(3)  (6/1 +50%)Hill Road |
6/1(+50%) |  | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Hill Road 6/1, Foaled April 5. $350,000 yearling, Quality Road colt. Dam, Argentinian 7f-1¼m winner, half-sister to top-class US 6f-9f winner City of Light (by Quality Road), won Breeders' Cup Turf Mile. Likely type on paper. Quality Road colt, $350,000 yearling, strong American pedigree, won Naas barrier trial. |

1st (4)  (6/4 +14%)Hotazhell |
6/4(+14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Hotazhell 6/4, Well-backed 5/2, fourth of 10 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) on debut 19 days ago, finishing with running left after not clear run from 2f out. Looks the type that will improve significantly, so he's high on the shortlist. Looked unlucky when getting no run in the straight on debut at Leopardstown, strong chance. |
|||
2nd (5)  (28/1 -12%)Mount Parnassus |
28/1(-12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mount Parnassus 28/1, 4/1, went backwards from debut when twelfth of 15 in maiden at this course (6f, soft) 30 days ago, not ideally drawn. Blinkered for 1st time. Should still have more to offer. Could make little impact when well supported on second start; blinkered first time now. |
|||
3rd (8)  (7/2 -27%)Swagman |
7/2(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Swagman 7/2, Foaled April 10. €170,000 yearling, Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to useful 11f/1½m winner Santorini. Dam unraced half-sister to smart winner up to 1½m Plumania. Warrants considerable respect. Out of an unraced half-sister to 1m4f Group 1 winner Plumania, has to be taken seriously. |
|||
4th (10)  (11/4 +39%)Yamal |
11/4(+39%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Yamal 11/4, Promising type. 4/1, shaped encouragingly when third of 10 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) on debut 19 days ago. Should improve. Promising third on debut, not guaranteed to uphold form with Hotazhell who looked unlucky. |
|||
5th (2)  (16/1 -33%)Drivers Seat |
16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Drivers Seat 16/1, Foaled March 17. €80,000 yearling, Sea The Stars colt. Dam, maiden (stayed 9.5f), half-sister to high-class 1¼m-1¾m (St Leger) winner Sixties Icon out of very smart 1¼m-1½m winner Love Divine. Dam is a half-sister to St Leger winner Sixties Icon, bred to do well at beyond 1m. |
|||
6th (7)  (18/1 -29%)Rhodreego |
18/1(-29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Rhodreego 18/1, 14/1, showed good speed when fifth of 11 in maiden at this course (6f, good) on debut 11 days ago. Likely to improve. Made pleasing introduction when fifth behind the promising Henri Matisse here 11 days ago. |
|||
7th (6)  (28/1 +15%)Native Honey |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Native Honey 28/1, Ran to a similar level as on debut when eighth of 11 in maiden at this course (6f, good, 16/1) 11 days ago. Faded in the last half furlong after a prominent showing in a 6f maiden here 11 days ago. |
|||
8th (1)  (100/1 -52%)Dance For Chester |
100/1(-52%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Dance For Chester 100/1, Foaled March 26. €10,500 yearling, Ribchester colt. Brother to winner up to 6f Bid For Chester, and half-brother to 1m winner Grilo and 7f-1¼m winner Bertie's Wish. Dam 2-y-o 7.4f winner who stayed 1¼m. Brother to yard's dual sprint winner Bid For Chester, 7f trip could be an issue on debut. |
|||
9th (9)  (25/1 +0%)Tilani |
25/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Tilani 25/1, Foaled February 26. Belardo colt. Dam unraced half-sister to 1m-1¼m winner Tinandali and 1¼m-1½m winner Tregony (both smart) out of useful winner around 1¼m winner (stayed 1½m) Timarwa. Dam an unraced half-sister to several useful winners, solid middle-distance. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HOTAZHELL was an eye-catcher when fourth on debut in a hot maiden at Leopardstown last month. He was unable to get racing room in the straight, so his performance can certainly be marked up. Yamal picked up well to finish a place in front of him and is a big player. Hill Road landed a Naas barrier trial and his stable does well with juveniles, while Aidan O'Brien's newcomer Swagman is an obvious threat. Mount Parnassus is a potential improver up in trip, sporting first-time blinkers and on better ground, while Joseph O'Brien's Sea The Stars colt Drivers Seat is another interesting debutant.
A maiden that looks sure to throw up plenty of winners and it's HOTAZHELL who gets the vote having finished with running left when sent off favourite on debut at Leopardstown last month. Yamal was third (a place in front of the selection) that day, and he may well emerge as the main danger, with Swagman and Hill Road a couple of notable debutants, too.
The key to this is a Leopardstown race in which favourite HOTAZHELL failed to get a clear run. He can reverse form with Yamal

