Race 1 Stratford 14:17 Novices/Maiden Hurdle (Class 4) 16f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
15	9 Jupiter Du Gite Caused a major upset when making all on British/hurdles debut at Newbury in December but proved far too free in a Triumph trial and the main rece itself at Cheltenham. Eases in class but backing him comes with clear risks attached. Hood off. 3-16P	10-13	Niall Houlihan	Gary Moore	2.25/1	2.75/1	22
44	2 Beau Balko Successful on his sole Flat start in France and got off the mark over hurdles at the second attempt when dictating at Hereford in November. Disappointing handicap debut but he cast that aside in no uncertain terms when adding to tally at Sandown in February. Likely has more to offer. 2151	11-7	Angus Cheleda	Paul Nicholls	2.5/1	1.1/1		56
95	1 Alien Storm Getaway gelding from good jumping family. Improved with each outing in bumpers and made a positive start over hurdles, successful at Plumpton in October and better form when second under a penalty at Kempton. Disappointing handicap debut needs shrugging off. 53-2129	11-7	Lilly Pinchin	Charlie Longsdon	6/1	8.5/1	42
18	4 Samuel Spade No more than a fair handicapper on the Flat but has quickly reached a higher level over hurdles, winning at Kempton and Huntingdon and a good second in a Class 2 event at Huntingdon in between. Jumping errors proved costly in a deeper environment at Cheltenham. 1210	11-4	Kielan Woods	Ben Pauling	6.5/1	6.5/1		0
96	6 Iberico Lord Won a French bumper in May. Faded to finish a well-held sixth of 8 on his Cheltenham hurdle debut in November and was held when falling at Kempton in December. Still early days and he's had a wind op. 16F	11-0	Aidan Coleman	Nicky Henderson	7.5/1	9/1	20
9	7 My Boy Grizzle Fame And Glory gelding. Dam unraced half-sister to fairly useful hurdler Supreme Huntress. Hooded and very strong in the betting in a Tipperary bumper in March 2021 but ultimately held back by inexperience. Left J. D. Motherway and almost certainly needed the run on last week's hurdles bow. 4/5	11-0	Ben Poste	Clare Ellam	150/1	250/1	67

There are 6 runners in this race.

Race 2 Stratford 14:52 Handicap Chase (Class 4) 19f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
12	3 The Grey Falco Won over hurdles at Haydock last winter. Largely struggled after but shaped better than being pulled up at Fontwell on second chase start/yard debut would imply and duly took a step back in the right direction when third at Southwell 12 days ago. Could be ready to strike now. 730-PP3	11-9	Luca Morgan	Ben Pauling	2.25/1	3.33/1	48
35	2 Chanceux Dual novice hurdle winner who improved at first attempt over fences when runner-up at Uttoxeter (20f, heavy) in December but hasn't kicked on both starts since, just respectable third of 4 in handicap chase at Newcastle (16.3f, good to soft, 7/2) 35 days ago. 3P-62F3	11-12	Jonathan Burke	Alastair Ralph	4/1	1.88/1		53
7	1 Feel The Pinch Fair hurdler who made a successful switch to chasing at Bangor in November. In good form back hurdling since, adding to his tally there in good style on debut for this yard last week. Obvious claims back over fences. 1-416F1	11-13	Mitchell Bastyan	Robbie Llewellyn	4/1	2.5/1		38
14	5 Fakir Back on track when landing a 3-runner handicap chase at Fontwell (21.5f) on debut for this yard in September. Has found life tougher since but dangerous to discount off tumbling mark/first-time headgear. 53P534	11-6	Tom Bellamy	Milton Harris	7/1	4.5/1		36
217	6 Joly Maker Reliable sort who returned from 3 months off when scoring over C&D last summer but others look better handicapped. Off 7 months. 3124-14	11-5	Max Kendrick	Jonjo O'Neill	12/1	25/1	108

There are 5 runners in this race.

