The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Based on the summary, 4/1 (11) OTTIZZINI and 6.5/1 (3) BOB CIGAR both have obvious claims and are promising individuals, so they are likely to do well in the race. 14/1 (2) BALLYQUIN BAY and 5/1 (4) DANADA could also be contenders, as they have shown fair performances in their past races and have the potential to improve. Therefore, the horses that will finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd places could be 4/1 (11) OTTIZZINI, 6.5/1 (3) BOB CIGAR, and 14/1 (2) BALLYQUIN BAY.
DANADA made a promising debut at Clonmel back in January and with natural improvement he may be able to strike now. The Mahler gelding stayed on nicely when third to Cillians Charm and stepping up in trip now looks like he should be a big help. The Ballyline Man was beaten favourite in a Cork bumper on his first outing for Willie Mullins last month, finishing a moderate enough fourth. Going jumping now could bring improvement though from the Masterofthehorse gelding and he has to be respected. Ottizzini ran well when third over course and distance last month and is another for the shortlist.
The vote goes to DANADA, who made a promising start to his career when third at Clonmel in January and this step up in trip can help unlock improvement. Ottizzini doesn't look especially progressive but she's a key player nonetheless and is feared most ahead of the Willie Mullins-trained hurdling debutant The Ballyline Man. Bob Cigar looks the pick of the Gordon Elliott duo and also enters calculations.
Ottizzini sets the standard but could be vulnerable to an improver such as DANADA, who caught the eye at Clonmel

1st (10) (6.5/1 +13%) Kelly's Birr |
6.5/1(+13%) | (10) Kelly's Birr 6.5/1, Blinkered for 1st time, twelfth of 14 in novice hurdle (50/1) at Punchestown (22.1f, good to soft) 72 days ago, going off too hard. First run for yard after leaving John Patrick Ryan. The odd promising run for previous yard; of interest now with Gordon Elliott.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (1) (3/1 +14%) Mighty Jeremy |
3/1(+14%) | (1) Mighty Jeremy 3/1, Two wins from 4 runs last season. Career best when winning 14-runner handicap hurdle at Tramore (20.3f, soft, 15/8) 19 days ago, comfortably. Improving in leaps and bounds. Up the weights for two Clonmel wins and could do with the ground softening up.. |

16/1(+52%) | (5) Who's Houdini 16/1, Pulled up in handicap hurdle at Naas (18.9f, soft, 66/1) 36 days ago. Poor back over hurdles at Naas but can win races off this mark if getting his act together. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
1st: 3.5/1 (1) MIGHTY JEREMY 2nd: 4/1 (7) CLEAR THE CLOUDS 3rd: 6/1 (6) KING FERDINAND
JENNY FLEX is interesting here on her handicap debut. The well-bred daughter of Walk In The Park shaped with promise in maiden hurdles over the winter and looks on an attractive mark now. Danny Gilligan takes a valuable 7lb off her back to leave the half-sister to Scarlet And Dove on a nice racing weight. Mighty Jeremy heads the weights after two recent wins and is probably the one to beat. Connections changed tactics completely last time at Tramore when he made all and if he does something similar here around another undulating track he could be hard to peg back. King Ferdinand just failed by a head to peg back Elsannah at Cork last time and the Milan gelding is another that has to be considered.
MIGHTY JEREMY is suddenly improving at a rate of knots and the hat-trick looks a distinct possibility. Jenny Flex and Sheephaven Flyer represent good yards and both are open to progress now handicapping.
A few with chances. KELLY'S BIRR hinted at winning potential for her previous yard and could be interesting now with Gordon Elliott.

1.2/1(+31%) | (13) Ring O Roses 1.2/1, Promising individual. 12/1, third of 15 in novice hurdle at Navan (16f, good to soft) on NH debut 82 days ago. Open to improvement for excellent yard. Looks to have a future judged on her third behind respected opposition at Navan.. |

2.5/1(+44%) | (5) Artiste D'ainay 2.5/1, Fair hurdler. Good second of 8 in novice hurdle (5/2) at Sedgefield (16.8f, heavy) 21 days ago. Now 0-6 but consistent in Irish/British maidens and entitled to be on the scene.. |

