LTO Selection:

16:29 Cork Maiden 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Galileo filly GRATEFUL is out of Breeders' Cup Mile and six-time top-level winner Tepin, and was very green on debut. She was never in contention at the Curragh but if she breaks well and races with the pace, is likely to improve dramatically. Camelot Alexander, out of a Group 3 winner, ran well on debut at Tipperary and while well held by the winner, holds experienced 84-rated Glor Tire on that form. Settlement showed ability when leading on her Curragh introduction, but her trainer's stable jockey rides at Gowran, while Masaiya needs to improve from her Leopardstown debut and runs in a first-time tongue-tie. Foxtrot Zulu is a half-sister to pacey Group 1 and Group 3 winners, but it is a possible negative that she debuts over a mile as a juvenile. There are capable winners in Unreasonable's pedigree.

A host in with chances and it could be worth taking a punt on newcomer FOXTROT ZULU, who fetched a mouth-watering 450,000 gns as a yearling and confidence would only heighten should market support arrive. Settlement showed plenty of ability when fourth at the Curragh on debut recently, so she could be the one to give the selection most to think about, with Camelot Alexander and Grateful another pair fancied to be bang there.

The one to be on looks to be SETTLEMENT who ran a very nice race at the Curragh despite things not going her way

LTO Selection:

17:04 Cork Maiden 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

THE FIRST AND LAST has had a light campaign this summer, but his C&D short-head defeat in April was useful. He faces a slightly lesser task than when finishing fifth at Leopardstown last month, which was also his first run for 52 days. Muhaarar's Girl is suited by this distance and while she appears limited, a return to drier ground could help. Highland Rahy was well behind the selection here last April, but has shown much better form since and has place claims. Ninth Life ran OK over C&D in May and returns from a mini-break, while Lord Vader, second in a Naas charity race recently, needs to improve and runs in first-time cheekpieces. Vera's Secret is a half-sister to an 11-time winner but makes a belated debut aged four.

THE FIRST AND LAST should be suited by the drop back in trip here and can open his account at the fifth attempt. Highland Rahy and Muhaarar's Girl rate the principal dangers.

The standard is set by THE FIRST AND LAST due to narrow defeats at Cork and Ballinrobe and he might be good enough

Good late work in a Bellewstown maiden and the extra furlong will suit; plenty more needed.

(1) McTenett 3.2/1, Confirmed debut promise when off the mark in 11-runner maiden at Naas (5.9f, good, 9/4) 10 days ago, driven clear. More to come and seems likely to feature again.
Should be capable of better but tough ask at the weights, even with a top 7lb claimer on.

Bodyguard

12/1(+33%)

Stoutly bred newcomer on the distaff side so interesting to see him debut over this trip.
LTO Selection:

17:39 Cork Stakes 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

KING CUAN met significant trouble in running on debut and is clearly capable. The form of that Curragh maiden has worked out very well, with the winner and fifth-placed horses each winning subsequently, while the runner-up was later fifth in the Phoenix Stakes. He conceded weight to those rivals but today receives 9lb from principal opponent McTenett, a maiden winner recently. McTenett himself conceded weight in winning at Naas, but faces a tougher task now aiming to do the same to the selection. Bodyguard, a 30,000-euro yearling, is by a sprinting stallion and could be useful, while Sovereign City has place claims. Pipsy is out of an unraced half-sister to a French Group 2 winner but debuts in a first-time tongue-tie.

KING CUAN was a warm order for his debut and shaped with a good deal of promise when fourth at the Curragh, so he's a confident choice to open his account at the second attempt. McTenett, the only previous winner in the field, looks the obvious danger and Pipsy is the most interesting newcomer.

