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

SOMETHING ABOUTHER finished ahead of principal rival Miss Tempo on a previous meeting last August. The selection might prefer a sounder surface and her jumping was novicey when falling on chase debut but might benefit from that experience. Miss Tempo would also prefer better ground and while her form has been hit-and-miss, her Naas run was encouraging. A debut point-to-point winner, she is rated 3lb higher than the selection (at 119) over hurdles but disappointed behind her at the Galway festival. Four-time winning hurdler Missiee was well held in the race in which the selection fell last month. Kilashee defeated Miss Tempo in a November 2021 hurdle but is a 16-race chase maiden while stablemate Barbaha Queen has a low rating. Dual point-to-point winner Ma Hoey, out of a half-sister to Lady Rebecca, has already had a foal and her recent racecourse form is poor.

MISS TEMPO has some fairly useful form to her name over hurdles so is taken to go in at the first time of asking over fences in a maiden where lots arrive with big question marks against them. Something Abouther can chase home Henry de Bromhead's mare if building on her Fairyhouse debut chasing effort.

This is a good opportunity for MISS TEMPO to make a winning chase debut. She was the best of these over hurdles and won a maiden point

ACTIVIST took a nice step forward after his runner-up effort at Lingfield to score in comfortable fashion at Plumpton on Monday. David Pipe's gelding has a 7lb penalty to shoulder and takes a step back up in trip, but that is unlikely to prevent him from going in again. The main threat might be Imperial Measure, who put in a promising display when hitting the crossbar over C&D and is turned out again before his revised mark kicks in. Wellwillya has claims judged on his third at Exeter two starts ago.

This looks fairly competitive but there was enough encouragement in his finishing effort over C&D last time to suggest WHYNOTNOWROY could just be worth chancing to build on that run operating from such a lowly mark. Imperial Measure has more races in him judged on his recent C&D second and is feared. Plumpton-scorer Activist back up in trip and Wellwillya also command respect.

A first-time hood seemed to help WHYNOTNOWROY last time and he looks capable of better. Monday winner Activist is hard to leave out.

WILLSBURG benefited from stepping up in trip when getting off the mark over timber at Ffos Las at the start of the month. His jumping wasn't particularly fluent on that occasion and it is hoped the application of cheekpieces might aid his cause in that regard. Similar comments apply to Magical King, who also boasts the same headgear for the first time, while Tommy Time is expected to be competitive following wind surgery.

MAGICAL KING possesses much the best form on show so this reliable sort is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success back in these calmer waters. Recent Ffos Las scorer Willsburg rates the main threat, with Tommy Time not discounted either if resurgent after breathing surgery.

Stuart Edmunds' Croft Farm stable is in tremendous form and this looks a good opportunity for MAGICAL KING to get off the mark.

STARLIGHT CATO failed to win from six point-to-point runs but showed improvement when finishing second in a recent handicap chase. His pointing form was satisfactory but having shown himself in a better light at Naas, looks likely to win from his revised 1lb higher mark. Tangental finished fourth in that recent race and while lightly-raced over fences and is rated 12lb higher over hurdles, is nonetheless quite well exposed in that sphere. He Fitz In neatly competes from 1lb below the race's ceiling rating and while consistent and suited by conditions, doesn't look ahead of the handicapper. Ten-year-old mare Eddies Pride has won just once from 34 runs but is an able soft-ground stayer.

TANGENTAL shaped with some encouragement at Navan last time and he's on a lower chasing mark than hurdling, so he's worth taking a chance on to get the better of Starlight Cato, who finished ahead of him (second) in the same race. He Fitz In is another one to consider.

There is a good chance though that Navan fourth TANGENTAL might come on enough for that run to turn the tables on Starlight Cato

Last-time-out winner HARA KIRI managed to get the better of what appeared a handicap blot at Market Rasen earlier this month. Olly Murphy's charge is effectively only 5lb higher in the ratings if taking Dylan Johnston's 3lb claim into account and the seven-year-old should take all the beating. Churchman caught the eye when a staying-on fourth over C&D in November and the Dunaden gelding may give the selection most to think about, shortly followed by Odin's Quest.

