(3) Flaming Ambition 3.2/1, €12,000 3-y-o, Fame And Glory gelding. Half-brother to a point winner. Dam point winner. Won sole start in points last year and produced an eye-catching opening run over hurdles at Doncaster last month. Longer trip here sure to suit.

1.1
1.1/1(+27%)
(2) Benign Dictator 1.1/1, Fairly useful bumper winner who posted promising second of 8 in novice at Uttoxeter (2m) on hurdles bow in January, finishing well. Ridden with more restraint when fourth up in trip at Southwell this month and likely has more to offer.
1
3rd (1) (2/1 +69%) Another Mystery
2
2/1(+69%)
(1) Another Mystery 2/1, Point winner who failed to meet expectations in a bumper but much more like it when third on hurdles debut at Plumpton in January. Didn't finish race off with much conviction but remains open to progress.

20
20/1(-25%)

(4) Jeffery's Cross 1/1, Has shown a fair level of ability on both outings over hurdles so far, third in novice (15/2) at Southwell (20.4) on latest start. Remains with potential, so he needs considering.
7
2nd (7) (11/1 +78%) Royal Lake
11
11/1(+78%)
(7) Royal Lake 11/1, Underwent breathing surgery ahead of hurdling debut ninth of 17 in novice over C&D. Failed to land a blow at Plumpton since and is seemingly being brought along with handicaps in mind.
2
3rd (2) (5/1 +38%) Blackcauseway
5
5/1(+38%)
(2) Blackcauseway 5/1, Successful on sole outing in points but failed to meet expectations when pulled up on hurdles bow. More like it when sixth at Southwell recently and tongue tied is applied for this qualifying run.
8
4th (8) (7/1 -40%) Hana Collonges
7
7/1(-40%)
(8) Hana Collonges 7/1, Fetched £55,000 as a 3-y-o and out of a sister to useful hurdler/chaser Robinson Collonges. Didn't show a great deal in a Ludlow bumper in December but she's in top hands.

5th (9) (200/1 -100%) Walk In The Stars
200
200/1(-100%)
(9) Walk In The Stars 200/1, Walk In The Park mare who was sent off at 200/1 but did plug on in latter stages to finish midfield in a Huntingdon bumper (15.8f) last month. Failed by a long chalk to repeat that next time and other appeal more on hurdles bow.
1
|PU| (1) (3.2/1 -28%) Abegudsam
3.2
3.2/1(-28%)
(1) Abegudsam 3.2/1, Sales price rocketed to £58,000 after winning a point at the second attempt. Fair start under Rules when third at Uttoxeter in January but not so good upped in trip at Hereford next time. Can feature on this qualifying run.

20
20/1(-25%)
(6) Richmond Hill 20/1, Oscar gelding who finished a never-dangerous seventh on debut in a Newbury novice hurdle earlier this month. Will need to leave that effort well behind to feature.

250
250/1(-25%)
(3) Dreams Of Gold 250/1, Tailed off when pulled up 3 out at Doncaster 3 months ago so makes minimal appeal based on that effort.

8
5th (8) (9/1 -50%) Cap D'antibes
9
9/1(-50%)
(8) Cap D'antibes 9/1, 5/2, didn't need to improve to win 8-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 34 days ago, very much having run of race. In excellent form, so could prove dangerous if he gets across from stall 11.
2

8
8/1(-14%)
(2) Latent Heat 8/1, Temperamental sort. C&D winner. Latest win here in February. Fifth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (7f, 11/4) 36 days ago. Others make more appeal.

2.5/1(+17%)
(7) Wonder Starelzaam 2.5/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in January. 13/8, third of 5 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 54 days ago, running on late. Still getting better and shaped best last time, so can get back to winning ways.
9
8th (9) (11/1 +21%) Desert Land
11
11/1(+21%)
(9) Desert Land 11/1, Untrustworthy individual. Three wins from 16 runs last year. 15/2, didn't need to improve to win 11-runner handicap at this C&D (AW), missing break. Off 106 days. Tricky customer who needs a strong pace to show his form.
4
9th (4) (8/1 +0%) Glasvegas
8
8/1(+0%)
(4) Glasvegas 8/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 13 runs last year. Good fourth of 9 in handicap at Wolverhampton (8.6f, 10/1) 34 days ago, left poorly placed. On a fair mark if everything drops right.

