(6) Love Your Work 1.25/1, 4-time course winner. First run since leaving Stef Keniry when good second of 12 in handicap at this course (8.1f, 6/1) 18 days ago. Worth a second look here for in-form yard.

7
7/1(+13%)
(1) Juan Les Pins 7/1, Respectable second of 6 in claimer at Lingfield (7f) 9 days ago, keeping on without threatening winner. Going through a good spell at present and not discounted back in a handicap.

14/1(-75%)
(3) Battered 14/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2017. 40/1, sixth of 9 in handicap here (8.1f) 23 days ago, possibly in need of first start on back of 9 months off. This should reveal more.

13:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) West Approach 1.5/1, Smart performer on his day but he ended last season below par in veterans' events at Newbury/Ascot. Only fourth of 5 on return in a Warwick hunter under this rider 11 days ago.

0.5
0.5/1(+25%)
(1) Alcala 0.5/1, Smart chaser at his peak who landed pair of hunter chases last spring. Not disgraced at Stratford when last seen in May and he's probably the one to be on in this match.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(3) Griffin Park 3/1, Elm Park colt who surpassed previous efforts when second of 12 in minor event at Lingfield (1m) 50 days ago, keeping on. Likely he has even more to offer and respected here.

5
5/1(+0%)
(8) Dark Enchantment 5/1, Twice-raced filly. Third of 9 in minor event at this C&D (5/1) 18 days ago, noted travelling with some promise until final 1f. Possible she'll come on for that run.

8.5
8.5/1(+23%)
(11) Soi Dao 8.5/1, Twilight Son filly promise when fifth of 11 in maiden at Lingfield (7f) on debut 9 days ago, faring best of those held up without being given a hard time. Likely improver.

(4) Jade Country 2.12/1, Promising type. 6/1, fifth of 11 in minor event at Lingfield (7f, AW) 30 days ago, keeping on without being unduly punished. Another entitled to do better still, particularly back at this trip.

(7) Volos 3/1, Thrice-raced gelding. 6/5, well below best when eighth of 11 in maiden at Chelmsford (7f) 19 days ago. Tongue tie reached for now and too soon to be writing him off on balance.

6th (9) (40/1 -21%) My Lovely Sylv
40
40/1(-21%)
(9) My Lovely Sylv 40/1, Equiano filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 5f winner Harleys Rocket and 2-y-o 5.3f winner Just Emma. Dam ran twice. Probably best watched with hood fitted for debut.
5
7th (5) (125/1 -56%) My Opinion
125
125/1(-56%)
(5) My Opinion 125/1, Pride of Dubai gelding. Half-brother to 6f winner Postino Volante. Dam maiden (stayed 6f). Rates a likely outsider on racecourse bow.

8th (10) (50/1 -25%) Secret Stripper
50
50/1(-25%)
(10) Secret Stripper 50/1, Once-raced filly. 66/1, eighth of 13 in minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f) on debut 38 days ago, held up and never a threat. Possibly one for low-grade handicaps later on.

400
400/1(-400%)
(2) Rogan's Fancy 400/1, Twice-raced gelding on Flat. 200/1, fifth of 6 in claimer at this course (8.1f) 9 days ago. Hard to fancy.

400
400/1(-300%)

