Gerard Mentor

8
8/1(+20%)
(7) Gerard Mentor 8/1, Winless over hurdles since scoring 4 times in 2022 and has gone the wrong way in 3 starts since making the frame at Ludlow in May. However, did at least offer something to work on switched to fences over C&D 3 weeks ago.
Made satisfactory chase debut over C&D last month but has some quirks; others look safer.

2nd (4) Moodofthemoment (4/1 +0%)
Moodofthemoment

4
4/1(+0%)
(4) Moodofthemoment 4/1, Modest form at best over hurdles/fences for David Pipe, Won all 3 of his point starts prior to finishing well held over hurdles on sole start for David Dennis. Shaped well after another stable switch when second over C&D last month and needs considering.
Won three points in the spring and was second over C&D on recent stable debut; shortlisted.

3rd (11) Royal Max (4/1 +43%)
Royal Max

4
4/1(+43%)
(11) Royal Max 4/1, Made the frame on 4 of his last 5 outings, including when third back over fences at Market Rasen last month. That was only his second start over fences so entitled to do better in this sphere.
Pulled up on chasing debut but last month's Market Rasen third was much better; e-w claims.

Goaheadwiththeplan

11
11/1(-120%)
(6) Goaheadwiththeplan 11/1, Maiden hurdler but made his second chase start a winning one at Uttoxeter in July 2022. Subsequently absent for 22 months and easily best effort since when respectable third over C&D 3 weeks ago. May come on again.
Proved some ability remains when third over C&D last month, his third run after a layoff.

100/1(-203%)
(3) Holerday Ridge 100/1, Fair winner over hurdles and came good over fences in a 19f Ffos Las handicap in May 2023. Not in anything like the same form since, however.
Pulled up on both outings this year; drops back in trip with huge amount to prove.

Herecomeshogan

7.5
15/2(+25%)
(9) Herecomeshogan 15/2, Dual hurdles winner who was proving inconsistent over fences over the winter. However, excuses both starts this season and eased to a tempting mark.
In front before saddle slipped two out here in July; 3lb lower now; a possible.
14
7th (14) Go On Ya Goodthing (9/2 +40%)
Go On Ya Goodthing

4.5
9/2(+40%)
(14) Go On Ya Goodthing 9/2, Modest maiden hurdler for David Brace and looked in need of the experience sent chasing by his new yard after 4 months off at Newton Abbot 11 days ago.
Managed only fourth of six on recent stable/chase debut; improvement required.
2
8th (2) Mutual Respect (9/1 -157%)
Mutual Respect

9
9/1(-157%)
(2) Mutual Respect 9/1, Belatedly shed his maiden tag at Uttoxeter (2m) in July 2023 and followed it with good efforts over this C&D. Likely to go well again if fully tuned up on return.
In good form over C&D when last in action, but that was nearly a year ago.
10
9th (10) Berliet Express (66/1 -164%)
Berliet Express

66
66/1(-164%)
(10) Berliet Express 66/1, Dual winner over hurdles but remains a maiden over fences, running no sort of a race after a 4-month absence at Southwell in June (bled). Off again since.
Had excuse when pulled up last time but overall profile remains unconvincing.
5

Voix De Bocelli

50
50/1(-52%)
(5) Voix De Bocelli 50/1, Fair form in France for Francois Nicolle but has generally struggled for this yard, including on chase bow latest.
Well beaten after racing too freely on last month's chase debut; now 0-12 overall.
1
10th (1) Blueberry Wine (16/1 -100%)
Blueberry Wine

16
16/1(-100%)
(1) Blueberry Wine 16/1, Five-time winner over fences who ran well when placed in a pair of novice hurdles at Ludlow/Kelso during the spring but couldn't replicate that level returned to this sphere last 2 starts. Mark continues to ease at least.
Not at best lately but can be dangerous off this mark if perked up by new cheekpieces.
8
11th (8) Groom De Cotte (11/1 +31%)
Groom De Cotte

11
11/1(+31%)
(8) Groom De Cotte 11/1, Long-standing maiden who ended time with Sean Curran with a respectable third over hurdles at Stratford in May but has been down the field in 3 outings over fences for this yard.
17-race maiden who has struggled on all three starts for current stable.
12
12th (12) The Gambler (25/1 +24%)
The Gambler

25
25/1(+24%)
(12) The Gambler 25/1, A fair bumper winner but she has failed to match that form over hurdles and fences, coming in only ninth of 10 in handicap chase at Bangor (20.3f, good) 40 days ago. Others are preferred.
No match for winner when second at Stratford in May and two lesser efforts have followed.

