---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1st (4) (4/6 +55%) Heltenham |
4/6(+55%) | (4) Heltenham 4/6, Ex-French bumper winner who improved over fences last season, having plenty up his sleeve when completing the hat-trick at Newbury (19.8f, soft) in March. Didn't get very far making his bid for a 4-timer at Cheltenham on final outing and is an interesting runner reverted to hurdles for reappearance. Highly progressive chaser last term; leading claims if transferring ability back to h'dles. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (15) (6/1 -100%) To Chase A Dream |
6/1(-100%) | (15) To Chase A Dream 6/1, Point bumper winner who made an encouraging start to his hurdle career when second in a Carlisle novice (17.2, soft) 30 days ago, finishing well. Likely improver over this longer trip. Runner-up on hurdle debut at Carlisle and this step up in trip looks a positive move. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (28/1 -40%) Le Jeune Bresil |
28/1(-40%) | (7) Le Jeune Bresil 28/1, £36,000 6-y-o, Blue Bresil gelding. Half-brother to modest hurdler Vereina. Dam (c112/h98), 3m chase winner. Off mark in Irish points at second attempt in April but was on the retreat when exiting on C&D hurdle debut 2 weeks ago, having failed to settle. Didn't shine over C&D on recent rules debut but this Irish point winner retains potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (12) (80/1 -142%) Gustoso |
80/1(-142%) | (12) Gustoso 80/1, Well beaten sole outing in bumpers and ran to only a modest level on Aintree hurdle debut. Check betting, but well beaten on both starts; needs to be entirely different proposition. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (11/1 -57%) Lunar Chief |
11/1(-57%) | (8) Lunar Chief 11/1, Made a successful debut in 8-runner bumper at Newcastle (16.2f, heavy) in March, despite showing a tendency to flash his tail under the whip. Showed an aptitude for hurdling faced with an inadequate test at Kelso (16.2f) on return, so the step up in trip looks a good move. Bumper winner who kept on for fourth over 2m on hurdle debut; interesting now up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (9) (66/1 -136%) Magical Arthur |
66/1(-136%) | (9) Magical Arthur 66/1, Imposing sort who has shaped like a stayer both starts over hurdles. Probably one for handicaps after this run. Fair third over C&D last month but needs more today; down the field at Sedgefield since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (14) (125/1 -25%) Mademewhatiam |
125/1(-25%) | (14) Mademewhatiam 125/1, Out of a smart mare and caught the eye finishing with running left on his Rules debut at Hexham, However, was pulled up at Carlisle last month and won't be of interest this side of handicaps. Hard to fancy based on what he's shown on his two rules starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (3) (33/1 -106%) Gentle Victor |
33/1(-106%) | (3) Gentle Victor 33/1, Well in a bumper in May. Offered something to work on when fifth in 2m Ludlow novice on hurdle debut 23 days ago but possibly more one for the longer term. Kept on for 5th over 2m at Ludlow; each-way possible if improving for this step up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (11) (33/1 -18%) Nearly Wed |
33/1(-18%) | (11) Nearly Wed 33/1, €4,500 3-y-o, £23,000 5-y-o, Ocovango gelding. Dam (h64) maiden hurdler. Runner-up twice in Irish points, including latest outing (April 2022). Runner-up in two of his four points but absent since April 2022 and may be best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (2) (50/1 -52%) Fat Harry |
50/1(-52%) | (2) Fat Harry 50/1, Brother to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Silva Eclipse and showed more than first time up when sixth of 11 in a Carlisle novice but won't come into his own until tackling handicaps. Displayed some ability when sixth at Carlisle but he needs another big step forward here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (6) (25/1 -56%) Justus |
