2 8th (2) (250/1 -25%) Coilrock	250 250/1(-25%)	(2) Coilrock 250/1, Off the mark in Irish points at fourth attempt last spring but it's hard to draw any positives from his two starts under Rules at Uttoxeter and over C&D this year.

Dam unraced half-sister to bumper winner/smart hurdler (stays 3m) Younevercall out of fairly useful 17f-3m hurdle winner Afarka. Decisive winner on debut in a bumper at Ffos Las in December 2021.

9 2nd (9) (1.25/1 +44%) Saladam	1.25 1.25/1(+44%)	(9) Saladam 1.25/1, Runner-up sole start in Irish points and made a promising start over hurdles at Uttoxeter, doing well to sustain his run having made plenty of ground to get into contention. in December. Long odds-on to go one place better at Ayr but he fluffed his lines.
8 3rd (8) (3/1 +14%) Hold Up La Colmine	3 3/1(+14%)	(8) Hold Up La Colmine 3/1, Irish point winner who has made the frame all 3 starts in maiden hurdles this season, though a beaten favourite on last 2 outings. Should be thereabouts.
5 4th (5) (33/1 -106%) Breakdance Kid	33 33/1(-106%)	(5) Breakdance Kid 33/1, Unpromising in points but showed a lot more than he did on hurdles debut when third of 6 at Wetherby 12 days ago.

12 \|F\| (12) (300/1 -100%) Not In Kansas	300 300/1(-100%)	(12) Not In Kansas 300/1, :Mid-field in Hexham bumper last term but heavy defeats both starts over obstacles.

Form	Odds	Runs
3 1st (3) (1.88/1 +6%) Doyannie	1.88 1.88/1(+6%)	(3) Doyannie 1.88/1, Left yard debut effort well behind when creditable length second of 8 to Shaw's Cross in handicap chase over C&D (good to soft) 28 days ago. Just 1 lb higher now and holds strong claims.
1 2nd (1) (3.5/1 -27%) The Cathal Don	3.5 3.5/1(-27%)	(1) The Cathal Don 3.5/1, Winner of a Tipperary maiden chase for Henry de Bromhead but little impact in 6 starts for Seamus Mullins and plenty to prove back from 10-month absence for new yard here.
2 3rd (2) (4/1 -14%) Line Of Descent	4 4/1(-14%)	(2) Line Of Descent 4/1, Has taken well to fences, placed all 4 starts, latest when third of 7 in handicap chase at Leicester (15.9f, good to firm) 11 days ago, unsuited by emphasis on speed. Should give another good account.
5 4th (5) (2.5/1 +9%) Shaw's Cross	2.5 2.5/1(+9%)	(5) Shaw's Cross 2.5/1, Career best when winning 8-runner handicap chase over C&D (good to soft, 9/4) 28 days ago by a length from Doyannie. Remains fairly treated and must enter calculations.
6 5th (6) (33/1 +0%) Clondaw Robin	33 33/1(+0%)	(6) Clondaw Robin 33/1, Yet to score over fences and is hard to recommend from 9 lb out of the handicap.
7 6th (7) (100/1 -25%) Kilfords Queen	100 100/1(-25%)	(7) Kilfords Queen 100/1, Third on sole start between the flags but efforts under Rules to date have been devoid of promise, including on chase debut at Southwell in November. 15 lb out of the handicap.
4 7th (4) (20/1 -11%) Ben Brody	20 20/1(-11%)	(4) Ben Brody 20/1, Winning hurdler/chaser who failed to come on for return switched back to fences at Hereford last time. Potentially on a good mark if finding his form again, though.

