(1) Ambitious Fellow 3.5/1, 6/4, off the mark at the third attempt in 8-runner bumper at Fairyhouse (16f, good) 33 days ago, going clear final 1f. Capable of going in again if he takes to hurdling.

2.5
2.5/1(+50%)
(6) General Clermont 2.5/1, Fair hurdler. Remains a maiden after 12 hurdle runs. 4/1, creditable third of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16f, heavy) 11 days ago. Should give another good account.

11
11/1(+8%)

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(10) Peejaybee 3.5/1, Did the job well when making a winning debut in a 10-runner bumper here in February. Very much an unknown quantity and very much one to consider on this hurdling bow.
3
2nd (3) (8/1 -33%) Horizon D'ainay
8
8/1(-33%)
(3) Horizon D'ainay 8/1, Fetched £80,000 as a 3-y-o and encouraging start to his career when fourth of 10 in 2m Warwick bumper in March. That experience won't be wasted on him and one to note on hurdles debut.
9
3rd (9) (11/1 -22%) Pearl Warrior
11
11/1(-22%)
(9) Pearl Warrior 11/1, Four-time winner on the Flat in Ireland. Patchy form on the level for new yard this year, but there were positives to glean from Sedgefield hurdles debut (16.8f) and should pay his way in this sphere.
8
4th (8) (6/1 -9%) Oslo
6
6/1(-9%)
(8) Oslo 6/1, Fairly useful on Flat and wasn't knocked about when chasing home the odds-on Midnights Legacy starting out over hurdles at Plumpton (2m) last month. Open to improvement in this sphere.
1
5th (1) (100/1 -100%) Braganza Bay
100
100/1(-100%)
(1) Braganza Bay 100/1, Shaped well when second in 16-runner Huntingdon bumper on debut in March. However, well held both subsequent starts since, including on recent reappearance, and best watched now switched to hurdles.
11
6th (11) (0.91/1 +0%) Raymond Tusk
0.91
0.91/1(+0%)
(11) Raymond Tusk 0.91/1, Smart on the Flat, twice placed in competitive 1½m handicaps for new yard this year. Closely related to hurdles winner Let's Twist Again and will prove hard to beat if his jumping passes the test.
5
7th (5) (33/1 -175%) Kinondo Kwetu
33
33/1(-175%)
(5) Kinondo Kwetu 33/1, Successful both starts between the flags and showed both ability and signs of temperament when fourth in 17.2f Carlisle novice hurdle on Rules debut. Should do better in time.
4
8th (4) (18/1 +45%) Kihavah
18
18/1(+45%)
(4) Kihavah 18/1, Placed on 2 of his 3 starts in maidens on the Flat in Ireland. Recent hurdles debut for new yard at Bangor wasn't devoid of encouragement, but will need to raise his game in order to take this.
7
9th (7) (28/1 +58%) Natchez Trace
28
28/1(+58%)
(7) Natchez Trace 28/1, Effective at 7f-1½m on the Flat, winner of Carlisle maiden handicap in July and good second at Nottingham on penultimate start. However, will need to settle better now switched to hurdles.
13
10th (13) (250/1 -150%) The Turfaccountant
250
250/1(-150%)
(13) The Turfaccountant 250/1, Nearer last than first in a couple of bumpers 14 months apart, and recent hurdles bow at Fakenham was hardly inspiring.
6
11th (6) (200/1 -100%) Motahassen
200
200/1(-100%)
(6) Motahassen 200/1, Modest Flat winner who is related to a winning hurdler, but will likely have an educational start in this sphere. Yard also saddles Natchez Trace.
12
|PU| (12) (300/1 -200%) Theoule
300
300/1(-200%)
(12) Theoule 300/1, Showed ability on the first of his 2 starts on the Flat for Martyn Meade, but hurdles debut at Kempton in April left much to be desired. Hood enlisted on first appearance for new connections.
LTO Selection:
12:30 Market Rasen Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Baltic Baron 14/1, Fairly useful 1m winner on the level. Low-key start over hurdles but presumably capable of better in this sphere at some point.
9
3rd (9) (66/1 +34%) Sameem
66
66/1(+34%)
(9) Sameem 66/1, Useful at one time on the Flat, but lost his way and made little impression starting out over hurdles 13 days ago.
5
4th (5) (2.12/1 +0%) Kendancer
2.12
2.12/1(+0%)
(5) Kendancer 2.12/1, Didn't need to improve to finally get off the mark in 12-runner maiden at Ballinrobe in August. Sound effort in a better race at Listowel a month later and he sets the standard on British bow.
8
6th (8) (50/1 -127%) Madeeh
50
50/1(-127%)
(8) Madeeh 50/1, Fairly useful handicapper at best on Flat, stays 13f, won 4 times early in 2021, out of sorts more recently. Hurdling debut.
3
7th (3) (66/1 -230%) Hajey
66
66/1(-230%)
(3) Hajey 66/1, Modest maiden on Flat (stays 12.5f). Did quite well to finish third on hurdles bow given how free he was at Newcastle in March. Well held back on the level soon after and off since.
6
8th (6) (66/1 -65%) Landacre Bridge
66
66/1(-65%)
(6) Landacre Bridge 66/1, Fair form when runner-up in a Ffos Las bumper (15.8f) in May. Changed hands for £80,000 thereafter but no impact both stars for Henry Hogarth. Tongue tie on.
12
9th (12) (66/1 -65%) Tom Creen
66
66/1(-65%)
(12) Tom Creen 66/1, Half-brother to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser Today Please (2m/17f winner). Dam placed 5 times on Flat in Germany. Maiden Irish pointer and minor promise on recent hurdles bow.
