Man Is King |
(10) (80/1 +20%)80/1(+20%) | (10) Man Is King 80/1, Modest gelding. Remains a maiden after 21 Flat runs. Offered little when thirteenth of 15 in handicap (80/1) at Leopardstown (9f, heavy) 6 months ago. 0-21; tailed off on heavy when last seen; hard to recommend on back of 175-day absence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (3) (13/8 +19%) Gandolfo |
13/8(+19%) | (3) Gandolfo 13/8, Unreliable sort. Wasn't seen to best effect when ninth of 14 in handicap (15/2) at Punchestown (8.1f, good) 15 days ago, left poorly placed. Blinkers back on. Folly to ignore back in maiden company. 0-11; some promising efforts in maidens last season; went close in h'cap 2 starts ago. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (7/2 -40%) Dark Viper |
7/2(-40%) | (1) Dark Viper 7/2, Fair gelding. 6/1, better than result when sixth of 14 in handicap at Listowel (7.1f, good to soft) 8 days ago, losing place when hampered approaching straight. 0-13; hit crossbar twice before lesser run last week; tough ask at the weights. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (7) (9/4 -29%) Red Special |
9/4(-29%) | (7) Red Special 9/4, Fair gelding. 25/1, wasn't seen to best effect but stepped up on reappearance when fourth of 10 in maiden at Laytown (7f) 16 days ago, not clear run from 3f out. Visor back on. Enters calculations returned to turf. Encouraging 4th when beaten 1l at Laytown; may build on that back up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (5) (9/2 -35%) Goldrush Kid |
9/2(-35%) | (5) Goldrush Kid 9/2, Probably needed the run after 4 months off when ninth of 13 in handicap at the Curragh (5f, good, 9/1) 39 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Expected to be bang there in this grade. Progressed with each run before low-key h'cap debut; not sure to appreciate new trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (20/1 +0%) Lost Soul |
20/1(+0%) | (9) Lost Soul 20/1, Went with little encouragement when thirteenth of 14 in maiden (50/1) at Punchestown (9.2f, good) on debut 15 days ago. Well held 50-1 shot in a Punchestown maiden last month and needs to leave that behind. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (8) (100/1 -100%) Rene Artois |
100/1(-100%) | (8) Rene Artois 100/1, 50/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Fairyhouse (16f, soft) when last seen 12 months ago. Significantly down in trip. Cheekpieces on for 1st time. Well beaten on Flat for current connections so looks an easy swerve. 0-14; showed plenty of promise in 2021 but lost his way last year and off a year. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (6) (100/1 +0%) Purrrfect Timing |
100/1(+0%) | (6) Purrrfect Timing 100/1, Visored for 1st time, again showed little when twelfth of 13 in maiden at the Curragh (8f, good to soft, 200/1) back in June. Barely beaten a rival in two runs so far and hard to make a case for. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (11) (150/1 -50%) Begleys Forge |
150/1(-50%) | (11) Begleys Forge 150/1, Yet to show any ability, tailed off on return from 12 months off when eleventh of 13 in maiden (200/1) at Cork (8f, good to firm) 3 weeks ago. Shown very little at huge prices in four starts so far. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (150/1 -50%) Easyshineadiamond |
150/1(-50%) | (2) Easyshineadiamond 150/1, 150/1, offered little when last of 11 in maiden at the Curragh (6f, soft) on debut 12 months ago. Significantly up in trip. Tailed off 150-1 shot on debut 375 days ago; up in trip. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (4) (80/1 -21%) Zoffany Gold |
80/1(-21%) | (4) Zoffany Gold 80/1, Tongue strap on, very green and reportedly made a respiratory noise when thirteenth of 14 in maiden (40/1) at Gowran (8f, good) on debut back in June. Tailed off when only beating one home at Gowran in June; off 107 days. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
DARK VIPER is the suggestion in this weak affair. Placed five times in eight starts for current connections, he didn't get the run of the race when sixth at Listowel last week. Beaten by just half a length on his penultimate start, he had two subsequent winners in behind. The highest rated of those with a mark, Gandolfo is the obvious danger. After some excellent efforts as a juvenile, the Churchill chestnut hasn't been the most consistent in recent times. Beaten by just a short head at Gowran last month, he since failed to make an impact after a slow start at Punchestown. Placed twice from four outings, Goldrush Kid is of definite interest, while Laytown fourth Red Special is another to consider.
Only a handful of these make any serious appeal, RED SPECIAL getting the vote to open his account in refitted headgear having not been seen to best effect at Laytown last month. Second choice is Goldrush Kid, who probably needed the run after 4 months off making his handicap debut at the Curragh last time, while Gandolfo and Dark Viper have both shown enough to be involved too so round off the shortlist.
GANDOLFO wasn't seen to best effect in a Punchestown h'cap last week but he went close on his penultimate start and should go well here

