Race 1 Fontwell 13:20 Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
8	8 My Ticketyboo Fitted with cheekpieces and much improved when springing a surprise over C&D last week, responding well. Jumped right on that occasion but it didn't stop him and he's now of interest under a penalty. 439-881	10-127ex	Mr Freddie Gordon	Chris Gordon	4/1	3/1		25
24	4 Gavroche D'allier Well held on his sole outing in bumpers but better signs over hurdles, suited by return to 19.6f when third fitted with cheekpieces for handicap debut 3 weeks ago. Big player upped further in distance. 27-0353	11-6	Jamie Brace	Milton Harris	4.5/1	3/1		33
69	9 Balinesker Beach Made a low-key start under Rules in early-2021 for Jack Barber and, having won in points since, fared little better on yard/seasonal debut at Chepstow. Upped to 20.4f and much more like it when third on handicap debut at Southwell in November. More to come. 41-P703	10-11	Thomasina Eyston	Neil Mulholland	4.5/1	7/1	56
48	3 Abingworth Promise when second on first of 3 starts in bumpers last winter and similarly offered a bit first 2 outings over hurdles this winter. Under pressure when falling at Plumpton latest but remains low mileage and one to consider on handicap bow for in-form yard. 207-54F	11-11	Rob Hargreaves	Gary Moore	6/1	14/1	133
42	12 West Orchard Yet to get seriously competitive but his fourth-placed finishes at Wincanton on his last 2 starts show he's no lost cause and he'll be suited by the return to further after finding 2m too sharp last time. 8PP-444	10-10	Freddie Gingell	Joe Tizzard	7/1	4/1		43
62	6 Annie Day Gambled-on and left previous efforts behind to get off the mark for her new yard returning from 20 months off at Fontwell (19f, good) in November. Possibly found the race coming too soon 3 weeks later at Uttoxeter so may well get back on track here. 25U5/15	11-1	Mr Charlie Case	Ben Case	7/1	6.5/1		7
46	11 Follow That Runner-up in handicaps final 2 starts of 2020/21 campaign. Has showed enough to suggest she retains plenty of ability in 2 comeback outings this term and claims if pulling out any more for first-time cheekpieces. 5822/45	10-10	Mr Oliver Boyden	Olly Murphy	10/1	20/1	100
40	5 Gaia Vallis Scored a couple of times last season but was some way short of her best when a remote third of 16 on reappearance just after Christmas. Needs to come on for that outing. 21145-3	11-2	Mr James Turner	David Bridgwater	16/1	18/1	13
73	2 Newtonian Fair form when placed in a brace of bumpers. In need of the experience on hurdles debut a year ago but well held completed start since (fell twice in that time). 235F-F5	12-0	Mr Lewis Saunders	Oliver Sherwood	20/1	80/1	300
9	10 Hard Frost Showed fair from on the first of 2 starts in bumpers but never dangerous in 2 novice hurdles for Paul Nicholls and was similar story for new yard. 3/848-90	10-10	Mr Rupert Wilks	Harry Derham	25/1	40/1	60
42	1 Oscarsman Won Plumpton maiden hurdle in December 2019 and stepped up on reappearance when third there (20.5f, good to soft) in November. Needs to cast aside a heavy defeat at Huntingdon. PP6/53P	12-1	Dylan Kitts	Suzy Smith	28/1	33/1	18
62	13 Hier Encore On a lengthy losing run and looks on the decline. 4 lb out of the weights. 6/098-59	10-2	Beau Morgan	Nigel Dunger	80/1	33/1		59
78	7 Robins Field Showed some promise sent chasing before taking a nasty spill at Lingfield a year ago on sole outing for Dan Skelton. Unseated in a point after and no promise back hurdling at Exeter in November. Has had a breathing op. 9P/PFU-P	10-13	Miss Imogen	Harriet Dickin	100/1	200/1	100

There are 13 runners in this race.

