13:30 Lingfield Stakes (Class 5) 16f - 8 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (0.3/1 +17%) Zonisty	0.3 0.3/1(+17%)	(1) Zonisty 0.3/1, Landed a C&D bumper in November then ran well under a penalty when runner-up back here the following month. Very much the one to beat.
8 2nd (8) (11/1 +67%) War Bonnet	11 11/1(+67%)	(8) War Bonnet 11/1, Bred for the Flat and hinted at ability when mid-field at Huntingdon in November. Failed to fire at Southwell subsequently but each-way claims if able to get back on track.
5 3rd (5) (40/1 -21%) Bella Madonna	40 40/1(-21%)	(5) Bella Madonna 40/1, Eastern Anthem mare. Dam, 2m-2¼m hurdle winner, out of half-sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler (2¾m-3m winner) Material World. Market should be a guide with regard to expectations.
2 4th (2) (80/1 +20%) Its Going Rome	80 80/1(+20%)	(2) Its Going Rome 80/1, Yet to show anything and will need to take a big step forward following a wind op if he's to make an impact.
7 5th (7) (4.5/1 +25%) Elusive Enemy	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(7) Elusive Enemy 4.5/1, Shaped better than the bare result when sixth in a 13-runner Doncaster bumper (16.6f, good to soft) on recent debut. Wouldn't need to improve much on that to make an impact here.
4 6th (4) (16/1 +20%) Ropeman	16 16/1(+20%)	(4) Ropeman 16/1, Telescope gelding. Dam, lightly raced in bumpers/over hurdles, half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stayed 3¼m) Benbane Head. Probably best watched on debut, unless the betting suggests otherwise.
3 7th (3) (66/1 -100%) Looksee	66 66/1(-100%)	(3) Looksee 66/1, Sent off at 80/1 and was well adrift of Zonisty when sixth in the C&D bumper won by Ledders in December.
6 8th (6) (20/1 -43%) Cheeky Chester	20 20/1(-43%)	(6) Cheeky Chester 20/1, Life Force gelding. Dam showed little in bumpers/over hurdles. Yard 0-8 in bumpers and this 4-y-o doesn't appeal as a probable first-time-out winner.

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

13:45 Ayr Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 20f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
4 1st (4) (1.5/1 +0%) Lone Star	1.5 1.5/1(+0%)	(4) Lone Star 1.5/1, Well backed a couple of occasions before finally coming good back in trip at Newcastle in December. That form well advertised since and she lost little in defeat against a progressive one at Market Rasen. Major claims from same mark.
7 2nd (7) (6/1 -9%) Poppy Rose	6 6/1(-9%)	(7) Poppy Rose 6/1, Down in the weights and offered a bit more when third of 8 at Sedgefield (16.8f) latest. Shaped as though worth a go at this trip and she's not yet exposed.
11 3rd (11) (8/1 +68%) Joanna I'm Fine	8 8/1(+68%)	(11) Joanna I'm Fine 8/1, Maiden who ran much better than previously in handicaps when third on return here (3m) in October. Failed to back that up at Musselburgh and out of the weights again.
9 4th (9) (6.5/1 +19%) Your Place	6.5 6.5/1(+19%)	(9) Your Place 6.5/1, Long-standing maiden who spurned a golden opportunity at Kelso in November, idling and collared close home. Disappointing effort at this venue last month and she's undergone wind surgery.
1 5th (1) (9/1 -50%) Animore	9 9/1(-50%)	(1) Animore 9/1, Down in the weights and took a step back in the right direction when narrowly denied at Kelso in September. Test of speed against her at Musselburgh last month and this is an easier race.
2 6th (2) (14/1 +22%) Dot Cotton	14 14/1(+22%)	(2) Dot Cotton 14/1, Fair ex-Irish maiden. Hinted at a revival when third of 9 in 2m handicap here in December but disappointing back up in trip last month. Hood now reached for.
6 7th (6) (18/1 -29%) Reve De Niamh	18 18/1(-29%)	(6) Reve De Niamh 18/1, Runner-up in a Taunton bumper back last January (only outing for Fergal O'Brien) but little promise in novice/handicap hurdles this season. Hopes rest on a breathing operation.
5 8th (5) (18/1 +28%) Dolly Dancer	18 18/1(+28%)	(5) Dolly Dancer 18/1, Won over fences at Hexham in June but has lost her way since, including back over hurdles on the back of a wind op last month.
8 9th (8) (8/1 +0%) Topkapi Star	8 8/1(+0%)	(8) Topkapi Star 8/1, Ended a long losing run in 4-runner handicap hurdle at Perth (23.9f, 15/8) in September. Drop to 19.7f looked against her at Wetherby 3 weeks ago. One of the likelier candidates.
10 10th (10) (50/1 -25%) Brave Bairn	50 50/1(-25%)	(10) Brave Bairn 50/1, Modest at best in bumpers for Oliver Sherwood. Similar story in 4 hurdles for Nick Alexander (handicap debut latest) but she's best watched returning for a new yard after 17 months off the track.
12 11th (12) (66/1 -136%) Halcyon Dreams	66 66/1(-136%)	(12) Halcyon Dreams 66/1, Long-standing maiden who is 6 lb out of the handicap.