(4)  (10/1 +9%)This Ain't Texas |
10/1(+9%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) This Ain't Texas 10/1, Promising individual. 33/1, fourth of 5 in minor event at Naas (5f, good to firm) on debut 17 days ago, making steady headway halfway before fading last ½f. Very much the type to improve. Outsider of five when fourth in a 5f conditions event at Naas, extra furlong should help. |
|||
1st (5)  (1/2 +32%)Tunbridge Wells |
1/2(+32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Tunbridge Wells 1/2, Brother to smart 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Blackbeard and looked a good prospect himself when second of 8 in maiden at Navan (5.8f, good, 7/4) on debut 18 days ago, best work finish and clear of rest. Sort to improve markedly and he rates the one to side with here. Good debut at Naas, that experience may now give him a vital edge over the newcomers. |
|||
2nd (8)  (22/1 +12%)Mighty Eriu |
22/1(+12%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Mighty Eriu 22/1, Foaled April 19. €30,000 foal, €16,000 yearling, Inns of Court filly. Sister to 7f winner Inner Temple, closely related to 7f winner Poppy Carrew and half-sister to 7f winner Written Broadcast. Dam maiden (stayed 7f), closely related to smart 2-y-o 5f/5.5f winner Signora Cabello. Filly has a decent pedigree but may find this company too demanding on debut. |
|||
3rd (7)  (9/1 -38%)Girl Like You |
9/1(-38%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Girl Like You 9/1, Foaled April 16. American Pharoah filly. Dam, US 8.5f winner (minor stakes and also at 2 yrs), runner-up in Grade 2 9f event at 2 yrs. Makes appeal on paper and holds a Group 2 entry so she's well worth a second look. American Pharoah filly, dam US turf 2yo/dirt stakes winner, merits respect. |
|||
4th (6)  (11/2 -57%)Zambales |
11/2(-57%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Zambales 11/2, Foaled March 15. Pinatubo colt. Dam, 2-y-o 7f winner who stayed 10.5f, half-sister to smart winner up to 9f Pocket Square. Yard no stranger to success with their juveniles and one to monitor closely in the betting for positive vibes. Pinatubo colt; first foal out of a Group-placed 7f AW juvenile winner, interesting sort. |
|||
5th (1)  (40/1 -21%)Besiege |
40/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Besiege 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Fifth of 9 in maiden at Tipperary (7.1f, soft, 25/1) 7 days ago, no extra final 100 yds. Pick of his efforts to date have come on AW and others rate stronger. Placed at Dundlak, his experience should be an asset but he looks vulnerable. |
|||
6th (3)  (14/1 +30%)Sea Fort |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Sea Fort 14/1, Siyouni colt. Brother to 1m winner Siyouking and half-brother to 2 winners, including 7f-1¼m winner Perfect Balance. 33/1, showed a bit when ninth of 11 in maiden at this C&D (good) on debut 11 days ago, keeping on when meeting some trouble final 1f. Ought to do better at some stage. Met some trouble in running on debut over C&D 11 days ago, that looked a strong maiden. |
|||
7th (2)  (22/1 -10%)Karazhal |
22/1(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Karazhal 22/1, Foaled February 10. Profitable colt. Half-brother to 10.7f winner Kalaroun and 6f winner Karakoul. Dam useful 1¼m winner. Market should prove a useful guide on debut. Third foal, half-brother to winners Karakoul and Kalaroun; dam 1m2f winner. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TUNBRIDGE WELLS ought to reap the benefit of a runner-up effort on debut at Navan. He was outgunned by a smart sort, but finished nicely clear of the remainder and holds a Group 2 entry at the end of the month. Joseph O'Brien unleashes American Pharoah filly Girl Like You, who has to be taken seriously particularly with the entries she holds. Ger Lyons saddled plenty of winners in May and he takes the wraps off Zambales, who should be checked for market strength. This Ain't Texas was highly tried on debut at Naas and wasn't outclassed in fourth, while there are winners in newcomer Mighty Eriu's pedigree.
TUNBRIDGE WELLS is bred to be smart and produced a very promising first effort when second in a Navan maiden (5.8f) 18 days ago. The type to improve markedly, he looks to hold sound claims of going one place better with that under his belt. This Ain't Texas is another likely improver with his debut run behind him and is feared. Zambales and Girl Like You are a couple of the newcomers to note.
No previous winners here and a good opportunity for TUNBRIDGE WELLS to step up a place from an initial run at Naas