HARA KIRI did well to sustain his run from so far back to overhaul another thrown-in rival at Market Rasen 23 days ago and looks capable of defying an 8 lb rise on that evidence. Churchman caught the eye making late headway under considerate handling on just his second handicap start over C&D in November and must enter calculations, with handicap-debutante Pollyonesock another to consider.

Gary Moore's ODIN'S QUEST has to go right handed (blind in left eye) and he brings solid claims after a staying-on third at Taunton.

This looks like a tricky puzzle to solve, so only a tentative vote goes to TRY THE MONEY. Henry Oliver's gelding has had excuses on two of his career starts so far, losing a shoe on debut and the ground possibly being too quick last time. Although he hasn't shown a great deal, better is anticipated now he enters the handicap ranks. Amalfi Bay, who produced his best NH effort to finish second at Exeter on his latest outing, could also have a say on his handicap bow, along with Johannes.

JOHANNES has been well held on all 3 starts over hurdles to date but, given he's a fair 2m winner on the Flat, it's reasonable to assume he can do much better now tackling a longer trip on handicap debut. Dance Havana and Amalfi Bay are other interesting handicap debutants, and they are feared most.

Johannes, Dance Havana and AMALFI BAY are all of interest on their handicap debuts with the last-named just preferred.

Eveque finally gained a first success on his most recent outing at Sedgefield when proving too strong for COOLMOYNE (second). However, the former would have to command plenty of respect as the winner's improvement may well have come from stepping up to 3m3f and a 10lb pull at the weights could see Simon Waugh's gelding reverse the form over this distance. Le Grand Vert didn't appear to get home in the same contest and could bounce back in a first-time visor.

EVEQUE built on his second at Musselburgh in January when getting off the mark at Sedgefield next time and can score again now that he's up and running. Ali Star Bert has also been in good form and is respected, while Coolmoyne was runner-up to Eveque last month and could be thereabouts once more.

The 10yo EVEQUE got off the mark in fine style at Sedgefield in January and he is taken to defy a 6lb rise.

Seven-time winner ELLAAT might benefit from a recent all-weather outing and is better suited by this distance than most. His 2023 form was good, ran well in a November hurdle and likes heavy ground. Answering ran well in two recent useful maidens. The winner, runner-up and fourth-placed horses from his December run won subsequently and he indeed chased home that same runner-up when finishing second over course-and-distance recently. He concedes 4lb to the selection. Three-time winner Robinstown won a similar claimer by 25 lengths in January but dropping in distance is a concern. Ballyadam Destiny flopped in that Limerick claimer and now runs over an inadequate distance. Politicise hasn't won since October 2020 and is another which lacks pace at this trip. Cosmic Rock runs in first-time cheekpieces while veteran Magnium pulled up recently. Routine Excellence pulled up in a recent Musselburgh handicap chase on February 3, seems to have lost his way and would prefer further.

BALLYADAM DESTINY disappointed at Limerick a month ago but he had been in reasonable form prior to that and, if back on his game he should be capable of landing this. Robinstown won that race easily and will likely capitalise if the selection fluffs his lines again. Ellaat is also respected.

The vote goes to ELLAAT\ despite a disappointing effort at Dundalk. A repeat of his previous Punchestown run could be good enough

ON THE PLATFORM shaped better than the beaten distance suggests when third at Hereford last month. The eight-year-old races off the same mark as his C&D second in November and he could be ready to strike at this level. Market support for the returning Supervisor would be interesting, with Venetia Williams' veteran unexposed over this distance. Barrakhov also has the form to feature and he isn't easily dismissed having undergone a wind procedure since a third-placed finish at Huntingdon five weeks ago.

