9/2(+10%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Pickersgill 9/2, Thrice-raced filly. 66/1, third of 12 in maiden at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Respected. First two runs were over 7f, showed considerable improvement when dropped to 6f at Naas. |

11/4(+75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Corcovado 11/4, Foaled April 21. £105,000 yearling, Night of Thunder colt.

|||
4th (8)  (14/1 +0%)Wish This |
14/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Wish This 14/1, Lightly-raced gelding. Excellent fourth of 8 in nursery at Navan (5.8f, good to soft, 11/2) 13 days ago, not clear run. May well do better again. Not beaten far in fourth in his first handicap, vulnerable on previous maiden form. |
|||
5th (13)  (50/1 -25%)Report To Station |
50/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Report To Station 50/1, Foaled March 24. King of Change filly. Half-sister to 7.7f-9.4f winner Slamadoor. Dam unraced half-sister to 6f winners Hitchens (very smart) and Tanzeel (smart). Half-sister to winner Slamadoor, dam unraced half-sister to 6f Group 3 winner Hitchens. |
|||
6th (3)  (11/4 +21%)Full Power |
11/4(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Full Power 11/4, Once-raced colt. Blinkered, fifth of 9 in maiden (9/1) at Listowel (7.1f, good to soft) on debut 28 days ago. Should improve. Made a low-key debut at Listowel, likely to be capable of a great deal better. |
|||
7th (7)  (7/1 +50%)The Duke Mardukas |
7/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) The Duke Mardukas 7/1, Foaled January 28. 25,000 gns foal, 72,000 gns yearling, Havana Grey colt.

8th (10)  (150/1 -20%)Kasjopea |
150/1(-20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Kasjopea 150/1, Once-raced filly. 80/1, tenth of 11 in maiden at Navan (8f, good to soft) on debut 13 days ago. Down in trip. Slowly away and never involved in a 1m maiden at Navan, unlikely to make her presence felt. |
|||
9th (9)  (40/1 +20%)Harlem Playgirl |
40/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Harlem Playgirl 40/1, Once-raced filly. Fourteenth of 19 in maiden (50/1) at Navan (5.8f, good to soft) on debut 13 days ago. Was 50-1 when down the field in a 6f maiden at Navan, will need more experience. |
|||
10th (11)  (150/1 -127%)Petite Madame |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Petite Madame 150/1, Once-raced filly. 80/1, last of 8 in maiden at Thurles (8.2f, good) on debut 12 days ago. Down in trip. Always at the back first time out in a 1m maiden at Thurles, can be discounted. |
|||
11th (1)  (80/1 -60%)Blue Bangor |
80/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Blue Bangor 80/1, Foaled March 10. Kessaar gelding. Dam lightly-raced half-sister to useful 7f winner Fiach McHugh. First foal; dam unplaced, half-sister to useful Fiach McHugh, later Red Lion in Hong Kong. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HOSTILITY was fourth in a hot maiden here over 7f before finishing runner-up over the same trip on yielding ground at Listowel. He raced prominently last time and positive tactics are likely to be employed again over this shorter distance. Full Power sported blinkers for his debut when a long way behind the selection at Listowel and will need to take a big step forward to contend. Pickersgill was over six lengths behind Hostility here in August but showed notable improvement when placed over this trip on easy ground at Naas. Saracen, a stablemate of Hostility and ridden by the stable jockey, cost 500,000 euro as a yearling, while Corcovado is a half-brother to three smart sprinters.
SARACEN looks a likely type on paper and is taken to make a winning start over stablemate Hostility, who sets the standard. Wish This caught the eye on her nursery bow 2 weeks ago and is another to consider.
Joseph O'Brien sets a poser. HOSTILITY has strong form claims and is just preferred to stablemate Saracen who lacks experience