14:15 Ayr Handicap Chase (Class 3) 16f - 4 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
4 1st (4) (2.75/1 +39%) One Fine Man	2.75 2.75/1(+39%)	(4) One Fine Man 2.75/1, Landed 2¾m Cartmel maiden hurdle in 2021 and good start over fences following 14 months off when going close at Sedgefield (21f) in January. Coped well with drop to 2m when scoring at Carlisle since but good more will be needed here from 5 lb out of the handicap.
2 2nd (2) (1.75/1 -27%) Richmond Lake	1.75 1.75/1(-27%)	(2) Richmond Lake 1.75/1, Successful twice from half-a-dozen starts over hurdles and duly left chase debut form well behind when landing a 5-runner Wetherby handicap (15.2f). Appeared to have plenty left up his sleeve that day and it's unlikely that a 6 lb rise will be enough to stop him.
3 3rd (3) (14/1 +22%) Peaceful Sunday	14 14/1(+22%)	(3) Peaceful Sunday 14/1, Fairyhouse maiden hurdle winner last February but done little wright since, failing to complete on 4 of his 6 subsequent starts, including both attempts over fences (unseated on each occasion). Hopes pinned on first-time cheekpieces working the oracle here.
1 4th (1) (1.62/1 -30%) Bass Rock	1.62 1.62/1(-30%)	(1) Bass Rock 1.62/1, Useful hurdler who improved to make a winning chase debut in good style at Carlisle (2m) on return in November. Matched that when only narrowly denied in 19f Wetherby novice handicap since and remains open to improvement in this sphere.

Form	Odds	Runs
11 1st (11) (14/1 +30%) Hilnamix	14 14/1(+30%)	(11) Hilnamix 14/1, Winning pointer but hasn't offered a great deal in a trio of novice hurdles at shorter trips and remains to be seen if improvement is forthcoming now stepped up in trip on handicap bow. Visored for first time.
3 2nd (3) (10/1 +17%) One For The Wall	10 10/1(+17%)	(3) One For The Wall 10/1, Fair maiden who went wrong way from chasing debut when pulled up at Ffos Las (23.8f) early last month and no upturn for return to hurdles latest.
4 3rd (4) (4/1 -45%) Abingworth	4 4/1(-45%)	(4) Abingworth 4/1, Posted best effort in this sphere when close third of 13 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Races off same mark and has to be taken seriously.
9 4th (9) (12/1 +45%) Hilltown	12 12/1(+45%)	(9) Hilltown 12/1, Point bumper winner who ran respectably in novice at this course in January. However, well held on handicap debut since and makes limited appeal.
7 5th (7) (22/1 -120%) Mr Jack	22 22/1(-120%)	(7) Mr Jack 22/1, 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. Becoming well treated at least.
1 6th (1) (5/1 +55%) Concrete King	5 5/1(+55%)	(1) Concrete King 5/1, Multiple Irish point winner who has posted respectable efforts both starts this term, latest when fourth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f, soft) 29 days ago. Yet to score under Rules, however, and others more appealing.
12 7th (12) (7.5/1 +0%) Hesbehindyou	7.5 7.5/1(+0%)	(12) Hesbehindyou 7.5/1, Returned to form, in first-time cheekpieces, when third of 8 in handicap hurdle (6/1) at Lingfield (19.5f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Will appreciate this stiffer test of stamina and is one for the shortlist.
6 8th (6) (18/1 -50%) The Tin Miner	18 18/1(-50%)	(6) The Tin Miner 18/1, Not scored since 2020 and has failed to complete the last twice. Plenty to prove at present.
5 \|PU\| (5) (2/1 +11%) San Pedro	2 2/1(+11%)	(5) San Pedro 2/1, Aided by first-time cheekpieces when opening account over hurdles in 12-runner handicap at Lingfield (23f, good) 7 days ago, easily. 7 lb penalty may not prevent the follow up.
8 \|PU\| (8) (28/1 -12%) El Hageb Rose	28 28/1(-12%)	(8) El Hageb Rose 28/1, Very lightly raced for Gary Moore and caused a major upset starting out for Paddy Butler when landing 7-runner handicap over C&D in November. Back to similar level when fourth of 5 here latest but needs to back that up now.
2 \|PU\| (2) (40/1 -21%) Huntsmans Jog	40 40/1(-21%)	(2) Huntsmans Jog 40/1, Placed several times over fences last term but below par in 2 chases for Fergal O'Brien on his return to action in the autumn and no signs of a revival in a couple of outings for new yard.
10 \|PU\| (10) (66/1 -371%) Darksideoftarnside	66 66/1(-371%)	(10) Darksideoftarnside 66/1, Chepstow winner in November 2020 but showed nothing on return from long absence at Wincanton earlier this month.
13 \|PU\| (13) (100/1 -257%) Shirocco's Delight	100 100/1(-257%)	(13) Shirocco's Delight 100/1, Modest hurdler in Ireland but not at that level for current yard. Remains hard to recommend.