ON THE PLATFORM is proving a reliable sort and is weighted to gain his first success over fences. Supervisor could have a big say on his return, while Come On du Berlais is another to note now going chasing.

He's had some more time out but SUPERVISOR has races in him off his current mark if his jumping can stand the test.

More was expected from Jackpot D'athou when he could only manage fourth at Chepstow in December, and he will need to improve upon that display if he wants to deny LIVIN ON LUCO. The six-year-old beat a well-fancied Nicky Henderson runner by a neck at Chepstow, putting a fall at the same venue behind him. He could easily take another step forward and record a double. Mistral Milly can fight it out for the minor honours after her fourth at Lingfield's Winter Million fixture.

LIVIN ON LUCO possesses the best form on show so is taken to supplement his Chepstow victory at the chief expense of Jackpot d'Athou, who rates a major threat if getting back on the up after a break for a stable which has farmed this contest in recent years. Hurdling newcomer Barley Gin can't be ruled out either, especially if the market vibes are positive for Neil Mullholland's mare.

Just two serious form contenders and LIVIN ON LUCO is preferred to Jackpot D'Athou who ran flat last time out.

I Wish You has placed on both starts to date and is entitled to improve on his latest effort as that was his debut over timber. Rockola makes her first appearance over hurdles and is respected along with Speiriuil, who has hit the frame on all three outings.

An interesting clash between promising pair WRECKLESS ERIC and I Wish You, with the excellent form of the Ben Pauling stable in February tipping things in the former's favour. Jonjo O'Neill newcomer Glimpse of Glory would also need considering should the betting vibes be strong.

Preference is for Newbury runner-up WRECKLESS ERIC, who sets a good form standard and can be expected to improve.

THE BIG CLOUD has losses to recoup following two recent defeats but was an unlucky loser on New Year's Eve. Gambled-on when finishing second here in early December, she met trouble in-running over this distance at Punchestown subsequently and while she is another frustrating 4lb-higher, should win from her mark. Cian Quirke returns from injury on Bonnie Kellie, which appears well handicapped in this sphere, being rated 23lb higher over fences. She has winning form at this distance in the past (in January 2022) but has been running in staying chases recently, which is concerning. Mag Dillane won a recent heavy-ground maiden hurdle but had previously been well held in handicaps and has plenty weight. Tingarren Express is a 20-race maiden but ran well behind a nicely-in winner over course-and-distance recently.

BONNIE KELLIE has been an improved mare over fences this season so looks interesting from her much lower hurdle mark. The Big Cloud heads the dangers on the back of 2 good placed efforts in December. Limerick maiden winner Mag Dillane should also play a part, while Tingarran Express was a good second over C&D on her latest start.

This could go to bottom-weight TINGARRAN EXPRESS, who saves her best form for here and can go one better than two weeks ago

DELLA CASA LUNGA was an impressive winner over an extended 2m5f here earlier in the month and she is effectively 1lb better off today with Cameron Iles' claim taken into consideration. The only concern for the Champs Elysees mare is this longer trip, but a double could be on the horizon if her stamina doesn't ebb away. Recent Wincanton runner-up Time In The Sun is heading in the right direction and further improvement cannot be ruled out on her handicap debut, while Fortuna Ligna also holds claims.

7 lb-conditional Cameron Iles has a very healthy strike-rate in handicap hurdles this season and can boost that further on DELLA CASA LUNGA, who looks fairly treated up 6 lb for her course win 3 weeks ago even before her rider's allowance is taken into account. Handicap newcomer Time in The Sun is an interesting opponent, while Pretending should also have a say if her stamina holds now stepping up to 3m.

If she stays this longer trip, and Ludlow is a good place to try it, then the consistent PRETENDING (nap) can play a major role.

