7 1st (7) (1.5/1 +25%) Green Book	1.5 1.5/1(+25%)	(7) Green Book 1.5/1, Much improved on the level this year for in-form yard and ran well on form conceding race fitness to an unbeaten rival when runner-up over C&D 17 days ago. Remains capable of better so shortlisted.
1 2nd (1) (1.62/1 +19%) Chti Balko	1.62 1.62/1(+19%)	(1) Chti Balko 1.62/1, 3-time C&D winner who took this contest last year but struggled in subsequent outings. Shaped as if better for the run on reappearance so expected to feature from this mark under optimum conditions.
4 4th (4) (66/1 -230%) Fusain	66 66/1(-230%)	(4) Fusain 66/1, Fairly useful chaser who was below form on his final couple of outings for Henry de Bromhead and has been picked up quite cheaply by new connections. Worth a market check back over timber.

3 1st (3) (5/1 -43%) Planned Paradise	5 5/1(-43%)	(3) Planned Paradise 5/1, Second of 2 finishers sole start in Irish points (Dec 2020). Better effort in maiden hurdles when sixth at Worcester on debut for this yard in June and type to do better now handicapping.
4 2nd (4) (9/1 +25%) Les's Legacy	9 9/1(+25%)	(4) Les's Legacy 9/1, Maiden who fared as well as could be expected from well out of the weights when fourth of 6 at Musselburgh 12 days ago. Back on his correct mark here.
9 3rd (9) (3.5/1 +50%) Brickadank	3.5 3.5/1(+50%)	(9) Brickadank 3.5/1, Still to get his head in front but he posted good second of 10 in handicap hurdle at Carlisle (20f) in October. Didn't finish race off with much conviction here last week but return to 2m will suit.
8 4th (8) (3.2/1 +51%) Edmond Dantes	3.2 3.2/1(+51%)	(8) Edmond Dantes 3.2/1, Tailed off in a 4-y-o hurdle in France but having undergone a breathing operation, he has hinted at better to come in handicaps this autumn. Unexposed and one to consider.
10 5th (10) (7.5/1 -50%) Baraboy	7.5 7.5/1(-50%)	(10) Baraboy 7.5/1, Back to peak fitness on third start back from a lengthy absence when landing handicap hurdle at Hexham last month. Fair third at Sedgefield since and he can remain competitive.
6 6th (6) (12/1 -9%) Lleyton	12 12/1(-9%)	(6) Lleyton 12/1, Not straightforward and was again disappointing (had his supporters) at Wetherby in March. Pulled up on reappearance 16 days ago so has a lot to prove.
2 7th (2) (11/1 +56%) Hajey	11 11/1(+56%)	(2) Hajey 11/1, Modest maiden on Flat who is not straightforward and has gone backwards from a mildly encouraging hurdling debut in March.
5 8th (5) (66/1 -32%) Jess's Corner	66 66/1(-32%)	(5) Jess's Corner 66/1, Yet to win a race of any description and hard to get excited about both efforts for this yard in recent weeks.
7 9th (7) (28/1 +15%) Stowaway John	28 28/1(+15%)	(7) Stowaway John 28/1, Displayed ability in bumpers for Ronald O'Neill but yet to make any impact over hurdles for current yard, often failing to impress with his jumping.
1 10th (1) (7/1 -155%) Royal Reserve	7 7/1(-155%)	(1) Royal Reserve 7/1, Well held both starts over fences returning from a lengthy lay-off in May. Bit more like it returned to timber when third at Ayr fitted with headgear last month and he's a previous C&D winner.
11 11th (11) (100/1 -203%) Filou D'anjou	100 100/1(-203%)	(11) Filou D'anjou 100/1, Looks limited and he's 8 lb out of the weights.

3 (3) (10/1 -43%) Fantasio D'alene	10 10/1(-43%)	(3) Fantasio D'alene 10/1, Useful in bumpers. Fairly useful form over hurdles to date and yet to be asked for effort when falling 4 out at Navan (20f) at the start of the month. Fancied to be in the mix.

20 2nd (20) (18/1 +45%) My Design	18 18/1(+45%)	(20) My Design 18/1, Lightly-raced maiden under NH rules. Very good third of 12 in novice hurdle (14/1) at Thurles (23.2f, good) 30 days ago, suited by increase in trip. Needs to keep the errors at bay.
16 3rd (16) (11/1 +56%) Vintage Prosseco	11 11/1(+56%)	(16) Vintage Prosseco 11/1, Bumper winner who shaped well when runner-up in a Down Royal maiden (17f) on hurdles bow 13 months ago. Hasn't scaled same heights since though, including when fifth over 19f at Naas in November.