3/1(+50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Jon Riggens 3/1, C&D winner. 7/1, creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at Naas (5.9f, good to soft) 10 days ago. Looked unlucky not to finish closer when fifth to stablemate at Naas, worth considering. |
|||
2nd (1)  (5/1 -43%)Merisi Diamond |
5/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Merisi Diamond 5/1, C&D winner. Career best when winning 12-runner handicap at Roscommon (7.5f, soft, 11/4) 8 days ago, sticking to task. Can give another good account. Suited by soft ground, two wins from his last three starts, can remain competitive. |
|||
3rd (5)  (11/1 -47%)Bid For Chester |
11/1(-47%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Bid For Chester 11/1, Course winner. Creditable third of 14 in handicap (20/1) at Naas (7f, good to soft) 10 days ago. 5f course winner on heavy in April, showed definite signs of a return to form on latest. |
|||
4th (7)  (16/1 -14%)Salah Belle |
16/1(-14%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Salah Belle 16/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in June. Creditable fifth of 16 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft, 22/1) 24 days ago, first home in group. Lost form after winning here in June, more like it again when fifth of 16 here last time. |
|||
5th (13)  (25/1 -178%)Run Forrest Run |
25/1(-178%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (13) Run Forrest Run 25/1, C&D winner. 9/1 and blinkered for 1st time, won 14-runner handicap at Cork (6f, soft) 21 days ago, always holding on. Should remain competitive up 7 lb. Took advantage of a declining mark to gain his sixth win three weeks ago at Cork, up 7lb. |
|||
6th (3)  (10/1 +0%)Mile End |
10/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Mile End 10/1, C&D winner. Latest win at Bellewstown in October. 8/1, shaped as if still in form when ninth of 17 in C&D handicap (good to soft) 17 days ago, hampered. Bellewstown winner early in the month, no luck in running over C&D three days later. |
|||
6th (6)  (10/1 +29%)Dagoda |
10/1(+29%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Dagoda 10/1, C&D winner. 14/1, twelfth of 16 in handicap at this course (7f, good to soft) 24 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Every chance if back to best. Two wins came back-to-back at this venue last season, mixed form here this season. |
|||
8th (12)  (11/2 +21%)Mount Ruapehu |
11/2(+21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Mount Ruapehu 11/2, Visored for 1st time, creditable third of 17 in handicap (12/1) at this course (5f, good to soft) 5 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Put in an encouraging display when third over 5f here last week but hard to win with. |
|||
9th (9)  (125/1 -213%)Clonmacash |
125/1(-213%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Clonmacash 125/1, 50/1, last of 16 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft). Off 115 days. First run for yard after leaving Miss Natalia Lupini. Something to find on form. Sole win for Natalia Lupini was in a 6f Dundalk nursery last year, first run for this yard. |
|||
10th (4)  (33/1 -65%)Miss Black Jack |
33/1(-65%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Miss Black Jack 33/1, Can have a line put through latest run at Limerick (6.7f, good) in July, headway when snatched up 2f out. Off 107 days. Has good chance on pick of form if primed after a break. Dundalk winner in April, set stiff tasks in Listed races, lacks a recent run, yard in form. |
|||
11th (11)  (12/1 +25%)The Bear Trap |
12/1(+25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) The Bear Trap 12/1, Respectable tenth of 17 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft, 14/1) 17 days ago, not much room. A 15-race maiden with fair placed form, did not get the run of the race here last time. |
|||
12th (8)  (12/1 -50%)The Organiser |
12/1(-50%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) The Organiser 12/1, C&D winner. 10/1, creditable sixth of 17 in handicap at this C&D (good to soft) 17 days ago. Enters calculations. C&D winner, fair sixth here last time, not sure to confirm form with the luckless Mile End. |
|||
13th (14)  (7/1 +30%)Sakakawea |
7/1(+30%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Sakakawea 7/1, 11/1, won 10-runner maiden at Sligo (5.7f, good to soft) under Billy Lee in May. Off since but brings an unexposed profile to this handicap debut. Opening mark of 65 is potentially lenient for Sligo maiden winner but it was a weak race. |
|||
14th (10)  (66/1 -100%)Never Cry Never |
66/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Never Cry Never 66/1, 25/1, twelfth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (7f) 11 days ago. Dundalk maiden winner last season, has failed to reproduce that form in three 2024 outings. |
|||
15th (15)  (100/1 -100%)Call Henry |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Call Henry 100/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, sixteenth of 17 in handicap at Galway (8.4f, soft) 81 days ago. Back down in trip. Easy to look elsewhere. Placed on AW in Britain, eased/tailed off at Galway on most recent of three Irish starts. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
An extra furlong would be optimal for MERISI DIAMOND but underfoot conditions should make this enough of a test for Joanna Morgan's progressive five-year-old. Well handicapped when winning over C&D in March, he has gone up another 14lb in total for a pair of 7f victories at Roscommon in recent weeks. A big hike may not bother this powerfully-built son of Caravaggio who relishes testing ground. Jon Riggens is coming down to an attractive mark and wasn't beaten far at Naas last time. Bid For Chester, a winner over 5f here on heavy ground in April, is also slipping down the ratings and this trip will suit better than the 7f over which he was third at Naas.
BID FOR CHESTER gets the nod to build on a back-to-form third at Naas 10 days ago. The Organiser has a reduced mark to work with and showed better signs last time so he's next on the list ahead of last week's Roscommon scorer Merisi Diamond. Unexposed handicap newcomer Sakakawea is another interesting runner.
It may be worth giving another chance to Bellewstown winner MILE END who did not the run of a messy race here earlier this month

