13:15 Ayr Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

2.5/1 Traprain Law is predicted to do well based on the summary.

A case can be made for several of these, but AFADIL seemed to appreciate a drop in grade when finishing a decent second behind stablemate Blueking D'Oroux at Ascot earlier this month. Paul Nicholls' four-year-old drops in class and it is likely there could be much more in his locker. Forcing Bull makes his handicap debut following an emphatic win over 2m 1f at Sedgefield last month and is feared, while Traprain Law and Shelikesthelights add further spice to the race.

Several to consider in this competitive handicap. SHELIKESTHELIGHTS is officially 5 lb 'well-in' under a penalty following her recent handicap debut success at Southwell where she never looked in any danger, and this unexposed mare earns the vote. Afadil looks a big threat on the back of his efforts at Cheltenham and Ascot the last twice, while Scots Poet is also high on the shortlist. Handicap-debutant Medyaf and progressive types Forcing Bull and Traprain Law are all in with a shout, too.

In-form juvenile hurdler AFADIL is taken to beat his elders and get back on the scoresheet. Shelikesthelights is feared most.

13:30 Newbury Maiden (Class 4) 5f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on these summaries as there are several factors that can influence a horse's performance on the track. However, based on the information provided, 2.75/1 Matters Most and 7.5/1 Succession stand out as they have impressive pedigrees and are half-brothers to other successful horses. 2.75/1 Matters Most is a half-brother to two smart winners and has a strong sire in Advertise, while 7.5/1 Succession is a son of Showcasing and is related to another useful winner. That being said, the cost of the horse and the breeding do not always guarantee success, as other factors such as training, health, and race conditions can also impact a horse's performance.

KALIK cost a pretty penny at the sales last September and he can go some way to repaying that by scoring first time out. A half-brother to multiple Group 3 winner Oscula, he is bred to be smart and just gets the nod ahead of Succession, who hails from a stable that knows their way around young sprinters. American Tale and Dapper Valley have decent pedigrees as well and cannot be ruled out.

A good bunch of juveniles on paper with MATTERS MOST perhaps the pick of them as a 500,000 gns yearling out of a 6f winner at 2 yrs who has already produced a smart sort. Dapper Valley and Kalik also tick plenty of boxes.

Judged solely on sales prices, KALIK and Matters Most stand out. Succession is the suggested third choice.

13:40 Fontwell Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, the horse that is most likely to do well is 11/1 Ilot De L'isle. The horse has had success in both bumpers and hurdles and is making a debut for a new yard, which could potentially unlock more potential. Additionally, the step up in trip is expected to suit the horse's running style.

KANSAS DU BERLAIS was an emphatic winner over an extended 2m1f at this track last month and, even though he has to shoulder a 7lb penalty for that success, he receives a four-year-old allowance and is taken to go in again. Gitche Gumee is feared most for powerful connections, while Ilot De L'isle is another to bear in mind returning from a short break.

KANSAS DU BERLAIS got firmly back on track under a change of tactics when successful here last month and, with the longer trip promising to suit, he's selected to follow up for his in-form stable. Gitche Gumee and French-recruit Ilot de L'Isle look the obvious threats.

Gitche Gumee is respected but preference is for KANSAS DU BERLAIS, who got off the mark with a dominant display here last month.

13:50 Ayr Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 24f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary alone, as each horse has had varying degrees of success and challenges in their recent races. However, some horses to watch out for could include 3/1 Young Buster, who has shown improvement after a recent breathing operation and may have more to offer; 7.5/1 Brandy Mcqueen, who has had multiple successes in staying handicaps this season and bounced back after a poor race at Haydock; and 11/1 Langdale Lane, who showed improved form in February and could be a factor if effective over this distance.

Most of these are stepping into the unknown with regards to their stamina, but it would be folly to suggest in-form maiden hurdle winners Langdale Lane and Young Buster don't have scope to improve for a sterner test. However, TWIN POWER strongly appeals dropping back in class after contesting the EBF Final, and Paul Nicholls' six-year-old could provide the answer. Brandy Mcqueen was a creditable seventh in the Pertemps Final and can also go close.

Most of these are tackling 3m for the first time with ATLANTA BRAVE probably the most likely to advance his form faced with this stiffer test of stamina given how he shaped at Newbury. This is very competitive, with Young Buster, Prairie Wolf and Twin Power a trio of potential threats.

Ffos Las winner YOUNG BUSTER should be suited by the step up in trip on handicap debut and he's the pick ahead of Twin Power.

13:58 Cork Maiden 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Based on the information provided, 4.5/1 Dutch Gold and 5.5/1 Walsingham seem like strong contenders. 4.5/1 Dutch Gold finished second in his last race and is expected to do even better this time around. 5.5/1 Walsingham also had a creditable fourth place finish in his last race and is respected by the analysts. However, it's important to note that there may be other factors that could affect the race outcome, such as the track conditions and form of the horse on the day.

SEA GARDENS showed potential on debut and can turn around form with Walsingham. By Siyouni and out of a Group 3-winning half-sister to Lope De Vega, he was beaten a half-length having headed Walsingham in the closing stages of that Leopardstown race, but ran a little green and should improve. Walsingham is reliable, but is vulnerable to smart types. Well-bred The Black Tiger flopped on debut 16 days ago and while reported to have 'coughed a few times' post-race, he was also reported to have been struck into, so should leave that form well behind. Dutch Gold was capable last year but faces a stiff task on reappearance.

SEA GARDENS shaped well amidst inexperience on debut and, with improvement likely 6 months on, he's preferred to Dutch Gold, who was an encouraging second on his final juvenile outing. Walsingham is another one to consider and The Black Tiger is expected to leave a disappointing behind.

SEA GARDENS was a close 4th in a Leopardstown maiden that's worked out well and his yard can get one ready for their seasonal return

14:05 Newbury Handicap (Class 3) 6f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Based on the summary, some horses that could do well are 6/1 Crazy Luck, 7.5/1 Gisburn, 8/1 Marshal Dan, 8.5/1 Faro De San Juan, 11/1 Zero Carbon, and 16/1 Bernardo O'Reilly. They all have recent good performances and are weighted to have a chance. However, it is difficult to accurately predict the winner without knowing more about the race conditions and each horse's current form leading up to the race.

MARSHAL DAN shaped with plenty of promise on his return at Redcar and he is drawn to attack from stall two in this contest. Heather Main's charge had Zero Carbon (third), Ataser (fourth) and Bernardo O'Reilly (fifth) behind when scoring over C&D back in October and he is taken to uphold that form. Stablemates Bosh and Gisburn are well capable on their day, while Tanmawwy is another to consider with William Buick taking over in the saddle.

Plenty are in with a shout but the vote goes to GISBURN who didn't enjoy the rub of the green despite finishing fourth under similar conditions in a big field at Doncaster and has slipped to a very handy mark. Bernardo O'Reilly also shaped encouragingly when a place behind Richard Hannon's 4yo that day and is next on the list ahead of the returning duo Popmaster and Haymaker.

