Form	Odds	Runs
9 1st (9) (14/1 +0%) Metamorpheus	14 14/1(+0%)	(9) Metamorpheus 14/1, Once-raced maiden. Third of 13 in juvenile hurdle at Limerick (16f, heavy, 100/1) on NH debut 21 days ago. That was his first start for 17 months and task now is to build on that here.
1 2nd (1) (5.5/1 -57%) Almuhit	5.5 5.5/1(-57%)	(1) Almuhit 5.5/1, Useful Flat winner who showed plenty to work on when sixth in 18-runner juvenile maiden at Leopardstown (2m) over Christmas, keeping on without being unduly punished. Very much the type to improve.
18 3rd (18) (0.83/1 +34%) Calico	0.83 0.83/1(+34%)	(18) Calico 0.83/1, Has shown more than enough in 8 appearances in juvenile/maiden hurdles to suggest that there are races to be won with her, seen off final 100 yds here (16.4f) on New Year's Eve. Entitled to be firmly in the mix again.
7 4th (7) (8.5/1 -21%) Luminous Light	8.5 8.5/1(-21%)	(7) Luminous Light 8.5/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. 50/1, eighth of 20 in juvenile hurdle at this course (16.4f, heavy) 16 days ago, some headway between 3 and 2 out but never on terms. Likely he can do better still in this sphere.
10 5th (10) (14/1 -17%) Mighty Mo Missouri	14 14/1(-17%)	(10) Mighty Mo Missouri 14/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles, better for debut when keeping on for fifth of 18 in juvenile hurdle at Leopardstown (2m) 16 days ago. A repeat gives him claims of hitting the frame here.
6 6th (6) (6.5/1 +54%) Jacovec Cavern	6.5 6.5/1(+54%)	(6) Jacovec Cavern 6.5/1, Fairly useful Flat winner, making GB/IRE jumps debut. 3/1, won 7-runner handicap at Newbury (13.3f, heavy) 87 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Mick Channon. Interesting hurdles debutant.
15 7th (15) (50/1 +67%) Showman	50 50/1(+67%)	(15) Showman 50/1, Fair maiden on the Flat. 80/1, pulled hard and ran out after the second on juvenile hurdle debut at Leopardstown (2m) over Christmas. This should reveal more with a hood now reached for.
13 8th (13) (250/1 -67%) Secret Rock	250 250/1(-67%)	(13) Secret Rock 250/1, Modest maiden on the Flat. Once-raced maiden. 200/1, nineteenth of 22 in juvenile hurdle at Navan (2m, heavy) on NH debut 50 days ago.

14 \|U\| (14) (125/1 -213%) Self Inflicted Sid	125 125/1(-213%)	(14) Self Inflicted Sid 125/1, Fairly useful Flat winner for Ralph Beckett. Raced wide and proved no threat from 2 out when fourteenth of 18 in juvenile maiden at Leopardstown (2m) in December. May well be brought along with handicaps in mind.
22 \|U\| (22) (150/1 -50%) Steps In The Sand	150 150/1(-50%)	(22) Steps In The Sand 150/1, Modest winner at 12f on Flat. First run since leaving Ms Sheila Lavery when eighth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f, 16/1) 12 days ago. Probaby best watched on hurdles debut.

