Races & Results Thursday 1st December 2022
The data in the racecards below is for the past year. View the racecard key.
(7) Ilanz 3/1, Showed fairly useful form in bumpers. In the frame on both hurdle starts this autumn and rates a likely improver now making a quick switch to handicaps.
1
2nd (1) (4/1 +56%) Will Sting
4
4/1(+56%)
(1) Will Sting 4/1, Fairly useful hurdler who was runner-up off 9 lb higher at Sandown just over a year ago. Might have needed last month's Warwick reappearance and could fare better this time.
5
3rd (5) (2.75/1 +8%) Natty Night
2.75
2.75/1(+8%)
(5) Natty Night 2.75/1, Fairly useful on Flat for William Muir and built on hurdles debut promise when landing 2m Taunton maiden (soft) in January. Best run in handicaps since when third on 2m Hereford reappearance 23 days ago. May do better with that outing behind him.
6
4th (6) (20/1 -67%) Iceman Dennis
20
20/1(-67%)
(6) Iceman Dennis 20/1, A touch disappointing since his near miss in a bumper on debut but latest Stratford novice third represented an improved effort over hurdles and he may do better again now handicapping. Cheekpieces off. Has had wind surgery.
4
5th (4) (20/1 +39%) Royle Steel
20
20/1(+39%)
(4) Royle Steel 20/1, Sedgefield maiden hurdle winner last winter. Relatively unexposed now switching to handicap company for the first time on reappearance but his opening mark isn't obviously generous.
3
6th (3) (2.75/1 -57%) Gerard Mentor
2.75
2.75/1(-57%)
(3) Gerard Mentor 2.75/1, Seeking a hat-trick after 2m wins at Exeter and Ludlow last month. Scored by 18 lengths at latter venue 10 days ago so a 7 lb penalty may not stop him.
2
7th (2) (18/1 -350%) Ithaka
18
18/1(-350%)
(2) Ithaka 18/1, Largely well held over hurdles for Ronan McNally in Ireland, including a handicap in October, but he is one to note in the betting on this first outing for a new stable.
(1) Artemis Kimbo 7/1, Saint Des Saints mare. Dam unraced, closely related to smart hurdler/top-class chaser (stays 3¼m) Santini. Produced a promising first effort when fourth of 11 in a Chepstow bumper back in March, making smooth headway from rear early in straight. Respected on hurdle debut.
4
2nd (4) (1.2/1 +40%) Houi Cherie
1.2
1.2/1(+40%)
(4) Houi Cherie 1.2/1, Showed fair form in bumpers and offered plenty to work on starting out over hurdles after 8 months off when second of 16 in a Hereford maiden (19.7f) 16 days ago, not knocked about. Will improve.
7
3rd (7) (18/1 +10%) Police Academy
18
18/1(+10%)
(7) Police Academy 18/1, Point winner who showed some ability switched to Rules (in a hood) when fifth of 14 in Chepstow bumper (2m) 36 days ago, staying on gradually. Longer trip ought to suit now hurdling.
6
4th (6) (4/1 +33%) Kraqueline
4
4/1(+33%)
(6) Kraqueline 4/1, Showed fair form when reaching the frame in a couple of bumpers and probably ran to a similar level sent hurdling after 8 months off when fifth at Ffos Las (15.8f) 39 days ago. Upped in trip.
3
5th (3) (6.5/1 +7%) Getaway Lily Bear
6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(3) Getaway Lily Bear 6.5/1, £75,000 4-y-o, Getaway mare. Half-sister to fair chaser I'll Be That Lady, stays 21f. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stays 21f) Theo. Runner-up only start in Irish points (Dec 2020). Wears tongue strap.
5
6th (5) (22/1 -22%) I Giorni
22
22/1(-22%)
(5) I Giorni 22/1, Arcadio mare. Sister to fairly useful hurdler/chaser Justmemyselfandi. Successful on her only start in Irish points but failed to see her race out after looking a threat in a Chepstow bumper 36 days ago. Tongue strap applied for hurdle debut.
2
|F| (2) (6.5/1 -30%) Chosen Port
6.5
6.5/1(-30%)
(2) Chosen Port 6.5/1, Fair bumper performer who was pulled up after losing her action approaching the fourth (found to be lame on left hind) on her Huntingdon hurdling debut a year ago. Clearly capable of better.
LTO Selection:
12:15 Leicester Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(3) Harlem Soul 25/1, Fairly useful on Flat and improved on opening hurdle exploits (on debut for Colin Tizzard) when successful in a 2m novice here in March. However, he's shown little for current yard this season and it remains to be seen if a switch to fences improves matters.
4
2nd (4) (5.5/1 +45%) Dock Road
5.5
5.5/1(+45%)
(4) Dock Road 5.5/1, Back to form in blinkers when second over hurdles at Southwell in April but the headgear didn't work as well a second time at Uttoxeter 2 months later (final start for Ben Pauling). Limited impact in 4 chase starts for previous stable. Watching brief is advised.
2
3rd (2) (1.25/1 +50%) Hiway One O Three
1.25
1.25/1(+50%)
(2) Hiway One O Three 1.25/1, Much improved with a tongue tie fitted over hurdles, rattling off a quick-fire hat-trick last spring. Shaped as if he'll be better for the experience when fourth on his Lingfield chase debut 23 days ago. Likely improver for in-form stable.
5
4th (5) (40/1 +50%) Welsh's Castle
40
40/1(+50%)
(5) Welsh's Castle 40/1, Fair form over hurdles but hasn't achieved much in 4 previous attempts over fences, while he was also pulled up in a Ludlow handicap hurdle on last month's return for a new stable. First-time blinkers replace cheekpieces.
6
5th (6) (8.5/1 -278%) Happy News
8.5
8.5/1(-278%)
(6) Happy News 8.5/1, Rather lost the plot for John Groucott at the start of 2022 but she has a good record fresh and has dropped to a mark 11 lb lower than when scoring on her Ludlow reappearance last season. Has had wind surgery. Interesting runner, particularly if backed.
1
6th (1) (2.75/1 -22%) Dash Of Blue
2.75
2.75/1(-22%)
(1) Dash Of Blue 2.75/1, Fair winning hurdler who made light of a 21-month absence to strike on his Southwell chase debut (20.5f, good) 3 weeks ago. He could easily have more to offer over fences. Leading claims.
8
7th (8) (18/1 +10%) Eurkash
18
18/1(+10%)
(8) Eurkash 18/1, Got off the mark over fences at Bangor (17f, heavy) in December 2020. Also runner-up twice in spring 2021 but pulled too hard when a below-form fourth over hurdles under this rider at Worcester in July 2021 and not seen since.
7
|PU| (7) (22/1 -144%) Joey Steel
22
22/1(-144%)
(7) Joey Steel 22/1, Dual handicap chase winner but unreliable, rather throwing it away when second at Newton Abbot on penultimate start then bombing out totally back there last time. 3 lb rise doesn't help his cause.
LTO Selection:
12:25 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 20f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(5) Glengouly 3.33/1, Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 7/2, pulled up in minor event hurdle at Punchestown (19.8f, good to soft), pulled up before last. Off 7 months. Makes chase debut for top yard.

