to Dan Skelton's G A HENTY. Roll With It and Emma Lavelle pair Crypto Currency and Galloping Pride may give him most to do.
This is competitive but CRYPTO CURRENCY appears to be crying out for this step up to 3m. G A Henty heads the dangers.
(5) Get Up Mush 7/4, Dual 2m4f winner this summer and he posted a solid fourth of 7 in handicap chase at Newton Abbot (21f, good to firm, 5/4) 24 days ago. Bold showing is on the cards now stepping up in trip. 2-4 over fences since a long absence; could have more to offer now upped in trip.
8
2nd (8) (7/2 +42%) Planned Paradise
3.5
7/2(+42%)
(8) Planned Paradise 7/2, Scored at Perth in the summer and jumped better than usual when third of 5 in 2m4f Fontwell handicap chase last time. One to consider. Won off a reduced mark this summer but has not yet built on that performance; up in grade.
1
3rd (1) (11/2 -57%) Pull Again Green
5.5
11/2(-57%)
(1) Pull Again Green 11/2, Got back on track reverted to fences when third of 6 in handicap chase at Worcester (23f, good) 27 days ago. Ought to be in the shake-up. Inconsistent over last year or so but posted sound effort on latest outing.
7
4th (7) (40/1 -60%) Innisfree Lad
40
40/1(-60%)
(7) Innisfree Lad 40/1, Not the most reliable on balance and he was pulled up in handicap chase at Chepstow (26.2f, good) 151 days ago. Cheekpieces go back on with something to prove. Good stalwart over the years; inconsistent nowadays but comes here fresh; not ruled out.
2
5th (2) (4/1 +27%) Castle Robin
4
4/1(+27%)
(2) Castle Robin 4/1, Had wind op/off 6 months since coming in a below-par seventh of 10 in handicap chase at Sandown (24.2f, good to soft). Needs to hit the ground running. Ended last season's light campaign with two 36l defeats but has good record when fresh.
4
6th (4) (10/1 -54%) Sacre Coeur
10
10/1(-54%)
(4) Sacre Coeur 10/1, Three-time chase winner last season who was set a lot to do when fourth of six in 17f handicap chase at Stratford 17 days ago. Possibilities off an easing mark. Keen-going front-running; not quite at best lately but versatile ground-wise; a possible.
6
7th (6) (16/1 +36%) Jimmy The Digger
16
16/1(+36%)
(6) Jimmy The Digger 16/1, Looked out of sorts when last seen 7 months ago, pulled up in handicap chase at Market Rasen (23.9f, soft). Needs to get back on track. Out of form during light campaign last season; current ability tricky to gauge.
15:30 Warwick Handicap Chase (Class 3) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
PULL AGAIN GREEN appreciated last month's return to the larger obstacles when finishing a decent third at Worcester. He has his favoured ground once again and Fergal O'Brien's charge can resume winning ways in this lower grade. Get Up Mush has won two of his four starts over fences so far and looks worth a try over this extra distance. Harry Skelton's presence on the latter suggests he's preferred to stablemate Sacre Coeur, while Planned Paradise is another upped in trip with a shout.
GET UP MUSH can resume his progress and is fancied to resume winning ways at the chief expense of Pull Again Green, who got back to form when third at Worcester. Sacre Coeur, a stablemate of the selection, is another worthy of respect in an open handicap chase.
Low-mileage 6yo GET UP MUSH (nap) has made a bright start to his chasing career this season and may improve again over this new trip.
(9) Apples Moon 12/1, From the family of very smart hurdler/chaser Finian's Oscar. Little impact in bumper/3 races over hurdles. Improvement needed now handicapping up in trip. Unexposed after only three hurdle starts but needs improvement on handicap debut.
3
2nd (3) (13/8 +7%) Fashionelle
1.625
13/8(+7%)
(3) Fashionelle 13/8, Off the mark in similar event at Worcester last week, proving a different proposition with a more positive ride bringing out the best in her. Good shout under a penalty. Won readily at Worcester last week and could still be well treated under 7lb penalty.
5
3rd (5) (9/1 -29%) Faerie Cutlass
9
9/1(-29%)
(5) Faerie Cutlass 9/1, Won similar handicap at Worcester early last season but not been in same form more recently, looking held in a share of fourth when falling heavily 3 out there 3 weeks ago. Placed on three of her five hurdling starts since the spring; more appealing than most.
