(12) Mount Parnassus 4/1, Thrice-raced colt. Blinkered for 1st time, second of 9 in maiden at this course (7f, good to firm, 20/1) 23 days ago, clear of rest. Sure to win races on that evidence. Good second in a 7f maiden earlier in the month; blinkers retained; drops back in trip.

16/1(-129%)
(9) Ides Of March 16/1, Foaled April 27. Wootton Bassett colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Starry Eyed. Dam US 2-y-o Grade 1 1m winner. One to take seriously on debut. Nicely bred Wootton Basset newcomer with a Phoexix Stakes entry; contender.
7
5th (7) (10/1 -186%) East Hampton
10
10/1(-186%)
(7) East Hampton 10/1, Promising type. Fourth of 11 in maiden (66/1) at this C&D (good) on debut 34 days ago, likely to have finished right on the heels of the principals with a clear run. Will improve. Very unlucky here last month; likely to improve for that and should be a leading player.

5.5
11/2(-65%)
(13) Snapdragon 11/2, 240,000 gns yearling, No Nay Never colt.

(2) Admiral Churchill 9/4, Foaled February 27. 65,000 gns foal, €200,000 2-y-o, Kodiac colt. Dam maiden (stayed 12.5f). Likely type on paper. 200,000Eur breeze-up purchase; the market should be a decent guide.
8

16
16/1(+20%)
(8) Grand Dante 16/1, Fourth of 17 in maiden (12/1) at Fairyhouse (6f, good) on debut 14 days ago. Open to progress. More needed from debut but could get into the frame if showing the required improvement.
14

7.5
15/2(+38%)
(14) Viking Invasion 15/2, Foaled April 1. €40,000 foal, €100,000 yearling, Mehmas colt. Brother to winner up to 8.3f Roman Dynasty and half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1¼m Vatican Hill and 6f-1m winner Luzum. 100,000Eur yearling related to plenty of good winners; one for the shortlist.

66/1(-230%)
(3) All Right By Me 66/1, Twice-raced colt. 11/4, sixth of 13 in maiden at Down Royal (7f, good) 7 days ago. Probably vulnerable. Mid-division in a pair of maidens here and at Down Royal; qualify for nurseries after this.

200
200/1(-203%)

11
12th (11) (20/1 +39%) Iron Fist
20
20/1(+39%)
(11) Iron Fist 20/1, Foaled February 15. 1,200 gns yearling, New Bay colt. Half-brother to 1¼m-1½m winner Bug Boy and 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Brunelle.

250
250/1(-400%)
(10) In The Minus 250/1, Foaled April 13. €5,000 yearling, Belardo colt. Half-brother to useful 1½m winner Blazing Skies. Dam, 1m winner who stayed 1½m, sister to smart winner up to 1¾m Endless Time. Inexpensively bought Belardo colt with a middle-distance pedigree; best watched.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
SNAPDRAGON gets blinkers and is expected to improve on an opening fourth place over an extended 5f at Naas. This No Nay Never colt holds a Group 1 Keeneland Phoenix Stakes entry. His stablemate, newcomer Ides Of March, has the same engagement and is highly likely to be involved, while Jessica Harrington takes the wraps off another Group 1 entrant in Iron Fist, who could show up well. Mount Parnassus, with three runs under his belt, and debutants Admiral Churchill, Viking Invasion and Beckman are other players. East Hampton suffered a nightmare route when fourth on debut over C&D in May and could outrun his odds in a deep race.
EAST HAMPTON was a big eye-catcher over C&D on debut last month and could be the way to go over the Ballydoyle pair Snapdragon and Mount Parnassus.
One of the most eye-catching runs this season was that of EAST HAMPTON in a C&D maiden last month and he might prove good enough
(7) Lake Victoria 3/1, Foaled March 22. Frankel filly. Closely related to 2-y-o 1m winner Bluegrass and 1¼m winner The Equator, both useful and by Galileo. Lot to like on paper. Frankel filly; closely related to winners Bluegrass and The Equator; well bred newcomer.

(12) Red Letter 5/2, Foaled February 8. Frankel filly. Dam 2-y-o 6f winner out of winning close relative of smart 7f/1m winner Etoile Montante, third in Poule d'Essai des Pouliches. Frankel filly; dam Listed-placed 6f AW 2yo winner; in-form yard get plenty of 2yo winners.

50

13/2(-8%)
(1) And So To Bed 13/2, Promising sort. 10/1, fourth of 11 in maiden at this course (6f, good to soft) on debut 33 days ago, slowly away. Expected to build on that for leading yard. Encouraging debut over 6f last month when green; should improve over extra furlong.

20
20/1(-82%)
(9) Marazion 20/1, Foaled May 8. Sea The Stars filly. Closely related to 2-y-o 1m winner Port Sunlight and half-sister to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 1¼m Trevaunance. Sea The Stars filly; quick ground will probably suit and yard can ready one for debut.

28
28/1(-133%)
(14) Valencia 28/1, Foaled February 5. €210,000 yearling, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to winner abroad by Kingman. Newcomer to note. Lope De Vega filly; cost 210,000euros as a yearling; may need further and second-string.
5
8th (5) (7/1 -180%) Dahlia Noir
7
7/1(-180%)
(5) Dahlia Noir 7/1, Promising sort. Second of 10 in maiden (5/1) at Leopardstown (7.2f, good) on debut 42 days ago, missing break but sticking really well to her task. Open to progress so leading claims. Hit the crossbar in Leopardstown maiden over 7f; form starting to take shape.