Rampage |
(1) (7/2 +13%)7/2(+13%) | (1) Rampage 7/2, Capitalised on a falling mark in 13-runner handicap at Dundalk (8f) 5 days ago. Carries penalty. Visor back on. Ended losing run on AW on Friday but tougher ask here under 7lb penalty with wide draw. |

Breezy Zoff |
(4) (7/2 +22%)7/2(+22%) | (4) Breezy Zoff 7/2, One win from 33 Flat runs. Twenty one runs since last win in 2022. Fifth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, good, 12/1) 22 days ago. Not taken lightly. 1-33; relishes testing ground and not beaten far last 2 starts; has gone well here before. |

Pimstrel |

Little Keilee |
(3) (7/1 +13%)7/1(+13%) | (3) Little Keilee 7/1, 10/1, run best excused when fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Galway (7f, good) 22 days ago, caught wider than ideal. Better judged on previous form. Best turf form on testing ground; well held latest but generally a consistent sort. |

Trishuli River |
(7) (10/1 +17%)10/1(+17%) | (7) Trishuli River 10/1, 12/1, fourteenth of 18 in handicap at Cork (8.9f, good to firm) 47 days ago. Sole win came on AW and was well held back on turf at Cork last time; ground an unknown. |

Fastman |
(10) (14/1 -40%)14/1(-40%) | (10) Fastman 14/1, C&D winner. Twenty two runs since last win in 2022. 12/1, respectable fifth of 15 in handicap at this course (8f, good to soft) 36 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Losing run since C&D win in 2022 and that's only win since 2018; struggling of late. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Feature This |
(5) (22/1 -340%)22/1(-340%) | (5) Feature This 22/1, Latest win at Leopardstown in May. Failed to justify support when fifth of 13 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 4/1) 12 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Paul W. Flynn. Got first win on turf at Leopardstown in May; new yard and may not want soft ground. |

Omakase |
(6) (33/1 +34%)33/1(+34%) | (6) Omakase 33/1, 13/2 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, ran below form when sixth of 14 in nursery at Dundalk (7f) when last seen. Off over 3 years. First run for yard after leaving Joseph Patrick O'Brien. Nine-race maiden and hasn't been seen since 2020; new yard. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
After winning at Dundalk on Friday, Rampage is sure to have plenty of supporters, carrying a 7lb winner's penalty. No worse than fifth in five visits to Bellewstown, another bold bid looks likely from the locally trained five-year-old. However, it is SKONTONOVSKI who gets the nod if turned out quickly following his Cork engagement on Tuesday. A brilliant servant to connections, the nine-time winner has been knocking on the door of late, keeping on well to finish fourth at Listowel last week. Successful over this course and distance in July, Amanirenas might be able to bounce back from some below par recent efforts. A five time winner for Paul Flynn, Feature This is of definite interest on his first start for Ian Donoghue, while others for the shortlist in this competitive affair are Breezy Zoff, Pimstrel and Fastman.
SKONTONOVSKI is on a good mark and has been running well lately, so he's put forward as the answer. Breezy Zoff and Little Keilee head up the opposition.
It might be worth chancing PIMSTREL who hit the frame over this course and distance when last seen and softer ground should suit

Sneddy Eddie |

|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Ivasecret |
(5) (6/1 -50%)6/1(-50%) | (5) Ivasecret 6/1, Much improved when winning 10-runner claimer at Laytown (7f, 7/4) 16 days ago, pushed out. First run for yard after leaving Ian Williams. Colin Keane but will need a bit more back in a handicap. Bolted up in Laytown claimer last month but poor record on testing ground. |

Manhattan Dandy |
(3) (6/1 -71%)6/1(-71%) | (3) Manhattan Dandy 6/1, Won this 12 months ago. 15/2, below form sixth of 15 in handicap at Roscommon (7.4f, soft) 30 days ago but capable of bouncing back. 2 wins on heavy and ran well from the front when 6th latest; respected from stall one. |