Unlucky on debut at the Curragh in May, KING CUAN looks one to be on the right side of and can land this

5/1(+23%)
(14) Linger For Longer 5/1, 10/1, career best when winning 16-runner handicap at this C&D (good) 40 days ago, responding well. Likely to be on the premises again.
Got his head in front at the 19th attempt in a C&D handicap in late July; only up 4lb.
LTO Selection:

18:10 Cork Handicap 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

WAVE MACHINE is in form, ground-versatile and suited by this distance. Winner of November's Birdcatcher Nursery, she has done well in recent months and is now 4lb lower than when second at Naas last month, with today's rider again claiming 7lb. Polar Bear finished half a length ahead of Tamazu at Bellewstown and the pair meet on similar terms. However, Polar Bear might prefer slightly easier ground, while Tamazu's best form is over five furlongs. Linger For Longer steps up in grade from a recent C&D triumph and while 4lb higher, that is more than offset by her 5lb claimer. Collective Power has been running well under a 7lb claimer recently and is suited by this distance and drying ground.

WAVE MACHINE is handicapped to win and took a step back in the right direction when runner-up at Naas a month ago, so she's worth a chance to go one better for an in-form stable. Linger For Longer and Polar Bear arrive at the top of their game and are also expected to be involved.

The selection is WAVE MACHINE(nap) after three solid efforts on his last three runs and has been given a real chance by the handicapper

LTO Selection:

18:40 Cork Maiden 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

RAGGA BOMB was one of just two newcomers to debut in a valuable sales race at Naas last month, but he performed with promise and beat some capable rivals. Slowly away before finishing well, he should progress and will also be better suited by a sounder surface. Carnegie Hall is consistent and experienced, but is vulnerable to progressive types. His course neck defeat by subsequent Listed winner Asean reads very well but he failed to build on that run, although he may have been unsuited by 7f at the Curragh last time. Take Me To Church was a notable 38,000-euro breeze-up purchase in May and could finish third, while Dabirsim Flyer and Wrestling Revenue have ability but need to improve.

RAGGA BOMB acquitted himself well when a staying-on eighth of 20 in a sales race at Naas on debut and, in calmer waters, he can find the requisite improvement to get the better of Carnegie Hall, who sets the standard but is more exposed. Wrestling Revenue is the pick of the remainder.

Having seemingly failed to stay 7f last time, CARNEGIE HALL can get off the mark with a repeat of some of his better earlier runs.

LTO Selection:

19:10 Cork Stakes 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

QUEEN OF THUNDER caught the eye when slowly away on debut and should better today's unofficial 80 perch. That Curragh introduction was confined to newcomers and while initially asleep in the stalls, she showed ability to get involved. She has notable big-race entries and has a fine pedigree. Dandy Lichious is 3lb wrong at these weights and while 7lb-claimer ridden when running well at the Curragh recently, seems progressive and is suited by good ground and this distance. Maiden winner The Caribbean races in blinkers, has been well held in two stakes races and tries this trip for the first time. Perfect Judgement also steps up to 7f, has run two consistent races and can get involved. Miss Black Jack did really well to finish fourth, having almost jumped a railing mid-race, at Fairyhouse in June but was well held here subsequently, although steps up a furlong. Uncle Albert is 11lb wrong but his rider claims 5lb and he bumped into a subsequent winner at Sligo last month.

There should be more to come from PERFECT JUDGEMENT, who was strong in the market when a good fourth at the Curragh last month. He gets the nod. Queen of Thunder may provide the chief threat.

Having run with promise despite showing her inexperience on debut at the Curragh, QUEEN OF THUNDER could improve enough to score

Rose Of Malta

10
10/1(+64%)
(11) Rose Of Malta 10/1, Maiden who stepped up a little on her reappearance effort when eighth of 18 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 11/1) 7 days ago. Not taken lightly with her mark easing all the time.
Beaten 5l on the round course here last time and down 5lb; needs her best.

Amemri

25/1(+38%)
(18) Amemri 25/1, Latest win at Limerick in June. Sixth of 7 in handicap (13/2) at Ffos Las (7.4f, heavy) 29 days ago. Return to less testing ground could well help now.
Consistent enough but disappointed on heavy ground at Ffos Las last time; not ruled out.