Race 2 Fontwell 13:55 Handicap Chase (Class 5) 20f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
8	1 Unit Sixtyfour Improved since tongue tied, winning handicap chases at Warwick on New Year's Eve and here (2¼m) 8 days ago. A 7 lb penalty doesn't look enough to prevent him completing a hat-trick. 82-2211	12-97ex	Beau Morgan	Ben Pauling	0.8/1	0.91/1	14
32	3 Haldon Hill Down in the weights and finally opened his account over fences at Ffos Las (21f) in November. Not in the same form when only sixth there since but capable of bouncing back. 3UP-516	11-10	Jonjo O'Neill Jr	Victor Dartnall	4.5/1	3.5/1		22
8	4 Dindin Kept busy and scored by a wide margin at Warwick in September. Rather hit-and-miss since, but his latest 5 lengths third to the reopposing Unit Sixtyfour over 2¼m here was creditable. Thereabouts if in the same form. 732563	11-6	Philip Armson	David Pipe	8/1	10/1	25
35	2 Pawpaw Ran creditably for his new yard when when second in a 20.5f Plumpton handicap hurdle last month. Didn't show much in 2 chase starts at the start of the season, though. Has cheekpieces refitted. P08932	11-11	Brendan Powell	David Bridgwater	8/1	5/1		38
21	5 Arcade Attraction Fair chaser/hurdler when on-song but he's shown precious little in 4 starts this season. First-time cheekpieces need to have a positive effect. 25-606P	10-13	Adam Wedge	Evan Williams	14/1	14/1		0
30	6 Call Me Freddie Hurdles winner over 3m in Ireland but hasn't shown much in 6 starts in this sphere to date, finishing a distant fifth at Wincanton last month. 69-37P5	10-7	Harry Reed	Richenda Ford	18/1	33/1	83
7	8 Clondaw Robin Yet to score over fences and last of 8 at Plumpton a week ago. Hard to fancy. 3F/0438	10-2	Caoilin Quinn	Andy Irvine	33/1	20/1		39
42	7 Uncertain Times Successful between the flags in February but overall record in that sphere is hardly compelling, and little show in maiden/novice hurdles. Makes chase/handicap debut. 1PP-680	10-2	James Best	Anna Newton-Smith	66/1	66/1		0

There are 8 runners in this race.

Race 3 Fontwell 14:30 Novices/Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 22f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
37	1 Kilbeg King Irish point winner looked good prospect when making winning start under Rules in a Uttoxeter bumper in March 2021. After a 20-month absence he made a successful hurdle debut at Ffos Las in November. Well beaten pitched into Grade 1 company at Newbury since but leading claims with sights lowered. 211/16	11-12	Aidan Coleman	Anthony Honeyball	1.38/1	1/1		28
128	3 Red Windsor Fair form when placed on all 4 bumper starts and made a winning start to his hurdle career in a 19f course novice in October. Capable of better and another bold show looks assured. 223-31	11-12	Tom Cannon	Chris Gordon	2/1	2.75/1	38
30	9 Star Flyer Reached the frame in both bumpers and ran to a fair level when 9 lengths third in Newcastle novice hurdle a month ago. A repeat of that form should see him on the premises here. 3-483	11-5	James Bowen	Warren Greatrex	5/1	4.5/1		10
7	2 Red Happy Has enjoyed plenty of success for this yard but kept busy and has found life tough lately. R8PPPC	11-12	James Best	David Pipe	7/1	7.5/1	7
42	8 Scrum Diddly Placed on completed start in Irish points back in May but down the field in a bumper and novice hurdle under Rules. Clearly still early days but can only be watched for now. F-309	11-5	Jonathan Burke	Oliver Sherwood	25/1	18/1		28
35	5 Galway Mahler Maiden pointer who exceeded market expectations when fifth on Newbury hurdle debut last March but has pulled up on both outings since. 435P-P	11-5	Brendan Powell	John Best & Karen	25/1	40/1	60
29	4 Allanah's Boy Poor form in bumpers/novice hurdles. Star Flyer looks very much the yard first string. 8P-7PU0	11-5	Harry Bannister	Warren Greatrex	50/1	125/1	150
37	6 Lucky Mac Well held in 2 bumpers in December ahead of this switch to hurdles. 00	11-5	Ben Ffrench Davis	Andy Irvine	100/1	250/1	150
47	7 Privatearing Beaten a long way in a bumper and maiden hurdle before Christmas. Big outsider. 88	11-5	Caoilin Quinn	Andy Irvine	100/1	250/1	150
30	10 Kings Kuroshio Pulled up in novice hurdle at Wincanton (2m) on debut 30 days ago, labouring from circuit out. Significantly up in trip. P	10-12	James Davies	Nick Gifford	100/1	250/1	150

There are 10 runners in this race.