11
10th (11) (200/1 -150%) Sorbonne
200
200/1(-150%)
(11) Sorbonne 200/1, Modest handicapper on Flat (stays 1m) who showed aptitude for hurdling at Carlisle starting out for new yard a month ago. Slight drop in trip will suit.
LTO Selection:
12:37 Sedgefield Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(6) Upping The Anti 4.5/1, Promising individual. Third of 14 in novice hurdle at Wexford (16f, heavy, 6/1) 18 days ago. Open to further improvement back up in trip, but his stablemate makes more appeal.
7
2nd (7) (3.5/1 -100%) Where It All Began
3.5
3.5/1(-100%)
(7) Where It All Began 3.5/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 5/1, second of 9 in bumper at Wexford (16.4f, heavy) 17 days ago. Should take to hurdling and step back up in trip will suit, so he's a definite player.
10
4th (10) (50/1 +24%) Whatsstoppingyou
50
50/1(+24%)
(10) Whatsstoppingyou 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 50/1, first run since leaving P. O'Rourke when seventeenth of 19 in novice hurdle at Cork (20f, heavy) on hurdles bow 11 days ago. Booking of O'Keeffe a plus.
2
|F| (2) (0.73/1 +34%) More Than A Memory
0.73
0.73/1(+34%)
(2) More Than A Memory 0.73/1, Twice-raced maiden. 9/2, second of 12 in bumper at this course (18.5f, soft). Off 7 months. Makes hurdles debut. First run for yard after leaving S. Curling. Obvious claims starting out for top yard.
5
|S| (5) (12/1 +70%) Soloman Lane
12
12/1(+70%)
(5) Soloman Lane 12/1, €5,000 3-y-o, Sakhee gelding. Half-brother to Flat winner abroad by Vale of York. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler/chaser (stays 19f) Nietzsche. Second when fell 2 out in point on debut.
LTO Selection:
12:45 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(1) Celestial Force 0.29/1, Has won 3 times over hurdles and pretty consistent in handicaps of late. Rather exposed now but this looks a great chance down in grade.
3
2nd (3) (6.5/1 +19%) Eclair Des Sablons
6.5
6.5/1(+19%)
(3) Eclair Des Sablons 6.5/1, Followed narrow Exeter breakthrough success in April with a near miss at the same course six days later. Gone downhill since, but did stop the slide in selling company a fortnight ago.
4
3rd (4) (6.5/1 -63%) Secret Secret
6.5
6.5/1(-63%)
(4) Secret Secret 6.5/1, Winless following 15 attempts in Ireland (Flat and jumps) but made perfect start for this yard in a Stratford seller a fortnight ago. Clearly fit and in form and looks the danger to Celestial Force.
6
4th (6) (250/1 -150%) Junior Massini
250
250/1(-150%)
(6) Junior Massini 250/1, Looks very limited on early evidence. Headgear goes on.
LTO Selection:
12:55 Taunton Selling Hurdle (Class 5) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(1) Fairfield Ferrata 1.88/1, Scored at third attempt in bumpers and positive start over hurdles when runner-up in a 2m Hexham novice in December. Unable to build on that since but should strip fitter with reappearance behind her.
3
2nd (3) (0.8/1 -40%) Moonamacaroona
0.8
0.8/1(-40%)
(3) Moonamacaroona 0.8/1, Dual-bumper winner who is bred to make a hurdler. Stumbled and unseated rider on first go at it here a month ago but clearly well worth another chance.
5
3rd (5) (8.5/1 +29%) Doireann
8.5
8.5/1(+29%)
(5) Doireann 8.5/1, Shirocco filly. Dam unraced sister to fairly useful hurdler/smart chaser (2m/17f winner) An Cathaoir Mor. Third sole start in Irish points and offered something to work on when third at Chepstow.
4
4th (4) (100/1 +0%) Tanora
100
100/1(+0%)
(4) Tanora 100/1, Unplaced in 3 points and well held in as many starts under Rules.
2
5th (2) (16/1 -100%) Indian Glory
16
16/1(-100%)
(2) Indian Glory 16/1, In top hands but little in the way of promise after 3 starts.
LTO Selection:
13:05 Market Rasen Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 21f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(5) Mah Mate Bob , Well exposed but capitalised on a reduced mark in game fashion at Cartmel in May. Found just one too good at Hexham (2½m) subsequently and possibilities here if ready to roll following a break.
6
1st (6) (1.1/1 +33%) Cilluirid
1.1
1.1/1(+33%)
(6) Cilluirid 1.1/1, Readily accounted for a dual subsequent winner when opening chase account here (21f) in September. Made it 2-4 over fences in good style over C&D last week and he's 4 lb 'well-in' under a penalty.
7
2nd (7) (5.5/1 -22%) Little Orange
5.5
5.5/1(-22%)
(7) Little Orange 5.5/1, Failed to build on chase debut promise when pulled up at Hexham on final start of last season. However, firmly back on track when runner-up at Kelso (17f) recently and this trip will be more suitable.
4
3rd (4) (3/1 +25%) Raecius Felix
3
3/1(+25%)
(4) Raecius Felix 3/1, Now 10 lb lower than for his C&D success last October and while he's posted more bad efforts than good ones since, there were signs of a potential revival at Musselburgh (20.3f) 12 days ago.
2
4th (2) (12/1 -41%) River Frost
12
12/1(-41%)
(2) River Frost 12/1, More miss than hit since latest success here in August 2020, but now 13 lb below that winning mark and wasn't beaten far when third in a 4-runner handicap at this course (21f) last time.