(3)  (33/1 -136%)Comic Book |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Comic Book 33/1, Twice-raced filly. Sixth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (10f, good to firm, 16/1) 24 days ago. Stable having good spell but more is required. Expensive yearling has been well held in Leopardstown maidens, most recently over 1m2f. |
|||
1st (4)  (6/1 +63%)Grateful |
6/1(+63%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Grateful 6/1, Once-raced filly. 10/1, ninth of 11 in minor event at this course (7f, good) on debut, not knocked about. Off 9 months. Significantly up in trip. Yard having good spell. Should progress. Green but did some late work in high-class winners' event here last summer; off 10 months. |
|||
2nd (6)  (5/6 +59%)Mother Nature |
5/6(+59%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Mother Nature 5/6, Promising Justify filly. 8/13, second of 12 in maiden at Dundalk (10.7f) on debut 61 days ago. Can improve. Leading form claims. Odds-on favourite for AW debut, touched off by a rival now rated 90; hard to oppose. |
|||
3rd (11)  (66/1 -230%)Yes Oui Si |
66/1(-230%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Yes Oui Si 66/1, Twice-raced filly. 14/1, sixth of 9 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, heavy) 43 days ago. Up in trip. Not shamed on Gowran return when beaten 5l but yard second-string is hard to fancy. |
|||
4th (8)  (15/2 -7%)Ob La Di |
15/2(-7%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ob La Di 15/2, Twice-raced filly. 7/2, fair fourth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (10f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Stable having good spell so she's one for the shortlist. Respectable runs in 1m2f Leopardstown maidens and step up in trip should suit. |
|||
5th (2)  (4/1 -20%)Alinta |
4/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Alinta 4/1, Australia filly. Half-sister to 7f winner Like A Lion. Dam 2-y-o 7f (Moyglare Stud Stakes) winner who stayed 1m. Trainer’s newcomers command respect. Half-sister to 7f winner Like A Lion (inc AW/2yo; RPR 82); dam was Group 1 winner at two. |
|||
6th (5)  (16/1 -60%)Inspire Hope |
16/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Inspire Hope 16/1, €36,000 yearling, Camelot filly. Half-sister to 3 winners, including very smart 1¼m-1½m winner Harlem and 1m winner Summit Reach. Dam winner up to 1½m (2-y-o 7f winner). Yard in good form so a considered newcomer. Half-sister to Group 1 winner cost E36,000 as a yearling; no fancy entries. |
|||
7th (9)  (66/1 -633%)Saol Gaelach |
66/1(-633%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Saol Gaelach 66/1, €180,000 foal, Waldgeist filly. Half-sister to 1½m winner Illusory. Much respected debutante. Cost E180,000 as a foal and is from the family of Oaks/King George winner Taghrooda. |
|||
8th (7)  (125/1 -89%)Nosey Anna |
125/1(-89%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Nosey Anna 125/1, Once-raced filly. Twelfth of 15 in maiden at Roscommon (7.4f, good, 14/1) on debut 16 days ago, slowly away. Significantly up in trip. Out the back in claiming maiden at Roscommon; big step up in trip and makes no appeal. |
|||
9th (1)  (80/1 +20%)I'm Flattered |
80/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) I'm Flattered 80/1, Making GB/IRE Flat debut. Twelfth of 14 in bumper at Naas (16f, soft, 22/1) on NH debut 145 days ago. Off 145 days. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Tailed off in Naas bumper in January; best watched; tongue-tie. |
|||

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Aidan O'Brien's MOTHER NATURE lost out by a short head on her first outing on the Polytrack at Dundalk and can make a successful transition to turf. She holds a Group 3 and Irish Oaks entry, so should have a bright future. Paddy Twomey is well versed in taking the wraps off a horse to win on racecourse bow, so Australia filly Alinta has to be respected. O'Brien's Grateful should be a different proposition over this trip after finishing unplaced over 7f in a valuable race at this track last summer, and she is another with an Irish Oaks entry. Ob La Di isn't out of it either.
Aidan O'Brien looks to hold a strong hand and his well-bred Justify filly MOTHER NATURE is fancied to build on her promising debut Dundalk second and get off the mark. Stablemate Grateful also has better days ahead of her and is next on the list with Ob La Di and Saol Gaelach appealing as the pick of the rest for place purposes.
It will be a surprise if MOTHER NATURE, odds-on when touched off on debut at Dundalk, doesn't land this maiden