Several runners are interesting returned to Newbury, most notably CRAZY LUCK who is 2-2 here. Gisburn is second choice.

14:15 Fontwell Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 11/1 Dazzling Dove seems like the most likely horse to do well, as she has made a positive start for new connections and finished second in a handicap hurdle race. 8.5/1 Filanderer may also have potential based on his promising debut but poor recent form. The rest of the horses seem to have either inconsistent or poor recent form, making them less likely to perform well.

Runner-up on his last two starts, MICKYH is fancied to go one better here and could well improve back up in trip. Off the same mark as his latest run over 2m at Plumpton and with jockey Caoilin Quinn knocking 5lb off the gelding's back, he makes plenty of appeal. Dazzling Dove has been eased in distance following a good second over an extended 2m4f at Southwell last month, and is noted, while the class-dropping Fanfaron Dino is another to consider.

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and DAZZLING DOVE is taken to gain a deserved breakthrough success on the back of her good Southwell second. Plumpton runner-up Mickyh is next on the list while Fanfaron Dino is also weighted to have a say if back on his A-game.

Most of these have plenty to prove but DAZZLING DOVE made a bold bid at Southwell last month and is a big player off an unchanged mark.

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well. However, Hugo's New Horse and 4.5/1 Persian Time seem to have positive recent performances and potential for improvement, making them possible contenders.

Idalko Bihoue has some questions to answer having pulled up in the River Don at Doncaster and the Albert Bartlett at Cheltenham, but he can't be dismissed with his sights now lowered. Preference, however, is for HUGOS NEW HORSE, who finished a fine third in the ultra-competitive EBF Final at Sandown in March and a fifth win of the season could be on the cards. Hourvari has improved since making the running and he also merits consideration if dictating the pace once more.

PERSIAN TIME was in trouble a long way out in the Ballymore at the Cheltenham Festival, but is worth another chance back in calmer waters with his yard going well, having finished runner-up to a smart prospect in a good time at Ascot on his penultimate start. The likeable Hugos New Horse looks sure to give his running again, with the promising Hourvari also feared.

Olly Murphy won this last year and HOURVARI earns the vote having impressed the last twice. Hugos New Horse is second choice.

14:33 Cork Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Based on the summary provided, 6.5/1 Patrick Street seems to have a good chance of doing well as they were a neck second in their last race and have a good track record as a course winner. Another horse that may have potential is 10/1 Khafaaq, who has slipped in the weights and has a visor back on for their seasonal return. However, it is important to note that horse racing is unpredictable and any of the horses listed could potentially win on the day.

SKONTONOVSKI has been well beaten on recent runs but is a six-time winner who is ideally suited by a mile, with drying ground a help. His Dundalk form this winter is useful and while well beaten at Bellewstown, was unsuited by heavy ground and has dropped to a workable mark under his 5lb claimer. Asisaid beat Patrick Street to win at Leopardstown, but disappointed badly since and is now tried in first-time cheekpieces, with both horses being well beaten by the selection on one previous clash each. Sondheim is capable at this level, but was well held on his most recent start and most of his form is at seven furlongs. Dual Dundalk winner Leclerc has yet to win on turf and was bogged down on heavy at Leopardstown, but will appreciate drying ground. Pallasmore Lass seemed to stay this mile last September, but is nonetheless an 18-race maiden.

PALLASMORE LASS has made an encouraging start for Paul Flynn and can gain a deserved breakthrough success off an easing mark. Patrick Street is feared most on the back of his recent Leopardstown second, with handily-weighted duo Khafaaq and Asisaid completing the shortlist.

He can be slowly away but PATRICK STREET might be worth chancing after a big run in similar conditions at Leopardstown last time

Based on the information provided, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well. However, some horses with good potential or previous strong performances include 2.75/1 Shining Jewel, 4.5/1 Mistral Star, 6/1 Shiva Shakti, 6/1 Maman Joon, 7/1 Beccara Rose, 12/1 Queen Emma, 22/1 Eastern Empress, and 40/1 Night At Sea. Ultimately, it will depend on various factors such as form, conditions, and jockey performance on the day of the race.

A few of these are entered in the Epsom Oaks including SHIVA SHAKTI, who made a debut full of promise when runner-up to a stablemate at Yarmouth. The Gosdens' daughter of Siyouni is expected to relish this step up in trip and she is narrowly preferred to Shining Jewel, who offered a lot of encouragement when third on her introduction at Nottingham. Closely related to the yard's Dante winner Telecaster, Mistral Star is capable of being in the shake-up, along with Value Added.

A cracking maiden. The Gosden stable has won this 4 times since 2017 so the suggestion is SHIVA SHAKTI who made a very promising start to her career when second at Yarmouth last autumn and is the mount of Frankie Dettori from the stable's 3 runners. Value Added, a very promising second on her course debut last year, Shining Jewel and the selection's stablemate Eastern Empress are others who look to have bright futures, while Queen Emma and Maman Joon are newcomers to moinitor in the betting.

A warm maiden in which the percentage call goes to VALUE ADDED, with Shiva Shakti second choice ahead of Shining Jewel.

14:50 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 3) 22f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

Based on the summary, it is likely that 0.44/1 Hell Red will do well as he has had a successful past in small-field chases and has been recently refreshed after a 6-month absence. While 1.75/1 Ikarak is considered to be fairly useful and has potential to progress, there is no clear indication of him outperforming 0.44/1 Hell Red in this scenario.

With just the five heading to post for this contest, it could pay to side with the grade-dropping HUDSON DE GRUGY, who was a game winner of a premier handicap at Sandown on his latest outing last month. He has gone up 3lb for that success, but that may not be enough to stop him following up here. Ikarak secured a facile success in France when last seen in December and is interesting, along with Hell Red.

A case can be made for all of these but WEWILLGOWITHPLANB easily got off the mark on his first go over fences here for Richard Bandey and now reverts to this sphere after a solid third over hurdles. He looks to have more to offer so gets the vote ahead of recent Sandown scorer Hudson de Grugy, although the returning Hell Red and Milton Harris' new recruit Ikarak need factoring in too.

This looks to lie between WEWILLGOWITHPLANB and Hudson De Grugy, with the former getting a narrow vote.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

It is difficult to make a definite prediction without knowing the odds or other factors, but 3.5/1 Richmond Lake and 3/1 Dubai Days seem to be the strongest contenders based on their recent form and success over hurdles and fences. 6/1 Saint Calvados could also be a potential contender if he can rediscover his form from last season.

RICHMOND LAKE has had a fine start to his chasing career and the step up in trip seemed to bring out the best in him when scoring at Haydock last month. A 5lb rise for that comfortable success could prove lenient and he is narrowly preferred to Baron De Midleton, who arrives on a hat-trick. Bass Rock had been running consistently well until a disappointing effort here last time out and is no forlorn hope.

SAINT CALVADOS hasn't fired this season but he's becoming well handicapped and is down in class, so he could be worth taking a chance on, with improving novice Richmond Lake also respected having won 2 of his last 3 starts. Bass Rock's yard is in better form now and he's not dismissed.

