1st (7) (66/1 -32%) The Shadow Lingers |
66/1(-32%) | (7) The Shadow Lingers 66/1, Dick Whittington gelding. Half-brother to 2 winners abroad, including Italian winner up to 1¼m Tempesta Rosa. Dam unraced. Gelded for his belated debut and best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (12) (7/4 +30%) Lauroline |
7/4(+30%) | (12) Lauroline 7/4, Showed promise under this rider after 8 months off when third of 14 in maiden at this C&D (9/2) 12 days ago, not knocked about. Can get involved again. May well improve and turn the tables on Gioiella; her lack of a win not that encouraging. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (9/4 +10%) Morse |
9/4(+10%) | (6) Morse 9/4, 14/1, showed improved form 16 months on from his debut when third of 11 in maiden at this course (10.7f) 2 weeks ago, clear of rest. Down in trip. Lots to like. Drop in trip could well suit and looks a leading player here despite a wide draw. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (1) (8/1 -14%) Charlie Brow'n |
8/1(-14%) | (1) Charlie Brow'n 8/1, Bounced back to form after 11 weeks off when fourth of 14 in maiden (33/1) at this course (7f) 19 days ago. Each-way claims. Shaped as though 1m would suit last time and likely to do better this time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (3) (11/1 +45%) Easy Way |
11/1(+45%) | (3) Easy Way 11/1, Fifth of 14 in maiden at this C&D (66/1) a couple of months ago. Will have more chance in handicaps. Progress in three maidens; might have more improvement in him; each-way chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (13) (80/1 -220%) Miss Aytan |
80/1(-220%) | (13) Miss Aytan 80/1, Twice-raced mare on Flat. Went backwards from reappearance when tenth of 14 in maiden at this course (7f, 150/1) 54 days ago, missing break. Soundly beaten in a bumper and two maidens; needs this for a mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (14) (80/1 -60%) Star With A Spark |
80/1(-60%) | (14) Star With A Spark 80/1, Dick Whittington filly. Dam Italian 2-y-o 5f-7f winner out of useful 7f-8.5f winner Miss Trish. Quite speedily-bred but best watched on her somewhat belated debut. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (100/1 -100%) Cyprus Springs |
100/1(-100%) | (2) Cyprus Springs 100/1, 40/1, showed nothing when eleventh of 14 in maiden at this course (10.7f) on debut 3 months ago. Down in trip. Showed modest ability after a slow start over 1m2f here in November; much more needed. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (9) (50/1 -100%) Calmafterthestorm |
50/1(-100%) | (9) Calmafterthestorm 50/1, 100/1, eighth of 11 in maiden at this course (10.7f) on debut 2 weeks ago, merely passing beaten rivals after very slowly away. Down in trip. Totally missed the break on debut over 1m2f here two weeks ago; good run considering. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (5) (66/1 -100%) Little Empire |
66/1(-100%) | (5) Little Empire 66/1, Could hardly have shown any less when thirteenth of 14 in maiden (40/1) at this course (10.7f) on debut 33 days ago. Down in trip. In rear on debut in C&D maiden last month; difficult to make a case for. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (11) (16/5 -28%) Gioiella |
16/5(-28%) | (11) Gioiella 16/5, 9/2, backed up the form she showed on debut for current yard when second of 14 in maiden at this C&D 12 days ago, no match for winner. In the mix again. Just in front of Lauroline over C&D 12 days ago; has a leading chance if able to reproduce. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (8) (125/1 -150%) Vector Belle |
125/1(-150%) | (8) Vector Belle 125/1, Making GB/IRE Flat debut. 200/1 and hooded for 1st time, tailed-off tenth of 12 in bumper at Kilbeggan (15.1f, good to soft) 10 months ago. Tongue strap on for 1st time. Well held over jumps; tongue-tied for Flat debut but makes no appeal on current evidence. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (10) (28/1 +15%) Eirinn Rua |
28/1(+15%) | (10) Eirinn Rua 28/1, Sioux Nation filly. Closely related to useful winner up to 6.3f Stone Circle. Dam, maiden (stayed 10.5f), half-sister to winner up to 1¼m (stayed 1¾m) Valentina Guest and 1m-1¼m winner Bective Ranger (both useful). Wears tongue strap. Tongue-tied for her debut and worth a market check although likely best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (4) (22/1 -214%) Jupiter Rock |
22/1(-214%) | (4) Jupiter Rock 22/1, 250/1, thirteenth of 16 in juvenile hurdle at Naas (15.5f, soft) 17 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Fair on the Flat, below form on last run at the Curragh in September. Cheekpieces tried on his return to the Flat and the stable is in good form; could go well. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
MORSE made a pleasing debut behind Mohawk Chief in an 18-runner Leopardstown maiden last autumn, especially considering he lost ground after getting upset in the stalls and also didn't enjoy a clear run early in the straight. The Charles Weld-trained gelding further enhanced his claims when third to market leaders Squire Danagher and Carlo Bianconi here a fortnight ago, and the drop back to a mile should suit. There is little to choose between Gioiella and Lauroline on running behind Beauty Bella over C&D recently, while Charlie Brow'n finished well over 7f here last month. Jupiter Rock reverts from hurdles and showed some promise for Joseph O'Brien on the Flat last year.
MORSE showed improved form 16 months on from his debut when third over 10.7f here a fortnight ago and with that outing sure to have blown away any cobwebs, Charles Weld's 4-y-o gets the nod over Lauroline, who shaped with promise under this rider when third over C&D on return earlier this month. Gioiella and Jupiter Rock are another couple not out of things.
The one to be on though should be MORSE who showed he retained his ability over 1m2f here last time and will appreciate the drop in trip

