1st (3) My Brother Mike (9/4 +50%)
My Brother Mike

2.25
9/4(+50%)
(3) My Brother Mike 9/4, Veteran C&D winner who resumed winning ways here (8.6f) in November. Efforts mixed subsequently but back on track returned to patient tactics when fifth of 9 in handicap here (8.6f) 15 days ago. Worth considering operating from last winning mark.
Course win in November; close up in fifth here latest and that form has been well franked.
2
2nd (2) Whiteley Way (16/1 -60%)
Whiteley Way

16
16/1(-60%)
(2) Whiteley Way 16/1, Maiden who ran creditably starting out for new yard/after 4 months off when third in 9-runner handicap here (8.6f) in January. Inauspicious start over hurdles when pulled up at Hereford (16.2f) since but type to bounce back returned to the level. Tongue strap on 1st time.
Hurdle run latest is easy to excuse and earlier placed effort here gives her a squeak.
6
3rd (6) Port Noir (15/2 +0%)
Port Noir

7.5
15/2(+0%)
(6) Port Noir 15/2, 6-time course winner. Three wins from 29 runs last year. 10/1, respectable fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (8.6f) 36 days ago. Should give another good account on back of wind surgery.
C&D winner last October; had a wind op since last seen five weeks ago; contender.
4
4th (4) Khangai (7/2 +22%)
Khangai

3.5
7/2(+22%)
(4) Khangai 7/2, Course winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. 5/1, run best excused when fifth of 7 in handicap back at that venue (11.1f) 10 days ago, denied a run and shuffled back over 2f out. Better showing anticipated with blinkers back on.
Down in trip and ran poorly latest but the return of H Crouch could be significant.
5
5th (5) Simply Red (40/1 -60%)
Simply Red

40
40/1(-60%)
(5) Simply Red 40/1, Fair winning handicap hurdler who failed to improve for switch to handicaps in this sphere when eighth of 10 in a C&D contest 17 days ago. Needs to pull out more now equipped with a first-time hood.
No great improvement for the switch to handicaps here 17 days ago; others stronger.
1
6th (1) Al Baahy (9/2 +18%)
Al Baahy

4.5
9/2(+18%)
(1) Al Baahy 9/2, Twenty runs since last sole previous victory in 2023 but largely holding form well in recent months, good third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (7.1f, 4/1) 25 days ago, running on. Significantly back up in trip and he's worth a second look.
Poor strike-rate but he's been threatening in recent months; stamina not assured.
9
7th (9) Tancredi (40/1 -21%)
Tancredi

40
40/1(-21%)
(9) Tancredi 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 80/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, sixth of 7 in handicap at this course (12.2f) 29 days ago. Down in trip. Something to find on form.
Yet to fire for current stable and others bring more persuasive claims.
7
8th (7) Star Of Jupiter (8/1 -167%)
Star Of Jupiter

8
8/1(-167%)
(7) Star Of Jupiter 8/1, Lightly-raced 4-y-o who sprung a surprise with blinkers reached for when readily landing 9-runner minor event over C&D 2 weeks ago. Appeared no element of fluke about that and he's respected making handicap debut.
Belied 50-1 odds with a ready C&D win two weeks ago; unexposed and should do better.
8
9th (8) Mykonos St John (10/1 +29%)
Mykonos St John

10
10/1(+29%)
(8) Mykonos St John 10/1, Course winner. Three wins from 20 runs last year. 16/1, good fifth of 9 in handicap at this C&D 8 days ago, plenty to do 2f out and never able to land a blow. Others appeal more for win purposes judged on recent exploits.
Three AW wins in 2025; handy mark again but needs to leave recent efforts behind him.

16:55 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Now that the penny has dropped for STAR OF JUPITER after a comfortable success in a classified contest over C&D recently, the four-year-old is likely to have plenty more improvement forthcoming and a mark of 53 could underestimate him on handicap debut. Not beaten far over 7f at Newcastle last time out, Al Baahy is of interest, while Khangai is another to note.