8
4th (8) (12/1 +52%) Regally Blonde
12
12/1(+52%)
(8) Regally Blonde 12/1, Fairly useful Flat winner in Ireland but yet to match that level over hurdles, finding nothing off the bridle a couple of times in handicaps. Cheekpieces added to tongue tie now back from 5 months off. 0-8 over hurdles; returns from break in cheekpieces and with quite a lot to prove.
13
5th (13) (18/1 -13%) Bella Ciao
18
18/1(-13%)
(13) Bella Ciao 18/1, Made the frame in a couple of handicaps at Southwell in summer 2023 and may have needed July Uttoxeter return back from a year off. Headgear back on. Good second over 3m in summer 2023; returned from one-year absence with a lesser effort.
1
6th (1) (9/2 +63%) I Am Gonna Be
4.5
9/2(+63%)
(1) I Am Gonna Be 9/2, Fairly useful bumper/hurdles winner but well held the last twice having had another breathing operation in-between. Down to another career-low mark. Respectable fifth in stronger race than this when back over hurdles last month.
7
7th (7) (8/1 +20%) The Midwife
8
8/1(+20%)
(7) The Midwife 8/1, Point winner who showed improved form under Rules when striking on her handicap bow at Market Rasen (21f) in February. Not so good since but handicapper giving her some slack. 25-1 winner off this mark in February but not in same form afterwards; back from break.
11
8th (11) (25/1 +24%) Olivia Kate
25
25/1(+24%)
(11) Olivia Kate 25/1, Couple of heavy defeats in handicap hurdles and needs to improve back up in trip now fitted with cheekpieces. 50-1 third in 2m novice in June but well down the field in two handicaps since.
10
9th (10) (7/1 +13%) Valentine Getaway
7
7/1(+13%)
(10) Valentine Getaway 7/1, Couple of good placed efforts over further in the spring but well held at Worcester the last twice. Drops in trip from career-low mark as she continues to seek a first success. Good second at Huntingdon in May but form has dipped since; now 0-13 over hurdles.
6
10th (6) (25/1 -213%) Hot Fizzy Lizzy
25
25/1(-213%)
(6) Hot Fizzy Lizzy 25/1, Fair bumper winner who offered definite signs of promise over hurdles in her qualifying runs but easy to back and shaped as if amiss making her handicap debut in a first-time tongue strap at Stratford 9 weeks ago, reportedly losing her action. Placed in 2m Stratford maiden in July and had excuse when pulled up in a handicap there.
14
|PU| (14) (66/1 -32%) All Blues
66
66/1(-32%)
(14) All Blues 66/1, Poor maiden under both codes. Safely held off lowly marks in all three handicap hurdles (2m-2m5f).
16:05 Warwick Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
It could pay to stick with last week's Worcester winner FASHIONELLE in this. The unexposed five-year-old forged clear of her rivals in the closing stages and can defy a 7lb penalty with more to come from her. Leave Her To Me makes her handicap debut having won a maiden hurdle at Uttoxeter in July and she also has scope for further progress, while I Am Gonna Be is a likely improver on her second start after a wind operation.
FASHIONELLE did the job readily under a more positive ride at Worcester last week and can follow up under a penalty. Leave Her To Me and Duchamps Art are a couple of the potential dangers.
Fashionelle is respected under her penalty but preference is for class-dropper I AM GONNA BE, who ran quite well last month.
(6) Craven Bay 4/1, Winner of 23f Worcester maiden hurdle last summer and has posted respectable efforts in a couple of handicaps since returning to action in July. Eased 2 lb since latest run and he's of strong interest now faced with a stiffer test on this debut for new yard. Keeping on over 2m7f the last time (beaten 9l) and this far is worth a go.
4
2nd (4) (5/2 +0%) Chatty Chich
2.5
5/2(+0%)
(4) Chatty Chich 5/2, Has improved since switched to handicaps and faced with a stiffer test, scoring on good ground at Huntingdon (25f) and Fakenham (23.4f) prior to finishing a creditable third when bidding for the hat-trick dropped to 2½m at Worcester last time. Very much a player back up in trip here. 2m4f too sharp last time when bidding for a hat-trick; softening ground a worry.
2
3rd (2) (33/1 +18%) Butler's Brief
33
33/1(+18%)
(2) Butler's Brief 33/1, Now 11 lb lower than for this latest win at Kelso last November but with good reason, having barely beaten a rival home in 4 subsequent completions. The blinkers he sported for the first time at Bangor recently are swiftly replaced with his usual cheekpieces. On a good mark but has struggled in cheekpieces/blinkers since returning from a break.