Race 4 Fontwell 15:00 Handicap Chase (Class 4) 26f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
7	5 Ozzie Man Winner of sole start between the flags and winner of first 2 starts in this sphere. Creditable efforts in defeat the last twice, latterly going down narrowly at Huntingdon (2½m, good to soft), and open to improvement back up in trip here in a first-time visor. 3/2-1132	11-2	Caoilin Quinn	Gary Moore	1.38/1	1.1/1		20
36	2 A Time To Shine Runner-up on chase debut at Hereford in February 2021 and performed with credit when fourth of 10 back from a lengthy absence at Exeter (24.2f, heavy) on New Year's Day. Potentially well-handicapped if able to build on that. 3332P/4	11-4	Jonathan Burke	Oliver Sherwood	3/1	2.25/1		25
5	3 Windance Big improver in handicap hurdles in 2021, winning at Taunton and this course in the space of a week. Shaped as though ability remains intact back from 19 months off on chase debut at Uttoxeter but recently failed to complete at Exeter. 011/3-5P	11-3	Aidan Coleman	Anthony Honeyball	5.5/1	5.5/1		0
42	1 Potters Venture Fairly useful hurdler for Philip Hobbs who scored over fences on his yard debut at Newton Abbot (25.8f, good to soft) in October. Well held both starts since, though, including back over hurdles last time, and tongue strap applied now returned to chasing. 53-P186	11-4	Harry Kimber	Keiran Burke	5.5/1	6.5/1	18

There are 4 runners in this race.

Race 5 Fontwell 15:30 Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 18f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
10	1 Auriferous Fairly useful on Flat (stays 16.5f) and successful at Southwell (12f) back in March. Plenty of creditable efforts in defeat thereafter, keeping on for third at Newbury (2m) in July. Acquired for 50,000 gns in August and shaped well under a kind ride on hurdles debut 10 days ago. More to come. 4	11-7	Jamie Moore	Gary Moore	1.88/1	2/1	6
7	7 Tapley Winning start under Rules in a Fontwell bumper in October and showed plenty to work on sent hurdling when fourth of 12 in a Newbury maiden (16.3f) in November. Similar efforts in defeat since and he should be on the premises again. 2-19452	11-7	Micheal Nolan	Suzy Smith	2.25/1	1/1		56
494	6 San Fermin Half-brother to useful chaser Billaway and, having won a bumper, made a pleasing start to his hurdling career when third in a novice at Stratford in June 2021. Off since the following September so well-being is taken on trust. 5U2/132-	11-7	Aidan Coleman	Olly Murphy	4/1	7.5/1	88
67	5 General Medrano Showed promise both starts in bumpers and did the same sent hurdling when eighth of 15 in 2m novice at Chepstow in November, unable to sustain effort after making headway 2 out. Also failed to see race out at Leicester but a subsequent wind op may well help his cause. 3/384	11-7	Tom Bellamy	Emma Lavelle	6/1	6/1		0
288	8 Shewearsthewellies Made frame both starts in Irish points, fourth last time (Apr 2022). Market may guide on Rules debut. 34-	11-0	David Bass	Lawney Hill	20/1	66/1	230
65	3 Bohemian Lad Mahler gelding. Half-brother to bumper winner/fairly useful hurdler Dollys Destination. Dam (h85) bumper winner. Tongue tied and just minor promise in a Chepstow bumper in December. 7	11-7	Ben Godfrey	Anthony Honeyball	25/1	25/1		0
29	4 Estacas Winner of a strong Ascot bumper for Andreas Wohler but was extremely easy to back when well held on hurdling/stable debut at Chepstow last month. Something to prove on the back of that. 13-0	11-7	Paul O'Brien	David Bridgwater	25/1	50/1	100
27	2 Belgarum Limited impact in a bumper/over hurdles. 6-79	11-7	Brendan Powell	Joe Tizzard	50/1	125/1	150

