Lockwood Premium British Smocks Conditional Jockeys' Handicap Hurdle

Little Pi

Blue Universe

The form of LITTLE PI's second here before Christmas is strong and he's fancied to end his losing run. A Good Yomp might be the danger, ahead of Raby Mere.

Huntingdon Racecourse 2026 Fixtures On Sale Handicap Chase

Carpe Diem

Martalmix'jac

ZOEMAN remains with few miles on the clock and signalled he is ready to strike when runner-up at Ludlow last time out so looks the way to go. Night Jet, Sanitiser, Wings On Wheels and Malfoy Manor are all in the mix too. 

Gin And Dubonnet Lady Protectress Mares' Chase (Listed) (GBB Race)

Jasmine Bliss

Piper Park

On the face of it JASMINE BLISS should have her work cut out to match strides with Paggane, who is is a proven performer at this level and 2-3 under Harry Cobden. Indeed, the latter is the one with the strongest credentials on paper but Jasmine Bliss shaped very well tackling fences for the first time back from a nine-month absence at Kempton on Boxing Day and she may well take a significant step forward here. All The Glory is best of the rest.

Hook Polo Novices' Handicap Hurdle (GBB Race)

Westlain

Eastern Shores

EASTERN SHORES shaped as though crying out for 2½m+ when putting in good late work to finish third at Catterick last time but, likely to benefit from more of an end-to-end gallop now switched to handicap company, she could be the answer. Lunar Orbit is a much-respected main danger on the back of breakthrough success in this sphere at Market Rasen, while Bushstreet Bowman will be of interest if the market speaks in his favour now handicapping.

Don Lockwood Sidney Banks Memorial Novices' Hurdle (Listed) (GBB Race)

Act Of Innocence

Glance At Midnight

ACT OF INNOCENCE proved too strong for Sinnatra at Newbury in November and is taken to confirm his superiority over Dan Skelton's charge here. Though turned over at a very skinny price back at that Berkshire venue during the Christmas period, Act of Innocence was only beaten ¾-length by the winner, who was receiving 20 lb and subsequently finished third in a Cheltenham Grade 2, and this step up in trip will be right up his street. Lady Tadita is third choice.

Nouvelle Habit Mares' Handicap Hurdle

Delta Blues Belle

Briery Butterfly

DELTA BLUES BELLE's five runs under Rules have all been at around 2m and this point winner can be expected to take a big step forward now faced with a stiffer test. She gets the nod, although solid cases can also be made for Briery Butterfly, Newmill Getaway and Stamina Chope.

Lockwood Premium British Smocks Open NH Flat Race (GBB Race)

Wilde's Legacy

Solo Eclipse

Loch Ness Pineau

LOCH NESS PINEAU shaped promisingly when denied only by one with the benefit of Rules experience at Hereford on his debut last month and is the obvious choice to go one better. Power of Silence is a noteworthy Rules newcomer having joined a top stable, with Wilde's Legacy respected under a penalty. 

Doncaster

Virgin Bet Conditional Jockeys' Novices' Limited Handicap Hurdle

Harley's Pride

Call Your Bluff

Fox Cottage

CALL YOUR BLUFF ran well under his young pilot at Hereford 7 weeks ago and looks the way to go in a thin contest. You Did is respected, while Harley's Pride is interesting now going handicapping up in trip for David Pipe.

Virgin Bet EBF Junior 'National Hunt' Hurdle (GBB Race)

Mustang Du Breuil

Milou Du Chenet

Molly's Lad

MUSTANG DU BREUIL sets the standard on his French form and looks a likely improver for his new yard. He can land the spoils. Milou du Chenet and Pippin's Legend may provide the chief threat. 

Virgin Bet Every Saturday Money Back Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

Count Of Vendome

Stanners Glen

Not At That Price

Only a handful of these make any serious appeal, COUNT OF VENDOME getting the nod to go one better than on hurdling debut having snatched defeat from the jaws of victory late at Bangor in November. Stanners Glen was held back by inexperience when sent off a well-backed favourite at Taunton 8 weeks ago, but he looks most threatening here, with Dan Skelton's once-raced French Flat recruit King Esoteric completing the shortlist. 

Virgin Bet Daily Price Boosts Handicap Hurdle

Huffin An A Puffin

Storming George

I'M A LUMBERJACK appeals most despite a 3 lb rise, having travelled smoothly in his first-time hood at Newbury 38 days ago. He's on a fair mark and can take this, while Smokeringinthedark bounced back returned to better ground at Musselburgh last time and looks a danger. It's too soon to dismiss Storming George now switched to handicaps over a longer trip.

Virgin Bet Novices' Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Mumford's Magic

Kadjar Des Mottes

MUMFORD'S MAGIC made an encouraging return from a lengthy absence at Uttoxeter on New Year's Eve and can open his account here. Kalhandrion has made a solid start to his chasing career and looks the obvious danger. 