1st (1) (4/1 +20%) Riyami |
4/1(+20%) | (1) Riyami 4/1, Creditable fifth of 23 in handicap hurdle at Leopardstown (16f, good to soft, 22/1) 50 days ago. Had been improving when last seen on the Flat in late 2023. Up 16lb in total for two C&D wins but certainly respected with the stable in good form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (2) (22/1 -57%) Rockview Consort |
22/1(-57%) | (2) Rockview Consort 22/1, Course winner. One win from 3 runs last year. Creditable seventh of 13 in handicap (20/1) at this course (12f) 33 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Mid-division over 1m4f here last month; could still be interesting off this mark. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (11) (25/1 -25%) Figurehead |
25/1(-25%) | (11) Figurehead 25/1, Creditable 2 lengths seventh of 14 to Gains of War in handicap at this C&D (50/1) 26 days ago, never nearer. Blinkers on for 1st time. Good run last time; another new headgear combination tried here and could run ino a place. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (5/4 +64%) Secret Rock |
5/4(+64%) | (4) Secret Rock 5/4, Justified support when winning 14-runner handicap at this course (12f) 26 days ago, having to pick way through. Will stay 2m and looks capable of following up. Yet to try this trip on the Flat but clearly a player if he can last it out. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (9) (40/1 -100%) Firm Belief |
40/1(-100%) | (9) Firm Belief 40/1, Winner at Navan in October and wasn't disgraced when 5¾ lengths thirteenth of 14 to Gains of War in handicap at this C&D (11/1) 26 days ago. Down 4lb now but remains to be seen whether that will be enough; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (6) (66/1 -164%) Rodney Bay |
66/1(-164%) | (6) Rodney Bay 66/1, Latest win at the Curragh in October but ran no sort of race when last of 14 in handicap at this course (12f, 66/1) 61 days ago. Significantly up in trip. Has work to do. Well beaten in a handicap hurdle and a 1m4f handicap here last twice; others preferred. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (10) (12/1 +14%) Crystal Caves |
12/1(+14%) | (10) Crystal Caves 12/1, Creditable ¾-length fifth of 14 to Gains of War in handicap (7/1) at this C&D 26 days ago. Cheekpieces back on. Not taken lightly. Back to form when only beaten a length in a C&D handicap last month; respected. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (12) (13/2 -8%) Circus Act |
13/2(-8%) | (12) Circus Act 13/2, Blinkered for 1st time, good second of 18 in handicap hurdle (16/1) at Naas (19.1f, soft) 33 days ago. Booking of Heffernan a plus. Blinkers on for 1st time on the Flat. Another bold show likely. Just failed to get up in a 2m3f handicap hurdle at Naas last month; should go close. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (13) (12/1 +25%) Alex The Great |
12/1(+25%) | (13) Alex The Great 12/1, 11/2, ninth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 12 days ago, slowly away. Significantly back up in trip. Close third to Gains Of War over C&D last month; certainly respected on that form. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (3) (40/1 -100%) Effernock Fizz |
40/1(-100%) | (3) Effernock Fizz 40/1, Nineteen runs since last win in 2021. 20/1, ninth of 10 in handicap hurdle at Ffos Las (15.8f, good to soft) 122 days ago. Has been given a chance by the assessor back in this code. Well beaten in a Ffos Las handicap hurdle in October when last seen; best watched foe now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (7) (20/1 -300%) Sweet Will |
20/1(-300%) | (7) Sweet Will 20/1, Fairly useful winner at 20f in chases but ran poorly at Doncaster (24f, good, 17/2) 18 days ago. Lightly raced in this sphere. Flat form is patchy but could be well-treated off this mark and well worth a market check. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (14) (25/1 -56%) Honketonk Angel |
25/1(-56%) | (14) Honketonk Angel 25/1, C&D winner in November and ran at least as well when 1¼ lengths sixth of 14 to Gains of War in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. Beat Circus Act over C&D in November; should be thereabouts if running to the same level. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (5) (9/1 -80%) Ellaat |
9/1(-80%) | (5) Ellaat 9/1, Latest win at Gowran in October. Creditable third of 16 in handicap hurdle (9/4) at Punchestown (16.5f, soft) 90 days ago. Cheekpieces on 1st time. Fair on the Flat, good on last Flat outing. Likely to run well again. Cheekpieces tried here and likely to go well if the market speaks favourably. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (8) (33/1 -136%) Mephisto |
33/1(-136%) | (8) Mephisto 33/1, C&D winner. 16/1, fell in handicap hurdle at Down Royal (16.9f, good to soft) 166 days ago. Off since. Fair on the all weather, creditable on last Flat run. Out of form and not seen since falling in a Down Royal handicap hurdle in September. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
CIRCUS ACT was having her first Flat start in over a year when beaten half a length by Honketonk Angel over C&D in November and the James Nash-trained mare, who had to race alone towards the far side inside the final furlong, can reverse the places on these revised terms. She went close on her only subsequent start when just failing to peg back American Money over hurdles at Naas last month. Secret Rock kept on well to justify good support over 1m4f here last month, while Riyami and Ellaat are two other dual-purpose geldings to consider. The second reserve Gains Of War had a number of these rivals behind when scoring over C&D last month, including Alex The Great, Crystal Caves and Honketonk Angel, who were close up in third, fifth and sixth respectively.
SECRET ROCK was value for a bit extra over the result when winning at this venue last month having had to pick his way through early in the straight, so he looks capable of defying a 5 lb rise, especially with the longer trip expected to suit. Circus Act and Ellaat arrive on the back of good runs over hurdles and head the opposition.
The choice is CIRCUS ACT(nap), narrowly beaten over C&D in November before another narrow defeat over hurdles at Naas