9
5th (9) (10/1 +60%) Muroor
10
10/1(+60%)
(9) Muroor 10/1, Solid second back with this yard at Hexham last month, but beaten 17 lengths when third to Cilluirid over this C&D since and he's 6 lb 'wrong' at the weights.
8
6th (8) (18/1 -29%) Roll Of Thunder
18
18/1(-29%)
(8) Roll Of Thunder 18/1, Veteran who put in a good shift when hitting the crossbar in first-time cheekpieces at Hexham last month. However, he'll do well to go one better here from 5 lb out of the handicap.
3
|PU| (3) (50/1 -79%) Thatbeatsbanagher
50
50/1(-79%)
(3) Thatbeatsbanagher 50/1, Three-time winner (twice over fences) for Enda Bolger in Ireland, but he's offered little in 2 completed starts since joining present yard and River Frost is presumably the stable first-string.
LTO Selection:
13:12 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(7) Pour Pavore 2.75/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this season. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Galway (19.1f, heavy, 11/1) 37 days ago. Has to be taken seriously.
8
2nd (8) (5.5/1 +39%) Dedanann
5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(8) Dedanann 5.5/1, One win from 40 NH runs. Respectable fifth of 9 in handicap hurdle (5/1) at this course (24f, heavy) 14 days ago.
3
3rd (3) (2.5/1 +29%) Broomfields Jeremy
2.5
2.5/1(+29%)
(3) Broomfields Jeremy 2.5/1, Course winner. 11/1, creditable fifth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20.4f, good to soft) 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Merits consideration.
6
6th (6) (18/1 -80%) Hilltop Supreme
18
18/1(-80%)
(6) Hilltop Supreme 18/1, Course winner. Latest win in hurdle at Cork in March. 9/1, last of 10 in novice hurdle at Wexford (24f, good to soft). Off 7 months.

7.5
7.5/1(+12%)

12
12/1(-71%)
(4) Future Proof 12/1, 40/1, good third of 12 in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, soft) 12 days ago, clear of rest. First run for yard after leaving Noel Meade. Respected.
1
9th (1) (14/1 -133%) Anibale Fly
14
14/1(-133%)
(1) Anibale Fly 14/1, 16/1 and cheekpieces on for first time, third of 19 in handicap chase at Punchestown (31f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Switches from chase to hurdles. Significantly down in trip.
(1) Honneur D'Ajonc 0.62/1, Completed simple task when landing 4-runner Hereford novice (19.6f) in October and again ran well when runner-up in a C&D event under a penalty since. Expected to be in the mix again.
3
2nd (3) (1.75/1 -59%) Glajou
1.75
1.75/1(-59%)
(3) Glajou 1.75/1, Fair ex-French hurdler who improved for switch to chasing last season, successful at Southwell (15.8f) 12 months ago. Below best when last seen but likely player back hurdling following a wind op.
2
3rd (2) (12/1 +25%) Don Alvaro
12
12/1(+25%)
(2) Don Alvaro 12/1, Is well-made gelding with a smart pedigree but limited impact in bumpers/pair of maiden hurdles at up to 22f in recent weeks. However, in excellent hands and handicaps could well be more his bag.
5
4th (5) (28/1 -75%) Mahanakhon Power
28
28/1(-75%)
(5) Mahanakhon Power 28/1, Successful twice at up to 11.5f on the Flat for Michael Appleby but no immediate encouragement to glean from yard/C&D hurdles debut last month. Will need to jump better now.
LTO Selection:
13:30 Taunton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Chilli Filli 2.75/1, Useful chaser who began last season with victory in this corresponding event and ended it by landing another 3m small-field listed contest at Perth in April. Good record fresh so sure to go well.
4
2nd (4) (4/1 +43%) Midnightreferendum
4
4/1(+43%)
(4) Midnightreferendum 4/1, Useful mare who made a successful start over fences in a Fontwell maiden last November. Made the frame on all 4 completed starts since and should be in the thick of it again on this return to action.
5
3rd (5) (5/1 +38%) Organdi
5
5/1(+38%)
(5) Organdi 5/1, Fairly useful hurdler who attracted support and opened her account over fences in 4-runner Exeter event (24.2f) last month, despite being 6 lb out of the handicap. This is tougher but not ruled out.
2
4th (2) (9/1 -29%) Momella
9
9/1(-29%)
(2) Momella 9/1, Did well over fences last term, winning 3 times, latest in 3m event at Exeter in February. However, lacklustre effort when well beaten by Chilli FIlli on final outing at Perth, so bounce back needed.
6
5th (6) (5.5/1 +31%) Win My Wings
5.5
5.5/1(+31%)
(6) Win My Wings 5.5/1, Dual hurdles winner who opened her chase account with a useful effort at (26f) in April. Followed up back over hurdles at Compiegne a month later and may still have a bit more to offer as a chaser.
3
|F| (3) (3.33/1 -21%) Casablanca Mix
3.33
3.33/1(-21%)
(3) Casablanca Mix 3.33/1, One-time smart chaser but operating below her best at present, making a discouraging return after 10 months off in the Prelude handicap here 26 days ago. This more suitable. Cheekpieces back on.
(9) Major Snugfit 3.33/1, Enjoyed a productive spell on Flat, gaining third success of the year at Newcastle (12.5f) on his penultimate start. 2m at that venue taxed stamina latest but not dismissed back over hurdles.