6th (7) (50/1 -52%) Maxios Show |
50/1(-52%) | (7) Maxios Show 50/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 28/1, sixteenth of 25 in handicap hurdle at Naas (15.9f, soft) 136 days ago. Well beaten off low marks in two handicaps and doesn't look up to winning a maiden.. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
It is difficult to predict with certainty which horse will do well based on this summary alone. However, some horses to consider for the top three positions based on their recent performances and potential are: 4.5/1 (5) ARTISTE D'AINAY, 11/1 (3) STELLIUM, and 1.75/1 (13) RING O ROSES. It is important to note that horse racing is unpredictable, and other factors such as weather and track conditions, jockey performance, and unforeseen circumstances can also impact the outcome of the race.
RING O ROSES can strike here after a nice run on her debut at Navan back in February. The Flemensfirth mare kept on nicely when third to easy winner Ho My Lord then and this looks an easier task now. She had Ossifer Hops ten lengths behind in fourth that day and should be able to confirm placings. That rival ran well last time out when chasing home Jay Jay Zee in Ballinrobe. Artiste D'ainay has been knocking on the door across the water and has to be on the shortlist. It will be interesting to see how he fares now back on home soil.
RING O ROSES offered plenty to work on when third starting out at Navan in February and with the prospect of more to come, she's more than capable of winning a maiden. Ossifer Hops and Artiste D'ainay look the main threats.
Henry De Bromhead's RING OR ROSES (nap) ran a race full of promise at Navan and she's bred to go on to better things.

28/1(-100%) | (3) Lady Iseult 28/1, Hurdles winner at Roscommon in June. Good third of 7 in minor event hurdle (5/1) at Limerick (20f, good). Off 9 months. Needs a couple of these to falter. Perhaps better at 2m4f than this trip and seems to need good ground.. |

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
1st: 2/1 (7) THEONEWEDREAMOF 2nd: 7.5/1 (1) RETURN TO BASE 3rd: 10/1 (9) MATER MATUTA
A competitive looking contest and THEONEWEDREAMOF is fancied to continue her recent good form. The French Navy filly won on the Flat at Bellewstown last time and still looks on a nice mark back over timber. She had won at Punchestown in late January before finishing a staying on fourth at Thurles the following month. Stepping up slightly in trip now over hurdles should suit. Return To Base ran a solid race to finish third here last month. She is respected but may appreciate a bit further. Will You Win is another last time out winner in the field. She won a maiden hurdle in Clonmel last month and was pulling away late on over two-and-a-half miles. She had also been third over a similar trip here last October and that course experience is an asset.
Though she failed to make much of an impact at Fairyhouse last time, SPLASHING OUT appeared to be on the right track prior to that and she could be the answer if responding well to the first-time cheekpieces. Theonewedreamof scored on the Flat last month and, having also performed well on her latest start in this sphere, she looks dangerous. She's Tobias is third choice, while Cool Croi may well leave her previous hurdles efforts behind now pitched into a handicap.
Cases can be made for a few of these but top of the list is SPLASHING OUT, who should be winning races off her current mark.

