The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

SLIM MARVEL, who finished third in a mares maiden hurdle here last month, has every chance of going two places better. The six-year-old is somewhat unfortunate to be starting the new season still without a win, as she only went down by a nose when looking all over a winner at Wexford in November. The Andrew Slattery-trained mare won't get many better opportunities. With John Ryan one of the leading trainers at this venue, his representative Drumgill has to be of interest. Although well beaten in a competitive affair at Punchestown last week, the five-yea-old had earlier finished runner-up at Bellewstown. Wandering Rocks, a winner on the flat when trained in Britain, looks another live contender for trainer Bill Durkan.

SLIM MARVEL surpassed her previous efforts when third here last time and could be hard to beat in this company. Midweek Voices might be the main danger ahead of newcomer Dorans Mill.

An ordinary enough maiden hurdle and semingly a good opportunity for recent C&D third SLIM MARVEL (nap)

NEW BARN LANE may be worth chancing on his debut for trainer Conor O'Dwyer. The seven-year-old undoubtedly has the ability to win a race of this nature but tends to pull much too hard. If O'Dwyer has managed to settle the son of Getaway, then he would have strong claims around a tight track which should suit his prominent racing style. Spick And Span, who was twice runner-up in maidens at this track a couple of years back, isn't without her chance. The Aidan Howard-trained mare has been off the racecourse since last September so her fitness has to be taken on trust. Handicap debutant Inthenickoftime, who like the latter also carries the J.P. McManus colours, is open to plenty of improvement.

MISSUS BEETON made a good return on her handicap debut at Bellewstown a fortnight ago and has a decent chance off the same mark if building on that. Red Glory and Dreamz are a couple of several dangers.

Wide open but RED GLORY shaped well enough on his recent handicap debut to suggest he can play a major role here

17:50 Ballinrobe Maiden Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

The Willie Mullins-trained SUPERSUNDAE can score on just his second start for the champion trainer. The fact Mullins ran the five-year-old in the Supreme Novices' Hurdle on his initial outing suggests that the former French trained gelding must have been showing up well at home. Beaten just over ten lengths at the festival, he should find this a formality. Point-to-point winner Marv Michael has twice reached the frame in maiden hurdles, achieving a rating of 112 in the process. Ordinarily that might well be good enough to win a country maiden but the Henry De Bromhead-trained six-year-old looks to have bumped into one here. Kilkee Bay looks one that can make the frame for trainer Gordon Elliott.

SUPERSUNDAE sets the bar very high for a race like this and can't be opposed. Marv Michael had heavy ground as an excuse for a poor run at Limerick last month and can bounce back to form and fill the forecast spot ahead of Gordon Elliott's Kilkee Bay.

Supreme Novices' seventh SUPERSUNDAE takes a huge drop in class and is hard to oppose

CAPTAIN JIMMY, who returned to form with an emphatic success at this track last month, can follow up. The Pat Kelly-trained veteran went clear on the run-in to win easily by five lengths. Although subsequently hit with an 8lb rise, the 11-year-old could well be capable of overcoming that hike in what looks an ordinary race. A dual winner here in 2022, It's Time Again was no match for Captain Jimmy when back in third in the aforementioned race. However, given that the David Barry-trained mare was having her first start in over a year, she might be capable of getting much closer on these revised terms. Mac's Xpress disappointed when sent to Stratford last time but on the balance of his Irish form the Paul Gilligan-trained six-year-old holds claims.

IT'S TIME AGAIN was third to Captain Jimmy at this course last time but that was on the back of an absence so, with a run behind her, she's fancied to turn the tables on that rival in a race that the pair may dominate. Mac's Xpress is also worthy of respect.

A dual course winner over shorter on good ground, IT'S TIME AGAIN can improve enough from her comeback to win again.