12
12/1(-71%)
(6) Exactly 12/1, Foaled March 24. Frankel filly. Closely related to useful 1m winner Salt Lake City. Dam 2-y-o 5f winner. Noteworthy newcomer (one of 2 for Aidan O'Brien). Frankel filly; closely related to 1m winner Salt Lake City; yard's second-string.

50/1(+50%)
(11) Mykonian Odyssey 50/1, Fifth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.3f, good, 200/1) on debut 22 days ago, never nearer. Outran odds of 200-1 when 5th in maiden earlier this month; needs to break better.

100
100/1(-203%)
(8) Lovely 100/1, Last of 5 in minor event (9/1) at Naas (5f, good to firm) on debut 40 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Should improve. Outpaced over 5f on debut at Naas; longer trip should help given her pedigree.

100/1(-300%)
(3) Blondina 100/1, Foaled May 5. Dawn Approach filly.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A race where the market will be very informative. Aidan O'Brien unleashes a pair of Frankel fillies in LAKE VICTORIA and Exactly with preference for the former. Lake Victoria's dam won the Commonwealth Cup, so she should have plenty of dash for this assignment, while Exactly is a half-sister to a Listed winner and will certainly know her job. Dahlia Noir can trouble the aforementioned pair as she finished well for second after a slow start over an extended 7f in Leopardstown. Joseph O'Brien's And So To Bed showed promise in fourth in a hot maiden over 6f at this track while her stablemate, Valencia, wasn't cheap at Goffs Ireland Sales.
Plenty of depth to this maiden. DAHLIA NOIR and And So To Bed both showed plenty of promise amidst obvious signs of inexperience on debut and seem sure to know more this time. Marginal preference is for the former. There's a good-looking bunch of debutantes to consider, too, notably the Aidan O'Brien-trained pair Lake Victoria and Exactly.
AND SO TO BED was green on debut but shaped like she would relish a step up to this trip and should improve for that outing
(9) Port Louis 15/2, Very good third of 18 in handicap (28/1) at Fairyhouse (7f, good to soft) 29 days ago, particularly given he was short of room. Major player. Roscommon maiden winner at 2; back to form when beaten 1l latest; met trouble in running.
10
1st (10) (13/2 +35%) Back Down Under
6.5
13/2(+35%)
(10) Back Down Under 13/2, 5/1, creditable fifth of 9 in handicap at this course (6f, good) 35 days ago given she wasn't seen to best effect. 0-11; hit the frame in 6 of her starts; can be slowly away; doesn't look well treated.
8
2nd (8) (16/1 -33%) Serialise
16
16/1(-33%)
(8) Serialise 16/1, Maiden winner on second start last month. 8½ lengths sixth of 8 to Everlasting in listed race (22/1) at Navan (8f, good) 20 days ago. Makes handicap debut and she's unexposed. Left her debut behind to land a fillies' maiden at Naas; Listed race was a tough ask since.
7
3rd (7) (13/2 -8%) Ice Cold In Alex
6.5
13/2(-8%)
(7) Ice Cold In Alex 13/2, 4-time course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2022. 13/2, creditable third of 19 in handicap at this course (6.3f, good to firm) 23 days ago. Enters calculations given mark he's on nowadays. 4-time course winner (inc' C&D); good 3rd here latest and left on the same mark.

4th (14) (7/1 +30%) Von Krolock
7
7/1(+30%)
(14) Von Krolock 7/1, 7/2, good third of 14 in handicap at Gowran (7f, good) 11 days ago. Likely to give it another good go. Ran with credit over this trip at Gowran last week; 5lb wrong this time though.

5th (2) (11/2 -65%) Current Option
5.5
11/2(-65%)
(2) Current Option 11/2, Improved on recent efforts to win 8-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (7f, good, 15/2) 21 days ago. That snapped a lengthy losing run but he retains scope on old form. No wins here in 16 runs but gained an 8th career success in a 7f Fairyhouse h'cap latest.
4
6th (4) (7/2 -27%) Transcending Glory
3.5
7/2(-27%)
(4) Transcending Glory 7/2, Winner at Dundalk in April. Excellent second of 13 in handicap at this C&D (good, 16/1) 34 days ago. Merits consideration given he arrives in top form. Off the mark in maiden on AW 2 starts ago and rock solid C&D run since; more to give.
11
7th (11) (8/1 +20%) Secret Magician
8
8/1(+20%)
(11) Secret Magician 8/1, Course winner. Eleven runs since last win in 2023. Last of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good, 17/2) 35 days ago. Tongue strap on 1st time. Dual course winner but has struggled this campaign and didn't beat a rival over C&D latest.