0.67
0.67/1(+51%)
(14) Telmesomethinggirl 0.67/1, Smart hurdler. Fell in Mares Champion Hurdle (17/2) at Punchestown (19.1f, good to soft) won by Marie's Rock (too far out to suggest outcome). Off 7 months. Makes chase debut and this winning pointer is a fascinating contender.
10
3rd (10) (4/1 +27%) Brides Hill
4
4/1(+27%)
(10) Brides Hill 4/1, Useful hurdler. Fell in novice chase (11/8) at Fairyhouse (16f, good) on debut over fences 54 days ago, probably would have won. Merits consideration.
2

50
50/1(+0%)
(2) Commandingpresence 50/1, fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. Thirteenth of 17 in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (21.5f, good to soft, 14/1). Unseated rider both chase starts and now starts out for a new yard.

12:32 Thurles Maiden Chase 18f Race Speed Rating Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(2) Casi Crudo 2.75/1, Half-brother to fair 2m hurdle winner Rafiki and, having shown modest form on the Flat, showed a bit to work on when third in a juvenile hurdle at Ludlow for new yard 28 days ago. Should be on the premises.
5
2nd (5) (2.75/1 +8%) Morandi Second
2.75
2.75/1(+8%)
(5) Morandi Second 2.75/1, Half-brother to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser in France Autorisation (17f-23f winner, by Authorized). Fair maiden on the Flat in France and looks an interesting recruit to this sphere.

1.75
1.75/1(+13%)
(1) Apologise 1.75/1, Fair Flat winner. Won 11-runner handicap at Killarney (11.4f, soft, 4/1) 52 days ago, suited by increase in trip. First run for yard after leaving A. Slattery. Big player on hurdling bow.
4
4th (4) (8/1 -23%) Lightening Gesture
8
8/1(-23%)
(4) Lightening Gesture 8/1, Fair handicapper at best on the Flat but no impact on sole hurdling outing to date. Has left Jack Jones since finishing down the field on the level at Wolverhampton in September.
7
5th (7) (28/1 +30%) French Romance
28
28/1(+30%)

100
100/1(-52%)
(3) Elmaftun 100/1, Well held in maidens/minor event on Flat for Kevin Prendergast and, having been off 4 months (also gelded), fared no better in a juvenile at Ludlow on hurdling debut 28 days ago.