14:00 Lingfield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f - 10 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
11 1st (11) (12/1 -41%) Glance At Me	12 12/1(-41%)	(11) Glance At Me 12/1, Improved second upped to 20.5f on handicap debut/reappearance at Huntingdon in November. Has failed to build on that since, though, and she now has a bit to prove.
6 2nd (6) (3/1 +67%) Iskar D'airy	3 3/1(+67%)	(6) Iskar D'airy 3/1, French bumper winner who caught the eye on his hurdling debut at Kempton last spring. However, it would be something of an understatement to say that he has subsequently failed to build on that.
2 3rd (2) (4/1 +47%) Godot	4 4/1(+47%)	(2) Godot 4/1, Fair bumper performer who was placed on his first two hurdles starts but has failed to make an impact switched to handicaps the last twice.
5 4th (5) (8/1 -33%) Begin The Luck	8 8/1(-33%)	(5) Begin The Luck 8/1, Has drawn a blank since his 2 wins in spring 2021 but was knocking firmly on the door with 3 successive runner-up efforts in November/December. Form has dipped the last twice, though, and likely to find a few too good.
10 5th (10) (4/1 -20%) Hill Station	4 4/1(-20%)	(10) Hill Station 4/1, Gambled on and all set to make a winning hurdles bow when coming down at the last at Newton Abbot last summer. Not disgraced on handicap debut in this sphere in October and wasn't beaten far on the Flat recently, so there are certainly grounds for optimism.
4 6th (4) (12/1 -20%) Mr Jack	12 12/1(-20%)	(4) Mr Jack 12/1, Four-time winner during 2020/21 campaign but generally below par last season and it's been a similar story so far this time round. Needs to bounce back on his first run following a wind op.
8 7th (8) (66/1 +0%) Pak Army	66 66/1(+0%)	(8) Pak Army 66/1, Modest maiden hurdler in Ireland and hasn't fared any better in a handful of appearances for present yard.
1 8th (1) (33/1 +0%) What Will Be	33 33/1(+0%)	(1) What Will Be 33/1, Juvenile hurdle winner in 2019 and also successful on the Flat in 2020. However, he hasn't shown much in 3 starts since returning from a lengthy absence in November.
3 \|PU\| (3) (5.5/1 -100%) Stanley Pincombe	5.5 5.5/1(-100%)	(3) Stanley Pincombe 5.5/1, Hasn't made much of an impact switched to fences this season (ran out at Taunton last time) but has to be of interest back hurdling for in-form yard, having scored off 5 lb lower in this sphere last spring. Cheekpieces added.
9 \|PU\| (9) (16/1 -100%) Hello Bob	16 16/1(-100%)	(9) Hello Bob 16/1, Uttoxeter handicap winner back in summer 2020 but hasn't fully fired since returning from an 18-month absence last May and there's no real reason to anticipate a revival here.

LTO Selection:

14:00 Lingfield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 16f Race Class Flow