13:30 Southwell Maiden (Class 5) 7f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(3) Press Your Luck 3.5/1, Dual 2m hurdles winner who got back to his best when second in 4-runner Fontwell handicap (19.2f) in October. Cheekpieces on and no impression in the Lanzarote latest but this is much easier.
1
2nd (1) (2/1 -23%) Champagne Court
2
2/1(-23%)
(1) Champagne Court 2/1, Useful chaser who built on a couple of solid placed efforts over timber to win his first race for over 2 years at Exeter in December. Another solid second back over fences latest and sure to go well.
4
3rd (4) (25/1 -39%) Antunes
25
25/1(-39%)
(4) Antunes 25/1, Wheels rather came off for Dan Skelton and while he's joined a yard in excellent form he has a lot to prove. Cheekpieces go on.
5
4th (5) (2.5/1 +29%) Red Royalist
2.5
2.5/1(+29%)
(5) Red Royalist 2.5/1, Back-to-back novice winner in 2019. Promising return from 15 months off at Taunton in December and having been eased 2 lb, he's well treated if able to build on that.
2
5th (2) (3.5/1 +0%) Ecco
3.5
3.5/1(+0%)
(2) Ecco 3.5/1, Successful from 3 lb higher in December 2020 and added jumpers' bumper 2 months later. Had a wind op prior to reappearance and solid rather than spectacular efforts this winter.
LTO Selection:
13:40 Wincanton Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(8) Kaizer 2.5/1, Respectable fifth in first-time cheekpieces here over Christmas and followed that up with a good second at Newcastle (without headgear). Player on current form.
9
2nd (9) (2.75/1 +31%) Dequall
2.75
2.75/1(+31%)
(9) Dequall 2.75/1, Didn't take to fences in December and he was rather laboured back hurdling at Wetherby, but latest third in this headgear at Newcastle was more encouraging and he has been eased another 2 lb.
5
3rd (5) (4.5/1 +0%) Milvale
4.5
4.5/1(+0%)
(5) Milvale 4.5/1, Only win to date came in handicap here (23f) off 5 lb higher 2 years ago but not far off his best fitted with this headgear when third here (23f) 5 weeks ago. Not taken lightly.
2
4th (2) (8.5/1 -6%) Taxmeifyoucan
8.5
8.5/1(-6%)
(2) Taxmeifyoucan 8.5/1, Has struggled for form in varied events since 3¼m Musselburgh win a year ago though caught the eye at Newcastle 16 days ago, so worth keeping an eye on with Brian Hughes retaining the ride.
3
5th (3) (25/1 +0%) Silva Eclipse
25
25/1(+0%)
(3) Silva Eclipse 25/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser at his best but not built on his return effort in 3 subsequent starts, including when back over hurdles at Wetherby on Boxing Day. Blinkers re-fitted and bit to prove.
1
6th (1) (25/1 -108%) Chapel Stile
25
25/1(-108%)
(1) Chapel Stile 25/1, Back to form returned to fences with Carlisle win a year ago. Found out in better company when pulled up in Scottish National but ran no sort of race on return. Blinkers applied back hurdling.
4
|PU| (4) (6.5/1 -160%) Highland Sting
6.5
6.5/1(-160%)
(4) Highland Sting 6.5/1, Lightly-raced sort. Opening mark looks a fair one on the pick of his form in maiden/novice hurdles. Well held at Thurles 11 days ago but yard is 3-9 with handicap hurdle debutants in last 12 months.
6
|RR| (6) (18/1 -13%) Final Reminder
18
18/1(-13%)
(6) Final Reminder 18/1, Didn't take to chasing last term but back on track over hurdles in May, causing 50/1 shock at Ayr prior to a good third at Cartmel later that month. Has gone well fresh previously.
LTO Selection:

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(6) Twentysharesofgrey 6.5/1, One win from 22 Flat runs. Stepped up on yard debut when good second of 9 in handicap at this course (7.1f, 14/1) 15 days ago. Task now is to back that up.

4.5
4.5/1(+44%)
(5) Brazen Arrow 4.5/1, Career best when winning 9-runner minor event at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 10/3) 12 days ago, looking well suited by a positive ride. Another holding claims with a repeat back in a handicap.
1
3rd (1) (1.75/1 -75%) Sir Gregory
1.75
1.75/1(-75%)
(1) Sir Gregory 1.75/1, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap at Kempton (6f, 2/1) 10 days ago, well on top finish. No surprise to see him out under a penalty and has to merit serious consideration again.
3
4th (3) (5/1 +9%) Atrafan
5
5/1(+9%)
(3) Atrafan 5/1, Arrives on a roll, supplementing pair of victories at Newcastle when successful over 7f here 10 days ago. Switches back to handicaps now but not discounted in present groove.
4
5th (4) (7.5/1 -36%) Won Love
7.5
7.5/1(-36%)
(4) Won Love 7.5/1, Respectable 3½ lengths third of 11 to Sir Gregory in handicap at Kempton (6f, 5/1) 10 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Can give a good account again.
2
6th (2) (40/1 -21%) Delagate The Lady
40
40/1(-21%)
(2) Delagate The Lady 40/1, 40/1, eighth of 9 in handicap at Lingfield (6f) 34 days ago, going with little fluency and weakening final 1f. Needs to bounce back.