Form	Odds	Runs
15 1st (15) (4/1 +38%) Ardhill	4 4/1(+38%)	(15) Ardhill 4/1, Just one effort of note in Ireland so far and hopes here very much pinned on the first-time blinkers sparking improvement.
10 2nd (10) (6/1 +8%) Imphal	6 6/1(+8%)	(10) Imphal 6/1, Has sprouted wings since upped in trip and left with too much to do when bidding for the four-timer at Lingfield (23f) last time. Will benefit from stronger handling here and he needs considering.
8 3rd (8) (20/1 -122%) Next Left	20 20/1(-122%)	(8) Next Left 20/1, Stepped up on hurdles debut when hitting the crossbar in 20.5f Plumpton novice last month. That form is nothing special, but he's another who possesses potential now upped in trip/handicapping.
13 4th (13) (6.5/1 +13%) So Said I	6.5 6.5/1(+13%)	(13) So Said I 6.5/1, Seemingly benefited form the step up to this trip when opened her account in a mares' novice at Exeter. Mark looks fair now handicapping and she should have a part to play.
6 5th (6) (20/1 +20%) Honor Grey	20 20/1(+20%)	(6) Honor Grey 20/1, Runner-up in Ayr maiden hurdle in January and bettered his handicap debut effort when third upped to 23.6f on return at Chepstow. Should pick up a race before long, but others preferred this time.
3 6th (3) (20/1 +0%) Glencassley	20 20/1(+0%)	(3) Glencassley 20/1, Landed the odds on first 2 starts in this sphere prior to coming up short in a Grade 2 Cheltenham novice. Since undergone a wind op and needs to raise his game now pitched into a handicap.
14 7th (14) (28/1 +20%) Delgany Monarch	28 28/1(+20%)	(14) Delgany Monarch 28/1, Performed well above market expectations when third on hurdles debut at Lingfield last November, but it's fair to say that he has subsequently failed to build on that promise.
2 8th (2) (12/1 -71%) Go Steady	12 12/1(-71%)	(2) Go Steady 12/1, Five-time chase winner who, following a wind op, opened his account in this sphere on return at Leicester (20.5f) 16 days ago. 5 lb rise fair and should be in the mix if his stamina holds out.
4 9th (4) (40/1 -150%) Father John	40 40/1(-150%)	(4) Father John 40/1, Bumper winner who left previous hurdles form well behind when scoring at Worcester in September. Solid third off this mark on subsequent Carlisle handicap bow (2½m), but this is more demanding.
12 \|F\| (12) (12/1 +14%) Pass Me By	12 12/1(+14%)	(12) Pass Me By 12/1, Confirmed hurdles debut promise when battling well to land the odds in 6-runner Huntingdon novice (25f). Good chance that there's better to come now that he ventures down the handicap route.
11 \|F\| (11) (66/1 -65%) Itsnotwhatyouthink	66 66/1(-65%)	(11) Itsnotwhatyouthink 66/1, Runner-up both starts in bumpers and hit frame in pair of novice hurdles at upto 20.5f thereafter. However, well held on handicap bow at Sandown when last seen in February.
16 10th (16) (9/1 +50%) Thirtyfourstitches	9 9/1(+50%)	(16) Thirtyfourstitches 9/1, Likeable front-runner who scored on debut for new yard at Fontwell in October. Good second here next time and latest run can be excused, so he's not without each-way hope in an open race.
9 11th (9) (50/1 -25%) Johnny B	50 50/1(-25%)	(9) Johnny B 50/1, More good efforts than bad ones last season, but no impact in a couple of runs this time round and he's now 0-10 over hurdles.
5 12th (5) (80/1 -264%) Enormouse	80 80/1(-264%)	(5) Enormouse 80/1, Showed fair level of ability when placed in maiden/novice company at Chepstow on final 2 starts of last season, but sizeable step forward needed now upped in trip for this handicap debut.
1 \|PU\| (1) (6/1 -33%) Young Butler	6 6/1(-33%)	(1) Young Butler 6/1, Built on hurdles debut promise at Chepstow (19.4f) when landing a 9-runner maiden over the same C&D. Opening mark looks fair and likely there's plenty more to come now faced with a stiffer test.
7 \|PU\| (7) (10/1 -11%) Gaulois	10 10/1(-11%)	(7) Gaulois 10/1, Placed in Irish maiden hurdles last term and performed to a similar level when third on yard debut at Chepstow(19.4f). Needs improvement now upped in trip for this handicap bow, but that's possible.

Form	Odds	Runs
5 (5) (12/1 +0%) Theotherside	12 12/1(+0%)	(5) Theotherside 12/1, Fairly useful filly who ran respectably on first run since leaving Richard Hannon when fourth of 10 in handicap at Southwell (6.1f) 2 days ago.
4 1st (4) (2.25/1 +32%) Arriviste	2.25 2.25/1(+32%)	(4) Arriviste 2.25/1, Fairly useful filly who was fifth in a listed event at Nottingham in April. Not at her best last 2 starts but can't be ruled out if returning to the pick of her form.
2 2nd (2) (10/1 +29%) Algheed	10 10/1(+29%)	(2) Algheed 10/1, C&D winner in August but ran below form down in grade at Wolverhampton (6.1f, 8/1) on final start in October.
3 3rd (3) (1.38/1 +8%) Amber Island	1.38 1.38/1(+8%)	(3) Amber Island 1.38/1, Proved at least as good as ever after 6 months off when winning 7-runner handicap at this C&D (AW) 17 days ago, by ½ length from Unique Cut. Looks the one to beat.
1 4th (1) (20/1 -25%) Adabbah	20 20/1(-25%)	(1) Adabbah 20/1, Lightly-raced winner who wasn't seen to best effect when 2½ lengths sixth of 7 to Amber Island in handicap at this C&D (AW, 12/1) 17 days ago, left poorly placed. Not without hope.
6 5th (6) (3.5/1 -27%) Unique Cut	3.5 3.5/1(-27%)	(6) Unique Cut 3.5/1, Lightly-raced winner who took another step forward on first run since leaving Simon & Ed Crisford when very good ½-length second of 7 to Amber Island in a C&D handicap 17 days ago. Respected.

7 (7) (8/1 +0%) Sashenka	8 8/1(+0%)	(7) Sashenka 8/1, Fairly useful on Flat (stays 2m) and again knocked on the door over hurdles when beaten only by one on a roll at Hereford in October. Disappointing in a deeper handicap at Cheltenham.
3 1st (3) (11/1 +21%) Haute Estime	11 11/1(+21%)	(3) Haute Estime 11/1, Stoutly bred but showed plenty of speed as she left her bumper form behind when making a winning start in this sphere at Kelso. Bit disappointing here a month ago but is now upped in trip.
2 2nd (2) (1.1/1 -10%) Nina The Terrier	1.1 1.1/1(-10%)	(2) Nina The Terrier 1.1/1, Bumper winner who completed hat-trick over hurdles in novice company at Newbury last month. Probably booked for second in a listed race back at that venue 3 weeks ago and she sets the standard.
1 3rd (1) (2.5/1 +29%) Current Mood	2.5 2.5/1(+29%)	(1) Current Mood 2.5/1, Dual 3m point scorer who won her first 2 starts over hurdles in good style during the autumn. Limitations perhaps exposed in Graded company at Cheltenham but return to this trip will suit.
4 4th (4) (7.5/1 +53%) Mayhem Mya	7.5 7.5/1(+53%)	(4) Mayhem Mya 7.5/1, Won first 2 starts in bumpers and far from disgraced in better company, fourth on reappearance in listed company at Cheltenham last month despite pulling hard. Pitched in quite deep on hurdles bow.
6 5th (6) (14/1 +13%) Russian Rumour	14 14/1(+13%)	(6) Russian Rumour 14/1, Fair stayer on the Flat and landed a bit of a gamble on hurdles debut at Lingfield (19.5f) 3 weeks ago. This asks a different question.
5 6th (5) (16/1 -14%) Miss Milano	16 16/1(-14%)	(5) Miss Milano 16/1, Closely related to bumper winner Mcgregor's Cottage. Promising start when third at Ayr 4 weeks ago and she's open to progress, but this is a tough assignment.

3 2nd (3) (4.5/1 -29%) Houston Texas	4.5 4.5/1(-29%)	(3) Houston Texas 4.5/1, Winner at third attempt in Irish points, but offered little in 3 starts for Alistair Whillans last season and effort on return/debut for new yard in a Kelso novice hurdle wasn't overly encouraging.
4 3rd (4) (14/1 +13%) Choctaw Brave	14 14/1(+13%)	(4) Choctaw Brave 14/1, Placed multiple times in Irish points, but no show in a trio of novice hurdles and vast improvement needed now tackling the larger obstacles.
2 4th (2) (1.25/1 +50%) Tango Boy	1.25 1.25/1(+50%)	(2) Tango Boy 1.25/1, Bumper winner who showed fairly useful form over hurdles. Possibly needed the run on return/chase debut at Worcester (16.5f) and needs considering back up in trip here off a 3 lb lower mark.