25/1(-56%) | (6) Justus 25/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 16.5f), not disgraced last 2 starts. Sold from Ian Williams for only 12,000 gns in October. Two-time Flat winner; could make a hurdler but a pretty useful standard is required here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (13) (4/1 -33%) Jar Du Desert |
4/1(-33%) | (13) Jar Du Desert 4/1, Showed fairly useful form over hurdles for Tom George prior to making a successful chasing debut in a 4-y-o event at Auteuil for N. George & A. Zetterholm in May. Has since changed yards again and looks a leading player with this step up in trip likely to suit. Won 4yo chase in France in May; could have a big say now back over hurdles on stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (1) (125/1 +17%) Exclusive Getaway |
125/1(+17%) | (1) Exclusive Getaway 125/1, Fair form when second of 4 in Warwick bumper on Rules debut but has been well held both starts over hurdles. Second of four in sole bumper but tailed off last month on first two hurdle starts. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (5) (50/1 -178%) Hemicycle |
50/1(-178%) | (5) Hemicycle 50/1, €10,000 3-y-o, £20,000 6-y-o, Cokoriko gelding. Half-brother to numerous winners, including unreliable but fairly useful hurdler/chaser Uhlan Bute. Dam 2¼m hurdle winner in France. Maiden Irish pointer, runner-up last time (May 7). Former pointer; should have a future under rules but others are more compelling today. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
15th (10) (250/1 -67%) Mount Falcon |
250/1(-67%) | (10) Mount Falcon 250/1, Last of 3 finishers on the first of 2 starts in Irish points in the spring and went with no promise on his recent Rules debut at Carlisle. Third on debut in Irish maiden point but pulled up then tailed off the next twice. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
The Dan Skelton-trained HELTENHAM was highly progressive over fences last season and can make a winning return to hurdles.

1st (4) (7/1 +50%) Findthetime |
7/1(+50%) | (4) Findthetime 7/1, Completed a hat-trick as a novice hurdler (including victory here) but didn't really kick on from his seasonal return last year and took little interest on switch to chasing last week. Hard to fancy. Course hurdles winner but he was pulled up on recent chase debut at Sedgefield. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (13/2 -8%) Inedit Star |
13/2(-8%) | (3) Inedit Star 13/2, Dual bumper winner in France showed fair form in a trio of starts over hurdles in the UK for Tom George last winter. Seemingly much improved when bolting up in the mud at Compeigne in May and he's not without interest sent chasing after another stable switch. 5yo who brings potential to his chase and stable debut and could have a major part to play. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (2) (4/5 +20%) Nells Son |
4/5(+20%) | (2) Nells Son 4/5, Useful novice hurdler (Grade 2 winner). Things didn't go entirely to plan following a solid second on return/chase debut last autumn but built on those efforts with a smooth success on reappearance over fences at Carlisle (2m) last month. More to come from him in this sphere. Won at Carlisle and is the only one of these who is proven over fences; solid candidate. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (11/4 -83%) Jungle Jack |
11/4(-83%) | (1) Jungle Jack 11/4, Point winner and useful handicap hurdler, successful twice again last season. 2m chases should be right up his street and he's a player first time up in this sphere on his return. 5-11 over hurdles and may improve for fences; could have a big say on chase debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Having won over fences at Carlisle last month, NELLS SON can put his chasing experience to good use. Jungle Jack is feared most.