25/1(-25%)
(5) Alexander John 25/1, Winner at Dundalk in February. Ninth of 10 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 16/1). Off 98 days. Sole win came on AW but struggled twice since and off 98 days; back on last winning mark.
13
10th (13) (14/1 +13%) Positive Energy
14
14/1(+13%)
(13) Positive Energy 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Eleventh of 18 in maiden (100/1) at this C&D (heavy) 69 days ago, having hopeless task from position. Makes handicap debut. Needs quicker ground to spark major improvement on handicap debut (1lb wrong).
12
11th (12) (66/1 -65%) What A Squeeze
66
66/1(-65%)
(12) What A Squeeze 66/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time, first run since leaving Mrs J. Harrington when last of 9 in handicap (25/1) at this course (6f, good) 35 days ago. First run for yard after leaving K. J. Condon. Only narrowly denied over C&D in August but nowhere near that level in three runs since.
6
12th (6) (80/1 -100%) Gobi Star
80
80/1(-100%)
(6) Gobi Star 80/1, Seventh of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (7.1f, heavy, 66/1) 79 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Visor back on. Uphill task back no turf (better on the AW). Won back-to-back on AW in November but below form back on turf last time.

33
33/1(-136%)
(3) New Definition 33/1, 66/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at this C&D (good) 35 days ago, merely passing beaten rivals. Lost his way towards end of his time for James Tate; struggled in 3 runs for this trainer.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
TRANSCENDING GLORY finished runner-up behind a very in-form rival in a slightly higher grade over C&D last month and could go one better. Fast ground clearly holds no fears for him. Current Option bounced back to form with a vengeance in a quality handicap at Fairyhouse and has to be respected. Port Louis was nearest at the finish in third in his last race at Fairyhouse and didn't have the clearest route. He ought to get plenty of pace to aim at in this contest. Serialise is a lightly-raced sort who was highly tried in Listed company at Navan, while the veteran Ice Cold In Alex should be coming home stronger than most.
PORT LOUIS finished an excellent third despite a troubled passage at Fairyhouse a month ago and on that evidence, he can win from his current mark. Fellow 3-y-o Transcending Glory is feared, along with Current Option who ended a lengthy winless sequence at Fairyhouse last time.
After he was a bit of an eyecatcher last time, PORT LOUIS ought to run well with conditions in his favour and a handy draw to work with
(17) Siege Of Troy 15/8, Promising sort. 10/11, still in need of experience when fourth of 16 in maiden at Gowran (9.4f, good) 12 days ago, running on late. Cheekpieces on 1st time and he remains with potential. Shortlisted. Beaten neck on debut; shaped like she would relish this trip at Gowran since; cheekpieces.
13
2nd (13) (40/1 +20%) Trapalanda
40
40/1(+20%)
(13) Trapalanda 40/1, Decorated Knight colt. Half-brother to 1¾m-16.5f winner Ney. Dam 8.7f winner who stayed 1½m. Decorated Knight colt; half-brother to Ney; dam 1m winner; unlikely on debut.
16
3rd (16) (12/1 -71%) Sacred Oath
12
12/1(-71%)
(16) Sacred Oath 12/1, Lope De Vega filly. Half-sister to 1m winner Expand The Map. Dam useful French 1m winner (including at 2 yrs). Yard having good spell. Lope De Vega filly; half-sister to US 1m turf winner; dam Listed winner; interesting.
9
4th (9) (25/1 +24%) Shepperton Lodge
25
25/1(+24%)
(9) Shepperton Lodge 25/1, 72,000 gns yearling, Lope De Vega colt. Half-brother to 1¼m winner Candy Storm and useful 1m-1½m winner Regal Empire. Trainer going well. Wears tongue strap. Seventh of 8 to Gangster Granny in barrier trial at Dundalk in 2023. Weakened tamely when last home in a barrier trial but this sort of trip will help.
10
5th (10) (28/1 -75%) Slowdownbarney
28
28/1(-75%)
(10) Slowdownbarney 28/1, Once-raced gelding. Fifth of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (10f, good to soft, 25/1) on debut 15 days ago, racing off the pace and making only late headway. This promises to reveal more. Green on debut at Leopardstown but signs he was getting the hang of things late on.
15
6th (15) (15/2 +25%) Royal Entry
7.5
15/2(+25%)
(15) Royal Entry 15/2, Twice-raced filly. 100/1, third of 9 in maiden at Leopardstown (10f, good to soft) 15 days ago, faring best of those held up. Likely she can do better again. Left debut behind with 100-1 3rd over this trip; further progress on the cards.
14
7th (14) (16/1 -45%) Trethorn
16
16/1(-45%)
(14) Trethorn 16/1, Dubawi colt. Dam, 1m-1¼m winner (including at 2 yrs). 9/1, sixth of 10 in maiden at this C&D (good) on debut 34 days ago, not knocked about. Should improve. 6th on debut last month and well held; only 9s that day but needs to leave that run behind.
8
8th (8) (10/1 -25%) Rock Of Ireland
10
10/1(-25%)
(8) Rock Of Ireland 10/1, Much improved after 5 months off/with cheekpieces fitted when second of 12 in maiden at Navan (10f) in April. Below best when seventh of 9 in maiden back at that venue in May but pick of form gives him sound claims on debut for new yard with cheekpieces refitted. Major step forward from debut when narrowly denied in maiden; lesser run since though.
7
9th (7) (10/1 -54%) Il Sovrano
10
10/1(-54%)
(7) Il Sovrano 10/1, €235,000 yearling, No Nay Never colt. Closely related to 7f winner Shadowed and half-brother to 3 winners, including smart winner up to 1m Zofelle and useful winner up to 1m Queenship. One to note on debut for clues. No Nay Never colt; 235,000eur yearling; yard can ready one first time up; check market.
6
10th (6) (9/2 -125%) Hampshire
4.5
9/2(-125%)
(6) Hampshire 9/2, Galileo colt. Half-brother to 2-y-o 5f/6f winner Hms Endeavour. Dam US winner up to 1¼m, including Breeders' Cup Juvenile Fillies Turf and several other Grade 1 events at 3 to 5 yrs. Of obvious interest on debut. Galileo colt; half-brother to 5f/5.7f 2yo winner HMS Endeavour; may need this.
18
11th (18) (33/1 -65%) Vivacious Lady
33
33/1(-65%)
(18) Vivacious Lady 33/1, Waldgeist filly who left debut form in her wake when fourth of 14 in maiden at Gowran (8f, good to soft) 25 days ago, running on without being knocked about. Open to further improvement. Last of 9 on debut but more encouragement when fourth at Gowran since; has a bit to find.
4
12th (4) (66/1 +34%) Bucaneer's Spirit
66
66/1(+34%)
(4) Bucaneer's Spirit 66/1, Once-raced gelding. 125/1, tenth of 14 in maiden at Dundalk (8f) on debut. Off 7 months. Up in trip. Didn't show enough in a Dundalk maiden on debut and has been off 231 days; gelded.