2 13th (2) (250/1 -67%) Alphonse Le Grande	250 250/1(-67%)	(2) Alphonse Le Grande 250/1, Fair winner at 1ff on the Flat, adding to his tally at Dundalk (10.7f) in November. Notably weak in betting though, and again offered little back over hurdles on debut for this yard here (16.4f) 16 days ago.
12 14th (12) (28/1 -40%) Saraqael	28 28/1(-40%)	(12) Saraqael 28/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Shaped as if better for the run when thirteenth of 20 in juvenile hurdle (40/1) at this course (16.4f, heavy) on NH debut 16 days ago and he's entitled to build on that now.
8 15th (8) (200/1 -400%) Melnik	200 200/1(-400%)	(8) Melnik 200/1, Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. Tongue strap on for 1st time, fifteenth of 20 in juvenile hurdle at this course (16.4f, heavy, 200/1) 16 days ago. one for later on.
20 16th (20) (125/1 +17%) Mont Athena	125 125/1(+17%)	(20) Mont Athena 125/1, 33/1 and hooded, eighth of 13 in maiden at Kempton (11f) on debut in October, merely passing beaten rivals. That was her sole start for Andrew Balding and the betting may prove a useful guide now hurdling.
5 17th (5) (150/1 +25%) Got Grey	150 150/1(+25%)	(5) Got Grey 150/1, Fairly useful Flat winner. Twice-raced maiden over hurdles. 50/1, twelfth of 19 in novice hurdle at Cork (16f, heavy) 9 days ago, never on terms but not knocked about. Likely type for handicaps in due course.
16 18th (16) (150/1 -50%) Uberrima Fides	150 150/1(-50%)	(16) Uberrima Fides 150/1, Modest on Flat who was friendless in the betting and looked a likely longer-term project when fifteenth of 18 in juvenile hurdle at Leopardstown (2m) on hurdles debut 20 days ago.
11 \|PU\| (11) (250/1 -67%) San Pablo	250 250/1(-67%)	(11) San Pablo 250/1, Modest form at best on Flat, again well held (too free) when thirteenth of 14 in Dundalk handicap (10.7f) 33 days ago. Hard to warm to now switched to hurdling.

Remains a good prospect in this sphere.

Beaten some way out at Cheltenham (20.6f) 15 days ago so must bounce back quickly up in trip.

1 1st (1) (3.2/1 -60%) Fay Ce Que Voudras	3.2 3.2/1(-60%)	(1) Fay Ce Que Voudras 3.2/1, Left low-key bumper exploits behind when second on hurdles debut at Ludlow in March 2021. First outing since when chasing home the useful Kateira (winner again since) in a Uttoxeter (15.8f, soft) novice in November and she's open to improvement now pitched into a handicap.
5 2nd (5) (22/1 -83%) Crem Fresh	22 22/1(-83%)	(5) Crem Fresh 22/1, Showed improved form on handicap debut when second at Fakenham in May 2021. Built on that when again hitting the crossbar on sole start last season but she's entitlted to need the run following over a year off.
2 3rd (2) (2.75/1 +61%) Minniemum	2.75 2.75/1(+61%)	(2) Minniemum 2.75/1, From a good family and showed improved form when third in the Uttoxeter novice won by Kateira in November, coming home around 3 lengths adrift of the re-opposing Fay Ce Que Voudras. No further progress when fifth at Ludlow next time, though, and more needed now handicapping.
6 4th (6) (5/1 -150%) Asa	5 5/1(-150%)	(6) Asa 5/1, Encouraging third on hurdles debut at Toulouse last summer, and backed that effort up on UK debut when a clear second in a 15.5f Leicester juvenile for Richard Hobson in November. Leading claims on debut for another new yard here.
9 5th (9) (25/1 +24%) Call Me Sainte	25 25/1(+24%)	(9) Call Me Sainte 25/1, Hasn't shown much in 4 starts to date, including when returning from a lengthy absence at Exeter recently. Big step forwarded needed on this handicap debut.
4 6th (4) (33/1 -83%) Stamina Chope	33 33/1(-83%)	(4) Stamina Chope 33/1, Opened chase account off 1 lb lower at Sedgefield last spring but she's 0-14 in this sphere and is opposable back from a 7-month break.
3 7th (3) (3.33/1 +52%) Lady Gwen	3.33 3.33/1(+52%)	(3) Lady Gwen 3.33/1, Raised her game when second in a Ffos Las novice in October and wasn't disgraced when fourth of 9 on recent handicap bow at Newbury (16.3f, soft) where she didn't see things out as well as one would've hoped. Still, she's 3 lb lower here and should have a part to play.
10 8th (10) (66/1 +0%) Jesse's Lady	66 66/1(+0%)	(10) Jesse's Lady 66/1, Hinted at ability in 2 runs over hurdles in 2019/20 for Bernard Llewellyn. However, didn't show much for Deborah Faulkner following a significant layoff last season and it's hard to envisage her faring any better starting out for another new yard here.
7 \|F\| (7) (8/1 +33%) Sa Alors	8 8/1(+33%)	(7) Sa Alors 8/1, Proved that ability remains intact following a lengthy absence when fifth of 14 in a 19f Warwick handicap recently. Dropping back in trip here will help and place possibilities if able to build on that effort.
8 \|PU\| (8) (40/1 -122%) Doctor Dotty	40 40/1(-122%)	(8) Doctor Dotty 40/1, Signs of ability on just one of her 3 starts over hurdles for Polly Walker in 2021 and probably best watched on debut for new yard/handicap bow following a 19-month absence.
12 \|PU\| (12) (40/1 +20%) Intriguing Lady	40 40/1(+20%)	(12) Intriguing Lady 40/1, Essentially exposed as a poor maiden in this sphere and looks up against it from 11 lb out of the weights.