Star Flyer was sporting first-time cheekpieces (retained) when running out a ready winner over an extended 2m4f at Southwell and even with a 9lb hike to contend with, he warrants consideration. That said, preference is for KINGOFTHEWEST, who shaped like he was ready for this step back up in trip when finishing a staying-on second at Lingfield and, off an unchanged mark, he may take some stopping. Art Decco was a comfortable winner over 3m2f at Fontwell and, bidding to defy a 7lb rise, he commands attention too.

STAR FLYER reacted well to first-time headgear and jumped accurately when scoring at Southwell last time and a 9-lb rise might not be enough to stop him following up. He gets the nod over fellow last-time-out winner Art Decco, with Kingofthewest another one to consider.

Art Decco and STAR FLYER (nap) had good wins last time but the latter is particularly respected after a taking Southwell success.

EATON COLLINA could not have won any easier over C&D last time out and a 7lb rise for that success could prove lenient as he looks to follow up for his in-form connections. Ground conditions are in his favour once more and he should have too much for the capable Heros, as well as Will Sting, who was a creditable second at Leicester last month.

EATON COLLINA represents the in-form Kerry Lee team and can follow up his recent C&D success. Will Sting made life difficult for himself last time but still posted a creditable second-placed effort, with Placenet also intriguing down in trip with 2 runs for his current yard under his belt.

There was a lot to like about the comfortable win of EATON COLLINA over C&D four weeks ago and he can defy a 7lb rise.

OLYMPIC MAN won't excite everyone but has shown enough in two Irish runs to suggest he can win this. Beaten 18 lengths by now-stablemate Haut En Couleurs on Auteuil debut in 2020, he finished second in a Compiegne hurdle the following year but was then absent for 845 days prior to running well at the Galway festival in August. His jumping can be problematic however and made many errors when beaten at that course in October. He returns form a break but has heavy-ground form. Heavy-ground bumper winner The Story So Far was well beaten in two maiden hurdles but caught the eye when staying on behind a useful winner at Punchestown. He is eligible to make his mark. Stablemate On Your Way himself runs in his third hurdle and needs to improve to win. Hollow Rodger showed some ability at Thurles while Oakley is a good-ground flat performer who has his third run over hurdles.

OLYMPIC MAN stands out on form in this line-up and can make light of a 5-month absence with further progress expected for his top yard. Hollow Rodger and The Story So Far can fill the placings.

This should go to OLYMPIC MAN, beaten at 2-5 when runner-up at Galway in October, but is likely to be too good for these

The Stuart Edmunds stable can do little wrong at present and ARIZONA CARDINAL looked back to his best when scoring comfortably at Leicester last month. A 5lb rise for that success could prove lenient, and stepping back up in trip should be of no issue as he looks to see off the likes of One True King, who was a solid runner-up over C&D recently. Midnight Mary is another to consider dropped in grade.

ARIZONA CARDINAL's overall profile hints at consistency issues but, given the manner of his victory at Leicester last month, Stuart Edmunds' 8-y-o is fancied to make light of a 5 lb rise and record a fourth success over the larger obstacles. Duke of Deception kept mistakes to a minimum back over fences when runner-up at Aintree on Boxing Day, so he heads up the opposition, with Midnight Mary and One True King taken to fight out minor honours.

The 8yo ARIZONA CARDINA readily accounted for an in-form horse at Leicester and his stable continues on the crest of a wave.

SPITALFIELD travelled like the winner for a long way before fading into third close home in testing conditions over 3m1f at Huntingdon and, nudged up 1lb with his stable in good form, he gets the vote to go two places better. My Last Oscar fairly bolted up at Hexham in December, but his inconsistent profile tempers enthusiasm. Rivers Corner clearly benefited from the step up to an extended 3m when winning readily at Wincanton and although raised 10lb, he can get involved again.

RIVERS CORNER had a lot in hand when stepping up to 3m for the first time at Wincanton so even a 10 lb rise may not stop him. Fellow last-time-out scorer The Midwife also looks feasibly treated from her revised mark so she's second choice ahead of Spitalfield, who travelled notably well for a long way over a slightly longer trip last time. There are also a few unexposed sorts to note in the betting in an interesting race for the level.