4 1st (4) (3.33/1 +17%) Fortescue Wood	3.33 3.33/1(+17%)	(4) Fortescue Wood 3.33/1, Bumper winner who made a successful debut over hurdles in a first-time hood and tongue strap after 20 months off in 7-runner novice over C&D in November, Settled better and improved form when third under a penalty at Kelso.
1 2nd (1) (2.75/1 -38%) Benassi	2.75 2.75/1(-38%)	(1) Benassi 2.75/1, Made the frame all completed starts in Irish points and confirmed promise of his hurdles debut when landing 13-runner maiden at Uttoxeter a month ago. Likely there's plenty more to come.
2 3rd (2) (6/1 +29%) Bingoo	6 6/1(+29%)	(2) Bingoo 6/1, Progressive form in bumpers, opening his account at the third attempt at Hexham in April. Followed up in cosy fashion on hurdling debut there (16.2f, heavy) 7 months later but beaten before stamina came into play over 19.3f at Catterick last month.
5 4th (5) (1.62/1 +14%) L Anamour	1.62 1.62/1(+14%)	(5) L Anamour 1.62/1, €100,000 3-y-o who produced a promising first effort when fourth of 21 in 2m Punchestown maiden hurdle in November. Found plenty for pressure when successful over C&D last month and there's more to come.
7 5th (7) (200/1 -203%) Hombre De Guerra	200 200/1(-203%)	(7) Hombre De Guerra 200/1, Soldier of Fortune gelding. Dam (h113) 17f hurdle winner, also 11.5f winner on Flat. Backed at long odds but too free to last out in a course bumper this month.
11 6th (11) (150/1 -200%) Maisie Too	150 150/1(-200%)	(11) Maisie Too 150/1, Modest form in a quartet of bumpers. Hood left off for hurdles debut and didn't show a great at Sedgefield.
9 7th (9) (200/1 -33%) It's Dan	200 200/1(-33%)	(9) It's Dan 200/1, Vendangeur gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler Power of Pause and fair 17f chase winner The Big Jetaway. Tongue tied and in need of the experience in a Wetherby bumper 3 weeks ago.
10 8th (10) (300/1 -100%) Sea Prince	300 300/1(-100%)	(10) Sea Prince 300/1, Unpromising in points and safely held in 3 starts under Rules.
6 9th (6) (5/1 +9%) Hero	5 5/1(+9%)	(6) Hero 5/1, Made a promising debut when runner-up in bumper at Chepstow in March, clear of the rest behind one who has also won over hurdles since. Must have been amiss given how badly he checked out on hurdles debut 8 months later.
8 10th (8) (125/1 -25%) I Doubt That	125 125/1(-25%)	(8) I Doubt That 125/1, Well held both starts over hurdles in Ireland during first part of 2022 but a Flat winner, albeit at a modest level, for Jimmy Fox during the summer. Moved yards again since.