3 7th (3) (14/1 -87%) Guillemot	14 14/1(-87%)	(3) Guillemot 14/1, Scored over hurdles at Ascot following a wind op in February but that was his only completion in his last 6 starts and he now has plenty to prove back in this sphere.
4 \|PU\| (4) (6/1 -71%) Pay The Pilot	6 6/1(-71%)	(4) Pay The Pilot 6/1, Second in Punchestown bumper. Acquired for £130,000 after and won 3-runner novice at Ffos Las (20f, good) on hurdles bow last March. Much respected on his handicap debut despite having an absence to overcome.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 1st (5) (5.5/1 -65%) Marmara Star	5.5 5.5/1(-65%)	(5) Marmara Star 5.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Eighth of 10 in maiden at Chelmsford City (7f, 80/1) 13 days ago, slowly away. This daughter of Golden Horn can take a sizeable step forward now going handicapping with her stamina drawn out more. Interesting.
1 2nd (1) (2/1 +60%) Densetsu	2 2/1(+60%)	(1) Densetsu 2/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 28/1, fair sixth of 10 in minor event at Lingfield (10f, AW) 25 days ago. Much respected on her handicap debut.
6 3rd (6) (20/1 -25%) Mother India	20 20/1(-25%)	(6) Mother India 20/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, creditable third of 4 in handicap (25/1) at Kempton (8f) 10 days ago. One for the shortlist in her bid for a maiden success.
4 4th (4) (4.5/1 -29%) Smooth Ryder	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(4) Smooth Ryder 4.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 7/1, seventh of 9 in minor event at Redcar (7f, heavy) 76 days ago. Significantly up in trip on handicap debut and not dismissed.

3 6th (3) (8/1 -129%) Bright Side Girl	8 8/1(-129%)	(3) Bright Side Girl 8/1, Off 4 months before only ninth of 10 in maiden at Chelmsford City (7f, 16/1) 13 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Not ruled out.