Rivers Corner won't mind how soft it gets but Market Rasen winner THE MIDWIFE is preferred in the hope the ground isn't too testing.

An impressive winner over C&D earlier in the season and an early faller on her most recent start at Haydock, WINDTOTHELIGHTNING could still be well treated off a mark of 132 and looks capable of regaining the winning thread. There was just under two lengths between War Soldier (first) and The Four Sixes (third) when they met over C&D earlier in the month and both are likely to be thereabouts again. North Parade and Uncle Bert are noted too.

A competitive handicap with the tentative vote going to UNCLE BERT. He stuck to his task behind a progressive one at Chepstow on his most recent outing and a capable 7-lb conditional now takes over in the saddle. War Soldier and The Four Sixes are closely matched on their running over C&D last time and they head the dangers.

Preference is for the thriving NORTH PARADE (nap), who completed a Newcastle hat-trick in good style a fortnight ago.

FOLLY MASTER has been penalised 16lb for winning easily at Punchestown recently but might defy the hike. A point-to-point winner last May, he isn't ideally suited by dropping down in distance today but testing conditions will suit. Carlas Big Jim is 7lb higher than his recent course-and-distance win and while he has obvious claims, competes from a career high rating and is more exposed than the selection. Four-year-old Tranquil Sea improved on his handicap debut last month and while 4lb higher, can progress further. Mr Social has been running well but doesn't look ahead of the handicapper while Housemartin returns from a small break but likes testing ground. Whateys Quest was reported to be post race normal when pulling up here recently.

A case can be made for a few of these but TRANQUIL SEA signalled he's ready to get off the mark when a very good Punchestown second last time out and is weighted to go one better now. Folly Master rates a big threat however on the back of his comfortable success at the same track, while Housemartin, Carlas Big Jim and Whateys Quest can all have a say too.

An eye-catcher at Newbury on his hurdles debut, FOURTOWNS should have plenty more improvement to come on what is just his second start for the Ben Pauling yard. The five-year-old gets the vote ahead of Jour D'evasion, who was runner-up to a subsequent winner at Huntingdon while also finishing second over C&D on his penultimate start. A penalty for an easy success at Sedgefield will make life tougher for Schmilsson, but he is entitled to be thereabouts as well.

JOUR D'EVASION again ran well when finding only one too good in novice company at Huntingdon 5 weeks ago and a repeat should see him thereabouts again. Sedgefield scorer Schmilsson is improving nicely and he's feared under a penalty, with Fourtowns another expected to figure following an encouraging fourth at Newbury in a good contest.

There was a 50-1 winner last year but this looks good for one of the three form horses, of whom JOUR D'EVASION appeals most.

The tongue-tie/visor combination (both worn today) appeared to do the trick for LILITH at Carlisle earlier this month and a 4lb rise might not be enough to anchor her if arriving in the same mood. Walk In Clover drops into class 4 company for the first time since April last year, when successful at Southwell, and she rates the biggest threat. Whatsdastory has yet to run a bad race in three visits here and she cannot be ruled out either.

Anthony Honeyball fires a couple of darts in this mares' handicap and it's JUNIPER who makes most appeal dropping in grade and with title-chasing Harry Cobden booked. Stablemate Lilith is sure to be popular having resumed winning ways at Carlisle last month, but the biggest threat may emerge from Walk In Clover, who faced a stiff task in listed company at Doncaster in December and will surely appreciate this easier assignment.

Lilith is likely to be dangerous but WALK IN CLOVER has strong handicap form this winter and this is a drop in class.

Runner-up on two of his last three starts over fences, HERITIER has done well since joining new connections and it may be that a return to the smaller obstacles prompts a return to winning ways. Narrowly denied at Catterick, Beaumesnil can give him the most to think about and is noted along with Sailed Away, who wasn't beaten far on his penultimate start at Huntingdon. Others to note include Brandt, Play By The Rules and Western Jill.