Race 6 Fontwell 16:00 Handicap Chase (Class 4) 22f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
59	1 Whatsdastory Well prepared following 6 months off to land 3-runner mares' handicap at Hereford in October. Promised more than what she ultimately delivered having travelled well for a long way at Cheltenham (20.6f, good) last time but leading claims here all the same. 454-1R6	12-1	Sam Twiston-Davies	Dr Richard Newland	2.75/1	6/1	118
32	3 Mad About Sally Benefited from a more patient ride when opening her account in 14-runner handicap hurdle at Hereford (21.7f, soft) in December. Probably best to overlook subsequent Ffos Las display and she could have a part to play if her jumping passes the test now switched to fences. 34-861P	10-12	Ben Jones	Oliver Signy	3/1	1.5/1		50
42	4 River Tyne Winless following half-a-dozen attempts over hurdles but twice ran well at this venue. Yet to match pick of her form in that sphere, in 2 starts over fences but her mark is easing all the time, so she's not one to be writing off. 2326-34	10-7	James Davies	Nick Gifford	4/1	3/1		25
59	2 Electric Annie Dual winner over hurdles (at up to 21.3f) last season and fair encouraging start over fences on return at Kempton in November. In trouble a long way out at Cheltenham next time, though, and she has bit to prove on the back of that. 2115-2P	11-4	Mr George Hiscock	Robert Walford	4/1	5/1	25
48	5 Tazka Sole win over fences was registered over C&D in September 2020. Hit the crossbar twice off higher marks than this last summer and while she has needs to bounce back following a couple of non-completions, she will be a threat if on-song. 7/722PP	10-6	Niall Houlihan	Gary Moore	5/1	7.5/1	50

There are 5 runners in this race.

Race 7 Fontwell 16:30 Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 18f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
30	4 Force De Frap Revitalised in recent months, winning 2m handicaps at Taunton and Wincanton. Another 12 lb higher now bidding for the hat-trick but can't rule out further progress in his current mood. P80-611	11-10	Harrison Beswick	Emma-Jane Bishop	3.33/1	6.5/1	95
28	8 Sawpit Sienna Successful at Fakenham (2½m) in October and Taunton (2m) in January. Ought to remain very competitive after a 6 lb rise. 83-7141	11-0	Robert Dunne	Samuel Drinkwater	5/1	9/1	80
30	10 Gorcombe Moonshine Found only one too good from out of the weights over C&D in December. Not in the same form at Wincanton since but he may fare better with the cheekpieces he wore here now back in place. 0P-6526	10-2	Harry Kimber	Robert Walford	6/1	6/1		0
24	2 Monjules Strong in betting and straight back on track for new yard when making light of a 10-month absence at Sedgefield (2m) in December. Disappointed in a 19.5f Huntingdon since but might be worth another chance. 168P-19	11-13	Lorcan Murtagh	Harry Fry	6.5/1	6/1		8
62	5 Tamaris Fair maiden over hurdles for Gary Moore. Sound return from an absence for his new stable when fourth of 13 over C&D in December and not disgraced on AW Flat at Lingfield recently. Likely to go well back hurdling. 335/2-4	11-5	Freddie Gingell	Joe Tizzard	7/1	3.5/1		50
42	3 Sambezi Placed twice over hurdles last spring and back to form when 6 lengths second at Sedgefield (17f) in December. Only a respectable third (beaten 13 lengths) at Wincanton on Boxing Day. 3-28523	11-13	Ben Jones	Oliver Signy	7.5/1	3.5/1		53
35	7 Begin The Luck Has drawn a blank since his 2 wins in spring 2021 but he knocked firmly on the door with 3 successive runner-up efforts in November/December. Shaped as if still in form when fifth at Plumpton latest. Considered. 962225	11-2	Ben Godfrey	Brian Barr	9/1	9/1		0
37	1 Petticoat Lucy Landed a mares' novice hurdle at Wincanton (2m) last winter. Creditable reappearance fourth at Exeter (18.5f) in November but merely added to her rather mixed record when pulled up at Newbury on New Year's Eve. 31P8-4P	12-2	Lorcan Williams	Jeremy Scott	11/1	14/1	27
75	12 Le Balcon Made frame twice from 4 outings in Irish points. No show as yet under Rules and out of the weights for handicap debut, but could do better and warrants a market check. 4/P55-37	10-2	Tom Bellamy	D J Jeffreys	16/1	28/1	75
9	11 Christopher Clive Little impact for Jeremy Scott last season. Offered a bit when sixth of 14 in Taunton handicap on return for a new yard. Unseated at the start at Uttoxeter since. 8 lb out of the handicap. 7789-6U	10-2	Philip Armson	Claire Harris	25/1	66/1	164
47	6 Kerrkenny Gold Runner-up twice in bumpers for Mags Mullins in 2018. Also second over hurdles for Olly Murphy in February 2020 but pulled up both starts since returning from a long absence for new stable. Lots to prove. 8042/PP	11-2	James Davies	Barry Brennan	100/1	125/1	25
35	9 Bolberry Down In frame first 2 starts but pulled up switched to handicap company at Lingfield and Plumpton since. Can only be watched. 43PP	10-9	Tom Cannon	John Best & Karen	100/1	40/1		60