Will Be King

80/1(+0%)
(24) Will Be King 80/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. Fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft, 80/1) 39 days ago, racing off the pace and never a threat.
Well beaten on return in soft ground and this will suit better but work to do.
8
7th (8) Ferrybank (8/1 +60%)
Ferrybank

8
8/1(+60%)
(8) Ferrybank 8/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2021. Seventh of 11 in handicap (4/1) at Leopardstown (7f, good) 13 days ago, doing too much too soon.
Had been running well enough in defeat but was below that level at Leopardstown last time.

25/1(-14%)
(20) Catherine Chroi 25/1, Sixteenth of 24 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, soft, 11/1) 30 days ago, driven soon after halfway and making no impression. Back up in trip now.
Dropping down the handicap but needs more on recent efforts.

Gurkha Girl

18
18/1(+10%)
(3) Gurkha Girl 18/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good neck second of 17 to Trueba in handicap (40/1) at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Merits consideration.
Just denied over this trip on the round course a week ago; looks likely to go well.
26
10th (26) Miss Slovakia (25/1 +11%)
Miss Slovakia

25
25/1(+11%)
(26) Miss Slovakia 25/1, 9/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (7f, soft) 39 days ago, possibly unsuited by the softer conditions. Previous Fairyhouse second wasn't devoid of promise and she may yet have more to offer.
Return to a sound surface can help, so can't be ruled out with a tongue-tie added.
14
11th (14) Tall Story (25/1 +38%)
Tall Story

25
25/1(+38%)
(14) Tall Story 25/1, Remains a maiden after 27 Flat runs. Eighth of 10 in claimer (25/1) at Ballinrobe (9.4f, good to soft) 44 days ago. Back down in trip. Cheekpieces back on.
Maiden after 28 starts is difficult to fancy on recent form.

Golden Warrior

80
80/1(-60%)
(5) Golden Warrior 80/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. Last of 15 in handicap (50/1) at Killarney (8.1f, good) 13 days ago, slowly away. Visor on 1st time.
Has been beaten a long way on last two starts and the visor needs to work.
28
13th (28) Famous Enough (25/1 -14%)
Famous Enough

25
25/1(-14%)
(28) Famous Enough 25/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, ninth of 14 in handicap (16/1) at Roscommon (7.2f, good to soft) 2 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. RESERVE.
Has run well enough at times in handicaps and of minor interest; reserve.
19
14th (19) Badinage (33/1 +50%)

33
33/1(+50%)
(19) Badinage 33/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time, eleventh of 16 in handicap (22/1) at Fairyhouse (7f, good) 56 days ago. Difficult ask.

15th (25) Saoirses Lulaby (80/1 -60%)
Saoirses Lulaby

80
80/1(-60%)
(25) Saoirses Lulaby 80/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 7 in maiden at Roscommon (7.4f, good to soft, 125/1) 15 days ago. More needed if she's to make an impact now handicapping.
Well beaten in three maidens but is worth a market check on handicap debut.
12
16th (12) Cherry Bloom (16/1 -14%)
Cherry Bloom

16
16/1(-14%)
(12) Cherry Bloom 16/1, Latest win at Fairyhouse (6f) in June. Creditable seventh of 24 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good, 50/1) 10 days ago (second home in group).
Won over 6f at Fairyhouse and not a bad run over that trip at Naas last time.
21

Cuala Bula

33
33/1(+34%)
(21) Cuala Bula 33/1, 25/1, seventh of 18 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago, every chance under 2f out and fading. Eased another 5 lb ahead of this.
Maiden has run respectably in defeat at times this year, including here; dropped 5lb.