Form	Odds	Runs
6 1st (6) (2.25/1 +18%) Follow Your Heart	2.25 2.25/1(+18%)	(6) Follow Your Heart 2.25/1, Course winner. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 15/8, respectable second of 10 in handicap at this C&D 34 days ago, left poorly placed. One of the more likely candidates.
4 2nd (4) (3.5/1 -27%) Aljari	3.5 3.5/1(-27%)	(4) Aljari 3.5/1, Course winner. Thirteen runs since last win in 2020. 5/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at Chelmsford City (7f) 46 days ago, finishing with running left. Merits serious consideration off the same mark.
3 3rd (3) (16/1 -100%) Meng Tian	16 16/1(-100%)	(3) Meng Tian 16/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 8 in handicap (7/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 9 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time and each-way chance if the new headgear has the desired effect.
8 4th (8) (9/1 +44%) Tipperary Moon	9 9/1(+44%)	(8) Tipperary Moon 9/1, Latest win at Newmarket in July. Good fourth of 14 in handicap (13/2) at Southwell (7.1f) 27 days ago. Looks vulnerable from a win point of view.
1 5th (1) (6.5/1 +35%) Spacer	6.5 6.5/1(+35%)	(1) Spacer 6.5/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 10/1, pulled up in handicap at this course (8.6f) 38 days ago. Looks risky on the back of that display.
7 6th (7) (14/1 -100%) Lord Paramount	14 14/1(-100%)	(7) Lord Paramount 14/1, Lightly-raced C&D winner. Ninth of 14 in handicap (2/1) at Southwell (7.1f) 27 days ago. Now finds himself with a bit to prove.
10 7th (10) (5/1 -25%) Jupiter Express	5 5/1(-25%)	(10) Jupiter Express 5/1, Didn't need to improve to win 10-runner handicap at this C&D (5/1) 7 days ago, sticking to task. Escapes a penalty and obvious claims.
9 8th (9) (8/1 +50%) Barneys Gift	8 8/1(+50%)	(9) Barneys Gift 8/1, 10/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at this C&D 34 days ago. Likely to find a few too good once more.
5 9th (5) (150/1 -50%) Dutch Admiral	150 150/1(-50%)	(5) Dutch Admiral 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden on Flat. Modest winner over hurdles. Last of 8 in handicap at this course (9.5f, 100/1) 13 days ago. Down in trip and it's best to look elsewhere.
2 10th (2) (150/1 -50%) More Joy	150 150/1(-50%)	(2) More Joy 150/1, Refused to race in novice hurdle (80/1) at Catterick (15.7f, soft) 19 days ago. Well beaten on latest start in this sphere in November and she's hard to warm to.

2 1st (2) (3.33/1 +17%) Business	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(2) Business 3.33/1, Successful at Dundalk in February. No real impact in either start for new connections, however.
1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Free Solo	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(1) Free Solo 3.5/1, Landed back-to back handicaps at Lingfield at the turn of the year and has acquitted himself well in defeat at same course twice since. Looks sure to go well again.
4 3rd (4) (100/1 +0%) Twm Sion	100 100/1(+0%)	(4) Twm Sion 100/1, Twice-raced maiden on Flat. 150/1, ninth of 10 in juvenile hurdle at Hereford (16.2f, soft) on NH debut 12 days ago. Down in trip. Poor on last Flat outing.

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (8/1 -45%) Solent Gateway	8 8/1(-45%)	(3) Solent Gateway 8/1, Ran right up to best when solid third in last year's Northumberland Plate prior to seemingly finding extended 20f trip too taxing at Goodwood final start. Had wind op, shaped as if needing first start for 5 months at Southwell (16.4f) 8 days ago. May well step up a good deal on that.
4 2nd (4) (1/1 +43%) Barenboim	1 1/1(+43%)	(4) Barenboim 1/1, Thrived on AW upon joining present yard, his turn of foot again proving decisive as he added a fourth success to his tally at Lingfield (12f) 9 days ago. Interesting connections opt for a marked step up in trip now and he's well worth a second look.
2 3rd (2) (9/1 -6%) Withhold	9 9/1(-6%)	(2) Withhold 9/1, Veteran. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Eleventh of 13 in handicap at Kempton (2m, 11/1) 40 days ago, hanging right 2f out and weakening final 1f. Visor replaces cheekpieces now but others arrive with more pressing claims.
1 4th (1) (3/1 +0%) Imperium	3 3/1(+0%)	(1) Imperium 3/1, Six wins from 18 Flat runs. 9/2, respectable sixth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 40 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Has fallen back down to last winning mark now and he's not out of things on balance.
7 5th (7) (6/1 -9%) Mukha Magic	6 6/1(-9%)	(7) Mukha Magic 6/1, Tasted success 5 times during a fruitful 2022 and better for a recent run when landing 13-runner handicap (6/1) at Lingfield (15.8f, AW) 9 days ago, well positioned. This tougher back up in grade but he's a likeable sort who should give another good account.