18:50 Ballinrobe Handicap Hurdle 21f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

COILLTE ARIS, who went close in two stronger races at Naas recently, can get off the mark. The Sonny Carey-trained mare takes a further step up in trip, something that her breeding suggests should suit. Having had just the six starts in her career, she remains open to progression this season. Any Day Now was a winner at Sligo when last seen back in October. The 6lb rise subsequently inflicted by the handicapper is largely offset by Liam Quinlan claiming 5lb here. Former Listowel bumper runner-up Song For My Father reverts to hurdling here after two starts over fences. The Ross O'Sullivan-trained gelding had some decent maiden runs that would give him a chance of sorts in this lesser company.

COILLTE ARIS arrives in good form and there could be more to come, so she's comfortably the most appealing in a race where most have something to prove. Any Day Now is the obvious danger 6 months on from scoring at Sligo and Bearwithmenow is of interest if the market speaks in his favour.

COILLTE ARIS has been looking like a step up in trip would suit and she can make the breakthrough today.

19:20 Ballinrobe Beginners Chase 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

Former Grade 1 winning hurdler ZENTA can strike on just her second start over fences. The Willie Mullins-trained five-year-old shaped with plenty of promise when third in a Grade 2 Novice Chase in Cork before Christmas. The ex-French trained filly will find this assignment much easier, while the better ground should also be in her favour. Magnor Glory, a winner here over hurdles, looks one of the chief dangers. The Terence O'Brien-trained gelding had some smart form over flights last season, including when runner-up in a Listed race at Killarney. Provided he takes to the larger obstacles, the eight-year-old can get competitive. Charlie Luciano, who made all when winning here last August, has also proven his ability to handle this track.

ZENTA jumped well enough when third on her Cork chase debut in December to think she can translate all of her very useful hurdle ability to fences so she should prove a tough nut to crack here. Like the selection, Magnor Glory has some useful form over hurdles and might provide the chief threat if taking to this new discipline. Extrapolation looks best of the remainder.

A classy hurdler, ZENTA is the top-rated of this field in that sphere, so should take plenty of beating on her second chase start

The Denis Hogan-trained HENNING is sure to be well primed for this first visit to her owners local track. The seven-year-old, who is a three-time winner over hurdles, can race off a 9lb lower mark in this discipline. The fact that the daughter of Rock Of Gibraltar ran her best race over fences on her reappearance augers well on this return from another break. A winner here over hurdles, Presenting Lad commands plenty respect given his liking for the track. It would be no surprise to see the Mark McNiff-trained gelding take a step forward on his two previous runs over fences. At the foot of the weights, Ricky Langford catches the eye for the in-form Philip Rothwell yard.

MISTER WILSON is of some interest now handicapping for the first time over fences and gets the nod for the Gavin Cromwell team. Petit King is another who catches the eye now moving into his first handicap over fences and is second choice ahead of Henry de Bromhead's Great Bear.

Likely drying ground will suit the veteran WHATSAFELLATODO who won here around this time last year after a long absence

20:20 Ballinrobe NH Flat Race 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.

The patience of connections of the well-bred SORRENTINO can be rewarded in this finale. Sent off a warm favourite for a bumper at the Punchestown Festival last year, the gelding unseated before halfway. Having resisted the temptation to return to the County Kildare venue last week, Willie Mullins can see his six-year-old gain compensation here. Kate Knows Best was runner-up on her racecourse debut at Gowran Park in February before running below par at that same track the following month. Given plenty of time to cover, she can show her true ability now. Fatal Flaw is worth a second look in the betting market given that his trainer Johnathan Sweeney is well able to ready one for a bumper.

GERS GIGI is a half-sister to a bumper winner and represents a top yard, so she's worth chancing to make a winning start for all that Sorrentino is a big player 12 months on from unseating (when sent off a short price) on debut. The Gray Ghost also has something to recommend him on pedigree.

SORRENTINO was well-backed when slipping up on debut at Punchestown a year ago but it is notable that he has been persevered with.

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.