HERITIER was runner-up having attracted support over fences at Sedgefield and he's back off his lower hurdles mark now, so he's fancied to open his account for his current yard. Sailed Away is a big threat dropped back in trip and Brandt is one to note on his first handicap outing.

The vote goes to HERITIER, who won over hurdles in November and has run some good races over fences for his new yard this winter.

This looks weak and MADE IN THE WOODS might take advantage of bottom-weight. Successful once from 19 previous starts, she is rated 15lb higher over fences and is capable in that sphere. She was well held by the easy winner at Punchestown recently but defeated plenty horses and is ideally suited by today's stamina test. Glorious Singer is a 26-race maiden who ran well in a recent Thurles handicap but was well held behind the selection in January. Recent point-to-point winner Aleish Lass, which is out of a half-sister to smart Dedigout, is interesting on her return to hurdling but has enough weight. Dual points winner Majestic Designs could be nicely treated on her best form but was found to have 'blood at both nostrils' on her most recent run.

MADE IN THE WOODS is well treated on his chase form and, having fared best of those ridden prominently in a contest that became a bit of a slog at Punchestown on his most recent outing, he's put forward as the answer. Glorious Singer is a long-standing maiden but is sure to pose a big threat if reproducing her latest effort, while Sky Tempest could show more now switched to a low-grade handicap.

In a weak race, it may be worth taking the risk with recent Thurles third GLORIOUS SINGER, a maiden having her 25th run over hurdles

GAME ON FOR GLORY has yet to strike over fences, but two runner-up efforts have been highly creditable and this looks like as good an opportunity as any to open her account. Lucy Wadham's charge is preferred to Lime Drop, who arrives with a similar profile and hails from the in-form Henry Daly outfit. Hamartia has yet to find her way for new connections but cannot be ruled out on some of her best Irish form.

This could develop into a match between in-form pair LIME DROP and Game On For Glory, with marginal preference for the former, who should be well suited by the step back up in trip.

This looks uncompetitive and much easier than the races GAME ON FOR GLORY has been contesting. Lime Drop is the danger.

17:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

Preference is for CINQUE VERDE, who was on target over C&D a fortnight ago. She was nudged up 2lb for that effort, but this looks a good opportunity given Jack Doughty can claim his full 7lb. Twilight Madness is the main danger as he has held his form well since winning at Lingfield on New Year's Eve, while Dubai Station rates best of the rest.

CINQUE VERDE won well under her promising rider here on her return a fortnight ago and can strike again. Twilight Madness might be the danger.

This looks good for CINQUE VERDE (nap), whose success two weeks ago came over C&D under today's claiming rider Jack Doughty.

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

SORCELEUR brings the strongest form to the table, twice finishing third behind a winner who has since gone on to complete the hat-trick on his jumping bow, and Paul Nicholls' youngster is difficult to oppose. Harry Cobden has seemingly chosen to ride him over stablemate Berliath, a nicely-bred gelding who cost 65,000 pounds as a three-year-old. Calli Black rates best of the rest.

SORCELEUR has shown plenty behind a very promising one in a couple of bumpers and is the one to beat under Harry Cobden. Stablemate Berliath is an interesting newcomer, as is Whynotnowbart.

This looks all about SORCELEUR who has finished within close proximity of a smart prospect in bumpers at Exeter and Cheltenham.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

A few with chances, so only a tentative vote can go to DARK SIDE PRINCE. Jessica Macey's gelding struggled last time out, but he drops in class and is now 4lb below his last winning mark. Stall one ought to work in his favour too and it would come as no surprise were he to return to form. Cabeza De Llave did well to come from off the pace to win here 20 days ago, while Araifjan must also be taken seriously.