|U| (6) (11/1 -100%) Beautiful Surprise
11
11/1(-100%)
(6) Beautiful Surprise 11/1, Fair handicapper on the Flat but not at her best last time and has been sold cheaply from Hugo Palmer. Worth a market check nonetheless.
(7) Apple Rock 1.25/1, Slipped in weights last term and returned with a career best victory in a 7-runner handicap hurdle at Southwell (24.3f, soft) 9 days ago. The one to beat racing from same mark here.
8
2nd (8) (22/1 +12%) Iron Horse
22
22/1(+12%)
(8) Iron Horse 22/1, Presumably had his problems to be so lightly raced for his age, though was runner-up in a C&D event last season. Pulled up again on his latest outing, though, and others have more solid profiles.
2
3rd (2) (1.88/1 +46%) Kotmask
1.88
1.88/1(+46%)
(2) Kotmask 1.88/1, Landed back-to-back juvenile events at Fontwell and Huntingdon last term. Shaped as if retaining all ability when fourth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Ascot (15.7f, good) 33 days ago and he could make more impact in this lower grade.
5
4th (5) (8/1 -7%) Ballintubber Boy
8
8/1(-7%)
(5) Ballintubber Boy 8/1, Clumsy sort overcame typical jumping errors to score at Stratford in October and ran respectably enough from this mark when sixth at Ludlow last month. Bit more required in this company with visor applied first time.
6
5th (6) (12/1 -60%) Sullivan's Brow
12
12/1(-60%)
(6) Sullivan's Brow 12/1, Irish point winner gained a maiden success under Rules when taking a 2m novice hurdle at Uttoxeter in January. Underperformed on handicap debut when last seen but is bred to improve for this trip.

25
25/1(-56%)
(4) Luckofthedraw 25/1, Better known as a chaser nowadays, scoring twice over 20f in that sphere last year. Has won fresh in the past but the combination of the 8-month absence and lack of recent hurdling promise means others are preferred.
3
|PU| (3) (11/1 -57%) Shalakar
11
11/1(-57%)
(3) Shalakar 11/1, Has only made the track once in nearly 4 years and didn't go with a great deal of promise on that outing. 13 lb lower in the weights than for last hurdles start but has to prove he retains ability.

66

0.62
0.62/1(-17%)
(6) Lime Avenue 0.62/1, Tongue strap on when easily winning 14-runner bumper (11/4) at Chepstow on debut 36 days ago. This Walk In the Park mare merits serious consideration on her hurdles debut over this longer trip.

5
5/1(+23%)
(7) Micronormous 5/1, Won 14-runner bumper at Exeter on debut 17 days ago. Now goes hurdling stepping up in trip and needs considering.

250
250/1(-100%)
(5) Kylenoe Dancer 250/1, Failed to progress in bumpers and no promise on Worcester hurdle debut after 7 months off. Unseated rider 1st at Ascot 13 days ago so others appeal more.

250
250/1(+17%)
(4) Heart Of The Sun 250/1, First run since leaving David Simcock when pulled up in novice hurdle at Sandown (16f, 400/1) on NH debut 25 days ago, tailed off when refused fourth. Hard to warm to.

1.1
1.1/1(+8%)
(5) Park Hill Dancer 1.1/1, Waldpark gelding. Half-brother to very smart hurdler Song For Someone. Successful in a point bumper in December and justified favouritism with ease on his Rules debut at Exeter in March. Open to improvement now going jumping.

40
40/1(-60%)

28
28/1(-40%)

14
14/1(-75%)
(1) Tommy Tracey 14/1, Runner-up in Irish point and showed fair level of ability when runner-up in an Ascot maiden hurdle in March. However, he offered little on his chasing debut when pulled up in handicap at Kempton (20.5f) 24 days ago and cheekpieces are reached for now.

