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

NATURALLY NIMBLE is probably the pick of these on the Flat and gained a deserved win last time when taking a 1m2f maiden at Navan. The yard has a good line on juvenile hurdle form this season and it will be interesting to see how strong he is in the market. Slurricane had Lakota Blue over 13 lengths back in fifth when beating all bar the selection's stablemate Prairie Angel at Down Royal earlier this month, while there is very little to choose between You Done Well, Kaptain Bay and Out For A Stroll, who all finished close up in the Gowran maiden won by Solar Falcon.

SLURRICANE has made an encouraging start to life in this sphere and is well up to winning one of these. Its Bilbo looks an interesting recruit from France, while Naturally Nimble must be respected given his Flat form.

This might go to a hurdling newcomer, and the one with the best credentials and the best rating is Navan maiden winner NATURALLY NIMBLE

EASTERN LEGEND was a smart sort on the Flat, winning three times last year including a valuable 1m4f handicap at Leopardstown, and certainly has the best piece of hurdles form when just over three-lengths fifth to Kargese in the Grade 1 Champion Four Year Old Hurdle here at the Festival. Zillow won twice on the Flat in France at around 1m4f and was bought for 300,000 euros at Arqana last year, while Sermandzarak also represents powerful connections and won twice here in bumpers, including the valuable Goffs Defender Bumper at the Festival. Butch Cassidy won a Ballinrobe bumper for Philip Fenton in April, while point-to-point winner Shuffle The Deck is another to note.

ZILLOW, a fairly useful performer on the Flat, has transferred to the all-conquering Mullins stable for big money and gets the vote to make a successful hurdling debut. There are interesting rivals in opposition however, not least dual bumper winner Sermandzarak. Butch Cassidy also impressed in a Ballinrobe bumper in the spring and makes plenty of appeal now going hurdling for an in-form stable, with Eastern Legend another to note having run to a useful level in a Grade 1 juvenile in the spring.

BUTCH CASSIDY is a half-brother to Champion Bumper winner Fayonagh and looked a smart sort when winning his bumper at Ballinrobe

ROADLESSTRAVELLED defied a penalty at Wetherby to land the odds with the minimum of fuss. The five-year-old is likely to prove competitive at this level and a bold bid is anticipated. The unbeaten Rocheval has won a couple of junior hurdles in good style and looks a useful prospect. He's preferred to stablemate Bold Light on his reappearance, while both Saracen Beau and Country Mile are noted too.

A race full of potential with ROADLESSTRAVELLED just about the most persuasive option. An imposing sort physically, he's passed each of his 3 tests in fine style and there should be plenty more to come. Country Mile is sure to leave the bare form of his Ayr win behind and is a big threat, while Lily du Berlais needs respecting, too.

A number of these are open to improvement but that will be needed if Irish raider LILY DU BERLAIS returns from a break in top form.

Saladins Son sets the standard and has kept decent company, even taking in the EBF Final at Sandown, where he finished a creditable seventh. He was an expensive failure on his final appearance for Chris Gordon, though, so has something to prove on his debut for the Anthony Honeyball team and may be worth taking on with SQUIGGLES. The point-to-point winner got closest to a potentially smart mare at Ludlow and the weight she receives could prove crucial. Haveanothergoflo isn't out of it.

James Owen could hardly have his team in better form and SQUIGGLES might have a fitness edge over the returning Saladins Son.

All three have possibilities but SALADINS SON is the one to beat if judged on the pick of his form for Chris Gordon last season.

Kloth Of Utopia is a half-brother to the classy Theleme and the French raider, who won at Auteuil last month, looks an exciting prospect. Ground conditions won't be as testing on this occasion, though, and he will need to prove himself, so the vote goes to TOUQUET. Paul Nicholls' gelding impressed when winning decisively on his hurdling debut recently and with a step up in trip likely to suit, it would come as no surprise were he to find further progress. Excello was pulled up in the Ultima when last seen but he's of definite interest back over hurdles.

KLOTH OF UTOPIA won easily at Auteuil last month and can make a successful foray across the Channel with the longer trip this afternoon expected to be in his favour. Nicky Henderson course chase winner Excello had some useful form over hurdles in France at the start of his career and is second choice ahead of Western Knight.