MY BROTHER MIKE bounced back to form reverting back to patient tactics when finishing a close-up fifth over shorter here 2 weeks ago and, back on his last winning mark, he could be worth chancing to build on that run back up in trip. Al Baahy, Star of Jupiter and Khangai are others to consider.

The form of MY BROTHER MIKE's latest fifth has been well advertised and he can get the better of the unexposed Star Of Jupiter.

City Escape

4
4/1(+27%)
(7) City Escape 4/1, 3-time C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2023. 9/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 8 days ago. Place claims.

2nd (8) Come On John (3/1 -9%)
Come On John

3
3/1(-9%)
(8) Come On John 3/1, C&D winner. Blinkered for 1st time, pulled hard when sixth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 7/4) 13 days ago. Back down in trip. Visor back on. Not taken lightly.
Expensive to follow for current stable, apart from Southwell win in October.
5
3rd (5) Back From Dubai (9/1 +10%)
Back From Dubai

9
9/1(+10%)
(5) Back From Dubai 9/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 14/1, last of 9 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 13 days ago. Back down in trip. Tongue strap back on.
Recent form includes a C&D classified win; hasn't won a handicap since June 2023.

(1) Harlington 7/4, C&D winner. Latest win here in November. 5/1, good third of 7 in handicap at this course (12.2f) 22 days ago. Back down in trip. Player.
Consistent for current stable; ran creditably off this mark here the last twice; solid.

Opticality

7.5
15/2(+25%)
(6) Opticality 15/2, Course winner. 7/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap at Newcastle (12.4f) 25 days ago. Down in trip. In the mix.
Two AW wins for previous yard; placed in three of her four starts for new stable.
2
6th (2) Fazen (16/1 -33%)
Fazen

16
16/1(-33%)
(2) Fazen 16/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 80/1, sixth of 8 in maiden at this C&D 36 days ago. Makes handicap debut. More needed.
Not entirely solid on form but may be capable of progress now handicapping; interesting.
4
7th (4) Olympic Quest (25/1 -257%)
Olympic Quest

25
25/1(-257%)
(4) Olympic Quest 25/1, Course winner. 5/1, good second of 11 in handicap at this C&D, suited by emphasis on speed. Off 127 days. Can go well.
Close second over C&D when last seen four months ago; enters calculations on reappearance.

Pomeriggio

Ex-Irish filly who has lost her form since last June; debut for new yard.

17:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Not beaten far over further here the last twice when travelling well towards the front, HARLINGTON is likely to be suited by a drop in trip having scored over C&D last September. The son of Hunter's Light may be able to dictate and gets the nod ahead of unexposed handicap debutant Fazen, and Olympic Quest, who returns to action after going close over track and trip in October.

HARLINGTON is threatening to come good so gets the vote with his latest third here looking solid form. Come On John is next best back down in trip ahead of Opticality.

Consistent HARLINGTON (nap) holds particularly solid claims and is first choice ahead of Olympic Quest.

Arts Of War

1.75
7/4(+22%)
(1) Arts Of War 7/4, Thrice-raced maiden. 15/8, sixth of 13 in novice at Kempton (8f). Off 13 months. Hood back on. Bred to be useful so may do better now handicapping.
May blossom now handicapping with hood reapplied; interesting contender on reappearance.
5
2nd (5) Runaround Sioux (7/4 +47%)
Runaround Sioux

1.75
7/4(+47%)
(5) Runaround Sioux 7/4, 2/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable third of 8 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 19 days ago. Looks competitive on form but this trip is a concern.
Campaigned mostly over 6f; pedigree suggests she's a doubtful stayer at this new trip.
8
3rd (8) Beautiful Dawn (25/1 -56%)
Beautiful Dawn

25
25/1(-56%)
(8) Beautiful Dawn 25/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Second of 9 in handicap (40/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 18 days ago. 2 lb out of handicap.
Ran encouragingly at Southwell last time; now 2lb out of the weights in a better grade.