1st (6)  (4/1 +50%)Kendall Roy |
4/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Kendall Roy 4/1, 2 wins from 3 runs this year. Latest win at Thirsk in April. 11/8, good second of 6 in handicap at Cork (5f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Expected to be bang there. Winning run started from mark of 57; had Alpha Cephei a place behind when second at Cork. |
|||
2nd (1)  (9/1 -64%)Majestic Beauty |
9/1(-64%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Majestic Beauty 9/1, First run since leaving Alice Haynes when bit below form 5½ lengths fourth of 13 to Cherry Blossom in listed race (15/2) at Cork (5.5f, good) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Good level of form in stakes races over 5f and has to be respected on handicap debut. |
|||
3rd (4)  (15/2 -25%)Goal Exceeded |
15/2(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Goal Exceeded 15/2, Lightly-raced winner. 15/8, below form sixth of 12 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, soft) 37 days ago. Plenty of promise on penultimate outing and he's not one to write off. His comeback fourth against older rivals at Cork was creditable but tame effort latest. |
|||
4th (9)  (80/1 -220%)Buddy Batt |
80/1(-220%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Buddy Batt 80/1, 33/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Navan (5f, good) 18 days ago. Others more persuasive. Bellewstown maiden winner last term but has been well held in handicap company. |
|||
5th (2)  (12/1 -20%)Power Mode |
12/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Power Mode 12/1, First run since leaving Alice Haynes when respectable 6¼ lengths eighth of 13 to Givemethebeatboys in listed race at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 40/1) 39 days ago, slowly away. Makes handicap debut with improvement to find. Debut winner over 6f but has been well held in stakes compnay since; blinkers fitted. |
|||
6th (8)  (8/1 +6%)Nikki Swango |
8/1(+6%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Nikki Swango 8/1, 14/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good) 25 days ago, running on. Can give another good account for all that others look better treated. Maiden win was over 6f but has the pace for 5f; not clearest of runs when fifth at Naas. |
|||
7th (11)  (40/1 -100%)Ringabella |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Ringabella 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Sixth of 8 in maiden (7/2) at Cork (6f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Makes handicap debut. Not ruled out with few miles on the clock. Some fair runs in maidens and blinkers now added but 3lb wrong for handicap debut. |
|||
8th (3)  (15/8 +25%)Air Force One |
15/8(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Air Force One 15/8, Promising type. First run since leaving David O'Meara and visored for 1st time, won 14-runner maiden (13/8) at Navan (5f, good to soft) 29 days ago, always holding on. Makes handicap debut with the scope for better still, so looks the one to beat. Beat a good yardstick on seasonal and stable debut at Navan; could be on a good mark. |
|||
9th (7)  (8/1 +27%)Alpha Cephei |
8/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Alpha Cephei 8/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 14/1, good third of 6 in handicap at Cork (5f, good to soft) 15 days ago, missing break. Should be better for that return and may yet be a bigger effort in him. Missed the break when a place behind Kendall Roy at Cork; should improve for that return. |
|||
10th (5)  (50/1 -127%)Bella Colombia |
50/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bella Colombia 50/1, Lightly-raced winner. Visored for 1st time, 10¼ lengths eleventh of 13 to Cherry Blossom in listed race at Cork (5.5f, good, 80/1) 26 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not easy to make a case for. Well beaten in stakes company since winning 6f AW maiden on debut; first run in handicap. |
|||
11th (10)  (40/1 -43%)Verified |
40/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Verified 40/1, Below form ninth of 17 in maiden at Navan (5f, good, 8/1) 18 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Not completely dismissed. Promising handicap debut at Naas but blew the start completely back in a maiden last time. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
NIKKI SWANGO didn't have the clearest of runs when fifth on seasonal debut at Naas and Natalia Lupini's filly can strike here on her second run in handicap company. The daughter of Galileo Gold has shown her best form over 6f but has enough early speed to cope with this drop back to the minimum distance, and Wayne Lordan has a good record for the stable. Kendall Roy's bid for a four-timer failed at Cork, but he had Alpha Cephei a place behind when finishing runner-up and is likely to be on the premises again. Majestic Beauty has good form in stakes company and has to be respected on handicap debut, as does Navan maiden winner Air Force One.
AIR FORCE ONE, an expensive yearling, took a marked step forward to make a winning debut for this stable in a first-time visor at Navan and he's open to further improvement, so he gets the nod ahead of Kendall Roy, who found only one too good at Cork recently. Goal Exceeded is another big player if he can get back on track.
Her maiden win was over 6f but she has the pace for this trip and NIKKI SWANGO shaped well on her return to action at Naas

6/4(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Saturn 6/4, Promising individual. 9/4 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 12 in handicap at this course (10f, good) 11 days ago.