An interesting race in which SILVER THORN gets the vote ahead of very useful chaser Excello and French raider Kloth Of Utopia.

BALLYBURN was the star novice hurdler last season and makes his eagerly awaited chasing debut. The point-to-point winner, who gained both of his bumper victories at this venue, was very impressive in scoring three times at Grade 1 level last term, including the Gallagher Novices' Hurdle by a margin of 13 lengths at the Cheltenham Festival. Dee Capo was also a useful novice over hurdles, winning twice, while An Epic Song was narrowly beaten in the 2023 Coral Cup at Cheltenham but has failed to sparkle in two chase starts. Miss Pronunciation progressed well over hurdles and completed a hat-trick at Fairyhouse in February.

Last season's leading novice hurdler BALLYBURN has all the hallmarks of one who will prove just as good over fences and Willie Mullins' 6-y-o ought to prove extremely hard to beat on his return. Miss Pronunciation, Dee Capo, Gold Dancer and Only By Night can do battle for minor honours.

Chasing it is then for BALLYBURN and the Willie Mullins-trained star should brush his rivals aside before moving onto bigger things

Dan Skelton trained last year's winner and is represented by the progressive HOME FREE. He landed a double over fences when scoring with any amount in hand at Ayr last month and a 10lb rise may not be enough to anchor him. Galunggung looks another promising recruit to chasing, having won at Perth on his debut over the larger obstacles, while both Netywell and Eden Du Houx are respected.

HOME FREE has improved on the back of wind surgery/equipped with a tongue tie, following up his Uttoxeter success with the minimum of fuss at Ayr 26 days ago. The handicapper has reacted but he's unlikely to have finished improving yet on that evidence and can complete the hat-trick. General Medrano returns with his yard in good form and along with progressive 8-y-o Galunggung, heads the dangers.

Having won both his races since a wind operation, HOME FREE is the one to beat. The unexposed Galunggung is next best.

GROVE ROAD went some way to atoning for a lacklustre Worcester performance when justifying favouritism at Newton Abbot, digging deep to end the runner-up's winning spree. James Owen's eight-year-old is 4lb higher and returning from a break, but his chief rival Emma Hamilton has had even longer off since her Ludlow triumph so he is taken to follow up. R Bernard failed in the hat-trick bid at Ludlow, but better is expected now he has that comeback under his belt.

GROVE ROAD bagged a first win for James Owen at Newton Abbot in July and can defy a 4 lb rise given he has a good record fresh and remains well weighted on past form. R Bernard also figures on a lenient mark and is next on the list ahead of Emma Hamilton and Jolie Baie.

He's not as good as he was but GROVE ROAD did well to win at Newton Abbot during the summer and might follow up here.

BATWOMEN proved she was no joker in the pack when making a successful handicap debut at Fontwell last month. A subsequent 5lb rise shouldn't prevent the unexposed mare from mounting another stern challenge and she gets the vote over Perth scorer Scarlet O'Tara. Midnightreflection had been in better form prior to landing this under Charlie Case 12 months ago, but given that she is now 8lb below that mark it would be unwise to rule her out.

QUEENS VENTURE perhaps found a busy spell catching up with her at Wetherby last time and is well worth another chance given how progressive she'd looked prior to that. Midnightreflection should be sharper for her recent run and isn't one to write off from a slipping mark, with Batwomen and Scarlet O'Tara others to consider in an open race.

The vote goes to BATWOMEN, narrowly ahead of Scarlet O'Tara who is another progressive type.

A disappointing turnout for this Grade 2, with all three runners representing the same connections and riding arrangements suggest STELLAR STORY is preferred. The point-to-point winner developed into a smart staying novice hurdler last season, notably landing the Albert Bartlett at the Cheltenham Festival. Search For Glory has a similar profile to the selection having also scored between the flags and in a bumper, and stayed well over hurdles last term, winning a 3m Clonmel Grade 3. He finished strongly to make a winning start over fences at Galway last month, while Rainbow Trail scored over 2m4f at Gowran but has since fallen here in a Grade 3.