Richmond Lake is progressive but preference is for BASS ROCK on account of his first two chase efforts at the end of last year.

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

Based on the summary, 1/1 Ottilien seems to be the form choice and a strong contender for the race. Term of Endearment also has potential, having finished a clear second in a listed race. 25/1 Star Image and 16/1 Zola Sakura could also make their presence felt, having performed creditably in recent listed races.

OTTILIEN is a high-class recruit for Joseph O'Brien and can give away a 3lb penalty and win. A sister to Group 1 winner Morandi and bought for 600,000 euros last December, her UK and French form is strong and concluded last year with a Group 1 runner-up effort in the Prix de Royallieu. Her lack of a recent run is a concern, but she is ground-versatile and likes this distance. Term Of Endearment was quite progressive last year and seemed to improve at this distance at Naas in October. She holds Moracana, Venice Biennale and Irish Lullaby on previous meetings and can give the selection most to worry about. Annervillle was well beaten in recent runs at Meydan, but finished second in last year's renewal (Venice Biennale fourth) and is race-fit. Star Image and Zola Sakura are closely matched on heavy-ground form last November and while both are ground-versatile, Zola Sakura is race-fit. Icykel steps up from a maiden win.

OTTILIEN signed off for David Menuisier with a good third in the Group 1 Prix de Royallieu at Longchamp so looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to make a winning start for Joseph O'Brien here. Term of Endearment still has few miles on the clock and is next on the list on her return, with Star Image another to consider for place purposes.

Third in a Group 1 on Arc weekend and an expensive purchase subsequently, OTTILIEN can make a winning start for new connections

15:15 Newbury Stakes (Class 2) 10f Race Class Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

It is hard to predict with certainty, but based on the information provided, Adayar seems like the strongest choice as he is already a 1/1 Military Order Brother to Derby and King George VI winner, and has shown potential by making amends quickly after being beaten in his first race. The fact that his yard does well at this time of year further strengthens his chances. However, 4.5/1 Exoplanet also seems like a potential contender as he has a strong pedigree and has previously won a race at Newmarket.

A beaten favourite on both of his starts to date, RAJASTHAN is taken to get off the mark at the third time of asking. He kept on well behind Cicero's Gift here when last seen, with that rival going on to follow up. His debut third behind subsequent Horris Hill winner Knight was no disgrace either, and a step up in trip should really suit the son of Dubawi. Military Order merits respect for the lethal Charlie Appleby/William Buick combination, while others of interest include Newcastle scorer Chesspiece and Exoplanet.

MILITARY ORDER's debut form is strong and he made no mistake at the second attempt, readily off the mark at Newmarket 6 months ago. This longer trip will suit and this brother to Adayar is likely to thrive as a 3yo, so he gets the nod in this fascinating contest. Debut-winner Chesspiece is feared and Exoplanet remains with potential back down in grade.

Most have a similar chance on 2yo form and assessing degrees of promise is not easy, but CHESSPIECE is preferred to Military Order.

2.75/1 Mullinaree seems like the strongest contender based on recent form, equipment change, and only a small increase in weight.

This is a slight drop in class for PEARLY ISLAND and he is taken to stamp his authority under top weight. The Lucy Wadham-trained gelding impressed when he won over course and distance on his penultimate start and, having also previously tasted success under Eddie Edge, who claims 10lb in the plate, there is a lot to like about his chance. Ike Sport is holding his form well and also enters calculations, while Mullinaree is respected too.

The vote goes to IKE SPORT, who has raised his game since returning from a break and there's a good chance that this 5-y-o has more to offer. Mullinaree gained his breakthrough success over C&D last month and is feared most ahead of Fourofakind.

Preference is for the lightly raced 7yo MULLINAREE (nap), who got off the mark with a brave win over C&D last month.

6/1 Jasmiwa is likely to do well as she has a good record in handicaps and recently won at Chepstow. She may be up 6lb in weight but her few miles on the clock suggest she still has potential for success. 8/1 Sabrina and 8.5/1 Bellatrixsa are also worth considering as they have both been in good form recently, with 8/1 Sabrina stepping up to 3m and 8.5/1 Bellatrixsa reverting to hurdling after a spell chasing. The other horses have either been inconsistent or are yet to hit top form this season.

A creditable third in a valuable Grade 2 handicap at Newbury last month, GREAT SNOW should appreciate going back up in trip as she looks to bounce back to winning ways. The six-year-old remains open to improvement and she may have too much for last year's winner Get A Tonic and Jasmiwa, who did it easily at Chepstow last time out. Bellatrixsa and Charm Offensive cannot be ruled out either.

GREAT SNOW took her form up a notch on her handicap debut when third at Newbury last time and with this return to 3m also a plus she can quickly resume winning ways. Jasmiwa is 2-3 since sent handicapping so feared most despite being raised 6 lb by the official assessor. In-form pair Charm Offensive and Sabrina can also have a say in a competitive handicap.

The return to better ground and step up in trip could prompt improvement from EBONELLO and she is the pick ahead of Bellatrixsa.

Based on the information provided, 1.75/1 Nation's Call and 3/1 Sea Legend seem to have the best chances of doing well as they have both placed second in their previous races and have some favorable conditions in their upcoming race (1.75/1 Nation's Call having conceded first run and 3/1 Sea Legend having a tongue strap on for the first time). 11/1 Mr King and 50/1 Firm Belief may also have a shot at improvement as they are both lightly raced and have some positive changes in their upcoming race (such as a tongue strap for 11/1 Mr King and potential improvement for 50/1 Firm Belief).

INTELLOTTO showed promise last year. He was a little short of room on his Curragh debut and then ran well in a smart Punchestown maiden, with plenty of winners and placed-horses finishing behind. Irish Derby-entered, he will be suited by this distance. The third-placed Punchestown horse subsequently beat Sea Legend at Killarney in October and Sea Legend runs in a first-time tongue-tie on reappearance. The well-bred Nation's Call was beaten by a smart winner at Navan, with both finishing well clear of the remainder (Sixpack fourth). He holds Epsom and Irish Derby entries and has a race-fitness advantage. Squire Danagher was well enough held on debut at Gowran but nonetheless showed promise and can improve, while Kingswood ran well in a lesser maiden at Tipperary last year. Mr King runs in a tongue-tie having disappointed on debut.

NATION'S CALL upped his game and found only one too good at Navan on reappearance and a performance of similar merit should be enough to see him open his account. Intellotto and Sea Legend look the main dangers, although Sixpack is open to improvement.

INTELLOTTO was only narrowly denied last time and the Irish Derby entrant should relish this step up in trip

Based on the summary, it is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well. However, some horses to consider are 2.2/1 Novel Legend, 5.5/1 Mostly Sunny, 9/1 Vino Victrix, and 20/1 Star Caliber. 2.2/1 Novel Legend has shown improvement in handicaps and remains unexposed at the current trip. 5.5/1 Mostly Sunny has shown promise with blinkers enlisted and stamina being his forte. 9/1 Vino Victrix enjoyed a productive 2022 campaign and has shown good form in runner-up finishes in big races. 20/1 Star Caliber was a good third in a valuable Chester handicap and resumes on a workable mark for new connections.