1st (9) (10/3 +39%) Bashers Reflection |
10/3(+39%) | (9) Bashers Reflection 10/3, Improved performer switched to handicaps last season, winning 3 times at around 2½m. Creditable reappearance third at Wincanton (21f, soft) 3 weeks ago. Likely to be in the mix again. 3-6 in handicaps and this unexposed 6yo remains open to further improvement. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (4/1 +20%) Molly Ollys Wishes |
4/1(+20%) | (1) Molly Ollys Wishes 4/1, Won a course listed hurdle last autumn. Found the Silver Trophy at Chepstow too hot to handle on her reappearance but this useful mare is a potential class act giving weight away to lesser opposition. Has first-time cheekpieces added to her regular tongue tie. Two-time Listed winner here; however, form has gone wrong way; needs to turn things around. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (6/1 +0%) Rafferty's Return |
6/1(+0%) | (4) Rafferty's Return 6/1, Course winner last Christmas. Off 6 months, looked and ran as if in need of outing when fifth of 9 on C&D reappearance a fortnight ago. Respected with that behind him. Has a good record here and runs off last winning mark; may have needed recent reappearance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (40/1 -150%) Sam's Choice |
40/1(-150%) | (2) Sam's Choice 40/1, Fairly useful winner in Ireland for Gordon Elliott. Joined another good stable but might be best watched on this first outing for 6 months. Below best on final few starts for Gordon Elliott but monitor the betting on stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (18/1 -157%) Sporty Jim |
18/1(-157%) | (8) Sporty Jim 18/1, Improved to win a 2½m Perth maiden hurdle in April 2022 but has been absent since. Retains potential as an unexposed sort from a powerful yard but the betting is perhaps the best guide to expectations given the length of his absence. Off since April 2022 but won back then and his trainer can ready one after an absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (100/1 -100%) Foveros |
100/1(-100%) | (3) Foveros 100/1, Mixed record for Willie Mullins and ran to a barely modest level when third in a 2m Huntingdon claimer on stable debut 13 days ago. Can only watch after that. Ex-Willie Mullins; well beaten in a Huntingdon claimer on his recent stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (6/1 -20%) Copper Beach |
6/1(-20%) | (10) Copper Beach 6/1, Much improved as he shed his maiden tag in runaway style upped to 2½m at Uttoxeter in June. Has largely remained in form since, finishing second of 10 at Sedgefield last time. Runner-up at Sedgefield last month and might not be far away. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (40/1 -150%) Singapore Trip |
40/1(-150%) | (11) Singapore Trip 40/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser at his best in France. Brian Hughes does the steering on this stable debut so it'll be interesting to see what the betting makes of him. Well treated on peak French form but not at the top of his game this season; stable debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (5) (7/2 +13%) Serious Operator |
7/2(+13%) | (5) Serious Operator 7/2, Had a 3-5 record over hurdles for this stable last season and shaped well when seventh of 16 on his 2½m Cheltenham reappearance 22 days ago. Can build on that now. Good novice campaign last season and he could build on his recent reappearance run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (7/1 -40%) Haafapiece |
7/1(-40%) | (6) Haafapiece 7/1, Good record here, including 2 handicap wins over this trip last season. Not at his best when well-held fifth on last month's Market Rasen reappearance but he's feasibly treated if a return to this venue sparks a revival. Two-time C&D winner who was runner-up over C&D on reappearance; key player. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Two-time course winner RAFFERTY'S RETURN (nap) runs off his last winning mark and earns the vote ahead of Bashers Reflection.

1st (5) (9/2 +10%) Grandeur D'Ame |
9/2(+10%) | (5) Grandeur D'Ame 9/2, Winning hurdler who dug deep to open his account in this sphere at Huntington in January and followed up from the front at Stratford (17f, soft) in March. Bit disappointing at Aintree when last seen but unexposed over this sort of trip and not dismissed on return. Soundly beaten on final two outings in March/May but this 7yo retains potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (13/2 -30%) Cornerstone Lad |
13/2(-30%) | (3) Cornerstone Lad 13/2, Smart hurdler who scored over fences over bare 2m here in January 2022 off 13 lb higher mark. Tempting mark on return with Brian Hughes up and can go well if this doesn't become too much of a test. On a reduced mark and this two-time course winner could be firmly involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (6/1 -33%) Ubetya |
6/1(-33%) | (4) Ubetya 6/1, Off the mark for this yard in 21f Cartmel handicap chase in May and respectable run in stronger race there next time. Not without a chance on reappearance. Has a good record when fresh and he could play a leading role on this return to action. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (7) (3/1 +14%) Lets Go To Vegas |
3/1(+14%) | (7) Lets Go To Vegas 3/1, Runner-up completed start in Irish points and did well over hurdles last term, making it 2-3 when edging ahead in the dying strides in 3m Ludlow handicap. Struggled in valuable Newbury race final start but she's interesting starting out over fences now. 2-4 over h'dles; this unexposed point runner-up is an interesting contender on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (3/1 +33%) Good Work |
3/1(+33%) | (6) Good Work 3/1, Runner-up 5 times over fences last season (went close over 3m here) and not disgraced in a big field at Cheltenham on his return, although he typically jumped none too fluently. Different headgear tried. 0-16 but runner-up on nine occasions and might not be far away in first-time blinkers. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (5/1 +9%) Erne River |
5/1(+9%) | (1) Erne River 5/1, Useful over hurdles and fences (course winner). Shaped as if needing the run reverted to chasing after 6 months off in the Old Roan 3 weeks ago and could fare a lot better back here down 4 lb. Something to prove but may have needed recent reappearance & has dropped to enticing mark. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
Two-time course winner Cornerstone Lad has dropped to a dangerous mark but preference is for UBETYA, who tends to go well fresh.