Virgin Bet Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Another Fine Mess

Empty Nest

ANOTHER FINE MESS has few miles on the clock and produced a career best when scoring over hurdles at Chepstow in December. Upped in trip he may have more to offer yet and is taken to make a successful debut over the larger obstacles here. Empty Nest and Busty Boy could be the dangers. 

Virgin Bet Mares' Handicap Hurdle

I Am The Moon

Lets Go To Vegas

SCAVENGERS REIGN confirmed the promise of her earlier novice hurdle efforts when winning a 14-runner maiden at Wetherby 41 days ago, still sprinting at the line, and looks the one to beat on her handicap debut. The danger could be Lets Go To Vegas, who probably remains in form despite her Windsor fourth and is respected for all this trip may be on the sharp side.

Lingfield

At The Races App Expert Tips Conditional Jockeys' Training Series Handicap Hurdle

Tommy Dillion

A Mere Bagatelle

RAFFLES NOBU hasn't fully fired since leaving Nicky Henderson but shaped with plenty of encouragement when fourth at this course 17 days ago, travelling strongly before the 20f trip found him out. The drop back to 2m looks ideal and, with blinkers reapplied, he can get back on track. Ask Peter ran well at Taunton on Tuesday, while A Mere Bagatelle is entitled to come on significantly for his recent return from a five-month absence.

Watch Unbridled On attheraces.com Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

Big Ticket

Lil Fortune

BIG TICKET won his point-to-point and made a bright start over hurdles when runner-up twice before pulling up at Ascot with an overreach. He looks the one to beat on previous form. Matthias showed promise on his hurdling debut after a near 2-year absence when third at Chepstow and should improve, while Dropematthestation's Warwick form has worked out well and there should be better to come.

attheraces.com/marketmovers Maiden Hurdle (GBB Race)

Keno Black

Largy Go

Le Fabuleux Buck's

The juvenile LOVE YOU BACK receives weight from the majority of his rivals and sets the standard on his encouraging second at Warwick. The most interesting rival could well be Largy Go, who cost £305,000 after winning an Irish point almost a year ago. Several of the remainder have already shown enough form to hold frame claims, with Le Fabuleux Buck's getting the nod to complete the placings.

Sky Sports Racing Sky 415 Handicap Chase (GBB Race)

Big City Roller

OFFICER OF STATE looked an improved model when opening his account in this sphere at Windsor last month and can make light of a 6 lb rise. The lightly-raced Big City Roller could emerge as the main danger if building on his Exeter reappearance.

Atlantic Power

Welcheston Warrier

OSTERBERG has been steadily progressive this season, winning at Ffos Las 28 days ago, and remains unexposed as a stayer, so could defy a 6lb rise. Atlantic Power finished second at Fontwell last time and has claims if building on that back over a longer trip, while two-time course winner Getaway With You continues in good form. Hot Rod Lincoln is worth a second look in the betting.

El Rojo Grande

EL ROJO GRANDE has really found his feet of late and is difficult to oppose in his hat-trick bid given he goes unpenalised for his recent Ffos Las conditional jockeys' victory. C&D scorer Bobbi's Beauty rates much the biggest threat now back at her optimum trip.

Southwell

Roaring Ralph

Volendam

Boujee Gold

ROARING RALPH has been shaping well in recent weeks with a pair of runner-up finishes at this course and he looks capable of going one better. Amarachi is in good form herself with successive placed efforts at this C&D and can make her presence felt again, while it'll be interesting to see what the betting makes of the Tony Carroll trio. 

Make The Move To Midnite Classified Stakes

Dubai Magic

Beneficiary

Glendown

UP THE MONK benefited from a change of headgear when taking a similar event at Chelmsford last week and may be able to follow up. Autumn Angel and Dubai Magic can also make their presence felt. 

Always Gamble Responsibly At BetMGM Handicap

Mr Juggles

Allegrino

Preference is for BAKER BLUE, who was clear of the remainder when a close second here last month and remains feasibly treated. Must Be Ten may provide the chief threat. 

BetMGM Supports Safer Gambling Novice Stakes (GBB/GBBPlus Race)

Shabab Al Ahli

ASIA FORCE failed to land the odds on his introduction at Newcastle but that experience will have done him the world of good and he gets the nod ahead of likely-looking Godolphin newcomer Shabab Al Ahli, who is also a son of Frankel and it goes without saying that his prospects will look brighter still if the market speaks in his favour. Patient Game is also worth a peek in the betting.