300
300/1(-100%)
(2) Hollies Choice 300/1, Offered little in bumper/pair of hurdle outings and similar story tried on the Flat when last of 8 in maiden at Down Royal (12.8f, good) 6 days ago. Readily passed over. Shown nothing over jumps or on the Flat so far.
1
14th (1) (250/1 -150%) Epic Performance
250
250/1(-150%)
(1) Epic Performance 250/1, Midi colt. Half-brother to several winners, including winner up to 1m Darkening and 2-y-o 6f/7f winner Art Official, both useful. Dam 6f winner. Wears tongue strap. Midi colt; half-brother to 4 winners but probably best watched on belated debut.
11
15th (11) (100/1 -400%) Street Mentor
100
100/1(-400%)
(11) Street Mentor 100/1, Fair form. Runner-up on debut at Dundalk (10.7f) in March but failed to progress when sixth of 9 in maiden back there later in the month. Absent since but he could yet have more to offer now tackling turf for the first time. Tongue strap left off. Good 2nd on debut and probably did too much too soon since; off 94 days.
5
16th (5) (50/1 +50%) Don't Hassle
50
50/1(+50%)
(5) Don't Hassle 50/1, 200,000 gns yearling, Aclaim colt. Half-brother to useful winner up to 1¼m Qatar Man and 5f/6f winner Theriverrunsdeep. Dam maiden. Market should prove a useful guide on debut. Aclaim colt; cost 200,000gns as yearling; half-brother to 2 winners; likely up against it.
3
17th (3) (300/1 -100%) Out Of Theordinary
300
300/1(-100%)
(3) Out Of Theordinary 300/1, Once-raced filly. 80/1, last of 8 in maiden at Sligo (10.6f, good) on debut 44 days ago. Didn't beat a rival when 80-1 for last month's debut.
12
18th (12) (300/1 -50%) Threehavenine
300
300/1(-50%)
(12) Threehavenine 300/1, Once-raced gelding. 200/1, twelfth of 13 in maiden at Fairyhouse (12f, good) on debut 14 days ago. Tailed off when 200-1 for a Fairyhouse maiden a fortnight ago.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HAMPSHIRE makes a belated debut but does so on a prestigious weekend and it is positive that Ryan Moore rides. By Galileo, his dam won five American Grade 1 races on firm ground so is sure to be well suited by a fast surface and while he has no big-race entries, he is very likely to have plenty of ability. Il Sovrano's unraced dam is a sibling to a Group 1 winner so he could be capable, while fellow newcomer Scared Oath is out of a Listed-winning dam and warrants respect. Rock Of Ireland has form but disappointed on his latest run.
SEIGE OF TROY was still in need of the experience but seemed to finish with running left having taken time to hit full stride when fourth at Gowran (9.4f) 12 days ago. Still very much one to be positive about, she can make it third time lucky. Rock of Ireland is a player on the pick of his form and feared on debut for his new yard. Newcomers Hampshire and Il Sovrano are others to note.
After a narrow defeat on debut and shaping like she would relish further at Gowran since, SIEGE OF TROY could be the one to side with
(13) Golden Temple 14/1, Arrives on the back of 2 hurdle wins and has to enter the reckoning back on the Flat. Comes here in fine form after two emphatic wins over hurdles at Downpatrick and Roscommon.
17
2nd (17) (14/1 +13%) The Truant
14
14/1(+13%)
(17) The Truant 14/1, Tongue strap on for 1st time in this code, didn't need to improve to win 12-runner handicap hurdle (4/1) at Sligo (17.8f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Up in trip. Others more persuasive. Sligo hurdles winner; stable in fine form and another to consider in a competitive contest.
7
3rd (7) (12/1 -9%) How About No
12
12/1(-9%)
(7) How About No 12/1, Thrice-raced winner on Flat. Second of 11 in novice hurdle (evens) at Listowel (20.4f, good) 27 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Trainer going well. Blinkers on 1st time. Runner-up in maiden hurdles last twice; blinkers tried here but others look more likely.
5
4th (5) (6/1 +45%) Palamon
6
6/1(+45%)
(5) Palamon 6/1, Career best when winning 17-runner juvenile hurdle (2/1) at Cork (17.3f, good) 48 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time on the Flat (on when winning over jumps). Yet to go beyond 1m2f on the Flat and 9lb higher than his last winning mark.
14
5th (14) (14/1 +13%) Rain
14
14/1(+13%)
(14) Rain 14/1, Twelve runs since last win in 2022. 14/1, creditable third of 17 in handicap at this course (14f, soft) 33 days ago. Third last month; likely to find a couple too good again but could well sneak into a place.
6
6th (6) (10/3 +39%) Stoke The Fire
3.333333
10/3(+39%)
(6) Stoke The Fire 10/3, 18/1, creditable sixth of 23 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (20.5f, soft) 55 days ago. Fairly useful on the Flat, very good on last Flat outing. Enters calculations. Champion jockey booked and likely to have a leading chance; handles all ground.
9
7th (9) (5/1 +44%) Grappa Nonino
5
5/1(+44%)
(9) Grappa Nonino 5/1, Course winner. Good second of 17 in handicap (10/1) at this course (14f, soft) 33 days ago, no match for winner. Yard having good spell. Player. Staying second in a 1m6f handicap here last month; may still have some improvement in him.
8
8th (8) (16/1 -78%) Barrier
16
16/1(-78%)
(8) Barrier 16/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Bit below form fourth of 8 in juvenile hurdle (13/2) at Ballinrobe (16.3f, good to soft) 31 days ago. Gowran winner reverts to the Flat; top 7lb claimer on board and not without a chance.
4
9th (4) (25/1 +0%) Ted Hastings
25
25/1(+0%)
(4) Ted Hastings 25/1, Lightly-raced winner on Flat. Fairly useful winner at 20f over hurdles. 20/1, bit below form ninth of 19 in handicap hurdle at Aintree (16.5f, soft) 77 days ago, going in snatches. Ran okay when last seen in a handicap hurdle at Aintree in April; rider booking is a plus.