3rd (1)  (6/1 +33%)Serious Challenge |
6/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Serious Challenge 6/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 6/1, respectable 4¼ lengths fourth of 8 to Countess of Tyrone in listed race at Down Royal (16f, good) 5 days ago. Has run well in stakes company last twice but winning off this mark might be beyond him. |
|||
4th (3)  (14/1 +0%)Star Harbour |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Star Harbour 14/1, Creditable fourth of 12 in handicap at this course (10f, good, 10/1) 11 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Looks competitive on form. Good run when fourth over 1m2f here last month but not sure to relish this trip. |
|||
5th (9)  (5/1 -43%)Reina Del Mar |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Reina Del Mar 5/1, 6/1 and tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Ed Walker when creditable fourth of 11 in handicap at Leopardstown (12f, good) 19 days ago, faring best of those held up. Likely to have more to offer for this yard. Three wins when trained in Britain and pleasing start for this yard at Leopardstown. |
|||
6th (4)  (18/1 -50%)Dame Rapide |
18/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Dame Rapide 18/1, C&D winner. 9/2, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap hurdle at Clonmel (16.2f, soft) 20 days ago. Useful on the Flat, poor on last Flat run. Others more persuasive. Dual C&D winner is only 3lb higher than when winning here just over a year ago. |
|||
7th (11)  (11/2 -10%)Fairytale Princess |
11/2(-10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Fairytale Princess 11/2, 1 win from 2 runs this year. 20/1, career best when winning 17-runner handicap at this C&D (soft) 10 days ago, having run of race. Yard in good form. Should continue to give a good account. Decisive C&D winner on Guineas weekend when trying trip for first time; 11lb higher now. |
|||
8th (8)  (16/1 -45%)Ceallach |
16/1(-45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Ceallach 16/1, Latest win at Dundalk in December. 7 lengths seventh of 11 to Saturn in handicap (12/1) at Leopardstown (10f, good to firm) 24 days ago. Significantly up in trip. All five wins on AW; fast ground will suit but up in trip and may find a few too good. |
|||
9th (7)  (22/1 -83%)Burren Song |
22/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Burren Song 22/1, 14/1, first run since leaving A. Slattery when thirteenth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (16f, good) 19 days ago. Useful on the Flat, creditable on last Flat run. Rattled up a hat-trick before third off same mark in last year's renewal; hurdles prep. |
|||
10th (5)  (66/1 -164%)Mt Leinster |
66/1(-164%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Mt Leinster 66/1, Course winner. 21½ lengths thirteenth of 17 to Fairytale Princess in handicap at this C&D (soft, 100/1) 10 days ago. Others have achieved more. 10yo did well for Willie Mullins but has shown little for current yard and hard to fancy. |
|||
11th (6)  (28/1 -100%)La Hacienda |
28/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) La Hacienda 28/1, Fairly useful mare. Well held last 3 starts (stiff task on return). Stays further and useful on her day; well beaten in Listed contest on last week's return. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
DAME RAPIDE is a dual C&D winner and is only 3lb higher than when winning an 18-runner handicap at this venue just over a year ago. After a winter break, James Barrett gave her a spin over hurdles a few weeks ago, which should have set her up nicely for this valuable contest, and the seven-year-old will relish the quick ground. Saturn was beaten only a length in a premier handicap here last month and now steps up in trip by half a mile. He's lightly raced and open to more improvement. Fairytale Princess is up 11lb for a C&D victory at the Guineas meeting and will find life tougher in this grade.
SATURN ran well in defeat when bidding for the hat-trick here 11 days ago and this regally-bred sort remains of strong interest stepping up in trip. Reina Del Mar made a positive start for this yard when fourth at Leopardstown so rates the main threat ahead of Fairytale Princess, who won in good style over C&D recently.
A dual course and distance winner, DAME RAPIDE is only 3lb higher than when gaining her most recent victory here just over a year ago

10/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (20) Yefimenko 10/1, €64,000 foal, Invincible Army filly. Half-sister to 2-y-o 6f winner Vitello and useful winner up to 8.3f Thunder Legend. Yard in good form. Interesting newcomer. Half-sister to winners Thunder Legend and Vitello, dam 6f-7f winner, in a top yard. |
|||
3rd (10)  (9/2 +31%)Beatrix Power |
9/2(+31%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Beatrix Power 9/2, Promising type. Fourth of 13 in maiden (20/1) at this course (6f, good) 12 days ago, nearest finish. Open to progress. Fourth on both starts, may struggle to reverse Navan form with runner-up OJW Legacy. |
|||

15/2(-150%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Gaenari 15/2, Fairly useful filly. Respectable second of 7 in maiden at Tipperary (5f, heavy, 8/15) 8 days ago. Back up in trip. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Smart form last season, has become frustrating, can hardly be recommended at this stage. |
|||
5th (13)  (13/2 +19%)Four Blondes |
13/2(+19%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Four Blondes 13/2, Lightly-raced filly. 4/1, good second of 13 in maiden at this course (6f, soft). Off 8 months but can't be ruled out. Ended last season with second over the orthodox 6f course here, capable of going close. |
|||
6th (5)  (25/1 +62%)Blue Balle |
25/1(+62%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Blue Balle 25/1, Twice-raced colt. 33/1, sole run for David Dennis when fourth of 6 in maiden at Wolverhampton (6.1f). Off 6 months and needs to hit the ground running. Last of 14 over 7f at Naas on only Irish start, showed a bit more over 6f at Wolverhampton. |

|||

150/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Ace In The Pack 150/1, Once-raced gelding. 66/1, tenth of 13 in maiden at Leopardstown (8f, good) on debut 19 days ago, not knocked about. Down in trip. Should improve. Made no impression in a 1m maiden at Leopardstown, possibly this trip will suit better. |
|||