1st (2) (2/5 +40%) Favour And Fortune |
2/5(+40%) | (2) Favour And Fortune 2/5, Easy winner of Southwell and Warwick bumpers last term. No impact in the Champion Bumper final start but easily made a successful debut over hurdles at Hereford (16.2f, good) last month. Sixth that day won since and with plenty more to offer, he looks the one to beat. Two-time hurdle winner who scored easily on his hurdle debut; leading claims under penalty. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (4) (9/1 +18%) Bertie's Ballet |
9/1(+18%) | (4) Bertie's Ballet 9/1, Useful dual bumper winner last season who should be capable of making his presence felt sent hurdling after 7 months off. Certainly worth a second look in the market. Two-time bumper winner; makes hurdle debut in warm race but he has potential. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (25/1 -317%) Delgany Bobby Blue |
25/1(-317%) | (5) Delgany Bobby Blue 25/1, Shaped with promise under a considerate ride when runner-up in a Chepstow bumper in February. Never involved next time but offered plenty to work on after 7 months off/a wind operation when runner-up on hurdles bow at Uttoxeter (15.8f, good to soft) just under 6 weeks ago. Should improve. Runner-up on hurdle debut; improvement needed but he's in good hands to progress. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (9/1 -100%) Tommy Time |
9/1(-100%) | (3) Tommy Time 9/1, Irish bumper winner who matched that form at the second time of asking for new yard when runner-up under a penalty at Sedgefield last month. Didn't need to run to the same level to make a successful debut over hurdles at the same track (16.8f, soft) 19 days later and he's open to progress. Won on hurdle debut; improvement needed but this likeable prospect is not ruled out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (18/1 +10%) Finn Lough |
18/1(+10%) | (6) Finn Lough 18/1, €12,500 3-y-o, £45,000 4-y-o, Milan gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to very smart hurdler (winner up to 3m) Splendid Thyne and useful hurdler (stayed 25f) His Nibs. Won sole start in Irish points (Mar 12). Point winner who could go well on rules debut, especially if strong in the betting. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (66/1 +34%) Hellenista |
66/1(+34%) | (7) Hellenista 66/1, Modest handicapper on Flat (stays 17f), well held at Musselburgh last month. Gets weight being the sole mare in the line-up but looks up against making her hurdling debut. On a losing run on the Flat and is probably best watched on hurdle debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (8/1 -14%) Coniston George |
8/1(-14%) | (1) Coniston George 8/1, Set some sound foundations in a trio of bumpers last season and did well in making a successful debut over hurdles after 7 months off at Kelso (16.2f, heavy) 3 weeks ago, conceding experience and track position to a well-backed pointer. Open to progress. Narrow win on hurdle debut; others have more substance to form but open to improvement. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
Easy Hereford winner FAVOUR AND FORTUNE is a useful prospect and he can make it 2-2 over hurdles. Bertie's Ballet may go well.