Gordon Elliott saddles all three for Gigginstown and marginal preference is for last season's Albert Bartlett victor STELLAR STORY who is taken to make a winning start in this sphere. Search For Glory impressed when going in on his chasing bow at Galway and is feared more than Rainbow Trail.

STELLAR STORY will need to be on his game but he's the best of these over hurdles and is the choice of Jack Kennedy

BEAT THE BAT found only the useful Dysart Enos too good in novice company at Cheltenham at the end of last year. Harry Fry's inmate may well prove good enough off his current mark now handicapping and is marginally preferred to Kamsinas. The latter landed a Grade 2 novice hurdle at this fixture last year and won at Aintree on his reappearance, while Chepstow winner Josh The Boss and Steel Ally are both capable.

This is wide open but Harry Fry's lightly-raced BEAT THE BAT appeals as an improver now going into handicap company for the first time so edges the vote. Dan Skelton's Punta del Este made an encouraging return at Carlisle and could emerge as the main threat, although plenty of others make appeal, notably Josh The Boss, Fine Casting, Steel Ally, Kamsinas and last year's victor Park Annonciade.

The form of Chepstow's Silver Trophy is working out well and dominant winner JOSH THE BOSS is taken to defy a 7lb rise.

The Fergal O'Brien-trained six-year-old picked up where he left off the previous campaign with a Wincanton win before coming out on top in the Grade 2 at the Grand National meeting. Big things are expected of him now he goes over obstacles. Jackstell has joined Jamie Snowden since landing a Tipperary NH Flat race back in the spring, while formerly classy Flat performer L'astronome should step forward from his Newbury third.

HORACES PEARL was very useful in bumpers and sure to be well prepared for this hurdles debut, he's expected to outclass these. Jackstell also won in that sphere in Ireland and has transferred to an in-form yard, so he's an obvious threat, while L'Astronome ought to be capable of better given his Flat ability.

Aintree festival bumper winner HORACES PEARL, who could quite plausibly take high rank among this season's novice hurdlers.

It's been a while since Dashel Drasher's last spin over fences, but he's seldom been out of the first three in this discipline and is respected in receipt of 6lb from PIC D'ORHY, although Paul Nicholls' nine-year-old remains the one to beat. A bloodless winner of this contest 12 months ago, he later added the Ascot Chase to his CV before being pulled up in the Melling at Aintree. Wind surgery might have done him the world of good and he receives a confident vote. Le Patron looks best placed to chase the pair home.

An ideal starting point for the high-class PIC D'ORHY, who made a winning comeback in this last season before going on to win the Grade 1 Ascot Chase over the same distance. Dashel Drasher is capable of making a race of it in receipt of 6 lb if ready to go.

There's no great temptation to see past last year's winner PIC D'ORHY, who goes particularly well here and he's mustard when fresh.

Runner-up at Ayr when last seen in April, the Stuart Crawford-trained BALLYCOOSE can make a winning reappearance. Lightly raced over fences having had just the four starts, the seven-year-old is open to further improvement this term. Danny Mullins is a positive booking on a gelding who tends to run well off the back of a break. Wexford scorer Watch The Weather will find this easier having struggled in a Grade 3 at Cork and the consistent eight-year-old is likely to be very competitive for trainer Ray Cody. Magic Tricks needs to step up considerably on recent runs over fences, but there is no denying the Gordon Elliott-trained eight-year-old is well handicapped.

LAW ELLA shaped as if ahead of her mark when second at Listowel last time and is taken to the prove the point at the possible expense of in-form pair Walnut Beach and Mr Saxobeat.

Preference is for MAGIC TRICKS(), well handicapped over fences, has ground coming in his favour and could well appreciate the trip

This looks a good opportunity for the classy IROKO to make a winning start to his season. He wasn't disgraced when finishing fifth in the Turners at the Cheltenham Festival on his return from an absence, before posting an excellent runner-up effort in an Aintree Grade 1 over 3m1f. The talented but quirky Trelawne was last seen falling in the Ultima at Cheltenham but commands respect provided he puts his best foot forward. Tahmuras is respected most of the remainder.