(8) Midnight Glance 2.25/1, Modest hurdler who has bettered that form over fences and showed a good attitude to see off a progressive sort at Exeter fitted with cheekpieces 17 days ago. Should go well again.
4
3rd (4) (16/1 +27%) Milanford
16
16/1(+27%)
(4) Milanford 16/1, Useful novice chaser for Nick Mitchell in 2020/21. Lightly raced since and well held on both starts this season.
2
4th (2) (6.5/1 +54%) Premier D'troice
6.5
6.5/1(+54%)
(2) Premier D'troice 6.5/1, Capitalised on a much reduced mark when landing a Uttoxeter handicap in June but jumped none too fluently when disappointing there 5 months later. Others preferred.
7
|F| (7) (5/1 +23%) Smuggler's Blues
5
5/1(+23%)
(7) Smuggler's Blues 5/1, Had cheekpieces on first time when snapping a losing run at Warwick in January. Mixed record since but player on best form.
6
|PU| (6) (8/1 -23%) Galop Du Bosc
8
8/1(-23%)
(6) Galop Du Bosc 8/1, Hurdles winner in France who won 3 on the bounce between the flags during the spring and made an impressive debut for Tim Vaughan in small-field Chepstow handicap (23.6f, good) in October. Not so good following a 7 lb rise twice since but can bounce back.
5
|PU| (5) (10/1 -82%) Putdecashonthedash
10
10/1(-82%)
(5) Putdecashonthedash 10/1, C&D winner brought back to form with the addition of first-time blinkers when scoring at Plumpton 10 months ago. Could do better still with headgear retained, but the absence is a slight concern. Has had a breathing operation.
3
|PU| (3) (12/1 -50%) La Cavsa Nostra
12
12/1(-50%)
(3) La Cavsa Nostra 12/1, Low-mileage veteran who completed his third success over fences in 8-runner handicap at Hereford (25.2f) in February. Probably needed the run when pulled up at Bangor 8 months later, so should be closer to form with cheekpieces on.
LTO Selection:
13:25 Wincanton Handicap Chase (Class 4) 25f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(2) Darasso 1.1/1, Smart chaser. 3 lengths third of 4 to Blue Lord in Clonmel Oil Chase at Clonmel (20.4f, heavy, 3/1) 14 days ago. Big player dropped in class.
3
2nd (3) (5/1 -11%) Escaria Ten
5
5/1(-11%)
(3) Escaria Ten 5/1, Very smart chaser. Course winner. Below form ninth of 40 in Grand National (25/1) at Aintree (34.3f, good to soft), finding test too much. Off 7 months. Significantly down in trip. Respected.
1
3rd (1) (2.75/1 +21%) Cilaos Emery
2.75
2.75/1(+21%)
(1) Cilaos Emery 2.75/1, Smart chaser. C&D winner. Nine wins from 23 NH runs. 20/1, creditable 7½ lengths second of 6 to Easy Game in Devenish Chase at Fairyhouse (19.8f, good to soft). Off 7 months and prone to the odd mistakes but he's in top hands.
4
4th (4) (3.5/1 -40%) Mount Ida
3.5
3.5/1(-40%)
(4) Mount Ida 3.5/1, Smart chaser. Six wins from 16 NH runs. Unseated rider in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (29.2f, good to soft, 16/1) too far out to suggest outcome. Off 7 months. Back down in trip and needs to cut the errors out.
5
5th (5) (300/1 -20%) Indie Belle
300
300/1(-20%)
(5) Indie Belle 300/1, Modest hurdler. Creditable sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle (11/2) at Cork (16f, heavy) 25 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Significantly back up in trip. No appeal in this company.
(10) Oliver's Island 5/1, Without a win since early last year but went down by only the narrowest of margins to an in-form rival at Lingfield (23f, good to soft) last week. Fancied to be bang there with a repeat provided this doesn't come too soon.
8
2nd (8) (2/1 +56%) Lucky Bounce
2
2/1(+56%)
(8) Lucky Bounce 2/1, Little impact over hurdles/on the Flat this year but market support would put a different slant on things.
4
3rd (4) (8.5/1 +74%) Dora De Janeiro
8.5
8.5/1(+74%)
(4) Dora De Janeiro 8.5/1, It's now 18 months without a win and she again showed little back up in trip at Newcastle last month. Easy to look elsewhere despite her tumbling mark.
9
4th (9) (16/1 -33%) Milfolhas Has
16
16/1(-33%)
(9) Milfolhas Has 16/1, Minor promise only in bumpers/over hurdles and failed to improve for the switch to handicaps at Plumpton 17 days ago. Tough to recommend.
1
5th (1) (2.75/1 -38%) Imperial Hurricane
2.75
2.75/1(-38%)
(1) Imperial Hurricane 2.75/1, Shaped like a stayer in his bumper and has ran similarly in novice/maiden hurdles. Should be suited by going up in trip now handicapping so he makes plenty of appeal on return.
3
|PU| (3) (12/1 +25%) Ali Star Bert
12
12/1(+25%)
(3) Ali Star Bert 12/1, Opened his account in 23f handicap hurdle at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve. Unable to land a blow on both subsequent starts earlier in the year but he's worth a second look from just 1 lb above his last winning mark on reappearance.
2
|PU| (2) (14/1 -65%) Baghdad Central
14
14/1(-65%)
(2) Baghdad Central 14/1, Winning Irish pointer but well held both completed starts over hurdles and took a heavy fall at Wetherby when last seen back in February. One to look out for should support arrive for this return/handicap debut.
7
|PU| (7) (14/1 -17%) Having A Barney
14
14/1(-17%)
(7) Having A Barney 14/1, Showed only modest form in a couple of weak winter bumpers for Ben Clarke and looked in need of the experience all 3 starts over hurdles. Cheekpieces/tongue tie go on today for this handicap debut and worth monitoring in the betting having had a breathing operation.
6
|PU| (6) (16/1 +36%) Hideo
16
16/1(+36%)
(6) Hideo 16/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chaser in France but yet to fire for this yard despite plummeting in the weights, making no impression on return at Hexham recently.
11
|PU| (11) (22/1 +45%) Stoney Street
22
22/1(+45%)
(11) Stoney Street 22/1, Yet to offer much over hurdles this season and quickly stepped back up in trip today after last month's handicap debut. Cheekpieces applied.
5
|PU| (5) (50/1 +38%) High Yield
50
50/1(+38%)
(5) High Yield 50/1, Didn't show much in bumpers and having shaped like a stayer in his qualifying runs over hurdles, offered little on softer ground than previously on handicap debut at Newcastle a fortnight ago. Tongue tie back on today.
12
|PU| (12) (125/1 +17%) L'es Fremantle
125
125/1(+17%)
(12) L'es Fremantle 125/1, Sole win from 60 runs came at this track but he's achieved very little of worth in recent times.
(8) Mount Tempest 4.5/1, Walk In The Park gelding who showed much more than on his sole outing in bumpers when sixth of 14 on his Chepstow hurdling debut (19.4f) 29 days ago, no extra final 1f after making quite a promising move early in the straight. Drop in trip looks a good move and he's the type to improve.
5
2nd (5) (0.62/1 +44%) Georges Saint
0.62
0.62/1(+44%)
(5) Georges Saint 0.62/1, Dual chase winner in the mud in France who made an encouraging yard debut when third at Haydock (15.6f) in December. Failed to build on that promise at Exeter and Sandown but improved on the back of a breathing op/8 months off when second in 19.6f handicap at Bangor 22 days ago. Leading claims.
7
3rd (7) (25/1 -525%) Imperial Bede
25
25/1(-525%)
(7) Imperial Bede 25/1, Successful on the second of 3 bumper starts in France but ran no sort of race on his British debut in Aintree Grade 2 on final outing. Still early days though and could get back on track now hurdling.
4
4th (4) (11/1 -38%) General Medrano
11
11/1(-38%)
(4) General Medrano 11/1, Showed promise both starts in bumpers and did the same sent hurdling when eighth of 15 in 2m novice at Chepstow 29 days ago, unable to sustain effort after making headway 2 out. That form is working out well and he shouldn't be underestimated with improvement likely.
1
5th (1) (200/1 +0%) Adamhill
200
200/1(+0%)
(1) Adamhill 200/1, Pulled up both starts between the flags and little encouragement in 3 bumpers/Uttoxeter maiden hurdle under Rules.

