·

4.30 QuinnBet Maiden Hurdle (Class 4, 2m7½f, Good, 4yo+, Win: £4066)

The top two horses in this race, based on their TimeWise Master Ratings (Total), are Bettys Tiara and De Temps En Temps (IRE).

  1. Bettys Tiara
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 285
    • Odds: 2.75
    • Age: 7 years old
    • Trainer: B Pauling (Trainer’s 14-day form: 75%), Ben Pauling
    • Jockey: Callum Pritchard (5), Mr Callum Pritchard
    • Official Rating (OR): 106
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 98
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 126
    • Recent Form: 30-222
    • Days Since Last Race: 56 days
    • Insight: Bettys Tiara has consistently placed second in her last three outings, including a good performance at Worcester (2m7f, good) in July where she was only beaten by an improver. She is described as having “become rather frustrating but certainly deserves to get a hurdling win on the board”. She is versatile regarding ground conditions.
  2. De Temps En Temps (IRE)
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 282
    • Odds: 2.88
    • Age: 6 years old
    • Trainer: M Keighley (Trainer’s 14-day form: 100%), M P Keighley
    • Jockey: Sean Bowen, Sean P Bowen
    • Official Rating (OR): 120
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 117
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 125
    • Recent Form: 214-34
    • Days Since Last Race: 68 days
    • Insight: De Temps En Temps won a slow-ground bumper at Fairyhouse in January. He was a hot favourite for a maiden hurdle at Limerick (2m1f, good) in May, finishing third, and then placed fourth at Bellewstown (2m1f, good) in July. The horse is unraced beyond 2m1f under rules and is making his stable debut, making him difficult to assess over this much longer trip. Despite this, he possesses the form to be a threat if he performs to his best.

5.05 Cambion Cardiac Risk Inthe Young Charity Handicap Chase (Class 5, 2m, Good, 5yo+, Win: £3248)

The top two horses in this race, based on their TimeWise Master Ratings (Total), are Dexter (FR) and Impression Chic (FR).

  1. Dexter (FR)
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 276
    • Odds: 4.50
    • Age: 8 years old
    • Trainer: O Greenall & J Guerriero (Trainer’s 14-day form: 40%), O Greenall / J Guerriero
    • Jockey: Henry Brooke, Henry Brooke
    • Official Rating (OR): 97
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 95
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 106
    • Insight: Dexter is a five-time winner in France. In his limited starts for his current trainer, he stayed on well to win over 2m1f at Cartmel (good) with the front two clear. A 5lb rise in weight is not expected to be too detrimental. He is considered likely to perform well.
  2. Impression Chic (FR)
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 251
    • Odds: 5.50
    • Age: 7 years old
    • Trainer: R Hobson, Richard Hobson
    • Jockey: Charlie Price (3), Charlie Price
    • Official Rating (OR): 96
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 81
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 104
    • Insight: Impression Chic has a strong record over fences with one win and four second-place finishes from six starts. Her most recent runner-up finish was in an uncompetitive race over 2m2f (good to soft). She is expected to be “in the thick of it” in this race.

5.35 Interlink Talent Solutions Handicap Chase (Class 4, 3m, Good, 5yo+, Win: £4700)

The top two horses in this race, based on their TimeWise Master Ratings (Total), are Another Lord (IRE) and Wheresmemoneygone (IRE).

  1. Another Lord (IRE)
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 269
    • Odds: 6.00
    • Age: 8 years old
    • Trainer: M Bowen (Trainer’s 14-day form: 78%), Mickey C Bowen
    • Jockey: James Bowen, James Bowen
    • Official Rating (OR): 103
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 100
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 114
    • Insight: Another Lord handles any ground. He won a lower-grade race over course and distance in June (carrying 3lb less) but then performed poorly at Market Rasen. He is considered a “contender if back on song” and is noted as “best of the rest” in the race spotlight.
  2. Wheresmemoneygone (IRE)
    • TimeWise Total Rating: 261
    • Odds: 3.00
    • Age: 6 years old
    • Trainer: B Pauling (Trainer’s 14-day form: 75%), Ben Pauling
    • Jockey: Ben Jones, Ben Jones
    • Official Rating (OR): 103
    • Topspeed (TS) Rating: 83
    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 115
    • Insight: Wheresmemoneygone impressively won his stable and chase debut at Perth (3m, good). He almost defied a 24lb rise over 3m2f at Uttoxeter. Despite an additional 3lb increase, he is only a 6-year-old and could still show further improvement.

6.05 Cambion Electronics Limited Handicap Hurdle (Class 3, 2m4f, Good, 4yo+, Win: £5651)

    • Age: 7 years old

    • Racing Post Rating (RPR): 91
    • Recent Form: 0-11 over hurdles (meaning no wins in 11 hurdle starts).
    • Insight: While highly rated by TimeWise, Princesse Milania’s actual race record (0-11 over hurdles) and relatively lower OR, TS, and RPR suggest a more challenging task, especially at her given odds. No positive spotlight comments are provided for her in this race.

7.05 Cambion, Jewel In The Peaks Handicap Hurdle (Class 5, 2m7½f, Good, 4yo+, Win: £3248)

    • Insight: Mind Hunter’s “overall record is very mixed and he needs to rebound quickly from last month’s poor Flat run”.