1 1st (1) (1.2/1 +40%) Shakem Up'arry	1.2 1.2/1(+40%)	(1) Shakem Up'arry 1.2/1, Fairly useful winning hurdler who was running a good first race over fences when unseated rider 8th in handicap at Ffos Las (16f, soft) 41 days ago. Remains with plenty of potential in this sphere.
6 2nd (6) (3/1 +33%) Casa Tall	3 3/1(+33%)	(6) Casa Tall 3/1, Made it 2-3 this season with career-best effort in 5-runner handicap chase at Exeter (17.5f) 27 days ago. Up 3 lb but he remains weighted to go close once more.
3 3rd (3) (7/1 -56%) Destined To Shine	7 7/1(-56%)	(3) Destined To Shine 7/1, Scored at Uttoxeter following a breathing op last October and he ended last term with three excellent runner-up finishes. Has won off a break too, so he's a player resuming after more wind surgery.
5 4th (5) (50/1 -25%) Est Illic	50 50/1(-25%)	(5) Est Illic 50/1, Dual handicap chase winner at Bangor and Doncaster last winter but he proved a big disappointment on his return when pulled up in Ffos Las handicap. Needs to bounce back now.
2 \|F\| (2) (3.33/1 -21%) Word Has It	3.33 3.33/1(-21%)	(2) Word Has It 3.33/1, Progressive hurdler who easily got off the mark at Carlisle before following up under a penalty at Kelso when last seen in March. This is no easy introduction to fences but he can't be ruled out.

6 2nd (6) (2.5/1 +62%) Scottish Accent	2.5 2.5/1(+62%)	(6) Scottish Accent 2.5/1, Gained breakthrough win at Carlisle in February. Had wind op but he looked rusty after 8 months off when sixth of 10 in handicap over C&D 21 days ago. Much respected with cheekpieces refitted now.
3 3rd (3) (3.33/1 -33%) Fete Champetre	3.33 3.33/1(-33%)	(3) Fete Champetre 3.33/1, Fairly useful hurdle winner who has made a promising start over fences, runner-up in 2m Ayr handicap 26 days ago. He looks to have more to offer, and is weighted to go one better.
2 4th (2) (5/1 -67%) Brelan D'As	5 5/1(-67%)	(2) Brelan D'As 5/1, C&D winner but he jumped less well than usual when last of 3 in 2m handicap at Doncaster 22 days ago. Sort to bounce back.
1 5th (1) (3.5/1 -17%) Defi Sacre	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(1) Defi Sacre 3.5/1, Back to form when fourth of 5 in minor chase at Fontainebleau (17.9f) 19 days ago. Visor replaces cheekpieces now, and he can't be ruled out off an easing mark.
5 6th (5) (9/1 +25%) Ard Chros	9 9/1(+25%)	(5) Ard Chros 9/1, More miss than hit since his Carlisle success 13 months ago, though he looked rusty after 8 months off when fifth of 10 in 23f handicap at Kelso 13 days ago. He needs a big step forward.

Form	Odds	Runs
10 (10) (20/1 +0%) Golden Whisky	20 20/1(+0%)	(10) Golden Whisky 20/1, Ended last season in fine fettle, winning at Ludlow (20f, heavy) before a couple of good placed efforts. Shaped as if needing the run at Aintree on return and should be much closer to form here.
7 1st (7) (3.5/1 -17%) Palmers Hill	3.5 3.5/1(-17%)	(7) Palmers Hill 3.5/1, Low-mileage 8-y-o who is unexposed over fences and had a bit up his sleeve when scoring at Wetherby 5 weeks. Every chance he's still ahead of his mark.
2 2nd (2) (14/1 -27%) Diego Du Charmil	14 14/1(-27%)	(2) Diego Du Charmil 14/1, Course winner in 2019 who produced a much more encouraging effort than on his return back over fences when fifth at this course 4 weeks ago. Down 3 lb and not one to rule out.
11 4th (11) (4.5/1 +59%) Zhiguli	4.5 4.5/1(+59%)	(11) Zhiguli 4.5/1, Improved in handicap hurdles last winter, doubling his tally at Plumpton in January. Fortunate to make a winning chase bow at Lingfield but not in same form when fourth last month. Can bounce back.
3 5th (3) (6.5/1 +19%) Sully D'oc Aa	6.5 6.5/1(+19%)	(3) Sully D'oc Aa 6.5/1, Bagged 2m Punchestown handicap in first-time cheekpieces in spring and all the better for return when third here last month. Mid-race blunder put paid to his chances last time so he's shortlisted.
9 6th (9) (3.5/1 +30%) Guy	3.5 3.5/1(+30%)	(9) Guy 3.5/1, Much improved sent chasing last season, landing 2½m handicap at Huntingdon on return. Has improved further still this year, second at this course (21f, good to soft) 29 days ago. Expected to go well.
4 7th (4) (14/1 -56%) Financier	14 14/1(-56%)	(4) Financier 14/1, Scored in a maiden at Ludlow in 2019/20 and back on the up after 8 weeks off when winning at Hereford when last seen in March. Up 8 lb and has 9-month absence to overcome.
1 8th (1) (33/1 -50%) Dolos	33 33/1(-50%)	(1) Dolos 33/1, Very smart chaser at his best but his form tailed off towards the end of last season and has offered little on both starts this term, folding tamley here 4 weeks ago. Others are preferred.
5 9th (5) (40/1 -60%) Ornua	40 40/1(-60%)	(5) Ornua 40/1, Useful chaser who regained winning thread in small field minor event at Tramore (21.5f) in July. Below that level over hurdles at Limerick later that month and little to shout about on yard debut.