16:03 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

Mutual Respect was in good heart at this time last year and market support on his return from a 348-day absence would be interesting. However, ROYAL MAX found only a pair of improving chasers too strong on his second outing over fences at Market Rasen last month and the six-year-old shades the verdict racing off a 2lb lower mark. Moodofthemoment also enters calculations after a promising second on his stable bow over C&D.

MUTUAL RESPECT looks sure to give another good account if ready to go on his first start for 11 months. Moodofthemoment shaped well starting out for this yard when second over C&D 3 weeks ago and is next best ahead of Royal Max.

Five-time chase winner BLUEBERRY WINE has not been at his best this year but is well handicapped and might be boosted by cheekpieces.

6
6/1(-80%)
(5) Roccovango 6/1, Built on yard debut when opening account in 15-runner maiden hurdle at Huntingdon (19.5f, heavy) before following up under a penalty at Hexham. Much be respected now going chasing.
Dual novice hurdle winner in the spring; enters calculations on this chasing debut.

Envious Editor

10
10/1(+29%)
(4) Envious Editor 10/1, Bounced back to his best following a point success for Mrs C. Crow in 2m5f Stratford hunter chase in May. Decent start for this yard when fifth of 16 in handicap chase at Uttoxeter (20f, good to firm) 45 days ago and merits consideration.
Three-time hunter chase winner; shaped well on stable debut at Uttoxeter in July.
10
3rd (10) Thank You Blue (8/1 +33%)
Thank You Blue

8
8/1(+33%)
(10) Thank You Blue 8/1, A fair winner at 17f over hurdles. Made an encouraging start in this sphere when third at Cartmel. Pulled up at Market Rasen next time but likely to have gone close when falling 3 out over C&D last month. Of interest off the same mark.
In contention before falling at third-last fence over C&D last month; still on good mark.
3
4th (3) Next Left (5/6 +56%)
Next Left

0.833333
5/6(+56%)
(3) Next Left 5/6, Taken well to fences, winning 2 of his 3 starts, much improved when impressive winner over C&D 10 days ago. Obvious claims under a penalty.

Opening Bid

(2) Opening Bid 11/1, Won 5 times over fences in 2023. Mixed record this season, though latest third at Newton Abbot was one of his better efforts. Headgear on.
Has mixed record this year but ran fairly well last week; cheekpieces tried today.

As Tears Go By

66
66/1(-136%)
(7) As Tears Go By 66/1, Hit the target twice for Gordon Elliott last May but form tailed off badly thereafter and no show in 3 outings for this yard this summer. Makes chase debut.
Well beaten on all three hurdling starts this season; makes chasing debut today.
1
7th (1) Dorrells Pierji (33/1 -18%)
Dorrells Pierji

33
33/1(-18%)
(1) Dorrells Pierji 33/1, Veteran chaser who scored twice over hurdles in 2022 when with Dan Skelton. Retains much of his ability judging by a prolific recent spell in points and the way he shaped for most of the way on return to Rules here 3 weeks ago.
5-6 in points this year and gave it a pretty good shot when back under rules last month.
9
8th (9) Ballydesmond (20/1 -186%)
Ballydesmond

20
20/1(-186%)
(9) Ballydesmond 20/1, Winner of a hunter chase in Ireland in May 2023 but has offered little for present connections.
Irish point/hunter chase winner; yet to hit form for current yard but not written off yet.
6
|PU| (6) Gloire D'athon (14/1 -40%)
Gloire D'athon

14
14/1(-40%)
(6) Gloire D'athon 14/1, Prolific early in his chasing career (winning 5 of his first 6 starts) but lost his way last season. Tumbled down the weights but shown enough in 3 starts this term to suggest he'll be taking advantage anytime soon.
Useful form when winning twice in spring 2023 but not firing on all cylinders this year.