7th (7) (7.5/1 +58%) Wicklow Warrior
7.5
7.5/1(+58%)
(7) Wicklow Warrior 7.5/1, One win from 21 Flat runs. 28/1, respectable 2½ lengths fifth of 13 to Atrafan in minor event at Newcastle (6f) 13 days ago, keeping on. Needs to build on that now.
10
8th (10) (125/1 -89%) Outofthegloom
125
125/1(-89%)
(10) Outofthegloom 125/1, Last of 12 in handicap (125/1) at this course (8.1f) 9 days ago. That was her first start for 6 months but she'll need to step up plenty on that to feature in any case.
8
9th (8) (22/1 +67%) Edessann
22
22/1(+67%)
(8) Edessann 22/1, Fifteen runs since sole success in 2020. 20/1 and hooded for 1st time, sixth of 10 in handicap at Chelmsford (7f) 4 weeks ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Others preferred.
9
10th (9) (200/1 -150%) Spirit Of Heaven
200
200/1(-150%)
(9) Spirit Of Heaven 200/1, 100/1, last of 8 in handicap at this course (5f) 13 days ago. Steps back up in trip here but hard to fancy on balance.
LTO Selection:
14:00 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(5) Blueberg 5.5/1, Underwent a wind op before good third of 6 in 19f Stratford handicap hurdle on reappearance in October. Disappointed next 2 starts, however, so bit to prove now chasing.
4
1st (4) (2.75/1 +54%) Nebuchadnezzar
2.75
2.75/1(+54%)
(4) Nebuchadnezzar 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler but not at that level all 3 chase starts this term. Mark is easing and in good hands but others more persuasive.
2
2nd (2) (1.2/1 -20%) Siroco Jo
1.2
1.2/1(-20%)
(2) Siroco Jo 1.2/1, Useful-looking gelding who doubled his hurdles tally with a bit in hand at Newbury in November. Might have found next run coming too soon and type to get back on track sent chasing following a break.
1
|PU| (1) (1.88/1 +32%) Benny's Bridge
1.88
1.88/1(+32%)
(1) Benny's Bridge 1.88/1, Near-useful hurdler on his day and matched pick of his form on belated switch to chasing when third at Doncaster. Easy to forgive Newbury run so worth another chance back down in class.
LTO Selection:
14:10 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(6) Ring Pretender 10/1, £22,000 3-y-o, Great Pretender mare. Half-sister to French 17f hurdle winner Reel Blood. Dam lightly raced on Flat. Looked in need of the run when fourth of 5 in a bumper at Ayr last month.
4
1st (4) (2.25/1 +18%) Bella Bluesky
2.25
2.25/1(+18%)
(4) Bella Bluesky 2.25/1, Bumper winner last March. Struggled in various company after but much more like it when second despite going off huge odds in a novice at Newcastle 16 days ago.
1
2nd (1) (12/1 +14%) Augharue
12
12/1(+14%)
(1) Augharue 12/1, Fourth of 5 finishers in his sole Irish point. Minor promise in bumpers to end 2021 but needs to raise his game now hurdling.
7
3rd (7) (6.5/1 -30%) Ultra Violet
6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(7) Ultra Violet 6.5/1, Fairly useful on Flat in France and stepped forward from his hurdling debut when third in a juvenile at Musselburgh in November. Fitted with headgear and let down by jumping switched to a handicap.
5
4th (5) (80/1 -100%) Fethard Glory
80
80/1(-100%)
(5) Fethard Glory 80/1, Modest form in bumpers (left Gavin Cromwell prior to reappearance) but very low-key start over hurdles.
2
|F| (2) (3/1 +25%) Domandlouis
3
3/1(+25%)
(2) Domandlouis 3/1, Bred more for stamina than speed and looked badly in need of the experience in a Kelso bumper on debut in May. Solid start over hurdles but this may not tap into his stamina back in trip.
3
|U| (3) (2.5/1 -11%) Ginger Mail
2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(3) Ginger Mail 2.5/1, Half-brother to yard's useful hurdler/chaser Elvis Mail. Runner-up in an ordinary bumper in October and made a promising first fist of hurdling when fifth at Ayr. Well related and sure to improve.
LTO Selection:
14:20 Kelso Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(5) Western Music 2/1, 3/1, creditable second of 10 in minor event at this course (7.1f) 10 days ago, conceding first run. Has good chance on form from her basement mark.

12
12/1(-100%)
(6) Rhubarb 12/1, Remains a maiden after 22 Flat runs. Respectable second of 8 in handicap (4/1) at this course (5f) 16 days ago. Back up in trip.

3.5
3.5/1(+42%)
(4) Glorious Charmer 3.5/1, Below form seventh of 12 in handicap (8/1) at this course (5f) 7 days ago. Back up in trip.