6 1st (6) (2.5/1 +38%) Up For Parol	2.5 2.5/1(+38%)	(6) Up For Parol 2.5/1, Progressive, dual novice hurdle winner (at 2m) last term who ran creditably when third in Grade 2 on return. Not convincing with jumping over fences since and better showing likely back over timber.
3 2nd (3) (4.5/1 -50%) Stellar Magic	4.5 4.5/1(-50%)	(3) Stellar Magic 4.5/1, Point winner who impressed when landing pair of Taunton novice hurdles (19f) last winter. Ran too badly to be true at Warwick final start but certainly not one to write off on return/handicap bow.
9 3rd (9) (3/1 -9%) Mackelduff	3 3/1(-9%)	(9) Mackelduff 3/1, Progressive hurdler who readily defied a 7 lb lower mark on return/handicap debut at Aintree (20f) in October. Creditable third in stronger affair at Cheltenham (21f) since and likely player again.
2 4th (2) (50/1 -43%) N'golo	50 50/1(-43%)	(2) N'golo 50/1, Useful performer in his pomp for Willie Mullins (Grade 3 winner 13 months ago). Mixed bag followed in this sphere and out of sorts on Flat in recent months. Likely best watched for new stable.
8 5th (8) (7/1 +50%) Hart Of Steel	7 7/1(+50%)	(8) Hart Of Steel 7/1, Added to his tally in determined style at Carlisle (20f) in October and shaped as if still in good form when third at Hexham (16.2f) last month, an error 2 out not helping. This is tougher, however.
7 \|PU\| (7) (8.5/1 +23%) Little Awkward	8.5 8.5/1(+23%)	(7) Little Awkward 8.5/1, Bumper winner who landed a Plumpton maiden hurdle (20.5f) 12 months ago and kept on well for second at Fontwell (21.7f) in March. Had wind op since and should make his mark in handicaps.
5 \|PU\| (5) (16/1 +20%) Minella Charmer	16 16/1(+20%)	(5) Minella Charmer 16/1, Landed handicap hurdles 9 months apart in 2019. Missed 2020 and understandably shaped as if needing the run when distant third at Kelso (16.2f) in February. Operating from last winning mark on return.

4 2nd (4) (6.5/1 +0%) Off The Hook	6.5 6.5/1(+0%)	(4) Off The Hook 6.5/1, Losing run is mounting up but she arrives here having run well re-united with present stable when third at Ayr (20.5f) last month. May have tightened up a little for that
6 3rd (6) (3.5/1 +22%) Rubytwo	3.5 3.5/1(+22%)	(6) Rubytwo 3.5/1, Bounced back to best in first-time blinkers when beaten only by an improver at Sedgefield (19.8f) 3 weeks ago. 2-lb rise shouldn't prevent another good showing. Respected.
7 4th (7) (4.5/1 +44%) Sophie Olivia	4.5 4.5/1(+44%)	(7) Sophie Olivia 4.5/1, Winning hurdler/chaser, but very lightly-raced in recent years and she failed to live up to market expectations on return/debut for new yard at Hexham (16.2f) last month.
8 5th (8) (18/1 +10%) Lissen To The Lady	18 18/1(+10%)	(8) Lissen To The Lady 18/1, Kelso winner in May who ran better than on return when midfield in a 12-runner handicap here (23.7f) last month, running on. However, drop back in trip may not help on evidence of that run.
3 6th (3) (8/1 -23%) West End Lady	8 8/1(-23%)	(3) West End Lady 8/1, Off 5 months before opening account in 8-runner handicap hurdle at Hexham in October. Not disgraced either start in novice company since and no reason why she won't go well again.
2 7th (2) (9/1 -38%) Fiadh	9 9/1(-38%)	(2) Fiadh 9/1, Bumper winner who landed a weak C&D mares' maiden hurdle last month. Creditable third under a penalty at Kelso (20.8f) subsequently and switch to handicaps rates more suitable now.

6 6th (6) (28/1 -75%) Slige Dala	28 28/1(-75%)	(6) Slige Dala 28/1, Fairly useful hurdler. Similar form both starts over fences this autumn. More will be needed here.

2 1st (2) (4/1 +20%) Champ	4 4/1(+20%)	(2) Champ 4/1, Remarkable winner of the RSA Chase in 2020 but he jumped badly before being pulled up early in Gold Cup there when last seen out in March. Returns over hurdles but highly talented and no forlorn hope.
9 2nd (9) (2.5/1 -25%) Thyme Hill	2.5 2.5/1(-25%)	(9) Thyme Hill 2.5/1, Narrowly denied in this event 12 months ago before landing Aintree Stayers' Hurdle in April. Not at his best in Auteuil Grade 1 on his return but no surprise to see him take a big step forward here.
5 3rd (5) (5.5/1 +15%) Paisley Park	5.5 5.5/1(+15%)	(5) Paisley Park 5.5/1, Dual winner of this event, but he's yet to hit top form this term, cheekpieces on when only third to Thomas Darby in Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury last month. Tongue tied with a bit to prove now.
8 4th (8) (9/1 -29%) Thomas Darby	9 9/1(-29%)	(8) Thomas Darby 9/1, Has looked of suspect attitude, but back to his best in first-time tongue tie when winning Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury by 2¼l from On The Blind Side. This demands another step forward, though.

3 \|PU\| (3) (40/1 +0%) Lisnagar Oscar	40 40/1(+0%)	(3) Lisnagar Oscar 40/1, 2020 Stayers' winner at Cheltenham, but he's gone winless since and came in tailed off in Long Distance Hurdle at Newbury last month. Has it all to prove now.

3 3rd (3) (6/1 +0%) Pivoine	6 6/1(+0%)	(3) Pivoine 6/1, Latest win at Haydock in June. Also second at York in September but he needs to shrug off a poor run at Wolverhampton 14 days ago. Blinkers go back on.