1
10th (1) (10/1 -82%) Scaramanga
10
10/1(-82%)
(1) Scaramanga 10/1, Smart hurdler who won a Grade 1 in America last May. Also useful on the Flat and has Ryan Moore booked back from 11 months off. Has to enter the reckoning. Off 11 months but absence not normally a factor from this yard; Ryan Moore booked; claims.
16
11th (16) (22/1 +0%) Walking On Glass
22
22/1(+0%)
(16) Walking On Glass 22/1, Bit below form sixth of 14 in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24.4f, good to soft, 25/1) 11 days ago. Fair on the Flat, creditable on last Flat outing. Good effort after seven months off in a Kilbeggan handicap hurdle last week; market check.
15
12th (15) (22/1 -22%) Bold Approach
22
22/1(-22%)
(15) Bold Approach 22/1, Twenty seven runs since last win in 2019. 6/1, creditable third of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (14f, good) 14 days ago. Yard in good form. Worth consideration. Two good runs off this mark earlier this month; getting closer to winning again; respected.
12
13th (12) (16/1 -33%) St Faz
16
16/1(-33%)
(12) St Faz 16/1, 5/1, creditable third of 10 in handicap at Leopardstown (12.8f, good) 22 days ago. Up in trip. Third in a Leopardstown handicap; stepping up to 2m should suit and he can play a hand.
2
14th (2) (100/1 -400%) Longclaw
100
100/1(-400%)
(2) Longclaw 100/1, Fourth of 7 in handicap (6/1) at Dundalk (16f). Off 140 days. Looks competitive on form. Off since February; each-way chance at his best but this is highly competitive.
3
15th (3) (33/1 -200%) Sirius
33
33/1(-200%)
(3) Sirius 33/1, Dual winner in France. Useful form when fifth in listed race there September 2023. Not seen since but it'll be very interesting to see how she goes in the betting on this first outing for Willie Mullins. Debuts for Willie Mullins after a 21 month absence; looks the stable third string.
10
16th (10) (150/1 -88%) Whiskey Sour
150
150/1(-88%)
(10) Whiskey Sour 150/1, Fifteen runs since last win in 2017. Ninth of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (14f, good, 100/1) 14 days ago, slowly away. Not disgraced in a Fairyhouse handicap last time but much more needed.
11
17th (11) (66/1 -164%) Chemdawg
66
66/1(-164%)
(11) Chemdawg 66/1, 1 win from 2 runs this year. Winner at Roscommon in May. 11/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form tenth of 18 in handicap at Fairyhouse (14f, good) 14 days ago. Uphill task. Disappointed in first-time cheekpieces at Fairyhouse two weeks ago; headgear is retained.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
GRAPPA NONINO is ideally suited by these staying distances and fast ground, and also ran well in a recent course handicap. He has won just twice from 17 Flat runs but scored here last August and while rated 4lb higher than his last run, he finished ahead of today's rivals Rain and Bold Approach and can confirm those placings. Ryan Moore is a notable booking to ride Scaramanga and while his year-long absence isn't overly concerning coming from his top yard, he has been well held on his latest Flat runs and is now a nine-year-old. Stablemate Stoke The Fire is a lesser-rated hurdler but is race-fit and ran well in Flat handicaps last year.
Dermot Weld won back to back runnings of this a couple of years ago and perhaps GRAPPA NONINO can deny the Willie Mullins contingent, headed by Stoke The Fire and Scaramanga. How About No and Bold Approach also make the shortlist.
Preference is for ST FAZ, winner of a Killarney maiden hurdle before a good effort over 1m5f at Leopardstown. 2m should suit him well
(16) Magic Charm 25/1, Course winner. Bit below form sixth of 16 in handicap (9/1) at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago, merely closing up late. Not ruled out. Course winner; both wins at 1m; best form has come on softer ground.
13
1st (13) (4/1 -14%) Lord Church
4
4/1(-14%)
(13) Lord Church 4/1, 2 wins from 2 runs this year. Progressed again when winning 9-runner handicap (7/2) at Cork (8f, good) 14 days ago, cosily. Improving fast and worth a chance to complete the hat-trick. Modest maiden form but major improvement in 2 h'caps this year; 5lb higher.
18
2nd (18) (20/1 +0%) Blackcastle Storm
20
20/1(+0%)
(18) Blackcastle Storm 20/1, 20/1, good fourth of 12 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good to firm) 8 days ago. Not dismissed. Encouraging run last week but just 1 win since 2020 and his career best came over further.
21
3rd (21) (15/2 +25%) Kentucky Gal
7.5
15/2(+25%)
(21) Kentucky Gal 15/2, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 16-runner handicap (40/1) at Gowran (7f, good) 12 days ago, just holding on. Up in trip. Enters calculations. Major improvement when winning at 40-1 on h'cap bow; new trip and Velazquez booked.
1
4th (1) (14/1 -100%) Apercu
14
14/1(-100%)
(1) Apercu 14/1, Thrice-raced winner. 7/4, won 14-runner maiden at Dundalk (10.7f), staying on well. Could do better still now handicapping after 6 months off. Won at 3rd attempt in AW maiden; form boosted and fair mark; fitness the big question.
3
5th (3) (50/1 -52%) Letiza
50
50/1(-52%)
(3) Letiza 50/1, 66/1, ninth of 13 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good to soft) 15 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Won Gowran maiden over similar trip but hasn't shown enough in 2 runs for new yard.
10
6th (10) (16/1 -88%) Brewel Hill
16
16/1(-88%)
(10) Brewel Hill 16/1, Course winner. Good second of 11 in handicap (6/1) at Limerick (8f, good to firm) 16 days ago, better placed than most. Not taken lightly. Course winner who ran a belter on his return and major player if he comes on for that.
