LTO Selection:

16:15 Cork Maiden 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Perhaps the three to focus on are BRILLIANT, Mysteries and Zelosa who all hold the same Group 2 entry for the Curragh next month. Aidan O'Brien takes the wraps off Brilliant who made 650,000 guineas at the Sales. She is related to multiple Group 1-winner Alcohol Free and looks to be one of the main protagonists here. Mysteries ran on well for third on debut over this trip in the Curragh. That experience will be a big help to her and improvement should be forthcoming. Sheila Lavery introduces Zelosa and it is reasonable to assume that she is showing up well on the gallops to have that Group 2 entry. West Of Wichita showed ability on her first start over 5f at this track. Moral Turpitude has shown dash on both starts. Johnny Murtagh's Nakota is another newcomer to note.

MYSTERIES was strong in the betting and showed plenty to work on when third in a 9-runner Curragh maiden (6f) 3 weeks ago, noted doing her best work at the finish. Sure to improve, she gets the nod to build on that and come out on top. Newcomer Brilliant makes plenty of appeal on paper for her powerful stable and she's also one to note. West of Wichita, returned to calmer waters, completes the shortlist.

Curragh third MYSTERIES is taken to make the most of an experience edge over fellow Group 2 entrants Brilliant and Zelosa

LTO Selection:

16:50 Cork Maiden 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

SON OF SAMPERS showed improvement when beaten a neck into second over the same trip in Tipperary, so he is a big player here. Andrew Slattery holds a strong hand as he runs both On Our Radar and Blue News. There could be more to come from On Our Radar who has posted two runner-up finishes on the Polytrack in Dundalk. This is his turf debut. Blue News has plenty of experience to call upon with six placed efforts from 12 appearances. Eurielle was a market springer on debut at Limerick, but came home sixth. She could improve for better ground. Smullen's Pride is coming off a break, but has pace in her armoury. Jacks Gold is a nicely-bred sort and his trainer is well able to saddle a winning sprinter.

SON OF SAMPERS ran his best race when runner-up at Tipperary 17 days ago and a reproduction of that form could be good enough to see him go one better here. Smullen's Pride lacks a recent run but will be suited by a return to the minimum trip, while Blue News seems sure to be on the premises again

Both On Our Radar and Son Of Sampers are noted but SMULLEN'S PRIDE, who ran well on debut last term, can strike first time out

LTO Selection:

17:25 Cork Handicap 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A very competitive race. PARTING GLASS is certainly going the right way. He got off the mark in Navan last month after beginning his career with a couple of second places. This ground is an unknown for him, but it isn't a negative for progeny of his sire. Colin Keane has been booked. Not Too Real Bad is on a handy weight with Siobhan Rutledge's 5lb claim factored in. Furthermore, she won over C&D on her penultimate start. Gabriella's Spirit was a comfortable winner on her Irish debut at Tipperary. She has plenty of form in Britain as well. Natalia Lupini gets the most out of her horses and Running Cool is a threat after obliging over 6f in Fairyhouse at the start of the month. The veteran Primo Uomo is still showing speed and has moved to Darren Bunyan after the retirement of his trainer Ger O'Leary.

GABRIELLA'S SPIRIT left her British form trailing in her wake when a ready winner at Tipperary a fortnight ago and with the prospect of more to come, she could be the answer. Parting Glass retains potential as a handicapper, with Greek Flower another to note back in a more suitable grade.

Several in the mix but C&D winner NOT TOO REAL BAD wasn't seen to best effect last time and has more to offer from her mark

LTO Selection:

18:00 Cork Listed 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

GO ATHLETICO is an eye-catching recruit for Ado McGuinness. This five-year-old French gelding won eight times in his native country including when last seen in Listed company in April. His mark entitles him to maximum respect. Ano Syra couldn't land a glove in third on the winner at the Curragh in May, however, that was in Group 2 company and it was her first run back. Last season's Rockingham winner has the attributes for this fast 5f. Catherine Of Siena stayed on to get to within a neck of the winner in Listed class at Chelmsford City in April which brings her into the equation. Lady Tilbury is well versed at running in quality sprints. Anthem National came in fifth in good races at Naas and the Curragh last month, and has a role to play.

GO ATHLETICO looks the class act and is taken to make a successful start for Ado McGuinness before having his sights raised. Ano Syra is dangerous, while Catherine of Siena seems likely to go well again and is in the mix.