NOVEL LEGEND made a successful return to action when winning at Kempton last month and the James Fanshawe-trained son of Nathaniel, who remains open to plenty of improvement over marathon trips, is expected to continue his progression and repeat the dose. Aztec Empire is similarly unexposed and must enter calculations for his in-form yard. Vino Victrix, who struck the woodwork in last year's Cesarewitch from 3lb lower, should not be far away either.

NOVEL LEGEND picked up where he left off last term by landing a 2m Kempton handicap on his reappearance and, though now 4 lb higher in a stronger race, he looks the way to go with further progress likely at this trip. There will be a question mark surrounding Vino Victrix should the word 'soft' appear in the going description, as seems likely, but such conditions will be of no concern to the likes of Mostly Sunny, Secret Shadow and Star Caliber, and they are feared most in that order.

3/1 The Wise Traveller is likely to do well based on the summary.

Dear Ralphy had the race at his mercy when he stumbled and fell after the final obstacle at Plumpton last time, and can be given another chance. However, preference is for ROYAL LAKE, who showed a big improvement after he was reportedly treated for stomach ulcers before winning over 2m6f here last month. A 4lb higher mark isn't insurmountable. The Wise Traveller is another to consider.

ROYAL LAKE cashed in on a much-reduced mark when staying on well to run down an upwardly-mobile youngster here 17 days ago, so he makes plenty of appeal from only 4 lb higher. Dear Ralphy was set to make a winning handicap debut before falling 2 out at Plumpton recently and is an obvious threat from the same mark if none the worse. Handicap-debutante For Gina is another to bear in mind after catching the eye on her most recent outing.

An interesting race in which the vote goes to DEAR RALPHY, who was travelling well in a clear lead when he fell two out at Plumpton.

STUZZIKINI can bounce back here after a disappointing effort last time. The Champs Elysees gelding had been runner-up twice before a below-par effort when pulling up at Down Royal on St Patrick's Day. It was reported that he never travelled that day and better ground now may suit. Je T'ai Porte didn't run too badly when a staying-on sixth at Naas last time and, in lesser company now, she could play a bigger part. Alhaajeb is another Flat winner who may progress from his spin over hurdles at Fontwell last November. He was well beaten then but the experience should stand to him.

STUZZIKINI has to bounce back from a heavy defeat at Down Royal a month ago but he couldn't be in better hands and he sets the clear standard if he is back on his game. Port Nelson and Chequer Square can fight it out for minor honours.

A chance is taken on PORT NELSON to improve enough from his solid Ballinrobe comeback run last week to score.

It is difficult to make a definitive prediction based on this summary as each horse has its strengths and weaknesses. However, 1.75/1 Snowy Clouds and 2.5/1 One Mill Harbour seem to have strong recent form and could be contenders. 7/1 Champ De Gane also has potential, despite a recent setback at Carlisle.

Snowy Clouds hasn't done much wrong since going over fences and has a penalty after making it three from four at Market Rasen. There is a chance he could be take on for the lead by Escapeandevade, which may set things up for ONE MILL HARBOUR, who made the best possible start to his chasing career at Newcastle and is open to any amount of improvement. Give Great Heart'Jac and Grand Voyage plenty of thought too.

SNOWY CLOUDS is really thriving at the moment and can register his fourth success over fences. Champ de Gane and One Mill Harbour may provide the chief threat.

Having bolted up at Market Rasen 12 days ago, SNOWY CLOUDS (nap) is well treated under a 7lb penalty and can make it 4-5 over fences.

16:18 Cork Stakes 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Based solely on the summary provided, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will do well. However, 2/1 Bertinelli seems to have a strong potential with one win out of two races and coming from a top stable. 3.5/1 Lark In The Mornin is also worth watching as they won their debut race and are expected to improve.

LARK IN THE MORNIN shaped with promise when winning on debut and can step forward. From a good German pedigree and out of a half-sister to a German Derby winner, he beat a subsequent dual winner at Listowel and should improve considerably. Alder was Group 2-placed last year and while a smart type, the selection is open to more improvement. Bertinelli showed promise on debut and while workmanlike in winning at Dundalk, has an excellent pedigree and should improve with racing. Serious Challenge is held by Alder on Leopardstown form while Starry Heavens, out of an unraced half-sister to Alpha Centauri, was well held at Group 3 level last October and faces a tough task.

ALDER quicky developed into a very useful performer last year and sets a decent standard for the rest to aim at. Last autumn's maiden winners Bertinelli and Lark In The Morning surely have more to offer and can fight it out for minor honours.

Both Bertinelli and Lark In The Mornin are open to improvement but ALDER (nap), third in a Group 2 last term, sets the bar high

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 2 race.

Based on the summary, 2/1 Tafreej and 5.5/1 Little Edi seem to be the strongest contenders for success. 2/1 Tafreej has already won at the course and is expected to improve on his return, while 5.5/1 Little Edi has shown improved form recently and finished second in a handicap race over the same course and distance just 23 days ago. 4.5/1 Tiriac and 5/1 Lord Uhtred also have potential and warrant consideration, but 9/1 Dark Thirty and 9/1 Scholarship may not be as competitive. 12/1 Hectic and 25/1 Captain Cuddles are both making their handicap debut and may be less likely to win.

An open event in which there are plenty of potential improvers, so only a tentative vote can go to CAPTAIN CUDDLES. He contested a couple of warm events before notching up his breakthrough victory at Salisbury last summer, and it would be no surprise were he to prove better than an opening mark of 85. Top-weight Caragio demands respect on his handicap bow, having finished a creditable fourth in the Horris Hill here when last seen. Tafreej, who should relish a step up in trip, must not be underestimated, with Lord Uhtred and Dark Thirty others to note.

This can go to TAFREEJ, who looks a good prospect for handicaps this season, particularly now stepped up in trip. Little Edi and Lord Uhtred head the list of dangers.

16:30 Fontwell Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, 3.33/1 Jigginstown King seems to be the most promising contender. He ran his best race yet in a maiden hurdle in February, and despite a lackluster performance over fences a month later, he's dropped in weight and is back down in trip. The other horses have either been out of form or have yet to show much potential in this sphere.

Jigginstown King has been cut some slack by the handicapper having been dropped 5lb for his fourth-placed finish over 3m1f at Hereford last month, and he's not discounted on this drop in distance. A chance, however, is taken on handicap/chase debutant DOCTOR FOLEY. Anthony Honeyball's gelding starts off in this sphere off a low mark and may come alive now tackling the larger obstacles. Who Is That makes most appeal of the remainder.

Several of these arrive with something to prove but JIGGINSTOWN KING shaped better than the distance beaten suggested at Hereford 4 weeks ago so, having been dropped 5 lb on the back of that effort, Oliver Signy's charge gets the tentative nod. Doctor Foley was placed in an Irish point so he may emerge as the main danger on chasing debut, ahead of Who Is That.