Next Trick

5
5/1(+9%)
(3) Next Trick 5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, last of 7 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 4/1) 34 days ago. Back up in trip. Makes tapeta debut.
Ex-Irish maiden; ran encouragingly on stable debut; perhaps best to forgive latest effort.
4
5th (4) Granary Queen (13/2 +7%)
Granary Queen

6.5
13/2(+7%)
(4) Granary Queen 13/2, 12/1, bit below form after 8 months off when sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 14 days ago. Up in trip. Better expected now.
Below par during a light 2024 campaign and failed to revive on reappearance.
6
6th (6) Storm Valley (18/1 -125%)
Storm Valley

18
18/1(-125%)
(6) Storm Valley 18/1, Two wins from 4 runs last year. 8/1, off 9 months, never involved when sixth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (11f) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Has good chance on form.
Seems likely to find this trip inadequate; recorded her wins over 1m2f/1m3f.
7
7th (7) Lockdown Lass (125/1 -400%)

125
125/1(-400%)

Poor effort last time took her AW record to 0-14.

18:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 9f Race Class Flow

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

ARTS OF WAR has yet to live up to her costly price tag, but Roger Varian's charge could be well treated off a mark of 70 on her handicap bow and she may be able to see off the more experienced Runaround Sioux going up in trip a furlong. Placed on two starts here previously, Storm Valley has done very well since those efforts and must be high on the shortlist too.

STORM VALLEY did well for this yard last year so remains of interest having likely needed her comeback 3 weeks ago. It looks significant that connections are persevering with the well-bred Arts of War back from an absence so she may emerge as the biggest threat on handicap bow. Granary Queen is another who is expected to benefit for her recent return.

Interesting handicap debutante ARTS OF WAR is preferred even though she's been absent for over a year. Next Trick is second pick.

1st (2) Star Zia (10/3 +5%)
Star Zia

3.333333
10/3(+5%)
(2) Star Zia 10/3, Thrice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, third of 7 in maiden (9/2) at Chelmsford City (6f) 12 days ago. Merits consideration.
Leading form claims but she's a free-going filly for whom the widest stall won't be a help.

2nd (1) Havana Joy (10/3 -33%)
Havana Joy

3.333333
10/3(-33%)
(1) Havana Joy 10/3, €20,000 foal, £50,000 yearling, Havana Grey filly. Half-sister to winner up to 7f Skittlebombz and 1½m-1¾m winner Maritime Lady. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 5.7f Willytheconqueror. 25/1, some promise when third of 6 in novice at Kempton (6f) 20 days ago. Likely to improve.
Couldn't quicken when the pace picked up at Kempton on debut but it was still a fair start.

3rd (3) Cemlyn (2/1 +43%)
Cemlyn

2
2/1(+43%)
(3) Cemlyn 2/1, Fair maiden. Good second of 10 in handicap (10/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 10 days ago, no match for winner. Shortlist material.
Good 2nd to a handicap blot at Southwell ten days ago (6f); solid form contender.

Miss Guinness

50
50/1(-127%)
(5) Miss Guinness 50/1, Half-sister to useful 2-y-o 5f winner Dickiedooda and 1½m winner Sioux Princess: dam, 2-y-o 8.5f winner, half-sister to winner up to 1¼m (stayed 13f) Power Elite and 5f/6f winner La Sylvia (both useful). Tenth of 11 in novice at Southwell (7.1f, 16/1) on debut 11 days ago.
No headway from the back on recent Southwell debut (7f); not easily recommended.
9
5th (9) Juno Star (16/1 +60%)
Juno Star

16
16/1(+60%)
(9) Juno Star 16/1, Once-raced maiden. 100/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Newmarket (5f, good to firm) on debut. Off 10 months. Up in trip.
100-1 and never in contention at Newmarket last April; not easily recommended.
8
6th (8) Yesterday's Gone (22/1 +56%)
Yesterday's Gone

22
22/1(+56%)
(8) Yesterday's Gone 22/1, Twice-raced maiden. Eighth of 9 in novice at Chelmsford City (6f, 66/1). Off 178 days.
Down the field in two fillies' novices last summer; future lies in handicaps over further.