Race 3 Stratford 15:27 Selling Hurdle (Class 5) 19f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
15	1 Weebill Good record at selling/claiming level in recent times, including winning a 2m Fakenham claimer last month. The one to beat. 123-131	12-0	Daire Davis	Olly Murphy	1.5/1	2.75/1	83
20	4 Forecast Three-time winner over hurdles in first spell for this yard and added to tally over fences for Dr Richard Newland during 2021. Yet to find his best form since rejoining this stable but this is a drop in grade. 293546	11-4	Harry Atkins	Martin Keighley	4/1	2.75/1		31
11	3 Captain Jack Turned in his best effort of the season when third of 9 in 2m Wetherby handicap 11 days ago. Place claims again if in similar form. 8B3273	11-4	Toby Wynne	Samuel Drinkwater	7/1	4/1		43
9	2 Ring The Moon Fifth career success when taking a Chepstow handicap hurdle 9 days ago but that form is only modest and he'll require more if he's to follow up in this non-handicap. 1-0P3P1	11-10	Adam Wedge	Evan Williams	8/1	7.5/1		6
20	5 Hokelami Has shown some promise, including when third of 7 in 19f Market Rasen handicap last time. Likely to be in the shake-up now dropping into a seller. 53003	11-4	William Kennedy	Olly Murphy	10/1	3.5/1		65
60	6 Kingston King Exposed as modest and easy to look elsewhere back hurdling after pulling up over fences last twice. 62-P2PP	11-4	Miss Roisin Leech	Jake Thomas	33/1	50/1	52

There are 6 runners in this race.

Race 4 Stratford 16:02 Handicap Hurdle (Class 5) 22f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
22	2 Dedanser Ended last term with success at Bangor. Low-key start in handicaps but down in the weights and fitted with blinkers, he's hit the frame on his last 2 starts. This isn't a strong race so he's of serious interest. 1-PP034	11-13	William Maggs	Donald McCain	4.5/1	3.2/1		29
9	8 Perfect Man Losing run stetches back to 2020 but he has a very lowly mark to exploit for new connections. Market may prove useful. 057654	10-13	Caoilin Quinn	Ryan Potter	6/1	2.75/1		54
30	1 Propelled Showed fair form on first of his 2 starts in bumpers and ran to a similar level when runner-up in a Huntingdon novice (20.7f) on hurdling debut. After 9 months off, hasn't progressed in 3 starts this season, brushed aside on handicap debut a month ago. 242-646	12-2	Ben Bromley	Nicky Henderson	6/1	11/1	83
27	10 Tiny Tantrum Fair maiden for Lucy Wadham last term but not at his best in 5 handicaps for new yard this winter. Mark is on the slide but still need to see more. 3-55456	10-8	Bryony Frost	Mike Murphy &	11/1	5.5/1		50
27	12 Richardson Poor handicap hurdler who didn't achieve a great deal despite finishing second in the mud at Leicester in December. Fair fifth at Huntingdon since but more needed. 0-65025	10-3	Lee Edwards	John Groucott	12/1	5.5/1		54
20	4 Getbazoutofhere Modest form over hurdles so far and not even at that level both starts back from an absence in 2023. 9326-74	11-8	Mitchell Bastyan	Tom Gretton	16/1	16/1		0
14	13 Amlovi Acquitted herself well back over hurdles last season, finishing a creditable third at Warwick on her final start of the campaign. Hasn't carried much of a threat both outings this term, though. 3 lb out of the weights. 4463-P6	10-2	Ben Poste	Adrian Wintle	18/1	50/1	178
39	9 Gaia Vallis Scored a couple of times last season but hasn't resumed in particularly good form this time round. Down in the weights but need to see more before considering her. 145-3P7	10-11	Lilly Pinchin	David Bridgwater	25/1	6.5/1		74
131	11 O'grady's Boy Modest maiden hurdler/chaser at best but has gone the wrong way this season, showing temperament over hurdles on his first 2 starts of the campaign and pulled up both outings over fences since. U4-7PPP	10-4	Tabitha Worsley	Gary Hanmer	50/1	66/1	32
19	14 Sans Of Gold Unplaced completed start in points and hasn't offered much over hurdles to date. 475P07	10-2	James Best	Jimmy Frost	50/1	18/1		64

There are 10 runners in this race.