1st (4) (11/2 +54%) Theriverrunsdeep |
11/2(+54%) | (4) Theriverrunsdeep 11/2, 3-time C&D winner. Latest win here in December. Eighth of 10 in handicap (6/1) at this C&D 14 days ago. Closely matched with Below Deck on her penultimate run, outside draw could be a negative.. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (11) (10/1 +0%) My Girl Sioux |
10/1(+0%) | (11) My Girl Sioux 10/1, Remains a maiden after 20 Flat runs. 10/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, creditable 2¼ lengths fourth of 14 to Phil's Dream in handicap at this course (5f) 19 days ago. Two fourth placings at this venue lately have been over 5f, perhaps not as good at 6f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (5) (13/2 -30%) Phil's Dream |
13/2(-30%) | (5) Phil's Dream 13/2, 50/1, won 14-runner handicap at this course (5f) 19 days ago by nose from Below Deck, meeting trouble before keeping on to lead post. Claims if able to back that up here from 4 lb higher mark. Beat today's rival Below Deck by a nose over 5f two weeks ago, high draw a concern. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (9) (18/1 -29%) Clarinbridge |
18/1(-29%) | (9) Clarinbridge 18/1, First run since leaving Noel C. Kelly when creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, 28/1) 14 days ago. Needs a couple of these to falter. 0-16 on AW, two 7f wins on turf, good run here a fortnight ago was over 7f. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (6) (3/1 +63%) Hero Of The Hour |
3/1(+63%) | (6) Hero Of The Hour 3/1, 3-time C&D winner. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (7f, 11/2) 14 days ago. Can give a good account without posing serious threat to principals. All three wins gained over C&D here in the early months of last year, each-way chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (11/4 -10%) Below Deck |
11/4(-10%) | (7) Below Deck 11/4, 3/1, good nose second of 14 to Phil's Dream in handicap at this course (5f) 19 days ago. Has good chance on form. Drawn 14 when beaten a nose by Phils's Dream last time, may take advantage of low draw now. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (1) (8/1 -14%) No Speed Limit |
8/1(-14%) | (1) No Speed Limit 8/1, 4-time course winner. Latest win here in November. 9/2, best not judged on the run when 3¼ lengths sixth of 14 to Phil's Dream in handicap at this course (5f) 19 days ago, missing break. Can make presence felt. Solid overall record at this venue, in good form lately, stumbled at the start last time. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
9th (8) (20/1 +0%) Adams Barbour |
20/1(+0%) | (8) Adams Barbour 20/1, 7-time course winner. 7 lengths twelfth of 14 to Phil's Dream in handicap at this course (5f, 16/1) 19 days ago, stumbling soon after start and never involved. Still, others preferred for win purposes on balance. Losing run goes back to a course hat trick in January/February 2022, plenty to find. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
10th (10) (80/1 -220%) Florence Thompson |
80/1(-220%) | (10) Florence Thompson 80/1, Remains a maiden after 46 Flat runs. Seventh of 8 in maiden at this course (5f, 200/1) 14 days ago. Now a 46-race maiden; has been struggling in maidens, this affords her a better chance. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
11th (12) (40/1 -60%) Patsy Fagan |
40/1(-60%) | (12) Patsy Fagan 40/1, 22/1, fifteenth of 16 in handicap at Cork (6f, good) in July, racing off the pace and never dangerous. Absent subsequently and market may prove best guide. Six-time winner in Britain, has been regressive in various yards since coming to Ireland. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
12th (3) (66/1 -230%) The Stray Sod |
66/1(-230%) | (3) The Stray Sod 66/1, 25/1, thirteenth of 16 in handicap at Gowran (7f, good to soft). Off 8 months. Never in first three, fourth of seven 13 months ago her best effort; lacks a recent run. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
13th (16) (66/1 -32%) Gianh River |
66/1(-32%) | (16) Gianh River 66/1, Lightly-raced maiden. First run since leaving S. M. Duffy when tenth of 14 in maiden at this course (7f, 150/1) 19 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Has work to do. Reserve 2. Second reserve, weak form in five starts, faded on recent stable debut, up against it. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
14th (14) (16/1 -14%) Zig Zag Zyggy |
16/1(-14%) | (14) Zig Zag Zyggy 16/1, Course winner. Twelfth of 14 in handicap (9/1) at this C&D 29 days ago, weakening over 1f out. Others have achieved more. Second to Jazzy Dancer over C&D in December, not as good on two more recent visits. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HERO OF THE HOUR won three times over C&D early last year and has been generally consistent this winter, dropping down to an attractive mark. The seven-year-old gelding didn't have much luck in running last time over 7f and hopefully there is enough pace on to set him up for a strong finish. Phil's Dream caused a 50/1 shock when getting up on the line to pip the admirably consistent Below Deck over the minimum trip last month, with a number of these rivals including No Speed Limit, who stumbled leaving the stalls, further behind. No Speed Limit had Jazzy Dancer a length back in third when narrowly denied previously over this trip, but both need to overcome wide draws here.
BELOW DECK again went agonisingly close to breaking her duck when reeled in late by re-opposing Phil's Dream over the minimum trip here 3 weeks ago and with the step back up to 6f holding no fears, she could be up to reversing those placings on these revised terms. No Speed Limit and the aforementioned Phil's Dream are others to consider. Jazzy Dancer is another in the mix.
The consistent BELOW DECK has a good chance of exploiting the number one berth.