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

14:15 Ayr Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
8 1st (8) (10/1 +38%) Ardera Cross	10 10/1(+38%)	(8) Ardera Cross 10/1, Six-time C&D winner who returned to form when narrowly outpointed by Lisloran here in November. Well held all 3 subsequent starts, though, and this 12-y-o is opposable, for all that he's slipping down the weights.
5 2nd (5) (4.5/1 +25%) Storm Tiger	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(5) Storm Tiger 4.5/1, Winless following 7 attempts over hurdles but caught the eye when fifth in a 16-runner handicap on return at Wetherby (19.7f, soft) where he put in good late work having been left with plenty to do. Successful sole start between the flags and very much of interest on this chase debut.
4 3rd (4) (4/1 +0%) Lisloran	4 4/1(+0%)	(4) Lisloran 4/1, Back-to-back C&D winner in November/December and perhaps found the step up to 25.2f on deep ground too much of a test at Catterick last time. Still, he's now on what looks a tough mark (8 lb higher than for his latest success) and will probably find this a shade too competitive.
1 4th (1) (4.5/1 -13%) Operation Overlord	4.5 4.5/1(-13%)	(1) Operation Overlord 4.5/1, Made winning handicap debut over hurdles here in November 2021. Showed more than on return/chase debut when second in a 4-runner handicap chase back here (16.5f, heavy) last month but this fragile sort will need to up his game in order to make it third time lucky over fences.
9 5th (9) (8/1 -33%) Broomfields Kan	8 8/1(-33%)	(9) Broomfields Kan 8/1, Winner between the flags and posted one of his better efforts in this sphere when third in a 10-runner handicap here (16.5f, heavy) last month. Moving back up in trip looks a good move but record stands at 0-16 under Rules.
6 6th (6) (6.5/1 +13%) Sputnik	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(6) Sputnik 6.5/1, Off the mark over fences at Hexham last spring and had bit in hand when making a winning reappearance over this C&D in October. Beaten over 18 lengths when third to Lisloran back here last time but now 10 lb better off with that rival and he's not without hope.
2 \|PU\| (2) (9/1 -20%) Broadway Joe	9 9/1(-20%)	(2) Broadway Joe 9/1, Immediate improvement switched to fences last term, winner of his first 3 starts in this sphere. Good start to this season when third off 5 lb higher at Kelso but backward steps since and needs to get back on track following another wind op with cheekpieces enlisted here.
3 \|PU\| (3) (10/1 -54%) Deep Charm	10 10/1(-54%)	(3) Deep Charm 10/1, Improved sent chasing last term, runner-up in handicaps at Kelso either side of winning one off this mark at Hexham. Bettered low-key reappearance effort when third of 10 back at Kelso (21.6f, heavy) last time and he should have a part to play.
7 \|PU\| (7) (12/1 +40%) The Electrician	12 12/1(+40%)	(7) The Electrician 12/1, Modest maiden over hurdles but got his head in front at the second attempt in this sphere at Hexham (2½m, soft) last May. However, safely held in C&D handicaps won by Lisloran both starts this season and likely to come up short once again.

14:30 Lingfield Novices Hurdle (Class 4) 16f - 12 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
6 1st (6) (4/1 +60%) Kayf Legend	4 4/1(+60%)	(6) Kayf Legend 4/1, Made a winning bumper debut at Stratford in October but only sixth of 12 on his hurdles debut at Taunton (2m) in December. Should still do better.
10 2nd (10) (1.75/1 +13%) Kansas Du Berlais	1.75 1.75/1(+13%)	(10) Kansas Du Berlais 1.75/1, Promising fourth in listed newcomers race at Auteuil on hurdling debut for David Cottin but tongue strap left off for his new yard when odds-on fourth at Sandown in December. Since had a wind op and he's well worth another chance with headgear back on too. Player.
5 3rd (5) (3.33/1 +0%) I Hope Star	3.33 3.33/1(+0%)	(5) I Hope Star 3.33/1, Fair hurdler. 22/1, good second of 7 in novice over C&D (good to soft) 14 days ago. Holds solid claims.
8 4th (8) (6/1 +0%) Polyphonic	6 6/1(+0%)	(8) Polyphonic 6/1, Fairly useful 11f winner on Flat and sold from Karl Burke 42,000 gns in October. Hood on when bolting up at Fontwell (17.7f) but only fifth of 7 in juvenile at Huntingdon (15.8f) 32 days ago. Shouldn't be written off.
7 5th (7) (20/1 -150%) Tellmesomethingood	20 20/1(-150%)	(7) Tellmesomethingood 20/1, 11/1, hinted at promise when fourth of 7 in novice hurdle at Kempton (16f, soft) on NH debut 99 days ago. May well do better.
12 6th (12) (40/1 -82%) State Legend	40 40/1(-82%)	(12) State Legend 40/1, Fairly useful 1m4f Flat winner for James Ferguson. Off 6 months before fading seventh of 14 on his hurdling debut at Taunton so should step forward here.
4 7th (4) (14/1 -40%) Happy Boy	14 14/1(-40%)	(4) Happy Boy 14/1, 4/1, off 11 months before encouraging fifth of 8 in bumper at Lingfield (16f, standard) 71 days ago. Makes hurdles debut and this Irish point third can do better.
2 8th (2) (28/1 -133%) Dickens	28 28/1(-133%)	(2) Dickens 28/1, Fairly useful dual Flat winner. However, had been well beaten on both starts in 2022 (hooded second one) and was too free sent hurdling when well held at Wetherby in November. Should improve.
1 9th (1) (150/1 +0%) Birdman Bob	150 150/1(+0%)	(1) Birdman Bob 150/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Pulled up in novice hurdle (80/1) at Fontwell (19.2f, soft) 16 days ago. Has lots to find on form.
9 10th (9) (22/1 +33%) Jacks Profit	22 22/1(+33%)	(9) Jacks Profit 22/1, Half-brother to Kubali (2¼m-2½m jumps winner abroad, by Approve). Fair handicapper on Flat (stays 1½m), again ran creditably last time. Stamina no issue now hurdling.
3 11th (3) (300/1 -100%) Dr Lockdown	300 300/1(-100%)	(3) Dr Lockdown 300/1, Last of 8 in novice hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, good to soft, 50/1) on NH debut 15 days ago.
11 12th (11) (33/1 -32%) Loudspeaker	33 33/1(-32%)	(11) Loudspeaker 33/1, Fair maiden on Flat (stays 1½m) and sold from Michael Bell 50,000 gns in July. Brings potetntial but off 8 months and market can guide on his hurdling bow.