IROKO was runner-up in the Grade 1 Mildmay at Aintree on his final outing last term and is open to further progress. He is fancied to make a winning return to action at the expense of Trelawne, who boasts a notably good record when fresh and was sent off favourite for the Ultima when last seen but fell at the second. Deafening Silence warrants plenty of respect on return/chase debut so rounds off the shortlist.

Paul Nicholls has won seven of the last ten runnings and his representative TAHMURAS earns the vote ahead of Iroko.

A promising third on chase debut at Ffos Las last month when only weakening after the last, LILTING VERSE is likely to improve plenty for that effort and stepping up in trip could see her get back to winning ways. A progressive sort over hurdles last season, but not seen since finishing runner-up here in March over shorter, Moonlit Potter is a key player on her chasing bow, as well as Melusine De Pail, who ran with credit on her return at Ludlow last month.

LILTING VERSE is likely to prove a better chaser than hurdler judged on her promising return at Ffos Las and she can put that experience to good use up against chasing newcomers Moonlit Potter, Melusine de Pail and Baby Shally.

This looks good for LILTING VERSE (nap), who made a solid start to her chase career this autumn and may have a fitness edge over some.

Art Decco commands respect on the back of registering a hat-trick over fences and may have more to give even though he has risen 19lb in the process. However, these are deeper waters and with that in mind, last season's Midlands National winner, BEAUPORT, could be the way to go. Effective when fresh, this should be an ideal test of stamina for the consistent nine-year-old, whose chance would be enhanced if further rain hit the track. Fortescue and Inis Oirr are a couple of other doughty stayers to consider.

Stamina is SLIPWAY's forte and with this test more suitable than the cross-country race he contested last week, he's tentatively offered to exploit a handy mark. Beauport's record fresh is pretty encouraging so he's on the shortlist, with Fortescue likely to be on the premises again.

Although BEAUPORT has become hard to predict, his record over fences on right-handed tracks is actually very good.

Champion Hurdler STATE MAN is hard to oppose in his bid for a third consecutive win in this race. Arguably better than ever last season, the Willie Mullins-trained gelding was unbeaten in all five starts. A horse who tends to run well fresh, he shouldn't be found wanting for fitness, despite having bigger long-term targets. Stablemate Lossiemouth is likely to provide the greatest threat. A winner of eight of her nine starts, the mare has long been considered a genuine Champion Hurdle prospect. She gets an early opportunity to test the title holder here. Gordon Elliott's recent Down Royal winner Brighterdaysahead looks the one most likely to trouble the Mullins pair.

STATE MAN has to be considered the one to beat as he goes in search of a third successive Morgiana but his stablemate Lossiemouth looks potentially top class herself and should ensure the Champion Hurdle winner doesn't have things all his own way. Progressive Jezki Hurdle winner Brighterdaysahead looks clear best of the remainder.

The standard set by reigning Champion Hurdle winner STATE MAN is a daunting one and he remains the one to beat

Doyen Quest impressed when forging clear in a Cheltenham handicap over 3m last weekend and, officially 5lb well-in at the weights under a penalty, he looks obvious shortlist material. That said, if the quick turnaround catches him out, it may be BACKMERSACKME who takes full advantage. The son of Getaway wasn't disgraced when finishing fourth on his handicap debut off this mark over 2m4f at Worcester in September and, fit from a satisfactory spin on the Flat last month, he gets the vote. Catch Him Derry has done nothing but improve and is overlooked at your peril.

James Owen denied Dan Skelton in a valuable handicap hurdle at Cheltenham last weekend and history may repeat itself, with ONE BIG BANG, who will be well suited by the return to 3m, taken to see off progressive Skelton pair Doyen Quest and Catch Him Derry. Returning Grade 2 novice hurdle winner Kerryhill is another very interesting runner.

Dropping back in trip worked the oracle for MAGIC SEVEN last time out as he comfortably saw off his rivals at Exeter for a fourth career success. A 6lb rise looks manageable for the son of Doyen, and he may be able to see off Gold For Alec, who ran a career-best when second on handicap debut at Wincanton last month. Gardener and Pyrotechnic are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

GOLD FOR ALEC showed improved form making an early switch to handicaps when runner-up at Wincanton last month and, with that form proving strong, he's fancied to go one better, especially with promising 7-lb claimer Callum Pritchard retaining the ride. Pyrotechnic and Magic Seven head the dangers.