7
2nd (7) (11/1 -22%) Burnage Boy
11
11/1(-22%)
(7) Burnage Boy 11/1, Largely struggled on Flat this summer but dispelled a lesser effort over timber when runner-up in a C&D handicap in October, pulling clear of the remainder. Task now is to back that up.
5
3rd (5) (6.5/1 -44%) Genever Dragon
6.5
6.5/1(-44%)
(5) Genever Dragon 6.5/1, Landed a C&D juvenile here last summer. Record patchy subsequently but far from disgraced from sliding mark when third over 2m at Stratford last month, keeping on. Possibilities with a repeat.
10
4th (10) (5.5/1 +39%) Leopolds Rock
5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(10) Leopolds Rock 5.5/1, Beaten a long way in 3 maiden hurdles but did manage to make the frame in a recent spin on the Flat following an absence. Worth a precautionary market check now handicapping from out of weights.
2
5th (2) (10/1 -67%) Oasis Prince
10
10/1(-67%)
(2) Oasis Prince 10/1, Maiden hurdler who ended time with Lucy Wadham with a good second at Market Rasen (18.6f) in August. Fit from trio of spins on Flat for new yard and not discounted back over timber.
6
7th (6) (18/1 +10%) Top Attraction
18
18/1(+10%)
(6) Top Attraction 18/1, Modest handicapper on the Flat who showed more than on hurdles debut when fourth in a C&D maiden in October. Not in same form at Wetherby latest but handicaps more his bag at least.
8
8th (8) (10/1 -54%) Strong Team
10
10/1(-54%)
(8) Strong Team 10/1, Fair hurdler at his best who supplemented his C&D victory in August at Kelso a month later. Not disgraced from inflated mark either outing since and claims of hitting the frame again.
4
9th (4) (150/1 -650%) Sweet Justice
150
150/1(-650%)
(4) Sweet Justice 150/1, Modest maiden on the Flat who again ran below pick of hurdles form when midfield in a 2m Thurles handicap in October. Has since switched yards and likely best watched on balance.
3
|F| (3) (4.5/1 +18%) Countister
4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(3) Countister 4.5/1, Gained first success since 2017/18 campaign when scoring in good style at Kelso (2¼m) in September. Good third next time but bounce back called for having run below par here latest.
LTO Selection:
13:47 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) Mount Ida 1.2/1, Justified strong support when landing Kim Muir at Cheltenham in March. Unsuited by the way the race developed when third at Fairyhouse final start and she's a big player on these terms on return.
1
2nd (1) (2.25/1 +10%) Scarlet And Dove
2.25
2.25/1(+10%)
(1) Scarlet And Dove 2.25/1, Took well to chasing last term, landing Limerick Grade 2 in March. Mistake 2 out arguably cost her victory at Punchestown (21f) final start and she looks a live player on return.
6
3rd (6) (4/1 +33%) Fairyhill Run
4
4/1(+33%)
(6) Fairyhill Run 4/1, Useful chaser who completed hurdles/chase hat-trick in impressive style at Kilbeggan (25f) in August. Hasn't scaled same heights in 2 subsequent starts but certainly no forlorn hope here.
5
4th (5) (28/1 +15%) Danse Idol
28
28/1(+15%)
(5) Danse Idol 28/1, Fairly useful chaser for Dan Skelton who was struggling some way out when well held fourth on yard debut at Tipperary (19.7f) in October. Needs to step up markedly on that to feature.
3
5th (3) (14/1 -17%) Sapphire Lady
14
14/1(-17%)
(3) Sapphire Lady 14/1, Fairly useful chaser who ran respectably when third of 6 in a mares' chase over 18f here last month. However, this demands much more.
4
|PU| (4) (28/1 -12%) Cushinstown Finest
28
28/1(-12%)
(4) Cushinstown Finest 28/1, Reliable sort who looked suited by the way the race developed when resuming winning ways at Wexford (20f) last month. Likely she'll find a couple too good in this field.
(5) Catch The Cuban 2.25/1, Hit and miss profile overall but he does arrive on the back of 3 placed efforts in handicap chases, beaten only by a progressive sort at Wincanton (20.2f, 7/2) 18 days ago. Should be in the mix.
3
2nd (3) (2.5/1 +17%) Naizagai
2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(3) Naizagai 2.5/1, Made winning start over hurdles at Cartmel last season and filled the frame next 6 starts. Stepped up on his reappearance when runner-up on chase bow but not so good at Kempton next time. Yard flying.
2
3rd (2) (2.75/1 +31%) Caspers Court
2.75
2.75/1(+31%)
(2) Caspers Court 2.75/1, Landed a gamble over hurdles on return at Exeter last term and showed enough in this sphere last term to suggest he can win races, not disgraced when third on return back at Exeter last month.
1
4th (1) (11/1 -100%) Admiral's Sunset
11
11/1(-100%)
(1) Admiral's Sunset 11/1, Finally opened chase account at Stratford in August and subsequently followed up at Worcester a fortnight later. Faced a stiff task from out of weights last time and should make more impact here.
4
|U| (4) (5.5/1 +21%) Heronord
5.5
5.5/1(+21%)
(4) Heronord 5.5/1, Fairly consistent without getting his head in front in Ireland for Paul Nolan. Makes chase debut for yard amongst the winners so he shouldn't be underestimated.
LTO Selection:
14:02 Taunton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 18f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(4) Hunny Moon 3/1, Fair bumper winner who got off the mark over hurdles in weak affair at Wetherby in March. Responded well to double her tally when scoring at Perth and needed experience on return/chase bow last month.