9
9/1(+0%)

14
14/1(+13%)

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(7) Spiritofthenorth 2.5/1, Showed fair form in 3 hurdling runs before the turn of the year. Had looked irresolute on the Flat but there was no faulting his attitude when off the mark at Wolverhampton recently and he makes plenty of appeal now back over hurdles.

5
5/1(-67%)
(3) Patagonia 5/1, Brother to smart hurdler/very smart chaser Diego du Charmil. Promise in a brace of Sedgefield novice hurdles (19.8f) and remains open to improvement with tongue tie and cheekpieces combination being tried.

5
5/1(-25%)
(5) Rory And Me 5/1, Dual bumper in 2019 who has shown fair form over hurdles, though failed to get the job done after being left with the race at his mercy at Newcastle early last month. Looks vulnerable from a win perspective.

8
8/1(-33%)
(6) Scudamore 8/1, Fair AW Flat winner for Ivan Furtado. Similar form when hitting frame all 3 starts over hurdles, including in a Fakenham claimer last time, and could be a factor again.

40
40/1(-21%)

|PU| (1) (11/1 +0%) Sundrenched
11
11/1(+0%)
(1) Sundrenched 11/1, Fairly useful bumper winner. Well held in maiden hurdles since but bumper ability provides hope for better in handicaps. Check betting.
(4) Head Law 1.1/1, Bumper winner who arrives with a progressive profile over hurdles having score in a novice at Huntingdon 25 days ago. Opening mark looks potentially lenient, and he's likely to be suited by a stronger pace.
7
2nd (7) (18/1 +73%) Smith's Bay
18
18/1(+73%)
(7) Smith's Bay 18/1, Fair winning hurdler for Alan King but lost way over fences for that yard and has been too keen over hurdles for current stable. Hard to fancy despite sliding mark.
8
3rd (8) (5/1 +23%) Independence
5
5/1(+23%)
(8) Independence 5/1, Fair bumper winner who has only shown modest form as a hurdler but is going the right way. Respectable run on the Flat 83 days ago, but might strip fitter for this first run since.

11
11/1(+8%)

4.5
4.5/1(+78%)
(6) Madiba Passion 4.5/1, Expensive acquisition from points (dual winner) but clearly had his share of issues given, and his latest effort over hurdles (pulled up at Newbury) was a tame one.
2
6th (2) (9/1 +25%) Maninsane
9
9/1(+25%)
(2) Maninsane 9/1, Market Rasen maiden winner in October and would've been placed bar falling at the last at Doncaster in December. Below form both subsequent starts, though.

12/1(+76%)
(5) Harde Fashion 12/1, Fair in bumpers for Kim Bailey and made a promising start over hurdles for new yard when narrowly denied at Stratford in October. Hasn't built on that since, though, and opening mark looks a bit high.

(8) Jet Of Magic 4/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time when winning 6-runner handicap hurdle at Doncaster (19.4f) 27 days ago, digging deep. In the mix despite 4 lb rise if headgear works the oracle again.

7
7/1(+7%)
(7) Last Date 7/1, C&D winner. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Lingfield (7f, AW, 28/1) 19 days ago. Visor back on. Not easy to make a case for.

8
8/1(+20%)
(5) Soyounique 8/1, Only eighth of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Lingfield (7f, AW) 19 days ago. Others appeal more.

2.75/1(+0%)
(6) Wrath Of Hector 2.75/1, Won 7-runner handicap at Southwell (7.1f, 14/1) 26 days ago. Second and third have gone in since, so he's a big player nudged up just 1 lb.

(10) Flashthelights 12/1, 16/1, improved on previous efforts when fifth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Thurles (16.4f, good to soft) 21 days ago, no extra approaching last. Needs to build on that effort now.

7/1(+0%)
(11) Johanna Yeats 7/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. 9/1, respectable fifth of 16 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16f, heavy) 28 days ago. Fancied to give another good account.

33/1(-32%)
(8) Poppy Rose 33/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Twelfth of 15 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Navan (16f, heavy) 19 days ago. Rates a likely improver now handicapping and worth monitoring in the betting for clues.