2 2nd (2) (8.5/1 -42%) Fawsley Spirit	8.5 8.5/1(-42%)	(2) Fawsley Spirit 8.5/1, Fairly useful winner at 23f over hurdles but below form sixth of 11 in handicap chase (12/1) at Taunton (23f, good to soft) 59 days ago. Cheekpieces on for 1st time now.
1 3rd (1) (5/1 +17%) Tommie Beau	5 5/1(+17%)	(1) Tommie Beau 5/1, C&D winner but tried blinkered when below form sixth of 11 in handicap chase at Exeter (30.7f, soft) 87 days ago. Headgear quickly dispensed with so could bounce back.
6 4th (6) (3.5/1 +30%) Goudhurst Star	3.5 3.5/1(+30%)	(6) Goudhurst Star 3.5/1, Fair winner at 19f over hurdles but yet to show that form in two runs over fences, cheekpieces on when seventh of 13 in handicap chase at Chepstow (19.4f, good) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip with more needed.
5 5th (5) (40/1 -60%) Special Acceptance	40 40/1(-60%)	(5) Special Acceptance 40/1, Off nearly 2 years before pulled up in handicap chase over C&D 28 days ago. This C&D winner has something to prove now.
7 6th (7) (16/1 -33%) Mister Tickle	16 16/1(-33%)	(7) Mister Tickle 16/1, Completed a hat-trick over fences during second half of 2021 but he is hard to recommend based on what he's shown in 5 starts so far this season. Others appeal more.
3 \|U\| (3) (2.25/1 +0%) Blame The Game	2.25 2.25/1(+0%)	(3) Blame The Game 2.25/1, C&D winner who comes on here on the back of a creditable second of 11 in handicap chase here (28.5f, soft) 56 days ago. Considered.

Form	Odds	Runs
10 1st (10) (6.5/1 +13%) Ardera Cross	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(10) Ardera Cross 6.5/1, Not getting any younger but proved that the first still burns bright when notching seventh success here recently. Remains on a good mark up 4 lb and while a reproduction of that cannot be guaranteed given his up-and-down profile, he will have every chance if in a similar mood.
7 2nd (7) (2.75/1 +45%) Where's Hector	2.75 2.75/1(+45%)	(7) Where's Hector 2.75/1, Consistent over hurdles last season and by no means disgraced starting out over fences in a first-time hood (retained) when third at Catterick (19.2f), for all that he was ultimately flattered by his finishing position. Others preferred for win purposes.
9 3rd (9) (7/1 +30%) The Jad Factor	7 7/1(+30%)	(9) The Jad Factor 7/1, Winner over hurdles at Newcastle last term and was in the process of running well when falling in handicap hurdle here early last month. Needs to raise his game now switched to fences.
3 4th (3) (40/1 -150%) Road Warrior	40 40/1(-150%)	(3) Road Warrior 40/1, Consistent last term but has shown little spark since returning to action in October and needs to bounce back in a major way following a second wind op. Cheekpieces refitted.
2 5th (2) (3.33/1 +5%) Bobby Bow	3.33 3.33/1(+5%)	(2) Bobby Bow 3.33/1, Winning Irish pointer who made a successful Rules debut over hurdles at Hexham in November 2020. Shaped very well when second on chasing bow following a lengthy absence at Ffos Las (20.9f) and likely to make a bold bid to go one better here.
8 \|F\| (8) (20/1 +0%) Deep Charm	20 20/1(+0%)	(8) Deep Charm 20/1, Improved sent chasing last term, runner-up in handicaps at Kelso either side of winning one at Hexham. However, pulled up on 2 of his 3 starts since returning to action in December and now has a fair bit to prove.
1 \|PU\| (1) (4/1 +20%) Rowdy Rustler	4 4/1(+20%)	(1) Rowdy Rustler 4/1, Signed off last season by landing a Newcastle maiden hurdle and, following a second wind op, this former point winner made a promising start over fences when runner-up at the same course in November. Conditions were testing when well beaten here since and probably worth another chance.
5 \|PU\| (5) (8.5/1 +23%) Ripper Roo	8.5 8.5/1(+23%)	(5) Ripper Roo 8.5/1, Landed the odds in a maiden hurdle at Market Rasen last spring but no show 2 starts switched to fences since returning from a lengthy layoff. Now tried in cheekpieces.