5
2nd (5) (4.5/1 +50%) Tide Times
4.5
4.5/1(+50%)
(5) Tide Times 4.5/1, Justified support on handicap debut at Ascot (23.5f) last November but little impact since, tailed off after a break at Cheltenham 19 days ago. Needs to get back on track on this chase debut.
1
3rd (1) (6/1 +0%) Jimmy The Digger
6
6/1(+0%)
(1) Jimmy The Digger 6/1, Made light of 11-month absence to open his account in 2½m handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter in June and followed up on chase bow a month later. Not so good since but this longer trip should eke out extra.
2
4th (2) (4.5/1 +18%) Present Chief
4.5
4.5/1(+18%)
(2) Present Chief 4.5/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler who shaped with a good deal of encouragement when third under a patient ride at Worcester on chasing debut. Unable to build on that next time but remains with potential.
3
|U| (3) (2/1 -14%) Starsky
2
2/1(-14%)
(3) Starsky 2/1, Winning start for this yard in Warwick handicap in May and made an encouraging start over fences when narrowly denied at Worcester 5 weeks ago. Cheekpieces go on and he's open to improvement.
(6) Wilhelm Vonvenster 33/1, Poor maiden on the Flat and of a similar merit over hurdles. Improvement needed from his current mark.
5
2nd (5) (3/1 +0%) Getaway Jewel
3
3/1(+0%)
(5) Getaway Jewel 3/1, Ended last season with a fortunate C&D win. Most likely needed his return here in August and should go well from same mark as when successful here on penultimate outing.
7
3rd (7) (7/1 +7%) Charle Brune
7
7/1(+7%)
(7) Charle Brune 7/1, Showed he isn't a completely lost cause when third at Uttoxeter at the beginning of October. Fell heavily retried over fences at Market Rasen but not without hope back hurdling if none the worse.
2
4th (2) (5.5/1 +8%) Alright Marlene
5.5
5.5/1(+8%)
(2) Alright Marlene 5.5/1, Proved at least as good as ever when collared in the final 50 yds in a 13-runner handicap here (19.8f) 8 months ago. Off since but can give another good account in her bid for a first success.
8
5th (8) (2.75/1 +45%) Lucky Icon
2.75
2.75/1(+45%)
(8) Lucky Icon 2.75/1, Last win came in 2019, but down the weights as a result and turned in his best effort the season when fifth in 9-runner handicap at Stratford a fortnight ago. Cheekpieces go on and needs considering.
9
6th (9) (8.5/1 +6%) My Poem
8.5
8.5/1(+6%)
(9) My Poem 8.5/1, Fair winner at 11f on Flat but has cut little ice over hurdles to date, running to just a poor level once more when fifth of 15 in 2m event at Chepstow 16 days ago. Cheekpieces on for the 1st time.
3
|F| (3) (50/1 -178%) Danny Park
50
50/1(-178%)
(3) Danny Park 50/1, Little form over hurdles and fared no better tried chasing in a hunter at Chepstow in April. First run for yard after leaving Nick Mitchell.
LTO Selection:
14:17 Sedgefield Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 17f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(1) Fakir D'oudairies 1.25/1, Top-class chaser. Career best when winning 7-runner Melling Chase at Aintree (19.9f) in April. Stamina possibly stretched at Punchestown (24.5f) final start and this more suitable on return.
3
2nd (3) (2.5/1 +17%) Royal Rendezvous
2.5
2.5/1(+17%)
(3) Royal Rendezvous 2.5/1, High-class chaser. Career best when winning 5-runner PWC Champion Chase at Gowran (20f) 40 days ago by ½ length from Hardline. Player once more.
2
3rd (2) (3.5/1 -17%) Easy Game
3.5
3.5/1(-17%)
(2) Easy Game 3.5/1, High-class chaser. Latest win in chase at Listowel in September. Looked set to go close when falling in Gowran Gr.2 in October, race won by Royal Rendezvous and he's one to be firmly interested in.
4
4th (4) (6/1 -33%) Hardline
6
6/1(-33%)
(4) Hardline 6/1, Very smart chaser. Eight wins from 30 NH runs. Good ½-length second of 5 to Royal Rendezvous in Gowran (20f) 40 days ago. Not discounted for all consistency not his strong suit.
(4) Galore Desassences 6/1, Fair bumper winner who offered something encouragement when third in a Market Rasen maiden hurdle (16.6f) 26 days ago, despite again not being fluent. Cheekpieces on for the 1st time.
1
3rd (1) (7/1 -27%) Annual Review
7
7/1(-27%)
(1) Annual Review 7/1, Just modest in bumpers, but made a more encouraging start over hurdles when third at Ludlow (15.8f) 3 weeks ago, faring best of those held up. Should do better.
10
4th (10) (40/1 +0%) Vanderbilt
40
40/1(+0%)
(10) Vanderbilt 40/1, Modest hurdler. Remains a maiden after 30 hurdle runs. Creditable second in an 18.5f handicap at Newton Abbot on his latest start in July but faces a much stiffer task back in maiden company.
9
5th (9) (7/1 +30%) Sarvan
7
7/1(+30%)
(9) Sarvan 7/1, Fairly useful at best on Flat, stays 1¼m. Below form in that sphere lately but may up his game on this first try hurdling sporting a tongue strap/cheekpieces combination.
6
6th (6) (6/1 +40%) Nine Nine Nine
6
6/1(+40%)
(6) Nine Nine Nine 6/1, All the rage in the market but needed the experience in sole bumper. Showed some ability behind a useful sort on Fakenham hurdle bow 15 days ago and may do better with that under his belt.