7th (4) Mayday Mayday (11/4 +8%)
Mayday Mayday

2.75
11/4(+8%)
(4) Mayday Mayday 11/4, £22,000 2-y-o, Soldier's Call filly. Half-sister to 7f winner Bride Tree and 1m/8.6f winner Jersey Rocs. 5/2, not seen to best effect when sixth of 10 in maiden at this C&D on debut 24 days ago, running green before hampered. Will improve.
Sent off fav over C&D on debut but too green to do herself justice; can do much better.
6
8th (6) Rhodes Royce (125/1 -150%)
Rhodes Royce

125/1(-150%)
(6) Rhodes Royce 125/1, Twice-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in maiden at Lingfield (7f, AW, 22/1) 18 days ago.
Modest form in two 7f runs at Lingfield this year; minor handicaps beckon.
7

66-1 and always behind when tenth of 11 at Newcastle ten days ago (6f); hard to fancy.

18:30 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 4) 6f Race Class Flow

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

HAVANA JOY did herself no favours by running keenly on her racecourse debut at Kempton 20 days ago and did well to finish third under the circumstances. Sure to be wiser and open to any amount of improvement, the daughter of Havana Grey is an attractive proposition. Cemlyn and Star Zia are the clear pick of the remainder, with the latter feared most as she sets the standard on official ratings.

HAVANA JOY offered something to work on when third at Kempton 3 weeks ago and shades the vote over Mayday Mayday, who was too green to do herself justice over C&D early this month. Cemlyn and Star Zia should also be bang there.

Cemlyn should go well but MAYDAY MAYDAY can leave her debut effort behind her and she is preferred.

Radiant Angel

11
11/1(-120%)
(8) Radiant Angel 11/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 13/2) 6 days ago, not seen to best effect from off the pace but finishing off his race well. Remains a maiden following 11 attempts but down to a workable mark and he's worth a second look.
11-race maiden; some solid efforts this year but needs more if he's to break his duck.

2nd (6) Autumn Angel (11/4 +58%)
Autumn Angel

2.75
11/4(+58%)
(6) Autumn Angel 11/4, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. Respectable fourth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 10/1) 4 days ago. Definite each-way claims again returned to sprinting.
Two C&D wins this winter; not at best over 7f last week; can miss the break; yard runs two.
4
3rd (4) Papa Don't Preach (13/2 +19%)
Papa Don't Preach

6.5
13/2(+19%)
(4) Papa Don't Preach 13/2, Course winner. 7/1, respectable sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (5.1f) 14 days ago. Issues at the start remain a concern but he lines up here operating 2 lb below last winning mark and switch to a visor could help. Not discounted.
Mixed record since a 5f win at Chelmsford last October; change of headgear; 6f the query.
2
4th (2) Shamardia (15/2 +6%)
Shamardia

7.5
15/2(+6%)
(2) Shamardia 15/2, Latest win over C&D in September. Eighth of 9 in handicap (4/1) at Southwell (6.1f) 32 days ago, weakening over 1f out having been caught a touch wide. Cheekpieces on 1st time and better showing distinctly possible.
C&D win off higher mark last September; mixed since but addition of headgear could help.
7
5th (7) Under Curfew (8/1 -14%)
Under Curfew

8
8/1(-14%)
(7) Under Curfew 8/1, Improved on recent efforts to win 9-runner handicap (6/1) at this C&D 8 days ago, a well-run race back at this trip suiting him well. Should be up to making his presence felt again under a penalty.
Squeezed up the far rail to win over C&D eight days ago; more required to defy penalty.
3
6th (3) Sisters In The Sky (15/2 -88%)
Sisters In The Sky

7.5
15/2(-88%)
(3) Sisters In The Sky 15/2, Four wins from 26 runs last year. 9/1, won 8-runner handicap at this C&D 22 days ago, staying on to lead dying strides. Has good chance with Rossa Ryan again in the plate.
Last-gasp C&D win three weeks ago; 1lb rise negligible; Rossa Ryan booked again.