5 2nd (5) (1.75/1 +47%) Fortuna Ligna	1.75 1.75/1(+47%)	(5) Fortuna Ligna 1.75/1, Fair form in bumpers and she has gone with promise on both runs over hurdles, fourth of 10 in novice at Wincanton (21.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago. Likely to improve on her handicap bow. Shortlisted.
6 3rd (6) (8/1 +11%) Brown Bullet	8 8/1(+11%)	(6) Brown Bullet 8/1, Course winner but tongue strap on for 1st time when only seventh of 8 in handicap hurdle here (15.9f, soft) 56 days ago. Has since had a wind op and not ruled out off a handy-looking mark.
3 4th (3) (6.5/1 -44%) Symphorine	6.5 6.5/1(-44%)	(3) Symphorine 6.5/1, Lightly-raced maiden who shaped encouragingly when fourth of 12 in novice hurdle at Exeter (16.7f, soft) 26 days ago. More to offer now back up in trip for her handicap debut. In the mix.

7 6th (7) (40/1 -43%) Yesnosorry	40 40/1(-43%)	(7) Yesnosorry 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 100/1, sixth of 8 in novice hurdle here (15.9f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Lots more needed now upped in distance and going handicapping.

1 2nd (1) (7/1 -17%) Foster'sisland	7 7/1(-17%)	(1) Foster'sisland 7/1, C&D winner who arrives in good nick, mistakes late on when fifth of 8 in handicap hurdle at Wetherby (19.7f, good) 12 days ago. Merits consideration once more.

14 \|F\| (14) (2.5/1 +29%) So Many Roads	2.5 2.5/1(+29%)	(14) So Many Roads 2.5/1, Much improved when justifying suport on his handicap debut in 17-runner hurdle over C&D (heavy) 56 days ago. Up 5 lb but well on top at the finish and weighted to go in again.

5 13th (5) (66/1 -200%) Curious Times	66 66/1(-200%)	(5) Curious Times 66/1, Scored at Perth in September and best run since when third at Carlisle (17f). Made mistakes before fell 4th over fences at Musselburgh last time. Can bounce back returned to this sphere.
4 14th (4) (66/1 -100%) Gladiatorial	66 66/1(-100%)	(4) Gladiatorial 66/1, Fairly useful Irish hurdler who came close to opening his account over fences at Kelso in October. Below par since though, so he has a bit to prove now.

Others more appealing.
8 \|PU\| (8) (9/1 +10%) This Ones For Fred	9 9/1(+10%)	(8) This Ones For Fred 9/1, Fair Flat performer but well held all 3 hurdle starts, latest when fifth in Bangor maiden (16.7f) in September. May do better now attention switched to handicapping, though.

Form	Odds	Runs
9 1st (9) (3.33/1 +33%) Joanna I'm Fine	3.33 3.33/1(+33%)	(9) Joanna I'm Fine 3.33/1, Maiden who ran much better than previously in handicaps when third on return here (3m) in October. Filled the same spot in an 8-runner contest over 20.4f here recently and she's one to consider off the same mark.
5 2nd (5) (18/1 -50%) Reve De Niamh	18 18/1(-50%)	(5) Reve De Niamh 18/1, Runner-up in a Taunton bumper back last January (only outing for Fergal O'Brien) and again found just one too good on return/hurdles bow at Sedgefield. However, it's been all downhill since and it's probably best to look elsewhere.
12 3rd (12) (12/1 +33%) Howzat Hiris	12 12/1(+33%)	(12) Howzat Hiris 12/1, Surpassed previous exploits when third in a Wetherby handicap (3m) last March but has failed to build on that in handful of subsequent outings. Now tried in cheekpieces.