2
7th (2) (12/1 +64%) Zabeir
12
12/1(+64%)
(2) Zabeir 12/1, 9/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourteenth of 20 in handicap at this course (7f, soft) 53 days ago. Back up in trip. Blinkers on 1st time. Needs the headgear to have a positive effect. Won sole AW start but he's 0-13 on turf and his best form is over shorter trips; blinkers.
15
8th (15) (22/1 -57%) Latin
22
22/1(-57%)
(15) Latin 22/1, Good third of 14 in maiden at Down Royal (10f, good, 12/1) 28 days ago. Worth considering. Placed in Gowran claimer and h'cap in 2 of last 3 starts; shaped like 1m1f may suit.
12
9th (12) (100/1 -203%) Unterberg
100
100/1(-203%)
(12) Unterberg 100/1, Latest win at Dundalk in January. Tenth of 11 in handicap at Roscommon (12.2f, good to soft, 18/1) 46 days ago. Down in trip. Won back-to-back on AW through winter; only beaten one home in each of his last 2 runs.
11
10th (11) (33/1 +50%) Tomahawk King
33
33/1(+50%)
(11) Tomahawk King 33/1, Last of 16 in handicap (22/1) at Gowran (9.4f, good to soft) 25 days ago, very slowly away. Tailed off after badly missing the break again latest but 2nd on his penultimate run.
6
11th (6) (22/1 +12%) Rampage
22
22/1(+12%)
(6) Rampage 22/1, Ninth of 11 in handicap (9/1) at Leopardstown (8f, good) 22 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Others make more appeal. Back to form when runner-up 2 starts ago but others may be on better marks.
7
12th (7) (8/1 -100%) Silkies Sib
8
8/1(-100%)
(7) Silkies Sib 8/1, Career best when winning 22-runner handicap (16/1) at Leopardstown (9f, good to soft) 15 days ago, pushed out. Likely to go well again. As good as ever when winning on return but 7lb rise looks tough.
19
13th (19) (25/1 -127%) Blue Soul
25
25/1(-127%)
(19) Blue Soul 25/1, Good fifth of 18 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good, 9/1) 22 days ago, never nearer. Shouldn't be ruled out. 0-11; and handicapper has been slow to relent; needs to improve for a first try at 1m1f.
9
14th (9) (50/1 -52%) Biggerthanbigtime
50
50/1(-52%)
(9) Biggerthanbigtime 50/1, 10/1, fifth of 6 in juvenile hurdle at Punchestown (16.1f, heavy) 151 days ago. Off 151 days. Up in trip. Below form on last Flat outing. 0-12; was out of form over timber when last seen; trip may help but off since January.
22
15th (22) (100/1 -52%) Lord Park
100
100/1(-52%)
(22) Lord Park 100/1, One win from 29 Flat runs. Sixteen runs since last win in 2021. Twelfth of 14 in handicap (5/1) at Dundalk (10.7f). Off 8 months. Likely to need the run. Losing run since Sligo maiden in 2021; showed little in 4 runs last year and off 259 days.
5
16th (5) (100/1 -52%) Noble Crusade
100
100/1(-52%)
(5) Noble Crusade 100/1, 2 wins from 5 runs this year. Latest win at Dundalk in February. Ninth of 12 in handicap at Leopardstown (8f, good to firm, 66/1) 8 days ago, unsuited by drop in trip. Last 3 wins over middle distances and seems on a tough mark at present.
20
17th (20) (25/1 +24%) Ringside Timing
25
25/1(+24%)
(20) Ringside Timing 25/1, 10/1, last of 6 in handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 21 days ago. Back down in trip. Others make more appeal. 0-11 so far; didn't beat a rival over 1m4f latest; tough mark on this year's form.
17
18th (17) (14/1 -40%) King Of The Bronx
14
14/1(-40%)
(17) King Of The Bronx 14/1, Lightly-raced winner. Career best when winning 12-runner claimer at Gowran (8f, heavy, 200/1) 50 days ago. First run for yard after leaving Nigel Slevin. Makes handicap debut. One to consider. Left maiden form behind to win Gowran claimer at 200-1 on soft; interesting for new yard.
4
19th (4) (11/2 +0%) Alpha Capture
5.5
11/2(+0%)
(4) Alpha Capture 11/2, Third of 5 in handicap at Newmarket (7f, good, 9/1), first home in group. Off 9 months. Up in trip. First run for yard after leaving William Haggas. Well worth a market check. Won twice as a 2yo but was regressive last year and new trip may not suit; new yard.
8
20th (8) (18/1 -13%) Tea Olive
18
18/1(-13%)
(8) Tea Olive 18/1, 13/2, respectable seventh of 13 in handicap at Leopardstown (10f, heavy), never nearer. Off 8 months. Can make presence felt. Out of form on heavy when last seen and better ground may help but off 250 days.
14
21st (14) (66/1 -32%) The Crafty Girl
66
66/1(-32%)
(14) The Crafty Girl 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 40/1, last of 5 in maiden at Galway (7.1f, good to soft). Off 9 months. First run for yard after leaving Barry Fitzgerald. Makes handicap debut. Has a bit to prove. Last of 5 in fillies' maiden when last seen; first run in h'cap here; off 290 days.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Improving three-year-old LORD CHURCH has good physical size so can continue to progress as he chases a hat-trick. He showed little as a juvenile and while he faces far more than when winning ordinary handicaps against his own age group at Limerick and Cork, he has been raised just 5lb for each win. Alpha Capture debuts for Willie Mullins and while once rated 103, he flopped last year. A slow-starter who wears a hood for stalls entry, he retains his same ownership and needs to recapture his Listed-winning juvenile form as he steps up notably in distance. Silkies Sib's half-brother was Listed-placed and while he is rated 7lb higher than when winning over this distance at Leopardstown, he should climb the handicap ladder further.
LORD CHURCH has looked most progressive since switched to handicaps and there's more to come, so he's fancied to complete the hat-trick at the possible expense of Brewel Hill, who shaped nicely at Limerick recently. Apercu is another one to consider.