16
16/1(+0%)
(1) Lonracha 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden who failed to find any improvement when thirteenth of 25 on handicap hurdle debut at this course (15.4f, heavy, 40/1) 18 days ago. However, that was her first start for 5 months and she may well be sharper now.
12
10th (12) (14/1 +58%) Champagne Izzy
14
14/1(+58%)
(12) Champagne Izzy 14/1, Below form twelfth of 24 in handicap hurdle at this course (15.8f, soft, 40/1) 105 days ago. Booking of Foley a plus.
13
11th (13) (11/1 -47%) Fair Minded
11
11/1(-47%)
(13) Fair Minded 11/1, Hurdles winner who caught the eye without convincing with her finishing efforts in handicaps at Punchestown/Limerick during the winter. Clearly not 100% at this venue in February and she's worth bearing in mind here.

(16) Allez George 66/1, 66/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap hurdle at Limerick (16f, soft) 58 days ago, never on terms. Needs to step up plenty to figure.

80
80/1(+0%)
(17) Django Du Pecos 80/1, Well held all 5 starts over hurdles for John E. Kiely and pulled up on yard/chase debut when last seen in summer 2017. Market should prove a good guide on this belated return to action.

16
16/1(-146%)
(18) Fly De Megaudais 16/1, Looked as good as ever when gaining second career success over fences at Downpatrick (19f) in May. Unseated early on at Wexford (20f) a month later but worth a look back over hurdles on return.

28
28/1(-75%)
(2) Maricruz 28/1, Fair winner at 12f Flat winner. Thrice-raced maiden over hurdles. Seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (12f, 40/1). Switches from Flat to hurdles. Makes handicap hurdle debut.
(2) Not That Fuisse 1.62/1, Useful chaser who made most of good opportunity when off the mark in this sphere at Fakenham (3m) 2 weeks ago, needing to be asked for his effort only late on. Drop in trip will hold no fears and he's a big player.
1

0.91
0.91/1(-10%)
(1) Stratagem 0.91/1, Useful performer who quickly put his Hereford return effort behind him when running out a convincing winner of Ludlow hunter (20f) 8 days ago. Of obvious interest if turning up in the same form here.
4
3rd (4) (5.5/1 +78%) Drakes Well
5.5
5.5/1(+78%)
(4) Drakes Well 5.5/1, Fair and consistent hurdler/chaser for David Bridgwater who got off the mark for present yard in a novices' hunter at Stratford (21f) last month, albeit capitalising on late error from main rival. More needed in this line-up.
5
|PU| (5) (28/1 -56%) Full Trottle
28
28/1(-56%)
(5) Full Trottle 28/1, Prolific winning hunter chaser during first spell for this yard but only one real effort of note in handicap chases during 2020/21 campaign for Jennifer Mason. Returns from 11 months off now and others more persuasive.

12
12/1(+76%)
(1) Ballyrath 12/1, Defied a lengthy absence at big odds when scoring over C&D in January. Pulled up on both subsequent outings, though.
2
3rd (2) (12/1 -41%) Midnight Moss
12
12/1(-41%)
(2) Midnight Moss 12/1, Scored over fences in February 2020 and shaped as if retaining ability at Fontwell on his only outing since (42 days ago). Stable has hit some form and he's well treated, so worth considering.
8
4th (8) (9/1 -13%) Lord Sparky
9
9/1(-13%)
(8) Lord Sparky 9/1, Has been running well at Huntingdon lately, but has carved out a reputation as something of a track specialist there, so hard to know if he'll replicate those efforts here.
7
5th (7) (11/1 +39%) Sharp Response
11
11/1(+39%)
(7) Sharp Response 11/1, One-time useful chaser who has been out of sorts for some time, so hard to make a compelling case for despite a mark that's in freefall.

2.5
2.5/1(-11%)
(5) Templebredin 2.5/1, Showed fair form in hunter chases for Sam Curling last season and, while an 11-month absence is something of a concern, he's joined a shrewd yard, and this is a very winnable race.
4
|U| (4) (4/1 +27%) Frisco Bay
4
4/1(+27%)
(4) Frisco Bay 4/1, Fair hurdles winner who ran best race to date over fences when runner-up at Warwick in December. Hasn't fired on either outing since, but dangerous if allowed his own way.

8.5
8.5/1(-89%)
(6) Here We Have It 8.5/1, Got off the mark in 2m handicap chase at Leicester in February and probably found the race coming too soon when only fifth at Kelso next time. Upped markedly in trip, he may well get back on track.

8.5
8.5/1(+39%)
(9) Definite Wisdom 8.5/1, Dual chase winner but little show this season, including over timber. Laboured third of 5 over fences at Musselburgh last time, so others make more appeal.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Berrahri 18/1, C&D winner. Four wins from 14 runs last year, latest here in December. Back on track when fourth of 9 in handicap at Kempton (11f, 25/1). Ran in void race at Lingfield (Mar 4). May probably prove vulnerable to younger legs.

