16:40 Dundalk Handicap 5f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

A cracking sprint handicap to get the card under way. INISHMOT PRINCE and James Ryan are a formidable partnership on the Polytrack with nine victories accrued including six over this trip. He is up to a career-high mark of 86, but could defy that on his way to a possible crack at finals day of the All-Weather Championships at Newcastle. Billboa is really going the right way having won his last two races in Dundalk and he should be more than competitive off his mark. Maggie McGrath was just pipped by a nose by Inishmot Prince over C&D last month, so she has to rate a significant threat. Musical Tribute is running consistently well and hasn't been beaten far in his last three spins on the Polytrack, so should be in there pitching. Harry's Hill is a more than decent sprinter, particularly on turf, but he may just need this run having been off since October.

MUSICAL TRIBUTE was unlucky not to win over 6f here 3 weeks ago and can come out on top if carrying on in the same sort of form. Inishmot Prince is a big player again, while Arnhem may be set for another good performance first time back.

Very competitive with slight preference for BILLBOA, who could still have more improvement in him than most of these

17:15 Dundalk Claimer 11f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

JAAFEL has the ability to land this claimer. He has moved to Sean Davis, who is bidding for his first victory in the training ranks, after regularly picking up prize money for James McAuley. He landed a C&D handicap in October and kept on for fourth when last seen in a claimer here in December. Incredibly, Denis Hogan is due to saddle half of the 14 runners. The most interesting of his squad could turn out to be Edge Of Darkness who won a seller at Musselburgh in October for Charlie Johnston. This is his Irish debut after winning four times in Britain. Hasten Slowly is far from advantaged at the weights, but is one that could run into a place over a trip she likes. S'all Good Man and Snag It are others to consider.

A trappy claimer but EDGE OF DARKNESS holds a good chance on these terms starting out for a new yard and gets the tentative vote. S'all Good Man and Jaafel head up the dangers, with Bright Start another worth monitoring with a recent run under his belt.

Denis Hogan empties the bench here as he supplies half the field, and he might just have the answer here with BRIGHT START

17:50 Dundalk Handicap 11f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

EMERIC wouldn't be winning out of turn. Paul Flynn's charge was a close third on his last couple of starts over C&D and Jack Kearney's 5lb claim has him on an appealing mark. This son of Elusive Pimpernel knows where the winning post is in Dundalk having won twice here before. Firstman would prefer more of a trip, but he has to be feared coming off a break. He was running in very valuable handicaps back in May and June and has banked five victories during his career including three at this venue. Walhaan won over C&D in November and should be one of the leading protagonists after running well for a long way over hurdles in Leopardstown at Christmas.

It good be worth chancing JUNGLE COVE, who starts the new season off a potentially good mark. Emeric went close to resuming winning ways over C&D last month and is the obvious threat, with Walhaan and Firstman completing the shortlist.

EMERIC has strong recent form and won twice over C&D this time last year and could take plenty of beating

18:20 Dundalk Handicap 12f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

Plenty of chances in an open race, and WISHES AND DREAMS might be worth siding with. This Highland Reel filly was placed twice for Joseph O'Brien and made a promising start to life with Ciaran Murphy when beaten by a neck over C&D last month. Dreams Fled Away has been strong over this trip in winning his last two races. The handicapper has had his say, however, he looks set for a big run for Shane Crawley. Neddies Boy rallied to win by a head over C&D last month and has escaped with a 2lb rise, so should be heavily involved. Highland King is a big, powerful horse who made the breakthrough last week. It is reasonable to assume there is more to come, but an 11lb rise makes things trickier for him. Moondharrig is in very good form with two victories and a runner-up berth banked in his last three runs. He is up in trip for this assignment, though.

The vote goes to HINEMOA, who was just touched off by Neddies Boy over C&D last month and it while it shoud be close between them once again, Mark Cahill's charge remains on a workable mark and is taken to reverse those placings. Moondharrig is also taken to turn the tables on a rival he was beaten by here last week, namely Highland King, while the hat-trick seeking Dreams Fled Away is also accorded respect.