16:35 Worcester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

It's hard to look beyond NEXT LEFT after his 15-length romp over track and trip at the start of the month. Dan Skelton's charge is fancied to make light work of a 7lb penalty and a third victory over fences is anticipated. The hat-trick seeking Roccovango has impressed with his determination over hurdles and he may serve the most resistance to the selection on his chase bow. Thank You Blue and Duke Of Luckley are others to consider.

NEXT LEFT is clearly a much better chaser than hurdler and looks capable of defying a penalty given the manner of his win over C&D 10 days ago. Thank You Blue was going well when falling 3 out over C&D last month and rates the main threat ahead of the in-form Duke of Luckley.

Improving 8yo NEXT LEFT won by 15l over C&D ten days ago and still looks well handicapped under a 7lb penalty.

25/1(+0%)

Oceanline

5.5
11/2(-57%)
(5) Oceanline 11/2, Flat/hurdles winner for this yard who returned to form to capitalise on a career-low mark at this course (23f) last month. Remains well treated, so worthy of consideration.
Resumed winning ways here 23 days ago; up 4lb but he's well in the mix again.
11
2nd (11) Long Draw (3/1 +0%)
Long Draw

3
3/1(+0%)
(11) Long Draw 3/1, £60,000 Irish point recruit who has upped his game since switched to handicaps and was well on top at the finish when scoring at Ffos Las almost 4 months ago. More to come and should be involved.
Off the mark at Ffos Las in May; very much one to consider despite a 6lb weights rise.
4
3rd (4) Hostile Hotelier (12/1 +14%)
Hostile Hotelier

12
12/1(+14%)
(4) Hostile Hotelier 12/1, Made a winning handicap debut over hurdles at Hexham in November. Doubled his tally back in this sphere with a tongue strap added at Southwell in March but pulled up there next time. Has been off 5 months.
Pulled up at Southwell on final start; he's the sort to bounce back after a break.
12

Ted's Friend

20
20/1(-25%)
(12) Ted's Friend 20/1, Fairly useful hurdler at best but hasn't performed back from a long absence this term. Others make more appeal.

Kosasiempre

16
16/1(-167%)
(14) Kosasiempre 16/1, 10/1, career best when winning 9-runner handicap hurdle at Market Rasen (20.6f, good) 96 days ago, finding extra. Has turned over a new leaf this season and on the up now, so worthy of respect.
On a hat-trick after pair of 2m4f handicap hurdle wins at Market Rasen; not taken lightly.
1
6th (1) Walk Of No Shame (11/1 +21%)
Walk Of No Shame

11
11/1(+21%)
(1) Walk Of No Shame 11/1, Left a very low-key reappearance effort in her wake when winning 8-runner handicap hurdle over C&D in June. Somewhat lacklustre on both subsequent outings but has had a break ahead of this.
C&D winner in June but only 11th at Uttoxeter 47 days ago; she needs to bounce back.
7
7th (7) Gris Majeur (40/1 -186%)
Gris Majeur

40
40/1(-186%)
(7) Gris Majeur 40/1, Fair hurdler who returned to form when runner-up at Warwick on latest outing. Hasn't been seen for 18 months subsequently, though, so hard to know how much ability he retains.
Off 18 months since a very good second at Warwick; needs to hit the ground running.

Could Be Trouble

14

(9) Could Be Trouble 14/1, Back on track in the spring, last seen running creditably when fifth at Market Rasen almost 3 months ago. Mark is fair, so could be on the premises.
Not disgraced when fifth at Market Rasen in June; had a wind op so she needs considering.

(13) Calagogo 150/1, Yet to hit top form for his current yard, pulled up in handicap hurdle here (23f, good) 23 days ago. Hard to fancy.
Fairly useful for Gordon Elliott but yet to match that form for his current handler.

Zestful Hope

10

(3) Zestful Hope 10/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 4/1, fourth of 7 in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good to soft) 170 days ago. Fairly treated if he's sufficiently prepared for this return.
11 starts since last win but a solid fourth at Huntingdon in the spring; possibilities.

Lough Owel

33

Presenting Nelly

2.25
9/4(+63%)
(10) Presenting Nelly 9/4, Third hurdle win of last season when landing a 20.5f handicap at the Ayr Scottish National meeting in April. Back on track and shaped as if she'd strip fitter for the run when sixth at Uttoxeter last time. Big player.
Encouraging Uttoxeter sixth on her return; form been franked so she's a player eased 1lb.