1st (1) (8/13 +62%) Andalusian Star |
8/13(+62%) | (1) Andalusian Star 8/13, Invincible Spirit filly. 14/1, offered something to work on when seventh of 10 in maiden at Leopardstown (7.3f, good) on debut in July. In good hands and likely she can do better now embarking on 3-y-o campaign. Respected with cheekpieces now enlisted. Decent pedigree, ran only once at two, trainer should have a good idea of what is required. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2nd (5) (11/4 -99%) Pepper Noir |
11/4(-99%) | (5) Pepper Noir 11/4, Outstrip filly who improved on debut form when second of 13 in maiden at this course (1m) 12 days ago, no match for winner. Rates a live player with a repeat. Promising second over 1m 12 days ago though beaten 5l by stablemate of Andalusian Star. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (6) (11/2 +21%) Posh Maisie |
11/2(+21%) | (6) Posh Maisie 11/2, Dandy Man filly. 33/1 and tongue strap on, eighth of 10 in minor event at this course (6f) on debut 29 days ago, missing break and never dangerous. That experience ought not to have been wasted on her. Lost ground at the start when 33-1 on 6f debut here last month, extra furlong should help. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (4) (7/1 -17%) Mm Dragonfly |
7/1(-17%) | (4) Mm Dragonfly 7/1, Once-raced filly. Sixth of 14 in maiden (10/1) at this course (8f) on debut 33 days ago, keeping on without being unduly punished. Type to do better, particularly in handicaps. Stayed on into midfield over 1m here on debut, shorter trip may not be ideal. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
5th (8) (100/1 -203%) Waystar |
100/1(-203%) | (8) Waystar 100/1, Twice-raced filly. 150/1, thirteenth of 14 in maiden at this C&D 19 days ago. Can only be watched. Finished behind Pepper Noir on debut, failed to improve last time when never involved. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
6th (7) (22/1 -10%) Varly |
22/1(-10%) | (7) Varly 22/1, €5,000 yearling, Churchill filly. Dam 2-y-o 5f/6f winner who stayed 1m. Wears hood. Winning dam out of a winning half-sister to a couple of Listed 7f scorers, hooded. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (3) (100/1 -300%) Layoftheland |
100/1(-300%) | (3) Layoftheland 100/1, Once-raced filly. 80/1, showed a bit when tenth of 14 in maiden at Listowel (6.3f, good to soft) on debut back in June. Absent since though and low-grade handicaps likely to be more her bag in due course. Dropped away in the final furlong of a Listowel maiden last September, best watched. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (2) (150/1 -127%) Get Your Groove On |
150/1(-127%) | (2) Get Your Groove On 150/1, Twice-raced filly. 250/1, thirteenth of 14 in maiden at this course (8f) 33 days ago, weakening early in the straight. Can only be watched. Has finished with only one rival behind her on both starts, safe to rule out. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
POSH MAISIE was slowly away on debut and showed her inexperience before keeping on one-paced in the straight in the race won by Perfect Judgement here last month. That 6f event has been working out quite well since and with the benefit of that run and this extra furlong, she should put up a bold show. Pepper Noir had a couple of these behind when showing promise on debut just before Christmas and then beat all bar hotpot Nerano over a mile earlier this month. Mm Dragonfly was noted keeping on in mid-division on debut over a mile last month and looks sure to progress from that experience, while Andalusian Star is another who could take a big step forward from her debut at Leopardstown last summer. Any market move for Varly would be interesting.
ANDALUSIAN STAR appeals on paper and offered something to work on when seventh in a Leopardstown maiden back in July. In good hands and open to improvement, she could be worth siding with to take a step forward on return. Pepper Noir looks a big threat following her second here 12 days ago, with Posh Maisie completing the shortlist.
Joseph O'Brien saddled the 5l winner of the maiden in which Pepper Noir was second 12 days ago and can score with Andalusian Star