BREWEL HILL ran a huge race on his return last time and he should go well with improvement likely and the ground in his favour
(18) Robbies Rock 14/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Second of 14 in maiden (14/1) at Down Royal (10f, good) 28 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Claims if he can back that up. Up to 1m4f for his handicap debut; totally unexposed and the market should be a good guide.
15
1st (15) (33/1 -136%) Courageous Strike
33
33/1(-136%)
(15) Courageous Strike 33/1, 16/1, first run since leaving Dominic Ffrench Davis when very good third of 8 in handicap at Gowran (9.4f, good) 12 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Up in trip. Can make presence felt. Good run at Gowran last week; steps up in trip here and not discounted if he handles it.
8
2nd (8) (20/1 -25%) Valleyoftheeagles
20
20/1(-25%)
(8) Valleyoftheeagles 20/1, Respectable ninth of 17 in handicap (8/1) at this course (14f, soft) 33 days ago, left poorly placed. Not one to write off. Second in a pair of Gowran handicaps in the spring before a below par run here last month.
5
3rd (5) (17/2 -6%) Master Dunraven
8.5
17/2(-6%)
(5) Master Dunraven 17/2, Winner at Navan in May. Good fifth of 14 in handicap at Limerick (12.5f, good, 5/2) 6 days ago. Not ruled out. Up 8lb for winning a 1m2f Navan handicap in May; down 1lb but has it to prove over 1m4f.
16
4th (16) (11/1 -38%) Model Approach
11
11/1(-38%)
(16) Model Approach 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Blinkered for 1st time, very good second of 11 in handicap at Down Royal (10.3f, good, 7/1) 6 days ago. Should remain competitive. Up 1lb for last week but could be progressive; has to prove that he stays this trip though.
17
5th (17) (10/1 +38%) Rotolo
10
10/1(+38%)
(17) Rotolo 10/1, 9/2, creditable eleventh of 21 in handicap at Leopardstown (12f, good) 42 days ago, not clear run. Not one to rule out. Not so effective stepped up to 1m4f at Leopardstown last time; others preferred.
9
6th (9) (25/1 -194%) Gracesolution
25
25/1(-194%)
(9) Gracesolution 25/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Good third of 13 in handicap at Listowel (16.2f, good, 8/1) 26 days ago. Back down in trip. Merits consideration. Drops back in trip after two good efforts in defeat at Navan and Listowel; respected.
1
7th (1) (16/1 +36%) Aird
16
16/1(+36%)
(1) Aird 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tongue strap on for 1st time, below form thirteenth of 20 in maiden at this C&D (soft, 7/1). First run for yard after leaving Kevin Prendergast. Makes handicap debut. Showed some maiden ability for Kevin Prendergast; best watched on her stable debut.
7
8th (7) (12/1 -9%) Son Of Hypnos
12
12/1(-9%)
(7) Son Of Hypnos 12/1, Good second of 13 in handicap (11/2) at Down Royal (12.8f, good) 6 days ago. Can make presence felt if the race doesn't come too soon. Caught on the line in a 1m5f handicap at Down Royal last week; 4lb higher; leading chance.
11
9th (11) (28/1 -75%) French Company
28
28/1(-75%)
(11) French Company 28/1, 7/2, creditable second of 11 in claimer at Limerick (11.5f, good to firm) 16 days ago. Worthy of consideration. Touched off in a fast ground claimer at Limerick; will be on the premises with a repeat.
2
10th (2) (12/1 -33%) Zariygann
12
12/1(-33%)
(2) Zariygann 12/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Third of 8 in maiden (17/2) at Sligo (10.6f, good) 44 days ago, running on late. Return to this trip will suit on handicap debut and he's worthy of respect. Sligo third not that well handicapped it would seem and needs to improve to figure.
14
11th (14) (13/2 -18%) Alonzo
6.5
13/2(-18%)
(14) Alonzo 13/2, Lightly-raced winner. 9/4, fourth of 6 in handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 21 days ago. May yet have a bigger effort in him. Opening mark of 80 looked stiff and proved beyond him on his handicap bow at Fairyhouse.
3
12th (3) (50/1 -100%) Autocrat
50
50/1(-100%)
(3) Autocrat 50/1, Cheekpieces on for 1st time in this code, below form seventh of 16 in novice hurdle (20/1) at Listowel (16f, good to soft) 25 days ago, unable to sustain effort. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Three-time AW winner from 1m2f to 1m4f; new headgear combo tried but others preferred.
4
13th (4) (125/1 -89%) Kincade
125
125/1(-89%)
(4) Kincade 125/1, First run since leaving Jedd O'Keeffe when nineteenth of 22 in novice hurdle at Punchestown (16.8f, good, 66/1) 20 days ago. Down in trip. Poor on last Flat run. Beaten a mile on his stable debut in a Punchestown maiden hurdle; hard to fancy.
13
14th (13) (11/1 -22%) Al Mudhaffar
11
11/1(-22%)
(13) Al Mudhaffar 11/1, Thrice-raced winner. 11/10 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, fourth of 8 in handicap at Roscommon (10.3f, good) 39 days ago. Yard having good spell. Blinkers on 1st time. Remains of interest. Blinkers tried and very much unexposed; could be a factor if the step up in trip suits.
12
15th (12) (4/1 +20%) Lady Christa
4
4/1(+20%)
(12) Lady Christa 4/1, 5/2, career best when winning 15-runner handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 14 days ago by 5 lengths from L'un Deux Trois, easily. Has been hit hard but merits plenty of respect again. Fairyhouse winner up 11lb but should go close with top claimer on board again.
19
16th (19) (100/1 -525%) Jurality
100
100/1(-525%)
(19) Jurality 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1 and blinkered for 1st time, first run since leaving D. J. Bunyan & G. O'Leary when last of 9 in handicap at Cork (12.1f, good to soft) 63 days ago, folding. Uphill task. Maiden form was okay but too free when dropping out tamely on handicap debut at Cork.