Form	Odds	Runs
12 1st (12) (8/1 +27%) Enqarde	8 8/1(+27%)	(12) Enqarde 8/1, Opened his chase account at Ascot (soft) in January. Not seen to best effect when fifth of 13 on 3m Exeter reappearance and he's likely to come on for the run. Stable has won this before.
2 2nd (2) (2.25/1 +10%) Remastered	2.25 2.25/1(+10%)	(2) Remastered 2.25/1, Quickly made up into a smart novice chaser last term and he was going strongly in second when falling 4 out in Ladbrokes Trophy at Newbury 3 weeks ago. Big chance off same mark if none the worse.
9 3rd (9) (12/1 -50%) Calipso Collonges	12 12/1(-50%)	(9) Calipso Collonges 12/1, Snapped a losing run on first start back after wind surgery when seeing off 6 rivals at Kelso (21.5f) 6 weeks ago. 3 lb higher in a deeper race but still merits respect.
13 4th (13) (18/1 +0%) Just Your Type	18 18/1(+0%)	(13) Just Your Type 18/1, Winner at Uttoxeter last November and creditable second in that same contest this year. Third in Peter Marsh here last winter. Can throw in the odd bad mistake.
16 5th (16) (8/1 +43%) Fuji Flight	8 8/1(+43%)	(16) Fuji Flight 8/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2018 but he was having only his third start for this yard when third over 23.5f at Lingfield on his reappearance last month. Claims if he can build on that.
4 6th (4) (50/1 -25%) Notachance	50 50/1(-25%)	(4) Notachance 50/1, Looked a staying chaser on the up when landing a valuable prize at Warwick (29f, soft) in January but he all of a sudden has something to prove having pulled up on all 3 outings since.
6 7th (6) (25/1 -39%) Fado Des Brosses	25 25/1(-39%)	(6) Fado Des Brosses 25/1, Point winner who struck at the second time of asking over fences in 25f Hereford maiden in December. Absent since a below-form fifth at Ffos Las in February but returns as an unexposed sort.
8 8th (8) (16/1 +20%) Acey Milan	16 16/1(+20%)	(8) Acey Milan 16/1, Improved when landing a 25f Aintree novice handicap last October but has failed to reach the same heights since, albeit he may have needed run back hurdling on reappearance. Has cheekpieces refitted.
11 \|F\| (11) (6.5/1 +41%) Buzz De Turcoing	6.5 6.5/1(+41%)	(11) Buzz De Turcoing 6.5/1, Built on encouraging Wetherby chase debut second when going one better in 3m Ayr handicap 19 days ago. This big-field scenario asks a different question jumping wise but there's surely more to come.
10 \|PU\| (10) (12/1 +0%) Shanty Alley	12 12/1(+0%)	(10) Shanty Alley 12/1, Progressive over fences last season, winning twice around 3m in the mud. Well beaten when unseating 3 out on Uttoxeter return 5 weeks ago but he may come on for the run and his yard is in good form.
3 \|PU\| (3) (16/1 -14%) Vintage Clouds	16 16/1(-14%)	(3) Vintage Clouds 16/1, Cracking servant over the years and as good as ever when back to form in cheekpieces to win Ultima at Cheltenham Festival in March. His 2 efforts this season have been underwhelming, though.
5 \|PU\| (5) (18/1 -29%) Sam's Adventure	18 18/1(-29%)	(5) Sam's Adventure 18/1, Has failed to fire in his 2 starts this season but it was a simlar story before winning this race on heavy ground last sesaon so it'd be dangerous to rule out a revival.
15 \|PU\| (15) (22/1 +12%) Crixus's Escape	22 22/1(+12%)	(15) Crixus's Escape 22/1, Useful at his best but he fell in this race last year and he hasn't looked the same horse in his 3 runs since. 5 lb below last winning mark and Brian Hughes up but he has too much to prove.
14 \|PU\| (14) (25/1 -14%) Silva Eclipse	25 25/1(-14%)	(14) Silva Eclipse 25/1, Course hurdle winner who took well to fences last spring, winning Sedgefield handicap. Hasn't been able to reproduce that in 2 runs this term but his mark has edged down. Good claimer takes 5 lb off.
7 \|PU\| (7) (25/1 +0%) Potters Legend	25 25/1(+0%)	(7) Potters Legend 25/1, Useful chaser who enjoyed a good 2020/21, enhancing record in veterans' events at Fakenham in March. Not disgraced at Warwick on return and he's a C&D winner.
1 \|PU\| (1) (80/1 -60%) Mr Hendricks	80 80/1(-60%)	(1) Mr Hendricks 80/1, Ended time with Jessica Harrington with two disappointing runs but he did show useful form when winning a 3m Navan maiden chase on heavy in January. Joined respected yard but smart effort needed.

1 3rd (1) (1.88/1 -36%) Trooper Turnbull	1.88 1.88/1(-36%)	(1) Trooper Turnbull 1.88/1, Hurdle winner who struck at the second time of asking over fences in 2m Wetherby handicap last month. Did that cosily and should have more to come so fancied to defy 5 lb rise.

3 9th (3) (7/1 +50%) Sizing Malbay	7 7/1(+50%)	(3) Sizing Malbay 7/1, Latest win in chase at Punchestown in May. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap chase at Fairyhouse (24f, good to soft, 12/1) 39 days ago.
14 \|F\| (14) (18/1 +10%) Go All The Way	18 18/1(+10%)	(14) Go All The Way 18/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, below form ninth of 16 in handicap chase (40/1) at Punchestown 25 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Worth a market check.

11 1st (11) (7/1 +7%) Annsam	7 7/1(+7%)	(11) Annsam 7/1, Progressive over hurdles during 2019/20 and improved further over fences last term. Has returned in form over the smaller obstacles and could make an impact if his jumping holds up.
5 2nd (5) (8/1 +43%) Phoenix Way	8 8/1(+43%)	(5) Phoenix Way 8/1, Fragile but talented sort who returned with a display of tentative jumping at Newbury on reappearance. Given a chance by the handicapper since, but hard to know if he'll show up on his game.
7 3rd (7) (11/1 -10%) Jerrysback	11 11/1(-10%)	(7) Jerrysback 11/1, Has enjoyed success at this track in the past but it's drawn out flaws in his jumping on his last couple of visits, including over C&D 49 days ago. Not without a chance if he avoids errors.
8 4th (8) (40/1 -60%) Valtor	40 40/1(-60%)	(8) Valtor 40/1, Useful hurdler/chaser who ended his time for Nicky Henderson in good order, third at Perth 6 months ago. This is a tough assignment starting out for a new stable in a competitive event, though.
12 5th (12) (8/1 +6%) Checkitout	8 8/1(+6%)	(12) Checkitout 8/1, Improved with back-to-back 3m wins at Southwell and Ludlow in the spring. Placed both start this term but this looks a bit more competitive.
2 8th (2) (18/1 -50%) Regal Encore	18 18/1(-50%)	(2) Regal Encore 18/1, Not the easiest to catch right but has become well handicapped and he has won this race twice in the past. Long in the tooth now, but can't be completely dismissed.
3 \|F\| (3) (6.5/1 +7%) Caribean Boy	6.5 6.5/1(+7%)	(3) Caribean Boy 6.5/1, Smart chaser who ran respectably in form terms when mid-field in a Cheltenham handicap on reappearance. Good enough to compete off this mark and cheekpieces might add some more zip.
1 \|R\| (1) (7.5/1 +6%) Cloth Cap	7.5 7.5/1(+6%)	(1) Cloth Cap 7.5/1, Big improver last term and has shaped quite well on both outings this term, going off too hard in his bid to defend his Ladbrokes Trophy crown at Newbury last time. Definite player down in grade
6 \|PU\| (6) (8/1 -7%) Grand Sancy	8 8/1(-7%)	(6) Grand Sancy 8/1, Smart hurdler who has proved useful over fences and looked right back on his game when fourth in a Newbury handicap last time. Bold show likely if the race is run to suit.
9 \|PU\| (9) (12/1 +0%) Storm Control	12 12/1(+0%)	(9) Storm Control 12/1, Bold-jumping front-runner who scored twice at Cheltenham last season but needs to put a tame reappearance at that track behind him. Return to usual tactics should see him in a better light.