Midnite, Building The Future Of Betting Handicap (Div 1)

Havachoc

Haliphon

Night Bear

A case can be made for a few of these but HAVACHOC opened his account in taking style in a classified event at Wolverhampton last time and is weighted to follow up back in handicap company. Argentum made an encouraging return from a lay-off when third at Kempton recently and is next on the list, although last year's victor Lednikov could also have a say along with Night Bear and Abu Royal. 

Midnite, Building The Future Of Betting Handicap (Div 2)

Smokey Malone

Duchess

Karismatique

DUCHESS bounced back to form when winning here last month and performed at least as well when second under a penalty at Kempton 22 days ago. She returns to the scene of that success up 3 lb and clearly at the top of her game, she should be bang there once again. Moon Over The Sea scored here recently and provided he puts a lesser effort behind him, he can offer most resistance ahead of last-time-out winner Smokey Malone. 

Win 250,000 With BetMGM's Golden Goals Handicap

Aisling Oscar

Studious

Shaw Park

AISLING OSCAR has proven a revelation since joining Adrian Keatley from Ireland and the thriving 5-year-old can make it 8 wins on the spin. Marry The Night is yet to run a poor race at C&D and can pose the biggest threat on the back of his own victory a fortnight ago, with Studious looking a solid option to complete the 1-2-3.

Bet 10 Get 40 With BetMGM Handicap (Div 1)

Fools Rush In

No Knee Never

Asian Journey

CILL MOCHEALLOG had been working his way back to form since being fitted with blinkers and gained a belated first success for this yard last time. He edges the verdict in a competitive race, with the James Owen pair No Knee Never - who had several of his rivals in behind when scoring at C&D last month - and Simply Blue also high on the shortlist.

Bet 10 Get 40 With BetMGM Handicap (Div 2)

My Mate Mike

King Of York

Habrdi

Four-time C&D winner KING OF YORK made a pleasing return here last week and could be the way to go down in class. How's The Guvnor and Secret Road both failed to land a blow in the same race at Wolverhampton on Tuesday but had been in good form and can bounce back.

Thurles

Horse & Jockey Beginners Chase

Salvator Mundi

Fishery Lane

Dr Eggman

A 1-2-3 for the Willie Mullins yard could be on the cards with apparent first-string SALVATOR MUNDI taken to see off stablemates Dr Eggman and Fishery Lane. The selection's odds-on chase debut reverse now looks all the better in light of the winner's subsequent success in Grade 3 company and while he failed to land a blow at Leopardstown next time, that was in Grade 1 company. The 6-y-o will take plenty of stopping in these calmer waters.

Racing Again On The 19th February Handicap Chase

Quornofamonday

Tell Us This

West Of Carrig

Mount Frisco

Plenty are in with a shout but the nod goes to JOURNEY SO FAR who appeals as a likely improver now going into handicaps for the shrewd Gavin Cromwell team and can gain a breakthrough success. River Vale also looks to have better days ahead of him and heads the list of dangers, although a solid case can also be made for Kilbrin Rocco, Luimneach and West of Carrig in this highly competitive event. 

Holycross Maiden Hurdle

Laurets D'estruval

Jet To Monte Carlo

Playtime

LE LABO had matters under control at the point of his final-flight departure at Cork and he will prove a tough nut to crack if able to avoid any mishaps this time. French recruit Laurets d'Estruval made a bright start for present connections when second in a big-field Limerick maiden hurdle and he is an obvious danger, while Maxfort is third on the list ahead of Bulgaden Castle.

www.thurlesraces.ie Maiden Hurdle

Puma's Dream

Powerful Paddy

Vitorio Piel

FOU DE TOI is in excellent hands and sets the standard on his French juvenile form. He looks the likeliest winner. Vitorio Piel and Puma's Dream rate the principal dangers. 

Thurles Rated Novice Hurdle

Timeless Treaty

Sunny South West

A cracking novice in which Paul Nolan's unexposed GIN TONIC is taken to resume from a break in style and go 2-3 in this sphere. Timeless Treaty has experience on his side and could emerge as the chief threat for his in-form yard.

William Hill Each Way Extra Challenge Series Handicap Hurdle (0-100)

Aine's Lad

Milanaway

Cordal Boy

Fortunate Outcome

SNOW PUNT returns to hurdles after showing promise over fences and looks well-treated on best form. Empire Walk caught the eye when runner-up in a field of 16 at Naas 52 days ago and looks capable of better on his handicap debut, while there could be more to come from Fairyhouse winner Kanog Bay. 

John Thomas McNamara Series Flat Race

Leonard Vallis

Thinkitdontjinxit

Barnpark

GREENHILLS OF CORK produced a promising first effort when fourth in a big-field bumper at Listowel in September, form which has worked out well, so he's taken to strike at the second time of asking with improvement on the cards. Thinkitdontjinxit is a most interesting Rules newcomer having been purchased for £185,000 following an easy victory in points, while Drombane looks another likely improver.