8/1(+11%) | (7) Finnians Row 8/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. Bit below form 28¾ lengths seventh of 13 to Likable Chancer in handicap chase (8/1) at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Looks competitive on form. Best form at 2m4f so stamina concerns remain at this trip despite better ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (10) (25/1 -79%) Monoxide |
25/1(-79%) | (10) Monoxide 25/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. Last of 5 in minor event chase at Down Royal (19.6f, soft, 25/1) 49 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. Bits and pieces of form but not recently so hard to fancy. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (11/1 -22%) Agirlcalledchloe |
11/1(-22%) | (13) Agirlcalledchloe 11/1, Pulled up in handicap chase at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft, 10/1) 18 days ago (race won by Likable Chancer), pulled up 5 out. Blinkers on 1st time. Penultimate run here gives her a chance if staying; blinkers tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (4) (40/1 -100%) Robin De Roost |
40/1(-100%) | (4) Robin De Roost 40/1, C&D winner. Seventh of 10 in handicap chase (66/1) at Fairyhouse (21.7f, good to soft) 27 days ago. Winner here two years ago but 13yo can only be watched now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (20/1 -100%) So Ladylike |
20/1(-100%) | (12) So Ladylike 20/1, Sixth of 8 in handicap chase at this C&D (heavy, 7/1) 33 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. Way below best here last month on soft; could bounce back on this better ground. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (2) (12/1 -50%) Shantou Sisu |
12/1(-50%) | (2) Shantou Sisu 12/1, C&D winner. Respectable 24 lengths sixth of 13 to Likable Chancer in handicap chase at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft, 25/1) 18 days ago. Enters calculations. Won her last summer; better for recent comeback run but hard to be confident in nowadays. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (9) (33/1 -65%) Grinn |
33/1(-65%) | (9) Grinn 33/1, Remains a maiden after 20 NH runs. Tenth of 15 in handicap chase (33/1) at Thurles (18f, good to soft). Off 6 months. Back from winter break and best form is over much shorter; has her ground though. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (1) (11/1 +8%) Battle Of Benburb |
11/1(+8%) | (1) Battle Of Benburb 11/1, Sixth of 11 in handicap chase at Wexford (25.4f, heavy, 20/1) 35 days ago. Back down in trip. Struggling for form in recent starts; better ground should suit. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (11) (22/1 +27%) Zagnzig |
22/1(+27%) | (11) Zagnzig 22/1, One win from 51 NH runs. Pulled up in handicap hurdle (33/1) at Down Royal (20f, heavy) 49 days ago, losing touch before halfway. Switches from hurdles to chase. Chased home Shantou Sisu here over 2m3f last summer but hasn't completed in 3 runs since. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
3.5/1 (8) LIKABLE CHANCER is expected to do well based on recent form and a career-best win in a handicap chase at Tramore. 8/1 (2) SHANTOU SISU, the C&D winner, is also in the mix after a respectable sixth-place finish in a handicap chase at Tramore. 9/1 (7) FINNIANS ROW looks competitive on form despite remaining a maiden after 20 NH runs. The prediction for the top three finishes is as follows: 1. 3.5/1 (8) LIKABLE CHANCER 2. 8/1 (2) SHANTOU SISU 3. 9/1 (7) FINNIANS ROW
This looks like a weak contest and LIKABLE CHANCER may be able to follow up on his shock win at Tramore. The Gold Well gelding enjoyed bowling along in front then and young Danny Gilligan got a good tune out of him. A 7lb rise for that 33/1 win doesn't look harsh if he can produce a similar effort. Shantou Sisu was a moderate sixth behind the selection last time but is a previous course and distance winner and having slipped a few pounds he is on a competitive mark. Robin De Roost is another previous course and distance winner who may get a bit closer now back at this track.
LIKABLE CHANCER finally opened his account at Tramore recently and, still on a feasible mark despite going up 7 lb for that, he is taken to strike again. Shantou Sisu and Finnians Row, sixth and seventh respectively behind the selection at Tramore, can fill the places. That said, if point/hurdles winner Winnie Woodnutt makes the cut she will certainly be of interest.
Plenty of question marks but a chance is taken on AGIRLCALLEDCHLOE, whose run here last month looks solid form

1st (10) (8/1 +50%) Ocean Legacy |
8/1(+50%) | (10) Ocean Legacy 8/1, Winner in chase at Wexford in March. 16/1, fell in handicap chase at Tramore (21.7f, good to soft) 18 days ago. Not discounted. Tramore faller but bounce back to form can't be ruled out and trip/ground no problem. |

2nd (4) (3.5/1 -17%) Walking The Walk |
3.5/1(-17%) | (4) Walking The Walk 3.5/1, One win from 28 NH runs. Winner in chase at Tramore in December. 5/1, shaped as if still in form fifth of 21 in handicap hurdle at Punchestown (24.4f, heavy) 109 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Respected. C&D second back from a break and handles this ground; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (1) (4/1 -33%) Earths Furies |
4/1(-33%) | (1) Earths Furies 4/1, Eleven runs since last win in 2022. Blinkered for 1st time, good second of 11 in handicap chase (10/1) at Tipperary (23.6f, soft) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Solid claims if he can back that up. Handled better ground well at Tipperary so top-weight respected off 3lb higher. |

4th (9) (20/1 +20%) Camilla's Choice |
20/1(+20%) | (9) Camilla's Choice 20/1, 18/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Kilbeggan (24f, good to soft) 14 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Others are more appealing. Hurdle placings on decent ground last season would give cause for hope on chasing debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (14/1 -75%) Everything Now |
14/1(-75%) | (3) Everything Now 14/1, Sixth of 7 in hunter chase at Down Royal (23.2f, good, 9/2) 12 months. Runner-up in a point last time and makes plenty of appeal back under Rules from a potentially lenient mark. Back from points' and of limited appeal in first handicap chase. |