9 1st (9) (7/1 +72%) Northern	7 7/1(+72%)	(9) Northern 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 8 in minor event at Chelmsford City (7f, 150/1) 37 days ago. Significantly back up in trip. Makes handicap debut. Needs to up his game.
4 2nd (4) (5.5/1 -38%) Largo Bay	5.5 5.5/1(-38%)	(4) Largo Bay 5.5/1, Course winner. Pulled up in juvenile hurdle at Fontwell (17.7f, good, 66/1) on NH debut 34 days ago. Had been running creditably on the Flat prior to that, so warrants consideration.
3 4th (3) (3/1 +40%) Devizes	3 3/1(+40%)	(3) Devizes 3/1, 3-time C&D winner. 25/1, fifth of 7 in handicap at Kempton (16f) 19 days ago, left poorly placed. Back down in trip. Merits consideration from a handy mark.
1 5th (1) (11/1 -69%) Pledge Of Peace	11 11/1(-69%)	(1) Pledge Of Peace 11/1, Sixth of 9 in handicap (12/1) at Chelmsford City (14f) 56 days ago. Drops in grade, but hard to back with any conviction based on latest efforts.
6 6th (6) (6.5/1 -8%) Brass Clankers	6.5 6.5/1(-8%)	(6) Brass Clankers 6.5/1, Creditable third of 14 in handicap (16/1) at this course (10f, AW) 18 days ago. Claims in a weak race if he turns up in the same form.
5 7th (5) (9/1 +25%) Mustang Kodi	9 9/1(+25%)	(5) Mustang Kodi 9/1, Winner at Wolverhampton in October. Eighth of 12 in handicap at this course (15.8f, AW, 9/1) 35 days ago. Drop in trip should suit, so not a forlorn hope.
8 8th (8) (66/1 +18%) Tilsworth Sammy	66 66/1(+18%)	(8) Tilsworth Sammy 66/1, Remains a maiden after 17 Flat runs. Last of 12 in handicap at this course (15.8f, AW, 125/1) 18 days ago. Back down in trip. Up against it again from out of the weights.

7 2nd (7) (16/1 +20%) Tokyo Getaway	16 16/1(+20%)	(7) Tokyo Getaway 16/1, Mark looks fair based on Irish form, but chances are that she'll need this stable bow/first outing for 9 months, so others are more persuasive.
2 3rd (2) (40/1 -300%) Padleyourowncanoe	40 40/1(-300%)	(2) Padleyourowncanoe 40/1, Useful chaser for Colin Tizzard and, while he has a lengthy absence to overcome, the handicapper has given him a chance, so he's worth considering back over hurdles on debut for Dan Skelton.
3 4th (3) (33/1 -175%) Ratfacemcdougall	33 33/1(-175%)	(3) Ratfacemcdougall 33/1, Progressive five-time winner for Graeme McPherson last term but arrives with a bit to prove having been pulled up at Lingfield on reappearance. Others are more persuasive.
12 5th (12) (4.5/1 +25%) Mr Harp	4.5 4.5/1(+25%)	(12) Mr Harp 4.5/1, Fairly useful hurdler who was back to form when staying-on fifth at Sandown last time and should benefit from a good test at trip. Not discounted.
1 6th (1) (66/1 -164%) Hear No Evil	66 66/1(-164%)	(1) Hear No Evil 66/1, 50/1, fifteenth of 20 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (23.9f, good to soft) 34 days ago. Was in good form over fences towards the end of last season but he's not as appealing in this sphere.
5 7th (5) (20/1 +0%) Mulcahys Hill	20 20/1(+0%)	(5) Mulcahys Hill 20/1, Winning hurdler/chaser who showed some ability remains when down the field at Sandown 15 days ago. Should strip fitter for that and cheekpieces might sharpen him up, so respected.
6 8th (6) (6/1 -20%) Welsh Saint	6 6/1(-20%)	(6) Welsh Saint 6/1, One-time useful hurdler for Nicky Henderson and, while he was only fifth at Lingfield on seasonal/stable debut, he left the impression he should strip fitter for the run.
9 9th (9) (14/1 -17%) Poker Play	14 14/1(-17%)	(9) Poker Play 14/1, Winless last term but returned with an encouraging second at Ffos Las in October. On a fair mark if he's able to back that up.
4 10th (4) (2.75/1 +58%) Ballymillsy	2.75 2.75/1(+58%)	(4) Ballymillsy 2.75/1, Fairly useful hurdler who scored at Warwick in February and improved again when landing 26.5f handicap at Newton Abbot in October. Disappointing at Cheltenham last time, but too soon to write off.
8 \|PU\| (8) (14/1 -155%) Sultans Pride	14 14/1(-155%)	(8) Sultans Pride 14/1, Enjoyed a productive 2020/21 season and, with cheekpieces on, returned to winning ways with another career-best effort at Kelso in November. Warrants plenty of respect.
10 \|PU\| (10) (40/1 +20%) Fabulous Saga	40 40/1(+20%)	(10) Fabulous Saga 40/1, Multiple hurdles winner for Willie Mullins in 2017. However, poor in 3 runs for Paul Nicholls last season and no promise on debut for current connections in handicap at Ffos Las 51 days ago.

3 2nd (3) (5/1 +23%) Iceman Dennis	5 5/1(+23%)	(3) Iceman Dennis 5/1, £24,000 3-y-o, Spanish Moon gelding. Half-brother to 3 winners, including very smart hurdler/top-class chaser Cilaos Emery and fairly useful hurdler/chaser Amalfi Doug, stays 3¼m. Obvious player.
2 3rd (2) (22/1 -120%) Bolton	22 22/1(-120%)	(2) Bolton 22/1, Eagle Top gelding. Half-brother to 11f-17f winner Another Lincolnday (by Desideratum): dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/winner sole start over fences (stayed 25f) My Arch. Considered.
1 4th (1) (3/1 +0%) Le Fils De Force	3 3/1(+0%)	(1) Le Fils De Force 3/1, Flat-bred gelding who confirmed debut promise when opening his account at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, going away at the finish. Promising conditional negates the penalty, so he makes plenty of appeal.
9 5th (9) (9/1 +50%) Belleloise	9 9/1(+50%)	(9) Belleloise 9/1, Blue Bresil filly. Dam (c89/h103) 2m-3¼m hurdle/chase winner. Pedigree suggests he will need more time and distance.
5 6th (5) (22/1 -83%) Nortonthorpebanker	22 22/1(-83%)	(5) Nortonthorpebanker 22/1, Charming Thought gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners on Flat, including 5f/6f winner Waking Warrior. Dam unraced half-sister to useful hurdler (stayed 3m) April Allegro. Worth a market check.
4 7th (4) (16/1 +0%) Mr Mccall	16 16/1(+0%)	(4) Mr Mccall 16/1, Has a speedy Flat pedigree and, while he appeared to see out 13f when fourth to Le Fils de Force at Doncaster first time out, it's hard to envisage him reversing form with that rival.
11 8th (11) (150/1 -355%) Redesdale Angel	150 150/1(-355%)	(11) Redesdale Angel 150/1, Half-sister to 4 winners on the Flat but her debut at Wetherby lacked promise, so hard to imagine she'll make any sort of impact.
7 9th (7) (18/1 -50%) Snow Joeking	18 18/1(-50%)	(7) Snow Joeking 18/1, Snow Sky gelding. Dam, little impact in points, half-sister to fairly useful hurdler/useful chaser (stayed 2½m) Imjoeking and fairly useful hurdler (stayed 2½m) Go Odee Go.
6 10th (6) (50/1 -100%) Profiles Mix	50 50/1(-100%)	(6) Profiles Mix 50/1, Has a moderate pedigree and finished down the field having pulled hard at Aintree first time out. Others make more appeal.
10 11th (10) (100/1 -355%) Mayway	100 100/1(-355%)	(10) Mayway 100/1, Didn't offer much on debut at Market Rasen and, while there was a bit more encouragement in her Wetherby forth a couple of weeks ago, there's still a chunk of improvement to find if he's to feature.