1st (1) (1/3 +34%) Beautiful Dawn |
1/3(+34%) | (1) Beautiful Dawn 1/3, Twice-raced winner. 6/5, won 14-runner maiden at this course (8f) 33 days ago, driven out. Type to go on improving and likely to add to her tally on handicap debut. Comfortable winner over C&D on second outing, can give weight to two maidens here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1st (2) (6/1 +0%) Rebelsontherun |
6/1(+0%) | (2) Rebelsontherun 6/1, Lightly-raced maiden. 25/1 and cheekpieces on for 1st time, bit below form fifth of 13 in maiden at this C&D 63 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Not dismissed. Has shown a fair level of form in 7f maidens but does not appear progressive. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3rd (3) (4/1 -45%) Blue Soul |
4/1(-45%) | (3) Blue Soul 4/1, Lightly-raced maiden. Respectable sixth of 10 in handicap (5/1) at this course (8f) 19 days ago. Looks the danger to Beautiful Dawn. Rider's claim should give her a fighting chance against the less exposed Beautiful Dawn. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
A disappointing turnout of just three runners for this three-year-old handicap and BEAUTIFUL DAWN may prove difficult to beat. The Joseph O'Brien-trained filly took a nice step forward from her debut over 6f to justify favouritism in a mile maiden here last month. The daughter of Starspangledbanner was prominent throughout to win with a bit in hand and shouldn't be inconvenienced by this drop back in distance. Blue Soul has probably shown her best form over this C&D, including when a close third to Enchanted Garden in a handicap on her penultimate outing. Rebelsontherun also showed some promise here over 7f when keeping on behind Seti, but may not have appreciated cheekpieces when ridden more prominently last time.
BEAUTIFUL DAWN stepped forward from her debut to open her account at this course a month ago and a mark of 78 probably underestimates her, so she's preferred to Blue Soul.
C&D winner BEAUTIFUL DAWN does not seem harshly treated with an opening mark of 78 and should cope with the two maidens

