LTO Selection:

13:55 Clonmel Maiden Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

With Danny Mullins taking over in the saddle, WALMIX might be able to take this ordinary contest. Successful in a bumper at Wexford in June, the French bred five-year-old has performed with credit in three starts over hurdles since. He should be able to put the experience gain to good use now and it'll be disappointing if he is not involved towards the business end. Turned out again quickly after winning at Down Royal on Monday, Red Trail is given second preference. Fifth on her most recent try over flights at Naas in March, the hat-trick seeking chestnut is sure to prove popular with punters. While frustrating to follow, Ta Na La should be able to make her presence felt, getting valuable sex and age weight allowances. A runner-up at Kilbeggan earlier this month, Rock Ya Boy Ya is another that warrants respect, along with Fast Medicine, Conyers Hill and Arnacoeur.

Having made the frame on all 4 starts over hurdles, TA NA LA probably found the test inadequate back on the Flat when fourth in a Laytown maiden (7.2f) 16 days ago. Returned to timber, she could be worth siding with to come out on top in a maiden lacking depth. Conyers Hill and Arnacoeur head up the dangers.

LTO Selection:

14:30 Clonmel Claiming Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Bal De Rio (11,000 euros) has excelled in races of this nature and starting off for James McAuley, it'll come as no surprise if he adds to his tally. STARMAN finished behind the admirable 10-year-old at Bellewstown last month, but with a swing in the weights, he might be able to reverse the form. In for just 5,000 euros, the Declan Queally-trained selection was outclassed at Navan on his most recent start and should appreciate this drop in grade. Rotten Row (15,000 euros) has been in fine form of late and it'll be disappointing if he is not involved towards the business end. Already a four-time winner, he is rated 10lb higher over the larger obstacles. Returning to flights for the first time in well over a year, Coole Arcade (5,000 euros) is capable of making his presence felt, while the 115-rated Kashi (15,000 euros) is another that warrants respect.

STARMAN wasn't disgraced in the face of a stiff task at Navan recently and could be the way to go back in a claimer. Bal de Rio was just ahead of him in a similar event at Bellewstown last month and can go well again. Rotten Row is another to consider.

LTO Selection:

15:05 Clonmel Handicap Hurdle 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

COSTANUCI might be able to follow up on her Listowel success. The John Queally-trained six-year-old came from off the pace at the County Kerry venue and ultimately won in convincing fashion. Now on a career high mark of 104, she will be ridden by Neil Ryan who claims a valuable 7lb. Handicap debutant The Grey Dove is given second preference. She made the breakthrough on her fourth start over flights at Sligo last month and is open to further progress. Theonewedreamof hinted at a return to form when a never nearer fourth at Downpatrick recently and it'll be interesting to see if she can build on that performance. In truth, it's difficult to safely rule out any of these. A solid fifth on her handicap debut here in May, Ballycashin warrants respect for Tony and Danny Mullins, while Bynx and Phils Choice are other leading hopes.

This looks competitive but CONSTANUCI clearly benefited from the step back up in trip and ultimately won with a bit to spare when landing a Listowel handicap (20f) 11 days ago and she gets the narrow vote to defy a rise in the weights. Ballycashin, back from a break, remains with potential and she's feared, along with Phils Choice and Sligo-winner The Grey Dove.

Tony and Danny Mullins again have strong claims here with Duncarrig. The six-year-old chestnut done well to win at Navan after making a bad mistake at the last and he'll be well fancied to follow up now. The Matthew Smith-trained Ragin Cajun sprang a surprise when winning easily at Listowel last week and a reproduction of that performance would see him hard to beat. Smith also saddles GIGANTAMAX EEVEE and a chance is taken on this Mount Nelson five-year-old. She came in for plenty of market support at Listowel and was in the process of running a fine race when falling two out. Rated just 80, she is open to further progress. A case can be made for many others in this competitive affair. Shark Hanlon saddles an interesting contender in the shape of handicap debutant Chasing Chances, while Flemensreva (first-time tongue-strap), Briana Lily and More Info are other leading hopes.

Having landed an 18-runner event at Listowel with something in hand last week, RAGIN CAJUN is well worth a chance to go in again despite the penalty. Most of the others have a bit to prove but More Info and Walk In Time should give their running.