Race 5 Stratford 16:37 Handicap Chase (Class 3) 23f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	%
27	6 Dom Of Mary Bumper/hurdles winner who produced his best effort yet over fences when failing by a whisker at Huntingdon (2½m) last month. Doesn't look entirely straightforward but stepping back up in trip here should be in his favour and he needs considering. 14-F532	10-8	Caoilin Quinn	David Bridgwater	2.75/1	1.2/1	56
35	2 Vision Des Flos Scored over fences at Warwick in September and has remained in good form since, coping well with the drop back to 2m when runner-up at Chepstow last time. Return to this trip no bad thing and he's a live contender. 212422	11-9	Brendan Powell	Joe Tizzard	4.5/1	3.33/1	26
19	5 Go Steady Looked as good as ever when landing a C&D contest recently, pulling clear of the rest with a subsequent winner. 4 lb rise fair enough and another bold show could be on the way. 413361	11-1	Tristan Durrell	Dan Skelton	5.5/1	3.5/1	36
85	7 Rakhine State Three-time winner over hurdles for Gordon Elliott and gained first success for current yard in handicap at Worcester in summer 2021. Placed both runs in this sphere since returning from a lengthy absence in November but needs to sharpen up his jumping. 30/61-33	10-6	Max Kendrick	D J Jeffreys	11/1	10/1	9
249	3 Fire Away Built up good strike rate over hurdles/fences for this yard, doing well under the circumstances to add to his tally at Cartmel last May. However, below par thereafter and entitled to need this run following 8 months off. 1-P1672	11-6	Lewis Dobb	L J Morgan	18/1	10/1	44

There are 5 runners in this race.

Race 6 Stratford 17:12 NH Flat Race (Class 5) 16f

DSLR	HORSE	WGT	JOCKEY	TRAINER	1ST	LT	-%	%
48	1 Banteer Represents a stable enjoyed a good deal of success in bumpers this season and made a pleasing start when runner-up at Exeter. Should go well again. 2	11-2	Bryony Frost	Paul Nicholls	1.88/1	3.33/1	77
125	6 Mount Etna Runner-up sole start in points (Nov 27). Has joined a top trainer who often introduces some of his better types at this track, so worth chancing on Rules debut. 2	11-2	Max Kendrick	Nicky Henderson	4/1	3/1		25
17	9 Westerninthepark Second in a point and filled the same position switched to Rules at Huntingdon last month. Likely to step forward from that. 22	11-2	Bradley Harris	Milton Harris	5.5/1	3.5/1		36
55	5 Lord Of Thunder Runner-up on his sole outing between the flags and was picked up for six figures subsequently, so potentially exciting prospect and demands plenty of respect on Rules bow. 2	11-2	Brendan Powell	Joe Tizzard	7/1	3.33/1		52
41	8 Titan Discovery Pether's Moon gelding. Brother to useful dual bumper winner Lunar Discovery and made a positive start when second of 4 at Newbury first time out. Not discounted. 2	11-2	Mitchell Bastyan	Robbie Llewellyn	12/1	9/1		25
45	2 Brockarno Once-raced maiden. 40/1, third of 6 in bumper at Hereford (16.2f, good) on NH debut 45 days ago. More required. 3	11-2	Lee Edwards	John Groucott	16/1	66/1	313
0	4 Harry Gulliver Linda's Lad gelding. Dam modest 2m-21f hurdle winner, half-sister to fair hurdler/fairly useful chaser (stayed 25f) Clifton Debut. Wears hood.	11-2	Kielan Woods	Alex Hales	20/1	22/1	10
134	3 Connolly Related to a winner but there wasn't much encouragement to be gleaned from his debut at Chepstow. 0	11-2	Tom Bellamy	Emma Lavelle	33/1	28/1		15
122	7 My Monty No show in two bumpers to date and others make more appeal. 8-0	11-2	Toby Wynne	Samuel Drinkwater	150/1	100/1		33