5 2nd (5) (6/1 +45%) Battling Bessie	6 6/1(+45%)	(5) Battling Bessie 6/1, Twice-raced winner in bumpers. First run since leaving Jarlath P. Fahey when 3¼ lengths third of 12 to The Model Kingdom in listed bumper (14/1) at this C&D (good) 27 days ago. Not discounted.
2 3rd (2) (33/1 -136%) Gaelic Arc	33 33/1(-136%)	(2) Gaelic Arc 33/1, Thrice-raced winner under NH rules. 3/1, won 7-runner bumper at Thurles (16.2f, good) 30 days ago, going with enthusiasm. A lot more required in this company.
7 4th (7) (80/1 -60%) Hazelhatch Lady	80 80/1(-60%)	(7) Hazelhatch Lady 80/1, Doyen filly. Closely related to bumper winner/fairly useful 2m hurdle winner Cavalry Master. Dam winning hurdler/chaser up to 21f in France. Runner-up sole start in points (Apr 11).

Form	Odds	Runs
12 (12) (9/1 +0%) Luttrell Lad	9 9/1(+0%)	(12) Luttrell Lad 9/1, Useful in bumpers last term, winning twice and fourth in Grade 2 at Aintree. Good start over hurdles, despite being beaten as favourite last time, and he appeals as one who could do well in handicaps.
14 (14) (33/1 +0%) Mack The Man	33 33/1(+0%)	(14) Mack The Man 33/1, Added to his decent record when fresh when winning 2m Exeter handicap last month. Only raised 3 lb but this is a good deal more competitive.
7 1st (7) (8/1 +27%) Tritonic	8 8/1(+27%)	(7) Tritonic 8/1, Smart on Flat and has quickly reached similar level over hurdles. Creditable fifth of 19 in Greatwood at Cheltenham last month but West Cork and No Ordinary Joe were ahead of him.
11 2nd (11) (14/1 -17%) Onemorefortheroad	14 14/1(-17%)	(11) Onemorefortheroad 14/1, Made it 5 wins in his last 6 starts when making all over 2m at Newbury 21 days ago. Very likeable type but he'll find it a lot tougher to dominate this field.
3 3rd (3) (9/1 +36%) Garry Clermont	9 9/1(+36%)	(3) Garry Clermont 9/1, Showed improved form to readily land a 19f Warwick handicap in May and stepped up again when runner-up over C&D 4 weeks ago, a late error probably costing him victory. Should go well again.
4 4th (4) (33/1 -32%) Metier	33 33/1(-32%)	(4) Metier 33/1, Looked good when winning first 3 starts over timber, including Grade 1 Tolworth. However, he flopped in Supreme at Festival in March and dropped out tamely in Sandown race won by Samarrive on return.
6 5th (6) (3.5/1 +56%) West Cork	3.5 3.5/1(+56%)	(6) West Cork 3.5/1, Made light of a 631-day absence to win Greatwood at Cheltenham on reappearance, finsding extra despite his jockey dropping his whip on the run-in. 7 lb rise won't prevent a bold bid if in same form.
8 6th (8) (18/1 -13%) Llandinabo Lad	18 18/1(-13%)	(8) Llandinabo Lad 18/1, Quickly reached useful level over hurdles last term, winning twice at 2m. Solid reappearance second to Hunters Call over 19.5f at Bangor last month. Fine back at shorter. Another who could go well.
1 7th (1) (6/1 +20%) Goshen	6 6/1(+20%)	(1) Goshen 6/1, Easy win in Kingwell at Wincanton in February shows he is high-class on his day and he likely needed run back from 7 months off when fourth in 19f course Grade 2 4 weeks ago. Handicap debut.
13 8th (13) (12/1 +14%) Benson	12 12/1(+14%)	(13) Benson 12/1, Winner of first 3 starts last term and fourth in this race. Raced lazily when 13½ lengths fourth of 11 to Samarrive at Sandown 2 weeks ago and the visor which is added now may help.
2 9th (2) (25/1 -39%) Drop The Anchor	25 25/1(-39%)	(2) Drop The Anchor 25/1, Developed into a smart handicap hurdler last year, finishing well for 3 lengths seventh of 25 in County at Cheltenham in March. Warmed up for this with a placed effort on the Flat in October.
10 10th (10) (50/1 +0%) Global Citizen	50 50/1(+0%)	(10) Global Citizen 50/1, Smart front-running hurdle/chaser at best. Finally showed he retains some ability when second over 19.5f at Doncaster 3 weeks ago, going off too hard in first-time headgear. Drop to 2m may help.
9 \|PU\| (9) (2.75/1 +31%) No Ordinary Joe	2.75 2.75/1(+31%)	(9) No Ordinary Joe 2.75/1, Promising type who readily landed odds in 2 novice hurdles in May. Saw race out very well considering he raced freely in front when third of 19 to West Cork in Greatwood at Cheltenham. More to come.
5 \|PU\| (5) (12/1 -60%) Samarrive	12 12/1(-60%)	(5) Samarrive 12/1, Made it 3 wins from just 4 career starts when readily landing 2m Sandown listed handicap a fortnight ago. Up 11 lb in an even deeper race now but major surprise if there isn't more to come.

5 3rd (5) (12/1 +25%) Turn Of Phrase	12 12/1(+25%)	(5) Turn Of Phrase 12/1, 14/1, not disgraced when eighth of 13 in handicap at Chelmsford (10f) 9 days ago. However, not the easiest to to predict.
7 4th (7) (10/1 -82%) Supersonique	10 10/1(-82%)	(7) Supersonique 10/1, Lightly-raced maiden who stepped up on exploits as a 2-y-o when third on return/handicap debut at Salisbury (9.9f) in July, keeping on without being unduly punished. Likely capable of better still.
6 5th (6) (14/1 +0%) Cafe Milano	14 14/1(+0%)	(6) Cafe Milano 14/1, Remains a maiden after 26 Flat runs. 20/1, bit below form eighth of 14 in handicap at this course (10f, AW) 18 days ago, having hopeless task from position. This should reveal more.
9 6th (9) (80/1 -21%) Doyouknowmyuncles	80 80/1(-21%)	(9) Doyouknowmyuncles 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, twelfth of 13 in handicap at Kempton (8f) 17 days ago, very slowly away. Significantly up in trip.