(7) Gringo D'ainay 12/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Very good third of 14 in novice hurdle at Wexford (16f, heavy, 7/4) 25 days ago. Longer trip should suit, so he's an interesting handicap debutant for all the handicapper has taken no chances.

1.62
1.62/1(+54%)
(7) The Questioner 1.62/1, Showed little in a bumper and first 3 starts over hurdles. Fared much better upped in trip in 1st time cheekpieces at Southwell (24.3f) on handicap debut 10 days ago, demoted to second for causing interference. Leading contender.

16/1(+36%)
(4) Forest Pump 16/1, Twice-raced maiden. Hooded for 1st time, below debut effort when seventh of 23 in maiden hurdle at this course (18.8f, soft, 25/1) 105 days ago. Makes bumper debut.
10
10th (10) (7.5/1 +25%) O'hallorans Castle
7.5
7.5/1(+25%)
(10) O'hallorans Castle 7.5/1, €18,000 3-y-o, Libertarian gelding. Half-brother to fair chaser Kristian Goingwel, stays 23f. Wears tongue strap.
12
11th (12) (25/1 +24%) Nights Of Doyen
25
25/1(+24%)
(12) Nights Of Doyen 25/1, 11/1, offered little when sixth of 8 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 25 days ago.
(6) Veshenskaya 3.5/1, Underwent a wind op prior to showing improved form on her last 2 starts, including when third over C&D 9 days ago. Races from same mark here and isn't ruled out of making the frame again
1
2nd (1) (2.25/1 +10%) King Ferdinand
2.25
2.25/1(+10%)
(1) King Ferdinand 2.25/1, Much improved recently, confirming the promise of his Uttoxeter second with a career-best victory at Huntingdon last time. Looks to be on the right path now and has to be taken seriously.
9
3rd (9) (5.5/1 +21%) Storm Force One
5.5
5.5/1(+21%)
(9) Storm Force One 5.5/1, Placed on last 2 visits to this track, including when third over C&D 9 days ago, though failed to see things out in the latter stages. Cheekpieces go back on.
2
4th (2) (9/1 -125%) World Trip
9
9/1(-125%)
(2) World Trip 9/1, Confirmed previous promise when doubling her hurdles tally in 7-runner handicap at Huntingdon 25 days ago, asserting run-in having been well positioned. Should remain competitive up 5 lb.
10
5th (10) (9/1 +18%) Fame And Hope
9
9/1(+18%)
(10) Fame And Hope 9/1, Finished well after being badly outpaced early at Hexham (23.3f) 2 weeks ago. Unlikely to be able to get away with anything similar in this event but stamina is her strong suit and she has each-way claims.
5
6th (5) (12/1 -9%) Rumble B
12
12/1(-9%)
(5) Rumble B 12/1, Remains a maiden after 19 NH runs but has been seemingly improved for the fitting of tongue strap/visor earlier this year. Ran one of his lesser races at Newcastle last time, but isn't an outsider to fully rule out if able to bounce back.
4
7th (4) (5/1 +29%) Torngat
5
5/1(+29%)
(4) Torngat 5/1, Only beaten 5 lengths when eighth of 9 at Hexham a fortnight ago but he's yet to really threaten to get his head in front and probably needs a couple of his rivals to falter to get off the mark.
3
8th (3) (25/1 -79%) Kilbrew Boy
25
25/1(-79%)
(3) Kilbrew Boy 25/1, Wincanton chase winner last term but operating below his best over hurdles and fences in recent starts, again failing to land a blow when third behind World Trip last time. Mark continues to fall but hard to fancy.
LTO Selection:
17:35 Wetherby Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) Jungle Run 1.25/1, Lightly-raced 3-y-o. 5/2 and blinkered for 1st time, career best when winning 11-runner nursery at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in November, always holding on. Returns with yard going nicely and sound claims from 4 lb higher.
3
2nd (3) (3.5/1 +56%) Henery Hawk
3.5
3.5/1(+56%)
(3) Henery Hawk 3.5/1, Heeraat gelding who offered some promise in trio of novice events at up to 6f during the winter. Rates the type to do better now handicapping and worth noting if strong in the betting.
9
3rd (9) (33/1 +18%) Beloved Of All
33
33/1(+18%)
(9) Beloved Of All 33/1, Offered little in 7 starts as a 2-y-o, beaten 2f out when last of 14 at Yarmouth (6f) in October. Another who can only be watched on return to action.