Gold For Alec went down fighting on last month's handicap debut but the one with a bit of class about him is AN BRADAN FEASA.

GOLDEN ACE, who supplemented her Ryanair Mares' Hurdle win at the Cheltenham Festival with a comfortable Listed-race success at the same venue when she was last seen, is hard to oppose with her bid to maintain her unbeaten status over timber. The terms of this event give her a solid chance of coping with her penalties gained as a novice and further progression is very possible. Last year's winner Blueking D'oroux is an obvious threat given his record when fresh. Triumph Hurdle third Salver also adds depth to a solid renewal.

None of these can be ruled out but BLUEKING D'OROUX holds just the edge on form so is fancied to repeat his success in this event 12 months ago. Jeremy Scott's mare Golden Ace remains unbeaten in this sphere and rates a big threat though, while Irish challenger Colonel Mustard and Nicky Henderson's progressive Lucky Place are firmly in the picture too in this cracking Grade 2 contest.

A fascinating event can go to the upwardly mobile LUCKY PLACE, with last year's winner Blueking d'Oroux feared most.

The Philip Rothwell-trained BILLY LEE SWAGGER would be hard to beat if fit enough on his first start since April. Fourth in a stronger race at the Festival, the five-year-old remains potentially well treated off a mark of 104. With his stable in fine form in recent weeks, the gelding can record a second career win. A fast-finishing second over the minimum trip here just over a week ago, the Matthew Smith-trained Cozone should again be involved. Stepping up almost half a mile is also very much in his favour. The lightly-raced Pax has to be of definite interest in what is only his second start in handicap company.

Any number to consider but there's an air of unfinished business about BILLY LEE SWAGGER in handicaps so he's offered on his return to action. Depalma upped his game in novice company at Wexford so he demands consideration, with Ask Anything also of interest back over timber.

A chance is taken on STAY GOLD, who gets in here off a basement mark and always looked like one who would improve in handicaps

Grey Dawning has to be respected on his return to action following a very successful novice campaign, but he could be vulnerable in this company without a prep run. With that in mind, preference is for HEWICK, who improved on his comeback performance when narrowly denied by Envoi Allen at Down Royal earlier in the month. Last season's King George winner went on to finish third in a top-class renewal of the Punchestown Gold Cup in May and is arguably the one to beat on that form. Royale Pagaille cannot be discounted having taken this contest 12 months ago, while Bravemansgame should not be written off in first-time blinkers.

AHOY SENOR is a risky betting proposition due to his suspect jumping, but he looked as good as ever ridden more patiently than usual when third under top weight in the Old Roan at Aintree on his comeback last month and could be worth chancing. The obvious threat is Grey Dawning, who was the leading British-trained novice last season and should have even more to offer this term. Haydock specialist and defending champion Royale Pagaille completes the shortlist.

Haydock brings out the best in ROYALE PAGAILLE, who won this 12 months ago on his reappearance, and he can land back-to-back runnings.

Dual C&D winner WILLIAM CODY has yet to finish out of the first 2 over fences around here and, with a recent run under his belt, he could well be ready to strike having eased a little in the weights. Whizz Kid jumped better as the race wore on when third on his chase debut at Ayr 3 weeks ago and he's a threat, along with Hystery Bere, who is fancied to benefit from the step back up in trip.

Well supported when runner-up at Roscommon on debut, the Emmet Mullins-trained gelding easily beat a subsequent winner next time at Ballinrobe. Runner-up at Galway last time, Heads Up should be good enough to make his presence felt in a race of this nature.

Gordon Elliott looks to hold the aces in this closing bumper and his JACOB'S LADDER can supplement his Down Royal success. Stablemate Ma Jacks Hill won his completed start in points back in the spring so he can provide most resistance, with Heads Up and Jamada another couple worth keeping a close eye on.