6th (2) (9/1 +10%) Awesome Foursome
9
9/1(+10%)
(2) Awesome Foursome 9/1, Made a winning bumper debut in tenacious fashion at Worcester in May. However, well below expectations switched to hurdles there 6 months later.
3
7th (3) (10/1 +64%) Downsman
10
10/1(+64%)
(3) Downsman 10/1, Fairly useful on Flat, probably stays 1¾m, failed to build on previous promise last time. Market perhaps best guide to expectations now hurdling.
LTO Selection:
13:47 Leicester Novices Hurdle (Class 3) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(3) Shutupshirley 1/1, Much improved stepped up in trip when easily opening his account in 13-runner handicap hurdle at Exeter (21.6f) 11 days ago. The one to beat under a 7 lb penalty.

5.5
5.5/1(+21%)
(10) The Wise Traveller 5.5/1, Returned from 5 months off with win in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Fontwell (25.8f) in August. Back from another break now and he can't be ruled out.
4
3rd (4) (14/1 -133%) Harry's Hottie
14
14/1(-133%)
(4) Harry's Hottie 14/1, Lightly-raced sort who got off the mark in 6-runner handicap hurdle at Plumpton (25f) 45 days ago. Needs considering despite taking a 4 lb rise.
2
4th (2) (28/1 +0%) The Bold Thady
28
28/1(+0%)
(2) The Bold Thady 28/1, Has shown a fair level of ability over hurdles but weak finishes on his last 3 outings raise a few doubts, cheekpieces on when third at Hereford last time. Others appeal more.

5th (6) (40/1 -233%) Sixty Dollars More
40
40/1(-233%)
(6) Sixty Dollars More 40/1, Still a maiden and cheekpieces on for 1st time when pulled up in handicap hurdle at Chepstow (19.4f) 29 days ago. Has work to do.

50
50/1(-79%)
(9) Bomber's Moon 50/1, Remains a maiden after 25 runs and below-par fifth in handicap hurdle at Huntingdon (25f) 32 days ago. Others more persuasive.

11
11/1(-38%)
(1) Cafe Pushkin 11/1, Fair maiden hurdler who posted respectable sixth of 11 in handicap at Hereford (21.7f) 23 days ago. Shortlisted.

80
80/1(-220%)

6.5
6.5/1(+7%)
(5) Farceur De Maulne 6.5/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time when opening his account at Worcester (23f) in May. Good third off 10 lb higher mark at Ffos Las (3m) 53 days ago. Not taken lightly.
12

9
9/1(+0%)
(12) What's My Line 9/1, Improved form to get off the mark with cheekpieces back on in 14-runner handicap hurdle at Fontwell (21.8f) 43 days ago. In the picture despite taking a 7 lb rise.
13
|PU| (13) (20/1 +0%) Universal Island
20
20/1(+0%)
(13) Universal Island 20/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 6/4, looked an awkward ride when fourth of 7 at Plumpton (25f) 17 days ago. Tongue strap on now with more needed from 6 lb out of the handicap.

33
33/1(+0%)
(11) Prince Cleni 33/1, Modest maiden hurdler who posted a creditable third of 5 in handicap chase at Fakenham (21.2f) on his debut over fences 16 days ago. Much respected back in this sphere.

1.1
1.1/1(+12%)
(6) Innatendue 1.1/1, Dual bumper winner in France. Fairly useful hurdler. Off 6 months, 2/1, bit below form third of 14 in novice hurdle at Wexford (16.4f, heavy) 31 days ago. May have needed that and she boasts strong claims here.
9

7
7/1(+7%)
(9) Jeepydoff Meel 7/1, Promising individual. 40/1, fifth of 20 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (20.7f, good) on debut 51 days ago. Down in trip. Open to progress.

(13) Surviving Murmansk 250/1, Poor maiden. 300/1, 35½ lengths last of 4 to Brazil in Fishery Lane Hurdle at Naas (16f, soft) on jumps debut 19 days ago, showing little aptitude for the job.