5
7th (5) (3.33/1 -77%) Huelgoat
3.33
3.33/1(-77%)
(5) Huelgoat 3.33/1, Won a 1½m bumper in France. Failed to take advantage of a good opportunity on British debut at Exeter but could come good now switching to hurdles. Hooded/had wind op.
3
|PU| (3) (4/1 -14%) Data Protection
4
4/1(-14%)
(3) Data Protection 4/1, Fairly useful on Flat, stays 10.5f, back to form last time following another breathing operation. Tongue tie retained for hurdle debut and should be up to making his presence felt in a race like this.
LTO Selection:
14:32 Taunton Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Fresh New Dawn 3.5/1, Yet to score over fences but he's handicapped to do so and returned to form when second at Perth 50 days ago. Stable is flying and this looks a cracking opportunity.
2
2nd (2) (3.33/1 +5%) San Agustin
3.33
3.33/1(+5%)
(2) San Agustin 3.33/1, Ex-pointer who showed fair form over hurdles (won at Southwell in May) and is likely to strip fitter for his chasing debut in a handicap at Bangor 16 days ago. Big player in a thin race.
6
3rd (6) (2.5/1 +71%) Miraculous Getaway
2.5
2.5/1(+71%)
(6) Miraculous Getaway 2.5/1, Just the one effort of note from his 5 starts over hurdles and yet to make a serious impact over fences. Dropped another 3 lb since latest outing, but others are still more appealing.
3
4th (3) (8.5/1 -89%) Steel Wave
8.5
8.5/1(-89%)
(3) Steel Wave 8.5/1, Temperamental sort who upped his game to end a huge losing run at Stratford a fortnight ago but might not be in the same form on this occasion.
4
6th (4) (33/1 -18%) Master Malcolm
33
33/1(-18%)
(4) Master Malcolm 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden who bettered his debut effort over hurdles when third in small-field novice at Aintree in May. Below that level next time, however, including on chasing bow at Bangor last time.
9
7th (9) (50/1 +0%) L'es Fremantle
50
50/1(+0%)
(9) L'es Fremantle 50/1, Decidedly limited sort who hasn't won since 2018.
7
8th (7) (9/1 +18%) Fact Flow
9
9/1(+18%)
(7) Fact Flow 9/1, Not at best since scoring at Chepstow in April but recent return from a break at Stratford was more encouraging and he's now well treated again.
5
|PU| (5) (7.5/1 +32%) Catlin
7.5
7.5/1(+32%)
(5) Catlin 7.5/1, Career best when winning 11-runner handicap chase at Newcastle in March, then seemed to find the sharper track acting against her at Bangor next time. Likely to need the run back from 6 months off.
(2) Bold Endeavour 1.38/1, Bought for £190,000 after winning sole start between the flags and duly made a successful rules debut in a 16.8f bumper here in May. Potentially a useful recruit and obvious appeal on hurdles bow.
3
3rd (3) (3/1 +79%) Easter In Milan
3
3/1(+79%)
(3) Easter In Milan 3/1, Maiden pointer who caught the eye when sixth of 11 on his second start over hurdles at Kelso (16.2f) recently. This stiffer test promises to suit and he remains capable of better.
1
4th (1) (18/1 +55%) Akentrick
18
18/1(+55%)
(1) Akentrick 18/1, Modest form at best in bumpers and hasn't shown enough in a couple of appearances over hurdles to suggest that he'll be up to winning this.
5
5th (5) (12/1 +52%) Highland Parc
12
12/1(+52%)
(5) Highland Parc 12/1, Looks pretty modest judged on exploits to date and will need to improve for this step up in trip if he's to have a say in the finish.
8
|F| (8) (4/1 -45%) Lanty Slea
4
4/1(-45%)
(8) Lanty Slea 4/1, Made a winning debut in a small-field Carlisle bumper in March 2020. Early faller at Hexham when last seen in June, but runner-up in a Kelso novice prior to that and he's one of the likelier types.
7
|PU| (7) (200/1 -150%) Jupiter Road
200
200/1(-150%)
(7) Jupiter Road 200/1, Largely struggled on the level this year and limited appeal starting out over hurdles here for new connections.
LTO Selection:
14:47 Sedgefield Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(17) Sunnyvilla 3/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Ninth of 14 in novice chase (200/1) at Gowran (20f, heavy). Off 8 months. Makes handicap chase debut. RESERVE.
5

22
22/1(+33%)
(5) Presenting Point 22/1, Tenth of 16 in handicap chase (80/1) at Punchestown (23.9f, good) 30 days ago.
10
4th (10) (5/1 +23%) Crack On Corrie
5
5/1(+23%)
(10) Crack On Corrie 5/1, 1 win from 3 runs this season. 11/1, career best when winning 16-runner handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, good to soft) 9 days ago, easing clear. Switches from hurdles to chase.
7
5th (7) (4.5/1 -13%) Captain Jimmy
4.5
4.5/1(-13%)
(7) Captain Jimmy 4.5/1, 3/1, improved to win 13-runner handicap chase at Galway (22.5f, heavy) 18 days ago, forging clear. Expected to be bang there.
14
6th (14) (50/1 -52%) Lacken Bridge
50
50/1(-52%)
(14) Lacken Bridge 50/1, Sixteen runs since last win in 2018. 50/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap chase at Thurles (18f, good) 21 days ago.