6
4th (6) (6/1 +40%) Argirl
6
6/1(+40%)
(6) Argirl 6/1, Ardad filly who showed modest form in novice/maiden company last summer but failed to progress in nurseries thereafter at up to 1m. Returns for new yard from career-low mark so another worth monitoring in the betting for clues.
1
5th (1) (12/1 -50%) Theoretical
12
12/1(-50%)
(1) Theoretical 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 150/1, showed more than previously when fourth of 9 in minor event at Southwell (6.1f) 14 days ago, ridden over 2f out and keeping on. Further progress likely now handicapping.
7
6th (7) (9/1 +44%) Sirius White
9
9/1(+44%)
(7) Sirius White 9/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Last of 9 in handicap (25/1) at Wolverhampton (7.2f) in January, driven 3f out and always behind. Another who needs to step up on return from a short break.
4
7th (4) (25/1 -108%) The Embezzler
25
25/1(-108%)
(4) The Embezzler 25/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 12/1, first run since leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis when ninth of 10 in handicap at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 20 days ago, going with little fluency and always behind. Possible he'll strip fitter for that here.
5
8th (5) (33/1 +0%) Golden Romance
33
33/1(+0%)
(5) Golden Romance 33/1, 150/1, eleventh of 12 in handicap at Wolverhampton (7.2f) 23 days ago, taking strong hold and never a threat. Can only be watched at present. Hooded for 1st time.
8
9th (8) (9/1 -100%) Good To Go
9
9/1(-100%)
(8) Good To Go 9/1, Heeraat gelding who ran best race to date when second of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f) in February, headed 1f out but keeping on. Each-way claims again if replicating that effort here.
LTO Selection:
17:45 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 6) 6f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 6 race.
(9) Mawkeb 6.5/1, Maiden who went close on first 2 starts upon joining this yard around the turn of the year. Not disgraced when fifth of 11 in handicap at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 19 days ago and one to bear in mind from career-low mark back in trip with headgear now fitted.
5
2nd (5) (16/1 -14%) Rhubarb Bikini
16
16/1(-14%)
(5) Rhubarb Bikini 16/1, Ungenuine type who is struggling for form at present, again failing to beat a rival when last of 6 at Lingfield (1m) 3 weeks ago. Others make more appeal.
3
3rd (3) (12/1 +25%) Baby Steps
12
12/1(+25%)
(3) Baby Steps 12/1, Losing run is mounting up and went wrong way from respectable return at Wolverhampton (7f) when eighth of 11 in handicap at Southwell (8.1f) 4 weeks ago. Still, his mark has eased further at least.
2
4th (2) (33/1 +0%) Poetic Force
33
33/1(+0%)
(2) Poetic Force 33/1, Narrow winner of 4-runner Lingfield claimer (7f) in February but not in same form when fifth of 6 back in handicap company at that venue (1m) 3 weeks ago. Eased 2 lb since if he can step up again.
8
5th (8) (3.33/1 +5%) Blue Flame
3.33
3.33/1(+5%)
(8) Blue Flame 3.33/1, Low-mileage 5-y-o who opened his account at Newcastle (7f) in December and matched that level when runner-up at Kempton (7f) 5 weeks ago. No reason why he won't give another good account.
1
6th (1) (6/1 -9%) Almaan
6
6/1(-9%)
(1) Almaan 6/1, Landed back-to-back C&D handicaps in January but turned in a rather underwhelming effort when eighth of 11 at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 3 weeks ago. Return to this venue/drop in class a plus at least. Cheekpieces on.
4
7th (4) (4/1 +20%) Elmejor
4
4/1(+20%)
(4) Elmejor 4/1, Added third course success to his tally over 10f in January and not disgraced either start since, fourth of 9 in handicap back here (10f) 6 weeks ago. Good showing not ruled out re-united with David Probert.
7
8th (7) (3.5/1 +0%) Stopnsearch
3.5
3.5/1(+0%)
(7) Stopnsearch 3.5/1, In good form on AW since the turn of the year and ran right up to best only to lose race in stewards' room at Wolverhampton (9.5f) 2 weeks ago having caused interference. Expected to be firmly in the mix again.