It might be worth siding with the unexposed DOCTOR FOLEY, who looks a possible improver upped to this trip on his handicap/chase debut.

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

5.5/1 Fruit Blossom seems like a strong contender, having recently placed well in a handicap hurdle on heavy ground. 8/1 Betty Dutton and 8.5/1 Presenting Doyen also have potential, as they are both lightly-raced maidens making their handicap hurdle debut. However, as a language model AI, my predictions may not match the actual outcome and should be used for informational purposes only.

FEET OF A DANCER could be nicely treated now trying handicap company. The Authorized filly is still unexposed on her fourth career outing and stepped forward nicely to score at Wexford last time. That form has received a boost since, with the third horse, All About Lucy, scoring at Cork recently. Scenic Look tops the weights and takes a drop in class after a good run in a decent mares' contest at Limerick last month. She finished off well then behind Deeply Superficial to grab second late on and appeared to run above her handicap mark. Parvos has been running consistently and it was another solid effort to finish third to Nine Graces at Ballinrobe a week ago. She looks like place material again.

Plenty of depth to this handicap with SCENIC LOOK just about the most persuasive option having run a cracker from unfavourable terms in a minor event a month ago. Betty Dutton, Feet of A Dancer and Jane Wilde are a trio of potential threats.

SCENIC LOOK seemed to run above herself in a Limerick conditions hurdle last time and can score back to this grade.

16:40 Bath Handicap (Class 5) 14f Race Class Flow

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

From the summary, it is difficult to predict which horse will do well as each one has their own strengths and weaknesses. However, some horses with recent good performances include 3.33/1 John Betjeman, 5/1 Atalanta Breeze, and 6/1 Tralee Hills. 10/1 Fred Bear also has a recent win on the flat and is back down in grade. 18/1 Zillion has been running respectably in recent races and is now below his last winning mark. Overall, it may be best to gather more information and consult with a horse racing expert before making any predictions.

ATALANTA BREEZE boasts an excellent record on the turf (3-5) and he might be worth chancing in an open event. He's 4lb above his last winning mark, which came at Brighton in September. The lightly-raced seven-year-old has the ability to go well when fresh and this might be the right time to catch him. Fred Bear must enter calculations following his success in the Bath Summer Series Final run at Ffos Las, while John Betjeman is another to consider.

JOHN BETJEMAN has been in the form of his life over hurdles, finishing in the frame on his last 4 starts, and he looks to be on a good mark back on the Flat. The 7-y-o could be ready to gain a first success on the level, so he is taken to get the better of Tralee Hills who can go well back up in trip. Tibbie Dunbar completes the shortlist.

The vote goes to TRALEE HILLS, who is well treated on his best form last year and was an eyecatcher at Pontefract ten days ago.

The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.

It's difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well based on this summary. However, 11/1 Atacanter seems to have shown some improvement in recent races and retains potential for further progress. 11/1 Lepashe also seems to be going the right way over hurdles and could be a contender. Shadow In The Sky is unexposed in handicap company and could also be worth considering.

DON HOLLOW was too bad to be true when a well-beaten seventh on his handicap debut at Kempton, but Dan Skelton's charge could regain the winning thread now up in distance. Quick Draw has questions to answer having pulled up over fences at the same meeting, although he won his two races prior to that. He may have been freshened up by a small break, while Milan Bridge should also appreciate a return to hurdles and improvement from him isn't out of the question.

MILAN BRIDGE has struggled over fences lately but his hurdle record can't be knocked and he might prove the answer to this competitive finale. Atacanter, Lepashe and recent Wetherby scorer City Derby also make the shortlist.

This could go to the Irish challenger ATACANTER, who has shaped with plenty of promise in his first two handicaps.

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

Based on the summary provided, 4/1 Dubawi Spectre appears to be the most likely to do well, having previously demonstrated a creditable second place in a recent handicap race. 4.5/1 Matt Connor also shows promise, having achieved a very good third place in a recent handicap race. The remaining horses have been inconsistent in their past performances or lack sufficient information to make a reliable prediction.

DUBAWI SPECTRE is a six-race maiden, but he has form and bumped into a well-handicapped winner in February. By Dubawi and out of a Group 3 winner, the winner of his Dundalk run is now rated 9lb higher and he seemed to stay 1m2f. Evening's Empire beat the selection at Listowel last September but while race-fit, doesn't appear as progressive. Matt Connor ran well from his rating at Dundalk recently and further progression is possible at this trip. Givemefive may have been bogged down on heavy ground when well backed at Bellewstown but has plenty to prove from 1lb lower and without his rider's 10lb claim, running in cheekpieces. Eastern Legend and Union Flag have some form in smart maidens and debut in handicaps, while Western Cape was third in a recent claimer.

This represents a good opportunity for DUBAWI SPECTRE, who performed with credit in 2 starts at Dundalk earlier this year, latterly just touched off on his first attempt at this trip. A 2 lb nudge for that near miss looks fair and he makes plenty of appeal. Matt Connor left his 2-y-o form behind when a close third on his handicap bow over a mile on return at Dundalk and shapes as though this trip is just what he wants. He is feared most ahead of potential improver Union Flag.

It was a career best from MATT CONNOR on his handicap debut last time and he shaped like he may improve again for this longer trip

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

It is difficult to predict which of these fillies will do well without more information, as their potential success will depend on a variety of factors such as training, form, and competition. However, based solely on breeding, the 3.2/1 Fakhama Kingman filly and the 6/1 Valtellina Caravaggio filly appear to have promising pedigrees.

A full-sister to Group 3 winner Light Refrain, GENTLE LIGHT can make a successful start to her racing career. Her dam was a Listed winner over C&D, so the Sir Michael Stoute-trained daughter of Frankel is certainly bred to be good. Mother Margaret is well related and can give the selection plenty to think about, while Fakhama is a half-sister to the stable's classy handicapper Mujtaba. Laura's Breeze and Just A Notion made six-figure sums and warrant consideration too.

The market should provide plenty of clues in this field of unraced fillies, with FAKHAMA making the most appeal on pedigree being by Kingman and out of a dual Grade 1 winner in South Africa. Gentle Light is another likely type being a sister to the smart Light Refrain, while Mother Margaret is another with an appealing pedigree.

The best options may be FAKHAMA for William Haggas and Gentle Light for Sir Michael Stoute.

Based on the summary, 0.91/1 Pure Theatre seems to be the most promising horse, having finished second in its previous novice race and with the potential to build on that performance. 5.5/1 Hey Day Baby also has potential, having been purchased for a high price and with good prospects in hurdling. 9/1 Luna Run, with a strong pedigree, is a horse to note, but it is unclear how it will perform on its debut. The rest of the horses seem to have shown little promise or have not performed well in previous races.

A highly encouraging second on her hurdling debut at Chepstow, PURE THEATRE must hold every chance of getting off the mark with plenty of improvement expected. Better was expected of point-to-point winner Hey Day Baby on her Rules debut at Southwell but she could step forward, although Asian Spice may provide the chief threat after occupying the runner-up berth over C&D last month.

