17:40 Clonmel Maiden Chase 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TOP SPEED was a debut point-to-point winner in 2021 and has useful recent form. He won in a first-time tongue-tie, which is now left off, at Down Royal and being in good form and proven over this distance and on a sound ground, should take beating with race conditions suiting, given he is rated 116 over hurdles. Desert Friend is similarly rated and while capable, is more exposed than the selection and was also well beaten on his recent chase debut. Dual hurdle winner Bonarc ran well enough at Ballinrobe on her reappearance and while she receives plenty weight under her 5lb claimer, might bump into one or two too strong. The Priests Leap was capable in the past but blinkers and cheekpieces have failed to work on recent runs although it is somewhat encouraging connections are persevering. Takarengo, third in the 2020 English Cesarewitch, isn't a natural jumper and was well beaten at Kilbeggan.

TOP SPEED upped his game to score in a novice hurdle at Down Royal and, as an easy winner of his only start in points, he appeals as the type to make a better chaser, so he's preferred to The Priests Leap, who is having just his second outing for Gordon Elliott. Bonarc is another one to consider.

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

COOLE ARCADE was reported to have suffered an over-reach when disappointing at Tipperary last month but is capable of better and is suited by this distance and good ground. Last summer's form was encouraging and despite being a nine-year-old, is lightly-raced and a little unexposed over fences and should improve from his recent Tipperary race, which was also his reappearance. Top Line Tommy won easily at Tramore and while he can cope with a 9lb rise, today's same rider is unable to claim 3lb and he would ideally prefer further. Berliet Express, Dreamsrmadeofthis and Name Me Famous are closely enough matched on a recent Limerick meeting, when finishing second, third and fourth respectively, although each has yet to win over fences.

TOP LINE TOMMY found improvement to open his account at Tramore recently and, if the race doesn't come too soon, he's well capable of following up. Berliet Express is a big danger on the back of a good second at Limerick and Dreamsrmadeofthis can't be discounted.

TOP LINE TOMMY will be hard to beat if he handles the drop back in trip after a career best win in a beginners' at Tramore last week

18:50 Clonmel Maiden Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

CLONDAW HOLLOW ran well in a recent chase and connections have found an ideal opportunity. He point-to-pointed successfully in 2018 and while he made his chase debut just this year, showed enthusiasm for fences when a runner-up at Kilbeggan, is suited by good ground and should cope with the slight drop in distance. Chase debutant Mr Saxobeat has bits of form in staying hurdles and has previous point-to-point experience. He ran respectably at the Punchestown festival in April but might struggle to beat the selection. Britza continues with his lazy running style but his runs this year have been very disappointing and will need more enthusiasm jumping fences for the first time. Indian Admiral pulled up last month although it was his first start for 571 days.

CLONDAW HOLLOW came in a good second at Kilbeggan on just his second start over fences and looks to have been found an excellent opportunity to go one better. Chasing newcomers Britzka and Mr Saxobeat appeal as the duo to chase home John McConnell's fairly useful sort in that order.

It's hard to get away from CLONDAW HOLLOW who has shown enough in two chase starts to suggest he'll have enough for these rivals

19:25 Clonmel Handicap Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

FRANCOIS is a capable hurdler and competes from a favourable chase rating, with his rider claiming 7lb. He initially raced on the Flat in France, was rated 126 over hurdles last year and while well held in his most recent handicap chase at Cork, that was at a much higher level and recently returned to form over hurdles. Room To Roam ran well when last seen in February and being suited by good ground, should compete under his same 7lb claimer. Clody Valley was well held on his two most recent runs but makes his seasonal debut and is an able type at this level on summer ground. Lesssaidthebetter is 7lb out of the handicap under a 7lb claimer and was well held in the uncompetitive Bishopscourt Cup in April.

ROOM TO ROAM ran well at Thurles when last seen 106 days ago and he's well treated based on hurdling form, so he gets the nod ahead of Francois, who was third over hurdles at Down Royal last week. Lesssaidthebetter is another one to consider.

Slight preference is for WILLYWAMPUS who looked promising over fences last term and is on a fair mark for h'cap chase debut

KILBALLYOWEN slips in under the radar for this 0-102 race and should benefit from stepping up in distance. A 130,000 pounds purchase following a point-to-point win for Enda Bolger, his racecourse form is largely poor but stayed on quite nicely at Downpatrick recently and this a weak race. Trendy Lady had useful maiden hurdles form last summer and while well held on most recent starts, should strip fitter following a recent reappearance. She has a hurdles rating of 100 and receives a 7lb mares' allowance. Emir De Rots goes well at this course and while lightly raced over fences in recent times, his 2021 chase form was ok and can place today. Points winner Bonne Derreen was well held over hurdles last summer.

Winning pointer KILBALLYOWEN made a promising start in this sphere when third at Downpatrick and can take a sizeable step forward to open his account at the chief expense of Trendy Lady, who rates the form pick of those with experience. Emir de Rots has been in good nick over hurdles and appeals as the best of the remainder for place purposes now back over fences.

Another step up in trip could be the key for point winner KILBALLYOWEN who showed improved form last time and he's unexposed

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

BAL KAUTO is related to Kauto Star and might do his bit for the family name in winning on his chase debut. Out of a maiden half-sister to the dual Gold Cup winner, his form last year was poor and failed to land a gamble on his first start for new connections in April but recently won over hurdles at Limerick and competes from his revised 90 hurdles' rating on chase debut, in a weak race. Chief Seattle won a similar race last September (beating Rule Of June into sixth) and should strip fitter following a recent reappearance run. Rule Of June has been running well recently and is race-fit while Rudy Catrail, a 12-year-old, returned to some form recently and can get involved.

Not so competitive as the numbers suggest and RULE OF JUNE is weighted to gain a second success in this sphere on the back of her good recent Tramore fifth. Bal Kauto has his first go over fences but is still feared most having landed a Limerick handicap hurdle last time out. In-form Chief Seattle is another who can have a say back in this sphere along with veteran Repeat That.

Not many arrive in-form and it may be worth siding with RUDY CATRAIL who wasn't beaten far last weekend and the longer trip will help

About U.K Horse Racing

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.