6/1(+20%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Whirl 6/1, Promising type. Won 9-runner maiden at Doncaster (7f, good, 2/1) 39 days ago, kept up to work. Ryan Moore partners Giselle instead but this filly merits respect all the same. Won a 7f maiden at Doncaster, different ground now, Ryan Moore prefers Giselle. |
|||
2nd (1)  (16/1 +27%)And So To Bed |
16/1(+27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) And So To Bed 16/1, Lightly-raced winner. Succesful at Leopardstown in July. 28/1, 4½ lengths eighth of 9 to Chantez in listed race at Leopardstown (7f, good) 38 days ago. Yard also saddles Celtic Motif. Beat the useful Rough Diamond in a maiden at Leopardstown, limitations evident last time. |
|||
3rd (7)  (10/11 +24%)Giselle |
10/11(+24%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Giselle 10/11, Promising type. 1/2, won 16-runner maiden at this course (7f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Ryan Moore's pick of the Aidan O'Brien-trained quartet and she's high on the shortlist. Second to a smart stablemate on debut, can take a step forward from 7f course maiden win. |
|||
5th (8)  (8/1 -33%)Island Hopping |
8/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) Island Hopping 8/1, Promising type. Won 11-runner maiden (3/1) at Gowran (8f, good) 31 days ago. Passed over by Ryan Moore but she's a player nonetheless. Still looked green when winning at Gowran, looks a less likely contender than Giselle. |
|||
6th (10)  (18/1 +18%)Mint Candy |
18/1(+18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Mint Candy 18/1, Lightly-raced winner. 5/6, career best when winning 8-runner maiden at Thurles (8.2f, good) 12 days ago, keeping on well. Doesn't appear to be at the top of the Ballydoyle pecking order judged on rider arrangements. Twice a beaten favourite before scoring at Thurles, stable has stronger candidates. |
|||
7th (3)  (7/1 -17%)Cercene |
7/1(-17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Cercene 7/1, Twice-raced winner. 5/2, won 14-runner maiden at Naas (7f, good to firm) 33 days ago, impressively. Should have more to offer and while this represents a significant rise in class, she's clearly very promising. Made a promising debut at Gowran in July, further progress likely from Naas maiden win. |
|||
8th (9)  (100/1 -100%)Jaliyah |
100/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Jaliyah 100/1, Thrice-raced winner. Won 16-runner maiden (7/1) at Cork (8f, good to firm) 41 days ago, driven out. This is a much tougher assignment. Appreciated the step up to this trip when winning a maiden at Cork, more needed now. |
|||
9th (4)  (80/1 -21%)Copacabana Sands |
80/1(-21%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Copacabana Sands 80/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, good length third of 16 to Fiona Maccoul in minor event at Naas (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago, never nearer. Easy to look elsewhere. Outran her odds when third to Fiona Maccoul at Naas, this company is more demanding. |
|||
10th (6)  (40/1 -43%)Fiona Maccoul |
40/1(-43%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Fiona Maccoul 40/1, Thrice-raced winner. Won 16-runner minor event at Naas (7f, good to soft, 11/1) 9 days ago, suited by increase in trip. This is much tougher. Won valuable auction race at Naas nine days ago, faces much tougher opposition now. |
|||
11th (5)  (150/1 -127%)Famed Again |
150/1(-127%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Famed Again 150/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Good length fourth of 16 to Fiona Maccoul in minor event (16/1) at Naas (7f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Hood on 1st time. Plenty to find on form. Creditable fourth behind Fiona Maccoul in a valuable Naas event, a lot more needed now. |
|||
|DQ| (2)  (7/1 +13%)Celtic Motif |
7/1(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Celtic Motif 7/1, Thrice-raced maiden. 16/1, third of 14 in minor event at this course (7f, good to soft) 24 days ago, never nearer. Looks sure to win races and she should make her presence felt. Still a maiden but respected on account of her third placing in the Goffs Million. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Aidan O'Brien runs four last-time-out maiden winners, none of which are proven on soft ground, and much will depend on their ability to handle underfoot conditions. Ryan Moore is on GISELLE, who has been odds-on for both starts, including when runner-up to a subsequent Group 2-winning stablemate at Leopardstown in June. Not seen for four months after that, she returned with a victory over 7f here and is likely to come on for that outing. Whirl coped with a slight ease when winning over 7f at Doncaster, while the other Ballydoyle inmates, Island Hopping and Mint Candy, have won over this trip and are also open to further improvement. Goffs Million third Celtic Motif has place claims again.
This step up to a mile should suit CERCENE, who landed a Naas maiden in good style last month and, with further improvement likely, she can take this step up in class in her stride. Ballydoyle first-string Giselle is feared most but only marginally as Celtic Motif, who has shown plenty in a trio of 7f maidens, is also high on the shortlist. Giselle's stablemates Island Hopping and Whirl are also of interest.
If Frankel filly GISELLE handles the ground she may be good enough to cope with the step up in class from her 7f course maiden win