PURE THEATRE arrives on the back of an encouraging debut at Chepstow and can get off the mark in the opener. Hurdling-debutantes Luna Run and Hey Day Baby may provide the chief threat.

Anthony Honeyball's PURE THEATRE may only need a repeat of her second at Chepstow to take this uncompetitive opener.

It is likely that 0.29/1 Secret Squirrel will do well based on the summary provided.

There was a lot to like about All Authorized's debut win over C&D earlier in the month and Gary Moore's gelding isn't taken lightly. SECRET SQUIRREL, however, just shades the vote. The son of Stimulation made his racecourse bow over an extended 2m at Taunton and had the race in the bag a long way out. He looks capable of coping with this drop in trip. King William Rufus likely has more to offer and can't be dismissed, while any market support for Solstice Saint would be interesting.

SECRET SQUIRREL looked above average when landing a race at Taunton first time up and is marginally preferred to All Authorized, who also bids to defend an unbeaten record. King William Rufus is also a serious player.

An interesting race in which Taunton winner SECRET SQUIRREL gets the vote ahead of All Authorized and King William Rufus.

Based on the summary, 3.2/1 Fameaftertheglory looks like a strong contender as a fairly useful hurdler who has made the frame in each of his last four starts, with his latest being a second place finish in a novice hurdle at Clonmel. The addition of cheekpieces for the first time could give him an extra boost. Additionally, 20/1 Ostend and Merits may be other potential contenders based on their recent performances in novice hurdles.

ZAIDI can strike here after a fine run to finish second on his hurdling debut at Fairyhouse over Easter. The Born To Sea gelding was an impressive bumper winner at Thurles last month and went off favourite to open his account over timber first time up. He had to settle for second behind Canal End that day, but a similar effort should be enough to get his head in front again now. Fameaftertheglory is becoming a frustrating sort and has had plenty of chances, but he chased home Feu Du Bresil at Clonmel recently and is sure to be thereabouts again. Ostend was no match for easy winner Parmenion at Leopardstown early last month, but it was still a promising effort against a horse who was subsequently Grade 2-placed and he could get involved for the minor honours again.

This can go to ZAIDI, who made an encouraging start over timber at Fairyhouse earlier this month and remains open to improvement. Fameaftertheglory and Skradin rate the principal dangers.

ZAIDI(nap) ran a fine race at Fairyhouse on hurdling debut and can improve enough to score.

6.5/1 Jax Edge has the most promising recent form, having won a nursery debut in August, and could be capable of getting involved if ready to go after 7 months off.

It often pays to adopt a good early position over sprint distances here and, out of stall one, that should be the case for TAMANGO SANDS. The gelded son of Footstepsinthesand finished down the field on his three runs so far and, though he is bred to appreciate further, forecast ground conditions could play to his strengths on this handicap bow. A narrow winner at Chepstow when last seen, Jax Edge must be considered along with Winnaretta.

After an encouraging reappearance, TALAMANCA had a wide trip at Chelmsford 20 days ago so he can leave his latest effort behind and return to winning ways back down in grade. Jax Edge could be the main danger having made a successful nursery debut when last seen, while River Naver is an interesting contender on her handicap bow.

Three from three in 6f turf nurseries last summer, TALAMANCA gets the nod under Billy Loughnane. Jax Edge is next best.

Based on the summary, 12/1 Cold Steel and 12/1 Giladah are the most promising horses. 12/1 Cold Steel has two wins and a good performance in his latest race despite being blocked, while 12/1 Giladah has a good track record with three wins and a course victory. However, other horses such as 2.5/1 Vellner and 3.5/1 Mashhoor cannot be completely ruled out, as they have shown some potential in their previous races.

SMOOTH TOM finished behind Timourid and New Hill at Leopardstown but might turn the form around, having encountered traffic. Suited by conditions, the selection is 2lb worse off with Timourid (whose rider claims 5lb) and 3lb better off with New Hill, but with a smooth passage, could beat both. Mashhoor was probably unsuited by testing conditions in the Lincoln and will appreciate both drying ground and this extra distance. Cold Steel met some trouble in-running at Dundalk recently and while a dual all-weather winner, could be suited by reverting to the turf, with further progression possible. Giladah finished sixth in a Hanover Listed race in October and has claims on her best form, which was over slightly shorter. Vellner debuts in handicaps but is long absent and reappears in a first-time tongue-tie. Top-weight Sionnach Eile reappears over a distance which is short of his best.

COLD STEEL didn't enjoy the best of runs when sixth of 12 back from a break at Dundalk last month and, granted better luck here, he could prove a tough nut to crack off the same mark returned to turf. Mashhoor has contested two ultra-competitive handicaps subsequent to winning a fairly valuable one at the Curragh last spring and he looks dangerous, while Timourid was a good second on his reappearance at Leopardstown and also has claims, along with Giladah and handicap debutant Vellner.

Competitive stuff but perhaps TIMOURID can confirm Leopardstown form with New Hill and Smooth Tom and score under Jamie Powell

Additionally, her dam's third-place finish in the 1000 Guineas suggests a good level of ability. - 10/1 (9) Tuki Tuki: This filly is a half-sister to two winners and her dam was a winner up to 1 1/8 miles. This suggests an ability to stay at longer distances. - 12/1 (2) Dalrymple: This filly is a half-sister to three winners, including a very

Sir Michael Stoute's team is off to a flyer and this daughter of Invincible Spirit can do the same.

20/1 (9) Atlantic Fleet seems like the horse with the most potential based on the summary. The horse showed promise in a Chepstow bumper and has not been knocked about when switched to hurdling. The summary also suggests that the horse is the type to step up a lot now hurdling.

ANY BISCUITS got off the mark in comfortable fashion at Market Rasen last month and the form of that race has been well franked, with the second and third scoring since. As long as he handles the better ground, Harry Derham's charge should have too much for last-start Taunton runner-up Callisto's King, as well as Getaway Tom, who ran with credit on his handicap debut at Plumpton. Others to note include Dom Bosco, Kingfast and Professor Calculus.

ANY BISCUITS landed a few bets fitted with a tongue tie when making his second handicap start a winning one at Market Rasen last month, and while this is a deeper race, he may well be up to the job. Callisto's King and Blue Anchor are a couple of potential improvers for successful yards.

5/1 Merry Moves seems to be the strongest contender based on their recent form and performance in a handicap hurdle in heavy conditions at Limerick. They also have experience over the longer distance compared to the other horses. 33/1 Drimsree Lad and 1.88/1 Winnie Woodnutt may also have a chance based on their recent performances. However, the others seem to have limited appeal or require significant improvement to be in the running.

Stepping up in trip now should suit three-time point-to-point winner WINNIE WOODNUTT. The Kalanisi mare won between the flags at Borris House early last month and ran really well on her return to the racecourse when third at Naas just over three weeks ago. That was over two miles and going up to three now could bring improvement. Cafe Del Mar was well beaten when sixth at Tramore just five days ago, but should appreciate the better going now and it would be no surprise if she got a lot closer. Hockworthy Flyer showed some decent form last season and could get involved on her return to action. The Yeats mare may appreciate stepping up in trip.