1st (4) (2/1 +67%) Neddies Boy |
2/1(+67%) | (4) Neddies Boy 2/1, 11/2 and blinkered for 1st time, good fifth of 14 in claimer at this course (10.7f) 19 days ago. First run for yard after leaving R. P. Burns. Not taken lightly. Debuts for Ray Cody here with a top rider booked; signs are good for a big run. |

2nd (9) (14/1 -17%) Hinemoa |
14/1(-17%) | (9) Hinemoa 14/1, C&D winner. 16/1, creditable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago. Can make presence felt. Second over 1m2f in December but below form last twice; comes into it if back to her best. |

3rd (11) (10/1 -82%) Anjah |
10/1(-82%) | (11) Anjah 10/1, Remains a maiden after 28 Flat runs. 20/1, creditable fourth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f) 12 days ago. Not ruled out. Decent effort over 1m2f last time but is a 28-race maiden and could find a couple too good. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4th (3) (11/2 -38%) Darkened |
11/2(-38%) | (3) Darkened 11/2, Two wins from 50 Flat runs. 7/1, very good second of 14 in claimer at this course (10.7f) 19 days ago, nearest finish. First run for yard after leaving Denis Hogan. Expected to be bang there. Debuts for Noel Kelly here and could go well but patchy form over the trip. |

5th (1) (9/2 +36%) Alphonse Le Grande |
9/2(+36%) | (1) Alphonse Le Grande 9/2, Course winner. Tongue strap on for 1st time, respectable seventh of 14 in handicap at this C&D (20/1) 61 days ago. Merits consideration. Ran okay over C&D last time but doesn't look well treated at present. |

6th (5) (11/1 -83%) Nusra |
11/1(-83%) | (5) Nusra 11/1, C&D winner. Latest win here in November. 7/1, creditable sixth of 13 in handicap at this C&D 54 days ago. Shortlisted. Up 9lb for November win which probably told last time and could do so again here. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
7th (2) (14/1 +0%) Curious Bride |
14/1(+0%) | (2) Curious Bride 14/1, One win from 26 Flat runs. Nineteen runs since last win in 2020. Twelfth of 13 in handicap (16/1) at this C&D 54 days ago. Can give a good account if shrugging off latest effort. Disappointed over C&D before Christmas but respected if that can be forgiven. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
8th (14) (17/2 +29%) Sunny Dude |
17/2(+29%) | (14) Sunny Dude 17/2, Lightly-raced maiden. Creditable fourth of 14 in handicap (20/1) at this course (10.7f) 29 days ago. Considered. Step up in trip might well suit and has enough scope for improvement up in trip. |

9th (12) (33/1 -106%) Dr Patrick |

Cheekpieces back on. Others have achieved more. Sole win in 24 starts came over 1m2f here but looks best watched after a year off. |

10th (13) (16/1 -60%) Wojood |

11th (10) (50/1 -213%) Angel In The Sky |
50/1(-213%) | (10) Angel In The Sky 50/1, C&D winner. 33/1, thirteenth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 26 days ago so needs to bounce back. Soundly beaten in two handicaps after 10 months off; makes little appeal at present. |

12th (6) (25/1 -25%) Highland Train |
25/1(-25%) | (6) Highland Train 25/1, Thrice-raced maiden. Seventh of 12 in maiden at this C&D (150/1) 77 days ago. Makes handicap debut. Something to find on form. Showed some ability on his third maiden run over C&D last time; best watched. |

28/1(-75%) | (8) Mille Miglia 28/1, Tenth of 14 in handicap (33/1) at this C&D 26 days ago. Blinkers on 1st time. Mild promise stepping up to 2m before finishing down the field over C&D last month. |