Angel On Fire |

Zero Fighter |

Prince Of Abington |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Manhattan Dandy won this contest 12 months ago, while Mogwli was successful on the same card. Both have failed to trouble the judge in recent starts, but are capable of making an impact. Sneddy Eddie is another course and distance winner in the line-up and after finishing third at Roscommon early last month, it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a few places better now. With Colin Keane aboard, IVASECRET looks the one to beat. Claimed by current connection after an easy success for Ian Williams at Laytown, the six-time winner will be well fancied to follow-up. Second over this course and distance in July, Perfect Curves warrants respect with Keithen Kennedy claiming a valuable 7lb, while Zero Fighter is another for the shortlist.
SNEDDY EDDIE arrives in form and won his previous visit here so he gets the nod. Manhattan Dandy won this 12 months ago so don't be surprised to see him bounce back to form and make a bold bid in this race again. Gordon Elliott's Perfect Curve is another with C&D form and completes the shortlist.
SNEDDY EDDIE gave it a good go from the front when placed at Roscommon last month and he can confirm the form with Manhattan Dandy

Copie Conforme |
(1) (2/1 +27%)2/1(+27%) | (1) Copie Conforme 2/1, Resumed progress to land a second course victory in 15-runner handicap here (8f, good to soft, 10/3) just over 5 weeks ago, leading under 2f out. 7 lb rise to contend with but has to be considered at this venue (2-2 currently). Dual C&D winner, up 7lb for win here on latest, unproven on soft, claims if handling it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Proleek Prince |
(2) (10/3 -122%)10/3(-122%) | (2) Proleek Prince 10/3, Steadily progressed with each run since the switch to handicaps and finally got off the mark in 14-runner handicap at Punchestown (8.1f, good, 8/1) just over 2 weeks ago, having run of race. May yet have more to offer so expected to be bang there. Made all at Punchestown latest, up 6lb but jockey's claim helps, bold bid likely. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
The Bog Bank |
(7) (4/1 -33%)4/1(-33%) | (7) The Bog Bank 4/1, 4-time C&D winner. 4/1, career best when winning 15-runner handicap at this course (8f, good to soft) just over 5 weeks ago, staying on to lead well inside final 1f. 7 lb higher but folly to ignore given her track record. Won two of last four, both over C&D, softer ground and career high mark to contend with. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Polar Bear |
(5) (13/2 +7%)13/2(+7%) | (5) Polar Bear 13/2, Course winner. Fourteen runs since last win in 2023. 11/1, below form on his first start away from the turf when ninth of 10 in handicap at Laytown (6f) 16 days ago, slowly away. Significantly back up in trip. Can make presence felt back in headgear. Course winner, ran well here last month over 5f, stamina to prove, others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Lust |
(3) (17/2 +66%)17/2(+66%) | (3) Lust 17/2, Continues to fall in the weights without showing any sign of taking advantage, better placed than most when 5 lengths seventh of 14 to Proleek Prince in handicap (40/1) at Punchestown (8.1f, good) just over 2 weeks ago. Dropped another 3 lb. Yet to win for current yard, soft ground suits, career low mark and can't be discounted. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Givemehoperosa |
(8) (11/1 +21%)11/1(+21%) | (8) Givemehoperosa 11/1, 15/2, shaped as if amiss after 13 weeks off when tailed-off last of 14 in handicap at Roscommon (7.5f, heavy) just over 6 weeks ago (reportedly coughing and distressed post race). Must bounce back. 1m1f Leopardstown maiden winner on heavy last year, can only be watched after latest run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
Mile End |
(4) (18/1 -29%)18/1(-29%) | (4) Mile End 18/1, Fared little better when tenth of 14 in handicap at Galway (7f, soft, 33/1) a couple of months ago. Not easy to make a case for. Not beaten far at Galway, 4lb below last winning mark, soft ground suits, could go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Already twice successful over the course and distance this season, both COPIE CONFORME and The Bog Bank are sure to prove popular with punters. The Kevin Prendergast-trained former is marginally preferred. A consistent sort, she'll be ridden by the experienced Jack Cleary, who is enjoying his best campaign to date. From the nearby village of Kentstown, Alyse Clarke has been aboard The Bog Bank for his two most recent successes. The young apprentice again takes the ride and claims a valuable 4lb. Polar Bear and Rhythm King are other course winners in the line-up, with the former upped in trip after a disappointing effort at Laytown. The progressive Proleek Prince made the breakthrough at Punchestown recently and is another obvious contender.
PROLEEK PRINCE has been steadily progressive since being switched to handicaps and he's fancied to follow up his breakthrough success at Punchestown last month at the chief expense of Copie Conforme, who is 2-2 at this course but may have to settle for silver this time. The Bog Bank, who boasts 4 C&D wins and was successful here again just over 5 weeks ago, completes the shortlist.
Preference is for PROLEEK PRINCE. He has run ok on soft before and his jockey's claim offsets most of his 6lb rise for his recent win.