2/1(+11%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Rubies Are Red 2/1, Fairly useful filly. Creditable 11¼ lengths sixth of 11 to Je Zous in Denny Cordell Lavarack & Lanwades Stud Fillies Stakes at Gowran (9.4f, good, 20/1) 31 days ago. Has had plenty of chances, often running in good races, but can probably find one. Has kept top company, ran in a Group 3 last time having looked regressive in maidens. |
|||
2nd (5)  (5/2 +17%)Elana Osario |
5/2(+17%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Elana Osario 5/2, Promising type. Second of 10 in maiden (9/2) at Killarney (11.2f, heavy) 15 days ago, running on late. More to come still. Must enter calculations following second at Killarney, has an edge over Radar Ahead. |
|||
3rd (9)  (7/2 +36%)Radar Ahead |
7/2(+36%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Radar Ahead 7/2, Lightly-raced filly. Respectable third of 10 in maiden at Killarney (11.2f, heavy, 5/6) 15 days ago. Stable in good form. Worth another chance. Beaten favourite last twice and looks held by Elana Osario on Killarney running. |
|||
4th (15)  (13/2 +13%)Valinor |
13/2(+13%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Valinor 13/2, Thrice-raced filly. 3/1, third of 10 in maiden at Navan (10.2f, good) 31 days ago. This longer trip will suit. Has made the frame on all three starts, 76-rated filly needs extra to open her account. |
|||
5th (3)  (8/1 +33%)Bloom Vega |
8/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Bloom Vega 8/1, Twice-raced filly. 15/8, poor fifth of 7 in maiden at Cork (12f, good to soft) 154 days ago. Found just the 111-rated Chemistry too good on debut and worth another chance. Made a promising debut over 1m2f at this venue, needs to stay better than at Cork in May. |
|||
6th (14)  (200/1 -100%)Shaool |
200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Shaool 200/1, Once-raced filly. Seventh of 10 in maiden at Killarney (11.2f, heavy, 200/1) on debut 15 days ago. Never in contention in a Killarney race in which Elana Rosario and Radar Ahead were placed. |
|||
7th (2)  (28/1 -180%)Gaoth Chuil |
28/1(-180%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (2) Gaoth Chuil 28/1, Useful handicap hurdler, pulled up in Pertemps Final at Cheltenham last time. Has a return to jumping on the agenda but she clearly possesses plenty of class for a race like this. Bumper winner and useful 133-rated hurdler who stays 3m, may find this trip inadequate. |
|||
8th (12)  (80/1 -60%)Santa Princess |
80/1(-60%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Santa Princess 80/1, French Navy filly. Dam 1¼m winner. Dam won over 1m2f and is a half-sister to bumper/hurdle winner Imperial Ruler. |