10
4th (10) (4/1 +43%) Time To Tinker
4
4/1(+43%)
(10) Time To Tinker 4/1, Has spent a long time in the doldrums (last win was gained back in November 2021) but he stopped the slide, to an extent, when third in a 10-runner Bangor handicap (19.6f, good) earlier this month. Solid each-way chance if able to build on that. An improved run for this yard when a 3l third at Bangor but that was over 2m3f.
7
5th (7) (9/1 -13%) Ballyvaughan Bay
9
9/1(-13%)
(7) Ballyvaughan Bay 9/1, Took a sizeable step forward when opening his account upped to 3m at Southwell in June but not in quite the same form when fifth off this mark at Stratford the following month. Others preferred. Still lightly raced and unlikely that he's handicapped out of it (6lb above his win).
3
6th (3) (25/1 +24%) Dublin Four
25
25/1(+24%)
(3) Dublin Four 25/1, Largely performed with credit over fences during his time with Fergal O'Brien but has offered precious little in 4 runs for this yard since returning from a 14-month absence in May. Tailed off in his last hurdle race and suffered a similar fate in three subsequent chases.
1
7th (1) (5/1 -67%) Dynamite Kentucky
5
5/1(-67%)
(1) Dynamite Kentucky 5/1, Snapped a losing run stretching back to January 2022 when seeing off 10 rivals at Worcester (23f, good) last month. Remains on a fair mark back up 5 lb and, with no concerns stamina-wise, he's entitled to have a say in the finish. He won't mind the recent rain and a lack of stamina won't stop him.
5
|F| (5) (18/1 +10%) Highland Frolic
18
18/1(+10%)
(5) Highland Frolic 18/1, Fairly useful form on the Flat for the Gosdens and opened hurdles account in 2m Plumpton maiden in April 2023. However, he was pulled up on his latest start in this sphere last October and has failed to fire on 2 of his 3 starts on the level since changing hands during the spring. Maiden hurdle winner in 2023; mostly disappointing since then under both codes.
16:40 Warwick Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Chatty Chich has struck in two of her last three starts and even a repeat of her most recent third at Worcester might put her into contention. However, DYNAMITE KENTUCKY looks the way to go. The nine-year-old may have been worth more than the winning margin suggests over 2m7f at Worcester last month and he should have no issues with this extra distance to defy his 5lb rise. Fine By Me is the pick of the remainder.
Low-mileage 8-y-o CRAVEN BAY shaped as though this stamina test would be right up his street when third over 23f at Worcester last time and he could be the answer. Dynamite Kentucky is feared most on the back of his success at the aforementioned course, while Chatty Chich has to enter calculations and both Fine By Me and Time To Tinker merit respect, too.
The 9yo DYNAMITE KENTUCKY is on a tough mark but has plenty going for him otherwise and he's preferred over Ballyvaughan Bay.
(4) Stans The Man 4/1, Firmly back in form with cheekpieces fitted last 3 starts, creditable third at Fontwell (21.8f, good to firm) last time. This step back up in trip looks a good move and he's another with an each-way chance. In the frame three consecutive times since fitted with cheekpieces this summer.
2
2nd (2) (6/4 +40%) Clararose
1.5
6/4(+40%)
(2) Clararose 6/4, Improved over hurdles since tongue tied, opening her account over 21f here in May and has done little wrong since, beaten just 2 lengths when third in a Class 2 handicap at Bangor (23.2f, good) recently, despite the steady gallop counting against her. Major player. Won by 5l here (2m5f) in May and has remained in good form since; respected.
5
3rd (5) (9/2 -13%) Champetre
4.5
9/2(-13%)
(5) Champetre 9/2, Fair bumper performer for Harry Whittington who has upped his game since fitted with a visor, producing his best effort yet when second to Dynamite Kentucky in a 23f Worcester handicap (good) last month. 3 lb rise fair and will be a threat if coping with this step up in trip. One of two to pull clear of the others when going close at Worcester last month; up 3lb.
7
4th (7) (50/1 +0%) Sporty Jim
50
50/1(+0%)
(7) Sporty Jim 50/1, Low-mileage 7-y-o who has yet to fire for his current yard and it's easy enough to look elsewhere. Out of form over fences and hurdles for new stable this season.