7/2(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Sir Sagacious 7/2, Promising sort. Second of 8 in minor event at Dundalk (7f, 9/2) on debut, slowly away. Off 117 days. Should progress. Second to the very useful Take Me To Church on only run at two, strong contender. |
|||

150/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) It's A Gamble 150/1, Once-raced filly. 100/1, eleventh of 13 in maiden at this course (6f, good) on debut 12 days ago, slowly away. Slowly away and never involved on debut here, safely held by OJW Legacy and Beatrix Power. |
|||
11th (9)  (9/1 -13%)Speedwood |
9/1(-13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Speedwood 9/1, Once-raced colt. Fifth of 10 in maiden at Cork (6f, good, 12/1) on debut 26 days ago. May well do better. Not beaten far in fifth on debut in a 6f maiden at Cork, can improve but may need further. |
|||
12th (19)  (150/1 +0%)Set To Win |
150/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (19) Set To Win 150/1, Raa Atoll filly. Dam twice-raced half-sister to smart 1¼m-14.6f winner Dansant. Dam placed in France is a half-sister to Listed winner Dansant, likely to need experience. |
|||
13th (17)  (100/1 +0%)Never Thought |
100/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (17) Never Thought 100/1, Once-raced filly. Eighth of 10 in maiden (150/1) at this course (7f, good) on debut 12 days ago. Big price when down the field on debut in a 7f maiden at this venue, unlikely to feature. |
|||
14th (1)  (150/1 +0%)Adam's Boy |
150/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Adam's Boy 150/1, Once-raced gelding. Last of 7 in maiden (18/1) at Tipperary (5f, heavy) on debut 8 days ago, very slowly away.

66/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Eccellente 66/1, 7,000 gns yearling, Bated Breath filly. Dam, French 1½m winner, half-sister to smart winner up to 1m Venomous. First foal out of a French 1m4f winner, not a likely candidate for debut success. |
|||
18th (3)  (250/1 -25%)Mighty Brave |
250/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mighty Brave 250/1, Once-raced gelding. Last of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (7f, 66/1) on debut, lost all chance at start. Off 103 days. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Slowly away and always at the back on debut at Dundalk in February, tongue-tie on now. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Never worse than third, and runner-up in her last three starts, OJW LEGACY can gain reward for her consistency. The daughter of Kodiac has finished in front of Beatrix Power on her last two appearances, including in a C&D contest on Guineas weekend, and can confirm the form. Sir Sagacious was fancied when second over 7f at Dundalk, with the winner now rated 100 after finishing fifth in the Irish 2,000 Guineas. That is an eyecatching line of form and Willie Browne's gelding must have a good chance if he's fully primed after four months off. Gaenari and Four Blondes share the same rating, but the former has let down favourite-backers the last twice and the latter hasn't run since October.
The market can prove a good guide but OJW LEGACY rates the form pick on her recent second here so is taken to gain a deserved first success. Beatrix Power came in a couple of places behind her there and looks the main danger, although Ger Lyons' newcomer Yefimenko and Dundalk runner-up Sir Sagacious both need factoring in too.
This could provide a change of fortune for OJW LEGACY who has been beaten under one length on all three starts this season

Makes handicap debut. Plenty to find on form. Expensive yearling hasn't shown much in maidens; gelded and headgear on for h'cap debut. |
|||
2nd (4)  (12/1 -100%)Rathbranchurch |
12/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Rathbranchurch 12/1, One win from 24 Flat runs. Creditable third of 12 in handicap at Limerick (6.7f, soft, 15/2) 20 days ago. Chance on old form and merits respect for all that he's an infrequent winner. Consistent but only one win from 24 starts and would probably prefer easier ground. |
|||
3rd (3)  (10/1 +0%)Ice Cold In Alex |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Ice Cold In Alex 10/1, 4-time course winner. 20/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, good) 12 days ago, not ideally placed. Should be sharper for that and is worth chancing from an appealing mark. On a good mark nowadays, has his ground and if they go hard he'll be thereabouts. |
|||

9/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Saturn Seven 9/1, Course winner. 11/2, creditable fourth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, good) 12 days ago. Enters calculations. Course winner over 5f; good fourth here in higher grade over 6f on second start for yard. |

6th (13)  (28/1 -300%)Von Krolock |
28/1(-300%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Von Krolock 28/1, 9/4, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f). Off 6 months. Down in trip. Likely to strip fitter for the run. AW winner in October and has form on turf but would prefer further and off seven months. |

14/1(-40%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Inishmot Prince 14/1, Latest win at Dundalk in February. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap (22/1) at Navan (5f, good) 18 days ago.