Despite the winner's penalty, JACOB'S LADDER should be able to re-establish his Down Royal superiority over Jerry From Kerry

ROCK ARMOUR shaped well after conceding first run to the winner when coming from well off the pace to finish second over this track and trip earlier this month. Nudged up 2lb with a stronger pace forecast this time, he gets the nod to go one place better. Recent C&D winner Berry Edge can emerge as the main danger to the selection off a 3lb higher mark, while the largely consistent Prince Achille is noted too.

URBAN ROAD stepped up on his recent run when finishing a good third over C&D just over a fortnight ago and a reproduction of that form may well suffice. Prince Achille and Rock Armour are a couple of potential threats.

A few with chances but the suggestion is RAINWATER who may have dropped on the right sort of trip.

MY SILVER LINING arrives here on the back of two poor performances, but there were valid excuses for those defeats and they also mean that she arrives here 1lb lower than when third in the Midlands Grand National in March. That followed a fine second in the Grand National Trial over 3m4f at this venue the previous month and a reproduction of either of those performances would make her hard to beat. Credo was second in this race last season and could go well once again, while Fontaine Collonges and Le Milos are the pick of the remainder.

HITITI made a positive return to the larger obstacles when second at Chepstow and, based on hurdling form, he's well enough treated to go one better. Take Your Time has a good record over fences and looks the main threat ahead of Dare To Shout.

Having done very well this autumn since being switched to fences, DARE TO SHOUT is taken to follow up his win at Carlisle.

LION HILL showed enough when fifth on his racecourse bow over C&D last month to suggest that, with the benefit of the experience, he can be successful in a race of this nature. Fran The Man didn't build on a promising debut when seventh at Aintree last time but it is far too soon to be writing him off, while Risky Spin and Whatyouwaitingfor are newcomers to note.

RISKY SPIN is related to a bumper winner and represents a top Flat yard, so he's probably the one to side with for all that Whatyouwaitingfor and Herbygoesbananas also make some appeal on paper.

Preference is for Andrew Balding's newcomer RISKY SPIN, who has a pretty good pedigree for this type of race.

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

The Ben Clarke stable can do little wrong at present, and this appeals as an ideal opportunity for RI NA CUIRTE to land the double after a determined success over further at Fontwell last time out. Copshill Lad was a major improver on his first start for new connections when scoring at Stratford on his latest outing and is likely to enter calculations. Spring Gale must also be of interest stepping up in trip.

BEST LIFE improved steadily in a handful of hurdle outings as a novice, posting his best effort yet when runner-up on handicap debut at Haydock in the spring. Appealing as the type to progress further this winter, he's given the nod to go one place better on return. Copshill Lad and Spring Gale are a couple of others to consider, whilst market confidence behind Rubies or Gold, upped further in trip/equipped with cheekpieces would also look significant.

Bottom weight RUBIES OR GOLD gets the chance to show what he can do over a much longer trip and Sean Bowen is booked.

7f specialist Zip impressed when making all over this trip at Doncaster recently and another bold bid is anticipated upped 3lb. That said, his stable companion GOLDEN STRIKE edges preference. He was doing his best work late on when scoring cosily over 6f in a minor event at Ripon when last seen and, with the promise of more to come upped in trip for his handicap debut, he looks the one to side with. Rogue Encore is seeking a hat-trick and also merits respect.

Richard Fahey looks to hold a strong hand here and his GOLDEN STRIKE is fancied to take another step forward on his handicap bow and complete a hat-tirck at the chief expense of in-form stablemate Zip. Enola Grey, Mahato, Rogue Encore and Lattaash all need factoring into this competitive handicap too.

The market needs checking with some likely improvers from top yards lurking. The now-gelded MAHATO edges preference.

LOVE YOUR WORK landed a double on the turf during the summer and was beaten only a nose at Southwell last time. Darryll Holland's inmate can stamp his authority on this contest and resume winning ways at the chief expense of Drifts Away. The latter missed out on a hat-trick when runner-up at Lingfield but still makes more appeal than Nights Over Egypt, who took full advantage of his chief rival easing up too soon when landing a claimer at Leicester last month.

DRIFTS AWAY was perhaps ridden a shade too aggressively when picked off at Lingfield but it was still an excellent attempt at the hat-trick and with the winner that day going in again since, there's substance to that run. He can regain the winning thread at the chief expense of Book of Life and Love Your Work.