Timebar

0-9 and hasn't built on an encouraging stable debut in October; down in weights/trip.
11
8th (11) Red Walls (33/1 -175%)
Red Walls

33
33/1(-175%)
(11) Red Walls 33/1, 5-time course winner. Three wins from 21 runs last year. Last of 9 in handicap at this C&D (6/1) 14 days ago, weakening over 1f out. No surprise to see prominent tactics re-employed here but his draw could have been kinder.
Two good C&D runs last month but his form has dipped the last twice; drawn wide.
9
9th (9) Porfin (11/1 +8%)
Porfin

11
11/1(+8%)
(9) Porfin 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Lingfield in January. Visored for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap at this C&D (11/2) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.
Not at best in a C&D handicap three weeks ago; earlier classified form gives him a shout.
5
10th (5) Eldeyaar (14/1 -17%)
Eldeyaar

14
14/1(-17%)
(5) Eldeyaar 14/1, 3-time C&D winner. Fifth of 9 in handicap (15/2) at this C&D 8 days ago, weakening having gone off pretty hard. Others more persuasive.
Three-time C&D winner; didn't run badly here last week; bold bid expected off handy mark.

11th (1) Thismydream (7/1 +42%)
Thismydream

7
7/1(+42%)
(1) Thismydream 7/1, Course winner. 18/1, wasted no time getting back to form with a visor refitted when third of 9 in handicap at this C&D 22 days ago. Not discounted from this sort of mark.
Modest strike-rate and better known for 5f exploits; placed over C&D last time though.

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

SISTERS IN THE SKY boasts the most convincing recent profile and, still well treated on his past exploits, has a decent chance of extending his run of good form by posting back-to-back C&D wins within the calendar month. Under Curfew is feared most under a 4lb penalty for his own track and trip success from last week. Fellow course winners Shamardia, who wears first-time cheekpieces, and Thismydream can also figure off competitive ratings.

The likelihood of a well-run race will play firmly into the hands of recent C&D winner SISTERS IN THE SKY, so he's selected to come out on top again operating from a 1 lb higher mark. Similar comments apply to fellow last-time-out scorer Under Curfew and he's respected. Radiant Angel is another worth a second look having eased in the weights of late.

Sisters In The Sky is high on the list but cheekpieces could spark a revival from the well-treated SHAMARDIA.

(10) Aspire To Glory 12/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2024. 17/2, fourth of 7 in minor event at this C&D 17 days ago. Tongue strap back on.
Running okay this year but in 0-50 classified events; more required for the win.

Light Up Our Stars

12
12/1(+14%)
(3) Light Up Our Stars 12/1, C&D winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2024. Eighth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f, 10/1) 19 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Others more persuasive.
Lurks on a handy mark and this is slightly less demanding than of late; not ruled out.

20/1(-11%)
(8) Inexplicable 20/1, 7-time C&D winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2024. Bit below form seventh of 12 in minor event (25/1) at Southwell (8.1f) 4 days ago. Better showing not ruled out returned to this venue but others preferred for win purposes nevertheless.
These conditions bring out the best in him; more needed back in a h'cap but not ruled out.

(7) Pessoa 13/2, 4-time course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2024. Creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (9.5f, 13/2) 8 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Each-way possibilities again.
Beaten off this mark on last five runs; in form though and cheekpieces could spark extra.

Charlatan

13/8(+35%)
(4) Charlatan 13/8, C&D winner. Latest win at Southwell in January. 7/2, good second of 8 in handicap at this C&D 7 days ago, just failed having conceded first run. Pulled nicely clear of the remainder then and of interest here from unchanged mark.
Near miss over C&D last week; runs off the same mark and he's a leading contender.