Versatile as regards trip and likely to be in the mix back at the minimum/equipped with first-time blinkers.
2 2nd (2) (1.62/1 +35%) Erosion Risk	1.62 1.62/1(+35%)	(2) Erosion Risk 1.62/1, Fair gelding. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Good second of 5 in novice event (2/1) at Chelmsford (5f) 4 days ago, helping to force pace and no extra final 50 yds. Should be thereabouts again under Hollie Doyle.
3 3rd (3) (20/1 -122%) Pride Of Yorkshire	20 20/1(-122%)	(3) Pride Of Yorkshire 20/1, Makes some appeal on paper and not without promise on 2 of his 3 starts in maiden/novice events on turf last summer. Cheekpeieces go on back from another break but handicaps entitled to be more his bag moving forward.
5 4th (5) (4.5/1 +10%) Goldcasing	4.5 4.5/1(+10%)	(5) Goldcasing 4.5/1, Showcasing filly. Dam, 5f/6f winner (second in Ballyogan Stakes), out of Queen Mary Stakes winner Gilded. Makes plenty of appeal on paper for a yard who are adept at readying a newcomer, so well worth a check in betting for positive vibes.
4 5th (4) (66/1 -65%) Dazy Mazy	66 66/1(-65%)	(4) Dazy Mazy 66/1, £3,000 yearling, Massaat filly. Half-sister to 6f winner Stanley Snugfit. Dam 5f/6f winner. Minor promise in pair of novice events at up to 5.8f on turf during the summer but she's another who is likely to come in to her own in handicaps this year.

10 5th (10) (66/1 +34%) Ubahha	66 66/1(+34%)	(10) Ubahha 66/1, One win from 28 Flat runs. Repprtedly bled when last of 12 on stable debut at Chelmsford City (5f) 46 days ago. Operating below best prior to that run and has lots to prove at present.
1 6th (1) (33/1 -32%) Prince Of Rome	33 33/1(-32%)	(1) Prince Of Rome 33/1, C&D winner. Fifteen runs since last win in 2020. Tenth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Chepstow (5.1f, good to firm). Off 8 months. First run for yard after leaving Michael Mullineaux. Lots to prove despite booking of good-value claimer.
7 7th (7) (25/1 -25%) Glamorous Force	25 25/1(-25%)	(7) Glamorous Force 25/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in October but hasn't made an impact in 3 starts since. Cheekpieces back on. Needs a couple of these to falter.
5 8th (5) (8/1 -33%) Astrophysics	8 8/1(-33%)	(5) Astrophysics 8/1, Course winner. Latest win here in November. Good second of 10 in handicap at this course (6.1f, 11/2) 20 days ago. Not taken lightly despite poor draw.
2 8th (2) (14/1 +36%) Pandemic Princess	14 14/1(+36%)	(2) Pandemic Princess 14/1, Promising stable debut for this yard in November but has struggled for form since and needs to bounce back with blinkers now applied.
9 10th (9) (10/1 -100%) Griggy	10 10/1(-100%)	(9) Griggy 10/1, Course winner. Three wins from 15 runs last year. Latest win at Kempton in October. Creditable fourth of 10 in handicap (7/1) at this course (6.1f) 20 days ago, nearest finish. Place claims.
4 11th (4) (3.5/1 +53%) Hot Diggity Dog	3.5 3.5/1(+53%)	(4) Hot Diggity Dog 3.5/1, Ran poorly on stable debut when last of 11 in handicap at this course (7.2f) 51 days ago. Down in trip with mark continuing to slide but he's hard to fancy on recent form.

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.