1st (1) (15/8 -50%) Richmond Lake |
15/8(-50%) | (1) Richmond Lake 15/8, Didn't look back following low-key start over fences last season, winning 3 of his 4 subsequent starts in that sphere, including a handicap at Ayr (20.5f, good) when last seen in April. 3 lb lower back hurdling and a bold show likely with trip/ground no problem. Well treated on last season's chase form and he's respected on his reappearance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (3) (11/4 -46%) Punta Del Este |
11/4(-46%) | (3) Punta Del Este 11/4, Winner in France and promising start for this yard when third in the Victor Ludorum at Haydock (15.6f, good to soft) in February. Shaped up quite well in Fred Winter next time and probably best to excuse his latest effort at Ascot, so he remains of interest. French winner; in top hands and this 4yo could post a big performance back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (4) (4/1 +33%) Start In Front |
4/1(+33%) | (4) Start In Front 4/1, All-the-way winner of a C&D juvenile hurdle on British debut last December but it wouldn't be harsh to say that he subsequently failed to build on that, for all that he was a creditable second in a Sedgefield handicap in February. Improvement needed. Down the field when last seen but this course winner is not ruled out back from a break. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (2) (3/1 +33%) It's Good To Laugh |
3/1(+33%) | (2) It's Good To Laugh 3/1, Made up into a pretty useful novice a couple of seasons back, despite some seriously errant jumping. Issues in that department came home to roost when pulled up on sole hurdles start last term and while much of his form on the Flat since has been solid, he clearly comes with risks attached. Pulled up in March on latest hurdle outing but some good Flat form since; capable. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
The lightly raced 4yo PUNTA DEL ESTE could be set for a productive campaign for Dan Skelton and he is taken to make a winning return.

1st (2) (9/1 -64%) East Street |
9/1(-64%) | (2) East Street 9/1, Fairly useful winner over hurdles and ran to a similar level switched to chasing last season, scoring over C&D in March. Lacklustre return at Carlisle a month ago but might come on for it. Three of his runs last season put him in the mix; pulled up on reappearance one month ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (20/1 -82%) Best Trition |
20/1(-82%) | (5) Best Trition 20/1, Left his chase debut/reappearance effort well behind when leading near the finish at Ffos Las (heavy) in January. However, endured a hard race and he took little interest subsequently. 7-month break should have helped. Did little after January win; perhaps seven months off can help him to regain the spark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (15/2 -88%) Southern Sam |
15/2(-88%) | (1) Southern Sam 15/2, Very lightly raced for his age and, while he was pulled up when last seen, he goes well fresh and returns from 7 months off with his stable going well. One to consider. Pulled up in April when trying 3m4f on latest start; no shock if he's back to form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (7/2 +30%) Ladronne |
7/2(+30%) | (3) Ladronne 7/2, Well treated and looked as good as ever when fourth at this course a fortnight ago. Step back up in trip looks in his favour, so he's likely to make an impact. Respectable show two weeks ago after his break; considered back on his last winning mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (7/2 -17%) Horacio Apple's |
7/2(-17%) | (6) Horacio Apple's 7/2, Dual hurdles winner who shaped as if in need of the experience when fifth in a handicap at Kelso on chasing debut. Stable is going well and he should know more now, so worth chancing. Two hurdle wins early this year; off 220 days before well-beaten favourite on chase debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (50/1 -178%) Sigurd |
50/1(-178%) | (7) Sigurd 50/1, Three-time C&D winner who was pulled up when last seen at Market Rasen 11 months ago. Always deserves respect at this track but hard to know if he'll be fully tuned up. 352-day absence looks a big negative on previous campaigns; usual tongue-tie is removed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (8) (11/1 +31%) Le Grand Vert |
11/1(+31%) | (8) Le Grand Vert 11/1, Hurdles winner in France in summer 2021. No impact over hurdles for this yard but more encouragement in two chasing outings in the spring. Might need this return from 7 months off. 2nd at 2m7f (heavy) in March on his first British chase start; not so good 13 days later. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|U| (4) (9/4 +32%) Readysteadybeau |
9/4(+32%) | (4) Readysteadybeau 9/4, Overcame mistakes to get off at the fourth attempt over fences at Ayr (21.5f) in February and bounced back from a fall to run out a dominant winner at Perth in April. Respectable return at Carlisle last month and should be spot on now. Won twice in novice campaign; favourite when well held on reappearance last month. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (9) (22/1 +0%) Ballynagran |
22/1(+0%) | (9) Ballynagran 22/1, Resumed winning ways at Hexham in May but highlighted his unreliability both starts since, and others make more appeal. 3m chase wins in January (C&D, soft) and May under front-running rides but hard to predict. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
Ladronne is the only one with a respectable recent run. SOUTHERN SAM has shown plenty of times that he can go well after a break.

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.