11
7th (11) (25/1 -213%) Drummullagh Rocky
25
25/1(-213%)
(11) Drummullagh Rocky 25/1, Latest win in chase at Downpatrick in August. 6/1, creditable third of 9 in handicap chase at Ballinrobe (17f, good to soft) 62 days ago. Up in trip. Not taken lightly.
3
8th (3) (25/1 -108%) Kilkeaskins First
25
25/1(-108%)
(3) Kilkeaskins First 25/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2019. 6/1, third of 4 in novice chase at Tramore (15.2f, good) 28 days ago. Significantly back up in trip.
2
9th (2) (10/1 +29%) Brex Drago
10
10/1(+29%)
(2) Brex Drago 10/1, Twenty six runs since last win in 2018. 16/1, fell in handicap chase at Limerick (22.7f, good to soft) 177 days ago. Cheekpieces back on.
8
|PU| (8) (14/1 -56%) Stormy Master
14
14/1(-56%)
(8) Stormy Master 14/1, One win from 22 NH runs. 20/1, fourteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle at Navan (22f, good to soft) 4 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase.
6
|PU| (6) (18/1 -50%) Bitview Colin
18
18/1(-50%)
(6) Bitview Colin 18/1, Twenty runs since last win in 2020. Ninth of 11 in handicap hurdle at Sligo (20f, soft, 12/1) 20 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase.
1
|PU| (1) (25/1 -150%) Tiantu
25
25/1(-150%)
(1) Tiantu 25/1, Good third of 6 in handicap chase (13/2) at this course (16.3f, heavy) 14 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive.
13
|PU| (13) (25/1 -108%) Mezyan
25
25/1(-108%)
(13) Mezyan 25/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. Fourth of 16 in handicap chase (14/1) at Thurles (18f, good) 21 days ago. Merits consideration.
4
|PU| (4) (33/1 -136%) Princely Conn
33
33/1(-136%)
(4) Princely Conn 33/1, Course winner. Latest win in hurdle at Kilbeggan in July. Thirteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Cork (16f, heavy, 40/1) 11 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Back up in trip.
(2) Ebony Gale 0.14/1, Worcester winner in June and creditable second in first-time cheekpieces at Kempton (3m) last month, for all that he failed to land a glove on the winner. Blinkers refitted and obvious chance.
3
2nd (3) (4.5/1 +40%) Young Turk
4.5
4.5/1(+40%)
(3) Young Turk 4.5/1, Not the force of old and well held on each of his 3 starts since returning from a break in August.
LTO Selection:
15:05 Taunton Handicap Chase (Class 3) 23f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(4) Mister Sweets 2.75/1, Placed all 3 outings in points and has shown modest form to date over hurdles. Switch to handicaps and step back up in trip could bring about improvement, but opening mark demands it.
3
2nd (3) (5/1 -100%) Macho Mover
5
5/1(-100%)
(3) Macho Mover 5/1, Fair hurdler who has been quickly turned around by his bang-in-form stable, scoring at Newton Abbot in September, then finding one too good at Stratford 38 days ago. Can regain the winning thread.
2
3rd (2) (2/1 +56%) Steady Away
2
2/1(+56%)
(2) Steady Away 2/1, Fair maiden hurdler who wasn't shaping up too badly towards the end of last season and returned with a respectable third at Newton Abbot 3 weeks ago. Merits consideration.
6
4th (6) (3.5/1 +30%) Envol De La Cour
3.5
3.5/1(+30%)
(6) Envol De La Cour 3.5/1, Won division of this last year and has edged back down to a handy mark having pulled too hard the last twice. Tongue tie goes on, and he boasts strong claims if settling better.
1
5th (1) (8.5/1 -113%) Near Kettering
8.5
8.5/1(-113%)
(1) Near Kettering 8.5/1, Scored here in August and, despite some lesser efforts on the Flat subsequently, supplemented that at Carlisle last month, just holding on. Should put up a bold bid for the hat-trick.
5
6th (5) (66/1 -65%) Simply Loveleh
66
66/1(-65%)
(5) Simply Loveleh 66/1, Disappointing for Dan Skelton since scoring at Aintree in May, so hard to make a case for starting out for new yard after 71 days off.
(2) Celestial Sky 1.88/1, Lightly-raced 5-y-o who upped his game when a strong-travelling second in handicap hurdle at Ayr 17 days ago. Bred to make a chaser, so he's an obvious player in a moderate event.
1
(1) (4.5/1 -35%) Diamond Brig
4.5
4.5/1(-35%)
(1) Diamond Brig 4.5/1, Fair handicap chaser who returned to action with a lacklustre display at Uttoxeter but now drops in grade with a handy conditional on board, so warrants respect.
4
(4) (5/1 -67%) Regaby
5
5/1(-67%)
(4) Regaby 5/1, Gained his breakthrough win over fences at Hexham in August and got right back on track when second of 5 at Plumpton 24 days ago, albeit not jumping with fluency. Hard to know if he'll back it up.
8
(8) (5.5/1 +21%) Elixer
5.5
5.5/1(+21%)
(8) Elixer 5.5/1, Long-standing maiden who has hit the frame the last twice but is hard to back for win purposes given his weak finishing tendencies.
5
(5) (9/1 +36%) Supreme Steel
9
9/1(+36%)
(5) Supreme Steel 9/1, Veteran who capitalised on a much-reduced mark at Hexham in October and was shaping well prior to falling next time. Latest effort at that track was underwhelming, though.
3
(3) (16/1 +0%) Whitechurch
16
16/1(+0%)
(3) Whitechurch 16/1, Has an uninspiring record over hurdles but he's a winning pointer, so there's at least some hope for a bigger effort now handicap chasing for the first time.