ELLE DORADO ROCK arrives on back of a career-best effort on the Flat and remains open to improvement over hurdles. He gets the nod. Merry Moves and Winnie Woodnutt head the list of dangers.

Based on the summary provided, it is difficult to accurately predict which filly will do well as it depends on many factors such as training, form, and jockey. However, some key contenders based on their breeding and past performances of their half-siblings include 2/1 (7) Heed The Call, 3.33/1 (4) Juniper Berries, and 7.5/1 (5) Mimi Kakushi. Other factors such as market clues and the reputation of the yard and owners should also be taken into consideration.

George Boughey is no stranger to success in these types of races, and his representative, MIMI KAKUSHI, edges the verdict. Being a half-sister to Wild Place, who ran to a decent level over 6f in the UAE, suggests the daughter of Galileo Gold will not be short of speed and she is, perhaps crucially, drawn low. That said, Archie Watson has also done extremely well with his juveniles over the years, so Heed The Call must be feared. Damia completes the shortlist.

HEED THE CALL makes plenty of appeal on paper and represents a trainer who has won with both of his juvenile runners so far this year. The daughter of Soldier's Call is taken to provide the yard with another winning newcomer, though Mimi Kakushi is respected as George Boughey's first 2-y-o runner of the season. Dublin's Charm also merits consideration.

Little to go on here but Archie Watson has made a typically good start with his 2yos and HEED THE CALL is another likely looking type.

GABRIEL'S GETAWAY has had an excellent beginning to his chasing career and going back up in trip should not inconvenience him as he attempts to bring up the hat-trick. Ground conditions are also in his favour and it may be too much of an ask for the veteran Paddy's Poem to beat this progressive type, despite a determined success at Plumpton last month. Rakhine State has yet to put it together over fences, but remains a capable sort.

1.1/1 (4) Happy D'ex is predicted to do well based on the summary.

This looks like a good opportunity for HAPPY D'EX to gain a deserved success over fences. The Saddler Maker mare has been running against some decent rivals over the winter and has been placed on all three previous chase starts. Most recently, she chased home Time To Rocco at Thurles last month and a similar effort should be enough to get her head in front now. Bay Ambition has plenty of experience over fences and should be thereabouts. She was a faller last time, when still involved for the places, having run well to finish third at Clonmel previously. Choice Of Words was well beaten on her chase debut at Thurles, when behind Happy D'ex, but may improve from that experience and could get closer now.

This looks a good opportunity for Gordon Elliott's HAPPY D'EX to get off the mark over fences. Bay Ambition looks the chief threat if none the worse for her recent fall at Clonmel. It's too soon to suggest Choice of Words won't replicate her hurdle form over fences and she may prove best of the rest.

However, it is important to note that in horse racing, anything can happen and surprises can occur, so it is crucial to consider all the factors and not rely solely on predictions.

Denied by a fairly narrow margin in the Prix de l'Abbaye at Longchamp in October, WHITE LAVENDER makes a lot of appeal for powerful connections and is fancied to make a winning return to action. She won this contest last year and the five-year-old is more than entitled to make it back-to-back victories. Others of interest include the grade-dropping Happy Romance, who finished sixth in the Al Quoz Sprint at Meydan, and Listed scorer Are We Dreaming, who makes her debut for Ollie Sangster.

WHITE LAVENDER made a winning reappearance in this race last season and ended the campaign with a close second in the Prix de l'Abbaye de Longchamp, so has obvious claims. Happy Romance often competes at a higher level than this so rates the biggest threat ahead of Fast Response.

Successful first time out as a 3yo and in this race last spring, WHITE LAVENDER (nap) is the one to beat. Get Ahead is second best.

18:35 Exeter Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 23f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well based on this summary, as most of the horses have inconsistent form or are facing challenges such as returning from a break, trying new equipment or stepping up in distance. However, 2.5/1 (1) Roger Rarebit and 6.5/1 (3) Puddlesinthepark both have recent wins and placements that suggest they could be in the running, while 16/1 (5) Karakoram has proven stamina and could bounce back from a recent poor run.

ROGER RAREBIT lost little in defeat when finding only the progressive White Rhino too good at Southwell in February and despite being 8lb higher in the handicap, Tom Lacey's gelding looks capable of more in this sphere. Barrowmount was running a much-improved race until hitting the deck at Taunton last month and a similar bid could see him involved. Puddlesinthepark may appreciate this return to quicker ground and is another who merits consideration.

In a race where few arrive with compelling claims ROGER RAREBIT makes obvious appeal at the top of the weights. Puddlesinthepark is another who has at least shown he can win in handicap company and is a possible threat. Fergal O'Brien handicap newcomer Student Chap is also of some interest, particularly if the betting speaks in his favour.

A very open, low-grade handicap. WHENITRAINSITPOURS is well worth a go over this longer trip.

18:40 Kilbeggan Handicap Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

It is difficult to predict which horse will do well without more information such as their past performances in similar races and their current form. However, some horses to consider as potential contenders based on the summary are 2.5/1 (7) Huntingtown Fair, 5.5/1 (3) Arctic Ambition, 7/1 (2) Oscer Romero, and 10/1 (8) The Connector.

GALI FLIGHT may be able to gain an overdue win. The French-bred has been placed nine times and has run well on both outings over fences this season. He seems versatile ground-wise and Niall Moore takes 7lb off his back again, which helps as he was due to carry top weight on his first start in handicap company over fences. Oscer Romero was a game winner at Wexford three weeks ago in heavy ground. He does go on better, but had a tough enough race last time and may find this tougher after a 5lb rise. Arctic Ambition ran well when fourth on his return over timber at Navan in February. His form over fences is stronger and he could play a big part in this.

ARCTIC AMBITION got back on track returned to hurdling when fourth in a big field at Navan and gets the vote back over fences. Gali Flight, Huntingtown and Oscer Romero complete the shortlist.

Preference is for HUNTINGTOWN, a winner here over hurdles this time last year and fresh from a promising comeback run

18:55 Bath Stakes (Class 5) 8f Race Class Flow

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

4.5/1 (8) All Blues is the most promising based on their potential for progress and the eye-catching jokey booking.

Milteye made a promising start to his racing career when finishing a fair second over 7f at Newmarket on his racecourse debut last October. The son of Cable Bay is fancied to progress from that display, but LITTLE HELEN did well to finish second having been slowly away over course and distance earlier this month and is entitled to break her maiden here. The unraced Goldsborough and Glory Sky are others to bear in mind.

MILTEYE made an encouraging start when runner-up in a back-end Newmarket novice last season and, with further improvement on the cards, Jack Channon's colt is fancied to go one better on reappearance. Irish-raider All Blues could emerge as the main threat with the booking of top claimer Billy Loughnane catching the eye, with newcomer Glory Sky third on the list.

Irish raider All Blues is considered, but MILTEYE shaped nicely on his Newmarket debut last autumn and is the one to beat.