200/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (7) Lady Gwendeline 200/1, Once-raced filly. 100/1, fourteenth of 16 in maiden at Naas (7f, good to soft) on debut. Off 14 months. Significantly up in trip. First run for yard after leaving Jack W. Davison. Dam won the Moyglare, soundly beaten on her only start at two, has changed stable. |

10th (8)  (100/1 -355%)My Little Lady |
100/1(-355%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (8) My Little Lady 100/1, Lightly-raced filly. 33/1, seventh of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, good to soft) 17 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Tongue strap on 1st time. Second over 1m at Cork in July, has never run over further than 1m, not guaranteed to stay. |
|||

28/1(-27%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Eglantine 28/1, 16,000 gns yearling, Nathaniel filly. Dam winner up to 10.5f (2-y-o 6f winner). Dam comes from a good family, trip should be within her range, Colin Keane booked. |
|||
12th (6)  (33/1 -18%)Gushing |
33/1(-18%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Gushing 33/1, Fair filly. Remains a maiden after 8 Flat runs. Respectable fourth of 12 in handicap at Killarney (11.3f, good to firm, 14/1) 99 days ago. Will do well to win one of these. Handicap form has been modest, significantly inferior to stablemate Rubies Are Red. |
|||
13th (1)  (100/1 +33%)Blue Electra |
100/1(+33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Blue Electra 100/1, Half-sister to useful 1½m/12.3f winner (stayed 14.5f) Master Blueyes. Pulled up sole start in bumpers. Was 50-1 when pulled up in a bumper at Tipperary in July, unlikely to feature. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ELANA OSARIO has progressed with each run and had Radar Ahead nearly three lengths behind when beating all bar Get over 1m3f at Killarney earlier this month. The Paddy Twomey-trained filly has scope for further improvement and is proven on heavy ground. Rubies Are Red is the top-rated and was highly tried earlier this season, but couldn't take advantage of a couple of opportunities since in maidens over this trip at Bellewstown and Galway. Valinor was runner-up over an extended 1m1f here on her second start, while Bloom Vega showed promise in the spring and is another to consider along with Gaoth Chuil, a useful handicap hurdler who will certainly not lack for stamina.
ELANA OSARIO has improved with each start and is fancied to open her account. The fantastically-bred Rubies Are Red, who has contested the English and Irish Oaks among other races this year, has to be feared back in a maiden with Ryan Moore up for the first time since her eye-catching effort at Lingfield in the spring. Radar Ahead is another to note.
The 88-rated Rubies Are Red is risky. The vote goes to ELANA OSARIO who has the measure of Radar Ahead on Killarney running

Bit below form tenth of 20 in handicap (40/1) at Naas (16.1f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Back down in trip and he faces a stiff task at the weights. Dual-purpose sort has been a fine servant to his yard; run well but a bit to find today. |

