14:05 Down Royal Handicap 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Runner-up in a similar race at Naas 11 days ago, EL FONTENARO had a few of these trailing in behind her that day and she can go one better here with that appearing to be a key piece of nursery form. Weegeebear was just a head behind in third that day and is a must for the shortlist now facing his old rival off the same terms. The class-dropping Barton Key is respected having dropped 3lb from her nursery debut, while Moonhall Lass completes the shortlist.

ERIC LOCK took a step back in the right direction at Naas and gets the vote down another 3 lb in a race that doesn't look as strong. El Fontenaro and Weegeebear are a couple of the others to consider.

Virtual re-run of a recent Naas nursery in which BILLIE BE QUICK is taken to reverse form over El Fontanero over this sharper track

15:15 Down Royal Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

WONDERFULWONDERFUL possibly has the best form on offer after being beaten less than a length into third at Naas, but that was a maiden claimer and she will need to improve again to take this. Fairhaven is an obvious danger after she came home third at Roscommon last month and she can go well if her visor helps, but the once-raced State Of Joy may be the bigger danger. Only eighth here over C&D earlier this month, she looked the sort to learn plenty for that experience.

WONDERFULWONDERFUL took a big step forward when third at Naas and looks the way to go. Fairhaven has a race in her, while Arctic Steps is 1 of 2 interesting newcomers for Jessica Harrington.

Recent Naas third WONDERFULWONDERFUL (nap) looks the one to beat off her low weight

15:50 Down Royal Maiden 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

It may pay to persevere with the improving FUTURE CUTLET, who posted his best effort to date when runner-up over this distance at Galway in late July. The Buratino gelding is fancied to open his account at the fourth time of asking, for all that there are some intriguing newcomers on show. 485,000gns recruit Winsome tops the list under the tutelage of Joseph O'Brien, ahead of Sweet Thing, who is a sister to the precocious Golden Dragon.

Not a strong maiden and FUTURE CUTLET could be hard to beat with a repeat of his Galway second. Winsome cost a fortune as a yearling and might have found a good opening.

Future Cutlet is perfectly solid and should go well again but the standard is not especially hot and WINSOME could well be prevail

16:25 Down Royal Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A highly-encouraging third when not beaten far over this distance at Cork last time out, DEAR DAPHNE is taken to build upon that performance as she looks to gain a first success for her new connections. I Bid You Ajou (fourth) has just under a length to make up with the selection from that contest and he is likely to be thereabouts, along with the consistent Alex Belardo, who has been placed on three of his last four starts. Elliott and Inflection Point are capable of being in the shake-up as well.

ALEX BELARDO didn't enjoy the rub of the green when third at Musselburgh last time out so is fancied to gain a deserved first success off a 1 lb lower mark here. Elliott heads the list of dangers on the back of his good Fairyhouse fourth, with in-form duo I Bid You Ajou and Dear Daphne also well in the mix.

A trappy contest. ALEX BELARDO is knocking on the door and is a tentative choice. Glamorously, is an obvious danger

17:00 Down Royal Handicap 11f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

TATUM placed on all three starts in nursery company and the daughter of Postponed is a most attractive proposition on her belated seasonal debut from a potentially very lenient mark. Having won over 1m2f at Cork on his penultimate start, Barretstown appears to be the chief danger to the selection off just 3lb higher, while Redemptive Power and Darkened are a couple of other appealing options to monitor closely in the betting.

Gavin Cromwell's REDEMPTIVE POWER advanced his form when runner-up at Dundalk last time and with few miles still on the clock he looks the way to go. So Messi is weighted to have a say and could emerge as the main danger, although Little Lady Lucy, Cannes Do and Barretstown are also in the picture in this very open handicap.

An interesting betting heat with the unexposed \LITTLE LADY LUCY\p a hopeful pick. Tatum is feared as isRedemptive Power

17:35 Down Royal Handicap 13f  Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A few with chances but preference is for SCATCHWAH, who recorded a comfortable success at Roscommon earlier this month. Sheila Lavery's charge is 6lb higher on this occasion, but, with further improvement likely, that could prove lenient. Sceptred Isle brought up a double at Leopardstown in July and must be respected following a short absence, while others to note include Gangster Granny, Ard Na Mara and Sixpack.

Lots with chances but SCATCHWAH still looks ahead of his mark despite being raised 6 lb for his recent Roscommon victory so gets the vote. Redwood Queen appeals as a likely improver now going handicapping so heads the list of dangers with Sceptred Isle, Ard Na Mara, Gangster Granny and Party Dress all in the mix too.

PARTY DRESS makes plenty of appeal dropping back in trip. That said, Scatchwah is progressing nicely and could have a big say again

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.