LTO Selection:

16:15 Clonmel Maiden Chase 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

IRIDESCENT should be able to put his experience to good use. Two from three over fences, the Jonathan Fogarty-trained nine-year-old has a rating of 121. He finished second to Glenquin Castle at Galway earlier this month and this looks a good opportunity for him to register a fifth career success. Starting off over the larger obstacles, The Short Go is given second preference. The Fame And Glory bay finished no worse than third on his first five starts, but disappointed when a well-beaten sixth of eight on his latest outing at Ballybrit. Bella Bliss is the other leading hope and is two from two since switching to fences. She done well to strike on her chasing debut at Ballinrobe, before following up when coming home alone in a two-runner contest at Kelso. Alex Harvey again takes the ride on the Getaway six-year-old, with the capable amateur claiming a valuable 7lb.

IRIDESCENT took another step forward in defeat in a Galway handicap chase last time and could edge out Bella Bliss who is 2-2 in this sphere. The Short Go is clearly of interest going chasing for Henry de Bromhead but it's not certain he'll stay 3m.

(8) Shean Glory 11/1, Modest winner at 19f over hurdles. 20/1, merely closed up late when 11½ lengths fifth of 11 to Padraic's Choice in handicap chase at Downpatrick (19.2f, good) 31 days ago. Looks to need further respite from the handicapper on current evidence.
Ran ok behind Padraic's Choice at Downpatrick but don't see him reversing those placings.

Beaten 25l in a 2m1f Ballinrobe handicap on recent chase debut.

(9) Padraic's Choice 12/1, Has largely struggled to make an impact but given a big chance by the handicapper, he took full advantage to make winning return from 8 months off at Downpatrick (19.2f) 31 days ago, going with plenty of zest and jumping well. Task here is to back that up.
Easy Downpatrick winner but may need good ground to show his best form.

Front-runner who has hung around to make the frame in his last two chases.

Winning hurdler; his form has gone cold of late and his chase form is uninspiring.

At least completed at Ballinrobe but that 4th was fairly remote and this looks no easier.

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

The progressive CAVE COURT is officially 6lb well in and is difficult to oppose as he bids for his fourth success in a row. Upped 13lb for winning at Listowel last week, the Noel Kelly-trained six-year-old will carry a 7lb winners penalty. His cause is further aided by the 7lb claim of Oran McGill. An easy winner at Killarney on his penultimate start, General Clermont is given second preference. He failed to make an impact when attempting to follow-up at Listowel last week and switching to fences now, an improved performance can be expected. Barbaha Queen has a good record at Clonmel and might be able to make an impact with Danny Mullins aboard. Downpatrick winner Padraic's Choice, admirable veteran Seskin Flyer and Ballinrobe runner-up Itsalonglongroad are others for the shortlist.

A dual winner over hurdles, CAVE COURT marked himself down as one to keep firmly on side when opening his chase account with plenty to spare at Listowel 6 days ago and, with his rider's claim off-setting his penalty, he can complete the 4-timer. Padraic's Choice cashed in off a basement mark on return at Downpatrick in August and a repeat gives him a shout. Itsalonglongroad should also be in the mix.

This should be at the mercy of CAVE COURT, who continued his good recent work back over fences last week at Listowel.

JET SETTING JIM might be able to reverse Listowel form with Noble Talent. The pair were second and fourth behind Chosen Templar at the Co Kerry venue last week, with the selection coming in for plenty of market support. Settled towards rear, the Jet Away gelding was probably given too much to do and while he made good late progress, he ultimately couldn't reel in the principals. Noble Talent didn't go unsupported at the Harvest festival and it'll come as no surprise if he manages to go a place better. Placed three times from three starts, Royal Hollow is another leading contender. She finished well ahead of Chosen Templar at Killarney on her most recent outing and with Adam Ryan claiming a valuable 7lb, she is sure to go close. Wisteria Bloom and Barton Snow both warrant respect, while newcomer Ebony Jade is an interesting contender with Patrick Mullins a significant jockey booking. The Kalanisi bay is a half-brother to Mias Storm, a classy eight-time winner in the UK.

ROYAL HOLLOW travelled with purpose again when runner-up at Killarney a month ago and this looks an ideal opportunity for her to open her account unless Ebony Jade proves to be an above-average newcomer. Wisteria Bloom is another player if tuned up back from a year off.

The mare ROYAL HOLLOW bumped into a smart prospect last time at Killarney and this looks easier.

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.