3 8th (3) (16/1 +36%) Army Of One	16 16/1(+36%)	(3) Army Of One 16/1, Eleventh of 13 in handicap (18/1) at Wolverhampton (14f) 19 days ago, fading under 3f out. Return to 12f may help now but fact he remains a maiden is off-putting.

18:30 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 5f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
1 1st (1) (1.5/1 +8%) Blazing Hot	1.5 1.5/1(+8%)	(1) Blazing Hot 1.5/1, Failed to justify solid market support when fifth of 14 on yard debut at Newcastle (6f) last month, albeit not well drawn. However, well handicapped on old form and certainly one to bear in mind.
5 2nd (5) (2.75/1 +21%) First Verse	2.75 2.75/1(+21%)	(5) First Verse 2.75/1, 8/1, creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago, ridden over 1f out and making late headway. Remains a maiden but caught the eye latest and good showing anticipated.
9 3rd (9) (22/1 -159%) Bluella	22 22/1(-159%)	(9) Bluella 22/1, Respectable fourth of 9 in handicap (10/1) at this C&D 25 days ago, one paced in finish having had benefit of a good drw/position. Now operating back on last winning mark at least.
4 4th (4) (6.5/1 +54%) Thegreyvtrain	6.5 6.5/1(+54%)	(4) Thegreyvtrain 6.5/1, Temperamental sort. Last of 11 in handicap at this C&D (12/1) 10 days ago, losing place over 2f out. Booking of Probert catches the eye but she's not the easiest to weigh up.
6 5th (6) (12/1 -60%) Surewecan	12 12/1(-60%)	(6) Surewecan 12/1, Turned in best effort of the year when second of 9 in a C&D handicap 25 days ago, running on to be nearest at the finish. Can get involved again with a repeat.
2 6th (2) (33/1 -83%) Ascot Jungle	33 33/1(-83%)	(2) Ascot Jungle 33/1, 20/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at Chelmsford (5f) 16 days ago, doing too much too soon. Makes tapeta debut. Hood back on.
10 7th (10) (40/1 -43%) Sennen	40 40/1(-43%)	(10) Sennen 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 150/1, fourth of 6 in minor event at Lingfield (5f, AW) 22 days ago. Visor needs to have positive effect now tackling handicaps.
7 8th (7) (14/1 -40%) Mansfield	14 14/1(-40%)	(7) Mansfield 14/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Musselburgh in October. 12/1, seventh of 11 in handicap at this C&D 10 days ago, doing too much too soon. Bounce back not ruled out.
3 9th (3) (10/1 -43%) Billy Dylan	10 10/1(-43%)	(3) Billy Dylan 10/1, Thirty runs since last win in 2018. 9/2, last of 9 in handicap at this C&D 25 days ago. Had previously shaped well when runner-up here in October but losing run is an obvious concern.
11 10th (11) (80/1 -21%) Tilsworth Valerie	80 80/1(-21%)	(11) Tilsworth Valerie 80/1, Sixth of 11 in handicap (125/1) at Chelmsford City (5f) 16 days ago. Makes tapeta debut. Easy to look elsewhere.
8 11th (8) (80/1 -60%) La Chica Lobo	80 80/1(-60%)	(8) La Chica Lobo 80/1, Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. Eighth of 9 in handicap (50/1) at this C&D 25 days ago. Others make much more appeal.

19:00 Wolverhampton Handicap (Class 6) 12f - 11 Run Class & Speed Card

Form	Odds	Runs
7 1st (7) (28/1 -180%) Cherokee Dance	28 28/1(-180%)	(7) Cherokee Dance 28/1, Still a maiden, but she posted creditable fourth of 8 in handicap at Kempton (12f, 33/1) 24 days ago. Shortlist material eased 1 lb.
3 2nd (3) (10/1 -25%) Percy Willis	10 10/1(-25%)	(3) Percy Willis 10/1, Below form third of 10 in maiden at Southwell (11.1f, 10/3) 8 days ago, despite having run of race. Needs a couple of these to falter.
2 3rd (2) (4/1 +47%) Can Can Girl	4 4/1(+47%)	(2) Can Can Girl 4/1, Visored for 1st time, good second of 12 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f, 11/2) 11 days ago, making effort earlier than ideal. Temperamental sort, though, so others remain more persuasive.
10 4th (10) (40/1 -122%) Ghostly	40 40/1(-122%)	(10) Ghostly 40/1, Course winner who arrives on back of good fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 12 days ago when not ideally placed. Back up in trip and not ruled out.
8 5th (8) (12/1 -100%) Eagle's Realm	12 12/1(-100%)	(8) Eagle's Realm 12/1, 11/4, good third of 9 in handicap at Southwell (14.1f) 11 days ago. Cheekpieces back on, and in the mix off an unchamged mark.
1 6th (1) (1.5/1 +0%) Eagle One	1.5 1.5/1(+0%)	(1) Eagle One 1.5/1, On the up for current yard, and he bagged 6-runner handicap (2/1) over C&D 5 days ago. Carries 6 lb penalty but he's still quite unexposed at this trip and holds good claims.
4 7th (4) (50/1 -100%) Tommy R	50 50/1(-100%)	(4) Tommy R 50/1, Latest win at Hamilton in July. 14/1, last of 12 in handicap at Southwell (12.1f) 11 days ago. Cheekpieces back on with serious questions to answer at present.
11 8th (11) (28/1 +15%) Johnny Estella	28 28/1(+15%)	(11) Johnny Estella 28/1, 22/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Charlie Fellowes when creditable fifth of 10 in handicap at this course (9.5f) 7 days ago. Possibilities.
9 9th (9) (9/1 -13%) She's No Angel	9 9/1(-13%)	(9) She's No Angel 9/1, Latest win at Newcastle in September. Good third of 14 in handicap (12/1) at Lingfield (12f, AW) 17 days ago, so she needs considering again.
5 10th (5) (22/1 -57%) Meisterzinger	22 22/1(-57%)	(5) Meisterzinger 22/1, Winner at Chelmsford City in September. Only tenth of 13 in handicap (9/2) at Chelmsford City (10f) 22 days ago. Up in trip and needs to get back on track.
6 11th (6) (5.5/1 +45%) The Bay Warrior	5.5 5.5/1(+45%)	(6) The Bay Warrior 5.5/1, Off 7 months before fading seventh of 11 in handicap (10/1) at Kempton (12f) 17 days ago. Not taken lightly if building on that effort now.

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.