200/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (11) Essential Part 200/1, Modest mare. Blinkers on for 1st time in this code, fifteenth of 18 in handicap hurdle (80/1) at Gowran (20.2f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Plenty to find on form. Dual-purpose maiden is out of her depth in this grade. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CHALLY CHUTE has won three times over this distance and probably ran a career best when just denied in the featured Guinness Handicap at the Galway Festival this summer. The selection will appreciate the drop back to 1m4f after weakening in the closing stages of the Irish Cesarewitch. Helvic Dream bids to repeat his success in this race last year and will have ground conditions to suit. The former Group 1 winner has been mainly campaigned over hurdles since but still retains plenty of ability, while it will be fascinating to see how strong Sonnyboyliston is in the market after a lengthy layoff. He won the Ebor Handicap and the Irish St Leger back in 2021 but hasn't been seen since filling the runner-up spot in a valuable handicap at Riyadh in February 2022.
CHALLY CHUTE was down the field in the Irish Cesarewitch here recently but this is a less taxing assignment and he is clearly the one to beat on these terms. It's likely that Helvic Dream will emerge as the main danger, with Smooth Tom best of the rest ahead of the Ascending and Bright Legend.
Helvic Dream may struggle to give 7lb to CHALLY CHUTE who is better suited to this trip than the 2m of the Cesarewitch last time.

Twelfth of 14 in handicap (22/1) at Down Royal (12.8f, soft) 22 days ago. Down in trip. Not taken lightly. Maiden winner on soft ran well over hurdles since; poor last time and has to bounce back. |

16/1(-33%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (1) Loingseoir 16/1, Course winner. Latest win at Fairyhouse in September. Bit below form sixth of 10 in handicap at this course (8f, good to soft, 15/2) 17 days ago. Up in trip. Didn't get a clear run here last time and stepping up to this trip will suit; ground fine. |

|||
12th (14)  (14/1 -75%)Tartaraghan |
14/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (14) Tartaraghan 14/1, Remains a maiden after 19 Flat runs. Good second of 15 in handicap at Navan (10f, good to soft, 11/1) 13 days ago. Respected. Best form has come on a sound surface but has a shout if handling these conditions. |

Bit below form fourth of 12 in handicap hurdle (10/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, good) 15 days ago, running on. Significantly up in trip. Chance if rediscovering old form. Poor Flat form earlier this year and mostly over hurdles lately; others appeal more. |

50/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (6) Top Of The Pops 50/1, Lightly-raced winner. First run since leaving Mark Johnston when ninth of 12 in handicap (100/1) at Roscommon (7.5f, soft) 8 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Back from a 1220 day absence when well beaten at Roscommon recently; best watched for now. |

11/1(+45%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (10) Tribal Moon 11/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, good eighth of 13 in handicap at Killarney (8.1f, heavy) 15 days ago. Up in trip. Not an obvious one on form but the booking of Colin Keane takes the eye. Tongue-tie and cheekpieces worn last time are left off; step up in trip should suit. |
|||
19th (5)  (28/1 -75%)Unterberg |
28/1(-75%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (5) Unterberg 28/1, 9/1, below form sixth of 11 in handicap at Naas (10.4f, good to soft) 9 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Second at Cork over 1m1f but has been well below that level twice since; ground concerns. |
|||
20th (19)  (100/1 0%)Back O' The Net |
100/1(0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (19) Back O' The Net 100/1, Eleventh of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (8f, 125/1) 25 days ago. Up in trip. Blinkered for 1st time. Dual-purpose maiden is officially rated only 37 and isn't easy to fancy with blinkers on. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ALFALFA has been lightly raced this season but indicated he's ready to add to a 1m4f Thurles success on soft ground around this time last year when finishing strongly into third behind Bear Profit over this trip at Naas recently. The Tim Doyle-trained gelding was given plenty to do on that occasion and Wayne Hassett now claims a valuable 5lb. Starting Monday relishes soft ground and also came home well when third at Listowel last time. However, he's probably best suited by a mile and may find this distance a shade too far. Party Dress won well on soft ground at Tipperary back in the spring while others to consider include Nans View, Aljadel and Tartaraghan.
STARTING MONDAY shaped as if back in form with cheekpieces refitted last time and gets the nod with Billy Lee back in the saddle. Last week's Naas third Alfalfa heads the many dangers along with Tartaraghan and Nans View.
Running on at Naas last time having had plenty to do, ALFALFA will be better suited by the more testing ground today.