8
8/1(-14%)
(3) Frosted Angel 8/1, 15/2 and visored for first time, seventh of 11 in handicap at Kempton (6f) 10 days ago, not clear run. Likely she remains in form.

18
18/1(-157%)
(2) Mahale 18/1, Remains a maiden after 18 Flat runs. Creditable third of 9 in handicap at Kempton (6f, 16/1) 8 days ago. Makes tapeta debut.

5.5
5.5/1(+31%)
(7) Power Point 5.5/1, Below form eighth of 13 in minor event (9/2) at Newcastle (6f) 13 days ago. Others more persuasive.

10/1(+38%)
(1) Admirable Lad 10/1, Latest win at Wolverhampton in September. 25/1, ninth of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 29 days ago, not given a hard time. This represents a drop in class.
LTO Selection:
14:30 Southwell Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(5) Plenty Of Time 1.25/1, Points winner who posted promising debut second of 11 in novice here (19.8f, 8/1) 8 days ago, clear of rest. Holds leading claims on that form.
2
2nd (2) (7.5/1 -67%) Barford Diva
7.5
7.5/1(-67%)
(2) Barford Diva 7.5/1, Left her debut form well behind when third of 15 to Petticoat Lucy in novice hurdle here (15.2f) 39 days ago, staying on well. Not taken lightly now her stamina is drawn out more.
3
3rd (3) (20/1 -67%) Head And Heart
20
20/1(-67%)
(3) Head And Heart 20/1, Modest form shown in her two runs over hurdles, sixth of 8 in novice at Warwick (21f) 34 days ago. Needs a big step forward.
6
4th (6) (4.5/1 -29%) Sabrina
4.5
4.5/1(-29%)
(6) Sabrina 4.5/1, Ascot bumper scorer who recorded encouraging sixth of 15 in novice hurdle at Ludlow (21.2f) 43 days ago. May do better still for top yard.
4
5th (4) (6.5/1 +7%) Mansoline
6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(4) Mansoline 6.5/1, Winner of bumper at Warwick in March but off 10 months since coming in only 11th in similar event at Ascot. Not written off now she makes her hurdles debut.

6th (7) (300/1 -20%) Thequeenbee
300
300/1(-20%)
(7) Thequeenbee 300/1, Twice-raced maiden. 100/1, pulled up in novice hurdle at Warwick (21f) over 2 years ago. Has lots to prove on her comeback run.
8
7th (8) (250/1 -25%) Whatcoloristhewind
250
250/1(-25%)
(8) Whatcoloristhewind 250/1, Poor maiden hurdler for Gordon Elliott. Pulled up in novice at Tramore 112 days ago, so she has lots to prove for her new yard.
1
|PU| (1) (3.33/1 +17%) Petticoat Lucy
3.33
3.33/1(+17%)
(1) Petticoat Lucy 3.33/1, Confirmed hurdling debut promise when landing 15-runner novice hurdle here (15.2f) 39 days ago. Much respected under her 7 lb penalty now stepping up in trip.
LTO Selection:
14:40 Wincanton Novices Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Mount Melleray 6.5/1, Fair maiden hurdler/chaser in Ireland, third over fences at Cork in November. Didn't look any more straightforward on yard/British debut recently and switches back over the larger obstacles.
4
1st (4) (2.5/1 +25%) Upandatit
2.5
2.5/1(+25%)
(4) Upandatit 2.5/1, Still to get his head in front, disappointing back down in trip when sixth of 7 at Ayr (20.5f, soft) last month. Handicapper relinquishes his grip and he may have a say in proceedings.
5
2nd (5) (4/1 +86%) Morningside
4
4/1(+86%)
(5) Morningside 4/1, Winning pointer who proved modest in handful of starts over hurdles. Limited impact on first of 2 starts over fences last year and improvement required on reappearance for all his mark is easing.
2
3rd (2) (2/1 +0%) En Meme Temps
2
2/1(+0%)
(2) En Meme Temps 2/1, Fair 19f winner at 19f over hurdles who made promising start in this sphere when second in 20f handicap at Ayr. Similar form at Sedgefield last month and could have a major say in this.
3
4th (3) (2.75/1 +8%) Without Conviction
2.75
2.75/1(+8%)
(3) Without Conviction 2.75/1, Has taken well to fences, and she opened her account in 20f handicap chase at Hexham in December. Seemed unsuited by the slow pace at Newcastle recently so certainly worth another chance.
LTO Selection:
14:50 Kelso Handicap Chase (Class 4) 22f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Lucky Man 3.5/1, Winner at Newcastle in November. Good third of 10 in handicap at Lingfield (6f, AW, 3/1) 12 days ago, finishing strongly. Possible he will have even more to offer at this trip.
3
2nd (3) (28/1 -250%) Amber Dew
28
28/1(-250%)
(3) Amber Dew 28/1, Off the mark at fifth attempt in a Salisbury nursery (6f) in September. Far from disgraced in a stronger event later that month and one to monitor in betting starting out for new yard.
2
3rd (2) (1.62/1 +1%) Spring Is Sprung
1.62
1.62/1(+1%)
(2) Spring Is Sprung 1.62/1, Oasis Dream colt who got back on track when landing 5-runner C&D handicap 23 days ago, forging clear final 1f. Has the physique to suggest there's more to come and he's one to keep on side.
6
4th (6) (6.5/1 +35%) Definitive Force
6.5
6.5/1(+35%)
(6) Definitive Force 6.5/1, Dandy Man colt who overcame trouble-in-running to open his account on yard/handicap debut at Newcastle (6f) in November, staying on to lead close home. Of interest again from 5 lb higher mark.
1
5th (1) (3.6/1 +10%) Navello