Tongue strap on for 1st time, cheekpieces on for 1st time. Tailed off on debut, can only be watched in first-time tongue tie and cheekpieces. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
PANSY POE is unlikely to get a better opportunity to open her account. An 80,000-euro yearling purchase, the 73-rated bay has been placed four times from eight starts. Versatile with regards to ground, she was third when last seen at the Curragh, with subsequent winner Just For One Day a place behind. Rated just 1lb inferior, The Poacher Daly is the obvious danger. Without a win in nine starts, he has been placed twice and finished third when last seen at Down Royal. Limoncello Lady (first time visor) ran her best race to date when beaten by just a head at Navan recently and it'll come as no surprise if she manages to go a place better now. Third in a weak contest at Tipperary in May, Times In Oz warrants respect in first-time cheekpieces.
PANSY POE arrives with comfortably the best form to her name and this seems like an excellent opportunity for her to get off the mark. The Poacher Daly and Limoncello Lady are both respected for all that they'll need to find improvement.
It might be worth taking a chance on TIMES IN OZ. She ran well on soft at Tipperary and the booking of Keane looks significant.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A case can be made for all seven. Successful in this very contest 12 months ago and rated 1lb lower now, MICKEY THE STEEL is the selection. Not seen since April, the four-time winner has been given a chance by the handicapper and will be ridden by young apprentice Sam Coen who claims a valuable 10lb. Inishmot Prince finished with a flourish when registering his first win on turf at Navan recently, and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to follow-up. A close fifth in that Proudstown Park contest, Rathbranchurch will have his supporters, while Escaping Thejungle, who hinted at a return to form when fourth at Laytown, is another leading hope.
Last year's winner MICKEY THE STEEL could be geared up for a big run back from a break and 1 lb lower than for that success. Navan winner Inishmot Prince and Distillate are feared.
Preference is for ESCAPING THEJUNGLE. The C&D winner is 13lb lower than when beat a head at Cork last year and she ran well at Laytown.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
The Joseph O'Brien-trained RADAR AHEAD can strike at the third time of asking. A strong finishing third having missed the break on her debut at Ballinrobe in June, the daughter of Postponed ran a big race when runner-up in stronger company at Galway last time. With the benefit of those experiences, the three-year-old should be able to make the breakthrough. Mythical Rock, who has finished second on his latest two outings, is unlikely to be far away. Trainer Alan McIntyre has his string in excellent form at present. Emma Calve should appreciate stepping up in trip here having caught the eye with her finishing effort at Navan on debut. Although a more galloping track may suit better, the well-bred filly has to be of interest.
RADAR AHEAD stepped up on her debut when second at Galway last time, doing some good late work. She's likely to do better again and makes most appeal for all that the likes of Young Churchill and Mythical Rock are closely matched with her at the weights.
The most obvious one is RADAR AHEAD; the form of her Galway second was boosted by the winner at Listowel and she should be thereabouts

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A consistent filly since joining the Willie McCreery stable, KEILAH can gain a second career win. Held up off the pace when opening her account at Punchestown last month, the four-year-old just failed to double up under similar tactics at Navan last time. From a wide draw, Billy Lee is likely to drop the daughter of Harzand out before coming with a late run. Stepping back up to this trip should suit. Arch Enemy, who has gone close on a couple of occasions this season, has to be of interest with her capable apprentice taking off 10lb here. Patrick Street finished a creditable third at Galway last month and a similar level of performance would bring him into the reckoning.
KEILAH is in top form and can resume winning ways if getting the longer trip. Arch Enemy and Black Soul are a couple of others to consider.
WISDOMOFHINDSIGHT didn't see out 2m2f at Down Royal last time but he previously went close and he can resume progress down in trip

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.