Failed to build on that upped in trip over C&D last time, though, and needs to get back on track.
3 5th (3) (4.5/1 +0%) Jessiemac	4.5 4.5/1(+0%)	(3) Jessiemac 4.5/1, Successful at Catterick last January and stepped up on this season's previous efforts when hitting the crossbar over C&D at the beginning of the month. Remains 2 lb below last winning mark and she has to enter calculations.
1 6th (1) (18/1 -177%) Lady Bowes	18 18/1(-177%)	(1) Lady Bowes 18/1, Fair bumper/maiden hurdle winner who found just one too good in a Catterick handicap on penultimate start. However, pulled up at Haydock and over this C&D either side of that, and she's probably worth taking on.
6 7th (6) (100/1 -150%) Gypsey's Secret	100 100/1(-150%)	(6) Gypsey's Secret 100/1, Showed a bit more spark when third in a Kelso novice back from a lengthy absence in December but subsequently pulled up on handicap debut over this C&D.
4 8th (4) (7/1 -17%) Atomic Angel	7 7/1(-17%)	(4) Atomic Angel 7/1, Dual hurdles winner last term who dispelled a poor effort over fences when scoring comfortably in this sphere at Catterick (25.3f) on penultimate start. Far from disgraced when fourth off this mark at Newcastle since and she's a live each-way contender.
8 9th (8) (33/1 -83%) Farne Island	33 33/1(-83%)	(8) Farne Island 33/1, No show in a bumper/3 starts over hurdles to date and big step forward needed now upped in trip for this handicap debut.
7 10th (7) (12/1 -50%) Follow That	12 12/1(-50%)	(7) Follow That 12/1, Runner-up in handicaps final 2 starts of 2020/21 campaign and encouraging fourth of 10 back from a layoff at Chepstow in November. Below par both subsequent appearances, though, and she needs to bounce back.
11 11th (11) (3.33/1 +58%) September Daisy	3.33 3.33/1(+58%)	(11) September Daisy 3.33/1, Not disgraced first 2 starts for her new yard this term but she failed to fire over 21.4f here last time. Stamina to prove over this new trip and, chances are, she'll find a few of these too strong.
10 \|PU\| (10) (16/1 -33%) Gale Force One	16 16/1(-33%)	(10) Gale Force One 16/1, No show in 3 novice hurdles in 2020/21 and will only be of interest now handicapping following a major absence if the market vibes are notably upbeat.

Dam, no show sole start in bumpers, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (best around 2m) Falcon Island.

1 8th (1) (18/1 -29%) Judicial Review	18 18/1(-29%)	(1) Judicial Review 18/1, Getaway gelding. Closely related to fair hurdler It Takes Time, and half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser Get Out The Gate. Runner-up on second of 2 starts in Irish points and justified strong support in 7-runner bumper at Sedgefield in December. Fair fourth under a penalty since.

2 1st (2) (1.5/1 +67%) The Thames Boatman	1.5 1.5/1(+67%)	(2) The Thames Boatman 1.5/1, Novice winner over 6f here in October. Last of 14 in handicap (11/1) at Nottingham (5f, soft). Off 124 days but represents a yard in reasonable order.
3 2nd (3) (3/1 +0%) Erosion Risk	3 3/1(+0%)	(3) Erosion Risk 3/1, Good second of 8 in novice event (2/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) 17 days ago, clear of rest. Expected to be bang there from what is a very fair mark back in a handicap.
5 3rd (5) (11/1 -214%) Wreck It Ryley	11 11/1(-214%)	(5) Wreck It Ryley 11/1, Career best when winning 7-runner handicap at Southwell (5f) 15 days ago, just holding on. Up 3 lb for that narrow win but represents yard going great guns.
7 4th (7) (33/1 -230%) Furnicoe	33 33/1(-230%)	(7) Furnicoe 33/1, 4¼ lengths fifth of 7 to Wreck It Ryley in handicap at Southwell (5f, 5/2) 15 days ago, failing to travel with much fluency.

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.