9
(9) (25/1 +0%) Strategic
25
25/1(+0%)
(9) Strategic 25/1, Limited hurdler/chaser. Likely to struggle from out of the weights.
7
(7) (40/1 -43%) Scorpo
40
40/1(-43%)
(7) Scorpo 40/1, Pulled up on both outings since a fortunate success at this track. Set for another struggle.
LTO Selection:
15:20 Sedgefield Handicap Chase (Class 5) 27f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 5 race.
(2) Bold Getaway 1.2/1, Maiden pointer who offered some encouragement when fourth of 20 in a maiden hurdle at Leopardstown (20f, soft) on NH debut 10 months ago. Switches to a bumper now and has to command major respect.
(8) Molliana 3.5/1, Likeable mare who completed an emphatic hat-trick over hurdles at Les Landes 45 days ago. Thrown in if that form is taken at face value, so she should be hard to beat in an ordinary contest.
10
(10) (4/1 +75%) Electric Annie
4
4/1(+75%)
(10) Electric Annie 4/1, Showed some promise in bumpers, but disappointing over hurdles for Milton Harris and return to former yard failed to spark a revival at Plumpton on reappearance.
2
(2) (5/1 -11%) Laura Bullion
5
5/1(-11%)
(2) Laura Bullion 5/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Noel Meade when creditable second of 6 in handicap hurdle at Plumpton (15.9f, good) 24 days ago. Yard is in terrific form, so she's one to note.
4
(4) (5.5/1 +39%) Saturn 'n Silk
5.5
5.5/1(+39%)
(4) Saturn 'n Silk 5.5/1, Returned with career best effort in landing 12-runner novice at Bangor but refused to race in a handicap there 16 days ago. Mark looks stiff enough even if she consents to run this time.
7
(7) (6/1 -9%) Whispering Gypsy
6
6/1(-9%)
(7) Whispering Gypsy 6/1, Much improved on the back of a wind op when winning 2m novice hurdle (2/1) at Warwick in September. Respectable return to handicaps at Stratford last month, but mark demands further progress.
3
(3) (9/1 -38%) Diamond Gait
9
9/1(-38%)
(3) Diamond Gait 9/1, Won at Stratford last October and, following an uninspiring spell on the Flat, shaped better than result making reappearance in that corresponding event. She's well treated, and should build on that.
1
(1) (18/1 -80%) Cotton End
18
18/1(-80%)
(1) Cotton End 18/1, Likeable type who racked up her fifth handicap win in under 9 months at Aintree (16.4f) in June. Has found life tougher since, though, and she looks vulnerable for now.
9
(9) (22/1 -38%) Maroochi
22
22/1(-38%)
(9) Maroochi 22/1, Modest in bumpers and similar form over hurdles to date, leaving Alan King before third of 4 in novice at Wincanton 18 days ago. Hood goes on for handicap bow, and opening mark looks fair.
5
(5) (22/1 -10%) Solstalla
22
22/1(-10%)
(5) Solstalla 22/1, Three-time winner this season but appears to have gone off the boil lately, so others are more persuasive.
6
(6) (25/1 -178%) See The Eagle Fly
25
25/1(-178%)
(6) See The Eagle Fly 25/1, Juvenile hurdle winner at Fontwell over a year ago but failed to progress subsequently. Has left Harry Whittington since last seen on the Flat.
LTO Selection:
15:35 Taunton Handicap Hurdle (Class 4) 19f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(6) Broomfields Kan , Point winner who has been well held both starts in maiden chases but hurdles efforts haven't been devoid of promise. Ran out approaching the first at Carlisle on Monday so must put that behind him.
1
(1) (2/1 +40%) Zafar
2
2/1(+40%)
(1) Zafar 2/1, Second win of the season when edging out Cardboard Gangster at Kelso in September. Proved at least as good as ever when runner-up at Kempton last month and should feature once again for in-form yard.
4
(4) (3/1 +25%) Just Call Me Al
3
3/1(+25%)
(4) Just Call Me Al 3/1, Right back to his best when striking over this C&D in September. Shade below par under a penalty next time, but respectable third at this C&D (good to soft, 5/2) last week. Not discounted.
8
(8) (5/1 -50%) Smart Lass
5
5/1(-50%)
(8) Smart Lass 5/1, Pair of Flat wins this year and nearly added another at Ayr last month. Finished with running left at Kelso 19 days ago and she's well worth another chance having dropped further in the weights.
5
(5) (7/1 +36%) Demi Sang
7
7/1(+36%)
(5) Demi Sang 7/1, Lurking on a very dangerous mark, particularly judged on his exploits over fences. However, it's been more than 2 years since he last got his head in front and others have more pressing claims.
2
(2) (7.5/1 -25%) Golden Robin
7.5
7.5/1(-25%)
(2) Golden Robin 7.5/1, Opened her account in Hexham handicap on last season's reappearance. Creditable placed efforts on 3 of her 4 starts later in the campaign but failed to complete on reappearance last month.
7
(7) (12/1 -41%) Fever Roque
12
12/1(-41%)
(7) Fever Roque 12/1, Third on sole bumper start and filled the same spot on Perth hurdling debut. Below that effort at Cartmel next start and makes handicap debut following 5-month break.
3
(3) (22/1 -83%) Lucky Robin
22
22/1(-83%)
(3) Lucky Robin 22/1, Fair jumper who was revived all of a sudden when scoring at this track (16.8f, good) in September. Not disgraced over fences since but latest effort over hurdles left plenty to be desired.
LTO Selection:

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.