(6) Sub Rosa 150/1, Last of 13 in handicap at Leopardstown (9f, good to soft, 80/1) 15 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Easy to look elsewhere. Placed in a couple of maidens for Roger Varian; well beaten in two starts for this yard.

(10) L'un Deux Trois 14/1, 6/1, creditable 5 lengths second of 15 to Lady Christa in handicap at Fairyhouse (12f, good) 14 days ago, no match for winner. Can give another good account. 8lb pull with winner Lady Christa might not be enough to turn the tables from last week.
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MODEL APPROACH showed improvement when finishing second in first-time blinkers last Saturday and is rated just 1lb higher now. He seemed to benefit from stepping up in trip at Down Royal and while he meets older horses for the first time, he steps up an extra two furlongs which could suit. Lady Christa won easily at Fairyhouse recently but has been raised 11lb and has a more exposed profile that the selection. Robbies Rock has raced just three times and meets more experienced rivals on handicap debut but showed nice improvement when stepping up in distance at Down Royal last month. This is a tougher test but, in common with the selection, he steps up two furlongs in distance and is unexposed.
LADY CHRISTA made all with loads to spare at Fairyhouse a fortnight ago and, despite a hefty rise, she's worth chancing to go in again. There's plenty of depth in the opposition and Courageous Strike is of interest after a positive start for his new stable, while Zariygann should have a bigger effort in him back up in trip.
The one to beat could be LADY CHRISTA(nap), who relished the trip when winning at Fairyhouse and might not be halted by an 11lb rise

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.