66/1(-164%) | (15) Sioux Grit 66/1, Pulled up in novice hurdle at Fairyhouse (20f, heavy, 250/1) on NH debut 21 days ago. Modest on the Flat, so has work to do. RESERVE First reserve; modest form and pulled up in a maiden hurdle latest; others preferred. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
HINEMOA won twice over C&D early last year and has given encouragement that she can add to that tally here this winter. The lightly-raced eight-year-old was just denied by Rhythm And Tyne in December and kept on behind Secret Rock last time. Anjah is still a maiden after 28 starts, but merits respect on his second to Satono Chevalier in this corresponding race 12 months ago and has shaped well on both starts this winter. Darkened had Neddies Boy a length and a half behind when runner-up to Sky Legend over an extended 10 furlongs last month and both horses have been claimed into different yards since. Alphonse Le Grande, Curious Bride and Nusra are others to consider.
Lots with chances but DARKENED signalled he's ready to end a losing run when a very good recent second here so edges the vote. C&D winner Hinemoa is feared most with Neddies Boy and Alphonse Le Grande also in the mix.
The one to beat should be NEDDIES BOY on his first start for Ray Cody with Dylan Browne McMonagle booked

7th (9) (20/1 -150%) Power Drive |
20/1(-150%) | (9) Power Drive 20/1, 3-time C&D winner. Seventeen runs since last win in 2022. Creditable fifth of 14 in handicap at this course (10.7f, 14/1) 12 days ago, would have benefited from stronger handling. Not ruled out.

The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
ST CIANANS FIRE won three times in the space of 10 weeks for John McConnell, including twice at this venue, back in 2022 and the six-year-old gelding made a bright start for Shane Crawley over C&D last month when beating all bar Secret Rock. Wishes And Dreams is an obvious threat following a series of placed efforts since sent handicapping here this winter. She makes a quick reappearance after only going down by a neck to the selection's well-backed stablemate Dreams Fled Away last Friday. Five-time course winner Power Drive normally sets the pace, but was patiently ridden when staying on well behind Together Acclaim earlier this month. Others for the shortlist include Gracesolution and Kiwi Kiss.
WISHES AND DREAMS made a promising start for her new yard when runner-up over C&D and can build on it to get off the mark. Gracesolution didn't enjoy the rub of the green when fifth here last time and is next on the list while St Cianans Fire, Nevada Brave and Lucky Question all need factoring into this very open handicap too.
Preference is for ST CIANANS FIRE after a fine effort over C&D last month and with the stable among the winners

6th (5) (50/1 -317%) Bright Start |
50/1(-317%) | (5) Bright Start 50/1, Thirteen runs since last win in 2021. Fifth of 6 in handicap (9/2) at Lingfield (10f, good to firm). Off 7 months. First run for yard after leaving Saeed Bin Suroor. Worth a market check. 1-19 for Godolphin, out of sorts in 2022, no sign of a revival in 2023, career-low mark. |

7th (7) (20/1 -25%) Pachmena |
20/1(-25%) | (7) Pachmena 20/1, C&D winner. Two wins from 42 Flat runs. 20/1, ninth of 14 in handicap at this C&D 14 days ago, slowly away. Others make more appeal. C&D winner, better recent form has come over 1m4f, held by Emeric on running two weeks ago. |

Fairly useful on the Flat, creditable on last Flat outing. Merits consideration. Winner on good ground for Joseph O'Brien, should cope with surface but lacks a recent run. |
The chart reads from right to left to today's race.
EMERIC won twice over C&D last spring and was also on the mark over a mile at Leopardstown in July. The Paul Flynn-trained gelding has returned to the Polytrack this winter and had a number of these rivals behind when third to Unterberg a fortnight ago. Yokkell has done well since joining John McConnell last autumn, winning twice at this venue, and despite a combined rise of 10lb in the ratings, filled the runner-up spot behind War Correspondent earlier this month. Roman Bull was second a couple of times here last spring and also won over 1m4f in July. It will be interesting to see how strong he is in the market after a seven-month break, while Garrick Painter won over C&D on his penultimate start.
YOKKELL found one too good in her hat-trick bid last time but she wasn't seen to best effect and this thriving mare is worth a chance to resume winning ways in the hope that the pace is solid. Seattle Creek is a major player if ready to go following a year off the track and Emeric can't be ruled out.
Twice successful over C&D last spring, EMERIC looks poised to add to his tally having finished close up in third here a fortnight ago

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.