16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Run Forrest Run 16/1, C&D winner. 15/2, creditable 2¾ lengths eighth of 13 to Distillate in handicap at Cork (7f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Chance if rediscovering old form. Hold-up performer won twice last year including over 6f here, would prefer easier ground. |

6/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Distillate 6/1, Latest win at Cork in May. Creditable sixth of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, good, 12/1) 5 days ago, never nearer. Not dismissed. Big price when recording fourth career win over 7f at Cork; not beaten far at Down Royal. |

Twenty seven runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, tenth of 14 in handicap at Down Royal (7f, good) 5 days ago, never nearer. Must improve. Six-time winner but on a long losing run and nearly always starts slowly. |

80/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Cross Border 80/1, Unreliable sort. Winner at Dundalk in January. Last of 10 in handicap at Tipperary (5f, heavy, 66/1) 8 days ago, slowly away. Back up in trip. Hard to make a strong case for. AW maiden winner for Eddie Lynam but has made no impression in four starts for this yard. |

13th (17)  (33/1 -32%)Wayne R Walker |
33/1(-32%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (17) Wayne R Walker 33/1, Remains a maiden after 24 Flat runs. Thirteenth of 19 in handicap at Naas (8f, soft, 33/1) 37 days ago, slowly away. Down in trip. Longstanding maiden produces the odd good effort including on AW in April. |
|||
14th (8)  (8/1 +11%)Tai Sing Yeh |
8/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Tai Sing Yeh 8/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2023. 8/1, respectable fifth of 13 in handicap at Listowel (6.3f, good) 3 days ago.

12/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Bold Optimist 12/1, Lightly-raced winner. First run since leaving Michael McCullagh when respectable fifth of 13 in handicap (11/1) at Naas (5f, good) 25 days ago. Back up in trip. Can make presence felt. AW maiden winner over this trip; ran well on stable/seasonal debut over 5f at Naas. |

17th (16)  (20/1 -43%)Amemri |
20/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (16) Amemri 20/1, Creditable 1¾ lengths sixth of 13 to Distillate in handicap (25/1) at Cork (7f, good to soft) 15 days ago. Not one to write off. Three wins over 7f/1m and hasn't run over this trip very often; 2l off Distillate latest. |

|||
19th (18)  (50/1 +0%)L'immortale |
50/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (18) L'immortale 50/1, Hooded for 1st time, bit below form eighth of 16 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 66/1) 19 days ago. Down in trip. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Others have achieved more. Modest form so far but better for respectable Leopardstown return after a year off. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SATURN SEVEN holds leading claims on just her third start for new connections. A two-time winner last season, including over 5f here, she proved her stamina when successful at Limerick over 7f. Following a promising run last time in a much higher grade, the daughter of Sioux Nation should be hard to beat under Shane Foley. Inishmot Prince is undoubtedly a better horse on the all weather but the Tom McCourt-trained six-year-old, who is handicapped accordingly on turf, shaped much better when fourth at Navan last time. He will surely find his level at some point on grass this season. Run Forrest Run tends to reserve his best for this venue, so has to be respected for Micky Fenton.
ICE COLD IN ALEX is handicapped to win, shaped well on his reappearance, and has an excellent record at the track, so he gets the marginal vote in a wide-open handicap. Bold Optimist and Rathbranchurch are two of the biggest dangers.
Ken Condon's stalwart ICE COLD IN ALEX ran well on his reappearance and there might just be one more day in him; fast ground will suit

4/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Layoftheland 4/1, Evens, ran another sound race when third of 11 in handicap at Fairyhouse (6.1f, good to soft) 6 days ago. Another bold bid expected. Consistent but failed to exploit a good opportunity at Fairyhouse, this is a stronger race. |

1st (5)  (25/1 -178%)Salah Belle |
25/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Salah Belle 25/1, Winner at Dundalk on debut in December. 9/1, eighth of 10 in handicap at this course (7f, soft) 30 days ago but unexposed so can bounce back. Dundalk winner, considerable improvement needed from handicap debut over 7f at this venue. |