18th (2) Sondheim (10/1 +0%)
Sondheim

10/1(+0%)
(2) Sondheim 10/1, C&D winner. 12/1, thirteenth of 19 in handicap at the Curragh (8f, good to soft) 17 days ago, doing too much too soon. Had been knocking on the door previously, including over this C&D and no surprise to see a better showing.

Maid To Shine

28
28/1(-12%)
(6) Maid To Shine 28/1, Winner at Dundalk in February. 22/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Tipperary (7.4f, good) 63 days ago, never better than midfield. Needs to step up on recent efforts to figure.
Dundalk maiden winner in February has generally been below that level since.
4
20th (4) Trueba (16/1 -191%)
Trueba

16
16/1(-191%)
(4) Trueba 16/1, 9/2, won 17-runner handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago by neck from Gurkha Girl, driven out. Remains with handicapping scope but he wouldn't be an obvious follow-up candidate.
Won over this trip on the round course a week ago; can run well off the same mark.
23
21st (23) Tijuana (66/1 +18%)
Tijuana

66
66/1(+18%)
(23) Tijuana 66/1, Respectable eleventh of 18 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 50/1) 7 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Has work to do.
Soundly beaten in maidens and handicaps, so doesn't make much appeal.
10
22nd (10) She's Local (9/1 -80%)
She's Local

9
9/1(-80%)
(10) She's Local 9/1, 10/1, good neck third of 17 to Trueba in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago, plenty to do entering straight and keeping on well. One to be interested in on the back of that.
Close third over this trip on the round course here a week ago; 2lb lower; chance.

23rd (9) Hope And Innocence (7/1 +0%)
Hope And Innocence

(9) Hope And Innocence 7/1, Creditable length sixth of 17 to Trueba in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 6/1) 7 days ago. Trainer going well. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Likely to continue in form.
Behind some of these rivals on the round course a week ago and has a squeak off 3lb lower.

24th (16) Brookie Cookie (33/1 +18%)
Brookie Cookie

33
33/1(+18%)
(16) Brookie Cookie 33/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 10/3, creditable fourth of 13 in handicap at Redcar (8f, good to firm) 25 days ago, no extra final 100 yds. Possible she can build on that effort dropped to 7f here.
Ran well enough on handicap debut over 1m at Redcar last time, weakened late on.
7
25th (7) Angel's Feather (7/1 +0%)
Angel's Feather

7
7/1(+0%)
(7) Angel's Feather 7/1, 10/1, respectable sixth of 18 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 7 days ago, never nearer. Appeals as being on a workable mark and less exposed than most she meets here. Not dismissed.
Best run was when 2nd over C&D in May; should have improved from run back here last time.
LTO Selection:

19:40 Cork Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Seven of these contested two divisions of a C&D handicap last week and HOPE AND INNOCENCE, drawn on the stands side, might prove best in first-time cheekpieces. Nicely bred, she finished her race strongly behind Trueba and might turn the form around, with Wesley Joyce now claiming 7lb. Trueba's 3lb penalty for winning has been eroded by the handicapper's decision to drop all horses, for inflationary reasons, that same weight in recent days. He beat Gurkha Girl (second) and She's Local (third) last week and each has claims, although the selection might have an ounce more in hand. Von Krolock finished second in last week's other divide (Angel's Feather was sixth and Rose Of Malta was eighth) and while he is a 13-race maiden, has a stands-side draw and is now ridden by a 7lb claimer. Han Solo's best form is over a mile but he ran well at Killarney in July, while Ferrybank will appreciate drying ground. Goldmoyne's jockey reported he hung right on a bend at Leopardstown last month.

SHE'S LOCAL remains a maiden but was deserving of plenty of credit for coming from as far back as she did when third behind Trueba over C&D 7 days ago and she could just be worth chancing to reverse those placings and open her account. Angel's Feather remains less exposed than most and she's another to consider. Aforementioned Trueba and Gurkha Girl complete the shortlist.

Maybe ANGEL'S FEATHER could improve enough from her run on the round course here last time to score.

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.