1
5th (1) (11/2 +31%) Tzarmix
5.5
11/2(+31%)
(1) Tzarmix 11/2, Lightly-raced 6-y-o who landed a Chepstow novice for Sam Thomas back in March 2023. Posted just about his best effort for this yard when fourth of 11 at Worcester (23f, good) last month and, down another 1 lb, he's in with an each-way shout. Not beaten far when fourth at Worcester last month and ran will aid his cause.
3
6th (3) (16/1 +20%) In Rem
16
16/1(+20%)
(3) In Rem 16/1, C&D winner who returned to form (back over hurdles) when third of 8 in handicap at Exeter (23f, heavy) in March. He failed to back that up at Ffos Las a month later, though, and is probably worth taking on here following a 5-month absence. C&D winner; absent since below-par run in April but heavy rain will increase his appeal.
9
7th (9) (8/1 +0%) Faded Fantasy
8
8/1(+0%)
(9) Faded Fantasy 8/1, Southwell maiden winner in 2023 and easily his best effort since when runner-up at Worcester in June. Creditable fifth back there (23f, good) last month and, with this stiffer test in his favour, he should be on the premises. Ran okay at Worcester last month but this year's record is mixed; not the percentage call.
17:10 Warwick Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 26f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
CLARAROSE has made the frame in deeper contests than this the last twice, including when finishing third off this mark at Bangor last time. Dan Skelton's six-year-old can capitalise on the drop in grade, with her main danger possibly being Champetre, who arrives on the back of a career-best effort at Worcester last month. Keep an eye on Stans The Man too.
There could be better to come from SHIBUYA SONG now that she's faced with a stiffer test and a 7 lb rise for her Worcester success looks manageable. The consistent Clararose is next on the list but only just, as Faded Fantasy also makes some appeal having shaped as though stepping up to this trip would be in his favour last time. Champetre is another to consider.
Clararose has remained in good form since her course win in May but TZARMIX may cope better if the forecast rain arrives.
(5) Lady Buttercup 22/1, Big price and limited impact both starts in early 2024. Comfortably held in two races last term but this looks less competitive.
3
2nd (3) (4/7 -43%) Georgia's Charm
0.571429
4/7(-43%)
(3) Georgia's Charm 4/7, Order of St George filly. Half-sister to 2¼m bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Green Glory, stays 2¾m. Showed plenty when third in a big-field bumper at Cork in May for Margaret Mullins. Repeat of that will see her hard to beat for new yard. Promising third of 17 at Cork on sole start for Mags Mullins; sets a clear standard.
6
3rd (6) (18/1 -80%) Mustamento
18
18/1(-80%)
(6) Mustamento 18/1, First foal, dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler (stayed 25f) Let's Get At It and half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 3m) The Last But One. Hooded on debut. First foal of an unraced dam; wears hood on debut; yard is 0-30 in bumpers.
1
4th (1) (10/3 -21%) Honour High
3.333333
10/3(-21%)
(1) Honour High 10/3, £2,800 3-y-o, Lope De Vega mare. Dam runner-up at 1m at 2 yrs in US. Shouldn't lack for speed and she's in good hands, so a newcomer to consider. £2,800 3yo; has a Flat pedigree; in good hands; looks the pick of the newcomers.
2
5th (2) (28/1 +15%) County Royal
28
28/1(+15%)
(2) County Royal 28/1, Closely related to a winner, and half-sister to 3 winners, including fair hurdler/chaser Gentleman Duke, stayed 2½m. Dam ran once on Flat. Last of 12 starting out at Worcester in July. Finished last of 12 at Worcester in July; not screaming to be backed.
4
6th (4) (100/1 -150%) Glen Affric
100
100/1(-150%)
(4) Glen Affric 100/1, Telescope filly. Dam (c107/h65), 2½m-25f chase winner, closely related to fairly useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3m) Our Katie. £1,600 4yo; not a likely type on breeding; stable is 0-13 in bumpers.
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
GEORGIA'S CHARM made a highly encouraging first bumper start when making the frame at Cork in May and she should take a big leap forward from that effort. The daughter of Order Of St George has since switched to the Harry Fry yard and she looks well placed to make a winning start for her new connections. Honour High is related to a few winners and wasn't an expensive purchase, but she wouldn't need to be anything out of the ordinary to have a say in this contest on her debut. Any market confidence behind Mustamento should be noted too.
GEORGIA'S CHARM made a promising debut when third of 17 at Cork in May and having transferred to another good yard, she'll take some stopping. Newcomer Honour High may offer most resistance.
The clear form pick is GEORGIA'S CHARM based on her Irish effort. Honour High, who looks best of the newcomers, is feared most.

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.