4th (5) (2/1 +27%) Supasunrise
2
2/1(+27%)
(5) Supasunrise 2/1, Didn't feature last season but, having been given a chance by the handicapper, made much more of an impact when placed at Stratford and Uttoxeter this season. Respected now going chasing.

20
20/1(-100%)
(3) Knocknamona 20/1, Better known as a chaser, scoring over fences at Newcastle last season. Below par since but dangerous if bouncing back off this mark.

10
10/1(-67%)
(6) Onenightintown 10/1, Temperamental sort who isn't doing much wrong of late and was back to winning ways with a bit in hand at Sedgefield. Good second at Newcastle since and worthy of consideration.

9/1(+18%)
(7) Von Melas 9/1, Didn't show much over hurdles last term and not enough encouragement in 3 chase outings this time around to make him of interest. Cheekpieces back on.
(3) Dollar Bae 1.25/1, Easy winner of sole point and followed up in a Wincanton bumper on Rules debut. Has made a bright start over hurdles, placed in mares' events at Warwick and Ludlow, bumping into a classy rival last time.

(2) Toughasoldboots 22/1, 4-y-o who landed small-field mares' maiden hurdle on Rules debut at Huntingdon (19.6f) in May. Not in anything like that form since, including on handicap debut 137 days ago. Needs a revival.

(4) Somewhat Cloudy 8/1, Won thin mares' maiden hurdle at Huntingdon last season and made an encouraging return in Carlisle handicap, splitting subsequent winners. Down 2 lb and could feature back over 2m.

12
12/1(-71%)
(1) Angels Landing 12/1, Fair 11f winner on the level who showed plenty over hurdles last term, placed off this mark in a Ludlow handicap that worked out well in March. Folded tamely in Flat handicap 10 weeks ago but dangerous to dismiss here.

(4) Kingsmill Gin 2.75/1, Showed improved form to shed her maiden tag at Taunton last December. Made a respectable return to action when 15 lengths third of 11 at Exeter (3m) last month. Claims if she can build on that.

5
5/1(-150%)
(2) No Hubs No Hoobs 5/1, Failed to trouble the judge over hurdles but finished runner-up at the second time of asking over fences at Lingfield 23 days ago. Lightly-raced profile gives him the potential to build on that. Player.