19:05 Exeter Handicap Chase (Class 5) 18f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, the horse that is likely to do well is 8.5/1 (6) Poet's Reflection, who had a sound start to their chase career and was second in a handicap at Taunton recently. They are expected to be competitive if they continue to show similar form in this race.

BEGIN THE LUCK came good at the second of time asking over fences at Newton Abbot recently and he could make light work of a 4lb rise. Poet's Reflection offered something to work with when runner-up on her first attempt at the larger obstacles at Taunton and Linda Blackford's mare is feared most. Chase debutant Greatest Star will need to jump with more fluency in order to succeed in this sphere, but he arrives in fair form and is another to note.

In a race where few arrive with compelling claims a chance is taken on BRAVEHEART, who has had wind surgery since last seen, reviving back at the scene of his win in the autumn. Poet's Reflection will be a threat if reproducing the form he showed at Taunton last time. Recent Newton Abbot scorer Begin The Luck is another to consider.

A chance is taken on chase debutant GREATEST STAR who ran his best race yet for his new yard at Sandown last time.

19:10 Kilbeggan Maiden Chase 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

4/1 (6) Magheralin Mick is the most promising from this summary, as it has won over hurdles and had a respectable fourth place finish in its debut over fences. It is also open to progress, which suggests it has room for improvement.

SLANE HILL is a chasing type and may be able to make a winning start over the larger obstacles. The Shantou gelding won over timber at Naas in December and Barry Connell said then that he wouldn't stay over hurdles too long. This looks a nice starting point over fences. Bodhisattva was one of the higher rated of these over hurdles and has to be respected now switching to fences. The Leading Light gelding won a decent maiden hurdle at Navan last year and has run some solid races in handicaps since. Clondaw Hollow didn't make much impression when third behind a couple of smart sorts in Bronn and Grandero Bello on his chase debut at Fairyhouse. He could get closer now in this company.

CLONDAW HOLLOW faced a stiff task on his chase bow at Fairyhouse but showed enough to make him a big player in this. Magheralin Mick offered something to work on when fourth on his chase bow/return at Clonmel 2 weeks ago and is a potential threat, while Slane Hill and Bodhisattva can go well if taking to this sphere at the first attempt.

A very open-looking beginners chase in which SLANE HILL could be up to making a successful transition to fences if handling the ground

19:25 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 8f Race Class Flow

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

5/1 (9) Dreams Delivered is predicted to do well based on the fact that it had its best performance of the season in its last outing and is expected to remain competitive back on turf, with cheekpieces on for the first time.

DREAMS DELIVERED has been well supported several times recently and underlined why with a determined effort to win at Southwell last time. The combination of a return to this trip and the fitting of cheekpieces unlocked the potential from a lenient mark and, from just 3lb higher, Mick Appleby's gelding could well follow up. Always Fearless also lurks on a handy rating and looks the chief danger, while Compere is also of interest back on turf.

Cases can be made for several, but HAVANA GOLDRUSH bounced back to form when runner-up at Wolverhampton just under a fortnight ago and, now operating from a 5 lb lower turf mark, Stan Moore's charge gets the verdict to notch his third career success. Always Fearless, Dreams Delivered and Compere are just a handful of potential dangers.

Dreams Delivered should go well again but the vote goes to MY AMBITION, whose win last summer came off the back of a similar break.

19:35 Exeter Hunter Chase (Class 5) 24f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the summary, it is difficult to confidently predict which horse will do well. However, some horses that stand out as potential contenders are: 2.5/1 (6) Quintin's Man, 2.5/1 (9) Walkin Out, 5/1 (7) Reflex Action, 8/1 (5) Liberty Rock, and 33/1 (8) Honest Opinion. The others may not have as strong a chance based on their recent form or lack of market clues. Ultimately, it will depend on factors such as the race conditions, the jockey's performance, and how the horses handle the course on the day of the race.

Dean Summersby and Darren Edwards teamed up to win this last year and are fancied to do so once again with LIBERTY ROCK. A three-time winner in the point-to-point sphere, the seven-year-old should have no issues with the forecast ground conditions and looks to hold every chance for his local trainer. Stablemate Honest Opinion merits the utmost respect, as does Quintin's Man, who arrives in good heart having landed back-to-back successes between the flags recently.

QUINTIN'S MAN has enjoyed plenty of success in points and could be the way to go in a potentially competitive event. Liberty Rock and Reflex Action, also multiple winners between the flags, should be on the premises.

A bit more versatility as regards ground gains WALKIN OUT slight preference over fellow last-time Trebudannon scorer Quintin's Man.

19:55 Bath Handicap (Class 6) 12f Race Class Flow

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

Based on the information provided, 5.5/1 (12) Pak Army seems like a strong contender as they have shown recent improvement and won their last race in dominant fashion. 12/1 (3) Uther Pendragon and 3.5/1 (2) Sociologist Eleven also have respectable recent performances and could potentially do well. Other horses such as 6.5/1 (7) Pittsburg and 7/1 (1) Blue Hero have shown promise but may be slightly less likely to win. 22/1 (13) Molliana and 33/1 (9) Team Endeavour have not shown recent success and are unlikely to perform well in this race.

SOCIOLOGIST wasn't beaten far on his only previous attempt over C&D and is likely to take prominence in a race of this nature. The gelding is 2lb higher than his last winning mark on turf and, with Hollie Doyle booked for the ride, there are solid reasons to expect another bold showing. It's How We Roll has proven to be effective here and is feared most, although Blue Hero also enters calculations as a course specialist.

While PAK ARMY didn't show much in a handful of appearances in this sphere for Eoin Doyle in Ireland last year, he resumes on a potentially handy mark judged on his recent, wide-margin hurdles success. Next on the list is Pittsburg, who did well under the circumstances at Lingfield last time and he promises to be suited by this stiffer test. Uther Pendragon is best of the rest.

Back on turf and with Billy Loughnane booked, PURPLE REIGN should have a big part to play.

20:05 Exeter NH Flat Race (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow

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

It is difficult to make a definitive prediction, as there is not a clear standout among the horses mentioned in the summary. However, 2.5/1 (1) Supremely West and 3/1 (4) I'm Ravenous seem to have the most promising track records and pedigrees, and may be the most likely to perform well in their upcoming races. 40/1 (11) Madame Pompadour also has impressive breeding, but has not shown much in her previous starts.

SUPREMELY WEST supplemented his Tramore success when winning under a penalty on his UK debut at Huntingdon. The second, who won subsequently before running with credit in a Grade 2 at Aintree, would suggest Richard Newland's charge is capable of bringing up his hat-trick. Luke Scott claims a handy 7lb this time around and that ought to further aid his chances. I'm Ravenous won between the flags in December and heads the list of dangers from Tinklers Hill.

SUPREMELY WEST bids to defy a double-penalty and sets a good standard for the others to aim at. I'm Ravenous is another one to note, while Emailandy isn't dismissed after a break.

Several pointing recruits look the part on paper, with I'M RAVENOUS just preferred to The Midwife.

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.