Scorsese

33

Failed to fire at Uttoxeter/Fontwell for current yard in the spring; plenty more is needed.

17:10 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 20f  Race Class Flow

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

Having stayed on doggedly to open his account at Ffos Las in May, it may pay to stick with the lightly-raced LONG DRAW. That first victory was the five-year-old's second appearance in handicap company and he may have enough improvement in him to defy a 6lb rise. Kosasiempre arrives on the back of a double at Market Rasen and she warrants respect in her bid for a hat-trick. Dual course winner Oceanline is sure to have his supporters too.

Previous C&D winner PRESENTING NELLY hasn't finished improving yet and she shaped better than the result at Uttoxeter last time, so she's fancied to get back to winning ways at the possible expense of Long Draw, who scored impressively at Ffos Las when last seen. Oceanline and Kosasiempre are others to consider.

Dan Skelton's PRESENTING NELLY (nap) looks primed for a bold showing on the back of her promising Uttoxeter sixth and gets the vote

14

(4) Lahinch Wave 14/1, Half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser Panda Boy (2½m-3m winner), stays 29f: dam unraced, closely related to fairly useful hurdler/fair chaser Friend's Amigo and half-sister to useful hurdler/fairly useful chaser (best at 3m+) Garruth. Third only start in Irish points and that was back in 2022.
Close third on Irish point debut in October 2022; makes rules debut after long layoff.

Dameofthecotswolds

1.25
5/4(+38%)
(12) Dameofthecotswolds 5/4, Stepped up on previous form over timber when second in juvenile handicap at Cheltenham in April, suited by strong pace. Shaped better than the bare result from 4 lb out of the weights at Kelso before fluffing her lines at Uttoxeter in May. Back from a break but fitness no concern.
Flopped when odds-on last time but her spring handicap form makes her the one to beat.

(10) The Dream Goes On 28/1, Out of a winning hurdler and hinted at ability in bumpers last term. Sound-enough start to hurdles career when fourth in a 2m novice here 3 weeks ago and she's now up in trip.
Just a respectable fourth here (2m) on hurdle debut; improvement needed.

Clear second over 2m here last month and can improve again over this longer trip.

17:40 Worcester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow

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

MISS GOLDFIRE showed major improvement from her first to second start over hurdles when runner-up over 2m here, shaping as though stepping up in trip would suit. The five-year-old gets that opportunity now and she can get off the mark, possibly at the main expense of last-time-out course bumper winner Rockola Vogue. Confidential Gosip is a player on her first start for new connections, and Dameofthecotswolds and The Dream Goes On cannot be ruled out either.

There should be plenty more to come from bumper winner MISS GOLDFIRE over hurdles and on pedigree, this step up in trip really ought to suit, She's just about the percentage call, though Dameofthecotswolds is dangerous in receipt of weight all round for her in-form yard, with Rockola Vogue also of interest now tackling obstacles.

She has a point to prove after a poor run in May but DAMEOFTHECOTSWOLDS ought to be too good for this field if back in good form.

Mahler Moon

2.5
5/2(+38%)
(5) Mahler Moon 5/2, In top hands and, back from 4 months off, he returned to form when third of 11 in handicap hurdle (7/1) at this C&D (good) 14 days ago, having run of race. Has had a number of chances already but he's entitled to be thereabouts again.
0-9 but good C&D handicap third two weeks ago; can make presence felt back in a maiden.

6th (2) Anytrixwilldo (11/1 -120%)
Anytrixwilldo

11
11/1(-120%)
(2) Anytrixwilldo 11/1, Showed plenty when midfield in 10-runner Chepstow novice (2m) during early 2023. Didn't progress as expected in trio of starts last season but possible testing ground didn't suit him then and feasible to think he could get back on the up as a 6-y-o.
Disappointed when remote third at Exeter last spring but can't be ruled out after a break.

Almuhit

10/1(+0%)
(1) Almuhit 10/1, Fairly useful maiden hurdler at his best but he proved to be a disappointment on debut for new yard when fifth of 9 in novice hurdle at Fontwell (19.1f) on Sunday. Needs to leave that behind turned out quickly.
Fairly useful for Emmet Mullins but well below par for new yard at Fontwell 3 days ago.