Significantly back up in trip. Fair on the Flat, respectable on last Flat run. Solid efforts in defeat in three maidens plus two h'caps; has a shout with ground no issue. |
|||
14th (3)  (50/1 -25%)Drum Roll |
50/1(-25%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (3) Drum Roll 50/1, 33/1, fourteenth of 15 in handicap hurdle at Roscommon (15.6f, good) 134 days ago. Off 134 days. Fair on the Flat, poor on last Flat outing. Work to do on handicap debut. Maiden on the Flat in France was poor in handicap hurdles for this yard; market can guide. |
|||
15th (19)  (33/1 -136%)Kampala Beach |
33/1(-136%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (19) Kampala Beach 33/1, 10/3, tenth of 14 in handicap at Dundalk (10.7f) 32 days ago. Others more persuasive. Finished lame on recent AW comeback; unproven in these conditions. |
|||

|||
17th (17)  (16/1 +0%)Sweet Verona |
16/1(+0%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (17) Sweet Verona 16/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Tenth of 13 in handicap at Bellewstown (7.9f, good to soft, 5/1) 19 days ago. Back up in trip. Others more persuasive. Third over 9.5f at Clonmel but was below that form over a mile at Bellewstown. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Although 10lb higher as a result of his recent Navan win, CALZAGHI can follow up. The Kevin Coleman-trained gelding did very well to win at the County Meath track as he was slowly away and had to pass the entire field to gain a first career success. Granted a better break on this occasion, he looks the one to beat. Well-backed Thurles runner-up Warazam gives the impression that she will appreciate stepping up to this trip. Having lost her position early on at Thurles earlier in the month, the three-year-old was finishing strongly inside the final furlong. Colin Keane is an interesting booking on the handicap debutant Wing Glider, with the champion jockey retaining the ride having partnered her at Killarney recently.
CALZAGHI got off the mark at Navan earlier this month and still has few miles on the clock. He is taken to follow up. Warazam and French Company head the list of dangers.
Having got off the mark in convincing fashion at Navan last time CALZAGHI(nap) could double up despite getting a 10lb rise.

Remains fairly treated and must enter calculations. Engaged 4.30 Gowran Park Monday. Better off at weights with Breezy Zoff, previous course form a worry, each-way claims. |
|||
12th (12)  (9/4 +55%)Purring Along |
9/4(+55%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (12) Purring Along 9/4, Much improved, on debut for new yard, when winning 27-runner handicap (28/1) over C&D (good to soft) 5 days ago, kept up to work. 7 lb penalty to carry now but another bold bid is anticipated. Easy C&D winner last week, jockey's claim negates 7lb penalty, big chance if in same form. |
|||
13th (4)  (22/1 -120%)Breezy Zoff |
22/1(-120%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (4) Breezy Zoff 22/1, C&D winner who got back on scoreboard when landing 15-runner handicap at Roscommon (7.5f, soft, 11/2) 8 days ago by 1¾ lengths from Asisaid.

18th (9)  (28/1 +15%)Mulgrave |
28/1(+15%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (9) Mulgrave 28/1, 17/2, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Cork (8f, good to soft) 21 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Six-time AW winner, 23-race maiden on turf, opposable on soft ground. |
|||
19th (15)  (80/1 -100%)Dark Willow |
80/1(-100%) | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | (15) Dark Willow 80/1, Eighth of 11 in maiden at Navan (8f, good, 150/1) 45 days ago. Work to do. 0-6, well-beaten in sole handicap, 150-1 for latest heavy maiden defeat, hard to fancy. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Fourth over C&D last time, GENUINE JIM can provide Nicola Burns with a first career winner. Despite being sent off 100/1, the Galileo Gold colt ran a huge race from stall 3 to 'win' his side of a race which was dominated by those drawn high. Potentially much better housed on this occasion, the lightly raced four-year-old can open his account. Purring Along, winner of that aforementioned contest, should again play a leading role. Although she carries a 7lb penalty for that success, that weight is negated by the 10lb claim of the promising Julian Pietropaolo. Dropping back in trip is unlikely to inconvenience recent course runner-up Nahori.
PURRING ALONG made a winning start for new connections over C&D last week and still looks fairly treated on old form. She gets the nod in the finale. Omakase, Breezy Zoff and Nahori make up the shortlist.
A chance is taken on OMAKASE who ran a cracker after a long absence at Bellewstown and she is thrown in on her 2yo course form.

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.