14:45 Ayr Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f - 9 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
8 1st (8) (3.5/1 +65%) Langdale Lane	3.5 3.5/1(+65%)	(8) Langdale Lane 3.5/1, Just modest in bumpers but took a step forward from hurdling debut when fourth (fair form) in a 2m course maiden in January. Not quite in same form at Navan subsequently though, and looks vulnerable again.
6 2nd (6) (3.33/1 -67%) Halondo	3.33 3.33/1(-67%)	(6) Halondo 3.33/1, Fair in bumpers and going the right way over hurdles, sticking to his task when runner-up in 2m course maiden 43 days ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time and likely to progress further now stepping up in trip.
7 3rd (7) (6.5/1 +7%) Haveanothergoflo	6.5 6.5/1(+7%)	(7) Haveanothergoflo 6.5/1, Successful on sole outing in Irish points but was held back by his jumping on Rules debut at Bangor back in November. Should improve.
5 4th (5) (2.5/1 +0%) Had To Be Hugo	2.5 2.5/1(+0%)	(5) Had To Be Hugo 2.5/1, Runner-up sole outing in points and has made an encouraging start under Rules, placed in a Newcastle bumper and 2½m novice hurdle. Open to improvement and holds leading claims.
1 5th (1) (10/1 +29%) Bryden	10 10/1(+29%)	(1) Bryden 10/1, €35,000 3-y-o, Getaway gelding. Dam, maiden on Flat, raced once over hurdles. Pulled up sole outing in Irish points (Nov 2021) but still worth a market check on Rules debut.
2 6th (2) (4.5/1 +44%) Cuzco Du Mathan	4.5 4.5/1(+44%)	(2) Cuzco Du Mathan 4.5/1, Fairly useful form over hurdles in France on first 2 starts, runner-up in listed newcomers race at Auteuil. Campaigned over fences since, unseating early when last seen in June. First run for yard after leaving A. Chaille-Chaille. Interesting contender.
9 7th (9) (100/1 -52%) Sea Prince	100 100/1(-52%)	(9) Sea Prince 100/1, Unpromising in points and safely held in 2 bumpers under Rules.
4 \|PU\| (4) (150/1 +0%) Guinness Village	150 150/1(+0%)	(4) Guinness Village 150/1, Placed on second of 2 starts in points but well held both starts over hurdles 14 months apart.
10 \|PU\| (10) (300/1 -20%) Alien Encounter	300 300/1(-20%)	(10) Alien Encounter 300/1, Well held in 2 bumpers so easily passed over making hurdling debut after 15 months off.