The one with most scope for improvement could well be NEDDIES BOY and he can follow up his narrow success last month

18:50 Dundalk Handicap 8f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

ARBAAWI rewarded Tom McCourt's faith when victorious over C&D last month and has a shot at following up. He races off a rating of 62, with James Ryan's claim factored in, which is 3lb lower than his last winning mark in Britain so there should be a bit of scope for improvement. Hurricane Helen was a shade unlucky in third behind Arbaawi in that aforementioned race, but she sandwiched that run with two successes over C&D. Champion jockey Colin Keane stays loyal and she has to enter calculations. Relevant Range was sharper on her second run off a break and isn't one to ignore from a good draw. Lauroline has been placed in no less than seven of her 11 races including six times in maidens at Dundalk. Another solid run is more than probable.

FEATURE THIS boasts an excellent record here so gets the vote in a very open contest. Fellow C&D scorers Relevant Range and Arbaawi both bring solid credentials to the table too and can chase home Paul Flynn's mare in that order,

This could go to RELEVANT RANGE, a better horse on this surface and should go close back to this trip

19:20 Dundalk Handicap 7f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

I BID YOU AJOU can make an impact in his first handicap. He was keen in his last two races here yet, to his credit, he wasn't beaten overly far when unplaced in both. His third place over C&D in December showed what he is capable of. The first-time hood should help him settle. The way Coulstar finished for third in the closing stages of a 6f handicap at this track last month bodes well for her first attempt at this trip. Runner-up Masonbrook Meadow gave Conor Whiteley a good spin on the jockey's first ride in a claimer last week. She was nicely clear of third-placed Cool Dan who also comes back for more, while The Poacher Daly was placed in one of his five spins here and is another that could benefit from a hood being fitted.

THE POACHER DALY had a ready excuse here last time and can be given another chance to confirm the promise of his handicap debut second prior to that. Colin Keane takes the reins on Michael O'Callaghan handicap newcomer I Bid You Ajou and this son of Shalaa is second choice ahead of Coulstar.

Plenty with chances, notably last week's C&D claimer second MASONBROOK MEADOW, who was left with plenty to do

19:50 Dundalk Stakes 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

This looks a good starting point for the 98-rated SHE'S QUALITY. Jack Davison, who has been among the winners over the winter at Dundalk, pitched her into Group 1 races after she landed a valuable maiden at Newbury in August during her juvenile campaign. She didn't trouble the judge on either occasion, but is clearly well thought of having finished fourth in a Group 3 at the Curragh on just her second start. She is nicely in at the weights for her all-weather debut. Tarsus took a notable scalp when winning over C&D last month. He should be a tough opponent and has the advantage of of being well versed on the Polytrack in addition to race fitness. Jakajaro also had a notable juvenile season and put in a string of decent efforts. He was an easy winner of a nursery at the Curragh in July and is an interesting Polytrack debutant.

SHE'S QUALITY posesses much the best form on show so is fancied to return in style and bag a second success. Tarsus appeals as the one to chase home Jack Davison's filly ahead of fellow C&D winner Genesis.

Preference is for the in-form TARSUS to hold off the higher-rated AW debutante She's Quality

20:20 Dundalk Handicap 6f Race Speed Rating Flow

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

The booking of Colin Keane for HEZAHUNK looks significant. Blinkers brought about an improved performance when he just failed by a nose to catch the winner over this trip at the start of the month. With the blinkers retained, this could be the night he gets off the mark. Prominent-racer Jazzy Dancer has every chance of grabbing his third career success as he's holding his form well. American In Paris is on an attractive mark and signalled that another victory may not be far away when third over the minimum trip last week. James Ryan takes 5lb off Clarinbridge's back and this filly has performed creditably in fourth in her last two appearances. Cherry Bloom is coming down the weights while Phil's Dream is another capable of a big run. Blinkers are tried on Havana Notion who is far from out of contention.

JAZZY DANCER has been in top form lately and, from an excellent draw, he's worth a chance to gain some reward in a race where most look averagely handicapped. Hezahunk is an obvious danger if he matches the form he showed in a claimer last time and American In Paris is a dangerous one to rule out.

Preference is for HEZAHUNK (nap), touched off in a claimer here in blinkers last time and with the ideal draw for a front-runner

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.