7.5
7.5/1(-15%)
(5) True Jem 7.5/1, Lightly-raced winner. 15/2, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at this C&D 16 days ago. Further progress distinctly possible now she's off the mark.

(1) Honneur D'Ajonc 0.83/1, Third win of the campaign in another small-field contest at Exeter 3 weeks ago. Has to concede a double penalty back in a novice but he should be bang there.

2.75
2.75/1(-10%)
(8) Thanksforthehelp 2.75/1, Improved finishing position by one each start, shaping particularly well when runner-up at Huntingdon 3 weeks ago. Open to significant progress.

200
200/1(+20%)

22
22/1(+0%)
(6) South Mountain 22/1, Showed some promise in a brace of bumpers in late 2020 but offered little sent hurdling in a tongue strap at Exeter 13 months on. Hood now added.

(7) Tamgho Borget 50/1, Point winner but failed to beat a rival in a bumper and reportedly made a noise on hurdles debut in May. Since left Paul Nicholls/had wind op.

(5) Peterborough 4/1, Landed a handicap chase hat-trick in 2020 and arrives here having filled the frame on each of his last 3 starts over hurdles, latterly at Ludlow (15.7f) in November. Worth a look back over fences.

11
11/1(-47%)
(4) Sword Of Fate 11/1, Did the job in good style at Perth (2m) in September and better than he could show at Musselburgh a month later having lost ground at the start. Back from a break and worth a look.

3.2
3.2/1(-60%)
(3) Lucky Flight 3.2/1, Not the easy to predict but from easing mark he ran well when runner-up in a C&D handicap in December, his finishing effort not matching how he travelled. Down another 1 lb and not ruled out.

(1) Frere D'Armes 0.22/1, Picked up for £25,000 having finished second in an Irish point and made a useful prospect work hard to land odds on hurdles bow at Ludlow. Landed odds himself at Huntingdon since and can defy penalty.

(6) Stormin Crossgales 40/1, €5,500 3-y-o, £60,000 4-y-o, Sageburg gelding. Pulled too hard in a pair of bumpers at Exeter. Makes hurdles debut.

12
12/1(-50%)
(4) Madiba Passion 12/1, Expensive acquisition from points (dual winner) who was placed on first of his 2 bumper starts. Shaped well on Kempton hurdles debut in November 2019, too, but subsequent absence an obvious concern.
5
4th (5) (4.5/1 -13%) Stanley Pincombe
4.5
4.5/1(-13%)
(5) Stanley Pincombe 4.5/1, Shaped better sent hurdling than he did in any of his 3 bumpers when third of 12 in novice at this C&D (heavy) and is entitled to do better.

40
40/1(+0%)
(7) Wetanwindy 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 22/1, seventh of 11 in novice hurdle at this course (19.8f, good to soft) 8 days ago, considerately handled. Seemingly being brought along with handicaps in mind.

80
80/1(-60%)
(9) Chadlington Lad 80/1, Fair form in a pair 7f maidens on Flat for Ben Haslam but went with no promise on what was effectively his hurdling debut at Taunton.
10
7th (10) (25/1 -25%) Kolisi
25
25/1(-25%)
(10) Kolisi 25/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 1¼m) for William Haggas but continues to show little over hurdles for his new yard. Tongue strap on for 1st time.

