12:17 Down Royal Maiden Hurdle 22f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Although BETTER DAYS AHEAD found the Champion Bumper a step too far when down the field at Cheltenham in March, the five-year-old is one to keep on side now tackling hurdles and up in distance. The gelding looks to be the pick of his trainer's quartet and he may be served most resistance by bumper winner The Busy Fool. The son of Doyen isn't taken lightly after his Thurles success last month, with winning pointers Nas Na Riogh and Annaghbeg completing the shortlist.

BETTER DAYS AHEAD didn't do himself justice in the Champion Bumper at Cheltenham but this point winner remains a good hurdling prospect. The Busy Fool looked above average when making a winning debut in a Thurles bumper 3 weeks ago so must be respected, while point-winner Nas Na Riogh is worth a look in the betting.

Gordon Elliott has won seven of the last eight runnings of this maiden and his BETTER DAYS AHEAD is hard to oppose on hurdles debut

12:52 Down Royal Handicap Hurdle 24f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A highly-encouraging second at Fairyhouse on his penultimate start, BALLYDANGAN should relish going back up to three miles and he is taken to get off the mark at the seventh time of asking. The six-year-old is preferred to the likes of Falvio on his first starts for new connections and Reserve Judgement, who won comfortably here in June. The veteran Benkei is entitled to be thereabouts, along with handicap debutant Hunt Museum and Eagle Terrace.

Plenty in with a squeak but the tentative vote goes to SPICE DIVA, who is bred to stay well and looks the type to do much better now handicapping. Hunting Brook failed to show much for Emma Lavelle but he could prove a different proposition on return for his new yard, while Workforadime, Reserve Judgement and Hunt Museum are another trio fancied to be in the shake-up.

A disappointing favourite at Cork last time, BALLYDANGAN is probably worth another chance based on his previous Fairyhouse second

13:27 Down Royal Novices Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Williamstowndancer had a few of these behind when winning a Grade 3 contest at Tipperary on her latest outing and she is likely to be bang there once more. However, preference is for the unbeaten BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD, who secured a victory in easy fashion on her hurdles debut at Thurles last time and she should have plenty more to come. The daughter of Kapgarde can take this before moving onto bigger targets. Banntown Girl completes the shortlist after her facile success at Punchestown last month.

Plenty of potential on show but BANNTOWN GIRL holds the clear edge on the form of her recent Punchestown success so edges the vote. Brighterdaysahead rates a fine prospect on the back of her easy Thurles win and is next on the list, although both Williamstowndancer and Birdie Or Bust are not without interest either in a cracking Grade 3.

Gordon Elliott adopts a bold policy with the unbeaten four-year-old BRIGHTERDAYSAHEAD and she may prove equal to the task

14:02 Down Royal Conditions Hurdle 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

IRISH POINT was a commanding winner of the Mersey Novices' Hurdle when last seen and Gordon Elliott's five-year-old is hard to oppose as he drops in grade for his seasonal return. Magical Zoe has race-fitness on her side and looks the most likely threat, having cruised to victory in a Listed event last time, while official ratings would suggest Sir Allen has a chance and he heads the remainder.

With race-fitness on her side and armed with plenty of scope for further improvement, MAGICAL ZOE is taken to get the better of likely market leader Irish Point. The latter sets the standard based on his Grade 1 success at Aintree during the spring, but he will do well to successfully concede 13 lb to Magical Zoe, who looked good when making a winning reappearance at Gowran. David Garrick scored on the Flat last month and could be in line for minor place money.

Race fitness gives a fighting chance to Magical Zoe but IRISH POINT has stronger credentials in overall terms

14:37 Down Royal Handicap Chase 16f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

An intriguing handicap that looks wide open and Gordon Elliott has three runners in with chances, possibly headed by WOMALKO, who is racing from the bottom of the weights. A beaten favourite at Clonmel on his first start since December last year, he might do better now under Mark Walsh. Dont Go Yet could be interesting dropped in trip and if he can get to the front to make the running, then he may be a major player. General Dynamics came home a six-length third at odds of 250/1 last time out and could be the surprise package.

WOMALKO gets the nod to build on a promising comeback run at Clonmel a fortnight ago. Henry de Bromhead's Itwasfate is feared most ahead of the thriving Paidi's Passion and the selection's stablemate Pats Choice.

It looks significant that Gordon Elliott has added WOMALKO (nap) to the field. He should strip fitter after a recent Clonmel run

15:12 Down Royal Maiden Chase 20f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Colonel Mustard showed a high level of form over hurdles last season and must be respected today, but preference is for FOUND A FIFTY. The six-year-old, who contested the Champion Novice Hurdle when last seen, is bred to appreciate the switch to chasing and he is fancied to make an immediate impact. Others to note include Lucky Max and Tronador.

FOUND A FIFTY was ultimately well held in Grade 1 novice hurdles at Aintree and Punchestown during the spring, but he looked very promising prior to that and appeals as the type to make up into a smart performer in this sphere. The 6-y-o is marginally preferred to Colonel Mustard, who ran a fine race in the Paddy Power Champion Hurdle on his final start of last season. La Malmason and Soldaro should both win races in this sphere in due course.

A smart hurdler who ran twice over fences last season, COLONEL MUSTARD may now put that experience to good use

15:47 Down Royal NH Flat Race 17f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Cailin Deas caught the eye on her debut and she is entitled to find plenty of improvement for that experience, but Gordon Elliott appears to have the better chances with Firefox and THE YELLOW CLAY. Both are looking for their hat-trick here, but the younger option arrives unbeaten after winning a Listed race by over two lengths in March and that form seems the best on offer and the booking of Harry Swan is a positive. That said, he will need to be at his best to see off his stable companion.

FIREFOX is a cut above this field and should have little issue making a successful return from 7 months off. His stablemate The Yellow Clay looks the likeliest to capitalise if the selection underperforms, although Wrecking Ballbilly can't be completely dismissed.

Gordon Elliott holds the aces here. Harry Swan partners the unbeaten THE YELLOW CLAY who is just preferred to Firefox

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.