2nd (9) (3.33/1 -67%) Foxy Girl
3.33
3.33/1(-67%)
(9) Foxy Girl 3.33/1, Fairly useful form when runner-up to Matilda Du Berlais (winner again since) in listed newcomers race at Auteuil (14.9f, soft) 19 months ago. Left David Cottin and she makes plenty of appeal on yard debut/reappearance.
1
3rd (1) (12/1 -9%) A Law Of Her Own
12
12/1(-9%)
(1) A Law Of Her Own 12/1, Career best when winning 15-runner bumper at this course (15.7f, good to soft, 3/1) 6 weeks ago, leading under pressure final 1f. Makes hurdles debut. One to consider.
5
4th (5) (6/1 -20%) Mollys Glory
6
6/1(-20%)
(5) Mollys Glory 6/1, Fair hurdler. 10/11, went down narrowly on return from 9 months off when nose-second of 16 in maiden hurdle at this course (15.8f, good to soft) 4 weeks ago. Should be in the mix again.
3
5th (3) (18/1 -29%) Chautuaqua
18
18/1(-29%)
(3) Chautuaqua 18/1, Made a winning debut at Clonmel in March. Improved when 11¾ lengths sixth of 16 to Queens Gamble in listed bumper at Cheltenham (16.4f, good, 100/1) 19 days ago. Makes hurdles debut.
11
6th (11) (33/1 -65%) Hamartia
33
33/1(-65%)
(11) Hamartia 33/1, Shaped with some promise when fourth of 12 in maiden hurdle (14/1) at Ballinrobe (17.7f, good) on debut 3 months ago. Open to progress.
6
7th (6) (6.5/1 -8%) Moon Rise Beauty
6.5
6.5/1(-8%)
(6) Moon Rise Beauty 6.5/1, Fair form when off the mark at third attempt in bumpers at Downpatrick (18.7f) in August. Left hurdling debut form behind when second of 16 in maiden hurdle (11/2) at Limerick (16f, soft) 39 days ago and makes plenty of appeal given connections.
13
8th (13) (100/1 +0%) Lovely Reaction
100
100/1(+0%)
(13) Lovely Reaction 100/1, 40/1, ninth of 22 in maiden hurdle at Punchestown (19.4f, good to soft) on NH debut 12 days ago. Looks one for the longer term.
7
9th (7) (300/1 -20%) Cathys Quest
300
300/1(-20%)
(7) Cathys Quest 300/1, No impact in maiden hurdles so easy to look elsewhere returning from 5 months off the track.
2
10th (2) (28/1 -300%) Cash The Cheque
28
28/1(-300%)
(2) Cash The Cheque 28/1, Has improved with each run to date and deservedly got off the mark in 14-runner bumper (7/2) at Sligo (18f, good) in August. Similar form when runner-up at Down Royal next time and now makes her hurdling debut after 3 months off.
15
11th (15) (150/1 +0%) Special Protector
150
150/1(+0%)
(15) Special Protector 150/1, Poor maiden on the Flat. Seventh of 15 in handicap at Gowran (8.3f, heavy) 44 days ago. Tough to see her featuring on hurdling debut.
10
12th (10) (300/1 -100%) Glenvara Lady
300
300/1(-100%)
(10) Glenvara Lady 300/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. 125/1, again finished well held when tenth of 16 in maiden hurdle at Clonmel (19.3f, heavy) 14 days ago.
14
13th (14) (250/1 -67%) Pana To Milan
250
250/1(-67%)
(14) Pana To Milan 250/1, Well held in pair of maiden hurdles 7 months apart so can only be watched.
8
14th (8) (300/1 -20%) Costaweefortune
300
300/1(-20%)
(8) Costaweefortune 300/1, No show in bumper/maiden hurdles so she's impossible to fancy on previous exploits.
12
|PU| (12) (300/1 -20%) Knockane Lady
300
300/1(-20%)
(12) Knockane Lady 300/1, Showed no sign of ability in a bumper and shaped similarly sent hurdling after 6 months off at Galway recently. Hood applied today.
LTO Selection:
14:32 Thurles Maiden Hurdle 16f Race Speed Rating Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
(2) Ballinslea Bridge 12/1, Returned to form when runner-up over hurdles at Southwell in March. Well held on his next 2 starts, but after 5 months off finished second of 4 back over fences at Huntingdon (23.6f, soft) 23 days ago. Shortlisted.
6
2nd (6) (1/1 +39%) Future Benefits
1
1/1(+39%)
(6) Future Benefits 1/1, Point winner who didn't show much over hurdles but, having attracted support, proved a different proposition when making a successful chase debut in novice handicap at Newcastle (23.4f, soft) 2 weeks ago. Can follow up.
8
3rd (8) (6/1 -71%) Shanbally Rose
6
6/1(-71%)
(8) Shanbally Rose 6/1, After 4 months off, finally opened her account in handicap at Perth (20.1f, good) in September. Improved on that effort when runner-up at Musselburgh next time, just failing having made jumping errors. Respected back up in trip.
7
4th (7) (10/1 -25%) Surdoue De Ballon
10
10/1(-25%)
(7) Surdoue De Ballon 10/1, Fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser in France, though it's now twenty-five runs since his sole win in 2019. Did at least show more for current yard when third of 9 in handicap chase at Fontwell (26f, soft) on return last month.
1
5th (1) (40/1 -82%) Souriyan
40
40/1(-82%)
(1) Souriyan 40/1, Useful winning hurdler/chaser at best but has lost his way, well beaten both starts this season after nearly 3 years off. Makes little appeal.
4
|PU| (4) (4.5/1 +31%) Moore On Tour
4.5
4.5/1(+31%)
(4) Moore On Tour 4.5/1, Third on sole start in Irish points. Showed more than first time up over hurdles when third in 6-runner maiden at Huntingdon a year ago. However, wasn't seen again until well held at Wetherby 33 days ago. Makes chase/handicap debut.
5
|PU| (5) (16/1 +20%) Chase The Wind
16
16/1(+20%)
(5) Chase The Wind 16/1, Made a winning reappearance at this C&D in September, rallying to lead again close home. However, failed to repeat that effort when pulled up at Sedgefield next time, so bounce back called for returned to this venue.
3
|PU| (3) (18/1 -13%) Sigurd
18
18/1(-13%)
(3) Sigurd 18/1, Having dropped in the weights, recorded a third success at Wetherby (24.2f) in March. Shaped as if needing the run after 8 months off when down the field at the same C&D 19 days ago. Others more persuasive.
(3) Obey The Rules 2.75/1, Scored at Market Rasen in August and placed on each of his 4 subsequent starts, for all last month's effort at Musselburgh was a backward step in form terms. Usual cheekpieces back on. Could be the safest option.
4
2nd (4) (1.1/1 +45%) Legendary Rhythm
1.1
1.1/1(+45%)
(4) Legendary Rhythm 1.1/1, Stand out effort over fences when third over C&D in February. Shaped as if better for the run back over hurdles after 6 months off when seventh at Uttoxeter in October but disappointing back there 3 weeks later. Cheekpieces on returned to the larger obstacles.
5
3rd (5) (3.5/1 +71%) Uncle O
3.5
3.5/1(+71%)
(5) Uncle O 3.5/1, Low-grade performer but ran pretty close to form when third of 7 at Southwell on Tuesday.
2
4th (2) (8/1 +20%) Rizzardo
8
8/1(+20%)
(2) Rizzardo 8/1, Now 10 lb below his last winning mark, gained at Fontwell a year ago. Should strip fitter with last month's return under his belt but he isn't one for maximum faith.
LTO Selection:
14:47 Leicester Handicap Chase (Class 4) 16f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 4 race.
(1) Filey Bay 0.62/1, Had plenty in hand when making a winning start for the Emmet Mullins yard in 2m Doncaster handicap last Saturday. 7 lb penalty doesn't look enough to stop him with further progress on the cards.
7
2nd (7) (3/1 +33%) Shallow River
3
3/1(+33%)
(7) Shallow River 3/1, Won a bumper here on Boxing Day last year and followed up in a 2m Huntingdon novice hurdle a month later. Lacks experience compared to most of these but he's potentially useful. Very interesting contender.
5
3rd (5) (18/1 +28%) Midnight Ginger
18
18/1(+28%)
(5) Midnight Ginger 18/1, Consistent mare who gained her fourth career win when rallying to lead again late at Chepstow (19.5f) in April. Creditable second of 4 at Ffos Las 4 weeks later. Off since. Each-way claims if she's ready to roll.
11
4th (11) (14/1 +65%) Amelia's Dance
14
14/1(+65%)
(11) Amelia's Dance 14/1, Scored 3 times over hurdles last season. Creditable third on both outings this season and being dropped 2 lb can only help. Each-way claims.
12
5th (12) (22/1 -83%) Sergeant
22
22/1(-83%)
(12) Sergeant 22/1, Won a 2m Stratford handicap in September and went very close to another success at Huntingdon 12 days ago. Should give another good account of himself.
8
6th (8) (28/1 +15%) Coolnaugh Haze
28
28/1(+15%)
(8) Coolnaugh Haze 28/1, Won a 2m Huntingdon handicap in April and runner-up at Ludlow the following month. However, he hasn't shown enough in 2 handicaps this autumn to suggest he's likely to add to his tally now.
6
7th (6) (12/1 +0%) Trolley Boy
12
12/1(+0%)
(6) Trolley Boy 12/1, Made all in a Newcastle bumper for Ed Bethell last winter and reappeared to make a winning start over hurdles for his new yard at Worcester in July. Better form when second in a C&D novice 4 months later. Likely has more to come now handicapping.
3
8th (3) (66/1 -65%) Across The Line
66
66/1(-65%)
(3) Across The Line 66/1, Fairly useful hurdler/chase for Dan Skelton. Won a Stratford hunter chase for this yard in May but has found life harder in handicap company since. Latest Leicester hurdle third came in a 4-runner race and he's opposable in this much deeper affair.
2
9th (2) (80/1 -60%) Fast Buck
80
80/1(-60%)
(2) Fast Buck 80/1, Very useful form for Paul Nicholls in 2020/21 but below par last term for Dan Skelton. Hasn't got competitive in a Kempton listed hurdle and course handicap chase since joining this stable and it's probably best to look elsewhere.
10
|PU| (10) (16/1 -33%) Overpriced Mixer
16
16/1(-33%)
(10) Overpriced Mixer 16/1, Dual Flat winner who made a successful hurdles debut at Kempton in autumn 2020. Shaped as though plenty of ability remains when third on his return from an absence at Plumpton in October but dropped away tamely back at Kempton since. That leaves him with a bit to prove.
LTO Selection:
14:55 Wincanton Handicap Hurdle (Class 3) 15f Race Class Flow
The chart reads from right to left to today's class 3 race.
(14) Popova 20/1, Fifth on completed start in 2 points (Apr 24). Rachael Blackmore on stable's other runner but she's still one to keep an eye on in the market.