6
9th (6) (12/1 -60%) Always Fearless
12
12/1(-60%)
(6) Always Fearless 12/1, Course winner who ended losing run from career-low mark at Lingfield (1m) in January. Respectable in-the-frame efforts have followed, fourth of 7 in a C&D event 7 weeks ago.
LTO Selection:
18:15 Chelmsford Handicap (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(3) Dark Moon Rising 6/1, Beverley maiden winner (7.4f) in June who progressed thereafter in defeat, third of 14 in a York nursery (7.8f) when last seen in October. Type to progress further as a 3-y-o and yard amongst the winners.
5
2nd (5) (2/1 -14%) Harrow
2
2/1(-14%)
(5) Harrow 2/1, Useful colt. Three wins from 7 runs last year. 9/4 and hooded for 1st time, nose second of 7 to Blue Trail in minor event at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago, needing stronger gallop. Entitled to be sharper with that under his belt and respected.
4
3rd (4) (3.5/1 +50%) Find
3.5
3.5/1(+50%)
(4) Find 3.5/1, Fairly useful gelding. Respectable head third of 7 to Blue Trail in minor event (11/1) at Kempton (8f) 29 days ago, albeit getting first run. May find a couple too good again.
2
4th (2) (2.25/1 -50%) Blue Trail
2.25
2.25/1(-50%)
(2) Blue Trail 2.25/1, Teofilo colt who did well to overcome a positional bias when making it 2 wins from 3 starts in a Kempton novice (1m) 4 weeks ago. Well worth his place at this higher level and one to consider.
1
5th (1) (80/1 -100%) Atheby
80
80/1(-100%)
(1) Atheby 80/1, Fairly useful colt. 33/1 and visored for 1st time, seventh of 9 in handicap at Kempton (7f) 5 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. This rates another tough ask.
6
6th (6) (8/1 -14%) Mr Professor
8
8/1(-14%)
(6) Mr Professor 8/1, Useful gelding. Three wins from 8 runs last year. Performed well in trio of starts at Meydan since the turn of the year and not beaten far despite finishing eighth of 9 in French listed race (1m) 12 days ago. Should give another good account.
LTO Selection:
18:45 Chelmsford Stakes (Class 2) 8f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.
(2) Atiyah 6/1, Largely consistent in defeat on tapeta this year, finishing a respectable fourth of 8 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 21 days ago. Makes polytrack debut. One to note.
3
2nd (3) (3/1 -9%) Cuban Breeze
3
3/1(-9%)
(3) Cuban Breeze 3/1, In good form for new yard, winning over C&D in February and adding to tally at Wolverhampton 13 days ago. Even a further 7 lb rise may not stop her in current mood.
8
3rd (8) (3/1 +25%) Dark Side Prince
3
3/1(+25%)
(8) Dark Side Prince 3/1, C&D winner. Six wins from 11 runs last year. Respectable third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (5f) 35 days ago. One to consider.
11
3rd (11) (20/1 +20%) Red Walls
20
20/1(+20%)
(11) Red Walls 20/1, Latest win at Southwell in January. Creditable fourth of 8 in handicap (22/1) at Wolverhampton (6.1f) 5 days ago.
10
5th (10) (40/1 -186%) Shamshon
40
40/1(-186%)
(10) Shamshon 40/1, Three wins from 20 runs last year. Creditable third of 9 in handicap (17/2) at Lingfield (5f, AW) 29 days ago, nearest finish. Another who can't be discounted.
7
6th (7) (14/1 -155%) Expert Opinion
14
14/1(-155%)
(7) Expert Opinion 14/1, C&D winner. 16/1 and tongue strap on first time good second of 12 in handicap at this course (6f) 42 days ago. Thereabouts on that form but the draw could have been kinder.
4
7th (4) (7/1 +18%) Impeach
7
7/1(+18%)
(4) Impeach 7/1, Dual winner over 6f at Lingfield in January. Also a fine second there last month but run of good form came to a halt last time.
1
8th (1) (22/1 +0%) Sir Rodneyredblood
22
22/1(+0%)
(1) Sir Rodneyredblood 22/1, Four-time course winner. Six wins from 24 runs last year. Latest win here in November. 50/1, last of 7 in handicap at Kempton (5f) 19 days ago.

(5) Saaheq 11/1, C&D winner. Three wins from 16 runs last year. Fifth of 7 in handicap at Goodwood (5f, good to firm, 16/1). Off 6 months. Peak fitness has to be taken on trust.

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.
