11/1(-38%)
(3) Blazing Court 11/1, Produced his best effort when ½-length second of 11 to Sir Canford in novice handicap at Uttoxeter last summer. Ran no sort with race when pulled up on his return in April but he's a chaser on looks so fences could be the making of him.

Camino Rocio

7/1(-40%)

Beannaigh Do

16
16/1(+36%)
(10) Beannaigh Do 16/1, Offered more when second on Ffos Las chase debut last spring but has failed to build on that, adding to a patchy record when pulled up at Ludlow in February and didn't show much more at Hereford 3 weeks ago. Back up in trip.
Fourth at Hereford last month and now 0-16 under all codes..

7th (4) What A Steal (5/1 -67%)
What A Steal

5
5/1(-67%)
(4) What A Steal 5/1, Record rather mixed over hurdles but he left his chase debut run well behind when landing 14-runner C&D handicap 12 days ago, seeing off Camino Rocio by 4 lengths. Back up 7 lb but he has to be of interest.
20-1 winner on 2nd chase attempt (C&D); back up 7lb but should go on from that.

Bari Breeze

17:50 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

Dropping in trip brought about marked improvement from WHAT A STEAL on his second start over fences when getting off the mark here at the start of the month. The handicapper gave him a 7lb rise for that success and the son of Flemensfirth may well have more to offer. Camino Rocio also took a step in the right direction when runner-up to the selection on his first attempt over the larger obstacles and he is respected, along with Calvic, who sports cheekpieces for the first time.

It could be worth taking a chance on BLAZING COURT, who has yet to win a race but is certainly built for chasing and tackles fences for the first time here. What A Steal and Camino Rocio occupied the first two positions in a C&D handicap recently and are just a couple of potential threats.

This looks between WHAT A STEAL and Camino Rocio who fought out the finish here recently and the former can confirm the placings

Matterhorn

4
4/1(-129%)
(2) Matterhorn 4/1, Defied a penalty in fine style following his third breathing operation and a 7-month break at Taunton (16.5f, good to soft) in November and made a successful chasing debut at Ludlow (16f, good to firm) last month, outclassing his sole inferior rival. Can win more races over fences.
Made winning start over fences in a match at Ludlow last month; looks sure to go well.

Boombawn

10
10/1(-300%)
(1) Boombawn 10/1, Useful hurdler who made the perfect start over fences when scoring with plenty left in the tank at Warwick last month. Couldn't immediately add to his chasing debut success but still shaped perfectly well when third in a handicap at Cartmel (17.3f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Plenty to like.
Made winning debut over fences at Warwick last month; good third at Cartmel last time..

Parc D'amour

40
40/1(-1900%)
(3) Parc D'amour 40/1, Bumper winner who gained a deserved success over hurdles in 12-runner Huntingdon handicap in November. Also made a cosy winning start over fences despite looking in need of the experience in the jumping department at Southwell (15.8f, heavy) recently and is capable of better again.
Made winning debut over fences at Southwell last month; has been raised 6lb..

Somespring Special

400
400/1(-5614%)
(4) Somespring Special 400/1, Dual winning hurdler. Pulled up on testing winter ground in her first 2 chases but a different proposition back on a sounder surface this spring, winning handicaps at Plumpton and Cheltenham in quick succession in April. Better than result at Bangor 4 weeks ago, so she can bounce back.
Won twice over fences in April, but below that level at Bangor last month..

18:20 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

MATTERHORN had become disappointing over hurdles before returning to form on his fencing debut at Ludlow when scoring in a match contest. He jumped fine on the whole after an early error and the handicapper left his mark unchanged. Parc d'Amour went up 6lb for his victory at Southwell last month and is entitled to step forward, while Boombawn's third at Cartmel was a solid effort against more experienced chasers.

A case can be made for all 4 runners, but preference is for BOOMBAWN, who made a winning start over fences at Warwick then shaped perfectly well pitched into a strongly-run race against much more established chasers when third at Cartmel last month. Both Matterhorn and Parc d'Amour made a winning chasing debut last month, and they can chase home Dan Skelton's charge in that order.

An intriguing puzzle but BOOMBAWN is the more reliable option. The quirky but talented \Parc d'Amour\p is second best.

One More Fleurie

Jessie Lightfoot

25
25/1(-178%)
(11) Jessie Lightfoot 25/1, Revitalised by a return to Henry Oliver, scoring over fences at Taunton and Southwell before a solid third of 11 back hurdling at Warwick last time. Needs considering despite being 2 lb out of the handicap.
2-4 since rejoining Henry Oliver; 2lb wrong today but still considered.

Dublin Four

200
200/1(-1329%)
(2) Dublin Four 200/1, Largely ran with credit over fences for Fergal O'Brien but off 13 months before only seventh back hurdling at Kempton on his yard debut last month. Handily weighted if back on song reverted to this sphere.

Amrons Sage

450

Stuck to his task pretty well when second at Southwell last month but is not very reliable.

18:50 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 3) 23f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

SCRUM DIDDLY returned from a break when gaining a first success over fences at Southwell last month and the six-year-old remains capable of further progress, especially with conditions in his favour. Morning Spirit bounced back to form when runner-up on his latest start and is likely to be competitive again. Jessie Lightfoot, One More Fleurie and Tiger Orchid appeal most of the remainder.

A few with chances but SCRUM DIDDLY is taken to build on his breakthrough chasing victory at Southwell off just a 2 lb higher mark. Ludlow runner-up Percussion is on a lengthy losing sequence but still feared most, while both Jessie Lightfoot and Dublin Four need factoring into this open contest.

Preference is for PERCUSSION, who chased home an in-form rival in a hunter chase in April and returns to a handicap on a good mark.