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (2/1 -23%) Scipion	2 2/1(-23%)	(1) Scipion 2/1, Runner-up both starts in points and this fairly useful winning hurdler made a promising chase debut when third of 5 in handicap at Uttoxeter (22.5f) in October. Off 3 months after and a shade disappointing at Sandown. Back up in trip with cheekpieces on.
4 2nd (4) (2.25/1 +44%) Seigneur Des As	2.25 2.25/1(+44%)	(4) Seigneur Des As 2.25/1, Just fair form over fences in France and not a great deal of encouragement to be gleaned from 4 outings for this stable. 6 lb out of the handicap.
2 3rd (2) (3.5/1 -5%) Hudson De Grugy	3.5 3.5/1(-5%)	(2) Hudson De Grugy 3.5/1, Useful 4-time hurdle winner for this yard. A little below that level in 2 chase outings in November and jumped poorly at Kempton Boxing Day. Needs to do better with a visor now enlisted.
3 \|PU\| (3) (3.5/1 -17%) Not What It Seems	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(3) Not What It Seems 3.5/1, Completed hat-trick of novice hurdle successes at Wetherby on return in October. Solid efforts both starts since, including when third of 6 on chasing debut at same course last time. More to come over fences and massive player of he stays this far.

5 (5) (3.33/1 +17%) Travail D'Orfevre	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(5) Travail D'Orfevre 3.33/1, Opened his hurdles account at Kelso last April. Posted good third at same course on chase debut in October and got back on track after breathing surgery when second of 9 in handicap chase at this C&D (soft, 9/1) 13 days ago. Considered.
2 1st (2) (1.75/1 +61%) Douglas Talking	1.75 1.75/1(+61%)	(2) Douglas Talking 1.75/1, C&D winner who wasn't ridden so positively as usual after 6 months off when seventh of 8 in handicap chase at this C&D (soft, 11/2) 108 days ago. Since had a wind op and it would come as no surprise to see him bounce back.
3 2nd (3) (1.62/1 +41%) Champ De Gane	1.62 1.62/1(+41%)	(3) Champ De Gane 1.62/1, Irish raider who was capable of fair form over hurdles and posted a good second of 5 in handicap chase at this C&D (heavy) 36 days ago. One for the shortlist eased 1 lb.
4 3rd (4) (3/1 -60%) Wheelbahri	3 3/1(-60%)	(4) Wheelbahri 3/1, Enjoyed a terrific 2021/22 season, completing a 4-timer in handicaps. Thriving again in current campaign, winning a pair of Kelso handicaps (both 17.1f), and is a big player here.
1 4th (1) (11/1 +21%) Benefit Run	11 11/1(+21%)	(1) Benefit Run 11/1, Ran one of his lesser races when fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Naas (16f, soft) 37 days ago. Nineteen runs since last win in 2020.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 1st (5) (3/1 -20%) Moviddy	3 3/1(-20%)	(5) Moviddy 3/1, Irish point winner at second attempt and showed plenty to work on when third in 14-runner novice at Exeter (18.5f) in November, not knocked about. Entitled to do better.
2 2nd (2) (8.5/1 +23%) Finescope	8.5 8.5/1(+23%)	(2) Finescope 8.5/1, Minor promise in trio of bumpers spread over 9 months so improvement needed now switching to hurdles.
7 3rd (7) (3/1 -9%) Police Academy	3 3/1(-9%)	(7) Police Academy 3/1, Won sole start in Irish points and again shaped with some promise when fourth of 11 in novice hurdle at Huntingdon (20.7f, good to soft) 32 days ago. Remains with potential.
3 4th (3) (1.38/1 +0%) Helenn Clermont	1.38 1.38/1(+0%)	(3) Helenn Clermont 1.38/1, Placed completed start in Irish points (Nov 2021) and still looked rough around the edges when third in 6-runner novice at Ffos Las (15.8f, heavy) on Rules debut 40 days ago. Tongue tie goes on and may improve over this longer trip.
4 5th (4) (66/1 +47%) Miss Get The Veuve	66 66/1(+47%)	(4) Miss Get The Veuve 66/1, Just poor form in 2 bumpers. Lot more required now hurdling up in trip.
1 6th (1) (200/1 +20%) Cassowary	200 200/1(+20%)	(1) Cassowary 200/1, Well held in bumpers 9 months apart. Cheekpieces applied for hurdle debut.
6 7th (6) (150/1 -20%) Nowyouvebinandunit	150 150/1(-20%)	(6) Nowyouvebinandunit 150/1, Made an inauspicious start to career when trying to refuse and unseating second in a Worcester maiden hurdle last May.
8 \|PU\| (8) (11/1 +78%) Stop This Train	11 11/1(+78%)	(8) Stop This Train 11/1, Ask mare. Dam unraced. Placed once from 4 starts in points, sixth of 7 finishers last time (May 2022).