Not a strong Listed and a chance for ANO SYRA (nap), who's been running well behind some smart British speedsters, to gain a stakes win

(3) Cairde Go Deo 12/1, Useful filly. 16/1 and tongue strap on for first time, 4½ lengths seventh of 9 to Yashin in Saval Beg Levmoss Stakes at Leopardstown (14f, good) 28 days ago. That was a sound return to action and slight drop in trip will suit.
Back to probably her best trip and definite claims on the best of her form; ground to suit.
LTO Selection:

18:35 Cork Group 3 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Paddy Twomey's ROSSCARBERY won this race last year and may repeat the feat. She has to give weight away to the field which will take a bit of doing, but her class will help. The form of her fifth place in a Group 1 at Ascot last October is working out very well. The winner has since landed the Group 1 Coronation Cup while the third reappeared this season to win a Group 3 in the Curragh. The horse a place behind Rosscarbery in sixth has been successful in a Group 3 and in a Listed race. Rosscarbery has won off a break before. Twomey also saddles Final Gesture who was impressive in taking a Listed race by five lengths in Gowran Park last month. That was her Irish debut after winning twice in France. She has the race-fitness advantage on her stablemate. This trip, better ground and first-time blinkers could elicit a big run from Library. Her dam actually won this race in 2015. Azazat was very good in Leopardstown and will welcome the forecast rain. None of the remainder can be ruled out with confidence.

ROSSCARBERY must concede weight all round but she's already proven at this level, winning this race a year ago and sure to be well prepared for this reappearance given the yard she represents, she's likely up to the challenge. Stablemate Final Gesture created an excellent impression at Gowran and she's feared, with Azazat open to any amount of progress.

Paddy Twomey holds a very strong hand and last year's winner ROSSCARBERY gets the nod over Final Gesture

Poor comeback run and veteran can only be watched for now.
LTO Selection:

19:10 Cork Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

GOLDEN TWILIGHT has claims over this trip. He travelled notably well before dropping to third over 1m6f at the Curragh last month. He certainly knows where the winning post is with five career victories, including three over this distance. First-time cheekpieces are applied. Star Kissed has two wins and two close second places among her five races to date. She is still growing into her frame, but should be deeply involved. Morph Speed was only caught close home over slightly further in Leopardstown which gives him claims. The handicapper has dropped Safecracker by 3lb. He was only 1lb lower when runner-up in a premier handicap at the Curragh last September. Spasiba is entitled to come on from an unplaced comeback run at Killarney. A combination of a tongue-strap and cheekpieces go on. Pralognan and Rich Belief are others to consider.

STAR KISSED was quick to resume progress on her second start in handicaps when running out a ready winner at Roscommon 15 days ago and a 5 lb higher mark shouldn't prevent another bold bid with the prospect of more to come. Last year's runner-up Safecracker is a threat from an easing mark, with Spasiba, Morph Speed and Pralognan others also worthy of note.

Preference is for the improving filly STAR KISSED, who could still be ahead of the handicapper

LTO Selection:

19:45 Cork Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

GOLDEN DAYS has each-way claims in this massive field. There was plenty to like about her seasonal reappearance fourth over an extended 7f in Roscommon last month. She was beaten less than a length at the finish and there could be improvement to come particularly as she has a C&D success in the book. It was Swiss Army Officer who won that aforementioned race in Roscommon and he has an obvious chance. He wasn't at his best on his last start in Listowel but, afterwards, his jockey reported that he had to check off heels. Markievicz won in this grade on her penultimate start in Navan and is eminently capable of getting in the mix. Rockbury Lad and Mass Gathering will be eyeing prize money.

ROCKBURY LAD has shaped well on both his starts this year and can defy his current mark granted a bit of luck in running in this big field. Markievicz had an excuse last time and is better judged on her Navan success. Golden Days completes the shortlist.

After a promising recent comeback run, previous C&D winner GOLDEN DAYS gets the vote

20:15 Cork Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The handicapper has eased GEGENPRESSING by 3lb which enables him to drop into the basement grade, and he could do some damage. He has performed creditably in higher grades at Leopardstown, Naas and the Curragh this season. Catherine Chroi wouldn't be winning out of turn. She has been placed on her last three starts and, on each occasion, has been keeping on over shorter trips. She has a 7f success at Dundalk in the book. Well Suited had victory snatched from him in the latter stages at Listowel. That effort bodes well for a big run here. Florence Thompson is a long-standing maiden, but isn't without a chance. After a long period competing on the Polytrack in Dundalk, she raced prominently in Fairyhouse before being caught close home. She has actually been placed on her last six visits to this track. Sondheim could be in there pitching in first-time blinkers. He won this race last year.

GEGENPRESSING ran his best race of the season when fourth in a big field at the Curragh 9 days ago and looks ready to strike now dipped below his last winning mark. Well Suited and Catherine Chroi head the dangers.

Having flown home at Fairyhouse CATHERINE CHROI can reverse form with Florence Thompson and It Might Be You over this trip

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.