Flight Deck

300

Started off for stable with two big runs in the autumn; not in same form this year.

Scored off today's mark in September but has not been firing on all cylinders this year.

19:25 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 23f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Having showed a bit more verve in a first-time tongue-tie when third at Warwick last month, LALLYGAG could be ready to strike. Paul Nicholls' charge could unlock some improvement over this stiffer test of stamina and he shades the verdict over stable debutant Coltor. The seven-year-old is used to keeping better company than this and shouldn't be taken lightly, while cheekpieces look just the aid that could eke some improvement out of Peking Rose, who might also feature prominently.

A chance is taken on BUCKO'S BOY, who proved better than ever last season and could get firmly back on track following a break. Mr Yeats returned from a 7-month absence with a creditable effort at Cartmel last month, while Judicial Law is sure to pose a big threat if returning to anywhere near his best.

He was below form on good to soft ground last time but NORTON HILL made good progress on good ground last season and gets the nod.

19:55 Worcester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow

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

VOCITO made a highly encouraging start for the Olly Murphy stable when only being denied by a length into second at Perth last month. He sets the standard with a rating of 106 and the six-year-old may only need to reproduce that effort in order to go one place better, with his main threat possibly being Reach For The Moon, who was a Group 3 winner on the Flat and can be given another chance after finishing a well-beaten fourth at Sedgefield on hurdling bow, as he was reported to be lame after that particular contest. Jacobs Acre completes the shortlist.

REACH FOR THE MOON was talented on the Flat and had excuses when only fourth on hurdling debut at Sedgefield so, 4 months on, he's worth a chance to open his account in this sphere at the possible expense of Vocito, who sets the standard.

This can go to VOCITO, who ran well in defeat on last month's stable debut and sets a fair standard.

20:25 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

CUSANO improved from first to second start over hurdles when a highly encouraging runner-up at Huntingdon last month and a mark of 98 on handicap debut looks manageable representing in-form connections. Only worn down late in the piece when second at Southwell last time, Ascension Day can give him most to think about, while Jack The Savage has strong claims on his penultimate second at Hereford. Garitsa Bay and The Sad Shepherd cannot be ruled out either.

ASCENSION DAY pulled clear of the rest when runner-up on handicap debut at Southwell last month and can get off the mark here. Cawthorne Cracker and Cusano are feared most.

The one with scope is CUSANO (nap) now in his first handicap. The consistent Ascension Day may well get second.

7/2(+30%)
(7) Giulietta 7/2, From a family that her yard know well and she's placed on all 4 of her completed starts in handicaps, albeit making no impression on the winner when second at Southwell (20.4f) last month. Yard in good form so she could be thereabouts once more.
No match for wide-margin last time but earlier placed form makes her of strong interest.

(8) Mays Hill 450/1, Winner of a Fontwell bumper but yet to really threaten from 4 starts over hurdles, albeit she wasn't disgraced when fifth of 9 on handicap bow at Market Rasen (20.6f) 3 weeks ago. Remains early days so she could fare better with her reappearance run behind her.
Just a respectable fifth on last month's handicap debut, but that came after a long layoff.

0-13 over but lost out only narrowly to a next-time-out winner last month.

(2) Goodtimecrew 350/1, Fair bumper winner who ran to a similar level when finding only one too good first 2 starts in maiden hurdles in November. Promise when third at Stratford (19.4f) on her handicap/chasing debut 25 days ago and she's one to consider back hurdling with cheekpieces added.
Placed on chase/handicap debut despite not jumping well; back hurdling today.

(6) Dancingontheedge 400/1, Shaped well in first-time tongue strap when narrowly denied at Uttoxeter (23.3f) last May, but didn't manage to build on that when fourth of 8 at the same C&D the following month. Has had a wind op since ahead of her return and she's respected for her leading yard.
0-10 over hurdles and absent for one year but resumes on good mark and after wind op.

(11) Boudica Warrior 350/1, Fair maiden at best on the Flat but little form over hurdles for her current trainer, finishing well beaten when last of 6 at Warwick (16f) a fortnight ago. Looks to be up against it from out of the handicap.
Has struggled to get competitive off lowly marks since the autumn.

(5) Janworth 450/1, Didn't show much in her qualifying runs over hurdles, but took a step forward on her handicap debut when second at Fontwell (19.1f) in May. The winner from last time has gone on to score twice since, so she could have more to offer upped further in trip.
Chased home very progressive rival on last month's handicap debut; shortlisted.

Mountain Lake

(3) Mountain Lake 300/1, Fair maiden at her best on the Flat for Saeed bin Suroor. Built on her hurdling debut promise when fourth in a Market Rasen maiden (16.6f) in March, but ran no sort of race when pulled at Fakenham (20f) last month. Bounce back called for as she goes handicapping.
Made the frame on first two hurdling starts but Fakenham last month was disappointing.

Safely held in all four handicaps since Listed third in December but eased in grade today.

Last of three in tactical race on handicap debut; needs to up her game here.

Well beaten on first two starts for current stable; returns from 418-day absence here.

21:00 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

A highly creditable second when making her handicap debut at Fontwell last month behind a progressive mare who has won twice since, JANWORTH is entitled to improve for going up in trip and this looks like a golden opportunity in an average contest. She may not be the most consistent, but Dancingontheedge is well capable on her day and she is a key player, along with the more reliable Giulietta, who has been placed on each of her last three starts.

Having dropped a long way in the weights, ASA returned to form when beaten only by an improver at Market Rasen last time, so she is taken to build on that effort and get her head in front. The main danger could be Dancingontheedge, who is capable of getting involved from her current mark, with Giulietta also in the mix.

Harry Fry's GOODTIMECREW was placed on her chasing debut, despite not jumping well, and may fare better now back over hurdles.

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.