2nd (11)  (28/1 -133%)Fivecromwellplace |
28/1(-133%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Fivecromwellplace 28/1, Winning reappearance at Dundalk in March. Good third of 11 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 9/1) 75 days ago. Back down in trip. Blinkers on first time. Dundalk 7f winner, placed over 1m last time, this shorter trip may not be ideal. |
|||
3rd (13)  (10/3 +70%)Dark Viper |
10/3(+70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Dark Viper 10/3, Bit below form sixth of 27 in handicap (16/5) at this course (6f, heavy) 45 days ago. Yard in good form. Merits consideration on Naas run prior to that. Good form in testing conditions this season, may be vulnerable on better going. |
|||
4th (8)  (16/1 +0%)Avatar Jet |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Avatar Jet 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving Richard Brabazon when sixteenth of 21 in handicap at Navan (5f, good to soft, 16/1) 39 days ago. Back up in trip. Uphill task. Potentially interesting on the form he showed at two, may have found 5f too sharp at Navan. |
|||
5th (2)  (14/1 +30%)Elinor Dashwood |
14/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Elinor Dashwood 14/1, 28/1, eleventh of 14 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good) 25 days ago. Needs to bounce back. Fourth over 6f at Naas, soundly beaten in a stronger handicap at same venue last month. |
|||
6th (1)  (16/1 -78%)Clonmacash |
16/1(-78%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Clonmacash 16/1, 13/2, sixth of 8 in minor event at Dundalk (6f). Off 6 months and mark leaves no margin for error. 6f Dundalk nursery winner, has plenty of weight and lacks a recent outing. |
|||
7th (10)  (4/1 +33%)Byzantine Empress |
4/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Byzantine Empress 4/1, Good third of 16 in handicap at Cork (7f, good to soft, 14/1) 15 days ago. That was a sound return to action. Did not get the best of runs at Cork, only 1/2l behind runner-up The Bear Trap, respected. |
|||
8th (4)  (4/1 +20%)The Bear Trap |
4/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) The Bear Trap 4/1, Unreliable type. Good second of 16 in handicap at Cork (7f, good to soft, 3/1) 15 days ago. Getting better with each recent run but he remains a maiden. Consistent maiden, edging up in the ratings but every chance he can reach the money again. |
|||
9th (9)  (11/1 -47%)Barley Cove |
11/1(-47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Barley Cove 11/1, Respectable third of 12 in handicap (14/1) at Naas (5.9f, soft) 37 days ago, faring best of those held up. Of interest on the back of that. Promising effort on reappearance in 6f contest at Naas, holds a definite chance. |
|||
10th (7)  (17/2 -70%)She's Smart |
17/2(-70%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) She's Smart 17/2, 14/1, career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Down Royal (5f, good) 5 days ago, despite being slowly away. Carries penalty. Back up in trip and she has to be taken seriously. Profited from a drop to 5f at Down Royal, may find a few too good under a 7lb penalty. |
|||
11th (12)  (40/1 -100%)Rosato |
40/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Rosato 40/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 4 lengths eleventh of 14 to Salah Belle in maiden at Dundalk (6f, 20/1), not knocked about. Off 166 days. Makes handicap debut and could be open to progress. Down the field behind today's rival Salah Belle at Dundalk last December; hard to fancy. |
|||
12th (3)  (40/1 -186%)Katie Bairdie |
40/1(-186%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Katie Bairdie 40/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Fourth of 7 in maiden (11/1) at Limerick (7f, soft) 20 days ago, not knocked about. Cheekpieces on first time and makes handicap debut. Failed to handle the track when beaten favourite at Sligo. still looked raw at Limerick. |
|||
13th (6)  (33/1 -83%)Blame Thechampagne |
33/1(-83%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Blame Thechampagne 33/1, Tenth of 14 in maiden (22/1) at Dundalk (6f). Off 6 months. First run for yard after leaving Mrs J. Harrington and worth a market check. Modest form at Dundalk on her final two starts for Jessica Harrington, seems regressive. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Having been short of room over two furlongs out at Naas last time, BARLEY COVE finished strongly up the stiff hill to claim third spot. Faced with an additional half-furlong here, the Wayne Lordan-ridden three-year-old should be keeping on late. Sean Davis has gone agonisingly close to opening his account in the training ranks in recent weeks. Layoftheland, a filly who has twice just been denied during that period, holds every chance once again under champion jockey Colin Keane. The Jessica Harrington-trained Dark Viper is another who has hinted that his turn is near, having hit the crossbar on recent outings.
SHE'S SMART bounced back from a quiet spell when successful at Down Royal on Friday and with this step back up in trip sure to suit, she may well be up to defying a penalty. Layoftheland and Byzantine Express are a couple of live threats.
Considering it was her first run of the season BYZANTINE EMPRESS did well at Cork and may reverse form with The Bear Trap

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.
