15:50 Down Royal Maiden 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ASHWIYAA may have done too much in the blinkers when weakening to finish last in a Listed event at the Curragh last time out, and a breakthrough success could be on the cards now returned to maiden company. Grand City Hall ran well when third in a 23-runner maiden at the County Kildare track and should give the selection plenty to think about, along with Back Down Under, who may appreciate the return to 5f.

Having shaped well in maidens at Naas and the Curragh, GRAND CITY HALL looks the way to go here with improvement likely now that he drops to the minimum trip. Indeed, he showed plenty of dash when third over 6f last time. Ashwiyaa found listed company too much last time but is a major player now back in calmer waters. Clonmacash is also respected on the strength of his close third over this C&D in June.

16:25 Down Royal Maiden 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

It is hard to oppose SMULLEN'S PRIDE, who put in a promising display when third on her seasonal return at Cork in June. The daughter of Exceed And Excel is a consistent performer at this level and could get off the mark here. Cross Border may prove to be the main threat based on his encouraging effort at the Curragh last month, although Roman Harry is also unexposed and should not be discounted.

A few of these arrive with question marks against them so this looks a good opportunity for form-pick SMULLEN'S PRIDE to get off the mark on the back of her good Cork third. Roman Harry and Cross Border both have better days ahead of them and can chase home the selection in that order.

17:00 Down Royal Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BRIGHT STRIPES improved to finish third over 6f on his latest outing at Naas and the son of Starspangledbanner could progress further for the step up in distance. The main threat looks to be Sli Na Ghealai, who has hit the frame the last twice at Tipperary and she is likely to have a say. Of the remainder, newcomer Volto Di Medusa makes the most appeal, especially if he attracts any market support.

This represents a good opportunity for BRIGHT STRIPES to make it third time lucky. He duly stepped up on his debut form when a close third in a valuable, big-field sales race over 6f at Naas, leaving the strong impression that he would improve for the step up to this trip. Newcomer Volto Di Medusa is not short of appeal on paper and could be the one to follow Bright Stripes home, with Sli Na Ghealai taken to collect more minor place money.

17:30 Down Royal Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

There were plenty of positives to be taken from VELVET SKIES' fifth-placed finish on his nursery debut at the Curragh recently, and the combination of a return to 7f and 6lb lower mark gives the Buratino gelding leading claims. Poppadom should also enjoy the stiffer test of stamina and is dangerous to discount on his first appearance since a gelding operation, while Hasshoffman is bred to be a lot better than his opening mark of 62.

Though VELVET SKIES failed to progress when fifth of 11 on his first run in a nursery at the Curragh, that was a respectable effort nonetheless, particularly bearing in mind that he was 4 lb 'wrong' at the weights. Able to race off his correct mark here and likely to benefit from the return to this trip, he could be the answer. Expecto wasn't disgraced at Killarney last time and may emerge as the main danger ahead of Poppadom.

18:05 Down Royal Handicap 18f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

BARNACULLIA (second) had Crassus (third) in behind at Bellewstown last time and the son of Ocovango has few miles on the clock in this sphere. The six-year-old is fancied to confirm that form en route to victory here. Rich Belief hit the frame in this 12 months ago and is interesting from a competitive mark, while No Thanks must be of interest with Frankie Dettori booked to ride. Others to note include Pretty Soldier and Curious Bride.

Lots with chances. BARNACULLIA arrives on the up and is fancied to go one better than his recent Bellewstown second with the winner having gone in again. Rich Belief rates the main danger on the back of his good Killarney fourth with both Crassus and Curious Bride well in the mix too.

Second over 2m1f at Bellewstown, BARNACULLIA holds a couple of these rivals on that form and should go close over a trip he'll relish

18:40 Down Royal Handicap 10f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

In a wide-open event marginal preference is for GOD KNOWS, who was not beaten far on her handicap bow in a competitive event at the Curragh last month. Off a 2lb lower mark, the four-year-old could be very hard to stop here. That said, Evening's Empire is an obvious threat following her narrow defeat over 1m 5f at this venue last time. Others to include on the shortlist are Who Not What, Neverfindanother U and Barrys Rock.

NEVERFINDANOTHER U figures on an attractive mark so looks the way to go if, as expected, building on her recent Naas fifth after a lay-off. Good Curragh fifth Giselles Defence is next on the list ahead of in-form pair Slaney Tide and Evening's Empire.

With a nice draw to work with and a recent comeback run under her belt, NEVERFINDANOTHERU is taken to resume progress

19:10 Down Royal Handicap 13f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Texas Sun struck over an extended 1m2f at Sligo on his latest outing and he looks an interesting contender as he steps up to this distance for the first time. However, preference is for CHARLIE DARLING, who outran big odds to score at Navan by half a length recently and he looks sure to go very close once more off a 3lb higher mark. Theresathought has run well enough this year to suggest that she could grab a place in this contest.

TEXAS SUN looked a reasonable prospect on his first couple of starts for Ger Lyons last season and, having got his career back on track since joining his current stable, he's worth a chance to defy a mark of 64 on his first go in handicaps. Estepona Sun and Charlie Darling could emerge as the main dangers.

He's nowhere near as effective on the Flat as over hurdles but maybe a race of this nature is within the compass of FUTURUM REGEM

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.