Top of the list is the progressive 3yo DRIFTS AWAY (nap), who was a creditable second in his hat-trick bid at Lingfield ten days ago.

CRESSIDA WILDES made a pleasing start for this stable when finishing third behind a potentially useful sort over 6f at Southwell earlier this month. With this drop back to the minimum trip promising to suit, she gets the vote to land the spoils on her nursery debut. So Darn Hot did it well when scoring over 6f at Doncaster and the son of Too Darn Hot merits respect. Commander Atkinson completes the shortlist.

SO DARN HOT opened his account at Doncaster a fortnight ago and with further improvement on the cards now switched to handicaps, Kevin Philippart de Foy's charge is fancied to follow up at the expense of Commander Atkinson, who has been beaten less than a length on his last couple of starts and should be bang there again nudged up 1 lb. The hat-trick-seeking Laurens Dream completes the shortlist up in grade.

So Darn Hot and Laurens Dream are feared but the verdict goes to COMMANDER ATKINSON (nap) who also arrives in top form.

POETIC FORCE found only one too good at Brighton on his latest start and the winner has subsequently gone in again. A prolific winner on the all-weather, Tony Carroll's veteran may prove the one to side with back on this surface. Havana Touch has been threatening a return to winning ways and has solid claims returning to this longer distance, while Prince Ali returned a cosy winner here in September and is not easily dismissed.

SNOOZE LANE is running consistently well at the moment and looks ready to strike. Last-time-out winners King of Speed and Prince Ali are obvious threats, as is in-form 3-y-o Havana Touch.

An open race in which the vote goes to four-time course winner SNOOZE LANE, who has finished runner-up here in his last two starts.

Grey Salvo was unable to build on a promising debut performance having been caught wider than ideal at Southwell last time, but that will not be the case over this straight 6f and she sits high on the shortlist. However, preference is for the Richard Fahey-trained SUNDIATA KEITA. Too green to do himself justice on his racecourse bow at Wolverhampton recently, the Sands Of Mali colt will have learned plenty for that experience and is taken to step forward. Cemlyn is a half-sister to a couple of useful types and she warrants a market check ahead of her first start.

CEMLYN makes plenty of appeal on paper in the context of this race and is fancied to get her career off to the perfect start. Sundiata Keita seems sure to step up on his debut effort and is second choice ahead of Packetofbiscuits, who should be more at home back at 6f.

Although only fifth when favourite on his debut at Wolverhampton, SUNDIATA KEITA is taken to improve sufficiently to get off the mark.

Placed on her last three outings, DARK LYRIC returns to this extra furlong with a leading chance. Sean Woods' filly ran well in defeat at Southwell last time and this looks a good opportunity to open her account. Inversion finished third over a mile at Newcastle on her penultimate start and merits consideration on that form, while the more exposed Rawaasi has a bit to find on today's terms as she steps up in distance.

No depth to this novice with INVERSION given the nod to come out on top returned to this shorter trip under Billy Loughnane. Dark Lyric is proving consistent and along with Rawaasi heads the dangers. Lancashire is a newcomer to note.

Consistent Dark Lyric has solid claims but nicely bred INVERSION is marginally preferred.

Amelia's Joy showed more than enough over C&D last month to suggest she will be up to winning races, but the vote goes to THUNDER EARTHLIGHT. Karl Burke often does well with his juveniles and the 65,000-euro purchase, a half-brother to five winners, would not have to be anything out of the ordinary to make a winning debut. Tattie Bogle is also noted.

Bryan Smart's daughter of Expert Eye AMELIA'S JOY possesses much the best form on show so looks the way to go. Karl Burke's debutant Thunder Earthlight could emerge as the chief threat, especially if the betting speaks in his favour, with Tattie Bogle appealing as the pick of the rest for minor honours.

Newcomer Thunder Earthlight makes some appeal on pedigree, but as things stand the one to beat is AMELIA'S JOY.

Causin A Commotion is considered back over C&D but EIGHTEENCARATGOLD is speedy enough to be well worth another go at 5f.