If CABEZA DE LLAVE is in the same form as when scoring here 3 weeks ago a 3 lb rise may not stop him. Araifjan has gained his 4 course wins over 6f but he is effective at the minimum trip and is second choice ahead of the reliable Mehmo.

This can go to DARK SIDE PRINCE, who was below form in a tongue-tie last time and that equipment is now left off.

18:30 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

Cocktail Dress kept on powerfully when narrowly denied over 7f here last week and she is likely to mount a serious challenge now sent over the mile. However, there has been no stopping Charlie Appleby of late and his newcomer MAGICAL HOPE gets the nod. Bred in the purple, she is likely to thrive over further in time but this looks a good starting point. More Than A Feelin shaped with promise on her debut and is noted too.

The well-bred MAGICAL HOPE is taken to make a successful start. Orchard Keeper is a big player after her much-improved showing at Wolverhampton, while Cocktail Dress just failed on her return here last week having been easy to back and can progress further up in trip.

Magical Hope is a fascinating newcomer but this can go to ORCHARD KEEPER, who showed improved form last time. There's more to come.

19:00 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Stepping up to a mile was a key factor in an improved effort from IVASECRET when the gelding comfortably landed a class 5 handicap at Kempton last week and, given he has won off much higher marks in the past, a 5lb penalty might not be enough to prevent him following up here. Roscioli can also figure if building on his recent near-miss at the same venue, while Lunarscape is also respected.

It could be worth siding with the penalised IVASECRET, who found the return to this trip firmly in his favour when running out a good winner at Kempton 8 days ago and he remains with plenty of scope from a handicapping perspective on old form. Monkmoor Pip following a good run at Wolverhampton/re-united with Oisin Murphy rates the lead danger, ahead of Lunarscape.

The step up to this trip enabled IVASECRET to break a losing run last time and he can follow up under his penalty.

19:30 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 7f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

The handicapper has given the consistent DOVES OF PEACE a chance despite him finishing third in six of his last eight starts. With track and trip both ideal, the Michael Bell-trained gelding holds a strong chance of gaining a first career success. Ballybaymoonshiner won over 7f at Kempton two starts ago and commands respect, while Captain Wentworth can also figure back over this trip.

A tight-knit handicap in which marginal preference is for UNITED FORCE who reverts to handicap company on a handy-looking mark and can end a lengthy losing sequence. Captain Wentworth is feared most now reverted to his optimum distance ahead of in-form pair Ballybaymoonshiner and Doves Of Peace.

Doves Of Peace is a player but he's yet to win and preference is for CAPTAIN WENTWORTH, who should be suited by the return to 7f.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Q TWENTY BOY's last appearance in a classified event saw him victorious at Wolverhampton last month and the nine-year-old makes plenty of appeal based on his recent second at the same venue in handicap company. Admirable Lad has been in mostly consistent form since the beginning of the year and is expected to be competitive once again, while Viewfromthestars is capable of going close.

Q TWENTY BOY has been in pretty good form since the autumn and might be good for another win here. The chief threat may come from stablemate Viewfromthestars. Universal Grace and Admirable Lad are others likely to be on the premises.

A chance is taken with SUMAC, who could get the run of the race from his low draw and is taken to beat Q Twenty Boy.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.

Hotspur Harry arrives here 2lb well-in following his C&D second last week when he was well supported. Robert Eddery's gelding is likely to go well once again, but he may play second fiddle to MR TRICK. A winner here off 1lb lower in December, he took a step back in the right direction when third at Wolverhampton latest and it would be no surprise to see him get back to winning ways. Curtiz and Twilight Guest are also noted.

HOTSPUR HARRY isn't entirely straightforward but he attracted support and shaped well over C&D a week ago and is worth a chance to go one better from a reduced mark. Mr Trick is in good order and looks a danger, while Twilight Guest could feature if he's ready to go after 4 months off.

There are a few to consider but it could be going with MARION'S BOY, who is on a good mark, is down in grade and gets Rossa Ryan.

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.