66
66/1(-65%)
(11) Drag Race 66/1, Second start when winning Lingfield AW Flat claimer for Jamie Osborne. Had wind op and showed aptitude for hurdling when fifth at Taunton and might have found next run coming too soon.

(2) Lalochezia 7.5/1, Modest hurdler who was back on track despite an inadequate test when second in a 4-runner event at Catterick 3 weeks ago. Return to this trip should suit, but has a bit to find.

2nd (1) (1.25/1 +50%) Firth Of Forth
1.25
1.25/1(+50%)
(1) Firth Of Forth 1.25/1, Fair form in bumpers and matched that level at the third attempt over hurdles when runner-up at Newcastle recently. That form looks solid, and he should go well again.

3
3/1(-71%)
(3) Pat's Pick 3/1, Fair hurdler who ran with credit when fourth in novice at Ayr on debut for this yard (formerly with Noel Meade). Has looked fragile to date, but obvious claims if he can back that up.

(5) So They Say 5/1, £30,000 5-y-o, Malinas mare. Dam 2½m hurdle winner (stayed 3m). Won sole start in points (Nov 21). Tongue tie on and a notable Rules newcomer.

5th (4) (10/1 -186%) River Meadow
10
10/1(-186%)
(4) River Meadow 10/1, Could only manage seventh of 11 on his Ayr bumper debut in November but the fact he went off at only 5/2 suggests he must have been showing something at home. Steps up in trip for hurdle debut.

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

1.38/1(+50%)
(5) El Paso Wood 1.38/1, Notched up 4-timer in the French Provinces last year and he gained breakthrough win for current yard in handicap here (26.7f) 14 days ago, forging clear in straight. Weighted to go in again.

3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(6) Faustinovick 3.5/1, Yet to win a race of any description, but he arrives in good nick, third in handicap at Exeter (3m) 23 days ago. In the mix once more.

10
10/1(-233%)
(2) Didero Vallis 10/1, Fairly useful 25f winner but he came in only eighth of 10 in 3m handicap at Ascot 12 days ago. Yard going well, and sort to bounce back.

16
16/1(+0%)
(3) Christmas In April 16/1, Useful chaser who failed to get home over 28f when eighth in Plumpton handicap 32 days ago. Blinkers go on now, and not discounted back in trip.

4
4/1(-20%)
(4) Jeremy Pass 4/1, Off the mark over fences in 3m novice handicap at Ascot in November but he found little when second of 4 at Taunton (23f) since. Cheekpieces are reached for now and not one to trust implicitly.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(1) Elvis Mail 4/1, Useful hurdler/chaser with good record at this track, barely adequate test when only second in 2m handicap hurdle here last time. Leading claims back up in trip.

1st (3) (14/1 +0%) Saint D'oroux
14
14/1(+0%)
(3) Saint D'oroux 14/1, Useful hurdler but final outings in Ireland were a bit underwhelming. Has moved yards since, and back in calmer waters after 9 months off. Interesting if he stays.

6
6/1(-20%)
(5) Aurora Thunder 6/1, Back to form when landing an 8-runner event at Musselburgh 33 days ago. Now on career-high mark, but likely to give a good account once more.

7.5
7.5/1(-15%)
(2) Voix Du Reve 7.5/1, Smart at best and, having been given a chance by the handicapper, showed he retains ability when fourth to Aurora Thunder at Musselburgh a month ago. Could turn the tables with that rival.
4
4th (4) (20/1 -67%) Ashington
20
20/1(-67%)
(4) Ashington 20/1, Successful in handicap hurdle at Sedgefield in March and a novice chase at Hexham in June. Disappointing on the Flat/over hurdles lately but cheekpieces go back on (has worn them on the Flat).

0.5
0.5/1(+64%)
(6) Famous Bridge 0.5/1, Third in an Irish bumper and made his second hurdle start a winning one at Ayr in November. Good second at this course under a penalty next time, and opening mark looks potentially lenient.

(9) Hedychium 66/1, Out of a winning miler but didn't show enough in a junior bumper at Newbury to think she can make an impact in this.

6
6/1(+50%)

11
11/1(-389%)
(1) Annie Wicks 11/1, Closely related to useful chaser Annsam and showed something to work on when third at Plumpton on debut, doing her best work at the finish. Claims if she can build on that.

50
50/1(+50%)
(5) Kilfords Queen 50/1, Third in an Irish point but little show under Rules so far.

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.