Aim For The Bull and Tiempo Alegre are entitled to be thereabouts as well.

FLAINE has a handy draw in 2 and that just tips things in her favour ahead of Clever Jack, who has been allotted the outside stall. Aim For The Bull may prove best of the remainder on his first outing for Mike Murphy.

A no-show over 7f here aside, BUTTERCROSS FLYER has acquitted herself quite well since joining Scott Dixon and came within half a length of doubling her career win tally at Wolverhampton last week. She is back up 2lb, but this race doesn't look all that competitive so it may not stop her from going one better. Penny Ghent also arrives on the back of a second, although her ability to handle an artificial surface must be taken on trust. Mambha is a contender if judged on her surprise track-and-trip success rather than her subsequent defeat here.

BUTTERCROSS FLYER was clear of the remainder when second at Wolverhampton just over a week ago and a performance of similar merit could be enough to go one better at the possible expense of Penny Ghent, who filled the same spot at Redcar on her latest outing. Stella Hogan is considered on her second outing for Mick Appleby.

C&D winner MAMBHA is capable of winning again if the headgear switch is helpful. Volcanology is next best.

A taking winner over C&D on his most recent outing, YORKSHIRE has already had a decent year and a 6lb rise may not be enough to prevent Ed Bethell's charge from going in again. A winner here back in March over 6f and a recent scorer at Southwell, Run Boy Run must enter calculations on the rise in grade, while Alzahir is another to note, having done very well since joining new connections. Brewing has yet to rediscover his best form, but he is five from eight on the all-weather, which bodes well.

YORKSHIRE leaves the impression he may not have reached his limit and can make light of a 6 lb rise for last month's C&D success. Johnny Murtagh's Final Voyage ran a cracker in a really warm race at Kempton on Wednesday and is next on the list ahead of impressive Southwell winner Run Boy Run.

With further progress plausible, YORKSHIRE is taken to follow up his C&D win. Run Boy Run, a similar type, is feared most.

LADY NUNTHORPE has gradually worked her way into form this year and confirmed the promise of a C&D third when breaking through at Southwell. The placegetters have done little for the form since but the fourth has come out and won, and there is more to come from Geoff Oldroyd's filly. Em Jay Kay regained the winning thread at Wolverhampton last week, but drops back to the minimum trip for the first time in a while. Recent 6f course winner Fletchers Dream and the unexposed Brazilian Rose have never tried 5f before, but both enter the equation. Darlo Pride has to be considered too.

BRAZILIAN ROSE looks to have more to offer starting out for Rebecca Menzies and can get off to a flying start here. Fletchers Dream is feared most on the back of his recent course victory, although Nelson Gay is weighted to go well too and in-form pair Em Jay Kay and Too Much also ought to be thereabouts.

Preference is for the well-handicapped NELSON GAY who might have needed his last run. The 3yo Lady Nunthorpe is feared most.

BARNABY has burst into life since switching to the all-weather and completed a C&D hat-trick with a determined display to pip King's School. He is up another 6lb but is probably worth sticking with until beaten, even though he comes up against some in-form opponents. Novak has won two of his last three, although the defeat came at the hands of Crown's Lady at Southwell and he is worse off at the weights.

CROWN'S LADY is on the up and showed a good attitude to see off Novak last time, so she's fancied to see off that rival again. King's School also makes plenty of appeal in what could be a strong race for the grade.

Two Auld Pals has to be of interest following his narrow second over 2m here 12 days ago, but marginal preference is for PERCY JONES. Mark Loughnane's gelding return to winning ways at this venue a month ago and a 3lb rise for that success may underestimate him. Others who make the shortlist are Sun Dancer Girl, Eagle's Realm and D Day Arvalenreeva.

SUN DANCER GIRL showed the benefit of a recent run when resuming progress to score at Lingfield 10 days ago. Still unexposed at this sort of trip, she makes plenty of appeal again with further improvement not out of the question. Parramount hasn't had things go his way of late and a better showing can be anticipated. Recent course winner Percy Jones and Two Auld Pals are others to consider.

Winning hurdler PARRAMOUNT is a bit unfortunate not to have won on the Flat and this is more realistic than last time.

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.