8th (10) The Flying Poet (7/1 -40%)
The Flying Poet

7/1(-40%)
(10) The Flying Poet 7/1, €90,000 3-y-o, Milan gelding. Built on his hurdles debut effort when rallying for second in 9-runner Hexham maiden (20f) back in June. Further increase in trip now promises to suit on that evidence and he's open to further improvement.
Running-on Hexham second latest; more to offer over further here so he's in the mix.

Noble Cave

100/1(-300%)
(7) Noble Cave 100/1, First sign of ability over hurdles when a well-held fourth in course novice (20f) 3 weeks ago but a lot more will be needed to get competitive here. Yard hold stronger claims with Anytrixwilldo.
First form when fourth in novice hurdle here three weeks ago; he needs to build on it.

Chancycourt

4/1(+33%)
(3) Chancycourt 4/1, Very lightly raced for an 8-y-o and he ran creditably when second of 14 in novice hurdle at Southwell (20.4f, good) in June. Not out of the question he could yet have more to offer now his stamina is tested further.
Good second in 2m4f Southwell novice hurdle in June; one to consider stepped up in trip.

(8) O'grady's Boy 150/1, Veteran who has offered little over hurdles/fences in recent seasons and percentage call is to look elsewhere returning from 13 months off.
Remains winless and returns from 13 months off with enough to prove.

18:10 Worcester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 23f Race Class Flow

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

The Olly Murphy stable has been going well of late and this looks like a decent opportunity for THE FLYING POET on the back of a narrow runner-up effort at Hexham. The five-year-old is expected to improve for stepping up in trip and it may be that Southwell second Chancycourt gives him the most to think about. A creditable third in a C&D handicap last time out, Mahler Moon is another to consider, as are Almuhit and King Roly.

It's feasible to think ANYTRIXWILLDO remains with a bigger effort in his locker judged on his initial promise and, having possibly found deep ground against him in a light 2023/24 campaign, he could be worth chancing to hit the ground running over the longest trip he's faced. Bumper scorer King Roly, Chancycourt and Mahler Moon head up the dangers, with The Flying Poet another to keep an eye on upped further in distance.

This could rest between hurdling debutants KING ROLY and Moonset with preference for Peter and Michael Bowen's Perth bumper scorer

Slightly fortuitous winner here latest; bit to prove over this far and incurs 7lb penalty..

Scored here (2m4f, good) in June and showed over C&D latest that he has each-way claims..

Big player if at her best but she has a couple of lesser efforts to shrug off..

18:40 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

Santa Clarita was the beneficiary of a final-flight faller over 2m4f here on her stable debut, but it would come as no surprise were she to progress further and she looks an obvious candidate under the penalty. BEST MATE DAVE finished third that day, but he was hampered on two separate occasions so is backed to turn the tables on the revised terms and back over further. Others to note include Catuaba and Mactavish.

SANTA CLARITA might have been a fortunate winner here last time but it was still a firm step in the right direction for her new stable and, with more to offer, she's worth a chance to defy a penalty. Indian Sunbird should be on the premises along with Mactavish.

The suggestion is INDIAN SUNBIRD, who was in good form here prior to a spill last time and will see out every yard.

19:10 Worcester Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

HEDERA PARK was in command when coming to grief at the last over 2m4f here recently, in a race eventually won by Santa Clarita (engaged to run in the 6.40). Debra Hamer's mare is able to compete off a 1lb lower mark and, if coping with a drop in trip, is fancied to gain compensation. Caldwell returns to jumping having posted a couple of solid efforts on the Flat and he makes plenty of appeal, along with the unexposed Cusano and Scintillante.

SCINTILLANTE produced an effort more in keeping with his Flat form when runner-up in a C&D maiden 10 days ago and looks up to going one better on this switch to handicaps if he can reproduce it. Hedera Park had the race at her mercy when falling at the last here on her most recent outing and is sure to pose a big threat if none the worse, with Caldwell also of interest having taken advantage of a reduced mark in emphatic fashion over C&D in July.

Preference is for SCINTILLANTE, whose latest effort gives him a good chance of going one better in this field, granted a repeat.

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.