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (4/1 -100%) Apple Away	4 4/1(-100%)	(1) Apple Away 4/1, Won mares' novice on Rules debut at Bangor and she hasn't done much wrong in 3 subsequent starts, just touched off upped to this trip on handicap bow at Haydock (soft) last time. 2 lb nudge fair enough and she should be in the mix.
8 2nd (8) (2.75/1 +17%) Jet Legs	2.75 2.75/1(+17%)	(8) Jet Legs 2.75/1, Belatedly built on promise shown in novice company when chasing home an in-form rival upped to 3m at Wetherby (soft) recently. Raised 3 lb for that but this 6-y-o probably has more to offer as a stayer and he needs considering.
10 3rd (10) (7/1 +42%) Nights In Venice	7 7/1(+42%)	(10) Nights In Venice 7/1, Appeared to take a step forward on second run in handicap company when fourth of 12 over 22.7f at Kelso. However, he was well held at Wetherby 2 weeks later and the percentage call is to look elsewhere.
4 4th (4) (6/1 +8%) Leostar	6 6/1(+8%)	(4) Leostar 6/1, Dual hurdles winner in 2020/21 and shaped well following 19 months off when third on Kelso chase debut in November. Poor next time but latest effort back hurding (again at Kelso) was more like it and he's of strong interest here off an attractive mark.
11 5th (11) (40/1 +0%) Tomorrow's Angel	40 40/1(+0%)	(11) Tomorrow's Angel 40/1, Sole success over hurdles was gained almost 2 years ago and she's hard to warm to based on recent evidence.
5 6th (5) (28/1 -12%) Firth Of Forth	28 28/1(-12%)	(5) Firth Of Forth 28/1, Hit the crossbar twice in maiden hurdles early last year but it was hard to draw any positives from his reappearance display at Kelso and
9 7th (9) (80/1 -100%) Skiddaw Tara	80 80/1(-100%)	(9) Skiddaw Tara 80/1, Best effort since winning a 3m novice for Nicky Richards in 2020 when second in a 3-runner Catterick handicap on stable debut last February. Possibly needed the run on return there in November but opposable in any case.
2 \|PU\| (2) (4/1 +27%) Hoganville	4 4/1(+27%)	(2) Hoganville 4/1, Without a win for Paul Nolan in Ireland but much-improved for new yard this season, winning 3 on the bounce (including over this C&D) prior to finishing third off this mark at Wetherby (3m, soft). Solid each-way claims.
7 \|PU\| (7) (9/1 -20%) Lady Bowes	9 9/1(-20%)	(7) Lady Bowes 9/1, Fair bumper/maiden hurdle winner who has finished in the money on his last 3 completed starts, finding just one too good at Catterick (25.3f, heavy) last month. Remains on a fair mark up 2 lb and ought to make her presence felt.
6 \|PU\| (6) (50/1 -213%) Colonel Manderson	50 50/1(-213%)	(6) Colonel Manderson 50/1, Won 3m Southwell handicap hurdle last winter and runner-up on next 2 outings. However, he has failed to fire both starts so far this season and is probably best watched starting out for new connections here.

Looked rusty pitched into the Welsh National on his return and it would be no surprise to see him back on the up here.
2 3rd (2) (8/1 -7%) Checkitout	8 8/1(-7%)	(2) Checkitout 8/1, Ended last season on a downer and both starts back this term hardly suggests he's a winner in waiting. Eased further 5 lb and a visor replaces cheekpieces.

9 6th (9) (7/1 +83%) Wotsmyname	7 7/1(+83%)	(9) Wotsmyname 7/1, Still a maiden and he arrives out of sorts too over hurdles. It's easy to look elsewhere on his first go over fences.
8 7th (8) (9/1 +55%) Alone No More	9 9/1(+55%)	(8) Alone No More 9/1, Rules form is pretty uninspiring and he came in a below-par fifth on yard debut in 25f Catterick handicap last month. Others appeal more.

1 6th (1) (7/1 -155%) Representing Bob	7 7/1(-155%)	(1) Representing Bob 7/1, Won first 3 starts over fences and even better form when runner-up next 3 starts. Blnikered when pulled up at Market Rasen last time now and reverts to hurdles in first-time cheekpieces.
9 7th (9) (50/1 +50%) Shirocco's Delight	50 50/1(+50%)	(9) Shirocco's Delight 50/1, Modest hurdler in Ireland but not at that level for current yard. Fell 1st at Fontwell last time so has something to prove.

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.

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.