6th (14) (50/1 -150%) Ciankyle |
50/1(-150%) | (14) Ciankyle 50/1, Ninth of 12 in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (19.4f, good to soft, 50/1) 14 days ago. Up in trip. RESERVE. Recent Kilbeggan comeback run should have brought him on but 12yo opposable; reserve. |

7th (8) (9/1 -29%) Michael's Pick |
9/1(-29%) | (8) Michael's Pick 9/1, C&D winner. One win from 26 NH runs. Cheekpieces on for 1st time, good third of 12 in minor event chase (28/1) at Punchestown (34f, good to soft) 8 days ago. Significantly down in trip. Looks well in if that form is taken on face value. Recent La Touche third having first run in a handicap since July 2021. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (12/1 +25%) Sweet Street |
12/1(+25%) | (2) Sweet Street 12/1, Fourteen runs since last win in 2021. Fairly useful winner at 24f over hurdles. 17/2, fifth of 7 in handicap chase at Clonmel (22.8f, heavy) 29 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Will need to jump better than he did last time and cheekpieces now tried. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (7) (4.5/1 +78%) Cave Court |
4.5/1(+78%) | (7) Cave Court 4.5/1, Sixth of 12 in handicap hurdle at this course (17.8f, heavy, 16/1) 33 days ago. Makes chase debut. Significantly up in trip. Makes handicap chase debut. Fair maiden hurdler but hard to see him making an immediate impact chasing. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|F| (6) (8/1 +68%) Turbojet |
8/1(+68%) | (6) Turbojet 8/1, Seventeen runs since last win in 2020. 10/1, fourth of 8 in handicap chase at this course (19.2f, heavy) 33 days ago. Back up in trip. Something to prove at present. Out of form last season and recent run here leaves him with loads to find. |

|PU| (13) (20/1 -67%) Double Windsor |
20/1(-67%) | (13) Double Windsor 20/1, Unreliable individual. Twelve runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, third of 14 in handicap chase at Kilbeggan (25f, good), keeping on well. Off 8 months. Down to a competitive mark and ground to suit but may need this comeback run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (5) (28/1 -100%) Eagle Terrace |
28/1(-100%) | (5) Eagle Terrace 28/1, Fair winner at 17f over hurdles. Eighth of 13 in handicap chase (28/1) at Punchestown (19.7f, heavy) 110 days ago. Needs to bounce back. 0-4 since going chasing but potential improver now back on better ground. |

|PU| (12) (40/1 +39%) I Can't Remember |
40/1(+39%) | (12) I Can't Remember 40/1, 66/1, pulled up in handicap hurdle at Naas (15.9f, soft) 136 days ago. Switches from hurdles to chase. Significantly back up in trip. Tongue strap back on, cheekpieces back on. Modest over hurdles and fences, pulled up the last twice over hurdles; hard to fancy. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Based on the provided summary, it is difficult to accurately predict which horse will do well in the race and finish in 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place. However, some horses that are mentioned as having solid claims or not being discounted include 3/1 (1) EARTHS FURIES, 12/1 (13) DOUBLE WINDSOR, 16/1 (10) OCEAN LEGACY, 3/1 (4) WALKING THE WALK, and 7/1 (8) MICHAEL'S PICK. The rest of the horses either have questionable recent form or are considered oppositional or hard to fancy. Two horses, 9/1 (15) DONNRUA DREAM and 20/1 (14) CIANKYLE, are listed as reserves. One horse, 14/1 (16) WESTERNERONA, is also listed as a reserve, but is noted as likely needing the debut chase run after being absent since August.
It's interesting to see the cheekpieces back on EARTHS FURIES after he ran so well in first time blinkers at Tipperary last time. The Dylan Thomas gelding was collared late on then when going down by a neck to Positive Thinker. He went up 3lb for that effort but Jack Gilligan eases his top-weight burden. It could be a battle of the Gilligan brothers here with Danny taking the mount on Walking The Walk for boss Gordon Elliott. This Imperial Monarch gelding has had a bit of a break since finish fifth in very testing conditions over hurdles at Punchestown in January. His chase form is stronger and he is entitled to play a big part in this. Elliott also saddles Everything Now, who has been running consistently in point-to-points, and it will be interesting to see how he fares back on the track.
EVERYTHING NOW arrives in good forms from points and is on a potentially favourable mark, so he's marginally preferred to stablemate Walking The Walk. Having excelled himself in a cross-country event at Punchestown last week, Michael's Pick is another obvious player.
Top-weight EARTHS FURIES holds plenty of appeal after a narrow Tipperary defeat over this trip by a progressive type