3.5
3.5/1(-5%)
(15) Purse Price 3.5/1, Promising sort. 14/1, third of 16 in maiden hurdle at this course (15.8f, good to soft) 28 days ago. Should improve again and leading claims here.

(4) Captains Nephew 28/1, Twice-raced maiden. 200/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, eighth of 23 in novice hurdle at Navan (20f, heavy) 4 days ago, running on. Down in trip.

4th (7) (10/1 +9%) I Am Rocco
10
10/1(+9%)
(7) I Am Rocco 10/1, Ran twice in bumpers for Nicky Henderson in the spring, showing ability first occasion. Betting should guide now hurdling for Willie Mullins.

2.5
2.5/1(+44%)
(12) Musta Lovea Lovea 2.5/1, Fair hurdler. 50/1, good fifth of 25 in novice hurdle at Naas (16f, soft) 19 days ago. Stable having good spell. Solid claims.

2.25
2.25/1(+32%)

50
50/1(+67%)
(10) Mac's Xpress 50/1, Thrice-raced maiden under NH rules. 66/1, tenth of 19 in novice hurdle at Navan (20f, soft) 18 days ago. Back down in trip.

8
8/1(-60%)
(3) Aslukwoodhavit 8/1, Fair form in bumpers for Willie Mullins. Off 15 months but another leading trainer ahead of this hurdle debut. Interesting runner, particularly if backed.

8.5
8.5/1(-183%)
(3) Donnacha 8.5/1, Jet Away gelding who came in third of 12 in bumper (20/1) at Chepstow (16f, good to soft) on debut 37 days ago. Holds good claims.

(10) Nulli Secundus 50/1, £2,000 3-y-o, Califet mare. Sister to bumper winner Emzara, and half-sister to 2 winners, including fairly useful hurdler Here Comes Johny. Other newcomers appeal more on this occasion.

(6) Mr Bramley 8/1, Schiaparelli gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including fairly useful hurdlers Glimpse of Gala and Mr Scrumpy. Betting can prove a good indicator.

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.