(11) Mr Slicker 16/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2023. 14/1, eighth of 12 in minor event at Southwell (8.1f) 4 days ago, never involved. Needs to bounce back.
Run some fair races at Southwell this winter; not so good last week though and opposable.

(2) Plumette 18/1, 6-time course winner. Latest win here in January. 11/1, seventh of 8 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 17 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip.
Easy win over 7f last month but that was a weak race; well held latest; others appeal more.

Alyara

22
22/1(-10%)
(9) Alyara 22/1, 17/2, below form sixth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (7.1f) 11 days ago, rushed up to dispute lead before weakening over 2f out. Consistent in 3 previous starts for present stable and another fancied to bounce back with usual cheekpieces refitted.
Winning stable debut at Southwell in December; below par 11 days ago; others stronger.

9th (6) Carey Street (8/1 +33%)
Carey Street

8/1(+33%)
(6) Carey Street 8/1, 4-time course winner. 5/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 18 days ago, weakening when headed over 1f out. Mark has eased a little more and he's certainly not out of things for in-form yard.
Conditions to suit and on a handy mark; minor money perhaps his best hope.

Just Typical

4/1(+0%)
(1) Just Typical 4/1, 4-y-o who posted a career-best display to make it 2 wins from last 3 starts in 11-runner handicap at Newcastle (1m) 5 days ago. Possibilities again turned out quickly under a penalty.
Won two of his last three; penalty for last week's win demands another career best.

19:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 8.5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

It is hard to ignore JUST TYPICAL, who has won two of his last three starts and has thrived on being kept busy since the turn of the year. Ian Williams' four-year-old escapes a penalty for last week's mile success in a restricted riders' race at Newcastle and must have every chance of following up with Ryan Kavanagh retaining the ride. Pessoa is hard to get right, yet is notable with first-time cheekpieces tried. Inexplicable and Plumette are other course winners who at least merit betting checks.

CHARLATAN again ran well and possibly would have come out the right side of a tight finish with a clearer run through when second over C&D last week. Clear of the remainder then, he holds sound claims operating from the same mark. Just Typical arrives on the back of a career-best success at Newcastle and he's feared, with Pessoa and Carey Street others worthy of a second look.

Charlatan is a solid contender but the booking of Rossa Ryan suggests this is D-Day for NIGHT ARC and a revival seems likely.

20:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 5) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Sense Of Worth appreciated a return to 1m4f when scoring over C&D seven days ago and another bold bid looks likely. However, a 4lb penalty could be enough to thwart the veteran in his follow-up bid and preference is for the rejuvenated INIT TOGETHER. The seven-year-old has proved triumphant on four of his five outings since racing under the Tony Carroll banner in January and there still looks to be more to come. Upepo is also worth a second look.

A few with chances but EARLY MORNING DEW wasn't seen to ideal effect when fifth at Lingfield last time out and can capitalise on a handy-looking mark. Aiming High heads the list of dangers now his stamina is unlocked more, with in-form duo Upepo and Sense of Worth also firmly in the picture.

Back up in distance, AIMING HIGH could well take advantage of a handy mark. Star Time is second choice.

20:30 Wolverhampton Stakes (Class 6) 5f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Having returned to form when runner-up in a similar contest at Southwell 13 days ago, a breakthrough victory could be on the horizon for MAVERIC'S MAGIC. The introduction of a tongue-tie and hood could eke out some improvement in the Bungle Inthejungle gelding and he won't find many weaker contests. The biggest threat may emerge from Second Collection, who holds leading claims if shaking off a last-placed finish over C&D a fortnight ago, ahead of Battle Point.

SECOND COLLECTION rates the pick of these weights and is best forgiven his latest C&D run when caught wide so gets the vote. Maveric's Magic is next on the list on the back of a good Southwell second. C&D scorer My Turn Now can also have a say if back on her A-game.

Admirable Lad is likely to fare better today but SECOND COLLECTION is taken to come out on top dropped into 0-50 company.

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.