1st (2) (3/1 +0%) Extrapolation |
3/1(+0%) | (2) Extrapolation 3/1, Twice-raced maiden. Fourth of 11 in bumper at Clonmel (16.6f, heavy, 9/2) 29 days ago. Merits respect. Navan debut promise and Clonmel run just okay; better ground could suit now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (8) (2/1 +56%) Valsorpresa |
2/1(+56%) | (8) Valsorpresa 2/1, Twice-raced maiden. Thirteenth of 21 in novice hurdle (12/1) at Fairyhouse (16f, good to soft) 26 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Shaped well on debut and could make his presence felt if able to bounce back. Twice-raced hurdler a major player on debut Naas run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (1.2/1 +20%) Surf Club |
1.2/1(+20%) | (5) Surf Club 1.2/1, Fame And Glory gelding. Half-brother to useful hurdler/smart chaser Minella Trump and fair hurdler Alright Marlene, stays 3m. Dam unraced. Weats tongue strap. Represents top connections and makes obvious appeal. Tongue tied for belated debut and has to be respected from top yard. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (40/1 +20%) Augusta George |
40/1(+20%) | (1) Augusta George 40/1, Once-raced maiden. Ninth of 10 in bumper at Navan (16f, heavy, 100/1) on NH debut 46 days ago. Hard to make a case for. Hung badly left when well held on Navan debut, having raced prominently; best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (7) (16/1 +36%) The Tiger Tank |
16/1(+36%) | (7) The Tiger Tank 16/1, Once-raced maiden. 11/1, last of 7 in bumper at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft) on NH debut. Off 14 months. First run for yard after leaving J. J. Feane. Likely to struggle. Last of 7 on debut in Leopardstown bumper in March 2022 for Johnny Feane and absent since. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (3) (25/1 -25%) Glentaisie |
25/1(-25%) | (3) Glentaisie 25/1, €5,000 3-y-o, Doyen gelding. Closely related to useful hurdler Florrie Boy and fairly useful hurdler Eat The Book,. Dam unraced. Makes some appeal on pedigree but stable isn't renowned for debut winners. Related to 3 bumper winners but newcomer likely best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
|PU| (6) (50/1 +24%) The Bog Garden |
50/1(+24%) | (6) The Bog Garden 50/1, Twice-raced maiden. 150/1, fourteenth of 23 in novice hurdle at Cork (16f, soft) 166 days ago. Makes bumpers debut. Up against it. Soundly beaten both maiden hurdles last autumn; best watched on return for bumper debut. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
Based on the summary, it seems like 1.5/1 (5) SURF CLUB and 3/1 (2) EXTRAPOLATION are the two strongest contenders, with 4.5/1 (8) VALSORPRESA also having some potential. Therefore, the predicted finishing order would be: 1. 1.5/1 (5) SURF CLUB 2. 3/1 (2) EXTRAPOLATION 3. 4.5/1 (8) VALSORPRESA
A few of these have some decent placed form but it's hard to get away from Willie Mullins in bumpers and it would be no surprise if SURF CLUB made a winning debut. The Fame And Glory gelding makes a belated start at the age of seven and you'd assume he has to be showing something with connections persevering. He is a half-brother to a decent sort in Minella Trump, an 11-time winner. The Gordon Elliott-trained Valsorpresa ran a nice race on his debut when third to Bialystok at Naas in February before finishing mid-division in a strong looking maiden hurdle at Fairyhouse. He could go close now in this company. Isenay was placed in two Ayr bumpers before a disappointing effort at Kelso last time. He is another that has to be considered as does Extrapolation, who has run a couple of nice races in bumpers since winning a point-to-point.
SURF CLUB is related to a smart chaser and is in excellent hands, so he's well worth a chance to make a successful debut. Extrapolation has the best bumper form to date and is feared, while Valsorpresa should be involved if he can put a tame effort behind him.

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.
